What nice Jewish girl hasn't heard this from her mother: "You should meet a nice Jewish boy!"
My mom was no different.
She would constantly urge me, "Go to synagogue. A Jewish mixer. Or a Shabbat dinner. That's where you'll meet lots of nice Jewish men."
But I never cared for organized events. I prefer to meet my men through more everyday-casual-maybe-it-will-happen situations, which is how I met Carl.

Nepalese women are among thousands of Asians who travel to the Middle East in search of employment. They often arrive willingly, but subsequently face conditions that the U.S. State Department says is indicative of forced labor -- the withholding of passports, restrictions on movement, nonpayment of wages for work up to 20 hours a day, threats, deprivation of food and sleep, and physical or sexual abuse.
Sexual harassment is an everyday issue for women in Nepal, particularly in urban areas. Although exact numbers are unavailable, activists say the problem is on the rise and are demanding change. "Harassment is all over Nepal against women and the problem is big. It's more of a problem where more people live, but it really is everywhere, and it is growing," said Pratiya Rana, 22, a university student and an organizer of the country's recent "Walk for Respect" demonstration, the Nepali version of Toronto's SlutWalk, the international protest movement.
The study reviews the formal and customary laws and practices governing the rights of women to inherit land in six South Asian countries (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka). The study includes an analysis of existing laws and customs and their impact on inheritance and land rights in all six countries. It also provides recommendations for how to design interventions that can attempt to improve women's inheritance rights.

STATESBORO, Ga. - True freshman Gonzalo Rubio, playing in just his fourth tournament of the year, led the No. 25 North Texas golf team in the final round of the Schenkel Invitational. Rubio posted a final round of even-par 72 and had the lowest three round score for North Texas at 6-over par 222.
Despite the effort of Rubio, North Texas as a team shot a third-round of 302, its highest for the tournament. The Mean Green dropped to 12th place with a score of 892.
Rubio, who had just three birdies in his previous two rounds, had five birdies on the final round and ended in a tie for 30th place.
Carlos Ortiz finished just one stroke behind Rubio but had a third round of 78. Ortiz was only 1-over par after the first nine holes, but he played the final nine holes at 5-over par to finish in a tie for 36th place.
Jason Roets, who had been the low score for North Texas the first two rounds, had a difficult third round as he posted an 82. Roets struggled right out of the gate with a double bogey and never was able to get on track. He fell into a tie for 46th place.
Rodolfo Cazaubon shot a third round of 75. He was 1-under after the front nine, but a quintuple bogey on the par-3 seventh hole dropped him from even-par to 4-over.
Curtis Donahoe shot a final round of 5-over par 77 on the day. No. 4 Alabama pulled away from the field to win the team title by 10 strokes over No. 6 Texas.
The Mean Green has a few weeks off before returning to the course as they play at the Aggie Invitational on April 6-7.

Northland winter forecast: Colder than normal
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released a 2011-2012 winter outlook today that calls for a better-than-average chance that temperatures will be colder than normal across much of the northern U.S.By: John Myers, Duluth News Tribune
The nation's top forecasters are predicting a colder-than-normal winter across the Northland.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released a 2011-2012 winter outlook today that calls for a better-than-average chance that temperatures will be colder than normal across much of the northern U.S. — from the Pacific Northwest across the Northland and through the Great Lakes — from December through February.
Minnesota, Wisconsin and North Dakota are in the bull's-eye of the area with the highest chance of colder-than-normal weather.
That could be a brisk slap for the Northland, which has seen temperatures well above normal since July, including a whopping 8 degrees warmer than the average temperature so far in October.
The NOAA forecast also calls for increased odds for a snowier winter across northern states, especially in the northern Rockies but also stretching across the Dakotas into Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.
That would be good news for drought-stricken Northeastern Minnesota —lakes and rivers are unusually low — but bad news for the Dakotas, which already have high lake, river and groundwater levels and where more snow could mean more flooding next spring.
Much of the middle of the nation is expected to see close to a normal winter while Texas and the southern plains are predicted to continue in a hot, dry pattern, continuing the worst one-year drought in recorded history in that area.
"The evolving La Niña will shape this winter," Mike Halpert, deputy director of NOAA's Climate Prediction Center, said. "There is a wild card, though. The erratic Arctic Oscillation can generate strong shifts in the climate patterns that could overwhelm or amplify La Niña's typical impacts."
In Duluth, National Weather Service forecasters note that La Niña typically has a less-defined impact on the local winter weather than its warm Pacific cousin, El Niño, which consistently brings mild temperatures and below-normal snowfall to the region.
Recent La Niñas have tended to bring near-normal temperatures but slightly-above-normal snowfall to Duluth.
"La Niñas have been all across the board for us. But we are just one single point across a huge geographic area," Carol Christenson, warning coordination meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Duluth, said. "We have the lake (Superior) that tends to mitigate other factors, and that makes it harder to model from a national perspective."
"It's just an educated guess based on models," she said, "which is what we do for seven days out, and that's hard enough."
The NOAA forecast backs up a prediction earlier this month by AccuWeather.com, which predicted a "brutally cold and snowy" winter for much of the upper Midwest with a jetstream that sets up to repeatedly pull cold arctic air into the Midwest.
"This buildup of snow cover across the Midwest and Great Lakes could act to prolong the colder-than-normal weather beyond February and into early spring," according to the AccuWeather prediction.
This seasonal outlook does not project where and when snowstorms may hit or provide total seasonal snowfall accumulations. Snow forecasts are dependent upon winter storms, which generally are not predictable more than a week in advance.

Depression has been described by experts as maybe America's number one health problem. In fact, the book, "Happiness is a Choice," authored by two Christian medical doctors who are also psychiatrists, says, "we see more people suffering from depression than from all other emotional problems put together." So, how do you know if you are actually "depressed" or just feeling down or blue?
Dear Savvy Senior Is there an age limit on being an organ donor? At age 73, I'm interested in being a donor when I die, but am wondering if they would still want my organs. What can you tell me, and what do I need to do to sign up? Willing But Old
Dear Willing,
Disagreements and conflict are normal in any relationship, and, although most of the content of this week's topic will relate to marriage, much of it can be applied to other relationships as well. Conflicts can be a serious problem for some couples who find themselves continually hassling, fighting, arguing, often about things that may seem to be trivial or minor. These couples will often find that the arguments end up with either or both developing bad feelings, even resentments and serious anger episodes, with very little, if anything getting resolved.
Call it a sign of the times or just plain good luck for those of us yearning to swap fast food fare for some tasty home cooking. Potluck gatherings are back and one of this year's hottest trends in entertaining.
Dear Savvy Senior, I'm worried about my father's driving. At age 84, his driving skills have diminished significantly, but I know he's bound and determined to keep going as long as he's alive. What tips can you recommend that can help me help my dad stop driving? Nervous Daughter
Dear Nervous,
Well, why are you writing an article about the subject of love after the day when everybody (well, almost everybody) did something special for someone special? Well, I do have a reason, maybe many reasons, for this article. You might want to check in your local store to find some real bargains on chocolates and flowers and other things — in fact, 50 percent off is not uncommon.
I do not remember having homemade chicken soup when I was a kid. The first time I ever remember my mother making chicken soup at home was when I was an adult. I was living with my parents briefly, and came down with the flu. Mama made chicken soup from scratch, simmering the chicken and vegetables to make the stock, and then making soup from that. It was wonderful and made me feel so much better.
Could marriage become obsolete? Why is this question being proposed? Well, maybe because the latest statistics reflect this trend in our society. The usual decision — which was reflected in our society in 1960, when 72 percent of all adults, ages 18 and older, were married — has changed percentage-wise to just over 50 percent with some predicting that within a few years the number will drop below the half-way mark. What has happened? Where are we going? Why the overall change? Are there any worthwhile answers?
Dear Savvy Senior What are the 2011 IRS income tax filing requirements for seniors? I had to file and pay federal income taxes last year, but my income dropped and I'm wondering if I'm exempt this year. Recently Retired
Dear Retired,
In 1776, when Thomas Jefferson wrote the wonderful Declaration of Independence, he listed the pursuit of happiness as an "inalienable right," just after "life" and "liberty." Could he and John Adams and others have ever expected that some day people would ever think that "happiness" includes things like a huge TV set, a fancy watch or automobile, or a larger, more luxurious home, or some form of cosmetic surgery?

But their response did not come fast enough to save four lives.
Why didn't they tell the American people what they knew could the scandal cost the president politically.
Peter Johnson junior here to -- -- that Peter.
Yeah let's look at the evidence is Steve -- these new emails demonstrate a real awareness in the White House situation room as to what was going on.
On the ground and that our people were -- we know now and the evidence is in.
That we were not prepared for this attack.
And that we did not -- this attack.
We -- folks from Italy from Spain.
We didn't send the -- the question becomes why didn't we send the men -- with their political calculation that was made to sacrifice Americans on the ground.
So we didn't the kill innocents in front of the consulate.
Question number one question number two and why we're different stories told.
After the event took her choice I would submit there's two issues.
Eight is the al-Qaeda -- al-Qaeda is on its heels we're winning the battle Osama bin Laden is dead sure case over number two.
And guilt let's talk about that -- Shane white guilt.
If I'm the president the secretary of defense and the vice president who meet within an hour of this attack when there's an awareness of the White House right.
And then I climb onto that plane to Las Vegas the next morning they would be an overwhelming sense.
Of despair and grief and hopelessness.
And powerlessness.
What happened why didn't we respond why didn't we save these good men in Ben -- The president is a good man.
-- There was incompetence there was failure and there was a lack of of of response.
So what do we say.
-- with spontaneous.
Event right this is -- right if this is a demonstration this is about a tape.
And so we've got these varying stories.
One -- and an act of terror next moment a spontaneous.
This needs an investigation right this is beyond the presidential.
Election and -- we mention Watergate earlier Watergate happened in 1972 during the presidential election it did.
Two years later Richard Nixon after being reelected was forced out of offshore.
We don't know that high crimes and misdemeanors but we do know that mistakes were made.
Absolutely and Peter we know the people behind here and would bet you know it it's a political season and so the White House may have and there are a lot of people who say you know let's start with -- hoax about yeah it was about the that tape.
But then that ginned up the people in the Middle East because these -- -- about the tape and then they rose up -- and they made it even more.
And people say it started with that hoax the lie but then there was a cover up and now Stonewall is yeah.
Still continuing -- after the Lindsey Graham says it is a Stonewall it is a cover up we need to watch this every day there's so it doesn't happen.
Again that's another duty honor and country that's -- about all right Peter Johnson junior that is.

Since the invention of the wheel, humans have had the urge to see the other side of the hill and beyond. When folks in covered wagons headed west looking for something better, they made their traveling houses as homey as possible, though recreation was far from their minds.
Then as the horseless carriage became a popular mode of transportation, folks sought to get away from urban pressures and increasingly began enjoying the great outdoors. With the ubiquitous Ford Model T putting the country on wheels, it was only a matter of time before handy travel enthusiasts were outfitting their Tin Lizzies with items to make their sojourns a bit more civilized.
RV historians consider 1910 to be the birth of the industry. That's when motorized vehicles built for camping began to be sold on a large scale. Called "auto campers", they made ingenious use of space, providing folding beds, pantry/kitchens with fold-out tables and other conveniences not available to those who slept on terra firma. One thing not provided however, was a bathroom, with the exception was the 1910 Pierce-Arrow Landau, which boasted a potted toilet.
Soon after the "auto campers" came trailers such as the "Camping Trailers", made in Los Angeles and "Auto-Kamp" trailers. Tent trailers began to sprout hard sides and eventually morphed into the fully enclosed rolling homes we see today. The "Wonder House on Wheels" was built by Anheuser-Busch in the 1920s and sold well in spite of its high-at-the-time $535 price tag.
Campers began calling themselves "Tin Can Tourists" in reference to the canned food they ate as well as their mode of transportation. A club by that name was formed around 1919. Members soldered a tin can to the radiator cap to identify one another.
The year 1927 saw the advent of a new towing system. The Aero Coupler, built by Glenn Curtiss whose name was associated with aircraft construction, utilized a long gooseneck hitch that attached through the middle of the spare tire. And so the fifth wheel trailer came to be. As the years rolled along, so did trailers made in different sizes, shapes and forms by a myriad of manufacturers. With larger, more powerful engines becoming available, trailers became larger and featured more amenities.
No trailer treatise would be complete without the mention of the "Airstream". In 1936 Wally Byam introduced the "Airstream Clipper", which has become an icon worldwide for its streamlined, unpainted aluminum, aircraft-like look. In 1955 the Wally Byam Caravan Club was formed by enthusiasts of the brand, and members still get together at rallies.
When the U.S. went to war, workers and material were diverted to the war effort. After peace returned, the troops came marching home, where they started families, bought houses and made outdoor recreation popular once again. Many bought pickup trucks, added slide-in campers and took their families to the great outdoors.
Entry level slide-ins were spartan by today's standards. There was a tank for water, which was pumped to the sink by hand, an ice box containing a block of ice and possibly a little stove of some sort. The master bedroom was the cab overhang at the front. Forgetting where you were could result in a headache if you sat up suddenly in the middle of the night. The kids might sleep on a dinette table that converted to a bed.
As with most things American, campers got bigger and better, extending the length of the truck and adding luxuries like a water pump, propane for heating and cooking, a room for the portable potty and maybe a small TV. During the week the camper could be raised on jacks attached to each corner and the truck could be driven out from under it, and used for daily transportation and chores.
Then came the chassis mount camper. Manufacturers bought bare truck chassis, usually in the one-ton range, and built a permanent camper on the truck frame. That allowed more room and amenities. It was the forerunner of the class C motorhome which uses a van chassis for compactness. Modern class C's can go to 30 or more feet and can be had with slide outs, narrowing the gap between class C and A amenities.
Meanwhile "house cars", as they had been called, became class A motorhomes. They came in a variety of sizes and comfort levels, ranging from wood frames clad in aluminum siding to upscale abodes made by the likes of Vogue and Bluebird's Wander Lodge. Dodge began making a chassis designed for use by the RV makers, which became quite popular.
As time marched on rigs became bigger and better, allowing RVers to bring along more of the comforts of home. Absorption refrigerators, forced air heating and cooling, flush toilets -- the list went on, depending on how deep your pockets were. Corrugated metal siding gave way to smooth laminated panels; generators let families use the new microwave ovens, TV and other electrical accessories without being tethered to an AC outlet. The introduction of the slide-out turned cozy cabins into spacious wheeled chateaus.
As motorized RVs grew larger and heavier, manufacturers began to build on diesel truck chassis in order to handle the extra weight and deliver better fuel mileage. To deal with the noise and heat the diesel engines produced, the engine compartment was moved to the rear and the diesel pusher was born.
In the early 50's, Volkswagen brought out a version of their popular mini bus rigged for camping. It had the necessary amenities such as a bed, sink and table ingeniously built-in. It could be used during the week as family transportation and transformed into a camping vehicle on weekends, all while sipping smaller amounts of fuel in the bargain. Soon companies were modifying domestic vans, building in creature comforts, raising the roof for more headroom and delivering a more maneuverable RV that could be a go-to-work car when not doing duty as a camper. These van conversions were dubbed Class B motorhomes.
Where is the industry headed? With higher fuel prices becoming the norm, RV manufacturers are looking for ways to make RVs lighter and more fuel efficient. New models that are more compact, similar to those found in Europe, are debuting in the U.S. Diesel engines are becoming more popular because of their greater efficiency, plus new fuel standards designed to make diesels cleaner. Newer diesel vehicles are much more civilized compared to their noisy, smoke-belching predecessors. Don't be surprised to see hybrid units with diesel engines running generators to power electric motors, a system used for years by railroads. As an added bonus, the generator can charge the batteries when boondocking.
Much of the heavy wood and steel found in early RVs is already being replaced with lighter, stronger composite materials like carbon fiber that also won't rot or rust. Trailers are becoming leaner for towing behind popular lighter duty pickups and SUVs with smaller, more fuel-efficient engines. Look for solar arrays to become more economical and versatile as a means of generating clean, abundant, renewable power.

And medical devices industry not tell you something it's not just is also if it is paid on -- not profits.
But you have to pay the tax -- company's have to pay the tax even if they don't have any profits they -- pay it so you know these companies operate thin margins and that could tip it into bankruptcy here's what the letter writers warned.
Also look at impact.
Other people adversely impact.
Patient care increase the cost of health care and adversely impact -- -- as well as jobs so the deal here is that the complaint is probably float -- so why tax -- device manufacturers as if they're taxing.
You know an excise tax on cigarettes or alcohol because this is what right it's an excise tax.

Think that this is gonna do that of the industry overall because it looks at it seems like it what it would.

Medical technology industry they might actually you know.
Move ahead of the United States and innovation.
That's the point MER ID is already being outsource -- -- -- -- as saying look.
We are already pulling back on R&D hearing on -- -- and investing in plants and equipment here in the United States.
So naturally that would affect job growth here again 42000 job -- -- is a big number that 80% all in rate they now face is a big number ten a surtax on gear makers when drug makers emerged unscathed.

AIG board weighing joining suit against US
Posted: 01/09/2013
Last Updated:
336 days ago
NEW YORK - American International Group Inc.'s board today will take up whether to join or try to block a shareholder lawsuit against the federal government over the insurer's $182 billion bailout by the government.
Starr International Co. Inc. -- the investment firm of former AIG CEO Maurice "Hank" Greenberg -- filed the lawsuit on behalf of the firm and AIG shareholders. The complaint asserts the government didn't provide shareholders just compensation when it took a nearly 80 percent stake in the insurer as part of the bailout.
AIG says by law its board of directors must consider the matter. A decision from the company could come by the end of the month.
The possibility the company could join the suit has already sparked a response from lawmakers. Massachusetts Congressman Michael Capuano and Vermont Congressman Peter Welch have sent the company a letter warning against the move, calling it the height of corporate ingratitude.

There's debate over sanctions relief to Iran ahead of more nuclear talks in Geneva. But are sanctions effective? Suzanne DiMaggio writes for the New York Times' "Room for Debate" about how sanctions affected the reform process in Myanmar.
Since reforms began in Myanmar nearly three years ago, writes Matt Stumpf, countless corporations have visited the country in search of opportunities. Yet excitement about this new market has been tempered by wider recognition of the barriers to investment.

Simply Smiling Can Actually Reduce Stress
It sounds like the most useless advice imaginable: Just put on a happy face. Conventional wisdom is that smiling is an effect of feeling happy, rather than the other way around. Simply smiling in stressful situations can't possibly make you feel any better, right?
Wrong. A fascinating new study by University of Kansas psychologists that will soon be published in the journal Psychological Science indicates that, in some circumstances, smiling can actually reduce stress and help us feel better.
"Age old adages, such as 'grin and bear it,' have suggested smiling to be not only an important nonverbal indicator of happiness but also wishfully promotes smiling as a panacea for life's stressful events," said researcher Tara Kraft. "We wanted to examine whether these adages had scientific merit; whether smiling could have real health-relevant benefits."
To investigate the claim, the researchers recruited 169 willing college students for a hands-on experiment. But they had to engage in a bit of deception. Actually telling the participants that they were testing whether smiling would make them happier would have distorted the results, so the students were told that the experiment was about multi-tasking.
First, the participants were instructed on how to perform an unusual task: holding chopsticks in their mouths in particular ways that prompted various facial expressions. They were divided into three groups, one that was taught how to form a neutral expression, one that learned how to form a normal smile, and one that was instructed to form a Duchenne smile (also known as a genuine smile), which involves the use of eye muscles, as well as those around the mouth. Additionally, only half of the smilers actually heard the world "smile" during the learning phase; the others were simply taught how to hold the chopsticks in a way that produced smiles, without the expression being identified as such.
Next, the students were put in "multi-tasking situations" that were intentionally designed to be stressful. In the first one, they were asked to trace a star shape with their non-dominant hand while looking only at a mirror image of it, and were misled about the average person's accuracy in completing the task. While attempting to execute the maneuver with as few errors as possible to win a reward (a chocolate), they were continually reminded to hold the chopsticks in their mouths to maintain the intended facial expression. Afterward, they were instructed to do the same as their hands were submerged in ice water.
During and after each of these tasks, the participants' heart rates were continuously monitored, and at regular intervals, they were asked to report their levels of stress.
The experiment's findings were startling. As a whole, the smilers had lower heart rates while recovering from the stressful tasks than those who had assumed neutral expressions, and those with Duchenne smiles had lower heart rates yet. Even those who were smiling only due to their instructed chopstick position—without explicitly being told to smile—showed the same effect. Since heart rate is an indicator of the body's stress response, it seems as though the act of smiling actually reduced the participants' overall stress level.
Most intriguingly, a small difference was noted in the self-reported stress levels of the groups after the ice water task. Although the amount of positive feelings declined for all participants after putting their hands in ice water, the decline was slightly smaller for smilers than for those with neutral expressions.
Researchers are baffled regarding why this might happen. The connection between facial expressions and underlying mental states is still largely unexplored, but some have suggested that smiling could reduce levels of cortisol, a stress-related hormone. This study flips our traditional understanding of emotion and appearance on its head: Feeling good could sometimes be a consequence of smiling, not just the other way around.
What does this mean for your daily life? When feeling stressed, try forcing a smile on your face. If you can manage a genuine, Duchenne smile—what people often refer to as "smiling with your eyes," not just your mouth—that's even better. For whatever reason, forcing yourself to look happier could actually end up helping you feel happier.
"The next time you are stuck in traffic or are experiencing some other type of stress you might try to hold your face in a smile for a moment," said Sarah Pressman, one of the researchers. "Not only will it help you 'grin and bear it' psychologically, but it might actually help your heart health as well."

I think I have must have always have known this. I look for humor in everyday things; love puns; and subscribe to receive humorous postcards in the mail!
Very thanks for your post its refreshing.
This is such a wonderful article that I had to print it out and share it with the rest of my office at Dish. I've been preaching for years about the effects a smile can have on stress levels. Now, I have something to back me up! Whenever I feel the pangs of stress, I always take a break and catch a few jokes from a funny video or show to make me smile. If I'm not at home, I use my Dish Remote Access app to connect my tablet to my home TV through the sling adapter, so I can smile and giggle along to an episode of 30 Rock from anywhere. I didn't realize there was an actual science to it though!
This is another example of research being used to prove the obvious. I have always been aware of the power of the smile, not only to make yourself feel good but to make others feel good. Even smiling while talking on the phone is effective. The smile is always "transmitted" just as the words are. Smiling and laughing are among the greatest health remedies.
If you are fairly introspective you can easily observe the effect of smiling on emotions. Sit quietly (with a comfortably relaxed body and face) while feeling emotionally neutral or slightly "negative" (bored, anxious, depressed, etc.). Then "do a smile". If you are anything like me, you will feel a positive emotional shift. Relaxing the face "out of" the smile will shift the emotional state back toward the neutral or negative.
This is hardly surprising, given the importance of psychological association, fire-together-wire-together and similar phenomena. When we "do a smile" our brains receive feedback from the face that is associated with or "wired with" a positive emotional valence. It seems plausible that this feedback either *causes* the positive emotional bias or perhaps even partially *constitutes* it. But that is for psychologists to figure out. Interesting indeed!
This phenomenon is discussed in "Blink", by Malcolm Gladwell, and in the TED video by Ron Gutman (http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/en/ron_gutman_the_hidden_power_of_smiling.html).
During and after extensive treatment , operations, radiation, etc for cancer I used this as therapy many times a day. It worked immediately and constantly through the ordeal. I attributed it to a release of endorphins. I also avoided people who were known to be negative. Whatever, it got me through some very stressful and fearful times. That was 15 yrs. ago.
Thanks for this article! I have been under much stress at work for a couple of years and I know it showed in my countenance. Then a stranger came up to me at an outdoor concert recently and out of the blue said I looked angry. It was a wakeup call. I immediately knew right then that I had to start smiling and do it often and everywhere. It has made a huge difference in my life even just the short time I have been consciously smiling everywhere I go.
I read about a similar experiment done with Harvard students possibly over 20 years ago. It made complete sense to me. I tried to encourage my severely depressed daughter to read the article – the corners of her mouth were always down and her eyes were dead looking. As daughters will, she did not follow my suggestion.
As I viewed your article I caught myself smiling…just looking at the smiling picture! And I tried relaxing from a smile to a negative face…and felt the come-down. Maybe that is why I am almost always smiling! I keep happy. When stress happens I know it is temporary. Because I know I have God within me, my life is a perpetual smile. I never thought about it before the article, so thank you. It makes me realize why people I don't know well greet me enthusiastically and mention the smile: they smile too when they see mine, and the atmosphere changes. Sniles are important to the chain-reactions that bring about joy.
MY ADRENAL GLANDS DO NOT PRODUCE CORTISOL. PEOPLE TELL ME THAT I SMILE A LOT IN STRESSFUL SITUATIONS. THEY FEEL IT ISN'T A NORMAL RESPONSE TO STRESS. MAYBE THAT IS BECAUSE MY ADRENAL GLANDS DON'T PRODUCE ANY CORTISOL. HAVING NO CORTISOL, MIGHT PRODUCE A Duchenne SMILE IN STRESSFUL SITUATIONS. THIS WOULD MEAN THE SMILING IS EASIER WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE ANY CORTSOL.
FROM THE ARTICLE: Researchers are baffled regarding why this might happen. The connection between facial expressions and underlying mental states is still largely unexplored, but some have suggested that smiling could reduce levels of cortisol, a stress-related hormone. This study flips our traditional understanding of emotion and appearance on its head: Feeling good could sometimes be a consequence of smiling, not just the other way around.
Yet another argument for the benefits of Laughter Yoga. :-)
Most plausible bit of research I've seen reported today!
I have often observed people who work with children say things such as, "Get that smile off your face! This isn't funny." I wish those people could have read this article sixty years ago. It might have saved many an innocent child from unnecessary tirades. Some people responsible for children,simply rant at the first child they see after something has gone wrong. The first child they see may simply be the one who didn't run away fast enough-perhaps didn't know that there was anything to run away from.
When my 17 year old son, Paul, was dying of Lymphoma in his own bed with a home hospice supported by Denver's Childrens Hospital Paul reached his hand up from his bed as I leaned over him to touch the corner of my mouth saying: "Mom, would you please smile that great smile of yours. It will help alot." I have tried these 31 years since his young death to keep on smiling.
Yes, actually it does. Smiling can reduce a bit stress. And even in work, if you really do like your job and you are happy doing it, then it can also reduces your stress that you might get from your hardwork.

In Brief
- We can will ourselves to forget; a neural circuit like the one that inhibits actions governs the ability to reject memories we neither want nor need.
- Emerging data provide support for Sigmund Freud's controversial theory of repression, by which unwanted memories are shoved into the subconscious.
- The inability to forget can impede emotional recovery in trauma victims; it is also associated with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder.
- If you practice rebuffing recollections, you are likely to get better at it.

Memory in the Brain [Interactive]
8 Ways To Forget Your Troubles
Solomon Shereshevsky could recite entire speeches, word for word, after hearing them once. In minutes, he memorized complex math formulas, passages in foreign languages and tables consisting of 50 numbers or nonsense syllables. The traces of these sequences were so durably etched in his brain that he could reproduce them years later, according to Russian psychologist Alexander R. Luria, who wrote about the man he called, simply, "S" in The Mind of a Mnemonist.
But the weight of all the memories, piled up and overlapping in his brain, created crippling confusion. S could not fathom the meaning of a story, because the words got in the way. "No," [S] would say. "This is too much. Each word calls up images; they collide with one another, and the result is chaos. I can't make anything out of this." When S was asked to make decisions, as chair of a union group, he could not parse the situation as a whole, tripped up as he was on irrelevant details. He made a living performing feats of recollection.

Belgium in a nutshell!
© Bitc-JPLVandewiele
Belgium is the country of beer (), chocolate (), and comic strips (Belgian Comic Strip Centre - BCSC (BRUXELLES)). It is hard not to fall for the charms of our kingdom (Royal Brussels). Warm-heartedness, surrealism (), creation and especially our entrepreneurship only begin to characterize us.
Our country has a central location in the heart of Europe (EUROPEAN COMMISSION (BRUXELLES), COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (BRUXELLES)), and has been Burgundian, Spanish, Austrian, French and even Dutch throughout time! That is why visitors find so many things of beauty: art, gastronomy, architecture( Architectural Heritage) and of course our nature (Sports & Relaxation).
So, don't hesitate to visit our two vibrant, colourful and cosmopolitan regions: Brussels (Brussels, City of the Arts), Capital of Belgium and of the Belgian French-speaking Community and the Capital of Europe, and the south of the country, visitor friendly Wallonia (A few words on Wallonia), which includes the Belgian Ardennes (And what about the Ardennes? ...).
Belgium is also an important European nightlife scene (): "hip" youngsters and other night owls specialised in the "latest trends" love to come here.
That is why our small federal country, where the European institutions are located, is undoubtedly the perfect tourist destination!
If you want to learn more about Belgium, from politics to culture, from the educational system to our history, we gladly recommend you the following official websites:

I went on SH last night for the first time since the latest patch was deployed ,even though there weren't that many active matches going on which was strange, I had an absolute blast and all the games I played were far more balanced. They were really close tense, exciting matches which was great. Kudos to the devs for fixing.
I really hope this is how it'll be from now on, if it is then I'll be playing SH for a very long time.

Execellent - my missus is out today and I'm at home on the laptop - will squeeze a game in at lunchtime. From reading the Dev Blog they do seem to have got it right, the only ommision on the tip of my tongue is cluster bomb blues, but can live with that.
For anyone who fancies, our clan meet every Wednesday 10pm and we've got half a dozen confirmed, why not join us? Message MrJimmy for an add, or just join the clan on my sig link

I'm ever so slightly upset that they removed sniper rifle damage on tanks entirely. I mean, it is a railgun after all!
But yes - overall the patch is totally awesome and I feel like I can get in a Hawk a) without being slaughtered within seconds and b) actually feel proud of my skill as I blow up everything in sight

Great job guys, remove the best anti-tank weapon. If a driver is stupid enough to sit and take pot shots from a railgun, then he deserves everything he gets. It's not even like it was a three hit kill or anything, you needed at least 6 or 7 shots to destroy it, which means you're reloading twice, under pressure to finish it off. Bull *****.
Oh well, I guess I've still got my grenades........ what the?!
Come on, this is stupid. So next time I'm about to be stomped by a Mech I have to basically take it. Or maybe when I'm outnumbered against enemy troops I can't even rely on a decent number of grenades to turn the tide.

Come On Over is an Emmy Award-winning musical comedy for kids and families that models creative play and includes fun discussion points, scripture, prayer, and suggested family activities.
Come On Over! (COO!) is an Emmy Award-winning musical comedy for kids and families that models creative play. The 23-minute episodes follow Joel and his quirky friends as they play through all sorts of situations. Joel is an artist whose art studio and backyard act as the primary setting to burst into music videos, whimsical make-believe, hands-on arts based projects and a whole range of silliness. All the while COO! models healthy choices and family values. Regular friends bring enthusiasm (Brandy), encouragement (Grandma Zippy), smarts (Hedge), and even skepticism (Mr. Flabbinjaw). As needed, a range of experts "come on over" to play through dance or theatre or rock-n-roll guitar. Anything can happen through play: mad scientists, giant tinfoil spaceships, Bubble-ologists, flying hedgehogs and more!
The themes of COO! are enhanced by faith-building activities that are a part of the DVD booklet. These materials include fun discussion points, games, and scripture that encourage families to play and pray together.

The Two and a Half Men writers' room needs to start using more original material, according to Roseanne Barr.
In a Twitter rant over the weekend, Barr accused star Ashton Kutcher and creator Chuck Lorre (who was a supervising producer on Roseanne in the 1990s) of ripping off a joke from her stand-up routine. Later, she recanted her claim against Kutcher and Lorre, but maintained that someone on the writing staff stole her material.
Season 9, Episode 19 When Darlene gives birth to a very premature baby, the doctors offer very little hope for the child\'s survival. But Roseanne sets out to prove that love, affection and human contact are better than any medicine.

Sara Gilbert may be out and proud now, but the actress struggled for years before coming out publicly in 2010.
On Thursday's The Talk, in honor of the show's "secrets" week, Gilbert discussed her battle to accept her sexuality when she was still onRoseanne. At the time, Gilbert had been dating her co-star Johnny Galecki, but after the couple would make out, Gilbert would always get depressed. Confused, Galecki would take this personally, until she "eventually told him I thought it was about my sexuality and he was super sweet about it."

Lecy Goranson, who played the original Becky on Roseanne, never kept up with the show after she left for good in its penultimate season — and, as a result, she didn't even know that her on-screen father, Dan (John Goodman), died in the series finale.

Sinopia is the second route from the left. This route looks Waaay easier than it is. Stick clip the first bolt, because it looks 5.7...but it's not. Climb past three bolts including the first up a corner which deposits you on a ledge. Sit, lay down, have lunch, whatever, but rest before tackling the headwall. Clip two bolts off the ledge and tackle the first crux. Either a big throw if your tall or pimpin' small grips if not. Shake out and head left to the next crux, technical climbing brings you to the lip and final clip. Don't fall here. There is a kind of a funky last move getting established on the slab. A good route.
8-9 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor.
I had left draws and a cam on Sinopia at the end of December '07, I noticed recently that they are gone and different draws in place. If anyone has my gear, I would love to get it back. Cheers
Great route for a summer morning. The trick for me was figuring out the move off the sloping shelf past the 5th bolt. There are several ways to do this lunge move, but only one worked for me. A second crux past 6th bolt was powerful but more obvious. Still more 5.12 above. This climb has a total of four 5.12 section in a row. The 5.11d dihedral start can feel pretty burly too.
We were up here today...anyone know what the thin recently bolted face start to the immediate left of the Sinopia start is? It is quite thin, sharp and devious....
There is also a line that shares the first crux and then, from the jug, goes right through another crux and up to the slab.
That is Sin Gaz. 12c-ish? Kind of fun but not as good as Sinopia.
And the direct left start on the Z-seams would be "Con Gaz," or at least that's what we were calling it, but we never could do it. V-double-digit something or other, open project, start with the first bolt stick-clipped, have at it, don't trash your right shoulder....
I agree that it is definitely harder than it looks, but still not 13a. Fun route, though.
