Is Absinthe Dangerous?
Absinthe is now available in the United States. As an art major, I am curious about a drink so favored by artists and writers in La Belle Époque, but I am concerned by what I read of wormwood's effects. Is absinthe dangerous?
Answer (Published 3/6/2009)
Originally published 3/6/2009
Absinthe is a high-proof herbal liquor that was illegal in the United States and in much of Europe for decades but is now making a comeback. The drink, which originated in Switzerland, is made from the flowers and leaves of the herb Artemisia absinthium, better known as wormwood. Because of its unusual green color (derived from the chlorophyll of the macerated leaves), absinthe became known as the "Green Fairy" when it was the favored drink of bohemian artists and writers in the late 19th century and early 20th century in France, the period known as La Belle Époque.

In those days, absinthe was reputed to be a dangerous, addictive, psychoactive drug and was blamed for at least one grisly murder. It was said to cause delirium, epileptic attacks, vertigo, hallucinations and eventual insanity. On the plus side, absinthe was regarded as an intoxicating source of creativity for the artists and writers who imbibed regularly. All these effects were falsely attributed to thujone, a potent neurotoxin in wormwood.
We now know that the wormwood in absinthe contains far less thujone than once believed and that amounts are much too small to pose any health threat. Current thinking holds that wormwood isn't at all dangerous, and that any ill-effects of absinthe are due to alcoholism, not to any specific brain toxicity associated with its use.
For these reasons, the use of absinthe has been enjoying a resurgence in Europe and the U.S. At least two brands are now on the market here, and the European Union has been overturning the old bans. Bottom line: absinthe is just as dangerous as any type of alcohol if you drink it in excess (although I can't imagine doing that – it tastes nasty to me).

Balanced Living
Cucumbers Are Cool
My Russian former girlfriend tells a story of the trouble her father went to secure a box of fresh bananas during a St. Petersburg winter after the fall of the Soviet Union. She discovered the hidden box and ate them all. Fresh, out-of-season food is an advantage we take for granted.
But even so, pickling has its charms - in Russia, a toast to your health or the future and a sip of vodka was always followed by a pickle.
Though almost any vegetable can be pickled, here in the good old United States of America, we have the pickle, which is always a pickled cucumber. And it is good. Dr. Weil and I both agree that to eat pickles is human, to make your own divine.
Making your own pickles properly begins with growing your own cukes. Cucumbers, Cucumis sativus, fare well in containers. Containers heat up and dry out faster than the ground. Cucumber roots prefer warm soil and they don't like "wet feet," that is, they don't like soggy soil. They do well in raised beds for the same reason. Make a small mound in your garden soil about four or five inches high to get a similar effect. Choose a spot near a wall or plan to trellis your cucumber vines. Sow four or five evenly spaced seeds in the mound, leaving a couple inches between seeds. Choosing the two strongest, healthiest seedlings after the first few leaves have emerged, snip any other seedlings back with a pair of scissors. Avoid pulling out seedlings in proximity to those you wish to save because you may damage otherwise healthy roots.
Though cucumber roots will rot in saturated soils, because of their large leaf surface area and their preference for full sun, it is important to keep them moist enough to prevent the plants from withering. A rich soil will promote healthy green growth, though I will often foliar feed younger plants with liquid kelp to stimulate leaf production. A single feeding of potassium at blossom will ensure fruit production. I generally blend a small amount of organic vegetable fertilizer from the nursery into my cucumber mounds at seed-sowing time. When the plants have six to eight leaves, the growing tip may be pinched out to encourage a bushier habit and female flowering. Female flowers, as with any sexed plants, mature to produce the fruit. Greenhouse cucumbers, which require special care, are hybrids that produce only female flowers.
Slugs and snails will lumberjack young cucumber seedlings, so if you live in an area prone to them, be proactive to prevent their damage. A copper ring like a crown on your cucumber mound will repel them. A pie dish sunk to ground level and filled with beer will attract and drown them. But hand-picking by flashlight at dusk works best. Peek under pots and low leaves. Though I don't condone eating snails, making soup out of them is preferable to dumping a bucket of them in the street.
Cucumber mosaic virus can attack individual plants. Yellow mottled and distorted leaves are its symptoms. The afflicted plant should be removed immediately and burned. As certain cultivars age, they become susceptible to fungal rot.
Striped cucumber beetles, Acalymma vittata, are perhaps the cucumber grower's worst enemy. They are easily identified by their yellow to orange and black stripes. Adults emerge in spring to eat leaves and pollen. When cucurbits (squash and melon plants) begin to sprout, adult beetles lay their larvae around the base of the plant. Larvae feed on the roots. When cucumbers and other cucurbits flower, the beetles will devour en masse the tiny yellow flowers of the cucumber. They also transmit bacterial wilt and mosaic virus from infected plants. Excluding them with a light insect barrier or using organic controls like pyrethrum or neem oil might work. Hand-picking is also advisable. Though they have decimated the flowers thus preventing fruit development on many cucumbers I have grown, I have always gotten enough cukes to eat some fresh and to pickle the rest.
Pickles can be made from any variety of cucumber. There are specific varieties, most notably the gherkin, bred for pickling. Pick immature fruit at the size of your preference, between two to six inches for pickles. Burpless varieties have been bred to ease digestive difficulties some individuals have with cucumbers.
A couple of compounds present in cucumber prevent water retention. This might be why one of its more absurd uses is to treat puffy, aging eyes. Burns and dermatitis benefit similarly. Cucumbers contain potassium, vitamin C and folic acid. The skin contains silica, potassium, magnesium and molybdenum.
It irks me that "to be as cool as a cucumber" is a good thing and (a phrase from Shakespeare no less) to be "in a pickle" is a bad thing. If you're like me and you're not really fond of the cucumber but find it difficult to imagine life without the pickle, start to turn the semantic tide: as often as possible, proclaim yourself "as proud as a pickle."

I actually love this series!
It's one of my favorite "average" series. It's nothing special, and I can see why they'd call it a Shana rip-off(even though I haven't seen Shana yet), but... I love Kazuma's dubbed voice, Ayano's dubbed voice, their chemistry, and just how fun it is!
Winning this'd make my day!

Pardes (Hindi: परदेश, Urdu: پردیش, 'Foreign Land') is a Bollywood musical drama film directed by Subhash Ghai. It was released on 8 August 1997. The film stars Shahrukh Khan, Amrish Puri, Alok Nath, and newcomers Mahima Chaudhry and Apurva Agnihotri. The film was a commercial, critical and musical hit. Mahima Chaudary won the Best Newcomer Award for her performance. The film was remade in Telugu as Pelli Kanuka (1998). Wikipedia
Kusum Ganga: (after learning of Rajeev's ex-girlfriend) Everything that happened was wrong, everything! And you're the one responsible!
Arjun Saagar: Me?
Kusum Ganga: Yes, you! Aren't you the one who told me Rajeev is like this, Rajeev is like that.
(reveals intimate pictures of Rajeev and Kelly)
Kusum Ganga: THIS is what Rajeev is like!
Arjun Saagar: Now, Ganaga, you'll have to learn to adjust to these small matters...
Kusum Ganga: A smalll matter? This is a small matter? A small matter? THIS is what you call small! Look, I don't want wan't to live is some palace made of gold! I want the love of a human, a human!
Arjun Saagar: Everyone loves you, don't they?
Kusum Ganga: No one loves me! Amd I don't want this kind of love!
Arjun Saagar: (angry) Then what kind of love do you want, huh? What kind of love are you asking for?
Kusum Ganga: Ask yourself! The kind of love you give to people, that's the kind of love I want! You've all mistaken me for some innocent little painting that you've framed in gold, and now you want me to hang on these walls in silence and become a part of this false decor! This isn't the dream Ganga came to this foreign land with, is it Arjun?

And it's not even on TNT's Board! :)But I have to respectfully disagree with you on your assumption that the company's price has skyrocketed due to Putin's breaks to Tatars. The whole Russian stock market has been doing very well recently, due to improving fundamentals. Other Russian oil companies has also enjoyed huge increases. Unfortunatelly, they are traded only as over-the-counter stocks in the US. That's why I'm recommending TNT.Check out this on the booming Russian economy/stock market: http://www.thestreet.com/_tscs/funds/funds/10251643.htmlYou are right that TNT enjoys a very special relationship with both federal and local Tatar governmnet. That's the best insurance against any kind of Yukos-like delelopments!I agree that TNT is somewhat of a speculative buy. So, everyone, please don't use it as your core holding! That's for sure. But TNT is still great and currently undervalued entrance into the Russian oil industry. Besides, it's great for diversification.

Beautyfully made! I love it!
Alice Crowell on Jun 22, 2016
Absolutely love my hat! Terry is amazing at her craft. An excellent communicator, giving me updates (with pictures) as she completed her work. Will definitely buy from again. Thanks again!
Hats That Transform
I describe my work as " Modern Millinery", practicing a traditional art form through a contemporary lens. My designs are rooted in classic millinery shapes that I then set in motion, creating style mash-ups that transform in silhouette, and transform the women who wear them.
Relying on a fabric's natural weight and body, eschewing any extra stiffeners, I use flat-pattern techniques and machine and hand sewing to provide structure, form and function. A ribbon drawstring is the only ornamentation, providing a simple and elegant mechanism to adjust hat size for an ideal fit.
My goal is to assist women in self-expression, by providing accessories that complement their outfits, their moods, and each woman's individual beauty.
Combining my award-winning background in fashion and costume design, I create subtly dramatic hats engineered to be worn many different ways. Born and raised in New Jersey, I spent many years living and working in Philadelphia, New York and Chicago, before moving to Taos, New Mexico in 2014. My hats have been sold through boutiques, art galleries, and retail shows, as well as to private clients in over 40 states and 22 countries. My work has been featured on television, numerous blogs, and in many print publications including Women's Wear Daily, Ebony Magazine, Nylon, Time Out NY, Blos Holland, The Hat Magazine, The Taos News, and most recently, the Taos Journal of International Poetry & Art.

I personally design and handcraft each hat with great care and attention to detail, using designer mill-end surplus fabrics (ones that would otherwise end up in a landfill) in the most luxurious textures and colors. Each hat is fully lined in silk for comfort, and they are adjustable for head size and shape to create a custom fit.
The ribbon shown in each hat acts as a drawstring, which adjusts the size. The ribbon color (and any corresponding contrast stitching) can happily be changed to your preference at your request. Simply note the request in the "message to seller" section of your etsy order.
Each hat comes with illustrated wear and care instructions.
Accepted payment methods
A gift message to your recipient can happily be included at your request for no extra charge. Hats are shipped "gift ready", wrapped in pretty tissue paper inside a lovely hatbox.

Before its release on Blu-ray on October 4, 2011, Disney's The Lion King is coming back to theaters in three dimensions with the release of The Lion King 3D on September 16, 2011. To celebrate the release, kids will get Simba-themed RealD 3D glasses that they can keep after the movie.
The glasses are designed to fit children 8 years of age and younger, and will be available until supplies last, so there's a very good chance that they will not be available by the end of the two-week engagement.
"'The Lion King' is an animated classic that a new generation will be able to experience like never before when it's shown in theatres for the first time in fully immersive RealD 3D," said Joseph Peixoto, President, Worldwide Cinema at RealD. "I can't think of a better way for kids to get in on the fun than with their own pair of Simba-themed RealD 3D glasses that they can take home as a reminder of Disney's epic story about the cub that would be king."
If you're interested in this offer, check out the opening-day Showtimes page for the movie and make your plans today!
If you're not going to make it to the theaters to see the movie, check out the links below for information about the Blu-ray releases coming October 4th:
- The Lion King (Two-Disc Diamond Edition Blu-ray / DVD Combo in Blu-ray Packaging)
- The Lion King (Four-Disc Diamond Edition Blu-ray 3D / Blu-ray / DVD / Digital Copy)
- The Lion King Trilogy (Eight-Disc Combo: Blu-ray 3D / Blu-ray / DVD / Digital Copy)
If you have the gear at home, you can watch the movie in 3D from the comfort of your own chair but there aren't any cool themed glasses in either of the 3D packs. For those of us that would rather see the movie the way it was originally created and presented, the 2D version is available in each of the above packages.

Kelly Osbourne Releases Statement After Her Insensitive Comment About Latinos
Kelly Osbourne has released a statement after the huge backlash she faced on The View this morning (August 4) for her comments about Latinos.
The 30-year-old television personality, who was guest hosting on the show, was slamming Donald Trump for his comments on immigration. In the process, Kelly ended up saying, "If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump?"
"I want to start by saying I ALWAYS take responsibility for my actions. In this particular case I will take responsibility for my poor choice of words but I will not apologize for being a racist as I am NOT. I whole-hearted f*cked up today. I don't want to bullsh*t anyone with lame excuses. Although, I was stopped mid-sentence by Rosie and couldn't finish my point I will not let Rosie take responsibility for my words. I should have known better as I was on The View and it was live. I've learned a very valuable lesson. It is my hope that this situation will open up a conversation about immigration and the Latin community as a whole. By the way I clean my own f*cking toilets," Kelly wrote on her Facebook in a statement.
Kelly Osbourne Under Fire For Comments About Latinos Cleaning Toilets (Video)
Kelly Osbourne is in some hot water over comments she made about Latinos while talking about Donald Trump during a guest hosting stint on The View on Tuesday (August 4).
The 30-year-old entertainer and television host said during the segment, "In what way does he think that people are going to vote for him after he's just called them rapists and murderers?"
Host Rosie Perez added, "There are a lot of Latinos here in this country that do agree that the immigration problem is a problem and it does need to be addressed and it does need to be fixed. But making those comments—those racist comments—does not help."
Then, Kelly said this: "If you kick every Latino out of this country, then who is going to be cleaning your toilet, Donald Trump? In the sense that…you know what I mean? But I'm saying that in L.A., they always…"
At this, the other hosts seemed shocked, with Rosie saying, "Latinos are not only the only people doing that." Kelly responded, "No, I didn't mean it like that! Come on! I would never mean it like that! I'm not part of this argument."
At the end of the show, Rosie ended up apologizing to Kelly for being sensitive. "I want to apologize to this young woman once again for being overly sensitive."

Grant Details
|Grant Number:
|1R03CA090185-01 Interpret this number
|Primary Investigator:
|Anderson, Cheryl
|Baylor College Of Medicine
|Project Title:
|Prevention Through Physical Activity-Parental Influence
|Fiscal Year:
DESCRIPTION: (Applicant's Description) Evidence is building to support physical activity as a modifiable lifestyle factor in cancer prevention, both directly and indirectly through obesity prevention. However, as stated in the NIH/NCI PA-99-163, "only a small proportion of the U.S. population participates in regular physical activity. Robust methods must be developed to examine and explain the determinants of changes in these behaviors." Rates of sedentary behavior are rising in adults and children, as are rates of obesity. Physical inactivity will likely continue to increase over time without the development of successful physical activity interventions. However, successful interventions against sedentary behavior cannot be developed without a better understanding of the determinants of physical activity behaviors. Our research and that of others among adults has shown that how we perceive ourselves athletically and how others perceive us are plausible determinants of whether we are physically active. In this application, in an ethnically diverse sample, we propose to construct and validate a psychometric scale that measures parental beliefs about their 4th and 5th grade children and physical activity as determinants of children's athletic identity and participation in physical activity. Identity formation begins in childhood and is strongly influenced by parents, who can encourage or discourage developing athletic identities. Since people are resistant to change of ingrained identities that are firmly supported by social structure, parental influence on a child's athletic identity could have far reaching implications on how much physical activity they do. Understanding how parents influence children's physical activity and the ethnic/cultural differences which likely exist will provide a new mechanism for change in future interventions to increase regular physical activity and thereby reduce the risk of several activity-related cancers. Long-term physical activity patterns that are sustained over many years likely reflect a core aspect of the self: a relevant self-definition as a physically active person that is initiated in childhood. Our project represents an innovative approach to understanding and increasing regular physical activity in the primary prevention of cancer.

The great Renée Fleming stars as the beguiling femme fatale who captivates all Paris in Lehár's enchanting operetta, seen in a new staging by Broadway virtuoso director and choreographer Susan Stroman (The Producers, Oklahoma!, Contact).

Rising superstar soprano Dinara Alieva – a mainstay at the Bolshoi Opera since 2010 – has been entrancing opera and concert audiences throughout Europe and elsewhere ever since, appearing to consistent acclaim in major roles at many of the world's top houses.
This exciting and consistently delightful live concert video – following her highly successful prior CD release on Delos, 'Pace mio Dio' (DE3462) – showcases not only her voluptuous voice, interpretive power and stylistic versatility, but also (thanks to the visual element) her stunning glamour and charismatic stage presence.
The varied and highly appealing program encompasses operatic favourites from such composers as Charpentier, Massenet and Cilea – as well as lighter fare from the Spanish Zarzuela and the Viennese operetta traditions, plus several beloved popular standards.
Woven through the vocal program is a series of scintillating orchestral bonbons courtesy of conductor Constantine Orbelian (per Opera News, "…the singer's dream collaborator) leading the superb Russian National Orchestra and the vaunted Grand Choir, Masters of Choral Singing.
Also includes a Potpourri of Russian songs: 'Homage to Deanna Durbin', from the film 'The Butler's Sister'.

Symphony Orchestra Kurt Graunke, Munich, Walter Goldschmidt (conductor) & Wolfgang Glück (director)
With its charmingly romantic theme, effective stage action and abundance of spirited and delicate moods, this Parisian-flavoured libretto gave Franz Lehár every opportunity to display his talent. After the sensational success of the "Merry Widow" (1905), Lehár completed this operetta in only three weeks in 1909 and at first referred to it himself as "a slovenly piece of work". Once again, however, impulsiveness and spontaneity proved to be the ingredients of an outright success. "The Count of Luxembourg" is - with regard to its inventiveness, originality and instrumental colouring - on a par with Lehár's other international successes. This film version offers a wealth of artistic entertainment, with a superb cast that includes Eberhard Wächter, Lilian Sukis, Erich Kunz, Jane Tilden, Peter Fröhlich and Helga Papouschek.

Musical Arrangement BERT GRUND
Franz Lehár (1870-1948) found remarkably expressive and brilliantly colorful sounds for the drama and romantic moods of this unique topic. The style was decisively infl uenced by the familiar cadence of Hungarian gypsy music in the composer's native country. This is not only evidenced by the csárdás rhythms or the inclusion of the cymbalom in the arrangement, but above all by the many pronouncedly melancholy hues of the melody and harmony produced by the use of minor keys.
After "The Merry Widow" and "The Count of Luxembourg", "Gypsy Love" is Franz Lehár's third most successful operetta. After its triumphant Vienna premiere in 1910, it was performed all over the world from Broadway to the Far East, for example at the Empire Theater in Darjeeling, at the foot of the Himalayas! This 1974 film features major artists with extensive operatic experience such as Janet Perry, Ion Buzea and – last but not least – Adolf Dallapozza.

Television adaptation by ROLF AND ALEXANDRA BECKER, EUGEN YORK
Franz Lehár's operetta "Paganini" (Vienna, 1925) marked the start of a new period in the composer's work that was strongly influenced by the tenor Richard Tauber. Lehár now began to write works that were highly demanding in vocal terms and stylistically closely modelled on the opera repertoire.
The enormous success achieved by these works prove how right he was in not merely trying to make people laugh, but also to provide them with emotionally moving situations. One of the most successful operettas from this period was undoubtedly "Paganini", which includes the immortal melody "Gern hab' ich die Frau'n geküsst". Now for the first time, the legendary 1973 film version of the operetta offers an opportunity to experience once again stars like Teresa Stratas, Peter Kraus, Dagmar Koller and, last but not least, Johannes Heesters.

"In a rather mixed bag, there are a number of class acts...the highlight performance of the night in respect of bringing a role alive...[is]
Kasarova singing an expressive and beautifully realised Werther!...The audience might have been more thrilled by the tenors at full throttle, but this is the highlight for me - a gold nugget in this collection." MusicWeb International, June 2011
