Natural Cures For Cold Sores – How to Find Relief Now
Feeling the tingling of a fever blister developing near or on your lip is never a pleasant experience. Cold sores are not only uncomfortable, they are unsightly. There is no effective way to cover them up and you immediately become self conscious when you have to venture out of the house with a cold sore in full view. Visiting the doctor for treatment is one approach but there is another. If you are interested in natural cures for cold sores, there are a few options available to you that will give you some impressive results.
One of the best natural cures for cold sores is tea tree oil. Tea tree oil is a topical ointment that you can use for many ailments. It works well to help dry out cold sores, but is most effective if used as soon as you feel a cold sore developing. Just dab a small amount of tea tree oil directly onto the cold sore. You should repeat this several times a day and remember to wash your hands after each application. Cold sores are highly contagious so you want to ensure you don't pass the virus on to anyone else.
Boosting your immune system is one of the natural cures for cold sores that have added benefits. In order to ward off the herpes virus that causes fever blisters you should take Vitamin C. Vitamin C is readily available in chewable or tablet form. It's a great idea to add a Vitamin C supplement to your daily health regime as it will help you fight off common ailments such as the flu and colds. It may seem like a good idea to drink more orange juice to get even more Vitamin C, but the acid in the juice can actually make the cold sore even worse.

Are you one of those drivers who blinks your lights to warn oncoming motorists that a traffic cop waits just ahead?
State Rep. John Becker wants to make sure your right to flash is protected under Ohio law. The Cincinnati Republican introduced House Bill 475 last week because a Missouri driver was prosecuted for his headlight harbinger.
A federal judge issued an injunction to bar the law from being enforced, which he said was a violation of the First Amendment's freedom of speech guarantee.
Lt. David Smith of the State Highway Patrol's Columbus Metro post said troopers don't mind the headlight signal because it's a deterrence to speeders. "If they want to slow down on their own, more power to them."
The oft-made assertion that there's no fracking in Ohio's state parks should come with an asterisk.
About 4 acres in a corner of Quail Hollow State Park southeast of Akron already are open to the process to extract oil and gas from shale deep beneath the surface. However, no drill rigs will appear on park property; the material would be accessed from horizontal wells outside the boundary, state officials say.
Ironically, the out-of-state fracker — Chesapeake Energy — took advantage of Ohio's controversial "unitization" law to gain access to the park.
That provision allows frackers to add properties of unwilling owners to large drilling units as long as at least 65 percent of the acres in a unit have been leased. Ohio taxpayers would get an eighth of the net royalties from any oil and gas pulled from underneath the property; state officials turned down a signing bonus of $5,002.50 since they didn't want to be part of Chesapeake's plan.
Sharen Neuhardt mentioned almost in passing last week that she and Ed FitzGerald would be making their income-tax forms public as part of their campaign as the Democratic gubernatorial ticket.
Gov. John Kasich and Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor are undecided whether they will. Campaign spokeswoman Connie Wehrkamp said the GOP ticket would be filing financial-disclosure statements, as required by law.
"It touches on far more than a tax return ever could and includes information on investments, loans and other important information that Ohioans deserve to know to ensure that their public officials are doing their jobs with integrity," Wehrkamp said.
Four years ago, Gov. Ted Strickland released 10 years of his tax forms and repeatedly chided Kasich for not making public the filings that would have detailed his compensation from Lehman Brothers, the investment firm that went belly up in 2008.
Kasich allowed reporters to view, but not copy, portions of his 2008 return that showed he and his wife made more than $1.1 million.

Effective post-op pain management can make the difference between a rapid, uneventful recovery and a long, complicated post-op stay. Good post-op pain management benefits the patient by providing consistent care in a sometimes uncertain and frightening hospital environment. In addition to providing the best patient care, ensuring proper pain management may decrease hospital length of stay, and in these uncertain economic times, it also makes good business sense.
Unmet pain management needs during hospitalization may lead to decreased patient satisfaction and decreased likelihood to recommend the hospital to others. Some consequences of untreated acute pain are:
* decreased mobility
* increased risk of infection
* atelectasis and pneumonia
* increased risk of venous thromboem-bolism
* impaired bowel function
* chronic pain syndromes.
Treating acute or chronic pain presents unique challenges to care providers. Often, patients with chronic pain will be admitted to the hospital for a surgical procedure. Proactively planning for elective procedures can result in a smooth post-op course. For nonelective patients, a multidisciplinary approach and involvement of specialists early on is recommended.
The patient's self-report is the best source of information for treatment interventions. Many clinicians struggle with what they perceive as the incongruity between patients' actions and words, but you must rely on a patient's report of pain. Pain perception is subjective because of differences in neurochemical physiology, past experience, emotional makeup, and cultural -differences. Therefore, it's of no use to compare patients with one another; each person will rate the severity of pain -differently.
Several scales are available to assess pain intensity; examples are the FLACC (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) scale for 0 to 3 years old, the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale, and the 0-to-10 numeric rating scale. Two factors to -consider when choosing a pain intensity scale are (1) validity and reliability and (2) appropriateness.
Be consistent with the scale used throughout the patient's hospitalization, unless there's a change in condition. Assess for pain at rest and with activity as part of a thorough post-op pain assessment. The goal of pain management is to optimize function and promote comfort. This will help to tailor the interventions to the planned activity; for example, administering pain medication before physical therapy and dressing changes.
One challenge in pain assessment is the nonverbal, cognitively intact patient. There are many valid and reliable assessment tools for cognitively impaired patients (such as the Pain Assessment in Advanced Dementia and the Checklist of Nonverbal Pain Indicators); however, tools for nonverbal, cognitively intact patients are still in the validation process (such as the Behavioral Pain Scale and the Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool). Pay attention to nonverbal cues that may reflect pain or discomfort, such as guarding, grimacing, and other body language.
When developing a post-op pain management care plan, communication is key. There should be one physician (such as a surgeon or anesthesiologist) in charge of prescribing the appropriate medical treatment. Involving patients in decisions about their care and treatment goals will improve communication and trust, and may increase patient satisfaction.
Opioids are the mainstay of treatment for moderate-to-severe pain. The three most common are morphine, hydromorphone, and fentanyl. These drugs differ with regard to onset, peak, and duration (see Common post-op opioids). The best medication for the situation should be chosen; for example, if a patient has extreme pain (writhing) upon arrival to the postanesthesia care unit, fentanyl would be the best choice because of its quick onset.
Morphine has an onset of action of 5 to 10 minutes in most patients, with a peak effect at 15 minutes. Doses that are given too frequently may lead to oversedation or respiratory depression due to a "stacking" effect. Meperidine has fallen out of favor due to poor efficacy, as well as central nervous system (CNS) toxicity. However, it's useful at low doses for post-op rigors (shivering).
The main route of administration for post-op pain medications is I.V., followed by a transition to oral medication. I.M. medications shouldn't be used unless absolutely nece-ssary because their route of administration is painful and they have poor and unpredictable absorption. Let's take a closer look.
Epidural catheter placement and intrathecal injections are neuraxial methods of medication administration, performed by an anesthesiologist or certified RN anesthetist. Medication is injected into specific areas surrounding the spinal cord. Most often, an opioid and a local anesthetic are used -together to block sensory pain signals with the goal of maintaining motor nerve function. In other words, there's decreased incisional pain without inhibiting movement. Complications of epidural blocks can -include poor sensory blockade, catheter -dislodgement or migration, and excessive motor blockade.
Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) is a method that allows the patient to self--administer a dose of pain medication through a pump to autonomously manage pain. The pump can be programmed to deliver both a basal (continuous) infusion and/or a demand (bolus) dose. I.V. basal (continuous) rates should be avoided in patients who are opioid naive. Patient selection and education are key. The patient shouldn't only be physically capable of pressing the button, but should also have the mental capacity to understand why, when, and how to press the button. The only time that PCA should be administered by someone other than the patient is during clinician boluses or in appropriate pediatric populations. The safety features incorporated into the pump help to prevent inadvertent overdose or adverse events. PCA can be administered I.V. or through an epidural catheter. With patient-controlled epidural analgesia, a continuous infusion is delivered, in addition to a demand dose.
Peripheral nerve blocks involve the injection of local anesthetics in or around the nerve plexus. They're used as part of a -preemptive and multimodal approach to provide effective pain management with minimal adverse reactions. Peripheral nerve blocks provide sensory and some motor blockade and are most often used for orthopedic procedures, such as shoulder or elbow surgery. Educate patients to protect the extremity by immobilization and proper positioning. Monitor patients for potential adverse reactions, complications, and efficacy. Assess patients for signs and symptoms of systemic toxicity, including tachycardia, hypertension, tinnitus, metallic taste, -circumoral numbness, CNS depression, and seizures.
Local anesthetic infusion provides a continuous infusion of local anesthetic directly or adjacent to the surgical site as one component of a multimodal approach to post-op pain management. Assess patients for signs and symptoms of local anesthetic toxicity.
Oral pain medication provides a conven-ient route of administration. Around-the-clock dosing provides more consistent pain control by maintaining consistent blood levels as compared with as-needed dosing. In preparation for discharge, the post-op patient should be transitioned to oral medications as early as possible to determine -efficacy and tolerability.
As part of a comprehensive treatment plan, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for additional pain relief from inflammation caused by surgery may be beneficial in appropriate patients, with consideration of bleeding risks and cardiovascular adverse reactions. Acetaminophen may also be used as an adjunct to opioids. The advantage of acetaminophen is that it inhibits pain at a different point in the pain pathway. Combination products containing opioids and acetaminophen are available, but there's a limit on the number of doses per day. The maximum amount of acetaminophen is 4,000 mg/day to avoid serious liver toxicity. The FDA has recently recommended decreasing the amount of acetaminophen in combination products and may consider decreasing the maximum daily dose of -acetaminophen in the near future.
Other medications can be used in combination with opioids for the treatment of more complex or chronic pain conditions. Referred to as adjuvants, examples include antiepileptics, antidepressants, steroids, and the N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid antagonist ketamine.
Fentanyl is available as a long-acting transdermal patch and is approved for -opioid-tolerant patients only. Fentanyl patches are generally used in the management of chronic pain and can be encountered in the hospitalized surgical patient. Serious adverse reactions have resulted from improper prescribing, such as the use of fentanyl patches in opioid naive patients. Keep in mind that heat, either direct or indirect, can increase absorption to dangerous levels.
Prevention and management of adverse reactions are integral components of a good pain management plan. Pre-op screening of patients for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and other obstructive breathing conditions (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma) can identify those patients at risk for respiratory depression. Close monitoring of post-op ventilatory function should include respiratory rate, as well as depth and quality of respirations. End-tidal CO2 monitoring is an effective modality for assessing ventilation and should be used when appropriate. Oxygen saturation measures levels of oxygen in the blood and is a late marker for respiratory depression; a patient could have respiratory depression and still have an acceptable SpO2 level. For more information, refer to the American Society of Anesthesiologists OSA guidelines.
Sedation is an unintended adverse reaction of opioids and occurs all too often. Be aware of other medications that cause sedation such as antihistamines. An easy scale for quantifying the level of sedation in patients receiving opioids is the Pasero Opioid-induced Sedation Scale.
Common adverse reactions of opioids include itching, nausea, vomiting, delirium, hallucinations, and constipation. Constipation is the only adverse reaction that patients don't develop a tolerance to over time, and preventive therapy should be initiated for all patients on opioids. Laxative medications that contain both a stimulant and a stool softener are most effective.
Itching can be managed by giving antihistamines, low doses of mu-receptor antagonists, or mixed agonists/antagonists. Mu-receptor antagonists and mixed -agonists/antagonists should be used cautiously and at low doses to prevent loss of pain -control.
Post-op nausea and vomiting are unfortunate consequences of surgery and opioid therapy. Before surgery, risk factors for post-op nausea and vomiting should be assessed. For refra-ctory nausea and vomiting, medications with different mechanisms of action should be combined for the most effective prevention and treatment. In other words, if one medication isn't effective, more of the same medication isn't likely to be effective. For more information, refer to the American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses guidelines on postoperative and postdischarge nausea and vomiting.
In general, most opioid-induced adverse reactions can be managed by decreasing the dose of opioids and adding adjunctive therapy. Patient education should include information about constipation prevention, duration of therapy, and gradual weaning of opioids after discharge if the patient is on a prolonged course of therapy. Some patients are concerned about becoming addicted to opioids. Provide reassurance that true addiction in patients taking opioids for treatment of pain is extremely rare.
Take time to assess and reassess pain in the post-op setting. Treat patients using multiple modalities, including pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic interventions. Include your patient in the pain management care plan, and be aware that the mismanagement of post-op pain can lead to a life of chronic pain.
Adverse reactions to opioids include:
* sedation
* respiratory depression
* constipation
* nausea/vomiting
* itching
* confusion/delirium
* hallucinations.
Danger signs of oversedation include:
* falling asleep in the middle of a conversation
* unable to arouse
* hypoventilation (decreased respiratory rate)
* apnea
* unable to participate in activities of daily living.
* Obtain an accurate medication -history, including over-the-counter medications, herbals/supplements, -recreational drugs, and alcohol.
* Ask about medication allergies, including type of reaction and circumstances surrounding the reaction.
* Ask about average daily dosage of opioids. (For example, if the patient's prescription is for hydrocodone one to two tablets every 4 to 6 hours as needed, how many tablets does the patient normally take per day?)
* Include the patient in the care plan.
* Use a multimodal approach to pain -management.
* Have a nonjudgmental attitude.

My first strong memories of images came from art books I checked out from the public library over and over again. One particular series of books contained many stylized images outlined with a thick black line. I would spend hours drawing and tracing the patterns often times turning them into faux stained glass with colored tissue paper glued between black construction paper. These books as well as school workbooks influenced my fourty years of art work.
After I became old enough to peruse the art shelves by myself, I discovered a whole new world through art. Matisse and Picasso were my favorite artists because they often used strong lines to delineate shapes and forms; I studied their works and copied their styles.
Later, when I became a teacher, I was drawn to my students spontaneous, bold imagery. Young children draw simply with strong lines often dictated by the materials they use. I had a fascination with watching them work and develop an art vocabulary. I enjoyed the years I worked with children because I was always a part of their wonder, their exploration of themselves and their world.
When I was creating this body of work, I thought about my early contact with books, my childhood art, my family and the impact they had encouraging me to create. That has led to the use of retro images, intense layering and stenciling.

2014 Cadillac Escalade in San Antonio, TX
As we get ready for the 2015 Cadillac Escalade to arrive to Cavender Cadillac, the 2014 Cadillac Escalade in San Antonio, TX is available in our showroom to show customers that the Escalade is still at the cutting edge of luxury transportation. The changes coming down the pipe for the new Escalade are outstanding, however, the 2014 model-year of the Escalade show what has made it one of the most sought after luxury vehicles ever built.
Quality materials and construction have long been hallmarks of Cadillac design. The 2014 Escalade certainly has each of those elements in spades. Outstanding comfort for all passengers has remained in the new Escalade as well has the performance that has propelled the full-size SUV to the top of its automotive segment. In addition to the interior comforts, the new Cadillac Escalade also has the powerful V-8 engine to allow more functionality beyond just looking good.
Performance of the 2014 Cadillac Escalade
To properly and safely move a vehicle with such capabilities, a very serious engine is required. In the case of the 2014 Cadillac Escalade in San Antonio, TX a 6.2-liter, V-8 engine that can produce a maximum of 403 horsepower with 417 pound-feet of torque. A rear-wheel drive drivetrain with a six-speed automatic is the standard set up for most models of the 2014 Cadillac Escalade that are available at Cavender Cadillac. There is also an all-wheel drive version of the 2014 Escalade that is meant for light-duty use and does not have low-range gear.
When it comes to towing performance, the body-on-frame construction 2014 Cadillac Escalade in San Antonio, TX has almost no equal in the luxury SUV department. A properly equipped Escalade with rear-wheel drive and the appropriate towing equipment will easily pull an impressive maximum amount of cargo weighing in at 8,300 pounds. Without the trailer attached, the new Escalade can go from zero-to-60 mph in 7.5 seconds.
Interior and safety elements of the 2014 Cadillac Escalade
Climbing into the driver's seat of a 2014 Cadillac Escalade in San Antonio, TX places the driver into a very commanding view of the road and the surrounding area. Also immediately evident, is the amount of time that was paid to making sure everything about the passenger cabin was all but dripping with luxury. Every seat in the Escalade is built for maximum comfort and has wonderfully supportive seats designed for long trips. Also the third row of seats in the new Escalade is comfortable for most people and easier to access than most.
The safety features on the 2014 Cadillac Escalade in San Antonio, TX includes antilock brakes, electronic stability and traction control as well as several air bags meant to protect everyone in the vehicle in the unfortunate event of a crash. Also, considering the size of the 2014 Escalade, it is a rather maneuverable vehicle; thanks in no small part to the intense attention to the suspension and handling characteristics. The Escalade also has enough power to accelerate its way around obstacles.

The Jervis McEntee Diaries - September 3, 1885
Diary Entry:
Thursday, Sept 3, 1885 My man finished the blasting at noon today. I was much interesting in talking with him yesterday to hear of the struggles and anxieties of a poor, hardworking, conscientious man with a large family to provide for. Work has been slack with him this year on the coal dock and he had bought a house and lot which he fears he will lose and to add to his burdens his wife is sickly and last year he paid twenty five dollars to Dr. Chalker. I always wish I could do something to help such a man. I laid the drain pipes six inches lower than they were before and Tom commenced to cover them up. Mrs. Cornell drove up in her elegant carriage with Miss Cooper and I went in to see them in my ragged coat and working garb, and amused them by holding out my hat for a penny. It has been a cool, lovely day but this evening there are indications of rain. Calvert left this morning. I drove him up to the station. I awoke feeling very badly. My head ached and has felt badly all day. A little indigestion I think the result of a little cold. Cousin Rachel is sick also and did not come down to dinner or tea. There is an account in todays Tribune of the shooting of a man in Duchess Co. by [?] younger brother and Frank Andersons wifes father. He seems to have got into a passion and deliberately shot the man twice, for pasturing his cows in the road near his farm. What trouble he has brought upon himself and his children by his violent temper. Cousin Rachel would be distressed if she knew it as Frank's wife is there with her children. What trouble people make for themselves when a little patience might have spared it all.

CZ's Urban Counter Sniper Rifle Combines Outstanding Accuracy with Compact Size.
Story & Photos by Brad Fitzgerald
Ceska Zbrojovka.
The latest winner of America's Top Model?
Not quite. If you're a firearms aficionado, the name represents beauty of a different sort, although you probably use the more familiar (and spell check-friendly) initials "CZ."
The company has been making guns for a long time (since 1936, to be exact), but only relatively recently has the name become commonplace among U.S. shooters, thanks in no small part to the establishment of their CZ-USA facility in Kansas City, Kansas. In the past decade and a half, CZ has won over a number of American fans, and with good reason. They make quality, serviceable guns at an attractive price, and—perhaps more than any other company over the last decade—continue to offer shooters new and different firearms that make sense.
In an era when bolt-action .22s were appearing less and less frequently in company catalogs, CZ introduced a lineup of extremely accurate, robustly built rimfires, and American shooters took note. Today, the company's 455 model is well respected in benchrest circles, and more and more new shooters are cutting their teeth on CZ .22s. The company has produced big bore, dangerous game rifles since the 1980s, when the Brno 602 challenged the Winchester Model 70 as the go-to bolt gun for dangerous African game. Today, CZ's big bore line-up is the most extensive of any manufacturer in the United States. Their elegant side-by-side and over/under shotguns feature nice stocks, solid actions with color case finishing and a classy look at a reasonable price.
As I said…beauty of a different sort.
The CZ story didn't begin with the production of quality sporting and target guns, however. It began with the production of military and law enforcement weapons, and the company still produces guns used the world over. Most of these military weapons are semiautomatic rifles and pistols—such as the 805 Bren and the new P-09 (Editor's note: See our October issue for our P-09 test drive)—but the CZ brass hasn't forgotten how to build a rifle around their solid 550 bolt action. CZ has offered a number of tactical and semi-tactical rifles based on the 550 over the years, and by and large these have been a success.
This year, CZ added another tactical horse to their growing stable with the 550 Urban Counter Sniper (UCS), a gun that exemplifies many of the things that CZ does well. First of all, this is a company that does an excellent job zeroing in on areas of consumer interest and creating unique products that not only fit the market but oftentimes create a new buzz. Such was the case with the introduction of CZ's Bobwhite and Ringneck side-by-sides. These guns were attractive and attractively priced, and soon bird hunters began falling in love with them. Another of CZ's talents is seeing new markets for existing products; the 550 action was already available; the company just needed a new platform.
Enter the 550 UCS. I clearly remember testing the company's little Bobwhite side-by-side shotgun. Everyone at the range wanted to look it over, and the bolder ones would ask if they could shoot it. The reaction to the UCS has been the same. With its short Teflon-coated barrel, hefty Bell and Carlson fiberglass stock with spider web design, and a radical looking Surefire muzzle brake that is QD suppressor compatible, the UCS is an eye-catching rifle.
Make no mistake. The CZ is not a dressed-up 550 rifle with costume combat paint. Unlike other companies that slap a heavy barrel and a fat stock on their standard bolt gun and market it to the tactical crowd, the UCS is a purpose-built weapon designed for a very specific task. The UCS does incorporate the regular CZ 50 action, but the 550 is well-respected in shooting circles for its dependability. It's a controlled-round action with a full-length claw extractor for a strong bite and secure feeding. The action is polished to a glassy smoothness, and the bolt runs in the action like it's been freshly greased. The bolt handle has an oversized knob and the outside of the action has a non-glare matte finish.
The Bell and Carlson stock is Kevlar and has a wide beavertail fore end with twin sling studs and a palm swell that helps provide a solid platform. The stock has a full-length aluminum bedding block to help increase the rigidity of the action and provide consistent groups. Aluminum bedding blocks provide a rock-solid platform and aid in accuracy, but they are expensive and are typically only found in high-end rifles like the UCS. The short (16-inch) barrel is free-floated and coated in Teflon to give a dull, dark olive green and protect the rifle from the elements. The barrel is free floated, and one of the things that CZ prides itself on is excellent barrel harmonics, or the imperceptible (to humans, at least) movement of the barrel after firing. For a rifle to be really, really accurate, it must be properly bedded and have good barrel harmonics. As you'll see in the range portion of this test, the UCS gets high grades in both.
At the end of the barrel you'll find the unconventional looking Surefire muzzle brake/suppressor adaptor, yet another sign that CZ was serious when they set out to build a top-of-the line sniper rifle. All those angled notches and cuts in the Surefire brake aren't just for looks…they're part of a patented system called Impulse Diffusion that is designed to minimize the effects of muzzle blast and rearward concussive effects. Between the heft of the rifle and the outstanding performance of the Surefire brake, it was possible to shoot the UCS and remain on-target in the Trijicon scope, work the bolt, and fire a rapid second shot. The Surefire brake also serves as a mounting device for the company's Fast-Attach suppressors. CZ made a smart move by bringing Surefire into the equation. These brakes/suppressors aren't cheap, but they are highly effective and of the type and quality you'd expect to find in a rifle of this class.
The UCS incorporates CZ's single stage set trigger. To place the trigger in the set position, press it forward until it clicks into position. Once it does, don't breathe too hard on that trigger, because when you imagine what an ultra-light, break-like-glass trigger feels like, it's probably something like the feel of the CZ's trigger in the set position. From the unset position, trigger pull hovers around four and a half pounds, which isn't terrible, but when that trigger is set it requires just less than two pounds of pressure to fire the rifle. The good news is that if you have time to set that trigger between shots it isn't going to take much more than a pulse of your finger to send the bullet downrange.
The receiver of the UCS is machined so that CZ one-piece rings mount directly to the receiver, and the corresponding notch in the receiver matches a post on the scope rings so that you can't screw up the mounting process. When the scope is locked down, it's a solid mounting system that doesn't shake loose, and the UCS comes with either 30mm or one-inch rings, depending upon your preference. In addition, the rifle is supplied with two detachable box magazines, one that has a five round capacity and one that holds ten. The overall length of the rifle is just 37 inches, and the weight is about eight and a quarter pounds, making the Urban Counter Sniper ideal for tight spaces.

No takers for lesser mortals, society watches on 30,000 orphan girls await marriage
Aliya Bashir In a startling revelation, at least 30,000 orphan girls of Kashmir, who are in mid-30, are not able to get married due to lack of money. The development has set alarm bells ringing across Kashmir and once again put a question mark on the functioning of orphanages. A R Hanjura, Founder of Islamic Relief and Research Trust (IRRT), said that the Kashmir has 2, 14,000 orphans in which around 30,000 girls are waiting since long to get married but are not able to due to poverty. "In the last ten years, we have been able to help only 4000-5000 girls to get married. We provided them with financial assistance of Rs 2000-2500 and distributed few marriage items in a bridal kit. But, that is not enough as there are a huge number of orphans who have reached the suitable age of marriages and are not even able to perform their marriages," he said, adding that these orphan girls are not even able to perform their marriages in a simple way. According to a report titled 'Orphaned in Kashmir' by Save the Children, the estimated population of orphans in Jammu and Kashmir is 2, 14,000 and 37 per cent of them were orphaned due to the armed conflict. On the basis of total child population of the state in 2009, the estimated number of orphans stands at over two lakhs in which 55 per cent orphans across the state are between the age group of 7-18 years followed by around 38 per cent in the 15-18 years age group. The percentage of orphans below six years of age was found below seven percent. There is a growing trend in Kashmir from past many years where people are spending in lakhs and crores when it comes to marriages as people are doing everything larger than life. The extravaganza in the festivity from buying expensive jeweller to designer outfits and spending in food to decorations and other rituals has made the whole affair of marriage quite un-affordable for the lower-income groups. While highlighting the problems of orphan girls, Zahoor Ahmed Tak, Chairman Jammu and Kashmir Yateem Trust said that the situation has become disastrous for orphan girls as they are facing problems in getting employment, no suitable matches and tension-filled society who are not ready to marry orphan girls and give her a new life by expecting a reward from Allah. "There are no exact figures to suggest the accurate number of orphans who have reached the prime age of their marriages but as per the rough estimates we have more than 20, 000 orphan girls who are already in their mid-30's but are yet to get married," he said. Tak further said that the over-age due to the delayed marriages is taking a heavy toll on the physical as well as mental health of girls which at the end results in adjustment problems. "The increasing social evils in marriage institutions demand for dowry, working girls and boys and increase in materialism are some of the major reasons which are pushing the orphan further to alienation. Everyone talks about the problems and different reasons but no one is bothered to help them on ground and accepting them is a far issue," he added. Dr. Arshid Hussain, a renowned psychiatrist said that the late marriages especially for orphan girls can have devastating effects on the psychological health that are already separated from the normal functioning of the society. "The negative effects of late marriage on orphans can range from depression to marital disharmony. Beyond a normal phase of marriage age, they might not be able to enjoy the benefits of marriage and there can be hormonal imbalance and procreation is a biggest issue which may get disturbed due to hormonal imbalance," he said.0Send Me Love
I echo you as we lift voices as one!
Let us Hope together- Michelle aka: Cali gal Listener Sister-Mentor @CaliGalMichelle facebook.com/caligalmichelle Tweets by @CaliGalMich
It is sad to know that the higher middle class spends lakhs for their marriages while these poor orphan women syffer because of no funds.
If the society could be a little more giving,and help in rehabilitating these girls,then that would be fantastic.
Thank you Aliyah for sharing such a poignant story on the eve of International Girls Day.
Much love
Mukut Ray
The situation you highlighted in your piece is quite disturbing and I hope discrimination soon become a thing of the past in our world. I hope too that fate and good fortune smiles on those orphans; soonest.
Nice post!
Yes Aliya,
What a critical state is the economic system of the country with the rich getting richer and poor getting poorer each day. All this gold and treasure gets piled up where there is already plenty and the a singly penny that remains is grabbed from the poor. The attitude of people has to change to bring an end to this. I see millions spent on the celebrations of weddings here just for the very single day with pomp and glory for the celebrities in India and mostly ending up in a separation or divorce within no time. Hope these ups and downs be leveled one day and everyone enjoy their share.
Thanks for posting.
Love. Sharon

Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has announced the first titles to emerge from its recent publishing agreement with Hudson Soft. Fishing Master and Sports Island have both been created specifically for the Wii™ and will be released in Q1 and Q2 2008 respectively.
Fishing Master makes full use of the motion-sensitive Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers, and is a fun simulation allowing users to test their angling skills as they attempt to catch over 100 species of fish. Players use the Wii Remote to cast their line, aiming for the silhouettes of fish in the game's beautifully-realised lakes. With the line cast, the Nunchuk is then used to reel in any catches by rotating the analogue stick. However, with the fish putting up valiant fights to get free, careful movement of the Remote is needed to counter their thrashing movements.
Fishing Master boasts a wealth of gameplay modes, with a Tutorial easing users into the intricacies of the game, while solo anglers can opt to earn points by catching rare fish and ultimately receiving the esteemed Fishing Master accolade, or can attempt to catch every species in the game to complete a graphic Fish Encyclopedia. Certain quests and special tournaments offer fishing further variety and let you explore new areas rich in fish. Four players can also compete simultaneously in the game's multi-player mode, each attempting catch bigger and rare fish than their rivals!
Sports Island is an altogether more athletic offering, pulling together ten sporting events and pushing the player to their limits. Players are invited to play addictive Adidas-endorsed versions of Beach Volley, Football, Badminton, Basketball, Curling, Figure Skating, Archery, Moto Cross, Snowboarding and Kart Race. Each uses the Wii Remote and Nunchuk in unique yet accessible ways. As such, a subtle swing of the Wii Remote is used to hit the ball in Volleyball, while subtle twists are needed to ride the slopes in the Snowboarding section.
Up to four players can compete in each event, and, with its entertaining multi-player modes and varied gameplay, Sports Island is an ideal game for players of all ages. Each sport is brilliantly realised and intuitive to play, with sports such as Football and Basketball featuring all the passes and skill of the real thing but without sacrificing immediacy. Similarly, thelikes of Figure Skating and Curling demand precision from the player and a different range of skills, guaranteeing hours of entertainment as players attempt to climb the in-game leader boards at the expense of their friends.
Fishing Master and Sports Island will be released for Wii in Q1 and Q2, 2008. For more information, please contact Steve Merrett at Voltage PR on 020 7903 5122 or email email@example.com.

Or the users. For the past week and half, the Playstation Network (its online services such as online play, Netflix, etc.) has been experiencing issues, but without any ETA provided by the company as to when it will be fixed when the issues first issued. In an announcement today that has shocked many, the news is grim. Those who have given all their personal info, well it has been taken. What does that mean? Among things such as the PSN ID, per the blog, things that were obtained were the "name, address (city, state, zip), country, email address, birthdate, PlayStation Network/Qriocity password and login, and handle/PSN online ID," as well as "your profile data, including purchase history and billing address (city, state, zip), and your PlayStation Network/Qriocity password security answers may have been obtained." This is not good news by any means, and the blog goes more into detail about what can be done. The good thing is that with this announcement today, they have also given an ETA as to when the Network will be up and running, which should be within the week, but is too little late Logging In...

Let me tell you something. No company EVER gives anything away for free dude. The consoles are more expensive and so are the games. That's because the cost of running this "free" service is built in to them. I like ps3 also but the way they handled this was ridiculous. It's been a week since the outage began and they're only now letting us in on the fact our private information was compromised???? The only reason they're admitting it at all is because they've failed to cover it up. People are tired of companies who treat us this way. We had every right to know immediately so we could make provisions. Sony is going to lose out bigtime because of this. And it's all they're own fault. I'm buying an x-box today. I'll bet a million dollars I won't be the only one. Reply Chrisreplied: View April 27, 2011 nooooooooooooo!!!!!! Reply sanreplied: View April 27, 2011 you do know that.. if this situation gets any worse you may not even have a fully functional psn until june..and be prepared to start paying.. trust me it always goes like this Reply Joe Sinicki View April 27, 2011 Question for you guys — do you think Sony owes those effected by the outage anything? It's a tricky situation, since yes, a service that Sony provides is unavailable, but at the same time the majority of users are using the free service. Is it necessary for Sony to compensate for the lost time? I say yes. While it is true that most aren't really paying for the service anyways, Sony is getting a ton of negative publicity from this whole thing (PSN-Gate 2011 as we here at Blast Tower have dubbed it), and are going to have to do something to make people happy again. Of course the first thing is to create a stronger network — and stop taunting the hackers — but I think they need to do something to make their millions of users happy. I'm interested to hear what our readers have to say. Reply

One of the most notable occasions where she was a rallying point for Māori people was during World War I, when she objected to conscription. Te Puea made her farm available to those escaping … Continue readingPosted in Historical Royals, New Zealand Royals | Tagged Biography, Māori, Te Puea Hèrangi | Leave a comment
Danish Fashion for the Greek State Visit – Day 2
On the second day of the Greek state visit, Crown Princess Mary wore a mainly yellow dress. It also featured brown spots and some blue and brown detailing at the hemline, and has a built-in belt. The princess teamed the dress with a dark grey jacket and turquoise/blue jewellery. Dark coloured peep-toe pumps completed the look. Later that day, the royal family attended a dinner and concert where Queen Margrethe … Continue readingPosted in Danish Royals | Tagged Crown Princess Mary, Fashion, Greece, Margrethe II, State Visit | Leave a comment

I've just returned from yet another trip to Great Britain — virtually that is. At the request of my friend Jason, who works for British Tours Ltd. — I re-visited their Web site at
and I'm glad that I did. This time, I got to roam the grounds of the Tower of London — at night. I'd have to say that the virtual tour of the Tower is probably the best that has been created for the British Tours Web site so far. Check it out and you'll see what I mean. A number of additional tours have also been added — make sure, though, that you put on your virtual walking shoes before you jump over to the site.
"Carping about the excesses of clueless crybabies since the turn of the century." is the motto of the folks behind the "Tongue Tied" Web site. This site is great at pointing out the inane attempts of the overly ambitious politically correct enforcers of the world. Just jump over to
and you'll either be amused or offended, depending on your political leaning, I suppose.
Dating — that is a term I have not had to use much in these past 12 years. Actually, I'm glad I don't have to play the "dating game" any more. The world has gotten way too complicated and there just seems to be no set of standards to go by anymore.
Anyway, there is a young lady who aspires to be a literary icon someday and she has established a Web site.
Amy is a very talented writer and she is using that talent to share with her fellow world citizens, her trials and tribulations of dating. I can feel her pain, confusion and frustration.
I may not be dating now, but I used to and I can easily remember some of those trying moments. Talk about a mix of chemistry — I should have taken lots of science classes while in high school, it might have helped.
You can visit Amy's Web site by going to
and you can feel free to offer her your encouragement and, if you are feeling really philanthropic, you can even donate some money to her.
How often have you ever said to yourself, "You know, I'd sure like to visit the Antarctic someday"? What a coincidence — I've had that thought myself, more than a few times in my life.
Well, the next best thing to being there is visit it on the Web, and — can you believe it, there is a news Web site dedicated to the frozen "footlands" of the Earth? Just hop on over to
and you'll learn all about the research activities that are taking place down there. There is also an archive of previous stories and of pictures that have been taken in the past.
Speaking of news sites — if we move north of the Antarctic just a little ways, we'll end up in Australia. The "Aussies" have their own unique style of humor, most of it very similar to our British friends. That unique humor even shows up in the headlines of some pretty serious news stories. You'll see what I mean if you go to
Funny things is, I didn't see any breaking stories about Crocodile Dundee.
By the way, if you didn't already know it, The Urban Dictionary at
defines "crikey" as "an expletive to express one,s surprise or happiness."
"G'day" mate.

"Find all solutions in real numbers" means you are to find all the solutions which are real (like 6), as opposed to complex (like 2+i).
So assuming you have found all the solutions (I haven't checked your work), you are done. 6 is 6, you don't have to write it any other way.

Maybe some of you follow the beat battle in this MessageBoard:
BEN BADA BOOM, BEATFUX, SOUL UP, BEATINYO, PAWL (serious namedropping in here) and myself, linked up and added some friends to release a INSTRUMENTAL SAMPLER!
We have our homies POLYPHONIX, ATTIC and ROBANZEEon board, plus EMROU (who also battles here)
Our beat-factories are peppered all over Germany - but we listened to each other here in the battles -and thought: "why not add up and be the german league of justice?"
so we formed this Group: and made our first sampler!
I think this is the best proof, that this place here creates new ways to celebrate Hip Hop and brings people together! So celebrate this BEAT BATTLE BABY WITH US AND TURN I UP!

Did you all have good Thanksgiving? Are you doing a bunch of Black Friday shopping today?
Over the first part of the week, we went to Washington DC as a birthday vacation for my mom. It was a lot of fun for the family. We left on Sunday and got back Wednesday night. Then spent Thanksgiving day with my husband's side of the family. It was a great family week all around.
Even though we got back in town only the day before Thanksgiving, we still did some cooking. Everyone just worked together to each bring a dish or two. I like it that way better anyway. Then one person isn't stuck doing ALL the cooking.
We ate and ate and ate. After all that Thanksgiving eating and rich food, I like to keep the next few days really simple in the kitchen. One way for us is to make sandwiches. I've recently discovered a quick and easy HOT sandwich that my kids love too.
Get ready for it because it's really difficult to make.
You roll your meat and cheese in a crescent roll and bake according to the package directions.
Did you get all that? Ok, let's go through it again. This time, I'll include some pictures to help you out.
Get your 3-year old to help because you'll need it.
Open a can of crescent rolls. Put on a piece of meat and a piece of cheese. Roll from the big end to the little end.
Read package directions for how long to bake.
Cut in half so you can see the melty cheese.
And these are really great for school lunches too. They taste just as cool after they have cooled down as they do hot.
