Anil Shrestha, owner of Tas Spice in North Hobart and for seven years, manager of Annapurna, opened Katmandu Cuisine a month ago where Gondwana, Piccalilly and the Battery Point Steak House used to be.
As we've all seen, there's been a veritable explosion of Indian eateries in the city over the past few years. But this is Hobart's first ever restaurant to be inspired by the foods and flavours of Nepal and Tibet and, while there are similarities, Shrestha says Nepalese spicing is much more subtle, milder and delicate than in India, particularly in the food typical of the southern part of the sub-continent. "Where the Indians cook with ghee, we mostly use oil", he says. "Nor do we use as much cream, cheese, tomatoes and sugar in our cooking. And we compensate for the hot spiciness of Indian vindaloos, for example, with our pickles and chutneys".
But, understandably given Nepal's location, the restaurant's menu features cross-over and derivative dishes inspired by the paneers of northern India, Chinese-like noodles and chow mien and momos, meat and vegetable dumplings brought to the country with the influx of Tibetan refugees in the '60s and now Nepal's most popular street food and one of the restaurant's specialties. At a loss navigating my way through the menu's list of 62 different savoury dishes, I simply asked Shrestha to bring us a selection of those that his young Gurkha-trained chef, Rasham Ial Sapkola, considered would make up the most authentic Nepalese meal.
We started with assorted momo accompanied by a dip of mild sesame chutney, the vegetable momo with interesting, slightly fermented flavours, followed by a meal-in-itself beef thukpa, a deliciously rich and deeply flavoured beef broth with vegetables and thick noodles. Then came a silver platter with four bowls containing a thick, soupy dhal; steamed rice with, as is traditional in Nepal, a saucer of ghee to spoon over it; khasi ko masu – tender pieces of braised goat in a thick, beautifully spiced curry sauce; and kauli aloo – a light, mild and dry curry of cauliflower and potato.
The accompaniments were a small bowl of potato, cucumber and radish pickles and thick, sweet/sour yoghurt with cucumber and apple. Both were appetisingly sharp and cleansing and would be must-order sides to whatever else I might have on my next visit. When I later mentioned to Shrestha that the size of the menu was probably confusing to people who, like me, were trying Nepalese food for the first time, he said the kitchen was already working on a new, more concise and more traditional-Nepalese menu of dishes.
Having had a first taste, I look forward to trying more.

HOUGHTON, N.Y. (December 8, 2018) – A 31-point Houghton first quarter and a 37-point halftime deficit was how the SUNY Delhi women's basketball team began Saturday's matchup with the Highlanders. Along with the wide margin, the Broncos were also unable to keep up with their hosts' ability to shoot from the floor in an 89-44 defeat that sent Delhi to a 6-5 record.
Where Houghton finished 53.5 percent from the floor (38-for-71) and 7-of-16 from 3-point range, the Broncos connected on just 31.5 percent (17-for-54) and 0-for-9 from behind the arc. This included a first quarter where the Highlanders made 14-of-17 from the floor, including a 3-for-4 on threes, that saw the home team up, 31-11, after one period. Though the Broncos defense slowed down their opponents' scoring in the second quarter, four points by Kiera Holland was all Delhi's offense could produce as they trailed, 52-15, at halftime. By day's end, Houghton led by as much as 52 points and had nine bench players score for a 41-0 lead in bench points.
Samiaya Salley ranked second for the game with 17 points, while Sam Acuna scored 12 points. Diana Echols grabbed down a game-best 11 rebounds, along with three points. Holland and Camryn McDonald each totaled six points, with Holland also gathering five rebounds.
Head coach Courtney Hoyt's team will take a week off before returning for one more game prior to winter break at Green Mountain on Monday, Dec. 17 at 5:30 p.m.

Do Better Colleges Make Better Towns?
When Niche's data team developed our Best Towns in America ranking they quickly noticed that a lot of the Best Towns were also college towns. We were curious if "college towns" as a whole are outperforming non-college towns and if the quality of the college in that town impacts that town's quality of life. For the purposes of this study, we defined a college town as a town with at least one traditional college where the full time undergraduate population is at least 20% of the town's population.
We started by looking at the overall score distribution for college towns and non-college towns from our Best Towns ranking calculation. Our overall scores are based on livability factors like safety, schools, jobs and housing. Higher town scores indicate a higher quality of life for the town's residents. Here's what we found:
Next we looked at the Education Score Distributions for College Towns and Non-College Towns. These education scores, based on our K12 ranking and analysis, inform our ranking "Towns with the Best Public Schools in America" A high education score indicates that a town has great local schools with invested teachers and positive student outcomes. You can see how our Best Public Schools ranking is calculated here. Here's what we found:
Finally, we were curious if the quality of the college in the college town had any correlation to the livability of that town. To see if there was a correlation we created a scatter plot of College Overall Score and College Town Overall Score.
Exactly what factors are driving this mild correlation are not clear. However, it is clear that a few towns stand out as homes to great public schools, colleges, and are great places to live. you can view our full list of "Best College Towns in America" here.

The first time I saw Bon Jovi, I had behind the stage tickets. Normally, that would be a bad thing, butt it was not. That is because Jon Bon Jovi has the best ass in Rock'n'Roll, and I enjoyed spending the whole time looking at the two half cantaloupes in his tight jeans with my binoculars.
That was a long time, butt some things never change. For example, in this video diary from the Tallin and Stockholm tour dates, you can see his cheeks are still just as round. All that Jazzercise he does during his shows is paying off big time.
He truly is someone who gets better with age. Normally, I don't find men with grey hair attractive, but on him it sends my tempature up to 7800° Fahrenheit.
Seriously though, I want to thank the videographer, who read my mind, and focused on shooting below the belt.
In conclusion, watch this video and have a nice day! I know I am now.
Can you believe that is the butt of a 56-year-old? But then again if you put on a concert like he does, then we should expect that his body to be as toned as it is. And his bum to be as perfect as it is.
That was then, yesterday Don and Jon hung out together and we got a glimpse of what it would have been like if Sonny Crockett was on the case to arrest bad guy Bon Jovi. What, you think he would have been a good guy. This is our wet dream and we all like bad boys!
Yesterday, P!nk became the latest celebrity to sit in the front seat with James Corden as they took part in Carpool Karaoke on The Late Late Show. Like the past shotgun riders, she revealed things about herself we did not know.
Did you know that her first crush was Jon Bon Jovi? When the elementary school student heard he got married, she locked herself in her room for days. Years later, when she was old enough to drink, she met the man who broke her heart. She told him the story and he sent her a lifesize bouquet of flowers with a pair of leather pants. With the pants came a note that said, "Now you can finally get into my pants." Go JBJ! How come when my friend told him that I think he has the best a$$ in Rock'n'Roll, I got nothing from him! I want to get into his pants too!!!
Anyways, back to her because it all about her now. She also said she toured with *NSYNC and went on a date with one of them. In fact, Joey Fatone asked her dad if they could go on a date and they went to Friendly's. Which was an appropriate restaurant because she says he was stuck in the friend's zone. Poor Joey.
Finally, she revealed that she sings better upside down. Therefore, the CBS late night host and her tested it out on of those thingies that let's you do that. Only problem is Corden got stuck and no one wanted to help turn him right side up.
And with that their journey was over. And we are left to wonder whatever happened to those leather pants that Carey Hart threw out.

We have heard Jon Bon Jovi do many different cover songs throughout the years, but have you ever heard him do Bobby Pickett's Monster Mash? Here he is singing the Halloween tune yesterday at Better Midler's NYRP Hulaween Bash. I never knew he had such a creepy voice, but good thing he does because it really makes this comedic song even more horrifying.

BRIDGEWATER, Va. - The University of Lynchburg outscored Bridgewater 22-11 in the third quarter to open up a 14-point lead and the Hornets held off the Eagles in the final quarter to take a 77-68 ODAC victory Saturday afternoon.
Bridgewater took an early 5-4 lead on a 3-pointer by Briana Moore and a layup by Claire Mocarski, but the Hornets scored the next six points and led the rest of the way.
After a 3-pointer by Madison Baum pulled the Eagles to within two points, Lynchburg responded with a 7-2 spurt to lead 17-10. After Erin Green scored inside, Maggie Quarles scored the next five points to put the Hornets ahead by seven. Allie Coburn worked inside for a bucket with 35 seconds left in the quarter to close the gap to 17-12.
Lynchburg (9-9, 7-4 in the ODAC) used an 11-4 run in the second period to push its lead to 10 points, 32-22. Leading 21-18, Molly Shephard powered inside and converted a three-point play for a 24-18 Hornets lead. Bridgewater's Sydni Carey and Lynchburg's Green traded buckets before two foul shots by Baum pulled the Eagles to within 26-22 at the midway point of the second quarter.
Kate Kolb worked the paint for a bucket and Shephard added two baskets, giving Lynchburg a 32-22 lead with 3:24 left in the first half. Moore then knocked down back-to-back 3-pointer to trim the margin down to four points, 32-28.
Carolyn Noe responded with a 3-pointer for the Hornets before a layup by Coburn cut the Hornets' lead to 35-30 with 1:46 left in the second quarter. Bridgewater's Rebecca Harvey connected on a jumper with 32 seconds left in the half, sending the Eagles to the locker room trailing by just three points, 35-32. at the half.
Lynchburg scored the first eight points of the third quarter to take a 43-32 lead. Lynchburg kept the lead near double digits the remainder of the quarter and then closed with a 5-0 spurt to take its biggest lead. Lizzie Davis hit from long range and Noe connected on a jumper, giving the Hornets a 57-43 lead entering the final quarter.
Trailing 60-49 with 7:34 left in the game, the Eagles used a 6-1 spurt to trim the deficit to six. Mocarski hit a pair of buckets for the Eagles, making the score 60-53. After Shephard made 1-of-2 free throws, Harvey drove the lane and scored on a short jumper, pulling the Eagles to within 61-55 with 5:42 left in the game.
Green drained a 3-pointer and then added a 15-footer to quickly push the Lynchburg lead back to double figures, 66-55, with 4:39 remaining. The Eagles continued to battle and a 7-2 fluury once again made it a six-point game. Coburn and Noe traded short jumpers before a 3-pointer by Coburn pulled the Eagles to within 68-60 with 2:42 left. After the teams traded turnovers, a jumper by Moore cut the Hornets' edge to 68-62 with 1:45 on the clock.
Lynchburg turned the ball over on its next possession and the Eagles had a chance to cut the deficit in half, but Harvey's open look at a 3-pointer rattled in-and-out with Green controlling the rebound wth 1:03 left.
Shephard posted a double-double to lead the Hornets, finishing with 27 points and 11 rebounds. Green scored 21 points and Noe added 13. Moore paced the Eagles with 25 points. Coburn added 12 points and nine rebounds while Baum finished with 13 points and five assists.
The loss was the fourth straight for the Eagles, now 9-8 overall and 4-7 in the ODAC. Bridgewater returns to action Tuesday night when the Eagles travel to Randolph-Macon.

Man Enters Plea To Break-In That Led To Motorcycle Club Fire
A plea has been entered by the man charged with a break-in at the Scorpions Motorcycle Club in Lyon Township.
40-year-old Kinley Rae-Thomas Kelm pleaded no contest last week in Oakland County Circuit Court to charges of breaking and entering with intent, larceny of firearms, being a felon in possession of a firearm and two counts of felony firearms. A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt, but is considered as such at sentencing.
Police say that on September 22nd, 2017 a fire severely damaged the Scorpions Motorcycle Club headquarters building on Milford Road. A Bobcat belonging to a fence company working a project at the nearby War Dog Memorial was reportedly stolen, driven to the motorcycle club and used to crash through the clubhouse wall and move a large safe. Club members identified Kelm as a suspect in the break-in after noticing him in downtown South Lyon at a fundraiser, wearing a Scorpions shirt that was from a locker inside the clubhouse. When questioned, Kelm reportedly said he was an out of state club member, but couldn't provide further proof, leading the club member to take his picture and verify he was lying.
It's believed the fire that damaged the clubhouse began when propane lines were damaged by Kelm as he removed the safe. Kelm, who remains jailed on a $100,000 bond, will be sentenced December 19th. (JK)

Your writing peeves
What are your pet peeves when it comes to writing, or other peoples' writing? What things bother you when reading someone's story, that you try to avoid in your own writings?
1. Un-necessary eye and hair colour description: "Maria-Tasha-Louisa-Olivia had sea-blue, huge eyes, with the longest lashes anyone ever saw. Her hair was the colour of ravens, flowing silkily down her back, like a river with black water."
Just "Maria had large blue eyes and black hair" will be enough for the reader (or at least me) to understand that her eyes are blue and her hair is black.
2. Moments when it is obvious that the author Did Not Do The Research.
Honestly, when I know that something is definitely incorrect, it throws me off, especially if it affects the rest of the story. For example, to be a nurse (or even Voluntary Aide Detachment nurse) in WW1 you had to have a) at least SIX months of experience and b) be at least 23 years old. I'm sorry but little things like that nag at me if I know that the author hadn't quite thoroughly done the research. I'm sorry, Theresa Breslin, even if Char-"Mary Sue"-lotte did pretend she was 20, she still would not have been allowed overseas to nurse in France. Still three years too young!
3. Obvious moments where the author can't bear to kill off children in the story.
Sure, perhaps in fiction grenades might be 'kind and considerate' and spare the child, but I wouldn't want to try this in real life. If it's too obvious that you don't want to kill the child, you might run the risk of losing crediblity in the reader's eyes.

Re: Your writing peeves
I like personality in characters a lot. If I come across characters that the author wants me to like but all I hear about is their looks ie. perfect, hot, amazing, gorgeous etc, it's frustrating because I want to know what they're like as a person, heart and mind. This is just my personal opinion, what I'm drawn to in a character.
One type I like is:
"So-and-so stood by a window, random sunbeams that had evaded the clouds danced on her plum-coloured dress."
Quickly it describes the type of clothes she likes and what the weather is doing has been slipped in; so they don't have to directly spend time mentioning it later.
Sometimes I don't mind in-depth descriptions if they have a point. For instance, say a personification of Winter, and his/her hair, eye-colour, clothes and presence enforces what and who he/she is.
The research point, is a big one.
Sometimes historical situations can be changed slightly to allow for the fictional character to take part. Then the author does a historical reference in the back of the book to acknowledge the changes. Bernard Cornwell who wrote the Sharpe series does this very well. But, he has done a great deal of research in order to make the shifts believable.

Overuse of the word "orbs" instead of "eyes". I don't use this description in real life and I don't know anyone who does so why is it okay when we write?

Re: Your writing peeves
I agree with all above, but also grammar and spelling mistakes really bother me. I know I do a lot of them (at least when I write in English, but you have to excuse me there; I'm not a native speaker and I haven't had the best teachers), but if you work as a writer (journalist, author, etc.), can't you please at least read quickly through your book/article/whatever to check that you haven't done obvious mistakes such as "she are reading"?
And I absolutely hate word division mistakes. The local newspaper is very good at dividing words at the wrong place. They obviously haven't got someone who reads through the paper to correct any mistakes at all before printing it. I seriously consider volunteering for such a job, they wouldn't even have to pay me. If I see a mistake when I read anything, I get this strong urge to correct it (more accurately: the mistake screams at me and wants me to help it so it's not a mistake anymore, and how can I resist that?), so I would be very good at my job. Only, as I have experienced, fifteen-year-olds are seldom taken seriously about this kind of things.
Oh, and if a word/expression/etc. is repeated too many times, I have to stop reading and just go for a walk or drink a cup of tea or something before I continue. Norwegian book translators are usually very good at that, that's one of the reasons why I mostly read in the original language, if possible.
I am a perfectionist, especially when it comes to grammar.

Re: Your writing peeves
I rather hate typos in published writing, as it just seems like the author/editor didn't really care that much. Personally (and I bet a lot of people would disagree), I think it's annoying when people just declare things "well-written" and then when asked to explain what that means, say something vague. IMHO, "well-written" is something extremely subjective that changes depending on the reader. I also am disgusted with pretentious writing.
"Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?"
"Hmm... What do you think Harry?" said Luna, looking thoughtful.
"What? Isn't there a password?"
"Oh no, you've got to answer the question," said Luna.
"What if you get it wrong?"
"Well, you have to wait for somebody who gets it right," said Luna. "That way you learn, you see?"

Noticable typos and grammatical errors irritate me. When a timeline is off, like a matter of age that doesn't make sense in comparison to an event. It bugs me. I feel an orderly timeline is necessary.

Re: Your writing peeves
Typos don't bother me very much as long as it isn't obvious. I can understand how hard it is to find every mistake and it's probably been edited a number of times.
Personally, I hate it when authors write the words "I mean," too much. (In first person)
Ex. I mean, why does she think she can act like that?
I'm currently reading Blue Moon, (sequal to Evermore) and though it's on the bestseller list and a really good book, I find it REALLY annoying how many times the author put writes I mean.
Like what was said above, too much detail is pointless and a waste of my time.
I was reading a book called Winter Solistice. The first 5 pages or so are discribing a ladys dog and her walk to town. Once she gets to town a guy randomly asks her to come to dinner with him and his wife.
Why does the author need to put all this detail in if it's meaningless? Unless it means something important then the author needs to learn to take it out. (maybe they should try reading 'The Elements of Style', and foucus on rule 17: Omit Needless Words)
Now I make many errors myself, so I'm not trying to be a hypocrite; those are just my pet peeves.

Re: Your writing peeves
I hate things like
'The Elves were a dying race in their twilight' *Reaches for Chain-Ax*
Or 'The misty morning light shone down on their ageless faces filled with the wisdom of millenia'
This was cool when Tolkien did because it was his creation and he wasn't ripping off someone else.
*Grabs Chain-Ax and goes off to hunt down the generic fantasy writers*
'The Dark One (lord, king, whatever, there are so many of them it likes Attack of the Clones) brooded on his dark throne (They were on sale a American Furniture Warehouse) from his dark tower (Is there perhaps a suburb of Dark Towers?)
In the dark land (Perhaps thats the name of neighborhood?)'
When Tolkien did it it was okay because it was his creation and since it was his creation it was original. But these people aren't Tolkien they never will be Tolkien. Why then can they not grasp that? Instead of ripping off the founder of the Fantasy genre? Was the entire genre dropped on its head as a baby?

Wit Beyond Measure is Mans Greatest Treasure
Re: Your writing peeves
Let's see, I have quite a few so stick with me for a moment...
1. I work in a bank and I see a LOT of e-mails coming through my inbox every day, including e-mails I was CC'd on that are going out to bank customers. One person I work with, who happens to be very bright, has a bad habit of sending out e-mails to customers without a second read-through. Often, I'll read one of the e-mails and see numerous grammatical errors, unprofessional formatting, uncontrolled punctuation (e.g. "???????") and undeniable proof that they didn't even bother to press the SpellCheck button once before pressing Send.
This is a huge pet peeve for me because I tend to read through anything I send or post at least 2-3 times (yes, even posts on CoS or other forums). I don't just view it as a reflection on myself, I view it as a measure of respect for the people I am attempting to communicate with. Honestly, if you can't take an extra 30 seconds to reread what you expect someone else to follow, how can you say that you respect them?
2. I agree with the original poster regarding the comments on purple prose. Nothing annoys me more than excessive description when it comes to a character's physical appearance. Sentences that use "ruby red lips" or "crystal blue eyes" always get an extra eye-roll from me. What some writers don't realize is that too much description will do the exact opposite of what they intended. Most users of purple prose only want to bring the readers further into the story by providing greater detail, but instead they push the reader away by removing the much needed chance to fill in the blanks.
3. To and too; it's and its; their, there, and they're; sense and since; you're and your; etc.
4. "Common speak" outside of dialog. I've been finding this to be an increasingly larger problem over the years. Some new authors try to "write like they speak." If I find a good example, I'll add it here.
- Inigo
EDIT: I went back up and read another post (I believe it was 2 posts above mine) that mentioned Evermore, a book I recently finished reading. This reminded me of another pet peeve. It is incredibly annoying when an author becomes attached to a particular phrase or word and they can't seem to help but stick it into the book at least once per chapter. Just like the "I mean..." mentioned above, I noticed that a lot of characters in Evermore "pressed his/her lips together" in an exaggerated act of irritation. This also reminded me of how many Twilight characters were "chagrined" by something. A thesaurus is a great tool, I wish some authors would give it more of a chance.

Re: Your writing peeves
I have a few.
1. Grammatical errors/ sentence fragments.
These can easily be corrected. I don't mind if there is a few in a good book. I find it acceptable for errors to be missed.
2. Poetry issues.
This could go with anything written and not just poems. On another forum I am a part of I've noticed a lot of people like to write poems that all revolve around love and wanting to die. I mean, there isn't anything wrong with that idea but they are all typically written the same way. There isn't beauty or sadness in it. I don't feel anything but cheesiness (not a word)
3. When people try too hard.
When it's obvious the person tries too hard. Like with gore, they go crazy and just kill tons of people. For instance, I might get haters but, I think J.K. Rowling went overboard with the deaths at the end. It felt rushed too me.
Re: Your writing peeves
It depends. Some authors use a little too much description and not just once, but over and over. Like with the Twilight series. The author has Bella relating what Edward and his siblings look like to her. In the begining that's alright, but throughout the book she keeps doing the same thing. It's like ok, so he's a god I got it.
And doing transitions is difficult. Some of them I've read make me wonder what is going on. The transition from memory back to reality isn't clear.
Re: Your writing peeves
Another pet peeve of mine is when authors keep repeating the colour of his/her eyes or hair very frequently, as though they fear we'd forget within two pages.
e.g. His dark brown eyes locked with my own light green. "You think you can manage Potter?" he quipped.
"Yeah, he's a good boy." I answered.
He rolled his brown eyes. "You're a hardcase, you are."
Those brown eyes narrowed at me.
Okay, okay, we get it! He got brown eyes!
Speaking of eye colours, another cliche that sometimes annoys me just a tiny little bit is 'chocolate brown eyes': we've heard that way too many times. Okay, let's say the person's got dark brown eyes. Here's some more fresh ways to describe them:
1. His irises blended in so well with his pupils, his eyes appeared almost completely black at a distance.
2. His eyes were the colour of dark chocolate, with about 75% cocoa.
3. His big eyes were the colour of darkened oak wood.
4. Two brown-black eyes stared back at me.
5. A pair of dark brown eyes sat close on either side of his nose.
Please excuse all these references to brown eyes; I have a thing for them today for some reason.

Re: Your writing peeves
I only write stories for one franchise, and even that series uses a pretty recycled plot. One can only go adventuring, or have someone attack their home so many times.
ThestralStorm121 is two sides of a coin.
Re: Your writing peeves
My biggest writing pet peeve of the moment is the excessive use of ellipses. I'm getting sick of people replacing periods with this punctuation intended for unfinished thoughts or pauses. Ellipses do not belong in professional writing unless there is an actual purpose to having them. In fiction writing, these are good if a character is speaking and trails off without finishing a sentence or if a character is cut off by an interruption (though I would prefer "--" in those cases).
For those of you just starting out in an office job where you will be expected to send numerous e-mails a day: using ellipses (more than once a month) is akin to telling your boss that you are incapable of making a decision on where to end the sentence.
It becomes very difficult... you know... to read sentences that just continue to be separated by so many dots.... It is especially frustrating to find these in professional writing... such as e-mails... or office memos... because it seems like the author is never able to complete a thought...
You know what I mean...

Re: Your writing peeves
I hate it when authors feel it's necessary to insert fragments on at least every page. Fragments can be very effective if they're used very infrequently. But when you use them constantly, all they do is annoy the reader.
For example:
I could have run. Forever. Without ever stopping.
I wanted to be free.
I felt human again. Alive.
(I just made that up.)
And actually, not only are all those sentences broken, the word choice is poor, which often happens in this situation.

Ice TV was a popular 90s TV3 youth show hosted by Petra Bagust, Jon Bridges and Nathan Rarere. This 1998 'best of' sees a 20/20 satire (a world's biggest bonsai trees scam); Bagust meets Meatloaf, Bridges meets American brothers boy band Hanson, visits a 'storm-namer', and they both go on Outward Bound; Rarere road tests Elvis's diet (peanut butter and bacon in bread, deep fried); plus the trio go to the zoo and gym to discover why humans are the "sexiest primates alive". Included is the show's trademark sign-off, where L&P bottles are subjected to various stresses.
This 2014 series looks at the role of architects on Kiwi building projects, as they respond to the challenges of budget, environment, site and client expectations. In this last episode of the series, host Peter Elliott asks if "architectural design can be financially achievable". He meets company Herbst Architects, and talks space, emotion and design for a steep Waiheke Island section, and a modular bach. Two fathers share the build of a John Irving-designed beach house; and a Point Chevalier house designed by A Studio aims for zero energy. Plus Elliott recaps the series' grand designs.
Riddled with old military tunnels, Auckland's North Head has long been the focus of speculation. In this documentary Philip Alpers explores theories that a hidden tunnel network contains tonnes of decaying ammunition — and two old Boeing airplanes. Archeologist Dave Veart sets about finding the truth. The man responsible for closing the tunnels says there's nothing there; others recall seeing a plane. Filmmaker John Earnshaw is convinced of its existence. Earnshaw would spend years battling the crown in court, over claims of a breached agreement to search North Head.
This black comedy sees Kiwi blokes Barry (Tim Gordon) and Kev (Jason Hoyte) set off into the sunrise for a day's fishing. The 'men alone' glories of Godzone in a runabout are disrupted when they discover their attitudes towards domestic violence and sexuality are at odds. Director Adam Stevens adapted the story from a scene in Atrocities, a play written by Hoyte and Jonathon Brugh (aka Sugar and Spice). In 2001 Beautiful went to the New York, Melbourne and Montreal film festivals, before screening at Sundance; it won Best Short Film at the 2003 NZ Film Awards.
Deep Obsession flared brightly but briefly in the late 90s, thanks to a string of Eurodance club songs; they are the one and only act to have achieved three consecutive number ones ('Lost in Love', 'Cold', 'One and Only') on the NZ music charts. They were founded by producer/musician Chris Banks, with Zara Clark and Vanessa Kelly handling the vocals. Demos recorded at More FM radio studios led to a signing by Universal (NZ). Sole album Infinity got to number eight. The group toured internationally and supported Hanson and S Club 7.
Ronald Sinclair began his movie career at age 11 as Ra Hould, when he appeared in Down on the Farm (1935), a contender for New Zealand's first feature-length drama made with sound. The following year he went to Hollywood, where MGM changed his name to Ronald Sinclair for movie Thoroughbreds Don't Cry. After war service with the US Army he worked for more than two decades as a film editor.
Sally Martin was first spotted by a casting director while acting on stage at a Wellington high school. Since international hit The Tribe in 2002, she has rarely been off television screens: she co-starred as ninja hero Tori Hanson in Power Rangers Ninja Storm, and played the feisty Sasha in backpacker TV comedy Welcome to Paradise. In 2009 Martin joined the cast of Shortland Street for an extended run as nurse Nicole Miller, on and off partner of Maia Jeffries.
Annie Goldson, NZOM, is probably New Zealand's most awarded documentary filmmaker. Her work — including the feature-length An Island Calling, Brother Number One and Kim Dotcom: Caught in the Web — often examines the political through the personal. Goldson's films have played widely overseas, and won awards in New Zealand, England, Spain, France, the Philippines and the United States.
These days Jacob Tomuri is the go-to stunt double for actor Tom Hardy, but he hasn't always been in stunt work. Tomuri studied drama and took up stunting on The Lord of The Rings, before roles on The Tribe and Shortland Street gave him the chance to upskill his acting chops. He has gone on to double for Hardy on Mad Max: Fury Road and The Revenant. In 2017 he co-starred in acclaimed action short Do No Harm.
By 2001 Russell Crowe was an international star, thanks to award-winning performances in The Insider, Gladiator and A Beautiful Mind. Born in New Zealand and raised on both sides of the Tasman, the Oscar winner continues to act in feature films, and in 2014 made his movie directing debut with Aussie hit The Water Diviner. Once known as Auckland singer Russ le Roq, Crowe also sings in band The Ordinary Fear of God.

Summer league basketball wins don't count for much for high school basketball teams, at least not officially.
The way head coach Anthony Long and the Dr. Phillips Panthers see it, though, winning is winning no matter the season — a mantra the Panthers rode to a 25-1 record this summer.
"It's important to us because it's part of the culture that we try to create," Long said of his team's success in June. "We want to create a culture where winning is the standard and losing is just not acceptable."
The summer months of June and July are unofficially split into two separate periods — June being a time for high school teams to play together in leagues and tournaments and July being a time for players to focus on AAU and travel ball obligations to increase exposure in front of college scouts.
This June was good to Dr. Phillips, which played most of its games in the summer league organized by West Orange coach Eric Jones. In addition to the two games per week that the Panthers played as a part of the league, Long's team also participated in several weekend showcases and tournaments, most recently wrapping the summer season at a showcase in The Villages.
Dr. Phillips' sole loss came against Gainesville and, along the way, they picked up a number of notable wins. The Panthers defeated Bartow and Lake Minneola — the 2013 runner-ups in Class 7A and Class 6A, respectively.
Dr. Phillips, which started all underclassmen a season ago, thrived on continuity from its strong 2013-2014 campaign.
"I knew we would have a pretty good summer because we're returning all five of our starters," Long said. "We're a little bit ahead of most people — most people in the summer are just incorporating new starters into their lineup because of graduating seniors.
"We didn't have to do that."
The summer season also provided a chance for the Panthers' young core to grow.
Dr. Phillips will again be led by rising-senior forward Jonathan Laurent, a dynamic player who has fielded interest from Division I programs including UCF, Florida and Miami, but the growth of younger players will be key to whether the Panthers make a run at the state title.
"We started two freshman last year (Chaundee Brown and Elijah Jordan) and they're just getting better and better," Long said. "The sky is the limit with how far they can go."
The next time Dr. Phillips takes the floor will be in the preseason, which they will open against Bartow at home on November 11. And if Long has his way, the winning ways of the summer will serve to carry over into the upcoming season.
"We don't like to lose in the summer, the fall, the winter — any time," Long said.

|Suck it, impurities.
|Photo from Sephora.com
Well, yes and no. It draws out impurities about as well as any other clay mask I've ever tried. And it exfoliates ... like any other peel-off mask I've tried. But I'll be honest, for 38.00 USD, I'd much rather just go buy a bottle of Freeman's Cucumber Peel-Off face mask for four bucks and be done with it. (Which I do. I use that once a week, and once a week I use their Avocado-Oatmeal clay mask for the drawing out impurities bit. I'll use the clay one more often if my skin is being a dirty jackass.)
Now, if you've got thirty-eight bucks to drop? Sure, do it - it'll save you time. If you're like me and wince while inwardly shrieking about how that's half of your electric bill, just stick to Freeman's. It might not have the same awesome DUDE IT'S BLACK factor, but for all the money you'll save, you can get some black nail polish. Now let's go listen to some Burzum together, oh dark hearted friend.
The consensus: this mask is trendy and oh so cool, but not worth your time if you're pinching pennies like 99% of us are. (OH DO YOU SEE WHAT I DID THERE.) Let's go peel our plageskin off now!

Summary of Capsicum Carotenoids
Primary Information, Benefits, Effects, and Important Facts
Capsicum Carotenoids are two pigments from the Capsicum family of vegetables (most well known for peppers and cayenne, and to a lesser degree paprika). These pigmentations belong to the class of carotenoids, and are reddish in nature.
They affect metabolism of other compounds and pharmaceuticals by acting as inhibitors of a class of proteins that eject some drugs and supplements from inside cells, and can also eject supplements from the liver back into the intestine. For supplements that are subject to these protein transports, inhibiting the transports increases the amount of supplement taken up by the body.

Capsicum Carotenoids include the two structurally similar compounds Capsorubin and Capsanthin.
They are found in all capsicum vegetables and fruits, and are found in very high amounts in both deep red chillies, cayenne, and paprika; the latter ranging from 3-8g/kg total carotenoids.[1] Specifically, the capsicum carotenoid content of cayenne is approximately 2.01 capsanthin and 0.31 capsorubin, and paprika has values of 2.19-3.49 capsanthin and 0.42 to 0.98 capsorubin (all numbers g/kg)[2][3]
Multidrug Resistance proteins (MDRs) are protein transports on tumor cells and other cells such as intestinal cells. They serve to eject compounds that build up in a cell, and exist as a defense mechanism for said cell.
Both Capsorubin and Capsanthin are able to potently inhibit P-Glycoprotein and MDR-1, two well-characterized efflux proteins.[4][5] Via this action they may increase the bioavailability of some compounds, such as Berberine.

4 New Ways You Can Avoid Fines For Not Having Health Insurance
Among changes by the Trump administration, new rules protect consumers living in areas with only one marketplace plan as well as those who oppose abortion and can't find a plan that doesn't cover the procedure. These rules will resonate in California, where most health plans are required to cover abortion and six counties have only one insurer selling through the ACA exchange. (Michelle Andrews, 4/24)

California Must Move Toward Single Payer To Avoid Fiscal Emergency, Gubernatorial Candidate Says
The issue of whether California should move toward a single-payer health system is proving to be a litmus test for candidates in the gubernatorial race. While some support it despite what they say are its flaws, others blast it as costly and unrealistic.
Sacramento Bee:
CA Gubernatorial Candidates Debate Single-Payer Health Care
Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, the frontrunner for California governor says he "doesn't see an alternative" to a taxpayer-financed single-payer health care system run by state government. If California doesn't drastically reshape the way health care is financed and delivered, he said, soaring health care costs will create a fiscal emergency that could bankrupt the nation's wealthiest and most populous state. (Hart, 4/24)
Sacramento Bee:
Newsom, Eastin Back Single-Payer Health Care
As the state contemplates major changes as to how health care will be financed and delivered, California gubernatorial candidates have outlined their positions. Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and former state schools chief Delaine Eastin, both liberal Democrats, are the only two to unequivocally voice support for creation of a single-payer health care system financed by California taxpayers and run by the government.

UC San Diego Health's Hillcrest and La Jolla hospitals both got Cs after receiving As just one year ago. The safety grades for Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla and Scripps Green Hospital in Torrey Pines both fell from A to B.
The San Diego Union-Tribune:
Two Sharp Hospitals Nab Only As In Latest Quality Report Card
Two Sharp hospitals are the only facilities in the region to earn A grades as a handful of high-profile facilities saw their scores erode in the latest safety report from the Leapfrog Group, a well-known nonprofit that specializes in health care accountability. Published Tuesday, the report judges thousands of hospitals nationwide across 27 quality categories, ranging from infection prevention to surgical death rates, issuing letter grades from A through F. (Sisson, 4/24)
Familiar Double Helix DNA Strands Aren't The Only Ones That Show Up In Human Cells
Scientists have found DNA structures that more resemble a tangled knot -- and they seem like they may be fairly common in cells.
Los Angeles Times:
In Human Cells, Scientists Find DNA That Looks Like A Twisted Knot Instead Of A Double Helix
Biology textbooks may be due for a rewrite.For the first time, scientists have detected a DNA structure inside living human cells that looks more like a four-stranded knot than the elegant double helix we learned about in school. The tangled shape, known as an i-motif, had been seen before in the lab, but few researchers expected it to occur in human cells. The new work shows not only that i-motifs do indeed exist in human cells, but that they may be quite common. (Netburn, 4/23)

With Money Tied Up In Court, California Lawmakers Try Again With New Plan To Spend $2 Billion On Homeless Housing
A measure to spend $2 billion on housing homeless Californians could be on the November statewide ballot. State Sen. Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles) is pushing the idea to deal with what he said was a "burgeoning humanitarian crisis whose epicenter is here in California." De León's new measure is a do-over for a 2016 plan passed by the Legislature to redirect $2 billion toward building homeless housing from a voter-approved 1% income tax surcharge on millionaires that funds mental health services.

VA Nominee's Hearing Postponed As Senators Look Into Allegations Of Misconduct
Senate Democrats huddled privately Monday to discuss the allegations related to improper conduct in various stages of his career. "There are reasons, as there are with every presidential appointee, for very close scrutiny and vetting. We need to know if allegations raised by others may have some factual basis. That's the process of vetting that has to occur," said Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.).

Ronny Jackson, Trump's V.A. Nominee, Faces Claims Of Overprescription And Hostile Work Environment
The Senate Veterans Affairs Committee is examining allegations that President Trump's nominee to lead the Veterans Affairs Department oversaw a hostile work environment as the White House physician and allowed the overprescribing of drugs, according to congressional officials briefed on the committee's work. They have also received claims that Dr. Ronny L. Jackson drank too much on the job. (Fandos, 4/24)
The Washington Post:
Senate To Postpone Confirmation Hearing For Ronny Jackson To Head Veterans Affairs, White House Officials Told
Senate lawmakers have postponed the confirmation hearing for Ronny L. Jackson, President Trump's nominee to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs, after top Republicans and Democrats raised concerns about his qualifications and oversight of the White House medical staff, White House and other administration officials were told Monday. The development came just two days before Jackson, the White House physician, was scheduled to testify before the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs and threw what was looking to be a difficult confirmation process into further jeopardy. (Kim, Rein and Dawsey, 4/23)
The Washington Post:
White House Stands By Embattled Nominee To Lead Veterans Affairs
The White House said Tuesday that it is standing by Ronny L. Jackson to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs after the confirmation hearing for President Trump's nominee was postponed this week amid concerns from top Republican and Democratic lawmakers.

White House Scrambling As Ronny Jackson's VA Nomination Hits The Skids
The White House is scrambling to save the nomination of Rear Adm. Ronny Jackson to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs amid growing concern on Capitol Hill about Jackson's past. President Donald Trump named the White House physician as his pick to lead the sprawling bureaucracy after firing David Shulkin. The move raised eyebrows in Congress and among veterans groups because Jackson, who was also former President Barack Obama's physician, has never led a large organization. (Restuccia and Nussbaum, 4/24)
Short-Term Insurance Plans Will Siphon Off Healthier Patients And Split Marketplace, Opponents Warn
Insurer lobbying group AHIP spoke out against the Trump administration's proposal to allow people to buy short-term health insurance for up to 12 months. But supporters of the plans say fears are overblown and argue that the expanded options are needed for people who are uninsured. Meanwhile, is health care really the "No. 1 issue in America?" The Washington Post fact checks that claim.
The Washington Post:
Trump Proposal Could Mean Healthy People Save On Insurance While Others Get Priced Out
The Trump administration's proposal to build up short-term health insurance plans as a "lifeline" for people who can't afford Affordable Care Act coverage could split the insurance market in two, siphoning young, healthy people into cheaper, more minimal plans — while those who remain in ACA plans face premiums that spiral upward even faster. The comment period ends Monday on a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services proposal to extend short-term plans to 364 days, from the current three-month limit. (Johnson, 4/23)
The Hill:
Insurer Group Issues Warning On Trump Administration's Short-Term Health Plan Proposal
The nation's largest trade group for health insurance companies is sounding the alarm on a proposal from the Trump administration that would expand the sale of plans that cover fewer services. America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) says the proposal could lead to more people being uninsured or underinsured and result in higher health-care costs in the long run. (Hellmann, 4/23)
The Washington Post Fact Checker:
Is Health Care The 'Number One Issue In America'?
Politicians are often eager to cite polling as a reason for action. In an article that highlighted a proposal by [Sen. Chris] Murphy and Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) to allow individuals and large employers to purchase health insurance coverage through Medicare, Murphy described health care as the "number one issue" in America. Does polling back up that assertion? (Kessler, 4/24)

Trump Administration Pushes Abstinence In Teen Pregnancy Programs
The Trump administration has issued new rules for funding programs to prevent teenage pregnancy, favoring those that promote abstinence and not requiring as rigorous evidence of effectiveness. While the funding announcement, issued Friday by the Department of Health and Human Services, does not exclude programs that provide information about contraception and protected sex, it explicitly encouraged programs that emphasize abstinence or "sexual risk avoidance."

CDC Chief Makes $375K, Far Exceeding His Predecessors' Pay
The new head of the nation's top public health agency is getting paid nearly twice what his predecessor made and far more than other past directors, government officials confirmed. Dr. Robert Redfield Jr., 66, has long career as a top HIV researcher, but he had no experience working in public health or managing a public health agency. The U.S. government is paying him $375,000 a year to run the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.That's nearly twice the annual compensation given to Dr. Brenda Fitzgerald, who had the job for six months before resigning in January. Her annual pay rate was $197,300. (Stobbe, 4/23)

'Whole Again': A Vet Maimed By An I.E.D. Receives A Transplanted Penis
In a 14-hour operation, a young military veteran whose genitals were blown off by a bomb received an extraordinary transplant: a penis, scrotum and portion of the abdominal wall, taken from a deceased organ donor. The surgery, performed last month at Johns Hopkins Hospital, was the most complex and extensive penis transplant to date, and the first performed on a combat veteran maimed by a blast. (Grady, 4/23)
Weight Loss Drugs Were Commercial Flops. Can They Be Used For Addiction?
If dependence on cocaine or cigarettes is the result of addiction, is obesity in essence an addiction to food? Some scientists certain think so, which is why several weight loss drugs are being studied as potential addiction therapies. There are plenty to choose from: A wave of prescription weight loss drugs hit the market in recent years, and they were initially expected to perform well. But medications including Qsymia, Belviq, and Contrave have all flailed on the market — doctors and patients alike have been reticent to take them. (Keshavan, 4/24)

Camping is a great way to get away from the "real world." It allows you to enjoy nature and forget about your worries for a while. The paragraphs that follow have a number of great ideas that you can apply towards your next trip.
Ask family or friends who are camping with you for their input on your camping location. Openly talk about the various options available to you. There are many sites in the country to visit that are nearby and are very beneficial. If it is easier, select a few of your personal favorites and then let the entire family vote.
If you have bought a brand new tent in preparation for your camping trip, set it up at home first before you use it for camping. That way, you will know that the tent is complete and will understand the assembly process. You don't want to waste time at your destination, so this will make you well prepared.
A first aid kit or survival kit is imperative for camping. In your survival kit, be sure you have waterproof matches, a flare gun, a first aid kit, water-purifying tablets and a knife. These items are important to have in case you get lost. Keep your kit with you at all times; don't leave it at the campsite.
Do a "jungle breakfast" if you are bringing kids. Tie juice boxes, tiny boxes of cereal and fruit to trees in the woods. When the children awake, tell them that they have to "hunt" to get breakfast. It's a great way to add a little magic to the camping experience.
Before you go camping in a new place, it is essential to have an understanding of what dangers are located there. Figure out if there are any poisonous insects, what the land looks like and how the weather will be. Many camping areas pose some dangers.
Kids generally love camping, but plan some activities for them ahead of time. When you are in the woods with nothing around but trees, they may become bored. They probably aren't used to fishing or campfires. If they aren't used to camping activities, teach them before you leave.
Make sure to pack plenty of food, and pack the right kind too. It is very important to make sure the food you bring will not spoil during your trip. A bout of food poisoning can end a wonderful trip very quickly. Prepare all of the food you will take with your properly and find out what sort of precautions you should take.
Bring along supplies to keep you entertained in the great outdoors. Card games, fishing poles, scavenger hunt lists and other supplies can make hanging out in the woods more fun. This is especially important if children are going to be camping.
Before heading out to go camping, compile a checklist of items that you plan to bring. A list will help you to not forget to bring any essentials. Start packing a couple of days in advance of camping, making sure to follow a checklist.
Keep pictures of your children on you if they are comping with you. If they get separated from you, having a picture will make finding them a lot easier. Be sure that you have brought one for urgent situations, particularly if your camping destination is quite a ways from home.
Camping is a wonderful hobby. It lets you get away from the daily grind and bask in the beauty of the natural world. The tips in this article will help you enjoy your next trip to the outdoors.

Wiring issues can be frustrating and time consuming to fix, especially when you are not sure where to begin troubleshooting. When your trailer lights aren't working, your trailer is not working, and you are losing valuable time and money. Using the following information and testing procedures, you should be able to locate and eliminate the most common issues encountered during or following a 4 or 5-Way wiring harness installation and get back on the road as soon as possible.
When it comes to troubleshooting a wiring installation, testing is everything. A lighting problem can originate at any point along the wiring on either the tow vehicle or the trailer, so it is important to determine not only what is causing the problem, but where it is located. The question the troubleshooter will find themselves asking is "There are so many things to check. Where do I start?"
Perhaps the most helpful thing you can do to start troubleshooting is to determine whether the problem is on the tow vehicle or on the trailer. When you use your trailer to test, you have no way to know for certain whether the problem stems from an issue with the wiring harness because the trailer's wiring system is still part of the equation. Testing the vehicle without the trailer will allow you to separate the wiring system into manageable sections.
Use the testing procedure described in Method 1 to check for function at the vehicle's 4-Way plug. If all the functions come out correctly at the vehicle plug, you will know that the problem only appears when the trailer's wiring system is connected and you can concentrate your efforts on the trailer.
The most helpful tool to use will be a 12V probe-style circuit tester. Click here to see our circuit testers. In addition, you will want to have basic wiring tools on hand. These include electrical tape for repairing connections, a wire stripper for cleaning up wire ends, dielectric grease, and various wiring fasteners like butt connectors, quick splice connectors, or ring terminals, depending on the type of repairs required. Wiring kits that include these items are available.
A trim fastener removal tool can reduce the time needed to access your tail light wiring, particularly in SUV and minivan applications, but a flat-head (slotted) screwdriver will often work just as well. A power drill will be used to install the screws for the ground wires. A 12V battery can also be useful for testing trailer lights in situations where you don't have access to the vehicle or you suspect an issue with a particular trailer light.
|Common Wiring Issues
|Possible Issues
|Testing Procedures
|Trailer lights work except for one function: brake, right turn, left turn, or tail.
|None of the trailer lights work for any functions.
|Trailer lights worked when the harness was first installed, but eventually stopped working on one or all functions.
|Using one turn signal engages the turn signals on both sides of the trailer.
|Turning on head lights in the vehicle causes one or more of the trailer lights to stop working.
|One or more functions stays turned on, even when the vehicle ignition is off.
|Harness functions correctly at the vehicle side 4-Way plug until trailer is connected.

San Telmo: Best Area For Property Investment In Buenos Aires
You could say that the San Telmo district of Buenos Aires, Argentina, is the soul of...Read more
Population: 44,293,293
Capital City: Buenos Aires
Climate: Varied
Language: Spanish
International Dialing Code: +54
President: Mauricio Macri
Argentina is a captivating country that is both Latin American and European in culture and lifestyle, where the new and the old worlds blend harmoniously.
A destination that has welcomed immigrants and expats since the mid-1800s, much of the population in Argentina claims Italian or Spanish heritage or both. The connections are clear when you walk the streets of Buenos Aires. Everywhere are pasta and pizza shops, and Spanish is spoken with a noticeable Italian inflection.
However, to know Argentina's economy is to know one of the world's biggest dramas. The country is up and then it is down, with flashes of stability bridging the time between the last rise and next big tumble. In Late 2001, the Argentines removed the peg between their peso and the U.S. dollar, and the crisis situation opened a window of opportunity during which savvy investors, led by our editors, bought primo Buenos Aires apartments for a fraction of the former value…
Perhaps no other city in the world is as beguiling as Buenos Aires, Argentina's capital city, which is home to over 40% of the population. One the most bewitching things about Buenos Aires is how the New World and Old World blend so harmoniously. Grand dame Art Noveau apartment buildings, dating back centuries with the original crown molding preserved, coexist in the "Paris of South America" with contemporary, shiny new skyscrapers, and it all works together. The city is fast-paced and trendsetting in art, design, and style, but at the same time the cobbler on the corner and the neighborhood's beloved tailor are toiling away in the same location where they have been for decades. Argentines themselves are much like what the city shows, too. They have a deep respect and admiration for the past, yet they are always energetically innovating and looking forward.
If life among the vines appeals then head west from Buenos Aires to the famous wine-growing region of Mendoza in the shadow of the Andes. Expats looking for an outdoor lifestyle will find everything from horse-riding and mountain climbing to skiing and rafting.
