Jeremy Piven's 'Wisdom of the Crowd' Done After 13 Episodes on CBS
The news comes as the network was "looking into" the actor following allegations of sexual harassment.
CBS has hit the brakes on the Jeremy Piven rookie drama Wisdom of the Crowd.
The network has opted to end the series based on the Israeli format after its initial 13-episode order rather than hand out an additional episode pickup. All unaired episodes will continue to run in the show's Sunday at 8 p.m. slot. It's unclear if the series will remain in consideration for a potential second season.
The decision to conclude the drama, which stars Piven as a tech innovator who creates a crowd-sourcing hub to revolutionize crime solving in San Francisco, comes as CBS had been "looking into" the actor following allegations of sexual harassment.
Many will be quick to blame the likely cancellation on Piven's current predicament, but the fact of the matter is that the show never really performed for the network. Wisdom of the Crowd was mediocre out of the gate, and even Sundays where CBS had late-running football coverage couldn't really lift the drama. Its latest live-plus-3 averages only give it a 1.3 rating among adults 18-49 and 8.9 million viewers. Wisdom of the Crowd ranks as the least-watched series on CBS' Sunday lineup, narrowly trailing Madam Secretary — which has critical favor and an affluent audience in its corner. The series was a co-production between Universal Television and CBS Television Studios.
Actress Ariane Bellamar accused Piven of groping her while the duo were on HBO's Entourage. Other women have since come forward with similar allegations against the actor, who called the claims "absolutely false and completely fabricated."
Wisdom of the Crowd was the last of CBS' fall freshman slate to receive word of its future. The network has picked up additional episodes of comedies Young Sheldon and 9JKL and dramas SEAL Team and S.W.A.T. The comedy Me, Myself and I was pulled from the schedule and will not air beyond its initial 13-episode order.

New Pig Spill Kits
Once you know the kind of liquid, you can figure out the type of spill system you want.
New Pig Spill Kits tend to be broken into three groups: universal, oil and chemical. Universal and Oil Spill Kits can be used for non-corrosive liquid spills. Universal Kits can be used for land-based spills, while Oil Kits can be utilized for land or water-born spills to simply soak up oil, not liquid.
Chemical Spill Kits can be used for answering dangerous spills of corrosive or not known fluids. Specific substance kits are also made to neutralize the corrosive fluid or help expel dangerous vapors associated with the substance.
2. What spill volume will you be finding your way through?
This volume is typically on the basis of the biggest measurements of container or your worst instance situation at your facility. In the event that biggest container on-site is a 55-gallon drum, after that select a kit which will contain and take in at the very least that volume.
Brand new Pig offers a multitude of kits, for small amount spills such as a few gallons, to your largest people that answer spills in excess of 100 gallons or maybe more.
3. Where will the Spill Kit be saved or utilized?
You really need to take into consideration perhaps the spill clean-up system will undoubtedly be utilized indoors or out-of-doors, whether you need to the system is portable or stationary, or if the kit container has to be used for the disposal associated with the invested absorbents. UN-rated Overpack/Salvage Drum bins are ideal for shipping waste off-site when it's cleansed up. Various other kits are mobile to assist facilitate quicker reaction, plus some tend to be loaded in portable bins or bags which are ideal for very first responders, to be used in cars or when a grab and get system becomes necessary. Kits in high visibility bins in many cases are favored to rapidly assist locate the system when a spill occurs.
Brand new Pig offers the biggest spill kit container choices into the drip & spill market to help be practical.
There are more items which can be utilized in spill response, but usually perhaps not a part of spill kits:
- Do i would like private defensive gear (PPE), area and restoration services and products, or brooms and shovels?
- Will I require mounting brackets or a protective address?

I don't really have anything else to say on this - I just wanted to put it out there. CNN's "justice" "reporter" is loud, abrasive, and unfair. I don't understand why and how she is on the air, much less on a respected cable channel. Mean and vicious in face and tone, she is on the attack, and that's how she has made her name as a commentator. Maybe she is tolerable in a sound bite, but for a half hour one just feels dirty after watching her.
Besides that, whoever dresses her has horrible fashion sense. Have you seen her yet in the Native American skin top with the turquoise jewelry? Ghastly!
My favourite part of Grace's show (I will catch it only as I flip through channels) is when she goes from brow-beating a mother, who's child has been kidnapped, for not being a better parent, to then instantly shifting to being docile and almost sweet. All the while, her fangs are still showing. And when she throws her "Thank you, fray-und" to her sycophantic callers, I want to throw my shoe at the television.
Amy Poehler does an imitation of Grace on Saturday Night Live that is dead on. She nails Nancy "Without" Grace to the wall. The smug baiting of interviewees, the preconceived verdicts, the self-righteousness – Poehler has it all. But then, Poehler is a genius.
And Nancy Grace is insane.

Nancy Grace Is Insane

i pray it's all just a shtick to get viewership. then again, we all know someone in real life just as venomous as her. i need to check my watch, this is a long 15 minutes she's having.ReplyDelete
"Insane?" You're being nicer than I would :-)ReplyDelete
I like that pic. Makes her look like the bloodthirsty wolf she is...
You don't even have to watch her show to know she's an insane and mean person. just look at her face and it reveals all.ReplyDelete
Dop, you are so right about this. I have only watched her show once and was amazed at the venom that came out of her mouth. It literally made me sick watching her and I vowed never to do so again. I'm just saddened that someone let's her on National TV in order to spout her venom.ReplyDelete

Blog Watch is an open forum similar to Open Forum where any topic can be introduced, but with a focus on New Zealand blogs and social media.
This expands on the aim for Your NZ to be a joint project with the more people contributing and the more variety the better.
A general guideline – post opinion on or excerpts from and links to blog posts or comments of interest, whether they are praise, criticism, pointing out issues or sharing useful information.
If being critical address the issues and don't do personal abuse. Constructive and reasonably balanced criticism is more effective than general moans.
As usual avoid anything that could cause any legal issues such as potential defamation or breaching suppression orders.
Remember – the Blog of the damned well determined to express opinions and hold to account regardless of attempts to shut us up.
Also remember that keeping things civil, legal and factual is more effective and harder to argue against or discredit.
If you want to display screen shots the images will need to be saved on the Internet and a link put in the comment. Sometimes full links don't work, if I see any like this I will try to repair them in the comment when I get time. Note that image links should normally end something like .jpg .jpeg .png etc.
Note that sometimes other blogs get irate if their material is highlighted elsewhere but the Internet is specifically designed to share and repeat information and anyone who comments or puts anything into a public forum should be aware that it could be republished elsewhere (but attribution is essential).
If comments raise issues deserving of a full post I may use content to do a post, and may expand on it.
If anyone has information worthy of a full post you can contact me, details in About.

Thus far, we've heard from voices within the conference: Coaches, presidents and a certain commissioner with a deep interest in the Pac-12 Networks' success. The Pac-12 Hotline's series now veers outside the Pac-12 perimeter, to the sports media world and a group of panelists with no stake in the outcome.
That impartial view is vital to a comprehensive assessment of the networks.
(Also vital: What the fans think.)
My goal with this installment was to collect feedback from a handful of panelist across the media landscape — from journalists, academics and analysts alike.
I included participants who who don't watch the Pac12Nets regularly (or at all), and that was intentional.
After all, limited distribution is part of the Pac-12 Networks story — a significant part of the story, in fact.
Each panelist was asked to:
1. Grade and assess the Pac-12 Networks using whatever criteria he/she sees fit.
2. Address the stalemate with DirecTV and the potential outcomes.
3. Peer into the future of the Pac-12 Networks: Should the conference hold tight to the current model, sell equity, eliminate the regional feeds (or something else)?
Oh, and I took the liberty of including my own assessment.
*** Paola Boivin
Who she is: Former columnist for the Arizona Republic, now professor of sports journalism at ASU's renown Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications.
Grade: C+
Comment: "Would be higher if I could watch it more often! (I have DirecTV.) I enjoy the studio shows, much of the talent and the overall cosmetics. More than anything, I like a network committed to covering a conference that sometimes seems like an afterthought on other networks. (Yes, I'm a card-carrying member of the East Coast Bias Exists Club). That being said, something is off-kilter when athletic directors and administrators grumble publicly about revenue and when networks like the BIg Ten and SEC generate far more broadcast coin. And I thought by now, its reach would be greater."
DirecTV: "It all comes down to the decision to go at it alone rather than teaming with a major TV partner. Isn't that why the other conference deals are more fruitful? I think DirecTV, in its negotiations, has exploited the Pac-12's lack of muscle."
What's next: "Something has to change. Sell equity and secure a TV partner seems to be the most successful formula. I respect Larry Scott's vision immensely and believe he has done a lot for the conference (I remember what it used to be). But the Pac-12 Networks needs a major facelift."
*** Ken Fang
Who he is: Associate editor at Awful Announcing, which writes frequently about college sports programming and distribution issues.
Grade: F
Comment: "As a DirecTV subscriber, I give Pac-12 Networks a hard "F" grade. I've been waiting for the networks to appear on my system. Haven't shown up yet."
DirecTV: "This has gotten to the point where both sides need to sit down and hash things out, but I'm not optimistic."
What's next: "Larry Scott should look at the successes of the Big Ten Network and SEC Network for guidance. B1G partnered with Fox while SEC went with ESPN. Both networks understand the cable game and bundled their channels with their other networks. Pac-12 has no one to partner with. It should sell an equity stake to either ESPN, Fox, NBC or Turner so it can be bundled and improve distribution. The current model isn't working."
*** John Ourand
Who he is: Reporter for the SportsBusiness Daily and arguably the most respected sports-business journalist in the country.
Grade: C-
Comment: "It's easy to get focused on the Pac-12's tough revenue and distribution comparisons to other conference channels. But the channels are profitable and give the schools control over 850 live events per year – many of which would never be on television."
DirecTV: "When the Big Ten Network launched 10 years ago, cable companies did not carry it at first. But they soon faced a subscriber revolt and signed deals for the channel within a year. When Pac-12 Networks launched five years ago, DirecTV did not carry it. But it faced no consumer revolt and realized it could live without the Pac-12. I find it hard to believe that DirecTV would do a deal now without major concessions from the Pac-12."
What's next: "I expect the conference to look at some sort of direct-to-consumer offering (think an over-the-top service) to get consumers to sample its programming."
*** Dan Shevchik
Who he is: A former competitive swimmer and Harvard graduate, Shevchik is the VP for Sports Media Advisors, a boutique firm with clients throughout the sports world. He focuses on rights valuations and multi-platform media strategies.
Grade: A-
Comment: "Based on the strategic choices at the time, I would give them an A-. It was a higher-risk, higher-reward play that hasn't turned out to be as lucrative as hoped to date, especially in comparison with others. The end of the story is still TBD though."
DirecTV: "Only the people in the room for those discussions really know what happened. At a basic level, the Pac-12 and DirecTV don't see eye-to-eye on the value of the network. Given the ever-evolving media landscape, I would think that at some point the stalemate will get resolved."
What's next: "As an outsider, it's hard to comment. Any of those paths (stay the course, sell equity, eliminate regional feeds) might be optimal depending on the details of the valuation, potential partners, cash flow needs, ongoing costs, etc. It does seem like selling some equity to a partner who could provide negotiating leverage might make sense, depending on the valuation they can get."
*** Jon Wilner
Who he is: Guy with computer who has authored a sentence or two about the Pac-12 Networks over the years.
Grade: B-
Comment: I'll comment with a question: What would Pac-12 athletics look like today if the networks had not been created? Would that alternative reality be better or worse for fans and the conference? Probably a tick worse. Remember: Of all the households that would want the Pac-12 Networks in a perfect world, the vast majority have them in this world. The supply, production and delivery of content is a greater success than the unmet demand is a failure. The issue is the model: In creating the seven-feed structure with 850 live events, the conference overestimated the desire for its content but locked itself into a cost structure that forced it to prioritize subscription fees over distribution.
On DirecTV: The second-tier content on the Pac-12 Networks simply doesn't generate the demand to force DirecTV's hand. The likelihood of a deal cannot be discounted entirely, but I would be more than mildly surprised. The Pac-12 cannot afford to meet DirecTV's pricing terms, and DirecTV has zero reason to cave on its demands. The sides were so far apart at the last serious negotiations — prior to the start of the 2015 football season — that the Pac-12 presidents voted 11-0 against the proposed deal. (WSU was without a president at the time and abstained.)
What's next: I'll examine this topic in an upcoming installment of the Hotline series, with commentary from folks who know far more than I do. But keep in mind that Larry Scott has hooked every shred of Pac-12 content to the next round of Tier 1 negotiations, which should ramp up in 2022-23. Each year we draw closer to that window, the less reason exists for the conference has to abandon its current model. It would decimate the long-term value accrued at the expense of short-term cash flow.

Jealousy: generally refers to the thoughts or feelings of insecurity, fear, and concern over a relative lack of possessions or safety. Jealousy can consist of one or more emotions such as anger, resentment, inadequacy, helplessness or disgust. (google result).
We are all relatively familiar with jealousy aren't we? It's something we hear about often, when someone picks on us or ridicule us, our friends and family will always say 'they're doing it because they're jealous'.
Most of the time, what people tell us is true. They are jealous.
But this post isn't about getting real about people being jealous of us. This post is about getting real with jealousy we feel ourselves.
I'm going to be honest with you all here. I have spent most of my life a very, very jealous person. I throw my hands up and admit it. I get stupidly bitter and jealous of other people. It is (sadly) a feeling that comes very naturally to me.
I think a majority of it stems from years of bullying and comparison. If you've read some of my other blog posts you'll know about a lot of my unfortunate self-esteem issues. The problem is, when you have a low self-esteem jealousy becomes a natural second nature.
Ugh, she got lucky again.
What have they got that I don't?
I know I'm the only one who has experienced negative jealous feelings on a daily basis. Particularly with social media being as frequently used as it is now, we find ourselves in an overly competitive zone, constantly comparing ourselves to other people's filtered lives.
I've never exactly been the hot popular one in any group throughout my life, this isn't necessarily a negative thing I know, but throughout my life this was something that really triggered my depression.
I grew up with a pretty sister who was also extremely popular (unlike me) and I have always had friends that I consider to be much prettier than I am, I had nothing against this – or so I thought, but as time went on it really started to hit home how extreme my envy was.
I was constantly 'unlucky' with things and never having much luck whereas people around me were so effortless. I am always around people who can just go anywhere and have this natural likeable vibe about them, whether it be personality or the way they look. I on the other hand, generally a little bit invisible in comparison. Not the kind of cute invisible though. You know what I'm talking about, the invisible friend you get in all those classic movies who has a little cuteness about them which makes someone finally 'see them' as better than the others and falls for them etc.
Yeah, that still hasn't quite happened for me haha.
But there are a few things I have learned recently about jealousy. Some positives and some negatives. So I wanted to share these lessons with you;
Jealousy is all in our head. Sounds obvious, but it's true. We forget when it matters that every single human being has their own view and opinion. This means that just because I think my friends are prettier or better than me, doesn't mean that everyone else does. I have seen over the years my most stunning friends get referred to as 'ugly' and 'unappealing'. As much as it shocks me to my core when I hear it, and I feel obliged to shout 'sorry mate but are you blind?' (as any friend would really), I forget that actually, this person just doesn't see my friend the way I do. And that's okay.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" a well-known phrase with a lot of truth. But this is also relevant for other areas of life as well. Something I might see as 'lucky' or a big positive to someone's life isn't necessarily the same positive in someone else's view.
Another important thing I picked up on, and probably the most important factor is this:
I don't like the person I am when I'm jealous.
When we are threatened by others or jealous, it can make us very bitter. Bitterness then makes us mean. I learned over the years that sometimes I didn't even realise I was doing it, but the way I felt about myself reflected in my behaviour towards other people.
I would say horrible things, make catty passive aggressive remarks as 'jokes' thinking that it wasn't doing any harm, sometimes it didn't. Some people can ignore negative vibes towards them and be happy in themselves. But what's important here isn't really how someone else felt about what I did, it's about how I acted.
Over time, I have come to realise that jealousy does in fact get you absolutely nowhere. So what if another girl I know on the gram is always getting all the likes from all the guys that I want to like my stuff? So what if someone else got the more positive attention in the workplace? Okay so another person has managed to achieve something I've always dreamt of doing, so?!
Me having jealous or bitter feelings towards someone else is not going to change the fact that the events are happening. Sulking about it all or being catty to someone because I'm intimidated if anything, will just make me more unlikeable to people who I probably wish would like me more. Hating other people for what I don't have will not make my life any better or easier.
It's like that hallelujah moment in Mean Girls isn't it really? Where Cady finally realised that hating on someone else and being a 'mean girl' wasn't going to change anything for the better, all she could do was solve the problem in front of her. The problem in front of me, is me. In order for anything to work out for me, I need to be the change of mentality that doesn't automatically feel threatened by every other person who I think is better off than me.
The positive energy has to come from within.
Of course, I know jealousy will never go away completely. It is part of all our human emotions, to have a good life we have to experience all our emotions. But I can tone down what triggers my jealousy and help make myself a better person. See myself in a more positive light then just the invisible one.
What are your personal battles with jealousy or negative feelings? Feel free to drop me a message and discuss x

So trifling –
Going out and berry-picking.
Then at once your eyes pick out
What mind does not.
Fruits few, and you've
A doubled effort,
Legs now filled with lactic acid
For the berries are so separate, so far apart
And so far spread that you've a stretch
To pick one cluster
And an equal mental strength
To muster.
Berries big but water-filled,
You fill your pail with ease and skill
Glad that you own much ground
And have such land to walk around.
You know that you have filed your last
Holes, hills and hindrances regardless.
Stumbling – but it's spongy,
Falling – but it's mossy,
You've succeeded,
Your success half-litered and not needed;
You've already liters lidded.
Temperature about to drop
Already showing signs of dipping,
Wind is up
And there is no conclusive feeling;
Berries that are season's last!
You hope you'll be alive and kicking
Next year when it's time for picking,
Now that picking time seems past.

You will of course come across more and more adults outside your family as you get older. You can get real benefits from a relationship with an adult who is not your parent or carer; they can give you a new perspective on life, introduce you to new things, and bring out new aspects of your character.
Sometimes, though, these relationships can get muddled or too intense, particularly if you're not happy at home. Find out how to keep things happy, positive and within appropriate boundaries with teachers, employers, and others.

When it comes to kids, I've learned that they love the simple flavors when it comes to cupcakes. After consulting with my 9 year old nephew (a self-proclaimed kiddie cupcake connoisseur), he told me to make both yellow and chocolate cupcakes. And that I did. However,I couldn't just whip up any regular old yellow and chocolate cupcakes though. Instead, I added some sour cream to each batter which really made the cupcakes moist without adding any additional flavor. For the frosting, I made a classic vanilla bean buttercream.
Yellow Sour Cream Cupcakes
recipe from Cupcakery
recipe from Cupcakery
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 large eggs
2 cups sugar
1 cup canola oil
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
Preheat the oven to 350° degrees. Line cupcake pans or spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment or beaters, beat the eggs and sugar until they are thickened and lightened to a cream color. Beat for about 2 minutes on medium high speed. Be sure to scrape the sides of the bowl while your mixing. Blend in the oil and vanilla. Mix in the sour cream until no white streaks remain.
Mix in the flour mixture alternating with the milk until it is incorporated and the batter is smooth. Spoon batter into cupcake cups. Bake 20 - 23 minutes or until the cupcakes are lightly brown on top and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes on a wire rack for 30 minutes before frosting.
Chocolate Sour Cream Cupcakes
recipe from Daydreamer Desserts
recipe from Daydreamer Desserts
1 1/2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon instant espresso
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup water
Preheat the oven to 350° degrees. Line cupcake pans or spray with non-stick spray. Set aside.
In a double broiler melt the unsweetened and semisweet chocolate. Stir until chocolate has melted and is smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a separate bowl sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2-3 minutes until fluffy, stopping to scrape the sides of the bowl if necessary. Reduce speed to low, and carefully pour in the melted chocolate just until combined. Add the eggs one at a time being careful not to over beat but making sure the eggs have blended into the batter.
On medium speed, add the vanilla and instant espresso beat until creamy for about a minute. Mix in the sour cream until it has been incorporated well and no visible white streaks remain.
On low speed, add half of the flour, mix until just incorporated, and mix in the water. Finally add in remaining flour and mix until it is incorporated and the batter looks smooth.
Fill each liner with 1/3 cup of the batter. Bake for about 18-20 minutes until the tops feel firm and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes on a wire rack for 30 minutes before frosting.
Vanilla Bean Buttercream Frosting:
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar (10 ounces)
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon heavy cream
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar (10 ounces)
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon heavy cream
In a standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the butter at medium-high speed until smooth, about 20 seconds. Using a paring knife, scrape seeds from vanilla bean into butter and beat mixture at medium-high speed to combine, about 15 seconds.
Add confectioners' sugar and salt; beat at medium-low speed until most of the sugar is moistened, about 1 minute. Scrape down the bowl and beat at medium speed until mixture is fully incorporated, about 30 seconds; scrape bowl, add vanilla and heavy cream, and beat at medium speed until incorporated, about 20 seconds, then increase speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down bowl once or twice. Pipe the filling into a pastry bag and frost the filled cupcakes as desired.

Four Female DC Authors to Put on Your Summer Reading List
Local literary talent abounds in the nation's capital, and summer is the perfect time to add some great page-turners to your reading resume. Head to your favorite memorial along the Mall and get engrossed in a historical fiction; spend the day in a coffee shop window falling in love with mysterious and layered characters; hit the Potomac (with plenty of snacks and sunscreen) for an afternoon-long float and read. Whatever you do, don't miss these standout female writers from the DC area.
Michelle Brafman
DC local Michelle Brafman dabbled in arts ranging from coffee making to film making before identifying her literary passion and talent. The witty, yet heartfelt prose writer recognizes her creative and undulating path as essential to crafting the artist she is today and now works to help others find their creative voices as a creative writing teacher, workshop organizer and the founder of "Yeah Write" writing coaching. Her 2014, We Named Them All: Stories, takes an intimate, yet often humorous and always poignant, look into the lives of a couple facing recurring failed pregnancies. Washing the Dead, her recently released novel from Prospect Park Books, is at once spiritual, heartbreaking and illuminating. The novel tells the story of a young woman, Barbara Blumfield, who must uncover painful family secrets in order to forgive and redeem her estranged mother. Put both of these reads on your list and check out Brafman's website and upcoming speaking and writing events in the DC area.
Trice Hickman
Trice Hickman grew up in North Carolina, but traveled to distant lands on the wings of countless novels and stories. She earned a Master's Degree from Wake Forest University and worked in education and the corporate world until loosing her job left her daunted, yet ready to take on the literary world that had always inspired her. She published her first novel, Unexpected Interruptions in 2011 and the book went on to top several bestseller lists and raked in a handful of literary awards. She has since published Keeping Secrets and Telling Lies, Playing the Hand You're Dealt, Breaking All My Rules and Looking For Trouble, and her newest novel Secret Indiscretion is due to release in July, 2015 as the first book in her Dangerous Love Series. Check out Hickman's website and all of novels from this DC-based fiction powerhouse for a literary escape filled with romance, suspense and drama.
Laura Hillenbrand
DC area born and raised, critically acclaimed author Laura Hillenbrand brings to life the heart wrenching and inspiring stories of individuals facing extreme adversity. Primarily confined to her home by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) – her experience with CFS is chronicled in her award-winning essay A Sudden Illness – Hillenbrand lives vicariously through her valiant characters. Her first novel, Seabiscuit: An American Legend, spent 42 weeks atop the New York Times Bestseller list and went on to become the basis for the Academy Award nominated major motion picture, Seabiscuit. Her 2010 nonfiction masterpiece, Unbroken, tells the incredible story of WWII veteran Luis Zamperini, an Olympic athlete who survived a devastating plane crash and time as a prisoner of war. The book was named best nonfiction book of the year by TIME Magazine and made into a film released in 2014. See Hillenbrand's website for more information about her life, her work and how to join local book groups.
Sarah Pekkanen
This DCer got her start on the DC journalism scene, chasing politicians for interviews and enjoying a brief stint as a correspondent for e! Entertainment Network. She transitioned into fiction writing with her breakout novel The Opposite of Me. She has since published Skipping a Beat, These Girls, The Best of Us and Catching Air, which have enjoyed international bestseller status. Her newest novel, Things You Won't Say, released in May of 2015, chronicles the story of a family in the midst of the aftermath of a tragic shooting and a marriage in crisis. From her first work of fiction – an unpublished masterpiece entitled Miscellaneous Tales and Poems written in 1980 on Ragedy Ann stationary – to her most recent, Pekkanen's novels are not to be missed. See her website for more information about this colorful author, synopses of all her works and upcoming book events.

Miami Dolphins
2012 record: 7-9
Last Super Bowl win: 1973
The quest continues to bring our readers five unique tidbits about about a different team every weekday from now until September 5th. We kicked off the series Monday with the Buffalo Bills and now travel nearly 1,400 miles south for our next AFC East franchise.
1) Unlike the Dolphins, the team's ownership group has a lot of hardware.
This season will mark 40 years since the team last won a championship, but Miami's star-studded front office certainly hasn't suffered from a lack of hardware. Minority ownership partners Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan and Fergie have a combined 13 Grammy Awards between them while fellow team investors Venus and Serena Williams have a combined total of 36 Grand Slam wins (singles and doubles).
2) There are two football-playing Alonzo Highsmith's in Miami, but the one on the Dolphins is "Jack".
Green Bay Packers executive (and former University of Miami star running back) Alonzo Highsmith has two sons named Alonzo Highsmith Jr. and they are both playing football in South Florida right now. One, an undrafted rookie linebacker from Arkansas, goes by his nickname "Jack" and is trying to make the Dolphins. The other, who goes by A.J., is a senior safety with the Hurricanes.
3) Darius Rucker seems less emotional about the team these days.
As lead singer of Hootie and the Blowfish, he claimed he was "such a baby because the Dolphins make me cry." Last month, the now solo country singer told an ESPN.com chatroom that he's expecting a better season from the team.
"Hopefully sneak into the playoffs at 10-6," Rucker said. "But [they're] still a couple of years away from the Super Bowl."
4) First-round pick Dion Jordan should meet Dion Jordan.
After the Dolphins selected the athletic defensive end from Oregon with the third overall pick, NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said, "He's got the potential to be the player that I compare him to, which is Jason Taylor, who ironically played for the Miami Dolphins."
Perhaps the Dolphins' Dion Jordan should be introduced to the man who owns DionJordan.com, a life coach named Dion C. Jordan, who refers to himself as "The Potentialist."
5) The Dolphins will look slightly different this season.
As we detailed on For The Win in April, the Dolphins will be wearing all-white home uniforms with a more modernized dolphin in 2013.
Coming Wednesday: The five most important useless things about the New England Patriots.

Virus Protection for Windows
Prominent Reasons Why You Need Virus Protection for Windows
Do I really need Virus Protection for Windows? Well, living in the modern internet age is not just a blessing, but could also become a curse. A great deal of danger in the internet landscape has become a matter of discussion worldwide.
Internet users have often been scapegoats to viruses, malware, and spyware attacks. Many times, we let the hazards be overshadowed by the fruits of technology; what we ought not to ignore is the safety and security of our personal information. Cyber attacks are intentional and intended to cause harm to computers. Since nearly everyone spends a reasonable amount of time online both professionally and personally, computer security becomes an absolute must.
Here are the reasons you need to install and run antivirus software on your computer system.
- Safe Online Purchase
Online shopping is not something that you are not aware of in the modern world. Everyone, at some point, has purchased something through online sites such as Amazon, eBay, Fandango, and so on.
In case you are hit with some spyware, chances of leaking personal information such as internet surfing history, credit, or debit card information increase largely.
Spyware gains unauthorized access to systems and could share information with third parties without the consent of the users. An antivirus program with payment protection detects and eliminates spyware for safe online purchases.
- Safeguard From Phishing Attacks
You are probably no stranger to computer attacks that happen in the internet landscape. Emails, text messages, and phone calls are some tools that shrewd hackers use to deceive users.
Such emails and messages masquerade as legitimate but are intended to direct you to a fake site. Many people fall prey to identity theft when they enter their account information on malicious or sham sites.
Users need to be very careful and check the mail id and name of the sender before clicking on any link. Also, virus protection for Windows provides the best security by sending personalized protection alerts.
- Password Protection
A small loophole or a security flaw is an opportunity for hackers and virus creators. Short and weak passwords are often vulnerable to attacks.
Creators of viruses and spyware design software to automatically guess and detect the passwords of the users. So, users need to make a strong password while creating an account.
It is imperative to understand that passwords are the first layer of protection when doing online shopping or accessing social media sites. Strong passwords are more safe and reliable than weak passwords.
- Comprehensive Protection
Surfing the internet without any security is similar to entering a battlefield without any weapon. A lot of computer users are infected with some kind of virus and malware because of the lack of safety of the computer systems.
Locking the door doesn't mean a potential hacker cannot invade personal space. Truth be told, technology has made it possible to let in intruders.
IoT devices are all in the rage these days. They are becoming ubiquitous in the modern world because of the remote control feature. As the demand for such devices is skyrocketing, IT headlines are containing virus and security threat issues. An antivirus is the final layer of security that just not protect your computer, but also devices that you use in your house or business premises.
Ensure Your Data Safety in the Most Appropriate Manner
Comodo Antivirus is among the global leaders in the industry, serving fantastic security features and protecting critical information of the users worldwide.
Comodo has gained goodwill in the industry for authenticating, validating, and securing the networks of individuals, mid and large-scale businesses. The company takes the lead in offering comprehensive protection of devices.
The security centers of the company provide round the clock service, so there is no need to worry about anything. Comodo Antivirus has your back!
The software works effectively on all the devices, including smartphones, tablets, Macs, and computers. Apart from scanning and blocking malware, spam, and other threats, it acts as parental control.
Worried or concerned parents can use the software to monitor the online activities of their children from anywhere at any time.
The Endnote
Computer abuse is soaring high in the digital landscape. Living in such an environment without antivirus software is quite dangerous. So, it is the time to safeguard yourself and your loved ones from becoming a victim of cyber attacks, threats, and data loss.
Everyone with a computer and internet connection needs virus protection for Windows. Comodo Antivirus warns you of risky sites and downloads by sending personalized alerts. It offers modern security features that serve the requirements of individuals, parents, and entrepreneurs.

I am, once again, teaching a Disaster Planning and Recovery course at the OceanTeacher Academy in Ostend, Belgium. Today we learned about air drying books which can be very tedious and time consuming. Each book needs to have plain paper inserted between the covers and every few pages to wick up the water. Once the paper is wet, the paper needs to be changed for dry paper to continue to wick up the water to hasten the drying of the pages in the books.
We also learned that we needed to look at our building inside and out to see if there is anything that could become a disaster. Librarian Jan Haspeslagh gave us a tour of his library and pointed out things that are problems for his library. In particular, this library has drain spouts that are disconnected.

In the span of 48 hours, Oaks Christian wide receiver Jordan Payton switched commitments from Cal to Washington to UCLA. Before that, as a junior, he verbally committed to USC.
He told a third of the schools in the Pac-12 Conference that he was going to play football for them.
He is one of the top recruits in the country, a talented receiver who can also play defensive back. He is tall, 6 feet 3, and fast, ranked 15th in the nation at wide receiver by Scout.com and Rivals.com. He was the 29th-ranked wide receiver in the nation by ESPNU. He would have been a valuable piece to any college offense.
But he might have become a victim of a relentless recruiting process that demands high school players make decisions before they are ready.
"It's crazy, but the people have to understand this process is crazy," Payton told the Los Angeles Times on Wednrsday. "You're giving an 18-year-old kid a decision of a lifetime. I wanted to make sure I made the right decision."
That decision left some coaching staffs and fans in the Pac 12 a bit upset.
By the end of signing day, Payton's Twitter account had been disabled. He wasn't taking phone calls for interviews and only talking to a few close friends and family once he committed to UCLA. ESPNLosAngeles made several attempts throughout the day to reach Payton to no avail.
Payton's crazy day actually started last month, when he was all but obligated to declare where he was going to play in college during the U.S. Army All-American Bowl. He told a nationally televised audience he was going to Cal. After reconsidering his decision to go to USC as a junior, colleges across the country began recruiting Payton hard.
He had offers from Notre Dame and Michigan in addition to Cal. Even after he said he was going to Cal, Payton still made a visit to Washington. Two of the coaches who recruited Payton to Cal were plucked by Washington coach Steve Sarkisian, but Payton decided he wanted to follow the coaches.
He again told a nationally televised audience on ESPNU on Tuesday that he was switching his commitment to Washington. But that commitment lasted a little less than a day.
Oaks Christian coach Bill Redell said immaturity played a part in Payton's decision to go to UCLA after verbally committing to three other schools beforehand.
Redell placed some of the blame on the college coaches and the recruitment process as well.
"Colleges today, nobody pays attention to commitment," Redell said. "If the colleges don't pay attention to it, kids don't pay attention to it."
When USC began recruiting Payton, Redell said, it was by Pete Carroll and his staff before the NCAA sanctions took away scholarships and banned the team from playing in bowl games or in the postseason.
After Carroll left USC to coach the Seattle Seahawks in the NFL, Payton was recruited by Cal, plus other schools.
On Tuesday, Payton said he was changing his commitment from Cal to Washington. Redell said the two coaches who recruited him to Cal influenced Payton's decision.
"Then he slides up to Washington," Redell said, "because of his feeling toward those two guys."
But that commitment lasted less than a day. On Wednesday, Payton decided to ultimately sign with UCLA.
"I think he wanted to go to UCLA all along," Redell said. "But UCLA didn't get into the picture until late."
Payton wasn't the only recruit to change his mind on national signing day. Alemany's Jerico Richardson, a UCLA commit, changed his mind Wednesday and ended up signing with Nevada.
Inglewood's Devian Shelton was another recruit who changed his mind, ending up with USC after committing to Oregon State.
West Covina's Chris Solomon decided on Nevada after giving Colorado his verbal commitment.
A high school football player having a change of heart on national signing day is nothing new. But a player changing his mind three times in about a day just might be a first.

The Turkish ETF has been one of the best-performing single-country funds so far this year, with year-to-date returns of over 22%. But has the fund's diversity helped or hurt? TUR is both bank-heavy and extremely concentrated, with 62% of its holdings tied up in its top 10 holdings.
However, there are only five Turkish stocks that trade regularly in ADR form, so TUR definitely gives U.S. traders access to companies they would otherwise not be able to get into without a foreign brokerage account. The question is whether the 89 non-ADR stocks in TUR have been worth the relatively high (0.65%) expenses that this ETF charges. If so, investors are getting value from the fund. If not, then they might be better off simply buying the ADRs.
Turkish ADRs have had a great year The ADRs account for about 38% of TUR's holdings. Top holdings Turkiye Garanti Bankasi TKGBY and Akbank AKBTY between them add up to 24% of the fund immediately -- almost half of its total financial allocation in only two stocks. As it happens, both of these banks have done extremely well so far this year, up 43% and 31%, respectively.
Brewer Anadolu Efes Biracilik AEBZY brings in another 3.93% of TUR and a 20.8% YTD return. Industrial conglomerate KOC KHOLY, up 30% YTD, weighs in at 3.4% of TUR, and Turkcell TKC, at 7.04% of the portfolio, is down minimally on the year. Even though these five stocks add up to less than 40% of TUR's holdings, they generated more than half of the fund's performance so far this year.
In other words, the 60% of the Turkish market that TUR does a great job in making available to U.S. investors has underperformed by a substantial margin. It is true that TUR opens up some additional bank exposure and some great industrial opportunities that just are not available in ADR form: refiners like Tupras, manufacturers like Haci Omer Sabanci, convenience store chains like BIM. But if you had simply applied TUR's relative weightings to the five ADRs and skipped everything else, the five-stock portfolio would have generated a 31% return so far this year . . . essentially a 10 percentage point outperformance after fees.
Granted, an index fund like TUR is not about stock picking, but about diversity and the ability to track a wide market. But so far, while TUR has done great on an absolute basis, it has failed to track the official Turkish XU100 index, which is up 26% so far this year. Eventually, global capital will drill down into the Turkish market and then those 89 non-ADR holdings in TUR will outperform. That simply has not happened yet.

The Brevity of Life
21 October 2018
Psalm 39:4-7
As many of us often do, David finds himself contemplating life, death and what we are to do with the time in between the cradle and the grave in Psalm 39:4-7. And while the rest of the world may fret about aging, death and wasted lives, we can put our confidence in Jesus Christ – in whom we find our great hope, purpose and eternal life.
Brett Meador
Senior Pastor
Brett is our senior pastor. He and his family moved to Portland in 1996 to start Athey Creek Christian Fellowship. As our church has grown, Brett's main focus has remained the same: pointing people to Jesus by teaching through God's Word, verse-by-verse, book-by-book and chapter-by-chapter. Brett and his wife, Debbie, have three children: Brooke, Joey and Casey.

How Hashem's Tests Transform You
SimchaMinute by Rabbi Avigdor Miller
The test is not for discovering the soul of a man. It is rather a gift from Heaven. The potential greatness of a man is transformed into a higher form of greatness by the physical accomplishment of the virtuous intent. Thus, Abraham became greater by the act than he was before he had bound Isaac as a sacrifice." — Rejoice, O Youth

Some of you will recognise Tilly the Scaredy Cat, who has been in our family for about 14 years.
Here she is, looking rather elegant in her leopard skin igloo (fake fur – don't worry!).
Tilly has been a notably timid cat for ever. I have a pretty good idea why and it all stems back to a visit to the vet when she was little …
It was clear that Tilly needed to be neutered. Her behaviour as certain times was becoming far from lady-like, and extremely noisy. So the appointment was made, and one fine day I scooped her into a cat carrier and walked her round to the local vet, just round the block from our house. In fact, the end of our back garden just about shared a fence with their garden.
That evening I left to go and collect her, asking my daughter if she wanted to come too. "Will there be stitches? I don't think so then."
I got to the vet, was told all had gone very well, paid the bill and they popped into the back room and returned with my cat box. I peeped in – mostly, I must admit, to demonstrate what a caring owner I am.
"Oh! This isn't my cat!"
"Are you sure?"
Slightly silly question, but I suppose the receptionist was beginning to panic.
"Well, yes. My cat is small and glossy black and white. This one is big, fluffy and grey."
"Hold on, I'll go and check."
It didn't take long. Back in a flash she announced "That's the only cat left!"
"However, she's not mine, so I won't be taking her. If you could find out where my cat is and let me know, I'll come and collect her.
Back home to the tentative enquiry "Is she all right?"
"Apparently she's fine. They just don't know where she is."
Half an hour later the phone rang with the news that Tilly was now back at the vet's. Apparently a lady had collected without peeping into the cage. Plainly a crucial step in collection of animals from the vet. She had told the vet, "I wondered why she ran away and hid when I got her home."
So round I went and into the back room this time, where poor Tilly was leaning in a mildly catatonic state against the bars of a cage. Drooling just a little. Eyes slightly staring. But then she was in the middle of a very bad day: been taken to a strange place where she had been operated on then, on waking, kidnapped, taken in a car (something she had only done once before), released into a strange house, recaptured and taken in the car back to the place where she had been operated on.
It's not that surprising she has always expected the worst and likes to be left in peace.
However, it hasn't affected her health badly, and she is now a venerable creature with a healthy appetite.
In Tilly's honour, I've added a couple of cat pictures to my gallery and they've been framed and are currently up for auction to UK buyers in our ebay shop. Hope you like them!

"Options" section
The "Options" subsection of the "Project" section allows you to configure various protection parameters:
- Memory Protection – this option allows you to secure the image of the file in memory from any changes (data integrity is checked for all sections that do not have the WRITABLE attribute). Image integrity check is performed before passing the control to the original entry point of the program. If integrity is violated, a corresponding message is shown and the program stops execution.
- Import Protection – this option allows hiding the list of API the protected program uses from a cracker. We recommend using this option along with packing of the output file.
- Resource Protection – this option encrypts resources of the program (except icons, manifests and other service resources).
- Pack the Output File – this option allows you to pack the protected file to reduce its size. The application is unpacked automatically when the protected file is executed. The entire unpacking goes without any disk writing, completely in RAM.
When using this option, we also recommend to include EntryPoint to the list of protected objects.
When the program starts, after the code is unpacked the control is passed to EntryPoint. If the code of EntryPoint is virtualized, this code will be executed on the same VM interpreter as the code of the unpacker itself. Virtualization of EntryPoint combined with packing of the protected file prevents manual unpacking of the protected file, as in this case an intruder has to restore EntryPoint code to get a working file image.
- Additional – additional levels of protection:
- Watermarks – allows adding watermarks to the project.
- VM Segments – When the file is compiled, new segments will be added to it to the place where various system data are stored (virtualized and mutated code, VM interpreters, watermarks etc.). This option allows you to specify names for these new segments. We recommend changing the standard ".vmp" name of segments to something else (for example ".UPX").
- Strip Debug Information – removing of debug information impedes analysis of the code by a cracker.
- Strip Relocations – some compilers (i.e. Delphi) create a relocation table for EXE files that are not used by the operating system to load EXE files. If the option is enabled, the space occupied by relocation table is be used for VM needs.
- Debugger – this option prevents debugging of the protected file. There are 2 types of debuggers: User-mode debuggers (OllyDBG, WinDBG etc.) and Kernel-mode debuggers(SoftICE, Syser and others). Debugger detection is performed before passing control to the entry point of the program. If a debugger is detected, a corresponding message is shown and the program stops execution.
- Virtualiztion Tools – this option prohibits executing the protected file in various virtual environments: VMware, Virtual PC, VirtualBox, Sandboxie. Detection of virtualization is performed before passing control to the entry point of the program. If a virtual environment is detected, a corresponding message is shown and the program stops execution.
Here you can customize messages the program displays when it detects a debugger, a virtualization tool, if the file is corrupted or when there's an attempt to execute the code protected by a serial number.
Licensing parameters
Choose a project file created in the license manager as a licensing parameter file. By default, the current project file is used.

Toronto Skunk Removal
Skunks: The Problem
Skunks, as most are too familiar with, can pose a very serious problem during encounters with humans. They stink! They are famous for the deterrent they emit to dissuade predators from attacking. This liquid is absolutely repugnant, and very difficult to remove from clothes and skin. Skunks produce an almost oil-like, viscous liquid as a deterrent, and this can be extremely troublesome to deal with as an unsuspecting victim. The mist of this liquid emitted from below their tails can travel as far as 10 feet from the point of projection. Undoubtedly, if Skunks are roaming around your home, business or commercial building establishment in Toronto, you are going to want to remove them as fast as possible.
A common misconception regarding the liquid deterrent is that it is harmful to humans. Although highly discomforting, it will never cause any significant damage to victims. This liquid is used as a defensive technique against luring predators such as wolves and coyotes.
The 360 Wildlife Solution
We understand that Skunks could be interfering with your peace of mind, business relations, or personal comfort. We have a team of highly skilled animal removal technicians that are trained in the humane, safe and time-effective removal of animals such as Skunks, Raccoons, Squirrels, Bats and Birds. Skunk damage is relatively easy to spot, and for obvious reasons, doesn't take much technological sophistication to identify. From here, we proceed by determining any possible local entry points that they may have employed to enter your home attic, office building or restaurant in Toronto. Apart from the removal of these pesky animals, our staff can teach you a bit about how to prevent Skunks from revisiting the premises.

Do you get as frustrated as I get when you see an overweight person excuse their obesity by saying "I tried dieting and it doesn't work for me." They are convinced that their genetic makeup is completely different from that of the majority of the human population, and that their DNA somehow gains weight even if all they eat is diet lettuce (hey maybe I could sell that?)
Can you believe there are some people that subscribe to a similar belief with respect to their financial life? They "try" saving or budgeting, but after realizing they aren't millionaires by weeks end, they give up. These people are straight up wacko. It's like they are trying to run a sprint without knowing they signed up for a marathon. News Flash: Your financial situation wont change overnight.
Personal Finance is about endurance. In reality, it's a lifelong race, that only ends once you find yourself in a casket. It's about continually bettering your situation so that, over time, your overall quality of life is improved. When you look at PF with a short term perspective, chances are very little will change. You can't eat a salad for lunch and expect to weigh 20 pounds less at the end of the day…can you? NO! So don't can't expect your budget to make you millions over night.
The big life lesson I have learned because of personal finance: Patience. That's right mother truckers, PF is all about patience. I want so badly for my student loan to disappear, but I know I have 400 more days before that dream becomes reality. If you aren't willing to focus your attention on managing your money better, it's not even worth trying. Quit now, run up your credit card bill, and find a friend to complain to about how difficult your life is.

Jaguar's forest habitat burnt up in barbecue briquettes
This is another depressing story about the destruction of the world's ancient forests. I recently wrote about old Swedish forest being used to make toilet paper and today I'm going to address the destruction of tropical forest inhabited by Jaguars in Paraguay to make briquettes for barbecues in the West. So when you're grilling your sausages and steaks on your patios, verandas and balconies have a thought for the jaguar, one of the world's most magnificent animals whose habitat is being burnt away to help entertain people in Europe.
In the UK, Supagrill charcoal briquettes have been on sale and still are at a DIY store called Wickes. The briquettes are supplied by Bricapar. The company has a large charcoal operation in the Chaco forest in Paraguay. Their production line is fuelled by slow-growing hardwood trees which are cleared from ancient forests. It is an area which is home to many of Paraguay's 110,000 indigenous people. It is an area which contains high levels of biodiversity including 3400 plant species, 500 birds, 220 reptiles and amphibians and 150 mammals including, as mentioned, the wonderful jaguar.
The Chaco forest is being stripped of trees faster than any other tropical forest. The land is converted to agriculture. The Chaco production is for European retailers. The business consumes the equivalent of 30 football pitches of the forest every day. The site produces 7000 tonnes of charcoal annually and there are plans to expand.
As the packaging does not contain information about the origin of the product, purchasers do not know the source. A distributor (CPL Distribution) raised the issue with Bricapar, who strongly denied the allegation. After initial resistance Wickes have decided to pull the product from their online website and it is being removed from stores as a precaution. They are investigating.
Bricapar say that they comply with all permits and environmental licences issued by the Paraguayan authorities. Yes, the Paraguayan authorities are obviously unconcerned about wild life conservation. Business is more important as usual (or the backhanders). Sam Lawson of Earthsight who exposed the trade said:
"What is happening in Paraguay is the most rapid case of deforestation in human history. It is absolutely outrageous that the major UK retail chain should have a hand in this."
I hope people take note of this information and stop buying these briquettes. I don't think they will. I don't think people actually care enough about the habitat of the jaguar or any other species of animal making their home in the forest. There is no sign of deforestation stopping and remember this is ancient forest. We'll never see it again and one day the only way we will see the jaguar is behind bars, pacing and pacing never to be free again.

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) March 10, 2013
According to a February 5, 2013 CBS News article, studies indicate that an anti-oxidant found in red wine may have anti-aging properties. The natural antioxidant resveratrol is the reason many are now considering how red wine could help slow the body's visible signs of the aging process. (Go to goo.gl/uM8FH)
"As the founder of my own Signature Series skin care line, I'm always interested in the latest developments such as resveratrol," says Dr. Simon Ourian, Medical Director of Epione Beverly Hills. "As a physician and a scientist I have to until the scientific evidence is conclusive before I consider adding it to any of our products."
Also found in cocoa, resveratrol has earned a solid reputation among cosmetics and beauty industry companies as an agent for lessening wrinkles and smoothing age lines. Much of the recent research has indicated that resveratrol is not readily absorbed as an oral supplement, but is most effective when applied directly to the skin.
Resveratrol can also serve to supplement health. It has been found to help diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol and reduce the likelihood of blood clotting. When it gets into the blood stream, resveratrol tends to help blood platelets move though the veins, keeping blood vessels dilated, and raising the level of nitric oxide among users.
According to the article, a 2012 study conducted at the University of Pittsburgh found that older mice were able to walk across a high beam without falling down when administered high doses of resveratrol for four weeks. However, the study also concluded that humans would need to drink equivalent of 700 bottles of red wine each day to achieve the same anti-aging effect on their motor skills. Work is underway to develop methods that can deliver the chemical in more concentrated forms.
Still other findings have generated optimism for resveratrol's anti-aging properties. Also noted in the CBS News article, a study published in October 2012 indicates that people who took resveratrol by mouth for more than 60 days showed improvements in the elasticity and moistness of their skin. Some researchers quickly point to the fact that this study was performed for a sustained period of time as a reason for its effectiveness. It worked because the study did not merely engage the short-term effect of drinking a glass of wine.
"The research done to date is exciting," concludes Dr. Ourian. "I hope that it's only a matter of time before a system is developed to effectively deliver resveratrol's properties to the skin and body."
Dr. Ourian has been a pioneer in laser technology and non-invasive aesthetic procedures including Restylane, Juvéderm, Radiesse and Sculptra. These treatments are used for the correction or reversal of a variety of conditions such as acne, acne scars, skin discoloration, wrinkles, stretch marks, varicose veins, cellulite, and others. More information about resveratrol can be found on Epione's website.
