Female temptation: carbon is the key
The C-Line Divine is not only tempting because of its characteristics. It stands out from every norm thanks to its looks. Its strikingly subtle design allows the high-grade carbon to come to the fore which, in addition to its high-tech role, also makes the ski a highlight in terms of appearance.

Miley Cyrus' Stalker Denied Bond Reduction
Miley Cyrus' stalker isn't going anywhere for a while.
Mark McLeod, who is currently in jail for allegedly stalking Miley Cyrus during her film shoot for the Last Song in Tybee Island, Georgia, was denied a request to lower his $55,000 bond.
At the hearing on Tuesday, Judge Steven Scheer called the 53-year-old a definite threat to the 16-year-old starlet, according to the Savannah Morning News.
"I can't deny him bond," the judge said, "but if I could I would, because I do feel he's a danger."
Although the judge is aware that Miley's people "can afford the best protection money can buy," the judge said that comments McLeod made after his arrest are seriously disturbing.
A security officer for Miley testified that McLeod said he "was going to be coming back to Tybee Island and finishing things."
Scheer also mentioned a Sept. 9, 2003, guilty plea by McLeod on a charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, portions of which he called troubling. "It shows me that something's not altogether right there," Scheer said.

Claire Groom and Matt Bowler allegedly pretended to be control centre staff and ordered colleagues from the Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Ambulance Service to attend a "major incident".
The victims believed the call was genuine and set off to the scene with their blue lights flashing.
They only realised they had been tricked when they called into the real control room in Luton to get further instructions.
An inquiry was launched and Ms Groom and technician Mr Bowler, both in their thirties, were suspended.

Police are investigating after a 24-year-old man sustained facial injuries during an assault at a Fortitude Valley nightclub this morning.
Preliminary information indicates the man was sitting on a chair in a Brunswick Street club around 2.35am when a man approached him and punched him once in the face.
The force of the blow broke a glass the offender had been carrying in his fist resulting in the victim sustaining a laceration to his face and eye.
The 24-year-old man from Beenleigh was transported to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital for treatment.
The offender, who is described as Caucasian, approximately 180cms tall with a slim build and aged in his 20s, fled the scene.
He was wearing a dark coloured baseball cap, black short sleeved shirt and dark coloured cargo style shorts.

To celebrate the "International Day of the Girl Child" on October 11, we at AWEPA would like to highlight our efforts to support local communities in West Africa to abandon Female Genital Mutilation and Cutting (FGM/C), a violation of the human rights of girls and women. According to the World Health Organisation, about 140 million girls and women worldwide are currently living with the consequences of FGM, including an estimated 101 million in Africa. A recent UNICEF report (July 2013) on this issue states that more than 125 million girls and women have been subjected to FGM/C in 29 countries in Africa and the Middles East, and 30 million girls are at risk of being cut within the next decade.
As awareness of the consequences of FGM/C spreads, women should become more active in campaigning for their rights. Endorsing this global movement, AWEPA advocates for greater awareness of this issue in both Africa and Europe, as FGM/C is not yet adequately addressed in African and in European parliaments. AWEPA works in close cooperation with African MPs to sensitise communities, and to legislate for and implement an accelerated abandonment of FGM/C. Simultaneously, AWEPA cooperates with European parliamentarians, to create laws that aim to put an end to the practice in Europe, and to keep the issue of FGM/C high on the European political agenda.
In 2013, AWEPA worked in partnership with UNFPA and UNICEF on their joint programme "Female Genital Mutilation: Accelerating Change." The following activities were implemented:
- International Day of Zero Tolerance to Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting – February 6. As part of an international conference on Ending FGM/C in The Netherlands and abroad, AWEPA observed this day. The event was organised by Platform 6/2 and Pharos in Leiden, The Netherlands.
- Workshop in Saly (Dakar), Senegal – March 15-19. Senegalese MPs met in Saly in a workshop on the role of parliamentarians in the abandonment of female genital mutilation / cutting (FGM/C), followed by a sensitisation activity in the Kolda region.
- Parliamentary seminar on female empowerment in Parliaments and Parties in Africa in Vienna – July 11. AWEPA contributed to the seminar with a presentation on the role of parliamentarians in ending FGM/C. The AWEPA publication "Guidelines for Parliamentarians – Abandoning Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting" was unveiled and presented by National Council President Hon. Barbara Prammer (Austria).
- Awareness-raising workshop in Senegal – September 20. Thirty-five Parliamentarians representatives of the seven regions with highest prevalence of FGM/C (namely Sédhiou, Kolda, Tambacounda, Kédougou, Louga, Saint-Louis and Matam), participated in a workshop in Dakar to increase the role of parliamentarians in accelerating the abandonment of FGM/C. By the end of 2013, Senegalese parliamentarians will also participate in a number of decentralised activities in which they will assess the perception of the practice among their constituents, their level of knowledge about its legal and medical consequences, and finally the people's expectations from the MPs to help end the practice.
- Ending Female Genital Mutilation / Cutting: A Progress Update in the UK – October 15. Closed door meeting at the UK House of Commons with Lynne Featherstone MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for International Development and Dr. Jeff Balch, Director of Research and Evaluation of AWEPA.
- International Conference on FGM/C in Italy – October 21-25. Organised by UNFPA. The conference aims to shed light on the role of European and African parliamentarians in accelerating the abandonment of FGM/C. The conference aims to consolidate global political commitment, galvanise national action, and plan specific strategies to build a broad-based movement to end female genital mutilation/cutting and related discriminatory practices in the next generation, in accordance with 2012 GA Resolution 67/146 on Intensifying global efforts for the elimination of female genital mutilations.
- Information and sensitisation workshop in Burkina Faso – November
Besides these activities, AWEPA has produced a book in cooperation with Pan-African Parliament (PAP) "Guidelines for Parliamentarians on the abandonment of FGM/C". To read more about AWEPA's work in this field, please click here.

The same problem occurred with Pagesheet from the Paginator transformer. I've made both Logicsheet and Pagesheet implement Serializable. Alternatively we could let the JCSStore implementation check whether the object to store implements Serializable and if not wrap the object in a Serializable wrapper (at the cost of some performance).

What a cruise it was on the MSC Orchestra!: MSC Orchestra Cruise Review by TNGALOHA
Overall Member Rating
What a cruise it was on the MSC Orchestra!
Destination: Western Caribbean
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
We then proceeded to the Buffet for lunch. There was no line at the buffet so we got right in and out. The food was very good and there was a large selection of cold cuts and 3 different cheeses with many More hot items. The salad bar was scarce to our standards but I am a big salad and veggie eater so I noticed that more. My husband liked the hot foods that were there more. Dinner was at 5:45 and we were in the Villa Borghese for dinner. The food was excellent but the service was very slow. We had 2 table mates that were totally horrible tho. Everytime the gentlemen would speak he would yell at the top of his lungs and was very rude (downright mean) to his wife and very disrespectful to women in general. So much so that the 3 tables around us kept looking over and shooting him a dirty look. We stayed at that table 2 nights and on the second night my husband talked to the head Maitre'd and we were given a different table, #583, with Buda and his backup as our waitstaff. The service from then on was absolutely excellent at night. We did eat breakfast and lunch in the dining room most of the time but service was pretty much hit and miss on those meals, but the food was absolutely excellent at all times. The night they offered Filet Mignon I was very surprised. I ordered it very rare and they asked if I wanted it tar-tar and I said no only cooked for a couple of min. on each side. It came to me perfect. Mind you we had other people at our table with well done steaks and all of the food came at the same time and all was hot and perfectly cooked.. The filet didn't even need to be chewed it MELTED in your mouth it was so good. Their cheesecakes are as the saying goes "To die for" they are so decadent and delicious. Our dealings with the reception center and the accounting center were simple questions and were answered with a smile and very courteous.
The only problem we had with getting off the ship was the day we were tendered into Cozumel. We had tender ticket #1 and we were at breakfast when they called #1 so we missed our tender time. We thought we would just go off with the rest of the people when we could so we got stuck in a long line but were off the ship within 20 min. There was a lot of complaining by several people and 1 man in particular who had 4 kids with him. He was ramming people with his stroller and trying to get everyone out of his way and yelling the whole time. But in all honesty when we say him in Cozumel he was acting the same way, so maybe that is just how he is. The disembarkment at Grand Cayman was very easy as there was no line and we went right off the ship. Our favorite port was Cayo Laventado as the beach was absolutely beautiful and very easy access from the dock to the beach. We didn't use any of the excursions offered by the ship as we like to explore on our own a lot. The 3 night shows that we attended were fabulous. The pianist was absolutely the best i have ever seen. We are not smokers so we did notice that in the public areas there was no smoke smell except in the casino and a couple of areas on the pool deck.
Our disembarkment from the ship was a breeze, we had Lilac #2 tags and we waited in the Amber lounge till they called us. We pretty much just walked right off, got our luggage and went thru customs. From the time they called our tag color to the time we were at the curb waiting on the car rental bus was about 15 min. Our longest wait was for the car rental bus. When it comes to our cruise we totally enjoyed it and would recommend it highly to others and already have and yes we will cruise with MSC again. Less

Italian Sun-Dried Tomato, Provolone and Pesto Torte
Recipe by DanielsWife
My mother-in-law recently served this at our baby shower. It was a tremendous hit! Delicious flavors meld together to create a rich and creamy indulgence. Serve with toasted baguette, crackers, veggies, or whatever else you please. This looks so pretty on a serving plate - your guests won't want to touch it. But they'll be glad when they do - delish! Note: cooking time is chill time.
Top Review by Margie99
This was good stuff. It was easy but made a pretty presentation. It looked like I had spent hours on it. I used a homemade spinach pesto and made it in a bowl. I think next time I would like to make it in a loaf pan for a bit more consistency. I was also thinking about adding some italian seasoning to the cream cheese. Made this for the Spring 2010 PAC, Yum.

1. DRM is a big issue. Trying to play liberty city stories on PC was a mess. I bought it on steam, then it asks me to create a rockstar account, then I had to sign in with a windows live account (steam, rockstar, windows live... three accounts just to play one game).
While I understand and agree that it's frustrating, it's one game; and a notoriously mishandled port at that, that's since been fixed.
EA and Ubi, yeah you need an account, but I'm also spammed with messages about creating an account on consoles, my games slower to load because it's attempting to log into a server, or whatever dumb crap they backload it with; and if I want to play multiplayer I'm forced to sign up. They want to push their service on everyone. That's just who they are. It has nothing to do with PC gaming. If it bothers you, you shouldn't be supporting either company.
Battle.net is an entirely different beast compared to Steam, Origin, or Uplay.
With other developers it isn't so bad. Most are using Steam, abandoning DRM altogether, or in some cases leaving the choice up to the consumer(Witcher 2). You get a GFWL game every now and then, but it's being ignored for the most part.
They're learning to go about using DRM in better ways, or just not using it at all, and giving consumers better reasons to purchice the game. That's why I said it isn't even that big of an issue anymore. Could they do better? Of course, but we're past what seems to be the worst part of it. Even Ubisoft abandoned their always online garbage.
2. I don't understand your point. If I buy a game on PC, it has to be brand new, and I can only use it on my system (some exceptions like the witcher 2). If I buy a game on a console, I can do whatever I want with it.
1. My point was the whole "ownership" argument is crap. Maybe I mistook your point, sorry. Every time I see this conversation you have a person who will argue that gamers who download games don't actually own them; completely missing the fact that despite owning a physical copy, they are in the same boat as far as owning game goes.
2. You don't have to buy a PC game new. However, with the way PC games are constantly on sale there's no reason not to.
3. I can load up my Steam, GoG, Amazon etc. accounts anywhere I want and install games. I've not had an issue yet. Not saying it doesn't happen though.

"Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right." -Henry Ford
Case and CPU (eg. 3570k) is like 300 dollars give or take 50 bucks depending on your case.
You don't need a 3570k. You don't need a GTX 680. You don't need 32 GBs of ram. There's always something bigger and better out there, if not actively available then coming soon on the horizon. You'll do just fine without it though.
1. DRM is a big issue. Trying to play liberty city stories on PC was a mess. I bought it on steam, then it asks me to create a rockstar account, then I had to sign in with a windows live account (steam, rockstar, windows live... three accounts just to play one game).
What he said though was that it's become less an issue which does seem to be the trend. Ubisoft abandoned their always-on drm scheme. Steamworks has pretty much become the standard these days.
Diablo 3 might stand out as an odd outlier but it's a Blizzard title, people will tolerate abuse from them for some reason.

it's actually quite funny because he's a big fan of xbox 360/microsoft whilst at the same time being completely ignorant of what they're actually trying to do to PC gaming... and off he goes on a rant that he had to go through a painful process of being able to play GTA4 which is a game associated with GFWL(the rockstar live account is a skippable process).
tbh it's plain ignorance that will be the death of this industry.
If console gaming is so cheap then why do I have to spend $600~ in order to play Super Mario Galaxy, Uncharted 3 and Halo 3?
If PS3 game prices plummet, Sony will win that generation, easily.
Games don't cost as much on PC, especially on Steam, so if the devs and publishers realise they can never really lose a dollar, they could slash their game price standard and absolutely bury the competition.

Yes I have, doesn't make it forward compatible with the OS you are running it on. And again some games need patching to work on newer OSes (like Never Winter Night for example). Or need a emulator because the OS doesn't support the coding of the game (like DosBOX).
Sometimes I just watch the boards burn

Now that Sony has patented new tech to stop used games on consoles everyone seems to be complaining. But the thing is that its been that way for PC games for ages. You can't resell or trade in a PC game. Nobody really complains about this.
Thats only because of activation keys. Many games will still allow an install, you have to purchase a new key to activate.
This is more about BC on consoles forcing consumers to pay top dollar for gaming.
You watch. EA et al will spin activation codes for those that purchase titles 2nd hand. Considering netbox & Orbis must be connected at all times (if thats true) have either then, got a disk drive anymore?

Sending different email notifications based on entered email address within specific timeframeAsked by postmeit on September 12, 2013 at 04:36 PM
I want to be able to limit the number of email notifications sent:
Hi I am trying to solve a problem and think this would achieve what I need.
I would like to limit the number of canned email notifications (based on a condition) sent to 1 or 2 a day based on an email address, but not limit the number of entries that they can make.
eg If none from that email today then send this as first reply. If another entry from that email then send a second different email... and so on.
I know that you can limit the number of entries to a form based on a field which I guess i because you are querying a new entry against all prievious entries - so would logically think this should be possible too. It would add a great deal of flexibility and make sending emails based on conditions for various workflows much easier.
Many thanks and thanks for such a great product...
Regards, William

Church &Organizational Services
The Church is the central area of focus in uniting people of Faith to become aware of the issues related to Modern Day Slavery in America and how to effectively pray to end it. We are asking Pastors and Leaders from around the country to take a minimum of 10 minutes during their time of corporate fellowship and gatherings to talk about Human Trafficking and lead a time of prayer asking God to bring about an end to modern slavery. The video provides a great introduction and the document we've created has several stats and prayer points to help make it easy.
We're encouraging families across America to take some time in the evening to come together for prayer and discussion on the issues of Modern Day Slavery, as well as how to protect themselves and talk about what they can do to help end this injustice.
Our desire is to empower parents and guardians to be able to openly discuss the issues their children face in our ever-changing society, equipping them with information on how to stay safe (online and off) and how Traffickers and Predators operate. Furthermore, by teaching children about the effects Human Trafficking and Modern Day Slavery is having on our Nation and the World, we seek to prevent them from the snares and pitfalls that can lead one into becoming a customer and consumer of the fastest growing illegal enterprise in the World.

Personalizing guidelines for diabetes management: twilight or dawn of the expert?
This opinion article on the management of type 2 diabetes considers the old and new format of guidelines and critical changes in the character of such guidelines. We highlight limitations of the guidelines and make recommendations for how treatment can be more personalised.
Published guidelines for the management of adult-onset non-insulin requiring diabetes have adopted a formulaic approach to patient management that can be overseen centrally and delivered by personnel with limited training. Recently, guidelines have taken a patient-centered, multiple risk-factor approach. Importantly, local funding issues are considered, but drive the final action and not the decision-making process. The nature of the disease can be determined by laboratory tests, including screening for diabetes-associated autoantibodies. The strategy remains step-up, with intensification of drug or insulin dose. As with past guidelines, there is an assumption that in each patient with type 2 diabetes, metformin is used initially, but targets and therapies then veer in different directions to create a matrix of options based on the features and responses of each individual. Factors to consider include: (A)ge, (B)ody weight, (C)omplications and co-morbidities, Diabetes (D)uration and (E)xpense, but also patient preference and patient response.
Guidelines for the management of type 2 diabetes have important limitations and a patient-centered, multiple target, multiple therapy approach is proposed.
Ancient Greek Hippocrates (c. 460 BC to c. 370 BC) advised physicians for patients:
Diabetes is a complex disease characterized by deterioration of glycaemia and co-morbidity. In adult patients, the comorbidity is often the result of a risk factor spectrum associated with a high proportion of cases and broadly identified as the Metabolic Syndrome, with the clustering of obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia, as well as hyperglycemia
In this opinion article we will tackle these issues as handled by the rash of recent guidelines. In one sense this dawn of the guidelines could spell the twilight of the professional, for guidelines are presented as simple guides to patient management to be applied by health care providers who are not experts in diabetes management. Such guidelines raise the important question as to whether diabetes management can be formulaic or whether it must be professional and patient-centered. Importantly, this review is not a guideline. Indeed, our aim is to highlight the limitations of guidelines. In short, it is to herald a return to the personal professional care provided by an expert, without recourse to centralized broad strategies.
Overarching strategy
Patients with diabetes are at risk of macrovascular and microvascular disease
Appropriate therapeutic targets
Hyperglycemia is usually determined using glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), an index of average blood glucose levels over two to three months, determined by the percentage of haemoglobin with an adduct of glucose. Therapeutic targets should vary from patient to patient. For optimum diabetes control an HbA1c value of less than 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) is widely proposed
Targets can determine therapy
The glucose-lowering effectiveness of agents varies, so the degree of HbA1c reduction sought will impact the decision as to which agent to use. Insulin aside, the efficacy is high for metformin, sulfonylureas (SUs), thiazolidinediones (glitazones) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists (expected HbA1c reduction approximately 1.0 to 1.5%) and, generally, lower for meglitinides, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, acarbose, colesevelam and bromocriptine (approximately 0.5 to 1.0%) (Table
Insulin is widely used to treat type 2 diabetes because numerous studies indicate that it works. However, it carries a risk of both hypoglycemia and weight gain, two critical issues in assessing the value of any given therapy. The fall in HbA1c comes at a cost of rising hypoglycemia-risk, and analogues of long-acting and short-acting insulin reduce nocturnal hypoglycemia and post-prandial glucose, respectively, without benefiting HbA1c levels. GLP-1 agonists are as effective as insulin at reducing HbA1c, with the additional benefit of weight loss without hypoglycemia, but then a proportion of cases develop nausea and acute pancreatitis is, possibly, an additional, albeit very small, risk
Approaches to insulin therapy include three regimes: a single injection of basal insulin, multiple prandial insulin injections and two injections of biphasic insulin. The only trial comparing these regimens concluded that basal and prandial insulin each provide better glucose control than the biphasic insulin regimen, while basal insulin benefits from fewer hypoglycemic episodes and less weight gain
Targets modified by co-morbidities
While target HbA1c levels can be specified in guidelines, these levels are modified by comorbidities, so it is important to take other diseases into account. In patients without established complications and with short disease duration, both the risk of microvascular and macrovascular disease is reduced by lowering HbA1c (every approximately 1% HbA1c reduction is associated with a 25% relative risk reduction for microvascular disease progression)
Cardiovascular complications are important considerations when patients are given HbA1c-lowering therapy. A meta-analysis of cardiovascular outcomes in major trials suggested that every approximately 1% HbA1c reduction is associated with a 15% relative risk reduction in non-fatal myocardial infarction, but without benefit on stroke or all-cause mortality
Targets and duration of disease
Disease duration should be considered when defining HbA1c targets. Early strict glycaemic control prevents micro- and macrovascular complications
Advanced microvascular complications are difficult to reverse and, by implication, the same is true of established macrovascular disease. Therefore, patients with major micro- and macrovascular complications should not be given strict HbA1c targets. However, in patients with background retinopathy, irrespective of other vascular disease, progression of retinopathy can be limited by controlling HbA1c so, in these patients, a strict HbA1c target could be beneficial
Appropriate therapy
As is the case for targets of therapy, so the best drug treatment will vary between patients.
Step-up or step-down
Guidelines tend to be based on: step-up therapy by drug numbers; step-up therapy by intensification of drug action; single risk factor (for example, hyperglycemia or hypertension, but not both); specific and universal targets (for example, HbA1c 7.0%); and the consideration of type 2 diabetes as a single disease
At least one recent study has taken a step-down approach to initial intensive therapy, using a combination of drugs at low dose, but final results of that study are awaited
Step-up hierarchy
Management of type 2 diabetes, once life-style intervention has failed, usually involves the introduction of metformin
Durability of drug action is an important consideration in the management of type 2 diabetes, but is not broadly considered in guidelines owing to the lack of alternatives
Multiple targets and outcomes
Since type 2 diabetes involves multiple risk factors, it follows that therapy also involves multiple targets, multiple potential outcomes and multiple drugs to achieve those targets for each individual. Guidelines rarely consider the interrelationship between multiple therapeutic options, but do consider the list of modifiable risk factors including: blood pressure and lipid therapy, anti-platelet treatment and smoking cessation. For example, fenofibrate, a lipid-lowering agent, may also be beneficial in limiting the progression of retinopathy
Most drug trials focus on lowering of blood glucose, weight loss and hypoglycemia, whilst omitting outcome in terms of macrovascular and microvascular disease
Non-insulin requiring diabetes: multiple diseases?
The heterogeneity of diabetes is such that it is difficult to be certain of the cause of the disease in any given patient without recourse to laboratory tests. Non-insulin dependent diabetes is a diagnosis by exclusion, that is by exclusion of insulin-dependent diabetes. There is substantial evidence, however, that about 10% of patients, both European and Chinese, presenting in adulthood with diabetes that does not, at least initially, require insulin treatment, having diabetes-associated autoantibodies and the HLA genetic susceptibility and protection found in type 1 diabetes
SUs are probably contraindicated in patients with adult-onset autoimmune diabetes, including latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA), due to the marked lack of durability of their action by comparison with insulin
Therapy and co-morbidities
The universal benefit of reducing blood glucose, irrespective of the agent, indicates a generic effect, likely true for all glucose-lowering treatments. So, as outcome studies become available, we will have to modify whatever position we currently take on the newer therapies. Co-existent diseases which impact therapeutic decisions include renal disease and macrovascular disease.
Macrovascular disease
Macrovascular disease can impact the use of certain drugs. Recommendations for those with cerebrovascular disease in general match those with cardiovascular disease; while SUs and glinides should be avoided and glitazones have a complex role, all other treatment options can be used to control blood glucose as appropriate. SUs (and glinides) have been reported to reduce myocardial blood flow and increase early mortality after acute ischaemia
Impaired renal function
When renal function is impaired, drugs cleared by the kidney may not be cleared appropriately, so that blood levels may increase. Metformin and liraglutide are contraindicated when the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <60 ml/min. DPP-4 inhibitors when GFR <50 ml/min are broadly contraindicated (or the dose should be adjusted) but linagliptin can be used at all stages of renal dysfunction
In summary, co-morbidities can direct drug use and drug action as well as the risk of drug side-effects. These potential effects will vary from one drug to another and between patients to influence therapeutic decisions.
Individualised targets and therapies
We have already discussed the need to individualize therapeutic targets based on age, complications and co-morbidities and disease duration; the same applies to therapies. For all medications, consideration should also be given to overall tolerability. Even occasional hypoglycemia may be devastating, if severe, or merely irritating, if mild
Gastrointestinal side effects may be tolerated by some, but not others. Fluid retention may pose a clinical but also, an aesthetic, problem. Substantial individual variation in side-effects, as well as beneficial effects of all agents, influences our approach to the individual case depending on the patient's response. At least one expert has proposed drug-ranging trials to determine the best positive/negative ratio for each agent in any given patient
Finally, those patients who are obese will favor agents that are weight neutral or reduce weight, such as metformin and GLP-1 agonists (Table
Multifaceted interaction
Whilst, at first sight, the doctor might make a decision based on the details about the patient, in reality two other factors are involved in that decision. First, the patients themselves bring with them a raft of prejudices and concerns, fears and constraints, which may have to be carefully elicited. Notable among these fears are the fear of insulin. That fear stems from the fear of hypoglycemia and of injections, but also from concerns about weight gain or from historical issues, such as relatives who started insulin treatment and fared badly. Second, the funding agencies often seek to determine, by constraint or coercion, which therapies are available or can be used. Given the substantial variation in resources around the world, both in terms of access to drugs as well as the cost of drugs, it follows that discussion of costs could only be parochial and will be broadly avoided here. But the cheaper drugs are drugs with a long-history (metformin, SUs and human insulin), while more expensive drugs are those only recently available (the rest). It follows that outcome studies, which are available for 'historical' forms of treatment, provide a justification for their use.
The definition both of the target of HbA1c as well as therapeutic options and individual responses to therapy can guide clinicians towards more effective, efficient and safe treatment of type 2 diabetes. In this article we outlined the matrix of options available to the physician and highlighted factors critical to decision-making, without setting out a precise plan, in the spirit of 'personalized' therapy. It is our contention that the complexity of the matrix of options precludes rigid guidelines. We appreciate that this approach is less cost-effective when compared with guidelines, which can be followed by health care personnel without strong medical training. In this context of increasing health care costs, guidelines are at the end of the beginning but, for the expert, they are not the beginning of the end.

In case you didn't know, a major scene from Star Wars The Force Awakens was shot in Ireland, on Skellig Michael.
It's a pretty amazing moment in the film, which makes the most of some remarkably untouched scenes from the island retreat which was first inhabited by monks almost 1500 years ago. The ancient structures and stairway on the island have remained preserved and mostly untouched, and were the site of shooting for the massive Disney film in 2014.
A new video talks about the importance of the Irish location for the film, complete with comments from director JJ Abrams and more.
The video comes from Tourism Ireland and was certainly created as part of the agreement between the studio and the Irish government. It aims to increase tourist numbers to the islands and the surrounding areas in the months and years ahead. And we're due another Star Wars boost in the future as well, with scenes from Episode VIII already completed and in the can for a summer 2017 release.

Rhinoplasty for a dent in nose tip. (photos)
Doctor Answers 4
Rhinoplasty for a dent in nose tip.
Thank you for your question.
In the operations like "nasal tip correction", "simple rhinoplasty" there is no need for a bone excision however these minor operations cannot be beneficial for everyone. The operation type is need to be determined by the surgeon according to needs of the patient. In these minor operations the rhinoplasty is performed with closed method. The bone and the cartilage tissues are not involved in the surgery directly. Small nasal bumps can be removed in these operations.
In the operation that needs the bone and cartilage tissues to be involved; open approach is used. In the procedures with open approach, the size, shape and functionality of the nose can be improved. The big nasal bumps can be removed and septal deviations can be corrected providing a better nasal airway.
Rhinoplasty for bifid tip
Thanks for your question and photos. You have a bifid tip which means the cartilages are separated and the skin is thin over them. This can be repaired with a rhinoplasty. Non surgical rhinoplasty is not usually very effective. Good luck.
Bifid Nasal Tip Concerns
Your indentation appears to be a bifid nasal tip cleft formed by the cartilages that make up the columella of your nose. This is a common concerns and can be easily corrected with a strut cartilage graft and/or suture modification through an open rhinoplasty approach. Speak with a rhinoplasty specialist about your concerns. Fortunately, you do not have to live with this indention and I believe you would benefit from correction. Best Wishes.

Dent in the nose
It is difficult to be specific but there are a number of surgical and non-surgical options for a problem like this. I would suggest you make a consultation with a specialist rhinoplasty surgeon, who could explain in greater detail. It is a complicated subject that requires a face-to-face consultation to come up with a sensible plan. Good luck

Fans love, hate new stadium design
By SALLY CLAUNCH and ANDREA AHLES
ARLINGTON — A computer mouse? A Space Age football? A Bose Wave radio?
Those comparisons and more have been among the reactions of fans and experts today as final designs for the new Dallas Cowboys stadium were made public.
Roger DeFrang, a Cowboys season ticket holder from Arlington, was most pleased to see the hole in the $1 billion stadium's retractable roof, echoing the trademark of Texas Stadium in Irving.
"So many times tradition is eliminated," he said. "But the fact that they left the hole in the roof, that's beyond tradition."
DeFrang called the design fan-friendly with its numerous video screens and plaza area where patrons can gather to watch the game while standing at bar tables. Those features will offer fans a suite-like experience without the suite-level price.
Though the stadium will have 80,000 permanent seats, DeFrang said he was surprised that the venue isn't bigger. Texas Stadium seats almost 58,000; the new stadium will be expandable to 100,000 seats for other events.
Critics called the stadium design a monstrosity and decried the projected average ticket price of $98.88 that the Cowboys have cited in financing documents. They also complained about the $325 million contribution that Arlington voters committed toward the project through various taxes.
But Bruce Deramus, Chairman of Concerned Taxpayers of Arlington, a watchdog group opposed to the stadium, said the building looks like a cross between a whaling ship and a Bose Wave radio.
"A big problem with this kind of design is it becomes dated really quick," he said.
Deramus said team owner Jerry Jones should have been more conscious of the traditional architecture that's already in Arlington, such as Ameriquest Field.
"With the ballpark, this is a style that Arlington has committed to, and the new stadium is not that," he said. "But of course, this isn't about Arlington."
That's a misleading headline for that article. The only "fan" quoted liked the stadium. And the only person it quoted who hated the design was the chairman of the group that didn't want the stadium.
Man I wish JJ was building it here NJ.
Might ruin the "Dallas" Cowboys but it would allow me to get season tickets and actually go to all the games.
That thing looks awesome. It's a little space age, so it COULD look dated eventually, but I like the personality better than the box built in FedEx. Those screens are amazing.
Now if only we played like we deserved a new stadium
Wow...you just lost right there. And your stadium is ugly. I know the Eagles fans are idiots, but I didn't think the architects would be too. You just made a fool out of yourself by showing that ugly thing. Congrats.
I feel bad though. You must be so jealous. We're a superior franchise and we will have a stadium that you could not even dream to have. Plus, our QB has a knee that works.
...I know, it's just not fair.
But to end on a positive note: I really can't wait for this thing to be built. It's just beautiful.

Activist, Star Trek actor, and all-around hero George Takei has again demonstrated what it means to support a community.
In the aftermath of the massacre at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, local tattoo artists are doing their part to bring the community together and support the victims.
Over the course of several days, artists at Stigma Tattoo Bar in Orlando donated their time to offer the community tattoos commemorating the nightclub. The artists created more than a dozen special designs, and patrons could choose any of them for a flat fee of $50, with proceeds helping families of the victims and other relief efforts.
When Westboro Baptist Church came to protest at the funerals of victims of the Orlando massacre, a group of people wearing handmade angel wings kept protesters out of sight and left mourners in peace.
As the debate over transgender people in bathrooms rages on, no place has been more scrutinized than North Carolina, where the pushback against HB2 continues to make national news.
That's why it's so important that Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, the second-largest school district in the state, just announced that transgender students will have the right to choose their names, pronouns, and bathrooms beginning this fall.
The verdict is in: Same-sex parents raise happy, healthy kids.
It's backed by study after study, and the legalization of marriage equality will only make it more widely known that there is virtually no difference in the general wellbeing of kids with same-sex parents versus different-sex parents. The debate is over.
But that news hasn't reached Rep. Trent Franks, a Republican lawmaker from Arizona.

UNICEF states that "In HIV/AIDS affected households lacking community support, food consumption can drop by more than 40 percent, putting children at higher risk of malnutrition and stunting".
Villages of Hope Africa provides nutrition every day to over 3000 orphaned and vulnerable children through our school programs. Eighty-five percent (85%) of these children come from communities surrounding a Village of Hope location, with the remaining 15% living at a Village of Hope.
By providing either H.E.P.S. (High Energy Protein Supplement) porridge or a comparable nutritious meal, the care givers of these children have the peace of mind knowing that their child is receiving their daily nutritional requirements.
A UNICEF study in Zimbabwe revealed that the proportion of children from households with serious food deficits dropping out of school, related directly to whether or not they were part of a school feeding program during the preceding school year. UNICEF determined that "School feeding programs keep vulnerable children in school".
Through our nutrition program we are able to not only provide children with the nutrition they need, but also prevent malnutrition from inhibiting their education.

While promoting her new self-help book The Body Book, Cameron said that she believes vagina is the most integral part of the body.
Diaz is so into vaginas (both figuratively and literally) that she even has a pretty simile for it.
"Learn about it," Diaz told Chelsea Handler while guesting on her talk show. "You're supposed to treat it like the beautiful flower that is, the delicate flower that it is, and you're supposed to nurture it in all the ways that it needs nurturing."
Handler agreed, adding that women should water their flowers.
"Yes, watering it, fertilizing it; it needs nourishment," Diaz agreed. "It's hungry."
"Because it's a science book, and since we used to be covered in hair, and now we're not except for a few places, I figure there's a purpose for that hair," Diaz said on Chelsea Lately.
"So I put some of the purposes for it, and I also suggest that no matter how you enjoy grooming it throughout your life — whether it's shave it all off, wax it all off, put a bulls eye, birthday cake, I don't care — just, girls, think about not taking it all off forever. Permanency means forever. It doesn't come back. You might change your mind in a few years."

This is my first and last blog.
I loved both the high-quality writing and acting as well as the mysterious--downright creepy--mythology of the show. There is no question I was more into the latter than the former.
There are many well done shows on TV (Madmen comes to mind) which I do not watch. A show has to have something more to get me to tune in. For six season, Lost had that. I was completely blown away by the first 2 season. A lot of comments on here have stressed the "spiritual" aspects of the show and how the ending addressed them. I agree.
But that's only half the story.
The episode was named "Man of Science/Man of Faith." Not just "Man of Faith." To those who say the show was always about the relationships. I will take a moment to point out that it was continuously sold and promoted with the mysteries, not the characters. There were a few moments, like the reunions, which got a little time in the promo's, but almost every promo ever run by ABC featured "answers" and "revelations."
This show introduced me to Jeremy Bentham, a philosopher who radically changed the world. I am embarrassed to say I was unfamiliar with him, until the makers of Lost decided to use Easter Eggs get people to google Philosophers, great classic and contemporary literature, and other cultural wonders. This show had me online translating hieroglyphics. It had me reading about ancient myths. For those things, I give them my heartiest ovation.
I had my own theories. Everyone else did. And those theories were about the Island, and not about Juliet and Sawyer. I enjoyed that story, but it was like many, many, many other stories on many, many, many other TV shows. The island, on the other hand, was unique. The effort to tell a grand, mysterious story about something frightening and wonderous through the characters and relationships was unique.
Just saying: "Use your own imagination" is just about as disappointing an ending as I could imagine. I wanted (and I think was promised by the producers) to hear what THEY had to say, in the final word, about what the island and where it came from, and what had we been watching for these many years.
They didn't even try.
That really disappointed me, especially after they had spent so much time and clearly so much effort building this elaborate mythology which flowed from ancient times, through the age of exploration, through the cold war and into the present (they had an Egyptologist on staff, for chrissake). I wasn't expecting a 90-minute expository lecture, just some basic information that we could take home. Remembering the thrill of the Lost Experience, I would have been thrilled if they had just done their thing, and then posted a new Dharma website that we could have turned to, along with the "closure" that the finale brought to the characters.
Sadly, even that wasn't well done. I am still confused about what exactly the FST was. Why did they "need" it to "Find" each other? Where are they going next?
I sincerely hope that this was not the product of the producers/writers simply having moved on professionally and mentally. My only real hope now, is that they have something up their sleeve that will be canon and will settle some of (any?) of the questions once and for all.
To everyone on here, thanks so much for the great debates, great ideas, great insights, and the great time. Despite my thorough disappointment with the ending, Lost is the show of the decade. It stands out as one of the great TV shows of all time. This site made it that much more fun for me to be a fan. The fact that some people on here can believe that the show was ONLY about the relationships and some can believe the show was ONLY about the mysteries just shows what a great job they did.

Hillary's new campaign ad focuses on her foreign policy experience. She is wearing a hi-jab and at the same time talks about how she supports women? How can you support a religion and culture that oppresses women and say you're a champion of women's rights at the same time?
A Hijab is an Islamanic garment of submission and can be a source of Muslim violence against women, both in punishing women who don't wear it and punishing women who take it off.
Hillary cannot run on her record for supporting women or for protecting our military. She destroyed the women that Bill Clinton violated and left Americans to die in Benghazi. All that Hillary has is trickery and lies to base her Presidential Campaign on, therefore, she sports a Hijab.. Go Crooked Hillary, you're giving Americans a great preview of the kind of leader you would be. We never thought anyone could be worse than Obama!

Hi There. Thanks. it seems to have sorted itself out!
Appreciate the help
Great service as always!
Could've been simply because the form has not loaded fully as evidenced by the presence of the stop (x) button in the broswer. Which could be due to slow speed or the browser not able to do parallel processing efficiently.
JotForm Support
Yes, this might be the case why you have the experienced the issue. It seems that this happens when the resources of the form (i.e styles/css) are not fully loaded. I tried to access again your sites on my end but still I was not able to encounter the issue. If you have any other question or concern, please feel free to contact us again.

Can you imagine what it means to grow up as the child of a mass murderer? Hans Frank and Otto von Wächter were indicted as war criminals for their roles in WWII. Nazi Governors and consultants to Hitler himself, the two are collectively responsible for thousands of deaths. But what stood out to Philippe Sands were the impressions they left on their sons. While researching the Nuremberg trials, the human rights lawyer came across two men who re-focused his studies: Niklas Frank and Horst von Wächter. The men hold polar opposite views on the men who raised them.

So, it's that time again. Everyone is talking about the end of the season, and I still feel like it hasn't really started. It wasn't an overly successful season for me and I only ran a couple races. With the combination of the summer university semester and working a full time research position I was left with a lot less running time than I would have liked. Not to mention I was trying to incorporate cycling into my schedule and train for a small 10 day bike tour.
So, I am left feeling like I still have a lot of road running left in me before I am banished to the mill. That being said, I have decided to run outside this winter... gasp! For a lot of runners in warmer climates this might not seem like anything out of the ordinary, I on the other hand long for the luxury of being able to run and cycle 365 days a year. Unfortunately I live in very beautiful yet VERY cold province, where the winter weather always wins and I end up running inside, or not at all. I don't have the nerve yet to attempt to cycle outside (plus I actually really enjoy spin class) but I am going to tackle winter, head on.
In preparation of this new venture I've made a couple purchases:
I love MEC!
I'm hoping these two pieces will substantially help me stay comfortable along with the other run clothing I have.
My main worry however is staying off my ass.
I'm not sure how to dress my feet. From what I've read wool socks and regular running shoes should do the trick but how do I stop from slipping all over the place? After searching around the tubes I've come across YakTrax. These things seem perfect! There is even a video of people running around with them on an ice rink. I'm a little worried about them hurting my feet after a few miles but it'll hurt a lot more wiping out on the ice, which i'll most definitely do. :)
Whatever it takes, I will get out there and run!
There is it, my mission statement.
I know I still have a lot to learn about winter running and it might kick my ass but I'm going to at least try.
Happy Halloween all! (my 'Thriller MJ' pumpkin and I)
Enjoy the fall season while it lasts!

At a bustling general store in Lahore, a major metropolitan center of culture and learning, people ask a lot of questions about one seemingly innocuous product: table salt.
If it contains iodine, about 40 percent of his customers spurn it, according to proprietor Muhammad Waqas Vicky. They won't allow their families to consume what they call "mixed salt," believing it causes infertility.
"The majority among them are businessmen and religious people," Vicky said from behind the counter. Pakistanis of all classes have been hearing about the alleged dangers of iodized salt for nearly two decades. But insufficient iodine in the diet can cause spontaneous abortion, stillbirth, goiter, mental retardation, birth defects and other developmental problems.
Anti-polio campaigns here have been the target of deadly attacks that stemmed from similar myths, but officials blame the iodine-related infertility rumors, at least in part, for a massive health crisis. Nearly half of Pakistan's population of 200 million suffers from some form of iodine deficiency disorder, according to last year's National Nutrition Survey, which was carried out by academics, UNICEF and Pakistan's Health Ministry.
Various reports have linked manifestations such as lethargy and lower IQ scores to dampened national productivity, which can further harm a fragile country like Pakistan, consistently beset by economic crisis as it is.
How did this happen? Some experts see little mystery in the evolution of what has become one of Pakistan's more bizarre, longer-running and destructive conspiracy theories.
Seventeen years ago, well-meaning government officials launched a maternal health initiative in the face of ever-rising birth rates. To this day, people remember a slide show on official Pakistan television — at the time the nation's only channel — that pushed prenatal care and awareness of vital nutrients.
The next-to-the-last slide promoted one element in particular: iodine.
The final slide, officials recall, credited the initiative to the government's department of primary health and family planning.
"There was a communication mistake," Tariq Aziz, an expert on iodized salt production, said of the 1995 broadcast. "People thought this was purely a family planning initiative."
After the public conflated iodine with government-enforced birth control, rumors took off about an international scheme to limit Muslim population growth through iodized salt. The falsehoods became especially potent in a society that prizes large families and where contraception use is low.
By 2001, a mere 17 percent of Pakistani households used iodized salt, UNICEF reported, compared to, say, Bangladesh, where the consumption rate was 78 percent.
Today as many as 30 percent of Pakistanis still won't allow the dread element to reach their tables, according to Aziz, a Lahore-based official with the nonprofit Micronutrient Initiative, a Canadian-funded program that promotes more use of not just iodine but vitamin A, zinc and iron.
In the United States, medical researchers began goiter prevention programs using iodine in the 1920s. Access to and consumption of iodized salt is universal in many developed nations.
But according to research published this year in the Journal of Nutrition, an estimated 242 million children worldwide don't get enough iodine, and about 30 percent of the planet's population still have insufficient iodine intake, "despite remarkable progress." From 2003 to 2011, the number of countries rated iodine-deficient dropped from 54 to 32.
Pakistan's health crisis isn't just the fault of rumors. The country's soil is already deficient in iodine because of flooding and erosion, and successive administrations failed to heed calls for mandatory iodization laws.
Politicians dallied for years before crafting legislation to require universal iodization, despite the well-proved damage inflicted on children. No federal law ever passed, and in 2010, responsibilities for many federal functions devolved to the provinces under a constitutional amendment.
But critics say salt iodization laws are not uniform and are haphazardly applied at local levels. The provinces hardest hit by iodine-deficiency health problems are Balochistan, where only 41 of households use iodized salt, and Sindh, where 52 percent do, according to the National Nutrition Survey.
Avoidance of iodine tends to be most common in rural areas where illiteracy rates are high, public health advocates say, but it reaches across the nation. In one school district near Lahore, half of the 1,200 students showed signs of iodine deficiency disorders, according to the Micronutrient Initiative.
In a small village on the outskirts of Islamabad, the capital, 58 percent of the inhabitants had developed visible goiters, said Rubina Bhatti of the Network for Consumer Protection, a health advocacy group.
In rural parts of Punjab province and other areas, people tend to use natural rock salt that they mine and grind themselves.
"Once I bought a packet of salt along with other household items and my wife refused to use it," said Muhammad Zafar, a laborer from a village 60 miles from Lahore. "Even some of my friends have told me stories that the doctors have advised them to not use iodized salt if they want to avoid infertility."
Mosque leaders also continue to argue that iodine is a health scourge, or at very least a Western plot.
"I do not use iodine salt, and I advise my relatives and friends not to use it as well," said one Lahore cleric, Maulana Muhammad Asim.
"I do not have any evidence to prove that it is causing infertility," he added. "But my question is: Why are the U.S. and the West are so worried about the health of Pakistanis that they are forcing us to use iodine? . . . They have an agenda."
In Pakistan, some nongovernmental public health organizations have resorted to what amounts to stealth iodization, providing subsidies to salt factory owners who add the micronutrient during production.
The salt often reaches markets unpackaged, to be vended by weight.
"It is sold in bulk, unbranded — it is open-bag salt, and consumers will not know if contains it iodine," said Muhammad Yasin with the Micronutrient Initiative. "They get the health benefit even if they don't know it."
