Ginseng (GINSENG, AMERICAN) Overview Information
American ginseng is an herb. The root is used to make medicine.
American ginseng is used for stress, to boost the immune system, and as a general tonic and stimulant.
American ginseng is often used to fight infections such as colds and flu. There is some evidence that it might help prevent colds and flu and make symptoms milder when infections do occur.
American ginseng is used for other infections including HIV/AIDS, infections of the intestine (dysentery), and particular infections (Pseudomonas infections) that are common in people with cystic fibrosis.
Some people use American ginseng to improve digestion and for loss of appetite, as well as for vomiting, inflammation of the colon (colitis), and inflammation of the lining of the stomach (gastritis).
American ginseng is also used for low iron in the blood (anemia), diabetes, trouble sleeping (insomnia), nerve pain, erectile dysfunction (ED), fever, hangover symptoms, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), blood and bleeding disorders, cancer, painful joints, dizziness, headaches, convulsions, fibromyalgia, "hardening of the arteries" (atherosclerosis), memory loss, and as an anti-aging aid.
You may also see American ginseng listed as an ingredient in some soft drinks. Oils and extracts made from American ginseng are used in soaps and cosmetics.
Don't confuse American ginseng with Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus) or Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng). They have different medicinal effects.
Wild American ginseng is becoming rare because it is so popular and has so many uses. Some states have declared American ginseng a threatened or endangered species because so many people try to harvest it.
How does it work?
American ginseng contains chemicals called ginsenosides that seem to affect insulin levels in the body and lower blood sugar. Other chemicals, called polysaccharides, might affect the immune system.
Ginseng (GINSENG, AMERICAN) Uses & Effectiveness
Possibly Effective for:
- Diabetes. Taking 3 grams of American ginseng by mouth, up to two hours before a meal, can lower blood sugar after a meal in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, larger doses do not seem to lower blood sugar more. Different American ginseng products may have different effects. Researchers think that is because they contain different amounts of the active chemicals called ginsenosides.
- Respiratory tract infections. Some evidence suggests that taking a specific American ginseng extract called CVT-E002 (Cold-FX, Afexa Life Sciences, Canada), 200 mg twice daily over a 3-4 month period during flu season, might prevent cold or flu symptoms in adults between the ages of 18 and 65. People older than 65 seem to need a flu shot at month 2 along with this treatment in order to decrease their risk of getting the flu or colds. This extract also seems to help make symptoms milder and last a shorter length of time when infections do occur. Some evidence suggests that the extract might not reduce the chance of getting the first cold of a season, but it seems to reduce the risk of getting repeat colds in a season.
Possibly Ineffective for:
- Athletic performance. Taking 1600 mg of American ginseng by mouth for 4 weeks does not seem to improve athletic performance; however, lab tests show that it might decrease muscle damage during exercise.
- High blood pressure. Research suggests that taking 3 grams of American ginseng daily for up to 12 weeks does not affect blood pressure in people with high blood pressure.
Insufficient Evidence for:
- Attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). There is early evidence that a specific product (AD-fX, Afexa Life Sciences, Canada), containing American ginseng extract in combination with ginkgo leaf extract, might help improve ADHD symptoms such as anxiety, hyperactivity, and impulsiveness in children aged 3-17 years.
- Breast cancer. Some studies conducted in China suggest that breast cancer patients treated with any form of ginseng (American or Panax) do better and feel better. However, this may not be a result of taking the ginseng, because the patients in the study were also more likely to be treated with the prescription cancer drug tamoxifen. It is difficult to know how much of the benefit to attribute to ginseng.
- Cancer-related fatigue. Early research suggests that taking 700-2000 mg of American ginseng daily for 8 weeks does not reduce fatigue in people with cancer.
- Mental performance. Some evidence suggests that taking one 100-400 mg dose of American ginseng improves short-term memory and reaction time before a mental test.
- Menopausal symptoms. Early evidence suggests that taking a product containing American ginseng, black cohosh, dong quai, milk thistle, red clover, and chasteberry tree (Phyto-Female Complex) twice daily for 3 months reduces menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes, night sweats, and sleep quality.
- Stress.
- Anemia.
- Insomnia.
- Gastritis.
- Impotence.
- Fever.
- Fibromyalgia.
- Other conditions.
Ginseng (GINSENG, AMERICAN) Side Effects & Safety
American ginseng is POSSIBLY SAFE in adults and children when used short-term. It can cause some side effects including diarrhea, itching, trouble sleeping (insomnia), headache, and nervousness. In some people, American ginseng might also cause rapid heartbeat, increased blood pressure or decreased blood pressure, breast tenderness, vaginal bleeding in women, and other side effects. Uncommon side effects that have been reported include a severe rash called Stevens-Johnson syndrome, liver damage, and severe allergic reaction.
Special Precautions & Warnings:Pregnancy and breast-feeding: American ginseng is POSSIBLY UNSAFE in pregnancy. One of the chemicals in Panax ginseng, a plant related to American ginseng, has been linked to possible birth defects. Do not take American ginseng if you are pregnant.
Not enough is known about the safety of American ginseng during breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
Diabetes: American ginseng might lower blood sugar. In people with diabetes who are taking medications to lower blood sugar, adding American ginseng might lower it too much. Monitor your blood sugar closely if you have diabetes and use American ginseng.
Hormone-sensitive conditions such as breast cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancer, endometriosis, or uterine fibroids: American ginseng preparations that contain chemicals called ginsenosides might act like estrogen. If you have any condition that might be made worse by exposure to estrogen, don't use American ginseng that contains ginsenosides. However, some American ginseng extracts have had the ginsenosides removed (Cold-fX, Afexa Life Sciences, Canada). American ginseng extracts such as these that contain no ginsenosides or contain only a low concentration of ginsenosides do not appear to act like estrogen.
Trouble sleeping (insomnia): High doses of American ginseng have been linked with insomnia. If you have trouble sleeping, use American ginseng with caution.
Schizophrenia (a mental disorder): High doses of American ginseng have been linked with sleep problems and agitation in people with schizophrenia . Be careful when using American ginseng if you have schizophrenia.
Surgery: American ginseng might affect blood sugar levels and might interfere with blood sugar control during and after surgery. Stop taking American ginseng at least 2 weeks before a scheduled surgery.
Ginseng (GINSENG, AMERICAN) Interactions
Major Interaction Do not take this combination
- Warfarin (Coumadin) interacts with GINSENG, AMERICAN
Warfarin (Coumadin) is used to slow blood clotting. American ginseng has been reported to decrease the effectiveness of warfarin (Coumadin). Decreasing the effectiveness of warfarin (Coumadin) might increase the risk of clotting. It is unclear why this interaction might occur. To avoid this interaction do not take American ginseng if you take warfarin (Coumadin).
Moderate Interaction Be cautious with this combination
- Medications for depression (MAOIs) interacts with GINSENG, AMERICAN
American ginseng might stimulate the body. Some medications used for depression can also stimulate the body. Taking American ginseng along with these medications used for depression might cause side effects such as anxiousness, headache, restlessness, and insomnia.
Some of these medications used for depression include phenelzine (Nardil), tranylcypromine (Parnate), and others.
- Medications for diabetes (Antidiabetes drugs) interacts with GINSENG, AMERICAN
American ginseng might decrease blood sugar. Diabetes medications are also used to lower blood sugar. Taking American ginseng along with diabetes medications might cause your blood sugar to go too low. Monitor your blood sugar closely. The dose of your diabetes medication might need to be changed.
Some medications used for diabetes include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), chlorpropamide (Diabinese), glipizide (Glucotrol), tolbutamide (Orinase), and others.
Ginseng (GINSENG, AMERICAN) Dosing
The following doses have been studied in scientific research:
- For reducing blood sugar after a meal in people with type 2 diabetes: 3 grams up to 2 hours before a meal. American ginseng should be taken within 2 hours of a meal. If it is taken too long before eating, the blood sugar might become too low.
- For preventing upper respiratory tract infections such as the common cold or flu: a specific American ginseng extract called CVT-E002 (Cold-fX, Afexa Life Sciences, Canada) 200 mg twice daily for 3-4 months has been used.

There will be a hard core PvP game in SC. But there will also be a game for others that dont enjoy PvP as much. No safe zones but some are safer. In lawless areas i can attack anyone, even you if you enter my space. Everyone can be attacked everywhere but risk for the attacker is way higher in safer areas. I like risk vs reward games and that is what SC is.
There will also be non-consensual PvP and griefing in SC.
This you cant find in Shroud of the Avatar and thats why i most likely will play Star Citizen instead. I payed for both and will try both but so far Star Citizen seems to be my type of game.

Full Loot does not make PvP more immersive nor "better", it will in fact reduce the amount of PvP, and here are the reasons why:
1 - Full Loot just supports ganking and griefing
A full loot system will only support group griefing. You won't find fair 1 vs 1 (2 vs 2 etc.) situations in a full loot world, which will end up with the bad ol' counter argument "Then go play in a guild bi**ch", which won't work either, because you force players in certain roles, that the greater amount of peope will not like.
2 - Loosing your Gear due to point 1 prevents 'casual' people from taking part in PvP encounters
Because the don't have the backup from a guild constantly re-equipping them when they die. That means extremly boring crafting and reequipment times, that simply will stop the player from taking part in PvP or even make him quit.
3 - Due to 2, "Casual" Players don't will seek combat actively
The much liked "Sheriff" playstyle or simply an initiative to fight a possibly stronger opponent gets completely annoying.
Those points are often combined with silly gameplay decisions, that will increment the frustration of players:
- Due to full loot, Equipment must be rather fast replaceable, which means that gear has no meaning or representive purpose anymore, everyone playing in a guild will have the same cooky butter gear, the casuals will have low tier stuff which will disadvantage them even more.
- Due to full loot combined with perma-death of mounts, the reequipment process gets even worse. Your mount is nothing but a fire and forget way to just move through the world, bye bye immersion or personality.
- Due to shared Skill points, alternate chars / twinks etc. loose the ability to put enough points into combat, which makes them pure victims in the wilderness (see 1)
- many more issues here, like to much gear dependent advantages, too much alts per account etc. etc.
The solution would be to replace the dull player ganking with game mechanics that are TRULY immersive and valuable, like meaningfull territory control of rare points of interests, to get rid of frustrating points like i stated above and to add mechanics, that will make simple ganking uninteresting. Then you got meaningfull PvP, but I have the feeling, that most of the "hardcore" flicks out there don't want that, because the like to be the gankers themselfes.
Oh, and if you are asking: A perfect example of not doing it right is Mortal Online.

Full loot pvp games, always dont last long, unless the pvp is wanted by both sides. Those games, besides one have the worst people imaginable playing. The only people that end up staying, are lonely grumpy men, and their wives, or young kids. All they do all day, is complain about their lives, and then complain about the lives in the game.

Yeah UO felucca was blooming even after trammel and that showed the potential full loot non-consensual games have. There are so many players that would love to play a new UO.
SotA would be more successful and have more followers if they like Star Citizen went full loot and had non-consensual PvP.

UO that was the only AAA fantasy online MMO game with non-consensual PvP and full loot prove you wrong. EA destroyed UO with Age of Shadows, made UO a WoW-game. The game continued on freeshards successfully for +5 years. All felucca freeshards together had more followers then the original game.
Largest freeshard had +150 000 members another had +100 000 members.
The market for a non-consensual full loot game is out there, just need a AAA developer make one.
Star Citicen is going the right way and thats why they are so much more successful then Shroud of the Avatar.

SoTA was made by the same guy that made UO. If UO really does prove that full loot pvp is the way to go, then Richard Garriot probably will have full loot PvP. If it didn't and eveyrones' mistaken due to whatever possible fault, then he probably won't.

Well, until Everquest came out and there was an actual choice. Once there was a place to go that didn't have ffa full loot pvp, people went.
Edit: It isn't a coincidence that in 2000, a year after EQ launched, the UO: Renaissance expansion added Trammel which gave those who didn't want a ffa experience a place to go. It also isn't coincidence that the population peaked 2 years later, so it was at its highest when there was an option to avoid ffa pvp.

Look at Star Citizen with full loot and non-consensual PvP, they have 10 times as many pledgers. I wonder why?
Originally posted by niceguy3978
It was also at it's highest when it still had non-consensual PvP with full loot in felucca, the real UO.
Europe server felucca was just as crowded as trammel was february 2003 when EA destroyed UO with Age of Shadows.
After UO became a carebear game it went downhill with subscribers, had nothing to do with felucca, full loot or non-consensual PvP.
Also, why would ANYONE prefer SOTA to minecraft anarchy server?
In Minecraft you can craft and build.
You can explore.
You play a role.
You can kill other players, steal their loot and rob their house in anarchy servers.
SOTA - something fail this way comes
Not enough shiny for carebaars
Not enough hardcore for hardcore crowd

Of course levels are autist tier and simply grinding your level to get better stats and then gank lower players is very retarded.
This is why Garrott should instead make it so player skill matters first and foremost.
In UO you could be a newb and still trick some more experienced players and get their stuff.
You could place traps, hide, poison food, etc...
This is the smart way to implement PvP.
Will Garrott do this? No, because developers HATE FUN!
They HATE fun, HATE innovation, HATE challenges and LOVE carebarism.
That's what's wrong with the world today.
Keep on rockin'!
It is. It makes the game most realistic and fun. It's fun, because it produces real cortisol and dopamine in your and also the rewards give more pleasure as you are actually taking away something from another person. It's much better to just "grind mobs". That can be done in single player games. It's really awful that devs are so ignorant and there are so few full pvp, player looting games around. There is Minecraft, but only some servers. And minecraft is insanely popular. Proof that sandbox and anarchy = good.
Wow...just wow...this game is dead
Because it's logic. Idea of Mortal Online - realistic, first person, skill based, full pvp, full loot RPG. It's a PERFECT setup. AAA title. Execution - bug ridden piece of manure. Result = fail. If Blizzard did this, it would be best MMO ever.
They are. UO is taking names and kicking ass for 10 years now (well, Trammel and AoS carebare land ruined a lot), EVE online as well. Darkfall and Mortal Online failed because of technical newbism. And Minecraft is also taking names (yes, it's a full loot pvp, because on anarchy servers you can kill players, steal their stuff, ruin their homes, etc...it doesn't get more hardcore than that)
How do you know what % it is? It's logic that this game will flop because it doesn't cater neither to hardcores, neither to carebare plebs. It's nothing really.
Sounds like something 15 year olds come up with. "Itw ill have umm lasers ,and MINING and Dragons and Player VS Player and PVE, And treasure hunting, and and ANd!"
When you try to design something for everyone, you fail. Either the game is hardcore, or it isn't. Trying to find something in the middle will just make both types of players hate the game.
Then pay someone protection money. What... 2real4u?
Then they shouldn't leave their safe little city dwelling where the wild things roam (and pks)! 2stressful4u?
That's great! Maybe actually it's time when PLAYER SILLS STARTS MATTERING?
The only reason MO failed is because sloppy programming and bugs. The game was intended perfectly otherwise.
Keep on rockin'!

WoW started off as one of the most bug ridden pieces of software ever. They dumped tons of development into the game post release because so many people showed up to play. "So many people" did not show up to play Mortal Online prior to everyone realizing the game was so poorly written.
I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

Dont you see the difference?
Just about all oldschool UO players that pledged cause they were looking forward to the next UO will not show up on release day when they finally realize that Shroud of the Avatar is just another carebear game. A game where developers do all they can to please the carebear crowd. Even PvP is developed to please the less skilled PvE player.
This game is probably the game i as a hardcore PvP gamer feel most disapointed in, ever. It could have to do with the fact that Richard Garriott is behind it, i never thought he could sell out as he did. What could have been the next UO game is turning out to be just another carebear trammel game.
And these oldschool UO gamers is not 1% of the playerbase, the guy that claimed that have no clue whatsoever. It's not a coincidence that the hardcore PvP players instead for SotA will play Star Citizen, a game with non-consensual PvP and full loot. We that have developed our gameplay dont like the trammel gameplay, we want risk vs reward and consequences. So SC having 10 times more pledgers tell me that the PvP crowd is almost as big if not bigger in Star Citizen.
If you read up on Star Citizen in threads that have with non-consensual PvP and full loot you will see that a large majority in these threads prefer that and not consensual PvP? with no risk vs reward and consequences.
SotA could have been so much bigger if developers had allowed non-consensual PvP and full loot. Risk vs reward and consequences. But instead they chickened out and took the trammel road.
Just my guild would have delivered +50 pledgers but now it seem all they get from us is my misplaced pledge i will never use. I and my guildfriends will play Star Citizen instead.
SotA is not the next UO, it is a fullblown carebear game.

Sorry to brake it to you, but people who enjoy running around killing people who cant defend them selves and stealing there stuff are a minority. Mortal Online has like 500 people that play, dark fall has around 1000, uo full loot pvp shards have less then 300, wizardry online has no one lol, and all the rest failed. With free to play being the major kind of game, this makes pvp where you lose all your stuff even less attractive, considering no one wants to lose their money to some one who is a higher level. The people who want full loot pvp, and a game where some ones always trying to murder you, are people who can just sit around and play mmorpgs all day long every day, with no chance of distraction. Some one with a family for instance doesnt want to play that, because at any moment they may have to leave the game. In those games you just cant go afk in the middle of what you were doing. Also in all those games, the people in the game just sit around and look how to take advantage of in game bugs, and grief every one. They just grief every one in till every one quits the game. Yep thats a reat idea for mmos. Make a game that breeds hate, and contempt for the other players, so they will all leave, but the elite ass holes.
And as far as uo, even when uo was a the only mmorpg, there still wasent many people playing it. Uo never had a player base compared to everquest or wow. No one wants to spend in a game 20 hours grinding out stuff to say get a boat or a house, and then has some one who can spent more time then them on a game take it from them. Most people want to relax and have a good time, not be stressed out every time they log in, wondering if some one is gonna steal all their stuff.

Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadows: #22E, 24E, 26E, 28E, 30E, 32E
Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadows #22E, 24E, 26E, 28E, 30E, 32E
Please see my first post on the Aqua Shadows for a detailed review, along with photos, of texture, consistency, wear, and so forth. This post is specifically looking at the seven shimmer finish Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadows ($20.00 for 0.14 oz.). Because of the shimmery finish, these are just slightly drier, but as a result, they also wear really well alone over bare lids, over primer, and as a base with powder eyeshadows on top.
The only shade I had real trouble with was #32E, which has the driest consistency of the seven shades, and this translated to uneven color during application, so it didn't work well as an eyeshadow base and looked like my lids were flaking when used alone. If they had a smidgen more creaminess to the texture or if #32E was more like the rest, these would have been an A- product, but they're a really high B+ (89%).
- #20E is a soft bronzy taupe–it's just slightly taupe. The color payoff is good in a single pass. It's much lighter compared to Urban Decay's Rehab and Urban Decay Underground.
- #22E is a warm coppery brown with a subtly metallic finish. It is the least shimmery of the seven shimmery shades. The color payoff is really good, too. Urban Decay Lucky is a bit darker.
- #24E is a warm, yellow-toned light-medium pink with a shimmery finish. The color payoff is just so-so, but it is a bit buildable. I couldn't think of a dupe for this shade.
- #26E is a warm tangerine orange with a shimmery finish. It has good color payoff in a single stroke.
- #28E is a warm medium brown with a subtle champagne sheen. The pigmentation is good overall. It's lighter than Urban Decay Sin and more copper-based.
- #30E is a soft champagne beige with a shimmered finish. The pigmentation is good, but it is a little drier texture compared to the other shades in this post. Urban Decay Sin is very similar to this.
- #32E is a pale white gold with a near metallic finish. This had so-so color payoff, but I found it really uneven during application and rather dry. It's not quite as yellow as MAC Gilded White. It's lighter than Benefit Tattle Tale.
The Glossover
Make Up For Ever Aqua Shadows #22E, 24E, 26E, 28E, 30E, 32E Review, Photos, Swatches
|The frosted shades are difficult to blend but are long-lasting, while the matte shades are difficult to blend and crease after a few hours of wear. I can recommend checking out the frostier finishes, but if you have oily lids, you may want to be a little more cautious with the matte shades.

How to Save on a Wedding DressGet a beautiful dress and stay on budget. These are your essential tips.
Wedding Dress Budgeting: Know your price range.Before you set foot in a store, determine your budget, and only try on dresses that you can afford. There's no sense in falling in love with a gown that's beyond your means.
Wedding Dress Budgeting: Seek out trunk shows.During these special events held at bridal salons, a designer shows off her new collection. As an incentive, the store may offer a discount if you buy a dress that day, says Cristina DeMarco, general manager of Bridal Reflections, in New York City.
Wedding Dress Budgeting: Snag a sample.Several times a year, salons make room for new dresses by selling their showroom samples at 50 percent off or more. (Factor in the cost of having the gown professionally cleaned.)
Wedding Dress Budgeting: Think before you buy.A dress purchased at a steep discount at a one-day super-sale or from an online auction may seem like a steal, but alterations can cost a ton of money if the gown is way too big or small, warns Harper Della-Piana, owner of Seams Couture, in Wenham, Mass. Make sure a dress fits within reason before letting its low price win you over.
Wedding Dress Budgeting: Plan ahead.If you're shopping in a salon, start about nine months ahead of the wedding. This way, you'll avoid paying rush fees on your orders from the manufacturer and the alterations department.
Wedding Dress Budgeting: Pay it forward.Charge your dress on a credit card that earns points toward airline miles for your honeymoon. Charging your dress also gives you a record of your purchase for a worst-case scenario, such as if the salon suddenly goes out of business.
Where to Buy the Best Wedding Dresses
Full-Service Salons: Your local shop offers made-to-order gowns, expert staff, and items from veils to corsets.
Mass-Market Retailers: Chains like David's Bridal offer chic ready-to-wear styles at a great value in a range of sizes.
Designer-Owned Boutiques: High-end labels (such as Vera Wang) deliver couture-quality gowns in luxurious surroundings.
Destination Salons: These megastores (i.e., Kleinfeld) carry hundreds of designers in a broad range of prices.
Where to Buy the Best Wedding Gowns
Ready-to-Wear Specialists: More and more retailers (including J.Crew and BHLDN) sell semiformal dresses, mostly online.
Department Stores: Stores like Nordstrom and Saks offer a mix of designers, a veteran staff and a familiar setting.
Specialty Options: Custom dressmakers create handmade, one-of-a-kind gowns; vintage shops offer retro styles.
Online Retailers: Sites like Net-a-Porter.com have unique finds. Order several (return the rejects) and find a seamstress.
What to Expect When Trying on Wedding DressesBuying a dress in a salon is way, way, way different from planting yourself in a cramped stall with a pile of jeans. For one thing, you'll spend a lot of time standing around in your underwear. Here's what to expect.
Trying on Wedding Dresses: Helping HandsYou'll be assigned a personal consultant, who will pull dresses from the rack and help you get in and out of them. Check that modesty at the door—she'll be focused on dressing you properly, not on your muffin top.
Trying on Wedding Dresses: Pinning and ClippingSince you'll be trying on sample sizes—usually 10s—it's unlikely that they'll fit perfectly. To get a better idea of how a dress will look on you in the correct size, your consultant needs to work a little magic. If it's too big, she'll use pins and clips to reduce excess fabric; if it's too small, she'll insert temporary fabric panels to add extra room, explains Lori Allen of Bridals by Lori, in Atlanta.
Trying on Wedding Dresses: PresentingYes, believe it or not, this is an actual bridal term. Once you've put on the dress, you'll stand on a pedestal in front of your mother and MOH, plus whoever else accompanied you to the boutique, and discuss what you like and don't like about how it looks. In some bridal salons, you'll do this in a private viewing area within the dressing room, but in others you'll be "presenting" out in the open, where the rest of the shoppers can see you.
10 Things to Bring to the Bridal Salon
1. Shoes with the approximate heel height and style (i.e., ankle straps, peep-toes, pumps) that you plan to wear with the dress. Don't worry about the color.
2. A supportive strapless bra.
3. Underwear that you don't mind being seen in. (Skip the thong.)
4. Shapewear.
5. Freshly shaved armpits and legs. (You'll be getting up-close and personal with your consultant.)
10 Things to Bring to the Bridal Salon
6. A dab of makeup and neat hair, so you'll feel pretty.
7. A hair elastic. (If you're planning on wearing an updo, you'll want to see the dresses' necklines clearly.)
8. Photos of wedding dresses you like from magazines and websites.
9. A digital camera or smartphone for pics of contenders. (But check first that the salon allows this.)
10. Your mom and MOH. (A crowd means too many opinions!)
Plus-Size Wedding Dress Primer: Dress Advice for Girls with CurvesIf you're a plus-size bride on the hunt for your perfect dress, take these additional points into consideration before you start your search.
Plus-Size Wedding Dress Primer: Check the stock.To avoid disappointment, before booking an appointment, call the salon and ask how many plus-size samples are available. To save time and energy, focus on the stores with the most choices.
Plus-Size Wedding Dress Primer: Consider extra fees.Some designers tack on an additional material fee (5 to 30 percent) for dresses larger than size 14; be sure to consider this when determining your budget.
Plus-Size Wedding Dress Primer: Try a flattering silhouette.You can slim down a poufy gown by removing some of the layers from the petticoats or crinolines, says The Stylish Bride's Julie Sabatino. You'll get a sleeker look without losing the style you love.
Plus-Size Wedding Dress Primer: Mix up your shapes.Try on styles you might not have considered. Put your trust in your consultant, says Bridal Reflections' Cristina DeMarco. If she suggests, say, a strapless mermaid gown, give it a try: "She helps brides of every shape and size, and it's her job to know how to lead you to the ideal dress."
Match Your Wedding Dress to Your VenueLet your wedding's setting inspire your dress.
Choose a Dress that Reflects Your Wedding's Setting
Art Gallery: A sophisticated space calls for something equally chic. Steal the show in a modern gown featuring an asymmetrical neckline, an avant-garde silhouette, or similar artful details.
Beach Club: A heavy ball gown looks out of place at a wedding by the water. Instead, don a billowy strapless, one-shoulder, or halter dress in lighter-than-air fabrics. Don't forget a touch of sparkle to set it off.
Barn: Give a nod to the natural, rustic surroundings in a softly textured gown with flirty tiers or a short and sweet lace A-line. Instead of white, choose a warm hue like ivory, champagne, or blush.
Choose a Dress that Reflects Your Wedding's Setting
Historic House: Mirror the spirit of its decor with a vintage-inspired frock. Think of a lacy A-line, à la Kate Middleton, for a reception in a castle or a glam-chic beaded column gown at a 1920s locale.
Grand Ballroom: An opulent fit-and-flare dress or a voluminous ball gown can be the ideal match for a luxe venue. Play up the drama with hair jewels or an extra-long train.
Wedding Dress AlterationsAlterations are pricey, but totally worth it. Here's exactly what your seamstress wants you to know.
Wedding Dress Alterations
1. Your dress must be fitted to your body. It's ordered in a size, not to your measurements. Once the seamstress works her magic, it will be the best-fitting item you'll ever wear.
2. If you wait until the last minute to see your seamstress, you'll be charged more. Schedule your alterations as soon as your dress arrives.
Wedding Dress Alterations
3. Your dress may have to be taken apart. If you need a new zipper on a beaded dress, for example, some beads have to be removed first, says Seams Couture's Della-Piana.
4. You need a specialty seamstress. Your local dry cleaner's tailor may be a whiz with skirts and pants but is probably unfamiliar with a bridal gown's boning and embellishments.

Business Tax - General
- Can I be set up on a pay agreement to satisfy my tax delinquencies; and if so, what are the requirements?
- What identifying information is needed when I write in with a question on my state tax return?
- How do I obtain a tax clearance?
- How do I obtain a certificate of no tax due?
- When is a tax lien filed?
- How do I pay sales/use tax under protest?
- What if I do not receive my pre-printed voucher before my return is due?
Can I be set up on a pay agreement to satisfy my tax delinquencies; and if so, what are the requirements?
It is generally the Department's policy to discourage this type of arrangement. We continually stress the importance of obtaining financing elsewhere since the Department is not a lending institution. However, taxpayers may end up in financial situations where they wish to make periodic payments to resolve delinquent tax debts. In these exceptional cases where it is in the best interest of both the taxpayer and the Department, we will grant a request to enter into a delinquent tax payment agreement. Payment agreements are not offered to reinstate a revoked license or to obtain a No Tax Due statement.
Key Criteria for qualification include:
- Written request showing need and a proposal for payments
- All tax areas with delinquencies will be included
- Taxpayer must remain current in filing all returns
- Minimum down payment of 25% with maximum payoff time of 12 months
- Interest will continue to accrue
- If lien is filed it will remain until delinquency is paid in full
What identifying information is needed when I write in with a question on my state tax return?
To expedite your inquiry, the following information should be included in your correspondence:
- Your tax identification number or social security number (copy of notice if one was received)
- Specify the "tax type" in question
- Include your current mailing address
- Include a daytime telephone number
- Submit a detailed explanation of your inquiry
How do I obtain a tax clearance?
Complete Form 943, Request For Tax Clearance, and submit it to the Missouri Department of Revenue, Tax Clearance Unit, PO Box 3666, Jefferson City, MO 65105-3666. Click here for more information regarding tax clearance.
How do I obtain a certificate of no tax due?
A certificate of no tax due can be obtained from the Missouri Department of Revenue for sales/use, withholding, individual income and/or corporation income taxes or any combination of these taxes.
A sales/use tax certificate of no tax due is currently required to renew a liquor license, obtain a fireworks permit or renew a business license in cities, counties and for state agencies if that business sells goods at retail.
Also, Sections 144.150 and 143.241 require that before a business contracts to sell all or substantially all of a business, the seller shall request from the Director of Revenue a certificate of no tax due to present to the purchaser prior to the consummation of the sale. Failure to comply shall result in the seller being liable for an additional penalty equal to 25% of the seller's delinquency at the time of sale.
Until a certificate of no tax due is presented the purchaser is required to withhold an amount of the purchase money sufficient to cover the taxes, interest, additions to tax or penalties due and unpaid. If the purchaser fails to withhold the purchase money and remit at the time of purchase all amount so withheld to the director to pay all unpaid taxes, interest, additions to tax and penalties due from the former owner, the purchaser shall be personally liable for the unpaid amounts of the former owner of the business.
Click here to visit the Department's No Tax Due system.
When is a tax lien filed?
A lien may be filed in any case in which an assessment of tax, interest, additions to tax or penalty imposed under Sections 144.010 to 144.510 and 143.005 to 143.998 has been made and has become final. The lien may be filed for record in the recorder's office of the county in which the person resides, has a place of business or owns property. The lien attaches to real or personal property or interest in real or personal property owned by the person or acquired by the person after the filing of the certificate of lien.
How do I pay sales/use tax under protest?
Any notice issued by the department or any tax imposed that a taxpayer disagrees with may be paid under protest. The department must receive payment in full of the delinquency or disputed tax and the check must be clearly marked "Paid Under Protest". Upon receipt of the payment, a Protest Affidavit will be mailed to the taxpayer and must be returned within thirty days after the payment is received.
What if I do not receive my preprinted voucher before my return is due?
Before contacting the Department of Revenue regarding the receipt of your preprinted voucher book, please visit our website specifically dedicated to voucher books. This website will explain about voucher books, including the anticipated mail dates for the preprinted voucher book, on all tax types.
You may also obtain generic forms by visiting our tax forms page or by calling (800) 877-6881 to have the form(s) sent to you by mail.
If you still have questions, please check out other Business Tax FAQs.
Can't find an answer to your question(s)? Email us! We look forward to hearing from you!

PC not recognizing the USB device
I just bought a brand new GoGear Vibe SA3VBE04. And right out of the box I tried to connect it to my computer to do the first charge and install the software and every time I attempt to connect it to my PC (windows 7) I get this message.
"One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it.
Recommendation: Try reconnecting the device, if Windows still does to recognize it, replace the device."
Now I've tried everything I can think of. I installed Songbird on its own (didn't work)
I've restarted my computer (didn't work)
I've reset the device (didn't work)
I've tried different USB ports on both computers (didn't work)
I've turned off all the anti virus and firewalls (didn't work)
I just took it out of the box and plugged it in....what am I doing wrong?
I called customer service, and they said that I need to let it charge for 12 hours before the device will connect and install the software. Is that true?! And if it is it would be a fantastic idea to included that in the quick start guide for clueless people like me!

Never mind, I noticed that it wasn't charging and overheating. I was going to take it back to Walmart and get a different unit thinking it was a faulty device. But then I noticed it had the same USB jack as my Cellphone charger. I plugged it in using my Cell charger and it started charging normally.
I realized it was the USB cord that came with the unit that was faulty not the device. I went to a Walgreen's and purchased a new mini USB cord and it works just fine now.
Although I just spent 10$ extra I feel I should be reimbursed......

INDIANAPOLIS — A 2007 Columbia City High School graduate was killed in a hit-and-run accident in Indianapolis early Saturday morning.
Alex Trabert, 23, died after he was struck by a Toyota Camry on North Shadeland Avenue near 74th Street.
According to Indianapolis media, a 23-year-old woman was arrested on the preliminary charge of failure to stop after an accident causing death.
According to police, the suspect, Morgan Mannix, Kansas City, Miss., fled the area after hitting Trabert, who was pronounced dead on the scene.
Indianapolis' hit-and-run team located the vehicle and Mannix, who was taken to the hospital for a blood draw before being booked in an Indy jail.
Police say Mannix may face additional charges.

My usual XXS fit true to size, and the style of the top was flattering, but the bright yellow gold color made the top look cheap, and the sequins scratched my arms, so I couldn't imagine wearing it even for a couple of hours.

5 August 20:00 Chelsea vs Fiorentina
The Premier League may have lost some of its stars over the past few seasons but the drama and goals on show every season will certainly not be gone in this year's campaign.
Drama is always on show during the top league in England and fans watching will get lots of excitement, that is for sure.
The title race looks closer than ever with no clear frontrunner safe and sound ahead of the chasing pack, and the ability for a shock behind every corner.
New Challengers
While Chelsea looked a dead cert for the Premier League title having gone 14 games unbeaten at the start of the season, their recent defeat to Newcastle has cast some doubt over the side that many tipped to be the next "Invincibles".
And Newcastle themselves have managed to epitomise the Premier League with their crazy campaign, having failed to win in the first 7 games of the season before clawing themselves up the table to the brink of a Champions League place.
The traditional "Top 4" has been disbanded with Manchester United's horrendous Moyes-fuelled season pushing them down the pecking order, only for the appointment of Louis van Gaal to seemingly rejuvenate the Reds.
Dark horses West Ham and Southampton, who finished 12th and 8th last season, both now challenging for the Top 4 and even the title.
Man City will be desperate to defend their crown while Liverpool's sale of Luis Suarez looks to have taken the wind out of their sail, making for an intriguing season at Anfield, while across the Park Everton look to beat off the threat of mid-table mediocrity.
As always the North London duo are there, with Spurs looking to assert their authority as a top club under the new philosophy of Mauricio Pochettino, while their neighbours flaunt one of the best players in world football with new signing Alexis Sanchez.
At The Bottom
But the drama doesn't stop when it comes to the other end of the table, too. Premier League new boys Leicester and Burnley have found goals hard to come by but talismen Leonardo Ulloa and Danny Ings have brought new hope.
Meanwhile, QPR look shaky at the back and Sunderland continue to toy with the drop zone, while Aston Villa have mirror-imaged Newcastle's rise with an epic decline into the bottom half.
The Premiership is the best league in the world down to its unpredictability and drama – something you shouldn't miss out on.

Grace is for sinners, not the perfect.
Rom 5:20 Yet law came in by the way, that the offense should be increasing. Yet where sin increases, grace superexceeds,
Quote from: Tony N on March 10, 2009, 12:35:27 AMRom 5:20 Yet law came in by the way, that the offense should be increasing. Yet where sin increases, grace superexceeds,The way I read that Tony, is that I should be sinning as much as possible to ensure that I get the most Grace possible. Don't you see error in that?Paul
NO NO NO thats carnal thinking, stinkin thinkin.....GO FORBID!! why do people say these things when grace is spoken of?? paul even addressed this type thinking!!hey friend you should read :"""HOW TO BE FREE FROM SIN WHILE SMOKING A CIGARETTE"""by martin zender.be wellchuckt
Can you see how I came to that conclusion based on Tony's verse though?Paul
Quote from: Tony N on March 10, 2009, 06:56:17 PMGrace is for sinners, not the perfect.thank god im not like those sinners over there
he that is forgiven much..loves much....
Quote from: chuckt on March 10, 2009, 07:07:53 PMQuote from: Tony N on March 10, 2009, 06:56:17 PMGrace is for sinners, not the perfect.thank god im not like those sinners over there Chuck, when my dad was still alive he asked me to pray at the dinner table I said: "I thank you God that I am not a sinner like my dad and brother."They got a good kick out of that.
only because i heard it before from unlearned/legalists. sorry bro not trying to be harsh. and not really speaking of you , but i scratch my head HERE on this forum.grace teaches us to say no to unrighteouness.LOVE constrains us.Tony spoke the truth.i person who commits adultery is as much a slave to sin as one who lusts.be wellchuckt.
See the problem I see is his interpretation of the verse. That present tense is the problem. Again, here is Tony's version:Rom 5:20 Yet law came in by the way, that the offense should be increasing. Yet where sin increases, grace superexceeds,Here is the version from Young's Literal Translation:Rom 5:20 And law came in, that the offence might abound, and where the sin did abound, the grace did overabound, Now if the meaning is present tense then Young's Literal Translation would use the word "does" instead of did. Here is the Greek parsing based on WH:Paul
ok paul,i see what you are saying but following along we see:20 Yet law came in by the way, that the offense should be increasing. Yet where sin increases, grace superexceeds,21 that, even as Sin reigns in death, thus Grace also should be reigning through righteousness, for life eonian, through Jesus Jesus IS WAS and WILL BE...... follow along:Chapter 6 1 What, then, shall we declare? That we may be persisting in sin that grace should be increasing?2 May it not be coming to that! We, who died to sin, how shall we still be living in it?3 Or are you ignorant that whoever are baptized into Christ Jesus, are baptized into His death?4 We, then, were entombed together with Him through baptism into death, that, even as Christ was roused from among the dead through the glory of the Father, thus we also should be walking in newness of life.so it is INDEED present tense as the object of the topic is us dieing to sin INCHRIST. and US NOT persisting ""in sin"" even though that GRACE is STILL increasing. and WILL increase till the end.ok, i understand your point, do you understand mine?and thanks for the link.peace brochuckt
trettep, it is not in error but shows the aorist:"In "A Grammar of the Greek New Testament in the Light ofHistorical Research" Prof. Robertson has this to say regarding thetranslation of the Aorist into English: "The Greek Aorist ind., ascan be readily seen, is not the exact equivalent of any tense inany other language. It has {nuances} all its own, many of themdifficult, or well nigh impossible to reproduce in English. Wemerely do the best we can in English to translate in one way oranother the total result of a word, context and tense. Certainlyone cannot say that the English translations have been successfulwith the Greek Aorist...(Page 847). The English past willtranslate the Greek aorist in many cases where we prefer `have'...(Page 848). The Greek aorist and the English past do not exactlycorrespond....The Greek aorist covers much more ground than theEnglish past...The aorist in Greek is so rich in meaning that theEnglish labors and groans to express it. As a matter of fact theGreek aorist is translatable into almost every English tenseexcept the imperfect..." Again, "The aorist is, strictly speaking,timeless." "As this is the latest and most authoritative work on thegrammar of the New Testament, it is evident that Dr. Weymouth'ssuggestion has not been deemed a satisfactory solution and thatthe translation of the aorist into English is in a mostunsatisfactory state notwithstanding all the efforts of modernscholarship. "In view of this self-confessed failure, any attempt at thesolution of so grave a defect in our method of translation shouldbe welcomed and examined on its own merits. "Dr. Weymouth, in his pamphlet "On the Rendering into Englishof the Greek Aorist and Perfect" criticizes the Revised Versionfor its treatment of the aorist. Falling in with the prevailingtendency, they had changedp188 Weymouth Prefers the Perfect as a Rendering of the Aoristmany renderings which are in the "perfect" (using HAVE) to thepast tense. In fact they, generally speaking, regarded the aoristas referring to the past. Dr. Weymouth noted how often it makespoor English, and felt, in an indefinite way, that the aorist mustnot be confined to the past. He would have it rendered by the"perfect," as it often is in the Authorized Version, at the sametime translating the perfect in this way as well. But if theaorist is I-HAVE-LOVED and the Perfect also is I-HAVE-LOVED, whatis the difference between them? After all, the chief function of atranslation is to preserve the distinctions of the original. If apainter should copy a picture of sheep and goats and draw them allalike, he may produce a pretty picture, but an abominable copy.There are sharp boundaries between all the forms of the Greek verbas we shall see, and they should be distinguished as far aspossible. "Weymouth pleads for the perfect, as a rendering of the Greekaorist because it has a bearing on the present, which the past hasnot. He protests that "it is too commonly believed and taught thatthe Greek Aorist Indicative...is equivalent to the Simple PastTense in English (I {wrote}, I {loved}, I {brought}...) "Heaffirms that "the English Past, used according to the {trueEnglish idiom}, will largely fail to coincide with the Aorist..."He makes the startling discovery that we give the English Presentthe force of a Future, giving the following examples: "We {start}tomorrow," "The king {comes} here tonight." He might have addedthe fact that this same "present" is used of the past also, as in"The king {comes} here since he was crowned." "He was on the verge of discovering that the English "Present"is not a present at all but a true past-future indefinite. He evengives examples where the Present must be used, as, "The Chronicle{states}--," "Clarendon {records}--," "Gibbon {informs} us--." Theone instance he gives for the past in narrative is found in Acts25:14: "Festus {declared}." But the Greek word here used has noneof the characteristics of the true aorist at all-p189 Weymouth Prefers the Perfect as a Rendering of the Aoristexcept the sign of the past. {Etheto} is a simple past, and shouldbe rendered "Festus {submitted} Paul's case to the king." "To prove that the aorist is not a simple past he gives thefollowing instances in which both the A. V. and the Revisersrender it by the perfect: We add the C. V. rendering to show thatit can usually be still better rendered by the so-called English"present."Matt.5:21,27 Ye {have heard} that it was said C. V. You {hear} that it was declaredMark 10:20 All these things I {have observed} C. V. I {maintain} all these things fromRev.14:8 Babylon is fallen, is fallen C. V. It falls! It falls! Babylon "The perfect limits the {action} to the past just as much asthe past tense does. In these and all other instances of theaorist the action is not confined to the past. "Weymouth then makes the welcome admission that "{aorist}means {indefinite}, and we must bow to the authority of the Greekgrammarians who held that name to be a suitable one...." This isprecisely the point for which we contend. "He then gives examples where he thinks the aorist should berendered by the pluperfect and the translators have so given it.Matt.1:24 As the angel {had bidden} him C. V. As the messenger {bids} himMatt.11:1 When {he had made} an {end} C. V. When Jesus {finishes}Matt.27:31 When they {had mocked} Him C. V. And when they {deride} HimMatt.26:19 As Jesus {had appointed} them C. V. As Jesus {instructs} themMark 1:32 When the sun {had set} C. V. When the sun {sets} "The following is a step in the right direction: "{The Aoristis often used where our idiom demands the Present}...but thisGnomic Aorist (as in James 1:11, "for the sun {rises}." etc.) andthe Epistolary Aorist (2 Cor.p190 The Concordant Method of Solving the Problem8:18, we {send} with him the brother") need not here be enlargedupon." Weymouth touches the true sense of the aorist here, but,alas, he did not enlarge upon it! He recognizes its use in thestatement of general truths or proverbs (the Gnomic Aorist). Thevery fact that it can be used of things which are true at alltimes and that English uses the "present" for this purpose issufficient to identify them. "Those who suppose that the English of our versions is beyondreproach will be shocked when he states that "the persistentrendering of the Greek Aorist by the English simple Past in the R.V. of the N. T. has one very undesirable effect--that {thetranslation is not English}." (Unsearchable Riches, vol.13)
For me, the person who thinks it's okay to live as you wish and grace will cover it . .. is the same who still doesn't understand that to live in that thinking is not pursuing Christ. When I pursue Christ . . .when I just let him live in me . . . when I let him be in my DAILY thoughtlife, as well as my nightlife . . .when I read of him, worship to him, just ramble around with him . . .then the deeds in me that are subpar are covered by grace as I walk in him. There's no need to try to step as he steps . . .if my eyes are on him, my feet will follow and I may even step in a cow pie occasionally . . .but both the Father and myself are oblivious to that because regardless of what I step in thorugh out my day, my relationship with him will continually wash me, cleanse me, and I don't even need to be always aware of it.
Hi Paul,As I have been reading your ongoing comments/conversation with Tony and others regarding the interpretation of WHY grace abounds....I find it interesting that both of you have given 'proof' from scholarly translators of the Word....and yet both come to 2 different conclusions.Hmmm.This is a perfect example of the letter of the Word versus the Spirit of the Word....for the Letter has now been thoroughly parsed ....but what does the Spirit of Truth have to say?I guess this is where each person has to be led by the Spirit of Truth for himself/herself....My prayer is that all believers would be in agreement that we would not want to continue in sin or practice sin when we know THE PRICE that our beloved Lord had to pay in order to free us of/from sin.With head bowed low....I am so grateful.Shalom,DaughterofDavid

Q. What are the benefits of choosing Viridian Energy as my energy supplier? A. We offer customers a unique and simple way to help the environment. Our electricity products come from more renewable sources you can do something for the environment without paying more or changing your behavior. By signing up for our energy services, you can feel good knowing that your choice is part of the collective impact of our mission.
Q. Does Viridian offer natural gas or electricity service? A. Viridian offers both natural gas and electricity service. Customers can enroll for just electricity, just natural gas, or both, depending on their utility service territory.
Q. Will I have to get a new meter or any new equipment? A. No. You will not have to make any purchases or changes to the system you currently have. You will keep the meter you have always had and it will be read the same way and on the same cycle. No physical or logistical changes are required because the utility still delivers your energy.
Q. If I switch, will my reliability be affected? A. No. Viridian and other third party suppliers like us are just as reliable as the utility, and all are licensed and monitored by the utility commission or responsible authority in your state.
Q. How can Viridian's rate be lower than the utility's? A. Deregulation allows electricity suppliers like Viridian to buy energy wholesale from competitive providers and pass the savings along to customers. Viridian also provides only one specialized service, eliminating the operational costs that often burden utilities.
Q. Why do rates vary? A. Energy is a commodity. This means it is bought and sold on the open market, just like the stock market. Knowing this can help you understand basic movements. When demand is low, the price goes down. When demand for energy is high, such as during peak summer and winter months, the price goes up. Viridian's variable rate product reflects this fluctuation. For customers who prefer price certainty, Viridian also offers fixed rate plans.
Q. Who do I call if I have problems with my service? A. If you have any problems, you will contact the utility. They remain responsible for the delivery of your energy, as well as for any necessary maintenance and repairs to any lines or meters. The utility also still provides billing so you will call them for any questions about your bill.
Q. Does the utility company get hurt if I switch? A. No. Utilities do not compete with third-party suppliers. The utility still makes money through the delivery of electricity and does not lose profit when customers switch to a supplier.
Q. What happens if I move? A. To move your service to a new address, simply call Viridian or your utility to make the switch.
Q. Does Viridian offer a fixed rate product? A. Yes, Viridian began offering fixed rate plans in October 2011.
Q. Is Viridian's rate the same for each utility? A. No. Viridian prices each market separately based on the local market and how energy is billed by a specific utility.
Q. What does it mean when my bill says 'price to compare'? A. Price to Compare is the default utility rate that a customer would pay if they do not choose a third party supplier. This number is helpful when shopping for a supplier.
Q. What is the difference between a residential rate and commercial rate? A. A residential rate is charged to homes and a commercial rate is charged to businesses. Each bill has a rate code associated with it. Residential rates are normally given a code either starting with, or containing an 'R'. Commercial rate codes are based on various factors ranging from type of business, to volume consumed, to geographic location of the business. In all cases you can contact the utility providing service on the account to determine the exact classification of any rate code in question.
Q. Can Viridian rates be higher than the utility? A. Yes, Viridian's variable rates can sometimes go above the utility's rate. On average, our customers have historically saved money compared to the utility's rate. It is part of our company mission to always provide customers affordable, green energy options.
Q. Can I still use a budget plan? A. If a customer is on a budget plan, it is likely that they will be affected if they sign up with a third-party supplier. In New Jersey and Maryland markets customers typically cannot continue on a budget plan, but in Pennsylvania and Connecticut markets they typically can. However, whatever market a customer is in, they should always call the utility to ask how their budget plan would be impacted by enrolling with a third party supplier.
Q. Does it cost anything to enroll? A. Enrollment is absolutely free. There are no sign-up fees or hidden fees anywhere in the process.
Q. Can I cancel my service with Viridian at any time? A. Variable rate plan customers can cancel their service at any time without penalty. Customers who are on fixed rate plans are subject to a cancellation fee if they choose to end their service before the duration of the term of service.
Q. How will I be billed? A. The same way you always have. You will continue to receive one bill each month with charges for your usage, and the same service and delivery charges. If you wish to change your current payment method you can do so through the utility.
Q. Where can I find information about competitors? A. Most states have consumer guides to help customers learn about and choose a third party supplier. You can usually find the website by going to the Public Utility Commission website for your state. Some of these websites show all of the different suppliers in a given market, including a description of their rate plans and current prices.
Q. How does Viridian choose which markets to enter? A. There are many factors that determine where Viridian offers service. Viridian typically chooses markets in deregulated states that offer Purchase of Receivable, or POR billing methods with the utility. POR guarantees payment to the supplier even if the customer does not pay the bill, which reduces risk for Viridian and allows us to offer market competitive rates.
Q. What is "Brown Energy"? A. Brown energy is energy that comes from conventional fossil fuels, such as oil or coal. The combustion from these fuels releases harmful emissions into the environment. Renewable or "green" energy comes from clean sources that are more sustainable and are better for the environment.
Q. What is a REC? A. REC stands for Renewable Energy Certificate. Each certificate represents proof that one megawatt hour of electricity has been generated from a renewable source. Suppliers like Viridian purchase RECs to meet mandatory and voluntary renewable electricity requirements. The revenue a renewable generator receives from REC sales provides financial support to the facility and ultimately drives renewable energy development in the US.
Q. Can I Really Impact the Environment? A. Yes, you can. Each customer that signs up with Viridian is part of the collective and measurable impact we have made so far. The Vmeter on our website is regularly updated to show the aggregate environmental impact Viridian customers have had. Viridian's annual Sustainability Report shows a thorough breakdown of these statistics. Visit the sustainability section of liveviridian.com to find the report.

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) Hazardous Substances
As an industrialized nation, the United States produces, transports, stores, uses, and disposes of millions of tons of hazardous substances per day. Many of us live and work among a wide variety of hazardous substances, which can be found on trucks, trains, and ships that transport hazardous substances; in industrial production, storage, and use; and in active and abandoned hazardous waste sites. Hazardous substances also are found in many consumer products and services that we use everyday. Under normal conditions, these substances are controlled and pose no threat to human life and the environment. But when they enter the environment through an accidental release, they can contaminate the land we use, the water we drink, and the air we breathe, with potentially disastrous results.
Hazardous substances take many forms, and are defined under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). Today, a great deal is known about hazardous substances and their effects; this information helps responders act quickly and safely to reduce the risks from emergency situations.
The Emergency Response Program and its Partners: EPA's Emergency Response program provides quick response to the release, or threatened release, of hazardous substances wherever and whenever they occur. It complements the Superfund program and acts as a major part of a national infrastructure designed to protect human health and the environment from the threats posed by hazardous substances.
There are three major areas under which the program acts:
Planning for potential emergencies is essential to preventing the worst effects of hazardous substance releases; the Emergency Response program coordinates contingency planning on the national level.
Rapid and safe response to incidents with whatever resources are required to eliminate immediate dangers to the public and the environment; to minimize damage in an emergency, safe response procedures must be followed, and the techniques used must be appropriate to the details of the emergency.
Community involvement can be used to inform the public about a release, response activities, and the substances involved. EPA also recognizes the value of a well-informed community, and works hard to educate citizens about what to do in the event of a hazardous substance release. EPA's Emergency Response program works hard to foster good community relations and maintain communication in the event of an emergency.
The program is a vital part in the nation's efforts to reduce and eliminate the threats from hazardous substances releases. EPA responses to hazardous substance emergencies are implemented through its 10 Regions, and are characterized by a system that includes federal, state, and local cooperation, the National Response System, and between government and industry. Due to the pervasiveness of hazardous substances in our society, however, the broad range of emergencies to which EPA must respond can never be completely eliminated. The Emergency Response program is prepared to use its response authorities to their fullest extent, today and in the future, to protect the public and the environment from immediate threats posed by hazardous substances. The program has a history of significant accomplishments in the face of challenging response conditions.

- Growth-rate regulated genes have profound impact on interpretation of transcriptome profiling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (2006)
- Background The growth rate is central for the development of cells in all organisms. However, little is known about the impact of changing growth rates. We have used continuous cultures to control the growth rate and study the transcriptional programme of the model eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae with generation times varying between 2 and 35 hours. Results A total of 5,930 transcripts were identified at the different growth rates studied. Consensus clustering of these revealed that half of all yeast genes are affected by the specific growth rate, and that the changes are similar to those found when cells are exposed to different types of stress (more than 80% overlap). Genes with decreased transcript levels in response to faster growth are largely of unknown function (more than 50%) while genes with increased transcript levels are involved in macromolecular biosynthesis such as those encoding ribosomal proteins. This group also covers most targets of the transcriptional activator, RAP1, which is also known to be involved in replication. A positive correlation between the location of replication origins and the location of growth-regulated genes, suggests a role for replication in growth rate regulation. Conclusions Our data show that the cellular growth rate has paramount influence on transcriptional regulation. This, in turn, implies that one should be cautious when comparing mutants with different growth rates. The results also indicate that much of the regulation is coordinated via the chromosomal location of the affected genes, which may be valuable information for the control of heterologous gene expression in metabolic engineering.
