YOUNGSTOWN — Police reports say officers found $128 and a bag of suspected heroin on Charles Peter Greenwalt, 54, of Youngstown, who was pulled over about 8:50 a.m. Tuesday for having a cracked windshield.
Reports said when Greenwalt got out of his car after being pulled over on Market Street, he threw something under the tire, which was a lottery ticket containing a packet of suspected heroin.
Officers found the cash at the scene, and when Greenwalt was booked into the Mahoning County jail, corrections officers found an additional $200 hidden in his shoes, reports said.

This is more of an informative post than anything.
A couple of weeks ago, my daughter developed a TERRIBLE rash all over her face, neck, ears and head. Some part of the rash were even oozy and had yellow crust on it. My doctor told me it was baby acne (which I didn't believe) and would go away on it's own. It got way worse after that. After doing my own online research I realized it was seborrhea and asked a different doctor for a second opinion. She diagnosed it as seborrhea and told me it would go away on it's own. Well I refused to wait it out. After more online research I decided to bathe her in Aquaphor baby wash and I applied 1% hydrocortisone all over the rash (even on her face, careful to avoid her eyes)...in less than 24 hours the rash is literally 95% gone and my baby is back to beautiful!

Since early childhood we have been taught to follow the popular "5-a-Day" nutrition program. Citizens of the United States, Norway, Germany, New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom have followed this program to form the healthy habit of consuming at least five portions of fruits and vegetables daily.
Fruits and vegetables not only taste great, but each fruit also offers "condition specific" health benefits based upon the unique makeup of the phytochemicals naturally found in each fruit. Due to modern research technology we now have a better understanding why each fruit offers condition specific health benefits.
For example, did you know that Michigan-grown, Montmorency tart cherries help to fight joint pain due to arthritis and gout? Or that blueberries help maintain healthy brain function, and the pomegranate helps maintain a healthy heart?
These types of foods are considered nutraceuticals. A nutraceutical is traditionally defined as "a food or dietary supplement that offers a medical or a health benefit". To effectively educate consumers about nutraceuticals and the health benefits of fruits, the term "Fruitceutical" was first coined in 2005 by Andy LaPointe.
What is a Fruitceutical?
What does the term "fruitceutical" really mean? The term Fruitceutical refers to the combination of fruit and pharmaceuticals. Fruitceuticals are fruit-based products with biologically active ingredients that provide condition-specific natural health benefits.
Fruitceuticals focus on the important fact that a specific fruit's effectiveness is based on the WHOLE fruit, not one specific compound or chemical. A fruitceutical product focuses on the synergistic benefits of all of the compounds working together within the fruit to deliver the natural health benefits of the underlying fruit.

For example, the combination of compounds in tart cherries are shown to focus on the joints and help to reduce joint pain, while the combination of chemicals in blueberries work in the brain area to strengthen neuron connections resulting in better brain function. So, a fruitceutical is about the optimum benefits delivered by the specific whole fruit rather than the presence of simply one compound in the fruit.
To better educate the consumer, a Fruitceutical can be divided into categories based upon their condition specific health benefits.
Here is a brief overview of just a few types of fruit that offer condition specific benefits.
Joint Related Anti-inflammatory Benefits:
•Montmorency Tart Cherries
Weight Loss and Metabolism Related:
•Raspberry Ketones
•Garcinia Cambogia
Brain Health Related:
•Wild blueberries
Heart and Cardiovascular Health:
Combining Whole Fruit and Fruit Supplements for a Healthy Lifestyle
Taking the concept of condition-specific health benefits of fruit one step further - if you can't get whole fruit in your diet, the next step would be to seek out a pesticide-free, all-natural fruitceutical supplement. The benefit of a whole-fruit supplement is the delivery of condition-specific benefits of the underlying fruit in an easy-swallow capsule or fruit powder.
A fruitceutical also provides the benefit of the underlying fruit in a concentrated form. For example, if you're looking for natural arthritis relief, one daily serving of the Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry Joint Formula delivers the specific anti-oxidant benefit of drinking 5 glasses of the Montmorency tart cherry juice. If you aren't able to drink five glasses of cherry juice daily, the Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry fruitceutical would be an excellent choice for natural joint pain relief.

Look, up in the sky. It's a bird. It's a storm. No, it's giant rocks that will rain on your head right before they explode. Welcome to weather based mayhem aptly called "Stonados."
Boston gets bitten by the apocalyptic weather bug as if watching Tom Brady get beaten by Peyton wasn't bad enough. The movie opens with Plymouth Rock mysteriously being swept into an instant tornado (along with a tour guide) and flung dozens of miles away. Retired stormchaser and current high school teacher Joe Randall (Paul Johansson) is brought in by his cop sister Maddy (Miranda Frigon) and runs into Joe's old colleague (Sebastian Spence). That freak storm gets even freakier as other storms pop up around town spewing rocks the size of beach balls that smash windows, kill people and explode.
What wacky weather phenomenon could cause exploding rocks to hurl from the sky? Well, it has to do with trapped gases, volcanoes and being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Oh, and you get to see a Swan Boat get destroyed, because if it's one thing exploding rocks hate, it's Swan Boats. The only thing sillier than this premise is how they actually fight this ticked off tribute to global warming. Of course, this Syfy movie original was brought to you by the people who created such classics as "Super Eruption," "Seattle Superstorm," and of course, "Ragin' Cajun Redneck Gators." Only one of them may star Meryl Streep. Ok, none of them do.
If you wanted to love "Sharknado," but wasn't feeling the shark thing, then you'll love "Stonado," it's got enough humor, action and people blowing up to make the 88 minute running time fly by. Disaster film and documentary director Jason Bourque makes an entertaining weather thriller that's family fun if you leave your disbelief at the door. It's got family bonding, a love story and an authority figure that gets blown up mid-sentence.
Johannson deserves some kind of award for keeping a straight face through this film, but I'm sure his focus was on a possible sequel, much like yours will be as you wonder if SyFy can top this boulder based work of art. Spence as the middle aged adrenaline junkie is just the wiseass that makes the chemistry work not only with Johannson, but also with Maddy, who constantly shoots down his romantic advances.
"Stonadaos" is as fun and silly as the name implies. The performances are good enough to keep you entertained and if you like laughing while weather takes people out one by one, then this is the guilty pleasure you've been waiting for. Best of all, no sharks were harmed in the making of this film, although some CGI guys may have had to put in some overtime.
"Stonados" MPAA: Unrated. Running time: 88 minutes

Behind the Scenes of Jennifer Lopez's Stylists Issue Cover Shoot
"We tend to lean more towards some of the glitzier, glam-ier designers with Jennifer," says Rob Zangardi, alongside partner Mariel Haenn, of client Jennifer Lopez. Together, the trio appear on one of four THR covers for the annual style issue, ranking at No. 8 on the 25 Most Powerful Stylists List. They were photographed by Art Streiber at Siren Studios in Hollywood on March 6.
"There is so much fun stuff about working with Jennifer," says Zangardi, while Haenn notes that "she has so many different sides, so as stylists we get an opportunity to do everything."

Patriots practice Wednesday: No Sebastian Vollmer, Matthew Slater
|09.25.13 at 10:39 am ET
FOXBORO — Sebastian Vollmer and Matthew Slater were the only players missing from Patriots practice Wednesday morning on the grass fields outside Gillette Stadium.
The team practiced in full pads as they prepare for the Falcons on Sunday night at the Georgia Dome.
Slater is out 4-6 weeks after breaking his wrist in the Sept. 12 game against the Jets while Vollmer appeared to injure his foot in the first half of Sunday's win over Tampa Bay.
Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald reported that Vollmer sustained "only" a foot sprain and the injury is not considered serious. Still, his availability this Sunday night is in question.
Vollmer did not play in the second half and was replaced at right tackle by Marcus Cannon. Vollmer was not spotted in the locker room but was seen leaving Gillette Stadium in a walking boot, according to a report from Comcast's Mike Giardi.
If the Patriots lose the 6-foot-8, 320-pound right tackle, the depth impact could be felt immediately as they face road tests in Atlanta and Cincinnati in back-to-back weeks before hosting New Orleans. In his third season, Cannon did play well in the second half against Tampa Bay as the Patriots played with the lead.
Danny Amendola (groin) appeared to be moving slightly better but was still not at full speed. Amendola has missed the last two games after reinjuring his groin in Week 1 at Buffalo.

2012 Best Companies for Diversity
Michael L. Thompson, CEO of Fair Oaks Farms L.L.C., and his relationship with McDonald's USA demonstrate how the nation's largest fast-food company makes supplier diversity work. Fair Oaks Farms (No. 15 on the BE Industrial/Service Companies list with $288.7 million in revenues) supplies McDonald's with breakfast sausage for approximately 35% and strip bacon for about 75% of the U.S., in addition to some of McDonald's international markets.
Thompson has expanded Fair Oaks through retail and food service growth opportunities, including additional business with McDonald's. "We have a strategy to grow with all our key customers," he says. "Our business has more than tripled since becoming a majority owner of Fair Oaks Farms in 2003. We've been extremely blessed to have McDonald's as our largest customer."
Before becoming a supplier to the $27 billion giant, Thompson worked as a vice president for McDonald's in both operations and supply chain, so he knew the culture and process well. "Knowing both the operations and supply sides of the business helped me to understand their needs at a higher level," he says. Thompson's Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin-based business also supplies food products to Walmart, Sam's Club, Papa John's, Denny's, and Olive Garden. One of the most important lessons he's learned as a supplier is to leverage whatever is unique about his business. "Yes, customers want low prices," says Thompson, "but they want other things, too. In my world, it's food safety and quality."
Thompson is part of McDonald's expanding diverse supply chain network. In 2011, McDonald's purchased nearly $817 million in goods and services from companies owned by African Americans. In the past five years, the fast food giant's overall purchases from African American suppliers have increased 24.3%. The McDonald's U.S. system annually purchases more than 50% of its total food, distribution, and paper from minority- and women-owned suppliers. "One of the things I'm most proud of is how our team continues to make diversity a priority," says Pat Harris, the company's global chief diversity officer. "They demonstrate every day that at McDonald's, D and I [diversity and inclusion] is everyone's business."

The New American Couple
Sara Blakely, 40, founder of Spanx, and Jesse Itzler, 42, cofounder of Marquis Jet and principal investor in Zico Water
Recently, while dining with his wife and some friends, Jesse Itzler, cofounder of Marquis Jet, a firm that rents private planes to celebs and execs, was puzzled when one of his friends asked him about the La Jolla, California, home he'd put on the market. "Oh, I forgot to tell you, I decided to sell the house," his wife, Sara Blakely, founder of the ultrasuccessful Spanx body-shaper empire, said nonchalantly. Itzler was unfazed. It was hardly the first time his wife had made an executive decision about their finances without him green-lighting it. Only a year earlier he'd pulled into the driveway of their Connecticut home to find a new Lexus she'd bought. "I trust her to do whatever she wants," says Itzler.
Such is the laid-back, you-do-your-thing-I'll-do-mine approach Itzler and Blakely bring to their marriage. Both made their fortunes before marrying in 2008. They preside over their businesses from different cities: Blakely runs Spanx from Atlanta (their 21-month-old son, Lazer, typically travels with her); Itzler is based in Manhattan. The deal: Both must be home in time for dinner every night. "Home" is defined loosely - they own three residences and have just rented another for a monthlong getaway in San Diego. They rarely talk shop in their off-hours. "We're both past the PowerPoint stage of our businesses. We're older now and have other things we're interested in," explains Blakely, who routinely travels the country giving motivational speeches.
Not surprisingly, to make their warp-speed, frequent-flying lifestyle work, they rely on a team of minders: personal assistants, drivers, chefs, a 24-hour nanny on call, and "house managers" who ensure that, at any given time, there's Diet Coke in the fridge, gas in the tanks, and clean sheets on the bed. "It's really a full-time job to manage our lives," says Blakely. "We don't have the luxury of time. We spend more because of how we live, but it's important to be with our family and friends."

Some scientists believe that there is a growing shortage of fish in the sea. They believe the reason is that we have captured too many fish. This is called "overfishing." To help prevent overfishing, government has to set limits, called "quotas", on how many fish fishermen can catch in a year. In order to decide on quotas, the government needs to know the total number of fish that live there. They rely on scientists to find out.
But how can scientists tell? They couldn't possibly count every fish, especially when they can't see them all. The ocean is so big and fish spend all of their time underwater!
The truth is, scientists don't count every animal. Instead, they count some of the animals, then make an estimate using basic math.
Scientists are especially interested in the number of fish that live within limited areas. This is called the "population density." For example, scientists believe that, at certain times of the year, certain kinds of fish generally keep to a "neighborhood" or habitat off the coast of New England. They can find out whether the population density of this kind of fish is growing or shrinking by keeping track of the population density within a habitat over a number of years.
One method researchers use is fairly simple. They go out in boats, catch the fish, place "tags" on a certain number of them, and release them back into the ocean. One week, for example, they will tag twenty fish. The next week, they will return to the same area of the ocean and count every fish they see. Maybe they will see and count two hundred. Out of that two hundred, they find that ten of those fish have tags on them. They can assume that if they saw another two hundred fish, they would find the other ten tags. They can then estimate that there are about four hundred fish living in that habitat.
Do it yourself
This mathematics experiment is similar to the way scientists estimate population density. Guess the number of pennies/buttons without having to count every one.
- Small jar or bowl
- lots of small objects such as pennies or buttons
- water-based paint
- pen/pencil
- Place the pennies/buttons in a jar or bowl.
- Remove a big handful of the objects and paint a mark on each of them to "tag" them.
- Count how many you have "tagged" and write this number next to "A" in the space provided.
- When the paint is completely dry, place the marked pennies/buttons back into the container. Mix very well with the unmarked objects by shaking or stirring the jar.
- With your eyes closed, again remove a big handful of the pennies/buttons. Count the number of items you have removed and write this number next to "B" in the space provided. If there are no marked objects in your sample, you need to collect more and add those to your total in B.
- Count the number of "tagged" objects in your sample and write that number next to "C."
- To estimate the total number of objects in the jar, multiply "A" times "B," and divide the result by "C."
- Thus, (A x B)/C = approximate number of objects in jar.
- Repeat this several times, trying different size samples: two handfuls, a cupful, etc. Make sure to mix them back into the total population of objects every time. Remember, this is only an estimate. The larger the sample you take, the closer your guess will be to the exact total.
- After many guesses, count all of the pennies or buttons and see how close your guesses were.

Pittsburgh teenagers latest lost skiersJanuary 21,2013Three girls found
after leaving trail
KILLINGTON A group of three teenage skiers from the Pittsburgh, Pa., area, were the latest group of skiers who had to be rescued after they deliberately skied out of bounds Sunday afternoon, police said.
Vermont State Police said the skiers, all 17-year-old girls, were at Killington with a school group and skied out of bounds at 1:16 p.m. Sunday from the Juggernaut Trail. The girls later called 911, and their location was determined through GPS, police said.
The Killington Ski Patrol entered the woods and were able to locate the teenagers and get them out unharmed. State police and E-911 were also involved in the rescue.
Police said temperatures Sunday ranged from 45 to zero degrees, with winds gusting to 50 miles an hour. Police said the girls were not prepared for a night in the woods.
Killington has been plagued with dozens of out-of-bounds skiers this winter, requiring numerous rescues, and prompting a review by state police.MORE IN This Just InIve written much lately about the need for better media literacy and the importance of vetting...

Arusha now comes up with own KICC
By Valentine Marc Nkwame
The battle of being East Africa's congress destination is heating up again between Arusha and Nairobi city of Kenya.
Arusha and Nairobi, being both gateways to Tanzania and Kenya's tourist destinations respectively, have always been in tug-of-war when it comes to hosting international meetings and congress tourism.
Previously using their two conference landmarks, the AICC (Arusha International Conference Center) and Nairobi's sky-scrapping KICC (Kenyatta International Conference Center) as pawns in the cut-throat competition, latest reports have that Arusha is adding another center which will be using the KICC tag, the battle couldn't be more fierce.
Apparently the plans to establish a modern 'state-of-the-art' International Convention Centre in Arusha is moving into high gear and already the final feasibility study report for the Tsh. 122 billion project has been submitted. The new convention center is expected to be ready in the next few years.
It will be known as Kilimanjaro International Convention Center which means the new facility to be run under the Arusha International Conference Center, will also be going under the KICC abbreviation just like the Kenyan nemesis.
Dar-es-salaam city which of late had also been struggling to make its mark in congress tourism is also said to be preparing a similar center.
According to the Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Bernard Membe
A team of experts from the Consultancy Bureau at the University of Dar-es-Salaam prepared the feasibility study report.
Membe recently met with the AICC management with whom he discussed the convention center project in Arusha.
"We must assert ourselves in this growing industry if we are to remain relevant regionally, in Africa and even globally," the Minister stated recently when receiving the feasibility study report from the experts.
The Kilimanjaro International Convention Centre, complex will be built on 21 hectares in Olorien area of Arusha Municipality slightly off the Njiro road. The plot belongs to the Arusha International Conference Centre.
The facility will include a multipurpose hall which can accommodate 7,500 people. It is going to be the largest in East Africa. The KICC will also have an auditorium for 2,500 visitors; 24 flexible breakout rooms and a four-star hotel, capable of accommodating 250 guests.
The minister pointed out that the desire to build KICC comes from the huge potential and demand for such facilities that exists.
Mr. Membe also addressed the issue of the KICC location. The minister said Arusha had multiple factors for hosting the centre, which include vast natural attractions in the northern tourist circuit, good weather and accessibility.
The Minister also said that a similar facility would be built in Dar-es-Salaam city and it will be known as Julius Nyerere International Convention Centre, tribute to the founding father of the Nation.
Chinese architects have already been given the green-light to go ahead with its construction.
One of the experts from the University's Consultancy Bureau, Prof. Beatus Kundi said that once the envisaged project was ready, the country would earn about US $1.7 million (More than Tsh. 2 billion) in the first year of its operations and after five years of service the center would have raked in some US $ 2.1millon equivalent to Tsh. 3.5 billion.
Prof. Kundi said that their survey had indicated that due to the natural attractions surrounding Arusha together with the region's fine weather the facility was bound to be a money-spinner.
Arusha takes more than 80 percent of Tanzanian bound tourists numbering to about 700,000 visitors per year a figure that is projected to add up to one million mark in two years time when this destination can easily boast 800,000 tourists per annum.

ANAHEIM - Has the Ducks' 2009-10 season reached the tipping point?
Four victories in their past six games and points registered in 12 of their past 16 seem to suggest they're on upward trend. But is this the time where the Ducks keep it going and play their way into playoff contention or lose their momentum and meander through a season that goes nowhere?
The stretch of games leading into the Olympic break in mid-February figures to determine if they will have something to truly play for in the season's final months.
"I think we know what our potential is now," goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere said. "As a team, we realize what we can do and how well we can play. We're at a point here at Christmas time where we need to reach that potential every night.
"There's no excuses any more. Everybody knows each other. Everybody should be comfortable with everything. I think we're at a point right now where we should hit our full stride and really just lay it on the table and see what's going to happen.
"We're desperate right now."
As is his custom, Coach Randy Carlyle was much less absolute in his view of the big picture — or interested for that matter.
"I don't know if you can ever feel if you're at one point or another," Carlyle said. "We're .500. We're not in the playoffs. So our goal is to continue to try to give ourselves the best opportunity. I think that has to be our mindset.
"I know it's these old clichés, the one-game-at-a-time stuff. You've heard it a thousand times. But we can't focus on anything other than the game we play next, and that's at Colorado."
Left wing Matt Beleskey has played in the last 11 games since being recalled from the minor leagues but the 21-year-old isn't taking his regular spot on the checking line with Kyle Chipchura and Todd Marchant for granted.
"I could be gone tomorrow," Beleskey said. "You never really know. You can't really anticipate too much. But I was hoping for a longer stay and so far it's pretty good."
Carlyle said Beleskey is "understanding what it takes to be an NHL player day in, day out" and that he has a "big-time" shot that he'd like to see more in games while maintaining that his focus has to be on defense first.
"He's aggressive from the standpoint that he's on the body," Carlyle said. "And he understands that his role is to be one that he'll be expected to check and provide energy and kill some penalties. It would be nice to see him shoot the puck more and create some offense that way.
"But at this point, our expectations aren't real high for him to provide offense."
Said Beleskey: "When you stick with a line for a bit and me, Chip and Todd Marchant have been playing well, it gives you that confidence that you've got that role and [Randy] puts you out there in certain situations. You've just got to go with that confidence and keep playing."
Center Ryan Carter isn't skating as he suffered a setback in his recovery from a broken right foot last month but Carlyle said he expects that Carter will be back on the ice next week after the Ducks return from a game in San Jose on Saturday.
Carter has missed the last 18 games after getting hit by a shot during a practice last month in Columbus. He was skating on his own two weeks ago but reported that some pain persisted in the foot.

This morning I had radiation for the 31st time to annihilate my breast cancer. I've got, or as I like to say, I just had ductal carcinoma in situ. People who know a lot about breast cancer say that DCIS is "the good kind to get!" ("Good" being relative when it's in front of cancer, but my stage 0, non-invasive DCIS is curable.) Sure, there's way worse, but it's still the C word.
Between 2005 and 2007, I wrote a column for MORE called Quinlan&Answers, all about reinventing your career. But now I've made it my job to reinvent my breast cancer, to replace fear with hope. I hope that valiant women with more aggressive and dire conditions don't write me off as Pollyanna'ish, or worse, insensitive; instead, maybe I can help others who face what I'm facing, or confronting any dark period where you're ready for a little self-administered emotional rehab.
I've learned it's possible to get through something tough by deciding to turn it on its head. I'm on a journey of mind over matter, in this case, forcing my sunny side to tackle the tiny, dark cloud that appeared on a regular mammogram, just four months ago.
That April, I headed to my annual test with typical "I hate being squeezed" resolve. But I soon learned that the jaws of the machine were the least of my problems when the doctor called me back for a closer picture. My radiologist wanted a biopsy to confirm his suspicions about a small cluster of calcifications. I was right to be scared.
My breast surgeon told me to expect one of three results: A) benign, b) cancer requiring surgery and radiation or C) more tests. Rather than mope around waiting for door number one, I spent the afternoon shopping with my friend Nancy. With each hour, I became more willing to buy anything to distract myself from the gnawing worry that this time, my luck might have run out.
Balancing my cell and a notepad on my shopping bag, I scratched out my doctor's verdict, scribbling phonetically since my brain went blank while Nancy squeezed my arm as she heard me stutter, "Ductal what?" I had barely heard of DCIS, which is surprising, since thanks to earlier detection and more regular mammograms, 22% of the women diagnosed with breast cancer each year, get it.
Nancy and I ducked into a Greek café and I downed a Pinot Grigio between sobs. Lumpectomy? A month of radiation? This can't be.
As I walked home to tell my rock of a husband, I knew that I was going to have to get my act together, that I couldn't sink into some self-pitying fear place. That's not who I am or who I was raised to be. Inside, I flipped a switch to a mantra that has kept me going since I was little. I decided to grit my teeth, put one foot in front of the other and get on with it.
In a fit of defiance, I decided to create a kind of cancer reinvention to parallel the treatment so I'd literally radiate with energy and strength. Here, at MORE.com, I'll be sharing what I'm going through—both brave and chicken—and the progress I make.

One night my husband was browsing on the Internet and came across a site that has clips on strange addictions. To my surprise, these addictions were very weird to say the least. My heart went out to them as I watched their stories unfold. People with different types of addictions all have hidden emotional scars rooted from childhood. Many of them all attest the divorce of their parents created these addictions. Some have been molested or lost a loved one early. There are few that lost a spouse and started an addiction to fill the void. The stories I am going to share here are all public record.
This first story is from a young lady who came from a broken home. Her parents divorced when she was very young. Mentally she haven't resolved this loss. It stuck with her all the way into her adulthood. This addiction would make anyone worry. She eats couch cushions all day every day literally. Most people smoke cigarettes, drink, smoke, gamble, shop, or do drugs, but eating couch cushions was crazy for me to conceive. Luckily for her, she is one hundred percent healthy in her body. However, she needs mental evaluations to become healed from that addiction.
Second story is from an older woman who suffered the divorce of her parents as well. Her addiction is eating comet cleanser. She said she loves the way it feels in her mouth. This completely turned my stomach. Surprisingly, she too is healthy in her body. Her teeth completely rotted out and she had inflamed gums. Her mouth looked like the mouthpieces athletes used in their sports.
Third story is from an older man who lost his wife. They were a lovely couple. He loved his wife. She died in an accident that took her suddenly. Since then he hasn't completely recovered from his grief. They owned a farm that was absolutely beautiful when they both ran it. His addiction was collecting rodents as pets. It started with a couple of them to well over a thousand. These rodents completely destroyed his home. But he was their caretaker. He would wash, feed, and sleep with them. He stopped sleeping with them because they would bite his face, ears, and hair. Eventually the animal shelter removed all of them from the home and he finally grieved his wife's passing.
Another type of addiction that surprised me was pornography. I had no idea that people could actually be addicted to things of a sexual nature. Apparently there are millions of people in the World that struggle with porn. I even came across a site that helps people overcome porn addiction.
Word to everyone reading this article, don't let life situations cause you to partake in these different types of addictions.

TC TO ISABELLA CARLYLE ; 4 August 1856; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18560804-TC-IC-01; CL 31: 149
Gill, Monday, 4 Augt 1856—
Dear Isabella,
On informing myself better about the tides, I find that there will be good bathing tomorrow, and tolerable next day; so that it will not be till Thursday that I get loose. If I write nothing to the contrary, expect me on Thursday, then: it will be after dinner; I have some kind of work here, which I can get on with in the forenoon when there is no interruption.
The weather has grown consummately hot; for the corn's sake we will wish it may last a fortnight so. I have learned to keep within shelter mainly during the heat. I am well, doing well, but terribly bitten with clegs, mosquitos and other wretches
The horse goes excellently; and does me a great deal of good; well earning its daily bit of bread.
I have had no news at all; Jean is coming from Dumfries today to see.
Yours ever truly /
T. Carlyle

January 2015 Critical Patch Update Released
By Eric P. Maurice-Oracle on Jan 20, 2015
Hi, this is Eric Maurice.
Oracle today released the January 2015 Critical Patch Update. This Critical Patch Update provides 169 new fixes for security issues across a wide range of product families including: Oracle Database, Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Enterprise Manager, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle Supply Chain Suite, Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise, Oracle JDEdwards EnterpriseOne, Oracle Siebel CRM, Oracle iLearning, Oracle Java SE, Oracle Sun Systems Products Suite, Oracle Linux and Virtualization, and Oracle MySQL.
Out of these 169 vulnerabilities, 8 are for the Oracle Database. None of these database vulnerabilities are remotely exploitable without authentication, but a number of these vulnerabilities are relatively severe. The most severe of these database vulnerabilities (CVE-2014-6567) has received a CVSS Base Score of 9.0 to denote that a full compromise of the targeted server is possible on the Windows platform (for versions prior to Database 12c) but requires authentication (The CVSS Base Score for platforms other than Windows and for Database 12C on Windows is 6.5).
One database vulnerability (CVE-2014-6577) received a CVSS Base Score of 6.8. If successfully exploited, vulnerability CVE-2014-6577 can result in a complete confidentiality compromise of the targeted systems on database versions prior to 12c on the Windows platform. The CVSS Base Score for CVE-2014-6577 is 6.5 (the reported confidentiality impact value is "Partial+") for Database 12c on Windows and for all versions of the Database on Linux, Unix and other platforms.
Two database vulnerabilities received a CVSS Base Score of 6.5 (CVE-2014-0373 and CVE-2014-6578). The CVSS Base score of 6.5 for these vulnerabilities along with the Partial+ ratings indicate that a successful compromise of the vulnerabilities could result in a possible compromise of the entire database, but authenticating to the targeted system is required.
Because of the severity of these issues, Oracle highly recommends that this Critical Patch Update be applied against affected systems as soon as possible. As a reminder, the security risk matrices listed on the Critical Patch Update advisory lists the affected versions, and the accompanying patch availability document provides information about how to obtain the appropriate patches.
Note that, as discussed in a previous blog entry by Darius Wiles, the CVSS Special Interest Group has recently published a preview of the upcoming CVSS version 3.0 standard. A major improvement planned for this updated version of CVSS is the addition of a Scope metric that will provide a more generic way to indicate if the impact of a vulnerability extends beyond the component that contains the vulnerability. As a result, this new 'Scope' metric will eliminate the need for Oracle to use a Partial+ custom score.
This Critical Patch Update provides 36 new fixes for Oracle Fusion Middleware products. The most severe of these Fusion Middleware vulnerabilities has received a CVSS Base Score of 9.3. Two of the Oracle Fusion Middleware vulnerabilities fixed in this Critical Patch Update can result in a server takeover (CVE-2011-1944 and CVE-2014-0224).
This Critical Patch Update provides a number of security fixes for Oracle Applications, including 10 new fixes for Oracle E-Business Suite, 6 for Oracle Supply Chain Suite, 7 for Oracle PeopleSoft Enterprise, one for Oracle JDEdwards EnterpriseOne, 17 for Oracle Siebel CRM, and 2 for Oracle iLearning. Oracle Applications customers should apply these fixes as soon as possible, as well as apply other relevant fixes in the Oracle stack as prescribed in the Critical Patch Update Advisory and associated documentations. It is also very important that application customers remain on actively support versions from Oracle so that they can benefit from Oracle's ongoing security assurance effort, and continue to get security fixes which are thoroughly tested across the Oracle stack. Customers who have these applications hosted on their behalf should ensure that their service providers apply these patches in a timely fashion upon successful testing.
This Critical Patch Update also provides 29 new security fixes for the Oracle Sun Systems Products Suite. The highest CVSS Base Score reported for these vulnerabilities is 10.0. This vulnerability (CVE-2013-4784) affects XCP Firmware versions prior to XCP 2232. Note that per Oracle's Lifetime Systems Support Policy; Oracle will no longer systematically assess new security vulnerabilities against Solaris 8 and Solaris 9.
This Critical Patch Update delivers 19 new security fixes for Oracle Java SE. The most severe of these vulnerabilities received a CVSS Base Score of 10.0. This score is reported for 4 distinct Java SE client-only vulnerabilities (CVE-2014-6601; CVE-2015-0412; CVE-2014-6549; and CVE-2015-0408). Out of these 19 vulnerabilities, 15 affect client-only installations, 2 affect client and server installations, and 2 affect JSSE installations. This relatively low historical number for Oracle Java SE fixes reflect the results of Oracle's strategy for addressing security bugs affecting Java clients and improving security development practices in the Java development organization.
It is very important to note that, with this Critical Patch Update, Oracle will change the behavior of Java SE in regards to SSL. This Critical Patch Update will disable by default the use of SSL version 3.0. SSL v3.0 is widely regarded as an obsolete protocol, and this situation is aggravated by the POODLE vulnerability (CVE-2014-3566). As a result, this protocol is being widely targeted by malicious hackers.
Organizations should disable the use of all versions of SSL as they can no longer rely on SSL to ensure secure communications between systems.
Customers should update their custom code to switch to a more resilient protocol (e.g., TLS 1.2). They should also expect that all versions of SSL be disabled in all Oracle software moving forward. A manual configuration change can allow Java SE clients and server endpoints, which have been updated with this Critical Patch Update, to continue to temporarily use SSL v3.0. However, Oracle strongly recommends organizations to phase out their use of SSL v3.0 as soon as possible.
For More Information:
The Critical Patch Update Advisory is located at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpujan2015-1972971.html

Swimming offers opportunity for families to enjoy cooler temperatures and be together.
I got back in the pool last week and took a serious look at swimming.
I used to swim a lot way back when. When? I hate to date myself, but I took swimming at the University of Utah when accepted swimwear, no, "required swimwear" was nothing. True. Nude. At least for the men. I didn't think much about it then because it was required. All students were in the buff. The teacher wore a suit, but students, all men, didn't.
Why? The instructor, if I remember right, said it was for health reasons. Chemicals came with suits, like soap and bleach. Not the case for nudists. Another reason was swimsuits back then were primarily made of cotton and shed cotton threads that clogged the filter systems.
I would later learn friends were required to swim without suits at the Deseret Gym and the YMCA, too. Same reasons, I suspect.
So why revisit an old activity? I read an article recently on a study showing swimmers live longer than walkers or runners, and not by just a few days. Researchers found swimmers were 50 percent less likely to die between the ages of 20 and 90 than walkers or runners.
I decided to not give up walking, but to simply add swimming. A few laps told me, harshly, I have a long ways to go before I'm at the level I was at the U. Of course, it could be the swimsuit held me back.
Watching good swimmers in the lap lanes also tells me I should take a lesson. Swimming today looks very different from what was taught at the U. There seems to be more body roll and slower, more steady strokes. Also, I noted, breathing is done every two to three strokes instead of every stroke.
One story I read says the new technique has head, hips and feet regularly break the surface during the freestyle stroke. It also puts emphasis on the kick. A friends who was a Navy SEAL said all propulsion in the water was in the kick and using his hands and arms only slowed him down.
I've also noticed some swimmers are using lightweight fins and snorkel in the pool. The idea is to not labor, but enjoy the water. And, of course, get healthier. Swimming can, according to another report, develop general strength, cardiovascular fitness and endurance. And it's a way of beating the heat.
There are different levels of pool activity. If swimming is uncomfortable, take a class in water aerobics or try pool running. This is especially good for those with knee injuries or joint pain.
The real students of swimming claim the rhythm and feeling of weightlessness lulls them into deep meditation. I don't know I'll ever get to that level. All I want is to enjoy the water and stay more active.
There are definitely benefits to swimming for all ages and finding a public pool in your area won't be difficult. Click here for a list of pools in the Salt Lake City area, or check out Salt Lake magazine's story on summer swim spots.

More than minoxidil alone. More than any single drug. Spectral.DNC-L — today's most advanced hair-growth treatment — combines all the latest science into one convenient formula to perform through multiple pathways.
A true breakthrough, Spectral.DNC-L delivers the most aggressive, most powerful, most effective topical treatment to retain and regrow hair because it fuses a broad spectrum of clinically proven compounds. This recipe is not like any other product available over the counter or by prescription.
Spectral.DNC-L deposits cutting-edge ingredients deep below the surface of the scalp, where they can really perform, through proprietary nanosome encapsulation. These tiny nanosomes — micro-spheres of organic liposome 200 times smaller than human skin cells — have a composition similar to skin. Unlike common lotions, they burrow into the dermis to release their precious cargo slowly over time, for maximum effect.
In a cream base for easy application without dripping, Spectral.DNC-L starts with research-grade 5% minoxidil, the best-known molecule proven by clinical trials to trigger hair growth. Then it adds three natural 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors to suppress the hormone dihydrotestosterone that triggers male pattern baldness. It pioneers use of the amino acid arginine to stimulate nitric oxide formation, mediate cell activity, and feed hungry follicles.
An army of auxiliary agents reinforce these ingredients. Natural botanicals combat fungal colonization and reduce sebum. Soothing retinol calms inflamed tissues. Aminexil SP94® strengthens roots. Vitamins and minerals contribute to nutrition. Capsicum stimulates.
This coordinated attack against baldness means that Spectral.DNC-L protects against damage, slows hair loss, improves follicle health, and grows new hair longer, thicker, and faster than any other product.
The bottom line is: You get to keep the hair you have, regrow the hair you lost, and live the life you really want.
Directions: Massage DS Laboratories Spectral.DNC-L into your scalp twice per day for three months to witness amazing results.
Net Weight: 60 ml

St. Innocent Momtazi Hill Pinot Noir 2008
Pinot Noir from Willamette Valley, Oregon
Winemaker's Notes
This wine has a distinctly different density compared to other St. Innocent offerings and reflects its unique McMinnville terroir. The best analogy I can offer is to imagine having tasted all of Burgundy except for Nuits-Saint-Georges. Then you taste Nuits-Saint-Georges and respond that this is not Burgundy. But of course it is, in fact it is the geographic center of Burgundy, yet is somehow completely different. This is how Momtazi and the McMinnville AVA fits into the profile of Oregon's Willamette Valley.
This is a complex wine that reflects the heat of the afternoon sun, the cool, windy evenings, and the rustic soils of the McMinnville hills while retaining the dark beauty of its intense, ripe fruit. It is aromatically complex with layers of blue and black fruit, Indian spices, coffee hints, and pepper. In the mouth these complex aromas are reflected along with a "sauvage" sense of wildness. Texturally layered, its flavors vary in intensity and quality over your tongue and palate. Ample ripe tannins balance with its acidity into a finish that integrates both its dark, wild fruit and its exotic spices.
Serve with braised meats, stews, sausages, or cassoulet. It can be enjoyed in its youth after decanting for two hours or more and will develop over a decade.
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "The 2008 Pinot Noir Momtazi Vineyard comes from a cool site in McMinnville that is often difficult to ripen but not in this stellar vintage. It gives up dark fruit aromas along with earth and mineral notes (but no green character). Savory, dense, and full of flavor, this is a rare Willamette Pinot with a "sauvage" character more often seen in Burgundy. It will be at its best from 2012 to 2020. "
St. Innocent Winery
St. Innocent Winery was founded in May 1988 by Mark Vlossak, the current winemaker and president, and eight investors. Ten tons of grapes were crushed the first fall, producing 396 cases of still and 176 cases of sparkling wine. Production increased to our full capacity of 6800 cases in 2004. The winery is located in Salem, Oregon, at the southeast corner of the Eola Hills, in the mid-Willamette valley.
St. Innocent produces small lot, handmade wines: seven single vineyard Pinot noirs and a blended Pinot noir called the Villages Cuvée, two Chardonnay from Dijon clone plantings, two Pinot gris, and a Pinot blanc.
The philosophy behind the winemaking at St Innocent is that the function of wine is to complement and extend the pleasure of a meal. The characteristics of a wine should enhance different food and flavor combinations - this interaction amplifies the pleasure of a meal. To this end, St. Innocent wines tend toward higher acid levels, and more diverse and balanced flavors. View all St. Innocent Winery Wines
About Willamette ValleyView a map of Willamette Valley wineries (will-AAM-it)
Named for the river that runs through the valley from Portland to Eugene, Willamette Valley is home to some of the best Pinot Noir vineyards in the Northwest. While along the same north/south line as Seattle, the Willamette Valley is protected from Pacific rains by the Coast Range on the western border and the Cascade Ranges to the east. Though sunshine is typically plentiful, rainfall can occasionally be tricky, and the wines here vary vintage to vintage. Within the Willamette Valley are are number of sub-regions, including McMinnville, Dundee and Yamhill.
Notable FactsThe valley is known for its Pinots – Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. With a climate similar to Burgundy – in rainfall, sunlight hours and other climate factors – Pinot Noir has flourished here. Pinot Noir in Oregon produces wines that are fruit forward, yet complex, some with good agebility.
Other than Pinot Noir, many wineries grow Pinot Gris and Chardonnay. Pinot Gris from Oregon is delightful in its texture and food friendliness. Chardonnay in the valley adapts well to the cool climate and produces lean, elegant wines.
About OregonOregon has long been an agricultural state, producing everything from hazelnuts to cattle. The Willamette Valley in particular is a fertile basin for all sorts of produce. Not quite pegged as a wine state, in 1965, a UC Davis graduate named David Lett decided that the Willamette's climate mirrored that of Burgundy in France. With that in mind, he decided to plant some Pinot Noir clones to see how they did. And a good gamble it was. The Willamette is now one of the only regions in the world to focus solely on Pinot Noir as its red variety. Also known for Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. The southern part of Oregon has been slower in delving into the world wine market, but has been making excellent strides with their Rhone style varietals, like Syrah and Grenache. There are also coastal regions producing promising wines.

Many Americans are experiencing the burdens of inflation, ever since our Government nullified the convertibility of our currency to gold coins in 1930's, currency became inconvertible to silver in 1965; then took us off the gold standard in 1971.
Inflation is caused by the increasing of the money supply. Some members of Congress have been pushing to raise the debt ceiling repeatedly, they even entertained the minting of a Trillion dollar coin to meet obligations. Don't believe the Government when they tell you they didn't increase taxes. Inflation is the most insidious tax of all.
Germany had hyperinflation as a result of forced reparation payments from the Versailles Treaty to France after WW I. At the height of Germany's inflation it took a wheel barrel of Marks to buy a loaf of bread.
Inflation steals money from American bank accounts and pockets by eroding our purchasing power; though not apparent to most people usurping governmental transparency. Americans are feeling the effects of inflation through rising food prices, gas prices, and numerous consumer products.
Inflation is caused by the Federal Government, since the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve collaborate through the creation of new fiat money, primarily Treasury Securities and currency.
The goal of the Socialists and Communists are clear, they seek to impoverish everyone and create a one class system. This actually existed during the first century when the Apostles and Disciples of Christ collected their goods and divided them among each other. This had more to do with communism than you would think. Inflation is immoral.
John Maynard Keynes stated it perfectly, "By the process of inflation governments can confiscate, secretly & unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this process, not only do they confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily, and while the process impoverishes most, it actually enriches a few…"
John Maynard Keynes, at the Paris Peace Conference 1919, the "Father of Deficit Spending"
In George Orwell's book 1984, he refers to the doublespeak that the Government used to control the minds of the American people. Big Brother states in the book 1984 to paraphrase, "We are increasing your candy rations from 5 candy bars a month to 3 candy bars a month and the people applauded."
The first leader to debase his Government's coinage was the Emperor of Rome, Nero. Nero devalued the silver coins by decreasing the fineness of the silver in its coins and punching a hole in the gold coins.
How many people do you hear "applauding" after the reevaluation on their home? Many think their home is worth more because the tax man says so. Your home isn't worth any more than before the reevaluation, it provides a utility, your home keeps you warm and dry.
John Maynard Keynes again, " There is no surer, no subtler means for overturning the existing basis of a society than to debauch the currency.The debasement employs all the force of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does so in a way not one citizen in one million is able to diagnose."
"Asking the government for statistic on inflation is like asking the Mafia how much money they made from drug-dealing, prostitution, and loan sharking." Anonymous
If the USA were to go back on the gold standard the price of gold per ounce would approximately be between $9,000 and $15,000 an ounce, based on the amount of fiat money created and prospective gold reserve percentages. Source: Sprott Money Blog.

Improve your players' fitness and technical ability at the same time with this compilation of highly effective conditioning drills performed with a ball
Now this is comprehensive! Soccer Conditioning with a Ball is a special book overloaded with drills that will boost your players' fitness while also improving their ball control, first touch, defensive footwork and every other core skill your team needs for success. No more will players waste time standing in lines or running aimlessly around cones, because these conditioning drills are all performed with a ball at your players' feet.
Dear Coach,
Deciding whether to work on fitness or technique is a never ending dilemma. Should you focus on improving ball control, dribbling and other core skills? Or is improving your players' technical ability a waste of time if they don't have enough gas in the tank to last a full game? Well, with the drills in this book you need never have to make that choice again.
Soccer Conditioning with a Ball is a compilation of the best conditioning drills handpicked from WORLD CLASS COACHING's vast library. This special book is packed with over 20 exercises which will improve technique and fitness at the same time, covering every core skill and position. This includes dynamic first touch drills with sprint dribbling; high intensity conditioning circuits; 1v1 small sided anaerobic exercises; pattern plays that replicate real game scenarios and much more.
In addition, Soccer Conditioning with a Ball also features 'soccer science' articles on the latest sports science research on modern conditioning coaching techniques. So along with a wide ranging compilation of conditioning drills, you can also expand your own knowledge with insights into plyometric and high intensity interval training and how it can be used to get bigger benefits from every coaching session.
"No longer will you have to waste 10-15 minutes of training sessions working on fitness. Instead you can use this time to work on improving technical skills, and gain a double whammy of benefits from every drill"
The pace of modern soccer has rocketed in recent years. Players can run up to 10km per game, which is the same as running across 350 basketball courts or running a marathon every four games. Despite these vast distances covered every game, players need to continue passing accurately, defending tightly and shooting accurately for the full 90 minutes.
While fitness and conditioning gets a lot of attention at the start of the season, this focus can wane as the season progresses. Instead, more time is spent on technical areas where the team's weaknesses have become exposed But this means that, whilst technical ability might improve, players can get tired earlier in games, leading to mistakes and games being lost in the final phases of the game.
With the rapid pace of the modern game, many leading coaches are turning to conditioning training exercises which also include technical elements. Instead of being sent to run around cones, players are set performing high intensity circuit exercises which improve both their fitness and technique. Soccer Conditioning with a Ball presents you with the drills used by these coaches, which enable them to train teams to build muscles, gain higher stamina and advances in technique all at the same time.
"A compilation of the very best conditioning drills from WORLD CLASS COACHING's vast library"

What you will gain from Soccer Conditioning with a Ball
The game of soccer isn't a marathon. It's evolved into becoming a rapid series of short, fast sprints. This means that sending players running around cones to improve their fitness isn't going to adequately prepare their muscles, lungs or mind for the physical nature of the modern game. At the same time, why sacrifice 10-15 minutes of every session on fitness when you could be combining this with technical drills which enable you to gain bigger improvements in every session?
- Soccer Conditioning with a Ball provides all the drills you need to improve the conditioning and technique of your players at the same time. From this book you will gain:Over 20 soccer conditioning drills performed with a ball
- Soccer science articles that will enrich your coaching knowledge with the latest insights on plyometric and high intensity training
- Defensive improvements include better shielding of the ball, better defensive heading and quicker recoveries when the ball is lost in the opponent's final third
- Midfielders will improve their passing, quick sprints and dribbling agility
- Forwards will be able to make quicker turns, sprints into the box and more accurate finishing
- All the technical improvements are supported by better conditioning, enabling players to perform at their optimum level until the final whistle
- You will gain extra time through not having to coach fitness and technique separately and by allowing players to be using the ball instead of waiting in lines
- More time spent on conditioning will help to develop strong limbs, flexible joints and high levels of fitness to enable players to keep playing at the highest level for the whole game.
- Improved conditioning means players will be less likely to get injured and will remain fit and healthy for the whole season.
- Your players will not miss having to run around cones yet will love being able to get more time on the ball in every session

"Why waste time with your players standing in lines when they could be honing their skills and improving their fitness with the ball at their feet"

The rise of fast paced counter attacking soccer means that players are expected to run further and perform with higher technique for the full 90 minutes. This means that approaches to coaching have to update with it. Instead of repetitive drills focused on one technique, players need to be trained in both technique and fitness at the same time.
Soccer Conditioning with a Ball provides a complete guide to the drills needed for coaching in the modern game. Carefully selected from WORLD CLASS COACHING's extensive resources and database of drills, the exercises in this book provide a complete selection for improving players in multiple skills and advancing their conditioning at the same time.

Mike Saif

Georgia Rule Movie Reviews
User reviews on Georgia Rule
Wife enjoyed it. I chose to not go, as Ms. Fonda being a great actress, particularly in her own production of "Tokyo Rose" during Viet Nam, still gets in the way, of my supporting any project she is associated with. I respect her "right" to do as she pleases, free-speech, politics, or otherwise - however, if it were up to me, she would be making pictures for the North Vietnamese State Film Co., and also be a permanent resident of the country she embraced - not the one she left behind.
this movie touches on a subject becoming more and more out of the dark in our society. It has some elements of truth but the full impact of emotions that are experienced are not deep enough but it touches on this most important issue that is soooo common in America. Little do people know how many children under 12 are being court ordered to be raped by their own fathers.
