Older Activity Yesterday, 02:29 PM ShelterHelper started a thread Creatine in VEGAN HEALTH Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone else has noticed a big improvement in brain function whilst taking creatine supplements? I have been living a vegan lifestyle for over 8 years or so now. More recently I have been struggling with concentration when studying for my degree course. I tried making improvements in my diet to make sure I was getting all the micro-nutrients and sufficient calories. I also have always taken a B12 tablet since going vegan. Even after making sure my diet is OK etc, I still struggled with a brain fog and lack of clarity in my thinking and concentration. I have taken creatine in the past and it made a big difference and made me feel more alert. So I tried it again and I already feel way more alert and am able to study more successfully. I don't load up on creatine like bodybuilders do but I certainly feel a big difference when taking it as a fairly regular supplement. Anyone else experience this?

| Please ensure that all labeling is carefully packaged on all packages containing any gluten. It is imperative that Celiac Sprue Patients receive the information needed to keep them healthy. Unfortunately, so many ingredients are comprised of gluten that is not listed under ingredients so that the average consumer can understand its meaning. I would like my family to be able to live a "normal" life and shop in some sort of a timely fashion. Just imagine going to the supermarket and having to read every single item that you pick up in your hands. Use this as an experiment one day when you have a couple of hours to spare, because that is how long the average Celiac patient takes to shop because of current labeling.
Thank you, in advance, for your time and attention to this matter. Imagine the difference a few letters of the alphabet can make to a small child or older person who just wants to be well...........
Thank you,

Lost in the spotlight that rightfully shown on New York Giants rookie running back David Wilson and his record-setting night was the record-setting night of third-year safety Stevie Brown, who added two more interceptions to his team-leading total (7).
The interceptions themselves, as impressive as they are, aren't the story. The story is what Brown has done once he's gotten the ball in his hands … and that is run. In fact, he's run for 259 yards, setting a single-season franchise record that has stood since 1963 when cornerback Dick Lynch had 251 interception return yards (safety Emlen Tunnell also had 251 in 1949).
"Stevie finds the ball, or the ball finds him, one way or the other," head coach Tom Coughlin said.
Brown's 259 interception return yards ranks him 16th all-time. Darren Sharper ranks #1 on that list with 376 interception return yards, which occurred in 2009 when he had nine interceptions as a member of the New Orleans Saints.
"I always knew I had it in myself," Brown said. "I was just waiting for my opportunity."
In addition to his franchise record in interception return yards, Brown's 70-yard interception return on Sunday was the longest since Kevin Dockery returned one 96-yards against the Dallas Cowboys on October 23, 2006.

Congressman Tom Price, M.D. (GA-06) responded to President Obama's "false-choice' media campaign on sequestration, that the White House proposed in August 2011, saying:
"The main hallmark of the Obama Administration has been their repeated insistence on raising taxes on the American people. Instead of advancing pro-growth economic policies to get America moving again, the White House favors tax hikes, tax hikes, and more tax hikes. Real spending reductions are exactly what the overwhelming majority of the American people demand. Sadly, President Obama is once again investing his time and energy on a political campaign to increase taxes on the American people instead of working toward positive solutions to budget, prioritize, and rein in spending.
"If sequestration takes place and cuts are made to national security, food safety programs or unemployment benefits, it is solely because President Obama wants this to happen. House Republicans have voted twice to improve sequestration with targeted spending cuts resulting in the same amount of savings. The Democrat majority in Washington, including the president, has provided no specific alternatives. Rather than working cooperatively with Republicans, the president and Washington Democrats are focused on stoking fear among the American people -- exploiting our military and other vital services -- to promote an agenda of tax hikes to chase ever higher spending.
"Sequestration is imperfect due to its across-the-board cuts and its disproportional impact on national security programs. But in an era of trillion dollar deficits and long-term economic uncertainty, responsibly reducing spending is absolutely necessary. President Obama ought to stop putting false choices before the American people, when they are demanding meaningful and lasting reductions in the level of spending, so that we can get our economy rolling and more jobs created."

Socialism vs Corporatism, by Ron Paul
2011 04 05
Lately many have characterized this administration as socialist, or having strong socialist leanings. I differ with this characterization. A closer, honest examination of his policies and actions in office reveals that, much like the previous administration, he is very much a corporatist. This in many ways can be more insidious and worse than being an outright socialist.

Broken Social Scene / Kevin Drew – Live @ Canopy Club
November 14, 2007
Last week's Broken Social Scene concert (the last of their tour) was by far one the weirdest and most memorable I've ever experienced. I arrived at the scene about 5 minutes before the band started playing and still easily found a place up front. I think the confusing show title: Broken Social Scene presents Kevin Drew + Monday Night + overpriced tickets kept alot of people away, which is unfortunate because they missed a show they wouldn't have easily forgot, I'm not sure you could call it a GREAT show, it was definitely enjoyable though. One thing you can't disagree on is that the band started out completely on their game. The first 5 or 6 songs were fantastic. My favorite song on the new album, "Lucky Ones" started the night and everyone sang along to "Yeaaaahhs". The band then kicked ito "Cause=Time" which is a constant battle with "Anthems" and "Dreams of Pavement" as my favorite from the band and they killed the song.
Some of the best songs from Sprit If… were played up front also such as "TBTF", "F-ked Up Kid", and "Safety Bricks". Perhaps the biggest highlight though came when the band shot into "Stars and Sons". The guitar riff that underlies the song was hugely amped up making the song much noisier and more energetic. "Superconnected" was another of the band's older songs that took on a complete new meaning for me live. After the midpoint in the show, the band started playing some longer, more transcendent numbers and a couple random songs from guitarist Brendan Canning and American Analogue Set. There were some great moments though packed in such as the raging "Backed Out On The…", the fast version of "Major Label Debut" , and an extended, haunting "Lover's Spit".
As for the crowd interaction and stage banter, Kevin Drew seemed to get more and more incoherent and awkward as the night when on. Some of his babbling onstage was hilarious (like when he wrote a country song on the spot about how boring Urbana is or sheepishly admitted to buying his sweater at Banana Republic with his grandma). Other times though he just came off as an a**hole. In what was one of the most confusing stage moves ever, once the band had already left the stage Kevin stayed at the mic talking to the crowd about some pretty head-scratching stuff while throwing out phrases like "there's alot of white people in the crowd tonight… with beards". The funniest part of the evening came during this when someone shouted out 'Shoreline!' to which Drew said "Do I look like I'm about to bust into 'Shoreline' right now".
One song that he did sing a bit of on request was Wham!'s "Careless Whisper" which was really funny. Evenutally some people started to leave and Drew actually called them out as to why they're leavin'. Umm, maybe cuz the band stopped playing 15 minutes ago? Totally weird. After what seemed like a half hour of this slightly amusing situation and one impromptu drum solo on Drew's part, the whole band came back on stage for an encore performance of their self/titled closing epic, "It's All Gonna Break". It was a frickin' sweet way to close the concert, but I imagine if the band shortened their set and cut out much of that confusing stage banter, the show would have been altogether more solid.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Months before Tuesday's election, John McCain and Barack Obama were secretly planning for a job only one of them will face — transitioning their political campaigns into a governing machine.
The new president will have a transition of just 77 days from his election to his inuguration to slow the ship of state, replace thousands of government officials and chart a new course.
Since the first transition, in 1797, from president George Washington to John Adams, the peaceful handover of power has become ever more choreographed with each successive administration, especially since World War II.
But the 2009 cycle, from President George W. Bush to his successor will be more fraught than usual, with the United States mired in a financial crisis and with more than 150,000 soliders in combat abroad.
"You have to go back to 1933 to find a transition as equally challenging as this one," said Darrell West, director of Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution, citing the transfer of power to Franklin D. Roosevelt during a banking crisis.
"We have a bad economy, we have two wars, basically there is no money for the new president to address the major problems."
Unlike nations which have a permanent civil service, many top positions in the US government are political appointments, meaning that whole ranks of staff are flushed out by an incoming president.
Tales are legion of aides showing up to work at the White House after the inuguration to find computers stripped of hard discs, offices with no files and no idea how to do their jobs.
President Harry Truman famously knew nothing about the nascent US atomic weapons program when he assumed power after the death of Roosevelt in 1945.
Whoever wins in Tuesday's election will move quickly to put the key elements of their governing team in place.
"Right after the election, you would expect, particularly if it is Barack Obama, a decision making team in place," said Martha Kumar, a political science professor at Towson University, who has studied presidential transitions.
That would include a White House chief of staff, personnel director, a presidential legal counsel, a press team, national security advisors, National Economic Council officials and a budget director, she said.
It is thought likely that Obama would also act quickly to appoint a Secretary of Defense — Bush's Pentagon chief Robert Gates has been mentioned as a candidate — and Treasury Secretary.
Given the financial turmoil McCain would also be expected to put together an economic team quickly to calm roiled stockmarkets.
In all, president-elects have the power to appoint around 7,000 people to serve in their administration — but tend to concentrate at first on just a few hundred crucial posts.
If Obama wins, he is likely to find it easier to get key officials quickly cleared through Senate confirmation, with Democrats in control on Capitol Hill than McCain who could see key personel challenged by the rival party.
Such is the complicated nature of presidential transitions that both candidates have been preparing for months — though in secrecy so as not to appear to be prejudging the election.
John Podesta, once White House chief of staff for president Bill Clinton heads the Obama transition team, sketching transition plans and vetting potential candidates for top government jobs.
Democrats have bad memories of the chaotic Clinton transition in 1992-93, which left the administration floundering in its first few months in office.
McCain's transition pointman is former Reagan administration Navy secretary, John Lehman, who may seek to emulate the highly efficient Bush effort during the 2000-2001 transition which was truncated by the Florida recount debacle.
US government departments have also been getting ready for months — for the first wartime change of presidents for 40 years, which has sparked fears that US enemies might try to exploit the situation.
Gates has spoken of the need for a smooth handover, and to find a way to get top national security nominees security clearances as quickly as possible.
Bush requested 8.5 million dollars in funding from his 2009 budget for the transition, which will see the president elect's team given office space in Washington DC.
Soon after election day, the White House will offer briefings and other help to the top aides of the president-elect and members of the winner's press operation have been invited to shadow members of Bush's spokespeople.

You need to recompile the application with debug symbols. In GCC/G++, do this by passing -g on the command line, or adding it to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS.

Established in May 2006 by the University of Cologne, the Graduate School for Biological Sciences (GSfBS) offers a broad program, giving students the opportunity to train in all biological fields ranging from ecology and plant biology to genetics, molecular medicine and evolution. GSfBS developed after building on the experience and infrastructure from existing, small-scale graduate programmes, where methods and structure for improved graduate training have been extensively tested. These programs are partially unified and a core programme is available for graduate students in all areas of biology.
The School also supports a selective, international Fast Track Masters/Doctoral Program in English, which has been active since winter semester 2006/07. It fosters connections between research groups in medical and basic science research institutes of the University of Cologne and the Max Planck Institutes for Plant Breeding Research and the Biology of Ageing and exploits them in favor of the graduate students.

Third, both sides had to think of the summit not as a chance for unilateral victory, but as a win-win game—and they did.
The Nevada Democrat would largely give President Obama unilateral power to boost the debt ceiling.
President Shimon Peres is opposed to a unilateral solo strike, as is, of course, the United States.
The right course calls for engagement, with tough redlines, backed by unilateral operations when needed.
The 2010 election was unilateral; many groups were excluded.
Concessions, in this bargaining, must of course be reciprocal, not unilateral.
It can be part of a unilateral transfer or of a bilateral exchange of population.
It is almost always bilateral, but in some cases of unilateral palpebral tic it is more pronounced on the side of the latter.
Like many other lingual affections, this is often unilateral.
In the second, unilateral stimulus acts directly on the responding organ.
1802, from Modern Latin unilateralis, from unum, neuter of unus "one" (see one) + latus (genitive lateralis) "side" (see oblate (n.)). Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) may have been the first to use it in the legal sense of "made or entered into by one party." Unilateral disarmament is recorded from 1929.
It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favor of vegetarianism, while the wolf remains of a different opinion. [William Ralph Inge, "Outspoken Essays," 1919]
