I spoke with you a while ago about mortons neuroma and you said to let you know how I was getting on. I started with 2×3 for two weeks, then 2×2 for some weeks, and on the ninth week I became aware that there was no pain in my foot whilst walking.
Having spent months wearing trainers and flat boots I am now able to wear a variety of shoes without being in excruciating pain. The hospital offered removal of the neuroma (with complications), or steroidal injections, (which may not necessarily work). I declined both treatments. It is probably about three months now that I have been taking 2×2 and I wonder whether to continue or reduce the dosage. I have a follow-up appointment at the hospital in July, but am confident that it has actually disappeared!
"I would be grateful for your advice. Many thanks.Dear Ann, Thank you for sharing the feedback, it is really important to help others. I would advise to keep taking serrapeptase at least 2 per day until you get the all-clear from the hospital. I take it just for anti-aging and so it is up to you when you stop after that.
Stay healthy, Robert Kind regards"

Thanks to Rich Bozanich, one of the organizers up the upcoming Early Memory Loss Forum, for sending a link to a New York Times article "Zen and the Art of Coping With Alzheimer's. " The point of the article is that caregivers must learn to "go with the flow," since neither scientists nor politicians have done much about Alzheimer's.
The second article, "Exhaustion, anger of caregiving get a name," is on CNN's web site, and is about the growing recognition of the mental and physical health problems caused by caregiving. The article quotes Peter Vitaliano, a professor at the University of Washington who studies caregiver health. If you'd like more details, I wrote about Dr. Vitaliano's work in a post last summer.

Peanut-Free/Nut-Free Directory
Our directory is intended as a resource for people with peanut and nut allergies. It contains foods, helpful products, and much more.
Moe's is a rapidly growing very casual southwestern grill. They make everything fresh, eg wrap up your burrito to order in front of you. It's become one of our faves.
Our son was recently diagnosed w/ peanut allergies, so we've been checking out the restaurants we frequent.
Moes HQ and the local manager both said they don't have any nuts in the restaurant.
Oops, can you tell I'm new.
This post should have gone in the restaurants forum.
Where are they located? Is there more than one location? Website?
Everyone has the right to my opinion!
The website is [url="http://www.moes.com,"]www.moes.com,[/url] and they list their locations there by state.
They started in GA, I believe, and have a strong SE presence, but looking at their list, it seems they've grown into a lot of national markets.
They're similar to Salsa Fresh, or Qudoba.
Hey, we're getting 6 in the Boston area! Do you know if they are committed to remaining peanut free? I'd hate for them to end up like other places that were once peanut/tree nut free, like Pizzaria Uno's, only to add goopy peanut butter desserts to their menu.
Try this link: [url="http://www.moes.com/"]http://www.moes.com/[/url]
[This message has been edited by Heather2 (edited August 30, 2004).]
We had a Baja Fresh in our area that closed, and we have not had mexican since. I with we had a choice! We have a few Qdoba's but they have not returned my calls or emails. Does anyone know about Qdoba? I wish we had a Moes!
I was driving to a drugstore today and noticed a new restaurant in our area- Moe's! Wow! I am so excited!
We just got two outside of Albany, NY. They're the best. So far they are peanut free. The food is terrific. I always get the I Said Posse, it's a veggie quesidela.

I want to get a personal loan from the bank so that I can install a top line security system in my home. The top of the line home security system is a must in today's violent world. Home security systems are there to discourage a thief from entering into your home. Recently I moved into an area that unknown to me had a very high rate of break-ins. It was a fact that there would be at least one home per week broken into.
Must Read: Chicago Which is my home town. If you want the very best home security specialist in the Chicago area, Go to Protection Services Website. Excellent home security firm.
At the time of this writing there had been no injuries due to break-ins because the thieves broke in when there was no one in the homes or businesses. However, it would be just a matter of time before a robber encountered a homeowner while trying to break in to their home. If that occurred then something more serious might occur. That is why I am going downtown to get a personal loan from the bank to have my home security system installed. With the best home security system I will make sure that my home and my family are well protected.
It was interesting to note however, that all of the homes that have displayed a home security system sign, are the homes that the robbers have avoided breaking into. When you think about it, it makes perfect sense that a robber would choose a home that was not protected by a security firm. The robber simple chooses the easier target, the homes that are not protected by security alarms.
A good security systems company should be well known for their attention to every little detail when it comes to providing protection for your home and for your family. When you have a security systems representative visit your home for a free in-home evaluation, he will discuss all of the latest and up to date home security systems that are available. I am so happy that I have decided to have a top line security system installed in my home. I feel so much more secure than before I had such a system.
When you choose a security company, choose one that is both honest and reliable. They should also offer home packages that are affordable. They should be able to answer all of the following questions. If they can, then you know that you are dealing with a very reputable and experienced company.
There are general system questions that need to be answered such as why is there false detections with my motion sensor? I have call waiting on my phone line. Can that affect my service? Why is there a display of "no ac" on my keypad? Will VOIP work with my security system? Or, how does my alarm system work?
Other general questions may include why does the alarm seem to take a long time to notify control central? What is an undefined signal? If I lose electric power, will my alarm system still work? Why is my system not communicating correctly? Why does my keypad display "not ready"? Or, if I accidentally press the fire alarm or panic button on the touch pad, what will happen?
Then there are these service questions that need to be asked and answered. What should I do if my technician does not show up as scheduled? Who do I call for Alarm Monitoring Issues? If there is a problem, can you turn my system off from the offices? My alarm went by accident and I entered the security code and shut the alarm off. I thought that there would be a call, but there was not. Why wasn't there one? Who do I call to Schedule Service for my Security System? What if my system isn't working right?
Plus you should know the answers to these questions. Why does my system show that control central is "still working on it"? If there is an emergency, should I call control central first?
If you ask your sales rep all of these questions and he can get you adequate answers then you know that you have found a company that will provide you with good service.

Alternatively, clairvoyant healing comes really affordable and if you visit an authentic good clairvoyant, there are great chances of dealing with your illness with the earliest.

'The Israeli government has reportedly submitted a formal request for the US to agree to an additional $700 million in military funding, above and beyond the massive amount already allocated, to pay for the Iron Dome and Magic Wand missile defense systems.
This request is above and beyond the money the Pentagon was already seeking for Israel's Iron Dome system, as the short range missiles, which were largely unsuccessful during the recent Gaza Strip attacks. The Israeli government wants to expand the number of batteries available.
The Iron Dome system was initially defunded by the Israeli military in 2010, when they decided it was not cost effective. The US immediately approved full funding for it. Now, the US is liable to be on the hook for the Magic Wand system as well.'
'A prominent political analyst says that members of the anti-government "Free Syria Army" are not defected army personnel but militants backed, funded and armed by the United States, Israel, and Turkey.
In an article published on Global Research website on November 20, Thailand-based geopolitical expert Tony Cartalucci cited a report released by the International Institute for Strategic Studies stating that Syria's opposition is armed and prepared to drag the country into more violence.
"The report comes in sharp contrast to the propaganda fed via the corporate-media and the West's foreign ministers on a daily basis, where the violence is portrayed as one-sided, with Syria's President Bashar al-Assad 'gunning down' throngs of peaceful, placard waving protesters," Cartalucci wrote.'
'Visa, Mastercard and PayPal all enable donations to be made to US-registered groups funding illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank in defiance of international law.
It appears at least one of the major credit cards also enables donations to an extremist Jewish group that has placed a bounty on the lives of Palestinians.
All three have in the last week ceased enabling donations to WikiLeaks. Neither Mastercard nor Visa have explained the basis for their decision to do so. PayPal has backed away from its initial claim that the US State Department told PayPal WikiLeaks had broken the law after the claim was discredited. This is the third occasion on which PayPal has suspended payment services for WikiLeaks.
Israel subsidises over 100 settlements in the West Bank in defiance of international law. Another 100+ are "illegal outposts" even under Israeli law. All benefit from extensive support from the United States, channelled through a range of Jewish and right-wing Christian bodies, all of which have charitable status under US law. The International Crisis Group's report on settlements in July 2009 identified the important role played by US charities. Israeli newspaper Haaretz has investigated the strong support provided via US charities, and Israeli peace groups have also targeted the generous support provided via private donations from the US and Canada.
Credit card transactional systems play a key role in facilitating this support for illegal settlements. Here are some examples.'
Punished for Palestine: 'UNESCO will survive US cuts' (by RussiaToday)
'Palestine has, for the first time ever, received recognition by a UN body - its cultural arm has accepted it as a fully-fledged member. But this decision comes at a price for UNESCO - with the U.S. cutting its funding to the organisation, which represents almost a quarter of its budget. Ramzy Baroud, editor at the http://palestinechronicle.com , thinks Washington's move is unfair, but says UNESCO will survive.'
Poverty Trap: Budgets bite as EU homeless go hungry (by RussiaToday)
'Greece remains the epicentre of the EU debt crisis with international creditors still unsure about handing Athens another cash injection. While in meantime, a new survey suggests the debt burden is literally killing Greeks pushing them to drug dependence and even suicide. And the economic crunch is likely to take its toll on citizens of other European states as RT's Daniel Bushell explains.'
Facebook CIA connection (by Anarchitext)
'Do you have a facebook?
First ask about the funding
Follow the money trail…
This video reveals the true aim of the Facebook conspiracy: Data mining for the CIA
The connection between Facebook & DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) has some grotesque tentacles: the Information Awareness Office (IAO); TIA (Total Information Awareness, renamed Terrorism Information Program); and TIPS (Terrorism Information and Prevention System).
But as bad as the beginning of Facebook is, the parallels between the CIA's backing of Google's dream of becoming "the mind of God," and the CIA's funding of Facebook's goal of knowing everything about everybody is anything but benign.'
'Here's an interesting article from the Washington Post about the heavy influence of the Pentagon on the funding and production of Hollywood movies, making them a little more than propaganda disguised as entertainment.'

VAN WERT, Ohio (AP) -- Dust-covered boxes of candy are stacked on shelves inside the movie theater lobby. The popcorn machine sits empty below a shredded ceiling that reveals wiring and twisted metal.
Not much has changed inside the Van Wert Cinemas since a year ago when it took a direct hit from a monster tornado. Quick thinking by the theater's manager who moved people to safety saved countless lives.
Disputes and delays with insurers and the government, though, have kept owner Jim Boyd from rebuilding. "It's kind of difficult for us to see it all torn up while everyone around us is rebuilding," said Boyd, who also lost his home in the twister.
Little other physical damage remains from the storm that tore a 100-mile path through northwest Ohio on Nov. 10, 2002. What's left in many places are emotional wounds. "There's a lot of mental scars yet," said Port Clinton Mayor Tom Brown, whose town along Lake Erie had 89 homes destroyed or damaged but suffered no major injuries. "You can't measure what these people had to go through. Some people can't even talk about what they had to go through."
A neighborhood along the lake where most of the damage occurred in Port Clinton shows few signs of the destruction. Homes have been rebuilt and trees have been replanted. "It is just a miracle because we're almost totally rebuilt," Brown said. "That's my pride and joy right now."
Throughout the state, five people died in the storm that spawned tornadoes with winds topping 200 mph. It was one of the most expensive weather disasters in the state's history.
Van Wert, near the Indiana state line, was the hardest hit. "Anytime it thunders, people are very leery around here," said Rick McCoy, director of Van Wert County's emergency management office. Four business were destroyed and five were damaged in the town's industrial park. Near the theater, eight houses were ruined.
A couple of new houses have popped up since, but the theater remains closed. "I foolishly thought we would be rebuilding last spring," Boyd said. "It really has been a major headache." He found out the property was underinsured and then fought numerous delays trying to secure a loan from the Small Business Administration. On top of that, he was living with his wife, Joyce, in a rental home and trying to find a new house. "You can't get a peaceful rest because you know there are hundreds of things you need to do," he said. "I'm not complaining. It's just a fact of life."
The tornado ripped away part of the steel-framed theater's walls and roof, tossing three cars into the front of a theater that had been filled with children watching "The Santa Clause 2" minutes earlier. Theater manager Scott Shaffer and other employees herded about 50 people into a brick hallway and restrooms just as the tornado hit. A half-hour earlier, the theater had been packed, but most people had just left as two movies ended. Only two people had minor injuries. "That was such a relief," Boyd said. "Everything else was easy to deal with. All things considered, we were very fortunate."
Twisted sheet-metal from the roof is still wrapped in tree limbs next to the building. Inside, whipping wind and clanking metal echo throughout the theater. A group of local residents have helped raise money to rebuild the theater, the only one in town. And just more than a week ago, Boyd found out that the Small Business Administration closed on his loan of $947,000 to rebuild the theater. Boyd, 54, now hopes to reopen next May. "If I live to see the end of it, it will be worth it," he said.

Research Interests
Cell signaling refers to the process by which a signal, such as a growth factor or an environmental stress, on the cell surface is converted into a specific cellular response. This process is mediated by various intracellular signaling pathways. Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases are key signal-transducing enzymes that are responsible for the regulation of many cellular responses, such as changes in gene expression, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The research projects in my laboratory are broadly related to the study of molecular mechanisms by which endothelial cells assemble into blood vessels. We are particularly interested in the roles of p38 MAP kinases in the regulation of endothelial cell physiology and vascular biology. Our research utilizes various biochemical, molecular, and cellular approaches. By manipulating the expression and activity level of p38 MAP kinases, we have been investigating their functions in two different experimental models: 1) in conventional 2-dimensional (2D) cell culture dishes where cell proliferation, cell adhesion, and apoptosis are analyzed, 2) in 3D cell culture matrices made of extracellular matrix components where endothelial cells migrate, elongate, and coalesce to form tube structures, mimicking the steps of blood vessel formation in vivo. Our research has recently expended to the use of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) as an in vitro differentiation model to study endothelial cell differentiation and vascular development.
We are also actively engaged in interdisciplinary collaborative research. In collaboration with Dr. Faqing Huang (Dept of Chemistry and Biochemistry) whose lab has developed a novel folate receptor [FR]-based siRNA delivery strategy specific to cancer cells, we are using folate-conjugated siRNA to target cancer cell markers. We expect that this strategy may specifically inhibit tumor cell growth, thus could be potentially used for the development of siRNA-based cancer therapy. In collaboration with Dr. Joshua Otaigbe (School of Polymer Sciences) whose group has extensive experience in synthesizing poly-urethane based biocompatible polymers, we have fabricated 3-demisional synthetic polymer matrices that support cell growth. We are now developing the methods that can direct stem cells differentiating to endothelial cells in synthetic biopolymer matrices, which may be used for vascular tissue engineering.

Hidden Rush
This afternoon we brought two recent local finds to join their flavors together and do some cooking together in the kitchen. Logan Robbins is a tall piece of San Diego delight. At 6'2, Logan is �straight� 100%. We even found out Logan has a wife, when he went over to our brother site ExtraBigDicks.com. After seeing Logan and that thick dick on our site, the boys on ExtraBigDicks wanted some of that and who can blame them? Logan has amazing dark features set against his pale skin and a hateful club of a dick he uses quite well. Logan is, as he says, 'straight' but�has lived with a tranny and the more we see him, more sordid details seem to surface. He does �Gay for Pay� because as long as he's doing it for money he's not �gay� Whatever gets you through the night, Cutie. Today his �wife�, one he finally admitted marrying for money & has only kissed once, is at Disneyland waiting for him and riding Space Mountain alone; while Logan is riding a hotter ride��Ass Mount'n�. Sorry, couldn't resist. Jherrad got his start on EBD and is also from San Diego. He's compact, defined and a Latin hottie. He is �gay� 100% and jokes about breaking into the �Str8 for Pay� market even if he'd be the only one trying. Funny how that only works one way with str8 boys able to allow themselves their guilty pleasure for pay, justified in silver. Hmmm. Fortunately, just looking at Jherrad assures us he wouldn't stand a chance playing straight in a school play; let alone straight porn so we can all breath a sigh of relief, sit back and watch him in his natural element�an all male, all cock, pussy free one! Jherrad's about to get more than his stocking stuffed this Christmas. Making out these two begin exploring each other. Logan wastes little time before unwrapping his present, s he pulls off Jherrad' tee and undoes his shorts to free his thick cock. Jherrad has an all over golden tan that most would envy. Logan may be str8 but he loves oral and is usually the first thing on his list. Jherrad lets Logan suck his cock for a few before wanting a better look at what landed Logan on EBD in the first place. He kneels and undoes Logan's jeans and as he does, Logan's huge cock springs out and Jherrad swallows it without a second thought. Logan just moans as Jherrad spit-shines his thick meat as he swallows it to the hilt and comes back off it again to lick and tease it before sliding it back down his throat. Logan is getting hornier by the minute and finally pulls Jherrad off his 8�� meat and bends him over the counter. He gets down and spreads Jherrad's muscular, bronzed cheeks wide before diving in tongue first. Jherrad is in heaven as this straight boy begins to expertly toss his salad. All this tongue action is making Jherrad need a lot more and Logan is more than happy to oblige. After giving his sweet ass a few last licks, Logan stands up and grabs Jherrad by the waist as he begins sliding his cock deep into the spit lubed hole he just got through eating. Jherrad moans as his ass is stretched wide by Logan's baby maker. It isn't long before Logan is fucking Jherrad deep as he grunts with every thrust h e takes. Logan holds him down with one hand as he leans back and watches his thick white dick disappear into Jherrad's dark tanned ass. Logan can't get enough and lies on the floor to let Jherrad do the work. Jherrad bounces up and down on his fat cock as his face contorts in both pleasure and pain. Logan's heavy balls are slowly pulling up as Logan begins fucking up into out latin bonbon. Jherrad braces himself with the counter as he continues riding Logan's fat cock. From there Logan puts him on his back and pounds his ass deep and hard missionary. This position sends them both over the edge as Logan and Jherrad both sit on the floor seconds before exploding all over themselves. �That was the best fuck I've ever had� pants Logan as he recovers. Kudos for Jherrad and it was definitely one of his hottest with us.

Ashana @ Busy Bodies
When: Sat Nov 17th
6:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Where: Busy Bodies | 70 Industry Road | Marstons Mills
Just back from her Japan tour and currently leading Spirit Voyage's 40-day global Sadhana, ASHANA brings her unique crystal sound to the Cape for one night only: Saturday, November 17th in Marstons Mills.
Weaving together soaring angelic vocals and the celestial sound of crystal singing bowls, Spirit Voyage artist Ashana's original sound is the forefront of an entirely new genre of healing music. Named "a shining star in New Age music!" by Jordan Rich (CBS Radio Boston), Ashana has received worldwide acclaim for her extraordinary blend of Western and ethnic instruments with the unique drone of the crystal singing bowls, along with mantra, chant and song, creating a harmonic fusion that provides the ultimate transcendent music for healing, relaxation and meditation.
Busy Bodies will host Ashana's "Crystalline Activation Ceremony for Profound Manifestation and Healing." This one-of-a-kind experience will be held on Saturday, November 17 from 6:15pm-9:30pm at Busy Bodies, 70 Industry Road, Marstons Mills, MA 02648. Tickets and full details for all dates are available online at www.AshanaMusic.com.
Ashana's "Crystalline Activation Ceremony " is a powerful and highly interactive evening that opens a floodgate of divine energies, pouring tremendous light into the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual bodies. The result is a deep clearing and realignment with your innate soul blueprint and connection with your Higher Self. Profoundly relaxing and peaceful, this sound meditation and candlelight ceremony is a time to create and hold powerful intentions in sacred space accompanied by the resonant healing vibrations of over 40 master alchemy crystal singing bowls.
Ashana's new CD, "The Illuminated Path," has just been released and is already receiving rave reviews. This amazing work consists of 2 thirty-minute, interactive meditations designed for self-healing. These stunningly beautiful tracks inspire the listener to sail through life's challenges with ease and grace.
Ashana is thrilled that Spirit Voyage asked her to lead their 40-day Global Sadhana which began on October 9th. This is a worldwide event involving thousands of people in 75 countries doing a group sadhana for 40 days and will feature Ashana's "Hari Nam Sat Nam" from The Illuminated Path.
Listeners the world over describe Ashana's live music events as "ecstatic," "profoundly healing," "breathtakingly beautiful" and "indescribable joy." Join Ashana for a magical evening of sacred chant, song, and mystical poetry accompanied by keyboards and vibrant world percussion. Ashana's exquisite new renditions of sacred chant, mantra and song from the world's traditions have the power to carry you literally to the angelic realms, transporting you to transcendent states of deep peace and inner healing on the gentlest waves of devotion and compassion.
Classically trained, with a degree in Voice from the prestigious Mannes College of Music in New York City, Ashana rose to the very top of the healing music genre with her first three CD recordings, "All Is Forgiven," "Jewels of Silence," and "Beloved." Her last release, "The Infinite Heart," was well-received by critics and called "a must-have for every CD collection!". Her intuitive vocal improvisations and masterful crystal bowl playing are featured in the documentary film "The Sound You Feel: Vibrations of Healing," released by Beyond Words. Ashana travels across the US, Canada and abroad offering concerts, crystalline activations and sound healing workshops.
"Music is a blessing, a prayer, and a healing when it comes deeply from the heart," says Ashana. "Music can transport us, lift us to the place where we gently let go and open to receive, reflect and remember the Love we truly Are. And as we begin to rest in this Love, our world is transformed. We see beauty in everything. And Heaven becomes fully present in every moment, right here on Earth."
