We doubled back once, twice, then drove south when we were really headed east. In San Francisco we had a girl who looked like me board a plane to Hawaii. Oh, I thought I was so clever. But you probably already know that I'm not.'
LA 'it' girl Janie Jenkins has it all. The looks, the brains, the connections. The criminal record.
Ten years ago, in a trial that transfixed America, Janie was convicted of murdering her mother. Now that she's been released on a technicality, she's determined to unravel the mystery of her mother's last words - words that send her to a tiny town in the very back of beyond. But with the whole of America's media on her tail, convinced she's literally gotten away with murder, she has to do everything she can to throw her pursuers off the scent.
She knows she really didn't like her mother. Could she have killed her?

text: Johannesburg – The presidential hotline has received 72 299 calls in its first year of service, of which 57 375 were complaints, the department for performance monitoring and evaluation said.The majority of complaints had to do with housing, employment, safety and security, water, electricity, citizenship issues, social grants, education and training, road construction and maintenance and health services.Maloka said the hotline was also being used by whistle blowers and 350 cases of alleged corruption had been received."These relate to alleged social grants fraud, tender fraud in various departments, corruption in municipalities, correctional services, housing departments and others."While a number of people had been helped, getting a quick response from government departments and provinces was still a major problem, Maloka said.Director generals responsible for queriesIn order to resolve this, the president had decided to make directors general responsible for resolving queries and complaints in their departments.The department for performance monitoring and evaluation said it would conduct a first year assessment of the hotline to look at problems, successes and opportunities to improve the service.It was established by President Jacob Zuma last year to "ensure easier access to the presidency and to promote citizen care and a government that was responsive, interactive and effective".The hotline turned one-year-old on Tuesday.Zuma thanked people who had taken the time to call the hotline."We thank those who report anti-corruption allegations as well, they will help us in our campaign to ensure clean governance and to root out corruption in the public service," he was quoted as saying."We will continue working to improve this service as it is clearly a valuable tool in keeping government in touch, and also to train public servants to take members of the public seriously when they raise issues and enquiries."

OK, watched the first video and I don't see the problem with the audio at all. Certain parts would be far to small for some screens and phones for sure. And...it seems we agree...it IS all about religion. But I also have come to a point where I wonder if religion has always been the control element and that ultimately it's all fabricated to keep "us" in line. It's the greatest story ever told...on BOTH sides of the coin. After all, in my mind, my God, my heart and soul is everything. All that is, all that was and all that will ever be. Energy. That thing that is in everything. It can be positive, negative and everything in between. Of course, that could be a lie too. I really don't know. Not one of us do. Not even THEM.

However, as a Gnostic, a Mystic, I could offer alternatives to the positions of the video content which are just as strong, and historically recorded.
Have you considered how the New Testament was constructed...manipulated...by Constantine? Have you considered how the Romans empowered the Catholic church to wipe out...exterminate..believers of Christ whose beliefs did not coincide with theirs? Cathars, Bogomils, Paulinians, et. al.
Mystics seek God - Truth - through Enlightenment, by way of intellect: study and meditation of the knowledge withheld. Gnostic belief is based on personal spiritual experience rather than allegorical, fearful teachings.
Your creative work here, and strong convictions, are appreciated, applauded and respected.edit on 24-9-2011 by capod2t because: typo

But what is the worship of the intellect? Illumination? Enlightenment? It goes against the God of the Bible. Please tell me I'm wrong. You are dead on about the reconstruction of the Bible, but we will never know it's original content. The whole thing, on BOTH/all sides of the God/Satan/intellect coin have been re-fabricated, re-spun, for whomever it seemed fit to do so at the time. There is only one religion really. Isn't there? Everything else is just a control system. Everything else is just manipulation. EVERYTHING else is just a lie. So, what then are we left with? The truth? The 'TRUTH', is a futile path and so is illumination, enlightenment, saint-hood, demon worship, etc., etc., etc. Do I know the truth? Far, far from it. I have no friggen clue. Maybe the truth is that we simply must just be. But in this 'being', just maybe, maybe, we should treat each other with a higher level of respect and kindness. And maybe, just maybe, we should STOP supporting those that DO NOT! Who the HELL are you to tell me how I should do this or that? And who the HELL am I to tell you how I think you should live? What you should believe? I don't know. We have allowed ourselves to get where we are at now. I fear we will reap what we have sown. And I for one, will probably deserve every spark of pain I get in return. At least I admit it.

The song is quite relatable and I feel most women have been there at some point in their lives. You know...that time when you meet that one guy and all is well at first then things go south but you still keep going on and you have this unhealthy dependency/situationship that noone is ready to leave even though you want to and wish you could with every fiber of your being. I always call that guy the "Mr. Big" of your life. For those who know me, I really disliked Mr. Big. I didn't think he was nice to Carrie but no matter how hard she tried she couldn't shake him off. Ultimately, it worked out for them because TV but for the most part it's really not the case.
I often wondered if it was better or worse for Selena that she met her Mr Big young. I am leaning towards better because there is enough time to get over him but at the same time she is still young and figuring herself out that might make it harder to deal. Anyways here's the song. Below is the monologue she gives before the song starts. Let me know what you think.
"When I was on stage and I was thinking of… I know him though, and I know that I know his heart, and I know what he wouldn't do to hurt me.
But I didn't realize that I'm feeling so confident and feeling so great about myself and then it just can be completely shattered by one thing...by something so stupid. But then you make me feel crazy, you make me feel like it's my fault. I was in pain"
[sidebar: Why do guys default to making you feel like it is your fault and you are the crazy one? It's amazing how many similar stories I have heard]

Lindsay Lohan is in a little bit of career limbo right now. She was released from rehab in July and her last film, The Canyons, came out months ago. Right now, she is deciding what her next step will be be.
But one Charlotte-based record label thinks they have the perfect solution for her career. SMH Records announced they offered Lohan a record deal if she wants to restart her music career.
"Lindsay is a tremendous talent and our distribution through Capital (sic)/ Universal Music Group means we have the resources to help Lindsay make her comeback," Jonathan Hay, founding partner of SMH Records, said.
While the offered contract is likely an attempt at publicity for the label, it still brings up a valid point — what is Lindsay Lohan going to do next?
It was previously reported that LiLo will be working with Kate Moss' husband, Jamie Hince, to revive her music career and has posted photos of herself online in a New York recording studio.
The offer isn't a first for Lohan, who has released numerous albums and songs, including 2008's "Bossy." The song became her first single to hit number one on the Hot Dance Club Chart. According to Billboard, her song "Over" also stayed at number one for three weeks in 2005.
Even without music, Lohan is staying plenty busy. She is currently filming her documentary on the Oprah Winfrey Network, and is set to appear in an episode of Eastbound & Down. She also announced she will be writing a new tell-all book about her life. Filmmakers who are willing to put her in their films seem to be becoming rarer, and music may be the best option for her right now.

PETER GRANT last night insisted beating Barcelona has made Celtic one of the most feared teams in Europe.
And he is adamant none of the seven clubs Neil Lennon's outfit can be paired with in Thursday's Champions League last 16 draw will want to come to Glasgow in February. The former Parkhead midfielder said: "The other clubs will look at being drawn with Celtic as a difficult occasion.
"They will be looking at it differently now compared with a few months ago. If you ask Manchester United if they want to come to Celtic Park, with the intensity that goes along with it, they will probably say no.
"There would be more of a fear factor for them because they would be expected to beat Celtic.
"Celtic are in a very good position at this moment in time – they are a team others will want to avoid.
"People will be thinking if Barcelona can get beaten there then so can we.
"Teams will be prepared for Celtic Park but until you are there on a European night you don't realise that it's something different.
"Great credit to Celtic for building that aura around themselves."
Grant reckons the fact Celtic have surpassed all expectations by reaching the knockout stages of the competition has taken the pressure off Lennon's men.
He said: "It's a phenomenal achievement for Celtic because, as Neil said, no one gave them a chance.
"They were in a very tough group but the performances were magnificent.
"People said they were on the back foot for a lot of it but showing that level of concentration is a major part of football these days.
"At Celtic Park the fans will always carry you through, the fans demand a higher concentration level.
"You need the correct draw in the last 16 but nobody will fancy coming to Glasgow.
"When Barcelona came out the hat people thought that was six points gone but it didn't work out that way.
"So with the correct draw anything can happen.
"If Celtic lose, people will say they've done well to get there but for the teams coming here expected to win it's going to be difficult.
"Teams will know what Celtic Park is like, although seeing it from afar is completely different to playing there.
"Celtic will need their top players fit, though, because you need the best available at the highest level.
"They will have to guard against losing any of their best players ahead of the knockout games."

Date: 7/7/12
Messaged to a friend in Dec 17, 2010
Another ignorant tank in Dragon Tomb (Lv. 80-90 instant dungeon), but was better than the previous tank. The II in the subject was to refer to another experience in DT with another tanker.
Well today I got another nub fighter, but he wasn't as bad as the last one. He learned at least. The Dragon Tomb party consisted of 2 fighters, 2 mages and 1 cleric (me). Now we did pretty darn well.
When we got to the room near the boss room, someone swarmed the entire party with mobs. I'm like "wth!?". Someone did die (revived him/her) but I kept everyone alive surprisingly, but I took a huge amount of damage while healing all 4 people -.-; Make that 5 if you include me. It was pure chaos. It died out eventually and everyone was alive. Of course I've been in that situation on some occasion.
When we got to the boss room the mage was about to pull Corny (nickname for Cornelius), but luckily the main tanker told her not to pull him. Anyway, we took out the mobs first and then the main tanker starts tanking. When the main tanker got feared, the aggro automatically went to me. -.-; I was like "Dude (the 2nd tanker), hold the freaking aggro!" I was forced to heal myself and hold aggro (thanks to getting so much damage and spam healing myself) and I also had to heal the tank. Mobs started spawning and I was like "omg -.-;". Talk about a mess. Everyone but the mage died. -_-; I died 2nd or 3rd. The 2nd tanker didn't aggro consistenly while he was busy with Corny, and this was before the main tanker got feared. The main tanker told me in whisper that this was the 2nd tanker's fault (I totally agree; he didn't pick up the aggro when main tanker got feared). Those of us that respawned went back to the room.
We tried again the 2nd time and this time I noticed that the main tanker was talking to the 2nd tank. Main tanker scolded the 2nd tanker and told him how to tank and to know when to use Mock. Of course the main tanker was pretty ticked off. However, on the 2nd go it was much better. The 2nd tank improved his performance and only lost aggro once; however, he got aggro back when I ended up taking aggro. Everything else was smooth sailing and we succeed.

Proven examples (as of the end of LIGHT)
Either Caine or Diana will die in Light.Okay, think about it. Caine's a pretty complex bad guy. Sometimes he's an Evil Overlord, but other times he's an Anti-Villain or even a very dark Anti-Hero. Problem is that, with a character like that, you can't just throw him in jail or whatever. But having him skip off with a happy ending would make him a total Karma Houdini, not to mention that it would be unleashing a dangerous sociopath on society. The only way to solve this would be either (a) Diana dies, reaching the last crumb of empathy he has in him, prompting him to HeelFace Turn, or (b) he dies protecting her. This will allow him to maintain his complexity while not going out-of-character, not to mention making up for his jerkassery in Plague, so the fangirls will be mollified.
- A I Knew It! example; Caine pulls a Redemption Equals Death arc and manages to save the world and proclaim his love for Diana in the process.
In Light, Sam and Caine will be Fire-Forged FriendsThey certainly bonded a lot in FEAR and seeing as it's the last book, it makes sense for everything to be rounded up and resolved. I think it would be a nice, bitter-sweet moment for them to finally, after all that conflict become friends. After all, they're Not So Different
Jossed examples (as of the end of LIGHT )
Drake will do a HeelFace Turn.
- Because one, it would throw everyone off and two, if he figured out that the Gaiaphage has no real interest in keeping him alive he would be PISSED OFF.
- Jossed. He does End up defying Gaia but not to fight the side of good rather than to go off and do his own thing.
Little Pete and Diana's Unborn childWill connect some how. For An unborn child to have a 2 bar power in utero is pretty powerful. When Little Pete Ascends to a Higher Plane of Existenceat the end of Plague, he says how free from his stunted body he feels. However, somehow he needs to be Resurrected for a Job and come back to defeat the Gaiaphage So how can he do it? Going back to the same body is out of the question, but an able body, not fully formed and most likely an accepting spirit? That'll do just fine. Most likely what would happen is they become a duality like Drake and Brittnay the the unborn child/Little Pete has powers to GrandTheftMe or Twins, creating an interesting parallel for Sam and Caine'
- Jossed. At least as of Fear.
In Light, Diana will end up being the one who will have to finish Gaia offAs of Fear, we can see that Diana has a very strong maternal instinct towards her daughter, no matter that she is fused with the gaiaphage. She has even turned against the father of her child and her former allies against the gaiaphage just so that Gaia will be safe. In Light, Sam and the gang will definitely go after Gaia, and they do intend to kill her. Wouldn't it just be such a sad and bitter turn of events if everyone else ended up dead/somehow incapacitated and unable to finish Gaia off for good, leaving Diana to realize that there is no way to kill the gaiaphage without killing the part of the entity that is her beloved daughter.
- Jossed. Though she does manage to break free from Gaia and lives a long, happy life with Sam and Astrid, though it's implied she did love Caine and his death shook her up for a while.
In Light, Astrid will be revealed to be pregnantIt happened before to Caine and Diana, and as far as we know, Sam and Astrid did not use protection of any kind. They might get unlucky as well. And if Sam ends up dying in Light...we might even get a Someone to Remember Him by situation.
- And another WMG stemming from this one: If Astrid did in fact get pregnant during Fear, Little Pete might take over the baby's body. He might very well need a physical body to better fight against the gaiaphage, which now has the advantage of a new body as well, in its Gaia persona. Plus, a child of Sam and Astrid would be genetically related to LP, which could help with the whole "hijacking the baby's body" process.
- Unlike malnourished and assumed-infertile Diana, Astrid has been getting minimal amounts of food and mentions having a cycle (if I remember correctly), so it's highly possible that this is the case.
- It is mentioned at the beginning of Fear that tampons are among her most prized possessions, so yes, she's probably having regular cycles now. So, it could very well happen.
- Jossed.
The gaiaphage are Sam and Caine's fathers.Think about it; they're the two most powerful moofs in the FAYZ (unless you include Petey, and Gaia ), and they are both described as not knowing who their fathers are. The gaiaphage is supposedly the most powerful being in existance (which would explain them both being four bars), and has been able to take the form of humans in the past (I.E Nerezza. ), so it possible the gaiaphage morphed into a human, seduced Connie and got her pregnant.
- Wait a sec, but that would mean as of FEAR... Caine would be his father's own father. And he would be, consequently, his own grandfather. Squick.
- Actually, then the meteor hit, it killed one person, Connie Temple's husband, though she was having an affair so if he's the father is anyone's guess. Earlier, the gaiaphage was noted about discovering human DNA and changing due to that. It seems like there is a connection there.
- Jossed.
- Wait a sec, but that would mean as of FEAR... Caine would be his father's own father. And he would be, consequently, his own grandfather. Squick.
Or, Sam's father is the man who Connie had the affair with, and Caine's father is Connie's husband.It would have a bitter-sweet irony to it, if Sam turned out to be the bastard child but was raised as one of her husbands, and Caine was actually the legitimate child, but was put up for adoption. I also think it would be a great character-building discovery for Caine, and would make him even more bitter about his brother.
- A theory which may be backed up by the fact that the husband (apparently) never suspected anything. Both Connie and Sam are both described as being blue-eyed and fair-haired, unlike the dark-haired, dark-eyed Caine - Caine likely took after his father in looks, and Sam looks like Connie, so the husband never suspected anything.
- Jossed. Neither child was conceived due to the affair and both were legitimate. Acts as a major Tear Jerker.
Like in the above theory, Sam's father was Connie's lover and Caine's father her husband, and in addition to that, Connie's lover is the father of one of the other kids in the FAYZ.So Sam doesn't have just the one (half-)brother he didn't known about. There is also (at least) one half-sibling from his father's side.
- Jossed.
Undetermined (could still possibly be true- or not- as of LIGHT)
Diana was the one who pushed her mother down the stairs.In GONE, Diana says her mother fell down the stairs and was paralysed for the rest of her life. Now, Diana wanted revenge on her father for not buying her a horse, and it makes sense that she'd want her father to get into trouble. She told the police that her father was the one who pushed her and states that she was lying...Perhaps she pushed her mother down the stairs to get him into trouble with the police? She also says, after reccounting her version of the story of her mother's fall; "And that's only half the story." Implying she left out some pretty big details about how her mother was dispatched. It's important to mention that Diana is characterised as very manipulative and has shown in the series to not be above things of this nature.
Or alternatively, Diana made up the story about her mother falling down the stairs up completely.Why would her mother have so many "Creepy boyfriends" if she was paralysed from the neck downwards? It wouldn't of left much opportunities for dating. Plus, Diana is known to be a compulsive liar and manipulator, and she was telling that story to teach Jack that's she dangerous, and it's best not to anger her and do as she says. Perhaps she embellished or downright made up the story to scare him into submission.
- Her mother could of had those "creepy boyfriends" before she fell down the stairs...
- Or they could of been manipulating her for money after her stair fall.
Diana was sexually abused as a child.Diana often makes little references to "leering old men" and her mother's "Creepy boyfriends" who watch her in the shower. This, by itself, implies that she has been defiled or at the very least has been threatened with such a precidament. But it would also explain a lot of her actions as a character. It would explain how willing she is to use her sexxuality to her advantage; perhaps that was the only way she could stay safe pre-FAYZ. It would also explain her self-resentment and feelings of abasement in LIES. Plus, strangely enough, Diana doesn't register anger or revulsion when Caine threatens to rape her. which implies it could of been something she was- tragically- used to as a child.
Diana had a abortion pre-FAYZ."She knew from experience that pregnancy tests didn't work until 10 days after conception."
- Maybe she just had a pregnancy scare and the test turned out to be negative...
Astrid and little Pete aren't actually related. One of them is adopted.Anyone else find it weird that- seeing as Astrid theorized that powers had a strong connection to genes- that Astrid was 0 bars and his little brother apparently breaks the power scale? That's strange.
- Astrid could of been wrong. Perhaps powers has nothing to do with genes.
- ...Except that the series backs up the theory. Sam and Caine are both twin brothers and the only four bars in the whole of Perdido Beach.
- They are described as looking very much alike, though. A bit unlikely that they're not blood related, maybe Pete's powers were due to a mutation in his genes only?
Michael Grant saw this series as a way to fix RemnantsThe similarities between the two series are uncanny; both had very large and very diverse casts, both had kids with superpowers, both had multiple overarching mysteries, both had somewhat of a Kudzu Plot, and both had more Nightmare Fuel than a video of a war. But a lot of problems that Remnants had were fixed here. Scholastic wouldn't let Grant make Tate's lesbianism more explicit; Dekka is another black lesbian with a similar personality. Remnants often strayed into The Chris Carter Effect; here, all the questions are answered. Remnants was written on the very rushed schedule of two books every month; Gone's schedule was much more relaxed. And it really did work; I've read both series, and although I enjoyed Remnants, this was entertaining in the same way while being much more satisfying and higher quality.
- There's even some similarity in the naming schemes. Not only do they both use a lot of strange names and nicknames, but they both use the name Connie for a medical professional (in Remnants, she's only a minor character and she bites it early on in the second book), and they both have a minor character with a name that's a pun on The Artful Dodger (The Artful Roger here, Roger Dodger in Remnants).
Left to his own devices, Little Pete would've destroyed the world.Does this one really need any more explanation?
The gaiaphage was a product of the Ellimist from AnimorphsThe story is that the gaiaphage was some sort of accidental seed thrown across the galaxy to spread life. The Ellimist's goal in his Third Life was to spread life faster than the Crayak could exterminate life. The gaiaphage could be the byproduct of one of these attempts.

people can be positive for Anti-Thyroglobulin ABs and Anti-ThroidPeroxidase ABs, but ones that are a little more specific to Grave's is the "Autoimmune Disease Virus Essay"(ADVA) and the "HIAP Antibodies".

You said you are currently free of any thyroid problems, but then you say you "had" Graves Disease. Graves is an autoimmune disease and once you have it, you have it for life, though it can go into remission. Are you on any medication for Graves Disease, currently? Do you have any current thyroid blood test results that you could post, with references to give us a better of your thyroid status?

No CSF would not cause it. And it is very very rare for an eye in an addult to get larger or smaller. In almost all cases the eye is either being pushed out which makes it look bigger (thyroid Graves Disease" common cause) and the othr eye smaller. Or the upper lid droops Ptosis which makes that eye look smaller and the other larger. In your case it is very unlikely that either eye is changing size.

but rather the hypo condition. Thyroid
can play havoc with every part of the body, mind and emotions. Also exacerbate existing body, mind and emotion conditions. A lot of us are on either antidepressants or anxiety medication.

However, how long that would take is an individual matter.

With only minor policy disagreements with her opponent, House District 4 candidate Stephanie Madsen is hoping Mendenhall Valley Republicans like her style of leadership.
Madsen hopes voters pick her instead of Cathy Muñoz to take on incumbent Democrat Andrea Doll in the fall general election. Doll is unopposed in the Aug. 26 primary.
"The biggest difference is not issue-specific, it is in approaches," Madsen said.
Madsen said she sees herself as having a "statewide lens" through which to see Juneau issues. That comes from having lived in Cordova and Unalaska for years before moving to Juneau 10 years ago.
"I can put myself in the position of the people who live in rural Alaska," she said, helping to build coalitions on issues such as fighting to protect the capital.
Madsen is executive director of the At-Sea Processors Association, a group representing mostly Seattle-based catcher-processors who fish offshore in Alaska. She's also served in a number of fisheries and economic development positions,including as chairwoman of the powerful North Pacific Fishery Management Council.
Combining her experience at negotiating at a state and regional level with her personality, Madsen said she'd be a tenacious representative of Juneau.
"Really, I'm a bulldog," she said. Madsen said she's persistent, speaks her mind and comes at issues "with passion in my voice" that help her accomplish things.
Madsen differs with many Alaska Republicans in supporting abortion rights.
Abortion is "terrible" Madsen said, but "Ultimately I'm a woman and I believe government should stay out of our bedrooms."
She said it was unlikely she would support efforts to amend the state Constitution to allow the Legislature to ban same-sex benefits for public employees.
"The constitution to me is pretty sacrosanct," she said. "It would take a lot for me to change that position."
Madsen said she's skeptical that returning government employees to a defined-benefit retirement program, instead of the 401(k)-style system the Legislature switched new public employees to a few years ago, would be a benefit.
For those in the Public Employees Retirement System, that meant a new Tier IV retirement system that has been heavily criticized by public employee unions, as well as Juneau's legislative delegation.
"I think we had recruitment and retention issues before going to Tier IV," she said.
Changes to retirement and benefits might include a defined-benefit, but she's likely to consider a number of different strategies.
A system designed to be attractive to young people would best meet the state's and Juneau's needs, she said.
"I don't think going back to defined benefit will solve the problems," she said.
Madsen said she'd be a strong advocate for the Kensington Mine, though there is little the Legislature can do now that it is in the federal legal process.
She said she'd be a strong advocate for the Juneau Access Project as well, and would encourage Gov. Sarah Palin to move ahead even without final resolution of pending lawsuits.
"I don't think you can wait until a time when there are no other lawsuits," she said.
Other Southeast legislators have balked at funding the road, fearing that it would take money away from ferries and other regional projects.
"I think the delegation needs to work with other legislators to go to the governor and explain that it is imperative to ensure good access to the capital city," she said. That includes the road, airport improvements and a stable and secure ferry system.
Madsen has criticized the Juneau delegation for its efforts at securing marine park status for several islands near Juneau, at a time when the capital was under pressure and capital creep was continuing.
Madsen said she supports the Legislature's strengthening of ethical rules in recent years, and would follow those rules.
"I'm a strong proponent of disclosure and recusal," she said.
Legislative rules require members to vote even if they have conflicts of interest, however.
"I'd obviously have to follow the rules," she said. "I'd make it clear about my conflict, if there is a conflict."
Madsen's current job with the At-Sea Processors is unlikely to present conflicts, she said, since it deals mostly with federal issues outside state waters. She has not needed to register as a state lobbyist in the last two years she's been with the group, she said.

Claire St John, M.P.H., R.D.N.
Growing is no easy task. Between the ages of 2 and 18, kids will grow five to six times their starting weight and height1. Where does all this growth come from? Food! Meals! Breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Breakfast, long known as the most important meal of the day, comes after a long night of sleep during which energy stores are used up. Skipping breakfast puts kids at a serious disadvantage in the growing game. Being hungry at school is no good for grades, either.
Ninety-three percent of Americans agree that breakfast is the most important of all meals, but a third of our kids still show up at school with no fuel in the tank2.
The reasons for skipping breakfast are easy to understand: getting to school is hectic and cutting out breakfast might save a few minutes. Kids say they aren't hungry, and teenagers who are watching their weight may believe that skipping a meal will help them shed pounds.
But a recent review of 36 studies comparing kids who eat breakfast to those who don't found that eating breakfast has nearly universal benefits on kids' behavior, school performance and overall health. Grades and test scores were higher among breakfast-eaters, attention was more focused and even body weight benefited, with kids who ate breakfast being more likely to have a normal body weight. Those who skipped breakfast were actually more likely to be overweight3.
And let's not forget about the health benefits that go along with the morning meal. Kids and teens who eat breakfast have between 20 and 60 percent higher levels of iron, B vitamins and vitamin D than those who don't4. These vitamins and minerals are crucial for healthy growth and often aren't made up for during lunch and dinner. In fact, breakfast, with its emphasis on whole grains (cereal, oatmeal), dairy (milk, yogurt), healthy proteins (eggs, milk) and healthy carbohydrates (fruit, oatmeal, toast) tends to be a nutrition-packed meal.
And as far as losing weight, skipping breakfast is the exact opposite of what your teen should do. Going without food until lunch can lead to out-sized hunger and more eating throughout the day, a surefire way to gain weight, not lose it5.
Still worried about the extra time breakfast takes? Don't be. The best breakfast is balanced, with a combination of at least three of the five food groups, but keep in mind that anything is better than nothing. One study showed that something as simple as a cup of low-fat milk in the morning boosted grades in girls6.
While the study didn't show an effect in boys, that doesn't mean they don't benefit, too. Milk offers an irreplaceable package of nutrients including protein, carbohydrates, fat and nine essential vitamins and minerals. Pair it with cereal or a piece of fruit, and you've got a pretty great start to the day.
Other quick breakfast ideas are easy to come up with. A banana and a cup of yogurt sprinkled with granola is a top-notch breakfast, but the banana, yogurt or granola alone will still make a difference for your child. String cheese and a piece of fruit can be handed over at the last minute and eaten on the bus.
If your child balks at eating so early in the morning, send him or her with a small carton of milk to sip on and find out if your child's school offers a breakfast program. Whether it's in the kitchen, in the car, on the bus or in the classroom or cafeteria, breakfast fuels learning and healthy kids. Get something in that belly! Find easy and quick breakfast ideas.

MADRID (Reuters) - Spain captain Iker Casillas has said he finds it strange that the format of the draw for the World Cup finals allowed the holders to be placed in the same group as Netherlands, the team they beat in the final in 2010.
Spain, who will play the Dutch in their opening Group B match in Salvador on June 13, were one of eight seeded teams in pot one for Friday's draw, while Netherlands were in pot four along with eight other non-seeded European sides.
The seeds were decided based on the October FIFA rankings and as well as Spain included hosts Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Colombia, Belgium, Switzerland and Uruguay.
Casillas told a news conference organised by his club Real Madrid to discuss the draw he agreed that it was odd that the champions would have to play the nation they beat in the previous final in their first match.
They go on to meet Group B rivals Chile in Rio De Janeiro on June 18 and Australia in Curitiba five days later.
"Sometimes it is hard to understand very well the way draw is done," Casillas said.
"I do not agree with the format," the Real goalkeeper added. "But when all is said and done we are not the ones who decide which teams are better than others."
European champions in 2008 and 2012, Spain are bidding to become the first European nation to win the World Cup in South America and are one of the favourites for the tournament along with the likes of Brazil, Argentina, Germany and Italy.
"The draw was tough," Casillas said.
"It includes the runners-up from last time who had a magnificent qualifying campaign.
"And Chile who have always given us problems the last two or three years when we have played them.
"Having said that, I understand that any player would see Spain as one of the big favourites as what has been achieved in the last few years gives it that right."

If you have purchased your equitable interest in the property back from the trustee in bankruptcy, and he will no longer have any rights to your property whatsoever.
If there is an increase in value of the house, which means that there is some equity in it, then this will belong to you now, and the trustee in bankruptcy will have no claim over it whatsoever.
Therefore, you are entitled to sell the property and do as you wish with it.

Some 53.9 per cent of UK undergraduates starting degree courses in 2009 were from state-funded schools and colleges, a drop of 1.5 percentage points in just 12 months.
At the same time, figures show a rise in the number of students recruited from fee-paying schools.
It was also revealed that the number of sixth-formers applying for places this year has soared by 12 per cent to more than 17,000. Almost six students are now competing for each place.
It comes amid a continuing campaign led by Government to encourage top universities to take students from a wider mix of backgrounds.
Each institution is given targets to increase then number of students from poor backgrounds and state schools – and millions has been spent on outreach programmes and roadshows.
But in a speech last week, Lord Patten, the Oxford chancellor, insisted that the university should be protected from "social engineering".
"I would always strongly resist the suggestion that at a university like Oxford – not that there are many – we should abandon a meritocratic test imaginatively applied in favour of social engineering," he said. "That would help neither the young people involved nore the quality of the institution."
According to figures, the proportion of new students recruited from state schools dropped from 55.4 to 53.9 per cent between 2008 and 2009. Those from independent schools increased from 44.6 to 46.1 per cent over the same period.
However, Oxford suggested that the trend could be reversed in 2010.
It emerged that 56.4 per cent of offers made this year have gone to students from state schools and 43.6 per cent were made to pupils in the independent sector.
The figures are provisional on students achieving the equivalent of three A grades in A-level exams – the basic standard needed to guarantee an Oxford place. In the past, offers have not always translated into places, with those from state schools slightly less likely to achieve the grades.
But Mike Nicholson, Oxford's director of admissions, insisted that Oxford's "extensive outreach work" was paying off.
Applications from state school candidates have increased by 85 per cent over the last ten years, it was disclosed.
"While Oxford is continuing to attract record numbers of excellent applicants from state schools, there is still room for more work to be done," he said.
"The university will continue to engage with potential applicants, their teachers and advisers, and parents to ensure all those with the potential to excel at Oxford apply."

Whether a woman wears makeup only for special occasions or every day, it can pull together a look. Every woman should know how to apply makeup, including lipstick,blush, eyeshadow, and mascara. Applying eyeshadow can be challenging because there are specific techniques depending on the desired look, such as the smoky eye or cat eye. However, with a few simple tools and some practice, women can learn application techniques and choose colours that really enhance their features and create a beautiful appearance. Learning to apply eyeshadow correctly is an art and a skill that a woman can get better at the more she practises and tries out different looks.
Makeup Tools
In order to properly apply eyeshadow, a woman needs the right tools. There are many different makeup brushes available, but some of the basic ones are a flat stiff brush, a pencil brush, and a stiff dome brush.
Although a woman only needs a few basic brushes to start with, she can acquire more over time. Having a variety of tools on hand can ensure that women are ready to apply any style of eyeshadow.
- Flat stiff brush - Spreads eyeshadow over the lid
- Pencil brush - Ideal for creating a smoky effect or putting eyeshadow on the lower lid
- Stiff dome brush - Great for blending colours
Although a woman only needs a few basic brushes to start with, she can acquire more over time. Having a variety of tools on hand can ensure that women are ready to apply any style of eyeshadow.
Applying Eyeshadow
There are many different ways to apply eyeshadow. Some of the various methods include cat's eye, open banana, and snow globe.
Open Banana
To achieve the open banana look, first take an eyeliner pencil or a chiselled brush to make a defined line in the crease of the eye. Being careful not to completely blend out the line, then blend the colour up and out. To finish it off, put a lighter colour on the lower lid.
Snow Globe
In order to create a snow globe look, use shimmer on the middle of the lid and a matte shadow on both sides. Because this gives the illusion of roundness, this style is great for someone with flatter eyes.
Smokey Eye
To achieve that popular smoky look, put the lightest colour on the inside corner of the eyes and near the eyebrows. Next, the medium colour goes across the lid. Then apply the darkest colour across the lid and a fine dark line along the lash line.
Cat Eye
In order to get a cat eye look, first use eyeliner and go beyond the eye line to the outer part of the eye. Next go over the liner with a pencil brush to soften the line. To achieve the best effect, apply the darkest colour to the wing shape to create cat eyes.
Choosing a Colour
Choosing the perfect eyeshadow colour is not always easy. A woman has to take a number of factors into consideration to find the perfect look. Some things to think about when selecting shades are eye colour and skin colour.
Blue Eyes
If a woman has blue eyes, she should look for warmer tones that set off her eyes. Some of the best colours for blue eyes are champagne, pink, purple, and turquoise.
Brown Eyes
Women with brown eyes can wear the widest range of colours. Some of the best colour choices for a woman with brown eyes include neutrals such as grey and brown. A lot of bright colours also look good too, including green, coral, aqua, purple, and orange.
Green Eyes
Women with green eyes should not be stumped when it comes to choosing colours. Some of their top choices should be violet, plum, gold, peach, mauve, and green. A lot of neutrals are also good, including grey, charcoal, tan, beige, and bronze.
Women with fair skin should stay away from dark grey eyeshadows, and dark shades may be too much. Some good colours are cool gold, pink, purple, light green, and light brown. If a woman has darker skin, she should go for coral, pink, ivory, soft green, and bronze. If a woman has cooler dark skin, she can use teal, lilac, and silver.

Paralympic and Olympic track athlete Oscar Pistorious has been charged with murder after he allegedly shot and killed his 30-year-old model girlfriend on Thursday morning. The South African sprinter—who lost both his lower legs due to congenital birth defect and runs with the aid of prosthetics—was arrested in his hometown of Pretoria and is set to appear in court today.
RELATED: No One's Going to Read Mitt Romney's Olympics Emails
That today is Valentine's day puts a macabre sheen on the murder charge, but police are still trying to figure out exactly what happened. There are unconfirmed reports that Reeva Steenkamp, Pistorious's girlfriend, was trying to surprise him and he mistook her for an intruder. However, police told Sky News that this report did not come from them and the AFP is reports that the couple have had domestic disputes in the past:
More on Pistorius: Police say previous 'domestic' incidents reported at star athlete's home— Agence France-Presse (@AFP) February 14, 2013
What we do know is that Steenkamp was shot four times in the head and upper body and that police have launched an investigation as if it was homicide. "The deceased was shot four times and died on the scene. It is believed that she was the girlfriend of the accused," police spokesman Katlego Mogale is quoted as saying in the Sky News report.

When the English rock band Radiohead told fans to pay what they wanted for their new "In Rainbows" album, how many actually paid?
Two out of five people who downloaded the album coughed up money, according to a study released today by comScore Inc., which bases its data on the online behavior of about 2 million people.
ComScore's study showed that in the first 29 days of October, 1.2 million people worldwide visited the "In Rainbows" Web site. About 38 percent of global fans who downloaded the album paid something, while the remaining 62 percent paid nothing. Slightly fewer U.S. fans paid nothing (60 percent) compared with non-U.S. residents (64 percent).
When they did pay, U.S. fans tended to pay far more ($8.05 per download) than their international counterparts ($4.64 per download). Of those who did pay, the biggest chunk (17 percent) paid less than $4, while 12 percent paid between $8 and $12.
I blogged earlier about how Radiohead left it up to fans to pay what they wanted to download "In Rainbows" exclusively from its Web site. The band also sold a discbox – with two CDs and lyric books – for 40 British pounds, or roughly $80 U.S.
Radiohead hasn't yet released its officials sales figures, says The New York Times' Mike Nizza in this blog post.

Hello! Does Hypothyroidism/Levothyroxine delay the testing window for Hep C/HIV. Thank you very much.
Response from Dr. Taylor
Hypothyroidism/Levothyroxine should not delay the testing window for Hep C/HIV.
Persons living with HIV infection may have a delayed development of hep C antibody, but thyroid disease and medication to replace thyroid hormone should not impact the development of HIV and hep C antibodies.

Luciano Moggi gave his predictions for Milan-Juventus. "The Rossoneri run the biggest risk with their many absentees."
The former Juventus director general spoke to RadioCalciomercato about tonight's big Serie A match.
"It was already a fixture in the past that decided important things like a Scudetto or Champions League.
"This time it won't be so decisive because there's a long way to go to the end of the season, but it will be very important in psychological terms. Neither side wants to lose its positive streak."
Milan are without Zlatan Ibrahimovic due to his ban, joining the injured Kevin-Prince Boateng, Maxi Lopez, Alberto Aquilani, Clarence Seedorf, Antonio Cassano, Gennaro Gattuso, Alexander Merkel and Rodney Strasser.
"Ibrahimovic was suspended for Juventus when they earned that famous 1-0 win here in 2005, but the 'luxury reserve' ended up scoring in the shape of David Trezeguet.
"In my view, anyone would want Zlatan on the field at all times, so he is an important loss for Milan. Boateng is another serious blow, so the Rossoneri run the biggest risk with their many absentees and missing those stars will also make the others feel less confident."
Antonio Conte was a midfielder when Moggi was at the helm of Juventus and has now become a very successful Coach who is still unbeaten this season.
"As a player he had already shown signs of potentially being a good Coach. After all, he won two Serie B tournaments as a tactician and always showed he could bring something to the players.
"Besides which, he has the Juventus DNA and knows off by heart what we repeated every day – that you can make up for any lack in quality with mentality.
"Are there any comparisons with my Juventus? My side was a bit better! Don't forget the 2006 World Cup Final looked like a Juve training session with the number of our players out there for Italy and France.
"We had Trezeguet and Adrian Mutu on the bench, so it's impossible to make a comparison, but I have to say this current team is a surprise for everyone."

Virginia Tech To Accept Gator Bowl Bid
Hokies will face Florida State on Jan. 1, 2002
November 26, 2001 BLACKSBURG, Va. - The Virginia Tech athletics department has announced that it will accept a bid to play in the 57th Toyota Gator Bowl. An official bid will be extended on tonight's Hokie Hotline radio show. The Hokies will face Florida State on Jan. 1, 2002 at Alltel Stadium in Jacksonville. Kick-off is set for 12:30 p.m., and the game will be shown on NBC. "We are ecstatic to be going to our seventh New Year's Bowl in nine years," said Virginia Tech head football coach Frank Beamer. "This is certainly a compliment to our program and to our great fan support. We've had a lot of experience with bowls lately and no one treats us better than the great staff at the Gator Bowl." Virginia Tech is 8-2 heading into Saturday's game against No. 1 Miami while the Seminoles are 6-4 heading into their final game with Georgia Tech on Saturday. Tech and FSU last met two years ago in New Orleans, with the Seminoles taking a 46-29 Sugar Bowl victory to claim the national championship. This will mark the 31st meeting between the two schools with the Seminoles holding a 19-10-1 lead. This marks the fourth trip for the Hokies to the Gator Bowl. Tech is 1-2 in the Gator Bowl. Tech fell to Tennessee, 45-23, in the 1994 Gator Bowl, which was played in Gainesville, Fla. The Hokies lost to North Carolina, 42-3, in the Gator Bowl following the 1997 season. Last year, Tech picked up its first win in the Gator Bowl with a 41-20 victory over Clemson. "We're very excited and pleased to be playing in the Gator Bowl," said Virginia Tech quarterback Grant Noel. "We're especially pleased to get to go up against Florida State again. It was a great game last time we played and I think it will be again. I think it's a good matchup and we'll both take a lot of fans. This is one we're really looking forward to." The Virginia Tech Ticket Office will begin taking orders for tickets Tuesday morning. Orders may be placed by stopping by the Cassell Coliseum Ticket Office or by calling 1-800-VATECH4. Tickets for both the general public and Tech students are $40.

A Question of Honor
On September 11, 2012, I lost four members of my family, two of them brothers -- though I would not know of it at the time. So, I did what most people do. I went about my life. It was not until the next day I learned that four Americans had fallen in an heroic but needless battle against overwhelming odds from an evil group of terrorists at our U.S. Embassy in Benghazi, Libya -- and no one came to help them. No helicopter gunships with Marines. No incursion by a stealthy SEAL team. No smart bombs. No armed drones. Nothing. Except, of course, three cold and calculated orders from someone high up in the chain of command to "stand down." On our own soil! You see, not only am I a proud, patriotic American and a loving and protective husband, I'm also a former U.S. Marine -- son of a father who fought with distinction in World War II on the bloody beaches of Normandy, brother to a Marine, and Uncle to both a Marine and active duty Navy SEAL. The two brothers I alluded to, Ty Woods and Glen...(Read Full Post)

There have been three historical approaches for treating cuts and wounds - alcohol wipes, chemical disinfectants and antiseptics, and pharmaceutical chemicals. Some of these conventional drugs such as the non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) will limit inflammation which is a part of the natural wound-healing process, and possibly slow the healing process. The body naturally will react to a wound with some swelling and inflammation that will help protect the wound from further damage. Some inflammation is necessary. Too much is not good and can cause additional pain to the wound.
Seagate Cut & Wound Remedy is a natural homeopathic medicine that stimulates the body's curative responses so that the body helps to heal itself without the use of these pharmaceutical or antiseptic chemicals.
Cut & Wound Remedy contains all-natural edible ingredients. There are no harmful chemicals. However, this product is a topical product and not designed for internal use. Do not take this product internally.

When shooting stills or video for extended periods of time, battery life is often a problem. With the Lanparte portable battery pack, you are now able to extend this battery life of your Sony A7, NEX-5, 5R, 5T, 5TL, a5100, a5000, or a600 by more than four times the standard battery thanks to its enormous 6000mAH (45wH) capacity.
The battery pack is supplied with a FW-50P dummy battery adaptor that fits inside the battery tray of any camera that takes uses NP-FW50 batteries which include the aforementioned Sony cameras.

Animal Cell Biotechnology, Volume 6, Sixth Edition
There has been a dramatic increase in the perception of the value of animal cell biotechnology to the research and manufacturing communities in recent years. This volume seeks to keep the reader up-to-date with this progress. This sixth and final volume in the series concentrates on the biology of animal cells in culture, giving special attention to the relationship between biology and the ability to use such cells productively. As the search continues for greater productivity, there is a need to understand the switches within cells that control expression. Additional abilities to manipulate those switches in a controllable manner are also required. In the last five years, considerable progress has been made in the elucidation of the mechanisms for cell signaling and control of gene expression. The 13 chapters of this volume are devoted to these subjects and to techniques in areas of particular concern in manufacturing circles. The achievements in the field to date are described in this book, which, together with its five companion volumes in the series, will provide a building block for the future development of animal cell biotechnology.
