Village Council— 'Local dispatch worth cost'
Forty-five villagers gathered in Village Council chambers Monday night, many there to talk about their strong desire to maintain a local dispatch service at the Yellow Springs Police Department. A dozen people spoke, including long-time police officer Al Pierce, who talked about the value of the personal and called the village's two full-time and five part-time dispatchers the "magnificent seven," who hold the department together.
Village Council— How fast to move on water sourcing?
An ongoing discussion on the sourcing of Yellow Springs water continued at Village Council's April 1 meeting, with Council President Judith Hempfling suggesting that more time is needed to decide how best to source local water.
Barr house to disappear in a controlled burn
The historic house on the Barr property downtown will be burned in a training exercise this month, according to Miami Township Fire Chief Colin Altman at Village Council's April 1 meeting.
Village Council— West Nile spraying nixed
Yellow Springs will not be sprayed with insecticide this summer in response to the presence of West Nile Virus-infected mosquitos, unless the health department determines the village is in a state of emergency. Rather, mosquito control will involve working with villagers to eliminate mosquito breeding sites and the use of larvicide to kill the insect larvae.
Village Council— Dispatch on chopping block
How important is it to villagers to have local police dispatchers? Village Council members want to hear from the community.
"We need to hear from citizens how valued our current system is. Is money more important?" said Council member Rick Walkey at Council's March 18 meeting.
Energy group helps Village to conserve
According to the 2012 annual report from the Yellow Springs Energy Board at Village Council's Feb. 19 meeting, the Village will, in the next few years, receive the large majority of its electrical power from renewable sources.
Women's Voices — Some art in hall, some not
What is the right balance between promoting free expression and protecting Village government from lawsuits if that expression offends? At their Feb. 19 meeting, Village Council members wrestled with that thorny issue as they determined the best way to display art during the upcoming Women's Voices Out Loud exhibit.
Council approves sculpture event
At their Feb. 19 meeting, Village Council members unanimously approved moving ahead with a bronze sculpture symposium sponsored by the Yellow Springs Arts Council.
Well-capping raises concern over Vernay plume clean-up
A proposed well-capping ordinance backed by Vernay Laboratories and the Greene County Combined Health District to prevent contamination from groundwater polluted by Vernay has raised concerns among some neighbors, who view the effort as an attempt by Vernay to circumvent long-term cleanup effort.
Village Council— Funding for nonprofits considered
How should Village Council respond to funding requests from local nonprofits? Council members held an initial discussion on the issue at their Jan. 7 meeting, although the topic was discussion only, with no action taken at this time.

Income qualifications
Keep in mind that if only a portion of the
proceeds is used for qualified expenses, then
only that part of the interest is exempt.
However, if your adjusted gross income, or
AGI, exceeds a certain amount, the exemption
is phased out. For bonds cashed in 2007, the
exemption begins to disappear when the joint
AGI is $98,400 or $65,600 for a single parent.
The exemption completely disappears if the
joint AGI is $128,400 or $80,600 for a single.
These figures are adjusted annually for inflation.
A new online program
I and EE bonds were once sold and redeemed solely as a paper security, but now they're available in electronic form. As a TreasuryDirect account holder, you can buy, manage and redeem I and EE bonds online.
A new program called Smart
Exchange allows TreasuryDirect account
owners to convert their Series E, EE and I
paper savings bonds to electronic securities
in a special conversion linked account within
their online account.
If you redeem I or EE bonds within the first five years, you'll forfeit the three most recent months' interest. After five years, you won't be penalized.
Custodial accounts
When parents can afford to pay for their child's
college education or the family's income is
too high to receive financial aid, it is time
to consider a custodial account. Known as
the Uniform Transfer to Minors Act, or UTMA,
or Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, or UGMA, accounts,
they offer the most flexibility and up to
$850 a year in tax-free earnings. Any family
member can contribute to these accounts. Withdrawals
can be made at any time without penalties.
There is one potentially significant drawback: Money in a custodial account is an income-producing asset of the child, so it will be difficult to qualify for need-based financial aid. In addition, your child will have complete control of the money once he or she reaches the age of 18 (in most states). If your child decides to blow the money on a trip to Europe instead of using it for educational purposes, there is nothing you can do to legally stop him or her.

According to CTV News, six dogs are believed to have been stolen from a dog-walker's truck in Langley, B.C. in Canada on Wednesday.
The truck was parked in the 4400 block of 206 Street when the dogs disappeared; the dog walker had stepped away from the vehicle for a short period of time to use the washroom.
Cpl. Holly Marks of the RCMP stated:
The dog walker/sitter had taken the dogs to an off-leash park in Brookswood and put them in the back of her pickup truck with a canopy so she could use the washroom,"
"When she returned ten minutes later, the canopy had been unlatched and all six dogs were gone."
Residents in the area are being asked to keep an eye out for the following dogs:
- Mia - A black and white Pit Bull
- Teemo – A grey Bouvier Poodle cross
- Buddy – A black and white Boston terrier
- Oscar – A black and brown Rottweiler / Husky cross
- Salty – A Border collie
- Molly – A grey and black Blue Heeler / Shepherd cross
Anyone with information or who has spotted any of these dogs is asked to contact the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200. Click here for more information.

The shell of Limax maximus
As promised in this post, here is a picture of the vestigial shell of the slug Limax maximus.
I cut along the back border of the mantle and then folded it over. The head of the slug is to the right. The shell sits under the mantle in a chamber called the shell sac. Immediately under the shell is the lung. I believe the spongy tissue under the shell and opposite to the lung in the picture is the kidney. The scale is in millimeters.

|Published Version
Galaxy interactions and mergers play a significant, but still debated and poorly understood role in the star formation history of galaxies. Numerical and theoretical models cannot yet explain the main properties of merger-induced starbursts, including their intensity and their spatial extent. Usually, the mechanism invoked in merger-induced starbursts is a global inflow of gas towards the central kpc, resulting in a nuclear starburst. We show here, using high-resolution AMR simulations and comparing to observations of the gas component in mergers, that the triggering of starbursts also results from increased ISM turbulence and velocity dispersions in interacting systems. This forms cold gas that are denser and more massive than in quiescent disk galaxies. The fraction of dense cold gas largely increases, modifying the global density distribution of these systems, and efficient star formation results. Because the starbursting activity is not just from a global compacting of the gas to higher average surface densities, but also from higher turbulence and fragmentation into massive and dense clouds, merging systems can enter a different regime of star formation compared to quiescent disk galaxies. This is in quantitative agreement with recent observations suggesting that disk galaxies and starbursting systems are not the low-activity end and high-activity end of a single regime, but actually follow different scaling relations for their star formation.

The Naples Art Association is adding Dinner with Artists to its popular ArtConnects lecture series. Dinner with Artists combines visual and culinary arts into unique evenings to remember, and on February 6, sculptor John Merchant will team up with culinary master Michael Kang to craft striking abstract sculpture paired with the best in non-traditional Chinese-French cuisine.
To prepare for each Dinner with Artists event, a Naples Art Association member visual artist and a master chef will visit each other's work spaces to share their creative process, motivations and techniques. The result is displayed, served and savored during the event. Proceeds from the evening will benefit ART Connects programming which includes Dinner with Artists, lectures for the public and professional development workshops for artists.
The Merchant/Kang dinner will be held at Veranda E at Hotel Escalante from 5:30-8:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 6. The restaurant has been described as "beyond cuisine" and "one of the most beautiful places to dine in Naples." They offer the ultimate culinary experience and are the only fine dining restaurant in Naples with their own on-premises sustainable organic garden.
Merchant's "images in stone" combine variations in surface, texture and shape that "best display the natural features of each stone." Veranda E's Executive Chef Michael Kang "builds seductive blends of Asian, American and European flavors on a plate with the skill of a master culinary architect." The two share a passion for color and design, and together they will delight guests' senses from palette to palate.
The evening features a presentation by John Merchant, creative cocktails, sit down dinner and wine pairing, and beverages. A pop-up boutique of the artist's work will be featured in The Hotel Escalante's Courtyard for the evening, and 30% of the proceeds will be donated towards the Naples Art Association's ART Connects programming. Space is limited. Tickets are available for $75 and are all-inclusive.

MONTVILLE TWP. — A 38-year-old Orrville man wanted in Wayne County for failing to appear in court on a drunken driving charge was arrested Friday evening after police said he fled a traffic stop.
Jimmy Freeze was a passenger in a vehicle pulled over at about 7:30 p.m. by Montville police for not having trailer lights at state Route 18 and Normandy Park Drive, just west of Interstate 71, according to police Sgt. Chris LaFond.
LaFond said the officer was doing a computer check when Freeze ran into the nearby woods.
The Ohio Highway Patrol, Medina County sheriff's deputies and Medina Township police assisted in sealing off the area. A request was made to bring in a K-9 unit.
But before the dog arrived, Freeze came out of the woods and walked onto I-71, where he was arrested without incident by a patrol trooper, LaFond said.
Freeze was charged with obstructing official business and taken to the Medina County Jail.

News item from 2013
Ashmolean project wins Contemporary Art Society Award
Artist Elizabeth Price has won this year's Contemporary Art Society Annual Award for Museums, in partnership with the Ashmolean Museum, Pitt Rivers Museum and the Ruskin School of Drawing & Fine Art. The Turner Prize-winning artist will now create a single-screen video work that will focus on depictions of the female figure in the two museums. It will form part of the Ashmolean's permanent collection.
Now in its fifth year, the prestigious Ł60,000 prize is one of the highest value contemporary art awards in the country and was presented this year by Mark Wallinger in a ceremony at the Dairy Art Centre in London on 18 November attended by artists, curators, collectors and other art world VIPs.
Price's commission will explore the archives and collections of the Ashmolean Museum and the Pitt Rivers Museum, looking particularly at photographs of artefacts and documents used historically by curators, anthropologists and archaeologists working in the field, while simultaneously engaging with the social and psychological implications of digital technologies.
The commission, comprising a single-screen video, will present and narrate artefacts from the Ashmolean's collection, with a focus on the female figure and the photographic and archival means of disclosing this figure over time.
Elizabeth Price said: "I'm so happy to win this prize. The very generous commission budget will enable me to make an artwork that would be otherwise impossible to realise. I'm particularly excited about the unique opportunity to work with the collections, and the people at the Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Museums in Oxford. It is an unprecedented opportunity for me."
The winner of the 2012 Turner Prize, Ms Price was born in Bradford and received a BFA from the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art in 1988. She has recently returned to Oxford to take up a permanent University lectureship.
Professor Christopher Brown CBE, Director of the Ashmolean, said: "The Ashmolean is profoundly grateful to the Contemporary Art Society for this award. It gives us a rare and unique opportunity to work with our colleagues at the Pitt Rivers Museum, the Ruskin School of Art, and an acclaimed contemporary artist on a new and challenging project. The collaboration will allow Elizabeth Price to work with the museums, the collections, and the rich archives of Oxford; and we are very excited by the work of art which the project will create."
The judging panel for this year's Contemporary Art Society Annual Award for Museums comprised artist Brian Griffiths, arts journalist Charlotte Higgins, gallery director Elizabeth Neilson and curator Kirsty Ogg.
Charlotte Higgins said: "When Elizabeth Price presented her project for Oxford it immediately became clear that she was on her way to producing a thrilling artwork that will dig deep into the Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers's archives and ask some characteristically penetrating questions of the way we think about and record the past. The panel was excited by the intellectual sparks that will be fired by Elizabeth's presence in the museums, and the curatorial, research and teaching possibilities that will flow from the work. Price is an artist who is working at the peak of her powers, but is still underrepresented in British institutions. It's fitting that the museums of the city where she studied and now teaches should be together committed to correcting this. Above all, though, the panel just can't wait to see what she makes."
Caroline Douglas, Director, Contemporary Art Society, said: "We are thrilled that Elizabeth Price has won this year's Contemporary Art Society Annual Award in conjunction with the Ashmolean Museum, Pitt Rivers and the Ruskin. Her commission will respond directly to the long and rich history of the Ashmolean's collection to produce a hugely significant new work - the first ever moving image work by a living artist to be acquired by the institution."

Calling all design nerds! The geniuses at Emeco have teamed up with Coca-Cola to re-imagine the classic 1006 Navy Chair - the sleek, durable chairs made for World War II that boast 150-year warranties - to suit our modern day environmental sensibilities. Released only days ago, they're calling it the 111 Navy Chair ($230) because it's constructed from 111 recycled plastic Coke bottles. The beauty is still in the design though, and this new plastic version is just as study and sleek as the 1944 aluminum model.

Last year ended on a sour note for the New England Patriots as the team lost convincingly in the AFC Championship Game to the Denver Broncos. One of the bright spots, however, was the emergence of rookie linebacker Jamie Collins towards the tail end of the season. Expectations wasn't high for the second-round pick, but entering his second season, Collins is expected to shine. The second-year player addressed those expectations on Thursday after organized team activities.
At 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, Jamie Collins is an athletic freak. He showed that athleticism in the divisional playoff game against the Indianapolis Colts. His quickness and feel for the game was demonstrated in a breakout performance that had the Patriots organization and their fans salivating. He played so well at key moments that his expectations has grown entering his second year. With a year experience under his belt and an increased understanding of the playbook, Collins believes he can take it to another level this season.
The product of Southern Mississippi told reporters, "I know a lot more. [I'm] playing faster. Last year had to learn everything. now I know most of it. I'm playing a little faster." Collins showed to be most effective covering short down situations and passing the rusher. With a sack and interception against Andrew Luck and the Colts, the young linebacker showed exactly why coach Bill Belichick took a shot at Collins in the early second round in the 2013 draft.
And it's not just the coaches who are praising Collins, his teammates are impressed as well. Dont'a Hightower, another young linebacker who expects to make a giant leap this year, applauded Collins for his maturity and his ability to help the team when they needed him most.
"It was a little bit harder losing Mayo and all those guys," said Hightower. "Before that it was a lot more fluid. And with Jamie I feel like he's blossomed a lot sooner than anybody. I feel like he was a lot more mature than some people are in their third year. him coming in and learning the way he did his first year, you couldn't tell that he wasn't a three- or a four -year player. He's helping out a lot, he's getting the younger guys in there, watching film, and getting everything situated with them. Just like Mayo said: We have old souls. We mature a lot faster."
If Collins is indeed more faster, he will be a force in the Patriots' defense, especially if his maturity level has risen as well. Barring injury, making the transition as one of the team's stars shouldn't be hard to accomplish for a play with the physical ability to impact an entire game with just one play. The New England Patriots look like they have themselves a special player.

I remember in the beginning
there was just you and me
and heartbeats--
small intervals where the air would leap from my chest,
saying you leave me breathless will always be an understatement.
I wanted to kiss you before
I even knew you or knew the real you
but your untied purple chucks
had me even before your hello--
months later I realized that meant to be's aren't always
as silly as they used to be.
I've fallen in love with how
the palms of our hands match
the planes of our souls and
every time I loop my fingers
between yours we fall deeper--
If there was ever a time I should explain myself,
it's be right now, but I think you know--
I mean you should know--
How irreversibly far I've fallen
for you.
We're all made of words and cells and silly stories, waiting for our moments to shines. Your light is just brighter than the rest.
Every time. I can't open up your page without ending up reading almost all of your poems and bawling my eyes out through half of them. Why are you so amazing?
Ahhh. I really appreciate this!! You're super sweet and this made my day <3<3<3
I've fallen in love with how
the palms of our hands match
the planes of our souls
the palms of our hands match
the planes of our souls
This is just so very very beautiful. Thank you for sharing a part of you with us
Lovely, just lovely. Your writing has a lot of depth, and gives (at least to me) a wonderful image; of a note jotted down thinly upon the fog lingering on the glass of a solitary window onlooking winter. Please keep writing, sharing, and being inspiring! I eagerly and patiently await more.
and i love them
and you

There's always more to climbing a 14er than merely reaching the top. While hiking gentle giant Uncompahgre Peak, I found undulating slopes dotted with lush wildflowers and the Uncompahgre Fritillary Butterfly an endangered species. Who knew my mountaineering adventure would include sightings of an endangered species?
Uncompahgre Peak, 14,309 feet
Denverites will find the six-hour drive well worth their effort once they see quaint historic Lake City. Just outside town, Uncompahgre Peak is a class 2 walk up, the perfect early season 14er, serving up a serious dose of San Juan Mountain Range bliss. Consider this off-the-beaten-path locale for your next weekend getaway.
Stats for climbing Uncompahgre Peak:
Objective: Uncompahgre Peak 14,309 feet
Trailhead: Nellie Creek 4WD Trailhead
Roundtrip distance: 7.25 miles
Elevation gain: 2,849 feet
Route: East Slopes in Colorado Fourteeners: From Hikes to Climbs, also known as the South Ridge route on 14ers.com.
Uncompahgre Peak 14,309 feet, East Slopes/South Ridge
Perhaps one of the most straightforward, relaxing and scenic 14ers you'll ever climb. The trail is well marked and beautifully open. I relied on the 14ers.com web site and Gerry Roach's Colorado Fourteeners: From Hikes to Climbs book (third edition) for trailhead navigation and route description details.
The scenery was so exquisite that my outing felt more like being in an IMAX movie theater rather than climbing up a peak!
Historic survey markers
Once on the summit be sure to locate the historic survey markers installed during an 1895 U.S. Geological expedition. These are approximately ten paces to climbers right of the summit. Checkout the slideshow to see these rare markers.
Uncompahgre fritillary butterfly
"The Uncompahgre fritillary butterfly was discovered on Uncompahgre Peak, Hinsdale County, Colorado on July 30, 1978. It was subsequently described as a new species." Source: US Fish & Wildlife Service, Species Profile
This butterfly is small with orange, white, brown and gray markings. A large kiosk located at the Nellie Creek trailhead provides information about these delicate creatures, their unique habitat along with current efforts to protect and support their ecosystem.
"All known populations are associated with large patches of snow willow above 3,780 meters (12,400 feet) which provide food and cover. The species has been found only on northeast-facing slopes, which are the coolest and wettest microhabitat available." Source: US Fish & Wildlife Service, Species Profile
During my ascent, the butterflies playfully swirled across the tundra, lifting my heart and tickling my soul. I smiled uncontrollably at these fluttering beings of light.
A big shout out goes out to Justin Koback of Colorado Springs. Thanks for driving me to the 4WD trailhead and sharing the hike up the mountain.

"100 Startups in 100 Days" is an incredible undertaking by Neil St. Clair of Silicon Alley video news site, AlleyWire. AlleyWire tells stories of innovative people, companies, and events in New York, and presents these originally-reported videos in a professional, creative, and entertaining way. Past coverage includes a look at online marketplace CaterCow, an interview with the founders of HireArt, and an informative piece on affiliate software and service company NMRKT. AlleyWire has presented stories like these to a growing NYC and online audience for one year, and is now offering to feature innovative companies outside of the City—"100 Startups in 100 Days."
100 startups will have the chance to present their product or service to potential investors, customers, and business partners in the most diverse and populous city in the country, and the largest financial center in the world. This could be an entrepreneur's big break, and covering 100 companies (including 10 charitable organizations) in a little over three months would be a great achievement for AlleyWire. But they need your help. Neil has launched a Kickstarter campaign to secure more correspondents, videographers, and editors, and to travel to some of the startups' locations. Pledges are $10-$2,500, and $25,000 is the goal. Without adequate backing, AlleyWire will continue to "inform and inspire" audiences, but will continue to have a local focus. Donations at the $75 level also receive two tickets to the company's first-ever Innovater's Gala (March 20th at Above Allen in the Thompson Hotel) with angel investors, venture capitalists, and representatives of the 100 startups present. Gifts at other levels include on-camera or behind-the-camera training, your own video, or an intimate dinner with select correspondents, startup founders, and members of the venture capital/angel community.

The National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation or Nasdaq is the world's first electronic stock exchange and is based in New York.
Expanded Definition
Nasdaq is an American stock exchange which is the largest electronic screen-based equity securities trading market in the United States. The Nasdaq is heavy with tech stocks.
The Nasdaq is an over-the-counter market, or dealer market, which is different than a market in "over-the-counter" stocks, which do not meet the rules qualifying them to trade on the major exchanges. A dealer market in this case means that dealers -- so-called "market makers" -- are trading from their own stock accounts, using their own research and expertise. The dealers communicate by electronic means.
The National Association of Securities Dealers was formed by the SEC in 1938 to regulate trading in the "over-the-counter" markets. The Maloney Act created the NASD to be a self-regulating body enforcing fair practices, thus increasing confidence in the markets. NASD remained under the auspices of the SEC, which had say-so over its decisions.
NASD was merged in 2007 with the enforcement arm of the New York Stock Exchange to become the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA. So NASD doesn't exist anymore. The regulatory authority looks out for individual investors by licensing and policing stock brokers.

Due Date Baby Shower
Set the tone for your Due Date shower by first selecting some fun printed partyware in bold colors and printed partyware. You'll need printed lunch napkins, cocktail napkins, and ideally coordinating appetizer/dessert plates - as well as solid main meal & salad plates.
It's okay to use pastels as accents to bright, bold colors - but try to stay away from the typical pastel pink & blue palette. For example, if mom is a really loves pink and is having a girl, try mixing pastel pink with a very eye-catching fuschia and splashes of bright orange.
Don't be afraid to mix your plastic/paper partyware with real dishware and eating utensils! If you have a lot of guests, this will help to keep the party affordable and make clean-up easier as well. In the party images shown here, we used "real" tumblers and dinner plates, plastic salad plates/bowls, paper napkins, and "traditional look" forks and knives, which look like the real thing even though they're actually faux! Tie your eating utensils together with simple ribbon, embellished with a candy pacifier and place them directly in the center of the plates. (see party decor for instructions on how to make the candy pacifiers).
To liven up the place settings even more, give each guest their own bottle of Izze soda in a color that coordinates with your theme. (Izze soda is available in several colors at most grocery or beverage stores, so you should be able to find something that works!)
The Centerpiece
For the Due Date centerpiece, you'll need baby bottles, candy pacifiers, foam or sponge numbers, and modular wall cubes or shelves, such as the L-shaped shelf pictured here.
First, open up a few of your printed napkins and lay them down to create setting area for your centerpiece. Arrange the wall shelves/cubes to your liking in the center of the napkins, then attach more napkins or some coordinating scrapbook paper to the backside of the wall shelf with craft glue or double-stick tape.
Next, find a good spot on the shelves to showcase your foam or sponge numbers. You can spread the numbers out to make everything fit, but be sure to show the entire due date - month, day and year. All of the sponge numbers pictured here were attached to the shelf with rolled scotch tape.
Finally, decorate the centerpiece with baby bottles and candy pacifiers. Fill the bottles with the printed napkins (just roll & trim the napkins to fit) and white lifesaver candies. Set the bottles on colored paper or adhesive sticker circles to make sure they stand out against the color of the shelf.

New Breast Augmentation
Anatomic prosthesis placement at subfascial plane, with axillary approach assisted by endoscopy.
This technique has been introduced by Dr. Graff and we have been pioneers around the world applying the technique, placement of anatomic implants at subfascial level assisted by endoscopy has become a revolutionary and successful technique, providing excellent aesthetic outcomes in breast surgery.
This technique is especially indicated in:
• women presenting small breasts (breast hipoplasia)
• women after one or more breast feeding episodes presenting breast size reduction associated to skin flaccidity but without ptosis (areola is located at the level or above the mammary fold).
New: subfascial plane
From the anatomic point of view, pectoralis muscle is covered by a fascia, made of a sort of fibrous sheet separating it from surrounding tissues. In this technique, the pectoralis muscle fascia is dissected off the underlying muscle placing the prosthesis in this plane, under the pectoralis fascia. Classically, breast implants were placed under the muscle (submuscular placement) or overlying the muscle just behind the gland (subglandular placement). Applying this new technique we gather the advantages of both classical techniques avoiding drawbacks:
• Takes over subglandular placement since in this plane, prosthesis and gland weight is borne by skin solely (breast retaining ligaments anchoring to the fascia are severed), developing breast ptosis as time goes by. However, with subfascial placement, the fascia plays a role supporting the prosthesis, eliminating tendency to develop ptosis, and at the same time upper pole fullness of the breast is achieved like subglandular implants do.
Surgical procedure
Step by step
• Initially, a 4 cm incision is made coinciding with a natural fold in the axilla, going from anterior axillary line but never crossing beyond the anterior edge of the pectoralis major muscle, hiding any scar.
- After skin incision is made, superficial fascia of pectoralis major muscle is identified and exposed, which is scored along a parallel line to muscle fibers over the edge of the muscle.
• Then, the undersurface of the pectoralis muscle fascia overlying muscle fibers is undermined assisted by lighted retractor connected to the endoscopic system designed by us (Serra-Renom Endoscopic Swivel Retractor System). Once the most distal edge of the muscle is reached, the fascia is incised horizontally along the 6th rib and subcutaneous dissection is performed to the desired final location of the new mammary fold.
• After performing the pocket for the prosthesis, a sizer implant is placed filled in with saline, providing useful information about the final volume needed while comparing one side to the other seeking for symmetry. Once the final volume is assessed, the sizer is removed and any bleeding point is checked out with the endoscope. In that moment, reference points within the final prosthesis are scored in the skin applying specular reflection or a pattern.
• Anatomic implant is placed and its correct position is checked out looking for reference points assisted by endoscope.
• Suction drain is placed and axillar incision is closed. We consider that carefully placed bandage kept in for a week to maintain the implant in the correct position avoiding rotation, is essential. During the following month, the patient must sleep strictly in a supine position wearing a brassier to keep the implants in position. The suction drain is removed after 24 hours. We have performed this technique in 165 patients with very satisfying postoperative period without any discomfort. No cases of implant rotation or displacement have been reported. Anatomic implants provide adequate fullness of breast upper pole. Axillary scar evolve very satisfactorily with no hypertrophic scarring.
Implant type and approach
For breast augmentation we use anatomic cohesive gel "Soft touch" implants instead of classic round shape ones, offering a wide variety of options in terms of shape, height, width and projection, achieving fullness of the upper poles. In this way, we can match the most suitable implant for each patient. We prefer axillary approach because the scar can be hidden completely and the mammary gland is not disturbed.
The ideal candidate to undergo this technique is a woman with:
• Breast hypoplasia
• Empty breast after one or more lactation
• Skin flaccidity without ptosis
Pinching test is performed to assess the thickness of skin-subcutaneous layer, since subfascial implant placement is determined by the presence of enough glandular and fatty tissue to provide adequate implant covering.
Placing anatomic implants at the subfascial plane:
• Breast fullness is achieved and particularly of the upper pole, since the implant is located behind the gland.
• Recovery during early postoperative period is better and less painful.
• Ptosis incidence is not increased since the fascia bears the weight of the prosthesis since fibrous connections between the deep layer of the superficial fascia and pectoralis major fascia are preserved.
In conclusion, we believe that anatomic implants placement through axillary approach in a subfascial plane combines the advantages of subglandular and submuscular placement, avoiding their drawbacks. Since the prosthesis is anatomic cohesive gel "Soft touch" (softer) implant, its placement from the axilla is easier. Endoscopic assistance facilitates the procedure providing excellent outcomes.

Mikey Weinstein, the Jewish father of two Air Force Academy cadets and an academy graduate himself, today filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Air Force and its acting secretary over the charges of religious intolerance that have surrounded the school since last June, when an internal task force found instances of religious insensitivity, and a subsequent report from the Yale Divinity School pointed to the evangelizing of school chaplains as one possible source of the problem. According to Weinstein, who says that both his sons were subjected to inappropriate proselytizing and anti-Semitic slurs, he was forced to sue after statements from the Air Force deputy chief of chaplains, regarding chaplains' continuing "right to evangelize the unchurched," convinced him that the academy had no intention of complying with new sensitivity guidelines.

Shaun Marsh gets T20 call-up, but Luke Pomersbach misses out
- From: News Corp Australia Network
- January 21, 2013
of 2
WEST Australian bad boy Shaun Marsh been included in Australia's Twenty20 squad just three months after being suspended for drinking during the Champions Trophy in South Africa.
Marsh was rewarded with a return to international cricket after topping the run-scoring in the Big Bash playing for runners-up the Perth Scorchers.
His former WA party partner Luke Pomersbach has been overlooked after almost single-handedly taking the Brisbane Heat to the Big Bash title.
Pomersbach missed out despite finishing behind Marsh on the Big Bash run-scoring table.
Australia plays Sri Lanka in the opening T20 game in Sydney on Saturday.
Third-placed Aaron Finch was also chosen despite being dropped from the one-day team after two poor games for Australia to begin the five-match series against Sri Lanka.
The bolter in the squad is Hobart Hurricanes seamer Ben Laughlin while chairman of selectors John Inverarity confirmed veteran David Hussey has missed out to exciting off-spinning all-rounder Glenn Maxwell.
Despite winning the title the Heat have just one player in the squad, fast bowler Ben Cutting, who has also been added to the one-day squad for the final match against Sri Lanka in Hobart on Wednesday.
The Hurricanes and Melbourne Stars have three players each, the Scorchers and Sydney Sixers two and Renegades one.
The squad has been chosen for Saturday night's match at Sydney's ANZ Stadium and next Monday's game at the MCG against Sri Lanka.
The squad includes six players who were not in the ICC World T20 squad in Sri Lanka last September.
Inverarity said each of those players, Finch, Marsh, Voges, Cutting, James Faulkner (Stars) and Laughlin had shown outstanding form in the T20 format over the past two months.
Only Cutting has not previously played T20 cricket for Australia.
"Their performances have been compelling and we anticipate they will take this momentum into the two fixtures," Inverarity said.
"Aaron Finch was the player of the tournament in the KFC T20 Big Bash League, while Shaun Marsh finished as the highest run-scorer with 412 runs.
"Ben Laughlin bowled cleverly to take the most number of wickets, 14, while Ben Cutting was second highest wicket-taker with 13 at a very good economy rate.
"Ben Rohrer played brilliantly with the Melbourne Renegades and was in strong contention for inclusion, as was Luke Pomersbach.
"The panel is pleased to see Luke playing so well and hope his good form continues."
T20 squad: George Bailey (capt), Ben Cutting, Xavier Doherty, James Faulkner, Aaron Finch, Ben Laughlin, Shaun Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Starc, Adam Voges, Matt Wade, David Warner.
Meanwhile, Australia has recalled impressive Queensland seamer Cutting to its squad for Wednesday's must-win one-day clash with Sri Lanka in Hobart.
Selectors have stuck with the same players as the previous two matches but re-added ifast bowler Cutting, who made his Australian debut earlier in the series.
Cutting flew to Hobart after helping Brisbane Heat to a BBL|02 win over Perth Scorchers in the final on Saturday night.
Australia must win on Wednesday to try to level the best-of-five series 2-2 - Sri Lanka leads the series 2-1 after four matches - after Sunday's match at the SCG was rained out.
ODI squad for Game 5: George Bailey, Michael Clarke (capt), Ben Cutting, Xavier Doherty, Moises Henriques, Phillip Hughes, David Hussey, Mitchell Johnson, Glenn Maxwell, Clint McKay, Mitchell Starc, Matthew Wade, David Warner.

Excellent decision by selectors. Shaun will be a perfect replacement for Michael Hussey in the test team for India tours and then Ashes. He has been in great form and really deserved a recall more than any other player. For the first time selectors have got this right after wasting time with Maxwell and Khawaja who have been given more opportunities than deserving Marsh.
Peter Charman Posted at 2:43 PM January 21, 2013

Childproofing checklist
Use our home babyproofing checklist as a tool to help create a safer home environment for your children.
We recommend babyproofing be done when your child is around 3-6 months of age, before he/she can crawl, but it's never too late.
It will make it easier if you don't wait for your child to start opening cabinets or trying to climb the stairs before you childproof your home. Do it as soon as you can, and as thoroughly as possible to help prevent the number one cause of injury to children (unintentional injuries).
The following is a list of common toddler safety risks in the home. Check off items once they are secured.
• Stairways : Secure the top and bottom of stairways with baby safety gates. Please see our "GUIDE TO BABY SAFETY GATES" to help you choose which gates are right for your space. PRESSURE MOUNTED BABY GATES ARE NOT FOR USE AT THE TOP OF THE STAIRS. Special circumstances like moldings/baseboards, uneven or hollow walls, wrought iron railings, balusters, etc., require the use of a gate installation kit to create a mountable surface.
• Windows : Windows (including first floor windows and higher ) pose a falling hazard to children. Children should not have access to open windows; windows that can be opened more than 4" are hazardous. Use childproofing window guards and/or locks on all windows.
• Window Blinds: Cords from window blinds should be kept out of children's reach at all times. They are a strangulation risk to children and can easily be secured out of reach. The inner cord of window blinds are also a strangulation hazard. NEVER PLACE A CHILD'S CRIB OR BED NEAR THE WINDOW OR WINDOW BLINDS.
• Electrical Outlets: Create a barrier between children and electrical currents with appropriate childproofing measures. Determine whether your outlets are Standard or Decorator* and:
If you have outlets constantly in use (i.e. lamp plugged in all the time): We suggest outlet covers.
For outlets that are frequently used (i.e. outlet used to plug in vacuum, then remove it): Try sliding outlet plates, which replace your existing outlet plate and have a 'door' that slides closed to cover the outlet as soon as an item is un plugged.
Outlets that are rarely used (usually left unused) : Outlet plugs fit snugly inside outlets to prevent access.
*Decorator Outlets have 2 screws. One at the top, one at the bottom. Standard outlets have one screw, in between the outlet recepticles.
For more information regarding electrical outlet safety, please read, "Outlet Safety In Your Home," a guide to selecting electrical safety products for your home.
• Medicines, Cleaners, Cosmetics, etc. : These items should be kept out of the reach of children at all times, even if they have a 'child safe' lid. Medicines, cosmetics, cleaners and other household products should be kept in their original containers with labels, and up in cupboards or on shelves where children can not have access to them. Use cabinet locks and latches on cupboards or drawers where these items are stored.
• Balcony, Loft, Landing, etc. with banisters : Use banister shields to close off gaps between balusters and newel posts, particularly where the space is more than 4" wide. Remove items from around banisters, half walls, etc. that children may use to climb on. This includes toys, chairs, tables, and other products that curious children may use to step up onto and over the railing.
• Kitchens: Kitchens can be one of the most hazardous rooms in your home. If it is possible, use a baby safety gate to block off access to the kitchen , especially during cooking or baking.
•Always use the back burners when cooking; make sure pan and pot handles are pointing toward the back of the stove.
•Never hold your child while working in the kitchen . Children may try to grab hot foods or sharp items that could injure them. If a child does grab a sharp item such as a knife, do not try to pull it out of the child's hand. Instead, firmly squeeze the child's wrist until they let go of the object.
•Use Stove Knob Covers or locks to prevent access to burner knobs.
•Use adhesive locks on the refrigerator/freezer to prevent little ones from getting into food and drinks they should not have.
•Keep knives and other sharp objects stored in locked drawers.
•Store plastic bags away from children.
• Electrical Appliances : There is a huge array of hazardous electrical appliances. Kitchen stoves, refrigerators, ovens, microwaves, and dishwashers can all lead to burns, access to plastic bags and sharp items, and other injuries. They should be secured with guards, latches, and straps to prevent access, and guard against injury. Unplug electrical appliances when not in use. Push them to the back of the counter so children cannot pull them down on themselves.
• Heavy or Unstable Furniture (including dressers, armoires, entertainment centers, book cases and changing tables, etc.): Every year thousands of children are injured due to tipping furniture. Children pull out dresser drawers and use them as steps to climb up furniture. Heavy and/or unstable furniture should be removed or secured with special furniture straps to studs in the walls to prevent them from tipping onto a child. Keep the tops of furniture clear of knick-knacks, toys, flowers, etc. to help deter climbing.
• Toilets : Children are particularly curious about water, even water in the toilet. Just a couple of inches of water, such as that in the toilet, bucket , or pet dish can pose a drowning risk. Use toilet locks to prevent access to water in the toilet, and never keep water in buckets, tubs, etc. Pets' water dishes should be kept out of the reach of babies and toddlers as well.
• Water sources (faucet, bathtub, shower) : Children should not have access to water for many reasons. In addition to the drowning risk associated with water, it can also put children at risk for being scalded if it is too hot. Water heaters in your home should be set to no more than 120 degrees to help prevent burns. Keep bathroom doors closed and use a doorknob cover to prevent unattended access.
• Cabinets/Drawers : Cabinets and drawers hold many items that are dangerous to children including cleansers, medicines, cosmetics and sharp objects like knives and scissors. Cabinets and drawers should be secured with locks or latches to prevent access. Individuals who prefer not to install hardware mounted cabinet and drawer latches can try latches which mount using adhesive.
• Garbage Cans : Children should not have access to garbage cans, their contents, or plastic garbage bags. Garbage cans should be placed where children cannot reach them, and locked closed with a locking strap.
• Sharp-edged tables, fireplace hearths, and window sills : Use corner and table edge cushions to pad sharp edges of tables, hearths, computer desks, counters, etc.
• Cords in reach : Electrical cords should be kept out of reach of children to minimize pulling on items, and gaining access to electrical outlets. Computers, entertainment centers, and lamps are a few items which have cords that should be secured out of reach. Cord control kits or outlet covers with cord shorteners can be used for this purpose.
• Nightlights: Some nightlights have small parts and hot bulbs which can injure children. They also may be pulled out, exposing children to outlets. Safety nightlights are an alternative to standard nightlights, and offer protection from outlets.
• Fireplaces, Wood Burning Stoves, Barbecue Grills : Children should not be allowed near fireplaces, grills or wood burning stoves. It is good practice not to allow children near them even when they are not in use. Protect children from burns from fireplaces and stoves with fireplace gates. Use edge and corner cushions on hearths to protect from bumps and bruises.
• Plants : Several household plants can be fatal to children if eaten, and the fertilizer in soil can be poisonous, as well. Plants should be moved out of chil dren's reach. If that is not an option, pot should be covered with mesh or plastic so that child does not have access to the soil. Your local hardware store should be able to help you find an appropriate gauge of mesh so that children can't reach in, but allow plants to 'breathe.'
• TV/VCR/DVD/Stereo : Children are often fascinated with buttons and doors, such as those found on TVs, DVD players, cable boxes, etc. Clear plastic shields can be used. Attach appliance straps to items to help prevent them from tipping onto children.
• Computer and Entertainment Centers: Areas around computers and entertainment centers can have several hazards to children. Generally, these areas have a large amount of cords, adapters, and heavy equipment like a monitor or television set. Browse our website for power strip safety covers, outlet and adapter covers, cord control kits, and safety locking straps to help prevent injuries .
• Carbon Monoxide and Smoke Detectors : It is recommended that carbon monoxide detectors be placed in every separate sleeping area of the home, on the ceiling at least 15 feet away from fuel- burning appliances. There should be at least one smoke detector on every floor of the home. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas, which is a particular hazard to children because they have faster metabolic rates and gas accumulates fas ter in their bodies than adults.
Other Home Childproofing Tips:
• Use childproofing products correctly all of the time.
• Train older children, babysitters and visitors (including Grandma and Grandpa) on how to properly use child safety items in your home to help ensure correct use, and continued protection of your child. It only takes one time for a cabinet to be left open, or a toilet to be left unlocked for an a ccident to happen.
• Prevent access to scalding water using anti-scald devices, and/or setting your water heater to a maximum temperature of 120 degrees.
• Make sure cleaners, cosmetics, plants, and other poisonous substances are correctly labeled with name and ingredients so that if your baby ingests them, you can give accurate information to a poison control center or emergency medical team.
• Make sure windows cannot be opened more than 4" and /or are blocked with Window Guards.
• Always supervise your child in the bath.
• Remove two-piece doorstops, which have small parts that can be choking hazards. Replace with one-piece doorstops.
• Make sure to keep older children's toys away from younger children.
• Keep cigarettes, lighters, matches, and lit candles out of children's reach.
• Children's clothing should not have small buttons or ties around the neck.
• Check floors for small objects that could pose a choking hazard, move breakable items like figurines, ceramics, vases, etc. to higher locations where children cannot reach them, and remove tablecloths and coverings that toddlers may try to pull themselves up on.
• Consider childproofing to be an ongoing process.
This baby proofing checklist was created to be as thorough as possible, however, please remember that this checklist is just for reference, and may not cover all of the child safety issues in your home. Just as every child is unique, baby proofing must be done based on your unique child's needs. What works for one parent or child may not be the best solution for you and your child.
Baby proofing products are meant to be deterrents; they are not meant to substitute for proper adult supervision.
Never leave a child unattended.

Hi Guys,
I fitted a front fender from John and am quite pleased with it.
I had to heat a section to miss my water bottle. I bent up his stays to suit the forks and used an expander fitting in the bottom of the steerer tube. It worked well. I made the indent by heating the fender and using a seat stem to indent it.

No. 25 Softball Upsets No. 2 Stanford, 3-1
Feb. 23, 2002
COLUMBUS, Ga. -- The 25th-ranked University of Massachusetts softball team scored two runs in the top half of the seventh inning as they upset second ranked Stanford, 3-1, in day two of action at the NFCA Leadoff Classic.
The Cardinal took an early 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning as they plated an unearned run off of Minutewoman hurler Kaila Holtz (North Vancouver, British Columbia). Robin Walker lead off by reaching on an error and was doubled home by Jessica Mendoza. After a strike-out, Kira Ching and Jessica Allister reached to load the bases, but Holtz settled down and retired the next two, leaving the bases loaded.
The Minutewomen tied the game in the top half of the second inning when sophomore Jamie Cahalan (Mesa, Ariz.) hit a two-out homerun. UMass threatened for more as junior Anna Perey (Chino Valley, Ariz.) and senior Ashley Bakken (Phoenix, Ariz.) strung together consecutive singles, but sophomore Aisha Franke (Philadelphia, Pa.) struck out ending the threat.
The game remained scoreless until the top of the seventh when the Minutewomen were able to score a pair of runs. Franke led the inning off with a single and advanced to second when junior Emily Robustelli (Stamford, Conn.) walked. Senior Teri Rooney (Visalia, Calif.) then singled to load the bases. After junior Brandi Cross (Diamond Bar, Calif.) forced Franke at home on a fielder's choice senior Scooter Wheeler (Kingsburg, Calif.) was hit by a pitch allowing the go-ahead run to score. Holtz then singles home Rooney adding an insurance run. Cahalan hit into a fielder's choice and Perey popped out to end the rally, but the damage had been done.
Holtz retired the Cardinal in order in the bottom of the seventh to preserve the win. She scattered four hits on the day, while striking out six and walking just one. Maureen LeCocq gave up three runs, all earned, on eight hits and six walks in six and a third innings. She struck out three.
The Minutewomen will take on regional rival Connecticut at 5:00 p.m. this afternoon in the Bronze Championship bracket of the NFCA Leadoff Classic. The Minutewomen and Huskies have two scheduled games this season. UMass took the season series last year 2-1.

By Steven Hager
Over a year ago, I wrote a feature article in HIGH TIMES, "Rick Simpson's Hemp Oil Medicine," which explained how a disabled hospital-maintenance worker in Nova Scotia, Canada, had cured his skin cancer with a topical application of homemade hash oil. Even more astonishing, after taking the same oil orally, Simpson discovered that it helped him considerably with a head injury he'd suffered. He began giving the oil to terminal cancer patients and discovered that about 70 percent of them were cured simply by ingesting 60 grams of oil in 30 days.
After the article appeared in HIGH TIMES, two things happened: 1) The Mounties raided Simpson's home and forced him to flee to Eastern Europe to avoid jail; 2) Dr. Lester Grinspoon, the foremost medical-marijuana expert in the world, wrote a note of caution advising me (and others) not to take Simpson's claims at face value, since there was zero scientific proof to back them up. In fact, all of the documentation that Simpson collected had been seized by the Canadian government in the raid, and while I'd met several people who swore that his hash oil had saved their lives, no one produced a biopsy or other evidence to support their claim.
When I spoke to Simpson about this, he said simply: "Put some oil on a case of skin cancer and watch it go away in a few days. How hard is that?" Since there are approximately two million cases of skin cancer reported in this country every year, I reasoned that finding people to test this theory wouldn't be difficult. Yet even within the cannabis-law reform community, few people seemed to take Simpson seriously. In fact, some leading activists viewed him as a dangerous quack, and not one doctor seemed interested in testing or replicating his astonishing results.
Then along came Dr. Robert J. Melamede, former chairman of the Department of Biology at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. Melamede is now the CEO of Cannabis Science, Inc., a company working closely with the Phoenix Tears Foundation and Rockbrook Dispensary to test this cannabis-oil medicine and document the results. A recent press release from the company asserts that a topical application of cannabis oil rapidly cured a documented case of basal-cell carcinoma.
Not mentioned in the release, however, is the fact that several cases of terminal cancer are also being treated with the same oil, and the preliminary results indicate that it works exactly as Simpson said it would. The only problem is getting these patients to release their medical data – it seems no one is jumping at the chance to become the poster child for cannabis and cancer.
Actually, there had been one volunteer for that position: Michelle Rainey, who began taking the oil immediately after discovering that she had melanoma and lymphatic cancer which had metastasized into her liver. Sadly, Rainey died a few weeks after starting the treatment – but Simpson always said that not every cancer patient could be saved with the oil. So while Rainey's death was a temporary setback to the hopes of proving that cannabis cures cancer, the evidence that Melamede is now collecting could prove to be the light at the end of the tunnel.
As soon as he has a documented case of internal cancer being cured with cannabis oil, all of that documentation will be sent for review to Dr. Grinspoon, who has already promised a mea culpa should that evidence emerge. I will keep you posted on these important developments.

Dear Editor,
The Oakhurst Area Chamber of Commerce recently asked their members to respond to a survey regarding public transit on Highway 41 to Yosemite (YARTS), but failed to ask the right question. Unfortunately, critical facts were omitted:
Regional transit (aka YARTS) on all four corridors leading into Yosemite (including the Highway 41 corridor) facilitates the 1980 Yosemite General Management Plan (GMP) goal to totally eliminate private vehicle access to Yosemite Valley.
The National Park Service has already removed 6,000 Valley parking spaces over the past several years as they incrementally move toward the 1980 GMP goal.
You, the taxpayers and owners of Yosemite, not only would be forced to ride a bus to Yosemite Valley, you will be subsidizing as much as 85% of the operational costs and apparently 100% of the capital budget.
Based on past and present feedback from tourists, the local economy will suffer a net loss as tourists choose to drive elsewhere.
And apparently the chamber is not interested in local residents who support the local businesses who would, at full build-out, have to put up with increased bus congestion in town replete with air pollution, infrastructure wear and tear, and irreparable damage to our local foothill environment and quality of life.
The question the chamber should be asking is: What must we do to protect our freedom to visit Yosemite Valley in the manner we choose while motivating the Park Service to put back in an environmentally compatible manner as many Valley Parking spaces as possible, and stop wasting our tax dollars?
When will the residents be served by the chamber?
Lou Aceto, Oakhurst

Cloudy skies didn't stop hundreds of Long Islanders from turning out for Alure Home Improvements' pep rally for Extreme Makeover: Home Edition last night at Suffolk County Sports Park in Central Islip.
Sal Ferro, President of Alure, hosted the rally, which was not only a celebration of the show's seventh season, but also an open casting call for local volunteers to help with Alure's partnership with the show in rebuilding a house to help a Long Island family in need.
[popup url="http://assets.longislandpress.com/photos/gallery.php?gazpart=view&gazimage=4052″]Click here to view more photos from the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition pep rally[/popup]
The event kicked off with a crowd-wide chant of the show's catchphrase, "Move that bus!" and the excitement built up from there.
The Press' own publisher Jed Morey was the first speaker of the night, stressing the camaraderie of Long Islanders. "Our center of gravity is the spirit of the Long Islander," Jed said proudly before introducing Ferro onto the field to speak.
Once Ferro took the mic, the rain began to pour, but he assured the crowd that a little shower was not going to stop the ceremony. "Rain doesn't stop us from building these houses, and it won't stop this pep rally," he said as the audience erupted in applause.
Ferro spoke about Alure's long history with the show, and the process leading up to their eighth home building collaboration. After working on several homes in New York and New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, Ferro wanted to bring the show back to Long Island. "When they asked me to do another show, I told them we'll do it under one condition…bring it back to Long Island," said Ferro.
He also touched upon the main theme of the night, which also happens to be the lifeblood of the show: community.
"Alure leads the build, but it takes a community to make it work," he said.
John Hampson, lead vocalist from the local band Nine Days braved the rain to perform the group's hit "Absolutely (Story of a Girl)". Local talent Something Fresh performed earlier in the night, revving the crowd for what was to come.
Milan Vasic, Senior Producer of the show likened the home makeover process to the community barn raisings of the 1900s. "It takes a community," he said.
Vasic also touched upon the inner workings of the show, explaining the producer's needs for things that many of us don't even think of, including food and water for the crew, service donations, and space donations.
Long Island Ducks Owner Frank Boulton and Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy also showed their support. "They not only build homes–they makes dreams," Levy said of the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team.
Although the episode featuring Alure won't air for a few months, be sure to tune into ABC every Sunday at 8 p.m. to watch Ty Pennington and the rest of the crew on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
For specific information on the build schedule, volunteer sign-ups, donations and sponsorships, visit www.alure.com and follow Extreme Long Island.

Dr. Wallach starts the show discussing a news article concerning the state of America's Social Security system. The article states that essentially within the next 20 or so years there will be almost as many people drawing from the system as there are paying in at the same time. Doc recommends that for people to "hedge the bets" they should start a Youngevity home-based business for additional "passive" income.
Pearls of Wisdom
Doug Winfrey and Dr. Wallach discuss a news article concerning recent research on the H5N1 avian flu. There has been another mutation to the virus that has experts concerned. Samples of the virus from Africa and Europe show that virus can now live at lower temperatures. This mean it can live in the human upper respiratory system where it enters the body. However the virus still must have further mutations before it can become a pandemic. Unfortunately experts don't know how many mutations will be needed before it can incubate and pass easily among the human population.
- Joanne has questions concerning the effectiveness of the "CM Cream" and "CM Plus" products.
- Kent has questions regarding the "OPC-T" product and fluoride in the environment.
- Gary has heard of mangosteen juice and asks Dr. Wallach which Youngevity products might contain the juice.
