BMW to Start Shipping i8's by 2014 at $135,700 US - Double Clutch362 Hp and 420 lb-ft of tourque. 0-62 MPH in 4.4 seconds. 94 MPG. What can the new BMW i8 not do?
It's out – BMW's uber cool new sports car. Gorgeous styling. 362 Hp and 420 lb-ft of tourque. 0-62 MPH in 4.4 seconds. 94 MPG. Wait- WHAT?
Yea, you read it right.
94 Miles Per Gallon. That's what you can do with BWM's new i8 (formerly concept vehicle and Tom Cruise's car of choice in Mission Impossible) hybrid sports coupe, to be released next year.
The production i8 as reaveled at the 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show.
The i8 will be released to our neighbours in the south at just $135,700 US. A rather reasonable number considering the performance, technology and make of the car. The radically styled coupe will come with a TwinPower Turbo, 3-cylinder, 1.5 liter engine producing 231 horsepower, powering the rear wheels. Meanwhile the front wheels will be driven by a 96 kilowatt electric motor putting out 131 horsepower. In essence, this vehicle will harness the power of 362 horses, all while saving the polar bears and the ice-caps.
The design of the car is almost unchanged from the concept and arguably quite good looking! There are several styling cues taken from the concept which highlight the hybrid/electric nature of the car, namely the blue aura in the kidney grills and the front fascia. The i8 has a very slick design and features embedded side-spoiler on both sides of the car which look fantastic!
The i8's design encorporates the spoilers into it's side panels.

Green Mountain Bike Update 2009
John Atkinson
Posted May 11th, 2009
If you're like me, you probably have some sort of miles logged on your bike already, and are looking forward to the upcoming mountain bike season. The Vermont Mountain Bike Association (VMBA) has been busy getting ready for Summer 2009, and there is much to tell.
Vermont State Lands
The biggest news is the creation of a Vermont Ride Center in Stowe and Waterbury, and the first step is the connection of Little River State Park in Waterbury and Cotton Brook in Stowe. A Ride Center is an International Mountain Bike Association creation, and there are only five others in the country. The objective is to create pods of trail networks that can be connected together and that offer a wide variety of riding experiences for the destination mountain biker.
VMBA and its Stowe chapter, the Stowe Mountain Bike Club, are working together on developing the Vermont Ride Center, and the most significant progress towards that goal is the opening of the approximately two-mile connector trail between Little River State Park in Waterbury and Cotton Brook in Stowe. Two miles may seem short, but this piece is both locally important and symbolic of a much greater development. Vermont–Forests, Parks and Recreation (VT-FPR) is considering six miles of trail in Little River State Park and eight miles in Cotton Brook. There is also the potential for reawakening the Honey Hollow area in Duxbury and Huntington, with a possible route through to Fayston's Phen Basin.
VMBA executive director Patrick Kell is leading the effort because this project has links to several networks and chapters, including the Stowe Mountain Bike Club in Lamoille County, the Mad River Riders in Washington County, and the Fellowship of the Wheel in Chittenden County. Work will be shared by the chapters and once completed and approved, the trail will be open to use and two parks will be reunited with a multi-use path.
Imagine starting in Stowe and riding to Warren, mainly on trails. Or picture descending from high atop Sugarbush or from Trapp's alpine meadows and ending at nearly sea level on Lake Champlain. These truly epic linkages and loops over and through the Green Mountains are no longer faraway dreams. Vermont is truly becoming a mountain bike-friendly state.
Want more evidence of this, uh, shift?
VMBA's STAB chapter is working on plans for Ascutney State Park, and the Rutland chapter is proposing trails in Bomoseen State Park. In addition, one of the finest and most heavily ridden trails in the state is getting upgraded this summer, with support from a $10,000 trail maintenance grant from VT-FPR. The Burning Spear trail, in Waterbury's CC Putnam State Forest, will see a massive armoring effort to reduce on-going maintenance work and protect against erosion and traffic challenges. "We want to fix the persistent issues and maintain the black diamond challenge, to make it the best downhill bike trail in the state," says Kell.
Green Mountain National Forest
Access in the Green Mountain National Forest continues to improve, with the Middlebury chapter leading the way this season. Both the Oak Ridge and Chandler Ridge trails in the Moosalamoo area are being opened to bikes, after work is accomplished this spring and summer. They've got $35,000 in grant support for the work, with $26,000 from the National Forest Fund and $9,000 from Bikes Belong. Kell says, "The Chandler Ridge and Oak Ridge trails are 10 miles of the nicest backcountry biking I've seen in Vermont. It's just beautiful."
The IMBA Trail Care crew will also be visiting Moosalamoo later this summer for a trail building seminar at Blueberry Hill. Check www.imba.com or www.vmba.org for more details on the conference.
The Pittsfield chapter is working on getting trails opened in the Michigan Brook area of the National Forest. These trails have already been designated as bike routes, pending necessary maintenance and upgrades. Look for more word on when this network is cleared to ride.
And Beyond
With so much momentum, new chapters keep springing up, too, most recently in Putney, Northfield, and Mount Snow. Existing chapters also have many significant projects on town and private lands—way too numerous to cover in a single column.
Next on the spring calendar is the VMBA Bike Conference May 7-8 at the Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe, put on by Gravity Logic, the guys behind Whistler's incredible bike park successes. And to kick the riding season off right, VMBA is hosting its second annual bike movie festival on May 16, at 6 and 9 p.m. New World Disorder 09 will be the feature presentation at the Main Street Landing Performing Arts Center on the Waterfront in
Please join and support your local VMBA chapter, commit to help with trail maintenance, and try to ride as often as possible. Green Mountain biking is finally coming into its own. Enjoy the fun with knowledge, responsibility, and respect.
See you at the trailhead!

17 November 2015
Over in the UK Former Big Brother presenter Iain Lee was fired from BBC Three Counties Radio following an on air altercation with a Christian group over its homophobia.
Lee was presenting his breakfast show on BBC Three last week when he spoke with Libby Powell, a campaigner for Christian Concern, who are currently supporting a fired prison staff member who claims he was forced from his job after prison staff and prisoners complained he was using scripture to justify homophobia.
In the interview with Powell, Lee questioned whether the campaigner believed homosexuality was a sin and asked whether she supported bigotry. Lee then read the bible passages aloud and suggested they were indeed homophobic, outdated and bigoted.
The discussion became quite heated, with Lee calling out the woman and her group for homophobic views.
Following the altercation and the usual backlash from right wing Christian bullies the BBC issued a hurried apology.
Iain Lee was also forced to apologise on air and said:
"Last week I interviewed the Revd Barry Trayhorn and solicitor Libby Powell about their understanding of biblical teaching on homosexuality. I want to make it clear that I apologise for any offence that may have been caused over the way I conducted the interviews."
On Sunday evening Lee signed off his Twitter account saying 'best radio show I ever did. Enjoy it. Off to Bed. Night. X
Fans have already started a change.org petition calling on the BBC to re-instate him.

It's Been HotI blame the hot weather for not letting me to do FOTD (Face Of The Day). On Tuesday New York City was hit with 103 Degrees setting a heat record. Luckily my husband told me and my daughter to stay home. I can't bare the hot weather anymore and wish we could just settle into fall time. Haven't been putting on a lot of make up, sometimes it's so hot I just skip make up.
Here's a quote from Winkipedia
"Coco had affairs with some of the most influential men of the time, but she never married. The reason may be found in her answer, when asked why she did not marry the Duke of Westminster: "There have been several Duchesses of Westminster. There is only one Chanel".She's an amazing woman and hopefully I can collect some of her luxury items in the long run.

Endothelial Cell Co-stimulation Through OX40 Augments and Prolongs T Cell Cytokine Synthesis by Stabilization of Cytokine MRNA International Immunology. Jun, 2005 | Pubmed ID: 15908450 Human endothelial cells (ECs) constitutively express OX40L and co-stimulate memory CD4(+) T cell proliferation that is dependent upon OX40-OX40L interaction. In vivo, OX40 prolongs T cell survival; however, an unanswered question is whether it can also prolong synthesis of proliferation-sustaining cytokines such as IL-2. Here we show that EC co-stimulation results in the secretion of T cell IL-2, IL-3 and IFN-gamma and that in the absence of OX40 signals synthesis largely ceases by 12-18 h, but is prolonged up to 60 h in the presence of OX40 signaling. Blocking OX40-mediated cytokine expression at later times suppresses T cell proliferation and this can be overcome by addition of exogenous IL-2. We find that OX40 signaling has discrete effects on T cell activation as it does not affect expression of IL-10, CD25, CD69 or soluble IL-2R. Also, OX40 does not appear to alter IL-2 transcription, but rather acts to stabilize a subset of cytokine mRNAs, increasing their half-lives by 3-6-fold. We further show that OX40L induces activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphotidyl-inositol-3-kinase (PI3K) in T cells, and using specific inhibitors, we find that increased mRNA half-life is dependent upon both these pathways but is independent of c-jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK). Thus, EC co-stimulation through OX40 leads to prolonged T cell cytokine synthesis and enhanced proliferation.
Matrix Metalloproteinase-7 Activation of Mouse Paneth Cell Pro-alpha-defensins: SER43 Down Arrow ILE44 Proteolysis Enables Membrane-disruptive Activity The Journal of Biological Chemistry. Sep, 2006 | Pubmed ID: 16822871 Small intestinal Paneth cells secrete alpha-defensin microbicidal peptides as mediators of innate enteric immunity. In mice, production of mature Paneth cell alpha-defensins, termed cryptdins (Crps), requires proteolytic activation of inactive precursors (pro-Crps) by the convertase matrix metalloproteinase-7. Proteolysis of mouse (pro-Crp4)(20-92) produces the specific cleavage intermediates pro-Crp4(44-92), pro-Crp4(54-92), and pro-Crp4(59-92). To identify which cleavage event enables bactericidal activity, recombinant pro-Crp4-processing intermediates were purified to homogeneity and assayed for bactericidal peptide activity. The in vitro bactericidal activities of pro-Crp4-processing intermediates were very similar to fully processed Crp4, contrasting the lack of bactericidal and membrane-disruptive activity shown by pro-Crp4(20-92). Thus, cleavage of pro-Crp4(20-92) at Ser(43) downward arrowIle(44) is sufficient to activate bactericidal activity, and amino acids in the pro-Crp4(20-43) of the proregion maintain the precursor in an inactive state. Because cationic Arg residues are determinants of Crp4 bactericidal peptide activity, we hypothesized that Asp and Glu residues in pro-Crp4(20-43) neutralize Crp4 Arg side chains in pro-Crp4(20-92). Therefore, a pro-Crp4(20-92) variant with Gly substitutions at all pro-Crp4(20-43) Asp and Glu positions ((DE/G)-pro-Crp4) was prepared, and it was bactericidal and lysed phospholipid vesicles under conditions where native pro-Crp4(20-92) lacks activity. These findings show that MMP-7 proteolysis of pro-Crp4(20-92) at Ser(43) downward arrowIle(44) converts inactive precursors to bactericidal forms by removal of covalently associated, inhibitory acidic amino acids from proximity with the Crp4 component of the molecule.
Wnt Signaling Induces Matrix Metalloproteinase Expression and Regulates T Cell Transmigration Immunity. Feb, 2007 | Pubmed ID: 17306568 Wnts are a family of secreted glycoproteins with diverse developmental roles, including regulation of cell migration; however, little is known about wnt signaling in mature T cells. We find that endothelial-cell-derived wnts, acting through Frizzled receptors, induce matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 2 and MMP9 expression in effector T cells. Blocking wnt signaling, or MMP activity, reduces T cell migration through the basement membrane in vitro and into inflamed skin in vivo. Wnt signaling stabilizes beta-catenin protein in T cells and directly targets the MMP promoters through tandem TCF sites. Thus, our data support a necessary and previously unexpected role for wnt signaling in T cell extravasation.
Integration of the Beta-catenin-dependent Wnt Pathway with Integrin Signaling Through the Adaptor Molecule Grb2 PloS One. 2009 | Pubmed ID: 19924227 THE COMPLEXITY OF WNT SIGNALING LIKELY STEMS FROM TWO SOURCES: multiple pathways emanating from frizzled receptors in response to wnt binding, and modulation of those pathways and target gene responsiveness by context-dependent signals downstream of growth factor and matrix receptors. Both rac1 and c-jun have recently been implicated in wnt signaling, however their upstream activators have not been identified.
Innate Pathways to B-cell Activation and Tolerance Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. Jan, 2010 | Pubmed ID: 20146708 B cells represent an important link between the adaptive and innate immune systems as they express both antigen-specific B-cell receptors (BCRs) as well as various Toll-like receptors (TLRs). Several checkpoints in B-cell development ensure that self-specific cells are eliminated from the mature B-cell repertoire to avoid harmful autoreactive responses. These checkpoints are controlled by BCR-mediated events but are also influenced by TLR-dependent signals from the innate immune system. Additionally, B-cell-intrinsic and extrinsic TLR signaling are critical for inflammatory events required for the clearance of microbial infections. Factors secreted by TLR-activated macrophages or dendritic cells directly influence the fate of protective and autoreactive B cells. Additionally, naive and memory B cells respond differentially to TLR ligands, as do different B-cell subsets. We review here recent literature describing intrinsic and extrinsic effects of TLR stimulation on the fate of B cells, with particular attention to autoimmune diseases.
Ifih1 Gene Dose Effect Reveals MDA5-Mediated Chronic Type I IFN Gene Signature, Viral Resistance, and Accelerated Autoimmunity Journal of Immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950). Feb, 2012 | Pubmed ID: 22205024 Type I IFNs (IFN-I) are normally produced during antiviral responses, yet high levels of chronic IFN-I expression correlate with autoimmune disease. A variety of viral sensors generate IFN-I in their response, but other than TLRs, it is not fully known which pathways are directly involved in the development of spontaneous immune pathologies. To further explore the link between IFN-I induced by viral pathways and autoimmunity, we generated a new transgenic mouse line containing multiple copies of Ifih1, a gene encoding the cytoplasmic dsRNA sensor MDA5 with proven linkage to diabetes and lupus. We show that MDA5 overexpression led to a chronic IFN-I state characterized by resistance to a lethal viral infection through rapid clearance of virus in the absence of a CD8(+) or Ab response. Spontaneous MDA5 activation was not sufficient to initiate autoimmune or inflammatory pathology by itself, even though every immune cell population had signs of IFN activation. When combined with the lupus-susceptible background of the FcγR2B deficiency, MDA5 overexpression did accelerate the production of switched autoantibodies, the incidence of glomerulonephritis, and early lethality. Thus, MDA5 transgenic mice provide evidence that chronic elevated levels of IFN-I are not sufficient to initiate autoimmunity or inflammation although they might exacerbate an ongoing autoimmune pathology.
Spontaneous Activation of RNA-sensing Pathways in Autoimmune Disease Current Opinion in Immunology. Dec, 2013 | Pubmed ID: 24455767 Multiple intracellular RNA sensing innate immune pathways have been linked to autoimmune disease. RNA-related ligands taken up by the endocytic pathway activate TLRs, and affect primarily immune cells. This type of activation is enhanced by nucleic acid-specific antibodies and induces an inflammatory program. In contrast, spontaneous activation of cytoplasmic RNA sensing pathways targets mostly non-hematopoietic tissues and their effect on autoimmune disease is secondary to the release of interferon in the circulation. The fact that pathologies result from spontaneous activation of innate pathways implies that endogenous RNA ligands that might be sensed as pathogenic are commonly found in both immune and non-immune cells.
Strain-specific Innate Immune Signaling Pathways Determine Malaria Parasitemia Dynamics and Host Mortality Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. Jan, 2014 | Pubmed ID: 24474800 Malaria infection triggers vigorous host immune responses; however, the parasite ligands, host receptors, and the signaling pathways responsible for these reactions remain unknown or controversial. Malaria parasites primarily reside within RBCs, thereby hiding themselves from direct contact and recognition by host immune cells. Host responses to malaria infection are very different from those elicited by bacterial and viral infections and the host receptors recognizing parasite ligands have been elusive. Here we investigated mouse genome-wide transcriptional responses to infections with two strains of Plasmodium yoelii (N67 and N67C) and discovered differences in innate response pathways corresponding to strain-specific disease phenotypes. Using in vitro RNAi-based gene knockdown and KO mice, we demonstrated that a strong type I IFN (IFN-I) response triggered by RNA polymerase III and melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5, not Toll-like receptors (TLRs), binding of parasite DNA/RNA contributed to a decline of parasitemia in N67-infected mice. We showed that conventional dendritic cells were the major sources of early IFN-I, and that surface expression of phosphatidylserine on infected RBCs might promote their phagocytic uptake, leading to the release of parasite ligands and the IFN-I response in N67 infection. In contrast, an elevated inflammatory response mediated by CD14/TLR and p38 signaling played a role in disease severity and early host death in N67C-infected mice. In addition to identifying cytosolic DNA/RNA sensors and signaling pathways previously unrecognized in malaria infection, our study demonstrates the importance of parasite genetic backgrounds in malaria pathology and provides important information for studying human malaria pathogenesis.
Linking Susceptibility Genes and Pathogenesis Mechanisms Using Mouse Models of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Models & Mechanisms. Sep, 2014 | Pubmed ID: 25147296 Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) represents a challenging autoimmune disease from a clinical perspective because of its varied forms of presentation. Although broad-spectrum steroids remain the standard treatment for SLE, they have many side effects and only provide temporary relief from the symptoms of the disease. Thus, gaining a deeper understanding of the genetic traits and biological pathways that confer susceptibility to SLE will help in the design of more targeted and effective therapeutics. Both human genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and investigations using a variety of mouse models of SLE have been valuable for the identification of the genes and pathways involved in pathogenesis. In this Review, we link human susceptibility genes for SLE with biological pathways characterized in mouse models of lupus, and discuss how the mechanistic insights gained could advance drug discovery for the disease.

FRIDE Homepage Last publications from FRIDE http://www.fride.org 2018-08-20T13:19:16+01:00 text/html 2018-08-20T11:19:16+01:00 http://www.fride.org Kristina Kausch Tunisia's Libya problem http://fride.org/publicacion/1285/tunisia's-libya-problem
In the face of rampant chaos across the Arab world, the international community – mistakenly – likes to view Tunisia as a box checked. Many regional factors are affecting Tunisia's transition. Some of the most immediate security spill-over, however, stems from instability in Libya. Permeable borders, militia rule, tribal divisions, contraband and war economy, the post-Ghaddafi arms bazaar, and Libya's development into North Africa's hub for the Islamic State/Daesh are raising many questions for Tunisian security. Following each of the three major terrorist attacks this year – on 18 March, 26 June and 24 November, respectively – Tunisian commentators were quick to establish the link to training camps and other influences in Libya. Libyans, at the same time, reject being held responsible for Tunisia's security shortcomings. In economic terms, Tunisia is under further strain as the economy of Libya, a major Tunisian trade partner, has collapsed and Libyan migrants flood the country. How much of Tunisia's ills can really be ascribed to spill over from Libya? Does the Libyan conflict put Tunisia's transition at risk?

Over the past year, the Middle East has witnessed the burgeoning of a new conflict dyad: the Islamic Republic of Iran versus Daesh. Iran's campaign against Daesh is a means of strengthening its strategic position in the Middle East. Tehran aims to weaken rather than destroy Daesh because this allows it to defend its allies in government in Syria and Iraq while retaining leverage over them. Iran's actions and the limited battlefield successes of its allied-militias pose a major policy conundrum for the international coalition against Daesh.

South Korea is pursuing middle power diplomacy in an increasingly difficult regional context, marked by tensions between China and the US. The key factor shaping South Korea's identity as a middle power is its relationship with its most important ally, the United States. Over the past decade, South Korea's middle power diplomacy has evolved, as its focus shifted from regional to global issues. However, global engagement and regional focus cannot be an alternative in South Korea's foreign policy. The challenge for South Korea is to help shape a stable regional architecture while seeking a proactive role in multilateral frameworks.

Salafi ideology and activism are once again emerging as the locus of societal contention and political controversy in Algeria. 'Quietist' Salafists who abstain from politics have traditionally been prevalent in the country but new 'firebrand' preachers have grown more assertive. The state has taken an ambivalent approach to the surge of Salafism but is now adopting some measures to marginalise the radical Salafi discourse. However, countering religious extremism ultimately requires addressing the root causes of militancy - persistent political paralysis and lack of opportunity.

Oman's priority is to ensure a peaceful regional environment that does not threaten its domestic stability. For this purpose it has had to strike a delicate balance between the region's two antagonistic powers, Iran and Saudi Arabia, and has sometimes pursued policies at odds with Gulf consensus. But Sultan Qaboos' studied neutrality might be difficult to maintain in the face of a changing regional context.

Two major terrorist attacks earlier this year, on Sousse beach and the Bardo museum in Tunis, show that Tunisia's process of democratisation has been flanked by a growth in the influence of jihadist groups. Ansar al-Sharia Tunisia (AST) was the biggest and most influential Jihadi-Salafi group following the 2011 revolution, but has been driven underground by a government crackdown since 2013. However, AST's demise may now encourage more Tunisian youths to align with Islamic State. Furthermore, the rise and fall of AST shows the need to balance short term counter-terrorism measures with longer-term youth-focused policies.

The countries of the South Caucasus have very different interdependent relations with the European Union (EU), Russia, Turkey, the United States (US) and Iran. Tensions between the EU-US and Russia over Ukraine are further entrenching these interdependent relations and hampering development in the South Caucasus. How can Brussels increase its engagement in this important region in order to reduce Russian dominance and bolster security and democracy?

Australia, long condemned to the ´tyranny of distance´, now faces the ´peril of proximity´. This is because of increasing uncertainty about the stability of Asian security. As a democratic free-trading middle power, Australia's main concern is the preservation of the globalised international order. Australian policy makers, however, are unsure of the right course in Asia, whether to focus on developing multilateral institutions or to bolster links with like-minded countries such as India, Japan and the United States. As a result, Canberra is likely to be reactive and supportive of others' initiatives in Asia, rather than revitalise its past role as a 'norm entrepreneur'.

The current wave of instability and conflict affecting their neighbours to the South and East has been a key issue on the Spanish and European agendas during the second quarter of 2015. In particular, the tragedy in the Mediterranean Sea that unfolded in April has returned the controversial issue of migration to the forefront of debate, both at a European and a national level. On the other hand, Spain has actively contributed to discussions in the United Nations Security Council just a few months before it assumes the monthly presidency of the organisation in October. Finally, economic diplomacy remains a central plank of Spanish foreign policy activity.

Remitly Nabs $12.5 Million in Series B Round
March 23, 2015
Late last week, global remittance provider Remitly raised $12.5 million in Series B funding. The company said it will use the cash to hire new talent, increase marketing outreach and expand the service into new countries. The company currently enables transfers to the Philippines and India. The most recent funding round was led by DFJ with participation from DN Capital and several existing investors.
Remitly is built around digital delivery of remittances and intends to disrupt the legacy system by leveraging the mobile channel to offer cheaper fees and a better overall customer experience.
"While living in Africa, I saw firsthand the many barriers people faced when sending money to friends, family and businesses. It was incredibly difficult, expensive and the process was arduous and slow. We started Remitly because we knew we could change that," said Remitly CEO Matt Oppenheimer. "Remittance is a $125 billion opportunity in the U.S. and $500 billion globally. We have earned the trust of tens of thousands of people by transferring their hard-earned wages back to the people they care most about. And we're just getting started."

Torrent description
Each winter, alone in the pitiless ice deserts of Antarctica, deep in the most inhospitable terrain on Earth, a truly remarkable journey takes place as it has done for millennia. Emperor penguins in their thousands abandon the deep blue security of their ocean home and clamber onto the frozen ice to begin their long journey into a region so bleak, so extreme, it supports no other wildlife at this time of year. In single file, the penguins march blinded by blizzards, buffeted by gale force winds. Guided by instinct, by the otherworldly radiance of the Southern Cross, they head unerringly for their traditional breeding ground where--after a ritual courtship of intricate dances and delicate maneuvering, accompanied by a cacophony of ecstatic song--they will pair off into monogamous couples and mate. The females remain long enough only to lay a single egg. Once this is accomplished, exhausted by weeks without nourishment, they begin their return journey across the ice-field to the fish-filled seas. The male emperors are left behind to guard and hatch the precious eggs, which they cradle at all times on top of their feet. After two long months during which the males eat nothing, the eggs begin to hatch. Once they have emerged into their ghostly white new world, the chicks can not survive for long on their fathers' limited food reserves. If their mothers are late returning from the ocean with food, the newly-hatched young will die. Once the families are reunited, the roles reverse, the mothers remaining with their new young while their mates head, exhausted and starved, for the sea, and food. While the adults fish, the chicks face the ever-present threat of attack by prowling giant petrels. As the weather grows warmer and the ice floes finally begin to crack and melt, the adults will repeat their arduous journey countless times, marching many hundreds of miles over some of the most treacherous territory on Earth, until the chicks are ready to take their first faltering dive into the deep blue waters of the Antarctic

We are recruiting. A fully flexible direct sales representative job - earn up to a �1000 per week
We are a growing business which specialises in contemporary furniture for babies, kids and youngsters. We are recruiting for direct sales representatives who will be responsible for generating leads, following up on prospects, applying sales techniques and closing sales.
No formal education is required but some of the essential skills for this role include the ability to sell, persuasion, self-motivation, enthusiasm, and perseverance.
The work is COMPLETELY flexible in terms of hours and days. You can work anywhere and anytime. Your primary job will be to boost sales on several mediums, for example, social media, direct sales at play stations, child care groups, primary/secondary schools, leaflet distribution at key anchor points, and many others.
Pay is commission based only with a mouth-watering percentage ? 10% of sales (yes, you heard it right, sales and not profit). For instance, a typical 3 piece set furniture is approximately �1,500, and you will earn yourself �150 upon closing sales. You could potentially earn up to a �1000 a week by selling one furniture set per day. The more sales - the more money you get!
Our products are unique and not sold anywhere in the UK, hence no competition, and with additional incentives for our customers, with a bit of effort, it shouldn't be too difficult to close a sale.
If you think you are ideally suited for the position, we'd love to hear from you. Kindly send your CV to email@example.com, or contact me on 0771 261 1146.
Thank you.

I love saying "I told you so." Or, more accurately, I love being in the smug position of being able to say those words, even if I don't actually say them. This has to do with a situation at work and only us dorky lawyers who specialize in mutual fund matters would be remotely interested in the details so I won't bore you all to death with them.
Suffice it to say that my (bad) habit of never deleting emails unless I have to has served me well today. I found the smoking gun - a Powerpoint presentation that was sent to someone in April. The other day, while this someone was firmly planted in the saddle of his high horse, he claimed that we hadn't told him that a particular transaction was due to settle in July. He said we told him it would settle "later in the year" (something that was never uttered from my lips).
This someone is from a very big, very important client of ours so he needs to always be right. So I can't say the words I long to say. I will get to forward him the "smoking gun" email that he received in April and I will get to say something like "just wanted to point out that the information was in this presentation that you received . . ." and I will do it as a response to his "high horse" email where he said it was all our fault because we didn't tell them. I have to be nice though, which kinda sucks, but at least I can rub it in, just a little.

Oh boy, I can just see that smile on your face as your pressing the -send- key. How utterly delightful!
And how tactful that you keep some of those -I told you so's- to yourself. I could probably learn a thing or two from that approach . . .

Whatever type of wardrobe you get, and other bedroom furniture, you will want to make sure that you have done your measurements properly and thoroughly. There is nothing worse than getting furniture that is larger than can be comfortably accommodated in your bedroom. So make sure that you measure everything fully to ensure that you can put your furniture in and utilize it without feeling like you have been cramped into a tight space, or constantly needing to shift other pieces of furniture and equipment in your bedroom to access a single piece of furniture.
The bed is the most important piece of furniture in any bedroom. In a master bedroom, the size of the bed is the ruling factor. Typically, a master bedroom is adorned with a large bed such as a queen- or king-size bed. Beds are available in different shapes, styles, and materials to suit varying needs.

The Beginning
*Photo Credit: Jim Walker @ Surfdog Photography
I blame it on my Dad. He put a camera loaded with film in the hands of my sister and I when we were teenagers and set us free. There are three things I remember:
I also remember taking a photography class in high school put on by Mr. Goetz and thinking the exposure triangle was a ploy to torture us. But I have grown and spent many years away from the camera as I focused on my career in the corporate world just to find myself more in love with photography now than ever as I now have time to focus on my passion.
With every shot I take and every tutorial I watch I find myself growing into the photographer I want to be. I hope as my career in photography flourishes I can continue to write blog entries about certain photos that captured me and provide insight on the image, the camera settings and hopefully share some of my knowledge with those that love it as much as I do.

Oy Windside Production Ltd
Windside is an especially high quality vertical wind turbine, born in 1979, which is suitable both for professional use in very demanding weather conditions and for e. g. freetime house use. The silent and safe Windside wind rotor is rotated by two spiral-formed vanes, and according to numerous tests, its efficiency per swept area in inland circumstances exceeds that of horizontal shafted propeller types by 50 per cent. Its superiority is most obvious at low wind speeds from 1 to 5 m/s, also from 20 to 80 m/s and there is no need to stop it or to reduce energy output during storms and hurricanes. Turbulence and changes in wind direction do not in any way harm its performance, and it keeps itself free of ice when rotating. Installations. . ....

Foreword: This page is to be devoted to the documentation of low threat anomalous locations which have been discovered by the SCP Foundation over the years. Although all locations listed in this document warrant securing and cover-up measures, none of them are closely enough tied to an underlying anomalous cause or considered a high enough containment or research priority to warrant full Special Containment Procedure documentation. This list may be used as a resource should knowledge of these locations become useful or necessary in the future.
– Doctor ██████ █████, Head of Containment, Site ██

Sort: top rated, lowest rated, oldest, newest, random
Unexplained Location UE-811776 (edit)
Location Description: A standard sized wooden dog kennel, containing a small dog blanket inside. Within the kennel resides an incorporeal entity, that appears to be roughly a canine. It behaves in a manner similar to that of the domestic canine.
Date of Containment: 2011-08-27
Location: Houston, Texas, USA
Security Protocol: An infrared camera was installed inside of the structure to track the behavior of the entity inside. Researchers are to report to the location daily to play with it to keep it cooperative.
Unexplained Location UE-349744 (edit)
Location Description: Pedestrian crossing on █████ Street, a high-traffic road adjacent to █████ █████ Primary School. Anomaly is observed when crossing the road at the location and looking eastward.
If a car is approaching, an indistinct humanoid figure manifests approximately 300 meters from the location. The figure runs onto the road in front of the car's headlights and reacts as if about to be run over, then disappears upon impact. Drivers do not see or react to the figure.
Anomaly generally reported in low-light conditions (early morning, twilight, rainy weather, etc.). Exact frequency of occurrence is unknown. The highest number of sightings in a day is ███ on 1999-██-██, when █████ █████ students left the school grounds en masse to investigate rumours of a 'ghost'. Resulting disruption to school activities and traffic incidents brought the location to the Foundation's attention.
Date of Containment: 2000-██-██
Location: Perth, Australia
Security Protocol: Pedestrian crossing moved ███ meters from prior location under cover story of road improvements. Students and staff given counseling, medical attention and Class-B amnestics where necessary; drivers compensated for damage. No further sightings reported.
Unexplained Location UE-315520 (edit)
Location Description: An elevator affixed to the ice with a placard above the doors that bear the words, "Department of Abnormalities". The doors themselves appear to have been welded shut and the button panel has been altered to no longer function.
Date of Containment: 2019-██-██
Location: Antarctica
Security Protocol: Area cordoned off and kept under constant surveillance.
Unexplained Location UE-139584 (edit)
Location Description: A 424,074 km² area encompassing the entirety of the state of California as well as the town of ██████████, New Jersey in which calling the phone number "867-5309" will result in cardiac arrest exactly 7 days later. This anomaly is not known to have occurred at any time earlier than █████ ██th, 1997.
Date of Containment: 1997-██-██
Location: California and ██████████, New Jersey
Security Protocol: Memetic agents have been placed within local media outlets (newspapers, radio stations, billboards, etc.) which strongly dissuade anyone from activating the anomalous effects. Foundation agents placed within phone companies are currently attempting to make calling this number impossible.

On 17 February the last remaining centre for the treatment and documentation of alleged torture victims in Egypt was ordered to close by the Egyptian authorities. The reason given was that the Nadeem Center for the Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence and Torture had 'breached unspecified health ministry regulations'. But critics say that the order is part of a sweeping crackdown on human rights organisations and defenders in the country.
At a news conference, the Nadeem Center's director Aida Seif el-Dawla called the decision to close the centre politically motivated.
"This is a political decision and it's coming from the cabinet that represents all the actors that are keen on the survival of this regime, despite the oppression and the torture that the Egyptian people are living through on a daily basis."
The regime that Aida Seif el-Dawla is referring to is that of President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi. Since al-Sisi took office in June 2014, repression and shrinking of the public space has only increased, targeting the entire spectrum of human rights organisations, professional and labour associations, political activists, journalists and media.
In its 2016 World Report, Human Rights Watch (HRW) said that authorities have effectively banned protests and imprisoned tens of thousands—often after unfair trials. According to the report, National Security officers commit torture and enforced disappearances, while many detainees die in custody from mistreatment.
Despite the constitution forbidding torture and the abuse of detainees, the practice is widespread in Egyptian prisons. In 2014 British newspaper The Guardian revealed that since July 2013, at least 400 people had been tortured and held outside of judicial oversight in a secret military prison.
The Nadeem Center is a private, politically independent organisation that is known around the world for speaking out against torture and other human rights violations. It is the centre's work to document torture in particular that the authorities see as a great threat to the survival of the regime. Just last December the centre and other civil society organisations announced they were able to document 625 torture cases in Egyptian prisons. Allegations that the authorities continue to deny.
Meanwhile, international rights organisations, including the International Rehabilitation Council for Torture Victims (IRCT) have come out in support of the Nadeem Center and Aida Seif el-Dawla.
The IRCT, which has a membership of more than 150 torture rehabilitation centres across the world, including the Nadeem Center, released a statement calling for action and intervention.
"The Egyptian authorities have a duty to protect and promote the work of human rights defenders; any state hoping to be regarded as democratic must abide by the rule of law and respect for human rights. We will continue to be concerned with this situation until it is fully solved," said Victor Madrigal-Borloz, the Secretary-General of the IRCT.
In the statement, the IRCT also emphasised the importance of the centre being able to provide treatment to victims of torture, warning that without it, torture victims would have nowhere to go.
Other organisations are pointing to the fact that the closure of El Nadeem Center would constitute an unprecedented violation of the right to freedoms of association and of expression, as well as a dramatic threat to civil liberties, with thousands of political prisoners behind bars, all virtually threatened with systematised acts of torture. Despite the pressure, the Egyptian authorities have showed no signs of budging.
Yet the Nadeem Center refuses to give up, saying that, "If both the clinic and the centre are closed, we shall continue to release our reports and we shall continue to help victims of violence and torture as long as we are doctors and as long as this state insists to use torture as a means of oppressing its citizens."

So, I have been home from my amazing trip since Tuesday night, but just getting my head back into the local space. Started back at work on Thursday and have also been trying to readjust to the timezone.
I will update all about it over the next few days. I wrote in a journal for some of my time, so I will be able to just type it out although some aspects of the trip are so personal that I am not sure I will be able to share them.
Overall the trip was amazing, but it just goes by in such a blur. There were certainly some highlights and some lowpoints (being sick when leaving was one of them).
Once again many thanks to both Eatme and Bariatric Advantage for making it happen.

We love to try new things to eat in our home. I'm usually the one who cooks the fancier meals in our home because it has been anonymously decided that I'm the better cook in our home. I have been getting these whole chickens from the grocery store because they are cheaper to get to feed our family of five. I typically cook them a different way than this, but Crystal requested that I make these two with brown sugar and pineapple.
I decided to go ahead and try it and it turned out completely delicious. As a result, I'm eager to share with you this new recipe that will be one I'm confident you'll want to add to your menu plans often. These two simple sweet pineapple whole chickens lasted us through two meals with homemade mashed potatoes, rolls, and vegetables.
[clickToTweet tweet="This Simple Sweet Pineapple Whole Chicken Recipe is ideal for young and old alike. " quote="This Simple Sweet Pineapple Whole Chicken Recipe is ideal for young and old alike. #recipe #onthetable" theme="style6″]
I hope your family likes this Simple Sweet Pineapple Whole Chicken Recipe as much as ours does. It has quickly become a family favorite. It's nice knowing that I can feed all of my family young and old alike with a meal that they all savor.
Please note: If you don't have a roasting pan, you can cook this in your slow cooker/crockpot as well.
What is your favorite whole chicken recipe?
