Coping with Arthritis
Sensational Seniors
Arthritis is now one of the most chronic health problems we face and is also the number one cause of limitation in movement, according to the Arthritis Foundation. Arthritis is prevalent in those over 65 with one-third in this age category suffering from it, although it does affect people of all ages.
Recognizing common symptoms of arthritis and learning to differentiate between myths and facts is essential for everyone because the chances of you developing it or someone you love being stricken are high. For those who already have arthritis, it is important to learn how to manage your symptoms.
Arthritis comes in more than 100 different forms. The specific causes for most forms are not yet known, making it difficult to know how one could prevent being afflicted with it. The most common symptoms include joint pain, inability to move joints normally and swelling.
Included in these more than 100 forms of arthritis are the three most common; osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage that covers the ends of bones deteriorates, causing pain loss of movement as bones begins to rub against each other. Fibromylagia is widespread pain afflicting muscles and attachments to the bone. The exact cause of fibromylagia is unknown, but research now shows decreased blood flow and certain viruses may be the culprits that trigger the disease. Rheumatoid arthritis is when a joint's lining becomes inflamed, resulting in deterioration of the joint, pain and limited movement.
Common belief also seems to be, among many, that nothing can be done about arthritis. This is another myth. There are a variety of medications that have been introduced to the market within the last year to treat various types of arthritis. It is critical that one gets an early and accurate diagnosis to minimize the affects of arthritis due to the fact that the majority of joint damage occurs within the first two years of disease onset.
As stated earlier, it is not known how one can prevent arthritis but those who do have the affliction can take part in a treatment plan tailored to meet their individual needs. The first step is to make sure you've gotten a proper and correct diagnosis. A doctor can diagnose arthritis based on the overall pattern of symptoms, medical history, physical exam, x-rays and lab tests.
Cat's Claw for Arthritis?
This valuable herb regulates normal blood pressure, balances cholesterol, relaxes blood vessel walls and opens up peripheral circulation making it helpful for the skin and joints. Due to possible anti-inflammatory effects, cat's claw may help to relieve pain of arthritis. It may also be useful for lowering blood pressure and treating some cancers. Amounts to use are not well defined although common doses in clinical trials have been 100 mg per day for osteoarthritis and 60 mg per day for rheumatoid arthritis. Some studies have used higher doses (350 mg to 500 mg per day).
Arthritis causes anxiety and weakness. For this there are a variety of techniques people can use to reduce the impact of. Relaxation exercises done on a regular basis are key elements, as is taking part in some exercise daily. One must find a balance of rest and activity. If you like swimming, water exercise is an extremely beneficial way to exercise the joints and muscles. The water supports the joints to encourage free movement while providing resistance to help build muscle strength. Water massage therapy is beneficial for many suffering from arthritis. Jet nozzles release warm water and air, massaging the body and helping to relax tight muscles.
In addition to balancing rest and activity, there are other techniques used to manage arthritis. These include planning ahead making work easier, maintaining proper body posture and practicing joint protection techniques.
The Nutritional Aspects
Patients treated for heart disease have been found to have a reduction in the severity of pain and swelling in their arthritic joints due to the nutritional therapy given to them to treat their heart disease. This observation led to further review of nutrition and arthritis and how to use nutrition to reduce the symptoms. As a result, a nutrition plan was laid out with eating guidelines and nutritional supplementation designed specifically to ease the pain and inflammation of arthritic joints.
They are the exact same strategies designed to help reduce the risk of heart disease! You can "kill two birds with one stone", so to speak. Try the following tips for eight weeks to see if it helps reduce symptoms, or share it with some you know and love who is afflicted with arthritis.
Raise blood pH.
Lower blood pH promotes formation of crystals in joints, which leads to arthritis. Every day, have a glass of carrot, wheat grass or cherry juice. The alkalizing effect on the blood helps to raise your blood pH. Avoid orange juice, grapefruit juice and other citrus juices as well as tomatoes, potatoes and eggplant. These acidifying foods lower blood pH.
Eat chlorophyll.
Chlorophyll helps remove excess heavy metals from the joints. Heavy metal atoms cause accumulation of free radicals, highly reactive compounds that damage the joints. Be sure to drink a glass of green barley, use organic barley powder, chlorella or frozen wheat grass every day. Each is rich in green pigment.
Eat cayenne and garlic.
Garlic stimulates the immune system, which supports healing. Garlic also contains the antioxidant mineral selenium. It helps control free radical buildup. Both herbs have an anti-inflammatory effect, helping to reduce swelling and pain. You can take a daily cayenne capsule, but some people get an upset stomach from this. Try it with bread or crackers. If it still bothers you, or you fear it will, do not take it. But do try to use garlic!
Eat omega-3 oils.
Omega-3 is primarily in flaxseed and fish oil and inhibits the production of leukotrienes, natural compounds that stimulate inflammation.
Eat black pepper.
Did you know that black pepper is a common remedy in traditional Chinese medicine? In a 2013 test tube study, researchers pretreated human cartilage cells with black pepper and then zapped the cells with an inflammatory protein. The cells inflammatory activity was inhibited, leading to the conclusion that pepper could be an effective arthritis treatment. Sprinkle black pepper on dinner, using frshly ground whole peppercorns to ensure you get pepper only. Or, try it as a supplement in 10mg capsules. Recommended: Source Naturals Bioperine Black Pepper Fruit Extract .
Experts recommend 1,000-mg. flaxseed oil capsule after each meal. The capsules can be found in any health food store. Another way to boost your omega-3 intake is to eat at least one, preferably two, helpings of fresh fish per week, but not fried!
Drink ginger tea.
In addition to being soothing to the stomach, ginger is a potent anti-inflammatory agent. One cup of ginger tea a day is recommended.
Eat Certo.
Available in any supermarket, this pectin-containing gelatin powder is very effective at reducing swelling in joints. It is unclear, however, just why Certo relieves arthritis, but it is known to. Each day, try to consume on tablespoon (mix it with apple juice or another alkalizing fruit juice to form a soupy gelatin).
Cayenne. Organic Cayenne Pepper anti-inflammatory properties makes it a great herb for arthritis, diabetes, psoriasis and herpes related nerve damage.
Curry contains powerful antioxidants that may reduce pain and inflammation for arthritis sufferers.
Garlic appears to relieve some forms of arthritis pain. The sulfur contained in this product has been reported to benefit sufferers.
Grapes also contain boron and their skins contain a compound that blocks the inflammation that causes arthritis.
Milk is good for you. You've probably heard this since you were a child. It is the calcium in milk that helps keep our bones strong and healthy as we age. Combining calcium and magnesium is a powerful aid to slow loss of calcium. It reduces your risk for acquiring osteoporosis. If you're not fond of milk, or are lacose intolerant, try yogurt with acidophilus/probiotics. If you're not lactose intolerant but just don't care for drinking milk, try ice cream or cheese. If none of these work for you, choose calcium tablets.
Nuts, particularly almonds, hazelnuts, and peanuts contain boron, a mineral that keeps bones strong and healthy, thus helping to prevent arthritis.
Turmeric. Embrace a new spice - turmeric. Research suggests it may ease arthritis pain. "Turmeric works along the lines of a prescription COX-2 inhibitor, but with the side effects." - Integrative medicine specialist Robin Miller, MD.
Eat it this way: Stir into side dishes or sprinkle on fish or chicken. Turmeric has a vibrant yellow color and a mild taste. Recommended: Organic Ground Turmeric Root
Take multivitamin supplements.
A combination of antioxidant vitamins is the best way to fight free radicals. Fresh fruit and vegetables are rich in antioxidants but to ensure you get enough, it is best to supplement your diet with multivitamins. Be sure to select an iron-free supplement. Too much iron has been linked to an elevated risk of heart disease.
Choose a supplement with no more than 1 mg of copper (half the government's recommended daily allowance). Your supplement should also include folic acid, vitamin B-6, vitamin D, zinc and calcium as any deficiencies in any of these nutrients can worsen arthritis. Also, the supplement should contain seleniumand vitamin E. Both nutrients are especially good for morning stiffness.
Take coenzyme Q-10 and Quercetin.
Coenzyme Q-10 is a remarkable substance that works to stabilize the membrane of every cell in your body. That prevents cell breakdown in your joints. Quercetin blocks the release of histamines (inflammation-producing chemicals) into the bloodstream. 30mg of coenzyme Q-10 is recommended taken after each meal and 100mg to 500mg of quercetin once a day.
Avoid caffeinated beverages.
Caffeine acts as a diuretic in your body resulting in washing out nutrients, thereby undermining your efforts to eat a healthful, nutrient-rich diet. Coffee, tea and soda, as well as chocolate are to be avoided. Drink decaffeinated forms and avoid chocolate.
Some of the above mentioned products may not appeal to you. Follow what you think you will be comfortable with. Anything you do to help yourself is something and who knows, as we are all uniquely created, one thing or another may give you some relief whereas others may not. Experiment, do what you can and follow your doctors orders at all times! In fact, it wouldn't be a bad idea to present this diet to him or her to be sure it is suitable and healthy for you. Make sure to discuss the supplements with your doctor, also. The best judge will be your body!
The diet was written and created by a highly respected and revered doctor in his field and is given as a guideline to help you work with your body and it's nutrition to reach optimum performance and relief of your arthritic symptoms. I am not qualified to endorse it or disapprove of it, only to share it in hopes you will find some relief.

Catcher Yorvit Torrealba made his season debut with Margarita on Tuesday evening. He went 1-for-3 on Tuesday but was hitless in three trips on Wednesday. Texas recently signed the 32-year-old to a two-year deal worth $6.25 million to become the club's primary backstop.
La Guaira Tiburones designated hitter Max Ramirez (.308/.410/.406) reached base on a single and an intentional walk in six trips to the plate.
Ramirez's club was going up against Andres Blanco's Magallanes Navegantes. The 26-year-old Blanco was 0-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored.
The La Guaira club posted 13 runs on Wednesday morning, and a pair of Rangers prospects played a big hand in the production. Leadoff man and shortstop Renny Osuna (.266/.301/.481) was 2-for-3 with a double, a home run, a walk, and five runs batted in.
The 25-year-old Osuna, who scored three runs, helped guide his club to an eight-run outburst in the third inning with a walk followed by a three-run double. He now has seven doubles, two triples, and two round-trippers in 20 Liga Paralela contests.
Centerfielder David Paisano (.294/.330/.382) singled twice in five trips.
Caracas shortstop Edwin Garcia (.227/.363/.333) raised his average with one single in three at-bats.
First baseman Chris Davis (.250/.341/.550) launched a solo home run to break a scoreless tie in the top of the fourth inning. Overall, the Estrellas Orientales slugger was 1-for-3 with that round-tripper, a walk, and a strikeout. He has 11 extra-base hits (including six homers) in 22 contests.
The Toros del Este collected 18 hits in Wednesday's contest, but left fielder Esteban German had just one single in five at-bats. The veteran speedster did pick up his league-leading 19th stolen base in 21 tries.
Aguilas Cibaenas leadoff man Julio Borbon (.250/.313/.303) had a single and two RBI in five at-bats. Borbon is 5-for-39 (.128) with one walk and 11 punchouts over his last nine contests.
Lefty reliever Zach Phillips gave up a double and a walk in two-thirds of an inning, but he didn't let a run cross the plate.
The 24-year-old has made five appearances with Ponce, giving up four runs on five hits in 3.2 innings. He has walked four and struck out one.
No Rangers appeared on Wednesday.

Who has the power to help immigrants?
Saturday, May 27, 2017
By Don Clemmer OSV Newsweekly "What if every cardinal accompanied an undocumented person who crossed our paths to the deportation hearing?... Read More
"What if every cardinal accompanied an undocumented person who crossed our paths to the deportation hearing? What if every bishop did? Every pastor? Every mayor?"
Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin of Newark, New Jersey, offered that challenge in his May 17 address to the annual World Communications Day gathering sponsored by the Diocese of Brooklyn, New York. His remarks were in reference to the experience he had March 10, when he accompanied Catalino Guerrero, 59, an undocumented grandfather who had lived in the United States for more than 25 years, to his deportation hearing. Guerrero would go on to receive a one-year stay.
The day Cardinal Tobin spoke, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) released data indicating that, during President Donald Trump's first 100 days in office, the agency had arrested more than 41,000 people, a spike of more than 37 percent from the same period in 2016. The largest spike — an increase of 150 percent — was of immigrants with no criminal records.
This is largely the result of two late-January executive orders on border security and interior enforcement implemented by the Department of Homeland Security. Among the changes introduced was the elimination of the prior administration's priority enforcement program and prosecutorial discretion — that is, practices of focusing on certain undocumented immigrants, such as those with records of violent crime, for deportation, while offering stipulations to others, such as having them check in with their local ICE field office regularly.
"Anybody and everybody is a priority — those who are undocumented. Now we've seen that play out already," Michelle Mendez, training and legal support senior attorney for the Catholic Legal Immigration Network Inc. (CLINIC), told Our Sunday Visitor.
"The statistic that's really concerning is we're seeing an increase of removals or deportations of individuals who have what's known as long-term equities here in the United States," Ashley Feasley, director of policy for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' Migration and Refugee Services told OSV. "We're talking about parents of U.S. citizen children who have lived here for many years, who are integrated into their communities." Feasley said such practices are driving increased fear in immigrant communities.
Mendez cites the story of Maribel Trujillo Diaz, 42, a Cincinnati woman who entered the United States from Mexico without documentation in 2002 and who first became known to ICE when her employer was raided in 2007. Her four children are U.S. citizens, and she was an active member of St. Julie Billiart Parish in Hamilton, Ohio. Under the Obama administration, she received a work permit and checked in regularly with ICE.
In March, ICE told her to return in April with a plane ticket to Mexico. She returned the following month with her plane tickets and her pastor, only to be told that, since she had a pending asylum case, she could report back a month later. Two days later, the Wednesday before Holy Week, ICE showed up at her home and took her into custody.
"She wasn't even able to say goodbye to all of her children at that point," Tony Stieritz, director of Catholic social action for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, told OSV. "We felt that was very cruel and unacceptable."
Parishioners, the archdiocese and other faith communities rallied around Trujillo, appealing for mercy because of her lack of criminal background and her contributing role in the community.
"The community itself wants her there, and she has a family that depends upon her being there," said Stieritz. Trujillo's youngest daughter, age 3, suffers from seizures, to which Trujillo is trained to respond.
As Trujillo was moved from detention center to detention center, the Church led rallies in Cincinnati and Columbus, Ohio, and, finally, New Orleans, before she was deported to Mexico City the Wednesday after Easter, April 19.
"We as a community do not benefit from that destabilization," Feasley said of such cases, "and certainly that family unit is torn apart."
"She had no criminal record," said Mendez. "She was dutifully reporting" and, with U.S. citizen family members, should not have been a priority for deportation. Like Guerrero in New Jersey, Trujillo had a prior order of deportation, stemming from the 2007 raid. It's these cases, Mendez said, that are the easiest for the government to process into speedy deportations.
"They're going to rely on that prior order to ship you out," said Mendez. "It's easy to make those people disappear."
In the face of a new reality, CLINIC is "gearing for the worst" by scaling up legal resources.
"We're very much focused on improving the representation in immigration court. At the same time we're also committed to expanding representation for immigrants who are going to be in removal proceedings," Mendez said. This, she added, means training a lot of immigration advocates to become better litigators. "We have court-skills trainings planned for this year. We have a removal defense webinar series."
Connecting immigrants with counsel is another challenge, she said. "A lot of it is usually not knowing where to go, going to the wrong help, or just having no money to get a consultation with a competent attorney."
But if there's a silver lining, Mendez said, it's that many undocumented people are eligible for relief under the law that they don't even know about. "We did a screening clinic here in Baltimore after the election and before the inauguration," she said. "And a lot of those people were eligible for a few things in immigration court." But even then the catch is that people are only eligible for these forms of legal status if they've already been placed in a deportation proceeding and if they meet other conditions such as having been in the country for more than 10 years or having a parent, spouse or child who is a legal resident.
Mendez said most Americans have no idea of the hurdles to legal residency, from the costs associated with visas to the lack of a path to citizenship.
But knowing their rights gives immigrants at least a small measure of power. Francia Elena Benitez-Castaño and her 23-year-old son, Jefferson Taborda, were arrested by ICE in Las Cruces, New Mexico, May 11. Taborda, who came to the United States as a child and now has a degree in criminal justice, was subsequently released. Thanks to a "know your rights" campaign sponsored by the local diocese and Catholic Charities, the family had a plan in place should any of them ever be arrested.
"The local Church and community are rallying for a stay of deportation for Francia, for the sake of her family. They are model members of our community, and it would be a tragedy to break up their family," Bishop Oscar Cantú of Las Cruces, New Mexico, told OSV.
In his Brooklyn address, Cardinal Tobin noted: "Let's be serious. This isn't about border security. This is about being attentive to the reality of people who are already in our communities, most of whom are functioning, even in a marginal shadow existence, and making contributions to communities."
Church leaders agree that those who hold the power of elected office should do more than, as Stieritz put it, "enforce a broken system in broken ways."

Welcome to Animals' Smile
Jessica O'Donoghue and Animals' Smile have been working with animals, from horses to hedgehogs, for the past 29 years which has been an educational journey. My career working with animals began in 1983 with the addition to the family of my first Old English Mastiff (Mastiff) and has expanded to a wide variety of facilities and families throughout New England, New Mexico and Colorado. For a lot of people, their pet is the most important relationship in their life and I respect and honor that relationship. Thank you for welcoming me into your lives and entrusting me to work with your beloved animals.
Sharing your life with an animal is more than just proper manners. It is a multi-layered relationship that involves behavior, the influence of health, environmental factors, and the human element on that behavior.
Dog training, thankfully, has become a more humane way of teaching that encourages the animal, rather than breaking them down through punishment and fear. Dogs do not teach each other that way, nor should we.

TAIPEI (AFP) – With public fears of Chinese influence growing, a slowing economy and a series of food scandals, Taiwan's ruling party is facing a rough ride in the island's biggest ever local elections – seen as a barometer for the 2016 presidential race.
Campaigning is well under way with almost 20,000 candidates contesting a record 11,130 seats, and analysts predict the Beijing-friendly Kuomintang government will take a serious knock.
"The Kuomintang party is very likely to lose ground in the vote, it's just a matter of to what extent," said Tung Chen-yuan, social science professor at Taipei's National Chengchi University.
From mayors of the country's six municipalities to county chiefs, city councillors and village leaders, the elections on November 29 could see new faces at every level of local government.
One Kuomintang candidate for mayor of Tainan cast herself as a "dark horse" against her more popular DPP opponent – by riding a black horse down the city's streets.
Meanwhile an independent candidate for mayor in the city of Kaohsiung stripped to his underpants on stage as he drew his candidate number, shouting, "Naked to meet you, honesty is the best policy."
It was, perhaps, an offbeat nod to allegations of vote buying which have dogged election campaigns in some areas. Government figures say more than 2,400 people are being investigated, both candidates and supporters, mostly in rural locations. Two suspects were detained Friday accused of bribing college students in a county council election.
"The public feels apathetic over the vote, so candidates are resorting to publicity grabbing tactics, rather than focusing on critical issues," said one Kuomintang official, who did not want to be named.

Crazy Wisdom
Share to support
Synopsis: Crazy Wisdom explores the arrival of Tibetan Buddhism in America through the story of Chogyam Trungpa, the brilliant "bad boy of Buddhism" who fled his homeland during the Chinese Communist invasion.
Trungpa arrived in the U.S. in 1970, and legend has it that he said to his students: "Take me to your poets." Trungpa eventually became renowned for translating ancient Buddhist concepts into language and ideas that Westerners could understand, while shattering all preconceived notions about the way an enlightened teacher should behave. Judged harshly by the Tibetan establishment to begin with, Trungpa's teachings are now recognized by Western philosophers and spiritual leaders, including the Dalai Lama, as authentic and profound.
Today, twenty years after his death, Trungpa's name still evokes both admiration and outrage. What made him tick, and just what is "crazy wisdom" anyway? With unprecedented access to Trungpa's inner circle and exclusive never-before-seen archival material, Crazy Wisdom looks at the man and the myths about him, and attempts to set the record straight.

The United States presidential election of 2024 was the 60th quadrennial presidential election. It was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. Incumbent President John Kasich of Ohio was ineligible to seek a third term as president. Instead, Vice President Marco Rubio of Florida and running mate Secretary Of The Treasury Carly Fiorina defeated Democratic Party nominee Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and running mate Former Mayor Rahm Emanuel of Illinois.
The incumbent vice president, Marco Rubio, announced he'd be running for president toward the end of Kasich's final term. Many Republicans endorsed the idea, but others did not. Rubio was challenged by George P. Bush, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul. However he easily defeated them all. Rubio chose Secretary Of The Treasury Carly Fiorina as his his running mate.
Bernie Sanders was happy to announce he'd be running again after his surge in 2016. He narrowly beat Former Ambassador Caroline Kennedy for the nomination. However many feared he may have missed his window and that he wouldn't be as popular this season.
Democratic Nomination
Democratic Candidates
- Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont (Nominee)
- Former Ambassador Caroline Kennedy of Mass.
- Former Governor Howard Dean of Vermont
- Former Governor Andrew Cuomo of New York
- Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York
- Former Mayor Rahm Emanuel of Illinois
Republican Nomination
Republican Candidates
- Vice President Marco Rubio of Florida
- Senator Ted Cruz of Texas
- Governor George P. Bush of Florida
- Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky
- Former Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska
- Former Attorney General Chris Christie
The election was very close with both candidates being very popular. However, by campaigning on Kasich's popularity, and by pointing out that Sanders was too old, Rubio won the election. This was the first election when a Latino was elected president, and the first where a female was elected Vice President.

Netflix: Q4 2013 Earnings Preview
Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) stock has been a front-runner among the winners of 2013. The stock has gained a whopping 312% last year, leading the list of last year's highest gaining internet stocks. The stock has seen a 10% pullback in price since January 1st, 2014. The stock saw a significant fall of 2% in the regular trading session on Jan 15th, 2014, following the news of US court of appeals decision to overthrow the FCC's (federal communications committee) net neutrality regulation. If you are a long term Netflix investor, now would be the right time to step back and take a relook at your Netflix investment. Does the latest pullback present an entry point for the long term investor or is it just the beginning of a bigger correction, the Netflix stock price having run-up alarmingly in the last year? Today we shall cover the various facts which will impact the company's fundamentals over the coming quarters and their implications for an investor.
Netflix: 2013 performance
The last year saw significant movements at Netflix, be it in the fundamentals of the company or its stock price. We would like to highlight the company's yearly performance in 2013 before moving on to our expectations in 2014. The chart below displays the change in the company's viewer composition in 2013.
It can be seen that the growth in international members is faster than the growth in domestic members as the company entered into new countries. Netflix service is currently present across 41 countries and will continue its geographical expansion into 2014.
We shall now take a look at the fundamental factors of Netflix. The table below summarizes the revenue and earnings changes at Netflix over the last year.
Netflix Fundamental Drivers
|In millions USD, except per share data
|Q4 2013 guidance, midpoint
|Q4 2013, YoY change
|Operating Income
|Net Income
|Free Cash Flow
|Shares (FD)
Based on numbers reported in the company's Q3, 2013 earnings report
It can be seen that the company saw significant improvement in earnings and revenues during 2013. Based on the midpoint of Q4 2013 guidance, the company will register a full year earnings growth of close to 350% on a revenue growth of 21% - 22% (revenue growth based on our expectations for Q4, 2013). The significant improvement in earnings will be a welcome relief to investors. However, the company will still have to grow earnings substantially in order to justify the current valuation levels of the stock.
Netflix Q4 2013 and FY 2014
Netflix is expected to report its Q4 2013 and FY 2013 earnings on Jan 22nd. As an investor it will be important to look at a few numbers beyond the revenue and earnings growth. Apart from the earnings, we will be keeping a watch on the subscriber numbers and the overall profit margins of the company. The subscriber numbers will assume greater importance over the coming quarters, in light of the recent victory of Verizon over the FCC. The judgement by the US court of appeals could lead to differential pricing for streaming service providers like Netflix, leading to an increase in the operating costs and resulting in long term pressure on profit margins.
On the positive side, Netflix's early commitment to in-house developed content has helped the company improve its profit margins and also enabled it to create a diversified content portfolio. The diversified content portfolio is a competitive strength which could help Netflix retain users in case the company resorts to marginal price increases to offset higher operating costs.
We expect the company to report numbers at the higher end of Q4 2013 estimates and continue its good performance over the coming year. However, any significant change in the cost structure will put the already low profit margins under extreme pressure. Netflix's in-house developed content and variety in its portfolio are couple of factors which lend a competitive edge to the company in an otherwise commoditized industry. We expect the company's revenues to be driven by continued subscriber growth, as it expands geographically and brings greater variety and choice in its product offering. However, at its current levels, the stock is trading at a 1-yr forward P/E of 79.1 and a 2-yr forward P/E of 43.5 based on estimates of the company's earnings over the next two years. Though we see the company as fundamentally strong and heading in the right direction overall, we see it as a highly risky investment at its current price levels, as the price seems to have run far ahead of the company's fundamentals. Check back to read our take on the company's Q4 2013 earnings numbers.

I was going to do early voting in Texas today. I am not sure I am going to do it today. I was thinking that my normal voting place would be the place I would do early voting. No it is not. The place I would have to go is 6 miles from here and would take me 12 minutes if there is no traffic. I do not have a car so I was going to take Uber there and back.
I think I will just wait for election day and vote at the place that I been voting for years. I took the bus in the past and I even walked home from voting one time. My heath has changed and I do not think I would be walking home again from voting.
I been up all night .. I had to fill my pill box. I do that on the 1st of the month. It takes some time to do.
Oh … I do not get a commission from YouTube if you watch the above video and 3,434 have watched it so far. The reason I do not get paid is because I put the word "drug" in the tags.
There are, at least, five other videos that Amazon rejects for the same reason. One of them has 22,751 views – "What is a pill cutter?"
I am thinking about Not Monetizing any of my videos. That means that you would not see adv on any of my 600 videos. It means I would not get any commission when people watch my videos. I get about $30.00 a month now. But I am just tried of having to deal with the crap from YouTube.

Cambridge Mail Server: Exim 4.70 Provides Better Spam Protection
Exim 4.70, a mail server developed at the University of Cambridge, combines new features and bugfixes.
The new Exim server provides native support of DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), so as no longer to depend on external libraries. DomainKeys are cryptographic extensions for mail headers that confirm the domain source for messages. DKIM should help fight spam and phishing attempts.
A further Exim feature is support for Distributed Checksum Clearinghouses (DCC), a system that checks well-known spams against their checksums, albeit the feature being still in an experimental stage.
Developers also removed the embedded library for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) from the server, because most operating systems provide their own library for the purpose. The project changelog also lists a slew of fixed bugs.
Exim 4.70 source code is available for download as an RPM package from the project homepage. The license is GPL.

Tasting ethnic foods, celebrating black history month Equity Requires that all teaching is culturally relevant - classrooms and schools are models of democracy Achieving equity: 1. Place student at center of learning process 2. Promote human rights and respect for cultural diff. 3. Believe ALL students can learn 4. Acknowledge and build on histories and experiences of students microcultural memberships 5. Help students understand racism, sexism, classism, discrimination 6. Critique society in the interest of social justice and equality 7. Participate in collective social action to ensure a democratic society Undergirding Tenets People fought for equal education throughout history - women, low income families, oppresses ethnic and religious groups Brown v. Board of Education (Supreme Court, 1954) - separate-but-equal education for black and white students declared illegal Civil Rights (1960's) - new curriculum content about various ethnic groups - emphasis on equity for women, disabilities, limited-English speakers Social justice and equality remain goals for society - to be modeled in classrooms and schools Diversity Discussion of multiculturalism - side 1: promotion of diversity will strengthen the nation - side 2: promotion of diversity will divide the nation and lead to conflict Western tradition is denigrated as diversity is highlighted Outgrowth of discussion has led to establishment of general education requirements for ethnic, women's and global studies in colleges and universities Diverse student body and faculty allow for interactions in authentic settings with people from different backgrounds Social Justice and Equality Justice - related to fairness, moral rightness, equity Social Justice - focuses on how we help others in the community who are not as advantaged as we are - ethic of social justice is essential in teaching - requires all schools to provide all students equal access to a high-quality education Schools reflect on inequities of the broader society Fairness See page 110 Antiracist Ed. V. Multiculturalism Ed.: The critique See page 110 Culture of the School Most students are subjected to the same curriculum Traditions in the school - regional influences, social structure, location of the school - sports, activities - rural schools emphasize Future Farmers of America, agricultural programs, 4H clubs Read Jean Anyon's article Curriculum 4 types of curriculum: 1. Overt curriculum 2. Hidden curriculum 3. Extra/ co-curriculum 4. Null curriculum Culturally Relevant teaching Preferred teaching and learning styles - embedded in cultural backgrounds and experiences Making generalizations about culturally diverse learners is very dangerous Many differences exist among members of the same group Culturally relevant teaching is complex Teacher must: - listen to and observe students and parents - assess student performance to develop the most effective teaching strategy Culturally relevant teaching validates the cultures of students and Building on Cultural Context Teachers should helps students see the relationship between subject matter and the world in which they live Use students' prior knowledge and experiences Repertoires are limited for beginning teachers - good teachers are able to draw on many different strategies Know knowledge, skills and commitments valued in cultures - some students rebel as a form of resistance against the values of dominant society Lack of understanding about cultural differences and nonverbal communication lead to student-teacher conflict Teach communication patterns of the dominant culture to all Centering the Cultures of Students Curriculum for all academic areas should reflect integration of principles of diversity and equality Additive approach - including one unit on another group sporadically 1/3 of students in US schools do not see themselves in the curriculum -Curriculum does not normally include stories of women, disabilities, English language learners, poverty, elderly Inclusive curriculum reflects the reality of multicultural world Private schools grounded in different cultures - Afrocentric, Latino, Native American, religious affiliations, single sex Validating Student Voices The opportunity to speak and be heard as equal Respect for differences is key in affirming student voices Incorporation of voices requires the development of listening skills and the validation of multiple perspectives, languages, dialects Teachers encourage students to contribute their own realities and experiences - must listen to ALL voices Educational Challenges 1/3 of students in US schools are from ethnic groups other than European By 2020, more than 45% of the school-age population will be students of color The Challenge of Technology and Equity Technology is important in today's society Most of the world's population does not have access to computers or the Internet On some Native American reservations, only 60% of residents have a telephone 2% of low income, rural homes have Internet access 50% with income $75,000+ do have access Digital divide - based on income, race, education, household type, geographic location - difference in access to technology tools and the Internet More on technology African Americans, Native Americans, Hispanics, women hold few technology jobs More than 90% of all schools in the country are wired with at least one Internet connection - Internet connections differ by the income levels of students 5 characteristics of a positive information society 1. Is community driven and meets real community needs? 2. Overcomes major content barriers facing the underserved 3. Provides people to help 4. Offers online content that is easy to use 5. Is sustainable The Challenge of Gender-Sensitive Education Traditionally, females were trained to be wives and mothers Today, 40%+ of graduates from medical and law schools are women Rigid definitions limit the options and potential of both males and females Today's realities: See p. 122 To promote gender equity, females should be encouraged to be involved in math, science, and computer science A gender-sensitive education provides equity to boys and girls - does not mean males and females are always treated the same Teachers in gender-sensitive classrooms monitor interactions among girls and boys and their own interactions with the sexes The Challenge of Language Diversity Immigrant students populating large cities Language differences used at home and at school can lead to dissonance between students, their families and school officials Dropout rate of English language learners is 2-2.5 times as great as for other students of the same age Nat.'l Assoc. for the Education of Young Children - urges teacher to encourage "the development of children's home language while fostering the acquisition of English Assimilationist instruction integrates students into the dominant or mainstream culture - bilingual education, newcomer programs, sheltered instruction Teachers as Social Activists: Thinking Critically Critically-thinking educators ask how and why inequities are occurring in their classroom and school Teaching equitably does not mean teaching everyone the same way - helping students function effectively in multiple classroom settings and used by the students in the classroom Critical thinkers challenge the philosophy and practices of the dominant society that are not supportive of equity, democracy, and social justice Practicing Equity in the Classroom Caring and fairness Teacher perceptions may be based on personal characteristics of the student and/or group membership Multicultural education does not tolerate unjust practices by teachers No discrimination Students learn to respect differences and to interact within and across ethnic and cultural groups Teachers might praise some students while tending to correct and discipline others Everyone has been raised in a racist, sexist, and classist society in which the biases are so embedded that it is difficult for people to recognize anything other than overt signs. Equity continued Reflecting on practice and on the practice of those you observe - are students from different gender, economic and ethnic groups treated differently? - are the fewer discipline and learning problems among students who are from the same background as the teacher? - Which students receive the most assistance? Equity is the ability to recognize one's own biases and make appropriate adjustments Teaching for Social Justice Culturally relevant teaching helps students struggle in class with social problems Racism, sexism, classism, prejudice, and discrimination are felt differently by students of color than by members of the dominant group Anger, denial, guilt, and affirmation of identity are critical parts of learning about and struggling with the pernicious practices that permeate most institutions. Students from the dominant group have never experienced discrimination and often believe it does not exist In teaching for social justice, teacher help students understand the equalities, oppression and power struggles that are the realities of society Social Justice continued Maxine Green - "To teach for social justice is to teach for enhanced perception and imaginative explorations, for the recognition of social wrongs…" Students learn to apply the knowledge and skills they are learning to a local, regional , or global issue - the learning becomes authentic Involving communities and families Parents and the community are the essential resources in the delivery of multicultural education Few beginning teachers will have had direct involvement in multiple cultural communities Learning to function effectively in several cultural communities requires participants to be comfortable with their own background Teachers who are most successful in helping students from diverse cultural backgrounds learn there are those who "struggle to confront their own histories, hear the dissonance in their own profession

Panasonic H-FS45150ES 45-150mm Telephoto Zoom Lens
- Product Info
Product Info
Panasonic H-FS45150ES 45-150mm Telephoto Zoom Lens
- High image quality and superior construction in an incredibly compact lens
- Mega Optical Image Stabiliser to suppress handshake
- High speed silent AF system is perfect for capturing video
- UHR index lens and glass mould aspherical lenses for edge to edge sharpness
- Durable metal mount
Compact and lightweight telephoto zoom lens, available in black or silver
This impressive telephoto zoom interchangeable lens for the Lumix G Micro System complies with Micro Four Thirds System standard. Ultra compact and lightweight, the Lumix G Vario 45-150 mm/F4.0-5.6 ASPH./MEGA O.I.S. lens is highly portable and offers a versatile zoom range of 45-150 mm (35 mm camera equivalent: 90-300 mm). This is suitable for zooming into the action and is an ideal travel companion due to its reduced size and weight.
MEGA Optical Image Stabiliser suppresses handshake for crisp, clear shots
The new Lumix G Vario 45-150 mm/F4.0-5.6 ASPH./MEGA O.I.S. lens incorporates Panasonic's MEGA O.I.S. (Optical Image Stabilizer), which makes it easy to shoot super clear shots even in low-lit situations by suppressing the blur caused by a hand shake.
High speed silent AF system is perfect for capturing smooth photos and video
This lens incorporates a superior inner focus system, which enables excellent resolution and contrast from full life-size magnification to infinity. The inclusion of a stepping motor makes the focusing action smooth and silent for use in both photo and video recording. When mounted on the cameras of Lumix G Micro System, you can also take advantage of the high-speed, high-precision Contrast AF system.
Ultra High Refractive index lens and glass mould aspherical lenses for edge-to-edge sharpness
The lens system is comprised of twelve elements in nine groups, using two aspherical lenses and one UHR (Ultra High Refractive) index lens. The newly developed UHR index lens and glass mould aspherical lenses achieve uniformed description from the centre to the edges. The 7 aperture blades consists a circular aperture diaphragm and produces an attractive smoothness in out-of-focus areas even shooting at large aperture. The new lens system uses multi-coated lens elements that reduce ghosts and flare to an absolute minimum, helping deliver a high optical performance. The highly reliable metal mount is durable enough for repeated exchange of lens.
MTF Chart
For the lenses distortion compensation available, the horizontal axis of MTF is the distance from the center, which is compensated accordingly.
Aspherical lenses
These lenses prevent spherical and distortion aberrations, so higher magnification can be achieved with fewer lenses. Resulting in smaller size and weight, these lenses feature the high dimensional accuracy of Panasonic's cutting-edge production technologies, including concave lenses that measure just 0.3mm at their thinnest part.
MEGA O.I.S (Optical Image Stabiliser) Designed to compensate for hands-shake 'blur', the MEGA O.I.S's internal LSI compensates by processing the output of the gyrosensors at approximately 4,000 times a second. What you see in the Live View Finder or LCD image is what you get in the shot (especially effective when using a zoom lens).
Multi-coating Process In addition to a standard broadband anti-reflection coating, Lumix G/Leica DG lenses reduce the reflection of light entering at an angle. Widely used on fisheye and ultra-wide-angle lenses, this coating greatly improves results when shooting against a light source, resulting in high quality images with superb clarity.

Thu, 30 Aug 2012 07:12:37 +0000
Dear Statalisters,
I am currently estimating a TSCS model which has major issues with serial correllation. Following the advice of Beck and Katz (2009) I estimated a Cochrane Orcutt regression (via prais with corc) with a lagged dependent variable in order to deal with autocorrelation. The results are promising however I would like to estimate panel corrected standard errors for this model. However I can not find a command which will accomplish this for me and am unable to calculate them manually. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

FORT WORTH (AP) Speedway Motorsports chairman Bruton Smith will make a "major announcement" Friday in Texas amid widespread speculation that he's purchasing New Hampshire International Speedway.
Officials at Texas Motor Speedway said that Smith had scheduled a news conference Friday morning at the track. Texas is one of six tracks Smith already owns and where the NASCAR Nextel Cup, Busch and Trucks series run this weekend.
Texas Motor Speedway president Eddie Gossage would say only that Smith would make a "major announcement."
The Boston Globe first reported Thursday that Smith had entered into an agreement to purchase the New Hampshire track, New England's largest sports venue. There were several other reports Thursday, including The Charlotte Observer saying the deal had been completed. All cited unidentified sources.
Bob Bahre, the 80-year-old owner of the New Hampshire track, earlier this year discussed selling the track to Boston Red Sox owner John Henry. Bahre, one of the rare independent track owner/operators, said then that he'd had contact with a long list of potential buyers.
Bahre purchased Bryar Motorsports Park in 1989 and turned it into a one-mile superspeedway the next year.
Smith's acquisition of the New Hampshire track could eventually lead to a second NASCAR date and a spot in the Chase for the Nextel Cup schedule for Las Vegas, one of the other tracks Smith owns. It could also allow Texas to have an earlier date in the Chase.
Such changes couldn't occur until at least 2009 since next year's schedule is already set.
New Hampshire hosted two Nextel Cup races this year, including the first of the 10 Chase races. The eighth race is Sunday at the 1½-mile, high-banked Texas track.
There were 101,000 fans at New Hampshire on Sept. 16, which was the track's 26th consecutive sellout. That race came on the same day the Boston Red Sox played the New York Yankees at Fenway Park and the New England Patriots were at home against San Diego.
Bahre and Smith purchased North Wilkesboro (N.C.) Speedway in the mid-1990s, then moved the two NASCAR Cup dates that were run there to their tracks.
Smith paid $6 million for half the Wilkesboro track in 1995, and Bahre paid $8 million in a separate deal for his share. Smith moved one of the NASCAR races to Texas and Bahre took the other to New Hampshire.
The date Smith got from North Wilkesboro was the only race Texas had from its opening in 1997 until NASCAR added a Chase race at Texas as part of its 2005 schedule.
Beside Texas and Las Vegas, Smith also owns Atlanta Motor Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Infineon Raceway in California and Lowe's Motor Speedway in North Carolina.

Snow Disaster in Oklahoma! OMG!
The local Oklahoma media has been in hysteria over the past few days about the winter storm that was approaching. Well, the storm hit and the human tragedy is unimaginable. Luckily our local media has been providing around the clock coverage of this disaster in the STORM CENTER (keeping you safe). The governor of Oklahoma has declared all of Oklahoma to be a DISASTER area.
Hopefully we will get much needed money from the federal government. Otherwise I will have to go out and loot, rape and kill as if I were in Haiti.
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. But mostly, be sure to send us money.
P.S. I will keep a running tally here of the human death toll of this storm:
People estimated killed so far in this OFFICIAL DISASTER: 0
01/30/10 - Death Toll update: 0

A defendant may be able to escape liability for injuries if the injured party executed a waiver that releases the defendant from liability. However, our Miami personal injury attorneys find that courts construe these waivers very carefully especially if they constitute a very broad release from all existing and future claims. Parties should take care in executing such broad waivers and must insist on clear language that defines the scope of the waiver. The case below illustrates how any ambiguity will usually be construed in the plaintiff's favor and against a waiver's broad applicability.
The case of Peterson v. Flare Fittings involves an incident where the plaintiff was injured when a 10-foot balloon made contact with his head while he was attending a trade show and sporting event. The balloon contained the defendant's logo and was attached to a tree beside a tent operated by the defendant. According to the plaintiff, the impact caused his knees to buckle and caused him to be in pain and to be dazed. The plaintiff reported the incident to a manager, He then sought medical treatment and was discharged after receiving negative X-rays. He returned the following day to participate in the paintball competition that was a part of the event and was required to sign a waiver. The waiver stated, in relevant part, that it constituted a release from all past or future claims connected to participation in the event and related activities. The plaintiff signed the waiver. He participated in the competition and returned home shortly after that. Several years later, the plaintiff filed a personal injury suit against the defendant for injuries arising from his collision with the balloon and alleged that the defendant was negligent. The defendant raised the waiver as one of its defenses to liability and filed a motion for summary judgment on that ground. The court granted the defendant's motion, and the plaintiff appealed.

The Rainy Season
James P. Blaylock has set a new standard for the contemporary ghost story. The Washington Post called him "a master." Dean Koontz has hailed his writing as "first rate." A masterful blend of psychological insight and unearthly phenomena, The Rainy Season blurs the lines between the past and the present, the living and the dead, fantasy and reality . . . It's a gray, wet winter in southern California, and Phil Ainsworth is alone. The sudden death of his young wife has left him shaken, and he senses an eerie presence in the big old house he inherited from his mother. Then a late night phone call brings him more bad news: Phil's sister has died, leaving her ten-year-old daughter Betsy in his care. It seems like a bad time to bring a child into this unhappy house, but the child is the only family he has left. What he doesn't know is that Betsy is a very special child. She can sense powerful emotions from the past, hear voices of the dead, and see the uncanny powers closing around this house... A haunting tale of death, and dreams, and desires...from the award-winning author who has become "a singular American fabulist" (William Gibson). "With acrobatic grace, Blaylock walks the dividing line between fantasy and horror." -Publishers Weekly "One of the most brilliant of the new generation of fabulist writers." -Washington Post Book World

Aldi Mobile slashes data allowance on unlimited plan
Low cost MVNO Aldi Mobile has halved the monthly data allowance on its unlimited pre-paid plan from 5GB to 2.5GB, just two months after the collapse of original wholesale provider ispONE.
Low cost MVNO Aldi Mobile has halved the monthly data allowance on its unlimited pre-paid plan from 5GB to 2.5GB, just two months after the collapse of original wholesale provider ispONE.
Kogan Mobile has angrily hit back at claims by Telstra that the telco is prepared to enter into a direct arrangement with the embattled MVNO, following the collapse of wholesale provider ispONE earlier this week.
Kogan Mobile says it is "devastated" and "extremely upset" at being forced to close its business, following the collapse of wholesale provider ispONE.
Low cost MVNO Aldi Mobile will continue to operate as usual, after it struck a deal directly with Telstra wholesale following the collapse of original wholesale provider ispONE.
Kogan Mobile has updated the terms and conditions surrounding its fair use policy, following reports of customers being kicked off the network.
New low cost mobile network Aldi Mobile offers the ability to make international calls but international roaming is not available on the service, it has been confirmed.
Pricing for German supermarket chain Aldi's new pre-paid mobile network, Aldi Mobile, has been revealed. The new mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) will use the Telstra wholesale network to provide its service.
German supermarket chain Aldi will soon become a low cost, pre-paid mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) in Australia, according to Android blog Ausdroid.
Australian online store Kogan officially launched its own pre-paid mobile phone service yesterday called Kogan Mobile. It offers extremely competitive and cheap prices on pre-paid plans, but how fast are data speeds?
The Australian Government wants Telstra to structurally separate and if the telco giant won't do so voluntarily the Rudd administration will use regulation to achieve the goal.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission has issued draft pricing principles and indicative prices for six fixed line wholesale services, which allow Telstra competitors to provide fixed voice and broadband services over Telstra's copper ne...
Telstra Wholesale's Kate McKenzie will replace the telco's strategic marketing general managing director, Bill Stewart, as of March 30.

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Windows 10 / HP Spectre x360
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
Windows 10 / Lenovo Yoga 910
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I'm sure it will grow in time.
