Subject: Guide to Make Autoblog
Wed Jul 04, 2012 5:14 pm
I thought I will share my 2 cents with Autoblogs and what I been doing with them. And how I am flipping these for big cash.
I see people saying Autoblogs will get you banned or this and that, well these IGNORANT PEOPLE have no idea and have never tried Autoblogs. I made well over $40k last 3 months with these Autoblogs not only that I got these Autoblogs to 20k-80k Alexa Ranking. Tons of search traffic and referral traffic.
Before I start this guide I wanna tell you something, AUTOBLOGS WORK, if you know what to do and how to do it, they bring at least $50 a month just from ads. And you will never get banned in search engines. Setup takes time but then its automated.
Lets get started ---
Domain and Hosting
Domain name really doesn't matter but keep it niche related. Go for highly searched terms.
Hosting -

is the best hosting tbh, they never suspend you even with huge spike of traffic. HostGator and Bluehost are suckers they suspend your account with with small spike in traffic. So go with these guys.
Tools Needed
Wordpress ---> Wordpress.org
WP-o-matic --> If you know PHP and can edit some lines this Plugin is a nightmare to webmaster and Godlike to us AutoBloggers. Even with default settings this plugin is so powerful that basically if I were the owner I would have never released it even if I did I would have sold it on monthly subscription. But anyways this plugin scraps and posts everything in a well formatted manner.
DDSitemapGen -->

WP Super Cache
First of all setup a Wordpress blog if you have Fantastico, then it takes few clicks and it installs Wordpress for you.
Once the installation is done, do the following changes --
Activate all the Plugins before you do anything.
1. Add a ping list -
[You must be

2. Change Link structure to - %postname%
3. Put up an ok template do not use default and do not use some warez Premium Theme keep it simple.
4. Go to Category and change the "uncategorized" to General.
5. Go to links and delete all the links from LinkRoll.
6. Go to pages and make a new Page and name it SiteMap. Instead of visual mode go to HTML mode and copy paste this code
<!-- ddsitemapgen -->
and then save the page, this basically creates a sitemap if you read the plugin page it explains everything.
Save settings. You are done
If you wanna keep the spam away and make the blog bit better, I would say just enable Akismet it requires API key which you can get from Wordpress.com or if you are a lazy guy then just go get SPAM FREE plugin for wordpress. This keeps your blog clean of spammers. Do not install any other junk plugin. Keep the site light so it loads faster.
Time to find blogs. It is really a good idea if you go for a niche that gets millions of searches per day. Reason being you will find blogs with fresh content daily. Micro niches won't make you a penny. Health, design, photography, entertainment, news they do good.
Anyways, to get the blogs rolling with content we need RSS feed and it is pain to find them but here is a nice trick to find good blogs in your niche and get their rss feed.
First of all, go to Stumbleupon and create an account, you dont have to be active there just get an account and get their toolbar we really dont about being active. Next once you have approved your account go to your settings and then My Preferences and select the topic that relates to your niche or anything that is close to your niche. Save your preferences. If you do not know how to do it refer to this image..
[You must be

Now lets find the blogs that we can leech the RSS feed from. We can do this by clicking the StumbleThru featured in StumbleUpon Toolbar and selecting Blogspot Blogs. Now because you have chosen your topic and then selected StumbleThru Blogspot blogs, StumbleUpon will only show you blogs related to your topic and all you have to do is click Stumble and Stumble and Stumble to go through series of blogs each time you get to a blog just click their RSS feed button and copy paste the RSS feed in a notepad make a list of 100-200 blogs.
Here is a picture on how to do this if you do not know.
[You must be

As you can see in the image, I have mentioned Flickr as well because a blog with articles look lame so having pictures once in a while blends it well and google cannot scan the image anyways so you get unique content and image search traffic.
Make a list of feeds you want to leech, make sure you find a lot of blogs that broadcast FULL Article in their RSS feed, some only broadcast a summary while others full, so blend them together. Have lots of Full Feeds and some Summary ones.
Once you have made a good list, it is time to put feeds inside Wp-0-matic and let it leech for you. Few things to note here, if you don't do you will have to waste hours going through each thing.
1. Add 2 feeds at time do not add tons of feeds at one time because there is a bug in WP-0-Matic, most of the time it crashes if you are leeching from a lot of feeds, sometimes it does not crash but it posts the same thing 9-10 times. That is the downfall of WP-0-Matic that once in a while if you put lots of feeds it even if you tell it to leech only 10 articles it will leech the 10 articles but will make 9 posts or more of each post. So in essence you will have 90 articles instead of 10, so make sure you don't go more than 2 feeds. Just in case the bug happens you can delete the duplicate posts.
2. Let Wp-0-Matic leech the posts with pictures, it always looks great.
Once you have added the feeds you will have thousands of pages created in a fly. I usually add 300 a week. So you can spread your feeds across a week to make it look bit natural.
Once this is done, it is time to get Ads integrated inside your Wordpress Blog, I will be honest I have not tried this with Adsense and the sole reason being is that I make really good money with my whitehat sites that I really did not want to risk it. But I have not heard any bans to be honest. But if you are not making anything with Adsense it is better to use it for this trick instead of just being a scary cat. Else do what I do, go to Adbrite and sign up for an account and publish their ads on your blog. Although I must say Abdrite is the SHITTEST paying company they pay you less than pennies lol. But I will show you a trick to make cash out of them big time. It is really important that you place the ads correctly. I always put 2x 250x250 ads on top of each post just after the post title. So it looks like ...
Title ----
Ads Ads
Your article....
Screenshot to show it...
[You must be

I think they are 250x250 but I am not sure. I am telling you this because this is what gets clicks. Beside that put a Leaderboard (728 x 90) on top of your blog. So you have Header then Leaderboard (728 x 90) and then Post Title then 2x Ads and then your article.
This gets really good clicks from my testings.
Your blog is all set. Now do few things.
1. Submit your Sitemap to Google
2. Submit your blog to --
[You must be

3. Submit your RSS feed to RssMillion -
[You must be
logged in
to see this link.]
You can find blogs related to your topic here as well and then leech their RSS feed.
Thats it, if you wanna go few steps which I do go, then..
4. Submit your site to Digg.com
5. Submit your site to IndianPad.com
6. Submit your site to Mixx.com
That is enough.
Now lets move on how to get massive traffic. About 1k a day sort of traffic or may be more. Paid and Free Version.
Paid Version..
If you are lazy then go with the paid method. Just go to Etology and sign up for an advertiser account. Then go to Buy Ads and then Network Ads and then scroll down to ads that are cheapest there are those with 1 cent a visitor, I always go with these, you can buy 1000 clicks for $10 and they convert like sick. NOTE - You will 100% get banned from Adsense if you try to do this with them, they will ban you, sad but TRUE, that is due to the fact that back in 07 me and friend made cash with this system and then I taught the trick to a DP guy and this idiot shared the method in some warez and soon Google started banning people. So do not try to cheat Adsense they will ban you.
Once you have bought the Ads they will call you to approve you are real and then your ads will run. If you have setup the Ads as mentioned you will get HIGH ROCKET Clicks on ads and will make back your invested $10 right away.
Note that, in order to buy traffic from etology you will need a credit card.
Now lets move to my favorite method. FREE TRAFFIC. This method is SIMPLE so SIMPLE and it works 99.9%.
1. Go to Reddit.com and get yourself an account. Close your window clean your cache.
2. Go to
[You must be
logged in
to see this link.]
and get one of the proxies and set it up, just so your IP is different and then go to Reddit.com and create one more account. Thats it you are done.
Now I will teach you how to get 1k uniques a day from Reddit now if you overdo it, you will get banned they have never banned my URLS may be because I submit from different accounts but as long as you get 1k a day who cares. In worst case they will ban you from submitting to a category.
Now we will find interesting stuff that we can post on our blog and promote it on Reddit. My favorite and one of the best trick is to use Stumble to find images, all you have to do is in your StumbleUpon Toolbar click the the button that says Stumble Images and it will show you tons of nice interesting pics, anytime you hit a nice one, download the image on your pc and then post it back on your blog with a new title.
Once that is done go to Reddit.com with your 1st account your main IP and then click Submit new link and then in title field put a title as long as possible, the longer the better, if you put short title you will not get any traffic. So for example --
Bad title - beautiful nature image
HOT title - I know you have seen a lot of nature images but I guarantee nobody around Reddit have ever seen anything like this before, because good come by hard..
Now you can actually test it, the long title will get you at least 1k-2k visitors while the short one will get down voted right away lol. Anyways once you have done the title chose the PICS category and post it. Then quickly clean your cache and change your ip to another proxy ip and go to reddit.com and vote up your story. The best way to vote up your story is to always go to this url ---
[You must be
logged in
to see this link.]
So if your category was WTF you would change the pics to WTF so on and so fourth. If you go to that url after you have submitted your link, you will see yours somewhere there if you do not see it, just down vote 3-4 stories that you see currently and then click REFRESH and it will be there if its not there do another 2 downvote and refresh and you will see your submission vote it up. And then vote down next 10 stories on the list. Go grab a coffee while Reddit sends you about 1k uniques lol.
Now lets move on to the 2nd method, this will basically take down your server. Anytime you find really interesting post or image. Go to *****.org and post it up. If your server can handle this site will send you a traffic which will force your host to send you an email and warn you about cpu usage.
That is it boyz n girlz, its late night here I am not sure if I missed something but I will go through this later once again and see if I can add more stuff...
Some autoblogs we have taken to a whole new level ---

This one got featured on Gizmodo I was ROFLMAO
And few others that are in high 50k Alexa which i planned to put some unique content so I can sell it. This works and not only it brings cash but you can later flip these blogs. If you plan to flip these blogs try to create new sitepoint accounts or get a friend to sell for you, I always get friends to sell it for me as nobody buys from me when I sell it with my real name. Call it jealousy or something else I think people get sort of curious after they see that you have sold tons of sites in your profile. So sell one go with another account and keep it up. I have one sitepoint account but I get my friends to list for me as I find it most suitable and easy for me.
Hope some of you will take action and do this, because this just works, if you do not make cash, I will REFUND YOU LOL. Just take action and this method is worth more than these $2000 - $5000 so called Guru stuff.

Many years ago The Economist did a series of schools briefings which aimed to explain banking and finance in everyday terms. When I started my job at the Economist in 2000 my father photocopied the set and gave it to me to read. (I was a science writer and knew little about economics.) Over the years I'd nagged at various people internally "why can't we do a schools briefing again?". Finally, they have.
In a special section explaining the new briefing (when on earth did we start explaining things to our readers?), an author helpfully writes:
"This series of schools briefs revives The Economist's occasional primers on topical subjects. The first series (published in 1975, on "Managing the British Economy") was intended to help British economics students prepare for school leaving exams, though we hoped it would also be of wider use. Subsequent subjects ranged widely, from American government to science. We last published a schools brief in 1999. It was on finance, and concluded: "Some of the new financial technologies are, in effect, efforts to bottle up considerable uncertainties. If they work, the world economy will be more stable. If not, an economic disaster might ensue."
These briefings, as well as a new briefing on Brazil written by my colleague Helen Joyce, are well worth downloading for a quiet read at the end of the day. I recommend Pocket for this.

Foods that cause constipation include dairy products, frozen dinners, fried foods, bananas and cookies. It is uncommon for a particular food to cause constipation, as this condition occurs mainly from eating foods that are low in fiber, according to Wyatt Myers for Everyday Health.
Dairy products such as ice cream and cheese cause constipation, as they are low in fiber and high in fat. It is important to eat fruit sherbets instead of products made from milk to prevent constipation, particularly for children. Fried foods such as French fries slow the movement of contents along the alimentary canal, causing constipation. Other foods such as potato chips are high in fat, causing delayed digestion, resulting in constipation, explains Myers.
Unripened, green bananas are also a cause of constipation. However, ripe bananas are high in soluble fiber, which is essential for pushing food along the digestive tract, eliminating constipation. According to registered dietitian Tammy Lakatos, sources of refined carbohydrates such as cookies, cakes and pastries are constipating foods as they are low in fluid, low in fiber and high in fat. Additionally, frozen dinners are high in sodium, tying up water and preventing waste products from moving through the body. It is important to eat vegetables, whole grains and fruits to avoid digestive problems, notes Myers.

10 Colleges With The Hottest Girls
Being on the list of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls may not help increase a college's enrollment, but it also wouldn't hurt. Guys want to see the best looking girls in college, and girls want to be considered part of the hottest female student body in the country. With the list of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls, everyone wins.
- Arizona State University. Maybe it is the desert sun or maybe it is because there is no humidity to create bad hair days, but Arizona State University definitely belongs on the list of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls. If you need some proof just watch the female cheerleaders at any Arizona State football or basketball game.
- University of Virginia. The University of Virginia may not be filled with just down-home southern Belles, but it definitely attracts some of the best looking female students in the country.
- University of Southern California. There was just no way that USC would not find its way on to the list of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls. California seems to attract the lovely ladies, and many of them pursue higher education at USC.
- Boston College. Boston is known as a big sports town, and Boston College sports add to that atmosphere in Bean Town. But Boston is also known for its nightlife, and that may be the reason why so many gorgeous girls take up residency on the campus of Boston College.
- Florida State University. It is a wonder that students at Florida State University get any studying done between the nationally ranked football team and some of the hottest girls in the country on campus. Florida State University has a long-standing reputation of being one of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls in the country.
- Miami University. You may not expect one of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls to be in Ohio, but just one visit to the campus of Miami University in Oxford, Ohio will convince you that this school belongs on the list.
- UCLA. It seems like every girl on the UCLA campus is trying to either be a model or an actress. With motivation like that, it is no wonder that UCLA is one of the 10 colleges with the hottest girls in the country.
- Wake Forest University. If you think about it then you realize it is not difficult to imagine a school from North Carolina making this list. North Carolina girls have that accent and that smile that make them some of the most beautiful girls in the entire country.
- Auburn University. Auburn must have a hottest girl department because there seems to be more hot girls per capita on this campus than any other college in the country. With an active, and massive, sorority row it is no wonder that Auburn is a university with some of the hottest girls in the country.
- Indiana University. Not every school on the list of 10 colleges with the hottest girls is known as a party school. Indiana University is a virtuous school with some incredibly hot girls on campus.

WASHINGTON, June 3 -
Mr. Speaker, the taxman has gone wild. The IRS spent $50 million on boondoggle conferences. At one conference, the agency declined the cheaper government group rate and instead opted for perks including stays at swanky presidential suites, free drinks, and high-dollar tickets to the L.A. Angels baseball game. Now, isn't that lovely?
The IRS spent thousands on touchy-feely speakers, including a $17,000 lecture about ``leadership through art.'' More like the art of wasting money.
The taxacrats-turned film-makers spent $50,000 for videos, including spoofs of ``Star Trek,'' ``Gilligan's Island,'' and line dancing to ``Cupid Shuffle.'' Cupid Shuffle? Are you kidding me?
Mr. Speaker, this is corrupt, contemptible behavior. Ironically, instead of tracking our tax dollars, the Internal Revenue Squanderers waste tax dollars.
The head of the IRS says the expenses were inappropriate. Well, no kidding.
When the revenuers find inappropriate behavior by taxpayers, the taxpayers pay more taxes with interest. The IRS should return the $50 million with interest to the Treasury, and it's time it audited the taxman.
And that's just the way it is.

The Power Of Prayer
Contributed by Melvin Newland on Sep 5, 2012 (message contributor)
Summary: Some people think that the only reason to pray is to cause a change in our own thinking. But the Bible teaches that prayer can make a difference in what God does, and that prayer can also have an effect on our circumstances. (PowerPoint available - #147
(The PowerPoints used with this message are available at no charge. Just email me at firstname.lastname@example.com and request #147.)
A. The apostle Paul is praying. He is praying for the Christians in Ephesus, & he is also praying for us, for all those down through the ages who come to know Jesus as Savior & Lord. Listen as I read his prayer, found in Ephesians 3:14-21.
"For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom His whole family in heaven & on earth derives its name. I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.
"And I pray that you, being rooted & established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide & long & high & deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge – that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
"Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church & in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever & ever. Amen." (Ephesians 3:14-21)
That's a beautiful, touching, wonderful prayer! But I have a question for you. Is it possible we have become so self-sufficient that we think we don't really need God anymore?
Surely not! But I'm afraid that when things are going well, we oftentimes act as if we really don't need God.
You see, if we get sick, we can call the doctor or go to the emergency room. If a natural calamity destroys our property, we can fill out an insurance claim. If company comes unexpectedly & we're short on food, we can go to the super-market.
If we run out of cash, we can use plastic. If we're having relational difficulties, we can go to a counselor. So with all this, who needs God?
B. Now most of us here obviously don't think that way. I mean, we know that we need Him! Each week we gather in His name. We sing songs of praise, & worship Him. We join together in study of His Word. And we pray, believing in the power & importance of prayer.
Or do we pray? When we're asked during the worship service to pray for people by name, are we really interested & involved enough to pray for them during the rest of the week? Or do we believe that everyone else is going to be praying for them, so we don't need to add our prayers, too?
Do we really believe that God is a prayer-hearing & a prayer-answering God? Or do we think that God no longer wants to use His power the way He did back in Bible times? Has He just turned our lives over to us & expects us to do the best we can with what we have – to plan carefully & then to implement our plans?
ILL. In Woody Allen's play, "Love and Death", Napoleon walked by his lady's room & heard voices. Suspicious of her faithfulness to him, he questioned her.
"I was praying," the lady explained. "But I heard two voices," Napoleon said. "I do both parts," she replied.
Well, we may smile at her answer. But is that what we do with God - both parts? Do we talk to God & then tell Him what His answer should be? And if He doesn't do what we ask, we just don't pray any more?
C. But wait a minute! The reason we pray is not because we believe in the power of prayer. We pray because we believe in the power of God. We believe that He is the all-powerful God of the Bible, who has not put His power on hold.
Psalm 115:3 declares, "Our God is in heaven; He does whatever pleases Him." God does whatever He pleases, & He doesn't need our vote - nor does He wait for our veto.
Even King Nebuchadnezzar knew that the God of Israel had that kind of power, for he declared, "He does as He pleases with the powers of heaven & the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back His hand or say to Him: 'What have you done?'" (Daniel 4:35)
PROP. So if we're going to talk about prayer, the first thing we need is to realize the awesomeness of God. Some have been taught that the only reason to pray is to change ourselves. But the Bible does not teach that as a reason to pray.
Instead, the Bible teaches that prayer can make a difference in what God does, & that prayer can also have an effect on our circumstances.

ISLAMABAD - Fearing the threat and potential spread of Ebola virus disease in the country, the Ministry of National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination has called for effective preventative measures to avert deaths from the virus.
Taking notice of unprecedented outbreak of Ebola Virus disease currently speeding in West Africa (Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone) with 746 deaths, Minister for National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination Saira Afzal has asked the provinces to take urgent steps against this virus.
"Although, no case has been reported in the country but the threat and potential for rapid spread in our region remains high due to frequent movement of people between the affected countries related to trade and transit etc," she said.
Ebola virus disease (EVD) is a severe acute viral illness often characterised by the sudden onset of fever, intense weakness, muscle pain, headache and sore throat. This followed by vomiting, diarrhea, rash, impaired kidney and liver function, and in some cases both internal and external bleeding. Though, the disease has a high fatality rate of up to 90 percent, it also depends on the immunity level of a patient, according to health officials.
For effective prevention of Ebola virus disease, the Ministry has addressed a letter along with the advisory to the chief secretaries of all provinces and relevant stakeholders to take the preventative steps on urgent basis. In the absence of effective treatment and a human vaccine, raising awareness of the risk factors for Ebola infection and the protective measures is the only way to reduce human infection and death, says the advisory issued by the ministry.
It asks the health officials to create awareness among common people and health practitioners to reduce the risk of human-to-human transmission on the community arising from direct or close contact with infected patients, particularly with their bodily fluids.
"Close physical contacts with Ebola patients should be avoided. Gloves and appropriate personal protective equipment should be worn when taking care of ill patients at home. Regular hand washing is required after visiting Ebola patients in hospital, as well as taking care of patients at home," it said.

Subtotal: $0.00
Get all of the ingredients for this project with the click of a button!
ONE: Melt 13 ounces of Olive Oil Melt and Pour Soap Base in the microwave on 30 second intervals until fully melted. Mix in ½ oz of Fresh Bamboo Fragrance Oil.
TWO: Into a separate small, heat safe container, pour out 1 oz of the melted soap and mix in 3 mini scoops of Olive Leaf Powder. Mix until there are very few clumps. Rubbing alcohol will help to break up the clumps. If the soap starts to cool down too quickly and you are unable to stir, just pop it back in the microwave for 10 seconds.
TIP: Cover the remaining soap in the large container with plastic wrap. This will keep the soap warm and prevent a skin from forming on top of the soap.
THREE: Use the injector tool to fill in the square borders of each cavity. Keep the fill line low so none of the soap flows into the bamboo part of the design. But if you do get a little overflow try using the clean-up too or a toohpick to remove the excess soap once it sets-up.
FOUR: Pour out another ounce of the clear soap and add 5 scoops of the Green Zeolite Clay. Mix well and reheat if necessary. Then use an injector to fill in the bamboo and leaves parts of each cavity. Let the soap cool. Since it's such a thin layer it should only take 5-10 minutes.
FIVE: Reheat the remaining Olive Oil soap base if necessary and mix in 4 teaspoons of Bamboo Extract Powder. Mix well until there are no clumps. Once the soap has cooled down to 130 degrees, spray the first two layers of soap with rubbing alcohol then fill each cavity to the top.

Diagnosis of Sleep Apnea
by Rosalyn Carson-DeWitt, MD
If your doctor suspects that you have sleep apnea, you will need an exam of your mouth, nose, throat, and neck to make sure that there aren't any problems with those tissues or structures. You may be referred to an ear, nose, and throat specialist (otolaryngologist).
You will be asked about your sleep habits, such as whether you snore and if your bed partner witnesses that you stop breathing. You will also be asked about daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and if you easily fall asleep. A screening form may be completed, such as the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS).
There are 2 tests that can help in the diagnosis of sleep apnea: the polysomnogram and the multiple sleep latency test. A sleep specialist usually conducts both of these tests in an overnight sleep laboratory. However, it is possible to perform a modified test at home.
Polysomnogram Test (Sleep Study)
For this test, you spend the night in a sleep center. Tiny electrodes are attached to various areas of your body in order to closely monitor your heart rate, eye movements, brain waves, and muscle activity throughout the night. Monitors also record your pulse rate, information about your breathing, changes in the concentration of oxygen in your blood, and your body position. An electrocardiogram (EKG) keeps track of whether you have any changes in your heart's rhythm during sleep. The number of apnea events is recorded.
A modified version of this test can sometimes be performed at home.
If you have obstructive sleep apnea (the most common type of sleep apnea), you may have the same test again, while wearing a face mask that provides positive pressure. This is called continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). This mask is supposed to prevent the collapse of your airway and maintain your breathing during the night. At times, evaluation with CPAP can occur during the second half of the night after evaluation without CPAP. This is called a split-night study.
Multiple Sleep Latency Test
This test is usually done the day after the polysomnogram. With the same set of electrodes still attached, you are asked to take a series of 20-minute naps, every 2 hours throughout the day. The electrodes provide information about how quickly you fall asleep and how quickly you reach various levels of sleep, particularly the level called rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. This test can help determine your level of daytime sleepiness due to sleep apnea. If you fall asleep in 5 or fewer minutes, it may be a sign of extreme sleepiness due to sleep apnea. This test is most often performed to evaluate for other sleep disorders such as narcolepsy. It is often not necessary when evaluating for sleep apnea.
Other Tests TOP
If you're suspected of having central sleep apnea (less common than obstructive sleep apnea), you may need a variety of other tests to diagnose an underlying medical condition. Your doctor will have to determine what other symptoms you have and use these symptoms to determine which further studies may be needed.

From "Italian Cooking: At Home," (above) by Gianni Scappin, Alberto Vanoli and Steven Kolpan for the Culinary Institute of America (Wiley). Serves 4.
8 ounces green asparagus
Kosher salt as needed
5 large eggs
3 tablespoons whole milk
2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Trim the asparagus by snapping off the hard portion of the stalk. Peel the stems. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the asparagus and cook until just barely tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold running water. Cut each stalk in half lengthwise.
Whisk together the eggs, milk and cheese in a medium bowl. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-low heat. When the butter has stopped foaming, pour in the egg mixture and place the asparagus on top of the eggs.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the eggs are set, 10 to 12 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve hot.

I like what I see over at our namesake URL: CrimeScene.com.
Basically, they make up a fake homicide each week (set in Oxford, Miss.) and let users try to solve the crime. They post "evidence" like autopsy photos, 911 recordings, suspect lists, etc.
You have to pay a registration fee to join, but I'm thinkin' about it. Sounds like an interactive First 48, and that's something I can get behind.

what we do
First, a little about what we don't do. We don't just "do Wills" in the sense that most people think when they think of estate lawyers. In other words, we don't just meet for an hour to get twenty minutes worth of information to plug into a Will form and expect nothing else to happen until your death, hoping someone calls us to ask what to do with that Will so we can then charge a healthy fee to make "real money". No, we don't "do Wills" like that. Here's what we really do.
We actually help you plan your life, protect your assets and preserve your legacy for those people and organizations dear to you. We are in the business of relationships, not just transactions. We draft documents only after extensive questioning to make sure, first, that we're drafting the right kinds of documents and, no less importantly, that each document says the right thing to make sure your individual desires and intentions are met.

Governor's energy conference highlights expansion of nuclear plant and natural gas
- October 3, 2012
- |
More than a third of the construction is complete on a $14 billion expansion of the Vogtle nuclear plant near Augusta, Ga. ― the first expansion of a nuclear facility in the U. S. in more than three decades.
While the massive project has run into some challenges, Stan Wise, commissioner of the George Public Service Commission, said Wednesday during the Governor's Conference on Energy in Richmond that "We're ahead of the game." The units are expected to come on line in 2016 and 2017.
Wise was the luncheon speaker for the governor's third annual energy conference at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. The event, which drew a smaller crowd than in year's past with just more than 600 people, continues through tomorrow.
So far, Wise said the certified construction cost for completing the twin reactors, $6.1 billion, is 4 percent less than the original certified amount of $6.4 billion. Four companies have an ownership interest in the project: Georgia Power, Oglethorpe Power, MEAG Power, and Dalton Utilities. The operator is Southern Nuclear, the nuclear plant operating arm of the Southern Co., one of the largest energy companies in the South East.
All told, the project represents a $14 billion investment, with the building of the two new reactors the largest construction project in Georgia's history. Wise said about 5,000 jobs will be created during the construction phase and 800 permanent jobs during the life of the plant.
Georgia expects 4 million new residents by 2030, and Wise said the expansion will help meet increasing power demands and keep rate increases down. "We're projecting the added costs to rates to be 7to 8 percent, and it could be lower with the completion of Vogtle 3 and 4," he said. The state already receives 20 percent of its power from nuclear.
As for challenges, Wise noted that Georgia Power and other owners filed a lawsuit in August seeking a $30 million refund from contractors over a dispute involving the removal of 3.9 million cubic yards of earth during excavation for the reactors, which incurred extra costs for backfill to refill the areas.
Changes in the project also came in the aftermath of the meltdown of a nuclear reactor in Fukushima, Japan, in March 2011. "I don't fault the NRC (Nuclear Regulatory Commission) for the changes that came after Fukushima," Wise said. He added that the Westinghouse AP 1000 reactors in Georgia are a different design than the reactors in Japan.
The Japanese crisis prompted calls in the U.S. for more regulation and concern over the lack of a national plan on how to store spent nuclear fuel. Pressure from anti-nuclear groups, backed by a court ruling in June, later led the NRC to freeze decisions on new licenses for nuclear construction. The moratorium order, however, did not apply to Vogtle and another twin tower project by S.C. Electric & Gas Co. in South Carolina, because the two projects already had received their combined construction and operating license from the NRC.
In an interview with Virginia Business, Wise said financing for the Vogtle nuclear reactors is still being worked out. Conditions of a loan guarantee commitment from the U. S. Department of Energy [for as much as $8.3 billion] remain under analysis, to see if they will be favorable to ratepayers, Wise said. In the meantime, Georgia has gone to the bond markets and has moved forward on financing some of the long-term debt to take advantage of the market's low-interest rates.
The impact on the natural gas industry of new, shale deposits was another conference topic.Industry officials called the massive shale deposits "a game changer" that will lead to long-term price stability and new opportunities, particularly in the industrial markets and transportation.
Michelle Bloodworth, vice president of state affairs and business development for America's Natural Gas Alliance, noted the beginning of what she called a "manufacturing renaissance," with companies such as U. S. Steel investing in a new $4 billion plant in Louisiana that will be fueled by natural gas. "There are a lot of exciting announcements like this across the U.S.," she said.
Another speaker, Sarah Jordan, project manager for Electric Power Research Institute, said that of the 198 giga watts of new capacity expected to come online between now and 2020, 73 percent of it is expected to come from natural gas.
One of the reasons more natural gas plants are being built is because of cost. Robert "Bob" Powers, executive vice president and COO for American Electric Power, based out of Columbus, said a coal-fired plant costs three times more per kilowatt hour to build than a gas-fired one. "Gas costs about $500 per kilowatt hour to build, and we can build the plant in three years," he said, whereas the permitting process alone for coal or nuclear plants can take years.
Other speakers bemoaned the country's regulatory environment in Washington, saying the U. S. needs to streamline its permitting process, so companies will invest in new energy projects that will create jobs. "We're entering an era of energy abundance. We're sitting on 200 years worth of natural gas," said Karen A. Harbert, president and CEO, Institute for 21st Century Energy, U.S. Chamber of Commerce. "We've turned into a banana republic," she said, "Build absolutely nothing near anyone … We need to prioritize energy as the next big thing, but we have to get the government out of the way."
Even with its $16 trillion dollar debt, Powers said the U. S. still acts like a rich country, "when we're not that far away from being Greece. If we want something, we go in debt for it. We're getting very concerned that the nation is heading to an unsustainable situation, and energy regulation is just one example."

Isser and Rae Price
There is an old Hasidic story about a young lad
who was taken on a visit to the Maggid of Kosnitz.
There, someone said to him, "I'll give you a gulden if
you will tell me where the Lord lives." Whereupon the
boy replied, "And I'll give you two gulden if you will
tell me where He doesn't." This understanding of the
continuing presence of the Lord was always a factor in
the lives of Isser and Rae Price. Love of family, dedica-
tion to synagogue and the Jewish community, and
respect for learning were important considerations for
Isser Price. These values have continued to direct the
lives of Rae Price and her children and grandchildren.
Many things have come from the hands of the Price
family, most without fanfare or publicity, which have
added to the spiritual and cultural enrichment of
Jacksonville, the University of Florida, and the State of
The good things that people do are neither
forgotten nor lost. They are remembered in the respect
that others have for them and in the good name that
they leave behind. The Price family name will be
neither forgotten nor neglected in the annals of higher
education. Their support of learning will be a continu-
ing blessing.

The reception, immediately following the dedi-
cation, will be held in the Friends of Music Room,
University Auditorium.
You are cordially invited to tour The Isser and
Rae Price Library of Judaica between four and five-
thirty this afternoon. Nancy J. Schulson's sculpture,
"Family," will be on exhibition for the first time in the
library. The sculpture, commissioned by Professor and
Mrs. Paul George, has been donated to the Center for
Jewish Studies in memory of Mrs. George's mother,
Evelyn Z. Ross.
The University Libraries acknowledge with
pleasure the fine assistance provided by the Brothers
and the Little Sisters of Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity.
The Library
The Isser and Rae Price Library staff strives not
only to provide the materials necessary for intellectual
development but to act, too, as a center for the ex-
change of ideas, aspirations, and the products of
scholarship. A library represents the accumulated
wisdom of the community. It is the memory of the
culture, out of which new ideas and syntheses emerge
to enliven future generations.
While the preservation of its resources is impor-
tant, the library is not a hoard of materials locked
away forever. On the contrary, the use of the materials
refreshes the library, pointing out needs and collec-
tions which ought to be enhanced. The library will
lend materials whenever possible, and it welcomes gifts
of materials, funds through which it can purchase
materials, and suggestions concerning services it may
provide. As the finest assemblage of Judaica in the
Southeastern United States, the Isser and Rae Price
Library looks forward to serving its constituency and
welcomes support from its users.
The Bookplate
The drawing in the Isser and Rae Price Library of Judaica
bookplate, illustrated on the front page of this program, should be
interpreted allegorically. The central concept is creation, the
movement from nothingness to completion, expressed through
symbols which have meaning on several levels simultaneously: the
creation of the world, the creation of Judaism, the creation of
wisdom and knowledge in the individual, and the creation of the
The drawing echoes the northern Renaissance style, with
the traditional black and white floor tiles standing for duality, the
separation of the light from the darkness, and the beginning. The
room represents the library; it is the known universe, the human
condition, and an image of the human ability to both record and
discover knowledge. Within the room, which is only partially
revealed, the table supported by armadillos and the window sill
with its alligator in relief stands for earth, material reality, and
Florida. The seven shelves of books symbolize the creation of
knowledge and the library, and the shelves continuance out of the
picture itself show hope for the future. The menorah, stands for
the six days of creation and the Sabbath, as well as characterizing
a site where a Jew worships and the religion itself. The window
which admits light-a symbol of perfection-is surrounded by a
frame carved with oranges, orange blossoms, and mockingbirds.
While obviously associated with Florida, these emblems historical-
ly represent the concepts of perfection, eternal love, and freedom.
The Magen David, placed in the window's keystone, represents
mankind's unity with the Lord in the quest for truth. The
Romanesque windowframe, in itself, stands for order and logic.
The window looks out into infinite space, the unknown.
This space is broken by a single palm tree, the Florida Sabal palm.
In Hebrew the palm tree is called "Tamar" and it symbolizes the
word of the Lord. The chair and the open book anticipate the
library's user, as well as the ideal that through study one reaches

designed and printed by the artist, Becky Gaver, in 1978.

Popular Teas from TeeccinoSee All 10 Teas
Recent Tasting Notes
Sipdown (640)!
This was strange to me for a couple reasons. To start, it doesn't taste bad at all. It is a really strong flavour though that distinctly tastes like three things. Thing one? Mint. Lots of it. Thing two? Very dark roast coffee. This is kind of where this tisane loses me; I don't loathe coffee but I definitely don't enjoy it and this is BOLD stuff. Thing three? Dark chocolate. This is where the tisane kind of wins me back; because I LOVE the pairing of a really, really strong mint and a dark, just slightly bitter chocolate taste. It felt like drinking the most decadent, indulgent cup of dark, roasty hot cocoa with a splash of peppermint schnapps. I could really get into that if it wasn't for that weird coffee taste.
So close to loving this, but so far. I'm just going to call it delightfully 'ok'. That sounds fitting. Anyway, thanks for sharing VariaTEA!
Kicking off some reviews of teas I got to try from the Travelling Tea Box! It doesn't want to let me review the Adagio ones for some reason (that tea page insists I'm not logged in?) so we'll start here.
Not coffee, but remarkably coffee-like; a bit more bitter and acidic than my usual evening non-coffee, DandyBlend, which is not a bad thing! Happy to have discovered this one
I'm a fan! I can't do caffeine in the evening, but sometimes want something with more body than tea and less sugar than hot chocolate – it hits that spot well. Reminds me that I should add some to the Tea Box when I send it on :) since it's easy to find around here (Boston)
I'm not sure this really counts as a tea, but it is an herbal blend and it's on Steepster so I'll make a note of it here. To me, this tastes just like coffee. It always brews up really strong so I add some sugar and cream to tone it down. This one does have a bit of an artificial taste but all in all it's a good cup.
I've really enjoyed each of the Teeccino flavors I've tried. I tend to keep these stocked in my pantry since I don't drink much coffee. It's a nice alternative.
Flavors: Artificial, Coffee
After my previous experience with Teeccino, my expectations for this tea were very low. The dry bag does have a lovely hot cocoa smell. The brew is the color of coffee and smells like coffee and chocolate as advertised. I actually got my hopes up that this tea would not be awful.
Well…I was kind of right. It is more palatable than the other Teeccino that I had (French Roast, which I rated 12 and poured down the sink after 3 sips). This does actually taste like chocolatey coffee. Not great, but drinkable. Kind of like bad coffee. A touch of rice milk really pulls the flavors together and makes this cup almost pleasant. I don't taste any of the chile, but the coffee and chocolate flavors are clear and complementary. I have a much better impression of this company now. I suspect that I would have rated this tea higher if I didn't still have the memory of that French Roast. I am trying to adjust for that in my rating. Still, first impressions are hard to get over.
At any rate, I'm quite glad to say that this is another sipdown.
I quite enjoyed this! I got a sample at the NYC Coffee and Tea festival back in March and am only trying it. I'm not really a fan of coffee though so it probably wouldn't satisfy a coffee drinker as a substitute. However, this is easy to enjoy purely on its on merits. It tastes roasty and robust. Probably not as robust as real coffee. Maybe. Eh, what do I know? It's also a bit malty from the roasted barley. I had mine with a splash of almond milk and agave. delicious dessert drink. I looked into buying some but this stuff is pricy! I think I'll stick with tea for now. :)
Backlog – I keep scribbling notes as I go and then failing to type them up into coherent paragraphs.
I had a nice big Sunday breakfast yesterday and wanted a cup of coffee with my meal. I can't really have coffee, so I thought I'd give this a shot instead.
I'd have done better drinking coffee. This just tastes like burnt chicory, with a hint of carob. I followed package instructions (brew 3-5 minutes using boiling water), so I don't think the burnt taste can be attributed to user error. I found this thoroughly unenjoyable. I took a sip, was put off by the taste, ate until I forgot just how bad it was and decided to give it another shot, and was equally put off the second time. And the third. After that, I just poured out the rest.
Lucky this is a sample.
James R sent me some of this with the Harney's Hot Cinnamon Sunset I bought – thanks! This is interesting! Now, I'm no coffee expert — I drank more coffee when I was four years old (with milk in it). So coffee drinkers would probably scoff at this. But I like it! It's like a watery coffee that tastes very much like coffee, but with added tea-like things that you wouldn't find in coffee to make it better… like dates. And I like that it doesn't have caffiene! This is a nice change from all this tea I've been drinking.
I do miss drinking coffee sometimes but not the acid reflux that always seemed to come with it. It doesn't really taste like coffee but it's dark and satisfying with a nice barley hazelnut and date flavor. I did add some soymilk and it's a nice afternoon drink, I had some for dessert last night too. I liked it and will probably get more and try the other flavors. Although I guess it isn't really a tea! ;-)
It's not coffee. If the caffeine or acidity of coffee bothers your stomach, then you should try Teeccino. It tastes like mediocre coffee and gives you that warm feeling like drinking a cup of coffee gives you. It's a nice alternative if you were told you shouldn't drink coffee anymore.
OK, this has "coffee" in the name but technically it's no different from some of the tisanes that have been reviewed here on Steepster as it's really just a herbal blend. I wanted to share this here because of how freaking good it is!
I prepared this using a steeping basket and it turned out awesome. The fragrance is rich and chocolaty and there's an indescribable depth. The flavor is bold, malty, full of body and the chocolate is very pronounced. There's also a subtle heat from the chili peppers which enhance the chocolate flavor.
This is the best caffeine free chocolate beverage I've ever tasted. It's a little pricey, but I'll be keeping this in the pantry for the winter ahead.

Best Valentines Gifts for Him - The Ultimate Sexy Gift Basket
Are you looking for the Best Valentines Gifts for Him? Want it to be a sexy Valentines gift? From a guy's perspective, the Ultimate Sexy Valentine's Day Gift Basket is one he will never forget - If you can pull it off!
This gift basket will contain a variety of things - both tangible "stuff," and sentiments - and can be added to or deleted from however you would like, to suit your guy and you.
It is called The Valentines Day Blind Date Gift Basket, and if you do it right, it will be a memory that you and he will remember and talk about for years to come. And best of all, you get to compose the contents and arrangements to suit the personality of your guy, as only you can know him.
The Sexy Valentines Day Blind Date Gift Basket
Valentines Gifts for Him - The Sexy Blind Date Gift Basket
The Blind Date Gift Basket, a Valentines Gift for Him, is part of a larger gift that includes an intimate Valentine's Day dinner at a nice restaurant, and other traditional gift items.
When picking the items for your gift basket, remember that guys like "stuff," stuff for themselves, and sexy stuff for you. And they like candy, intimate time with you, and more intimate time with you.
This Ultimate Valentines Gift basket will include all that.
The list will include:
- A "stuff" gift for him, like a; watch, keychain, CD, movie, gadget, tool, or whatever you think he might like based on his hobbies and interests. This is not intended as a romantic gift, the overall "Blind Date" gift basket will handle the romantic part, this part of the gift is intended to be something that he will use - and think about you every time he uses it.
- The "stuff" gift could also be jewelry, if he is a jewelry-type of guy, and it should be something he would wear all the time or use frequently. Like; a link bracelet, a chain necklace, or a pair of cuff links. If he is a business person, a quality pen, or pen and pencil set might work.
- A gift with a special meaning that is really for you - like a piece of lingerie, or a pair of panties, that are boxed with a note that you would be glad to model them for him
- A gift for the "setting", like incense or a mood candle, a romantic CD of YOUR favorite music, or a romantic love-story type of movie. Something that relates to "after dinner activities.
- A bottle of Wine and two glasses
- Chocolate - some Hersheys Kisses and some of his favorite chocolate. Or even a box of Valentines candy, just stay away from a heart shaped box.
- Body oils or lotions, with a personal note that you "heard" about them from a girlfriend
- A wallet-size photo of you, the most sexily beautiful one you can come up with. But NOT too sexy, you want it to be one he could show his most casual friends. But you can put a sexy comment on the back. That would be just for him.
The Scenerio of the Ultimate Blind Date Valentines gift for Him
Here is the set-up for the Ultimate Blind Date Valentines gift for Him.
Mail him a Valentine's Day card, via USPS mail, not email, with an invitation for dinner. Include a message with the details. If possible, try to time it so he receives it 2 or 3 days before the dinner date, but not more than 5 days before.
The message could read something like this: (just an example -create your own message)
John, part of my Valentine's gift for you is a romantic dinner for two at SoHo's. I have made reservations for 8pm. But I will have to meet you there, so please don't be late. Love, me. ps. the reason I have to meet you there is part of the mystery, so please don't ask me about it and spoil the gift.
The reason you insist on meeting him there is to give you an opportunity to make an "entrance!" It is an important part of the whole package.
You should browse the menu and pre-order the dinner selections for both of you. You will give the restaurant your dinner order when you make the reservations. *This will be part of your control of the evening. He will realize he is completely in your hands from the moment you sit down.
Also, if possible, ask them for a table where he won't be able to see you arrive at the door. Tell them it's a special dinner and they will be happy to oblige.
Call the restaurant about an hour before your reservation time and tell them you will be about 15 minutes late. Ask them to seat "John" as soon as he arrives, explain you are slightly delayed, and offer him a drink.
Note: you will have to arrange for a taxi or a friend to drive you to the restaurant so that you can both leave in one car.
You will need a single red rose on a stem, a shopping bag to hold your gift basket, (yes, you will give it to him at the restaurant, it will enhance the experience), and yourself, looking as sexily beautiful and classy as you can get away with in public.
Ask the maitre d' or waiter to lead you to his table. make sure the rose you are carrying is visible to all, (yes, people will be watching). When you get to the table - introduce yourself, in a voice just loud enough for surrounding tables to hear, (he will notice that they are watching), present the rose to him, and ask if you may join him for dinner. Something like this, at the table;
Hello John, I'm Angie, and this is for you, (present the rose), may I join you for dinner?
The logic behind this? The surrounding guests will only see a beautiful woman asking to join a gentleman's table, they won't know, at first, that you two are already a couple. He will know that everyone around him is watching, and won't know, at first, what is going on, but he will be enjoying the spotlight. Bam! part 1 - the initial impact - successful!
Then you, so everyone notices, place your shopping bag by your chair and allow "John" or the maitre d' to seat you.
If "John" asks about the bag, just deflect his questions, don't let him see what is in it, tell him it's for after dinner.
When the waiter arrives, just tell them they already have your dinner order and you are ready to eat. (ps. watch the surprise on "John's" face when he hears this)
Enjoy dinner, but deflect any questions he has. Be mysterious. Tell him he will find out after dinner.
Phase one complete.
Begin phase two.
Dinner is over, have the waiter clear the table and order your after-dinner drinks; coffee, wine or whatever. Drag it out a little before you bring out your Ultimate Gift Basket. Hopefully "John" will ask you about it and you can tease him a little by delaying the presentation a little to build his anticipation.
Time for the gift basket! Take it out of the bag and place it on the table. (you can be sure any surrounding guests that were there when you arrived will be watching too, and "John" will also know they are watching - more impact!)
Tell him this is another part of his Valentines gift, and to go ahead and open the items in it.
Note: be ready to caution him to be discrete as he opens the lingerie and body oil gifts, but wait until he begins to open them before you caution him. Don't forewarn him, it will lessen the intrigue.
Now sit back and enjoy as he opens the items, one by one. Bet you will be getting more than one sly glance and suppressed smile. Also bet that when he is finished opening the items, he will be hurrying you out of there as fast as he can.
Bam! Phase two successful!
Phase three is up to you. Pat yourself on the back and enjoy the rest of your Valentine's Day evening.

I'm getting tired of the assertion that "religion" - maybe I should say, "Religion" with a capital R - is responsible for all the evils in the world and the idea that all Christians (or Muslims, or other people of faith for that matter) are ignorant, fanatical and intolerant. I have increasingly seen variations on these themes, mostly by people identifying as agnostic, atheist, New Age or "spiritual-but-not-religious", often implying or culminating in the idea that if we banned or abolished all religion, this would go away. No more evil, no more bad or hateful or harmful people left to lash out at others. No more rape or murder; no more war. Which are lovely "no"s to be sure, and I'm all for them.
But here's a thing or two. Thing One: Most wars are (historically) not fought over or backed by religion.
For more on the causes of wars, here's a short, factual article from a Catholic blog and a completely secular opinion as well. Thing Two: to
"abolish religion" is to rescind people's rights to their own beliefs
and spiritual practices, to force them to go into hiding when they worship and persecute them. It's been tried in several places throughout
history, including Sudan, Israel-Palestine and Nazi Germany... not really with favorable outcomes. I can't help but think that rather then getting rid of faith-based communities ("organized religion"), if more people actually paid CLOSER attention to the various paths to God
they profess to follow, and made MORE of an effort to "be religious",
there would be more peace-, charity- and love-based interaction and far fewer wars and
hate crimes. Hatred is not at the core of any religion; not Islam, not
Christianity, not Wicca, Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Paganism, Satanism
(truly), Jainism or any other. Religion doesn't breed hatred -
intolerance does. And from what I've seen, atheists and agnostics are as
likely to be intolerant and hateful as religious fanatics - they just
don't (or don't always) use God as an excuse.
Are there hateful, angry extremists who rail against others in the name of God? Yes. Are some heinous crimes committed by religious fanatics or in the name
of a particular religion? Yes - of course. They have been throughout
history and modern ones make great, sensational news headlines (the more
horrific the better, it seems). AND, as the links above reflect... heinous crimes have also been committed throughout
history and still are in modern times, without religion behind them. People
are, by nature, competitive, greedy, power-hungry, frightened, covetous - as well as kind,
considerate, foolish, fallible, thoughtful, vengeful, loving, imperfect... there's a reason
we have so many words to describe human emotions, moods and behaviors. What it comes down to is this: we don't need less religion in the world, nor would that create the change so desperately needed; we need less hatred, less intolerance, more love and more effort to live together on this planet peacefully.

New Standards of HIV Treatment to Deprive Patients of Drugs
Russian Ministry of Public Health might become involved in a new corruption scandal. This time, it might be provoked by the Ministry's order concerning the new state standard of treating HIV and AIDS. The Federal AIDS Center said it might "disrupt the program of treating HIV-positive patients" because it drastically changes the list of anti-retroviral drugs. Doctors believe that the new standard, which appeared on the eve of the state tender for supplying HIV/AIDS drugs, was written "specially for certain companies" – international Janssen Cilag and its Russian partner Makiz-Farma.
Deputy Minister of Public Health and Social Development Vladimir Starodubov signed the order containing a new list of state-approved HIV/AIDS drugs in November. The new standard does not have some vital drugs which were on the list before, such as Combivir, a first-line drug most widely used in Russia, and second-line Trizivir, Reataz and Fuzion given to patients resistant to Combivir. Instead, the list now includes Darunavir, which is suggested for being widely used, and Ritonavir, which is always used together with Darunavir.
The Community of People Living with HIV were the first to give feedback on the Ministry's order. The organization's chairman Mikhail Rukavishnikov said the changes will lead to "mass death of patients, because the new standard violates all recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) on treating HIV-related deceases." The order surprised leading HIV experts as well. Vadim Pokrovsky, head of the Federal AIDS Center, said: "The new standard is almost a copy of the outdated standard of 2003. For instance, it includes Amprenavir, a drug which was removed from production long ago." Pokrovsky is convinced the matter is in replacing cheap drugs with expensive ones.
The expert estimated that Darunavir will set the state back $30 million (which is a sixth part of the budget allocated for HIV treatment in 2007): "It is the most expensive drug, and it should be used after all other drugs." Moreover, doctors believe such therapeutic regimen might simply harm HIV patients. "Darunavir is a new, expensive, under-examined drug. It was registered in Russia quite recently – just this year," said Pokrovsky. "If the state buys it, at least one quarter of registered patients will be deprived of therapy, because will simply not have enough money left to buy other drugs."
The order came somewhat before schedule. In August 2006, the Ministry had already adopted new standards for HIV/AIDS treatment, which underwent medical expertise. A tender for supplying HIV/AIDS drugs was scheduled for early December. That is why doctors think that a before-schedule order changing the drug list was timed for the tender for suppliers. They suspect the standard was written "specially for certain companies".
The only producer and creator of Darunavir in the world is Swiss-Belgian company Janssen Cilag. Ritonavir drug is produced by Indian company Hetero. The only partner of these two companies in Russia is large pharmaceutical producer Makiz-Farma. Members of the market believe that its owner is Igor Rudinsky, director general and co-owner of SIA International, the largest distributing company in Russia.
RosZdravNadzor, Russia's Public Health watchdog, supervising the supply of drugs to the people, yesterday refrained from giving comments about the new standard and its possible connection to the tender. However, the State Duma is already interested in the situation. "I have all grounds to think that the order was written for the sake of specific companies," said Mikhail Glushankov, head of the Duma's anti-corruption commission.
"I will address the top officials of the president's staff, who supervise national projects, and Dmitry Medvedev personally," promised the deputy.
