What Are Canker Sores?
Nearly everyone confuses canker sores with cold sores. Canker sores are inside the mouth and cold sores are usually on the sides of the lips. Canker sores are yellow or white in color. It is simple to treat them with some over – the-counter medications. We can treat it at home as well with these natural home remedies.
Nearly everyone with canker sores have a family history in it. It is mainly genetic. There, however, are other factors that are responsible for canker sores especially stress. Stress has an immense effect on the immune system, therefore these sore can be directly related to it.
On the other hand, it is believed that people have the habit of chewing the inside of their lips and cheeks in stress, which causes canker sores. Other than that, deficiency of iron, zinc, folic acid and/or vitamin B12 can contribute as a cause as well. Some acidic foods can cause these sores too. Sharp tooth surfaces or ill-fitting braces and dentures can trigger canker sores.
The first step to natural treatment of canker sores is to determine the cause and eliminate it.
10 Home Remedies For Canker Sores
#1. Avoid Certain Foods
Discomfort could be avoided and healing time can be minimized by refraining from acidic and spicy foods. Acid and spice can cause immense irritation while fighting canker sores. Abrasive foods like almonds and nuts, too, can cause excessive pain.
#2. Salt & Water
Salt and water solution is the easiest home remedy to treat canker sores. Add a dash of salt in a glass of warm water and gargle every day. It will not only ease the pain, but also wash away the germs from the sores prompting them to heal faster.
#3. Non-Foaming Toothpaste
Regular toothpastes irritate the canker sore. Buy non-foaming toothpaste that does not contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). Less irritation will lead to a speedy recovery.
#4. Probiotic Foods
Probiotic foods have good bacteria that fight the poor bacteria and strengthen our immune system. It also helps in digesting food. Yogurt is a natural access to probiotics.
Eat at least 3 tablespoons of yogurt a day. Fermented cheese also contains probiotics, like Cheddar and Swiss cheese. You can add any of these cheeses in your daily meals as these are the best natural remedies for canker sores.
#5. Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties and is one the best natural remedy. Take a cotton swab or a q-tip. Dab a moderate amount of oil on the sore. Try to form a thick layer. Some of the oil will melt away and some will stay on the sore. If it does not stick, then melt a tablespoon of coconut oil and stir half a tablespoon of beeswax in it. Apply this mixture onto the canker sore.
#6. Honey
Organic honey is a remarkable soothing agent and natural home remedy. It relieves the pain of canker sores and helps accelerate the healing process. Rinse your mouth with lukewarm water. Then apply a generous layer of honey on the sores. Do this 2-3 times a day. Apply this, especially at night.
#7. Mouthwash
Keeping your mouth free of all the germs is the best way to treat canker sores. Brushing removes germs and bacteria from the teeth only.
In order to get rid of bacteria in our mouth we need to use a good quality mouthwash. The most important concern is to keep your mouth clean otherwise it can worsen the condition of the sores.
#8. Aloe Vera Gel
We know that aloe vera gel can help us a tremendous deal in fighting sunburns. This plant is an excellent soothing agent that helps cure canker sores. All you are supposed to do is to get natural aloe vera gel that does not contain the green fluid. It should be transparent. Mix the gel with equal amount of water and rinse your mouth with this solution 3 times a day. It will facilitate the healing process.
#9. Cilantro/Coriander Leaves
Cilantro has cleansing properties. It helps eliminate toxic substances. Add 2 tablespoons of cilantro leaves in a glass of water. Boil water with the leaves in it. Then strain the water and let it cool. After it cools down, rinse your mouth with the strained water. Repeat this process at least three times a day.
#10. Right Nutrition
People who suffer with canker sores have most likely the deficiency of iron, zinc, folic acid and/or vitamin B12. Eat foods that contain these nutrients. Get yourself checked by a physician and take supplements of the nutrient that is insufficient in your body.
Try these home remedies for canker sores today and live a pain free life.

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
"There's more to life than books, you know, but not much more." Ah, the immortal words of my beloved Morrissey -- they served as a kind of mantra for me as I stumbled and bumbled through adolescence and early adulthood. Books have been a vital part of my everyday existence for far longer than Moz, though (WHAT?! I KNOW!), serving as my nearest, dearest cultural companion for as long as I can remember.Books especially saved my ass when I was young (as a super-shy, introspective only child, I got accustomed to spending a lot of time alone). Books swooped me away from my loneliness. They became one of my first Easy Escape Routes of Choice -- later I'd add alcohol and men to the mix. (Fortunately, books are socially sanctioned escape routes that I never had to feel lame or ashamed about engaging in night after night -- no hangovers! No awkward "Will he or won't he call?" bullshit!). Do you have books you turn to again and again, ones you rely on in times of fear, or anxiety, or depression? I do. So I thought I'd lay 'em out for you here -- some of the books I (and a couple other xoJ-ers) turn to as "medicine" for various precarious emotional states. Enjoy, and add your own picks in the comments.GRIEF
Our very own Hannah votes for Joan Didion's classic The Year of Magical Thinkingfor any kind of grief-related ailment, and I second that emotion. There's also a random, little-known book I stumbled on a few years back that helped me immensely when I was trying to come to terms with my father's impending death from cancer. It's called If the Spirit Moves You, and it's the memoir of a journalist, Justine Picardie, who goes on a quest to discover whether there's an afterlife when her sister dies of breast cancer in 2000. Picardie meets a bunch of fascinating people (mediums, psychics, spiritualists, et al) and hears some crazy things. Her writing is lovely, and sometimes heartbreaking -- but all in all, super-comforting, cozy and warm, like a cup of milky tea for the tired soul.
Succulent Wild Woman by SARK may seem to reek of stinky-cheesy New Age quackery, but ... it's so much more, I swear. When I was in college, it saved my ass on more than ten occasions. (Side note: I interviewed SARK once, and it was undoubtedly one of the highlights of my early career. That woman is so goddamn ... nice. And genuine. And inspiring.) Succulent is full of so much helpful, nourishing, uplifting goodness -- it's like a super-close girlfriend reminding you about a bunch of things you already know, but keep forgetting. Like how DUH, your body is gorgeous as is, no matter what anyone else f*cking says; and that there's nothing wrong with being single; and that vibrators are your friend, dammit; and that confidence is an inside job. Oh, and SARK is really gung-ho about surrounding yourself with adventurous, inspiring female friends (because obviously). Don't have enough of those? Do what SARK would do: Throw on your brightest, most obnoxious colors and go find some!ANXIETY
When I was a teenager, I was obsessed with using the I-Ching(specifically THIS version of it) as a tool to help manage my near-constant anxiety. Surprisingly, it really helped -- and it still does. For the uninitiated, the I-Ching is an ancient Chinese oracle that helps provide answers about what to do in life's tougher moments. You ask a question, basically, then the book gives you an answer (you have to toss a set of pennies in the air and record how they fall, then look up a corresponding pattern in the book to get your "reading"). I don't rely on it as much as I used to, but there's something incredibly soothing and meditative about the whole routine, and the summaries are generally super-helpful, no matter what ragged emotional state you find yourself in. It may sound a bit woo-woo, but I promise, it's rad.
Awesome xoJane contributor Kathleen Ann says when she's anxious, especially about the state of the world, she'll opt to reread Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's Good Omens "for the frillionth time." Though she notes that it "doesn't really help with the apocalyptic mentality," it does manage to "paint an entertaining picture of it."IDENTITY ISSUES
Most of my identity issues revolve around being adopted (it can f*ck with you, man). I thought I'd read everything there was to read on the subject, but then a therapist recommended a book I'd never heard of: Coming Home to Self. That book saved my hide in a bunch of ways. It's the closest thing to an Adoptee Life Instruction Manual that I've ever come across -- I've cracked it open multiple times when feeling rootless or unsure, and I've underlined, well, just about the entire thing. Seriously, if you're adopted and you have conflicting feelings about your history or uncertainty about where you belong, you need this book.
Hannah says she depends on Franny and Zooey and the graphic novel Blankets when she's having issues with life about figuring out what she's "meant to do with myself and … 'who am I, and what is my place?'"
When I'm depressed, there are a few different books I might turn to, depending on what kind of shittiness I'm feeling. For shittiness around drinking, addiction, or sobriety, it's Drinking: A Love Story all the way. Caroline Knapp's memoir about her passionate affair with alcohol (OK, her alcoholism, and her eventual recovery) is super-powerful and nearly impossible not to relate to. When I need a broader perspective on mental illness, specifically on the gross black tar of depression, I pull out The Noonday Demon, an "atlas" of all things depression. It's a huge book but a surprisingly quick undertaking, probably because the entire thing is so fascinating, and useful, and compulsively readable. And if I'm feeling sad or sorry for myself about being hurt by anything romance or dude-related, I bust out one of my favorite books from high school: a book of short stories called Lustby Susan Minot. The title story is just ... perfection. I remember first reading it for an English class, and feeling that stunning smack of recognition -- THIS IS ME. It haunts me still, though all the stories in the book are pretty great (and they're all about men, women, and the minefield of relationships). Highly recommended for your next dating or heartbreak-related freakout.
What are some of the books you've used as "medicine"?

More than a third of the state's pharmacies have not been inspected in four years or more, according to a state audit released Thursday.
The N.C. Board of Pharmacy regulates 2,740 pharmacies and conducts routine and investigatory inspections.
"The failure to regularly inspect pharmacies increases the risk of problems and violations that could threaten public health and safety," the audit said.
State law does not require regular pharmacy inspections, and the board does not have a policy on inspection frequency.
The board has focused on investigations and inspections based on complaints, the audit said. The board's method of adding up its inspections did not indicate whether they were routine or based on complaints, the audit said, leading to an overstatement of inspections.
In its response, the Pharmacy Board said it had updated its record-keeping to "minimize the risk that pharmacies would be overlooked during inspection assignments."
The board is improving the information it collects and how it's reported, the response said.

The Matthew Flinders memorial statue.
Euston Station, London, UK. 2014
In 2013, I was commissioned by the Government of South Australia to design and create a statue to commemorate the life of Capt. Matthew Flinders RN, who, in 1800, circumnavigated and charted the Australian coastline and gave the continent its European name. The Matthew Flinders memorial statue was unveiled at Australia House, London on 18th July 2014 by The Duke of Cambridge before being moved to its permanent location at Euston Station.
'I should like to congratulate the sculptor, Mark Richards, for producing a beautiful statue and for telling the story of Captain Flinders with such elegance.'
The Duke of Cambridge
"Mark proved himself to be a formidable sculptor both conceptually and artistically, ultimately developing a work that captures the character of Matthew Flinders and communicates his story superbly."
Bill Muirhead, Agent-General for South Australia.
'Not only did Mark come up with a novel design, but he suggested that we might raise the substantial finance through the sale of maquettes of the statue. We have, at the time of writing. Sold 60 (out of 75) maquettes and thereby not only financed the project if full, but generated a surplus which has kick-started a scholarship at Flinders University in Adelaide. While the Committee members were instrumental in generating sales, the success of the project is largely thanks to Mark's suggestion.'
John Allen
Chairman, Matthew Flinders Memorial Committee
'The Steering Committee would like to acknowledge the work of the genius artist who is Mark Richards FRBS. Not only has he sculptured an extraordinarily beautiful statue on time and within budget but he has been an absolute delight to work with. Utterly flawless!'

Pastoral Care
The welfare of the Boarders is a high priority at Southwell and the children have access to an extensive pastoral care network. The Boarding House Director, House Mother and House Master and their assistants, all form part of the academic staff. This helps to create continuity for the students and means that the Boarding Staff are fully aware of the Boarders' day to day activities.
Having qualified teachers within the Boarding House also means that the students are supported academically, particularly with regards to completing their homework. The House Mother, House Master and the Chaplain all live within the school grounds and play an integral part in the life of the Boarding House. International Students who board are further supported by a staff member who holds the position of International Student Manager.

Land Judging
Land Judging is a high school competition that challenges students to gain a better understanding of soil structure and land evaluation. Land judging enables each participant to learn how to recognize the physical features of the soil, determine land capability for crop production, and evaluate management practices needed for proper stewardship. Soil, land and home-site evaluation provide a setting for students to investigate the soils in their region, the environment that surrounds them and their effect on their daily lives.
NRDs work with area schools to host Land Judging contests all over the state each fall. Regional winners go on to compete at the state contest.
Range Judging
Range Judging is a high school competition that challenges students to gain a better understanding of Nebraska rangelands which makes up half of the State's land area. Range judging enables each participant to learn how to recognize range plants, range sites and the need for proper grazing practices.
NRDs work with the Society for Range Management, NRCS and UNL Extension to host Range Judging contests all over the state each September.

Almost everyone knows CEO pay is out of control. It surged 16 percent at big companies last year, according to The New York Times, and the typical CEO raked in $15.1 million.
Meanwhile, the median wage continued to drop, adjusted for inflation.
What's less well-known is that you and I and other taxpayers are subsidizing this sky-high executive compensation. That's because corporations deduct it from their income taxes, causing the rest of us to pay more in taxes to make up the difference.
This tax subsidy to corporate executives from the rest of us ought to be one of the first tax expenditures to go, when and if Congress turns to reforming the tax code.
We almost got there 20 years ago. When he was campaigning for the presidency, Bill Clinton promised that if elected he'd end the deductibility of executive pay in excess of $1 million.
Once in office, though, his economic advisers urged him to modify his pledge to allow corporations to deduct executive pay in excess of $1 million if the pay was linked to corporate performance — that is, to the value of the company's shares.
Clinton agreed with the majority of his advisers, and a new provision was added to the Internal Revenue Code, Section 162(m), allowing corporations to deduct from their tax bills executive compensation in excess of $1 million — but only if the compensation is tied to company performance.
How has it worked out? Even Sen. Charles Grassley, the ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, agrees it's been a sham: "162(m) is broken. ... It was well-intentioned. But it really hasn't worked at all. Companies have found it easy to get around the law. It has more holes than Swiss cheese. And it seems to have encouraged the options industry. These sophisticated folks are working with Swiss-watch-like devices to game this Swiss-cheese-like rule."
One such game has been to hand out performance awards on the basis of nothing more than an upward drift in the value of the stock market as a whole, over which the executives played no role other than watch as their company's stock price rose along with that of almost every other company.
Another game has been to back-date executive stock options to match past dips in the companies' share price, thereby exaggerating the subsequent upswing and creating fatter "performance" bonuses.
Officially, companies are required to report all options issuances within two days of the date of issue. Unofficially, companies — and their executives — still have huge discretion over when they issue options, aided by a small industry of compensation experts and accountants.
A third game has been to lowball the earnings estimates that set the initial thresholds for performance pay. Then, when the real earnings come in over those estimates (as they almost always do), companies give out fat "performance" awards.
Shareholders get taken to the cleaners by all these maneuvers. Executive pay is skyrocketing even at companies whose share prices have dropped.
But it's not only shareholders who lose. You and I and other taxpayers are also being ripped off, because this so-called "performance" pay is deducted from corporations' taxable earnings.
The Economic Policy Institute estimates that from 2007 to 2010, a total of $121.5 billion in executive compensation was deducted from corporate earnings, and roughly 55 percent of this total was for performance-based compensation. Given all the games, it's likely much of this "performance" was baloney.
So what's the answer? As I argued 20 years ago, keep the pay cap at $1 million and get rid of the performance-pay loophole. Corporations shouldn't be able to deduct executive pay in excess of $1 million, period.

About Mischa Photography
Mischa & Brianne Purcell are passionate photographers with fine art backgrounds, extensive technical training and over a decade of experience. They specialize in vivid artistic images and candid emotional moments. "We want our photographs to make you smile, touch your heart, and take your breath away."
Since 2003, Mischa Photography has been based out of a San Francisco warehouse in the artsy hub where Mission District and Potrero Hill meet. In 2011, Mischa Photography expanded to include a Sacramento location. This Sacramento storefront includes both a street front gallery and a full portrait studio.
Mischa serves as past President and continues on the board of the Professional Photographers of the Greater Bay Area. This group of professional peers has also selected him to teach seminars and classes for its members. His work has earned him many awards and honors, including "album designer of the year – 2010, 2012 & 2014" "wedding photographer of the year – 2012, 2013 & 2014" and "Image of the year – 2013".
About Mischa
Mischa's interest in photography began at 8 years old when he had the opportunity to learn from Neil White, family friend and photography professor at SF State. Mischa learned, at this very young age, how to see life through the eyes of a camera. Graduating from U.C.S.C. with a B.A. in Fine Art/Photography, Mischa began working as a professional photographer using film and printing in a darkroom in Santa Cruz. Making the move to San Francisco in 2003, he established the independent studio known today as Mischa Photography.
Mischa's genuine wide smile and signature laugh help to create a joyous mood and ensures a comfortable relationship between himself and his clients. Mischa's natural interests in technology and fine art have kept him on the cutting edge of what wedding and portrait photography can be. Whether shooting candid photojournalistic moments or creating a dramatic showstopper, Mischa is at the top of his field.
When not busy photographing, Mischa enjoys playing with his son, rock climbing, wine tasting, hosting dinner parties to share his cooking talents, riding his fixed gear bicycle, snowboarding, single-malt Scotch fueled Scrabble tournaments and exploring his geekier side by building his own computers and camera gadgets. He has always loved to travel and looks forward to many years of traveling and photography with his wife, Brianne, their son Molokai and their dogs, Little Man and Marzipan.
About Brianne
Brianne's fascination with photography began early, asking for a camera of her very own for Christmas when she she was 7. That hand-me-down 110mm started her love affair with capturing moments. Although her technique has matured and her equipment has been substantially upgraded, photography is still what she loves to do most.
Brianne prefers natural light and loves emotional connections, caught at just the right moment. She strives to tell the story, as she would want it told, for each and every client. If you want a fantastic photojournalistic photographer Brianne is definitely the right photographer for you.
Brianne, who usually goes by Bri(e), is totally infatuated with her new son Molokai and her tiny dogs, Little Man and Marzipan. She was born and raised in Santa Cruz and made the move to San Francisco in the Spring of 2009 to work with Mischa Photography. She loves eggs benedict and root beer floats (not together). Doesn't like mushrooms & can't stand cilantro. She's a self-taught knitter who compulsively smells new yarn and usually rewrites patterns to her liking. She has a major thing for good chocolate and jammy zinfandel. She likes to sing in the car, if it's your birthday, and often to inanimate objects. She has always wanted to travel more, and is looking forward to many years of breathtaking images and great bottles of wine with Mischa.

Z and Keller at the same time: SIIIIIIIICK!
Somebody called to inquire about our rental property. Z said, "Do they want to rent it?" I told him that it was a possibility. He said, "If they do, that will be a dream come true for me." Didn't realize the rental property was part of his dreams?!
Zachary and I were discussing God vs. evil. He said, "I bet hell is so happy everytime I get in trouble." Then as we continued in the conversation about God being able to overcome evil, he slightly missed the point when he said, "He comes over evil to me a lot." I asked what he meant and he said, "You know, like everytime I get in trouble!"

[Kulikova's]…previous recording was enthusiastically reviewed (J/F 2010) and was one of my Critic's Choice recordings for the year. This one is every bit as good. She has a beautiful sound and a real musician's heart. She has technique to spare, but never uses it as an end in itself. She shapes her phrases beautifully, with a near-perfect sense of balance and pacing. Her playing is a joy to hear.
This is a thoroughly satisfying recital.
To read the complete review, please visit American Record Guide online.
The Russian-born guitarist, Irina Kulikova, has been making a habit of winning first prizes, the most recent being the prestigious 2008 'Alhambra' International Competition. It was not unexpected, Kulikova already having built a concert career with appearances in major venues throughout Europe. This would appear to be her debut recording and it provides the opportunity to perform her guitar transcription of Bach's First Cello Suite. She is certainly not the first to have made such a transcription, but the accompanying booklet offers nothing in comparing the content of her arrangement with others before. So taken at face value it would seem a well-thought through adaptation keeping within the Baroque mode. The other major work, Castelnuovo-Tedesco's Guitar Sonata 'In Homage to Boccherini', also appeared a few months back in another of Naxos's Guitar Laureate discs from Andras Csaki. I spoke very favourably of him, but apart from Kulikova's rather brighter sound in the upper octaves, there is little to chose between them. Indeed the Naxos series shows just how many richly talented young guitarists we have emerging from competitions. Kulikova shows through this nicely varied disc—Del Rey's California Suite a pleasingly lightweight score—a perfectly clean technique with left-hand shifts that are so unobtrusive, while in Tarrega's Recuerdos de la Alhambra the precision of her right hand gives a most even 'accompaniment' to the melody. She does, of course, have the massive benefit of a superb sound from Naxos's celebrated Canadian recording team.

Brian Shaw smiles. Or maybe it's a grimace. It wasn't that long ago that he was the one who had to work his way through back-to-back games.
The Lakers assistant coach knows all too well the pratfalls that await, the 24-hour endurance checks lingering in the very near future for a team that has fattened up on home games.
The Lakers coasted through the first month and a half of this season, mostly sleeping in their own beds, strolling through game after game at Staples Center, experiencing only three situations in which they played on consecutive nights.
Welcome to the rest of their schedule. Last Friday at home they beat Minnesota, then flew to Salt Lake and lost badly to Utah on Saturday. So began a period during which 22 of 32 Lakers games are scheduled in back-to-back sets, a majority of them on the road.

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — The New York Mets fired the man playing their mascot, Mr. Met, after he made an obscene gesture at a fan. Video of the incident quickly went viral and the team apologized. It's not the first time a sports mascot has gotten into trouble with their team though.
In 1988, the Phillie Phanatic got into a fight with Tommy Lasorda after mocking him with a fake doll of the Dodgers manager. "I hate the Phillie Phanatic," Lasorda wrote in his 2015 biography.
In 2007, the Mariner moose accidentally hit Red Sox outfielder Coco Crisp with his ATV! The Pittsburgh Pirates fired one of their "racing pierogies" when they bashed the team on Facebook after a 2010 loss. In the college game, Oklahoma's mascot was let go after harassing opposing fans in 2015.
Some of Mr. Met's rival mascots have mockingly tried to explain the incident on Twitter.

Clinical practicum is a supervised training experience designed to teach clinical skills.
All Psy.D. students begin their training with a pre-practicum course that prepares them for clinical work. In the classroom, they learn how to conduct biopsychosocial interviews, identify crisis intervention situations, and write progress notes and initial intake reports for prospective patients.
The pre-practicum is followed by nine semesters of fieldwork experience, beginning in the first year of the Psy.D. program and progressing through the third year of doctoral study. Through the practicum, which is undertaken in conjunction with the required academic coursework, each Psy.D. student engages in a planned sequence of developmentally graded professional experiences, including intake assessment and evaluation; individual, couples, family, and group psychotherapies; and psychological testing.
Students in clinical practicum work as health service psychologists-in-training at sites approved by the assistant director of clinical training for the Psy.D. program. The program maintains active affiliations with a variety of practicum sites that provide quality clinical experiences for students. Students may choose from over fifty approved sites, including regional and community hospitals, university medical centers, VA medical centers, mental health community centers, community service agencies, correctional centers, and private practice offices. Most practicum sites require a three-semester commitment from students, after which they may apply to different practicum sites to further develop their clinical practice abilities.
The designated practicum sites are committed to training professional psychologists and permit the student to be part of the clinical team. Albizu gives preference to sites that use evidence-based interventions, state-of-the-art psychological assessment techniques, and the biopsychosocial model of case conceptualization and intervention—all within an overarching philosophy informed and guided by respect for individual and cultural diversity.
At each practicum site, clinical work is supervised by a designated, on-site supervisor. The practicum supervisor, who is responsible for the student's entire practicum experience at the site, must be a psychologist with a doctoral degree, licensed in his or her jurisdiction of practice and an employee of the agency or institution that has agreed to provide supervised experience. The Psy.D. faculty, program director, and assistant director of clinical training maintain free and open communication with practicum supervisors in order to effectively monitor and facilitate student progress. Students receive a minimum of one hour per week of face-to-face supervision. Additional individual and group supervision hours are encouraged.
Please note that student employment cannot be used to fulfill the practicum requirement.
Students are also required to complete a clinical internship during the fifth year of their doctoral programs. Students apply for competitive internships nationwide at medical schools, mental health centers, VA hospitals, university counseling centers, private hospitals, prisons, state hospitals, and other community sites.
The cornerstone of the Psy.D. program is the balance between the sound psychological knowledge obtained in the classroom and the applied experience of the supervised practicum. Throughout clinical training, the student is provided with opportunities to blend theory and practice through an integrated and sequential learning process. The most significant learning occurs through this integration of academics and supervised experience.
The Psy.D. program's view of clinical training is consistent with the accreditation standards of the American Psychological Association (APA) and the highly regarded guidelines for professional psychology training developed by the Northern California Society for Psychoanalytic Psychology (NCSPP). We believe the developmental and interpersonal processes of clinical training should be purposeful and directed. Consistent with this approach, the following competencies are developed through the clinical practicum experience:
Ethical and Legal Standards
Demonstrated knowledge of current ethical principles and Florida law pertaining to the practice of professional psychology. Demonstrated ability to consistently and appropriately apply these principals and laws, seeking consultation as needed, and to understand their implications in protecting the persons served, the profession, and general society.
Individual and Cultural Diversity
Demonstrated knowledge, sensitivity, and skill when working with individuals, groups, and communities representing various aspects of individual and cultural diversity, including, among others, ethnicity, race, gender, age, sexual orientation, disability status, and special population. Demonstrated understanding of how interactions between and among individuals and communities are shaped by diversity variables.
Professional Values and Attitude
Demonstrated professional values, attitudes, and behaviors that reflect integrity, personal responsibility, and adherence to professional standards.
Communication and Interpersonal Skills
Demonstrated use of appropriate communication and interpersonal skills for all health service activities and interactions.
Demonstrated competency in conducting assessments ranging from the administration and interpretation of standardized tests to behavioral observations and clinical interviews.
Demonstrated knowledge of evidence-based practice and the scientific and theoretical bases of intervention. Performance of interventions using either evidence-based psychotherapy or environmental modification, depending on what is best suited to the situation.
Demonstrated knowledge of supervisory practices, including the need for supervisors to act as role models and maintain responsibility for activities they oversee.
Consultation and Interpersonal/Interdisciplinary Skills
Demonstrated consultation and interpersonal/interdisciplinary skills as reflected in collaborations with other professionals in health service psychology in order to address a problem, seek or share knowledge, or promote effectiveness in professional activities.

SOURCE: Lucking, David. "'And All Things Change Them to the Contrary': Romeo and Juliet and the Metaphysics of Language." English Studies 78, no. 1 (January 1997): 8-18.
In the essay that follows, Lucking investigates the way oxymoron functions in Romeo and Juliet, focusing particularly on the way Romeo and Juliet employ this rhetorical device.
While the fact that oxymoron is the most pervasive rhetorical figure in Romeo and Juliet is unlikely to escape the notice of any reasonably attentive reader, the significance that is to be attributed to this predominance is by no means equally apparent. Critics have evinced widely varying views as to whether the frequency with which this device recurs is to be regarded as a key to character or to the stage of development attained by Shakespeare's own art at the time of composition, and whether in either case its use is indicative of control of the verbal...

Sean Hayes (NY attorneys-at-law) the Chair of the Korea Practice Team at IPG and one of the hosts of this blog was interviewed and quoted by Stars & Stripes.
"However, a New York attorney working in Seoul said the fact that Flippin was an American played a crucial role in his receiving what is an "exceptional" sentence in South Korea.
"It's kind of a political statement, and I think the judge probably was influenced (by politics)," said Sean Hayes, who represents mostly non-Koreans.
Foreigners typically receive longer sentences than South Koreans for violent crimes, he said, and the Flippin case was seen as especially outrageous because of the woman's age, the fact that the attack lasted for several hours, and because she sustained injuries not seen in a typical rape.
But there were other factors at play, such as South Korea's "fervor over sex crimes," he said. The South Korean press followed the case closely, and, especially with national elections approaching in 2012, any issues involving the U.S. — including servicemember misbehavior — are being turned into political issues, he said.
"The media is looking strongly at these cases because politicians have spoken out," he said."

Reducing fraud is goal of new vehicle licensing regulations
Steps are being taken to reduce motor vehicle fraud in Nebraska with new regulations taking effect Jan. 1.
No transfer in ownership of a motor vehicle shall occur until the vehicle has been properly titled and sales tax and registration has been paid, according to Sharon Wood, Dawson County treasurer who received training in the new requirements.
"This is an issue we have not pushed in the past, but according to the Nebraska State Patrol the treasurer and employees shall pursue due diligence and advise the taxpayer that evading the tax is a Class IV felony," Wood said.
Information will be provided to those who do not attempt to pay sales tax or register their vehicle and the information will be forward to the Nebraska State Patrol, she said.
Also beginning Jan. 1, it will be the requirement of the treasurer to run all out of state vehicles through NMVITIS which is similar to CARFAX. This will provide past history on the title to the treasurer regarding the brands or legends that are required to be on the vehicle title.
The treasurer cautioned that this will take an few additional minutes to process an out of state title through the Nebraska registration process.
Vehicle renewals can be done on line by going to www.clickdmv.ne.gov. using a credit or debit card which initiates a user fee or a $3 portal fee for e-check. On-line renewals are not allowed on-line if you have an address change or if your insurance information has not been provided to the State of Nebraska.
If you have moved from one county to another in Nebraska or from Wyoming or North Carolina, your vehicle is not eligible for renewal until your current registration expires.

Edward Humes' "A Man and His Mountain: The Everyman Who Created Kendall Jackson and Became America's Greatest Wine Entrepreneur"
Before Jess Jackson became the billionaire who transformed the landscape of California wine production, he was a police officer. And a prosecutor. And a real-estate lawyer. "A Man and His Mountain" delves into the life of Jackson and his quest to make Americans appreciate good wine.
From his first vineyard in Lakeport, California to the creation of Kendall-Jackson, one of the biggest brands of premium wines in the US, author Edward Humes explores the innovative, and initially derided decisions of the man he describes as this country's greatest wine entrepreneur.

Dear CSA Member,
I'm not sure how much positive energy a potato can carry, but this year, the potatoes that we have pulled from the ground have raised our spirits and brought a bit of joy to the years' harvest. They are just beautiful to look at and delicious to eat. I don't think we have ever had such a fine potato crop. If no unforeseen natural disaster is lurking, you should have a good share of potatoes throughout the fall.
The fields are being readied for winter as spent crops are tilled under and a cover crop of winter rye is broadcast. The winter rye will sprout and grow even in the cold fall conditions and will blanket the fields through the winter months. Next spring it will start to grow again and will be tilled under when we plow. It acts as a cover crop for the winter and organic matter in the spring.
Enjoy the vegetables-Deborah for everyone at Stoneledge Farm

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
About twice a year, I have this urge to throw away all of my crap and buy new, streamlined crap that is all very minimalist and goes together. This urge usually surfaces after reading Martha Stewart LIVING or REAL SIMPLE or a similar publication.
Other times, I have the urge to keep all of my current stuff and just buy MORE STUFF AND THINGS. Sometimes this urge is room specific, like guest bathroom. Sometimes there is a theme, like home brewing. Sometimes it is just stuff that will make me prettier.
Right now it's kitchen-themed. SHOCKING. But since I am moving soonish, I have decided that for every item I buy, I must throw away an item from the same room. Not that I'm going to buy everything on this list; some of it is pricey. This is a wish list. Or something my family can reference when my birthday approaches. (It's in August just so everyone is aware.)
What I want: First and foremost, this SANDWICH CAKE PAN.
What I will throw out: All of the Tupperware that is missing lids (so basically all of the Tupperware).
I'm usually not that huge on novelty cake pans because I can't decorate for crap. Sure, the cake will start out looking like a skull, but once I'm done frosting it, it will look like that fresco of Jesus that one lady "fixed."
But the sandwich cake is so simple, even I couldn't make it look like something else. The pan does all the work! If you can make a sandwich, you can make this cake.
And you know I can make a sandwich.
What I want: On a more elegant note, this enamel baking set.
What I will throw out: All of the random glass bowls left behind by party guests.
Look at how muted and adult it looks! Look at how it all nests together so perfectly! It's dishwasher safe, oven safe, and since it's porcelain fused to heavy-gauge steel, relatively Claire safe.
What I want: This cutting board that makes sure you always have a big enough pie crust.
What I will cast from the kitchen and never speak of again: The plastic cutting board that I stabbed a hole in this morning while trying to chop a frozen banana.
I am forever rolling out dough into weird, non-circular shapes. I don't even know how I do it. I'll be rolling it out, thinking it looks circular, only to place it in the pie dish and find out that NOPE it's really more of rounded trapezoid. This board would keep me on track.
What I want: Educational kitchen towels that teach you neat facts about wine pairing, nutrition, and cocktails.
What I will banish: All of the faded holiday-themed towels with burn marks on them.
Not only are these towels neat looking, they can totally help you impress people. Imagine you're hosting a cocktail party, and some requests a drink that you're not quite sure how to make. EASY. You just knock over a glass of water, grab your Classic Cocktail towel, and read the instructions while mopping up your mess.
What I want:Copper mugs for Moscow Mule's.
What I will reject: Cheap Hurricane glasses that I never use.
I know that there's a whole spiel about the pure copper maintaining a lower temperature for longer, but I just want these because they are so pretty. Copper is one of my favorite things to look at. If my current, red KitchenAid mixer ever breaks I'm buying this baby.
What I want: A coffee mug every Twin Peaks fan should have.
I love the font. I love the reference. I love coffee.
What I will break to make room: EVERY. SINGLE. CHICKEN. MUG.
We, as a household, are currently in possession of way too many coffee mugs. It doesn't help that we collect Starbucks City Mugs (and now family members have started getting them for us), but I think the the real solution to this mug overpopulation issue is to just trash all these damn chicken mugs. I hate them. They are tacky and I hate them.
Resolved: whether or not I buy the Twin Peaks mug, I'm vanquishing those chicken mugs.
What I want: This artichoke vase would make my whole kitchen look healthier.
What I will dispose of: Random vases that came with delivered flowers.
I am dying over this extremely detailed artichoke vase. I love artichokes, but always forget that I have it within my power to buy and cook them. This would help remind me!
What I want: The equipment to start making my own pasta.
What I will throw out: The Magic Bullet that my college roommate broke.
Dried pasta has been me bumming out, as of late. And, if you think about it, it's surprising that I don't already make my own pasta.
If I end up sucking at making fresh pasta, I can always use the pasta maker for rolling out Sculpey and the drying rack for necklaces or something.
So there is my greedy list of things I want in my kitchen right this instant. I doubt I will end up with all of these treasures. Either way though, I've identified a lot of junk that I can get rid of.

I should have bought this piece BIGGER so she could appear to drive off of the wall but this works and looks great. Love the color the style and the happy feeling as do my guests. My daughter recently returned from Italy where she did ride on Vespas. A fun memory for her when she visits and aspirational for me on a future trip.
A contemporary version of traditional fancy dancing at a pow-wow. The brush strokes create the movement with color as the emphasis.

PrLuke 2:21–52 (ESV)
21 And at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 And when the time came for their purification according to the Law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every male who first opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord") 24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the Law of the Lord, "a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons." 25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. 27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the Law, 28 he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said,
