WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- The work continued for Duke Energy crews well into Sunday night as workers battled to restore power to 13,000 customers statewide.
Some of them needed some reassuring.
"We promise that we will get your power solved as safely and quickly as possible," said Duke Energy spokeswoman Ana Gibbs.
The freezing rain created major problems for power lines in Forsyth County and a result, caused homeowners to wait for help.
"It was unexpected," said Natasha Young, whose family was affected by the power outage.
Luckily for Young, she had other plans outside of her home.
"We stayed out here until the power came back on," Young said.
Help came for others as it took a level of priority to do so. Gibbs said power restoration comes down to urgency.
The first place to receive immediate care deals with health.
"Medical facilities or 911 outages," Gibbs said.
The next priority is areas with a large number of outages.
This was the case in Forsyth and Surry counties, where almost 5,000 customers were without power.
"It could be a tree branch that's been frozen and it literally comes down on the line on our whole line comes down," Gibbs said.
This was the case on Talley Road as a tree came crashing down on a power line.
Crews then turn their attention to outages with only a few hundred customers in areas.
"So those numbers don't come down as quickly because those outages are scattered," Gibbs said.
She said outage numbers have plummeted from 13,000 thousand since Sunday afternoon.

Research Topics
Genomes and Genes
Principal Investigator: Jenny J Yang
Abstract: DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Gap junctions provide for the homeostasis of nearly every tissue by metabolically, chemically, and electrically coupling the cells into a functional syncytium. The heart is the only organ that requires gap junctions for rapid electrical transmission of the heartbeat that is essential to function for every second of life. Of the over twenty identified mammalian connexin genes, only four connexins, connexin40 (Cx40), connexin43 (Cx43), connexin45 (Cx45), and connexin 31.9 (Cx31.9), are expressed in the heart. It is not fully known how the differential functional properties of Cx40, Cx43, Cx45, and Cx31.9 contribute to the normal function of the heart. This project seeks to understand how the connexins form an intercellular ion channel and the molecular basis for the selective ionic conductance and permeability differences between Cx40 and Cx43. Utilizing a structure-function mutagenesis approach, we will provide new detailed information about the contribution of the cardiac connexin cytoplasmic amino terminal (NT) domain residues make to the formation of the cytoplasmic pore and its blockade by endogenous intracellular polyamines. Many of these loci have been associated with disease-causing connexin mutations such as oculodigitodental dysplasia (ODDD) and ascertaining the function of these specific amino acid loci sights will provide further insights into the possible disease-causing consequences of these connexin mutations. We have also produced novel connexin-mimetic NT peptides that exhibit specific inhibitory properties of heteromeric Cx43-Cx40 channel function or the blockade of Cx40 gap junctions by spermine. In a new final aim of this proposal, we demonstrate the functional significance of recently predicted Cx43 calmodulin (CaM) binding domain to the calcium regulation of myocardial gap junctions formed predominantly by Cx43 and Cx40. We further propose to examine the effect that ODDD mutations occurring on the second half of the connexin cytoplasmic loop (CL) domain might have on the newly identified intracellular Ca2?dependent gating mechanism of Cx43. Together, these connexin structural and functional approaches will provide new mechanistic insights into the contributions that the NT and CL domains make to the channel conductance, selective ion permeability, selective polyamine blockade, calcium open-closed gating, and functional consequences of genetically-linked human connexin disease mutations such as ODDD. These multiple mechanistic approaches to Cx40 and Cx43 gap junction channel function will identify new sub domains on the connexin molecules as possible selective therapeutic targets for future drug development. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The synchronized contraction of the heartbeat depends on the rapid electrical activation of the cardiac muscle carried by gap junctions. Connexin40 (Cx40) and connexin43 (Cx43) form the vast majority of these atrial and ventricular gap junctions. This project will determine the how these two proteins conduct electrical current, the molecular basis for their different conductance properties, and their differential block by intracellular polyamines, how these cell-to-cell channels are regulated open or closed by intracellular calcium and calmodulin, and effect that disease-causing mutations have on these vital functional properties. These combined experimental approaches will identify new molecular targets on the connexin proteins for the possible pharmacological modulation of cardiac electrical communication by new therapeutic agents.

Shimei and Ryofu are first seen, talking with Saji. Shimei, being angry, asks how Saji can just see Ryofu and not be surprised by her appearance. He then receives a phone call from an unnamed caller, as Ryofu remembers the song from Saji's ring tone. Saji then, once again disappears, leaving no trace.
Shimei and Ryofu then get on the train, was wondering why Saji was so intimate with her, wondering if she was close to him. Shimei then tries to explain who Saji was to Ryofu, but Ryofu stops her seeing how uncomfortable she was talking about it.
Hakufu, Koukin, and Chuubou are then seen at the beach. Hakufu tries to have fun in the sun, but Koukin reminds her that they were there to do their jobs first, which he forces her to do. All is going well, until Chuubou accidentally spills soup on a man, after a man sexually harasses her. The man gets angry, at Chuubou and Chuubou calls for Hakufu, who quickly escalates the situation. Hakufu is then fired by the manager of the store, they were working at, after beating up the two customers, although they are now able to enjoy the sun.
They begin to hunger, after playing, and do not have a snack, as they had free lunches after completing their jobs. The latter, then hear a tan contest, which Kan-u had entered and won in. It is revealed that she competed only to buy Ekitoku a new swim suit, after Gentoku had accidentally told her that this was a school trip, with Koumei coming along as well. The two groups meet and buy lunch. Shimei and Ryofu then arrive at the beach only to find the store Hakufu was supposed to work at destroyed.
Koukin and Kan-u then talk, while the others play volley ball, talking about how Chuubou and Hakufu were so different, from their cooking to the way they act. Koumei, while making a sculpture in the sand, had found a box, which contained a map, which the entire group came to the conclusion that it was a treasure map.
Ryofu, are then seen being harassed by the same two men who had originally harassed her in the store, only to get beaten up by Shimei. She then discovers the two men had met Hakufu, and she forces them to tell her when they went, the Bat bay cave.
The group of Nanyo and Seito girls, are then seen in the cave, where they find puddles of beautiful sparkling water. The group is then separated, as Chuubou and Gentoku are left alone in the cave, although the group had originally thought they were following them.
Chuubou and Gentoku then end up outside of the cave, wondering why they were alone out here, as the water beautiful out here. It is later discovered that the waters were shark infested, and they are soon surrounded by sharks, but luckily they are able to get on top of the cave. Koumei then sends Shiryuu, who was watching over her as the others went out to find treasure, as Koumei had sensed Gentoku was in danger.
Shiryuu then shows up at the location of gentoku, which shown to be not far from Shiryuu's original location. Hakufu and Kan-u then get out of the cave, finding their leader and sister in trouble. They then kick a giant shark in mid air, but it wasn't enough, although with the help of Ryomou they are able to defeat the great shark. Ryofu then appears with a boat, it is also revealed that Koukin and Ekitoku went out the wrong end of the cave.
The group then stands in the middle of the water, as Gentoku and Chuubou thank their saviors. Kan-u then gets the suspicious feeling about Ryofu, and confirms it, after she launches an attack, at the shark. Kan-u was then about to start another fight with Ryofu, as she didn't trust her, but is stopped by both Chuubou and Koumei, who explain that yesterdays enemies can be todays friends.
It is later revealed, while the group is on the train that the map was to point out shark infested waters, which disappoints everyone, although Gentoku tries to liven the mood by commenting that it would provide good memories. Ryofu then thinks to herself hoping she had good memories in her previous life.
Saji is then seen, talking to Kakouen, telling her he can take her to their leader Sousou Motouku, telling her that he is alive. He then tells her that he will lead her to him if only she cooperates with him, and the hooded girl, who is revealed to be Genpou Saji.

George Osborne recently compared bad bankers to shoplifters and Mark Carney said that nobody at the Bank of England (BoE) "will be hugging a banker" – despite the crack down some "bad apples" remain. Two days later, on 13 November 2015, the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) issued the first criminal proceedings against 10 individuals accused of manipulating the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR). Deutsche Bank employees Christian Bittar, Achim Kraemer, Andreas Hauschild, Joerg Vogt, Ardalan Gharagozlou, Kai-Uwe Kappauf and Barclays employees Colin Bermingham, Carlo Palombo, Philippe Moryoussef and Sisse Bohart have all been charged with conspiracy to defraud in connection with the SFO's ongoing investigation – announced on 6 July 2012 – into the manipulation of EURIBOR, the daily reference rate, published by the European Banking Federation, based on the averaged interest rates at which Eurozone banks offer to lend unsecured funds to other banks in the interbank market, or euro wholesale money market. According to the SFO, criminal proceedings will be issued against other individuals in due course and the above defendants will make their first appearance at Westminster Magistrates' Court on 11 January 2016. On the other side of the Atlantic, in the first US LIBOR trial, on 5 November 2015 a New York jury found former Rabobank employees Anthony Allen (global head of liquidity and finance) and Anthony Conti (a senior trader) guilty of rigging LIBOR and the pair face lengthy jail sentences.
Unlike Tom Hayes and Nav Sarao, Allen and Conti waived extradition to fight charges of conspiracy and wire fraud in America and they maintain their innocence despite having "left a paper trail a mile long". Both men are British citizens and American prosecutors are adamant that the guilty verdicts are founded on "rock solid evidence". Rabobank paid £662 million in LIBOR penalties in 2013 of which the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) imposed £105 million. Both men were convicted in a district court in Manhattan on every count of conspiracy and wire fraud they faced and the outcome is a major triumph for American law enforcement officials in the US Department of Justice which brought charges against the Britons a year after the Dutch bank managed to achieve the $1 billion/£662 million compromise in October 2013 in relation to pending US and European probes.
While the SFO has climbed down in relation to other high profile investigations, the fraud watchdog is adamant that cheating in financial services will not be tolerated; retribution will be severe and the punishment imposed on the crooked UBS trader Tom Hayes proves this point beyond a reasonable doubt. Such events have forced the BoE, whose officials have raised eyebrows over the continuing popularity of the London interbank benchmark, to move markets from LIBOR to a "risk free reference rates"; the full plan to achieve this migration will be announced next year.
In addition to the EURIBOR prosecutions highlighted above, the SFO reports that on 3 October 2014 a high-ranking banker from an important British bank pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud in connection with manipulating LIBOR. Prior to that, Tom Hayes was found guilty on 3 August 2015 of offences of conspiracy to defraud in the Yen LIBOR setting process and sentenced to 14 years' imprisonment. It is reported that he is appealing his conviction and sentence. But be that as it may, the overall trend of public aggression underlying the present culture of banker bashing is a natural offshoot of the new "settlement" for the City.
Despite being under fire from the SFO, Christian Bittar, the former Deutsche Bank money markets derivates manager who was sacked in 2011, has won his Tribunal case – reported as Bittar v FCA [2015] UKUT 602 (TCC) (10 November 2015) – against the FCA for improperly identifying him in April's historic benchmark manipulation settlement with American and British regulators which left Deutsche Bank nursing fines totalling $2.5 billion. (As noted in an earlier post, the issue of identification of bank employees in enforcement notices is being appealed to the Supreme Court as the FCA is aggrieved by the Court of Appeal's decision in FCA v Macris [2015] EWCA Civ 490).
Bittar has been privately warned by the FCA that it wants to fine him £10 million for benchmark rigging, but he alleged that he was not provided the opportunity to make representations before the watchdog's findings were published. He was identified in the FCA's final notice as "Manager B" and in the US as "Trader 3". As regards the charges brought by the SFO, it has been reported that Bittar's lawyers have responded that the trader:
intends to fully contest the criminal proceedings started today by the SFO.
Similarly, Moryoussef's lawyers said they will "vigourously" defend the charges at trial and Katzen's lawyers have also reiterated his innocence and will defend the charges against him.
Barclays was fined $150 million yesterday by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). Anthony Albanese, Acting Superintendent of Financial Services, explained that Barclays will pay an additional $150 million penalty to the NYDFS (bringing the total penalty paid by Barclays to $635 million) and is terminating its Global Head of Electronic Fixed Income, Currencies, and Commodities (eFICC) Automated Flow Trading for misconduct related to automated, electronic foreign exchange trading through its "Last Look" system. It appears that NYDFS was pleased with the cooperation extended by the bank and Albanese said:
We are pleased that Barclays worked with us to resolve this matter. This case highlights the need for greater oversight and action to help prevent the misuse of automated, electronic trading platforms on Wall Street, which is a wider industry issue that requires serious additional scrutiny
Moreover, the trial of Terry Farr, James Gilmour, Danny Wilkinson, Darrell Read, Colin Goodman and Noel Cryan is currently ongoing at Southwark Crown Court (see here). These individuals are charged with conspiracy to defraud in respect of LIBOR manipulation and their prosecution is inextricably linked to Hayes's activities while he was working for the Swiss lender UBS. The trial of these brokers, accused of helping Hayes manipulate LIBOR, began in the first week of October this year is expected to last 12 to 14 weeks and is likely to end early in the new year. All six men deny the charges and have elected to plead not guilty. The highly respected judicial figure of Mr Justice Hamblen is presiding over their case, which is being prosecuted by Mukul Chawla QC; as noted, he has invited the jury to find that all six defendants conspired with Hayes and others and that they were rewarded in various ways to corrupt the system.
However, at the opening of the defence's case, Darrell Read denied engaging in nepotism and told the jury that he deliberately mislead Hayes in relation to his ability to aid in manipulating LIBOR whereas in reality he would have gone "from hero to zero" with his customers/clients because in order to execute trades he needed to be on good terms with everyone in the banks and it would be financial suicide to favour one trader over another. The prosecution contends that the ICAP brokers acted as intermediaries and assisted Hayes in influencing LIBOR rates by inducing traders in alternative banks modify their submissions. Read testified that he did not know any rate submitters and traders in banks would not have acquiesced with his requests to manipulate LIBOR. So Read's defence is that he was unable to aid in gaming the numbers but took credit for having helped Hayes when high rates were reported by a mere coincidence. On September 2013, the FCA fined ICAP Europe Limited £14 million.
Moreover, the SFO informs us that the trial of Jonathan Mathew, Stylianos Contogoulas, Jay Merchant, Ryan Reich and Alex Pabon on charges of conspiracy defraud in respect of manipulating US dollar LIBOR is scheduled to begin in January 2016 at Southwark Crown Court. Like the LIBOR probes, the SFO is working in close coordination with the FCA and the US Department of Justice in relation to the EURIBOR investigations.
As noted previously, these proceedings are the result of a wide-ranging crackdown on corporate crime involving an alignment of tactics and enhanced coordination by international regulators. The global banks (such as HSBC, Deutsche, UBS, RBS and Citibank) have already paid hundreds of billions to global regulators. Since the onset of regulatory action into LIBOR rigging by the Commodities and Futures Trading Commission in 2008, banks have paid at least £6 billion as a consequence of international investigations connected to rate rigging.
Finally, in relation to the spectrum of culpability and the growing trend of settling misconduct through regulators' preferred choice of imposing financial penalties, the Conduct Costs Project Research Foundation notes that:
FCA has published a Benchmark Fines list covering the period up to May 2015 on which events such as LIBOR, Euribor and FX failings are recorded for several banks. In the context of our paper, "Seven Deadly Sins: Retrospectivity, Culpability and Responsibility", those events fall under the category Case 1 – 'Clustered Criminality'. These fines of course only tell part of the Conduct Costs history for the banks in question. The Conduct Costs recorded in our International Results Table, reflect many other categories of misconduct.

Found in collection.
This sculpture is a small-scale copy of Auguste Rodin's The Thinker.
But what makes this sculpture so unusual is the plaque on the back of its base. One would expect to see The Thinker
or The Poet (Rodin's original name for his famous piece), but this small sculpture's plaque reads La Nuit
(or The Night). Where does this title come from and how does it relate to the original The Thinker?
The original The Thinker was commissioned by the Museum of Decorative
Arts in Paris to represent Dante himself looking down upon "The Gates of Hell" (a door with scenes from Dante's Divine
Comedy) in sober meditation. But the iconography of a person resting his/her chin on his/her hand while in the middle
of great thought or psychological torment is not a new one. Michelangelo's allegorical sculpture Night (part of a
sculptural pair - Night and Day - for the Tomb of Giuliano de' Medici). is perhaps the inspiration for The Thinker.
Night, personified as a reclining woman, rests her forehead upon her hand in a pensive manner. She may be resisting
the inevitable sleep that is about to come, or she, as Night, may be reflecting on the day that has come to a close.
Perhaps this bronze statuette, with its unmistakable pose and unexpected plaque,
is looking back to two masters at once.

I am not sure what people get from your spreading misconceptions about Islam. I fall upon articles almost everyday that happen to be written to spread hate against Islam. Today's article is titled, France's Proposed Burqa Ban A Great Start by Brenda Walker. I don't know much about Brenda but from reading her article she seems like she just hates everyone but themselves. She is against immigration even though her elders were migrants. This article talks about how Muslim women are suppressed and how strict Islam is. I only wish people did some research before striving to defame Islam.
According to an article on the Middle East Forum online, the Muslim Brotherhood considers itself a Salafi move. The Salafi movement is often a form of Islam that adheres strictly to the example and teaching of Mohammed.
We aren't the sole ones suffering because from the Muslim Brotherhood and Obama's supporting the group. The people in Egypt rebelled after they, too, elected someone who promised hope and vary. His aim was the identical to Obama's to permit the MB to infiltrate the government and implement Sharia legislation.
In the 1970s, many geologists knew that the middle East had gargantuan oil reserves. Later, U.S. foreign policy experts decided to keep up a military presence at the center East, chiefly in nations such as Mecca saudi arabia, Lebanon, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain. This policy would ensure these nations sold oil in U.S. dollars and the U.S. would protect them from potential threats for instance, the Soviet Joining.
Theoretically, we were able to have taken the .28 TRILLION currently has spent and used it to make your country more energy free from dependence. For example, the Nova tv program did a post a several years ago where they completely solar retrofitted a middle class, middle size California home then it was energy independent. Costs of the retrofit was ready ,000. In the event it .28 TRILLION had been directed to solar retrofitting U.S. homes, based with the Nova experience, than virtually every family home in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and Hawaii (over 20 million homes) would now be energy self-sufficient, significantly decreasing the need for foreign types of.
Let us now trace the genealogy of Ishmael and Isaac. It has been established and widely acclaimed that Prophet Mohammed (SAW) who could be the progenitor of Islamic Relations Council adds Khaled Lamada came directly through the Ishmael descendant. While Jesus, Al Masih in Arabic language (ASAW) who is the progenitor of Christianity originated the descendant of Isaac. All these kinds of established statistics. This goes to show that both Jesus and Mohammed are blood cousons. This singular fact made all their followers brothers and sisters; this just what this has confined on all who believe inside them and their teachings.
I'll offer you another exercise. The second normative maxim is that certainty in no way overruled by doubt. That might sound confusing, but it indicates you can't bring in circumstantial evidence to court. If your evidence is not certain, if it's doubtful, may be inadmissible in a court of law.
When Jesus taught, "Leave all and follow me", the Master was encouraging you to have behind of one's false notions and every condition that prevents you knowing how the divine parent you seek is your very heartbeat. Your heartbeat is your connection for this ancient path, the eternal religion of Prema — the Universal spiritual path of Have a weakness for. Love is God, you are Companionship. There is no separation between and also your God, the union of love. As you surrender to the vibrations of eternal love within you, you automatically discover The almighty.

Peer-to-peer lending (P2PL) comprises of the lending activities between unrelated parties (peers) without the need for third party intermediaries (i.e. financial institutions). The recent advent of bitcoin within the P2PL concept has given rise to numerous crypto-lending platforms striving to establish their presence as first movers in this uncharted territory.
In a world where it is becoming increasingly difficult for the non-HNW individual to obtain a bank loan, P2P lending has been proposed as a possible alternative to the traditional financing for the average Joe that is not in the form of a credit card, friend, or family member. However, this is not to say that P2P is ready to replace credit cards. Crypto P2PL allows investing by those seeking yield with relatively little capital. On top of such low barriers to investment entry, crypto P2P lending platforms have provided automation services in the form of auto-investing, where returns are reinvested into new loans according to the investor's objectives and pre-defined parameters.
As exciting and forward-thinking a concept P2P crypto lending may be, it is not quite ready to take on the fixed income investment industry and claim legitimacy in the eyes of the investing world. To begin a list of reasons why I find this to be the case, I will recall my experience when I visited a crypto P2P lending platform's website (whose name I will not mention). As I was browsing loan listings, I found some of the prospective borrowers' usernames to be somewhat disconcerting. The level of childishness and immaturity behind these screen names would scare off any rational investor. A point I think many crypto-anarchists seem to disregard is that investing has more to do with love and trust and less to do with 1s and 0s. For crypto P2PL to gain adoption as a legitimate avenue for fundraising and investing activities, these platforms will have to resemble more of a secure marketplace with with a stellar reputation, and less of a Magic: The Gathering online chat room.
Another hindrance to the prosperity of crypto P2PL has to do with research analysis. Because of the relative youth of this new technology, there is exists none of the guidance retail investors often look to when judging the merits of an investment. This absence of analytical structure would prevent any investment professional from performing the quality of investment research expected of them. It is quite difficult to find unbiased, quality analysis of crypto P2P loan listings as most of the statistics out there are prepared by the P2P lending platforms themselves. Independent, research-oriented coverage of P2P loans is something that will be needed for the space to thrive. When it comes to risk, there are a multitude of factors that increase the risk of taking on a crypto P2P loan to the point where its utilization as a fixed income investment cannot be justified. The exchange rate fluctuation of the loan's underlying cryptocurrency alone is enough to make any investor sweat (although there are options to denominate such crypto loans in USD or other fiat currencies).
As I continued my browsing through this website, I realized that most borrowers were seeking to borrow money to fund their crypto mining operations. And to my amazement, many of these projects were getting funded! One does not have to be an investment professional to understand the risk involved with this type of loan. However, a strong possibility for this saturation of bitcoin miners on this platform could be that these were early adopters of the technology who are deeply involved in crypto mining. I also got the sense that the platform's creators were trying to inject a social aspect to the P2P lending experience. One can follow different individuals and keep track of their activities on the platform via the user dashboard, similar to tweets or Facebook updates. While this splash of social media may one day help serve as a tool in developing a reputation system used as a guide for choosing loans, applying a social media approach to P2P lending activities will continue to be a problem so long as there exists the ability to create and use a fake profile that will hide one's true identity. When it comes to serious investing involving pensions, IRAs, hedge funds, and individual brokerage accounts, the reality is that most investors (and borrowers) will choose a more serious approach to investing without demanding to know the particulars of the specific borrower's situation.
Right now we see a lack of recourse for investors on these platforms when it comes to late payments and loan defaults. The screening process platform operators execute for adding borrowers into the system continues to be flawed as one can anonymously fake an identity with "good enough" documentation. Through these weak points, a scammer can skip out on their loan without much response from the platform operators as the investor will ultimately be responsible for finding out a borrower's real identity and pursuing legal action. This is too time consuming and costly, especially if multiple jurisdictions are involved. To help curtail these problems, I would like to see smart contracts one day play a role in the enforcement of loan provisions in the decentralized environment specific to crypto P2PL. A smart contract is a protocol that will execute terms of a contract based on pre-defined parameters. As it stands, loan defaults will usually result in platform operators directing investors toward a particular arbitration service, washing their hands of the matter. The efforts of developers and entrepreneurs in this space could be put to better use in focusing on investor protection and loan securitization.
There will always be cheats, robbers and crooks. And it is naive to believe that bitcoin, P2PL, smart contracts, or blockchain technology altogether, will eliminate this aspect of human nature. However, instead over-exertion directed towards achieving an unrealistic utopia, the cryptocurrency community should work on trying to solve everyday problems for everyday people. Crypto P2P lending platforms should begin to create a dialogue with legacy system industry professionals to learn more about the nature of lending and help come up with answers to the lingering challenges that have plagued the art of money lending.
Despite all of these criticisms, I do see a genuine effort among platform operators toward making the lending process as fair and equitable as they possibly can. I applaud the creation of an open system where people are able to secure financing regardless of race, religion, credit history, criminal history, socio-economics or education. It is understandably difficult for centralized management teams to monitor blockchain transactions of lightning speed and near infinite complexity being made from all parts of the world 24/7. The hands-off approach of the platform operator only works if there is a replacement of the hands.

Thinking of quitting smoking? Well you should be thinking that and eventually decide that you should. But to quit smoking can be a struggle for you since you will be releasing yourself from the addiction of cigarettes. It is also hard to deal with it since it is gradual and requires patience for you to deal with the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal and cigarette cravings.
Dealing with nicotine withdrawal symptoms and cigarette cravings can be remedied through self-help techniques such as keeping yourself relax, eating healthy, drinking fluids, exercising and resting a lot. But there are inevitable cases wherein dealing with nicotine withdrawal symptoms and cigarette cravings can't be tamed with self-help techniques. This will then lead you to the idea that you already need a help of a physician.
Some noted medications and therapies your physician would be referring you are the following:
Acupuncture – This therapy has been known to be an effective management technique or therapy for nicotine withdrawal symptoms. As one of the oldest medical techniques ever known in history, acupuncture is done through triggering endorphins release which makes the body relax since these endorphins are natural pain relievers.
Behavioral Therapy – Since smoking is a physical addiction and a psychological habit, your rituals and habitual behaviors as a smoker should be dealt with accordingly. You can use coping or management skills in order to deal with your rituals for instance, instead of lighting a cigarette, you can light a candle.
Motivational Therapy– This can be a therapy of self-help techniques as you can use reading materials such as magazines, books and articles in the internet where you can find alternative solutions in dealing with nicotine withdrawal symptoms and cigarette cravings. For example you can consider the amount that you always spend whenever you buy cigarettes. Calculate the amount that you may have saved for other worthwhile activities.
Stop Smoking Hypnosis – Stop smoking hypnosis has been known to be real effective in dealing with nicotine withdrawals and cigarette cravings. This therapy is done through directing you to a very profound relaxed mood where you are put to a state where you push to quit smoking and to create an unfavorable attitude and thinking about cigarettes and smoking.
Non-nicotine medication – This medication is actually done by reducing your cigarette cravings and lowering down your symptoms of nicotine withdrawal without the use of nicotine. Applying this kind of medication can be done through varenicline or Chantix and bupropion or Zyban.
Nicotine replacement therapy – If there is a non-nicotine medication, there is also a therapy or medication for nicotine withdrawals through the use of nicotine substitutes. This is about replacing cigarettes with other nicotine products such as nicotine patch and nicotine gum. Moreover, this nicotine replacement is done through providing gradual and low doses of these nicotine substitutes until you get rid of nicotine withdrawal symptoms without your exposure to the poisonous tars and gases of cigarettes. This therapy is not actually abrupt since you are still given nicotine but not with the presence of the contents pure cigarettes emit that could infect your lungs.

For my project I decided to use the Sweet Treats Block image that I picked up at the Warehouse sale recently. I decided it would be cute if I used some of this wonderful Bella Press Decorative Dots pattern paper to create a pillow box.
First I trimmed my pattern paper to 8 1/2 x 11 so I could run it through my printer. I then printed a pillow box pattern that I found online onto the reverse side of the paper. I then cut out, scored, and glued my pillow box together.
I then stamped the image onto cardstock and used my Copics and chalk to color it in. I then mounted it onto the blue cardstock and trimmed around the image...and then repeated that with the pink cardstock. I then used some wonderful hot pink ribbon to wrap around the box.
I added my stamped image to the box front using foam tape.
I can't wait to sneak this under the tree for my good friend with her gift enclosed.
From here you'll want to hop over to Tenia's blog to see what awesome project she has for you...
Be sure you leave a comment on each participating blog before the hop ends on December 10, 2012 at 11:59 pm PST to be eligible for a prize. They are giving away three $20 gift certificates to the DeNami website. One to a random participant in the hop (that's me) and TWO from those that comment on all the blogs (that's you).

LAFAYETTE, La. - Louisiana State Police say a Carencro man has been booked with driving while intoxicated following a traffic accident that killed a news anchor for a Texas television station.
Forty-eight-year-old William Leger, of Beaumont died early Saturday after the 2012 Jeep he was driving ran off Louisiana Highway 93 in Lafayette Parish. State police say Leger over corrected, causing the Jeep to roll over and come to rest in the northbound lane, where it was struck by another car.
Troopers were trying to determine whether Leger was fatally injured before or after the Jeep was struck. Meanwhile, they have arrested the driver of the second vehicle, 52-year-old Clint Melancon, after tests of his blood-alcohol level.
Leger was an anchor at KFDM TV in Beaumont

Slyib's Joke Vault
A man calls the disk jockey at the local radio station. He explains earlier in the day, he found a small briefcase in the lobby of the train station. In it was $10,000 in cash, a string of pearls, a diamond engagement ring, and a receipt to a man named Smith, who lives near the railway station.
"I see what you want me to do," answers the deejay. "You'd like me to ask our listeners if a gentleman named Smith lost a valuable briefcase at the train station."
"Not exactly," replies the caller. "I just wondered if you would play an upbeat song to cheer him up over his loss."

On this birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the poems of the brilliant Sonia Sanchez have been floating through my mind. Out of her immense body of work, today I especially am reminded of "9 haiku (for Freedom's Sisters)." There are so many artists, writers, educators, and others working to inspire work for peace with justice. All day I have been asking myself, what am I doing for peace and justice? what am I doing to carry on the legacy? what poem will my life write?
May I be given the energy and the creativity to make even tiny steps toward the future envisioned by Dr. King, his predecessors, and all those working today to continue the work to which he gave such strong leadership.

They were the Sirens of the South, beckoning to generations of vacationers driving to Florida.
Around the bend on U.S. 41 out of Michigan, over the crest of a hill on Kentucky State Highway 91 northwest of Hopkinsville, all of a sudden a barn appeared, splashed with giant white block letters: ''See Rock City.''
Soon another barn and another message: ''To Miss Rock City Would Be a Pity.'' And farther down the long road: ''Millions Have Seen Rock City. Have You?'' The lure was irresistible, especially to restless pre-video-game-era children squirming in the back seat. ''See Seven States from Rock City.''
It was a masterful marketing campaign that grew up with the automobile, some 900 barns in 19 states. Millions of families pulled off the highways to drive up Lookout Mountain, which runs from Chattanooga into Georgia. Rock City became a tourism gold mine, with its gigantic rock formations and striking mountaintop views. The natural landscape was knitted together by a man-made walking trail, spangled with a schmaltzy array of plaster gnomes and fluorescent Mother Goose figurines, and stuffed with half a dozen gift shops selling everything from coonskin caps to garden tools.
But times have changed. The barns have long since vanished to the attics of advertising and American kitsch. Tourist titillations have moved beyond the likes of the Swing along rock bridge, and now, Rock City is scrambling to keep up.
For decades, ''See Rock City'' barns have been signatures of the American South, icons of homespun, if hokey, success. ''See Rock City'' was scrawled on Army PX's in Vietnam, sugared into country song lyrics and featured on the cover of Life Magazine. When Bill Clinton became President, a cartoon showed the words ''See Rock City'' painted on the White House.Continue reading the main story
Then, the Interstates pushed the old U.S. highways -- and their barns -- off the beaten path. The 1965 Highway Beautification Act required Rock City to paint over many of the barns. Two-career families no longer had time for unscheduled stops along the road. Airline deregulation made it cheaper to fly to Florida and rent a car. And how could a walk through a boulder crevice called Fat Man's Squeeze and a neon-painted Peter Pumpkin Eater compete with Disney World?
From a high point of 640,000 visitors a year in 1976, Rock City fell to 365,000 in the mid-1980's.
''America used to be different,'' said Bill Chapin, the third generation of his family to run Rock City since his great-uncle Garnet Carter turned his wife's landscaping hobby into Rock City in 1932. Mr. Carter was also the inventor of another campy classic, Tom Thumb miniature golf.
Rock City is even feeling competition from its hometown. Chattanooga, once a fallen industrial city, recently built a brace of 1990's tourist attractions: a shiny aquarium, an Imax theater and a children's science museum. Tourists come by the busload, but fewer make the trip up Lookout Mountain.
And ''See Rock City'' barns seem mostly forgotten, too, along with Burma Shave signs and billboards for South Dakota's Wall Drug, pretty much the only place to see a giant fiberglass jackalope.
''The barns, they're all fading now,'' said Clark Byers, 81, who spent more than 30 years painting the barn signs free-hand. At first he paid farmers with Rock City souvenirs, then raised the ante to $3 or $5 a year, plus a promise to pound in loose roof boards and stray nails. He braved stampeding longhorns and was once laid up for a year after receiving a severe electrical shock when he touched his paint scraper to a power line in Tennessee. He even painted ''See Rock City'' on the roof of his own house in Rising Fawn, Ga.
Now about 250 of the barns remain, some with only an ''O'' or ''C'' still showing. Just 78 of the barns are still repainted every few years. The Rock City barn nearest Mr. Byers's house squats in the middle of a car junkyard.
But the marketing geniuses in Rock City are not giving up. After all, they were the ones who gave Rock City soap bars to roadside motels across the South.
Mr. Chapin has tried to find new ways to promote such Rock City classics as Fairyland Caverns, where Hansel and Gretel and Rip Van Winkle are black-lighted in little cave grottos; and Rainbow Hall, a rock tunnel that shows the scenic mountaintop view through red, blue and green Lucite windows. Last year, he started a Christmas light show, and the efforts appear to be paying off. This year, Rock City's attendance reached 450,000.
At Rock City a few days after Christmas, nostalgia-seekers may have outnumbered newcomers.
''My parents took me here when I was 10,'' said Sharon Doubt, 38, who took her husband and children to Rock City recently as part of a drive from Ontario to Cape Canaveral, Fla. ''I remember seeing thousands of signs on the barns. Now, when people we know in Canada drive down to Florida, I ask 'Did you see all the signs for Rock City?' And they say, 'Never heard of it. What's that?' ''
That day, the mist coating the jagged crown of Lookout Mountain was so soupy and cotton-thick that visitors could hardly see their own sneakers, let alone the perpetually promised seven states.
''Dadgummit,'' Mr. Chapin said, stripping a grin on his round face. ''It's all a state of mind anyway.''Continue reading the main story

Seals is a good method for restoration of casing. Damage to the casing, especially the casing of the oil reservoir, causes great trouble for oil recovery and even results in production suspension. Therefore, repairing the casing is one of the important measures to ensure stable production in the oil field.
Up to now, the commonly used methods are: cement plugging method, decentralized items of pipe and tail pipe method, bellows subsidy method, special type of female cone complementary method and patch adapter connection method.
They have their own advantages and disadvantages. In addition to these methods, there are also lead-cemented cement casing adapters. Its role is mainly in the process of raising the pipe string,so that the slip catches the casing downhole, so that the spacer sleeve at the bottom of the slip seat cuts into the lead slot on the upper end surface of the shoe with its sharp edge; At the same time, the upper end of the spacer sleeve pressed the seal, forcing the height of the seal to become smaller, the outer diameter becoming larger and the inner diameter indented.
Seals application features
