guatemala: International Field Study in Health
Guatemala 2016
July 31 - August 14, 2016
The Department of Public Health of Southern Connecticut State University provides
graduate and undergraduate students with an opportunity to learn about public health
firsthand in a developing country. This experience expands the world view of individuals
from any discipline, and, therefore, participation is open to all -- including both
graduate and undergraduate students of all majors. The unique learning tools developed
for this six-credit course experience bring students into extensive contact with the
people of Guatemala, and require collaborative efforts of participants.
Dr. William Faraclas, trip Director, has been taking students abroad since 1976, when the department offered its first International Field Study in Health in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Since 1995, the annual field study has been conducted in colorful Guatemala. This year, Southern's International Field Study in Health will be conducted, once again, in the fascinating country of Guatemala. The second poorest nation in the Western hemisphere, Guatemala is rich in human spirit and ruggedly beautiful terrain.
Dr. Deborah Flynn, trip Associate Director, has been accompanying students to Guatemala since 2010.

It's not enough to break the heat
If you're up Friday or Saturday morning before dawn, look for the waning crescent moon low in the east-northeast. Friday look for the bright star Aldebaran, the heart of Taurus the bull, positioned just above the two points of the thin crescent, while farther to the north are Mars and Jupiter just reemerged from behind the glare of the sun. Saturday morning, the dwindling sliver of moon is just a few degrees above the two planets. By now, the three are so close to the horizon that you may need binoculars to spot Jupiter and Mars.
New moon falls on Monday, but you really can't see it from Sunday until Wednesday, when an ever-so-thin crescent appears above the west-northwest horizon briefly after sunset. Fifteen degrees above this waxing moon is Venus, the next-brightest heavenly body after the moon. The moon sets within 30 minutes of the sun, while Venus remains visible another hour before setting from view.
While not as distinct as Venus, Saturn lingers in our night skies, appearing high in the south at sunset, standing above the southwest horizon at midnight, and setting in the east at 1:30am. Look to its east for the bright-white star Spica in the constellation Virgo.
Despite summer's heat, Friday around noon marks Earth's aphelion, its farthest point from the sun for the year. At that moment, we will be 94,508,959 miles from the sun, compared to an average distance of 93 million miles and our nearest, perihelion, on average of 91,445,000 miles. While that might seem like a lot of miles, it adds up to less than a two percent difference — nowhere near enough to affect or cause our seasons here on Earth. That distinction goes to Earth's tilted axis, which causes one side of the planet to face the sun for longer durations, thus significantly warming that part of the globe.

The smooth, rounded shapes of Mami tableware make it perfect for setting up a simply elegant table. Enormous, thanks to the curved and cosy design of the rim, the dish is ideal for presenting and serving first courses, broths or soups. It is made of white porcelain.
The tableware designed by Stefano Giovannoni is characterised by a timeless classicism. The Mami collection offers a rich and complete dish service, ideal for forming an elegant table and able to adapt to different occasions. The soft and rounded lines of the dish set are exalted by white porcelain that, thanks to its play of light, embellishes this service.VIEW THE COMPLETE RANGE
Born in La Spezia in 1954, Stefano as an architect and designer was taught by Buti at Florence University. In the early 80's he founded the King-Kong Production Group along with Guido Venturini. His explosive talent enables him to embody a complex system of 'affective codes' in his projects. This great approach won him the title of 'Super & Popular' designer in the 90's. A technical designer par excellence he has industrial design in his DNA and the capacity to understand public sentiment like no other designer mentioned in this catalogue. His projects began with the "Girotondo" (1989 designed with Guido Venturini) and the first transparent objects in plastic from the "Family Follows Fiction" series (1993). There is a huge number of his items in the "Officina Alessi", "Alessi" and "A di Alessi" catalogues. www.stefanogiovannoni.it

It sounds correct to my BrE ears- it's not the only form you hear, but you do hear it.
Student or Learner
Words in n isolation: Give/gɪv/ You/juː/
In connected speech: Gives you/ gɪvʒ 'juː/occurs at (2:57) = Is this transcription correct?
Give you/gɪv 'juː/ occurs at (2:40) = Does the stressed syllable go to the second syllable?
More: Rich Question Poor Question
It sounds correct to my BrE ears- it's not the only form you hear, but you do hear it.
Sounded perfectly normal to me too. I would say that it's actually quite rare to hear "gives ... you" where the "s" sounds like a "z". It's the transition from the "v" to the "s" that makes us lazy about it, I think. You can make the low-sounding "zsh" (or like the French "j") sound with your front teeth still on your bottom lip where they have been to make the "v" sound. It's more difficult to jump from a full "v" to the "z" sound at the end of "gives", so we run them together and we get "giv-jou" (French "j" sound).
Remember - if you don't use correct capitalisation, punctuation and spacing, anything you write will be incorrect.

The Lawrence Marshall Dealerships sold not-so-Big Three and Hyundai products in a 40-acre complex in southeast Texas. Known for selling a lot of Ford and Chevy trucks, it was sadly clobbered by the Carpocalypse.
Whereas the recently closed Bill Heard Chevrolet in Houston was the typical sketchy dealership owned by an out-of-towner, the locally-founded Lawrence Marshall had a much better reputation for customer service and philanthropy. First opened as a small lot by Lawrence Marshall in the 1960s, the small dealership grew into a massive complex.
Anyone who lives in southeast Texas is familiar with the commercials featuring former Houston Oilers defensive lineman and company CEO, Ray Childress, offering to "clobber big city prices" during nearly every commercial break. Lately, some people have noticed Childress was less-than-enthusiastic during recent commercials. The spirited "clobber" was gone.
With approximately 240 employees and a large business disappearing overnight, we've got a bad feeling about what this means for the local economy. The commercial to the left is of the sadder Childress, a shadow of the man he once was.

Russian Journalists Explore Innovation and the Media on U.S. Press Tour
By Shana Kieran on April 19, 2017
On a balmy mid-March evening, 11 Russian journalists clustered around a table in one of Austin's time-honored barbeque joints, a platter piled high with brisket and a trough of mashed potatoes between them.
The group had gathered for a traditional southern meal on the final evening of a ten-day press tour sponsored by the U.S. Embassy in Moscow and the State Department's Foreign Press Center. Such tours are designed to showcase all aspects of media as an industry and profession in the United States and the ways in which technology is transforming journalism, its practice, and consumption. The participants agreed they were simultaneously exhausted and energized at the conclusion of a packed itinerary that included stops in Washington D.C.; New York City; and Austin, Texas where they met with a wide range of policymakers, academics, media professionals, and had the unique opportunity to participate in the South by Southwest (SXSW) interactive media festival.
Reflecting on the experience, one technology reporter from an online Russian daily said that briefings with digital media companies and online publications such as Vox, Slate Magazine, and Buzzfeed, facilitated networking with media industry peers and created linkages that she intends to maintain into the future. She added that the chance to meet leading innovators in technology and media from around the world at the SXSW festival was "definitely once in a lifetime."
Another participant, an arts and entertainment reporter from St. Petersburg, said that meetings with academics were among the most illuminating of the program. The group spent a full afternoon with professors at American University's School for Communications in Washington, D.C. and then Columbia University's School of Journalism during the New York leg of their trip. The visits featured wide-ranging discussions of journalistic integrity, the rise of citizen journalism, best practices in digital journalism, and the future of mass media. Several participants also recalled a spirited discussion of media freedom at the Committee to Protect Journalists as a highlight of the tour.
As the group scraped their plates clean and considered dessert, a cultural reporter from the far east of Russia offered her view, using the assistance of an interpreter.
"This was my very first time to the United States and I honestly had some apprehensions based on things I'd heard in news and saw on television," she said. "For me, this was a very rich professional exchange and I learned a lot as a member of the media, but I also learned a lot about the American people. Some things surprised me and some things didn't, but I know now that this is a very diverse place where everyone has their own unique view and way of life."
She paused to order the apple cobbler, then added, "Most of all, I loved listening to everyday Americans tell their stories. We are journalists – telling stories is at the heart of what we do."

Market risk
Market risk can be defined as the risk of losses in on and off-balance sheet positions arising from adverse movements in market prices. From a regulatory perspective, market risk stems from all the positions included in banks' trading book as well as from commodity and foreign exchange risk positions in the whole balance sheet. Traditionally, trading book portfolios consisted of liquid positions easy to trade or hedge. However, developments in banks' portfolios have led to an increase in the presence of credit risk and illiquid positions not suited to the original market capital framework. To address these flaws, material changes in the market risk framework (generally known as 'Basel 2.5') have been introduced by the CRD III. The EBA, through the publication of its guidelines intend to foster convergence in the implementation of some of these new capital requirements, namely the stressed value at risk (stressed VaR) and the incremental risk charge (IRC) introduced to adequately capture credit risk. The EBA will also draft some draft regulatory standards (RTS) to clarify and better articulate some requirements provided for in the new CRDIV/CRR text.

FullSpeedGirl necesitaba un nuevo diseño de camiseta y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 242 diseños de 66 diseñadores freelance.
FullSpeed.com is a destination for motorsports fans - we're building out a platform that will promote motorsports professionals online, while giving fans an opportunity to interact with these pros via a social network.
Check out the site at http://www.fullspeed.com.
We are targeting the fans - people who love motorsports, either by participating via car racing at their local track or motocross riding on the weekends. These people are passionate about speed, cars, bikes and, oh yes, SPEED. They love the smell of exhaust fumes, sitting in the stands cheering on their favorite racer, or working on their bike/car so it's that-much-faster.
Our users span a demographic from young to older, they live in every state, from California to North Carolina, with little money to lots - what they share is the passion for racing.
We would like to create an edgy T-Shirt design that incorporates our logo (attached) and tag line: "Life @ FullSpeed". We will create an entire campaign around this concept, including T-Shirts, Video, Advertising, etc. We want it to create buzz when people are seen wearing it.
Please remember that FullSpeed is about ALL motorsports, so including a car or a bike alone will leave out part of our audience. It will likely need to be more abstract so it's not specifically car or bike-centric.
We've searched for designs that appeal to our vision, but haven't seen anything really unique or new, so I'm appealing to 99Designs to come up with something compelling.
We will keep it simple - mens white basic T-s to start, followed by a women's line, so it needs to appeal to both.
Thanks for taking the time to enter and submit your design for consideration!

And interestingly, it was the impetus behind the creation of Bitcoin and the blockchain technology behind it. Keene Little wasn't ready to risk his money yet but he was very curious, so he began charting Bitcoin's technical patterns.

Crayon Pop's 'Uh-ee' Banned for Shiny Japanese Word
Crayon Pop's new track may be a tribute to traditional South Korean "trot" music, but it's not Korean enough for the nation's notoriously fussy publicly funded television network.
On Thursday, KBS confirmed it had banned the song, "Uh-ee," from broadcast because of the use of a Japanese word in the lyric. The word, "ppikka," means "shiny" in Japanese.

HP Notebook PCs - Using System Recovery, Factory Reset and Minimized Image Recovery Options
The HP Recovery Manager application, installed on the hard drive of HP Notebook PCs, can be used to recover the computer to its original operating condition, and can be used to create a set of personalized Recovery discs. In the event of a system failure, you may use either the Recovery Manager or the Recovery discs to re-install your computer's original operating system and software.
Depending on when the computer was released, the Recovery Manager installed on it was developed by either SoftThink, CyberLink, or by HP. The screens vary slightly, and there might be up to three very different types of recovery options available for your model.
System Recovery
The System Recovery option does the following:
Reformats the system drive. The system drive is the hard drive where the current operating is installed (such as the C: drive).
Re-installs the original operating system on the system drive.
Re-installs all original hardware drivers.
Re-installs all original trial software.
Does not remove or disrupt any customer-created partitions.
In some cases, the System Recovery process might require more hard drive space than the system drive actually has. If the system drive is part of a partitioned hard drive, one or more partitions can be de-partitioned to give the System Recovery process the space it requires. Otherwise, customer-created partitions will remain intact.
Factory Reset
The Factory Reset option does the following:
Removes all partitions.
Reformats all hard drives.
Re-installs the original operating system on the default system drive (usually the C: drive).
Re-installs all original hardware drivers.
Re-installs all original trial software.
This recovery option returns all of the notebook's software to the condition it was in at the time of purchase. Any programs installed after purchase and any files you created will be removed entirely.
Minimized Image Recovery
Minimized Image Recovery does the following:
Re-installs the original operating system.
Re-installs all original hardware drivers.
Re-installs HP essential software (i.e., HP Support Assistant, HP Recovery Manager, etc.).
Does not install trial applications or trial games.
If there are customer-created partitions on the hard drive, the HP Recovery Manager prompts you for permission to remove them or leave them intact.
Different ways to launch Recovery Manager
Depending on how you launch the Recovery Manager, different recovery options are available. The recovery process can take from 30 minutes to two hours or more to complete. The computer will appear to stop working for long periods of time and will then restart several times. Do not interrupt the process, and do not attempt to use the computer until you are prompted to logon with a specific user name and password.
To launch the HP Recovery Manager, do any of the following:
warning:Because there are several recovery options available, some of which automatically delete files and programs, HP recommends that, before you select any recovery option, you back up all important files. Once the recovery process begins deleting files there is no way to pause or stop the process.
Click Start, type recovery in the search field, and then select HP Recovery Manager to run recovery from the D drive.
Turn on the power and press F11 to run recovery without starting Windows (on some models esc key and then F11 key ).
Insert the customer-created Recovery disc in disc drive and turn the power on to boot from the DVD disc.
Insert replacement the Recovery disc purchased from HP, and turn the power on to boot from the DVD disc.
Tasks to do after performing a Recovery
After you perform any of the recovery options, you will need to:
Run Windows Update, multiple times if necessary, to bring your operating system up-to-date. This ensures you have the latest security patches and Windows Defender updates to protect your computer.
Update your anti-virus software virus definitions, to further protect your computer. If you selected the Minimized Image Recovery option, you will need to re-install the anti-virus software from the HP Recovery Manager and then update its virus definitions.
Download and run the HP Support Assistant to install the latest HP BIOS and updated drivers. Or you can search for updates on the HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads support page.

Marlins-Twins postponed; they'll play two on Tuesday
MINNEAPOLIS -- Chalk up another first for Marlins rookie Jose Fernandez. At age 20, the hard-throwing right-hander has already made the leap from Class A to the big leagues. Now, the Cuban-born and Tampa, Fla.-raised Fernandez is getting his first experience of snow.
"My mom is like, 'Send me pictures!'" Fernandez said.
MINNEAPOLIS -- Chalk up another first for Marlins rookie Jose Fernandez. At age 20, the hard-throwing right-hander has already made the leap from Class A to the big leagues. Now, the Cuban-born and Tampa, Fla.-raised Fernandez is getting his first experience of snow.
"My mom is like, 'Send me pictures!'" Fernandez said.
Fernandez and the rest of his teammates will have plenty of time to take in the wintry conditions, because Miami's game against Minnesota on Monday at Target Field was postponed due to blustery conditions.
The Marlins' two-game series at Target Field will be made up in a day-night doubleheader on Tuesday. The start times are 2:10 p.m. ET and 8:10 p.m. FS Florida will only televise the afternoon game.
Actually, the hope is the field will be ready by 2:10 p.m. If there is substantial snowfall, the game would be pushed back until the field is cleared.
"It all depends how long it [takes to get] that stuff off the field," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "They're going to try to start it on time, but who knows?"
Ricky Nolasco, who was initially set to start on Monday, will start Game 1 on Tuesday. Fernandez gets the starting nod for the night game.
The threat of heavy snow caused a quick call, as the game was cancelled early in the afternoon. Temperatures also were expected to dip to 34 degrees, which would have matched the second-coldest game-time temperature in club history.
"I've heard anywhere from three to eight inches of snow," Redmond said.
The Marlins have an off-day Wednesday before opening up a series against the Cubs at Marlins Park on Thursday. The rotation for the Cubs' series will feature Kevin Slowey (Thursday), Wade LeBlanc (Friday), Alex Sanabia (Saturday) and Nolasco in the series finale on Sunday.
Miami outfielder Juan Pierre was on his way to Target Field at about noon when he was informed the game was postponed.
"It must be going to come down pretty good to call it early," Pierre said.
The 35-year-old broke in with Colorado, and he remembers snow impacting games early in his career. And in 2011 when Pierre was with the White Sox, he dealt with snow in Cleveland. White Sox players that day, led by Mark Buehrle, built a snowman on the field.
"I didn't know how to build one," Pierre said. "Buehrle showed me how to do it, how you had to roll it. I didn't know how it got that big."
It's been unseasonably cold all April, dating back to the Opening Day at Washington and early in the month in New York. All-Star right fielder Giancarlo Stanton wore a ski mask a couple of days ago at Cincinnati.
"I'll be wearing that, it looks like, all day tomorrow," Stanton said. "This is by far the coldest [month] I've ever played in. New York was the coldest because of the wind. Cincinnati was cold, but I prepared more. It still wasn't as cold as New York. Tomorrow, I will be well prepared."
Fernandez doesn't own a winter coat, but he planned on walking to the mall near the team hotel on Monday to purchase one. He'll be making his fourth big league start and seeks his first win. Fernandez is coming off a rough 11-1 loss at Cincinnati, on a night he gave up five runs, with four coming in the fourth inning.
"This game humbles you real fast," Fernandez said. "It's incredible. I'm learning a lot."
After that outing against the Reds, Fernandez received some encouragement from veterans Pierre, Placido Polanco and Miguel Olivo.
"They told me, 'Papi, welcome to the big leagues. It's going to happen many times. It's how you react to it. How you get ready for five days after it,'" Fernandez said. "If this would have happened to me last year, today I would have still been like going crazy about it. Now, it was just a bad day. I talked to some people, and the next day I was there getting ready to do what I do to prepare for the next game. I'm pretty happy about that."

Designing Successful Newsletters
Newsletters have become a great way for businesses to spread information, "tell their story," solidify customer loyalty, and increase sales.
Here are a few tips to keep in mind while designing your company newsletter:
- Content Is Important
Successful newsletters provide interesting content for their readers, in addition to product information from the newsletter provider.
- Color Draws the Eye
Use multiple colors of ink to draw attention to important articles and information. Two-color newsletters are very effective, and full-color newsletters are gaining popularity.
- Pull Quotes Create Interest
Pull quotes create interest and increase the likelihood that an article will be read. These quotes are taken directly from the article and focus on interesting, key points.
- Good Design Provides More Room for Copy
A well-planned and designed newsletter can contain 20% to 30% more content than a casually designed newsletter. Seeking advice from professional graphic artists is often profitable. They can help design an effective template for your future use.
- Good Back Page Design Is Important
An estimated 15% of readers start reading at the back page of a newsletter and work their way to the front page.

In Pain?
Want More Energy?
Stronger Immunity?
Research shows that LeafSource™ can help with:
Arthritic pain
Joint problems
Inflammatory conditions
Bone loss (osteoporosis)
Immune enhancement
Fatigue & low energy
Nutrient absorption
Increased alkalinity
Fast, Patented, Proven Results
Every 100 million years or so, nature reveals a therapeutic agent so incredible that medical researchers—and the people who try it—are astounded by its health-enhancing benefits.
LeafSource™ is such a product. Comprised of the fossilized remains of ancient, organic plant and animal materials, LeafSource™ is nature's true life source. Simply put, LeafSource™ combines the earth's bounty and modern science in one of the most unique and remarkable multipurpose health products available today.
WHAT IS LeafSource™?
LeafSource™ mineral products are derived from a 100% natural, organic, prehistoric sea-bed deposit dated at about 120 million years old. Agricultural civilizations have long relied on sea beds as vital sources of fertilizer that enrich soils and provide the nutrients in our foods. We now know that this intricate matrix of naturally occurring organic acids and alkalizing minerals can have a direct beneficial effect on the body—ultimately helping the body run more efficiently.
Organic Chelating Complex
LeafSource™ contains a spectrum of health-boosting, natural organic acids, including humic and fulvic acids, which act as "organic chelators" to take your nutritional status to the next level. They provide optimum availability of nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Taking LeafSource™ as part of your daily diet enhances the absorption and usage of vital nutrients from the foods and supplements you consume. Essentially, LeafSource™ supercharges them.
LeafSource™ contains a rich supply of carbon. Carbon is highly available as a nutritional building block for your body's biological processes that promote a healthy immune system and aid in the digestive process. These are essential elements for extraordinary health.
Trace Minerals
LeafSource™ contains a wide variety of naturally occurring trace minerals that are vital to a sound and balanced nutritional program. Since these trace minerals are in their natural form, they are easily absorbed by your body.
WHAT MAKES LeafSource™ UNIQUE?
Most sea-deposit-based supplements have the challenge of irregular sourcing. But LeafSource™ comes from one specific source, a privately owned site of extremely rich mineral sea content in New Mexico, USA. No other supplement can claim to have the same unique properties instilled by nature over millions of years.
LeafSource™ is 100% certified organic and is truly proprietary in every sense of the word.
LeafSource™ improves the performance of your daily nutrition and vitamin programs. It increases the availability and uptake of vital nutritional elements in your normal digestive processes. This, in turn, creates the following benefits:
Supports Joint Health
LeafSource™ contains natural elements that have proven to support joint health, reducing daily joint aches and discomforts caused by illness and normal athletic activity.
Increases Daily Energy
LeafSource™ effectively converts normal dietary elements into available components that are vital for increased daily energy and stamina.
Improves Skin, Hair and Nails
LeafSource™ aids in the conversion of vitamin B-complexes and other nutrients that are vital to healthy skin, hair and nails.
Strengthens Immune System
LeafSource™ aids in the development of a stronger immune system. University research studies have proven that LeafSource™ is excellent in building a healthy blood system, which is vital to overall good health.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND LeafSource™
Much research on the health benefits of organic acids is generally considered "public domain" and thus applicable to any and all products—products not necessarily supported by unique studies. LeafSource™, on the other hand, is scientifically validated through more than 10 years of university and clinical research at the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mercer University.
Controlled experiments on LeafSource™ have revealed that it's potently anti-inflammatory. In one study, it increased the anti-inflammatory effects of common non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs by over 100 percent after three hours. What's more, LeafSource™ is a great anti-inflammatory on its own, and has been shown to reduce inflammation within a few days.
LeafSource™ strongly influences your immune system. The immune system, a highly complex network, has numerous triggers that help protect your body from various invaders implicated in everything from colds and flu to HIV and cancer.
With the use of LeafSource™, T-lymphocytes, one of the foot solders of the immune system, increased in number by 17% and 43% after 30 and 60 days, respectively. Plus, lymphocyte responsiveness increased 14% during this time. LeafSource™ increased not only the production of lymphocytes, but also their ability to respond to foreign substances, including viruses.
In studies, LeafSource™ increased white blood cell count by 21% and 30% after 30 and 60 days, respectively. Neutrophils, a form of while blood cell required to fight infections in the body, increased by 57% and 123% during the same period.
"I have had arthritis in my legs and feet for many years and have had great difficulty walking. Soon after taking LeafSource™, I noticed the pain had subsided enough that I could get my old life back. This product is simply unbelievable!"
Gail N, Vancouver, BC
"I have lots of energy and stamina. And I have not caught a cold since taking LeafSource™ although I have been around several people with colds and the flu. LeafSource™ has helped me be stronger and less vulnerable."
Ms. LL, Tucson, AZ
"My energy and stamina have increased, which is especially noticeable when I take my evening walks."
Mr. JML, Santa Fe, NM
"After five days of taking LeafSource™, the stiffness in my body from a horse-related accident was gone! At the same time, this product gave me lots of energy and kept my mental state calm. It's a big help that LeafSource™ works so quickly."
Mrs. TL, Floyd, NM
"I play tennis four to five times a week. At my age (49), after a difficult workout or match, I would be sore for three to four days. With LeafSource™, my recovery time is much shorter. I've also noticed that my fingernails no longer have ridges in them and are noticeably stronger and less likely to split and break."
Mrs. AB, Dallas, TX
"Over this winter, I can confidently say that LeafSource™ is a major component of assuring that I have what I need to manage various illnesses."
Mrs. LHH, Rock Island, IL
"LeafSource™ provides me with a sense of alertness without that jittery feeling. It's a great way of getting over the afternoon slump."
Mr. DM, Dallas, TX
"I no longer have hive-like outbreaks. And I've noticed that the ridges on my nails that were prominent for several years are gone."
Ms. VK, Centerville, OH
"I'm a mother of two very energetic boys, and during my years as a sports enthusiast (soccer and football), I began to develop terrible knee pain, to the point that I could not play sports the way I was once able to. One week after starting LeafSource™, the pain in my knees disappeared; it literally went away. I'm back to my old (or new) self again thanks to this amazing product."
Kathleen B, Vancouver, BC
"For several years, I've suffered with circulation problems in my legs. If I take LeafSource™, I have no pain."
Ms. PM, Albuquerque, NM

If you dare to wake up at 3 a.m. to watch the royal wedding on Friday, consider yourself a traitor. So argues Mark Oppenheimer at Slate, who encourages Americans to boycott the nuptials. This isn't Mark's usual religion column, but maybe you'll enjoy the mini history lesson.
While I appreciate the informative way Oppenheimer makes his argument, I hope he won't judge me if I openly admit that I plan to catch it on YouTube or some other website Friday evening.
(Cough: quick, shameless, self-promotion and then we can move on.) I argued in the Indianapolis Star today that the wedding represents a convergence of The King's Speech and The Social Network as we see a mesh of tradition and tech. There's something about the wedding that many long for: stability, honor, continuity and tradition, at least the romantic version of the monarchy.
So I won't get up at 3 a.m., but I'm interested.
Yesterday, we discussed how the royal wedding could overshadow Pope John Paul II's beatification because let's be honest--media outlets have only so many reporters, photographers, air time, etc. But in the meantime, if we accept the fact that people will be searching for stories about it, we might as well learn something about how things work across the sea.
Along those lines (assuming we're going to make the best out of the wedding coverage), this piece from Religion News Service shed some pretty interesting light on the church-state affairs in England.
As the Dean of Westminster, the Very Rev. John Hall, and Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams prepare to conduct and solemnize the wedding of the century, both Christians and prominent and powerful nonbelievers are raising their voices and demanding the disestablishment the Church of England that has dominated religious life here for 400 years.
It's a little premature to call the event "the wedding of the century," but I like the angle on how the wedding raises issues about the Church of England's role in state affairs.
In a powerful measure of Britain's unique marriage of church and state, the parliament's House of Lords contains 26 Lords Spiritual, all of them unelected men who also serve as bishops in the Church of England.
The assembled royals and bishops inside Westminster Abbey will reflect the close ties on both sides. Williams was appointed by Elizabeth in 2003--her fifth appointment to Canterbury in nearly 60 years--on the recommendation of former Prime Minister Tony Blair.
He, in turn, or his successor will one day crown the next monarch.
Mollie already looked at Kate Middleton's recent confirmation, a further reflection of how the church impacts royalty.
Current Prime Minister David Cameron has expressed support "in principle" for scrapping the 1701 Law of Settlement restricting access to the throne by non-Catholics--a move Anglican leaders strongly oppose.
The 1701 law also forbids heirs to the throne from marrying Catholics, on the idea that their royal offspring who are raised as Catholics would be forced to choose between loyalty to Rome and loyalty to the Church of England.
...For his part, William has expressed little concern about or commitment to either the Church of England or Christianity. Those close to the couple say they are, like their peers, quietly indifferent about religion.
For all the speculation about the upcoming wedding, I've seen little coverage of the prince and his bride-to-be's religious beliefs, so this part of the story was interesting. All of this led me to some coverage in the Telegraph about how the Church of England blocked a move to scrap a the law that prevents royal family members from marrying Roman Catholics. Apparently Nick Clegg, the Deputy Prime Minister, began work towards the repeal but it was quietly shelved.
Church leaders expressed concern that if a future heir to the throne married a Roman Catholic, their children would be required by canon law to be brought up in that faith.
This would result in the constitutionally problematic situation whereby the Supreme Governor of the Church of England was a Roman Catholic, and so ultimately answerable to a separate sovereign leader, the Pope, and the Vatican.
There is no similar prohibition on the Royal family marrying members of other faiths such as Islam and Judaism, or those who are openly agnostic or atheist.
It's difficult for Americans to imagine a church body dictating whether their leaders may marry outside of a particular faith tradition, but all of this is falls in a broader historical context. The law was passed to prevent the descendants of the Catholic James II from ascending the throne. As irrelevant as the monarchy might seem to Americans, stories like these help us understand how religion still plays an underlying role.

Steel Ingot Locations
Need to find all the Steel Ingots in The Pitt DLC? Well this is the place to find them!
Steel Ingot Locations[edit]
Welcome to our little appendix for all one-hundred Steel Ingot locations. Most of the Steel Ingots are found in the Steelyard (others are found in the Abandoned Area and Supply Plant as well), and all are found in the middle chapter of The Pitt DLC -- Unsafe Working Conditions. Each location is covered in-depth in our walkthrough for that section of the DLC, but if you want a quick rundown of the locations of each Steel Ingot, look no further than below. Enjoy!
2x Steel Ingots (2 Total)[edit]
As soon as you enter the Steelyard, explore the ground near the corpse of the dead slave packing assault rifle heat. Your first two Steel Ingots can be found there.
2x Steel Ingots (4 Total)[edit]
Climb atop the rusted and destroyed bus (or bus-like vehicle) near the entrance into the Steelyard. You can mount it via a wooden plank leading to the vehicle's roof. Head to the front end of the vehicle and then carefully jump over to the dumpster on your left. This dumpster contains two Steel Ingots.
2x Steel Ingots (6 Total)[edit]
Jump from the above-mentioned dumpster to the adjacent dumpster. You'll find two more Ingots here.
3x Steel Ingots (9 Total)[edit]
From the above-mentioned second dumpster, jump to a smaller dumpster closer to the ground adjacent to your location. You'll see a slave corpse nearby. There are three Steel Ingots within.
2x Steel Ingots (11 Total)[edit]
Climb atop the many derailed train cars ahead and to the right of the entrance to the Steelyard. The center gray train car, surrounded by red train cars, contains two Steel Ingots in clear view.
2x Steel Ingots (13 Total)[edit]
At the far end of the derailed train cars, you'll find a slave corpse with two Steel Ingots sitting near it. It's to the right of the sewer entrance into the Pitt Underground.
3x Steel Ingots (16 Total)[edit]
Three Steel Ingots can be found in a large dumpster to the right of the derailed train cars (if you're facing the dead end their facing). To reach it, carefully climb up to and cross one of the metal steel girders gapping the area, and jump into the dumpster once on the other side.
2x Steel Ingots (18 Total)[edit]
To find two more Steel Ingots, climb the stairs you used to gain access to the train car rooftops. Instead of jumping back down, work your way to the left side of a broken chain link fence. You'll see the stray Ingots on your left.
2x Steel Ingots (20 Total)[edit]
The next two Steel Ingots can be found nearby. From the dead end location of the last two Ingots, head leftward and keep an eye on your right as you pass the stairs on your left. You'll find a small trailer on your right, which contains two Steel Ingots on a shelf also lined with, amongst other valuables, two boxes full of Stimpaks.
3x Steel Ingots (23 Total)[edit]
To find three more Steel Ingots, head leftward while facing the trailer location of the previous two Ingots. Move forward and leftward. You'll begin to be affected by mild radiation. At the end of this irradiated tunnel, you'll find a dead Pitt Raider along with these three Ingots.
3x Steel Ingots (26 Total)[edit]
From the location of the previous three Steel Ingots, move leftward into an even more irradiated, Trog-covered sector. There are radioactive barrels and debris galore here. If you search the center area of this irradiated locale, you'll find three more Steel Ingots that you should quickly grab before backtracking out of harm's way.
2x Steel Ingots (28 Total)[edit]
Adjacent to the large series of blown out buildings on the left side of this highly irradiated location, you'll be able to use one of two staircases to reach said buildings' rooftops. Adjacent to one section of the roof, near one of the staircase, is a large dumpster. Jump from the roof to this dumpster to claim two Steel Ingots.
2x Steel Ingots (30 Total)[edit]
Don't jump out of the dumpster where you found the last two Ingots. Instead, face the barbed-wired fence along the wall next to the dumpster (where the pipes are). Carefully jump over the fence, being careful not to get snagged. Then, run rightward down this completely isolated pathway. You'll find a dead Pitt Slave down there with two Steel Ingots next to him.
2x Steel Ingots (32 Total)[edit]
Remember where the covered drainage ditch was, where we found Ingots #s 21, 22 and 23? Well, instead of going towards that location, begin walking towards it and then head left through a gate. Once through the gate, go forward and head left again. Two Steel Ingots can be found there near a medicine box containing even more goods.
2x Steel Ingots (34 Total)[edit]
There's a downed crossbeam spanning from one building to another, from the rooftops near the location where the last two Ingots were found. As you use this downed beam to cross to an adjacent series of buildings' rooftops, you can find two Steel Ingots clear-as-day.
2x Steel Ingots (36 Total)[edit]
The building that the steel beam spanned to is the key to the next two Ingots. Cross over to these rooftops (or simply use a nearby staircase to get to the roof), and then look for a corner that leads down onto a tall, brown-colored supply shelf. On the top of this shelf lie two Steel Ingots.
2x Steel Ingots (38 Total)[edit]
The next two Ingots are easy-as-anything to find. From the top of the shelf where the last two Ingots were found, simply drop down to ground level, turn around and face the shelf. Voila! Two more Steel Ingots.
2x Steel Ingots (40 Total)[edit]
From the shelf where the previous four Ingots were found, begin to head forward into yet-unexplored reaches of this locale. Keep moving forward until you can't go forward anymore, and are forced to turn right or left. Turn right down an isolated pathway, and then turn right again. You'll find a dead Pitt Slave here. Two Steel Ingots are nearby.
4x Steel Ingots (44 Total)[edit]
Instead of going right at the aforementioned juncture, opt to go left instead. Then, go left again, exploring this area for a small coal cart that contains multiple items, including four more Steel Ingots to add to your inventory.
2x Steel Ingots (46 Total)[edit]
As you backtrack away from the previous area, you'll pass by the multi-tiered brown shelf where four Ingots were found in two groups of two. Explore underneath the staircase leading up to the roof on the very same building the shelf is leaning against, and you'll find two well-hidden Steel Ingots.
2x Steel Ingots (48 Total)[edit]
Climb the stairs near the well-lit area with the sealed door, as described in the walkthrough. As soon as you begin climbing these stairs, you'll run into the deceased corpse of a man named Wild Bill. Next to him are two Steel Ingots.
2x Steel Ingots (50 Total)[edit]
Proceed up the staircase away from Wild Bill. You'll run into a dwelling used by other Wildmen that you've already fought and killed in this area. Two Steel Ingots they were guarding are near their defunct refrigerator.
2x Steel Ingots (52 Total)[edit]
Move away from the settlement you found at the top of the stairs once occupied by Wildmen. Continue along the only viable pathway from there, which will ultimately lead you to some catwalks parallel to some gigantic, rusting pipes. You'll see a pipe shoot off into the distance. Jump onto this pipe and carefully walk over to the end of it. Acquire two Steel Ingots there.
4x Steel Ingots (56 Total)[edit]
Continue to climb the stairs along the large building near the pipe where the previous Ingots were found. This staircase will ultimately lead up to the roof of this large structure. Move leftward and keep an eye out for a non-descript gap on your right. When you see it, go through it and explore the area ahead and to your right. Four Ingots can be acquired there.
12x Steel Ingots (68 Total)[edit]
This is quite the catch. Simply climb way, way, way up the staircase to the very, very top of the structure where the previous Ingots were found. This path is littered with well-armed Wildmen, and is a dark, dreary and lengthy run on its own even without enemies, but it's well worth it. At the very, tippy-top of the steel mill, you'll find these twelve Ingots. That's right -- twelve.
7x Steel Ingots (75 Total)[edit]
The best time by far to grab these Ingots is on your way down the smoke stacks after grabbing the twelve discussed above. You're looking for an open-air chute leading downward. Way, way downward. You'll see it rather easily as you climb down the smoke stack. Run down this lengthy chute, and you'll see the seven Ingots in question on a wooden platform on your left.
4x Steel Ingots (79 Total)[edit]
These are possibly the most obscurely-hidden group of Ingots in the entire DLC quest. To get them, you need to drop off of the rooftop all the way to the right of the staircase that initially leads upwards towards the smoke stacks. The roof below you're targeting already has a dead body on it, so that should give you a good indication of where you look. Drop down to that roof (you'll likely break your legs when you do), and then drop down to another isolated pathway on your right. Move forward until you can't go anymore, and then look to your right. Next to an Auto Axe and a dead corpse are these four Ingots.
3x Steel Ingots (82 Total)[edit]
Head to the Supply Plant off of the initial area of the Steelyard where the derailed train cars are located. Once inside, move forward until a couple of plant workers run past you with a half-dozen Trogs in pursuit. Deal with their pursuers first, and then explore the room you're in as you head left. The three Steel Ingots are sitting on the floor.
8x Steel Ingots (90 Total)[edit]
After going down the Trog-filled mining tunnel, you'll find a shelf full of medicine. The path from there splits left or right. If you choose the right path, you'll ultimately come across these eight Steel Ingots at the dead end you encounter, but be ready to fight some well-armed Wildmen for them.
6x Steel Ingots (96 Total)[edit]
These six Steel Ingots are found down the left tunnel (as opposed to the right tunnel where you found the previous eight). When you take that tunnel, you'll find a locked closet on your right. Pick open the lock carefully, and then grab the Steel Ingots you seek from within.
1x Steel Ingots (97 Total)[edit]
The only time you ever find a lone Steel Ingot all by its lonesome is in the last room of the Supply Plant, the one with the beds and the last vestiges of Trogs in the area. Next to the bed is a nightstand. Examine the nightstand, and this Ingot can be found.
3x Steel Ingots (100 Total)[edit]
The final three Steel Ingots are found in the most unlikely of places. The Abandoned Area off of the Steelyard that acts as a conduit between the Steelyard and The Mills is the key. When you approach the door in the Abandoned Area that leads back to the Mills, look to your right. You'll see a gap in the fence that wasn't there earlier. Head through said gap and look to your left -- you'll find these final three Ingots in a coal cart.

Around The League will profile the top 25 players we see Making the Leap in 2014.
No. 1: Cordarrelle Patterson
Cordarrelle Patterson is just the electric wideout and complement to A.P. the Minnesota Vikings envisioned. Can he realize his prediction of becoming a top-five playmaker in his second year?
No. 2: Kenny Vaccaro
Kenny Vaccaro exceeded expectations in helping to hold the Saints' secondary together in his rookie season. Can he become one of the league's top safeties in just his second season?
No. 3: Andre Ellington
Andre Ellington teased us with his big-play ability as a rookie. Now the keys to the Arizona Cardinals' backfield are in his hands, and the dynamic runner is poised to leave tire tracks all over the field.
No. 4: Le'Veon Bell
Le'Veon Bell worked his way into a key role in the Pittsburgh Steelers' offense. A new season brings new promise for the running back, who should make the leap to Pro Bowl production in Year 2.
No. 5: Jamie Collins
Jamie Collins is one of the most athletic players on the Patriots. The 3-4 linebacker always seemed to pop up on tape last season, and we expect him to "make the leap" in 2014.
No. 6: Johnathan Cyprien
Lacking star power on defense, the Jacksonville Jaguars desperately need safety Johnathan Cyprien to "make the leap" in 2014. Chris Wesseling analyzes his chances of pulling off that feat.
No. 7: Montee Ball
The Denver Broncos installed Montee Ball as their starting running back for the 2014 season. The Around The League team believes the second-year player will seize the opportunity and ... run with it.
No. 8: Toby Gerhart
The Jaguars have talked up Toby Gerhart all offseason as Maurice Jones-Drew's heir apparent and Jacksonville's bell-cow come September. Will he live up to expectations?
No. 9: Ladarius Green
There aren't many humans like Ladarius Green. The young San Diego Chargers tight end is a 240-pound pure vertical threat, but is he ready to take over for veteran Antonio Gates?
No. 10: Jabaal Sheard
Browns coach Mike Pettine is slating the unheralded Jabaal Sheard for the same role that Mario Williams played last season in Buffalo. Is the young Browns edge rusher primed for a breakout?
No. 11: Datone Jones, Mike Daniels
Packers defensive ends Datone Jones and Mike Daniels are poised to make the leap in 2014. Will Green Bay's defense be the most improved unit in the NFL? Chris Wesseling explores.
No. 12: Jordan Reed
Redskins tight end Jordan Reed set franchise records in his rookie year. Can the former third-round pick make the leap to a Pro Bowl star in his second season? Dan Hanzus weighs in.
No. 13: Everson Griffen
Unlike the other candidates on the Making the Leap countdown, Everson Griffen just signed a monster deal. Kevin Patra tells you why the Minnesota Vikings are so high on the young defensive end.
No. 14: DeAndre Hopkins
DeAndre Hopkins of the Texans finished second among rookie wide receivers in a roller-coaster 2013 season. Chris Wesseling examines his breakout potential in Bill O'Brien's offense.
No. 15: Zach Ertz
Dipped into the NFL's most creative offense, Philadelphia tight end Zach Ertz showed the type of growth down the stretch to suggest a leap in Year 2.
No. 16: Desmond Trufant
The Atlanta Falcons' defensive backfield was porous in 2013, but there's hope on the horizon. Second-year cornerback Desmond Trufant is primed for a breakout year.
No. 17: Marvin Jones
Marvin Jones posted good stats in 2013. With more snaps coming his way in 2014, the acrobatic Cincinnati Bengals wideout is just too good to miss out on a stellar season.
No. 18: Gus Bradley and David Caldwell
The Jacksonville Jaguars have long served as a punching bag in the AFC South. Can coach Gus Bradley and general manager David Caldwell turn this ship around?
No. 19: Khiry Robinson
New Orleans Saints running back Khiry Robinson was famously compared to Hall of Famer Curtis Martin during last season's playoffs. Can we expect a breakout year in 2014?
No. 20: Markus Wheaton
The Pittsburgh Steelers could use another playmaker to go with Antonio Brown. Markus Wheaton has all the tools to be that guy.
No. 21: Justin Hunter
Can the Titans' Justin Hunter take the next step to become an elite wide receiver? Gregg Rosenthal and Chris Wesseling discuss his chances.
No. 22: Ziggy Ansah
Ziggy Ansah has the talent to wreak havoc along the defensive line, but can he put it together to become a difference-making pass rusher? Kevin Patra profiles the second-year Detroit Lion.
No. 23: Christine Michael
Can the Seahawks' second-year running back turn his freakish potential into production in 2014?
No. 24: Xavier Rhodes
Xavier Rhodes ended his rookie season as the best player on a beleaguered Vikings secondary. Can the second-year cornerback develop into a Pro Bowl player?
No. 25: Josh McCown
Around The League kicks off its 2014 "Making the Leap" series with a look at Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Josh McCown. Can a 35-year-old quarterback have a breakout season?

I hope you are ready for some super pretty premium nail polish goodness from Burberry!
The Burberry Nail Polish Iconic Colour Collection is launching on the 2nd of October 2013 and includes 17 shades, inspired by a classic Buberry colours (deep reds, nude, that trench beige etc) and also includes a base and top coat in one (just up my lazy girl street!).
The nail polish has a high gloss finish and 2 coats dries in under 2 minutes, and the formula contains pro vitamin B5 and moisturising and strengthening qualities. Phew!
The packaging is gorgeous, obviously, and very heavy weight and luxurious. I have two colours here to review for you.
The packaging of these Burberry Polishes is lovely – the lid pulls off (which is quite heavy weight and has the Burberry print), to reveal the cap and brush. The brush is quite chunky, but easy to use which means it only takes a few sweeps to cover the whole nail. It's a squarish shape and easy to use to get into the edges neatly too.
I found the texture of these polishes quite thick but also really easy to apply and smooth. I thought even 1 coat applied well, and it didn't take too long to dry (I wouldn't say it was properly dry in 2 minutes but I could touch each nail after 2 minutes per coat).
I love these two colours that I have tried. They're not that common but wearable – I like how creamy they look on the nail.
Pale Yellow almost has a slightly green tinge to it – it reminded me of a flower, but it doesn't quite look like green or indeed a yellow (sometimes yellow can make my nails just looks stained!).
Dusty Mauve is really gorgeous and reminds me of a taupe-mushroom-violet – just up my street. I have been wearing this colour all week (it started to chip on day 4) and it's noticeable without looking too dark or dull.
Here are the colours in the core range:
Nude Beige No.100
Nude Pink No.101
English Rose No.102
Ash Rose No.103
Stone No.104
Mink No.105
Dark Trench No.106
Steel Grey No.200
Graphite No.201
Storm Grey No.203
Khaki No.204
Poppy Black No.299
Military Red No.300
Poppy Red No.301
Lacquer Red No.302
Oxblood No.303
Base & Top Coat No.000
Burberry also have a pre-release for the Spring/Summer 2014 colours in a box set with limited availability:
The shades are limited and are (Including the two I have swatched):
Rose Pink No.400
Dusky Mauve No.405
Pale Grape No.410
Pale Yellow No.415
Sage Green No.420
Mink No.105
This box set is sold here for £90 until the 30th of September 2013, and then will not be available again until the new season…so if you are thinking about Christmas presents…be quick! These box sets ship in 3 weeks so really, it's ideal as a gift for a polish lover. The colours are limited too and are fashionable with a classic edge. I want that green!
Individual polishes are £15 each.
What do you think of Burberry Nail Polish? Would you splash out?

It will not increase California's gross state product over the next 12 months. Nor will it create 100,000 – or 10,000 or even as few as 1,000 – new jobs by this time next year.
Yet, of all the federal stimulus grants and awards California has received to date, none will contribute more to the state's long-term economic growth than the $194 million it received yesterday to chug ahead with what state officials hope will be the nation's first full blown high speed rail system.
The welcome gift from Washington, which the state will match dollar-for-dollar, will give the California High Speed Rail Authority the funds it needs to complete an environmental review of the first stretch of the 800-mile network.
The biggest public works project in California history will cost $45 billion, with the first year of operation in 2020. The High Speed Rail Authority estimates the rail system's construction will generate 160,000 jobs, with some 450,000 permanent jobs created once the system is fully built out.
As envisioned, California's modern high speed trains will race along at 220 miles per hour, connecting the Golden State's major metropolitan areas, from Sacramento to San Francisco to Los Angeles to San Diego.
What that means is that a commute from, say, San Diego to Los Angeles, which current takes 2 hours and 45 minutes, will take only 1 hour and 11 minutes. A trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento, which currently takes 7 hours and 40 minutes, will take only 2 hours and 11 minutes.
The promise of those kind of high speed intercity commutes will do much to get California residents off the state's all-too-congested freeways, out of its all-too-crowded airports and onto the railway. Indeed, the state High Speed Rail Authority projects that ridership will grow from 13.5 million riders in 2020 to 41 million by 2035.
The growth in high speed rail ridership also will yield environmental dividends in a state that aims to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and curb its energy consumption.
That's because California's electrically-propelled., high speed trains will use one-sixth the energy of cars in traffic and one fourth the energy of airplanes, according to the state High Speed Rail Authority. They also will reduce CO2 emissions by 12.4 billion pounds per year versus highway and air travel.
California is the world's eighth largest economy. It should have a world class transportation network, including a modern high speed rail system.

In the spring of 2009, the Harry Ransom Center received a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to catalog the Morris L. Ernst papers. The collection will be closed to researchers until the project is completed in the fall of 2011. During that time, a team of one full-time project archivist and two part-time assistant archivists will arrange, describe, and preserve the Ernst papers. They will also produce a standard finding aid (or guide to the collection), which will be available online.
During the cataloging process, the archivists aim to achieve two goals: access and preservation. The Ernst papers, despite being uncataloged, have been used frequently since their acquisition. Several lists and indexes to the papers exist, but they are incomplete, unreliable, and difficult to navigate. This project will replace those various guides with a standardized, online finding aid, which will be searchable and generally much easier to access and use.
The other goal is to make the physical material last as long as possible, so that the information contained in the papers will remain a part of the cultural record. To this end, project staff will re-house the papers in acid-free boxes and folders. At-risk items—those that have been damaged by water, age, or other environmental factors—will be treated by the Center's Conservation Department. The Ransom Center has a state-of-the-art lab where materials can be stabilized for long-term preservation.
When the cataloging project is complete, the Ernst papers will be housed with the Center's other collections in secure temperature- and humidity-controlled stacks, ensuring the papers' availability to researchers.
