On June 18th, Atapco Properties and NVR, Inc broke ground on Westmoore, the next phase of the Moorefield Station project to be associated with the Ashburn Metro station on WMATA's Silver Line expansion project. Loudoun Board of Supervisors members Chairman Scott York and Shawn Williams joined the Claude Moore Charitable Foundation (CMFC), members of the development and building team, members of the design and marketing team and the public to mark this important event.
Moorefield Station is a multi phase core based transit oriented development in Ashburn. Part of a long envisioned plan to bring rail transit to Loudoun, Moorefield Station creates cores of development density centered around a planned Metro station over a multi decade build out. At build out, Moorefield develops as a new city, similar to Reston, Virginia. The first phase of development, Moorefield Green, is currently being delivered by Toll Brothers, Inc. LPDA team members, Zac Lette and Amie Evans were a part of the initial design and engineering efforts for Moorefield Green while employed by Toll Brothers in 2004 and 2005.
In 2013 LPDA led a team of designers to represent Atapco's interest in developing Westmoore through a competitive bid to the CMFC, the land seller. This effort was to showcase architecture, landscape architecture and land planning to the CMFC as well as development and financial strategies for completion. Since that successful bid, LPDA has finalized design packages for supporting Dewberry, the civil engineer on site plan approvals for landscape architecture, development of landscape architecture for 3 signature park spaces, and development of a clubhouse recreation facility with Architectural Design Group (ADG). LPDA is also working the Laurie Matthews Marketing group to complete marketing strategies for the project and a Sign Development Plan application to Loudoun County.
We are very proud to be a part of this exciting project and helping our Clients: Atapco Properties and NVR realize the vision for this community.

Monitoring initiatives have grown significantly in number over the last few years.
While global reports are important tools, in fact, the global monitoring landscape is far more complex. Sector bottleneck analysis tools, supported by international agencies such as the World Bank's Water and Sanitation Program (WSP), UNICEF and others, are being used by countries to identify constraints hindering progress. Recent initiatives include:
Other well-established platforms such as the JMP are in the process of evolving as they consider their role after the end of the MDG period in 2015.
However, having a functioning national process in place is preferable to lots of different initiatives, which is a problem for governments. The timing of national data collection is not coordinated with global monitoring reporting, and the emphasis on aggregated regional and global reports means that too little data are fed back into country-level planning. Monitoring information and data are highly valued but the challenge is to provide a supportive framework to ensure information is consistent, reliable and leads to action.
The existence of SWA creates an unprecedented opportunity to develop a shared monitoring framework at a global level that could help resolve some of these pressing problems. To this end, the SWA Steering Committee recently formed a Task Team on the Global Monitoring Framework.
The Task Team seeks to develop a shared monitoring framework. The team has initially focused on two tasks:
The Global Monitoring Harmonization Task Team identified institutional analyses as a priority for harmonization, as many external agencies have supported them over the last decade. Though they take different forms, in general institutional analyses are designed by external support agencies to use available data to identify strengths and diagnose weaknesses in the institutional framework of a given country. They examine inputs to the sector and the enabling environment, assessing the extent to which such parameters as policy, strategy, finance, and human resources are in place. These analyses have been useful in assisting countries to gain greater understanding of their institutional challenges, and to identify bottlenecks and needed reforms
In the spirit of supporting the SWA Collaborative Behaviours, the Task Team has examined the issue of institutional analyses led by development partners and the context in which they have been used, as well as their relationship with government-initiated and government-led sector performance reviews. The paper presents an overview of this examination and offers a series of corresponding recommendations that seek to address the behaviours of external support agencies implementing institutional analyses and country governments in which institutional analyses are applied.

How to properly place an employee on FMLA12 November 2010
If an employee is eligible for FMLA coverage, you should place that person on FMLA leave. If you do not, she may not receive all of her rights and benefits under the law, and you cannot count her leave time against her 12-week entitlement.
Q: We have an employee who has been out of work for four weeks for a medical condition (supported by a doctor's note) and is now asking for another two weeks of sick leave. It is getting tough to find other employees to cover her shifts. She has not requested FMLA leave. Do we have to give her the additional leave?
A: If your organization is covered by the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the employee is eligible for FMLA leave, she is entitled to take up to 12 weeks of job-protected leave, assuming her medical condition meets the FMLA's serious health condition definition.

10 Tips To Promote Your Business Event
Written by Sanjay Sundarjee. 21 November 2014. Category: Business Events
Data released by Eventbrite shows that event registrations typically have two spikes - when the tickets first goes on sale and then the week that the event takes place. I've found that the period in between these two spikes is always the most challenging in getting event registrations. As many of you event organisers would have come to realise, people love to procrastinate and wait until the last minute to register for events!
Here are 10 tips that I've picked up from other event professionals and my own learnings for you to use to promote your event and beat this natural dip in the event registration lifecycle.
#1: Reach out to community & industry partners
During my time organising events in the IT industry, I often reached out to community and industry parters such as Microsoft and Oracle. I was able to leverage the relationships I had within those organisations, resulting in my events promoted to their customers by email, social media and their sales staff. In exchange for community & industry partners promoting your event, you could also offer discounts for the event or any other services to their members. And don't forget to set up tracking links to see where referrals are coming from!
#2: Set up tiered ticketing prices
We all know about offering Early Bird tickets to incentivise those who purchase event tickets in the first 1-2 weeks that they are released and the success this has on getting early sales. Taking this further, and avoiding the ticket sales lull in the middle, offer tiered ticketing prices in order to convince attendees to commit earlier. For example, by pricing Early Bird tickets at $70, General Admission at $90 and tickets purchased the day of the event at $110, people who might be on the fence about attending can be motivated to purchase if they know they'll be saving money. Trust me, it's a great feeling when you've sold enough tickets in advance and aren't in a state of panic the week of the event continuously monitoring how many tickets are being sold!
#3: Spread the word
The classic word of mouth marketing still works - just through different mediums! Hop onto blogs and forums that you are active in, such as your LinkedIn groups, and let people know about your event. My house rules are that the event must be relevant to their users and not to cross the line and become a spammer. And don't forget to encourage your team members to do the same!
#4: Focus on the benefits of your event
With everyone time poor these days, we're all conscious about what we're going to get out of events before registering for them. What that means is that you must focus on selling the benefits of attending your event. On your registration page and your promotions, include information on what attendees will take home, such as new knowledge or networking opportunities, workbooks, white papers, checklists or certificates of completion.
#5: Make registrations easy
There's nothing that potential attendees hate more than complex event registration forms that require them to fill out so much information that they feel like they are being interrogated! The less information asked, the better! Create a short, simple registration page on your website. Allow users to pay online if at all possible, and include a link to your privacy policy. An easy to use registration and ticketing platform that I'm a big fan of is Floktu.
#6: Increase social media activity during slow periods
From what I've observed, event organisers will mostly send out tweets and posts when tickets to their event first become available, and again the week before the event takes place. Now that you know the weeks in between are where ticket sales are the slowest, make this period your heaviest social media pushes. Let your social media audience know about any discounted ticketing, what they'll take home from the event or perhaps any competitions at the event.
#7: Advertise on your homepage
The most hits on your website will most likely be your homepage, so it's a good idea to showcase your event prominently on your homepage. Ensure that it is eye-catching and contains all the key information, such as a link to the online registration page.
#8: Write a press release
Have a think about who the types of people are that would find your event interesting and put together a list of the websites, magazines, newspapers and TV shows that they might browse, read or watch. Then put together a press release and distribute your press release to those media outlets that you have shortlisted. If there is someone affiliated with your event who is senior or well known, ask them for a quote about your event and include it in your press release.
#9: Use social media ads
From past events that I have organised, the two forms of online advertising that have brought in the most event registrations have been Facebook and LinkedIn ads. What works so well with these two platforms is that they allow you to tailor who you want the ad to be shown to. For example, with LinkedIn ads, you can tailor the audience's seniority, age, gender, geographical location, industry and even what company they work at. So which one should you use? If your event is for business folk, use LinkedIn advertising. If the event is for consumers, then use Facebook advertising.
#10: Set up a promotional calendar
Sometimes, I find one of the easiest ways to get results is being organised! Create a Google calendar that lists all your promotional activities for the event in one place. Categorise the activities by the type of channel, such as "Email", "Social Media", "Partner". Share the calendar amongst your team and assign activities to them. The most valuable part of creating this is that you'll now be able to pick out the holes in your calendar and see which marketing channels you aren't using to your full capacity for your event.

Police investigating a serious injury collision near Verwood are appealing for witnesses and anyone with information to come forward.
At around 6.05pm on Sunday 3 January, a serious injury road traffic collision occurred on Edmondsham Road.
A red Ford Fiesta travelling away from Verwood left the road and collided with a tree.
A 15-year-old local girl, who was travelling in the front passenger seat, was trapped inside the car and had to be cut free by Dorset Fire and Rescue Service. She was taken by ambulance to Southampton General Hospital with serious injuries.
Her condition is described as life-threatening. Her family have been informed and are being supported by specially-trained officers.
The driver of the Fiesta, an 18-year-old local man, sustained minor injuries.
The road was closed for several hours to allow collision investigators to examine the scene.
Police Constable Kevin Adlem, of Dorset Police's Traffic Unit, said: "I am appealing to anyone who witnessed the collision, or who saw the Fiesta being driven immediately before the incident, to please call me on 101."

Oliver Queen and Black Canary Go Full Vigilante In New "Arrow" Photos
"Arrow" is set to expand its DC Comics connection for its sophomore season with a number of concepts from the comics assisting in building the show's world. However, one of the most anticipated concepts coming to "Arrow's" second season was the Black Canary, portrayed by actress Caity Lotz. Series star Stephen Amell took to social networks Facebook and Twitter to reveal the first look at Oliver Queen alongside Black Canary in full vigilante garb. The photos come from the series' fourth episode, where Lotz makes her debut as Black Canary.
"Black Canary's costume is very much in line with the Arrow's and the Huntress' costumes from last year in terms of it feeling grounded and of our world," Executive Producer Marc Guggenheim told CBR in October. "We've got Bronze Tiger in episode 2, and he's not wearing a "costume" per se. He's wearing a leather jacket that has nods to the idea of Bronze Tiger, but I still think it's a very grounded approach. … I always want to leave it up to the audience what we're doing, but from my perspective, we haven't radically changed the tone of the show. When you talk about bringing Black Canary on or Barry Allen, it gives the impression that we're going more superhero than we were last year, but I don't necessarily think that's the case."
Plus, Guggenheim and Executive Producer Andrew Kreisberg were guests on DC Comics All-Access web series, revealing that "Fringe" alum Seth Gable would reprise his role as Count Vertigo.
"Arrow" airs Wednesdays on the CW

They followed through on everything, kept on schedule and were very attentive to keeping the rest of our home neat and tidy. Even long after our project was over – 3 years later – we had a problem with the sky tube they installed. They came out within the week and fixed it free of charge. I'd use them again in a heartbeat.Dawn H.

Are you interested in learning how you can build a portfolio of real estate without ever qualifying for a bank loan and for very little money out of pocket?
If you are currently a real estate investor or looking to become one, you must understand the method of purchasing properties "Subject To" the existing financing.
What is "Subject To"
When you purchase a property "Subject To" you are purchasing it subject to the existing mortgage that is already in place.
You are not assuming the loan you are taking over the responsibility of making the payments.
The terms on the current mortgage or note do not change during this process.
When you buy "subject to" the owner deeds the property over to you but they remain on the loan.
Why Would Any Seller Agree To This?
If you are not familiar with subject to real estate investing I am sure you are asking yourself right now, "Why would any seller in their right mind agree to deed me their home and stay on the loan?"
There are actually many different scenarios that may influence a homeowner to be open to subject to.
All of these reasons usually stem from an unfavorable situation that the homeowner is faced with. Usually they do not have the time or money to sell the property in a traditional manner.
Situations that may lead to a seller looking for alternative methods of selling their property:
Loss of job
Death of a spouse
No Equity
Tired landlord
Top Benefits of Subject To Investing
Can acquire with very little money out of pocket
Do not have to qualify for bank loans
Your credit score does not matter
Can close quickly
Can takeover great low interest financing
Not legally bound by a loan in your name (You are responsible for making payment though)
Due On Sale Clause
Most bank loans today have what is called a "Due on Sale" clause in them.
This clause is a right the bank has to call the entire amount owed to them due at once. This is not a law.
Many people have been taking over loans subject to over the last 30 years.
While the bank can call the loan due it is extremely rare that this happens.
Banks are in the business of making money. Why would they want to call a loan due if it has had a history of being paid on time and they are collecting interest on it each and every month?
Lenders would much rather get paid than pay legal fees to foreclose on someone who can't pay in full if the loan was called due at once.
Lenders do not like to have non-performing loans on their books either.
Where to Find Subject To Deals
The key to finding great opportunities for subject to deals is to find great lists to send direct mail to.
There are many great list providers out there that can supply you with lists of homeowners or investors that are going through divorce, evictions, probate, bankruptcy, foreclosure, delinquent on taxes, etc.
These list providers also have options for you to further filter the lists by aspects such as location, type of housing, amount of bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, equity, date purchased, etc.
The best option for those looking to acquire subject to's for very little money out of pocket is to locate properties that have very little equity.
Motivated seller's that have little to no equity may not be able to sell using traditional methods.
These seller's may not be able to afford paying real estate commissions, closing costs, repairs, etc. They are stuck in a tough situation where you may be their best option.
Typically, loans that originated, or were refinanced, in the last 1-5 years will have the highest likelihood of not having much equity. This really depends on the current market situations though.
Note that you can still find great subject to deals that have a great deal of equity and where the loan was originated over 5 years ago.
For these properties you may have to fine tune your negotiating skills and be a little more creative.
Seller's will most likely want a good portion of their equity back. It is up to you to think of creative ways to repay that equity rather than a lump sum right away.
There you have it. You are now aware of a very powerful method of acquiring real estate. Add it to your real estate investing toolbox to really add a boost to your portfolio.
Here's to your success!

Bread and Water for Africa® is proud to announce the completion of Phase I of its bakery project in Bangolan, Cameroon. The bakery is the second initiative in which we have partnered with Hope Services of Cameroon. This community-based initiative will allow 100 AIDS widows to provide for themselves and their children through the baking and sale of bread in their own neighborhood.
The facility was inaugurated on February 7, 2013, in a ceremony attended by the mayor of Bangolan and other civil authorities, religious and traditional leaders, Hope Services Board Members, and His Royal Highness the Fon of Bangolan (the local chief).
Although the bakery portion of the project is complete, the full project will grow to include a full multi-purpose skill center, with training programs in advanced bread-making skills, soap making, oil processing, counseling, and more. The eventual expansion will allow for greater participation of the community and access to employment opportunities.
It is a true representation of Bread and Water for Africa®'s mission to create a brighter future for Africa's children through the creation of job opportunities that break the cycle of poverty that so many remain embedded in.
Widows involved in the bakery project collect their baked goods for sale. 100 widows now participate in the program and can provide for themselves and their children through the baking and sale of bread in Bangolan.

I recently became obsessed with finding the graveyard where Rev. James Beck and his wife Lucy are buried. I was convinced that it was somewhere near Crane Rd. since I'd seen a reference to it being on Rt. 744. So I diligently searched the county GIS site for any tiny parcels that might be a cemetery and even made calls to landowners in that area…all to no avail.
Having found in an old article the name of the family who owned the property in the 1960's, I went to Chatham thinking I could easily discover a deed that would tell me where that land was or possibly even a map with the graveyard indicated on it. I did not, however I did find a map from 1906 of the "Beck Tract" which I knew would be the right land. Now I had a map but no idea how to place this tract on the face of the earth, as there were no good landmarks or roads shown on it. Finally, after reading through several more old deeds, I ran across one that described the land as being about two miles southwest of Mt. Hermon Church. This didn't align with where I was searching at all.
I finally realized that there is another part of Rt. 744, present-day Ridgecrest Drive, and that is where I should have been looking all along. Once I looked there, I saw that the present-day land parcels line up near perfectly with the old map. The Beck Tract is outlined in red on the modern day GIS image, with the graveyard indicated by the white diamond. After all that digging, the graveyard was found only about 100 feet from Ridgecrest Drive. And it's even indicated as a cemetery on the county GIS map, even though the parcel outline is off substantially.
Click here for a little history on some troubles between the church and the reverend.
Pictured here are the gravestones of Rev. James Beck and his wife Lucy and an overview image of the cemetery. He was an early preacher in the Strawberry Primitive Baptist Church. Lucy's maiden name was Dickenson. They married in Pittsylvania County in 1817.

"Education is not preparation for life, education is life itself" – John Dewey
I have always wondered what education is…. Is it the 1×1 or the A for Apple I learnt in my primary school or the 2x+x=3x, I learnt in the secondary level. Well no matter how far the internal ravings of my mind take me, I have to further my "education", get into a good school, get a job and make it big in life. All in that order.
The dilemma faced before scaling through the other hurdles in life is getting admitted into the university, especially in a country like Nigeria where JAMB is known to "jam" a lot of people several times. Thank God for the initiative taken to give students the opportunity to pick a University, a polytechnic and a college of education of their choice.
Getting into the university is a life lesson on its own, one we must all be ready to learn. We all set our sights on the bigger picture of campus life and after, but what about getting into this campus to begin with. Asking ourselves the right questions help in making things easier and free for us. Questions like:
What is my preferred course of study?
Science students have this mentality of being a doctor, and engineer, etc, a commercial student wants to be a big shot banker, an art student wants to be a world famous artist, or artiste or a movie star. There is the place of passion in life and what you think you're capable of or want to study. We often times tend to develop or realize our passions later, I know I did.
What do you intend to study? How good would it be for you and of what benefit is it to you in the long run. Those are the first series of questions you need to ask yourself.
Next is the problem of what school offers the best in that field of study. What do you gain by going to that particular school? Would there be opportunities for you to explore? What are the subjects you need to have done in your UTME and WAEC?
The internet is an abyss of information, all you need do is type in the name of the school you are setting your sights on, get as much information as you can so you know what you're getting into and what you need to do.
If possible, visit the school before you apply and get pamphlets/info packages. Meet with people in the department you are applying to, ask questions, know what you're getting yourself into.
Most importantly, do not make the mistake a lot of young people make. Thousands of people have their eyes set on big schools like the University of Lagos, University of Ibadan and so on forgetting that there are other schools that offer great learning environments and packages in your intended field of study.
I know of a young lady that picked Unilag three times and got in the third time, and it wasn't even for her preferred course of study. Why sit at home for years in pursuit of entrance into one school when you can set your sights on other institutions that offer as much quality if not more of the knowledge you wish to acquire.

Medinfo: Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Medinfo s patient information on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a conditionwhich causes the intestines to be over sensitive. irritable bowel syndrome.
: index search health books site map Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a condition which causes the intestines (or bowels, or gut) to be over sensitive. This can cause a variety of abdominal and bowel symptoms. There is no cure, but most people can, with the help of their doctor, learn to control and live with their irritable bowel. These are the main symptoms that occur, and it seems that the bowel is more sensitive to outside events. Thus, in the way that someone with sensitive skin comes out in a rash when stressful events occur, a person with irritable bowel syndrome finds that when they are stressed it is their bowels that "come out in sympathy". This means that symptoms may be worse when under psychological stress or when being physically stressed eg by an infection, exhaustion or other conditions. The problem may also irritated by certain foods and drinks (which vary from person to person). Nobody really knows why IBS exists, and as there are such a variety of manifestations, it may be that there is more than one cause. We do know that it is very common, affecting as many as one person in five.

: WEB SERVICES: LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) Irritable bowel syndrome, a chronic condition believed to plague 20 percent of the adult population in developed countries, may be caused by too much bacteria in the small intestine, researchers said Wednesday. It was the first time a potential cause for the disease has been identified and could lead to a radical shift in treatment, according to the lead investigator in the study.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome--A Poorly Understood Disorder
irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a nonlife-threatening gastrointestinaldisorder resulting from inadequate flow of blood to the colon.
: Table of Contents Irritable Bowel Syndrome: A Poorly Understood Disorder By Carol Lewis It's the most common gastrointestinal disorder seen by doctors. Abdominal pain, cramps, gas, bloating, diarrhea and constipation are among the symptoms. For years, many thought it was a psychological condition, rather than a physical one. But the discomfort and inconvenience that result from the gut-wrenching pain of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are very real. "It feels like you're giving birth over and over again," says Hope Marcus of Miami, Fla. Indeed, people with IBS can't stay out of the bathroom or their stomachs feel like they're tied in knots. Their bowel movements are either frequent and runny or sporadic and unusually hard. Mike Hoffman of West Palm Beach, Fla., says his intestines feel like they're constantly twisting and untwisting, "as though they're being wrung out like a dishrag." Jeffrey Roberts of Hallandale, Fla., says the sudden recurring knife-like pain "doubles you over," while others claim it brings you to your knees. Some liken the pain to a charley horse, but in the gutpain that is horrendous and then intensifies. "And don't picture a diarrhea attack happening in the privacy of your own clean bathroom," says Cynthia Huschle of Tolland, Conn. "Picture it in the bathroom at work, the store, the movie theater, the park, the baseball stadium, or the port-o-potty at the fair."
CNN.com - New Hope For Those With Irritable Bowel Syndrome - May 24, 2001
: CNN Medical Unit ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) The first effective medication for women with a type of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) could be on the market soon. The drug, called Zelnorm, improves a number of symptoms and is safe according to researchers attending the Digestive Disease Week conference in Atlanta. "When taken twice a day we saw relief of abdominal pain and discomfort, bloating and constipation," said Dr. Martin Lefkowitz with Novartis Pharma, the drug's maker. Zelnorm is a new type of medication that activates or stimulates the serotonin 4 receptor. RESOURCES Learn more about irritable bowel syndrome "The drug increases movement, so it helps those with irritable bowel syndrome characterized by constipation," said Dr. Christine Frissora, who reviewed the safety and efficacy data on Zelnorm at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University. "If you don't give the drug to the right patient, it could make their condition worse." It's estimated that 15 million Americans suffer from IBS. In some cases the symptoms are so debilitating that patients are unable to work, socialize and in some cases are afraid or embarrassed to leave their homes. One-third of the cases are characterized by constipation, another third by diarrhea and the other third suffer from both. Zelnorm is designed to help those with IBS characterized by constipation.

Talk Papers are subject to change as more information becomes available. T00-10 Print Media: 301-827-6242 February 9, 2000 Consumer Inquiries:888-INFOFDA FDA APPROVES IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME TREATMENT FOR WOMEN The FDA today approved alosetron hydrochloride, a new medication to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in women whose predominant bowel symptom is diarrhea. The following may be used to answer questions. IBS is a functional abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract that is estimated to affect up to 15% of the US population. People with this condition experience chronic or recurrent abdominal pain, irregular bowel movements including diarrhea and constipation, and the sudden, urgent need to go to the bathroom. It is three times more common in women than men. Like existing IBS therapies, alosetron treats the symptoms associated with the syndrome. Although how the drug works is not completely understood, alosetron slows intestinal movement and may provide relief by targeting the underlying neurological activity associated with the condition.

Learn about irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) including what irritable bowel syndrome(IBS) is, causes, symptoms, complications, how IBS is diagnosed and
: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common ailments of the bowel (intestines) and affects an estimated 15% of persons in the US. The term, irritable bowel, is not a particularly good one since it implies that the bowel is responding irritably to normal stimuli, and this may or may not be the case. The several names for IBS, including spastic colon, spastic colitis, and mucous colitis, attest to the difficulty of getting a descriptive handle on the ailment. Moreover, each of the other names is itself as problematic as the term IBS. IBS is best described as a functional disease. The concept of functional disease is particularly useful when discussing diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The concept applies to the muscular organs of the gastrointestinal tract; the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, gallbladder, and colon. What is meant by the term, functional, is that either the muscles of the organs or the nerves that control the organs are not working normally, and, as a result, the organs do not function normally. The nerves that control the organs include not only the nerves that lie within the muscles of the organs but also the nerves of the spinal cord and brain.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome ; Which Brain Is Irritable
Information and discussion concerning IBS, its causes, clinical features and management.
: Irritable Bowel Syndrome: Which Brain is Irritable? About the author: Dr . Minocha is a practicing gastroenterologist and author of "Natural Stomach Care: Treating and Preventing Digestive Disorders with Best of Eastern and Western Therapies" I rritable bowel syndrome (IBS) implies that your bowels are "irritable". This is a clinical diagnosis for many patients with intestinal problems after no abnormality is found on various blood, stools, x ray or scope tests of the bowel. In spite of the normal tests, the patient continues to have tummy pains as well as irregular bowels as constipation and/or diarrhea. Frequently, the patient is led to believe that there is something wrong with his/her brain. Is this true? Well, yes and no! No, it's not your brain in the skull. Recent research indicates that intestines are controlled by its own network of interconnected nerve cells. These connections and their "messages" are affected by neurochemical transmitters, which are similar to the ones found in the "big brain". Unlike the brain in the skull, which is the major part of central nervous system (CNS), our intestines are controlled by an essentially autonomous enteric nervous system (ENS). Think of this system of two brains in the body as the federal government , which only has a peripheral control over how any state government, in this case ENS, conducts its routine business in its own state (bowels)! However, the two brains do interact in a lot of ways, perhaps a lot more so in IBS, thus affecting each other. For example, mental stress can "worsen" IBS, whereas inability to find a satisfactory solution to IBS increases stress.

Virtual Hospital: University Of Iowa Family Practice Handbook, Fourth Edition: G
The general features of IBS from the family practice handbook of the University of Iowa.
: General Features History . Patients often describe a long history of chronic or intermittent diarrhea, which usually starts before age 50 and is exacerbated by anxiety or stress. Diarrhea is often worse in the morning and after meals. These patients often complain of a sensation of incomplete evacuation, distention, passage of mucus, or associated abdominal, pelvic, and back pain. Pain is relieved by evacuation. Alternating constipation, diarrhea, and bloating is typical. Diarrhea is not bloody unless accompanied by an anorectal lesion such as hemorrhoids or a fissure. Systemic symptoms or weight loss are not present. Nutritional status is not compromised. Proposed criteria for diagnosis of IBS are found in Box 5-1 Etiology . The following factors are believed to play a mechanistic role in IBS and more than one may operate in a given individual: (1) abnormal motility, (2) abnormal visceral perception, (3) psychologic factors, (4) luminal compounds (lactose, short chain fatty acids, food allergens, and bile acids), which may irritate the bowel.

: What medicines are used to treat IBS? You may have heard IBS referred to as "spastic colon" or "spastic bowel." Sometimes IBS is confused with inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis . But IBS is not a disease and does not cause inflammation, bleeding, damage to the bowel, or cancer or other serious diseases. It is called a functional disorder, which means that there is no sign of disease when the colon is examined, but the bowel doesn't work as it should. The cause of IBS is not known, and as yet there is no cure. Often IBS is just a mild annoyance, but for some people it can be disabling. They may be unable to go to social events, to go out to a job, or to travel even short distances. Most people with IBS, however, are able to control their symptoms through diet, stress management, and medicines. Who gets IBS?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Quackwatch Home Page. irritable bowel syndrome. Stephen Barrett, MD.irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) also called irritable or spastic
: Quackwatch Home Page Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) also called irritable or spastic colon is a common functional intestinal disorder characterized by recurrent abdominal discomfort and abnormal bowel function. The discomfort often begins after eating and goes away after a bowel movement. The symptoms can include cramps, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and a feeling of incomplete emptying. IBS occurs in about one in five Americans, more commonly in women, and more often at times of emotional stress. It usually begins in late adolescence or early adult life and rarely starts after the age of 50. In severe cases, it can result in missed work days and curtailment of social activities. Although effective help is available, many people with IBS are too embarrassed, pessimistic, or afraid to seek medical care. Even worse, some people who consult a doctor receive insufficient guidance and conclude that nothing further can be done for them. During normal digestion, foods are broken down in the stomach and small intestine so that their nutrients can be absorbed into the body. Undigested or partially digested portions mostly in liquid form then enter the large intestine (colon) where most of the water is reabsorbed. Movement through the intestines results from peristalsis, a wavelike contraction of muscles in the intestinal walls that propel their contents forward. When all is well, the end result is stool that is solid but soft enough to be excreted easily.

4) Unless the player running the DF asks you to fight empowers, fight the dragon. The organizer should pick who fights the empowers. This is a team sport - the scoreboard doesn't give you anything extra, but focusing on it instead of cooperating with the team will cost your guild, Don't be a dick.
5) If you are playing a support class (except for a Conq GF), do not fight empowers unless the organizer doesn't have ANYBODY else and asks you to. That is especially true for a DC - if you're not buffing and debuffing at the dragon, you're costing the team DPS - you can contribute 10 times as much by buffing the other players than by trying to fight empowers.
6) If your guild is "jumping," that means that they will do one dragonflight in the current stronghold and then change to another stronghold for the next. You switch back and forth between strongholds to speed it up. AFTER a dragonflight finishes, you have to wait for the wizard to show up again before you can start the next one. if you jump to another stronghold, he is already there. When jumping, if you have VIP signpost, ask if anybody in your group needs to use it and let them go first (it vanishes when you use it), then you go last. If you don't have VIP signpost, ask if anybody in your group does and go with them, or else get back to the travel point as quick as you can!
7) Use your buffs - Use scrolls and potions of dragon slaying, use regular potions and food buffs. Use overload enchants for killing dragons. You can go to the Poison Clan stronghold to get the mark 2 overloads. These will make you much more effective without doing any extra work! use the
8) Don't camp out. A stronghold instance can hold 40 players. If you are sitting around at the cmapfire instead of fighting a dragon, you're cheating the guilds running the DF. Don't be a dick.

If you're trying to get an edge in stock trading, it's useful to know what the big hedge funds and brokerages are doing. This allows you to trade with the big institutions instead of against them.
In order to this, one of the best indicators you can use is volume-weighted average price or "VWAP" for short.
So here's how to use VWAP to get an edge in stock trading.
What is the VWAP stock-trading indicator?
The VWAP indicator is a lot like a moving average. It computes the average price over time. But unlike a plain, old moving average, it is weighted based on the volume of trading done at each price point. So if a lot of people are buying and selling a share at a particular price, it will tell you this information.
A lot of hedge funds and brokerages tell their traders to try to fill orders at the VWAP price. So these traders are judged by their bosses based on how close they can hit this target. As a result, you can get a pretty good idea which way they are going to push the price by watching the VWAP indicator.
VWAP on particular time frames.
The VWAP indicator does not work on the daily charts or above. This is because of the way that it's calculated. In addition, this indicator is less useful on longer time frames than it is on shorter ones because the candles tend to only depart from the VWAP line on shorter time-frames.
So if you like to scalp or day-trade, this is the indicator for you.
How to use this indicator.
VWAP shows up as a horizontal line that moves across the screen as the price progresses. When the price is above this line, it means that the price is currently above it's average weighted by volume. This means that institutions are likely trying to fill sell orders.
When the price is below this line, it means the price is below its average weighted by volume. In this case, institutions are likely trying to fill buy orders.
The best way to use this indicator is to look for short entries when the price is above VWAP and look for long entries when the price is below VWAP.
But you want to use candlesticks as a confirming indicator. If you see a bullish candlestick pattern while looking for longs, then you enter the trade. If you see a bearish candlestick pattern while looking for shorts, then you enter the trade.
Here's an example using the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD).
I've labeled three candlestick patterns on this chart. The first one is a shooting star while price is above the VWAP.
The second is an ambiguous pattern above VWAP. But this red candle has a long upper-wick, and it occurred right after a big move up. So it could be interpreted as a very weird looking shooting star.
The third one is a hammer while price was below VWAP.
Each of these candles signaled that the price was about to revert to VWAP. And that's exactly what it did.
If you're tired of trading against the big institutions, use VWAP to put yourself on the right side of your trades.

Lazy S'S Farm Nursery
& New plus Time Tested
Shrubs and Trees
Enter our Online Store
S'S Farm Nursery is a husband/wife owned business in operation
for 44 years, north of Charlottesville, VA. We
offer over 2000+ varieties of Perennials, Shrubs and Trees.
We have one of
the largest retail selections of plants in the Country. You'll love our selection of
Unusual & New Perennials, Shrubs and Trees
plus the Time Tested Classics
unique in that we are a Retail Mail Order Nursery that grows all (and
propagates most) of our own plants and then sells them directly to
the public. You will see a difference in plants that aren't mass
produced but grown the old fashioned way, with loving hands instead of
machines and with scissors and pruners rather than
Growth Regulators
and lots
of chemicals.
the Nursery's Name...
When the original owners, Terri and
Pete Sheuchenko, the
parents of the current owners, had a
sheep/cattle ranch in California, their Brand for Lazy S'S Ranch was sideways or 'Lazy'
Having a recognizable brand is
important when raising livestock to identify stock. When they moved to Virginia, they
used the same name but changed Ranch to Farm, since Ranch sounded a little
strange in Virginia! If you look closely at the
logo at left,
you'll see the sideways S's, shown here in white with a black leaf at the
bottom to make the old sheep/cattle 'brand' a little more nursery-like.
In answer to the occasional
question about our name:
"No -- the Sheuchenkos were a lovely, very conservative older
Ukrainian couple and the possible 'play on words' or naughty 'sound alike' term for
Lazy S'S
didn't occur to them until their first Halloween here when the sign out
front was altered by high school pranksters!!" :
We operate as Mail Order Only.
Public Gardens
From Florida to Alaska, East to West -
these beautiful gardens are where some of our plants can be
in Low Places!
Us, our children and grandchildren!

Gardening Friends,

Viva Amiga is a wonderful look at the the history of the platform, the people who built it, and the users who loved it. The opening title says it all: "One Amazing Computer. One chance to save the company. One chance to win the PC wars." This message sets the stage nicely for a dramatic and passionate tale.
You can watch the documentary online, but it isn't free.
Very few amiga things is free, and that might be why the software plattform is still alive.
Strange and counterintuitive as it might be. Buying basic functionality feels good on the amiga, whilst buying anything beyond VLC (and yes i donate paltry amount as requested) feels dirty on the PC.
I would still rather pay for a native player than use VLC for free on the amiga plattform. On my wishlist is a modern port of GoBe productive and PersonalStudio for the amiga.
Edited 2017-01-10 03:14 UTC
GoBe and personal studio could save in ms office form and it supplied things that windows versions of microsoft office could not do until 2008 with the floating integrated objects.
Personal studio is great for another reason, it might seem like another glorified "Windows moviemaker" but it is not. It is a full featured auditing system for cheap. Yes the amiga had better rendering times but PersonalStudio did most of the amiga videotoaster and more.
let me preface this by saying that as an os enthusiast, I have dreamed about Amiga OS 4 forever. I never used an Amiga during its day. I got a glimpse via Amikit, and I thought it was cool and wished to explore a more modern version with more modern functionality.
So I've been running OS 4.1 in UAE, which I never could get to work on the mac, but somehow it works perfectly in WinUAE in VMWare. And my thoughts are.....
wow, that was really underwhelming. Imagine a slightly cool os with almost nothing to make it usable as a desktop os. The Amiga ecosphere is barren. It's like webOS when Palm was still around, better looking than Android, but no apps. The QNX demo floppy back in the day offered as much functionality as a desktop os as Amiga 4 does.
So after wanting to use this system for a long time, after finally getting to do so I don't understand two things. One, why didn't they open all the source and let the internet take over with the evolution of Amiga? Two, why is there so much perceived interest in this after all these years? There is literally nothing to see here folks. NeXT provided a much richer user experience, a better apps ecosphere, pseudo unix compatibility, better everything on every level. I wish there was the sort of interest in keeping NeXT alive as there is for Amiga, tepid as that interest may be. NeXT is certainly more deserving IMO.
I enjoyed the Viva Amiga doco. I think From Bedrooms to Billions was nicer.
Typing this from my OS4.1u1 FE PPC system I'd have to strongly disagree with the guy that thinks it's barely functional. Lets see. I'm sitting here, I've an Mp3 cranking, I've got several windows and four screens running, currently doing a build of some software I've been contributing to, and thought I'd fire up a browser because IRC is a bit slow , and poodle over here to see what's going on. Earlier I was watching a dvd.
Sounds like a pretty function desktop to me.
I think you need to investigate OS4 depot, AmiNet and do some google searching. Try an IRC channel or six. Simply installing the O/S and decrying 'zOMGF! So boring! It can't do anything! it's less than the QNX demo" .. makes you seem like you have the attention span of a Gen-Y/Millenial.
of course I went to os4depot, the first thing I did was install Jack. Sorry, there just isn't much going on on the Amiga, compared to what was available as a NeXT user. It compares far less favorably to mac.
It's easier to list the things Amiga OS 4.1 can do than all the things it can't. Having an mp3 player and an IRC client is not a real big selling point unless you're 15, so go ahead and mention the quake port too. Can I watch Netflix and Hulu on an Amiga? Is there a productivity suite on Amiga? Can I manage and run virtual machines on one? Is there a media server for Amiga? Can I cast/airplay from one to my home theater processor? The list goes on and on. These are all things I can do on the mac. Or on a linux box.

Open Skies at home in sprints
OCEANPORT, N.J. - Trainer Tim Hills briefly considered wheeling Open Skies back on short rest for the Grade 3 Monmouth Oaks on Aug. 9.
"The race setup wasn't ideal and the timing, running back in one week, certainly wasn't ideal," Hills said.
Hills found a more favorable spot Sunday at Monmouth Park for the versatile New Jersey-bred in the $70,000 Miss Woodford Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at six furlongs.
Open Skies has already shown she can effectively run long or short against open or statebred company on the turf or main track.
Hills believes her future is sprinting.
"Her most impressive race was a seven-eighths win at Gulfstream," Hills said. "She really handles the turns well. That's her greatest strength. That's where she's able to break races open. I'd have to say her greatest strength is as a one-turn sprinter."
The Miss Woodford nicely filled a gap in her schedule until the $60,000 Eleven North Handicap against New Jersey-bred fillies and mares here Sept. 20.
"We looked at other spots at Saratoga and Delaware Park, but this looked like the best fit," Hills said.
As usual, Joe Bravo will ride.
A Little Gem was an easy winner in her season debut in slop here July 24, her first race for trainer Eddie Plesa Jr. She is unbeaten in three starts at Monmouth, including the Sorority Stakes last September.
"She looks great and she's doing great," Plesa said. "I can't say the slop really helped her last time, but she certainly has a fondness for this racetrack."
Pablo Fragoso rides.
Robby Albarado, riding Hystericalady in the Grade 2 Molly Pitcher Stakes later on the card, picked up the mount on Morakami.
Sprinkler malfunction soaks turf
The skies were clear and there wasn't a hint of rain, but the two grass races on Monmouth's Friday card came off the turf when a malfunctioning sprinkler head soaked a portion of the course overnight.
A team of four workers spent most the afternoon trying to dry the wet patch at the top of the stretch with leaf blowers.
Several jockeys and management members inspected the area after the second race and determined the course would not be usable Saturday when there were three grass races scheduled, including two stakes: the Omnibus and the Junior Champion.
Both will be run on the main track. The Junior Champion remained at one mile, but the Omnibus was shortened from 1 3/8 miles to 1 1/4 miles.
The race office took grass entries for Sunday's card, anticipating a resolution of the problem by then.
A similar sprinkler problem July 31 also wiped out grass racing.
Environmental regulators fine track
In another water-related issue, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection levied a $140,000 fine on Monmouth for allegedly discharging untreated waste water into a nearby creek last week.
The problem of runoff has been a long-running issue as the track's storm-water system has a history of overflowing, especially during heavy rain. The runoff spills into the Branchport Creek, which flows into the Shrewsbury River.
Monmouth has taken a number of corrective actions, including replacement of gutters and drains on the backstretch.
* Jockeys Carlos Marquez Jr. (three days) and Janice Blake-Baeza (five days) will both serve suspensions starting Wednesday for careless riding infractions.
