Parker 21 Fountain Pen and a new giveaway tease
I was due to write about a comfort pen. Like mashed potatoes and gravy, this one makes me happy. Some days I actually need it. When my latest fad pen skips, I grab this one and let the ink flow.
Here's all the working bits. 3-4 squeezes and this one fills and writes perfectly. There's a little rust (or something) on the filler bar and I will get it off one day but for now it stays. It came that way and I gave it the nickname "Rusty" (you name all your pens right?)
The Parker 21's were made between 1948 and 1965. (I love my hooded nibs) I heard rumors of some 21 demonstrators (clear versions) out there. That might be a "have to have" pen for me if I ever see one.
In the spirit of giving, I am giving away the unopened pack from yesterdays post- but to keep it fair, I will wait till next week to post the silly rules. Just an FYI for now.
Twitter has been hot and heavy on the pen talk, good stuff over there, plenty of solid pen people if you do that sort of thing. Feel free to follow.

The "definitive" word on Nirvana has been written ad nauseam ever since Kurt Cobain ended his own life in harrowing style. We've been inundated with countless books (even Cobain's personal diaries have been pillaged); been sold every out-of-tune song that Nirvana ever recorded as a demo; force-fed every non-essential fact surrounding this important band and every crackpot conspiracy relating to Cobain's death to demystifying effect. But Cobain's personal struggles and reluctant stardom as well as Nirvana's impact on a generation and pop-culture in general aside, it all comes back to the music—which is ultimately what we are left with.
Detailed discussions—and heated arguments—have also taken place over the years as to the bands that inspired Cobain and eventually led to Nirvana's commercial and critical success. We've heard about the Beatles until we were blue in the face; an obvious comparison, especially when you listen to songs like "About a Girl", "Dumb" and "Pennyroyal Tea". But delve past the rest of the clear sonic signifiers (Sonic Youth, Kiss, the Pixies, Led Zeppelin, the Vaselines, David Bowie, Devo, Meat Puppets, etc.) and heavier, more menacing influences (Black Sabbath, Killing Joke, Celtic Frost, Black Flag, The Melvins, Flipper, Mudhoney, Earth, etc.) linger around Nirvana's core.
For this piece, PopMatters finally champions the sonically heavier side of Nirvana's music. And while it would be easy (worthless) to just slap down 10 picks from Nirvana's sludgy debut Bleach (an album that could accurately be described as a tribute to metal's mongrel sons the Melvins), we have instead compiled 10 tracks from Nirvana's small yet monumentally impactful discography to form the heaviest Nirvana mixtape. If there are songs missing from No Recess that you think deserved to make the cut ("Radio Friendly Unit Shifter", "Big Cheese", "You Know You're Right", "Paper Cuts", "Dive", etc.), we suggest that you make your own version and share the tracklist below. At the end of the article, we have provided handy playlists from Spotify and Rdio for your listening pleasure.
No Recess - Side A:
Bleach, 1989
Opening No Recess with one of the most violent song of Nirvana's back catalogue, "Negative Creep", seemed like the logical idea. From the chugging riffs that rampage ahead at whiplash pace to Cobain's self-deprecating yet threatening lyrics delivered with desperation, "Negative Creep" is metal to the bone. Originally found on Nirvana's 1989 debut Bleach, "Negative Creep's" brutish tempos stand out like a middle finger amongst the rest of the syrupy sludge. While the disturbing line, "Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more," repeated by Cobain like a murderous mantra, remains etched in your mind long after the song burns out and fades away.
In Utero, 1993
In the same sequencing position for No Recess as it is on Nirvana's cantankerous swansong In Utero, "Scentless Apprentice" is an indictment of Nirvana at their ground-shaking best. Inspired by the Patrick Süskind novel Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, Cobain weaves the twisted tale (A perfumer's apprentice born without body odour who kills virgin women to take their scent to create the "ultimate perfume") around his percussive riffs that bolster the Bonham-esque thump of Dave Grohl's beats and Krist Novoselic's thunderous low-end. "Scentless Apprentice" is all about sheer rhythmic force and lyrical unease, and its inclusion here is essential.
Incesticide, 1992
The rawest recorded version of "Aneurysm" taken from the B-sides compilation Incesticide finds a home at the midpoint of Side A. Often interpreted as an ode to heroin masquerading as an obsessive love song, Cobain's sexually charged lyrics and stark vocals add ambiguity to the quiet/loud dynamics of the music. With a rousing intro and enough restraint during the verses to set up the chorus highlighted by Cobain's pained plea of "Beat me outta me / Beat me outta me," and later, "She keeps it pumpin' straight to my heart," Aneurysm is a startling glimpse at addiction's lethal grip.
In Utero, 1993
How do you follow up a worldwide smash hit? Well, if you are Nirvana, you backlash by forcing a difficult and often scathing invective upon your fans. In Utero's skewed art-punk, "Tourette's", baffled those expecting a huge sing-along like Nevermind's "Drain You". Instead Nirvana created a challenging, noisy outpour of aggression that grinds to a halt before you can gauge what just occurred. Vocally, Cobain turns feral for "Tourette's" and his screeching voice is key to the bedlam of this track, especially when this power trio rage on to the end with a frenetic energy often aped but rarely attained.
Bleach, 1989
Following the spastic "Tourette's", Side A finishes with the sludge trudge of "Floyd the Barber". Owing an incalculable debt to the Melvins—who besides the Beatles were the biggest influence on Cobain's creative development—"Floyd the Barber", which features the Melvins' own Dale Crover on drums, is another intense inclusion off Bleach. At face value the song appears to be about being sexually violated and butchered in a barber's chair, but, as is the case with most Nirvana songs, there is probably a more cerebral meaning attached. Either way, "Floyd the Barber's" gruesome lyrics are matched blow for blow by Novoselic's bowel-crushing bass-lines and Crover's cast-iron beats.

|Past members
Gleaming Spires was an American new wave pop group in the 1980s.
Performing as Bates Motel, they were enlisted by brothers Ron and Russell Mael to be a part of the 1981–85 incarnation of their band, Sparks. After completing demos with neophyte producer Stephen Hague, principal members Leslie Bohem and David Kendrick (later of Devo) recruited fellow Sparks members Jim Goodwin and Bob Haag to form Gleaming Spires with the blessing of the Mael brothers.
Following promotional materials by graphic artist Kevin J. Walker (who designed punk band covers for T.S.O.L. and Channel 3, among others), they were signed to Posh Boy Records on the strength of what had been intended by the group as a non-LP B-side, "Are You Ready for the Sex Girls".
"Sex Girls" became a hit on Los Angeles' KROQ-FM radio station. The recording was later featured in the films The Last American Virgin and Revenge of the Nerds. It was included on the Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's, Volume 3 compilation album. The Gleaming Spires song "All Night Party" was also featured in Revenge of the Nerds.[1]
The album cover art for Gleaming Spires' "Walk on Well Lighted Streets" was designed by artist Mark Kostabi, who later went on to design album covers for Guns N' Roses (Use Your Illusion) and The Ramones (Adios Amigos).

Right now we have to iterate over all Contacts to perform incremental search.
The idea is to add a searchable field once we put a contact into the DB that allows to find the contact even with substrings.
For example "Tom" should be a findable with "t, to, tom, T, To, Tom"
Created attachment 603480 [details]
I added a search property to the contact in the DB that saves the text incrementally.
For example:
Something like: {givenName: "Tom", familyName: "Test"});
results in a DB object that looks like
properties: "givenName":["Tom"],"familyName":["Test"]
search: "givenName":["t","to","tom"],"familyName":["t","te","tes","test"]
I don't think it makes much sense to add a case sensitive incremental search.
Created attachment 603481 [details] [diff] [review]
Created attachment 603489 [details] [diff] [review]
You don't need to add multiple entries if you want to do just "prefix searching".
If someone searches for 't', just create a keyrange like
x = 't';
range = IDBKeyRange.bound(x, x + "\uFFFF");
That range will return all strings starting with 't'. Likewise if you set x to 'to' it'll find all strings starting with 'to'.
You will need to store a case-folded string though if you want case insensitive search. And do something like:
x = 'tO';
x = x.toLowerCase();
range = IDBKeyRange.bound(x, x + "\uFFFF");

I wanted to report bug that TB can't seach based on second word in name, lastname or email fileds.
For example
Name: John Mary
Lastname: Smith
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
If you search by "mary" TB will find nothing since that word is second in name field and not first in email field.
Did solving this bug fixed this also?
I'm using TB 10 ESR, not TB 14 so I cannot test it right now.
This bug has nothing to do with Thunderbird. Please file a bug in the Thunderbird product or visit https://support.mozillamessaging.com/
Sorry, was doing search trought "file new bug" for Thunderbird and this came up.

The Avon Tyres British GT Championship claimed another motor-sporting first today (Sun) at Brands Hatch when twin brothers David and Godfrey Jones took championship victory in the final round; it's not only the first British GT championship win shared by siblings but is believed also to be a UK first for twins.
The Jones brothers, 56 and from Newtown Linford in Leicestershire, clinched the crown by a single point thanks to their victory yesterday in round 13 and their third-place finish today at the wheel of their Team Preci-Spark Ascari KZ1R, which is prepared by Midlands-based Team Pyro. They scored three race wins during the season and a further six podium finishes.
Said Godfrey Jones: "I have been dreaming about this. I have dreamt good things and bad, it's nice to have it over and that it's gone the way we wanted it. We knew what we had to do… the one way that we could lose it was to not finish the race. The team has done a great job with the car and it's worked out very well."
"I think Godfrey drove superbly in the first half of the race," said David. "He kept it on the pace and I just had to bring it home third, which I did."
Today's outright race winner was the Invitation Class Barwell Motorsport Ginetta of Phil Quaife and Leo Machitski, which stole victory from the Allan Simonsen/Hector Lester Rosso Verde Ferrari two laps from the end after it had led all the way from the pole, Simonsen lowering his own circuit lap record as he went. Lester finished just eight-tenths behind to take maximum points and secure championship second.
The GT4 class was won for the 11th time this season by the Team WFR Ginetta of Nigel Moore and (new class champion) Jody Firth.

Rittenhouse Fine Craft Fall

***Applications for this year are now closed***
The Jury begins the review of artist applications on February 9.

Please contact show manager Kara Raymond at 717-669-6278 or email@example.com for any questions regarding our fine craft shows.
Crafting Timeless Design
Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen returns to Rittenhouse Square
October 13, 14 & 15, 2017
The Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen brings American-made fine craft to the autumn environs of Rittenhouse Square next month. During the 3-day event, patrons can peruse and buy original, hand-crafted works of contemporary furniture, functional and decorative pottery, designer clothing, fine jewelry, blown glass, and more.
Master Artisans like Heather Stief bring their finest handmade craft to the show, ensuring that craft lovers and collectors discover products of excellent workmanship, creative vision, and unique style. The 2013 October Rittenhouse show was Stief's first "big" fine craft show, when she joined the Guild as a part of the EMERGE program. The sophisticated patrons in Rittenhouse Square received her work with enthusiasm and Stief had her first glimpse that craft could be her full-time career.
As a fine art major in college, Stief concentrated in Graphic Design and minored in Craft. After graduating, she worked as a Graphic Designer for seven years. With this influence in mind, Stief moved towards her second career, and became a full-time metalsmith; the graphic quality infused into her work is evident. While her jewelry is often inspired by shapes found in nature, her process involves the distillation of these shapes down to abstract but recognizable organic designs; a similar process required when designing logos. "Combining metalsmithing with a designer's eye has been a refreshing challenge for me," says Stief, and the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen is honored to represent her work and all of the exceptional craft from our exhibitors, in this fall Fine Craft Show!
"We encourage you to come and shop for quality handmade items at this prestigious show. The craftsmen of the Guild represent traditional and contemporary crafts at their finest," says Interim Executive Director Brian Cunfer. "We ask that you recognize and support these artisans who preserve the craft." With this event, the Guild continues to unite an astute audience with exceptional handmade objects.
This event is made possible through a partnership with the Friends of Rittenhouse Square and in conjunction with the Philadelphia Parks & Recreation.
See you there!
Fair hours are 11 am to 6 pm Friday & Saturday, and 11 am to 5 pm Sunday. Admission is free. Street and garage parking is plentiful.

Self-Portrait as Bettie Page
Heidi Czerwiec is Associate Professor of English at the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks, where she lives with her husband and son. For more information, her website is www.heidiczerwiec.com.
Order your copy now for only $10.95 plus S&H ($2.95 for a single copy)
Alternatively please mail a check made out to Anna Evans for $10.95 + $2.95 per copy to P.O. Box 115, Hainesport, NJ 08036.
If "nuns fret not at their convent's narrow rooms / and hermits are contented with their cells," imagine the fun to be had in lacing pin-up icon Bettie Page into this "scanty plot" of poetic corset, the sonnet. Rarely are form and content so well suited as in Heidi Czerwiec's wittily kinky peek-a-boo of a collection, almost-but-not-quite bursting at its seams with author/persona conflation/confusion, wide-ranging allusions, and wonderful word-play. Full of "levity" and "heft," the poems "capture…in meter's narrow aperture" not only the biography/mythology of Bettie Page, but also a strong sense of an authorial coming to terms with her own formal ars poetica. Indeed, "it's hard outside constraints that you construct," but it's easy as cheesecake to appreciate these poems, on the cutting edge of contemporary work that is keeping the seemingly ancient form of the sonnet smart, sexy, and ever so relevant.
Moira Egan
In alternately saucy and searing formal lyrics, Heidi Czerwiec costumes herself in the contradictory and enigmatic guises of Bettie Page: sex symbol, icon, girl next door, fetish, recluse, victim, myth. Czerwiec's elegant forms reclaim formalism as sexy, even a little bit kinky, with a sly twist of camp, through positing form as a type of bondage, or S&M play. These deft poems playfully pin up and seriously pin down the Bettie Page mystique and the performative and elusive subjectivity of female sexuality—as well as the complex relationships of subject to object, free to formal verse, and bodies au naturel to bodies in bondage.

Awesome tires!
By Don
from KC, MO
These are on all of my good bikes. Weather on my TT bike, My road bike or my paved trail's bike... I use these. They are VERY fast and I have ended up with a KOM on quite a few Strava segments.
By Mike O
from SoFlo
After doing some research, these tires consistently received high ratings from various cycling websites and publications. So, I tried them out. This is my 3rd set in 5 years. I can say that, as advertised, they roll much noticeably better than the stock tires that came on my bike. Your results might be different but, I haven't had a flat since switching over to them. I do a lot of A group rides and the last thing you want is to get dropped because of a flat. GREAT tire.
Best tire I've used
By Mark H.
from Ohio
Great tire. Very smooth ride and you can feel the low rolling resistance. Has been more durable than I expected with few flats. I did have to replace one when the sidewall was damaged and I didn't want to continue riding on it. I like 700x25 size for my road bike although they run big.

I wanted to like these
By Tire wrencher
from Boston, MA
About Me Casual/ Recreational
I bought these when I decided to upgrade the stock wheels and tires on my Trek. The tires are install easily, are light, and roll fast. The rolling surface has also proved durable on the rough roads around Boston. So far I have blown through the sidewalls on 3 of the four tires I've bought. The first flat I blamed on some roadside debris, the second also happened when I was riding in the shoulder for a moment. Each of these tires failed with fewer than 50 miles on them. The third also failed quickly, probably under 100 miles, and I was riding on a protected bike path when the sidewall blew out. I have a fourth tire but I doubt that I will ever use it. I'm going back to the stock tires as they are a little heavy and slow but at least they get me through the ride.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Impressive Performance
By Biker Bud
from Pennsylvania
Purchased and installed these tires 4 weeks ago, this past weekend rode in a triathlon in a rural area of PA. About the worst conditions you could imagine to race - twisty, winding, rolling roads with blind curves and sharp S-turns. Oh, did I mention that it poured rain the whole way through the race? And to make it even more fun, PennDOT tarred and chipped the roads on the bike course the week of the race! However, I can say these tires performed beautifully in those conditions! The tires stayed under me the whole race, through some very scary turns, and best of all, NO PUNCTURES from the chipped-roads! Finished with the best overall bike time in the race, and I can't say enough about the quality of these tires! Will definitely be sticking with these Grand Prix's for a long time!

I bought them to go down hill and down hill I wentFast. I picked up 4.5 mph, compared to my old tires. My wt. was 203 this wk.
Fantastic tires! Already 250+ miles and no flats or issues.

Fantastic tires! Already 250+ miles and no flats or issues. Definitely recommend for someone looking for a durable tire that protects against common flats.

from Bend Oregon
The tires were just installed so there is no way I can give a complete review. I look forward to giving them a great checkout. The install was pretty much what I expected for a quality tire requiring plenty of thumb and finger rolling to get them into their last snapping lock. I expect they will make me as happy as my last Continental tires.

Former champion trainer Nicky Henderson has been banned for three months and handed a record fine for administering a prohibited anti-bleeding drug to a horse owned by the Queen.
At a hearing earlier this week, the British Horseracing Authority (BHA) found the 58-year-old trainer guilty of administering tranexamic acid to the queen's mare Moonlit Path before a race at Huntingdon on February 19.
Henderson now facing a ban meaning he will be unable to race any of his horses between July 11 and October 10. He was also fined a record 40,000 pounds.
This is a significant blow to Henderson who is one of Britain's most successful trainers.
The punishment comes in a year when he saddled Punjabi to land his fourth Champion Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and sent out a winner at Royal Ascot.
In a statement, Henderson said: "I am obviously hugely relieved that this saga has been concluded and, even though this seems a harsh sentence, we accept the findings and can now look forward again to the future and an exciting season ahead.
"As we are unable to have any runners for three months in our name, it is going to be all the more difficult to emulate last season's amazing results, but this will make us try even harder to do so.
"Although the medication should not have been administered, I can only re-iterate, as the panel has accepted, that it was only given in the interest of the welfare of Moonlit Path herself.
"The support that I and all the family and the team have received over the last very testing weeks has been quite overwhelming and, under the circumstances, so much appreciated."
Racing personality and Channel 4 betting expert John McCririck attacked the BHA for the severity of the punishment.
"This is a disgraceful slur he (Henderson) will never be able to live down for a man of honour and distinction. He does not dope horses. Racing is harming itself unnecessarily."
In making its decision, the BHA panel took into account various factors, including the fact the substance was administered by an experienced vet whom Henderson considered as an advisor -- and also that the substance is unlikely to act as a performance enhancer.
Also considered was Henderson's contribution to the sport and his charitable activities.
Henderson's 40,000 fine is twice that of the previous record penalty of 20,000 imposed on Michael Wigham in February 2008.
Henderson had admitted to three of the four charges he faced, but denied any wrongdoing in relation to Rule 200, which governs administering or attempting to administer a prohibited substance.
Henderson has always maintained the medication was used "in the interests of the horse's welfare" and not to improve performance.
The two time champion National Hunt trainer, who accrued over two million pounds in prize-money last season, has the right to appeal.
Moonlit Path was making her racecourse debut at Huntingdon, where she finished sixth.
The five-year-old mare, who has subsequently been disqualified from the race, has since run three times, without success.Reuse content

Posted by ESPN.com's Adam Rittenberg
It's not easy to find corporate sponsors these days, especially in Detroit. The Motor City Bowl knows this, and the game's organizers are looking beyond the usual suspects for a title sponsor.
Bowl officials are talking with both Little Ceasars about bowl sponsorship, and a decision could come in the next few weeks. Former sponsors Chrysler and General Motors have dropped out because of bankruptcy issues, while Ford remains a sponsor.
Motor City Bowl CEO George Perles, the former Michigan State coach, told WWJ radio that the bowl's name would change to the Little Caesars Pizza Pizza Bowl. I'm sorry, but I can't type that without smiling and thinking of those Little Ceasars commercials from the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Needless to say, this would be awesome.
The Motor City Bowl pits a middling Big Ten team against the MAC champion, though only two Big Ten squads have appeared in the game since the tie-in agreement began in 2002. The Big Ten's agreement with the Motor City Bowl expires after the 2009 season.
This year's game is scheduled for 1 p.m. on Dec. 26. Motor City Bowl executive director Ken Hoffman tells the Free Press that the game could be played without a title sponsor, though it's likely one will be found.

Since today is Wednesday, you may already have a date planned for Friday or Saturday night. If you are tired of doing the same ole, same ole…here are some new and original ideas to do on dates according to MINDBODYGREEN.com.
I'll be honest…some of these are down right ridiculous. But some seem like they may be kind of fun. Here is what I think…you be the judge.
1. Surprise yourselves with new music.
Find some new and obscure bands playing around town and go take a chance…that could be fun.
2. Take a really long one-way walk.
This sounds like the worst date ever.
3. Go halfsies planning the evening.
This could be either really awesome…or really terrible. You could wind up at a great place…or at his best friends house playing video games…God, lets hope not.
4. Make a fort.
Unless you're going to make-out in it…nope! If a guy asked me on a date and we built a fort…you'd probably see a Jill shaped hole in the front door…UNELSS he has a child…then it's kinda cute.
5. Have a seven-course dinner… at six different places.
My inner fat kids loves this.
6. Try something neither of you have done before.
My vote would be Paul Blart style segways…
7. Do a double feature.
This could be fun if you cook…and watch movies…unless he has horrible tastes in movies…but we could all stand to be exposed to something different…right?
8. Check out a drive-in movie.
Unless it's summertime in Orlando…NEXT!
9. Make a music mix for each other.
Does this sound like a mix tape session to anyone else?
10. Hit the video game arcade.
Kill me
11. Get ice-cream.
That's 2 for 2 with my inner fat kid.
12. Have a "cultured" date.
This website suggests a lecture….feels like school …
13. Shhhh. Make it a silent date.
14. Sneak into a rooftop pool.
Of course…getting arrested on a date is awesome.
15. Visit the old neighborhood.
I don't get it.
16. Make it a mystery dinner.
This is a cool idea…go to a place neiter of you have ever been before…somewhere obscure…if it stinks…who cares…you'll giggle and probably have fun anyway.
17. Re-enact your first date.
This is cute….unless, of course, it is your first date.
18. Cook a five-course meal together.
Five is a little extensive…if you are too iffy with cooking maybe start with 3. Cute Idea though.
19. Pop over to the nearest playground.
See reaction to #4.
20. Pretend to be tourists.
I have done this before and would do it again. Best idea yet.
Have fun!!!!

Company Profile
In December 1993, Arabian Hala Company observed an opportunity to enter the "door-to-door" pickup & delivery service industry. After an intensive market research, it developed a fully computerized overnight express service, encompassing 20 major cities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia under the name of HALA Express. The operations of HALA Express started in June 1994 with a fleet of more than 150 trucks and vans. HALA Express used its financial strength to quickly build up the network and became one of the leading express Transport and Logistics Company in the Kingdom with over 700 vehicles and a network of 4900 cities towns and villages.
In 2005, Saudi Post (Public corporation wholly owned by Government of Saudi Arabia), took an initiative to expand into the Full Truck Load, Parcel and Less than Truck Load segments and approached Arabian Hala Company, to establish an alliance. A joint-venture between Saudi Post and Arabian Hala Company was formed on 1st August 2005 and the formation of "NAQEL" happened. The Company was established with two shareholders, Saudi Post holding 51% equity and Arabian Hala 49% equity, by a special decree passed by the council of ministers.
NAQEL focuses its services on providing Logistics Supply Chain Solutions, to its customers with utmost satisfaction in quality and efficiency. A highly qualified, competent management team consists of both Saudis and Expatriates work towards providing complete customer satisfaction with their vast experiences in the logistics and transportation field.

AiP's project, Albania: Preservation Skills Training for Local Youth taking place in Gjirokastra, Albania, is making great progress since our successful completion of the GlobalGiving challenge. Due to your support, planning is underway for our cooperative effort with the city's Craftsmanship program. The Gjirokastra Conservation and Development Organization (GCDO), with funding from the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, has begun the first stage of a local training program.
Ten youths from Gjirokastra are being trained as woodcarvers and stonemasons. These two occupations have been key to construction of the extraordinary architectural heritage seen in Gjirokastra. The youths will receive four months of training to begin learning the basic skills needed to become skilled craftspeople. They are aiming for jobs in building conservation and artistic souvenir manufacture.
Adventures in Preservation's role is to provide hands-on experience for these trainees at an actual building preservation project. Trainees will join AiP volunteers at the Skenduli House in 2012 to refine their skills and help complete the work needed to save the Ottoman-era Skenduli House. The experience of working on this historic masonry tower house will allow trainees to practice their techniques, improve their skills, and develop a level of competency necessary for professional work. We'll follow their progress and update you on other developments in our next report.
Project Reports on GlobalGiving are posted directly to globalgiving.org by Project Leaders as they are completed, generally every 3-4 months. To protect the integrity of these documents, GlobalGiving does not alter them; therefore you may find some language or formatting issues.
If you donate to this project or have donated to this project, you will get an e-mail when this project posts a report. You can also subscribe for reports via e-mail without donating.
We'll only email you new reports and updates about this project.

Our Mission
As a non-profit 501 (c)(3) orgnaization we are committed to affordable health care for all! We provide quality acupuncture in Salem, OR on a sliding scale of $20-40. No matter what you pay, you will get an effective treatment by a licensed practitioner in a peaceful group setting.
Community Setting
Most US acupuncturists treat patients on tables in individual cubicles. In our clinic we primarily use reclining chairs, clustered in groups in a large, quiet, soothing space. Treating patients in a community setting has many benefits: it's easy for friends and family members to come in for treatment together; many patients find it comforting; and a collective healing influence becomes established which can actually make individual treatments more powerful. Please view the video below!
The style of acupuncture we practice at SCA allows patients to keep their needles in as long as they want, and the "right" amount of time varies from patient to patient. Most people learn after a few treatments when they feel "done"; this can take from twenty minutes to an hour or more! Many people fall asleep, and wake feeling refreshed.
Sliding Scale - $20 to $40
(with an additional one-time intake fee of $10 for your first appointment.)
To reduce the cost of acupuncture treatment and still make a living ourselves, we have streamlined our treatments and see multiple patients an hour. This is similar to how patients are treated in Asia, the birthplace of acupuncture and results in a quality, effective treatment regardless of what you pay.
The sliding scale allows YOU to determine what you will pay. We won't ask you anything about your income. What you pay within the $20-40 range is entirely up to you. Acupuncture works best when patients can come for treatment based on how often they need it rather than how often they can afford it.
Because we have a sliding scale, we cannot do insurance billing (an insurance company rule). If you have insurance that covers acupuncture, we'll be happy to give you a payment receipt, and you can submit it. Please check with your insurance company about the kind of coverage you might have.
Our hours:
Monday 10am-6pm
Tuesday 10am-6pm
Wednesday 10am-6pm
Thursday 10am-6pm
Friday 10am-6pm
Saturday 10am-2pm
Call (503) 798-2918 for an appointment.
Come 15-20 minutes before your first appointment to read and fill out some important paperwork. You can also download those forms here, complete them, and bring them with you to your first appointment:
