For years, I think proud of myself that I take a very natural approach to the wellness of me and my family. However, I have recently ventured into the aromatherapy market and found out, much to my horror that I was wrong. One of the main reasons for "no nos" was air freshener. Let us not even with all the petrochemicals and other chemicals that are in other products such as lotion, shampoo, conditioners, household cleaners, detergents, and start well you get thePicture.
However, I thought that air fresheners were not too bad, were they? Oh, I was so wrong! I read an article that recently reached by Lesley Grimwood, a registered aromatherapist and member of the Aromatherapy and Allied Practitioners Association. As I read further believe that aromatherapy is not just something taken lightly and sniffed at! I recommend that you find her article and read it thoroughly. (Air fresheners - not to be sniffed).
Unfortunately, now is the word "aromatherapy"is so loosely in our sales and marketing, that "real" Aromatherapy can be applied have emerged over her nose, because the use of quality essential oils cost more. In fact, if you notice the word aromatherapy is that so many things, including, yes, used air fresheners.
What I found was from Article Lesley Grimwood, that these so-called air fresheners smell really just "disguise" of chemicals that cause some diseases in us. Since their readingArticle I really went to work proactively and decided that we would rid our home of all those chemical laden products. We did this in our gardens, laundry products, cleaning, and now care. Each of chemicals that penetrate into these products, especially all the petrochemicals industry, in our bodies and not leave them, if we manage to do a thorough detoxification! Our poor animals suffer even more because the chemicals we use on our soil in their bodies through theirFeet!
Here is what mentioned in the Bristol University study, more than 14,000 pregnant women in Leslie Grimwood Article: Those who used air fresheners daily 25 percent more headaches than those who used it suffered only found once a week. In addition, reported an increase of 19% in post-natal depression, and the baby also suffered. Those under 6 months, which day by day with the air fresheners suffered 30% more ear infections and 20 percent were more likely to sufferDiarrhea.
Other results, such as found how to make this air freshener that our homes smell better, and in the advertising gives us the impression that we will feel better, you can actually almost the opposite. The results showed that there was increased anxiety, tension, headaches, depression, insomnia, diarrhea, etc. This is to make us feel better?
Well, I have a better alternative to this horrible air fresheners found - essential oils with a cold air spreadsDiffuser or mixed with spring water in an amber glass spray bottle. The incredible thing is that when essential oils into the air, they make not only the popular ones appear fresher air is the air fresher. Different, different things to do, but they affect all facets of your body in a positive, healing way. The oils can, if distributed in every cell of your body within seconds.
The essential oils have adaptagenic qualities, so they go to where they are needed in thoseBody. An essential oil is the life force of the plant similar to our blood and immune system so that they adapt very well in our body. They hurt our bodies like the chemicals do in these air fresheners. Rather, they are helping our body while cleaning the air. Yes, I say CLEANING. The air is really fresh after a distribution of your favorite essential oils into the air.
Essential oils with oxygen and detoxifies the blood in our body simultaneously. They create an environment in which pathogenic organisms can not live! By getting all the chemicals that we are in our body through all the products we have in our homes, our gardens, in the air, in our food, our bodies are degenerating because they can not get rid of these toxins without help. This can lead to disease.
However, when we inhale the essential oils, either through a diffuser or directly or through their application to our bodies (I even have some oral play, I like my husband and our> Dog) the oils, the blood-brain barrier and clean out the petrochemicals! They are the only known substances which are able to do so! And you thought they smelled good!
So the next time you want to brush up things in your home, try an essential oil, and that instead of clean air!
DISCLAIMER: The only oils we use and which are refer to in all our products, Young Living Essential Oils. We do NOT use and omit all others, what we do, on the use of essential oils in ourArticles on other brands.

The saw you have is made by Poulan, and those lines give lots of folks headaches. Here's the way they go:
I hope this makes sense. If not, please let me know.
Craftsman is a brand sold by Sears. The 358 in the front indicates it was made by Poulan. I've seen them coming off the assembly line on several occasions. Sears is a retailer, not a manufacturer; they don't build anything. All Sears units were made private label by major manufacturers in various sectors. Just as an FYI, here's a list of who makes Sears units by vendor number - the three numbers before the period in the model. If you scroll down to 358, you'll see it listed as Baird/Poulan. The Baird portion went away long ago. Poulan is now actually owned by Husqvarna as of two years ago.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 19/11/2013 (1369 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Lise Timmerman walked between 10,000 and 12,000 steps on Tuesday without leaving her desk.
She is a registered dietitian with the provincial Dial-A-Dietitian program at Winnipeg's Misericordia Health Centre (MHC) and one of 22 MHC office workers participating in a three-month research project headed up by University of Manitoba researcher Danielle Bouchard.
'It feels a bit awkward to be taking phone calls... and returning emails (while walking on a treadmill)'-- registered dietician Lise Timmerman
Bouchard and her team from the Faculty of kinesiology and recreation management are looking into ways of keeping office workers healthier. And one of the options they're examining is having workers spend up to two hours a day performing routine office tasks while walking on a treadmill instead of sitting at their desk.
Their three-month MHC project began in mid-August, with the 22 participants sharing four treadmills purchased by the MHC. During that time Bouchard has been monitoring their usage patterns, blood pressure, heart rate, diet, sleep patterns, job satisfaction and productivity.
"The first few days took a bit of getting used to," Timmerman admitted. "It feels a bit awkward to be taking phone calls... and returning emails (while walking on a treadmill). But I'd say that within two or three days it becomes second nature."
They've had to work in their treadmill time around other activities, such as attending meetings. So some days they're able to spend two hours straight walking on the treadmill, and other days they've had to break it up into smaller segments.
She and Bouchard emphasized it's not a fast walk -- only about 1.2 miles per hour. So they're not burning a lot of calories -- maybe 100 over the two-hour period.
"But the goal is not to increase their fitness level," Bouchard said. "The goal is to just not be sitting down as much."
She said studies have found sitting for more than six hours per day increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and Type 2 diabetes. So reducing the amount of sitting time should improve employee health and job satisfaction, and maintain or increase productivity.
Timmerman said the biggest change she's noticed is she has more energy and improved flexibility. Although her involvement in the project ends in a few days, she said the MHC is keeping the treadmills and she intends to continue using them.
"We're always exploring new ways to keep our employees healthy," MHC president and CEO Rosie Jacuzzi said, "and that's why we're so excited to participate in Dr. Bouchard's study."
Bouchard said she expects to release the results of their study in March or April of next year.

Housing markets are not merely stumbling. Data released on Tuesday showed that within the 20 US cities measured by Standard & Poor's Case-Shiller indices, the pace of decline is accelerating in the third year of the housing market's slump. From the September 2006 peak, prices are down 31 per cent on average. Before Lehman Brothers collapsed in September, prices were falling by just over 1 per cent each month. In March, the rate hit 2.2 per cent.
Based on the experience of housing market reversals elsewhere, the US has further to go. Analysing 15 developed countries that have experienced housing slumps between 1973 and 2007, Goldman Sachs found that they lasted six years on average. The typical real fall in prices was 31 per cent. Japan's slump since 1991 is the longest, while the Netherlands and Finland saw the deepest, with prices halving.
The US ultimately may not be the worst hit. Ireland's market is off nearly a fifth from its 2007 peak, while the UK, which only topped out last year, has already lost 15 per cent. The experience is far from uniform across America. Dallas, Texas and Charlotte, North Carolina, are down only a tenth thanks to moderate inflation during the boom. Detroit, on the other hand, did not share in the good times but is now suffering with its car making industry: prices are back to 1995 levels. Meanwhile, Minneapolis has just taken the record for the fastest annual decline, with prices down 23 per cent in March.
Yet the US housing market remains the most important. On a day when consumer confidence showed improvement to levels typical in the depths of previous recessions, consider the $380bn of wealth lost in March due to the fall in house values. Were that rate to continue for the rest of the year, notes Real Time Economics, the total loss in 2009 would be about equal to the economic output of China. Plummeting house prices do not suggest a rapid recovery.

Candidates in state and country races will discuss the issues at 6 tonight in a forum at the Covington Branch Library on Floyd Street.
Tuesday's candidate forum, hosted by The News and Covington/Newton County Chamber of Commerce, will seek to shed light on the District 110 state representative race, which has run under the radar this year in Newton County.
Although the District 95 state representative race often gets more publicity, District 110 actually covers a larger portion of Newton County, including its southwestern chunk. District 110 also covers portions of Henry and Butts counties.
Democrat Rudy Cox, a McDonough educator, and Republican Andy Welch, a lawyer from McDonough, and will face in the Nov. 2 General Election.
Rudy Cox
Cox did not answer numerous phone calls, has no official website this race and has not attended previous forums according to various news stories. As of Friday, he had not responded to his invitation to Wednesday's forum.
Vote-ga.org has some basic information about Cox from his 2008 bid for State Senate 17. According to the site, Cox had been an educator in Georgia for 31 years in the public school system and in higher education. He is attributed as saying he had spent the previous 10 years in the Coweta County School System and worked for several other systems and colleges.
He also said he had a doctorate of education in administration and policy studies from Clark Atlanta University, a master's of education in student personnel services from Tuskegee University and a bachelor's degree in business management from Tuskegee.
He listed an e-mail, email@example.com, phone number, (678) 977-6930 and mailing address of P.O. Box 442, McDonough.
Andy Welch
Welch is a local government attorney and partner in the Smith, Welch and Brittain law firm. He has a bachelor's degree in biology and a law degree from Vermont Law School.
He said Saturday he's running for office because he's concerned about the expansion of government and the exorbitant amount of debt being racked up. He wants to be an advocate for states' rights and help Georgia reassert itself in making policy and taxation decisions.
As a law partner, Welch said he is a small business owner and wants to create a more business-friendly environment by reducing regulation and implementing a fair tax, which would eliminate income tax and replace that state revenue with increased sales tax.
"If we can make Georgia a better place to do business, then I'll feel like I've accomplished something in representing the 110th district," Welch said.
Welch said he also will make road and intersection improvements a focus for his district to benefit residents and business owners. He helped develop a comprehensive transportation plan for Henry County as chairman of his local chamber's transportation committee.
That experience, coupled with a term as chamber chairman and experience studying local and state laws give Welch a solid knowledge base to be a representative, he said. For more information about Welch visit his website at andywelchforhouse.com or call him on his cell at (678) 859-6632.

Keenan Lambert, 18, was convicted of first-degree assault and use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony in the stabbing of two women in July at the Nebraska Youth Center.
A presentence investigation was ordered, to be conducted by the District 11 probation office. His sentencing is set for April 28.
Lambert and Jordan Baker, 16, stabbed Diana Jones and Robin Schneider in July. The women were working at the youth center on the north edge of North Platte. The stabbings were deliberate. Both teens were initially charged with attempted murder but the charges were lowered because of their age.
The boys allegedly snuck the knives out of the kitchen. According to court records, Johns was seated, doing paperwork, when Lambert approached her, complaining of a headache. Johns gave him a Tylenol and sent him back to his room.
A short time later, she heard footsteps running in the hall and turned to see Baker running toward Robin Schneider. She said she saw the two of them struggle and she saw blood coming from Schneider's back.
Schneider was stabbed five times – three times in the back, once in her left shoulder and once behind her ear. She suffered a partially collapsed lung, according to court affadavits.
After Baker stabbed Schneider, he came around the front desk at Johns, she said in an affadavit. He stabbed her in the right side of her neck and shoulder. John said she pushed him away and he stumbled.
Johns was stabbed again on the other side of her neck, but she managed to get to Schneider and the two of them got into the office, according to the affadavit. Baker tried to push the office door open but Schneider got the door locked and Johns called 911, the affadavit said.
A 12-inch knife with an 8-inch blade was found at the scene. Baker, who reportedly stabbed himself in the hand in the struggle, left a bloody trail that led to the parking lot, where the boys stole Schneider's car to escape. They were caught about an hour later near Lexington.
According to investigators, the two teens planned to go to St. Louis. They had told two other boys in the home that they would hurt anyone who tried to stop them.
Another knife, said to be a smaller one, was never found.
Baker was also convicted Feb. 25 of first-degree assault and use of deadly weapon and his sentencing is scheduled on April 28.

Reviews for Dipped Gingersnaps
Average Rating
"I've been making those cookies for year. The addition of white chocolate totally blew me away.""
"My husband enjoys these spicy cookies with or without the coating"
"These are the best Ginger snaps I have ever made. My family is crazy about them. They like them without the dip but at Christmas i always dip them."
"How many cookie recipe has been posted?"
"These are always a favorite and requested often! I melt the chips in a mini crockpot and it works beautifully!"
"These have been a favorite for years and the recipe is always requested. I use white almond bark for the dipping and it works perfectly. (I melt in a double boiler, chocolate also works well.)"
"I didn't care for these at all. They tasted like their ingredients: oil and sugar, baked up crisp. They were not chewy at all, even though I kept them to the lower end of directions- 10 minutes. I disliked them so much that I tossed the 3 batches I baked and the remaining dough. I will look for a recipe that calls for some butter and brown sugar for more flavor and chewy softness. I cannot recommend these. Yuk."
"I have made these for many years and they are so good.The only problem I have is melting the white chips,,I have NEVER had luck with that process,,so at Christmas I rolled them in colored sugars for a more festive look.The recipe make a big batch.VERY delicious"
"This is a great recipe... everyone loves it!"
"My daughter won state fair cookie contest with this recipe. We don't bother to dip them--the taste is so good, these cookies don't need dressing up."
"These are awesome! Nice and chewy.For the person wondering about the amount of ginger: 3 tsp. is equal to 1 Tbsp. so nothing has changed about the recipe :)"
"It is a great recipe. However, I printed off this recipe last year or whenever and it calls for a TBL of ground ginger. I just mixed up my dry ingred and see it has been changed to 3 tsp. Will it make too much difference if I use the 1 TBL? They really are fantastic!"
"The white chocolate chips became doughy. I googled this problem, and apparently, it is very easy to have this problem if the chips get too hot. I set the microwave to low, and checked them after less than a minute, and still had bad luck. The recipe really does need to emphasize how to avoid getting doughy chips."
"Our whole family LOVES these cookies! They are easy to make and so yummy and tasty!! I get lots of comments about them whenever I take them somewhere."
"its a yearly staple in my house now"
"This is my go to Christmas cookies for family, bazaars and church!"
"Won several blue ribbons at the county fair with this recipe."
"I don't make sweets very often but when I do I usually make these. They are my sister's favorite."
"I've made these numerous times for holiday cookie exchanges and for family gatherings... there are never any left and there are always many requests for the recipe."
"I made these cookies last year for Christmas and again this year. My husbands asks for them through out the year. I made them a little bigger so i did not have to dip 4 dozen cookies. They are awasome"
"Everyone loved these cookies. Super easy to make and worth the time to dip in Vanilla coating!!!"
"Yummy! Mine baked quickly. Check on them early to make sure they are not burning.~ Theresa"
"I made these last year for our annual bake sale, and they are very good. They are a bit time-consuming."
"This is my all time favorite cookie. I like crisp cookies so I bake them just a bit longer. I give tins of these away for Christmas presents each year rave reviews. They taste excellent, are easy to make/not too time consuming, use basic ingredients you can find easily, and they pack/ship well. What more could you ask for."
"Super easy to make and boy are they delicious....better than a box anyday!!!!! I do not dip them, tho'.....we prefer them plain!!! Thanks for a great recipe"
"I've been making this recipe since it first came out in the magazine. Everyone who has tried them loves them."
"This cookie is by far my family and friends most favorite. I get requests to make them for Thanksgiving and Christmas. My husband doesn't like them dipped so I leave some plain for him. Once batch makes A LOT of cookies! If you want to make them ahead of time, they freeze very well. Nobody had any idea that they were eating a frozen cookie because it tasted so fresh!!! I also freeze the cookie dough when I don't have time to make the entire batch. These cookies are so delicious!!"
"I was looking for a good gingersnap recipe. I wanted them hard on the outside and soft inside. I was going to use them to accompany a pumpkin dip so they needed to be sturdy. These were wonderful! I made them small, 1/2 inch balls and they were perfect for my dip. The taste is very similiar, if not better to a ginger cookie I buy at my bakery.I didn't dip them in the white chocolate but will try it soon. My kids ate them up and loved them. I had to hide the rest in my freezer for my party."
"my kids favorite cookies soo good"
"i modified this recipe by adding 1 c of splenda in place of c of sugar, used 1/2 c of oil and the 2 containers of applesauce, used 1 c of ground bran buds, 3/4 c of flax seed, 1/4 c of oats and 3/4 c of whole wheat flour 1/4 c of white flour in place of 4 c of flour ommitted the salt and didn't roll cookies in sugar or use chips or shortening, i also added tons of ground cranberries, ground raspberries and ground blueberries delic my husband likes this cookies the best i have made so far since i started modifying your recipes"
"Best I ever had. Be sure to follow cooking times. Like with most cookies--when they look done, they are OVER DONE! The white chocolate adds a cooling sweet touch--a nice compliment to the spicy cookies!"
"I made these un-dipped and they were a hit. My husband hates molasses and yet loves these! A definite keeper."
"I LOVE these! My husband likes the gingersnaps without the white chocolate, so we make half of these with, and half without dipping. They are delicately crunchy on the outside, and chewy inside - perfect cookies. Thanks!"

The Washington State Potato Commission, Moses Lake, won its potato bet with the Colorado Potato Administrative Committee after the Seattle Seahawks beat the Denver Broncos in this year's Super Bowl.
As the loser of the bet, Colorado donated 25,500 pounds of fresh potatoes to Seattle food banks, 500 pounds for every point scored in the Seahawks 43-8 victory on Feb. 2.
The Washington commission matched the donation by giving 25,500 pounds of potatoes to Denver food banks, something Jim Ehrlich, executive director of the Colorado Committee, said was the plan all along.
"It was just some good, clean fun. The intention all along was for both states to make a donation," he said.
"The Washington State Potato Commission has decided to match the donation so both cities will find themselves victorious," Ryan Holterhoff, director of marketing and industry affairs, said.
An estimated 76,500 servings of potatoes will be served to people within both communities, according to Holterhoff.
Both organizations were able to take advantage of increased media attention during the bet, particularly with social media interactions.
"Both organizations made sure to include lighthearted posts that taunted the other group on a daily basis and so this helped followers on each site share their comments and predictions of the game," Holterhoff said.
The bet isn't quite over yet, however. In addition to the potato donation, the executive director of the losing team's state agreed to participate in a promotional effort in the opposing state's city.
"We will be working on generating ideas and scheduling the time when Jim Ehrlich from the Colorado committee will help promote Washington potatoes," Holterhoff said.

A phone call that Troy Polamalu made Sunday afternoon could prove costly.
An NFL spokesman said today that the All-Pro safety could be fined for violating league rules by using a cell phone during the Steelers' 17-13 win against Jacksonville.
Polamalu made the call after exhibiting concussion-like symptoms following a tackle of Jacksonville's bowling ball of a running back Maurice Jones-Drew.
The Steelers players are already sensitive about receiving envelopes from the NFL with fine notifications in them.
One can only imagine what the reaction will be if Polamalu, who has a history of concussions, gets docked for using a cell phone — he borrowed it from a team doctor — to call his wife, Theodora.
"She was concerned," Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said today at his weekly news conference. "In this era of player safety you would think that common sense would prevail in regards to some of those things. It wasn't a personal call, he wasn't checking on his bank account."
When asked if he would have a problem should the NFL fine Polamalu, Tomlin said, "I don't have a problem with anything. I'm not anticipating anything. All I said was I would hope common sense prevails in an instance in an era of player safety such as we're in."

Inflation in general and food inflation in particular greatly affects the poor as they spend a large share of their income on food. Analysis of food inflation helps to develop strategies for improving the supply- demand situation. The inflation in marine fish prices were analyzed by developing an aggregate marine fish price index based on the ex-vessel prices of 22 marine fish groups for the period 1995-2014. The growth in landings and value of marine fish in India for the period 1995 to 2014 was also analyzed using compound annual growth rates. The aggregate price index showed the highest increase during 2005-2014 period (129.42%) when compared to 1995-2004 period (106.16%). The compound annual growth rate of marine fish landings was 0.68 % during 1995-2004 period and 5.43 % during 2005-2014 period. The gross value of marine fish deflated based on wholesale price indices (WPI) showed that the growth in real values of marine fish was higher during 2005- 2014 period when compared to 1995-2004 period.
Anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory activities of ethyl acetate-methanol extracts of cephalopods namely, Amphioctopus marginatus, Urothethis duvauceli, Sepia pharaonis, Sepiella inermis, and Cistopus indicus were evaluated. The ethyl acetate-methanol extracts of C. indicus exhibited significantly greater (p < 0.05) cyclooxygenase inhibition activities (IC90 ~ 1 mg/mL, respectively) compared to other cephalopod species. Likewise, C. indicus displayed greater 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory activity (IC90 1.69 mg/ mL) compared to the other cephalopod species (IC90 > 2 mg/mL) considered in the present study. The solvent extracts derived from the members of the order Octopoda demonstrated fairly good α-amylase inhibitory activity (IC90 ≤ 2.5 mg/mL). Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitory activity of the ethyl acetate-methanol extract of C. indicus was found to be significantly greater (IC50 2.51 mg/mL) than other species of cephalopods (IC50 3.4–5.4 mg/mL; p < 0.05). The labeling of protons associated with different magnetic environments of the functional groups exhibited in the ethyl acetatemethanol extracts were analyzed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy that supported the in vitro anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory results. The ethyl acetate-methanol extract of C. indicus and S. inermis displayed greater proton integrals (ΣH) of highly electronegative moieties appeared in the low-field region in the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy spectra (C. indicus ΣHδ3.5–4.5 5.34, ΣHδ4.5–6.5 6.41; S. inermis ΣHδ3.5–4.5 6.52, and ΣHδ4.5–6.5 15.39) than other cephalopod species. A significant co-linearity was found between the electronegative groups present in the downfield position of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy spectra vis-à-vis anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory activities.
Explantation and trypsinisation methods for tissue dissociation were attempted for the establishment of primary cell cultures from the caerulean damsel, Pomacentrus caeruleus. Among the tissues taken, fin, liver and caudal peduncle showed good attachment with emergence of cells. The cells were best suited to grow in Leibovitz's L-15 basal medium supplemented with foetal bovine serum (initially 20 % which was later reduced to 5–10 % during subsequent passages) at an ambient temperature of 28 ± 2 C and pH 7.2 ± 0.2. These cultures persisted at temperatures from 17 to 32 C, and proliferated at temperatures from 24 to 30 C. The cells have been cryopreserved successfully with a survival rate of 80 %. Results suggest that fin, caudal peduncle and liver cell cultures have potential for development into cell lines.
Cultivated microalgae are an essential source of nutrition to several farmed finfish, shellfish and many other commercially significant aquaculture species. Knowledge of microalgaeassociated microhabitat is important for the development of a successful, pathogen-free hatchery rearing system. Therefore, an attempt was made to isolate (1), characterise (2) and determine the phylogenetic diversity of (3) bacteria associated with cultured microalgae, which are used as live feeds in many finfish and shellfish hatcheries. From 10 selected microalgal cultures, 34 bacterial isolates were obtained with total bacterial counts of 101 to 105 CFU ml−1. Most notably, we checked the presence of Vibrio spp., the major aquaculture pathogen in all tested microalgae and their absence suggests the suitability of these microalgae for use in aquaculture systems. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequencing revealed that the bacterial phylotypes associated with these microalgae were affiliated to Gammaproteobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria and Flavobacteriia classes. The genus Marinobacter (47%) was found to be the most predominant cultivable bacterium followed by Alteromonas, Labrenzia, Oceanicaulis, Ponticoccus, Stappia and Rheinheimera. Bacteria belonging to the genera Gaetbulibacter and Maritalea were also detected and, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of association of these bacterial groups with microalgae. The biochemical, enzymatic and antibacterial characteristics and tolerance to various abiotic stress factors of these bacterial isolates are also described in the present paper. Altogether, the present study gives an insight into the phycosphere of cultivated microalgae, which can be further explored for improving the productivity and reliability of indoor and outdoor microalgal culture systems.
The fourfinger threadfin Eleutheronema tetradactylum is reported as a protandrous hermaphrodite from Australian waters, while being a gonochorist in reports from Singapore and India, with a single report of protandrous hermaphroditism from the latter. Histological analysis of gonads of fish from Indian waters confirms protandrous hermaphroditism in E. tetradactylum. The study was based on 480 fish examined from eight locations along the Indian coast. Mean total length (LT) of male fish was 240mm with the transition to female starting from 280mm LT. Specimens confirmed as mature females were> 380mm LT.
Observations in fisheries sciences related to climate change foresee a future with intensified climate change as a consequence of increased greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere because of human activities. The increase in GHGs has resulted in warming of climate systems or global warming. In last 100 years, ending in 2005, the average global air temperature near the earth's surface has been estimated to increase at the rate of 0.74 ± 0.18°C (1.33 ± 0.32°F) (IPCC, 2007). In the latest IPCC report (IPCC, 2014), climate model projections indicated that the global surface temperature during the 21st century is likely to rise a further 0.3 to 1.7°C (0.5 to 3.1°F) for their lowest emissions scenario and 2.6 to 4.8°C (4.7 to 8.6°F) for the highest emissions scenario. In the past, 15 of the 16 warmest years have occurred since 2001 and rank among the 15 warmest years in the instrumental record of global surface temperature since 1850. Climate change and associated warming is increasingly being felt in many parts of the globe including India. Climate change is predicted to lead to adverse, irreversible impacts on the earth and the ecosystem as a whole. Although it is difficult to connect specific weather events to climate change, increases in global temperature has been predicted to cause broader changes, including glacial retreat, arctic shrinkage and worldwide sea level rise (Mohanty et al., 2010).The Chaliyar river is one of the west flowing rivers of Western Ghats. It has many tributaries such as Karimpuzha. Punnappuzha, Kuruvanpuzha, Tiruanchipuzha, Cherupuzha. etc. with a catchment area of 1535 sq. km. The total discharge of the river is 7775 Mm3, The river which was in a pristine condition before 4 to 5 decades has become highly degraded in the lower stretches by the effluents of Gwalior Rayons and in the upper stretches by various anthropogenic factors like deforestation, high siltation, dynamite fishing and use of copper sulphate for fishing. During the summer months, the water in the river is very low due to high run off during the wet months.

'So much has changed," Dr. Bernadette Quihuis-Alvarez said as she walked into Manzo Elementary School in Barrio Hollywood.
Sure has.
The west-side school is ecology-driven. On its patio, surrounded by classrooms, chickens roam; winter greens sprout from the ground, and workers erect a top-of-the-line greenhouse. Silvery water silos hold rainwater; earthworms snuggle underneath compost, and inside a hydroponic classroom sits a tank of tilapia fish and a cornucopia of vegetables that reach for the growing lights.
Quihuis-Alvarez, 37, visited Manzo recently for the first time in the nearly three decades since she attended her neighborhood school. Principal Mark Alvarez invited Quihuis-Alvarez, a doctor of osteopathy with El Rio Community Health Center's El Pueblo Clinic, to talk to the students.
While she found a school far different from the one she attended, a critical key has remained the same: the students.
"I thought they were very clever," she said several days after her visit. "I tried not to underestimate them, but I think I did."
Quihuis-Alvarez went to Manzo with an encouraging message and left with hope that maybe one day a Manzo student will follow her path.
She stood in front of about 25 students in Lizeth Grijalva's mixed fourth-fifth-grade class. The role model, in her white doctor coat with a stethoscope in the pocket, introduced herself by saying that at one time, she sat where they were sitting.
"I walked to school every day," said Quihuis-Alvarez, who grew up on West Delaware Street, a few blocks from Manzo.
She talked about her love for reading - "I pretended I was the character in the story" - and how sometimes she was bullied because she chose to excel in school.
"Some kids didn't want to be my friend," she told her rapt audience. "Some kids said it wasn't cool to read and do math."
But she surrounded herself with positive friends, kids like her who liked to read and behave in class. She also had a supporting cast at home.
She credits her family for keeping her on task. They reminded her that she was smart. They told her to ignore the taunts.
When she was a youngster, Quihuis-Alvarez was exposed to possibilities. Her mother, Marlene Martinez, works at Tucson Medical Center and encouraged her to focus on her dreams of a career in a medical field. Her dad, Ray Carley Quihuis, worked in the mines and later for the city, and bolstered her interest in science.
Her grandmother, Matilda Celaya, a nurse at St. Mary's, talked about her work, and her grandfather, Robert Celaya, a maintenance worker at the hospital, worked on science projects with her.
She told the Manzo students she had set a goal for herself while she was a student like them.
"I could see St. Mary's Hospital from my house. I imagined myself working there," she told the kids. And she now does, one week a month.
She went on to tell the students not to be afraid to ask questions, to ask for help and to fail. Yes, she told them, failure is all right - as long as they learn from their mistakes.
"Failure can lead to achievement and success," she told them.
Hers was a pep talk. She wanted to give back to a community that sustained her when she was a kid.
Yet a single question from a student triggered a sad memory for Quihuis-Alvarez. A boy told her that he wants to go to college, but a relative says college would be too difficult for him.
"I heard that from family," she said days after her visit. Over the phone I could feel her tear up. I sensed that she felt the boy's dreams were once hers.
But she knows something those students haven't learned yet - that if a kid from the barrio has dreams and drive, she can make them come true.

Re: catching bigger fish
I am going to tell you something along the same line as what ThonyB has said. Dan, and Dennis are making good points concerning the application of different rods and their usefulness in given conditions.
Thony mentioned sight fishing salmon, before I had read any of the answers that have been posted to you my thoughts were; want to catch bigger fish = locate bigger fish. Thony also mentioned driving a fish into a less desirable spot by over pressuring it. There is no better tool for catching a larger fish than visually locating a fish. If you are fishing blind as you would be in deep water or at great range then you must go with pot luck, whatever takes is what is on.
Here is something to consider for a summer activity. When the water flows are at their lowest in the areas you like to fish for steelhead & salmon, go for a walk. Locate the parts of the stream channel that are often too deep for you to study the bottom during the fall and spring runs. Take note of impending snags and also large boulders that will provide a holding spot for fish when they are in the river. By taking a little time getting to know your bottom structure you will be better able to know where to cast when the fish are in.
Whether you sight fish or have reconnoitered the bottom of a river channel nothing beats knowing where to cast. Always remember this, if you can see the fish they will be able to see you. All the scouting in the world will not pay off in full unless you exercise stealth as part of your stream and river strategy.
Anywhere can be the land of great expectations, broken dreams, or paradise found, it's all up to you.

Why the 9 to 5 Workday Is Dying for Women
March 25, 2016 | Focus on Women, Business and Careers
More U.S. moms than ever before, 31 million of them, are working. The Labor Department says that's 70 percent of women with children under the age of 18. But how, when and where these mothers earn a living is changing. Workplace flexibility is helping them balance careers with family life in ways that were never before considered practical. The result? Millions of women no longer need to choose between their kids and their career. They are breaking the mold of the 9 to 5 workday and replacing it with creative solutions.
Employers, determined to recruit and keep the best workers, are responding. Not every company offers every option when it comes to workplace flexibility, but most offer something. The concept of workplace flexibility is becoming so common it now has its own day. National Flex Day is held the third Tuesday in October to encourage workers and employers alike to get behind the need for more flexibility in the office.
Is the 9 to 5 dying for working women and, more specifically, working moms? Maybe. Here are four ways working mothers are balancing life at home and at the office.
1. Flex time. Flex time occurs when employees are allowed to vary the start and end times of their shifts. WorldatWork's recent Trends in Workplace Flexibility survey found this option to be the second most prevalent offered by employers, behind only working from home occasionally. Rose Stanley, a senior practice leader for WorldatWork, recently told the Huffington Post that, based on her research, she's found more working moms using this flexibility option than any other workplace accommodation. She added that flex time is popular because it allows mothers to be able to do things like drop off or pick up kids from daycare and school while still meeting their working world commitments.
2. Part-time work. Part-time work comes in at number three on the WorldatWork survey. Many good job candidates just a few decades ago who would have left the working world altogether after having kids are instead finding firms open to the idea of hiring them on a part-time or even seasonal basis. The startup PowerToFly has made an industry of partnering women with companies around the world for remote part-time work. The company's co-founder and CEO, Milena Berry, says they encourage women with children to embrace motherhood and their careers: "We encourage women to post photos of their kids and not hide who they are in their personal lives. The whole concept is that we want to inspire a whole new generation out there to say, 'This is who we are and how we get work done.'"
Another option is to take a full-time gig and make it part-time through a job share. Typically, a job share involves two people working a prearranged schedule for 16-32 hours each week. It is a great way to maintain a career and an income for those who can't put in the full-time hours.
3. Compressed work week. Compressed work weeks are great options for women who need the income from a full-time job but who do not want to be out of the home five days a week. Certified registered nurse Nikki Lorino works two 12-hour shifts and one 8-hour shift each week. She always works nights and takes weekend shifts when she can. The hospital that employs her pays an hourly premium for nights and a second one for weekends. With three young boys, a husband finishing his master's degree, student loans of her own and a new mortgage to pay, the added income and fewer hours of daycare serve her family well. "I sacrifice sleep, but I love my job and I love my kids; so it's the best of both worlds."
4. Telecommuting. Telecommuting involves work that can be done completely by Internet and phone and from home. Most of these jobs require access to a computer and the Internet, but not much more in the way of a home office. Medical transcriptionist Cretia Hentz works a scattered schedule of afternoons and evenings during the week as well as Saturday mornings. The later hours scared her at first because she had a son on the way, but her stepdaughter and husband pitch in, too; and they make it work for their family. "Sometimes my husband and I are a little like ships passing in the night," she says with a laugh, "but I get to be with my son all day, and we have no daycare expenses. It just works for our family."
These are just a few ideas to consider if you're trying to break free from the 9 to 5. The options prove that women are finding more and more ways than ever before to bring balance to their home and work lives. It's not practical to believe that every industry is conducive to flexible work options, but industries that do have those abilities will likely continue to embrace them to their benefit and to the benefit of the working moms they employ.
The women we spoke with agree their systems aren't flawless, but as a whole they say having flexible options has meant a happier home life and happier moms, too. And as the old saying goes: happy spouse, happy house.

About the Creator
We are baby boomers privileged to enjoy our dream of traveling full-time in our RV. Our four-year in-the-planning-stages dream of retiring early to go on the road full-time moved into high gear when God provided early retirement as a manufacturing engineer for Paul and as a church ministry administrator for Margery. Within five months, we had given away or sold the house and everything we owned except for some memorabilia we left with our daughter and her husband. Downsizing was very freeing for one of us, and she highly recommends it! It took a little longer for the other one to be convinced, but after almost four years, we both agree it's definitely been worth it.

The Hickory High girls' basketball team won the Northwestern 3A/4A Conference title game Friday night by knocking off Freedom, the No.2 seed in the tournament field on its home floor, 66-41 Friday night in Morganton, N.C. The Red Tornadoes (24-0), ranked No.2 in the Class 3A state poll, also won its 17th consecutive
conference game.
It was also the third time the Red Tornadoes have beaten Freedom (18-8) this season, and Hickory has now won 11 conference tourney titles in head coach Barbara Helms 12 seasons.
Hickorys Danasia Whitherspoon, who was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player, led the way for Hickory with 25 points, including 16 in the first half. Brittany Dixon finished with 19 points; Sadasia Tipps had 11 points.
The Red Tornadoes led 30-19 at the half, and a 12-2 run to start the second half basically put the game out of reach.
Ariyana Williams, who was named to the all-tournament team, and sophomore post player Amy Rhoney led Freedom with ten points apiece; Williams also had six steals. Freshman guard Amaryah Corpening added nine points for Freedom.
The No.1 seed, the Freedom High boys' basketball team (25-1) completed the sweep by knocking off the No.3 seed, Fred T. Foard, 65-50, in the Northwestern 3A/4A Conference tournament championship game Friday night in Morganton, N.C.
The Tigers (16-10) had an early 9-4 lead midway through the first quarter (the run was ignited by Tyler Johnson, who scored nine consecutive points for the Tigers) hit a dry spell and went scoreless until the five-minute mark of the second quarter. In the meantime, the Patriots put together a 14-2 scoring run to take an 18-11 lead. The Tigers never recovered.
Freedom made 10 3-pointers as a team from six different players. The conference tournamenmt crown was Rogers fourth in eight seasons on the sideline at his alma mater, including every even-numbered year now since 2010.
Khris Gardin finished with 12 points in the win and was named MVP of the tournament. He was joined on the all-tournament squad by teammates Bridges (14.3 in three games) and Gabe Logan (13.0 in three games).

Pietermaritzburg - Newly elected KwaZulu-Natal Speaker Lydia Johnson has called on new MPLs to respect the legislature by wearing suitable clothing and footwear.
Johnson was making closing remarks during the first sitting of the KZN Legislature where new MPLs were sworn in on Wednesday.
"We need to respect this house and accord it the decorum that it deserves, we cannot come here wearing takkies," said Johnson.
The sitting also saw the election of the new speaker and premier Senzo Mchunu.
Johnson's reference to takkies was seen as a snub to Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) MPLs who arrived dressed in red overalls and wearing takkies.
EFF MPL Vusi Khoza said they would continue dressing in clothes to "identify with the masses" and they believed that there was nothing wrong with their dress code.
"There is nothing in the rule books that says how we should dress, and therefore we will continue dressing in the way that identifies us with people, look at them (members of the public) they are dressed in takkies and overalls because of their economic condition," insisted Khoza.
He said that they had not been elected to make the Speaker comfortable but to make a positive impact on the lives of people.
New kids on the block the EFF caused a stir in some other provincial legislatures as well on Wednesday.
According to The Star newspaper red-clad EFF members in Johannesburg caused a delay. This was after Gauteng legislature security guards received instructions from ANC chief whip Brian Hlongwa not to allow any EFF members into the legislature wearing party regalia. Legislature rules forbid party regalia.
The MPLs were keeping up with their leader Julius Malema who arrived for his swearing in at the National Assembly in Parliament wearing a red overall and hard hat.
Malema and his colleagues wore red boiler suits or dressed like domestic workers to symbolise their stated aim of representing the poor. - Sapa

Grain futures stabilized prior to the WASDE report release. The crop markets continued last week's late slide Sunday night as the industry squared positions ahead of the monthly USDA WASDE report that came out late this morning. Corn futures firmed just before the report, then lost ground again in response to the data. May corn tumbled 6.0 cents to $4.83/bushel late Monday morning, while December lost 4.75 to $4.80.
The soy complex reacted poorly to the WASDE report. After proving quite strong last week, the soy complex came under downward pressure prior to the midsession release of the WASDE report. Beans and meal then accelerated downward in response to the news, while oil futures gave up early gains. Ultimately, the USDA cut its forecast of the Brazilian soybean crop and domestic carryout predictions less than was generally expected. May soybeans dove 25.75 cents to $14.32/bushel in late Monday morning activity, while May soyoil sank 0.22 cents to 44.10 cents/pound, and May soymeal fell $7.7 to $450.1/ton.
The wheat markets tried to stabilize in the wake of the WASDE data. Despite likely underlying support stemming from the uncertain Black Sea situation, wheat futures accompanied the other crop markets lower Sunday night. Futures actually turned mixed by late morning, but came under fresh pressure when the WASDE report was released. May CBOT wheat futures skidded 3.0 cents to $6.51/bushel just before lunchtime Monday, while May KCBT wheat futures dipped 1.5 cents to $7.1975, and May MWE futures were flat at $7.05.
Mixed cash expectations seemed to confuse CME cattle action Monday morning. Although wholesale beef prices ended last week strongly are probably expected to keep rising this week, cash cattle prices declined last week. Many traders probably anticipate more of the same this week, but that's not a given. Mixed Monday morning futures trading illustrated the confusion about short-term prospects. April cattle futures were flat at 143.25 cents/pound around midsession Monday, while August rallied 0.40 cents to 134.25. Meanwhile, April feeder cattle climbed 1.37 cents to 175.02 cents/pound, and August gained 1.32 to 177.40.
Hog futures surged again to start the week. Last Friday's preliminary slaughter total for the week confirmed earlier talk of sharply reduced hog slaughter and added weight to expectations for continued reductions. That news, along with surging cash and wholesale prices boosted futures again Monday morning. April hogs spiked 2.72 cents to 115.72 cents/pound by late morning, while June soared 3.00 to 123.50.

THE traditional free concert to mark Good Friday in Upton by Philomusica choir will take place once again in St Peter and St Paul Church.
The local choir will be performing the Passion Music from Handel's much-loved Messiah together with other music and readings appropriate to Good Friday on April 18 from 7.30pm.
Linda Parsons, Philomusica conductor, said: "We've been giving Good Friday concerts in Upton on Severn parish church for several years now.
"We think it's a very good idea to mark Good Friday in this way and people really appreciate the fact that the concert is free of charge. We're particularly pleased to be able to sing Handel's wonderful music in this concert."
Linda will conduct the Philomusica Consort at the event and the pianist will be James Quinn.

Counseling Awareness Month 2017
Our History
Four independent associations convened a joint convention in Los Angeles, CA in 1952: The National Vocational Guidance Association (NVGA), the National Association of Guidance and Counselor Trainers (NAGCT), the Student Personnel Association for Teacher Education (SPATE), and the American College Personnel Association, in hopes of providing a larger professional voice. They established the American Personnel and Guidance Association (APGA), later changing names in 1983 to the American Association of Counseling and Development. On July 1, 1992, the association changed its name to the American Counseling Association (ACA) to reflect the common bond among association members and to reinforce their unity of purpose.
Headquartered in Alexandria, VA, just outside Washington, DC, the American Counseling Association promotes public confidence and trust in the counseling profession so that professionals can further assist their clients and students in dealing with the challenges life presents. The American Counseling Association services professional counselors in the U.S. and in 50 other countries including Europe, Latin America, the Philippines and the Virgin Islands. In addition, the American Counseling Association is associated with a comprehensive network of 19 divisions and 56 branches. The American Counseling Association also collaborates with several corporate and related organizations to enhance member services.

and Documentary Filmmaker
March 27, 2014
8:30 a.m. – 10:00 a.m.
His first feature length film,
Super Size Me
, played in more than 100 countries, influenced school lunch programs across the nation, empowered millions to change their own eating habits, and eliminated super size options from the world's largest fast food chain. The film was also used by senators, congressmen, and lobby groups as a call to action for multiple food and education related causes.
Other accomplishments include: the critically acclaimed FX program,
30 Days
, which dealt with such polarizing issues as the minimum wage, prison reform, abortion, and gun control;
Where in the World is Osama bin Laden?

Comic-Con Episode IV – A Fan's Hope
, which follows a group of attendees around the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con. A month later, his doc
hit theaters, which features an all-star cast of commentators including Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, and Zach Galifianakis who hilariously opine on the grooming habits of the 21st century man.
In 2013, Spurlock returned to TV as host and producer of the CNN original series,
Inside Man
. Each week Spurlock provides an insider's view into rarely-seen sectors of American life that include gun lovers, marijuana growers, migrant farm workers, and end-of-life caregivers.

By utilizing superheated air, this appliance is capable of preparing fried food with less oil. That means it is now possible to enjoy the fatty and delicious taste of fried food without the actual fat that is used in deep fryers. (Read more: What is an air fryer?)
Do the fries taste deep-fried?
"Look – nothing is going to replace that deep-fried taste, so no, they don't," said Ramsay honestly.
"But, the Airfryer uses a tablespoon of oil and the chips come out crisp on the outside and tender on the inside – they're a healthier version, and they taste great."
Although initially expensive, an air fryer is an important piece of equipment in the kitchen. It not only produces healthy food but cuts down on preparation time, cooking time, and even cleaning time.
Cleaning is arguably the least fun part of cooking. It requires additional time, especially when cleaning conventional deep frying equipment. Cleaning an air fryer, however, is easy and uncomplicated. Most air fryers are even dishwasher-friendly.
Though an air fryer is typically used for frying food with minimal or no oil at all, it offers other useful functions as well. With the included additional accessories, it is also possible to bake and grill in your air fryer.
Some air fryers go the extra mile to offer unique functions like automated cooking settings. These preset choices allow users to cook with an air fryer without worrying about temperature or time. The predefined settings automatically adjust the temperature and timer of the appliance to perform your chosen activity.

Osprey Medical Inc.
's Limb Recovery System Presented At Major Medical Conference
Minnesota, United States and Melbourne, Australia – April 7, 2013 – Osprey Medical Inc. (ASX: OSP) today announced that results of the Limb Recovery™ System pilot study were presented at the Diabetic Foot Global Conference (DFCON), March 20-22, 2014 in Los Angeles. The study's primary investigator, Associate Professor Paul Wraight, presented a scientific poster that summarized the results of the pilot safety study of percutaneous isolated limb perfusion of the infected diabetic foot. Results showed that targeted delivery of antibiotics to the lower limb is both safe and achievable. Additionally, the therapy was shown to achieve significant reductions in bacterial levels in patients with diabetes suffering from life or limb threating foot infections. DFCON is the premier international diabetic foot medical conference in North America. A copy of the scientific poster is attached hereto and will be available in the Investors Relations section of Osprey's website at www.ospreymed.com.
Associate Professor Paul Wraight stated: "Our early clinical results are very encouraging as the system has been shown to significantly reduce bacterial load in patients with advanced foot infections. In fact, one of our study patients had been scheduled for amputation prior to being enrolled in the pilot trial but this was cancelled given the excellent improvement in infection as a result of percutaneous isolated limb perfusion. Obviously, this is anecdotal evidence from a small pilot trial; but it provides optimism for our larger, randomized, efficacy trial." Osprey reported in its March Investor Newsletter that enrolment in the 20-patient randomized efficacy trial was halfway complete. The study will evaluate the effectiveness of the technology compared to standard dose intravenous antibiotic delivery, and is expected to be completed by year end.
About Diabetic Limb Infections
Diabetes is a growing national epidemic in many developed countries. Research shows that approximately 8% of the US and Australian populations have diabetes. Diabetes related foot pathology is the most frequent cause of hospitalisations, with at least 15% of all hospital admissions and includes conditions such as foot ulcers, infections, and gangrene. The combination of difficult to treat infection with poor wound healing and poor blood supply can lead to significant patient complications including lower limb amputations. It is estimated that there are more than 100,000 lower limb amputations annually in the US.
About the Victorian Government's Market Validation Program (Australia)
Osprey Medical's clinical study for its Limb Recovery System, conducted at The Royal Melbourne Hospital, has received funding through the Victorian Government's Market Validation Program, which seeks to engage with both government and business to promote innovation.
About The Royal Melbourne Hospital
The Royal Melbourne Hospital is one of Australia's pre-eminent hospitals. It provides world-leading clinical care, extensive surgical and medical expertise and outstanding research, built on its foundation as a university teaching hospital. The Royal Melbourne Hospital provides the full range of tertiary/quaternary level medical and surgical services including cardiac, neuroscience, oncology and trauma services as well as sub-acute care, aged care, rehabilitation, ambulatory care, and residential and community services. The Royal Melbourne Hospital is a privileged member of Melbourne's world-leading Parkville Precinct, and enjoys strong relationships with many of the city's major universities and research institutes. Through these partnerships, The Royal Melbourne Hospital is committed to improving patient care through translating research outcomes into clinical practice.
About Osprey Medical
Osprey Medical's core technologies originated from research conducted by Dr David Kaye at Melbourne's Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute. Osprey is focused on improving patients' quality of life by protecting those with chronic kidney disease from contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) and preventing limb amputation in diabetic patients with advanced foot infections. The Company's primary product, the AVERT™ System, is designed to reduce the amount of dye (contrast) injected during commonly performed heart procedures, thus protecting kidneys from damaged known as contrast induced nephropathy (CIN).
