Every day we face stressful events. Most of these events are minor. But other events are clearly major sources of stress. These include things such as a marriage or divorce, or trouble at home or work.
You may need help from others, such as a professional counselor, to judge how stressful a situation really is. After that, you can put in order what you need to get done. You also need to look at the resources available to help you understand and work through the problem.
When you're faced with a highly stressful event in your life, these methods may help you cope:
Don't make unneeded changes in your life. Instead, save what energy you have for dealing with the major stressor at hand. If possible, try to make your work and home environments stable while working out the main problem.
Quiet your mind. Use deep breathing and visualization methods to calm your mind and slow your breathing. When you're stressed, your mind can make things seem worse. It does this by creating endless versions of coming disaster. This affects your body, too. The body can't tell the difference between what's real and what's not. So it reacts with a greater physical response.
Stay in the present. You can calm both your mind and your body by keeping your mind in the present. The present is hardly ever as stressful as an imagined future or a past full of regrets. To stay in the present, center your attention on your breathing, a sound or visual pattern, a repetitive movement, or meditation.
Bravely and aggressively face the stressor. Don't just ignore whatever is causing you stress. Instead, carefully think about the seriousness of the problem. But don't blow it out of proportion. Ask yourself, "What's the worst thing that is realistically likely to happen?" Then remind yourself of all the good things that will still be a part of your life even if the worst happens. Talk with others to confirm your view of the stressor. Make a special effort to speak to family, friends, or co-workers who have had similar experiences.
Review your coping responses. Confidence is helpful in fighting stress. And it builds on memories of past successes. Think about successes you've had with other stressful life events. Recall some of the things you did to cope. Think about writing this down.
Take action. Commit to a reasonable way to deal with what is causing you stress. Action is powerful in helping you to reduce stress. Studies show that your body lowers the amount of a powerful stress hormone (epinephrine) when you shift into action. Don't stop taking action because you're afraid you'll make the wrong decision. There are many ways to successfully handle a stressful situation.
Take time out to relax. At least once or twice a day, take time to calm down by relaxing. Try listening to soothing music, taking a walk, gardening, reading, or exercising. You could also choose to do more formal relaxation such as deep breathing or meditation.
Be mindful of your time. Consider making a day-to-day prioritized list of what you need to do. This can help decrease a sense of being overwhelmed.
Get enough sleep. Lack of sleep can cause additional physical and emotional problems, such as drowsiness, g, memory problems, and trouble concentrating.
Avoid alcohol and drugs. Far from helping you cope, these can actually make symptoms worse.

In January 2018, we had the incredible opportunity to host a wish reveal party for Payton, who is living with a neurological disorder.
The reveal took place at Service Experts' North American headquarters in Plano. Payton, who was under the impression that he was sharing details about his Make-A-Wish journey, sat down for a mock news conference with Service Experts employees. After a short Q&A session, Payton learned that his wish was being granted as confetti cannons blasted and music from his favorite band played.
We have had the honor of keeping in touch with Wish Kid Payton and his family through Make-A-Wish® North Texas. We talked to Wish Mom Shanna – Payton's mother – who shared some valuable insight about why wishes are so important.
How did you feel when you learned that Payton would have a wish granted?
When I learned Payton would have a wish granted by Make-A-Wish, I was overcome with emotions. I cried with excitement. I cried with sadness that he needed a wish. I felt very humbled. Most of all, I was extremely grateful he was given this opportunity and happy for my son. He deserves the world and has endured so much throughout his journey.
What has been the most memorable part of your family's journey with Make-A-Wish?
There have been many memorable parts to our journey with Make-A-Wish. The most memorable has to be the connections and bonds we have formed with our wish granter, Service Experts employees and other wish families. Those experiences are priceless. And, the kids would probably say the free ice cream on the ship!
What was Payton's favorite part of the cruise experience?
Payton's favorite part about the cruise experience was our time in Mexico. He loved the culture and spending the day playing at the gorgeous beach resort we visited. He would run carefree, up & down the beach. He swam, built sand castles, and played on the inflatable jungle gym in the water. Also on the boat, he loved the waterslides...and, of course, the ice cream!
What motivates you and Payton to continue to work with Make-A-Wish by giving your time and sharing your experience with the local community?
We have experienced first- hand how Make-A-Wish can bring joy to a family, even in their darkest hours. They provide hope when our warriors are ready to give up and it's the least we can do to be able to help share that with other fighters. It's an honor to be able to work with Make-A-Wish.
Do you believe that wishes make life better for children living with critical illnesses?
Absolutely. Having a wish granted ignites a spark in children to keep fighting when their flame has burnt out. I could not believe this more!
What would you say to someone considering becoming a volunteer with Make A Wish?
Do it! Becoming a volunteer with Make-A-Wish will fill your heart more than you know. It is worth every second spent doing so and will be life changing to so many children with critical illnesses.
Why should people consider donating to help grant wishes?
Thousands of children are waiting for their wishes to be granted. Donating will help make their dream come true, and might also help save their life.
What does a wish mean to you?
To me, a wish means happiness, laughter, and being able to forget about being sick for just a bit. A wish is pure joy.
Why do wishes matter?
Wishes matter because they make a difference. They brighten children's lives when nothing else can. That is truly priceless.

It's Easter morning. A boy rouses his younger brother, and they run to the living room to find their baskets filled with — what else? — Peeps.
"Peeps are THE candy of Easter," the excited boy tells his wide-eyed sibling, who pops a yellow marshmallow chick in his mouth.
"You can eat 'em, smash 'em, microwave 'em, deep fry 'em, roast 'em on a stick," the boy explains. That's not all. You can make "historically accurate Peeps dioramas ... Peeps pop art ... You can make a Peeps topiary." On he goes, all day and night. "Peeps jousting ... hide-and-go Peeps ... Peepshi ... that's sushi made out of Peeps."
As the storied candy brand celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, Peeps' first TV ad in a decade captures an essential truth about the spongy confection made of sugar, corn syrup and gelatin: Love them or hate them, people do all sorts of things with Peeps, only some of which involve giving them to kids at Easter or eating them straight from the box.
And they're not shy about sharing.
"Everyone seems to have a Peeps story," says Ross Born, third-generation operator of Just Born Inc., which hatches 5 million Peeps a day at its plant 60 miles north of Philadelphia. "And they are free and willing to talk about how they eat their Peeps, how they cure them, how they store them, how they decorate with them. And these are adults!"
Just Born calls it the "Peepsonality" of consumers who buy Peeps not only to eat, but also to play around with.
"If you had asked me about this 25 years ago, I would've been rather bewildered about the whole thing," Born confesses. "We were candymakers."
Not that he's complaining. Just Born had its best year financially in 2012.
His grandfather, Russian immigrant Sam Born, started the candy company out of a Brooklyn storefront 90 years ago. Born advertised the freshness of his product with a sign that said "Just Born." The name stuck.
The burgeoning business moved to Bethlehem and acquired the Peeps brand with its 1953 purchase of Rodda Candy Co. of Lancaster. Best known for its jelly beans, Rodda had also introduced a small line of marshmallow chicks and bunnies, employing dozens of women who hand-squeezed them out of pastry bags. "It was really very difficult, and these women were strong," said David Shaffer, Sam Born's nephew and co-CEO along with Ross Born.
Ross's father, Bob Born — a physicist and engineer by training — automated the process in the mid-1950s, and a version of the machine he invented is still in use today, extruding millions of those familiar shapes on peak-Peep production days.
The company, whose other brands are Hot Tamales, Mike and Ike, and Goldenberg's Peanut Chews, has never suffered an unprofitable year. But its growth has always been relatively slow, steady and controlled, and a few years ago, Born and Shaffer decided they wanted to accelerate it.
The longtime partners brought in a new management team, spent heavily on marketing and broke back into the chocolate business, introducing chocolate-dipped Peeps as well as Peepsters, small chocolate candies filled with marshmallow-flavored cream. (New for this year is a yellow chick nestled in a hollow chocolate egg.) They also focused on holiday seasons other than Easter, particularly Christmas.
The result: Shaffer says last year was "off the charts." While Just Born is privately held and does not disclose revenue, he says it posted double-digit growth across all brands. And Shaffer sees more growth potential as the confectioner works to position its products in warehouse clubs and convenience stores.
Just Born certainly benefits from being part of a $33 billion candy industry that is seen as basically recession-proof, offering an inexpensive indulgence during tough economic times.
"Candy did not seem to take the hit that some other industries faced in recent years. We think a big reason for that is candy's place in our hearts and minds," says Susan Whiteside of the National Confectioners Association, a trade group.
Long associated with Easter, Peeps have penetrated the pop-culture consciousness in a way that other candy brands have not.
Aficionados send chicks into battle in a microwave "sport" known as Peeps jousting. They enter Peeps art contests, dozens of which are held around the country this time of year. They innovate recipes like "Peepza," a desert pizza. They write cheeky blog entries with titles like "101 Fun Ways to Torture a Peep."
Hoping to capitalize, Just Born recently opened three Peeps & Co. retail stores in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Minnesota.
While the company churns out more than 1 billion Peeps this Easter season — a record — it sees the 60th anniversary as another marketing opportunity and a chance to connect with its fans. In addition to the TV ad campaign, it's ramping up social media promoting a Facebook survey that asks knowing questions like this one: Do you like your Peeps fresh, frozen, or "aged to perfection"?
So which is it, Ross Born? Fresh or stale?
He's happy to address that perennial Peeps debate. Just don't ask him to take sides.
"There's a lot of gray area here," Born says diplomatically. "There are people who tell me they put a one-inch slice in the film (that seals the box), and they'll lay it on top of their refrigerator for two days. No more, no less. Then they are PERFECT to eat.
"So it's not necessarily stale, it's just a little firmer. All right? It's just like politics," says Just Born's commander-in-Peep. "You've got people way on one side, and way on the other side, but there are a whole lot of people in the middle."

WASHINGTON (AP) — The CIA has been delivering light machine guns and other small arms to Syrian rebels for several weeks, following President Barack Obama's decision to arm the rebels.
The agency has also arranged for the Syrian opposition to receive anti-tank weaponry like rocket-propelled grenades through a third party, presumably one of the Gulf countries that has been arming the rebels, a senior U.S. intelligence official and two former intelligence officials said Thursday.
They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the classified program publicly.
The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal first reported the lethal aid.
Top rebel commander Gen. Salim Idris told NPR on Thursday that rebels had received no such aid from the U.S. The CIA declined to comment.
The officials said the aid has been arriving for more than a month, much of it delivered through a third party, which could explain why the rebel commander Idris does not believe the U.S. directly delivered the aid.
The officials said the aid is delivered to commanders who have been vetted by the CIA, and the path of the weaponry is tracked through trusted parties within the country — though eventually, once they're in the hands of fighters, the U.S. loses sight of where the weapons go.
The rebels continue to request sophisticated anti-aircraft weaponry to take out the Syrian regime's helicopters, but the officials said neither the U.S. nor Syria's neighboring countries, like Jordan or Israel, wants the rebels to have weaponry that may fall into the hands of the al-Qaida-linked rebel group al-Nusra, or captured by Hezbollah fighters who are bolstering the Syrian army's effort.
The CIA program is classified as covert, which means it would be briefed to Congress's intelligence committees but not its defense committees.
That explains why some senior lawmakers on the defense committees have complained the lethal aid was not arriving, two of the officials said.

Some not very smart decisions in the past couple of years made my credit terrible. Even though I'm back on my feet now no bank wanted to approve me. So, I searched online and found New Car Canada. They connected me with a dealer who approved me. Highly recommended!

Rubella is a very contagious (easily spread) illness caused by the rubella virus. It is usually a mild illness. But in rare cases, it may cause more serious problems.
If you are pregnant and get infected with the rubella virus, you are at risk for miscarriage. And your baby (fetus) could become infected too. This can cause birth defects, including serious defects known as congenital rubella syndrome (CRS). CRS can cause hearing loss, eye problems, heart problems, and other complications.
Rubella also is called German measles or 3-day measles.
The rubella virus most often is spread through droplets of fluid from the mouth, nose, or eyes of someone who has the infection. A person who has the infection can spread these droplets by coughing, sneezing, talking, or sharing food or drinks. You can get infected by touching something that has the droplets on it and then touching your eyes, nose, or mouth before washing your hands.
If you have rubella, you are most likely to spread it a few days before the rash starts until 5 to 7 days after the rash first appears. But you can spread the virus even if you don't have any symptoms.
If you've had rubella, it is very unlikely that you will get it again.
Symptoms of rubella may include:
Adults also may have joint pain. Older children and teens also may have eye pain, a sore throat, and body aches. Young children may have only a rash.
Symptoms may not start until about 14 to 21 days after you've been near someone who has the infection. Some people don't have symptoms.
A blood test can help your doctor find out if a recent infection you've had was caused by the rubella virus. The test also shows if you have been immunized against rubella or are immune to the virus.
Rubella usually gets better with home care.
Stay away from other people, especially pregnant people, as much as you can so that you don't spread the illness. If you or your child has rubella, don't go to work, school, or day care for 7 days after the rash first appears.
If you're exposed to the rubella virus while pregnant, talk to your doctor. They may give you a shot of immunoglobulin (IG) if testing shows that you are not immune. IG doesn't prevent infection, but it may make symptoms less severe. It also lowers the chance of birth defects, although it doesn't always prevent them. A child with congenital rubella syndrome has been born to someone who has received IG.
The rubella vaccine protects against the illness. The vaccine is part of the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) and MMRV (measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella [chickenpox]) vaccines. Most children get the vaccine as part of their regular shots.
If you are planning to become pregnant and don't know if you're immune to rubella, get a blood test to find out. If you're not immune, you can safely get the rubella vaccine up to 1 month before you become pregnant. If you're not immune and didn't get the vaccine before you became pregnant, take extra care to avoid contact with the virus. Avoid the saliva of babies and young children, and wash your hands often.

The increasing prevalence of myopia throughout the industrialized world in recent decades has caused costs and problems for the eye health. Changed lifestyle and behavior are the main causes. For the pathogenesis of myopia, the amount of time spent outdoor and near activities play an important role. Various options for the treatment of myopia have been described as effective in the literature. Normal single vision glasses and contact lenses can only provide clear vision, but do not reduce myopia progression. Orthokeratology shows a slowing of axial growth, but has an increased risk of infectious keratitis. Low-dose atropine (0.01%) is currently the best pharmacological option. It proved safe, effective and showed the least rebound effect with negligible side effects. Other options for the treatment of myopia include special glasses, behavioral changes and prolonged outdoor exposure (to prevent the onset of myopia), as well as other methods. An increasingly important myopia management option is multifocal contact lenses, that provide a peripheral treatment zone producing myopic defocus. Such myopia control lenses are available as customized or as daily or monthly lenses. Children benefit from wearing contact lenses more than just having refractive error correction and myopia control, they have a better self-esteem and improved quality of life. The numerous findings on the safety and efficacy of soft multifocal distance center contact lenses in children to reduce the progression of myopia suggest that this modality should be considered as a main treatment option. Less, but similar to orthokeratology, when wearing soft lenses there is a risk of developing potentially serious complications such as microbial keratitis. The introduction of child-appropriate risk minimization strategies, and patient and parent education with regular monitoring is essential and leads to successful contact lens wear. This literature review summarized the actual knowledge about myopia management, prevalence, etiology and the visual and healthy consequences of myopia. The three currently most important strategies for slowing the progression of myopia are soft multifocal distance center contact lenses, Orthokeratology and low-dose atropine ophthalmic drops.
Purpose: Recent studies found a reduction of myopia progression with multifocal contact lenses, however, with yet unclear mechanism. This raises the hypothesis that the addition zones of the multifocal contact lenses induce myopic defocus on the retina, which consequentially leads to choroidal thickening and therefore inhibited eye growth. We tested the effect of the optical design of multifocal contact lenses on choroidal thickness. Methods: 18 myopic students wore four different contact lenses ((1) single-vision lens corrected for distance, (2) single-vision lens with +2.50 D full-field defocus, (3) "Multifocal center-distance" design, addition +2.50 D, (4) "Multifocal center-near" design, addition +2.50 D) for each 30 minutes on their right eye. Automated analysis of the macular choroidal thickness, vitreous chamber depth and eccentric photorefraction were performed before and after each contact lens. Results: Choroidal thickness and vitreous chamber depth showed no significant differences to baseline with none of the contact lenses. Choroidal thickness increased the most with the "Multifocal center-distance" and the full-field defocus lens, followed by the "Multifocal center-near" and the single-vision contact lens (+2.1 ± 11.1 μm, +2.0 ± 11.1 μm, +1.6 ± 11.3 μm, +0.9 ± 11.2 μm, respectively). The "Multifocal center-distance" design showed an overall more myopic refractive profile than the other lenses. Changes of vitreous chamber depth occurred in anti-phase to these of choroidal thickness. Conclusion: Multifocal contact lenses have no significant influence on choroidal thickness and after short-term wear. Therefore, it is assumed that it is not the main contributor to the protective effect of multifocal contact lenses in myopia control.

perl593delta - what is new for perl v5.9.3
This document describes differences between the 5.9.2 and the 5.9.3 development releases. See perl590delta, perl591delta and perl592delta for the differences between 5.8.0 and 5.9.2.
-f _
The identifier
_ is now forced to be a bareword after a filetest operator. This solves a number of misparsing issues when a global
_ subroutine is defined.
mkdir() without arguments now defaults to
The construct
eval { goto &foo } is now disallowed. (Note that the similar construct, but with
eval("") instead, was already forbidden.)
$# has been removed
The deprecated
$# variable (output format for numbers) has been removed. A new warning,
$# is no longer supported, has been added.
:unique attribute has been made a no-op, since its current implementation was fundamentally flawed and not threadsafe.
sort pragma
sort pragma is now lexically scoped. Its effect used to be global.
feature pragma
feature pragma is used to enable new syntax that would break Perl's backwards-compatibility with older releases of the language. It's a lexical pragma, like
strict or
Currently the following new features are available:
switch (adds a switch statement),
~~ (adds a Perl 6-like smart match operator),
say (adds a
say built-in function), and
err (adds an
err keyword). Those features are described below.
Note that
err low-precedence defined-or operator used to be enabled by default (although as a weak keyword, meaning that any function would override it). It's now only recognized when explicitly turned on (and is then a regular keyword).
Those features, and the
feature pragma itself, have been contributed by Robin Houston.
Perl 5 now has a switch statement. It's available when
use feature 'switch' is in effect. This feature introduces three new keywords,
when, and
given ($foo) {
when (/^abc/) { $abc = 1; }
when (/^def/) { $def = 1; }
when (/^xyz/) { $xyz = 1; }
default { $nothing = 1; }
A more complete description of how Perl matches the switch variable against the
when conditions is given in "Switch statements" in perlsyn.
This kind of match is called smart match, and it's also possible to use it outside of switch statements, via the new
~~ operator (enabled via the
use feature '~~' directive). See "Smart matching in detail" in perlsyn.
say() is a new built-in, only available when
use feature 'say' is in effect, that is similar to print(), but that implicitly appends a newline to the printed string. See "say" in perlfunc.
Perl has now support for the
CLONE_SKIP special subroutine. Like
CLONE_SKIP is called once per package; however, it is called just before cloning starts, and in the context of the parent thread. If it returns a true value, then no objects of that class will be cloned. See perlmod for details. (Contributed by Dave Mitchell.)
A new internal variable,
${^CHILD_ERROR_NATIVE}, gives the native status returned by the last pipe close, backtick command, successful call to wait() or waitpid(), or from the system() operator. See perlrun for details. (Contributed by Gisle Aas.)
The support for assertions, introduced in perl 5.9.0, has been improved. The syntax for the
-A command-line switch has changed; it now accepts an optional module name, defaulting to
assertions::activate. See assertions and perlrun. (Contributed by Salvador Fandiño García.)
The copy of the Unicode Character Database included in Perl 5.9 has been updated to 4.1.0.
no VERSION
You can now use
no followed by a version number to specify that you want to use a version of perl older than the specified one.
You can now use recursive subroutines with sort(), thanks to Robin Houston.
The compile-time value of the
%^H hint variable can now propagate into eval("")uated code. This makes it more useful to implement lexical pragmas.
As a side-effect of this, the overloaded-ness of constants now propagates into eval("").
-E is equivalent to -e, but it implicitly enables all optional features (like
use feature ":5.10").
chmod and
chown on filehandles
chmod and
chown can now work on filehandles as well as filenames, if the system supports respectively
fchmod and
fchown, thanks to a patch provided by Gisle Aas.
$( and
$) now return groups in the order where the OS returns them, thanks to Gisle Aas. This wasn't previously the case.
A new pragma,
feature, has been added; see above in "Core Enhancements".
assertions::compat, also available on CPAN, allows the use of assertions on perl versions prior to 5.9.0 (that is the first one to natively support them).
Math::BigInt::FastCalc is an XS-enabled, and thus faster, version of
Compress::Zlib is an interface to the zlib compression library. It comes with a bundled version of zlib, so having a working zlib is not a prerequisite to install it. It's used by
Archive::Tar (see below).
IO::Zlib is an
IO::-style interface to
Archive::Tar is a module to manipulate
tar archives.
Digest::SHA is a module used to calculate many types of SHA digests, has been included for SHA support in the CPAN module.
ExtUtils::CBuilder and
ExtUtils::ParseXS have been added.
ptar is a pure perl implementation of
tar, that comes with
ptardiff is a small script used to generate a diff between the contents of a tar archive and a directory tree. Like
ptar, it comes with
This command-line utility, used to print or to check SHA digests, comes with the new
Digest::SHA module.
h2xs enhancements
h2xs implements a new option
--use-xsloader to force use of
XSLoader even in backwards compatible modules.
The handling of authors' names that had apostrophes has been fixed.
Any enums with negative values are now skipped.
perlivp enhancements
perlivp no longer checks for *.ph files by default. Use the new
-a option to run all tests.
The perlglossary manpage is a glossary of terms used in the Perl documentation, technical and otherwise, kindly provided by O'Reilly Media, Inc.
perltodo now lists a rough roadmap to Perl 5.10.
Some pure-perl code that perl was using to retrieve Unicode properties and transliteration mappings has been reimplemented in XS.
The interpreter internals now support a far more memory efficient form of inlineable constants. Storing a reference to a constant value in a symbol table is equivalent to a full typeglob referencing a constant subroutine, but using about 400 bytes less memory. This proxy constant subroutine is automatically upgraded to a real typeglob with subroutine if necessary. The approach taken is analogous to the existing space optimisation for subroutine stub declarations, which are stored as plain scalars in place of the full typeglob.
Several of the core modules have been converted to use this feature for their system dependent constants - as a result
use POSIX; now takes about 200K less memory.
The new compilation flag
PERL_DONT_CREATE_GVSV, introduced as an option in perl 5.8.8, is turned on by default in perl 5.9.3. It prevents perl from creating an empty scalar with every new typeglob. See perl589delta for details.
Weak reference creation is now O(1) rather than O(n), courtesy of Nicholas Clark. Weak reference deletion remains O(n), but if deletion only happens at program exit, it may be skipped completely.
Salvador Fandiño provided improvements to reduce the memory usage of
sort and to speed up some cases.
Parallel makes should work properly now, although there may still be problems if
make test is instructed to run in parallel.
Building with Borland's compilers on Win32 should work more smoothly. In particular Steve Hay has worked to side step many warnings emitted by their compilers and at least one C compiler internal error.
Perl extensions on Windows now can be statically built into the Perl DLL, thanks to a work by Vadim Konovalov.
Perl is being ported to Symbian OS. See perlsymbian for more information.
The VMS port has been improved. See perlvms.
DynaLoader::dl_unload_file() now works on Windows.
Portability of Perl on various recent compilers on Windows has been improved (Borland C++, Visual C++ 7.0).
Configure will now detect
clearenv and
unsetenv, thanks to a patch from Alan Burlison. It will also probe for
futimes (and use it internally if available), and whether
sprintf correctly returns the length of the formatted string.
README files and changelogs for CPAN modules bundled with perl are no longer installed.
defined $$x
use strict "refs" was ignoring taking a hard reference in an argument to defined(), as in :
use strict "refs";
my $x = "foo";
if (defined $$x) {...}
This now correctly produces the run-time error
Can't use string as a SCALAR ref while "strict refs" in use. (However,
defined @$foo and
defined %$foo are still allowed. Those constructs are discouraged anyway.)
CORE::require() and CORE::do() were always parsed as require() and do() when they were overridden. This is now fixed.
You can now use a non-arrowed form for chained subscripts after a list slice, like in:
({foo => "bar"})[0]{foo}
This used to be a syntax error; a
-> was required.
Perl 5.9.2 introduced a change so that assignments of
undef to a scalar, or of an empty list to an array or a hash, were optimised out. As this could cause problems when
goto jumps were involved, this change was backed out.
Using the sprintf() function with some formats could lead to a buffer overflow in some specific cases. This has been fixed, along with several other bugs, notably in bounds checking.
In related fixes, it was possible for badly written code that did not follow the documentation of
Sys::Syslog to have formatting vulnerabilities.
Sys::Syslog has been changed to protect people from poor quality third party code.
Previously when running with warnings enabled globally via
-w, selective disabling of specific warning categories would actually turn off all warnings. This is now fixed; now
no warnings 'io'; will only turn off warnings in the
io class. Previously it would erroneously turn off all warnings.
FindBin now works better with directories where access rights are more restrictive than usual.
Several memory leaks in ithreads were closed. Also, ithreads were made less memory-intensive.
Trailing spaces are now trimmed from
$! and
Operations that require perl to read a process's list of groups, such as reads of
$( and
$), now dynamically allocate memory rather than using a fixed sized array. The fixed size array could cause C stack exhaustion on systems configured to use large numbers of groups.
PerlIO::scalar now works better with non-default
$/ settings.
x repetition operator is now able to operate on
qw// lists. This used to raise a syntax error.
The debugger now traces correctly execution in eval("")uated code that contains #line directives.
The value of the
open pragma is no longer ignored for three-argument opens.
Perl will now use the C library calls
unsetenv and
clearenv if present to delete keys from
%ENV and delete
%ENV entirely, thanks to a patch from Alan Burlison.
chr() on a negative value now gives
\x{FFFD}, the Unicode replacement character, unless when the
bytes pragma is in effect, where the low eight bytes of the value are used.
Some case insensitive matches between UTF-8 encoded data and 8 bit regexps, and vice versa, could give malformed character warnings. These have been fixed by Dave Mitchell and Yves Orton.
lcfirst and
ucfirst could corrupt the string for certain cases where the length UTF-8 encoding of the string in lower case, upper case or title case differed. This was fixed by Nicholas Clark.
This is a new warning, produced in situations like the following one:
$r = do {my @a; \$#a};
$$r = 503;
This is a new warning, produced when number has been passed as a argument to select(), instead of a bitmask.
# Wrong, will now warn
$rin = fileno(STDIN);
($nfound,$timeleft) = select($rout=$rin, undef, undef, $timeout);
# Should be
$rin = '';
vec($rin,fileno(STDIN),1) = 1;
($nfound,$timeleft) = select($rout=$rin, undef, undef, $timeout);
This syntax error indicates that the lexer couldn't find the final delimiter of a
?PATTERN? construct. Mentioning the ternary operator in this error message makes syntax diagnostic easier.
This warning is now emitted in more consistent cases; in short, when one of the declarations involved is a
my variable:
my $x; my $x; # warns
my $x; our $x; # warns
our $x; my $x; # warns
On the other hand, the following:
our $x; our $x;
now gives a
"our" variable %s redeclared warning.
These new warnings are now emitted when a dirhandle is used but is either closed or not really a dirhandle.
In general, the source code of perl has been refactored, tied up, and optimized in many places. Also, memory management and allocation has been improved in a couple of points.
Andy Lester supplied many improvements to determine which function parameters and local variables could actually be declared
const to the C compiler. Steve Peters provided new
*_set macros and reworked the core to use these rather than assigning to macros in LVALUE context.
Dave Mitchell improved the lexer debugging output under
A new file, mathoms.c, has been added. It contains functions that are no longer used in the perl core, but that remain available for binary or source compatibility reasons. However, those functions will not be compiled in if you add
-DNO_MATHOMS in the compiler flags.
AvFLAGS macro has been removed.
av_*() functions, used to manipulate arrays, no longer accept null
AV* parameters.
The inheritance hierarchy of
B:: modules has changed;
B::NV now inherits from
B::SV (it used to inherit from

Ocean Nutrition - Aquarium Fish Feeders, Fish Food and Water Conditioners
Ocean Nutrition, originally founded in 1982, has never wavered from its original goal to provide the freshest and absolutely best possible foods for marine and freshwater tropical fish. The original concept, rooted in the early days of marine tropical fish breeding and culture, including anemone fish, Garibaldi and yellow-head jawfish, was to duplicate the natural and very complex diet that coral reef fishes feed upon in their natural environment.
The task was not easy since Ocean Nutrition biologists had to find a readily available substitute for the many tiny invertebrate critters, eggs, and plankton that were the normal prey of these beautiful and exotic fish. The formulas gradually evolved over the years, and then were promptly improved and expanded upon as the ingredients became fresher, more exotic and closer to the natural source of the coral reef itself.
Your Online Ocean Nutrition Store
Ocean Nutrition is recognized as the pioneer of "formula diets" and unique in its approach to provide the same Formula Feed in different forms: many are available in flake and pellet form. This way, the customer can chose what form is ideal for his situation, while being sure he still uses the same main basic ingredients in the food.
With headquarters facilities strategically located all over the world (Europe, Asia and the USA), Ocean Nutrition is able to harvest highly nutritional ingredients directly from the source. For over 30 years, Ocean Nutrition has developed a passion for aquatic pets that drives them to make the hobby easy, practical, and, above all, fun! Trust the experts at Ocean Nutrition to provide the very best for your aquatic pets.

How can Sourcing services help?
In today competitive world, sourcing is often a very important component of international business development across many industries and sector of activities. Sourcing specialists are therefore key actors offering vital assistance and bringing expertise, advices and solutions for searching, networking, sourcing, negotiating and reaching agreements on contracts with companies capable of manufacturing and more generally providing goods or components addressing their client's needs. Many organisations are involved in sourcing supports, bringing their knowledge of overseas local market, business cultures and languages. They are also involved in selecting production sites and negotiating annual quantities and prices of goods or components to be manufactured on behalf of clients.What do Sourcing services consist of?
Buying agents and engineering consultant can be of great help, and other key players are also helping corporations in their search for custom manufacturing partners. Product safety and quality control resources are critical in any sourcing process: professionals from these specific fields are often instrumental in profitable and durable sourcing deals: it requires specialists being on the ground, available and particularly rigorous in their global approaches and specific audits of organisations, production sites, quality insurance and security policies. Being aware of and using sourcing services is important for many companies looking for providers, particularly - but not only - in industrial and consumer goods sectors.

Laser/How to Lazzzor
How to Lazzzor or "Why you won't use scissors anymore."
Before you begin you should know..
.. many things can easily go wrong and you might end up with setting the building on fire (or killing everyone at metalab with hazardous fumes, yourself included). to prevent that from happening, you should always have a lazzzor-responsible person guide you through your first 4 or 5 cuts. Now with that out of the way..
So, you want to use the mighty fine lazzzor yesyes? Then you will have to complete several trials to step up to the throne of being a lazzzor king or queen.
Basically, you have 2 options:
- cutting: for this you need a vector graphic,
- engraving: for this you need a rasterized image
You can also do both! if you put a rasterized object inside a vector graphic. Alternatively you can create a separate file for each job.
prepare your image
Get your favorite vector/raster drawing program and draw some stuff you want to have cut or engraved. Depending on what you want to do, your image file is qualified for print if the following things apply.
Cutting / Vector format:
- deactivate filling on all objects
- set the stroke width on all objects to 0 (if your application, e.g. Inkscape, doesn't support hairline strokes, set it to 0.001 inches instead)
- export your image in *.eps format [.. other recommended formats here.] we strongly encourage you NOT to use dxf formats. They are prone to errors when imported into Corel Draw (which will be used to send the job).
- During exporting/saving, look for an option which says "Make a bounding box around full page" or similar and DEactivate it.
Engraving / Raster format:
- convert your image file to gray scale
- play around with the Level option to get the highest contrast possible
- you can set the DPI for your graphic up to 1200 (max. setting the lazzzor supports)
- no background color (means: transparent background)
- ..for raster images: Photoshop, Gimp, MS Paint, .. any common image editor.
- ..for vector graphics: Inkscape, CAD programs, Adobe Illustrator, ...
If you finished your image/graphics ...
- .. contact one of the people responsible for the lazzzor as said above.
- Bring your image/graphic on a USB drive to our lab and plug it into the cutting station next to the lazzzor.
- Import your File in Corel Draw x4 and check if every requirements have been met as listed above.
- Go to file > print (Datei > Drucken...), select the lazzzor.
- Click on properties (Eigenschaften) and you are ready to advance to the next stage.
The printer dialog
(screen caps?)
main tab
- Power, how much power to put into each lazzzor shot. for cutting, you want to use as little power as possible
- Speed, how fast the lazzzor moves.
- Frequency, how many times a lazzzor shot happens. This depends greatly on the material used.
These 3 parameters kinda intervene with each other. E.g. if you lower the Speed, you won't need as much Power and/or Frequency.. See theoretical experiments for further help. (Insert link!)
- Raster: for engraving
- Vector: for cutting
- Combined: for doing both! Engraving always comes first.
- basic: makes it look good, most of the time you'll want to use this.
- 3D: good for making stuff like holes for screws.
- stamp: yeah, that's for stamps, there are also 2 additional parameters for this one. (todo: indepth howto for stamps)
- Auto focus: important for making nice cuts, you also can do that manually (todo)
- Frequency Automatic: not tested yet! But it obviously states what it does, yes?
- Vector Sorting: algorithm which should calculate a good way to cut stuff. You probably should use a good image instead of relying on this, but most of the time it shouldn't cause any problems.
user settings
Here you can load and save settings created by other users.
warning! this doesn't mean they are automagically the best choice for your job! In some cases, quite the opposite is the case and you might end up damaging your material or the lazzzor. Still, in combination with the Cheat sheet included in the manual, you can figure out if there are some reasonable settings too.
Color Mapping
Depending on the colors you gave your vectors; you can set individual Power, Speed and Frequency settings for each color! Might come in handy, but most of the time you won't need it.
The Materials
If you want to cut or engrave something, bring your own material, though you can also use any leftovers or stuff which does not have a label on it. (of course labels which say "free for all" are ok, too). Feel free to donate a little extra if you use some materials.
Cutting / Engraving:
- anything made out of wood
- Acrylic
- Polypropylene
- Polystyrene (Styrofoam; set low Power & Speed!)
- Fabric (hm what about polyester?)
- ...
- Very very thin metals (foil or circuit board made out of brass) (--> indepth howto at example page?)
- Glass
- ...
Any material with Chlorine (Chlor) or Nitrogen (Stickstoff) as a compound. Dangerous fumes (hydrogen chloride, hydrogen cyanide or benzene gas) will be emitted when burned. Some examples:
|polyvinylchloride → hydrogen chloride
|polycarbonate → benzene
|--> benzene
|e.g. sponges for cleaning dishes
|acrylonitrile butadiene styrene → hydrogen cyanide
|Lego/Makerbot plastic
Other potentially dangerous stuff:
- BoPET Foil: as used in rescue blankets. has the ability to reflect big part of the IR spectrum. omg.
- ...
todo: should some materials be forbidden which are already used? special workflow instructions on potential dangerous materials! --> http://entropie.digital.udk-berlin.de/wiki/Laser_Cutter#FORBIDDEN_MATERIALS
to the lazzzor!
you have sent your job to the lazzzor and chosen your material of choice, now off you go my friend, you are a big boy/girl now, but still, there are some buttons you have to get familiar with first. (pwetty pictures!)
2 important buttons:
- "Go" aka Green Button aka "yea do that."
- "Stop" aka Red Button aka "no way, don't do that."
how to set your 0-point.
It's a good idea to set your home-point every time before a different job. This point is the starting position and represents the upper left corner in your image / workspace area.
- press "Pointer" (or what was it?) to make it visible/invisible
- press "X/Y", the display will say "X/Y - Off"
- press "Go" to unlock the lazzzor head
- you can now move the lazzzor freely along its x and y axis
- press "Set-Home" to set the current position as your home-point (this will be the top-left corner of your drawing in CorelDraw)
when to cancel/pause your job!
if you ...
- .. hear noises you are not used to hear
- .. see smoke gathering in the cutting area
- .. see something burning constantly. (One or two spurts of flame are okay when cutting acrylic (i think it was acrylic?))
Now, go on, push teh button!..
...BUT if this is your first time lazzzoring, speak to lazzzor-responsible people FIRST! BEFORE you start a job always TURN ON THE BELÜFTUNG IN CASE OF FIRE - only use the CO2 fire extinguisher on the left side a short burst should suffice to kill the flames.
How to Start, Pause and Cancel your job!
Final preparations:
- place the material inside the workspace of the lazzzor.
- If you haven't already done so, set your home position described above. its a handy thing to do.
Starting a job:
- The display of the lazzzor should read something like "Job: #1 ... ".
- thats most likely your job if you just turned on the lazzzor.
- press "Go" to start the job
Pause/Cancel a job
- press "Stop" at any given time to halt the lazzzoring process
- press "Go" to continue your job.
- press "Stop" again to cancel your job (which is more likely if you got this far :p)
possible misc ideas:
- die klappe besser abdichten mit nem gummi oder so.. auch praktisch beim zumachen damits nicht zukrachen bzw zerbrechen kann
- tatsächliche schadstoffe in der luft messen, was für ein gerät braucht man da? interessant wärs schon
taking care of the lazzor (separate page!)
- if you think your settings are pretty much okay but it still won't cut through then there is a possibility that the lazzzor needs some cleaning.
- gets s seperate "how to"
Some practical examples: (separate page?)
These (useful?) things are what people actually made and hopefully documented it for others to use. (hint hint)
Some theoretical/experimental examples: (separate page?)
This section explores different possibilities of parameters and their outcome. This is a good place to get you an idea on how to fine tune your parameters.
- The material
- different parameters 1
- different parameters 2
- different parameters 3
- Soap
- engraving a soap ended in the soap swelling, or so I've heard.

I can't figure out why I don't like Anne Hathaway. Or rather, why we don't. In all the social-media fallout from the Oscars, the Best Supporting Actress winner also almost won Most Detested Figure of the Night, finishing just behind Seth MacFarlane and the idiot at The Onion who tweeted a slur about 9-year-old Quvenzhané Wallis. "And what the Onion missed is that it's Anne Hathaway who's the real cunt. Right EVERY WOMAN ON THE INTERNET?" tweeted Buzzfeed's Jack Moore.
Unlike most strangers I claim to dislike (most conservative politicians, some friends' ex-boyfriends, and the aforementioned MacFarlane), Hathaway and I would probably get along swimmingly. She seems smart and self-possessed, savvy and successful. She's a spokesperson for Eve Ensler's anti-violence organization, One Billion Rising. And have you seen the clip of her shutting down Matt Lauer's creepy questions about her upskirt moment with a measured response about the commodification of female sexuality? It is on point. Yet she leaves me cold.
Does EVERY WOMAN ON THE INTERNET baselessly hate Anne Hathaway? I took a quick straw poll. "She is that theater kid with good intentions but secretly annoys the shit out of you," said one friend, adding, "You want to be excited for her and you are but deep down you are kind of rolling your eyes." Another replied, "I think someone told her she was America's sweetheart and she believed it." One friend placed her in the category of "really affected drama queens," saying, "I can imagine her non-ironically yelling 'Acting!'" In other words, she's always onstage, always calculated — not someone with whom you'd want to party or share your deepest secrets. "I am an Anne Hathaway supporter," said a friend who sidestepped the question of whether or not she finds the actress likable. "Sure, she's kind of needy, but so are all actors."
What does it really mean when we say an actress "annoys the shit" out of us, anyway? That we hate the roles she chooses? The paparazzi'd version of her life we see in US Weekly? Her insufficiently funny quips on the red carpet? Or, as Salon asked today, is it her face? In some ways, the point of sitting on the bleachers of celebrity culture is the thrill of judging with impunity. Unlike our neighbors or co-workers, we convince ourselves that famous actors, by dint of making their living entertaining us, have chosen to be judged. And judge we do. (This isn't just a byproduct of our Twitter-enforced instapundit culture, either: "Let's get Entertainment Weekly and play my favorite new game: Love Her/Hate Him," exclaims Will in a 1999 episode of Will & Grace.)
For someone who's managed to win our seemingly arbitrary love, look no further than Hathaway's fellow winning actress from Sunday night, the universally adored Jennifer Lawrence. She's self-effacing and funny. She seems like an excellent party companion, taking just about every opportunity to mention how many shots she's had (before appearing on Jimmy Kimmel, before the red carpet, after winning the Oscar for Best Actress). She doesn't seem overly serious about Hollywood, and gently chided Hollywood royalty Jack Nicholson, "You're being really rude," when he interrupted a post-win interview. She doesn't pretend that punishing body standards are anything but horrible. When she jokes about sucking in her stomach on the red carpet or her publicist hating her for eating a Philly cheesesteak ("There's only so much Spanx can cover up!"), it feels real, not designed to fool her fans into thinking she's not one of those salad-but-hold-the-dressing girls. Lawrence said she ordered McDonald's on the red carpet at the Oscars.
Hathaway is a vegan.
At first blush, though, the two actresses have much in common. They're both incredibly driven, making several films a year, and knew from a young age they wanted to be actresses. Much of what we love about Lawrence should also translate to love for Hathaway. When David Letterman asked Hathaway how she lost 25 pounds for her Les Miz role, she replied, "You don't want to know. It would just make you worry." J.Law drew props for confessing "I'm starving!" on the red carpet, but Hathaway has also described how she and Devil Wears Prada co-star Emily Blunt "would clutch at each other and cry because we were so hungry." Are these really that different?
The biggest difference between them is their interview and red-carpet persona. Hathaway doesn't have the same down-to-earth delivery. She's charming, but not funny. Meanwhile Lawrence manages to exude a best-friend vibe even at a behind-the-curtain Oscar press conference. Anyone who's frozen up in front of the camera or in front of a crowd knows how hard it is to play a version of yourself and seem "natural" with all eyes on you. That Hathaway struggles with this should make her more relatable to us. Yet "I watch her in outtakes, and I feel like she's not a real person," writes a blogger at Crushable.
By contrast, even though she's now an Oscar-winning actress, Lawrence still seems fresh. Hathaway, who has been acting for a decade and was a clear favorite for the Best Supporting Actress award, seems to fit the broader cultural pattern (I've called it the Hillary Catch-22) in which we simply don't find successful, "perfect" women very likable. Lawrence is well aware that it serves her well to stay the underdog. She told Chelsea Handler about being in the grocery store and seeing her face on magazine covers. "I was like, I'm going to be that person that everybody hates because it's like, 'Here I am!' all the time."
And she's probably right. "Young women in Hollywood cannot win, no matter what they do," writes Roxane Gay in a searing takedown of the racist and sexist humor that pervaded Oscar night. "There are more than a few smart jokes that could illustrate this rock and hard place women in Hollywood are crammed into." True, for actresses, cultivating a public personality is part of the job. And irrationality is part of being a fan. (See: the fact that Meryl Streep picks her wedgie and we love her all the more for it.) But it's worth examining whether our biases have any basis. "It does get to me," Hathaway said of all the hate she has to deal with. After all, imagine what it would feel like to know that thousands of women are passing judgment every moment you open your mouth?
"Ladies," began a Monday night tweet from Lena Dunham, someone who knows something about the hate of strangers, "Anne Hathaway is a feminist and she has amazing teeth. Let's save our bad attitudes for the ones who aren't advancing the cause."

Thalia Michelle and Rainna Moran were promoting the Thinking Mom's Revolution book, and went on a local New Orleans station to discuss on a show called The 504 with Melanie Hebert. They also had a local ABA therapist, PhD Koren Boggs. Boggs did not like their vaccine stance, it got heated, so Ms. Hebert had Boggs and TMR back on the following night to debate the issue. Kim Spencer was up for TMR this time, and wiped the floor with Boggs, who actually even repeated the "thimerosal in the MMR" cluelessness.
So I got mad, wrote this piece, and made this video, which ran last week on the TMR blog:
Dr. Koran Boggs Is An Idiotby Ginger TaylorIt's harsh... I know... but I can't take this crap any more. She should know better.It has been NINE YEARS for me since my son regressed after DTaP, Hep B and three other shots, while I have to hear the lie that, "there is no association between vaccines and autism," repeated over and over and over and over... That made me nuts back when there were less than ten research papers that showed a link, and now I know of 70!
Including one that showed that our own federal government has paid at least 83 autism cases from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, while also pretending that vaccines could not possibly cause autism.
I just can't stand the deceit any more.So when I saw Kim's debate with Dr. Koran Boggs, I got so angry I had to stop half way through and take a long break just so I didn't have a neurological event.
Then I just needed to rant:
You can see why the seasoned Pharma/Public Health talking heads never agree to be in a debate with any of us. They can't get away with the usual BS talking points. ;)So the list of research is growing steadily, as more people see it and sent me studies that I have missed, so these links will be updated regularly. You can view it on my blog, on Facebook to share there, or in a Word doc. Please spread them around any time you hear the lie that "the vaccine/autism causation theory has been debunked because is based on one retracted British study and the opinion of a playboy model and that there is not one study that supports the theory that vaccines cause autism."
In fact, share them right now. Then share this video.
And here is the information on Bill Posey bill's to force the vaxxed/unvaxxed study that CDC still won't do after thirty plus years. Call your congressman and ask him to be a co-sponsor. Do it. And then share it too.Now on the
study... she is referring to Honda's study, "No effect of MMR withdrawal on the incidence of autism: a total population study." If you read the abstract, which I have linked to, it gives the impression that this is a study that compares kids who got the MMR to unvaccinated children, to see if there was a difference in autism rates: Japan
"The MMR vaccination rate in the city of Yokohama declined significantly in the birth cohorts of years 1988 through 1992, and not a single vaccination was administered in 1993 or thereafter."However, when you read the actual study itself, you find that the study was done when
(which using the MMR with the Urabe strain Mumps vaccine) realized that it was causing meningitis, and yanked the vaccine. They replaced it with the single dose version of the Measles vaccine, the Mumps vaccine and the Rubella vaccine: Japan
"However, due to a high frequency of reports of aseptic meningitis, a suspected side effect of the mumps vaccine (Urabe strain), the program was terminated in April 1993. Subsequently, only monovalent vaccines were administered. Following a reform of the Immunization Law in 1994, measles and rubella vaccinations were each specified for children between the ages of 12 and 90 months (the measles vaccine was recommended between 12 and 24 months of age and the rubella vaccine between 12 and 36 months). The mumps vaccination was voluntary and aimed at children one year of age or older who had not contracted mumps. It was also stipulated that an interval of at least four weeks separate administration of vaccinations."
So this not a vaxxed v. unvaxxed study, this is a vaxxed v. vaxxed slightly differently study. The way this study is done, it actually asks the question, "is the MMR that
was using the SOLE cause of autism." And not one person in the debate thought the MMR was the only cause of autism at the time. In 2005 when the study was published, David Kirby had just written Evidence of Harm, parents were trying to find Hg free vaccines and as we know... Thimerosal was never in the MMR. Japan
If anything is to be gained at all from this study, it is evidence that splitting up the MMR vaccine into individual shots may not be of any help in avoiding an autism regression.
And we can see that from her poor understanding of the Honda study, Dr. Boggs either ONLY read the abstract, and made some assumptions, or someone just told her that this was a vaxxed/unvaxxed study and she didn't bother to check for herself. (Likely the same person who told her that there is no research that supports the vaccine/autism causation theory.)And here is CDC's MMWR on the chelation deaths. 1 boy with autism. 1 girl with lead poisoning, both accidently given Na2EDTA instead of the appropriate drug for them, CaEDTA, with which they had both been treated successfully prior to the drug mix up. A third woman died, believed to be using the same version of EDTA, and all three deaths were associated with hypocalcemia (basically the Na2EDTA pulled all the calcium out of their blood.) In talking with docs, it is my understanding that Calcium EDTA is now becoming the standard drug for chelating both adults and children. We chelated our own son with IV CaEDTA with wonderful results and no side effects.So, to Dr. Boggs... Kim said you were wrong, and as we see here, you were wrong. No Thimerosal in the MMR, vaxxed/unvaxxed autism research does not exist per CDC's own testimony under oath only 8 months ago, and we have presented here 70 research papers that show not just one, but MANY links between vaccines and autism.
We await your formal letter retracting your false claims, and I believe it would be most appropriate for you to send the letter to Ms. Hebert so it may be read on her show, "The 504," where you disseminated your errant information in the first place.Because it is all about the science... and the children... right?
That same day I wrote to Boggs, and copied her director at Children's Hospital of New Orleans and the reporter who aired the stories:
Aaaaaaaaaaaaannd.... no response.
-------- Original Message --------
Subject: Your 504 debate appearance Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2013 13:39:47 -0400 From: Ginger Taylor To: Koren Boggs CC: Kim Spencer, Jodi Kamps , Melanie Hebert
Dear Dr. Boggs,
I am the mother of a child who regressed into autism following his 18 month vaccines and now work in vaccine safety advocacy nearly full time. I hold a Masters of Science from Johns Hopkins in mental health, and I am currently providing research for the House Committee on Oversight & Government Reform for their upcoming hearings into the federal Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (the second in this past year their series on vaccine safety, autism, and associated disorders.)
As some one who has been looking at the vaccine/autism issue for almost a decade, while working to heal my son, it was extremely upsetting to me to hear you repeating falsehoods on your appearance on The 504.
I was moved to make a video addressing you directly and taking apart your claims. It is now posted, along with a letter and links disproving your statements, on the Thinking Mom's Revolution web site. http://thinkingmomsrevolution.com/when-doctors-lie-oh-hell-no/ It is harsh and direct (deservedly, I believe), and I am hoping that it will humble you to the point that you examine yourself and your claims, and that you will do the right thing and retract your statements that:
1. There was mercury in the MMR. (You have confused two different autism causation theories)
2. That there is vaccinated v. unvaccinated autism research. (Note the video of the CDC being forced under oath eight months ago to admit there is none.)
3. There is no research supporting vaccine autism causation, and the entire theory is based on one study published fifteen years ago. (70 Studies that show a link.)
I await your reply to my video and demand for a formal retraction. Kim Spencer was right, and you do a disservice to your credibility, to Ms. Spencer, and to all those affected by autism, by letting your errant pronouncements stand.
Ginger Taylor, MS

Bruce Willis honored in FrancePARIS - Actor Bruce Willis has been awarded the Commander of the Arts in France for his contribution to cinema.
The 57-year-old, whose latest film is "A Good Day to Die Hard,'' told the Paris ceremony Monday night that he feels honored that his work has been recognized. His attended the event with his wife, Emma Heming.
Willis was born in Europe and said he feels at home in France.
But the star said he opposes President Francois Hollande's plan to tax the richest at 75 percent and hopes he would be able to complain about it if he lived in France.
Willis also said in an interview that he thinks there'll be more "Die Hard'' movies to come. The one out now is the fifth.
