NOT JUST TOURISTS * Friends of Cuba in the Toronto area who wonder what they can take to help out when they travel to Cuba have a practical new possibility. A non-profit, volunteer-run organization called “Not Just Tourists Toronto” will send you on your way with a suitcase of medicines and medical supplies destined for a doctor in the area you plan to visit. The projects start-up was assisted by donations from the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW), the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers (CEP), the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association (OECTA), and the United Steelworkers (USW). In its first year of operation, project volunteers collected, packed and sent more than 1,000 kilograms of medicines and medical supplies abroad with tourists. In 2005, the United Steelworkers donated space for the group and the amount of donations sent rose to 2,161 kilos. Bill Howes, one of the projects founders, now offers an e-mail course designed to help people in other Canadian cities and abroad to develop Not Just Tourist projects in their own communities. (He is a retired executive assistant to the president of the Toronto and York Region Labour Council.) As a result, NJT projects have started in Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa.

While it may be impractical for a chain drug store to stock such an extensive assortment, there is an emerging mass market line that offers the trade class a way to capitalize on demand for weaves and extensions.Vice president of sales Eileen Phillips says there is no reason chain drug stores should let beauty shops capture the entire hair weave and extension market. The Sun-Tec assortment requires very little space but can make a significant contribution to the profitability of the ethnic hair care category, she notes.African-American women are spending a lot of money on these products when they go to a salon or beauty shop, comments Phillips. When a chain drug store stocks these products it is giving them another reason to shop there. Weaves and extensions can be a very strong addition to the hair care section.
MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. — Overwhelming interest in product and services enables Company to move forward with sales and marketing plans more quickly than anticipated Estanislao Raphael Ruiz (aka Raphael Basante), President of JRC Global Products, stated that inquiries, orders and requests for samples have increased tenfold since Mrs. Ruiz and I were hired by the Jackson Rivers Company. We have known that there was an immense interest in the product for some time, but were unable to get our message out to the public without help from an established company. The latest news released to the public (see Press Release 2/1/05) alone has generated even more interest than we had imagined. The initial order of top-quality human hair and the supplies used to apply the system has been placed and will be used to satisfy and fulfill these inquiries and orders as quickly as possible. The patented line of hair products and services, newly offered and distributed exclusively by JRC Global Products, include the extension system, which is used to add volume, density, and length, and the hair replacement system, which is designed mainly for women who are experiencing hair loss on top. It is an integration technique, which means the clients existing hair is pulled through openings in the center of the base of the extension or hair replacement. The clients hair is not completely covered by conventional hairpiece or wig, but rather is enhanced by the system. It is a system unlike any other currently offered. Opposed to the application of all products offered by our competitors, which causes damage to clients natural hair, ours does not, added Mr. Basante.
MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. — Meeting with Manufacturer Leads to Possible Expansion of the Companys Product Offerings and Broadening of Potential Customer Base This week, executive management of JRC Global Products met with the president of the manufacturing company in order to finalize the agreement and discuss future plans. This company will become JRC Global Products exclusive manufacturer of the patented line of hair products, including the hair extension system, which is used to add volume, density and length, and the hair replacement system, which is designed mainly for women who are experiencing hair loss on the top of the head.

Jerold Binkleys motto is, “Nothing in moderation.” This is quite apparent to anyone who visits Binkleys residence during Topeka Beautifications spring open house when Binkleys 60 flower beds are on display. The flowerbeds stretch out over three acres on Binkleys property. While the tulips get the most attention, everything from flowering trees to daffodils, roses and lilies and phlox fills the grounds.
Pandas Flowers is opening a flower shop in the U.S. Grant Hotel, 326 Broadway.
Flowers bloom everywhere on Earth, except Antarctica. You can find them in the desert, in the arctic, in the rainforest, in the prairie, or in the woods. Many flowers even grow in lakes and streams. Trees have them, so do grasses and weeds. Did you ever wonder why plants make flowers? Its not to look beautiful or feed the bees. The real job of a flower is to make seeds. Seeds make new plants. In the center of each flower is the pistil. The sticky top is called the stigma. Below it is a long tube called the style. The round part at the bottom is the ovary. Inside the ovary are the ovules, or unformed seeds, waiting to grow. Around the pistil are the stamens. Each stamen has a thin stem-like part called the filament and a rounded tip called the anther. The anthers make pollen. Green leaves called sepals protect the outside of the flower. The colorful petals of the flower have an important job to do, too.

The researchers also conducted an online survey of 644 individuals who reported actively considering surgery. Interviewees said they thought they could minimize their risks by researching the procedure and the surgeons who specialize in that area. Two-thirds of the interview participants said the potential risks would not deter them from seeking surgery, while one-third said they would need to weigh the risks and benefits carefully. The research was funded by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
As in the past, the goal of this Clinic is to describe for out readers surgical techniques and treatments proven to be successful. This feature is expected to be of interest both to the seasoned surgeon and the beginner. The Facial Plastic Surgery Clinic will feature color photographs and illustrations. It will offer the opportunity to all otolaryngologists and plastic surgeons who have mastered a unique technique or found a better way to solve a problem to submit their ideas to this Clinic, to demonstrate them to their colleagues. I welcome Dr. Mobley to the ENT JOURNAL and look forward to the continuing success of the Facial Plastic Surgery Clinic.

In regard to the article, Why More Blacks Are Choosing Plastic Surgery (August 2004), I think there is nothing wrong with African-Americans (or anyone else) having plastic surgery if it will help you to feel more confident about your body. I believe that what you decide to do with your body is your business; just know that our bodies are beautiful just as God made them. Remember, beauty begins within your soul!
facelift Holme Valley Memorial Hospital NEW services are being provided from Holme Valley Memorial Hospital day surgery unit, Holmfirth, and Moorfields Primary Care Centre, Crosland Moor. Dr Colin Wright, a GP with a special interest in plastic surgery, is holding two plastic surgery sessions a fortnight at Holme Valley Memorial Hospital. Patients can have lesions of the face, moles and cysts surgically removed in the specialised surroundings of the pounds 750,000 day surgery unit.
The demand for more education and real people to share their experiences with plastic surgery has grown incredibly all over the world, explained Dr. Mayer, co-director with Richard Fleming, M.D. of the Beverly Hills Institute of Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery. We are excited to participate in a show like Cosmetic Surgery Live, which takes the epicenter of beauty (LA) to the United Kingdom. Dr. Mayer will perform a new FDA-approved procedure called the ENDOTINE Cheek Lift which is ideal for patients ages 35-50 who are not looking for a radical makeover, but a more understated rejuvenation that brings them back 7-10 years. With its five points of contact and absorbable features, the new ENDOTINE device gives patients natural, long-lasting results. It also enhances cheek volume - key to obtaining a more youthful appearance. During a cheeklift procedure using ENDOTINE, a half-inch incision is made inside a crows foot alongside the lower eye. Once the underlying muscle and tissue has been elevated to lift the cheek area, the new ENDOTINE Mid Face is placed to capture and elevate the cheek, securing it into the bone and holding it in position until the soft tissue re-adheres to the cheek bone entirely. The ENDOTINE gradually absorbs completely, at which time the tissue is securely attached to the cheekbone lifting the mid-face.

The Colorado Springs Fire Department is offering free home inspections and smoke detectors as part of National Fire Prevention Week, which ends Saturday. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call 385- 5959.
The Apartment Association of La Crosse Area Inc. has unanimously passed an alternative to the proposed rental inspection/ licensing ordinance.The proposal calls for the inspection of “owner-occupied dwellings” - which includes single-family homes - as well as rentals.”To me there is a difference between what someone does in their home that they own and what a landlord does in a property (where) he is taking money to provide a place that is clean and safe,” said La Crosse Common Council member Charles Clemence, committee chairman. “If you make your own wine at home, thats one thing. If you make it for sale, there are other rules. If youre doing something as a business, thats different than doing for yourself.”

* Exercise may be the stepping stone to fewer gallbladder surgeries. Women exercising just 30 minutes a day five times a week cut their risk by 20 percent, while physically active middle-aged men sliced their risk by almost 50 percent. Results of the ongoing Nurses Health Study conducted at Harvard were first published in the New England Journal of Medicine. The exercise, which may improve body fat, insulin levels and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, could help cut the more than 800,000 hospitalizations related to gallbladder surgery that occur in the United States each year, states Consumer Reports on Health. * Theres a rat in my beer! A recent study at the University of Manitoba, Canada, showed that damaged livers in rats were repaired faster with light alcohol consumption than with no alcohol consumption, while heavy alcohol consumption was bad news. The trial studied the effect of light, moderate and heavy doses of alcohol in rats with partially removed livers. Researchers believe that light consumption of ethanol helps production of a repair-promoting gene. Animals receiving heavy doses of alcohol showed retardation of hepatic repair and those given moderate amounts of alcohol showed no extraordinary improvement reports Family Practice News. * Its all in the family. A recent study indicates that persons from larger families are at a greater risk of developing Alzheimers disease. According to statistics, the risk that an individual will have the disease increases by 8 percent for each additional sibling in a family and is 39 percent greater for those with five or more siblings than in those with less than five siblings. The report, first published in Neurology, suggests that the areas of the brain affected by the disease correspond with those that take the greatest amount of time to mature during child and teen years, and thats why childhood factors play a role in development of the disease.
Because weight control is big business, countless numbers of bogus quick weight loss plans are available. Kay Stanfill, a registered dietician at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, offers some advice on how to determine the truth about weight loss: Does the plan require that you do absolutely nothing? (Lose weight while you sleep, etc.) “Losing weight without any effort is a fantasy that we all share. But if a person is trying to be healthy, he or she will have to learn to change ingrained behaviors–namely eating and exercising habits.” Does the diet radically skew your eating habits, such as the “pineapple diet,” the “cottage cheese diet,” etc.? Diets which restrict a persons choices generally are doomed from the start. If adhered to for a long time, they cant provides sufficient nutrition. Also, “if a person restricts anything from his or her diet–you usually can bet that that will become his or her next |binge food. There is nothing like deprivation to make people crave a particular food.”
A 1999 study of 2,800 individuals who lost at least 30 pounds and maintained the weight loss for more than a year reported the following: * about 55 percent had been involved in a formal weight loss program

Medic Home Health Care, Mayfield Village, OH, Feb. 5 (Cincinnati). FDA cited deficiencies in batch production records, written procedures, training and assays. Misbranding resulted from labeling deficiencies.
“There are [more than] 30 million Americans who have no health insurance and another 20 million who have inadequate health insurance,” says Rep. Louis Stokes (D0Ohio), chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus Health Brain Trust. “It is mandatory that we begin to try and give Americans–particularly minorities–adequate health care as a right.” The Bush plan would give people not covered by Medicaid tax credits, and families making less than $80,000 a year tax deductions to pay for medical costs. He would also pass laws to ensure that even chronically ill patients could receive health insurance. The plan has received a cool reception on Capitol Hill, and alternate proposals, including a full-scale, government-paid national health insurance plan, are under development. But what does America really want for its health care system? The views are many.

Swimming pools If any designer or specifier, owner or operator of a swimming pool wishes to know almost anything on the subject which is not covered in the book, the extensive reading lists provide authoritative guidance on where this may be found. Having worked with the author for some years in the Advisory Division of the Cement and Concrete Association, I am not surprised to find the meticulous care taken in providing important details on many aspects of pool planning, design and construction. Swimming pools have to function in an environment aggressive to many of the materials used in their construction and the text provides guidance on avoiding potential problems. The majority of pools have a basic reinforced concrete structure built below ground which, externally, is subject to earth and water pressure and is liable to attack from aggressive ground conditions. Detailed guidance is not provided on reinforced concrete design but pointers to references on design are listed and factors affecting the durability of reinforced concrete are presented in some detail.
Swimming PoolIn the design and manufacturing of pre-fabricated aboveground pools, the cost of fabrication continues to be a major concern. Pools have to be manufactured in a variety of styles and sizes to accommodate the available space requirements of the customer and the variety of components necessary for manufacturing is quite large. Designs that can incorporate this flexibility and reduce the necessary inventory required to accommodate a variety of sizes and structures have begun to arrive in the above ground swimming pool manufacturing marketplace creating easier systems to erect without sacrificing stability.Above ground swimming pools have an exterior wall of machined sheet metal construction formed into a continuous circular or oval shape. Support or reinforcing posts are located around the perimeter of the pool and serve to strengthen and maintain the pool wall in the desired position. Conventionally, various components make up these post assemblies and may include upper and lower rails for engaging and covering the upper and lower edges of the metal pool wall, some form of plate connectors which serve to mount the vertical posts in position and which may also be used to secure sections of ledges around the top of the pool wall. Some form of cap is usually fastened to finish the top of the post assembly.

The biggest challenge for us as the New Generation is that we live in a very fast-paced world. Things are constantly changing and the ability to adapt has become essential for survival in our world of speed. One of the ways we can stay on track in our current culture is through NLP (NeuroLinguistic Programming). Research has proven that NLP is one of the most effective ways of behaviour modification. One of my colleagues, who finished his PHD in NLP, came to the conclusion that as a Psychologist, NLP serves as the best model for changing behaviour to adapt to our world of speed.

Despite an objection from the California Coastal Commission, the Encinitas City Council still wants to ban new short-term vacation rentals of 30 days or fewer. The reason for the proposal, according to officials, is that occupants of short-term rentals often abuse the citys noise, littering, public intoxication and illegal parking rules. But the Coastal Commission, acting in response to the citys first application for a review of the matter, advised against the proposed ban in February. The ban would apply only to new leases; old ones would be grandfathered in. A second application for review of the proposed ban was sent to the Coastal Commission in late July.

Business Editors The Internet Marketing Edge launches its 10 step method to successfully selling on-line. This book will give you the edge on Internet marketing guaranteed or your money back.
I. INTRODUCTION This study empirically examines person-to-person transactions within the Internet market known as eBay. In this virtual market of unseen participants and products, buyers and sellers face the risks of repudiation, as the counter party may deny the agreement after the fact. Buyers assume risks associated with lack of seller integrity and asymmetric information about the particular product, as the buyer is typically required to send payment before the seller ships the product. In addition, for many eBay transactions, the cost of enforcing a contract is high relative to the transactions value, resulting in a practical absence of legal enforcement. (2) By providing a history of trade execution information, eBay benefits market participants by reducing information asymmetries while achieving substantial transaction cost economies. Market participants relate personal experiences, which eBay uses to calculate a numerical reputation measure for each user. Market participants, in turn, can use this reputation measure to assess counter party risk and adjust bidding behavior accordingly.

Hypnotherapy may offer patients 1-5 years of relief from the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, reported Dr. Wendy M. Gonsalkorale and her colleagues at the University Hospital of South Manchester (England). Their symptoms improved immediately after hypnotherapy and remained improved at follow-up. Patients who continued to use a hypnotherapy tape did not have fewer symptoms than those who did not.
Abstract This paper argues that hypnotherapy is a potentially effective adjunct to complementary medicine. Using existing research and professional publications, the paper considers the impact hypnosis could make as an adjunct to complementary medicine. Just as hypnosis is effective within the orthodox health arena, it could have application in complementary medicine. Cowen LW, Saltmarsh D, Hayek R. Hypnotherapy: an adjunct to complementary medicine. Journal of the Australian Traditional-Medicine Society 2008;14(2):87-89.

Clients with fine, weak and/or damaged hair can improve and strengthen their hair with the use of extensions, said Giacomo of Studio 211. This particular new technique uses a thermoplastic tube that shrinks once applied to the clients hair giving it an extremely strong attachment capability without damaging the hair with any kind of adhesive. Studio 211 specializes in working with problem hair. Hair extensions add volume, strength and even highlights and color without further compromising the health of the hair by using harsh chemicals and coloring. Not only can hair extensions add thickness, body and coverage to clients with problem hair but the additional hair also protects the hair, giving it added strength. A clients hair with extensions does not break as easily and isnt as brittle or flyaway. The new thermoplastic bonding technique uses minute cylinders that are visually undetectable and allows the studio to apply extensions without glues thus further protecting their clients hair.

MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. — Overwhelming interest in product and services enables Company to move forward with sales and marketing plans more quickly than anticipated Estanislao Raphael Ruiz (aka Raphael Basante), President of JRC Global Products, stated that inquiries, orders and requests for samples have increased tenfold since Mrs. Ruiz and I were hired by the Jackson Rivers Company. We have known that there was an immense interest in the product for some time, but were unable to get our message out to the public without help from an established company. The latest news released to the public (see Press Release 2/1/05) alone has generated even more interest than we had imagined. The initial order of top-quality human hair and the supplies used to apply the system has been placed and will be used to satisfy and fulfill these inquiries and orders as quickly as possible. The patented line of hair products and services, newly offered and distributed exclusively by JRC Global Products, include the extension system, which is used to add volume, density, and length, and the hair replacement system, which is designed mainly for women who are experiencing hair loss on top. It is an integration technique, which means the clients existing hair is pulled through openings in the center of the base of the extension or hair replacement. The clients hair is not completely covered by conventional hairpiece or wig, but rather is enhanced by the system. It is a system unlike any other currently offered. Opposed to the application of all products offered by our competitors, which causes damage to clients natural hair, ours does not, added Mr. Basante.

In addition, plastic surgeons have sought to develop better techniques for the treatment and repair of skin damage resulting from burns, and improved techniques for the repair of congenital deformities of the hand and craniofacial reconstruction for repair of cleft lip and palate , one of the most common plastic surgeries for babies, children, and adolescents

A relatively small percentage of plastic surgery procedures are performed on patients under 18 for cosmetic purposes. These procedures include otoplasty (correcting prominent ears) and rhinoplasty (reshaping the nose); and breast augmentation and breast reduction. Data from the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons on cosmetic procedures performed on patients under age 18 are shown in the accompanying table.

OPERATION SMILE INTERNATIONAL

In 1982, plastic surgeon William Magee and his social worker wife, Kathleen, founded the nonprofit organization Operation Smile. As of 1996, the organizations surgeons had performed surgery on 18,000 children in 15 countries. Surgeries performed included cleft lip and palate correction, and burn scar correction.

Buying a home is often the largest purchase decision a person will make. It is therefore not surprising that the use of home inspectors is increasing as buyers seek to confirm the physical condition of their purchases. Home inspectors, however, have often been referred to as “deal killers” by real estate licensees because they have, on occasion, been responsible for stopping a sale of residential real estate that would have otherwise been completed. More recently, however, licensees are viewing home inspections somewhat differently. Instead of perceiving home inspectors as a potential source of reducing a real estate licensees income, licensees are viewing them as a way to increase future sales and reduce potential liability on the buyer side of the transaction.This study examines the role that home inspections play in the residential real estate home buying process. To date, no study has considered this impact on the sales process. Furthermore, the performance, process and other characteristics of those sales agents that have been involved with a home inspection in the residential sales process are unknown.

NOT JUST TOURISTS * Friends of Cuba in the Toronto area who wonder what they can take to help out when they travel to Cuba have a practical new possibility. A non-profit, volunteer-run organization called “Not Just Tourists Toronto” will send you on your way with a suitcase of medicines and medical supplies destined for a doctor in the area you plan to visit. The projects start-up was assisted by donations from the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW), the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers (CEP), the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association (OECTA), and the United Steelworkers (USW). In its first year of operation, project volunteers collected, packed and sent more than 1,000 kilograms of medicines and medical supplies abroad with tourists. In 2005, the United Steelworkers donated space for the group and the amount of donations sent rose to 2,161 kilos. Bill Howes, one of the projects founders, now offers an e-mail course designed to help people in other Canadian cities and abroad to develop Not Just Tourist projects in their own communities. (He is a retired executive assistant to the president of the Toronto and York Region Labour Council.) As a result, NJT projects have started in Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa. For more information contact Howes by sending an e-mail to: njt@njttoronto.ca.

ASIA -info from The Observer
Clients with fine, weak and/or damaged hair can improve and strengthen their hair with the use of extensions, said Giacomo of Studio 211. This particular new technique uses a thermoplastic tube that shrinks once applied to the clients hair giving it an extremely strong attachment capability without damaging the hair with any kind of adhesive. Studio 211 specializes in working with problem hair. Hair extensions add volume, strength and even highlights and color without further compromising the health of the hair by using harsh chemicals and coloring. Not only can hair extensions add thickness, body and coverage to clients with problem hair but the additional hair also protects the hair, giving it added strength. A clients hair with extensions does not break as easily and isnt as brittle or flyaway. The new thermoplastic bonding technique uses minute cylinders that are visually undetectable and allows the studio to apply extensions without glues thus further protecting their clients hair.

They argue that, if marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and other drugs were legalized, several positive things would probably occur: (1) drug prices would fall; (2) users would obtain their drugs at low, government-regulated prices, and they would no longer be forced to resort to crime in order to support their habits, (3) levels of drug-related crime, and particularly violent crime, would significantly decline, resulting in less crowded courts, jails, and prisons (this would allow law-enforcement personnel to focus their energies on the “real criminals” in society); and the drug production, distribution, and sale would no longer be controlled by organized crime, and thus such criminal syndicates as the Colombian cocaine “cartels,” the Jamaican “posses,” and the various “mafias” around the country and the world would be decapitalized, and the violence associated with drug distribution rivalries would be eliminated. By contrast, the anti-legalization camp argues that violent crime would not necessarily decline in a legalized drug market. In fact, there are three reasons why it might actually increase. First, removing the criminal sanctions against the possession and distribution of illegal drugs would make them more available and attractive and, hence, would create large numbers of new users. Second, an increase in use would lead to a greater number of dysfunctional addicts who could not support themselves, their habits, or their lifestyles through legitimate means. Hence crime would be their only alternative. Third, more users would mean more of the violence associated with the ingestion of drugs. These divergent points of view tend to persist because the relationships between drugs and crime are quite complex and because the possible outcomes of a legalized drug market are based primarily on speculation. However, it is possible, from a careful review of the existing empirical literature on drugs and violence, to make some educated inferences.

In regard to the article, Why More Blacks Are Choosing Plastic Surgery (August 2004), I think there is nothing wrong with African-Americans (or anyone else) having plastic surgery if it will help you to feel more confident about your body. I believe that what you decide to do with your body is your business; just know that our bodies are beautiful just as God made them. Remember, beauty begins within your soul!
As in the past, the goal of this Clinic is to describe for out readers surgical techniques and treatments proven to be successful. This feature is expected to be of interest both to the seasoned surgeon and the beginner. The Facial Plastic Surgery Clinic will feature color photographs and illustrations. It will offer the opportunity to all otolaryngologists and plastic surgeons who have mastered a unique technique or found a better way to solve a problem to submit their ideas to this Clinic, to demonstrate them to their colleagues. I welcome Dr. Mobley to the ENT JOURNAL and look forward to the continuing success of the Facial Plastic Surgery Clinic.
The researchers also conducted an online survey of 644 individuals who reported actively considering surgery. Interviewees said they thought they could minimize their risks by researching the procedure and the surgeons who specialize in that area. Two-thirds of the interview participants said the potential risks would not deter them from seeking surgery, while one-third said they would need to weigh the risks and benefits carefully. The research was funded by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Abstract This paper argues that hypnotherapy is a potentially effective adjunct to complementary medicine. Using existing research and professional publications, the paper considers the impact hypnosis could make as an adjunct to complementary medicine. Just as hypnosis is effective within the orthodox health arena, it could have application in complementary medicine. Cowen LW, Saltmarsh D, Hayek R.
