Understanding Goji Berry
The goji berry is indigenous to Asia, more specifically Mongolia and the Himalayan Mountains in Tibet. The goji berry has rapidly grown in popularity over the past decade as western civilization has learned what traditional Chinese healers have known for thousands of years. There are many health benefits associated with goji berries.
The goji berry, scientifically known as Lycium barbarum, is a member of the Solanaeae family of plants. Like its many health benefits, the goji berry also has a few names. The goji berry is also called the wolfberry, barbary and matrimony vine. Regardless of name, the goji berry has a long history of use in China, and is an excellent source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
Goji Berry Plant Features
The goji berry grows on a woody evergreen shrub that can reach up to nine feet tall. The goji plant is a perennial and blooms in the summer months producing a lavender colored bloom. As with most fruit plants, this bloom then grows into the goji berry.
The goji berries are small, tender and oval in shape. They are delicate fruit and harvesting the goji berries requires some skill and care. As the fruit can be up to nine feet off the ground, care must be taken when harvesting the berries to no bruise or damage the fruit. Once the goji berry has been harvested it is dried, leaving the reddish orange colored goji berries wrinkled similar to that of a raisin.
Goji Berry Nutrients
While the goji berry may be a small fruit in size, the list of nutrients found in goji berries is quite large. Goji berries are an excellent source of beta-carotene, lutein, zeazanthin, lycopene, polysaccharides, fatty acids, peptidoglycans and vitamins C and E. In additional to these nutrients, goji berries are also rich in minerals our bodies need for daily functions; minerals such as calcium, iron, potassium, riboflavin, zinc and selenium. One final item on the nutrients found in goji berries is that they contain antioxidant properties too. Compounds such as glycosides, alkaloids, as well as flavonoids, peptides and phenolic amides are found in goji berries and help to keep our bodies healthy.
Health Benefits of Goji Berry
The intention of this page is for general information about goji berry. The health benefits of goji are quite extensive and in some cases disputed. While traditional Chinese healers have been using goji berries for medicinal purposed for more than 2000 years, Western medicine is currently researching and proving the health benefits of goji berry.
With that said, there is no disputing the antioxidant properties of goji berries. The antioxidants contained are powerful and can help with a variety of conditions. Increase in fertility , regulating blood glucose levels, strengthening the immune system are just some of the health benefits associated with goji berries.
Preparation and Consumption of Goji Berry
Goji berries can be consumed in a variety of ways. If you have the ability to purchase dried goji berries you can simply eat them through-out the day or boil them to create an herbal tea. However the availability of dried goji berries is not wide spread.
For this reason the main source of goji berries for most people is through goji berry juice. As with any juice product, the quality and content of the juices will vary. You must understand what you are getting with your purchase so that you are satisfied with the results.

Ball Boy
So the name of the movie is Guys and Balls, eh? What, is it about a gay soccer team or something? Um, actually yeah, it is. And the titles double entendre is wholly intended, as is the subtle snickering it invites. This is, after all, a romantic comedy (and a German one, at that). But its also a film about overcoming adversity the adversity of small-minded jocks who cant deal with a little diversity.
Ecki works at his fathers bakery in the small town of Dortmund, though his real passion is soccer. But after getting blamed for blowing his teams big game, Eckis on the outs with his teammates. And thats just the start of it; when they learn of Ecki s homosexuality, they give him the boot. Determined, Ecki vows to assemble an all-gay soccer team to challenge his former mates, giving himself a timeline of only four weeks. As Ecki soon learns, its an uphill battle, both on and off the field -- but its a battle he has to fight. Its either that or a lifetime of enduring gay baker jokes. Guys and Balls is shown Thursday through Sunday at Cinema Paradiso (503 NE Sixth St., Fort Lauderdale). Call 954-525-FILM, or visit www.fliff.com.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. I've stayed there for two nights to visit family. upon check in the desk clerk was very professional and friendly. during the next stay there the housekeeping representative made sure that everything was replenished in my room. I'm not sure if we are allowed to leave tips for the staff but I did anyway due to the excellent service. not to mention everything within the hotel range as far food and tourist attractions were close. I would definitely come back there.

Apparitions and Thought-transference: An Examination of the Evidence for TelepathyThe attention which, notwithstanding these drawbacks, that work excited on its first appearance, the friendly reception which it met with in many quarters, and the fact that a considerable edition has been disposed of, encouraged the hope that a book on somewhat similar lines, but on a smaller scale, might be of service to those--and their number has probably increased within the last few years--who take a genuine interest in this inquiry. Accordingly in the autumn of 1892 I obtained permission from the Council of the Society for Psychical Research to make full use, in the compilation of the present work, not merely of the evidence already published by us, but of the not inconsiderable mass of unpublished records in the possession of the Society. It will be seen that the present book has little claim to novelty of design; but it is not merely an abridged edition of the larger work referred to. On the one hand it has a somewhat wider scope, and includes accounts of telepathic clairvoyance and other phenomena which did not enter into the scheme of Mr. Gurney's book. On the other hand, the bulk of the illustrative cases here quoted have been taken from more recent records; and, in particular, certain branches of the experimental work have assumed a quite new importance within the last few years"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)-from electronic catalog record. |

The increased discharge of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) from hypothalamic neurons after castration specifically stimulates pituitary gonadotropes. To elucidate the putative effects of GnRH on the three-dimensional ultrastructure of gonadotropes, we examined osmium-macerated pituitary tissues of male rats at various time points after castration by high resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) combined with immunocytochemistry. Two days after castration, the Golgi apparatus was disassembled into small stacks; patch-like, tubuloreticular clusters of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes were present; and spherically enlarged mitochondria were accumulated in the central area of the stimulated gonadotropes. These acute changes were indiscernible by 1 week after castration, and then the pituitary gonadotropes of castrated animals gradually became hypertrophic, finally exhibiting the characteristic "signet-ring" appearance, with markedly dilated cisterns of the rough ER. Upon SEM observation, the inner surface of the cavity was mostly flat, and openings connecting adjacent lumens of the ER were sparse. Proliferation of the osmiophilic tubular network of the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment was observed in the persistently stimulated gonadotropes, indicating a marked increase in trafficking of secretory proteins between the Golgi and ER. The acute and chronic changes in the gonadotropes after castration revealed in the present study by SEM provide evidence for a putative link between the intracellular signaling events evoked by GnRH and the ultrastructural dynamics of the organelles of the secretory pathway.

The gene mutation and expression profiles of gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) have not been comprehensively determined. Here, we examined the gene mutation and expression profiles of NEC using whole exome sequencing (WES) and microarray analysis. Six patients with gastric NEC and 13 with gastric adenocarcinoma (GAD) were included in this study. Single nucleotide variants were compared and multivariate statistical investigation with orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) was performed to compare the difference in expression profiles between NEC and GAD. NEC showed a significantly higher mutation rate than GAD and the percentage difference in the mutation pattern of NEC compared with GAD was 92.8%. OPLSDA clearly discriminated between NEC and GAD. We identified 35 genes, including CPLX2 (Complexin 2), which were expressed more strongly in NEC than in GAD, of which 14 were neural-related. Immunohistochemical analysis showed the strong expression of CPLX2 in all NECs, versus expression in only 2 of 13 GADs. Gastric NEC had a specific mutation pattern with a significantly higher gene mutation rate than GAD, and completely differed from GAD on the basis of gene expression profile. CPLX2 might be a potential novel biomarker for the diagnosis of NEC.

The mechanisms of action of gemcitabine (GEM) and paclitaxel (PTX) have been well investigated, and shown to be the inhibition of DNA polymerase and polymerization of tubulin, respectively. Meanwhile, genomic research has revealed that mutations in the K-RAS oncogene occur in over 90% of pancreatic cancer. Oncogenic alteration rewires alternative metabolic pathways to satisfy the demands of growth. The K-RAS oncogene also has been shown to upregulate glycolysis and glutaminolysis. However, it is still unclear whether K-RAS independently plays a central role in controlling tumor metabolism. Here, we conducted a metabolomic analysis of a simple oncogenic K-RAS cell line model constructed using human telomerase catalytic subunit-immortalized human pancreatic epithelial nestin-expressing cell lines with and without K-RASG12D. We also investigated the effect of GEM and PTX on these cells. As a result, it was shown in the cell with K-RASG12D that the level of lactate was increased and glutamic acid, glutamine, and aspartic acid levels were decreased. In the nucleotide metabolism, GEM-treated cells showed metabolic changes, whereas these phenomena were not observed in PTX-treated cells. In conclusion, it was suggested that K-RASG12D independently modified tumor metabolism and the difference between GEM and PTX in the nucleotide metabolism was revealed.

CD44 variant 9 (CD44v9) and the heavy chain of 4F2 cell-surface antigen (CD98hc) appear important for regulation of reactive oxygen species defence and tumor growth in gastric cancer. This study examined the roles of CD44v9 and CD98hc as markers of gastric cancer recurrence, and investigated associations with energy metabolism. We applied capillary electrophoresis time-of-flight mass spectrometry to metabolome profiling of gastric cancer specimens from 103 patients who underwent resection with no residual tumor or microscopic residual tumor, and compared metabolite levels to immunohistochemical staining for CD44v9 and CD98hc. Positive expression rates were 40.7% for CD44v9 and 42.7% for CD98hc. Various tumor characteristics were significantly associated with CD44v9 expression. Five-year recurrence-free survival rate was significantly lower for CD44v9-positive tumors (39.1%) than for CD44v9-negative tumors (73.5%; P < 0.0001), but no significant differences in recurrence-free survival were seen according to CD98hc expression. Uni- and multivariate analyses identified positive CD44v9 expression as an independent predictor of poorer recurrence-free survival. Metabolome analysis of 110 metabolites found that levels of glutathione disulfide were significantly lower and reduced glutathione (GSH)/ glutathione disulfide (GSSG) ratio was significantly higher in CD44v9-positive tumors than in CD44v9-negative tumors, suggesting that CD44v9 may enhance pentose phosphate pathway flux and maintain GSH levels in cancer cells.

Heat processes, low temperature for long time (LTLT) pasteurization and ultra-heat treatment (UHT) sterilization, are essential for commercial market milk to improve the shelf life of raw milk and ensure microbial safety. We evaluated the effects of heat experience on the molecular properties of α-lactalbumin (α-LA) and β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) isolated from four types of market milk such as LTLT-A (66°C for 30 min), LTLT-B (65°C for 30 min), UHT-I (130°C for 2 s, indirect heating) and UHT-D (135°C for 2 s, direct heating) samples. We examined molecular conformations using circular dichroism spectrum measurement and cell growth activity using the WST-1 method for the proteins. α-LA isolated from each of these four types of market milk displayed no significant structural difference as compared to raw milk α-LA, while α-LA of UHT-I only inhibited cell growth of an intestinal epithelial cell line more potently than raw milk α-LA. In the case of β-LG, only the UHT-I sample demonstrated a drastic change in structure, while it did not exhibit any cytotoxicity. We found that cell viability effects of α-LA and β-LG are attributable to the type of UHT; indirect and direct. These findings indicate that the effect of heat treatment on whey proteins should carefully be investigated further.

In tooth root development, periodontal ligament (PDL) and cementum are formed by the coordination with the fragmentation of Hertwig's epithelial root sheath (HERS) and the differentiation of dental follicle mesenchymal cells. However, the function of the dental epithelial cells after HERS fragmentation in the PDL is not fully understood. Here, we found that TGF-β regulated HERS fragmentation via epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and the fragmented epithelial cells differentiated into PDL fibroblastic cells with expressing of PDL extracellular matrix (ECM). In the histochemical analysis, TGF-β was expressed in odontoblast layer adjacent of HERS during root development. Periostin expression was detected around fragmented epithelial cells on the root surface, but not in HERS. In the experiment using an established mouse HERS cell line (HERS01a), TGF-β1 treatment decreased E-cadherin and relatively increased N-cadherin expression. TGF-β1 treatment in HERS01a induced further expression of important ECM proteins for acellular cementum and PDL development such as fibronectin and periostin. Taken together, activation of TGF-βsignaling induces HERS fragmentation through EMT and the fragmented HERS cells contribute to formation of PDL and acellular cementum through periostin and fibronectin expression.

The effects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) on osteoclastogenesis were examined using fish scales that had both osteoclasts and osteoblasts. The binding of the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) in osteoblasts to the receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) in osteoclasts induced osteoclastogenesis. Therefore, we focused on RANK/RANKL signaling. After 6 h of incubation following LIPUS treatment, mRNA expression of RANKL increased significantly. Resulting from the increased RANKL mRNA level, the expression of transcription-regulating factors significantly increased after 6 h of incubation, and then the mRNA expression of functional genes was significantly up-regulated after 12 h of incubation. However, the mRNA expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG), which is known as an osteoclastogenesis inhibitory factor, also significantly increased after 6 h of incubation and tended to further increase after 12 h of incubation. At 24 h of incubation, osteoclastic functional genes' mRNA expression decreased to the level of the control. Furthermore, we performed an in vivo experiment with goldfish. Two weeks after daily LIPUS exposure, osteoclastic marker enzymes tended to decrease while osteoblastic marker enzymes were activated. The regeneration rate of the LIPUS-treated scales was significantly higher than that of the control scales. Thus, LIPUS moderately activates osteoclasts and induces bone formation.

Oocyte maturation in medaka is induced by the maturation-inducing hormone (MIH) via its membrane receptor. The most likely candidates for the membrane receptor are membrane progestin receptors (mPRs). In order to characterize the mPRα subtype of medaka, a human cell line expressing the mPRα gene of medaka was established and its steroid binding property was assessed. The α subtype exhibited high binding affinity for 17,20β-DHP, the MIH in medaka. Treatment with a morpholino antisense oligonucleotide to mPRα blocked oocyte maturation in vivo. These results suggest that the medaka mPRα protein acts as an intermediary during MIH-induced oocyte maturation in medaka in a manner similar to that described previously for fish species.

Cuca (born Cuca Eschevaria) was a female dance\R&B singer from the 80's.
According to Discogs.com, she was a member of Fat Larry's Band and provided vocals on Pretty Poison's song, "The Look" on their 1987 album, "Catch Me I'm Falling."
In 1988, Cuca released the single, "Young Love" on Alpha International Records. The song managed to peak at #62 on Billboard's Hot Black Singles chart, staying on the chart for 7 weeks.
After that, it seems as if Cuca has faded into obscurity. Nothing much has been heard from her since the '80s.

In now its third full year, the Madison Collaborative Educators program has evolved into a small but mighty group of student facilitators. In the past semester alone, the number of projects and workshops this group has taken on has grown immensely. The hard work put into 2016 has now set a precedent for success and more opportunities to look forward to in 2017.
The MCEs hit the ground running in the late August heat in assisting the presentation of "Contagion," the new It's Complicated case created by the Madison Collaborative. This case not only sought the collaboration of the educators, but also from several different departments and staff members at JMU. As bright first-year students arrived to campus for 1787 August Orientation, over 170 facilitators were trained and ready to guide freshmen in their first ethical reasoning discussion on campus. The feedback we received from students and facilitators alike was a thrilling motivator to make next year's program even better. Continue reading
Ah, class enrollment –it's that exciting yet anxious time of the semester once again at JMU. For some it can be as easy as clicking the "enroll" button on your shopping cart, lounging in the comfort of home and seeing a screen full of green check marks. For others, it's a frantic fight to pull out a laptop in the middle of a current class only to discover that your desired class just closed. This then prompts an anxious hunt to find an open course just minutes before your enrollment appointment starts, all the while trying desperately not to lose hours of planning and a much hoped-for schedule. With blood, sweat, and tears in between, students struggle with the dilemma of how to get the courses that will most benefit them. The methods and attitude while venturing through this crucial decision are what matter.
In a Madison Alert message (part of the notification system used to share timely safety information with the JMU community during urgent or emergency situations) sent on October 4, 2016, there was an announcement regarding the actions taken by students against a perceived threat, this threat being "creepy clown" sightings. The news of these supposed sightings spread like wildfire across many forms of social media. While there was no evidence to support this rumor, many went beyond just transmitting this news and took action themselves.
Students ran rampant on a dark JMU campus, forming a giant hunting party to search for the clowns and arming themselves with baseball bats, pepper spray, and other objects for "self-defense." While mob mentality can have a very powerful effect on group behavior, these students still voluntarily responded in this aggressive manner. How does this reflect those students' character? Does it make them noble and brave…or foolish and impulsive? Rather than behaving like the enlightened citizens JMU encourages all students to be, the actions of these Dukes was irrational and potentially dangerous.

As a teaching assistant and peer advisor, I have seen and heard a wide variety of things during office hours, but nothing could have prepared me for what happened on a seemingly quiet Monday afternoon. As I was studying during advising hours, the sound of loud, frantic running feet rumbled down the hall. While hearing a stampede of footsteps down the hallway isn't a normal occurrence in a university academic building, my first thought was that it might be a group of students from a local high school going to the planetarium. This assumption was proved wrong shortly thereafter when a campus police officer dashed by and in a whispered tone, ordered us to evacuate the building immediately. Trying to make sense of this, I assumed it must be a drill so I packed up and quickly exited the back entrance of the building. To my surprise, there was a crowd of concerned faces waiting across the street, staring back at me when I opened the door. Waiting and watching attentively, we all were desperate to know what was going on in order to assess the possible danger for ourselves.
Without any explanation, the police officers came out of the building fifteen minutes later and told us we could go back inside. The only answer we received as to why we were evacuated in the first place was, "It was a false alarm, and it could have been anything."
…What could have?!

AM Stereo
I am curious about AM stereo. Some AM broadcast station claims "Stereo" for its AM. What kind of AM encoding currently used and available? I would like to find receiver/tuner for this. Previously I heard such as Denon TU-680 and 1500 support this, but now it is no longer produced. One of Marantz tuner available is ST6001, not sure if it support C-Quam. Most product available is receiver (for home audio). What current brand/type that has AM stereo encoding, and what kind of encoding? Or is AM stereo obsolete, so that few manufacturer create such product? Thanks, Ervin L |

I think it is a mostly abandoned format - it didn't get great public acceptance. There were about 5 competing formats in the early 1980s. There are probably still a few stereo broadcasts, but it's not really widely used anymore.

The new thing at least in the US is "HD" AM or FM digital radio.
The "HD" stands for Hybrid Digital not High Definition.

Some Chrysler car radios supported AM stereo; a friend had one in his K-car. Not exactly current, but if they haven't all been crushed, they should be cheap.
AM stereo tuners may be better than the average AM tuner, since IIRC they used synchronous detection. |

Can you mention some current AM stereo tuner to compare? (e.g. Marantz, Denon, Yamaha, Sherwood, Sony etc)? I can't find detail of information in the website. Just curious if it still exists and affordable (as there are some AM stations which claim as stereo around my region).

I have a Kenwood KT900, (around 1983) that was supposed to come with an optional stereo decoder box - which Kenwood never finally produced.
The stereo decoder picks off the 450kHz AM-IF signal. I did buy a Motorola MC13020 decoder chip to add stereo myself, but then the format lost support and there didn't seem, much point to pursuing the project.

I doubt there's any AM stereo tuners in current production, except possibly in some specialized all band all mode communications receiver.
Car radios can have higher performance tuners than most home stereo receivers, because they have to work under more arduous conditions of reception, temperature, and vibration. And auto manufacturers had a captive market, so they weren't forced to make as many cost saving compromises. Make a list of as many different car and home or portable AM stereo tuners as you can find evidence of, then set up a saved search on eBay. Or contact autowrecking yards and say you're looking for a certain car radio. Of course, if your country uses a different AM band range or station spacing than North America, an imported digital AM tuner may not work so well. |

You can only receive what is being broadcast. No US AM stations are now transmitting analog stereo, some are transmitting digital stereo. The digital part of a tuner only works if the station is transmitting a digital signal. The tuner will switch back to analog if the digital signal is too weak. As digital needs a stronger signal than analog.

AM wasteland
Just to understand why AM stereo disappeared, the US AM band is now 99% talk radio. Lots of call in shows where people that can't figure out how to work the internet talk on the air. No benefit to hearing your local self-appointed "expert" on a mono-phone line broadcast in stereo. Pity, I used to enjoy listening to certain classy "clear channel" AM stations late at night all across the nation. KRLD AM Dallas and their classical program is one I particularly miss, as 1/3 the nation is totally "Country Music" and hog market reports on the FM band now. And you can't get satelite radio unless you get a credit card from one of the two too-big-to-fail banks, BankAmerica or Citibank and agree to donate money until they decide to let you go. Oh, well, at least CD's don't melt in the car, although thieves are particularly attracted to them even if they are classical and unsaleable.

100 Best Sports Photographs of 2010 (Part 1 of 4)
In this first installment of the 100 Best Sports Photographs of 2010, I bring you the best 25 pictures from January, February, and March. Three more installments will follow. This isn't easy, believe me. And although I'm calling it the 100 best, it's a totally subjective and biased selection, with the hard-working committee (made up of, well, just me) both nominating and judging the entries in isolation. I cringe thinking of all the amazing pictures I left out. Ultimately, I value variety, intensity, humor, and majesty. In the coming days I'll post three more entries of 25 pictures each as I celebrate the work of brilliant photographers worldwide. ( 25 photos total)

oooo wish you luck shade
oooo wish you luck shade
Credit to Astral Shadow!
Do what? Also should we have a Halloween tourney? But I can't play on the 1st because I'm at a sleepover. Any time after or before that is fine. I'll make a list of pokes that you can use. Good idea?
Oh and shade what about the names I suggested by VM? And can I work there only doing pony art cuz I'm crap at everything else. What about The Shadetastic Shop of Stuff and Nonsense.
I like the idea of a Halloween tourney. This one has to be a BW2 WiFi tourney though. How about "The Hoenn Triangle's Final Fear Challenge" as the name of the tourney! You like,OrnaNorns....lol :3
I can't to the Halloween tourney. I'm in Ireland. I'm being a vampire for Halloween. You guys?
Probably last years costume which is a hooded thingy that has a thing to cover yourcarface so nobody can see it, and holding some kind of severed hand.
Okay when I finish my maths homework I'll make some basic rules that people can add to. Shade when are you Ireland?
I'm not doing Halloween, but the tourney sounds great. My BW/BW2 Rain team is great, and works like a proper team. I'm not sure if I'll use that as my team for this tourney.
Can we please NOT do OU for this tourney. Do a different tier for some flair.
Day before halloween till the next sunday. so tuesday 30th-sunday.
LOL...I nearly peed when I saw this...IDK why...probably the Carface thing. I honestly don't know what I'm gonna be for Halloween. Last year I was a Zomebie Teenager, the year before that a Grampa Clown. Yeah, I like to combine random things. I really liked the Zombie Teenager though. I made my hair look like Justin Bieber for a day! YES! In under three ours, Black 2 will be in my 3DS...I read the Recent Happenings thread and litterally 96% of people are catching a Riolu...not me though.
Can you guys join my RPG? http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthr...e-New-Prophecy <----- RPG.
------> Sign Up. http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthr...e-New-Prophecy
I won't either. I like your team Hudsonn, it's cool. I'm using Serperior, Espeon, Flygon, Chandelure, Azumarill and Aggron.
K then if it starts on... If it starts as soon as possible after Shade gets back then it'll be Friday which is too late so... I really don't know. We might not have enough time to train for before Shade goes so... I dunno. I don't wanna cut Shade
Oh I'm not having a planned team.
I'm up for the tourney ^^ Just state the rules. I'd like it to be Wi-Fi too although I'm not sure if I can make a proper team in BW2 until then :P

Did anyone actually see my original post? I'm bored. I did 3 bits of homework today, and I'll continue on my Marksman on Skyrim. I may go to UU, I'm changing Walrein to Azumarill on my planned Emerald team and I'll begin HG soon.
Hmm...I want to switch Metagross out of my B2 team but it'll be great against Iris so I won't. Apparently everyone is getting curbstomped by Cheren!
First time isn't it? And Samurott and Flygon can probably easily handle Iris. I'm not using the planned team; I'll plan again and then make it. @Hudsonn, I know I asked before, but where did you get your team thing in your signature? I'll put one in mine to start it again.
Hello members of THT. you can cut me from the tourney.
Brutaka's Fly High Request Shop...
We know.
BW2 (I'll start with White) team: Serperior, Electivire, Espeon, Flygon, Aggron and Eelektross.
Oh, and thanks Hudsonn.
Im gonna do my homework, then i'll be back.
Okay. I'm going to play Skyrim for a bit now. Or stay online and do stuff.
Im baack
Im gonna do stuff for my new art shop.

Lol this should so be the catchphrase:


text:
The couple own their flat in southwest London and also own two other flats that are rented out. Each is worth around pounds 120,000. One of the rented flats still has a pounds 10,000 mortgage outstanding, which is due to be paid off next year with a maturing endowment policy from General Accident. The Butterfields have around pounds 110,000 in savings: pounds 18,000 in tax-free Tessas with Birmingham Midshires building society, pounds 40,000 in premium bonds, pounds 30,000 in a deposit account required as backing for the holiday company, pounds 5,000 in a current account and pounds 20,000 in a building society.
Ashley also has pounds 50,000 in various pension funds and adds a further pounds 500 a year.
The business has produced profits averaging pounds 30,000 a year for the past six years, but there is an estimated pounds 14,000 income tax bill due when it stops trading next year.
The Butterfields have no children or dependent relatives. They want to know how best to run down their assets as they get older while ensuring they maintain their standard of living, costing pounds 15,000 a year, and do not want to leave any property or money at death. They also want to give a set pounds 10,000 a year to an Indian charity.
What a financial adviser recommends:
The Butterfields' assets are such that they have little reason to worry about being able to maintain their standard of living.
While they plan to pack in the tour business, they should hang on to their investment flats. These presently produce pounds 19,000 a year, or pounds 15,000 after agent costs, maintenance and insurance. If the Butterfields put their personal tax allowances against this rental income, they could still walk away with around pounds 13,700 a year net. The rents should keep pace with inflation and should be fairly safe from any downturn in the property market.
That said, the couple do need to remain aware of the potential pain of managing the properties (overcome in the past by using reputable agents), as well as the possibility of loss of income if the properties should become unlettable and/or if new Labour were to bump up tax on rental income. If the Butterfields did decide or need to sell a property in the future then it would be tax-efficient for this to be their present home, as profits on this, as their "principal place of residence" would be free of capital gains tax (CGT). They could either move into one of the investment flats (profits on which are subject to capital gains tax so long as it is not their place of residence) or even trade down.
Ashley has not put as much in his pension fund as he could have over the years. Under "carry back" and "carry forward" pension rules it may be possible to top up his pension plan by as much as pounds 50,000 when the business stops trading. By putting this money in his pension plan Ashley would in effect avoid paying much of the expected pounds 14,000 income tax bill - the tax relief on the investment would cancel out the bill. Once invested, the money would also grow tax-free and, when cashed in, a quarter could be taken as a tax-free lump sum.
Part of this big pension investment can come from the maturing endowment policy, which should be worth at least pounds 25,000. If the mortgage lender will allow, the Butterfields should keep their pounds 10,000 mortgage, so that the interest can be offset against the before-tax rental income. Given that the Butterfields are older they should beware of direct exposure to the ups and downs of the stock market. Instead they should choose "with-profits" pension funds and those with guarantees.
The pounds 40,000 of premium bonds the Butterfields presently have are not an appropriate investment given that the couple want a guaranteed and even flow of income. Most, or all, should be sold.
Along with the pounds 30,000 no longer needed to back the tour business, the Butterfields will still have a portfolio that is unnecessarily flush with cash. They could leave pounds 25,000 in a range of societies in the hope of windfalls. Then they should look at tax-free PEPs. The couple can put a total of pounds 12,000 into general PEPs this tax year, though that is still likely to leave more than pounds 60,000.
The Butterfields have no desire to manage their own investment portfolio. With this in mind they could consider a unit trust management service. It would be possible to set up a regular withdrawal facility to create an income paid in part from the sale of units. This money could be used both to fund the pounds 10,000 that is to go to charity and to bridge the shortfall between the rental income and the required inflation-proofed pounds 15,000.
Assuming the Butterfields draw pounds 3,000 a quarter from the PEPs and unit trust service, and that the funds meanwhile grow by an average of 7.5 per cent a year, then this money would run out after eight years. By that time, when Ashley is 65 and also due a reduced state pension, the pension funds should have grown substantially allowing them to be cashed in to replace the PEP and unit trust income.
q Ashley and Jane Butterfield were talking to Stephen Dight, managing director of Grosvenor Financial Services, which is based in Henley-on- Thames and is a member of The Financial Options Group, a network of independent financial advisers.

text: Woman Used Ambulance Like a Taxi, Ignoring the Social ContractDoug Barry4/28/13 9:15pmFiled to: scamssocial contractambulanceemergencysouth carolina1902EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkThe social contract is a sacred thing, and, in the vacuum of constant police surveillance in which most people carry on with their daily-chores, we count on strangers to follow a few unstated or quietly stated rules that help society run with greater efficiency. Don't sneeze into a crowd of people with one's mouth open. Don't cut people off in traffic. Pick up your dog's shit if you live in an urban area. Don't throw garbage on the ground. Don't fake illnesses in order to trick a well-meaning ambulance crew into driving you downtown so you can gambol about the CBD without a care in the world about rush hour traffic, which is precisely what a 51-year-old South Carolina woman did at least 100 times in the last seven years.AdvertisementAccording to the Dorchester County Sheriff's Office, Audrey Ferguson pulled the 'ol free ambulance ride trick 100-too many times. She was arrested back at the beginning of April (just a measly 24-hours shy of April Fool's Day, too) when a Dorchester County deputy arrested her at the Trident Medical Center for bumming ambulance rides. Dorchester County EMS Director Doug Warren had suspected for quite some time that Ferguson had been faking, but said that her vague complaints of "abdominal pain" were sometimes linked to a real medical issue, so the medics who responded to her calls were more or less compelled to treat each ride like it was a medical necessity.Most of the rides, however, most likely were not — after a ride down to the hospital, medics noticed that Ferguson often signed out of the hospital before they could even finish their paperwork. Moreover, according to an incident report from April 2, Ferguson's ambulance rides were quite costly to the other members of the Dorchester County social contract:AdvertisementAccording to the incident report, Ferguson said she didn't have a car and this was the only way she had to get around and Medicaid paid for it anyway. It was part of her benefits.And all of those ambulance trips taken by Ferguson?Each one costs $425, plus mileage.Officials say what Medicaid doesn't pay, taxpayers will have foot the rest of the bill, more than $400,000.Let this be a reminder to you all — pick up your dog's shit. Seriously, people step in it like all the time.[Live WCSC]SponsoredImage via Getty, Topical Press AgencyReply190 repliesLeave a reply

Angolan lawyers, who argue that President Jose Eduardo dos Santos' billionaire daughter was illegally appointed as the chief executive of the state oil company, have applied for their case to be heard in court.
LUANDA, Jan 4 (Reuters) - Angolan lawyers, who argue that President Jose Eduardo dos Santos' billionaire daughter was illegally appointed as the chief executive of the state oil company, have applied for their case to be heard in the Constitutional Court. Angola's Supreme Court on Dec. 27 rejected an application by 12 human rights lawyers to have Isabel dos Santos removed as the head of Sonangol, which handles the oil and gas reserves of Africa's largest oil exporter. The lawyers, who accuse the president of nepotism and violating Angolan probity law, asked the Supreme Court on Tuesday to allow the Constitutional Court to hear an appeal against its ruling. "We have filed an extraordinary appeal at the Supreme Court, who transit the process to the Constitutional Court," said David Mendes, one of the attorneys. "Nobody should get advantage based on their origin." Mendes and the 11 other lawyers also argue that the seven months taken by the Supreme Court to come to a decision break guidelines on prompt rulings. However, Jose Carlos, a lawyer not among the 12, thinks it will be difficult to prove any illegality by the president. "The authors of the appeal would have to be clear and deep to prove the unconstitutionality of the appointment, which would be a surprise and very unlikely to be found," Carlos said. Ranked as Africa's richest woman by Forbes magazine, Isabel Dos Santos, 43, was given the job in June, prompting critics to accuse the president of trying to control state resources. Dos Santos, 74, has been in power since 1979 and is one of Africa's longest serving leaders. He says he will step down in 2018. Watchdog group Transparency International ranked Angola 163 out of 168 countries in its index of perceived corruption in the public sector, and said it had "minimal" budget openness. Isabel dos Santos says she was given the job because of her business acumen, and she has pledged to root out waste and corruption at a company that was struggling to stay afloat even before oil prices plunged. She holds controlling stakes in several companies in Angola and former colonial ruler Portugal, including energy, mobile telecoms and banking sector investments.

Community and Public Health promotes positive sexual and reproductive health and responsible sexual behaviour.
Our aim is to reduce the incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV/AIDS, and unintended pregnancies. We also promote positive attitudes to sexuality and relationships.
New Zealand has high rates of STIs and unintended pregnancies compared to other countries. Chlamydia rates are especially high, and gonorrhoea has also re-emerged in the past few years. Both of these rates are a concern for young people aged 15 to 24 years, and syphilis cases have also increased in older age groups. HIV rates are still a concern, since there is a close relationship between the spread of HIV and other STIs.
Our key messages are:
- Delay your first sex experience
- Use condoms and lubricants every time – lube makes condoms less likely to break and increase pleasure
- Limit number of sexual partners
- Use reliable contraception unless you want a baby now
- Protect your whakapapa (family tree) – untreated STIs can cause infertility
- Have regular sexual health check ups – some STIs have no symptoms
- Drinking alcohol can affect the decisions you make, including around sex
Staff at Community and Public Health provide the following services:
- Sexual and reproductive health information to the public
- Distribution of condoms and lubricants
- Educational sessions for high needs groups in the community (limited sessions available)
- Dr G online service for young people answering questions on sexuality and relationships
- Seminars to update and inform those working in the sexual health/youth areas (four times a year)
- Support the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender community through the Pink Health Otautahi project
- Contact tracing for Sexually Transmitted Infections
- Handle requests for information and complaints around the Prostitution Reform Act.
- Produce a sexual health newsletter twice a year

Home Energy Savings | Power Saving Tips | Saving Energy at Home | ||
Energy Saving Windows Windows are one of the great energy-wasters of any house. About 25% of the total heat loss is from traditional double glazed sealed windows. New technology, however, has resulted in more efficient energy saving windows that can significantly cut down on heat loss. Heat loss is not the only concern with windows they can also let in heat during summer weather. This can increase the cost of running an air conditioner. Modern windows use special materials to treat the window glass. Low emission coatings are applied to the inside surface which reduce heat loss through the glass. The windows are constructed of two layers of glass with an inert gas in between them. This gas usually argon reduces heat loss even more. To prevent the sun from over-heating the sun during the summer, the glass can be treated with a reflective coating that reduces interior temperatures. This type of coating, however, is not suitable for cold climates because the windows can also be a source of winter heat during sunny days. There are many components to energy saving windows that can help cut down on your heating and cooling costs. The glazings (layers of glass) can be coated, and some manufacturers may use multiple glazings to reduce heat loss. Coated glazings are beneficial in reducing heat loss and they can also reduce the amount of Ultra Violet (UV) light that enters the house. UV causes colors to fade in drapes and carpets, so using this type of window can make these items last longer. The frames of energy saving windows can be made from wood, aluminum, PVC, or composites. The best types are wood or PVC because the heat loss from the frame itself is reduced. To further enhance the energy saving qualities of the windows, non-metallic spacers are used between the glazings. Windows are sometimes graded according to their insulating value. Investing in energy saving windows is a great idea for both new and older homes. The windows cost a bit more than conventional windows but the savings in your utility bills will make up the difference in a few years.
