The following tip is created based on a Lenovo Forums/Microsoft solution. For more information, please visit:
Which option to use: "Maximum runtime (hours) or "Maximum Lifespan"?
|Affected Configurations
The above symptom is associated with, but not limited to, the following systems:
Affected systems:
Operating Systems
All Operating Systems
A ThinkPad battery can be set up for maximum runtime (hours), or for maximum lifespan before it must be replaced (years). The choice is yours, but with today's battery technologies, you can't have both at the same time.
Whichever optimization you choose, the limitations of today's batteries technologies also mean that they are consumables, i.e. your ThinkPad will last longer than its battery!
Optimizing for runtime (hours)
The normal default Lenovo Power Manager Battery Maintenance setting keeps your battery fully charged. It starts charging when the battery drops below 96%, and stops at 100%. Runtime on battery then depends on the Power Plan settings you choose.
There are several predefined Power Plans which you can tweak to your needs, or you can create your own. For the best runtimes, start with the Maximum Battery Life Power Plan.
Optimizing for lifespan (years)
The main enemies of battery longevity are age, the number of charge cycles, amount of time at full charge, and high temperature.
For maximum lifespan if you rarely use the battery, set Custom charge thresholds to start charging at 40% capacity and stop at 50%, and keep the ThinkPad cool. The thresholds can be adjusted in the Battery Maintenance settings of the Lenovo Power Manager.
If you do use your battery somewhat frequently, set the start threshold at say 85% and stop at 90%. This will still give a good lifespan benefit over keeping it charged to 100%.
The simplest way to optimize for battery lifespan is to select Automatic in the Power Manager Battery Maintenance settings, and let it manage your battery charge thresholds for you.

Cosequin is a patented, scientifically researched nutritional supplement dispensed by thousands of veterinarians to help dogs maintain healthy joints. As dogs age, it is common for their joints to become less flexible which impacts their mobility and quality of life. You may have noticed that your dog has difficulty walking up stairs or jumping on the bed. While he used to be eager to play, now he is content to rest. Even at younger ages some dogs are subject to joint health concerns which affect flexibility and mobility.
It plays an important role in maintaining optimal joint function. Healthy articular (joint) cartilage is crucial to joint utility. It helps to support cartilage production and protect existing cartilage from breakdown. it is the only glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate supplement that has been shown safe, effective and bioavailable in peer-reviewed, published, controlled, U.S. veterinary studies.
Maintenance Administration (After initial 6 week period)Dogs 25 to 49 lb. can have their total daily dosage lowered in increments of a 1/2 capsule per month until maintenance level is reached. Dogs over 49 lb. can have their total daily dosage lowered in increments of 1 capsule per month until maintenance level is reached.
Glucosamine HCl, Sodium Chondroitin Sulfate, natural flavors, manganese ascorbate, gelatin, water, magnesium stearate, titanium dioxide, FD&C Red #3, FD&C Blue #1, and sodium lauryl sulfate.
The amount can be increased at any time depending on the pet's needs. If the pet does not respond as well when the level is decreased, then return to previous level. Remain on this amount for a month, then try again to gradually reduce. Sometimes an every other day amount or lowering the amount by 1/2 capsule rather than one capsule can be successful. Some pets will maintain at a lower amount during the summer months than the winter months. Also activity level can vary the requirements. In times of high physical demand, pets may require more Cosequin.
Cosequin DS double strength can be used on patients under 25 lb., however, 1/2 capsule increments must be used. For convenience, Cosequin regular strength should be used. Regular strength can also be used for maintenance of dogs weighing 25-49 lb. that maintain below one capsule daily of double strength.
The capsules can be pulled apart and the contents sprinkled on the pet's food. Wet or moist food works best. As an alternative, pets can be pilled or the capsules administered by wrapping in a small piece of food. Cosequin is palatable to dogs, cats and birds.

Ok.....DS is 6 months. I really don't want to start solids, but he REALLY wants our food. Is there something that I can give him while we are eating? I let him suck on a piece of watermelon. WOW did he LOVE that. I am feeling like he is ready, but he is still thriving on just bm. I wanted to wait until he was 1 year old, but I know he's not going to wait that long.
Also I still feed him every 2-3 hours, but what can you give them in between on these HOT TEXAS days? He is always grabbing for our water. I know if I get thirsty he probably does too.

March 31, 2005: Like dust bunnies that lurk in corners and under beds, surprisingly complex loops and blobs of cosmic dust lie hidden in the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316. This image made from data obtained with the NASA Hubble Space Telescope reveals the dust lanes and star clusters of this giant galaxy that give evidence that it was formed from a past merger of two gas-rich galaxies.
Astronomers are using the ACS camera onboard Hubble to study star clusters in several nearby giant elliptical galaxies. Globular clusters are compact stellar systems with hundreds of thousands to millions of stars formed at the same time. By counting the number of globular clusters detected as a function of their brightness they could, for the first time, see evidence of the gradual disruption of star clusters created during a past merger of gas-rich galaxies. The unprecedented sensitivity of the Hubble ACS data permitted the team to detect faint globular clusters previously impossible to reach.
They found that the relative number of low-mass clusters is significantly lower in the inner regions than in the outer regions, by an amount consistent with theoretical predictions. The team's results have improved our understanding of how elliptical galaxies and their star clusters may have formed during galaxy mergers and then evolve to resemble 'normal' elliptical galaxies after several billions of years.
NGC 1316 is on the outskirts of a nearby cluster of galaxies in the southern constellation of Fornax, at a distance of about 75 million light-years. It is one of the brightest ellipticals in the Fornax galaxy cluster.
These Hubble Advanced Camera for Surveys images were taken in March 2003. The color composite is a combination of data taken in blue, yellow-green, and infrared filters.
NGC 1316, also known as Fornax A, is one of the strongest and largest radio sources in the sky, with radio lobes extending over several degrees of sky (well off the Hubble image). Wide-field imagery from Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory in Chile shows a bewildering variety of ripples, loops and plumes immersed in the galaxy's outer envelope.

Search under way for girl reported lost - Updated 11:45 p.m.Staff Report | May 09,2013Vyto Starinskas / Staff Photo
A helicopter lights up the former WHWB radio tower on the West Proctor Road in Rutland Town at 11 p.m. Thursday.The Vermont State Police has issued a press release about the search for the possible missing girl in the Center Rutland-West Rutland area.
According to the release, State Police received a report at about 5:15 p.m. Thursday of a "possible endangered female juvenile" on the West Proctor Road in West Rutland.
According to the caller, "a female juvenile approached their car, indicated that she had been hurt, and exhibited physical injuries. The reporting party was unable to keep the child at the vehicle and the female juvenile was last seen running into the woods."
Police said the caller said the girl said her name was "Angel" or "Angela." She appeared to be approximately 6 years old and was described as a white female, with dark brown, straight, shoulder length hair, and was missing her left front tooth. She was last seen wearing a red skirt, white t-shirt, white flip flops, and a mood ring.
A hasty search including a police dog was conducted without finding anyone.
Since then the search has been expanded to include members with the Rutland County Sheriff's Department, Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department, Vermont National Guard, Rutland Town Fire Department, and New England K9.
A National Guard helicopter is overhead searching in the area of the Otter Creek between Route 3 and West Proctor Road near Route 4.
A witnesses said police have combed the area along Route 4 from Route 3 to the Sunoco station, including the falls in Center Rutland. Most of the more recent activity was in the fields and woods north of Route 4, and attention was being paid to the area around Wilson Castle as of 11 p.m.
Many area residents have taken to Facebook and other social media channels to swap information, but that has been extremely limited.
A State Police detective at the State Police Barracks in Rutland said all available personnel were out searching for the girl and that no comment would be made on the search until at a later date. An officer with the State Police on the scene said a news release would be issued but no further details were available.
A command post has been established at the Rutland Town Fire Department on Route 4.
Vermont State Police say they have no reports of a missing 6- or 7-year-old girl, and no AMBER Alert has been issued because it does not meet the criteria for an alert, but the case is actively being investigated.
Anyone with any information should call the Rutland Barracks at 802-773-9101 or submit an anonymous tip to www.vtips.info. If you come into contact with a child matching this description, please call 911 immediately.
We'll update this story tonight and in the morning as details warrant.MORE IN NewsNarration and audio production by RH Alcott Full StoryNarration and audio production by RH Alcott Full Story

- Radio frequency interference identification and mitigation using simultaneous dual-station observations

- Abstract
- Radio frequency interference (RFI) mitigation is a critically important issue in radio astronomy using existing instruments as well as in the development of next generation radio telescopes, such as the Square Kilometer Array (SKA). Most designs for the SKA involve multiple stations with spacings of up to a few thousands of kilometers and thus can exploit the drastically different RFI environments at different stations. As demonstrator observations and analysis for SKA-like instruments, and to develop RFI mitigation schemes that will be useful in the near term, we recently conducted simultaneous observations with Arecibo Observatory and the Green Bank Telescope. The observations were aimed at diagnosing RFI and using the mostly uncorrelated RFI between the two sites to excise RFI from several generic kinds of measurements such as giant pulses from Crab-like pulsars and weak H I emission from galaxies in bands heavily contaminated by RFI. This paper presents observations, analysis, and RFI identification and excision procedures that are effective for both time series and spectroscopy applications using multistation data.

The appartment has a good location. Hancock street is very quiet and just a 10 minute walk from the nearest Subway. From there you are with the A expres line in about 20' in mid Manhattan. In the house itself we saw deferred maintenance. The main double bed was in such a condition that we put the matrass straight on the floor. Based on the positive reviews the appartment therefore was quite a surprise. The second twin bed in the smaller room was also in a bad shape. Instead of that we used the sofabed, which we moved to the kitchen! At first sight it all looked quite clean, but at a second look this was not the case, especially in the kitchen area (closets, oven, microwave). After all, we had a good week, due to our own adaptations and care.
Really nice place, close to the subway and a main street, everything clean and tydy. Safe Neighbourhood.
me and my husband stayed in coretta's appartment for 10 days, it was clean, well organized and the most important it was really easy to reach manhattan!!! in 30 min or less we were at times square!!! i definitely recommend this appartment!!
thank you so much coretta!!
Great Appartment and Correta was a great host. Enjoyed it and will definitly come back :)
We spent a very good time in Brooklyn. The apt. is very clean and has a comfortable size. We found some welcome Drinks in the fridge and tea etc. is also available.
The neighbourhood is very friendly, safe with many restaurants, small shops and supermarkets.
The subway station (line A+C) is just a 5 minutes walk away and takes you to Manhatten in about 20 minutes. Bus station is directly in front of the door, too.
Thank you Coretta, we really enjoyed our stay.
It was so good by coretta.
Nice Appartement in a safe Street.
We come back
Friendly host, clean and quiet apartaments, everything was nice
Coretta is a wonderful hos . The apt is amazing. Big and confortable. Very near to the metro station (20 minutes to manhatran) and a big supermarket. I really love my permanence there. If you wanna go to NYC i really reccomend Coretta s apt
Our stay at Correttas place was wonderful. We really appreciated the late check out
Great place on a great location. From Nostrand AV subway in Manhattan within 20 minutes. Friendly neighborhood. The apartment was clean and well organized. Some neighbor noises but never till late. We liked it a lot.

Whoa there. You can't go blaming the chairman! And of course reporters and journalists trawl the forums, twitter etc. They would not be doing their jobs if they did not. Indeed, some organs pay people to do just hat.
I'm not blaming him. I just find the whole thread ironic and was trying to be so. Your last sentence demonstrates the irony quite well in that some people of significant influence pay the piper to do exactly what's reported by "lazy journalists".

Fujitsu and Oracle this week announced that they are strengthening a multi-decade partnership with the extension of their SPARC development relationship, an expansive, new product distribution agreement and a commitment to further joint engineering, marketing and sales promotion efforts.
"Oracle's partnership with Fujitsu has never been stronger. We are entering a new phase with Fujitsu, aligning our engineering and worldwide distribution efforts with a focus on high-performance, highly-reliable systems," said Larry Ellison, chief executive officer of Oracle.
The two companies previously announced a new unified enclosure design featuring logos of both companies for the Oracle and Fujitsu SPARC Enterprise M-series servers. Oracle and Fujitsu have also made available a roadmap of M-series servers that provides 15 times better performance in the next three years. These new developments will further ensure these milestones are met.
Moving forward, sales teams from both Oracle and Fujitsu are now aligned to jointly sell SPARC Enterprise servers. This will help to ensure ongoing continuity while continuing to improve customer satisfaction.
In addition, Oracle and Fujitsu will advance joint engineering efforts to help ensure Oracle and Fujitsu products are optimized and tested to best run Oracle software in mission critical environments.
Furthermorem, Fujitsu signed a new Oracle PartnerNetwork distribution agreement giving Fujitsu the ability to resell and distribute Oracle products across the full Oracle portfolio. This permits Fujitsu to act as a systems integrator and solution provider for the overall Oracle stack.
"I am very pleased that our partnership with Oracle continues to grow. We believe our active partnership with Oracle, in addressing greater sales and services on a global scale, will produce a richer and more vibrant solution environment for our joint customers," said Masami Yamamoto, the president of Fujitsu.

- Arnold, Jacob A.; Romanowsky, Aaron J.; Brodie, Jean P.; Chomiuk, Laura; Spitler, Lee R.; Strader, Jay; Benson, Andrew J.; Forbes, Duncan A.
- Abstract
- We present a global analysis of kinematics and metallicity in the nearest S0 galaxy, NGC 3115, along with implications for its assembly history. The data include high-quality wide-field imaging from Suprime-Cam on the Subaru telescope, and multi-slit spectra of the field stars and globular clusters (GCs) obtained using Keck-DEIMOS/LRIS and Magellan-IMACS. Within two effective radii, the bulge (as traced by the stars and metal-rich GCs) is flattened and rotates rapidly (v/σ 1.5). At larger radii, the rotation declines dramatically to v σ ~ 0.7, but remains well aligned with the inner regions. The radial decrease in characteristic metallicity of both the metal-rich and metal-poor GC subpopulations produces strong gradients with power-law slopes of –0.17 ± 0.04 and –0.38 ± 0.06 dex dex–1, respectively. We argue that this pattern is not naturally explained by a binary major merger, but instead by a two-phase assembly process where the inner regions have formed in an early violent, dissipative phase, followed by the protracted growth of the outer parts via minor mergers with typical mass ratios of ~15-20:1.

LW Greenwood may soon be sold
EAST RANDOLPH L.W. Greenwood & Sons 85-year-old motto, Sold but not forgotten, may soon apply to the family-owned farm equipment business based on the companys looming sale to Champlain Valley Equipment Inc.
This one should come together quickly, according to Leon Butch Greenwood Jr., who on Tuesday confirmed what some patrons of the Route 14 business have been told in recent days.
Were selling out to them (Champlain Valley Equipment) hopefully by Labor Day weekend, Greenwood said of the second-generation company that was founded as a slaughterhouse and door-to-door meat business by his father, Leon Greenwood Sr., in 1929.
Over the years the company, which has been run by Greenwoods brother, Ron, since 1971, morphed into a sales, service and parts business for a wide range of farm equipment and has since expanded to include everything from tractor-based construction equipment to snow machines.
Butch Greenwood, who has been working with his brother for nearly 35 years, said Tuesday that what to do with the family business has been a long-running topic of conversation between the two that finally appears to have been resolved.
We made the decision we were going to do something a couple years ago, but we just hadnt done anything and they (Champlain Valley Equipment) approached us, Butch Greenwood said, before deciding that hed said too much.
According to Butch Greenwood, a press release with all the facts and figures would be coming very, very soon and he didnt want to get out ahead of it.
I probably hadnt better say any more at this point, he said. Well wait until we officially say things.
Staff at the business, which has become a fixture on Route 14 in East Randolph, have been unofficially saying things telling customers, like Washington resident George Matheson, that the company will soon be sold to Champlain Valley Equipment and that its inventory of used equipment will be sold at auction.
Matheson was picking up parts for a 1977 Ford farm tractor that hes been tinkering with at the time and said he was sad to hear the news.
Theyre great fellows, he said, noting farmers from central Vermont and beyond had come to rely on the business and on Ron and Butch Greenwood.
You always got a good deal and they were always helpful, he said.
A representative for Champlain Valley Equipment referred questions about the acquisition of L.W. Greenwood & Sons to General Manager Brian Carpenter. Carpenter was out of the office on Tuesday and did not return a voicemail message.
Assuming the sale that Butch Greenwood described as 90 percent there on Tuesday goes through as expected, Champlain Valley Equipment would acquire a fifth Vermont location. The company, which currently has stores in Middlebury, Berlin, St. Albans and Derby, would pick up a store in East Randolph.
Founded in 1970, Champlain Valley Equipment caters to the same market as L.W. Greenwood & Sons and carries many of the same brands of equipment, including New Holland, Polaris, Kuhn and Woods.

A record number of women are Fortune 500 CEOs.
Women are launching businesses at 1.5 times the national average.
There are now 8.2 million American women running their own companies.
"The numbers are notable," said executive and business coach Debora McLaughlin, author of "The Renegade Leader: 9 Success Strategies Driven Leaders Use to Ignite People, Performance and Profits," (www.TheRenegadeLeader.com).
"From 1997 to 2011, the number of U.S. women-owned businesses increased by 50 percent," McLaughlin said. "And in 2011, the median compensation for female CEOs was 13 percent more than for male CEOs," according to NerdWallet Financial Markets.
According to Catalyst, a nonprofit organization, as of Jan. 1, there were 21 women running Fortune 500 companies, including IBM and PepsiCo, That's up from seven in 2002-2003. Among the Fortune 1000 companies, there are twice as many, including the CEOs of Neiman Marcus Group, Cracker Barrel and Dun & Bradstreet.
"Nonetheless, business women still face hurdles," McLaughlin notes. "Keep in mind, while 21 are Fortune 500 CEOs – a record high – that's only 4.25 percent of the total and the figures hold for Fortune 1000 companies, less than 5 percent have a female at the helm."
A recipient of the 2012-13 Women of the Year award presented by the National Association of Professional Women, McLaughlin watches the financial trends. While women are launching more businesses, they have an upward climb; studies show that women-owned companies are less likely to hit the $1 million mark and are more likely to fail.
"To claim, own and keep the keys to the corner office, women executives need to be seen, heard and to lead with greater influence and impact," McLaughlin says. She offers three key tips:
• Develop your personal brand: Let people get to know you, your core story of experiences and how they relate to your drive and vision. As Steve Jobs said, "connect the dots," then use transparent communication to share your story. People make better connections with people who tell a great story, and they're most interested in the story behind the person at the top. Transparency encourages greater communication, team building and leadership.
• Develop and use your personal network. Find a mentor and be a mentor; seek out other women at your level; and accept the strength, ideas and energy your connections have to offer. It is no longer necessary to blaze trails alone, and women have more power than they may realize. According to a Dow Jones report, startups with five or more female executives have a 61 percent success rate. It goes further and says that odds of success "increase with more female executives at the VP and Director levels."
• Stand for something; position yourself as a strong thought leader. It's not easy being at the top. Women tend to distrust powerful women, and men may view women as weak or too collaborative and sensitive. Take a firm stand on something you care about deeply and rally the organization around that objective. You will gain the respect of your peers, customers and stakeholders.
Business is changing. Women account for 73 percent to 85 percent of consumer decisions in the United States, which gives female CEOs yet another advantage – insight into their customers' values, McLaughlin said.

A passion for adventurePROVIDED PHOTO
Sarah Stewart Taylors latest novel, The Expeditioners and the Treasure of Drowned Mans Canyon, is about siblings in search of a treasure.
Vermont novelist Sarah Stewart Taylor has a penchant for adventure that has led her to pen books with a wide-ranging sense of place and appeal. She penned four Sweeney St. George mystery novels based on the adventures of the ginger-haired art historian with a penchant for cemetery art and vintage clothing, and a graphic novel about the pioneering aviatrix Amelia Earhart. Her latest, The Expeditioners and the Treasure of Drowned Mans Canyon, is about a trio of siblings in search of a treasure of gold amidst a dystopian world in which dirigibles ply the sky and computers have long since gone kaput.
Not too shabby for someone who published their first book 10 years ago.
As a child I loved reading adventure novels, Jules Verne, Robert Louis Stevenson. I loved the mystery and intrigue, says Taylor, of Hartford, explaining what drew her to writing in the first place. I also loved those classical mystery writers like Agatha Christie and Ngaio Marsh.
But Taylors Sweeney St. George also embodies the kind of richly eccentric characters created by such modern British writers as Ian Rankin, author of the popular Rebus novels, and Val McDermid, whose stories are achingly ordinary even as they shock the reader.
Currently a writing teacher at White River Junctions Center for Cartoon Studies, Taylor was asked by the center to provide the story line for a graphic novel.
Ive always liked reading graphic novels and it was very exciting to teach writing there, she recalls. We were doing a series of stories that were biographies of famous Americans and one of the ideas that I had was Amelia Earhart. It was an opportunity to learn how to write a script for a graphic novel. While she found Earhart a challenging subject, she became intrigued by the man who became her husband, and launched and managed her career.
George Palmer Putnam was known as the boy explorer, Taylor recounts. At a very young age he went on these amazing adventures.
Putnam visited everywhere from the Great American West to the Arctic Circle, mapping his travels and giving talks at the National Geographic Society when he returned.
My mind just started working. I had always been fascinated by maps themselves and exploration. I was a complete Anglophile as a kid. I was interested in colonialism and imperialism from a romantic viewpoint. When I went to college I took classes in African history and British imperialism and I began to become interested in the idea of what exploration means to the people who arent the explorers. The darker side of it.
That dark side is evident in The Expeditioners first tale. The setting is a post-apocalyptic world in which what once had been charted and explored is no longer known. And the world which once had all the mod cons we have today, has slipped into something altogether different, which many reviewers have called steampunk.
The term, which was coined in the early 1980s, was originally used to identify a genre of storytelling that was set in the Victorian age, and featured real and imagined inventions and devices that were powered by steam. Authors William Gibson and Bruce Sterlings book The Difference Engine, which features Charles Babbages early computing machine, is considered to be one of the progenitors of the style. Nowadays, steampunk includes stories, fashion, and anything with a clock gear glued on it. Terry Gilliams epic adventure film The Time Bandits has lots of steampunk elements, and British author Philip Pullmans adventure trilogy His Dark Materials, which includes the popular story The Golden Compass, are among the best known books for young adults that embrace the steampunk ethos.
But if the backgrounds are rich with steampunk details its the characters that propel The Expeditioners forward. Left with half of a treasure map by their deceased explorer father, the three kids go off to seek their fortune. And, as with Sweeney St. George and Amelia Earhart, Taylor has created a formidable and appealing female character, M.K., who has a love of gadgets and a passion for engineering. The quirky young woman embodies the spirit of tomboys everywhere and is a delightful break from Disney princesses and female characters in need of rescue.
Shes really good at building and fixing things, says Taylor. Since the book came out Ive heard from a lot of girls who really identify with her, who think of themselves as tomboys. When I first started writing her I thought she would be a secondary character, but I kept wanting to put her in more and more scenes.
Being a parent of three children, writing about three children who are on their own trying to fend for themselves in a hostile world, has given Taylor a lot of food for thought.
Like most women my age I had my children a little later. I have young kids and Im hitting middle age and my kids really need me. They are so fragile, she said. Ive talked to my friends about this, but as I was writing this book I realized that I was thinking about what it would be like to send my own children off into the world, how I could prepare them. It was completely unconscious as I was writing, but thats something that I think every parent wrestles with.
With The Expeditioners first story out on bookshelves everywhere, Taylor has started work on the second series for the indomitable trio. This time the story will take them to an underwater world. And if that conjures up images of Jules Vernes Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, Taylor doesnt mind.
I love that book, she says, and you can almost hear the gears of her mind turning.MORE IN Central VermontMIDDLEBURY According to WebMD, Dystonia is a movement disorder that causes a persons muscles ...

In the vast majority of cases of teens suffering from hair loss, the cause of hair loss is a condition called androgenic alopecia, or male-pattern baldness. It's usually a result of genetics and not a sign of a more serious underlying medical condition. Treatment that can slow or stop this type of hair loss is available. To confirm the diagnosis and decide on treatment options, he should make an appointment to see a dermatologist — preferably one who has expertise in hair loss.
Male-pattern hair loss is characterized by the hairline receding from the forehead, as well as thinning hair across the top of the head. If the hair loss continues over time, these two areas may merge. The result often is a ring of hair around the sides and the back of the head, with baldness over the top.
Male-pattern baldness happens because of genetics. A widely held myth is that the genes for this type of hair loss are passed down through the mother's side of the family. In fact, male-pattern baldness can be inherited through either side of a family, or it may come from both sides. Depending on a person's genetic make-up, hair loss of this type can begin any time after puberty. The rate of hair loss and how far it progresses is also based on genetics.
Several effective treatment options are available for male-pattern baldness. The over-the-counter medication minoxidil — brand name Rogaine — is applied directly to the scalp. It often works well, but only if it is used consistently over time. It is important to understand that the goal of this medication is to stop the process of hair loss. Only in very rare cases will it cause hair that has stopped growing to begin to grow again. That may not be what your son is hoping for now. But in ten to fifteen years, it will make a significant difference in the amount of hair he has at that time compared to what it would be if his current rate of hair loss continues.
Another treatment option available is the prescription drug finasteride (brand name Propecia), which can be used alone or in conjunction with minoxidil. This medication comes in pill form and needs to be taken every day. The purpose of finasteride also is to stop hair loss, not to regrow new hair.
Behaviors such as regularly wearing a baseball cap or frequent hair brushing do not have an effect on hair loss. Using shampoos, conditioners, serums or creams marketed to reverse hair loss won't make a difference, either. There is no evidence that any vitamins or dietary supplements can regrow hair.

Brooke Cartus' talents are endless. She's a hilarious stand-up comedian and a witty writer — her blog delves into everything from thoughtful discussions about LGBT issues and her family to more quirky musings, like a lesbian's take on "Magic Mike." She recently left her job as a personal trainer to start law school at Ohio State, and I'm fairly certain there's nothing she can't do … even if her humility keeps her from saying so.
When I started comedy, I would split the LGBT and non-LGBT humor. But the more I did it, the more I realized that the LGBT stuff was so fun. It's not just, "I'm gay, I'm gay, lesbian sex, scissoring." I could talk about an awful blind date with a girl, and every straight guy gets it. Relationship jokes are universal. Everything blends together; it's about people and relationships.
I started the blog because there were so many things I wanted to talk about on stage that didn't work. Something you may want to turn into a two-second punch line needs three paragraphs. If there's a topic I really want to delve into, I save it for the blog.
One thing I hate is when you go see a comic and then you go to their blog and it's all the same jokes. So if you like my stand-up, I want you to go the blog and read totally different material.
The worst part about blogs is you can see how many people read it. For comics that can be devastating.
There are a lot of injustices involving the transgender community, and there is not a lot of precedent for the issues they face. And there's a really great program focusing on [civil rights issues]. That's the kind of law I'm planning on focusing on.
My mom is really sweet, but unfortunately for her I tend to date women with boy names. So if they're named Jamie, Alex or Ryan and I tell my mom I went on a date with Ryan, she gets really excited. Then I tell her Ryan is a girl. She's like, "That's OK. I love you."
My next comedy show is going to be August 10, hosting the sketch show at MadLab. I also do a ton of stuff at Wall Street Nightclub like hosting events, dance parties and stuff. For the Wall Street gigs, I'm pretty much like a chubby Miller Lite girl. I walk around and act sexy and promote stuff. But I'm an approachable lesbian because I'm cute enough, but I'm not too cute.

Like breast cancer, this is one myth that survives because the disease is much more prevalent among women. But while women are four times more likely to develop osteoporosis than men, one out of eight men over the age of 50 is at risk.
According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, the disease in men is under-diagnosed, under-reported and inadequately researched. The foundation recommends a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D to combat the disease and cautions against smoking and excess use of alcohol.
Shave Close To Prevent Ingrown Hairs
In reality, the opposite is actually much more likely. If you cut your beard too close, the stubble could turn in on itself, drilling into the pore its growing from and inflaming the skin, according to Men's Fitness.
The website recommends men who experience problems with ingrown facial hair switch to an electric razor or grow a light, well-trimmed beard instead. You should be sure to shave in the direction your beard grows and never forcibly dig or yank out ingrown hairs by the roots, instead using a sterile needle or forceps to tease out and unfold the hair.
Cholesterol Is Always Bad
Although much attention has been paid to cholesterol levels, and rightfully so considering it is the leading cause of death among men, not all cholesterol is "bad."
Healthy levels of cholesterol are an important part of a healthy body, according to the American Heart Association. Your body needs cholesterol to produce cell membranes and certain hormones and it also plays an important role in other bodily functions as well.
There are two main types of blood cholesterol: LDL (the "bad" cholesterol) and HDL (the "good" cholesterol). Diets that are high in saturated fats and cholesterol raise the levels of LDL cholesterol in the blood. On the other hand, monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats found in nuts and fish can actually lower the LDL level.
Men Think About Sex Every 7 Seconds
Who knows where this one got started, but it sure sounds right. Right? Wrong.
As Dr. Aaron Carroll of Indiana University and the co-author of "Don't Swallow your Gum: Myths, Half-truths and Outright Lies About Your Body and Health" explains, that 7 seconds figure is about the same amount of time we go between breaths. It seems next to impossible that guys could think about sex as often as they breathe.
In one of the nation's most comprehensive surveys about sexual habits in the United states, completed by Edward Laumann and colleagues in 1994, 43 percent of men reported thinking about sex not even once a day, but rather somewhere between a couple times a week to a couple times a month.

Long story short, these guys were heavily armed (AK's and explosives...), took a huge amount of money from a couple of robberies with a hostage (NOT the Robin Hood type of thieves...), are directly linked with some type of urban-guerilla-terrorist like organisation, and some of them are accused individually for some older illegal actions... All 4 of them are under 25 years old and come from wealthy families-or at least above the average, also 1 of them openly applauded another popular older incident were a a taxi driver was murdered for trying to stop some bank robbers... They were caught by the Greek police and their muggshots were leaked in the internet... Now you know in general what has happened... My personal oppinion is that they were wealthy, spoiled kids that decided to pseydo-rebel and in the end sooner or later somone innocent would die because of them, so ONLY in this case I support the police-kids got what they deserved!

The other side of the story now. Those men didnt resist the arrest, so the beating by the cops came during interogation. One of them,5 years ago,saw his best friend die in his arms . A cop shot him. This kid was 15 years old and this led to massive protests throughout the country against police brutality.
They robbed a bank,took a hostage and were armed with automatic weapons,i dont feel sorry for the bastards that got arrested. The only think i have to say though is that democracy doesnt get revenge,tortures are not part of it. And i am pretty sure that if this ,20 year old man now, didnt see a human die in his arms by a cop's bullet,he would continue playing professionaly the piano as he did back then

Anon here, love the way you start the conversation, not flame wars not anything, so I salute you-also I continue in English or else fellow FJers won't understand a think! Back to the subject, yes indeed they didn't resist, they saw a police car parked on the side of the road and thought they were ambushed so they turned themselves in, note that they thought they were being expected and "**** their pants", they didn't just surrender on their own or anything... Moreover about the "shot friend" incident that MAYBE drove the one of them who knew him to become an "outlaw", my opinion is that as long as the cops got life sentence justice was served (We don't have death penalties in Greece...), and don't forget that many people are hurt by terrible events but they don't pick up AK's and start robbering... (Also about the dead friend-straight from a cop that was in the covered-up investigation, the kid attacked the police car with everything they found on the street, the killing of the kid is unjustified but the fact that those kids were/are rich and spoiled remains, this investigation was never seen by the public eye because everyone was in favour of the "innocent kid" presented by the media and goverment decided to go with the constructed events and punished the officers like escape goats...)... And at last I hate corrupted goverment, I hate NAZIS, but also I hate those-mostly left wing-idealists that believe that with a lot of talking everything will be solved-and in the end their solutions look a lot like right wing NAZIS, lastly I hate younger generations that only care for ****, money, clothes and Facebook-they are the cancer of each nation... That's about everything, all in all I despice police and police brutality, but in this case i support them-in fact i believe that as long as the suspects could open their eyes in the photos then police was very polite to them...

I've always believed that beliefs which are being expressed in the parliament form a circle,so it closes in the two ends. That means that far left wings are equal to far right. Anarchy and fascism are the exact same thing to me. At least this kind of anarchy,i havent read theoretical anarchist that just believe in self-organisation. So what i am trying to say is that arrest and jail was what they deserved. The thing is that the cops who beat them are probably the same that throw tear gas at old men in protests. Truth lies somewhere in the middle,we should check both sides. But you made good points there,i've always enjoy hearing something even slightly different from what i think.

PS. All 4 of them come from rich families, they had everything and became spoiled! Only 1 of them was linked to a traumatising event that-as I said before-is manipulated so the public eye thinks it was a cold blooded murder when in fact he and his dead friend attacked the police car-stil a murdered young man, but not an innocent one- you can either believe that or not... Also why else do you think he didn't appear in the court about his dead friend when he was the only witness of him dying? The killer cops got a life sentence they didn't deserve, yes they deserve jail for killing without being threatend by WEAPONS, but they were in self defence and the only witness never testified, yet they got life, strange ain't it? Moreover a human life had already been threatened as hostage by them and he was a dentist, not a rich corrupted bank owned... And the 1 of them saying out loud that he applauded the incident of the taxi driver who tried to stop the bank robbers... Man that's enough, in my opinion they got what they deserved, they weren't poor Robin Hood's stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, they were rich playing with guns taking a huge amount of money and when caught they started the "I'm an innocent traumatised young man!", I support the police IN THIS CASE ONLY, slapping their asses was the right thing to do!

A new online "Patient at Risk" database is helping emergency responders treat kids with special medical conditions.
Parents who have kids with special conditions like congenital heart defects or seizure disorders can add that information to the database. That way if the child needs emergence care, first responders have that information at the push of a button.
It not only helps first responders, but can be very helpful to parents during a stressful time.
"Often times they may know the history and may know, and usually do know their child's medical history extremely well, but they may not know all of the medications or they may be stressed at the time and this gives us the ability to go in and log in and find out that true information and it really takes some of the that pressure off the parent," said Tom Tornstrom of Tri-State Ambulance.
The program was recently rolled out for ambulance services and hospitals statewide. To create an account for your child or for more information, click here to access the Patient at Risk database.

School Purchasing Network marks second anniversary, provides more than $2 million in savings to local districts
Governor Blagojevich's call for efficiencies means cost savings for local school districts
SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) announced today that since its inception two years ago the Illinois School Purchasing Network (ISPN) has saved local districts $2.2 million. Saturday, June 16, marks the second anniversary of the network and to date more than 600 Illinois school districts have joined.
Responding to Governor Blagojevich's call to increase efficiencies in government ISBE launched the Illinois School Purchasing network in June 2005. Through the Illinois School Purchasing Network shared services initiative, ISBE partners with U.S. Communities, a national, not-for-profit governmental purchasing cooperative. The ISPN builds on the priority Governor Blagojevich and the State Board have put on creating opportunities to help Illinois school districts better serve their local communities.
"Governor Blagojevich has made school funding and maximizing efficiencies a priority during his administration and this initiative provides districts with another option to help them stretch every dollar they receive for maximum benefit," said State Superintendent Christopher Koch. "This allows school districts to have access to high-quality products at some of the best available government prices."
U.S. Communities assists local and state government agencies, school districts, higher education, and nonprofits in reducing the cost of purchased goods through pooling the purchasing power of public agencies nationwide. Forty-one of the largest school districts in the nation work with U.S. Communities.
School district contracts through the Illinois School Purchasing Network are free, voluntary and non-exclusive, with no spending minimums. U.S. Communities charges no user fees, and combines more than $1 billion in annual purchasing power through partnerships with 18,000 public agencies in 50 states.
Products available include school and office supplies and furniture; technology products; physical education and playground equipment; electrical, communications and data supplies; janitorial materials; carpeting and flooring; and office machines.
Illinois School Purchasing Network facts:
- U.S. Communities' vendors employ more than 16,000 Illinois residents.
- Of 875 districts in the state, 60 percent are registered.
- In 2006 alone, Illinois school districts save over $1.5 million.
- 438 districts enrolled in the network's first seven months – June – December 2005.
More information, including registration information for districts, about the Illinois School Purchasing Network can be found online at: http://www.isbe.net/savings.

If youve enjoyed indoor houseplants for any length of time, youve probably lost a plant or two.
Insufficient and excessive watering are among many reasons a plant might fail despite what seem like pampered conditions. In some cases, pampering may be precisely the problem.
Water serves as an important transport medium, allowing nutrients to travel from soil to plant cell. But too much water in the soil layer forces air from the root zone, reducing the plants oxygen supply.
Unfortunately, there is no simple rule dictating how often houseplants should be watered. Some plants, adapted to bog or swamp life, enjoy soaking wet conditions. Other plants--the succulent family, for example--have adapted to long periods of dryness between heavy watering. Soil medium and pot type influence how efficiently a container holds moisture.
Here are some guidelines to help you with correctly watering your plants:
Signs of dehydration and overwatering
When a plant needs ample watering
How to institute temporary self-watering
Emergency measures in watering disasters
Where to learn more about your plants need for water
Know the conditions youve given your plant to thrive in. Plants can be grown in almost any container, but some containers are better suited for plant life than others.
Clay pots are porous and tend to draw moisture from the soil, so plants in clay pots will more easily dehydrate. But if the container is enameled, or if it is metal, glass, plastic, or other non-porous material, the container will not leach moisture. Because these pots conserve water, you must be careful not to overwater.
If your planter does not have drainage holes in the bottom, be sure to provide for a drainage layer of stones or other non-degradable material in which excess water can collect away from the root zone and can be gradually reabsorbed. Plants grown in closed containers may not need watering as frequently.
Peat, a natural product of bogs, is generally an ingredient of potting mixtures. A word of caution about peat-based potting mixes: peat is added for its water-retention ability. However, once allowed to dry, peat is very difficult to rehydrate.
Learn to spot check a plants moisture level. If your plant is small, make a habit of picking up the plant before and after watering noting its weight change after watering. With practice, this method of checking soil moisture, together with other signs of plant vigor/weakness may help you assess a plants watering needs.
Similarly, a finger submerged an inch or so into the container soil should reveal a general sense of soil moisture. Or better yet, use a moisture meter. This is a foolproof, inexpensive device available at most nurseries. It will measure the soil as "wet", "moist" or "dry". For large container plants, a meter is almost essential.
Signs of dehydration and overwatering
Stem and leaf wilt signal dehydration, but you should avoid waiting for this sign. In addition, the soil mixture may pull away from the side of the pot. At this stage a plant is stressed, and repeated treatment of this sort is ill advised.
Watch for these signs of dehydration:
Frequent watering with small amounts of water can lead to waterlogging. This forces air from the soil and provides ideal conditions for the growth of fungi and bacteria. These organisms attack the plants roots causing rot and plant death.
Certain plants thrive in wet conditions--cypress or umbrella plants, for example. Many tropical plants with thin, delicate leaves--hibiscus, for example-- will not thrive in dry soil. Other plants will fail under wet conditions. A late and obvious sign of overwatering is growth of fungi or mold on the soil surface.
Early signs of overwatering signs include:
When a plant needs ample watering
Never water routinely every so many days. Water when a plant needs it. Learn about your plants need for water (See resources below.) Then adjust watering according to these general guidelines.
Plants need ample watering:
Cactus and succulents as well as plants with thick leathery leaves that do not transpire moisture heavily will suffer in wet conditions.
Similarly plants with thick fleshy roots or moisture storing structures on their roots are not to be overwatered. These plants should be given just enough water to barely moisten the pot mixture throughout and should be planted in a potting medium that drains readily. Water this type of plant in several stages from the top a little each time, never watering so much that water appears through the drainage hole at the bottom.
When watering from below, put no more than 1/4 inch of water in the plant underliner or saucer. Water again when approximately 2/3 of the pot mixture has dried out.
Other times to water less:
How to institute self-watering
Vacations and especially busy times pose challenges for houseplant growers. If you havent a fellow houseplant enthusiast to lean on in these times, here are a few tricks you might implement when needed.
The moisture wick
Obtain a wick of water-absorbing material such as candle wick or old shoe laces. Remove the plant carefully from its pot, taking care to disturb the roots minimally.
With a pencil, knitting needle or other thin blunt instrument, push one end of the wick into the center of the plants root ball. Guide the other end through the drainage hole in the pot and replace the plant in its pot. Support the plant above some water containing vessel, e.g. on two small 1x2 inch boards above a kitchen pot or sink. Place the wick into the water. Capillary movement of water into the pot will take place as the soil medium dries.
The capillary mat
A capillary mat is a self-watering mat made of thick felt, one portion of which is laid in the bottom of a sink, the other on a drainage board adjacent to the sink. Plants are placed atop that part of the mat on the drainage board and the sink is filled with water. Capillary mats work best for plants in plastic pots with many holes.
Clay pots should not be used with the capillary mat as the pots will themselves absorb the moisture, transferring little to the soil medium. The wick method may be a better choice for these.
A moisture tent
After watering the plant, construct a tent over it using a dry-cleaning bag or similar clean, clear plastic material. Provide ample air space. Move the plant to a more cool location.
The tent acts to conserve water by creating a more humid environment, and the cooling reduces transpiration. The combined actions serve to lengthen the watering interval, but caution is required. This method is of value for closed-container plants when used over short periods of time. Only brief infrequent applications of this technique are recommended.
Emergency measures in watering disasters
If the root ball has receded from the sides of its pot, there is little sense in trying to water from the top or pot bottom. Water will simply drain through the pot along the sides. It is likely that the plant will be showing considerable stress with leaf/stem wilt or death, but if you have arrived in time, there may still be a chance to save it.

All boys, weaned at 15 months, at home with Ashton
I'm not sure if this is going tobe a permanent schedule or if it's just while he's teething so I'm going to hold out for a couple of weeks because despite what everyone said, my supply did not know what to do when he wanted more milk on the weekends. He was sucking my empty boob for about an hour and a half mashing it together like dough trying to eek another drop.
So while i'm itching not to pump anymore, i feel like it's the only way to keep my supply up when i'm home.

My journey nursing MJ started HERE, but we got through it and she breastfed 19.5 months, self-weaned on 5/17/09
Mom to my current nursling, DS - "ME" born 10/2009 @ 10lbs 1oz, 22.25" He's 4 years old! And yup, he's still nursing.
Ask me about my successful VBAC! Click here for my birth story.
For pump weaning, I think it does help a lot if your baby is nursing nonstop all evening and night like mine.
I make less milk on the weekends than I used to when I pumped, for sure. But as Joe gets older, I am trying to encourage him to eat snacks and drink water during the day more, NIP less, etc. (Keep in mind that "less" is a relative term - he's a boobaholic.) So the lower production has not been a problem, and I always seem to have enough to put him down for a nap anyway.

Breakfast: a banana, 1/4 c oatmeal, a slice of ham
Snack: 1 yobaby yogurt
L: a beechnut growups spagetthios
Snack: dried apple, graham crackers
D: cheese cubes, mixed frozen veggies, goldfish, and bites of whatever we are having.
She nurses every hour or two except when I'm at work in the am. I'm never sure she eats enough.
Weekends I give Will a bread, a fruit, and milk for breakfast. He eats about 1/2 a banana or 1/4 of berries, maybe 1/4 cup of cereal, about 4 oz. of milk. If its a waffle or pancake, he eats about 1/2 of one. If its a muffin, he eats a whole one. On the rare occasions we have meat for breakfast, he eats 1 slice of bacon or 1 piece of sausage or 1/2 a slice of ham. Weekdays he eats whatever they have a daycare.
For lunch he eats whatever the girls are eating, but deconstructed and cut up small. I.E., the other day they had a meatball sandwich. I sent the meatballs in a container, cut up small, and the bun wrapped up separately, and the teacher tears the bun up for him. I sent a little container of macaroni salad. (And I mean little, maybe a scant 1/4 cup, because he's just learning to eat those foods.) Of course if they have pudding or cottage cheese or yogurt he can be fed that. If they have a soft fruit (oranges, grapes, banana, pineapple, peaches, pears, strawberries) I just cut it up very small. If they have a harder one (apples) or vegetable (carrots, green peppers) I shave them with a vegetable peeler and give him the shavings. I have not figured out how to give him celery, broccoli, or cucumbers raw. If they have one of those things I send him cooked green peas or limas.
For dinner he has whatever we are having, again deconstructed and cut up small, with the exception of pasta sauce. I just can't deal with the mess. I give him the pasta on his tray and feed him the sauce with a spoon. I give him milk with his meals and juice with his snacks.
For snack he has fruit, small crackers (goldfish, teddy grahams), yogurt, pudding, applesauce, something like that, and juice, about 4 oz.

- Abstract
- An electromagnetic wave scattering from a dispersive linear dielectric was analyzed using the quantum scattering formalism for electromagnetic fields. A dielectric medium modeled as a collection of harmonic oscillators with multiple bare resonances, leading to a number of discrete absorption band was also studied. The results showed that there were absorption bands and unitary input-output relations.

Plus, when you put into perspective the many other prophecies of the bible that came true, one disputing it would have to take the it was written afterwards stance. Because they have no other argument against it. There are many disputes on the subject of evolution.. even with the very ones who try to prove it happened.

|Cherry-O Cream Cheese Pie, an icebox pie made with cream cheese, condensed milk and cherry pie filling.
Cherry-O Cream Cheese PieThis has always been one of my favorite summer pies and I swear it is literally the easiest pie in the world. I almost hate to post recipes like this because they are so simple that even if you've never made it before, once you have, you really never need the"recipe" again.
Far as I can tell, the pie came about sometime in the 60s through an ad to promote two Borden's products - Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk and Borden cream cheese - but, truth is, it's held onto its popularity even still today.
|Borden's – Cherry-O Cream Cheese Pie Ad (1966)
When I was growing up, we had a Borden's milkman who made regular weekly stops at our house. Mama bought our milk, cream, butter and a few others things from him and Daddy paid the bill monthly so she didn't have to factor in the dairy products for three growing kids in her monthly grocery allowance. I can even remember a time when the milk was in bottles!
I swear our milkman must've been twelve back then though, because he is actually still driving a route here on the coast, but now it's for Schwann's foods. I don't buy from him because my freezer is usually filled with store sale stockups, but their food is actually pretty good, though a little expensive I guess. Like anything, you pay for the convenience. Even my Grandma Mac loved their apple pies and ice cream.
You can use all sorts of crusts for this pie from pastry, to graham cracker to cookie - they are all equally good. I happened to have one of those frozen in the pan crusts that The Cajun picked up for me once when he swore they didn't have any Pillsbury refrigerated crusts at the store. Pillsbury has always been my favorite commercial crust, and I like to keep those on hand for the times I
There's nothing at all wrong with the in the pan crusts, of course. They are a fine product, except that they aren't the easiest to store long term because they take up too much room in the freezer. Anyway, it had been getting shoved around my freezer for months, so that's what I used.
Over the years, folks have messed around somewhat with the ingredients for this simple pie, but I think it's perfect just the way it started. Here's how to make it.
Recipe: Cherry-O Cream Cheese Pie©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min |Inactive time: 3 hours | Yield: About 8 servings
- 1 (9 inch) graham cracker crust or baked pastry pie shell
- 1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- 1 (14 ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 1/3 cup of lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
Beat the cream cheese by hand just until smooth. Fold in the condensed milk, lemon juice and vanilla until blended. Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Top with the pie filling before serving.
Homemade Cherry Glaze: In a small saucepan, blend together 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch. Drain cherry juice from a (1-pound) can of pitted sour cherries into sugar mixture, bring to a boil, reduce and cook until mixture is thickened. Add food coloring if desired and stir in cherries. Allow to cool completely before adding to top of chilled pie. Makes about 1 cup.

UK Man Questioned for Photographing Daughter in Shopping Center

The photo that Chris White took of his daughter Hazel in the Braehead shopping center
(Source: BBC News)
UK citizen Chris White took his daughter, Hazel, to the Braehead shopping center near Glasgow on Friday and ran into trouble when photographing her within the mall
The U.S. has had its share of photo-related issues when police officers were
arresting citizens for videotaping or photographing them
while on duty. But a recent incident in the UK took the prohibition of photography to an entirely new level when a citizen was told he was not allowed to photograph his own daughter.
UK citizen Chris White took his daughter to the Braehead shopping center near Glasgow on Friday and ran into trouble when photographing her within the mall.
According to White, he had photographed his daughter eating an ice cream while "looking cute on the back of a Vespa seat at an ice cream bar." He had uploaded the photos to Facebook.
White was then approached by a security guard, who told him to delete the photos he had taken. The security guard also mentioned that there were signs within the establishment saying that photographs were not allowed. Apparently, employees at the ice cream bar had told security that they were suspicious of White for taking pictures at their counter, and had thought that he was also taking pictures of them.
White told the security guard that he had already sent the two photos to Facebook, and that's when the
police were called
. They took White's information and noted that they could take the mobile phone as well under the Prevention of Terrorism Act. White was then allowed to leave.
A spokesman for the Braehead shopping center assured that the police were polite about dealing with the situation, and that the matter was handled correctly.
"Our priority is always to maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for all of our shoppers and retailers," said the Braehead spokesman. "The member of our security staff acted in good faith. We have a
'no photography' policy
in the centre to protect the privacy of staff and shoppers and to have a legitimate opportunity to challenge suspicious behavior if required. However, it is not our intention to -- and we do not -- stop innocent family members taking pictures."
Superintendent George Nedley, of Renfrewshire and Inverclyde division, said a "full review" has been launched in regards to a complaint regarding White's photography incident.

We are fortunate to have a number of lactation professionals and trained volunteers on the forums, such IBCLCs and WIC or LLL peer counselors. It's great to have so much expertise and experience here to help mothers who have questions!
We ask that if you have medical or lactation credentials that you do not include them as part of your username or in your signature. There are two reasons for this:
1) If someone comes onto the board claiming to be a lactation consultant, for example, we have no way of verifying it or being sure that person is who they claim. I'm sure it's in good faith 99% of the time, but we want to be careful.
2) This board is about mothers helping mothers. So your real credentials are your own breastfeeding experience. No titles necessary.
The only exception to this is when LLL Leaders are here representing LLL. They have their identities verified and are designated by the blue LLL logo as an avatar.

Nothing Really Matters…until the ALDS…
I don't like this week…
Since the Yankees clinched the AL East and best league record, they haven't had anything to play for.
The Yanks presently have 102 wins, but I wouldn't be surprised if that ends up as the season total. With the Yankees relegated to spring training-like intensity, their possible first round opponents are engaged in a 'knock down, drag out' battle to the end. The Tigers have the edge, but tonight the Tigers are losing and the Twins are winning so the 2 game lead may be reduced to 1. This race will most likely go to the wire, so the winner of the AL Central will come into the AL Division Series at a very high intensity level.
Kevork Djansevian/Getty Images
Jim Mone/AP
Hopefully, the Yanks will be able to kick start their own intensity level when the ALDS begins. Otherwise, they could get off to a sluggish start.
Well, so much for a 20 win season for CC Sabathia. Pitching tonight against the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, CC lasted just 2 2/3 innings. He gave up 8 hits and 9 runs (4 of the runs were unearned due to a rare Mark Teixeira error). It is my hope that the ALDS will feature the August-September version of Sabathia. But of course, my good friend Julia (of Julia's Rants) was very quick to note: "It's October – I see that CC is getting into playoff form…".
Chris O'Meara/AP
I know that CC has a career 7.92 ERA in postseason play, but he does have a chance for redemption. A win in Game 1 of the ALDS would be a great start…
McGrath/Getty Images
Back when Clint Hurdle was fired as manager of the Colorado Rockies, who would have guessed that the Rockies would enter the final weekend with a chance to overtake the Los Angeles Dodgers. Entering tonight's game between the two teams, the Dodgers hold a slim 2 game lead. The Dodgers are assured of a playoff spot, but they've definitely struggled the second half. At this point, I'd have to say that I like the St. Louis Cardinals as the eventual National League Champion. I have always wanted to see a Cardinals-Yankees World Series, so hopefully this is the year. My first baseball game (in person) featured the Los Angeles Dodgers in St. Louis against the Cardinals, so a Cards-Yanks series is definitely a sentimental choice for me.
The Green Bay Packers travel to Minnesota to face the Vikings on Monday, so the hype should definitely be building over the next couple of days. Of course, this won't be anything like the game in November when the Vikings travel to Lambeau Field, but it will still be strange watching Favre work against the Packers. Nevertheless, I still think Favre looks strange in purple…

Ah..it was a great game for the Yankees last night!😉 Can you believe that it is the last weekend of the regular season already? April seems like it was so long ago! I'm ready for the playoffs – though while you might be thinking St. Louis and Yankees I'm leaning towards a Red Sox-Rockies WS! Good luck to the Vikings on Monday night – it will be interesting game.
Well, if the Twins make the playoffs, I wouldn't worry about C.C. too much. He has always owned us, and I expect that pwnage to continue. Besides, I think the reason he struggled so much for Cleveland and Milwaukee in the postseason is that they rode him too hard during the regular season. C.C. is a beast, but he led the league in innings pitched for both teams, since they really didn't have anyone else who could pick up the slack. The Yankees haven't had to rely on him so much, so he should be fresh as a daisy for the ALDS.-Erinhttp://plunking-gomez.blogspot.com
I'd like to hear more about the first game you saw against the Dodgers and Cardinals! Did my beloved Bums win?
I am nervous about the game on Wednesday but I have faith on my two Lefties Wolf and Kershaw. Kershaw had that 'public enemy number one" curveball working.
It's time for a double dose of Minnesota.. tonight and tomorrow night. They both should be fantastic! And.. it looks like the Yankees woke up!
Hey Scott…how have you been? Ready for the playoffs yet?? Don't worry about CC – even if he bombs, it's only one game right?🙂 Ok, i'll be nice – go vikings!
