			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression, is a life-long illness affecting the chemistry of the brain. In classic cases, it causes severe mood swings from manic episodes of extreme highs to depressive episodes of debilitating lows, with relatively normal periods in-between. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, over 2 million people age 18 and older have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. </p>
<p>Unfortunately, there is no cure for bipolar disorder at this time. But as with any chronic illness, such as diabetes, heart disease or epilepsy, proper treatment, management and understanding of the illness is crucial. Most people with bipolar disorder can lead full, productive and satisfying lives by taking crucial steps to control and manage their illness.</p>
<p>Some key steps to consider if you or a loved one have bipolar disorder include</p>
<p>1. Find a mental health professional you trust. A person diagnosed with bipolar disorder needs to establish a relationship with a trusted mental health professional where an open and honest exchange can take place.</p>
<p>2. Take medication as prescribed. This is first and foremost the most important step in taking control of bipolar disorder. It is the one element that needs to be strictly adhered to. In order for medication to work effectively it must be taken consistently and for the long term. It may be tempting to stop taking medication as symptoms lessen and one starts feeling better. However, this could have devastating consequences.</p>
<p>3. Reduce Stress. Mental health professionals typically believe that increased stress can trigger an episode of manic depression. Finding time to relax, sharing extra responsibilities, or simply talking to someone during a stressful event may help to bring on an increased feeling of calmness.</p>
<p>4. Do not become isolated. Do not try to &#8220;handle&#8221; bipolar disorder alone. Seeking out the comfort and understanding of family and friends is central to a person&#8217;s treatment. It can be very helpful to join a bipolar disorder support group because the people there understand the feelings and difficulties of living with the illness. They can lend insight and encouragement to a person confronting a diagnosis.     </p>
<p>5. Maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is important to establish regular healthy routines such as exercising the same time everyday, going to bed at the same time each night and waking up at the same time each morning. Maintain a healthy diet and get plenty of sleep, because erratic sleep patterns can increase the symptoms of bipolar disorder. Do not use caffeine or recreational drugs. </p>
<p>6. Become an expert on bipolar disorder. Become involved in understanding the symptoms and treatment of bipolar disorder and the effects it can have on family and friends. Consult a qualified mental health professional with questions and concerns. Read books about the illness or listen to lectures by experts. Learn as much about bipolar disorder as possible because knowledge is a powerful tool in taking out the mystery of the illness.</p>
<p>7. Enhance life with enjoyable things. Make it a priority to engage in things that bring about feelings of joy, happiness, and accomplishment. Hobbies or activities that enhance a sense of peace or relaxation serve one well in dealing with the confusion of bipolar disorder.</p>
<p>A diagnosis of bipolar disorder does not have to mean the end of one&#8217;s world; rather it can be considered a new beginning. One that, at last, provides an explanation and ultimate relief from some of the unexplained and destructive behaviors a person might exhibit, freeing them to live rich and fulfilling lives.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For weeks you have been aching from head to foot. You have no energy, you cant concentrate and you cant remember the last time you got a good nights sleep. You have been to the doctor a few times already and all he can tell you is what you DONT have. You have read about fibromyalgia and even talked to others that have been diagnosed with the disease. Yet, so far, no one can tell you whether you have it or not?</p>
<p>Sound familiar?</p>
<p>Well welcome to the world of fibromyalgia diagnostics. It is bad enough that there is no cure or significantly effective treatment for this condition, but it is even more frustrating when it takes so long for anyone to tell you that the problems you are having are caused by fibromyalgia. </p>
<p>There is no debate as to the validity of fibromyalgia as a disease. In fact, the World health Organization has recognized the disease for many years. It is the diagnosis that is debatable. </p>
<p>Fibromyalgia is a very confusing and misunderstood condition. It has been known by many different names for well over a century but was not termed fibromyalgia until the 1970s. The term is derived from the actual experience of the condition. Fibro  which represents the fibrous tissues affected i.e. ligaments and tendons; Myo  representing the muscular system; and Algia  meaning pain, which is the dominant manifestation of this disease. Essentially, fibromyalgia means being in pain almost everywhere.</p>
<p>Fibromyalgia must be diagnosed through a process of elimination. In other words, before a complaint can be labeled fibromyalgia, it must first be determined that there is not some other cause. If your appendix is inflamed, you have appendicitis. If you fall and bang your head a CT scan will indicate if you have a concussion. But if you ache all over and suffer from chronic fatigue for months on end, have trouble focusing and struggle with anxiety and depression, it must first be determined what you DONT have rather than what you DO have. Because if you have fibromyalgia, there is no test that will indicate that you have it. </p>
<p>In other words, diagnosing fibromyalgia is difficult. </p>
<p>This process is very contrary to the health care system as currently structured. The optimal level of testing and analysis to reach a confident diagnosis of fibromyalgia can be cost prohibitive. As a result, the symptoms of fibromyalgia can be conveniently dismissed as psychosomatic. Conversely, fibromyalgia can become the catchall diagnosis when there is resistance to traveling the long road to a conclusive diagnosis. Either way, the patient loses.</p>
<p>Sometimes, a patient receives great relief when they are told what the problem is, even if a solution is unclear. Receiving a confidant diagnosis of fibromyalgia may not provide relief but at least it allows the sufferer to move forward to explore treatment alternatives.  </p>
<p>The American College of Rheumatology has made this diagnostic process easier for patient and physician by developing criteria for fibromyalgia that can be used in diagnosing the disorder. According to the criteria established by the ACR, a person is considered to have fibromyalgia if he or she has experienced widespread pain for at least three months in combination with tenderness in at least 11 of 18 specific tender point sites. While this may not be as definitive as a blood test or X-rays for other conditions, at least there is guidance that results in diagnosis with a high degree of confidence.</p>
<p>As for treating fibromyalgia well thats another story! Ill deal with treatments in a subsequent article. Stay tuned.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The recent hurricanes Katrina and Rita have been powerful reminders of how destructive the forces of nature can be, and how preparation for them can mitigate their effects. Avian influenza, commonly referred to as bird flu, is a powerful force of nature that we must prepare foror suffer the potentially devastating health and financial consequences. Bird flu is a viral contagious disease, just like the regular seasonal flu, but it might turn out to be 70 times more deadly. And, because of the nature of the virus, it might be most deadly for healthy children and adults, and pregnant womenjust like the so-called Spanish flu of 1918-19 was.</p>
<p>The report of the U.S. National Intelligence Councils 2020 Project, Mapping the Global Future, identified a global pandemic an epidemic that is worldwide as the single most important threat to the global economy. According to Shigeru Omi, regional director of the World Health Organization, The world is now in the gravest possible danger of a pandemic. And according to Dr. Robert Webster, a world-renowned influenza researcher at St. Judes Childrens Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, We could be heading for a global catastrophe.  Infectious-disease experts have repeatedly warned that its not a question of whether a bird-flu pandemic is coming; its only a question of when.</p>
<p>Judging from the federal governments incredibly inadequate response at all levels to hurricane Katrinawhich is emblematic of its ineptness in dealing with large national emergencies, its slow and superficial response to bird flu to date, and its lack of leadership on this issueit is clear that you cannot count on the government to protect you. You must take the initiative to prepare yourself and your family for the coming bird-flu pandemic.  </p>
<p>There are four essential areas that you must address to prepare for the bird-flu pandemic 1 social distancing; 2 commoditiesincluding food, 3 personal protective equipment PPE, and 4 financial preparation. Social distancing refers to your living and work situations when the pandemic strikes. Without going to extremes, you want you and your family to be as far away from other people as possible. Bird flu is just like the regular seasonal flu in that you become infected from other people, not birds. Although it might be possible to acquire the viral infection from birds, it is much more likely that, if you do become infected, you will have acquired the virus from another person, not a bird.  </p>
<p>The bird-flu virus is extremely contagious; it is transmitted though casual contact with a contagious person who might not have any symptoms during the first 24 hours of infection, through touching contaminated objects, and through the air. Because of this, you want to stay away from people as much as possible, and that means spending more time at home. Your children will not be at school, they will be home. If your home is on the 73rd floor in an apartment building in New York City, how are you going to avoid other people? You might want to think of an alternative living situation for a few months.    </p>
<p>The same principle applies to your work setting. If you can telecommute, that is the best scenario. If you dont telecommute now, but because of the type of work you do it might be a possibility, discuss it with your employer. If you will have to continue to work closely with others at your job site, what can be done there to help protect you and others from infection? How can policies and procedures be amended to minimize contact with coworkers or customers? Are there hand-washing stations available? What are your employers plans for dealing with the coming pandemic? Discuss these and related issues with your employer and coworkers.</p>
<p>The second area that must be addressed is commoditiesincluding food.  There will be sporadic difficulties manufacturing or producing goodsbecause workers around the globe will be sick or otherwise absent from work. There also will be supply chain disruptionsboth because workers will be sick or otherwise absent from work, and because of regional, national andor international restrictions on travel. These problems will cause a decrease or the unavailability of most or all of the products we easily have access to now. </p>
<p>Commodities such as soap, toothpaste, toilet paper, and virtually everything you can buy at stores such as Wal-Mart will be difficult or impossible to obtainfor periods of weeks or months at a time. This includes the most important commodityfood. The federal government is always telling us to stock up on emergency supplies for three days. This will not be sufficient preparation for the coming deadly bird-flu pandemic. There will likely be limited food available in stores.  In addition, stores are places you want to avoid anyway, because potentially contagious people might be there. Stock up now so that you have sufficient commodities, including food, for a period of months.</p>
<p>The third area to address is so-called personal protective equipment PPE, which you will have to use, depending upon circumstances. PPE includes special face masks, called N95 respirators, which help prevent infection through inhalation of the virus. Remember that avian influenza bird flu is a very contagious disease that can be transmitted through the air. The only way to counter this source of infection is through the use of special N95 respirators. These are disposable face masks that can be worn for up to eight hours. </p>
<p>N95 masks were the type of masks worn by hospital workers during the 2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome SARS pandemic that struck a number of cities around the world, including Toronto, Canada. Surgical masks or other common face masks, sometimes used when sanding or painting and so forth, are not effective.<br />
Other elements of PPE include disposable latex or vinyl gloves, eye goggles or face shields, gowns impervious to liquids, and sometimes disposable booties or disposable head caps. Keep in mind that during the pandemic, most people who become infected will have to be cared for at home, not in crowded and overwhelmed hospitals. This means that caregivers taking care of loved ones at home need to be protected from the virus, just like hospital workers working in hospitals. The only way to be protected is to wear PPE. Just washing your handsthe federal governments primary recommendation for caregivers at homewill not be enough. Once the pandemic starts, demand for PPE will be huge and supplies will be in very short supplyor nonexistent. Buy now or suffer the consequences later.</p>
<p>The last area that must be addressed before the bird-flu pandemic strikes is personal finances.  This is an area that governments at all levels have been mute on.  However, preparing your finances to sustain yourself and your family during and after the pandemic could prove to be the most important area of preparation. Although the bird-flu virus is deadly and many of us will fall ill, most of us will not die from itonly one to two percent of the population will likely die. The vast majority will livebut under what circumstances? </p>
<p>Think of hurricane Katrinawhere most people survivedbut where hundreds of thousands are now homeless and underemployed or unemployed.  Because of the potentially severe local, national, and international economic consequences of the bird-flu pandemic, many of us will suffer financially.  Businesses around the world will not be able to make or distribute products or provide services. There will be layoffs and some companies will go out of business altogether. At a minimum, people will be out of work for periods of weeks or months. Your child or children, if you have any, will be at homenot in school or day care. Will that force one parent to stay home from work to care for them? How will you pay your rent or mortgage and your bills under these circumstances?</p>
<p>At Benjamin Franklin said, An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.  When it comes to bird-flu preparation could make the difference between life and death, how much you and your family eat, and whether or not you can pay your bills, including your rent or mortgage. The government will not resolve these issues for you. Just like Smoky the Bears admonition, Only you can prevent forest fires. Only you can take stock of this situation and do something about it.  Think about itand then do something about it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is interesting to note that the aging dog like his master is also prone to prostatic enlargement, but unlike his master does not often develop retention of urine. However, due to the bulging upwards of the enlarged prostate the dogs rectum is compressed. This engenders a feeling of continuous fullness in the rectum and induces straining. The prostates of eunuchs are small and underdeveloped, and enlargement of the prostate is unknown.</p>
<p>Benign prostatic hyperplasia BPH is one of the most common diseases to affect men beyond the middle age. The prevalence goes up with age, and thus the total number of patients is increasing as a result of aging population. A majority of these people suffer gradual progression of symptoms and the concomitant discomfort, and require either medical or surgical treatment. The growth and development of the prostate is under the influence of male hormone testosterone.</p>
<p>Rather surprisingly, there is no close correlation between the size of the prostate and the extent of outflow obstruction. However, the larger the prostate, the greater is the risk of BPH complications such as acute urinary retention and the need for surgery.<br />
BPH is usually a slowly progressive condition. An average increase in the prostate is 1-2 cm per year. BPH is the most common condition affecting the prostate accounting for over 80 per cent of prostate disease. The defined risk factor for BPH is age. Clinical BPH seems to run in families.</p>
<p>In the early stages of the disease, the patient complains of hesitancy, a reduced stream and incomplete bladder emptying and then frequency, urgency and nocturia. Later on, prolonged micturition, acute urinary retention, urge incontinence, etc, can have a negative effect on the quality of life and may be associated with sexual dysfunction like erectile dysfunction and disorders of ejaculation.</p>
<p>The treatment of BPH can be with the help of drugs or by going in for surgery. Some of the drugs used are Finasteride, Duatasteride, Terazosin, Alfuzosin and Tamsulosin. Adverse side- effects of these drugs can be erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, reduced ejaculation, drowsiness, headache, dizziness, postural hypotention, etc.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Life can be made considerably more complicated with the onset of Crohns Disease; however, with certain lifestyle changes, it can be managed to decrease day to day stress due to the disorder.</p>
<p>Although diet does not cause or cure the disease, it has been proven that certain foods may increase symptoms of Crohns, while others will decrease negative effects. There are several diets on the market; however, an individual approach will be more beneficial. Utilizing an elimination diet, in which certain foods are removed from your diet for a period of time and then reintroduced, will let you know which, if any, foods are contributing to the negative symptoms.</p>
<p>With medication andor surgery, Crohns Disease can be controlled rather effectively. However, certain things should be enacted into your routine to ensure as little disruption as possible.</p>
<p>For example, always knowing where the bathrooms are located in the area you are in is a good rule of thumb. When you are out and about, an accident is the last thing you want to happen. While you should not necessarily avoid new places, becoming familiar with them very quickly may be essential to prevent against uncomfortable situations. Also, carrying extra clothes with you may be a good idea, just in case.</p>
<p>An effective coping mechanism is to not face this disease alone  it helps to have a friend, family member, or even professional you can discuss your feelings with. It is not a good idea to keep things bottled up, get angry or resentful because this has taken place. While emotions do not cause Crohns Disease, they have been known to worsen symptoms; therefore the better your attitude, the better you will feel physically. </p>
<p>You must also become accustom to taking medications, which may not have been necessary before. If this is the route your doctor wants to take, which most do, you have to be disciplined enough to abide by the schedule and regulations laid out to you.</p>
<p>Likewise, if surgery has become necessary, major lifestyle changes may be on the horizon. If a colostomy bag is necessary, you may feel embarrassed or disturbed at your newly required attachment. Try to look on the brighter side of things; while your health may be less than perfect, it could always be worse.</p>
<p>Probably the most difficult lifestyle change when dealing with Crohns Disease is trying to stay positive when faced with adversity. However, you will be better off in the long run if you do not allow yourself to become a victim of the disease.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Your colon transient time is the time it takes the food you eat to travel from your mouth through your rectum. A healthy time is 18 to 25 hours. This time relates to how long the food you eat stays in your intestinal tract and colon. Food, fecal matter or chyme in your colon should not stay longer than 12 hours otherwise you have constipation.  The other 12 hours, your food is in your stomach and small intestine.</p>
<p>Many doctors and others in the health field may tell you that it is ok not to have a bowel movement everyday.  This really goes against common sense.  If you eat every day, you should have a bowel movement everyday or 18 to 25 hours after you eat.</p>
<p>Long-term constipation is responsible for the start of practically all body illnesses and diseases. For this reason keeping regular is critical for your health. Constipation leads to auto-toxicity or self-poisoning of your body. When toxins move into your blood stream instead of out of your body with the fecal matter, the liver and other body organs become overwhelmed and become sluggish. With a toxic colon, you will have a hard time keeping free of disease and you will find it very difficult to lose weight.  </p>
<p>Slow moving fecal matter in the colon causes re-absorption of fats and cholesterol back into your blood stream and liver instead of out of the body. This can lead to a &#8220;fatty liver&#8221;, which cannot digest fats properly and has to store them in its own cells, other organs, and body cells as pure fat.</p>
<p>Determining Your Transient Time</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how to determine your transient time. First thing in the morning, drink one of the following drinks.</p>
<p>	one ounce of liquid chlorophyll, the juice of one lemon and 8 oz. of distilled water.<br />
	or if you like beet juice, use 6-8 oz. of beet juice. You can buy the juice or make your own if you have a juicer. </p>
<p>Buy a small bottle of liquid chlorophyll that does not have peppermint added. The peppermint added has to strong of a taste for me. The cost is around 8.00</p>
<p>Check to see how long it takes to see green or red in your stools. This is your transient time. Average transient time is around 21 hours.</p>
<p>If your transient time exceeds 26 to 30 hours, then you have a mild case of constipation.  If your transient time 31 to 36 you are constipated.  If your transient time is 37 to 48 hour you have chronic constipation.</p>
<p>Check your transient time now.  Go get a bottle of chlorophyll and do the transient time test, then use the chlorophyll for a morning green drink that I describe in another article.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Even though the United States have made it illegal to gamble online, poker keeps on gaining popularity through the different tournaments that are shown on television such as the World Series of Poker by ESPN. This created a problematic situation while players claim that poker is not a game of chance, the US government decided that it is.</p>
<p>For a few weeks, panic erupted in the poker world as rumors spread like bushfires that this ban would stop all tournaments. But this proved to be untrue. In fact, because of the online gambling ban, the popularity of tournaments only increased. And in most of these tournaments, the favored game is Texas Holdem.</p>
<p>This article focuses on those planning to take what was once their online casino pastime to a poker tournament close by. You will need to follow some basic betting structures, and we describe these for you. Even if they seem difficult to follow, don&#8217;t worry. Just practice these at home with friends and you will soon learn the flow of these wagering structures.</p>
<p>Note Remember that all the games rely on a basic maximum and minimum wager, and all the betting structures should be understood accordingly. Keep in mind that each game has a set limit that is fixed before the game commences. Once begun, the limit remains unchanged until the end. Note also that the tournament organizers or the casinos are those that decide these limits.</p>
<p>1 Structured Wagering Limit<br />
This means that there are two limits you play to. During the first two rounds, you place wagers according to the lower sum, and then you start betting according to the higher amount set. When you find a game called according to two amounts such as 48 dollar limit, then, it means that this game will be played according to the structured wager. Another thing to remember when entering such poker games is that you can only place four wagers each round and not one more.</p>
<p>2 Spread Limit Wager<br />
Here, you are free to place wagers in a pre-set range and you don&#8217;t have to place fixed bets. When you find that the limit is within a range then it means that you have found a game that will be played according to the spread limit. Examples are games which can be played between a range of twenty to a hundred dollars. Note that such games do turn out to be expensive because some might bet according to the high limit. Another variation of the spread limit bet is to have a range of four wagers. What this means is that there is a certain amount you can bet for the round before the flop, for the round on the flop, and on the round after the flop and a certain amount for the river.</p>
<p>3 Basic Pot Limit Bet<br />
In such Texas Holdem games labeled as being played according to the basic pot limit, what it means is that you can place wagers anywhere between the amount that is the big blind and the total size of the game pot. Here too, take note that games such as these can result in high cash pots.</p>
<p>4 No Limit Betting<br />
This is the one version that pulls in the high rollers from all over. Here, there is not limit at all one how much you wager or raise. Note that unless you are a high-roller or unless you have a tremendous amount of experience  at tournaments, stay clear of such games.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Malaria is an infectious blood disease caused by the bite of the female Anopheles mosquito that injects parasites into the bloodstream. This disease is reported to afflict 350-500 million people each year and causes over one million deaths. Malaria causes a high fever, joint pain, shivering, vomiting and anemia. If left untreated, it can result in severe medical complications or even death. Unfortunately, there are no vaccines against malaria though they are being researched and developed for testing.</p>
<p>The best treatment for malaria is to prevent it. Some countries have a higher risk of infection than others. There is no risk of malaria in North America and Western Europe. All other areas have varying degrees of risk. If traveling to a high risk area, it is advisable to seek consultation with a physician for preventative medications. It is also recommended that insect repellants and mosquito netting be used to reduce exposure risk. Because the mosquito has a high rate of reproduction and can become immune to medications quickly, seek a physicians advice before using any oral medications.</p>
<p>Treating malaria is much more effective when diagnosis occurs early. Treatment in the early stages is much less invasive and generally has milder reactions. If caught early, treatment can generally be accomplished at home under the supervision of a physician. Only in severe cases or cases where diagnosis did not occur fast enough will hospitalization be required. If traveling to a high risk country, be aware of the warning signs and get examined immediately.</p>
<p>Minor cases of malaria are generally treated with oral medications. It is also very important to ensure continual fluid intake so the body does not get dehydrated. Quinine sulphate, along with doxycycline, is taken orally for one week. There can be short term uncomfortable effects of this drug but its proven effectiveness in treating malaria is worth the temporary discomfort. Malarone is a combination drug that is effective but very expensive and there have been reported cases of resistance to this treatment.</p>
<p>More severe cases of malaria will require hospitalization for treatment. Constant supervision by a physician is needed to ensure correct dosage and to monitor body responses. Quinine is typically the medication provided for treatment. Medications are administered intravenously in small doses because quinine taken in too large a dose can cause complications or death.</p>
<p>Malaria is a very serious disease that is often mistaken for the flu. If travelling to high risk areas or if you have recently returned from travelling, please seek medical attention immediately if you have flu-like symptoms. Inform the physician that you have a risk of exposure to malaria. Prevention and early detection are the keys to making certain malaria is treated and cured.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>En effet, Casino 888.com sponsorisait le FC Toulouse et PartyGaming le FNCA de Nantes! Oui mais voila, c&#8217;tait sans compter sur la Ligue Professionnelle de Football.</p>
<p>Dimanche dernier, sur les maillots du FC Toulouse, on retrouvait bien les couleurs du casino mais les signes ???.com. Qu&#8217;est ce donc ???.com me direz-vous. Il s&#8217;agit tout simplement de son sponsor Casino 888.com.</p>
<p>Pourquoi?<br />
Alors que les joueurs ont pour obligation de porter les couleurs et le nom du casino, la Ligue professionnelle a, quant  elle, dcide d&#8217;exclure les casinos de la publicit et du sponsoring. D&#8217;o l&#8217;omission. Or, tout le monde l&#8217;aura compris le sigle &#8211; faisait bien rfrence au casino sponsor de l&#8217;quipe.</p>
<p>La Ligue explique son refus. Du fait de l&#8217;arrestation de certains gants de casinos en ligne depuis le mois de septembre, dont le derneir en date de Bwin arret en France, la ligue se voit le droit d&#8217;interdire la publicit, le sponsoring pour les paris en ligne.</p>
<p>Samedi, une autre quipe, la FC Monaco a rencontr le mme problme que le FC Toulouse lors de son match face au Mans. Un reprsentant de l&#8217;quipe explique que, sans cette alternative, le coup d&#8217;envoi du match n&#8217;aurait pu tre donn. </p>
<p>On se souvient encore des paroles de Jean-Luc Gripond, vice-prsident du club nantais, &#8220;le FCNA a dcid de s&#8217;associer  un nouveau sponsor disposant &#8220;premirement une dimension internationale, et notre football a besoin de partenaires de cette dimension, deuximement un lien avec les nouvelles technologies, ce qui reprsente pour nous le futur&#8221;. </p>
<p>Qu&#8217;en est il aujourd&#8217;hui?<br />
Un enqute a t mene  voir notre article Bonnes Nouvelles pour les Casinos en Ligne.</p>
<p>Les paris sont monopole d&#8217;tat en France et on pourrait penser que l&#8217;arrestation des cadres de BWin s&#8217;est opre au bnfice de la Franaise des jeux. Aussi, peu de temps aprs, la Commission europenne a dcid de s&#8217;intresser de plus prs  la question du monopole d&#8217;tat pour les paris et les jeux. La volont de la commission est clairement affiche, soit les tats membres les considrent nfastes pour leurs ressortissants et interdisent totalement les jeux en ligne, soit ils les autorisent et permettent aux socits comme 888.com d&#8217;offrir leurs services sur le march.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The brain is an infinite labyrinth. No one-despite the surmountable efforts of history and modern day&#8217;s great men-can truly decipher or describe how it ticks and how it works. Although it is considered as a powerful tool of any man who can utilize it to its maximum potential, the brain-or the mind-is not always designed for greatness. </p>
<p>Due to its inexplicable ticking, sometimes, the brain itself can be destructive to a person&#8217;s life. One of the cases in which the brain causes intolerable pain to the person affected and to the individuals that surround him is the Asperger&#8217;s Disorder or the Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome. </p>
<p>Together with Autism, Rett&#8217;s Syndrome, Childhood Disintegrative Disorder and PDD-Not Otherwise Specified PDD-NOS, Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome is considered as one of the five Pervasive Development Disorders or PDDs.<br />
PDDs or the set of neurologically based disorders has been identified to show a distinctive range of delays in different developmental stages of an individual. </p>
<p>First described in 1940 by Hans Asperger, a Viennese pediatrician, the concept of Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome stemmed from the autistic-like behaviors of boys that have normal intelligence. Since the symptoms are like those in autism, many experts considered it as a &#8220;milder form of autism.&#8221; </p>
<p>Although they have almost the same characteristics, Asperger&#8217;s Disorder is comparably the less severe form of autism. This severity in the symptoms is mainly highlighted by the absence of language delays because children who are suffering for the illness are slightly affected when it comes to their communication skills.  More often than not, these kids do have good language and cognitive skills. </p>
<p>The disorder-that is also distinguished by the same kind of abnormalities of correlative social interaction like in autism-also embodies a restricted, conventional, incessant repertoire of activities and interests. But, unlike people who suffer from Autism, the people who are suffering from Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome do not experience a delay in cognitive development or retardation in language. And unlike autism, most individuals are of normal general intelligence. But since they are suffering from a neurological disorder, they exude extreme clumsiness. Unlike autistic children that are perceived as indifferent, children with Asperger&#8217;s are more than willing to fit and mingle-only, they just do not know how. Since they are clueless on how to interact with others, they are seen as socially awkward individuals that do not have the grasp of social norms. Due to absence of empathy, these people usually may have limited eye contact, seemingly not attentive in a conversation, and do not know how to use gestures.</p>
<p>One of the common symptoms of a child who has an Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome is his or her unusual speech pattern. Since they have generally good language skills, it is quite noticeable how the child he or she uses language in various ways that usually lack inflection or doing it in some sort of a singsong. When it comes to inclination of interests, a child suffering from Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome tends to be obsessive on a particular subject. </p>
<p>Although the case of Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome is slightly mild compared to Autism and any other PDD, the threat might be a little underrated or underestimated.  Most experts agree that there is indeed a strong inclination that the abnormalities will continue up the person&#8217;s later stage of life like in adolescence and adult life. It is also possible that that as the person suffering from the disorder get older, he or she would represent individual characteristics and occasionally disturbing psychotic episodes. </p>
<p>Aside from the autistic-like behaviors, it can be said that the person suffering from Asperger&#8217;s Syndrome is he or show symptoms of language impairment, social impairment marked by impaired social understanding, obvious peculiarities or behavioral &#8220;oddness&#8221; or mannerisms. Other symptoms of Asperger&#8217;s Disorder are social delays with non-verbal communication problems, lack of spontaneity, clumsy and uncoordinated motor movements, limited interests andor unusual preoccupations, repetitive routines or rituals and preoccupation in their own world with their own agenda</p>
