I have some hypertrophic scarring from acne on my upper back and my doctor injected them with kenalog and it flattened them out. I am still unhappy with the texture and there is still some discoloration.
My doctor recommended Fraxel, will it work to help out with the textural problems?

Dees for Davey
AARON Davey's left foot is deadly. Deadly is the word indigenous people use to describe excellence. And his nick-name is Flash. Some Melbourne officials got him to run an impromptu 100 metres after training one night and clocked him at 10.8 seconds. So when Flash and his deadly left foot enter a game, things happen. Games that seem set as hard as concrete are suddenly cracked apart.
Last night, Davey won the Melbourne best and fairest, the Keith "Bluey" Truscott Medal. Some people see Davey as a future Melbourne captain. The Melbourne Football Club is being rebuilt out of belief - specifically, Jim Stynes' beliefs about the club - and Davey is a true believer.
Davey's father died when he was a boy of nine. He and his four siblings - including brother Alwyn, known as Frog, now playing for Essendon - were brought up in Darwin by their mother, Lizzie. Lizzie Davey was the first woman to be made a life member of the Palmerston Football Club. Aaron is a big supporter of Palmerston, his father's old club. Daveys have played in five premierships there. He'd been rejected by two other clubs, the Kangaroos and Port Adelaide, who thought him too small, before he came to the Demons. Davey sees Melbourne as the club which gave him a chance. From the time he walked in the door, he wanted only to play for this one club.
Aaron is the third of five kids. The two eldest were sisters. The two youngest, one of whom is Alwyn, were twins. Aaron says the day Alwyn was drafted was one of the happiest of his life. He was watching it on TV - even before Alwyn's name was called out, he knew he'd been selected. The worst moment of Aaron's career was finding himself playing on his younger brother when Essendon played the Aboriginal All-Stars in Darwin. Aaron Davey is all about family. In one of his first games, he found himself playing on his older cousin, Gavin Wanganeen. ''That was one of the most awkward feelings of my life.'' He shrugs. ''But that's footy.''
Davey says 2009 is his most consistent season so far. Why? "Because I got a good pre-season." For the first time in three seasons, he played every game. And, in the second match of the year, coach Dean Bailey put him in the midfield. Davey made his name playing as a small forward, running down opposition backmen, catching them like prey. Now everyone is doing it, or expected to be doing it. With time, he found playing as a small forward hard. "Small forward in a losing team is one of the hardest positions in footy," he says. "The ball hardly comes up there. You can get lost."
Before Davey's first game in the midfield, captain James McDonald gave him some advice: "Be yourself - play your instinctive game." That was like telling a man in a Ferrari his tank is full of petrol. Davey got 30 touches that week, as opposed to 11 in the opening round. In round three, which also happened to be his 100th game, he got another 30 touches.
Throughout the year, his form fluctuated. He was soon being tagged. Even when the impediments put in his way were legal, he had to run an awful lot. Sometimes you'd see him between plays, hands on knees, looking spent. He's a sprinter. This game's about marathons - midfielders run about 15 kilometres a game - and then there's the larger marathon that is the season as a whole. The team finished last but in most of Melbourne's best moves for the year, Davey was somewhere to be seen, usually supplying the finishing touch.
Headlines a month ago suggested Davey might be leaving Melbourne. That would have been a disaster for the club of bushfire proportions. With the departure of Russell "Robbo" Robertson, Davey and Liam Jurrah are the Dees' entertainers. Every team must excite, especially struggling ones seeking crowds. But his value to Melbourne goes beyond his abilities as a player.
In 2009, the Dees had six indigenous players known to themselves and everyone else at the club as "the brothers". Davey was their leader and while a lot of people were involved in Jurrah's sensational debut season (they became known as Team Liam), Davey was critical in making Jurrah feel at home with Melbourne. But Davey gives credit for Jurrah's season to coach Dean Bailey and "the fitness boys". "He hadn't trained with the intensity we do in his life. They got him up and ready to play by round 12".
But Davey's role at the club goes beyond the indigenous players. He's a bridge between white and black, and confident in both worlds. In the rooms, you often see him talking to supporters and, just as importantly, supporters' kids. He wants to work in the area of indigenous health and with indigenous children when he finishes playing footy. He's already acted as an ambassador for the Fred Hollows Foundation and this year, after a conversation he had with Melbourne director Karen Hayes, the club started an indigenous scholarship.
If Melbourne is to create some exciting fusion out of the talent that is now available to it, Davey is crucial. He says, "At Melbourne, we're all one together. We're all becoming really good mates." He goes on: "You get closer when you're on the bottom. You have to build trust. We've still got areas to work on, but we've come a long way with building the trust levels among one another."
Davey says Jim Stynes "is the most respected bloke at our club". Respect is one of the biggest words in the indigenous vocabulary and it is one of the most important ways in which footy culture and indigenous culture overlap. Of Stynes, Davey says simply, "He's our leader."
The climactic moment of the 2009 season for the Dees was what I call the Jim Stynes match. Big Jim had been diagnosed with cancer earlier in the week. The team was in disarray, having shown no confidence since being bedazzled by Collingwood a month before. Melbourne had to stand up. If it didn't, the Stynes revival was as good as over. Melbourne would be exposed as being exactly what its critics say it is - a club without passion or belief.
In its way, it was a grand final. It felt like one in that it was drenched with meaning, in that many had to play well to create the end result so that afterwards it did not seem like the match was decided by a single moment but many. The fact it was the bottom team playing the second bottom team was irrelevant. The Dees won. The supporters went silly and the players were led off by James McDonald and Davey holding aloft Stynes' guernsey. If I were to write a book about Melbourne in 2009, a photograph of that moment would be on the cover.
"We went out to do it for Jimmy and show we were with him in a way," said Davey. "To carry off Jimmy's jumper with James McDonald at the end was very special to me."
A month or so ago in Darwin, Davey was shocked to read a newspaper story saying that he was leaving the Dees. "I was pretty filthy about that." He describes the negotiations over his contract as stressful. But the end result of the drama was him being given a four-year contract. That means he'll play 10 years for the club and be awarded life membership. That was one of his aims when he came to the club.
I had previously asked him what he thought of McDonald as captain. "He's honest," he replied. "And when it's his turn to go, he always goes." I asked him if he would like to captain Melbourne.
"You'd have to be silly to say no. You'd have the oldest club in the AFL captained by someone from the oldest culture in Australia."

Does your flat iron have temperature control? I have baby fine hair, and have had decent luck using a Sedu Revolution at the lowest heat setting.
I've tried some different heat protectants, and so far the only one I've been really impressed with has been Aveda Brilliant __something__, but I'm not wild about the smell after ironing.
Curly Hair Solutions ReMane Straight seemed to protect my hair well, but I was able to wet it and have my curls return. I haven't used it in humid weather, so I don't know from personal experience how well it works then. I'm afraid I tried blowfrying first, and that was a total fiasco for me, as I don't have a dryer with a wind tunnel effect. As I so rarely feel a desire to wear my hair straight, I haven't had occasion to try it again yet, but will, as I've generally had very good luck with their products.

"Very good! I peeled the squash and cut it into small chunks and then mixed everything together and baked it."

"Excellent recipe, leftovers are good too. The only thing I will do different next time is to line the pan with foil since it took so long to clean."

The February 7th Thursday Live! show is going to be classic. We're presenting an evening of classical music featuring guitarist Matt Grasso with Trio Seven and cellist Dan Barker.
Thursday Live! is a continuing series of concerts held the first Thursday of each month at the Davis Odd Fellows Hall located at 415 Second Street. All shows are free and open to all ages. The shows start at 7:30.
Now in its third year, Trio Seven is an all extended 7-string ensemble that covers a range of styles, from baroque to romantic to impressionistic to modern.
Trio Seven will perform works by Dvorak, Rachmaninov, Debussy, Stravinsky, Satie, Bach, Brahms, Bizet, and Grasso, as well as famous movie themes from the 30s to present day. In addition to classical masterworks, they also incorporate improvisation works.
San Francisco eleven-string guitarist Jon Mendle has praised the ensemble, saying, "Trio Seven plays refreshingly innovative arrangements and compositions with great energy and sensitive musicianship. They honor the guitar, yet successfully push it beyond its usual limits."
Trio Seven was founded in 2010 when Davis guitarist and composer Matthew Grasso inaugurated a new ensemble aesthetic with his composition 7th Creation. A unique collaboration featuring three extended 7-string guitars, Trio Seven seeks to expand the repertory of the instrument through transcription and original works. Its current members are Matthew Grasso, Matthew Foley, and Harry Stoddard. For up-to-date information regarding bookings, visit www.trioseven.com.
Dan Barker, a native of Ohio, began to study cello at age 9. His primary teachers have been Linda Unkefer (Milwaukee Symphony), DonWhite (Cleveland Orchestra), David Chickering (Chicago Symphony), Crispin Campbell and Andor Toth.
He has attended festivals such as the Indiana String Academy with Richard Aaron and Nancy Snustad, the Weathersfield Music Festival with Roland and Almida Vamos, and also has participated in Improvisational and Non-Classical workshops such as Music for People with David Darling and the New Direction Festival with Tim White.
Dan has had a private cello studio for over ten years and has been teaching in Davis for the past five. Although he doesn't abide strictly by any one teaching method, he has had teacher training in the Orff and Suzuki methods and draws from these along with others in order to best suit each student.
All donations collected from our shows go directly to the musicians.

Great breakfast and great location. Toscanis restaurant is awesome also. Gym is ok . Bathrooms and bathroom products are great. Having a fridge is good also No ironing board or iron , no desk in the room. Rooms are tired and pokey - choose your room type carefully - you get what you pay for here - some suites are ippukrnt other single rooms are like prison cells.
Quiet, comfortable, great breakfast, great location, pleasant staff, free guidebook in room, luxurious towels Not sure the design concept is worth paying more for. My single room wasn't terribly attractive and some design features, such as the bathroom sink were impractical (very shallow sink). Room temperature wasn't adjustable to make it cool enough.
The gym was very dull - treadmill positioned facing a white wall, no tv screens. Water was supposedly provided in the gym, however it was out when I visited, it did not seem any maintenance had been done in the gym that day. Breakfast was not very interesting either, cold cuts but very low on greens.
Personnel&services, design, business lunch offer Water in shower has a specific smell. Usual for centers of all cities, but still. Could they do something about it? Filtering?
exebition the absence of a child's room
Good location, nice staff, style and comfort design, original tasty and organic breakfast! Too noise night club during weekend nights,differents between rooms in one category (Envi+).
Central, breakfast, design The room was smaller than expected. Also, we were worken up early on Sunday morning by drilling and hammering.
Excellent location! Service and accommodations were excellent.
Central Location, friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere
Das sky Loft zum Garten war wirklich scchön Vorsicht wenn sie ein Zimmer zur Straße haben!! Der Lärm hat mich bis 4 Uhr nachts nicht schlafen lassen..... Bis auf die wenigen Zimmer zum Garten nicht empfehlenswert wenn man lärmempfindlich ist
Very good location, convenient parking (20% discount, though not cheap still), very helpful personnel, good sound proofing, overall very good impression! Next time will deffinitely stay in this hotel. Central air conditioning with no option to change air flow. We had a kid with us so it was critical. The issue was quickly solved at the first request: we changed the room to the one with different vent positioning. No tea pot in the room.
Good design, convenient location Place real foto to the site, because we were dissapointed of the room size
I liked the design and location and spa no
we've booked smoking room, but there were only 6 smoking rooms and all of them were occupied
Perfect location, basically next to the most famous and central hotel in Helsinki. The breakfast buffet was excellent. My room in the new section of the hotel was nice, but my "view" was the roof of another part of the building.
Although it was quite busy, the breakfast was excellent. As we requested a twin room, we ended up with a room that handicap accessible so it was very spacious. Beds were very comfortable. Wifi worked well.
breakfast was substandard breakfast
Great location, extremely friendly and professional staff, clean rooms, great breakfast. Overall, an excellent value for the money.
Tasty breacfast.perfect location to the railway station and shops It was too cool in the room.
The Hotel staff is very kind. The hotel is very modern and trendy and it's located in a very nice area of town.
very close to the center of the city a bit small room
nice location. near tram station metro station and rail way station. easy to go anywhere. there was a mark of the lipstick at the glass.
Excellent central location Nothing to mention
great location, nice breakfast, super security, very clean room, stylish decor, front desk manager and staff were super. They offer a loaner laptop at the front desk! Bathroom lighting a bit dim
This is an excellent, real five star hotel without unnecessary commotion coming from having numerous bars/restaurants in the property. The location could not be better for tourism, shopping or business. The view from rooms that face the South Harbour is magnificent. The staff is unusually friendly and efficient. Rooms are stylish and their quality corresponds well with the name of the hotel. Honestly, it is extremly difficult to find a nicer hotel in Finland. Very warmly recommended! During the "rush hour" breakfast room is a bit tiny. Hot dishes are charged separately, which is a bit unusual at this level, if breakfast is included.
Room Noise from air condition
The location is very good, staff is friendly.
The location is excellent, near the park and the market square as well as the best shops and restaurants. The interior design is very stylish, yet cozy. The hotel is very quiet and the beds were perfect. The staff is friendly and helpful. It was nice to have breakfast in the covered inner courtyard.
excellent location, super comfort No
Good location, right in the center of the city The restaurant where we had breakfast wasnt very comfortable. Firstly to get to the restaurant u have go through the small court ... we were not very glad cause didnt take our coats with us and the weather was - 14 C. Secondly the first hall of the restaurant where u can take food was very small and lots of people were waiting their turn to get breakfast.
One of the best places I've ever been to!
Boutique character is much appreciated Windows cannot be opened
quiet and comfortable outrageously expensive minibar, bad smell in the hall and very poor selection for the breakfast
Close club and cafe... Yes ,room tv system was not working properly that's why I changed my children room ..Technical team was weak I guess.
comfort breakfast was not like 5 star hotel, very poor .....
Very good location, near railway-station, bus-station, Kamppi-center, many shops, cafes, restaurants, and places of interests. Very duty room, very bad cleaning of the room.
The staff of Hotel Kamp made the experience wonderful! They were welcoming and friendly, patiently explaining proper procedure for using the sauna, providing extra robes and towels. The sauna itself was spotless and soothing, with the staff quietly appearing every few minutes to remove soiled towels and drinking glasses, and refill the complimentary water and gloggi pitchers. Our deluxe room was also spotless and beautiful. When we returned to our room after supper, the staff had come in to turn down the beds. They also folded the clothes we had tossed on the bed, laid cloths and Kamp slippers next to the bedside where we would first step in the morning. Candy and a water bottle was on each side of the bed as well. Even the trash container in the bathroom had been recently emptied and the first sheet of toilet paper had been refolded to a point. It showed an attention to detail I have never experienced in a hotel before. In addition we dined for our Christmas Eve dinner in the Kamp Brasserie. The food was exceptional, the smoked salmon delicious, the goose leg tender and succulent! For dessert they accommodated my request to switch desserts from the prearranged Christmas menu to another selection, my favorite Snow Egg. Overall, the dining experience was relaxed, unhurried, quiet with an occasional live entertainment of Christmas carols. We had a wonderful time. Next year I intend to fly my sons and their wives to Finland to spend Christmas with me at the Hotel Kamp! The restaurant encloses the sidewalk in glass to expand the available seating area. We were seated next to the temporary glass wall, and a cool breeze could be felt near our feet throughout the meal. We weren't cold, but we needed to wrap our shawls around our shoulders to stay comfortable. The doors to the saunas squeaked and could use a squirt of WD40.
the hotel is perfect breakfast price
We estimated the location of the hotel. It was very convenient to get favorite shops.We iiked a spacious room in classic style.
No breakfast included in the price, even though it was a high price..
location no
The hotel is beautiful, right downtown. You can easily walk to the old district and see the cathedrals, and there are many great restaurants nearby. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, helping us find stuff to see and arranging transportation. The room itself was very comfortable. I had no problems with this hotel, I would absolutely recommend it.
Quality of the room, luxury, friendly and helpful staff, location
We enjoyed the comfort of the room, the service and professionalism of the staff, excellent!!!
The hotel is new, the room was clean and spacious. Fantastic shower, big flat-screen TV, good breakfast, helpful staff Hard to find any fault. There is no restaurant at the hotel, but there is a good restaurant 2 minutes away.
Our room was very big and perfectly equipped. I also liked the design in black and white a lot, it gives a very modern impression. Besides, the hotel looks brand new! They have very comfortable long breakfast hours and a nothing is missing from the buffet. Staff was very eager and always around. Also on every occasion exceptionally friendly!
A central hotel with very nice staff. a clean, cozy and modern hotel with a tasty breakfast with a lot to choose from. None
Very friendly personnel, beautiful design, very cosy atmosphere.Quiet and good location. Breakfast area was little bit small
Hotel is located near central market square on a quiet street. Staff is friendly, room spacious and clean. Equipped with a very good bad. Brekfast area is very small, no hot food for brekfast except porridge. There is no car parking at the hotel so we used on located down the street and it costed 30 euros per day!
TV internet service
Perfect hotel that combines style and practicality. Excellent location: heart of the centre and all better gourmet restaurants, bars and clubs are within walking distance.
About a 15-20 minute walk from the train station, Hotel Fabian is perfectly situated for easy site seeing. Restaurants and shopping are close by. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel Fabian seemed to be more of a business Hotel, but even though I was a leisure traveler, I loved my stay. It was quiet and that made the stay more enjoyable. The daily breakfast was delicious and fresh.
Central location quality of the room
Friendly staff, good service. Compared to other hotels of the same category, room is a bit more spacious.
we did like the hotel very much! perfect city-centre location, charming hotel staff and delicious food. thank you very much
Good buffet breakfast
Staff efficiency, readiness to assist. Breakfast was excellent! It is not Hotel's staff fault, but I wish the view was onto the street and, unfortunately, there is no balconies (but this is the question to the architect)
It's proximity to the centre of Helsinki. Room was a bit on the small side.
Excellent location in centre of city, very adequate bedroom, very good buffet breakfast, friendly and helpful staff
Quality of towels and breakfast Strong smell of sigarettes in the room, uncomfortable furniture
it has a good position,means it's near to the centre of the city and the railwaystation
The hotel is very close to the heart of the city. i thought it should renew the dighn of the room because it was a little bit oldish
Rich breakfast buffet, kind staff
The llocation si ver y good but the re aré a lot of opciones near The rooms aré dirty ,they dont care about quality in house keeping
Location, comfort, facilities.
Clean and fast check-in and -out The hairdryer did not work and we could not reach someone of the staff (Sa evening). We could not deposit our luggage on sunday.
The hotel is well located. The room was dirty at our arrival. Quite strange for a four stars hotel... Pity
Good breakfast, good central location Hotel nightclub - does not finish until 3.45am and very noisy
The restaurant Fransmanni. The operating time of restaurant - until 23.00 and of parking until 24.00.
Excellent staff, very good location in the city center, quiet room, good breakfast, very comfortable beds.
Some problems with room-cards. It was out of work about 10 times during 2 days.
Nice, Clean room. Great central location. Good buffet breakfast
conveniently situated for a morning's sightseeing, rooms OK, bar at hotel. Long queue for check-out or a simple question: cost us precious time.
Location is good, near city center. The rooms are very small and the furniture is old and very basic (ikea style, but worse).
Room was very comfortable. Hotel has a very central location, easy to get to the harbor and train station.
close to railway station and center price, no minibar in room
The location was very good, very central in general and not far away from our conference place. The breakfast was good. Bed was comfortable. I don't understand, why the architect decided to spend half of the space in the bathroom to build a shelf, but for toilet and shower he/she almost didn't leave any space left. Furthermore, the entire bathroom was flooded, when one person took a shower ...The sleeping room was very small. Not worthy to pay almost 200,- for one night.
It's located very close to Kaisaniemi park, where Tuska Open Air (the venue will be changed next year!) was held. I stayed at this hotel for 5days. The breakfast time was changed without prior announcement. I missed breakfast because of it. I won't stay at this hotel forever.

Standards Pave the Way to Programmatic Video
Online video is abuzz, and advertisers are taking note. Whether it be last Sunday's Meet the Press or the latest corgi video, consumers are turning to the Internet for content at increasing numbers. However, online videos advertising has proved less than inventive.
The benefits of online video are hardly arguable. With a growing consumer base, similarities to television creative and a much lower overhead, online video offers many opportunities for advertisers; but what about programmatic buying and selling?
Bob Arnold, Kellogg Company's Associate Director of Global Digital Strategy, says programmatic video is the future; and, in short, investment should be growing with the increased pace of consumers viewing online video. But one of the culprits holding up progress is our old friend standardization, or lack of adoption of said standards.
"While the industry has made broad strides in standardization such as VAST and VPAID — not all video publishers follow the standard," he writes. "While I'm sure publishers have their reasons, from an advertiser perspective this only makes things confusing and scares investment away because we can't measure online video uniformly. Without standard measures, marketers won't understand the effectiveness of online video or which partners are most valuable."

Demo Leader SF Congress Rep Pelosi Defends Israel's Criminal War On Gaza And Palestinians
Democratic party leader Congress women Nancy Pelosi is supporting the criminal attack on the Palestinian people and Gaza. The attack is supported by US Democratic party and is funded by the US tax payer. Obama and previous pro-Zionist administrations provide the F-16 jets, bombs and other war material the US gives to Israel for its war on the Palestinians and to support the expansion of settlements and apartheid Israel
Demo Leader SF Congress Rep Pelosi Defends Israel's Criminal War On Gaza And Palestinian People
Gaza tension: Obama calls Netanyahu, Morsi
US President Barack Obama has called the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his Egyptian counterpart Mohamed Morsi Isa El-Ayyat, in an effort to de-escalate tension in the region. This was Obama's second telephone calls to the two leaders this week with tension between Israelis
Washington, November 17, 2012
and the Hamas flaring up, with all indication that it is escalating.
In his call with Netanyahu on Friday, Obama reiterated American support for Israel's right to defend itself, and expressed regret over the loss of Israeli and Palestinian civilian lives.
"The two leaders discussed options for de-escalating the situation," the White House said in a statement.
Commending Egypt's efforts to de-escalate the situation, Obama in his call with Morsi hoped that these efforts would be successful.
"The President expressed regret for the loss of Israeli and Palestinian civilian lives, and underscored the importance of resolving the situation as quickly as possible to restore stability and prevent further loss of life," White House said.
Obama also reached out to the Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan to discuss the escalating violence in Israel and the Gaza Strip, a presidential statement said, adding, the two leaders shared their concerns about the dangers to civilian populations on both sides and expressed their common desire to see an end to the violence.
"The President and Prime Minister agreed that the continued spiral of violence jeopardizes prospects for a durable, lasting peace in the region. The President underscored his commitment to advancing the goal of Middle East peace.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who is travelling to South East Asia also reached out to her counterparts in Israel, Egypt and Turkey as part of the American effort to e-escalate the tension and prevent it from any further flaring up.
"In all cases, her message has been the same, that we are urging a de-escalation of this conflict. We are urging those countries with influence on Hamas and other groups in Gaza to use that influence to get a de-escalation," the State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland told reporters at her daily news conference.
"As you know, rockets are continuing to be launched from Gaza, including today. We support, as Israel's right to self-defence, and we obviously express our regret and sadness for the loss of life on all sides," Nuland said.
"It is a matter of the international community, and particularly regional states with influence, to do what they can to make clear to Hamas that this is not benefiting the cause of the Palestinian people and it's certainly not benefiting the cause of regional stability," she added.
US lawmakers strongly came up in support of Israel.
"With Israel under assault, Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle have made it clear: Israel has a right to defend herself as a nation," the Democratic Party leader, Nancy Pelosi, said.
US House of Representative passed a resolution expressing vigorous support and unwavering commitment to the welfare, security, and survival of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state with secure borders, and recognising and strongly supporting its right to act in self-defence to protect its citizens against designated foreign terrorist organisations and their supporters.
The bipartisan resolution was introduced by lawmakers Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Howard L Berman (D-CA), Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Meanwhile Nobel Women's Initiative yesterday called for the immediate end to the escalating violence in Israel and Palestine, and urged all sides to ensure the protection of civilians—particularly women and children—is made a priority within the current conflict.
"We are deeply concerned by intensification in recent attacks by both Israel and Hamas, in the Gaza Strip, since a rocket missile killed a top Hamas military leader in Gaza City on November 14. That same day, Israeli missiles claimed the lives of a number of civilians, including children. Gaza has fired missiles in return towards the cities of Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, both large population centres," the Nobel Women's Initiative said in a statement.
The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) called on Obama to demand that a cease fire in the Palestinian/Israeli conflict which was broken by a series of aerial bombings in the Gaza strip be immediately restored.
"If our nation does not take immediate action, we fear that not only would many more innocent lives be lost, but that the violence could have a lasting negative impact across the entire region," said ISNA Secretary General Safaa Zazour.

First Uranium (TSE:FIU)(JSE:FUM) said Monday that it will seek approval to reduce staffing and cut costs at its Ezulwini Mine in South Africa, as it struggles with production issues at a site that has seen three fatal accidents this year.
The company, which has seen its shares fall by about 86 percent for the year to date, said its plan could affect almost half of the 3,745 workers at the mine.
Monday, First Uranium shares were down five percent to $0.175.
First Uranium will seek approval for the job cuts under the South African Labour Relations Act, the company said in a statement.
The company's operation at the Mine Waste Solutions tailings reprocessing project is not involved in the process being undertaken at the Ezulwini Mine.
First Uranium president and CEO, Deon van der Mescht, said: "While the company continues to believe in the inherent value and potential of the Ezulwini Mine, decisive action is required in order to stem ongoing operating losses.
"Although it is the holiday season and the timing is unfortunate, management has determined that action must be taken now to mitigate the effects of the Christmas shut down and provide employees with an opportunity to increase productivity levels while reaching a consensus around the nature and scope of changes necessary to implement the new operating plan."
The mine has been the site of several accidents, including one in September which killed a drill operator -- the fourth death in the last 15 months.
"The extremely unfortunate fatal accidents in the latter half of the calendar year have had a significant impact on employee morale and productivity, and as such the expected improvement in production has not been forthcoming," van der Mescht said.
The new operating plan for the Ezulwini Mine will focus on safety and improving mine efficiency, the company said.
First Uranium is a gold and uranium producer. In November, it posted a loss of $30.6 million, or 14 cents per share, compared to a year-earlier loss of $58 million or 32 cents per share.
Revenues rose 62 percent to $50.2 million from $30.3 million in the year-ago period.

Pioneer Investments and Santander Asset Management to join forces creating a leading global asset manager
Pioneer Investments and Santander Asset Management to join forces creating a leading global asset manager
- Preliminary agreement reached to combine Pioneer Investments and Santander Asset Management resulting in a global asset manager with €400 billion in assets under management
- The company will be called Pioneer Investments and will rank among the top 35 firms globally and top 10 in Europe by assets
- Pioneer Investments valued at €2.75 billion and Santander Asset Management at €2.60 billion
Milan, April 23, 2015
UniCredit, Santander, and affiliates of Warburg Pincus and General Atlantic (together the "Private Equity Firms") have signed a preliminary and exclusivity agreement to combine Pioneer Investments ("Pioneer") and Santander Asset Management ("SAM") to create a leading global asset manager.
Juan Alcaraz, current CEO of Santander Asset Management, will be the Global Chief Executive Officer, and Giordano Lombardo, current CEO and Group Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Pioneer Investments, will be the Global CIO of the new company.
The combined firm, with approximately €400 billion in assets under management, will be one of the preeminent asset managers in Europe, as well as a comprehensively global firm with capabilities and client relationships around the world. The partnership between the two firms will provide for substantially enhanced economies of scale, a key advantage in the asset management industry, while also expanding the business's diversification with respect to investment strategies, distribution channels and region. The combined firm will have robust market share based on deep client relationships in a wide range of markets including both growing and established regions, covering institutional, wholesale third party, and proprietary channels.
Building on a strong growth trajectory with total combined net inflows of over €25 billion in 2014, the combined company will have improved growth potential owing to an increasingly independent profile and a broader set of investment solutions to meet client needs across all channels worldwide.
Pioneer and SAM bring largely complementary platforms, investment capabilities, and client relationships, resulting in a more complete range of solutions and services to the benefit of all clients. Through this strategic transaction, the combined firm will be committed to maintaining the continuity and repeatability of its investment processes that have served clients well over multiple market cycles.
Furthermore, it will offer an expansive global distribution footprint, with a presence in over 30 countries and exposure to both growing and well-established regions such as Latin America, North America, Asia, as well as a leading position in Europe. In addition to Pioneer and SAM's longstanding institutional and wholesale third-party relationships, long-term distribution agreements withUniCredit and Santander will result in unparalleled retail distribution capabilities in Europe and Latin America.
The preliminary agreement will lead to the establishment of a holding company, with the name Pioneer Investments, which will control Pioneer's US operations along with the combination of Pioneer and SAM's operations outside the US. UniCredit and the Private Equity Firms will each own 50% of the holding company, which will in turn own 100% of Pioneer US, and 66.7% of the combination of Pioneer and SAM's operations outside the US, while Santander will directly own the remaining 33.3% stake. The combined firm will continue to operate as one global entity, led by a single global management team, focusing on meeting the needs of its clients worldwide.
The agreement is based on an Enterprise Value of €2.75 billion for Pioneer Investments and €2.60 billion for Santander Asset Management (including its 49.5% stake in AllFunds Bank). Furthermore, the transaction is estimated to enhance UniCredit's capital position by approximately 25 basis points.
Following the signing of the preliminary agreement, the parties will work towards signing a definitive agreement subject to the customary regulatory and corporate approvals.
Pioneer Investments
Pioneer is a leading global asset manager with a presence in 28 countries and an experienced team of over 2,000 employees, including more than 350 investment professionals. Pioneer is known nternationally as one of the leading fixed income managers across all strategies, and offers strong capabilities in European, US and global equities, as well as multi-asset and outcome-oriented, nontraditional products.
Pioneer manages €225 billion in assets, evenly split between proprietary distribution via UniCredit on one side, and intermediary and institutional clients globally on the other. In 2014, Pioneer had over €13 billion global net sales, and ranked among the top 5 highest selling asset managers in Europe and 10th worldwide.

Book of Mormon Stories (Beginning Reader)
by LDS Distribution Center
Product Description
By Jeremy & Amy, Submitted on 2016-05-20
Originally I bought the English and Russian version together to teach me Russian on my mission. Now that we have children we read from this almost every night and our kids, 7,5 & 2 love to listen to the stories or ream them themselves! This has been a great teaching tool and is getting out kiddos into good habits to read daily.
By Brian, Submitted on 2015-02-25
My kids, ages 9 and 7, were really struggling with nightly scripture study. As much as I tried to relate the stories to them, they would loose interest fairly quickly and the majority of time would be spent trying to keep their attention. Early this year, my wife and I decided to switch to Book of Mormon Stories. The pictures, simplified language, and short chapters hold their attention and the books do a great job of handling complex scenes in a child-friendly manner without being overly-simplified. We started Old Testament Stories a couple of weeks ago. My kids love reading the Friend magazine and now they love reading the scriptures too. While we still use the traditional scriptures for FHE lessons, these books have been invaluable for nightly family scripture study!
By Robert, Submitted on 2015-02-25
My kiddos ages 4-7 can learn the basics of the scripture stories with this book. So that when they get old enough to read the actual scriptures they have an idea of what the story is teaching. My kids love reading along each night with these books. They have learned valuable lessons from them as well!
By Rebecca, Submitted on 2015-02-25
I just recently bought this book so that my kids can understand scripture study better. They are only 2 and 3 and already they are understanding the basic stories and ideas. It's always nice to have pictures to go along with the stories.
By Patricia, Submitted on 2015-02-25
My nine year old received this book two weeks ago and is almost finished it. There are two things he loves right now, his Gameboy and his Book of Mormon Reader. I am thrilled that Scriptures are in his hands !!! I have seen a difference in his attitude, he's more respectful and I have seen him pray more often.

Hi everyone! It's been months since I've jotted down some of my thoughts. So I guess HAPPY NEW YEAR is in order, eh?? :)
Let's see.... Lots has happened since November, really. My mom and dad went on vacation for a while and I got to stay with two really nice people up at Grandma and Grandpa's with Snoopy and Lucky while all of them were gone. We missed our people, but Erica and Jacob were certainly fun stand-in's!!
The biggest news, in my opinion, has been the arrival of Roxie. She's my new little sister. At first, I have to say I didn't really know what to make of her. She was really tiny and wouldn't leave me alone for more than 2 seconds. But she's been here a little over a month now and she's gotten a little bigger. I've been having a blast playing with her, and since she's still sleeping in her crate, I still get Mom and Dad all to myself in the big bed! YAY! We go on walks together, play in the backyard (and much to Mom's dismay, also in the living room), lay on the couch together and nap.... All kinds of fun stuff. I really like having her around. She still follows me around EVERYWHERE, but I think it's just cause I'm her big brother and she loves me. I'll have to keep setting a good example like I've been doing. Mom and Dad tell me I'm such a good boy... I wouldn't want to ruin that excellent reputation ;)
It's been soooooo cold outside here in Michigan. Ugh!! I don't really even like to go out too much. Luckily, it's nice and warm in our house. I'm a pretty content guy to just hang out inside and play with my toys. Low maintenance -- that's me!
Anyway, Mom just called to Roxie and told her it was time to go potty, so that's my cue to head out and show her how it's done. I hope everyone is doing really well, and is happy and content as can be! Take care and until I bark at ya next time..... Peace :)
Love and licks,
Wow! It's been a long time since my last entry. Not a whole lot has been happening, but I just figured I'd update my following :)
My mom and dad were curious about what exactly I may be, so they had something called a "DNA test" done on me. It wasn't too bad at all. Just a little blood draw (but Mommy works at a Vet Hospital, so one of her co-workers took really good care of me the whole time), then my "DNA" was off to a lab somewhere so they could figure out what I am. I don't know much about it, but it sounds like Mommy and Daddy are a little skeptical on how effective that little test was. As you can tell by my picture, I'm a pretty big guy, but not solid like my little brother was. (Mommy says I'm "pretty", which I have to say I'm not fond of... but whatever! :oP) Anyway, my results came back and it said I'm part Pit, part Chow, part Rott and part BICHON. Yes, that's right. Bichon Frise. Now I'm just a spittin image, dontcha think?!?! Me thinks we got duped....
On to more fun topics: I'm going to be going on vacation soon! Actually, Mom and Dad are REALLY going on vacation, but when they go away, I'm going to stay with my Aunts Lucky and Snoopy at Grandma and Grandpa's house. It should be a really nice time, 'cause I love it at their place. Lots of chipmunks and squirrels, and sometimes I even get the girls to run around the yard with me. :) I'll be really excited to have my mommy and daddy home, but I know we'll all have a good time while the humans are off cruising the Carribean :)
Anyway, I guess that's about it from me for now. I hope everyone is having a great Fall. Around my neck of the woods, the weather is starting to cool off, but I LOVE it!! Lots of sunny days so far, and it makes for wonderful walks in the morning!
Have a great day, puppy pals! I'll bark back at ya soon......
Love and licks,
~ Sammy
*sigh*.... I think we're going to float away soon :(
It's been raining here for a day and a half now and it doesn't look much like there's an end in sight! I miss going for walks, but whenever Mom tries to put my parka on me, I just kind of stand there and look at her like I'm completely traumatized, so it's just easier to stay dry and warm inside. But it sure is boring in here!! Mom's tried to engage me in a game of fetch, but that doesn't do much for me today. I've been doing a whole lot of napping since yesterday, so BOY-OH-BOY how excited I'll be to get back out there walking again!! Luckily Mom isn't working tomorrow or Wednesday, so just in case it stops raining, she'll be around to get me out there ASAP! :)
Not much else to report for now.... I hope it's nice and dry where ever you are, my fine puppy pals!! I'll post a little more later on! Keeping my paws crossed for sunshine soon......

Antique Tobacco Tins
Offset lithography was developed in the 1870s and patented in 1875 to create an efficient way to print on tin. Until then, transferring ink from hard stone to hard tin had been largely unsuccessful. This new technique allowed the ink on the litho stone to be passed to a cardboard cylinder (later, rubber would be used) and then offset onto the tin.
The ability to print on tin was particularly important to tobacco companies since tin containers allowed their products to be sealed from the air, which dried out tobacco, and protected from damage (a tin in the pocket was a smarter way to store rolled cigarettes than a soft paper wrapper or box).
Tobacco tins were manufactured in only a small number of shapes and styles. Cylinders and boxes were used for tobacco sold in bulk, while smaller flat or concave tins were designed to be carried in a pocket. A third form was the lunchbox tin, so named for its wire handle and frequent reuse by smokers and their children alike to carry their lunch to work or school.
Because the shapes of tobacco tins were relatively standard, the lithographed artwork on the outsides of the tins was just about the only way to differentiate products on a tobacconist's shelves. Imagery ranged from birds to butterflies to flowers, with some brands targeted to wealthy men (the tips of some cigarettes produced for this upscale demographic were tipped in real gold) and others to women (Muratti's was just one of many companies that packaged cigarettes for "Young Ladies").
The most popular images, though, focused on sailors and the Navy. Probably the best known tobacco-tin brand was Player's, whose Navy Cut cigarettes featured a portrait of a sailor framed by a life preserver. Ogden's made Royal Navy Cigarettes, as did Gold Leaf, Crown, Harvey & Davy, and Hignett, whose Pilot Flake tins depicted a slickered sea captain gripping the wheel of a ship listing hard to starboard.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/3/2014 (1196 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Quinton Hunter is in the process of deciding whether he wants to play football or basketball at the post-secondary level, but according to the Top Prospects Canada Recruiting Blog, he may want to consider the gridiron.
The 5-foot-11, 170-pound Neelin Spartans standout has been rated the third-best high school football prospect in Manitoba and the ninth-best defensive back in the country. Hunter wasn't expecting the recognition, but is proud of it.
"I was pretty surprised," Hunter said. "There's a lot of pretty good players in Manitoba. I was happy. That's such a big thing to accomplish."
Hunter had a solid senior season with the Spartans football team. One year after helping Neelin reach the Winnipeg High School Football League's Andy Currie (A) Division final, the 17-year-old played both ways for the Spartans in the Kas Vidruk (AA) Division in 2013 as they posted a 4-4 record in the regular season. Their season came to an end in the quarter-finals when they fell 20-0 to the eventual division champion St. Paul's Crusaders.
On defence, Hunter set a record for most interceptions in a season with nine and added 25.5 tackles and a sack while playing defensive back. On the offensive side of the ball, he rushed for 193 yards on 19 carries and caught 12 passes for 169 yards.
Hunter felt it was a great final season of high school football, and takes pride in the record and the fitness level required to play both ways, which a lot of his teammates did during the season.
"I think it was the people around me (that led to the interceptions)," he said. "I wouldn't be able to do it if the corners on my team weren't as good, if my D-line wasn't pressuring the quarterback to sometimes throw that bad pass for me to get … We all knew what we had to do and with a lot of us being in our senior year, we had to put our bodies on the line and do what we could to win."
While he had a solid football season, Hunter has put that to the back of his mind. He's currently focused on helping the Spartans varsity boys' basketball team get as far as it can in the provincial AAA high school championships, which run Thursday to Saturday in Swan River. He also plans to be on Neelin's track and field, badminton and baseball teams this spring, even though he doesn't have a lot of experience on the diamond.
An accomplished multi-sport athlete, Hunter is also a big supporter of the school's other teams, something that every Neelin athlete tries to do.
"It's one great thing," he said. "We're one big happy family. If you go to Neelin, you're going to be taken into the family no matter who you are. I know we're really known for sports, but if you've been in Neelin and played sports, you'd be there to support us, and that's how we all get together. We're all just one big happy family."
Although Hunter is enjoying his time at Neelin, he knows his time in high school is coming to an end and he has to make a decision about his future pretty soon. He has looked at playing football and basketball on either side of the border and said he has a few offers, but he's still trying to reach a final decision.
"I've been looking at both. It's a hard decision to make," he said.

According to Christi J. Longlois, who wrote a thesis about the Oakland bottle garden in 2002.... " The original garden, whose flower bed borders were edged with boxwood hedges, was likely designed and planted sometime between the late 1810s to the late 1820s by Emanual and Marie Catherine Prudhomme (Malone 1997: 13). It is belived that after a blight destroyed the boxwood hedges in the 1830s, bottles which had collected in Oakland's wine cellar were used to replace the boxwood edging (Malone 1997: 32). Marie Prudhomme is attributed with the concept of replacing the hedge borders with the inverted bottles.The Prudhomme family maintained this tradition until the present, replacing broken bottles with either new bottles or older matching bottles from the wine cellar, as well as maintianing the design of the flower beds borders by pushing bottles back into the ground as they eroded from the ground after heavey rains (Mayo Prudhomme May 2000, personal communication)."

Your report (US officials may have 'covered up murders at Guantánamo', 19 January) confirms our worst fears for British resident Shaker Aamer. Foreign secretary David Miliband should demand to know what happened to Shaker on 9 June 2006, the same night as the suspicious deaths of three other detainees. Our government should demand the immediate release and return of Shaker to the safety of his family in the UK. Can it really be that he is still in Guantánamo to prevent the world from knowing the truth?

Three thousand more destinations, a unified fares structure, understandable timetables, staff at stations, legroom, fried breakfasts cooked on the train, corridors, bicycles in the guards van, windows you can open … I could go on.

• S Rogers (Letters, 21 January) couldn't be more wrong about the paucity of Co-op Bank branches. As they have an arrangement allowing customers to deposit and withdraw money in every post office in the land, they effectively have many more branches than any other bank. Combined with their excellent phone and online banking, it really is a local bank.

There is a hidden visitor at the end of the theme song. The alien is in the crowd on the left side of the screen. All season 6 theme songs have this visitor actually.
Jared bares a striking resemblance to the manager of the copy shop in "SP: BLU."
Even though it's airing worldwide and never airs on Comedy Central, the episode appears on the Season 6 box set.
Comedy Central felt that Parker and Stone had gone too far with their treatment of Butters. In a rare bit of creative interference, the network told Parker and Stone that they were not allowed to do any episodes where Butters was physically abused by his parents and banned "Jared Has Aides" from being shown on their network ever again.
The worker tells Jared that the boys have a sandwich they'd like him to sign, but the boys bring no sandwich.
The boys walk up to Mr. Garrison without any of them seeming to recognize him.
Cartman now takes over for Kenny in the perversion department — he mentions jacking off twice in this episode, and he's already jacked off a dog back in "Proper Condom Use." But then, he should have been a natural for that since the beginning. His mom's a crack whore, after all.
When Jared and his date are dining, the vase and rose should have turned 180 degrees with every change in camera angle, but instead, they move very little while the background switches 180 degrees.
The boys made $15 for a commercial they never made - they got paid for their effort.
At Kenny McCormick Town Square, when Jared was coming
to South Park, Mr. Garrison failed to recognize Stan, Kyle,
Cartman and Butters.
Stan: Only in America can someone become famous just because they go from being a big fat ass to not being a big fat ass.
Jared Vogle: And so, with all the money I've made from commercials. I have decided to start the Aides For Everyone Foundation!
Man: What?!
Jared Vogle: I'll personally see to it that each and every one of you get aides.
Chef: Stay back children! Jared wants to give you AIDS!
(Butters is fat, and is exercising on a rowing machine.)
Cartman: (Yelling at Butters) You are such a flabby hunk of crap! Look at those jelly rolls! Jelly rolls, I tell ya! You still got seven chins, boy! You'll never be thin! Nobody loves you!
Butters: Uh, hey now. They do too. My mom and dad love me even if I am fat.
Cartman: Butters, I'm just trying to offer some motivational help here.
Butters: Uh, all right then.
Carman: (Yelling again) Row, you fat bitch! Look at them jelly rolls! Nobody loves you! You're not even a person!
Cartman: Aw come on; think of how famous you'll be.
Butters: Hmm… you mean like Jared?
Kyle: Yeah dude, you'll be just like Jared!
Butters: W-well the heck with that, you said Jared was a penis-butt.
Butters: You guys have already gotten me in Dutch for getting fat. And then I got in double Dutch for having liposuction. And now you're asking me to get in triple Dutch? Nuh-uh. I'll never be that Dutch.
Jared Vogle: I got aides about two years ago and I've been losing weight ever since. It's amazing how slim you can get with aides.
Stan: [thinking he has AIDS] I'll bet you can.
Chris: Butters. Are you having liposuction surgery? Tell me the truth!
Butters: Yes, sir.
Linda: This is unbelievable! How many times have we told you not to have self-performed liposuction surgery in our house?
Butters: Four times, mom.
(phone conversation)
Linda: Butters, your father called and said you made him very upset!
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Yeah, well, Dad's being a little pussy, Mom.
Linda: Butters, where did you get that kind of smart mouth?
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Uh, not from you dumb asses, that's for sure.
Linda: Oh! Just wait till I get home, mister!
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Well, I'll be waiting with horse bells on, you old… horse-bangin' skank.
[the town looks for Jared]
Mr. Garrison: There he is, beatin' that dead horse!
(phone conversation)
Chris: Do I hear the television? We told you no television while you're grounded!
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Oh, gee whiz, I'm not, uh, watchin' television, Dad, I'm just layin' around jackin' it.
Chris: Jacking it? Jacking what?
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Well my hot spicy boner, of course, Dad.
Chris: What?! Are you trying to get yourself into more trouble with that kind of language?!
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Ah, loosen up, you bloody vaginal belch.
Chris: OH! YOU ARE GONNA GET IT MISTER! YOU JUST WAIT TILL I GET HOME!
Cartman: (impersonating Butters) Bring it on, queerbate.
Jared Vogle: I'm gonna seek out all the underprivileged and hungry children of the world, and I'm giong to give them aides myself!
Chef: You're going to give children AIDS?
Jared Vogle: Yes, it is my hope that every beautiful child on this earth has aides by next month! Aides for everyone! [pause]
Skeeter: Get him!
Cartman: Dammit Butters! Keep eating or I'll kick your ass 'til you're deader than Kenny!
Stan: Dude that isn't cool, you shouldn't joke about Kenny being dead. Enough time hasn't passed.
Cartman: So how long do we have to wait to joke about it?
Kyle: 22.3 years. That's how long it takes for something tragic to become funny.
Cartman: Oof, that's a long time to wait!
[they discuss how Butters could gain 50 pounds]
Chef: Well, if you want him to get really fat as fast as possible, one of you will have to marry him.
Stan: Marry him?
Chef: It definitely worked for every woman I ever met.
Cartman: Oh my god. You guys, I think I'm having a genius moment. Yes…yes…it's coming to me now.
Kyle: Thats...that's diarrhea.
Butters: Hi, Mom and Dad!
Chris: Don't you "Hi, Mom and Dad!" us, you little punk! (punches him)
Butters: Ow. Dad?
Linda: You don't even know the trouble you're in, mister! (punches him)
Butters: Ah! What did I do? What did I do?
Chris: You think you're tough now? Answer me! (the beating continues; Butters starts crying)
Cartman: (outside; listening) Aw, man, if I was older, I would totally start jacking off right now.
On the DVD commentary for this episode, Trey Parker & Matt Stone said they got a letter from Subway about this episode. They claimed the letter said "...Unfortunately, Subway can't control the content on all TV shows..."
This episode has rarely appeared on Comedy Central. According to one report, the channel forbade ever showing it after its initial week, because of the scene at the end where Butters was heard being beaten by his parents. CC is also believed to have forbidden any other episodes with Butters being physically abused by his family. Despite the CC ban, this episode has been shown in syndication and worldwide. It recently aired on Comedy Central on Wednesday, June 17, 2009, on the 12:30 A.M. slot.
Though Sky banned it on first showing in the UK, when the series debuted on terrestrial television (Channel 4) they showed this episode at the start.
First appearance of City Wok guy.
This episode was banned by Sky in the UK and instead of opening the series with it, Sky went forward to "Asspen".
This episode debuted the new opening credit sequence.
A Christmas Story
When Butter's dad says "Don't you look at me like that young man, you're gonna get it!" It is the exact delivery and tone that Ralphie's dad uses when he punishes his son in A Christmas Story.
Cartman: Then eat your puke.
Butters: No!
Cartman: Oh, come on, Japanese girls do it!
Reference to a video that went around the Internet several times (I remember seeing it in 2000) that showed a Japanese girl putting her finger down her throat, throwing up into a bowl, and then eating it. It's one of the most disgusting bits of "underground video" that you'll ever see.
The part of the episode where Jared gets fired and is walking along the street, and even the song used in the background ("Streets of Philadelphia" by Bruce Springsteen) parodies the 1993 film Philadelphia starring Tom Hanks as a lawyer who gets fired from his firm because he has AIDS.

In a world fraught with an increasing number of bitter debates over what is theoretically possible, the best antidote to prejudice may still be the enacted contradiction. That, at least, is one of the lessons to be learned from the Little League career of pitcher Mo'ne Davis who pitches at 70 mph and just threw history's first shut out for Philadelphia's Taney Dragons. She shatters sexist assumptions about what it means to "throw like a girl" and she does it all with composure that most adults find it hard to muster. Her sense of presence on the mound and her control over a baseball prompted The Wall Street Journal's Jason Gay to describe Davis' approach as "the coolest thing I'd ever seen—and I saw "The Empire Strikes Back" at a drive-in." I'm not much on the gospel of "positive thinking" and I am keenly aware that the power to contribute and create can be frustrated by people who seek to destroy, rather than celebrate the contributions that others make. But there is a time and place to set aside the theory of what might be accomplished – or allowed – by enacting a lived contradiction to the naysaying of those who argue, "it can't be done." That effort requires time, discipline, focus, and dedication. But it also creates lasting exemplars that can't be dismissed. Thanks to Mo'ne Davis of reminding us of that fact — not in words, but in action.

Just like its predecessor, the DTR-T1010 is a smooth operator, calling up menus, digital text and surfing the EPG without any frustrating delays. This is impressive given that it has to deal with the potentially complex mixture of online and broadcast content.
Freeview pictures are also impressive. Standard definition channels have their fair share of noise, which results in some slightly hazy detail reproduction – particularly on low-rent channels – but on the whole they're hugely enjoyable.
With hi-def channels however it really shines, delivering that extra detail with impressive sharpness. Edges are clean, colours are natural and it holds steady when the action gets frenetic. The DTR-T1010 captures these pictures on the hard-disk in pristine condition, which means recordings look every bit as good as the live broadcast.
Most of the online TV shows we streamed looked great, particularly BBC iPlayer with its bold colours and decent detail. 4OD didn't look quite as good but remains perfectly watchable. They all suffer from the endemic mosquito noise and hazy shimmering of web video, but it never spoiled our enjoyment.
Although it's disappointing that Humax didn't take the opportunity to include Wi-Fi in this revamped YouView box (or change the spec in any way), the DTR-T1010 remains a very likeable PVR thanks to its ease of use and convenience. It seamlessly blends online and broadcast TV within the superb EPG, bringing an unparalleled level of user-friendliness to its entire operating system – a fact that will go down very well with those who find the whole Smart revolution daunting. As for the looks, the revamp brings an extra touch of silvery elegance to the product, even though there was nothing wrong with the DTR-T1000's sleek design. And in terms of spec, the 500GB hard-disk should be ample for most people and the ability to record two channels while watching a third is an absolute godsend – all of which explains why we're willing to give the DTR-T1010 'Recommended' status.
"Most of the online TV shows we streamed looked great"
I take it you didn't try the itv player then. It's god awful, much worse than any of the others.
So, what is the point of the revamp then? Is it really just a different box?
One frustration with the original box that I have been using is that you cannot re-arrange the channel order; you are stuck with the defaults. This makes it much longer to navigate through your desired channels.
Without the wi-fi this box seems pretty pointless,the upgrade just seems to be a facelift of the original you veiw box ,it's not as though it's cheap either at 300 quid for a facelift
You don't need (or in fact want) WiFi for this - just buy a pair of power ethernet plug adaptors & get your internet connection via your power circuit - works a treat!
Hi Danny Philips, I've been looking up the Humax range and read some of your reviews but you continue to miss some important points - Archiving:
How do we archive recordings from the internal HD?
What is the USB port for? Is that for connecting an external hard drive to which we can transfer recordings?
Is there a way of increasing the hard drive capacity either internally or externally (no esata connection)?
Hauppauge have a range of HD PVR units with HDMI pass through, but HDMI is HDCP but the Hauppauge units do have HD capture via component connections, component is 720i Hi-Def, so we could capture to BD or PC Hi-Def via component, but all the Humax units omit component output, didn't you Danny Philips think that was a glaring omission?
I have Samsung Smart TV and use a plug in Ethernet adaptor, so can I just plug the Humax into my TV for the system to work ?
On my Freeview tv i have the homepage of Vintage tv but says my Tv is not compatable to receive this service ,what box do i need please

Depressed? Your cardiologist might not ask
By Julie Steenhuysen
CHICAGO (Reuters) - While depression often follows a heart attack, a recent call for heart specialists to do routine depression screening may have been premature, a team of researchers said on Monday.
Their detailed analysis of more than 17 studies suggests the American Heart Association's recommendation for early and repeated screenings for depression in heart attack survivors would be burdensome and may not provide enough benefit to patients to justify the trouble.
They said there is little proof that depressed heart patients live longer or fare better over the long term if they are screened for depression and treated with drugs and talk therapy.
"It's a very appealing idea that non-mental health professionals can administer a quick, easy-to-use depression screening test and that would somehow benefit patients," said Brett Thombs of McGill University in Montreal, whose study appears in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
"Unfortunately, the reality is that it would be an extremely difficult undertaking that wouldn't produce practical benefits for patients," Thombs, a psychology professor, said in a statement.
Studies have shown that depression is about three times more common in patients after a heart attack and depressed patients are at higher risk for a second heart attack.
Thombs and colleagues' review of medical studies found that screening alone or screening and referral does not help many patients and that depression treatments such as therapy or drugs result in only modest symptom relief. They found no evidence that depression treatment can prevent a second heart attack.
Dr. Sharonne Hayes, director of the Mayo Clinic's Women's Heart Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, said in a telephone interview the study reflects the misgivings of cardiologists who feel they are not qualified to screen patients for depression. Continued...

Bath & Body Works - Mentha Lip Balm Stick (no shine formula)
5 Recommendations
Coutorture's recommendation
"Many men suffer from a seldom talked about psychological condition known to experts as âchapstick envy.â Theyâre forced to watch as their respective wives, girlfriends and sisters slather on layer after layer of soothing goop, only to lick their dry, chapped lips and pray for some relief. Many will make the mistake of trying to use their ladyâs, and that bit of sparkle or shine that looks so subtle on her, does not quite work on the male mouth."
My Collections:
loveless0214's recommendation
This is the best lip balm - hands down! I keep it in my purse, by my bed, and in the car. It is waxy so you can really feel the coverage. It has a minty smell and taste which freshen your breath. Love it, love it, love it.
I have used this for the last year and I wont use anything other than this stuff!!!!! Get rid of all other lip balms and get this. For any guy who suffers from dry lips you need to have a tube of this with you at all times. I am a Sports Director so I am outside all day and my lips get burnt and chapped. This stuff has UVA and UVB protection, plus it moisturizes and protects the lips. If you dont have any by now, GO GET SOME!!!!!!
- coakley67
chinchilla818's recommendation
This stuff is amazing. It's not petroleum based, so it doesn't get the gross greasy feeling, but your lips feel so smooth and soft. It also has that tingly feeling that lets you know it works! It even has an amazing mint smell for breath-freshening benefits!
CandiceH28's recommendation
does your guy have chapped lips but not like to carry around chapstick because he's afraid it makes him look feminine? here's the answer. it tastes like mint, has no shine, gets the job done, and look a teensy bit masculine.
My Collections:
jay812's recommendation
I do not recommend this product. Its like putting a bit of elmers glue on your lips, leaves them WHITE and goopy, whats the point of that? The reason I bought this in the first place was because it was supposed to be no sheen, which is better for a man but who wants white lips? Not too mention its 8.50. Will never buy this again.

From the days of the PS one, this downloadable game allows you to play the classic original on compatible PlayStation game systems.
Ages ago, evil beings created powerful creatures called Espers and unleashed them against each other. The resulting battles turned their world into smoldering rubble. Legend has it that the Espers destroyed themselves and most of humanity. Centuries have passed, and a rational world now stands. Espers and magic exist only in myths. Suddenly, after an ancient frozen Esper is unearthed, there are reports of attacks on civilians. Imperial Commandos launch raids using magic-powered MagiTek weapons. Magic is obviously alive, and the world is in danger again. Who or what is behind the rediscovery and redeployment of this legendary power? What chaotic plans will wreak havoc on this orderly world?
The sixth installment in the iconic Final Fantasy series, Final Fantasy VI introduced the ability to play all the main characters as the game's protagonist. With plenty of abilities available and the magicite system for controlling spells/summoning, players can develop their characters any way they want.

Bonzo's classic cymbal configuration with a bag and Zep DVD.
This cymbal pack replicates John Bonham's cymbal setup with five Paiste 2002 cymbals, plus a Paiste cymbal bag and Jeff Ocheltree DVD. Made with CuSn8 bronze for a bright, warm, and energetic tone, these cymbals are great for live and studio gigs requiring high energy and the utmost in precision and musicality. The pack consists of a general purpose 24" ride cymbal, the classic 15" Sound Edge hi-hats with a rippled bottom for very clear projection, a versatile 18" crash, a lively 18" medium crash, a 24" cymbal bag, and a Trust Your Ears: The Drum Tech Explorations of Jeff Ocheltree DVD.
The 24" Paiste 2002 Ride is a versatile ride with a penetrating ping and a warm, lively overall sound. This works well for light to medium volume situations. It has a strong bell and wide frequency range. This is the cymbal to nail the classic rock ride sound heard on records since the '60s.
The 15" Paiste 2002 Sound Edge Hi-Hat pair is a classic. The unique rippled bottom prevents air lock, giving an overall sharp "chick" and splashy open sound with very clear cutting projection.
The 18" Paiste 2002 Crash is effective for multiple music applications. Bright and explosive with a warm shimmer that carries well. Very dynamic and full-bodied, with immediate response. Washy stick sound with lively intensity and medium sustain. A good all-purpose crash.
The responsive 18" Paiste 2002 Medium Crash is a bit heavier than the Paiste 2002 Crash. The Medium Crash is very balanced, full, and rich sounding. It projects a nice ride sound in larger venues. Very versatile and works well with louder playing.
The durable Paiste cymbal bag features backpack-style shoulder straps as well as a single shoulder strap for comfortable carrying however it works for you. Vinyl internal dividers separate cymbals to minimize metal-to-metal contact. The rounded front pouch holds cymbals up to 16" or other percussion accessories. Backpack case fits cymbals up to 24".
Jeff Ocheltree transitioned from replaceable roadie to invaluable drum tech by being the first person to take complete care of all aspects of the drums, in the glory days of such legends as Bonham and Cobham. In Trust Your Ears: The Drum Tech Explorations of Jeff Ocheltree DVD, Jeff's first instructional DVD, he discusses his experiences and teaches techniques valuable to drum techs and all drummers - with hands-on examples using 9 different kits and 9 drummers. Jeff also discusses the unique bronze drums he makes from recycled cymbals. As a special bonus, John Bonham's kit used in Zeppelin recordings appears on-screen for the first time ever, and Bonzo's settings, tunings, and mic placements are revealed! 60 minutes.

Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
I own and have played most every cymbal there is out there. I have zildjans that date back to the 60's. In my humble opinion there are no finer cymbals on earth than the 2002's. I first got my paiste 2002's back in 1983. I still have and use all of them. 14'' sound edge, 16 and 18 medium crashes, 20'' crash ride (which is thunderous)
and a 22'' ride. I also have an 18'' china which sounds great (though I favor my 20'' wuhan). I just wanted to point out that this is a great deal for cymbals that you will be playing (and enjoying) for a long time to come.
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
Every Cymbal company has their High end and low end metal works. Fact is the Paiste 2002 series along with many other Paiste line Cymbals were and still are certainly good enough for guys like Frank Beard,Ian Paice,Alex Van Halen and Bonham. Seriously,if someone is breaking them all within a gig perhaps we better review how were striking them....or something "?" Once I saw Tommy Aldridge at a clinic strike a Zildjian with his Fist and it did tear out the center at the Bell of that Cymbal.Tommy didn't realize it until later. These things can happen with any metal. I have used Paiste for 7 years and this Bonham pack is AAA+! The 24" 2002 ride is superb! Just listen to Alex Halen on #1st album. I have Paiste Signature series,Rude and Inovation and my favorites are the 2002's!! Sometimes the tools being used are no better than the person using them.
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
I didn't buy the John Bonham Pack. Because there were Cymbals in it I didn't need. So I did buy the 24" Ride and Certain 2002 Crashes seperate. I already have "Sound Edge Signature Hihats in 13,14 and 15" sizes. I have a Bonham Amber Vistalite and I also have a Yamaha Maple Custom Absoulute with two 24" kicks. So.. I sort of use what ever I will need for a certain situation. My Point is this.. I could have gone with any Cymbals I wanted. At the Music store I would take a drum stick and hit a few Cymbals and always the Paistes I liked according to my personal ear. Then you look at the price tag and you see why it attracted me the way it did. I think Paiste makes the very best Cymbals in the world. I spend more on Cymbals than I do on Drums. I have quite an arrangement. "All Paiste" And that Amber Vistalite kit,... I use it for a Big band Jazz kit as well...I have a 22" Paiste 2002 Power Ride and a 2002 24" Ride. I have no complaints about either one. Their really no better than the guy who is hitting it.
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
Paiste 2002's are some of the greatest sounding cymbals that I have ever heard in my opinion. These are not the cymbals that Bonham used. He used a 15 inch sound edge hi hat a 18 and a 20 inch crash, and a 24 inch ride all Paiste 2002's (this is of course after 1972 when he switched from Paiste giant beats , all same sizes, to these). He would also use a gold tone cowbell made by Paiste and a 38 inch symphonic gong.
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
I own a 2002 22" black label ride, 14" black label hats, two crashes, and a splash. These cymbals are the bomb, and I've always loved them. They are DEFINITELY the ones Bonham used. He used these and the same sizes in Giant Beats. I think Paiste would know.

1st time Paiste buyer
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
I have been playing on my 2002's since the late 80's. I've played them HARD! I have yet to crack one! Now I have a lot of other cymbals as well (Sabian, Wuhan, Zildjian) and prefer my Zildjian hats to my sound edges, but these have withstood the test of time and I'm about to purchase another set for my backup kit and ditch the rest. Even though they are pricey they have stood up well for me!
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
I am reviewing these cymbals as cymbals, not a Bonham replica setup. Do not listen to all those Sabian and Zildjian fans whining about Paiste. I don't know how their reviews were approved. These cymbals sounds great, and I mean really great. A bit pricy but they are top end.
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
These might be the best cymbals in the market, but you shouldn't but them only because bonham used them. But if there was a Giant Beat Pack "That Bonham Used", I would definitly buy it. Period
Comments about Paiste 2002 Bonham Cymbal Pack:
I have a 2002 22 ride and the 14 SE hats and I love them. These cymblas sound good for Rock, Funk, Country, you name it. Top of the line but well worth the price.
