Over 25 million Americans will get the flu this fall and winter. More than 150,000 of them will be hospitalized before they get better. So what's the smart choice: a flu shot or a combination of natural prevention strategies? Read more
Fight the Flu and Win!
January and February are typically the worst months for flu, when the highest volume of cases gets reported. In recent years, however, a growing number of us (particularly in big cities) have started reporting flu symptoms as early as October.
So it's not too soon to learn what experts are predicting for 2010-11; and to decide how you want to protect yourself. Is a flu shot the smartest choice? Or can you truly rely on natural prevention strategies?
Regular flu? H1N1? What's the difference? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) agrees with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA): "The flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses." The infamous H1N1 virus (commonly called "swine flu") is a fairly new virus strain. The first case in the U.S. wasn't detected until early 2009. Despite initial fears of a global "pandemic," most people who caught the virus ultimately experienced it as a bad (but not terrifying) flu. Public health officials expect it to strike again this season, along with several other viral strains. They are most concerned about H3N2, a particularly virulent flu that is most dangerous to those 65 and older.
Is a flu shot the best answer? Federal agencies as well as community-focused health institutions like the Mayo Clinic are recommending a flu vaccine for everyone over 6 months of age. This year's flu shot is designed to protect against several kinds of flu, including H1N1 and H3N2. Still, vaccines notoriously fall short of guaranteed protection. Of those flu shots developed over the last 20 years, 4 of them failed to protect people from the most common viruses. And of the 16 so-called "adequate" vaccines, effectiveness averaged 70-90% percent among healthy adults. Put another way, the CDC reports a 10-30% failure rate, even in the best case scenarios.
Does getting vaccinated protect those around me? The CDC maintains that when healthy people get vaccinated, there's less virus circulating in the community. As a result, the especially vulnerable (older Americans, babies, pregnant women and those with chronic medical problems) are less likely to become ill. So if you're frequently in contact with high-risk groups, you may want to take their health into consideration. And if you take an antiviral medication within 48 hours of the flu's onset, the drug is thought to protect people around you. It will also provide you symptomatic relief and shorten the time you're sick.
■ Cleanliness: Without a doubt, cleanliness is the most powerful defense against all unwanted bacteria and viral infection. Wash your hands frequently, for example after touching doorknobs and telephones. Wash your bed linen weekly, in hot water, with detergent and bleach. Wash kitchen utensils in hot water because the flu cannot survive above 167º F.
■ Sleep: Sleep deprivation is a sure way to compromise your immune system, making it easier for any virus to enter your body. A number of research studies have confirmed the power of sleep and found that adults who regularly sleep less than 7 hours a night are 3 times more likely to catch the flu. By sleeping a little extra, especially between now and New Year's, you may be able to boost your natural immunity enough to make the crucial difference.
■ Echinacea Tea: Throughout the fall and winter cold/flu season, try regular doses of this powerful and natural preventative (1 cup, at least 3 times per week). Echinacea increases your level of properdin, also known as Factor P, which activates the part of your immune system that specifically defends against viral attacks. In fact, since Echinacea is such a useful immune booster, you might decide to drink it year-round.
■ Lemon Balm Tea: If you find yourself achy and fear that you're coming down with the flu, jumpstart your immune system's effort to break the fever by drinking lemon balm tea. It promotes sweating, which allows your body to effectively expel toxins. In addition, it's great for burning through high body temperature, should you come down with fever due to cold or flu.
Amazing-Health Tip: (1) Flu shots are covered by Medicare for senior citizens and are generally covered by insurance for people in other high-risk groups. Otherwise,they cost $10-$50. (2) It can take up to 14 days for the vaccine to become effective; and it protects you for less than a year. So don't rely on last year's vaccine to prevent this year's flu! (3) If you opt to have a flu shot, check here for scheduled availability near you (http://www.flu.gov/individualfamily/vaccination/locator.html).

Officials at the private Catholic school in suburban Philadelphia say one student became ill and left during an experiment at about 2:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Mendel Science Center. Other students then reported feeling ill, prompting the evacuation and decontamination procedures. The building reopened Wednesday.
Radnor Fire Chief Dan Kincade told The Philadelphia Inquirer (http://bit.ly/Vc3wbJ ) that the student who initially fell ill has asthma and could have had a reaction to a vapor released during the experiment. He said hazmat crews found no vapors in the lab, but the building's ventilation system would have cleared the air by the time they arrived.

Personal insults were hurled at Atlanta City Hall on Monday as City Council members debated the personal expense accounts of two departing members.The heated exchange involved outgoing City Councilmembers Aaron Watson and H. Lamar Willis. Both were defeated in elections held earlier this month.During a meeting on Monday morning, Atlanta City Councilmember Felicia Moore said she'd heard that one of those members had drained the funds from his office account. Each City Council member is allotted $175,000 for staff salaries. They also receive a $30,000 general expense account as well as $13,000 for postage.Atlanta City Councilmember C.T. Martin accused Moore of trying to embarrass Willis and Watson by discussing the matter with FOX 5's Morse Diggs before she even let members know what she was doing. Moore responded, "If your question is whether or not I had any discussion with channel 5, Mr. Diggs, before the meeting, and if it related to this issue, the answer to that question is yes."However, Moore denied that she was attempting to embarrass the outgoing councilmembers.It turned out that Moore's assertions about the expense accounts appeared to be incorrect. Willis and Watson told FOX 5 that they had ample funds left in their accounts.

NRACandy, you need a "real" history lesson, and original intent. Freedom is messy and not simplistic; no law is perfect or can cover all circumstances...there's always a "yeah but what about" somewhere. The Federalist Papers were replete with concerns about government control and suppression and how best to insure the individual could protect itself against a suppressive government. The 2nd Amendment was primary in this. The Amendment was design not to permit pioneers and citizens the right to hunt or for self protection, but for government to fear its citizens, knowing the citizens were as well armed as the government. The term militia is not referring to police or national guard, but would be similar to neighborhood watch.

Catch RedBulls story and Workout of the Week: Mick Fanning on breathing. Something all of us can likely use to our greater benefit.
Oxygen is the key to life. We know that right? But how much do we know about the mechanics of breathing and of our mostly unawakened capabilities?
If you're like most, a five-second wipeout has you close to panic and desperately swallowing air when you do surface. Imagine if you could take a two-wave, one-minute hit on the head without punching the panic button... .
And it's not just in the surf where smart use of breathing can help you. Learn the techniques of Breath Enhancement Training, like three-time world champion Mick Fanning, and your heart-rate is more balanced, you can reduce anxiety, but be able to deal with high levels of stress when it happens, as well as drive more energy from your body.

Denver • The manager of a Denver Chipotle restaurant has become an Internet celebrity thanks to the wide-eyed pose he struck alongside Mitt Romney when the Republican presidential candidate stopped by for lunch.
Twenty-year-old Marty Arps struck the pose during a group photo with Romney and Chipotle employees Tuesday afternoon. Arps is seen making a wide-eyed expression while pointing at Romney.

Arps told The Daily he makes the expression when he's excited.
He said he doesn't know yet who he'll vote for, and says he's "not too hip to elections and stuff."
Romney ordered a pork burrito bowl with guacamole during a break from practice for Wednesday's debate with President Barack Obama in Denver.

Stock your pantry with holiday deals
Holiday food sales mean good deals on certain foodstuffs. Fill your cupboards now before prices go up again.
The food ads are mighty attractive at this time of year even up here in Anchorage, where prices are noticeably higher than in the Lower 48.
A few of the items currently being offered at decent sale prices: bacon, eggs, cheese, soup, canned tomatoes, flour, chicken broth, coffee, yams, canned and plain frozen vegetables, crackers (I'm partial to the cracked pepper and olive oil Triscuits), potatoes, butter, apples and canned beans.
The idea is to get us to buy extra ingredients for holiday meals and those homemade sweets. But why not buy extra ingredients for ourselves?
This may seem like an obvious idea, but not everyone thinks along frugal lines. They buy the way they usually do, i.e., week to week. The trouble is, food prices go up from week to week. By locking in at current prices you're investing in food futures, so to speak.
- Bing: Food prices in 2012
Having extra food on hand also means you always have something to fix for lunch or dinner. This helps you not to rely on takeout.
Worst-case scenario: If your fortunes go south in the new year, you have what MSN Money columnist Liz Weston calls "the emergency fund you can eat." Post continues below.
The sunk-cost menu
Your budget may be stretched during the holidays. (Or maybe year-round.) But anyone with even an extra dollar or two per shopping trip should be looking to stock up.
The canned tomatoes and beans can be turned into a 20-minute chili that will warm you on a cold January evening. With some cheese and a mug of tomato soup, those Triscuits will make a simple but satisfying weekend lunch. That loss-leader flour is the centerpiece for a night-before-payday event known as "breakfast for supper" -- pancakes or waffles.
Best of all: These will be sunk-cost meals. So stock up for January and beyond, when you're receiving a higher-than-usual utility bill due to a cold snap -- or the credit card bills from holiday indulgences.
Position yourself now for a little after-the-fact frugality. Keep your favorite chili recipe handy, too.

It's a lesson we learned from the http://www.breinweb.nl/cialis-costs internet: Small packets on dedicated lines can move extremely fast from one place to another. All SkyTran wants to do is turn data packets into human transport packets, and suddenly they've solved the dilemma of modern transportation. At least, they think they have.
The California company might seem to be a bit off their rocker, but they've crunched the numbers, and it's actually a pretty innovative system that could actually work.
Basically, two-passenger cars would be suspended from beams roughly the size of a traffic light pole. The cars would be levitated by passive magnets, so they would have no moving parts. Energy for moving would be in the track, so the cars themselves would need no power source or engine, thus keeping the weight (even with two passengers) under 1000 lbs. All of only best offers purchase viagra online that frictionless, low-weight technology means very little energy is needed to get these cars moving, and SkyTran estimates that the buy levitra from china cars would get the equivalent of 200 MPG in the city, though, of course, they'd be powered by electricity not gasoline.
The system would have two paralell tracks, one travelling in each direction. Underneath each track would be a suspended station, where cars would merge out of the system and it's cool buy pfizer levitra slow to samples viagra cialis let passengers on and off. Cars would then be brought back up to speed to move onto the upper track for full-speed travel.
I can see a few flaws here that have not been discussed previously. First, the one-way nature of most suburban traffic (toward cities in the morning, away from them in the evening) means that cars would always be needed and would have to travel empty back from the city to pick up more commuters in the morning. I have no idea what resulting wait times and inefficiencies would be, but it's not ideal.
This is, however, inarguably better than cars and mass transit. You get your own vehicle with no waiting at bus stops. But you also don't have to pay attention to driving, you can travel faster, and I would assume it would also be safer. The footprint is much smaller than a roads or rail and because it's suspended, it would be easy to integrate the system with pedestrian, road and rail traffic.
The question is, how much does it cost. Skytran says the system should be about $10 M per mile, which is about 1/4th the cost of light rail and 1/5th the cost of interstate highways. It might not be cheaper to implement that bus systems, but it would certainly be utilized a lot more, and could, with a small per-mile fee, be a heck of a lot more profitable than any other system. And since, of course, you might just be able to sell your car (not to mention your parking space) you could probably spend quite a lot on this system without concern for cost.
It's not the generic levitra online first of these systems we've heard about, there's also SkyTram (yes...that's different from SkyTran) and none of my921.ca these systems have ever gotten the kind of initial interest and http://www.pereverges.cat/canadian-cialis-for-sale capital needed to really make it work. Will it be possible this time?
written by Bob Wallace, August 10, 2009
Might the cost per car be low enough that it would be less expensive to "park" cars for the day/night rather than shuffle them around empty. After all, that's what we do with our current expensive cars.

This is a 'get you into/out of the city' and 'between close cities' mode of transportation.
Second, were it somehow to get built to cover most destinations it would take a long, long time. During the cialis with mastercard buildup we would simply scrap cars as we do now, just not replace all of them.
Right now US scrappage rate is about 5%. We essentially turn over our fleet of buy levitra in india cars in 20 years or so. (Sure, there are some older than 20s, but there are less than 20s that get totaled.)
And a lot of vehicles is recycled. Oil pans and gas tanks are drained, batteries are about 90% recyclable, tires get shredded for other use, metal gets shredded and sorted for reuse. The stuff that goes to the landfill are cardboard, fabric, dirt, ....

Side tracks. Stop and load/unload multiple pods at a time. Busy stations could have multiple "platforms".
much slower
It's designed to be quite fast. The system could offer speedy movement between cities too close to hook by rapid rail.
single file nature of the tracks themselves just doesn't have the carrying capacity
The pods can be run very close together.
Add the lack of space between them and www.revistadeteatro.com their shorter length and you can pack a lot more units per length of track.
Some high volume places, major commute routes, might require multiple parallel tracks.

So the question is, can they work as a bus replacement. Someplace .... heck, it could be in the outer suburbs, we have buses too, you know ... builds the track to replace the main hourly bus. Its massively faster than the viagra generic usa bus, since people only stop for their own stop, so more upscale people use it. There's demand for more routes. "Convenient to Skybus" becomes a real estate selling point. Industrial estates and office parks lobby to have a line running through, malls issue dire threats that they will close down if they don't get a line. Anyone who can bike to the line can get most anywhere someone needs to go. And etcetera ...
... just like the roll-out of electric trolley lines a hundred years ago, or paved highways seventy years ago, the trick is not how it works when everyone does it ... the trick is how it gets built out.
Driving drops down enough so some parking can be swapped for useful space - housing, commercial, industrial, whatever. More

Then how crowded were our cities back then? As I recall you could even drive and park in New York City.
How concerned were we about global climate change? We were more concerned about guys letting their hair grow long.
And how feasible would the '60s version of these things be? No computers to route your individual pod from where you want to start to where you want to go. More like an amusement park ride, get on and wait your turn.
And don't forget, lots of cities have installed 'people movers'. Sacramento has light rail, San Francisco has BART. This is cheaper and easier to install for cities that have a need to fill. And many do.

I agree with the rest of your post.
written by Matt, August 11, 2009
Of this type of public system there are no obvious precedents, and so of course the ideas are experimental, and should not be judged in comparison with existing train lines etc. But on it's own merit.
This could have a particular appeal here in England, and in other european cities where history has bequethed us narrow roads and only tight spaces to work with. And since nobody realy likes subterranean systems, getting above the city is even more appealling... with the added benefit of perhaps freeing up those existing underground train lines for the exclusive use of industry and retail delivery, taking many commercial vehicles off the roads, making such deliveries more secure ( and so possibly reducing insurance premiums), cutting business costs in this area, further reducing emmissions, and making a city a more pleasant place to live and work.
So even if the ideas are not yet fully formed, they should nevertheless be encouraged and supported, and not simply dismissed out of hand.

The pros and buy cheapest cialis cons of this thing have been worked over quite well in this discussion, and while to my eyes there are a lot more pros than there are cons, cost and political will are likely to be the only aspects that actually matter. And regardless of follow link how to buy viagra whether its overhead and operation costs are less than an equivalent public system, and likely dramatically less than the externalities imposed by personal car ownership, it's not likely to get picked up, simply because it's never been done before.
I see no immediately apparent gamestopping technical hurdles, though, which is rare and impressive for crazy concept designs like this.
And Hador, that "230" promo for the Volt is almost definitely not its MPG equivalent.

As far as there being no show-stopping technical hurdles, I don't think that's a true statement. Although technically possible, mag-lev trains are not without their share of problems. Migrating the technology to a smaller scale and replicating it thousands of times does not eliminate those issues, it only multiplies them. What happens in the event of a power loss? How do you keep the guide rails free of debris in cold or dusty climates, considering the low fly-height over the rails? What happens when these pods start to sway in the high winds of Chicago while suspended 30 feet above the ground? I like the concept, but I have to say that mag-lev is a bit of very good site cheap levitra a technical and financial stretch.

As an adjunct transportation mode the math can work.
We're going ahead with rapid rail from SF to LA/San D because when the numbers were worked building rapid rail was found to be less expensive than increasing our freeway and female levitra airport capacity.
Some places where things are really jambed up it's going to be cheaper to install some support poles along the how you get pfizer viagra existing streets than to widen the streets.
(I don't think the proponents of these systems have adequately considered the aesthetic hurdles. I wonder how many owners of striking buildings are going to resist.)

The person who claims we'll never get out to the boonies may be right, but we should be able to serve areas with fare density as low as $5/acre/day, which is a fairly sparse suburb.
note also that our structure (and that of several of our competitors, but not skytran) can support freight palettes too, which opens whole new world of enter site rx generic viagra customers. Frieght and passenger stations are different, but the computer can keep it all straight easily.

With this car model, in order to travel you have to have a car so you either have to have one waiting (with associated cost) or you have to wait for one to arrive. If empty cars are continually circulating looking for a passenger, that is also a significant cost. You are going to need some pretty fancy heuristics to get good service at different times of the day and it is not going to work well all the time - and if people have to wait they are not going to be happy. If it is fast 95% of the time - will that be good enough?

With 'just in time' planning the cheapest online cialis operators should know where needs are going to be and cialis pfizer canada then move units to that location. There might need to be some "parking" system for storage of extra units which will soon be needed. I can see a lot of units that go into town in the morning and wait until the work day is over. Cheaper to build and cheaper to park.
Then there would likely be an ability to reserve a car via cell phone if desired. Might cost a few cents more, but you could be assured that you get on board quickly.
I'd be happy if I got a unit in ten minutes or less. One of the places where I take the bus in SF I can wait an hour for a scheduled bus.

Canyon, Texas
Palo Duro Canyon State Park
[ 8/10 ]
Before I begin, in interest of full disclosure I have to admit I'm a big fan of the Texas state parks. We camped here the week of Memorial Day arriving on the Monday holiday and staying through Friday. The park is subject to flash flooding and the area had nearly four inches of rain the week before. As result most of the park was closed on the Friday before the holiday until the next Wednesday. They are working on replacing at least three of the low water crossings with bridges which should improve access after heavy rains. During flooding only two campgrounds, Sagebrush and Hackberry, are accessible. Of all the campgrounds, only Sagebrush and Mesquite have 50 Amp service. None of the campgrounds have full hook-ups, so if you are camping very long, you may want to bring a waste tank. The rest rooms were dated but clean. One of our pet peeves is that none of the rest rooms in the state parks have hand soap, so bring your own. The park host was very friendly and actually offered us some watermelon one evening. The park has over 30 miles of trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Some of the trails are quite long and rated as "difficult," so plan your hikes carefully. During the summer the temperature in the canyon can reach 120 degrees Fahrenheit. We hiked the "Lighthouse Trail" to the park's iconic "Lighthouse" formation. That trail is the most popular and is 5.75 miles round trip and rated as "moderate." It took us 2 hours and 20 minutes. The information provided by TPWD warns to take plenty of water since most of the heat related injuries and deaths to people and pets occur on this trail. The park does have a few family friendly "easy" rated trails. The park has a very nice wildlife viewing blind, which quickly became a favorite of ours. We visited it several times during our visit. We saw a variety of birds including Northern Cardinal, Purple Finch, Painted Bunting, Yellow Fronted Woodpecker, and wild turkeys. Palo Duro Canyon is advertised as the "Grand Canyon of Texas." Prior to visiting, I just figured that was another Texas exaggeration. After viewing the canyon from the overlook at the Visitor's Center I was definitely impressed. It's not the Grand Canyon, but it is definitely breath taking. (We visited the Grand Canyon in February of this year so I had fresh memories for comparison.) They do have a few pull through spaces, but most are back-in sites. Some of the sites looked a little short, but our space (# 142) was long enough for both our 39' fifth wheel and our full size crew cab pickup. The park also has a stables and amphitheater in the park. During the summer months the musical "Texas" is presented Tuesday through Saturday at the amphitheater. During our visit both our AT&T cell and data services was intermittent. Data service on both our phones and our MiFi device ranged from none, to edge to 4G but it would change by the minute. Camping rates do not include admission to the park. Admission is $5.00 per person per day. If you are planning of camping at more than one state park, I highly recommend purchase of a Texas Parks Pass. Passes are $70.00 per year and include unlimited admission to the parks and several coupons for 50% off a single night's rate. The nightly rate specified reflects a Texas Parks Pass and a coupon for 50% off one night's stay.
Wills Point, Texas
Lake Tawakoni State Park
[ 8/10 ]
Lake Tawakoni State Park: This was our first time camping at this state park. In the interest of full disclosure, I'm a big fan of the Texas State Parks. I really prefer them to most commercial campgrounds. When we arrived there were only two full hookup campsites left. We picked a pull through site (#78), which they said was about 60 feet long. I think it was actually a little longer because we had no problem with our 39' fifth wheel, our F-350 crew cab long bed and my daughter's Corolla all parked in the site. They have a total of 16 full hook-up sites. (According to the web site.) It looked like there were quite a few large sites for large rigs. The Texas State Parks has had some budget "challenges" the past few years and some of the parks have become run down. That did not seem to be the case here. The concrete sites seemed to be somewhat new, and the asphalt roads were in good shape. There was plenty of room for our four slide outs also. We were a little close to one tree. (We could have moved up a little but that would have put us further from the sewer.) There was quite a bit of shade. They had some "double wide" campsites where there were two back in sites next to each other with a doublewide drive between. Those sites would probably be nice if you were camping with another family. The restrooms were clean. The ones in the area we were in were the more traditional variety with a Men and Women's side. In one of the other areas there was a unisex building that had individual rooms with toilet and shower. They have a beach, but the lake level was very low, so the sand stopped before the water started. They did not have a playground. They did have a store that sells bait and rents boats, but it was closed both days we were there. The park has several trails. Since it had rained the day we arrived, they were muddy, and we only explored the Spring Point Trail. If you're not familiar with the Texas State Parks, the camping fee does not include admission to the park. If you do not have a Park Pass, the fee is $5.00 per day per person 13 years and older. Also if you have any more than two vehicles you must pay an additional $4.00 per day per extra vehicle. Since a trailer counts as a vehicle, my daughter had to pay for her car. (But not for herself since she also has a Park Pass.) If you are going to stay at a Texas State Park more than a couple times in a year, the Park Pass pays for itself. The rates quoted for this review reflect the average nightly rate with a Park Pass and a coupon for ½ price for one night. If you like to get out once in a while, we found a very nice Italian restaurant in Wills Point. It was Verona's Italian Café. It's right on 4th Street (FM 46.) The food was great and the prices very reasonable.
Branson, Missouri
Tall Pines Campground
[ 8/10 ]
We stayed here for five night during the week of July 4th. As mentioned in other reviews the staff was very friendly (although they did give a a hard time about being too dependent on my GPS. There is an abundance of shade which is one reason we chose this CG. The CG was also very quite. We had a back in site. They do have some pull-through sites. There was plenty of room four our 39 ft. RV with four slide outs. It is very close to Silver Dollar City. You can occasionally hear the train horn, faintly. On the negative side the roads are in need of repair. They are asphalt with a lot of pot holes. Also, the playground could use some updating. There are only three swings and three teeter totters. (Although my 6 year old grand son was perfectly happy with it.) We would definitely stay here again.
Denison, Texas
Eisenhower State Park
[ 8/10 ]
We've stayed several times over the past six or so years. We like it because it has full hook-ups (Bois D'Arc Ridge area) and it's close enough to the Dallas / Fort Worth area for a weekend trip. There are several hiking trails in the park which we've explored on previous trips. There is a small swim beach but as others have mentioned it's quite a hike down the steps to get there. I don't think we've ever been there that we didn't see any deer. There is a little meadow just as you turn into the Bois D'Arch Ridge area and they are frequently there early in the morning or in the early evening. We've also seen them around the campsites. On one previous trip there was a couple deer within ten feet of our travel trailer. During this trip I saw a doe and fawn about two campsites away. They have two fishing docks which we've enjoyed using. During the summer months the campgrounds can be fairly crowded, although I don't think they've ever been sold out when I've tried to make reservations. This past weekend the campgrounds were fairly empty. As with most of the Texas State parks were built by the CCC, so they are old and recent budget challenges have left them in disrepair. This year the budget situation has improved and I noticed that they had re-surfaced the roads in the campground. There is a yacht club in the park where you can buy bait and which has some boat rentals. The last time I checked the rental prices, they seemed pretty high and I think all they had available was pontoon boats. The nightly camping rate does not include admission to the park. If you don't have a Texas State Park Pass, you have to pay $5.00 per day for each person 13 or over. By the way, when you buy a Texas State Park Pass, you also get a couple of electronic coupons for one-half off a day (night) of camping. The park has always been clean and the restrooms, while dated, are clean. Many of the sites in the Bois D'Arc Ridge area are not level. Several years ago we had a spot that was so unlevel, we overextended a jack on our old travel trailer. Many of the sites (particularly on the outside of the loops) are long enough for larger rigs. We were in site 82 which was over 100 foot long. They said it was "level" and it was level from front to back, but was not level from side to side. Our automatic leveling system had our right tires off the ground. They are supposed to have Wi-Fi available, but we didn't use it, so I can't report on it. We did have one complaint on this trip. There was a burn ban in effect, but it was not posted anywhere. I knew there were burn bans in some of nearby counties, but in the past fires were allowed in the fire rings. After we bought firewood from the park headquarters (again no mention of the burn ban) we were told by a Ranger that fires were only allowed for cooking and had to be extinguished after cooking.

Watkinsville Mayor Charles Ivie said Industrial Finishing Specialists of Sanford, N.C., will open a satellite location in the town. The metal-cleaning business plans on making the new Caterpillar plant a primary customer.
The company uses a high-heat process to clean organic materials from metal while air-blown sand strips off paint.
Ivie told The Athens Banner-Herald that he hopes Industrial Finishing Specialists will be the first of other business attracted to the area by Caterpillar's expansion.

How will I be monitored while on testosterone replacement therapy?
Your doctor will measure your testosterone levels at the 3- and 6-month marks after treatment begins. After that you'll be tested once a year. If your levels are OK you'll stay on your current dose.
If your testosterone levels are too low, your dose may be adjusted. At the same time, your doctor will check your red blood cell levels.
Within 1 to 2 years of TRT, your doctor will measure your bone density if you had osteoporosis when treatment began. Your doctor will evaluate your prostate cancer risk at the start of treatment and may do more tests at the 3- and 6-month marks, and then annually.
How long do I have to take testosterone replacement therapy?
Indefinitely. TRT does not cure low T, so your symptoms may return if you stop taking it.

Chemicals used to reduce the risk of fires in items such as strollers, carpeting and electronics may be toxic to children. A study from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine shows prenatal exposure to a flame retardant know as PBDE is associated with lower intelligence and hyperactivity in early childhood. Most PBDE's are not used in the U.S. anymore but may be found in products purchased years ago. A new study shows bicycle helmets saves more lives in states that legally require them. Head injuries cause most of the 900 bicycle deaths each year. Death rates are significantly lower in the 21 states with mandatory helmet laws. A leading group of pediatricians is pushing for every state to require helmets.And a diet rich in proteins and low in carbohydrates may improve fertility rates in women undergoing in vitro fertilization. Researchers in Delaware found patients who ate 25% more protein and 40% less carbs per day, were four times more likely to get pregnant. Doctors believe protein helps produce better quality embryos and eggs.

Pesticide Registration Improvement Extension Act (PRIA 3)
Fee Determination Decision Tree
Decision Tree Resources:
Below is the fee for your selected Fee Category for Fiscal Years 2014/2015
|Action Code
| Decision Time
|New product; repack of identical registered end-use product as a manufacturing-use product; same registered uses only (2) (3)
|$ 2,409
Do you plan to request either of the following types of waivers?
|50% waiver
|You pay ---->>>>>
|$ 1,205
|75% waiver
|You pay ---->>>>>
|$ 603
To pay the fee shown above, go to http://www.pay.gov and follow the instructions.
How to submit your application directly to EPA.
|Action Code Interpretation
An application for registration of a manufacturing use pesticide product that is identical in its formulation and uses to end use products that are currently registered. To fit this category all applications require the following:
If the use pattern for the proposed product differs from the currently registered product, then additional data are required and the application does not fall within this category (see applicable new use categories).
Applications for new end use products that are submitted using an unregistered source of an existing active ingredient will be recoded to either category R333 or R334. All active ingredients derived from a manufacturing source which does not hold an active EPA registration number are considered unregistered. Even if the Agency may have reviewed the product chemistry data previously for that unregistered source of the active ingredient for another end use product, the active ingredient is considered unregistered.
The Agency will provide the applicant with a pre-decisional determination 2 weeks prior to the PRIA decision review time due date which specifies any label changes that have to be made in order to grant the requested new product registration. If the label issues cannot be resolved prior to the PRIA decision review time due date and if a PRIA due date time extension has not been agreed upon, then the Agency will issue to the applicant its regulatory decision with the specific label changes and supporting documentation on or just before the PRIA decision review time due date. At that time the applicant must either (a) agree to all of the label changes and submit a revised label that incorporates all of these label changes; or (b) does not agree with one or more of the label changes and request up to 30 days to reach agreement with the Agency and submit a revised label that incorporates all of the agreed upon label changes, which the Agency has 2 business days to review; or (c) withdraw the application without prejudice.

Full review: Hide from the world at Antiquity (1/3/2013)
It's a classy kind of joint, this Antiquity; tablecloths, waiters with bow ties and fancified French food (including seafood) that will push you toward ecstasy even as it drains your pocketbook. But it's unmistakably Albuquerque too. For one thing it's in an ancient Old Town hacienda, the kind with an uneven floor, two foot thick walls at every doorway and rooms that ramble back farther than you would ever guess from the outside. For another, the blue-jeaned may mix freely with the formally attired in that wonderful New Mexican way that so annoys the Easterners among us. (Alibi Staff, October 4, 2012)
El Sarape
Mon 10am-4pm Tue-Sat 10am-9pm Sun Closed (hours can change without notice)
Mariscos and northern Mexican cuisine with a unique flair. Various ceviche-like dishes feature raw shrimp of unusually firm deliciousness. The epic Charola De Mariscos platter (fried, steamed and raw) must be seen to be believed. Don't fill up on the chips. (Alibi Staff, October 28, 2013)

A marisqueria specializing in Sinaloense-style seafood, El Zarandeado takes a craftsman's approach to your meals. There's the molcajete sinaloense , in which a basalt mortar is filled with mariscos and a pureed green chile sauce, then baked; the cocomarisco , a young coconut emptied of its water and packed with a mix of marinated seafood and young coconut flesh; and above all, el zarandeado itself, a grey snapper "cult object" that needs to be ordered an hour ahead of time.

Full review: A fish-oiled machine (1/13/2011)
I Love Sushi maintains that rare combination of quality and value, with sushi that's very fresh, amply portioned and reasonably priced. If raw isn't your deal, anything involving tempura (like the New Mexico roll with crazy-hot fried green chile strips) is a real treat. Or sit at one of the teppan tables and watch the pros sizzle up your choice of ingredients a few inches away from your plate. What we said about tempura also applies to dessert, so be sure to end your nutrient-dense dinner with a softball-sized scoop of ice cream that's been batter-dipped and fried. Mmm ... fried.

Full review: All aboard for drunken fiesta fish (4/6/2006)
The seafaring mateys at Los Equipales make a very fine bowl of siete mares soup. And the fish tacos and ceviche will make you forget you live inland. While you're at it, the glass jars of housemade horchata are so huge, you could practically swim in them. If you prefer to stay dry, try the flan instead. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Full review: Mariscos Altamar review (3/1/2007)
This Westside gem awards patrons with steamy, heaping plates of Mexican seafood in a clean, cozy dining area. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, it's usually pretty hopping, though there's always a seat and prompt service. Try the shrimp or crab quesadilla, with just the right balance of cheese and seafood. The cocktails have delicious shrimp (even octopus) served in their own juices with hunks of avocado, spices and onion. When the menu warns you something's going to be hot, it really is. You can always cool off with an order of homemade flan. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Nantucket Shoals is just down the road from Whole Foods but often stocks items that the big store's seafood department does not. Call or stop in for fresh fish, soft shell crabs, roe, compound butters and more. Ask about the housemade fish stock. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Full review: Rain and rainbows (4/24/2008)
Well, aloha! Artificial palm trees and beach murals wrap around elevated booths that look over tables with wicker chairs—there's even a tiki bar and walls paneled in bamboo. Fittingly, Pacific Paradise serves up diverse cuisine from all around the Ring of Fire, Asia and Hawaii. And the tropical ice creams are fantastic. Mild and almost savory, the avocado ice cream is a calming end to a large meal, while the plum wine ice cream is light and slightly tart with chewy pieces of fruit. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Full review: Lips Ahoy! (10/5/2006)
Rough-hewn wood planks lead you into this nautically themed steak and seafood restaurant, which doesn't start seating for dinner until 5pm. Luckily, happy hour begins at 4pm. Have a "Lady Godiva" hot cocktail and a baker's dozen of "topless" oysters in the bar while you wait. Then dive into creamy clam chowder, 10-ounce, butter-sweet Australian lobster tail and Ranchero center-cut top sirloin. There's plenty of key lime pie in the icebox and Phil Collins on the speakers.

Cajun-style shrimp with an emphasis on spicy, although Jamaican and Indian sauces have been added to the offerings. The menu also includes sandwiches, salads and Cajun specialties like pan-fried gator, jambalaya and gumbo. (Alibi Staff, October 9, 2013)

Even if you don't get out much to the Southeast side of town (where the highest concentration of Asian restaurants are in Albuquerque), you can still get some of the best sushi around at Samurai Grill's original location in the Northeast Heights. The sushi tastes almost impossibly fresh, and the chefs are pros at presentation. Make sure you try one of the delicious specialty rolls. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)
Shogun Japanese Restaurant
Lunch: Mon-Fri: 11:30am-2pm Sat: 12:00pm-2:30pm Dinner: Mon-Thurs: 5:00-9:30pm Fri-Sat: 5:00-10:30pm Closed Sunday (hours can change without notice)
Shogun serves sashimi, nigiri and sushi rolls in a fashionable Nob Hill setting. Park yourself by the sushi bar to watch the chefs skillfully prepare Japanese specialties as outgoing orders float past you on little wooden boats. The spider roll (with fried soft shell crab) is highly addictive, so be sure to order enough for everyone in your party. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Full review: Dine well and speakeasy (1/24/2008)
Vernon's is a swanky underground spot for good eats and high times, delivered speakeasy-style. The dining room is walled with lustrous, ebony adobe, and the tables are clothed in crisp, black and white linens. By the glass or bottle, there's plenty of quality hooch. The menu is classic steakhouse stuff, with beef tournedos in a silky demi-glace, fresh fish and a damn fine veal Oscar. Voted Best Steakhouse for 2013. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Gyros, souvlaki, taramosalata , roast chicken and potatoes, leg of lamb, lentil soup—the menu at Zorba's rings familiar, and no wonder: The family behind Zorba's is the same that opened the Olympia Café near UNM more than 35 years ago. But here, in the Far Northeast Heights, you'll notice a long, expanded list of dishes, including more seafood and desserts, plus a lot of elbow room and a generous patio.

Some customers looking to lose weight end up losing only money

BBB warns consumers to be cautious when embarking on a new weight loss routine
AUSTIN, Texas -- Gumdrops, lollypops and candy canes shot their final volley in the 2011 battle of the bulge this holiday season, and now the weight loss gimmicks, fads and remedies are crawling out of their trenches and preparing their assault. Better Business Bureau cautions consumers to research weight loss products and companies carefully and understand contracts completely -- including terms of cancellation -- before giving any personal information or making any purchases.
In 2011, BBB received more than 920 complaints nationwide against weight control services, more than 600 complaints against gyms and more than 3,150 complaints against health and diet food stores. Consumers have complained about deceptive advertising, ineffective products and confusing or misleading contracts.
In addition, the Federal Trade Commission and the Texas Attorney General have taken action against companies making unsubstantiated medical claims and using deceptive advertising tactics.
"It didn't do that much for me, to be honest with you," San Antonio resident Patrice Owens said about a product she purchased online. "I just wanted my money back and I didn't want to deal with them anymore."
Owens was looking to find an appetite suppressor to help her lose weight when she came across a free trial offer. That "free" trial came with an agreement that allowed the company to charge her $90 per month to send additional product. She said she later found that disclosure on the website, but it was not prominent and took some digging. When she called the company to cancel, she was refused a full refund.
"They agreed to give me back $30 of my $90," she said. "I looked on the website for an address to write them a letter. (There was) no address or anything on their website, so I had to go through the Better Business Bureau to find out where they were."
BBB received hundreds of complaints last year about "free trial" offers coming with undisclosed or difficult to understand caveats. Most consumers say the company signed them up for a monthly service without clear notification, or made it difficult to cancel and obtain a refund when the consumer was unhappy with the product.
In addition to enrolling her in a monthly program without her consent, Austin resident Susan Kwasniak said one company sent her additional products she had not requested and failed to include any instructions on how to use its appetite suppressor.
"When I looked it up on websites, I found a lot of people selling this and they have guides online," she said. "It's actually a 500-a-day calorie diet. They never told me that on the phone, and I got that on a competitor's website, not from them."
The product -- a homeopathic version of the prescription hormone chorionic gonadatropin, also called hCG -- is supposed to promote weight loss by suppressing appetite. However, it was never approved by the Food and Drug Administration for that purpose.
According to a press release issued by the Texas Attorney General in October 2011, "physicians and weight-loss clinics may not advertise hCG for weight loss in part because the FDA has stated there is no substantial evidence indicating that hCG leads to weight loss, beyond that which stems from severe dieting."
In October 2011, the AG reached a settlement with several weight loss clinics throughout the state, which all agreed to stop advertising hCG for weight loss.
The hormone is the most recent in a long line of natural, homeopathic or herbal drugs that have been discredited after making weight loss claims. The FDA released a warning in October about some over-the-counter diet pills containing undisclosed, potentially harmful ingredients.
"Hidden ingredients are increasingly becoming a problem in products promoted for weight loss," the release said.
BBB reminds consumers that the FDA does not test herbal or homeopathic remedies for safety and efficacy the way it does with prescription and other medications. Consumers should be skeptical of any claims made by purveyors of homeopathic and herbal weight loss supplements and research any product carefully before trying it.
Consumers should also be extremely cautious when purchasing any drugs or supplements online. Medications purchased from outside the United States may not be safe and companies that do not disclose location or contact information may be scams.
Kwasniak said she and her fianc� could not stick to the highly restrictive diet recommended to accompany the hCG drops she had purchased and Owens said she was so frustrated with the company that she never gave the drops she purchased much of a chance to begin with. Thankfully, neither said she had adverse reactions or side effects while using the product.
However, both said they are now on less restrictive programs that promote overall healthy lifestyle changes and have given up on quick fixes.
"You're not even getting enough nutrition in a 500-calorie-a-day diet," Kwasniak said. "I think those (more comprehensive programs), although not necessarily quick, provide you with the support that you really need to lose weight, because you have someone who walks you through it."
For consumers looking to shed pound this year, BBB offers the following advice:
� Consult your physician. Before starting any weight loss regimen, visit your family doctor to discuss your overall health and safe and effective weight loss programs.
� Read contracts carefully. When signing up for any kind of recurring membership, such as at a gym or weight control program, be sure to understand all the terms and conditions before signing. Make sure you know how to cancel and whether or not your membership is automatically renewed at the end of the contract.
� Be wary of free trials. Know when the free trial begins and ends and whether or not you have to call to cancel in order to avoid future charges. Be clear on how much you will be charged if you do not cancel and whether or not you have to return any unused product.
� Avoid unproven products. Fad diets and new products come around every year that promise amazing results. Many such claims are not supported by evidence and some products have dangerous side effects.
� If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Be wary of claims that a product can shed pounds without dieting or exercise or programs that promise unusually good results.
