Bar Dispenses $2 Pregnancy Tests To Fight Fetal Alcohol Syndrome
It's not unusual to see dispensers for tampons or sanitary napkins in women's washrooms, but at a college and a bar in Whitehorse, women can also buy pregnancy tests.
In an attempt to reduce the number of women who drink while pregnant, the Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Society Yukon installed three pregnancy test dispensers — two at Yukon College and one at the pub Dirty Northern Public House — in Whitehorse last year.
"What we wanted to do is change the culture around pregnancy and drinking,'' said Wenda Bradley, the society's executive director.

It's become normal to see young women binge drinking on a night out, but it can have severe consequences for an unborn child if the mother isn't aware she is pregnant yet, Bradley said.
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder includes a range of physical and intellectual disabilities that cannot be cured, but are preventable.
"What we wanted to do is change the culture around pregnancy and drinking.''
While there is no concrete national statistic on the rate of the disorder, a 2015 report by the Canadian Medical Association Journal said an estimated one in 100 people live with the condition.
Bradley said binge drinking can have the most dangerous effects on a fetus.
In the North, the cost of a pregnancy test at a drugstore can range from $18 to $20. The dispensers are far more affordable at only $2 for a test, Bradley said.
"If they're being told they shouldn't be drinking during pregnancy, then they also need to be able to know if they are or are not pregnant.''
Almost 200 already sold
Over 190 tests have been sold between the three dispensers since they were installed in April 2015.
A similar dispenser installed at the Downtown Hotel in Dawson City last year has also had about 100 purchases, a significant number considering the town's population of 2,000 people, said Angela Van Nostrand, programming co-ordinator for Healthy Families Healthy Babies.
"Early detection of a pregnancy will certainly allow women to make informed choices on how they are going to take care of themselves.''
The effectiveness of the dispensers is not simply tied to the number of pregnancy tests purchased.
The University of Alaska Anchorage, which is collecting surveys from Whitehorse and other cities, is studying the influence posters have when attached to these pregnancy test dispensers.

In the United States, all establishments serving alcohol are required to have posters or flyers informing the public of the risks of drinking while pregnant, yet very few people are knowledgeable about those risks, said David Driscoll, who is leading the two-year study.
"Very few people have seen these flyers. They've become so ubiquitous that people don't notice them,'' he said.
The posters on pregnancy test dispensers are unexpected and unfamiliar sights to most women. Driscoll said they would more likely grab attention than a traditional poster behind a bar.
"Very few people have seen these flyers. They've become so ubiquitous that people don't notice them.''
Although prevalence rates of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder in the U.S. have been found to be low at about one to three cases per 1,000 births, Driscoll said it's worth finding more effective ways to bring those numbers down.
"If you have a (fetal alcohol syndrome) child, that is extraordinarily challenging and not to mention expensive health outcome,'' he said. "The cost associated with placing a pregnancy test dispenser at a bar pale in comparison.''Also On HuffPost:
Alcohol abuse is a pattern of drinking alcohol that results in negative consequences on a person's life. Those consequences could be related to work, relationships, health, social interactions, and/or the legal system. Alcohol abuse is the less servere facet of alcohol use disorder, which also includes alcoholism, according to MedicineNet.com. Alcohol abuse affects about 10 per cent of women and 20 per cent of men in the United States.
Alcoholism, which is also called alcohol dependence or alcohol addiction, is the more severe side of alcohol use disorder. It's defined by MedicineNet.com as a destructive pattern of drinking that includes tolerance to or withdrawal from alcohol. Alcoholics may also drink more than or for longer than intended, and have difficulty reducing or moderating their use.
There are many telltale signs of alcohol addiction, says Dr. Andrea G. Barthwell, the founder and medical director of the Two Dreams Outer Banks treatment centre. Those include an obsession with alcohol, or alcohol occupying your thoughts; continuing to seek out alcohol and to drink despite it causing personal harm; difficulty stopping drinking; withdrawal symptoms if drinking does stop; lack of control over when and for how long drinking occurs; denial of a problem despite the presence of negative effects from drinking; hiding drinking; blacking out while drinking; and low self esteem, depression, and anxiety.
Ultimately, people from all walks of life can develop a drinking problem. But some risk factors make it more likely that a person will have alcohol use disorder. Those factors include depression, anxiety or other mood problems, and a history of parental alcoholism. A childhood history of sexual or physical abuse is another risk factor, and teens who first drink between the ages of 11 and 14 are more likely to develop a problem than those who begin drinking later.
Regularly practicing responsible drinking habits can help prevent you from abusing alcohol. Lauren Costine, a clinical psychologist, says those responsible behaviours include not drinking on an empty stomach, knowing your limits with alcohol and sticking to them, drinking slowly, pacing yourself with non-alcoholic beverages, making sure it's safe to drink if you're taking medication, not accepting drinks from strangers, and never drinking and driving —plan ahead to appoint a designated driver or arrange a ride home.
"The methods of treatment that work for one person may not work for another so care needs to be holistic and individualized," Barthwell says. At her centre, options include abstinence, peer support, professional help, medication reviews, nutrition, exercise, and a 12-step model.
Some people will experience physical symptoms of alcohol withdrawal — and for those with a more serious problem, these symptoms can be a health danger. The symptoms can occur when someone who drinks large amounts of alcohol stops suddenly, according to Medicine.Net.com. Symptoms are generally the worst between 48 and 72 hours after a person stops drinking, but can continue for weeks. The physical symptoms include depression, anxiety, fatigue, mood swings, nightmares, and nausea. In the most severe cases, they include hallucinations, rapid heart rate, tremors, and seizures. If you are concerned about physical withdrawal symptoms in yourself or a loved one, seek medical attention.
Many people benefit from time at a treatment centre in order to address their drinking problem in a supportive environment where they can develop strategies for sobriety. "Treatment is a great way to get someone started on the road to success — a life free of alcoholism and its self-destructive nature," says Costine. "Family members should get involved and, if it is far away, be sure to connect with your loved one's treatment team. Go to their family program."
This well-known 12-step model has helped a lot of people stop abusing alcohol, and it's a resource that may work for you or your loved one. "Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) is one of the most well-known programs for treating alcoholism," Barthwell says. "AA and other 12-step models are based on honest self-evaluation and affirmation of certain virtuous principles. We fully embrace the 12 steps as an important part of recovery support, but also realize that it can be most beneficial when used in conjunction with other modalities."
AA isn't the only popular support program for those dealing with problem drinking. Options include SMART Recovery and CoDA, as well as any number of local options. Ontario's Drug and Alcohol Helpline maintains a list of Canadian resources that may be helpful.
The loved ones of people with a drinking problem also need support and help. Al-Anon is a group offering support to the family and friends of people with alcohol use disorder. They offer support to parents and spouses, along with adult children of alcoholics, teens, and other family members. If you don't have a meeting nearby, look for other support options including one-on-one therapy, which can help provide support and counter the enabling relationship that often comes along with alcohol abuse.
If you or a loved one is in crisis because of alcohol abuse, there are support lines available across the country at all hours of the day and night. The government of Canada maintains a list of resources for drug and alcohol abuse and mental health, for anywhere in the country. And if you are experiencing thoughts of suicide, call 911 or go to an emergency room.

Cleaning in Place is a regular occurance at any Beverage factory, to ensure that product lines are free and clear from residues and microorgansims.
Chemicals such as Causic Soda, Peroxide and Chlorine are traditionally used to acheive this, however, there has been a worthly alternative to "Chemical CIP" on the market for some time.
ECA water CIP provides its clients with peace of mind as it is completely non-toxic yet it gets the job done efficiently.
Past generations of ECA equipment were not without their limitations, though, Radical Waters have been working for some time behind the scenes, to adapt and advance the technology to better suite you, our customers.

Diseases and infections cost farmers substantial amounts in proft loss annually, especially in the hatchery. Fortunately for poultry farming the major contributing issue of microbial contamination, can be eliminated and controlled on an ongoing basis, using proper management practices and modern health products.

Dairy Diseases have always been a major concern to the industry. However, with modern technology and proper dairy farm management, microbial contamination can be prevented and effectively controlled.
Radical Waters ECA technology solutions, offer complete eco-friendly and cost effective hygiene that begins initially by treating the water and continues through barns and the field. In fact treating the entire farm with ECA water solutions could well provide a host of benefits to dairy producers including:
- Provide a cleaner, safer, low-odour environment
- Improve milk quality and increase production
- Improved livestock health and quality of life
- Higher quality crop and feed
- Cost savings or compete removal of 'traditional' chemicals and detergents
We believe that our ECA solutions may be used to treat all surfaces and stages of dairy operations, from soil and water to animal feed to meat processing, by eliminating dangerous and unhealthy pathogens from the dairy environment with organically based and highly effective solutions.
Independent laboratory studies have proven that our ECA water solutions are non-toxic. At the dilutions used, the fluids and products are environmentally safe and non-toxic and do not contain or leave harmful residues associated with chemical-based supplements or disinfecting and cleaning agents.

Research conducted by Radical Waters in abattoirs, deboning and meat processing plants have been focussed on the extension of shelf life of meat and meat products thereby enhancing meat safety. Through the development of application methods of ECA solutions in the meat industry, high quality products can now be rendered by effective decontamination of water, surfaces, equipment and carcasses.
The application and monitoring system developed by Radical Waters ECA Water aims to achieve maximum reduction of bacterial counts at critical control points in the abattoirs, deboning and processing plants, thus ensuring that the HACCP system can effectively be applied to the product before entering the deboning facility. Microbiological sampling during deboning and processing is furthermore advocated to ensure optimal end product quality.
NB: this system does not replace sound hygiene and management systems. It purely serves to enhance these standard practices.
Food safety worldwide is of great concern to the industry and consumer alike. Increased demands result in higher line speeds and extended shifts, frequently in older facilities. This incidence of food borne diseases is on the increase despite enforced regulations and sophisticated management systems. Product recalls and returns amount to massive losses to the industry annually.
Topics: ECA Applications
The Challenges
Production efficiency is of the utmost importance to milk producers, especially considering that operating margins are generally quite restricted. Quality dairy cows and their offspring are thus valuable assets, and need to be able to produce optimally over their lifespan. Unfortunately, optimal production can be difficult to achieve due to adverse events, such as:
- Clinical and sub clinical mastitis resulting in production loss, treatment costs, discarding of milk, veterinary expenses and extra labour
- Death due to calf-hood and other diseases
- Delayed conception due to metritis, increased feeding costs
- Metabolic diseases such as acidosis and bloat resulting in production loss
The above factors highlight the importance of overall herd health.

Proper cold chain management is critical in the seafood processing industry. Keeping fresh fish at the right temperature after catching until sold to the end consumer will ensure its freshness and quality, however, spoilage of fresh fish can never be stopped, but it can certainly be controlled.
Two key factors that assist with the extension of shelf life in fresh fish are time and temperature. Temperature is in fact a legal requirement for food producers, which must ensure that all frozen and chilled foods are kept at the correct temperature throughout the cold chain.

- Pathogens - are disease causing microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, parasite and fungi)
- Bacteria - single celled living microorganisms responsible for the decay of many plant and animal diseases.
- Virus - The smallest of the microbial food contaminants, viruses rely on a living host to reproduce.
- Parasite - An organism that needs a living host to survive.
- Fungi - can be single celled or multi cellular microorganisms can that can cause food spoilage and lives by absorbing nutrients from organic matter

As ECA Water Technology is made using salt + water the ingredients are safe to handle, store and apply. But what has this got to do with saving water? Well, technically speaking, once ECA is applied it requires no rinsing from surfaces; unlike chemicals which consume a great deal of water through subsequent rinse cycles.
If you think small scale it might not seem like much, but when we're looking at large production lines, our 20 plus years' experience with ECA has seen Companies saving thousands of dollars in water while being assisted with the environmental challenge of water conservancy.
We all know by now, water is becoming scarce.
The water crises is not a new problem, but rather a prevailing one, and so it's time to change the way we've always done things, so that we can achive a different result.

If any piece of art ( in all the 7 known artistic / "aesthetic" branches ) does not touch your emotions and senses, then do not just think you're under-developed, ( in your right encephalus ) it's simply a question of preferences and tastes :)
Art for me is a form of worship, an expression of the higher being, an imitation of the creator who created a creator in His image, that's why I dance all my prayers onto God :)
I agree fully with the above comment. Having myself lent my hand to drawing and painting, music and the guitar as well as writing and poetry. Art is from within it expresses a part of our soul, it is a form of expressing love and is a prayer to him and can be a praise to his wonders and creations. God is not to be stick within the confines of a box! Not in temples made with hands as sayeth the prophet! No you cannot stuff art into a box and say only this is art! Art is the expression of the soul crying out! You have a powerful way of writing and using pictures to illustrate. Your work is thought provoking and meaningful! Wonderful!
Thank you for your kind words.
For Slide 5 I choose that clip-art painting image because it reminded me so much of Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling painting of "The Creation of Adam".
The text underneath and the magnifying glass is a semi-cryptic message that IMHO so very religious people (i.e. fundamentalists) are so busy look at the fine details (of the picture) that they are not seeing the beauty of the whole scene (the miracle of life)... IMHO =)
LOve the art works.

So, you know, there used to be a view in the past. And I think not just a Canadian view, a widespread view, that there was humanitarian assistance and then there was, you know, businesses and others building the economy. You've got to marry that, to some degree, if you're going to get the long-term results you want.
The other thing we've been doing, we've actually done even before that, as I was saying to Melinda [Gates] earlier, is we've been moving our aid towards organizations and programs that actually deliver services on the ground.
Now, it's not to say that we never fund a conference, we're funding this conference [the maternal and child health summit]. But we're getting away from talk shops and merely advocacy. Because my experience, our experience has been Canadians want to see results. And one of the things the Gates Foundation has done – I think Melinda probably understates it – I think the Gates Foundation has really shaken up a lot of the humanitarian aid world because it has focused on accountability, on measuring of results about being able to explain how what you're doing actually makes a difference, as opposed to just talking about it.
And that's tended to permeate not just what we're doing but what a lot of international organizations are doing.
I want to pick up on what you said about talk shops. You've chosen not to participate in certain things that the United Nations has worked on partly for that reason. Yet what you're working on here, with the maternal and child health initiative, has a lot of connections to multilateral organizations, to the United Nations, obviously, [with a focus on] two millennium development goals. What makes this different and worth engaging on?
I was going to say, the other thing I should have mentioned, we've done of course in our development policy is try and focus our efforts. You know, we found that if you're on every issue in every single part of the world, you don't accomplish much. So we've obviously tried to focus on this.
I think the truth is you have to examine all of these various organizations and activities and objectives on their own merits. You know, I think there was a view in the past that here was some international body, UN body or some initiative, and Canada's international share is four per cent so Canada should just give four per cent.
Well that's actually not our view. Our view is, is it effective? Is it something we want to focus on, or if it isn't effective, it's something we don't want to focus on. And so I think we're trying to be more selective, more effective and achieve results for Canadians, particularly when dollars are involved.
So it sounds like it's a question of really thinking through which are the circumstances and the particular initiatives that Canada wants to engage on?
The particular initiatives. But also, look, to be blunt, some international organizations, particularly some United Nations bodies are much more effective than others.
You spoke yesterday about calling on Canadians to consider why they should be thinking about foreign aid. When Canadians are thinking about their own economy, when they're thinking about Canada's, in some ways, struggling economy at times, why should their taxpayer dollars be going to developing countries?
I think you only would use the phrase Canada's struggling economy if you didn't go to any other economy. There's a few others that are doing as well, and even a couple doing better than ours. But you know, we're one of the very few large powerful,wealthy and growing economies in the world.
And I don't want to minimize the challenges that, you know, we have as a government between our own domestic priorities or the challenges people have in their own lives, with various financial demands. But I think you would find there are very few Canadians – I mentioned a million who are contributing to this initiative in some way. There'd be very few of those who think that the money they're giving and what they know it's doing, that they don't feel it isn't worth it.
We give this simple example of the Vitamin A capsules. Really a Canadian innovation. Two capsules, two cents each. Four cents a year for a child, reduces mortality by 25 per cent. Whose budget is so tight that they can't see it in their hearts why that would not be worthwhile to do?Report Typo/Error

I am a general contractor and a practical thinker. It is not logical to me that the Egyptian pyramids were tombs. First of all, a structure of any kind makes a statement about the owner, so why would the ancient pharaohs, being the wealthiest, most powerful people in the world at that time, build their tombs alike? I think their tombs would be different. The pharaohs all had their own architects and engineers, yet all the Egyptian pyramids are similar in design, and all were constructed of the same materials. The entrances are all the same; they all have the same descending passageways at approximately 26-degree angles; and all the passageways are less than 4-feet square. They all have very small chambers, wells and deep shafts, and they all were constructed, approximately 80 of them, along the Nile River, with underground shafts and above-ground causeways connecting them to the Nile. Why?
According to several serious word-origin specialists, the literal translation for pyramid is "fire in the middle" and this corresponds most to what my research has led me to believe the pyramids were built to do. I have spent years studying the structure, location, history and artifacts of the Egyptian pyramids, and I am more convinced than ever that the ancient Egyptians used the pyramids to create a unique form of energy. By paying special attention to celestial events, the ancients could have used natural forces like static electricity, the Earth's magnetic field, and lightning to combine electricity with water.
Reports by ancient historians indicate that workers at the pyramids could work all day taking no other nourishment than "water from the Nile." I believe that the Nile waters could have been energized. Once processed through the pyramidal chambers, the Nile waters could have become a new form of water I call Earthmilk. My research points to the possibility that Earthmilk gave off light and heat, and was an elixir for energizing the body. Earthmilk could be stored and stabilized in special vessels. Once the energy was used, it dissipated back into the environment with no ill effects. Water is the most versatile substance in nature. We know it as a gas, a liquid and a solid, but Earthmilk was a fourth form of water-energized water.
I will take you on a picture journey through the Cheops pyramid and other pyramids in Egypt. I will show you why they were not tombs, over and above the fact that they were never found to contain mummies, treasure, or even decorations on the walls, which are characteristic of all royal Egyptian tombs.
I can show how the Egyptian pyramids were originally built along the banks of the Nile even though the Nile is far away today. In the 1950s a dam was built in Aswan, Egypt, and it redirected the River's flow, but maps of the area show where it used to be, and in every case the pyramids were right alongside.
I will show you the direct underground connections from the pyramids to the Nile. In fact, all the Egyptian pyramid complexes are riddled with wells, shafts and huge cut holes that interconnect underground. In 1978 I led a study group to Cairo with two professional photographers, a mineralogist and several aides. We took over 3,000 photographs and examined about 100 mineral samples. I returned in 2006 for more photos and verification of previous information. There is an underground chamber the size of an auditorium a hundred feet below the pyramids on the Giza plateau, and a 7-foot-wide rectangular channel hundreds of feet long which once received water from the Nile to fill the chamber. We can also prove that water coursed through the pyramids. In my studies of the Cheops pyramid, I can show how it could have been used to electrify water as well. In modern-day terms I would call it a type of gigantic, closed-cycle chemical laser.

[Updated 10/28: Banks appear to be caving left and right on adding additional debit card fees following the backlash on Bank of America. This editor still plans to leave Bank of America, because, people, please.]
[Editor's Note: Ruh-roh. Looks like Bank of America finally took its frustration about caps on swipe fees out on the little guy. And we saw it coming months ago. Here's my post from June 28 -- looks like that only took three months.
Guess what? New fees are coming. Let's look at the list of checking account fees already possible at my own bank, Bank of America.
Back in April, BlogHer Contributing Editor Wellheeled wrote about the two sides battling it out in Congress over swipe fees -- the small percentage that retailers pay every time you use your debit card. She wrote:
Both sides have hired lobbyists and written letters to Congress to advocate for their position. If these fees were slashed as the merchants want:
- Small business could prosper. Lower fees will help merchants grow their business and have more money for hiring and investments.
- Small banks and credit unions will lose a big source of their revenue and may even fail.
- The consumer could lose perks such as free checking accounts as banks try to make up for the lost source of revenue.
- If debit card fees are lower than credit card fees, merchants might encourage consumers to make purchases with debit.
Earlier this month, the Senate rejected an amendment to delay some changes to reform, according to Nation's Restaurant News. Apparently, restaurants and other retailers were really excited about this because it means the fees per transaction can be capped and controlled.
With banks holding assets of less than $10 billion exempted from the swipe fee reform, we're talking about the big dogs here. My cynical side knows they're not going to take a huge reduction like that in stride.
The Washington Post notes the reduction in income from swipe fees for big banks could be nearly 70 percent.

Guess what? New fees are coming. Let's look at the list of checking account fees already possible at my own bank, Bank of America. The list includes: overdraft item fee, extended overdrawn balance charge, overdraft protection transfer fee, non-suffient funds fee, foreign ATM fee, check enclosure fee, check image service fee, stop payment fee, late fee, returned item fee. I found out the hard way I can't even take money out of my savings account more than three times a month. Of course, when I went to look at its competitor Citibank, I couldn't even find a complete list of Citibank checking account fees. And since Chase doesn't offer checking in my ZIP code, I couldn't find their list of fees, either. Sneaky, sneaky. My least favorite bank, Capital One (full disclosure: the one that enticed me to make a balance transfer then immediately cut my credit line to exactly that amount and raised my interest rate -- I petitioned to have the account basically suspended to freeze the interest rate, which did work) says they have no fees! Only a list of Capital One special use charges.
And, of course, banks are testing new fees. From Susanna Kim at ABC News:
A Bank of America spokesperson said today, customers will not be able to avoid a monthly service fee in the new "Essentials" account, even if they maintain a minimum balance amount or by using direct deposits.
"Many of our customers choose to have a monthly fee. They like that predictability," said Susan Faulkner, Bank of America Deposits and Card Product Executive, during a press conference today.
So. What's the best thing to do? I have no idea. Do you?

The reason that water balloons are a good idea (in addition to being a lot of fun) is that you don't need a special plane to haul them around. You just need any plane with a cargo door capable of lifting stuff. The balloons (really just 250 gallon plastic bags) are filled up on the ground inside reinforced cardboard boxes to keep them stable, and then hauled off to the fire but whatever planes you have handy and shoved out the door. When they hit the airstream, the boxes and bags disintegrate, and the effect is basically the same as if you'd had a tanker aircraft dump a bunch of water instead.
If you're worried about some poor little baby animal trying to eat the shredded plastic bag for some reason, you should remember that it's being dropped DIRECTLY ON TO A FOREST FIRE, and even if it wasn't, everything's made to be biodegradable and environmentally friendly and all that.
Boeing's Phantom Works has been working on PCADS (Precision Container Aerial Delivery System) for several years now, but it's just about ready for deployment, after a little bit of extra testing including a C-17 dropping 40 PCADS water balloons all at once, amounting to a record-setting 10,000 gallons of water.

CN Rail, union seek arbitration after talks fail
TORONTO (Reuters) - Canadian National Railway Co and the union representing 1,700 locomotive engineers will submit unresolved wage and benefits issues to binding arbitration after talks failed to yield a deal, the company said on Sunday.
Canada's largest railway resumed labor talks with the Teamsters union on December 3 after a brief strike. The company and union had agreed to put outstanding issues to binding arbitration if no agreement was reached.
CN said talks ended on Saturday without a settlement.
"The federal minister of labor will now appoint an arbitrator, who will have 90 days following his or her appointment to report to the minister with a final decision on a new collective agreement," the company said in a statement.
"Nothing precludes CN or the (union) from agreeing to further negotiations once the arbitration process starts."
The railway said no further strike action is permitted under the dispute resolution mechanism, nor can CN lock out the union.
Engineers went on strike after CN unilaterally imposed a 1.5 percent wage increase and raised their monthly mileage cap to 4,300 miles from 3,800 after 14 months of negotiation failed to produce a new contract.
Under a deal to end the strike, CN agreed to roll back the imposed monthly mileage cap and wage increase.
The engineers' last contract expired December 31 2008. The dispute does not affect CN engineers in the United States, northern Alberta and northern Quebec.

NEW ARTIST SPOT LIGHT: Leftside "Cry Fi Yuh/Button Down" [VIDEO]
NEW ARTIST SPOT LIGHT Leftside_ Cry Fi Yuh/Button Down
He describes his music as 'world music'. In a nutshell, dancehall/reggae artiste, musician, disc jock and producer Craig 'Leftside' Parks is a talented artiste whose music crosses barriers and transcends to higher decibels.
There's enough proof and testimony to this musical connoisseur. Not only has he scored big as a producer (having produced tracks for some of dancehall's biggest names) but he has also topped the charts as a recording artiste. An astute and well rounded individual, he also plays the drums and keyboards.
Asked what sets him apart from the overcrowded musical landscape, Leftside was quick to point out his unique sound.
"My sound is very unique but still very club friendly and everyone can relate to that. I make sure, while i am making a track that it gets everybody moving on the first listening encounter. It is a formula that has been limited in today's dancehall', Leftside shared.
The son of veteran Jamaican musician Lloyd Parks (think Lloyd Parks and We the People Band), Leftside who also adopted the Mr. Evil moniker has done stints in dancehall veteran Bounty Killer's touring band. As a disc jock, he has toured with international dancehall sensation Sean Paul.
Leftside who attended Kingston's Ardenne High School was bitten by the music bug while he was still a youngster. While attending high school he played with an up and coming band called Duplicate which he formed with his brothers and sisters. He would later join his father's band and worked the stage alongside popular acts including the late Dennis Brown and Gregory Isaacs, John Holt and rhythm and blues acts including the Main Ingredient.
"Yeah man, the resume is very good', Leftside confided.
While working as a disc jock with the Syndicate sound system, he earned the nickname 'Leftside'. Fellow disc jocks Zachary Harding and Arif Cooper noticed that Parks would 'cut and scratch' using his left hand and began to call him 'Leftside'.
"My left hand does everything, and I was better at scratching on the left side", he noted.
Teaming with high school friend Matthew 'Esco' Thompson, they later started their own sound under the name Leftside & Esco. They soon distinguished themselves by the strength of their innovative "dubplate specials," exclusive self-produced recordings that could be heard only on their sound.
"We built riddims for the sound, and then would write the dub for the artist," Leftside explained. "That created a huge difference in the sound system era. We got a lot of recognition for that, until we started to record our own songs."
The duo released their debut recording 'Passa Thing' which was well received by industry insiders but it wasn't until they dropped the single 'Tuck In Yuh Belly' in 2005 that they gained national and international recognition.
'Tuck In Yuh Belly' spent multiple weeks at the top of the music charts in Jamaica, New York, South Florida, Trinidad and Canada. Subsequent hits included Whine Up Pon Har and Stay Far.
Tuck In Yuh Belly was featured on the inescapable Throwback Giggy rhythm project which the duo produced. It included songs from Tami Chynn, Busy Signal, Vybz Kartel, Buju Banton and Wayne Marshall among others.
On the production side, Parks has collaborated on the popular Chiney Gal, Double Jeopardy and Martial Arts rhythm projects. He and Esco would later join the Martial Arts band which backed top acts of the day including Bounty Killer and Wayne Marshall among others.
Along with Esco, he established the Pacemakers label in 2001 and the hits as producers and artistes flowed like fine wine. But Leftside continued working with other labels as well. He produced albums for the likes of Sizzla, Bounty Killer, Wayne Wonder and Sean Paul among others. He also contributed to hit rhythms and singles such as Elephant Man's Billboard charting hits Pon Di River Pon Di Bank, and Signal Di Plane.
In 2007 Leftside released the track More Punany under the moniker Mr. Evil and the song became a hit not only in Jamaica but stateside. It topped the dancehall chart in Italy and picked up rotation on New York's influential urban station Hot 97FM. On the strength of that single, Leftside signed a deal with New York based Sequence Records which saw the release of his debut solo album in 2008.
He is committed to working with and exposing new and up and coming talent. The formation of his Keep Left Records is testimony to this. Keida and Syon are just some of the acts whom he has been working with on the label.
The artiste pointed out that if music hadn't worked out for him, professional basketball or computer engineering would have been the career choice.
He cites charting on MTV Urban charts in Germany as a major career achievement. Songs including Supermodel and Want Yuh Body remix with Sean Paul have also opened doors for him on the European market.
As of 2013, Leftside has released the songs Cupid Arrow (featuring newcomer G-Anna) on his Keep Left Records label; Gorilla Foot (Tuck In Yuh Foot); and the rhythm project Bong Diggy Bang which features songs from himself as well as Konshens, G-Anna, Sanjay and Busy Signal.
He also worked on a house music compilation with New York based Ultra Records (which he is signed to). Major Lazer and Skrillex are some of the producers who worked on that project for which a release date is yet to be revealed.

Wedding day
As I saw Cora walk up the aisle,I felt a swell in my heart. Her white dress shimmering, clingy not tight, and the train drifting behind her. She looked more radiant than I'd ever seen.
Then her face changed, she morphed into Agrona. "NO!" I shouted. She laughed, filling the church with the sound. "Where is Cora?" I asked, sounding more scared than I intended. Another laugh. "You can't stay here forever, I still need you." She said silkily. I stared at her like she was crazy. "I won't go without Cora." I said. "You'll go when and with whom I tell you too." She looked down upon us. "Not without my daughter, or before their wedding." Heads turned as Cora's father walked in. Agrona pulled a face, she knows she has to. "I'll be back tonight. Say your goodbyes." Then she smiled. "I'll be back after the funeral." I looked quizzical at her. Her hand flung from her side and a shot of light crackled into Cora's father. "FATHER!" Cora ran down the church. Where'd she come from? Tears falling down her cheeks she flung herself at him. "My daughter," He croaked. "Stay with him, he knows the place you are going. He'll look after you. Freddie," He called me over. "Protect her. Cherish her." I bowed my head. "I will sir." Cora was weeping and holding her fathers hand, till he moved his hand to under her chin so she looked at him. "You are so like your mother." Cora smiled ever so slightly through her tears and choked a sob back as he died. "Shall we?" Cora had stood up and was guestering to walk up the aisle. "If you'll still have me." I replied.
Wedded and buried. Agrona kept to her word. We went without a fuss, holding hands we ended up where I began.
In the cemetery, next to James' grave. And guess who was walking towards us.
Erin, eyes wide. Not believing. Cora broke the silence. "Freddie, where am I?"
Turning in front of her, blocking Erin, I go to tell her. But behind me, my parents.

There is not much of information available about Shamshiri's Journalism practice except articles that he has written for different websites and papers. i.e. "One way street - Dialogue among civilizations or clash of civilizations?",[4] "Fariborz Shamshiri, Iranain Blogger: I am not sure Iran is running! I would say it is dying",[5] "Iranian Protesters Tortured in Prison"[6] about torturing prisoners in aftermath of post-election protests in 2009 and one of his recent articles "Welcome to Islamic Republic of Sweden".[7]
Blogging & Censorship[edit]
Shamshiri explains his early blogging experience and censorship of his blogs:[8]
I set up my first blog in Persianblog in 2004 and later wrote in my second blog in Blogfa, both are Persian language blogging systems. Authorities blocked both of my blogs and later they deleted them. I wasn't surprised because basically I was passed all red lines by criticizing clergies, their politics, human rights violations, religion and the whole shebang thing. I stopped blogging for awhile [sic] but later I decided to move on and write in Blogger.com that no one might delete my blog for its contents and at the same time I decided to write in English. I had other reasons to write in English language, probably I will discuss it sometime in future.
Later he moved to Mideast Youth[9] and then he titled his new blog Rotten Gods but it was soon blocked (or filtered) by Iranian government:[8]
I chose "Rotten Gods" for this blog because Gods are rotten and only imaginary fantasies that some humans came with it but as you might know, this didn't sit well with Islamic Iran authorities so they have blocked it since the early days of this blog. So my fellow Iranian audience use proxy softwares [sic] and other tools in order to reach out to this blog and other blocked blogs.
A Persian-English forum launched by Freedom House defined Rotten Gods blog as:[10]
This blog focuses on discussing human rights, covering everything from public stonings and floggings to women's rights in sports.
In April 2008 he founded, Iranians' Blogs a directory of English blogs written by Iranians inside and outside of Iran.[11][12]
About Iranians' Blogs he says:[13]
This directory is an ongoing effort to showcase Iranian's English blogs and bloggers from Iran.
Since July 2008 he started writing in Amnesty International blogs about Human Rights violation in Iran. He called this blog Rotten Gods too.[14]
Plight of Iranian Bloggers[edit]
Fariborz reported on the unfortunate situation of bloggers in the Islamic Republic of Iran, noting execution of Yaghoob Mehrnehad and death of Omidreza Mirsayafi.
Omidreza Mirsayafi was a 28-year-old blogger who found dead in Evin prison. He wrote:[15]
Blogging is the last resort for people to express themselves
Yaghoob Mehrnehad (Mirnehad) was Iranian journalist blogger who was executed by Iranian authorities on the charges of terrorism, enemy of God (Mohareb) and corrupt on earth (Mofsed-e-filarz). While some Iranian bloggers were trying to justify execution of Yaghoob Mehrnehad (Mirnehad), Fariborz defended him as a blogger and pointed out the great danger of Islamic Fascism in Iran. [16] [17][18]
In December 2007, he founded Stop torturing us, a blog to watch the situation of torturing in Iran.[19] "Stop torturing us" covers systematic torture in Iran.[10]
Atheism advocacy[edit]
In May 2008 he founded Iranian Atheist but it wasn't active until recently.[20]
In September 2008, he founded Persian Atheist to use reason and science to tackle religious issues and Islamic ideology that he believes, are the root cause of our problems in Iran.[21] In Persian Atheist, he writes about human evolution [22][23] and he translated articles and wrote introduction about scientific topics related to our understanding of nature and animals, for instance "Are animals devoid from conscience and understanding?"[24] In an article titled "Before Islam, Allah was the name of an idol"[25] he researched about history of Allah's name before it called God of Islam and Arabian mythology.
Although in "Iranian Atheist" he argues that it is too dangerous for Iranian atheists to come out of closet[26] but he doesn't come short on asking Iranians that they shouldn't respect religions and beliefs because basically they have failed humans too, only basic ethical human values worth respect.[27] He merely asks that should we draw a line? and accept the fact that not every belief worth our attention and instead we should focus on good values that makes us better family, friend, neighbor and thus human.
He has written a detailed article about Apostasy in Iran[28] and its deadly punishments.
Death threats[edit]
In an interview he stated that he has been receiving death threats since he strongly criticized Islamic republic of Iran's establishment, Sharia law and Islamic barbaric rules.[2]
In response to death threats that are all over in his comment sections[29] of some of his writings he wrote:[30]
It seems couple of posts on this blog haven't sit well with Islamists and they took it personally, and we all know what happens then. I guess I have to clarify my position once again. I do not restrain myself because you think my thoughts are disrespectful to your religion, faith or whatever you believe in. I think the only valuable things that we, humans have are our free thoughts and reason and I will not let you take away that too.
Committee to Protect Bloggers[31] has put together a full report about these threats to Fariborz's life:[32][33][34]
One electronic threat was that someone would "cut his throat." In another message they wrote "the death is coming to you soon soon." He says he still doesn't know who send these messages (they're all anonymous), but he suspects — based on past experience — range from Basij militia, Revolutionary Guards Corps Cyber Affairs Division and/or some mullahs or students of seminary schools.
Fariborz said: "this is not the first time I am receiving this kind of threats but this is getting out of hand." He keeps multiple blogs in English and Persian language. "I have been writing for many years, it seems I made more enemies in radical camp both inside and outside of Iran."
"In order to shut me down, they have targeted me with malicious death threat campaign for sometime," Fariborz wrote in one post. Later, he said, after examining the IP addresses of the senders, "I think threats to my life comes from Iran's intelligence agents; it is organized and systematic."
Curt Hopkins from ReadWriteWeb[35] mentioned death threats to Fariborz's life and wrote: "Iran's lucky to have him. And seriously. Maybe he'll have to explain himself before G-d, but he sure as hell shouldn't have to do so before a mob of sloe-eyed nitwits."[36]
Israel's Channel 10 news program presented a piece about Fariborz blogs and the threats to his life that comes from radical Muslim groups. It said that he has gone hiding and he lives in total anonymity. This program was broadcast on 26 August 2010.

Report: Leeds 2 Rovers 1
Rovers are still searching for their first win of the season after going down 2-1 to Leeds United in dramatic fashion at Elland Road.
After a first half that was only notable for the weather conditions, the game sprang into life in the final half hour.
There had been little between the two sides until substitute Chris Wood scored four minutes after his introduction, the Kiwi tapping home a centre from Hadi Sacko from close-range.
But like Saturday, Rovers responded quickly, Marvin Emnes blasting his first goal for the club in emphatic fashion with 13 minutes remaining.
The Lancashire side pressed for a winner with Robert Green denying Emnes and Sam Gallagher in quick succession. They would prove to be pivotal saves as Leeds claimed all three points mere seconds later when Kyle Bartley headed in Alex Mowatt's free-kick to leave Rovers at the bottom of the table.
Before the game Owen Coyle made just the one change from the side that drew with Queens Park Rangers on Saturday.
With Charlie Mulgrew sidelined with a calf strain, his place in midfield, like at Loftus Road, was taken by Corry Evans.
The hosts made three changes following their weekend loss at the hands of Huddersfield. Eunan O'Kane, Stuart Dallas and Pablo Hernandez coming in for Chris Wood, Kalvin Phillips and Alex Mowatt.
Rovers scored after 17 seconds on their previous visit to Elland Road, but the only early drama on this occasion was when Robert Green fouled Sam Gallagher outside his area after six minutes.
The Rovers striker beat the Leeds keeper to the ball before being clattered to the ground. The former England man perhaps fortunate to be only shown a yellow card by referee James Adcock.
That lead to a five minute break as both players received treatment to head injuries. When play eventually resumed Ben Marshall's free-kick came out to Craig Conway who struck well on the half-volley but over the bar.
O'Kane saw an effort clear the crossbar from distance, before Derrick Williams made an important tackle to thwart Hadi Sacko in front of goal.
But as the weather worsened, with heavy rain and repeated bursts of thunder and lightning, there was little in the way of goalmouth opportunities from either side as the half ended goalless.
Both sides looked to make an early impression as the teams returned at the start of the second half.
Marshall was the first to try his luck from distance, his 20-yard daisy-cutter flashing just past the post.
Sacko then saw a shot deflect over his own bar by Tommie Hoban, before Stuart Dallas had a near post effort claimed by Steele.
Hope Akpan was next with an effort at goal but his dipping half-volley didn't trouble Rob Green's goal.
But as the half wore on it was the Whites who were slowly building up a head of steam with Rovers unable to get any meaningful possession.
A Hernandez corner picked out Kyle Bartley, but his header bounced up and over the bar.
Both sides made striking changes with Marvin Emnes on for Danny Graham, whilst Chris Wood replaced Marcus Antonsson. And it was New Zealander Wood who would put the home side in front on 65 minutes.
Sacko had shown a quick turn of pace all evening and as he raced into the area, he's pass across the six-yard box was tapped home by Wood.
Rovers lost Tommie Hoban through injury, but the visitors brushed off that disappointment by grabbing a sensational equaliser 13 minutes from time.
There seemed little on as Emnes picked the ball up 20-yards out, but the Dutch forward smashed an unstoppable drive into the back of the net for his first Rovers goal.
Suddenly it was all Rovers, Emnes couldn't connect in front of goal after Gallagher had nodded on Jason Lowe's centre, then Green made two vital saves to keep the visitors at bay.
Emnes went searching his second of the game when he collected a pass from Marshall, but Green saved with his chest, Gallagher showed great acrobatics to try and hook home the rebound, but the Leeds keeper pulled off an unbelievable reaction save.
They would prove to be pivotal as Leeds went up the other end to score the goal that would see them claim a first home win of the season.
After sub Darragh Lenihan was adjudged to have fouled Sacko on the far side. Alex Mowatt delivered the free-kick into the box to where Bartley rose highest to head home.
Rovers were given hope when seven additional minutes were shown, and although they delivered ball after ball into the Leeds box, the home side held on to claim the victory and leave Owen Coyles men still searching for theirs.
Green, Ayling, Bartley, Antonsson (sub Wood 61 mins), O'Kane (sub Mowatt 83 mins), Dallas, Jansson, Hernandez, Taylor, Sacko, Bridcutt (sub Phillips 49 mins).
Subs not used: Silvestri (GK), Cooper, Doukara, Coyle.
Goals: Wood 65 mins, Bartley 87 mins.
Booked: Green 6 mins, Sacko 44 mins, Ayling 79 mins.
Steele, Lowe (c), Greer, Hoban (sub Lenihan 75 mins), Williams, Evans, Conway, Akpan (sub Feeney 71 mins), Marshall, Gallagher, Graham (sub Emnes 61 mins).
Subs not used: Raya (GK), Byrne, Samuelsen, Guthrie.
Goals: Emnes 77 mins.
Booked: Greer 26 mins, Evans 81 mins, Marshall 90+8 mins.

Surgery preparation instructions
In order to ensure safe and high-quality treatment, we carefully assess your physical and general condition as well as any potential risk factors prior to your operation. Apart from the surgeon him- or herself, a pain relief specialist (anaesthesiologist) and a team of nurses will also take part in the preparation and offer guidance. It is important that you closely follow the instructions you are given concerning preparations, the operation itself and postoperative treatment.
Before the operation
A nurse will call you a few days prior to the operation to go through the timetable and instruct you on how to prepare. You should fill in the patient information form before you get the call. You can bring the form to one of your preoperative appointments or fill it in electronically here. The network connection is protected.
The details surrounding billing and payment should be agreed upon in good time. If your insurance company is to be billed, you need to get an approved promissory note from them before the operation. Diacor has service agreements with Folksam, If (including Kaleva and Mandatum), LähiTapiola (including Turva), POP Vakuutus and Vektor. If you do not have a promissory note, or if you pay for the procedure yourself, the bill will be sent to you after the procedure. If you want more information on insurance and billing, you are welcome to call us on 09 7750 8180 or send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com
You can also open a Diacor Hoitotili (Diacor Healthcare Account) free of charge. This way, you get opportunities for flexible payment.
Laboratory tests
If your physician has prescribed lab tests, X-rays or other tests, you should have these taken before you come to the hospital. All patients over 60 will undergo an ECG examination prior to surgery. An ECG performed within six months prior to the operation is usually sufficient, as long as the results are available.
If you have been treated in a hospital or other healthcare facility in Finland or abroad during the last six (6) months, you need to be tested for MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or hospital-acquired infection) five days before the surgery is due do take place. The test can be taken in our laboratory.
If you take regular medication, you physician will advise you on whether you can take it on the day of the surgery. Anti-inflammatory medication should not be taken unless the physician recommends it, as it can increase bleeding. The use of diabetes medication and blood thinners (such as Aspirin and Marevan) should also be discussed with the physician or anaesthesiologist.
Previous treatment information and changes in health status
If you have previously been treated somewhere other than at Diacor, you should bring information about the treatment you have received as well as any surgical case reports. We will also need the results from any lab tests, X-rays, MRI scans, ECGs, etc. that have been taken elsewhere, as well as your blood group card and the packaging of any medication you use.
Food and drink
On the day before the procedure, you can eat and drink normally. You should abstain from food for 6 hours before you sign in at the hospital. If the operation is due to take place in the afternoon or evening, you can eat a light breakfast. You can drink 2 dl of water two hours before you are due to sign in at the hospital.
The day of surgery
When you schedule your operation, you will be told what time you should sign in at the hospital reception desk. The time quoted on your referral is the time when you should sign in. Some operations take longer than planned, so you might have to wait for your operation for up to a couple of hours. The hospital has Wi-Fi, which you can use free of charge. You can also use your phone normally.
Postoperative care and leaving the hospital
After your operation you will be given detailed home care instructions, and the necessary follow-up appointments will be scheduled. You will also be given individual guidance on rehabilitation by our physiotherapist. If necessary, he or she will also offer advice prior to the operation.
In the evening after the operation, you can eat a light meal. The following day, you can eat or drink normally unless you have been instructed otherwise. You should refrain from driving, drinking alcohol and taking sedatives for 24 hours following the operation.
If you need to stay the night in the hospital, the price per night is €400. If you are a Loyal Customer, you get a 50% discount. Learn more about our Loyal Customer benefits here.
A patient who is to be discharged the same day must be picked up from the hospital by a responsible adult, who must also stay with the patient during the following night. We recommend that the family member or friend who comes to pick up the patient uses the parking garage of Kauppakeskus Ruoholahti. The parking garage is open every day between 6am and 10pm and can be accessed from Porkkalankatu or Länsisatamankatu or via the exit from the Länsiväylä motorway. There is a lift directly from the parking garage to the hospital.
We offer free parking for our Loyal Customers and for the parents or guardians of our young patients in the parking garage in Ruoholahti.
Rescheduling or cancelling an operation

If you wish, they can also put you in contact with the anaesthesiologist.

The mighty fall quickly when tournament time comes around. With the Big East tournament now heading into the semifinals, the University of Connecticut won't be around contending for the conference title. Continuing a strong upset run in the postseason, the Providence Friars took care of the Huskies in a 1-0 double-overtime contest. Junior Matt Marcin grabbed the game's only goal, sending the fifth-seeded Friars into the semis.
The Friars are joined in the semifinals by St. John's, who easily defeated Rutgers by a 3-0 score. The Red Storm have bounced back nicely and are hitting a decent run of form, one that could be good enough to secure a NCAA tournament bid.
It wasn't as easy for the remaining two schools that went through. Notre Dame quickly fell behind 2-0 against South Florida in the 23rd minute. Senior Forward Bright Dike pulled one back for the Irish before the interval, who then left it late, getting an 83rd minute equalizer. After two goal-less overtimes, the Irish knocked home all five penalty kicks to advance to the semifinals when USF's Sebastian Thuriere could only connect with the crossbar.
Rounding out the final four is No. 5 Louisville, who also needed penalty kicks to dispatch DePaul. The two sides were all square at 1-1 after two overtimes, with the Cardinals taking the last semifinal spot with a 3-2 advantage from the spot.
What do you think of the results? Surprised to see UConn knocked out? Anyone going to stop Louisville?
Share your thoughts below.
IVES, who would you rate as the top ten men soccer players currently in the NCAA?
Jersey Guy in Rhody
YEEEEEAAAAHHHHH Go Friars!
Go Friars!!!! Any season, any sport, IT IS GREAT TO BEAT Uconn!!!
Ives, do you have any info on the national tourney?
Soccer! Steve
This one hurt.
I watched USF go up 2 – 0 in Notre Dame. Our central mid and team captain got red card in the first half and the Irish just attacked after that. I'm really impressed with USF's defense, they held off the relentless ND attack.
That missed PK hurt bad. We should have one that game on a perfect golden goal opportunity in the 2nd OT but it was like the goal had a force field around it.
