Man wounded by gunfire on Uptown parade route, police say
This was the same area of town where a young mother watching the parade with her young son (maybe 4 or 5) and her infant in a stroller left both of them alone for about 20 minutes while she went to go buy cigarettes. Crap like this will continune as long as these kids are pouring back into the city without their parents. Here is an easy fix: Pass a law that prohibits kids under 18 from being at a parade without adult supervision. Then round them all up, impound their skittles cars and fine their parents. .
City worker deflects suspension over 10-minute run to restroom
Admit it or not, we've all been in Richard Dessureau's shoes. "When you gotta go, you gotta go," Dessureau, a Denver city employee, told a hearing officer after he was suspended from work for five days for stopping at a Target store to use the restroom without his supervisor's permission. Dessureau, a semitractor-trailer operator who stopped for less than 10 minutes "to handle a personal emergency caused by the sudden onset of diarrhea," appealed the suspension and won, according to city documents. Dessureau, who works in the field, could not be reached for comment. A message left at the home of a Richard Dessureau was not returned. On July 16, Dessureau left the city's Roslyn asphalt plant in a semi carrying "a full load of waste" to the landfill. "Just before he was to make a left turn onto 49th Street, he felt an urgent need to use the restroom," city documents state.

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).
