Is there a way to get rid of Acne?
Hear, hear! We've pretty much figured out how to dissolve fat, prevent wrinkles, shoot people into space (and even bring them back); how hard can it be to get rid of acne? Actually, harder than you'd think, because acne results from a complicated process involving a plugged pore, oil, bacteria and inflammation, and it's also influenced by genetics and hormones, says Katie Rodan, MD, clinical associate professor emeritus of dermatology at Stanford University School of Medicine. A shot of cortisone directly into a pimple reduces inflammation in a day or two, and the oral prescription medicine isotretinoin can give long-lasting results with cystic or severe acne. The best way to prevent acne is by using a combination of ingredients that address each step in the breakout process, including salicylic acid to disrupt the plug, benzoyl peroxide for protection from bacteria and sulfur for its anti-inflammatory effect. This is a great skin care regimen that includes all of the ingredients listed above: Acne Treatment
Breakouts? Unpredictable? Unreasonable? Unfair? Take control of your acne! Check out this regimen, clinically proven to combat the entire acne cycle! This sophisticated regimen helps unclog pores, clears acne blemishes and calms your complexion to keep pimples, blackheads and post-acne marks from making an unwelcome appearance on your face—and in your life.
Take control of your acne! You don't have to live with breakouts!

In the months leading up to the invasion of
The Times has owned up to — and, we pray, learned from — the things we got wrong. But this is a good time to look a little harder at the journalists who got it right. How did they come up with the evidence to refute the version embraced by the president, by most officials in both parties and by a lot of the mainstream media?
They got it from government officials with access to classified information, who risked their jobs to confide the truth to journalists. Critics call these "leaks," although such stories hardly ever spill out unbidden; they are painstakingly assembled by teasing out bits of information, triangulating, correcting, testing, confirming. I'd call them a public service.
Washington is currently going a little nuts on the subject of leaks. The Obama administration, which has, without really setting out to do so, already surpassed all previous administrations in its prosecution of leakers, has begun new investigations into disclosures by The Times,
But that has not quieted the hysteria. Republicans are accusing the
Is this latest outbreak of leak panic just another mood swing? Or is something else going on?
There is a plausible case that more secrets are spilling these days. In part that is because so much material is automatically, needlessly classified that officials tend not to take classification as seriously. I suspect another factor is the enthusiasm with which senior officials contribute their notes and self-serving recollections for behind-the-scenes books, setting a permissive example for those farther down the official ladder. (The top officials thus assure their place in history; it's the juniors who get prosecuted.)
Some of the current wailing is just politics as usual, or what has become usual in the pit bull arena of the modern campaign.
Romney certainly knows something about keeping secrets; there have been no leaks so far of his
But his indignation, if it is not feigned, is a little naïve. One of the more insightful watchers of Washington culture had this to say on how things work in the world of information-as-power:
"Presidents make 'secret' decisions only to reveal them for the purposes of frightening an adversary nation, wooing a friendly electorate, protecting their reputations. The military services conduct 'secret' research in weaponry only to reveal it for the purpose of enhancing their budgets, appearing superior or inferior to a foreign army, gaining the vote of a congressman or the favor of a contractor. The Navy uses secret information to run down the weaponry of the Air Force. The Army passes on secret information to prove its superiority to the Marine Corps. High officials of the government reveal secrets in the search for support of their policies, or to help sabotage the plans and policies of rival departments. Middle-rank officials of government reveal secrets so as to attract the attention of their superiors or to lobby against the orders of those superiors."
That was
I'm prepared to believe that unauthorized disclosure to the press of classified information has occasionally had dire consequences, though clear-cut examples of that are scarce. More often, what "leaks" have done is inform Americans about what is being done in their name — the good (successful targeting of militants, cyberdisruption of
Some of the instances that seem at first glance to be irresponsible breaches of security turn out, on closer study, to be something else. Recently, The Times, along with several other news organizations, disclosed that the
Over the decades, rival interests — the government's legitimate responsibility to keep some things secret, the press's constitutional freedom to ferret out information and report it — have coexisted through informal understandings. The government worked to protect secrets at the source but generally accepted that it had little recourse once they had escaped. Violators were reprimanded, but hardly ever charged under the Espionage Act. Reporters and editors were sometimes persuaded to withhold information if they were convinced it could put lives at risk.
Alexander Bickel, who was the chief counsel for The Times in the Pentagon Papers case, wrote that this accommodation "works well only when there is forbearance and continence on both sides. It threatens to break down when the adversaries turn into enemies, when they break diplomatic relations with each other, gird for and wage war. Such conditions threaten graver breakdowns yet, eroding the popular trust and confidence in both government and the press on which effective exercise of the function of both depends."
Bickel's argument, in a seminal book of legal philosophy called "The Morality of Consent," assumes a respectful — if adversarial — relationship between, on one side, an establishment press and, on the other, a government that accepts the value of compromise in the conduct of public affairs. It's arguable whether we have either of those today.
The notion of an establishment press is, to say the least, under siege. News comes from a dizzying number of directions. We know from the
So far, though, the secrets that set Washington on edge still tend to come from reporters who have spent years developing relationships with sources, mainstream reporters like Landay and Strobel, or like David Sanger of The Times and Daniel Klaidman of Newsweek, who are prominent among the current targets of the leak police. They operate without security clearances or subpoena powers. They work, rather, with sources who may be scared, who probably know only part of the story, who may have their own agendas that need to be discovered and taken into account. Reporting secret information with confidence usually entails a multitude of sources, ideally backed by documentary evidence.
So, while the mainstream press might not enjoy the hegemony it held before the Internet, most of what the country knows about the secret activities of its government it knows thanks to news organizations that still take their responsibilities seriously: reporters who check to make sure that the double agent is safe before they publish the story. (WikiLeaks, which has built a reputation on one tremendous leak, is still the exception that proves the rule.)
Unfortunately, these are not days of — in Bickel's phrase — "forbearance and continence." We live in a time of zero-sum politics, where trust is scarce and compromise is perilous, and where the hamster-wheel news cycle puts no special value on reflection.
In a saner Washington, a reasonable effort to control truly harmful leaks might be balanced by an equally serious effort to roll back excessive classification, so that we could have a more informed debate about drones and

It's been a banner year for North Korea. The government in Pyongyang has already conducted 17 missile tests and two nuclear tests, including the most recent nuclear explosion on Friday. And there are still three and a half months left in 2016.
Satellite photos of North Korea's nuclear test site indicate that at least three more tests are possible at a moment's notice. Since North Koreans often celebrate important dates with spectacular shows, the approaching 10th anniversary of its first nuclear detonation on Oct. 9 might be the perfect occasion.
Even more alarming is that at this rate, Pyongyang may be able to deploy more powerful nuclear weapons and more dangerous delivery systems more quickly than previously expected. Last year, researchers at the institute where I work concluded that by 2020 North Korea could field an intercontinental ballistic missile able to reach the United States. But if Pyongyang tests the missile that has appeared in recent military parades, it could be sooner. The simple hydrogen bomb the North Koreans were expected to have by 2020 now may be ready and mounted on a missile earlier.
All of this bad news should, just in time for a new presidential administration, put to rest the misconceptions that have driven the United States' failed North Korea policy, especially the idea that China, Pyongyang's closest ally, will solve the problem.
Beijing would certainly prefer that Kim Jong-un give up his nuclear weapons. And the Chinese do occasionally use their economic ties with North Korea to pressure Pyongyang. But China's overriding priority will continue to be keeping North Korea as a stable buffer against American influence in South Korea. No amount of cajoling from Washington will cause China to squeeze North Korea with enough sanctions that it will give up its weapons or risk the government's collapse.
The next administration must recognize that the United States, not China, is the indispensable nation when it comes to dealing with North Korea. Our allies, who look to us to provide leadership, already know this. So do the Chinese, who insist that only Washington can persuade the North Koreans to stop their bad behavior. North Korean officials have even told me in private that it is true for them, too.
If a new administration understands that the United States must take the lead, it can use the substantial diplomatic, military and economic power at its disposal to manage and potentially resolve this challenge. At the core will be a willingness to take all necessary steps to protect our allies, even measures that can anger China, like the recent decision to deploy advanced missile defenses in South Korea. A new administration should also seek to tighten sanctions, just as the Obama administration is doing, recognizing that, because of China's enduring support for the government in Pyongyang, sanctions will always fall far short of pressuring North Korea the same way they did Iran.
A successful strategy will have to include a new diplomatic initiative aimed at persuading the North to first stop expanding its arsenal and then to eventually reduce and dismantle its weapons. To persuade the North Koreans to do this, Washington will have to address their security concerns. In the short term, that may mean temporarily suspending or modifying some American-South Korean military exercises. In the longer term, it may mean replacing the armistice in place since the end of the Korean War with a permanent peace agreement.
These initiatives will be met with skepticism not only in the United States — where many people believe that negotiating with North Korea is a waste of time — but also in Pyongyang. As a North Korean official, who believes a new administration will just tear up previous agreements, said to me earlier this year, "It's easier for us to build nuclear weapons than to be involved with you for decades only to have agreements turn into useless scraps of paper."
Nevertheless, there are signs that North Korea is interested in dialogue. On July 6, the government issued a pronouncement ostensibly seeking denuclearization talks with the United States, specifically mentioning Kim Jong-un's name in support of this initiative.
One reason North Korea may be motivated to consider denuclearization is economic. Since taking office in 2011, Mr. Kim has been committed to improving his country's economy. He seems to believe that nuclear weapons would allow even more focus on that objective. Nevertheless, he has deliberately left room to ease off the nuclear track and explore a dialogue, perhaps reflecting an understanding that there are limits to what his country's economy can achieve while it is isolated from the international community. Of course, no one is naïve enough to take these statements at face value. Talks between governments are the only way to know for sure.
As the Obama administration winds down, little can be done to change policy at this point. Moreover, the North Koreans are unlikely to be responsive to new initiatives since they know that the next American administration will have its own approach. The first hundred days in office will be critical for the next American president. If a window is open to curb North Korea's nuclear ambitions, it may not stay open for long.

A mini series titled, The Promise, by Peter Kosminsky, aired on Channel 4 back in February this year. I didn't hear or notice that much about it at the time but a Palestinian friend of mine mentioned that he liked it, I was asked on a blog whether I would condemn its anti-Israel bias (because I had mentioned a general mainstream media bias in favour of Israel) and I have seen some real anger expressed about it on pro-Israel blogs. Eventually, over about two weeks, I watched the four parter on Channel 4 oD.
The story jumps forward and back through the main characters, a Palestine based British soldier called Len and his granddaughter, Erin, who uses his diary of his time in Palestine to explore the story surrounding the establishment of the State of Israel and to fulfill her grandfather's promise to a Palestinian chap he had befriended back then.
Well, it seems to be very well made. It's certainly up there with Dallas and Friends. The plot reminded me a bit of Zelig or Forrest Gump. It relies heavily, almost entirely, on the most amazing coincidences.
The story begins with Erin considering going to Israel with her friend, a young Anglo-Israeli woman together with old Len suffering some hospitalising condition. It jumps back to Len being involved in and diarising the liberation of Bergen-Belsen. Current TV drama is interwoven skilfully with old newsreel much like Zelig, in fairness, without the humour. Au contraire, the footage of the dead in Belsen is chilling and provides the backdrop for Len writing of why Britain had gone to war. Then it jumps forward to Erin in Israel with her friend and the friend's parents who are clearly very wealthy.
Anyway, the plot takes Len from Belsen to Palestine. If I hadn't seen the protests from zionist quarters and not knowing anything of Kosminsky's sympathies, I would have assumed the jump from Belsen to Palestine to be part of yet another zionist propaganda show. Can't they satisfying themselves with news and documentary? Well, it wasn't like that. Poor old Len was very conflicted about the whole thing.
He had a liberal non-Sabra Jewish girlfriend. She turned out to be an Irgunist. His unit also had an Arab chai wallah who Len befriends.
The coincidences come in thick and fast as Len gets caught up in everything everyone who follows Palestine knows about. He is at the King David Hotel when it gets blown up. He gets captured with the two British soldiers hanged by the Irgun. He is at Deir Yassin when the Irgun (and the unmentioned rest) slaughter most of the villagers. His, by then, ex-girlfriend is among the slaughterers. She still loves Len. Not sure if it's mutual.
Erin too gets caught up in a few things that those of us who follow what goes on know about. She's there when settler kids attack schoolgirls in Hebron. She remonstrates with Israeli soldiers for not intervening. She meets a Palestinian woman whose family protected Jews during the 1929 Hebron massacre. She even manages a Rachel Corrie moment when an Israeli bulldozer comes to flatten the home of a suicide bomber's family in Gaza.
I can't really apologise for spoiling the plot because the past historical (if unfinished) side is so well known. The story doesn't have that much in the way of nuance or intricacy. It's actually a bit in yer face but it is very well made as far as I can tell. And it is good that someone troubled to dramatise some real historical and current issues in Palestine for a mass audience. I read somewhere that all the portrayals of Jews are negative. That's not true. Zionism is put under a spotlight (not a microscope) but zionism isn't the Jews and remember the programme practically starts in Bergen-Belsen. All in all it's an entertaining tale but I can well see why Israel advocates are chalking this down as one of their failures.
So if you have some spare moments you might want to read this Guardian preview. Or if you have a few hours you can watch the programme.

New Yahoo Mail....Who Cares!!
Yahoo announced today that they are offering two new domain names, ymail and rocketmail. Currently they have 266 million users, followed by Microsoft at 264 million, and Gmail at ~100 million, but Gmail is growing at a faster rate. I didn't know until I read the Tech Observer blog that rocketmail was the first free email, I guess its kind of cool that they are reviving it. Anyways, I find Gmail much more user friendly and advanced compared to yahoo mail (which doesn't allow forwarding of emails to addresses outside of hotmail or live) and hotmail. I really don't think that this move will make much difference to yahoo's current state, there is just no attraction to them nowadays, maybe its the name or logo or the power of Google.

Quite the first day for a first-timer at ISC West, and for a first-timer to Vegas to boot. Now I can understand what all the fuss was about leading up to the show.
— I got the lowdown from ASSA ABLOY on what it's doing to fill the "medium security" gap for access control, or components targeting the void between $200 and $4,000. The company sees a growth market there and is moving to take advantage.
— Bill Hobgood, project director for the Department of Information Technology, Public Safety Team, for the city of Richmond, Va., gave a firsthand account of what ASAP can do for speeding the flow of information between central stations and PSAPs. If you're still holding on to the phone as the future, Richmond's experience will change your mind.
— Chris Holbert, CEO of SecuraTrac, told me how the company's new app, SecuraFone, disables social media sites when in motion—hello, distracted teens—along with immobilizing email and texting. Other features include physical tracking and more importantly, emergency response for seniors. SecuraTrac is teaming with Mace CS to expand along this avenue in the future.
— Bosch acknowledged the hectic pace of the day with a 5 p.m. session that featured a truck giveaway and happy hour refreshments, which turned out to be a real crowd-pleaser. A great way to end a long day on the floor.
My day isn't done yet—I'm about the step out the door to attend a UCC cocktail party—and Day Two and Day Three await, so I'll sign off for now. Much more ahead, hopefully with a decent night's sleep to take it all in. The young and lively door-bangers in the room next door may have something to say about that, though. This is Vegas, after all …
RESTON, Va.—ObjectVideo made progress in February with its licensing efforts. The video analytics provider announced that it has settled a lawsuit against Sony and signed licensing agreements with both Sony and Tyco's American Dynamics.
There was an update today in video analytics provider Object Video's patent licensing efforts. OV announced today that it has signed a global patent licensing agreement with Tyco Security Products' American Dynamics business division.
You'll recall that at ISC West last year, OV announced in April that it was suing Sony, Samsung and Bosch for alleged patent infringement
And, in June, it filed a complaint with the against the same companies with the International Trade Commission. That complaint seeks to bar Bosch, Samsung and Sony from importing and selling products containing software features and functions that allegedly infringe on OV's patents.
OV CEO Raul Fernandez told me today that he can't speak about the lawsuit, but he said the agreement with American Dynamics is the first of what he expects to be several similar agreements.
He said after the lawsuit and ITC complaints were filed, OV received "a series of inbound calls from [manufacturers] who wanted to understand the our licensing program." He said there are "several negotiations ongoing [with manufacturers, but they're not litigation-based negotiations" rather they're manufacturers who have approached OV because "they've looked inward at their technology to see if there is a technology overlap with some of our patents." This is OV's preferred way to "approach licensing discussions but we are prepared to take another [legal] path if necessary."
Fernandez said that the fact that Tyco is a "multi billion dollar, multi-national, multi-product line company that's been in business a long time recognizes our innovations .. strengthens our case [for pursuing patent licensing] … it's terrific for us."
"Our American Dynamics business is developing a broad range of video analytics-enabled products," said Warren Brown vice president of product management for Tyco Security Products. "As part of our pre-launch process, it was important to ensure that the growth we expect from these products would not be negatively affected by legal issues," continued Mr. Brown. "This agreement with ObjectVideo gives us that certainty, allowing us to focus on the more important tasks of building great products that delight our customers."
Asked how business is going, Fernandez said OV, which is privately held, had a good year with growth in its core software business and growth and backlog in its services side.
RESTON, Va.—ObjectVideo, which in April filed a lawsuit against Sony, Samsung and Bosch for alleged patent infringement on some of its analytics, on June 29 filed a complaint against the same companies with the International Trade Commission.
RESTON, Va.—The news, announced last week, that video analytics maker ObjectVideo is suing Sony, Samsung and Bosch for alleged patent infringement on some of OV's analytics took the industry by surprise, and had many asking the question: "Why now?"
FAIRPORT, N.Y.—Bosch Security Systems, Inc. on Dec. 27 announced the appointment of six new sales managers for the South and Northeast regions of the United States. Each sales representative is responsible for working with Bosch dealers and integrators in their designated areas to help them win, support and maintain top quality security installations.

The 2017 International Workers' Day was commemorated on Monday, 1st of May 2017, and declared a public holiday by the Federal government to allow Nigerian workers join their counterparts from all over the world to celebrate the International Workers' Day also known as Labour Day.
Amidst events to commemorate the day, the leading trade union organizations in the country - the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) – have heightened their call for the Nigerian government to address issues pertaining to the wages and welfare of Nigerian workers.
Last year, NLC and TUC had submitted a proposal of N56,000 and N90,000 to the Federal Government as new minimum wage and admonished the government to urgently set up a committee to discuss the proposed new minimum wage, but this is yet to be officially bargained, to arrive at a consensus.
Recent figures from NBS put unemployment rates at 13.9 percent, representing a rise in the level of unemployment from Q4 2015 (6.4 percent) to Q4 2016 (10.4 percent). With a population of about 190 million people, from which over 50 per cent are between the ages of 15 to 34 and about 47 per cent of this number is unemployed, experts say the rate of unemployment in Nigeria among this demographic group is dangerous. The National Population Commission also noted that there is a high rate of growth of youth unemployment because every year the universities send thousands of youths to the society in search of jobs.
Similarly, while unemployment has remained at the front burner in most policy discussions in Nigeria, Labour Unions have also argued that strengthening the country's manufacturing sector could serve as a panacea to resolving the unemployment crisis in the country. In a recent interview, a Labour leader urged the government to re-invest in all the moribund textile factories and steel rolling mills as a way of kick-starting the nation's economy back to life.
Despite the fact that various programmes have been set up to address the issue of unemployment in the country, only very few of these programmes have recorded maximal impact, compared to the number of youths who are still unemployed till date and sometimes such programmes are mere jamborees, which open a window to fraudulent enrichment of those recruited to implement the programme.
It therefore behooves on stakeholders concerned to bridge this huge gap by thinking out of the box to create some solutions youths in Nigeria can relate with, considering their cultures, peculiarities and their environmental upbringing.

Last month I visited the wonderful city of Oxford. It had been on my radar for some time and the reason for this is purely down to this hotel after spotting it on Instagram.
It's housed within the grounds of Oxford Castle and was once home to Oxford Prison. In fact keeping many of the features from it's day as a prison you could be forgiven for thinking that was still it's purpose and is the very reason I was keen to visit.
Walking onto the main wing I was blown away by the size of it. Picturing it full of inmates all those years ago and imagining what life must have been like for them.
It is definitely something to look into if you are planning a trip to Oxford and if not for a hotel stay then definitely for dinner. It was quite possibly one of the best meals I have ever had.
|Goats cheese and blood orange
|Pumpkin and chestnut ravioli
|Millionaire Valrhona chocolate mousse
So worth the visit to Oxford if only for this hotel alone. I loved it.

The Tale of the Herring
Newcastle University approached us to help develop a touring exhibition which would celebrate and draw interest to the fishing heritage of the eastern coast of England.
Celebrating the fishing heritage in five ports in eastern England, the 'The Tale of the Herring' project features a touring exhibition and work created by schools in 2011.
We created six striking exhibition banners, which give an overview of the fishing history in each port. The exhibition told the story of the herring and its impact on the local economies and lives. As the exhibition is touring the five ports, the banners are durable, lightweight and portable.
In order to encourage participation from the residents in each port, we created a website that allows more photos and stories to be uploaded and displayed. Comments are enabled on each item, encouraging conversations and the retelling of stories and memories.
The website gives a permanent online home to the exhibition, bringing the stories and memories to a new audience.

The preparations continue for the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival and CthulhuCon in Los Angeles this month. I have been interviewing a few of the artist vendors attending to share with you a sense of what continues to draw so many to the work of famed 20th century master of horror, H.P. Lovecraft. The festival convenes at the Warner Grand Theatre in San Pedro, CA from September 27-29th. Tickets are going fast!
Today, we're talking with Sean Branney of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society, who gives us a glimpse at the terrors and delights that came with trying to film some of the most notoriously difficult stories to bring to the silver screen, The Call of Cthulhu and Whisperer from the Darkness. Come meet them at the festival to learn more, and get your copies of some amazing short films and other .... things.... that defy description.
Tell us a little about yourself. How did you get started on all of this? What was one of the hardest things for you to learn?
Back in the early 80s, my weirdest friend, Darrell Tutchton (still an illustrator who does much of the HPLHS' artwork) handed me a copy of a book and said, "You have to read this story, it's really weird". He was right - it was HPL's "Rats in the Walls" and I read it and became hooked. Not longer after that, I started playing the role playing game, The Call of Cthulhu by Chaosium. I invited one of my theatre friends, Andrew Leman over to play and soon he was hooked. After a while we thought it would be even more fun to get some costumes and stage one of these mysteries out in the real world instead of around a table with papers and dice. Soon we were producing live action Lovecraftian role playing games regularly and the HPLHS was born.
Hardest to learn? I guess it's that if you want to do something really complicated, like, say, to produce a feature film, you really need to sit down in advance and figure out an exhaustive plan for how to implement it. We're good at improvising and making things up on the fly, but when you get to really big projects, a plan is really useful.
What's your favorite H.P. Lovecraft story?
If I could only pick one, I'd probably pick "The Call of Cthulhu." I love it's weird, multi-layered structure and globe-spanning scope. It's one of those that if you can imagine yourself as Thurston and having all of this slowly unfold before you - it would blow your mind. I've always had a soft spot for "The Rats in the Walls" as it was my first HPL story.
What's been your favorite creation so far? What was the most unexpected surprise you've found when making these creations?
I'm most proud of our feature film The Whisperer in Darkness. It's a very big movie made with really limited resources. I guess the best pleasant surprise was discovering there's a planet full of HPL fans who have proved very supportive of the weird stuff we make. When we made a silent movie, we didn't know if anyone would want to see one. When we made a 1930s-style radio play, we didn't know if people would be into that. Turns out, there's a lot of folks out there who enjoy the ways in which we've adapted Lovecraft's stories.
The HPLHS shooting The Whisperer in Darkness in Vermont (l to r: Matt Foyer, David Robertson, Sean Branney and a 1929 Rolls Royce).
Much of the Society's work requires intensive collaboration. What are some of your thoughts on learning to working together?
My colleague Andrew Leman and I have been working together for over 30 years now. Some days it's really easy and fun and some days collaborating is very demanding. I suppose the key thought in collaborating is the golden rule - you want to treat your collaborator the way in which you would want to be treated. When you hit a point of fundamental disagreement, you have to find a way to break the log jam and get the process moving again. I think it's important to respect anyone you're going to collaborate with. If you don't respect each other's ideas, collaboration is going to be difficult.
What's a project you really hope to take on in the next few years? Where do you hope to go from here?
We've got a few movie projects which we're interested in. Many of the projects we're kicking around require pretty substantial resources, so we need to solve funding (like so many other filmmakers). We've got a couple of smaller film projects we may turn to. We've also been having a great time with our Dark Adventure Radio Theatre series. We're about to release our 8th title and I think there's an excellent chance that more titles will be forthcoming in the series.
Where else can we find you throughout the year?
Our headquarters are in Glendale, California and we can always be found at www.cthulhulives.org. We also tend to turn up at Lovecraft events like the HP Lovecraft Film Festivals and we were recently at NecronomiCon in Providence RI.
What's your favorite music to listen to as you all create at the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society?
I spend a lot of time editing audio and doing sound design, so I don't tend to listen to anything other than the show I'm working on. If I do put music on, I generally tend to listen to classic/progressive rock.
You can visit the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society at http://www.cthulhulives.org. If you dare.

How Has Faith Haven Made A Difference In Your Life?
"Faith Haven has made a big difference in each member of our family. I love seeing the light in our boys eyes as they talk about Faith Haven, how the camp has helped each of us grow in our faith, and how we each found a way to serve and give back. Being at Faith Haven helps me to appreciate more of what God has given to us - the lake, trees, all of nature and the community it promotes. Thank you Faith Haven for sharing God's Word and His ways in such a powerful way!"
Lonna C., Alum
"Safe place to gather together for learning, fun, worship, and good food all with abundant fellowship. The men's retreats have been a delightful way to go deeper in my relationship with God as well as making friends."
Eldon W., Alum
"My name is Donovan. I don't remember how long I've been coming here, at least five years. I believe that I have found God here. Since my wife went to be with the Lord, some 3½ years ago, this camp has been a true blessing. Along with friends from church I would not be in a Christian loving family. I can't explain how wonderful Lisa and Scott have been in a welcoming manner. I'm not a good writer but this camp has been great...for my grandchildren also. God bless you."

A Guided Visualization To Help You Overcome Anxiety & Panic Attacks
My panic attacks started in my early 20s, and for years, I was unable to heal my chronic anxiety.
As a child, I always felt like I had a heightened sense of sensitivity and empathy. Growing up, I could pick up on other people's feelings — the anger of a teacher or the despair of a student being bullied. The world seemed like a scary and unpredictable place, and being hypersensitive made me feel especially vulnerable.
I kept trying to push anxiety away in an attempt to be "normal." My greatest fear was having a panic attack in public, and despite my attempts to remain calm, I would sometimes have to run out of the movie theater or the mall because I was panicking.
My life got smaller and smaller as I hid and made excuses to stay home. It wasn't until I began working to develop my intuition that I found workable practices that could help ease my anxiety. Tired of perceiving my sensitivity as a weakness, I wanted to see if I could use it to help others, which led me to seek training as a psychic.
By taking this journey into my intuitive side, I learned to listen to my feelings instead of ignoring or second-guessing them. I came to realize that feelings are just energies vibrating at different frequencies, and anxiety was a frequency that I could learn to recognize and shift.
Here are the three spiritual practices that have helped me control my panic and anxiety.
I kept trying to push anxiety away in an attempt to be "normal."
1. Visualize your anxiety in a new way.
Life is sometimes going to feel scary. If you have permission to be afraid, the fear can move through you rather than get stuck and escalate into terror.
The next time you find yourself feeling anxious or worried, instead of trying to get rid of the panic, imagine that it's a little 4-year-old child who has come running into your room after a nightmare. Sweep her up into your arms, and listen to her tell you what she's afraid of. You can become the compassionate witness to the little kid inside who needs your love and acceptance.
This visualization does two things: It energetically separates your adult self from the one who's panicking, and it puts you in the empowering position of being able to comfort your own fear. This was especially helpful to me whenever I had to travel or get on a plane. I would imagine I was holding my child in my arms, and whenever I felt her fear, I would tell her that she had me to lean on and I would never let her go. That small, scared part of me was free to be scared, and having the freedom to be afraid actually made her feel more at peace.
2. Recognize that sometimes the anxiety you're feeling isn't your own.
We are all made of energy, and we're all connected. We'll often pick up on the feelings of others and carry them around without realizing it. If you've ever had a conversation with someone who was having a bad day and you came away feeling negative, it's likely because you're holding on to some of their energy.
Next time you become aware that you're anxious, set the intention to release anything that isn't yours. In your mind, imagine a grounding cord that stretches from the base of your spine to the center of the earth. As you exhale, imagine that you're letting go of anything that doesn't belong to you. Imagine it traveling down the grounding cord to the center of the earth. Just set the intention to release it, and you'll feel your body begin to relax.
Life is sometimes going to feel scary.
3. Consult with your Spirit Guides.
This practice is for a moment when you aren't panicking, because it can be challenging to focus on your Spirit Guides when you're in a state of extreme fear. I know the whole concept of Spirit Guides can seem really "woo-woo," and I totally understand the tendency to see them as silly, but they've proven oh-so-helpful in my fight against panic and anxiety.
Spirit Guides use mind-to-mind communication to give us guidance. Although they're invisible to human eyes, they're wise and loving beings who surround and support you. You can always ask them questions about how to move forward in your life. Close your eyes, and imagine that you're sitting in a chair in the middle of a beautiful room. Ask your guides to enter the room and stand in front of you. Ask them what you need to do to find more peace in your life, and listen to what you hear or take note of what you see. If you have trouble seeing or hearing anything at first, it's okay. Just be open to receiving an answer.
You might suddenly get a picture in your mind of an activity that would help you feel more calm. Your answer might even come in the form of a book that your guides nudge you to pick up, or it might be in a conversation you overhear. Your guides will conspire to get the answers to you, somehow.
Having a spiritual practice that resonates with you will help you put difficult feelings like panic and anxiety into perspective. The more you embrace your feelings instead of pushing them away, the easier it will be to love and accept yourself just as you are.

SINGAPORE: Singapore's central bank said on Tuesday that it has imposed financial penalties on Credit Suisse and United Overseas Bank (UOB) after completing its two-year review of banks involved in 1MDB-related transactions.
It fined Credit Suisse S$700,000 (US$504,950) and UOB S$900,000. It has previously imposed fines on other banks.
Malaysia's 1MDB, once a pet project of Prime Minister Najib Razak who chaired its advisory board, is the subject of money-laundering investigations in at least six countries including Switzerland, Singapore, and the United States.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore said in a statement on Tuesday that its latest inspections of the two banks revealed several breaches of anti-money laundering requirements and control lapses. -- Reuters

Drawing from over 35 years of experience in clinical practice, administration and health system innovation, Dr. Brad Stuart has given hundreds of presentations across the US and internationally. His engaging, informative and inspiring manner has gained praise and positive reviews from all his audiences.
Dr. Stuart is convinced that we are entering a period of great challenge and great opportunity. Cultural, financial and even spiritual forces are converging to force a fundamental restructuring of our health care system. The "silver tsunami" of Baby Boomers aging into Medicare is driving this revolution, both because their sheer numbers will make the current system unsustainable and because the Boomers will harness the political system to demand better services as they age.
In response to these pressures, advanced care has become a real movement for positive change, and Dr. Stuart is a leading voice in this movement. He is available to speak on these and other topics:
- Advanced Care: Promoting Dignity, Choice and Responsibility
- Healing vs. Curing: A New Approach to Care of Advanced Illness
- Rx for Advanced Illness: Let's Provide Real Health Care
- We Can Have It All: Better Care, Lower Costs
- People or Patients: The Anatomy of Person-Centered Care

The Discussion
I am a little nervous about Spore. It will certainly help the PC's image as the great gaming option it always has been, and the creature creator is certainly a lot of fun., but it's been a really long time coming. I just hope the developers didn't dumb it down too much, I'll more than likely get it, however, it's time something new and original came out.

Well I finally did it. I remembered that today is What I Ate Wednesday. Only problem? I didn't remember to photograph a whole day's worth of eats. However, I was able to photograph every mealtime at least once during the week, including breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner. So although this may not be one single day of eats for me, it still represents the meals I enjoyed this past week. Baby steps, right?
Over the weekend, my husband was actually out of town in Orlando. He went to play in a softball tournament, and to golf and spend time with his grandpa. Being alone means that I have free reign over my meals and can eat things that he may not care for so much. Now don't get me wrong, Tim is a trooper when it comes to trying new foods, but sometimes he would rather have a Blueberry Eggo Waffle than one of my delicious (?) concoctions. Sunday morning, I decided to make a quick and simple breakfast, but ate and enjoyed it slowly.
Peanut Butter Banana Bread Oatmeal
- 1/2 cup oats
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon sugar, stevia, or your favorite sugar substitute OR 1 teaspoon sugar-free caramel syrup (which is what I used)
- 1 banana, mashed
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Cook oats and water in microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds. Stir and microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Add vanilla and sweetener to oats, then stir together. Add mashed banana on top, along with peanut butter, and sprinkle cinnamon. There you have it, a filling breakfast that is ready in less than 5 minutes.
I enjoyed my bowl of Peanut Butter Banana Bread Oatmeal alongside a cup of coffee, served black.
Breakfast was also accompanied by my Sunday morning devotionals.
If you are looking for a good devotional website, I recommend www.girlfriendsingod.com. It is the website I use to get daily devotionals sent straight to my inbox each morning. It helps me to start my day off on a calm and positive note. Feel free to check it out if you're interested!
Lunch on Saturday was a 'clean out the fridge' smoothie after I got back from a jog with my dog, Tebow. I constantly try to use all of my groceries before they go bad in order to not waste money. That means I throw a lot of fruits and veggies into the freezer and then use them for smoothies, and this mealtime was no exception.
Into the blender went:
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 bag baby spinach
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
Let me tell you that this smoothie was not only delicious, but also nutritious and filling. I swear that you could not taste the spinach whatsoever.
Served up in my cup I got at the Kenny Chesney & Tim McGraw concert this past July.
Nothing screams Rock N' Roll like Kenny, Tim and a spinach smoothie…or maybe not!
My go-to snack this past week was a Pumpkin Chocolate Cupcake that I made on a whim. I guess this recipe would kind of go with October's WIAW theme, it could be considered a Healthy Halloween Treat. Pumpkin = Fall = Halloween. Once again, I was cleaning out my fridge and pantry, and realized I had the ingredients and more to make a Pinterest recipe I had seen where the only two ingredients were chocolate cake mix + a can of pumpkin puree. I am rarely known to follow a recipe, so I decided to take my own twist on the simple treat.
Chocolate Pumpkin Protein Cupcakes
- 1 box of chocolate cake mix
- 1 can pumpkin puree
- 1 scoop protein powder (I used Cookies & Cream, but feel free to use Vanilla or Chocolate flavors too.)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients and blend with a hand mixer. Batter will be thick. Place batter evenly into cupcake liners and bake 18-20 minutes until fully cooked through.
I stored these cupcakes in the refrigerator and enjoyed them throughout the week. Feel free to smear a little peanut butter on top for a little 'icing' action. It is delicious!
Tim came back home Sunday evening, and I was so happy to see his face. This also means I was back to preparing full meals in order to fill him up, while still keeping dinner as healthy as possible for the both of us. I decided to give stuffed chicken a chance by butterflying two chicken breasts, stuffing with low-fat mozzarella string cheese and broccoli, pan searing and then baking until fully cooked. I served the chicken alongside 'oven fried' zucchini, which I lightly breaded in whole wheat flour, eggs, and panko bread crumbs.
There you have it. A nice sample of my eats for the week. Maybe next week I will remember to photograph one whole day of eats. We will see!
What is the best thing you ate this week?
Do you tend to make smaller, much simpler meals when you are only cooking for yourself?
Any good Pinterest recipes you've made lately?
Tell me what your favorite Halloween/Fall treat is!

The Hippogriff is a classic fantasy creature, half eagle and half horse. Not as classic as the griffin. Actually the first time I heard of a hippogriff was in The Prisoner of Azkaban and not really sure if they were for real or not. Seems a bit like the griffin's dorkier cousin. Their eggs are valuable though and they make decent mounts.
Haven't animate anything in a while and I wanted to try out Photoshop's animation function. It's frustratingly basic, but at least I can use its brushes. I animated the basic hippogriff in Flash, then painted it and the background in Photoshop and comped it in After Effects. Finally made myself figure out scrolling backgrounds (with some help).

Supplement Retirement Income – Use Your Skills, Work From Home
Some people who have recently retired from their job are not looking to settle into playing golf every day. Or, they may need to supplement retirement income. And, of course, many people of early retirement age have a wealth of experience and want to maintain an active daily schedule.
According to a Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) report, 18% of those involved in early entrepreneurship are over 55 and 7.9% are over 65 years of age. That number could be as high as it is due to many older people finding it difficult to procure employment that will pay them for their experience and skills. Or, they simply have worked for someone else for so long they want to be their own boss. Therefore they choose to start their own business.
In any case, starting a business from home is a great solution to supplement retirement income.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it sets you up the day ahead. It provides you with the fuel and energy you need to start your day and to keep you going until lunch time. I must admit, it was only a few months ago that I did start to eat breakfast. I started when I was on my healthy eating binge before my holiday back in May. I found by eating a healthy nutritious breakfast, I snacked less which meant I then lost more weight. I felt it also perked me up afterwards, as I usually have my breakfast an hour into work so this beats my sluggish mood.
I love mixing my breakfast up, I tend to stick to milk and cereal in the week and a little treat at the weekend. This is a bacon sandwich or some buttery toast with a cup of Yorkshire tea. It does not hurt to have little bits of what you fancy but I do tend have these at the weekend as they aren't the healthiest options for breakfast.
What you have for breakfast is said to tell a lot about yourself, more than what you think. From how you brown your toast to what bread you use. Marmalade makers Duerr's worked with Roberts Bakery (the bread people) on a study to see how people liked the thickness of the bread, if they double dip (thats the knifes), how you spread the jam or butter. This is then said to determine if your breakfast buddy is going to be your long time breakfast buddy or is it just a quick snatch and grab before you leave the door in the morning.
From identifying how you make your toast in the morning Dr Sandi Mann and the academics were then able to match this to 15 personality types. Once you have identified your personality you then can do this on your breakfast buddy to see if you are match. So, if they like warm soggy toast with the crusts cut off can determine if they are the 'one'. It sounds like something from match.com which also does have some great success stories of matching singles along with their personality types, so maybe they are on to something here.
So, what are you waiting for? www.marmaladeandtoast.co.uk

PG Monitoring System AB, together with Arne Jensen AB, has developed a new module in the same spirit and quality as the previously popular series microPG and miniPG.
The difference with the new module sm-basicPG is that it listens to leakage noise instead of measuring on the alarm wires. It keeps track of old facilities where there are no wires or broken ones! The technique is well proven and shows in the map where the highest leakage noise exists.
How does it work?
Now the world's first monitoring system is being launched to simultaneously surveillance the pipes in district heating networks with this leakage technology. The modules search for leak sounds and present values in a map image (PGWEB), which can then be judged based on the size of the leakage noise.
Behind the technology lies more than 30 years of experience gathered in algorithms that handle the sound collection. This revolutionary news is hugely demanded even before the system has been launched on the official market. All old culvert and pipes without alarm wires can now be monitored in a simple and easy way. This, of course, will not replace the wires that are superior to locating the fault in very small deviations, but being able to quickly find and understand in what area or between which chambers your leaks
occurs. This will be of great benefit to the operating staff and alarm technicians.
The Sound card from Arne Jensen AB
The JAL card is a unique product for the collection of acoustic signals for post-processing and analysis. For this, an unaffected collection and transmission of the acoustic signal is required.
The JAL card consists of two parts, microphones that capture and send the sound to an amplifier that packs and prepares the acoustic signal for direct processing and analysis. Thereafter, the sm-basicPG module sends the information further with GPRS.
The microphones used are designed to capture sound naturally. The design are unique and patented. The combination of amplifier microphone provides a unique opportunity to collect signals and for clean monitoring or advanced state monitoring, status control.
Algorithms developed for more than 30 years will analyse and look for typical leakage sounds and amplify the noise found in the pipes while surrounding disturbances are effectively filtered off. This is because the analysis should contain sounds that are interesting and that noise from, for example, traffic and pumps will not be affected to a greater extent. This noise would, if it were not taken into account, give rise to gross misinterpretations.
The simplicity of the result, either analysed on the spot by the module as an alarm or forwarded to the PGweb cloud service for analysis, is the unique part of the product from Arne Jensen AB. A straight-line audio signal that can be clearly analysed in PGweb with its trend features and alarm setting capabilities.

Prefilled Syringes Market
Prefilled Syringes Market (Material - Glass-based and Polymer-based; Distribution Channel - Hospitals, ASCs, and Mail Order Pharmacies; Application - Vaccines and Monoclonal Antibodies) - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2016 - 2024
- Category : Healthcare
- Format :
Press Release :
Prefilled Syringes Market: Snapshot
Parenteral is one of the most commonly used route of drug administration, oral administration being the most preferred one. A steady rise in the development and availability of parenteral drugs has resulted in the increasing demand for several advanced drug delivery devices that promise cost containment as well as ease of administration.
Prefilled syringes are one of the most rapidly expanding segments of the injectable drug delivery devices market. There are several benefits of prefilled syringes over traditional delivery systems: improved safety, ease of administration, accurate dosing, and reduced risk of contamination. These advantages form the basic foundation for the success of prefilled syringes and are likely to continue driving the market during the forecast period.
Technical advances in the sector, rapid growth in the biologics market, and the growing preference for self-administration using autoinjectors, prefilled syringes, and pen injectors are the key factors boosting the global market for prefilled syringes.
The global sales of prefilled syringes amounted to US$3.5 bn in 2015 and is projected to reach US$7.9 bn, expanding at a CAGR of 9.3% over the period of 2016 to 2024.
Glass Prefilled Syringes to Lose Market Share Despite being Most Preferred Segment
Prefilled syringes are available in two key types – plastic (polymer) and glass – depending on the kind of material used to develop the barrel of the syringe. Despite the fact that the industry has been reporting a growing use of polymers by many manufacturers of syringes, glass is still considered to be the top-most choice and will continue to dominate the market in terms of volume as well as revenue. This is attributed to the fact that changing the perception of healthcare practitioners and manufacturers over the preference of glass over plastic is expected to be a rather gradual process. The segment of glass prefilled syringes is anticipated to lose market share toward the end of the forecast period, which will be replaced by plastic syringes. The latter is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.8% from 2016 to 2024.
By application, the market is segmented into vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, and others. On the basis of distribution channel, the prefilled syringes market is categorized into hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and mail order pharmacies.
Japan Most Promising Market in APAC Prefilled Syringes Market
Europe has maintained its position as the leading regional market for prefilled syringes in terms of volume (unit consumption) as well as revenue. However, the APAC market for prefilled syringes is anticipated to exhibit strong growth at a CAGR of 11.3% during the forecast period. The presence of leading drug manufacturers in the region requiring prefillable syringes and the high conversion rate from vials to prefilled syringes are the primary factors likely to support the growth of the APAC market.
Asia Pacific is perceived as a follower rather than a leader when it comes to the development and adoption of new technologies. Although the prefilled syringes market is presently in its stage of infancy in APAC, factors such as improving economic conditions, the rising purchasing power of the people, the growth in awareness regarding the advantages of prefilled syringes, and the presence of a large patient suffering from various chronic diseases are expected to drive the market to register a double-digit CAGR. In Asia Pacific, Japan accounts for the major share in the market by revenue as well as volume.
Major players in the global prefilled syringes market include Becton Dickinson & Co., Gerresheimer, Medtronic, Baxter International, SCHOTT AG, West Pharmaceuticals, Vetter International, Unilife Corporation, Stevanato Group, and Terumo Corporation.

Tell Me It Ain't So

Tell Me It Ain't So
December 06, 2018
Sorry, but this is true: 62% of illegal immigrants use or will use welfare!
So if the number of 11,000,000 illegals is true (and this is probably low,) that means 6,930,000 NON-Americans live off the American tax payer.
A closer look at the numbers means that on average illegals are take $20,790,000,000 PER MONTH in American tax payer dollars. Put another way, they cost taxpayers $249 BILLION each year.
I don't know about you, but I'm outraged. Almost a quarter of a TRILLION dollars a year is going to people who are in our country illegally. How in the world did we allow this to happen?
And here is another number that should make you crazy: 70% of illegal immigrants who have been in America for more than 10 years have been on welfare the entire time.
How many homeless American veterans could we house for 249 billion dollars per year? How much could we improve the education of American kids with that kind of money? How many jobs could be generated in an infrastructure project with that kind of money? The list of worthwhile projects goes on.
Think about this: 6000 people on our southern border are trying to get into America because they want a better life. If the numbers hold, their entry would cost American tax payers an additional $14 million every month or $168 million each year.
Where does that money come from? Increase our national debt so our grandkids have to pay? Raise taxes on the American people? Cut services to the American people?
Here's a simple plan.
- First, seal our southern border.
- Second, pass a law that prohibits welfare for those in the country illegally. It's crazy to reward those who sneak into our country with welfare benefits.
- Third, establish a worker's permit program that allows those who actually want to work to come in.
- Finally, pass tough penalties against those American companies who hire illegal immigrants.
The American people can't afford the cost of illegal immigration. Our politicians do a terrible disservice to us when they force us to pay it.
