GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. The school board unanimously approved a resolution at Tuesday night's meeting giving Mesa Valley Vision Home and Community Program an extension for applying to become a charter school. The normal deadline is the end of October.
Mesa Valley Vision Home and Community Program is an alternative academic option for students in District 51. The program is accredited for a K through 12 public contract school that supports home and community based learning.
The school needs to apply to become a charter school so it will stay in compliance with the federal 'no child left behind' mandate.
"Becoming a charter school would enable Mesa Valley Vision to continue to offer the excellent model of education that we now do and still be in compliance with no child left behind law," says Ron Royball, Director of Academic Options with District 51.
The program has around 400 students, and other than the name change - to Mesa Valley Home and Community - parents shouldn't expect much else to be different.
Before becoming a charter school there will be two public meetings held, where the public can give their opinions and then the application will be presented in front of the school board for approval.
Also at the school board meeting, Brooke Caster - a math teacher at Mt. Garfield Middle School - was recognized as this year's outstanding mathematics teacher. Then during the meeting, Caster's aunt, Leslie Kiesler, stepped down from her position on the board due to term limits.
Kiesler was elected twice to the board, and was appointed to serve for 2 years before that. In total, she served 10 years on the school board.

Andy Lee Replaces Martin Murray, Fielding-Blackledge Set
By Terence Dooley
Eddie Hearn of Matchroom has confirmed that Liverpool's Rocky Fielding will defend his Commonwealth Super middleweight title against Luke Blackledge at Manchester's Phones 4U Arena on Saturday night. The bout takes place on the undercard of Carl Froch versus George Groves and will be a welcome boost for Blackledge, who was pencilled in to meet Paul Smith for the British belt on December 7th and now gets his first major title crack a couple of weeks early.
Clitheroe's Blackledge, 14-1-2 (5), will hope to wrest the Commonwealth title away from Fielding, but the "Rocky from Stock" is on a roll, he picked up the vacant belt by beating Mohammed Akrong in September and is undefeated, 16-0 (9). Apart from contesting the Commonwealth title, both Fielding, 26, and Blackledge, 23, will be vying to earn the right to challenge Smith, who won the British belt with a scintillating sixth-round stoppage victory over Liverpudlian rival Tony Dodson in June.
Ireland's Andy Lee has also been added to the bill, according to Sky Sports, following Martin Murray's withdrawal from the card, the St. Helens-based middleweight contender was forced to pull out of the big bill after picking up a virus. Lee, 30-2 (21), will help pique the interest of Ireland-based boxing fans — it also gives the fans in attendance a rare opportunity as it is the 29-year-old's first professional appearance on English soil.

Ministry Focus
In Haiti working with Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) who shares the love of Jesus Christ through aviation and technology so that isolated people may be physically and spiritually transformed.
Personal Journey - Call to Christ
Tim: I was raised in a small farming community in upstate NY. I grew up in a bible believing family and was led to Christ when I was 5 or 6 years old. It was plainly explained that I was a sinner in need of a Savior and I knelt at a folding chair, confessed my sins, and put my faith in Christ.
Catherine: I grew up in Pensacola, FL. I professed Christ as my Lord and Savior at the age of eleven through Bible study with my brother. He baptized me in the camp pool that summer.
Call to Missions Service
Tim: My interest in missions was fueled by the numerous missionaries that would come and speak at our church. I committed myself to a life of service at summer camp when I was 12. Through reading aviation biographies God began to give me a real desire for reaching the lost through the tool of aviation. I started flying at 16 yrs. old. Being from a large family, my parents didn't have the money to support my new habit so I began praying for work. I prayed "Lord if you want me to fly, would you show me through giving me a job where I can earn enough to take 1 lesson a week." God supplied a job working on a farm where I made just enough money to fly for 1 hour a week, an exact answer to my prayer! At 17, I joined a special response team and was trained in Paramedics, Firefighting, Police Scuba search and recovery diving, land search and rescue, flight, and disaster relief. At 18, the Lord really opened my eyes and heart towards disaster victims and it was the first time that I saw severely hurting people and how open they were to the Lord. Through all of this I know God has prepared me for serving with MAF in Haiti. The Lord's confirmations continue to occur and this time of "deputation" has been a real time of faith building where God has shown us His favor and hand in our journey. Praise the Lord!
Catherine: My exposure to overseas missions had been very limited. All the missionaries I knew of were male preachers and since I was focused on medicine I didn't see how I could be used as a foreign missionary. Until meeting Tim in 2000, I had never considered overseas missions because I was never going to be a "male preacher"! Tim told me about a very practical mission organization that he was pursuing which used airplanes to help share the gospel and meet physical needs. Marrying Tim, I knew that service in overseas missions was likely in our future and the Lord revealed how, as a Physician Assistant, I could serve Christ. I have been blessed to work in Infectious Disease, specifically HIV, Hepatitis and TB medicine. Working with HIV+ patients has grown my compassion for their suffering. Looking back on the past five years of my work career I never could have planned how well this training and experience could prepare me for ministering in Haiti.
Fruits of Our Labor
Since 1986, MAF has enabled the work and maximized the effectiveness of Christian workers and agencies in Haiti. MAF missionary families and Haitian staff members fly and maintain three aircraft, servicing over 14 airstrips from a base of operations in Port-au-Prince.
In the past 12 months, the MAF program in Haiti ...
Executed 1,716 flights
Transported 6,276 passengers
Delivered 333,549 pounds of cargo
Prayer Requests
- Political Stability in the country.
- Several regions in Haiti have been experiencing severe drought. Please pray for rain in the northwest part of Haiti.
- Please pray for the safety for our children and wisdom in parenting.
- Please pray for safety while driving on the roads of Port au Prince. Please pray for safety while flying in rugged terrain as well as over water. Praise the Lord for another year of accident free flying!
- Please pray for real friends to be able to connect and fellowship with.

But ironically I pray for a Romney/Ryan victory nationally.
I still believe they will get 300+ EVs...

Corporate Advocacy Program™
It all started with a flier AD from Miami my mother in law sent me... I called the Miami RFW and they verified that the ad that I was looking at was valid "a Leisure Bay Spa that started from $999.00 (it is a very nice looking spa "in the picture").
I explained that I lived in North Fl. and that I needed a nearest location if they had one, he directed me to the RFW in Jacksonville and that not to worry they would honor the AD there.
I called the Jacksonville store and spoke to "Oscar" (probably not his real name anyway)he stated that "YES" they had the advertised spa BUT if I waited until Thanksgiving weekend they would have better deals. I did tell "Oscar" I lived 80 miles away from Jax and that I would only concider driving that far if the deals were there,NOT TO WASTE MY TIME. He insisted that the deals would be there.
When I walked in the showroom sales rep, Dottie Blaes, jumped to assist me. I told her I was there for the Thanksgiving weekend specials and a spa they should have for $999.00. She then walked me to a spa (which looked like a cheap coffin)to put it in better terms it was cheap T 1/11 plywood surrounding a kiddie pool.
Anyway, she said it included the cover and that delivery was a dollar a mile, then she "changed her mind" and said "no it's $200. for delivery and $1 a mile after 30 miles. I told her I would think about it I also mentioned I needed a pool advertised as "overstock" for $599.00 she showed me a pool told me it included: step ladder, pump, liner,etc... so I left the store went to a public phone and called the Miami RFW spoke to "Mike" a sales rep, he said the 1z spa (the one pictured in the ad)was $799.00 incl. the cover.
I went back to the store showed Dottie the ad and told her what "Mike" had said. Her response was "I hate when they do this, they put a picture in the ad that's not the real spa" she took the ad to her Mgr. who said "where did you get that ? Home Depot?" when I explained it was an ad for ALL RFW's his low comment was "you must be one on the lucky ones"(in a sarcastic tone)
At that time Dottie advised me that ,Yes, she would get me the same spa she showed me at first for $799.00 but that didn't incl. the cover. The cover would NOW be $300.00 so now the spa that was all inclusive for $999.00 is $1099. plus delivery and that the pool which was also all inclusive no longer included the PUMP!!!
Dottie's Mgr. now ran up to us and nastily offered to call my "bluff and "speak" to "Mike" in Miami to verify what I was telling them ... God forbid I would try to scam them!
I accepted his offer to call the Miami store but when he reached them so he said my "Mike" was not in today it was his day off. It was at this time that I decided to cut my losses and drive 80 miles back home without a spa and without a pool.
I spent my Saturday, gas money, and hope of purchasing
"RECREATIONAL ITEMS" in vain. When I got home I went online and found this wonderfull website and feel that warning others about this place of business is my duty as a fellow consumer.

So glad I found this plug-in. Some of my clients just don't get that they need to resize images before uploading them. Now I don't have to worry about it! Thank you.
Quick and easy plugin to use there are 3 settings which are obviously required and then when you upload your large image it seamlessly works so it is definitely worth all 5 stars.
Keeps my clients from saturating their web space with high res images from their phones, cameras, etc. I set it to the largest size needed on the site and done!
Does what it claims to do.
just what i needed to control the demension of the uploaded image.
great plugin !
Just what I was after on my multi user client site
Tested on WordPress 3.5.1 Multi-site environment. Thank you for this useful tool.

Dance your cares away. A fusion of high and low impact exercise, Carnival Slam is a Caribbean-themed fitness class inspired by the Notting Hill Carnival. Combining exercise and dance, the class encourages you to get your groove on and fight the flab at the same time.
A multi-defining workout, a Carnival Slam class aims to improve agility, speed, strength, power and flexibility all to the beat of the bongo drums. A well-documented form of cardiovascular exercise, dancing is a great way to stay in shape as it targets the body from head to toe and helps improve your posture, flexibility and body lineage. It's also a great way to boost circulation and is one of the most social forms of exercise you can partake in.
Probably best avoided if you're more of a waltzing Matilda, these high-impact bootie-busting sessions are said to be the equivalent of a Body Attack and Pilates class, so whether you choose the class as a one-off bout of fun in the lead up to carnival season or you sign up for a course, there's no denying it'll help keep the pounds at bay.
Dancing can be enjoyed by anyone and everyone but if you have any sports injuries or are unsure about what to expect, talk to the instructor before you sign-up. Loose and comfortable clothing is a must and always carry a bottle of water so you can rehydrate your body in between busting those moves.
Notting Hill Carnival is on 24th and 25th August (in 2008). The Carnival Slam classes will be available at all London LA Fitness Clubs from 18th August and they are hoping for a nationwide rollout of the classes in the foreseeable future.

Hi, I've been using a flash based plugin which works but I'm very interested in replacing it with the MP3-jPlayer for compatibility reasons.
I need to be able to display the player on blog / post list pages - so even when showing only the excerpt in the post list. This works at the moment using the following code with my existing plugin:
<?php $customField = get_post_custom_values("player60");
if ($customField) insert_audio_player( $customField[0]); ?>
I wondered if there is similar code that I can use in my template to display the jPlayer? Any advice appreciated!

sustantivo (plural triclinia /trʌɪˈklɪnɪə/ /trɪˈklɪnɪə/)
1A dining table with couches along three sides, used in ancient Rome.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- You can see how a triclinium was used to entertain in another fresco, the symposium scene from the Casa dei Casti Amanti in Pompeii.
- Round the perimeter of the room is usually a continuous bench seat (a very distant relation of the Mediterranean triclinium?) which, like the walls and floor, is covered with patterned ornamental fabrics and cushions.
- Clytemnestra led Miri to a place at the head of the triclinium removed from Germanicus and Agrippina, but she noted, several heads above some very important people from the city.
1.1A room containing a triclinium.
Oraciones de ejemplo
- From the villa rustica known as the Villa Carmiano are three frescoed walls from the triclinium, the sitting room, in which three couches in a U shape typically faced a view, in the case of Stabiae, of the Bay of Naples.
- Typical larger Roman houses had a special dining room, the triclinium.
- The ante-room to the triclinium had a fine mosaic floor of which three panels survive, showing the seasons spring, summer, and winter.
Latin, from Greek triklinion, from tri- 'three' + klinē 'couch'.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
The ripoff report has become such a popular place for ex-employees of ME to post their qualms that those postings now show up as the 3rd and 4th hits on a google search for marcus evans. Try it!
THG is not a career. Heck, it's not even a real job. Telemarketing people that you can't get on the phone is like talking to your dead grandmothers grave: you know she's there, you just can't get through to her. THG offers a strict telemarketing regime that starts at 8:00am until 5:00pm. In those 8 hours you are expected to make 150+ calls, reach 10-20 "decision-makers", and send out 2-4 proposals all for less than $10/per/hour after taxes.
At this company, you have absolutely no value until you sell something. I mean, you don't even get health insurance and benefits until your 6th month.
The reason for this is that 10 people are hired every week. Of those 10, 6 will quit or get fired in the first week. This is THG's tool to ensure that the people (sheep) who stayed are scared and submissive.
In the interview they will tell you that you should expect to make $100,000 in your first year and that their are continuous training programs. First off, if it sounds to ggod to be true, IT IS. Nobody has EVER made that much in their first year. The only people that do are the GM's weasels who inherit the accounts of people who quit or got fired. Keep this in mind...if you do manage to close a deal, get ready to be fired. Why would they keep you? That sale pays for your salary and nearly every other person who is on your team. If they fire you, the GM can take over the account because it's not like it matters to the client: all you are is a telemarketer and every telemarketer is the same.
The training programs are obvious and should not be used a selling point for the job when they interview you. EVERY company offers sales training. marcus evans might do more training but this is only because they prefer the youngest, most intellectually devoid people they can find, thus, it is harder to train them.
That being said, it IS possible to make a sale or two at the company, however is is not likely. It's even less likely that you would enjoy this job no matter how much money you make. Then there are the 30-something year olds who have been doing it for 5 years. They are so broke that they bum cigarettes, live with their mom, and can't even afford to think about building a life for themselves. Can you imagine trying to raise a family and support a wife on $1500/per/month and the off-chance that you MIGHT make a sale that month and that you have absolutely NO job security. Again, it is not a real job.
marcus evans and THG are blacklisted in corporate america. Every gatekeeper, at every major company knows not to transfer calls from THG telemarketers. Some companies are so overcalled that they threaten to go to the authorities if it persists. This forces THG telemarketers to use fake names and fake company names in order to try to get the right person on the phone. Many companies and even countries have taken legal action against marcus evans, but to no avail. Changing your company names help to keep you out of court i.e. Marcus Evans changed to marcus evans and SMG turned to THG.
They can hide from the law, but not from the Ripoff Report. With your help, THG and marcus evans will be further blacklisted by having these reprts at the top of the results page in google. This helps future employees to know what they are getting into before they waste time, money and self-worth on such an evil empire.

While I was buying a ticket Saturday afternoon to tour the archaeological dig of Chateau St. Louis, the remains of the original fort and governors' houses in Québec City, I was wished a "bonne fête" (happy holiday). The Parks Canada employee had to remind me that "c'est le quatre Juillet!" ("it's the Fourth of July!") Duh. I had spent all morning and most the afternoon at the Cathedral on a top-secret mission, and I think my brain was working so hard trying to speak and read French again that the American holiday fell completely out of my consciousness.
Having spent Independence Day weekend with our Francophone neighbors to the North, I may be particularly susceptible to this argument by Dylan Matthews, "3 Reasons the American Revolution was a Mistake." After all, the people of Québec famously refused Benedict Arnold's kind offer to join with their southern neighbors to throw off the yoke of British tyranny. The legacy of more than a century of warfare with rabidly anti-Catholic New England colonists made Anglo-Americans unreliable allies in the eyes of most Canadians, to say the least.
Here's Matthews's argument, in brief–first and foremost, slavery ended sooner in the British empire, and he uses Canada as a compelling counter-example for U.S. Americans to consider:
Abolition in most of the British Empire occurred in 1834, following the passage of the Slavery Abolition Act. That left out India, but slavery was banned there too in 1843. In England itself, slavery was illegal at least going back to 1772. That's decades earlier than the United States.
This alone is enough to make the case against the revolution. Decades less slavery is a massive humanitarian gain that almost certainly dominates whatever gains came to the colonists from independence.
Second, the American Revolution was really bad for First Nations peoples–not that Canada's record is awesome, just less awful than U.S. imperial expansion: Continue reading

Noah and the Whale
Hi folks! Welcome back to the blog. So I thought I would introduce you to a band I have recently come across. I very rarely listen to the charts as I find pop music extremely cheesy, repetitive and pretty uninspiring but what I love to do is use you tube and Spotify and will always click on a random musician that pops up. So I was listening to a playlist that I had chosen featuring a random selection of Folk and Indie artists and a band called Noah and the Whale popped up. I really liked the sound they were creating so I then went on to play more of their songs. I realised I had heard some of them before but didn't know who the songs were by. Well I thought that they were that good that they deserved a blog entry dedicated to them! Read more
A World Without the Fifth Beatle
It's a sad week in that George Martin, producer of most of the material recorded by the Beatle's, died yesterday at 90 years of age. Often referred to as the "5th Beatle, Martin signed the band onto their first record contract in 1962 and went on to produce most of their hits over the following 8 years. Read more

What music does everyone like? I am so glad I was brought up listening to a whole range of different styles. I feel like listening to Elvis one day and Black Sabbath the next, from Daft Punk to Debussy. I am of the opinion that you should at least try and appreciate different styles. You never know what you might end up liking. Of course it is ok to not like certain styles, but to dismiss them and saying something derogatory without properly listening, is very ignorant and it really grinds my gears! Read more

Transcontinental Railroad
Transcontinental Railroad Websites
The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History's quarterly online journal put together a fantastic issue on nineteenth century technology a few years ago. There's an essay, called "Transcontinental Railroads: Compressing Time and Space," by the historian Richard White that provides a great introduction to thinking about the railroad and its significance for American society and culture. There is also a link to a page of additional resources with a solid bibliography and some interesting links.
The same web journal did an issue on the American West that provides a broader historical context in which to understand the significance of the railroad. The five, short thematic essays are all worth reading for those interested in a little more perspective.
The Central Pacific Railroad Photographic Museum maintains a page with an absolutely mind-boggling amount of information. Sifting through some of their online offerings is well worth the time. There are loads of great photos, links to primary source documents, timelines, and answers to just about any question you could think to ask about the transcontinental line.
One of the best organized and most helpful sites on the subject is the companion website to the PBS American Experience series documentary The Transcontinental Railroad. The site includes not only a full transcript of the program, but also pages and pages of supporting information and essays, all well-researched but easily digested. Pay particular interest to the "People & Events" and "Special Features" links. James Surowiecki's article comparing Doc Durant's big scheme to the Enron scandal provides a wonderful way to approach the issue.
American Memory has a very cool interactive railroad maps collection. See the West as the surveyors sketched it and as it came together in the minds of those who mapped it first. The site includes a useful tutorial for working with the collection.
The Union Pacific's corporate web page has a link to history and photos that hosts information from the UP museum.

Reviews of Central Guest House
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
A clean, comfortable and well run hotel
This modern small hotel provides everything that you need with secure parking and clean comfortable rooms. Staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was great.
The position of the hotel is a bit dull and there is only a tiny garden, but it is an easy walk to the centre of town and the shops and not far from the sea front.
Would recommend
Hosts were most welcoming and helpful very good location as was the service, room and food.Read more about the whole trip
Central Guest House review
Central Guest House turned out to be what we expected--adequate to very good room and facilities. The breakfast was very good including cooked eggs and bacon with lots of choice, The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful, advising us as to where to go and what to do. Good location a five minute walk to the central down town.
We walked around town several times and drove to Walvis Bay as well. Overall we did not see much reason to return with a group. We spent an entire day on a drive through the Namib desert park and enjoyed that very much. But given the 6 hour drive from Windhoek and the 6 hour drive to Kalala Desert Camp, we are not sure how to make it work to include Swampkomund.
Central Guest House review
Good position for getting into town.
Very clean and efficiently run.
Central Guest House review
It wasn't the hotels fault, but we were overall quite disappointed with Swakoppmund. Not quite the experience we had expected.
Even on the night of the 31st of Dec, the streets were empty and quiet. Most restaurants were closing at 9pm. A lot of the bars/clubs weren't open for NY celebrations.
But the guest house was perfectly fine. Within a walking distance from everywhere.
Central Guesthouse
Perfectly suitable for a stay in Swakopmund.
We can recommend the Fish Deli just down the road. Looks a bit like a cheap cafe, but the fish was excellent. The Living Desert tour with Chris was superb. Can thoroughly recommend this.
A Good Choice
Reviewed 2 weeks ago
Very conveniently situated just a few minutes walk from the main street of the attractive town of Swakopmund. Friendly and efficient staff ensure Central runs like clockwork. Smart and clean, there is a guest lounge with comfortable furniture and complimentary sherry in the evening. Free wi-fi in the public areas. Breakfast is excellent.
There is a complimentary drinks station on the first floor landing but this is not ideal as you are conscious of making a noise which could wake other guests when making an early morning coffee. We had room 6, which though small had our required twin beds and bath/shower, and was fully equipped. The bath was a welcome luxury in what can be the very cool micro-climate of Swakopmund. This is a comfortable base and a good choice.
Central Guest House
Stayed in the family room in the annex building. Bathroom had some mould on the walls and the place had a damp feel and smell. Didn't feel the need to mention this as we only stayed 2 nights.
Staff were very friendly and booked a trip for us. Breakfast excellent.
A good place to stay in Swakopmund.
The guest house is very central as the name implies.
The rooms are comfortable and the staff very hospitable.
Really helpful staff and good location
Comfortable rooms and a good location to walk around town.
Anya, if I spelled that right, was great in helping to sort out our passports being left behind at the previous location. Without her not sure what we would have done.
Breakfasts were really nice too.
Had a great Marine Dune day with Sandwich Harbour 4X4.

Wuthering Heights
by Emily Brontë
Wuthering Heights Theme of Family
Talk about dysfunctional. Does anyone really like each other in this book? Instead of bringing comfort and peace, families in Wuthering Heights are a source of violence, alienation, jealousy, and greed.
The whole mess starts when Mr. Earnshaw tries to expand the family by bringing another child, Heathcliff, to Wuthering Heights. Heathcliff's new siblings won't share their beds, and they welcome him by making faces and spitting at him.
Still, themes of family run throughout. Almost every character is either an Earnshaw or a Linton, or in some cases both. And because Heathcliff is never accepted into either family, he gets revenge by taking everything that they own.
Questions About Family
- Brontë repeats many characters' names. What is the effect of this? Why two Catherines, two Hareton Earnshaws, and so forth?
- What is the effect of making the entire story about only two families?
- Does anyone in the novel have any sense of family loyalty?
- What is Mr. Earnshaw's motivation in bringing Heathcliff into the family?
Chew on This
Brontë emphasizes the Gothic and perverse by making her lovers related to one another. She brings them together not in spite of being related but because of it.

Copper toxicity
A Kayser-Fleischer ring, copper deposits found in the cornea, is an indication the body is not metabolizing copper properly.
|Classification and external resources
|emergency medicine
Copper toxicity, also called copperiedus, refers to the consequences of an excess of copper in the body. Copperiedus can occur from eating acid foods cooked in uncoated copper cookware, or from exposure to excess copper in drinking water or other environmental sources.

|Chalcosis of eye
|Acute copper poisoning
Copper in the blood and blood stream exists in two forms: bound to ceruloplasmin (85–95%), and the rest "free", loosely bound to albumin and small molecules. Free copper normally reduces oxidative stress, as it is involved in the metabolic elimination of reactive oxygen species, such as with the superoxide radical through Cu-Zn dependent superoxide dismutase.[1] Excessive free copper impairs zinc homeostasis, and vice versa, which in turn impairs antioxidant enzyme function, increasing oxidative stress.[1] Chronically elevated levels of copper intake produces zinc deficiency.[1]
Nutritionally, there is a distinct difference between organic and inorganic copper, according to whether the copper ion is bound to an organic ligand.[2][3] Organic copper, like that found in food, is a beneficial micronutrient needed for good health.[4] Inorganic metallic copper, like that found in electrical wire, plumbing pipes, brass fittings, redox water filters, sheet metal, cooking utensils, jewelry and pennies, is a neurotoxic heavy metal linked to physical and psychiatric symptoms on par with mercury and lead.[5][6][7][8]
Symptoms and presentation[edit]
Acute symptoms of copper poisoning by ingestion include vomiting, hematemesis (vomiting of blood), hypotension (low blood pressure), melena (black "tarry" feces), coma, jaundice (yellowish pigmentation of the skin), and gastrointestinal distress.[9] Individuals with glucose-6-phosphate deficiency may be at increased risk of hematologic effects of copper.[9] Hemolytic anemia resulting from the treatment of burns with copper compounds is infrequent.[9]
Chronic (long-term) effects of copper exposure can damage the liver and kidneys.[10] Mammals have efficient mechanisms to regulate copper stores such that they are generally protected from excess dietary copper levels.[10][11]
Those same protection mechanisms can cause milder symptoms, which are often misdiagnosed as psychiatric disorders. There is a lot of research going on regarding the function of the Cu/Zn ratio in many conditions, neurological, endocrinological and psychological.[12][13][14] The diagnostic difficulties arise from the fact that many of the substances that protect us from excess copper perform important functions in our neurological and endocrine systems. When they are used to bind copper in the plasma, to prevent it from being absorbed in the tissues, their own function may go unfulfilled. Such symptoms often include mood swings, irritability, depression, fatigue, excitation, difficulty focusing, feeling out of control, etc. To further complicate diagnosis, some symptoms of excess copper are similar to those of a copper deficit.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) in drinking water is 1.3 milligrams per liter.[9][15] The MCL for copper is based on the expectation that a lifetime of consuming copper in water at this level is without adverse effect (gastrointestinal). The US EPA lists copper as a micronutrient and a toxin.[16] Toxicity in mammals includes a wide range of animals and effects such as liver cirrhosis, necrosis in kidneys and the brain, gastrointestinal distress, lesions, low blood pressure, and fetal mortality.[17][18][19] The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set a limit of 0.1 mg/m3 for copper fumes (vapor generated from heating copper) and 1 mg/m3 for copper dusts (fine metallic copper particles) and mists (aerosol of soluble copper) in workroom air during an eight-hour work shift, 40-hour work week.[20] Toxicity to other species of plants and animals is noted to varying levels.[16]
EPA cancer data[edit]
The EPA lists no evidence for human cancer incidence connected with copper, and lists animal evidence linking copper to cancer as "inadequate". Two studies in mice have shown no increased incidence of cancer. One of these used regular injections of copper compounds, including cupric oxide. One study of two strains of mice fed copper compounds found a varying increased incidence of reticulum cell sarcoma in males of one strain, but not the other (there was a slightly increased incidence in females of both strains). These results have not been repeated.[21]
In cases of suspected copper poisoning, penicillamine is the drug of choice, and dimercaprol, a heavy metal chelating agent, is often administered. Vinegar is not recommended to be given, as it assists in solubilizing insoluble copper salts. The inflammatory symptoms are to be treated on general principles, as are the nervous ones.[citation needed]
There is some evidence that alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) may work as a milder chelator of tissue-bound copper.[22] Alpha lipoic acid is also being researched for chelating other heavy metals, such as mercury.[23]
When acidic foods are cooked in unlined copper cookware, or in lined cookware where the lining has worn through, toxic amounts of copper can leach into the foods being cooked.[24] This effect is exacerbated if the copper has corroded, creating reactive salts.[25] Actual cooking may not be required for copper to leach into acidic liquids if they are stored in copper for a period of time.[26]
Non-sparking tools[edit]
OSHA has set safety standards for grinding and sharpening copper and copper alloy tools, which are often used in nonsparking applications. These standards are recorded in the Code of Federal Regulations 29 CFR 1910.134 and 1910.1000.[27]
Note: The most important nonsparking copper alloy is beryllium copper, and can lead to beryllium poisoning.
Drinking water[edit]
With an LD50 of 30 mg/kg in rats, "gram quantities" of copper sulfate are potentially lethal in humans.[28] The suggested safe level of copper in drinking water for humans varies depending on the source, but tends to be pegged at 2.0 mg/l.[29]
Birth Control[edit]
Estrogen birth control pills may increase the amount of copper in humans, but was not shown to increase absorption.[30] Copper Intrauterine devices (IUDs) have been questioned anecdotally, with people claiming copper toxicity, but there is currently no scientific evidence to substantiate this claim. Estrogen increases the absorption of copper, making women more likely to carry excess copper even when no birth control is used.
The amount of estrogen (or copper) contained in these modern forms of contraception are generally considered safe, and the former restrictions for estrogen use (not to be used by women older than 40, 35 for smokers) were lifted in 1989.
There are conditions in which an individual's copper metabolism is compromised to such an extent that birth control may cause an issue with copper accumulation. They include toxicity or just increased copper from other sources, as well as the increased copper level of the individual's mother via the placenta before birth.[31] The two hormones commonly used in birth control, estrogen and progestin, protect from each other's complications, so a combination method may work best. At least when existing imbalances have been treated.
A significant portion of the toxicity of copper comes from its ability to accept and donate single electrons as it changes oxidation state. This catalyzes the production of very reactive radical ions, such as hydroxyl radical in a manner similar to Fenton chemistry.[32] This catalytic activity of copper is used by the enzymes with which it is associated, thus is only toxic when unsequestered and unmediated. This increase in unmediated reactive radicals is generally termed oxidative stress, and is an active area of research in a variety of diseases where copper may play an important but more subtle role than in acute toxicity.
Some of the effects of aging may be associated with excess copper.[33]
Indian childhood cirrhosis[edit]
One manifestation of copper toxicity, cirrhosis of the liver in children (Indian childhood cirrhosis), has been linked to boiling milk in copper cookware. The Merck Manual states recent studies suggest that a genetic defect is associated with this particular cirrhosis.[34]
Wilson's disease[edit]
An inherited condition called Wilson's disease causes the body to retain copper, since it is not excreted by the liver into the bile. This disease, if untreated, can lead to brain and liver damage, and bis-choline tetrathiomolybdate is under investigation as a therapy against Wilson's disease.
Alzheimer's disease[edit]
Elevated free copper levels exist in Alzheimer's disease,[35] which has been hypothesized to be linked to inorganic copper consumption.[36] Copper and zinc are known to bind to amyloid beta proteins in Alzheimer's disease.[37] This bound form is thought to mediate the production of reactive oxygen species in the brain.[38]
Aquatic life[edit]
Too much copper in water may damage marine and freshwater organisms such as fish and molluscs.[39] Fish species vary in their sensitivity to copper, with the LD50 for 96-h exposure to copper sulphate reported to be in the order of 58 mg per litre for Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and 70 mg per litre for catfish (Clarias gariepinus) [40] The chronic effect of sublethal concentrations of copper on fish and other creatures is damage to gills, liver, kidneys and the nervous system. It also interferes with the sense of smell in fish, thus preventing them from choosing good mates or finding their way to mating areas.[41]
Copper and copper alloys such as brass have been found to be toxic to bacteria via the oligodynamic effect. The exact mechanism of action is unknown, but common to other heavy metals. Viruses are less susceptible to this effect than bacteria. Associated applications include the use of brass doorknobs in hospitals, which have been found to self-disinfect after eight hours, and mineral sanitizers, in which copper can act as an algicide. Overuse of copper sulfate as an algicide has been speculated to have caused a copper poisoning epidemic on Great Palm Island in 1979.[42]

I hold an international medical policy by DAn Europe.
On the 31 August while travelling to Bangkok I suffered a massive congest rite attack , this was due by food poison, I collapsed to the ground at 5 am while at the Morchit bus station in Bangkok,
Soon after I was approached by the local bus station Personal to help me. In meantime also a foreigner Mr . Robert Zotescue while passing by he called to my help.
While in agony I give my DAn insurance detail to Mr.Rober, and he called Dan insurance to forward them my problem.
In meantime an ambulance was called and arrived within half hour . I was rushed to the Hospital.
Before departing I was assured by Robert that DAN insurance would call me within a few hours.
I would like to state that most people at the time were also very scared for the swine flu and a few also in panic.
In the local hospital in Bangkok, ( this was not a private hospital ) I was soon after placed to all kind of blood test and put on drips with medicine and heavy painkillers.
A few hours passed by, 7, 8, and I was still waiting to hear from my insurance company. Soon after I was questioned for the payment of the hospitals by the management and I tried to explain that I had no much funds available at the time and that Dan would take care, as they previously spoke with Robert , and give their impression that all would be take care of.
I also did call my insurance and I run out of credit on my phone I had the local personal to speak to Dan and spelling the name of the Hospital I was in.
Dan failed to understand and they never tried harder again to phone back or even trying to speak to the Doctors.
So at the end still in agony i was forced to dismiss myself because of luck of funds available. I had limited amount of money available. I just managed to pay the bill and left the hospital still in pain and unable to walk.
Now Dan is cancelling my claim as they state that i was not 2 days in The hospital, and their policy only state that I need to be hospitalised 2 day before i get assistance from them.
I also bring at the attention that the same thing happened 4 month ago, then again dan failed to contact the hospital and speak with the doctors.
In meantime they do charge me every year for medical assistance, for which i can never use any kind of benefit.
i do think that D A N should rephrase them self a Deaths Are Nothing.
Their negligence is deliberate and they do misleading the public.
I thank God that i survived this horrendous ordeal. I just wander what would happened if my case was going much worsen and without any support from the medical insurance company. For what they care I could be well dead for them. But I am alive and I am here to take legal action at the mean to expose this to the other fellow members that are using the same insurance.
I am now still in a recovery stage that if well take me a list a week , with no any king of medicasl support.
I wander who need a DAN or DAM insurance.

The failed hospital assistance by DAN
AUTHOR: Faust - (United Kingdom)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, January 05, 2011POSTED: Wednesday, January 05, 2011
Dan is now stating that because I did not stay more then 2 days in the hospital, I am qualify for my claim.
DAN is cover it up dirt under the carpet ! The hospital were I was at the time was in a terrible state, urine and blood on the floor, people laying on the floor with needles drip in their arm.
Who wanted stay more then a day in the same hospital. Maybe one of the DAN secretary would. but for sure not me !
DAN was informed of such situation, never the less they preferred to ignore it.
I was demanded by people in the hospital to pay the starting bill. At the time I had little funds on me , no much cash available. With my last money again I phoned DAN for support. They did were going to call me back , but they never did.
I was left stranded sick, in an hostile place. I could hardly walk. Of course I need, much more medical assistance , of course I needed a better hospital to be in , a private one.
But DAN just washed their hands like PONZIO PILATO did with JESUS CHRIST !
I thank God to be alive today , and I thank him to have given me the strength to walk out from that hospital, otherwise I maybe will not be here today .
SO don ' you t count on DAN . !!

You will also notice that the complete insurance policy is availble and can clearly read about the 2 day rule for non diving emergencies. Also on the brochures we use for publicity is clearly written that for non diving emergencies one of the covers is only valid is hospitalised for 2 days.
Fausto was also aware of this and since his claim can not be reimbursed and he is not happy aout this, it seems he prefered to write lies, bringing DAN unjustified into a bad light.

Essential sounds for the season
Everyone from Cee Lo Green to Lady Antebellum to SpongeBob SquarePants has released songs for the holiday season this year, and so has local soul singer E'ssential, who put her own R&B spin on Christmas standards with her new EP "E'ssential Soul Christmas."

James DeGale vs Mouhamed Ali Ndiaye Clash in Talks
By Terence Dooley & Per Ake Persson
London's James DeGale is currently in negotiations to defend his EBU super middleweight title against Mouhamed Ali "The Power" Ndiaye, according to the EBU. DeGale successfully defended his belt with a fourth-round stoppage of Cristian Sanavia in Denmark on April 21; the 26-year-old southpaw is 12-1 (9) and has regrouped well since May 2011's tight majority decision defeat to local rival George Groves. Nidaye, 32, defended his EBU-EU belt courtesy of a ninth-round corner retirement win over Jose Maria Guerrero on May 26; the Italy-based, Senegal-born boxer holds a 22-1 (13) record and will present "Chunky" with a stiff test.

chunky has been very quiet. still think he's all style no substance, if he gets in the ring with Abraham all the bravado will be unravelled, Paul Smith no offense but he is not a super middleweight and came in…Comment by taansend on 06-08-2012
This bloke is no better than DeGales last opponent. Both DeGale & Groves treading water at the moment.Comment by Gypsy John Fury on 06-08-2012
Haha. Or maybe even Brad Pitt from Oz. :-)Comment by gingerbreadman on 06-08-2012
