Saffron is a spice of Crocus sativus (Saffron crocus) which belongs to the family of iridaceae1 and studies has advocates its role in diseases cure. Its health management properties have been discussed in traditional prescriptions including Chinese, Ayurveda and Unani medicines. Crocus sativus has been reported its role as sedative, expectorant, anti-asthma, emmenagogue, and adaptogenic agent.2 Different plant parts like peels, fruits, seeds and rind of Crocus sativus contain various biochemically active ingredients such as crocin, crocetin, and safranal in different proportion. These constituents have demonstrated the health promoting effect through the modulation of various biological and physiological processes.
The studies based on animal models and laboratory research has revealed that saffron has therapeutic implication in health management through anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, hepatoprotective and anti-tumour activity. Experiment finding confirmed that stigma ethanolic fraction showed the highest antioxidant activity possibly due to high content of phenolics and flavonoids3 and other studies have reported crocin role in inhibition of edema formation.4 Experiments have been performed to examine the mechanism of chemopreventive activity of this spice and the result of such study has revealed that saffron notably reduces the increased number and incidence of hepatic dyschromatic nodules induced by diethylnitrosamine.5
Earlier studies reported that saffron is safe at various doses and did not show any severe side effects. Saffron aqua extract and pure crocin were safely tolerated in patients with schizophrenia.6 Study bases on evaluating the lactating toxicity and histological studies confirmed that saffron did not show any toxic effect on liver.7 This review is aimed to discuss the pharmalogical activities of saffron as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hepato-protective, cardiprotective, anti-diabetic and anti-tumour activity along with safe dosage levels based on clinical studies.
Chief ingredients of saffron
Saffron stigma is mixture of various components and such constituents have therapeutics importance in the health management through the modulation of various biological pathways. Saffron stigmas contain numerous volatile compounds and ingredients including crocin, picrocrocin and safranal and these compounds are accountable for color, taste and odor of saffron respectively.8-11 Safranal is the major coloring constituent of saffron, so saffron is used as a flavoring and coloring agent.12 In addition to these compounds, saffron also contains little amounts of other pigments like anthocyanin, α-carotene, β- carotene, and zegxantin.13
Possible mechanism of action of saffron and its ingredient in diseases prevention
The exact mechanism by which saffron and its constituents demonstrate the therapeutic role in diseases prevention is yet to be fully elucidated. Laboratory based research has revealed that saffron constituents modulate the activity of various enzymes involved in free radical scavenging. Moreover, these components reduce the lipid peroxidation and enhance the antioxidant status. Stigma ethanolic fraction of saffron showed the highest antioxidant activity that might be recognized due to the presence of phenolics and flavonoids.3-14 Other experimental data advocates that saffron helps in reduction of inflammation through the inhibition of cycoloxygenase enzyme activity. Saffron alleviates neuropathic pain via reduction of proinflammatory cytokines, antioxidant activity and apoptotic pathways15 and in vitro study has revealed that crocin possess dual inhibitory activity against COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes.4 Saffron also shows a very important role in the tumour prevention and some findings advocate that saffron and its constituents induce apoptosis or change the ratio of bcl2/bax and finally inhibiting the development and progression of tumour.
LD50, Safety and toxicity level of saffron and its ingredient
A study based on mice model revealed that LD50 value of saffron was 4120 ± 556 mg/kg7 and correspondingly, LD50 of safranal, a constituent of saffron is reported to be 1.48 mL/kg and 1.88 mL/kg in male and female mice respectively.16 Other study based on mice models have reported that, LD50 values of saffron stigma and petal extracts were 1.6 and 6 g/kg respectively in.17 In addition to this, saffron aqua extract and crocin have been found to be safely tolerated in patients with schizophrenia.6 Safranal, an ingredient of saffron was less-toxic in acute intraperitoneal route and non-toxic in acute oral administration in mice and rats.16 However, in sub acute toxicity tests, safranal showed alterations in hematological and biochemical parameters.16 Saffron tablets have proven that it showed a little change in hematological as well as biochemical parameters but such changes were within normal ranges.18 Rat model based study for sub-acute toxicity revealed that saffron showed increased survival and no mortality rates at a dose of 10 mg/kg.19 Saffron has confirmed it did not show toxic effect on liver whereas histo-pathological changes were noticed in the neonate kidneys.7 Moreover, earlier study has reported that the injection dose between 1.2 g and 2 g of saffron may cause some complications including nausea, vomiting and, diarrhea.20
Clinical studies on saffron and their constituent
Clinical trials based on the use of saffron and its individual components have confirmed the health promising effects. Double-blind study performed on patients, who were randomly allocated to receive saffron or imipramine capsule, have revealed that the dose of saffron is efficiently similar to imipramine in the treatment of mild to moderate depression.21 In another similar pilot study, forty adult outpatients were randomly assigned to get capsules of saffron or fluoxetine and the results revealed that fluoxetine is similar in the treatment of mild to moderate depression.22 Schizophrenic cases were used to study the safety and tolerability of saffron aqueous extract and crocin and the results of the study have revealed that none of the patients showed any severe side effects.6 WBC count was found to increase within a limited range in patients that getting saffron aqua extract and those patients did not show any clinical significance.6 Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study design consisting of one-month treatment of crocin tablets have confirmed that no major unfavorable effect was noticed during the trial.23 In a similar study performed on double-blind, placebo-controlled patients getting a capsule of saffron or placebo capsule for a six-week study. Crocus sativus showed significantly better outcome on the Hamilton depression rating scale and there were no significant differences observed in the two groups in terms of the side effects.24
Pharmalogical activities of saffron Anti-oxidant activity
The imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and antioxidant level is directly linked to the pathogenesis of diseases. The enhancement of antioxidant level or reduction of reactive species level is maintained through antioxidant properties of plants or their derivatives. Natural products or derivatives of medicinal plants usually contain various components including flavonoids which show a pivotal role as antioxidants and free radicals scavenging activity. Numerous studies based on in vivo and in vitro have confirmed that Crocus sativus has a significant antioxidant activity Table 1.
Antioxidant activity of saffron has been observed in extract of stigma and such extract shows role in the reduction of chlorophyll damage, lipid peroxidation, and protein oxidation.3 Similarly, other finding has confirmed that saffron stigma contains superior antioxidant activity.14 Earlier findings have demonstrated that active and inactive constituents of saffron extract have high antioxidant activity25 and saffron petal extract showed antioxidant activity.26 Another study demonstrated that constituent of saffron such as crocin has a potent antioxidant activity.27 Lebanon based finding demonstrated that saffron notably decreased lipid peroxidation as well increased superoxide dismutase activity when compared to control group.28 Cro cin, constituent of saffron showed role in the inhibition of lipid peroxidation and restored SOD activity29 and stigmas of Crocus sativus contains more antioxidant activity as compared to tomatoes and carrots.30
Natural product based treatments for migraine, pain, inflammation and arthritis are very popular in traditional medicine due to easily availability and almost no side effects properties. In this regard, C. sativus has also proven its role as an anti-inflammatory Table 1. A study was performed on mice models to evaluate its anti-inflammatory activity and the results revealed that extracts of stigma and petal of saffron showed anti-inflammatory activity.31 In a parallel study results demonstrated that ingredients of saffron such as crocin and safranal suppressed inflammatory pain response as well and decreased the number of neutrophils.32
Multi-drug resistant microorganism to antibiotics is alarmingly rising worldwide. As a treatment module against microorganism, natural products or derivatives of medicinal plants represent a symbol of good source of antimicrobial agents without any adverse side effect. Different parts of Crocus sativus, such as stamen and corolla have been employed as a good source of antimicrobial agents.33 Extracts of Crocus sativus against various bacterial strains have confirmed an improved activity against bacteria and fungi used as test organisms.34 In addition, antibacterial effects of other blends like aqueous, ethanolic and methanolic extracts of petal were measured against the foodborne pathogens and the results have confirmed that such extracts show antimicrobial activity against most of the pathogenic bacteria.35
Parts of medicinal plant like flowers, leaves, stem, roots and seeds have been found to possess a good hepato-protective activity. In this vista, saffron has also been checked for the liver ailments which possible improve or decrease various liver enzymes activity Table 1. Increases level of ALT, AST and bilirubin level and lowering total protein and albumin production was observed in acetaminophen treated rat models whereas pretreatment of rats with Crocus sativus petals extract resists this rise of aminotransferases and bilirubin levels and normalize the level of serum proteins as compared to disease control.36 Results of findings have confirmed that saffron and honey showed role in the reduction of toxic effects of aluminum chloride and alleviate its disrupting effects at biochemical and molecular levels37 and other results have confirmed that this ingredient of saffron definitely reduces the oxidative stress and prevents hepatotoxicity.38
In this regard, crocin from saffron has also been tried by some researchers to survey its role against renal problems. It has been observed that this compound obstructs the development of acute renal failure and oxidative stress in experimental animals.39 In a parallel study, safranal has been found to possess a protective effect against nephrotoxicity40,41
Several medicinal plants have been used for the treatment of heart ailments since ancient times. In this vista, saffron and its constituents have also supported the evidences of cardio-protective effects. Rat model based study has confirmed that whole saffron pretreatment or its individual constituents such as safranal pretreatment considerably decrease the serum LDH and CK-MB level, as well as myocardial lipid peroxidation as compared to isoproterenol – induced animals.42 Crocin, an ingredient of saffron revealed its protective effects of cardio-toxicity through reducing lipid peroxidation as well as alleviating apoptosis.43
In a similar study based on rat models, it was concluded that crocin improves toxic effects of diazinon through decreasing lipid peroxidation and restoring altered contractile and relaxant responses in aorta.44 The cardio-protective effect of saffron active constituents including crocin has been confirmed through regulation of oxidative stress.45 The finding concluded that Crocus sativus perfused during electrolysis might trap radical oxygen species and significantly improve myocardial function.46
Crocin has been examined for its role against cytotoxicity effects. In this scenario, it has been observed that pretreatment of groups or cells with crocin protected them from acrylamide-induced apoptosis via inhibition of intracellular ROS production.47 Furthermore, pretreatment of numerous dopaminergic cells of substantia nigra pars compacta from mice and retina of Parkinsonian cases were investigated for acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity by saffron and it was observed that saffron ingredient, crocin actively exhibits this activity.48,49 Crocin also attenuates the learning and memory impairment in streptozotocin injected animal groups.50
The extract of saffron has been found to be effective in reducing fasting blood glucose in mild diabetic and in severely diabetic rats.51 Other finding demonstrated that saffron with dose of 40 and 80 mg/kg significantly increased body weight and serum TNF-α and decreased blood glucose levels and glycosylated serum protein levels.52 In one more study, it was found that methanolic extract of saffron, crocin and safranal notably reduce the fasting blood glucose and HbA1c levels.53 Similarly, further study indicates that crocin, was found to significantly reduce the blood glucose level.54 Oral administration of saffron extract was found to significantly increase the body weight and regulates the serum insulin level in diabetic rats as compared to disease control groups.55
Earlier investigations concluded that Saffron showed anti-obesity and anorectic effects in the obese rat models. Moreover, its property of reducing the leptin level in obese cases indicates that saffron reduces fat mass and increases insulin sensitivity.56 In an experimental protocol, it was performed to assess the anti-obesity effects of ethanolic extracts of saffron and crocin. Results of this study demonstrated that saffron extract notably decrease the food consumption by obese rats as compared to control groups. Furthermore, crocin showed a noteworthy decrease on rate of body weight gain, total fat deposition and regulates the weight ratio of epididymal fat to body.57
Saffron also plays an important role in improving the fertility and increases the libido when consumed. Results have revealed that crocin and its aqueous extract particularly at doses of 160-320 mg/kg b.w. increased mounting and erection frequency behaviors and in addition to this reduced ejaculation, intromission and mount latency parameters.58
A study was performed to examine whether or not crocin, a major constituents of saffron hold anxiolytic activities. Either crocin which did not influence animal’s motor activity or diazepam notably increased the latency to enter the dark compartment. The study designates that treatment with chief ingredients of Crocus sativus L. induces anxiety relieving effects in the rat59 and safranal at higher dosage demonstrated anxiolytic effects and furthermore, safranal increased the total sleep time dose dependence.60
Earlier finding has supported the role of saffron in improving the immune system and it was shown that saffron increased the IgG level and decreased the IgM level as compared with the baseline and placebo groups.61 In addition to this, it increases the percentage of monocytes as compared with placebo.61 Other study concluded that saffron petal extract causes an increase in antibody response without any alteration in hematological parameters or histology of spleen.62
Effect on retinal function
Results have positively confirmed from a study that analogue of Crocus sativus were found to significantly increase the blood flow in the retina and choroid and enhance the retinal function recovery.63
Experiments based on mice were performed to evaluate the anticonvulsant activities of safranal and crocin and the results indicate that safranal reduced the seizure duration, delayed the onset of convulsions as well as protected mice from death.64 This study further investigated that crocin did not show this anticonvulsant activity at all.64
It is very well known that medicinal plants such as curcumin, ginger, carica papaya and black seed have therapeutic role in the management of numerous diseases including tumour.65,67 Saffron and its active constituents perform an important role in the inhibition of tumour development and progression Table 2. In this regard, numerous findings based on animal models confirmed that saffron plays a role in prevention of various types of tumour. Saffron extract via oral administration show increased life span of sarcoma -180, Ehrlich ascites Carcinoma and Dalton’s lymphoma ascites tumour bearing mice.68 Earlier findings reported that crocetin, an ingredient of saffron intensively reverted back the pathological changes noticed in cancerous animals69 and other finding concluded that saffron aqueous extract shows inhibitory effects on the growth of both transitional cell carcinoma and normal cell lines.70
Either intraperitoneal administration of Nigella sativa or oral administration of saffron after subcutaneous administration of MCA showed restriction of tumor incidence as compared with % MCA-treated controls.71 Anti-proliferative effects of saffron extract and pure crocin was examined on colorectal cancer cell lines. The result of this study revealed that both the extracts, significantly inhibited the growth of colorectal cancer cells whereas it did not affect normal cells.72 Further-more, cytotoxicity and DNA-adduct formation of microsomes activated by aflatoxin B1 in the fibroblast cells were noticeably inhibited by crocetin pretreatment.73 A finding showed that telomerase activity of HepG2 cells decreases after treatment with ingredient of saffron including crocin.74 Antiproliferative effects of saffron extract and individual constituent like crocin was evaluated on various malignant and non-malignant prostate cancer cell lines. Results based on these findings reported that crocin reduced proliferation in all malignant cells whereas nonmalignant cells were not affected at all.75
In addition to this, another experiment was performed to investigate the chemopreventive effect of aqueous saffron. The result of the studies reported that saffron ingestion inhibited the formation of skin papillomas and simultaneously reduced their size in animals.76 Furthermore, investigation has been done on the role of saffron to induce cytotoxic and apoptotic effects in lung cancer cells. The results of the study have revealed that proliferation of such cells was decreased after treatment of saffron in a dose- and time-dependent manner.77 Moreover, saffron induced morphological changes, decreases percentage of some viable cells, and induce apoptosis.77 Result of study revealed that crocin inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. Moreover, crocin inhibited the tumor weight as well as size of xenografts in nude mice. In addition to this Bcl-2 expression was inhibited and Bax expression in xenografts was increased.78
In another important study, performed on human pancreatic cancer cell line to elucidate apoptosis induction by crocin and the results of this study reported that crocin induced apoptosis and G1-phase cell cycle arrest.79
These days the popularity of alternative medicines based treatment is gaining much interest in the health practice. Saffron has shown its role in disease prevention and treatment and its importance in disease cure have been documented. Moreover, it is believed to be a safe and its adverse effect was not noticed at various doses. In addition, mortality was not noticed in animal model experiments at different dosage of individual ingredient of saffron. The role of saffron including crocin and crocetin in the management of numerous diseases has proven via modulation of various physiological and biochemical pathways. Saffron has also been reported to exhibit an anti-tumour effect through inactivation or activation of different molecular cascades. Research based on animal models and clinical trials are further needed to expand the understanding of saffron and its constituent’s role in diseases prevention.

Home Mortgage Information That Can Help You OutPosted at by PConran on category Mortgage
Applying for a mortgage is a very serious financial choice and the process should be handled carefully. Doing this without proper information may cause problems. If you are in the process of getting a loan and you are unsure about how any of the process works, it would be a great idea for you to continue reading.
It is important to get pre-approved for you home loan before you start looking at properties. Shop around to see how much you are eligible for so you can determine your price range. Once you have this information, you can figure out your monthly payment amount.
Refrain from spending excessively while you wait for your pre-approved mortgage to close. If a lender notices lots of charging activity before your mortgage is a done deal, they could change their mind about lending to you. Wait to buy your new furniture or other items until after you have signed your mortgage contract.
Before you start looking for home mortgages, check your credit report to make sure that there are no errors or mistakes. Your credit rating should be clean and free of errors. This can help you qualify for a good loan.
It is likely that your mortgage lender will require a down payment. In today’s world almost all mortgage providers will require down payments. Ask how much the down payment is before you submit your application.
Gather financial documents together before making your loan application. Most lenders require a standard set of documents pertaining to income and employment. You will be asked for pay stubs, bank statements, tax returns and W2 forms. Having documents available can help the process.
Predefine your terms before applying for a mortgage, not just to show the lender that you can handle the arrangements, but to keep your monthly budget aligned as well. Know what your maximum monthly payment can be without bankrupting you. Regardless of a home’s beauty, feeling house poor is no way to go through life.
You should have a work history that shows how long you’ve been working if you wish to get a home mortgage. Most lenders require a solid two year work history in order to be approved. Changing jobs often could make you ineligible for mortgages. Make sure you don’t quit your job while you’re applying for your mortgage loan, too.
You should not enter into a monthly mortgage that costs you anything over 30 percent of your total income. Otherwise, you run the risk of putting yourself into a financially devastating situation. When you can manage your payments, you can manage your budget better.
Think about hiring a consultant for help with the mortgage process. They will help you get a great rate. A pro is also able to get you the best possible terms.
An ARM, otherwise known as adjustable rate mortgage does not end when the loan terms end. The rate on your mortgage fluctuates depending on the current interest rates. Therefore, it is possible that the interest rate will be very high.
When you struggle with refinancing, don’t give up. HARP is a new program that allows you to refinance despite this disparity. Speak to your home loan provider about the new possibilities under HARP. If your lender won’t help you, move on to one who will.
Learn ways you can avoid being taken in by less-than-honest home mortgage lenders. Some will scam you in a heartbeat. Steer clear of slick lenders who try to persuade you. Avoid signing paperwork if the rates look too high for you. Stay away from lenders who claim that your bad credit does not matter. If the broker tells you to put something false on your application, leave the office immediately. You are being swindled.
If you are having a problem getting a mortgage from a bank or credit union, try working with a mortgage broker. Mortgage brokers often are able to obtain financing other lenders cannot obtain. Brokers work with a multitude of lenders, and are able to direct you to the optimum deal.
Now that you have more information about mortgages, put yourself out there. Apply this advice to make the process easier. Now you just have to choose a lender and begin the process of applying for a loan.

For example, the capital of Prague received only 17 million subsidies for the provision of general social work this year, while the necessary amount to cover all services is about 90 million. Milena Johnova, the Prague's adviser, told the Prague about the situation she said was critical.
"Maláčová Minister (Jana Maláčová, LabSSinistr de ČSSD – red Ed.) told us last week that the government certainly did not have the co-financing of this year's diminution, and that next year the municipalities should not have subsidies for carrying out social work with adults. In addition, the government has reduced 250 million subsidies for the social and legal protection of children and plans reductions of up to 50 percent for the coming year, "said John John.
Reducing subsidies by half can cause a significant risk that thousands of children will remain without help.Milena John, the Prague for yourself
Specifically, the social care departments (OSPOD), who pay social workers who are not enough with them, would lose their money.
"Last year just over 9,000 misused, abused or neglected children have been protected by OSPOD. There is no way to apologize it, cutting half-subsidies can cause a significant risk that thousands of children will be out of help, "said Juan, who said she was in danger of getting ridiculed.
Minister Jana Maláčová (ČSSD) said for Lidové noviny that until now it is only the government's internal budget negotiations and that it will fight for money in its resort.
Non-profit organizations also dislike the cuttings. For example, Sananim, who deals with drug trafficking, has received nearly three million fewer subsidies from the MLSA than last year.
"Due to the fact that these are unique residential facilities, it is neither possible nor ethically allowed that medical resocialization programs should be interrupted for two months or only reduced to healthy services," said Sananim Agáta Jankovská's leader.
Finance Minister Alena Schiller (ANO) said she wanted inventory of these cost-effective expenses for the MoLSA, so that the budget could be completed.
Home care is also a problem
Almost before the collapse is also reported domestic treatment, also due to lack of funds. Several organizations pointed out by the Minister Adam Vojtěch (ANO) about this open letter. They point out that in comparison with nurses in the hospital, whose average salary is CZK 43,000, a nurse in domestic care will receive around 25,000 CZK. Home doctors are paid for the repayment of healthcare companies.
"This is a clear mocking of our nurses' professional work and will certainly not assure the stability of the domestic medical segment. It is also necessary to face the current situation when domestic healing collapses due to the difficult decree of repayment of previous years," the letter says, who is the Association of Domestic Attentions from Everywhere, a Republic, Caritas At the Andean Republic and other organizations.
"If it were not for home care, the state should build at least ten other hospitals that should take great care of these patients when domestic healing would collapse," home careers are writing to the minister.
After its arrival, Vojtěch stated that the development of home care is its priority, but according to the current declaration of the Health Ministry, home managers must agree to increase payments with insurance companies themselves.
"The Health Ministry has been aware that domestic care has been severely undefined in the past. However, in 2018, under the direction of Minister Adam Vojtěch, the Health Ministry has stated clearly that it will not favor any segment over others and emphasized the conclusion of agreements between suppliers and sanctions, "spokesman Gabriela Štěpanyová told the Prava.

BASTROP, La. (KTVE/KARD) — On October 18, 2023, at 11:10 AM, Bastrop Police received a call for a welfare check at a residence on West Carter Avenue. According to authorities, neighbors reported that the couple that lived there had not been seen since October 13, 2023.
Upon arrival, officers detected a strong odor of decay coming from the residence and were able to gain entry into the home. Once authorities entered the home, they found two individuals deceased in the home’s only bedroom.
Once investigators arrived and a search warrant for the home was gained, it was learned that the two individuals were 42-year-old Jonathan Eagles and 41-year-old Jennifer Eagles. According to authorities, both victims were killed by a single gunshot wound to the head, and the suspected weapon used was recovered at the scene.
The investigation is ongoing and additional information will be released by KTVE as this investigation unfolds.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Defendants Alexanda Amon Kotey, 36, and El Shafee Elsheikh, 32, two militant fighters for the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) charged for their alleged participation in a brutal hostage-taking scheme that resulted in the deaths of four American citizens, today made multiple appearances here in federal court.
At 11:30 a.m. EST, both defendants appeared separately via video link for their respective detention hearings before U.S. Magistrate Judge Theresa C. Buchanan. Both defendants waived their detention hearing, and were remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals.
At 2:00 p.m. EST, both defendants appeared separately via video link for their respective arraignment hearings before Senior U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III. Both defendants waived formal readings of the indictment, pleaded not guilty, and requested a trial by jury.
Judge Ellis found that the case is unusual and complex, will require a considerable amount of discovery, and may include classified information. As such, Judge Ellis found that the ends of justice outweigh the interests of the public and the defendants in proceeding to trial within the 70-day deadline established by the Speedy Trial Act.
The next court appearance for both defendants is a status conference scheduled for Jan. 15, 2021.
A copy of this press release is located on the website of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia. Related court documents and information are located on the website of the District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia or on PACER by searching for Case No. 1:20-cr-239.

BioWare art and animation director Neil Thompson revealed the first screenshot for Dragon Age 3 during a talk at the Bradford Animation Festival.
Highlighting how video game art has progressed throughout the years, Thompson first showed an image of Space Invaders, then Mass Effect 3 and finally the image of Dragon Age 3, saying “how we got from here as an interactive screen to this, and to this, and ultimately to this” “That is Dragon Age: Inquisition,”
“That is Dragon Age: Inquisition,”he declared. “It's the first time anyone has seen a frame of it outside BioWare studios.” Although it was only on the screen for a few seconds, but lucky a fan on the took a snapshot of it.
You can see it below:
Dragon Age 3 is expected to be released for multiple platforms in autumn 2013.

If you live in a rural area, you may not have conventional water services available in your community. This mean that you will need to have a water well installed, which may be combined with a pump and filtration system to get the water to your home. There are many options for these things, which can be a submersible pump for a well near your home, or a well house if you could not have the well drilled near your home. Here are four options you have for the well pump and filtration system for your home:
1. Using Submersible Pumps For Wells Near Your Home
If you are able to have the well drilled near your home, you may be able to have a submersible pump installed. This is a pump that is installed inside the well casing, which will protect it from damage and the elements. The downside is that they will have to be removed to be repaired or replaced when something goes wrong. You may also have the well located further away from your home, which means that pipes and utilities need to be installed for the well. If the well is further away from your home, you may want to have different type of pump installed.
2. Well Houses And Buried Piping For Your Water Service
Well houses are an option for wells that need to be installed further away from your home due to septic tanks or other reasons. You will have to have utilities ran to the well, as well as pipes. This is why it may be better to have a above ground pump and well house. The pipes can be insulated and buried to protect them from the elements and freezing. If you do not want to have electricity going to the well house, there are also solar powered pumps available, which can be a good solution to avoid installing electricity to the well house.
3. Treating And Sanitizing Well Water For Potable Water
If the well you have for your home is for water service, it will need to be sanitized regularly. This is something that should be done when the well is drilled. You will also want to have the water quality checked regularly and sanitize the well after you use it. This can be done with well sanitizer products that you add to the well to kill any bacteria and other contaminants that can get into your well.
4. Different Options For The Filtration System For Your Home
Sanitizing your well will help to kill bacteria, but it may not remove things like heavy metals. This is why you may also want to have a filtration system installed for your home. With newer ionization water filtration systems, you will not only have a filtration system to remove heavy metals, but it will also be a second line of defense to keep things like bacteria out of your water supply. This will give you pure water to use in your home, and ensure that contaminants from the well do not get into the water your family uses.
These are some of the options you have for the well pump and filtration system you have installed for your home. If you need help with the installation of a well pump or filtration system, contact a well pump contractor (such as Mike's Pump and Well Service LLC) and ask them about some of these things.Share

Welcome to my website. I'm Albert Frost. Besides my dad, one of my biggest role models was my uncle Rick. He was a construction contractor who would let me come on his construction sites and also taught me everything he knew about building homes, including how to install hardwood flooring and add insulation. I always wanted to grow up to build houses like my uncle. I used to help my uncle with a lot of the grunt work needed to make a home a reality. But then I hurt my back playing football. Until I heal completely, I'm going to devote as much of my time as possible to teaching others about various construction topics I'm interested in.

As the drummer of Atreyu, an American metalcore band from Orange County, Brandon Saller has been a part of the music scene for 12 years. Besides playing drums, Saller is a talented guitarist and singer whose work has been heard in the Madden NFL 07 soundtrack and the movie “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” On this show, Saller will be performing mostly on acoustic guitar.
- * Although Atreyu formed in the late 1990s, Saller didn’t start singing lead on some songs until after the release of the group’s first album, “Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses.”
- * Besides drums, percussion and guitar, Saller also plays brass instruments on occasion.


The United States has mountains of poison chemical weapons, some leaking, that will cost $3.7 billion to dispose of safely, according to a paper prepared by President Reagan's transition team at the Pentagon.
The paper warns that "the obsolete and deteriorating stockpile requires a comprehensive plan" for detoxifying chemical weapons stored around the United States, on Johnston Island in the Pacific and in West Geermany.
Reagan has earmarked $20 million to gear up for producing an advanced artillery shell, which would release a deadly mist upon impact, and $4 million to start planning how to dispose of the stocks of chemical weapons.
Reagan stopped short of starting to "demilitarize" the stockpile.Such an effort, the transition team wrote, would require $331 million from fiscal 1982 through fiscal 1986 as a down payment on the $3.7 billion "total stockpile demilitarization" cost.
The transition team said some of the munitions "have been identified as leakers." Before releasing the once-secret document, the Pentagon censored how many weapons are leaking.
However, the Army has said there are "defective" nerve and blister gas munitions stored in Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Kentucky, Oregon and Utah -- some of which leaked, creating "mild" symptoms for some people, but no deaths or "known lasting effects."
In addition to those states, the Army has stored lethal chemical weapons in Indiana, Maryland, Germany and on Johnston Island. These stockpiles were not listed as defective, however. The Maryland munitions are at the Aberdeen Proving Ground.
The Pentagon has said it must keep chemical weapons to deter the Soviet Union from using them in a war. The chemical weapons in the U.S. arsenal include 105 mm, 155 mm and 8-inch artillery shells, rockets, bombs, mortars and mines. They are filled with deadly nerve or blistering agents.
The $20 million Reagan added to former president Carter's fiscal defense budget would go toward building a plant in Pine Bluff, Ark., for producing 155 mm shells with nerve agents. The chemicals would be separated in the binary shell while in storage, making the shell safe. When it is fired, the acceleration would mix the agents, producing a deadly vapor when detonated.
The Pentagon, when asked about its detoxification plans for the chemical arsenal, said "ultimate destruction will only occur if a comprehensive and verifiable treaty can be reached" with the Soviet Union.
"As a minimum," the Pentagon statement said, "a retaliatory stockpile must be retained for at least the next 10 years, the agreed time to destroy the existing stockpile. In the interim, only leaking and obsolete chemical munitions will be demilitarized."
The Defense Department "intends to reprogram sufficient funds in fiscal 1981," as well commit $4 million in fiscal 1982, to find safe ways to detoxify chemical munitions, the statement added.
The transition team's paper seemed to call for a faster, broader program than the Reagan administration has outlined. The paper said, "The inherent risk involved in allowing the deterioration of the stockpile to continue without regard to the public and environmental safety is unacceptable. Implementation of a total demilitarization program is required in the near term to begin elimination of the potential hazzard."

Intravascular brachytherapy (radiation treatment) inside arteries after angioplasty, stent insertion, or bypass grafts may prevent narrowing of the arteries or grafts. Narrowed and blocked arteries can be treated by bypassing the blockage using a graft, angioplasty (widening the artery by inserting a balloon), or inserting a stent (thin metal sleeve) to hold the artery open. However, restenosis (return of the narrowing or obstruction) often occurs within a year. Intravascular brachytherapy (IVBT) aims to prevent restenosis by the application of radiation to the affected part of the artery after the angioplasty or stent insertion.
This review included eight studies with a total of 1090 participants. All eight included studies used the femoropopliteal artery. We did not identify any studies that used the iliac arteries. All trials compared angioplasty with or without stenting plus IVBT with angioplasty with or without stenting alone. No trials were found comparing IVBT to newer technologies such as drug eluting stents, balloons, or cryoplasty. Intravascular brachytherapy resulted in increased cumulative patency, reduced restenosis, and fewer occlusions on short-term follow-ups. However, results from the eight included trials were not consistent and long-term outcomes need to be fully assessed. Therefore, more research is needed especially regarding the long-term outcomes and complications of this treatment, and the health economics and cost-effectiveness data.
The evidence for using peripheral artery brachytherapy as an adjunct to percutaneous transluminal angioplasty to maintain patency and for the prevention of restenosis in people with peripheral vascular disease is limited, mainly due to the inconsistency of assessment and reporting of clinically relevant outcomes. More data are needed on clinically relevant outcomes such as health related quality of life (HRQOL) or limb salvage and longer-term outcomes, together with comparisons with other techniques such as drug eluting balloons and stents. Adequately powered randomised controlled trials, health economics and cost-effectiveness data are required before the procedure could be recommended for widespread use.
Interventional treatment of arteries that are narrowed and obstructed by atherosclerosis involves either bypassing the blockage using a graft; widening the artery from the inside with a balloon, a procedure known as percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA); or providing a strut to hold the vessel open, known as a stent. All of these treatments are, however, limited by the high numbers that fail within a year. Intravascular brachytherapy is the application of radiation directly to the site of vessel narrowing. It is known to inhibit the processes that lead to restenosis (narrowing) of vessels and grafts after treatment. This is an update of a review first published in 2002.
To assess the efficacy of, and complications associated with, intravascular brachytherapy (IVBT) for maintaining patency after angioplasty or stent insertion in native vessels or bypass grafts of the iliac or infrainguinal arteries.
For this update the Cochrane Peripheral Vascular Diseases Group Trials Search Co-ordinator searched their Specialised Register (last searched August 2013) and CENTRAL (2013, Issue 7).
Randomised controlled trials of the use of brachytherapy as an adjunct to the endovascular treatment of people with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) or stenosed bypass grafts of the iliac or infrainguinal arteries versus the procedure without brachytherapy.
Two review authors independently assessed trial quality and two other review authors independently extracted the data. Adverse event information was collected from the trials.
Eight trials with a combined total of 1090 participants were included in this review. All included studies used the femoropopliteal artery. We did not identify any studies that used the iliac arteries. All studies compared PTA with or without stenting plus IVBT versus PTA with or without stenting alone. No trials were found comparing IVBT to technologies such as drug eluting stents or balloons, or cryoplasty. Follow-up ranged from six months to five years. The quality of the included trials was moderate with our concerns relating to the difficulty of blinding due to the nature of the procedures and the small sample sizes for some studies. Primary outcomes (patency or restenosis and need for re-intervention) were reported in the majority of the trials, but reporting at various time points and the use of multiple definitions of the outcomes by the included studies meant that not all data were available for pooling. The secondary outcomes were not reported in many of the included studies.
For brachytherapy, cumulative patency was higher at 24 months (odds ratio (OR) 2.36, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.36 to 4.10, n = 222, P = 0.002). A statistically significant difference was found for restenosis at six months (OR 0.27, 95% CI 0.11 to 0.66, n = 562, P = 0.004), 12 months (OR 0.44, 95% CI 0.28 to 0.68, n = 375, P = 0.0002) and 24 months (OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.21 to 0.78, n = 164, P = 0.007) in favour of IVBT. No difference was found after five years as measured in one study. The need for re-interventions was reported in six studies. Target lesion revascularisation was significantly reduced in trial participants treated with IVBT compared with angioplasty alone (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.27 to 0.97, P = 0.04) at six months after the interventions. No statistically significant difference was found between the procedures on the need for re-intervention at 12 and 24 months after the procedures.
A statistically significant lower number of occlusions was found in the control group at more than three months (OR 11.46, 95% CI 1.44 to 90.96, n = 363, P = 0.02) but no differences were found at less than one month nor at 12 months after the procedures making the clinical significance uncertain. Ankle brachial index was statistically significantly better for IVBT at the 12 month follow-up (mean difference 0.08, 95% CI 0.02 to 0.14, n = 100, P = 0.02) but no statistically significant differences were found at 24 hours and at six months.
Quality of life, complications, limb loss, cardiovascular deaths, death from all causes, pain free walking distance and maximum walking distance on a treadmill were similar for the two arms of the trials with no statistically significant difference found between the treatment groups.

In the Name of the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Ghost.
If we had heard what the Lord said to us
last week in the story of the blind man, we must by now have looked
attentively both at our blindness and at what we can see, when, aware of
being blind we try to look deep into our soul. At every Liturgy the
Choir sings a Psalm in which one of the verses says to us, ‘The Lord
gives wisdom to the blind’ - not because they are blind, but because
their blindness separates them from the visible, from the tangible and
allow them to go deep into the invisible, into the depth of their own
soul, and deeper than their own awareness of self find themselves face
to face with the Living God.
And today we are confronted with the
story of Zacchaeus. There are two aspects in it to which I would like to
attract you attention. On the one hand, Zacchaeus speaks to us of the
most common, the most all-pervading sin which ruins our life: it is
vanity, dependence on the judgement of people, longing for their
approval, desire to be right in their eyes whatever our conscience says,
whatever the judgement of God may be.
Saint John of the Ladder says that
vanity is arrogance in the face of God and cowardice in the face of men.
And indeed, vanity is something in us, which eats in everything we do,
into every plan, into every desire, into every hope, into everything we
attempt, like rust, or to use another image of the Lord, like moth
destroys all that could be beautiful in our actions, eats into good and
evil, but destroys all of it, leaving only very little that can stand
our own judgement, the judgement of our own conscience, and the
judgement of God, but also the judgement of the people who in the end
see us as we are, and turn away from us with sadness or with revulsion.
Vanity is not the same thing as pride.
Pride, as described by the spiritual writers, is a truly devilish
attitude of one who says, ‘I am self-sufficient, I need neither God, nor
men! Neither God’s judgement, nor men’s judgement counts for me! I am my
own law, and I despise all other judgement’. How different from vanity!
Vanity consists of our longing, our desire to be approved of whatever
the cost - and that is the terrible thing: whatever the cost! Even at
the cost of our integrity, even at the cost of our faith, of our loyalty
to God, of our loyalty to others, not to be condemned, not to be judged
And in the case of Zacchaeus, we see a
man who proved able, because he so longed to be with God, so longed to
see Him, the God come to save sinners, that he turned away, he trod
under foot his own vanity. He, a man well known in his city, a man who
was respected, a man who had a social standing, like a street boy
climbed upon a tree to see Christ because he was small of stature and
the crowd prevented him from meeting the gaze of His Saviour. How much
he must have heard of laughter, of jokes, of cat-cries! But it mattered
nothing to him; what mattered was to see Christ.
Who of us has the courage to act in a
similar way? Not to take, perhaps, that risk, but any risk? A few years
ago, a young man came to see me who complained that we had few young
men, or men altogether in our midst; and I said to him, ‘Have you
brought your friends here?’ He looked at me with horror and said, ‘I
couldn't possibly speak of my faith to my friends! They might laugh at
me!’ That was an example of the way in which we treat God, our true,
deepest convictions, our own selves, ultimately.
And then, there is another aspect in the
story of Zacchaeus. Because he had overcome vanity, because what
mattered to him at that moment was not men's judgement but only the
possibility - or otherwise - of seeing God face to face, Christ saw him
alone, in the whole crowd, called him, and came to his place.
And this is the second feature which I
want to underline, because what Zacchaeus did, was not simply to rejoice
in the coming of the Lord. He made the next step; he said to Him, ‘All I
have done evil, I will put right! I will put right tenfold!’ This is the
second condition of our salvation as presented in today's Gospel: it is
not enough to shake away for one moment our vanity, our dependence upon
people's judgement, to stand for one moment before the eyes of God, and
then go away happily and satisfied - no! This only a beginning! And the
real thing begins at the moment when we say to the Lord, ‘All that I
have done wrong, within my power but without fear, without greed, I will
restore and repair’.
And so this is what we are confronted with this week. We
must look deep into ourselves and ask ourselves, ‘How much does vanity
destroy my life? How much does it eat into good and evil? How much does
it destroy the beauty that is woven into my soul?’ And secondly, if we
see, however little of it - turn to God, turn to life decisively, and
start putting right. But not lightly, not just enough to be satisfied
with ourselves, but radically, ruthlessly, courageously, because the
question is, ‘Shall I become one of the followers of Christ, or shall I
have a passing emotion that will die within me, and shall I be again
where I was - vain, that is empty, worth of nothing?’ Amen.

Pandora just took a $30 million loan ahead of its IPO. That's on top of $86 million it took in venture capital and accrued unpaid dividends. Luckily for Pandora's users, the indispensable internet radio service can't be killed, debts notwithstanding.
Sure, Pandora lost nearly $7 million in the first quarter of this year thanks to licensing fees and a staff roster that grew 20 percent in three months, as the New York Post reports. At that rate, the $30 million Pandora borrowed from its IPO underwriters JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley won't last long. But hopefully Pandora will raise enough money from its initial public stock offering to pay back the $30 million it is borrowing, plus another $30 million in accrued unpaid dividends it owes other investors, plus whatever cushion it needs to put in the bank. LinkedIn, after all, just raised $352 million in its IPO, despite selling a far less compelling product.
Besides, it has proven impossible to drive a stake through Pandora's heart. The Oakland, California based startup has been plugging away since the late 1990s, surviving the first dot-com bust in part by begging employees to work for free (for months at a time) and maxing out 11 credit cards. And it has stared down several royalty and regulatory issues that threatened to destroy its business model. It is like the internet's cockroach. A very intelligent, delightful sounding cockroach.

I could have sworn it was real. I wish it was.
Everything was blue in color. I checked my phone and the New York Times had announced that Hillary Clinton won the election.
I wasn’t enthused, but I was relieved.
Then I woke up. Nothing was blue. It was pitch black.
Usually, when the dogs hear me get up, they cry to go outside.
They didn’t cry on Wednesday. Everything was silent. I knew what had happened.
Donald Trump is like a sugar pill. It seems and feels like something’s happening, but really there’s nothing there. It’s a sham.
Except a lot of us aren’t aware of it. It somehow feels like a cure.
But it won’t last. And the people who really need the help are the ones that are going to suffer the most.
It’s a shame because no one really deserves to suffer. Navigating life is hard enough.
But what can we do? That’s the question we must ask ourselves for the next 4 years. What can we do?
By we, I mean you and me and everyone. Rather than depend on some establishment to fix our lives, what can we do to begin to repair ourselves and each other?
Trump isn’t going to do it. Hillary wouldn’t have been able to do it either.
Good presidents put band-aids on bullet holes. Bad presidents pick at scabs before the skin gets a chance to heal.
It’s a lose-lose situation when we look for something outside of ourselves to heal our pain.
We’re all walking around with broken hearts. Our cars are nice, our homes are beautiful, but our hearts are shattered.
We’re angry and sad and everyone else is the problem. The “others” are the issue.
But I’m not so sure that that’s true. Yes, Trump is bound to screw some things up and ignorantly inspire more ignorance, but we don’t have to succumb to it.
He’s a disconnected old fart, we shouldn’t expect much. This is more disappointing than surprising.
So can we use this as an opportunity to face reality head on, rather than run, hide, complain and ignore?
Can we use this as inspiration to stand strong and stand together with open minds and loving wisdom?
It’s okay to be pissed off or upset for a while, the world is a little jacked up right now. But it’s not a bad place. Don’t let this dissuade you from being you.
Once the sugar high wears off, we can’t just go back to our regularly scheduled program.
We have to continue to smile at our neighbors. We have to continue to comfort our friends. We have to continue to act with kind intentions.
Because I’d really love to see the love grow.
The sun always shines again. No cloud lasts forever.
Be sweet and pass it on. Maybe then we’ll bridge the gap and realize that nothing was between us in the first place.
It was all an illusion.
