Asian Tribune is published by World Institute For Asian Studies|Powered by WIAS Vol. 12 No. 1584
A message with a hidden agenda
Normally greetings on an important occasion consist of good wishes and free from dirty politics. Israeli prime-minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Christmas greeting is made up of radicalization of communities living in peace and harmony.
In his greeting posted on 'You Tube' he says that Christians in the Middle East are under existential threat.
In his message to Christians in Israel and worldwide he is trying to politicize his 'Christmas greeting' into an attack on Muslims and Arabs.
Since he has pinpointed Middle East region, we would like to know from him whether he has got a particular country in mind.
He has boasted about the freedom Christians are enjoying in Israel. I don't expect anyone will be fooled by his 'white-washing' of his country, Israel of what is actually happening there.
We would like to know whether he has read the highly critical investigative report on the subject, broadcast on the CBS-TV '60 Minutes' program and a record number of 'price tag' attacks on churches and monasteries in Israel over the past year.
In the meantime, Israeli embassy in Ireland in its latest post in Facebook says that 'If Jesus were alive, he would be lynched by Palestinians'.
The post on the Israeli embassy in Dublin in Ireland's Facebook page is carrying the image of Jesus and Virgin Mary. We learn that the embassy has apologized to all Irish people for posting such a nasty remark offending Christians, after an unprecedented uproar in the host country.
These are fool proof evidence to show that the people who are supposed to give religious freedom and protection to Christians, in Israel, are those the real threat and not the Arabs in the Middle East, as mentioned in Netanyahu's Christmas greetings.
There is no conflict between Christians and Muslims and in their coexistence in the region. Therefore there is no so called 'existential threat' as made up by the Israeli prime-minister, Netanyahu.

Southwest Florida is not just known for its excellent climate and peaceful communities but it is also known as one of the best spots for inshore and offshore fishing on the whole wide planet. The thrill of catching redfish, snook and one of the many other varieties here cannot be matched by any other experience. This is the dream place for anglers.
However, fishing is not as shown in the movies or as described in the novels. You just cannot drop the line in the water and hope to get a good catch for dinner. You need to know this area before you start having good catches. Here is a little primer on how to go fishing in the back waters of South west Florida.
There are two types of licenses available that are for catch and release or kill. It is very important to have the right license before you start fishing here as you may get in trouble with the authorities and the fines can be severe.
First of all, let us talk about the requirement for license. You need a license if:
You are under the age of 16.
You are ineligible for government assistance and you are planning to fish on your own from your own boat or on the beach.
Getting a license is not at all difficult. Both freshwater and saltwater fishing licenses are available with the Florida Fish and wildlife conservation commission (FWC). There is also a combined license for freshwater and saltwater fishing together. The conservation commission also offers a Gold Sportsman License. This license allows all kinds of hunting and fishing in the State of Florida. For further information on these licenses, you can always call on (888) 347 4356 or (888) 486 8356.
There are many licensed charter boats in the area and the captains of these boards usually buy special licenses which also cover their guests. Therefore, if you are the guest on a licensed charter boat or if you wish to do the fishing from the Naples Pier, you do not need to buy a separate license on your own. However, it is recommended to ask the captain of the charter boat about the fishing license as not every boat has one.
The licenses can be bought online at www.myfwc.com. These are also available offline at the office of the local tax collector.
One should keep in mind that it is not a free for all with these licenses. There are additional restrictions on fishing. Therefore, if you are planning to go fishing for a snook or a tarpon, you will need an additional license on top of the saltwater fishing license from FWC. This additional license also has certain restrictions. The best way to know all of the regulations is to go through a copy of the Florida saltwater recreational fishing regulations by FWC.
Home to both Inshore and offshore Fishing Enthusiasts
As mentioned above, south-western is known worldwide for both inshore and offshore fishing. There is a vast estuary network in the region which makes inshore fishing in the area such a pleasure. There are many shallow grass flats in the region which are perfect for inshore fishing. The usual varieties of fish include redfish, snook, Spanish mackerel and sea trout.
There are wide open areas with lots of shipwrecks and reefs in the region which attract grouper, cobia and permit varieties of fish. These areas are perfect for offshore fishing.
Local secret fishing haunts
The waters are full of fish but finding them is not that easy. Here are some of the secret local fishing haunts.
Naples Pier: You do not need any license for fishing at this place as the city of Naples buys bulk licenses for fishing here. People usually are able to catch Spanish mackerel, Pompano and snook here.
Blind Pass: This is a great place to hook redfish, trout and snook.
San Carlos Bay, Boca Grande, Chokoloskee island and Lover's key state park are also a favorite of the anglers.
Types of Fish and Regulations
As mentioned above, the most common variety of fish available here are Snook, Redfish, Tripletail, Tarpon, Permit, Ladyfish, Snapper, Grouper amongst many others.
All of these fishes have different regulations regarding the fishing season as well as the length of the catch. Snook fishing is open from September through November but one is allowed only one catch in a day and the length has to be between 28 and 33 inches.
For redfish, there is a restriction of up to 2 harvests in a day. It can be caught all year long and the length needs to be between 18 and 27 inches. The tripletail is also limited to 2 harvests in a day and the length must be bigger than 15 inches. It can also be caught all year long.
Tarpon fishing is seasonal and it has the restriction of being fished only with hook and line. There is also a two fish per boat limit. A single Permit can be harvested in a day in most of the areas and the length has to be between 11 and 22 inches. Ladyfish is smaller in size and currently there is no limit on this picky fish.
There are many varieties of Snapper here in Florida and different regulations apply to each one of them. To make matters further complicated, FWC is known to change the bag limits mid season. Therefore, it is best to check the FWC website for the latest regulations.
The Grouper has been made very popular by the fried grouper sandwich. There are many different types of grouper fish here and each one behaves a bit different. These are very territorial and you will not have much difficulty in locating them.
Competitive Tournaments
For competitive anglers, Southwest Florida is a heaven as there are a lot of fishing competitions all year around.
There is the LCEC united way fishing tournament in April and then there is the annual Redsnook competition in November organized by The Conservancy of Southwest Florida. There are also a lot of other tournaments throughout the year and there are even special tournaments for ladies.

My DD has started this type of tic in the recent months. She'll tensely shake her arms up and down real fast. It causes her whole body to bounce. At first I thought it was a way she was exerting energy because she only seemed to do it after sitting for a while (in the stroller or high chair) but she never really did it any other time. Now it's more often. I don't know if she's doing it because it's fun or if it's a problem. One time she did it almost constantly for over an hour. I don't know how she was able to tense up like that for so long. She can willingly stop when asked so she can control it (in a way I guess) but she'll start right up again. Any one have an idea what it could be? I don't even know how to search it online anywhere to find more information on what the problem could be. Any help/suggestions/opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Some kind of nervous tic... Advice!

My daughter does a weird thing where she puts her hands between her legs, tenses up and rubs her hands together while scrunching her face up. It seems to happen when she gets excited about something and doesn't know how to control her excitement. Almost like she has too much energeny and needs to let it out somehow. It has started to happen more and more often. I have been getting nervous about it as well. Let me know if you find anything out. I was thinking of asking her doctor if it is normal or if I should be worried.
The doctor doesn't seem too worried about her shaking like that. Her biggest concern is the not talking. She's almost positive there's nothing wrong but recommended we have her tested to see if she may need speech therapy. The shaking is not second in line to the talking.

He does it at bed time and will blow air out his nose, he started doing it in the car while he eats we cant figure out what the heck hes doing I ask him to stop and he does? any ideas

Arizona Cardinals
Cards' defense continues to earn praise
November 29, 2012: Rex Ryan the lastest in a long line to speak highly of the defense
It started Week 1; and it's continued each week thereafter: NFL head coaches praising the Cardinals defense when speaking to the local media on the weekly conference call.
"They're really a problem," Pete Carroll said.
"They're impressive," Joe Philbin said.
"They will hit you," Chan Gailey said.
"They create havoc," Leslie Frazier said.
Call it coachspeak if you want—Bill Belichick rattled off nine different Cardinals defenders during his chat with reporters, but the message is always the same: praise and respect for one of the top defenses in the league.
"You see one of the best units in the National Football League is what you see (on film)," Andy Reid said before the Eagles visited University of Phoenix Stadium. "It's hard to find weaknesses in them."
The Cardinals defense has been one of the few bright spots in a season growing dim with each passing Sunday.
This week the unit was again a hot topic when Jets head coach Rex Ryan held his conference call:
"I look at the Arizona Cardinals, you look at that defense, and it's one of the best defenses in the National Football League and an extremely talented group," he said unsolicited. "To me, you have four or five Pro-Bowl players on that defense. There are two big guys up front with (Darnell) Dockett and (Calais) Campbell, and then you have Patrick Peterson, that might be one of the rarest athletes I think I've ever seen."
It's this kind of talk—from his peers, that has Ray Horton among the top names on the list of future head coach candidates.

I have never before written a review about a physician. I have great respect for them. However, this one cannot be ignored and it is a warning. Find another doctor and pay attention to the other reviews. They are not exaggerating.
He mistreated and neglected my father's health for two years. He ordered two unnecessary and painful surgical procedures. My father starved and was deprived of pain medication after a short time of being given it. This doctor is very unprofessional and authoritarian towards his staff. Another doctor at Dominican told one of our family members that dad "needs better care". My father died shortly afterwards as Dr. Allari abandoned him and told his nurse not to allow any other doctor to treat my father. He gave an untruthful cause of death. Allari is not only one of the worst doctors I've ever seen, he is also a despicable person. He needs to be brought to justice.
Very caring, thorough, good follow up.
My experience with Dr. Allari (I have a hard time giving him credit for being a doctor at all) was absolutely the most horrifying experience I have ever had. I am in therapy because of his care, or lack of I should say. I complained of chronic back pain and he told me it was all in my head, he ordered me an x-ray that showed nothing so he said there was nothing wrong with me. I finally had to cry and beg an Urgent Care doctor to get an MRI. This doctor called me at home at 9pm a week later to tell me I had a herniated disc that was so degenerated that my only option was surgery, which I had within 6 months of being diagnosed. They wouldn't say it directly, but if the herniated disc would have been diagnosed sooner, there could have been a chance of healing it with a cortisone treatment, but because I had it for so long that there was absolutely no fluid in my disc I had to have surgery. Now I have major nerve damage and partial numbness. He made it very clear I knew nothing and he knew everything because he had M.D. after his name. In all reality he knew nothing and I pity all of his patients because he doesn't think you know anything about your body you live in. I blame him for having to have major surgery. I have 2 kids and risked my life to fix my back. Now I am under pain management with partial numbness and will probably be in pain for the rest of my life and I just turned 37. I think he got his certification online or at Kmart. I appreciate these sites where I feel as though I am finally able to vent and be heard. I see a therapist now to help me get past my anger and frustration, and even though this happened 2 years ago, it feels like yesterday for me.

This guide refers directly to the Zetec black plastic style inlet manifold, so 1.6/ 1.8/2.0 mondeo's and 1.8 mk6 escorts.
The EFI alloy style manifold on 1.6 and early 1.8 105spec zetecs like in the fiesta/escort has the ISCV mounted on the left hand side and is easily acessable from above.
If you find you have a rough idle and the engine cutting out when engaging the clutch - This is obviously quite dangerous when you are approaching a junction, as you loose your steering and brakes.
Or (in my case) a high idle at 1,300rpm+ then the first thing i would suggest is to RESET YOUR ECU Click here for a guide on how to reset your ECU.
If this does not solve your problem (as with me it didn't) then the ISCV may be to blame and if so its time to give your ISCV a good clean out.
To test if the ISCV is functional you will need a multimeter and will need to locate the ISCV connector plug.
This can be done from above the engine. However, if your Throttle Body Intake pipe routes like mine in the picture below (Zetec SE) you will need to remove it for access.
If it routes directly over the rocker cover (Earlier Zetec) then you may not need to remove it.
To remove the piping:
Simply unclip the pipe from your air box via the clips, then unplug the MAF sensor plug. Next, take a flat screw driver and loosen the Large jubilee clip that secures the plastic inlet pipe to your throttle body.
Once loose, the whole pipe should pull clear enough to see the ISCV plug and it should look like this...
Looking from the passenger side, you can see the ISCV connector plug
Close view...
Unclip this plug and use the multimeter testing probes RED probe into the clip for Brown and Black to a good earth
If you removed your inlet piping then you are going to need to put it back on, just slide the pipe back over the throttle body and just slide the pipe into the air filter and clip the MAF plug back in.
First and foremost... if the ISCV is fully functional, just by unplugging it with the engine running will make the revs drop to about 600rpm and it may stall, thats good as its working!
Then start the engine up and test for a voltage, you should see a positive voltage on the brown wire (While mine varied) I'm led to believe you should be looking at about 5 volts... Switch the engine off.
If there is NO difference in the rpm then the ISCV needs cleaning, renewing or you may not have that input voltage on the brown wire.
If there is no input voltage on the brown wire i suggest checking fuses and consulting a good garage who are good with electric diagnotics.
Note: Before proceeding make sure that the pins in the ISCV connector are moved back together so they nearly touch. As we pushed the multimeter probes into these earlier, i found they didn't contact propperly afterwards and and idled too low because of this.
Now that we have found whether the ISCV functions or not we can decide what action to take.
(Even tho my ISCV showed some signs of functionality, its good to clean it out so i proceeded to remove it)
If your going to fix it yourself (and I'm assuming you are as you wont be reading this otherwise) then you have 3 options to consider regarding the ISCV.
1) Buy a brand new one from ford or a ford parts dealer (ford call this an Air Bypass Valve) and an average price you'd expect to pay is about �65.00
2) Go to scrap yard before hand and remove one from a scrapper (I was quoted �10 for one so use that as a guide) Then clean the scrapper one, swap them over and then clean your original one and maybe EBAY it.
3) Just remove yours and clean it and put it back on.
I will talk about how to clean the ISCV later in this tutorial.
You will need an ISCV Gasket approx �1.50 depending on the condition of the gasket present (mine was in good condition so didn't need replacing but if in doubt, its only �1.50 so replace it!)
The ISCV is located on the engine side of the Inlet "Manifold" Directly next to the starter motor (behind the engine)
Its only just viewable from the top with the inlet piping off.
(In the above photo i have removed the injector connector plugs for clarity, you DO NOT need to remove these as there is virtually no way it can be removed from above, i'm merely showing you where it is)
Right, as it needs to be removed from under the car, your going to need a pit or a set of ramps or at the very least a jack - then some blocks (to secure the car)
Once the car is lifted and secured, you are going to need a flat screwdriver (just in case it needs help to come off) and a small rachet with an 8mm socket.
Firstly, remove that connector plug we tested earlier.
Below is a picture of an ISCV.
It may not be as easily identified on your engine due to shape (theres variations on early/late zetecs) and whether it plastered in oil etc...
You need to position yourself directly under the exhaust - by the cat (or where the cat should be) I found the best position was with my legs towards the rear of the car and that gave me a good view of the rear of the engine.
You should have this sort of view...
The black "pipe" is the bottom of the inlet "manifold" and just above that, the shinny silvery object is the ISCV.
If you move your head over towards the drivers side then look up at it, you will see it better...
You can clearly see the ISCV in this photo, just behind the Starter motor to the far right.
You should be able to see one bolt, the other is directly on the other side of the ISCV - Upwards and you should be able to feel where it is.
Undo these with the 8mm socket and then carefully remove the ISCV, if it doesn't want to come off when the bolts are removed, use the flat screwdriver to help lever it off.... CAREFULLY!
Make sure the gasket has been removed too - if it breaks then you must replace it.
Once off, you will be confronted with this...
Now its time to clean it.
Ideally you should use Carb/Choke cleaner (even the '151' Brand of carb/choke cleaner available from pound shops will do) however i didn't have any and i used WD40.
Simply spray in through the holes and blast out the crappy oily sludge and debris from the ISCV's internals.
Then tilt it up so that you can spray inside the holes and fill the ISCV up with cleaner, then leave this for a while, (beware - after a while this will evapourate - dont let it, empty the cleaner before this happens)
Then rinse with more carb/choke cleaner.
Keep at it untill all the muck around the spring, centre pin and plastic valve has been removed - i found that mild aggitation of the spring with a small flat screwdriver helped the muck come out.
Rinse again.
Then soak the the insides with WD40 (or any maintainence spray) and leave soak again, then rinse. In all i spent about half an hour cleaning, to remove all the muck and debris.
Let the ISCV drip dry and then it should be sinny inside and out...
Refitting is a little more difficult, but its best to put both bolts into thier holes on the ISCV, Then place the gasket on the ISCV.
Then manouvre yourself back under the car, and guide the bolts back into thier holes, do them up loosely with your fingers, i found the top one easier to do first, then the bottom > Finger tight... then tighted with an 8mm Socket and rachet.
If you have a mini torque wrench, the bolt torque setting is 6Nm or 4lbs/ft
Once this is tight, reconnect the ISCV connector clip, re-fasten the Throttle body inlet pipe (jubilee clip) Slide the inlet pipe back into the air cleaner - fasten up the clips and plug in the MAF sensor plug.
Make sure your tools are all clear, lower the car to the ground (if raised) and try her out...
I found idle to be erratic for a minute or two, then after a couple of minutes a very quick blat on the throttle... she then settled at a happy 800/900 rpm.
After a long drive, the HIGH idle i previously experienced at traffic lights etc has gone.
This solved my problem, However - if you are still having problems, it might be worth turning your attention to the Lambda Sensor.
Well thats it, i managed it so if you know what an 8mm socket it, a rachet and are not affraid of oil or tight spaces (as there little room for your hands behind the engine) i'm 100% certain that you can do this.
If you ever need help, ask the forum regulars or send me a PM - i'm more than happy to help.

Bit dangerous quoting part numbers etc on a general zetec topic like this. There are so many variations of zetec and ISCV.
For example i have a series 1 zetec which uses a tubular ISCV on the TB manifold and costs 35 quid from ford and the above guide doesn't apply.
Just thought i'd be picky on my return....sorry dave.

The ISCV dont normally fail, they just clog up. Before buying a new one try cleaning your old one with carb cleaner, let it soak over night if need be. Loads of people change them for no real reason.
To check you ISCV is working bridge the - (neg) wire to a good earth with the engine running, you should hear the engine note change. Remove the earth it should adjust back, if you get no change the ISCV is sticking (or in extremes you have no live feed to it, should be arounbd 5v)!!

Does anyone know what the gasket should look like?
I intend to carry out this job on my Zetec Escort...
I have bought a replacement gasket for the ISCV, but it looks like 2 round rubber rings (1" Diameter each) joined by a piece of black rubber in the middle.
Is this correct?
i dont want to strip it down and then be car-less! As my local Ford dealer is miles away!

To the Editor.—
The letters of Taylor et al1 and Dr Cobb2 regarding our study of the age threshold for isoniazid chemoprophylaxis for low-risk tuberculin reactors3 raise important issues of tuberculosis prevention policy. Their comments, however, do not affect our conclusion that isoniazid's benefits outweigh its risks for all affected persons between ages 10 and 80 years, by the measures of life expectancy and expected mortality.One comment made was that isoniazid's benefit in life expectancy gain— one to 16 days, depending on one's age at the time of the decision—seems "trivial." Such magnitude in benefits, however, must be appreciated in context. The prevention of any one disease, even a common one, may add little to average life expectancy. Tuberculosis has a relatively small effect on a tuberculin reactor's life expectancy because activation is uncommon (about a 5% chance over a lifetime) and the case fatality rate

Vermont GOP expected to offer amendment to budgetBy Peter Hirschfeld
Staff Writer | March 28,2013MONTPELIER – Having failed in their bid to derail a tax bill that would raise more than $20 million in new revenue next year, House Republicans have now turned their focus toward changing the ways in which Democrats want to spend the money.
The GOP super-minority will offer an amendment to the budget Friday that would ax spending on new programs and redirect the money to buy down public-pension obligations and bolster rainy-day reserves.
The amendment will undoubtedly fail, and by a wide margin. But House Minority Leader Don Turner said his caucus is at least making its points.
"Vermont needs to get its fiscal house in order,"Turner said Thursday. "It's already very expensive to live in Vermont. And these (budget and tax) bills make it much, much worse."
Turner said that at the outset of the session, he presented House Speaker Shap Smith with the conditions that would be needed to earn his caucus' support for the fiscal year 2014 spending plan. They included: an overall spending increase of not more than 3 percent; limiting new employees to the 17 positions needed to staff the new state hospital; and the creation of a $20 million reserve to absorb looming cuts in federal aid.
"We knew full well we wouldn't achieve everything on this, but we hoped to see some movement on some," Turner said. "This budget being brought to the floor does not do that."

Microsoft urges security upgrade
Published: Friday, August 6, 2004 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, August 5, 2004 at 11:00 p.m.
SEATTLE | To help distribute its most comprehensive security update ever for the Windows operating system, Microsoft Corp. is asking hundreds of millions of users to turn on a function called "automatic updates."
It's located in the "system" control panel, found by going to the "start" menu.
Users were likely given the option of turning on automatic updates when they first installed Windows XP, but many may have refused because they were concerned about giving Microsoft permission to automatically interact with their computers.
The company is now asking those who decided against it to reconsider, arguing that it is the quickest and least disruptive way to get big files like the security update onto your computer.
Consumers also will be able to download the update, dubbed Service Pack 2, from Microsoft's Web site all in one chunk. And eventually, Microsoft will send a free CD copy of the upgrade to people who request it.
With automatic updates, Microsoft will slowly download Service Pack 2 -- and future security fixes -- using a technique that reduces disruption to normal work, e-mail or Web surfing.
Microsoft estimates that about 90 million Windows users have signed up for automatic updates, and it hopes to add millions more as Service Pack 2 is deployed this month.
John Pescatore, vice president of Internet security with Gartner Inc., said his company recommends the automatic update function for consumers.
But he warns that it also downloads other "critical" software improvements that aren't security related.
Although there's no evidence Microsoft is misusing the feature now, he said it could allow/sMicrosoft to eventually counter a competitor's new product with an added feature of its own, delivered in real time onto Windows.
Microsoft senior product manager Matt Pilla said that in addition to security, the automatic updates are mainly to do with reliabilty and performance, and the system does not send out new versions of products.

Let's see what the next few weeks holds. Moyes, get your pen out and sign or the uncertainty and low morale will just drag on. Hopefully the players will realise that it is not up to the manager to motivate them, they should be able to motivate themselves, so forget all the #$%$ going on at the club, get out on that pitch, fight for the shirt, the club and the fans, and start delivering like we know they can, startin in Belgium and carrying on after that.And let's not despair....we could be Newcastle or Spurs!!!!It seems Spurs is a classic case of a "big name" manager and millions of quid spent on players does not always bring you the success you expect.

B'Day Boy Randeep Hooda's Hottest Kissing Scenes On-screen
Randeep Hooda is celebrating his 38th birthday today and this hot hunk has garnered the attention of both the critics and the audiences with he versatile acting chops on-screen but what antics of him has garnered a bit more attention are his kissing scenes.
The actor has broken and damaged the barrier if I could say so when it comes to on-screen kissing. If the actor has kissed ex adult star Sunny Leone in Jism 2 then he has kissed Saqib Saleem in Bombay Talkies as well. Emraan Hashmi who was known as the serial kisser of Bollywood has never kissed a guy on-screen but Randeep has kissed many actresses and actors on-screen, making him a bigger serial kisser than Emraan Hashmi could be.
Randeep began acting in school productions at a very young age. After completing his studies in Melbourne in Australia, he returned to India and began modelling and acting in theatre. He finally made his Bollywood debut with Mira Nair's Monsoon Wedding in 2001. After a good four long years of hiatus he signed his second project: Ram Gopal Varma's D (2005), which earned him critical acclaim.
After this, Hooda worked in a series of unsuccessful projects until he featured in Milan Luthria's Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai (2010), which proved to be a turning point in his career. He was subsequently noted for his performances in Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster, Jannat 2, Murder 3, Jism 2 and the most recent in Sajid Nadiadwala's Kick.
His upcoming projects are Rang Rasiya, Ungli, Shooter, Fanne Khan, Main Aur Charles and Pooja Bhatt's Bad. The actor is sure to have his share of hot kissing scenes in these movies as well, in the mean time, check out birthday boy Randeep Hooda's hottest kissing scenes on-screen.

What's even weirder is that this problem persists, even on other pages, until you restart firefox manually.
Anyone heard of this before? Any possible solutions?

One size does not fit all
The letter from Kyle Roberts titled Resolve to stop eating meat has me confused and a bit miffed. First, he tells us to not eat meat and go vegan, then he tells us to drop animals from the menu for new years resolution.
So that means we cant drink milk, eat eggs, eat any fish, etc.? You are telling us to just eat your diet and go vegan, but where will you be hiding when people actually do this and start getting sick?
Your resolution needs to be keeping your personal diet and other biases and cute little platitudes to yourself. Please dont share any more of this nonsense with us, as we have heard enough.

New KDE Forum
The KDE project wants more contact with its users: After the recent work on a User-Wiki, KDE has now opened a user forum, complete with forum software published under GPLv3 license.
Sebastian Kuegler, member of the KDE e.V. Board of Directors, sees the forum as a further service. Kuegler believes that because KDE is becoming so popular, the project should give users who are unfamiliar with the e-mail procedure an opportunity to take part in discussions.
Makers of forum software MyBB evaluated the KDE project and decided to offer their software to the Open Source cause. Formerly under its own propriatery license, "this was very well-received by the community around MyBB", says Project Manager Chris Boulton. The new KDE forum can be found at forum.kde.org.

I didn't have time, so was going to call back. Called back and left me a message, but we did not connect, and I was not interested anyway, just wanted to be done with it. They have charged me $79 a month now for 4 months, and as of my phone call today assure me that I will not be charged again this month, I have stopped payment so they cannot get into my account.

The Doctor's World;New AIDS Therapies Arise, But Who Can Afford the Bill?
By By LAWRENCE K. ALTMAN, M.D.
Published: February 6, 1996
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5— Shortly after AIDS was first recognized in 1981, activists demanded: give us new therapies. Now the latest worry of activists and many others concerned about the costs of health care is: who can afford them?
A five-day meeting on H.I.V. and related viruses here last week made it clear that the treatment of AIDS is entering a new phase, much more complex, perhaps more effective and certainly more costly.
The latest development is a class of drugs known as protease inhibitors. Short-term studies show the combination of these new drugs with standard older ones is the most potent therapy against H.I.V., the virus that causes AIDS. As Dr. David Cooper, a leading AIDS researcher from Sydney, Australia, put it, the new phase involves "the ascendancy of combination therapy" and "the demise" of single-drug therapy for H.I.V.
But the combination anti-H.I.V. therapy costs $12,000 to $18,000 a year. The many other medications that patients with advanced AIDS may need for related conditions could raise the bill to $70,000.
Many doctors expect heavy promotional pressure to treat more H.I.V. patients earlier in the course of the infection than is now the case. Since several hundred thousand Americans are infected, though many do not know it, the increased costs could be substantial.
Private health insurance plans will cover the drug costs for some AIDS patients. Medicaid covers the drugs for many others, although the number of individual drugs covered each month may be restricted. For others, the drug costs may be covered by the drug assistance program under the Ryan White act, the Federal program for treatment of AIDS patients. And many others may have to pay out of pocket if they can.
None of the new treatments are a cure for AIDS, although some of the initial results seem to show striking benefits. One study reported last week found that the combination of an experimental protease inhibitor and two older drugs, AZT and 3TC, suppressed the amount of H.I.V. in the body to levels that cannot be detected by the latest laboratory techniques. The effect is more powerful than many would have dreamed possible when the studies began only a few months ago.
The AIDS virus still remains in the body, but the hope is that if H.I.V. does not become resistant to the drugs and they can be given safely for many years, AIDS can be treated successfully as a chronic disease.
Increased cost is only one of the challenges that new treatments and new hope pose for researchers, doctors and patients. But there are others as well -- the ever present difficulty of squandering the effectiveness of new treatments by using them in a way that fosters resistant strains of the AIDS virus, and a related need to conduct controlled studies to know which combinations of drugs work best.
How much costs will increase is not clear. The Food and Drug Administration has so far approved only one protease inhibitor, Roche's saquinavir, for marketing. It costs about $7,000 a year. Merck and Abbott have asked the drug agency for permission to market their experimental protease inhibitors, indinavir and ritonavir, which they promoted heavily at the meeting. But they declined to say how much the drugs would cost. And the agency will have much more information to evaluate than was presented here before approving either drug.
As two of the meeting's main scientific organizers, Dr. Robert T. Schooley of the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver, and Dr. Douglas D. Richman of the University of California at San Diego, both cautioned at a news conference, "The devil is in the details."
Nonetheless, costs will undoubtedly rise, and budgets may not. Dr. Harold W. Jaffe, an official of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention who also treats AIDS patients at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, said, "just in the last few months in our clinic at Grady, we have gone from one to two drugs as the standard initial treatment" and may go to three. "But we have a fixed pharmacy budget, so what are we going to not supply in order to accommodate these new drugs?" he asked.
Other important studies show that a new test that measures the amount of H.I.V. in the body can provide a more accurate way to predict the course of H.I.V. infection. Researchers suggested that the test would allow them to establish categories of progression of H.I.V. infection, as is done with some cancers, in hope of making drug therapy more effective.
But that important development has raised further concern about the costs of the new AIDS care. The Food and Drug Administration has not approved the test for marketing, although it is used extensively in research. The test is expected to cost about $200, would need to be repeated about four times a year and, if approved, would be added to many others that are now used.
"Because of the patient advocacy for AIDS, there will be a lot of pressure to make the standard of care a very expensive one," Dr. Jaffe said in an interview. "It won't just be individuals asking questions. It will be organized community groups pushing for this higher standard."
