Good 'N Natural - Holy Basil 450 mg. - 60 Capsules
Good 'N Natural - Holy Basil 450 mg. The Tradition of Holy Basil Holy Basil, known as Ocimum sanctum in Latin, has for thousands of years been revered as "Tulsi" in Ayurvedic medicine. "Tulsi" means "The Incomparable One", which is the reality of this majestic herb. When in New Delhi, we visited with the leader of India's Ayurvedic Medical Association. We asked that "vaidya", or Ayurvedic master, why Holy Basil is considered the Mother Medicine of Nature in his tradition. He replied that Holy Basil is "anti-mutagenic and anti-inflammatory". It is, he said, a "rasayana", or an herb that on its own nourishes a person's growth to perfect health and enlightenment. We asked why people in the West find that Holy Basil promotes a positive stress response and elevates their spirit, and he replied that "Holy Basil delivers nutrients to the mind necessary for the experience of enlightenment."
Good 'N Natural - Holy Basil 450 mg Contains:
We therefore are proud to deliver the finest Holy Basil in the world, grown without chemical pesticides or fertilizers in pristine meadows bordering the Himalayas, and extracted with supercritical potency and purity in our laboratory in Germany. To Enlightenment!
Scientific Confirmation of Traditional Wisdom Phytonutrients within Holy Basil are some of the most prized molecules in the plant pharmacy. To make a drug from Holy Basil, pharmaceutical companies could deliver those molecules in an isolated form, but that would no longer be the infinitely complex Holy Basil treasured by traditional medicine. At New Chapter, therefore, we deliver the wisdom of Holy Basil in its most complete herbal form. We are, of course, also respectful of those "prized molecules", and delivers in Potency Assured™ levels the five best known "active" molecules: Caryophyllene, Ursolic Acid, Rosmarinic Acid, Eugenol, and Oleanolic Acid.The scientific world is giving heed to these molecules. In the United States, researchers have determined that Holy Basil's "active" molecules include potent COX-2 inhibiting anti-inflammatories. These "active" molecules' cell protective properties have been studied with respect to cells of the breast and oral cavity (United States), colon (China), prostate (Korea), skin (Hungary), and liver (Korea).* They have also been studied worldwide for their effects on apoptosis and proliferation.

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.
I'm new here... and looking for safe tree nut butters for my peanut-allergic son. Are there any? His peanut allergy is not severe, and he seems to do fine with almonds and cashews. He's 2 1/2, by the way. We've done Trader Joe's Sunflower butter, which is great, but I'm just looking for an alternative to that.
Biased POV?
We like IM Healthy's Soy nut butter's, especially honey chunky.
When dealing with a PA, most folks avoid nuts.
[b]* Obsessed * [/b]
[b]* Beyond Obsessed * [/b]
Since kids aren't supposed to be exposed to peanuts or treenuts until they're at least three years old, and your son has already shown that he has a tendency to become allergic to foods, have you considered keeping him away from nuts until he's older, when it will be safer for him to eat these highly allergenic foods?
It might be worth considering. (And keeping him away from shellfish until he's older would be a good idea, too.)
Just a thought.
We grind our own. My PA is adult onset and my allergist feels it's a cross-reaction with soy (anaphylactic), in my case. I do just fine with cashews and almonds and macademia nuts.
When buying a PB sub, though, I opt for sunflower seed butter.

Nancy Spero
A known feminist and anti-war activist, Nancy Spero decided to make women the sole subject of her artwork since 1976. Now, Spero's repertoire of female figures run, dance, crawl, tumble, and strut across the page in the exhibition From Victimage to Liberation: Works from the 1980s & 1990s at Galerie Lelong. This rarely-seen selection of Spero's collaged narratives shows women transformed from historical contexts of suffering and subordination into protagonists in charge their own destinies.
The exhibition opens to the public today, January 2, 2013. Don't miss the opening reception, which will take place on January 10, 2013, at Galerie Lelong.

Category: Bars and Clubs
Region: Pomona
Something better beginning in Long Beach: The good people at the Glass House have hooked into the Art Theatre on Retro Row and are starting to bring big-name all-ages sets to the heart of the city. (If we get a Coachella secret show there, our tiny mind will be blown.) And this particular show really raises the bar: the extremely extravagant band of Montreal, who do everything-is-possible psychedelic dance-pop insanity with the kind of stage show one day destined for a Vegas strip revue. (MTV said their set-up rivaled Madonna, and Of Montreal pulled that off on like 8% of the budget, too.) They've got a new album on deck for a fall release, so expect even more of the unexpected than usual, and say hi to the horse if they bring one!

The Homemakers Health Services is a full service, charitable health care agency which provides compassionate, professional, comprehensive and cost effective visiting nurses, physical, occupational and speech therapies, home health, home support, adult medical day care services and community wellness programs to adults throughout Strafford and parts of Carroll and Rockingham Counties in NH.
Your Care - Your Choice. You have a choice as to who provides you with home care services. For compassionate, professional care, choose The Homemakers Health Services of NH.
The Homemakers Now Offering Behavioral Health Services
When you think of home health care, you probably think of a visiting nurse caring for a physical injury, but at The Homemaker's Health Services, we do more than treat the body. At The Homemaker's we recognize that mental health is just as important to your well-being as your physical health.
So many adults with conditions like cardiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, Parkinson's and people that have had a stroke or suffer chronic pain, are much more likely to develop depression and anxiety - and roughly half of these people are home bound.
That's why we're excited about expanding our home care services to include Behavioral Health. Our fully trained nurses now treat multiple psychiatric concerns including depression, anxiety and mental confusion. And like all of the services we provide at The Homemakers, our Behavioral Health Services focus on holistic care and range from medication oversight to behavioral management.
No matter your health care issue, The Homemaker's is here to support you. We have the expertise to help you, help yourself - so that you can live your best possible life.
For more details call us today at (603) 335-1770 or email us at email@example.com.

Welcomes Joseph Wesley to Skilled Team!

TDIM - Music Release of 'David'
January 11, 2013 @ 00:03 am
This Day In Music, Marks the Music Album release of the Movie - 'David'
Coming to cinemas on the first of February is another action thriller from the director of Shaitan and Rush. Yes, Bejoy Nambiar is back and still seems to be adamant on showing us stories that have wavered plots that are very much anchored in their relevance to present scenarios. We've all seen the trailer of his latest film David that holds promise of being a super hit, but as much as the film's imagery looks tempting; the soundtracks too seem alluring.
The soundtrack of David consists of 15 tracks composed by various artists like, Prashant Pillai and Mikey McCleary, who had worked on Shaitan, and independent bands Bramfatura, Maatibaani and Modern Mafia. One of the tracks would be a new version of the famous traditional Qawwali number "Dama Dam Mast Qalandar". Besides, Tamil film composer Anirudh Ravichander, known for composing viral song "Why This Kolaveri Di", has also contributed one song. In this day in music, the album will be released.

Sunday Slow Grill
This year, during Spring and Summer, Gliffaes Hotel is introducing a new Sunday Slow Grill to be held outside on the terrace once a month on the following days – Sunday 4th May, Sunday 15th June, Sunday 13th July and Sunday 24th August.
Gliffaes, with its nod to Italianate architecture, is trying to recreate Tuscany in Uskany by having a big outdoor Sunday lunch. We've previously done grilled food out on the terrace which proved very popular but we would like to turn this into more of a celebration of good food, good company and good wine for all the family.
As supporters of the Slow Food Movement, we have decided to support their Forgotten Foods campaign. Hopefully we will use a source of meat which is not widely available – at the moment we are talking to Lucy Levinge of Llwyn-on about using Badger Face Welsh Mountain Sheep.
On arrival there will be a selection of appetisers served on the terrace followed by the lamb which will be slow roasted. There will also be marinated venison skewers (sourced from The WelshVenison Centre) and a whole salmon en papillote cooked over hot charcoals. All served with fresh local salads sourced from Primrose Organic Farm near Hay with jacket potatoes and roasted new potatoes. We will not disappoint in the pudding department and we will also have a good selection of local Welsh cheese and with homemade pickles and bread.
We are keeping our fingers crossed for some fine weather so that we can set up 2 big tables of 20 places outside over looking the river. The idea is for everybody attending to mingle, chat and enjoy the food and company – all helped along by a good selection of local beer and cider.
For those that are interested there will be a guided tree walk around Gliffaes grounds in the morning. This will kick off at 11am with lunch starting at 1pm.
Booking is required, so please call reception on 01874 730 371 to reserve your places.
Catering for vegetarians will be provided if you notify us when you book. £27.50 for adults and £12.50 for children 10 and under.
If you fancy combining the Sunday Grill with a light evening meal and an overnight stay, we have come up with an offer – for more details click here.
Dear JamesI have never written to a hotel to praise them before! I cannot begin to tell you what an amazing time I had at your 'Uskany in Tuscany' or was it 'Tuscany in Uskany'? It was so good I thought I was in Italy. Fabulous venue, great tree walk, amazing food and lovely staff. I cannot wait to visit again. Jane Berrow

We got a Dunny-sized taste of Tristan Eaton's work last spring when we released our KidRobot x Skullcandy Mix Master that included his rabbit-eared 3" tall figure all jacked up and chrome-plated. Check the vid.
After pretty much painting everything on the urban landscape, Eaton designed his first toy for Fisher-Price at 18 years old and went on to become a driving force in designer toys. In addition to being a wunderkind who regularly consults for brands such as Hasbro, Pepsi and Nike, Tristan Eaton is president and creative director of Thunderdog Studios. This fall, we've again went back to the well through a collaboration with ARTSPROJEKT who pulled the LA-born street artist, Eaton, into their ranks.
With the launch of the ARTSPROJEKT x Skullcandy collection, we're featuring two of Eaton's works of art on our Grim Weaper Hesh 2 and Sacred Samari Cassette.

Problem is if you add new races you probably have to add a new faction. My idea was always have a neutral faction that can align with either Alliance or Horde depending on how they develop their relationships in the starting areas.
Ideally the faction would consist of:
Tuskarr (they're far cooler than the Vrykul, trust me)
and of course the Pandaren.
The idea for me would be that they'd have more powerful racial abilities, racial limitations, fewer classes, three total I'd think, but one unique class per race. They'd not have the ability to take on any hero classes, since they'd effectively have ones built in.

Pandaren do no actually exist in the WoW lore. They are just a joke thrown in as silly hidden content.
Yeah I know there was one in WC3. It was a silly easter egg, not an actual part of the Warcraft setting.
Don't get me wrong. I'd be happy if they officially made Pandaren part of the lore. I like the flavor of the race and the pandas are some of my favorite heroes in DotA ("We bring PANDAMONIUUUUM!") but they are just not actually in the lore.
Super Guest Man 9000 said...
Friday_Knight, Yeah not so much: http://www.wowwiki.com/Pandaren
They started out as a joke but now are a part of lore.

A very rapidly convergent solution (in the form of a likelihood ratio test) for the problem of detecting a discrete-time stochastic process in additive white Gaussian noise is derived.
This likelihood ratio test is then applied to the problem of moving-target (aircraft) detection by airport surveillance radar systems. Using real radar data, the receiver operating characteristics are obtained for two different adaptive implementations of this likelihood ratio test, and also for the three versions of the Moving Target Detection algorithms presently in use in modern radar systems.
The better of the two adaptive implementations employs Kalman prediction error tapped delay-line filters and attains a minimum of 3 dB average performance improvement relative to the Moving Target Detection algorithms.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - A group of concerned citizens plan to voice their concerns tomorrow morning before Lubbock City Council votes on an ordinance affecting the homeless. If the motion passes, it would illegal to be outside the Mahon Library, civic center, Lubbock Business Center, or City Hall between midnight and 5 A.M. All are popular places for the city's homeless.
Around 50 people showed up to Wednesday meeting at Carpenter's Church. They shared problems surrounding tomorrow's proposed ordinance. They don't want this to turn into a battle with the city, but instead a solution to a growing problem.
Cliff Van Loan is homeless and says the proposed ordinance will make an already bad situation worse. "They don't need this ordinance, let it die."
Chad Wheeler, a minister at Carpenter's Church, spoke at the meeting. "Making it illegal to stay in a few places only pushes people into surrounding areas," he said.
If it passes, a violation could come with a misdemeanor and a fine of up to $500. "If someone gets a fine he can't pay, he ends up going to jail anyway," said Van Loan.
Denette Vaughn came to the meeting as a community member, concerned about those left out on the streets. She voiced her concerns several times throughout the meeting. "[With a] 500 dollar fine, they'll be in jail 5 days. The county will have to pay for food, shelter, medical cost. So all they're doing if they put this in and arrest people, is shifting the problem from the city."
Wheeler thinks it may be hard for authorities to keep tabs on the homeless if the ordinance passes. "All the people are in one space right now that is very visible to police. If you spread it to alleys and neighborhoods surrounding downtown, that's going to be a very difficult thing for the city to manage."
Another item on the agenda from Tuesday's meeting was the law. Many wondered if it violated the hominess's constitutional rights. So we asked Texas Tech Law Professor Arnold Loewy to examine the ordinance. "Between midnight and 5, I couldn't go there, you couldn't go there, and we're not homeless. So I don't think it's a target to the homeless and I don't think its unconstitutional on those grounds."
Van Loan wants the city's new homeless advisory committee to try and find a solution before city council votes to pass a new law. "That's what the committee is for. To come up with solutions, a community approach to the problem, but adding more ordinances to the law books isn't going to be a solution."
Many of the people from Wednesday's meeting will be at City Council first thing Thursday to speak. We'll bring you updated details from city hall as soon as they're available on our website.

In view of the current extremely difficult situation regarding participation in Trial events that is also leading to the free fall of the Trial motorcycle market, the FIM together with the Trial Manufacturers (Montesa-Honda, Gas Gas, Beta, Sherco & Ossa) has decided to take measures in order to find ways to revitalise this discipline.
The first change concerns the sporting regulations of the FIM Trial World Championships that, from 2013, will be "non-stop". All categories of the discipline (World Pro, Open International, Junior, 125cc, Women & Trial des Nations) will now apply more dynamic regulations.
With the aim of making Trial more accessible, reducing the level of the sections, creating more dynamism, reducing the costs and increasing practice and participation, additional measures will be taken in the coming months

MIFF Director Jaie Laplante on Palme d'Or Contenders at Cannes
Categories: Film Fiend
As another Cannes Film Festival winds down, all the chic cineastes here on the Croisette are pretending not to care about the Grand Jury prizes, awarded in a glitzy ceremony before the festival's closing-night film, Christophe Honore's The Beloved. But apathy, says the Film Fiend, is the refuge of the powerless -- and certainly one understands the frustration of trying to predict the jury's selection process, which is often fraught with politics and compromises.
It's very often the case that the Palme d'Or winner, at least, will reflect the personality of the jury's president, which this year is Robert De Niro. Given his artistic personality and icon-of-American-cinema status, does that give the edge to Terrence Malick's symphony of Americana, The Tree of Life? More »

Pilots Permitted To Update Most Databases
The FAA is amending maintenance regulations, removing the task of updating some databases from the preventive maintenance category effective Jan. 28, 2013. Previously, because database updating was listed as preventive maintenance in FAR Part 43 Appendix A, pilots were allowed to perform the updates only on aircraft that they own or operate, but not on commercially operated aircraft. This is because Part 43.3, paragraph (g) allows only pilots who own or operate aircraft not flown under Parts 121, 129 or 135 to conduct preventive maintenance.
The rule change adds paragraph (k) to 43.3, which clearly states that "Updates of databases in installed avionics meeting the conditions of this paragraph are not considered maintenance and may be performed by pilots."
Some constraints apply, in that the database must be uploadable from the flight deck, without disassembling avionics and without tools or special equipment. Other requirements specify the required procedures.

(From PRNewswire) -- Ironic as it may be, despite record-high unemployment and the perception of a surplus of talent, human resources (HR) professionals may be forced to choose from limited quantities of high-skilled workers, a new Deloitte study shows. Moreover, the widening skills gap may put the country's ability to compete globally in a vulnerable position.
The 2012 Top Five Total Rewards Survey from Deloitte and the International Society of Certified Employee Benefit Specialists (ISCEBS) reveals talent as the most significant challenge to organizations over the next three years. One quarter of all survey respondents expressed concerns about talent, particularly the shortage, motivating and retaining talent -- a substantial increase over 16 percent last year. Talent shortage concerns are highest among insurance and professional services firms.
"The survey exposes a widening gap between the dwindling supply of skilled workers in America and the growing demands of the modern workplace," said David Lusk, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and author of the report. "A key challenge ahead for employers will be working to help close this skills gap to maintain a competitive edge in the global marketplace."

(From marketwire) -- Taleo Corporation, a global leader of SaaS-based Talent Management solutions, in conjunction with partner Human Capital Institute (HCI), today released a research report on the economics of Talent Intelligence. The report, based on an extensive survey of more than 600 global organizations, examines the far-reaching economic impact of talent intelligence, identifying connections between its use and overall corporate performance. The report reveals the companies that best satisfy the demands of their leaders are those that place heightened importance on and provide greater visibility into workforce data, delivered in a way that empowers managers to make more informed, rapid business decisions. Talent Intelligence remains a key differentiator in today's hyper-competitive world where the human capital of an organization is its principle engine of production.
As the global economy continues its slow recovery and organizations grapple with an uncertain business climate, the ability to define current and future talent needs and vulnerabilities is essential to success. Companies on the leading edge today are using Talent Intelligence in combination with other business information to drive critical decisions. They are leveraging Talent Intelligence technologies to provide historical, current, and predictive views of the workforce and its direct impact on business operations.

(From MSNBC) -- Millennials—the always-connected generation, those born between 1981 and 2000—have such a "thirst for instant gratification and quick fixes" that they're at risk of making poor life decisions based on findings from a fast Google search or a text message response from a friend.That's the worst-case scenario, according to 42 percent of the 1,021 Internet "experts" from think tanks, research groups, corporations and universities queried by the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project and the Imagining the Internet Center at Elon University in a new study, "Millennials will benefit and suffer due to their hyperconnected lives."Those who are growing up in "today's networked world and counting on the Internet as their external brain will be nimble analysts and decision-makers who will do well," some experts told Pew. But others "expect that constantly connected teens and young adults will thirst for instant gratification and often make quick, shallow choices."Read more.Related articles from T+D:It's a Millennial ThingThe Time Has Come to Embrace Millennial Perspectives

(From UNC Kenan-Flagler) -- In a 2001 interview with Fortune magazine about his company's continued success, Herbert D. Kelleher, founder of Southwest Airlines, attributed much of it to the fact that he always treated his employees like customers. Kelleher knew that employees who are trusted and treated fairly will, in turn, treat their customers with trust and respect.
This is the same kind of philosophy that made Netflix a huge success as a young start-up organization. From the beginning, Netflix founder Reed Hastings knew the kind of company culture he wanted to develop to achieve its purpose. Netflix's "Freedom and Responsibility Culture" was based on the premise that all employees understand the purpose of the organization and that they know the value customers get from doing business with Netflix. The foundation of that culture is trust and responsibility; trust in its employees to achieve the company's goals and trust in its customers to act responsibly by eliminating late fees and asking customers to return their DVD rentals when they are ready.

(From Indiana University) -- The dreaded bell curve that has haunted generations of students with seemingly pre-ordained grades has also migrated into business as the standard for assessing employee performance. But it now turns out -- revealed in an expansive, first-of-its-kind study -- that individual performance unfolds not on a bell curve, but on a "power-law" distribution, with a few elite performers driving most output and an equally small group tied to damaging, unethical or criminal activity.
This turns on its head nearly a half-century of plotting performance evaluations on a bell curve, or "normal distribution," in which equal numbers of people fall on either side of the mean. Researchers from Indiana University's Kelley School of Business predict that the findings could force a wholesale re-evaluation of every facet related to recruitment, retention and performance of individual workers, from pre-employment testing to leadership development.
"How organizations hire, maintain and assess their workforce has been built on the idea of normality in performance, which we now know is, in many cases, a complete myth," said author Herman Aguinis, professor of organizational behavior and human resources at Kelley. "If, as our results suggest, a small, elite group is responsible for most of a company's output and success, then it's critical to identify its members early and manage, train and compensate them differently from colleagues. This will require a fundamental shift in mindset and entirely new management tools."

(From HRReporter.com) -- How well does your organization handle performance reviews?
A formal performance evaluation process is quite commonplace these days, especially in larger organizations. But having a process doesn't mean the approach is firing on all cylinders.
A new study by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) found the vast majority of organizations surveyed – 98 per cent – report having a formal performance evaluation process.
But the study highlighted many gaps in how organizations manage performance reviews, especially with respect to how they engage people managers in the process.
For example only 46 per cent of respondents said they require people managers to be trained on the company's performance evaluation process, although 44 per cent provide voluntary training for people managers.

(From Marketwire) -- A survey by Fierce, Inc., a world-class communication training and leadership development company, provides new insight into employees' perception of workplace practices and the disconnect between the priorities of managers versus employees in terms of workplace communication.
Many employees feel their organization's workplace practices are ineffective -- an assertion supported by the 44% of survey respondents who claim that their company's best practices actually hinder employee productivity and morale. In fact, another 47% reported that their organization's current practices consistently get in the way of desired results, rather than optimize the overall success of the business -- a primary function that a company's best practices are meant to fulfill.
When asked which practices hold their organization back, nearly 50% of respondents identified a lack of company-wide transparency and too little involvement in company decisions as key areas of concern. In addition, nearly half of survey respondents identified the most beneficial practices as those that encouraged accountability, development, and individual empowerment within the organization.
Nearly 800 corporate executives, employees, and educators across the finance, healthcare, retail, aerospace, and defense sectors were surveyed.

A new report, Women and the Paradox of Power, based on research by Anne Perschel of Germane Consulting and Jane Perdue of Braithwaite Innovation Group finds that corporations are leaving money on the table and forgoing future success by failing to place more women in senior leadership roles. Perschel and Perdue also claim that businesswomen must prepare themselves to take on these executive roles by understanding and using power more effectively.
In their study, which involved hundreds of senior-level businesswomen, Perdue and Perschel find that many women relate to power in ways that prevent them from attaining senior-level positions, be it lack of confidence; cultural conditioning; or simply not understanding what power is. In comparison, interviews with women in senor leadership roles at the highest levels of corporations reveal that they have a different understanding of power and use different approaches to gain more of it. They then use their power and influence to make important changes to the culture and to leadership practices.
(From IndustryWeek.com) -- According to a survey by Right Management released on Feb. 7, 31% of respondents said their organization lacked high-potential leaders.
Across the board talent was in short supply as well with 23% of respondents citing this as a problem.
"After three years of organizational contraction and less internal investment companies are taking a hard look at their onboard talent and aren't pleased with what they find," said Michael Haid, senior vice president of Talent Management for Right Management. "Lean times make it hard for organizations seeking to recruit, retain or develop future leaders. And they're keenly aware of the tough competitive environment they're in and the need to hold onto and build leadership."

(From HRmagazine.co.uk) -- Leaders lack empathy with their staff, have poor leadership skills and that a third of them are ineffective, according to global research published this morning by talent management firm DDI.
The report found one in three respondents (34%) only sometimes or never consider their leader to be effective, and over a third (37%) are only sometimes or never motivated to give their best by their leader. Lessons for Leaders from the People Who Matter includes data from an online survey undertaken for DDI by Harris Interactive. This polled more than 1,250 full-time employees in non-management positions in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, China, India, Germany and South East Asia (Malaysia, Philippines and Singapore), and found they would rather suffer a bad hangover, do housework or see their credit card bill arrive in the mail than face the prospect of sitting through a performance discussion with their boss. And only 40% of respondents report that their boss never damages their personal self-esteem, leaving 60% saying they do sometimes, most of the time or always.

The Reds lost two left handed arms from the active roster Friday.
Tony Cingrani, replaced in the starting rotation by the return of Mat Latos, will go back to a starting role with the Reds Triple A team in Louisville after a short stint in the Reds bullpen. The Reds called up relief pitcher Jumbo Diaz to take his spot in the bullpen.
The team also announced Sean Marshall will have shoulder surgery Tuesday. Once considered the team's top left-handed set-up man, Marshall has battled arm injuries for a couple seasons.
Diaz will be making his major league debut after 12 seasons in the minor leagues. In 30 appearances with Louisville, Diaz had a 1.35 ERA and converted 18 of 19 save opportunities.
The Reds start a weekend series with Toronto Friday night at Great American Ball Park.

"Under Water" from "Phalanx". Composed by S. Yamaguchi.
This is my favourite track from the 1992 shoot 'em up "Phalanx" for the SNES. It's kind of infamous for its weird box art in the US version, but thankfully Europe got a box with the same artwork as in the Japanese one (as seen in the video). I tried beating this game just recently, but couldn't get past the "Destroyer"-level.

Utah's just-completed ski season was not superlative by any measure, but after the miserable winter of 2011-12, the state's $1 billion-a-year ski industry warmly welcomed a 5.4 percent increase in visitation.
"I feel pretty good about our numbers," Ski Utah President Nathan Rafferty said Tuesday in releasing the season's skier-day number — 4,031,621 — good enough for sixth on the all-time list.

For one thing, he noted, Utah's 5.4 percent increase far surpassed the 1.9 percent bump that resorts in other Intermountain states posted last winter. But Rafferty said he also felt Utah's resorts came out of the winter with a little extra momentum because the snow that fell came at good times.
"The skiing seemed a lot better than last year," said the head marketer for the state's 14 active resorts. "When I looked back at the end of the year, the snowfall numbers weren't all that good. [Alta's 449 inches were 87 percent of normal, 514.] But the timing of the snowfall was helpful. It came early, which in our business is everything. And the cold temperatures, while they may have kept a few people off the slopes, helped our snowfall to stay put."
Together, they laid the base for an upbeat year.
"Unlike last winter (2011-12), where we started off pretty well but then gradually declined in snow levels, skier visits and momentum," he said, "this year we started OK but got better and better as the season progressed. Hopefully, it rolls into next year. I hope to be knocking on the door of a record next season."
It will take a good snow year to accomplish that. Visitation closely mirrors snowfall patterns, with Utahns showing repeatedly that they will ski if conditions are good by local standards, but will stay home if they don't meet lofty expectations.

Were you raised in a non-functioning family, toxic parents situation with an alcoholic abusive father who repeatedly beat you and denied you peace? Did your mother not provide you with breast milk when you were in the first few months of your life?The profile of your responses indicates that you are a very frightened, insecure and xenophobichuman being suffering from retarded childhood development.It appears you were traumatized while a child which you have carried with you into adulthood.
Xenophobia is a serious disfunction affecting many millions of Americans and is often rooted in those having had Toxic Parents.
"I guess you would deny the history of the world"
...I suppose by that you would mean the danger of warmongering savages, such as yourself, endlessly repeating your inexcusable actions, without ever comprehending the mainstay axiom of "Those Who Forget History Are Doomed to Repeat it".
...does advocating those murderous actions give you a thrill Donald?
Now I understand what "Darkhorse" means...I guess you would deny the history of the world.PEACE be with you. I sincerely hope you can find that Utopia. It's obvious you would never work for it or defend it.Cheers
"You can't have your PEACE and FREEDOM too unless someone kills to maintain it."
... the fataly flawed moral majority, while espousing pro-life and "thou shalt not kill" ...you're quacking up Donald!!!
Fine that you have a sense of humor Donald.
Rolf Rolf! is your bite as bad as your bark?I guess you think you know who are murderers (in your warped way of thinking) but why then don't you have guts enough to say who you think they are? Or do you think that the promise to "take out the farm" hides your terrorist ambitions? Don't you wish you were taken seriously? Thank God you aren't.Donald (not ducking).
Do you have arms on your body Donald Farr(fair)(far)
Do you "live on the farm" Donald Duck?'
Are those at "the farm" murderers Donald Duck?
Or do you know what "the farm" is? Donald Duck

No it is not a threat, it is a promise.
Rolf's rambling...If that is a threat, it is versed like an idiot. Rambling against industry (especially one that helps keep us - yes you - secure) doesn't make much sense. Was it the election defeat that caused you to write "If we are as a humnam specie are to continue throught the now 6th Great Extinction..." If not, you should seek psychological help before you "Take out the farm."God bless us one and all.Don
I am speaking to all of you now. We will be attacking the weapons industries and all of its tentecles. All of its distruction is necessary for the survival of humanity.We will do what we have to do for the survival of the earth and humanity.
If we are as a humnam specie are to continue throught the now 6th Great Extinction we must first begin to cooperate with one another.
The weapons industries goal is to profit from death and distruction. Those who own and profit from all, are themselves lives of lux.
Let us now begin.
Take out the farm.
Dear All
So, the "October Surprise" of Osama Bin Laden has raised its head. Not with the Al Qaeda leader in chains and orange jumpsuit doing the "perp walk" by a triumphant Bush Administration. But with the sudden statements , first by "Azzam the American"( how can he have lived in America but failed to understand the spirit of its people?) and then by Osama Bin Laden himself, he has reminded us not so subtly in the closing days of the Presidential election campaign that he is still at large. So who does( assuming he doesn't give a damn as to who really wins on Tuesday) the Al Qaeda chief and his acoltyes really prefer as President?Personally (at the risk of causing apoplexy to Bush partisans), I suspect that the true"Al Qaeda candidate" is the current incumbent. Four more years of "Dubya" in the Oval Office and the estrangement between the Muslim world and the US( and possibly the EU) might well become permanent- virtually music to Islamic fundamentalist ears.

Donald Farr,...why categorize accurate analysis of horrendously flawed Bush Administration policies/actions as "double speak, Bush Hatred, and just more liberal crap"?
...and, "No one with any brains would accept that BUSH has been responsible for these things" ...tell that to those 100,000 Iraqis whose brains have been blow into mist by your heros.

I reviewed the 3rd volume first so when I went back to the library I decided, Eh, what the heck? and got the next two just for kicks. Gives me something to review and besides, there are a few episodes I havent seen the very beginning of, or I just like a lot. Ill leave out the part where I think Michael Shanks is delicious. Whoops. Too late.
Episode 1: Children of the Gods The Stargate movie has long since been over and the Stargate facility is, well, pretty much defunct. But that was before it was activated...and Jaffa came streaming through, killing and kidnapping soldiers. So who do you get to deal with this? Someone whos been through the Stargate before Colonel Jack ONeill. Here begins the series with a mission to meet up with Dr. Daniel Jackson (who stayed on the planet Abydos) and hopefully take care of the new threat to Earth. Oh, if only it were that simple
You know, Ive never seen the very beginning of this series until now. I always wondered where they got that random army chick (poor woman). But *raises hand* question how did they dial back out again? Oh well. Ignore the questions and be happy the casting was so good; as much as I enjoy Kurt Russell, Richard Dean Anderson starts out strong and will be that way the whole series. Kudos. And again, as much as I love James Spader (yay Boston Legal!), Michael Shanks makes for a fantastic Daniel Jackson. For those of you who saw the movie, Skaara is the same kid. I think stuff like that is nifty. Of course, creativity points for adding Amanda Tapping for the new character of Samantha Carter and Christopher Judge as Tealc.
By the way, this is a long episode something else I never really realized before. Its over an hour, which is why there are only three episodes on this particular volume. Uh, actually, this is listed as the pilot episode, which is why I guess they got away with full frontal nudity on Sha're, something that made me completely flatline for a moment you dont see that on the Sci Fi channel.
Episode 2: The Enemy Within Kawalsky, a member of Jack ONeills original mission has a small problem. Its inside his mind, and its very unhappy. No one is sure how the Goauld got there, but the real focus is how to get it out. If thats possible anyway.
Episode 3: Emancipation The Shavadai people are a lot like Mongols from long ago. Daniel thinks so at least. However, they do have a bit of an issue when it comes to Carter women dont have much say on their planet, so with Carters American woman attitude, things get a little awkward. They go from bad to worse when she suddenly goes missing.
FAVORITE! I love this episode even if it is a little hokey at some parts. Seeing all three guys gawk at Carter in her new blue getup is pretty funny, even though I think it doesnt do her justice and its a bit ugly. I was also excited when I saw Cari-Hiroyuki Tagawa as the essential bad guy of the show. Hes a great bad buy; fantastic Shang-Tsung in Mortal Kombat. Its just fun. Gotta love the dialogue too:
Jack: "Guess Ill have to cancel that Oprah interview."
Teal'c: "What is an Oprah?"
And cue little chuckle. I hadnt noticed it the first time, but when you put this DVD in, some guy says Enter the Stargate like instructions to click the gate (or hit the enter button on your remote).
Back to the show, I like how they started out making people all frosty when they came through the gate just like in the original movie. In fact, seeing the whole pilot episode was a bit of a treat. I never knew there was all that other stuff in that first episode. Pretty cool and something all Stargate fans should look into. Its like a small movie similar to what theyre going to do at the end of the present Stargate season (whoohoo!).
For a beginning show, weve got some decent special effects which means theyre better than the junk in a lot of other made for TV movies have. And even though they didnt get David Arnold to do the music as he did in the original, its easy enough to copy his work down and made a few extra notes to apply to certain situations, so it all works out nicely. When there hasnt been a decent sci-fi show in a long time, this makes for a nice cool drink. If you havent watched any Stargate yet and you enjoy sci-fi, you definitely need to get your hands on this series. Even if you think its kind of corny sometimes, youd still have to admit that its a lot of fun.

TORONTO – Mason Raymond was coming off what he believed to be a pretty good sixth season in Vancouver. He scored 10 goals in 46 games and entered the summer of 2013 as an unrestricted free agent for the first time. But when September rolled around and training camps were due to open in a matter of days, Raymond found himself without the safety and security of a contract.
"We all knew what was happening with the cap," he told the Leaf Report. "But did I think I'd be in that situation? No, not at all."
Amid the now forgotten wreckage of the last NHL lockout was the plunge in the cap's upper limit from $70 million in 2013 to $64.3 million this fall. The dip in available dollars and subsequent uncertainty left many veterans, like Raymond and new Leaf Jerred Smithson, searching with frustration for amenable contracts, often with little or no success.
Though he had played in over 300 NHL games and had scored 25 goals as recently as 2010, Raymond had no better option but a professional tryout in Toronto on the eve of training camp. Suffice it to say, the lack of opportunity took him by surprise and remains a source of bewilderment.
"I had a good year last year," said the 27-year-old, who totaled 22 points in his final season with the Canucks. "I fully expected something to materialize. To be honest, I didn't really know that you'd come into a team on a tryout five days before camp opened. I was optimistic and so was my agent, but it just seemed like for whatever reason a lot of players got stuck in the situation that I did."
There was a general sense among teams, including the Leafs, that cost-effective opportunities might present themselves because of the cap crunch this summer. But to find Raymond available on the eve of training camp was certainly an unexpected and pleasant surprise.
Inked to a one-year contract for an even $1 million, he has proven a valuable find so far. Averaging what would be a career-high of 19 minutes, Raymond has scored five goals and 11 points in 17 games. His speedy presence, amid a 10-game suspension to David Clarkson and early injuries to Nik Kulemin, James van Riemsdyk and Joffrey Lupul, as well as current ones to Tyler Bozak and Dave Bolland, has been an obvious aid to the Leafs, who sit third in the Atlantic division.
"I've always believed I'm an NHL player," Raymond said. "I thought that prior to coming to camp, I thought that all summer and I think that to this day. You have to go out and prove that more importantly to yourself, I think. I'm a big believer that, [if] you do the right things, play some good hockey, everything else will take care of itself."
Some fled to Europe with no jobs to be found as the summer months waned and became fall. Others stuck around and remained as patient as possible, Raymond and Smithson, a veteran of 588 career games prior to this season, among them.
"I knew the situation," said Smithson, in conversation with the Leaf Report. "I knew the cap was going down, but nothing can really prepare you for that. I figured I was still good enough to get a job, get a one-way deal somewhere and, when it didn't happen, it was tough. It was not so much humbling, but more frustrating. I knew it was a possibility, but once it really hit, it [was] not a good feeling."
Unlike Raymond, Smithson wasn't able to land even a tryout in the NHL, but one instead with the Marlies of the AHL. It was mid-October. He and his fiancé were parents of a newborn baby. Patience had been predictably difficult to keep.
"I knew right away I wasn't obviously a big name, that teams were going to go after the first few days, so I was prepared to be patient – maybe not this patient, but prepared to be patient," he said. "Once August rolled around and still, there wasn't anything that was really coming out at me. There were a few tryout offers or two-way deals, but nothing that I was really willing to bite on right away."
Smithson and his agent were forced to give a good, long look to Europe.
"It was never a dream of mine to go over to Europe," he said. "And I made that clear to my agent right away that I'm willing to be as patient as I can. It was obviously a lot harder than I originally thought, but it worked out."
Injuries to Bozak and Bolland finally opened a door back into the NHL for Smithson last week - the 34-year-old signed a one-year deal for the veteran minimum of $550,000. A noted faceoff specialist and penalty killer, he has quickly gained an important role for Randy Carlyle, plugging the gap of the two injured centres in both regards.
"I'm not a big fan of the term 'it is what is,' but I can't control [the cap crunch]," said Smithson, who played seven seasons in Nashville, also making stops in Los Angeles, Florida and Edmonton. "I could just control my attitude and try to stay in the best shape as I possibly could and, if a phone call came, just be ready for when that opportunity knocked. I'm very grateful for the opportunity the Leafs gave me, with the Marlies and with them, [and I'm] just looking to take advantage of it."
Though Smithson projects as more of a stop-gap option, Raymond could earn himself a larger contract next summer with a productive season.
Two years ago, Clarke MacArthur joined the Leafs late in the summer on a bargain one-year deal, worth $1.1 million. Now a member of the Ottawa Senators, MacArthur busted out with a career season that first year in Toronto, subsequently signing a two-year deal worth $6.5 million the following offseason.
Raymond could be in line for something similar if he remains productive. At the very least, with the cap expected to rise once more, he is unlikely to find himself in such a precarious position again.
"That's hockey, that's life, that's the cards you were dealt and you have to deal with it," Raymond said of the cap crunch this past summer. "You can sit here and say the 'what ifs,' 'whatevers,' and all that, but it was a situation and, unfortunately, it happened to some of us. I think [the cap was] the reason, [but] I don't know the exact reason. For [Smithson's] sake and my sake things have worked out well."

Acceptance of Chronic Illness
It is known that acceptance of long-term chronic illness is seen as a substantial problem in patients with chronic illnesses. Absence of acceptance can lead to clinical improvements being delayed considerably. It can also lead to poorer adherence to the current and ongoing medical treatment.
