Franklin, Ariana. Mistress of the Art of Death.
The murders of three Christian children are being blamed on the innocent Jews of 12th century Cambridge, England in the first installment of this historical mystery series. In order to clear their name, King Henry calls for an expert, a master of the art of death, to determine who is really to blame. Instead, he gets a mistress, Adelia Aguilar, a trained physician from Salerno, Italy. She is talented, stubborn and on a dangerous mission to discover the real killer, who is still roaming Cambridge, perhaps under her very nose.
Adelia is definitely out of her element among the strict social confines of her surroundings, but she still manages to gather clues based on the forensic evidence she collects from the corpses of the dead children and with the help of her travel companion, Simon, and the young eel catcher, Ulf. The book is a medieval spin on a forensic thriller and readers will enjoy the rising tension as Adelia hones in on the killer.

Landscape Initiatives
/ 2011 Bayou Boeuf MRBI Project
Loading Tree...
The Bayou Boeuf - Mississippi River Basin Initiative (MRBI) Project is a voluntary program that provides financial and technical assistance to agricultural producers for addressing water quality concerns in the Bayou Boeuf watershed. The project area encompasses 249-square miles.
The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in partnership with the Arkansas Association of Conservation Districts and Louisiana Association of Conservation Districts has received funding for the initiative. This funding is available for landowners in portions of Ashley and Chicot counties in Arkansas and Morehouse and West Carroll parishes in Louisiana.
Collaborating partners are the Southeast Arkansas Resource Conservation and Development Council, University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff Center for Aquaculture and Fisheries, Northeast Delta Resource Conservation and Development Council, Ashley County Conservation District, Chicot County Conservation District, Morehouse Parish Conservation District, West Carroll Parish Conservation District and Louisiana State University Master Farmer Program.
The goals of the project are to improve nutrient management in the watershed, especially the application and utilization of nitrogen and phosphorus, reduce nutrient loads entering the watershed, maintain agricultural productivity, enhance wetlands, improve fish and wildlife habitat benefits, and improve water quality and biological health in streams.
Funding will be available to eligible landowners through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), Wildlife Habitat Incentive Program (WHIP) and Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP). NRCS will provide cost-share for a variety of conservation practices for the purpose of reducing the amount of nutrient runoff and soil erosion associated with agricultural production. Land and producer eligibility, adjusted gross income, and all other program criteria for participation must be met to participate in this initiative. Agricultural lands are eligible for enrollment in the initiative.
NRCS and associated conservation partners will deliver this program collaboratively. Applications may be obtained and filed with the Natural Resources Conservation Service at:

Guest | September 3, 2013
By Guest • Tuesday, September 3, 2013 - 18:58
This is a guest post by David Suzuki.
I recently wrote about geoengineering as a strategy to deal with climate change and carbon dioxide emissions. That drew comments from people who confuse this scientific process with the unscientific theory of "chemtrails". Some also claimed the column supported geoengineering, which it didn't.
The reaction got me wondering why some people believe in phenomena rejected by science, like chemtrails, but deny real problems demonstrated by massive amounts of scientific evidence, like climate change.
Chemtrails believers claim governments around the world are in cahoots with secret organizations to seed the atmosphere with chemicals and materials – aluminum salts, barium crystals, biological agents, polymer fibres, etc. – for a range of nefarious purposes. These include controlling weather for military purposes, poisoning people for population or mind control and supporting secret weapons programs based on the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, or HAARP.
Scientists have tested and used cloud and atmospheric seeding for weather modification and considered them as ways to slow global warming. With so many unknowns and possible unintended consequences, these practices have the potential to cause harm. But the chemtrails conspiracy theory is much broader, positing that military and commercial airlines are involved in constant massive daily spraying that is harming the physical and mental health of citizens worldwide.
I don't have space to get into the absurdities of belief in a plot that would require worldwide collusion between governments, scientists and airline company executives and pilots to amass and spray unimaginable amounts of chemicals from altitudes of 10,000 metres or more. I'm a scientist, so I look at credible science – and there is none for the existence of chemtrails. They're condensation trails, formed when hot, humid air from jet exhaust mixes with colder low-vapour-pressure air. This, of course, comes with its own environmental problems.
But what interests me is the connection between climate change denial and belief in chemtrails. Why do so many people accept a theory for which there is no scientific evidence while rejecting a serious and potentially catastrophic phenomenon that can be easily observed and for which overwhelming evidence has been building for decades?
To begin, climate change denial and chemtrails theories are often conspiracy-based. A study by researchers at the University of Western Australia found "endorsement of a cluster of conspiracy theories … predicts rejection of climate science as well as the rejection of other scientific findings."
Many deniers see climate change as a massive plot or hoax perpetrated by the world's scientists and scientific institutions, governments, the UN, environmentalists and sinister forces to create a socialist world government or something.
Not all go to such extremes. Some accept climate change is occurring but deny humans are responsible. Still, it doesn't seem rational to deny something so undeniable! In a Bloomberg article, author and Harvard Law School professor Cass R. Sunstein points to three psychological barriers to accepting climate change that may also help explain why it's easier for people to believe in chemtrails: People look to readily available examples when assessing danger, focus "on risks or hazards that have an identifiable perpetrator", and pay more attention to immediate threats than long-term ones.
Researchers Ezra Markowitz and Azim Shariff of the University of Oregon Psychology and Environmental Studies departments add a few more, including that human-caused climate change "provokes self-defensive biases" and its politicization "fosters ideological polarization."
People who subscribe to unbelievable conspiracy theories may feel helpless, so they see themselves as victims of powerful forces – or as heroes standing up to those forces. Whether it's to deny real problems or promulgate imaginary ones, it helps reinforce a worldview that is distrustful of governments, media, scientists and shadowy cabals variously referred to as banksters, global elites, the Illuminati or the New World Order.
The problem is that science denial is, in the case of chemtrails, a wacky distraction and, in the case of climate change denial, a barrier to addressing an urgent, critical problem. Science is rarely 100 per cent certain, but it's the best tool we have for coming to terms with our actions and their consequences, and for finding solutions to problems. The science is clear: human-caused climate change is the most pressing threat to humanity, and we must work to resolve it. We don't have time for debunked conspiracy theories.

Since chemstrails have never
Since chemstrails have never been scientifically studied, they can't be said to be a wacky conspiracy theory. And as we know, conspiracies don't need massive collusion involving widespread instituitional participation, they just need compartmentalization of unaware workers.
Chemtrails may indeed turn out to be nothing, but when you see aircraft flying back and forth over a wide area in parallel or criss-crossing lines leaving trails that do not dissipate in a normal amount of time, then instead of ignoring this anomaly, one should at least remain curious about it. That would be more scientific than closed-minded dismissal I would think.
The idea that there is some conspiracy starts with the belief that;
A) big institutions are smart enough to do it, and,
B) they can keep a secret.
… and you haven't even cracked the nut of motivation.
Peter, we have Chemtrails in Calgary. The insurance companies keep a bevy of planes on call to seed clouds and prevent hail storms.
Peter Moss replied on Permalink
The answer to both 1 and 2 is
The answer to both 1 and 2 is yes.
The cloud seeding program in Calgary doesn't operate on clear days, whereas chemtrails do often appear on clear days. I don't notice them as much in Calgary as I did when I lived on Vancouver Island.

Some chemtrails believers
Some chemtrails believers believe that climate change is a hoax, part of the conspiracy. Others, such as Dane Wigington, selectively quote the most alarmist fringe on ice melt and artic methane releases to show that the government must be doing geoengineering in a failed attempt to combat a climate emergency.http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org/arctic-ice-imploding-methane-releasing/

Why people believe in chemtrails? simple
Most people are cheerfully blind to the fact that trees are dying prematurely all over the world at a staggering rate. Sometimes the latest environmental disaster du jour is blamed - the Gulf Oil Spill was popular, so is Fukushima, even though the trend of forest decline preceded those events. By far most people attribute the death of trees to insects, disease, and fungus…but those are opportunistic biotic attacks on trees that are already weakened from absorbing air pollution. Tropospheric ozone is invisible but the background level is inexorably rising as emissions of precursors increase. More chemtrailers might be interested in this enormous threat to the biosphere - and so might more climate scientists, except that stopping the ominous pattern would require massive sacrifice and nobody wants to admit that.

"Since chemstrails have never been scientifically studied, they can't be said to be a wacky conspiracy theory."
Persistent contrails have been studied, and found to be normal phenomena which happen when air temp is -40 or colder and relative humidity is at or above saturation. Aluminum in water has been studied and found to be in proportion to its presence in the earth's crust. You can't study "chemtrails" without any evidence that they exist.
Peter Moss replied on Permalink
Nope. That's not what people
Nope. That's not what people are seeing. You postulate they don't exist without understanding what people mean when they say 'chemtrail'. Try do some reading on the topic. Failing that…look up.
When I looked up chemtrail it only brought up a lot of kooky web pages. The most credible was this;
Peter Moss replied on Permalink
Those "kooky web pages"
Those "kooky web pages" contain claims which can be discussed and analyzed. But I guess it's just easier to dismiss a phenomenon out of hand than engage in a little scientific curiosity.
And a short Wikipedia (that bastion of all things true and accurate) article that uses the phrase "conspiracy theory" no less than 18 times constitutes a "credible" source in your mind?
I tend to be pretty selective about the kinds of sites I'm willing to trust as a source. The first requirement is references to credible sources and\or scientific journals. The second requirement is the ability for me to verify the claims being made. Third, and often more telling, is language being used. Fourth I need to understand the source, how it works, and what its methods are.
While debunking a lot of entertaining claims about climate science being false, I concluded that two websites had also come to the same conclusions I had; Desmogblog, and skepticalscience. I now trust these two sites, and I'm aware that there is some political rhetoric that comes from them.
Instead of pointing out that you think I'm wrong why don't you point out a credible source? I have better things to do with my time, than guess what your concerns are.
Skimming sites is entertaining, but hardly productive. UFOs filmed with this one! Wow… (My guess is bugs near the camera.)
I tend to dump such information in the 'Kooky Web Pages' department.
I've already said that I understand that we put chemicals in the atmostphere. I see no real concerns.

without understanding what people mean when they say 'chemtrail'.
Actually, that is exactly how most advocates define chemtrail–an exhaust trail that does not quickly dissipate–although there are rare variants such as trails that appear to come from the wingtips or fuselage.
Peter Moss replied on Permalink
Not even close
That's not what people mean by chemtrail and you know it. You just made that up. Persistance of a contrail is one characteristic of chemtrails which people report, not its defining quality.

Respectfully - Why, David, do you think Geoengineering is Bunk?
I'm a long-in-the-tooth, respectful student of yours who has followed your work from my childhood. You're one of our "gurus" in Canada.
I honestly want to know why you've dismissed the spraying that's occurring in our skies - for me as a relatively recent occurrence in Canada and the US (2007-2009 +on) - and why you find it threatening to the cause of combating fossil fuels and global warming?
Strip away the extreme aspects and to others who have commented - I agree - the websites addressing Geoengineering and Chemtrails don't do themselves any service with their ranting and dramatic presentations - the situation is still rather obvious.
For over 40 years, I've lived in cities with healthy airports, lots of plane traffic, and I've never experienced day-in-day out coverage of the sky like we experience today – by whatever residue is being dropped. We had clean air - pure / simple. Before we even question what they may be spraying - just the ability to turn sunny days to cloud and storms day after day has to make any eco-friendly human being question - what IS this airplane pollution?!? It's new. It may be decades new as others report - but as a generic everyday occurrence in every city in North America, Europe, worldwide now - it's NEW.
David - you're the scientist - what is it?
Then, I've studied the results. Aluminum, Barium, Lithium, Strontium. All that stuff David that you told us we had to worry about in our water. All that stuff that was killing our Sockeye salmon in the 1970s and 80s from polluting factories. The sulfuric acid, the potassium chloride that you started us fighting against - Acid Rain - and then we joined and marched, campaigned and supported you.
David the chemical soil samples don't lie. The land is being poisoned. The tree canopy is being destroyed. Where is that coming from?
Can we start a discussion and get down to the facts - together?

Thank you so much for commenting, "SteveFunk?"
Thank you so much for commenting, "SteveFunk".
I'm assuming you're not speaking for David Suzuki or his spokesman? I just wanted to check before I do my follow-ups with him directly at his website and company / organization in Canada.
What's interesting is you only addressed the websites I referenced at the end trying to give readers some alternative sites that were not quite as florid as the initial ones I found when first trying to research the phenomenon… I appreciate the feedback and am glad you added it. I'll carry that forward. Thank you!
What you didn't address was the point of the letter:
1. What has changed with aircraft that they are now emitting this horrendous effluent that immediately covers the skies over our major cities – or even in the countryside - creating abnormal cloud cover within the space of 1 shiny bright perfectly blue sky day?
- I understand you doubt the credibility of the sites I listed, but can you please confirm you don't doubt the reality that planes are crisscrossing the sky trailing *something* that persists, covers, and then generates clouds? I want to know because if necessary I can dig out and post my own photos taken day after day. And remind us all to take space and time to look up… now and again.
- What is the scientific explanation for this?
- How do we combat it and get the EPA (in the US) and the other air pollution agencies in other countries to take the necessary measures to stop such horrific air pollution from continuing?
2. What is the cause of the spike in Aluminum and heavy metal concentration in our soil and the destruction of the tree crowns by nearest you can define it "chemical burn"?
- I can think of many possible alternative causes for the soil and water pollution, but would appreciate your insight.
- I can't explain the destruction of only the tree crowns except through acid rain or other precipitants falling on it. Again - what is your understanding of the scientific explanation for this?
3. Why does this conflict with the cause of "Global Warming" or any environmental concerns? Isn't it just one more pollution source we need to raise awareness about and take action on along with all the other Carbon, etc. pollutants that we've been working to improve on for the past 30+ years?
I hear your very concerned critique that Chemtrails or Geoengineering hype is somehow inimical to environmentalism, but I don't see an explanation for WHY?
I know that many advocates concerned about Geoengineering say governments are using Global Warming as an excuse to justify the spraying (even though weather modification is clearly classified as illegal in our laws here in the US and I believe most internationally… despite cloud seeding still being performed and publically reported in many cases) - but you, I think (?), are saying that there's no such thing as Geoengineering or deliberate spraying from airplanes.
Is that correct? Or am I misunderstanding your statements?
And if this is correct, in that case - 1. it should be irrelevant to your advocacy against causes of Global Warming and 2. the readers here (and I :-)) would need to hear:
- Some clear explanation about what the *cover* / effluent out of these planes IS and why it has become so pervasive on an increasingly frequent basis to the point where it's reached a daily scourge of our skies AND
- Clear steps forward we can take to have our environmental protection agencies and pollution watchdogs stop it
Until we can enjoy blue, clear skies again (and breathe clean air - I'm with you 100%, I believe, on all the negative pollutants causing Global Warming) – then clearly it remains a serious issue we all must be concerned about; just as serious as global warming, the melting of the ice caps, and overall environmental destruction of the Earth's ecosystem.
Thank you,

You are much more polite than most chemtrail believers. I will try to elaborate as well as I can. I'm just speaking for myself. I live in a community with a lot of chemtrail believers, and after four years of politely agreeing to disagree, I finally decided to actively debunk this myth.
What has changed with aircraft that they are now emitting this horrific effluent . ..?
Qualitatively, nothing has changed. The visible part of the exhaust is water vapor, which condenses and turns to ice crystals whenever the temperature is -40 or below, and relative humidity (RH) is above 60%. If RH is between 60 and 99%, the contrails are short and dissipate quickly. When RH is at or above saturation, the contrails are persistent, forming artificial cirrus clouds. The contrail "seeds" the adjacent areas of high RH, so the artificial cirrus becomes bigger than the original contrail. These conditions occur app 16% of the time, and usually between elevations of 29,000 and 36,000 feet, which is also the optimum altitude for jet aircraft to cruise. At night, it was occasionally a hazard for bombers in WWII flying at 25,000 feet, as you can see in the 1943 video, Memphis Belle. (It's on YouTube, but I can't make the links work on this blog.)
You can read this explanation in any meteorology book that discusses contrails. One example would be the Peterson Field Guide to the Atmosphere, written in 1981.
The term chemtrails was first coined between 1995 and 1997. Forty three years ago, the Journal of Atmospheric Science published a paper titled, Airborne Observations of Contrail Effects on the Thermal Radiation Limit." It stated:
One aspect of weather pollution in the atmosphere is the generation of contrails. The spreading out of jet contrails into extensive cirrus sheets is a familiar sight. Often, when persistent conditions exist from 25,000 to 40,000 ft, several long contrails increase in number and gradually merge into an almost solid interlaced sheet.
Does that sound like what you see currently? I know some chemmies say that just proves they have been doing it longer, but the idea of geoengineering to reduce solar radiation was first mentioned by a Russian scientist named Budykin in the late 1970's. A true concensus that global warming was a problem needing remediation didn't emerge until about the 1990's and the second IPCC report. When I was a kid in the 1950's I looked up a lot, because I made model airplanes and was interested in what was in the sky. I saw persistent contrails, short contrails and flights with no contrails.
Planes also emit CO2, a greenhouse gas, as well as nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide and soot. In this respect, they are no worse than surface transportation. These gases and aerosols are not visible from the ground.
There is always a gap between the engine and the contrail. This gap occurs because the water vapor takes a few milliseconds to freeze. If the emissions were aluminum or sulfuric acid, there would not be a gap.
Quantitatively, what has changed is that aire traffic has increased by a factor of 10 since 1970. And more people are looking up, because they are told there is a problem. Mick West did a survey, and a significant number of respondents gave answers such as: "When did you first hear about chemtrails?" "2008." "When did you first notice persistent trails in the sky?" "2008."
What can we do about contrails? Take the train. Other than flying less, there is not much. Planes could be directed to fly above or below the contrail zone, but that would be less efficient, requiring more fuel, and producing more CO2 and water vapor. Gaseous water vapor is a simple greenhouse gas. Frozen water droplets in clouds have a mixed effect, definitely being greenhous insulators at night, but also reflecting some sunlight during the day. There is a photo somewhere on the web of an old Boing 707 flying side by side with a new Airbus A340. The newer plane was less polluting, but produced more contrail because a bigger proportion of its emissions was water vapor.
The really heavy contrails, to put the problem into perspective, usually occur as a front is coming in, so there are typically only a few hours before the sky becomes overcast anyway. In California, we seldom see persistent contrails during the summer because of the prevailing high pressure systems and concomitant low humidity. Of course, if there were a geoengineering program, summer would be the most efficient season.
There may be a word limit on comments here. I will write more later.

As a licensed forester, I can usually figure out what is killing or defoliating trees in areas I know, where I have personally looked at the trees. But I wouldn't pretend to be able to diagnose from thousands of miles awa. You need to ask someone with a background in the subject and local knowledge. Otherwise, you would be using a technique called argument from ignorance; i.e. "We don't know what is killing the trees; therefore, it must be chemtrails.
There are many causes of tree mortality and morbidity. They include insects, fungal diseases, suppression by competition, stress from heat, drought or cold, animal damage and chemical pollution. The last has been around for a while. I remeber a paper presented by a fellow student in 1974 on the serious impact of trophospheric ozone and peroxyacetylnitrate, components of photochemical smog, on forests in Southern California. And spikes in mortality usually come in cycles, at 15-30 year intervals. So the bottom line is I don't know what is causing the forest decline in your area (Ontario?) But if it is related to acid rain, not that David Keith pointed out on Colbert's show the other night that our civilization emits 50 million tons/year of sulfuric acid from ordinary pollution. I haven't been able to track down that exact number, but Wikipedia says the world production is 100 million tons/yr.

Spike in Aluminum?
What is the cause of the spike in aluminum and heavy metal concentraition in our soil?
There is not any credible evidence that metals in soil have spiked. Aluminum constitutes 7% of the average soil, according to USGS Technical Paper 1270, Element Concentration in Soils and Other Surficial Materials of the United States, published in 1984. There is less in sandy soils, and a little more in clay soils. Aluminum silicate is the main constituent of clay particles. The lab tests only show that the sample has some form of aluminum, not which molecules. Some chemmies don't realize this, and think that the tests show free metallic aluminum. This is highly unlikely. There is hardly any free metallic aluminum in the earth's crust. Even if there was a geoengineering program using metallic aluminum, the particles would be aluminum oxide at the end of their two years in the atmosphere, because aluminum reacts very strongly with oxygen.
The only evidence I have seen that soil concentration of aluminum is increasing was a report by Francis Mangels, my former co-worker, that he got 1.3% aluminum from a single sample under his house, and 1.6% from a sample outside. That could easily be sample variation. At my place, I submitted two samples from the same bucket to the lab. One had 3.1% aluminum and the other 3.5%. If the difference in Mangels' two samples were from geoengineering, it would take 900 billion tons applied, if you assume that the material was evenly distributed over the surface of the earth, and evenly distributed in the top six inches of soil. The world production of aluminum is about 50 million tons/year. Incidentally, neither aluminum, barium nor strontium are heavy metals as the term is usually defined.
If your concern is aluminum in rain, a paper published in the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences in 1967 found a mean of 800 parts per billion of aluminum in rain, and 460 in snow, in southeast Ontario. A paper published in 1976 in Atmospheric Environment found 350 parts per billion of aluminum in rain samples in Nebraska. A paper published in 1986 in Arctic magazine found 760 parts per billion of aluminum in rain and snow in Frobisher Bay, Alaska. The average of these older samples is about the same as recent web published samples.
The amount of aluminum in rain depends on the amount of dust in the atmosphere. The first rain after a long dry spell will have more, especially if the observer neglects to clean his collector before the storm. The second day of a two day storm will have less. Three samples I have taken in my back yard range from 6.6 to 123 parts per billion. However, I got 3,670 by sloshing a bottle of tap water around in a bucked that I had left outside for six weeks collecting dust. A bottle of tap water sent directly to the lab had none detectable. Dane Wigington and others claiming a huge spike use a cherry picking technique, comparing one very low reading and one very high reading. Wigington also suggests that pond and stream samples include some sediment from the bottom. Usually, water samples are taken at midflow. Lab slips from some of his samples define the medium tested as sludge, a mix of soil and water. Consequently, he gets concentrations of aluminum that would be off the chart for water, but are way too low for soil.
Testing for silicon as well as aluminum is a simple way to determine whether the aluminum is a natural material from the Earth's crust, or something else. Silicon constitutes 28% of the earth's crust, and is the second most abundant element. The silicon is all naturally occurring, since nobody has ever suggested using it for geoengineering or other nefarious purpose. There is 3.4 times as much silicon as aluminum, the third most abundant element. So, if the silicon/aluminum ratio in your samples is approximately 3.4/1, that indicates that the aluminum is also naturally occurring. On the other hand, if you don't get any silicon, or the silicon ratio is very low, that would indicate an anthropogenic source of aluminum. In four samples, I have gotten an average silicon/aluminum ratio of 3.8/1.
Why does this [chemtrails conspiracy theory] conflict with the cause of global warming or any environmental concern?
According to a survey by Public Policy Polling early in 2013, about 5% of the US populations believes that the government is spreading chemtrails through airplane exhaust. In my experience, about half of the chemtrail believers think global warming is a hoax. The other half believes in it, but doesn't want the government to do anything about it (such as a carbon tax). Of course, there are a few exceptions. Most legislators base their voting solely on what is more likely to get them reelected. A large bloc is already dead set against any meaningful action to reduce global warming, including 58% of Republicans and 23% of Democrats, according to the same poll. Chemtrails believers add about 2.5% to the number believing that global warming is a hoax, and decrease by 2.5% the number of potential climate activists willing to sacrifice. In many districts, this could be enough to turn the representative against meaningful action.

Generic Name: acetaminophen/aspirin/caffeine/salicylamide (a-SEET-a-MIN-oh-fen/AS-pir-in/KAF-een/SAL-i-SIL-a-mide)
Brand Name: Examples include Levacet and Painaid
Levacet is used for:
Relieving migraine headaches. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.
Levacet is an analgesic and antipyretic combination. It works by blocking substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Caffeine constricts blood vessels, which helps to relieve migraine headache.
Do NOT use Levacet if:
- you are allergic to any ingredient in Levacet
- you are a child or teenager with influenza (flu) or chickenpox
- you have bleeding problems, such as hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, or low blood platelets
- you have had a severe allergic reaction (eg, severe rash, hives, breathing difficulties, dizziness) to aspirin, tartrazine, or a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) (eg, celecoxib, ibuprofen, naproxen)
- you are taking an anticoagulant (eg, warfarin) or methotrexate
Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
Before using Levacet:
Some medical conditions may interact with Levacet. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:
- if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
- if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
- if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
- if you have a history of alcohol abuse or if you consume 3 or more alcohol-containing drinks every day
- if you have asthma, bleeding or clotting problems, growths in the nose (nasal polyps), kidney or liver problems (eg, cirrhosis, hepatitis), heart problems, influenza (flu) or chickenpox, vitamin K deficiency, anxiety, or sleeplessness
- if you have or have a history of stomach or peptic ulcers (bleeding ulcers) or other stomach problems (eg, heartburn, upset stomach, stomach pain)
- if the patient is a child with a stroke, a weakened blood vessel (cerebral aneurysm) or bleeding in the brain, or Kawasaki syndrome (a rare inflammation causing heart problems in children)
Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Levacet. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any of the following medicines, especially any of the following:
- Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (eg, acetazolamide) because they may decrease Levacet's effectiveness
- Anticoagulants (eg, warfarin), clopidogrel, corticosteroids (eg, prednisone), heparin, NSAIDs (eg, celecoxib, ibuprofen, naproxen), or serotonin reuptake inhibitors (eg, fluoxetine) because the risk of side effects, including bleeding, may be increased by Levacet
- Insulin, isoniazid, oral hypoglycemics (eg, glyburide), or quinolone antibiotics (eg, ciprofloxacin) because the risk of their side effects may be increased by Levacet
- Methotrexate, theophylline, or valproic acid because the risk of their side effects may be increased by Levacet
- Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors (eg, enalapril), probenecid, or sulfinpyrazone because their effectiveness may be decreased by Levacet
This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Levacet may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
How to use Levacet:
Use Levacet as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
- Take Levacet by mouth with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, take with food to reduce stomach irritation.
- Take Levacet with a full glass of water (8 oz/240 mL). Do not lie down for 30 minutes after taking Levacet.
- Use Levacet exactly as directed on the package, unless instructed differently by your doctor. If you are taking Levacet without a prescription, follow any warnings and precautions on the label.
- If you miss a dose of Levacet and you are taking it regularly, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Levacet.
Important safety information:
- Levacet has acetaminophen and aspirin in it. Before you start any new medicine, check the label to see if it has acetaminophen or aspirin in it too. If it does or if you are not sure, check with your doctor or pharmacist.
- Levacet may harm your liver. Your risk may be greater if you drink alcohol while you are using Levacet. Talk to your doctor before you take Levacet or other fever reducers if you drink more than 3 drinks with alcohol per day.
- A very bad skin reaction (Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis) may happen. It can cause very bad health problems that may not go away and sometimes death. Get medical help right away if you have signs like red, swollen, blistered, or peeling skin (with or without fever); red or irritated eyes; or sores in your mouth, throat, nose, or eyes.
- Do not take more than the dose recommended by your doctor or the package labeling. If you take more than recommended, your risk of severely harming your liver may be increased. If you are not sure how much of Levacet you may take, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
- Aspirin has been linked to a serious illness called Reye syndrome. Do not give Levacet to a child or teenager who has the flu, chickenpox, or a viral infection. Contact your doctor with any questions or concerns.
- Avoid large amounts of food or drink that have caffeine (eg, coffee, tea, cocoa, cola, chocolate). Too much caffeine may cause nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness, or fast heartbeat.
- Serious stomach ulcers or bleeding can occur with the use of Levacet. Taking it in high doses or for a long time, smoking, or drinking alcohol increases the risk of these side effects. Taking Levacet with food will NOT reduce the risk of these effects. Contact your doctor or emergency room at once if you develop severe stomach or back pain; black, tarry stools; vomit that looks like blood or coffee grounds; or unusual weight gain or swelling.
- Levacet may reduce the number of clot-forming cells (platelets) in your blood. Avoid activities that may cause bruising or injury. Tell your doctor if you have unusual bruising or bleeding. Tell your doctor if you have dark, tarry, or bloody stools.
- Tell your doctor or dentist that you take Levacet before you receive any medical or dental care, emergency care, or surgery.
- Do not take Levacet for at least 7 days after any surgery unless directed by your health care provider.
- Levacet may cause false results with some in-home test kits for blood cholesterol. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking Levacet and need to check your blood cholesterol at home.
- PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Levacet while you are pregnant. Levacet is not recommended during the last 3 months (third trimester) of pregnancy. It may cause harm to the fetus or complications during delivery. Levacet is found in breast milk. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you use Levacet, check with your doctor. Discuss any possible risks to your baby.
Possible side effects of Levacet:
All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Check with your doctor if any of these most COMMON side effects persist or become bothersome:
Seek medical attention right away if any of these SEVERE side effects occur:
Heartburn; nausea; upset stomach.
Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); black or bloody stools; confusion; dark urine or pale stools; diarrhea; dizziness; drowsiness; hearing loss; ringing in the ears; severe stomach pain; unusual tiredness; vomiting; yellowing of the skin or eyes.
This is not a complete list of all side effects that may occur. If you have questions about side effects, contact your health care provider. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. To report side effects to the appropriate agency, please read the Guide to Reporting Problems to FDA.
If OVERDOSE is suspected:
Contact 1-800-222-1222 (the American Association of Poison Control Centers), your local poison control center, or emergency room immediately. Symptoms may include dark urine; excessive sweating; extreme fatigue; irregular heartbeat; low blood pressure; stomach pain; vomiting; yellowing of the skin or eyes.Proper storage of Levacet:

Licensed Psychologist
4014 Oleander Office Park. Bldg D, Suite 103, Wilmington, North Carolina 28403
Do you feel controlled by an angry monster? Do you experience road rage or negative encounters at Walmart or the doctor's office? Have you ever punched a wall or thrown an object across the room? Rage is a powerful emotion that can fuel impulsive behavior you later regret. To get it under control, Dr. Staat will teach you a variety of cognitive-behavioral techniques to help you quickly de-escalate, identify and address triggers, and channel angry emotions appropriately. With Dr. Staat's help, you will become more aware of underlying feelings (e.g. fear, sorrow) that rage can mask and you will discover historical traumas that may be unconsciously driving your behavior.

oddly soothing
By nancyo
from franklin tn
i have only worn the gloves so far, but with winter coming in strong, my hands really need extra moisturizing and soothing. the only downside is that i'm only supposed to wear them 30 minutes at a time and only twice/week. the soothing just can't last 3 or more days. while i was wearing them, though, they felt great and afterward for a couple of days. i do have a mild excema and was afraid the gel might inflame the excema, but it actually helped. nicely done.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We men need to get such things for the women we love. They need to have this because they are on their feet all the time and cook for us and handle many a thing for us so anything that shows them we love them, they deserve it. This is just one more thing they need to bring them comfort. We, as men are indebted to those women who take care of us and look out for us. This is JUST ONE THING. There are so many other things to show our appreciation of them.

Relieves the driest skin
By Susan
from Spokane, WA
I am an artist whose hands are often in turpentine and suffer from very dry, itchy hands. One hour of these gloves and my hands are in perfect shape. Relieves all dryness and itching. Love these gloves.
By Lamar
from woodbridge, va
My wife's hands and feet suffer dryness in winter that sometimes results in cracked skin. She uses them a couple times a week at night for an hour or two. Enough to heal cracks. Works as advertised.
Works Great!
By Dee
from Oxford, NC
I couldn't wait to use the items. Easy to put on and felt great! I thought I could keep them on all night, but the directions say only an hour or so and about once a week. The other days I put olive oil on my hands and cover with cotton gloves. Taking the items off is hard because the soft insides stick to your skin. I've found out that if I can grab the finger tip (after my hand is out) and gently pull, I can unravel them correctly.

From today's Fiercebiotech News, FierceBiotech IT [firstname.lastname@example.com]
By George Miller
"… Indiana University is spending $1.5 million from the National Institutes of Health on…high-end computing discovery tools. The Hoosiers' Pervasive Technology Institute Digital Science Center is targeting cloud computing to support life science research.
In addition to busting computing bottlenecks, the center plans to use the cloud for analyzing sequencing data, the volume of which is "one to two orders of magnitude larger than possible with current computational capabilities," according to an industry article. Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and other open source software are expected to be part of the installation.
The center's research team will partner with IU life science research teams to test the platform in such research areas as sequence assembly and population genomics. Cloud technologies will also be applied to gene family clustering and structural visualization.
The IU work is also supported by the National Science Foundation via its FutureGrid experimental supercomputing network project."

My Primary Care Physician is a good guy. His practice implemented an EMR a few years ago- each time I see him, I ask him how that's going and he lets me see how it looks on the tablet PC he carries into the exam room.
My last visit was for an annual checkup a few weeks ago and we were talking about point-of-care tools and integration with his EMR. It turns out that their EMR has no useful functionality to help find or produce patient education handouts he can quickly sent to a printer
I told him it would not be difficult to make a tool that would enable him to find authoritative handouts quickly and easily from the paid resources his practice has available, and he expressed interest in that idea.
He hasn't followed up, but I found the idea interesting, so I started thinking about what sort of tool could be built for this purpose that could be integrated into any EMR using only patient handouts that are available at no cost on the Web.
With that in mind, I came up with a Google Custom Search Engine for use by providers at our hospital, but I see no reason why it couldn't be used by any institution or practice.
The idea behind this is that any search result is not only authoritative, but that it is within a click of a "print" button.
There are built-in refinements for large print, pediatrics, Spanish language, Seniors, and low literacy.
Internists and medical libraryfolk: I'd be grateful for your feedback!

"When I mix a touch of Chanel Illusion D'Ombre gel shadow in Fantasme with Weleda Skin Food, it's magic," says makeup artist Romy Soleimani. The concoction is a highlighter perfect for tapping on cheekbones, brow bones, and lids. Soleimani prefers this over conventional illuminators. "The cream creates a sheer texture, and it's not makeupy," she says. "The effect on skin is beautiful."
The Works-On-
Everyone Lip Stain
For a just-bitten lip shade that's universally flattering, makeup artist Hilda Levierge pairs Nars Lip Gloss in Dolce Vita with C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve and applies with a lip brush. "The salve moisturizes and plumps lips and also cuts down on the shine from the gloss," Levierge says. The result is a pretty—not sticky—pink lip.

Ship Weight:0.25 BeeAlive Enriching Royal Jelly Creme with Rhodiola and Shea Oil - 0.8 oz. (22.7g) BeeAlive Enriching Royal Jelly Creme with Rhodiola and Shea Oil combines the powerful soothing properties of an herbal blend of delicate essential oils with the nourishing benefits of honey, royal jelly and bee propolis. The shea oil in BeeAlive Enriching Royal Jelly Creme provides intense hydration for a long lasting moisturizing effect. BeeAlive Enriching Royal Jelly Creme is formulated with rhodiola to help de-stress your skin for a more vibrant appearance. BeeAlive Enriching Royal Jelly Creme with Rhodiola and Shea Oil is recommended for normal to oily skin types or as a renewing nighttime moisturizer. Bee Alive Enriching Royal Jelly Creme with Rhodiola and Shea Oil is handcrafted and 100% free of synthetic preservatives. Frequently Asked Questions What are the major differences in this all natural skin care line, compared to the previous BeeAlive skin care line or other product lines on the market?BeeAlive Spa Essentials™ are uniquely formulated and manufactured in small batches using an herbal infusion process that combines gentle oils with select combinations of effective and potent herbs. They have also used their knowledge of bee products to combine the ingredients into truly holistic and natural skin care products. Furthermore, unlike most skin care products, where the first ingredients are water and alcohol, they take advantage of the natural fluidity of aloe juice, which helps to improve hydration; while at the same time can supply nutrients without the drying effects of alcohol. What is the shelf life of BeeAlive Spa Essentials™ products?Expiry date is one year from date of production. Why does the product's color and viscosity differ slightly from my last purchase?It is normal for different batches of products to vary in both color and viscosity due to the nature of the natural ingredients used in BeeAlive Spa Essentials™. Be assured that the product quality and results remain the same. I just started using BeeAlive Spa Essentials™ and now I'm breaking out. Is this normal?During the first weeks of a new facial skin care regimen, your skin may go through a "detox" period. Not to worry—this is normal. This tells you that your skin is being cleansed and that the products need time to work. Within 3-4 weeks of using your new facial care regimen, you should find your complexion becoming more balanced and visibly smoother and clear. If, however, you develop a rash, or have irritated or itchy skin, this may be a sign of an allergic reaction and you should stop using the product immediately. Why are the products in this line not "certified organic"?Each seal differs in the standards they set to achieve certain certification. The trouble, they believe, with this is that it may give consumers a false sense of safety. Just because it has an organic or natural seal doesn't mean it is meets YOUR approval. They believe their consumers have the right and responsibility to read, question, and make informed choices about personal care products, by knowing the company and reading the labels. How are the BeeAlive Spa Essentials™ products preserved?It is possible to produce a high quality, well preserved, natural product without the use of harsh synthetic chemical preservatives, parabens, additives, and dyes. The ingredients in BeeAlive Spa Essentials™ were specially chosen and blended to create a natural preservative system. Why did the product packaging change to bottles with a pump?They are packaging BeeAlive Spa Essentials™ in glass serum pump bottles. This prevents contamination and keeps the ingredients in a pure and clean environment, so that there is less contact with bacteria that could harm the purity of the product. They have tested the pump bottles to make sure that the product provides a 45-day supply when used in amounts suggested on the label. The Story Behind BeeAlive™ Spa Essentials™ Skin Care Rose Balletta: "After the birth of our children and becoming more aware of the ingredients in the products I was using, I began doing research. As a result, the way I saw food and skin care changed dramatically. With everything that I have learned from Jason about the benefits of bee products, I thought, wouldn't it be great to combine Petra's knowledge of essential oils and herbs with the benefits of Royal Jelly and other bee products?" Petra Stone: "I believe that what makes my view on skin care different from the mainstream is my background in organic farming, which is the basis for my unique and authentic herbal skin care preparations. They have come together to craft a proprietary formulating process, Herbal-Apiary Simplex, which combines the powerful benefits of bee products with essential oils and herbs, based on generations of herbal and apiary (bee) tradition." The Philosophy of All Natural Skin CareThese delicate formulas are handcrafted, gently infusing the intense nourishing properties of Royal Jelly, Honey, Propolis and Bee Pollen together with the soothing qualities of natural herbs and essential oils. In the same way that bees utilize the pollen of plants to sustain the abundance of nature, they strive to recreate this dynamic in BeeAlive™ Spa Essentials™ philosophy of skin care. Drawing from generations of knowledge, they harvest the youth-giving secrets of nature to formulate a pure line of skin care that will provide you with the ability to rejuvenate your skin and help to counteract visible signs of aging. Nurture your skin with these natural products to help you radiate a visible glow and Harvest Your Authentic Beauty™. Three Core Principles of BeeAlive™ Spa Essentials™ In their new BeeAlive™ Spa Essentials™ skin care products, they use minimally processed plant-based ingredients whenever possible. They believe that the best skin care starts in nature and that the whole is better than isolated parts. For this reason, instead of using Vitamin C created in a lab, they make a gentle extraction of Rosehips. Nurture the delicate ecosystem of your skin by using only gentle products that nourish it, never stripping it of its natural, protective oils. They don't need to use harsh chemicals and abrasives that provide only temporary results. Their philosophy is that nature provides us with everything they need to achieve glowing, healthy skin. Our skin and bodies are in a constant state of regeneration. Our skin relies on the circulation of blood and oxygen to bring new skin cells to the surface and get rid of the old cells that have lost their vibrancy. Exercise, being outside in cold, brisk air and getting massages are all ways of invigorating the circulation. Having good circulation increases the rate of cell turnover, and gives you a healthy glow. BeeAlive™ Spa Essentials™ contain herbs and essential oils designed to stimulate the skin's surface, to invigorate and brighten skin's appearance. About BeeBeeAlive Fresh Royal Jelly is as close to nature as possible. The Royal Jelly used in their products is ALWAYS FRESH, never freeze-dried. Freeze-drying removes all the moisture from the product, thereby reducing it to a crystallized powder. Although working with freeze-dried Royal Jelly is much less complicated and costs less, they believe that the process of freeze-drying, which takes out this significant amount of moisture, compromises the quality of Royal Jelly. And, it has been shown that freeze-drying contributes to and accelerates the degradation of Royal Jelly over time. Royal Jelly is a very delicate substance and needs to be handled with care. At BeeAlive they treat Royal Jelly with the same respect that nature does. That's why, for all of their 28 years in business, they only use the highest quality fresh and never freeze-dried Royal Jelly in their Dietary Supplements. BeeAlive - An Excellent Combination of Integrity, Collaboration and QualityBeeAlive, Inc. began doing business in November 1984, 28 years ago! In all of their dietary supplements, they are dedicated to bringing the benefits of Royal Jelly to their customers by using only fresh, never freeze-dried, Royal Jelly. All BeeAlive Royal Jelly comes from superior, well-cared-for hives in parts of Asia known to be among the best places on Earth from which to harvest Royal Jelly. Royal Jelly is a natural substance from the bee hive that has been used for many years by people throughout the world for increased energy, stamina, and vitality. The exclusive food of the Queen Bee, Royal Jelly is composed of trace amounts of many wonderful nutrients and nutritious, biologically-active compounds. What They Care Most About: Their unwavering commitment is to resource the highest quality ingredients and produce beneficial formulas that are pure and effective. They adhere to a very strict set of standards and operating procedures to provide only the finest Royal Jelly to their customers. Every batch of Royal Jelly that goes into their products is tested by independent, third-party laboratories. This ensures the quality and purity of Royal Jelly. Their excellent team of employees: each employee at BeeAlive is considered an asset and an integral part of their success, and they are especially grateful to the many BeeAlive employees who have been with us for over 20 years, including those who could have retired long ago.

Erasmus And Ghorbel Lead Bulldog' Contingent Competing Across The Globe
DES MOINES, Iowa - Members of the Drake men's tennis team have had a busy summer competing across the globe preparing to help defend the Bulldogs' 2012 Missouri Valley Conference title.
Seniors Jean Erasmus (Winhoek, Namibia) and Anis Ghorbel (Sfax, Tunisia) both represented their countries at the Group III Davis Cup Championship for the Africa region held July 2-6 on clay courts at Cite Nationale Sportive d'El in Tunis, Tunisia.
Ghorbel's Tunisian team was promoted to Europe/Africa Zone Group II competition for 2013 based on winning its pool with victories past Zimbabwe, Ghana and Namibia. Tunisia then eased past Ivory Coast, 2-0, to return to Group II after a one-year absence.
Erasmus' Namibian squad posted a 1-2 mark in pool play, downing Ghana, while suffering setbacks versus Zimbabwe and Tunisia.
Back in the United States, sophomore Grant Tesmer (Lincoln, Neb.) captured the singles title at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Summer Circuit Tournament presented by the United State Tennis Association (USTA) in Wichita, Kan.
Seeded third in the draw, Tesmer posted a 4-0 mark en route to securing the championship, including a 7-5, 6-1 victory over second-seeded John Warden of Oklahoma.

Antibody titer is a laboratory test that measures the level of antibodies in a blood sample.
Titer - antibodies; Serum antibodies
A blood sample is needed. For information on how this is done, see: Venipuncture
No special preparation is necessary for this test.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
The antibody level in the blood tells your doctor whether or not you have been exposed to an antigen or something that the body thinks is foreign. The body uses antibodies to attack and remove foreign substances.
In some situations, your health care provider may check your antibody titer to see if you had an infection in the past (for example, chickenpox) or to decide which immunizations you need.
The antibody titer is also used to determine:
Normal values depend on the antibody being tested.
If the test is being done to look for antibodies against your own body tissues, the normal value would be zero or negative. In some cases, a normal level is below a specific number.
If the test is being done to see if a vaccine fully protects you against a disease, then the normal result depends on the specific value for that immunization.
Negative antibody tests can help rule out certain infections.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
Abnormal results depend on which antibodies are being measured.
Abnormal results may be due to:
Veins vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:

'"It doesn't matter who we play, unless you're getting somebody that's dead nailed out of the playoffs, teams are desperate," said Sabres coach Lindy Ruff. "Teams are desperate to move up, they're desperate for security, they're desperate to get in. You really don't see any light at the end of the tunnel and every game is going to be like that. You might as well as expect it and try to win the games every night."'
