Conventionally used in cooking, the medicinal uses of cloves have been known for centuries. This healing spice provides amazing antibacterial, antiviral and antiseptic properties and can even be used as a natural anesthetic. Our Organic Clove powder is one of the most potent natural sources of antioxidants ever discovered with an ORAC score over 3000 per gram. The Clove has been used in Asian culture for over 2,000 years! Dating back as far as 200 BC, Cloves were chewed by Chinese servants to keep their breath smelling sweet while in the presence of the Emperor as not to offend him. In China and Persia, this fragrant spice was also used as an aphrodisiac. Cloves have also been traditionally used to alleviate tooth aches and to combat cholera, tuberculosis and Malaria. Today, the Clove is commonly used to combat a variety of illnesses. Cloves are the dried flower buds of the Clove Tree, a type of evergreen tree that grows in tropical environments. The unique phytonutrient components of the Clove are accompanied by a large amount of beneficial nutrients. Studies have shown that Cloves contain a substantial amount of manganese, dietary fiber, vitamin C and omega 3 fatty acids, calcium and magnesium. The Clove has unique phytonutrient components such as the flavonoids, kaempferol, and rhamnetin which contribute to the Cloves powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capacities. The most significant chemical found in Cloves is eugenol, which provides Cloves with their extraordinary medicinal value. Eugenol is a potent anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal agent which can be twice as effective as traditional antifungal medications. Eugenol a powerful fat-soluble antioxidant can promote healthy blood circulation by lowering the levels of fat peroxide in red blood cells, keeping the body's antioxidant enzymes at healthy levels. In the USA, the eugenol extracted from cloves is often used in dentistry to ease discomfort during root canal and temporary filling procedures due to its mild anesthetic and antiseptic capabilities. The component beta-caryophyllene is also found in Cloves adding to their anesthetic ability. Clove oil is often found in over-the-counter sore throat sprays and mouth washes due to its natural antiseptic and analgesic qualities. Cloves can also aid in digestive system function. Cloves can remedy an array of digestive problems including flatulence, and vomiting. This promotion of healthy digestion can even help to boost metabolism. Cloves are a natural antispasmodic and can be applied topically to soothe muscle spasms or brewed as a tea to remedy heavy coughing episodes. Sucking on cloves has been known to reduce the craving for alcohol. Some possible benefits of our raw organic Clove powder may include: ● Promoting healthy digestion ● Soothing indigestion, vomiting & diarrhea ● Anti-inflammatory qualities ● Relief from a hernia ● Fighting ringworm ● Anti-fungal ● Promoting healthy respiratory function ● Anti-gout properties ● Relieving toothaches ● Reducing insomnia symptoms ● Curbing the desire for alcohol ● Mild anesthetic properties ● Anti-bacterial ● Natural antiseptic properties ● Boosting metabolism ● Promoting healthy blood circulation ● Anti-viral properties ● Anti-oxidant qualities The Clove has been used for years, appreciated for its wonderful effects on the body.

Re: who pitches for the lookouts saturday?
Most of the time it's on the team's website... but it wasn't. This article is from the Chattanoogan: [bolded for emphais]
http://www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_89214.asp Birmingham Shuts Out The Chattanooga Lookouts Friday, 1-0 Homer Bailey Pitches Saturday Nightby Tim Evearitt posted July 14, 2006 Photo by Tim Evearitt Birmingham's Lance Broadway gave up five hits over seven innings to beat the Lookouts Friday night. Click to enlarge photo. Friday night 4,498 fans were on hand for baseball and fireworks at BellSouth Park where the Birmingham Barons shutout the Chattanooga Lookouts, 1-0. It was pitching over hitting for the second straight night. Thursday night the Lookouts won, 2-1. Tonight Tyler Pelland (5-3) and Birminghams Lance Broadway (6-6) hurled four innings of scoreless ball. The only run in the contest came in the fifth inning on a home run over the right field wall by the Barons Thomas Collaro. Four Birmingham pitchers combined on the 1-0 shutout. With Tennessees loss to Jacksonville Friday, the Lookouts (13-10) remained tied for first place in the North Division. If West Tenn wins, there will be a three-way tie for the top spot. The Lookouts had seven hits to six for the Barons. Gary Patchett was 2-for-3; Ryan Hanigan went 2-for-4; Anderson Machado was 1-for-3; Joey Votto and Noochie Varner went 1-for-4. Birmingham came up with three double plays in the game; Chattanooga had two. The Lookouts had three scoring opportunities but couldnt get the big hit when they needed it. 1. Chattanooga missed a scoring opportunity in the second inning. With Hanigan on third with one out, Rick Asadoorian grounded out to second. Luis Bolivar walked and stole second. With runners on second a third, Patchett struck out swinging to end the theat. 2. In the seventh inning, the Lookouts wasted another opportunity to score. With Hanigan on third and one out, Asadoorian fanned and Bolivar grounded out to second. 3. Patchett led off the eighth with a single to left. After Javon Moran struck out, Machado walked. With left hander Votto up, the Barons went to the pen for lefty Tim Bittner. It worked as Votto grounded into a second-to-short-to first double play. The Lookouts stranded six base runners and Birmingham left seven runners on base. Pelland threw six innings giving up six hits and one run, he walked three and struck out two batters. He got good support from the defense with two double plays. The bullpen pitched effectively Friday: - David Shafer pitched the seventh inning and eighth innings. He walked two but did not give up a hit or a run. - Jim Abbott set the Barons down 1-2-3 in the ninth inning. * * * * * Tomorrow night's game showcases two outstanding pitchers. Birmingham's Tyler Lumsden (9-2/2.74) faces Chattanooga Homer Bailey (3-0/0.00). Game time is 7:15 p.m.

It airs tomorrow morning at 8:30am CDT (9:30am EDT).

We'll be sure to post a link after it airs tomorrow, if they make one available.
Do you have an actual pool or are they all just slides and rides? I just wanted to know if I want to come this year. I came last year and had a blast, but I just wondered if you had an actual pool. And if you do where at on the map?

The segment of Holiday World never aired on the Today Show at 8:30 this morning. I would like to see it because I love Holiday World, its the best park in the world.

Abington, Holy Redeemer, Plan New Company
Abington Health and Holy Redeemer Health System, both based in Abington Township, plan to create a new regional health system. The trustees of both institutions have approved Letters of Intent.
Abington Health Chairman of the Board Robert Infarinato says the new organization will better serve the community through quality and efficiency improvements and enhanced coordination of care, which relies upon closer alignment between health systems, physicians and other providers.
Holy Redeemer Health System Chair William Sasso says the two health systems are forming a new parent company that will provide oversight and direction while allowing nonsectarian Abington and Catholic Holy Redeemer to preserve their heritage and identity. Regulatory and other approvals are still required, and the process should be complete by early spring.

Notes from the Underground Part Five — Escaping Muybridge's Curse (Can We?)
(about two kinds of aided perception
In the previous article "Knowing Enough About Seeing To Let 'The Other' Draw Accordingly," I tried to show that if we want to look at our looking, we are faced with difficulties, and are likely to come to the realization that our seeing is very ambiguous, elusive, even utterly unknown and mysterious.
It seems that, when trying to pay attention to attention itself, we fall almost inevitably in some sort of circularity: trying to look at our looking is looking too, so that we are using the very tool we are trying to examine as the tool with which we do the examining itself!
We obviously need another way, an "oblique progression" as Merleau-Ponty called it.
If "catering to the appearing as it appears" is the goal, it is also the means!
Indeed, if, when faced with ambiguity and confusion, we accept those "as is" and no longer try to set order where we (think we) see chaos and disorder, but instead, accept those as they give themselves to us (to "me"), if we try as best we can to depict them "as is," we enter a different way of working, a different way of seeing. (Here, as I have shown before, we need to reverse our habitual way of proceeding, from "look, understand, do" to "look, do, in order to maybe understand.")
To trust that one's "not knowing" has more to offer than the ready-made "solutions" provided by others is an important step in becoming an artist, and a responsible human being.
An old friend, a remarkable philosopher by the name of José Huertas-Jourda, used to tell his students "trust your darkness." This is very appropriate to what I am talking about. (José has a lot to do with some of the ideas I am presenting here. He is the one who introduced me to Husserl 30-odd years ago, and his own thinking has uncovered many of the aspects of our "living present" that I am presenting in these articles.)
This inherent ambiguity we all can see as being the core, or at the core, of our own perception and it is possibly our greatest ally in our search for meaning, but it has often prompted many to search for (external) help, often accepting shortcuts and approximations, "simplifications" that bring with them their own sets of problems, and that most certainly do not provide any genuine answers. ("If you did not learn it by yourself, it is merely a borrowed plumage" goes an old Zen saying.)
In my previous article, I hinted at the possibility that we may have been (willingly) misled by Eadweard Muybridge's work and by the approach to animation that was (still is) derived from it.
We have been under the spell of those images, as they gave us the impression of explaining motion in a way that can easily be applied to creating animation. However, this "understanding" is far from being reliable, it is not even based on the way we ("I") see and experience motion, it is a fabrication needing the "out-of-human-time" images provided by a camera.

A koala is a marsupial that gives birth after an average 34 to 36 day gestation or pregnancy period. At birth the koala young measures around 2.5cm (1 inch) in length and weighs approximately 1 gram. The young finds its way from the birth opening to the mother's backward facing pouch assumedly unaided. The modified structure of the pouch - being reversed - enables the koala to raise their young in a way that is suited to their lifestyle.Once in the pouch, the young will suckle from only one of the two teats for the entirety of the suckling period. This period can last upward of nine months. For the first six months the young undergoes its most rapid growth and development. Within this short time, feeding only on the mother's rich milk, the joey transforms from being underdeveloped and translucent-skinned young, to a fully developed, yet not fully grown, distinguishable koala with a thin covering of fur all over the body.
When the joey reaches this point it is then time for it to obtain a substance referred to as pap. Pap is a type of modified faecal output that provides koala young with essential gut flora enabling them to move on to a solid diet. It is partly due to a symbiotic bacterium that the koala can digest the very fibrous and toxic eucalyptus leaf and it is only through eating this pap that a joey may acquire this bacterium.
Usually at about six months of age, koala joeys will start to stimulate their mother's cloaca to produce pap and may have anywhere up to six feeding sessions during the space of two months. During this time they will also nibble on the leaves to get a taste for them and to test out their new gut flora.
Here at the Zoo we have a new joey that will be starting to pap feed very soon. Keep your eyes peeled while visiting and you might just be able to view this amazing event.

Told documentary style, The Devil Inside features some chills and scares, but the exorcism-based film isn't all that compelling. Despite this, the movie had a blockbuster opening during its first week in theaters before steeply declining.
Home Theater Forum's Neil Middlemiss reviewed the Blu-ray release and had these thoughts:
The look of this film is a product of the locations and lighting chosen where, for the most part, it appears natural light was used as primary source.
Dialogue is heavily focused in the center channel and, without issues to speak of; the audio is as to be expected.

Well, you can always tell a light news weekend by the large google gadget in middle of the post.
Its true, I didnt get too much news over the weekend again.
And I didnt do near what I wanted to either, though some things did manage to get done. I changed the kids closet light, which turned out to be an adventure since a large portion of the house apparently gets power from that closet light. Ah, the fun of ancient wiring.
I was going to clean the basement, but that stupid light took forever. The wife managed to get somewhere though.
I was going to play Gothic III, but my copy from gogamer doesnt arrive till today. Sigh.
I was going to sleep in on Saturday, but the youngest came up with the whole, Im unhappy because I have a yeast infection excuse. Yeah, that old saw. But I had many a nap,.
I dunno, it was a much more lazy weekend for me then I wanted it to be, but it was still a weekend, so I cant complain.
Well, except about not having Gothic 3. Im all over that game like white on rice when it shows up. Thats why I did the gogamer.com thing, since the USA release isnt till Nov 20th or so. No way I was waiting that long. Maybe it will arrive with my LED flashlight from meritline, which according to Fedex tracking has actually been in the state for the past week. Apparently, Fedex Ground means they walk it to you.
I hate waiting for anything.
You go have a day.

Football has been very, very good to us.
In the midst of this losing season, we can console ourselves with this fact-

1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans
2-Washington, Green Bay, Denver, Pittsburgh, Baltimore

4-New York Giants!!!!!

Guess who had Arizona Cardinals defense in Fantasy.
Thats right baby!!!!!
I live in Arizona and I can tell you that Fitz is a very classy guy and hands down the best WR in the NFL. Can you only imagine if Eli was throwing to him? I get the chills thinking that he was almost traded to the eagles. The eagles were offering a 1st and a 2nd round draft pick and some other stuff for him. Not sure why it did not work out, but I am glad it didn't!
how can you not be a fan of Larry Fitz. Dude is an awesome guy, class act, and a hell of a WR.

Over the span of four days at the Winter Meetings, public perception of the Mets underwent a complete metamorphosis. Gone was the team that spent most of the early winter serving as daily tabloid fodder, replaced by a sleeker version with a clear and concise message: The Mets are trying to win.More»Alderson explains what Grandy brings to the ballclub |
The Mets have had themselves a fine few days. Sure, it begins with making the baseball team better on the field. Curtis Granderson and Bartolo Colon do that on a couple of levels. Both are productive players and consummate professionals. Also significant is that their signings is a message to Mets fans that their team is aggressively attempting to improve, and that the first phase of the rebuilding project could be nearing an end.More»Alderson sums up Mets' moves during Winter Meetings |
The Mets moved to bolster their starting rotation on Wednesday, agreeing to a two-year, $20 million contract with free-agent right-hander Bartolo Colon. The deal is pending a physical.More»Mets reportedly have deal for Bartolo Colon |
General manager Sandy Alderson has two left-handed-hitting first basemen on his roster and would ideally like to deal one of them for a young, controllable pitcher.

The Mets have agreed to a Minor League deal with right-hander Jeremy Hefner after non-tendering him last week, according to a source. The team has not commented on the deal because it is not yet official.More» Hefner fans six over six frames |
Mets general manager Sandy Alderson met Monday with Brewers GM Doug Melvin, among others, to discuss a potential trade of first basemen Ike Davis or Lucas Duda, and the logic there is simple: whichever player the Mets deal, the other one would become their starting first baseman (likely in a platoon with right-handed-hitting Josh Satin).More»DiComo on Granderson, Mets' rotation and first base |
Among others, the Mets met Monday with the agent for Bartolo Colon, baseball's best free-agent starter who might accept a one-year deal. An agreement with the Mets seems unlikely, given the 40-year-old Colon's expected salary demands -- if not a multiyear contract, perhaps an eight-figure price tag -- and the team's payroll restrictions.More»Alderson on Mets' mindset going into Winter Meetings |
Former managers Tony La Russa, Joe Torre and Bobby Cox were elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame on Monday by a unanimous vote of the Expansion Era Committee.More»Cox, Torre and La Russa discuss honor of HOF vote |

Within twelve months of opening a restaurant just two doors north of Freeport's L.L. Bean, Jonas Werner got a call from his wife and business partner, Kate, saying that they had to consider filing for bankruptcy. Their dream project - one that had started with Werner's boyhood experiments with cans of Campbell's soup - had lost a hundred thousand dollars and was going under.
But Werner resisted. "The difference between restaurants that fail and those that succeed are the ones that fail close," he says. Undeterred, he and his wife scrapped their original restaurant plans and started over with a new concept. This time, without the help of consultants, the couple went back to what they loved, Werner says: "Fine food in a casual atmosphere. We set out to do that." The challenge would be to run a year-round business that flourished whether there were five hundred diners, as there might be on a good summer's day, or sixty, as there might be in the middle of winter.
The result is Azure Caf`, a six-year-old eatery that describes itself as "a taste of Italy on the coast of Maine." In fact, given the menu, the restaurant might be said to have three identities: one as a Maine lobster house, serving award-winning clam chowder and lobster rolls; another as a classic Italian restaurant, serving lasagna Bolognese, linguine with clam sauce, and chicken Marsala; and still another as a more upscale restaurant with imaginative dishes like roasted pork tenderloin in a Chianti and black currant reduction sauce.
As chef Chris Bassett explains, "We had to come up with comfort foods, as well as appealing to people looking for something new and exciting. A lot of chefs feel like they have to do something no one's ever done before. You don't have to do that to succeed."
The "something" that Azure does - thanks to Bassett's training at Vermont's New England Culinary Institute and his experience at Scarborough's Black Point Inn and Portland's Back Bay Grill, among other places - allows diners to come in for a quick grilled flatbread sandwich, a light salad (like the nicely sweet and crunchy insalate mescolare with greens, caramelized pistachios, and Gorgonzola with a roasted apple balsamic vinaigrette) or a more substantial dinner. In addition to the respectable wine list, there are imaginative drinks, like the popular wild Maine blueberry margarita and the Azuretini, consisting of Ciroc vodka, white cranberry juice, and a frozen grape, an elegant improvement on the often overly sweet Cosmopolitan. Drinks can be enjoyed with meals or in the downstairs bar. Upstairs, there's an airy, though minimally decorated, dining room. On a recent night, every table was occupied. A shopper was eating a lobster dinner while talking on her cell phone about her day's purchases, a group of local retirees were wondering if they should try the risotto of the day or stick to one of their old favorites, and a young woman was telling her table about her recent experiences in the army.
"I always thought," Werner admits, "that there was a tourist menu and a local menu. But the food we thought was for tourists is for locals. I'm amazed at the number of people who come here year-round and eat fish and chips."
Werner feels that the success of Azure Caf`'s dishes - whether simple or more complex - is Bassett's palate. The fried calamari is appealingly light, finished with a bit of Parmesan, lemon juice, parsley, and rice wine vinegar - just the right tastes to offset the crisp breading. The Sicilian-style cioppino with super fresh mussels, haddock, lobster, and shrimp is one of the menu's real standouts, the standard dish rendered more complex by the sauce's intriguing layers of flavors: tomatoes, roasted red peppers, roasted garlic, clam juice, and red and white wines. Sometimes Bassett gives a "down home" twist to upscale ingredients, turning his filet mignon into a stylish steak-and-cheese sandwich, one that includes wild Maine mushrooms and black truffle duxelles, fried shallots, and Gorgonzola cheese.
Come winter, all this has to be enjoyed indoors. In the summer, there is an outdoor (dog-friendly) patio. And a new menu. Indeed, the menu changes every three months to suit the seasons and local availability. Werner purchases lobsters from Harpswell and meat from Freeport's Wolfe's Neck Farm and uses mostly natural and organic ingredients. A local farmer even heats his greenhouse with the restaurant's discarded oil.
"It's like family here," Werner says, speaking of his appealingly friendly, low-key staff, and of Freeport itself. "Someone asks for something," he adds, referring to local requests for food for the needy, "we do it. To cook for a family who is going through a difficult time and deliver it? That's not hard for us to do." He looks around his downstairs dining room, where waiters are neatening up after lunch. "After all, we're already here cooking."
Azure Cafe` is located at 123 Main Street in Freeport. Open daily. Lunch is served from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. Weekend light fare from 3 - 4 p.m. Dinner from 5 - 8:30 p.m. on weeknights, till 9:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Lunch $8-$12. Dinner entrees $12.50-$32. Full bar. Wheelchair accessible. 207-865-1237. www.azurecafe.com

Yahoooooo—prom season is here! Bring on the sexy dresses, cute boys, and fun times!
Need help amping yourself up for the glorious occasion? (Ha, I doubt it!) Go see Prom, starring vegan actress Aimee Teegarden, which opens in theaters tomorrow. Yep, Aimee is not only vegan, but she's also outspoken against fur and loves her pooch Gizmo. I'm gonna see this movie just 'cause she's rad!
The teenybopper side of me loooves a good prom flick… In fact, I just watched Pretty in Pink last week (for the bazillionth time), and it was awe-some! If you haven't seen it yet, you're depriving yourself of a classic '80s gem!
What's your favorite prom-themed movie?
