Vitamin E Succinate, Part 2
The Preferred Form of Vitamin E to Combat Breast, Prostate and Other Cancers
By James P. Meschino, DC, MS
It is well-documented that women whose breast cells overexpress the ErbB2 receptor (a member of the epithelial growth-factor receptor family) on their cell surface are at higher risk for breast cancer development.Additionally, their overexpression is associated with the estrogen-receptor-negative form of the disease, which is known to be the most clinically aggressive form of this disease.8,9 Studies by Wang and fellow researchers demonstrated that vitamin E succinate was able to induce programmed cell death (apoptosis) in human breast cancer cells that exhibited high levels of ErbB2 expression.
A study by Yu, et al., showed that vitamin E succinate also could induce apoptosis in human breast cancer cells that are Fas-resistant.10 Fas is an immunology protein that initiates programmed cell death. Apoptosis is important in cell-mediated immune response, autoimmune tolerance and cancer control. Fas is a surface receptor that is expressed throughout the body. The Fas ligand is expressed mostly on activated T-cells, natural killer cells and microglia, but is sometimes found on other cells of the immune system.
When a cell expressing Fas encounters another cell expressing the Fas ligand, the receptor is stimulated in such a way as to transmit a message to secondary protein messengers within the cytoplasm (signal transduction) of the cell. In turn, this activates a series of events that lead to cell death (apoptosis). Certain breast cancer cells are resistant to the apoptosis-inducing effects of Fas, such as MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 human breast cancer cells.11
The study by Yu, et al., showed that vitamin E succinate was able to convert Fas-resistant human breast cancer cells to Fas-sensitive phenotype, allowing apoptosis to proceed. These findings are important, as they suggest another mechanism through which VES may prevent breast cancer development and/or inhibit the further growth and proliferation of existing breast cancer cells.
Other Mechanisms Through Which Vitamin E Succinate May Prevent Cancer
Reports from Wu, et al., indicate that vitamin E succinate also induces apoptosis of cancer cells by first stimulating production of transforming growth factor-B, which, in turn, increases kinase activity of another protein messenger known as c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), followed by phosphorylation of c-Jun. Finally, activated c-Jun triggers apoptosis. Wu, et al., have shown this apoptosis pathway to exist in human gastric cancer cells, but it might occur in many other cancer cells as well.3 Other researchers have confirmed that vitamin E succinate induces apoptosis through stimulation of the c-Jun messenger system.12,13 In addition, Wu, et al., report that vitamin E succinate also induces apoptosis of certain cancer cells by enhancing activity of the Fas-apoptosis system (sometimes called the Fas-death receptor, although other death receptors are also present on the cell surface).3
In regard to vitamin E supplementation, the current evidence suggests health practitioners should strongly consider recommending supplements containing vitamin E succinate (alpha-tocopherol succinate or alpha-tocopheryl succinate) as part of a high-potency multiple vitamin/mineral supplement or as a stand-alone supplement as part of a comprehensive program to reduce cancer risk. In this regard, the evidence suggests that vitamin E succinate is superior to other available forms of vitamin E and related tocotrienols. Many experts suggest a daily dose of 400 IU per day of vitamin E succinate for general health promotion and disease prevention. As an adjunct to cancer treatment, some practitioners use a total daily dose of 800-1,600 IU (Lockwood, et al.,16 recommend up to 2,500 IU of vitamin E) in conjunction with high doses of other antioxidants and natural cancer-fighting herbs and phytonutrients. Preliminary human trials using these nutritional supplements have shown impressive results in reducing cancer progression, preventing metastasis and reducing side effects of chemotherapy and radiation.14
In the review presented by Prasad and fellow researchers, the authors state, "Since it has been demonstrated that vitamin E succinate (alpha-tocopheryl succinate) in combination with dietary micronutrients (retonoic acid, vitamin C and carotenoids) is more effective in reducing the proliferation of tumor cells in culture than the individual agents and in enhancing the effect of some chemotherapeutic agents on these cells, we have recommended the use of alpha-tocopheryl succinate in combination with dietary micronutrients as an adjunct to standard therapy in the treatment of cancer." These authors have provided an excellent review of the anticancer properties of vitamin E succinate for health practitioners interested in further reading on this subject.15
Abundant evidence indicates that vitamin E succinate possesses unique biological properties that enable it to inhibit or slow the replication of human cancer cells and/or induce apoptosis of many types of cancer cells, most notably prostate and breast cancer. In this regard, vitamin E succinate has been shown to be superior to other forms of vitamin E. As cancer accounts for approximately 20 percent of all deaths in North America, this information should be of importance to health practitioners who routinely recommend multiple vitamins and/or vitamin E supplements to their patients for the purpose of reducing risk of degenerative disease and/or who advise patients on evidence-based adjunctive nutritional therapies that might be helpful to prevent recurrences or metastasis of cancer in patients who already have been affected by this disease.

Dan Aykroyd Is Mississippi's Newest Sheriff
You're probably thinking "huh?" just like I was when I first read the headline saying Dan Aykroyd is now a sheriff. Apparently Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't the only great actor who can turn into an authoritative figure. The state of Mississippi has just sworn in its newest and most famous law-enforcer.

Marist Football Program Holds Annual Spring Game
Marist hopes to use spring game to fuel the upcoming season. Caitlin Nolan
Football fans that attended last season's spring game had good reason to feel unprepared if they arrived at Tenney Stadium without a calculator. The game, played in an offense vs. defense format, used a point system to decide a winner.
Six points were awarded to the offense for a touchdown, four points to the defense for a turnover or prevention of a touchdown if the offense started a drive inside the defensive team's 35-yard line. The list went on and on.
This time around, a much simpler approach was taken: a draft held prior to the game yielded two sides that faced each other in the program's annual Red vs. White spring game, held on Friday, April 1.
"It's much more competitive [with two teams]," junior quarterback Mike Gentile said. "Kids will have more pride in their team when there's no confusion about what team you're on. You've got two sets of the offensive lines going out there and doing a good job as well as the receivers split evenly."
Players dealt with wet and blustery conditions over the course of their spring practices, a 14-session schedule that commenced on Feb. 28.
"We have never had spring ball this early in the year before," Gentile said. "The trainers take precautions. Other teams that have been playing in this cold are accommodated for that. The back end of our season it gets real cold. Why not get more practice time in that weather?"
Five quarterbacks were active in the scrimmage and the White squad captured a 23-21 victory behind the play of signal-callers Chuckie Looney, Sam Loussedes and Duell Smith.
Tommy Reilly, last season's primary starting quarterback, was inactive for the game and is recovering from ACL surgery.
Gentile, who is recovering from a knee injury of his own, and sophomore quarterback Anthony Varrichione were placed on the Red team.
"Mentally, it was a real building step," Gentile said. "I have one season under my belt and now I have spring ball under my belt. We went live, too. It gave me some confidence sitting in the pocket and I have felt comfortable for the first time since I have been back."
Twelve offensive linemen dressed for the contest and the unit welcomed back Rocco Manfre, Steve Carretta and Peter Evans, who missed the fall season due to a leg injury.
Phede Celestin, a six-foot-five-inch, 317-pound sophomore joined four freshmen to form the Red Foxes starting offensive line last season.
"Now we have people that have had experience," Celestin said. "And the four freshmen that started [plus] myself, we know what we are doing. We can get better physically. Mentally, we have everything down."
The offensive line had to contend with Terrence Fede, an extremely talented defensive end who was inactive last season due to his involvement with a security-related incident that took place during the spring of 2010.
From his down stance, Fede chased down halfback Calvin McCoy to the far sideline twice in the first half and clobbered running back R.J. D'Apolito on the White team's first defensive play from scrimmage.
"Im happy [Terrence] is back," Celestin said. "He has proven to us that he has been putting in the work in the off season since he wasn't here last season."
Several roster changes have also taken place, including moving freshmen Michael Vannucci and Patrick Desaultels from the offensive to the defensive line.
Junior Tim Moller, who played the past three seasons as a defensive back, has worked out as a running back this spring.
"I felt like I wasn't really helping the team out on defense," Moller said. "I wasn't putting my whole self to the team on defense. Maybe moving to offense, I can help us out more. We think we have a chance to do really well next year."
The Marist rushing attack averaged 61.1 yards per game last season behind the efforts of six different rushers while allowing 179.9 yards on the ground per contest to its opponents.
"I definitely feel like I still have a lot to prove to the team and to the coaches," Moller said. "I'm still learning, and I'm going to continue to go over the offense and the packages."
How significant the losses of seniors James LaMacchia, wideout, and Chris Ortner, tight end, will be to the Marist offensive unit has yet to be seen.
The pair combined for more than 1,000 all-purpose yards last season, but the Red Foxes will return six of its top 10 receivers.
"Kevin [Fitzpatrick] and Mike [Rios] really stepped up and became leaders," Gentile said. "One person who has impressed me the most is Anthony Calcagni, the sophomore tight end. He'll just go out and reach for balls like I've never seen and hold onto it because of his strength."
Junior cornerback Jaquan Bryant intercepted two passes in the scrimmage and returned a punt for 75 yards.
Moller, Ryan Dinnebeil and Calvin McCoy all rushed for touchdowns while Armani Martin and Brennen Dodd were on the receiving end of touchdown passes.
Punter Kevin Pauly, who will return for a fifth season, connected on a 36-yard field goal.
Marist opens up its 2011 season on Sept. 3 against the Sacred Heart Pioneers.

Own a piece of History! See the Carmichael Commemorative Offering from UNC and Jostens, Inc.
Initially the home to Carolina's men's basketball and wrestling teams, Carmichael has housed the women's volleyball, women's gymnastics, and women's basketball teams as well. Though the men's basketball team moved to the Dean E. Smith Center midway through the 1985-1986 season, the other five sports have continued to call Carmichael home. Prior to moving to the Smith Center, the Tar Heel men's basketball team compiled an amazing 169-20 record at Carmichael Auditorium, including a perfect 5-0 during the first half of the 1985-86 season.
Prior to the 1976-77 season, 1,200 seats were added to bring historic Carmichael to its present capacity of 10,180. On January 22, 1999, the first-ever sold-out crowd filled Carmichael to capacity to watch the Carolina women's basketball team play Duke.
Carmichael Auditorium adjoins Woollen Gymnasium, a long-time site of varsity competition and current home of physical education and intramural activities.
The auditorium is named for the late William D. Carmichael, Jr., a highly popular figure on campus who served as the university's comptroller, then as its vice-president. He also served for many years as the Consolidated University's acting president. Carmichael passed away in 1961.
Carmichael Auditorium was the site of the 1987 U.S. Olympic Festival volleyball competition. On March 3, 2001, the first-ever MatJam, the wrestling championships for the Atlantic Coast, Colonial, and Southern conferences, was held at Carmichael. It has also been the host of fifteen women's basketball NCAA Tournament games since 1984. The Tar Heels are 14-1 all-time in NCAA Tournament play at Carmichael Auditorium. Carmichael has also hosted numerous North Carolina state high school championships in volleyball, girls' basketball, and wresting. Athletic camps, cheerleading camps, intramural games, and amateur competition of various kinds make Carmichael a busy place.
The Auditorium had a new floor installed after a fire in the spring of 1998. The new floor proved to be a good omen for Carolina athletics. The volleyball team went undefeated in 17 games including victories over non-conference opponents Notre Dame and Tennessee. Gymnastics also had a perfect home record, going 6-0 in Carmichael for the first time in school history. The women's basketball team went 16-2 in games at Carmichael during the 1998-99 season. Wrestling won three of its home meets during the 1998-99 season, including an overwhelming 40-0 victory Maryland.
A number of athletic department offices are located in Carmichael, including Sports Marketing, Olympic Sports administrator Dr. Beth Miller, and a number of Carolina coaches. The halls are lined with sketches of Carolina's most outstanding athletes, and there are five trophy cases containing awards and pictures from a number of sports.

Did anybody else feel like the "teen" magazines and chick flicks of our youth lied to us repeatedly? Boys supposedly teased us because they were "like, so totally into us", other girls tormented us because they were jealous of our awesome. More importantly the day we enter our 20's our skin will be clear and glowing. LIES I TELL YOU! Some boys are just jerks, some girls are just mean, and acne doesn't magically disappear when the clock strikes midnight on your 20th birthday. At 27, I suffer more acne than I did in my teens. Usually they're on my chin and around my mouth (no shame in being a sleep drooler) and when I do break out, it's nasty and in patches. The acne I mostly get is cystic and deep under the skin. Not fun. So I gave Relogy a shot.
Relogy skincare offers a take on the 3 step acne systems that we're used to seeing. A cleanser, a moisturizer, and a spot treatment. The products are cruelty free (awesome) and uses natural ingredients (also awesome) and are also fragrance free. It's all fine and dandy if the
products actually work, which is what matters most to me.
Sadly, they didn't work for me. The cleanser is foamy, contains a low amount of Salicylic Acid, and interestingly enough gives you the option to either rinse it off or massage it in and leave it on. I don't feel like it cleansed enough, and I think there wasn't enough Salicylic Acid in it for my skin. I did like that when I tried leaving it on my skin, that it wasn't drying or sticky. The spot treatment is a roller ball with an antiseptic solution that is supposed to heal and soothe. It does feel nice, as metal roller ball applicators tend to. It doesn't have enough oomph to make blemishes go away. I've used straight Tea Tree oil (which is an ingredient) as a spot treatment in the past and it's worked much better.
The moisturizer has a total of 8 ingredients in it. There's no alcohol or parabens in it, the first ingredient is purified water and other natural ingredients in it are certified organic (jojoba oil, coconut milk, coconut oil) it's surprisingly light and soaks in really fast. Problem is, when used on my current, healing breakout- it made it worse.
Funny thing though, the only product I would repurchase is the moisturizer. Why? It saved my life, ok….not LITERALLY, but it definitely made my life easier. I had the flu earlier this month and my nose was raw and sore from blowing it so much. I put a little dab on raw spots and went to bed. When I woke up my nose was 100% better. It seems that it works best on skin that's just dry and not broken out.
So bottom line, just because it didn't work for me doesn't make it a bad product. I would definitely recommend Relogy to someone with dry sensitive skin.

Authors: W. B. Vasantha Kandasamy, Florentin Smarandache
The concept of dual numbers was introduced in 1873 by W.K.Clifford. In this book the authors build higher dimensional dual numbers, interval dual numbers and impose some algebraic structures on them. The S-vector space of dual numbers built over a Smarandache dual ring can have eigen values and eigen vectors to be dual numbers. Complex modulo integer dual numbers and neutrosophic dual numbers are also introduced. The notion of fuzzy dual numbers can play a vital role in fuzzy models. Some research level problems are also proposed here.

Good lock.
Awesome design – love it. Check your navigation on a phone. Good luck with it
Cheers both!
@charlie4282 – Thanks man! Yeah the mobile navigation is screwed up a bit! Changed it and it seems for the worst on phones!
I think you can submit it.

I think you can submit it.
Wow thank you! I'm going to sort out the navigation and possibly add a working contact form etc and polish a few things.
Do you think it needs to have more "meat" more alternate page styles and stuff
it's still fine in 320px screen,
but for menu, can you fix it?
here is the screenshot http://prntscr.com/1wjm4p
The menu needs some work, make it sexy man. I wold use different fonts too PT Sans Narrow for sure make it nicer and cleaner looking.
Also there is not enough graphical elements that make the pages stand out, like backgrounds and so on.
Also I would add more animated content so it's more interactive.
You can do a lot to make it kick but.
This is just my opinion, I don't really like the pricing table. It's not eye catching and hard to read. The purpose of pricing table is to catch people attention.
Doesn't meet our current minimum quality apparently – Any ideas?

Impact data for the investigation of injuries in inflatable rescue boats (IRBs)
Ludcke, Justin A., Pearcy, Mark J., Evans, John H., & Barker, Timothy M. (2001) Impact data for the investigation of injuries in inflatable rescue boats (IRBs). Journal of Australasian Physical and Engineering Sciences in Medicine, 24(2), pp. 95-101.
Inflatable Rescue Boats (IRBs) are arguably the most important rescue tools utilised by Australian Surf Lifesavers. The crews in the IRB are continuously battling the fierce element that is the ocean. This force of nature takes its toll on man and machine. Initial impact data for this unique situation has been gathered as part of a biomechanical study investigating the increasing frequency of injuries to surf lifesavers whilst using an IRB. This paper outlines the scope of the research topic and concentrates on the data gathering equipment and an analysis of this unique data set. This initial testing has revealed impact acceleration peaks up to and exceeding 400 m/s2 (40 g) for a period of about 20 ms. These values were a result of an impact with waves of moderate size (approximately 1 m). It was therefore concluded that the impact is of a significant nature and further work should be performed to determine more concise ride characteristics for the IRB. From that it is hoped that methods will be discovered to lessen the impact on the crew with the aim of decreasing the injury rate.

Anyone watching or listening to the news these days knows about the foiled terror plot in the UK. Here in the US we also have a buzz recently about eleven Egyptian exchange students who disappeared in the United States enroute to a university exchange program. At this point nine of the eleven students have been found, and the absconders apparently have been taken into custody. None are alleged to have any links to terrorist organizations. They are not suspected of criminal activity although they have violated the terms of their visas. Two of them were located here in Charm City. This is not the first time Egyptian immigrants have been involved in local terrorism investigations. Last October a false bomb threat against the Harbor Tunnel was called in by an Egyptian man who had violated his visa. I can't find all the links now, but I vaguely recall that he was a disgruntled former employee (aren't all former employees 'disgruntled'? are current employees 'gruntled'? where does this word come from, anyway?) who was trying to get his boss in trouble. Boss was taken into custody, questioned, and released without charges. But this happened in the same neighborhood where the recent two students were picked up.
So why am I bringing this up, given that ShrinkRap really isn't a political blog? It's because of this aside comment I saw in the news release:
Let me say ahead ahead of time that I have no connection with this situation whatsoever and I don't know for sure where these guys are being held. I'm using this situation as a hypothetical for discussion purposes.
The Federal government has its own detention centers and prison facilities located throughout the United States and its possessions. In addition to this, they contract with a number of state and local facilities to house pretrial detainees and others in their custody who may be transitioning through the region on the way to or from various court appearances. When it comes to "undisclosed locations" you can take your pick.
The reason I'm bringing this up is because, regardless of the purpose of detention, these folks need medical and mental health care. Someone has to be under contract to give it to them. This raises some interesting ethical issues. If you're being held as a 'person of interest', a 'material witness', or as a visa violator you don't have the rights and protections afforded to a pretrial detainee or even a convicted criminal. For example, there is no testimonial privilege for someone who is not charged with a crime. Early on in the life of this blog (long before I had a logo, even before we had a Duck) I wrote about the US Patriot Act and implications for correctional healthcare providers. Situations like this make this a very real possibility that correctional workers have to face, both locally and nationally. Here are the issues I foresee we'll have to figure out:
- informed consent for treatment
- setting of evaluation/presence of investigators
- cooperation or participation in interrogation
- obligation to report torture/improper interrogation techniques
These are the kind of situations that the National Commission for Correctional Healthcare standards do not address, nor could they possibly predict. For those of you in free society, you've got more to think about now. And you thought HIPAA compliance was tough to figure out.

Prepared For The Next Ike
On the eve of the 2013 hurricane season, memories of Ike still linger in Galveston. Galveston County Judge Mark Henry says the storm did an estimated $20-30 billion in damage, and there are still hundreds of abandoned structures left from the storm, nearly five years later. He tells KTRH the county is working to remove them, but it's a slow process that takes time, work, and a lot of money. "That's one of the unfortunate lessons (from Ike)," says Henry. "A hurricane that were to hit in 2013 we'll still be dealing with five or six years from now."
While physical damage from a storm is an inevitable outcome, Galveston leaders have taken steps to reduce the human toll of another major hurricane. The city and county both say they are much better prepared than they were when Ike struck back in 2008. For Henry, it starts with improved communications. "We now have the ability to call and send a text to every cell phone in Galveston County," he says. "We don't care what your phone number or area code is, you'll hear from us if we have an emergency and we have to declare a disaster or order an evacuation." And speaking of evacuations, those plans have also been updated. "Harris County and Galveston County have an agreement that Galveston County will have 24 hours to evacuate before any of Harris County is asked to evacuate," says Henry.
In addition to plans on paper, Galveston emergency officials have spent the past two days conducting a real-time mock disaster response to a major hurricane. The exercise covered every aspect, from the storm's approach, to its arrival, to the immediate aftermath. Preparations have gone so well that Henry says Galveston emergency officials are now often contacted by leaders in other states for help in dealing with hurricanes. If there's one big lesson from Ike, it is to be prepared for anything. "The Texans wouldn't take the field without practicing," says Henry. "That's kind of what we're doing, we're practicing for a game that hopefully never comes."

Your Whole Story
Weekend Blessing
May you entrust your whole soul and story to the God who saves, loves, and establishes you. May you come to know, more and more, that He leads you even when you're unaware. The less you lean on your own understanding (and trust in His direction instead), the more you'll enjoy the peace that passes understanding and defies your circumstance. God is with you. He is for you. And He will never, no never, forsake you. Open your hands, receive the love He gladly gives, and walk with a spring in your step today. His mercy covers you and His grace surrounds you. Have a joyful day today!
Break Free!
Daily Blessing
May God help you identify the idols in your life - those things that hold you captive, have too much power over you, and keep you from soul freedom. May you open your arms and fully receive the LOVE God lavishes on you! And may you give God the glory He deserves. May you ascribe to Him the power you once gave to others. May you thank Him for the future the enemy has threatened to steal from you. May you walk forward with abundant grace, divine peace, and overwhelming joy because you're profoundly rich in Christ. Shake the shackles off your feet and praise Him! He's set you free! Have a great day today!
'The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house,' says the Lord Almighty. 'And in this place I will grant peace,' declares the Lord Almighty" (Haggai 2:9 niv).
Walk Blessed Today
Daily Blessing
May God Himself release fresh faith and perspective into your soul today! May He strengthen your frame and establish your steps. May He surround you with good friends who fear God and who love you. May He give you fresh vision for your future and divine wisdom for stewarding your 'now' moments. May the song in your heart ring louder than the enemy's threats and accusations. There is no one like our God and there's nothing like His love for you! Walk blessed today, because you are!
He'll Build a Bridge
Daily Blessing
May Jesus tilt your chin upward so you can sense His smile and more clearly hear His voice. May He speak a surprising word of encouragement to you so you have the strength to keep marching onward. May He build a bridge where you least expect one. May He connect you to others who see the best in you. May you steward this training season with clarity, purpose, and conviction. May the things you've been hoping for and praying for culminate into one glorious answer that takes your breath away. And may your faith become sight sooner than later. He's making a way where there's been no way. You can trust Him.
Setbacks Are Temporary
Daily Blessing
May you begin to see your setbacks as temporary, your delays as detours, and your heartbreaks as opportunities to experience God's precious, powerful healing. And in the meantime, may God give you glimpses of glory, insights into His good plan for you. Be assured that God has never left your side; He'll never let you go. May God help you see with supernatural insight so that you won't be deceived by the enemy of your soul, or by your past painful filters, or by your fears of the future. In fact, right here--in this place--may your divine perspective hugely inspire your faith steps. You are mighty in God and He is mighty in you.
Sorrow Turned to Joy
Daily Blessing
May you be honest with God about the hurts in your heart. May you discern the difference between grief and self-pity. May you be okay with not always being okay. God will one day wipe away every tear from your eyes, but until then, He wants to help you walk this journey with peace in your heart and assurance in your soul. He is with you. He will heal you. And He will one day turn your mourning into dancing and your sorrow into songs of joy. In the meantime, enjoy the little graces you find along the way. Celebrate the small victories. Dare to dream. And take one step at a time. You're going to be okay. Blessings on your day today.
Possess His Best
Daily Blessing
May God open your eyes so you can see the land of promise ahead of you. May He fill you with faith to possess the best of what He has for you. May He strengthen you with purpose so you'll faithfully steward today with a faith-filled heart. And may He divinely interrupt you anytime He wants to so that you may be a constant and continual blessing to everyone you meet. Have a divinely blessed day!
Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58 niv).
God's Gifts in You
Daily Blessing
May you see the value of the gifts God has given you. May you see the importance of your contribution in the world today. May you get excited about your role in the greater Kingdom story. And may you dare to dream with God about the ways He intends to use you in the days ahead. You're living and breathing on the earth today because God loves you, has called you, and intends to solve some of the world's problems through you. Embrace the fact that you're a treasure, because you are! And have a joyful, expectant day!
Eliminate Hurry & Worry
Daily Blessing
By God's grace, may you eliminate hurry and worry from your life. May you instead slow your pace and turn your face to the One who loves, saves, redeems, and restores everything about you. Instead of grabbing for yourself, may you pause and wait and see how God provides and cares for you. May you enter into a new season where you know God's rest, His pace, and His provision like you've never know before. He's for you and with you in ways you can't even imagine! Have a blessed day.
Trust Him Wholeheartedly
Daily Blessing
May peace flow like a river through the very depths of your being. May joy rise within you like the morning sun. May strength awaken your heart and sturdy your steps. And may faith swallow up your every fear. God is with you at the break of day. He will not fail you. Though darkness and fear and weakness threaten to overtake you, they will not, they cannot, because you belong to Jesus. He is your stronghold, your high tower, your deliverer, and your defender. He heals, reveals, corrects, and redirects. He's your very good shepherd and will lead you safely through the storm. Trust Him with your whole heart today.
God's Gentle Whisper
Daily Blessing
May you pause today and listen for God's gentle whisper in your ear. May you respond to the slightest nudge of the Spirit within you and do the next thing God gives you to do. May you refuse to get your perspective from the surface appearance of things. Lean in and look for The Lord in this place. He has something for you here; something you need to take with you to your next place of promise. Remember that with every single step you take, you are His. He's got you. Have a wise, discerning day. You're loved.
Travel Lighter
Daily Blessing
May you determine to travel lighter starting now. . May you—with your God-given authority in Christ—demand that the enemy shut his mouth and leave you alone. May you discern the baggage of man-made obligations and lay it down. May you decide to fling aside your own self-condemning thoughts and wrap yourself up in God's beautiful grace and righteousness instead. And, may you march on from here, full of faith, empowered by grace, and awakened by God's love, and walk as one who's been spoken for by God above. May your latter days be far more blessed than your former days. Jesus is always up to something new. Bless you!
Fresh Revelation
Daily Blessing
May Jesus bring a fresh revelation to your soul. May you suddenly understand—on a profoundly deep level—how precious you are to Him. May you listen for His voice and make the wise life-adjustments you need to make. There's an inheritance verse for you in scripture; may you search 'till you find it, and wield it precisely and powerfully. The enemy has no strength against God's living and active Word! You are not at the mercy of your circumstances, you're saturated in the mercies of Almighty God and they come to you new every single morning. Breathe in His promises, exhale your frustrations; wrap your arms around His grace and rest in the knowledge that you are never alone. May it be well with your soul today. Have a blessed and beautiful day.
A Noticeable Grace
Daily Blessing
May Jesus heal your heart so fully, so completely, that when you encounter persnickety, hard-to-love people, you're able to love them with a Christ-like love. May God's training in your life be so obvious and effective that when the enemy sends his arrows your way, you shut them down before they ever hit their mark. May you walk in such a noticeable, holy confidence that others can't help but ask about the hope within you. And may God's healing power be so prominent in your life that others begin to believe that miracles are possible for them too. You're a walking, living, breathing conduit of Christ's Kingdom! Blessings on your day today!
He's Enough for You
Daily Blessing
When you feel like you don't fit in, may you walk in faith because you have a place at the Table of Grace. When you feel like you're just not enough, may you remember that His Enough is more than enough for you. When you trip up and fall short, remember that He stoops down to make you great. And when you don't feel victorious, remember that you're already seated with Christ because He won the victory for you. Have a great day!
The Reality of Heaven
Daily Blessing
May the reality of heaven be tangible to you today. May you sense, like never before, the presence and the power of the living God. Jesus won the victory. He defeated death and sin. He made a public spectacle of the powers that oppose us. Though you have troubles and trials, you serve a strong and mighty God who means what He says, and does what He says He'll do. One day there'll be no more tears; no more war; no more hatred. Keep walking. Keep believing, because you're only passing through. You're heaven bound. Live like it's true today. A most blessed day to you
Look Up & Sing!
Daily Blessing
When you're tempted to look down in despair may you instead look UP and declare, "My God is for me, who can stand against me?" When you're tempted to whine and grumble may you instead dance and sing. When you're tempted to gossip or be petty, may you instead pray and intercede. God wants to bless the world through you! Look up today and rejoice. All of heaven is on your side.
What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31 niv)
Still Water Moments
Daily Blessing
May God lead you beside still waters and provide rest for your weary soul. May He set you right where you're thinking wrong. May He give you faith to embrace the YOU He's making you to be. And may He give you wisdom to stand and fight when your promised land depends on it. You have everything you need in Him. May God's rich blessings be yours this day!
Glimpses of Glory
Daily Blessing
May you begin to see your setbacks as temporary, your delays as detours, and your heartbreaks as opportunities to experience God's precious, powerful healing. And in the meantime, may God give you glimpses of glory, insights into His good plan for you. Be assured that God has never left your side; He'll never let you go. May God help you see with supernatural insight so that you won't be deceived by the enemy of your soul, or by your past painful filters, or by your fears of the future. In fact, right here--in this place--may your divine perspective hugely inspire your faith steps. You are mighty in God and He is mighty in you.
God's Perfect Peace
Daily Blessing
May God's peace mark your day in every way. May the Lord show you places in your life where you've let your guard down, let your thoughts wander, and let your peace slip away. May Jesus help you shore up your life once again. May you listen more closely to His voice and turn a deaf ear to the enemy. May you refuse thoughts and indulgences that only weaken you. Engage in all of the things that are good for your soul. Jesus loves you and He wants what's best for you. Have a peace-saturated day today!
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you (2 Thessalonians 3:16 NIV).
A Blessed Memorial Day
Daily Blessing
May we pause today and pray for the families of those who've paid the ultimate price for our freedom. May we look around and sincerely thank God for the freedoms we enjoy. May we regularly intercede for those who serve on the front lines to protect us. May we see ourselves first and foremost as Christians, filled with His Spirit, guided by His love, and empowered by His promises. Jesus paid the ultimate price so that we can live forever with Him. This is the day the Lord has made! Let us rejoice in His goodness and be known by His love. Have a blessed Memorial Day!

Steelhead About Ready To Go
Got a hankering to go steelhead fishing? If so, get some spawn bags tied up, clean up your reels, find the net and check your waders.
After the recent warm spell, the fish are about ready to head upstream. A check of the Betsie and Platte rivers today, and the Boardman River yesterday, indicate that some (a few) fish are up the rivers. The Betsie River is high, but not over the banks, from the old Homestead dam down to US-31. That is the best bet so far.
The Platte River, normally gin clear, is a bit high and has a light tinge of color to it. The Boardman River is about the same. A warm rain would put fish in all three nearby rivers in a matter of hours. What we don't need is an over-the-bank flooding because the fish can move in, spawn during high water and be gone before the water level goes down.
The water is cold, and whatever you choose to use should be fished as slowly and thoroughly as possible. Spawn bags and wigglers are the bait of choice but wax worms fished on a small teardrop jig and under a bobber can be deadly. Fish all live bait right down along bottom, and probe all potential holding locations from as many different positions as possible.
One or two casts usually doesn't work. Sometimes an angler can fish a hole or run for an hour before the presentation is dead perfect, and the fish may or may not hit. Cold water makes steelhead lethargic, but persistence can pay off.
It's a short blog tonight. Tune in again tomorrow night.

Happy Friday! I know we are all anxiously counting down the days until Christmas and New Years Eve, so hopefully this post gets you excited for all the upcoming time you're going to spend laying around in pajamas with your cats (no? just me?).
This week I'm shamelessly salivating over Nina Garcia's bedroom. We all know she's beyond fierce when it comes to fashion, so naturally I was elated to check out her Upper East Side apartment too (not creepy at all).
Y'all–Architectural Digest delivered the goods on this one. Every. Single. Room. Is. So. Fly. It's the grown-up apartment of my dreams. My love of chic tailoring, minimal accessorizing and the balance of masculine and feminine is well-documented at this point, and this home ticks all those boxes (though I do want it known that I prefer a more traditional kitchen, and I really wish I could sit on that bench). Nina's philosophy perfectly sums up everything I wanted to say about this room:
"When I come home, I need to feel instantly disconnected. In the rest of my life, I feel overstimulated. Here, I want things to be serene and unfussy, full of objects I love—but not too many of them."
Upholstered bed, $356
Bench, $265
Linens, $180
Throw, $19
Nightstand, $349
Lamps, $190 (set of 2, on sale until 12/15)
Print 1, $25 (unframed)

Rug, $399

The world is confronting an enormous economic decline and millions of people have lost life savings and homes, but to the Brussels federal parliament the issue of the day is denying Muslim women the right to wear the niqab or burqa in public. According to Daniel Bacquelain who proposed the new legislation which makes it a crime for a Muslim woman to wear these face coverings in public, he was taking a stand for freedom. "It is necessary that the law forbids the wearing of clothes that totally mask or enclose an individuals. Because, in his view, wearing the burqa in public is not compatible with an open liberal, tolerant society." Huh? How can there be an "open, liberal, tolerant society" if women can not wear clothes they choose to wear?
P.S. There are about 500,000 Muslims in Belgium and it is rare to find any woman wearing these garments. Is this much ado about nothing other than destroying a woman's right to wear what she desires?

The Bearcats announced Monday morning they will play the 2014 season at Paul Brown Stadium while Nippert Stadium undergoes renovations. Some logistical details still need to be worked out, but the two sides agreed to a deal to make it happen.
No, the Bearcats didn't have many other options, but this serves as the latest example of the relationship improving between these two sides. That's not just as observation regarding this deal. There have now been a series of events where the two have done things to help out there other.
The Bengals allowed the Bearcats to come practice down at the stadium in the spring while Marvin Lewis and Tommy Tuberville have developed a relationship. On the flip side, the Bearcats bubble has become the bad weather home of the Bengals.
These two sides haven't always been able to work out deals or act as the best of friends, but being able to come up with a deal that works for all involved in this situation is a great sign and one that will benefit all the UC fans. The bright side of games at PBS were the easy in, easy out, comfortable experience provided by the facility. For one year, it makes for the perfect home and eases the renovation transition.
Let's eat ...
--- The first play of the first scrimmage of the season opened up with what I believe will be a staple of this year's team. I have been talking about Brendon Kay's deep ball capabilities all offseason and he tossed a 75-yard bomb to Chris Moore to get the 2013 action going.
Who will be the most consistent deep threat is yet to be seen, but Kay's shown a remarkable ability to drop deep passes perfectly.
Eddie Gran had this to say about Kay taking ownership of the team:
"He's done a great job. He takes it personal and everything he does is about this team. I think the good part is that all the quarterbacks have done that. They are all leading in their own way. It's been neat to see and they are all competing. That's really good especially at that position. If you don't have that you don't have a chance."
--- Tommy G talked with Brendon Kay after practice. Also, here were Tommy T's comments after the scrimmage.
--- Speaking of competition at QB, continue to keep an eye on Bennie Coney, who threw four touchdowns working with the third team.
--- Tom Groeschen writes about how happy Tuberville has been with the training camp at Higher Ground.
--- Dan Hoard talks about new JuCo running backs Rod Moore and Hosey Williams. Their presence goes to explain why you can expect a deeper rotation of backs as the season begins which I talked about in this post last week.
--- Randomness ...
--- Are you a Homeland watcher? Here's the trailer for the new season.
--- Detroit Lions new kicker learned a lot of his English from Wu-Tang. True. I think we all learned new words from Wu-Tang.
--- Which only leads us to a little Wu-Tang Monday. Have a great one.

And just to follow up on your thought Guri, I think there IS a viable market out there for it.
Look at the lightsabers that are being made right now. Master Replicas isnt' making that many, they're chargings WAY more than what I think they're worth, they are accurate, and they're selling out in weeks.
So, I think the market is out there. And if people can make accurate stuff like we're seeing on the boards right now IN THEIR GARAGE, imagine what a real fabrication company could put out.
You'd just think that knowing how much Unkie George likes money and likes licenses, why he hasnt' explored this market yet.
We've already done all the research for him! hahaha

Upcoming Movie Release Dates
Monsters, Inc. 3D
Monsters, Inc., one of DisneyPixar's most beloved and visually imaginative feature films ever, returns to the big screen to delight a whole new generation of audiences and fans alike, this time in stunning 3D. The now-classic Academy Award-winning animated comedy adventure Monsters, Inc. is set in Monstropolis, a thriving company town where monsters of all shapes and sizes reside. Lovable Sulley (voiced by John Goodman) and his wisecracking best friend Mike Wazowski (voiced by Billy Crystal) are the top scare team at Monsters, Inc., the largest scream-processing factory. The main power source in the monster world is the collected screams of human children - and at Monsters, Inc., an elite team of scarers is responsible for gathering those precious natural resources. Believed by monsters to be toxic, children are strictly forbidden from entering Monstropolis. But when a little girl named Boo (voiced by Mary Gibbs) accidentally follows Sulley back into his world, he finds his career in jeopardy and his life in utter chaos. So pals Mike and Sulley plot to rectify the mistake and return Boo to her home. But when the trio encounters an unexpected series of complications, they become embroiled in a cover-up catapulting them into a mystery beyond their wildest dreams.
CAST: Billy Crystal, John Goodman, Mary Gibbs, Steve Buscemi, James Coburn, Jennifer Tilly

As Thanksgiving approaches, we have much to be thankful for. God has certainly blessed us this year. There are two missionary couples that have answered the call. Four new radio translators granted by the FCC. Space does not permit us to list everything that God has done in this short note, but I wanted to say that we are so thankful for your faithful partnership with us. God is moving in rural Alaska.

Several Public Catholic readers remarked on the fact that I went silent last week. Truth was, I just got overwhelmed and needed a time out. I promised you I'd write an explanation. A post I wrote for the National Catholic Register, covers a lot of what is happening with me.
Here's part of what I said:
It started as a routine mammogram.
I re-scheduled it several times for various trivial reasons, not the least of which is that I don't like going to the doctor. I never did like going to doctors all that much, but since I spend a huge portion of my life dealing with my 90-year-old mother's medical care, I like it even less.
I guess it would be safe to say that I've got medical care exhaustion. In fact, I've got care exhaustion. In fact, I'm just plain tired.
So I put the mammogram off. I scheduled and re-scheduled and dithered and delayed. I thought it was a bother and a waste of time and that there was no real reason for it since it would be negative on all counts.
I was bored and bothered throughout the whole uncomfortable deal when I finally made it in for the mammogram. I left the place happy that it was over and I wouldn't have to do it again. The lady who took the x-rays emphasized that I needed to come in every year. But I had no intention of going through that again next year. A few years would do. Who knew when I'd be back.
It turns out that I was back in a week. I almost didn't take the call. It was a number I didn't recognize, and I was, as usual, busy, busy. Butt after thinking about ignoring it, I picked up the phone and clicked. Long story short, there was a problem. A couple of days later, I was back.
It wasn't a quick exam, and it was, in fact, oddly impersonal. The doc and the tech kept going over the spot with the ultrasound, bearing down hard, and talking to one another. I wasn't involved. I was sore for days afterwards from all the poking.
I should have known something was up, just by their intensity, by the 45 minutes (I looked at my watch) that they spent staring at the screen and talking about my body. But I continued down la-la road.

I don't think a dissenting view has been removed or edited here.
You just happen to be among a large group who do not see things the way you do.
You seem disturbed by the fact that no one else has rallied behind you.
By the way Jerry I'm with you on the dogs are just animals bit. They are barely above cats... except chihuahuas which are barely above rodents.
Quote from: SgtMaj on April 29, 2009, 03:04:56 AMBy the way Jerry I'm with you on the dogs are just animals bit. They are barely above cats... except chihuahuas which are barely above rodents. So you would agree that if you saw your neighbor kicking the crap out of his dog everyday he should not be reported and hauled off to jail?
I wasn't trying to imply that any have, just that I think that some people may not be made to feel comfortable giving a dissenting view, and perhaps have learned that it's easier to keep friends if they keep quiet.**********Yes, a large non-political hobby group who all just happen to only express one political viewpoint... that should be the first sign that tips you off to groupthink going on.**********Some 51 or 52% of the voters voted for him... am I to believe it is coincidence that none of them are beekeepers? I don't think so.
There is group think going on. I asked my bees about the topic, and they pretty much all agreed with me.
hate to tell you,but Hannity is far from a communist.
Is there any facts to this circle or is the placement based solely on opinion? The latter I think.
These guys say what a lot of people think,which is why they are successful and talk radio like Air America went down the tubes. Conservative talk has a far wider audience everyday than liberal talk radio.The only reason NPR is still on is that it is government funded.(Thats right funded by the people that dont want to listen to it.Go figure.)
I think Obama should be set pretty close to the Communist line with wanting the federal government to take over privately held companies,take fronm the hard workers and give to those that do not want to work and have the government control the financial systems. He also wants to silence the conservative speak out there and the current Homeland security department considers returning war heroes as suspect for domestic terrorism.
Quote from: buzzbee on April 29, 2009, 06:49:47 PMhate to tell you,but Hannity is far from a communist.Well, I disagree.
From American Heritage:communism n. 1. a system characterized by the absence of social classes and by common ownership of production means. 2. a. The theory of revolutionary struggle toward communism. b. Socialism as exemplified in countries ruled by Communist parties.
What have you observed or heard from Sean Hannity that would give you the impression that he has communistic tendencies or beliefs? I find this puzzling. :?
To the contrary, some of the president's policies seem to be in line with communistic ideas, such as taking ownership of GM and some of the financial institutions. Of course, the argument could also be made that some of his tendencies could be construed as fascism, due to merging of government with business, with the exception of a lack of nationalism portrayed by him.

So today I took a barebones PC and installed Windows XP w/ Service Pack 3 DVD on it (the SP3 is part of the installation.)
So far so good except for one problem: The internet does not work.
Previously this PC used various versions of Ubuntu, Lubuntu, and Linux Puppy - all of them had no issues getting on the Internet.
I've gone online and searched for all possible resolutions to this issue.
First, I tried resetting Winsock - this did not work.
Next, I tried uninstalling the Service Pack 3 updates. Unfortunately there is no entry for uninstalling them likely because it was embedded during the installation process.
Has anyone run into this situation before? The box connects directly to a router and requires no user id/password and like I've said, several other versions of Linux had no issues with connecting straight after installation.
Another oddity surfaced also - which is probably not affecting this - but I noticed that Windows decided to reformat / relabel the C:\ drive as the I:\ drive now for whatever reason. Anyway of changing this back to C:\?
The only other thing I can think of is going to Fry's and purchasing a wireless adapter and see if I can connect that way. I'd really hate to do if a direct connection is already available.

Aw good luck out there man. I just lost my roommate in Iraq.
What would some cheap $ but good quality shocks be? And what are sways?
Also what are some good tires and maybe wheels too sorry i really dont know any of this stuff... thanx for the help tho
I'm kind of surprised nobody mentioned anything about mudflaps yet... of course, you also have to have 4 or more Hella lights custom mounted on a bar of some sort across the front of your car. Make sure you have plenty of logos and decals on it and the brighter colors you can paint it, the better. Also, wear a helmet everywhere you drive. Make sure you never wash it. A true rally car is dirty all the time. I've never seen a winch on a Subaru before, but that might be a nice touch. Make sure the tire-to-wheel ratio is appropriate - use the smallest wheel you can fit on there with the biggest possible tire. It's going to be tough to clear the 07 brake calipers... you'll be lucky to find a set of 16" wheels that will work. Maybe a few random antennas would look cool too. Or a spare gas tank mounted externally for further aesthetic appeal. OH!!! Paint the thing camoflauge! That's definitely better than bright colors. Instead of an internal roll cage, you could build a sweet exo-cage. Man, you could really have some fun building that thing. Be sure to post pics if you actually do any of that stuff. I think the documentation of a rally car build would be a nice change of pace for this site as everybody seems to be transforming their Scoobs into nasty street machines.
Very sorry to hear about your friend. I have been lucky and come back from two trips. Sways= sway bars. Having a wagon I would look into the whiteline swaybars. They offer several sizes and are a great quality part. As far as endlinks I would also go to rallitek for their endlinks. Som bracing or stiffening up would do well for the car. There are several different braces that can stiffen up the car as well as bushings to get rid of the rubber mounts through out the car. I cant really help with shocks or coilovers becuase most applications I know are for the street, not the gravel. The tires mentioned above and the theory behind the wheels is what you want to follow.
Power wise search and find Engine management first. The two best out there are opensource and the Cobb AP. Once you figure that out you can go for the exhaust and other modifications.
Heres a helpful link for beginners that mod their car:Unabomber's Manifesto - NASIOC
Dont feel bad about asking, thats why we are here, and to be honest your subject is a little of the beaten path (yes pun intended, lol). Good luck with it all.

The Utah Highway Patrol says overheated brakes on a car-hauling trailer likely caused a fire that damaged two automobiles Wednesday morning on Interstate 80.
UHP Cpl. Todd Johnson said a semi-rig was hauling two trailers loaded with vehicles about 5:20 a.m. on westbound I-80 in Echo Canyon when the brakes on the second trailer locked and the driver saw the flames and smoke. He managed to detach the burning trailer and firefighters quickly arrived to douse the blaze.
No injuries were reported, but the incident did close down all but one lane of westbound travel at the scene for a couple hours.

I'm sure that many of my Excel users know how valuable it can be at times to see formulas in your worksheet instead of their calculated values.
I mean, sometimes you just need to verify that everything is calculated the way you need it and often the easiest way to accomplish the task is to double-check the formula.
So… it stands to reason that Excel would include a way to display the formulas on a worksheet for you to inspect. And, of course they do.
For those of you using older versions of MS Excel you can find the instructions for getting Excel to display formulas instead of values in our archives at this address:
Now, for my Excel 2007 readers… did you find it yet?
The option is still there, you just have to know where to find it.
You need to get to Excel's options through the Office button.
Once in the Excel Options dialog window go to the Advanced options.
Scroll down to the Display options for this worksheet section.
Verify that the sheet you want to affect is selected in the gray title bar.
Now select the option for Show formulas in cells instead of their calculated results.
Click OK.
When returned to your worksheet you should see numbers only where an actual numeric data piece is located, text and formulas.
Time to get busy editing… yeah, I know, more work to do but hopefully this will make it easier.
~ April
