Could hops help fight cancer?
CORVALLIS, Ore. - The Pacific Northwest grows the majority of the hops used to brew beer in America.
And America's best India pale ale - a style of brew known for its hoppiness - comes from Oregon.
Now researchers at Oregon State University say evidence is mounting that a flavorless chemical component of hops may have cancer-preventing properties.
"This is Oregon. We are one of the Meccas for craft beer," said Jeff Clawson, the manager of the pilot brewing program at Oregon State.
Hops lend beer its bitter flavor. Oregon, Washington and Idaho are the only states that grow the crop.
Researchers are looking into the health benefits of a particular hop compound called Xanthohumol.
"There are one or two other plants in nature that make that compound," said Dr. Fred Stevens, professor of medicinal chemistry at Oregon State. "It's really unique to the hops."
Stevens isolated the compound in a petri dish model. Research found it can actually slow down the process that leads to cancer formation.
"Xanthohumol is a flavonoid found in hops. We've known about it for a long time, but it never received any attention from beer brewers because it has no taste," Stevens said in a Q&A posted on the Linus Pauling Institute website.
"I got interested in xanthohumol back in 1995 when I became a post-doc at Oregon State University with Professor Max Deinzer. We were investigating the chemistry of hops and focused on xanthohumol, which we were able to isolate. Professor Don Buehler, Val Miranda, and I investigated the activity of xanthohumol in cancer cells and found that it induces phase 2 enzymes - enzymes that detoxify carcinogens. That is good for cancer chemoprotection. We also found that xanthohumol inhibits phase 1 enzymes that activate pro-carcinogens. So the effect is two-fold: xanthohumol prevents activation of pro-carcinogens into carcinogens by phase 1 enzymes and helps detoxify carcinogens by the phase 2 process. We can clearly say that xanthohumol is a cancer chemoprotective compound in cell culture."
A supplement containing the hops compound is already on the market in Europe.
"There they showed that that particular supplement can actually decrease the frequency of hot flashes in women," Stevens said.
But the research and the benefits don't stop there. Stevens is performing lab research to study the impact of a specific ingredient found in hops on your metabolism.
"It could cause weight loss," he said.
Researchers treated animals with the hop compound and it "caused the animals to lose weight, or they didn't gain as much weight compared to animals that were not treated."
Stevens said it could potentially help prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes.
"For those people, for a certain fraction of those people, it could have beneficial effects," he said.
Unfortunately for beer lovers, there isn't enough Xanthohumol in beer to get the benefits just from quaffing pints of IPA.
How much is enough remains to be determine. Researchers are still investigating how much of the Xanthohumol people would need to take to see a health benefit.

A bigger fish (tank) story - EcoQube
Aqua Design Innovations is a University of California San Diego (UCSD) undergraduate startup. Economics major, Eric Suen (2015) and Biology major Kevin Liang (2014) spent the last year designing the EcoQube, a miniature ecosystem that they hope will become a part of peoples' homes and will inspire more people, especially children, to be more environmentally aware, particularly about aquaponics. The EcoQube is a vision that underlines the potential possibility of changing the way agriculture and aquaculture traditionally work.
According to Suen, there are huge inefficiencies and environmental problems in the way that our food is produced.
Seventy percent of our global water consumption goes into agriculture, but only a fraction of that water is actually being used by the plants to grow. The water not being absorbed by plants is running off into our rivers and lakes, carrying pesticides and nutrients used in farming. This is extremely detrimental to our environment.
In addition, more than 8 billion gallons of water is being drawn for aquaculture every day in America. In order to keep this water clean for farming fish, it has to constantly be replaced.
In an attempt to eliminate the waste produced in both industries of aquaculture and agriculture, aquaponics conveniently combines the two methods of food production. Aquaponics is a symbiotic relationship between fish and plants where the fish provide the plants with nutrients from their waste and the plants provide the fish with clean, filtered water.
From their research at Solutions Farm, one of the largest aquaponics farms in the United States, they believe that aquaponics is the future of sustainable, organic agriculture.
This method of growing fruits and vegetables uses 90-98% less water than traditional agriculture. It does this by keeping all of the water in use within a recirculating system that also houses the fish. Thus, the only water leaving the system is actually the water that the plants absorb and release through transpiration and evaporation.
Additionally, all of this farming is done in a controlled environment without soil. This eliminates soil borne diseases and insects, which mean no pesticides would need to be used!
With urban populations growing and our natural resources becoming more scarce, we need to change the way we are currently farming our food. This change starts with awareness and education at an early age.
Through the beauty of an accessible, scaled down aquaponics ecosystem like the EcoQube, we hope more people will learn about aquaponics and how it works.

Do you live in the buckle on the Bible Belt? Are you a skeptic, unbeliever, or other form of non-Christian sojourner there? The Uncredible Hallq is hosting a discussion for people to share what the secular experience is really like for someone in the midst of the Kingdom of God.
Strange as it may sound for someone who writes about religion so much, there are times when religion seems like this thing that's "out there" but which doesn't affect my life. And I guess that's been true for some parts of my life, particularly when I've lived in the "blue" (i.e. liberal) city* of Madison, WI. So let this be a thread for people to talk about their experiences living in "red" parts of the country.
Stop on over if you've got an interesting story to tell. Or even a boring one. All perspectives are welcome.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — He has yet to play a down of football at the Division I level, but top 2008 Colorado running back recruit Darrell Scott was tabbed as the Big 12 preseason Newcomer of the Year.
On Tuesday at Big 12 Media Days, Colorado head coach Dan Hawkins said that his highly-touted freshman is staying humble about the honor and expectations. He's also multi-talented, even more so than most people think.
Hawkins said when he asked Scott about receiving the accolade, his response was pretty simple.
"His first comment was, 'I haven't even put on any pads,'" Hawkins said. "He is a very humble kid. I'm more concerned with all those other intangible things. I know physically he's going to be a good player down the road, but just like any kid, it's about providing a good environment where he's going to survive."
Seeing Scott in the backfield early in his career has yet to be determined with fall camp still around the corner. Hawkins said there is another skill the freshman possesses on special teams.
"He's a great punter," Hawkins said. "Now imagine having a guy like that, that can run like that, that's punting…Now are you going to rush the punter or play defense? We've got Matt DiLallo who's a very good punter as well - I'm just saying, I know myself. If I see their tailback playing punter, I'm thinking, I might be looking at this a little differently."
Defensive tackle George Hypolite joked about what he would do if he saw a running back with Scott's ability back there handling punting duties.
"I'd try to go hit him as hard as I could," Hypolite said. "Hopefully he'd be out of the game for everything else."
Millard North's Behrens getting noticed at CU
Former Millard (Neb.) North and current Colorado fullback Jake Behrens drew praise from Hawkins for his hard work on and off the field on Tuesday.
"He had some really good moments for us last year," Hawkins said. "You know coming out of high school, he was more of a runner than a blocker. We've tried to put him in a position to do some of those things.
"He has a really outstanding opportunity through our business school. He's doing an internship in London for the better part of the summer. I thought that was a tremendous opportunity for him. He's a very good student as well. He's one of those guys that's a great role player and will do whatever – we just keep looking for ways to accentuate what he does well."

TEXAS TECH: Why no Harrell or Crabtree?
The biggest question of the day for the Red Raiders was undoubtedly the absence of Heisman Trophy candidate quarterback Graham Harrell and preseason All-American receiver Michael Crabtree.
Texas Tech head coach Mike Leach defended his decision to leave the team's two biggest names by saying he wanted to give other players a chance to be in the spotlight. Leach opted to bring cornerback Jamar Wall, safety Daniel Charbonnet and receiver Eric Morris instead.
"Harrell and Crabtree get a lot of attention, deserve a lot of attention and will continue to get a lot of attention and the important thing to us and our team is the fact that football is the ultimate team game," Leach said. "And our effort this year, really any team, is going to be how every member does as far as fulfilling their role and that being the case I've got three guys that I think are team leaders that are emerging. So I wanted to have the three I brought go to the forefront."
How far can Harrell go?
For the first time under Leach, a Texas Tech quarterback is getting legitimate Heisman consideration heading into a season. With Harrell likely on pace to push former Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan for several all-time passing marks, the senior is entering the year with higher expectations than his predecessors ever did.
What is Leach expecting out of Harrell this season?
"Well, he led the nation in passing (last year)," Leach said. "He led the nation in offense, because I think he's a great player and he does a lot of great things as far as utilizing the other players around him, which is the biggest compliment in my mind a quarterback can have. How good of a quarterback is he? Well, how good is the guy making the players around him better. I think Graham is really good at that.
"And I think just his ability to improve overall. I think one of his strengths is he really doesn't have any weaknesses but just overall steady improvement. He's one of those guys, well, initially you go down to the hall and you'd have to kick him out of the office because the building was going to close. Now that we trust him and know him pretty well, we just leave him there. For all I know he lives there."

MISSOURI: Hunted now the hunter
Heading into the 2008 season, Missouri finds itself as one of the conference's favorites. The Tigers were unanimously selected by the Big 12 media to win the North and one of the favorites to push the likes of Oklahoma for the conference title.
They have a Heisman Trophy finalist at quarterback in Chase Daniel and a first-team All-American receiver in Jeremy Maclin, as well as a defense that ranked in the top 25 nationally in turnovers (8th), turnover margin (11th) and rushing defense (25th).
While the Tigers obviously have the pieces in place, the question is how they'll respond to losing their role as underdogs.
"I think that's always a concern," Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel said. "I think responsibly that's what I have to do. I kind of filter that down with our seniors. As I look at that I look at our seniors from a leadership standpoint, they're kind of – they kind of help me watchdog over our team.
"But right now I think we're doing the right things and hopefully the experience of last year of playing at a higher level, playing in a lot of pressure situations, hopefully we can play at a high level again."
Replacing Tony Temple
Though Missouri returns a ton in Daniel and Maclin, the Tigers suffered a big loss with the graduation of running back Tony Temple. A 1,000-yard rusher the past two seasons, Temple was able to keep defenses honest by providing a strong rushing attack and opened up space for Daniel and MU's receivers to make big plays.
The potential replacements are sophomore Derrick Washington and fifth-year senior Jimmy Jackson. Jackson was third on the team in rushing last year (331 yards, seven touchdowns), while Washington played in the final 12 games as a true freshman.
However, both will likely share carries with Maclin, who was second on the team in rushing last year with 375 yards and four touchdowns.
"Jeremy Maclin is so good with a football in his hands, we hand the football to him like a running back, seven, eight, nine times a game," Pinkel said. "We'll have a challenge.
We'll play running backs as most people following us know, and that's going to be important."

TEXAS A&M: Introducing the Sherman Era
With the introduction of former NFL head coach Mike Sherman to College Station, the Aggies will take on a whole new look both in schemes and personnel.
One of the first moves Sherman made upon his arrival was moving senior Jorvorskie Lane from running back to fullback. He said Lane wasn't exactly thrilled about the move, but has adjusted to his new role fairly well.
The other big change could come at quarterback, as Sherman has opened up competition for the starting job despite the return of senior two-year starter Stephen McGee. McGee thrived in former A&M coach Dennis Franchione's option-style offense, but could suffer with the change to Sherman's more West Coast-style scheme.
Sophomore Jerrod Johnson is the leading contender to take over McGee's starting job, and freshmen Tommy Dorman and Ryan Tannehill could also make a push.
"I spend more time looking at our spring tapes and evaluating players and even game tapes," Sherman said. "I've watched the game tapes. And I just want to see how our quarterbacks work in what we're asking them to do. I don't think you have a controversy when you feel like you have good talent at that position. And if we didn't have talent at that position, yeah, there would be a controversy. And if you don't have a quarterback in this offense, well, you're going to struggle.
"I have confidence that we're going to have a very good quarterback when we start the season. I think he'll play at a higher level because of the competition. I think it would be unfair to me to just walk in and hand Stephen the job."

KANSAS STATE: Freeman coming into his own
Heading into his third season as a starter, junior quarterback Josh Freeman has gone through more than his share of ups and downs at Kansas State.
It's been a steady learning process for Freeman, but KSU head coach Ron Prince said he's been pleased with his quarterback's progress over the years. Last season, Freeman improved vastly in every major passing statistic from his freshman year, especially in completion percentage (51.9 to 63.3), passing yards (1,780 to 3,353), touchdowns (six to 18) and interceptions (15 to 11).
"This is one of the very few quarterbacks in the country that's never red shirted. This is one of the few quarterbacks in the country that came in from high school right into our program, was expected to play and win," Prince said. "I think now it's a matter of all the small things: progression, reads, footwork, all that kind of stuff. The future is in front of him. The sky's the limit. I would not trade our quarterback for any quarterback in the country."
Calling all running backs…"
The Wildcats have been hit with terrible luck this off-season as far as getting their running backs' eligibility is concerned. KSU lost presumed starter Leon Patton and Daniel Davis to suspensions earlier this year, and is now left looking to five freshmen to fill their voids.
Prince said he was hopeful that true freshmen Kwamaine Brown, Logan Dold and Jarell Childs could step in an make immediate impacts, as well as redshirt freshmen Justin Woods and Dee Bell.
"I think we've made significant moves to answer the running back position clearly," Prince said. "Clearly Leon Patton was our starter in the year. That situation will go unresolved for a period of time. Losing (former starter) James Johnson, obviously you can have a very doubtful approach to that. We didn't have that approach at all. The truth is that we feel like we've done enough in the last couple of years in this class to try to answer them."

OKLAHOMA STATE: Gundy's still a man, and he's still 40
Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy didn't waste any time in getting the 3 minute, 20 second rant that made him a YouTube sensation last year out of the way during Tuesday's Big 12 press conference.
For those not included in the million or so people who watched the clip, Gundy called out a Oklahoma newspaper for running a story essentially belittling former quarterback Bobby Reid. Some saw it as a coach defending his player, while others found hilarity in Gundy's way of doing so.
Either way, it was certainly topic No. 1 in Kansas City.
"I've been a popular guy over the last year," Gundy said seconds into his opening statement. "I don't know how many opening comments I need to make. I do know that."
Now back to football…
After further expanding on last season's tirade, Gundy went on to praise the play of junior quarterback Zac Robinson.
Robinson took replaced Reid as the starter midway through last season and hit the ground running, completing 60 percent of his passes for more than 2,800 yards and 23 touchdowns. He also rushed for 847 yards and tied for the team lead with nine rushing touchdowns.
"There were only three players (nationally) from what I understand that rushed for over 800 yards and threw for over 2,800, and the other one won the Heisman Trophy," Gundy said. "I think that sums up the season he had statistically. Zac is a good person. He's a good leader. He's been a tremendous player for us on and off the field. He's not concerned with individual statistics. He's more concerned with us winning football games."

KANSAS: Mangino's YouTube outburst
Outbursts by Big 12 coaches seemed to be a popular subject at Tuesday's Big 12 Media Days. Between Kansas head coach Mark Mangino, Hawkins and Gundy, they all have had an outburst captured on YouTube in the last year.
Mangino's YouTube blow-up happened last year after a 77 yard punt return for a touchdown by Raimond Pendleton. On his way to the end zone, Pendleton dove over the goal line and was given a 15 yard personal foul penalty for his excessive celebration. After the play was over, let's just say Mangino gave Pendleton more than an earful.
When KU starting quarterback Todd Reesing was asked if he saw the YouTube clip, he laughed and said "I saw it live."
"I have to say it might have been a little bit funny, but I think the general point he was trying to get across was it was a great run and a great punt return, but there were 10 guys that blocked for him to make it happen," Reesing said. "For him to take the spotlight like that defeats the purpose of 11 guys playing as one. You have to have 10 guys to block for one guy to score like that."
And yes, in case you are wondering, Reesing has taken his fair share of butt chewing's from Mangino over the last couple of years.
"Everyone takes their rap at some point," Reesing said. "I don't think I've gotten it that bad, but behind closed doors when I first got here, I definitely took my share."

This two-day training on naturalization and citizenship in New York City is free for participating staff and volunteers from non-profit organizations working on naturalization and citizenship issues. Please note that space is limited. All participants will receive a free CD-ROM copy of the ILRC's newly updated and best-selling manual, Naturalization and U.S. Citizenship: The Essential Legal Guide (12th Edition).
- Day 1: The first day of this training will include a review of the general requirements for naturalization including continuous residence, physical presence, good moral character, the English and Civics requirements, and the red flag issues that can cause an applicant to be denied or even deported. Additionally, we will review the various ways in which an absence from the United States can affect one's naturalization application, the best ways to complete the naturalization application (N-400), application procedures, and how to assist special groups of applicants through fee waivers, oath waivers, the 50/20 and 55/15 English exemptions, disability waivers, and securing accommodations for people with disabilities.
- Day 2: The second day of this training covers some of the more complex aspects of immigration law, including advanced good moral character issues, how a criminal conviction can affect a naturalization application, and citizenship for children. During the good moral character discussions in the course of the training, we will delve into the reasons why some naturalization applicants could be deportable, as well as how failure to register for the selective service, failure to pay child support, failure to file income taxes, and other issues can affect one's naturalization application. Additionally, we will review how different criminal convictions can affect one's naturalization application.

More Than My Body (before & after)
Back in 2014 I shared my "reverse progress" photo. At the time, it was the scariest, most vulnerable thing I had ever done. I was a fitness professional who had long clung to the idea that I needed to have a perfect body in order to be successful in this industry.
I thought I needed to have a perfect body in order to be loved.
In order to be happy.
In order to be free.
But the thing that actually set me free was learning to give myself compassion, to let go of perfection, and to treat my body with love, not loathing.
Posting that initial "reverse progress" photo was scary as a mofo, but in a very real way, it was the culmination of this sense of freedom. I got every comment you could possibly imagine:
"I liked you better then."
"I like you better now."
"Thank you for sharing your story."
"You got fat."
"You're too skinny to know anything about body image."
"This is so inspiring!"
"You gave up and let yourself go."
"Thanks for showing me I'm not alone!"
The point in posting it wasn't to start a discussion about MY body, it was to help other women start a discussion about their own–to help them release deeply rooted body image issues and learn to be free in their bodies. That conversation is still happening, and helping women start that conversation is a key component of my business.
It's been almost 2 years since I shared that photo, and I figured it was time for an update. This is not your typical before and after. The first photo was taken in 2009, at the height of my food/exercise obsession.
The second photo was taken this morning.
In 2009, I was the leanest I'd ever been; today, I'm 10 pounds heavier.
Some people might call this "giving up" or "letting myself go" (trust me, I've gotten those comments), but the truth is, neither of those are valid. I still exercise daily and I don't binge on junk food.
The only things I've "let go" are obsessive behaviors in the pursuit of leanness, and the belief that my body somehow defines my worth. Allow me to paint a picture for you of the stark differences between 2009 and 2016…
I was 12% body fat, 120 pounds.
I trained 2 hours per day and would often use exercise as a punishment for "bad" nutritional decisions. If I didn't have time to train 2 hours, it meant I was undisciplined and didn't have my priorities straight.
I counted EVERY SINGLE calorie Monday-Friday, and then, because I couldn't maintain it, I'd binge my face off on the weekend.
After my weekend binge, I would wake up Monday morning 3-6 pounds heavier than I was on Friday, and then proceed to be as strict as possible to lose the bloat by Friday.
I weighed myself *every single day,* and depending on what it said, the scale ...

Jessica Layton left her Oregon hometown - and her longtime love - for medical school with one thing on her mind: saving lives. Her frontier dreams were filled with more than rural domestic life, even if that life was with the man she was supposed to marry.…
Now, years later, Cole Braddock is not pleased to see Dr. Jessica Layton back in Powell Springs. He's never forgiven her for choosing her career over him. With his brother fighting in the trenches in France, Cole's busy running the family horse farm and supplying mounts to the Allied forces. He assumes he won't have to see much of his childhood love…but the pull between them only grows stronger.
To escape the heartache of seeing Cole again, Jessica vows to keep her visit home as brief as possible. But the influenza epidemic that's been ravaging the world hits Powell Springs hard. With no other doctor available, Jessica stays to treat the victims - and tries to ignore the emotions that surge each time Cole crosses her path. Cole knows that Jess can save their town, but will he let her heal his heart?

There are no listener reviews for this title yet.
"A Sister's Betrayal"
Jessica comes home for a visit, she is now a doctor on her way to accept a job in Seattle, when a plague breaks out and there is no doctor in town to help. The plague is virulent, and strikes all age groups. Cole appears to be the one in town whom everyone turns to for answers, it seems that the town thinks he has been "keeping company" with Jessica's sister, and it's up to him weather Jessica stays and ministers to the towns people.
The story is memorable, gives you a glimpse of how things were out west during WWI, and the settlement of those cities.
The narrator did a very good job. I really enjoyed her reading.
"So Sweet"
I love a good love story and this story did promise the sweetest tale of two people in love, but trying to hard to do the right thing.
The narrator was awesome in bring the story to life I have actually listened to it twice now.
This story made me cry and it also made me research the history of that time era.
This is a great story to listen to.
"Hard to finish"
Worst narrator I've listened to. Very melodramatic. Made the book hard to finish. Do not recommend.
"Loved this book and hope for more to come!"
Grabbed my attention
I read this right after finishing 50 shades thinking nothing would compare to that series as I loved them so much that I reader them twice back to back and when done I started looking for something to grab my attention again I started many different books to stumble across this book and fell just as much in love with this story line! Excellent book and hope for more to come!!
"Not my typical book, but I liked it!"
I bought the book because it was on sale and sounded okay. Then I put off reading it because I didn't think I would like it. But once I started, I really got into it! The story line is interesting and there are some twists that I really wasn't expecting!
I've read 9 of Ms. Harrington's books but I can't read this one. I like Jessica but her sister, Amy, is just so self-centered and selfish, the opposite of her sister. I like Cole, too. BUT I can see its going to take the entire book to get past the angst and misunderstanding and lies. 329 pages of nothing but that is just too much. PLUS, there's going to be sex and not an ounce of anything that leads up to it. No thoughts of even a kiss between the two, nothing. Then suddenly they're going to jump into bed? No thanks! AND if you read the blurb of the next 2 books you know how this one ends. That's just silly.
Another reason I won't be moving on to the next book, or finishing this one (at page 127) is because you met Riley, Cole's brother, in this book. Not just a page or two but page after page, chapters spent in France where he was in the war, in the rain, in the trenches, sleeping on the wet ground, joking with his men, looking out for them. THEN the author kills him off. I can't read a book that spends so much time with a secondary character, makes you get to know him and like him, and then the author feels the need to kill him off so another man can have his wife. That's not for me.
As to the narrator: You can certainly tell this book was narrated in 2012 because the narrator barely tries to make the hero sound manly, and fails, and the other males in the book not at all. She read without emotion, no whispers, no raising her voice in anger, no crying, no nothing. So, no, I can't recommend the audible version of this book. Even free it's not worth it.
"Loved it!"
A true romance and love story. It's about love lost and found, commitment and endurance, and most importantly second chances and forgiveness!
The narrator was great as well. I highly recommend it. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series
"good story"
good story, reminded me of how difficult people had it prior to antibiotics, romantic but serious.

Data releases begin; more to comeSeptember 29th, 2010 [ 2 Comments ]
H/t to Ed O'Keefe of The Washington Post for the following:
"We're going to be releasing a lot of population data in the coming months," Census Bureau Director Robert Groves said last week at a meeting with reporters. "There is a potential for confusion." (See a full schedule below.)
Indeed. For example, the ranks of the nation's poor rose last year, according to Census statistics released Tuesday.
Those stats come from the American Community Survey, a questionnaire randomly sent on an annual basis to households nationwide. The survey helps determine the status of 40 different topic areas, including annual income, housing levels, educational attainment, family structure, commute times and the number of disabled people.
Some conservative activists and Republican lawmakers wrongly assumed that these questions were part of the 2010 Census forms. But no, the ACS replaced the old census "long form" that was randomly sent to some households in the past. (And yes, skeptics: It is constitutional for the Census Bureau to ask questions beyond a simple count of people.)
In December the Census Bureau will release ACS statistics based on data collected between 2005 and 2009 for geographic areas of all sizes. A third set of ACS data collected between 2007 and 2009 and covering all areas with populations of 20,000 or more will be released in January.
The results of the 10-question decennial census forms completed earlier this year will be released in December, as required by the U.S. Constitution. (Article 1, Section 2 states that "[An] enumeration shall be made within three years after the first meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent term of ten years, in such manner as they shall by law direct.")
The December release will include the nation's new total population figures and state-by-state congressional apportionment information. Other information on redistricting will be released in February or March.

text: A comment under another thread made me wonder about the best teacher gifts in today's world. She mentioned she had to buy many of the supplies for her classroom out of her personal money. I am thinking that cash or a gift card would be better appreciated than a home made item. What do you think?

She said she subsequently went from home to home and was kicked out of each, before she "practiced (her) charm on a dope dealer" and wound up alone in a field.
"I will never touch meth again," she said she prayed, "if you can stop this feeling." Fenech was treated at a hospital and directed to the Salvation Army.
"I'm loving the new me," she said.
Fenech was one of 12 women Tuesday who had their hair colored, cut and styled, their makeup applied and their nails painted at the Jonesboro Creative School of Cosmetology.
"I feel nothing but wonderful, and I feel nothing but love," she said as Creative School student Tiara Morris tended to her hair.
Jack Elliott said he wanted to reach out to the community this holiday season.
The supervisor and instructor at the Jonesboro Creative School of Cosmetology, Elliot planned a day of free makeovers for women staying at Mission Outreach of Paragould and the Salvation Army homeless shelter in Jonesboro.
Tammy Kyle, who is staying at the Paragould Mission, said the free makeover allowed her to take her mind off her problems for a while.
Shirley Pittman, also staying at the Mission, said, "It's been a long time since I've been pampered."
Versheka Whitaker, a student who was giving manicures, said the event was her first experience with charity work.
"I've been thinking about this all weekend," she said. "As long as (the client) is satisfied, I'm happy."
Elliott hoped the event would allow women to "match their inner beauty with outer beauty." The end result was better than he expected, he said.
Elliott arranged transportation for the women, and he put together kits, each containing a nail file and eyebrow archer, for the women to take with them.
Students worked on hair and manicures, while Dillard's make-up artists Elizabeth Maxwell, a Lancome associate, and Sharon Turner, a Clarins Cosmetics associate, applied the women's makeup.
"Women understand women better," Turner said.
Maxwell gave the women tips for achieving the look she gave them, and she said each woman would be sent home with a bag containing some products, including lip color.
Maxwell said she and Elliott attended Arkansas Beauty School in Conway, so when he asked her for help she was happy to contribute. She said she has given a similar presentation at Arkansas Beauty School.
Elliott said he was inspired by the owner Dennis Prude's involvement with CityYouth Ministries. "He helped me create hope and a new beginning in my life," Elliott said, and he hoped to do the same for the women who visited Tuesday.
Prude said the event was the first of its kind the school has hosted, and he plans to engage in more outreach.

Opening Night falls flat for the world champs as they lose to the Braves, 4-1.
First, the answer to last week's trivia question, which no one even attempted to answer. First, the question: Name the first ex-Phil to be elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame? And the answer is: Nap Lajoie is the first ex-Phil to be elected into the Baseball Hal of Fame, as he was elected as a member of the 1937 class, receiving 168 votes or 83.58% of the vote in the second Hall of Fame election, being that year's highest vote getter. Nap was a member of the Phils for four years, 1896-1900. A new weekly trivia question will be asked at the bottom of this post.
The 2009 regular season started last night as the 2008 World Champions Philadelphia Phillies faced one of their oldest rivals, the Atlanta Braves, in a night game at Citizens Bank Park, which included the raising of the 2008 banner and fireworks, as the Phils wore their special opening night uniforms with gold trim and the 2008 World Series patch.
Sadly, during the game itself, all of the fireworks were on the Atlanta Braves' side as they torched Phils' starter Brett Myers for four runs, via three home runs, in the first two innings. Things looked very promising for Myers as he easily got out the first two batters that he faced, via a fly out to center and a 6-3 ground out. Then Chipper Jones, with the count 3-2, hit a single to left, getting the first hit of the 2009 season. The next batter, Brian McCann then hit a 2-0 pitch into deep right field for a two-run home run, the first home run of the new season, as the Braves took a quick 2-0 lead. In the second, the Braves added to their lead as Jeff Francoeur hit his first home run of the year, a rocket into the left field seats, making it 3-0 Atlanta. One batter later, Jordan Schafer, in his first major league at-bat, made it 4-0 Braves as he slugged a 3-1 fastball into center field. Myers would settle down after that, giving up only five more hits as he pitched a total of six innings. While the Braves were raining on Myers' parade, Derek Lowe was expertly handcuffing the Phils, giving up only two hits in his eight strong innings of work, a one-out ground-rule double to Carlos Ruiz in the third inning, the first Phillies' hit of the season, who was then left stranded on second, and a two-out single to Jimmy Rollins in the sixth, who was then left on first as Jayson Werth lined out right to Lowe to end the inning. The Phils would finally score a run in the ninth inning, getting it off of reliever Mike Gonzalez. Pinch hitter Eric Bruntlett started the inning off with a pinch hit double. Rollins then flied out to right, sending Bruntlett over to third with one out. The next batter, Werth, then singled sharply to left, scoring Bruntlett, collecting the first Phillies RBI of the season, making it a 4-1 Braves' lead. Chase Utley followed with a walk, sending Werth over to second, and bringing up the tying run to the plate in the person of Ryan Howard. Howard, who had been given a steady diet of off-speed pitches all night by Lowe, saw five straight sliders from Gonzalez, working the count full. Thus, Howard was caught off-guard when pitch no. six from Gonzalez was a fast ball, the first one he had seen all night, which was sent right down the pike, for a call third strike. Howard was followed by Raul Ibanez, who, like Howard, was looking for his first hit of the year, and seeing if he could help his new team out early in the season. Sadly, it was not to be, as he struck out, swinging, on a 3-2 fastball, ending the ballgame as a 4-1 Braves' victory.
Brett Myers, in his six innings of work, gave up four runs on eight hits, including three home runs, and a walk while striking out six. His regular season record is now 0-1 with a 6.00 ERA. Jack Taschner, pitching in his first official game as a Phil, pitched a 1-2-3 inning as he struck out a batter. Scott Eyre followed him for two-thirds of an inning, recording a strikeout. Chad Durbin then pitched the final third of an inning, striking out the only batter he would face. Brad Lidge pitched the ninth for the Phils, pitching a 1-2-3 inning, including a strikeout. Derek Lowe pitched eight strong innings for the Braves, staying out of trouble all night, as he gave up only two hits to the Phils as he struck out four. His record is now 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA. Mike Gonzalez pitched an inning, giving up a run on two hits and a walk, while getting two very important strike outs to end the game.
At this point, Eric Bruntlett is leading the team in batting with a 1.000 batting average, as he went 1 for 1 with a double. Carlos Ruiz follows at .333, as he went 1 for 3 on the night with a ground-rule double. Jimmy Rollins and Jayson Werth follow with both men going 1 for 4 for a .250 batting average, with Werth having the Phils', at the moment, only RBI of the season.
The short series will continued tomorrow night at Citizens Bank Park. The game will start at 7:05 pm Eastern. The Phillies will send to the mound their ageless wonder Jamie Moyer, who record is presently 0-0 with a -.– ERA. The Braves will counter with Jair Jurrjens, who's record is also 0-0 with a -.– ERA.
Now, here is this week's trivia question: Name the first ten Phillies' Opening Day Pitchers? You all know where to find the answer. The answer will be posted on Thursday.

This is where things start getting interesting.
The American team will present an interesting set of challenges for Team Canada. Their checking lines are more physical than anything that Team Canada can throw out there, their skill lines are faster, and their goaltender has looked more capable of stealing a game in this tournament. Canada is still the better all-around team but the Americans throw out enough different wrinkles that this should be a game that goes down to the wire and could certainly go either way.
For Canada's part, they seem to have woken up in the second half of the game against Slovakia. Their top-6 forward group has been exceptional and their defense, aside from Ryan Murphy, looked much better. Rielly's strong play in that game led to an increase in icetime and I would think that he hasn't done anything to warrant a decrease heading into this morning's matchup.
As is often the case when Canada plays the USA under IIHF officiating, my guess is that the team who wins this game will be the team who comes out ahead in the special teams battle. Both of these teams play a physical style that can lead to undeserved 5-minute charging penalties called well after the play — but I digress — so taking advantage of our powerplays and playing well on the penaltykill is crucial.
The Americans love to activate their defensemen when transitioning to offense and Seth Jones is an absolute load when he gets to full speed. The play of Canada's top defense pair and how they're able to identify and quarterback the transition defense game is another big key for Canada.
Note: Tyler Biggs has been playing on the third line for Team USA, wearing No. 22.
Once again, I'll throw up my updates during each intermission. Looking forward to a barn-burner!

Security firm McAfee has announced its 2010
Threat Predictions report. According to the report, in 2010 Adobe
will surpass Microsoft as a target for hackers. Hackers traditionally
target Microsoft software products like Office more heavily than
applications and software from other vendors.
McAfee figures
that the popularity of Adobe products like Flash and Reader, two of
the most distributed applications in the world, will lead hackers to
target Adobe applications more in 2010. McAfee reports, "Adobe
product exploitation will likely surpass that of Microsoft Office
applications in 2010."
Hackers will also step up attacks
on social networking sites in 2010 believes McAfee as well as
stepping up attacks on third party applications in general. Hackers
are expected to take advantage of HTML 5 to create Trojans and
botnets that are cross browser capable.
McAfee's Jeff Green
said, "We're now facing emerging threats from the explosive
growth of social networking sites, the exploitation of popular
applications, and more advanced techniques used by cybercriminals,
but we're confident that 2010 will be a successful year for the
cybersecurity community."
Most attacks on social
networking sites are expected to come in the form of rogue apps that
are distributed across the network and use the names on a users
friends list to trick them into clicking links they might not click
otherwise. McAfee believes that cyber criminals will also begin using
botnets that adopt a per-to-peer control scheme that are more
distributed and resilient to techniques used against today's botnets
by security firms.
Adobe software has already been targeted by
hackers this year. In February a flaw
in Adobe Flash was exploited allowing ads on eWeek to
infect the computer of users.

How much is it to adopt a pet?
Our dog adoption fee is $55 and our cat adoption fee is $40. We often have reduced adoption fees. To see our current adoption promotions please visit Promos and Events.
What is the adoption process, and what is included with the adoption of a pet?
The adoption process begins with you coming to the shelter and interacting with the pet you are interested in adopting. Then you complete an adoption application. Once your application is approved, you pay the adoption fee. After your pet has met the mandatory hold requirements, it will be ready to go home!
The following are included in the adoption of a pet:
Can I adopt an animal if I don't live in Orange County?
Yes, you can adopt one of our animals if you live outside of the county. You will still need to provide a valid identification.
When can I expect to pick up my new pet?

Animal Services is partnered with more than 60 rescue partners. For more information and a full list of our rescue partners, please visit our Rescue Partners page.
What are the requirements for a pet owner in Orange County?

If you adopted the animal within the last 10 days from our shelter you may bring your pet to our clinic for an exam. Please call Sandy Register at (407) 254-9137.
Are all animals sterilized prior to adoption?
Animal Services advocates on behalf of the importance of sterilization to help curb pet overpopulation in our community. When adopting from our shelter, the sterilization cost is included in the adoption fee. The majority of animals adopted through OCAS are sterilized, health permitting. In few cases an animal may not be a candidate for sterilization based on an observed health condition or age.
Prior to spay or neuter procedures, each animal receives a pre-surgical examination which helps shelter veterinarians determine whether or not the animal is a candidate for sterilization. In rare cases, a condition may not be apparent and surfaces only during the actual procedure, which could result in an unexpected complication.
Approximately 10% of OCAS?s shelter dogs are diagnosed with heartworm disease. Dogs that are heartworm positive may still be candidates for spay and neuter procedures. Veterinarians conduct a hands-on physical examination of the dog prior to, which includes listening to the dog?s heart and lungs as an aid to whether or not the animal is a candidate for sterilization. Heartworm disease has various stages, which is why the condition itself does not exclude a dog from being spayed or neutered. However, if a veterinarian does not believe the animal is healthy enough for the procedure, they will not proceed. These decisions are made on a case by case basis. It is crucial that any new family fully understand the needs of the animal prior to leaving the shelter, especially one with heartworm disease, or one that has experienced a complication during the spay and neuter process.
Animals with medical conditions that rule them out as candidates for spay or neuter at the time of adoption can still be released to new families. They are welcome back at the shelter for sterilization once they are healthier in the future.
From time to time, the shelter has been asked to provide their policy on the sterilization of heartworm positive dogs. Because each animal?s needs are unique, it is the policy of OCAS that its team of licensed veterinarians maintain full discretion in determining the best treatment plan for sick or injured animals, in addition to which are candidates for surgical procedures.

An animal can be scanned for a potential microchip at any local vet or shelter. You may also post a photo and description of the animal you found on our website here: Lost & Found Pets.
What is a pet microchip and why is it important?
A pet microchip is a small identifying circuit placed under the skin of a dog or cat. These chips are registered with the pet owner's contact information. When a lost dog or cat enters our shelter they are scanned for a microchip. If the animal has a registered microchip, we will contact the owners to attempt to reunite them with their family.
Can my pet receive a microchip at Orange County Animal Services?
Yes, pet microchipping services are available in our clinic Monday through Friday from 1 – 5:30 p.m. The cost is $15 for the microchip service and for the information to be stored at Orange County Animal Services; an additional $9.95 may be paid to register the microchip nationwide.
How long do you hold the animal before adopting it out or euthanizing it?
Orange County Animal Services is required to keep animals that are not displaying ownership (these include tags, a collar, a microchip) for a minimum of three working days prior to adoption or rescue. Animals with signs of ownership are held a minimum of five working days.
If owner information is available, Animal Services will make three attempts to contact the owner by phone. Additionally a certified letter may be sent to the owner notifying him or her that the animal is at our facility. This letter provides an additional 10 days for reclaim.
During the hold period, an application can be submitted at any time. Animals displaying attributes of adoptability (good health, temperament, etc.) will often be held longer to provide an opportunity for adoption. Each animal is reviewed individually and decisions on hold times are made on a case by case basis.
How much does it cost to have my pet humanely euthanized?
Orange County charges a $15 disposal fee both to euthanize animals and to dispose of deceased owned animals. Animals can be brought to Animal Services between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday - Friday and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Owners are not permitted to be present during the procedure.
What is the Pet Pantry?
The Pet Pantry serves to aid financially struggling pet owners. This pantry exists because of the generous donations of the community. It is available for families in need who may have experienced a tight budget month because of unexpected expenses, such as medical injuries or car repairs. The shelter hopes that opening the "Pet Pantry" will result in less pets being surrendered by their families.
If you are in need of utilizing the Pet Pantry please come to the shelter with your proof of Orange County residence. You may pick up food Monday - Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you would like to first verify availability of food in our Pet Pantry is in stock before traveling to the shelter, please send an email to email@example.com.
Is there a review process for unexpected outcomes at the shelter?
The care and well-being of all animals in the custody of Orange County Animal Services (OCAS) is of the utmost importance. We have expanded our peer review process to create a forum that will allow veterinarians to review individual cases after an unexpected outcome at their request, the request of OCAS, or the community. This enhancement will welcome feedback and observations from outside veterinary staff who treated a shelter animal post release and provide a response to those with questions regarding animal care. It will also offer valuable information to the shelter.
