Great and safe biotin supplement.
Posted by Leione on Apr 29, 2014
Unlike many other biotin supplements, this one is non-GMO and doesn't contain any dangerous additives, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors, such as titanium dioxide, magnesium stearate, stearic acid, croscarmellose sodium, or soy. Biotin is effective in treating diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension, heart disease, obesity, arthritis, osteoporosis, neurodegenerative conditions, Alzheimer's disease, attention disorders, stress, anxiety and depression. It boosts the immune system, helps stabilize blood sugar and regulate insulin levels, prevents blood sugar spikes, normalizes blood pressure, lowers triglycerides and LDL or "bad" cholesterol levels while increasing HDL or "good" cholesterol, supports the liver function, protects against strokes, atherosclerosis and peripheral arterial disease, reduces inflammation, helps maintain healthy joints, bones and teeth, strengthens brittle nails, and relives stress. Would recommend it.
Great supplement
Posted by FancyBeauty on Aug 30, 2012
Vitamin H (biotin, vitamin B7), as a source of sulfur, which is involved in the synthesis of collagen, can be called a beauty vitamin for skin, hair and nails. That's why, because of the presence of sulfur in biotin, the skin becomes smooth, hair becomes lush, and nails are transparent. Витамин Н (биотин, витамин B7), являясь источником серы, которая принимает участие в синтезе коллагена, можно назвать витамином красоты для кожи, волос и ногтей. Так как, благодаря наличию серы в биотине, кожа становится гладкой, волосы пышными, а ногти прозрачными.
Gave Me Acne
Posted by juniper on Jan 02, 2012
During my 7 days of taking this, I had red acne appeared on my face and scalp. Good thing there are only 7 capsules, otherwise, I might still have suffered more. To those who doesn't get acne form biotin, then this is a good product.

over the course of a year or so, i have seen a vast improvement in the condition of my hair, scalp, skin and nails, and i correlate that to taking around 5 milligrams of biotin per day. this was a fantastic trial offer and too good to pass up. thank you iherb
It works !
Posted by vinetu28 on Aug 31, 2012
I have dozens of this sample and I've only been taking these Biotin supplements for 2 1/2 weeks, but I can already tell a difference.The last year or so, I've noticed that my hair is thinning in the front, and it's gotten worse the last few months as I've started perimenopause. I've also had two nails that are splitting, and I haven't been able to grow them out or do anything to stop the splitting.I bought the Biotin to help with these two problems, and so far it's already making a difference. While it's still too soon to notice any difference in the thickness of my hair, my splitting nails have already grown out to the point where they are no longer splitting. At this rate, I'm very happy with this product since it has had noticeable results. The front of my hair has started filling in, and my hair is much thicker. It sort of snuck up on me, too, how quickly this was working. The other day, I glanced down and was surprised to see that my nail was no longer splitting. I wasn't expecting such quick results, and was pleasantly surprised. Since I have seen results with my nails, eyelashes, and eyebrows, however, I know that this is working already, and I can't wait to see continued results with my hair. Nevertheless, if you're going to use a biotin supplement, consider that biotin cannot be absorbed through the skin. That means you've got to ingest it. Foods rich in biotin include egg yolk, liver and some vegetables. A lot of studies have shown potential benefits from the use of biotin supplements.Metabolism may improve as well as immunity functions. It's no wonder then that biotin can produce visible effect such as stronger and better-looking hair and nails. Since it doesn't cost that much to try using biotin and see whether you and others notice a difference, I'd consider using it without too much worry. I will be re-ordering this when all samples are gone .

Forecast Calls for More Snow in Central Oregon this Winter
Don't let the warm, dry fall season fool you. Most of Oregon's meterorologists and climatolgists are forecasting a colder and wetter than normal winter in Oregon due to La Nina effect this season. Which of course means, MORE SNOW! And not just any kind of snow, but fluffier, "powderier" snow that Central Oregon and Mt. Bachelor is known for.
Thanks to our friends at Mt. Hood Meadows for getting the winter weather skinny at the annual Oregon AMS "What will the winter be like" meeting in Portland last week. See the video below.

Bay Scallop Gratin
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 6 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 medium shallots, minced
- 2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto di Parma, minced
- 4 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, plus extra for garnish
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Pernod
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 6 tablespoons good olive oil
- 1/2 cup panko
- 6 tablespoons dry white wine
- 2 pound fresh bay scallops
- Lemon, for garnish
DirectionsWatch how to make this recipe.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place 6 (6-inch round) gratin dishes on a sheet pan.
To make the topping, place the butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (you can also use a hand mixer). With the mixer on low speed, add the garlic, shallot, prosciutto, parsley, lemon juice, Pernod, salt, and pepper and mix until combined. With the mixer still on low, add the olive oil slowly as though making mayonnaise, until combined. Fold the panko in with a rubber spatula and set aside.
Preheat the broiler, if it's separate from your oven.
Place 1 tablespoon of the wine in the bottom of each gratin dish. With a small sharp knife, remove the white muscle and membrane from the side of each scallop and discard. Pat the scallops dry with paper towels and distribute them among the 3 dishes. Spoon the garlic butter evenly over the top of the scallops. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the topping is golden and sizzling and the scallops are barely done. If you want the top crustier, place the dishes under the broiler for 2 minutes, until browned. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkling of chopped parsley and serve immediately with crusty French bread.

Mosh pit rockers coming to velvet-roped venue
By RICK GERSHMAN
Published May 11, 2007
No one's going to mistake most of today's hard rock bands for churchgoing folk.
There are exceptions, such as the hairy, heavily tattooed members of the Christian rock band P.O.D.
But for every P.O.D., there's another 500 rock bands who spend most of their Sundays sleeping off their Saturdays.
At least Satanism isn't a big shtick in rock anymore.
Sure, these 21st-century bands might look devilish, as they're covered head to toe with tattoos and piercings. But these days, so are most college sophomores. And most of those young ladies are quite sweet.
Tonight, Tampa welcomes the band Godsmack, which took its name from a 1992 tune actually God Smack by the grunge band Alice in Chains.
It's a lilting little ditty about the throes of heroin addiction (the "smack" of the title), sung by vocalist Layne Staley, who later overdosed on heroin and cocaine.
For what it's worth, God-smack also has a popular song titled Bad Religion, which is taken from a revered punk band. So you know what you're getting into.
But do Godsmack fans know what they're getting into?
The group plays super-heavy rock, the kind of music that makes listeners want to roam around and smush together and even mosh.
They can't do any of that tonight, because Godsmack is playing the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center's Carol Morsani Hall.
(Seriously, there hasn't been a more out-of-place performer on that stage since, um, me.)
You can't mosh there. You can't crowd around the stage. At best, you'll be allowed to stand in front of your assigned seats and dance in place.
Sure seems like an odd fit, I told David Jenkins, who doubles as a spokesman for the center when he's not busy running Jobsite Theater.
"I would say Godsmack's probably the hardest rocking show we've had here, " Jenkins said. "It's definitely a different place to have a hard rock show."
He acknowledged that "there likely are some fans that would be turned off" by the constraints of TBPAC. "But I think they wouldn't buy tickets (for here) if they wanted to get loaded and mosh."
Jenkins said Godsmack - which hit big with Voodoo, Keep Away, Straight Out of Line and Awake - adds a critical diversity to the center's lineup.
Plus, older fans might prefer a more refined venue than Jannus Landing, State Theatre, etc.
The band's schedule has it playing a lot of theaters and performing arts centers on this tour. So it's not just Tampa. Godsmack must like going this route.
Still, this is going to be a very different crowd for TBPAC. Jenkins acknowledged: "I think some of our ushers will be a little nervous."
Free movies
It's Friday, so you could head to the multiplex to help Spider-Man 3 earn a billion jazillion dollars. But if you prefer something a little different - and free - don't forget about the Tampa Film Review.
The monthly screening of local, independent films starts at 8 p.m. at Centro Ybor's International Bazaar. Tonight there's a few horror-themed shorts by area filmmakers, plus a couple of different offerings from Canada. It's always an interesting time.
Rick Gershman can be reached at email@example.com or 226-3431. His Ill Literate posts are online at blogs.tampabay.com/juice/.
16 Wednesday
Bright Eyes: Since the age of 13, Conor Oberst has honed a musical voice that has taken him from his indie rock enclave onto the world's stage. In addition to himself, Bright Eyes consists of multi-instrumentalist/producer Mike Mogis, horn player and keyboardist Nate Walcott and a rotating lineup of collaborators drawn primarily from Omaha's indie music scene where Oberst grew up. 7:30 p.m.; Morsani Hall, Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, Tampa; $32.50. Call 229-7827.
Fast Facts:
Friday, 8 p.m. at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center, downtown Tampa. Tickets $41. Call 229-7827 .

Run Me to Death - Page 3
As we continued, my athletic disadvantages became apparent. Rod's VO2max and lactate threshold exceed to mine and he runs more than I do. We were averaging an eight-minute-per-mile pace, but, on this terrain and 3000-foot elevation, the effort resembled six-minute-per-mile pace. Can I run 20 miles at six-minute pace? No. Something had to give. Rod offered a few colorful analogies for what we were feeling.
"This is when my legs start to feel marinated," he said.
"My legs skipped marinating and plunged straight into the deep fryer," I replied.
"This run is kind of like an onion: the hills peel you away one layer at a time until you have nothing left." I only hoped that I was a bigger onion with more layers than I thought.
We began to ascend what Rod calls (cue slasher-movie music) ... The Scar. The Scar is an 800-foot near-vertical climb with no apparent trail. For balance, I grasped at rocks and tufts of dead grass. By now, so few oxygen molecules were flowing to my brain that I accepted my fate, much like the Titanic musicians who continued playing their instruments in the face of certain drowning. Don't think about the pain, don't think about Rod, just move forward, I said to myself.
As we ticked off the miles and 1000-foot climbs, blood, sweat and tears flowed from me while Rod remained impervious. Eventually I saw the car. Oh, sweet baby Jesus, we were done! At first I was relieved. Then I started to feel like a big deal. You might as well call me Survivorman.
"So, do you consider that a typical training run?" I said on the drive home.
"Yup. It doesn't get much better than that," Rod replied.
Rod suggested we stop for a bite to eat. While devouring handfuls of tortilla chips bathed in guacamole, sour cream and cheese chunks, I felt an unusual sense of peace. To be honest, running lately had become a chore. To achieve faster race times, running had become a means to an end, an obligation or ritual. I no longer enjoyed the experience of running.
But today I was like a beat-up, worn-out race horse that was suddenly released from the stable to run wild and free with a mustang. It may have been just another run for Rod, but it was a breakthrough for me. I ran with the best, finished on my feet and discovered that my onion does have many more layers to it. My running will never feel the same.

Queenie Eye is now available for listening (for us mere mortals who have yet to hear it).
http://www.directcurrentmusic.com/the-d ... e-eye.html
My verdict:
I can see why they picked this as the second single. Really one of the best Macca songs I've heard in YEARS, outranking anything on MAF, Chaos, etc. I'd rank it with "This One" as simply a fantastic Macca song/single.
Some of Paul's best lyrics (can't wait to read the lyric sheet)
Pretty interesting/bold production
Vocals sounds solid - obviously they did a lot of compression/tricks to hide any challenges Paul is having - and it works - you could imagine this on, say, Tug of War without much conflict - except that it would better all but a couple songs on there (Here Today, Wanderlust and Take It Away all would rank ahead to state how great this tune is!)

Quantum Probability
Anyway, I did some more digging on the web and found this course by Greg Kuperberg. The opening paragraphs almost take the words I wanted to say out of my mouth. In particular, despite the mystical mumbo-jumbo that is often written on the subject, the rules of quantum mechanics are "rigorous and clear" and "The precepts of quantum mechanics are neither a set of physical forces nor a geometrical model for physical objects. Rather, they are a variant, and ultimately a generalization, of classical probability theory." Most of all "...more mathematicians could and should learn quantum mechanics...". You don't even have to understand F=ma to get started with quantum mechanics and get to the point where you can really and truly get to grips, directly, with the so-called paradoxes of quantum mechanics such as the Bell Paradox. The strange thing is that you won't find words like this in most of the quantum mechanics textbooks. They throw you into physical situations that require finding tricky solutions to the Schrödinger equation while completely failing to give any insight into the real subject matter of quantum mechanics. Most QM books I know are really introductions to solving partial differential equations. (Remark to physicists: I bet you didn't know you could get the simultaneous eigenvalues for the energy and angular momentum operators for the hydrogen atom by a beautifully simple method that doesn't require even looking at a differential equation...) The best thing about the newly appearing field of quantum computing is that it's slowly forcing people to thing about quantum mechanics separately from the mechanics.
So even though I haven't read that course myself yet, I'm recommending that everyone read it :-) And some time I might get back to the even more elementary introduction I hope to put together.

Great link, thanks. Seems like I'm also not the only one to think it's weird that the almost trivial sequence of linear operations that goes into quantum teleportation took so long to discover. I don't think this is just an example of saying something is easy with hindsight - it really is easy. There are no new concepts required beyond the most elementary features of QM. Same goes for interactive-free measurement. I'm almost tempted to say that QM sits in some kind of collective blind-spot that makes us bad at reasoning about it.

In the english-speaking world the wave and hence differential equation-based approach to QM dominates, it is true, but in France the algebraic approach is dominant: see the textbook by Cohen-Tannoudji.

That's interesting. I didn't know the French studied QM differently.

Felt like sharing:
http://www.puerhshop.com/index.php?main ... ts_id=1704
Nothing like the high quality ones you guys all rave about, but it was on sale for $10 at Pu'er shop. Worst case scenario, I'm out less than an hour of pay :p
I had a 100g mini cake a few months ago. I knew this one would be big (3.57 times as massive, exactly) but that didn't translate over to just how much tea there is in this thing. It isn't tightly compressed, which is good, and rather uneven - stone pressed rather than hydraulic, I presume.
Hope to brew up some tonight or tomorrow!

My Great, Cheap, Animal Friendly Beauty List
NOTE: This list is a few years old. I'd love to update it because I'm sure some of these aren't available anymore. But keep in mind that Revlon, Jordana, Almay, Tresseme, E.L.F, and several other companies do not test on animals. I will soon add a makeup tutorial that may feature some different products, but I hope this list is helpful too.
A.k.a. The Poor Baby Bunny Loving Cosplayer's Guide to Eye Trickery
As a working girl cosplayer with a tight budget, I've put a considerable amount of time into hunting down high performance cosmetics with itty bitty price tags. As a bleeding heart animal hugging liberal, I've put a considerable amount of time into making sure these cosmetics were cruelty free. Here's a list of the cheapest, kindest, most face-tastic products out there! I apologize ahead of time for the bad puns.
1. Jordana Oil Free Liquid Foundation, $1-$2. Doubt me if you will, but that same dollar store staple you pass by every now and again serves up the (pores down) most beautiful foundation I've ever tried. This is one of the only products that doesn't exacerbate my skin's dryness, offers great coverage and comes in a super light and natural looking shade to match my ghostly skin. It's the perfect consistency and has good staying power. I switched to this foundation a few years ago and have never looked back! So hit up at that 99 Cent Thunder, if you don't already. Who am I kidding-- what would we do without dollar stores?
2. Wet 'n Wild MegaLength Mascara, $3. What's this? A good mascara for three dollars? Now that's a deal you can't bat an eye at. Rich black color, holds a decent curl, and doesn't clump too much. Admittedly I use the brush from the Boots No. 7 mascara to apply this, but the formula is a good go-to when money is tight. The only drawback: after a few months I find the mascara flakes more at the end of the day. But it's three bucks, so who cares. Which brings us to
3. Boots no. 7 Lengthening Mascara, $7. DAT BRUSH. I'm telling you, I've never found a better mascara wand in my life. IN MY LIFE. I CAN NEVER BE WITHOUT IT. AHHHHHH!
4. Ben Nye Neutral Set Colorless Face Powder, $5. I have a difficult time finding a face powder that doesn't darken my skin tone or make it look cakey, with those big, defined pores that all women crave (yuck). Ben Nye does what few others can-- takes away shine, while staying as invisible as the chances of the Green Lantern 2 being released. The bottle may not look glamorous, and you have to shake out the powder like parmesan cheese, but you get enough product to take you a year or more. The staying power could be better, but you can reapply without looking like a bag of flour.
5. Salon Perfect or Modlash Eyelashes, number 53, $3. Approximately 86% of my con day beauty can be attributed to these lashes, which are glam without being distractingly fake. They make a huge difference in pictures and most people assume they're my own. Which they totally are! Until I throw them away.
6. Jane Pure Mineral Blush in Rose Silk. This is the blush I wore for Jean Grey. So much staying power, so wonderfully skin brightening. However, I got it on clearance for $2 and haven't been able to find it since. What a shame
7. Ben Nye Contour Powder #1, $7. Ahhh, my best kept secret. Dare I reveal it? This is my secret weapon to subtly make my face resemble a certain character's. For example, when cosplaying Laurie (Silk Spectre II) I used this to "shorten" my chin and "round" my face. Think of this a shadow you can move across your face to slightly shorten, narrow, widen, soften or sharpen it. The color looks natural and is surprisingly hard to spot in person. This should be in every cosplayer's makeup bag. Banish double chins back to the netherworld where they belong! Unfortunately it's getting a bit hard to track down, but I bought one of these four years ago and it's still going strong!
8. Revlon or Fabulash Liquid Liner Pen, $3-$9. I LOVED the Fabulash version of this liquid liner marker. It made a dark, strong, perfect line above my lashes, lasted forever and was easy to use. It was one of the best eyeliners I had ever purchased, and for such a bargain. However, I think they've changed the formulation recently and the quality suffered
so I instead point you instead to the pricier, though high quality Revlon version. That last thing you want to worry about in a hot costume, in front of flashing cameras, is your eyeliner smearing!
9. Eyeshadows: Time and time again I find that Ulta brand eyeshadows are my favorite. It's hard to point to one specific shade since I usually use my giant Christmas kits for several years. If you're looking for a bargain and don't mind finding an Ulta, I'd suggest any of their shades.
10. Jordana Retractable Lipliner in Rose or Natural, $1-2. Gotta admire Jordana's commitment to making animal-friendly, affordable products that don't suck. I use this to anchor down my lip gloss and plump up my top lip. Doesn't budge easily no dry out my lips, and appears natural in photos. Shhh, don't tell anyone.
11. E.L.F. Luscious Liquid Lipstick in Baby Lips, $1. I was so excited when this product did what it promised: gave me baby lips. Before you get too creeped out, know that I mean the soft, hydrated, natural looking lips you see children sportin'. I can't stand an overdone mouth and hate that "lipstick" look. Really, while you're in the Elf section, why not just buy everything they make? Because their lip products are kickin' some ass for only one dollar!
Well, that's it for now. I've been wanting to write this for a while so I hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for reading, and enjoy the costumes.

War of the Worlds
On October 30, 1938, the popular Mercury Theater broadcast a radio play directed by Orson Welles, entitled "Invasion from Mars." This adaptation of H.G.Wells' novel "War of the Worlds" dramatized a surprise attack on a town in New Jersey. Many took the radio play to be real -- causing widespread panic. Not everyone took to the streets however, and many, like the writer of this letter, felt that others were overreacting. Text adapted from "The War of the Words: Letters to the FCC Regarding Orson Welles's 1938 Broadcast" in the May/June 2002 National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) publication Social Education.

Topic: How to reroute index.html to rails???
I setup a server on passenger, with my routes sending the base of the url to a controller-action. This works fine when I run the webrick server on my local machine, but in production, nginx is going straight into the public folder and searching for the index, where is not to be found.
How do I get passenger to pay attention to my routes?

Hey Anthem Fans:
I just had the Anthem SL installed in my Martin D28 and am extremely pleased with the sound it produces. I am looking for suggestions on a combo amp that mates with the Anthem in an especially good way. I have a large mixer and powered JBL speaker which is a lot to haul around. I play with a singer and it would be nice to have something loud enough for small clubs that we could both go through and pipe to the PA.

On Sunday, May 1, President Barack Obama addressed the nation and said, "Tonight, I can report to the American people and to the world that the United States has conducted an operation that killed Osama bin Laden, the leader of al Qaeda, and a terrorist who's responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent men, women, and children."
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton underscored the President's message and said, "[T]his a day, not only for Americans, but also for people all over the world who look to a more peaceful and secure future -- yes, with continued vigilance, but more so with growing hope and renewed faith in what is possible."
From May 4 to 6, Secretary Clinton traveled to Italy to participate in a meeting of the Libya Contact Group and address food security at the UN Agencies in Rome. Speaking before the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Secretary Clinton highlighted the U.S. commitment to fighting hunger, malnutrition, and food insecurity around the world. Secretary Clinton said, "Let's move relentlessly ahead in advancing food security not only for more of the world's people, but a goal of all of the world's people."
The Secretary also met with Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini in Rome, where they discussed the situations in Libya and Syria, as well as our efforts in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Meanwhile, Ambassador Mark Grossman, U.S. Special Representative to Afghanistan and Pakistan, traveled to Afghanistan and Pakistan. In Afghanistan, Ambassador Grossman met with senior Afghan government officials, parliamentarians, and representatives from civil society and the local media. In Pakistan, he joined Pakistan's Foreign Secretary Salman Bashir, Afghanistan's Deputy Foreign Minister Jaweed Ludin, and other officials for a trilateral meeting in Islamabad.
Ambassador Eric Goosby provided updates on our collaboration to further our vision of partnership, efficiency, and innovation for sustained impact through PEPFAR at the annual meeting in Johannesburg, South Africa. The meeting focused on identifying opportunities to build on the impressive achievements the program has made so far, and establishing a "continuum of response."
USAID's Deputy Administrator Donald Steinberg explored the hopes and challenges for south Sudan, while Under Secretary of State Judith McHale addressed new ways the United States can help support and strengthen our partnership with the next generation of African leaders. U.S. Ambassador to Zimbabwe Charles Ray described how the Harare International Festival of the Arts (HFA) allowed us to "reach out to hundreds of young people who, despite their economically-deprived circumstances, still represent Zimbabwe's future."
Assistant Secretary Ann Stock highlighted a Professional Fellows Program that promotes strong relationships between Americans and global partners, while our dedicated Foreign Service Liaison Officer Tom Weinz highlighted how Pacific Partnership 2011 is fostering networks to strengthen civil society.
In Dubai, Donna Hopkins, the Coordinator for Counter-Piracy and Maritime Security, attended a conference to strengthen the counter-piracy partnership between governments and industry. In other economic news, Under Secretary of State Robert Hormats brought to our attention the importance of competitive neutrality to ensure a sound basis for global competition. Sara Mangiaracina, a Conflict Prevention Officer, discussed a U.S. Embassy Asuncion program dedicated to preventing conflict by bolstering economic security in the at-risk northern region of Paraguay.
In Washington, Secretary Clinton addressed the recent violence in Syria. She said, "I am deeply troubled that the Syrian Government chooses to continue to use force and intimidation against the Syrian people. The United States condemns in the strongest terms the Syrian Government's actions over the past five weeks and calls on it to immediately cease the killing, arrest, and harassment of protestors, activists, and journalists."
Journalists from around the world gathered in Washington to commemorate World Press Freedom Day on May 3. Secretary Clinton congratulated UNESCO/Guillermo Cano World Press Freedom Laureate Ahmad Zeidabadi and honored journalists. She said, "Today, we remember that journalism is a calling of everyday heroes. We must continue to stand up for those who speak out in perilous circumstances as they pursue, record, and report the truth."
Secretary Clinton also held a bilateral meeting with Australian Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd at the Department of State in Washington. The Secretary and Foreign Minister Rudd discussed how our two countries are fostering security through the Australia-U.S. Ministerial, working together on fighting al-Qaeda and its allies, and ending violence against women and girls.
The Secretary highlighted two unique partnerships that seek to improve the lives of women and girls around the world. First, Secretary Clinton unveiled the Mobile Alliance for Maternal Action, a public-private partnership to improve maternal and child health. This partnership harnesses the power of technology to improve the health of women and newborns by reaching them with quality health information.
Second, the Secretary spoke with actress Julia Roberts about Ms. Robert's new role as Global Ambassador for the Alliance for Clean Cookstoves. Ms. Roberts said, "Nearly 2 million people around the world -- mostly women and children -- die each year from an activity that many of us take for granted: cooking for our families…I am proud to stand with Secretary Clinton to work to reduce the senseless and preventable deaths from unsafe cooking conditions in the developing world and I look forward to contributing to the important work of the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves."Ms. Roberts, alongside Secretary Clinton, the United Nations Foundation, and other Alliance partners, will support the Alliance's goal of 100 million homes' adopting clean and efficient cookstoves and fuels by 2020. These efforts seem particularly relevant today as we celebrate Mother's Day in the United States, and I'd like to take a moment to thank my own mother for all she has done for me.
I'd also like to thank all of our readers for their feedback and comments from this last week, and I encourage all of you to join us online for the third joint meeting of the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue. Secretary Clinton and Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner will be joined by Chinese Co-Chairs, Vice Premier Wang Qishan and State Councilor Dai Bingguo, in Washington, D.C., May 9-10. You can watch the livestream of the opening remarks Monday, May 9 at 9:15 a.m. (EDT), here on DipNote and www.state.gov.
We look forward to hearing from you in the week ahead.

Folks often talk of "unintended concequences" in 20/20 hindsight, so I suppose it's probably worthy of mention in a "week in review" that thanks to the demise of bin laden, Donald Trump hasn't got media airtime all week...
Ain't life grand?
Silenced two fools with one go at it.
I forgot to mention that the donald issued a stuffed-shirt-foreign-policy tirade that was worthy of Hugo Chavez, and made just about as much sense the other day on C-span, but where ego's dare I cannot begin to speculate as they are often proven self-fulfilling accidents waiting to happen.
And as regards John's question all I can say is if it don't seem a peaceful, harmonious humanity is lookin' likely, blame it on Spasticus Autisticus, the alter ego within the human condition's duality.

The biggest fool is our US Congress for giving the country of Pakistan 20 Billion US dollars and they double crossed our intelligence community. I keep hearing there are more billions Congress wants to give Pakistan, maybe Congress should stop sending them money when Pakistan cannot be upfront about intelligence, to have Osama bin laden for years on its soil and deny his location. Who is the true Fool them or us for passing bills allowing them to breed more terrorists. Cutoff the aid to Pakistan.
Eric in New Mexico writes:
@ Donald,
Knowing that bin laden was a master manipulator who would play a situation for all it's worth, and knowing one of his main goals was to drive a wedge between the US and Pakistan to end cooperation and joint military actions on al-quaida and the taliban; it is important to factor in the reality that bin laden made a concious choice to be where he was found. Because reportedly he had no escape plan, thus one must conclude he was content to be eventually discovered and if martyred, he'd have his last hurrah by pitting Pakistan and the US against each other over him.
I agree with you in part that all this reflects really badly on the Pak gov. and ISI, but I don't believe as a government they had a clue where he was. However it is probable that individuals acting outside the knowledge of their government may have played a part in hiding him out there in order to discredit the current civilian led government of Pakistan if he was discovered.
It is unfortunate that the Pakistani Parliment and leadership is reacting badly and adding to folk's mistrust here.
When al-quaida and the taliban are obviously violating Pak soveregnity every day of the week they continue to have the ability to blow people up as they did the other day.
I think the President should make it a point to say to the Pakistani gov. "Look here, we did what we did to rid your nation of a terrorist who was leading a terrorist org. that was violating your sovereignity, and that action was taken not just to protect our own sovereignity from terrorist intent, but your's as well, even though we had to "violate" your sovereignity to do so."
Or words to that effect.
It's important that this gov. doesn't simply respond in knee-jerk response to what I believe to be an intentional plan by bin laden as his "going away party" for the international community if it ever came to that.
I'm not saying he wanted to be found, simply that he placed himself in exactly the right place to do as much political damage as possible if he was.
If he could convince the US that Pakistan was aiding and abbeting him, that would serve the interests of al-quaida and the taliban as we cut off funding and mistrust runs rampant in both governments.
That's my take on all this, and I trust that eventually the truth will out, and cooler heads will prevail.
Best regards,

@ Eric in New Mexico
Hey Eric,
I can agree with some of your points, but when Pakistan purchases new fighters from China and ofcourse takes the United States hand out of over 20 billion dollars, while they manufacture and produce more terrorist that end up fighting our forces in Afghanistan, something is wrong with this picture. The Pakistan Government knew all too well the location of Osama bin laden. If they didn't know, then they were living under a rock. The point is Pakistan released information about an agent living in Pakistan so quickly but for all those years, they forgot to mention the worlds mastermind terrorist was living in a fortress compound that nobody noticed? I find it hard to believe. They used the United States, took our money and most likely bought weapons and trained the Taliban. Just like when they attacked India. The United States should of went with India to start with, instead your dealing with a crooked Government of Pakistan who has been greedy. We have said it all along. Pakistan is a breeding ground for terrorists. I am waiting to see if those new Chinese fighters they purchase, get sights on our drones or aircraft in the area. This would be quite interesting to see what happens.
Eric in New Mexico writes:
@ Donald,
Well, since there is no evidence the Pak gov. knew where he was according to Sec. Gates and Sec. Clinton, and Gates has "seen some evidence that they didn't" ( see latest DOD briefing with Mullen and Gates on C-span) one has to ask what kind of rock were they living under?
The blindness of national pride being the most likely cause of their "failure of imagination" that prevented them from looking in their own backyard, being one rock they haven't yet crawled out from underneath of yet.
But I detect movement.
Ahh so, when India goes with the Russian bid for fighter aircraft rather than the US offer, this then becomes a matter of economics? Or percieved as some kind of alliance against us?
If you picked the former you would be correct, and since the US isn't going to sell F-16's to Pakistan, they went with an inferior substitute to counter India's purchase in a really dysafunctional parody of the old cold-war mentality that the US and Russia are still struggling to overcome.
Both know they cannot win a nuclear war with the other nor even survive a limited exchange given the nuclear power plants growin like daisies in both countries, so why do they build more at great fiscal expense, and at the expense of their people?
Yeah Donald, you hit the nail on the head bro...they're both living under a rock prepping to live in the Stone Age.
Go figure.
Logic has nothing to do with any of this.
Just ask Jim Jones the former national security advisor, who pretty well explained that in logical terms to the Senate Foreign Relations committee the other day.
And now you know why for the last ten years I've been writing a book called "the Cure for Political Stupidity, and/or how Not to go to war with America"
Curious minds have a "need to know"...,
along with ethical infants. But I don't expect the latter to grasp the cure, let alone cure themselves of terminal stupidity.
I can only try and point them in the right direction at the expense of their pride...(chuckle).
Looks like I have a lot of help doing just that, officially.

City responds to road construction congestion
The City of Minot has adjusted signals and intends to alter a detour to ease temporary traffic congestion on 16th Street Southwest.
Underground work and roadway repairs at the 16th Street underpass this week have limited traffic to one lane in each direction, causing vehicles to back up considerably. City traffic engineer Stephanie Frizzo said southbound traffic Tuesday afternoon was found to have backed up from the Burdick Expressway intersection to Second Avenue near Arrowhead Shopping Center.
To rectify the situation, the city has extended the green time of the signal at Burdick for north and south traffic on 16th Street. Frizzo said additional signal adjustments will be made if excessive congestion remains a concern.
The city also has directed contractors on the Sixth Street Underpass project to relocate an existing detour that takes traffic south on 16th Street to make a left onto Burdick. With 16th Street down to one lane, motorists in the southbound lane waiting to turn left have been severely backing up traffic behind them.
The existing work on the east side of 16th Street is to finish this week. Work then will shift to the west side of the street, and traffic will continue with one lane in each direction for the next two weeks, Frizzo said.
The 16th Street construction is part of a larger, citywide repair project that has included work on traffic signals, street lighting and roads this year.
The work on 16th Street comes at a time when other city arterial streets also are undergoing construction that needs to get done before cold weather arrives.
In addition to detours on Sixth Street due to underpass work, an area of Third Street in downtown Minot, just south of the bridge, has been getting new concrete. Traffic is reduced to one lane serving northbound vehicles. Southbound traffic has been detoured. Frizzo said the project is using a concrete that sets up fast, so the road should be open again on Friday.
Repaving also continues on the U.S. Highway 83 Bypass and on U.S. Highway 2 through Minot. The North Dakota Department of Transportation's online travel report indicates no traffic delays except on Highway 2 ramps when construction reaches those points. However, motorists will run into areas of single-lane traffic in each direction and reduced speeds. Both projects are to be completed by mid-October.

Get Organized! Ways to Rethink Your Restaurant ShelvingWednesday, June 18th, 2014
Here at Short Order, we're all about making life in the kitchen easier. We know what kinds of equipment it takes to keep a restaurant kitchen running smoothly… and we don't want to be shelve-ish about sharing our tips. Read on and see for your-shelf how you can stay organized with the right carts and shelving.
Types of Shelving
- Dunnage racks are best for keeping heavy items off the floor. They come in a variety of sizes from brands like Lakeside, Metro, and New Age.
- Dry storage shelving kits are a versatile way to organize anything from pans to pickle jars. Strong, adjustable, and available in a variety of sizes, dry storage shelving is a good catch-all for your equipment and supplies.
- Keg racks are suitable for… what else? Kegs. Though you can likely get away with putting your kegs on another type of shelving, keg racks are specifically made to support the weight and shape of kegs.
- Display shelving is a great way to put your grab-and-go products front and center. Get those dry goods out from the storage room or behind the counter and place them where customers can see them.
- Security carts are useful for items in your kitchen that need extra protection. An enclosed security cart is best for products like alcohol, and is especially useful for caterers who tend to work off-site and need a safe way to transport goods. Security carts are available as stationary units are mobile units.

Join us for a unique, one-on-one experience "where heart meets horse." You will connect, spirit to spirit, with these amazing American Wild Horses, learn to speak their language and create a willing relationship. These horses, creatures of the natural world, will carry you beyond words and unbridle you to find peace, balance and harmony. A fun and transforming experience using American Wild Horses to transform fear into curiosity, resistance into cooperation, and tolerance into willingness. Most participants have little or no experience with horses, and learn to replace fear, stress, anxiety and emotional trauma with peace, strength and emotional balance.
Mary Lee Brighton and Marcia Thayne have created this dynamic and effective program using wild mustangs as teachers. The program incorporates 35 years of Mary's professional training skills and Marcia's experience in education into a powerful Equine Experiential Training which is very successful in Utah. Mary Lee chose wild mustangs rather than domesticated horses because of their intelligence, awareness, and physical capabilities that have allowed them to survive over the years.

6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait
Make bass think twice before heading into shallow water with the 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait. Built with a flat-sided profile and a fast-rolling action, the 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait generates a tremendous amount of flash and vibration when it's ripped through grass, bumped off of shallow cover, or worked through open water.
The body of the 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait is also designed to be slightly larger than most squarebills to help it target bigger fish in tougher conditions. For even more attraction, the 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait features incredible 3D detailing and comes equipped with a faint, almost-silent rattle. Finished with sticky-sharp VMC black nickel treble hooks as well, the 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X Crankbait hits bass with an abundance of flash that "flat" out gets bit.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Love this crank! It does "flat" catch fish of all species! My only gripe is the the hooks. They are decent but I definitely recommend switching out to some short shank hooks. The hooks they come with tend to get snagged easily and often.
From: Luke: Salisbury, NC 2/10/16
Comments: This is my go to shallow diver. I love the action and one knocker is perfect for it. i always catch fish on this lure. it's a must have. get one they swim better than most squire bills. they have more of a lifelike wobble unlike other ones.
From: Anthony: Lompoc, CA 10/23/14
Comments: Whenever I am fishing, 75% of the time it is with a crankbait. I am always looking for the next "favorite" to add to my very select go to arsenal, and this one has made it. This is a great bait for spring bass in southern lakes that have seen them all. This is the best new secret in crankbaits since the silent square bill (long before KVD made it popular).
From: Michael: Cincinnati, OH 4/13/14
Comments: These are outstanding baits. I don't care where you live, when it gets into late spring and the bass have seen lipless cranks for a couple months you can go into pressured areas and absolutely kill them with these. These baits have a very nice, tight wiggle and a VERY slow rise that invokes aggressive strikes. Throw them anywhere you would throw a trap style bait on 12lb flouro and hang on. These also have a subtle one knocker type rattle.
From: Hydrilla: Lake Seminole, FL 3/25/14
Comments: Just came from a fishing trip to El Salto Lake Mexico and let me tell you that the most productive crankbait was the Crush 75X in chrome shiner color. I will be ordering some in Chrome Treuse Shad color to match the hatch and maybe some Blue Treuse Shad or Wild Lava Craw for low light conditions. You'll love this cranks!!!
From: Hans: Mexico
Comments: This could be the best crank in the entire 6th sense line. No doubt it's my favorite flat-side on the market. Extremely subtle, great color schemes, perfect diving depth...get one and check it out!
From: Ben: NE
Comments: Love these crank's!! Bought a few of the prototype's off E-bay.Love the vibration they put out,and run very true right out of the package.Great crankbait's!!!!!!
From: John: Virginia Beach,VA
Comments: Sick CRANK! I've been using these all Summer behind guys throwing traditional Squarebills and picking off fish they could not get to react to their offerings. Flat baits are NOT just for cold water.

Checking In with Geoff Roes in Juneau - Page 4
How have you been able to moderate the pressure that can come with being a champion and with the expectations about your running?
In my life in general, I've never been one to do things because I'm supposed to. I've never really wanted to have a career type of job, so I've been completely happy to work odd jobs and do whatever I want to be doing at that time. People have always thought, "Well, eventually you must want to settle down and get a career," and I'm like, no, I'm settled down and as content as I can be. In terms of running, I've never felt I needed or wanted to necessarily fit this mold of what it should be like to be a top-level runner and to have to continue doing it in a really focused and serious way.
Where do you see yourself a decade from now when you're in your mid-40s?
(Laughs) I have no idea. Until this point in my life I've tended to be really involved in something for a given period of time, sometimes numerous things, and then sometimes I end up not even by design completely stopping or quitting them almost cold turkey. I'm not certain that could happen with my running, but I'm absolutely open to the possibility that it could. I might be running as much 10 years from now, or I might not have run a step in five years; I just don't know. I don't ever really think about it, actually.

I do have a 2nd bar I can use to support the back end and do away with the back wall. Just curious as to why you think that would work better than having the back enclosed. I assume the enclosed back could trap and reflect heat. By having the back enclosed and sides pushed out a bit, I'm envisioning heat rising and then travelling towards the front of the stone and exiting at the front. With the back open heat would escape in front and back. Would that be better?
First one was loaded with a dome temp of 650F, and a stone temp of 730 ish?
Convection, in this equation is about rising hot air. You want to get as much hot air contacting the ceiling as possible. Those poorly conductive, thermally massive bricks are gumming up the works. Whatever you don't need for supporting the ceiling, get rid of. In fact, if you can get 1" wide kiln stands and completely remove the bricks from the equation, you'd be better off.
First I would burn wood chunks in place of charcoal, I think the open flame would really help the top stone. Secondly I would set it up almost like a French bread oven with the fire box on the bottom and forcing the open flame into the "oven" and then out.
This is the type of oven I was reffering to.
looking good tran! i am still experimenting with mine...getting closer, but I still have a ways to go...this pizza making business on the Primo is much, much harder then producing competition quality 'cue, let me tell ya1
Tran et alOK, I have never even seen one of these much less cooked on one, but being intrigued, checked out their website. So the lightbulb that went off may not apply, but here is what popped into my head.Why not replace your upper stone with an additional heat source? You already have multiple shelving arrangements figured out. So some type of pan/container full of screaming hot lump charcoal 2 1/2 inches above the pie could work and might actually get the temp above the pie hotter than the stone below. Sounds too simple so that means there are prob a few dozen problems to work out. But if anyone can figure this out it is you Dr Tran.Maybe a hairbrained idea but the first one I have come up with that might solve the "all the heat comes from below" dilema.

Tupper Lake village board set to approve budget
TUPPER LAKE – The village board is expected to approve its budget this afternoon after cutting more off of an already conservative spending plan.
The budget will stay well under the state-imposed tax cap, said village Clerk Mary Casagrain. She said the cap would let the village board raise the tax levy to $1,858,811 without an override hearing and vote, but the board will only increase it to $1,775,789.
That's down $12,746 from the levy originally proposed after the board spent several workshops hacking away at the budget.
The tax rate would decrease by 21.7 cents per $1,000 in assessed property value, or 1.6 percent, to $12.97 per $1,000 in assessed property value.
Total spending in the budget would decrease by $38,247, or 2.1 percent, over the current year.
Casagrain said the board was able to add $3,000 in revenue because of additional money the state is giving to municipalities from the Consolidated Local Street and Highway Improvement Program.
The board also took out a $5,740 piece of highway equipment. The Department of Public Works planned the purchase for the next budget year, but it will instead buy it with money available in the current year's budget, Casagrain said.
The board will consider Trustee Rick Donah's request to start an equipment replacement fund for the fire department. Donah asked Casagrain to set aside $10,000 to put toward fire department equipment replacements. The department approached the village board in recent months asking for a new fire truck.
The budget includes $21,000 for the village to pave Amell Lane, a local road developed by town Supervisor Roger Amell and his father but never paved by them. Amell has been trying to get the village to take over the road and pave it for years.
The board discussed the controversial project several times throughout the budget process, and village Mayor Paul Maroun said he wants a decision on the project at the board's regular May meeting. It is not on the agenda for today's meeting.
Casagrain said if the board decides not to use the money for paving Amell Lane, there are plenty of other road projects that need to be done.
"There's certainly no shortage of streets we can apply it to," Casagrain said.
The village board will meet to consider the budget at 4 p.m. today at the village offices at 53 Park St.

I don't like how the tights look.
But I don't like how elbow sleeves, knee braces, or broken nose masks look, either.
Do I object to players wearing them? The thought had literally never crossed my mind. "Man, Rip Hamilton looks bad in than mask, it ought to be outlawed!" Did you EVER think that? Ever? Viking horns, sure: they should be outlawed. Razor blades on the shoes? Very rude. Rocket skates, hang gliders, plate mail ... there are limits. But braces and masks? No.
Tights appear to serve a functional physical purpose. They look dumb, but so what? Banning them is a foolish, stupid decision.

Customer Reviews:
Rated 4.5 out of 5�by 200 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5�by DDCINWYO Changed classic wrap 130 I have been using Harbinger Classic Wrap 130 for 8-10 years.. I loved them! Hey would last over a year. I lift 5-6 day a week. They were a great glove. My current 130's were coming apart, it was time for new ones..... I could not fine them any where, not even Amazon. Went to Harbinger website.... They show they have them but have totally redesigned them. The back of the hand is no longer leather but mesh. So I started to look for alternatives. The Pro wrap is one of the alternative. It is very close to the 130. The palm and fingers are the same. The back, the leather does not go down as far as the 130's. The Pro has a canvas wrist wrap where the 130 had leather. Overall, very similar. My rating of 3 stars is based on my comparison to the 130's I had been completely satisfied with. Maybe after getting "used" to them I might raise to a 4. But, there does not seem to be many heavy duty full leather lifting gloves out there.. July 20, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by dpc1122 Fantastic Product! As a wheelchair bound individual, I work out 5 days a week to help make up for the lack of cardio I would get if I still get about on my own. I've found these gloves, especially with the wrist wrap/support to be superior to any other I've tried to date. They also last much longer through the wear & tear I put on them not only working out, but moving/maneuvering my wheelchair as well. I'd highly recommend them to anyone for looking for a serious weightlifting regimen. July 18, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by ZX14R Harbinger Pro WristWrap Gloves Well made, mostly good fit, comfortable. Wrist strap is incorrectly attached, tries to wrap around hand instead of wrist, then bunches up material when pulled in correct direction. Not designed by a lifter, but fine for normal usage. June 11, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5�by Bob26 Average In a fair comparison with other brands that I have used over the years, it helps support my wrists. I haven't used other brands in the past five years due to availability. April 20, 2016

This guy was tempting fate, but a sad story nonetheless ...
http://www.forbes.com/business/healthca ... 91321.html
Steve Irwin, the hugely popular Australian television personality and conservationist known as the "Crocodile Hunter," was killed Monday by a stingray while filming off the Great Barrier Reef. He was 44.
Irwin was at Batt Reef, off the remote coast of northeastern Queensland state, shooting a segment for a series called "Ocean's Deadliest" when he swam too close to one of the animals, which have a poisonous bard on their tails, his friend and colleague John Stainton said.
"He came on top of the stingray and the stingray's barb went up and into his chest and put a hole into his heart," said Stainton, who was on board Irwin's boat at the time.
Crew members aboard the boat, Croc One, called emergency services in the nearest city, Cairns, and administered CPR as they rushed the boat to nearby Low Isle to meet a rescue helicopter. Medical staff pronounced Irwin dead when they arrived a short time later, Stainton said.
Irwin was famous for his enthusiasm for wildlife and his catchword "Crikey!" in his television program "Crocodile Hunter." First broadcast in Australia in 1992, the program was picked up by the Discovery network, catapulting Irwin to international celebrity.

Real estate progress seen on U.S. 20
GALVA – Bulldozers are scheduled to begin scraping away at the ground in Woodbury County next year to prepare the way for another four-lane section of U.S. Highway 20, according to an Iowa Department of Transportation official.
However, efforts to get more money for the highway job have been stymied in the state Capitol, state Sen. Bill Anderson, R-Pierson, said Friday.
Members of the U.S 20 Corridor Association received that mixed assessment of the progress on efforts to make the route four lanes wide all across the state when they met Friday at The Meeting Place in Galva.
U.S. Highway 20 extends across northern Iowa between Dubuque and Sioux City. After decades of work, just 44 miles between Early in Sac County and Moville remain to be widened.
The next piece scheduled to be widened is between Moville and Correctionville, which is also in Woodbury County.
Dakin Schultz, a planner for the DOT, said agreements for buying 21 parcels of land have been signed as of May 1. He said those agreements represent 55 percent of the needed land. He added that he expects the land purchases will be completed this year.
Schultz said earthmoving for the new westbound lanes will start next year and be completed in 2015. Those lanes will be paved in 2016.
Earthmoving for the new eastbound lanes is scheduled to start in 2017, according to Schultz. The paving will done in 2018.
No work on the section between Correctionville and Early is scheduled yet.
Completing the four-lane route is estimated to cost $375 million. Attempts to make more money available to finish the job have been unsuccessful, Anderson told the association members.
Although there has been talk about raising the state's gasoline tax since the Legislature convened in January, Anderson said the chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee, Sen. Joe Bolkcom, D-Iowa City, ruled out such an increase very early in the session.
"I don't know that we can pass an increase in the gas tax at this time,"Anderson said.
The state's 21 cents-per-gallon gasoline tax has remained unchanged since 1989.
Anderson said he introduced an amendment that would commit $25 million from the Reinvest in Iowa Infrastructure Fund to the highway project, State Sen. Daryl Beall, D-Fort Dodge, joined Anderson in voting for the measure, but it was defeated.
The Reinvest in Iowa Infrastructure Fund contains the state's share of gambling revenue. The money can only be spent on roads, bridges, buildings and other public facilities.
Anderson said he also unsuccessfully introduced an amendment to a catchall measure called the standings bill which would take $100 million of the state budget surplus and spend it on immediate needs identified by the DOT.
In an unrelated matter, Shirley Phillips, the association president, reported that a new U.S. 20 tourism initiative is starting. It will include brochures, a website and a Facebook page featuring interesting things to see and do along the highway.
"I think that will draw some additional travel interest to Highway 20," she said.
