Parasite Pursuit: Sand fly coughs up leishmania protozoan's secrets of proliferation
Leishmania, a tropical parasite carried by sand flies, spreads prolifically to mammals by forcing the flies to regurgitate as they bite their prey, a new study finds.
While still in the sand fly, the parasite secretes—and then multiplies in—a gel that obstructs the fly's throat. When the fly bites a person or another mammal to feed on blood, the insect is forced to expel the parasite-laden blob of gel into the victim's bloodstream, the researchers report in the July 22 Nature. Inside the new host, the gel appears to promote the parasite's survival.
A fly remains infected for life. So, by obstructing the sand fly's digestive tract, the parasite could also be forcing the insect to take more blood meals than normal, prompting more bites and hence greater spread, hypothesizes Matthew E. Rogers, a parasitologist at the University of Liverpool in England.

Alright, so this guy seems all powerful and mightily irrelevant all at once. Here are some questions that bounce around my large, almost spherical head when I think about the man from London.
1) How did he go from jungle running crazy man to international, sailboat racing billionaire in the span of what seems only a few years? You could say 12 years (1992 to 2004) was enough time to somehow strike it rich (could have bought bigbutts.com or something and sold it for a pretty 'penny'- eh? get it? ok sorry back to the point), but consider the fact that he already seemed wildly rich in Desmond's flashbacks, some of which must have taken place only a few short years after he was booted from Pleasure Island. How did he get the loot??
2) What in the name of Jacob happened to him on the island to get him kicked off? Was Nemesis working his magic back then? Does it matter to any of you out there?
3) How does he have a son like Daniel Faraday? Where did those genes (nevermind the accent!) come from??
4) What about Penny? When was she born, and to whom? Many argued with me when I proffered the idea that it was PENNY in Eloise's tum tum during the The Incident, but my god would that make more sense than Daniel. Anyway, no proof for that one, one way or another, but how does SHE fit in?
5) The ultimate question really is: Will he have a role in the story next season? I feel like he is in some middle ground of power, where he is stronger than Ben (on a global scale) but not as powerful as the demigods chilling on the beach (Jacob and Bocaj, which is a name I just made up for the man in black)
Please enlighten me, my lovely Lostpedians.

5 Enduring Values Dr. Nejat F. Eczacıbaşı, the founder of the Eczacıbaşı Group VitrA s logo chronology (from top to bottom) VitrA logo recreated in 2006 VitrA is not only an inheritor of Anatolia s millenia old ceramic art tradition, it is also steeped in the culture that gave birth to the delightfully purifying Turkish hamam experience. The precursor to the brand, Eczacıbaşı s initial production facility was a small workshop launched in 1942 in a daring effort to supply the country with a variety of earthenware products that couldn t be imported during the war years. After the war, economic revival was accompanied by a construction boom which led Eczacıbaşı to pioneer the domestic production of ceramic sanitaryware. Contemporary in style and more hygienic than its traditional marble counterpart, ceramic proved hugely popular with consumers. In 1958 the company opened its first modern production plant dedicated to ceramic sanitaryware in response to surging demand. By the year 1966 when VitrA was adopted as the brandname for Eczacıbaşı sanitaryware, the brand already had almost 25 years of history behind it as the uncontested leader of the domestic market. A faucet production plant was opened in 1979, heralding the strategic decision to diversify into complementary bathroom products. A high-achieving competitor in foreign markets since 1983, today VitrA is the leading global provider of a full range of bathroom components. 50% of the brand s production is sold abroad through a powerful distribution network that includes over 150 showrooms and 2,000 sales points in major cities around the world. Innovative, imaginative and passionate about quality, VitrA draws upon its proud heritage to create contemporary bathrooms with a universal appeal and a timeless promise of relaxed luxury. 6 7
6 VitrA as a Global Brand Developing innovative products for unique bathroom experiences and an expansive range of tiles with a full commitment to sustainability. That s one of the main reasons for VitrA s rising success as an inspiring brand in various countries around the world. As a brand which combines superior design concepts with cutting-edge technology to redefine our relationship with water, VitrA s quest is to become a primary source of new pure ideas for both world s most fastidious professionals and end users.

From 15 production facilities in Turkey, Germany, France and Russia, VitrA supplies millions of pieces of ceramic sanitaryware each year to over 75 countries on five continents, accompanied by matching series of bathroom furniture, bathtubs, faucets and accessories. A Treasure of Tiles With an annual production rate of 26,650,000 m 2, VitrA is a leading European manufacturer of ceramic and porcelain wall and floor tiles.

About the Book
A handbook for parents and students alike by actress, drama coach and agent, Tonicha Lawrence.
Written by Tonicha herself, this book offers practical advice and do's and don't's to anyone thinking of pursuing an acting career as a child or an adult. Tonicha is passionate about actor training. She knows the profession inside out and from practically every angle, with more than 30 years experience in the industry.
Tonicha covers everything from choosing a drama school; parents' etiquette; working in TV and Theatre; as well as coaching her own daughter, Sydney Wade.
This handy, but pleasantly no-nonsense manual is essential reading – or an essential gift! – for any aspiring actor and parent.

About the Creator
Tonicha has been working in the industry since the age of 2 years old and since that time appeared in many musicals, television and theatre productions. Tonicha was one of the youngest artists ever to be accepted into the prestigious 'London studio Centre' at the tender age of 15 years, beating hundreds of applicants. This was an opportunity she was unable to take as she won her most recognised role to date as Linda Glover in Emmerdale. After leaving the show she returned to the stage and spent the next few years touring in rep (Hull Truck Theatre Company), musicals and television shows "Where the Heart Is" and "A Wonderful Life". After a 10 year break from the industry she is now ready to return to her roots and start acting once again.

We're now using Kentucky hemp!
Bluebird Botanicals is now proudly using hemp grown in Kentucky
In the early Spring of 2016, Bluebird partnered with farmers in Kentucky to organically grow a few dozen acres of cannabinoid-rich hemp for us. The harvesting and extracting is nearly complete, and we've begun to use the extracts in our products!
We are an approved "Buyer" through the Kentucky Department of Agriculture's hemp pilot research program, which is wholly compliant with Section 7606 of the Agricultural Appropriations Act of 2014, better known as the 2014 Farm Bill that was signed into law by former President Obama in February of 2014.
In the USA, the legal definition of hemp is: "INDUSTRIAL HEMP — The term ''industrial hemp'' means the plant Cannabis sativa L. and any part of such plant, whether growing or not, with a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than 0.3 percent on a dry weight basis." This means it's now legal to grow hemp in the USA and that processors can legally use the trichome rich flowers to create and market hemp products if done pursuant to the 2014 Farm Bill.
Here are some photos of our beautiful Kentucky hemp plants from this year's growing season!
For the time being, we are using both European and American grown hemp. For domestic sales, we plan to fully transition away from European grown this year.
July 6th, 2017 Update: we're thrilled to announce that we're currently transitioning to sourcing 100% of our hemp from our home state, Colorado. We will conclude this transition before August of 2017. Click here to read about this transformation.

Organic Cotton Bath Towels ~ Eco Friendly
In order for towels to be marked "organic cotton bath towels" they have to meet certain guidelines.
Organic Cotton Towels
Specifically there can be no pesticides used in growing the cotton, nor any chemical fertilizer. Organic cotton is also unbleached and un-dyed.
The result is a very ecologically friendly towel that offers durability and softness. Cotton as a fiber breathes. It's naturally absorbent and long lasting.
Fibers in organic cotton won't become brittle because the haven't been exposed to additional chemicals in the manufacturing process.
Why Buy Organic?
Environmental sustainability is very important to our present and future.
We cannot continue to use the Earth's resources as if they were all renewable.
Thus, organic products like organic cotton towels offer us the opportunity to work cooperatively with the environment.
The world health organization tells us that over 20,000 global deaths occur from pesticide poisoning, many of which happen in cotton fields.
That's because cotton has traditionally been a chemically-treated crop. So by supporting organic cotton products we are also safeguarding the cotton workers, neighboring livestock, and whole communities.
People who are greening their homes turn to pure cotton for the luxury it affords, Better still, individuals who have problems with skin sensitivity will find that organic cotton is very soothing – it has not been processed with chemicals so there's nothing to irritate the skin.
Organic cotton bath towels are an excellent choice for babies and young children too. Non-organic towels aren't as thick (usually) as organic cotton. If the towel has coloration that means a natural dye was used.
Note that when you first get these towels it will take a few washings for them to reach full absorbency because of the natural oils in the cotton.
Organic Cotton Certification
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has specific regulations for organic certification that begin with the way the cotton is cultivated and ends with how its processed. In Europe the organization SKAL handles regulation.
On both sides of the world this means that growing organic cotton is more time and labor intensive, making it a little more costly. Nonetheless many people feel the results are well worth a few extra dollars.
Cost factors
Organic cotton bath towels are a little more expensive than commercially produced towels. A washcloth averages about $10 while a full size (30" x 64") towel runs in the neighborhood of $60.
Even so, if you compare those prices to that of say Turkish or Egyptian cotton towels, you'll see that the price for a good organic towel is very similar to other luxury bath towels.
Certified organic vs. Natural or Green cotton
Natural or Green cotton may be grown using fertilizers and pesticides. The reason for the term "natural" or "green" has to do with the manufacturing process. At that juncture natural and green cotton don't receive any additional chemical treatments.
Nonetheless this production process does not result in a truly organic product, and may result in allergic reactions for people with sensitive skin.
Caring for Organic Towels
Buyers of organic cotton bath towels should wash them in warm (140 degree) water with a little soap. The green household should use biodegradable detergent to keep the whole process ecologically centered.
Do not use any bleach or softeners on your towels – this can deter their softness. Finally, organic cotton is best hung to dry rather than using a dryer.
