Constipation in children can be effectively dealt with by monitoring a well-balanced diet. Eating the following things and drinking nearly three liters of water each day can relieve your child from stool withholding.
- Eat these fruits raw: Apples, plums and pears should be eaten raw along with their skins. These fruits are known to contain an average of 4.4 to 3.3 grams of dietary fiber that will further stimulate bowel movements. Apples, pears and plums are rich in pectin and hence help in softening your stool.
- Add nuts to your daily diet: Nuts can help you if you are suffering from constipation. However, nuts should not be consumed in excess as they can make you gain calories. Having a fistful of nuts once in a day could work wonders for your digestive health.
- Have a high- fiber cereal for breakfast: High- fiber cereal for breakfast can give your day a good start. It prevents stool withholding. Cereals in present times no more taste bland. You may add some honey to your child's bowl of cereals; honey acts as a laxative and caters to a person's taste buds as well. If your cereal is not sufficiently fiber dense you may add some flaxseed to every single serving.
- Sweet berries can be of great help: Berries have nutrients that are known to cure symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and raspberries should be included in a child's diet. These fruits are rich in vitamin C and vitamin K. They are good for a child's fiber and copper requirements.
- Get a full night's sleep: A full night's sleep is extremely important for good digestion. Improper digestion could be the reason behind continual constipation. Children these days tend to keep awake till late. Children should at least get seven to eight hours of sleep regularly.
In spite of following a healthy lifestyle the problem of constipation may still persist. It is best to consult a professional doctor in such a case. Before seeing a doctor to remedy constipation it is important to jot down certain points regarding your child's health. A guardian must make a list of medications his or her child has been taking by far, a list of symptoms he or she has been facing simultaneously and must also carry a brief record of one's family history. Constipation, if left unchecked, can lead to anal fissures over time.
Hello Friends,
Patient often asks me why it is important to walk bare feet? In reply to this I always ask them one question, how many times they walk bare feet? Even in home we walk with slippers or footwears. Are we not deliberately disconnecting ourslef with earth? We all know earth has gravity due to which we are stick to the land. On the period when moon size grows from the amavasya (new moon), moon also pulls up as it has gravity too. Tides in oceans are on high. At that time when moon starts growing in size, we must try to walk bare feet so that effect of moon's upward pull or gravity has negligible effect on body. We must connect ourselves to the earth as we are earth beings. Walking bare feet even for shorter duration from new moon day to next full moon day has good effect on body.
A sparkling set of shiny white teeth can make a smile more appealing and infectious. Yellow teeth can be extremely embarrassing and annoying. The important dental tissues that make up a tooth include the Enamel, Dentin, Cementum and the Pulp, of these four tissues, the enamel (the white and hard teeth surface) and the dentin (pale brown) are responsible for the tooth colour. Any damage to these two tissues bring about teeth discolouration and factors that contribute significantly towards yellowing of teeth include:
- Poor dental care and hygiene like improper and inadequate flossing and brushing techniques.
- Unhealthy lifestyle habits like chewing of tobacco and betel nuts, smoking, excessive consumption of alcohol, tea and coffee.
- Certain medical conditions and treatments (chemotherapy and radiation) can adversely affect the dentin and the enamel. Antihistamines are also known to stain the teeth. It is best to avoid mouth washes containing Cetylpyridinium Chloride.
- With age, the enamel tends to thin naturally exposing the dentin that lies underneath it.
- Fluoride intake in excess can stain and discolour the teeth.
- Yellow or discoloured teeth can also be genetic.
Yellow teeth, though frustrating, can be fully treated. The mode and success of the treatment is largely influenced by the extent of the teeth discolouration.
- Avoid smoking and chewing of tobacco as much as possible. Control the intake of drinks and foods that can stain and discolour your teeth.
- Practice healthy dental hygiene. Brush your teeth twice daily.
- Some whitening agents (over-the-counter) can be effectively used to treat yellow teeth.
- Dental veneers are a great way to deal with yellow teeth.
- For a healthy set of white teeth with pearly shine, consult a dentist every six months.
In addition, several natural and homemade remedies can also prove to be beneficial
- Nothing can treat yellow teeth more effectively than baking soda. Brushing your teeth with toothpaste mixed with baking soda (about a quarter teaspoon) can do the yellow teeth a world of good. Using a mixture of baking soda with vinegar (white), lemon juice and hydrogen peroxide is an effective natural remedy.
- A healthy practice to get rid of yellow teeth is to rub the teeth with orange peel every night.
- Rubbing the teeth with Strawberry paste will help to reduce the yellow stain greatly.
- The benefits of lemon are known to all. Brush your teeth with a mixture of lemon juice and salt. Wash it off after a few minutes and the yellow tinge will be a thing of the past.
- Charcoal, Apples and Basil leaves are powerful natural ingredients to treat yellow teeth.
Your smile is precious! Do not lose it to yellow teeth.
Tonsillitis is a condition, which is characterized by infection of the tonsils in your throat. The tonsils are a pair of lymph nodes that are situated in the throat; its primary function is to protect the body from various infections at very early childhood.
Although the disorder can occur at any age, it is majorly common among children. A large number of bacteria or viruses can cause this disorder, but the most serious symptoms occur when it is caused by the streptococcal bacteria.
Although tonsils combat these infections, at times, they can fall prey to the same, thus resulting in tonsillitis. Tonsillitis can be caused by both virus and bacteria; however, it is mostly caused by the former. Kids and school going children are very vulnerable to this disorder as they can come in contact with harmful viruses and bacteria very easily.
You will experience symptoms such as a sore throat, bad breath and have difficulty in speaking. Swelling of the tonsils will also make swallowing of food a difficult affair. Other symptoms of tonsillitis are stomach cramps, fever and headaches. The neck and the jaw may also feel tender due to the swollen lymph nodes.
If the symptoms are mild, then it usually does not require any specific treatment.
For severe symptoms, antibiotics are prescribed to combat the bacteria that caused the infection in the first place.
Chronic cases of this disorder warrant a surgery known as tonsillectomy. This is a surgical procedure to remove the tonsils. In case of dehydration, intravenous fluids are administered.
In addition to these treatment methods, there are certain home remedies that you can follow. The tips you can follow are:
- Keep yourself well hydrated
- Use a humidifier
- Gargle with lukewarm water mixed with salt, regularly
If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a doctor and ask a free question.

Step 1: Begin by looking at your breasts in the mirror with your shoulders straight and your arms on your hips.
Here's what you should look for:
Breasts that are their usual size, shape, and color
Breasts that are evenly shaped without visible distortion or swelling
If you see any of the following changes, bring them to your doctor's attention:
Dimpling, puckering, or bulging of the skin
A nipple that has changed position or an inverted nipple (pushed inward instead of sticking out)
Redness, soreness, rash, or swelling
Step 2: now, raise your arms and look for the same changes.
Step 3: while you're at the mirror, look for any signs of fluid coming out of one or both nipples (this could be a watery, milky, or yellow fluid or blood).
Step 4: next, feel your breasts while lying down, using your right hand to feel your left breast and then your left hand to feel your right breast. Use a firm, smooth touch with the first few finger pads of your hand, keeping the fingers flat and together. Use a circular motion, about the size of a quarter.
Cover the entire breast from top to bottom, side to side — from your collarbone to the top of your abdomen, and from your armpit to your cleavage.
Follow a pattern to be sure that you cover the whole breast. You can begin at the nipple, moving in larger and larger circles until you reach the outer edge of the breast. You can also move your fingers up and down vertically, in rows, as if you were mowing a lawn. This up-and-down approach seems to work best for most women. Be sure to feel all the tissue from the front to the back of your breasts: for the skin and tissue just beneath, use light pressure; use medium pressure for tissue in the middle of your breasts; use firm pressure for the deep tissue in the back. When you've reached the deep tissue, you should be able to feel down to your ribcage.
Step 5: finally, feel your breasts while you are standing or sitting. Many women find that the easiest way to feel their breasts is when their skin is wet and slippery, so they like to do this step in the shower. Cover your entire breast, using the same hand movements described in step 4.
Is the taste of ice cream or a sip of hot coffee sometimes a painful experience for you? Does brushing or flossing make you wince occasionally? If so, you may have sensitive teeth.
Possible causes include:
Tooth decay (cavities)
Fractured teeth
Worn fillings
Gum disease
Worn tooth enamel
Exposed tooth root
In healthy teeth, a layer of enamel protects the crowns of your teeth—the part above the gum line. Under the gum line a layer called cementum protects the tooth root. Underneath both the enamel and the cementum is dentin.
Dentin is less dense than enamel and cementum and contains microscopic tubules (small hollow tubes or canals). When dentin loses its protective covering of enamel or cementum these tubules allow heat and cold or acidic or sticky foods to reach the nerves and cells inside the tooth. Dentin may also be exposed when gums recede. The result can be hypersensitivity.
Sensitive teeth can be treated. The type of treatment will depend on what is causing the sensitivity. Your dentist may suggest one of a variety of treatments:
Desensitizing toothpaste. This contains compounds that help block transmission of sensation from the tooth surface to the nerve, and usually requires several applications before the sensitivity is reduced.
Fluoride gel. An in-office technique which strengthens tooth enamel and reduces the transmission of sensations.
A crown, inlay or bonding. These may be used to correct a flaw or decay that results in sensitivity.
Surgical gum graft. If gum tissue has been lost from the root, this will protect the root and reduce sensitivity.
Root canal. If sensitivity is severe and persistent and cannot be treated by other means, your dentist may recommend this treatment to eliminate the problem.
Proper oral hygiene is the key to preventing sensitive-tooth pain. Ask your dentist if you have any questions about your daily oral hygiene routine or concerns about tooth sensitivity.
Thalassemia is a type of a disease, resulting in the abnormal production of hemoglobin in the blood. Hemoglobin stimulates oxygen circulation all over the body. Therefore, a dip in the hemoglobin count can lead to anemia, a disease inducing weakness as well as fatigue. Acute anemia can take a toll on the organs and ultimately cause death.
Severe thalassemia in children yields symptoms, such as dark urine, abdominal swelling, slow growth, jaundice, a pale appearance and deformed skull bones. Diarrhea, frequent fevers and eating disorders are also common.
- Blood transfusions: Regular blood transfusion is the only treatment needed for beta thalassemia aiming to keep sufficient Hb level to avoid long-term complications, though bone marrow transplant is radical cure for the disease.
- Iron chelation therapy: The hemoglobin in the red blood cells is rich in iron-protein that gets deposited in the blood with regular blood transfusion. This condition is known as iron overload as it damages heart, liver and various parts of the body. Iron chelation therapy is used to prevent this damage as it helps to remove the excess iron from the body. Deferoxamine and Deferasirox are two such medicines used for this therapy.
- Folic acid supplements: Folic acid being a B vitamin produces healthy red blood cells and is therefore recommended as a substitute for the above procedures.
- Transplant of blood and marrow stem cell: A blood and a marrow (a substance within the cavities of bones where blood cells are produced) transplant replaces the faulty stem cells with healthy ones contributed by a donor.

Raising a child with dyslexia can stir up a lot of emotions. You may look ahead and wonder if this learning issue will affect your child's future. But dyslexia is not a prediction of failure. Dyslexia is quite common, and many successful individuals have dyslexia.
Research has proven that there are different ways of teaching that can help people with dyslexia succeed. There's a lot you can do as a parent too.
What are the symptoms of dyslexia?
Because dyslexia affects some people more severely than others, your child's symptoms may look different from those in another child. Some kids with dyslexia have trouble with reading and spelling. Others may struggle to write or to tell left from right.
Dyslexia can also make it difficult for people to express themselves clearly. It can be hard for them to structure their thoughts during conversation. They may have trouble finding the right words to say.
Others struggle to understand what they're hearing. This is especially true when someone uses nonliteral language such as jokes and sarcasm.
The signs you see may also look different at various ages. Some of the warning signs for dyslexia, such as a speech delay, appear before a child reaches kindergarten.

According to most experts, Depression and Diabetes have been intricately connected in a vicious cycle. While the prolonged and sustaining nature of diabetes directly makes one vulnerable to the bouts of depression, doctors tend to locate traces of depression in the family history of an individual in order to diagnose the roots of diabetes. It won't be too far-fetched to state that both causes as well as affects the other.
If you have diabetes, either type 1 or type 2, you have an increased risk of developing depression. And if you're depressed, you may have a greater chance of developing type 2 diabetes. The good news is that diabetes and depression can be treated together. And effectively managing one can have a positive effect on the other.
How Diabetes and Depression Correlated?
There are myriad ways in which diabetes affects depression and vice versa.
Firstly, tackling such a long drawn disease and its various pitfalls might cause a lot of anxiety to one and lead to depression. Whereas on the other hand, depression reduces the zeal to live and thus results in poor lifestyle choices which in turn causes weight gain, unhealthy food habits, physical inactivity. As we are well aware, all these have the potential to wreak havoc for any patient of diabetes.
Similarly, diabetes ushers in various other health complications, adversely impacting one's productivity. This may cause depression in a lot of people.
On the flipside, depression impedes one's ability and enthusiasm to work or communicate, this in turn intervenes with one's monitoring of diabetes. Since these two extremely malevolent diseases have such close connections, medical science recommends ways to grapple with both. The rigors of managing diabetes can be stressful and lead to symptoms of depression.
Diabetes can cause complications and health problems that may worsen symptoms of depression.
Depression affects your ability to perform tasks, communicate and think clearly. This can interfere with your ability to successfully manage diabetes.
Treatment: Depression is just like any other illness, it can be treated. Treatment can lift the depression and improve diabetes control.
Looking after your diabetes will help decrease the risk of getting depression. If you already have depression, good diabetes management will help lessen the negative impacts it can have. Depression is no different to any of the other complication of diabetes. It is a genuine illness for which you need to seek help and support from health professionals.
The treatment for depression and diabetes involves a coordinated approach that monitors both diabetes control and the symptoms of depression. It is about finding the treatment that works best for each person. For example, people with diabetes and mild depression may find that regular physical activity improves depressed moods and also helps control blood glucose levels.
Helping Yourself.
If you suspect you might have depression, take control of your health by:
- Going to a doctor or other health professional
- Getting involved in social activities
- Engaging in regular moderate physical activity
- Learning about depression and diabetes
- Very particular about medicines prescribed for Diabetes
- Eating healthily and including a wide variety of nutritious foods
- Achieving and maintaining healthy weight
- Limiting your alcohol intake
- Getting help, support and encouragement from family and friends
- Asking your doctor to check your blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose levels If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a doctor and ask a free question.

The primary treatment methods of hearing loss in children include the following:
Watchful waiting: Sometimes, the condition may resolve on its own and the treatment involves simple monitoring of your child for positive changes.
Medicines: There are certain medicines for hearing loss in children, which may be prescribed by your pediatrician.
Ear tubes: Ear tubes may be recommended if medicines and monitoring do not work. The tubes allow fluid to drain and help in preventing infections. A minor surgery has to be undertaken on your child for getting the ear tubes placed. This will solve the hearing loss and other related issues.
Hearing aids: Hearing aids may be used to allow your child hear better. It is safe for children to use ear tubes after the age of one month. For the right hearing aid for your child, you need to consult a hearing specialist.
Implants: Cochlear implants are used to treat hearing loss in many children. These are electronic devices which are put in the inner ear to benefit hearing. These should be used only if hearing aids did not succeed and these are meant to be used only in case of children with serious hearing problems.
There are several other devices, which can help your child with hearing loss. For suggestions and recommendations, you must take your child to a hearing specialist.

IT Pro Ranking: SIEM
InformationWeek surveyed 322 business technology professionals who use or have used or evaluated security information and event management (SIEM) products in the past 12 months. We asked respondents to rate these products in two major categories: overall performance and SIEM-specific capabilities such as real-time alerts, search and log management. Our survey listed 17 vendors; of those, eight received a sufficient number of responses to be rated: HP/ArcSight, IBM/Q1 Labs, NetIQ, Novell, Quest Software, Splunk, Symantec and Tripwire.
Users and evaluators of IBM/Q1 Labs rated it leader for overall performance, with a score of 76%. However, Novell and HP/ArcSight are just behind with scores of 75% and 74%, respectively. When it comes to SIEM features, respondents again rated IBM/Q1 Labs as leader, at 84%. Novell was rated 81%. From here, the gap between scores begins to fall more steeply, with HP/ArcSight rated third at 77%.
Our survey also looks at primary drivers for SIEM use, most important features, challenges that users face with the products and other aspects of SIEM operation. We also provide the mean average ratings for vendors in each of the general performance and feature-specific criteria used for our scoring. (R5030612)

Banana Cream Pudding
- 1 quart milk
- 2 cups sugar, plus 1/4 cup sugar
- 8 large eggs, separated, whites discarded or store for another use
- 1 teaspoon banana extract
- 1/3 cup bourbon
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, plus a splash
- 2 tablespoons butter, cut into cubes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 large bananas, sliced
- 1 box vanilla wafers
- 1/3 cup creme de banana
Scald milk, in a large sauce pot, with a pinch of the sugar (this avoids scorching the bottom of the pot).
In a mixing bowl, add egg yolks, banana extract, bourbon and 2 cups of sugar and whisk together until the mixture is pale yellow in color and thickened. Add cornstarch and mix to combine. Very slowly pour in a little of the milk mixture, you have to do it slowly to temper the mixture, (otherwise the eggs will scramble). Once fully incorporated pour the entire mixture back into the pot and place over medium heat. Stir constantly until it comes to a simmer and the mixture thickens enough that it coats the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from heat and add a pinch of salt and vanilla extract, then add butter cubes and stir to make the mixture rich and super glossy.
Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap onto the surface so it doesn't form a skin on the surface. Allow to cool.
In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, whip the cream with 1/4 cup of sugar and a splash of vanilla extract until you have stiff peaks. Set aside.
Slice bananas and add to pastry cream.
Line a small deep rectangular dish or a 10-inch pie dish with vanilla wafers. Splash with creme de banana then cover with banana pastry cream. Top with whipped cream and refrigerate until ready to serve.

ARTA argument is puzzling
An op-ed by Adirondack Recreation Trail Advocates' Lee Keet, "Yes, we need rail service to Lake Placid," Feb. 25, attempts to build the case for destruction of the Adirondack Scenic Railroad between Old Forge and Lake Placid by presenting an alternative as a ploy.
He then goes into a long-winded argument for an upgraded, multi-frequency, New York-Albany-Westport train service with a bus connector to Lake Placid, instead of direct rail service via Utica, to justify his ultimate goal: to rip out the railroad between Old Forge and Lake Placid in favor of his trail.
The unrelenting call by trail advocates to destroy the railroad makes enemies of what should be natural allies. If this were Europe, there would be dozens of trains on multiple routes serving the Adirondacks AND a massive trail/pedestrian network, and that's what should happen. But no. ARTA says we must destroy the last railroad in the Adirondacks, even though there are hundreds of miles of trails already.
As I puzzled over the intractable opposition by ARTA to anything other than the destruction of the railroad, I did some research and found that there is a foundation under the Keet name, supporting the Adirondack Nature Conservancy, the Adirondack Land Trust, the Wildlife Conservation Society and the Open Space Institute on the one hand and ARTA on the other. In its own words, "the primary purpose of the foundation is to improve the environment, both physical and cultural, in the Adirondacks and to make life easier, healthier, and more rewarding for the people who live there."
These are all fine organizations to support, even ARTA if it didn't want to kill the railroad. But how does "protecting the Adirondacks" square with more snowmobiles? It strikes me as very odd that Keet would simultaneously support environmental causes and an outfit – ARTA – which espouses more snowmobile use, especially since the Adirondacks are already being overwhelmed by on- and off-road motor vehicles. A stupendous number of motor vehicles are in the Adirondacks at any time, as a trip there will attest, and a 2008 study by Ecology & Environment for the Wild Center (Adirondack Energy $mart Park Initiative) projected a 45 percent increase in vehicle miles traveled by 2025. This is for highway only and does not include off-road vehicles.
Mr. Keet is a very smart and successful person. He no doubt knows that railroads are the most energy-efficient and environmentally benign of all transportation modes. One would think he would be calling for more direct train service to bring people into the Adirondacks without their vehicles, but here he is, calling for an end to the railroad north of Old Forge. On top of that, building his trail will only add to environmental degradation through added snowmobile and ATV use. Apparently, it's all right for the Adirondacks to be swamped with motor vehicles, but not to keep the only railroad running.
Whatever Mr. Keet's motivations, let us not be swayed to act in haste. Instead, keep this key fact in mind: If the railroad is torn out, it will never come back. The March 9 editorial by the Utica Observer-Dispatch has it right: "But the trump card is the track. It must not be disturbed. Once it's gone, there would never be a return to rail. The challenge here is for the powers-that-be to find compromise that can accommodate track and trail."

Christian's Library Press has released the first in its series of English translations of Abraham Kuyper's most famous work, Common Grace, a three-volume work of practical public theology. This release, Noah-Adam, is the first of three parts in Volume 1: The Historical Section.
Common Grace (De gemeene gratie) was originally published in 1901-1905 while Kuyper was prime minister. This new translation is for modern Christians who want to know more about their proper role in public life and the vastness of the gospel message. The project is a collaboration between the Acton Institute and Kuyper College.
For Kuyper, Noah provides "the fixed historical starting point for the doctrine of common grace lies in God's establishment of a covenant with Noah, after the flood."
As he explains further in the beginning of the book:
Until the time of Noah, everything surged back and forth in continual unrest, and was subjected to change. The curse continued its wrathful operation. But with Noah that turbulence was changed into rest through an omnipotent act of the Lord's mercy. After the flood God provided his covenant: his covenant given to this earth, to all who were called human beings, his covenant even to the animal world and to all of nature. It extends from Noah to the Maranatha for the external order of things, in undisturbed stability, rest, and order. It is the Lord's design. It is his sovereign good pleasure. (more…)

Hello Everyone! This is my first post, so I suppose I should introduce myself. I'm Paul. I live in Toronto, Ontario Canada. I've been lurking this forum for the last year, so I really have no idea why it took me so long to join!
Anyhow, to the questions...
How long have you been drinking tea? Well I'm 26 now...so 23, 24 years?
What was your first Tea? It must have been some kind of generic Lipton Orange Pekoe teabag.
What is your favorite Tea currently? Definitely this year's YM shincha from O-cha. I obviously can't post a review since I'm a new member, but...YUM! It was actually my first shincha.
What is your next purchase? I just placed an order for a nice little kyusu and some Tokujo Kamairicha and Sayamamidori from Yuuki-cha.
Where is your favorite spot to brew up? In my bachelor apartment/recording studio before and after a long day working tech support for a cable company.
Well, that's my little introduction. I owe this forum a big thanks for the crazy amount of knowledge it has provided!
Oh, and I'm also a bit of a shutterbug so you can count on me to contribute a bunch of photos to the forum.

Energy Trumps Safety
Petroleum is becoming more difficult and costly to extract. But since our economies remain dependent on fossil fuels, we are taking greater risks to acquire it. Increasing demand, coupled with declining supplies, is leading to volatility and higher prices, characteristic of what some economists refer to as "peak oil." Even the conservative International Energy Agency has acknowledged that oil production may peak in a decade's time.
Humanity has never been more dependent on fossil fuels than today. But a legacy of underinvestment in mining technology for oil, due to low petroleum prices in the 1980s and 1990s, and the progressive depletion of long-established and easily exploitable sources have impeded oil extraction and exploration at a time of rising demand.
And world demand is rising, particularly for liquid fuels. For all the talk about conservation and alternative energy fuels, industrialized economies have reduced their oil consumption only incrementally in recent years, while large emerging economies—including China, India and Brazil—have rapidly become more oil dependent. While alternatives are emerging, they are still not at a scale that they can replace significant portions of humanity's fossil fuel use.
The International Energy Agency's "World Energy Outlook 2010" reports that conventional crude oil output could flatten out in the next 10 years, and that total global production might come close to a peak before 2035. Many energy analysts and governments caution that unless this peak is anticipated by sustained efforts to massively increase efficiency in oil use and to develop alternatives, it will likely result in spiraling prices and supply shocks.
Of course, investments in new extraction technologies likely guarantee that oil will not run out for decades to come. But demand will increasingly be met by unconventional oil (and other fossil fuel) sources that depend on extraction technologies with a higher environmental risk, greater financial cost and higher harvesting efforts. The associated diminishing "energy return on investment" rates means that the amounts of fuel extracted for every unit of energy invested are falling.
Carbon concentrations in the atmosphere, meanwhile, continue to increase. Humanity already emits far more CO2 from fossil fuel burning than the planet's ecosystems can absorb. More aggressive exploration and exploitation of dirtier petroleum sources (such as tar sands) and unconventional fossil gas will increase CO2 emissions per unit of energy. This at a time when climate scientists warn that human-induced CO2 emissions should be rapidly reduced to avoid a potentially catastrophic greater than 2° C warming.Further information:

Pre-Seminary Track for the Master of Divinity Degree
The basic degree for ministers is the Master of Divinity. This degree is a three-year program that requires 87 to 98 hours of graduate and professional courses. All students planning to take the Master of Divinity Degree should take a Major in Religion with Greek as the foreign language. Wayland has standing agreements with selected Baptist seminaries that permit its students to qualify for advanced standing in Master of Divinity Degree programs. This lowers Master of Divinity requirements at these seminaries from 87 to 98 hours to as few as 72 hours. In addition, advanced standing degrees permit Religion majors to waive seminary survey classes and go on to advanced courses. To qualify for these advanced standing Master of Divinity Degrees, students must take a major in Religion or Religious Education and choose Greek as their foreign language. Students must earn a grade of "B" in core courses and maintain an overall grade point average (GPA) of 2.75.
Pre-Seminary Track for Master of Religious Education Degree
Because of an agreement between selected Baptist seminaries and Wayland, a student can receive credit for up to 14 hours of seminary course work by meeting the requirements established by the School of Religion and Philosophy.

@betajet: "Thank you for contributing this week's dose of nostalgia."
You're welcome! When I'm not reading SciFi I'm reading history.
@betajet: "A Pascal semicolon is a statement separator. You put it between statements. Thou shalt never place a semicolon in front of "else". In contrast, a C semicolon is a statement terminator."
Coming from a PL/I background I probably thought of it as a terminator, thinking of "else" as a separate statement (line). My brief encounter with Pascal was 30-some-odd years ago.
I try to write code so I can follow it a later time (somewhat self-documenting), using indenting. I would write: if (x >= 0) y = x; else y = -x; in two lines as:
if (x >= 0) y = x; else y = -x;"
I can see how if you read the Pascal statement from left-to-right it's almost a complete sentence, not broken down into separate steps like above:
if x >= 0 then y:= x else y:= -x
but, "OTOH, in C you can write "y = x >= 0? x: -x;" is great for compact syntax and saving space back when disk space was dear. But hey, it was written by system programmers looking for something between assembler and a high level language. I hope to learn it and play with it some day (I like the bit where you can stuff in some assembler or machine code in-line; a hacker's dream (from the original def of hacker).

Getting ready for your first marathon? Here�s what you need to know before the big day.
Running a marathon is intimidating enough, but running your first marathon? That takes the cake. There are so many questions: How will I feel? What do I eat? What do I wear? That�s where we can help. We spoke to several female bloggers who survived their first marathons and went on to run their second, third, fifth, even tenth marathons. They offered their top tips for conquering 26.2 miles�and having a blast every step of the way. 1. Believe in yourself. �Your first marathon is an indescribable rush,� says blogger Brook Kreder, 36, of Brooks First Marathon. �It�s normal to think what am I doing? Why am I here? Am I crazy? Everything you�ve done has led you to his moment, so trust your training. You will finish!� �RELATED: Becoming a Marathon Runner 2. Don�t worry about sleep. �the night before, that is. Everyone feels some nervous anticipation before the big day, and that often means it�s difficult to sleep the night before. If you get a sub-par night�s rest, don�t worry! Know that it�s completely normal, and your race likely won�t be affected. Just try to get more shut-eye during the week leading up to the event (go to bed earlier, sleep in if you can) so you�re well-rested. 3. Bring throw-away clothes. Fall marathons can be chilly at the start, so you�ll want to wear an extra layer. You�ll heat up as you run, though, and you won�t want to run with that sweatshirt tied around your waist. Beth Risdon, 46, blogger at Shut Up And Run�heads to a thrift store to buy sweats and a zip up sweatshirt that can be tossed aside a few minutes into the race. These are usually picked up and donated to charity. 4. Eat the right dinner. Contrary to popular misconception, you don�t have to pile on the heavy pasta meal the night before a big race. Eating a greater percentage of your calories from carbs for a pre-race meal is a good idea, but 43-year-old Julie Weiss of Marathon Goddess�suggests eating a similar meal to one you�d eat before your long runs. �Suddenly changing it up can make you wake up feeling all bloated and gassy from a ton of carbs�not how you want to feel before a race!� 5. Don�t try anything new. A good rule of thumb: Do everything exactly the same as you did before your long runs. In other words, as tempting as it may be, don�t try out a new outfit�the material could be chafing or tags could be irritating. It�s best to wear what you already know is comfortable. Also, stick with the same breakfast you normally eat before a long run. Now is not the time to see if you can stomach a cup of coffee instead of a sports drink. It�s not a bad idea to try out what you�ll eat or drink during the race while on several training runs, too. 6. Pace yourself. With all the excitement at the starting line, it�s easy to let the adrenaline get the best of you and go out too fast. Meggan Franks, 30, of Mom Against the Marathon (mfranks.blogspot.com) suggests starting the race 10 seconds per mile slower than your goal pace. �If you go out too fast, you�ll pay for it later!� she says. Avoid hitting the dreaded �wall,� slow down, and bank your energy for when you really need it during those last few miles. 7. Find a place to meet. Your friends and family will want to congratulate you, so before the race, designate a specific spot to meet after you cross the finish line. The crowds are huge at marathons, so this ensures that you�ll be able to find them quickly and easily for hugs and high-fives�and, of course, a celebratory meal. 8. Be prepared. A few days before the race, make a list of things to do on race morning, says blogger Kerrie Turcic, 35, of Mom vs. Marathon. �On race morning, it will probably be 4 a.m., and you�ll be a big ball of nerves. The list will help you focus and not forget anything important,� she says. Risdon also gets ready the night before. She lays out her clothes, pins on her bib and checks the weather. 9. Set other goals. It�s great to set a goal before your first marathon. For many people, that�s a certain time goal they want to achieve. But there are many factors you have little control over on race day�like the weather, crowds at the start or flare-ups of knee pain�that can affect your performance. Setting other goals (like simply finishing, not walking or feeling strong throughout) or setting several time goals (an �ideal� time you�d like to achieve, a more realistic time you�d still be happy with) can prevent feeling disappointment and make you feel like you rocked the race, no matter what. 10. Enjoy! You�ve worked so hard to prepare for the race: sacrificing Saturday mornings for long runs, waking up early to squeeze in a pre-work run and dealing with all of the aches and pains along the way. When the big day arrives, you deserve to have fun. Don�t forget to take a step back, enjoy the race and celebrate your accomplishment.Brought to you by: Spry Living

Military dogs do not have a good history of being adopted after they retire. However, ever since the Navy SEALs dog helped in the killing of Osama bin Laden, several people have be inquiring about pet adoption of pooches who serve the United States, according to the Huffington Post.
Every year, there are an estimated 300 dogs who retire from their military services and are looking for a new home. Since May 2, officials have received 400-plus adoption applications for these soon-to-be retired pooches, according to the media outlet.
"These dogs are fully trained, are worth probably $40,000 to $50,000 each at least, and it's a dog that has been saving American lives," the president of the U.S. War Dogs Association told the news source. "It's kind of a hero in a way."
These dogs help locate explosives, insurgents and drugs and have saved thousands of American's lives, the news provider reports.
According to the Humane Society, 19 percent of owned dogs in the United States were originally adopted from animal shelters.

I was nervous to order this product as I have never used flavored stevia before, but it is great! Not bitter at all and has wonderful vanilla flavor. I use it in coffee, baking, and add it to sparkling water with a splash of milk for sugar free cream soda. I also use it in my daily Apple Cider Vinegar "cocktails" to help the ACV go down. Quite tasty actually. Will be reordering soon.
Awesome Taste!

This stevia is very good and has a more vanilla taste than Sweet Leaf.
Traditional vanilla taste
Posted by Reviewer2265261 on Jul 21, 2009
Tastes like an actual vanilla bean rather than a synthetic vanilla flavor.
Posted by Reviewer1982885 on Aug 26, 2009
REALLY LOVE IT! The real vanilla extract in it makes all the difference.
Perfect for coffee and tea
Posted by Reviewer1144897 on Jun 17, 2011
I've tried other stevia products over the past few years in an effort to avoid artificial sweeteners, but they all left a horrid after-taste. Not this one. Finally, something good to put in my coffee!

Great product
Posted by Reviewer2008437 on Dec 20, 2010
Very good - like the alcohol free - not such a bite:)
Best Vanilla Stevia
Posted by Reviewer3315135 on Jan 01, 2011
I love NuNaturals liquid Stevia whether vanilla or plain. Love iherb's price also. No fault of iherb but I wish NuNaturals made a bigger bottle of their liquid product. I would not mind paying a little extra because I buy 8 bottles at a time! Thanks iherb!
Amazing Flavor
Posted by Reviewer1415989 on Jul 25, 2011
This sweetener is so good. It is terrific in coffee, and sparkling water to make "creme soda." My only complaint is that I go through it faster than a cheaper stevia -glycerite drops from another brand . I think it's because the vanilla flavor dilutes the sweetness just a little, so it takes more to sweeten. Still, I would buy again. It is a treat!

Swerb tried to get this going a few months back but I'll be damned if I can find the thread. Anyway, Strat updated their playoff format and it sounds good.
Four 6 team divisions. Four divisions winners. Four Wild card teams using best record.
Round 1: Divisions winners play Wild cards...Best of 5
Round 2: Semis...Best of 7
Round 3: Finals...Best of 7
Division winners...1 free credit
Finals Loser...1 more free credit
Finals winner...2 more free credits
I think it sounds pretty good. It might be a pipe dream to get 24 but I figured I might as well try.

Please contact your District Technical Assistance staff if you need assistance. If you have any questions, please contact Laura Weiler at 573-526-7901, or 800-392-8209, or firstname.lastname@example.com.
VOID Food Instruments: As a result of a State WIC Audit Finding, WOM ER# 3.04000-Food Instrument Accountability and Liability and WOM ER# 3.06400-Keying Food Instrument Disposition have been updated. Voided food instruments in the LWP's possession must be defaced as "void" and shredded immediately after they are keyed as void in MOWINS. The two updated policies are attached. Please contact your district administrative technical assistance staff with any questions. (TWO ATTACHMENTS)
WIC Record Destruction: Attached is the current letter on audit closure and WIC record destruction for records from Federal Fiscal Year 2006 (through September 30, 2006) and older, unless prohibited from doing so by other state or local restrictions. At the time of destruction all audits should be closed and there should be no findings. Please refer to WIC Operations Manual (WOM) ER # 1.06000 on Local WIC Provider Record Retention and Destruction. That policy will direct you on how to properly destroy WIC records and document the destruction. It will also provide you with a link to state law that covers records that your agency's legal counsel or governing body have determined to be medical records. Please contact your district administrative technical assistance staff with any questions. (ONE ATTACHMENT)
Peanut Butter Shortage: Please be aware that some WIC vendors (grocery stores) may have a shortage on store brand peanut butter. Missouri only allows store brands and thus the grocery stores are not allowed to substitute national brands of peanut butter if they are out of their store brand. If you have any questions, please contact your district TA team.
Save the Date - Fundamentals of Breastfeeding; an 18 Hour Course: The state WIC office is hosting the "Fundamentals of Breastfeeding; an 18 Hour Course" in three different locations throughout the state in 2012. This training is meant for nutritionists, nurses and peer counselors who need a comprehensive course to prepare them to assist breastfeeding mothers with normal lactation and common breastfeeding challenges. Dates and training sites are currently scheduled for Springfield (March 28th-30th) and Columbia (April 30th-May 2nd). There will also be a training in Kansas City in May, but this training has not yet been scheduled. Once we have a training site and dates for the Kansas City area, a registration form will be available in the WIC Updates. If you have any questions, please contact Kathy Mertzlufft at 573-526-4792 or by email at email@example.com.
Annual Needs Assessment Survey for Translated Resource Items: The State WIC office has been providing resource items in up to 16 different languages available for downloading from the DHSS website and in Spanish available from the DHSS warehouse. We would like to know if your agency has utilized these resource items between January 1, 2011 and November 30, 2011. Local WIC coordinators will receive an e-mail message with a link to the survey on December 7, 2011. Please complete the survey by December 31, 2011. The information obtained through this survey will be used for planning purposes. Therefore, each agency must complete the survey. If you have any questions/suggestions, please feel free to contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Results 226 to 230 of 460
Thread: Babies Due October-December 2013
August 6th, 2013 09:04 PM #226
Blek that drink was horrible!!! I had it 3 weeks ago, yuck yuck yuck! Never heard anything about the results, my midwife is kinda 'no news is good news', so must've come up with nothing to worry about. I see her tomorrow though (29 weeks!!!!!) so will double check then. Not sure how it all works in the states, but here in New Zealand we have monthly appointments up till 30ish weeks, and then fortnightly for a couple of weeks and then weekly right at the end.... tomorrow's appt signals the end of my monthly appointments and on to fortnightly - eep! only 11 weeks to go, where has the last 29 weeks gone?!Mummy of One

@annie I think its about the same here in the USA. With appointment every month until 30 or 32 weeks then every 2 weeks until 36 weeks then every week. I have a history of preterm labor so I have weekly starting at 33/34 weeks this this time so that I can have all the tests done earlier like group b strep and rh factors. Those test will probably be done at 32 weeks for me then again at 36 if I make it that far.
Is anyone else having heartburn? I'm having it constantly.
August 8th, 2013 11:19 PM #230
My heartburn has become an every day occurrence. And that's something I never get when not pregnant. I'm sticking to tums, lots of water, walking around when I can (tailbone pain is limiting that though), and even propping my upper body up with pillows at night if it's bad. So annoying!
Baby girl has really started kicking hard enough for me to feel it now, feels like a little tap dancing party in my lower belly. LOVE IT!Christine
Pregnancy #1: lost to mc, 10/11

I am so so lucky in terms of symptoms this pregnancy, and i can add heartburn to the list of things I haven't had (yet!). I've heard a big glass of milk is good for settling it though - no idea how true that actually is though.
Midwife appointment on thursday was all good BP is 110/80 so well withing a normal range, it was a bit elevated at the last one so that was a relief. If you'll recall though, my last appointment was the same week we moved house so its probably not surprising my BP was elevated - i actually posted about what a horrible experience that move was! Heartbeat is strong, and baby is still breech (heads up by my ribs & feet are pointing down), they're not concerned about that yet though as he still has plenty of time to move. Finally got the confirmation that it was a case of 'no news is good news' in terms of my glucose/urine & blood tests i did about a month ago, everything was normal so yay!
@christine - I love that feeling so much, always makes me smile!Mummy of One

I just wanted to check in and see how everyone's feeling? I'm ecstatic to finally be able to say Baby Girl is kicking up a storm, feeling it every day now, a few times a day. And I love it! She sometimes kicks my bladder - or uses it as a pillow still - but I know that will probably only get worse as she gets bigger so oh well. Just so happy to feel her moving regularly.
I'm also starting to feel huge. I don't think I am in reality, and it's definitely mostly belly, but I've never weighed this much in my life and it's just strange (and a bit scary). I've started registering and my friend has started planning a shower so it's all definitely becoming more real. It's pretty overwhelming to think about everything we still need to buy and all the stuff we need to do! So how are all of you doing?
ETA: The heartburn has been so bad the last couple of nights that it's actually woken me up in the middle of the night. I've had to sit up, eat some tums, and prop myself up to go back to sleep. Tolerable but definitely annoying!

Darlene M. Kallias
Darlene Myrna Kallias, 81, longtime Minot resident, died Monday, April 15, 2013, in Trinity Hospital in Minot with her family at her side.
Darlene was born Dec. 31, 1931, on the family farm near Palermo, the daughter of Arvid and Hulda (Halvorson) Johnson. She was raised on the family farm in Palermo Township of Mountrail County and educated at rural schools near her home. She moved with her family to Minot at the age of 11 and continued her education. She also helped at her mother's cafe over the next four years.
Darlene was united in marriage to John Kallias on May 8, 1949, at Bethany Lutheran Church in Minot. After their marriage, Darlene helped in the raising of her brother and sister for a period of time. Darlene and John would make their home in Minot, where they purchased their first house and would raise their six children.
The family moved to Williston and lived there from May 1961 to September 1964. Due to a fire at John's employment with the GTA facility, the family would be returning to Minot. In the fall of 1964, ground breaking took place for a new business. They became the new owners of Magic City Hatchery in south Minot. Darlene managed all aspects of the business office plus working side by side with Johnny in the hatchery operation. They operated the business for 34 years until the sale of the hatchery in 1997. John passed away on Aug. 18, 2012.
Darlene was a member of Bethany Lutheran Church, the Mother's Club and a former member of the Women of the Moose. She also was an avid fan of the Minnesota Twins. She crocheted and embroidered many, many beautiful and colorful items over the years, giving many as gifts to her family. She liked to read, enjoyed traveling and spent many hours cooking and baking her specialties for her family. Darlene and John enjoyed gardening followed by mother's fall canning with her daughters.
Darlene's loving family includes: children, Larry (Debbie) Kallias, of Minot, Gary Kallias, of Phoenix, Vicky (Don) Davison, of Minot, and Cheryl Borstad, of Minot; sons-in-law, Gary Wunderlich, of Minot, Wayne Borstad, of Minot; grandchildren, Brett (Jodi Ziegelman) Kallias, Alyssa (Jason) Proper, Heather and Erica Wunderlich, Amy (Ralf) Glowna, Cory (Elisabeth) Davison, Stacy (Josh) Christner, Tyler Borstad, Andrea (Darryl) Cross; eight great-grandchildren; sister, Shirley Zeller, of Roseville, Calif.; sisters-in-law, Jan Johnson, of Ulm, Mont., Leona Kallias, of Minot, Gloria Kallias, of Minot; stepsisters, Janice Brown, of Williston, Phyllis Fink, of Plentywood, Mont.; stepbrother, Steven (Corrine) Johnson, of Trenton; and numerous aunts, nieces, nephews and cousins.
Darlene was preceded in death by her parents; husband; son, John Allen Kallias, daughter, Kathy JoAnn Wunderlich; brothers, Eugene Johnson and Rick Johnson.
Celebration of Life service: Monday, April 22, 2013, at 1:30 p.m. in Bethany Lutheran Church, Minot.
Interment: Rosehill Memorial Park, Minot.
Visitation: Sunday, April 21, from noon to 5 p.m., in Thomas Family Funeral Home, Minot.
Memorials: In lieu of plants and flowers, memorials are preferred to Metigoshe Ministries, Bottineau, Bethany Lutheran Church, or Trinity Hospice, both Minot.

NRG hearing: Community voice is crucial
Our area has no excuses. Tonight, we must show up.
Tonight, area residents must appeal to the Public Service Commission at the public hearing in the Williams Center on the Fredonia State University campus that we believe NRG Energy Inc.'s plan to repower is the right fit for our community.
We believe so because of its presence as the largest taxpayer in the city of Dunkirk as well as the county. We believe so because NRG is an excellent community partner when it comes to unwavering support for our non-profits. We believe so because NRG is willing to commit $500 million to the Dunkirk plant – the largest private investment ever proposed for this county.
Most importantly, we also believe the NRG plant fulfills a reliability need that was sought by the Public Service Commission in its request for proposals. If something goes wrong on the grid or we are relying on wind and solar power for electricity, we want our plant to be there to ramp up quickly when the winds taper down or the sun sets so our power supply does not suffer.
National Grid is not offering that by importing power.
Turnout tonight is crucial. If we can attend Music on the Pier, Buffalo Bills or Sabres games or high school events in large numbers, we can and must attend this three-hour once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
This is not only about NRG. This is about a city and region's future. Everyone who lives here – from Hanover to Ripley and Forestville to Jamestown – has a stake in this.
We have seen enough business and industry leave in the last 30 years that did not want to invest in this area. NRG has already invested millions into the plant – and is willing to invest millions more.
Tonight is it. No more second chances. No more excuses.
We must show up.

Public hearing on budget set for Stanhope
STANHOPE -The Stanhope City Council dispensed with its agenda in just 45 minutes at its monthly session last week.
A resolution was passed that set the public hearing for the 2013-14 operating budget for 6:30 p.m. on March 11, during the March City Council meeting.
Other business on the brief agenda was concerned with the electric utility wholesale electric contract. A consulting firm from Lincoln, Nebraska has been engaged to prepare a request for proposal for wholesale electricity beginning January 1, 2014. Requests were sent to 12 companies.
After receiving all proposals, the consulting firm recommended that the city select heartland Consumers Power District of Madison, South Dakota to provide electrical energy for ten years. Heartland will supply technical assistance and financial assistance, with the possible construction of a new power substation and system conversion.
Plans are to review the report from the consulting firm, with further discussions to take place before a contract is signed. At the March City Council meeting, the clerk will seek authority to begin negotiations with Heartland on wholesale power cost and financing proposals.
City Clerk Ron McKenzie detailed the 2013-14 operating budget for the council before the meeting adjourned.

Virginia Inmate Ophelia De'lonta appears closer to getting a sex change paid for by taxpayers.
The U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that De'lonta is entitled to a hearing to determine whether the Virginia Department of Corrections violated her constitutional rights by not allowing her to be evaluated for the operation.
The Appeals Court ruling does not decide the merits of De'lonta's 8th Amendment violation claim, and it doesn't suggest that sex change surgery is the remedy.
De'lonta could become the first in the nation to have state-funded sex change surgery to treat gender identity disorder.

Saturday night. MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
I had Marquez beating Manny once already and the other fight being a draw.
I like Marquez to win the third installment.
I also think the reason Mayweather came out with a date for a possible mega-fight is because he thinks Marquez will win and he won't have to fight Manny.
Floyd is a business man and is very smart in everything he does, boxing related of course. He wants to stay perfect and has avoided Manny for too long. I love watching Floyd fight, he's the best defensive fighter of all time in my opinion.
If Manny wins Saturday and Mayweather/Pacquiao doesn't happen, then all respect I have for Floyd as a fighter will be gone.
