These days, the world’s toughest rally is about a lot more than just the driving skills of the men behind the wheel. Proper navigation is equally important, and of course: being in top physical form. And the Volkswagen team has been working really hard on the latter in the Austrian village of Grän. We went along to watch the defending champions work out as they prepare for their Mission Hat-trick.
With only two weeks to the start of the Dakar 2011, gruelling challenges await the drivers and their vehicles. The Volkswagen team around Kris Nissen and Carlos Sianz seem strangely cheerful despite being about to face intense and grindingly painful special stages. Pointing the way to the first stage, the ‘Race Touareg 3’ travels from Europe to South America. This is very special freight indeed. The journey begins at Amsterdam airport.
The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) has begun enrollment for the first Phase I safety study approved by the Food and Drug Administration to investigate the use of a child’s own umbilical cord blood stem cells for traumatic brain injury in children. The study is being performed in conjunction with Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital, UTHealth’s primary children’s teaching hospital.

http://www.skintag-s.com Skin tags can be removed with one easy 15 minute treatment at home!
The Skin tag removal kit contains all you require to remove 30 to 40 skin tags...
and skin healing cream containing pearl oil.
Here we have a young lady with a skin tag on her neck... she is very aware of it and wants it removed.
After cleaning the area with a sterile pad, here we can see the emery board being used to roughen the surface of the skin... to allow the active ingredients to penetrate into the body of the Skin Tag to destroy it.
The applicator is used to coat the skin tag with the solution. A mild stinging sensation is normal at this stage.
Any excess cream should be wiped away.
The cream is left in place for 15 minutes, in some cases a second application may be needed where the skin tag is old and thick.
Fresh water is used to remove the dried cream and clean the treated area.
We can see as the area is cleaned that the whole skin tag has turned black! A sure sign that the treatment has been successful.
The skin around the treated area is quite red, this should be expected. There may even be slight swelling around the base of the skin tag, but this is temporary.
The healing cream containing pearl oil is then applied to the treated area and surrounding skin.
After a short time, the redness around the area has greatly reduced leaving only local redness.
After 24 hours we can see there is a little redness around the treated area and the skin tag has become darker and smaller.
2, 3 & 4 days pass... the skin tag becomes gradually smaller and hardens.
Finally, after 5 days the skin tag has fallen off ...
Leaving only a small pink patch of skin.
After 8 weeks there is no scar whatsoever, not even a tiny mark!
The skin is perfect!
