It seems Rift patch 1.7 is where we'll finally see some changes to the cleric souls. In my eyes this has been a long time coming as the healing souls in particular have been rather neglected. There is a whole list of changes with more being promised in patch 1.8. I'm honestly pleased with what I've seen so far providing it makes it to the live servers. Some of my concerns have been addressed while others are still pending. In either event, the healing souls are only improving and that is a good thing in my eyes.
The Justicar Nerf
Trion went a different direction with starting the Justicar nerf than I suggested but that is okay. Doctrines will no longer benefit from the mana reduction provided by Healer's Creed. This effectively increases the cost of using them by 30%. The community (strangely) is up in arms for the most part. The crowd that realizes this is necessary doesn't see it as a big deal. Doctrine of Loyalty costs 210 mana currently. This change makes it more difficult to spam it but it isn't a huge deal. I think there is a need for more changes but we'll see. The downside is that group healing in the Sentinel and Warden souls wasn't really improved. I can see people being upset about that.
I am a big Purifier fan. That is the type of cleric I like to play and be. There are some major issues with the soul at the moment. The blessings, which are a big part of our gimmick, are terrible. For the amount of points required they just don't cut it. This update does not address that at all but we did get a lot of help.
Surging Flames: The triggered heal now has a 20 meter radius.
Divine Cascade: Removed.
Gathering of the Ancestors: New spell available at 38. Puts an absorb shield on up to 10 party or raid members within 35 meters. Applies a blocker that prevents being affected by it again for 20 seconds (this is a different blocker from the one applied by Ward of the Ancestors and the two don't block each other, but they don't stack). 30 second cooldown.
Asphodel's Purifier Crystal: 4 point bonus now reduces damage taken by 7% for 10 second. Now overwrites and cannot be overwritten by Protect the Flock.
Rise of the Phoenix: New spell available at 44 points. Resurrects with 50% health and mana. Usable in combat.
Divine Cascade was a joke of an ability and won't be missed. The group shield is interesting and relatively useful but it is really just there to say that we do have a group "heal." Surging Flames getting a larger radius is pretty useful. As I advocated it, it is also nice to see that the soul will be getting a combat resurrection spell.
The Warden also had some decent changes but still not enough to turn it into the group-focused healing soul I believe it was designed to be.
Waterjet: Reduced its benefit from Spell Power.
Healing Showers, Orbs of the Tide: Both now have a 20 meter radius.
Healing Cataract: Now has a 25 meter radius and affects 10 party or raid members.
Ripple: Now has a 20 meter radius.
Cascade: No longer costs mana.
River of Life: New spell available at 44 points. Resurrects with 50% health and mana. Usable in combat.
Healing Showers and Healing Cataract now have a realistic healing radius. This turns Healing Showers from an absolutely useless ability into something that someone might cast. They still have longer than necessary cooldowns and do not otherwise improve. The same tactic has been used with Ripple. More range, no other improvement. The Cascade change is a true upgrade. Healing-soul clerics cannot return their mana effectively (and that would be OK if Chloromancers suffered the same way) and this gives the Warden a fighting chance at it. The Warden also receives a battle resurrection spell. There isn't really any big change here other than to make abilities that you would rarely use potentially more attractive.
The Sentinel seems to have received the lightest touch so far. That isn't too terribly bad as, in my opinion, the Sentinel tree is by far the most useful of the three healing souls. I still believe more can be done of course.
Healing Communion, Healing Benediction: Both now have a 20 meter radius.
Marked by the Light: Now has a 15 meter radius.
Life's Return: Now has a 5 minute cooldown.
If you're sensing a pattern here you're right. Instead of making the Sentinel's group heals more effective they just earned themselves a larger radius. There are no upgrades here other than bringing the combat resurrection in line with all other similar ones. I don't see much for folks to get excited about.
A Start
I still don't believe that the cleric healing souls are where they need to be. It is good that Trion is addressing them. It is great that something is changing but, on the whole, they still haven't been under the microscope like other classes. In some cases that is good. In others, it is bad. In this case I'm afraid it is bad because of a few issues I have:
- The three healing clerics souls don't have clear distinctions about what makes them unique
- Outside of healing a main tank they don't offer very much to a raid
- Somewhat bland and unexciting to play. Total lack of synergy within the individual soul
Can we do our job? Sure, I would never argue that I'm not effective. Are we irreplaceable? No. Outside of one cleric for the main tank you really could swap a chloromancer in with ease. There should be something these souls do that nobody else can!

Financial guru Dave Ramsey spoke with Good Day Atlanta on Tuesday on rising college costs. He had some ideas on how to keep those costs down.
Dave's tips on how to break the cycle and graduate debt free:
1. Research what you can afford.2. Apply for scholarships—lots of them. Make applying for scholarships your full-time job. Every little bit helps. 3. Get to work!—Get a part-time job and work your way through. It's proven that students who work get higher grades too!4. Stay local—in state tuition can be affordable. 5. Commute or live on campus and eat dorm food—don't finance a lifestyle by living off campus, etc.

Just got a call from Gary and Sandy, they went out to eat after the tournament, when they got home someone had stolen all there left over drinks. I know it was not any of our players. We have the best and most respectful bunch there is. If anyone hears anything please let me know.
You can play peter pan any day of the week. A big draw ( for me ) is getting to play those coveted 1 or 2 times a year ball golf courses.. That stinks!
nice shot on 18 eric! there was another ace by a casual player on 11 as well.
and half of 596 is 298.
Actually Bird thats a great idea. Think of a concession stand at Smithville so when you want to play 54 you dont have to drive all the way back in town for a snickers, or a nice waterfall at cliff...that would be pretty sweet, and yes bleachers at Prarie Center so the families that come out to watch their brothers/fathers/cousins play soccer could have a place to sit instead of in the fairway at #11. All great ideas sir, keep them coming!

Narrow your search
Personal finance & budgeting software.
Quicken 2010 is a solid finance package, especially for novices, but offers little that's substantively new.
Quicken 2008 is a solid finance package and a great choice for novices, but there isn't a compelling reason to upgrade from the 2007 version.
Intuit Quicken 2007 Premier offers a thorough overhaul of its interface, as well as useful new features and conveniences that other financial software products can't match.
Quicken Premier 2006 is a great personal finance program that lacks the killer features to warrant an upgrade from Quicken 2005. Users of Quicken 2004 or earlier versions should make the leap, though.
Quicken's easy setup tools are great for newcomers, but users of Quicken 2004 need not upgrade.
Quicken's new, improved interface makes it Microsoft Money's equal in the financial planning arena. Upgrade if you're using Quicken now, and switch from Money if you're a big-time investor.
If you use desktop Quicken, this mobile companion is a must. Once you train yourself to use it regularly, Pocket Quicken will help you keep up-to-the-minute tabs on your finances.
A supereasy setup and a great design put Quicken 2004 on top, especially for novices, but Quicken 2003 users probably don't need to upgrade.
Once upon a time, Quicken was our favorite money manager, but version 2002 leaves us cold. Don't bother upgrading, and if you want today's most innovative personal finance program, switch to Money.
Quicken 2001's overwhelming interface and poor planning tools belie its age. Unless you're a serious investor or already happy with a previous version of Quicken, you'll want to consider switching to the easier Money.

How cost-cutting hurt movies
Source: @johnaugust
#screenwriting #television #film
"Gregory Poirier argues that movies have suffered because of misguided cost-cutting:
A few years ago (pre-strike, though it is impolitic to say so), studios developed lots of material. Many creative minds (that would be writers) doing lots of good work led to lots of options for the studios as to what made it to the screen. Even though there was a lot more development then, the costs were small compared to the rest of the movie-making process. Writers are, for better or worse, usually a tiny percentage of a major studio film's budget. As the corporations that own the studios searched for ways to cut spending, writers became an obvious target. All of these writers being paid for things that never got made? Preposterous! Development funds were slashed and the number of good scripts in circulation cratered.
Ironically, although this has been difficult for writers as a whole, the ones hardest hit by this disastrous policy are the studios themselves. They have crippled themselves in their ability to make good films.
Screenwriters are essentially the research and development departments of the film industry. Like any other business, a quick way to boost profits is to cut way back on research. But that costs companies in the long run, because they're unlikely to have innovative products down the road.
Television hasn't cut back in the same way. Even with the rise of reality television, the number of pilots ordered has increased, reaching a high of 169 produced pilots last year.
I don't think it's coincidence that TV has hit so many home runs lately. They're taking more swings.
Television pilots cost several million dollars each — more money than any feature is likely to spend on a script. But in TV, shooting a pilot that doesn't get picked up isn't considered a failure. It's par for the course. It's the cost of doing business.
Poirier wishes movie studios would emulate the TV mindset:
More writers working on more projects, with more freedom as to where the story leads, and with the knowledge that they have partners at the studio they can trust to see the solutions as well as the issues; this is what will return movies to their rightful place as the most fertile ground for good storytelling. The corporations that run Hollywood now and the MBAs that develop for them must come to see that writers are, in practicality, the smallest expense in the entire pipeline.
There's always the risk of a golden-age fallacy — things were so much better back then— and truthfully, writing for television can suck in its ……….."

Salar Abdoh
Salar Abdoh was born in Iran and attended Wellington School in Somerset for a short time. His father was a wealthy and prominent cultural figure but at the time of the revolution in Iran, Salar's father became a target for Islamic fundamentalists and faced execution if he remained in Iran. So, with his father and two brothers, Salar fled for the US at the age of 14. Within six months of reaching the States, Abdoh's father died, leaving Abdoh and his two brothers homeless in Los Angeles. The boys travelled through the US visiting New Orleans, Pennsylvania, the Bay Area and New York. Eventually, Salar received his diploma and went to Berkeley to study Near Eastern History and Literature.$$$Upon graduating, he spent some time working with his older brother, the well-known Iranian avant-garde playwright and director Reza Abdoh. After the death of Reza from AIDS in 1995, Salar Abdoh got his Masters degree in Creative Writing at City University in New York. He now teaches at the same University and lives in New York City.$$$The Poet Game, written in 1999, the tale of Islamic fundamentalists planning an attack on the World Trade Center, is Salar Abdoh's first novel and was published by Faber in July 2002. His second novel Opium was published in 2004.

Michael's Chunky Sauté Potatoes in Turkey Dripping
This is a once-a-year special treat for us: Michael's crisp, crunchy sauté potatoes. The secret, he says, is cooking them in one layer – and they are absolutely scrummy with slices of cold bacon (or gammon) and turkey, and dipped into chutney. Serve with pickles.
Serves 4–6
Peel the potatoes to start with and, if any of them are particularly big, slice them in half. Now par-boil them in salted water for 8–10 minutes before draining them and cutting them into ½-in (1-cm) chunks or slices.
Next, divide the dripping equally between the 2 frying pans and heat till smoking hot, then add the chunks or slices of potato in one layer. Turn the heat down to medium and cook them for about 10 minutes on one side, then flip them over, one by one, and cook for approximately the same time. They should be golden and crispy on the outside and soft in the centre.
Remove to some kitchen paper, to get rid of any excess fat, and then to the serving dish, lined with crumpled baking parchment. Sprinkle them with sea salt before you send them to the table.

Studies in Sea Ice
Speaking with Trees
The photos of Roberta Holden reveal a part of the world that is so foreign and difficult to comprehend, especially for those of us living in the southern hemisphere. Her series document trips through Arctic Ice and the lives of northern arctic communities. The self-relience of these people are evident and incredible as we see the hunting, resourcing and distribution of local life sources. How people live for generations on end in these lands is quite remarkable and says so much to our comparatively soft and ridiculous comforts of western society. http://www.nobarriersphotography.com/NBPh_bio.php
These photos would really do justice and speak in bigger volumes in print. Xavier Encinas has produced a postcard box set for Studies in Ice. http://www.xavierencinas.com/#134926/Studies-in-Sea-Ice

Ordering for a Team?
Let our Team Division Help!
Item has a Minimum Qty
I use this cap without the strap. It is not too tight like other swim caps and I can easily get it on over my long hair put up in a pony tail. I put conditioner on my hair to protect it from the pool chemicals and this cap over it. My hair gets wet but the conditioner protects. It is comfortable…no headache. I''ve been using this same style cap for many years…and recommend it to friends.
bought this bathing cap for the pool. What attracted me to this cap is that it has a strap that helps keep the cap on my head. what disappointed me is that it is not big enough for an adult head.
My hair is thick and this cap is great for the first few weeks after a haircut. Doesn''t keep water out but helps keep water out of my ears. Don''t fasten the strap too tight or the fasten button will pop out and there''s no way to repair it. Still the best and best price available in my search.
This cap is plenty big enough for a thick head of hair. So far the strap is holding well. I like it tight and other caps have ripped at the snaps. My hair doesn''t stay completely dry, but I can enjoy my morning laps without earplugs, and that was my main reason for purchasing. Price is right, competitive with others that didn''t last as well.
I use my caps right after i have colored my hair , or i just don''t wont to wet my hair, the cap is large and fits all my hair,
This cap is quite comfortable, easy on and off. The snap on the chin strap pulled off the cap the very first time I unsnapped-fortunately for me I wasn''t planning to use the strap.
It works great and stays snug. The latex hat was a little loose and let more water in. They don''t really keep the water out but it helps and keeps my head warm without squishing it. I was glad to find it because the company that I used to get the cap from discontinued it. Thanks for having these hats.
water Arabics
I bought two caps and one is fine and one is not.
The strap snap on one cap didn''t work
I will say the return policy was extremely easy. No cost to return the cap and Swim Outlet will either replace it or give me a refund.
I can''t really comment on the cap I kept yet because the proof is in the "using"and I have only used it once
It fits better than the previous one...but it is still a little large for my head

Given a choice between a product made in the United States and an identical one made abroad, 78 percent of Americans would rather buy the American product, according to a new survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center.
More than 80 percent of those people cited retaining manufacturing jobs and keeping American manufacturing strong in the global economy as very important reasons for buying American. About 60 percent cited concern about the use of child workers or other cheap labor overseas, or stated that American-made goods were of higher quality.

Governor Christie released an unexpected movie trailer yesterday called "No Pain, No Gain" and he warns New Jerseyans that this is coming to a shore town near you! Christie's camp says that this trailer is a spoof "created in the spirit and tradition of over-the-top summer blockbusters," but in the clip, the governor has a serious message. This message focuses on the importance of fixing the benefit and pension crisis in the Garden State.
After people got wind of the trailer, social media was buzzing and the Governor took to Twitter himself to jokingly address the people of New Jersey.
"And for all you trolls are there: We know. The book was better #NoPainNoGain". This tweet references the 2015 fiscal year budget.
The trailer features the governor, the legislature and The Rock! But unfortunately, it's since been taken down.

Barrett Brown is an American activist, author, and freelance writer/journalist. His work has appeared in the Guardian, Vanity Fair, Huffington Post, Businessweek, True/Slant, Skeptical Inquirer and many other outlets. He has appeared as a guest on MSNBC, Fox News and Russia Today and as an interviewee in three recent documentary films: We Are Legion, Future Radicals, and Terms and Conditions May Apply.
He is the founder of Project PM, a distributed think-tank which researches and reports on matters related to the intelligence contracting industry. More recently, he has been misrepresented in the media as a spokesperson for the hacktivist collective known as Anonymous. He's a co-author on Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design and the Easter Bunny, and had been working on additional books, with topics such as the failures of American media punditry and the early history of Anonymous, while maintaining a blog. Previously, Barrett had served as Communications Director for Enlighten the Vote.
Although Barrett had a serious side, he was also noted for his irreverence and use of humor, satire and hyperbole, demonstrated through writings for National Lampoon and The Onion and is often described as a modern-day Hunter S. Thompson.
Having previously been raided by the FBI on March 6, 2012 and not arrested or charged, on September 12, 2012 Barrett Brown was again raided and this time arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation while he was online participating in a Tinychat session. He was subsequently denied bail and detained without charge and adequate medical treatment for over two weeks while in the custody of US Marshals. In the first week of October 2012, he was finally indicted on three counts. related to alleged activities or postings on popular websites such as Twitter and YouTube.
On December 4, 2012 Barrett was indicted by a federal grand jury on twelve additional counts related to data from the Stratfor breach. Despite his lack of direct involvement in the operation and stated opposition to it, he faces these charges simply for allegedly pasting a hyperlink online. On January 23rd, 2013 he was indicted a third time on two more counts, relating to the March 2012 FBI raid(s) on his apartment and his mother's house.
After some of the worst charges were dropped, Barrett entered a guilty plea to 3 counts for which he now faces 8.5 years max in prison. He is currently detained in Seagoville, TX while awaiting sentencing, which will occur on November 24, 2014. At this critical time, with such a prominent internet activist facing an uncertain future, he needs our unwavering help and support. We encourage you to donate to his defense, so that we can cover all the legal costs related to his case.

By Greg Smith
Publication: theday.com
Groton — Santa Claus parked his sleigh for the day in favor of a ride aboard a Los Angeles class attack submarine during his visit Tuesday to the Naval Submarine Base.
To the cheers of a crowd of military families, Santa stood atop the sail of the USS San Juan as it was guided by tugboats to its pier. The San Juan is home following several weeks of routine operations.
Families were welcomed to the base Tuesday not only to greet returning submariners, but to allow children to share their Christmas wishes with Santa.
Zoe Benfante, who was first in line to greet Santa, made a special request. She passed along a note asking that her father somehow return home in time to celebrate her fourth birthday Wednesday.
As luck would have it, Electronics Technician 2nd Class Anthony Benfante, Zoe's father, arrived home Tuesday, ahead of schedule, with the crew of the USS Mississippi.
After handing her note to Santa — also known as Chief Electrician's Mate Curtis Olson — Zoe was told to open the large gift-wrapped box at Santa's side. She flipped back the box top to reveal her dad crouched inside.
"Daddy, how'd you get in there?" was Zoe's first question before embracing her father in a hug.
It quickly turned into a group hug with his other daughter, 18-month-old Willow, and wife Tina.
"It's something she's going to remember forever," Tina Benfante said. "Santa brought Daddy home for Christmas."
The Navy also handed out nearly 1,000 toys Tuesday, donated by Operation Homefront, which in conjunction with Dollar Tree collected and distributed toys in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey.
"This is a great opportunity to show appreciation for our military families, especially our children," said Jamie Biondi, commanding officer of USS San Juan and a father of four.
Leftover toys will be provided to the annual Caring and Sharing program and included in holiday food boxes to be distributed to military families.

The clique is about a group of girls from high society Westchester, New York. It basically says it on the cover, they are THE clique. Enter: Claire Lyons, the dorky girl from Florida who is more clueless than a fifth grader. Will Claire be able to prove to the leader, Massie, that she's got the stuff to strut?

These books are hilarious & just really good. Its about these girls that are really rich except one of them which it reveals later on in the second book. And they are in the TPC (The Pretty Commitee) They are the it girls & the most popular girls at their school. The first book starts when their in 5th grade I think. You should definently read these books, they will make you relate to their problems a lot & if your having a bad day this will for sure brighten you day up a bit.

I couldn't believe how much I laughed out loud when I read this book. You find yourself really loving these girls even though they make shallow look deep. Massie and her fellow Clique members rally together to make Claire Lyons (the new girl) feel awkward and an outsider. But they didn't bank on Claire being so resourceful. What's so great about all these girls is that they're not as simple as you first think they are. They all have secrets that they don't want any one to know. They hide behind their fancy labels and trendy clothes. Discovering these secrets gives you an honorary membership to their clique. It also makes you look at yourself and the mean things you've done to try and be "in" with the in crowd.

Debbie Goodwin
A dancer since childhood, Debbie began teaching and performing Argentine Tango in 1996. She studies continuously both here and in Buenos Aires with a variety of renowned Argentine Tango masters.
On a foundation of early training in jazz, tap and musical theater, Debbie earned her Bachelors Degree in Dance from California State University, Sacramento in 1998 and her Masters in Dance Education in 2001. Her Masters Thesis Project, the show "¡Tango! A Story of Sacramento's Argentine Tango Community" played to sold-out houses in October 2001 followed by ¡Tango! Rhythms of The Heart (October 2002). She continues to create and produce sold out dance productions such as, "Tango, A Romantic Ritual" (Feb 2008 & 2009, available on DVD) ,"Tango House" (July 2009), All About Tango (April 2011) and Tango Tales (Feb 2012).

From American Swing to Argentine Tango
Before establishing Social Dance Cultures, a non-profit supporting development of community through dance, she created the highly successful "Rugcutter" dance program in Auburn, California. Focused on adolescents, her classes in social swing, performance skills, jazz technique and choreography for vocal performers were extremely popular. She instilled a love and respect in her students for the social origins of American Swing just as she does for the Argentine Tango by integrating authentic movement, music, and social customs in both her teaching and choreographies.
Tango Con*Fusion
Debbie is the organizing force behind the formation of the all-women Tango Con*Fusión Dance Company where she devotes her artistic attention as a choreographer and featured dancer. Since its inception in January 2004,Tango Con*Fusión has performed original choreography in two ground-breaking all-female tango stage shows with live music and international casts (Leading Ladies of Tango – December 2006, Herbst Theatre/San Francisco; and Glamour Tango – May 2009, Logan Square Auditorium/Chicago). Tango Con*Fusión has been featured in a documentary playing on the international tango film festival circuit and on national television networks (Latin Eyes & Univisión).
Other projects include the 2nd International Queer Tango Festival/Buenos Aires, the 1st International Queer Tango Festival/San Francisco, and the International Dance Festival/New York City and in modern dance venues (i.e. WestWave Dance Festival at YBCA Theater – August 2008) of the San Francisco Bay Area. The company was selected from over 70 applicants from the US and abroad to receive a grant via Dance Mission to premiere Vorágine, a half-evening length work, in the Down & Dirty Dance Series at Dance Mission Theater/San Francisco – January 2010. And, they accepted the prestigious invitation to perform at Congress Internacional de Tango Argentino in Buenos Aires March 2010 as well as perform with Tanghetto in 2011.
John Campbell
John's first classes were with George Guim. He has studied intensively with Nito y Elba, Orlando Paiva, and Osvaldo Zotto y Lorena Ermocida, Luciana Valle, Miriam Larici y Hugo Patyn, Fabian Salas y Carolina de Rivera, Diego di Falco y Carolina Zocalski, Fernanda Ghi y Guillermo Merlo, Gustavo Navierra and Sebastian Arce and Mariana Montes. He has studied both in the United States and in Buenos Aires, Argentina with these special teachers, sampling as well a rich variety of other masters. John danced leading roles in ¡Tango! and Tango! Rhythms of The Heart, as well as Tango: A Romantic Ritual. He provided substantial support to both productions. He produced the videos of the shows as well.
John and Debbie have worked together since 1996 developing their own style and teaching methods. Currently, their dance focus as a couple is on improvisation and refining musicality, lead and follow.
John is an eye surgeon, and managing partner of MarinEyes.
Pier Voulkos
Pier Voulkos is a former professional modern dancer who started her dance career in San Francisco with Ed Mock and retired from the Mark Morris Dance group in 1989. Through the 1980's in New York she also worked with choreographers Daniel Peters, Diane Martel, Donald Byrd, and Rosalind Newman. As a theatrical designer in 1986 she received two separate collaborative commissions for theatrical set and costume design, one funded through the Visual Art Program, New York and the other funded through the New Works Program, Massachusetts Council on the Arts and Humanities. Since discovering Argentine Tango in 1997 she has become totally immersed in its rich social culture, its history, its music and its improvisation and creative possibilities. She currently teaches Argentine Tango in San Francisco with her partner Daniel Peters at the Metronome Dance Center, classes at the Cellspace Alternative Milonga and in Berkeley at The Beat and is a founding member of Tango Con*Fusión
Dance Company.
Daniel Peters
Daniel began his professional dance career in San Francisco dancing for Ed Mock and Company (1979 – 1981). After moving to New York's Lower East Side with the lovely and talented Pier Voulkos, he began choreographing for White Dog and PS 122, as well as dancing in the companies of Donald Byrd and The Group, Rosalind Newman, and Jim Self. Daniel has studied tango with Christy Cote, Julian Miller Ramil and Homer Ladas. Mr. Peters is also a filmmaker. He makes 16mm silent tango films for live music performances and has worked with the tango band Trio Garufa.
Rose Vierling
Rose started dancing ballet, tap and jazz as a child. She fell in love with partner dancing in high school and was soon organizing group classes so that she could continue to learn. Rose started dancing Salsa and Tango when she moved to San Francisco in 1999. Certified by the Ballroom Dance Teacher's College and DVIDA with high honors, Rose started teaching at The Metronome Dance Center and later at Cheryl Burke Dance and The Pick School of Dance. Also an avid performer, Rose performs and teaches at events around the Bay Area such as the 49er half time show and at both the San Francisco and Sacramento Ethnic Dance Festivals.

American Lifeline was founded in 1991 by one of the world's leading food bacteriologists, Dr. Robert Deibel, Chairman of the University of Wisconsin's Department of Bacteriology, and his colleague and respected food bacteriologist, David Sullivan.
Since its inception American Lifeline has pursued a scientific and highly ethical approach to its business. That is why Florajen is manufactured with enough live cells to work—over 20 billion per capsule—and it is priced so that everyone can afford its benefits.
Availability: Usually Ships Within 24-48 Hours
Florajen's Florajen3 is a unique blend of three probiotic cultures and is highly effective for restoring and maintaining gastrointestinal health and supporting the immune system. Florajen's Florajen3 is also beneficial to vaginal flora.
Florajen Superior ProbioticsFlorajen probiotics are respected as "best in class" due to superior potency, efficacy and affordability.
Safe and NaturalThe micro-organisms in Florajen probiotics are the same "good bacteria" that occur naturally in healthy people. Florajen contains the same strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus used by most yogurt companies in the United States since 1973, yet it is dairy-free.
Highly Potent and EffectiveResearch has shown that to be effective, probiotic supplements must contain billions of live cells. While many off-the-shelf probiotics fall far short of this standard, each Florajen capsule contains over 20 billion live cells.
Refrigerated for Freshness and PotencyContinuous refrigeration maintains Florajen's freshness and high potency from the time it is manufactured to the time it is purchased. Look for Florajen in the refrigerated section of your health food store or ask your pharmacist.
Guaranteed High QualityManufactured in the U.S. in a world-class facility, all Florajen lot numbers are microbiologically tested for quality and safety according to current FDA and USP procedures and guidelines.
All Florajen products have a money-back guarantee if you are not satisfied with them for any reason.
AffordableFlorajen probiotics provide more live cultures at a lower price than competitive products, making them a better value. Our founder believes that everyone should be able to afford the benefits of high quality probiotics. We focus on product quality, not advertising.
Probiotic SafetyProbiotics—especially those comprised of Lactobacillus and/or Bifidobacterium strains—are considered to be very safe for the generally healthy population. However, the following groups of people should consult with their healthcare professional before considering using probiotics.
About FlorajenAmerican Lifeline was founded in 1991 by one of the world's leading food bacteriologists, Dr. Robert Deibel, Chairman of the University of Wisconsin's Department of Bacteriology, and his colleague and respected food bacteriologist, David Sullivan.
The Florajen Promise to You
SafeFlorajen contains the exact same strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus used since 1973 by most of the yogurt companies in the United States, yet it's dairy-free.
AffordableAt less than 50 cents per capsule, Florajen is less than one-half the cost of a cup of yogurt.
It WorksEach refrigerated capsule contains over 20 billion live cultures to help restore balance to your intestinal or vaginal tract.
Refrigerate for maximum freshness and potency. Can be stored at room temperature for up to two weeks while traveling and still maintain effectiveness.
Tamper evident. Do not use if safety seal on bottle is broken.
