Why Do We Get Upset
There has been a question by shooters once again -- Why do we get upset when someone other than the rifle card holder shoot the rifle. See attached PDF for the latest reason. Failure to follow the rules will ultimately ruin it for all

Can a lead core bullet do that kind of damage to steal? Or are these green tips? Also do card holders need to qualify or is it just a written test? The folks new to the sport and "gun ho" on firing that new "toy" they just got due to the fear of our current administration banning most everything but really haven't a clue about how to safely operate, just scare me.
Yes lead core rifle projectiles will cause significant damage to steel. I have seen it happen several times and I'm sure it won't be the last time I see it. A .223 55gr shot out of an AR have caused significant cratering on the hangers. You can guess how much damage a higher caliber round can cause.
Prospective rifles shooters will need to demonstrate safe handling of rifles on the lane and basic markmanship skills in order to qualify for the permit. The shot grouping must be within 2". CWM4A1 is very good about running the class and working with us to get permits into the hands of people who demonstrate that they can use rifles safely around other people.
Hope that helps answer your question.

Late to the party. Even Lead-Core rounds can ding up the hanger easy, and resulting ricochet may take out a light fixture or strings that pulls the trolly and set target to different distance.
As for the part about the class, it's more to address our range specific safety rule and qualification is 15 yards, 3 shot group less than 5". If you have being shooting for a little bit this should be very easy to achieve.
What I have ran into lately was people with no prior experience taking the rifle safety class thinking this is a class teaching them how to shoot rifle. This is really a safety class with proficiency qualification and nothing more. Anyone who wants to learn how to shoot we do offer separate basic rifle class to teach them how to shoot, starting with a .22LR.

I have been a regular at OnTarget for a while now...I really should take the time to do the high power rifle class to get the card. I only got a .243 savage atm, but I am sure it'll come in handy when I get an AR.

If you're looking for a way to provide your family financial assistance when you are no longer with them, whole life insurance, also known as "permanent life insurance," may be a good place to start. Whole life insurance rates.
What is whole life insurance?
Whole life insurance is defined by the following three factors.
1. It can provide coverage that can last your entire life and doesn't require renewal as long as you make regular payments, called the "premium."
2. The premiums you pay for the policy can give you access to cash value while you're living.*
3. Typically, premiums never increase.
Health insurance companies
These features make whole life insurance different from the initially lower-cost term life insurance.
Why should I buy whole life insurance?
If you're over 50, you may choose to buy whole life insurance because it can last for life and premiums won't increase with age. Or if you have an expiring term policy, you may want to convert it to a whole life policy to help ensure you maintain coverage. Whatever your reasons, explore your options by gathering and comparing whole life insurance quotes.
But isn't whole life insurance too expensive for anyone over 50?
With life expectancies rising and insurers competing for your business, whole life insurance rates are more affordable than you might think. You may be surprised at what you can put in place to help make your family's future more secure. In any case, it costs you nothing to find out. Keep in mind that rates for whole life coverage are usually based on the age you are when you secure it, so the younger you are when you apply, the lower your rate may be.
Is whole life insurance hard to get?
Although some whole life policies require in-depth underwriting, others don't require any medical exam or blood work. In fact, the application process for no medical exam life insurance can be surprisingly simple. You generally just provide some basic health information and answer a few questions on a short application.
What is cost of insurance for life insurance
Many insurance companies offer free online quotes and the option to apply online or directly by mail in just a few minutes. If you decide that whole life insurance is right for you, do your research and select a stable company with strong financial strength ratings that you can count on in the future.

*Cash value is accessed via policy loans which accrue interest and reduce the cash value and death benefit.

Thank you. Now perhaps I can sound intelligent when dealing with the bill collectors who repeatedly call for the guy who had my number before me.
Gone are the days when debt collectors only hassled the lazy, financially inept, or the completely downtrodden and hopelessly unlucky. More and more consumers are being contacted by debt collectors as part of an attempt to be paid for past due accounts, either for their own debt, debt inherited as a condition of a death in the family, or as a horrible consequence to an identity theft. Whether or not you actually owe the money, the rules are the same. Debt collectors acting as a third-party interest in past-due accounts are bound by the laws of the FDCPA. Learning what they can (and more importantly: CAN'T do) is vital to protecting your rights and preventing undue stress.
The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act , often referred to as the "FDCPA", was passed by Congress in response to abusive conduct by collection agencies. Actions that are considered illegal under the Act include:
Other illegal tactics include asking for you to provide checking account numbers or post-dated checks with the intention of prosecuting you if they come back "insufficient" from your bank. They also may not charge interest or collection fees not stated in your original purchase contract or that may be prohibited by state law.
The FDCPA also requires that agencies send a written notice within 5 days of their first contact with you. This notice must include:
A "Mini-Miranda warning" must be included in the notice. This is a statement letting you know that the notice is from a debt collector any information obtained may be used to collect the debt. Every notice or letter from the agency from this point on must also contain the warning.
While there are many reputable, law-abiding collection agencies out there, it is best to make yourself aware of the proper recourse should you encounter a stinker. If you experience any problems with an agency violating the laws of the FDCPA, please contact your state Attorney General's office. If you are dealing with an out-of-state agency, you may also call the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-382-4357 (877-FTC-HELP). Being educated is the key to being protected. Know the law, and you can keep an old debt from ruining your life!

Thank you. Now perhaps I can sound intelligent when dealing with the bill collectors who repeatedly call for the guy who had my number before me.
I've had debts sold to various collection agencies, and the further down the food chain the more vicious the become. I've been threatened with the police thing before, been called a loser and other name. The worst thing though was that a company held my phone hostage for about 10 minutes.
The agency called and I spoke with them, at the time I was unemployed and I told them plainly "I do not know" and hung up. Well I went to pick up the phone to call a family member about the situation and they were still were there, they wouldn't hang up. I hung up the phone again, made my call on my cellphone & picked up the land line again they still were there. At that point I told them that they were harrassing me. I don't know how they did it.
It is awful and embarrassing enough to be in debt, it is a state no one wants to be in, and they definitely add fuel to the fire. I became more avoidant of my debts because I didn't want to even pick up the phone anymore, and didn't.
The rest is out of context, but anyway thank you for your post.
If you were spoken to in this manner, the collector clearly broke the law. They cannot use any defaming remarks toward you, use profanity, threaten you physically, threaten to have you arrested, or threaten to evict you from your home if you don't pay. Additionally, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act allows a debtor to make the collection agency cease all communication if the debtor informs them, in writing, that they wish no further contact. While this doesn't cancel the debt, it does allow you some breathing room and, if they still call and harass you, there's another strike against them. Knowledge is power. He who does not know and invoke his rights is the same as he who has no rights.
"....debt inherited as a condition of a death in the family..."
Ahem!!! Debt is not inherited by family members. Maybe in the middle ages, but not in the U.S.
But I imagine that there are debt collectors who would like to make you believe it.
Linsey, your post is spot on. How did you find out all this? I've unfortunately had to deal with creditors in the past (many, MANY thanks to an ex-boyfriend who put stuff in my name) and a couple of them got really nasty with me. I was at a loss when they did so because I knew I wasn't in the wrong, but the situations got complicated, etc. Anyways, thanks so much for great information!
While most people probably have grounds for disputing the "inherited debt", here in Nebraska (where the family farm is still the most common occupation) it most definitely is a reality. Granted, that with the debt comes the land and assets, but usually the ends don't justify the means.
And with aging grandparents naming children as executors of their estates, it may not technically be "your" debt, but you may be responsible to administer payment. Debt collectors don't often care who pays, how they pay, or with who's money. They can be equally ferocious.....
And to answers Barbara's question, before my current life as a WAHM to 4 babies, I was a project manager for a subrogation and overpayment collection firm. It was very upstanding, and as part of our employment with the agency, we were required to take week-long courses on the FDCPA. Debt collection can be an honorable occupation if done lawfully and with respect.
Thanks for all the great feedback!
Hey, I also wanted to point out that in every state of the union (I believe) there is a statute of limitations on debt. SuzeOrman.com lists the lengths for each state at her website here: http://urltea.com/1jxa
Basically, this means that if the collection agency or credit card company doesn't sue you within the amount of time for the state you're in they can't legally sue you. In other words, say you lose your job and can't afford to pay your monthly payment. The moment that they cash that last check is when the statute of limitations begins. In my state, California, it's four years. I paid nothing to anyone and incurred no new debt since the late 1990s. In 2005 I got served but didn't know what I was doing. Don't do what I did and fail to file an opposition once papers have been served.
I was ignorant and trusting that the justice system would adhere to the "innocent until proven guilty" principle, which it didn't. When someone sues you, you MUST reply in a court of law or else the judge in the case will assume that the claim is true and rule against you. It's ridiculous but it's true--it happened to me. Of course, once they rule against you, I'm not sure how they can force the money out of you. It's been nearly a year and I've heard nothing past the initial "here's what you owe us, chump" letter from the law firm that sued me. I don't have that kind of money laying around so I didn't reply. Plus my lawyer was still planning an appeal.
So, the moral of the story is, file an opposition as soon as they go for a "request for summary judgement". I don't know how to file one, but I'm sure Google can help you learn. In the opposition you just say that you have no record of the debt and need to see proof. If they provide proof, check the date of the last collected dollar from you--if it's further back than your state's statute of limitations allows, then you call them on it. Supposedly, collection agencies can't even prove that the debt is yours in most cases.
Of course, the ultimate solution is to simply not ever answer the door. If I hadn't that one fateful day back in 2005, I'd never had to go through any of it. :(
I've also heard that when you get a letter from a collection agency for a debt, ask them to provide proof ASAP. Do this in writing. I've read that this scares them off and they'll leave you alone because most collection agencies can't provide the actual contract you signed when you applied for the credit card.
Now, all of that is according to MY EXPERIENCE. I COULD BE WRONG. I'm no expert in anything but my own experience (and even then...). So, do your own research! I do hope my experiences help people. :)
I just had a collection company call me regarding a debt I have been paying a little bit at a time. I told them last month that I would be sending payment every month and thought that stopped the calls?
They informed me that the company (I owe the debt to) ran a credit report on me to see if I could afford a line of credit - is this okay to do?
When I said I had no credit currently he wanted me to tell him every debt I had so they could work out a payment plan. I told him I had never heard of anything in my life and why would I tell him all my debts and how much I owed people. Is this legit?
I had a sleasy collector try this one on me about 16 years ago. All they want is to collect the debt in full because it means a bigger commision for them. No one can force you to take a loan. As for the collector who tried this on me, I refused and then he proceeded to get nasty and ask me if I was too lazy to make an effort to pay my bills. What the moron didn't know is that the call was recorded and I forwarded it to the AG's office. The guy got fired and the agancy, to avoid a lawsuit, cancelled the debt and removed it form my credit report. Know your rights and USE them!
Sometimes when you are extended credit or receive services from a company, you give them permission to run credit checks on you as needed per the terms of your contract (cell phones, insurance, and credit cards are big ones that do this.) So it is possible that anyone with an interest in collecting the original debt may have permission to run a credit check.
I believe that they are just trying to snow you. Regardless of what your credit report shows, it will NOT show how much you make and the total amounts of all your bills (utilities, food, etc) so it would impossible for anyone to determine that you can afford a higher payment or quicker payoff.
My advice is to NOT give them any more information regarding other debts owed. That is none of their business. They are not debt counselors with your financial interest at heart. They are trying to get paid. Period. (And if they can get paid before your other lenders, awesome for them!)
While it is questionable as to how legally binding this may be, you can try the check endoresement contract trick. The next time you send them a check or money order, write something like "endorsement of this check accepts the repayment terms of $(amount) per month until the debt is paid in full"
This way, if they do cash it, you can go back and say that by cashing it they agreed to taking payments. This doesn't always work, but it at least shows them that you are serious about repaying your debt on terms set by you, not them.
How long will judgments, liens and collections stay on your credit report?
Does Georgia's statue of limitations us oral or written?
They stay for 7 years unless you dispute them and have them successfully removed earlier (which I highly recommend trying if the debt isn't very old). Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays for 10 years and chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. If you pay a judgment, lien, or collection account, your report must state that the item is paid. However, if it is something that is almost 7 years old, DO NOT pay it! If you do, the 7 year cycle starts over again. If a creditor hasn't come after you for that long, it is likely they won't and, depending on your state, the statute of limitations may have been reached. If the debt is that old, DO NOT PAY, even if you're contacted by a collection agency 10 or 15 years later. If you pay them even one penny at that point, you just started the cycle over again and this could open the door for legal action. They will prey on your lack of knowledge. Remember, knowledge is power!
This post saved my home life and my sanity in 12 hours. It helped me get peace in my own home and it showed me that almost all the companies I deal with are willing to bend and break the law. I have been on the receiving end of many horrible threats this entire summer. Predictions of gloom and doom and the loss of my home, marriage, and my ability to take care of my kids. In just 12 hours they have changed their tune and I have gained control and no longer have fear in my life daily. Fear, they use it so easily as if it was a just another tool. I am done being a victim and done being threatened
She and her husband are seperated one in Flordia one in New York. She has no money and is being called 3 times a day by the collection unit to try to make her pay for the lease her husband turned back in Flordia. She did sign the lease papers. Is there anything she can do to protect herself from his debt while they were married?
I feel your sister's pain. Since I'm not an attorney, I can't advise on anything, except to recommend that she see an attorney (there are free and low-cost legal aids that can start her in the process of protecting her assets, if need be.) Also, legal separation is usually a factor in an instance like this, as it documents with the court that she is trying to make a break from the union (assets and all.) Whether your sister lives in a community property state may have some bearing on the outcome of this -- also, whether or not the Chrysler debt was incurred prior to the marriage or during will influence the courts to side with you or your husband.
Good luck!

My wifes creditcard company has had a law firm contact her and they stated there was a judgement against us by Canyon State Credit and sent her a letter stating "terms" that we had to abide to, and we agreed to a bi-weekly payment plan. Now they have contacted her to notify her that on the basis of a few late payments, they have contacted our Payroll departments and if we don't pay the amount they(Canyon State Credit)want, they will attach our wages to the tune of 25% of our "disposable income". How can they do this? Are they legal, or just a threat to get more? Should I hire an attorney, can't really afford one.
I unfortunately had to turn to a payday loan and still owe them $141.00. I am a single parent of three kids and can only afford to pay them in payments. They refuse to accept a payment plan. Today I had one of the supervisors call me and say that I must have my lawyer contact them by 1pm regarding my loan or they were going to be filing fraud charges for a bounced automatic withdrawl from my bank account. Also that they had put a hold on my drivers license and he proceeded to give me my drivers license number.
I explained that my hours and pay had been cut at work and that I could only afford payments of $25.00 every two weeks, they responded that I could not pay on my own terms and that I should have thought about not being able to pay before signing up for the loan. Again I told him my circumstances had changed and that at no time had I said that I wasn't going to pay off the loan. I had every intention of paying it off, only I couldn't pay in full.
Can they put a hold on your drivers license??? How do I deal with people like this? I need your help!!!
This normally never fails to make them disapear.

Re: Acct # XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
To Whom It May Concern:
This letter is being sent to you in response to a notice sent to me on September 30, 2002). Be advised that this is not a refusal to pay, but a notice sent pursuant to the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 USC 1692g Sec. 809 (b) that your claim is disputed and validation is requested.
This is NOT a request for "verification" or proof of my mailing address, but a request for VALIDATION made pursuant to the above named Title and Section. I respectfully request that your offices provide me with competent evidence that I have any legal obligation to pay you.
Please provide me with the following:
# What the money you say I owe is for;
# Explain and show me how you calculated what you say I owe;
# Provide me with copies of any papers that show I agreed to pay what you say I owe;
# Provide a verification or copy of any judgment if applicable;
# Identify the original creditor;
# Prove the Statute of Limitations has not expired on this account
# Show me that you are licensed to collect in my state
# Provide me with your license numbers and Registered Agent
At this time I will also inform you that if your offices have reported invalidated information to any of the 3 major Credit Bureau's (Equifax, Experian or TransUnion) this action might constitute fraud under both Federal and State Laws. Due to this fact, if any negative mark is found on any of my credit reports by your company or the company that you represent I will not hesitate in bringing legal action against you for the following:
* Violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act
* Violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
* Defamation of Character
If your offices are able to provide the proper documentation as requested in the following Declaration, I will require at least 30 days to investigate this information and during such time all collection activity must cease and desist.
Also during this validation period, if any action is taken which could be considered detrimental to any of my credit reports, I will consult with my legal counsel for suit. This includes any listing any information to a credit reporting repository that could be inaccurate or invalidated or verifying an account as accurate when in fact there is no provided proof that it is.
If your offices fail to respond to this validation request within 30 days from the date of your receipt, all references to this account must be deleted and completely removed from my credit file and a copy of such deletion request shall be sent to me immediately.
I would also like to request, in writing, that no telephone contact be made by your offices to my home or to my place of employment. If your offices attempt telephone communication with me, including but not limited to computer generated calls and calls or correspondence sent to or with any third parties, it will be considered harassment and I will have no choice but to file suit. All future communications with me MUST be done in writing and sent to the address noted in this letter by USPS.
It would be advisable that you assure that your records are in order before I am forced to take legal action. This is an attempt to correct your records, any information obtained shall be used for that purpose.
Best Regards,
Your Signature

Double accounting in energy footprint and related assessments : how common is it and what are the consequences? (2021)
The number of input-output assessments focused on energy has grown considerably in the last years. Many of these assessments combine data from multi-regional input-output (MRIO) databases with energy extensions that completely or partially depict the different stages through which energy products are supplied or used in the economy. The improper use of some energy extensions can lead to double accounting of some energy flows, but the frequency with which this happens and the potential impact on the results are unknown. Based on a literature review, we estimate that around a quarter of the MRIO-based energy assessments reviewed incurred into double accounting. Using the EXIOBASE MRIO database, we also analyse the effects of double accounting in the absolute values and rankings of different countries' and products' energy footprints. Building on the insights provided by our analysis, we offer a set of key recommendations to MRIO users to avoid the double accounting problem in the future. Likewise, we conclude that the harmonisation of the energy data across MRIO databases led by experts could simplify the choices of the data users until the provision of official energy extensions by statistical offices becomes a widespread practice.

Skylanders SWAP Force changing the game with new, customizable characters
Not to be outdone by DisneyInfinity, Activision made an announcement today that shows they still have a few tricks up their sleeve. Being featured February 10-13 at Toy Fair 2013 in New York City, Activision revealed Skylanders SWAP Force, the next installment in the popular Skylanders franchise. It's an appropriate name considering that 'swapability' is the main feature of the game.
Skylanders SWAP Force will use a new gameplay mechanic called 'swapability' that lets you swap the top and bottom halves of the Skylanders toys to create your own characters. With 16 SWAP Force characters, Portal Masters will be able to reconfigure them into more than 250 unique combinations. What this does is mix and match characters' powers and moves, which you can then use in the game. If you don't feel like buying more than the Starter Pack for SWAP Force -- especially if you're like me and dumped a lot of money into a collection of Skylanders Giants characters -- you can use your entire collection of characters from both Skylanders Spyro's Adventure and Skylanders Giants, now with the added capability of jumping. Say what?!!! Jumping?! What's next...crouching?
Skylanders SWAP Force is an all-new adventure that takes place in the mysterious Cloudbreak Islands; it's home to a mystical volcano that erupts every hundred years to replenish the magic in Skylands. During a battle, some brave Skylanders were caught in the volcano's eruption, which blasted them apart and sent them to earth. Don't fret, for the magic of the volcano gave those Skylanders the power to swap halves, turning them into a special team known as the SWAP Force. Returning is Kaos, back with another evil plan, and the only way to save Skylands is to reassemble the SWAP Force in their original form or in new combinations.
Like I said, there are 16 new SWAP Force characters, along with 32 core Skylanders characters (16 new Skylanders and 16 new versions of fan favorites) and eight new Lightcore characters.
Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision Publishing, Inc., said: "With Skylanders, we didn't just create a beloved new franchise, we actually created an entirely new category that brings the world of physical toys and video games together like never before. And now with Skylanders SWAP Force, we are pushing the genre we created forward with another big innovation: customization. The idea that kids can customize their own characters in the physical world, and have their unique combinations recognized in the virtual world, is an idea as big as the concept of bringing toys to life itself."
I'm sure kids will get a kick out of combining certain characters top and bottom halves, and I'm curious to see exactly how customizable you can get with abilities (like whether you get to choose which abilities you want from each half). Skylanders created this new way to play video games, but with Disney Infinity about to get in on it, does swapping top
and bottom halves offer enough 'different' and 'creative' gameplay? Like the other games, SWAP Force will undoubtedly have the great Skylanders humor, so I'm not at all worried about the game being good. We'll just have to wait until some hands-on time to see whether or not swapping halves of characters is as exciting of an experience that they're making it out to be. Regardless, more Skylanders isn't a bad thing.

Posts Tagged 'Open Records'
A good Reason to have more Open Records
This posting is not about Upstate New York Genealogy in particular, but emphasizes why it is so important to have totally open records access. Our recent discussions about the New York State Vital Records has created quite a lot of interest in how to access Birth, Death and Marriage Records in NYS, and this announcement from our friend, Sharon Sergeant in Massachusetts details how some open records allowed herself and some other genealogists, historians and detectives to uncover an International fraud.
Genealogist Cracks Holocaust Hoax, Discovery Highlights Need for Open Records.
Sharon Sergeant will speak about how she cracked a hoax at the Massachusetts
Genealogical Council Seminar on April 26 at noon, at the LaCava Center,
Bentley College, Waltham, MA. Sergeant is the genealogist who uncovered the
twenty-year multinational fraud by Misha Defonseca, author of "Misha: A
Mémoire of the Holocaust Years" and "Surviving with Wolves", an
international bestseller and the subject of a French feature film,
The European press was rocked when, on February 28, the beloved author
confessed that her story, translated into eighteen languages, was a fraud. The
author had claimed to be a Jewish "hidden child" who had lost her identity
in the Holocaust.
"The international scope of this case underscores the need for open records
available to the public for inspection. Without this right, researchers are
not able to protect the public from frauds of this type," according to
Barbara Mathews, CG, President of the Massachusetts Genealogical Council.
Defonseca's native Belgium closed vital records in 1955. When open records in
Massachusetts provided new information, they pointed a pathway to Belgian
records that were not sealed. When the combined records showed the fraud,
Belgian officials decided to release additional sealed documents.
"Once we began releasing the records we had found, the Belgian press took it
from there. Within days of receiving the correct name, date and place of birth
of the real Monique De Wael, journalists contacted several people who
remembered Monique well." The author wasn't Jewish and had spent her
childhood in Belgium, not wandering across Europe, witnessing the historic
tragedies of other people's lives, as she had claimed.
"She had no choice but to confess," says Sergeant. "There was a solid
trail of who she really was." The documents included a baptismal record and
first grade registration with De Wael's first husband's sister, unearthed
through the efforts of Sergeant and her team.
"The genealogical methods used are the same techniques that can be used to
uncover other frauds or solve every day mysteries in anyone's family
history," Sergeant explains. "We were guided by a photo time line,
verified by photo detective Maureen Taylor of Norwood, Massachusetts and
California based forensic genealogist Colleen Fitzpatrick. We worked with real
Jewish hidden children. The internet allowed us to work quickly with people on
the ground in Belgium and access the records in public libraries and
Among the many other speakers at the Conference who will be discussing
genealogical tools and methods are Joshua Taylor and Michael Leclerc from the
New England Historic and Genealogical Society; and Michael Brophy and Bernard
Couming from the Massachusetts Genealogical Council.
The Annual Conference is an all day event sponsored by The Massachusetts
Genealogical Council and is open to the public. The registration cost of $75
includes a continental breakfast and luncheon buffet. Registration forms for
the presentation are available at the Massachusetts Genealogical Council's
website: www.massgencouncil.com.

Citation: Piccolo, B.D., Dolnikowski, G., Seyoum, E., Thomas, A., Gertz, E.R., Souza, E.C., Keim, N.L., Adams, S.H., Newman, J.W., Woodhouse, L.R., Van Loan, M.D. 2013. Association between subcutaneous white adipose tissue and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D in overweight and obese adults. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. 5(9), 3352-3366. DOI:10.3390/nu5093352.
Interpretive Summary: Vitamin D can be obtained from food and from the body's own metabolic process to make vitamin D from exposure to sunlight. Despite these 2 sources for vitamin D, many individuals have low blood levels of vitamin because of poor food choices and a lack of sun exposure. Epidemiologic data has shown that as body mass index (BMI) increases blood levels of vitamin D are lower. Results from these large cross-sectional studies and animal models suggest that vitamin D may be sequestered in fat tissue and thus lower vitamin D levels in overweight and obese people. Therefore, we conducted a study in which fat tissue samples were obtained from overweight and obese adults before and after weight loss to determine the vitamin D concentration in fat tissue and if the levels in fat tissue change with weight loss. We found a significant positive relationship between vitamin D concentration in fat tissue and in blood, but the levels did not change with weight loss suggesting that vitamin D in fat tissue is not returned to blood with weight and fat loss.
Technical Abstract: Background: Cholecalciferol is known to be deposited in human adipose tissue, but the distribution of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) in adipose tissue is not known. Objectives: To determine whether 25(OH)D is detectable in subcutaneous white adipose tissue (SWAT) in overweight and obese persons and to determine if SWAT 25(OH)D concentration changed after weight loss. Design: This study was a subset of a larger 15-week weight loss intervention during energy restriction in overweight and obese. Gluteal SWAT biopsies from 20 subjects at baseline and post-intervention were collected. SWAT was analyzed for 25(OH)D by LC/MS/MS. Serum 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D were measured by RIA. Body composition was assessed by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. Results: SWAT 25(OH)D concentrations were 5.8 ± 2.6 nmol/kg tissue and 6.2 ± 2.7 nmol/kg tissue pre- and post-intervention SWAT, respectively. There was a significant positive association between SWAT 25(OH)D concentration and serum 25(OH)D concentration (r = 0.52, P < 0.01) Conclusion: We detected 25(OH)D in SWAT of overweight and obese adults and these concentrations correlated closely with serum 25(OH)D concentrations. SWAT 25(OH)D concentrations did not significantly change after a moderate reduction in overall adiposity, suggesting that adipose 25(OH)D was not released into circulation with weight loss. More research is needed to understand the interaction between serum and adipose pools of 25(OH)D.

Laser surgical treatment for Allergic Rhinitis
Allergic rhinitis is when a person suffers from blocked or inflamed nasal passages, usually due to allergens both outdoors and indoors. Some people are affected with this rhinitis year-round, while others have reactions only at certain times during the year, usually referred to as seasonal allergies.
Sufferers of allergic rhinitis complain of consistent post-nasal drip, watery and itchy eyes, recurring sneezing fits, nasal congestion, headaches and fatigue. There are physical attributes associated with allergic rhinitis as well, such as dark bags under the eyes, redness of the whites of the eyes, puffy eyelids and creases under the eyes. Many people also have nasal polyps, which can be surgically removed.
Antihistamines, which help block allergic reactions, can be taken orally or spray form. Nasal decongestants help to break up the blockage in the sinuses and help clear up headaches and stuffy ears. Eye drops help to relieve itchiness and redness, and hydrate dry eyes.
Nasal corticosteroid sprays can also be used to alleviate symptoms.
Although surgery will not cure allergic rhinitis, it can help make the process of treatment easier. For example, if the patient's nose has any kind of physical defect that inhibits breathing, that can seriously aggravate allergic rhinitis.
There are two surgeries that can be performed to alleviate these problems. One is endoscopic surgery, which can help to remove nasal polyps or a deviated septum .
Laser Surgery
Co2 laser is used to shrink a small amount of turbinate tissue in the nasal passages. Allergies cause swelling of turbinates which promotes nasal blockage and breathing problems. Laser allergy surgery reduces the sizes of the turbinates to alleviate or eliminate the possibility of swelling making it easier to breathe. The surgery takes approximately fifteen minutes done under local anesthesia.
To ensure consultation on time, please fix your appointment well in advance.

What does BBM for Android will bring in?
BBM for Android.. What to Expect?
As soon as the news that beta version BBM or Blackberry Messenger is out for Android, it created ripples of sensation around the technology critic world. Although, it is not officially available for the public as Blackberry intended the beta testing phase for an exclusive group of volunteers.
BBM is originally an exclusive messenger application for Blackberry users. It is one of the aspects that contributed to the early success of Blackberry Smartphones, although it's significance and relevancy is gradually crashing to the ground after new messenger applications such as Whatsapp, WeChat, Line, etc emerged.
Multi-Platform compatibility of these new messenger applications drove their way to success, because you can connect and communicate with your friends using any Smartphone platform such as Android, IOS, Symbian, Windows and Blackberry as well. Guess, RIM eventually realized it's mistake and plans to integrate it's technology with gigantic user base of Android and the IOS.
Numerous users criticized it's absence of Android and IOS version earlier, since the user base of Blackberry is hitting a rock bottom recently, due to the sharp drop in sales and the market share.
BBM Features (Android Version)
According to some leaked version rumors, I have compiled a list of it's intuitive features.
- Send numerous text and multimedia messages without any bounds or restrictions.
- Unlimited Voice and Video calls to your existing contacts for free.
- Hundreds of new emoticons including animated ones.
- You can host group conversations and chat with a group of your friends simultaneously.
- You can share unlimited photos, videos and music files with your friends, however with a mere file size restriction of 6 MB.

Although, I personally feel that the current features of BBM doesn't have a intrigue factor. Existing messenger apps like Whatsapp, WeChat offer similar functionality with a few extras. Let's not forget the fact that, it is still in the beta development phase. There would be bug fixes and feature additions in future.
What do you personally think? Will BBM able to influence Android users to abandon their existing messenger apps and adopt it?

The livery trade can be cut throat, and you really need to find an edge to make a go of it. Today's Nice Price or Crack Pipe stretched 300D, while not a me-too Town Car, could still go to town. Will its price however, make you tell it to go to hell?
The W123 Mercedes models - limousine or otherwise - have a reputation for going forever. Yesterday's 1970 Ford Torino had a rep for going but a quarter mile - over and over again. That fast Ford may have retired from the strip biz, but it still carried enough of its former glories to also carry home a decent 64% Nice Price win. That of course made it less a Torino and more a Tori-oh-hellz yes.
There have been diesel dragsters, but really the best use for an oil burner is for hauling stuff other than ass. Today's 1983 Grey Market 300D Limousine is a prime example of that. It's also primed to do hauling duty for everything from the Bayerischen Polytechnikum Oberschule prom to a classy date with Nena and her 99 Luftballons.
Presently offered with only 21K on its Euro clock, this blue Benz was briefly put up for grabs a couple of years ago for about the same kind of money and with only 17,000 miles under its Continentals. As noted, the lithe limo is a grey market import, so it benefits not just from its Dachshund-ification, but also from its possession of Euro lamps and an upscale-appearing traditional Mercedes grille. For those of you frightened of your Geico rep, it does have the larger American- spec five mph battering rams in place of the dainty European units. A fresh coat of metallic blue covers the car - the need for which is blamed on an unforgiving Florida Sun - while the car rides on a set of later pizza pan alloys. Around those reside the ubiquitous chrome fender lip snoods which typically are there to hide road rot in the way the judicious application of lipstick covers up a cold sore. In this car's case, the seller claims there is no rust whatsoever, so pucker up.
The extended wheelbase W123 was a factory job, not an aftermarket cut, spread, and fill, and as such it enjoys the W123's rep for durability and longevity. Unfortunately, most were built for taxi service rather than carting Chancellors to clandestine meetings where it's discussed just what should a Greek Urn. This one is just so spartan, featuring fuzzy blue upholstery where you might expect to find MB Tex, as well as plastic on the center console where on American cars there is wood. Perhaps making up for the loss of those accouterments in the back there is a flip-down secretary seat and more leg room than Shaq's collection of hammer pants. Aside from a tear noted in the passenger seat it all looks to be in pretty good condition too.
Another deletion on this W123 is apparent under the hood were a turbo is conspicuous by its absence. Official U.S. 300Ds only came in turbo form, but this one, having made an end run around MB U.S.A., sports the naturally aspirated edition of the OM617 3,005-cc five cylinder which gives the car - get ready for this - 87-bhp. It does also have 125 lb-ft of torque so while you won't be getting anywhere fast, you'll at least be getting there. Plus at just over twenty thousand miles this engine is practically brand new and will go for another ten or twelve million with normal maintenance - or so I've been led to believe. Backing up smokey the bear-with-me is Benz's 722-something, something, something automatic.
Some people won't give the W123 the time of day, while others inexplicably love these cars as though they provide free beer and BJs along with their bank vault-like build quality. And then there's the rest of us who fall somewhere in between. Regardless of your proclivity for Mercedes' vaunted middle child, this long-wheelbase edition is rare in the States and is cooler than a penguin's pecker, making it worthy of our consideration of its price, which is a not so cool $29,900. Alternatively, you could have this one.
That's not to say this non-nightmare-haunting 300 limo isn't worth its asking, but after yesterday's ICBM-caliber Torino at nearly five less, I'm kind of stuck in gear as far as judgement goes. So that means it's up to you to either fete the seller for his pricing acumen, or just chalk up the price to the car living in Florida - home to all things wackadoodle.
You decide!

But when it's a McLaren F1, do you need any reason to film yourself hooning it? I say no.
I don't know anything about this video, except that the person who posted it has other videos that include a screaming Ferrari F40 exhaust and a smoke-filled F50 launch, so he or she is cool in my book.
This latest one treats our eyes and ears to what happens when the McLaren F1's V12 is allowed to get all nasty. It may be 20 years old now, but very few cars do speed better.

While the plot of the hit Hollywood film "Gravity" is fictional, the United States must bolster efforts to address the alarming amount of space junk surrounding Earth, or risk potentially catastrophic collisions in orbit, lawmakers said today (May 9). Such real-life accidents could resemble the horrifying destruction depicted in the movie, they said.
In a hearing before key members of the U.S. House of Representative's Committee on Science, Space and Technology, experts discussed the challenges of managing the growing threat of space junk. Participants included representatives from the U.S. Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) and Federal Communications Commission (FCC), along with experts in space law and space situational awareness.
"Orbital debris, or space junk as it is sometimes called, is not science fiction. It is a growing problem," Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas) said in her opening remarks. "Dealing with the increase in orbital debris will not be easy." [7 Wild Ways to Clean Up Space Junk]
Within the Department of Defense, the Joint Functional Component Command for Space (JFCC-Space) currently tracks 23,000 objects in low-Earth orbit. NASA officials have estimated that roughly 500,000 pieces of space junk larger than a marble circle the planet, and there could be more than 100 million tiny fragments, some as small as flecks of paint, that race around Earth at blistering speeds of 17,500 mph (28,000 km/h).
George Zamka, a former NASA astronaut and the current deputy associate administrator in the Office of Commercial Space Transportation at the FAA recalled his own harrowing experiences with orbital debris during space shuttle missions.
"During my two spaceflights, we flew upside down and backwards to prevent our space shuttle windows from being hit by debris strikes," Zamka said.
Not only have NASA space shuttles and the International Space Station had to dodge space junk over time, but two major events have added considerably to the debris problem in orbit.
In 2007, China intentionally destroyed a defunct satellite as part of an anti-satellite test that created a vast cloud of debris. The 2009 collision between two unmanned spacecraft, one a U.S. communications satellite and the other a dead Russian satellite, created even more debris.
In their testimonies, the witnesses also suggested ways that Congress might approach policies related to space traffic management.
Currently, the Department of Defense oversees surveillance of space as part of its national defense duties, yet with civil agencies, private companies and commercial space travelers all potentially sharing the space environment in the near future, it may be time to re-examine the policing of this increasingly congested orbital region, said Brian Weeden, a technical advisor with the Secure World Foundation, an organization dedicated to the peaceful and sustainable use of outer space.
"While space surveillance began as a national security function, it has evolved into more than national security," Weeden said.
The FAA is the sole federal agency with the authority to grant licenses to commercial space operators. Part of this regulatory process includes working with private companies to ensure their rocket launches will not generate even more debris in orbit, Zamka said.
But, the FAA does not have the authority to regulate commercial activities in space. That job falls to the FCC for communications satellites, and to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for commercial Earth-watching spacecraft.
As such, determining which agency should manage space traffic will likely pose a considerable challenge, Weeden said. In his testimony, he recommended the government assign the task to an agency that already has significant expertise with mitigating space debris, or create a new federal entity to oversee space surveillance.
But to avoid any Hollywood-type disasters in space, the government must act soon, he said.
"The continued expansion in the number of space actors [and the] the type of space activities has created a complex space environment," Weeden said. "It is vitally important for the U.S. government to design an approach to stay abreast of this ongoing change."

Pregnancy, the birth period and the weeks there after can all be very stressful, for the mother father and extended family. It is a time of huge adjustment.
For the mother she is changing her identity and taking on a whole new role and responsibility. As a new family unit, all the relational dynamics change, and this can make fathers feel excluded.
In the case of a preterm birth, the medical focus is on the baby, and the parents often get forgotten. Even full term babies may have severe problems that can make it difficult for parents to cope.
Whatever the situation, Jill can come alongside parents and provide empathetic support, with a deeper understanding of the medical problems on one hand, and the reality of being a parent on the other.

Here's the first look at the final version of the deadly XM25. We learned this morning of the weapon's destructive power, but now we have a photo of the final version and all the details, starting with the key for its destruction power, a built-in fire-control system that can program each of the weapon's 25 millimeter rounds wirelessly, in real time, so soldiers can take down enemies around obstacles:
As you can see in the schematics, the fire-control system uses thermal optic, day-sight, laser range finder, compass and IR light to exactly measure the distance to the target, programming each of the rounds' fuses so it explodes next to the target using a wireless connection. According to the US Army, this gives maximum destruction power and minimum collateral damage, while allowing to save barriers that previously didn't allow to reach the target.
The capability to program the rounds is what allows this weapon to go "around objects." If, for example, there's a sniper hidden behind a trench, the soldier can program each round so it explodes just above the target. The bullets will explode at that exact range, taking down the target thanks to their air bursting power. The XM25 is capable of firing an air-bursting round out to 600 meters with a 360-degree explosive radius, all with extreme precision according to testers. However, each round doesn't have to be lethal: There will be two kind of non-lethal rounds (blunt and airburst) to neutralize enemies without killing them. The new system is also user friendly. Apparently, each type of bullet-high explosive air bursting, armor piercing, door breaching, anti-personnel, non-lethal-is color-coded:
All this technology comes at a price, however. The US Army will have to pay $25,000 for each weapon, plus $25 for each programmable 25mm round. The rounds, however, will be absolutely free of charge for terrorists or anyone at the other side of the battlefield, bad guy or passerby. [Defense Tech]
