You also have to see to it that you will give importance on how the facility will look. It is important that the facility that you will be building is the one that will be comfortable to the current patient and should also be inviting to your prospects. And that is why in this article that we will be talking about the many different factors that you need to consider whenever you will be designing a medical office.
See to it that you will be able to consider the location that the facility has first.

Jeremy Lin on issues of worthiness and deserving
Jeremy Lin is the first Asian-American to win a NBA championship as his team the Toronto Raptors defeated the Golden State Warriors in the 2019 Finals. In 2012, while playing just his second season in the league, Lin became widely known when he helped the Knicks make a successful late push for the Playoffs. Since then he was kept under scrutiny by fans and experts who almost seemed unsure of how to deal with an Asian-American kid playing pretty neat basketball.

Navalishinsky Canyon
About sight / Navalishinsky Canyon / Surroundings Of Sochi / Russia
About sight: Navalishinsky Canyon
Navalishinsky Canyon may be considered as one of the most curious places in Sochi, where you can get to a primeval relic forest. Semi-darkness always reigns in yew & boxwood groves and there you can feel the atmosphere of the tropics.
Navalishinsky Canyon is near the village Krasnaya Volya, 8 kilometers to the north of Khosta (between the Central District of Sochi and Adler). If you go there by car, it is worth combining a visit to the Navalishinsky Canyon with a visit to the Vorontsovskaya cave. This trip will take you a whole day, if you will tour of both places without haste.
In the area of Sochi relic forests of yews and box trees survived only in three places. These are the Canyon of the Psakho River, yew & boxwood grove of Khosta, and Navalishinsky Canyon where there are perhaps the most picturesque places.
Entrance of the Navalishinsky Canyon is one kilometer from the village Krasnaya Volya. If you decided to look around the whole canyon and have a trip down the bed of the Khosta river to a camping (approximately 1.5 km), you should agree on it at the entrance, so that they could send a jeep for you to the camping. After the trip down the canyon it will be very difficult and tiring to come back up to the entrance of the canyon.
When coming to the Navalishinsky Canyon you should follow this plan. At the entrance there is stairway leading to the bottom of the canyon. You climb it down to the White rocks. It is the most interesting and beautiful place of the Navalishinsky Canyon. There is a small waterfall between the rocks of white color.
From the waterfall you should go down the most picturesque path in the shade of relic box trees to the place where the Khosta river falls into a small running-water lake. The lake has got the name of the «Saint Pool», and you can have a dip in it and enjoy the surrounding nature.
After that, if you have not much time, you should climb up the same path to the entrance of the canyon, and if you agreed that they will fetch you from the camping, you can have a walk up the river. On the way you will see the most picturesque places of the relic forest, where not only trees but also stones and ground are covered with mosses.
In some places this trip will be rather hard, you will even have to get over stone blockages, but it's worth the effort. Almost everywhere you will see relic yews and box trees.
The attractiveness of a private trip to the Navalishinsky Canyon is also that they usually don't bring noisy excursions there, so there won't be as much people as, say, in the canyon of the Psakho river. So, you are nearly sure to wander along the canyon in solitude.

I had to issue that warning to myself yesterday. I love looking at big, old homes and imagining what it would be like to live there.
Spring has sprung here in Philadelphia, and I've been exploring the neighborhoods. Recently – in my mind – I moved into a coach house big enough for three families and a mansion built in 1752, nearly 130 years before Durango was on the map. With each move, of course, came the inflated lifestyle to match.
Lifestyle inflationLifestyle inflation, or lifestyle creep, is the tendency to spend more as we earn more. We can also inflate our lifestyle after we pay off debts and then spend that money unconsciously.
Increased spending is not always a bad thing. It's perfectly natural to want a more comfortable lifestyle as your income increases. But left unchecked, lifestyle inflation can trade our future for today's desires.
Audit your lifestyleI suggest checking for lifestyle creep every year, right after you finish your taxes. Review your finances in these five areas:
Your budget: Do you have and follow a budget that includes accumulating money for less-than-monthly expenses? If your answer is "no," create one.Bank and credit card statements: Look for luxuries, indulgences, overspending and recurring charges. This is an opportunity to eliminate waste. When I reviewed my statements, I found a gym membership that had continued to bill us after cancellation.Housing costs: Calculate the percentage of your take-home pay that you spend on housing. If it's more than 35 percent, your lifestyle today may harm your future. Also, review how much it costs to maintain your home. Some of the old homes I've looked at come with a budget-busting number of renovation projects.Debt: If you have consumer debt, such as credit cards, car payments or a personal loan, it's a symptom of living beyond your income. Total your balances and divide that number by 12 or 18 months. That's the amount you'll need to pay off each month to be debt-free next year.Emergency fund: If you are debt-free, congratulations! Now, do you have an emergency fund equal to three to six months of living expenses? If not, it's time to build one by redirecting lifestyle spending into your savings account.Don't delay actionBeing debt-free, having an emergency fund and saving at least 15 percent of your income is a clear indication that your lifestyle is congruent with your earning power.
If your personal audit revealed areas where you need to make changes to reach these goals, take action right now. Like pulling off a Band-Aid, quick is best.

Spring Cleaning Tips and Tricks
Did you know that you don't have to spend more than 10 minutes each day to spring clean your home? The tips that you're about to get is perfect if you have a very busy work schedule and you can't possible allot an hour or so to cleaning the house. These tips are super helpful especially if you also have children to take care of.
How many times have you freaked out because somebody announced that they're going to visit you and you never had cleaned your home in weeks? These instances are the fright of a homeowner's life. To make sure that you don't have to go through this ordeal ever again, simply follow the 10-minute cleaning guide that we have below.
- Monday:Clean the bathrooms.
If you're just like everyone else, you'll say that cleaning the bathroom is the worst job that you can do. It is best that you do this on a Monday when you just had a couple of days off from work so you're not that stressed yet. Spend your 10 minutes in cleaning the mirrors, polishing the sink, scrubbing the toilet, and clearing the countertops. If you have more than one bathroom at home, and it's impossible to clean all in 10 minutes, just focus on one. You can clean the other bathrooms in the following weeks.
- Tuesday:Straighten up the kitchen.
Use your 10 minutes to scrub the countertop, sweep the floor, clear the refrigerator, and wipe the sinks and oven. Keep in mind that the dishes should always be cleaned after using them. If your kitchen is pretty clean and you still have time, try to remove all the junk in the pantry, cupboards, and drawers.
- Wednesday:Declutter the living room.
The living room must be the messiest room in your home because it is most often. Here is where you'll need your top organization skills. Declutter the living room by removing everything that doesn't belong to it. Place those things in a box to be sorted out later. Don't forget to do some dusting and brushing as well. Lastly, vacuum the carpet and the upholstery.
- Thursday:Organize the master bedroom.
Everyone's sanctuary is the bedroom, so it has to be kept clean at all times. Change the sheets, fold clothes, vacuum the room, and dust the furniture. Don't forget to make the bed, fluff the pillows, and arrange them nicely on the bed.
- Friday:Handle the kids' rooms.
The kids' rooms are always in a mess, so there's no use to prioritize cleaning them. Fridays are also the last day of school so you can get the kids helping out with this chore. Get them inside the room and set the timer for 10 minutes. Challenge them to get everything straightened out before the timer buzzes off. If they make it, then they get a surprise for dinner. By making it fun, kids will help be more than happy to help you with your cleaning chores.
These are the tips that would make spring cleaning easier for you. If you think you still need help with spring cleaning, don't hesitate to hire professional Minneapolis house cleaners. They're more than ready to provide assistance.

John Heenan, candidate for U.S. Congress in Montana, issued the following statement:
When Greg Gianforte introduced his bill H.R. 1519 "Unlocking Public Lands Act," I knew there was good reason to be alarmed. Every Montanan who has children and grandchildren, or who loves our way of life, or who understands the importance of the tourism and outdoor industry to Montana's economy should be alarmed too.
A recent Bozeman Daily Chronicle article (Saturday, March 24), reported on an "unlocking public lands" meeting hosted by Gianforte featuring hand-picked lobbyists rather than regular Montanans. These should be public meetings with people from all perspectives represented, but Gianforte has long failed to understand how strongly we Montanans feel about out public access rights.
"Unlocking" is simply corporate code for taking away our cherished wilderness and handing it over to oil, gas, gold mining and timber corporations. The 700,000 acres of wilderness study areas that Gianforte and his wealthy corporate donors want to "unlock" is a massive takeaway from those of us who enjoy hunting, hiking, biking and recreating on public lands. It is your water that will be polluted and exploited for the benefit and profit of multinational corporations and ultra-rich donors. Even worse, the negative impact on the outdoor industry and manufactured goods businesses that employ tens of thousands of Montanans will be significant.
The wilderness Gianforte is going after are Axolotl Lakes, the Bell/Limekiln Canyons, the Henneberry Ridge, the Hidden Pasture, the Twin Coulee, the Black Sage, the Blacktail Mountains, the Centennial Mountains, the East Fork Blacktail Deer Creek, the Farlin Creek, the East Pioneers, the Ruby Mountains, the Bitter Creek, the Billy Creek, the Bridge Coulee, the Seven Blackfoot, the Terry Badlands, the Hoodoo Mountain, the Wales Creek, Antelope Creek, the Cow Creek, the Dog Creek South, the Ervin Ridge, the Stafford and the Woodhawk.
You may not know the location of each of these special places in Montana. Still, the people whose businesses and lives revolve around them may not want them to be "unlocked" by Gianforte and his corporate donors. Their voices should be heard.
Montana is a huge state with lots of wilderness. As well, there is a lot of other private and public land other than wilderness that is already available for oil, gas and timber development. Why must the people who rely on these special wilderness areas for their businesses, their recreation, hunting and for their Montana way of life, get cashed in on by Gianforte?

Iran will seek bids for 15 mining projects for international investors to develop, with production of zinc to gold and iron ore seen getting a boost with the end of sanctions.
President Hassan Rouhani plans to visit France and Italy in November to sign development agreements on some of the projects, according to Mehdi Karbasian, deputy minister of Iran's Ministry of Industries, Mines & Trade, said in an interview in Tehran. Tenders to develop the 15 projects should be issued within the next four months, with the first one proposed in October to build the Neekouyeh gold mine west of Tehran, he said.
Iran's gold production is forecast to triple from 2013 to 10,000 kilograms (321,507 troy ounces) by next year, with iron ore, steel, chromite, aluminum , bauxite, copper and zinc output also growing, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The country reached a deal with international powers in July to ease sanctions in exchange for curbs on its nuclear program, and the rapprochement will pave the way for expanded access for overseas companies.
"We will not put any restrictions on the participation of international companies interested in Iran's mining industry," Karbasian said. "Interested parties can come forward for 100 percent ownership or enter into joint partnerships with us or do so with a local or international company of their choice."
In the Middle East and North Africa, Iran and Morocco are the major miners of metals, according to Mowafa Taib, USGS's lead minerals analyst for the region.

Isotopic ratios can be measured with ppm levels of precision using MC-ICP-MS. The measurement of accurate isotope ratios depends on the adequate correction of the instrumental mass bias. The origin of this bias is element dependent and not fully understood. Previous studies [1,2] document that an increased oxide formation rate for Nd can yield a non-linear mass dependent component to mass bias that cannot be corrected using standard mass bias models and can compromise the accuracy of the corrected ratios.
We investigated the effects of changing the instrument operating conditions, sample introduction system, and sampler/ skimmer cones' geometry on the formation of NdO+ species. The most relevant parameters to oxide formation are torch position, nebulizer pressure, sample gas flow, and skimmer geometry. Varying these parameters allowed us to map how Nd isotopic ratios are affected by oxide formation. The general trend for 142Nd, 143Nd and 145Nd /144Nd ratios is that increasing oxides cause the ratios to decrease, while 148Nd/144Nd ratios increase (e.g. Table 1). The rate of oxide formation for Nd was found to be isotope dependent.

Portia urges JLP Gov't not to squander her legacy on the altar of 'tax-perity'
- Written by wiredja news
- Published in local news

"Anybody who has built a house, knows that the most difficult part is laying the foundation. Our Government has done the heavy lifting," the Opposition leader said during her budget presentation — a significant portion of which extolled the various programmes undertaken by her People's National Party during its four years in power.
"I stand before this Parliament and the nation today to remind you that my Administration was bold enough to take on the difficult challenges that successive governments have shied away from for decades. We are proud of those accomplishments. We are proud of the Jamaican people who courageously, and with dedication to nation, stood with us on this journey," the Opposition Leader declared.
Mrs Simpson-Miller told Parliament, "let us not squander the sacrifices of the people. Let us resolve to stick to the programme and do the necessary work to help our people fulfil their aspirations."
has dismissed the Government's 2016/17 budget as being made up of many programmes that were left behind by her Administration, but missing the critical elements that will make them workable.
She also said the Opposition was concerned that the Government had deviated from the plans for those programmes.
"We left them there with adequate funding… we are concerned," Simpson Miller stated, arguing that the Andrew Holness-led Government was proving to be "a Government of announcements" which are not linked to formal policy and the funds to support those policies.
The Opposition leader made the criticisms in the House of Representatives on Thursday during her budget presentation — a significant portion of which extolled the various programmes undertaken by her People's National Party during its four years in power.
"Locally and internationally, Jamaica's success was hailed as being transformative. Jamaica saw improvement in the doing business index; Jamaica was voted as the best country in the Caribbean to do business; and the best performing stock market in the world for 2015;
"Businesses - large and small, foreign and local - were investing and creating employment for thousands of Jamaicans. Consumer confidence was at an all time high. Mr. Speaker: For the first time in decades, Jamaica had a balanced budget and a healthy primary surplus. The country had savings and had started to invest in social services to improve our people's lives in a sustainable way.
"It is said that inflation is a tax on the poor and I agree. The historic low levels of inflation really meant that all Jamaicans were finally getting the most sustainable tax break they had received in 50 years. This explains the high levels of business and consumer confidence in the country.
"We led the drive for growth, job creation and better pay for workers, through the promotion of major commercial and industrial projects in:
Construction; and
Business Process Outsourcing.
"In 2007, I broke ground for the construction of the North-South Highway – the single largest investment in Jamaica. This was part of the growth agenda.
"So when the Finance Minister tweeted congratulations to the current Transport Minister, that message was sent to the wrong person. This new corridor is critical for future developments in housing and hotel construction along the North Coast. It is vital for the efficient movement of goods, people and to encourage further investment.
"Last year Cabinet gave approval for the design and construction of the Southern Coastal Highway starting with the Harbour View to Morant Bay leg. The second phase should cover Morant Bay to Port Antonio. This was part of a larger vision we had to connect the entire island. Prime Minister, the people of St Thomas are waiting to hear from you and an assurance that their highway will not be abandoned. Such an action would retard economic development for them.
"Jamaica is now at a delicate stage of recovery and the budget being presented threatens to derail that recovery," she stated during the presentation, which lasted just over an hour.
The former prime minister, whilst insisting that her Administration had been well on the way to leading the country to economic prosperity, accused the two-and-a-half-month-old Jamaica Labour Party Government of slipping in a $13.8-billion tax package on the sly.
Simpson Miller, like her spokesman on finance Dr Peter Phillips did a couple of days ago, said the Government has not delivered on the $1.5-million tax break as promised, and described the measures announced by Finance Minister Audley Shaw last week as having been "deceptively imposed".
"They said there would have been no new taxes to fund their promised income tax relief. Now every Jamaican man woman and child is paying for that promise," she said, adding that thousands of people would not benefit.
"What is worse, is that no one will get the $18,000 — not until 2018 — yet everyone will have to pay the new taxes," remarked the Opposition leader, brushing aside the personal income tax relief plan as "tax-perity".
She also criticised the proposed changes to the education system. "The auxiliary fee confusion has cast a shadow over the future of our education system," she argued, and charged that the allocations to secondary schools are not enough to plug the gaps in their budget that would be created by removing those fees.
Simpson Miller also pointed to announcements of changes to the school-feeding programme the early childhood stimulation programme, and the addition of years to the secondary school system.
"The reality for the country is that an underfunded education system will set back the tremendous gains of the past four years. It is time for Jamaica to again have a national consultation on education and arrive at a consensus for the preservation of its gains and the correction of its problems," she suggested.

By The Associated Press
The Hattiesburg American–March 8, 2011
JACKSON — The Mississippi House sent a sex education bill to the governor.
Under the bill, districts must choose to teach either abstinence only or "abstinence plus," which includes health information about contraceptives.
The House voted Monday to accept changes the Senate had made to the bill. The changes included requiring schools that choose to teach more than abstinence to include information about the risk and failure rates of contraceptives.
The bill also requires that students are separated by gender in the classes and prohibits any demonstrations on the use of condoms.
Current law says school districts are not required to teach any kind of sex education. Schools may now teach abstinence only, but need local board permission to teach about contraceptives.
If you are curious, the bill is House Bill 999.

Heading home for the weekend?
It may be a good time to check-in with Mum and Dad to see if they need a little help around the home.
Family get-togethers are often when we see signs that Mum and Dad aren't coping as well as they use to. Knowing what to look for, and having the confidence to raise any concerns, can mean the difference between your parents getting the help they need or waiting until the situation becomes more serious.
Finding the right balance between concern and interference can be hard to get right and raising the subject of getting a helping hand at home can be a real minefield. Yet a little help around the house can be a great way to ensure your Mum and Dad stay at home and maintain their independence.
No one's arguing downsizing can sometimes be a confronting experience. It needs to be done at a pace you're comfortable with, and when it is, many people are growing to find that downsizing your home and life is something to look forward to, plan and ultimately enjoy when the time comes.
Our real estate partners, Barry Plant can help you start to look into the downsizing process with no obligation or commitment to sell. If you're curious about what your home could be worth, submit your application for a FREE, no obligation market appraisal.
|Request a free property appraisal
It can be difficult for parents to admit they need a hand with things around the house, so spending time together can be the best way to get an indication if help is needed. If you are heading home for the holidays, here are a couple of things you can keep an eye out for:
- You may notice that the house is not quite as tidy as it used to be, or that Mum and Dad seem a little forgetful, maybe missing an appointment or forgetting to pay a bill.
- If they're slowing down and are a little less mobile, or maybe they're not as keen to play with the kids or get out and about, these could be signs that you need to have a chat.
If you decide that it is an issue you want to raise with your parents, think about your approach and don't make assumptions about how they will react. It's important not to jump to conclusions and make decisions on your parent's behalf. They may be relieved to get a bit of extra help, or they may not want to hear it.
When raising your concerns, it's good to let them know that you have seen a few things and want to check all is OK. Make it clear that any decision about getting help is theirs and theirs alone. Be respectful, listen, and express how you feel.
It helps to have done your homework before you have the chat so that you can offer some advice on what help is available.
A good place to start may be with some basic cleaning to get your parents comfortable with the idea of having someone in the house.
For more help, find out what in-home care services are available in your area.

G.M. Rabiul Islam
Integrating participatory systems dynamics and nutrition: applications to a market intervention to improve safe and nutritious food availability in Bangladesh
Doctorate: Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Japan, 2018
Home mentor: Dr. Mohammad Jahangir Alam, Professor, Department of Agribusiness and Marketing, & Director, Institute of Agribusiness and Development Studies (IADS), Bangladesh Agricultural University
Host mentor: Dr. Karl Rich, Principal Scientist: Policy, Impact, and Value Chains; International Livestock Research Institute
Short biography:
Dr. G.M. Rabiul Islam is an epidemiologist in the field of nutrition, food safety, and value chain research. He received his Ph.D. from Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Japan, in the field of public health economics. He also holds an MSc in Nutrition and Rural Development from Ghent University, Belgium, and BSc in Agriculture from Khulna University, Bangladesh.
Project summary:
The per-capita consumption of vegetables in Bangladesh is substantially below WHO norms, and there is an urgent need to encourage local value chains to deliver safe and affordable produce to the wider population. At the same time, nitrate and nitrite pollution from chemical fertilizers, pesticide residue overload in vegetables and microbiological contamination along the value chain have emerged as alarming public health issues.
This project will address the following questions:
- Can value chains be shaped to deliver better environmental outcomes, safer food as well as expanded supplies of nutritious produce to a wide cross-section of consumers?
- What would be the system wide benefits and costs of alternative interventions (e.g., adoption of good agricultural practices)?
This project will use an innovation in the form of Group Model Building (GMB) approaches in the system dynamics (SD) modelling of vegetable value chains in Bangladesh. SD techniques provide a means of addressing the impact of intervention options in agri-food value chains. GMB sessions use focus groups and the language of systems thinking to develop, construct, and parameterize models directly with client groups, with discussion on model structure and parameters complemented by primary and secondary data. In the proposed research, we aim to adapt and demonstrate the value of GMB in a value chains for nutrition settings.

For the past year Fotolia has featured exciting artwork from some of the best French artists, 10 to be exact, in their TEN Collection. Now they are challenging us to take on those artists by creating work that is just as awesome. To make the contest even more interesting there is over $300,000 worth of prizes up for grabs. Got your attention?
Each artist had a theme and used pictures from Fotolia to create a stunning psd. We must pick an artist, revamp their theme, and use at least 3 images they used in our own psd file. Fotolia has provided all the artists' images. We can use images from any of the TEN and our personal images as well. I wrote about these four artists: Leroy (travel), Elroy (money), Joolz (food), and Neopen (lifestyle). So I would like to stick to what is in their files. Right now I'm leaning toward the food theme, but I've still got time to decide. The contest ends October 10, 2012. Are you in?

Lots of articles have been written recently about Michigan Central Station and its Daddy Moroun's company pulling permits to do work on the building that is the epitome of What's-Wrong-With-Detroit.
We posted a pic of new work done on the windows.

Statement of Mickey Blashfield, Director of Governmental Relations for NBIT, Inc. confirming permit applications for a service elevator at the Michigan Central Depot (Detroit, MI)
"We are obtaining building permits to install a service elevator. A new freight elevator is the next step of work on the venerable Michigan Central Depot and will allow the smooth installation of windows and roof work as we continue to prepare the building for a new day.
"As with the rehabilitation of any historic structure, it always takes more time and money than first expected. In addition to applying for the building permits we are keeping City of Detroit officials updated on our progress and plans."
Facts Regarding the Michigan Central Depot:
- The Michigan Central Depot is operated by NBIT, Inc., a Moroun family company.
- Over $4 million has been invested to date of interior enhancement, preparation and security work.
- Electricity service was to the building interior was restored in 2012.

Exploring Exversion Data
Modeled after Github — the cloud-hosted platform across which programmers can collaboratively share and review code — Exversion aims to provide the same collaborative functionality around data that GitHub provides around code. The Exversion platform offers version control functionality and hosting services to which you can upload and share your data.
To illustrate how Exversion works, imagine a platform that would allow you to first fork (or copy) a dataset and then make the changes you want. Exversion would be there to keep track of what has changed from the original set and every change that you make to it. Exversion also allows users to rate, review, and comment on datasets.
Datasets hosted on the Exversion platform are either provided by a user or created by a spider that crawls and indexes open data to make it searchable from a single application programming interface (API). Like GitHub, with a free user account, all the data you upload to Exversion is public. If you're willing to pay for an account, then you can create your own private data repositories. Also, with the paid account, you get the option to share your data with selected users for collaborative projects.
When you work on collaborative projects, version control becomes vitally important. Instead of learning this lesson the hard way, just start your project on a version-enabled application or platform — this approach will save you from a lot of problems in the future.
Exversion is extremely useful in the data-cleanup stage. Most developers are familiar with data-cleanup hassles. Imagine you want to use a particular dataset, but in order to do so, you must put tabs in all the right places to make the columns line up correctly.
Meanwhile, the other 100 developers out there working with that dataset are doing the exact same thing. In contrast, if you download, clean, and then upload the data to Exversion, other developers can use it and don't have to spend their time doing the same work later. In this way, everyone can benefit from each other's work, and each individual person can spend more time analyzing data and less time cleaning it.

Sexual Health and Libido Supplements provide you with natural options to not only support fertility in women and men, but also enhance interest in sexual activity. There are many options for natural support in these areas, which are either nutrients or herbal medicines, such as coenzyme Q10 or Horny Goat Weed, respectively.
A research article published back in 1997 in Molecular Aspects of Medicine examined Coenzyme Q10 (COQ10) and its role in sperm health. COQ10 is an energy-supportive nutrient with antioxidant effects, naturally found in high levels in the mitochondria of the midpiece of sperm cells. Sperm cells are in fact dependent upon this nutrient for energy, as they are ATP or energy "hungry" cells—it's all the swimming. COQ10 also protects the sperm cell's outer cell membrane from lipid peroxidation. The authors of this research paper concluded that COQ10 improved fertilization rates, which is a plus for natural male fertility support.
There are many other nutrients that support male fertility, such as zinc. A review article published in March 2016 in Scientific Reports indicated that seminal plasma levels of this mineral were lower in infertile males as compared to fertile males. This suggests that a zinc abnormality plays a role in male infertility and that correcting this deficit may prove fruitful. Interestingly, zinc is important for testosterone synthesis in the male testes. Another often forgotten mineral that is crucial for testosterone support is boron. This key mineral has some quite profound effects on the human body, good ones that is. Clinical trials in young healthy men with normal testosterone levels has shown some remarkable elevations in free testosterone just with this mineral alone. As testosterone declines in older age, any boost will assist in maintaining libido and also help to keep lean muscle mass levels up. Women can try this mineral too, especially post-menopausal women, as evidence suggests that supplementation can boost estrogen levels significantly.
Horny Goat Weed is an herb that is useful for both men and women. It is a natural aphrodisiac, and a rich source of flavonoids, which are natural plant-based antioxidant compounds. Another couple of useful herbs are maca, also known as Peruvian ginseng, and Korean (Panax) Ginseng. These two herbs are both powerful whole body tonics. The effects of Maca root on sexual desire in menopausal women were investigated and reported in Menopause in 2008. At a dosage of 3.5 grams daily for six weeks it was found that the herb improved sexual function and better psychological health, without any impact on hormone levels. Additionally, The Journal of Sexual Medicine reported in April 2010 that the use of Korean Red Ginseng increased sexual arousal in menopausal women at a dosage of 3 grams daily compared to placebo.
It is also important to note the effects of nitric oxide boosters with regards to the functioning of sexual organs and glands. Citrulline and Arginine are both amino acids that support nitric oxide production and due to this biological effect may enhance libido and sexual health, if a limiting factor is circulation. Additionally, devitalization-or fatigue-is another cause of low sexual interest, which can be addressed with adequate rest, a good quality diet and stress reduction.

Day 390 (Indonesia – Bali Day 5)
I am back overseas once again! I had a nervous hour at the airport, during which I was paranoid my luggage had been lost, but my box eventually came out. By then it was too late to get to the self-storage unit where my bike resides, so I caught a taxi straight to Mason Villa, where two of my friends from work are staying. I was let in to the empty place and had some time to kill before I had company, as everyone was out at dinner. I ducked out to grab my own dinner and some cash, then chilled in the villa's pool. When everyone came back, we hung out into the night. Several hours, a few drinks and a game of Cards Against Humanity later, some of us went into town, not getting home until about 4am.

1. Definition. Carbon Monoxide (CO) is a heavy, odorless, colorless, tasteless gas resulting from incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. CO kills through asphyxia even in the presence of adequate oxygen, because oxygen-transporting hemoglobin has a 210 times greater affinity for CO than for oxygen. What this means is that CO replaces and takes the place of the oxygen in the body causing Carbon Monoxide poisoning.
2. Signs/Symptoms. The signs and symptoms depend on the amount of CO the victim has inhaled. In mild cases, the victim may have only dizziness, headache, and confusion; severe cases can cause a deep coma. Sudden respiratory arrest may occur. The classic sign of CO poisoning is cherry-red lip color, but this is usually a very late and severe sign, actually the skin is normally found to be pale or blue.
CO poisoning should be suspected whenever a person in a poorly ventilated area suddenly collapses. Recognizing this condition may be difficult when all members of the party are affected.
3. Treatment. The first step is to immediately remove the victim from the contaminated area.
a) Victims with mild CO poisoning who have not lost consciousness need fresh air and light duty for a minimum of four hours. If oxygen is available administer it. More severely affected victims may require rescue breathing.
b) Fortunately, the lungs excrete CO within a few hours.
c) Prevention. Ensure there is adequate ventilation when utilizing a fire near your shelter.
6. MEDICAL AID. Unfortunately, during a survival situation, a corpsman may not always be available to render assistance. Therefore, the survivor must be knowledgeable in basic first aid as taught in the Marine Battle Skills Training Handbook.

Gloria Guinness (nee Gloria Rubio y Alatorre, 1912-1980) was an elegant socialite and writer of the mid 20th century.
Her third husband, whom she married in 1951, was Group Capt. Thomas Loel Guinness, a Member of Parliament (died 1989) and an heir to the Guinness beer fortune.
She was voted 'Best Dressed Woman' in the world by Time magazine in 1962 behind Jackie Kennedy in first place. (See Time magazine Jan 26 1962)
She owned seven homes, with a full wardrobe in each so that she would never have to pack or wait at customs. She spread her patronage widely, and amongst donations to the V&A of pieces by Dior, Balenciaga, Givenchy etc., are pieces by lesser known couturiers such as Chaumont and Lafaurie.

Labels and date
'Balenciaga's hats are an integral part of his fashion,' reported the French fashion review Jardin des modes in 1961. They ensure 'that volumes are balanced and the silhouette is perfectly finished off.' Fairly conventional ensembles were often paired with a striking hat which lifted the whole look and made it appear more avant-garde. The client could buy the whole ensemble or leave the hat if it was too daring. The designs for hats were as fiercely protected as those for dresses. The police commissioner stamped the official sketches of the hats to protect them from being copied.

Senators Call For VA Official To Quit
CBS News producer Pia Malbran wrote this story for CBSNews.com.
In the wake of a CBS News report that revealed the Department of Veterans Affairs deliberately withheld critical information about the true suicide risk among veterans, Sens. Patty Murray, D-Wash., and Daniel Akaka, D-Hawaii, today both called for the resignation of Dr. Ira Katz, the VA's top official for mental health.
Murray, a senior member of the Senate Veterans' Affairs Committee, says "Dr. Katz's irresponsible actions have been a disservice to our veterans and it is time for him to go." She continues, "The number one priority of the VA should be caring for our veterans, not covering up the truth."
Akaka, the Chairman of the Committee, sent a letter to the VA's Under Secretary for Health, Michael Kussman, expressing similar concerns about Dr. Katz.
For months, CBS News has been trying to obtain veteran suicide and attempted suicide data from the VA. Earlier this year, the agency provided CBS News with data that showed there were a total of 790 suicide attempts in all of 2007 by veterans who were under the VA's care.
On February 13, however, Katz sent an e-mail indicating the total number of attempts was much higher. The e-mail was addressed to his top media advisor Everett Chasen and entitled, "Not for the CBS News Interview Request."
Katz wrote: "Shh! Our suicide prevention coordinators are identifying about 1000 suicide attempts per month among veterans we see in our medical facilitates." He then asked "is this something we should (carefully) address ourselves in some sort of release before someone stumbles on it?"
In another e-mail message, Katz told the VA's Under Secretary for Health, Michael Kussman, that there are "about 18 suicides per day among America's 25 million veterans." This is a figure that the VA has never made public.
Yesterday, CBS News that the reason the numbers mentioned in his e-mails had not been made public was because the "results were available for only one or two months, and there were and still are questions about how consistent or reliable the findings would be."
In other development today, Sens. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, and Russ Feingold, D-Wisc., introduced legislation this afternoon requiring the VA to track veteran suicides. Harkin told CBS News that the e-mail controversy is what sparked the legislation. He said "anyone at the VA who is involved in this cover up should be removed immediately."

Congestive Heart Failure Home > Normal Digoxin Blood Level
Your dosage of digoxin (Lanoxin®) may be adjusted no more often than every two weeks based on how you respond to the medicine and the results of your digoxin blood level. Normal therapeutic blood levels of digoxin (Lanoxin®) are considered to be between 0.5 and 2 ng per mL.
However, some clinical studies have shown that the target digoxin blood level for effectively treating heart failure is between 0.5 and 1 ng per mL. Most people will likely be maintained on a digoxin dosage between 0.125 mg and 0.25 mg to achieve this level. Digoxin toxicity is likely to occur if levels exceed 2 ng per mL.
Because digoxin toxicity can occur with normal use, make sure to contact your healthcare provider if you notice any signs of this potentially dangerous complication. Some signs of digoxin toxicity include vision changes, confusion, and vomiting.
(For more information on normal digoxin blood levels, click Digoxin Dosage. This article provides information on specific dosing guidelines for treating congestive heart failure or atrial fibrillation.)

Two New York Times critics released books on the same day last month. Ben Ratliff, Popcast host and music critic, delivered "Every Song Ever: Twenty Ways to Listen in an Age of Musical Plenty" (Farrar, Straus and Giroux), a book that proposes new frameworks for listening that avoid familiar genre connections and traps. A. O. Scott put out his first book, "Better Living Through Criticism: How to Think About Art, Pleasure, Beauty and Truth" (Penguin Press), with an argument for the value of criticism in an age where it is plentiful and also, in places, diminished.
We gathered for a special episode of Popcast to talk about both books, but more crucially to talk shop: Why be a critic? What good are critics? What's the future for a critic, and for criticism?

Black Dyke is no stranger to the stage at Symphony Hall, although the regularity of their contest and concert appearances hasn't affected their enviable ability to attract a large audience to hear them perform.
With the Grand Tier closed off, the Queensbury band received a warm welcome from listeners drawn in considerable number to a Sunday afternoon programme of familiar favourites.
Cynics may sneer, but the MD knows his audience and knows what they like. Symphony Hall's accountants will also have been very well pleased.
Operatic swagger
'Liberty Bell' certainly had a stylish ring about it to open, although it was the meaty, operatic swagger of 'La Forza del Destino' that grabbed the attention in the first half - full of intensity and dramatic vigour.
It was a brilliantly thumping reminder of the serious substance that lurks behind Dyke's polished musical bonhomie.
it was the meaty, operatic swagger of 'La Forza del Destino' that grabbed the attention in the first half - full of intensity and dramatic vigour.
Elsewhere it was the regular easy- listening repertoire that can sound deceptively easy, but still takes some playing to sound fresh and interesting. 'Cornet Carillon' remains a campanologist's delight, 'Fire in the Blood' a craftily chosen first half finisher.
All the soloists – led in exemplary fashion by Richard Marshall with an elegantly phrased 'Melody of the Heart', played with classy inflections of artistry and easy virtuosity. The standard set, Siobhan Bates with 'Celtic Promise' in the first half, to Brett Baker ('Sweet Hour of Prayer'), Daniel Thomas ('Endearing Young Charms') and Zoe Lovatt-Cooper ('Concerto de Aranjuez') in the second maintained it superbly.
That said, the 'Black Dyke at the Movies' segment is in need perhaps of a timely 'Director's Cut' reboot, although when you can get everyone humming along to '633 Squadron', toe-tapping their way though 'Ol' Man River', and the waiting in expectation for the cannons to fire in '1812 Overture' you sense not too many people are yearning for excepts from 'Fast & Furious 7' and 'Transformers Bumblebee'.
The applause and the demands for encores told you that.

Brief Biography
Dr. Joel Fish specializes in burns and complex wound care and is currently is the Medical Director of the Burn Program at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. He is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and holds the position of Associate Professor in the Department of Surgery at the University of Toronto.
Fish completed Medical School at McMaster University before beginning his training in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Toronto. Following residency, Fish completed a "Travelling Burn Fellowship" program that took him to burn centers in Seattle, Boston, and San Antonio. In 1998, Fish was appointed Medical Director of the adult Burn Program at the Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre (Ross Tilley Burn Centre) and held this role for over ten years. During his time at Sunnybrook, Fish treated many patients who had experienced electrical injuries and developed a clinical research program focused on understanding how these injuries are related to muscle fatigue, psychological changes, and pain control.
Fish joined the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the Hospital for Sick Children in 2007 and served as the Research Director for the Division from 2007-2014. In 2009, Fish was appointed Medical Director of the Burn Program. SickKids has the largest paediatric burn program in Canada with more than 300 new patients treated each year. In addition, it is the only paediatric burn program in Canada that has been verified by the American Burn Association. Fish's clinical practice focuses on the treatment of pediatric burn injuries, and includes the full continuum from the acute injury, rehabilitation, and secondary reconstruction when needed. Fish also specializes in treating severe complex wound conditions from a variety of other causes.
In addition to his clinical role at SickKids, Fish is a member of the Institute of Medical Science at the University of Toronto and currently supervises several graduate students. At present, his research team is focused on evaluating the effectiveness of laser therapy to improve burn scars in children. In addition, the team is also working on several other projects to investigate objective scar measures and develop patient-reported outcome tools for children with scars.
