If one tried hard, one could almost understand why some voted for Obama the first time round, but to do so the second time with all that was shown about his leadership , is not understandable. What did these voters expect the future to be? This is just the beginning guys. Let the pain begin!
This man is a star. He sheds any pretense of PC and tells Americans how stupid we´ve become.
It gives them a raste of the way many Americans view what most of those clowns do most of the time. It is abundantly clear, most Congress Critters are there for themselves, not J. Q. Public.
Whoopos....#3 belongs on a different article. Sorry
Obama is simply an update of the "It´s a black thing, you wouldn´t understand" slogan seen in Manhattan during Winnie Mandela´s visit to the US. Under accusations of murdering her opponents and encouraging revenge through the gasoline soaked tire "necklace", Mandela was warming received in progressive black circles. Obama is treated much the same way was he encourages supporters to put economic tires around our necksThe Constitution was written by old white men who owned slaves, so it cannot apply to Obama,
He knew that the unemployment will rise and hence the 2yr guaranteed unemployment benefit. And does he really care about anyone after the 2014 elections? Ofcourse not!!
Fear is correct. The largest increase in gun sales is in D.C.? Feeling guilty folks?
Disaster is coming, and after 40 years of embracing abortion, after imposing homosexuality on school children and our military, and after reelecting Obama in hopes of "more free stuff," it couldn´t be coming on a more deserving people.
Was talking with a service member yesterday. The Military is afraid that Obama is going to send them all overseas, then pretty much as the UN to send ´peacekeepers´ into the US to pacify the country.They also believe that with the way Obama is getting rid of our nukes that Russia or China will be using theirs on us pretty soon.They are not happy campers.
These numbers are a further indications the election was STOLEN!! I don´t understand why more isn´t being made of this
I think the only ones apprehensive about the next four years are the producing 47 or 48% of the population. The rest will go along fat, dumb, happy and using up those minutes on the Obamaphones.

NXP Announces GreenChip for Low-Cost LED Lamps up to 10W
Non-dimmable SSL2115x series to drive energy-efficient LEDs
Eindhoven, Netherlands and Shanghai, China (PRWEB) June 08, 2012
NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ: NXPI) today announced the SSL2115x series of high-efficiency GreenChip driver ICs for low-cost LED retrofit lamps. The new SSL21151 and SSL21153 are designed for non-dimmable 5W and 10W LED lamps respectively, providing good current control in flyback and buck-boost configurations. The SSL2115x enables small form-factor LED drivers, using primary-side sensing to regulate current, and offering integrated LED open/short protections, an internal 700V MOSFET, and a circuit enabling start-up directly from the rectified mains voltage. With the use of an additional valley fill circuit, the SSL2115x series can offer a power factor of approximately 0.9. NXP is showing the SSL21151/53 at Guangzhou International Lighting Exhibition (Hall 13.2, Booth B43).
"To make LED lamps a viable replacement for incandescent light bulbs on a large scale, many manufacturers are exploring ways to bring the average selling price below the $10 mark. At the same time, the luminous efficacy of LEDs is improving steadily, requiring less power to emit more lumens," said Ryan Zahn, general manager, lighting solutions product line, NXP Semiconductors. "By offering a compact, low-cost solution for driving LED lamps up to 10W, we are broadening our portfolio of options for lighting manufacturers focused on delivering both energy savings and value to a broad customer base worldwide."
The new SSL2115x series driver ICs are designed for ultra-low-cost, non-dimmable LEDs using isolated flyback and non-isolated buck-boost topologies, powering up to 5W (SSL21151) and 10W (SSL21153), with a small PCB footprint. Key features include:
- Low output ripple Ë'1%
- Power factor (PF): 0.6 or ~0.9 using valley fill
- Internal protections, including over-temperature protection (OTP), LED short protection, LED open protection, and undervoltage lockout protection (UVLO)
- Integrated 700V MOSFET
- Primary-side sensing without an optocoupler
- Low component count, with a complete application requiring only 25 components and fitting in GU10 casing
- Compatibility with IEC 61000-3-2 Harmonics Standards
- EMC compliance: Class B CISPR22 and FCC Part 15
- Compact SO7 package
Qualification samples of the GreenChip SSL21151 and SSL21153 driver ICs for high-performance non-dimmable LED applications are now available for ordering, with volume production scheduled to begin in July 2012.

Visiting a tile showroom can be a great way for someone to explore a backsplash materials and configurations.
Lori Carroll, Interior Designer: After interviewing the client, I personally come up with a tile design for each space. I may visit a tile showroom with the client or if I know their preferences, choose items myself to present later.
Lisa Elkins, Architect: It usually is a collaboration involving us, the client, and the [showroom] we are purchasing tile from. If we have an idea, and the showroom doesn't have the shape or style we were thinking of, they can usually recommend an alternative that will help achieve that look. A lot of times we have samples in our own library, so we know the parameters we have to work in before we even go to the tile showroom. But sometimes we see a space and think of something that would look great that we don't have samples of.
Anna Marie Fanelli, Showroom Owner: It is very important that a homeowner understands the capability of the tile showroom. Most high-end showrooms will be able to design a backsplash or offer design services without needing a kitchen or interior designer. If the showrooms have some interesting tile vignettes, rest assured that they can design.
Verdict: If you're not working with a designer, a tile showroom should be able to help you plan and execute a backsplash design.
You can use reclaimed wood for something like a countertop, as seen in the kitchen above. But using reclaimed wood for a backsplash can be a difficult proposition.

Our Summer of Climate Truth
Thursday, August 9, 2012 3:40 PM
"Love is natural and real. But not for you my love. Not tonight my love..."
Quote: Jeffrey D. Sachs Jeffrey D. Sachs is a professor at Columbia University, Director of its Earth Institute, and a special adviser to United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon. His work focuses on economic development and international aid, was he was Director of the UN Millennium Project from 2002 to 2006. His books include The End of Poverty and Common Wealth. NEW YORK – For years, climate scientists have been warning the world that the heavy use of fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) threatens the world with human-induced climate change. The rising atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, a byproduct of burning fossil fuels, would warm the planet and change rainfall and storm patterns and raise sea levels. Now those changes are hitting in every direction, even as powerful corporate lobbies and media propagandists like Rupert Murdoch try to deny the truth. In recent weeks, the United States has entered its worst drought in modern times. The Midwest and the Plains states, the country's breadbasket, are baking under a massive heat wave, with more than half of the country under a drought emergency and little relief in sight. Halfway around the world, Beijing has been hit by the worst rains on record, with floods killing many people. Japan is similarly facing record-breaking torrential rains. Two of Africa's impoverished drylands – the Horn of Africa in the East and the Sahel in the West – have experienced devastating droughts and famines in the past two years: the rains never came, causing many thousands to perish, while millions face life-threatening hunger. Scientists have given a name to our era, the Anthropocene, a term built on ancient Greek roots to mean "the Human-dominated epoch" – a new period of earth's history in which humanity has become the cause of global-scale environmental change. Humanity affects not only the earth's climate, but also ocean chemistry, the land and marine habitats of millions of species, the quality of air and water, and the cycles of water, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other essential components that underpin life on the planet. For many years, the risk of climate change was widely regarded as something far in the future, a risk perhaps facing our children or their children. That threat would, of course, have been reason enough to act. Yet now we understand better that climate change is also about us, today's generation. We have already entered a new and very dangerous era. If you are a young person, climate change and other human-caused environmental hazards will be major factors in your life. Scientists emphasize the difference between climate and weather. The climate is the overall pattern of temperature and rainfall in a given place. The weather is the temperature and rainfall in that place at a particular time. As the old quip puts it: "Climate is what you expect; weather is what you get." When the temperature is especially high, or rains are especially heavy or light, scientists try to assess whether the unusual conditions are the result of long-term climate change or simply reflect expected variability. So, is the current US heat wave (making this the hottest year on record), the intense Beijing flooding, or the severe Sahel drought a case of random bad weather, or merely the result of long-term, human-induced climate change? For a long time, scientists could not answer such a question precisely. They were unsure whether a particular weather disaster could be attributed to human causes, rather than to natural variation. They could not even be sure that they could detect whether a particular event (such as a heavy rainfall or a drought) was so extreme as to lie outside the normal range. In recent years, however, a new climate science of "detection and attribution" has made huge advances, both conceptually and empirically. Detection means determining whether an extreme event is part of usual weather fluctuations or a symptom of deeper, long-term change. Attribution means the ability to assign the likely causes of an event to human activity or other factors. The new science of detection and attribution is sharpening our knowledge – and also giving us even more cause for concern. Several studies in the past year have shown that scientists can indeed detect long-term climate change in the rising frequency of extreme events – such as heat waves, heavy rains, severe droughts, and strong storms. By using cutting-edge climate models, scientists are not only detecting long-term climate change, but also are attributing at least some of the extreme events to human causes. The past couple of years have brought a shocking number of extreme events all over the planet. In many cases, short-run natural factors rather than human activity played a role. During 2011, for example, La Niña conditions prevailed in the Pacific Ocean. This means that especially warm water was concentrated near Southeast Asia while colder water was concentrated near Peru. This temporary condition caused many short-term changes in rainfall and temperature patterns, leading, for example, to heavy floods in Thailand. Yet, even after carefully controlling for such natural year-to-year shifts, scientists are also finding that several recent disasters likely reflect human-caused climate change as well. For example, human-caused warming of the Indian Ocean probably played a role in the 2011 severe drought in the Horn of Africa, which triggered famine, conflict, and hunger, affecting millions of impoverished people. The current US mega-drought probably reflects a mix of natural causes, including La Niña, and a massive heat wave intensified by human-caused climate change. The evidence is solid and accumulating rapidly. Humanity is putting itself at increasing peril through human-induced climate change. As a global community, we will need to move rapidly and resolutely in the coming quarter-century from an economy based on fossil-fuels to one based on new, cutting-edge, low-carbon energy technologies. The global public is ready to hear that message and to act upon it. Yet politicians everywhere are timid, especially because oil and coal companies are so politically powerful. Human well-being, even survival, will depend on scientific evidence and technological know-how triumphing over shortsighted greed, political timidity, and the continuing stream of anti-scientific corporate propaganda.

Sexual Health: Is it okay to have sex when I have a yeast infection?
Special Offer
Is it okay to have sex when I have a yeast infection?
You're better off taking a brief hiatus from intercourse if you've been struck with this common ailment, according to Rodney Francis, a Santa Monica OB-GYN. "When you have a yeast infection, the vaginal tissues become inflamed," he explains. "Having sex further increases the irritation and slows down the healing process." It also puts your guy at risk of catching your infection, then passing it back to you. What's more, if you're using an anti-yeast cream instead of oral medication, having sex can remove some of the cream from your vagina, making the meds less effective. To give your bod time to recoup, wait until three days after finishing any treatment before getting busy.

You're trying to bulk right? If I recall you also play a good bit of sports. You've got to focus on that diet. I see that you're just taking a weight gainer. Have you thought about adding protein and/or casein to this?
And I said it once before, but I'm gonna say it again: squat, deadlift, bench, repeat! Take a look at this routine: http://www.jefit.com/routines/workou...se.php?id=2909 This was based off a VERY solid routine on bodybuilding.com (link in description). For you, I'd skip the cardio since you're heavy into sports. Maybe this can get you going in the right direction/give you some ideas.

The World of Rare Salt: Amabito No Moshio
In the world of sea salt, the earliest known sea salt produced by the Japanese may be the rarest of all. Called Amabito No Moshio ("Ancient Sea Salt"), unpolluted sea water is collected from the Seto-uchi inland sea, infused with seaweed to develop the "unami", and then processed by cooking in an iron kettle, put into a centrifuge, and finally, cooked over an open fire while stirring constantly. The salt is worth over $40 per pound.
The island where most of this salt is produced is called Kami-Kamagari, and has a population of less than 3,000. Archaeological digging has uncovered salt-making pots dating from the 2nd or 3rd century AD -- a find which, in 1998, encouraged the locals to take up the production of this ancient sea salt, again. Salt expert Mark Bittman says the flavor is "savory" and "unctuous" and suggests it on meats, rice, roasted potatoes, even a chocolate souffle!

FOCUS ON FRESH STARTS FOR WELLNESS & SAFETY REVIEW, RETHINK, RESOLVE! New beginnings bring opportunities to ensure the health and safety of ourselves, our families, our neighborhoods and communities. It's always a good time to start thinking about what you can do to make a difference in quality of life, not just in January but every day. Here are a few tips to consider this year as you review what you can do and resolve to continue the quest for better living. Remember you can't take care of everyone else unless you take care of yourself, too! GOOD HEALTH – BACK ON TRACK Plans for healthy habits hold the best intentions, but they're often road-blocked by lack of time, energy limitations, procrastination, family responsibilities, and work demands, among other interferences to integral self-care. When you make the time, you decrease stress, increase strength and feel better, leading to the incentive needed to maintain healthy habits. Health-related goals are, indeed, popular among people with New Year's resolutions. In the last 25 years, resolutions concerning weight, exercise, better relationships, and smoking cessation have been at the top of turn-of-the-calendar objectives for both sexes, says John The Monitor Keeping the Pulse on the Oklahoma Medical Reserve Corps • Vol 5, Issue 4 – Holiday 2010 PRSRT STD US POSTAGE PAID OKLAHOMA CITY, OK PERMIT No. 1078 Oklahoma Medical Reserve Corps 1111 Classen Drive Oklahoma City, OK 73103 8 1 The Monitor Volunteers Building Strong, Healthy And Prepared Communities!

All rights reserved. C. Norcross, PhD, co-author of "Changing for Good". According to the report cited on webmd.com, at least 40% of adults make one or more resolutions each year, and at least two-thirds of them vow to change something unhealthy about themselves, according to a small study conducted by Norcross, professor of psychology at the University of Scranton in Pennsylvania. His research concurred that the popular resolutions concern weight gain, fitness and smoking. EAT SMART – DON'T DEPRIVE, BALANCE & MODERATE! Don't diet, an often temporary, periodic, punishing-perceived exercise in futility (no pun intended!). Instead focus on lifelong awareness to dedicate your food choices responsibly while remaining active. Food is essential to living and good food adds greatly to enjoying life. Rather than eliminating desserts or critical carbs, limit them. And avoid trendy fad programs. Low-carbohydrate and high-protein diets limit intake of particular grains, rice, potatoes, pastas, fruits and starchy vegetables. They sometimes encourage meat and fat consumption to promote weight loss. Studies show low-carb diets do help people lose weight in the short term. After a year, however, researchers found no difference in weight loss between the low-carb diet and the standard low-calorie diet. Experts are still waiting for long-term data on low-carb diets. Critics fear the diets will have negative effects on the heart, particularly since fatty foods have been shown to raise risk of heart disease. Many of the restricted foods on the low-carb diet, such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, have also been shown to prevent cancer, and lower risk of heart disease. To lose weight, maintain a well-balanced diet with emphasis on whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Nutritionists recommend three servings of low-fat dairy can also be beneficial. Besides improving bone health, some studies show calcium may make it easier to shed pounds. Instead of a beefsteak, try tuna or salmon steaks. A turkey burger could replace a beef burger. There are also vegetarian meat substitutes. If this does not sound appetizing, try mixing healthy items into the meals you normally eat. For instance, a beef dish could be mixed in with tofu. So you can get some of what you want, but not enough to hurt you. GET THAT PHYSICAL Making a point to be up-to-date on health screenings may not sound sexy, but the tests could help you live longer and healthier. Besides treating ailments, a medical practitioner can screen for potential problems and keep a record of normal fitness levels. Health exams can give doctors a baseline for things like blood pressure and cholesterol. If a person does not go to the doctor, it becomes harder for physicians to determine the severity of a problem, especially later. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends the following screening tests: cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, certain cancers (based on age/lifestyle/family history), depression, STDs (sexually transmitted diseases, some of which don't have signs), and others based on varying factors. Men need prostate checks while women need mammograms, pap smears and bone tests for osteoporosis and other related diseases. There are risks to every exam, including the possibility of an inaccurate report. Overall, though, experts maintain they play an invaluable role in good health. Screenings can't prevent anything, but they can make treatment more effective. Don't wait, make that appointment today. (continued on page 2) Happy New Year from OKMRC

Marmot Earlylight Tent with Footprint and Gear Loft: 2-Person 3-Season
? Share a...
First time out..
Member since
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
After getting soaked with my old tent on a trip to Rossland, I decided it was time for a new tent. After researching I ended up with the Marmot Earlight. The features I wanted (2 vestibules), plus the included footprint for the price seemed to be the best deal. I took it with me to a MT bike trip in Moab. Set it up in a lovely windstorm. The poles did bend a little in the wind, but was still able to set it up by myself (pro). (Con) it blew a nice layer of sand on the bottom of the tent. It then rained all night, I stayed nice and dry... which after the prior trip was sooo nice. Overall I am happy with this tent.
Perfect 1-2 person tent
Member since
Because I like my space, I'm willing to lug the entire setup for myself on most packing trips but if you needed to you can sleep two in this tent and split carrying the weight. Set up is quick and the tent held its ground on a recent trip where gusts of wind were hitting 15-20 mph. throughout the night. At 5'9" I was able to layout comfortable with my gear inside.
Stealth Camping in Germany
Member since
Tent worked out great!! Set it up in the rain (not the tents fault) rather quickly, went up easy, and quick. Of course had to dry the floor inside a bit before throwing the sleeping bag in due to the fly taking a second to put on during set up. No big deal though, water is water, it ultimately will win. After that slept in it in some intermittent rain, kept me nice and dry. The two vestibules were awesome and roomy for my pack!! Here's a pic of it set up next to my fire, letting my pack dry a little (next thing to buy: pack rain cover...). Love it though, can't wait to go again!!!

Quality tent...

- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is an awesome tent for this price range. Marmot has produced a quality tent which is fairly light, easy to set up, and extremely easy to get in and out of. I have used this tent in almost every scenario and it has always preformed. This tent has seen hours of pounding rain, wind gusts of up to 30mph, and light snow. Every tent I have ever owned has leaked or buckled at some point, but this tent has yet to do either. This is a great one person tent, and an adequate two person tent. I originally bought this tent for my wife and I, and while it preformed fine, we decided to purchase the 3 person limelight. So, this is now my 1 person luxury tent, and I would purchase this tent again!
Awesome tent!

- Familiarity: I've used it several times
This is a great, easy to set up, easy to get in and out of tent. It packs down to a perfect size for this style/quality of tent, and it nice and light (In the Bare Bones Setup especially). I don't have much else to say about it... a tent is a tent in my book. I'm happy as long as it sets up fast and keeps me dry and out of the wind. I would agree with DJ's review, however, that this tent is "great" for one person but only "very good" for two people (unless you are looking for a more intimate camping experience...)

BC shows in the specification 3 poles, but Marmot web site shows 2 poles, so how many poles? I have the LimeLight 2 and I returned because I don't want 3 poles, Tks.
Hayden Beck
Member since
Thtent uses three poles when the rainfly is applied. two poles when the tent is not covered.
Tim Coats
Member since
The Earlylight tent has 2 poles. The Limelight 2-P gets an addition brow pole, giving it a total of 3
Tent Review--Marmot Earlylight 2 Person Tent
Member since
I've already used the tent twice in less than a month since I've owned it. The first trip was a 4 day camping trip. The tent performed well although it did collapse once in the 40+ mph wind. I reoriented the tent so that it would be into the wind, and it worked great. The second trip was for an overnight backpacking trip. The tent is super light weight and quite easy to strap to the back of a backpack. The tent would be pretty tight for 2 people, but for myself and all of my gear it worked flawlessly. The 2 vestibules are nice too. It is nice that the tent comes with it's own footprint and gear loft. Finally, the tent has doors on both sides so it makes ingress/egress a snap.
not proud for my purchase
Member since
I am a fan of Marmot. I have bought many products and still happy with the quality and durability..but this one.
i have used it for 6-7 times and the tent did not meet the quality i thought would have. These is my feedback:
The zippers and the main material went out of shape. I have to use the zipper with my both hands to open and close the tent.
Although I had anchored the tent correctly, during a windy night on the beach, dust and sand went through and as a result we couldnt stay in the tent for a long time as we were unable to breath due to the dust. I believe the rain fly is too short
I thought that the footprint would be unnecessary, since I set the tent over sand, but as a result there is a hole on the ground sheet.
A few days ago, during a 3 hours rain at night, although rain didnt come inside, you could feel the moisture in your hands from inside
Great all-around tent
Member since
A fairly simple, well-designed tent at a great price. It's pretty easy to set up, nice space inside for a backpacking tent, and it's very sturdy and waterproof. Definitely 3+ seasons. It's really well-made, and a good value, comes with footprint and gear loft (most brands make you buy those separately.)
My friend and I lived in it for 9 days while exploring Yellowstone and backpacking the Grand Teton Crest trail. We found it very comfy for 2 people. Having 2 doors is worth the extra couple of ounces, and the vestibules are fabulous - easy to get in and out even with all your gear under there. The tent breathes well, had minimal condensation, though in cold weather that little window does fog up. I've been through several storms in this tent, and very happy with it.
I've been guiding wilderness trips for more than a decade, and I highly recommend this tent for beginners through very experienced folks. It's not the lightest thing on the market, but when I want to go light I take a tarp instead. This is great for trips when the weather will be nasty, or I'm taking a less experienced friend and not going far, or for car camping.
Member since
great tent for a single sleeper.
very good for a guy and a girl or children.
just ok for 2 guys.
its huge vertibules really help.

Is That Gabby Giffords Casting A Vote On The House Floor?
Monday, August 1st, 2011Yep! It sure is! Bravo! A wonderful moment for the Democratic party and for those of us who wish District eight's congresswoman the best and a continued speedy recovery.
After watching the Tea Party freshman in the house stall the car before a moving train and after much give from our president and very little help from speaker of the house John Boehner, we witnessed an epic moment in the form of a fighter named Gabrielle Giffords who walked into the house chamber today and cast her vote to raise the debt ceiling.
The clock was running down, and the debt ceiling compromise did not yet have enough Ayes to pass. Then, slowly, applause started trickling through the House chamber. The clapping grew over the next half minute, until finally, the person who somehow managed to draw universal admiration from the frayed body came into view.
Representative Gabrielle Giffords made a surprise appearance Monday evening on the floor of the House of Representatives, the first time she has returned to Washington since she was shot earlier this year in Arizona.
With two minutes remaining on the voting clock, Ms. Giffords entered the chamber through a side door. Her arrival prompted a standing ovation that lasted throughout the remainder of the vote on the compromise to raise the debt ceiling. She was among one of the last representatives to cast her ballot, voting yes on the measure as other affirmative votes put the bill over the top.
"Gabby is voting to support the bipartisan debt-ceiling compromise," said a post on her Facebook page. "This is a huge step in her recovery, and an example of what we all know–she is determined to get better, and to serve CD8 and our nation. This vote–expected to be very close–was simply too important for her to miss."
Ms. Giffords waved and quickly was surrounded by her Democratic colleagues. Some Republicans crossed the aisle to see her, too, as she rose to wave again.
Representative Nancy Pelosi of California, the minority leader, hailed the return of Ms. Giffords, saying: "There isn't a name that stirs more love, more admiration, more respect, more wishing for our daughters to be like her than the name of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords. Thank you, Gabby."
The dramatic arrival capped a day of anticipation on Capitol Hill. She was accompanied by her husband, the astronaut Mark E. Kelly. She left the chamber, walking slowly, but under her own power. Her Twitter account, which has featured dispatches from her staff since she was shot in the head at a Tucson political event in January, finally featured a message from its owner:
The #Capitol looks beautiful and I am honored to be at work tonight.Mon Aug 01 23:12:40 via HootSuiteGabrielle Giffords
Rep_GiffordsRepresentative Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the Democratic whip, said he learned of Ms. Giffords arrival about 30 minutes before she walked onto the House floor. He said that he believed she flew on a government plane to Washington.
"It was very heartening to see her," Mr. Hoyer said. "She wanted to be with her colleagues as she was at the beginning of the year."
Ms. Giffords smiled as she moved through a crowded hallway. She did not answer questions, but raised her hand to wave as she walked into a waiting elevator. She wore a teal shirt and thick glasses, her brown hair cropped short — a contrast from the longer hair she wore before the shooting — but her smile was remarkably similar to how she looked before the shooting seven months ago.

Hairloss or hair thinning (alopecia) is a natural process, caused by heredity, hormones and age. Baldness occurs when the natural shedding of hair which occurs on a daily basis significantly exceeds hair growth.
There is a variety of surgical and no-surgical hair loss treatment options for conditions such as male pattern baldness and hair thinning, but hair transplant is the only permanent method of restoring hair. The principle of hair transplantation is to take strong hair follicles from the back and sides of the head and place them into the thinning or balding areas. This achieves a natural appearance of growth that is undetectable from the individual's existing hair.
The skills and experience of hair transplant surgeons and clinics can vary, so it's important to research what's available to treat hairloss and hair thinning and obtain "references" from previous patients. The Institute of Trichologists, which was founded in 1902, is the leading professional association for trichologists (trichology is the science of the structure, function and diseases of the human hair) in the UK. For the protection of patients, the Institute of Trichologists publishes a Code of Professional Practice and Ethics, by which all practising trichologists who are registered members of the Institute are expected to abide.

text: Music Theories Recordings is proud to announce the release of "X", the new record by fusion pioneers, Tribal Tech. "X" documents the latest musical journey of this revered jazz fusion super group, known for their complex arrangements and phenomenal solo interplay. On "X", the members of Tribal Tech, Scott Henderson, Gary Willis, Scott Kinsey and Kirk Covington once again throw convention out the window, entering the studio without a set list of heavy arrangements. Instead each member brought musical sketches to the table and they turned on the tape machines and bravely set out to play together as a unit. Tribal Tech has delivered perhaps the most phenomenal recording of their impressive 25+ year history as a band. This album embraces the group dynamic. Only when you have a rich band history forged by virtuoso musicians, can you achieve the kind of synergistic genius that Tribal Tech reaches on "X"

Cute! And agree with Cad... can anyone test this with the same OS/HW on a HDD vs SSD? I wonder what the weighting is?
690ti (new to me!), lol and 6950. EDIT: Not sure this like AMD... a 670 scored 10k, but had half the loading time. Seems like it reads where the bench sits?
WOW what a sick benchmark! does it remind anyone else of Dragonball Z?? haha I scored 8877 with the rig in my sys specs @ 1920x1080 and the 670 clocked at 1056 base, 1702 memory
yeah i think i watch all of then and the GT ones but updated my post with 4.5/3.9 just notice the loading times got faster lol
Cool, thanks. I'm actually interested to see how it pans out with some results, if it proves to show some differences with drives, then I might start to include results in my reviews.

This from Tom Gaulrapp, an employee of Sensata for 33-years:
"I hold Mitt Romney responsible because he created Bain Capital. He helped pioneer the outsourcing of good American jobs to China, and he created the model that the company has followed over the years. It's a business model that puts profits above people — at all cost to us back home. And it's the approach he would take as CEO of our country. But Mitt Romney's connection to Sensata is even more direct. He is also personally invested in Sensata Technologies, according to his 2010 and 2011 tax returns, and last year got a huge tax break by moving some of his Sensata stock to one of his foundations. That's right: Mitt Romney got a big tax break on his investment in his company that's shipping my job to China. My pain is Mitt Romney's gain.
[...] Mitt Romney hasn't lifted a finger to help us. Instead, his campaign blamed the outsourcing of our jobs to China on President Obama, because his pension with the Illinois State government has invested in Sensata. The Romney campaign didn't mention Mitt's personal investment in Sensata, the big tax break he got from shifting his Sensata stock to his foundation, or his own role in Bain's longtime practice of outsourcing. Instead of owning up to his past and helping save our jobs, he decided to play politics with our lives. In Romney's world, everyone else is guilty and he's the innocent bystander. Fortunately, our story is beginning to be heard. Last week, I was quoted in an article that was on the front page of the New York Times about Romney, Bain and China. Our country should know that the issues being debated in this presidential election are not abstract, and are playing out everyday in my community. In 20 days, on November 5th, I'll be out of a job."
A vote for Romney is a vote of approval for every American job that's been off-shored to China for the past 30 years.

The exact cause of bed wetting is not always known. Some children are not dry at night as they have not yet learned to control their bladder during sleep. This is described as primary enuresis and is usually due to immaturity of the bladder. Bed wetting can also reoccur in a child who was previously dry during the night (secondary enuresis), sometimes as a result of a life change causing feelings of insecurity such as a new sibling, moving house, or problems at home or school. Often though, there is no obvious cause.
Bed wetting solutions in younger children are not usually discussed in detail because bed wetting under the age of 5 is considered to be generally normal. In children over the age of 5, your GP may be able to help, or may choose to refer you to a specialist doctor or enuresis clinic, where specialist nurses can work with you to find bed wetting solutions. These are available within the NHS and in the private healthcare sector.
In the first instance, blood and urine tests may be taken to rule out any illness or infection. Specific bed wetting solutions are usually centred on motivating and encouraging children with reward charts and stickers to give them a visual reminder of their progress. If the problem continues, follow up bed wetting solutions then involve training your child to wake when they have a full bladder. You can get an alarm that detects dampness and wakes your child before their bladder is fully empty. The alarm may be in the form of a pad on the bed or it can be worn on the body. The aim is to train your child to learn to wake up when their bladder is full without the need for the alarm.
In very persistent cases, drugs can be used as bed wetting solutions. A drug called desmopressin can be used. This is a naturally occurring hormone that acts to reduce the amount of urine produced overnight. Antidepressant drugs are occasionally used, but how they work as bed wetting solutions is not clear. In both cases, the problem is likely to return when the drug treatment is stopped, so alarm training may still be needed. Unless there are anatomical abnormalities, surgical procedures are neither required nor effective as bed wetting solutions.
As well as helping a child and their family overcome bed wetting, private healthcare is also available to treat several other urological conditions including a tight foreskin, which may require circumcision, undecided testes, urinary tract stones and bladder exstrophy – a congenital abnormality that causes part of the bladder to be formed outside the body.

Bluegrass brings pleasure to many
Album 1
[Click on photos below to enlarge.]
[September 23, 2013] Send a link to a friend
ATLANTA -- This weekend it was all about good music, good friends and good times at Hickory Lane Campground in rural Atlanta.
The second annual Dan Tackett Bluegrass Jam took place Friday night, Saturday and Sunday.
On Saturday afternoon, Tackett on the fiddle surrounded by several of his friends treated a packed house to some good old bluegrass pickin' and singin'.
The event was started last year as part of the Railsplitter Festival. This year the Railsplitter weekend in Lincoln was canceled, but there were still things going on in connection with the annual festival, including the bluegrass jam.
In addition to getting to hear some great music, there was a silent auction going on in the shed at the campground, with some very nice items being auctioned off, including several collectibles and antiques.
Many of the folks in attendance had come for the full weekend, and around the campground there were other activities such as a flea market and 1800s crafts demonstrations. There was also a food vendor on hand and plenty of room around the pond for a little fishing.

Best summer holiday destination in India
best summer holiday destination in india ?
2 Answers
It depends on what you want from your summer holiday! How long do you have? And when are you going (summer in India or UK summertime)? If you're after sandy beaches and swimming in the sea and sunbathing, Goa is a good option.
Yeah I agree with Lucy! are you talking about Indian Summertime as the country is so large the hot season differs greatly depending on where and when you are in India.
For sea, sun and beachlife the best and most popular places to visit are Goa, Varkala and Kerala however the best time to visit these places is usually Oct/Nov time when it doesn't rain and the temperature is quite cool. If you were to visit these place during the British Summer period it would be during the monsoon for this region so you might not get too much sun-bathing done.
