LEAP OF FAITH: Hayden woman visits Ugandan orphanage she helped build

When the young man she’d met on Facebook asked her for money to buy medicine for a child sick with malaria, Verna Deno was skeptical. The young man — who goes by his surname, Kakembo — said he ran an orphanage in Mityana, a town in the Central Region of Uganda. He cared for more than 30 children, ranging from toddlers to young teens, though he was only in his early 20s himself. Kakembo was desperate for help to save the dying child.

Alternative treatment for Lupus

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (aka: Lupus or SLE), is an autoimmune disease that effects the body as a whole. It is a connective tissue/inflammatory disorder that can harm multiple systems such as the joints, muscles, digestion, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, skin, blood vessels, and nervous system. It is a condition of hyper-reactivity to something by the immune system and is typically treated by conventional medical doctors by suppressing immune function. This may cause it to go into "remission," where symptoms are not so pervasive, however, it does not address why the immune system is responding that way.

Are online pharmacies legitimate?

If you think that you'll get a bargain from an online pharmacy, think again. According to a 2012 analysis of nearly 1,000 online pharmacies by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP), which accredits online pharmacies and represents state pharmacy boards all over the United States, only around 3 percent appear to be legitimate. The NABP found that 85 percent of the online drugstores it looked into do not require a valid prescription from the consumer's physician, and nearly half provided foreign drugs or medications not approved by the FDA. While there are Canadian online pharmacies that are legitimately regulated, many websites that purport to be Canadian are not. Worse yet, you may not even get the drug you ordered.

Prices falling again?

Over the past months we had found that wine prices had begun a stabilization that would not only be welcomed by wineries and grape growers but to some degree was needed to ensure the financial health of the industry. In just the last couple of weeks though we have started to see broad based and very deep discounting at the wholesale price level that leads us to think we have some time to go when great wine can be had at compelling prices.
