PDR for Herbal Medicines
Publisher: Medical Economics Company
It has been shown approximately 40% of cancer patients are using some form of unconventional medical therapy (UMT). Herbal medicines represent a large fraction of UMT used by cancer patients. Unfortunately, the availability of sound scientific information for most of these treatments is limited. Also, because health care providers have not had formal education about herbal therapies, many do not know where to turn for reliable information.
The PDR for Herbal Medicines helps to fill this void. Medical professionals can feel confident that they are receiving information from a reliable, trusted resource. Healthcare providers will note this resource is much smaller than the PDR for prescription medications. This is due to the fact that much less scientific information is available about herbal medications than prescription medications. However, whenever scientific information is available, the herbal PDR presents the information in a readable and quickly digestible format. The resource is well organized so it can be used in a busy clinical situation. This resource should be available in every physician's office and nursing station.
The information on specific herbal medicines can be located quickly because both the scientific and common names are included in the index. There is also an index organized by specific indications, enabling the reader to quickly review the botanical alternatives for a particular diagnosis. There is even a side effects index, which includes an alphabetical list of every side effect cited in the herbal monographs. Full-color photographs of 380 common medicinal herbs are included and arranged alphabetically by scientific names.
The reference contains information on over 600 herbal therapies. Much of the herbal monographs section is based upon the work conducted by the acclaimed German Federal Health Authority's Commission E. This is the governmental body is recognized as having done the most authoritative evaluation of herbal medicines. For those herbs not evaluated by this commission, noted botanist Dr. Joerg Gruenwald has directed a literature review to provide a comprehensive evaluation of an additional 300 herbals. Each monograph contains the scientific and common name, detailed botanical description of the herb, active compounds and clinical effects of the herb, indications and uses, contraindications, side effects, overdose effects, recommended dose and routes of administration, and a bibliography of the scientific literature.
This resource is an indispensable guide to herbal medications. This is the best herbal guide currently available. It contains accurate, reliable information for the health care professional. Every physician, nurse, and medical student should have a copy of this comprehensive resource. OncoLink considers the PDR to Herbal Medicines the definitive guide to herbal therapies.

Born in 1930, in South Woodford (London), Mike Noble attended the School of Art S.W. Technical College in Walthamstow in 1946. During the late 1940s, he worked in an advertising studio in Holborn. By 1949, he served National Service by illustrating armoured vehicles, in the drawing office of the 8th Royal Tank Regiment. Back in civil life, he worked in a Chelsea studio and later in Cooper Studios in Oxford Street, London, where he did magazine illustrations for Woman's Own, John Bull, Woman, Odhams and the Birmingham Weekly Post.
Captain Scarlet
Noble started drawing comic books in 1953. He initially did his own strip, 'Robin', for Hulton Press. He became a freelancer in 1956 and contributed work to TV Comic, before becoming a staff artist at TV Century 21 Comics. There, he illustrated comic version of Gerry Anderson TV productions like 'Fireball XL5', 'Zero X' and 'Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons'. Noble furthermore illustrated an early 'Star Trek' strip for the Joe 90 Comic in 1970.
Captain Scarlet
He eventually left TV21 and joined Look-In magazine, produced by Independent Television Publications, where he drew the 'Timeslip' comics until the late 1980s. Noble's other credits include 'Follyfoot', 'The Famous Five', 'The Tomorrow People', 'Kung Fu', 'Worzel Gummidge', 'Robin of Sherwood' and 'Space: 1999'. He retired from comics due to health reasons in the 1980s, but returned in the 1990s to draw covers and illustrations for Gerry Anderson's new 'Thunderbirds' and 'Captain Scarlet' comics.

2013 INFINITI FX50 Values
Select a 2013 INFINITI FX50 trim level
2013 model year changes
Big news for the 2013 Infiniti FX is the increase in V6 engine displacement from 3.5L to 3.7L. The increase carries a bump in power, up from 303 hp to 325 hp. Model nomenclature changes accordingly and is now the FX37. An FX37 Limited Edition includes exclusive amenities such as 21-inch alloy wheels, adaptive and auto-leveling headlights and more.
Competitive comparison
Strong performance; beautiful exterior design; all-weather ability; comfortable seats; luxurious, well-trimmed interior; high-tech options
Special features for 2013
The 2013 Infiniti FX37 and FX50 manage to package sport-sedan performance into a crossover utility vehicle package. But what really separates them from the rest of the performance-SUV crowd is that they really look the part, with curvy sheetmetal and an aggressive stance. Both of these models handle far better than most other so-called performance utility vehicles. The other aspect that truly distinguishes the FX models is available technology. Especially on the FX50, a long list of optional items is available that otherwise might only be offered in big sedan flagships such as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or BMW 5-Series--including items like lane-departure warning, collision braking and intelligent cruise control.
Largely unchanged for 2013, the Infiniti FX50 is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine that produces 390 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. The standard AWD drivetrain is paired to a 7-speed automatic transmission that enables the FX50 to achieve 14 mpg city and 20 mpg highway. Features include HID headlights, LED brakelights, glass moonroof, power rear liftgate, dual exhaust with polished finishers, push-button ignition, heated/cooled seats, leather seats, 11-speaker sound system, steering-wheel mounted controls, hands-free phone capabilities, navigation system, rearview monitor, and voice recognition. Safety is comprised of an advanced airbag system, electronic brake force distribution (EBD), brake assist (BA), anti-lock braking (ABS), blind-spot warning, lane departure warning, traction control, and vehicle dynamic control. The FX50 is backed by a 4-year/60,000-mile warranty.

This illustration from MCall's November 1959 issue is the first piece I ever saw by Andy Virgil. It made me want to find more work by the artist. Compare its dynamic and complex compositional approach, its daring, vibrant colour scheme, its confident, masterful painterliness to the tentative, though competent illustration credited to one "Andrew Virgil" shown at the bottom of this post. That illustration from a 1955 issue of Collier's is the earliest example I've found by the artist.
That's why I find it so frustrating when there's no information available on the careers of illustrators like Virgil; how'd he get to be so good in such a short span of time? Was he sharing studio space with some other more established artist(s)? How did he manage to get assignments from the best national magazines when so many other talented artists could not? Was he part of a major studio's staff or did he have a well-connected rep?
In just four short years, the talented new-comer, Andrew Virgil, had become the daring and confident Andy Virgil - a worthy competitor to top dogs like Joe Bowler or Joe DeMers, and in my opinion, a rung above other third generation boy/girl artists Kurt Ard and Mark Miller. How he came such a long way in such a short span of time remains a mystery. For now.

LONDON, England (CNN) -- Britain's competition watchdog has ordered airport operator BAA to sell three of its seven airports, including two in London.
BAA must sell Gatwick Airport first.
BAA must sell Gatwick and Stansted airports in London and either Edinburgh or Glasgow airports in Scotland within two years, the Competition Commission said Thursday.
In publishing its decision Thursday, the commission said the sale of the airports will encourage competition "where today there is no competition at all."
BAA owns seven airports in the United Kingdom, including London's Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted. The Competition Commission says there are competition problems at all seven airports, with adverse consequences for passengers and airlines.
Finding new owners for the three airports will result in lower prices and improved customer service, said Christopher Clarke, chairman of the study. All three must have separate buyers, the commission said.
"The precise pace and the precise ways in which the benefits from such competition will emerge may be uncertain, but we are confident that the benefits will build over time, driven by the momentum of the development of competition, and will be significant," Clarke said.
In London, for instance, BAA's ownership of three airports prevents them from building more capacity and keeps prices high, the commission said.
"The intensity of price competition may initially be limited by current capacity constraints and price controls, but these constraints are themselves at least in part the result of common ownership," the commission said.
BAA said it acknowledged the need to change but did not agree with all of the commission's findings.
"We believe the commission's analysis is flawed and its remedies may be impractical in current economic conditions," BAA said in a statement, adding it needs more time to consider the report before responding further.
Carrier Virgin Atlantic, a longtime critic of BAA's ownership of the airports, welcomed the commission's decision.
"It will undoubtedly benefit consumers," said airline spokesman Paul Charles. "Better airport facilities in the UK and lower prices will be the result. ... The important next step is to ensure that there is adequate oversight of the divestment process."
BAA must sell the airports in sequence, beginning with Gatwick -- which went up for sale in September -- then Stansted and then either Edinburgh or Glasgow, the commission said.
The Competition Commission is an independent public group that investigates mergers, markets and regulated industries. The Office of Fair Trading, a government department, asked the commission to look into airport competition in March 2007.
The once-state owned BAA, which used to be known as the British Airports Authority, was privatized in 1986 and floated on the stock market in 1987. It is now owned by Spanish property group Ferrovial.

Kyle Busch survives rough day, heat to remain above cutline
By STEVE REED
CONCORD, N.C. (AP) Kyle Busch emerged from the infield care center at Charlotte Motor Speedway carrying a water bottle, relieved that a long, exhausting day was finally over.
Busch weathered two accidents, a spin and a sweltering car to finish the playoff race 29th, a minor victory considering what a difficult day it had been Sunday.
It was good enough to keep him above the cutline after the first race of the second round of NASCAR's playoffs .
When Busch's No. 18 Toyota hit the wall early in the race, it crushed the right rear panel and he said caused the temperature in his car to "rise about 50 degrees" on an already humid October afternoon.
Busch has participated in 934 races over NASCAR's three national series, but said this was by far the hottest he's ever been in a vehicle.
With about 50 laps remaining he radioed in he was staying on the track to pick up needed playoff points, but would need medical treatment after the race . He was helped out of his car immediately after Martin Truex Jr's victory and laid on the infield grass where he received medical treatment for about 10 minutes before being transported to the infield care center for more care.
Busch said he tested high for carbon monoxide and that he felt as if he was having a heat stroke.
"It got so hot inside the car that literally it felt like you were going to puke," Busch said. "We just tried to make it to the end of the race and luckily we did. From there it was trying to get my body temperature cooled back down."
The finish left Busch in sixth place in the points standings, two spots above the playoff cutline with two races remaining in the round. The field of 12 will be cut to eight in two weeks.
Busch had been dominant in the first round, winning two of three races.
"It stinks to give up points," Busch said. "We thought we had a good chance to run in the top 10 and we did. I threw it away. We are still above the cutline. But we no longer have the cushion that we would like to have."
Busch's problems began when he hit the wall in Turn 3.
He said it was difficult to get a read on the upper groove of the track where officials had applied a sticky compound designed to improve traction and create more competitive racing.
"I got in the slick stuff and I got into turn three and I was following (Kevin) Harvick and I was trying to work up a little bit," Busch said. "The last three laps I was inching it up. But apparently an inch a lap is too high and I got crossed up instantly. As soon as turned off in the corner it was sideways."
Busch also crashed twice during practice Friday.
His struggles in Charlotte continue on the Cup Series level.
Although he has won the All-Star race this this year and has won eight Xfinity Series races and seven Truck races, he has never won a Cup points race at the track.

The Lachine Canal is much more than just a route bypassing the rapids of the same name. The Lachine Canal's history stretches over more than 150 years and takes several directions. It comes within the scope of the interdependence between shipping, industrialization and urbanization, which marked Montréal's development.
The canal was the port of entry for a canal network that linked the Atlantic to the heart of the continent. It was one of the factors that made Montréal the cradle of the Canadian manufacturing industry.
The canal's location near the port and the development of its hydraulic power potential in addition to the availability of inexpensive labour, sufficient capital and the closeness of markets favoured the establishment of highly diversified businesses along its banks. Its development influenced the urbanization of the South-West of the island of Montréal.

South Philly is a district of Philadelphia.
Famous for its Italian heritage as well as being featured in Rocky, South Philly is also home to FDR Park and all of Philadelphia's major professional sports teams (at least until 2010, when the city's MLS team, Philadelphia Union, begins play in the suburb of Chester). You want a cheese steak? South Philly's where it's at! Recently, South Philly has become home to many Asian and Mexican immigrants. It also includes Ninth St Market (aka Italian Market) and East Passyunk St (roughly 11th and Passyunk SE to Broad St and Snyder), also known as Passyunk Square which is lined with shops, bars, and restaurants. Its upper boundary is South Street, arguably the center of nightlife and urban activity in Philadelphia, South Street encompasses almost every kind of urban attitude you'd expect in a major city. Tattoo parlors, cheese steak joints, local designer clothing stores, restaurants, music venues, and local cafes line South Street from Penn's Landing up to about 10th street. Every night it seems as if there is a street festival going on here.
Society Hill-Queen Village is one of Philadelphia's oldest neighborhoods, site of Gloria Dei (Old Swede's) Church. Walking around Queen Village will give you a taste of what Ben Franklin might have experienced in Philly when he was alive, as well as give you a peek at Philly's old European roots.
Get in
South Philly is technically considered to begin at South Street and below. SEPTA has many bus routes and subway stops to connect you to where you need to go.
South Street Shopping [18] South St. between 9th and Front Sts. holds a plethora of bargain stores and unique boutiques with a distinct urban Philadelphia flair. Retro Vintage, Guacamole and Condom Kingdom are among the most popular stores amidst a large amount of restaurants and bars.
South Philly has quite a few Italian restaurants plus diners and many places to eat. The block of South St. between Front St. and 6th St houses several good eateries worth checking out.
The most famous Philly cheesesteak shops are located in South Philly. Nearly all of these have been mentioned in travel guides and on national television, so large crowds of tourists are a common sight, and you should expect to wait in long lines, particularly on weekends. As these are all take-out windows, there are no indoor seating available, but some have outdoor seating.

Less than a week after the staff of the Volusia County Marine Science Center released four rehabilitated pelicans blown far from their homes by Hurricane Sandy, a new Sandy survivor is receiving help at the facility.
PONCE INLET — Less than a week after the staff of the Volusia County Marine Science Center released four rehabilitated pelicans blown far from their homes by Hurricane Sandy, a new Sandy survivor is receiving help at the facility.
Seabird rehabilitation center supervisor Chris Wise said the brown pelican was flown to Daytona Beach International Airport on Delta Airlines from Cape Cod, Mass., on Dec. 23.
"He is going to be with us awhile," she said Saturday.
Apparently, the bird has a bone infection in one wing and requires extensive physical rehabilitation in addition to the normal treatment of building up its body weight and rest.
She said her staff would have to manipulate the wing to ensure the joint does not freeze up.
This is more serious treatment than the previous four pelicans required. They suffered from lost feathers, scratches on their throat patches and exhaustion. Two of those birds were rescued in Rhode Island in early November, more than a week after Sandy made landfall in New Jersey.
They came to the Marine Science Center on Nov. 17. The other pair were also transported south from Rhode Island, arriving on Nov. 27.
Wise said juvenile pelicans can get caught up in such a storm as they ride the winds. They become disoriented and end up far north of their normal northern range of the Carolinas.
Once they were brought back to health, the pelicans were released back into the wild on Dec. 18.
Pelicans are not the only weather-impacted animals currently receiving care at the Marine Science Center.
Sea turtles — six loggerheads, two greens and one hybrid — are recovering from the recent cold snap that hammered the East Coast of the United States.
Turtle rehab supervisor Jackie Shum said the cold-blooded reptiles become stunned and are washed ashore when water temperatures get too cold. Various rescue groups in the Northeast know about the facilities and staff at the Marine Science Center and send their overflow south.
"We have the space, the manpower and the facilities," Shum said.
Once the turtles are back to strength, they too will be released into the wild.
However, not every patient at the center is as lucky.
Wise said a recent patient — a razorbill — died while being treated.
She said the migratory seabird, which is related to a puffin, gathers in flocks of thousands of birds and she believes Hurricane Sandy broke up one of these groups pushing them south of their normal territory.
"There are thousands of them in the Atlantic Ocean right now," Wise said. "As well as in the Gulf (of Mexico). They don't normally hang out in Florida and are getting washed ashore."
Wise said because of its unfamiliarity with humans, the stress of captivity may have caused the center's razorbill to die.
"We get a lot of birds that there is not a lot we can do for them," she admitted.

Last week we rolled out a a major update to our scoring system. Along with the points that we've had for months, we introduced a 1-100 scale that ranks your account in relation to other And Me Accounts on the site. After a week of close monitoring, we're back with some exciting new scoring updates.
During our last update, we tweaked the level of points that users received for an upvoted comment. Today, we're rolling out the ability for high ranking users to downvote a comment and have that vote actually affect the permanent user score. Just how many points depends on how high ranking the user is, but we've now got a few tiers in place where saying something stupid or rude might actually cost you your account points.
The ultimate goal here is to raise the overall discussion quality on the site and to hopefully highlight some of the most influential users. To that end, we now mark all anonymous comments as guest. We've also disabled Gravatars for guests, so if you'd like a proper user picture, you'll need to sign up for an And Me Account. Registering is free and takes about ten seconds (really).
For those of you with an account already (or who have freshly signed up), you'll notice our login area has moved to the top right of the site. There you'll find your user picture and percentile rank, along with links to edit your profile or logout. If you're not logged in, you'll see a Log In button (of course).
If you're an especially keen user, you'll notice that the Edit Profile page is all new. We've restyled everything and added a few fancy new options, like the ability to link a Twitter account. Soon, having a Twitter account linked will unlock some awesome new features around the site (plus we'll absolutely NEVER tweet without your permission). For now though, linking your Twitter account will just display a handy link on your And Me profile page.
Along with improvements for the And Me Accounts, we're also happy to be starting with a new advertising partner today. More details will soon follow.
If you haven't caught our drift here yet, we've got a lot of exciting things in store for this site. We've got a handful of new scoring and community features still to be unleashed, and we can't wait to share them with you guys.

The way i see it sei types arent pysically strong as dou types sei is more like human way while dou seems to be animal way of fighting , sei recemble dragon style ( it doesnt have too much power but it uses precise atacks ) while dou recemble tiger ( it doesnt have precise atacks but it has power ) . That is the main reason why ryuzampaktous masters are building kenichis muscle structure for endurance and explosive strenght which is the best way to fight against dou types .
With that logic i think kushinada style is the peak of sei types since it can fight with dou types without any strenght so i want kenichi learn how to use his ki like chikage , just look at akisame and ma they train much more then apachai or sakaki and even with that we all know sakaki or apachi limit their dou ki . As a sei type its so hard for kenichi to reach mius speed since even rimi was overpowered by miu when she relased her dou ki , also lets not forget rimis best feat was speed .
How will kenichi be fast without using dou ; we all know akisame or ma is fast but lets also not forget they are masters who trained like 20 years or more so what does kenichi needs to be that fast ? I think the answer for sei type speed lies with kushinada style which concantrates in ki manipulation , remember the scene where kushinada stand on water or run on it or when she seems like there is no gravity around her . Thats the skill kenichi needs to learn to be fast it may not seem like it but kenichi has so much ki but he doesnt know how to use it like chikage , chikage is a child but she is fast as miu with just ki manipulation and that alone shows kushinada style has best speed feats . If kenichi uses mius way he would never be able to catch her in 100 years so he needs to do it his way , i would really be dissapointed if kenichi stays slow forever .

Sei and Dou have nothing to do with styles as far as I can remember, it is mainly focused on emotions. A Sei user will remain calm through the whole battle and their power will never fluctuate up or down. A Dou type on the other hand uses emotions to fuel them, using anger for example to increase their strength as the fight goes on.
While a Sei user's power will never go up or down a Dou user's power will fluctuate depending on their state of mind.
Speed and strength, precision and accuracy...styles used, none of it really matters when it comes to being a Sei or Dou.
But hey, that's just my take on it...
PS: Masters trained for 20 years? Pfft more like their whole lives...all Ryozanpaku masters are 30 or over...except Shigure (23) and Apachai (29).

Caracciolo's goal in the 88th minute brought the crowd to its feet and generated a whirlwind of excitement, as it tied the game at two goals. After two previous possessions that the Clarksville, Tenn. native failed to convert on, Caracciolo fought through defensive pressure and found a slight opening to take his shot. Falling away from the ball and his defender, the sophomore blasted a shot that curved back toward the goal and hit the far-side post. The ball bounced backward and hit the back of the goal with 2:03 remaining.
King (3-7-2, 2-4-0) first got on the board off a boot from Tom Winspear (Yarm, England) in the 55th minute. After a Falcon foul inside the box, Winspear converted a penalty shot to half the lead, 2-1. It was the senior's 13th goal of the season.
The Tornado fell behind after Pfeiffer scored two goals in the first half, the latter of the two as the buzzer sounded. Patrick Milfeld (Dallas, Texas) stepped in as goalkeeper but allowed goals to Eamonn Smith and Ben Lloyd. Lloyd's goal came as the clock hit zero in the first half, a shot taken from just outside the 18-yard box.
King had a chance to earn the victory in the first overtime when Caracciolo nearly scored his second goal that all at Parks Field believed crossed the goal line, however, officials signaled no goal and instructed all to play on.
Milfeld ended the night with a pair of saves while his counterpart for Pfeiffer, Zach Liles, tallied seven. King compounded 20 shots, vastly outnumbering Pfeiffer who had eight. Nine of King's shots were on goal to the Falcons' four.
The Tornado honored six seniors in their pregame festivities for their dedicated service to King Men's Soccer. Patrick Milfeld, Colby Childress, Tom Winspear, Erik Douglas, Michael Johnson and Matt Kilgus plus their families were recognized prior to game.
King will play its next two games on the road against Belmont Abbey (Oct. 19) and Barton (Oct. 22) before returning to Parks Field one last time on Oct. 25 for a match against Queens (N.C).

Hurricanes place Jokinen, Wallace on waivers
Raleigh, NC – The Carolina Hurricanes placed forwards Jussi Jokinen and Tim Wallace on waivers Tuesday.
Jokinen's production has declined steadily since his first full season with the Hurricanes in 2008-09.
After registering 30 goals and 65 points in 2009-10, the Finn totaled 31 goals and 67 assists over the next two seasons.
This year he has compiled only five goals, 10 points and a minus-7 rating in 30 games.
Jokinen, 29, is in the second year of a three-year contract that pays him $3 million annually.
The 28-year-old Wallace has scored one goal in 21 games with the Hurricanes this season.

Apropos of nothing, went to the LA-FCD game last night. Fun game. First game I've been to all year. LA absolutely kills it with their game posters and game day programs. Their program covers are the poster for the game day, and they did a Mexican Bingo card for last night's game. Really awesome, everyone should check it out (especially if you've ever played bingo in this fashion- don't worry, it's not like the bingo you play in the home).

I still have an issue with this. I watched the game. No red card was ever shown. The referee simply gestured at him to leave. You may consider that trivial, but the official MLS box score does not show that a red card was given (because it wasn't). It appears to me that a coach being sent off is not the same thing as a red card. If there's no red card, there's no red card. from Weirder Bremen

NYR isn't far from having the best odds, 7.50 vs.
5.50 for LAG. LA is perhaps better-known because of
the high-profile DP's plus they've won it a lot
recently. Internationally I don't think BWP is as
highly regarded as the LA DP's. NYR hasn't won a
lot of hardware, either. We'll see how they both do
these last couple of weeks. A lot can change.

Human - Elephant Conflict
Battles over ever decreasing land
While many people in the West regard elephants with affection and admiration, the animals often inspire fear and anger in those who share their land.
Elephants eat up to 450kg of food per day. They are messy eaters, uprooting and scattering as much as is eaten. A single elephant makes light work of a hectare of crops in a very short time.
Consequences for local peopleSmall farmers - often desperately poor and already economically and nutritionally vulnerable, forced by circumstances to encroach into elephant habitat - can lose their entire livelihood overnight from an elephant raid.
Large agriculture is also affected. In the largest palm oil producing province in Indonesia, Riau, losses due to elephant damage of oil palm plantations and timber estates are estimated to be around US$105 million per year.
People are also often injured and killed. In India, over 100 people are killed by elephants each year, and over 200 people have been killed in Kenya over the last 7 years.
Elephants are often killed in retaliation. Wildlife authorities in Kenya shoot between 50 and 120 problem elephants each year and dozens of elephants are poisoned each year in oil palm plantations in Indonesia.
Over the last 100 years, African elephant populations have declined from 3-5 million to 470,000-690,000 and Asian elephant populations have declined from 100,000 to between 35,000 and 50,000. Habitat loss and conflict with people are among the biggest threats to their continued survival.
SolutionsWWF and its partners are working to reduce conflict with elephants through a range of techniques.
These include: chilli and tobacco-based deterrents to keep elephants out of fields; changing farming practices - making farms easier to defend; growing crops that elephants don't like; education; and improving oil palm plantation practices in Malaysia and Indonesia.
One example involves restoring degraded biological corridors to facilitate seasonal movement of elephants and other wildlife in the lowland Terai region of Nepal so that the animals don't need to travel through human habitations and habitat management in protected areas in Nepal.

|Salisbury, an option team, fumbled seven times, two
of them forced by Delaware Valley.

Three of the nation's top defenses survived round one by shutting down three of the nation's most powerful offenses. Their reward? Try to do it again this week against an even more prolific offense.
Thomas More, Delaware Valley, and Montclair State won their first-round matchups by holding their respective opponents a collective 72.62 points below their per game scoring average.
The Saints shut down Washington and Lee's fourth-ranked rushing attack and No. 23 scoring offense, holding the Generals 23 points and 127 yards below their season averages. Despite giving up 323 total yards, the Saints were able to make big plays and get off the field when they needed to most.
"Our defense made key plays when we had to, especially on third downs," said Thomas More head coach and defensive coordinator Jim Hilvert.
Against a top-25 offense, a bend-not-break philosophy can be an effective defensive strategy. Delaware Valley shut down the nation's second-ranked rushing team by forcing five Salisbury turnovers.
"We knew they were prone to turning the ball over, so we stressed the importance of gang tackling," said head coach Jim Clements. "The turnovers were the key to our success."
Hampden-Sydney entered the postseason averaging 35 points per game. Montclair State traveled to Farmville, Va., and held the Tigers to their lowest output since last season's first-round playoff loss to Johns Hopkins. The Red Hawks knew they would give up yards, but focused on limiting big plays.
"Our approach was to not give up big chunks of yardage, not let them turn an 8-yard gain into a 40-yard gain," said Montclair coach Rick Giancola.
While the Generals, Sea Gulls, and Tigers all entered the postseason expecting to put up big numbers, their first round opponents had something else in common. The Saints, Aggies, and Red Hawks each rank in the top 15 in scoring defense, holding opponents to less than 12 points per game. After shutting down high-powered offenses in round one, the winners face similar, but more imposing challenges in round two. Each team will once again need to rely on a huge effort from its defense to slow an opponent capable of lighting up the scoreboard.
"We always preach defense and kicking game," said Giancola, whose team travels to Wesley on Saturday. "If they can give us a short field, it takes the pressure off of our offense."
The Wolverines enter with the ninth-ranked offense, averaging 42.89 points per game. If the Red Hawks defense can go on the road for a second straight week and hold their host well below their scoring average, Montclair State will be in position to pull off a second straight upset.
"It usually comes down to who can put their will on the other side," said Giancola. "You want to give yourself a chance to win late."

the Washington and Lee offense in check.

Thomas More faces another top-ten ground attack at Mary Hardin-Baylor. The Crusaders boast the third-ranked scoring offense in the country. The Saints hope to slow the Crusaders the way they were able to stifle the Generals. After defending their home field, the Saints now get to play the role of road underdog.
"We're very excited to play a top-five team. We have nothing to lose," said Hilvert. "We face another high-powered offense and we have to be able to stop the run."
Playing keep-away proved an effective strategy in round one. A fresh and rested defense usually has the advantage over a frustrated offense. The Saints' defense helped its offense to its best performance of the year. Thomas More rushed for more than 400 yards against the Generals, the first time they had done so in Hilvert's tenure. The Saints ground game also kept the Generals offense on the sideline for long stretches. For the Aggies, it was their offense that helped their defense make quick work of Salisbury. Delaware Valley's offense possessed the ball for 31 minutes, keeping the defense fresh and keeping Salisbury's potent offense stewing on the sideline.
"You need offense, defense, and special teams working hand in hand to succeed in the postseason," said Clements. "Sometimes your defense's best friend is your offense."
The Aggies hope that their offense wins the time of possession battle again this weekend and limits the opposing offense's possessions. Delaware Valley travels to Alliance to take on a Mount Union team averaging over 40 points per game.
If Delaware Valley, Thomas More, or Montclair State wins on Saturday, it will be an upset. It will also most likely be the result of another tremendous defensive effort put forth against an offensive juggernaut. In the postseason, every possession, down, yard, and point become even more crucial.
"If you have a really good defense, it keeps you in the game," said Hilvert. "Even if you fall behind, it's usually not by much."

Two key questions about the HTC Endeavor (previously known as the HTC Edge) have lingered since we first learned of the handset last November: Will it come loaded with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)? And will it run HTC's Sense 4.0? Those questions have now been answered. According to unnamed sources who spoke with MoDaCo, the device will run on Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3, and will be one of the first devices to include HTC's latest user interface, Sense 4.0. A newly leaked ROM Update Utility confirms these details.
While expectant fans are waiting for the official reveal at this year's Mobile World Conference, however, the latest Apple injunction to ban the sales of Samsung's Galaxy Nexus may be a cause for concern.
Apple's latest lawsuit against Samsung wages a direct attack on Google's latest OS, Ice Cream Sandwich. If HTC does run ICS on the Endeavor, Apple could, if it felt threatened, decide to file a preliminary injunction against the Taiwanese smartphone maker to block sales of the device. If the courts favor Apple in their patent suit against Samsung, it is likely that they will turn their attention to HTC, who filed a patent suit against Apple back in September.
In the meantime, as the anticipation builds, you can download the unreleased ROM Update Utility for the HTC Endeavor, leaked onto xdadevelopers, here: HTC Endeavor RUU
These are the specs we know so far about the HTC Endeavor:
- Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
- Sense 4.0
- 1.5GHz quad-core Tegra 3 processor
- 1GB of RAM
- 32GB internal storage
- 4.7-inch 720p display
- 8MP rear-facing camera/1.3MP front-facing camera
- WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n
- Bluetooth 4.0
- Quad-band HSPA+ radio

Arkansas Body Art Bill Clarified
Last week, social media was buzzing with posts about the Arkansas State Senate Bill that would "ban certain tattoos, which it characterized as 'untraditional'." And like so many things you read on social media, the posts were riddled with errors and drama. We even had a heated discussion about it on our N+S Facebook group page, with some interesting comments from members that went beyond discussion of the supposed bill but about regulation of our industry in general.
In that group discussion, Erik Sprague aka The Lizardman posted a link to bodymod.org, which offered the correct and insider info of how the Arkansas Body Modification Association worked with legislators to remove provisions of a proposed bill that would ban certain types of body art in favor of regulation -- regulation that was helped shaped by body modification practitioners.
Today, the news media, well, at least MSNBC, caught on and set out to correct the errors floating around the discussion of Arkansas' body art law. Here's a bit from the article:
At issue is Arkansas Senate Bill 387 which both chambers of the Arkansas state legislature actually passed in late March of this year. The bill was then signed by the governor. Rather than banning tattoos or cracking down on the body art industry-as many headlines have suggested-the bipartisan legislation actually legally redefines the term body art in Arkansas to add the practice of scarification-the scratching, etching or cutting of the skin to produce a design.Read more here.
At least now the debate can center around people's thoughts on regulated versus unregulated aspects of our industry rather than hysteria and mistruths.

"What do you say?" my nephew prodded. "What do you say to Aunt Donna?" He was talking to his 18-month-old son. We were just sitting down to lunch at my mother's house after church Sunday.
"What do you say?" my nephew prodded. "What do you say to Aunt Donna?" He was talking to his 18-month-old son. We were just sitting down to lunch at my mother's house after church Sunday.
It was time to eat, and the little fellow was hungry. But as I lifted him to a seat at the kitchen table, it was obvious that the seat would never work. Without a high chair or a booster seat, we would have to make some adjustments. So I went into the bedroom, grabbed a pillow, and proceeded to make him a makeshift high chair so he could reach the table.
At his father's urging, his sweet little dimpled son said, "Dane doo."
"You're welcome," I replied.
I couldn't help but smile. I knew that at that very moment in time that hundreds, maybe even thousands of other parents were urging their own children to say the very same thing, coaxing them with the exact same question. "What do you say?"
I remember asking my own sons that question as soon as they could string a few words together. "I want gulp," my middle son would declare as he pointed to the cups in the cabinet. "What do you say?" I would ask as I handed him a cup of juice. "Dane doo," he would reply.
"Dane doo," for the juice soon turned into "thank you" for the toy monster truck, and later, "thanks" for the car and the gas money to drive that car.
As I watched my little great nephew "dane doo" to his mamaw for the juice, and "dane doo" to his daddy for the ball, I realized that as adorable and sweet as he is, he probably would never have said "dane doo" to any of us, for any of those things, had he not been taught.
I have been taught to say "thank you" myself. I remember my parents urging with the same question that my nephew used to urge his little boy. When I was just a little girl, my parents insisted that I thank my grandparents for the gifts that they gave me for Christmas and for my birthday, and all the other things in between. But I also remember that most of the time, a simple "thank you" was not good enough. Not only would I tell them thank you, but I was also expected to write a thank you note, just to make sure they knew how grateful I was for the things they did for me and the things they gave me.
I was taught at home and at church to "give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you" (1 Thessalonians 5:18) and to "… give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, and his steadfast love endures forever!" (Psalm 107:1) My parents modeled "giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." (Ephesians 5:20)
About a week ago in this season of thanksgiving I received a message from a lady who renewed the spirit of thankfulness that my parents worked with such diligence to instill in me as a child. It also reminded me of how many of those lessons that we forget, or at least take for granted as we grow older. The message read, "I enjoyed sitting with your mother and mother-in-law yesterday" (at a Christian women's meeting). "How blessed you are! They were so caring and gracious to each other!"
How blessed indeed, not only that my mother and my mother-in-law are beautiful Christian women and great friends, but that my husband's family and my family have always been kind and considerate of each other. I realized that all the words in the world could never express my gratitude to our families for their love and devotion through the years.
But my blessings certainly don't end there. As I glanced over at my daughter-in-law singing, "Give thanks with a grateful heart," at the Thanksgiving family night service at church, it occurred to me that her family was just as kind and gracious to my only married son as my husband's parents have been to me. She is her parents' only child, and yet they are so gracious and giving during the holidays. In the two years that she has been married to my son, we have all been able to enjoy many special times with our children.
I was washing dishes the other night when I overheard a conversation between this same son and his dad. "Dad," my son said, "I was talking to some guys that I went to college with the other day. They were talking about their student loans. Dad, one was talking about paying $700 a month for 20 years to pay off that loan. Twenty years, Dad. Yeah, he went to school for a long time, but I never thought about that when you and Mom paid to send me to college. Dad, you set me up to be successful. I couldn't have what I have or be where I am today without you."
In my mind, I could hear myself ask that little curly-haired towhead a question. "What do you say?"
"Dane doo, Daddy." "Thank you, Dad."
And thank you, too, my Heavenly Father, for reminding me once again of all the blessings in my life for which I am truly grateful.

On Nov. 14, the Supreme Court announced that it would hear one of several cases that have been working their way through the federal court system challenging the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the federal healthcare reform legislation passed by Congress and signed into law in March 2010 by President Barack Obama.
The announcement from the nation's highest court came just six days after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit had affirmed the entire ACA on Nov. 8. That ruling was the fourth among four federal appeals courts that had taken on legal challenges to the ACA. Two of these courts (the D.C. court and the Sixth District court in Cincinnati) had affirmed the entire law, while the Fourth District court in Richmond had declared the plaintiffs in the two cases it heard to have lacked the legal standing to bring their cases. However, the Eleventh District Court of Appeals in Atlanta had ruled against the individual insurance mandate in a 2-1 decision on Aug. 12, although that court had also determined that the ACA as a whole was constitutional.
In sum, no federal appellate court has struck down the entire ACA as unconstitutional, while the Eleventh Circuit struck down only the individual mandate element of the law. Still, the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to take on the entire law and could rule the entire law constitutional; could rule the entire law unconstitutional; or could rule only on the constitutionality of the individual mandate. It could also decide that it is too early to rule on the constitutionality of the ACA, based on the fact that its individual mandate element does not become effective until 2014, by applying a federal law that says that legal challenges cannot be brought to taxes until those taxes are actually levied. The Republican leadership in the U.S. Congress has declared itself uniformly opposed to the ACA and has encouraged the legal cases challenging its constitutionality, while most Democrats in Congress voted for the ACA and continue to support it. Meanwhile, the Obama administration on Sep. 28 announced that it would not seek a full appeals court review of the Aug. 12 decision, and instead petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to take that case, with the Justice Department stating on Sep. 28 that, "Throughout history, there have been similar challenges to other landmark legislation, such as the Social Security Act, the Civil Rights Act and the Voting rights Act, and all of those challenges failed. We believe the challenges to the Affordable Care Act—like the one in the 11th Circuit—will also ultimately fail and that the Supreme Court will uphold the law."
On Nov. 14, Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner (R-Ohio), said in a statement, "This government takeover of healthcare is threatening jobs, increasing costs, and jeopardizing coverage for millions of Americans, and I hope the Supreme Court overturns it." Meanwhile, in a statement also on Nov. 14, White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer said, "We know that the Affordable Care Act is constitutional and are confident the Supreme Court will agree." The justices have announced that they will hear five-and-a-half hours of arguments, an exceptionally long block of time dedicated to the questions around healthcare reform. Legal experts made note of the length of time being scheduled for oral arguments in a case that is unprecedented, given the complexity of the legislation involved, as well as the fact that the Supreme Court will be ruling on the constitutionality of that legislation during the course of a presidential campaign.
The outcome, experts agreed, is potentially very open. Paul Rothstein, a professor of law at Georgetown University Law School, told MSNBC's Thomas Roberts on Nov. 14 that "There are just too many variables here" to be able to predict with any certainty how the nation's high court might ultimately rule, adding that "it's an issue that cuts across conservative and liberal lines. Some of the justices in the courts below that have ruled in favor of the Obama healthcare plan have been Republicans, and vice-versa; so it's really very hard to call it."
Rothstein went on to say that "The Supreme Court, even though it's taken the case, could decide that it's too early to call it, based on the idea that people don't have the right to challenge it until their ox is gored. Also, there's a law that says that you can't challenge a tax until it has to be paid. So we really don't know what the Supreme Court is going to do. There are also lots of regulations besides the individual mandate, and they're going to have to decide [about those], too."
The high court is expected to hear oral arguments by sometime in March 2012 and will likely issue a ruling by June.

I could wait no longer and jumped in. Especially the commentary by Karl Ameis is very helpful so far.
I have however a question about the following verse:
εἰ δέ κε μὴ δώωσιν ἐγὼ δέ κεν αὐτὸς ἕλωμαι
ἕλωμαι must be a subjunctive used instead of the future indicative; conjunctivus futuralis it is called in my Dutch grammar of Homeric Greek. But I'm not sure about δώωσιν: is it also a conjunctivus futuralis (sorry, I'm not familiar with the English term) or a subjunctive in the proteasis of a future more vivid conditional sentence. It seems to be somewhere in between.
Second question: is the use of the subjunctive for the future indicative restricted to Homer? I never encountered it in Atttic.

Tennessee upsets No. 8 Florida
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Tennessee finally got a road win, and this one might just give the team the boost it needs to turn around a mediocre season.
Trae Golden scored 17 points, Jeronne Maymon added 15 points and 11 rebounds, and the Volunteers upset No. 8 Florida 75-70 Saturday, ending the Gators' home-winning streak at 19.
It was Tennessee's most complete game of the season. Somewhat surprisingly, it came on the road, where the Vols had been 0-7.
"This is one of the most impressive wins of the season," said guard Kenny Hall, who eight points. "We got on them early and made sure we had the lead for most of the game."
It was a downright debacle for Florida, which lost consecutive games for the first time in nearly two years.
Coming off a 20-point loss at top-ranked Kentucky and wearing gray uniforms to commemorate the program's back-to-back national championships in 2006 and 2007, the Gators (19-6, 7-3 Southeastern Conference) trailed by double digits early and never mustered anything resembling a legitimate comeback.
"Where we're going we might be in the NIT if we don't just turn around right now," Florida guard Bradley Beal said. "If that didn't fit into our minds and really stick in our minds, then I don't know what's going to happen. We really have to turn around, and I think we'll do that."
Florida's biggest problem was it played most of the game without its top two reserves, guard Mike Rosario and forward Will Yeguete. Forward Cody Larson also was out because of a stomach virus.
Rosario missed the game because of a hip pointer, and Yeguete suffered a head injury early in the first half when he slammed into the padding at the base of the basket. He was briefly knocked out, then went to the locker room for stiches. He failed a concussion test during halftime, and coach Billy Donovan said he is out indefinitely.
The Gators essentially were left with a seven-man rotation that included seldom-used guard Casey Prather.
Nonetheless, Donovan said he saw the lackluster effort coming after a week of poor practices.
"I think these are the experiences where you get kind of hardened a little bit and our team needs to be hardened a little bit," Donovan said. "We need to be more battle-tested, battle-weary, so to speak."
The Volunteers (13-12, 5-5) took it to Florida from the start, driving the lane repeatedly and getting big men Patric Young and Erik Murphy in foul trouble.
Tennessee finished with 36 points in the paint, 12 offensive rebounds and its first series sweep of Florida since 2009.
Coach Cuonzo Martin told his players during the morning shootaround that it was time they won on the road.
"We had the necessary pieces and the necessary mindset to win the game," Martin said. "Before, we weren't mentally ready. I let our guys know we could win our road games."
Beal and Kenny Boynton led the Gators with 16 points apiece. Boynton had four of the team's 11 3-pointers. Florida leads the nations in 3s, but shot 37.9 percent (11 of 29) from behind the arc.
Most of those came late.
Erik Murphy drained two 3s in the final minute, trimming Tennessee's lead to 71-64 with 18.3 seconds remaining. But the Volunteers closed it out from the free throw line.
Golden hit two foul shots with 17.2 seconds left to push the lead back to nine.
Wes Washburn was called for a technical foul with 11 seconds left, but Boynton missed both free throws. The Gators kept the ball, and Scottie Wilbekin hit a 3 to make it 73-67, but Golden sank two more on the other end to seal the victory.
Skylar McBee had 13 points for Tennessee, and Jordan McRae added 12 before fouling out in the final minute. Talented freshman Jarnell Stokes played despite a sore right hand and finished with four points. Cameron Tatum spent most of the game on the bench in foul trouble. He didn't take a shot and finished scoreless for the third time in the last five games.
Tennessee used a 15-2 run midway through the first half to take a 24-12 lead. McRae scored seven points in the spurt, most of them off Florida turnovers.
The Gators finished with 15 turnovers, their most since committing the same number in Knoxville last month.
The biggest difference was Florida's depth. With a short bench, the Gators had few substitutes and no real chance to press and try to force tempo.
Tennessee took advantage, repeatedly getting the ball in the paint and exposing Florida's weakness.
How will the Gators respond?
"I don't know if it's a crossroads as much as it is a `Who are we, who do you want to be?' kind of a thing," Donovan said.

Lisa Becker is the author of Click: An Online Love Story. She dropped by the virtual offices to introduce herself and discuss her book.
Manga Maniac Cafe] Describe yourself in 140 characters or less.
[Lisa Becker] About me: Mom, wife, writer, college professor, PR professional, Girl Scout troop leader, chauffeur, referee, cook, house cleaner…and exhausted!
[Manga Maniac Cafe] Can you tell us a little about Click?
[Lisa Becker] Click: An Online Love Story follows the dating (mis)adventures of Renee Greene, who is fast approaching her 30th birthday and finding herself not married, not dating, without even a prospect or a house full of cats. She reluctantly joins her best guy pal on a journey to find love online in Los Angeles. The story unfolds through a series of emails between Renee and her best friends (anal retentive Mark, the overly-judgmental Ashley and the overly-sexed Shelley), as well as the gentlemen suitors she meets online. From the guy who starts every story with "My buddies and I were out drinking one night," to the egotistical "B-list" celebrity looking for someone to stroke his ego, Renee endures her share of hilarious and heinous cyber dates. Fraught with BCC's, FWD's and inadvertent Reply to All's, readers will root for Renee to "click" with the right man.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] How did you come up with the concept and the characters for the story?
[Lisa Becker] My husband and I met online on a popular dating website. After we married, I was recalling some of the hilarious experiences that I had with both traditional and online dating. I decided to capture some of them in writing and from there, a novel emerged. Click is loosely based on my real-life dating experiences, as well as stories friends have shared with me. In some cases, things are written as they actually occurred. Other scenarios are exaggerated for entertainment value or comedic affect. And some scenarios are completely fictionalized. I really did go out on a date with someone I met online who started every story (no joke!) with "My buddies and I were out drinking last night." But, the happy ending is real. Steve and I have been happily married for nine years and have two amazing daughters.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] What three words best describe Renee?
[Lisa Becker] Romantic, loyal and modest
[Manga Maniac Cafe] If Renee had a theme song, what would it be?
[Lisa Becker] Renee's theme song would be "Live is All-Around" by Paul Williams. Most people know it as the theme song to the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Renee is a spirited, independent, capable young woman who is "Gonna make it after all" in both her professional and personal life.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] What are your greatest creative influences?
[Lisa Becker] · Ms. Griffith, my high school English teacher, who encouraged me to write and share my work – for better or worse.
· Charles Rosen, one of the producers of the original Beverly Hills 90210 and the subject of an interview I conducted for an alumni magazine article. He gave me some of the BEST advice I've ever received: "Don't fall in love with your words, because somebody above will probably change them."
· Matthew Beaumont, author of e, who inspired me with his narrative style, which I thought would work really well for the story I wanted to tell about the online dating world.
· Herb & Sheila Willet, my amazing parents, who offered endless love and support in all of the choices I've made in my life. I only hope I can show my children the same level of respect as they mature and decide their courses in life.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] What three things do you need in order to write?
[Lisa Becker] 1. Chocolate! No joke, I eat chocolate. If I'm stuck on a certain section or not feeling motivated to write, I give myself little chocolate incentives to get past the blockage. Judging by my thighs, I had some serious problems writing this book. 😉
2. The television on in the background. When I first started writing, I was obsessed with Law & Order reruns. Now, I can't seem to get enough of NCIS. I guess there's a part of me that likes to see justice served.
3. Inspiration. I need to have a story that I not only want to tell, but feel as though I can tell in a compelling and entertaining way.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] What is the last book that you read that knocked your socks off?
[Lisa Becker] Several months ago, I read Michael Pollan's nonfiction book, In Defense of Food, which examines the western diet and its effect on our health. His advice is simple: "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." That, coupled with a viewing of a documentary called Forks Over Knives, which examines how many degenerative diseases can be controlled or reversed with a whole food, plant based diet, changed my life. I'm now six months into being a vegetarian and have never felt better.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] If you had to pick one book that turned you on to reading, which would it be?
[Lisa Becker] I remember always reading and having books around in my house. And, one of my favorite books as a child was Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles by Julie (Andrews) Edwards. I bought a copy several years ago for my nephew and he recently gave it back to me so I could give it to my daughters when they get older. It's a wonderful, fanciful story and I still smile when I imagine the Whangdoodle who has a daisy on his sweet tooth.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] What do you like to do when you aren't writing?
[Lisa Becker] When I'm not writing, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. As mentioned, I've recently become a vegetarian, so I'm always on the hunt for new and interesting recipes. And I've recently taken up painting. Needless to say, there's never a dull moment around here.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] How can readers connect with you?
[Lisa Becker] I have a Facebook page here set up for Click: An Online Love Story. And I've been asked numerous times when the sequel is coming out. I'm thrilled people are feeling invested in the characters and want to know more. With each positive review and reader comment, I get more and more motivated to continue writing. I'm wrapping up the sequel, Double Click that picks up six months later. I hope people will be excited to see where Renee and her friends are in their lives.
[Manga Maniac Cafe] Thank you!

Blackened Fish Filets
Makes 6 servings
If you don't have a commercial hood vent over your stove, this dish will set off every smoke alarm in your neighborhood! It's better to cook it outdoors on a gas grill or a butane burner.
Find this recipe and more in Chef Paul Prudhomme's Always Cooking!.
3 tablespoons Chef Paul Prudhomme's Seafood Magic® OR
½ stick unsalted butter (melted) or oil
6 (8 to 10 ounce) fish filets (firm fleshed fish such as red snapper, catfish, redfish, salmon, or tuna steaks), at room temperature, cut about 1/2 inch thick
how to prepare
Heat a large cast-iron skillet over very high heat until it is extremely hot (about 600°F).
Spread a little of the butter or oil on each side of the filets. Sprinkle one side with ¾ teaspoon of the Magic Seasoning Blend® and place the filet in the heated skillet seasoned side down. Sprinkle the top side with ¾ teaspoon of the Magic Seasoning Blend®. Cook, turning frequently until the fish starts to flake, about 4 minutes. Repeat with remaining filets. Serve each filet while piping hot.
Special note from Chef Paul: Because this method is simple, any variation will make a dramatic difference. Be sure the skillet is hot enough and absolutely dry. Be sure not to overseason - - the herbs and spices should highlight the taste rather than hide or overpower it. You don't want to overcook the filet - - there's a big difference between blackened and burned. Avoid a burned, bitter taste by wiping out the skillet between batches.

The Yoga Pants Prank Is Back (And Better Than Ever)
Earlier this month, an enterprising young man decided to pull a fast one on other men with a clever prank in which he duped other guys into thinking he was a woman by looking at his backside while wearing tight yoga pants.
It got quite the reaction, so the sequel is here. This time, he enlists the help of a woman also in yoga pants and asks men walking by who's got the bigger caboose.
Well, these fellas are in for a shock when they discover there's another dude in one of the pants.
Making sure to look but not touch is wise advice, but maybe it's time to skip out on both of them.

A moment's reflection while gazing at a peaceful lake scene.
I paint in watercolours for the most part, but enjoy trying new things like batik, acrylics and alcohol inks, gravitating toward the natural world for my subject matter. I enjoy painting landscapes and still life but find that birds, animals and people, with their winning ways, inspire my work. I have decided to share this page with my muse, my inspiration - my mother, who painted in oils beginning in her 50�s, who found her passion and passed it to me long before she herself passed. Lillian May Johnson. I dedicate my work to her. I am currently represented by Wayne Arthur Gallery on Provencher Blvd in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Excerpt from The disciplined Trader by Mark Douglas
1. Refusing to define a loss.
2. Not exiting a losing trade, even after you acknowledge the trade's potential is greatly diminished.
3. Getting locked into a specific opinion or belief about the market or stock direction.
4. Focusing on price and monetary value of a trade instead of the potential for the market to move based on its behavior and structure.
5. Revenge trading to take back from the market what you have lost.
6. Not reversing your position even when you clearly sense a change in the market direction.
7. Planning for a move or feel one building, but then finding yourself immobilized to execute the trade, thus denying yourself the opportunity to profit.
8. Not acting on your instincts or intuition.
9. Establishing a consistent pattern of trading success over a period of time, and then giving your winnings back to the market in one or two trades and
starting the cycle all over again.
How to over come wrong thinking and trading patterns.
1. Define and enter a stop loss at the time of entry.
2. Define a maximum amount of loss after which no matter what, you will exit the trade.
3. Be flexible and open to change your opinion on the market and stock direction.
4. Have a well defined system of trading and follow it.
5. After a loss or a trading setback, do not impulse trade. Study what went wrong. Also trade small position size or take a break from trading till feeling confident.
6. Accept that stock can change direction at any moment, and that all trades cannot be profitable. A successful trader has to keep losses small, and should not let a profitable trade turn into a loss.
7. To overcome uncertainty and to enter trade with confidence, It gets easier when a long or short entry is made and the stop loss is defined beforehand at the time of entry.
8. Successful trading involves the ability to pull the trigger. The confidence to pull the trigger come from trading with rules.
9. Discipline and risk management is a must to ensure that trading is consistently profitable, while at the same time not risking more when on a profitable run.
10. Finally, it is important to keep a record or a dairy of all the trades executed each day and to review the trigger points for the entry and exit and if they are as per the defined rules. Lessons learnt from wrong execution to be codified into rules.
Trade with an edge. Be Disciplined. Manage Risk.
Great, very useful... I'm still the beginner, so it's very good to get the first-hand experiences from an expert
I'm always grateful to people who willingly impart their knowledge. Thank you.
One of the key differentiators between hedge funds and other investment vehicles is the use of leverage. Leverage can be your best friend one day, and your worst enemy the next. Everyone knows that leverage will accentuate both gains and losses. My current brokers Tickmill offer 1:500 max leverage, trade from 0.01 lot; I respect them for not offering an extreme leverage such 1000 or even 2000 leverage ratio, which obviously dangerous for any new traders, and none of any expert traders suggested such leverage ratio.
Never think that if you read foreign exchange theories and you have tried free demo trading, then you will get your instant millions of dollars in two days. Keep learning by doing and welcome your success through your high efforts. Forex emotion is very bad for trade.Because emotion can harm our capital.So every traders should be avoid emotion. there's many way to encounter such obstacle. many traders would suggest to refine our psychological trading state before start analyze the market. but these may too hard to implement for any new traders. I took suggestion from some expert trader, and use risk management to minimize emotional aspect during trading. Still use 2% risk per-trade based on my tickmill account margin. good execution condition (ECN) with low spread and also high leverage offered (1:500) makes any trade only need small amount margin required.
I don't be sad If I loss few times because I believe I will rise again and recover my losses. Thus, trading with CTOption I barely loss while trading binary market. Following their FREE Signals I can make easy profits in financial industry.
I know how one feel when he/she losses money in trading because I have passed that moment too. However, now I don't scare of losing because my broker CToption offers 20% cashback on my losing trades
Confidence is good but being over confident also sometimes leads to heavy losses so better to be a moderate person in order to be successful in future.
