LEOPARDS face two more crunch games in the space of 48 hours this weekend.
The Big Cats travel to table-topping Derby Trailblazers on Saturday night before hosting Reading Rockets at the Brentwood Centre the following day.
Coach Dejan Mihevc is keen to continue his side's fine run of results.
And he feels two more victories could push fourth placed Leopards in to contention for the league title.
"A win on Saturday would put us in a position to fight for the league championship," said Mihevc.
"That is much more than we expected at the beginning of the season but both games will be difficult for us this weekend.
"Derby have a great team and they play very well at home.
"They are very balanced and have a deep squad too.
"They're also on a great run right now and just recently won the Trophy final quite comfortably so I would say we're playing against probably the best team in our league.
"However, that means we are not under pressure."
Leopards, who also play home matches in Basildon, have won their last 10 league outings to move up to fourth in the standings.
They also have at least three games in hand on all the sides above them and hope to have both John Lister and Lukas Volskis back from injury this weekend.
Leopards lost 97-91 in overtime to Derby in the Trophy but have yet to face them in the league this season.
Dominic Norton and Simonas Bublys should also return after missing last Sunday's victory against Medway Park Crusaders following a car accident.
But Mihevc is also expecting a tough test against the eighth placed Rockets who Leopards edged past 81-79 earlier on in the campaign.
"Reading's position in the table right now does not show the real quality of that team and I expect that they will finish the last part of the season strong," said Mihevc.
"They for sure will be very well prepared and we expect a hard and very tactical game."
"Reading are a team that focuses a lot of developing young players and I respect that a lot.
"They have a great programme with a very good coaching stuff and their construction of a team is very similar to ours so I think it will be another close game this weekend."
The match at the Brentwood Centre tips off at 4pm

By all accounts, Charlie Ward was one of, if not the most celebrated quarterbacks in college football history. A Heisman trophy and a National Championship ring are just two of the many accolades bestowed upon the former Thomas County Central (GA) star. After a 12 year NBA career, Ward has settled down in Houston, first as an assistant coach with the Houston Rockets. And then as luck would have it, he got back into football as the head coach of Westbury Christian Academy.
"I've been blessed to have a lot of great mentors," said Ward. "I never thought I would be coaching. That was the last thing on my mind. However, I have one great coach here--my dad. I find myself doing things he did with the kids, making sure they are taken care of. As a high school coach, Charlie Green, middle school coach Joe Coleman, then off to college with Coach (Bobby) Bowden, Coach (Mark) Richt, and John Eason who are great mentors for me as well.
"A lot of the things I do I learned from those guys. It comes down to having a heart to care for kids. I want to be a mentor. The X's and O's, we'll do away with, but to be able to drop seeds and have an impact on kids lives for a very long time is what we are really there for."
And now, Ward is trying to be a mentor, but not just to his kids in Houston, but privately to E.J. Manuel and Christian Ponder. For the past few years, Ward says he has reached out to the Seminole quarterbacks to provide advice and support. But both quarterbacks have benefited from Ward's knowledge and the former Heisman trophy winner says he spends a lot of time talking to Manuel.
"I've been talking to E.J. for the past couple of years since he's been there, mentoring him and keeping him up when he wasn't getting the opportunity to play; checking up on him spiritually," said Ward. "I do that for a lot of guys, encourage them and critique them on their play. He has great ability. He's a big kid and did well in high school. He has a good work ethic."
Ward has similar praise for Ponder who was a breath of fresh air for the Seminole offense before his injury. His abilities haven't gone unnoticed in Houston.
"He's definitely improved over the couple of years he started playing," said Ward. "You always want to see improvement. He's a smart kid, sometimes that can be good and sometimes that can be bad for an athlete. He's very athletic for his size, but he's done a very good job. He's a smart kid. He's getting his MBA or something in the spring. That's ridiculously unheard of and he still has a year of eligibility."
Ward is confident in the future of Florida State's football program, especially at the quarterback position. With Ponder going into his senior year and Manuel behind him, Jimbo Fisher should be set for the next few years. Will Secord, and recently enrolled Clint Trickett, are next in line and in 2011 look for Fisher to bring in another signal caller. And whoever comes in will continue to follow in the shadows of Charlie Ward and Chris Weinke.
"The future at the quarterback position is very bright next year and the next couple of years with E.J." said Ward. "I'm not sure what we have coming in, but I'm sure they'll bring in some top talent. That position is always key. The years that we struggled, that was the one key position where we did not have consistency and it hurt us. Look at all the teams that are very good. The quarterback position is key to their success. You can have a good defense, offensive line, and running back, but if the quarterback isn't consistent in the run game or the pass game or knowing the offense, the team will struggle."
Since Ward and Weinke, the 'Noles haven't had the consistency under center they were accustomed to during the 80's and 90's. But they are hoping that Fisher's background with quarterbacks and his success coaching the position will make the top signal-callers in the nation look long and hard at Florida State. But it all begins with Fisher who Ward says is a very good football mind. So much so, that he's been helping out with the offense at a certain high school in Houston.
"I've been talking with him. He's been helping me out with my offense where I am coaching at high school," said Ward. "But I feel like football wise, he'll do very well. It's going to be hard to match Coach Bowden and all the things he brought, but Coach Bowden probably didn't have all he had when he first started. There were some things that he had to grow into and learn from. You have to make some mistakes and learn from it. I think that's something Coach Fisher learned and he's had a great mentor in Coach Bowden. I think he'll do some things a little different which is good."

The Lincoln Economic Development Association kicked off its initiative to foster local entrepreneurship with a "table talk†at Verdict Ridge Country Club on Friday.
Guest speaker Dr. Deborah Markley with the RUPRI Center for Rural Entrepreneurship was invited to speak and share her insight from her experience as a leader in the field of rural development and research.
Having presented to national policy organizations and congressional committees, Markley had a lot to say about what works and what doesn't when it comes to successful entrepreneurial areas.
Markley emphasized that communities must take a balanced approach to economic development and support companies already located in an area, in addition to recruiting new industries.
She also differentiated between entrepreneurs and small-business owners, saying the former "work on a business†while the latter "work in the business.â€
As for why communities should support entrepreneurs, Markley listed three primary reasons. First, she said, they turn opportunities into business ventures. Secondly, they create jobs. And last, she noted that entrepreneurs give back, pointing out that it "doesn't usually say Wal-Mart on the backs of kids' jerseys.â€
Markley also said that "necessity entrepreneurship†has arisen during these tough economic times, with many people feeling they have nothing to lose. In fact, she said there has been a 24 percent increase in self-employment.
She outlined the various ways communities can support their entrepreneurs, such as through freedom and encouragement to innovate, technical assistance, networking opportunities and various forms of capital.
However, she added that many entrepreneurs list monetary assistance after a supportive environment when defining their needs.
"There is a lot of assistance communities can provide before the money kicks in,†she said. "It's not just money — it's support.â€
While Markley said that many are just interested in talking about jobs in the short term — including the White House Rural Council, with whom she met recently — growing entrepreneurism should be viewed as a long-term strategy.
She concluded her presentation by laying out the steps communities can take for creating a successful atmosphere for entrepreneurs, including being entrepreneur-focused, encouraging networking, engaging young people, creating "no wrong door†and measuring and celebrating outcomes.
LEDA Director Barry Matherly finished the talk by reiterating that it was just a kick-off event and that there are plans for a series of discussions on entrepreneurism, with the hope of developing an organized strategy across the county and between various organizations.

Bane starts out with four women being drugged and waking up inside a testing facility. Their memories have been erased, and if it wasn't for a bracelet they wouldn't even know their names. Shortly after waking up the women are introduced to Dr. Murdoch, who begins to question the women one on one about anything they might remember. Shortly afterwards they are subjected to brain wave tests as they are forced to watch horrible scenes flash across a movie screen (similar to A Clockwork Orange). That night, one of the women wakes up with a number carved into her flesh. No coincidence, a mad butcher type doctor shows up at exactly that time to kill her. Night by night the mad butcher continues to show up, until it's time to try and escape.
Bane started out very promising. I enjoy a good mystery as much as the next guy, and waking up in a testing facility hit all the right marks for me. I've also always liked the mad doctor type characters, and Daniel Jordan as Dr. Murdock was fantastic! The four women prisoners were also all wonderfully acted, and each with a different personality which really helped to relate to them. Kudos to Sophia Dawnay as Katherine, Tina Barnes as Natasha, Lisa Devlin as Jane, and Sylvia Robson as Elaine. They all did a fantastic job carrying the first two-thirds of the movie.
Now for the last third. After finally escaping, the movie flips from a slasher type horror movie to a science fiction movie, and it completely lost me. I understand director James Eaves was trying to think outside the box and not have a regular paint by numbers horror movie, but sometimes simpler is better. Also on the downside is the horrendous set pieces. Obviously when watching low budget movies (which I do quite a bit) you have to account for budget restraints, but locking the women in what looks like the metal gates used in shopping malls when the stores are closing, and tossing a piece of plastic over everything just doesn't cut it. The special effects were also well done, save for the laugh out loud electrocution scenes when anyone touched the metal bars. That idea should have just been scraped from the get go. Finally, at nearly two hours in length, Bane is a bit on the long winded side. I wish it would've been about twenty minutes shorter (and not just because I wish the ending wasn't there).
All in all Bane is an uneven work. Things start off strong and promising, but are ruined in the final act when everything is flipped on it's head. There are definitely worse low budget movies out there, but I cannot recommend Bane wholehearted. The movie shows some real promise from director James Eaves, and I hope to see what he does in the future. Bane is being released on April 10th from Chemical Burn Entertainment.

First off, the government estimates that one in five adult Americans suffered from some sort of diagnosable mental illness in the past year, according to the 2012 Survey of Mental Health by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
Young people from 18 to 25 had the highest rate, nearly at 30 percent. But about 5 percent of the U.S. population suffered from a serious mental health problem that "resulted in serious functional impairment, which substantially interfered with or limited one or more major life activities."
Looking across the world, experts say that cross-cultural differences, social and religious stigmas, and income levels often make it difficult to compare mental health diagnoses rates from country to country. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that the five developed countries with the highest rates of any kind of diagnosed mental health problems (including substance abuse) are Colombia, France, the Ukraine, New Zealand and the United States, according to a 2009 report.

Hotel TerraVina Adopts a Red Panda
We are delighted to have adopted one of the adorable Red Pandas at nearby Marwell Wildlife.
Red Pandas are currently listed as Vulnerable with less than 10,000 left in the wild and Marwell Wildlife is a charity dedicated to the conservation of animals just like this. Would you like to adopt a Red Panda?
It feeds mainly on bamboo shoots, grasses, roots, fruit and acorns but occasionally eats eggs, insects, young birds and small rodents. It sleeps high in the branches of the trees during the day, coming down to feed at dawn and dusk.
Red Pandas are very good-natured and it is thought that in the wild they live in family groups. In the spring, the female gives birth to one or two young in a hollow tree or rocky crevice. The young pandas stay close to their mother for the first year and the male pandas take no part in rearing the young.

Outrageous Manassas Park law enforcement raid on Rack n' Roll Billiards Club
From the Agitator:
The account at The Agitator goes on to describe continued police harassment of Ruttenberg. Radley Balko suggests that this all began because David Ruttenberg and a Manassas Park police officer (who is now head of the narcotics task force) had a romantic interest in the same woman, and that the continued harassment is an attempt to find a post facto reason to justify the original outrageous raid. If that's correct, the law enforcement officials responsible for this should not only be fired, they should be jailed.
On June 2, 2004, police in the the Washington, D.C. exurb of Manassas Park, Virginia brought in a multi-jurisdictional narcotics tax force and officers from several surrounding cities and counties to conduct a massive, 70-90 officer SWAT raid on the Rack n' Roll Billiards Club.
The raid took place on Ladies' Night, a Wednesday. Though the intent of the raid was to collect evidence of drug use and drug distribution by David Ruttenberg, the club's manager, it was conducted under the auspices of an Alcohol Beverage Control inspection. Because ABC is primarily a regulatory agency, the guise of an ABC inspection enabled the raid to take place without a search warrant.
After hours of scouring the club, searching every nook and cranny, and generally turning the place upside down, the only charges to follow against Ruttenberg were for two bottles of beer a distributor had left for sampling that weren't clearly marked "SAMPLE." The bar would later be charged with a few other minor offenses: one incident of serving alcohol to a minor, and with several incidents of flashing from customers during Mardi Gras.
UPDATE (December 19, 2006): Things are not looking good for Ruttenberg, as Radley Balko has described. And it looks like there's serious corruption in Manassas Park.
UPDATE (December 23, 2006): Balko presents evidence that the harrassment of David Ruttenberg has to do with the fact that he's sitting on the prime location for off-track betting in Manassas Park, which could potentially bring in tens of millions of dollars of revenue for the city. The harassment began four months before a referendum on the matter, which was defeated.
UPDATE (December 31, 2006): Here's video footage that depicts two men openly using cocaine in Ruttenberg's bar. He calls police, who refuse to take witness statements, escort the men outside, and let them go. (More info at The Agitator.)
UPDATE (January 8, 2007): And here's a link to some more video of harassment.
UPDATE (January 11, 2007): And here's some more background information on the harassment of David Ruttenberg, where a violent incident at another pool hall across town was added to a report about Rack and Roll.
UPDATE (September 11, 2007): Radley Balko reports that the appropriately-titled vice mayor of Manassas Park, who also worked as a DJ at Rack and Roll, was encouraging lewd behavior and nudity in the club which he photographed, and which ended up in a file in the possession of the city which was used to motivate officials to go after the club. At the same time, however, the city denied the existence of the file when Ruttenberg inquired after it, and Ruttenberg, to the extent he was aware of the activities in question, attempted to prevent them from happening.

Little Digits - Finger Counting
By Cowly Owl Ltd
This app is only available on the App Store for iOS devices.
June 2017 - A big update to Little Digits is coming soon, with additional features and multiple language support. Ignore any message about the app not working with future versions of iOS.
Little Digits is a fun educational app that teaches children about numbers by putting a new spin on finger counting.
Using the iPad multi-touch screen, Little Digits displays number characters by detecting how many fingers you put down. Children can learn to associate the number on the screen with the number of fingers they place down, whilst enjoying the unique characters and animations of the Little Digits world.
There are also games that introduce small addition and subtraction calculations, where you can work out the answer using the same multi-touch finger detection.
This is an app that will grow with your child's numerical understanding. Not only can they discover numbers through initial independent play, you can also play collaboratively with your child, each putting fingers down to count and work out calculations together. Then when your child is ready, they can work out the answers for themselves, using their own little digits!
The voice sounds are in English, but you can record new voices within the app.
- Counting to 10 with your fingers
- Number order; 0 to 10 and back
- Addition
- Subtraction
- Retina graphics
Child friendly app:
- No in-app purchases
- No third-party advertising
- No social media
Watch the video here:
Suitable for children between 3 - 7 years old.
Created by Cowly Owl, a British studio creating playful digital toys, educational apps and interactive experiences.

Customer Reviews
My three year old adores this app! At first I was tempted to delete the app until he was older because it seemed a little frustrating that he could not make his little fingers count and I had to sit next to him the entire time to help... Awful to admit but I give my son the iPad to get breaks to do chores and at first I was bummed that this app was the ONLY thing he wanted to play but could not do it on his own... But my son quickly memorized all addition and subtraction problems equaling up to ten that he did not need help. I do many Montessori activities with my son and honestly, no amount of time spent counting rods and stones could have taught my three year old how to add and subtract better than this app. The physical activities helped him understand the concept of adding and taking away but this app taught him to quickly memorize the problems.
Bad bad bad
No update for many moons. Doesn't work on iOS 11. Beware. Non responsive developer.
Fun stuff
What a great way for kids to interact with the iPad. Excellent graphics. I hope to see more apps like this.

TRIAL -> I modified MembreHolder to allow 2 children (MembrePage and MemberPage2)
RESULTS -> no change
TRIAL -> I tried to duplicate a membre page into the site tree (in the left column of the CMS. Seems cant do that..)
RESULTS -> dont know what to try....
Is there a way to replace MembrePage class ny MembrePage2 (which would be a duplicate of MembrePage) to wake-up the DB?
Any help appreciated.

According to the Florida Department of Elder Affairs, the state of Florida has more than 4.5 million residents ages 60 years and older.
More than 44,000 of those residents live in Leon County.
That's less than 1% of the state's 60+ population.
Over 200 baby boomers applied for the chance to live in Tallahassee for a year... for free... all thanks to Choose Tallahassee!
Four runners-up in the contest have left their home states for a free weekend in Florida's Capital City.
Local leaders will officially welcome the seven retirees to Tallahassee during tonight's reception at the Double Tree Hotel.
The event is from 5:30-7:00 pm.

Interrupting Burger Week For A Public Service Announcement From PETA
We're halfway through burger week, so we thought we'd take a break from the carnivorous coverage and take a look at this video from the folks at PETA.
Dubbed Stay Firm and Fresh, the newly released video suggests that men who adopt a vegan diet might be better in bed.
I played the link for a few ladies in my office, and the video did little to impress them. I expected an office awash in estrogen, but instead heard only muted "oh's" and several "oh my's."
None of my test subjects was seduced by the video, and while this was hardly a scientific study, I'm prepared to say that freshly griddled meat is more sexy than a horse carrot strapped to the crotch of a hipster with bad facial hair.
And now back to burger week ...

Hey. Out of some mix of (false?) modesty and other factors, I don't like to talk about what I actually do. Usually I have more room to talk about stuff but in this case, it's kind of a three way and one of the parties is shy. But if you really care, telnet to weehours.net 2000 and ask for me. Obviously I'm not going to let anyone's cat out of the bag, but I can give some background. If you care, that is.
SDL works okay as far as I know. For about anything, you can ignore the fact that SDL sucks in threads and just use POE, or Event, or write your own event loop, or use SDL's.
SDL's event loop doesn't have file watchers, and one of the requirements for this project is async communication with a server over an SSL socket. So that ain't going to fly. I can fork off waiting for mouse events in another process and then select() or use Event to watch for activity from either the mouse or the SSL socket. But I'm a Coro junkie.
It's really Coro that's touchy here, and that's to be expected as long as Coro is a module rather than a comprehensive core rework. And even then, the problem of XS is hard. Cory has to copy the C stack in and out. I have a reasonably good idea how C compilers, libc, dynamic linking, etc works, but not when it comes to threads, so I don't know why Coro and threads don't play nice together, but in this case, it looks like even loading libpthreads replaces malloc() with one that does things to the stack frame that aren't safe to do with Coro loaded. And it blows up.
The real trouble with SDL that maintainers should be notified of is the build system problems, and I filed a report. However it looks like there have been no releases since 2003. Off the top of my head. Maybe I'm misremembering. But I already said all of that in the main article. There's nothing they can be expected to do about the libs they link to (the C SDL libs) sucking in libpthread, especially since this isn't generally a problem.
The retarded thing that really makes this yak shaving is I'm supposed to be working on a bit of embedded-ish hardware (which I decided to use SDL and some XS libs I wrote to wrap the vendor's C++ libs) but I can't get their API to work right, so I'm just kind of prototyping on the x86 laptop. So, part of my motivation for making Coro work with SDL is that it frickin' works on the embedded board and I might have to/get to move development back there if the vendor get their act together.
Way more than you wanted to now? Sorry.
The board is from igamesplus.com by the way. That'll give you a clue what I'm working on here. Fun stuff.

With a vibrant, fresh style Suzanne Woods Fisher brings readers into the world of a young Amish woman torn between following the man she loves–or joining the community of faith that sustains her, even as she questions some of the decisions of her elders.

Prairie Home Companion
After reading Patricia Calhoun's "Little Grouse on the Prairie," I don't know what to hope for. If the stadium vote is jeopardized because of the legislature's greedy addition of Park Meadows and Lone Tree's commercial area, that's good. But if it means that we have to go through a stadium vote all over again and listen to millionaire Bowlen cry poor, that's bad. I don't think my tired old ticker can take another round.
Joe Washington
Calhoun's Lone Tree column was a terrific article! Thank God there's a newspaper that can come out and tell the truth and has the guts to print things. I wish your paper could knock these other pieces of crap right out of town. You publish good articles, I like what you write, and I love your paper. This whole damn deal with the Broncos is a ripoff.
Keep up the good work. I support your paper. Good job.
T. Leonard
The Heart of the Matter
I heard so much about all the recent deaths in Aurora, but I never knew about Laura Martinez ("Stabbed in the Heart," October 29). Tony Perez-Giese's piece was a fitting eulogy to a sad story. It is too bad that the dailies and TV get so caught up in the more sensational stories and miss things that are just as tragic. Domestic violence must stop!
Laura Robinson
What a terrible death. I hope the killer gets a life sentence or the death penalty. I was pleased to read that members of the community have assisted the Martinez family. But I do not agree with Guillermo Martinez Jr.'s anger concerning the lack of English-speaking police and hospital staff. According to the article, Mr. Martinez Sr. moved to the United States in 1988 and brought his wife and three children two years later. That means the family had eight to ten years here to learn English--but did not. It annoys me that Guillermo is angry at the police and hospital staff for not speaking Spanish, given his family's lack of learning to speak English.
We need look no further than Canada's problems with French vs. English to see what looms ahead for the U.S.A. And, yes, if I moved to a place with a standard language other than English, I would learn the language. I see it as common sense and respect to do no less.
Mark Milburn

Editor's note: Tony Perez-Giese's "Stabbed in the Heart" mistakenly said Denver police and paramedics responded to the call concerning Laura Martinez. They were from Aurora.
The Bus Stops Here
After years of watching the RTD board's antics, as Alan Prendergast so ably describes in his October 29 "One-Track Minds," the only solution would seem to be to condemn the board to a one-way ride on a No. 15 bus--in a snowstorm.
Harry Franks
The idiocy of the current debacle of the RTD board would be a farcical comedy if it didn't deal with so much of our tax money at risk. It crystallizes on some obvious issues and probabilities and, as usual, misses the most important points and issues.
The central point of any public transportation in any major city with massive numbers of working commuters riding in their private vehicles is incredibly simple: Will the public transportation provided significantly compete with the convenience, cost, time and efficiency of simply getting in your own car and driving to your job directly?
When you set aside all the good intentions and eco-patriotism that a metro rail system calls for, the answer amounts to a clear no. The major difference between the rail proposals of the tax-happy supporters and the reality of successful metro rail systems of other major cities is that the other metro systems account for a real competition with the convenience of the commuter in his own car to and from work.
Other pragmatic issues begin to crystallize. Will a rail system be ecologically beneficial? That is a serious question in light of the increased pollution as we squeeze cars in narrower corridors, kick up the dust in massive construction projects and then assume that the long-term benefits will justify it all with more people riding the rail. The problem is that as long as it takes probably twice the time or longer to get to work with any RTD, bus or rail, people would rather drive and park at work--massive traffic jams being a small problem compared to the convenience.
The long-term risk, and a serious risk at that, is that if a metro rail system in Denver fails to really compete with private riding commuters, after massive tax and bond expenditures the enormous deadweight debt that the public will be saddled with will create such a cynicism and bitterness that any valid pro-ecology proposal will be met with angry derision by the general public.
But the real question should be: Who really profits?
When the enthusiastic supporters of a metro rail system are the law firms that will certainly profit enormously from the bond sales, the developers who will have guarantees of customers shuttled through their malls, and the speculators who are buying up the rights of way in anticipation of massive profits upon enaction of the system, then the end goals of easing congestion and pollution become lost.
Max Winkler-Wang
The ongoing insanity of suburban development will not be
mitigated by light rail, buses or more freeways. As long as Americans believe that a personal fantasy of discretely placed housing counts more than actual community, the endless and mind-numbing traffic jams will only worsen. I say screw the suburban jerks who vote Republican and demand that the rest of us fix their commutes.
Let them rot on I-25.

Updated from 2:56 p.m. ET to include closing share prices and additional data throughout. NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - As Google ( GOOG) profits rise, the tech giant's tax rate continues to fall. After a so-called 'fiscal cliff' budget standoff led to rising tax rates for millions of Americans, the deal actually lowered Google's tax rate. Google said in an earnings call Friday, its falling tax rate benefited from the Congress's fiscal cliff deal, which was negotiated on January 2. Lawmakers extended a research and development tax credit helping firms such as Google, but scrapped a payroll tax cut and increased federal tax rates for individuals earnings over $400,000 and households earning over $450,000. An unexpected 50%-plus drop in income tax to just 8% of overall profits helped to drive Google's earnings, in a quarter that otherwise would have missed many Wall Street forecasts. The Mountain View, Calif-based company also said its income tax rates continued to decline because of a shift in its earnings mix between domestic and international subsidiaries. Google rose over 4% on the earnings report, closing at a share price of $799.87 in Friday trading. The seemingly unexpected tax benefit appears to account for a vast majority of Google's quarterly earnings growth, versus the first quarter of 2012. "Many of you may have noticed our effective tax rate that was very low, at 8% in Q1," Patrick Pichette, Google's Chief Financial Officer, said on an investor call Friday. "Please note that this quarter the rate reflects a recognition for the full-year benefit of our 2012 federal R&D tax credit, which Congress extended but, only retroactively in January of this year, so there was a catch-up for the full of 2012 in Q1. Additionally, there has been the usual mix shift of earnings between domestic and international subsidiaries that continue to impact our tax rate." Pichette could have cleared the air on Google's taxes by disclosing how the extension of a R&D tax credit would impact earnings when he presented at Morgan Stanley's media conference in late February. Companies often use such presentations to provide guidance on one-off earnings items. To be seen in coming quarterly filings is the extent to which Google is benefiting from R&D tax credits that are applicable to scores of tech giants and S&P 500 leaders, or from the impact of rising earnings attributable to lower tax international subsidiaries. In preliminary financial statements, Google booked a $358 million income tax receivable and lowered deferred income tax assets by $127 million to just over $1 billion. Bloomberg has reported extensively on how Google finds tax benefits from its international subsidiaries, for instance one in Ireland, that appear to shelter the company from U.S. taxes. In a move known as a "Double Irish," a company shifts income from a higher-tax country to those that have lower-tax rates. For now, Google's falling income tax rate appears to be a driver of the company's overall earnings growth. In the first quarter, Google reported income tax expense of just $287 million on $3.35 billion in net income, reflecting an 8% tax rate. A year-ago, the company reported income tax expense of $655 million on profits of $2.9 billion for a tax rate of about 22%. Overall Google's income tax expense fell about 56% and its rate fell over 60%. If it weren't for an income tax rate that was roughly half of forecasts, Google ( GOOG) would have missed earnings by 33 cents a share, according to Shaw Wu of Sterne Agee. The analyst said Google's better-than-expected earnings were not as good as they looked as a result of the company's unexpected drop in taxes. "Our concerns are the quality of earnings and gross margin in its core business continue to deteriorate," Wu, wrote in a note to clients Friday. "Moreover, we are somewhat surprised the company cut expenses
quarter-over-quarter versus investing more for growth." Google's earnings per share (EPS) would have been $10.36 or $1.22 lower, missing consensus estimates, if not for a much lower than expected tax rate, according to Wu. Google's net income grew about 15% year-over-year, aided by the tax benefit, while cash flow from operations fell slightly to about $3.5 billion.

Hey, everybody, Phil Simms has strong opinions about the 2014 quarterback draft class. But before you think about paying any attention to whether or not Simms thinks these youngsters will be able to play by THE BOOK, do yourself a favor and listen to literally anything else. The sound of the sea inside of conch shell. A fire alarm going off directly into your ear. Someone coughing up phlegm. Anything!
As a courtesy, here are a few suggestions off the top of my head:
1. This song
Summertime sure is great. ELITE, even. This song really captures that, I'd say.
2. A babbling brook
Soothing! But what's it babbling about? Trade rumors? Draft smokescreens? Seems like this is a brook in the know! Better stick around to see if it divulges its secrets.
3. Pipes that click in the walls
Pretty frustrating thing to have to frequently hear in your home. Plus you get the anxiety that comes with thinking that a pipe is going to burst and destroy your place. Nevertheless, still less bothersome than a Phil Simms commentary.
4. Vuvuzelas
Remember them? Well, now they're back
in Pog form annoying you, though still slightly less than Phil Simms.
5. The brown noise
Uh oh. You just shit your pants. That's embarassing. Take a look on the bright side: you didn't get enraged by Phil Simms. All in all, a win by any measure.

Pellevé & Zeltiq - Beauty Runs Hot & Cold
The legendary French designer, Coco Chanel, once said, "you can have a great body or a great face after forty – but you can't have both."
Although that might have been true in the past, I'm happy to report that with the introduction of two new revolutionary cosmetic treatments, you can have your cake and eat it too!
Pellevé™ – The Perfect Way to "Melt" Away the Years
Pellevé is a new FDA-approved procedure for the safe and effective treatment of facial wrinkles without injections or surgery. A Pellevé skin tightening treatment is also great for improving jowls and firming up loose skin around the neck. Pellevé is virtually painless – there's no anesthesia, no down time, no bruising.
Using advanced radiowave technology, Pellevé gently heats the deepest layers of the skin causing the skin's collagen to contract and tighten. During a treatment session, you will feel a warming sensation each time the Pellevé handpiece touches the area being treated. Because no anesthetic is required, you'll be able to describe the degree of warmth to the operator, which will help ensure the safest, most effective results.
- Following the procedure, the skin begins to produce new collagen, which results in improvement in quality, firmness and tightness you will be able to see and feel. Many people say "wow" when they see an instant improvement in the contour of their face. For the best results, a few treatments are usually performed about a month apart. Because treatments take only about an hour with no recovery time, Pellevé fits easily into busy schedules.
Zeltiq™ – The New "Cool" Way to Reduce Fat
The Zeltiq procedure is a new, non-invasive treatment that gently and effectively reduces fat in targeted areas of your body. Ideal candidates for Zeltiq are relatively fit, but have some modest-size fat bulges. Zeltiq can give you a psychological "boost" by jump-starting you diet.
In just one hour, you can lose bothersome love handles, muffin tops, pouches, bra rolls or excess fat in your abdomen while comfortably checking your e-mail, listening to your iPod or reading a book. With Zeltiq, there are no incisions, no anesthesia, no needles and no downtime.
- What makes Zeltiq unique is its advanced cooling technology that targets and eliminates fat cells in men and women without damaging the skin. During the treatment session, a non-invasive applicator is applied to the skin. The fat cells are specifically targeted and destroyed by the freezing temperature, whereas the overlying skin remains intact and undisturbed. Similar to liposuction, the targeted fat cells are destroyed permanently – but with no incisions, surgery or downtime.

wrz Phoenix, AZOct. 26, 2013 6:36 p.m.
"Generally speaking, when the GOP says 'grow the economy' it always entails cutting taxes for the wealthy."
That's because the wealthy pay 90 percent of the taxes.
"I am all for lower tax rates. I believe everyone is. But it is far from a given that it guarantees growth. And without growth, it does guarantee increased deficits."
Raising taxes, especially in a recession or stagnant economy, will guarantee a negative effect.
"Not forced to buy healthcare, but, will certainly head to the hospital the minute they get sick or hurt. And then, I am forced to help pay their bills. Is that fair?"
You are forced to help pay regardless. People are who pay. The government has no money to pay healthcare bills except from what it collects in taxes. And insurance companies don't have money to pay healthcare bills either, except from what they collect in premiums.
"...many physicians don't like the rate of return with medicare."
Many physicians won't take new Medicare patients... They won't even take Medicare-eligible people even if they offer to pay the fee out of pocket.
wrz Phoenix, AZOct. 26, 2013 2:13 p.m.
"Facts: Medicare and Medicaid are popular programs that are not going away. Healthcare costs have been rising very very quickly and will bankrupt this country going forward. Can anyone disagree with those? If so, make your case."
Medicare and Medicaid are going broke and will soon require a substantial increase in taxes, more borrowing from China, or both to survive.
"So, why would anyone advocate 'Do Nothing' when we know the consequences?"
Do nothing is the best choice if a viable economy is the objective. Obamacare is causing the loss of jobs and reduction of workweek hours to part time drastically effecting the economy. The choice is either to provide everyone with health insurance or have a vibrant economy. Obama has chosen the former... although he touts both.
"How about this. You cant complain unless you put forth a better idea."
How about this... go back to the starting gate, get a bipartisan healthcare bill with Republican as well as Democrat input. The current bill had NO Republican input or Republican aye vote. Democrats shut them out during the bill's development.

First of all a system that is responsible for the life and death of all our citizens, eats up 17% of our GDP, the highest % of any industrialized nation, has worse overall effectiveness than any other industrialized nation, while leaving millions out in the cold and financially ruining millions of others, needs to be changed.
Secondly, any change to such an entrenched and institutionalized system will have millions of winners and losers even if it's the most perfect system in the world, so whaling about those on the margins that are perceived as losers without acknowledging that most of them would have been considered losers in the old system is absolutely dishonest.
Lastly, facts. Average rate increases is 73%? Seriously? Even Forbes talks about 6 to 10 percent increases, with a decades long trend of higher deductibles. The only way you get your figure is to include the increase of those now paying insurance for the first time. Very deceptive.
Millions losing their insurance? Only those who's plans weren't up to standards in the first place, and those who's companies said you can get better insurance cheaper on the exchanges.

Medicare and Medicaid spending in 2010 was 3.6% of the GDP, which was listed at $13.24 Trillion dollars. That means that about $40,121 was spend on each man, woman and child in America in 2010 just for Medicare and Medicaid.
Does anyone see the foolishness of letting the Government administer an "additional" program to wipe our noses?
If all the money spent on Medicare, Medicaid and the IRS's "enforcement" of compliance were put into health savings accounts, everyone of us would have more health care available than we have ever had. Why won't anyone tell the world that Obama, just like the fabled emperor, is wearing no clothes.
American doesn't need another failed program. It's obvious, for those who will run the numbers, that the government has mismanaged Medicare and Medicaid. It is obvious that the government has mismanaged Social Security.
Why can't the Deseret News spare just one reporter to write an article on the huge waste that is taking place each year? Why won't anyone hold the government accountable for lying to us?

I am a patient of the VA hospital in Salt Sake. As a veteran of the Korean War era I am qualified even though I never sat foot on Korean soil. Years ago the people were well motivated and seemed happy with their work. Now I am finding problems with moral and dedication and it seems that private enterprise is the root of every incident. Much of the attitude came about the same time Obamacare was created.
If I had any influence, I would recommend that the government not hire any republicans for a while.

They do NOT make a profit. As far as opening the medical schools to more candidates - fine - so long as they are qualified. The right is correct to blame the government in most cases, especially this one.
Doing nothing is better than doing damage. Millions are losing their coverage because of obamacare and others are losing their doctors. It is also having a negative impact on the economy, reducing hiring, forcing more people to part-time work and cutting hours for those already working part-time. Virginia and DC have sued the feds to stop subsidies for people purchasing through the federal rather than state exchanges, because the law only says subsidies go to those buying through state exchanges. Even more will not be able to afford insurance and will be fined as a result. Maybe the GOP has not done enough to pull the victim out of the hole, but at least they are not dumping truckloads of dirt on them and burying them as Obamacare is doing.
Not all who go to the hospital without insurance do not pay.
"cutting taxes for the wealthy" They are the only ones paying income taxes.

To "marxist" how can you say that Medicare works so great? You realize that they lose 2 times as much much every year than private insurance companies do, while insuring half as many people.
You also forget that Medicare rejects more claims that private companies do.
They also have cut their Doctor reimbursement rates so low that many doctors are not willing to lose money caring for Medicare patients.
What is so great about it?
To "JoeBlow" since health insurance costs are rising and will bankrupt the nation, how does an average increase of 73% in the price of insurance help anything? That is the average rate increase out of 45 states.
Had "nothing" been done, insurance would be cheaper today and cover more things than it does under the ACA.
The ACA forces you to buy health insurance. If you don't, you will either go to jail or will have the IRS garnishing your wages. Explain how that is not forcing people to buy insurance.
Badgerbadger Murray, UTOct. 25, 2013 11:01 a.m.
Actually Obamacare does effect health care costs. It drives them UP UP UP!
Think about it. Everyone has to buy insurance. They don't have to sell a great product. They don't have to win over customers with great service. The customers are commanded to come to them.
The insurance companies are limited to keeping 15% to use to run the program and profits. They must pay out 85%. (oh that the federal government were that efficient, but that is another issue altogether) The only way to increase what the insurance company keeps is for them to drive up the costs, so that 15% is more money.
The federal government is now rewarding insurance companies for driving up the cost of health care.

Re: Lost in DC "Medicare for all would have resulted in many physicians leaving the business because the compensation for many procedures does not cover the cost." This statement must be subject to check. More likely, many physicians don't like the rate of return with medicare. It is not that they don't make a profit. That is certainly the case with my former greedy shrink. Were I elected to national office as a socialist I would deal with this defection by expanding the physician pool through more training. I'd break the AMA monopoly over medical schools (advocated by none other than Milton Friedman BTW) and their admissions. Moreover I would examine the artificial barriers facing foreign trained physicians put in place the same AMA. Workarounds are possible if we have the will.
The political right always accuses government, but leaves private enterprise (like the AMA) blameless.

"Healthcare costs have been rising.... and will bankrupt this country ......
Since you and I agree with that fact, which by the way I truly believe that Obama and most Democrats don't, then it is obvious to us that something needs to be "done". Now the question is "what". My simple mind says, increase revenue to the IRS, and quit spending every penny the IRS gets, and stop borrowing when the IRS runs out of money. How to get more money to the IRS? Basically two options. Increase taxes on everyone, which would be only a short term solution, and or grow the economy, which could be a decades long solution. With a growing economy, the first option, raising taxes, would take care of itself because of more tax payers and higher taxes from people earning more money. I know what option I think works best. Growth. Whatever government can do to get growth should be our goal.

Yes, but medicare works quite well. Getting on medicare was bewildering, a little, but I made it without too much sweat, same with social security. Those of us on the left wanted "medicare for everybody" because we believed, realistically I think, that the extension would have gone smoothly over several months because necessary software is already written. The only obstacle was information storage, but that is cheap these days. "Medicare for all" went nowhere because both of the major political parties are substantially owned by the insurance business, and such had to be served. So we get the very complex ACA with all of its nods and bows to the insurance business.
Government will be in the mix increasingly because of the complexities of our world, riding the wave of technology, which is complex. Climate change, environmentally caused disease, global corporations - all of these things are accelerating the complexity of our systems. So national and international government will be increasingly involved. There founders could not see this coming, with the possible exception of prescient Alexander Hamilton.

Leading In The Face Of Adversity And Sorrow
As many of my long-time readers know, I publish new articles on leadership here on my blog every Tuesday. Now I had a piece written up that I was in the process of editing for publication this week, but a recent attack in my home province has lead me to shelve that piece so that I can share something a little more personal, and hopefully inspiring for how we can do better going forward.
This past Sunday night, news broke out that a native Quebecer – emboldened by the rise in right-wing, anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim sentiments across North America and Europe – walked into a Quebec City mosque and began shooting at the men, women, and children praying inside, killing 6 people and wounding 19 others. It's the worst act of terrorism to ever happen in my country.
Within a mere 24 hours, I went from feeling hopeful optimism at seeing people around the world rally together in solidarity against the bigotry, fear-mongering, and hate exemplified by Trump's Muslim ban – to outright horror, anger, and sadness at how one of my fellow Quebecers could think it was acceptable to destroy the lives of innocent families simply because he has a problem with their faith.
As I write this, my emotions are still raw, my heart heavy and aching, and tears well up when I look at my daughters and imagine what kind of world will await them. Make no mistake, my province does have issues with racism, Islamophobia, and antisemitism. But I never imagined that this kind of hate would find expression in the form of a terrorist attack so close to home.
As I sat here trying to prepare my latest leadership piece for publication, I realized that I couldn't simply act as though nothing happened because something did happen. Something that will now forever change who we are as Quebecers, and how we must go about seeing and understanding ourselves going forward.
Of course, whenever an event arises that shatters our perceptions of our community and country, there is an understandable need to try and make sense of it; to understand how such a horrific act of terrorism could happen where we live, and what good, if any, we can find in this darkness that's fallen upon us.
And so, I wanted to address this tragedy from the point of leadership – of what do we do when faced with adversity and sorrow, not from failing to land a new client, but when tragedy strikes that affects those we lead at their very core.
To date, I've been genuinely impressed and touched by the actions of politicians at all levels here – from the mayor of Quebec City and our Quebec Premier, all the way to our Prime Minister and the leaders of our federal opposition parties. Each of them recognized the importance of not only expressing solidarity and inclusion in the face of terrorism and unbridled hatred towards Muslims, but of reaching out to the Muslim community to let them know you're not alone and you're one of us.
It's a powerful message, not simply because it reasserts the values of Quebec and Canada – those of championing multiculturalism, a shared identity, and our collective and individual freedoms – but it also sends a much needed message to the Muslim community, a minority group that's a regular victim of stigmatization and vilification. The message: you belong here and you matter.
The simplicity of this message reveals an important point that leaders everywhere need to recognize: Click here to continue reading »"Leading In The Face Of Adversity And Sorrow"

I am 24 years old and I've always had a large chest. I was a c cup in middle school and they increased over the years until I came to be a 38 DDD. I have lost some weight but I still have about 30lbs left to lose. My breasts have never been "perky" but they aren't flat or deflated- they are pretty much normal (to me) except that my nipples are extremely low. Would weight loss accompanied by weight training help lift them just a little or is surgery my only option?

Breast lift/reduction
Unfortunately, weight training will not lift the breasts. If you do lose more weight your breasts might actually become more deflated and sag a little bit more. From your picture it looks as if you are great candidate for a beast reduction. This will reduce the size and give you a higher more perky breast with smaller areolas. The procedure is often covered by insurance as well. I hope this helps you.
Kindest regards,

Weight training does not lift breasts
Weight training will not lift your breasts, the only option is surgery. You would benefit from a new procedure called The Ultimate Breast Lift. No vertical scars or boat anchor shaped incision are required. The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying muscle, which helps maintain the higher position. This also maintains areola sensitivity and the ability to breast feed.
Best Wishes,

Weight training is good, but will not lift breast
Strengthening your chest muscles with weight training will have no effect in lifting your breasts. You most likely need a surgical breast reduction which reduces breast volume and provides a breast lift as part of the procedure. Weight training may result in weight loss and for many women loss of breast volume. You should get to your weight loss goal and then see a board certified plastic surgeon for advise regarding a breast lift or reduction depending on your breast volume at that time. Good luck.

Weight training is good, but not for lifting ptotic breasts. You need a full breast lift for that!
Sorry, but a full breast lift (or cosmetic reduction to the degree you wish--each operation has the same exact scar pattern, so you can choose the final size you want) is necessary to raise nipple position to a forward-facing direction. Weight training helps only your muscle tone, but will do nothing to raise or tighten your breast skin, as my colleagues agree.
Weight loss to your stable, healthy weight is preferable prior to surgery, so your breasts can be "tailored" to the appropriate proportions.
See one or more ABPS-certified plastic surgeon experienced in breast reduction/breast lift surgery and get more information. You can also click on the web reference link below for photographs of my patients who underwent breast lift to get an idea of the scars that result from this surgery. Best wishes! Dr. Tholen

Weight training has no effect on ptotic (droopy) breasts.
Weight training has absolutely no effect on breast position, unless you work out without breast support in which case you breasts would get droopier. Surgery will correct the problem but there are considerations to be made (incisions and convalescence) before proceeding.

Weight Loss and Weight Lifting to Improve Breast Appearance?
Thank you for the question and pictures.
No, weight-loss and/or weight training will not help you in regards to breast lifting. If anything, you may find that the breast will be less "perky" with ongoing weight loss. Breast lifting/ reduction surgery will likely be necessary to achieve your goals.
As you may know, breast lifting involves some degree of tightening and lifting of the breast skin envelope and tissue. In order to tighten the skin envelope, skin excision is necessary; this results in the presence of scars. Sometimes, the presence of scars is a "dealbreaker"; patients would prefer to leave their breasts unchanged than to have scars. At other times, patients prefer to have the improvement in breast position, shape, and (possibly) size and are willing to accept the trade-off of scars.
Best wishes as you strive to reach your goals.

I'm 24 Years Old I Am a 38 DDD but my Breasts Sag. Will Weight Training Lift Them a Little?
From your photo it is very clear that you would benefit greatly from a breast reduction which includes a lift. Development of the chest wall muscles will have no effect whatever on breast size or position.
Sorry but weight training will not lift your breast
Weight loss may help reduce the volume of the breast and build muscle, however the weight lifting will do little to lift the nipple and shape the breast. Breast reduction is a very good option.

Weight training tones muscles, not breast tissue
HotKat2988: regrettably, weight training is ineffective in raising your nipples to a higher position. Steady, sustained weight loss will result in shrinkage of the fatty component of your breasts, which will reduce your cup size but may also lead to further "sag". As you are still very young, consider delaying surgery until you have had your family, as the influence of pregnancy hormones may reverse any surgical gains you may obtain from breast lifts. Good luck.

LONDON—The hardest part of a journey is often the last mile. Twenty-five years after health workers started a campaign to rid the world of the guinea worm, cases have been reduced by over 99%. But the 1800 or so that still occur annually pose a threat to worldwide eradication efforts and will be the hardest and most expensive to address.
At a press conference here today, the United Kingdom's international development minister, Stephen O'Brien, announced that the government will be donating about £20 million ($31 million) over 4 years to finish the eradication effort, led by the Carter Center in Atlanta—provided others donors come forward with the remaining £40 million needed.
If it succeeds, the campaign would make guinea worm only the second human disease to be eradicated—after smallpox—and the first to disappear through behavioral change instead of a vaccine. The parasite, once abundant across Africa and South Asia, is now confined to only four countries. Mali, Ethiopia, and the newly independent South Sudan—which accounts for 98% of cases—have not yet interrupted its transmission; and to the disappointment of eradication leaders, a few isolated cases also occurred last year in Chad, which had previously been declared worm-free.
The guinea worm is spread when people ingest its larvae through contaminated drinking water; the larvae incubate inside the human host and emerge painfully through the skin as fully grown, 1-meter-long worms a year later. Speaking at the conference, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, who at 87 still spearheads the campaign, recalled the first time he observed a worm emerging from a young woman's breast. The woman's excruciating pain "brought tears to my eyes," he said.
Since the worm can grow only inside the human body, it could be eliminated entirely if no new infections occurred. Simple behavioral changes such as filtering drinking water and discouraging people with an emerging worm from walking into ponds and lakes have reduced cases of guinea worm from 3.5 million in 1986 to 1797 in 2010. But finishing the job has been difficult, and the original deadline of 1995 has been moved back several times.
Among the problems, Carter said, is that Africans often resist the idea that local, sacred ponds are dangerous. War and unrest have caused major setbacks as well—although negotiations led by Carter resulted in an interruption in the Sudanese civil war in 1995 that allowed the campaign to go forward. Surveillance remains the most difficult challenge. Health workers have canvassed 23,600 villages in Africa to teach people about prevention and distribute water filters, but most of the remaining cases occur in remote, isolated locales. "It's easier to spot a wildfire than a smoldering twig," World Health Organization Director-General Margaret Chan said at this morning's conference.
The Carter Center's current goal is eradication worldwide—defined as three consecutive years of no reported cases—by 2015. The £20 million from the U.K. government, which O'Brien said is the first of many new contributions to neglected tropical diseases that the United Kingdom plans to make, is one-third of the amount Carter says is needed. The money will go toward providing health education and training, digging clean wells, and providing tools such as water filters and larvicide to communities.
Chan called on others to follow suit. It has been difficult to keep up attention and funding for the disease because it's not usually fatal, she said: "For most of the world, this is an invisible worm. Out of sight, out of mind, living in remote areas beyond the end of the road." Holding Carter's hand, she thanked him and the U.K. government for their "do-good spirit in this time of austerity."
Correction: The number of cases of guinea worm was 3.5 million in 1986, not 1996.

Grilled Middle Eastern Turkey Burgers with Yogurt Sauce
(Makes 4 large or 6 medium turkey burgers, recipe slightly adapted from Fine Cooking Grilling Volume 2.)
1 1/2 lb. ground turkey
1 tsp. finely minced garlic
1 1/2 tsp. salt (I used fine sea salt)
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (I used curly parsley, but either type will work)
2 T olive oil
2 tsp. sweet paprika
1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin (recipe called for 1 tsp., but I love cumin so I used a bit more)
1/2 tsp. ground coriander
1/4 tsp. Aleppo pepper (recipe called for cayenne, and any type of ground red pepper would work)
Use a paper towel to wipe surface of grill with olive oil, then heat charcoal or gas grill to medium heat. (You can hold your hand over the grill for 3-4 seconds at that temperature.) When grill is hot, remove patties from the fridge and brush the top of each one with olive oil if desired. (You may not need to do this if your grill is well-seasoned.) Put oiled side down on grill grate and grill with lid closed. If you want criss-cross grill marks, check after about 4 minutes, and rotate patties. Cook about 5-6 minutes per side, or until temperature of patties reaches 165 F /75C when tested with an instant-read thermometer.
Burgers can be served plain, on a regular hamburger bun, or inside pita or flatbread like I did. I served my burgers with Tzatziki Sauce that had some added chopped mint and parsley. You could also serve these with Yogurt Tahini Sauce, Creamy Cucumber Sauce, Tartar Sauce, Ranch-Style Dip, or even Cafe Rio Style Creamy Tomatillo Dressing.

Is it a tic or a nervous habit?
My daughter just turned 9. She has always been & still is a major picker of bumps and sores. So bad she is covered in scars. About 1 year ago she started clearing her throat all the time. That stopped now she makes this strange mouth movement all the time. Sometimes I think she is aware and sometimes not. Those around her notice. It seems to go from one strange thing to another and lasts for months. (She also still wets the bed almost every night.) She is a well mannered and healthy child. Could it be a medical issue or just an attention getter? What does this mean & what can I do to help?
As your daughter is 9 years old and still bed wetting, it is reasonable to see a pediatric urologist and have her assessed for any possible physical component to this issue. Nine years old is getting into the upper age end of this being an average developmental issue vs. a true physical disorder.
As for the repetitive actions and skin picking, it may be wise to consult a pediatric neurologist to help ascertain if this is a neurologically based issue or a behavioral issue. If behavioral, counseling may be of benefit. Hopefully, your pediatric health care provider can assist in figuring out this situation
