Curling irons have been around for a long time. We all know how to use them: heat the unit, press the shaft lever to open the iron, wrap hair around the barrel, wait a few seconds, unwind hair, repeat many times, and voilà! Perfect curls! The truth is, perfection will be achieved sometimes and even then it comes with a lot of effort.
Now we have a new entrant into the market – the automatic hair curler. It replaces your traditional curling iron by adding automation into the picture and promises better, easier, and sleeker curls. We love these promises. The biggest hair issue for many women is having hair that cooperates. If a product can help achieve the look we want affordably and in less time than the old way, then we have a winner.
In this review, we have narrowed the field down to three automatic hair curlers we deem worth considering. In this review, we reveal the overall best automatic hair curler, the best automatic hair curler for the money, and the best automatic hair curler on a budget.
This is considered by us the best automatic hair curler on the market!
The Infiniti Pro by Conair Curl Secret Hair Curler is our #1 pick because it really gives hair a salon-finished look. It minimizes frizz, enhances shine and rarely tangles. Plus the Conair brand means you are purchasing a quality product. In fact, it is backed by a limited 5-year warranty so you really can't go wrong. It is available for $80.
We also love that the Infiniti Pro is really giving the hair curler category something we haven't seen before. It feeds your hair into a curl chamber and after a few seconds, the result is a beautiful corkscrew curl. It's a very cool premise – unlike old school curling irons or hot rollers, we feel that this type of curler represents true innovation in the category. And ultimately, it produces fabulous results.
One shortcoming some users may encounter is that hair might tangle but we truly believe this will be minimized by patience as you're learning to use it, and by following the instructions properly.
Overall, it performs similarly to the Infiniti Pro but it isn't backed by the same strong brand name. Further, it doesn't feel quite as robust. We also found it was a little cumbersome to hold but users would get used to this no doubt. That said, it produces very nice curls so we think buyers will be happy with this product as well.
The Instawave Automatic Hair Curler is great for those on a budget and for those less adventurous, perhaps. It is available for $40 and is the most similar to a traditional curling iron of those we review here.
Its differentiating feature is that it feeds hair automatically around the curling iron shaft with the touch of a button. It resembles a traditional curling iron. So think old school curling iron with automation added and suddenly we have a great innovative product. If your preference for an automatic hair curler is for your hair to remain visible the whole while it's curling, then this is likely the right product for you.
The biggest criticisms we have of this product are that, first – it is a little tough to master; and second – there is no easy way to set it down in between curls. We'd really like if it had flat base so it could be placed on a counter.
An automatic hair curler is a great device if you are looking for full-bodied curls in less time than it takes with a traditional curling iron or hot rollers. The idea behind it is that you can produce salon-style curls in the comfort of your home without spending hours doing so.
The key to this is "automation". With the automatic hair curlers reviewed here, there is no twisting your hair around the shaft of a curling iron or twisting your wrist to get that curl effect. Automatic hair curlers do all the twisting of you. In fact, many automatic hair curlers promise a full head of curls in less than 15 minutes.
Some of the newest hair curlers on the market include a curl chamber which automatically pulls your hair inside the mechanism and then releases it to produce a perfect corkscrew-style curl. So if you are interested in trying a new and more efficient way to get curls, an automatic hair curler might be perfect for you.
There aren't yet a plethora of automatic hair curlers on the market yet since the category is still somewhat unknown to many, but regardless we have narrowed the search down for you by reviewing three automatic hair curlers here. The following guide represents a great starting point as you begin to shop for yours.
There are several key things you want to consider when in the market for an Automatic Hair Curler. The following elements will set you off on the right foot.
Consider if you want your hair to be visible during the curl process. Some curlers require that you feed your hair right into a curl chamber while others automatically wrap hair around a visible barrel.
Consider the type of curl you want to have and if the curler provides options for size of curl and temperature settings, the latter of which is important to setting the curl.
Some curlers are more finicky to use than others. Watch videos of the products in action to determine if you can master the process.
Consider the brand of the automatic hair curler. Some brands are known for higher quality products than others. Also factor in whether or not the product is backed by a warranty and whether or not it is made of quality material that will withstand your expected frequency of use.
Ultimately, will the automatic hair curler perform its intended duty in an effective fashion? If it's not an improvement over your usual curling iron or hot curlers, then it's not worth it.
Also a huge pet peeve relating to hair apparatuses is the tangle factor! None are worth it if they are going to tangle your hair.
The selection of products available means you can find one right for your budget.
We consider the Infiniti Pro Curl Secret to be the best overall hair curler. It feels like a salon quality product and includes some very nice features. It is a bit of an investment at the $80 mark but it is worth every penny. Quality will not be an issue with this hair curler.
This curler is very simple to use. At the touch of a button, your hair is drawn into a curl chamber where it seems like magic is performed because straight hair goes in, and perfect, bouncing curls come out. Curling hair has honestly never been simpler.
The Infiniti Pro enables you to choose between loose, medium or tight curls depending on your preference. It's great that it includes options like this because users may want different curls depending on their mood or the occasion.
We particularly love that this brush is equipped with "Tourmaline" ceramic technology that ensures salon-quality curls for your hair and prevents fizziness and flyaways without damaging hair. The handle is ergonomic in design so it's very comfortable to hold. Overall the Infiniti Pro is very smooth to operate which is paramount in a unit like this.
This automatic hair curler heats up very quickly and also comes equipped with two heat settings and three timer settings for maximum versatility. These features are essentially what control the type of curl that is produced. The highest heat setting goes to 400 degrees which is in line with the competition.
It comes equipped with an automatic shut off feature which is great from a safety and energy conservation perspective. Conair also promises a long life motor which we'd expect. Plus it comes equipped with a limited 5-year warranty which is a must-have.
Overall, this curler is really nice to use if you get it right (see weaknesses below). The hair flows through easily and doesn't tangle (most of the time). The design is sleek and smooth and the quality is spot on.
The truth of the matter is that there is a learning curve to using an automatic hair curler like this. It will likely take a few "tries" before you get it right. This means you might encounter tangles to begin with so proceed slowly. We recommend using small sections of hair to achieve the best results.
One major enhancement would be a release button to help deal with tangles. Users who encountered major tangles were stuck struggling to unlock hair from inside the unit. We do worry that users will either LOVE it or HATE it. That said, our research indicates most really do love it.
Gives hair great salon-style finish.
Needs a release button to help with tangles.
We consider the Quimat Hair Curler to be the best automatic hair curler for the money. It does very well on all of the key features. Further, it is very reasonably priced at the $60 mark and is definitely worth the investment. Unlike the Infiniti Pro, it comes equipped with an LCD display, which we really like. It takes the guesswork out of the heat which means you have more control over your curls.
Like the Infiniti Pro, it operates by feeding hair into a curl chamber. This automatic hair curler has many strengths. As mentioned, it is the only one reviewed that has an LCD display. Since heat is the major factor in determining how the curls turn out, having a very precise heat reading is a truly nice perk.
Like the other curlers reviewed, it also has a brushless motor which promises a long life, fast heat up, and tangle free results.
Some users complain that their hair got stuck inside the curling mechanism. Like the Infiniti Pro, this type of hair curler will take a little practice to get the hang of.
While we didn't have any problems with tangles, we did find it awkward to hold. It is more cumbersome than the Infiniti Pro but this is more of a minor criticism than anything else.
We aren't sure about the overall quality of the unit. It doesn't feel as robust as the Infiniti Pro and the brand name isn't one we are familiar with. That said, we didn't encounter any quality issues but we feel more confident in the Infiniti Pro from a "built to last" perspective.
LCD display and curl guidelines.
We consider the Kiss Instawave Automatic Hair Curler to be a great product for those on a budget but it is different than the other products we review here. It is available at the $40 mark and is the closest product to a traditional curling iron with the addition of automation. This isn't necessarily a bad thing but it doesn't promise as much as the other two automatic hair curlers do.
The Instawave does have some nice features. To start, many people appreciate that their hair doesn't disappear into a black box when it is being curled. Your hair is visible the whole time. As mentioned, it is the most similar to a traditional curling iron of the products we review here. The main difference is that the shaft rotates so the Instawave does the work for you. And "yes" it does rotate in both directions so you can create a natural looking set of curls.
It has two heat settings which we appreciate, and also comes equipped with an auto shut-off feature. We also like that it heats up really quickly. Its hottest setting is 420 which we also like because it means your hair is more likely to hold the curl. Like its peers, this curler incorporates ceramic ionic technology which promises to minimize fizziness and damage.
Above and beyond anything else, this product works, works well, and is easy to use. It's definitely a step up from a regular curling iron and makes the job much more efficient!
The Instawave is available in only one barrel size – 1 inch. This means you'll always have the same curl diameter. It would be nice if a larger barrel were available for people with longer hair.
This hair curler is also a little tough to master. Some users never got the hang of it. We suspect a lot of it has to do with hair type and user error. Thickness and texture will play a role here. The reality is that the Instawave likely works better for certain hair types.
It's also a negative that there is no way to set this curler down as you are prepping your next section of hair. Ideally the base should have a flat section so it can easily be rested as you are working through your hair.
Keeps hair tangle-free during styling.
Not as effective on some hair types.
One reality we came across in our research is that many consumers found their hair got tangled in automatic hair curlers in general, especially the ones that work with a curl chamber – a.k.a. the black box of automatic hair curlers. We believe that much of this has to do with user error, hair type, and/or amount of hair fed into the chamber.
We are the first to admit that these curlers have a learning curve and will take a little practice. So start slow, test small sections of hair out, and figure out which settings and features work for you. Do this on a rainy day when you aren't trying to do your hair for a special event or an important work meeting. Patience may be part of the key to finding success with these products.
Having said all of that, people who love them really LOVE them. We do too but we want you to go in with eyes wide open!
Considering that an automatic hair curler is a product that you are purchasing to make your life easier and to enhance your look, it is important to choose one that will fit your needs. After all, once purchased, you'll likely use your automatic hair curler often if you can master it.
The last thing you want is for it not to function the way you'd hoped or for it not to last or for it to tangle your hair. If you can make the investment, go with Infiniti Pro by Conair Curl Secret. It represents the best in innovation and the best in brand name. Its warranty means you can't go wrong and so many users swear by it, we think you will too.

SENATOR JIMMY HIGDON ELECTED AS NEW KENTUCKY SENATE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE
Senate Majority Office
Contact: John Cox
John.Cox@LRC.KY.GOV
FRANKFORT, Ky. (Friday, September 8, 2017) – The Kentucky Senate Majority Caucus announced Friday that Senator Jimmy Higdon (R-Lebanon) has been chosen by his peers to serve as the new President Pro Tempore in the Kentucky Senate. Senator Higdon replaces Senator David Givens (R-Greensburg) who resigned from his seat in Senate leadership in June citing personal reasons.
"I was sad to see Senator Givens step down, but I am honored to serve in this new capacity in Senate leadership, and I appreciate all of my colleagues for granting me this special opportunity," Senator Higdon said Friday. "I certainly have some big shoes to fill, but Senator Givens has been supportive, and I know he will continue to be a great asset to our caucus and a great resource to me moving forward."
Prior to Friday's election, Senator Higdon held the leadership position of Senate Majority Caucus Whip. A special election will be held in the near future to fill the newly vacant leadership post.
"I am happy for my good friend, Senator Jimmy Higdon, and look forward to continuing to serve with him in Senate leadership," Senate President Robert Stivers (R-Manchester) said. "Senator Higdon is experienced, knowledgeable, and possesses the necessary character skills needed to effectively serve as President Pro Tem, and I am confident he will do an exemplary job."
Senator Higdon was elected to the Kentucky Senate in 2009 during a special election after having previously served in the Kentucky House of Representatives since 2003. Senator Higdon was elected Majority Caucus Whip in 2014 and reelected in 2016. He represents the 14th Senate District, which encompasses Casey, Marion, Nelson, and Spencer counties, as well as a portion of Jefferson County.

Q: Converting input of State to the abbreviation I am working on a personal C++ project and one of the features is to save contact information. When it comes to the address I want the state to save in its  abbreviation format.
I am working on a method that will accept a string input of the full name of the state and return a string value of the 2 character state abbreviation. That being said I have been brainstorming with some friends as to the best way to do this. As of right now I have finished the states that begin with 'A'; but before I go through the other 47 states I wanted to broaden my brainstorming by asking this question. If there a "better" or more efficient way to accomplish this? Please look at my function so far.
    std::string Address::formatStateInput(std::string stateInput){
        char firstLetter = toupper(stateInput.at(0)); //makes first character capital for easy checking
        if(firstLetter == 'A'){
        char letterToCheck = toupper(stateInput.at(3)); //makes fourth character capital for easy checking
            //Alabama
            if (letterToCheck == 'B'){
                return "AL";
            }
            //Alaska
            else if (letterToCheck == 'S'){
                return "AK";
            }
            //Arizona
            else if (letterToCheck == 'Z'){
                return "AZ";
            }
            else{
                return "NULL";
            }
        }
        else{return "NULL";}
    }

A: I would use an std::map (or std::unordered_map).
std::map<std::string, std::string> abbrs;

abbrs["Alabama"] = "AL";
abbrs["Alaska"] = "AK";
abbrs["Arizona"] = "AZ";
// ...

Then to look up a state's abbreviation, you'd do something like:
auto pos = abbrs.find(user_input_state_name);
if (pos == abbrs.end())
    error_invalid_state_name(user_input_state_name);
else
    abbreviation = *pos;

Note that in a typical case, you probably don't want to really hard-code all the state names and abbreviations into your source code. You probably want to have the names and abbreviations in an external configuration file.

Who is maria walsh dating consolidating all loans
He loved being in the thick of the war – the tank advance through the Ardennes, the Battle of the Bulge – dodging bullets, watching men being shot to hell all around him.But it's hard to shake off the feeling that what he was doing wasn't bravery, but psychotic self-dramatisation.It took Mary Welsh Hemingway several months to admit that her husband's death was suicide; and it's taken nearly 50 years to piece together the reasons why this giant personality, this rumbustious man of action, this bullfighter, deep-sea fisherman, great white hunter, war hero, gunslinger and four-times-married, all-round tough guy, whom every red-blooded American male hero-worshipped, should do himself in. But eventually it took a psychiatrist from Houston, Texas, to hold up all the evidence to the light and announce his disturbing conclusions.The idealised life of Ernest Hemingway, the one the writer himself wanted the world to buy, was simple: he was the perfect man, the perfect synthesis of brain and brawn.At the liberation of Paris, he was found in a hotel with a small private army.
The story was splashed on the front page of all American newspapers. Successive biographers – AE Hochtner, Carlos Baker, KS Lynn, AJ Monnier, Anthony Burgess – have chewed over the available facts, his restless travelling, his many amours, the peaks and troughs of his writing career.The critic Max Eastman complained that his prose style had become the equivalent of "false hair on the chest".Unable to participate directly in killing bulls, Hemingway decamped to Mombasa where he could legitimately blaze away at lions and kudu.Fifty years ago, in the early hours of Sunday 2 July, 1961, Ernest Hemingway, America's most celebrated writer and a titan of 20th-century letters, awoke in his house in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho, rose from his bed, taking care not to wake his wife Mary, unlocked the door of the storage room where he kept his firearms, and selected a double-barrelled shotgun with which he liked to shoot pigeons.He took it to the front of the house and, in the foyer, put the twin barrels against his forehead, reached down, pushed his thumb against the trigger and blew his brains out. Witnesses who saw the body remarked that he had chosen from his wardrobe a favourite dressing gown that he called his "emperor's robe".

PEGMedia - Short Description
''The Invention of the White Race'' presents a full-scale challenge to ''The Great White Assumption... as natural ... rather than a social construct.''
PEGMedia Full description
The book "The Invention of the White Race" by Theodore W. Allen presents a full-scale challenge to what Allen refers to as "The Great White Assumption" -- "the unquestioning, indeed unthinking acceptance of the 'white' identity of European-Americans of all classes as a natural attribute rather than a social construct." Its thesis on the origin and nature of the "white race" contains the root of a new and radical approach to United States history, one that challenges master narratives taught in the media and in schools, colleges, and universities. With its equalitarian motif and emphasis on class struggle it speaks to people today who strive for change worldwide.
"When the first Africans arrived in Virginia in 1619, there were no 'white' people there; nor, according to the colonial records, would there be for another sixty years." - Theodore W. Allen (Written after searching through 885 county-years of Virginia's colonial records)
Allen's book on racial oppression and social control, is one of the twentieth-century's major contributions to historical understanding. This two-volume classic (Vol. 1: "Racial Oppression and Social Control" and Vol. 2: "The Origin of Racial Oppression in Anglo-America") details how the "white race" was invented as a ruling-class social control formation and a system of racial oppression was imposed in response to labor solidarity in the wake of Bacon's Rebellion (1676-77), how the "white race" was created and maintained through "white race" privileges conferred on laboring class European-Americans relative to African-Americans, how these privileges were not in the interest of African-Americans or laboring class European-Americans, and how the "white race" has been the principal historic guarantor of ruling-class domination in America. ( See a longer more detailed presentation - HERE)
These two talks, by Jeffrey B. Perry, are about Theodore W. Allen and his thoroughly researched book "The Invention of the White Race" (Verso Books) - especially Vol. II: "The Origin of Racial Oppression in Anglo-America."
These talks, presented in two 58 minute shows, are for public access TV stations to broadcast - phone your local public access TV station to request these two shows be broadcast to your local community.
Part 1 and the beginning of Part 2 is Jeffrey B. Perry's slide presentation/talk on "Theodore W. Allen and 'The Invention of the White Race'" by Jeffrey B. Perry was presented on Sat., June 18, 2016, at a "Multiracial Organizing Conference" on "Organizing Poor and Working Class Whites: The Challenge of Building a Multiracial Movement," at the Beloved Community Center, Greensboro, NC.
In the rest of Part 2 Jeffrey B. Perry's elaborates further on Theodore W. Allen and 'The Invention of the White Race' and U.S. Labor History. Excerpts from an interview conducted with Caeser Pink and staff of Arete Living Arts Center (Brooklyn, NY) on Saturday, June 8, 2013, at the Labor and Working Class History Association (LAWCHA) National Conference, at Brooklyn - CUNY Center for Worker Education, 25 Broadway, 7th floor, New York, NY, 10004.

If you're curating a Winter wardrobe, it's got to include a great pair of tights. They're game changers when it comes to warming you up, and they allow you to wear Winter outfits you might not have considered otherwise, like a pretty dress or skirt.

Shorts, skirts, and dresses are all now viable Winter options, and that's something to celebrate. Whether you prefer a more sheer style or want your hosiery to be as opaque as possible, we've got you covered. We found 10 tights you're going to live in all season long, and the best part?

Learn CPR and Basic life support and make your mark on someone's life. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can help a person who has stopped breathing, and whose heart may have stopped beating, to quite simply stay alive.
CPR is known to buy crucial extra minutes which can ultimately keep a victim in a state of potential successful resuscitation until paramedics arrive. This 3-hour course covers Basic Life Support skills and includes skills for adult, child and infant as well as healthcare variations on infant CPR.

He argues, at very convincing length with extensive specific evidence, that statements extracted by torture are completely unreliable — what the tortured person thinks the torturers want to hear.
He definitely claims that José Padilla's alleged dirty bomb plot was made up by Abu Zubaydah while Abu Zubaydah was being tortured. That was the issue which caused Bush to decide that the Bill of Rights and the Magna Carta were obsolete.


Every technology startup faces the question of whether to focus on a core technology piece vs. a full-stack solution. NovuMind is bringing a full-stack AI solution set to our customers.
We're in a period where AI is suddenly a top priority for every industry. It's an exciting time. But unless your company is a Facebook or Google, with in-house AI expertise, how will you seize the new opportunities brought by AI? How will you keep up with your competition, who may be embedding the powers of perception and decision-making into their upcoming products? We will be happy to sell you our NovuTensor chip for these applications. But we know that you probably need more from us than just the chip. You are looking for a complete solution.
This is the essence of "whole product" strategy that the Silicon Valley marketing guru Bill Davidow made famous. When he was at Intel, this meant providing more than just the microprocessor. Customers needed development tools, training, and an ecosystem of supporting technology. Years later, NVIDIA followed a similar strategy, building out the CUDA ecosystem to accelerate GPU adoption.
Making AI easy to use is part of our vision. We want to empower all kinds of companies, in all industries, to use AI to improve their products. In turn, AI will improve the lives of people around the world.
But full-stack means more than just making the customer's job easy. It's also about quality and performance. Selecting, training and tuning deep learning models is somewhat of a black art. Popular models have not been designed with industrial/embedded applications in mind. We can provide a combination model and accelerator chip solution that is optimized for the application and environment. This is the idea behind our plug-and-play NovuBrain solutions. Using our NovuStar supercomputer for model training can also make a huge difference. Let's say the customer has a big data set and training their model in-house used to take 4 days, and we can reduce that time to 1 hour. Now they can do 100 times more iterations than before. This will result in a better performing model.
Building a full-stack AI company has its challenges. More projects to manage, more competencies where we need to hire experts, more areas where we need to invest. But it gives us a stronger position in the market and it brings lots of benefits to our customers. It is an essential part of our strategy to democratize AI and bring all the benefits of AI into peoples' lives.

Cinema Going In Rome – Video Memories
Sharing memories across generations: A Historypin project
The exhibition structure in Rome was very well developed by the 1950s. Cinemas in the major cities of Italy were divided into three tiers – termed first, second and third run – an economic arrangement that was formalised through the licencing arrangements of local authorities. Cinemas allowed film distribution from the most expensive first run cinemas generally placed in the city centre towards the less expensive ones found in local neighbourhoods. Moreover, film exhibition in Italy had a peculiar structure at that time, as audiences also had a choice of an extensive network of parish cinemas which constituted at times almost 30% of the total number of seats. Therefore, Roman audiences had an extensive range of films to choose from and certainly no difficulty in finding a cinema theatre available.
In this map you will find cinemas in Rome in the 1950s. Each coloured dot represents a cinema. If you click on the dot you will get further information on that cinema. The map will open in a new browser tab. This map has been created using Prospect.
It provides info on 1st, 2nd and 3rd run cinemas, as well as parish cinemas, with information on the exhibition structure. Details on the individual cinema include:

A Review of Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy on Potential Clinical Applications Towards Diagnosing Colorectal Cancer
چکیده: (1630 مشاهده)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading cancers in the world and early-screening is still the best method of cancer patient survival. However, colonoscopy as the current gold standard is not without flaws and an emerging technique called surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) coupled with machine learning is a possible candidate that could be applied in parallel with colonoscopy. This paper looks into the principles of SERS along with one of the most used machine learning algorithms: principal component analysis (PCA), and linear discriminate analysis (LDA). Case studies will be presented in the SERS application towards early screening, targeted imaging, and alternative diagnosis. The paper will conclude with the authors' analysis of the current landscape of SERS implementation into clinical applications. This review article highlights the promising technology of SERS as a potentially useful tool for clinicians and calls their attention toward this emerging technology.

learn how to become much more useful to our customers, we risk redundancy.
The threat of disintermediation is not new. The best way to deal with this threat is to innovate. Granted, innovation is already a high priority on the boardroom agendas of insurance companies and brokers. But while there are discussions at high levels about innovation, industry executives and market commentators have noted that the industry needs to work harder at being innovative.
Rather than discussing innovation once a month during a board meeting, we must constantly work to improve. Businesses must adopt broader approaches to stay nimble and focus on expanding their innovation strategies.
Brokers' key roles include areas where innovation is vital such as risk management, strategic advice, and negotiation. All of these are qualities that can hardly be replaced by codes or algorithms. They instead depend on human social qualities and cannot be replaced by technology (at least, not yet). Brokers must alter their business models to emphasise these interpersonal and social qualities, their strategic advice, and their consultative offerings. To survive, brokers must adapt their role to act increasingly as holistic risk consultants, not just transactional market specialists. Such a shift will pave the way to build and maintain trust between brokers and clients. Trust is essential to maintain and attract business, and is a something else that computers cannot guarantee.

There is a huge Korean grocery near our office. I drove over the other day to study the mushrooms that they sell.
My new found interest in mushrooms is sparked by the publication of a study on mushroom consumption and breast cancer risk in the International Journal of Cancer this past February.
Researchers from Seoul, South Korea recruited 362 women between the ages of 30 and 65 years who had breast cancer and matched them to controls by age and menopausal status. All the women were questioned carefully to determine how often and how many mushrooms they ate.
The researchers took this information and calculated that eating mushrooms lowers risk of breast cancer.
The women who ate mushrooms the most frequently had a 52% reduction in overall risk when compared to the women who ate mushrooms the least often. Those who ate the most mushrooms had a 46% reduction in risk. When this basic data was analyzed by menopausal status, a much stronger effect was seen. In postmenopausal women, there was an 84% reduction in risk for the frequent mushroom eaters. Likewise, there was an 83% reduction in risk for those who ate the most mushrooms. No benefit was apparent in premenopausal women.
Numbers like these should get our attention. What is going on here?
We generally promote mushroom consumption and mushroom polysaccharide extracts as "Immune Boosters." My typical explanation to patients for eating and taking those mushroom pills has to do with the whole N-K Killer cell SWAT team story. This explanation does not explain the effect seen in these Korean women based on menopausal status. There is another and possibly better explanation for these results.
It is all about estrogen and aromatase inhibition. So first, we need to recall a bit of basic biology .
About three quarters of all breast cancers are hormone sensitive; estrogen makes the tumor cells grow. Blocking estrogen stimulation is a key component in the treatment of these cancers. Think Tamoxifen. Or flax seeds. The FDA approved Tamoxifen in 1977 and it has been the standard of care for treating metastatic breast cancer and in preventing recurrent breast cancer ever since. Tamoxifen binds to estrogen receptors and blocks estrogen from attaching and stimulating the cancer cells. This has made Tamoxifen the largest selling breast cancer treatment in the world. Estimates are that five years of tamoxifen therapy reduces mortality from breast cancer by 31%. Of course, Tamoxifen does have its down sides, like increasing risk of endometrial cancer by 2.4 times or thromboembolitic disease by 1.9 times. Let's not digress.
Tamoxifen is outdated, rapidly being replaced by a new class of drugs called aromatase inhibitors.
Aromatase inhibiting drugs arrived on the market about ten years ago and have recently replaced Tamoxifen as the accepted standard of care in post-menopausal breast cancer patients. Tamoxifen continues to be the standard for premenopausal women. The top three aromatase inhibiting drugs are Arimidex (anastrozole), Aromasin (exemestane), and Femara (letrozole).
These drugs work differently than Tamoxifen. The estrogen in menopausal women comes from the adrenal glands rather than the ovaries. The adrenal glands secrete a chemical called androstenedione which is converted into estrogen. The enzyme that converts the androstenedione is called aromatase. Blocking aromatase provides a means to block estrogen production. The drugs used as aromatase inhibitors can reduce estrogen production by 90 to 95%.
Although these new drugs are safer than Tamoxifen, they do seem to cause more symptomatic complaints than Tamoxifen. The most common complaint we have seen in patients is arthralgia or what patients call aching joints.
The symptoms can be severe enough that some patients refuse to continue treatment with aromatase inhibitors. As much as these drugs provide long term benefit in treating cancer, these patients cannot tolerate the short-term discomfort. As a result, we have been watching for alternatives, especially reports that suggest foods might block aromatase action. Here is where the grapes and mushrooms come into the story.
Dr. Shiuan Chen at the City of Hope in Duarte, California has been steadily publishing research for the last half dozen years on dietary aromatase inhibitors. At first, Chen found that polyphenols called procyanidin B dimmers were aromatase inhibitors. Knowing that grape seeds are a good source of this chemical they ran out to their local health food stores and bought every grape seed product they could fine. They tested the aromatase inhibition action of 13 different brands of grape seed extracts in cell and animal studies and found that ten worked. They published this initial research in December 2003, reporting that grape seed extracts lowered estrogen levels and slowed tumor growth. They confirmed these early findings in detail in a Cancer Research published paper in June 2006. The grape seed extracts could inhibit aromatase by at least 80%.
Chen looked at other foods looking for aromatase inhibition and curiously found that white button mushrooms were particularly effective. Other mushrooms including shitake, portabella and crimini also had an effect when tested but Chen's efforts have focused on the white buttons as they are the most available.
At this point Chen's team begun a Phase I human trial using four different doses of grape seed extract, from 50 mg to 300 mg per day, in women at high risk for developing breast cancer.
If mushrooms act as aromatase inhibitors, this might explain the Korean effect. It would especially explain why the protection was only found in post-menopausal women. Aromatase inhibition has no effect on estrogen levels before menopause.
There is an overwhelming variety of different mushrooms at our local market. Fresh and especially dried mushrooms are piled up. There are pallets filled with bags of dried mushrooms. I cannot read Korean and the English translations on the packages don't help me. The bag labels tell me all the bags contain dried "mushrooms." Some I recognize as shitake mushrooms. The sliced ones are beyond my recognition.
Luckily, our esteemed colleague Michael Uzick has studiously perused the text of the original paper with his typical care and so informed me that the paper reported which mushrooms Koreans eat the most frequently. The 'favored' mushrooms were in order of preference, Shiitake, Oyster and Enokitake mushrooms.
Does it matter which kind? Perhaps not, as our common white button mushrooms may be just as effective.
How many mushrooms does a menopausal woman need to eat to make a difference?
The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) tells me that in 2001, the average American ate 3.94 pounds of mushrooms. That is about 4.9 g/day per capita. Asian Americans ate more mushrooms, averaging 8.9 pounds or about 11.1 g/day, twice the national average.
In this Korean mushroom study, the participants ate an average 9.6 g/day of mushrooms. The women with breast cancer averaged only 7.8 g/day but the control group that did not have breast cancer averaged 11.4 g/day. Here comes Math for Dummies or how I do the math. Round that last amount, 11.4 g/day, up to 14 something grams, and call it half an ounce. Then pretend there are 8 days in a week or 4 ounces of mushrooms per week. We are talking about only a quarter a pound of mushrooms a week, or about a pound a month to possibly lower breast cancer risk by three quarters.
How shall we translate this into practice? We can easily encourage menopausal women to eat loads of mushrooms. This makes sense, unless of course the women are complaining of hot flashes, in which case they might appreciate more aromatase activity and the resultant estrogen.
I do not know whether mushrooms or grape seed extracts are useful for a woman being treated with an aromatase inhibiting drug. Will adding either increase the effect or has the drug already suppressed aromatase as far as it will go?
Aromatase inhibiting drugs have their limits. Breast cancer cells eventually become estrogen independent and the estrogen lowering effect of the drugs will no longer slow the cancer growth. Could alternating or cycling aromatase inhibiting drugs with 'food' inhibition, slow the development of estrogen independent tumor cells?
Certainly, there are women who cannot tolerate the side effects of the aromatase inhibitors and refuse to take them. These women may be perfect candidates for dietary aromatase inhibition. Some combination of grape seed extracts and mushrooms may prove to be almost as effective as the current drugs.
Eating mushrooms seem like such a little thing to tell a patient about when compared to the excitement surrounding these new drugs. Each new study on aromatase drugs comparing survival and disease progression statistics that I read lulls me into thinking that the drug companies are finally on to something great. In truth though, these data from the mushroom studies are just as exciting, perhaps even more so. It's the simplicity that fools me. What could be less glamorous or more humble than a mushroom?
This story reminds me of many of the other things we do as naturopathic doctors. We do tend to gravitate to the simplest, lowest tech, lowest cost drugless intervention when searching out treatments. Perhaps we need to add another one of those Latin phrases to our definition of naturopathy. Along with Vis Medicatrix and Tolle Causam and the rest, perhaps we need to define ourselves as the physicians who choose Simplex Res, the simple things. Like that Shaker song…..

Southold elected officials won't take pay raises
By Beth Young
Proposed raises for Southold's elected officials have been scrapped for 2011, and the town plans to use the money to put back trash cans at road ends and beaches.
The Town Board adopted a $38.6 million 2011 budget Tuesday night. It deletes raises first proposed in Supervisor Scott Russell's initial draft budget and retained when the Town Board adopted a preliminary budget.
But Mr. Russell told residents at a work session Tuesday morning that he'd heard the complaints of those who said it was unfair to give 4 percent raises to elected officials at a time when the town was trying to cut back.
The raises would have increased the supervisor's salary from $86,992 to $90,472 and board members' salaries from $30,067 to $31,270. Town justices, the town clerk, superintendent of highways, tax receiver, assessors and trustees would have received similar pay hikes.
"Some people said, 'Whether you deserve it or not, given the current economic climate, we should keep what we had' for a salary," Mr. Russell said at the work session.
"I heard a mixed-bag reaction," said Councilman Al Krupski "Some people said you absolutely deserve it and some said, 'You're cutting everything else.' "
Councilman Bill Ruland, who had been vocally opposed to the salary increases since they were first proposed, said it was important that the town maintain services for residents, particularly seniors, as a top priority, not giving raises to public officials.
The final budget also excludes raises for appointed members of the Zoning Board of Appeals and the Planning Board that were included in the earlier budgets plans.
Mr. Russell said that the money the town would save by nixing the raises — about $37,000 — would not be enough to affect next year's projected tax increase of 1.93 percent, even if it were eliminated outright from the budget. He said he would reallocate the money to cover overtime costs for emptying trash cans at road ends and to invest in more cans and in lids to keep seagulls and raccoons from raiding them.
The town removed the trash cans at the end of the summer season to reduce the cost of picking up the garbage year-round, but Mr. Russell announced last week that he planned to reinstate the program after people began leaving their garbage on the beaches, creating just as much work for town employees as when the cans were there.
The budget changes generated a mixed reaction at the board's evening session, held at Peconic Landing in Greenport. Benja Schwartz of Cutchogue said he would have preferred the savings from cutting the raises to have been used to decrease taxes, even by a minimal amount. Peconic resident Hugh Switzer said he believed elected officials deserved "at least what was put in the budget."
East Marion resident James Spanos said he'd researched the salaries of elected officials in other East End towns and found that Southold's are on the low end.
"The pay this board is getting is undervalued," he said.

Families separated at the border could have a new chance at asylum, a hip-hop group wants to erase the border with rhymes and more in our biweekly roundup of news from the border.
While the amount of drugs seized at San Diego's border continues to grow annually, cross-border drug trafficking prosecutions in San Diego's federal courts have been falling for years.
That trend predates the federal government's "zero tolerance" policy to try and prosecute everyone who crosses the border illegally.
The decision to shift more resources into immigration prosecutions has likely contributed to fewer number of trafficking cases being prosecuted, but there's something else at play, especially when it comes to prosecuting high-level cartel members: what happens in Mexico.
I spoke with David Shirk, a professor at the University of San Diego and director of the school's Justice in Mexico project, about how the changing landscape of criminal organizations in Mexico could be impacting efforts to combat illicit drugs entering the United States and whether criminal prosecutions actually help stem illicit drug operations.
Shirk said prosecutions of high-level cartel leaders result in one or more of three things: some sort of retaliation against law enforcement, internal fighting within a group to take over leadership and encroachment from rival criminal organizations.
"They all tend to lead to a violent aftermath," Shirk said, though he noted that the repercussions tend to happen more in Mexico than in the United States, and that U.S. prosecutions tend to be more effective because of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, commonly known as RICO, which allows prosecutors to not only take down leaders in the organizations, but their affiliates.
That is what has happened with the extradition of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, leader of the Sinaloa Cartel. It's caused an unprecedented surge in homicides in Tijuana and throughout Mexico.
The Jalisco New Generation Cartel, which has emerged as a powerful international criminal organization in the past few years due at least in part to Guzman's extradition, has begun to completely reshape the landscape of organized crime in Mexico.
The CJNG is a Mexican criminal group based in Jalisco and headed by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as "El Mencho." It's notorious for its violence, in public places and openly against state forces. The group has also risen with the surge in methamphetamine smuggling to the United States in the past few years. The cartel had built its business on meth in other countries, like Australia, before entering the U.S. market in force a few years ago, according to a 2018 Justice in Mexico report.
Smuggling marijuana was a different game — it's bulkier, with a distinct odor. Meth, heroin and synthetic opioids like fentanyl are easier to hide and smuggle in higher volumes.
And now, an incoming Mexican federal administration says it plans on taking a new approach to combating the drug violence, meaning U.S. officials have not only had to adapt to changes in the criminal landscape and drug trafficking patterns, but perhaps to changes in Mexico's federal government.
In August, Mexican authorities announced they were offering more than $1.5 million for information on Oseguera as the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration announced plans with Mexican officials to combat the Mexican drug cartels. Authorities vowed to put greater emphasis on attacking the cartel's financial infrastructure while continuing to target top cartel leaders.
"The new game plan is … pick up the speed and arrest more people, faster," Matthew Donahue, director for the DEA's North and Central American Region, told the Associated Press.
But a member of the incoming Mexican presidential administration has said he will rethink the country's strategy by offering amnesties to low-level people involved in the illicit drug business, potentially legalizing marijuana and tackling what he considers the root causes of all the crime: poverty and corruption.
His nominee for public security secretary, Alfonso Durazo, said that the "kingpin strategy" of capturing or killing senior cartel leaders hasn't really been working during a visit to Tijuana last week as part of the administration's countrywide listening tour, reports the Desert Sun.
But those who came to the forum in Tijuana — including family members of those who've been killed, kidnapped or have disappeared — wanted justice more than anything else, the Union-Tribune reports.
On Friday, U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw in San Diego approved an agreement proposed by the government to give families separated at the border another chance at seeking asylum, the Union-Tribune reported.
But some parents remain separated from their children because they were deemed ineligible for reunification by the government, like a mother interviewed by the New Yorker, who is accused of being a member of the same gang in El Salvador from which she's fleeing.
A video of a vendor who sells churro to drivers waiting in line to cross at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry has gone viral, and the man has been proclaimed the sexiest churrero at the border.
This Guardian photo essay gives a sense of the larger marketplace that has sprung up as cars wait — often for hours — to cross the San Ysidro Port of Entry.

To toast the pistachios: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Spread the nuts in a sheet pan and bake for 3 minutes. Set aside. In a Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat until very hot, and sauté the onions. Remove from Dutch oven with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add 2 more tablespoons oil to the Dutch oven and brown the chicken. Add the butternut squash and sauté for a few minutes.
In a food processor, finely grind the sautéed onions with the toasted pistachios, add only 1 cup pomegranate juice, the pomegranate molasses, salt, pepper, turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, and saffron-rose water, and mix well to create a creamy paste. Add the creamy pistachio paste and remaining pomegranate juice to the chicken in the Dutch oven, stirring gently. Cover and simmer over low heat for 1½ hours, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon to prevent the nuts from burning. The braise should be sweet and sour and have the consistency of heavy cream. Adjust to taste by adding pomegranate molasses for sourness. If the sauce is too thick, thin it with more pomegranate juice. Transfer the braise from the Dutch oven to a deep, ovenproof casserole. Cover and place in a warm oven until ready to serve with saffron-steamed rice. Just prior to serving, sprinkle with fresh pomegranate arils and pistachio kernels.

Q: Induction proof for n > 0 Prove using induction the following: for n > 0,
1 ∙ 1! + 2 ∙ 2! + ..... + n ∙ n! = (n + 1)! - 1
I'm not very good at proving proofs with the induction method, help would be greatly appreciated

A: For the inductive step, assume that $1 \cdot 1! + \cdots + n \cdot n! = (n+1)!-1$. Then,
\begin{align*}
1 \cdot 1! + \cdots + n \cdot n! + (n+1)\cdot (n+1)! &= (n+1)\cdot(n+1)! + (n+1)! - 1 \\
&= (n+1+1)\cdot (n+1)!-1.
\end{align*}
I leave the rest of the step and the base case to the reader.

A: Can you show that $$(n+1)!-1+(n+1)\cdot(n+1)!=(n+2)!-1$$ (and show why that matters)? If so, you've basically finished the proof, aside from a few details, like the base step.

A: (n+2)! - 1 = (n+2)(n+1)! - 1 = (n+1+1)(n+1)! - 1 = (n+1)(n+1)! + [(n+1)! - 1] = (n+1)(n+1)! + [(n)(n!) + ... + (2)(2!) + (1)(1!)]


I love to scroll through old photos and I often look through my pictures to see where we were a year or two or many years from this date. Five years ago today we were at a family reunion for the Pothiers at a beautiful camp in Utah called Aspen Grove. We were a family of five with Bennett being the most recent addition just weeks before the reunion. Hunter was in his terrible twos and Hallie was just learning the art of sass.
I'm sure if I went back and read my journals, I would read that the week long vacation with little kids was hard and I'm sure I was up most nights with the baby. But when I look at the pictures, they bring back the happy moments. Playing family games out on the grass. Hiking Stewart Falls. Tackling the ropes course. Blessing Bennett. It was a good week. Hard to believe it was five years from today.
The major benefit of writing a family blog consistently for 7 years is the family memories I've preserved. I like to look back and see where we were 1 year ago – 3 years ago – 6 years ago.
My kids are make believers. Big time. I always hear Hallie and Hunter playing house and it cracks me up all the time. They dress up. Well… Hallie dresses herself, and then throws some accessories on Hunter. But he loves it. And they always fight over the same cell phone. It doesn't matter which phone it is, even though we seem to have 20 of them lying around, they always want the same one. And it changes day to day as to which one it is!

Dr. M.L Saraf – A Teacher, Philosopher & Friend for Patients!
Why is it always better to go to an orthopaedic surgeon? We must go to one because they know best when it comes to back pain, sports injuries, chronic pains, stiff necks and so much more. This kind of pain creates a very big impact to the daily functions in our daily lives. For proper diagnosis of musculoskeletal issues, it is always a best solution to go to an orthopaedic doctor or surgeon like M. L. Saraf.
What could an orthopaedic surgeon do? They would be able to properly diagnose and give you the right treatment. Furthermore, they could advise as how to prevent and rehabilitate that injury or disorder. The musculoskeletal system includes bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, nerves and tendons. These doctors may also have their own area of specialization like pediatrics, trauma, oncology and surgery.
You don't need to be afraid to go to one because before they are allowed to practice, they have done a lot of extensive training not only in diagnosing surgical but also in non-surgical. Most of them should need to complete the 14 years of education from the university, medical school, and concentrated study in residency and specialty training. They should have passed the board exam and would have a certification for a training program. It is a must that they should be eligible before they could open up their own clinic. The good thing also about their study is that they would need some re-certification after several years which they would need to take. It helps them have a refresher of their knowledge and on the other hand, update them to modern medicine and technology.
Who are eligible to go to orthopedic surgeons? Everyone, from newborns to old people, athletes or just about anyone that would find some disorder! It would be best if you could find one good surgeon to go to the whole time so he will be able to observe your condition, they would need to ensure that medical treatments are done according to the history and preferences of the patient.
What kind of conditions do they treat? Chronic back pains, tumors, sprains, injuries, osteoporosis, rheumatoid, torn ligaments etc. these are just few to mention They could do different kind of surgeries like arthroscopy, fusion, internal fixation, soft tissue repair, joint replacement and osteotomy. If you are looking for one, take a good look at the Dr. M. L. Saraf, the leading orthopedic surgeon in Bombay. He is well known for the 20,000 free surgeries he offered to his patients and all have been potentially improved. Check out the Bombay Hospital and Medical Research Centre, he leads the Orthopaedics department as well. Be impressed and feel better with the most-loved practitioner in the city.
Dr. M.L. Saraf, the orthopedic surgeon whose identity and professionalism exceed expectations. With impressive and outstanding academic record, he is India's best-loved orthopedic practitioner who takes his vocation as a donation towards his country and the people living in it.
The armed forces are considered the tough walls that surround and defend the Indian Territory, embracing the entire country for protection against foreign invaders. So health of the armed forces is top priority. Dr. Saraf being the top medical practitioner in orthopedics is the number one medical advisor responsible for the Indian Armed Forces. He makes use of all the techniques available in treating joint replacement and trauma.
He was associated with the Naval Hospital in Ashwini, his knowledge on his practice is always sought when treating complicated issues for those of higher ranking. He also treated the wives of Adm. S.S Jain, Commander in Chief, Western Naval Command, Adm Sharma, Ashwini Hospital, Admiral Sodhi, Submarine Division, and Captain Malhotra. Most of the members of the Naval forces go to visit him regularly for opinions in health and treatment, as he is presently practicing his specialty in Bombay.
His career reached its highest point when he acknowledged two golden opportunities on request of the Indian government. One was with Bill Clinton, during his tour in India, Bill Clinton came to Bombay. Dr. M.L. Saraf headed the medical team that was assigned to take care of the former President of the United States. Second was with Hamid Karzai, Dr. Saraf was specifically requested by the Ministry of External Affairs, to provide medical advice for the President of Afghanistan.
All the patients of M.L Saraf including those who are well known and famous all over the world, know him to be a humble and giving person. No matter how much talent he has, his heart lies at the grassroots. As he mentioned in most of his interviews, "a doctors first contribution should be towards his society and the people" he has proven his words and actions through time.
For all the people who are often deprived of medical attention because of their lack of money, he gives complete treatment free of charge. He has always been an advocate of serving the disabled and the needy, which is the reason why he has participated in a number of free polio and scoliosis camps.
More than 10,000 patients who have been victims of polio he was able to treat, and because of this very kind and generous act, a social organization decided to award him with the title of Rajasthan Ratna, because he has successfully treated and operated on a total of 20,000 people, and everything was free of cost. All of Dr. M.L Saraf's patients are extremely happy and satisfied, and have expressed their continued respect and appreciation, because he has made a change effectively. Saraf, will continue to improve the lives of many individuals in India, and make life easier for everyone.
Who is Doctor M.L Saraf?
Full name DR. MURARILAL NAGARMAL SARAF is known as a vast Orthopedics Specialist and Teacher who graduated with a post graduate degree. He is known to teach his specialty at the Bombay State of Maharashtra and National Orthopedics Center. M.L. Saraf is a brilliant and in demand professional who is well versed with diagnosis, clinical management and implementation, and not only treats his patients with kindness, and respect but also makes sure that they get the best treatment that money could buy. This man is truly one of the best there is, and can serve as a modern day hero.
Throughout the years, he has been known and widely appreciated for his modern techniques in the field of joint replacement and field trauma. After being appointed at the Naval Hospital at Ashwini, He has made a number of surgeries on various senior officers in the Armed Forces where previous dealings with patients have severely failed, which is why he was very sought after by many people and have often been called upon to do work on patients who do not get to experience proper medical practices.
M.L. Saraf knew that he had reached the peak of his career and professional achievements when he found out that he was going to be asked to head the medical team to look after the President of the United States, Bill Clinton. While on tour at Bombay, the Ministry of External Affairs recognized his efforts in the field of Orthopedics and asked him to expertly advise the President of Afghanistan, Karzai.
As a frequent visitor of the hospital back in his day, the University & Medical Council in India always called him to help conduct inspections. Since a lot of his patients appreciate him so much, some of the Naval Forces Members who were based in Bombay would go to see and visit him to seek medical advise on various complicated Orthopedic cases, that other doctors cannot seem to handle alone.
Aside from being a long time participant of the Bombay Medical Congress, he would also oversee the organization of seminars and would always have a positive response from the representatives who participate in his talks.
If you were to put yourself in the shoes of a doctor, One can only imagine how hard it is to maintain a level of composure when it comes to dealing with patients, and especially if the case is particularly hard to treat, but. M.L. Saraf, is just one of those experienced doctors who can deal with anything and anybody, and yet still be able to make you feel that he cares about your condition and wants to help you.
Orthopedics is no joke, and it can be very technical because you will be working with people's bones, the main framework of the human body, which if you fail to treat correctly, can kill you in an instant. This type of practice requires any doctor to constantly update the patient, make sure of charges and other factors that other doctors may not be able to handle. M.L. Saraf has already been a tenured doctor for a number of years, and if you were to be his patient, it wouldn't be hard for you to say that he is one of the best doctors you can go to.
