ANHC entirely and exclusively
deals with
Ayurveda and
Yoga in Goa-India.
ANHC is felicitated with-
"National Award in Health Care Excellence"
The Ayurvedic Natural Health Centre, Goa is a well equipped:
The Ayurved Clinic Goa India is a full fledged treatment centre with emenities of expert Ayurveda doctors, ayurvedic para medical nursing staff, ayurveda pharmacy, panchakarma clinic, treatment section, Kashaya dept to prepare herbal formulation & more important ayurvedic restuarant serving healthy meals & yogashala to practice yoga while undergoing treatment.
The main clinical setup is at Ayurvedic Centre Saligao Goa India.
Ayurveda, the ancient
science of health means "The Knowledge of Life". Inspired by nature
itself, the unique and holistic science, addresses the mind, body
and soul simultaneously. Thus, becoming a system that not only cures
diseases, but works to help people arrive at perfect health.
To deliver the advantages
of this universal remedy, in complete harmony with nature herself
evolved - ANHC. A unique concept which sets you in a restful and
relaxing ambience, while the ageless wonders of Ayurveda, are applied
by highly qualified professionals.
Discover the power of
Ayurveda in one of the very few places in the world - Goa, where
it is still practiced with absolute authenticity and dedication.
Completely natural, Ayurveda perhaps is the safest medical system
on Earth.
In therapeutic package
the content and duration of the treatment will be solely decided
by the physician. The Therapeutic Packages are designed by Ayurveda Physicians at ANHC Goa India on Consultation, Examination and determination of Prakruti i.e. Body Constitution.
Eminent physicians with
generations of expertise behind them will do the diagnosis and will
decide the treatment scheduled that matches your body constitution
and mental make-up.
All over the world today the progress
of man has resulted in the destruction of nature.
The noxious chemical pollutants, deforestation, depletion of the
ozone layer etc. Another aspect of the same thing is the way we
are aggressively trying to interfere with nature by tampering with
the human body. Due to the fast pace of life we
do not allow the body itself to fight back, and
therefore to wait it out. The indiscriminate use of man-made drugs
can alter the natural body chemistry to such an extent that in some
cases one would wonder whether it wouldn't have been better to have
just left the person alone.
On the other hand, having gone so far, it is not practical to
go back to base, or to ban drugs altogether, for there is no doubt
that in emergency situations chemical drugs and systems could be
vitally required. Also surgery could be the only life saving solution
in certain cases.
Yet, in frequently recurring ailments, it is heartening to remember
that Nature herself can cure, and that we can do ourselves some
good by giving her a first chance.
Ayurveda from time immemorial aimed to cultivate a healthy
respect for Nature and her secrets. The effort was to discover
Natural principles, which we could adapt our own lifestyle
to incorporate. And they discovered that untold, almost miraculous
health benefits could be achieved simply by following Nature's own
The age-old set of exercises known in the west as "yoga"
offers a significant variety of proven health benefits.
Yoga increases the efficiency of the heart and slows the respiratory rate, improves fitness, lowers blood pressure, promotes relaxation, reduces stress and allays anxiety. It also serves
to improve coordination, posture, flexibility, range of motion,
concentration, sleep and digestion. It can also be used as supplementary
therapy for conditions as diverse as cancer, diabetes, arthritis, asthma, migraine etc., and help to combat
addictions such as smoking . It is not, in itself, a cure
for any medical ailment. But as part of the well-known Dean Ornish
program of diet and exercise, it has contributed to the reversal
of heart disease.
Regular Yoga and Meditation sessions in Goa are
conducted by ANHC, Goa India every morning. If you are traveling to Goa
on a relaxing holiday, experience a holistic life altering Yoga
Program at ANHC Goa and be healthy forever.

Graduate School moves to Clio Hall
Posted November 3, 2005; 06:11 p.m.
The offices of the Graduate School are now consolidated in one central location, Clio Hall.
The deans and their staffs, previously located on the second floor of Nassau Hall, are now on the first floor of Clio. Occupying the lower level of Clio are graduate admissions and graduate alumni relations, which had been on the third floors of Nassau Hall and Stanhope Hall, respectively.
Clio Hall underwent extensive reconstruction over the past year in anticipation of this move. Besides renovating the interior, the project brought the building into handicap compliance. While the main entrance to the Graduate School offices is through the doors on the north side of the building, which face Nassau Hall, a wheelchair ramp off McCosh Walk leads to an addition to the building that includes an elevator.
The Graduate School plans to hold an open house in the near future to welcome students, faculty and staff to its new location. All phone numbers for the staff remain the same.

Last week, the Dow Jones Industrials broke its four-week losing streak. This week, it's looking to build on its gains.
Futures contracts on the Dow Jones Industrial Average have risen 33 points this morning, while the S&P 500 has gained 3.7 points. The Nasdaq has advanced 14.25 points.
Not much has changed over the weekend. Investors are still pondering the impact of Friday's disappointing jobs report and wondering what the heck will happen with Syria. But economic data out of China–its exports rose 7.2% from a year ago, beating forecasts of 5.5%–and Japan's–its economy grew at a 3.8% clip during the second quarter, up from a preliminary reading of 2.6%–have helped give markets a lift this morning.
Hi-Tech Pharmacal (HITK) reported a profit of 44 cents a share, in line with analyst forecasts of 44 cents.
MDC Holdings (MDC) has gained 1.6% to $28.10 after it was upgraded to Neutral from Sell at Citigroup.
J.C. Penney (JCP) has gained 1.5% to $14.48, as reports circulate that that privately held Neiman Marcus could be sold for $6 billion.
Quicksilver (ZQK) has risen 2.3% to $7.01 after being upgraded to Outperform from Neutral at Credit Suisse.
Halliburton (HAL) has dropped 0.7% to $49.20 after it was downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform by Wells Fargo.

NMR signal and MRI contrast
由 Denis Hoa
- To describe how the NMR signal is recorded
- To define the free induction decay
- To explain differences between T2 and T2*
- To describe the role of the 180° rephasing pulse
- To state the stages of a spin echo sequence
- To understand the relation between TR, TE and T1-, T2-, and DP signal weightings
- To give common values of T1, T2, TR and TE times
- Coils are only sensitive to variations of transverse magnetization vector. After a 90° RF pulse, the Free Induction Decay (FID) signal is oscillating at resonance frequency and signal enveloppe is a decay curve described as an exponential curve, depending on tissue-specific spin-spin relaxation and static field inhomogeneities. This decay is characterized by time constant T2*. T2* is always shorter than T2.
- The 180° RF pulse reverses dephasing due to static field inhomogeneities (T2* effects) but not random spin-spin relaxation (T2 effects, tissue-specific). Spin Echo sequence requires an excitation pulse (90° RF pulse) and a 180° rephasing pulse. Time between 90° pulse and 180° pulse is TE/2. MR Signal is acquired at echo time TE, when signal of the echo is the strongest. The signal enveloppe joining maximums of echos after 180° RF pulses is corresponding to the pure T2 decay curve.
- The 90° - 180° RF pulses sequence must be repeated as many times as the number of lines in the data matrix. The time between each 90° RF pulse (excitation pulse) is called Repetition Time (TR).
- You must keep in mind that tranverse relaxation (transverse magnetization decay, producing MR signal) and longitudinal relaxation (longitudinal magnetization recovery) are simultaneous. The longer the TR is, the more longitudinal magnetization will recover.
- With a spin echo sequence :
- TR modifies T1-weighting : the longer is the TR, the less T1-weigthed the image is
- TE modifies T2-weighting : the shorter is the TE, the less T2-weigthed the image is
- A short TR and a short TE give a T1-weighted image.
- A long TR and a long TE give a T2-weighted image.
- A long TR and a short TE give a PD-weighted image.

My first Advogato post of the new year. For posterity's sake, as any other reason is mostly pointless with my current threshold.
My new year's resolution: get my blogging software approaching something useful before school starts. I'm still not completely automated, as I'm still manually generating the web page from xslt (as opposed to having the script do it and upload it). Once I'm done, I should have something quite capable for expressing myself with.
Having your diary entries censored from the world sucks. Of course, if it motives you to create something that better suits your needs, there's probably some good in it.
And for posterity's sake, I'll say that the when the Kernigheze thought they were shutting me up, they were actually making me stronger and more determined.

From Conservapedia
(Redirected from Wroclaw)
Wrocław (German: Breslau, Czech: Vratislav, Latin: Vratislavia or Wratislavia, Yiddish: ברעסלוי) is the major city of the region of Lower Silesia, situated on the Oder river. The city along with the region was historically ruled by the Polish dynasty of Piasts, then Austrian Habsburg Monarchy until the area was lost to Prussia after the War of the Austrian Succession. The city flourished under Prussian and later German rule. Following the Second World War, the city became part of Poland and is now the fourth largest city in Poland.

The 2012 Who Do You Think You Are? Live show at Olympia is now becoming a bit of a distant memory but it is worth reviewing this year's show and previous years. We have now been at several of the shows and have seen how it has developed into biggest fixture in the genealogy and family history world. JGSGB went to the first ever show and we were quite astounded by the level of interest in Jewish Genealogy. People came to us with details of an ancestor who was or might have been Jewish, anxious to find out if they were. Others came with detailed family trees wanting to know how to take things backwards into Europe. The level of interest in Jewish genealogy at the show did not diminish after the first show. We have found more and more people visiting our stand each year, with the queries mainly being of the same type.
After the first show, we decided to have tables rather than a big stand, making it easier to afford to attend. We also now have a set location at the show, which on the face of it doesn't seem that promising – in a corner away from the majority of other societies and the away from the entrance – however, it is right next to the entrance of one of the main toilets and next to the Pizza Express outlet. This guarantees a lot of passing traffic!
The JGSGB approach to being at WDYTYA? Live has always been proactive. We don't wait for the people visiting our stand to initiate contact, we ask open questions like "do you have any Jewish ancestors?", "is there any specific area you are looking for ancestors in?", or simply "can we help you?". This approach means that we can help people who have very little idea of where to start with researching Jewish ancestry. It also gives us an opportunity to sell the benefits of joining JGSGB or buying one of our Jewish Ancestors Guides (www.jgsgb.org.uk/catalog/shop). We also provide a lot of verbal information and do on-line searches there and then. There are lots of funny enquiries, if we had a pound for every time someone asked, in all innocence, "do you think my ancestor was Jewish? He/she had a a large nose and dark skin.", we would make a lot of money. This is something that we might take offence at but the enquirers are very sincere about finding out if they have Jewish roots. A lot of time is spent letting people down gently by explaining that their ancestor probably wasn't Jewish, even with a first name like Benjamin or a last name like Isaacs. Quite a few people go away disappointed at not having Jewish ancestors. What we are doing is educating people about what makes someone Jewish and how to establish the fact through vital records.
The stand is staffed by JGSGB members on a rota basis. The volunteers get the chance to use their knowledge and experience to help visitors to our stand. We also get the opportunity to explore interesting Jewish genealogies, working with the person to find areas that will take their search forward. It has been very useful for me personally to learn on the spot where to find specific records and useful websites. It is also an opportunity to be able to use knowledge gained from attending JGSGB educational events and talks and also the International Conferences to help people.
JGSGB manages to recruit about 20 new members at each show and also sell dozens of guides and also other people's books about Jewish genealogy and history.
There is a lot of work done in preparing for the show, most of it falling on the shoulders of JGSGB Stand Manager, Jeanette Rosenberg, and then the physical setting up, falling a lot on my shoulders and one or two others. After a few years doing it we now have it down to a fine art!
It is worth the effort, as we cover our costs and make a little profit on top, and more importantly, we get to help so many people. JGSGB will be at the show again on 2013. Hope to see you there.

By:Melanie Trichler of MnM's Bulldogs
First of all, I wish more people would ask this question before they jump into breeding!
My male will just turned four years old in April, and he has been used for stud service twice so far. He is an American & Canadian champion, and I have had complete health screenings performed on him. Being a responsible breeder involves time and research, as your main purpose for breeding should be to improve the breed according to the standard.
First, I suggest reading and studying the bulldog standard. This is available in pretty much every bulldog book, on the Bulldog Club of America website (http://www.thebca.org), and the American Kennel Club website (http://www.akc.org), among other places. The breed standard is very detailed about what the perfect bulldog should be, however it is often interpreted differently depending on whom you talk to.
Once you have read and re-read the standard, try to make an honest assessment of your dog according to the standard. The perfect bulldog does not exist. Every bulldog has a fault of some kind. The purpose for breeding is to try to produce the most perfect bulldog possible. For this reason, you would only want to breed dogs that compliment each other's strengths and weaknesses. Never breed two dogs together that have the same faults.
Health is also an extremely important factor. As you probably know, the bulldog breed is generally prone to many health problems. Obviously, an unhealthy dog should not be used in a breeding program. If your dog is healthy, always receiving a clean bill of health during his general vet checks, he may be a good breeding prospect (health-wise). Most bulldog breeders don't do further health screening prior to breeding, but if you are familiar with any other dog breeds, you'll know that many other breeds screen for dysplasia problems (hip, elbow, etc), eye problems, heart problems, etc. There are a few bulldog breeders that do some screening, but I can only think of a handful nation-wide.

Billing FAQs
When are the bills mailed?
Who can I call if I have a question about my bill?
Will my financial aid appear on my bill?
Do meal plans vary in cost?
When are the bills mailed?
Bills for tuition, room, board, and fees are mailed by the Bursar's Office twice a year. The fall semester bills are mailed in July and due in August. The spring semester bills are mailed in December and due in January. Payment is due in full by the date on the bill unless you have contracted with the TMS monthly payment plan. Payment may be made in person using cash or check. Payment may also be made by credit card or check through Tuition Management Systems. The bills will be mailed to the student's home address unless we are notified of another billing address.
Who can I call if I have a question about my bill?
If you have any questions about your bill, please call the Bursar's Office at (978) 837-5105. We encourage you to call or stop by any time you have a billing question.
Will my financial aid appear on my bill?
The bill will include pending financial aid that has been awarded and accepted as of the date of the bill. Financial aid is awarded on an annual basis, and one half is credited to the student account each semester. If the student receives a scholarship from an outside organization you may deduct it from the amount due on your statement. Please forward a copy of the scholarship award letter to the Bursar's Office. Please note: you must also notify the Financial Aid Office if you are receiving an outside scholarship, as this is counted as a financial resource.
The bill may not include credit for Stafford or PLUS loans for which you may be eligible because federal regulations prohibit disbursement of funds without a signed promissory note. You may deduct one half of the loan amount for which you are eligible from your bill less a 1% origination fee for Stafford loans and 4% for PLUS loans.
If your financial aid does not appear accurately on your bill, please contact the Financial Aid Office via email at email@example.com or by calling (978) 837-5186.
Do meal plans vary in cost?
All standard meal plans (19/13/9) are the same price and come with varying bonus points each semester. Learn more about each meal plan on the Dining Services page.

- great city access, as described below
- 5 minutes walk from Lewisham town centre, restaurants, etc.
ROOMS (all included with this price):
- 1 Master bedroom with IKEA Double bed + En-suite Bathroom
- 1 Double bedroom with John Lewis Double bed
- 1 Family bathroom
- 1 modern kitchen
- 1 Living room/3rd bedroom with Double IKEA Sofa bed and a single Airbed if necessary

TRANSPORT Links:
CITY CENTRE: Southeastern Trains come every 5 minutes, and it is
- 8 minutes to London Bridge
- 15 minutes to Waterloo / Southbank and to Cannon Street / Bank Station in the city
- 20 minutes to Charing Cross / Trafalgar Square / National Gallery
- 20 minutes to Victoria
- so Soho, Picadilly & Oxford Street etc. are half an hour from our door!
DLR (Light Rail) come every 10 minutes:
- 8 minutes to Greenwich Village / Cutty Sark
- 15 minutes DLR to Canary Wharf / Stratford OLYMPIC park
- 23 minutes to Bank / city
WALKING distance (or bus/DLR) to beautiful Greenwich Park
We are in Zone 2. The train costs just the same or less as the underground (Tube). Off peak is £1.80, peak time is £2.20 and it all works on the oyster card system, like the Tube :)
I recommend buying an 'Oyster Card' when you get to the airport for travelling in London
- children under 11 can travel for FREE on the DLR and Tube
Prie depends on number of people and length of stay - generally the system will give you an accurate price :)
It includes bed linens, Wifi, towels, bills, council tax, and sharing the kitchen, and using the washing machine.
- small Tesco shop: downstairs, 1 minute away
- Big supermarkets, Tesco, Sainsbury's 5 minutes away
- great fresh market 5 (!) minutes away on the high street
- Maggie's Cafe, ALL YOU CAN EAT BREAKFAST for £6 - 5 minutes away
- plenty of restaurants and cafes in the neighbourhood
A couple of pointers:
Check-in time:
As I work full time, please arrive in London early enough to check in during social hours, latest by 10:30 pm. If you want to arrive any later, please discuss it with me first. In general, if you arrive to the apartment after 10:30 pm there is a surcharge of £60 even if the delay was not your fault. This must be paid in cash before the keys are handed over to you.
(On a side-note: the £60 late-fee is equivalent (or more) than taking a taxi from the airport - if you are arriving in the evening, it could easily be worth it to take a cab and travel in comfort rather than public transport and risking a late fee.)
House rulesPlease leave the apartment as you found it, and there is absolutely no smoking allowed in the apartment. (If anyone does leave a smell of smoke I will have to ask them to pay for professional cleaning of any areas affected which costs £150.)

Reviews of this property
We had a great stay at Maggie. Beautiful rooms, the facilities are more than adequate. From spoon, fork, knife over plate up to the iron and clothes horse everything is there. Maggie is very organized and helps with questions of any kind, we therefore found the service very good. Great access to the City of London. The apartment is definitely recommendable!
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt bei Maggie. Schöne Räume, die Ausstattung ist mehr als ausreichend. Von Löffel, Gabel, Messer über Teller bis hin zum Bügeleisen und Wäscheständer ist alles vorhanden. Maggie ist sehr organisiert und hilft bei Fragen jeder Art. Den Service fanden wir deshalb ausgesprochen gut. Super Anbindung an die Londoner City. Die Wohnung ist auf jeden Fall weiter zu empfehlen!
Our landlady Maggie was very friendly and helpful. She even warned us about every closed public transport connection via e-mail. Further was the flat in a clean condition and the bathrooms were hygienic. In addition to this is the apartment only 500 m away from the railway and DLR station. You can go to the central of london in about 25 min. I will share maggie and her apartment in our german college for the next student groups.
Our stay in London was great. Maggie is a fantastic host and very helpful. The apartment is really big and comfortable providing more than enough space. Everything was quite new and the apartment looks cheerful and clean. There is really everything you need around the corner. A bus station is located directly in front of the building and very good train service is not far either. You can also find great restaurants and a chilly atmosphere a few minutes ago in Blackheath. I would come back every time. Thanks again!
Great communication and help, always fast and friendly responses. Everything worked fine, the apartment was great and clean! Just great, always happy :)
Super Kommunikation und Hilfe, immer schnelle und nette Antworten. Alles hat einwandfrei funktioniert, die Wohnung war der Hammer und sauber! Einfach Klasse, immer wieder gerne :)
Maggie war eine sehr nette Vermieterin. Sie hat uns schon vor der Reise viele nützliche Informationen gegeben. Die Wohnung ist sehr groß und hell und es gibt in der Nähe Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für den täglichen Bedarf. Direkt an der Straße gibt es verschiedene öffentliche Verkehrsmittel, mit denen man in Kürze die Innenstadt erreicht. Es ist ein idealer Ausgangspunkt für Sightseeing in London. Wir können die Wohnung jederzeit weiterempfehlen.
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

How you managed to miss these in the article, I do not know. The subtext is crystal clear. It's not even subtext. It's apparent text. Men hold the technical knowledge, women lack it and need to have it made-to-work or explained-to-them by men. Women are grandmothers, mothers, girlfriends and other. Not us.
This attitude is apparent in every corner of discourse I've ever seen in this community. It's broken beyond belief in this regard. Many people, men and women alike, have a hard time with the social environment. I am one of these people. These days I'm usually too repelled by the social environment to participate. If you ever felt I might have been a valuable contributor to anything, consider that fact.

Thread: Anyone experienced with Kribs?
Anyone experienced with Kribs?
A little prelude: I've been attempting to get Bolivian rams for a while unsuccessfully. Now I'm thinking of just giving up and getting Kribensis. However, one thing that has been worrying me are mixed reports of Krib's behavior during spawning and fry raising. Many people say they get really aggressive and harm their community tank mates, while others say that they remain peaceful. Does anyone on the AC have experience with spawning Kribs in community settings? Any advice or tip is greatly appreciated.
First of all, raising kribs in a community tank is nearly impossible. If you are indeed to breed them, please provide separate tank, and your question will be resolved. Second, even though each fish has it own unique "character", just like people do, aggressive behaviour is normal and natural for any spawn protective species, please accept it.
I don't want to breed them, but since I would like a pair spawning will likely be inevitable.
The question was a bit stupidly worded. you are completely right in that all cichlids will defend their young. however,
it is indisputable that many keep dwarf cichlids in community tanks, and that some dwarfs are more aggressive than others. my question
would be whether kribs are one of the more peaceful dwarf cichlids or not.

I think that depends on the personality of the fish. I've been told that Kribs will for sure be aggressive. But how aggressive they will be is based on the individual. They can either keep a small safe zone or take over an entire tank or any range in between.
I just had a pair that spawned for me for the first time this past week. Today I noticed free swimming fry for the first time. I counted 32-35 of them. Yes, the parents of aggressive, very aggressive. But luckily for me the range of aggression is only about 6-8" diameter. I have standard 55 gallon tank. They stop giving chase after that and return to their young. Both parents are equally protective. I think the key is with their companions. They should be curious enough to attempt for come near but need to be speedy enough for the escape. This will keep the parents busy defending their area which comes natural to them, and keeps them from attacking each other. I haven't had any deaths or injuries yet.
Prior to them spawning, they were both very peaceful and colorful fish. Especially the female.
Now I got your point :) I kept rams and cribs in community tanks, and since cribs were super-productive and ready to spawn each month with all related consequences, their behaviour was more aggressive. It seems to me that 99% of crib's behaviour is subject to reproduction issues: if they are not spawning - they look for a a potentially good place for it, and this process is endless. Rams were rather indifferent with rare spawning. Therefore, compared to others, cribs might seem more aggressive, but not fatally ofcourse.
don't get a pair?
nothing wrong with getting a single krib.
that is my plan for my 40b set up.
If they have their own area i have found generally they are able to get the fry free swimming without too much damage to other fish. Unfortunately chances of survival of the fry are close to zero after that. I have only raised krib fry once in community and that pair was particularly careful and the tank was heavily planted. Since then have been 100% unsuccessful with several other pairs that i keep just because they are a great fish in breeding colours. If you don't have a specific buyer its often great to see them dig, lay and protect and obviously the colours are great too. Generally they will chases intruders far enough away from their cave and leave them, by a persistent father may do a bit more damage in a smaller thank6ft Australian Fresh water turtle tank - 2 macleay river turtles, numerous guppy at varying stages of development.
5ft 150gal planted discus tank - 8 discus, 10 cardinal tetras, 10 rummnose, 6 albino cories, and breeding RCS in tank sump and just about everywhere everything done from scratch, filtration and stand tank
journal @
So here is the question... if you dont care about spawning in particular, why in the world are you getting a pair? You are risking increasing agression and overall health of other fish when you could have a very calm peaceful fish in its stead... I think the aquarists "want" is outweighing the rational..
Its common and I have been known to do it in the past but It can be a serious issue for you. If you decide to go forward, I would just recommend having a plan B. I had a pair of spawning Kribs in a 29gal, they did great with their group of guppy dithers. I have successfully gotten 100+ fry from them over their spawns however they are aggressive when spawning, but the tank mates stay at the top no matter what so it works out.

The answer of this question depends on a number of factors. Most importantly tank size and how well it is decorated /planted. The exact species of krib also make a big difference put I assume you are referring to P pulcher, the common krib. The parents will show agression but whether or not this will be a problem depends on the factors mentioned above. I have never lost a fish due to damage from kribs even though I kept a large number of pairs in a large number of different community tanks. They are a fish I allways want to keep in one of my tanks if possible.
Unlike many other posters here i think they are better kept in pairs. The colors will be more vibrant, they will show of their color more and you get to se more behaviours.
Last edited by William; 01-28-2013 at 05:49 PM.Do as I say. Not as I do.
What I am saying is I don't want to breed kribs and sell fry, but I also don't want to miss out on the
interesting behaviors, increased colors, etc that a pair of cichlids would have over a lone one. my tank is 65 gallons with a footprint of
3ft. by 1.5 ft, currently is moderately planted and if all goes well, will eventually be heavily planted.
thanks William! you've really convinced me. If I can't find bolivians in the next few weeks kribs it will be.

http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports_football_dolphins/2010/07/progression-or-regression-dolphins-secondary.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+sports%2FMiamiDolphinsweblog+%28Miami+Dolphins+|+Sun-Sentinel+Blogs%29THE NEW: Five rookies were added. CB Nolan Carroll (fifth-round pick), S Reshad Jones (fifth-round pick), CB A.J. Wallace (undrafted rookie), DB Ross Weaver (undrafted rookie), SSJonathon Amaya (undrafted rookie) are all competing to make the 53-man roster.
THE DEPTH CHART: CB � Vontae Davis, Will Allen, Evan Oglesby, Nolan Carroll, A.J. Wallace; CB � Sean Smith, Jason Allen, Nate Ness, Ross Weaver; FS � Chris Clemons, Reshad Jones; SS - Yeremiah Bell, Tyrone Culver, Jonathon Amaya
THE BREAKDOWN: The Dolphins have kept five or six cornerbacks and four safeties on the 53-man roster the past two seasons. They generally keep two more defensive backs on the practice squad, and this season likely will see the same.
There are a tone of new faces in the Dolphins secondary, but none of them are established NFL players. And even fewer have a respectable body of work (maybe Reshad Jones does) which hints it�s a certainty they�ll be immediate contributors at this level. Even though replacing Nate Jones with a healthy Will Allen should upgrades the nickel spot, it�s irresponsible to justify that this unit has progressed.
While Davis and Smith will likely hopefully improve now that they�ve got a year�s worth of experience under their belt, it�s highly likely that Wilson�s replacement at free safety (Clemons, Reshad Jones or Culver) will experience some growing pains as a first-year starter. Until one of this unit�s young newcomers proves he can contribute more to the secondary than Jason Allen has the past few seasons the Dolphins secondary has to go into the regression category. But there�s tremendous potential for growth across the board.

OXFORD – Oxford's 2012 Double Decker Festival was named "Best Public Event" in the Creative Events category at the Association of Destination Management Executives International annual conference in Montreal.
"Our event partner, Leo Events (that helps us with staging, booking, etc.) nominated us and we won," said Mary-Kathryn Herrington, Oxford's director of tourism. "Many very large destinations were honored at these awards, so this is quite an honor for Oxford and the Double Decker Festival."
Winners in other categories represented destinations like Chicago, Lake Tahoe, Las Vegas, Nashville and New Orleans.
A global panel of judges from several travel industry groups reviewed entries for more than 90 events.
"Double Decker Arts Festival brought visitors and residents to a celebration of music, food and arts on the picturesque Courthouse Square in Oxford, Mississippi," said the award summary. "A program of the Oxford CVB, [Double Decker's] goal was to increase awareness and appreciation of the arts and music in the Oxford and surrounding areas, to elevate Oxford's overall visibility to tourists, and to distinctively celebrate the 175th anniversary of the city.
"Leo Events produced the 17th annual festival drawing over 55,000 guests to the free event while implementing an online ticket system, improving crowd control and introducing upscale food vendors to the event."
While this may be Double Decker's most prominent award, it is far from its first. It has been named in "Top 100 Events" by American Bus Association, "Top 20 Events" by the Southeast Tourism Association, Best Fair or Festival by Mississippi Magazine and Best Event Program by Southeast Regional Festivals and Events, along with numerous local and regional awards.

For me EMT gel on the spots then next time tighten the collar more so it won't rock on the neck.
Hadn't thought about EMT Gel. For that matter, they make an EMT Gel spray product that might work even better.
However, what I use on hotspots is a product called Coolspot 2000. It's a holistic product made from grapefuit seeds. I've had hotspots resolved in a matter of 2-3 days with this product. It's available on the web.

Best thing I have ever found for hotspots is a mix 1:1 of listerine and baby oil
Trimming or shaving the hair in the area so you get some air flow and drying helps too. Making sure you have the collar good and tight prevents hot spots, especially if the dog is wearing the collar for long periods of time and/or in wet conditions.

I' have an old shepherd mix that used to get hot spots all the time. I would shave the area around it then use gold bond or baby powder to help it dry out. Once dry wash the area and use some sort of antiseptic to help it heal. Not sure if that's the best way to go about it, but it worked for me!
Chris B. (somewhere in New York)
Don't know much about treatments.
To prevent it from happening next time, make sure the collar is tight as others have said. Another option is to move the collar(receiver) on the dogs neck a couple of times. I usually put the collar on the right side of the neck in the morning, after a couple of hours I rotate it to the left.

ean Little's most recent book, The Sweetest one of all, is a picture book for very young children and their parents. In it, barnyard animal babies ask their mothers who they are and each of them is told that he or she is the sweetest one of all. The book ends with a human mother telling her little one the same thing. And getting a loving hug in response. The playful text should continue to delight both children and adults even after many readings.
The colourful illustrations by Marisol Sarrazin are endearing and filled with lively detail. Each will hold small readers spellbound.

Ford Uses Carbon Fiber Hood to Reduce Vehicle Weight, Increase Fuel Efficiency

Ford's carbon fiber hood prototype
(Source: Ford Motor Company)
The new carbon fiber hood prototype weighs more than 50 percent less than the standard steel versions, yet is five times as strong as steel
Ford is looking to make its vehicles even more fuel efficient with a new prototype
carbon fiber
hood that weighs less than traditional versions.
The Ford European Research Centre partnered with Dow Automotive Systems in the Hightech.NRW research project to develop the carbon fiber hood prototype. Ford also collaborated with the Institute of Automotive Engineering at RWTH Aachen University, Toho Tenax, Composite Impulse, Henkel, IKV (Institute of Plastics Processing) and Evonik.
The new carbon fiber hood prototype weighs more than 50 percent less than the standard steel versions, yet is five times as strong as steel. The carbon fiber is also twice as stiff as steel and will reduce the weight of Ford vehicles by about 750 pounds by the end of the decade.
"It's no secret that
reducing a vehicle's weight
can deliver major benefits for fuel consumption, but a process for fast and affordable production of carbon fibre automotive parts in large numbers has never been available," said Inga Wehmeyer, advanced materials and processes research engineer for Ford European Research Centre. "By partnering with materials experts through the Hightech.NRW research project, Ford is working to develop a solution that supports cost efficient manufacturing of carbon fibre components."
The project started in 2010 and is expected to continue until September 2013. In that time frame, Ford and its partners set out to develop cost effective methods for carbon fiber manufacturing; reduce individual component production times; reduce the amount of finishing work required; meet requirements for painting, and reduce the component weight by at least 50 percent.
"There are two ways to reduce energy use in vehicles," said Paul Mascarenas, Ford chief technical officer and vice president of Research and Innovation. "Improving the conversion efficiency of fuels to motion and reducing the amount of work that powertrains need to do. Ford is tackling the conversion problem primarily through downsizing engines with EcoBoost and electrification while mass reduction and improved aerodynamics are keys to reducing the workload."
So far, the outcome has been a prototype carbon fiber hood that weighs more than 50 percent less than standard steel. The carbon fiber hood was placed in a
Ford Focus
at the Composites Europe event in Dusseldorf, Germany. Early testing suggests that it will meet Ford's standards for dent resistance, crash performance and stiffness.
Increasing fuel efficiency is crucial right now, considering the White House finalized the
54.5 MPG Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards
for 2017-2025 model years back in August of this year. The new standards aim to cut oil consumption/dependency, greenhouse gas emissions and encourage green vehicle adoption.

Anthony did great job for a fair price. Next time I will definetely ring ahead to check he will be in the garage before setting out.
Perfect job without any additional cost. On time with the good price. One of my head light was not working. They fix it without any additional cost. Definitely I will use this garage in the future. Highly recommended.
Could Never Recommend this Garage - Agreed price was £50 for diagnosing issue. Then Anthony said he could recalibrate lock if he had an extra 3hrs. They closed in 30mins when I collected car he wanted £150. He said he recalibrated lock however it was gauranteed to fail! So why recalibrate? Started car no lights, worse experience ever..stay well clear.
a great friendly service, saved me over £800 on a main dealer quote by inspecting what needed to be replaced rather than fitting a new DMF along with the clutch kit as per the main dealer. contacted me about worn brakes also and quoted a very reasonable price. All the work was done to a high standard and on time ..
Excellent mechanic, great work, great price, will always use this mechanic from now on.
Fantastic ! Adam was fast efficient and very friendly used a very good brand replacement part Excellent service and highly recommended. Adam is now my mechanic of choice. Thanks very much for helping me get back on the road the work. Car is working perfectly, now. Thank you.
Better service than any other garage I have ever been to. Don't think you will get a better mechanic in London. Talked through all the problems and diagnosed the car fully. Very happy with the whole job and would use again.

Selected this garage to do my brake pads, disk and sensors on my Bmw 3 series. Communication was good. Did a good job, friendly staff and a nice, clean waiting area.
Cured the problem, but expensive I shouldn't think they are to far off main dealer prices

apt-get remove --purge network-manager
Once again this (which comes in the default Squeeze install) is failing on its own without having done anything. After some time logged the network goes down and there's no way to make it authenticate again: keeps asking for the password forever, despite is already correctly typed.
Anyway I never liked to depend on an applet in the graphical desktop for gaining network access. Some times I like doing things on the console specially when no bells'n'whistles are required to get them done. This also saves some battery as there are less processes running, and, probably, less pixels emitting light :-)
It took me a while reading docs and specially understanding how it worked the first time I did it with this laptop. Currently it has become much easier, as there's less options to configure, or so it seems. First create the /etc/wpa_supplicant/home.conf file with the network definition:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant network={ ssid="myssid" scan_ssid=1 key_mgmt=WPA-PSK psk=2b883bdc473647e13258488c59d2cf9e4994f04078fbeb827049416fcb518703 }
The obfuscated password is obtained with wpa_passphrase utility. Otherwise you can simply put your password between double quotes in clear text if you don't care (psk="yourpassword").
Once this is ready lets add the interface to /etc/network/interfaces with the commands to run before initializing and after shutting down:
auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp pre-up /sbin/wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -B -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/home.conf post-down /usr/bin/killall -q wpa_supplicant
And you're done:
$ sudo ifup wlan0 Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client 4.1.1-P1 Copyright 2004-2010 Internet Systems Consortium. All rights reserved. For info, please visit https://www.isc.org/software/dhcp/ Listening on LPF/wlan0/00:11:22:33:44:ff Sending on LPF/wlan0/00:11:22:33:44:ff Sending on Socket/fallback DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4 DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10 DHCPOFFER from 192.168.0.1 DHCPREQUEST on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPACK from 192.168.0.1 bound to 192.168.0.222 -- renewal in 1310 seconds.
Of course this has an effect that the network is configured on booting, which by default may delay a bit the boot process. If you don't like this you can remove the auto wlan0 and provide an alternate way of ifuping the interface (maybe in /etc/rc.local, which is run later in the boot process).

Chloride sweat test
A chloride sweat test is the gold standard test for diagnosing cystic fibrosis (CF). CF is a disease that causes mucus to build up and clog organs, especially the lungs, which causes breathing problems. CF can be life-threatening if untreated.
CF is an inherited disease that affects about 30,000 children and adults in the U.S. This simple test measures the amount of the chemical chloride, which is part of salt, in your child's sweat. This test is quite accurate because people with CF have more chloride in their sweat than people without this disease.
Although this test can diagnose CF in anyone, it's usually done on babies and young children. If your baby had a blood test at birth that was positive for CF, your baby's doctor may order a sweat test when your baby is 2 to 4 weeks old.
Your child's doctor may also order this test if he or she suspects CF because of signs or symptoms at any age. CF causes thick mucus to build up in the lungs and the digestive system. Signs and symptoms may include:
Salty-tasting skin
Trouble breathing
Failure to gain weight
Frequent lung infections
Abnormal bowel movements
Your child may also have a blood test or a swab of cells taken from inside the mouth to look for abnormal genes that cause CF.
Many things may affect the lab test results. These include the method each lab uses to do the test. Even if the test results are different from the normal value, your child may not have a problem. To learn what the results mean for your child, talk with your child's health care provider.
Sweat test results are measured in units called millimoles per liter (mmol/L). Here are some possible readings for infants up to 6 months old:
29 mmol/L or less means your baby probably does not have CF.
30 to 59 mmol/L means your baby may have CF.
60 mmol/L or higher means your baby has CF.
For anyone older than 6 months of age:
39 mmol/L or less means the person is unlikely to have CF.
40 to 59 mmol/L means the person may have CF.
60 mmol/L or higher means the person has CF.
If your child has a sweat test done at a cystic fibrosis center, the caregivers at the center may discuss the results of the sweat test with you. The sweat test results may also be sent to your child's doctor, and you should discuss the results with him or her.
A sweat test takes about one hour. It is usually done at a CF care center. No needles are used for this test. Here is how it is done:
A clear liquid that causes sweating is rubbed over a small area of skin on the arm or leg.
An electrode is placed on the wet spot, and a small current of electricity is passed to the skin to stimulate sweat glands for about five minutes.
The small electric current may cause a mild tingling or warmth.
Sweat is then collected from the skin and sent off to have the amount of chloride in it measured.
The electric current used is weak and causes no harm. Other than feeling a mild tingling or warmth, your child faces no risks with this test. In some cases, if too little sweat is collected or if the results are borderline, the test may need to be repeated.
Some infants may not be able to make enough sweat to do this test. The test can be done at a later time. Once this test is positive, it will always be positive. Medications do not affect the results.
The only preparation for the sweat test is to not use skin creams and lotions for 24 hours before the test.

Last night I attended our monthly District Committee meeting. Now there is nothing special about that in and of itself, except last night as I sat and listened to a discussion about why we can not get registered adult leaders to training, I thought to myself it is all about the basics of leadership.
A leader once told me that "You can lead a horse to water… but you have to motivate him to drink".
That's right… its the basics. To lead people to training, to camporee, to become registered leaders we need to remember the basics. People will be led if you provide them PURPOSE, DIRECTION, and MOTIVATION!
I got a bit fired up about it explaining that if we want people to be trained we need to give them a reason to be trained..as if the scouts were not enough reason. That is their purpose.
We need to motivate them to go to training… as if the boys that keep showing up each week were not enough motivation.
And we need to give them some direction. People are drawn to action. This action causes people to do something or start heading in a direction that leads them to what they want.
In the case of training untrained leaders need to be given a date and time, maybe have them preregister for training, this will set their wheels in motion to getting there. I know that if I register, even if it is free I am more than likely to attend. The simple action of writing it down causes me to remember and make it important.
And so it goes with most activities in Scouting. I am tired of hearing leaders say that they can not get enough help. I have to ask… what have you done to get it… and when I say done… did you provide Purpose, Direction, and Motivation? or did you simply ask hear the word "NO" and move on? If you did the latter… you are not leading and therefore you will not get the desired results.
We see it time and again, 12 year old Scouts that effectively lead by using this model. They begin to understand what motivates their Patrols, they get an understanding of what it is that the SPL is asking for and lead from the front to set their patrols in motion to executing a task. If you have ever been to a camporee.. you saw it.
Leadership is how it is done. We train our Scouts to be the future leaders of America, why then do not not practice what we preach?
It is just a matter of getting back to the Basics. Purpose, Direction, and Motivation.. that's is how you lead.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

My Nodak blogger friend is reporting that "No gun zones" are being selected by the kooks that want to have their 15 minutes of fame. Really?? Who would have believed that. We KNOW, because that learned professional politician, Diane Feinstein has told us, it has all to do with the number of rounds in a clip of ammo, and of course the "Military styled weapon" that was used, was the only reason for the selection of the 'target'. Or at least, that's her "solution" to the problem.
All the Democrats have to be so proud of their leadership, and their primary solutions to making our schools safer from the lools of this nation. Remove all morality from what's being taught, provide all forms of video games for these kooks to practice their killing desires, and then wave a white surrender flag so they have an environment similar to shooting fish in a barrel, and it won't matter what form of weapon these kooks use. In such a "target-rich" setting, it's just a matter of WHEN the next wierdo acts, attempting of course to 'outdo' the previous escapade, so his star will be the most noticeable.
In the meantime, we have the lefties continuing to stick their heads in the sand, lobbying in various statehouses, as my friend Rob Port has discovered even in such a strong conservative state as Nodak, there are still those that are willing to not even try to solve the problem.
Shocker: New Town Shooter Picked School Because It Was A Vulnerable Gun Free Zone
Written By:
Rob Port
After all the gnashing of teeth about Americas gun culture in the aftermath of the New Town shooting, it turns out that what made the school a target for shooter Adam Lanza was anti-gun policy. According to evidence collected by law enforcement, Lanza was methodical in how he picked his target and settled on the school because it was a vulnerable place where he could rack up a big body count before people started shooting back at him.
This news was leaked previously, but law enforcement at the time denied it, but its clear now that what drew Lanza to New Town Elementary was its status as a gun free zone.
The man to whom I spoke, a tough career cop who did not wish to see his name in the newspaper, was in the room when the state cop from Connecticut spoke, said the man was well into his presentation when he began to talk of the spreadsheets that had been found at the shooters home.
He didnt use Lanzas name, saying he did not want to give him even an hour more of fame, just because that is what Lanza wanted; what all these shooters want, from Tucson to Newtown to Virginia Tech.
We keep calling them mass murderers, the veteran cop to whom I spoke said. But there should be a new way of referring to them: Glory killers.
They dont believe this was just a spreadsheet. They believe it was a score sheet, he continued. This was the work of a video gamer, and that it was his intent to put his own name at the very top of that list. They believe that he picked an elementary school because he felt it was a point of least resistance, where he could rack up the greatest number of kills. Thats what (the Connecticut police) believe.
Gun free zones are targets. Every mass shooting in America since 1950, with the exception of the Tucson shooting of former Rep. Gabbie Giffords, has happened in a gun free zone.
The North Dakota Senate will this week be considering legislation already passed by the state House to allow concealed carry in schools and churches. Many object to this idea, but the actions of shooters couldnt speak more loudly.
Gun free zones are targets. When we make a school or a church or a campus a gun free zone we make it a target. That needs to stop.
