The immediate-past Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, will appear before a Federal High Court in Abuja over his role in the payment of N2.5bn by the National Broadcasting Commission for the Federal Government Digital Switch-Over programme.
According to a statement signed by the spokesperson for the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission, Rasheedat Okoduwa, the ICPC had filed 12 counts before Justice Folashade Ogunbanjo-Giwa, against the Director General of NBC, Modibbo Kawu, the Chairman of Pinnacle Communications Limited, Lucky Omoluwa, and the Chief Operating Officer of the company, Dipo Onifade.
He added that the NBC DG misled the former minister into approving government funds to a private company.
The ICPC is also prosecuting Kawu over alleged abuse of office and money laundering.
The commission said, “The former minister’s involvement had come under questioning following discovery by the ICPC during investigations, that a government White Paper that governs the execution of the DSO programme was allegedly flouted by the head of the NBC.
“Mohammed had however admitted in a statement to the commission that he was misled by Kawu, as opined in court by a witness from the ICPC, Osanato Olugbemi. Olugbemi, led in evidence by counsel for the ICPC, Henry Emore, also told the court that the payment of N2.5bn from the NBC to Pinnacle Communications Limited as seed grant was suspicious because only government-owned company was approved to benefit from the grant according to the White Paper.
“The court also heard that the processes that led to the final payment of the fund to the private company were shrouded in secrecy as revealed by the minutes of an NBC emergency board management meeting where issues of carriage fees owed Pinnacle and not seed grant was discussed.”
The statement said 47 suspicious transactions were originated by the chairman of Pinnacle Communications, Omoluwa, immediately after the receipt of the funds on June 2, 2017.
“The transactions include payments of N363m to one Idowu Olatunde, N274.4m to one James Segun and N127 m to Onifade. Onifade explained that he received the money as legal fee he rendered to the company.
“A Bureau de change operator, Salisu Daura, who also testified in court, said he received N167m in two installments of N97m and N70m. Daura added that the sums were converted into $265,000 and $195,735 at the rate of N360 to US dollar, and handed the cash to one Alhaji Sabo, supposedly on behalf of Pinnacle Communications,” the commission noted.

A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered status quo on the withdrawal of operating licence of the Daar Communications PLC over alleged breach of broadcasting code. Justice Inyang Ekwo on Friday ordered the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), the Federal Ministry of Information and Culture, the Attorney General of the Federation to appear on Thursday, June 13 to show cause why the motion on notice challenging the action of the regulatory agency should not be granted.
In an ex parte application brought by its lawyer, Mike Ozekhome (SAN), Daar PLC operators of African Independent Television (AIT), Raypower FM, Faaji FM and Daarsat had on Thursday asked the court to order status quo ante bellum pending the determination of the main suit.
The NBC had in a letter dated May 27, 2019 accused Daar of breaching the Nigeria’s Broadcasting Code with its Kakaaki and other programmes and subsequently withdrew its licence.
In the suit against the NBC, the Federal Ministry of Information and Culture, the Attorney General of the Federation, Daar claimed that it had since the licence of its television and radio stations been conducting its operations in line with Section 22 of the 1999 Constitution. It therefore asks the court to make an order
“restraining the defendants from blocking, jamming, stopping removing from air and/or interfering with the air waves of the plaintiff/applicant (Daar Plc) in any way and manner howsoever called from invading the premises of the plaintiff/applicant (Daar Plc) or closing down, viet armis, the said premises, its operations or broadcast services, pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice filed along with this application.”
Enumerating grounds for the action, Daar Plc said the defendants had on April 16 in a Gestapo-style invaded its premises and pulled down two buildings and gates leading to its operational office in Asokoro, Abuja worth millions of naira. (Daily Trust)

The announced suspension of the practising license of DAAR communication by the Nigeria Broadcasting Commission, NBC, is generating reactions from well-meaning Nigerians who see the action of the NBC as a calculated attempt by the FG to gag the media.
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the just-concluded presidential election, Atiku Abubakar has added his voice to the development. Atiku said he “received with trepidation reports of the withdrawal of the licenses of AIT and Ray Power owned by DAAR Group.
“The Gen. Buhari administration needs to be reminded that freedom of the press and of speech is not only fundamental to democracy, but it is also guaranteed by the constitution.
“Nothing untoward must be done to roll back our hard-earned democracy.”
Speaking via his twitter handle, Alhaji Atiku said “If at this time, we stand by as the Press loses its independence, there will be little to differentiate us from a dictatorship. This should not happen.
“I am a lifelong Democrat and throughout my political life, I have championed the principles of Separation of Powers. The Legislature has been challenged. The Judiciary has been tackled.” (Journalist101)

The Nigeria Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has suspended the license of Dar Communication Plc, promoter of AIT television and RAY POWER FM until further notice.
The withdrawal of their license was announced by the Director General of NBC, Modibbo Kawu on Thursday evening.
He said the action was taken for failure of the broadcasting station to abide by the broadcasting code.
AIT and the regulatory body, NBC has been at loggerheads over one of the segments of a programme on AIT “kakaki social” which the regulatory body said is promoting anti government materials.
Below is the press briefing from the NBC regarding to the indefinite shut down of AIT.
PRESS BRIEFING ON SUSPENSION OF LICENCE – DAAR COMMUNICATIONS, HELD TODAY 6TH JUNE, 2019 AT THE NBC HEADQUARTERS IN ABUJA.
Following monitoring reports and complaints from concerned Nigerians about the broadcast contents of Daar Communications Plc’s AIT/Raypower broadcast stations, the NBC have over the last 2 years summoned on several occasions management of the company to address issues regarding the operations of AIT/Raypower with the company, particularly, Political Platform and Kakaaki aired on AIT.
In one of our meetings, held on 2nd June, 2017, the Commission expressed its disappointment with the way and manner Hate Speech, divisive and inciting comments are applied in discussion of national issues in breach of the provisions of the NBC Act and Broadcast Code.
Again, on 15th August, 2017, it became imperative to invite the company for yet another meeting on almost same issues. Furthermore, while addressing another meeting on 7th February, 2018 we highlighted issues of concern to the Commission which indicated that the company had been breaching the provisions of Sections 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 of the broadcast Code. The company’s delegates in their response promised to abate the breaches and comply with the law.
However, on October 18, 2018, the Commission was disturbed with the manner in which social media issues became part of the mainstream media unedited on AIT/Raypower, and was constrained to issue a generic letter to all broadcast stations on
the need to exercise caution in the use of user generated content from the social media knowing how volatile and misleading the social media has become. The management of Daar Communication Plc thereafter took to the social media to display our official correspondences.
Recently, the Commission’s monitoring reports on AIT/Raypower indicate the use of divisive comments accredited to the segment of “Kakaaki”, tagged, “Kakaaki Social”, where inciting comments like, “Nigeria is cursed, we declare independent state of Niger Delta”, “Nigeria irritates me”, “this country is gradually Islamizing” and other similar slogans are used without editorial control in breach of the broadcast Code. We were therefore constrained to issue Daar Communication letters of warning dated May 27th, 2019.
We also observed from monitoring reports that a documentary on the Presidential Election Tribunal, a pending election petition matter aired on AIT on Wednesday and Thursday, 22nd and 23rd May, 2019 without regard to the provisions of the Broadcast Code. The Commission, in line with its regulatory powers again cautioned AIT in another letter also dated 27th May, 2019.
However, instead of making amends, the management of Daar Communications Plc resorted to the use of media propaganda against the regulator. Even the letters from the NBC were posted on social media platforms.
Needless to state that Daar Communications have over the years turned themselves into a bad example of how a professional broadcast outfit should not be run.
In their relationship with the NBC, Daar Communications carry on, as if it is beyond the regulatory direction of the Commission. They don’t pay their licence fees as and when due.
Its broadcast is patently partisan and one sided and deliberately inciting and heating the polity. The management of the Company has created the habit of using the channel to fight its personal battles contrary to the statutory requirements of the law.
SHUT DOWN ORDER
Today the 6th of June, 2019, AIT/Rapower embarked on use of inflammatory, divisive, inciting broadcasts, and media propaganda against the government and, the NBC for performing its statutory functions of regulating the broadcast industry in Nigeria.
Consequently, after several meetings with management of Daar Communications Plc and many letters of warning. The NBC, today 6th June, 2019 took a decision to suspend the licence of Daar Communications Plc for failure to abide by the Commission’s directives, the provisions of the NBC Act Cap N11
Laws of the Federation of Nigeria and the Nigeria Broadcasting Code.
This decision is based on the provisions of Section 10 of the Third Schedule of the NBC Act Cap N11 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004, which states as follows:
(d) where in the opinion of the Commission the station has been used in a manner detrimental to national interest.
(g) where there is wilful or repeated failure to operate
substantially as set forth in the licence
(h), where there is wilful or repeated violation or wilful or repeated failure to observe any provision of this Act or any rule or regulation of the Commission authorised by this Act or by a treaty ratified by the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
(i), where there is violation of or failure to observe any cease and desist order issued by the Commission;
(k), where a provision of the Nigeria Broadcasting Code has been seriously breached; and
The SHUT DOWN order is until further notice.

Very INFORMATIVE. Useful to ALL of US.
What about grapeseed oil? I have seen articles suggest that this should be at the top of the list for healthy oils.
This is a great article! Thank you. It is so important for our doctors to consider our diet as first line of defense in treating what ails us. My husband is slender, strong and works out regularly, but has suffered for years with arthritis and elevated PSA together with the issues that come with a high PSA. So, 2 years ago, he started studying how nutrition effects these things and found a lot of reading on low-inflammatory diets out there – Starting with Dr. Mark Hyman’s book, “Food! What the Heck Should I Eat?” We are also applying these principles to my nutritional plan to reduce my inflammatory bowel disease. It is really working for both of us! Doctors need to learn the importance of this in medical school, so great job Harvard Medical School!
Thank you for this information. Does iodine help RA? I have been trying to eat the right foods but now see I am missing some of the good options. I am 95 yrs old with RA of the diaphragm. This has caused asthma. Again thank you for the help!
Nice article. About pro inflammatory foods, I have always read, that Omega 6, is a powerful pro inflammatory and most nuts and seeds, are incredible loaded with Omega 6. Also oils extracted from corn and other seeds, do so. Not to mention peanut whose oil is about 99% Omega 6. On the other hand, Omega 3 is an anti inflammatory fat. Western diets are incredible rich in Omega 6 and poor in Omega 3 consumption.
Exceptions to these Omega 6 loaded fats and seeds are, Flaxseed and a still little known in North America, peruvian nut called Inka nut, wich oil is up to 53% Omega 3.
It would be very welcomed, ir someone can confirm the information I have, about the inflammatory effect of Omega 6 oils
very nice post, I really loved it , appreciate the article you have posted.The data suggest a prudent approach of both limiting pro-inflammatory foods and adopting an anti-inflammatory diet may provide an effective strategy for CVD prevention
Interesting topic and information. My mom used to warm me not to eat shrimps if I’m waiting for a wound to heal, mangoes or sweet rice made her joints hurt and that I should stay away from them. I never quite understood the scientific reason of it. After reading your research article, I understand more and will pay more attention to what feed the family. I like the table and tips, concise and not overly generalized that would make me think I know I know and put it down and not reading it. Glad to see my favorite tea and coffee make the good list! Do you know what causes the bitter taste in vegetables like in kale, collard greens, and broccoli? I was taught in my family I should blanch those vegetables to get rid of some sort of “toxins” in them before I cook them. But again, I don’t exactly what. Maybe someone can look into some good vegetables and bad vegetables?
If Meat is pro inflammatory then why do people who go on 100% carnivore diets Inflammation markers go down ?
Red meat is not inflammatory. It is consumed mostly in fast food restaurants with bread, fries and colas which are inflammatory. So epidemiological study find these people more unhealthy. If you eat grass fed steak with salad that is different story.

text: The composition of the vaginal microbiome is associated with pregnancy complications. However, it’s unclear whether the microbiome of the uterine lining (endometrium) is related to specific outcomes in patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). To find out, researchers recently analyzed the association of the endometrial microbiome with live birth, biochemical pregnancy, clinical miscarriage, and lack of pregnancy in 342 ethnically diverse infertile patients across 3 continents. 16S rRNA sequencing of endometrial fluid and biopsies before embryo transfer revealed that dysbiosis was related to poor reproductive outcomes. Specifically, increased proportions of pathogenic bacteria such as Gardnerella, Streptococcus, Atopobium, and Klebsiella were associated with a lack of live birth, while dominance of Lactobacillus bacteria was associated with live birth. Lactobacillus may have helped prevent pathogens from taking up residence rather than exerting direct beneficial effects, as an absence of any bacteria also appeared to be linked to good outcomes. Although further studies are needed to clarify the mechanisms, the findings suggest that the endometrial microbiota composition prior to embryo transfer is a helpful biomarker that can be used to predict and improve the outcomes of assisted reproduction.

This is Kish Island of Iran. A very beautiful place in Persian Gulf. This place is a must see and the main vacation spot for all the Persians and majority of tourists that visit Iran. It is only 1 hour 20 minutes flight from Tehran. In this Island there are lots of luxurious beautiful hotels and resorts and world class shopping malls, architecture and amenities. Also they have some historic parts in the island too. Kish is always under construction making place for greater things to come in it. I should warn you taht it can be very humid and hot in summer time but it's one of the most fascinating places that I have ever been too and if you ever go to iran you should visit this place.
Iran is such a wonderful, beautiful country with such an incredibly rich culture and history.
The tragedy of it all is that it is ruled by an awful government and it's ideology is a terrible perversion of Islam.
Also, very sadly people in the West have a one dimensional and negative image of this country as a result of politics.
I hope one day Iran will be truly open to the outside world and tourists will be able to discover the treasures of this great country.
First of all, I'd like to inform you that Bush has no control over the american media. Unlike in other countries were goveremnt control is absolute. I don't recall Tehran ever being presented as "crappy". Quite frankly, I've never seen the city of Tehran cast in a bad light. I've always known it to be a beautiful city, as the pictures prove. Nice to live in the west huh?
The Darius Grand Hotel is considered a "7 Star" and there is a new 7 star hotel currently being built on Kish Island. The snorkelling and scuba diving around Kish are also world class because Kish is surrounded by corals and unique marine life. The beaches are really nice too, soft white sand and clear warm ocean.
These are the pictures of Persian Models for the Tehran fashion week. Most of their clothes show original Persian style clothing and are very popular and nice. Also I have posted some random pics of people.

About Survival Knives
When your life depends on them, survival knives are produced to handle difficult problems. They are hard use tools and can be used for cutting, prying, wood carving, self defense, and lots of other tasks. The Poshland Knives TRH-001, Custom Handmade Damascus Steel Tracker Knife – Exotic Wood Handle can possibly be used as a survival knife in certain situations.
Parts of a Knife
The main pieces of the knife are the blade, hilt, handle, tang, and pommel or butt. These key parts can be further broken down into their sub parts. The blade consists of the tip or point, edge, spine, and bevels. The hilt is the handguard situated in between the blade and the grip. The handle consists of the scales (the grippy sides of the handle) and scale securing screws. The tang is the piece of metal that runs the complete length of the knife from pommel to tip. Lastly, the pommel or butt is at the rear of the knife (end toward the knife holder when held typically in hand).
Fixed Blade VS Folding Survival Knives
There are several assorted types of knives consisting of fixed blades and folding knives. Common fixed blade knives include full-length camping knives, survival knives, combat knives, and cooking knives. Folding knives are more compact than fixed blade knives and quickly secured in a pocket for every-day-carry (EDC). The technique of how the blade folds into the handle makes it a practical alternative for smaller blades. Some folding knives have lockouts that help keep the blade in position when unfolded. This simulates a fixed blade while keeping the benefits of a folder. Keep in mind that lockouts are mechanical and can fail if extreme pressure is applied to the folding knife blade.
Poshland Knives Knife Blade Care and Upkeep
Poshland Knives knives must be taken care of and maintained appropriately to optimize their lifespan as a cutting tool. Try to keep the knife blade dry and away from water whenever possible. Blade maintenance consists of periodically honing the edge with a grinder, whetstone, or diamond sharpener and rubbing the blade down with a light coat of oil. Make sure the edge is devoid of any nicks or chips and deburr any defects.

Many states, regions, and areas have policies about possessing knives and bladed weapons. Some of these weapon related laws might apply to the Poshland Knives TRH-001, Custom Handmade Damascus Steel Tracker Knife – Exotic Wood Handle.

When carrying a blade, there are a few basic guidelines you can follow.

For fixed blade knives, carry them on your belt when you are working outside, backpacking, fishing, or out adventuring in the outdoors.
For folding blade knives, once again take care of possessing folding blade lengths over 3 inches concealed on your body. If your region or state mandates it, look into getting a CCW license. Knives which use assisted opening abilities or automatic opening knives are usually limited.
Take care carrying knives in locations around federal government buildings, institutions, and public gatherings. A lot of special events like sporting events, county fairs, and performances do not permit knives of any kind and security will confiscate them upon entry.

Chris Brown may be facing jail time due to his accident last week in LA. Chris hit a black Merces from the back as he was driving his Range with Ms. Coochie Tran by his side. Well it appears that Chris didn’t provide the driver with his drivers license nor proper insurance which is a probation violation….
since that Rihanna asz whooping he dished out, sh!t just been down hill for the singer.
According to Tmz Chris Brown allegedly refused to give the driver he rear-ended his driver’s license number and we’re told he also gave the woman incorrect insurance info.
Chris Brown is on probation for beating Rihanna, and one of the conditions is that he obey all laws. If there’s probable cause to believe he broke the law by leaving the scene without fully disclosing information required by law, his probation could be violated and Chris could go to prison for up to 4 years.
Mediajuicejoint- All he had to do was wait for the police since he didn’t want to exchange information for security reason and be on his way, he need a damn intervention
Death Threats were made against famed singer Chris Brown, but that didn’t stop Breezy who was at full throttle as he kicked ass dancing to “Fine China”. After getting death threats many would have assumed he would lay low and sit this performance out, but it ain’t over to the fat lady sings, and hell he could have used her vocals last night.
Calls were placed to Chris Brown’s attorney Mark Geragos’s office threatening Chris Brown’s life. Geragos notified LAPD immediately, filed a report, and provided them with the tapes.
Chris was in good spirits even though he went home empty handed, that’s right…. Chris lost Top R&B Artist and Top R&B Album to none other than his off and on boo Rihanna. Chris has been in the sh!t house lately from the Rihanna incident, Frank Ocean Incident, twitter meltdowns, and his ongoing feud with his neighbors over his art work plastered on his damn wall.
He may be off the wall, but he can dance his asz off ….check it out here
Chris Brown admits to still loving his ex boo thang Ms. Coochie Tran during an interview with The Breakfast Club, but what he forgot to mention is, that love is from a distance due to bad girl Rih Rih demands.
During the interview he threw out all kinds of subliminals about their agape love, and if I walked away with any insight of their timely convenient relationship he made one thing crystal clear.
Breezy is committed to their friendship because Ms. Coochie supported him throughout his darkest hours…..and what did she get for that boys and girls …….a new clothing line ……hook and sinker.
Chris Brown joins Matt Lauer on NBC’s “Today” show to discuss the release of new song and video. Also Breezy talks openly about his relationship with Rihanna, and tells the world he’s a Changed man.
Breezy is truly doing his thing with the release of new single “Fine China.” But he didn’t stop there, he also has made a mini movie video to go along with the song. This up beat song makes you just want to get up and dance, while also following the story plot with some dancing style fighting.
New release “Fine China” is set to be on Breezy’s upcoming album X, which he explained on the show how he wanted to take a Quincy approach to the music.
Chris Brown is quite the well rounded artist, he can sing, dance his asz off, rap a little, and we all know he can fight , but it’s one more thing that he does and does it very well ……… tagging the walls with his Graffiti skills.
Chris Brown just BLEW OUR MINDS!!! ‘Cause the singer put his graffiti skills on display on a wall in Florida … and dude’s got some serious talent.
Brown grabbed a spray can and went to town on a building in Miami (we’re guessing he was contracted to be there, ’cause if he wasn’t, it could be considered vandalism and he could be arrested … probation violation … jail … court drama … etc.)
Photogs snapped pics as Brown tagged the canvas … and you gotta trust us on this one, the finished product is pretty awesome.
Chris Brown is wiling out, as he’s at the center of some drama all the damn time, it all boils down to his immaturity and lack of restraint. Reports have surfaced surrounding guess who ???? Our favorite rapper/singer we love to hate ……..Chris Breezy and his recent outburst against Drake.
Chris was apparently partying at the Emerson Theater in Hollywood and Drake’s new banger “started from the bottom now we here” came on. Club goers claim that Chris demanded a mic, stood on a chair, and said ”The DJ can play this s**t, but I want you all to know… F**k Drake!”is this true………. who knows, but I highly doubt it.
See Chris only barks at valet guy over as he puts it funky ten dollars, but big up Meek Mill in a strip club? I am a fan of Chris Brown’s music but I will not and can not cosign stupidity and bullying. Where I’m from a man stands up all of the time, not pick and choose when and who to stand up against. Chris have all of the news outlet calling him a thug over the valet incident…. to me it’s more like a rich snotty nose kid throwing tantrums with body guard back up.
Chris needs to cool his hot asz down and play his position….RnB dude not a thug.
Chris Brown can’t keep his asz out of trouble. He was involved in a trivial b*tch fight with Frank Ocean over a parking spot….damn can’t we all just get along.
The Law was called but when they arrived on scene Chris Brown didn’t stick around, he pulled a Drake move…..but later on, uploaded the pic below to his Instagram.
According to Tmz Chris Brown was involved in an all-out brawl with Frank Ocean Sunday night, and sources connected with Chris insist Ocean started it.
Chris Brown says,”Working on my album. Not working on negativity. Focus on feeding ya family. Bullshit will forever be in the shadows.”
Chris was at Westlake Studio in the L.A. area listening to one of the artists he represents. The sources say as Chris went to leave, Frank Ocean and his crew blocked Chris from leaving. The sources say Frank said, “This is my studio, this is my parking spot.”
We’re told Chris went to shake Frank’s hand … and that’s when one of Frank’s people attacked Chris. Sources connected with Chris say one of Chris’ friends jumped in front and hit Frank’s friend.
Sources connected with Chris say Frank then came at Chris … Chris pushed him away and they started brawling.
The police were called and are on scene now.
Mjj says, Real life imitating twitter check out what the victim, yes (that’s what the po-po is calling him) Frank Ocean tweeted after the fight.

#3 - UCLA
If the Rose Bowl isn’t college football’s most storied venue, it’s got to be in the top five. Combine this with a lovely setting and a ‘just right’ road trip distance, and you’ve got yourself the makings of a mighty fine road trip.
You might ask, if you hate Los Angeles so much, how can you rate the UCLA trip so highly? Well, I DO hate LA in general, but I rather like Pasadena. It’s a rather pleasant little town with a discernible city center, an upscale main drag with ‘Route 66′ roots, and an incredibly famous football stadium surrounded by a golf course.
One of the things that makes this trip rate above USC is that fact that Pasadena is on the ‘top’ of LA, meaning that if you’re driving down from the Bay Area, you’ll run into a minimum of LA traffic in getting there. Not none, but certainly less. Yeah, it’s pretty much the same drive as USC, but with a less frustrating ending. Another aspect that rates it above USC is that fact that I don’t feel unsafe leaving my car unattended, or walking around alone at night, probably stumbling back drunk from a bar.
When you’re not at the game or your hotel, you’ll probably be spending most of your time on Colorado Avenue, which was, at one time, part of Route 66, although almost all of the 50’s nostalgia has been razed to make way for a Banana Republic, an Apple store, and a Hooters, among other shopping destinations. There’s also a Cheesecake Factory location here, which if you’re willing to wait for a table (they don’t take reservations), I highly recommend. In fact, I’ll go on record as saying that their Bacon Cheeseburger is the best hamburger I’ve ever eaten.
Post-game partying can definitely be found here, too (see the aforementioned Hooters — very tasty Buffalo wings), but it’s not quite the scene one would expect after a major football event; most of the UCLA fans will have already left, either headed back to Westwood or otherwise just trying to beat the traffic (it can take a long time to funnel 40,000 cars onto the city streets of Pasadena). Also, if the game is a night contest, be sure to get your grub on soon after the game — it can be hard to find food here late at night.
The Rose Bowl itself is a great venue, and I’m especially a fan of its classic bowl shape (hence the name), which means that even if you’re stuck way over in the corner or whatever, you are still afforded a decent view of the game. Why don’t they build more stadiums like this? I couldn’t say. I can say, however, that the Rose Bowl and Memorial Stadium are two of my favorites, in part because there simply isn’t a bad seat in the house. Come see why Sports Illustrated named it the #1 college sports venue in the country.
Sunny SoCal weather, 100,000 fans, and college football. That’s what I call a pretty sweet way to spend a Saturday.
Reasons to visit the Rose Bowl:
- It’s an absolute classic. A must see for the college football fan.
- Los Angeles is the perfect distance for a road trip.
- Nothing beats sticking it to the SoCal schools.
- No matter which band is playing, you get to hear the same fight song.
Reasons to shun the southern part of this state:
- You’re turned off by smog and tap water that tastes ‘interesting’.
- You hate driving in LA.
- Parking can be a mess. Two years ago, I parked on a golf course. Yes, on the grass, as in right near the fairway.
- There are other interesting things to do in LA, but Pasadena’s not near any of those. Yay, more driving!
Because it’s fairly close and cheap, I make this trip every other year. I’d love to make it twice this year, but that’s going to depend on whether our Bears can finally dethrone USC.

The ‘Everything to Everybody’ project is developing a £1 million plan to unlock the world’s first great people’s Shakespeare Library for all.
Birmingham’s historic Shakespeare Memorial Library is the first, oldest and largest Shakespeare collection in any public library in the world and is housed in the Library of Birmingham. It contains over 100,000 treasures from a First Folio to music scores, costume designs, artworks by Picasso and texts in 93 different languages.
All this belongs to all the people of the city.
Birmingham’s Shakespeare collection is the most substantial legacy of a pioneering effort to ‘give everything to everybody’, which helped to put nineteenth-century Birmingham on the map as the most progressive city in the modern world.
The National Lottery Heritage Fund has awarded the ‘Everything to Everybody’ project £32,700 of development funding to help progress plans to revive this great cultural resource and they would love to share their ideas with you and hear about how you might like to be involved.
Full funding would enable a wide range of ambitious and inclusive activity in Birmingham. Starting in May 2020, it would include workshops for schools and education groups, a First Folio tour, Family Days, exhibitions with community partners and a festival to coincide with the Commonwealth Games in 2022.
During this exciting Development Phase, they are keen to start conversations with potential project partners interested in collaborating.
But at this stage, the best way for potential collaborators to get involved is to attend one of the free information evenings at the Library of Birmingham. During the evening you will visit the Shakespeare Memorial Library and see items from the Shakespeare collection. You will meet members of the project team, share ideas for activity, learn how you can get involved and help identify ways to take the project out to Birmingham’s communities.
There are two information evenings:
Thursday 11 April or Friday 26 April from 6-8pm,
at the Library of Birmingham [meet in the foyer].

Effect of the Substrate on the Structural Properties of Cu2ZnSnS4 Thin Films Synthesized by Electrodeposition
The quaternary compound Cu2ZnSnS4 semiconductor have gained much attention in recent years due to its promising optical properties1. Moreover, low cost, cheap, earth-abundant as well as non-toxicity of its elements1,2. In addition, this semiconductor is considered as one of the potential absorber materials for the next-generation solar cells3. The aim of the present work is to deposit the CZTS thin films on the ITO and the FTO substrates by the one-step electrodeposition method followed by the sulphurization. The influence of the ITO and FTO on structural properties of the elaborated CZTS film was then investigated.

Northrop Grumman tested a guidance system for this
Northrop Grumman has completed ground testing of technologies for transmitting energy from satellites to the surface of the planet. We are talking about a guidance system for the beam, through which energy will be transmitted. The test was conducted in one of Northrop Grumman’s test chambers in Baltimore.
In the future, it is planned to launch a prototype, which will be ready by 2025. So far, nothing has been announced about the timing of the full launch of such a system.
In 2018, the Air Force Research Laboratory was awarded a $100 million contract by Northrop Grumman. As part of the contact, it is planned to create a full-fledged prototype of the space power system. This will provide energy to remote military bases.
There are similar projects in China too, they want to demonstrate a prototype there in 2028. The EU has its own project called Solaris, but there are no deadlines yet.

In the article “The 3 Best Plastic Dog Bowls Reviewed by Beaconpet”, you’ll discover the top options for plastic dog bowls that have been thoroughly tested and evaluated by the beaconpet team. Plastic dog bowls are highly popular for their versatility in shape and size, making them suitable for all kinds of dogs. Not only are they affordable, but they also come in a wide range of colors and styles, allowing you to find the perfect match for your furry friend. However, it’s important to note that plastic dog bowls may not be suitable for chewers and can be prone to moving around during mealtime. Throughout their testing process, the team considered factors such as suitability, durability, mobility, and capacity. In the end, the JW Pet Skid Stop Bowl stood out as the ultimate choice due to its affordability, availability in different sizes, and rubber bottom that prevents sliding.
The 3 Best Plastic Dog Bowls Reviewed by Beaconpet
When it comes to choosing the right dog bowl for your furry friend, there are so many options to consider. Plastic dog bowls have gained popularity among dog owners for a variety of reasons. In this article, we will review the three best plastic dog bowls, as tested and reviewed by the Beaconpet team.
Plastic Dog Bowls: Why They’re Popular
Plastic dog bowls have become a popular choice mainly due to their versatility. Plastic is a material that can be easily molded into various shapes and sizes, which is perfect for accommodating different dog breeds and sizes. Whether you have a tiny Chihuahua or a large Great Dane, there is a plastic dog bowl out there that will suit your dog’s needs.
Another reason why plastic dog bowls are so popular is their affordability. Compared to other materials such as stainless steel or ceramic, plastic dog bowls are much more budget-friendly. This makes it easier for dog owners to provide their pets with a quality bowl without breaking the bank.
Plastic dog bowls also offer a wide range of colors and styles, allowing dog owners to choose a bowl that matches their home decor or their pet’s personality. Whether you prefer a bright and vibrant color or a subtle and elegant design, you can find a plastic dog bowl that fits your preferences.
Finally, plastic dog bowls are incredibly easy to clean. They can be washed by hand or placed in the dishwasher for a thorough cleaning. The non-porous surface of plastic bowls prevents bacteria and odors from lingering, ensuring that your dog always has a clean eating surface.
Advantages of Plastic Dog Bowls
In addition to their popularity, plastic dog bowls also come with a set of advantages that make them a great choice for many dog owners. One of the main advantages is their durability. Plastic bowls are designed to withstand everyday use, even by the most enthusiastic eaters. They are resistant to cracking, chipping, and breaking, ensuring that they will last for a long time.
Another advantage is the mobility of plastic dog bowls. Due to their lightweight nature, plastic bowls are easy to move around. This can be particularly helpful if you have a designated feeding area for your dog but need to clean the area or rearrange the space occasionally. Plastic dog bowls can be easily picked up and relocated without any hassle.
Plastic dog bowls also come in a variety of sizes, making them suitable for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Whether you have a small toy breed or a large working breed, you can find a plastic dog bowl that matches your dog’s needs. This versatility allows you to provide your dog with the perfect-sized bowl, ensuring their comfort while eating or drinking.
Disadvantages of Plastic Dog Bowls
While plastic dog bowls have many advantages, it’s important to consider their disadvantages as well. One of the main drawbacks of plastic bowls is that they are not suitable for dogs who are prone to chewing. Some dogs have a tendency to chew on their bowls, especially if they are feeling anxious or bored. The plastic material can be easily damaged or destroyed by persistent chewers, leading to the need for frequent bowl replacements.
Another disadvantage of plastic dog bowls is their tendency to move around during eating. This can be particularly problematic for dogs who are enthusiastic eaters or have a tendency to push their bowls around. The lightweight nature of plastic bowls makes them more likely to slide across smooth surfaces, potentially causing spills and messes.
Additionally, some dog owners have concerns about plastic bowls leaching chemicals into the food or water. While most modern plastic dog bowls are made from BPA-free materials, it’s still important to choose a reputable brand and ensure that the bowl is labeled as safe for food use. If you have any concerns about the safety of plastic bowls, it’s always a good idea to consult with your veterinarian.
Testing Criteria Used by Beaconpet
To determine the three best plastic dog bowls, the Beaconpet team conducted extensive testing on a variety of factors. The team focused on four key criteria: suitability, durability, mobility, and capacity.
Suitability refers to how well the plastic dog bowls accommodate different dog breeds and sizes. The team tested the bowls with dogs of different sizes to ensure that they were suitable for a wide range of breeds. They also evaluated the bowls’ design and shape to determine if they were ergonomically designed for comfortable eating.
Durability was another important factor in the testing process. The team subjected the plastic dog bowls to rigorous use to assess their ability to withstand everyday wear and tear. They looked for signs of cracking, chipping, or breaking to determine the bowls’ overall durability.
Mobility was evaluated by observing how easily the plastic dog bowls moved around during eating. The team tested the bowls on various surfaces to see if they stayed in place or slid around. They also took into consideration how easy it was to pick up and move the bowls when needed.
Capacity was the final factor considered by the testing team. They analyzed the size and depth of the bowls to ensure that they could hold an adequate amount of food or water for a dog’s needs. They also took into account any available size options to ensure that there were options for both small and large dogs.
The Testing Team
The Beaconpet testing team consisted of four dogs, each with their own unique characteristics. Bella, a small Terrier mix, represented the toy breed category. Max, a Labrador Retriever, was the representative for the medium-sized breeds. Rosie, a Great Dane, represented the large breed category. And finally, Cooper, a mixed breed dog, provided additional insights from a dog with average characteristics.
Each member of the testing team had their own preferences and requirements when it came to choosing the best plastic dog bowl. The team observed each dog’s behavior and eating habits while using the different plastic bowls to gather valuable insights into the bowls’ performance.
1. JW Pet Skid Stop Bowl
The JW Pet Skid Stop Bowl was chosen as the best all-around plastic dog bowl by the Beaconpet team. This bowl stood out for its affordability, availability in different sizes, and rubber bottom that prevents sliding. Bella, Max, Rosie, and Cooper all enjoyed using this bowl and found it to be suitable for their respective breeds and sizes.
The JW Pet Skid Stop Bowl is made from a high-quality plastic that is resistant to cracking and breaking. It held up well to the rigorous testing conducted by the Beaconpet team, proving its durability. The rubber bottom provided stability, preventing the bowl from sliding across the floor during mealtime.
2. OurPets Durapet Premium Dog Bowl
The second plastic dog bowl that received high marks from the Beaconpet team is the OurPets Durapet Premium Dog Bowl. This bowl impressed the team with its sturdy construction and deep design, which prevented spills and messes. Max, Rosie, and Cooper particularly enjoyed using this bowl due to its larger size and capacity.
Made from heavyweight stainless steel with a plastic exterior, the OurPets Durapet Premium Dog Bowl is built to last. It is resistant to cracking, chipping, and breaking, ensuring that it will withstand even the most enthusiastic eaters. The deep design of the bowl kept the food contained, preventing spills and making cleanup a breeze.
3. Loving Pets Bella Bowls
The third plastic dog bowl that made it to the top three is the Loving Pets Bella Bowls. These bowls stood out for their stylish design and range of vibrant colors. Bella, being the smallest member of the testing team, particularly enjoyed using the Loving Pets Bella Bowls due to their smaller size and lightweight nature.
The Loving Pets Bella Bowls are made from BPA-free, vet-recommended, and dishwasher-safe plastic. They are available in a variety of sizes and colors, allowing dog owners to choose the perfect bowl for their pet. The unique design of these bowls made them stand out, adding a touch of style to any feeding area.
Other Plastic Dog Bowls Worth Considering
While the JW Pet Skid Stop Bowl, OurPets Durapet Premium Dog Bowl, and Loving Pets Bella Bowls were the top choices, there are other plastic dog bowls worth considering. The Beaconpet team tested several other options and found them to be of good quality and suitable for different dog breeds and sizes.
Some of the honorable mentions include the Bergan Standard Dog Bowl, Neater Feeder Express Elevated Dog Bowl, and the Loving Pets Robusto Dog Bowls. These bowls showcased various features and designs that may cater to specific needs or preferences.
In conclusion, plastic dog bowls have gained popularity among dog owners for their versatility, affordability, and easy cleaning. While they may not be suitable for chewers and can move around during eating, their advantages outweigh the disadvantages for many pet owners.
Through rigorous testing and evaluation, the Beaconpet team determined that the JW Pet Skid Stop Bowl, OurPets Durapet Premium Dog Bowl, and Loving Pets Bella Bowls are the three best plastic dog bowls available. These bowls stood out for their suitability, durability, mobility, and capacity, as well as their positive feedback from the testing team.
However, it’s important to remember that every dog is unique and may have their own preferences. It’s always a good idea to consider your dog’s specific needs and characteristics when choosing a plastic dog bowl. With the wide range of options available, you’re sure to find the perfect plastic dog bowl for your furry friend.

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), set up in 1973 as part of the reconciliation effort of the then General Yakubu Gowon’s military government in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War, has hit 50 odd years, the fabled golden jubilee year. It is time, too, to reflect on the journey so far especially as it relates to the principles and intents undergirding its existence.
It is instructive to note that since its establishment, NYSC has reasons to claim that in those years, it has played its role in fostering national unity, providing valuable skills, and serving as a stop gap for employment opportunities for the country’s youth.
In the considered opinion of this newspaper, while it is essential to acknowledge its imperfections, in particular, the money guzzler it has become, it would be hasty to advocate for the review of its viability and continued existence having regard to its contribution to the determination of government to foster national unity with the youths as the pivot which actually is one of its primary objectives.
To a large extent, in the opinion of this newspaper, the policy of deploying young graduates from diverse backgrounds, cultures, traditions and religions to various parts of the country for a year of service, has played a role in exposing the youth to the differences, peculiarities and influences that gauge the peoples’ behaviour patterns building, in the process, attitudes that conduce to understanding, acceptance and tolerance.
This push towards integration has proven to be instrumental in breaking down ethnic, religious, and cultural barriers. By living and working together, young Nigerians gain firsthand experience of different regions, languages, and traditions, fostering mutual understanding and strengthening the fabric of the nation. Through this programme, lifelong friendships have been formed, some leading to marriages, dispelling stereotypes and promoting a shared sense of national identity.
Focusing on the economics of sustaining NYSC as a programme, a section of the society had had cause to advocate the scraping of the scheme. Others, for not- too- obvious reasons, argue that 50 years after, Nigeria has not achieved unity in the true sense of the word. To hold NYSC, per se, accountable for any perceived lapses will amount to giving a dog a bad name. The Corps cannot do much when the political elite continue to insist on exploiting the fault lines of ethnicity and religion at the slightest opportunity. In our view, the NYSC has done its part in fostering national unity, it is now left to the political leadership to achieve unity in the country through an equitable pursuit of social justice.
Besides, the NYSC also provides an avenue for young graduates to acquire valuable skills and experiences that enhance their employability. The three-week orientation camp, followed by the primary place of assignment, exposes participants to new environments and challenges. They gain practical knowledge, leadership abilities, and teamwork skills that are often lacking in traditional educational settings.
In a country grappling with high rate of youth unemployment, the NYSC has emerged as a significant stop gap for employment. Upon completion of their service year, corps members gain an edge in the job market, having acquired practical skills and work experience.
Many organisations, both in the public and private sectors, have recognised the potential of corps members and offer employment opportunities to deserving ones. Additionally, some corps members use the platform as a launchpad for entrepreneurial endeavors, contributing to job creation and economic growth.
While acknowledging the importance of the NYSC, it is crucial to address its imperfections and work towards improvement. One of the main criticisms is the security risks that corps members face in certain parts of the country. The advent of terrorism, banditry, and secessionist agitation in the country had put the programme in regrettable jeopardy. The NYSC, in collaboration with relevant authorities, must take proactive measures to ensure the safety and well-being of all participants.
Additionally, efforts should be made to streamline the posting process, ensuring that corps members are deployed in fields that align with their areas of study, allowing for optimal utilization of their skills and talents.
To maintain the NYSC’s relevance, periodic evaluation and adaptation are necessary. The programme must continually align with the evolving needs of the country’s youth and the demands of the labour market. Regular engagement with stakeholders, including government, educational institutions, and employers, can help identify areas of improvement and address emerging challenges. Incorporating more diverse skill development programmes, such as digital literacy, vocational training and entrepreneurship, can enhance the employability of corps members in an increasingly competitive job market.
As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the National Youth Service Corps, it is essential to recognize its positive impact on Nigerian youth. Scrapping the programme would be a disservice to the millions of young Nigerians who have benefitted from it over the years. Instead, efforts should be directed towards addressing its shortcomings and enhancing its relevance, ensuring that it continues to empower and equip the youth for a brighter future.

Do You Apologize for Your Illness a Lot?
When I first started going with my husband it seemed as if I apologized all the time...until he called me on doing this! He sat me down and tactfully explained that if I did something wrong and it was intentional then by all means an apology was in order. For instance, being cross, rude, taking advantage of situations or others. Let's just admit it, these are sometimes common practices when we don't feel well, but we do not have the right to do these things to others just because we feel bad.
On the other side of the coin, he explained, if I did something that pertained to my illness and it was something I could not control (being forgetful, calling in to work because I'm sick, begging off a scheduled appointment or activity), THEN an apology certainly should not be expected or warranted. Especially if the people involved are aware of your diagnosis and they know these things sometimes happen.
No one should have to apologize for having an illness, and if others do not understand this then it is THEIR problem, not ours. We bear enough burden and have enough to deal with without feeling guilty for our "shortcomings" and we should not have to tell everyone we are sorry all of the time. (BTW - Can you tell my husband's career is in law enforcement?)
Of course most of us want to be considerate of others and we don't want them to be offended or "put off" or "put out." That's why we feel the need to apologize all the time. It has taken me a long time, but I am finally getting out of this habit of always apologizing.
The plain and simple fact is that I feel much better when I refuse to apologize for not feeling well! And I have told my fellow co-workers that from now on I refuse to say: "I'm sorry - I'm not feeling well"! Also, if you are at a store and feel like you can not take another step or lift another finger; when the clerk asks if you need assistance please allow yourself to say: "Yes, thank you, that would be very nice today."…
Hope this makes sense. We are all creatures of habit, right? Well it's time to break some habits! - R
Back Pain and Vitamin D – 30 to 80 is Normal, Mine was 13
Re: Mayo Clinic pain study suggests ‘Many patients who have been labeled with Fibromyalgia are, in fact, suffering from symptomatic vitamin D inadequacy.’
I have been complaining of severe back pain for 7 years; I was put on a narcotic and my usual muscle relaxants. (I have a 12-vertebrae spinal fusion from scoliosis 41 years ago without hardware)… I started losing height quickly, and told my doctors. Not much reaction there. Recently I had a blood panel run at a different doctor and came back with an extremely low thyroid number… I was referred to an Endocrinologist who sent me for more tests. Everything came normal except the vitamin D. I looked up on this website about the symptoms of lack of D - I have almost all the classic symptoms.
Then I went to the pain department here and find out vitamin D deficiency can be a major factor in chronic pain. WOW, it appears that a simple blood test could help pain patients and rule out a vitamin D inadequacy. Today I took my 1st of four 50,000 IU pills of D [to be taken] within a month. I hope it helps. This can soften the bones, which may have caused my fusion to have some failure. I lost 1-3/4 inches in height; parathyroid not working correctly, and complete pain all over, among other things.
This is a correctable situation and I hope more people find out about this depending on their particular symptoms. Fifteen minutes of sunlight will keep this condition from happening. An easy fix! Pass this info on to anyone with the symptoms I have, although there are many things lack of "D" can cause. – C
Flector® Patches Helped My Pain
I just got a prescription for Flector Patches [an NSAID] this week and WOW are they helping. I have a swollen area on my spine that hurts so much... This patch has made a noticeable difference and freed up the area for more movement, more circulation, and so in turn, faster healing, I hope…
They are anti-inflamatory patches… They are supposed to be better than orally administered anti-inflammatory drugs because they go straight to the affected area and skip the stomach and thereby avoid all those terrible things you read about NSAIDs. They have a pretty good adhesive and are about 3x5 inches. I can wear two at once, for example one on my shoulder blade and one on my lower back. I have big swollen areas there, noticeable through my clothes on my shoulder.
Using the patches for about 4 days has reduced the swelling by about 75%. The directions say to change it every 12 hours but my doc suggested they may last as long as 24 hrs, so to play around with them. They are lasting about 18 hrs. Hope… others get the same benefits I have. - V
Note: like all NSAIDs this product comes with warnings of cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and other risks; and because it is applied to the skin users are advised to avoid exposure to direct sunlight and observe other precautions.
Misdiagnosed with FM & ME/CFS, etc. for 34.5 Years
I've had chronic Lyme for 39 years. Misdiagnosed for 34.5 years by 40 to 50 doctors with just a few of these being mentioned: mono/Epstein-Barr virus, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, TMJ, food allergies to gluten/wheat and casein/dairy food; extreme sensitivities to: lights, glare, & reflection; noise & sounds; and chemicals: perfume, after shave, hair spray, cigarettes & smoke on their clothing; diesel fumes, some food smells, cleaning & office supplies.
I had a Western Blot IgG and IgG blood test drawn and sent to Igenex Diagnostic Labs, Palo Alto, California. Both tests were positive. My treating primary doctor of 27 years clinically diagnosed me after that. – B (an Iowa activist)
PS: Last year, Andy A. Wilson released his 4 years-in-the-making DVD, “Under Our Skin” – a 104-minute Lyme documentary. You can view a brief trailer of the film and check out their dates of screenings being done across the USA, and the 'big screen' dates in NYC and California, beginning in June.
Thanks for the Easy-to-Understand Immune System Explanation
Re: "Your Immune System and How it Works," by William Collinge, PhD, MPH
Yesterday, after giving 30 vials of blood for testing, my results came back… my immune system is shot! This was a great website and article to understand the terms my doctor used, so I can advocate better for my health. - N
Note: Dr. Collinge's online Fibromyalgia Wellness Project, introduced in this issue, invites FM patients with Internet access to participate in a free wellness support program. The NIH-funded Project will recruit 200 individuals in June and another 2,000 this fall.
FM and ME/CFS are Different Illnesses - Living Proof
Re: “ME/CFS and FM: The Same, Related, or Different,” by Karen Lee Richards.
My personal experience is positive proof to me that these are two distinct illnesses, albeit with overlapping symptoms and often found together. I was diagnosed with FM 20 years ago. Amazingly (miraculously) I found a Dr. back then who actually knew about FM and how to properly diagnose it - via tender point evaluation and history. She told me I could not continue my very physically strenuous job, and that there was nothing more to help me with. I had had FM about a year before diagnosis.
Then 2 years later, while working long hours as a florist on Valentine’s Day, I came down with what I thought was a flu bug. Entirely NEW set of symptoms - nausea, vomiting, fever, sore throat, debilitating fatigue - worse than usual FM, and cognitive impairment greatly exacerbated. Pain also greatly increased.
My "flu" never went away. It was clear to me that I had had two very distinct separate onsets. With FM I had chronic widespread pain, sleep disturbance, and some cognitive dysfunction; tiredness but still working full time, but NO OTHER flu like symptoms. The ME/CFS "flu" hit me suddenly and severely 3 years later. No doubt in my mind about distinct illnesses. - S
Lyrica® and Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms
I just wanted to give you all a "heads up." I have been taking [the prescription drug] Lyrica for neuropathic pain and it was helping. However, I developed serious symptoms of MS - loss of balance, bladder problems, vision problems, numbness and tingling as well as other neurologic problems. Inability to stand with eyes closed, walk heel to toe, and difficulty walking, forget stairs!
I quit taking Lyrica about 7 days ago and the symptoms seem to be clearing up. When I looked a bit harder into the side effects of Lyrica, all of these problems were noted in the studies. I thought having fibromyalgia was bad (which it is) but I have to say, I would rather have it than MS! - A
Specialty Clinic’s Tests for Infections Saved My Life
I have been diagnosed with both ME/CFS and FM like many people. I had a life threatening case of CFS and went into chronic septic shock. Turned out that I had 6 infections – Epstein-Barr, CMV (cytomegalovirus), Chlamydia pneumoniae, Mycoplasa, HHV-6, and Candida - that no one ever found until I went to a fatigue center in LA [the Holtorf medical Group in Torrance, CA ]. They have a protocol to look for infections and treat them…
The ER doctors [had] said I had anxiety and looked no further when my life was hanging by a thread… The specialty clinics are a must. They know what to test for and how to treat the results. Look for one with a treatment protocol. It saved my life. - C
Lil’ Housework Tricks
Over the years I’ve picked up lil’ tricks like these that really help.
• Give everyone their own cup, just rinse it out and use it again next time. At the end of the day you don’t have lots of glasses and mugs.
• I have cloths lining the shelves in the fridge, that way it rarely needs cleaning, just change the cloth. I use white facecloths.
• I have mats that I put on the top of the fridge, entertainment centre, dressers and any other surfaces to save dusting.
• Before I get out of bed in the morning I pull all the blankets up so that it’s already made when I am up.
• Before I get out of the bath I wash the tub. I keep a terry towel robe right there for times that I am too tired to dry myself. I use lots of bubble bath so just soak clean.
• I have an extra tension shower rod installed just behind my other shower curtain rod. It holds all the towels or anything that needs drying, hidden behind the closed shower curtain.
• Perhaps a laundry basket stored in the tub would work for the kids’ dirty clothes? My aunt had a TINY bathroom; she had to use the bathtub for storage, and it always looked tidy and neat. - G
Try Kitty Prozac
I always tell people when you've had the worst day ever, and you come home and kitty climbs up in your lap, rubs his face against yours, and purrrrrrrs, that's Kitty Prozac. I try to take a dose of that every day! – C
Good Lawyers List?
Q: Is there a good lawyer list somewhere? I thought I’d seen one but can’t find it now. – K
A: One ‘good lawyers list’ is offered by the Disinissues website. They list info on US lawyers known to deal with ME/CFS and/or FM contributed by site users - but they only have listings in 22 states so far. For other states, they recommend “you can always call Trial Lawyers of America at 1-800-424-2725, or Trial Lawyers for Public Justice at 1-202-797-8000 and ask for a lawyer who deals with CFIDS and or FM in your area.”
In Canada there is the National ME/FM Action Network, which maintains a Legal Roster of lawyers familiar with ME/CFS and FM. Contact Lydia at 613-829-6667 or e-mail email@example.com. Other info is offered via Canada’s Legal Line®
And maybe best, post your question on one of ProHealth’s Community Message Boards, indicating where you live, and you will likely receive helpful info or suggestions from other posters who live in your area.
Levaquin® and Fibro
I was recently prescribed a 10 day course of Levaquin [a fluoroquinolone type antimicrobial] and could not believe how it made me feel. Within 5 or 6 days of starting treatment I could hardly get in and out of a car or my bed without help. My son said it looked like I was aging from 58 to 88 in a matter of days. I had excruciating hip pain, could not grip anything, was completely exhausted and needed to sleep all the time.
I work part time in a family care practice. I mentioned how bad a flare I was having to the chief practitioner. She asked what I had been prescribed for a sinus infection I had been battling. When I told her Levaquin, she told me to get off of it immediately. It apparently blocks all of a certain liver receptor, making all of my other medication unable to be metabolized. This in effect meant I was having a fibro flare and none of my medications could help me fight it. She told me to tell my doctor that I should never be prescribed any quinolone medication... a real shame, because it cleared up the sinus infection like no other antibiotic had ever done. - H

Iron regulatory protein 2 (IRP2) is a central post-transcriptional regulator of cellular and systemic iron metabolism. It is a cytosolic RNA-binding protein that binds to stem-loop structures. IRP2 is regulated by iron-mediated proteolysis. Hypoxia is important for normal tissue physiology as well as being a component of several pathophysiological conditions, including heart and cerebrovascular diseases and tumor growth. Because iron and oxygen are closely related, IRP2 also plays a role during hypoxia (low oxygen).

Play Shadow Realms
Shadow Realms game overview
Review of the game Shadow Realms
As you can see, Electronic Arts Inc. prefer to publish sci-fi or sky-fi projects. So for 2015, under their auspices, the release of the MMORPG "Shadow Realms" from the BioWare studio is scheduled. The new action game is going to captivate the audience with a well-developed plot, next-generation graphics and its contribution to the development of the barely emerging genre of “asymmetric co-op”. It consists in balancing characters of different strengths with the number of them on one side or the other of the front. In this case, four fighters will confront only one - the Lord of Shadows, who is a kind of strategist who is developing what kind of dirty trick to arrange for the four: send a horde of monsters, charge a trap, or prepare a particularly powerful boss.
There are seven combat classes for fighters. Some of them are endowed with paranormal abilities, but basically the scenario concerns developments in the field of high technologies. By the way, about the script. The main idea revolves around moving between two worlds in contact - Earth and Embra, but the main thing is that BioWare pleased with their intention to supplement the plot on a monthly basis, releasing appropriate game updates. Well, we on the site MMOTOP.ORG wish the developers good luck, because there is still hope that such major manufacturers as Electronic Arts and BioWare will turn their ideas into reality.

Excessive monetary growth caused the spike in inflation. Will too aggressive tightening push the economy in recession?
In the 139th edition of „bto 2.0 – der Ökonomie-Podcast mit Dr. Daniel Stelter“ we feature the full interview with Professor Tim Congdon, chairman of the Institute of International Monetary Research at the University of Buckingham. In our conversation in June last year (episode 84) Professor Congdon predicted the high inflation in the USA, the UK and the Eurozone. Now he fears, central banks are committing a second mistake in pushing the economies into recession. His appeal: we have to return to a policy of steady monetary growth.

The prostate gland is inside your pelvis, at the top of the urethra (the tube that carries urine) which is connected to your bladder. It is usually the size of a walnut. As you pass 60 years old it is very common for it to grow in size, and this may start in middle age as well. As the prostate gland is wrapped around the urethra, any inflammation or swelling can cause narrowing of the urethra, leading to interrupted or difficult urination, characterised as dribbling. It is also common to experience sudden or frequent urges to urinate, especially at night, which often don't result in full flow. This is not always painful but can be. Herbs and supplements that can help include the well-researched, saw palmetto to reduce prostate swelling and cornsilk to soothe the urethra. Uva-ursi and Sarsaparilla are also used by some herbalists.
Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy (BPH)
If you realise that your prostate is probably enlarged, you should have it examined by your GP, especially if you experience pain or burning while urinating. In some cases, an enlarged prostate can develop into BPH or you can miss the signs of prostate cancer. Researchers think BPH happens when testosterone builds up in the prostate where it is converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This is a normal process but in BPH it can cause the swelling of the prostate to become so large that urine backs up in the bladder and stagnates. This can cause urinary infections and other complications.
This can be exacerbated by some drugs, such as antidepressants, some tranquilisers and antihistamines. Frequent ejaculation can help to alleviate some of the symptoms. Herbs and supplements used are also saw palmetto, corn silk and uva ursi.
Your libido often lowers as you age but it is far more common in younger men as well. It is a circular condition as the more you worry about it, the more likely it is to occur. Common causes are stress and side effects from pharmaceutical drugs. Although herbs and supplements like damiana, maca and horny goat weed can help, there is no magic answer. Get to the bottom of what is causing it: Address the stress and anxiety - the herb valerian can help - and damiana also helps with the mental anxiety about performance or speak to your GP about your medication.
Also reduce your alcohol intake as alcohol also depresses the central nervous system (CNS) and men who drink regularly find that associated low libido is common, even though occasional use can seem to stimulate desire. Being overweight is also a contributing factor.
Stress counselling is often helpful, combined with herbs and supplements too.
Erectile impairment (trouble getting or sustaining an erection) is also far more common that many realise but affects millions of men. The causes are similar to low libido but artherosclerosis (narrowing of the arteries) which can cause heart disease can also play a part. This is why smoking and diabetes, which both trigger narrowing of the arteries, are often implicated. Again, avoid narcotics and alcohol. As Shakespeare says of alcohol in Macbeth "It provokes the desire, but takes away the performance."
Occasionally erectile dysfunction is caused by a deficiency of testosterone but this is not particularly common. Your GP can test for this and also for diabetes to rule them out. Or discuss any medication side effects.
Emotional stress is again a significant factor. Money worries, work pressure and marital strife can all undermine sex drive.
Do not be tempted to take quick fix drugs like sildenafil (Viagara) if you are on medication. With some nitrate drugs for angina and heart disease this can cause a potentially fatal drug interaction.
Herbs and supplements that support the adrenal system like ginseng, ginkgo and ashwagandha have a role to play, as do plants that help to lower cholesterol like wild oats and garlic.
Herbal stimulants are widely advertised but need to be treated with caution. Herbs like ephedra (ma huang are banned in the UK. Many of the widely advertised ones are high in caffeine like coffee, tea, cocoa, guarana, maté and kola nut.
The best approach is a long term one of improving your diet, increasing exercise levels which can help significantly, reducing stress levels and using herbs to support this process not to replace it.
