To adapt a particular look, a great number of men and women resort to tanning under the sun or through synthetic options. Increasingly more men and women are getting under way to appreciate the appeal of tanned skin over the pearly white one. After all, bronze complexions can appear fairly attractive, especially if rendered in the right shades.
The sun makes life on this planet possible, but extreme exposure to its ultraviolet radiations can be unsafe to the skin. So while people can't live without the sun, they can also get sick and age more speedily because of it. As a matter of fact, many surveys have validated the relationship between extreme sun exposure and the premature presence of age spots and wrinkles-- issues that demand proficient sun damage treatment.
One of the detrimental effects of extreme exposure to the sun is the turning up of dark spots, which are generally associated with seniority. The good news is, there are a number of procedures offered that can revitalize damaged skin and revive its younger gleam. Skin peeling is one type of simple and non-invasive technique that can immediately lighten up the skin. This technique can also wipe out fine lines and repair damaged skin cells, thereby dealing with those brown spots.
Another useful sun damage treatment worth taking into consideration is collagen injection. This natural protein substance offers skin its strength and elasticity. Regretfully, collagen lowers with age and constant sun exposure. Skin with badly reduced collagen levels starts to hang and form creases, which would consequently call for collagen replacement.
Collagen injections can alter the negative impacts of the sun and rejuvenate skin's healthy vibrancy. In the meantime, laser skin resurfacing delivers yet another solution for the treatment of sun damage. In essence, this technique vaporizes the water on the top layers of the skin, resulting to the development of new cell structures.
The sun is the life source for most living things, yet it is always wise to find ways to gain the sun's full rewards while circumventing its damaging effects. Cosmetic surgeons can help their patients ease the unfavorable effects of years of excessive sun exposure. For more details, visit ehow.com/how_6613743_skin-treatment-aging.html.

An adoption lawyer helps to place children with parents other than their birth parents. An adoption cuts off the birth parents' rights and responsibilities, and gives them to the adoptive parents. Once an adoption is final, the adopted child receives the same legal treatment as a biological child. Adoption is often an emotional time and an adoption lawyer can help you make the right decisions for the child.

Lightweight Peer Code Review
Peer code reviews can be one of the most effective ways to find bugs. However, developers will not accept a heavy process, and it's easy to waste time using poor methods. Jason Cohen describes how lightweight code review practices can succeed where more cumbersome, formal inspections fail. He shares the results from the largest case study of peer reviews ever conducted. You will gain new insights on how much time to spend in review, how much to code review in one session, and how author preparation practices can increase the efficiency of a review. Jason offers tips on the mechanics of lightweight code reviews and compares five common styles of review. He provides advice on how to build checklists and describes what metrics can actually tell us. Learn how to conduct practical, time-efficient code reviews while avoiding the most common mistakes.

Mr. Bernardi began coaching and conducting at the Canadian Opera Company, and it was there in 1959 that he encountered his future wife, mezzo-soprano Mona Kelly. Emulating the traditional, strict way he had been taught in Europe, the budding taskmaster admonished her for singing a wrong note during a sight-reading of Prokofiev.
Then, sorry that he had made her blush, he apologized to "this very pretty girl," as he called her, remembering the scene decades later in an interview with the CBC. She forgave him. Sharing rice pudding during rehearsal breaks led to romance and they were married in 1962.
While Mr. Bernardi was having some conducting success, he feared opportunities were limited in Canada. Just as the young couple were settling into their new home, he got a request to write a grant application for a student to study abroad, and suddenly realized that he wanted to go, too.
So, armed with a Canada Council grant, the newlyweds set out for England, where Mr. Bernardi's skills as a keyboardist and ability to sing opera in French landed him a job at the Sadler's Wells Opera Company (now the English National Opera).
His big break came thanks to musical director Colin Davis, who took ill and needed someone to fill in as conductor. Mr. Bernardi was such a success that he was tapped to launch a new production of Engelbert Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel, conducting 50 performances and making a recording that was a huge commercial success.
"They chose me?" he remembered thinking, as he recounted to the CBC. "It was a miracle."
Mr. Bernardi loved London, but once again Canada was calling him home.
It was 1968 and cultural visionary Hamilton Southam, with the backing of prime minister Lester Pearson, was keen to start the National Arts Centre, which was to include an orchestra. The only stipulation was that the new group not cannibalize any existing Canadian ensemble.
And so the courting of Mr. Bernardi began. Intrigued by the opportunity to build his own ensemble, he agreed to move his wife and infant daughter, Julia, back to Canada. He and Jean-Marie Beaudet, the new music director, set about casting a wide net for 40-some new recruits. The conductor also began developing an orchestral repertoire that would take him far beyond his comfort zone.
Mona Bernardi remembers the National Art Centre's opening night in 1969 with a performance by the National Ballet. "The men were in tails and the women were in ball gowns, everyone from the embassies was there and the prime minister," she said. "There was an excitement in the air. We were young and fresh, not jaded and knowledgeable."
Violinist Walter Prystawski remembers well the excitement. Recruited from Switzerland, where he had been living, he was the group's founding concertmaster.
"The orchestra was created out of the void," he said. "It was hard work – very demanding work – and there were often tensions. But the orchestra very quickly turned into an absolutely first-class instrument."
He described its sound – one that became distinctive on broadcasts throughout Canada – as one of remarkable clarity, precision and balance.
"We played together like on a knife's edge."
Mr. Bernardi pushed the players, and that level of intensity did not come without some unpleasant moments.
"Most of the time it was very pleasant working with him," Mr. Prystawski said. He said the Mozart operas were the most fun he's ever had in what has been a long career. "But if things started to go really badly, he was not someone who would put up with that lightly … he was a perfectionist."
Mrs. Bernardi, who knew a softer side of the conductor, was not so circumspect when describing his presence on the podium: "He scared the hell out of everybody because of his exacting standards."
That said, she noted he was just as hard on himself. For instance, he would never conduct a new piece until he had transposed it for piano and understood it through and though, note for note. He worked, she said, 365 days a year. And the need to strive for ever-better results was simply who he was.Report Typo/Error

|Fast Break: Doc Rivers' Clippers hand Celtics another reunion loss
|12.11.13 at 9:57 pm ET
Celtics fans thanked Doc Rivers with a standing ovation during a video tribute after the first quarter, and how did he repay his former organization? Guiding his Clippers to a 96-88 victory in his first game since leaving Boston.
Jeff Green (29 points), Brandon Bass (17 points, 12 rebounds) and Jordan Crawford (20 points, 9 assists) all had themselves a game against their former coach, but it wasn't enough to help the Celtics avoid a second straight loss.
Not the greatest reunion week for the C's, who drop to 10-14 and watch their Atlantic Division lead dwindle to a game over the idle Raptors.
The usuals: While the Celtics played stout defense, Clippers stars Chris Paul and Blake Griffin got theirs, combining for 40 points, 14 rebounds and 13 assists on the night. Meanwhile, the C's held Los Angeles' remaining three starters — Willie Green, Jared Dudley and DeAndre Jordan — to 22 points, 13 boards and two dimes. The strategy that probably wasn't a strategy at all nearly worked.
Jump shoot: While Avery Bradley's jump shot has vastly improved since last season, Wednesday wasn't his night. He didn't connect on his first jumper until midway through the fourth quarter, although he did throw down this impressive one-handed alley-oop from Crawford early. His first connection from long distance, though, did give the Celtics a lead back after Los Angeles started the second half on a 15-4 run.
Benched: For the second straight night, Celtics coach Brad Stevens got little contribution from his second unit. With Kris Humphries nursing a bruised right knee and rookie Kelly Olynyk (ankle) missing his ninth straight game, Vitor Faverani was the lone big off the bench, and he put up zeroes again. The C's reserves didn't score their first points until Gerald Wallace's layup with 1:54 remaining in the third gave the C's a 63-60 lead. And somehow Courtney Lee fouled out with all of zero points in the 15 minutes of action.
Steez: The legend of Crawford continues to grow with each passing game. Facing Paul, the best floor general in the business, Crawford held his own in the first half. The Celtics point guard entered the break with nine points, five assists and just one turnover — respectable numbers opposite Paul's 15 points, three assists and two turnovers. Meanwhile, the C's assisted on 12 of their 18 first-half field goals to take a 45-39 lead.
Motivation: Two of the Celtics most scorned by Doc's departure, Green and Bass, came to play against their former coach. When Rivers left, admitting an unwillingness to go through another rebuilding process, that had to sting for the players left on the roster. Bass tallied his second double-double of the season in as many nights, and Green netted 20 points for the first time this month, including this monster dunk.
Defense: Through three quarters, the Celtics held the Clippers to 66 points on 43.1 percent shooting (40.9 percent in the first and 40.0 in the second), staying within two when the C's themselves were shooting just 39.1 percent from the field. Los Angeles came into the game shooting 46.5 percent on the season and scoring 105.1 points per 100 possessions, both top-five marks in the league. Unfortunately for Boston, the aggressive defense led to 17 personal fouls and 34 free throws for Los Angeles (as opposed to 19 free throws for the C's).
|Celtics pay video tribute to Doc Rivers
|at 8:26 pm ET
Between the first and second quarters of Wednesday night's game between the Celtics and Clippers, Boston paid tribute to the coach who led the franchise to its 17th NBA championship with a video on the Jumbotron. He received a standing ovation from the Garden crowd. And the Celtics led 28-25 after one.
|Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett show Celtics love
|12.10.13 at 10:38 pm ET
Both Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett spoke fondly of the Celtics in the aftermath of their new team's 104-96 win over the organization that sent them to Brooklyn.
Paul Pierce: "I love those guys. They're going to fight. That's that Celtics pride. They all wear it with pride. You see it in the way they play, the way they're coached. You hear [Rajon] Rondo on the sidelines coaching. They're going to continue to be the Celtics, and they're going to always play with pride."
Kevin Garnett: "Because Doc [Rivers] isn't there, it's a little less emotional. You don't see Danny [Ainge] sitting on the sidelines. You don't see Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, Eddie House, Baby [Glen Davis]. I see Rajon over there, which makes it a little more emotional at times. Obviously, I went to battle with BB [Brandon Bass], Jeff Green, Courtney Lee and a lot of those guys. Those are real solid guys that I know on that team. Other than that, it was another night in the office. They've been playing well. They beat the crap out of the Knicks. Obviously, we haven't been playing well at home, so we wanted to come in and play well, but there will always be a special place in my heart when I face the green."
One reunion down, one to go, as the Celtics host Rivers' Clippers on Wednesday night.
|Fast Break: Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett win Celtics reunion
|at 10:01 pm ET
The pregame hoopla may have focused on Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce's first game against their former team, but Brook Lopez and Deron Williams stole the show on the court in Brooklyn's 104-96 victory against the Celtics.
Williams (25 points) and Lopez (24 points) helped the Nets end the C's three-game win streak and crawl within two games of Boston's Atlantic Division lead. Garnett and Pierce combined for 15 points, 16 rebounds and six assists.
All five Celtics starters scored in double figures, led by Bradley's 22 points. Brandon Bass (13 points, 11 rebounds) notched his first double-double of the season. Jeff Green added 19 points and six boards while Jared Sullinger and Jordan Crawford added 15 apiece. The Celtics fell to 10-13.
Babbling Brook: The Celtics had no answer for Lopez. The undersized frontcourt of Sullinger and Bass was no match for the 7-foot, 275-pound Lopez, who scored 22 points on 10-of-12 shooting through the first three quarters, when the Nets owned a 46-24 advantage in the paint and an 85-72 edge on the scoreboard. The Celtics made it a game in the final minutes, but couldn't overcome a Nets lead as large as 17.
El Hombre Destructible: Celtics coach Brad Stevens attempted to counter Lopez with Vitor Faverani, but the Brazilian 7-footer finished minus-12 in four minutes with two personal fouls and zeroes across the stat sheet. In his last five games, Faverani is averaging 2.8 points and 1.5 rebounds. While Kelly Olynyk's return may help the front line, the C's still won't have a defender capable of matching up with a true center.
Bench press: Pierce came off the bench for just the fourth time in his career, anchoring a Brooklyn second unit that dominated their Celtics counterparts. While Pierce scored in the single digits, he added seven rebounds and three assists to give the Nets reserves a total of 22 points, 20 rebounds and six assists. Faverani, Gerald Wallace and Kris Humphries all struggled, as the Celtics bench totaled just 12 points, eight rebounds and five assists.
Second helping: Often matched up with Williams, who missed the previous nine games with an ankle injury, Bradley torched the Nets point guard in the second quarter, scoring 12 of his 15 first-half points to help the Celtics remain within nine, 56-47, at halftime. Bradley has now reached double-digit scoring in 15 games, a number he didn't reach until mid-March last season.
Triple threat: The Celtics made eight of their first 14 3-point attempts, including their first three tries of the third quarter to tie the game at 60-60. Bradley started 3-of-5, Green made his first two and Sullinger connected on his first two tries after halftime, as the C's erased a 13-point first-half deficit 2:22 into the third quarter.
Old friends: As far as the reunion goes, this hug between Garnett and Rajon Rondo during a timeout said it all. This wasn't exactly the cold shoulder routine KG gave Ray Allen last season.

|Jordan Crawford named Player of the Week
|12.09.13 at 3:18 pm ET
Add this to the long list of things you never thought you'd read this NBA season (or ever, for that matter): Jordan Crawford, starting point guard for the first-place Celtics, earned Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors.
The C's were the conference's lone team to finish last week unbeaten, sweeping the Bucks, Nuggets and Knicks to improve their record to 10-12. Crawford averaged 23.3 points (61.0 FG%, 52.2 3P%), 6.7 assists and 3.0 rebounds.
- Celtics 108, Bucks 100: 25 points (season high), 5 assists, 2 rebounds
- Celtics 106, Nuggets 98: 22 points, 8 assists, 4 rebounds
- Celtics 114, Knicks 73: 23 points (career-high six 3's), 7 assists, 3 boards
Crawford beat out Pacers forward Paul George and Pistons teammates Andre Drummond and Brandon Jennings for the honor. Obviously, this is the first Player of the Week award of Crawford's four-year career.

This time, the Celtics found a way to hold their 27-point first half lead.
Jordan Crawford scored 22 while Avery Bradley and Kris Humphries each added 18 to lead a balanced attack as the Celtics raced out to huge first half lead and held on for a 106-98 win over the Denver Nuggets Friday night at TD Garden. Jeff Green scored 15 while Brandon Bass added 14.
The win improves the Celtics to 9-12 on the season, which is still good for first place in the underwhelming Atlantic Division.
The Celtics couldn't have asked for a better start than the one they got Friday night against the Nuggets.
Led by six points from Bradley, the Celtics raced out to a 14-0 lead to open the game. Bradley finished the first quarter with 13 points and the Celtics made 17-of-26 shots (65.4 percent) to open a huge 39-15 lead over a Nuggets team that entered the game 11-7 and in third place in the Northwest Division of the Western Conference.
The Celtics built their lead to 27 when Vitor Faveriani hit a three to open the second quarter.
From that point, the Nuggets began to claw their way back into the game, outscoring Boston 29-25 in the second quarter. Still, thanks to back-to-back dunks from Humphries and Bradley to close the first half, the Celtics led by 20 at the half, 64-44.
Randy Foye hit a three to start a 9-0 Denver run to open the second half. JJ Hickson converted a layup that cut the lead down to 11, 64-53, in the first two minutes of the half. Ty Lawson drilled a pull-up jumper with 7:42 left in the quarter as Denver capped a 20-4 spurt that cut Boston's lead down to four, 68-64.
Denver would draw to within three twice in the third, the last time coming on a Timofey Mozgov dunk with 3:31 left in the quarter that cut Boston's lead to 76-73.
Crawford's three with 39.5 seconds remaining and the shot clock winding down gave the Celtics a 106-96 lead and sealed Boston's ninth win of the season.
The Celtics avoided repeating last season's epic 27-point collapse in Atlanta. On Jan. 25, 2013, the Celtics led the Hawks, 48-21, in the second quarter but couldn't hold on in the second half, losing 123-111, in double-overtime. That was also the last game Rajon Rondo played, as he tore his right ACL late in the game and has been out of action since.
|Carmelo Anthony recruiting Rajon Rondo to Knicks?
|at 9:55 am ET
In an interview with USA Today's Jason Jordan, Mouth of Wilson (Va.) Oak Hill Academy boys basketball coach Steve Smith, whose teams featured Rajon Rondo and Carmelo Anthony at the prep level, claimed the Knicks superstar is lobbying the Celtics point guard to join him in New York.
JJ: Are you confident that he'll be just as good, if not better, coming off of the ACL tear?
SS: No, I think he should be fine. He took a long time off and he's rehabbed the right way. Whether he stays in Boston or not who knows. I know, talking to Melo , he's recruiting Rajon to come to New York. Melo thinks he'll come, too. You never know about that stuff though. I think either way, Rajon will be fine.
Last month, New York Daily News writer Frank Isola reported the Knicks eyed Rondo as their "primary target" and attempted to package Iman Shumpert, Raymond Felton and Amar'e Stoudemire in a deal for the three-time NBA All-Star — a preposterous proposal that Celtics president Danny Ainge said never reached his desk. Even if Ainge was willing to trade Rondo within the division, New York cannot currently trade a first-round pick earlier than 2018 and seemingly does not have the assets to acquire Rondo no matter how creative the offer.
Likewise, Rondo is signed through next season, when he could command a maximum contract on the free agent market, but the Celtics would be able to offer a significantly better deal than the Knicks should Ainge deem his rehabbing star a centerpiece worth building around. However, all of New York's burdensome contracts, including Anthony's, expire at the end of next season as well, so it's not out of the question for the two former Oak Hill Academy stars to join forces. Rondo didn't transfer to play for Smith until two years after Anthony graduated.
Of course, the NBA has strict rules against any form of tampering with players under contract for other teams.

Worker Protection:
OSHA Inspections at Establishments Experiencing Labor Unrest
HEHS-00-144: Published: Aug 31, 2000. Publicly Released: Aug 31, 2000.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-7202
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed worker protection, focusing on: (1) the extent to which employers experiencing labor unrest are more likely to be inspected than employers not experiencing labor unrest; and (2) whether the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has policies for performing inspections during labor unrest and whether these policies are followed.
GAO noted that: (1) establishments experiencing labor unrest are about 6.5 times more likely to be inspected by OSHA than establishments not experiencing labor unrest (8.6 percent inspected compared with about 1.3 percent) during fiscal years (FY) 1994 through 1998; (2) the statutory requirement that OSHA investigate valid complaints and OSHA's policy to investigate a fatality or catastrophe may be related to the higher rate of inspection for establishments experiencing labor unrest; (3) about 68 percent of the approximately 1,900 OSHA inspections conducted each year at establishments experiencing labor unrest resulted from complaints, fatalities, or catastrophes; (4) in contrast, only about 27 percent of the approximately 100,000 total inspections OSHA conducted each year resulted from complaints, fatalities, or catastrophes; (5) about 76 percent of the establishments with labor unrest that were inspected by OSHA from FY 1994 through FY 1998 were unionized, as compared with about 24 percent of all establishments inspected by OSHA over this period; (6) while it did not appear that unionized establishments were in general more likely to receive a complaint-based inspection than nonunionized establishments, GAO's analysis did find that, among establishments experiencing labor unrest, there were a higher proportion of complaint-based inspections at unionized establishments than at nonunionized establishments; (7) OSHA's policy concerning inspections during labor unrest provides discretion for programmed inspections; (8) OSHA may delay programmed inspections during periods of labor unrest, such as a strike, which would prevent OSHA inspectors from witnessing actual work operations; (9) however, OSHA officials said that it has rarely delayed these inspections; and (10) statutory requirements or OSHA's long-standing policy dictate that inspections resulting from valid complaints, fatalities, or catastrophes--which accounted for the majority of OSHA's inspections at establishments with labor unrest during FY 1994 through FY 1998--must be performed, regardless of whether labor unrest exists.

Forums: Firewire Heat
iLounger, "colskee" writes in the forums about his iPod overheating.
"As I have a mac at home (which contains my iPod's mp3s). I once used the iPod to play tracks via iTunes on my work machine (i.e play tracks while it charges over Firewire). I wouldn't recommend doing this. The iPod got RED HOT and the LCD display darkened to almost black. I panicked for a while, but it cooled down and the LCD lightened up now. Still love the pod."

iPod goes to the Grammys
USA Today has a report on this years 44th Grammy Award performers and presenters receiving, you guessed it, an iPod in their gift baskets… should look nice next to the aluminum bust.
Cases: The PodPac Unlimited available in colors
iPoding has a report on the new, clear vinyl PodPac Unlimited, available in four colors; Pink, Yellow, Green and Blue. John Corbin, PodPac creator, had the following to say about the PodPac and the reason behind color PodPacs.
"I like to give people options. We were able to integrate belt clips, Velcro, and then got requests for Podpacs without either, unlimited by the additions. It seems some folks like using the Podpac AND another case. They use the inexpensive Podpac Unlimited to protect the iPod from fingerprints and scratches and transport the Podpac-covered iPod in a cushioned shock-protective case from other manufacturers. The color Podpacs are an extension of these requests for an unlimited unit that can reflect the personality or mood of the iPod owner - plus they let you tell your iPod from your friends' iPods in an instant."

All Product Details
During his lifetime, Herbert Read (1893–1968) acquired a considerable international reputation. Poet and anarchist; novelist and biographer; critic of art, literature, and life; aesthetic philosopher; and revolutionary theorist of education, Read was in a unique place as an interpreter of his time. Few writers have probed so deeply into the nature of the prevailing culture, and none brought together the insights of modern philosophers and critics, poets and artists, psychologists and social scientists, as Read did.
Best known as an art critic and follower of the theories of Carl Jung, Read was a pioneer in the English-speaking world for his use of psychoanalysis as a tool for art and literary criticism. Although knighted by Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1953 for "services to literature," Read regarded himself, politically, as an anarchist.
This work, by fellow anarchist George Woodcock, is a critical study of the intellectual career of Herbert Read, as well as a thorough study of Read's criticism, creative writing, art theory, and anarchist philosophy. Woodcock does not divide Read's writings on politics from those on art and culture as Read saw art, culture, and politics as a single expression of human consciousness. Comprehensive and authoritative, it is an impressive volume that presents a unified portrait of one of England's most distinguished twentieth-century critics.
George Woodcock (1912–1995)—award-winning poet, author, essayist, and widely known as a literary journalist and historian—published more than ninety titles on history, biography, philosophy, poetry, and literary criticism.

Feel the BloodMature
I crouched down in the blood on the ground, and dipped my hands in the nectar of life, coating them with the dark red stain. I stared at my hand, watching the blood as it dripped and flowed around the shape of my hand, making tiny little rivers, like veins. Across my hand the blood flowed and slid, crisscrossing over what had already dried. I covered my arms until they were completely red, and wiped my hands on my bare chest, the bloody prints burning into my skin. I stared at my arms, at the wonder and the color that was there, the veins of her blood that danced with the light, the color of my skin and the amazing intricacies that allowed it to function. But that only added to the appeal of the life dripping from my fingertips. I stood and walk past the body to the window, and look out at the moon. The sky was clear and the moon was full, its rays streaming down into my private world. I put my forehead to the glass and my hands on the glass, and stare at the moon while I fog the glass with my breath. I I loved my little world, for I had no one else her to cause me pain. Of course that also meant no one to talk to, but that was acceptable. No one needed to know who I was anymore. They had all lost my trust, and with it my voice. They all betrayed me when I needed them most, but that was no longer an issue. The only one that could have kept me there was now dead by my hands.
I walk away from the window leaving my bloodied hand prints there as well and step closer to the corpse and sat down in the blood, watching as its light blue eyes stare off into space, their emptiness reflecting the hole in my own chest. Its skin gone pale from lack of blood, the warmth gone with its life, I reached out with my hand and touch its cheek, cold like ice compared to the warm blood that once flowed from the wound. I sat there for a time, just sitting there so that I could be with her all alone, to just sit and relax, never again to confuse myself because of her actions.

Pence, Ritz seek federal dollars without strings
Last week, two diametrically opposed Indiana politicians found themselves doing the same dance with the federal government.
Democratic Schools Superintendent Glenda Ritz filed a request Monday with the U.S. Department of Education to grant the state a waiver from the federal No Child Left Behind Act.
The next day, Republican Gov. Mike Pence filed a request with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to use a state-run alternative to traditional Medicaid to expand health care for the state's poor.
In both cases, a central question has been whether Indiana would receive federal money without the strings attached.
For Ritz, control over more than $200 million in federal "Title I" dollars is at stake. And for Pence, the $16.5 billion in federal Medicaid money is on the line.

Texas A&M University, Corpus Christi, TX
PURPOSE: Traditionally physicians as well as patients have tried to fed the patients with higher calories to improve immunity and healing. It has been demonstrated that most patients can be fed 100% to 120% of estimated BEE. At our institution we undertook the initiative to assess the use of Peripheral parentral nutrition therapy at our institution.
METHODS: Prospective randomized chart review of 21 patients on peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) used at our institution in July 2010 was conducted. Energy requirement were calculated by clinical dieticians, by using the Harris-Benedict Equation. Activity factor as well as injury factors were assessed. On the basis of nutritional assessment patients were classified into high risk group [cancer or surgery patients -(N=8)], medium risk group [sepsis, dysphagia, chemotherapy associated gastroenteritis, & pancreatitis), length of PPN use (3+ days), enteral nutrition use or other diet type, (N=10)] and low risk [diagnosis (poor oral intake, malnutrition, dysphagia, diverticulitis), length of PPN use (2+ days), enteral nutrition use or other diet type, (N=3)].
RESULTS: 10/21 patients (47.6%) were placed on nothing per oral (N.P.O) status prior to PPN, N.P.O. duration prior to PPN ranged from 0 to 72 hours, 5/21 (23.8%) were N.P.O. for 24 hours prior to PPN. The results are shown in Table 1. The mean total PPN (Kcal) received by our patients was 2623.1+ 808.3. Mean additional calories (Kcal) of 1052.4 + 613.3, received by our patients came from other sources, such as diprivan, IV dextrose, tube feedings and oral diet while patients were being managed on PPN therapy. It showed as in Table 1 that 80% of our patients on PPN therapy at our institution were being overfed. Mean length of stay on PPN therapy was 8.8 + 8.8 days.
CONCLUSIONS: Contrary to normal belief by physicians, nursing staff, patients and families, over 80% of patients at our institution has been overfed during the study period.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Protocol and procedures have been designed along with education to prevent overfed and underfed situations at our institution

Add a Review
Like many adults, I had braces as a teenager but never wore my retainer. As a result I found myself as an adult with crooked and moving teeth. I found Dr. Martin very professional and his office was suited for adults and children. He gave competent advice on the latest treatments and helped me understand all the options I had available. His staff is incredibly nice and outgoing and the office is new, clean and inviting. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Martin to others and will be taking my children to him as well.
Procedures performed:
Our daughter Jenny thinks Doc Martin is the greatest. When her braces came off we showed her the "before" photos. She literally cried and said, "Mom and Dad, thank you, thank you." Three more kids to go, and we'll definitely trust them to Dr. Martin. I love the friendly staff and I appreciate their focus on hygiene. My youngest accidentally touched the instrument cart and Midge wiped it off immediately. We give Doc Martin's office five stars!
Procedures performed:
When I first visited Dr. Martin's office, I felt very welcome. The office is clean, up-to-date and comfortable. Dr. Martin is very competent and skilled. I've visited other providers on a first-time appointment trial and chose Dr. Martin because he spent more time than others in his evaluation of my daughter's orthodontic needs and presented me with options that fit our goals and our budget. He is very impressive and I would highly recommend him. Very worthwhile.
Procedures performed:
I was most impressed with Dr. Martin's thorough exam. I felt his diagnosis was more complete, and a bit less expensive than other options because he did not try to sell me on a more expensive treatment plan. I'm a person who likes to be in charge, and I felt he respected my need for clear communication. My treatment is almost finished, and all of my visits have been pleasant. I always get to see Dr. Martin on my visits, and his staff also impresses me as very professional and competent. They make sure that my Invisalign trays are fitting properly and comfortably. Also, they have a great sense of humor and seem to really like their work. When my kids are ready for braces, I will gladly drive them a few extra miles to get what I consider the best care in the state. My only criticism is that I had to wait an extra 15 minutes on my last visit, but that's not bad compared to most other medical doctor visits. P.S. On my second visit I noticed his Texas diploma on the wall - it had a gold stamp that read "Suma Cum Lauda." When I asked his assistant about it, she explained that out of 100 students, he finished in the top 3 percent of his graduating class. That didn't really surprise me because I knew he was exceptional, I just didn't know he was that exceptional.

This poem is old and I actually forget when i wrote it. I think I wrote it shortly after the Phantom Poem.
Anyway, i think it is done.
I don't look you in the eyes,
Because they tell thousand lies,
I don't look you in the face,
I know you're a fake,
Instead I look you in the heart,
That's where the truth lies,

David Beckham Kicks Off a New Soccer Start and Reportedly Nabs a Royal Invite
David Beckham practiced with the Tottenham Hotspur team in London today. It was his last session with the soccer club before he returns to play with the LA Galaxy. The soon-to-be father of four hopped over to NYC last week to surprise his wife Victoria with a romantic Valentine's Day date while she was on the East Coast to show her latest collection during Fashion Week. David will be returning to California soon, though he and Victoria are expected to be back in England for the upcoming royal wedding. The couple, along with celebs like Kanye West and Elton John, have reportedly won a coveted spot the invite list.


text: UPDATED 12:07 30th August 2015 Player sponsored by - Vanguard The Owls signed Fernando Forestieri for an undisclosed fee from Premier League side Watford in August 2015. The gifted forward signed a four-year contract at Hillsborough. Crowd favourite Forestieri played a significant role in Watford's promotion to the Premier League in 2014/15, featuring 26 times for the Hornets. He originally signed on loan from Serie A side Udinese ahead of the 2012/13 campaign before penning a permanent contract in January 2013 of that season. The sheer skill of the Italian Under-21 star soon saw Forestieri hit the spot in Hertfordshire and he has maintained cult hero status ever since. Forestieri scooped the Owls' Player of the Year award in his maiden season at Hillsborough and scored 15 goals in 39 appearances. Argentinian by birth, he moved to Italy aged just 16 and assumed Italian nationality. Forestieri built up his experience with loan spells at Siena, Vicenza, Malaga, Empoli and Bari either side of joining Udinese.

New Delhi, Sept 15 (ANI): The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has renewed its commitment of financial support to the Public Service Broadcasting Trust (PSBT), a Delhi-based NGO.
Under the plan scheme component for production of documentaries through NGOs, the Films Division would grant funds to the PSBT, which has been short-listed for production of documentaries for the current financial year.
In the past also, the Doordarshan and the PSBT have had a successful public-private partnership.
Over the past nine years, a large number of documentary films have been funded by the Doordarshan.
Among the National Non-Feature Film Awards-2007, at least four of such joint productions of the Prasar Bharati and the PSBT have won accolades.
Speaking on the occasion of 'Commemorating 50 years of Public Television In India', Minister for Information and Broadcasting Ambika Soni invited suggestions from the luminaries of PSBT Trustees for making the Public Service Broadcaster-Doordarshan more vibrant and interesting while retaining its commitment for healthy entertainment suitable for family viewing.
Soni also reiterated that her Ministry would continue to strive to encourage creative skills so long as they honour the sensibilities of all single television viewing families.
The Minister exhorted the young filmmakers - particularly those who are the beneficiaries of the PSBT-Ministry fellowships, to take up the challenge of making relevant programmes for particularly the marginalized strata of society.
"The Doordarshan is the only channel with the widest terrestrial reach which caters to the remotest and border areas often neglected by the commercial interests of other channels," she added.
She also invited stalwarts like Shyam Benegal (a PSBT Trustee), who had made the memorable 'Bharat ek khoj' serial for Doordarshan in the past, to contribute meaningfully to Doordarshan again.
Adoor Gopalkrishnan (Chairman PSBT)'s new film "Oru Pennum Randaanum", funded by Doordarshan was screened on the occasion. (ANI)

Welcome To Our Office!
Hi, I'm Dr. Will Vargo DC. Here at the Wilshire Chiropractic Institute, we treat muscle, tendon, and joint sprains and strains, accident related injuries, and other pain throughout the body, including the neck and the back. We use state of the art computerized testing and x-rays to determine the exact location of your injury, and highly specialized treatment to reduce pain, and speed up healing.
State Of The Art Treatment
We are an award winning full service chiropractic practice with over a decade of experience, featuring on-site physiotherapies, advanced treatment options and excellent chiropractic care.
Auto Accident Treatment
Here at the Wilshire Chiropractic Institute, we have treated numerous injury victims just like you. We are well trained in the diagnosis and treatment of auto accident patients.
The Gonstead Technique is a system of Chiropractic Treatment used at the Wilshire Chiropractic Institute to analyze and care for your spine in a gentle, effective and specific way.
Hi-Tech Treatment
Not only do we offer basic chiropractic services but we also offer many Hi Tech Treatment options not found in a typical chiropractic clinic.
Triton DTS Spinal Decompression
When it comes to back pain, or neck pain, herniated or bulging discs, as well as arm and leg pain, our technology focuses directly on the root cause of the problem… that compressed spinal disc, and/or pinched nerve.
The ATM® (Active Therapeutic Movement) Concept provides clinicians the practical ability to perform integrated passive and active therapy for musculoskeletal disorders.
Low Level (Cold) Laser Therapy is a painless, sterile, non invasive, drug free treatment which is used to treat a variety of pain syndromes, injuries, wounds, fractures, neurological conditions and pathologies.
Synergy neck exercise program entails wakening of hypotonic muscles that are less active, and stretches tightened hypertonic muscles helping to restore proper balance, posture and regain pain free movements.
The Taylor Technique is used for treating tissue adhesions such as those in fibromyalgia where one tissue is damaged and adheres to another that it is supposed to glide over. This treatment typically brings relief and healing several times faster than other more conventional therapies.
To enhance your healing, the Wilshire Chiropractic Institute uses in-house many of the techniques that typically would need to be done at a physical therapist's office, and some that they don't have access to.
"It's worth anyone's time coming in for an evaluation. More than likely the Doc can help improve your condition." Cynthia C.
"I would recommend Dr. Vargo because he is very caring, honest and you can tell he loves his profession. Most of all he cares about the people who are suffering like me." – Alma P.
"I started my treatment three weeks ago. I am very impressed that in such short time I feel so much better. Being able to sleep a full eight hours has made a significant difference in my overall health." – Guadalupe I.
Exams and X Rays
We take, develop, and review all of our own X-Rays in house. In the event that X-Rays are necessary the cost will be included in the price of the initial consult.
Myovision 8000
At the Wilshire Chiropractic Institute, it's important for me to gather the best objective scientific data I can to help me determine the best course of treatment for you. I do this using the Gonstead System and the Myovision 8000, which includes a surface EMG, a dynamic EMG, and Thermography.
Get In Touch
We'd love to hear from you whether you need to make an appointment, or just want to pop in for a consultation.
Monday – Friday:9am – 12pm & 3pm-6pm

Designed and developed by Dr. Elena Bodnar, the Emergency Bra helps you breathe easier in case of disaster. The Emergency Bra is a protective garment that can be split into two masks in case of emergency to filter out harmful particles released by fire, explosion or biological attacks.
Available in red, this Emergency Bra is definitely an innovative piece of lingerie that will guarantee you support in more ways than one.
Implications - The Emergency Bra is phenomenal in my opinion because of how it repurposes a product that traditionally only has one function. With air quality in major urban centers on the decline, you may be seeing more of these.

Why End Polio?
Top 5 Reasons to End Polio Now
We have the ability to protect every last person, especially children from this entirely preventable disease.
The Human Cost
If we choose to control polio rather than eradicate it, polio could rebound to 200,000 cases per year within the next 10 years.
Eradication is Achievable
We have the tools to end polio and the means to reach all children with the polio vaccine.
What You Don't Know About the Campaign to End Polio
There is more to eradicating a disease than just immunizing children.
It's a Good Investment
Experts estimate that global investment in a polio-free world will net an economic benefit of $40 to $50 billion over the next 20 years.
A Way to Strengthen the System
Our polio eradication efforts have established active disease surveillance networks in countries around the world that are used to protect communities against multiple health issues.
The Importance of Surveillance
Surveillance is one of the most important jobs done to eradicate polio. And today, new and innovative approaches are being used to find viruses before they even cause symptoms.
We Can Set the Stage
The ability to reach all children with the polio vaccine proves that we can succeed on future global health initiatives.

Chytridiomycosis has become one of the biggest threats to global biodiversity. Understanding more about how the disease dynamic changes depending on the response of different amphibian species is vital in fighting against it, and Peñalara offers ideal conditions for these studies. Therefore, we have begun a project with a new approach towards finding this information, in which we will work with diverse investigators from the United Kingdom.
