In Rome, there's a McDonald's mere steps from the Spanish Steps. It's always busy, but I can't imagine why anyone would choose McDonald's over authentic Italian snack food. Fast-food French fries vs. freshly-fried arancini risotto balls? That's a no-brainer.
"Italians are experts in some of the most creative and satisfying snack foods around," says Mario Batali, a true expert in all things Italian (and all things delicious).
Tonight on Ciao America, Mario's visiting food spots across the country for the best Italian snacks, stateside. In Rhode Island, Saint Louis and New York, Mario finds the panini, the frittatas, the grilled pizzas and spiedini that are ready to eat pronto!
And it's almost as easy to whip up these snacks at home with all the recipes Mario has collected during his snacking travels.
Catch Italian Snack Food tonight on Ciao America at 9pm/8c.

Prize Recipient
Marianna Agudelo
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
My name is Marianna Agudelo. I live in Atlanta, Georgia, although my family is from Colombia. I always wanted to be a scientist, from a very early age; my interest in physics particularly was sparked by my high school teacher's discussion of nuclear and quantum physics. This realm of physics fascinates me especially. It presents so many problems and questions that remain unanswered, which are a wonderful challenge. In the near future, I hope to contribute to—either by clarifying or adding to—the mystery of quantum physics, and would especially like to conduct research in this area.
I spent last summer studying at the MITES program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and this summer I will be interning at the Georgia Tech Research Institute, in the Quantum Information Systems group. In the fall, I will return to MIT as a freshman, where I plan to major in physics and nuclear engineering.

This report describing how the number of schools in Austria providing an Islamic education is increasing day by day carried analyses by Enes Shakfeh, the representative of Muslims in Austria. Shakfeh states that Islam first entered the Austrian school curriculum in 1982-1983, since when there has been a rapid rise in the number of students studying Islam.
"At that time there were just 5 teachers for 200-220 students…Today, however, the number of Muslim teachers has risen to 300, and the number of schools in Austria as a whole in which Islam is taught has risen to 1800. Students from 3000 different schools are coming to those schools in which Islam is taught in order to learn about the faith… MANY AUSTRIAN CHRISTIANS HAVE BECOME MUSLIMS."

A new discussion board experience is coming this September!
After 10 years, we're upgrading our discussion board to a new modern system. The new forum will be easier to use, mobile-friendly and loaded with new features! We'll be taking all of the existing posts and users over to the new board, you won't have to do anything. If you have any questions, we've started a thread here to discuss.
Just had to share this here with you all. Our Julia has been busy!
Thank you Julia and great work!!
Good job posting this Gavin. I had thought of it, but hadn't gotten around to doing anything about it. Our Julia is very busy and very talented.
That is great. Thanks for sharing with us Julia's newest passion.
Wow - they are very good! What a talent Julia.
Wow, Julia is something else. What a talented lady and I know this will be highly successful for her. Miss you Julia!!!
Oh my goodness, I've just seen this!! Thank you, Gavin and my cc family. I've missed you all so much and I lost myself in my iPad drawing, which has been my main therapy since Sue died.
I now feel well enough to come out of my shell and come back to visit my wonderful cc family.
I don't really know how the pet portraits started (although Laura, my cat, insists of taking all the credit) but I seem to have hit a nerve with pet owners. I really hope to be able to raise money for cc and Sue's hospice. If anyone wants a pet portrait and wishes to make their donation to CCF, please do email me and I'll be happy to do one. Unfortunately, I can't set up a JustGiving page for a non-UK charity and I have no other way of tracking donations for the portraits.
I have a student due and I've just realised I've double-booked myself, so I'd better go.
Love to you all and see you soon.
Julia xx
Julia, Julia, it is so good to see your smiling face and to read that you are doing so much better. Time does have a way of moving on or as I always say I had good intentions of contacting someone but life just gets in the way! Stay well and as always we are delighted to hear from you!

Oh, good, Skinny Jonah Hill plays sports now. Wonderful, science. Just wonderful.

They have trust issues which, speaking of, welcome to the exact moment all three of Jennifer Love Hewitt's pre-selected engagement rings fell down a sewer grate. She hasn't eaten in twenty minutes.

The 4 October, 2009, issue of Oman Daily, an Arab-language newspaper published in Oman, carried a report titled "The Atlas Aims to Demolish Darwin's Theory," which discussed Harun Yahya"s activities across the world. As well as such works refuting Darwinism as the Atlas of Creation, the report also mentioned the author's ideal of the Turkish-Islamic Union.
Harun Yahya is the founder (Honorary President) of the Science Research Foundation, a publishing empire that markets more than 60 web sites dedicated to the writings of the author. It also produces documentary films and audio tapes in 15 languages, including Turkish, English, Russian, Ethiopian and Arabic... This includes the 850-page Atlas of Creation. With its carefully amassed details, large numbers of photographs, diagrams and statistics, and scattered quotations from the Qur'an, the Atlas suggests that Darwin was totally mistaken, that all plants and animals were flawlessly created, and that no change by way of natural selection ever took place... (Adnan Oktar) has recently been speaking of a "Turkish-Islamic Union" that will bring peace to the Muslim world under Turkish leadership.2009-12-07 02:48:21

PHILADELPHIA - The Penn women's basketball team already has a date for New Year's and it's with the Miami Hurricanes. The Quakers (5-2) are set to start 2014 in Coral Gables, Fla., and will bring their five-game winning streak to the Bank United Center on Jan. 1 for the program's first all-time meeting with Miami. Game time is set for 2 p.m.
Catching the Game
Fans can watch the game on Canes All Access. Live stats can be found here and live twitter updates (@PennWBB) are also available throughout the contest. A complete recap and box score can then be found at PennAthletics.com shortly after the conclusion of the game.
In the Series vs. Miami
This will mark the first-ever meeting between these two programs. Coach McLaughlin is 0-4 against the Atlantic Coast Conference, while Penn is 0-13 all-time against the ACC. Miami will be Penn's second ACC opponent of the 2013-14 season. Eariler this season, the Quakers fell at home to then-No. 5/6 Notre Dame, 76-64.
Tough Start
Though the Quakers started 0-2, they have faced some tough competition. Entering the New Year, Penn's first two opponents this season are a combined 18-2 (.900). St. Francis Brooklyn is 8-2 and its only two losses came on the road to BCS opponents in St. John's and Miami (Fla.). No. 2 Notre Dame is undefeated through 10 games.
Best Start
Despite that challenging start to the season, the Quakers have now matched the best seven-game start in program history. Currently at 5-2, the Quakers matched the 2011-12 teams for that distinction. Prior to Coach McLaughlin's tenure at Penn, the Red and Blue had never won five of their first seven games, but they have now done so twice in the last three years.
Non-Conference Streak
With its fifth straight win on Dec. 21, Penn is currently riding its longest non-conference winning streak in 13 years. The last time Penn won five straight non-league games was in 2000-01—the program's all-time winningest team (22 wins). That group won its last seven non-conference games and after a loss to a Texas Tech in the NCAA Tournament, the 2001-02 team won its first two games for a nine-game non-conference regular season winning streak.
Decembers to Remember
The Quakers won't be happy to see the calendar change. The holiday season has been kind to the Quakers under head coach Mike McLaughlin. Penn has won seven straight games in December and 10 of the last 12 (and 13 of the last 15). In contrast, the Red and Blue were 1-5 in November over the last two years. Penn's last loss in December was at Drexel on Dec. 21, 2012 (77-50).
Against the ACC
The Quakers will be looking for their first-ever win over an ACC opponent. Overall, the Red and Blue are 0-13 against the powerhouse conference. Penn's most recent ACC opponent, Notre Dame, came into The Palestra on Nov. 23. The Fighting Irish led by just six last in the first half, but led by 12 at the break and won by 22. Prior to that, Virginia came to The Palestra last season and barely survived, 68-65. The Cavaliers overcame a 15-point second-half deficit and Penn missed a game-tying shot at the buzzer.
Sunshine State Stats
- This will mark Penn's first trip to the state of Florida since playing in the 1993 Lady Gator Classic where the Quakers lost to host Florida (80-49) on Dec. 28 and Ohio State (82-63) on Dec. 29.
- Penn is 1-3 all-time in Florida with its only win at Central Florida, 71-63, on Jan. 8, 1982.
- The road trip will also be a Homecoming for senior standout Alyssa Baron, who is a Miami native and attended Gulliver Prep.
Penn Trends
Penn is 4-0 this year when Alyssa Baron leads the team in scoring ... The Quakers have had at least two players score in double figures in every game this year ... Penn has had three different leading rebounders in the last four games ... The Quakers have won 14 straight games when they have outrebound their opponent ... Alyssa Baron has started 94 consecutive games for the Quakers ... Penn is 9-1 under Coach McLaughlin when scoring more than 70 points (only loss in double overtime, 88-84, at Harvard in 2011).
Fourth to 1,400
Senior and Miami, Fla., native Alyssa Baron added seven more points, including the game-winner in Penn's win over Drexel on Dec. 21. Baron also recorded her 500th career rebound in that game. Earlier this year, she became the fourth player in program history to surpass 1,400 career points and now has 1,477.
Magic Number: 60
The statistic that may most indicate a Penn win or loss? 60 points. Since head coach Mike McLaughlin took over at Penn, the Quakers are 31-8 (.795) when they score 60 points, including 3-0 this season. In comparison, the Quakers are just 18-65 (.217) when they've scored less than 60 points under Coach McLaughlin. The trend continues defensively. Over the last four seasons, the Red and Blue are 9-44 (.170) when allowing more than 60 points. But when holding opponents under that number, the Quakers hold a winning record of 40-29 (.579).
Ivy League Player and Rookie of the Week
Freshman Sydney Stipanovich posted her second career double-double and helped lead Penn to its largest comeback in program history in a 46-44 win over Drexel. Her 14 points and 19 rebounds earned her Ivy League Player and Rookie of the Week honors as announced by the league office on Dec. 23. Stipanovich's 19 rebounds were the most by any freshman in the nation this year against a Division I opponent and the most for a Penn player since Jennifer Fleischer grabbed 21 against Columbia on Feb. 17, 2006. Stipanovich is the first Ivy rookie to record 19 rebounds in a single game since Penn's Diana Caramanico tallied 19 against Princeton on Jan. 3, 1998.
Charge for a Cure!
For the fourth straight year the women's basketball team is dedicating its entire season to the fight against several diseases and the team needs your help. In its first three years, 146 donors have joined the "Charge for a Cure" program which helped the team raise nearly $9,000. Each month of the season will be devoted to help a specific disease with personal ties to the program. Fans can pledge a donation per charge and the amount of charges are totaled each month. The money raised will go to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (Nov/Dec), Dut Jok Youth Foundation (Jan.), Autism/Play 4Kay (Feb.) and Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's (March). To join the team in Charge for a Cure, contact Eric Dolan at email@example.com with your pledge or any questions. For more information, click here.
A Penn Win Would...
... be the first in the state of Florida since 1982.
... match the program's best-ever eight-game start at 6-2.
... be the program's first-ever against the ACC.
A Penn Loss Would...
... snap a five-game winning streak and the program's longest non-conference win streak since 2000-01.
... be the first since Nov. 23, 2013—a span of 39 days.
... be less good than a win.
Last Time Out
Senior captain Alyssa Baron capped the largest comeback in program history and gave Penn its fifth straight win with the game-winning jumper with 2.6 seconds left. The Quakers, who trailed 26-7 late in the first half, also claimed bragging rights over Drexel with the 46-44 win in the Battle for 33rd Street at The Palestra. Freshman Sydney Stipanovich, who tied the game with 1:31 to play, finished with her second career double-double and finished with a team-high 14 points and 19 rebounds. Following Stipanovich's game-tying putback, the Penn defense—as it did throughout the matinee matchup—forced a tough shot and Stipanovich pulled down the rebound. When Penn missed a chance to go-ahead on the ensuing possession, that defensive process repeated itself. That gave Penn possession with 14.0 seconds left and Coach McLaughlin put the ball into the hands of the program's No. 4 all-time leading scorer. Baron drove to her right, found space near the baseline and let go a running jumper that found the bottom of the net.
Up Next
When the Quakers return Philadelphia, they will have just two days to prepare for a home game against Norfolk State on Sunday at 2 p.m. Three days later, Penn travels to Morgan State for a 5 p.m. tip off on Jan. 8, and three days after that, the Quakers open Ivy play against Princeton at The Palestra (Jan. 11, 5:30 p.m.).

While running Backtrack 5 on VMware Fusion I was not able to successfully use the my NetGear N600 Wireless Dual Band USB Adapter to make use of some commands like airmon-ng. It seems that the Adapter is not being recognized by Backtrack even if VMware has specifically designated it to it. I know not all wireless adapters will work with Backtrack, but I was wondering if there were any drivers for this adapter or any workarounds.

I apologize if there is a thread that explains this problem already, but I am a newbie to Backtrack and this forum.

Ghana From The Tree Tops
In 1995, with support from USAID, Ghana opened a first-of-its kind attraction for Africa-- a canopy ropewalk at Kakum National Park that offers visitors a bird's eye view of the forest. FrontLines editor Kelly Ramundo travelled to Kakum in May of 2013 to document the nexus between tourism, food security and the country's recent economic transformation.

THE borough's most successful business men and women were honoured at the annual Thurrock Business Awards.
The glitzy ceremony, hosted by the Thurrock Gazette and sponsored by 20 local firms on Friday evening at the Civic Hall, saw awards handed out to the finest businesses and business people in the borough.
Local dignitaries were among almost 400 people who gathered to celebrate the borough's business stars.
Denise Rossiter, chief executive of Essex Chambers of Commerce – the main sponsor – and co-chairman of the awards' judging panel, said: "There is no doubt Thurrock is continuing on the way up. Although some people doubted whether it would ever happen, DP World's London Gateway Terminal is now open for business and receiving ships from across the globe.
"The opportunities for new employment and new businesses the port and associated logistics industries offer are considerable, but we must not forget about all the other high-performing businesses here tonight, all of whom make Thurrock a bright and interesting place to do business in and somewhere to invest."
Charles Meaby, director at DP World – the event's other main sponsor – and co-chairman of the judges, said: "All of our entrants should be very proud of what they have achieved.
"Tonight we can only recognise a small number of them, but everyone had an interesting story to tell, so all of us can be proud to be celebrating business success in Essex."
For a six page special with lots of pictures from the awards on Friday night, see this week's Gazette.

Phantom 50 — By Tim Clark —
April 2002
|In motion or at rest, this coastal cruiser is a deft entertainer.
Especially aboard a large, powerful boat like the Fairline Phantom 50, PMY sea trials can seem like clips from an action movie. The location for the 50's performance was a stretch of the Atlantic off Deerfield Beach, Florida, at midmorning in late January under blue sky and billowing clouds. Above southeasterly seas averaging three feet, two principals sat on the flying bridge: Marina One sales executive Mike Hansen at the centerline helm and sales rep Mark Davies in the navigator's seat to port. Braced against the forward end of the wetbar behind them, your faithful correspondent played director, armed with a Stalker ATS radar gun and an electronic diagnostic tool monitoring fuel flow on the port-side 675-hp Volvo Penta D12 675 diesel below.
Written in outline form, the script read: 1000 rpm, 1250 rpm, and so on, up to WOT. There was little room for improvisation, but Hansen and Davies made an unusually high-spirited duo. When I announced our speed at 2000 rpm–more than 32 mph–Davies pumped a fist in the air and whooped. And before I had finished recording the fuel flow–49.4 gph, for a cruising range of 339 miles–Hansen turned with an eager grin and asked, "Twenty-two-fifty?" By the time we reached WOT (2300 rpm), the high-rise hotel I'd been training the Stalker on was growing taller fast. After scrawling down our top speed of 38.1 mph (which might have been faster on untroubled waters), I called out to Hansen, "That's it!"
Normally at this signal the skipper throttles back to a near idle, and the transformation from hurtling speed to bobbing calm is like the return to reality on a movie set after someone yells, "Cut!" But instead, without backing a millimeter off the Volvo Penta electronic controls, Hansen sliced 30 degrees to port, head-on into the weather, as if to declare, "This is reality, and let's enjoy it."
The 50 raced over the water with force and grace. When the occasional four-footer met the bow, we carved into its top, lifted only moderately, and came down in an even, cushioned motion–a dry, truly hydraulic landing controlled by hull designer Bernard Olesinski's deep-V forward, full-length spray strakes, and 18 degrees of deadrise aft. "Isn't this great?" asked a gleeful Hansen. I had to agree.

Just tested your version of the script and DHCP seems to work fine on my test hardware. I will give the whole script a try and see if its easier to work with than my current one.
I still dont have DHCP working but I did hack this script up a bit as well.. hope you like my modifications
the biggest thing I wanted to add was a --cleanup process so that it no longer messed things up for me while trying to troubleshoot the DHCP issue. I assume my problem is something with my wireless drivers and injection even if it works else where.. dont know yet.

can I ask what wireless card/drivers you use? I have found info along these lines Debian User Forums • View topic - ath5k droping packets that indicate its just my wireless drivers that are causing the failure
Working on a Dell Latitude D420.
Got the following internal interfaces, i use these to connect to the internet:
iwl3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG/BG - Internal Wireless
Tigon3 [partno(BCM5752KFBG) rev 6002] (PCI Express) - Internal Wired LAN
Then I have the following PC-Cards (use these for scanning/injection):
- Netgear WG511T - Atheros chipset
- Generic PCMCIA Wireless card i have had for years, no idea what it is though. DMESG shows the

Update g60jon, and all. I have been trying for a while to get the r8187 driver to work properly when responding to all probes, but it created numerous other problems, in the end I decided the rtl8187 driver should be used. After coming to this thread to edit a few things and grab the script it appears g60jon had done pretty much what I wanted to do to the script (which has been turned in to airssl 2.0). Airssl 2.0 now uses rtl8187 which has added the use of responding to all probes "properly", the tutorial and script have been updated, and I have noted you g60jon.
Sometimes I try to fit a 16-character string into an 8byte space, on purpose.
Hello GuyZ! I am trying to make the script by copying it and paste it in a notepad, but i am getting errors and "command not found"... I am sure that i make mistake into some line, but i cant get it working...
Can someone upload the working script somewhere, so i can download it?
Thanks in advance!

Do not read the Wiki, most your questions will not be answered there !
Do not take a look at the: Forum Rules !
In my Windows machine ( the one i am typing now), i paste the script into a notepad, then rename it to airssl.sh and then copy to my eee pc runing BT4 r2 live .
All i'd like (if possible) is the airssl.sh file to find out what i am doing wrong! ( chmod are done).
The script is in the second post, also without an exact error message no one will be able to help you.

General of the Army (GoA) is was the highest rank in Combat Arms, requiring a staggering minimum of 8,000,000 EXP to achieve.
Now It's is one rank above General and one below Commander in Chief I.
It was once policy that there be only one General of the Army at any given time. However, after numerous players obtained the rank after each other within a short period of time, this was changed to allow multiple Generals of the Army at once.
- All Combat Arms Server Regions (except Combat Arms Russia)
- M16A3 Champion (Permanent)
- MYST-Rank Up (Flag Grade)
- NX Discount Coupon (50% Off) - Discontinued
- Combat Arms Russia
Number One GoA
These are the number one players of their respective servers.
North America
- -TT-DigitaL (with 62.8 million EXP, as of 6/29/15)
- -Cann-WP (with 39.3 million EXP, as of 6/29/15)
- 간지없는아이 (with 21,448,255 EXP, as of 6/29/15)
- cLaNdEs7iNe- (with 45.1 million EXP, as of 6/29/15)
While the rank is said to be "one-of-a-kind," it appears as though Nexon has deviated from their original goal and and will allow multiple Generals of the Army at one time.
When BigJaviX (later known as -0ptophobe, -Tigerb00, and now -Route22-) first surpassed Greatfullded as General of the Army, the Community had already been anticipating his progress by tracking his massive EXP gain over the number of recent months.
However, a good number of players didn't actually think that Nexon would allow him to succeed.
Nonetheless, an even bigger surprise came after BigJaviX finally surpassed Greatfullded in EXP. Even though he had overtaken him in title, the latter still retained the rank of GOA, as well as his iconic M16A3 Champion. At first, it was considered to be a temporary glitch. The community assumed that Nexon hadn't anticipated a GOA so soon, let alone two at one time. So of course, the game would require some fixing to rectify the issue.
However, Nexon didn't address the issue leaving players in the dark whether the glitch was intended or not.
Eventually, it seemed that the glitch really was intended after all, when the Community learned that none of the Generals of the Army had lost their M16 Champion Rifles after losing their rank, that other regional servers of Combat Arms were experiencing this as well, and when a new achievement titled "Notorious GOA" was added into the game. The requirement of the achievement was to reach the rank of General of the Army.
However, when Nexon removed all mention of limited spots for certian ranks (1 GoA, 3 Generals, et cetera), in addition to the "Notorious GoA" medal, it became apparent that the policy had been abolished and that now there could be any number of any rank at any time.
- Greatfullded was the first General of the Army.
- BurHunter1- - The first player in Europe to reach this rank. He is currently ranked as 230th.
- There is an achievement medal for those who become the General of the Army, entitled, "Notorious GoA"
- There are now 500+ Generals of the Army in Combat Arms: North America.
- The General Of the Army rank insignia, in real life, does not have the star in the middle. The stars are put in a circular pattern forming a pentagon, not a criss-cross one.
- Once achieving the rank of GoA, players can still gain EXP and will seemingly have another rank to get to. However, once a player achieves the necessary amount for GoA, they simply keep gaining EXP past the threshold, i.e. 1,900,000/1,400,000, which will show as 141%.
- A player Tsor is a dishonorably discharged player with the rank GoA and over 1.4 billion EXP and absurd statistics, such as a KDR of NEGATIVE 43.59. It is unknown whether he used a memory editor to do this, or if it was a simple mistake Nexon made.
- In 07/13/2016 Nexon decides up to add five new ranks [1].
- In 07/19/2016 Nexon releases the new ranks and the new rewards [2].

Cocoa supports healthy intestinal balance
Provided by Healthnotes, Inc.
By Jane Hart, MD
Many of us look for healthy excuses to enjoy chocolate, and now a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reports that chocolate's main ingredient — flavanol-rich cocoa — may benefit health by improving the balance of healthy bacteria that live in the intestines.
Healthy chocolate and healthy bugs?
When the healthy "bugs" (bacteria) that naturally live in our intestines are out of balance, we are at increased risk for illness and chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes and obesity. Types of bacteria that support health include bifidobacteria and lactobacilli strains, which may help with immune system support and prevent the growth of bad bugs in the gut, and help synthesize certain vitamins that support the body's functions.
In this study, 22 healthy participants were randomly assigned to consume a high-cocoa flavanol (494 mg cocoa flavanols per day) or a low-cocoa flavanol (23 mg cocoa flavanols per day) drink, daily for four weeks. Researchers measured the number of certain types of bacteria from the participants' intestines before and after the intervention and measured blood markers associated with chronic disease.
Fabulous flavonals promote beneficial bacteria
People who drank the high-cocoa flavanol drink had increased numbers of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in their intestines compared with the people who drank the low-cocoa flavanol drink.
Compared with people who drank the low-cocoa flavanol drink, people who drank the high-cocoa flavanol drink also had decreased numbers of a bacterial strain (clostridia) associated with chronic diseases such as colon cancer and inflammatory bowel disease.
Markers of health in the body (biomarkers), such as plasma triglyceride and C-reactive protein levels, also decreased significantly in the high-flavanol group compared with the low-flavanol group. This is an important finding because lower levels of both of these markers are important for preventing chronic disease.
The authors of the study comment, "Epidemiologic data has long supported that plant-based diets are strongly associated with improved gastrointestinal health. Although further research is required, the results of the current study suggest that the phytonutrient components of plants [such as cocoa] may be important contributors to these benefits."
More facts about flavanols
- Flavanol benefits. Flavanols are natural plant compounds that are important to a healthy diet. Prior research suggests that flavanol-rich foods including cocoa and chocolate, apples and red wine in moderation, may improve health. Specifically, studies have shown that flavanol-rich foods may help boost the immune system and reduce the risk of clotting, and improve cholesterol levels, vascular health and insulin sensitivity.
- Choose your cocoa wisely. Remember that not all cocoa is healthful. Some cocoa on the grocery store shelves is loaded with additives. Read food labels and choose items with the highest amount of nutrients and the least amount of sugar, fat and other additives.
- Eat a balanced diet. We cannot live on cocoa or red wine alone! It's important that they are part of a balanced diet full of fruits and veggies and whole grains.

A probiotic for a common digestive problem
Provided by Aisle 7
By Maureen Williams, ND
When a person has a cluster of digestive symptoms with no apparent cause, they are often given the diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS. So far, consistently effective treatments for IBS have proven as elusive as its cause, but probiotics have shown some promise as a therapy. In a new study, the probiotic Saccharomyces boulardii improved quality of life for people with IBS.
The study, published in the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, included 67 adults with IBS. The participants either had IBS with a predominance of diarrhea or a mix of IBS symptoms, rather than the type that has constipation as its predominant symptom. They were assigned to take either S. boulardii (200 billion cells per day) or placebo for four weeks. They kept a daily symptom record, and a quality of life assessment was done at the beginning and end of the study.
"Friendly bug" increases general well-being
People in the probiotic group improved in all measures of quality of life:
- Depressed mood
- Interference with activity
- Body image
- Health worry
- Food avoidance
- Social reaction
- Sexuality
- Relationships
In the placebo group, only depressed mood and health worry improved. Individual IBS symptoms, such as abdominal pain and discomfort, bloating and gas, stool urgency, and hard or watery stools, did not change significantly in either group.
A yeast that treats infections
Unlike the most commonly used probiotics, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacter species, S. boulardii is a yeast, not a bacterium. Because it thrives in the large intestine, it can grow and displace disease-causing microorganisms, and may also prevent their growth in other ways. S. boulardii has been found to improve antibiotic-associated diarrhea, traveler's diarrhea, and other types of acute infectious diarrhea and inflammatory bowel disease. These results add to the evidence that S. boulardii may also be helpful to IBS sufferers.
The study's authors explained that the nature of IBS is complex and likely due to a variety of contributing causes. In the face of this complexity, the overall improvement in well-being seen in people taking S. boulardii was especially meaningful, even though the probiotic was not better than placebo in treating specific symptoms.
Taking the broad approach to IBS
People with IBS often find that a combination of therapies is more helpful than any single one. In addition to taking a probiotic, IBS-sufferers can safely try the following approaches to see what works best for them:
- Identify food intolerances and sensitivities. Many people with IBS feel better when they avoid certain foods. A two-week elimination diet followed by individual food re-introductions might help you find out what foods aggravate your symptoms.
- Take soluble fiber. Although fruits, vegetables, whole grain and legumes sometimes increase gas and bloating, soluble fiber from sources such as psyllium husk and acacia are usually helpful.
- Relax. Stress is a major trigger of IBS symptoms. Psychotherapy and hypnotherapy for stress reduction have both shown promise in relieving IBS symptoms.

7 common myths about digestive health
Provided by Healthgrades
Did you know? 7 digestive health myths
How well do you know what goes on down below? Debunking digestive health myths means you'll have a better chance at detecting tummy trouble when it occurs. That way you can discuss your symptoms with your doctor. Here's how to separate digestive health facts from fiction.
Myth No. 1: Spicy foods and stress cause ulcers
A peptic ulcer — a sore in the lining of your stomach — is most often caused by a common bacterium called H. pylori. You can contract the infection through contaminated food or water or via mouth-to-mouth contact — such as by kissing someone who has it. Spicy foods and stress don't cause ulcers, but they can worsen symptoms.
Myth No. 2: Drinking milk cures ulcers
People used to believe that drinking milk healed peptic ulcers. Since peptic ulcers are often due to the H. pylori infection, only antibiotics can kill the symptom-causing germ. Drinking milk may temporarily relieve pain, but it can also increase stomach acid and make symptoms worse in the long run.
Myth No. 3: Eating nuts leads to diverticulitis
Diverticulitis occurs when small pouches that bulge out from the colon — called diverticula — become inflamed. Doctors used to believe that nuts, popcorn and small seeds could block or irritate diverticula. However, there's no scientific information to support this. What works? Eating a high-fiber diet to prevent constipation, which can cause diverticula.
Myth No. 4: Heartburn is nothing to worry about
See your doctor if you experience heartburn twice a week or more. You could have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Untreated, GERD can cause serious complications over time such as bleeding or ulcers in the esophagus. It can also lead to a condition called Barrett's esophagus, which can increase your risk of esophageal cancer.
Myth No. 5: People with lactose intolerance can't eat dairy
If you have lactose intolerance, you have a deficiency of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down lactose — a sugar in milk products. So you may experience stomach symptoms when you eat those foods. However, most people with lactose intolerance can handle some amount of lactose. Over-the-counter lactase replacement products help many people enjoy dairy. Ask your doctor about adding certain dairy products — a good source of calcium — back into your diet.
Myth No. 6: More fiber is always better
Dietary fiber is healthy and can ease symptoms of digestive conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Aim to consume 20 to 35 grams of fiber per day. But don't bulk up your diet all at once; fiber can cause gas. Gradually increase your intake by 2 to 3 grams per day until you hit your target.
Myth No. 7: Gluten allergies are common
Celiac disease is an intolerance to gluten, a protein in wheat, rye and barley. One look at all the gluten-free foods at the grocery store can have you thinking celiac disease is extremely common. However, less than 1 percent of Americans have the condition, according to a recent study.
8 tasty sources of fiber
Provided by Healthgrades
Fill up — and stay healthy — with fiber
Dietary fiber does a lot of good things. It helps you feel full, keeps you regular, and may help prevent heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Sure, bran cereal is loaded with it, but you might be surprised to see what other foods can help provide your daily dose.
1. Navy beans
Beans are exceptionally rich in fiber, and navy beans, with 19 grams of fiber per cup, top the list of healthy legumes. Men need 38 grams of fiber a day. A bowl of hearty navy bean soup will go a long way toward getting you there.
2. Raspberries
Start your morning with a cup of sweet, flavorful raspberries. They're small in size but big in fiber; 1 cup provides 8 grams. Women should aim for 25 grams of fiber a day.
3. Artichokes
The average daily fiber intake of adults in the U.S. is only 15 grams, far short of the recommended amount. To get more, look to the artichoke. One medium artichoke or 3/4 cup of artichoke hearts provides 10 grams of fiber.
4. Pears
Pears, along with apples, dates, oranges and some other fruits, are high in soluble fiber. This type of fiber helps lower cholesterol by preventing its absorption by the digestive tract. A medium pear has about 5 grams of fiber. Remember, enjoy pears and apples unpeeled because the skin and underlying pectin are a major fiber source.
5. Almonds
Among tree nuts, almonds are the richest in fiber, making them a good snack choice. A 1-oz. portion (about 24 nuts) contains a respectable 3.5 grams of fiber.
6. Sweet potatoes
Flavorful sweet potatoes are worth eating all year round, not just at Thanksgiving. A baked sweet potato boasts nearly 5 grams of fiber.
7. Oats
Oatmeal and oat bran contain a soluble fiber called beta-glucan, which has been shown to lower cholesterol and risk for heart disease. A bowlful of oatmeal — 1 cup — nets you 4 grams of fiber.
8. Whole wheat pasta
Its hearty flavor and firm "bite" aren't for everyone, but with more than 6 grams of fiber in a 1-cup serving, whole wheat pasta is a great way to boost your fiber intake. And compared to white pasta's mere 2.5 grams per cup, it's really no contest.
Should you be taking probiotics?
Provided by Healthgrades
It might never have crossed your mind to take probiotics, those friendly microorganisms that are supposed to maintain order in your gut. Or perhaps you're a loyal fan and regular consumer of probiotic-enriched yogurt.
Regardless of your current habits or preferences, the question is do you need to be taking probiotics?
You may want to consider taking probiotics if:
You're taking antibiotics
If you've ever experienced diarrhea while taking a course of antibiotics, you've experienced an unpleasant side effect that affects 25% to 30% of people who receive antibiotics. However, it's a side effect that probiotics might just be able to prevent. Antibiotics can alter or eradicate much of the beneficial flora that populates your gastrointestinal tract, causing cramps and diarrhea. But research supports the benefits of taking probiotics to ward off the diarrhea when taking antibiotics, according to a 2012 study published in JAMA.
You suffer from eczema
Atopic dermatitis, or eczema, is a condition known for making your skin red, scaly and itchy. Anyone can develop it, although children seem to be more prone to doing so. Doctors typically advise people with eczema to avoid irritants and skin products with harsh chemicals, but there's also some evidence to suggest that consuming probiotics might help, too.
You suffer from acute infectious diarrhea
When a terrible stomach bug rampages through your household, it may be time to stock up on some probiotics. Studies show that certain types of probiotics — usually Lactobacillus GC and Saccharomyces boulardii — can decrease the severity of the situation. That is, you may experience fewer episodes of diarrhea while it runs its course. It might even shorten the overall amount of time you're affected by the diarrhea.
You have developed a vaginal infection
Just as the intestines harbor healthy bacteria, the vagina does, too. Some studies suggest that L. acidophilus can help cases of bacterial vaginosis, an infection that develops when the normal balance of "good" bacteria and "bad" bacteria is disturbed. More research is needed to determine whether this probiotic can effectively prevent or treat vaginal yeast infections.
Probiotics may not be right for everyone
But there's always an exception to the rule. There are some people who may not benefit from consuming probiotics. For example, doctors do not recommend giving probiotics to premature infants. And often, experts suggest that certain people, including the elderly, consume their probiotics in foods, rather than taking a probiotic supplement.
Other reasons that you may want to avoid consuming probiotics:
You have underlying health issues
While research suggests that probiotics are generally safe, experts caution that there's not a lot of long-term data on the safety of probiotics — and they suggest that you consider steering clear unless your healthcare provider gives you the green light. There are some minor risk factors for probiotic-associated infection, such as having a central venous catheter or a prosthesis, that might make your doctor want you to be more cautious.
You are immunocompromised or immunosuppressed in some way
If you have human immunodeficiency virus or inflammatory bowel disease, if you're being treated for cancer, or perhaps you have undergone organ transplantation, you may want to consult your doctor before loading up on the probiotic-rich yogurt or trying a supplement. These conditions are more likely to put you at risk for probiotic-associated infections.
The truth about dairy sensitivity
Provided by Healthgrades
In a world where 75% of the population is lactose intolerant, dealing with dairy can be downright confusing. It's a great source of calcium and helps promote good bone health, but many experts say dairy products are harmful and should be avoided. Plus, everyone digests dairy differently. How do you know if the way your digestive tract handles dairy is normal or not? Let's explore what dairy sensitivity really means.
Milk allergy or dairy sensitivity?
Sometimes it can be difficult to know if you're allergic to dairy or just have a sensitivity or intolerance. True food allergies cause a reaction in your immune system that affects a variety of organs in your body. If you have a milk allergy, you will experience mild symptoms like a rash, hives, itching or swelling, or severe symptoms like difficulty breathing and loss of consciousness. Food allergies can be potentially fatal, so if you have a milk allergy you need to avoid dairy completely.
A dairy sensitivity, also known as lactose intolerance, involves your digestive system instead of your immune system. Symptoms can still range from mild to severe, but usually include nausea, cramps, bloating and gas. Lactose intolerance can be extremely uncomfortable, but it's not life threatening.
Lactose intolerance means your body doesn't have enough of the enzyme lactase to break down the sugar in dairy called lactose. Many people believe that when we reach around age 2 and stop being breastfed, our bodies quit producing lactase, which can lead to a dairy sensitivity as adults.
How to find out for sure
If you're still not convinced that your tummy troubles are caused by dairy sensitivity, you can see your doctor for a hydrogen breath test. With this test, patients drink 25 grams of lactose and their breath is measured over a few hours. If lactose isn't processed, then it will pass into the colon and ferment, causing the hydrogen level of your breath to rise. High hydrogen means you're lactose intolerant.
A simple, but slower, way to find out is to stop eating lactose-containing foods and see if your symptoms go away. Keeping a food diary is helpful so if you do eat dairy, you can record how it makes you feel. Then you can pinpoint and cut out the foods that upset your stomach the most.
So you're sensitive, now what?
Not every stomach is the same, and it may take some time to figure out what amount of dairy your sensitive system can tolerate. Here are some tips to keep lactose intolerance in check.
- Avoid dairy products that are high in lactose: milk, cream cheese, ice cream, sour cream, cottage cheese and soft cheeses.
- Yogurt contains bacteria that breaks down lactose, so some yogurts might feel okay to your stomach.
- Try eating dairy with other foods. But be careful not to overload on dairy by combining dairy with foods that were made with milk, like cookies or pancakes.
- Hard cheeses have less lactose so stick with classics like mozzarella, Parmesan, asiago and manchego.
- See if lactose-free dairy products like Lactaid can satisfy your milk tooth without upsetting your stomach.
- Try different portions. People with dairy sensitivity can often tolerate small amounts of dairy, but you'll need to experiment to see how much is too much.
- Make sure you get enough calcium and vitamin D. If you're limiting dairy, you can get these nutrients from broccoli, oranges, pinto beans, spinach, eggs, liver and other fresh foods. You may also want to add supplements to your diet.
- If you can't quit dairy, use over-the-counter lactase enzyme tablets or drops to help you digest it better.
Look out for hidden dairy
Skipping out on milk, yogurt, cheese and other dairy products will surely soothe your dairy sensitivity. But beware of processed foods that may contain milk and lactose. Here are some common culprits:
- Breakfast cereals
- Soups
- Baby foods
- Processed meats
- Sauces and gravies
- Salad dressings
- Baked goods
- Puddings and custards
- Chocolate and candy
- Fried foods
- Potato chips
Still struggling?
When you stop eating dairy you may initially feel worse and have a "dairy hangover" for your first dairy-free week. Stick with your elimination diet for another week or two to see real results. If you still have a hard time diagnosing your digestive problem or managing your dairy and vitamin intake, talk with your doctor or a dietician who can help you create a balanced diet that will feel good to your dairy sensitive body.
Herbal help for chronic digestive disorder
Peppermint can help relieve irritable bowel syndrome
By Maureen Williams, ND
Chronic digestive problems are often a sign of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), but sometimes other undiagnosed conditions are the real cause. Research suggests that people with an accurate diagnosis of IBS could benefit from taking peppermint oil.
Is it IBS?
IBS is a common digestive disorder marked by abdominal bloating and discomfort, gas and loose stools or constipation, or episodes of each. Its cause remains unknown, but stress appears to be an important contributing factor.
The typical treatment recommendation is a fiber supplement, but sometimes other medications such as antispasmodics and antidepressants are prescribed. Some people benefit from these therapies, but many people with IBS continue to suffer chronic digestive discomfort.
Because symptoms of other digestive problems are so similar, the IBS diagnosis is overused. Studies have found that anywhere from 5% to 50% of people diagnosed with IBS actually have another condition that could be responsible for the same symptoms. Lactose intolerance (the inability to digest the sugar found in dairy foods), small bowel bacterial overgrowth and celiac disease (an immune reaction to gluten) have all been identified in people diagnosed with IBS. Unlike IBS, there is a clear treatment path for each of these conditions.
The power of peppermint
The latest study included only people with IBS in whom other conditions had clearly been ruled out. The participants took either 450 mg of peppermint oil prepared in enteric-coated capsules (designed to dissolve in the intestine rather than the stomach) or placebo, two times per day for four weeks. At the end of the trial, 75% of the people in the peppermint group reported a 50% or greater reduction in IBS symptoms, and four weeks after finishing treatment almost half of them were still feeling better. By contrast, only 38% of those in the placebo group reported a similar reduction in symptoms at the end of the trial.
The volatile oils that give peppermint its distinctive aroma have antispasmodic and antibacterial properties that could account for some of its benefits in people with IBS. It has been used historically to treat colic, indigestion and gas. Peppermint can aggravate heartburn, but for most people the enteric-coated form is safe in this regard.
"This study shows that patients with IBS may benefit from a four-week treatment with enteric-coated peppermint oil," the researchers concluded. "The improvement in symptoms lasts longer than the therapeutic period in almost half of the treated patients."

Which type of protein absorbs the fastest and is the easiest to digest?
Provided by Healthnotes, Inc.
By Suzanne Dixon, MPH, MS, RD
Protein digestibility depends upon a number of factors, including the makeup of the protein itself, whether it's taken as a liquid or solid, and whether it's eaten with or without carbohydrates, fat or other foods. Another consideration is the amount of protein eaten at one time. The body best absorbs protein in amounts ranging from 15 to 30 grams in a single meal or snack. Unless you're a serious body-builder, there's no benefit to eating more than 30 grams of protein at once. Be sure to spread your protein out evenly throughout the day, which will enhance digestion and absorption. Regarding the type of protein, the following pointers can help you pick the best protein source to meet your specific health and fitness goals.
Whey protein is quick to digest and provides all of the amino acids, the building blocks of protein, including essential amino acids that the body can't make itself. Whey protein makes its way into muscles most efficiently when taken immediately after a workout, ideally within 30 minutes, and when taken with carbohydrates. For fastest protein absorption, aim for a ratio of 1 gram of protein for every 2 to 4 grams of carbohydrates.
Casein protein is much slower to digest than whey, and leads to a lower but more sustained increase in blood levels of amino acids. While it might seem that slow-digesting proteins are inferior to those that get into the body more quickly, this isn't necessarily true. For example, taking casein at night can help sustain amino acid levels through the long fast that occurs during sleep. A type of casein found in protein powders, called micellar casein, is one of the slowest-digesting proteins available.
Egg protein has a very high protein efficiency ratio (PER), which is one measure of how well our bodies can use any particular form of protein. Another reason people like it is the "Goldilocks factor" — it's not absorbed as fast as whey, but is absorbed faster than casein. Egg contains all amino acids, including essential amino acids.
Soy protein is a high-quality plant protein and provides all essential amino acids. It's prized by fitness enthusiasts because of its purported ability to boost nitric oxide levels in the body, which may improve blood flow. Although some men worry about soy's effects on testosterone and estrogen, the latest research solidly supports that soy does not increase estrogen levels or decrease testosterone levels in men. Soy protein isolate is faster and easier to digest, while soy concentrates contain some carbohydrates, which slow absorption into the body.
Rice protein is less likely than other proteins to create allergic reactions. While rice protein does not supply all essential amino acids, it does have one advantage: It contains a high proportion of arginine, an amino acid that can dilate blood vessels. This may, in turn, enhance blood flow to muscles.
Casein, egg and soy are common allergens, so read labels carefully to make sure you are not purchasing a product that may trigger your food allergies.

On April 14, 2014, the terrorist organization Boko Haram kidnapped more than 200 schoolgirls from the town of Chibok, Nigeria. Around the world, the crime became epitomized by the slogan #BringBackOurGirls -- but in Nigeria, government officials called the crime a hoax, confusing and delaying efforts to rescue the girls. In this powerful talk, journalist Stephanie Busari points to the Chibok tragedy to explain the deadly danger of fake news and what we can do to stop it.

Online Learning in the 30 Community Colleges of the State University of New York: Differences in Outcomes between Classroom and Online Coursework
This study extends prior work on questions related to the academic performance of community college students enrolled in online coursework. Using data from the entire community college system of the State University of New York the study employs structural equation modeling to compare course and program level outcomes. Specifically, we compared GPA and degree attainment for classroom-only students and students with online coursework. Results indicate that online students had lower GPAs but were significantly more likely to attain a credential than classroom-only students. Thi

The shift towards open access is an opportunity to reform academic publishing to better serve the public interest.
Teachers have long known that not every student is perfectly suited to traditional classroom setups, but with budgets tight, doling out individual attention is not always a reality. What if there was a way to make the traditional classroom setting work better for everyone though?
Research has found that classroom seating arrangements have a great impact on student performance and behavior. A study done by Angela Hammang at Montana State University found that when carefully crafted seating charts were in effect, teachers were twice as successful reaching students and that the attainment of lower ability students was doubled. In her research, Hammang experimented by moving students around in different seating charts to help them find their optimal place, in this case it was a biology classroom, based on learning styles and personalities. She also looked at groupings by gender and past grade performances. In all cases, the students performed at a higher level when the teacher assigned seating in a calculated manner. Students on the underachieving end of the spectrum showed the most improvement when classroom seating was developed with thought, and not simply assigned based on the alphabet or another random manner.
It's clear that finding the right classroom seating assignment benefits students and educators, but how can it be accomplished without asking too much of the teacher's time? How can the guesswork be removed?
