text: The formation of a simple boil, or furuncle, is caused by the invasion into the deeper layers of the skin of germs which are constantly present on the surface of the skin, and the accumulation of white blood cells brought to the spot to destroy these germs and wall them off to prevent their further spread. This accumulation of white cells is the pus, which constitutes the core of the boil.
  The question arises in what way and under what circumstances do the germs invade the lower layers of the skin? This question is easier to ask than it is to answer. It is possible the answer is that the germs which cause boils, although they look exactly like the germs which are constantly present on the surface of the skin, are, in reality, a different and special kind. And when these special germs get into contact with the skin a furuncle results.
  Or it may be that under certain circumstances the body is run down and the normal resistance to germs is lessened and in that way the infection gets a foothold. We know that this is true, for instance, in diabetes, and that it is not at all uncommon to see people who have diabetes with crops of boils. In fact, it is a regular rule for a physician who finds a patient with many crops of boils, to make an examination to see whether or not there is any diabetes present.
  All simple or single boils should be treated as early as possible, because there is a tendency once the skin is invaded for a number of boils to form in the same spot. This is particularly true in the familiar case of boils on the back of the neck.
  In the treatment of boils, the old fundamental rule of surgery always is invoked”Ubi pus, ubi evacuo””Wherever there is pus, there it must be evacuated.”
  As a matter of fundamental common experience it is wiser to allow the boil to ripen and to open it when the pus has been definitely formed. The reason for this is that at that time there is usually a sort of protective wall formed by nature around the pus so that an incision into it at that time will not open up channels of spread through the rest of the body.
  In the treatment of recurrent crops of boils, or several at one time, besides this principle of evacuation there must be attempts to raise the general resistance of the body to prevent re-infection. This can be done in various ways. Sometimes a poultice, or better, an ice pack, is placed over the affected region. Sometimes a method suggested by a German surgeon several years ago called, “Bier’s hyperemia,” in which the suction is made by cups with air bulb attachments, on the affected area. Sometimes the use of vaccines made from the germs causing the boils will bring the patient’s resistance up so that the invasion is halted.
  We’ve all made our resolutions to lose weight or eat healthier as a new year begins. We start out strong and then lose steam. Why? The most likely explanation is that our goals are unrealistic. You don’t change a lifetime of behavior just because there’s a new year on the calendar.
  I believe we should focus on trying something attainable. Not the usual “I’d like to lose weight” or “I’ll join a gym” resolution. I like to think of the new year as an opportunity to discover something new and fun, either alone or with friends and family.
  Try a yoga class or a spin class. If you don’t enjoy it, try Pilates or Zumba. Continue this until you find an activity you truly enjoy. Or, try something new and fun with family and friends. Turn off the tv on weekends and go ice skating, snow tubing or even skiing.
  If you’re already doing these things, look for healthier ingredients to add to the foods you already love. Use Carrington Farms Organic coconut oil instead of vegetable oil or add Carrington Farms Milled flax to your yogurt in the morning.
  The goal is to rediscover yourself. Find those things that bring a smile to your face and good health to your body.
  Organic apples are the number one fruit that should be bought organic. Watch this video on Mom Life TV to see why.
  Tired? Lack focus? Maybe it’s the foods you’re eating. Keep your mind sharp by avoiding these foods.
  Moreover, the main known cause of air pollution is the excess levels of carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide, Ozone and the most dangerous known is called PM 2.5.
  Thus, plants, animals, humans, air, water, soil gets contaminated by overexposure to chemicals, rarely found chemicals or not found in very high volumes in our environment.
  First of all, make your Living environment safe with these 3 simple steps to improve indoor air quality.
  By the passage of time dust and harmful chemicals settle firmly on the floor if, not vacuumed properly and regularly. Use a powerful vacuum cleaner with strong suction and good rotating brushes.
  Furthermore, don’t forget to vacuum the walls, carpets edges, anywhere and everywhere the dust may accumulate.
  Second-hand smoke or passive smoke have a more significant contribution to the indoor air pollution. It harms your family and most of all any kids in the house.
  Furthermore, cigarette smoking increases child’s risk of developing fatal infections. Asthma, cancers, may result in sudden infant death syndrome(SIDS). Hence, it is better to stop smoking “Inside-Out”
  Furthermore, you should reduce the consumption of electricity. So that less thermal plants may be operated for its generation.
  Hence, you should remember every drop of Burnt fuel contributes to the environmental air pollution. And furthermore, air pollution directly links to global climate change.
  The prostate related is an essential part of a male’s reproductive :. It secretes fluids that help the transportation and activation of sperm. The prostate can be found just as you’re watching rectum, below the bladder and all around the urethra. When there is prostate problem, it is almost always very uncomfortable and inconvenient for your patient as his urinary product is directly affected.
  Prostate infection, often known as prostatitis, is easily the most common prostate-related overuse injury in men younger than 55 years old. Infections of the prostate related are classified into four types – acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic abacterial prostatitis and prosttodynia.
  Acute bacterial prostatitis may be the least common of all kinds of prostate infection. It is due to bacteria found in the large intestines or urinary tract. Patients may experience fever, chills, body aches, back pains and urination problems. This condition is treated by utilizing antibiotics or non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to alleviate the swelling.
  Chronic bacterial prostatitis is often a condition associated with a particular defect in the gland and also the persistence presence of bacteria inside urinary tract. It can be caused by trauma for the urinary tract or by infections from other areas with the body. A patient may experience testicular pain, lower back pains and urination problems. Although it is uncommon, it is usually treated by removal with the prostate defect followed by the utilization antibiotics and NSAIDs to take care of the redness.
  Non-bacterial prostatitis makes up about approximately 90% of prostatitis cases; however, researchers have not yet to establish the cause of these conditions. Some researchers think that chronic non-bacterial prostatitis occur due to unknown infectious agents while other feel that intensive exercise and high lifting might cause these infections.
  3. Eat red meat sparingly. It has been shown that consuming greater than four meals of beef a week will raise the likelihood of prostate diseases and cancer.
  The most important measure to look at to make certain a proper prostate is always to select regular prostate health screening. If you are forty yrs . old and above, you ought to opt for prostate examination one or more times annually.
  One of my first memories of Fruita is driving into town heading west on Highway 6 & 50 and seeing Grrreta the Dinosaur for the first time in her previous post next to Dinosaur Pizza. I believe I was about seven-years-old at the time. My younger cousin, upon seeing Grrreta, shrieked and hid behind the car seat.
  I became a permanent resident of Fruita a few years later. I graduated from Fruita Monument, went away to college, married, and then brought my growing family back to raise in my hometown.
  Being a long-time resident of Fruita, I have perspective that spans the years. I remember when Circle K was the best place for an ice cream bar and to fill a flat bicycle tire. I remember when Fruita used to crown a queen each year for its Fall Festival, after harrowing and highly competitive demonstration of poise, grace, and slick dance moves (Fruita girls are notoriously excellent dancers). I, also, remember when there wasn’t much north of Ottley than farmland. My home currently sits in what was formerly an apple orchard.
  Fruita has grown to be a hub of excitement! The influx of tourism, housing developments, and new businesses has taken this town from being a place that kids couldn’t wait to get out of the day after graduation to one the most desirable areas to live, work, and play in the state!
  One thing hasn’t changed over the years; Fruita is a community that cares. As a young Fruitian I felt safe and cared for by teachers, community members, and neighbors and that feeling of belonging and concern still permeates the city’s spirit.
  Over the summer, citizens of Fruita came together at the Community Center to begin forming a coalition with our youngest community members in mind through a process called Communities That Care. Our goal is to identify where we may be lacking in services and support and build upon the things that we already do well for Fruita’s youth, like: great schools, parks, open areas, and trails for play, a community rec center/library with its variety of sports programs and enrichment classes, and easy access to healthcare with our new hospital and several nearby doctor’s offices.
  In those meetings, I sit next to business owners, police, principals, youth pastors, politicians, an even some of the best youth that Fruita has to offer, whose own desire is to uplift their peers.
  Our next steps will include outreach, publicity, programming, and bringing in anyone who had the heart to continue to make Fruita a great place to love, laugh, and grow.
  The Weldon Building is getting a makeover. The Law School is undergoing extensive renovations and is being substantially updated.
  The Sir James Dunn Library has seen two space modernization projects. Last year, with the help of Purdy Crawford (LLB ’55), the Purdy Crawford Information Commons was completed which provides students with open access to the reserve section, accessible counter spaces, and easy access to librarians and library staff. The library will also see a significant renovation to its fourth floor to create new student study space, alongside graduate student hub space and room for visiting faculty members.
  The exterior is being substantially renovated. The south, west, and east walls of the main building will each be replaced to ensure that the building remains impervious to the elements. That work will continue through 2015 and possibly into 2016.
  The interior of the building is also seeing enhancements. Over the course of this summer, the classroom spaces will be appointed with new technology to support student learning. Each of the Law School floors will see new paint and the art and artefact will be rehung and rejuvenated.
  Finally, in summer 2016, we expect renovations to our first floor to make way for a more appealing entrance to the Law School. The first floor will house a new student hub space and will provide easy access for newcomers to the building’s Dean’s and Alumni Offices.
  The Weldon Law Building was completed in 1967 and at the time it was considered a “five-story high rise” as described in John Willis’s A History of Dalhousie Law School. This is the second extensive renovation for the building since then. The last renovation began in 1986 after a blaze saw the fifth floor, where the library was located, destroyed by fire.
