Freud's Changing Perspective
Before his death, Lucian Freud (1922-2011) had been planning a pair of exhibitions. In response, the whole of the National Portrait Gallery's ground floor has been given over to "Lucian Freud Portraits," while at Blain/Southern gallery, Freud's biographer, William Feaver, has assembled the large show of "Drawings" he and the artist had long been discussing. ("Portraits" goes next to the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas, and "Drawings" to Acquavella Galleries in New York.)
Freud came to Britain as a schoolboy refugee in 1933, five years before his grandfather, Sigmund. The early, pale-skinned portraits of the '40s and '50s, painted with a small sable brush making fine marks on small canvases, resemble Netherlandish portraits. So careful was their finish (for example, "Girl with Beret," 1951-52) that the celebrated critic Herbert Read dubbed Freud "the Ingres of existentialism."
This show's hundred-plus paintings reveal Freud's interest in the texture of paint growing continuously; by the late '50s he had switched to coarser hog's hair brushes, and was applying the paint ever more thickly and freely. By the final room of the NPG, the canvases themselves are enormous, the marks vigorous and the paint scumbled and heavily impasto'd. "The Brigadier" (2003-4), for example, is 2.234 x 1.384 meters, and while the blue and scarlet of Andrew Parker-Bowles's uniform trousers are rendered with a smooth finish, his hands and face are painted so thickly that you have to step back to discern the features of the face.
By the mid-'50s, as NPG curator Sarah Howgate says in the splendid catalog, Freud had "moved away from his detached, objective style." Usually seated while he painted, as his brushwork loosened, he began to paint standing up. Following the melancholic 1954 painting of his fingernail-gnawing, distressed-looking second wife, Caroline Blackwood, in a Paris hotel bed, with a dark gray, shadowy self-portrait of the painter standing against a window, staring at her with resignation, he painted exclusively while standing.
This change of the artist's perspective is indicated clearly in the drawings show. Look at the illustrated "list of works" at the back of Mr. Feaver's sumptuously produced catalog and you can easily see the difference between those subjects Freud drew (as it were) face-to-face, and the later ones seen from above. To see what a superb draftsman Freud was, consider the three playful, spontaneous drawings (two at Blain/Southern, the third at the NPG) he made of his friend Francis Bacon one evening in 1951. Bacon has provocatively undone his zip to below the navel, and is swiveling his curvaceous torso. In the brief time available, the artist has even managed to capture the shadows, and a single, fluid line indicates most of the contours.
Freud said: "Nobody is representing anything. Everything is autobiographical and everything is a portrait, even if it's a chair." Painting people as they are, and the body as it is, meant that Freud's many nudes not only include the massively voluptuous, corpulent bodies of sitters such as Sue Tilley and Leigh Bowery, but also genitalia, often in the center of the picture space. The drawings show includes images of female genitals even more explicit than Gustave Courbet's 1866 "L'Origine du Monde." Readers of the catalog (it's not in the exhibition) will see the completely exposed, 71-year-old Freud, wearing nothing but his boots, in what I think is Freud's best and one of the greatest self-portraits ever made, the 1993 "Painter Working, Reflection."
As for autobiography, many of Freud's sitters were his friends and family—he had many children with several women. His dozens of images of his mother make it possible to bracket him with Rembrandt, as do the self-portraits, which I think are his finest work.
Visions of Mughal India
Another of the painters of our era, Howard Hodgkin, is unusual because he is not only celebrated as a great artist but also as an important collector. Since he was a schoolboy, he has bought Indian pictures and pruned what he's amassed, disposing of less-good pieces and replacing them with better ones as his purse allowed.
Now exhibited as a whole for the first time, at the Ashmolean in Oxford, is "Visions of Mughal India: The Collection of Howard Hodgkin," the 115 works that make this one of the world's largest and finest of its kind. In the hefty catalog, edited by the curator, Andrew Topfield, the artist writes: "I started buying them because I thought they were beautiful." That is, not because they represented a particular school or style, or to fill gaps in what he already owned.
Indian pictures are usually small—often "miniatures." But Howard Hodgkin also reveals that "I particularly like big pictures and don't mind if they are damaged, provided that the original character of the painting survives." He also prefers "broad, architectural compositions rather than small, finicky ones." Many Indian paintings are small format because they weren't displayed by framing and hanging them on walls, but were kept in bundles and passed from hand to hand. Finally, as Freud loved colossal humans, his fellow painter loves elephants—as these 16th-19th-century Indian artists so obviously did too. From its three rare pages of the "Hamzanama" to its thrilling elephant battles, this is an unmissable show for anyone who cares about Indian art.

The thing I like most about this site is that it gives the option to look at the canvas in a room setting in order to know exactly what size to get and also what image looks best on a certain wall color. It is very simple and quick (as long as you know what picture you want to upload). Also, it's the cheapest I found with FREE shipping!!!

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
Why You Have Cystitis
Any woman who has had cystitis cringes from the viewpoint held by many doctors that three or four bladder infections a year is no big deal. The pain of these episodic infections is excruciating. For hours and perhaps days, she can think of nothing else as her bladder controls her life. And while these common bacterial infections are not life-threatening, they are temporarily life-shattering. Cystitis won't kill you, but it does make life miserable.
Cystitis can occur at any time in males and females of any age. Children, grandmothers, husbands, and sisters can develop it, for various reasons. It is most common, however, in sexually active women. So to begin explaining how bladder infections develop in healthy people, we'll start with Tricia's story.
It was Monday morning. Tricia woke up and stretched, remembering the delightful evening before. It had started with a dinner date and wonderful conversation and ended with Tricia in the arms of her favorite man.
But now, as she sipped a first cup of coffee before work, she noticed something was not right. She had a strange need to urinate. There was a tingling sensation in her urethra and a feeling of pressure in her lower abdomen.
She had the feeling that she needed to go to the bathroom and needed to go now. First, while on the toilet, she removed her diaphragm. It had been in place about eight hours now, and she felt assured that it had worked correctly.
Moments later, Tricia's feeling of well-being was shattered. When she urinated, it hurt horribly.There was a searing, burning sensation as warm urine trickled out of her bladder. It felt as if someone were pouring acid on an open wound. She squeezed out everything she could and went back into the other room.
She thought, What am I going to do? At work, she had a report to finish before a 2:00 p.m. committee meeting and at least a dozen telephone calls to make. This felt like a bladder infection coming on. She knew from experience that it could knock her out of action for several days. She gulped down three glasses of water and went to work.
At the office, Tricia's symptoms grew worse. When she went to the bathroom, she noticed her urine was a smoky color. Later, there was a bit of blood on the tissue.
A colleague gave her cranberry juice and a vitamin C tablet. Another told her to wash her vagina with copious amounts of cool water. But Tricia developed a gnawing pain around her pubic bone and it seemed every time she urinated, the pain was more intense.By 4:00 P.m., Tricia was in agony. She desperately wanted medical help. All the water, cranberry juice, and vitamin C had not helped. She couldn't stand the discomfort any longer. What went wrong? Why did this happen now?
Cystitis and Your Anatomy
Women who develop bladder infections constantly ask these questions. Why me? Why now? To understand what went wrong, you need to understand how your urinary tract is supposed to work and to know which parts of your body are affected by cystitis.
Amazingly, most women do not know where their urethra is located. Many of my patients are embarrassed to tell me they don't know this simple fact. Others think they know where the urethra is located but are way off track.

UK: Waitrose extends myWaitrose scheme
By Katie Smith | 25 October 2011
The myWaitrose card will provide them with offers including money off fuel
UK retailer Waitrose has expanded its myWaitrose scheme by launching a card for customers.
The retailer is working with digital agency Kitcatt Nohr Digitas to give initially a large proportion of Waitrose customers a myWaitrose card, which will provide them with offers including money off fuel.
However, all customers will be able to sign-up online or in stores.
Each month, one myWaitrose cardholder will win back the value of their whole month's shopping, and every month one customer will win a full year's worth of Waitrose groceries, the retailer said.
A spokesperson for the Waitrose said this "isn't a loyalty card in the traditional sense that customers get points" but its rewards Waitrose customers.
Wairose CRM manager Leigh Rengger said: "Our new myWaitrose card is our way of saying thank you and giving more back to our customers. We want to understand more about the food they love and, as the programme develops, we will be able to give them access to exclusive content, offers and experiences which suit their individual tastes and are really relevant to them."
The myWaitrose scheme launched in March 2009.

The problem for the Red Sox is that John Lackey has not been alone.
Yes, the big right-hander is having a year that is on the short list of the worst in franchise history. He was battered and bruised (quite literally) by the Rays for five runs in three innings, leaving the game after getting smoked in the shin by a line drive by John Jaso.
With the outing, Lackey has a 6.30 ERA that would rank as the worst ever by a Sox pitcher with at least 25 starts in a single season. Lackey's ERA suggests that he has been the worst starter in the majors, despite his 12-12 record. He has more games in which he's allowed five or more runs (10) than quality starts (8).
After suffering the defeat in Boston's 7-2 loss to the Rays – a loss that allowed the Rays to inch within 5½ games in the wild card race – Lackey acknowledged that the year-long struggles weigh on him.
"It's not fun. There's definitely some frustration, banging your head against the wall," Lackey told reporters. "I've done everything I can; it's just not working out."
Yet Lackey is merely the poster child for a group of pitchers throughout the organization with ERAs that suggest a string of disastrous results. And that, in turn, suggests that the issues the Sox face could reach far beyond the issue of the rest of the regular season and the composition of the postseason rotation (assuming that the Sox manage to avoid a historic collapse and reach October; despite their horrible 2-7 start to the month, the team is still described by coolstandings.org as having a 96.2 percent likelihood of reaching the playoffs).
Not only has Lackey struggled, but the depth of the rotation for this year and perhaps next has been crushed by injuries and poor performances. As an organization, the Sox appear increasingly to be a team with rotation flaws for 2012 (and possibly beyond), something that raises the possibility that the Sox will have to throw good money after bad this coming offseason.
Clearly, there are tremendous building blocks upon which the Sox can build their rotation going forward. Over a four-year span, Jon Lester has emerged as a legitimate ace, one of the most consistently reliable pitchers in the majors.
Josh Beckett – whose spectacular 2.49 ERA at least in part on an unsustainable .242 batting average on balls in play – is unlikely to repeat his career-best 2011 season, but he's a rotation pillar. While Clay Buchholz has now missed almost three months, his back issue should not prevent him from being a rotation building block in 2012, either.
The problems set in after that.
Lackey is now 57 starts into his Red Sox career. He has a 5.26 ERA (more precisely, a 5.257 ERA). That mark over the past two years is neck and neck with the pitcher whose free agent contract with the Yankees served as the model for Lackey's deal with the Sox, A.J. Burnett (5.264 since the start of 2010).
For the Red Sox, the worst part of Lackey's performance is that he should have been at his best over these two seasons. But he is nearing the end of his age 32 season, and the prospective view of his age 33-35 years isn't terribly promising.
While Lackey had shown some promise during a solid mid-year stretch in July and early August, the improvements in the right-hander's stuff during that period now appear to be fading. In his last four starts, Lackey is 1-3 with a 7.06 ERA, 13 walks and 11 strikeouts.
There hasn't been much of a silver lining. The Sox will likely remain committed to him in 2012, just as they remained committed to Daisuke Matsuzaka through multiple years of disappointment until he blew out this year, because they have little choice.
But if Lackey were a pitcher without a pedigree (or, for that matter, a five-year, $82.5 million contract), it is hard to imagine that he would be given the opportunity to continue struggling in the Sox rotation. Put another way: If he were a free agent this offseason, the Sox would be unlikely to treat him as anything more than a buy-low candidate along the lines of the flyer they took in signing Brad Penny to a one-year deal for the 2009 season.
Lackey is anything but a sure thing at this point. That means that, while he will likely remain a member of the rotation to start 2012, it will be even more incumbent on the Sox to have alternatives available if he cannot become at least a solid, reliable back-of-the-rotation option.
Meanwhile, Matsuzaka will not be a part of the plans for the rotation in 2012 after undergoing Tommy John surgery earlier this year. With most of his next next season slated to be dedicated to the rehab process, there will be at least one vacancy in the Sox' rotation next year.
Tim Wakefield's interminable quest for his 200th career victory notwithstanding, he's been a solid but unspectacular depth option. He has a 6-6 record and 5.03 ERA, following a 2010 campaign in which he was 4-10 with a 5.34 ERA. Those numbers suggest a pitcher who is suited to be a solid insurance option for the rotation, but not one who should be slotted into a blueprint for a rotation.
Entering this season, the 45-year-old suggested that the 2011 season would likely be his last. Even if it is not, it is difficult to envision the Sox offering the free-agent-to-be any sort of role beyond the one in which he started this season.
The Sox appear to have no more answers about Andrew Miller's future than they did when he was first called up in June. He is 6-3, but with a 5.48 ERA, and he's walked nearly as many batters (38) as he's struck out.
The considerable potential of the 26-year-old has been evident in dazzling flashes, but not in any sustained fashion at the major league level. Assuming that he remains with the Sox, he will once again be more a lottery ticket than a certainty – a less-than-ideal option to guarantee a rotation spot.
Bedard has been impressive when on the mound, featuring the sort of strikeout-an-inning stuff that can play in the AL East. But his current health issues (a sore left knee and a lat strain that resulted from his pitching through that injury) have underscored the fragility that has limited him to 52 starts in the last four years.
Like Wakefield, Bedard is a free agent. It remains to be seen whether there is mutual interest in bringing the left-hander back. If he were to re-sign with the Sox, however he, too, would represent a lottery ticket with an uncertain payoff.
The Sox have some solid pitching prospects but no options that are clearly ready to step into a major league rotation.
Kyle Weiland made important, meaningful strides in 2011. He showed an arsenal that has convinced the Sox that he can be a major league starter. Nevertheless, it remains to be seen when he will be ready for such a roll on a permanent basis.
The 24-year-old (he turns 25 on Monday) was dominant for Pawtucket in the first half but something short of that in the second half. He finished the minor league season with an 8-10 record, 3.58 ERA, a solid 8.8 strikeouts per nine innings but a pause-inducing 3.9 walks per nine. The latter figure suggests a pitcher who is still learning how to use his full pitch mix, something best accomplished in the minors rather than the majors.
Weiland will start against Tampa Bay on Saturday, but his place in the rotation has been dictated the rash of injuries (initially to Bedard and Beckett, and now to Lackey) that has hit the Sox rotation. Absent those injuries, Weiland would likely be pitching right now for Triple-A Pawtucket in the International League playoffs. There is more grooming to be done before he would represent an ideal option for the Sox rotation.
Felix Doubront tossed 1 1/3 scoreless innings for the Sox on Friday night. But a pitcher who entered 2011 being viewed as either a potential left-handed relief weapon or a solid major league rotation depth option struggled with both injuries and performance this year. He had a 4.22 ERA in 18 games (16 starts) for the PawSox, and he's logged just 75 innings this year.
When on – and Doubront did have some very impressive stretches for Pawtucket this year – the left-hander features three legitimate big league pitches that suggest a player capable of being a starter. But like Weiland, he might need more seasoning to reach that point.
Moreover, given that he has never thrown more than 129 innings in a season, Doubront's innings will have to be managed. As a pitcher who is out of options, he might be best suited as a swing man who gets innings in the majors in 2012 as a member of both the rotation and bullpen. Again, he does not represent the sort of certainty that the Sox would seek when drawing up the blueprint of their rotation for next year.
Right-hander Alex Wilson had the most consistent season of any Sox minor league this year, showing steady, solid results in Double-A and Triple-A. But even with the significant strides made by the hard-throwing right-hander, he has made only four starts in Triple-A. His ability to get swings and misses with his fastball and slider – and the need to refine a third pitch – suggest a pitcher who will get more time in Triple-A to determine whether he can ultimately be a starter or if his big league future will be as an impact reliever.
Junichi Tazawa has impressed in his return from Tommy John surgery, moving up to Pawtucket and putting himself in the mix as a potential September call-up after the PawSox' season ends. However, he has averaged fewer than three innings per appearance as the Sox slowly rebuild his arm strength. It would be nearly impossible to project him as a member of the Red Sox' big league rotation come April.
Further down in the organization, Stolmy Pimentel entered the 2011 season looking like a pitcher with a chance to make a big league impact in early 2012. Instead, he went 0-9 with a 9.12 ERA in Double-A Portland before being demoted to High-A Salem, where he regained his footing while going 6-4 with a 4.53 ERA.
Also in Salem, Drake Britton sabotaged any visions of a potential fast track to the majors while going 1-9 with a 6.91 ERA. Anthony Ranaudo, viewed as the top pitching prospect in the Sox system, had a solid first year as a pro, but he spent only half the year in High-A, where he went 5-5 with a 4.33 ERA in 16 starts.
The Sox still regard Pimentel, Britton and Ranaudo highly, believing that all three feature tremendous stuff. Even so, for the purposes of the 2012 rotation, they won't be realistic options.
While Chris Balcom-Miller turned in a better season than his 4.81 ERA in Portland might suggest (the Sea Dogs' defense was horrific), the 22-year-old (who struck out 8.6 and walked 3.3 batters per nine innings at two levels this year) won't be a big league option until he receives more minor league seasoning.
In short, the Red Sox system does not feature any starters who are obviously ready to slot into the big league rotation for 2012. It would take something of a leap of faith to go with any of those pitchers.
The Red Sox will thus enter next year in an uncertain state similar to what currently prevails.
At the least, the identity of the No. 5 starter remains unsettled. The Sox certainly have candidates who would merit consideration – chiefly Miller, Doubront and Weiland, all of whom are under team control for next year. But while those three represent possible rotation options, none has demonstrated that he is clearly ready for such a role.
Of course, a roll of the dice on a fifth starter would represent a tolerable risk in a world in which Lackey, as a fourth starter, represented at least an approximation of what he was with the Angels. But right now, he doesn't. Instead, he's performed at the level of one of the worst pitchers in the majors for two years.
And so, the Sox will face some challenging options this winter. They may feel compelled to jump once again into the very free agent waters that they typically try to avoid, a place where pitchers like Lackey and Burnett (and soon, perhaps, someone like C.J. Wilson) get long-term deals in excess of $16 million per year. Perhaps a hard push for older pitchers who would seek fewer guaranteed years (Mark Buehrle, Roy Oswalt) would prove compelling.
The team could also plunge back into the market for Japanese pitchers, with Yu Darvish expected to be the biggest pitching prospect to be posted since the Sox brought Matsuzaka over following the 2006 season.
Alternately, the team could consider shifting a current member of the big league bullpen – Alfredo Aceves would seem the most likely candidate given his 2.57 ERA in 14 outings of three or more innings, though Daniel Bard has discussed his potential interest in starting – to the rotation.
That proposition, too, would carry risk, but the consequences of disappointment would be less crushing than a long-term deal for a free-agent.
Whatever direction the Sox choose to go in, it is becoming increasingly clear that the struggles of Lackey's season will be difficult to compartmentalize. As much as his performance has created uncertainty for the Sox going forward in 2011, the impact on seasons to come could be just as far-reaching.

A demo site (off my main domain) has recently been compromised so I thought I'd point it out in case anyone else has had a similar experience.
Basically someone's uploaded a LOAD of spammy html pages directly into my WordPress uploads directory. They also took the trouble of creating a sitemap.xml file in there too that listed all these rubbish spam files, and then submitted it to various search engines.
I only even noticed I'd been hacked at all because in my Google Webmaster Tools I saw the "URLs restricted by robots.txt - 246". I thought this unusually high for my site and upon looking at the list of 246 files saw hundreds of files like "http://www.tmrw.co.uk/demosite/wp-content/uploads/2007/topic-1022.html" indexed - files I've never uploaded or personally put on my site. I had a look on my server and there was indeed a whole other website living in my uploads directory.
Thankfully http://www.tmrw.co.uk/demosite/ spider crawling was restricted by my robots.txt file and therefore hasn't been indexed properly (although google webmaster tools does now tell me the most common words it sees on my site are C*sino, S*x, L*sbian etc - which is a load of rubbish), and I asked my host to immediately delete all these spam files from my server.
So problem solved, spam removed.
Except I'm not sure how it got hacked in the first place. Permissions on http://www.tmrw.co.uk/demosite/wp-content/uploads/ were set so only my server can write to the folder, no ftp access etc, and I'm pretty sure no one manually logged into my demo site and uploaded the 1000's of files via the wordpress media uploader, so how they got in there I'm non the wiser. All my passwords etc are randomly generated 20 digit strings too, so guessing them seems out of the question?
What's also confusing is that I thought I was the only one who knew about http://www.tmrw.co.uk/demosite/ at all, I'd not submitted it to any forums etc and my robots.txt was restricting indexing just in case. All I can think is that someone saw what directory's I was trying to restrict with my robots file and went after one of them.
Anyway, keep an eye out on your uploads directory, protect it the best you can and make sure no one's making an evil little nest of spam in there.

BOSTON--The shortstop of the future has just had his timetable adjusted.
Jose Iglesias is on his way to Boston from Scranton, Pa., where the Pawtucket Red Sox are playing this weekend, because the Red Sox are not certain of the availability of veteran Marco Scutaro and do not want to go into Sunday's game against the Minnesota Twins without a backup for Jed Lowrie.
Scutaro was lifted from Saturday's game against the Twins in the eighth inning because of an injury on his left side, possibly in the rib cage area. His departure for pinch-hitter J.D. Drew left the Sox in the rare position of having to sacrifice their DH, since Kevin Youkilis, who began the game as DH, entered the game at third as Jed Lowrie moved from third to short to take Scutaro's place. At the time, the score was still 2-0, though the Sox tacked on two more runs to take a 4-0 lead into the ninth. Closer Jonathan Papelbon, who entered in the top of the ninth, was listed to bat. Papelbon has never hit in the big leagues, but made it moot by setting down the Twins in order.
Enter Iglesias. After collecting three hits in Pawtucket's 7-6 win over Scranton-Wilkes-Barre, the Yankees' Triple-A farm team Saturday afternoon, the 21-year-old Cuban defector left the club to fly to Boston, and is expected to be in the Sox clubhouse Sunday morning. Will he play? That is still to be determined, though a club source said late Saturday night that he is "likely" to be activated, depending on the medical evaluation of Scutaro's status Sunday morning.
Which raises the question: Is he ready to play? Defensively, that is not an issue. Even though he is in just his second season of pro ball in the U.S. after signing a four-year, $8.25 million contract with Boston in Sept. 2009, Iglesias has been widely praised for his extraordinary skills in the field, especially his lightning-quick hands. This past winter, Iglesias lived in Miami and worked out with both Alex Rodriguez of the Yankees and Scutaro, both of whom were effusive in their praise. Is he Ozzie Smith or Omar Vizquel? Let's let him play in the big leagues first before we get carried away.
Offensively, however, he remains a work in progress. He finished the month of April in Pawtucket with a .227 average and no extra-base hits, and under ordinary circumstances probably wouldn't have been Boston's first choice to call up. The more logical candidate was Yamaico Navarro, who plays third and short and was batting .329 for the PawSox until straining an oblique muscle last week. Navarro was placed on the 7-day DL on Saturday, leaving an opening for Iglesias.
Iglesias's three hits Saturday raised his average for the month of May to .333 (7 for 21) and his overall average to .253, though his overall batting line remains abysmal: .278 on-base percentage, .253 slugging percentage, and .531 OPS (on base plus slugging). Clearly, he remains a work in progress as the Sox try to refine his approach at the plate: All 22 of his hits this season have been singles, and he has walked just twice while striking out 17 times. Those kind of numbers raise concerns that he could be another Rey Ordonez in the making, another Cuban shortstop whose weak bat overshadowed his good glove and short-circuited his big-league career with the Mets.
It's way too early to make that judgment, though it is all but certain Iglesias's stay in the big leagues will be a short one. This time. But for a player who left his mother back in his native Cuba to pursue his ambition of playing in the big leagues, Mother's Day will represent a start.

Trailer for a new sci-fi film co-written by -- and starring -- Noel Clarke.
There's a new "Fullmetal Alchemist" movie coming to theaters in January. Though I don't watch a whole lot of anime, I enjoyed this series a lot. What do you think? Would you go see a "Fullmetal Alchemist" movie in theaters?
"Awake" is an upcoming NBC show starring Jason Isaacs about a man living in two alternate realities. So far, I think it looks pretty interesting. "Awake" airs March 1st. Will you watch this show?
In celebration of the series's 15th anniversary, (yeah, 15 years ago. Don't you feel old now?) Scholastic is putting out new covers featuring specific scenes from each of the books. Aside from the fact that it still says "Sorcerer's Stone," it's a really nice looking cover. What do you think of it? Is this enough to get you to buy yet another copy of this book?

Major online retailers Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O) and Overstock.com (OSTK.O) on Wednesday told a New York state court that they should be allowed to not charge state sales tax.
The case, in the State of New York Court of Appeals, represents one of the first legal tests of recent "Amazon taxes" meant to make online retailers start charging state sales taxes.
Amazon and Overstock attorneys argued before the court that a 2008 New York law requiring companies with affiliates in the state to collect sales tax was unconstitutional.
For New York, millions of dollars in tax collections ride on the court's decision, expected by June.
Retailers with a physical presence in any state must remit sales tax on purchases made either in a store or online.
But a 1992 Supreme Court decision, Quill Corp v. North Dakota, said retailers lacking a "nexus" of operation in a state need not collect sales tax.
The New York law applies the nexus concept in a novel way. It says that websites with purchase buttons for Amazon or other national retailers get fees based on sales delivered that make the sites local solicitors for the larger retailers.
Lower courts have sided with the state and found in favor of the law. But on Wednesday, some members of the five-justice panel took clear interest in the companies' argument that web referrals do not constitute a local sales force, but rather are something more akin to buying newspaper advertising.
The idea that putting an ad in the newspaper makes the paper an advertiser's sales force is "absurd" argued Randy Mastro, a partner with law firm Gibson Dunn, representing Amazon.
Steven Wu, attorney for the state, said web purchase buttons differ from advertising. "Advertising gets people to the door of a business, soliciting gets them to the register," said Wu.
Between the law's passage in 2008 and February 2012, online-only retailers collected and remitted to New York $360 million in sales tax on more than $4 billion in transactions, according to the state's Department of Taxation.
Legislation that could resolve these issues has been introduced in the U.S. Congress, but has not come to a vote. The issue may end up before the U.S. Supreme Court. Mastro said the case will be appealed no matter the result.
The cases are Overstock.com v. New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, New York State Court of Appeals No. APL-2012-00017, and Amazon.com v. New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, New York State Court of Appeals No.APL-2012-00045.

Toll Free North Carolina Addiction Help Hotline: 1-888-565-6401
North Carolina Addiction Recovery CentersThe abuse and misuse of alcohol, street drugs, prescription drugs, over the counter medications and alcohol is a problem in North Carolina among residents in all age groups. Street drugs like crack cocaine, heroin, marijuana, methamphetamine and ecstasy are easy to find and abused by many people. The misuse of prescription drugs is also becoming a major concern throughout the United States and many young people are beginning to prefer abusing pain pills, antidepressants, and other legal medications to get high. Alcoholism, binge drinking and underage drinking takes place in every state and North Carolina is dedicated to preventing substance abuse, drug addiction and alcoholism throughout their state through education, awareness, prevention, and intervention.
ADCNC is the Alcohol & Drug Council of North Carolina and they work hard to reduce the human suffering and economic cost of alcoholism and other abuse and addiction. The belief of ADCNC is that addiction is a chronic yet treatable disease and alcohol and other substance abuse addiction is preventable.
- North Carolina Methamphetamine Addiction Help
Meth is a very serious stimulant that can cause tolerance then addiction very fast for some people. Many drug users prefer meth because the euphoria and other effects last for quite a long time compared to a lot of other street drugs, sometimes as long as 12 hours. Not only can a person become addicted to meth easily this drug destroys a person's health, appearance, and eventually their life if they don't get help. Most people who abuse meth frequently are in need of intense treatment because this is one street drug that's not easy to overcome when you're addicted to it.
At one time the local production of methamphetamine in North Carolina was a bigger problem than it is now. Even though local meth labs are declining in North Carolina when it's apparent someone's cooking meth their Law Enforcement sees to it that it's shut down. Crystal meth is referred to as 'ice' among drug dealers and many meth users in North Carolina. Ice that's produced in Mexico is easily found in North Carolina in the bigger metropolitan areas of the state and is beginning to increase in the rural areas.
- NC Cocaine Addiction Resources
Cocaine is another very powerful street drug that is used to get high that's easily found in North Carolina. Crack cocaine is a form of cocaine that's preferred by many cocaine users because it's easily found, smoked, and doesn't take long to create euphoric effects. In rural towns and in the bigger cities crack cocaine isn't very hard to find.
Cocaine no matter what form is very addictive and causes serious mental and physical health issues for anyone that abuses this drug. Not only can cocaine use cause addiction but it can lead to a heart attack or stroke among other serious health problems. In spite of the serious consequences involved with cocaine use people still use this stimulant drug and the demand is high in many areas throughout the United States so illegal cocaine drug trafficking isn't going to stop.
- Heroin Abuse in North Carolina
Fortunately the use of heroin isn't very prevalent in the state of North Carolina. There are a few areas where heroin is problematic but not a big problem throughout the state. Heroin is a very dangerous and addictive drug and in many other states, is widely abused. Even though heroin use isn't extremely prevalent in North Carolina there are some that do abuse the drug and eventually get caught.
- Club Drugs and Ecstasy Abuse
Some of the drugs that fall into the 'club drug' category include GHB, LSD, and Ecstasy, these drugs are primarily abused by young people and many college students throughout the United States. Ecstasy is very popular among young people especially when used at rock concerts, dance clubs and party scenes. Young people like the fact that using ecstasy helps them stay awake and they feel much less inhibited or self-conscious. If a person continues to use ecstasy on a frequent basis they can become addicted but fortunately many don't because of the unpleasant side effects of the drug. Never the less, ecstasy is a dangerous drug and there are many young people in North Carolina that ecstasy use is popular among.
- NC Marijuana Addiction is a Promlem
The use of marijuana is very high in North Carolina as it is throughout the United States. There isn't a problem finding marijuana in North Carolina either between local sources and cannabis that's smuggled across the border from Mexico and brought into the state. Out of all drugs of abuse, marijuana is the most commonly abused in the state of North Carolina.
As in many states marijuana is illegally grown by some people for their own personal use and for intentions to sell. Illegal grow operations in North Carolina are sometimes discovered and fortunately shut down.
- Prescription Medication Addiction in North Carolina
Medications that are prescribed for the managing pain like Vicodin and OxyContin are becoming drugs of abuse among young and older people and are extremely addictive and dangerous when misused. Medications that are used to treat anxiety and problems sleeping are also being abused to get high. Abusing prescription drugs are dangerous enough by them self but there are a lot of people that combine them with other drugs or alcohol to intensify the effects and risk serious health consequences including death.
North Carolina as well as many other states has a monitoring program to help monitor these controlled substances called PDMP. A PDMP is an electronic prescription drug monitoring program to help monitor and deter prescription drug abuse and diversion.

Objectives: To compare women's reactions to their experiences of vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) with their reactions to their previous cesarean birth experiences, to identify the factors that influenced the women's decision to attempt VBAC, and to describe the causes the women ascribed to the outcome of their birth experiences.
Design: An exploratory descriptive study derived from the Roy Adaptation Model of Nursing.
Setting: Hospital postpartum unit.
Participants: Thirty-two women who had experienced a VBAC.
Main outcome measures: The Perception of the Birth Scale and an investigator-developed questionnaire.
Results: The women reported moderately positive perceptions of the VBAC experience. However, the mean score was lower than previously reported means for vaginally delivered women. A statistically significant association (χ2=22.70, p<0.0005) was found between type of delivery and adaptive and ineffective responses within the Roy Adaptation Model modes, with a greater proportion of adaptive responses to the VBAC than the previous cesarean. Information from Obstetricians, nurses, family members, and print media influenced women's decisions to attempt the vaginal birth. Most causes ascribed to the successful VBAC came from external sources, were particular to a given pregnancy, and were beyond the woman's control.
Conclusions: The women reported both positive and negative aspects of childbearing, regardless of mode of delivery. The results indicate a need for a high quality of nursing and obstetric care for all women, with an emphasis on relief of pain and the provision of support and information.
