FTSE 100 – Potential weakness ahead before new rise
18th September 2014, Thursday will be a watershed day for the European continent and United Kingdom. The Scots will go to the polls to decide whether Scotland can be an independent country. A "Yes" vote will put an end to a 307 year-old union between England and Scotland and create Europe's newest state since the disintegration of Yugoslavia in the 1990s.
Most importantly in the near term, this historical event is likely to have a significant impact on the financial markets. In a previous survey conducted by YouGov has shown a surge in support for Scottish independence which lead to a plunge of the GBP/USD to a five-month low of 1.6060. Even the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that a vote in favour of independence in Scotland could spook the financial markets.
Key elements
- Since hitting a low close to 6000 on 23 June 2013, the FTSE 100 has been trading in a sideways environment below the 6900 horizontal resistance which is also close to its current all-time high of 6930 achieved in December 1999 (see weekly chart).
- This one year-long plus of sideways movement has formed an impending bullish continuation chart pattern called "Ascending Triangle" (see weekly chart).
- The trendline support of the "Ascending Triangle" stands at 6600 which also coincides with lower boundary of the long-term ascending channel in place since 07 August 2011 and 76.4% Fibonacci retracement from 08 August 2014 low (see weekly & daily charts).
- The upside exit potential of the "Ascending Triangle" stands at 7600 which also confluences closely with the upper boundary of the long-term ascending channel and 0.618 Fibonacci projection from 28 August 2011 low to 23 June 2013 low at 7400 (see weekly chart).
- Price action has shown signs of "weariness" at the 6900 resistance through the formation of the "Spinning Top" and "Hanging Man" bearish candlestick patterns and the Index has recorded a daily close below the low of the "Hanging Man" at 6826 (see daily chart).
- The Stochastic oscillator has flashed a bearish divergence signal and still has room for further downside potential towards its oversold region (see daily chart).
Key levels (1 to 3 months)
Pivot (key resistance): 6900/6930
Support: 6670/6600
Next resistance: 7400/7600
The longer-term picture (weekly chart) suggests that the FTSE 100 is still evolving within a bullish trend since 2011. A clear break above the 6900 resistance of the impending "Ascending Triangle" is likely to trigger a new round of potential upside movement towards the 7400/7600 zone.
However in the intermediate term (1 to 3 weeks), the Index may see a decline below the 6900/6930 pivotal resistance to test the trendline support of the "Ascending Triangle" at the 6670/6600 zone.

The Alberta Chamber of Commerce has awarded its 2011 Export Award of Distinction to Athabasca University. The award was announced at a ceremony in Edmonton on Friday, March 4th. The award was one of several presented at the annual ceremony that recognizes the province's top business performers.
"I would like to applaud the Chambers of Commerce for seeing the power and impact of a slightly different kind of export – one that does not involve a manufactured product in the traditional sense, but one that contributes mightily to our province's and our country's productivity and global influence," said Dr. Deborah Hurst, associate dean of AU's Faculty of Business. Hurst accepted the award on behalf of AU president, Dr. Frits Pannekoek.
"As Canada's leading distance and online education university, we export knowledge and education, and we do that on a global level. This award is an acknowledgement of the value of these exports and confirms their impact on our dynamic, global knowledge economy," she said.
Athabasca University has students in more than 80 countries worldwide. The university has derived more than $7.5 million in revenue from exports over the past three years.

You can use a body exfoliating lotion or else you can make a natural one with sugar and olive oil. Try it-it's incredible! This is one of my most ancient ideas. I don't keep in mind where I read it or from whom I learned it, but the reality is that I utilize it weekly and I love it! All you require are 2 teaspoons of white sugar and four tablespoons of virgin olive oil (if you choose, you can use moisturizing body oil, but olive oil has worked well for me. Mix together well and use to your hands, rubbing them gently. Don't forget the fingers and the nails. You can likewise use this exfoliating lotion on your elbows and forearms; then wash yourself with lukewarm water. Your hands will feel soft and like new!
Palette A palette is a surface on which a painter blends it colour pigments. A combination may be made of wood, glass, plastic, ceramic tile or perhaps inert product and could vary highly in size and shape.

Creating landing pages can be difficult if you don't know the basics. If properly presented, these pages can persuade visitors to complete certain actions and boost your marketing campaigns. Landing pages are also useful in promoting ads, guest articles, newsletters, product launchings, new pages, and more. How do you make effective landing pages that will encourage visitors to take action? How will you widen your customer base and generate more leads using these pages?
One way you can drive traffic to your landing pages is to make them appear as pop-ups as soon as visitors visit your home page. This will immediately attract their attention and engagement. If visitors close the prompt ad, you can place ads on the right side of all pages on the center position. Make the ad colors distinct from the background to make it noticeable.
When visitors click on the ads, greet them with a message. Tell them what you want to introduce: a new product, a giveaway or a webinar. Build your landing page around your call-to-action statement to ensure your visitors understand what you want them to do. A rambling and jumbling call to action will weaken your campaign and make it unsuccessful.
According to Dainis Graveris of 1stWebDesigner.com, a landing page should have the following elements to engage visitors and make them browse your website more often:
1. Page Headlines
The headline is one of the first things we see when a page loads. Make your headline catchy to engage your users' attention. A well thought-out headline will grab attention and give the reader an idea on what the page is all about. Make sure the headline and advertisement wording fit together. A lack of connection between the two will only confuse readers. It also helps to make your headline keyword-optimized to make it appear on the search engine results and make it more visible to other web users.
2. Secondary Headlines
The headlines should also be clear and concise, and compelling enough to catch visitors' attention. The words should convey what the page is all about in a 'short and sweet' manner.
3. Page Content
The page content should be easily understood by your readers. Avoid using big words that will make them look for an online dictionary. Use 'you' often to concentrate the message on them. Make your piece persuasive enough to compel them to follow the call-to-action statement. Your content should have impeccable spelling and grammar. A wrongly spelled word or awkwardly stated sentence can detract the trust of your visitors and make them doubt your credibility. In addition, highlight the benefits your visitors can get should they follow the call-the-action. This will intrigue and persuade them to get that ebook you're offering or sign up for a trial period on your offered service.
4. Trust Indicators
A page is more trustworthy if there are testimonials, third-party trust and security certification, guarantee seals, and press mentions. These indicate that the business is reliable enough to ensure their online privacy and security. This would make it necessary to verify every detail you put on your landing page so you would not be proven wrong and be considered a fake. Look up details on how you'll to get Better Business Bureau accreditation, VeriSign approval, and other security certifications.
5. Call-to-Action Statements
You need call-to-action statements that directly instruct visitors on what to do. Avoid using vague statements like, "Try our product today!" Instead, frame your call to action like this: "Order a diamond ring today!" The second statement will get more clicks because it's phrased in a clear manner. The first call to action will not get as much response because it is uncertain how a visitor will try a product, unless you're offering a free trial.
6. Conversion Buttons
Conversion buttons should be bright, bold and clearly highlighted. It should stand out because visitors might change their mind about the action you want them to do if they cannot immediately find the 'Click Here' button. In place of 'Click Here,' you can use 'Download Now,' 'Buy Today,' and use signal words like 'new' and 'free.'
7. Links
Keep the links few and simple as possible. You don't want your visitors distracted by many links while they're in the middle of reading your content. Minimize the number of links to three or four to make visitors focus more attention on your headlines and call to action. Your links may point back to 'Home,' 'Products & Services' and 'Contact Us.' Do not make the links look like the tab titles you have on your website's home page. This will prove to be off-putting and make your visitors click on them instead of reading your landing page.
8. Images and Videos
Make your visitors more interested on your landing page content with well-taken pictures and videos. Don't use stock photos as this can hurt your authenticity in the eyes of your visitors. Use pictures that display your product well or post a video on how to use your product. You can also give actual demonstrations and show your viewers the benefits of using the product.
9. Above-the-Fold Position
When you're making a landing page, make sure your visitors don't have to scroll down the page to read the whole content. Some viewers neglect to scroll down as they tend scan the content and encode their details. This makes it important to ensure that the landing page is visible 'above the fold' and do not make scrolling necessary.
10. Landing Page Experiments
Test which copy, call-to-action, headlines, photos and videos get the most clicks and engagement from your visitors. Use analytics to help you learn which page will be more suitable for your campaigns. This will help you earn the high engagement and conversion rates you need to make online marketing a success, as well as avoid this scenario:

Campeche – a stunning colonial UNESCO World Heritage site in Mexico's Yucutan Peninsula – is like something straight out of a fairy tale, complete with pirates, beautiful mansions and old-world forts to protect the damsel in distress. Located on the opposite side of the Peninsula, but seemingly a world away from Cancun and the Maya Rivera, Campeche stands in stark contrast as a place where the world slows down, authenticity is rife and locals can be seen going about their daily life. The main attraction here, and that through which Campeche earned it's UNESCO designation, is the historic old town with outer walls and fortifications designed to defend the Caribbean port for the omni-present Pirate attacks in the 17th and 18th century. While the main wall was completed too late in the game to protect the city for the worst of the attacks, today most of the fortified baluartes (bastions or bulwarks) have survived making for a great way to re-enact your Pirates of the Caribbean fantasies! Within the old-town, every building has been painstakingly restored in pristine pastel perfection – all the muted colours of the rainbow are on display here and just walking the narrow cobblestone streets will inspire you to grab your camera at every turn. With well over 2,000 historic buildings protected and returned to original condition, the historic centre itself is enough reason to visit but just outside the city walls you can get your typical Mexican big city fix, with a crazy market, tranquil malecón (sea-side walk), intriguing street art and shopping malls if you need it. Back inside the old town, it seems international tourists have not yet figured out the secret of Campeche – so prices remain low, everyday life continues on and domestic tourism and the relaxed lifestyle on offer provides just enough drive for dozens of eateries, bars and cafes (all of unexpectedly high quality) that are dotted around the town and it's central street. An absolute must-see place on any trip to Mexico – here are 11 top things to do in Campeche Mexico to convince you that you absolutely just have to go to Mexico's Rainbow City!
Havn't looked at accomodation in Campeche yet? Don't worry I've got all the best deals and price right here, and by booking in advance you can get the cream of the crop!

An unexpected treasure that at only 30 pesos is a steal for the rich variety of Mayan antiquities and stelae stores here from all over the Peninsula. Well-explained and jam-packed, this small museum is also housed in an old part of the city wall so don't forget to head up top afterwards for an incredible view. A great introduction to Mayan culture and their written language, yet detailed enough for those who have already visited a few ruins to find something of interested.
[photosetgrid layout="12″]
Just wandering these storied streets leaves you in awe – not only of the shear number of pastel colours Campeche seems to have discovered, but also of the preserved mansions you get glimpses of through iron bars or of glorious churches built in a time when money, gold and trade thrived here. Catedral de Nuestra Señora de la Purísima Concepción is probably the most stand-out building in the city, with its baroque façade and uncharacteristically austere interior – This beautiful limestone structure towers over the town and reminds it's citizens who is number one. Pack your camera and hit the streets however and you are sure to find your own favourite building – there are over 2,000 to choose from after all! Wandering these streets is easily on of my favourite things to do in Campeche Mexico.
A glimpse into high society and what was once the cities most prestigious address, across the green plaza rom the Campeche Cathedral. A typical upper-class house from the pre-revolutionary era you can learn more about the cities changing fortunes and global trade relations here through the furniture on display. Only $2 USD a visit it is well-worth it, though one gets the feeling you could just as simply see much of this by walking into any of the local houses in the area – which speaks only to how well the town has preserved its heritage. A small patio at the back is great to enjoy a book – which coincidentally can be brought from the small boutique bookshop here with everything Campeche related you could ever imagine…and then some!
With a unique position on the Yucutan peninsula Campeche is granted those 'to-die-for' sunsets that the Mayan Rivera and Cancun can just never have. Full of deep reds, oranges and yellow every night is a unique piece of art that you would do well to take time to appreciate. While the sterile malecón by the seaside seems to be a favourite amongst locals to view this masterpiece, I personally preferred the most intimate and relaxed surround's afforded by H177 Hotel's exclusive roof-top terrace. For guests only, I can also highly recommend this hotel (and you can read my H177 Hotel Campeche Review here) not only for it's staff, rooms and price – but also for it's rooftop lounging to appreciate the sunset every night which seems to go for hours!
[photosetgrid layout="13″]
As previously mentioned, the variety of dining establishments in Campeche is likely to bewilder – if not out right blow away, and there is something for everyone. From fine-dining and steak houses, to quiet cocktail bars, delicious pizzarias and loungeable cafés. I was in foodie heaven (or at least a food coma for most of the time!). I happened to be there during the cities famous restaurant week so was able to sample plenty of dishes, and I loved everything – but my favourite's would have to be Luan Café, Café Sotavento, La Parrila Colonial for something a bit more upscale or Casa Vieha del Rio for a great cocktail and unbeatable view of the Campeche Cathedral. If you are ever stuck for inspiration Calle 59 houses the cities dining precinct, is closed to traffic, and has plenty of outdoor seating for food inspiration. The must try food of this region, or the typical campechano dish, is undoubtedly pan de cazón – a intriguing layered tortilla contraption complete with minced shark meat straight from the cities harbour, beans and a heavy dose of tomato sauce. Also try camaron de coco (prawns in coconut) or horchata de coco (rice and coconut drink) and in no time you'll fit in with the locals. !Buen provecho!
The closest Mayan Ruins to Campeche – this site, while not UNESCO listed, covers over 17 square kilometres and was in use for over 2,000 years, from 600 BC all the way through to the 15th century! While lacking the fame of Palenque, Tikal or Chichen Itza, this also has it's own advantages as you can wander practically free of tourists and wonder what led to this great cities decline and eventual abandonment. For serious ruin buff's UNESCO listed Uxmul is only a 2 hour bus trip away and can be done on the way to or from Merida – the biggest city in the Yucutan, but for now we are still focused on things to do in Campeche Mexico!
Not only did those colonial Spanish seek to wall up Campeche in it's heyday as protection for pirates, they also rushed to develope secondary defences including Fuerte de San Miguel about 2 kilometres south of the city along the coast. The views and sunset's along here are to die for – up on a hill looking out across the empty blue ocean, but the fort itself still remains a highlight complete with a large (empty) moat, a draw bridge and large stone walls that still keep any intruders out. If you can't bare the heat of a middle of the day visit, the Fort also houses the excellent Museo Arqueológico de Campeche that contains many Mayan pieces of art from Calakmul and Edzná – including burial art, jewellery and a jade mask. Don't ask me why they decided to house it here and not in the cities Mayan museum, but it is definitely worth a peak! A taxi from the center city is 50 pesos or a bus that plies the main highway below is 7 pesos. Also be sure to combine with the below Campeche attraction.
[photosetgrid layout="12″]
While the golden age of piracy in the Caribbean may long be gone – tourists and locals alike can still live out their buccaneering fantasies on weekends here with a unique city tour from the ocean on a real Pirate ship at sunset then head back to town for a pirate lights and acting show at the Puerta de Tierra (Land Gate) where visitors both young and old are treated to light pyrotechnics, a history lesson (in Spanish) and a rather eery walk on the city walls at night. For extra authenticity head to one of the many bars around after for some rum and grog! The Pirate Ship leaves at 5 pm from the seafood restaurant El Faro del Morro just underneath the San Miguel Fort on Saturday and Sunday nights and the Pirate show in Campeche starts at 8 pm on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. – Whether or not you have children the Campeche show is one of the most fun things to do in Campeche Mexico!
[photosetgrid layout="12″]
As one of the largest trading ports in the New World, Campeche was constantly under pirate attack. One of the worst was the Sacking of Campeche in 1663 by over 20 ships (the biggest pirate attack in history!) that sent shockwaves around the world and forced King George of England to cease all state sponsored piracy – though buccaneering continued on in a private capacity. Still, after this assault the King of Spain was forced to construct Campeche's now famed walls to protect the city which took over 50 years to construct and at over 2 kilometres long and 8 meters wide they made the city practically impregnable. Fortunately they were never really tested after this and today 7 of the 8 bastions of the wall remain (along with two section of the wall). Each of the bastions houses some sort of small museum that is worth checking out, and one houses the Jardín Botánico Xmuch Haltún (a Botanical Garden) which I thought was incredibly unique.
A free museum on the main square, the Museum of the City Campeche has been recently renovated and now houses a very modern showcase of the cities history from the Mayan times, through Conquest, Colonization, Pirate Attacks and through to Campeche's rivalry with Merida and Campeche's role in Mexican Independence. Highlights are some of the period clothes; scale replica's of Campeche during different era's, a reconstructed room of a ship and several muskets and antiques. The major texts are also in English!
[photosetgrid layout="13″]
While inside the picture-perfect old town of Campeche you will only find pastel colours adorning the exteriors of buildings, if you take a little time the urban art of Campeche will both delight and surprise. Always changing and hard to pin down, one of my favourites the modern art-deco art work in front of the uninspired and out-of-place Palacio de Gobierno (Government Palace) on the edge of town. Be sure to keep your eye on the giant canvases in the sky that are the sides of new buildings outside of town, or peak into empty carparks or alleys to see what awaits you. While nowhere near the famous street art scene in Buenos Aires or Sao Paulo – Campeche is modest, which makes every discovery all the more delightful!

*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Just got done watching Only God Forgives.
And if you liked Drive, watch this one!
All jokes aside, this movie is not for everyone. Not only because of the gore it offers, no. The whole directing style, it's clearly aimed to deliver something artsy, something out of place, something that makes you lean back at the end and say "wow". There is little to no action in this movie, there is no comic relief, there are a little thriller elements. Ryan Gosling's performance is incredible, he has about 30 lines and that's it. His counterpart is a cop who brings justice to thugs and gangsters by sword and is being played by Vithaya Pansringarm. Ryan Gosling's character descents into madness as the movie progresses, but it doesn't show it obviously. It gives you low key hints here and there. Soundtrack by Cliff Martinez (Drive) and directed and written by Nicolas Winding Refn.
SPOILER SECTION Don't READ FURTHER IF YOU WANT TO WATCH IT
Julian's (Ryan Gosling) whole family seems to be f'ed up. His brother rapes and murders underage girls, his mother calls assassinations on people and Julian himself killed his own father, probably on behalf of his mom. Now the thing is, the movie pictures Ryan Gosling's dark and violent fantasies when in one scene, pictured by wearing a black shirt, beats random people up in his club and then dragging them out while grabbing their teeth. The cop who serves justice by sword, Chang, has such a BIG role too. Every time he's served his justice by sword, he returns to a Karaoke bar with the rest of his police squad and sings a Thai song, while all the other officers look at him and show a feeling of awe and guilt at the same time. In one scene you can get a glimpse at one of the officers having wet, red eyes, implying that he was crying. As for the comparison with Drive, Ryan Gosling's character dies in this movie and doesn't play the hero. But it basically has the same soundtrack director and the same Director. So if you liked Drive, watch this one! I rate this movie 8/10.

By "well prepared," I mean someone who has had the necessary prerequisite learning experiences and who has succeeded in those experiences. A person who is well prepared is ready for the current learning experience in terms of prerequisite knowledge and skills.
This may be true in formal educational settings (to a degree), but I think it doesn't apply as much to MOOCs. Depending on the content of the course, an open, online course provides all participants to share ideas in the manner they choose. Learning can occur not only through question and answer, but simply through a process of sharing diverse opinions. Sharing diverse opinions can occur regardless if one is a novice or expert as terms such as "novice" and "expert" can be misleading representations, even in formal circles. That's why ZPD falls short in adequately explaining how people learn in real life; that is, that we learn when we teach others regardless of the expert or novice labels. When there is open interaction, invariably individuals are teaching and learning through an iterative and reciprocal process. Teaching others can occur at many levels and this is what ultimately happens in a MOOC - Instruction occurs most often through the participants themselves.
Depending on the subject matter, it is quite possible to enter a MOOC unprepared and leave prepared (the act of becoming prepared is a learning process). The point really is whether a person knows more after (and because of) having taken the MOOC or not?

Hurricane Bud grows off Mexico's coast
Category 2 hurricane is about 225 miles southwest of Manzanillo

Hurricane Bud strengthened off the southwest coast of Mexico Thursday and was expected to approach land by late Friday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said.

A hurricane warning was in effect from Manzanillo northwest to Cabo Corrientes while a tropical storm warning stretched from Punta San Telmo west to Manzanillo. A hurricane watch was in effect from Punta San Telmo west to Manzanillo and a tropical storm watch was in effect from Cabo Corrientes to San Blas.

The LPL Research Outlook 2018: Return of the Business Cycle highlights the opportunities and potential challenges that may lie ahead for market participants as we get back to the traditional drivers that we'd expect to push the economy and markets forward.
For the majority of this economic cycle, accommodative monetary policy has supported growth and the markets have relied on central bank intervention to keep the expansion going. "Return of the business cycle" refers to a return to the traditional forces that have historically propelled the economic cycle forward. Instead of relying on central bank intervention and accommodative monetary policy, we're turning to some new lead characters to take charge: fiscal policy and better business fundamentals. Fiscal policy means increased government spending, tax cuts, and some regulatory relief. As far as business fundamentals, we expect to see improvement in revenue, earnings, and future growth prospects.
Increased business spending is also expected to play an important supporting role for the U.S. economy, and could see a faster growth trajectory in 2018. For stocks to potentially reach attractive gains, earnings growth will be a key driver. Better global growth is supportive of earnings, and tax reform has the potential to provide an additional boost. All of these factors, and more, will be important to watch in 2018.

At least wrt the Italian (and most european law, AFAIK), the idea is that copyright expires after a certain amount of years. So a source file with copyright 1999 will expire 4 years before a 2003 one. Not a big deal, I don't think that anyone will really care around 2070, but you never know. :-) But don't trust me on that.

That Was Fun
Hello Ignite Seattle folks (and other new readers)! If you're here to read more about the roller-coaster ride that has been my fight with lymphoma during the last year, I recommend looking at the "Archives" section along the right side of the page. That gives you quick access to each month's entries.
Or, for the abridged version:
- the very beginning
- the first mention of lymphoma
- double lymphoma
- chemo begins
- so it, uh, spread to my brain
- preparing mentally for a stem-cell transplant
- home from the hospital, starting recovery
I really enjoyed giving an Ignite talk. Now I need to think of a good topic for my next one!

Mid-Century Modern Beds
Showing 1 - 13 of 13 Results
The Blu Dot Nook Bed is one seriously good-looking bed! The result of a curved, upholstered headboard flowing into a slim padded frame. It's enough to make you want to leave the lights on. The Nook Bed is available in all four standard sizes (sorry, no Cal King) and a range of both bright and neutral colors.
The Gus Modern Switch Bed is two beds in one. Atop a stainless steel base, this bed features a fully upholstered headboard, side rails and footboard. Anytime you feel like changing up the look, the headboard is easily reversed to reveal a different stitched pattern. Within the frame, a sturdy suspension system eliminates the need for a box spring.
With its deeply splayed legs, the Copeland Furniture Astrid Bed with 1 Headboard Panel is an elegantly modern feat of engineering. It is made entirely out of solid hardwood, in a range of possible finishes protected by a Greenguard certified top coat. You can adjust the headboard to be 36" or 39" tall to accommodate mattresses of varying thicknesses.
Modern design has never been so comfortable. The most distinctive feature of the Calligaris Taylor Bed is its headboard: two separate plushly filled and upholstered panels. The entire bed is upholstered, in fact (except for the legs). The beveled curve and thick seam around the base complement the headboard's curves and tailoring.
The Blu Dot Hush Bed is stealthy. A wafer thin upholstered headboard and padded side rails are supported by a brushed stainless steel base, giving the frame a sturdy yet subtle persona. Choose from several colors and sizes and turn the volume down for a bit.
An airy, angular look for modern bedrooms. The Copeland Furniture Astrid Bed has deeply splayed legs that create dramatic cantilevers; it's an unexpectedly elegant element that's also a verifiable feat of engineering. This platform bed is made entirely out of solid hardwood with the chosen hand-applied finish protected by a clear, Greenguard certified top coat.
The Calligaris Wynn Queen Bed with Storage Unit pairs plush comfort with convenient storage. The entire bed is upholstered, with a thick, tufted headboard that curves inward for a protective, hug-like feel. Meanwhile, the mattress frame is easily lifted at the foot (via gas pistons) to reveal a roomy storage compartment underneath.
Wave goodbye to a boring bedroom with the Copeland Furniture Wave Bed. Solid panels of maple or walnut create a frame with a simple profile...and a complex, organic-looking texture. The headboard is hand carved with smooth, deep and curvy waves. Wood legs that match the chosen finish or retro metal hairpin legs complete the look.
With a name that means plump in French, the Blu Dot Dodu Bed appropriately adds a plush, cushy felt-upholstered frame around a bed. While soft, the generous headboard and sculptured frame (finished with French seams) also create an overall clean, low-profile effect. Available in a range of Thurmond felt colors to accommodate any size mattress.
A modern bed that's fully upholstered and fully fashionable. The headboard of the Calligaris Evelyn Bed is particularly plush and neatly tailored, with tufting at its center and seams at either end revealing the headboard's nearly 7 inch thickness. Customize to your space with choice of upholstery fabric (which is removable for easy cleaning) and leg finish.
Rest easy (and contemporary) with the Calligaris Dixie Bed. This sleekly elegant bed is distinguished by the subtly rounded shape of the headboard and the lovely tone and texture of the wood veneer used to make it and the sideboard. For the front legs, you can choose pointed polished aluminum or wooden peg legs that match the rest of the bed.
The Gus Modern Carmichael Bed is a distinctive blend of traditional and contemporary style. A tall, angled headboard, footboard and side rails are all crisply upholstered in grey (dark or light) fabric. Within, a sturdy steel mattress suspension eliminates the need for a box spring, and accommodates king or queen-sized mattresses of any height.
The Copeland Furniture Astrid Bed with 2 Headboard Panels features deeply splayed, cantilevered legs, an elegantly angular touch for modern bedrooms. The bed is made entirely out of solid hardwood, with the chosen finish protected by a Greenguard certified top coat. You can accommodate mattresses of varying thicknesses by adjusting the headboard panels to be 40" or 44" tall.

According to WebMD, the main benefits of vitamin B12 include helping the body maintain a healthy nervous system and creating new blood cells. Newsmax notes that other benefits of vitamin B12 include maintaining a healthy digestive system and keeping hair and nails strong and healthy.Continue Reading
WebMD reports that vitamin B12 can also be used for memory loss, boosting mood and energy levels and improving concentration. Additionally, vitamin B12 is likely effective in reducing a condition related to heart disease called hyperhomocysteinemia. Vitamin B12 may also be effective in preventing an age-related disease of the eye called macular degeneration. Topical vitamin B12 can be applied to the skin to treat psoriasis and eczema.
According to WebMD, a deficiency of vitamin B12 can result in a form of anemia called megaloblastic anemia and cause such side effects as fatigue, weakness, upset stomach and pale skin. A blood test determines the level of vitamin B12 found in the blood. Vitamin B12 is found in foods such as meat, shellfish, milk and cheese. Therefore, levels of the vitamin can be increased with a properly managed diet or vitamin B12 supplements. The amount of vitamin B12 that is recommended varies and depends on a person's age.Learn more about Vitamins & Supplements

* This is Episode #55 for Jan 16, 2010.
* Before the episode gets started, I want to take a brief moment of your time. On January 5, 2010, Natalie Morris, the wife of Tee Morris, passed away. Tee Morris is well known in the realm of podcasting, being the very first podiobook author. He has been an inspiration to me and many of my fellow podcasters. Tee now has the unenviable job of raising his daughter, lovingly nicknamed "Sonic Boom", on his own. Phillippa Ballantine recently set up a Chip-In account online to raise money for a college trust fund for "Sonic Boom", as well as holding an auction soon, dubbed The Boom Effect, to further contribute to the fund. If you haven't already heard about these efforts I want to point you to the websites. They are RememberNatalie.org and TheBoomEffect.org.

* I finished reading SOULLESS by Gail Carriger.
- What a delightful book! 10 out of 10! It is funny, action-packed, romantic, sexy, and full of Victorian vampires, werewolves, and ghosts! Oh my! I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I am eagerly awaiting the sequel! A full review, and hopefully an interview with the author, will follow soon.
* This winter Great Lakes Theater Festival in Cleveland, Ohio will be presenting a new one-act play, THE DARK SIDE OF TWILIGHT by David Hansen, as its free, outreach touring play.
- It will play in 21 venues across three counties in northern Ohio as part of its community outreach "Surround" programming. THE DARK SIDE OF TWILIGHT is inspired by four pivotal examples of Gothic vampire literature - Polidori's THE VAMPYRE, Stoker's DRACULA, Rice's INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE, and Meyer's TWILIGHT. The performances, free and open to the public, begin in mid-February 2010 and run for about a month.
- David let me know about his play and offered to send a draft of the play my way to read. It is an absolutely wonderful homage to vampire literature. Full of suspense, romance, drama and some laughs, sprinkled with lots of nods to the genre that made me smile. If you are in Ohio, you should definitely check this out.

Vera Farmiga to Play Fleetwood Mac Singer
But not Stevie Nicks, FYI.
... but no, she's not playing Stevie Nicks. Instead, Variety reports that Farmiga has signed on to indie biopic The Drummer to play Christine McVie, the Fleetwood Mac singer-songwriter who spent years in a tumultuous relationship with Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson (to be played by Aaron Eckhart) before his early death in 1983. Farmiga shouldn't have any trouble on the keyboards: She's a classically trained pianist, and producers promise that she and Eckhart will share several duets. They'll make loving fun!

Although the causes and consequences of human impacts on coastal
ecosystems have been studied extensively over the past 50 years,
most of this research has lacked an integrative approach. This
situation is largely due to the fact that impacts such as those
caused by harmful algal blooms (HAB), diseases, and pollutants
are often studied by scientists trained in specific disciplines.
There is a growing realization that such narrowly focused studies
cannot adequately elucidate the complexities associated with
the health of coastal ecosystems. In addition, human impacts
and their causative pressures are often a consequence of large
scale driving forces (e.g., climate change) that cannot be fully
understood by isolated research efforts. In order to ensure
an interdisciplinary approach, post-doctoral fellows and graduate
students will receive broad training in marine sciences (oceanography
& marine biology) and specific training in one of several
focus areas: Marine Pathogens/Diseases, Emerging Pollutants,
or HABs. Cross-disciplinary collaborations among I-RICH participants
will likely lead to novel approaches and understanding of coastal
environments, human impacts and the direct and indirect effects
on human health.
The consortium is made up of three major collaborating institutions
as well as several other participating units.
I. Collaborating Institutions
1. University of Connecticut
- The top-ranked public university in New England according
to the latest published annual report on R&D Expenditures
in 2006. It is a fully accredited institution and has ample
capacity for graduate training, post-doc mentoring and research
a. Department of
Marine Sciences carries out excellence in research, scholarship,
education and service in the area of coastal ocean science.
For more information contact Drs. J. Evan Ward (email@example.com)
or Hans Dam (firstname.lastname@example.com).
b. Department of
Pathobiology and Veterinary Science pursues research, outreach
and education relevant to a broad diversity of infectious diseases.
For more information contact Drs. Sylvain DeGuise (email@example.com)
or Salvatore Frasca (firstname.lastname@example.com).
2. Mystic Aquarium
and Institute for Exploration - For over thirty years, Mystic
Aquarium & Institute for Exploration (MAIFE) has remained
one of the nation's most respected aquariums and leaders
in marine science research and education. MAIFE has made significant
contributions to marine mammal and environmental health related
research utilizing whales, seals, and sea lions in the collection
as well as investigations of wild populations. MAIFE's
research program is dedicated to broadening our understanding
of the health challenges impacting aquatic species worldwide.
For more information contact Dr. Tracy Romano (email@example.com).
3. NOAA, National Marine
Fisheries Service, NFSC, Milford Laboratories - The Milford
Laboratory houses the Aquaculture and Enhancement Division of
the Northeast Fisheries Science Center. Several laboratories
are devoted to the culture of microalgae in sufficient quantity
and with sufficient quality (bacteria-free) to conduct rigorous
feeding experiments with bivalve mollusks. A highly regarded
collection of about 250 pure cultures of different species or
strains of microalgae is maintained. The staff tests various
types of microalgae and schedules of feeding to determine the
best conditions for each type of shellfish, in addition to experimental
exposures of shellfish to suspected harmful algae. For more
information contact Dr. Gary Wikfors (firstname.lastname@example.com).
II. Participating Units and Institutions
In addition to the above institutions, the following departments
and institutions are adding valuable expertise to the I-RICH

Mia kateto estas tre bela!
Posted on Monday, January 19, 2009
I think I mentioned that my neighbor Judith and I rescued a feral cat and her litter of kittens from a local park this summer. I currently have two of these kittens as permanent members of our household. We found other homes for all of the other kittens with one exception. We kept trying to find a home for Murray, but Judith decided to make her November birthday the deadline. If Murray hadn't found a "forever home" by then, Judith would offer him a permanent position in her own home. As it turned out, at the end of that month Judith contacted all the local businesses that had put up signs on Murray's behalf. He was no longer available for adoption. He was Judith's cat now and forever.

•Lawmakers decry slow pace of Benin-Auchi highway
The Edo State House of Assembly yesterday called on the Federal Government to revoke the contract awarded for the reconstruction of the Benin-Ekpoma-Auchi road.
Speaker Adjoto Kabiru made the call at Ekpoma, Esan West Local Government Area while leading members on a 'protest inspection' of the road.
Kabiru decried the slow pace of work by the contracting firms.
He said the deplorable state of the road had hampered socio-economic development of the people as well as others plying the road.
"It is our view as an Assembly that the contract awarded to Dantata and Sawoe, Mother Cat and Reynolds Construction Company (RCC) should be revoked. Raji Fashola is a man that we respect. He is doing wonderfully well as a minister but on this Benin-Ekpoma-Auchi-Okpella road , there is need to revisit the performance of the contractors. They are not competent.
"We are dissatisfied with the Federal Controller of Works and we have resolved that the contractors can no longer deceive us.
"The present condition of the road was unacceptable to residents in the state who now travel through Ondo or Delta states to get to their destination.
"The protest on the road was to show solidarity and share in the pains experienced by travellers and motorists.
"Our oversight functions have doubled. We are now together as a team. It is unacceptable for Edo residents to travel through Ondo State when coming from Edo North.
"We are not satisfied with the pace of work and quality of jobs done. We are moving through that road. We know Edo people are suffering," the Speaker said.
He said the road was awarded to four contractors, to be completed in 36 months.
Kabiru alleged that the level of work done by the firms is below the huge funds released to them by the Federal Government.
He said the people and the Assembly were not satisfied with their performance.
Responding, Principal Resident Engineer in charge of Ekpoma road, Mr Ishaku Mamri, said he was not in a position to tell lawmakers reasons for the alleged delay.
He said Dantata and Sawoe construction firm was mobilised to the Ekpoma axis for palliative works to address traffic challenges on the road.
Also speaking, Project Site Supervisor for the firm, Malam Suleiman Nasiru, said the initial contract awarded to the firm was from Agbede in Etsako West to Ewu hill in Esan Central.
Nasiru added that the Ekpoma axis was recently awarded to the company to address the traffic challenges in the area.

When I first envisioned the character of Dmitrije Radan (de – MEE – tree ruh – DAN), I kept seeing Anthony Hopkins in my head. The good doctor was senior and slow, sidling up to Eliza's booth like a weary, old vaudeville vet. I needed him to be lonely and vulnerable, yet wise with a touch of inner power. Only Hopkins could do it, or so I was convinced.
As it turns out – and I've been saying this far more often than I care to admit – I was wrong. Chris completely rewired my thinking on Dr. Radan, and I didn't have to sacrifice those qualities that made the character and the story click. Kies can add hard miles with a slouch, and in the next moment bring the leading man with a squint. What's more, he's got the energy to keep up with Nicole. His commitment to the role makes me feel privileged, and there has been for some time now only one man who could do the job.

Project Description
The restoration and renovation of a Grade 2 listed manor house. Set in the heart of the Sussex countryside, the owners unsurprisingly fell in love with this ancient property. The existing facilities were not only extremely dated but also hugely inefficient. Nutshell's brief was to maintain the historic integrity of the building but to combine it with uber-efficient standards of heating and insulation. To this end, a combination of photo-voltaics and ground source heat pumps provide a constant and practical environmental solution. Specialist re-roofing in the traditional Horsham slate meant the perfect opportunity to super-insulate the roof space. A new green oak kitchen designed and built as a sympathetic extension. The grounds were land-drained and comprehensively landscaped.

Article from the Selby Post, 07 June 2012.
Big push sees Sean make the magic 60
by Nick Towle
A disabled ex-serviceman covered 60 miles in his wheelchair to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
Sean Allerton (46) started a 500-mile wheelchair push three weeks ago to raise money for a number of military charities.
And, being an unashamed patriot, he was determined to reach the 60-mile mark in time for the Queen's 60th anniversary celebrations.
He reached his target a few days ago after doing umpteen laps of the RAF Church Fenton airstrip, and now just has the remaining 440 miles to contemplate in the months ahead!
"I was determined to get to 60 miles in time for the Jubilee because, as an ex-serviceman, I am patriotic," said the former RAF man. "Last Saturday I did 16 miles in one day, which took me to 34 miles.
"On Monday, I got to 60 miles and was really pleased with myself. I was a bit fatigued by the end of it all because I had low pressure on my tyres."
Sean, from Sherburn, has teamed up with former Queen's Dragoon guard Adam Douglas, from Leeds, in trying to complete 500 miles in a non-aided wheelchair journey.
Over the coming months the pair will pay weekly visits to RAF Church Fenton, where they will do several laps of the airfield at a time.
The charity challenge – in aid of six charities including the RAF Benevolent Fund, RAFA, the RAF Charitable Trust, Aerobility, Flying Scholarships for the Disabled and The Forgotten Heroes – was launched at the RAF base in May with a little help from Scottish singing twins The Proclaimers, whose song 'I would walk 500 miles was a smash hit in 1988.
Sean and Adam will be emulating the iconic Proclaimers' famous song by completing 500 miles on their wheelchairs.
The Proclaimers – Craig and Charlie Reid – are patrons of The Forgotten Heroes. They were at RAF Church Fenton to see off Sean and Adam at the start of their epic journey and add a little stardust to the momentous challenge, which they have called Push 500.
Sean (46) was paralysed in a road accident while serving with 34 Squadron RAF Regiment in Cyprus in 1993, which left him tetraplegic.

Tesla very recently introduced to the world to their new Electric semi truck, and the world was suitably impressed. Tesla has managed to develop a truck that can travel 800 km on a single charge, can accelerate from 0 to 100 km an hour with a full 35 tonne load in 20 seconds, and can ascend a 5% hill with the same load at 110 km/hr.
These power statistics a very impressive and headline-grabbing, but more importantly for the trucking industry is the cost savings that come from an electric truck. Cost savings originate from two areas, the very low cost of electricity compared to diesel, and the very long lifetime of the electric drivetrain, which is warrantie by Tesla or 1.6 million km.
The electric truck operating in a hilly environment or a stop go built up environment has a major advantage over diesel trucks in that around 98% or the energy that it's built up at speed can be recovered if it needs to stop or slow down. An electric truck that are sends and then descends a large hill can recover almost all of its energy used in the ascent, and the brake pads remain unused. Tesla also has the technology to allow one lead truck in a convoy to be followed by a number of other trucks that are driverless, and this will not only cut out the cost of the drivers but also cut fuel consumption dramatically for the following vehicles. The end result is that electric trucks in convoy can transport goods at less than 50% of the cost for diesel truck.
The onging regular cost of engine maintenance is significant for diesel trucks, but in Tesla's electric truck this cost disappears. The truck is powered by 4 independent electric motors that are identical to the electric motors in the Tesla Model 3, and these motors have only 2 or 3 moving parts and essentially can last for millions of miles. Tesla has also removed another large maintenance cost by using a patented hardened windscreen which can survive any stones without even a mark, as compared to normal windscreens which always have to be replaced. Across a large trucking fleet the average time between replacements per vehicle is around 1 month, and the cost of this is significant not only in the replacement cost but also in the time the truck is out of action.
Trucking companies are already placing multiple orders for the trucks, even though they will not arrive until 2020. A firm in Canada that transports heavy machinery into the bush intends to strip off all of the aerodynamic fairings on the trucks to make it easier to put snow chains on wheels, but they intend to use the truck in all situations including moving very heavy equipment and machinery. The four independent rear wheels will allow the truck to move up steep rough roads much faster and safer than diesel equivalents.
Trucking firms in Europe are also extremely excited, because the truck purchase will see pay back in around 7 months as compared to existing diesel trucks and is an absolute no-brainer for most applications for heavy trucking.
