The Yankees are one of three teams that have talked to the Mets concerning outfielder Mike Cameron, The Post has learned.
Poised to improve their up-and-down club, the Yankees are looking to upgrade their outfield alignment and have expressed an interest in the 32-year-old Cameron, who would move into center field and make a full-time left fielder out of Hideki Matsui when his twisted right ankle allows him to play the outfield again.
According to a person familiar with the Mets' thinking, the Yankees, Orioles and Padres have interest in Cameron, who has missed the past four games due to a knee problem.
How the Yankees would accommodate the Mets for Cameron wasn't known, but the Mets have made it clear they don't want Tony Womack in return. The Padres may have an interest in Womack to play second.
The Yankees may have to part with Robinson Cano or Chien-Ming Wang, something GM Brian Cashman really doesn't want to do.
"I am having conversations, 'tis the season," Cashman said before last night's 9-6 win over the Cubs at Yankee Stadium. "We will see what's out there. The talent level is here. I am not looking to trade prospects for veterans, but if we run into something that makes sense . . ."
Cameron is in the middle season of a three-year, $19.5 million deal and makes $7.3 million this season.
A healthy Cameron certainly would make sense for the Yankees. He would stabilize the outfield and put Bernie Williams into the DH mix.
Because the Orioles are in the hunt for Cameron, the Yankees may have to overpay for him simply to keep the O's from running away with the AL East. Baltimore, which lost to Colorado 2-1 last night, is five games up on the Yankees.
From the moment the Mets signed Carlos Beltran this offseason, Cameron has been expendable. He moved to right field but is out of position there, and the Mets have Victor Diaz to replace him.

At this point, we've been eating Paleo for 6 weeks, weighing, measuring, and tracking our food for 5 weeks, and targeting specific macronutrient intake for 4 weeks. Hopefully you're experiencing some benefits in the form of improved body composition, better performance, and/or improved sense of health. At this point, I'd like to ask you to "scale up".
When we started, we selected scaling options on the Paleo and Macro scales. I'd like you to revisit these scaling options, and select one that matches your preferences for the final four weeks (continuing doing what you're doing is also an option). Some of you will be competing in the Open, and "in season" is no time to be calorie restricted, so choose a Macro target that supports recovery and performance (if you've been trying to lose fat and want to shift to fueling performance or recovery, add 100 calories to your daily target per week, until you get back to your baseline intake, or start gaining weight). Some of you are getting great results from incorporating more unprocessed foods in your diet, and for you I'd like to suggest removing some of the non-Paleo things that are still part of your routine, or even trying 100% Paleo for the final four weeks. Finally, some of you have been really diligent about being 100% Paleo, and for you I'd like to suggest considering a thoughtful reintroduction of foods you'd like to have in your life going forward.
One strategy for Paleo maintenance is to eat roughly 85% Paleo - meaning you eat consistent with your goals, but allow some non-Paleo things in roughly three meals per week. Another strategy is to pursue modified Paleo - where the bulk of your calories come from Paleo sources, but you allow for specific exceptions, like cream in your coffee, rice a few times a week, protein powders, or something similar. As you reintroduce non-Paleo items, pay attention to how you feel. You may notice a return of things you had always considered normal, but had gone away during the time you were eating pure Paleo (breakouts are a good example). If this is the case, you may want to consider keeping the offending item out of your diet. If you notice anything major, I'd highly suggest discussing it with your doctor.

By Susan Cornwell
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - An unofficial adviser to Hillary Clinton when she was U.S. Secretary of State told her during the 2011 rebellion that ousted Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi that history had "vindicated" her and the "successful strategy" of the United States, emails released on Monday showed.
Sidney Blumenthal, a longtime Clinton ally and friend, heaped praise on her in the emails while making snide remarks about lower-level White House officials whom Blumenthal apparently feared would soft pedal what he considered to be a moment of U.S. triumph during the NATO-led intervention.
The emails were released by the House of Representatives' Select Committee on Benghazi, which is investigating the September 11, 2012 attacks on U.S. facilities in Benghazi in which Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed.
The panel is looking at Blumenthal's memos about Libya because Blumenthal emailed them to Clinton in the months before and after the attacks. Most of Blumenthal's emails were among 850 pages of Clinton's messages related to Libya that the State Department released to the public last month.
Clinton is now a candidate for the Democratic nomination to run for president in the November 2016 election, and Democrats say Republicans leading the Benghazi probe are politically motivated to scrutinize her correspondence.
Blumenthal handed over some additional correspondence before testifying behind closed doors to the panel last week. But he told reporters that he had "shed no light" on the attacks during his testimony because he had no first hand knowledge of them.
His emails show, however, that during the Libyan uprising, Blumenthal was showering Clinton with information, some of it passed on from a former U.S. intelligence official.
"First, brava! This is a historic moment and you will be credited for realizing it," Blumenthal wrote to Clinton on Aug. 22, 2011, at a time when Libyan rebels had surrounded Gaddafi's compound, without finding the dictator.
"This is a very big moment historically and for you. History will tell your part in it. You are vindicated," Blumenthal wrote.
He said that whenever Gaddafi was removed - and he was - Clinton should be sure to emphasize the "successful strategy" of the United States.
"Be aware that some may attempt to justify the flamingly stupid 'leading from behind' phrase, junior types on the NSC (National Security Council) imagining their cleverness," Blumenthal wrote. He said Clinton should "refute this passive construction on U.S. policy" and not be "defensive."
The years following Gaddafi's downfall have been chaotic for Libya, which now has two rival governments battling for control and Islamic State militants seeking to take advantage of the security vacuum.
In releasing the emails on Monday, the House panel's chairman Republican Representative Trey Gowdy of South Carolina said that Blumenthal was not the author of some correspondence with Clinton. Some of Blumenthal's emails contained intelligence sourced to a former CIA official, Tyler Drumheller.
Gowdy refused Democrats' requests to also make public the transcript of Blumenthal's deposition, which Democrats say would show Republicans on the panel asked Blumenthal far more questions about politics than Benghazi.
Gowdy said Monday that he found it "odd" that Blumenthal was sending the Secretary of State unvetted intelligence memos when the State Department had its own intelligence bureau, not to mention the CIA.
Gowdy also said Blumenthal's emails should have already been part of the public record, because the State Department should have included them when it released Clinton's records on Libya to the panel. State Department spokesman John Kirby said the department is reviewing the emails that were posted online Monday to determine whether there were any that it had not received from Clinton when she sent the department work-related emails from her private email server.

What are the negative effects of the colonial/apartheid labour laws on black families today?
The head of the black household has for a while lost touch with his true essence.
When we rewind back to our colonial labour history, black men had to surrender their household roles and responsibilities to create wealth for the colonial masters in the mines.
That initial absenteeism of a black man, in a black household, has had and continues to have long lasting and generational effect on broken black families, and in a more focused context contributes to domestic violence.
Here is the BIG question; how do I teach my son love, when I do not know what love from a father is?
The above is the biggest question when studying the generational effect that is rooted in the past labour laws on black families.
Here are more questions to consider on the impact of lost lineage, these ones not as broad:
- What are the lost opportunities of a son growing up without the most important referent of his life; his father?
- What are the effects on his identity, his perceived worth, his assumed role and values in the household and in the community?
- How has this and how does it continue having an impact on lost opportunities of education, opportunities for a black male child to be a child when he is supposed to be?
- Is he not likely to lose his sense of dignity?
- What is the connection of this and domestic abuse, poverty, dysfunctional communities, violent crimes such as hijackings?
Recovering The True Essence Of The African Man:
- Black men, whilst our women are disgusted at our actions #menaretrash, let us take it upon ourselves to discontinue the effect of the lost identity.
- Let us now, more than ever acknowledge that we are responsible for how our sons will treat their women, and which role they will play in society.
- Let us, against all odds choose to be present in the upbringing of our children even when your woman becomes your baby mama.
- Be a mentor to an abandoned son.
- Tailor-made therapy or coaching for the male child who witnesses violence, feels neglected or even grows under very difficult financial situations.
Black men are a great and pivotal creation of life, for a long time you have been lost to the colonial ecosystem. Let us choose to get in touch with the true essence of an African man, again,

In just over a month the second book in my Love From Wales series is released, and it occurs to me I haven't talked very much about it yet.
So, what's it about? Well…
Everyone's talking about Mia Page. Again.
Mia Page has been the subject of gossip in Aberarian for half her life, ever since her father ran off with his secretary–and the contents of the local museum safe–when she was fourteen.
Still, Mia loves her hometown, loves working at the A to Z shop, eating seafood with her best friend Charlie at his restaurant, catching the classic midnight movie at the crumbling Coliseum cinema. And if she ever wonders if things might be even better if Charlie were more than just a friend, well, it's only an idle thought in a lonely moment. After all, friendship always trumps romance, doesn't it? And she's never been one to rock the boat.
But everything she loves is suddenly under threat from Charlie's ex-girlfriend, Becky, and her plans to turn Mia's beloved Coliseum into a casino, transforming the sleepy seaside town forever. As Mia tries to pull the people of Aberarian together to save the town they adore, her father reappears, and people start asking what he wants to take from them this time…
But why's it called An A to Z of Love?
Well, actually, there's a nifty excerpt up on the Lyrical Press website at the moment that explains that.
And if that's not enough, I've got another glimpse of Mia and Charlie here on the site, under the Love from Wales section.
Hopefully that will keep you going until July 23rd!

Berthed beside Golden Princess was the SS Lane Victory, a "Victory Class" WWII warship. PLEASE NOTE: This ship as of Feb 3rd has been moved to a different berth in San Pedro refer to this link for detailed directions to its new home. http://www.lanevictory.org/index.php
This same page has the following description of this magnificent floating museum:
Built in 1945, here in Los Angeles, CA, the S.S. Lane Victory served with distinction during World War II, The Korean War, and the Vietnam War as well as in times of peace as part of the merchant fleet. After years of deterioration in mothballs, it took countless hours of restoration to put her back into her original condition by volunteers of the United States Merchant Marine Veterans of World War II. A nationally recognized historic landmark, the S.S. Lane Victory now serves as a living museum and memorial to the service and sacrifices of all Merchant Marine sailors and Navy Armed Guardsmen. Several times each summer she sails into the past on one of her "Victory At Sea" cruises where "old salts" can reminisce, about adventures past, and younger generations can catch a glimpse of bygone times.
Here are the photos I took.
Next post, we finally board Golden Princess for our departure to Hawaii.

[color=626B73]SUNSPOTS HAVE FADED[/color]• • •Talents:
- Jorjah is a quick learner, book smart, and has a knack for things of the occult.

- She was held captive for a year by a crazy nest of vampires. She knows as much about the occult as she's learned through them. Her mother refused to teach her anything, she didn't want her to lead that life.

- Absolutely none.

- No one knows a damn thing about her.

- Jorjah is just your average teenager. Sweet and innocent, worried about school and what college she was going to go to. That was until her mother and her were attacked and she was taken captive by the vampires, watching as they killed her mother. She has no one in the world and the vampires took it upon themselves to use her for their own sport. For a year she was captive, breaking what will she had left as she waited to get free. She's smart, knowing that if she waited long enough they would slip up and she could escape. Patience is one of the best gifts she ever got from her mother. Being alone all she wants to do is feel loved, to have a place to belong and help others who's lives have been ruined by the supernatural.
Being the average teenager she has that attitude and headstrong ability that seems to get her in a knack for trouble. She hates being told what to do and more then likely she'll try to do the complete opposite just to spite you. Sleep is a thing of the past, she is always deprived as she can't sleep more then an hour or so at a time. The horrors of what she's witnessed forever plaguing her mind. She's an avenging angel, going to take it upon herself to help rid the world of the evils of the world. She never wants anyone to go through what she did. Jorjah sometimes doesn't even care about her own well being as long as the innocents are safe. You should pity the poor soul that winds up taking care of her, they're going to have their hands full.

[color=626B73]HOW WOULD I KNOW[/color]• • •Family:
- Mother: Terese Blake-witch Deceased
Father: Unknown

- Jorjah Lenae Blake was born into a world of mystery, an oddity within her mother's coven that she was born into. The newborn's mother having kept her pregnancy and the identity of the tot's father a secret. The coven kicked the new mother out as she refused to reveal his name, leaving her out in the world on her own. A young mother with a beautiful little girl without the help of the family she thought she had. Terese made do with what she had though. She learned quickly and did all she could to provide for her baby girl.
Growing up they didn't have much but they did what they could to survive. Jorjah knew that her mother would use her magic to make little tonics and salves to help those around them. Her mother opened a small little shop in Philadelphia just so they could have a roof over their head and food in their bellies. The teen didn't really believe in most of it, she could learn bits and pieces from her mother but she preferred to go have fun with her friends. A commodity she shouldn't have taken from granted when her mother wanted her to learn the craft as well. But she was stubborn as an ox and thought her mom was being crazy. So instead, Jorjah would go out at all hours of the night, worrying her mother to death and not even caring.
Seemed that rebellious teenage attitude was going to get the best of their little family. One night she had been out partying with friends when something was slipped in her drink. Jorjah couldn't see straight let alone walk, but she did remember the call to her mother. Terese showed up not too long after when they were both attacked. A nest of vampires having heard of the witch in the area wanted to use her for their own personal gain in the city. They wanted to be able to control the city as their own personal playground. And having a witch in their pocket seemed the perfect way to do that. Terese however refused to help, not letting them use her gifts to ruin the city. Jorjah watched in horror as they killed her right before her very eyes. Forever haunting her as she watched the light leave her mother's eyes.
After that they kept the teen, seeing her as a commodity to help get themselves easy meals. It took a while for them to break her, get her to do their bidding. Torturing her, brain washing her, doing all they could. They finally succeeded. Being forced to help them bring in innocent victims for them to kill. For a year this happened, Jorjah hoping that as the time went on someone would either help her or kill her. Anything to stop the pain and guilt of being the cause of so many deaths. They've changed her, turned her cold, making her realize that there is no good in the world. The shell of the happy child she once was. Now she only wishes she could get free, do something to make her mother proud.

A body lift is a similar concept to a facelift, which smoothes and tightens the skin and underlying tissues, and removes unwanted pockets of fat to eliminate loose skin. However, the most common reason for a body lift is not aging, but rather skin that cannot conform to body contours because of lost or poor elasticity after weight loss, liposuction or other body-shape changes. And while a facelift may redistribute fat, a body lift will more likely remove it in conjunction with liposuction or excision (cutting the fat out).
For some patients, the underlying issue is not fat, but rather excess skin. The younger patients who benefit from a body lift are those who have gained and lost a large amount of weight. This combination stresses the skin to shapes and proportions that can only be corrected through a body lift procedure.
To find out if Body Lift plastic surgery is right for you, contact Arizona Dermacare Cosmetic Surgery for your free consultation at one of our two valley locations of Goodyear or Phoenix, Arizona. You can meet with our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Rod, and be on your way to a more positive image of yourself.
Excess sagging fat and loose skin are removed to treat the conditions caused in part by poor tissue elasticity. A Body Lift can also improve a dimpled, irregular skin surface, commonly known as cellulite. In cases where skin elasticity is poor, a combination of liposuction and body lift techniques may be recommended.
Body Lift plastic surgery is suggested to correct excess loose and sagging skin, and irregular contours of the following:
Good candidates for a Body Lift procedure are:
To find out if a Body Lift will help you achieve your desired aesthetic goals, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Rod of Arizona Dermacare Cosmetic Surgery today. Contact us at one of our two valley locations of Goodyear or Phoenix, Arizona.
Most patients who have undergone a Body Lift procedure will be able to return to non-strenuous work after two to three weeks.
You should not resume a strenuous work or exercise until four to six weeks have passed. This is because you don't want to subject your incisions to any excessive force, abrasion, or motion during your recovery. As with all surgery, it is important to understand that these guidelines can vary widely based on the patient's personal health, the techniques used, and other variable factors surrounding the surgery. Any severe pain should be reported to your doctor immediately.
All surgeries have some degree of risks or complications associated with them, some of these possible risks include:

All staff are required to read the government document "Keeping children safe in education" which provides guidelines on the responsibilities of school staff to be aware of signs of abuse and neglect so that they are able to identify cases of children who may be in need of help or protection and take appropriate action.
All staff are bound by the Teacher's Standards, Teaching Assistant Standards and our Code of Conduct.
Whilst the prime focus of Holly Lodge Primary School is to secure the best educational provision for the child, the school recognises that the safety, welfare and care of children are paramount. We are therefore committed to the highest standards in protecting and safeguarding the children entrusted into our care at all times. Our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy is available here: School Policies
We recognise that some children may be the victims of neglect, physical, sexual or emotional abuse. Staff of the school will often, by virtue of their day to day contact and knowledge of the children, be well placed to identify such abuse and offer support to children in need.
We ensure that arrangements are in place for:
• all appropriate actions to be taken to address concerns about the welfare of a child, or children, following the procedure outlined in The Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy procedures and in full partnership with other local agencies
• all persons working at this school to be trained in the recognition of signs of abuse and how to respond.
In order to protect our children, we aim to:
• Create an atmosphere where all our children can feel secure, valued and listened to
• Recognise signs and symptoms of abuse
• Respond quickly and effectively to cases of suspected abuse
• Notify Children's Services via the approved mechanisms as soon as there is a significant concern.
• Monitor and support children at risk
• Use the curriculum to raise children's awareness, build confidence and skills
• Work closely with parent/carers and support external agencies
• Ensure that all adults within our school/service who have access to children have been checked as to their suitability.
• Provide continuing support to a child about whom there have been concerns who leave the school by ensuring that appropriate information is forwarded under confidential cover to the child's new school.

Ethan Hawke's Blaze of glory
10:43 a.m., Sept. 22
You don't just walk into OnStage Playhouse's theater. You must stop and spread your arms out wide.
291 Third Avenue, Chula Vista
A prison guard (Twila Burnett) frisks you with a metal detector and points if it makes a noise. Her cold stare convinces that if you don't play along and reveal the cause, she won't let you see Bruce Graham's prison drama, set in the Death Row Unit of Alabama State Penitentiary.
Inside, Chad Oakley's set hits you with chainlink fences. A glass guard booth oversees two prison cells, in institutional lime green. There's a small cocktail lounge, on a platform stage left, but it also feels like part of the institution.
This is where Shawna Duchamps (Holly Stephenson) drinks at the end of her shift as a guard.
When there's a "murder" — an execution of an inmate, which she always witnesses — she must fend off reporters and try to forget what they want her to reveal.
John Brennan (Larry E. Fox), convicted of a crime he swears he didn't commit, has been at the penitentiary for ten years. He edits the Death Row Advocate and gives "a voice to the men on the row." He tells the human side of the often-stereotyped prisoners. That he leaves out their brutality has generated controversy.
The newest inmate in the adjoining cell will challenge John's search for the goodness in a person. Nineteen-year-old one-eyed Bobby Reyburn (Shane Ruddick Allen) is an Aryan Brotherhood xenophobe who burned down a black church, killing 37 people, (including 14 children).
At first John wants nothing to do with the racist, anti-Semitic punk. Then John tries to understand where such rancid, unconditional hatred could come from. Allen's performance as Bobby makes the search worth pursuing. He's excitable, open, spontaneous, and touching as the brainwashed young man ("the only person who ever loved him taught him how to hate").
In lesser hands, Bobby's just a sociological study. Allen deftly shows not only what he is, but, in different circumstances, what he might have been.
Imprecise choices and the sense that he hasn't been in prison for ten years make Larry E. Fox's John Brennan difficult to locate. There's a lot more character there. And possibly more of a connection with Holly Stephenson's agitated Shawna. He's in denial about his guilt. Is she denying guilt over the death penalty? And is she repressing feelings for him?
Salomon Maya does capable work as an award-winning, nosy reporter, and Nicole White is downright creepy as the guard who greets you at the door and who, throughout, sustains an inflexible persona.
The acting's a bit uneven, and the script is not without lapses, but credit must go to director James P. Darvas for the intense atmosphere and making the scenes flow.
Steve Murdock's sounds also contribute, be they protesters outside the prison or the incessant howls of inmates down the row.
(corrected 1/26, 9:05 a.m.)
Sounds interesting. Maybe a breath of fresh air from the USUAL fare at OnStage!

Last year I noticed something really strange about my adopted rose bush, the Peace rose. It had produced a few mottled leaves here and there. I discovered this in the earlier part of the growing season. As the months wore on, the mottling gradually disappeared. I thought nothing of it after that. Today I was watering the flowers because temperatures… View Post

Developed in partnership with SFI Research
SFI Research (SFI-R) approached us to develop a suite of games packaged in a cohesive mobile app that would target older consumers and assist in conducting research into how interventions for Mild Cognitive Impairment can be improved.
The app would be used in conjunction with SFI-R nutraceutical products. Its purpose was to drive repurchases and provide data-based insights into user behavior and baseline efficacy over time.
SFI-R identified three domains of cognitive processing that are dependable measurements for cognitive impairment: Spatial Working Memory, Rapid Visual Processing and Paired Associates Learning.
We developed a suite of brain-training style games on the Cogniss platform that touched on all three of these measures. These games served to both strengthen the specified cognitive skills, as well as collect the data necessary to measure the efficacy of SFI-R's nutraceutical products. As the user progresses through the app, a range of data points are collected and fed into Cogniss' rewards-based recognition system, personalizing and incentivizing the user's own journey towards a healthier brain.
Finally, a secure Cogniss Administrative function to export anonymized data – including user details, session times, game scores, snapshots of overall progress and more – was made available to help further SFI-R's research objectives.
Powered by Cogniss, the app was able to seamlessly combine five new game mechanics focused on the three domains of cognitive processing. The flexibility of the platform allowed SFI-R to package SFI Brain Health in a way that reflected the core branding and style of its products. Importantly, the app also allows SFI-R to collect critical user behavior data in an entertaining, non-invasive manner.
The app is also fully functional across multiple languages (English, French, German, Italian and Bahasa Indonesia) and devices.

This soup requires little effort and is packed with flavor.
Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 1 cup chopped onion and saute for 3 minutes. Add 4 cups vegetable broth, 2 cups water, 1/4 tsp. salt (you can make it 1/2 tsp. if you prefer), 1/4 tsp. black pepper, 3 peeled and halved medium beets, 1 medium potato (peeled and cut in half crosswise), and 1 bay leaf.
(I was a bit annoyed the original recipe didn't specify weights for the "medium" beets and potato. My beets were about 1-and-a-half inches in diameter, which I judged to be medium, and my potato weighed in at about 8 ounces. One or the other of those must have been too large, however, because I wound up with about one more serving of soup than I should have. The original recipe also didn't specify which type of potato, but I used a regular russet baking potato. I would imagine Yukon gold would work well here, too).
Bring the mixture to a boil, then simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Working in 3 batches, puree the soup in a blender until smooth. Transfer all of the pureed soup back to the saucepan. Heat over low heat for about 5 minutes, until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice.
Ladle 1/2 cup of soup into a bowl and whisk in 8 teaspoons vegan sour cream (such as Tofutti's Better Than Sour Cream). Set aside.
Ladle 3/4 cups of the remaining soup into each of 8 bowls. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon of the 'sour cream' mixture and swirl with the tip of a knife - make as pretty a design as you can if you're particularly artistic! Each serving of soup is 80 calories.
onion $0.57
vegetable broth $3.69
beets $1.57

Few people outside of Holly Holm's own team believed that she would dethrone Ronda Rousey at UFC 193. Luckily for them, some of Holm's crew put their money where their hearts were.
The new bantamweight champion's manager Lenny Fresquez told USA Today that he and others in the fighter's circle placed wagers on her to win the UFC 193 main event, and netted a cash payout in the six-figure range.
More from FoxSports
"None of the team ever even had a doubt," he said.
"Not a person in the camp had a doubt [that] Holly would win this fight. There was never any negativity from inside the camp. She has a great team."
And a slightly richer one, as well. Fresquez couldn't help but gloat a bit, afterwards.
"I am sorry, Vegas," he said, likely not sorry at all.
"You shouldn't have put the odds so hight. It was a couple of our team members. We had a good pot together, so it was nice. I wish I would have [wagered] more money."

MSc in Medical AnthropologyView desktop page
About the Programme
Medical anthropology studies health, illness and healing from a cross-cultural perspective. Medical anthropologists explore a wide range of medical practices, including both performative forms of healing (e.g., shamanism) and the newest biomedical technologies. Medical anthropologists are working in diverse fields: academic research, global health organizations, and health-focused NGOs. Concepts and methodologies from medical anthropology have become essential in all areas of global health research.
Edinburgh's Postgraduate Programme engages students with the field's distinctive approach to health and medicine. It takes students away from the idea that there is only one standardized "best practice" by showing an astounding diversity of therapeutic methods, ideas of disease causation, healer personalities, and spaces for healing.
Edinburgh is an internationally outstanding centre for medical anthropology and our Programme is the largest of its kind in the UK. Teaching staff specializing in body, health, and medicine include Professor Janet Carsten, Dr Jamie Cross, Dr Jacob Copeman, Dr Stefan Ecks, Professor Alex Edmonds, Professor Ian Harper, Dr Lucy Lowe, Dr Rebecca Marsland, Dr Maya Mayblin, Dr Ayaz Qureshi and Dr Alice Street. Our regional expertise encompasses Africa, South Asia, South-East Asia, East Asia, Melanesia, South and Central America, as well as Europe and North America. Core strengths are in mental health, infectious diseases (e.g., HIV, malaria, tuberculosis), gender and reproductive health, bodily fluids, ritual healing, global health, and global pharmaceuticals. The Programme was called "Anthropology of Health & Illness" until 2011-12. The new name, "Medical Anthropology," expresses our increasing focus on the intersections between anthropology and globalized biomedicine.
The PG Programme in Medical Anthropology draws its intellectual vibrancy from the dialogue between social and medical perspectives. This dialogue is also reflected in our student body, who mainly come from three backgrounds: (1) students with an undergraduate degree in a social science who want to specialize in medical anthropology, (2) medical doctors and nurses who want to expand their expertise with an anthropological perspective, and (3) students with undergraduate degrees in biological and natural sciences who take a one-year MSc in preparation for Medical School.
Graduates of the Programme went on to work for international organizations and for health think tanks; won admission to some of the world's most prestigious Medical Schools (including Harvard and Yale); or continued to study for a PhD in Social Anthropology.
The PG Programme offers two streams: the taught MSc Medical Anthropology and the MSc by Research Medical Anthropology. The taught MSc is best suited for students who have no prior knowledge of medical anthropology. The MSc by Research is designed as the first year of study for students aiming to do PhD-level research afterwards. Both MSc degrees can be studied either full-time (12 months) or part-time (24 months). The PG Programme has won recognition from the UK Economic & Social Science Research Council (ESRC).
Students in both MSc streams take two core courses ("Anthropology of Health & Illness," "Anthropology & Global Health"). Students in the taught MSc take another four courses offered by Social Anthropology, the Global Public Health Unit (GPHU), and the Graduate School of Social & Political Science at large. From April until August, students work on their 15,000 word dissertations.
Students in the MSc by Research take a range of ESRC-recognized research training courses offered by the Graduate School, which prepare them for their own fieldwork project. Coursework lasts from September to March. From April to August, students conduct a supervised reading course and write a 15,000 word dissertation that takes the form of a research proposal.

Customize your JAMA Network experience by selecting one or more topics from the list below.
To assess changes in rates of health care–associated invasive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, Kallen and colleagues Article analyzed 2005-2008 data reported by facilities participating in a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention population-based emerging infections surveillance system. The authors found that from 2005 through 2008, health care–associated invasive MRSA infections decreased 17% among patients with infections that began in the community and 28% among patients with hospital-onset disease in these 9 geographically diverse metropolitan areas. In an editorial, Perencevich and Diekema Article discuss potential reasons for the decrease in health care–associated invasive MRSA infections and the importance of ongoing infection surveillance and prevention research programs.
Zhang and colleagues analyzed data from the 2005-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to determine the prevalence of and risk factors associated with diabetic retinopathy among adults aged 40 years or older. The authors estimate that among US adults with diabetes, the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and vision-threatening diabetic retinopathy was 28.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 24.9%-32.5%) and 4.4% (95% CI, 3.5%-5.7%), respectively. Risk factors included racial/ethnic minority status, male sex, higher hemoglobin A1c level, use of insulin, longer duration of diabetes, and higher systolic blood pressure.
Esophagitis is a known adverse effect of oral bisphosphonate use, and several small case series of esophageal cancer among patients using bisphosphonates have been reported. To more fully assess whether bisphosphonates increase esophageal cancer risk, Cardwell and colleagues analyzed data from the UK General Practice Research Database—representing approximately 6% of the UK population—and found no increased risk of incident esophageal or gastric cancer among users of bisphosphonates compared with nonusers.
Emergency departments (EDs) are often the health care provider of last resort for uninsured and underinsured persons. In an analysis of nationally representative ED visit data from 1997 through 2007, Tang and colleagues Article assessed changes in adult and pediatric ED visits by sociodemographic group. Among the authors' findings were that total ED visits increased significantly, particularly among adults with Medicaid, and the number of EDs qualifying as safety net—providing a disproportionate share of services to Medicaid and uninsured persons—increased 46% between 1997 and 2007. In a commentary, Katz Article discusses the future of the health care safety net—including public hospitals and clinics, community health centers, and private hospitals and physicians who provide uncompensated care—under health reform.
Ms R is a 29-year-old woman who sought care from her primary care physician after several days of a nonproductive cough, diffuse headache, myalgia, and fatigue, which did not respond to over-the-counter remedies. On physical examination she was afebrile with nonlabored respirations and normal vital signs; she had clear nasal discharge and a mildly erythematous pharynx. Barry discusses the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of influenza.

Want to become a better person?
Here are some tips…tried and true!
1. Volunteer: Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth." 1 John 3:18
2. Consider His word: I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches. I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways. I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word. Ps 119:14-16
3. Love one another: Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Eph 4:2
4. Be an encourager: Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you. 2 Cor 13:11
5. Practice humility: When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom. Prov 11:2
6. Be careful what you say: The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one's life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell. James 3:5-7
7. Be wise ("fear"=respect for and knowledge of God): The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise.
8. Work hard: All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty. Prov 14:23
9. Guard the attitude of your heart: What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don't they come from your desires that battle within you? You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.
10. Love and obey: Love the LORD your God and keep his requirements, his decrees, his laws and his commands always. Deut 11:1

A penniless writer named Christian in the movie Moulin Rouge once said "Love? Above all things I believe in love. Love is a many splendid thing, love lifts us up where we belong!"-and I agree. But I believe that there are three different kinds of love–love that you're stuck with, love that you pick, and love that picks you.
Let's start with the first kind of love–love that you're stuck with–family. No matter how much I may fight with my family, I know that they're going to be there in the end. For example, when I was younger, I used to attend day camp. Once a summer, the entire day camp would go on an over night trip to the Hamptons, but my Mom never let me go. I'm an only child, so my Mom is extra over protective. I was always mad because my friends went every year, and hearing the great stories didn't make it any better. Every year I never let my Mom get away easy, because hearing the word "NO" from family doesn't make me smile. But in retrospect it doesn't make me stop loving them; I move on like all other rational people.
Now on to the second kind of love–love that you pick–is illustrated by "you CAN pick your friends". The friends that I have chosen are a lot like me, and I choose to love them because they're the most amazing people I know. My 5 best friends and I made joint scrapbooks for each other's Sweet 16's. We all chipped in to buy the supplies and we got to make 5 pages each for every 20 page scrapbook. This meant that aside from seeing each other everyday at school, every weekend and day off we had, we saw each other in dedication to the scrapbooks. Since my friends and I are so involved with school, and our birthdays are so close together, we usually finished each scrapbook the last minute before we left our houses to go to that person's party.
The third kind of love–love that chooses you–is shared with that significant other in your life. However those endless kisses from that special someone are unknown to me at this point in my life, but one day that will change.
In Moulin Rouge, Christian also said "All you need is love!" Christian makes a valid point, because love is passionate and tender, and giving and receiving that emotion is definitely all I need.
