BEIRUT — Syrian warplanes and artillery blasted parts of the capital Damascus and its rebellious suburbs on Sunday, part of what activists described as intense fighting as rebels try to push their way into the centre of President Bashar Assad's power base.
In central Syria, a car bomb killed at least 15 people, the official news agency reported.
The fighting over the past few weeks in Damascus is the most serious in the capital since July, when rebels captured several neighbourhoods before a swift government counteroffensive swept them out.
The Britain-based activist group Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said fighter jets struck twice in the suburb of Daraya as regime artillery pounded other districts just south of Damascus.
The Syrian air force also launched airstrikes on the northern city of Aleppo, some cities in the northern province of Idlib and the Mediterranean city of Latakia, the Observatory said. The group relies on reports from activists on the ground.
The Damascus suburbs have been opposition strongholds since the uprising against Assad began in March 2011. In the past weeks, the army has pressed an offensive to regain lost territory near the capital, including two airbases. The Observatory said there was also ongoing fighting in towns near the Damascus International Airport on the southern edge of the city. The towns include Aqraba, Beit Saham and Yalda.
The road to the airport from Damascus was closed on Thursday because of heavy fighting, but authorities reopened it after troops secured the area, activists said. The Information Ministry said on Saturday the airport was operating normally and that the road leading to the facility is "totally secure."
On Sunday, EgyptAir Chief Executive Roshdy Zakaria said the country's national carrier will resume flights to Damascus and Aleppo after a three-day suspension because of poor security on the roads around the two airports.
In central Homs province, a car bomb exploded near Omar Bin al-Khattab mosque in the al-Hamra neighbourhood of Homs, killing at least 15 people and wounding 24, state-run SANA news agency said.
Activists said seven people died in the attack. The Observatory said the death toll is likely to rise because some were critically wounded.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility.
In a village just outside Homs, two other people were killed by artillery shelling, including a baby girl, the Observatory said.
Homs has been a frequent battleground in the 20-month rebellion aimed at toppling Assad.
The increase in bombing attacks as part of the civil war has raised concerns that Islamist extremist groups are taking a larger role on the side of the rebels.
SANA claimed that on the outskirts of Homs, the Syrian army killed scores of rebels in an attack on their hideouts.
Activists say at least 40,000 people have been killed in the conflict, which began with peaceful pro-democracy protests but turned into a civil war.
While fighting has intensified nationwide in the past weeks, members of the new Syrian opposition leadership coalition held talks in Egypt on a transitional government.
The Syrian National Coalition for Opposition and Revolutionary Forces was established earlier this month in Qatar under pressure from the United States for a stronger, more united opposition body to serve as a counterweight to the more extremist forces which have joined the fight against Assad's regime — some of them foreign jihadists.
The coalition members said they have agreed on the framework of a transitional government with 10 ministers. Walid Albunni, the coalition's spokesperson, said its members will speed up the decision-making process and name the prime minister in the coming days to keep up with developments on the ground.
"We have to work as fast as possible to be ready for the downfall of the regime," Albunni said Saturday at the end of a three-day meeting in Cairo, where the opposition body is based.
Albunni said the coalition could support a United Nations peacekeeping force in Syria, but only after Assad is toppled.
"Anything can happen after all those who have stained their hands with blood of people are gone," Albunni said.

Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy at the Heat Premiere
Best Friends Sandra and Melissa Bring The Heat to the Big Apple
Sandra Bullock, who showed off her body in a skintight leather dress, buddied up with Melissa McCarthy to debut their film, The Heat, in NYC last night. The real-life best friends were joined by their director, Paul Feig, who is best known for his work on Bridesmaids, and costar Marlon Wayans, along with the rest of the cast for the Big Apple premiere. Also in attendance were Brooke Shields and her husband, Chris Henchy, as well as Girls star Zosia Mamet. Along with having Sandra by her side, Melissa had the support of her husband, Ben Falcone, who makes a cameo in the film, as well as her other BFF, Jennifer Esposito, at the festivities. We were on the red carpet to chat with Sandra, Melissa, and other stars from the film, so be sure to stay tuned to POPSUGAR Live! for our interviews.
Sandra has been busy on the promotional tour for her Summer comedy ahead of its release on June 28. She popped up in Boston for a screening of The Heat last Thursday night after premiering the film overseas. Sandra donned a sexy backless dress for the London premiere of her funny flick last week.

I've read the handful of threads about this cam and it seams that every manufacturer has different specs. I guess it REALLY doesnt matter but does anyone know of a current supplier with the correct specs on their grind? I've heard stories of how kick ass they sounded and for the application it would make me feel better knowing I have the correct grind. Also, were gear drives common back in they day? I think it would be a cool combo with the solid lifters.
Stolen from cyberspace. For the Comp hydraulic 30-30 : advertised duration: 286 intake/293 exhaust, duration @ .050 : 239 /246 , lift : .483" /.477" , lobe center: 112 degrees. For the Comp cams solid lifter reproduction Duntov 30-30, P/N 12-673-4, specs are: advertised duration: 284 intake/291 exhaust, duration @ .050 : 247 /254 , lift : .504" / .498", lash: .012" lobe center: 112 degrees
my father in law put a 30 30 cam in his 32 sedan, it had a real mean idle to it. he had a hard time finding someone that even heard of a 30 30 cam. but after all the work to find it and install it. he removed it because it killed his fuel mileage.
That cam was so famous and now it has become a mystery. I had one in a 38 chevy with a 301. I'll do some research and see if I have something old enough to be genuine chevy in specs.
I've run a couple of those. We actually used to set the last at .028/.028 - gave just a little bit better lift, and with Chevron Supreme (white pump/106 octane) at 30 cents a gallon....we didn't need no stinkin mileage. You can put together a 301, pair of 2.02 doublehump heads, use the 30/30 cam and a genuine GM Z28 Intake with a good Holley and that will be one of the best little street engines around, with some serious sounds burbling out of the pipes. dj
Spot-on propwash. It was "the" cam to have and seems like everyone has taken advantage of the mystery as of late. Steven.
I ran that set up in a 57 Chevy, except my intake was an old TM1 Edelbrock..What a great little engine..
Speed Pro's C113R is the small fuel injected 283 "Duntov" and the specs are the same as Chevy's "097 Duntov" They have the 30-30 but I don't have the specs here at home I have the info at work. The 30-30 is the name the cam got 'cause of the .030" lash. Modern cam grind profiles got away from the big lash. The Comp Cams cam is a good one. I'm not a fan of small block Chevies with gear drives unless you are buildin' a sprint car. Smokey
several years ago I bought 4 of the millings packaged cams. Part number C10P. The rep from mellings said they ground this cam for GM and shiped it to them in GM boxes.. I am running one of these cams in my sportsman circle track car. Pull great. no body belives I run this small of a cam. If any one cares the 097 cam is millings C8P part no. I have set these on 8 and 18 and some times 12 and 18..THe solid lifter no is J992 and the edge orfice unit that replaced the J992 is JX 992.. I have used these 2 cams for around 40 years.. Bobby.......
It's a properly balanced 327 with 10:1 forged, 2.02 humps, an old single plane Edelbrock and an AFB. Going in my '55. All the veterans at my local hangout suggested it right away. "OHHHHHH MAAAAAN....... I TELL YOU WHAT! THAT CAM WAS OUTTA SIGHT!!! THAT'S THE MEANEST IDLE EVER AND THAT 327 WILL SPIN TO THE MOOOOOON!!! THAT THING'L RATTLE LIKE HELL BUT IT'S COOOOL!!!! (so who sells 'em anymore... anybody got an old cam card?) "aww hell, I dunno. I got one somewhere."
I just looked in an old "how to hot rod your small chevy" book, originally printed in 1972. It lists the "Duntov" cam as #3736097. Intake 317 deg./ .382" , Exhaust 288 deg./ .386". It shows a different cam for the 30-30 cam, #3849346. 313 deg./ .447" lift, in single pattern. I liked the Crane Hydraulic L-79 cam. It had the 270-ish duration and the .447 lift. It was in thier blueprint series, and sounded BAD ASS ina 283 with glasspacks. good luck!
Had a Duntyov cam in a 327 that was in a '64 Vette I had back in the 70's, ran like a Beast & sounded great. Wish I still had that motor.
#### This is the correct info as how I remeber it. I bought one of these back in the 70s and the race engine builder I hung around looked at the specs and said ""It's gonna make way more RPMs than that ol 283 you got will ever withstand"" And guess what he was right !!! >>>>.
From what I understand about the 30-30 cam (from listening to my Dad and Uncle) is that they were great for the track, not worth a shit on the street. The 30-30 cam was made to perform 4,000 rpm+ . But, like you, I would like to see the exact cam specs...... All I can find is 30-30 copy grinds from different cam companies, but none of them are the same.
Be advised that a 30/30 cam is a mean cam in a small displacement motor 301 and smaller but in a 327 it acts like a 300 hp cam. The idle is less radical and it does not seem to make as much power. From the days when I had hair!
I have a hard time imagining that a cam from the early 60's for a SBC ran that much intake and exhaust duration.
The 327 in my '55 was built in the late '70s and has a Duntov 30-30. Driven very little until I bought it two years ago. Very choppy idle and it sounds more like a cammed-up Rat than a Mouse. I agree with Fuzzy that it doesn't pull as hard as it sounds. Mufflers are old Thrush Hush "Hemi" long turbos with short pipes that dump ahead of the differential so the sound is worth it alone. (M22 4spd/4.30 gears).
Very true on the big engines calming a radical cam down. This: For the Comp hydraulic 30-30 : advertised duration: 286 intake/293 exhaust, duration @ .050 : 239 /246 , lift : .483" /.477" , lobe center: 112 degrees. is very close to one Crower cam I ran in the 462" Buick a few years back. Sounded cool when the engine was cold or not quite warm, but once warmed up, it didn't sound quite so rad. A K-B cam with virtually the same timing, but an 118* lobe separation did about the same, but once warm it sounded like an old Ford 8n tractor....
The 097 cam was a factory solid lifter Corvette cam for the 283 engine. Probably the FI cam but I'm not certain of it's original engine but probably the 283-283 FI or the 283-270 HP engines. The 097 was the last 3 digits of the part number. If you walked into a Chevy dealer parts dept and asked for an 097 you got this cam. I don't know the specs. An iconic cam from that era but not as hot as the 327-365 cam that came later. Every time a new cam came out it soon overtook the old grinds. The 327 came out in 1962. I think each year the solid lifter engines changed in their HP ratings. The solid lifter 327 reached it's peak in 1964. We always referred to it as the 365 cam because that was the rated HP of the carbureted solid lifter Corvette that year. I'm pretty sure it shared the same cam with the Fuel inj 375 Hp engine. It used the 30-30 lash settings and was nick named the 30 30 cam. My 63 327-340HP solid lifter Corvette had smaller valves and a different cam than the 365 30-30 cam In 65 they came out with the L-79 327-350 HP HYDRAULIC lifter cam. This quickly passed the 365 cam because it did not need constant adjustment. The solid lifter cams used nuts that were slightly squashed so that they would not easily back off. But they did so the polylock was invented. To get a solid lifter early Chevy to really run, you needed a hefty 410/456 rear gear to get them to wind up. Not the best for a street driven sedan. So many of the facts have blurred over time and often repeated after reading them on a message board. These are the facts that I lived. These cams took on mythical proportions because they were cheap and available at every Chevy dealer for the street racer. There were better options but not as cheap. To answer your question look up the factory specs for a 1964 327-365HP Corvette if you want to be technically correct. PS the real heavy hitter street racers only claimed that they had the 30-30 cam. They were running Isky or some other racing cam. We had guys running roller cams on the street.
I have a hard time imagining that a cam from the early 60's for a SBC ran that much intake and exhaust duration. Easy - it's just paper duration, the ramps are waayyy longer than anyone would use today. They were made to have great valve to piston clearance, run 40,000 miles with weak valve springs and pencil pushrods, and not break the stock rods and pistons. How to get that kewl sound: reverse the #5 & 7 plugs wires, and punch a hole in your PCV hose.
When the factory built a 301 to go trans am racing they rounded the 301.6 cubic inches up to 302, that way the uninitiated public thought they came up with something new. They also used the .030"-.030" cam. This was for the production car, of which they had to sell a certain number to qualify to race. They also supplyed the racers with "off-road" cams. There were first and second designs. We recently found the second design in reproduction, I believe it was Comp (not sure). This is a much better cam but in a 301 it has the same characteristics of suddenly coming on strong after the tach passes about 3500, but it likes to go to 8500, where as the "30-30" was good to 7500. The 079 cam has the great sound, and in a fairly mild 327 would be a better choice, but come on! A hydraulic can't come even close to producing the area under the curve that a solid will. And all this hype about having to adjust the valves all the time, Here's the deal: There are two things that cause the need for adjustment; wear and something moving. Use Shell Rotella for the wear problem, and poly-locks for the movement. If this is done you will find that the only time they don't sound quite right is after a night of really hard running/fun. And then it's just a 30 minute job to adjust the valves, and while your in there tighten the headers, set the timing, clean and gap the plugs. Oh, we are building a hot rod, aren't we??? By the way, the factory designs were good for maybe 100,000 miles. That's why the ramps were so gentle, same for the lift. The off road cams were more tailored to racing and used a stronger spring, and therefore could not be expected to live as long, 40,000 sounds reasonable for them.

I've learned how to die - put vodka in my drip! One woman's furious, funny and unflinchingly honest account of how she came to accept her terminal diagnosis
- Lindy Jones was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2010
- She was given between two and five years to live
- MND attacks brain and spinal nerves and leads to loss of muscle function
The phone rings. I can't articulate words but, thinking it might be the palliative care team at my hospice, I answer. 'Hewo,' I say. 'Hello?' The voice is suspiciously cheery, which can mean only one thing.
A cold caller. All I need. 'I ill.'
'Sorry, didn't quite catch that. My name is Sean, I hope I haven't caught you at a bad moment.'
'I'm 'ying [I am dying],' I gurgle into the receiver.
Days of joy: Lindy Jones in 2008, two years before the symptoms of motor neurone disease began
'Sorry Mrs Jones, the line's a little unclear. You don't sound well, are you all right?'
'No.' My inner bitch shouts out before I can restrain her.
'Perhaps you should sit down then, take it easy Mrs Jones, goodbye.' He slams the phone down and I can almost hear his sigh of relief. P*** off and leave me alone, I scream in my head. I imagine him telling the other people at the call centre about the crazy woman he called today.
Terminal illness does not transform us into the glamorous heroines or patient saints of novels. My husband Gareth drove me home from the hospital after the words 'motor neurone disease' had first been mentioned by the improbably named neurologist Dr Mort in 2010. As a literature student, I had devoured the doomed romances of Emily Bronte and Sylvia Plath. Later, as head of English at a secondary school, I taught their work to my students – and had often, in my head, cast myself as a tragic leading lady should such a dreadful situation ever arrive.
Instead, sitting in the passenger seat of a bright green Ford Fiesta, I was merely a plump, middle-aged woman, howling noisily into sodden balls of tissue paper.
Communication was my job. Endless numbers of words rolled off my tongue, without me giving any thought as to the importance of the muscle. Talking was my life. But that spring and summer I had noticed strange symptoms: a sticky-feeling throat, a sore tongue, jokey accusations from friends that I was drunk. One morning I woke to find dribble oozing from the left side of my mouth.
Losing the battle: Lindy at home with her husband Gareth, 56, and sons Robbie, 24 and Owen, 23, and their beloved dog Scrappy
As a healthy person, my highly strung personality was often focused on the knowledge that a terrible catastrophe could, and probably would, occur at any time. Gareth had lived for long enough with my worries about the spot or mole that might be skin cancer, or the dreadful headaches that signified a brain tumour, to not take any notice of my medical dramas – they were put down to too much watching Casualty on television.
The catastrophe that finally descended was beyond my worst imaginings. 'Does my tongue look weird?' I asked him one evening. I might as well have asked him if I looked fat. 'No, Pindles [his nickname for me], it's just a tongue,' he replied turning back to the newspaper.
But our handsome Dutch GP told me he thought I might have had a stroke. Of course, once I got the true assessment of my condition, a stroke or cancer would definitely have been preferable.
It all happened so fast. My GP referred me to a neurologist immediately. So in August 2010, I found myself sitting in the waiting room of the neurology department of a North London hospital trying not to look like a patient. I was wearing a leopardskin print dress and red sandals.
I was completely confident that when Dr Mort saw me striding into his consulting rooms, he would immediately realise that I was here by mistake.
'You're slurring,' he remarked.
Motor neurone disease (MND) damages the nervous system, causing muscles to waste away.
As the condition progresses, sufferers find activities impossible.
What causes MND is unclear, but it has been seen to run in families.
There is no cure. Treatment aims to improve quality of life.
Patients typically live up to five years.
Most sufferers die painlessly in their sleep.
I was shocked that he had noticed. There was a script in my head, and he wasn't following it. He smiled warmly. 'Now Mrs Jones, can you move your tongue from side to side?'
'Of course,' I replied, puzzled.
But when I opened my mouth to show off the marvellous strength of my tongue, I became terribly aware that it moved at a very slow rate, like an elderly tortoise.
'I see. Any weight loss?'
'I wish,' I said, patting my fat menopausal stomach and emitting a great guffaw. He didn't respond. 'Do you often laugh?' he asked. What? Was he making judgments about my personality? I now know that one of the symptoms of the disease I have is uncontrollable and inappropriate outbursts of laughing or crying. He said that he wanted to run tests for MND.
I'll tell you right now that going on the internet after a consultation with a neurologist is definitely not a good idea. MND is a progressive disease that attacks the motor neurones – or nerves – in the brain and spinal cord.
These neurons send messages to the muscles. Once they've fizzled out, it's all over. Muscles atrophy and you are trapped in your own body.
When the diagnosis was confirmed two weeks later, in my head I was a frail, gaunt version of my former self. Pale, but still glamorous, asking in a wobbly, yet strong voice how long I had to live.
In reality I emitted a terrified squawk, the question was stuttered out between sobs, and I was neither slender or brave. His answer wasn't comforting. 'Probably two to five years.'
That took me to 60, if I was lucky. What about my German granny's peasant genes that got her to 99? Dr Mort seemed keen to finish the conversation. Obviously there isn't much to say to a woman with the Finger of Death pointing right at her.
Prime of life: A proud Lindy poses with her sons Robbie and Owen in 1992
The first few days after the diagnosis passed in a blur of numb disbelief. I couldn't be ill – I felt fine. Hours of total despair were intermittently broken up by strange times of normality. Tragic heroines did not go to Morrisons, or hang their washing out. They looked pale and thin. I, on the other hand, was still obese, according to my son's electronic scales, with a large red nose made sore by all the weeping and loud snorting into tissues for hours at a time. No one could comfort me, but my family tried their hardest.
'I want a dog,' I slurred one evening, between sobs. 'Let's get one then,' Gareth said.
I imagined myself with a dog so loyal and devoted he would howl inconsolably at my grave for years after my demise. But then I worried: could I walk him if I were wheelchair-bound?
'Look, you're fine at the moment, a dog will give you exercise,' said Gareth. 'You could have one of those little scooter things.'
'A fatmobile?'
Our two rescue cats were joined by Scrappy the Rescue Dog, a mongrel from Battersea Dogs Home. His fishy breath and wagging tail has kept me going during the past two years.
In October 2011, 13 months after my diagnosis, I enrolled on a memoir-writing course. I wanted to write about having MND, but knew I didn't want it to be a 'misery memoir', a term coined to describe biographies concerned with triumph over adversity, or anything remotely intellectual.
If I don't speak out loud, it is possible for me to forget, for a few moments at least, that I am ill – as in incurably/fatally/terminally ill. The voice in my head is perfect. Maybe not perfect in the way you might interpret that word, but perfect as in the way it used to be, before the neurons started to die off.
Initially, I refused to attend support groups on the grounds that I did not want to sit in a room with loads of people in wheelchairs. This makes me sound awful. But it's true.
My only symptom was slightly slurred speech. I had no intention of being reminded of what the future might hold.
However, loneliness and despair changed my mind. On a November morning in 2011, I arrived at the North London Branch meeting where I met Helen, a petite blonde. Like me, she has MND that has affected her speech.
We exchanged email addresses and met regularly for coffee. So here we are, on a cold December afternoon at Costa Coffee in Southgate.
'The thing I hate most, though, is the drooling, don't you?' I say.
My coat already has brown blobs of drying froth sprinkled on the collar.
She nods, reminding me of the story she told me about the time she was leading a conference, lost control of her lips and spurted coffee over her papers, weeks before she finally admitted that she could no longer cope with working.
We both start giggling in our awkward, noisy 'motor neurone' way and a man looks over from behind his laptop. 'I read an article in the paper this week about lifespans. Apparently butterflies live for only a few weeks,' I tell her.
'Really? Poor things.'
'So basically, they have to make the most of each moment. That's what I try to do now.'
Helen nods knowingly.
I feel so earnest and stoic for about two seconds before I feel embarrassed, cringing inwardly.
Helen says: 'Hey, while we're still butterflies, we'd better make the best of our gorgeousness, I mean before we . . .'
There is a future we can't put words to. Can't even bear to contemplate, but before I can make a silly remark about turning into a caterpillar, Helen has a bad coughing fit.
After the course ended at Christmas, I carried on and the group kept me going with their words and emails of encouragement. They read my work, sent me feedback and came to visit me at home.
That autumn, other physical problems were beginning to manifest. My tongue was weak, shrivelled and smaller.
As the neurones died, the muscle was shrinking through lack of use. It couldn't push the food around. The muscle in my bottom lip was so feeble that food and drink simply poured back out and over my chin, and the muscles controlling my swallowing weren't very strong. I had to eat wrapped up in old pillow cases, or tea towels, like some ridiculous mummy, because the food spilled all over the place.
By February 2012, it was time for a PEG, or percutanous endoscopic gastrostomy. A camera on a tube would be threaded down my throat and into my stomach. Like a worm, the tube emerges through a small incision in my stomach, where it rests gently under a cover until it's time to plug it into a feeding pump – a machine designed to deliver liquid to those who cannot feed themselves.
It's something I never, ever in my old life imagined happening. But suddenly there it was on my Scary Future List, along with breathing masks, wheelchairs and toilets that clean your bottom.
I wanted to apologise to my body. I was always complaining about my fat stomach. How I wish that instead of eating cottage cheese or Ryvitas, I had allowed myself big sandwiches and cake.
I worked for as long as I could. But by January last year, my speech had deteriorated further and I didn't feel I could cope with schools any more.
It occurs to me, typing my Visa card details into an order form, that my card is going to outlive me. Expiry date: May 2015. But it's still impossible to think of – really imagine – myself vanishing. A month later I took Scrappy for a walk. I'd hurriedly shoved some medication down and as I tramped my way through the damp leaves, I realised that a pill was wedged halfway down my throat. I attempted to cough it up, spluttering and spitting for ages beneath the trees. Meanwhile, oblivious, Scrappy was leaping around my legs for his red ball that I was flinging out between gasps. My last minutes on Earth might be spent face-down under the trees, sucking in dead leaves, covered in dog poo while Scrappy danced around me, nudging me with his cheerful wet nose.
But then the plastic-coated pill began melting, and foul liquid started to burn into the back of my throat. I took a slower, more successful breath. And again. Perhaps I wasn't going to die slumped over a blue VW Beetle.
Now, the house is littered with bottles of liquid food supplements and machines that keep me alive, including six boxes of Ensure Plus drinks – concentrated calories and protein to help patients maintain weight – to syringe into my feeding tube. Yum.
There is a box of syringes to pump the Ensure into myself (works with vodka too, I discovered) and a Hannibal Breathing Mask (medical term: non-invasive breathing ventilator). And the air is thick with my anger. Now totally unable to talk, I have to rely on my right hand to type everything onto my iPad. The effort means that my temper tantrums become more frequent.
Last May a doctor told me I'm unlikely to have much more than another year. A year is nothing. But it's better than days or weeks.
I have fought so hard during the past 22 months, trying to cram as much as possible into each day. I have joined two writing groups and continued to teach via email.
I have had a full life. I have cared for my sons, helped students, read so many novels and been on holidays, to the theatre, concerts, films and book club.
Downstairs, Gareth asks me if that brown gunk at the top of the stairs was actually cat poo. Yesh, I tell him, as Robbie informs us again about how badly the leather sofa has started to stink of cat wee. Meanwhile, Scrappy runs around us all carrying his rabbit while Squeaky appears, yowling for food.
We can't help laughing. In the midst of life we are in death, likewise, in the midst of tragedy we find ourselves in the middle of comic moments in our ordinary little lives. 'Night, Beaky,' says Robbie, using his nickname for me. 'Night, Mum,' says Owen. My two precious boys, how hard it is to leave you.

Does anyone use baby probiotic drops ? If so what kind do you use and what were the results?

I use Flora Baby powder. I started using it b/c LO had a bad case of thrush on his tongue. After Nystatin & Genetian Violet didn't help I bought the powder and on day 4 of using it I was able to literally wipe off the white thrush stuff off his tongue.

Biogaia drops. Expensive, but worth it. Baby appeared to have stomach pain and gas, but the day we started the drops, she was much better.

I use biogaia drops for my LO. She had reflux and gas problems. A couple of days after using it, the drops had helped her tremendously. Worth the 30 dollars we spent on it. :)
Posted 04/08/2013
BioGaia. Saw results the same day we started them. We ran out and don't have the money for more yet :(
Seriously, she's been super fussy again ever since. The one we got, we didn't have to refrigerate. The bottle said to store at 77°.

Although recent days of warm weather have given Kansans a taste of spring, winter is not over and the public is reminded to keep themselves prepared for winter storms.

via Virginia cabbie on FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list detained in Somalia – The Washington Post.
A Northern Virginia man who fled the United States more than two years ago and was recently placed on the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list is in the custody of the Somali government, U.S. officials said.
Liban Haji Mohamed, 29, was detained shortly after prosecutors unsealed a warrant for his arrest and the FBI added him to the wanted list in late January. It is unclear how he was taken into custody or how soon he could be brought back to the United States.
The former cabdriver is charged with providing material support and resources to al-Shabab, a U.S.-designated terrorist organization allied with al-Qaeda. He is suspected of having an operational role in al-Shabab and of trying to recruit people to join the group.
When FBI officials announced his inclusion on the most-wanted list, they said Mohamed was "an asset to his terrorist associates who might plot attacks on U.S. soil." Officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation, noted that he had detailed knowledge of potential targets in Washington.
Officials said efforts were being made to bring Mohamed back to Virginia, though there are significant logistical and diplomatic challenges. The United States does not have an extradition treaty with Somalia.
U.S. law enforcement had been attempting to track Mohamed, a naturalized U.S. citizen, before he slipped out of the country and into Mexico on July 12, 2012. The case had frustrated FBI agents who strongly believed Mohamed should have been charged with material support of terrorism while he was living in Fairfax County.
Some federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia were willing to do so, though they were overruled by others at the Justice Department, officials said.
In other words, Eric Holder overruled. He has turned the Justice Dept. into an enemy of the American people but the best friend any real terrorist could have.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Los Angeles Hop-on Hop-off Double Decker Bus Tour. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.

Excellent, very nice group of people
This tour was amazing!
This was a great way to get around and see the most of the city. We only had one day in LA so sat on the buses and managed to do most of the tours. We still had time to get off in a few places though. A great tour and the best way to see LA.
Highly recommend doing to get around LA and the area. Get value.
Very convenient for travel and follow the story around Los Angeles. you can go down in every stop they make and you can wait for another bus to continue your tour.
Hop On Hop off bus tour is the only way to really see and enjoy Hollywood and surrounding attractions. The drivers have their passengers best interest and safety. They are courteous and helpful with regards to directions and general questions. The audio of the sights in your preferred language is great. My only suggestion would to have Buses that depart from Red Route Stop 1....go directly to Venice Beach or directly to Santa Monica...otherwise it makes for a very long day jumping on/off buses just to get to an attraction. The price is very, very reasonable! Loved it. Can't wait to return and do it all over again.
I had so much fun' and great time thank you so much,
This tour was amazing!
Very good way yo get around LA , me and my kids had a great time.? Would definitely recommend iy
This tour was amazing!
Manuel V
Will do it again. Very informative. Worth it.
My wife and I traveled to USA for the first time this year. We planned to drive most of the trip until we stumbled upon the "Hop on hop off" bus tours. Recommend this tour to everyone. As we traveled around on the bus, we took notes of places we would like to come back to. The staff were super friendly and had lovely personalities.
Made getting around LA and seeing the sights really easy. Audio commentary was fantastic and gave really interesting information.
Great way to get around and see all the major attractions
Best way to get around LA. Good informative commentary and value for money.

Dunsborough is a 2.5hr drive from Perth.
Click here to see driving direction, bus services & airlines that service the area.
We will do our best to organise ride-sharing from Perth with other retreat participants, so be sure to let us know if you are interested and we will connect you with others that have indicated their interest. We currently are not able to pick up guests from the airport.
We teach mostly Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga on our retreats, in the tradition of Sri K. Pattahbi Jois. The afternoon sessions will also include restorative or yin yoga postures. We begin Ashtanga yoga by learning the primary series. This series is designed in a progressive sequence to allow the body to open and find the strength and flexibility in each posture so that it is ready for the next one. Remember it has taken many years to get your body to the condition it is now, so it may take a while to open and undo many years of tightening. Learning patience, self-acceptance and compassion, is a huge component of the practice. The slower the better! We want to be able to practice for the rest of our lives, and once you learn the practice it is yours forever to take anywhere you go, so there is no rush!
We welcome people of all levels of yoga, from beginners to advanced. We have designed the courses for all participants to get maximum enjoyment out of the retreat.
We cater for all levels and all ages. If you are a veteran or a beginner we will guide you through the journey you are on. Special tips and modifications will be provided to beginners, so you will not be left behind! You will return home having learnt more about yourself and what you are able to achieve.
The beauty of the Yoga practice is that there are so many layers. We will endeavor to work with you to help you refine and deepen your existing practice. We are all dedicated yoga practitioners and students ourselves, and we love to share the wisdom, insights and stories that we have gained through our own practice and studies throughout the world.
Yes, this is not a problem. We contact all guests prior to the retreat starting to find out emergency contact details and special food requirements and allergies.
It is wonderful to take time out of your life on your own, and we highly encourage it! We have lots of people that attend for various reasons with many coming on their own. The retreat is a perfect opportunity to have a break from your normal routine, to meet new people and to be inspired by and advance your yoga and healthy eating path.
"Having never done yoga before this retreat was full of very knowledgable and informative staff who took my concerns and emotions into consideration. The teacher catered the poses to suit me, very much appreciated."
"An amazing weekend away! It gave me clarity and direction"
"I enjoyed the retreat immensely and feel I got so much of it both physically and mentally. Ive learnt so much more than I though I would, I can't wait to come back!"
"Loved the overall experience of the Women's Retreat. We have learnt a lot about ourselves and better lifestyle choices. We also had a lovely group of ladies attending"
"The women's Yoga and Wellness Retreat was a much needed weekend of relaxation that taught me so much about where I'm at and where I'm heading on my spiritual journey, as well as health...both physical and emotional"
"The food at Samudra was to die for. I was sceptical about eating this kind of food but was left full and satisfied after every meal! The spirulina balls are SO delicious. The cooking class was a standout event for me, even better that we got to eat it after! Thanks, cant wait to come back!"
What are visitors saying?
Between it and the natural buzz you get from yoga and/or surfing, you'll be bursting with enthusiasm to embrace the Samudra way of life.

Naming Committee
Naming Announcements
Edmonton's First Female Bus Driver Honoured
Edmonton's first female bus driver, Kathleen Andrews, has been honoured. "Kathleen Andrews Garage", a City of Edmonton transit garage, will be located on Fort Road, north of Yellowhead Trail. Andrews Loop, Gate, and Way are three roads in the Ambleside Neighbourhood that have also been named in her honour.
Light Horse Park
The South Alberta Light Horse (SALH) is a pan-Albertan regiment, with squadrons in Medicine Hat and Edmonton. The B Squadron SALH is located in the Brigadier James Curry Jefferson Armoury in Edmonton with the Loyal Edmonton Regiment. The SALH is an armoured reconnaissance regiment and part of the Canadian Army Primary Reserve. The SALH has existed historically in various forms since the Northwest Rebellion of 1885. With the advent of the Land Force Reserve restructuring project, the South Alberta Light Horse returned to its reconnaissance roots in 2004.
The naming of Light Horse Park will honour the current day South Light Horse, and all that have and continue to serve in that unit.
Read more about Light Horse here.
Alexander Decoteau Honoured
Decoteau Trail was approved in 1971 to honour Alexander (Alex) Decoteau, an Olympic athlete and Canada's first Aboriginal police officer. Though this trail has honoured his name for years, and more recently, Decoteau Way in the Griesbach neighbourhood was named to pay tribute to his service with the Canadian Army, many believed that this devoted Edmontonian was deserving of something more. The story of Alex Decoteau's incredible life needed to be celebrated.
The Naming Committee received an overwhelming amount of support to honour Alex Decoteau's contributions to Canadian heritage, including letters written by grade 5/6 students at Patricia Heights School after a recent visit to Fort Edmonton Park, where the class learned of Alex Decoteau's many accomplishments. Further support was obtained from Alex Decoteau's grand niece.
"Students from Patricia Heights approached us after learning about Alex Decoteau, wanting us to find a way to honour his legacy. The downtown community and Edmonton Police Services got behind the idea, and we are excited to be honouring him through this park."
- Jeff Nachtigall, Naming Committee Chair
"Edmonton has a rich aboriginal history and it is fitting that a park in the heart of our city is named for Alex Decoteau, who was a remarkable Edmontonian. Parks bring a sense of community as a place to gather and relax. As an important space, it deserves a notable name and I applaud those who helped make this happen."
- Mayor Don Iveson
In recognition of this admirable man and the much deserved support to honour his name, the Naming Committee has approved:
Alex Decoteau Park
Alex Decoteau Park is located at 10204 - 105 Street NW in the heart of Edmonton's Downtown neighbourhood. As sergeant of the West End Police Office in 1914, he protected the streets of what is currently known as the Warehouse District (105 Street NW to 109 Street NW) in the Downtown neighbourhood. There is a plan in place to commemorate the life of Alex Decoteau in this public park space.
Edmonton Artist Honoured
Hemophilia Advocate Honoured
Neighbourhood Naming Complete for Big Lake and Meadows
The neighbourhood names of Kinglet Gardens and Pintail Landing now complete the Big Lake ASP. Big Lake contains a naming theme of "Native Bird Species of the Big Lake Natural Area".
The final neighbourhood within the Meadows ASP has been named Aster. The theme for this ASP is "Trees, Flowers, and Plants Native to Alberta".
Pioneer Bush Pilot Honoured
For more naming approvals, please visit our approvals page.
Naming Committee Process
The Naming Committee approves names for municipal facilities, new neighbourhoods, parks and roads. This involves input from both City administration and citizens. The Naming Committee has seven members appointed by City Council; including six citizens at large, and one representative from the Edmonton Historical Board.
The Current Planning Branch, part of the Sustainable Development Department, provides administrative services to the Naming Committee in the form of:
- Researching names
- Maintaining an inventory of names to be used in the future
- Receiving requests from the public for names to be honoured
- Creating and providing agendas to the Committee
Typically, the Naming Committee meets every third Tuesday of the month, depending on volume of applications.
This is the Process for naming neighbourhoods, roads, parks and other municipal facilities.
This is the City Policy C509A for naming neighbourhoods, roads, parks and other municipal facilities.
Please use the Application Form to recommend a name for neighbourhoods, roads, parks and other municipal facilities.

Review | Dates to Watch For | Follow-Up | U.S. Economic Calendar | Consensus Estimates | Coming Earnings | Coming U.S. Auctions
Extensions on federal unemployment benefits for "99 weekers," those out of work for 99 weeks or more, expire this month. Critics say the move could raise the odds the economy will tumble into recession next year, and the weak May jobs report only adds to concerns.
But the policy shift won't have much of an effect on payroll employment data, says Jesse Rothstein, a former chief economist for the U.S. Department of Labor who teaches at UC Berkeley. If anything, he adds, the loss of benefits would reduce consumption by credit-constrained people, reduce aggregate demand and result in additional layoffs.
Ouch! The coming expiration of long-term jobless benefits could increase the chances of a U.S. recession next year. William Waitzman for Barron's
Congress curtailed jobless benefits in the hope of nudging idled workers to seek jobs. Stanford economics researcher Camille Landais, citing evidence from Germany, Austria and the U.S., maintains that a 10% increase in the duration of such benefits increases the length of unemployment about 2%. Landais says that the focus should be not on the duration of benefits, but on what's behind the long-term unemployment trend. Census Bureau figures show that the majority of the jobless have no liquid assets. One fear: Such people might seek disability benefits and permanently drop out of the labor force. Congress's action won't necessarily affect the widely followed reports on unemployment from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, whose data reflect unemployment duration and not the receiving of benefits.
Johannes Schmieder, who teaches economics at Boston University, would leave the unemployment benefit extension at 99 weeks, and instead monitor more closely whether people are actively looking for jobs. "Right now, in many states, the only way unemployed people are monitored is by automated phone calls," he says. "You may get a phone call, and a computer asks you: 'Are you looking for a job? Press one if yes, press two if no.' If one, they still get unemployment insurance benefits."

Now in their infinite wisdom they announced construction starting this month on Eola Road and to expect delays.
There are already delays on eola from the Route 59 traffic!
They must have a better plan.
