The Benefits of Almond Oil for Skin
Many people are already aware of the health benefits that come from eating almonds, but did you know that you can use almond oil for skin treatments, or as part of your regular skin care regimen? This ingredient has been used in specialty soap for quite some time, but has been getting more attention as a skin care product ingredient because of its many positive effects on skin health and appearance. Although the use of almond oil for skin treatments and products has become more common, it is important to understand what the oil does.
Almond Oil Benefits and Uses
Almond oil is made by pressing raw almonds without cooking them. This is something you may have heard about in other health products, where something is "raw" or "cold pressed." This means that little to no heat is used in the process, thereby preserving all the naturally occurring chemical compounds within the oil, so that they can directly benefit the skin.
One of the biggest secrets behind the use of almond oil for skin treatments is the high level of fatty acids contained in the final oil mixture. Fatty acids serve as a natural emollient for the skin, and can help the skin lock in moisture by forming a protective barrier. Emollients are especially effective for conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea.
Now, if you have oily skin, you might at first feel wary about putting any kind of oil on your skin, even if it's just an ingredient in a face cream. However, the acne-forming oil that is produced by your skin is very different from the processed almond oil for skin treatments. With acne, some people are more prone to produce a sticky oil called sebum that can clog the pores with dead skin cells and other debris. However, the fatty acids in almond oil actually help dissolve the sebum that your skin produces, creating cleaner skin and pores, and helping to get rid of acne.
One of the other reasons why almond oil is beneficial is because of its ability to plump and firm the skin. Almond oil works as a natural face exfoliator to help to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of healthier skin. When used topically, the formulated almond oil for skin products or treatments is absorbed by the fatty cells of the skin. The moisture in the oil is then utilized by the tissues to repair damaged cells and give skin a more youthful appearance.
How to Use Almond Oil
There are a two different ways to use almond oil for skin treatments. First, almond oil is a common ingredient in many cosmetics, but it does come in different forms. Sweet almond oil is used to clean out pores and add moisture to the skin, while bitter almond oil is added to products as a fragrance. To experience the full benefits of almond oil in your skin care regimen, check the label to make sure the product includes sweet almond oil.
Also, some people choose to use this oil directly on the skin. When using almond oil for skin care, it can be mixed with other lubricants, like lanolin, to serve as a makeup remover, moisturizer, or it can even be used on the scalp to reduce dandruff.
Who Can Use Almond Oil?
Almond oil is generally safe for anyone to use, even young children. However, you should be aware that this oil is still a form of almonds, and people who suffer from nut allergies of any kind should stay clear of products that contain almond oil. If you do end up using products with almond oil for skin treatments, keep in mind that it is not a miracle ingredient, and will not produce the same results as professional skin care procedures.

Death of an Anchor
Word comes to me today from my brother of the death of Ron Stone, a T.V, anchor/personality in Houston for many years. My brother had worked with Stone on a number of projects and was quite fond of him.
Stone was in the second generation of television personalities in Houston. He started anchoring in 1962 for KHOU T.V., channel 11 Houston/Galveston. Channel 11 had started in Galveston in the early 1950s and was owned, in part, by the actor Jimmy Stewart. Stewart was on the first broadcast, which was to be a Stewart movie. However, due to technical difficulties the movie would not run. This forced the station to send out a car to wake up and pick up local celebrity "Utah" Carl Beach, a country western singer. Utah performed until the movie got going and was rewarded with a weekly television show which ran throughout my childhood on Saturday and sometimes Sunday afternoons. It was called the Gulf Coast Jamboree and Carl hawked furniture for an outfit in Alvin called the Gulf Coast Furniture Warehouse. Utah Carl did the commercials between songs and delighted in then introducing his steel guitar player who, according to Carl ,was "totally blind". But I digress.
The initial Houston anchors were hard bitten old news men and radio reporters. By the time "Stony" came along, the stars of the news had all had television reporting experience. Stone actually started his tenure at 11 just as Channel 13 Ray Conaway was on his way out. Ray had been the anchor for 13 since the days of the 50s, when it was a 15 minute show brought to you by HL&P whose Ready Kilowatt wanted you to know that you really did live better "electrically". Conaway was eased out of the anchor chair at 13 when some technicians forgot to edit the footage of his report on the 1964 New York World's Fair, which, unfortunately for Ray still contained the sentence he uttered while putting the piece together at the studio, "God damn it shut off that motherfucking electric saw." Stone's predecessors at 11 were guys like Larry Rascoe and hard charging reporter Dan Rather who, the year before Stone's tenure began, had lashed himself to a tree on Galveston Island so as to better report the ravages of Hurricane Carla, the primary natural disaster of my youth. Rather rode that wave all the way to Washington where his tormenting of Richard Nixon during the Watergate scandal got him Walter Cronkite's anchor chair, to the chagrin of the colorless Roger Mudd who had waited patiently for it.
Within a couple of years the channel 11 "a" news team consisted of Stone (beloved for his "good night neighbor" at the end of every newscast) Sid Lasher, the weatherman, often referred to by Ed Edwards, later a bad sportscaster, as "Motzah Ball Sid" and Johnny Temple, a recently retired second baseman for the Colt .45s. who did sports until arrested and convicted in a mysterious burglary and fencing scheme when all the stolen goods were found at his house. Temple was finally replaced by Ron Franklin who is still a star today at ESPN. Franklin stayed until lured away to Channel 2 following the untimely death of Bill Ennis "Night Beat Sports !"
Only months before the tragic death of Ennis, Sid Lasher had died, at his weather map, just as the news was going on the air on Channel 11. The telecast was canceled except for a brief and heartfelt obituary by Stone who, in part because of that obituary, became as popular as Sid had been. Stone was rewarded with the anchor job at Channel 2, the number one rated station in Houston when their anchor, Steve Smith, decided to go to a big market in Pennsylvania. He flamed out there and came back to Houston a little later, taking Stone's old job at Channel 11.
From that day, 1972 I think, until today, Stone was much beloved in Houston. He eventually took over a syndicated show which had been run by Ray Miller called "the Eyes of Texas" and Stone became a very respected Texas historian, which is not bad for an Okie. He dropped the "goodnight neighbor" business and put on a Tux every year for the Jerry Lewis telethon and pretty much ruled the airwaves until about 1976 when Channel 13 hired the recently fired Deputy Sherriff for Consumer Affairs, Marvin Zindler and began focusing on shutting down whore houses which were not within 100 miles of Houston. It may have not been local news but it was a hell of a lot more interesting than the usual local drivel and Channel 13's descent into yellow journalism with their idiot anchor Dave Ward has kept them number one for many, many years. You have got to give the people what they want, and what the want is sex, blood and reports of slime in a restaurant's ice machine.
But really, for the most part, those that followed Stone in local news were a lot like him. They were better looking, you can't look like a hardware salesman anymore, like Stone did, and make it on T.V., but they are friendly and respectable and polite, just like Stone was. They convey sincerity, which was Stone's greatest attribute, probably because he was sincere. In short, they are nothing like Dan Rather, the Houston skyrocket who finally had the very public national crash and burn that he deserved. Stone never lashed himself to a tree, because he knew that when you did that you became the story and the real story faded in significance. He just calmly reported things as factually as he could, for as long as he cared to, and then slipped away. He was an honest fellow, who worked hard and did not offend people. Not a bad legacy.

Ready, Set, Retro For Kimmel Racing This Weekend At Salem Speedway
Posted by: newsla on Sep 14, 2012 - 05:31 PM
Ready, Set, Retro For Kimmel Racing This Weekend At Salem Speedway
This weekend, the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards tour returns to the historic Salem (Ind.) Speedway for Saturday nightâs running of the Kentuckiana Ford Dealers Fall Classic by Federated Car Care.
If thereâs a track that Kimmel Racing and Will Kimmel are more than able to steal the limelight and wheel their No. 69 Kentuckiana Ford Dealers Ford Fusion into victory lane, Salem Speedway tops the charts. And, it goes without saying the crowd will likely explode with chants and cheers should Kimmel Racing be able to accomplish that feat.
While itâs been another clan of the Kimmel family that has paved its way into the local fast lane, steadily the younger Kimmel has begun marking his territory on the circuit. In fact, it started last October right at Salem Speedway. Heâs hoping that trend continues Saturday night.
Rewinding back 12 months for a second, Kimmel had virtually a flawless race. After starting 10th, the local favorite worked his way into the lead and commanded the race for 79-laps before eventually falling into the clutches of race winner Chris Buescher. Still, the runner-up finish has left something to be desired by the Clarksville, Indiana-based team and they are hoping for a repeat type performance this weekend.
âItâs finally here,â said Kimmel. âIt seems weâve been waiting for this race for a while now, but now itâs upon us and weâre more than ready. We have plenty of unfinished business if you will at Salem. We had a stellar run there last October. In the spring, we had a great Ford Fusion. We were fast and just biding our time and were collected into a wreck. That was frustrating â but weâve moved on and weâre focused for what Saturday night may bring.â
With the Kimmel name being paramount at Salem Speedway, the Sellersburg, Indiana native knows that the fan support will be heavy on Saturday night not to mention his own personal cheering section which will include family and friends for the 18th race of the season.
âThis has always been a huge race for our family,â sounded Kimmel, who will make his fourth career ARCA start at Salem. âWeâve always had the fan support whether itâs been an ARCA or a Late Model race, so thatâs just an extra push to go out there and do well. For us, to also have the support of the Kentuckiana Ford Dealers is very humbling. Theyâve been around the ARCA Series for a long, long time and for us to have another opportunity to represent them is a blessing.â
The No. 69 Kentuckiana Ford Dealers Ford Fusion will slightly have a different look when it unloads at the 0.5-mile oval on Saturday. The teamâs automobile will adorn a similar paint and number scheme to retro Bill Kimmel Sr. look from his 1973 Fairgrounds Motor Speedway championship as well as the 1973 American Speed Association (ASA) ownerâs championship.
âItâs pretty cool to flash back in time and honor my Grandfather with his colors for Saturday night,â remarked the 24-year old Kimmel. âHe had a lot of success in 1973. Who knows we might make new records of our own with this look.â
When Kimmel isnât behind the wheel of the No. 69 Kentuckiana Ford Dealers Ford Fusion, the Indiana native is busting his hump with his full service lawn care business which serves several surrounding cities and includes both business and residential clients.
âIt keeps me busy, thatâs for sure,â Kimmel explained. âFrom the moment the sun rises until it begins to set it seems like Iâm out there hard at it. Itâs a lot of work â but it helps out with stuff that we need in the shop. The familyâs real supportive so that makes things a lot easier to deal with.â
The Kentuckiana Ford Dealers Fall Classic by Federated Car Care (200 laps / 111 miles) is the 18th of 20 events on the 2012 ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards schedule. The 92nd ARCA race held at Salem Speedway is a one day show. Practice begins Saturday, September 15 with a forty-five minute session planned from 12:30 p.m. - 1:15 p.m. Final practice also consisting of forty-five minutes begins at 1:45 p.m. and will conclude at 2:30 p.m. Menards pole qualifying presented by Ansell is set for later in the day slated to begin at 4:00 p.m. An on-track autograph session has been etched in immediately following qualifying. The event will take the green flag shortly after 7:15 p.m. later that night. The race will not be televised but additional coverage including a radio broadcast and timing and scoring will be available through the ARCA Racing Network (ARN) online at arcaracing.com. All times are local (Eastern).

As seen in its second quarter report, Facebook (FB) is having no problems with the move to mobile. Revenues surged by 53% to $1.81 billion, and earnings jumped by 58% to 19 cents per share. And monthly active mobile users were up a staggering 51% to 819 million.
But of course, Facebook wants to do more and more. And one of its biggest goals is apparently to become more like Twitter.
Consider some of the recent features on Facebook: hashtags, real-time content in the Newsfeed, embedded posts, verified accounts and even trending topics (some of these are still in the early beta phase). These are all core ingredients of Twitter that have turned the service into a mega success, and have also provided nice opportunities to get a piece of the ad market.
Interestingly enough, Facebook has been trying to woo celebrities, too. There is a team that is focused on this initiative, which includes biggies like Glenn Miller, who was at the helm of digital strategy at the CAA talent agency.
But will being more Twitter-like be a good move for Facebook? Let's face it, Facebook's screen is already getting crowded — especially on mobile platforms.
Besides, Twitter has already become heavily embedded in the world's psyche for real-time content. So will media organizations, brands and famous people really make Facebook their default platform to connect with their audiences? Well, they'll probably give it a try. But still, Twitter has the big advantage of a being obsessively focused on this for quite a while.
No doubt, Mark Zuckerberg has done a fantastic job getting Facebook back on track and monetizing it at a healthy pace. But making the service like Twitter has big risks.
If anything, the best strategy would be to outright buy Twitter and keep it as its own brand, as Facebook did with Instagram. With the recent surge in the stock price — and a nice chunk of cash in the bank account — Facebook could certainly make a very attractive offer for the company.
That way, Facebook could keep doing what it does extremely well: being a social network.

At a rally in Colorado for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Ken Buck, Tom Tancredo once again went over the top. He is quoted as saying;
"I truly believe this....I believe this with all my heart, that the greatest threat to the United States today, the greatest threat to our liberty, the greatest threat to the Constitution, the greatest threat to our way of life, everything we believe in, the greatest threat to the country put together by the Founding Fathers, is the guy who is in the White House today."
Of course Tancredo is famous for hyperbole, but even for him this was bordering on an insane statement. To his credit even Ken Buck distanced himself from Tancredo's remarks by saying; "I think he's created a new word in the dictionary; it's called a Tancredo-ism. I don't agree. I think there are a lot of threats to this country, and I don't think the man in the White House is the greatest threat to this country at all,", but still it raises the obvious question, is Tom Tancredo bat guano crazy or not? Also, if you were running for office in the GOP, would you want him at one of your rallies?

TIK TOK Tamil Short film
TIK TOK Tamil Short film
A short film is any film not long enough to be considered a feature film. Although no consensus exists as to where that boundary is drawn, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences defines a short film as "an original motion picture that has a running time of 40 minutes or less, including all credits".[1] The term featurette originally applied to a film longer than a short subject, but shorter than a standard feature film.
The increasingly rare term short subject means approximately the same thing. An industry term, it carries more of an assumption that the film is shown as part of a presentation along with a feature film. Short is an abbreviation for either term. Short films are often screened at local, national, or international film festivals and made by independent filmmakers for non profit, either with a low budget or no budget at all. They are usually funded by film grants, non profit organizations, sponsor, or personal funds. Short films are generally used by filmmakers to gain experience and/or prove their talent in order to gain funding for future films from private investors, entertainment companies, or film studios.
Longer and shorter films coexisted with similar popularity throughout the early days of film. However, comedy short films were produced in large numbers compared to lengthy features such as D.W. Griffith's The Birth of a Nation. By the 1920s, a ticket purchased a varied program including a feature and several supporting works from categories such as second feature, short comedy, 5–10 minute cartoon, travelogue and newsreel.
Short comedies were especially popular, and typically came in a serial or series (such as the Our Gang movies, or the many outings of Charlie Chaplin's Little Tramp character). Even though there was often no set release schedule, these series could be considered somewhat like a modern TV sitcom – lower in status than feature films but nevertheless very popular (comedians such as Laurel and Hardy, Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton all 'graduated' from shorts to features). TIK TOK Tamil Short film
Animated cartoons came principally as short subjects. Virtually all major film production companies had units assigned to develop and produce shorts, and many companies, especially in the silent and very early sound era, produced mostly or only short subjects. TIK TOK Tamil Short film
In the 1930s, the distribution system changed in many countries owing to the Great Depression. Instead of the cinema owner assembling a program of their own choice, the studios sold a package centered on a main and supporting feature, a cartoon and little else. With the rise of the double feature, two reel shorts went into decline as a commercial category. Hal Roach, for example, moved Laurel and Hardy full-time into feature films after 1935, and halved his popular Our Gang films to one reel. By the 1940s, he'd moved out of short films altogether (though MGM continued the Our Gang shorts until 1944) TIK TOK Tamil Short film
Later shorts include George O'Hanlon's Joe McDoakes movies, and the animated work of studios such as Walt Disney Productions, Leon Schlesinger Productions/Warner Bros. Cartoons. By the mid-1950s, with the rise of television, the commercial live-action short was virtually dead, The Three Stooges being the last major series of 2-reelers, ending in 1959. Short films had become a medium for student, independent and specialty work. TIK TOK Tamil Short film
Cartoon shorts had a longer life, due in part to the implementation of lower-cost limited animation techniques, but also declined in this period. Warner Bros., one of the most prolific of the golden era, shut down its studio permanently in 1969. The Pink Panther was the last regular theatrical cartoon short series, having begun in 1964 (and thus having spent its entire existence in the limited animation era) and ended in 1980. By the 1960s, the market for animated shorts had largely shifted to television, with existing theatrical shorts being syndicated to television.

United Way Board sets 2007-2008 campaign goal at $145,000
By FAITH HUFFMAN | News-Telegram News Editor
June 17, 2007 - Hopkins County United Way Board of Directors on Friday set its campaign goal at $145,000, increasing last year's goal by $5,000 while approving all except one of the budget and allocations committee's recommendations for funding in 2008.
HCUW received requests from 17 agencies for $177,450, and allocated funds to 16 of those agencies as well as $15,050 for administrative expenses and the required 10 percent fee of $1,450 to United Way of America.
Last year's campaign goal of $140,000 was not only met, but was exceeded to the point the board of directors met again and voted to designate more money to each agency. An additional $14,900 was approved to completely fund all the requests made by each benefiting agency as well as an additional $1,000 above that request for each agencies. Overall, HCUW was able to give $171,900 to benefiting agencies last year.
No new agencies were added to HCUW's list, although one did apply this year. AlumiNation Association requested $10,000. The budget and allocation committee recommended that if the board wanted to assist the agency, that it be given a $1,000 one-time gift, if at all. The board opted not to fund the agency at this time, due to lack of information about AlumiNation. They did note, however, that the program overseer as well as members of its board could at a later time, possibly in the spring, go before the board again with more complete information about the program for consideration of funding later.
The largest chunk of this year's $145,000 goal was allocated to Community Chest. Last year, the group asked for $56,000, was allocated $54,000, and received $57,000. This year, Community Chest has been allocated $55,000.
The next largest amount this year, $10,000, will go to Hopkins County Christian Alliance. Last year, Christian Alliance asked for $15,000, were allocated $10,000 but ultimately received $16,000.
Lake Country Court Appointed Special Advocates, known as CASA, and Hopkins County Community Action Network have each been allocated to receive $9,000 from this year's campaign which kicks off and continues through the month of October. Both requested $9,000 last year, with CASA allocated the full $9,000 and HCCAN $8,000. With the extra funds, both CASA and HCCAN were awarded $10,000 each. This year CASA asked fro $9,000 and HCCAN $10,000.
Three agencies — North East Texas Food Bank, Boys & Girls Clubs of Hopkins County and Meal-A-Day have each been allocated $5,000 of this year's $140,000 campaign goal. The all three agencies requested only $5,000 this year. Last year, the food bank was allocated $6,000 and both Meal-A-Day and B&GC $5,000 each. It should be noted that Meal-A-Day's allocation is awarded in the form of food credit at the Food Bank.
Northeast Texas Child Advocacy Center last year asked for $4,500, and was allocated $5,500. NETCAC asked for $5,5000 again this year, but has again been allocated $4,500.
The four agencies allocated to receive $4,000 each from this year's campaign are Family Haven, Our Place, Heritage Outreach and Child Protective Services. Family Haven was requested $t,000 last year, was allocated $3,000 and received $6,000 last year, and asked for $6,000 this year. Our Place requested and was allocated $4,000 last year, awarded $5,000 and asked for $5,000 again this year. Heritage Outreach requested $5,000 last year, was allocated $3,500, was awarded $6,000 and asked for $5,000 again this year. CPS requested only $4,000 again this year.
East Texas Council on Alcohol and Drug Abuse (ETCADA) and 4-H have each been allocated $3,000 this year. Last year, 4-H requested $3,000, was originally allocated $2,600 and was awarded $4,000. This year, 4-H asked for $6,500. ETCADA (operating formerly as Northeast Texas CADA) requested $3,000 and was allocated $2,500 last year. This year ETCADA asked for $4,000.
This year, Girl Scouts again asked for $4,000 but was again allocated $2,500. Teen Court asked for $2,500 this year, $1,000 more than was asked for last year. They were again awarded $1,500.
Charlotte Henderson, executive secretary, originally asked for $15,500 for administrative expenses associated with this year's campaign. She did some refiguring and decided $450 could be cut from that request, and proposed to the allocations committee that the amount be reduced to $15,050. The allocations committee recommended that amount, which the board approved Friday. Last year, $14,500 was requested and approved for administrative expenses.
Also Friday, John Berning, Joel Jackson, capaign chairman Randal Voss, Chris Taffer, Carolyn McKinney and Rowena Johnson were announced as new members of the HCUW Board of Directors, who replace outgoing members Judy Tipping, Cathy Chitwood and John Prickette. The HCUW Board of Directors also includes Bob Weaver, campaign president, Janie Crump, Suzanne Bauer, Wanda Galyean, Heath Halbert, Brandon Brewer and Deanna Landers on the board.

Utah plays its one dress rehearsal tomorrow night at the Huntsman Center against St. Martin's. Here are some of the things to keep an eye out for as the Runnin' Utes prepare for their season-opener next week against Evergreen State.
1) Jordan Loveridge is in the process of making the leap from supporting character to lead role. The offense last year went largely through departed seniors Jarred DuBois and Jason Washburn. Loveridge will have a much bigger role as a sophomore. He will get more touches, higher usage and a big opportunity to improve on the 12 points per game he averaged as one of the better freshmen in the Pac-12.

Iran doctored missile test-firing photo: defence analyst
LONDON, July 10 (AFP) Jul 10, 2008
A defence analyst said on Thursday that Iran had apparently doctored photographs of missile test-firings and exaggerated the capabilities of the weapons.
Iran on Wednesday test-fired nine missiles -- including a Shahab-3 it said was capable of reaching Israel -- angering the United States amid fears that the standoff over the Islamic republic's contested nuclear drive could lead to war.
Photographs published on the Iranian Revolutionary Guards website showed four missiles taking off from a desert launchpad.
But one of the missiles had apparently been added to the photograph using elements from the smoke trail and dust clouds from two of the other missiles.
After being shown the photograph by AFP, Mark Fitzpatrick of the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) said: "It very much does appear that Iran doctored the photo to cover up what apparently was a misfiring of one of the missiles.
"The whole purpose of this testing was to send a signal so Iran both exaggerated the capabilities of the missile in their prose and apparently doctored the photos as well."
The state-run Iranian channel Al-Alam said the missiles test-fired by the Revolutionary Guards included a Shahab-3 with a one-tonne conventional warhead and a range of 2,000 kilometres (1,240 miles).
But Fitzpatrick, a former US State Department official, said: "In terms of capability, they claimed the Shahab-3 could travel 2,000 kilometres carrying a one-tonne warhead. This is very unlikely.
"The Shahab-3 normally has a range of 1,300 kilometres and the range can be extended to 2,000 kilometres but it would require a much lighter warhead.
"This is typical of Iran to exaggerate the accomplishments of the missiles and its nuclear programme."
Several experts on photography agreed that the photograph had been manipulated.
"It's a doctored image," said Gerard Issert, a technician at Granon, one of the largest photo laboratories in Paris.
"Although the missiles weren't all equidistant from the camera, they're the same size in the picture," Issert told AFP in the southern French city of Arles.
A defiant Iran test-fired more missiles on Thursday, as US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice warned Tehran that Washington had beefed up its security presence in the Gulf and would not hesitate to defend Israel and other allies in the region.
The United States believes Iran is covertly developing nuclear weapons, a claim denied by the Islamic republic which insists the purpose of its programme is energy.All rights reserved. © 2005 Agence France-Presse.

This will work with OpenVPN in 1.2beta2 and has been tested quite a bit (in
fact it almost describes my test environment).
Use the setup for the Road Warrior scenario from
You need to think about whether you want 'all' your traffic to go via the
tunnel or not (this is technically 'split routing' and is controlled by the
'redirect-gateway' option). I suggest that you have 'redirect-gateway' on
but not the 'local' option. This means that traffic on your LAN will not go
via the tunnel, but will do so when you leave the office.
Also, don't forget that you will need a firewall rule to allow inbound
UDP/5000 from the WAN interface so that you can use it outside.

Many advanced cancer patients don't understand that chemotherapy is palliative, not curative. A study in the New England Journal of Medicine found 69 per cent of patients with terminal lung cancer and 81 per cent of those with terminal colorectal cancer hoped for some sort of cure from chemotherapy.
To understand this misplaced optimism, researchers surveyed 1200 patients with stage IV cancer at diagnosis who opted for chemotherapy.
While non-white and Hispanic patients were more likely to express mistaken optimism, so were patients who rated communication with their physician as very favourable.
This suggests patients perceive physicians as better communicators when they convey a more optimistic view of chemotherapy.
But an editorial in the same journal questioned what patients think of as a cure? Rather than eradication of disease, perhaps for some it means less pain or less incapacity tomorrow.

Bob Schieffer concluded Sunday's "Face the Nation" with a weather metaphor-filled comment about today's politics.
With his final observation, the viewer was left with the impression the long-time host feels everything that's happened to President Obama is just bad luck (video follows with transcript and commentary):
BOB SCHIEFFER: Finally today, the people on the sidelines, including me used weather metaphors so often before the election they became a collective cliche. "The winds were blowing the Republican way," we kept saying. The only question would it be a tropical storm or a hurricane? Well, for sure it was a big blow. And for the Republic-- for the President, I should say, the ill wind just kept on blowing.
His trip to Asia turned out as badly as the election. How long has it been that a President went to a foreign capital to put the finishing touches on a trade agreement, only to come away with nothing? Did no one in the White House staff see that coming? How can that be? And when the President tried to lecture China on their monetary policy, he was politely told to mind his own business. That's not a great signal to send to the rest of the world.
If that were not bad enough, look at another storm coming when Congress reconvenes this week. Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi is already baulking at any kind of compromise to extend the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy. Republicans say without that, all deals are off. So the tax cuts for everyone may expire at year's end. And that's just the half of it.
The middle has fallen out of our politics. Democrats elected to next year's new Congress are more liberal than those in the current Congress, and the Republicans more conservative. So the partisan divide is bound to grow wider. I hate to keep using these weather metaphors, but for this President when it rains it just seems to pour. And keep on pouring.
To be sure, this wasn't how Schieffer likely felt during the campaign of 2008 or even last year when most media members were still caught up in the Hope and Change thing.
But with unemployment stuck around ten percent, a devastating loss in the midterms, and the sense by some in Washington that the current White House resident really is way over his head, the once smitten press are clearly as dazed and confused as the man they hitched their wagons to.
In keeping with Schieffer's theme, Obama was the sunshine of their life. These folks collectively thought his election would bring clear skies from now on.
Unfortunately, their hero and his Party badly misread the winds of change and began implementing policies that received a very cold reception causing businesses to suffer a longer dry-spell than anyone anticipated.
This made the President become a lightning rod for Party criticism which gusted in from all sides culminating in them being totally blown away on Election Day.
Yet, despite all the missteps and miscalculations by the man at the helm as well as his team below deck, Schieffer sees Obama's current condition as an example of into each life some rain must fall.
Makes you wonder how many others in the media are trying to put on a happy face in the hopes that grey skies are gonna clear up in time to save their hero from prematurely entering into his sunset years in 2012.

Beijing March 13, 2014
China's industrial production rose at its slowest pace in five years and other key indicators showed surprising weakness, data showed Thursday, raising alarm bells over the world's second-largest economy as Premier Li Keqiang outlined "serious challenges" ahead. Industrial output, which measures production at factories, workshops and mines, rose 8.6 percent in January and February year-on-year, the National Bureau of Statistics said on its website. The result was the lowest since the 7.3 percent recorded in April 2009, according to previous NBS data. The statistics covered a two-month period due to China's Lunar New year holiday week, which fell in both months. Retail sales, a key indicator of consumer spending, gained 11.8 percent in the two months from the year before, the lowest since an 11.6 percent increase in February 2011. And fixed asset investment, a measure of government spending on infrastructure, expanded 17.9 percent during the first two months of 2014, the NBS added. The pessimistic data set surprised economists and followed other recent indicators for manufacturing, trade and inflation that suggested weakness in China's economy, a key global growth engine. China's gross domestic product (GDP) grew 7.7 percent in 2013, unchanged from the year before, which was the worst result since 1999. Premier Li Keqiang announced earlier this month that it is targeting economic growth of about 7.5 percent in 2014, the same target it aimed for last year. Li suggested to his once-a-year news conference after the close of the annual session of the National People's Congress (NPC), the Communist Party-controlled legislature, that the country faces roadblocks ahead. "We are going to confront serious challenges this year and some challenges may be even more complex," he said. Li said China must "ensure steady growth, ensure employment, avert inflation and defuse risks" while also fighting pollution, among other tasks. "So we need to strike a proper balance amidst all these goals and objectives," he added. "This is not going to be easy." Zhou Hao, Shanghai-based economist for ANZ Bank, called Thursday's data "a complete mess" and said it showed that policies were needed to spur growth. "Basically none of the figures were in line with expectations, all came in much lower than expected," he told AFP. A Wall Street Journal survey of 13 economists had yielded a median forecast of a 9.5 percent increase in industrial output and 13.5 percent for retail sales. Societe Generale said in a research note that the results were a confirmation of "fast deterioration of China's economic growth". The figures come as China's leadership says it wants to transform the growth model away from an over-reliance on often wasteful investment, and instead make private demand the driver for the country's future development. Regarding China's growth target of "about 7.5 percent" for this year, Li suggested it was achievable. "Last year, without taking any additional short-term stimulus measures, we succeeded in meeting our target," he said. "Why can't we do this this year?" He emphasised the target was approximate. "This 'about' shows that there is a level of flexibility here." At any rate, he said authorities were not focused on the figure itself, but how it contributes to improving livelihoods, saying growth "needs to ensure fairly full employment and needs to help increase people's income". Still, some economists expect the government to take steps to deal with the weakness the latest figures indicate. "In the future, I don't rule out the possibility of new measures including cutting banks' reserve requirements, but the central bank might still need some time to deliberate," ANZ's Zhou said, referring to cutting the amount of funds banks must keep in reserve in a bid to boost lending and boost growth. But Julian Evans-Pritchard, Asia economist for Capital Economics, said that officials were unlikely to intervene. "Limited and seasonally-distorted data over the last few weeks have made it difficult to make sense of what's really happening in China's economy," he said in a note. "Despite this broad evidence of a slowdown, we don't think policymakers will necessarily step in to support growth," he said, adding that officials were "comfortable with a moderate slowdown". Li also signalled that China was willing to accept some debt defaults as it struggles to clean up its multi-trillion-dollar "shadow banking" sector, saying in some cases defaults are "hardly avoidable". He also said authorities have a grip on financial risks to the economy and played down worries over huge debts run up by local governments which have splurged on infrastructure and other investments.

We see a lot of great photos throughout the week. So, we thought it was high-time we started rounding up some of our faves each week and highlighting one each Friday on our blog to inspire our weekend adventures. We call it the Osprey Round Up.
Do you remember your first backpacking trip? Whether you were 2 years old or 20, I'm betting it had a lasting impression—it definitely did for us. We believe that the more people, especially children, that we can get outside, the more people we will have protecting our remaining wild places. That's why we love seeing families out on the trail. And if they happen to be wearing all Osprey Packs, well that's an added bonus.
Loving this shot from Jason Boblitt on Facebook:

Here's to hitting the trail with your family and friends this weekend. Happy Friday!

Think your core just
means your abs and
lower back? Well,
you'd be partially right.
While your core does
include those two areas,
it's also made up of
your upper back, hips
and glutes.
"It's really the middle part
or trunk of your body," says
Becky Attard, regional group
fitness leader for Life Time
Fitness in Michigan, Ohio and
Indiana. "It's like the pillars
in a home. It's what's holding
your body together."
Because we use our core for
so many daily functions, it's
important to keep it strong,
because that strength transfers
to the entire body. No wonder
core training was named a
2013 emerging trend by the
American College of Sports
Ready to add some core
work to your workout? Here
are some tips:
Don't Just Do Sit-ups "This
is where people tend to go
wrong," says Ken Jackson,
bodybuilder, personal trainer
and owner of Ken Jackson's
Fitness Factory in Shelby
Township. "They do 1,000
sit-ups a day and are still
overweight or their back still
hurts." Working the core means
doing a variety of exercises
that hit the entire area. And, if
you keep your core tight while
exercising the rest of the body,
you also get benefits. "If you sit
up straight during a chest press,
that's a core exercise," Jackson
Variety Is Key
No matter
what you do, change it up,
says Nancy Graybill, personal
trainer and owner of Nancy G
Fitness, run out of Jackson's
Fitness Factory. "If you do the
same thing day after day, not
only do you get bored, but your
body and muscles go on autopilot,"
she says. "You need to
keep it new, fresh and challenge
yourself." Attard recommends
mixing up core classes with
Pilates or yoga, both of which
offer great core workouts. And
if you have an intense workout,
don't forget to give your body
at least 24 hours to recover.
It's Only Part of the Package
Core workouts alone won't
give you that buff bod you've
dreamed of having. "If you
have 25 pounds to lose, [core
workouts] will build core
strength, but at the same time,
you will have a great six-pack
under layers of fat," Attard
says."You've got to work on
nutrition, and you've got to
work on cardio." According to
Jackson, nutrition is 70 percent
of the fitness equation, even if
you work out daily. "Working
out is the easy part. The hard
part is eating right," he says.
"Many people don't see their
full potential because they
ignore the nutritional aspect."

Afternoon Vote on New Medical Marijuana Dispensary Ban Coming Up at Tuesday City Council
Backing the "Marijuana as Menace" mentality of the Planning Department, Planning Commission, and prior City Council votes, city staff recommends voting for a total ban on any new medical marijuana dispensaries, giving Greenway and Limekiln, the existing two clubs a monopoly status. There is no examination of either club's prices, nor of complaints against the club by low-income customers who have been unsatisfied or turned away. Marijuana clubs are treated as some sort of dangerous hot potato, more lethal than alcohol or tobacco outlets or pharmacies—which vend far more lethal wares.
The Rotkin-Coonerty City Council continues its rightward retrenching by agenda-izing Item #17 Medical Marijuana Dispensaries and Personal Medical Marijuana Use Ordinances. (PL) on the sparsely attended afternoon session 3 PM (probably closer to 3:30 PM or thereafter) on 3-9-10. There will be no evening session. Though the law will have a second reading and vote in two weeks, any meaningful discussion (which is unlikely at this point anyway) needs to happen on the First Reading, since the Council is loath to make changes after it votes the initial law.
The City Council's agenda now officially states that 2 minutes is the standard time period for any discussion. However if you are representing an organization, you should contact Mayor Rotkin by phone (420-5020) or e-mail mrotkin [at] ci.santa-cruz.ca.us) and inform him you want 5 minutes.
Under the New Prohibition, only Limekiln and Greenway, the two existing clubs, are allowed to have grow houses. Limekiln and Greenway both ban ingesting, smoking, vaporizing, or eating medication on the PUBLIC property within 50' of their establishment and throughout Harvey West Park. Greenway has the decency to clarify that this is a City Council-demanded condition. No smoking, ingestion, etc. is allowed on the site—a condition applied to no other medication. This is clearly an absurd application of the Reefer Madness stereotype that marijuana is particularly dangerous.
There is also apparently a City Council legal requirement that the clubs not only revoke purchasing privileges for those who dare to avail themselves of the protections of Proposition 215 and medicate publicly when they need to nearby. They also state they "inform state agencies" for further punitive action, as apparently directed by further City Council requirement (the liberal Rotkin strikes again!).
Cellphones, computers and cameras are banned—a condition not required by City Council's absurd prior ordinances. Homeless customers with backpacks carrying their possessions may be significantly disadvantaged or discouraged by a "no backpacks" requirement.
Though the new law specifically bans any new clubs, it makes doubly sure the horse is dead by specifying the entire city is a banned areas for dispensaries—except for two small zones on Delaware and Harvey West, zones apparently expanded to cater to the bigotry and paranoia of some businesses and residents.
No survey has been done of existing need, i.e. how many patients choose to go outside the city to buy their medicine because of the prices, quality, or policies of the existing clubs. Nor is there any indication of why stats showing a significant number of purchasers come from outside the city has any relevance (why isn't this criteria applied to bars, 7-11s, drug stores, and pharmacies to restrict them?).
The staff report, proposed law, club rules, grim city prohibition map, and a few other items are available on line at http://22.214.171.124/sirepub/pubmtgframe.aspx?meetid=166&doctype=AGENDA .

Some radio discussion of the Council's unanimous vote for extending the temporary ban on new distribution centers can be found at http://www.radiolibre.org/brb/brb100207.mp3 . (about 1/3 of the way through the audio file).
Craig Canada has written some penetrating analysis of the broader medical marijuana situation in his periodic columns at http://www.examiner.com/x-14883-Santa-Cruz-County-Drug-Policy-Examiner and his blog http://www.palmspringsbum.org/medical.html . He hasn't written much this year but hopefully will do so.
Homeless activist Becky Johnson has also written on the subject (and reprinted Craig's most recent article) at http://beckyjohnsononewomantalking.blogspot.com/search/label/medical%20marijuana .

As mentioned above, the actual law needs two readings, so this first quick-and-dirty passage will be followed in two weeks by an inevitable second death knell. In theory, massive citizen protest or better still, direct action (perhaps a smoke in?) might have some impact. Use whatever tools you find most congenial to raise the roof about the New Marijuana Prohibition law coming our way.
For those interested in the City's Measure K Commission's twice-a-year joke meeting, I was informed by Tina Shull, the Prohibitionist fox-in-the-chicken house staffer who really runs the meetings, that their equipment broke down and they have no recording of their last January meeting. Commissioner Anita Henry did announce on air that marijuana busts had gone up significantly in the last six months locally, but the police were not providing reports so that Commissioners could determine if marijuana busts were being made the lowest enforcement priority, as required by the voters in 2006.

It's sad that ordinances are being used in such a way that it essentially bans dispensaries throughout entire jurisdictions. I'm not an opponent of zoning, if it is in the best interest of the city and keeps certain parts the way they are (or were). But to void state programs under the disguise of zoning is not very cool. It's like I always say, the authorities and/or law enforcement will take advantage of vague rules and laws any chance they get. With case law, state law, local ordinances, and federal law all in on a different page, the citizens get the shaft. If the state is going to approve a program, the least the legislature can do is make sure it is being run properly. Something needs to be done at the state level, or the authorities and/or law enforcement will continue to take advantage of the situation.

The law doesn't allow NEW medical marijuana dispensaries, and gives a monopoly to the two existing clubs with all the restrictions written into the prior ordinance. The City Council initially passed the moratorium last summer claiming an emergency.

What is so hard about understanding the ban will not work? You understand that the country is saturated with cannabis now? Arguing dispensary or no dispensary means nothing if I can still go to my corner convenience store and get anything I want in short order. What is the point of cannabis prohibition if I can get it almost anywhere, almost anytime, and it's cheaper then the last time? All of this hand wringing over 'the children' and 'diversion of use' is laughed at by 'the children' because they know exactly how easy it is to get now without any dispensaries. BTW, the street dealers are starting to deliver in order to gain a little over the competition. So, yeah, go ahead and ban everything, but realize, it's already everywhere. Gotta love the self-righteous, they're making the criminals stinking rich!

Still at your slanted reporting game eh? Still trying to create a crisis where none exists, and still planting words/deeds/intentions on your opposition that they've not voiced themselves. (Case in point? Your false claims and ridiculous propostions vis a vis the TBSC event last week. I note you've studiously avoided answering the very specific questions that call you on your game on the thread of that topic. Standard for the course with you, but....I digress).
To the point, this article. You say "Homeless customers with backpacks carrying their possessions may be significantly disadvantaged or discouraged by a "no backpacks" requirement."
Reeaaally? So this would be news or unique because...? As far as I know, its not permitted to take a backpack into a bank, a restaurant, most stores, or virtually ANY commercial enterprise. And that holds true for wandering students, international visitors, members of the Sierra Club on their merry trips, etc.
Is it really news, or a plot against the homeless, that they can't bring their backpacks into a medical marijuana dispensary? I'll propose that it's not. It's nothing more than your typical, tired effort to make every issue in the world a plot devised against the homeless.
I do believe that if you really wanted to help get more dispensaries in this town, that your best help would be to stay quiet and disassociate yourself from the topic. Your endorsement appears to be the kiss of death on most issues in this community, as your reputation precedes you.

I hope to be playing some tape on the Council meeting Thursday night 6-8 PM. On another issue, former Homeless Services Center Director Doug Loisel will be calling in at 7 PM to discuss another issue considered this afternoon at City Council--whether to spend money to expend the Winter Armory Shelter until April 15th.
The real issue for poor people is having access to medical marijuana (and recreational marijuana for that matter) available at a reasonable cost. That should be near nothing, if it were really legal and not hedged in by the growing number of local restrictions being cooked up by Prohibitionists.
I received an interesting suggestion from a reader:
"I think you should gather the signatures to put a local ballot initiative on the ballot in the next election that lifts the moratorium in Santa Cruz and requires them to follow an "objective" set of criteria that if followed would force them to approve a limited number of dispensary applications (I would focus on 3 more dispensaries to get around objections, and I can help you with the language if you'd like) in specific areas of town. Getting the signatures should be duck soup as the voters are CLEARLY more progressive than Coonerty and Rotkin. In fact, Coonerty and Rotkin pretend to be more liberal than they are when they are running for office, and that is the ONLY reason they are on the Council."
"Rotkin pretends to be a communist, but has a large home with a large swimming pool in Bonny Doon, and acts just like the rest of the rich folks who have these kinds of homes. And we all know about Coonerty. He plays up his law professor creds and a couple of liberal initiatives when he is running for office, and DOWNPLAYS his downtown association and law enforcement ties and distaste for ordinary folks or those struggling to make ends meet."
I like this person's ideas. Can't vouch for the accuracy of his claims re: Rotkin and Coonerty, but their votes on these issues (and those of everyone except Madrigal--and including him on the final vote) stink.

Talk:Medical technologist
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
I will be working on this page. Trust me, eventually it will be funny. Especially to my fellow Med Tech comrades. This article may actually end up being more truthful and descriptive than the actual wikipedia article.

Awesome job! Depressingly (and laughingly) true on many accounts. I'm wondering though if expansion is needed on relationships between technologists. A complete lack of respect and support for one another, perhaps tied in with the whole no self esteem (ie trash talking you makes me feel better about myself - this is not just limited to techs within a specific department but may also involve one department belittling another). And also info about the technologist who having worked under the tyrannical charge technologist for so long will begin to defend said charge tech's bullying behaviour and even begin to emulate it (thus completing the circle of life).—The preceding unsigned comment was added by DitDatDot (talk • contribs) 07:22, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Baby dolphin, in bottom left hand cornerToday was a day that has challenged me as a photographer, as a writer and as a human being. I am sitting here now, fumbling with my words, trying to find an appropriate way to explain what happened in the Cove today. The fact is, there simply aren't any words to describe the callousness of the actions that took place.
A pod of roughly 20 striped dolphins were driven into the Cove. Perhaps they were the remaining dolphins from the pod that was slaughtered a few days ago. Amongst them was a tiny little baby, the smallest any of us had yet seen. Judging by its size, Nicole estimated it to be less than a month old. Panic was ruling this baby's actions and it was repeatedly jumping completely out of the water. To pretend that I understood the fear it was feeling would be an insult to this precious little creature.
Tears filled my eyes behind my sunglasses and it took everything I had to continue to document and photograph. I knew when I came here that as a photographer, this would be the most challenging subject I've ever taken on. I also knew that as a photographer, my work could potentially make a difference in the lives of these dolphins. Now, as a writer, I am trying to convey to you the feelings I was experiencing as I watched this innocent little child. I fear that I am simply not doing justice to this baby's life, death, nor its memory.
Nicole and Pierre watch the dolphins being driven into the CoveI go back and forth between hating these men for the career they've chosen and reasoning that they are trying to make ends meet in a town with little to no perceived opportunity. Today, I was overcome with contempt for these men. I do not understand how a human being, no matter their occupation, age, gender, race, can take the life of something so small, delicate and innocent. Do these men not have souls? Do they not stop and imagine how they would feel if someone were to brutally murder their child?
As we stood on top of the hill overlooking the killing cove, the sound of dolphins thrashing under the tarps was nearly unbearable. Meanwhile, in the background was the loudspeaker from the dolphin show at the nearby Whale Museum. Happy voices echoed sickeningly through the hills surrounding the Cove while lives were taken.
It was one of the most challenging days for me personally and I could see the torment on the faces of my fellow Cove Guardians. Days like this simply defeat us. Pierre, a new Guardian, joined us yesterday afternoon and experienced a brutal introduction to the Cove. But this is what happens here daily, the innocent are slaughtered viciously and the murderers go home and eat the dolphin meat their wives have cooked up for them.
Here is your opportunity to become a Cove Guardian. To join us in Taiji (voluntarily, and completely at your own cost and risk), write to us at firstname.lastname@example.com. We will get back to you, but please be patient. We cannot keep an eye on the Cove and answer e-mails at the same time. Contributions to Sea Shepherd Conservation Society to keep our official presence here are needed and welcome. These contributions cover the costs for transport, telephone, equipment, supplies, food, and lodging for the official Sea Shepherd representative. We will remain here through the end of March and will return for the next season in September 2011.
Thank you to the citizens of Japan who are weighing these issues and beginning to take a stand to solve them. Thank you to everyone who is on the frontlines of this war. This is a war to save ourselves from ourselves. Without your calling and writing Japanese embassies and your own governments, there will be no change. Keep it up! Every time dolphins are pushed into the Cove, let them have it. Every time there is blood in the water, let them have it. Make good consumer choices. Inform everyone you know about the tragedy here and how it is linked to the captive dolphin trade. All who patronize a dolphin show have blood on their hands.
For the dolphins,
Libby Katsinis
Call or write to help end this slaughter
The Cove Guardians
Nicole, who will be assisting me during the next three months, will share her experiences while in Taiji on her blog.Rupert Imhoff, who is also assisting with this campaign, has started a YouTube channel of video taken during his time in Taiji.Scott's daughter, Elora Malama West, who assisted him, will continue her blog from home.
