Acne Treatments

Babies, teenagers, and adults can be all affected with acne. Following a simple acne regimen every day can be a simple solution for clear complexion. Explore some of our best FSA eligible acne products.

As bothersome as acne might be, a regular acne regimen can improve the condition significantly. Wash your face or other acne prone areas daily with an oil-free acne wash with salicylic acid or redness-soothing acne wash. You can also try using acne body washes and scrubs, oil-free cleansing wipes, cleansing pads, blackhead preventing face scrubs, sulfur acne masks, or paper masks as other great options for acne treatment at home. Following up with healing skin therapy lotions — formulated to heal extremely dry, rough and problematic skin — is also a smart way to help heal acne scars. Protecting your skin from the sun can be tough with sensitive skin. Mineral sunscreens are a great option for people who are prone to acne, they're lightweight and don't clog pores.

Hormones are oftentimes the culprit when it comes to acne. Maternal hormones, puberty, your menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and menopause are all natural causes of hormonal acne. Even though hormones may be to blame, you can still improve your complexion. Besides a daily acne regimen, topical retinoids are an effective hormonal acne treatment. Retinoids are recommended for mild, moderate, and even severe acne, like acne vulgaris or cystic acne. La Roche-Posay gel is a prescription-strength retinoid acne treatment that contains adapalene gel, a dermatologist recommended retinol to help clear skin and prevent blackheads, whiteheads, clogged pores, and acne blemishes.

If you still occasionally spot a blemish, consider acne spot treatment or gel. Acne spot treatments work fast to reduce the visible signs of acne. To cover the blemish up during the day, use an acne patch, its tapered edges and matte finish make it virtually undetectable.

Arm yourself with FSA eligible acne products for an improvement with your acne and complexion.

gland(redirected from Bowman's g)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Encyclopedia.
The endocrine glands, or ductless glands, discharge their secretions (hormones) directly into the blood; they include the adrenal, pituitary, thyroid, and parathyroid glands, the islands of Langerhans in the pancreas, the gonads, the thymus, and the pineal body. The exocrine glands discharge through ducts opening on an external or internal surface of the body; they include the salivary, sebaceous, and sweat glands, the liver, the gastric glands, the pancreas, the intestinal, mammary, and lacrimal glands, and the prostate. The lymph nodes are sometimes called lymph glands but are not glands in the usual sense.

adrenal gland
Each adrenal gland is a two-part organ composed of an outer cortex and an inner medulla. The cortex arises in the embryo from a region of the mesoderm that also gives rise to the gonads. The medulla arises from ectoderm, which also gives rise to the sympathetic nervous system.
The entire gland is enclosed in a tough connective tissue capsule from which trabeculae extend into the cortex. The cortex consists of cells arranged into three zones: the outer zona glomerulosa, the middle zona fasciculata, and the inner zona reticularis. The cells are arranged in cords. The medulla consists of chromaffin cells arranged in groups or in anastomosing cords. The two adrenal glands are retroperitoneal, each embedded in perirenal fat above its respective kidney. In an adult, the average weight of an adrenal gland is 5 g (range: 4 to 14 g).
The adrenal medulla synthesizes and stores three catecholamines: dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. The chief effects of dopamine are the dilation of systemic arteries, increased cardiac output, and increased flow of blood to the kidneys. The primary action of norepinephrine is constriction of the arterioles and venules, resulting in increased resistance to blood flow, elevated blood pressure, and slowing of the heart. Epinephrine constricts vessels in the skin and viscera, dilates vessels in skeletal muscle, increases heart rate, dilates the bronchi by relaxing bronchial smooth muscle, increases the conversion of glycogen to glucose in the liver to increase the blood glucose level, and diminishes activity of the gastrointestinal system. The three catecholamines are also produced in other parts of the body.
The adrenal medulla is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system and functions in conjunction with it. It is intimately related to adjustments of the body in response to stress and emotional changes. Anticipatory states tend to bring about the release of norepinephrine. More intense emotional reactions, esp. those in response to extreme stress, tend to increase the secretion of both norepinephrine and epinephrine; epinephrine is important in mobilizing the physiological changes that occur in the "fight or flight" response to emergency situations.
The cortex synthesizes three groups of steroid hormones from cholesterol. These are 1) glucocorticoids (cortisol, corticosterone), which regulate the metabolism of organic nutrients and have an anti-inflammatory effect; 2) mineralocorticoids (aldosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone), which affect metabolism of the electrolytes sodium and potassium; and 3) androgens and estrogens (estradiol), which contribute to body changes at puberty. See: aldosterone; cortisol; steroid
Hypersecretion of adrenal cortical hormones results in Cushing syndrome. Hypersecretion of aldosterone results in a surgically correctable form of hypertension (aldosteronism). Adrenocortical insufficiency may be acute or chronic; acute insufficiency of adrenal hormones produces circulatory shock, while chronic insufficiency results in Addison disease.

endocrine gland
The hormones produced by endocrine cells regulate the body's salt, water, mineral, and glucose levels; they adjust the body's metabolic balances, growth rates, and reproductive cycles; and they maintain the body's stress responses. Like exocrine and paracrine cells, endocrine cells are stimulated and inhibited by autonomic axons; the activities of endocrine cells are also modulated by circulating hormones, especially pituitary hormones. Both the neural and the hormonal signals to the endocrine system are ultimately regulated by the hypothalamus of the brain, which is the integration center for the body's visceral homeostasis. See: hormone
Endocrine health disorders usually result from the production of either too much or too little of a hormone.

parathyroid gland
An excess of parathormone results in hyperparathyroidism; a deficiency, in hypoparathyroidism, with neuromuscular hyperexcitability manifested by carpopedal spasm, wheezing, muscle cramps, urinary frequency, mood changes, and lassitude. Blood calcium falls and blood phosphorus rises. Other symptoms include blurring of vision caused by cataracts, poorly formed teeth if onset was in childhood, maldevelopment of hair and nails, and dry and scaly skin. Hyperparathyroidism or hypersecretion results in a rise in blood calcium and fall in blood phosphorus. Calcium is removed from bones, resulting in increased fragility. Muscular weakness, reduced muscular tone, and general neuromuscular hypoexcitability occur. Osteitis fibrosa cystica is associated with hyperplasia and resulting hypersecretion of the parathyroids.

pituitary gland
The pituitary is an endocrine gland secreting a number of hormones that regulate many bodily processes including growth, reproduction, and other metabolic activities. It is often referred to as the "master gland of the body."
Hormones are secreted in the following lobes: Intermediate lobe: In cold-blooded animals, intermedin is secreted, influencing the activity of pigment cells (chromatophores) of fishes, amphibians, and reptiles. In warm-blooded animals, no effects are known.
Anterior lobe: Secretions here are the somatotropic, or growth hormone (STH or GH), which regulates cell division and protein synthesis for growth; adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which regulates functional activity of the adrenal cortex; thyrotropic hormone (TTH or TSH), which regulates functional activity of the thyroid gland; and prolactin, also called lactogenic hormone, which induces secretion of milk in the adult female. The gonadotropic hormones are as follows: in women, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) stimulates development of ovarian follicles and their secretion of estrogen; in men, it stimulates spermatogenesis in the testes. In women, luteinizing hormone (LH) stimulates ovulation and formation of the corpus luteum and its secretion of estrogen and progesterone. In men, LH also called interstitial cell-stimulation hormone (ICSH), stimulates testosterone secretion.
Posterior lobe: Hormones are secreted by the neurosecretory cells of the hypothalamus and pass through fibers of the supraopticohypophyseal tracts in the infundibular stalk to the neurohypophysis, where they are stored. Secretions here are oxytocin, which acts specifically on smooth muscle of the uterus, increasing tone and contractility, and antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which increases reabsorption of water by the kidney tubules. In large amounts, ADH also causes vasoconstriction, and is also called vasopressin.
Hypersecretion of anterior lobe causes gigantism, acromegaly, and pituitary basophilism (Cushing disease). Hyposecretion of anterior lobe causes dwarfism, pituitary cachexia (Simmonds disease), Sheehan syndrome, acromicria, eunuchoidism, or hypogonadism. Posterior lobe deficiency or hypothalamic lesion causes diabetes insipidus. Anterior and posterior lobe deficiency and hypothalamic lesion cause Fröhlich syndrome (adiposogenital dystrophy) and pituitary obesity.

Rivinus glandSee: Rivinus, August Quirinus
salivary gland
Salivary secretion is under nervous control, reflexly initiated by mechanical, chemical, or radiant stimuli acting on taste buds in the mouth, olfactory receptors, or the eyes. Secretion may also be due to conditioned reflexes as when one thinks about food or hears a dinner bell. The nerve supply of the salivary glands is from the facial and glossopharyngeal nerves, which increase secretion, and from the sympathetic nerves, which decrease secretion. The blood supply is from branches of the external carotid artery.

glands of Zeis
glandA cell or organized collection of cells capable of abstracting substances from the blood, synthesizing new substances, and secreting or excreting them into the blood (endocrine glands), into other bodily structures or on to surfaces, including the skin (exocrine glands). The simplest glands are single mucus-secreting goblet cells. Glands also produce digestive enzymes, hormones, tears, sweat, milk and sebum. LYMPH NODES are often miscalled 'glands'.
glandan organ producing substances which are then secreted to the outside of the gland, sometimes by means of a duct, as in the exocrine glands, for example, the salivary mammary, lachrymal glands, but also in the case of ENDOCRINE GLANDS directly into the blood or lymphatic systems. Occasionally individual cells act as glands, for example, gland cells of Hydra producing digestive enzymes.
accessory lacrimal gland's They are the glands of Krause and Wolfring. These glands are histologically identical to the main lacrimal gland, but are located within the eyelids. These glands are responsible for basal (not reflex) tear secretion and appear to be under sympathetic neural control.
gland's of Ciaccio See glands of Wolfring.
ciliary sebaceous gland's See glands of Zeis.
ciliary sweat gland's See glands of Moll.
conjunctival gland Any gland that secretes a substance into the conjunctiva, such as the lacrimal, meibomian, Krause and Wolfring glands or a goblet cell.
gland's of Henle These are not really glands. They are folds in the mucous membrane of the palpebral conjunctiva, situated between the tarsal plates and the fornices, in which there are goblet cells (Fig. G2). Syn. crypts of Henle (strictly speaking this term refers only to the pit-like depressions).
gland's of Krause Accessory lacrimal glands of the conjunctiva having the same structure as the main lacrimal gland. They are located in the subconjunctival connective tissue of the fornix, especially the superior fornix (Fig. G2).
lacrimal gland A compound gland situated above and to the outer side of the globe of the eye. It consists of two portions: (1) a large orbital or superior portion; and (2) a small palpebral or inferior portion. It secretes the middle aqueous layer of the tears through about a dozen fine ducts into the conjunctival sac at the upper fornix although one or two may also open into the outer part of the lower fornix (Fig. G2). See dacryoadenitis; dacryops; fossa for the lacrimal gland; zygomatic nerve; tear duct.
gland's of Manz Tiny glands located near the limbus. They secrete mucin. The existence of these glands in man is not established.
meibomian gland's Sebaceous glands located in the tarsal plates of the eyelids whose ducts empty into the eyelid margin. They are arranged parallel with each other, perpendicular to the lid margin, about 25 for the upper lid and 20 for the lower. They secrete sebum. This sebaceous material provides the outermost oily (or lipid) layer of the precorneal tear film. It prevents the lacrimal fluid from overflowing onto the outer surface of the eyelid. It also makes for an airtight closure of the lids and prevents the tears from macerating the skin.

Patient discussion about gland
Q. Anyone know if there is a connection between Fibromyalgia and your Thyroid gland? I have Fibromyalgia and I read that if your diagnosed with this you can have Thyroid problems also. If anyone knows out there please inform me. Many thanks.
Q. my friend ate a bar of chocolate and now her left neck gland is swollen any ideas why? no other symptoms
if it is an infection, you can usually find such other infection symptoms like : fever, pain in that swollen area, increased white blood cells (in blood work test), etc.
if it is an allergy, usually it will fade away itself in couple of days, or you can just try to consume anti-allergic drugs, such as : loratadine and maybe combined with dexamethasone.
Good luck, and stay healthy always..

LONDON — Vitamin D supplements don't help prevent chronic diseases unrelated to the bones, according to a review of published research that challenges the prevailing wisdom held by proponents.
While scientific evidence supports the importance of vitamin D for bone health, its benefits in reducing the risk of diseases ranging from cancer to heart disease as shown in 290 observational studies were largely unconfirmed in 172 randomized controlled trials, experiments considered the gold standard for establishing causal links, according to the review published Friday in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology medical journal.
The discrepancy in findings between the two types of studies suggests that low levels of vitamin D aren't a cause but a consequence of ill health, particularly inflammation linked to many diseases, according to the review's lead author, Philippe Autier, a professor at the International Prevention Research Institute in Lyon, France. The research has implications for almost half of all U.S. adults, who are paying $600 million a year for vitamin D pills.
"Associations between vitamin D and health disorders reported by investigators of observational studies are not causal," Autier said in the published paper. "Low vitamin D could be the result of inflammatory processes involved in the occurrence and progression of disease."
In randomized controlled trials, scientists assign a treatment or placebo to study participants who don't know which one they're getting to tease out whether the treatment is causing the outcome. In observational studies, there are no such comparison groups.
The randomized trials on vitamin D showed little to no effect in lowering risk for heart disease, diabetes, infectious diseases and mood disorders, among other conditions. In contrast, the observational studies generally reported moderate to strong effects on these disorders.
In cancer, observational studies showed the supplements had a protective effect on colorectal cancer, an outcome that wasn't confirmed in two large randomized trials.
While randomized trials did show the supplement's benefit in reducing risk of death from any cause, those studies were mostly limited to elderly women living in nursing homes with low appetite and little exposure to sunlight, Autier said. It's unknown whether the same outcome would be observed in younger people, he said.
"These findings shouldn't be misinterpreted, that vitamin D has no value," Duffy MacKay, vice president of scientific and regulatory affairs at the Council for Responsible Nutrition, the U.S. supplement industry's Washington-based trade group, said in a telephone interview. "This doesn't change the fact that we have recommended intake levels backed by the science around bone health, which is rock solid."
The U.S. National Institutes of Health recommends 15 micrograms of daily vitamin D intake from ages 1 through 70. People older than 70 should consume 20 micrograms.
Aside from supplements, sources of vitamin D include fatty fish such as salmon, mackerel and tuna; fish liver oils; fortified milk and orange juice; and sun exposure.
"This paper is a valuable contribution in the field of nutrition, but it has little to contribute to our problem in the U.K., where low levels of vitamin D result in hypocalcemic seizures in infants and bone disorders such as rickets," said Colin Michie, chairman of the Nutrition Committee at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health in London.
"It has been known for almost a century that vitamin D supplements given to those with deficient vitamin D levels results in improved bone health," Michie said.
The review does have some limitations, such as the variable quality of the randomized trials, which weren't assessed by the authors.
Currently, there are five randomized controlled trials testing whether vitamin D supplements can reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, infections, declining brain functions, and fractures. Each study has at least 2,000 participants age 50 and older.
"The first results are not expected before 2017, but these studies have the potential to test our hypothesis," Autier said in the published paper.

Last season, Anderson Varejao played a key role as the Cleveland Cavaliers won the Eastern Conference title -- he was arguably the Cavs' best young player behind LeBron James.
This season, Varejao is playing in a gym more than a thousand miles from Cleveland in Vitoria, Brazil, while the Cavs struggle to replace Varejao's defensive intensity in the middle.
What's he doing? Working on his jump hook. Trying to stay in shape. And most importantly, waiting.
He's waiting for the lucrative contract he thought he'd sign this offseason.
And waiting for Cleveland general manager Danny Ferry to "show me that he values my contribution to the team," Varejao told ESPN.com by phone in a rare interview.
"I just want to be treated fairly and I don't think Danny's done that."
Varejao expected to be helping the Cavs defend their East crown by now.
"I wanted to come back," he said. "I love the fans and I really love my teammates. But there are others there that have made it very difficult. It's gotten to the point that I don't want to play there anymore. I'm just hoping for a sign-and-trade at this point."
Ferry isn't ready to give up on bring Varejao back.
"We fully understand that negotiations can be emotional," Ferry told ESPN.com. "As for Anderson's potential to remain a Cavalier and put this behind us, we value his presence in this organization, on and off the court, and that has not changed."
Varejao, who turned 25 in September, was a vital part of the Cavs' run to the NBA Finals. As the Cavs' sixth man, his basic stats were modest: 6.8 points and 6.7 rebounds in 23 minutes per game. But he led the league in drawing charges, and his energy and interior defense were invaluable to the team. His adjusted plus-minus numbers last season said he was the 22nd-best player in the league.
The question for the Cavs is, how much do you pay for those less tangible contributions?
That question has been at the heart of one of the most unusual free-agent contract squabbles in NBA history.
(One of the handful of similar cases happened when Ferry himself refused to sign with the team that drafted him, the
Los Angeles Clippers, decided instead to play in Europe and eventually forced the Clippers to trade him to, yes, Cleveland.)
As of now, Varejao has been unable to get another team to sign him to an offer sheet. Because Varejao is a restricted free agent, the Cavs can match any offer he gets, and Ferry has threatened to do just that.
This summer that scared off at least one team reluctant to tie its own hands by making an offer that would ultimately result in Varejao merely returning to Cleveland.
The Memphis Grizzlies flirted with making Varejao a big offer in July, but when the Cavs threatened to match and leave Memphis empty-handed, the Grizzlies went after unrestricted free agent
Darko Milicic instead.
Several other teams told ESPN.com they would have offered Varejao their full midlevel exception (starting at $5.356 million per season), but Varejao has not been willing to sign for that amount because he believes (a) the Cavs would match, and (b) he's worth more.
The Cavs' popular forward wants considerably more than the team is offering. He turned down the Cavs' one-year, $1.2 million tender offer. (To retain a restricted free agent, a team must make a tender offer.) He also refused Cleveland's opening offer of five years, $20 million, and then its latest offer of five years, $32 million, with a starting salary slightly below the midlevel exception.
But Varejao said media reports that he's asking for a contract averaging $10-11 million a season "just aren't true. There are a lot of things being written that are wrong. I know they aren't talking to me or my agent."
He said he and his agent, Dan Fegan, have been more than willing to work out a fair deal with the Cavs. Varejao said he offered to sign a one-year deal at a discount, or to sign a longer-term deal.
Varejao further said he would be willing to take the dispute to an arbitrator, for a resolution similar to those found in Major League Baseball. That would minimize the role of Fegan, who is known as a very tough bargainer.
"Much has been made about the negotiators in this process, but for the record I have been prepared since training camp to submit our differences to a third-party mediator so that both parties can be assured of more objectivity," Fegan says.
The Cavs have rejected all of those counterproposals.
Ferry says the Cavs' offer is fair.
"We believe the Cavs' offers are very much in line with what is widely perceived throughout the industry as fair market value. We have also included bonuses that would serve as upside protection for Anderson," Ferry said.
"We are working to make decisions that are best for short- and long-term interests of the organization, yet clearly stepping up and offering him long-term security at a very fair market value."
Varejao said that if the two sides can't agree on a long-term deal, they should agree on a one-year deal that allows both sides to explore their options next year.
From the Cavs' point of view, a one-year deal is counterproductive because it would make Varejao an unrestricted free agent next year, and the team's right to match any offer would disappear. In that case, Varejao could just walk away.
But Fegan says that if Cleveland is willing to pay Varejao "fair market value," the Cavs would then be in the best position to sign him next year.
"It defies logic for the Cavs to accuse Anderson of demanding too much money on a long-term deal while at the same time refusing to allow Anderson to sign a one-year deal for less money, especially when they retain his Bird rights next year." Fegan said. "It begs the question: If their offer is truly fair, what are they afraid of?"
The result has been a standoff that shows no sign of ending.
On each side, the frustration level has been rising the past few weeks, as Varejao is left in limbo in Brazil, and as the Cavs have struggled coming out of the gate in training camp and the regular season.
In October, Ferry made a surprise visit to see Varejao at his parents' home in Brazil in an attempt to convince him to sign.
The move backfired.
Ferry showed up without telling Fegan, and working around an agent is a no-no in the NBA. While GMs are allowed to talk with players without an agent present, it is customary that all contract talk goes through an agent.
"I was shocked," Varejao said. "He showed up and wanted me to sign a contract. I told him he's got to talk to my agent. He didn't even up his offer. I guess he thought if he just showed up, I would just sign whatever he gave me."
Ferry walked away with no deal and with an angry free agent on his hands.
He defends his decision to appeal directly to Varejao.
"From the start of free agency, we told Anderson and his agent that the ability to communicate with him directly was going to be very important to the process," Ferry said. "The trip was done because our communication with Anderson was no longer available to us."
Since that incident, there hasn't been much trust or movement on either side.
While many around the NBA believe that Fegan is driving negotiations, Varejao says he is responsible for his own bargaining position.
"This is me, nobody else," Varejao said. "He takes the offers to me and I decide. He's told me he'll get a deal done for less. I've told him no. It's me. [The Cavs] told me how important I was to the team. I just want to be treated fairly."
Other GMs in the league, while acknowledging that Fegan is a tough negotiator, said that Ferry is equally tenacious.
One serious risk, on Ferry's side, is that the team's most important player, James, might see this impasse as another sign of the Cavs' inability to improve the team.
Varejao says that the Cavs' players support him, and that his conversations with James have been positive.
"He just says, 'We love you and we're waiting,'" Varejao said. "He keeps telling me he wants me back but to get the best deal I can and to take care of my family. He's a great teammate. He always supports us on and off the court."
That sentiment was confirmed by a source close to James, who said, "LeBron wants Andy back. He wants him to get a fair deal. I think his frustration isn't with Andy, it's with the fact that for the past two years, he's been waiting for more help and he hasn't gotten it. This is just a step in the wrong direction."
Over the past few weeks, several NBA general managers have told ESPN.com that Fegan has been searching out potential sign-and-trade deals, in which Varejao would agree to terms with another team and then be traded to that team. In recent days, there have been indications that the Cavs are open to the possibility of a sign-and-trade.
Two GMs told ESPN.com they believe Varejao would agree to a five-year, $45-million deal in a sign-and-trade, if such an offer were made.
"If that's the price, or close to it, I think Danny [Ferry] will get some offers that make sense for the Cavs," one GM said. "I'm not sure he'll get equal value, but right now he has nothing and I don't see it changing."
If Varejao leaves, it will be a bitter ending for both parties.
But at this point, that might be the most workable option.
"I'm willing to go and play in Europe if that's what it takes," Varejao said. "I know it's a risk and I'll be a restricted free agent next year, but at least I'd be happy. I don't think I'll be happy in Cleveland knowing that I was [almost] the lowest-paid player there for three years and am still paid much less than players on the team that I outperform. Life's too short to be unhappy."

But I can't, because I'm only in town for two days, and I'll be busy the whole time making a video for my new book.
However, I can invite you to be an extra in this video. Yes, if you've ever dreamed of being on YouTube to help some schmuck sell something, you can report to the following places at the following times:
The video is being made by Plus M Productions, who made my last video. If you're not familiar with Plus M Productions, one of the two principals is this guy:
Or, if you prefer, this guy:
So obviously it's worth showing up just to get his autograph.
In the meantime, impending travel is usually my cue to tie up unfinished business at home, though when you're a bike blogger-cum-book author the truth is you don't really have much business. Really, this scene from a cinema classic speaks most accurately to the condition of being a blogger:
Nevertheless, even I have things to do occasionally. Specifically, awhile back a gun enthusiast was auctioning a copy of "Bike Snob" on eBay because he hates me now, and I promised that I'd write a poem and draw a picture in it for the winner. Well, I've been a little late in actually doing that, but I'm pleased to report that the muse sat on my face yesterday evening and furnished me with the necessary inspiration:
In the meantime, I'm making life count by reading Twitter, and this Tweet amused me:
I'd like to see a blog off between @bikesnobnyc & @fatcyclist...lthe challenge? bit.ly/VzLMkV Mock. Parody. Emulate. So many choices
— Bill Hart-Davidson (@billhd) February 4, 2013
While I certainly have no intention of engaging in a "blog off" with Fat Cyclist (he'd win, he's very competitive), I am always enthralled by scientific lube studies:
Jean-Paul Sartre famously wrote "Hell is other people," but if you ask me Hell is spending all your time alone in a lab testing lubes:
Smith's process for testing the lubes is time-consuming, involving a multi-stage stripping and lubing procedure before each chain ever hits a piece of test equipment. He is meticulous; each lube is tested on three different chains under exactly the same load, always in the same direction, and every chain is identically impregnated with each lube thanks to the use of an ultrasonic machine.
Though if you edit that down it does sound a lot like "foffing off" and impregnating someone from across the room:
Basically, it's all a bunch of "tooting your own horn"--which, it turns out, is exactly what Velo(news) is doing:
Now allow us to toot our own horn, at least a bit. At Velo, we take our testing seriously. No "laterally stiff and vertically compliant" nonsense here — unless something actually is.
Yes, I agree that using the phrase "laterally stiff and vertically compliant" is far more ridiculous than spending $50,000 on a bunch of equipment to test lube.
And in conclusion:
After exploring Smith's lab, it is clear that this lube test is only the start. Smith is measuring, or will be soon, the efficiency of various pedals, chainrings, chainlines, hubs, bottom brackets and more. It's a goldmine of incredible data, and it's a safe bet that you'll find more of it in the pages of Velo going forward.
To which I would append the following:
Once you've reached the point where you consider lube test results "incredible data" it's already too late, so if you're even remotely intrigued now do yourself a favor and get rid of your crabon bike immediately. Buy a Rivendell, take up golfing, break both your legs, whatever it takes. Believe me, you do not want to disappear down the Fredhole of friction and wattage--because while you might save 2.5 seconds in the local race you'll never win anyway, there's no recouping the loss in time, money, and human relationships. One day you're perusing incredible chain lube data in the pages of Velo, and the next you're getting busted for doping in a Gran Fondo and your coach at CTS isn't returning your calls.
It's just not worth it.
With that, I will take my leave and fortify myself for the smuggery of San Francisco. I hope to see one or two of you out there and either way I look forward to returning to all three of you on Monday.

The secret of building families to last is found in Kari's emphasis on parents modelling the Christian life before their children. If the mother and father—who are responsible before God for what happens in the home—are not walking with God, and not walking in harmony with each other before God, how can they become models to their children?KEEP READING

President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, will make their first joint appearance on the daytime show "The View" next week.
The show says the Democratic president and first lady will tape an episode Monday to air Tuesday. Obama's appearance in July 2010 was the show's most-watched episode ever.
GOP challenger Mitt Romney might not be far behind. Romney said in private remarks to donors made public this week that going on "The View" is high risk because of the sharp-tongued female hosts, only one of whom is a conservative.
That conservative, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, said Wednesday that she had reached out to Romney, and the campaign said he'd love to come on the show in October.
CBS' "60 Minutes" also announced both candidates will appear Sunday in separate interviews.

Christmas masterpieces come alive
When Christmas greeting cards begin to arrive in the mail, I read each one with pleasure. Part of the joy comes from knowing that the sender is thinking of us.
Also, the cards themselves prompt memories of times past.
Some have old-fashioned scenes that remind me of Christmases in my childhood: Decorating the cedar tree from the pasture, helping our mother select certain kinds of Christmas cards for people on our list, making snowmen, watching my mom make her annual batch of pecan balls and her fabulous cranberry salad, and shopping for dime store gifts.
The Christmas programs at church remain vivid too.
We practiced our parts for weeks. Besides the plays, songs and acoustics, each of the little kids had a piece to say. Even in my adult years I ended up with parts in the programs, once knocking over a lamp prop and laughing hysterically.
Most years, the program went off without a hitch, thanks to the many who pitched in to pull it all together. We often joked about being "technical difficulties" for our director, but when it came down to the wire, we learned our lines and sang our songs.
It must be easier for youngsters to memorize lines because the kids always make it look easy. Though, it was evident that a lot of hours of practice went into the final production.
It's also enjoyable to attend Christmas programs at other area churches. Sunday afternoon was a Christmas spectacular with Hillsdale Arts Chorale members performing a magnificent "Magnificat," featuring approximately 12 movements.
Chorale members had practiced their parts to perfection, with numerous solos beautifully presented. It is truly a tribute to the talent in our community - that we have such a spectacular group to enjoy is notable for the size of our area.
School Christmas programs are rounding out this week, before school kids all get off for Christmas break. When our kids were in elementary school, I was always glad to see religious skits as well as the secular holiday ones. It's great when all kids can participate in religious drama, because in some cases it's the only chance they will have to do so.
Band and orchestra productions also bring in the sounds of the season and with each concert, memories are made. The Collage concert held Dec. 7 provided opportunity for individuals and groups to shine on stage for another impressive program. This year's was the tenth one Hillsdale High School has done and every year they do a fabulous job.
Whenever there's a Christmas special on television, you can bet I'll tune in if possible. I like to watch the lighting of the tree at Rockefeller Center each year and the smattering of stars who sing carols on some of their own specials. They vary from Great Performances "Rod Stewart: Merry Christmas, Baby" to Nature "Christmas in Yellowstone."
Seeing "The Nutcracker" on PBS is always a treat. I'm sure it's even more spectacular live.
I've been told it features New York City Ballet's roster of more than 150 dancers and musicians, as well as two alternating casts of 50 children from the School of American Ballet, the New York City Ballet's official school. I'm convinced the experience would be spell-binding!
So as each Christmas card is received this season, take time to reflect and rejoice by enjoying the past and present. The season is full of masterpieces.

May 6, 2013
From left are Nolan Catholic High School Principal Cathy Buckingham, Meghan McCoy, and Kai Nemeth, creator and organizer of Mary, Mother of All Nations. A 2004 graduate of Nolan Catholic High School, McCoy was the honored alumna called on to serve as the Blessed Mother at the Mary, Mother of All Nations program.
When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home.
— John 19:26-27
These words, spoken by Jesus from the cross, speak directly to each of us inviting our acceptance of Mary as our Blessed Mother. Around the world, Christians have taken Jesus' words to heart as they express their own spiritual love and devotion to Mary.
Every year, freshmen at Nolan Catholic High School in Fort Worth share their own global experiences representing the diversity of their heritages with a powerful prayer service honoring the Blessed Virgin as "Mary, Mother of All Nations."
The annual program has become a special highlight activity of the freshman class for more than 10 years. It showcases students' love for Mary through their God-given talents of song, dance, poetry, public speaking, and knowledge of world geography and history.
This year's event involved the Hail Mary recited by one student in his native Nigerian language, a Japanese folksong, a student of Cherokee heritage reading a Native American prayer, a sacred Hawaiian hula dedicated to Mary, psalm recitations in Tagalog-Filipino, an elaborate Asian dance, ballet, an ancient Gaelic prayer, and a Polish hymn. Attended by nearly 250 freshmen, the March 21 event also drew about 100 other students, parents, administrators, faculty, and special guests.
A meaningful entrance procession is central to the Mary, Mother of All Nations program each year. Students process into Nolan's arena representing the populated continents of the world. They carry symbols from these regions, ranging from eagle feathers and cowboy hats for North America to a colorful dragon representing power and blessings from Asia.
And no Mary, Mother of All Nations event at Nolan would be complete without someone portraying the Blessed Mother herself. Each year, a Nolan alumna is honored with this role. This year, that honor went to Meghan McCoy, a 2004 graduate of Nolan who currently teaches at St. Andrew Catholic School in Fort Worth.
She was escorted to a stage in the arena as festivities and tributes centered on her presence and representation of Mary.
McCoy, in fact, was among some the first freshmen to participate in the original celebration of Mary, Mother of All Nations 13 years ago. While the event was a memorable one for her as a student at the time, she said she never expected to return to play the role of Mary.
"It was such an honor to be chosen," McCoy said, "especially considering all of the alumnae of Nolan Catholic." When McCoy got the call from her former teacher and event organizer Kai Nemeth, asking her if she would be interested in the role of Mary this year, she accepted. Immediately after the conversation, she turned to prayer.
Talented student performers honor Mary through a colorful Asian fan dance.
"I prayed for guidance, support, and strength, so I would represent Mary the best way that I possibly could," McCoy said.
Asking for God's help as she immersed herself in devotion to Mary is also something she learned from Nemeth, a popular social studies teacher who has taught for 44 years, including 30 years at Nolan.
Mary, Mother of All Nations was a perfect fit for Nolan, said Nemeth, because of the school's strong Marianist roots.
"Our school's charism centers on Mary as the first disciple of Christ," Nemeth explained, adding that a special synergy occurs with freshmen as they honor the Blessed Mother each year. "It's the enthusiasm of the freshmen and the other students, and the appreciation that comes from the entire school community that is so exciting and motivates me do this every year," said Nemeth.
"I personally have great devotion to Our Lady, and this has become a labor of love."
Nemeth said the Mary, Mother of All Nations event has continued to grow in importance over the years not only because of its popularity with students, but because of the support of administrators as well. One of those, he said, is Nolan's president, Father Richard Villa, SM.
"I am absolutely mesmerized each time I attend Mary, Mother of All Nations," said Fr. Villa, a Society of Mary priest. "It certainly reflects the diversity of our student body, the expansion of our Church throughout the world, and the convergence of cultures that Mary brings.
"It helps students understand the role of Mary in the world as a disciple of Christ and a person who listened to the word of God in her life. It gives students a firsthand knowledge of how diverse our Church is," Fr. Villa said.
Nolan Principal Cathy Buckingham sees it the same way.
In her address to students, Buckingham said, "Being a Marianist school, as you know, we look to Mary as our model in everything that we do. She's a perfect example of patience and goodness. And it is in this celebration that we recognize her as the mother of all the nations of our world.
"We the people of earth are her children," Buckingham continued. "I encourage you to remind yourself that you are a child of Mary and everyone you encounter is as well. This makes each of us a brother and sister in Christ.
"Let us always remember to treat each other in this manner, as brothers and sisters in Christ, and as children of Mary."
Catherine Gorecki is one of the many students at Nolan who will remember how the Mary, Mother of All Nations event strengthened her devotion to Mary. Now a senior, Gorecki has participated in the event throughout her four years at Nolan. Fluent in Polish, with strong family roots to Poland, Gorecki sung "Serdeczna Matko (Beloved Mother)," a popular Polish hymn.
These words, spoken by Jesus from the cross, speak directly to each of us inviting our acceptance of Mary as our Blessed Mother. Around the world, Christians have taken Jesus' words to heart as they express their own spiritual love and devotion to Mary.

|Package Manager
|Tom Tromey
|Part of Emacs
|Since Emacs 24
package.el is the built-in package manager in Emacs 24.
Install package.el on Emacs 23
package.el is bundled with Emacs 24, but it's not bound to Emacs 24. Before it became part of Emacs it was an external package, known as package.el that was tied to repository called ELPA (Emacs Lisp Package Archive). So even if you're an Emacs 23 user you can copy the latest version of package.el from here and enjoy it.
Put the following snippet of code near the beginning of your Emacs config, since you'll definitely want packages installed via package.el to be initalized before you start tweaking them.
(require 'package)
How it works
What package.el basically does is that it connects to a list of package repositories, retrieves the list of the packages there, presents it to you in a interactive fashion and lets you install the packages you like (of course you can also remove the ones you don't like). package.el understands the dependencies between packages and if one package requires others to run they will be installed automatically (which is really neat).
The magic starts with the command M-x package-list-packages. At this point you should see something in the lines of this.
You can navigate the list of packages, mark the ones you want to install with the "i" key or the ones you want removed with the "d" key and when you're done you can press the "x" key to execute the scheduled actions.
Initially package.el didn't provide the option to update a package, but that should be fixed in recent Emacs builds. According to this thread you can even update all of the installed packages by using the "U" key in the packages list view (I guess that a small "u" would update only one package). Unfortunately my build is lacking those capabilities so I cannot comment of their usability.
How to add additional repository
You'd probably notice that your list of available packages is not particularly long. That's because the official Emacs 24 package repository has a strict licensing (and source code) requirements to include a package there. Luckily there are a number of community-maintained package.el repos around with much more relaxed requirements. Probably the most popular of them is Marmalade, created by Nathan Weizenbaum of Sass and Haml fame. You can include it in your package-archives list like this:
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/"))
Marmalade provides a web based UI for package upload and search (both quite buggy unfortunately) and the ability to share the maintenance of a package between several people, who'll be able to upload new version of the package. There's also a Emacs Lisp Marmalade tool, that allows you to submit packages directly from Emacs.
How to use it with a custom build
Using the package.el UI is ok if you're a casual Emacs user, but what if you have a custom Emacs configuration, stored under version control, that you'd like to instantly deploy on any OS/machine (like Emacs Prelude). Here in play comes package.el's programmer interface. In Emacs Prelude I use the following code to install a list of required packages automatically on Emacs startup (if necessary):
;; Comment out if you've already loaded this package...
(require 'cl)
(defvar my-packages
'(ack-and-a-half auctex clojure-mode coffee-mode deft expand-region
gist groovy-mode haml-mode haskell-mode inf-ruby
magit magithub markdown-mode paredit projectile python
sass-mode rainbow-mode scss-mode solarized-theme
volatile-highlights yaml-mode yari zenburn-theme)
"A list of packages to ensure are installed at launch.")
(defun my-packages-installed-p ()
(loop for p in prelude-packages
when (not (package-installed-p p)) do (return nil)
finally (return t)))
(unless (my-packages-installed-p)
;; check for new packages (package versions)
;; install the missing packages
(dolist (p prelude-packages)
(when (not (package-installed-p p))
(package-install p))))
This code check if all of the packages in the list are installed and if any of them are not installed if refreshes the local package database (in the case a required package for recently added to the remote repo) and installs them.
How to publish it to Marmalade
To be able to publish a package to Marmalade (or another repo) it should comform a standardized structure. A single-file package might look like this:
;;; sass-mode.el --- Sass major mode
;; Copyright 2007-2010 Nathan Weizenbaum
;; Author: Nathan Weizenbaum <firstname.lastname@example.com>
;; URL: http://github.com/nex3/sass-mode
;; Version: 3.0.20
;; Package-Requires: ((haml-mode "3.0.20"))
;; Code goes here
;;; sass-mode.el ends here
A multi-file package should have an additional file named `<name>-pkg.el` that should look like this:
(define-package "sass-mode" "3.0.20"
"Sass major mode"
'((haml-mode "3.0.20")))

Days go by lately and they pretty much look the same. Write write write. Camera camera camera. Write write write. It's pretty intense. It's very insane and I would not change it for the world. Writing this book is the toughest thing I have ever done. Finding my authoring voice as well as my "manual-guideline" writing voice, as well as analyzing hundreds of my own pictures to make sure they are the best in the category they will be used for. I wondered the other day is 5pm was a decent time to finally brush my hair...
I am learning tons. About the world of editing and publishing, myself, others. About having someone busting your chop and being always one step ahead. I thought I did not sleep much, I think my editor got me beat. I often wonder if I am slow or it's just the subject matter that makes me slow down and double triple check how I put it down on paper. I have never pondered words and dissected pictures as much as I have been doing the past couple of months. And there is so much still left to do and so little time to do it in.
I do believe I'd feel different if I did not have to work my regular job at the same time. Yep. The bills still have to be paid, regardless of how long my behind is glued to the office chair or my eyes to the computer. This is by far the most challenging thing I have ever done in my career but it's looking to be a dance of two or three of anything at least until July. And for some insane reasons, it's not stressing me out one bit. It's gotta be because I am doing a job that makes me smile every morning I get up.
I equated it to kitchen work the other day to Bill as we were looking over the schedules. Last time I felt such a high and peace of mind all jumbled together was when I was working in a restaurant kitchen.
Talking about restaurant kitchens...I am starting the photography for Virginia Willis's cookbook this weekend and I am looking forward to working with a dedicated crew of women, from cook to food stylist to yours truly behind the camera. We have a packed schedule the coming 3 days so you won't see me pop around here much. Once the shoot is over for the day it's back to writing and editing my own material. Lots of recipes to be covered for her and we have for mission to find the cover! Ah...no pressure!!
I am ready! With the intensity of the last few weeks, it would be easy to forget proper nourishment. Except I am not one to forget to eat. When time is of the essence, soups and salads are my true staples. It's usually the same lentil or split pea soup but since my buddy Chris posted his French Onion Soup, I have been obsessed to make a big batch of it. Paired with my favorite salad of the moment and I am set. Perfect bite of comfort and TLC during quiet and studious days.
I am hoping to get plenty of "behind the scenes" shots for you guys. So stay tuned!
French Onion Soup: Click here for the recipe.
I'd never trust just anyone to make good onion soup like my mother used to make but his...wow! Make the time to put a batch on the stove. You won't regret it. Use gluten free bread and you are good to go!
For the salad, lately it's been rotating around these ingredients:
- greens, granny Smith apples, feta, pomegranate seeds, vinaigrette.
Perfect lunch...
