Kanye West says he often feels slighted by the media, claiming that journalists either twist his words or miss the humor in his responses. Well, the outspoken rapper will have only himself to blame if he doesn't enjoy the October issue of XXL. 'Ye graces the cover of the magazine and penned the story himself, a first-person narrative in which he opens up about the aftermath of his 2009 MTV Video Music Awards stunt where he interrupted Taylor Swift's acceptance speech. "In a way, I had thrown a Molotov cocktail at my own career, and it gave me an opportunity, for the first time, to go away and find out who I was," he wrote. "Because I felt very alone. "I stress that the incident wasn't about Taylor personally," he explained. "And it definitely wasn't about race. Where I messed up is, at the end of the day, it's your show, Taylor. It's your show, MTV." After the incident, 'Ye was vilified by the public and became a punching bag for comics, critics and even President Barack Obama. He also lost onetime fans who had had enough of the superstar's stage-crashing antics. West said an apology — to everyone — was necessary. "The relationship with the public and with your fans is like the relationship with your girlfriend," he wrote. "How could I not, at a certain point, be like, 'I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been at the awards show. I'm sorry'? Not that I don't deserve to get beat up or change who I am inside, to make sure that that doesn't happen again. "I knew I wasn't in a great spot publicly after the incident, but I would just block it out and work as hard as possible and let my work be my saving grace," he added. In addition to penning a story about himself, West also curates the magazine's special 40-page section, temporarily taking the title of "creative director." The issue arrives on newsstands September 28 and will also features stories on Kid Cudi, Wiz Khalifa and a package on producers-turned-rappers a la West.

ST. LOUIS -- Carlos Silva was diagnosed with tendinitis in his right elbow and will rejoin the team in St. Louis on Tuesday. But the Cubs have not decided when, or if, to put him back in the rotation. After a heart scare on Aug. 1 and now the elbow strain, why not just shut Silva down for the final three weeks? "I haven't talked to the doctors, but if there is any risk... you want to be fair to the player, but you want to be fair to his future, too," general manager Jim Hendry said. "If there's any possibility it's going to be a lingering problem, or we can't get him ready to be stretched out enough, then we won't (pitch him). We won't take any chances, and we won't put him at risk if physically he can't get back and it makes no sense to do it."

Craigslist's decision to shut down its "adult services" listings isn't likely to end the debate over websites' responsibility to filter user-created content. Late Friday, the San Francisco-based classifieds site placed a black "censored" label on its home page over the category that some law-enforcement and other critics said was becoming a virtual red-light district. A Craigslist spokeswoman declined comment on the action. The move, whether or not it's permanent, isn't likely to stem the proliferation of Web prostitution ads. Craigslist executives themselves previously predicted that such ads could gravitate to other sites or elsewhere on its site. Indeed, antiprostitution advocates noted that ads appearing to sell sex have already migrated to the Craigslist personals section, which has such subheadings as "casual encounters." An ad from Las Vegas on Sunday, for example, read, "I can be your friend, stranger for the night and or dinner buddies." "It looks to me like the pimps are in the process of moving over to 'casual encounters,'" said Melissa Farley, the executive director of Prostitution Research & Education and a Craigslist critic. Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, who helped organize a group of about 20 state attorneys general who demanded that Craigslist shut "adult services," said the apparent decision to close the category is an "important step" in addressing the sale of sex online but "not the end game." "There is not a single magic bullet," he said. "We will continue to pursue this issue with Craigslist if the problem persists, and will continue to insist on effective screening and filtering." Mr. Blumenthal said that he has focused much of his attention on Craigslist because of its prominence but that his office is also negotiating with other sites used by prostitutes. In an interview last week before the move, Craigslist Chief Executive Jim Buckmaster defended the site's adult services section. If Craigslist were to remove the category, "it is not as though we would be getting rid of the ads—we would be dispersing them through other parts of the site," he said. Such a shift could force Craigslist to start charging for and reviewing more ad categories, he said. He also framed the issue as one of free speech. "There are lots of legitimate service providers" targeting adults, he said, citing phone-sex lines. "If users are looking to place legal service ads, it seems they should be able to place them, and place them in a separate category where they can be well managed." At the core of the issue is a debate over whether and how a site like Craigslist should screen for ads that may be advertising illegal services. "I can't think of any serious legal exposure Craigslist faced from the adult-services category," said Eric Goldman, an associate professor at Santa Clara University School of Law. In a number of legal challenges, Craigslist and other sites including Yelp have shielded themselves against lawsuits involving content by citing the Communications Decency Act. That federal law has been interpreted to provide sites with blanket immunity for content created by users, but Mr. Blumenthal disputes that. "It does not override other laws which they may be violating," he said. "There are some very serious legal issues at stake here." Mr. Buckmaster said the challenge has been developing a system that filters out ads that are illegal or at odds with the site's terms of use. In May 2009, Craigslist created the adult-services category and began manually reviewing each ad in the category before it was posted. The site has employed dozens of U.S. lawyers to conduct those reviews, Mr. Buckmaster said, because he believed they would be more effective than offshore or automated review systems, which may not be able to parse the real meaning of the ads' text. He declined to say exactly how much Craigslist spent on the team of legal reviewers but said that the site was "sparing no expense." In the first 12 months after the additional screening measures were implemented, some 725,000 ads were rejected, Mr. Buckmaster said.

Danny Trejo had been out of the joint maybe a week when he came across an elderly neighbor struggling with two trash cans. Trejo approached the woman, who saw his ponytail, pit-bull body and blanket of tattoos. She raised her hands and begged him in Spanish not to harm her. Trejo said nothing. He took the cans from her, carried them to the curb and walked off. "That's when I realized I had to show people I had really changed," Trejo says. "I had to change the way people saw me." To that end, Trejo has only partly succeeded. Many people still see him as a thug. Except now, he's paid handsomely for it. And after nearly 200 film and TV appearances, Trejo, 66, is anchoring his first big-studio film in Machete, which opens today. If Trejo is nervous about the pressures of being what director Robert Rodriguez calls the "first Latino superhero," he shows no signs of jangled nerves. "Man, look where I could have been," he says over breakfast. "I could still be in prison. Hell, for all I did, I could be headed to the gas chamber. This is all icing." Few would have pictured a film career for Trejo. Born in Los Angeles' rough Echo Park neighborhood, Trejo became known in the streets as "The Mayor," a reference to his gregarious nature (and iron-fisted rule). "I was so lazy and self-centered back then," Trejo says between mouthfuls at Paty's, a Toluca Lake diner where the waitress knows his order and he knows her as "darlin'." "Back then, I'd rather rob someone than make my own way," says Trejo, who is married and the father of three. But when he sold 4 ounces of sugar masked as cocaine to an undercover federal agent, being a criminal wasn't so easy. He spent 11 years in the San Quentin and Soledad state prisons on drug and robbery charges. One night in the late 1960s, Trejo and a fellow inmate incited a skirmish at Soledad, landing him in solitary confinement. "I knew I was on my last chance," he says. "I said, 'God, if you're out there, I'm listening. If you're not, I'm screwed.' " Trejo says he heard his mission loud and clear in that cell: to teach. Trejo completed a 12-step rehab program and was released in 1972. He became a drug counselor at his local intervention clinic. He works there still. In 1984, Trejo got a call from a drug addict he was sponsoring. The man, who was working on a movie crew, told Trejo he was tempted by the cocaine at hand. Trejo walked to the set in Los Angeles' warehouse district. A casting agent spotted his scars, crinkled-roadmap face and the tattoo of a woman in a sombrero across his chest and asked if he'd like $50 to be an extra. When Runaway Train screenwriter Eddie Bunker, an ex-inmate at Folsom Prison in California, recognized Trejo as San Quentin's lightweight and middleweight boxing champ, he suggested that Trejo take a job as a boxing trainer for one of the actors. "I said, 'Sure, just tell me how bad you want him beaten,' " Trejo recalls. Instead, Trejo trained young star Eric Roberts. When Roberts earned a best-supporting-actor Oscar nomination, Trejo was hot property. "They still stereotype me as this tough Mexican criminal," he says. "But that's OK. I was one." Rodriguez cast Trejo as Machete, a blade-wielding ex-federale, in his Spy Kids trilogy (2001-2003) and in the mock trailer to the 2007 pulp film Grindhouse. In the film, Trejo comes after his crooked former bosses with few words and plenty of metal. "Danny would talk about doing a Machete movie for years," Rodriguez says. "So when we made the trailer for Grindhouse, I figured that would be enough to satisfy our need to make the full film. But the trailer triggered even more enthusiasm." Much of it propelled by Trejo, a bundle of energy packed into a 5-foot-7 frame. He does voice-overs and soap operas. He'll do TV, like Enrique on King of the Hill and Tortuga on Breaking Bad, or lend his voice to video games. He'll even sign a body part if it's smartly tattooed. "When I see some actor who doesn't have time for an autograph, it makes me want to beat the (epithet) out of them," he says. "I think it's cute that they'll act tough and put on their little fake tattoos to look mean. But when they're out on the street they're afraid to be seen." Not an issue for Trejo, who wears his past as a point of pride. He still speaks at prisons and isn't shy about inviting co-stars to do the same. To date, he says, only Robert De Niro has taken him up on the offer. "I'm glad I took the road I took to get here," he says. "I think it makes me grateful. Every day, I remember I could just as soon be in a jail cell."

Now many people in a Chinese, I feel good. This also no wonder, because Chinese is a practice of medicine, need doctor years of experience, otherwise difficult to differentiation, suit the remedy to the case. Such as pulse, string veins, HuaMai, pulse, pulse is on the doctor feels to perceive; under Acupuncture, acupuncture points, that is accurate, gas or not, only by hand judgment... These all require a long time to meditate, feeling. And, by acupuncture doctors clearly marked by the size of the book, but the precise thorn may react with. So, many people feel difficult points to its frustratingly opaque, dare not, low.

This also is very normal, because the meridians itself is vague, is a dynamic process of development. The yellow emperor, 9:31 Gladstone needle of say: "the words of the festival procession, animation, the flesh and bones and also." Here is the "day". Acupuncture is not flesh and bones, but the air out of the parade. Animation is vital in the human body, only when it is life, and be as life activities of changes. Once life stops, the air will dissipate, acupuncture is also not exist. So with modern medicine, the anatomy is might never find the meridians.

Animation is dynamic. Accordingly, the grand parade of place also should be relative dynamic, say so meridians are within a certain range, the dynamic change. In fact, the early Chinese acupuncture is fuzzy, such as the yellow emperor · 31 Gladstone, "said:" Shu back in Shu big Zhu bone in the end, Shu lung between tri-jiao in both... that carry ridge were three inches, desire and check, according to its place, should be in pain, and the Shu also."

But now the acupuncture books? "In the lung yu thoracic spinous beside, du meridian

1.5 inches. "The position and the description points, yellow emperor, 31 Gladstone Shu back in basic agreement, but finally were abandoned a" "word." "Maybe, about the meaning, that is to say about in this place. Remove a" "word, to the person's position of acupuncture is fixed by anatomical location. Modern acupuncture to more precise positioning, seemingly" is "science", "the koreans, actually this is wrong, the more walk more.

Someone just worry, "precise" point, immobilized is the wrong way, point positioning to neijing era, the standard and grasp not scale. How do the fuzzy again "precise" to find the key to sickness? I proposed a "lesions point" this concept, "lesions point" covers, acupuncture points is dynamic, individual reflected the precise, is fuzzy, the relative static dynamic.

The focal point of by scraping and to find. Scrape can easily find out the problem
