hey everyone,
what does buddha say about some actions being involuntary and some actions being totally free will. for example, ive noticed that if i get angry and there is a pencil in my hand, i dont realize ive broken the pencil until i notice it snapped in two in my hand. meaning there is no pause in between the intetion to brake the pencil and the actual act of breaking the pencil. there is no room to make a choice.

Barium enemaLower gastrointestinal series; Lower GI series
Barium enema is a special x-ray of the large intestine, which includes the colon and rectum.
How the Test is Performed
This test may be done in a doctor's office or hospital radiology department. It is done afteryour colon is completely empty. Your doctor will give you instructions on how to emptyyour colon.
You will lie flat on your back on the x-ray table and an x-ray will be taken.
- You will then be told to lie on your side. The health care provider will gently insert a well-lubricated tube (enema tube) into your rectum. The tube is connected to a bag that holds a liquid containing barium sulfate. It is placed in the rectum.
- The liquid is a type of contrast material that highlights specific areas in the colon, creating a clearer image. The barium flows into your colon and x-ray images are taken. Eventually, the bariumpasses out of your body with your stools.
A small balloon at the tip of the enema tube may be inflated to help keep the barium inside your colon. The health care provider will monitor the flow of the barium on an x-ray fluoroscope screen, which is like a TV monitor.
Sometimes a small amount of air is delivered into the colon to expand it. This allows for even better images. This test is called a double contrast barium enema.
You will be asked to move into different positions and the table will be slightly tipped to get different views. At certain times when the x-ray pictures are taken, you will hold your breath and be still for a few seconds so the images won't be blurry.
The enema tube will be removed after the pictures are taken. You will be given a bedpan or helped to the toilet, so you can empty your bowels and remove as much of the barium as possible. One or two x-rays may be taken after you use the bathroom.
How to Prepare for the Test
Your bowels need to be completely empty before the exam. If they are not empty, the test may miss a problem in your large intestine that needs to be treated.
Your bowels may be emptied using an enema or laxatives, along with a clear liquid diet. You will be asked to drink plenty of clear liquids for 1 to 3 days before the test. Examples of clear liquids are:
- Clear coffee or tea
- Fat-free bouillon or broth
- Gelatin
- Sports drinks
- Strained fruit juices
- Water
How the Test Will Feel
When barium enters your colon, you may feel like you need to have a bowel movement. You may also have a feeling of fullness, moderate to severe cramping, and general discomfort. Takinglong, deep breaths may help you relax during the procedure.
Why the Test is Performed
The barium enema is used to:
- Detect or screen forcolon cancer
- Diagnose or follow someone with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease
- Diagnose the cause of blood in stools, diarrhea, or very hard stools (constipation)
The barium enema test is used much less often than in the past. Colonoscopy is done more often now.
Normal Results
Barium should fill the colon evenly, showing normal bowel shape and position and no blockages.
What Abnormal Results Mean
Abnormal test results may be a sign of:
- Colitisdue to Crohn's disease
- Cancer in the colon or rectum
- Small growths that stick out of the lining of your colon, called polyps
- Small, bulging sacs or pouches of the inner lining of the intestine, called diverticulosis
- Twisted loop of the bowel (volvulus)
Other conditions under which the test may be performed:
- Blockage of the large intestine
- Hirschsprung's disease
- Sliding of one part of the intestine into another, calledintussusception
There is low radiation exposure. X-rays are monitored to provide the smallest amount of radiation needed to produce the image. Most experts feel that the risk is low compared with the benefits. Pregnant women and children are more sensitive to x-ray risks.
A rare butserious risk is a perforated colon.
It is normal for the stools to be white for a few days after this test. You should try to drink extra fluids for 2 to 4 days. Ask your doctor about a laxative if you develop hard stools.

Site for Alcohol's Action in the Brain Discovered
Why Some Tumors Don't Respond to Radiation and Chemotherapy
Tumor Suppressor Pulls Double Shift as Reprogramming Watchdog
Growth Factor Keeps Brain Development on Track
Nicotinic Receptor May Help Trigger Alzheimer's Disease
"Jumping Genes" Create Diversity in Human Brain Cells
Site for Alcohol's Action in the Brain Discovered
Alcohol's inebriating effects may be familiar to many, but the molecular details of its impact on brain activity remain a mystery. A new study by researchers at the Salk Institute provides a better understanding how alcohol alters the way brain cells work.
Their findings reveal an alcohol trigger site located physically within an ion channel protein; their results could lead to the development of novel treatments for alcoholism, drug addiction, and epilepsy. Paul Slesinger and his team now show that alcohols directly interact with a specific nook contained within a channel protein. This ion channel plays a key role in several brain functions associated with drugs of abuse and seizures.
Previous research by Slesinger and his group focused on the neural function of these ion channels, called GIRK channels. GIRK channels open up during periods of chemical communication between neurons and dampen the signal, creating the equivalent of a short circuit.
Having the location of a physical alcohol-binding site important for GIRK channel activation could point to new strategies for treating related brain diseases. Using this protein structure, it may be possible to develop a drug that antagonizes the actions of alcohol for the treatment of alcohol dependence.
Alternatively, "If we could find a novel drug that fits the alcohol-binding site and then activate GIRK channels, this would dampen overall neuronal excitability in the brain and perhaps provide a new tool for treating epilepsy," says Slesinger.
Why Some Tumors Don't Respond to Radiation and Chemotherapy
A tightly controlled system of checks and balances ensures that a powerful tumor suppressor called p53 keeps a tight lid on unchecked cell growth but doesn't wreak havoc in healthy cells. In their latest study, scientists at the Salk Institute suggest just how finely tuned the system is and how little it takes to tip the balance.
When unprovoked, at least two negative regulators—the related proteins Mdm2 and Mdmx—prevent p53 from unleashing its power to kill. But just slightly increasing the amount of available Mdmx, which grips p53 and renders it inactive, the Salk researchers discovered, made mice remarkably resistant to the harmful effects of radiation but very susceptible to the development of oncogene-induced lymphomas.
"Our experiments emphasize how subtle and precarious the balance is," says postdoctoral researcher and first author Yunyuan V. Wang. "A slight shift of balance and the mice survive the equivalent of Chernobyl but are in big trouble when an oncogene is activated."
Their findings could explain why some tumors don't respond to radiation or chemotherapy, and provide novel routes for the development of new anti-cancer therapies.
As a powerful tumor suppressor, p53 turns on genes that either halt cell division to allow time for repair of damaged DNA or, when all rescue attempts prove futile, to prevent cells with genetic defects from dividing, as this would fuel the development of cancer. Consequently, before any tumor cell can start proliferating willfully, it needs to escape from p53's iron fist.
"One way or another, p53 function is compromised in all cancers. Either p53 itself is mutated or there is a problem with one of the proteins that regulate p53's activity," says the study's leader Geoffrey M. Wahl, a professor in the Gene Expression Laboratory. "Our hope is that we can develop small molecule drugs that will activate p53 in those tumors where it is still functional but inactivated by one of its negative regulators."
Tumor suppressor pulls double shift as reprogramming watchdog
A collaborative study by researchers at the Salk Institute uncovered that the tumor suppressor p53, which made its name as "guardian of the genome," not only stops cells that could become cancerous in their tracks but also controls somatic cell reprogramming.
Although scientists have learned how to reprogram adult human cells such as skin cells into so-called induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), the reprogramming efficiency is still woefully low. The Salk study, published in the Aug. 9 advance online edition of Nature, gives new insight into why only a few cells out of many can be persuaded to turn back the clock.
"Although we have been able to reprogram specialized cells for a while now, there had been nothing known about the control mechanisms that prevent it from happening spontaneously in the body and why it has been so hard to change their fate in a Petri dish," says Juan-Carlos Izpisúa Belmonte, a professor in the Gene Expression Laboratory, who worked closely with Geoffrey M. Wahl, also a professor in the Gene Expression Laboratory.
Their findings bring iPSCs technology a step closer to fulfilling its promise as source of patient-specific stem cells but also force scientists to rethink the development of cancer.
"There's been a decade-old idea that cancer arises through the de-differentiation of fully committed and specialized cells but eventually it was discarded in favor of the currently fashionable cancer stem cell theory," says Wahl. "Now that we know that p53 prevents de-differentiation, I believe it is time to reconsider the possibility that reprogramming plays a role in the development of cancer since virtually all cancer cells lose p53 function in one way or another."
Growth Factor Keeps Brain Development on Track
Without Fgf10 (right), neuronal stem cells fail to differentiate on time. As a result, they keep multiplying and generate a bigger pool of radial glia (shown in red).
Salk Scientists report that FGF10, a member of the firbroblast growth factor (Ffg) family of morphogens, lets brain stem cells know when it's time to get to work, ensuring they hit their first developmental milestone at the right moment.
Their findings not only add new insights into brain development and a novel function for Fgfs, but also reveal a possible mechanism for the selective expansion of specific brain areas over the course of evolution, such as the greatly increased size of the frontal lobe in humans. During embryonic brain development, stem cells in charge of building the cortex—the largest brain structure and seat of most higher cognitive functions—pass through a series of tightly regulated stages: from omnipotent stem cell to cortical progenitors cells capable of producing neurons.
"The timing of each of these transitions has critical implications for brain development, since minor changes in the proportion of progenitors exhibiting one or the other division mode at early stages will result in substantial changes in the number of neurons and the size of the cortex," says Dennis O'Leary, a professor in the Molecular Neurobiology Laboratory, who led the study.
Early in corticogenesis, stem cell-like progenitor cells known as neuroepithelial cells under go symmetric cell division, producing two identical progenitors to expand the pool of neuroepithelial cells. Later on, they differentiate into more mature progenitor cells referred to as radial glia, which then divide asymmetrically to produce a pair of unlike daughter cells: one radial glia to maintain the pool of progenitor cells and a cortical neuron or a basal progenitor. The latter will migrate outward and then produce neurons to establish the superficial layers of the cortex.
But little is known about the mechanisms that mediate the critical transition period that bridges the early expansion phase of neuroepithelial cells and the later neurogenic phase, which produces all the neurons that will eventually form the six layers of the cortex.
"These findings demonstrate a direct mechanism employed during normal development to regulate brain size," says O'Leary. "These findings also have potential implications for how cortical areas have evolved. Selectively expanding the progenitor pool by Fgf10 regulation of the timing of radial glia differentiation could account for the selective expansion of the frontal cortex, which has been greatly expanded in humans and is thought to be important for evolving what are considered typically human traits."
Nicotinic Receptor May Help Trigger Alzheimer's Disease
For close to a decade pharmaceutical researchers have been in hot pursuit of compounds to activate a key nicotine receptor that plays a role in cognitive processes. Triggering it, they hope, might prevent or even reverse the devastation wrought by Alzheimer's disease.
A new study from the Salk Institute, however, suggests that when the receptor, alpha-7, encounters beta amyloid, the toxic protein found in the disease's hallmark plaques, the two may actually go rogue. In combination, alpha-7 and beta amyloid appear to exacerbate Alzheimer's symptoms, while eliminating alpha-7 seems to nullify beta amyloid's harmful effects.
These findings, reported recently in The Journal of Neuroscience, may shed new light on the processes leading to Alzheimer's and could have important implications for researchers seeking to combat the disease.
Intrigued by earlier studies showing that beta amyloid seemed particularly drawn to the alpha-7 nicotinic receptors, researchers in the lab of Stephen F. Heinemann, in the Salk Molecular Neurobiology Laboratory, sought to determine whether the alpha-7 receptors actually modulate the effects of beta amyloid in Alzheimer's disease.
Hypothesizing that the alpha-7 nicotinic receptors mediate beta amyloid effects in Alzheimer's disease, Heinemann's team crossed mice engineered to lack the gene for alpha-7 with a mouse model for Alzheimer's disease, which had been genetically engineered to overexpress amyloid precursor protein (APP), an antecedent to beta amyloid. They then put the offspring through a series of memory tests.
Surprisingly, those with both mutations—too much APP and no gene for alpha-7—performed as well as normal mice. The Alzheimer's mice, however, which had the alpha-7 gene and also overexpressed APP, did poorly on the tests. Pathology studies revealed the presence of comparable amounts of plaques in the brains of both types of mice, but in those lacking the alpha-7 gene, they appeared to have no effect. Similar disparities were evident in measurements of the synaptic function underlying learning and memory.
"Jumping Genes" Create Diversity in Human Brain Cells
Rather than sticking to a single DNA script, human brain cells harbor astonishing genomic variability, according to Salk scientists. The findings could help explain brain development and individuality, as well as lead to a better understanding of neurological disease.
The team, led by Fred H. Gage, a professor in the Salk's Laboratory of Genetics, found that human brain cells contain an unexpected number of socalled mobile elements—extraordinary pieces of DNA that insert extra copies of themselves throughout the genome using a "copy and paste" mechanism.
"This is a potential mechanism to create the neural diversity that makes each person unique," says Gage. "The brain has 100 billion neurons with 100 trillion connections, but mobile pieces of DNA could give individual neurons a slightly different capacity from each other."
In earlier work, Gage had already shown that mobile pieces of DNA known as LINE-1 elements (short for Long interspersed element 1) randomly add extra copies to the genome of mouse brain cells. But whether or not the same process, colloquially referred to as "jumping," held true for neurons in human brains had been a matter of some debate.
When postdoctoral researcher and first author Nicole Coufal measured matched samples (brain versus other body tissues) from numerous individuals, she found that some brain samples had as many as 100 extra copies per cell.
"This was proof that these elements really are jumping in neurons," explains Coufal. Strikingly, it also means that not all cells are created equal—humans are true chimeras since the DNA in their brain cells is different from the DNA in the rest of their cells.

The Disposable Batteries Charger
By Brian, the fisherman
from Kitchener, Ontario
I bought a similar product in the past and it didn't pan out. However, I kept my used batteries in case someone came a long with a product to re-charge disposable batteries. When I saw the one from Hammacher Schlemmer and since it has a life time gaurantee, I felt this time I have nothing to lose and I bought it. Hopefully it will give me many years of service and provide payback. So far it has re-charged several disposable batteries, and I am anxious to see how long the charge lasts.

The PCTC recommends ways to better prevent transnational crime and to detect and apprehend criminals operating across borders. A central database of national and international legislation underpins these recommendations. Activities are reinforced through training programmes delivered in cooperation with national government agencies, other countries and international organizations.
The PCTC is assisted by the Philippine's 22 national law enforcement agencies:
INTERPOL Manila
The National Central Bureau (NCB) for the Philippines is an inter-ministerial entity which is not part of the Philippine National Police but instead is directly attached to the Office of the President. As such it benefits from direct access to the services of all law enforcement agencies in the Philippines.
The NCB is referred to as "NALECC-SCILEC" (National Law Enforcement Coordinating Committee - Sub Committee on International Law Enforcement Cooperation).
INTERPOL Manila is an integral part of the PCTC. Its mission is to serve as the liaison office and main coordinating body for international police cooperation on behalf of all law enforcement agencies in the Philippines. Its main duties include:
- Monitoring and coordinating law enforcement activities relating to transnational crimes affecting the Philippines;
- Operating and maintaining an operations centre to serve as the focal point for international cooperation on transnational crime for all law enforcement agencies in the Philippines;
- Acting as a NALECC Sub Committee in the monitoring of crime and activities which threaten national security and the economy.
INTERPOL Manila works around the clock and uses English as its main working language.

Notable Facts
Pinotage is a hardy, rustic grape, with gamey and smoky mixing with wild berry
flavors. The styles of wine can differ, depending on the winemaker's choices
of fermentation temperature and oak. Almost always a deep, dark color, it can
be an easy-drinking wine with upfront wild berry flavors, or it can lean towards
smoky, musty undertones with firmer tannins. Both styles are quite good - particularly
paired with some tasty barbeque. Get to know the producer to find out which
style you prefer.

Original statement (Taken from /var/www/admin/profile.php, line 31):
$sql = "SELECT * FROM blog_users WHERE poster = '$username' AND password = '$password'";
Expected input (user: blogger, Password: password):
$sql = "SELECT * FROM blog_users WHERE poster = 'blogger' AND password = 'password'";
Injected input (user: blogger, Password: ' or 1=1-- -):
$sql = "SELECT * FROM blog_users WHERE poster = ' blogger' AND password = '' or 1=1-- -'";
In the MySQL statement the 'WHERE' clause needs two parts to equal true due to the 'AND' operator. The username is known and valid but the password is not. The reason why the injected input works is due to the 'OR' operator as this allows another value that will always be true, as 1 will always equal 1. Now the statement will return true, therefore logging in as blogger. The ending of the injected code, comments out any possible remaining queries in the original statement (as it turns out there isn't anything) plus there is no a need to fix the MySQL syntax.
To verify that the attacker managed to login without knowing the password, they quickly check the blog to see if the signature has been updated - which it has been. The attacker then wishes to take advantage of the blog's system of using files to store signatures, however, they need to know the location of where they are stored. By altering the hidden "fname" in the page source code to an incorrect path, forcing an error to be produced, they hope that the error message will contain sensitive information relating to the location. As fname is stored on the client's web page (not hidden when the server processes the page), the attacker is able to modify their local version which is sent back to the server. The attacker could use the firefox addon "firebug" to alter the source code on-the-fly, thus when the page is sent back, it would have the modified variable. However the attacker chooses to use "Tamper Data" to intercept the traffic to modify the data before it is sent back. The reason why the attacker went with Tamper Data is because it is already included with the default install of backtrack 5 r1 (The addon has just been disabled).
'Normal'Pentest monkey has created "php-reverse-shell" which allows for an interactive shell to spawn by using PHP commands. The attacker makes a copy of it, making sure the original version isn't edited. Due to the nature of the shell (as it is "reverse") this means communication comes back to the attacker, thus the shell needs to be able to locate the attacker, which is done so by updating the "IP" and "port" field.
Attacker (Firefox) ---> Target (Web server)
Attacker (Firefox) <--- Target (Web server)
Attacker (Firefox) ---> Target (Web server)
Attacker (Firefox) ---> Target (Web server)
Attacker (Firefox) <--- Target (Web server)
Attacker (Firefox) ---> Tamper Data ---> Target (Web server)
By using tamper data, when the attacker submits the page, they are now able to edit the data which is sent in the POST request and takes advantage of this by editing the hidden text field "fname" to have an additional forward slash. Slashes are used to indicate folders, now when the blog tries to use the path, there isn't a folder at the location, forcing an error. This produces a message informing the end user that the blog isn't able to access the file or folder (which is due to the modified request), along with detailed paths such as the file which failed to access the location as well as the location which failed. The attacker copies the failed location and amends the path to view the content which should have been requested. The attacker now knows the location of a writeable folder which they have access to. The attacker goes back and tries to see if they are able to execute PHP functions by a simple command to just print a message on the screen. Upon submission they alter the fname field to reflect the file format is now PHP. After which the attacker tries to view the new file, by doing so they discover that they are now able to write PHP functions and the target executes it.
Before the attacker views the new signature which would trigger the shell to be executed, the attacker needs to set up a listener, which will capture the request from the target with an interactive shell. The attacker uses "netcat" to be the handler as it is a 'swiss army knife' on the same port used in the shell. The attacker then requests the php shell signature to be displayed. The target then executes the PHP commands causing a shell to be sent back to the attacker. The end result being the attacker is now able to execute commands locally on the target machine using an interactive shell.
The attacker starts checking the local user's home folder, and discovers a C source code, for a program called 'buffd'. After checking to see the running processes, the attacker notices not only the program is being executed, but also by the super-user, root. The current user which the attacker is logged in as (www-data), doesn't have permission to view the file. However the attacker checks the results from DirBuster and notices that the web server also has a file with the same name, and downloads that copy instead. Upon viewing the contents of the source code, the attacker notices that the program uses port "7777". The attacker checks locally on the target to see if TCP port 7777 is open, which it is, but is unable to confirm if the PID matches to the running process. At the same time looking at the source code, the attacker notices a vulnerable function - which is called "vulnerable". Editor's note: An explanation of the vulnerable code is below:
void vulnerable(char *net_buffer)
char local_buffer[120];
strcpy(local_buffer, net_buffer);
The function is vulnerable because of the buffer 'local_buffer', has been set to '120', therefore when the argument 'net_buffer', is copied into the buffer anything greater than 120 will 'overflow' it. The extra bytes will run past the buffer and overwrite the space set aside for the frame pointer, return address etc. This causes the process stack to be corrupt which potentially alters the program's execution path as the functions return address is the address of the next instruction in memory, which is immediately executed after the function returns. When using 'strcpy' it doesn't check the bounds, so the solution would be to use 'strncpy'.
The attacker checks the file type of the potential binary version of buffd, as well as the folder in which it is being executed from. The attacker notices the binary was compiled on Linux 2.6.8 as well as having a 'core' file in the same folder. The attacker knows that a core file is a 'memory dump' and is produced when a program crashes and is able to extract key information about how and why the program crashed (which is useful to know when creating an exploit as the attacker needs to understand what is happening).

By George Krikorian, Dana Medical Library
There's more than you think going on behind the scenes at Dana.
Each month, the ongoing erratas project brings in a whole new set of retractions and corrections that need to be made to our print journals shelved in the stacks. Usually nothing remarkable happens, but over the last few months there have been well over 30 retraction notices put out for articles published by Dr. Yoshitaka Fuji. His work on postoperative nausea and vomiting appeared primarily in the journal Anesthesia & Analgesia, and the recent revelation of his fraudulent work is certain to have a strong impact.
In their March 2013 issue Anesthesia & Analgesia published an editorial on the matter that's worth reading, regardless of your field of study. It's always interesting to see how the work of one can affect so many.
You can access the editorial here.

Topic: How Does Dad Make the Decision to Stop Treatment?
As I mentioned on the Introductions Board, I'm new to these forums. Everyone has been so supportive and helpful.
To review, my my 85-year-old dad was diagnosed with CC about five years ago. With radiation and a surgical resect, he was able to overcome it and live a normal life. In January of this year, it came back with a vengeance, and at stage iv, has mets to liver and spleen, with abdominal skin lesions. He underwent a few rounds of chemo, which stalled the growth for a little while, but is no longer of any help. In return, he has become very ill, was hospitalized with pneumonia, is on oxygen, having breathing difficulty, very anemic, has weekly blood transfusions, and needed to have fluid drained from his lungs. The liver is no longer functioning well and he is accumulating fluid. He has weakened to the point where he has no strength whatsover to get himself out of bed or even turn or sit up. PT and OT have been unsuccessful. The good news is he still has a good appetite, and is not in any pain. He has reached the point where they will be discharging him to a nursing home within the next few days, and hospice will become involved.
He now needs to make a decision to either continue with weekly blood transfusions, fluid draining, and any other treatment issues that arise, which will require him to be transported by ambulance back and forth to the hospital, or, in the alternative, to let the disease run its course naturally as comfortable as possible. If he ends treatment, the doctors give him "weeks". If he continues with blood transfusions and fluid draining, he may gain a little more time. Either way, the cancer will take him at some point. He is having an incredible amount of difficulty making this decision. We, his family, want to help him in his decision but don't want to sway him one way or another with our own personal beliefs (i.e. to let the disease run its course). We will support him no matter what he decides.
His mindset changes daily, like the wind. One day he'll say I've had enough, the next he says he's not going without a fight.
I was hoping we'd have some kind of plan in mind when he's discharged from the hospital, but it looks like we'll have to take it a day at a time.
I am consumed with this, and I'm mentally exhausted. Any thoughts on this difficult subject would be greatly appreciated.

Offering premium leakage protection and stretchy, comfortable side panels, Seventh Generation Free & Clear Training Pants are a great choice for your growing toddler. What changed in your transition to Free & Clear Training Pants?Free & Clear Training Pants now have a redesigned, lighter-weight core that is more efficient at absorption and uses less wood pulp. They still offer the same premium absorbency, comfort and leakage protection for your child. Do Seventh Generation Diapers or Training Pants have cartoon characters on them?To celebrate their partnership with Dr. Seuss's The Lorax (only in theaters 2012), Free & Clear diapers, overnight diapers and training pants will feature limited edition prints featuring your favorite characters from the film. Why doesn't Seventh Generation use chlorine in the processing of its Diapers, Training Pants and Overnights?Seventh Generation believes in processing without the use of chemicals containing chlorine because chlorine processing can produce chlorinate hydrocarbons, which have a negative impact on the environment. By choosing not to process with chlorine, they help reduce the overall amount of chlorinated toxins released into the environment, and in that way, Seventh Generation is helping to make the world a healthier place for you and your family. If every household with babies in the United States with babies replaced just one package of diapers or training pants processed with chemicals containing chlorine with Seventh Generation chlorine-free diapers, that would prevent 2800 lbs. of chlorinated hydrocarbons from polluting the air, lakes and streams. Your choice of Seventh Generation chlorine free products can help reduce the amount of chlorinated toxins released into the environment and help make the world a healthier place for your family and generations to come. Seventh Generation discloses all ingredents. You have the right to know what makes these diapers safe for the environment and your baby, as well as effective at keeping your baby dry and comfortable. They include a list of ingredients on all their baby care products.

One of the country's first self-declared "socially responsible" companies, Seventh Generation is a business that operates according to a new and different set of principles and values that in many ways are a marked departure from those long considered "traditional." Its business practice is focused on offering people avenues to express their idealism, passion, and commitment to causes larger than themselves and every point along its supply chain, from suppliers and partners to shareholders, customers, and their own staff. The company derives its name from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the mext seven generations." Everytime you use a Seventh Generation product, you are making a difference by saving natural resources, reducing pollution, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations.

Inspire Conscious Consumption: Seventh Generation's focus is to inspire thoughtful consideration of each purchase-from the immediate impact of the products you buy (Is it safe? Is it gentle on the earth? Does it work?), to the broader impact throughout their lifecycle. Create a Just and Equitable World: Seventh Generation is committed to making sure that everyone their company interacts with-from the farmers who grow their lavender to the customers who use these products-are treated fairly and with respect. Seventh Generation Operating Principles Systems Thinking: As suggested by The Great Law of the Iroquois, Seventh Generation strives to act with the knowledge that their business belongs to a larger system in which everything is interconnected, and that everything they do affects everything else. Radical Transparency: Seventh Generation believe that the best way to ensure that they live up to their aspirations is to be completely transparent about their business and product practices.

Influence Beyond Their Size: Seventh Generation is determined to inspire others through innovation, education, and interaction. They proudly donate 10% of their profits to support organizations that work for positive change.

Pregnancy is a time in a woman's life when it is important for her to be aware of her own health, and the health of her developing baby. Knowing what to expect, what to eat, and when to see a doctor will contribute to the well being of both the mother and the baby. It is also just as important to know what to stay away from while you are pregnant.
Time of Appearance
Other Possible Causes
|delay of menstruation
|entire pregnancy
|excessive weight gain or loss, fatigue, hormonal problems, tension, stress, going off the birth control pill or breast feeding
|nausea and vomiting
|2-8 weeks after conception
|food poisoning, stress and variety of other stomach disorders
|tender or swollen breasts
|1-2 weeks after conception
|hormone imbalance, birth control pills, impending menstruation
|feeling exhausted or "sleepy"
|1-6 weeks after conception
|stress, fatigue, depression and other physical and mental strains; can also be the common cold or flu
|during entire pregnancy
|a variety of back problems or physical or mental strains
|frequent headaches
|sometimes during entire pregnancy
|dehydration, caffeine withdrawal, eye strain and other ailments
|food cravings
|entire pregnancy
|poor diet, stress, depression and impending menstruation
|darkening of areola (breast nipple)
|first signs 1-14 weeks after conception and throughout pregnancy
|hormonal imbalance
|fetal movements
|16-22 weeks after conception
|gas, lower gastrointestinal bowel contractions
|frequent urination
|6-8 weeks after conception
|diabetes, urinary tract infection, taking excessive diuretics causing urination
|fetal heart beat
|10-20 weeks and then throughout pregnancy – early detection using sensitive microphones, (Doppler)
As the baby and the uterus expand, it causes the muscles to stretch, creating aching in the lower abdomen. In addition to that, the weight of the growing uterus also puts a strain on the back.
Higher amounts of estrogen and progesterone increase breast size. The area around the nipple darkens and may even spread. A network of blue veins is appears across your chest. These areas return to normal after delivery or nursing.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Wear a good, supportive bra throughout your pregnancy to prevent sagging, even at night.
- Buy any nursing bras (if you're planning to breast feed) late in pregnancy.
Constipation is common in pregnancy, mostly because the high levels of hormones in the body are causing the bowel muscles to contract more slowly, and because the uterus is putting pressure on the bowels.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Eat generous amounts of fiber, like bran cereal, fruits and whole grain breads.
- Drink six to eight glasses of water a day.
- Exercise regularly, such as walking daily.
Fatigue during pregnancy is caused by the increasing levels of hormones, and by the huge amount of energy needed to prepare the body to support the baby. Many women find that once their bodies have adjusted to the demands of pregnancy, and the baby's placenta is complete (about 4 months), they have a little more energy. Others continue to feel tired throughout their pregnancy, especially if they are working, or have other child care responsibilities. Most notice that fatigue returns in the last trimester.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Get as much rest as possible as soon as you find out you're pregnant. Going to bed earlier is a good idea.
- Squeeze in a short nap during the day. If you're working, relax for a few minutes after lunch.
- Exercise regularly.
- Accept friends' and family members' offers to help.
Frequent urination during pregnancy is primarily caused by the expanding uterus pressing on your bladder.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- To help empty your bladder completely, lean forward as far as possible when you urinate.
- If you're waking up often during the night, reduce fluids before bedtime. Increased frequency of urination should not be accompanied by urgency, pain or burning. That could mean a urinary tract infection, and should be reported to you health care provider right away.
Heartburn is caused when the extra hormones relax the smooth muscle tissue, including the muscle that separates your esophagus from your stomach. Food and digestive juices from your stomach can travel back up into the esophagus. The stomach acids can irritate the lining of your esophagus and cause the "burning" feeling of heartburn.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Try not to gain too much weight.
- Eat several smaller meals rather than two or three large meals.
- Avoid the foods that aggravate your heartburn, like greasy or highly seasoned foods, processed foods, chocolate and even carbonated drinks.
- Sleep with your head slightly elevated.
Hemorrhoids are painful, swollen veins around the rectum that can itch and bleed. They can be aggravated by constipation, or by the weight of the uterus and baby. The best way to avoid hemorrhoids is to keep bowel movements as regular as possible.
- Eat plenty of fiber, drink plenty of water and get plenty of rest and exercise.
- Avoid standing or sitting for long periods of time.
- Take frequent warm baths.
- Talk with your health care provider if your hemorrhoids bleed.
Morning sickness can occur at any point of the day, into the afternoon or the evening. For many women it usually disappears by the third month. All pregnant women experience some type of morning sickness, from a moment of nausea, to vomiting all day long. This may be caused from changing hormone levels, stress and even fatigue.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Eat a good diet, with plenty of fluids and eat often, before you're hungry.
- Stay away from foods whose smells (or mere thought of eating) make you feel nauseous.
- Try eating a little something (crackers, for instance) before you get out of bed in the morning. You may even want to try a snack before you go to bed.
- Take prenatal vitamin to make up for vitamins lost during vomiting.
- Get plenty of rest and eliminate as much stress as possible.
As hormones increase during pregnancy, this causes the body to secrete more oils that that can cause breakouts. In the middle of pregnancy, the extra blood flow to the skin can cause tiny blood vessels near the surface of the skin to swell, resulting in spidery looking red lines on the face, neck, arms and chest. These usually fade after pregnancy. Some women also develop dark blotches on their cheeks, forehead or nose. These blotches, called melasma or mask of pregnancy, also fade after pregnancy.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Hide them with a makeup foundation or cover-up cream.
- Avoid sunbathing, which can worsen them, or use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15.
- Eat healthy foods, drink plenty of fluids and wash you face several times a day.
A thin, whitish discharge is normal during pregnancy. These secretions begin early in pregnancy, continue to increase, and can cause minor itching.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Wash daily with water.
- Wear panty liners (tampons are not recommended) or cotton lined underwear.
These swollen veins that appear in your legs are the result of decreased blood circulation, heredity, weight gain, or the weight of the baby in the pelvic area. These veins may be painful, or just achy.
How to avoid / relieve it:
- Wear support hose to increase your circulation.
- Change your position if you're sitting for long periods of time.
- Keep your feet elevated while you're sitting.
- Keep your legs (and ankles) uncrossed.
- Rotate your feet at the ankles, or contracting your leg muscles, if you must stand for long periods.
- Get off your feet for about 15 minutes every two hours.
- Exercise regularly.

|Biography of Saul Terry
"We're tired of just surviving. We want to live!"
Chief Saul Terry is a citizen of the Stl'atl'imx Nation (Lillooet Tribe) and a member of the Xwisten Community (Bridge River Band) near Lillooet, B.C. He was born in Lillooet on January 4, 1942.
Chief Terry's primary and junior secondary education was obtained at the Kamloops Residential School. He graduated from St. Ann's Academy, Kamloops, in 1962.
Chief Terry graduated with honours in sculpture from the Vancouver School of Art (now Emily Carr College of Art & Design) in 1968. At the invitation of Philip Paul, he went to Victoria in 1969-70 to become the first aboriginal art instructor hired by the Institute of Adult Studies (now Camosun College). At the time, Philip Paul was organizing the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs and George Manuel was beginning his work organizing the National Indian Brotherhood (forerunner of the Assembly of First Nations). Saul spent many evenings discussing the emergent Indian rights movement with Philip and George. In late 1970, Saul moved back home to Lillooet to work in the field of education for his people.
Saul was elected Chief of the Bridge River band in 1973 and remained the elected chief until 1989. He was asked to run again for Chief and was elected in 1992, serving to the present. During his first tenure as Chief, Saul was active in the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, heading up UBCIC's fisheries portfolio. He was elected Vice President of the Union under George Manuel's presidency and was also elected Chairman of the Central Interior Tribal Councils (1978-1983)
Chief Terry was first elected President of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs in 1983. Since then, he has been re-elected to six consecutive terms of office and is the Union's longest-serving chief executive. During his years in office, Saul has continued to sculpt when time permits but most of his energies have focused on developing tools for First Nations to carve out for themselves a new future of decolonization and self-determination.

THE YEAR (BUT NOT THE WORLD) IS COMING TO AN END!: We've survived the end of the world, only to face a year with the unluckiest number of them all in it.
One good thing you can say about 2013 is it doesn't have a 13-13-13 in it, otherwise we'd be cranking up the Doomsday machinery again. All of these post-nonapocalyptic days are just gravy now.
The way to tackle the impending '13 is to do what's always worked in the past: Go to parties, drink champagne, dance in the street, make a racket and hit the hay early in the first day of the new year, just hours before the Rose Parade begins on an invariably crisp and clear morning with the snow shining on snow-capped peaks luring another mass migration of residents of the Lesser States to Southern California.
The major bashes on Monday will be in and around the downtown area, especially on Long Beach's historic main street, Pine Avenue, from South Pine on the seaward side of Ocean Boulevard, to the main drag up top on North Pine.
Downtown Long Beach Associates is sponsoring and producing the bi-coastal New Year's Eve in Downtown, with South Pine working on East Coast time, while North Pine sticks to West Coast's famed Pacific Standard time. Got it? South is East, North is West. You might want to bring a compass.
South Pine's admission-free fest is billed as a "family- friendly" waterfront celebration, with live music kicking in at 5 p.m., with the great local rock band Paperplanes. The Phat Cat Swinger swing band takes the stage at 7:30 p.m. to ring in the (East Coast) new year at 9 p.m. As the clock strikes midnight (at 9 p.m.), there'll be a 10-minute fireworks display from the lighthouse peninsula.
If you want to stay on the East (South) coast, stick around at Gladstone's and catch the cop-rockers Blue Steel, playing until 10:30 p.m.
The North Pine New Year's Eve party starts at 6 p.m. and goes till 2 a.m. on Pine at Broadway. The mega-fest includes three stages of live entertainment, including the '80s-style new-wavers, the Spazmatics, the hometown funk masters 00 Soul and the AC/DC tribute band TNT.
Restaurants in the party zone are offering various specials - visit www.dlba.org - but you can stay on the street all night, with seven outdoor bars serving up spirits throughout the evening.
Advance tickets are $15 or, for $32, you get a package that includes two tickets plus VIP parking. They're on sale online at www.dlba.org through 2 p.m. Sunday and can be picked up today at the DLBA office at 100 W. Broadway from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., or on Monday at the ticket booth on Pine and First Street from 2-6 p.m.
Tickets at the gate are $20.
BLUE YEAR'S EVE: A Blue Christmas is no fun, but a Blue New Year's is a blast. Just a block over from Pine (and five or six blocks northward), the blues will be rocking the MadHaus concert hall at 624 Pacific Ave. on New Year's Eve with a Blue Year's Eve Blowout.
The legendary James Harman will be headlining a strong undercard that includes Johnny Mastro & Mama's Boys and the jam-masters the Lubricators, with plenty of guests sitting in throughout the evening.
The $25 admission covers all that music, plus appetizers, party favors and a champagne toast. And it benefits the Cultural Alliance of Long Beach.
FRIDAY PLAYLIST: Good news! We've got a bad-luck playlist for you today. Play these songs nonstop throughout the coming year to ward off misfortune:
1. "Thirteen," Big Star
2. "13," Brian Jonestown Massacre
3. "No. 13 Baby," Pixies
4. "13 x Forever," Garbage
5. "13 Steps Lead Down," Elvis Costello
6. "Lucky 13," Smashing Pumpkins
7. "Room 13," Black Flag
8. "The 13th," The Cure
9. "13," Megadeth
10. "You're Gonna Miss Me," The 13th Floor Elevators

The Early Bird Catches the Book!
November 7th, 2012
My father has the patience of a small child. Not until I could drive myself did I go to an amusement park, a sit down restaurant or the funeral of a non-immediate relative. All involved waiting–waiting in line, waiting to be served or waiting for just the right emotional moment. Waiting meant lost sleep and for a man who worked long hours, sacrifices had to be made. Great-aunt Cora would just have to understand.
My queue coping skills permanently stunted, but unwilling to forgo Hersheypark for the rest of my life, I took a different approach. If waiting was inevitable, then being early provided compensation. First at the table meant spearing the biggest pork chop before my three siblings. Setting the alarm a half hour early equaled hot water in the shower at college. To this day, I enthusiastically volunteer to set the table at Easter for my mom, just so I can be first to snag a deviled egg or two.
Now Cecil County Public Library is jumping on my early arrival bandwagon. In this case, the early bird gets to place a hold on adult books before they even arrive. Titles that are on-order will begin showing up as "on order" in the catalog starting this week, some months in advance of their appearance at any store. Place a hold on it right then and there to save your place in line.
Some titles I'll be placing an early hold on include:
The Cassandra Project by Jack McDevitt
What if Armstrong was actually the fifth man to walk on the Moon? Did two early test flights do more than merely orbit? This book is a conspiracy theorist's dream come true.
Habits of the House by Fay Weldon
The only way for the Earl of Dilberne to clear his debts in 1899 Britain is to marry off his children to rich Americans. The perfect solution for those needing a Downton Abbey fix.
City of Dark Magic by Magnus Flyte
Enchanted manuscripts, time travel and a dash of romance envelope the search for Beethoven's "Immortal Beloved". This read echoes Harkness' Shadow of Night.
Notorious Nineteen by Janet Evanovich
When Stephanie just can't seem to blend in at a recently embezzled assisted living facility, it's up to Grandma Mazur to investigate.
Get some tips on placing on order holds with these helpful directions that include pictures.
What upcoming titles are you waiting impatiently for?

Deputies investigating attempted armed robbery in Hollywood
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Charleston County Sheriff's Office deputies are investigating an attempted armed robbery of the Dollar General Store in Hollywood.
According to the CCSO, deputies were called to the Dollar General on Highway 17, at around 8:45 on Wednesday night.
Deputies say that employees were closing up for the night when the suspect tried to enter the front door. The door was already locked and employees refused to open it, even after the suspect attempted to force them to let him in.
The employees called 911 and the suspect left the scene on foot.
No one was hurt. The Sheriff's Office K9 Unit responded to the scene, but was unable to track the suspect.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crimestoppers at 843-554-1111.

MSNBC anchor to deliver USC's Buchheit lecture
Contact: Peggy Binette 803-777-5400 firstname.lastname@example.com
MSNBC anchor Craig Melvin will return to his hometown to deliver the annual Buchheit Family Lecture Wednesday, Oct. 5, at the University of South Carolina.
Titled "From 'Craig Cam' to MSNBC: How Technology and Viewer Tastes are Changing Broadcast News," the lecture is set for 7 p.m. in Gambrell Hall auditorium. It is free and open to the public.
Melvin, 32, a former anchor at WIS-TV, gained recognition for his news reports on some of the Midlands' most pressing issues, including homelessness and gang violence, and earned high praise for his coverage of a dangerous prison hostage standoff. He earned an Emmy Award for his reporting and was named "best anchor" by the S.C. Broadcasters Association.
In 2008 he joined WRC-TV, NBC's owned-and-operated station in Washington, D.C., as an anchor and reporter. Since July, he has been an anchor for MSNBC in July and a news correspondent for NBC News. He is a graduate of Columbia High School and Wofford College.
The Buchheit Family Lecture Series was created in 2000 to honor the late Phil Buchheit, the former president and chairman of Mid-South Management Co. and the former publisher of the Spartanburg Herald-Journal. The series is sponsored by the Buchheit Family Endowment, which provides undergraduate scholarships and graduate and doctoral fellowships to students in USC's School of Journalism and Mass Communications.
The Buchheit Family Lecture Series is a highlight of I-Comm Week, an annual observance by the College of Mass Communications and Information Studies that features lectures and special events for students, faculty and staff and alumni of the college.
For more information on the Buchheit Lecture, contact Elaine Taylor at 803-777-7118 or email@example.com.
