The American Cancer Society Relay for Life will hold its event in Somers on June 3-4. It begins at 7 p.m. at the Somers Middle School and continues until 7 a.m. June 4.
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is an overnight community celebration where groups of friends, families, neighbors and coworkers form teams to walk or run around a track to raise spirits, awareness and funds to fight cancer through American Cancer Society research, education, advocacy and patient & family services. The photo above shows lights from a previous Luminaria Ceremony where candles are lit in memory of those lost to cancer and honoring survivors.
Former and current cancer patients, those who have lost a loved one to cancer and the general public are invited to take part in this team and family-oriented event. Participants can camp out at the Relay site, and when they are not taking their turn walking, take part in activities and enjoy local entertainment.
This "celebration of life" is intended to brins the Somers community together in a unified effort to fight cancer. Teams from companies, religious groups, organizations, hospitals and schools collect donations and can win individual and team prizes for their efforts. Information about how to form a team or become involved in Relay For Life is available from the American Cancer Society. To register a team call the American Cancer Society at 914-397-8822 or go online.
The first Somers Relay for Life was sparked by the Somers Leo's Club participation in Yorktown's Relay last year. More than 40 people attended the Kick off in February at Somerfields and since then 22 teams — with 180 people — have been formed. Many community leaders, groups and businesses are getting involved and sponsoring or contributing to the event. Sponsors and donors such as Patsy's Pizza Bronx River; Equipment, LLC; Athlade Sports Drink; Somers Lions; FC Somers Soccer club, Anthony DeVito LLC; Cardillo Pools and Spas; and Westchester Adventure Boot Camp.

In early May, my husband and I will be going from Arenal after a few days in Osa (Bosque del Cabo).
I was thinking of flying Puerto Jimenez/SJ/La Fortuna but we would end up with a 7 am flight from Puerto Jimenez and a 3+ hour layover in the airpot. Now I am thinking that a 10:15 flight from Puerto Jimenez and car transportation (driver, not a rental car) to our hotel in Arenal might be better. Any advice on that? Is it a scenic drive? Also, any recommendations on hiring private transportation and perhaps a rough estimate of the cost would be really helpful. A shared van would be fine too if they leave at a time that works with our schedule. From my limited research so far though, it looks like they tend to leave later in the afternoon.
My second question is about lodging in San Jose. We get in late our first night in CR and then leave on a flight for Osa the next day. Any suggestions for a good hotel near the airport from which our SJ to Puerto Jimenez Nature flight leaves? It does not need to be upscale, just clean and convenient. If they have a shuttle to the airport, that would be great.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. This board has been very helpful during our planning.

Transportation from Osa to Arenal and hotel in SJ
In early May, my husband and I will be going from Arenal after a few days in Osa (Bosque del Cabo).
Report Abuse
I would fly from Puerto Jimenez to SJO and then have a private driver take you from SJO to the Arenal area. We always reserve our drivers through our hotels when we reserve them, and that's worked great for us. I can't remember the exact amount we paid on our last trip. I thought $180, and when I asked my husband he remembered $160, so that gives you a general idea. It's about a three hour drive. It's scenic but also hilly and twisty; I always take Dramamine.
Report Abuse
If you do a search on this site, you'll come up with numerous posting with lists and recommendations for private drivers. There are many who are often recommended on this site and $150-$180 would be the norm.
We've stayed a few times at Adventure Inn which has a free shuttle, great breakfast and is about 10-15 minutes from the airport. http://www.adventure-inn.com/
Last time we stayed in downtown Alajuela at Los Volcanes Hotel which also had a free taxi back to the airport. You would pay for a taxi to arrive there, but cost is minimal since it's very close. We were meeting Tico friends for dinner, so wanted to be downtown, but we also enjoyed staying in the historic home. http://hotellosvolcanes.com/
Ditto VG's advice on Dramamine - I live on it in CR!!
Report Abuse
I forgot to mention Interbus since you said you wouldn't mind a shared van; you would just have to check their schedule and pickup spots.
The first time we went to Arenal, I didn't know to bring Dramamine. I had never gotten car sick in the U.S. but wow, I felt awful. The driver pulled out a little pill and said, "Here take this." I was so desperate that I did.
Regarding the prices, it would vary a little bit based on where you stay - places like the Lost Iguana or The Springs or AOL could be a little more since they're further out.
Carlos Bogarin is an excellent driver if you want a specific name recommendation. We've used him a couple of times.
http://destinos-encantados.com/ is the link.
Report Abuse
Thanks so much for the information. It sounds like it will be easy to set up a driver for that leg of our trip.
Also, thanks for the tip on dramamine. I do get carsick, so I appreciate knowing in advance to take something.
I took care of our flights to and from CR and our hotels (execept for the first night) quite a while ago. We will be going from Osa to Arenal to Monteverde. Now that our trip is only a couple of months away, I am starting to get excited! Time to break out those guide books again and start thinking about tours and activities.
Report Abuse
Sounds like a great itinerary - where did you guys decide to stay?
Report Abuse
We are staying at Bosque del Cabo (4 nights), Lost Iguana (3 nights), Hidden Canopy (3 nights), and Xandari (1 night).
The great posts here, especially yours, helped us decide.
I am going to go back through my information on tours and excusions over the next week or so. I may have some more questions for you...
Report Abuse
Just remembered I wanted to ask about flights. Is there any advantage to having the hotel book our flights to and from Osa on Nature Air. I was going to do it myself, but they offered. Does it makes any difference who does it?
Report Abuse
Ooh, you're going to a lot of my favorite spots. I'm happy to help with any tour questions. We had BdC book our flights for us when we went on Sansa. If I remember correctly, it was the same price for us either way.

Blogging for Books, I jumped on the chance. I struck out with the first two books I've reviewed, but the last one was good, and I had a feeling that one would be a good laugh.
I was right. One thing I did notice was that if you are a fan of his comedy you will probably have a sense of deja vu as you read this. Gaffigan's comedy talks about his crazy life with his five kids in a small two-bedroom apartment in New York. Since this book is about his kids driving him to insanity, some of his comedic one liners and stories resurface in this book. I have also heard that he does the reading for the audio book and he added some side comments that weren't in the book.
I think this book is great for people who have kids, no matter how many. I think they will be able to relate to this a lot. People who read this and don't want kids, may have been given another reason not to. One of things that I liked about this book is that Gaffigan broke the "fourth wall" of a book by actually addressing the reader not only in his funny foreword but throughout the book. I think it really set the tone for the stories he would tell in the rest of the book.
I recommend this if you like Gaffigan's commedy and/or you are just looking for a light hearted short book to read in-between others. It's funny, not too long and you'll close the last page with a laugh!
Click here for more info and a bio on Jim Gaffigan. I received this book from Blogging for Books in exchange for this review.
Happy Reads, Everyone!

Lakeview Elementary School
Sarasota, FL | Sarasota County
September 6, 2013
Lakeview is a wonderful school. The parents involvement is fantastic and the teachers we have had thus far for our two elementary aged children are phenominal. Boh are my children are thriving in this school. My children love school and are challenged everyday.Submitted by a parent
December 31, 2010
Pitiful. We moved here recently and I have observed classes and reviewed the materials (school books, hand outs, etc.) and observed the classroom. The materials are so poor for reading (actually incorrect sentence structure etc.) The teacher didn't even speak with correct grammar. The classes do not encourage cognitive development nor thinking for themselves, and are mind numbingly boring for (my) children. (What does one expect with the pay rate of the teachers here.?) In short, I have pulled my children out and they are going to the New Gate School which is a Montessori program. It is a sacrifice for us, but we will do it, the education of our children is paramount.Submitted by a parent
August 15, 2010
Lakeview Elementary offers a safe, sound educational & nurturing experience. I am a parent of 2 kids @ Lakeview. I also am a former high school teacher, both at private and public schools. A school is only as good as the parents. Lakeview's parents are very involved. Lakeview's staff is the BEST I've experienced. Last, let me make this very clear: Lakeview's curriculum stands toe to toe against ANY private school.Submitted by a parent
April 7, 2009
I have had my child in a private school for several years. I had to put him in public school system this year and the teachers are terrible. I am very disappointed in the teaching staff. The curriculum is as good or better than the private, but if your child doesn't like the teacher it makes for a long school year.Submitted by a parent
September 4, 2008
While I agree with all of the statements I read here about the excellence of Lakeview, I just found out that my first grader has only one 30-minute recess every SIX days. With so much required work - all of which is scheduled - a break with free time and play can only help these children with their attention span. To let off a little steam and actually play promotes a love of school and an opportunity to interact with friends. The principle needs to know that this is important to the parents or there will be no change.Submitted by a parent
April 7, 2008
My daughter and my son enjoy so much Lakeview, unfortunally we moved from sarasota and they have to go and try a new school around our house, but I want to say that Lakeview is one of the best schools ever. Tahnk all staff, teachers, principal, actually everyone who always being there for them. Sincerelly, Daniele.Submitted by a parent
August 13, 2007
I have had children at this school for the last 4 years and have been very happy. I volunteer at least once a week and go to PTO meeting which keeps me in the loop for things going on at school. Parental involvement makes all the difference. My kids love seeing me at school and the teachers always appreciate helping hands. Teachers are great with lots of experience. Good gifted program also. Wonderful school!!Submitted by a parent
October 5, 2005
There is a lot of parent involvement at this school. If you have the time they'll find a place for you to help out. My kids love seeing me around campus and I get to know what's going on. Students are challenged in fun ways!Submitted by a parent
April 20, 2005
My son has been at Lakeview for two years now, and they have a wonderful acedemic program available. The teachers are highly responsible and well prepared for the students, and the technology available to the students is outstanding.Submitted by a parent
April 16, 2005
Very open friendly atmosphere. Good teachers, however mainstream teachers very unfamiliar with ESE guidelines and students needs. Principal very focused on achievement.Submitted by a parent
March 21, 2005
Our son spent nearly three years at this excellent school filled with mostly caring, compassionate and highly skilled educators that had a curriculum to deal with a strong contingent of gifted/very bright students. Great parent participation at all levels welcome and received here! We have moved to PA and sure do miss Lakeview.Submitted by a parent
December 17, 2004
Lakeview has a vision and parents are integral in the process. Teachers are helpful and well-prepared in lessoning planning and pedagogy. Also has a great gifted program.Submitted by a parent
August 26, 2003
Lakeview is a fabulous school from top to bottom. The entire staff does an exceptional job of keeping the children on the highest of expectations for all grades!Submitted by a parent

Interprocess communication with D-Bus and HAL
It's the end of the line for CORBA! Gnome now relies on the D-Bus messaging system, and KDE is in the process of migrating.
Nobody likes applications that spend all day sitting in the corners of the desktop and refusing to talk to anything else. The least you might expect would be for them to exchange data with other desktop residents using simple drag & drop techniques. But many users expect their programs to demonstrate more advanced communication skills at all levels. Of course, users want pluggable USB disks no matter what program they are using. And VOIP softphones should make friends with the new hardware when you change the headset without demanding a reboot. To allow this to happen, a Linux system needs a communication system that lets desktop applications talk to one another and to the underlying levels right down through the kernel to the hardware. And if the Freedesktop developers have any say in the matter, D-Bus [1], which relies on Hardware Abstraction Layer HAL [2], will be the communication system for future generations of Linux.

4 Good Reasons to Conduct Regular Market Research
By Michael Isaacson for our 15 Ways to Build Your B2B Brand in 2015 blog series
Early in my career, I had a client who had this sign hanging in his office: "In God we trust… all others bring data."
At first blush, the sign made me nervous. I thought, "Do I seem untrustworthy? Does he not have confidence in the company I work for? Do we seem devious?"
As I worked with him, I found out that it wasn't a matter of trust. It was a matter of certainty. This particular client practiced what he called "Evidence-Based Decision Making." Research gave him the tools to make informed business decisions about product improvements, pricing strategies, channels of distribution and marketing. He had decades of experience behind him and great intuition when it came to sales and marketing but, in the end, he let research and facts be the deciding factors in his decision making process.
20 years later, I'm an even bigger believer in the value of research. However, I now see the value well beyond the four P's. It's about staying competitive in markets that are shifting and changing on a daily basis. Here's how you can stay on top of your game:
1. Learn more about your own customers. Sometimes, the best research can be a simple conversation with the people closest to us; our clients. Do you know what's new at your client's company? Do you know how and why it came about? Do you understand their biggest challenge? Do you know the one big thing that keeps them up at night? Do you know if they have any pending major announcements, expansions or closures?
2. Learn more about your competitors. Before you can understand your competitive edge, you need to understand your competition. What are their strengths and weaknesses? How do their products or services compare to those of your client? How are they marketing themselves? What are they doing better than you? How do you compare in terms of equity and awareness?
3. Learn more about the trends and opportunities that exist in your industry. Use research to connect with your target market. Give yourself the information you need to forecast realistic sales targets. Increase sales opportunities by detecting unserved or underserved markets, or identify new products and services for an entirely new demand. Get a better profile of your end-user to create more effective marketing campaigns.
4. Reduce your business risk, otherwise known as CYA (Cover Your A..). Use information, not just intuition, when making business decisions. Regular research can help you recognize and plan for industry and economic shifts. If you're looking to expand, it can help you determine if the market is ready for your new product or service. If you're looking to consolidate, it can help you analyze and prioritize your options.
In a nutshell, conducting good quality market research on a regular basis will help you better understand your industry and your target market… not to help you fit in… but to help you stand out!

|Introduction: Prediction of the bacteriophages? efficiency is the integration of their lytic cycle and experimental results in destroying bacteria with those found in the disciplines of mathematics, statistics and information systems to describe their natural phenomena in order to find the exact numbers of phages that can lysate bacteria. Objectives: This work was conducted to create a predictive mathematical model for the development of dynamic interactions between a Salmonella phage and its respective host. Methods: The empirical model was developed from the observations and calculations of bacteriophage replication to solve the distinct mechanisms of Salmonella Typhi by which their efficiency can impact their interactions, including changes in lifecycles, therapeutic dose and mortality rates.Simulated data are compared with the data obtained experimentally to assess the suitability of themodel for multiplicity of infection. Results: Mathematical models and field observations showed that thestrength and mechanisms of bacteriophage can alter the determination of Salmonella Typhi as antimicrobial therapy. The logarithmic and exponential growth curves solved the replications and interactions of bacteriophage with their host bacteria in certain time decay, the changes in concentrations over time was solved by the differential equations that also were used to determine the therapeutic outcome. Conclusion: The predicting of the potentiality of lytic phages in lysing Salmonella Typhi can be estimated by using this mathematical model due the experiments environment conditions. Therefore, for more accurate parameter estimationsthe model wassimulated in a programmed MS Excel sheet, it is likely that mathematical modelling could be made to work by changing their values according to the laboratorial experiment conditions.

Ah, the kitchen renovation. The endless, psychosis-inducing project-of-projects. Today I want to provide some updates about what we've done and what we've learned.
Full disclosure: We've not yet gotten to the sexy parts, like drywall. (Please ignore the fact that I just described drywall as 'sexy.' I told you this project does bad things to the mind.) Sexy-stuff or not, what we've been up to has done a lot to make the space safer and more stable, so I thought I'd walk through a few of our major accomplishments. For anyone that is thinking of tackling a renovation like this on an old house, it's good to know how much work goes into just getting the space ready for the things you can actually see in the end. I, for one, had *no idea* when we started this thing how much work we'd have to do…
Previously on the blog, I described the demo process and basically suggested that we went from THIS…
To THIS…
Yeah. I know. But… baby steps.
Basically, that first stage of the process entailed removal of all the old plaster and lath, taking the room down to the studs. We also removed a plywood subfloor that had covered up our original heart pine floors for some decades, took out the drop-down ceiling made of acoustic tiles that had covered the plaster ceiling when we bought the house, and we had a contractor put in a support beam to correct the bowing in the ceiling between the two halves of our kitchen — spaces that, long ago when the house was built, were separate rooms.
That was Month One. Throughout Month Two, we've worked on this massive project pretty constantly, and we've made some great progress.
First things first, the roof above the kitchen needed to be repaired to stop some pesky leaks, and we had to have major plumbing and electrical work done. The plumbing under our kitchen was in need of upgrading and we needed the hot and cold water lines as well as the drain line moved from one side of the room to the other to accommodate the new layout the finished kitchen will have. We also needed a water line for the new fridge to be installed and the water and drain lines for the washer/dryer to be upgraded. (Having the laundry in the kitchen may sound weird, I know, but it's fairly common in old houses in the South.) Also, the pre-existing electrical work was still largely knob-and-tube, as the image above at the upper-left demonstrates. That all had to be removed and new electrical work roughed in. When the drywall is done, the electricians will return and finish.
Following these systems-upgrades, we had to install more framing. You can see an image at the upper-right, above, of my stepdad, Steve, installing new studs on the exterior-facing wall, where the stove will go. Long before we bought the house, a large window there was removed and new studs were never added.
Then it was time to add furring strips. Oh, gawd — the furring strips. Basically, we needed to add strips a 1/2″ deep to the face of the studs so that the drywall will match the depth of the remaining plaster and lath on the other side of the room.
(Manny stapling the insulation into place. You can see the furring strips on the facing side of the studs.)
After the electrical work, the stud-additions, and the application of all of those freaking furring strips, it was time for insulation! (This was necessary as it's an exterior wall.) I'm pleased to report that this was one part of the project that went super swiftly and smoothly! Manny and I had all of the insulation up on that exterior wall in about an hour.
Wait… did I imply we were done with the furring strips at this point? Oh, well — I was wrong. We're installing a beadboard ceiling over the damaged plasterwork in the kitchen to match the pre-existing beadboard in the breakfast nook, and we have to have furring strips attached to the ceiling joists to secure this to.
(Two shots of the furring strips we added to the ceiling to support the beadboard we'll be adding to cover the plaster.)
And then there is our floor. Our poor, poor original heart-pine floor. We were calling it the "swiss-cheese floor" there for a while because after we removed the plywood subfloor (which had been installed to support the bad laminate we removed after Christmas), we had to extract a lot of stripped and broken screws.
(Our original flooring revealed after we removed the first sheet of plywood sub-flooring secured above it. Are you thinking that that floor looks too far gone to save? Hmm… so did the flooring contractors I spoke to…)
(A close-up of the wood plugs we installed to fill the holes left after the screw-extraction work we had to endure to get the floors to a sand-able state. The floors are pine, but the plugs are oak — we just couldn't get our hands on any pine plugs in the size we needed. We know the plugs will stain differently and will be noticeable when the floors are finally refinished, but we're okay with that.)
The floor has already proved a massive effort. Under the old corner-cabinet on the exterior wall, the original heart pine had been removed and plywood left in its place. We had to add new (old) heart pine and also remove a few planks that were too damaged to be restored. You can see Manny and Steve removing and repairing some planks at the upper-left, above. At right, you can see a close-up of the muck and junk we had to scrape off of the floor then to prepare it for sanding and refinishing.
Here, you can see one section of the floor-patching in progress. The vintage pine planks came from a combination of places, as we ended up needing quite a few. Some we had laying around in our attic and under our house (on a little shelf, not touching the ground). Thank goodness the home inspector pointed out to us the ones under the house or we might not have known they were there. The rest we got from the Southern Pine Company of Georgia — one of our local favs, with a warehouse that is a must-see if you're ever in town.
Chiseling and scraping that nasty-stuff off of the original floors was no easy task. It took weeks. It was unpleasant to say the least. We still haven't sanded them — we hope to get to that this weekend — but after we do we should be able to tell if they're refinish-able or if, as we have so often been advised, we'll have to give up on them. Not that we'll give up completely; the plan is that if we can't refinish them we're going to paint them. I will be *damned* if we put anything on top of them, though. Not. Gonna. Happen.
One of the most exciting signs of progress relates to that awkward second door frame. I mentioned in the demo-post on the blog that one of the design-conundrums Manny and I encountered when we were laying out the plan for the new kitchen was in regard to the two entry doors, side-by-side, leading into the space from the dining room. The previous owners had adopted a corner sink solution along the exterior wall because those side-by-side entryways from the dining room just didn't allow for a galley layout.
My stepdad reframed the innermost door and cut away about nine inches of wall space — you can see the difference by comparing the two photos above — so that we'll have a pass through. The sink and dishwasher will sit under it. You can see the new plumbing in the bottom of the image at the right above.
And here is an image of the passthrough-in-progress from the dining room. I know it doesn't look like much, progress-wise, but it's really exciting as we can no longer walk through that door. Well, Tilly can, because she's super short and the lower part isn't closed in yet. But Manny and I now have one way in and one way out of the kitchen from the dining room — just the way it should be.
For comparison, here is an image of the plan for the passthrough:
(The plan for the passthrough between our kitchen and dining areas, drawn by my stepdad, Steve.)
While Manny and I chose the design from some inspiration images, we can't take credit for this elevation drawing. That's all Steve.
Anyway, as these pictures are perhaps making clear, a very good deal of this progress is due to the real brains behind the operation — Steve. My stepdad is a retired surgeon, so he's very meticulous. You wouldn't necessarily assume surgery translates to this kind of work, but he has a great ability to visualize how you'd fix things. He also happens to have a lot of experience with renovations. It's backbreaking, tiring work and we're in the lot-of-work/little-reward stage still. But he's been an immense help and he's taught Manny and me a lot of things we need to know about how to work on and upgrade homes.
I should also mention that he has basically guided this project despite being unable to speak. About a year and a half ago, he had a total laryngectomy due to cancer. So we have had to proceed with a lot of writing out of directions. He demonstrates incredible patience with us, though, and without him we would have had to hire the entire thing out to a contractor and we wouldn't have learned much of anything besides the fact that contractors are expensive.
We are getting really close now to the tipping-point — to the stuff that's going to make the space actually look better, and like a kitchen again. Pretty soon we'll sand and refinish the floors, attach the beadboard ceiling, box in the faux-beams, and put up and tape/mud/sand the drywall. Then it's on to paint and cabinet/counter installation. I will be doing quite a happy dance when we get there. In the meantime, we're plugging along and I continue to (try to) beat back the cleaning-demons that possess me.


text: Speaking of rolex replica watches, had to mention its brand history and value orientation, according to the latest statistics, Rolex in China is already a well-known pronoun, and is also the most favorite uk replica watches brand. The number of people for the Rolex's knowledge is still stuck in the past nineties, are that ROLEX is the princess's watch. Because in the past years of the golden age of the road, there are many black subjects of the film often use gold and so on, perhaps because rolex uk rarely share their own brand history and product culture related. However, as long as the Rolex has more research on the watch fans will slowly find, in fact, Rolex is not as people think that "soil", it also has its own unique taste and quality adhere to. Submarine series ROLEX has always been to adhere to the precision and durability of the most basic requirements for the design, never like to create more complex style watches, the general function of the complex watches rarely appear in the store, in addition to Dietong Na series that this simple Of the watch is the Rolex family in the pillars, which submarine series of watches is the most well-known classic watch. In 2016, N factory launched V7 version of the water ghosts popular in the north and south, a reference to N plant V7, we will immediately think of Rolex black water ghost and green water ghost, but N plant V7 version far more than this few water ghost , Xiaobian today to give you a detailed description of friends, N factory V7 in the end which several watches. Comments: Rolex Blackwater Ghost low-key without losing introverted, not only has a strong luminous function, but also has a good sealing and stability, are N plant one of the five artifacts, sales have been among the best, but a bit rotten street. Comments: green water ghost modeling is very fashionable and high-profile, but also a lot of fans are keen on the style of the watch, even the female man is also captivated, most people difficult to control, is one of the N factory five artifacts, sales are very high The Comments: ROELX blue water ghost's popularity has not been high, not many people wear, be regarded as a very low-key watch. But that touch of blue also won a lot of watch fans, both highlight the charm of the ocean, but also fully embodies the steady gentleman style and low-key fashion style. Comments: no calendar ghosts from the overall appearance of the continuation of the classic Rolex style, subtle changes in the brand also reflects the ingenuity of the brand. The famous American movie star Will Smith with the models, the shape is very close to the black water ghosts. Comments: Ghost King of the gradual charm of the grave naturally, the disk from the blue over to the black, to the watch into the fresh vitality and extraordinary significance, suitable for large wrist watch fans wear. Comments: Black Ghost King Oyster Case, with a one-way rotating ceramic outer ring, equipped with anti-scratch sapphire crystal glass lens, the lens thickness of 5 mm, domineering side leakage, great playability. Comments: This is a green water devil SUB special edition of the N plant on the majority of fans of the warm feedback, but the counter is not a green diamond ring ghosts. Far away shiny and moving, near to see Tsui around beads Wai, the value of the ghost than the green ghost, very worthy of everyone to start. Comments: explorer type Ⅱ series is N factory recently launched V7 version, the biggest bright spot is to amend the order of the GMT needle. This is Rolex for the enthusiastic adventure of the watch fans carefully designed watches, even if wearing a strenuous exercise is also no problem. Comments: This white disc explorer type Ⅱ series watch, 3 o'clock for the calendar to enlarge the display window, at 6 o'clock position, 9 o'clock position and 12 o'clock triangular scale, and 24-hour bezel of Arabic numerals Scale design, are one by one highlight the readability of the watch and ornamental. Comments: This air bully series of watches, belonging to the pilot type of watch, but also Rolex only a pilot watch, Rolex is the entry-level preferred.

We talk a lot about "biotope-inspired" aesthetics in our world. What does this mean? From our viewpoint, it's about making your aquarium look a bit more like a "slice of the bottom"; in this instance, one of the many Amazonian headwater rainforest streams that you'll find in Peru. This pack was inspired by images we've seen of the Rio Madre de Dios, a typical rainforest stream- with a soft, sandy bottom covered in decaying vegetation, including leaves, seed pods, bark, and other botanical materials. The lighting is fairly dim, save an occasional break in the forest canopy, so you won't find much in the way of plants in this stream, save a few Echinodorus.
Home to an abundance of characins, catfish, and cichlids, it's a perfect biotope to model! And, since that's our thing, we figured that we'd take some of the difficulty out of choosing which aquatic botanicals to use, and assemble a cool selection of small pieces that we think evoke the appearance of this environment.
This cool pack includes 4 leaf-like "Terra Sorrindo", 5 "Teardrop Pods", 5 "Coco Curls", 10 Nano Catappa leaves, 6 delicate "Flor Rio" pods, and 2 exotic specimens of Catappa bark. It's sufficient to give a nice look to aquariums up to about 40 gallons. You might want want to supplement this pack with some of your "a la carte" favorites from our site if you have a larger tank, or if you're looking for a more "dense" look. Pair this collection with some natural colored sand, a couple of nice pieces of Manzanita, and you're good to go!
All in all, "Riacho de Mata" is a great pack that will help you create your own interpretation of a dynamic, rainforest stream ! And...it comes in the uber-cool Tannin jute bag!
All of these items require some preparation before use, as outlined in our "Aquatic Botanical Preparation" section.
NOTE: As these are natural products, the exact appearance of the items you receive will differ slightly from this shown in the photo. The photo serves to give you an idea of what to expect.
ADDITIONAL NOTE: From time to time, we may substitute 2 "Ceu Fruta" for the Catappa Bark, as it is not always available.
All of our aquatic botanicals are intended for ornamental aquarium or terrarium use only. Please use common sense and take the time to boil or soak all botanicals prior to using them, to reduce the possibility of problems. Always go slow when introducing any botanicals into your systems, so you can judge the effect they have on your fishes and plants. They are not intended for human consumption. DO NOT INGEST!
*Flat rate shipping $9.00 for all orders under $75.00 in the U.S.A. Orders $75.00 and over ship FREE in the U.S.A! WE SHIP INTERNATIONALLY! Please review our "Shipping" section for the latest information!

Mechanisms of epileptogenesis: a convergence on neural circuit dysfunction
Ethan M. Goldberg1 & Douglas A. Coulter1 About the authors
Epilepsy is a prevalent neurological disorder associated with significant morbidity and mortality, but the only available drug therapies target its symptoms rather than the underlying cause. The process that links brain injury or other predisposing factors to the subsequent emergence of epilepsy is termed epileptogenesis. Substantial research has focused on elucidating the mechanisms of epileptogenesis so as to identify more specific targets for intervention, with the hope of preventing epilepsy before seizures emerge. Recent work has yielded important conceptual advances in this field. We suggest that such insights into the mechanisms of epileptogenesis converge at the level of cortical circuit dysfunction.

Because I'm vegan I decide every day, every meal, to put my own ethical and moral beliefs about animal agriculture and the way animals are treated above something that tastes or looks good. No amount of tasting or looking good is worth animal suffering, in my eyes.
The way animals are treated in order for us to eat them or wear them genuinely makes my heart hurt. We wouldn't dream of treating cats or dogs in that manner, in fact it's a criminal act to do so. It's such a double standard that because a cow is a cow, a pig is a pig and a lamb is a lamb, society says it's OK to rape, torture and mutilate them. If you ask me it's totally backwards and looking back now I find it hard to fathom how I thought it was OK for the first 25 years of my life. How I didn't question the morality of it more. You see at the time, I thought I had questioned the morality of it and that I was OK with it. But the thing is I wasn't really questioning the morality. I didn't really see what was happening. I didn't really hear what was happening. I thought I did but now I know that I really, really didn't.
For me, as I've said before, it was Vegucated that lit the first spark. Vegucated made me really see the suffering for the first time. And just like that I was vegetarian. Literally just like that. I opened my mind and let it in and I knew from that point that I just couldn't be a part of it anymore.
Even as a vegetarian I had maintained that I could never go vegan. But hey, I was a hard and fast carnivore that dropped meat overnight, stranger things have happened. And they did, because I decided to just try veganism for Veganuary. I was just going to try it, with the thought that if it didn't really impact on my life then I would stay vegan, because if it didn't impact on my life then there was really no excuse not to stay vegan.
AND HEY GUESS WHAT?! It didn't really impact on my life! What a turn up for the books. So that was it, all my excuses for why I still chomped on chicken periods and cow lactation gone. I couldn't see any more reasons not to be vegan. I couldn't stand with society in saying that it was OK anymore. And honestly, I'm am SO PROUD to be vegan. I'm so proud that I stick by what I believe in. I'm so proud that I make a positive choice not just for the animals, but for myself and for the planet every damn day.
By nature, I'm not really an activist. I'm not the type of person to stand on a street corner and shout about why you should be vegan (yet, again stranger things have happened). It's far easier for me to type this out than to talk it out. And so, for me, this is my way of sharing my thoughts and feelings with the world.
However, please let it be known that just because I'm vegan, it doesn't mean that I feel my views and my thoughts and feelings are superior to yours. We are all capable of making up our own mind and making our own choices and I'm cool with that. I have no intent to be "preachy", but if my talking about veganism bothers you I think you need to reconsider why you feel so offended by it. I'm not going to apologise if it makes you feel uncomfortable, because that's your feeling so you need to own it find out why that is. I just want to encourage you to really see before you make your choice.
If anyone who reads this is interested in veganism or even just reducing the amount of animal products that you consume then there are a huge range of resources out there. Some of the films/videos I've found helpful are Vegucated, Forks Over Knives, Dairy Is Scary (warning, this is pretty traumatic however definitely highlights the very harsh reality of the dairy industry), Cowspiracy and the brand new vegan mockumentary Carnage. Many of these films are available to watch for free via Netflix, BBC iPlayer and Youtube and I'm sure there are many, many more out there.
Because I'm vegan I'm standing up for animals and saying it's not OK to abuse them for our benefit. Because I'm vegan I feel that I am helping to make a difference. Choose love. Choose compassion.

Reverse Hair Loss without Surgery at Koher Medical
Whether you have an aversion to surgery or would like to try less invasive techniques to treat your hair loss, Koher Medical offers solutions to restore fuller hair in both men and women. With more than 25 years of experience in the hair restoration industry, you can be sure you're receiving the most efficient treatment for your individual condition.
Koher Medical is available to provide the following nonsurgical restoration options from our offices:
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and ACell technology. This refers to a series of injections that can restore hair loss in both men and women. PRP is a solution that comes from using the healing plasma of your own blood, while ACell refers to proteins that are used to strengthen compromised or weakened hair follicles. Treatments will need to be scheduled a few times a year, but results have been very promising.
- Low Level Laser Therapy. This works to stimulate hair growth over your entire scalp through a series of therapeutic light pulses. There is no increased risk to the patient, and the procedure generally results in a thicker, healthier, fuller head of hair.
- Propecia/Finasteride. Propecia, also known as Finasteride, is a daily medication that combats hair loss for males and is particularly effective at restoring hair loss at the top of the head. Women may also take this drug, although it is not recommended if they are pregnant. Patients typically see results in as little as three months.
- Rogaine/Minoxidil. A topical solution that can assist both men and women with hair regrowth. Minoxidil, however, doesn't just add hair — it has been shown to reverse the effects of hereditary hair loss, as it thickens and strengthens hair follicles when used on a consistent basis. It's often combined with other treatments to maximize effectiveness.
- Sure Thik Topik. Comprised of proteins that act like hair fibers, this builds onto your current hair to add volume and coverage. It is available in a variety of colors and may be useful to those who have recently undergone a hair transplant.
Trust Your Hair Regrowth to Koher Medical
With offices in High Point, Mebane and Charlotte, NC, as well as Cockeysville, MD; Greenville, SC; and Harrisburg, PA, we strive to be as convenient as possible for our hair loss clients. Don't hide your thinning hair any longer — get the results you dream of with Koher Medical. Call our offices today at 888-516-2850 or contact us online to request a free consultation.
Koher Medical offers nonsurgical hair restoration treatments to patients in NC, SC, PA and MD.

CES 2017: The World's First Smart Hairbrush from L'Oréal
At the CES 2017, L'Oréal unveils the world's first smart hairbrush, which basically aims to make you more presentable.
the time has come for hairbrushes to become smart, developed using Withings technology, the Kerastase Hair Coach has a bunch of integrated sensors, such as an accelerometer and gyroscope. They detect if the hair is wet or dry to adapt the brushing and we even find an integrated microphone to captures the hair's soundwaves.
Through its mobile application, users will be able to follow the evolution of their hair by providing hair analyses. It will alert you if you brush too hard, for not damaging your hair. It will also vibrate.
this brush will be available by mid-2017 and will cost $200.
