Yzerman named Canada's GM for Worlds
After a gold medal-winning performance at the IIHF World Championship last year, Hockey Canada is bringing Steve Yzerman back for another successful run on home ice. Yzerman was named Team Canada's general manager for the second straight year on Monday in Halifax, the co-hosting city for the tournament. Joining him on the management team are former Dallas Star general manager Doug Armstrong and former NHLer Luc Robitaille. "Working with Hockey Canada and their staff for the world championship last year was a terrific experience, and I am very pleased to be given the opportunity to return," Yzerman said in a statement on Monday. "Over the coming months, myself, Doug and Luc will be looking to name a coaching staff and players that will give Canada the best chance to defend their gold medal in Quebec City in May." .
Steroids Are Abused for Skin, Not Just Muscles
BARRINGTON, Ill. -- Steroids have been in the press lately and given a bad name for abuse. There must be reasons why people use steroid products on a regular basis and don't know it. Our skin is the largest organ of the human body, and it needs to stay healthy. Most dermatologists treat the 15 million chronic skin patients in the US with steroids, without the patient ever knowing.Consistent steroid use for skin problems can result in thinning of the skin, allergies, resistance to steroid therapy and even Cushing's disease (a consistent redness caused by capillary blockage).Seagate Medical has launched a new natural skin care drug called epizyn that consists primarily of zinc gluconate.It is a unique patented broad spectrum gel and spray topical that penetrates skin on a cellular level to help relieve chronic skin conditions such as pruritis (itchy skin), burns, redness, acne, rashes (especially diaper rash), dry skin, psoriasis, and eczema (atopic dermatitis).
State briefs: Jan. 16
SWEETWATER - The Tennessee Highway Patrol fired a trooper Tuesday accused of taking money from a driver. Michael C. McGlothlan, 31, of Sweetwater had served as a trooper for less than a year, according to the state Department of Safety. He patrolled in Monroe County, part of the Knoxville district. McGlothlan's firing came a day after a driver claimed McGlothlan took cash from him during a traffic stop on Interstate 75 near Sweetwater, according to the Department of Safety. "An investigation determined that the complaint was factual," spokesman Mike Browning said in a press release. The agency has turned the case over to prosecutors in the 10th Judicial District, Browning said. McGlothlan won't be entitled to appeal his firing because he's served less than a year, Browning said.
Sask. woman wins legal battle against drug dealer
In fact any doctor has an obligation to ensure a patient, once under their care, does not harm themselves or others. They have no choice but to breech the client patient priviledge and alert the authorities. As I said before it generally does little good if the addict does not want to quit. In the end, it is good to see another meth dealer off the streets. It is good to see this young woman survive to tell her tale. It is sad to see her try to pawn the responsibility of her actions on someone else. This means that her and her family are not truely on the road to recovery. They are in denial. This means she will be spreading half truths to those who would engage her to speak because she had never faced the truth of her actions herself.
