How many times have you impulsively added a blueberry muffin to your flat white coffee order in the morning? It's easy to do and coffee shop cabinets are designed to entice you with their delicious-looking sweet treats and freshly baked scents.
What if that muffin also came with a sign telling you that it contained 500 calories which equates to one quarter of your recommended energy requirements for the day? Would it change your mind? Could it help you to track where your extra calories are coming? Would you pick the fruit salad instead?
Many states in the US already have nutritional labelling in their fast food stores, where the number calories are listed next to the food item on the menu. This lets consumers easily compare the energy content of food items at a glance so they can make quick decisions if they are tracking calories.
This year food nutritional labelling will become mandatory across all states in the US for fast food chains that have more than 20 outlets, and many UK food outlets have followed suit with a voluntarily food labelling system.
A new study this week published in the Cochrane Library helps to show that moving towards prominent and easy to use calorie labelling next to food in restaurants and cafes could help reduce the number of calories people consume.
Eating too many calories is one of the major contributors to weight gain. Thanks to our busy lifestyles, more and more meals are being bought and eaten outside the home, making it difficult to track portion size or know what ingredients are going into the food. This rise in fast food consumption is also resulting in a significant rise in our waistline measurement.
As a nation we are getting fatter; the most recent OECD study shows we are the third fattest nation in the world with over 30 per cent of New Zealand adults classified as obese.
Climbing up to win bronze in the obesity table is not something to be proud of and being overweight increases the risks of heart diseases, diabetes and many other cancers which are the leading causes of premature death and poor health.
With other nations moving towards food labelling, the question arises about whether New Zealand should follow suit. If we started sticking the calorie content of foods next to them in the cabinet would that help us to make healthier choices or would it just destroy the enjoyment we get from our afternoon frosted donut?
The Cochrane study reviewed the evidence from UK and US initiatives and found when calorie labels were added to menus or put next to food items in restaurants it did help consumers reduce the calorie intake of the food they bought.
The study participants ended up eating on average 8 to 12 per cent fewer calories per meal - which may not sound like much, but other studies have shown even small daily changes such as cutting 100 calories a day can help people lose weight long-term.
The study also found no evidence of unintended consequences from the food labelling, meaning that sticking a calorie sticker on your extra-large cinema popcorn won't harm you and could potentially help you to pick the smaller box instead.
Removing junk food advertising aimed at children, and bringing in a sugar tax are commonly thrown around as suggestions to help reduce our childhood obesity epidemic, however perhaps a more simple and science-backed solution could involve easy to read calorie stickers instead.

San Francisco is allowing noncitizens to vote, but few will
SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco has become the largest U.S. city to give people in the country illegally and other noncitizens the right to vote in a local election, but the possibility of the Trump administration learning their identities appears to have kept people away: only 35 noncitizens have registered.
It is among a handful of cities nationwide to allow people who aren't citizens to vote, which is illegal in state and federal elections. In San Francisco, they can only participate in the school board race.
Voters in 2016 approved a measure allowing parents or guardians of a child in San Francisco schools to have a say in their children's education by helping elect school board representatives regardless of their immigration status. In the same election, Donald Trump won the presidency and has since cracked down on illegal immigration and ramped up rhetoric against those living in the U.S. illegally.
"We're in an unprecedented arena of animosity toward our immigrant community, and that has really stopped people from voting," said San Francisco Supervisor Sandra Fewer, a former member of the school board and a supporter of the noncitizen voting measure.
Noncitizens must provide their address and date of birth to register. The number who had was low as of Monday, but people can still sign up and vote on Election Day.
The Chinese American Voters Education Committee has been holding voter registration campaigns on college campuses, in low-income neighborhoods, at festivals and in Chinatown. Volunteers have not registered a single noncitizen, including a green-card holder, executive director David Lee said.
"People are really fearful because the Trump administration is perceived to be very anti-immigrant," Lee said. "There is legitimate concern that their information may be turned over to the federal government and that they may end up being detained or deported."
Lee and other community groups have been inviting prospective voters to register but also warning them of the risks. The city election department also has warnings on its registration form and on flyers saying voter information would be public and could be seen by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and other agencies.
San Francisco is a "sanctuary city" that otherwise limits cooperation with federal immigration officials. The city has not shied away from confronting the U.S. government on immigration, suing the Trump administration over sanctuary protections for people in the country illegally.
Those who championed the voting ordinance say it aims to give immigrants a greater voice at the school board, which approves curriculum, hires staff and manages a nearly $900 million annual budget.
The San Francisco School District does not keep a tally of its noncitizen parents or children but reports that 29 percent of its 54,000 students are English learners, with the majority listing Chinese or Spanish as their first language. At least 40,000 people in the city of 885,000 are in the country illegally, according to government estimates.
Harmeet Dhillon, a San Francisco attorney and committeewoman for the National Republican Committee, said allowing noncitizens to cast ballots devalues the rights of citizens.
"Voting is a sacred privilege and a sacred right of citizens. It should not be trivialized for political gain," she said.
Dhillon, who handles election law cases, said she is not surprised that only a few noncitizens have registered because voting could jeopardize their chances of attaining citizenship in the future.
"By voting people are taking a big legal risk, and for what return?" Dhillon asked.

Lufthansa posts solid 2012 figures
Christoph Franz, Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO of Deutsche Lufthansa, has presented a solid set of financial figures for 2012 and a positive interim assessment of the SCORE program to the shareholders attending the company's Annual General Meeting in Cologne. The airline earned revenue of €30.1bn, with an operating profit of €524m and over 103 million passengers transported. The net profit of €990m includes non-recurring items from the disposal of shares in Amadeus IT Holding.
Franz was unsatisfied with the figures, however. "Our company is facing serious challenges. Global aviation has changed. Our industry is under pressure – especially in Europe. Competition is getting tougher and tougher. This can also be seen by looking at our company figures. Which is why I won't even try to put a gloss on them: They are inadequate if we are serious about being profitable in the long term," said Franz at the Annual General Meeting.
Yet the Lufthansa Group wants to achieve sustainable profitability levels by 2015 at the latest. By then, the Group aims to use the SCORE program to boost its operating profit to €2.3bn. "Our industry is not only sensitive to crises, it's also a high-cost sector: kerosene, fees and staff costs, investments in fleet, cabin and ground products – these are all major, fixed-size cost items. Few changes can be made here. So we will need to change ourselves, if we want to survive into the future," stresses Franz. "We want to shape the industry before it shapes us." To achieve this goal, more than 2,500 ideas for improving profitability have been generated by Group employees since SCORE was launched. Such suggestions include reorganization of the Group's administrative processes, eliminating duplicate structures, improving fuel efficiency or the strategic restructuring of the intra-European business segment with the new Germanwings. Total SCORE contributions were €618m, with the Lufthansa Group easily surpassing 2012's budgeted figure of €280m.
And yet the Lufthansa Group was still unable to improve profitability last year: "Numerous negative factors – including the high price for kerosene, which drove up expenses by some €1.1bn – ate away at the SCORE successes. And yet without SCORE, we would have posted a negative result in 2012," said Franz.
This is one reason why a freeze on dividends has been recommended to the company's shareholders for the previous financial year: "Following the persistent decline in operating result our company has experienced in recent years, we have recommended not to pay a dividend to bolster our balance sheet and further strengthen the financial stability of your company," explained Franz. He was keen to stress, however: "Once we have achieved a sustained reversal of this earnings trend, we will – as before – reinstate dividend payments to our shareholders. That is our objective and that is our promise." According to Franz, the Members of the Executive Board themselves will make a contribution to the sustainability of the Lufthansa Group as well. For the duration of the SCORE program they have agreed to a salary reduction of five per cent of their base pay.
Although Franz states that 2013 and 2014 will be decisive for the successful implementation of SCORE activities and that their impact on profit will largely be visible only from 2013 onwards, there were signs of more positive business development in the first quarter of the current year. Franz: "Demand in passenger business is following a satisfactory trend. SCORE is on track. Overall, first-quarter earnings for the Lufthansa Group are stable – despite restructuring costs. This gives us cause for optimism."
For Franz, the goals for the future are clear. The Group aims to expand its leading position in the market, enhance its enterprise value in the long term and further improve customer satisfaction – in short, to become the best Lufthansa in the company's history. "We are a good team," said the CEO: "We have great employees who give all that is asked from them and more. With their ideas, our SCORE program has really come a long way. It also shows creativity and the will to become part of change, part of driving it forward. They deserve the highest praise and my heartfelt thanks for everything that they have achieved last year."

Superfake/The Parley by Superflex at Lunds konsthall in Sweden
SUPERFLEX's exhibition Superfake/The Parley, specially produced for Lunds konsthall, originated in a presentation earlier this year at the Arizona State University Art Museum in Tempe, Arizona. It was based on the discovery that one of the museum's key works, the painting Pioneer and the Indian (1903) by the famous American artist Frederic Remington, was a fake, and on the wide-ranging political and economic consequences of this disclosure.
The painting depicts a peace offering before a meeting between two men on horseback, who here represent the native population and those more recently arrived. It is an image of a mythical and fictionalised Wild West, a historical motif that has been endlessly copied and reproduced. Yet today's spectator is sure to pick up its problematic undertone: the Old West as a constantly encroaching territorial power. Remington's depictions of "Indians and Cowboys" are so well known and so widespread that they have helped shape the perception of the great American West throughout the world.
The exhibition at Lunds konsthall is specifically spun around this painting's destiny of having been degraded to the status of fake copy and how the well-known American vision of history the painting represents may be transferred to a Swedish context. Swedes migrated in great numbers to the United States a hundred years ago, but what is their relation to American culture today? What is the problematic around this? Which migrations do people in Sweden experience today? How does Sweden address issues of national belonging and identity? How does it define authenticity and value?
Such complex questions around identity, provenience and authenticity are asked insightfully, in-depth by SUPERFLEX, and with the warmth and specific humour that we have come to associate with them. The group consists of Jakob Fenger, Rasmus Nielsen and Bjørnstjerne Christiansen. It was founded in 1993 in Copenhagen and has subsequently enjoyed considerable international attention. SUPERFLEX work consistently with issues related to the economy, democratic principles and self-organisation. The main ambition is to visualise the problems of economic imbalance, but also to indicate possible solutions. SUPERFLEX have, for instance, developed alternative methods for producing energy: a bio-gas system that has been realised in several countries across the globe.

The current Real Estate market (as well as the share market) will prove to be another shining example of why the rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer.
Throughout history it has been a truism that the riskier the venture, the higher the return.
Lessons can be drawn from history from the Spanish Conquistadors chasing gold and silver in South America to indentured workers promised land in America.
That is why the returns from depositing cash in the bank will always be less than other forms of investing. The other enemy of cash deposits is inflation (Do you understand the rule of 72?).
By far the majority of people fail to understand that doing what appears to be the safe thing and turning assets into cash when prices are down, increases greatly the risk that they will miss out when those assets rise again in value. (Remember cash ONLY depreciates through inflation, it can never be worth more than the face value deposited).
Again, historically, people have demonstrated time and again that they suffer from a herd mentality. The reason is fear.
I encourage you to separate yourself from the herd.
The first thing you need to understand is the difference between investing and speculating.
Just ask yourself if you believe that BHP Billiton or one of the big four Australian banks actually lost as much as 4% or more of their true value in a single day during the recent herd panic on the stock exchange.
Another reason to acquire real estate is that it doesn't lose 4% of it's value in a single day and has always increased in value. The reason is that it is a finite resource. In other words, "Get into Real Estate son, they're not making any more of it".

Snacks that are under 100 calories
New guidelines advise limiting children's snacks to two a day, each under 100 calories. Here are some ideas for easy, homemade snacks the kids will love too.
Figures from Public Health England show that the average primary school child could be consuming a whopping three times more added sugar than recommended daily limits, with the average child eating at least three sugar-laden items a day. In response, the NHS's Change4Life campaign wants parents to limit snacks to a maximum of two a day that contain no more than 100 calories each (not including fruit and vegetables).
Plain rice crackers, carrot sticks, cubes of cheese or a piece of fruit are good choices for little ones if they need a quick bite on the move. For lunchboxes and after-school snacks, try these 10 snack ideas that are lower in sugar and under 100 calories.
1. Fruity sundae
This pot of yogurt swirled with mashed strawberries and topped with mixed berries is portable and packs a punch for both presentation and nutrition. Pack in Tupperware or a recycled screw-top jar and you'll be cutting down on plastic yogurt pot waste, too. (77 calories, 8g sugars)
2. Sweet potato crisps
With just two ingredients – a sweet potato and olive oil – these baked crisps couldn't be simpler. Why spend money on processed packets of crisps when you can make your own in half an hour? (70 calories, 6g sugars)
3. Rainbow fruit skewers
Full of colour and nothing but fresh fruit, these vitamin-packed skewers lend lunchboxes a bit of rainbow cheer. Kids like helping assemble them, too, and you can vary the colours and fruit varieties you use. (59 calories, 12g sugars)
4. Almond butter
Nut butter spread on a rice cake, or on a slice of apple, provides a brilliant energy-boosting snack. Our homemade alternative to peanut butter (using almonds) is a cinch to make, too. (93 calories per tbsp excluding rice cake and apple, 1g sugars)
5. Smoked salmon & avocado sushi
Kids can help assemble these little bite-sized rolls, perfect for lunchboxes or a quick transportable snack. There's no sugar in them and the combination of salmon and avocado provides a range of valuable nutrients. (49 calories per roll, 0g sugars)
6. Instant frozen berry yogurt
Three ingredients and two minutes is all you need to whip up this fruit-filled alternative to ice cream. Keep packs of berries in your freezer and you can have it in your kids' hands in the time it would take to walk to the ice cream van for a 99p cone. (70 calories, 10g sugars)
7. Cheese wheatmeal biscuits
Our quick-cook biscuits combine wholemeal flour with oatmeal and grated cheddar for a savoury bite that's perfect for lunchboxes. Cut into your kids' favourite shapes or just roll into balls and flatten for a really simple way to bake. (90 calories per serving, 0.2g sugars)
8. Almond, raisin & popcorn trail mix
Give plain popcorn more nutritional oomph with this version that adds dried fruit and nuts to the mix and comes in at just a whisper under 100 calories. Easy to store and even easier to make. (99 calories, 6g sugars)

Orijen Dog Food: Where to Buy This Popular Dog Food!Reading Time: 5 minutes
Struggling to find the ultimate healthy gourmet creation for your prized pooch? Enter Orijen dog food – a uniquely complete and nutritious whole pet food brand that is right up to the task!
The makers of Orijen pet food, Champion Pet Foods, are Canadian Pet Food knights in shining armor. They have been responsible for thousands of pups growing into stunning adult dogs, thanks to their unparalleled quality formulas.
Unlike some other dog food brands with questionable ingredients and suppliers (think nasty off-cuts and reject meats from the factory floor), Alberta-based Canadian company Champion Pet Food has been producing pet food from ethically sourced, free-range ingredients from local suppliers since 1975.
Their pioneering focus on biologically appropriate foods has also led to the hottest new trend in the dog food market. Foods that replicate the traditional composition of our once wild pal's natural diets are now all the rage – Champion is largely responsible for this.
And seriously – as the most-awarded pet food brand in the market, they must be doing something right!
Here we delve right into why Orijen dog food could be the perfect choice to keep your doggo healthy and happy!
This is for No Average Doggo Meal: Where to Buy Orijen Dog Food!
Pet owners rejoice – there is a perfect Orijen food for your pup whatever stage of their life they are at! Here is the lowdown of the different varieties offered.
Orijen Original
Orijen Original is the perfect all-rounder. Whether you own a large breed or a small breed, Orijen Original is suitable for your pet.

Orijen fish dog food is a good option for fussy eaters who prefer fish flavors. Suitable for all life stages.
Orijen Tundra
Orijen Tundra provides a wide range of game meats in a convenient fresh kibble. Perfect for medium to larger breed dogs with natural hunting instincts, it includes ingredients like goat, wild boar, venison, trout, and duck. This food is suitable for dogs at all life stages.
Orijen Regional Red
Orijen Regional Red is a combination of selected ingredients such as beef, wild boar, bison, lamb, pork and pilchard. The range of ingredients makes it an excellent source of vitamins and minerals for your dog. This means saving on unnecessarily costly and ineffective supplements. Suitable for dogs at all life stages, and a great option for those worried about meeting their dog's nutritional needs.
Orijen Adult Dog
Orijen Adult Dog food is part of Orijen's freeze-dried offerings. This range is not cooked at all, helping even more nutrients from the wholesome fresh and raw ingredients stay intact. By freeze drying, only the water is extracted from the food, leaving fresh meat goodness intact. Orijen adult contains poultry, fish and egg. An excellent concentrated source of nature-identical nutrients.
Orijen Senior
Orijen Senior is ideal for our older four-legged friends. The senior-specific formulation provides a high level of protein for sustaining lean muscle mass while limiting unnecessary calories. The perfect pet food for your sweet old pal in their twilight years.
Champion Pet Foods: The Makers of Orijen Dog Food Know What They're Doing!
Orijen (Latin for 'origin') dog food is produced by the highly respected Champion Pet Food brand. The company is known worldwide as being the most awarded brand for dog food.
Champion has redefined the pet food world, using whole food ingredients and a touch of science to create optimum products for keeping dogs well-nourished and healthy through diet.
As we humans know, diet is absolutely crucial to overall well-being. Obviously, the same concept applies to our furry friends, so the technology and research put into the development of all Champion Pet Foods is state of the art, using top animal nutritionists and scientists.
This focus on quality and balanced nutrition has led to a dog food rich in wholesome ingredients, such as fresh meat and wild-caught fish, to ensure our pet pals are full of health and vitality.
Champion's mission is to go back to basics. They develop dog foods based on the ancient natural dietary requirements of canines. They don't use excess human food and by-products, like highly processed miscellaneous grains and low-quality meats like other brands do.
Orijen pet food and Acana pet food are the two flagship brands produced by Champion Pet Foods.
Both have unique formulas to keep your pup at optimum health, with distinct differences, depending on the needs of your dog.
Orijen vs. Acana: What's the Difference?
So, how do Orijen pet food and Acana pet food, both from Champion Pet Foods, differ?
While both comprise the highest quality pet foods that money can buy, here are the specifics on each type of pet food.
Orijen pet food is the ultimate premium expression of Champion Pet Foods' commitment to their biologically appropriate food mission.
Orijen dog food is made with the finest fresh meats, incorporated using the latest technology to keep them as fresh as nature intended. The food has a meat content of 85% and is a complete food that mirrors the natural diet your dog has evolved to eat. Orijen is also the highest protein dog food that Champion offers, at 38-44% and is well-rounded including servings of fruits and vegetables. Importantly, NO Orijen pet food contains grains.
Acana dog food features a lower meat content. It does, however, follow Champion's bio-appropriate diet principles. Acana pet foods feature a combination of meats, fruits and vegetables and small amounts of grains.
The Idea Behind Orijen's Regional Dog Foods
The concept that drives Orijen dog food is that of providing dogs and cats with an evolution appropriate diet. This has led Orijen to develop a focus on regional dog food that meets the needs of your pet, naturally.
Orijen focuses on their underpinning idea of a biologically appropriate diet to develop all their foods. One of the key ways in which they achieve this is by using a patented WholePrey approach when including meat into their foods.
This means that Orijen rarely uses vitamin or mineral supplements in their food. Instead, they include meat, organs, and cartilage to mirror the nutritional richness that mother nature provides.
Orijen dog food does not include grains for a simple reason – canines have not evolved to eat carbohydrates in this form. While our cute little pups may not resemble their wolf ancestors so much anymore, the truth is that on the inside their teeth and digestive systems have changed very little!
This is why Orijen's biologically appropriate approach is so important. In a world full of 'McDonald's' pet foods, they are serving the equivalent of premium grass-fed organic steaks to our deserving doggos!
In a League of its Own: What Sets This Brand Apart?
Orijen products set themselves apart from the pack due to the unparalleled protein and whole meat content in their foods. Not only is Orijen a high-quality dog food that is scientifically backed, but a lot of thought goes into making the kibble taste delicious for your dog too. Your dog won't even notice its new healthy diet and let's be real, isn't that what we all want in life?
A Close Look at the Incredible Ingredients Used in Orijen Kibble!
Not only is Orijen's formula innovative, but the way it sources its ingredients makes it a leader in using ethically sourced, quality ingredients in the pet food industry.
Some incredible fresh regional ingredients that go into making Orijen dog food include fresh Angus beef, wild boar, bison, free-range turkey, fresh non-GMO vegetables and sustainably caught wild fish.
No grains are used in this kibble, making the food high in protein and healthy.
All the meat that is used in Orijen dog food is certified as fit for human consumption and is ultra fresh. The delicious flavors that your dog can't get enough of? Of course, they come from nature too.
Fresh ingredients are freeze-dried and natural flavors extracted from them. These are added to the formula, ramping up delicious pure tastes straight from mother nature herself.
Orijen Cat & Kitten Food!
Dogs are not the only ones who can benefit from Orijen pet food. Dogs and cats both have options in the brand, with Orijen tailoring foods for each.
Orijen Cat and Kitten Food is also high in protein and perfect for the dietary needs of cats and kittens.

App Recommendation: Boost 2
Last week I downloaded this app, primarily because it was free for a limited time. Once I opened it, I was hooked.
It's a very simple game with no tapping or swiping required. The only thing you have to do is tilt the phone to move, as you're essentially "driving." The object of the game is to avoid any cubes in your way and accumulate as many points as possible by lasting longer in the game.
You'll be warned when a cube is coming your way by seeing a white row turn to a different color. Basically, you want to be on a white surface for as much as possible and not touch any cubes. You can also collect extra boost by passing over arrows that appear. The benefit of collecting these boosts is that if you hit a cube, then you don't lose the game just yet; boosts are like lifelines. If you hit a cube without any boost, then the game is over.
The "driving range" changes, as the in-closed tube eventually starts to slowly open and closes out, it later closes in again. If you last long enough in the game, this process will continue to occur.
There are different game modes: in time trial you race against a one-minute clock, in classic you race for as long as possible, and there's also multiplayer and survival mode (I have yet to try both).
It's available in the iTunes Store for $0.99 and in the Android Market for $1.99. And, if you like this game, you might also like Cube Runner.
How The Heck Does Group Texting Work?
When a group text message is sent out, it's my understanding that everyone in that group can see the other recipients' phone numbers and get the subsequent replies that are sent. Or can they? Cue suspenseful music…
Something as simple as a text becomes very complicated when you decide to send it to a group of people. Part of that complication has to do with the phone operating software (Android, Blackberry OS, iOS, Windows, etc.), phone types and brand (smart and non-smart phones; Apple, HTC, Motorola, Samsung, etc.), and even the phone carrier (AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile), as each combination of these three will handle and display the text information differently.
I know that on an iPhone (my phone model) all of the recipients show at the top. But I wonder if this is the case for non-iPhone users since most of the time when someone other than the sender gets my reply, they don't usually make the connection and will ask me "Who is this?" Also, I personally don't always get the replies from everyone when they respond to the group text message. Unless they're not replying? Though, that seems highly unlikely.
Sometimes it's convenient to send a group text, say, if you want to plan a get together with friends or want to share the exact same piece of information with multiple people. But consider the following:
- Arrange your social groups.
You have your core group of friends, your coworkers, your classmates, your family members, your whatever. Depending on the topic you want to text about, you should know which group of people needs to hear what, and in which manner. You probably wouldn't use the same words/phrases/etc. with each of these groups.
- Do not group people who don't know each other or don't like each other.
This is to avoid any tense situations or any like the ones from my picture above. In some cases, someone might reply with something that not everyone else will tolerate or find nice. In other cases, someone might not respond to the text if they know who else might be getting it.
- Start a new message.
If you find yourself receiving a group text and you don't recognize any of the numbers included, then simply start a new message with just the original sender to avoid any confusion.
Group texting is appealing in theory, but really it's not all that much more efficient than one-on-one texting, especially if everyone has different phone models, operating software, and carriers. I don't understand how it all works, so I just find it safer not to do it!

The Land Rover customers are a tad luckier than the Land Rover customers around the globe, because they received the commercial version of Land Rover Discovery 3 (LR3) first.
Right from the time of its launch the Land Rover Discovery 3 has established a class-leading span of potential and has accumulated awards from all over the automotive world. Seeing the immense success of this version of vehicle, the Land Rover Discovery 3 now has been engineered with the support from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) as a N1 Light Commercial 4×4. The commercial version of the Land Rover Discovery 3 will be immensely beneficial for the business users, as they will therefore get a chance to take the Benefit in complete VAT regain allied with Light Commercial Vehicles and Kind tax.
The commercial version of Land Rover Discovery will be available in two versions: the Discovery 3 XS Commercial and the Discovery 3 Commercial. The standard features for the vehicle includes 2130 ltr of load space having a complete length phenolic floor, two-piece bulkhead, privacy glass, Terrain Response and four corner air suspension.
Speaking at the launch, the Managing Director of Land Rover told that the "Ever since the Land Rover Discovery 3 was launched in the market, the dealers have been receiving a wide number of requests for its commercial derivative. As a matter of fact of the consumers actually brought the standard models of the vehicle and then converted those models into commercial models on their own".
The introduction of Land Rover Discovery 3 commercial version means that for the very first time, buyers will be able to purchase a Land Rover approved Discovery 3 commercial vehicle, which will be benefiting them with immense levels of handling, ride, equipment and comfort that is offered by the standard Discovery 3. We also believe that the Land Rover Discovery 3's commercial version will further redefine the 4×4 commercial segment of automotive world.

Bar-Bee to release new single
Love You Any still dominating
Singer Bar-Bee is at it again, this time she has decided to do a cover of the Karyn White's classic, Can I Stay With You and from all indications she has really done justice to it.
With the riddim built by Dean Fraser the R&B single mixed to the sweet reggae beat will definitely prove easy on the ears for Bar-Bee's fans.
The video for the single is expected to be shot in March and is expected to be ready to match the official release of the single.
Incidentally Bar-Bee's red hot single Love You Anyway is still maintaining a dominant presence on the charts. On the Hype TV Top 20 Singles Chart and New York Chart it's sitting pretty in the #3 position, while the video for the song is in that same slot on CVM's Hitlist video chart.
In the meantime Bar-bee will be focusing on stepping up her game for the New Year as she is determined to make this the year she take her career to another level.

Now apart from my last post on the summer fresh and easy umami chickpea sandwiches, the bulk of 2015 has been written up as sweet posts, including Momofuku's cinnamon brown butter bun pie, amarula spiked chocolate pudding pots and coconut brown butter cookies with the exception of my Valentine's Day inspired heart shaped champagne and truffle risotto. Time to give you a more balanced approach to cooking! Today I have for you an absolute stunner – Sweet Potato salad with spring onion and goats cheese. This stunner has been adapted from Ottolenghi's arsenal of glorious recipes. Now as you may recall, I've succeeded at emulating Ottolenghi's sweet potato cakes, which I still fantasise and salivate over.
There's enough potato in this significant salad to serve as a meal in itself for 4-5 people, or as a part of a larger gathering of food, for 8-10 people. But I would definitely size it down and serve it to myself for a gratifying and fire-crackingly flavourful lunch or dinner – nutritiously comprising of gluten and grain free carbs along with a handful of vegetables and sprinkling of protein. And my most important food group – spice!
The bulk of the work is done by the beautiful marriage of the ingredients – the perfectly golden baked sweet potatoes make a substantial base to the salad, and the softened and aromatic spring onions and birds eye chilli add exceptional flavour. Topped with crumbed goats cheese and a squeeze of balsamic glaze, makes this one hell of a salad! Edible flowers to crown the salad won't hurt either, making the earthy and humble ingredients look a little sophisticated and pretty.
This salad combines all the flavours of happiness: the sweet creaminess of the potato, the earthiness of the sautéed green onion, the acidity and sharpness of the balsamic vinegar – and finally the savoury sprinkling of the goats cheese. Divinity. In its un-adultered version, the salad calls for fresh wedges of fig as well, but to be honest, we forgot to use it! So the second time, I added the figs on top, as stipulated.
The verdict?
I prefer the version without the figs!
I don't know if it is because I am (instantly) too attached to the flavour that was created in the first rendition, but I just prefer it. Even texturally, I prefer the salad without the mushy grainy fig. Not that I don't think it works well – its just a personal preference! So there you have it, my adaptation of the Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Spring Onion and Goats Cheese.
[My fingers are literally itching to make it again!]
This salad too was part of my Easter Sunday girls lunch (you'll notice a nonchalant hot cross bun somewhere up the the pictures :)), which comprised of: mango salsa served with baked nacho chips, umami chickpea open face sandwiches, beet burger patties and SS's new favourite spinach and avocado salad with a citrus honey mustard vinaigrette, followed up by miniature versions of my beautiful salted caramel and chocolate ganache almond shortcrust tart. A lovely Sunday spread, indeed.
- 4 small sweet potatoes (1 kg in total)
- 5 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbs balsamic glaze
- 12 spring onions, halved lengthwise and cut into 1 1/2-in / 4cm segments
- 2 red birds eye chillies, finely chopped
- 100 gm goat's cheese (preferably the crumbly variety)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 240°C.
- Wash the sweet potatoes, halve them lengthwise, and then cut each half again similarly into 3 long wedges. Toss with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt, and some black pepper. Spread the wedges out, skin side down, on a baking sheet and cook for about 25 minutes, until soft and slightly burnished - but not mushy. Remove from the oven and leave to cool down.
- Arrange the sweet potatoes on a serving platter. Heat the remaining oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the green onions and chile. Fry for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring often to make sure not to burn the chile.
- Spoon the oil, onions, and chile over the sweet potatoes. Then drizzle over the balsamic reduction.
- Crumble the cheese over the top and decorate randomly with edible flowers.
- Serve at room temperature.
- If you don't have balsamic glaze at home, go buy some. Seriously! But in the god awful event you don't find any, you will need 40 ml balsamic vinegar (you can use a commercial rather than a premium aged grade) with 1 1/2 tbsp caster sugar.
- To make the balsamic reduction, place the balsamic vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then decrease the heat and simmer for 2 to 4 minutes, until it thickens. Be sure to remove the pan from the heat when the vinegar is still runnier than honey; it will continue to thicken as it cools. Stir in a drop of water before serving if it does become too thick to drizzle.

GIVE-A-DAY helps malnourished Indian children fill their tummies
A re-routing of around 15% of GIVE-A-DAY funds to assist the government of Rajasthan in its fight against malnutrition has paid dividends for 5,000 children. Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) helped the government implement the pilot phase of the project – and it is now being rolled out across the state.
It is not an easy burden for a girl less than 10 years old to carry. But Tara used to carry her 18 months old younger brother, Lakshman, around the small village, Jogiyon ka Guda, in Western Rajahstan every day asking for handouts. Their father is struggling with alcohol abuse and the mother has to deal with depression so if Lakshman were to eat the responsibility was Tara's. In early 2016 Lakshman were enrolled in the 'Positive and Optimum Care of Children through a Social Household Approach for Nutrition' (POSHAN) initiative.
GIVE-A-DAY funds 50% of pilot project targeting 10,000 malnourished children
POSHAN is a program led by the Government of Rajahstan and the National Health Mission and it is supported by GAIN, UNICEF and Action Contre la Faim (ACF).
It is the first government-led programme for the treatment of acutely malnourished children – and the pilot phase which targeted 10,000 children was funded in part (50%) by BESTSELLER and the GIVE-A-DAY donation that GAIN received in 2015.

Congo River
For centuries the Congo River has played a key role in trade, travel, and exploration in equatorial Africa. The Congo and its many tributaries form the largest system of navigable waterways in Africa.
For local peoples, the river is a vital highway of commerce and communication. The Congo flows for 2,900 miles in a great curve through the center of Africa. It is the world's second most powerful river (after the Amazon in South America), emptying 10 million gallons of water each second into the Atlantic Ocean. Together with its many tributaries, it drains a vast area that covers most of the nations of Democratic Republic of Congo, Republic of Congo, and the CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC. It also drains parts of ZAMBIA, ANGOLA, and TANZANIA. Much of the river lies within the cuvette centrale, a vast, basinlike depression in the plateau of equatorial Africa. The Congo's main tributaries include the Aruwimi, Ubangi, Lulonga, Tshuapa, Sangha, and Kasai Rivers.
The Congo is called the Lualaba at its source in the savannas near the southeastern corner of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It flows north over many falls and rapids to Wagenia Falls, not far from the city of Kisangani in the heart of the rain forest. Below Wagenia Falls the river's name changes to Congo. Dotted with countless islands, it follows a lazy curve west and then south through the rain forest. In some places the river is more than 9 miles wide, and during periods of high water it spills over its low banks onto wide floodplains on either side. Below the city of Liranga, the river forms the border between the two Congo nations.
At Tchumbiri, the river leaves the swampy flatlands of the cuvette centrale and begins carving a path to the ocean through the Teke Plateau and the Crystal Mountains. It narrows and flows rapidly between steep banks, then widens again to form Malebo Pool, also called Stanley Pool.
On either side of the pool stand the two capital cities, KINSHASA (The Democratic Republic of Congo) and BRAZZAVILLE (the Republic of Congo). Between Kinshasa and Matadi, the Congo drops steeply, passing over 32 waterfalls. This section of the river could be the largest source of hydroelectric power in the world, although little has yet been done to harness that power. For its final 150 miles, from Matadi to the Atlantic coast, the river is navigable by oceangoing ships.
The Congo's waterfalls and rapids kept Europeans out of the central basin during the years of the SLAVE TRADE. So little was known of the river that as late as the 1800s Europeans thought that its mouth might be the mouth of the Niger River, far to the north. The upper Congo was familiar, however, to African fishers and traders, who traveled the river in very long dugout canoes with as many as 60 or 70 paddlers.
France and Belgium sought control of the Congo River while they were establishing their colonies in equatorial Africa. The European scramble to colonize the area was started by Henry Morton STANLEY, the first white explorer to travel most of the river's length. Early colonists transported steamboats piece by piece from the river's estuary to Stanley Pool. Once assembled, the boats were used to control commerce and impose colonial rule on the central stretch of the Congo. Later, railroads carried people and goods from the coast to the steamboat networks.
After the nations of equatorial Africa achieved independence in the mid-1900s, Africans reclaimed control of the Congo waterway network. At first, African fishermen began to gain power by working on the steamships that traveled the river or by carrying on trade from their own dugout canoes. Those early African traders often had to travel at night to avoid colonial river patrols. Since then, riverboats and the barges they pull have become floating marketplaces, sometimes even described as floating cities. For a large part of equatorial Africa, the Congo River remains the principal route of trade and travel. Local people often call it simply Ebale (the river).

North Carolina Can't Afford To Miss The Opportunity To Expand Health Care Access
New Council of Economic Advisers Report Shows Cost To NC Over Failure To Expand Medicaid
RALEIGH, NC -- On Wednesday, the White House Council of Economic Advisers released a new report detailing the economic and health care costs toNorth Carolina caused by the state legislature and Gov. Pat McCrory's decision to put politics over people by refusing to expand health care access to over 375,000 people who fall into the coverage gap.
The report, entitled "Missed Opportunities: The Consequences of State Decisions Not to Expand Medicaid" finds that states which expanded Medicaid are seeing economic and health benefits in billions of dollars coming into their economy, reduced out of pocket health care expenses for their citizens and a healthier population. But due to the political priorities of Gov. McCrory and Republican lawmakers, North Carolina is seeing just the opposite.
"Thanks to lawmakers' foolish decision to refuse the Medicaid expansion, North Carolinians are getting fewer cancer screenings, mammograms and doctor visits, and paying more for the care they do receive," said Gerrick Brenner, Executive Director of Progress North Carolina. "Our state is throwing away new jobs and sending our tax dollars to states who are expanding instead of investing them back here at home. The CEA report provides even more evidence that expanding Medicaid comes with significant benefits we can't afford to turn down."
In addition to the public health improvements caused by expanding Medicaid, the report also finds that North Carolina would gain over 40,000 new jobs and $7 billion in Gross Domestic Product through 2017. "By refusing the expansion, Gov. McCrory and state lawmakers are foolishly sending that economic activity to other states," added Brenner. "If improving North Carolina's economy is really a priority for our leaders, here's a great way to do it with little to no impact on state finances."
Key findings from the report include that if North Carolina expanded Medicaid...
14,000 more women between the ages of 50-64 would receive mammograms
23,000 more women would receive pap smears
30,000 fewer people will have untreated depression
17,000 fewer people will face catastrophic out-of-pocket Medicaid expenses per year
North Carolina will receive $9.5 billion in federal support through 2016
40,000 more jobs in North Carolina through 2017
An increase of over $7 billion in total economic activity through 2017
Read the full report here: http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/docs/missed_opportunities_medicaid.pdf
Shereese TuckerThis is not surprising. On average, states not expanding Medicaid will loose an est. 2 billion dollars. However, the message lawmakers are spewing to the public is the cost of expansion. For example, in Florida it would cost the tax payers 1.1 billion to expand Medicaid. However, it will cost 5.5 billion not to expand Medicaid. The decision not to expand is costing the tax payers a net of 4.4 billion. Add to this the lost of new revenue, new jobs, and help from the feds, and Floridians are really missing out on serious economic growth. Other states who have opted out are seeing similar, if not larger deficits. State lawmakers should make the decision not to play politics with the health of state citizens.
barbara balmerJust another example of legislators not being concerned about anybody but their own; working class and poor citizens don't matter. I certainly hope they all take that into consideration when election time comes

Lukasz Fabianski insists he is ready to face Chelsea after impressing between the sticks for Arsenal on Tuesday night.
The goalkeeper, who had earned the nickname 'Flappyhandski' from some Gunners fans following a string of errors, answered his critics with two late saves, one from a penalty, as the Gunners saw off Partizan Belgrade 3-1 in UEFA Champions League action.
Since his arrival at the Emirates in 2007, Polish keeper Fabianski has taken a backseat to regular No.1 Manuel Almunia, who is himself under the spotlight following his below-par display in the shock home Premier League defeat to West Brom last weekend.
Almunia is doubtful for Sunday's trip to Stamford Bridge due to an elbow injury, meaning Fabianski could be set to keep the gloves this weekend.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger, who has always backed Fabianski, was delighted with the Pole's performance in Serbia on Tuesday.
And the shot-stopper is keen to keep repaying the manager's faith, starting with this weekend's London derby.
"Overall, I am pleased with my performance," said Fabianski.
"I am not talking about just saves, but reading the game, coming for crosses or playing with my feet.
"Every aspect of goalkeeping is important for me, so I am pleased with my performance in general."
He added: "I am ready to play against Chelsea. I was always ready, so we will see.
"I was never really bothered by all the things said. I was always trying to focus on my job and my work.
"That is what I was always doing and that why I am grounded."
Fabianski feels the Gunners can face their local rivals with renewed confidence on Sunday following their Stadion FK Partisan triumph.
"We are playing really well this season," he said.
"The beginning was really good for us. There was a big shock on Saturday when we lost, but I think you could see against Partizan that we had learned some things from Saturday.
"The performance was much better so we are looking forward to the Chelsea game.
"It is going to be an exciting one to watch, and we are in good condition."

Six jailed for Shanghai meat scandal
SHANGHAI • A Chinese court has jailed six employees of a US company which supplied fast-food outlets including KFC and McDonald's with substandard meat in a high-profile scandal.
Ten employees of OSI Group were yesterday convicted of packaging out-of-date and substandard meat as new products, a court in Shanghai said on an official social media account. Four received suspended sentences.
The scandal came to light in 2014 when a Shanghai television station showed workers on the production line scooping meat off the floor and putting it back into processing machinery.
Taiwan elects first DPP Speaker
TAIPEI • Taiwan's Parliament yesterday elected its first Speaker from the China-sceptic Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) after the party triumphed in elections last month.
Mr Su Chia-chuan immediately relinquished his party titles after his election, as a first step towards parliamentary reform.
DPP chairman Tsai Ing-wen will on May 20 become the island's first female president after voters turned their backs on closer China ties under the Beijing-friendly Kuomintang party.
Delhi in garbage crisis as strike continues
NEW DELHI • Rubbish piled up on New Delhi's streets yesterday as refuse collectors vowed to push ahead with a nearly week-long strike over unpaid salaries, the latest crisis to hit the world's most polluted city.
Already reeling from dangerously high levels of toxic smog, the Indian capital is now grappling with uncollected garbage that has been mounting in parts of the city since Jan 27.
The Delhi government has blamed the city's three municipal corporations, controlled by its arch rival, the Bharatiya Janata Party, which rules at the national level, for the crisis.
China arrests fourth Japanese for spying
TOKYO • Japan yesterday denied that it carries out espionage activities abroad as it announced that Chinese authorities have formally arrested a fourth Japanese citizen on suspicion of spying. Few details have been released about the detained Japanese.
Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga previously announced that three are men and one is a woman. All were apprehended last year, with news of the formal arrests coming in stages.

Nicola Jane Philipps/Royal Collection Trust//PA Wire
A new portrait of Queen Elizabeth II has been unveiled.
An oil painting, done by artist Nicky Philipps, has gone on display at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, which is the Queen's official royal residence in Scotland. In the portrait, the royal monarch can be seen wearing the ceremonial robes and collar of the Order of the Thistle. The background of the painting shows a view of Salisbury Crags, which are a series of cliffs in nearby Holyrood Park.
If you're visiting the Palace of Holyroodhouse, you will be able to see the portrait hanging up in the Royal Dining Room. The royal family still uses that specific room today for entertaining.

A case study is a thorough study of a situation in which a problem or a conflict is presented with facts and that conflict is discussed upon by people involved in the case study. Case study assignment is one of the toughest tasks that a student could get. You see it deals only with facts and there is no place for any irrelevant material in your case study. You need to present a problem through an extensive procedure and then you also have to solve that problem. This includes a lot of research, interviews and it demands a lot of time.Case studies are of 4 types. They can be exploratory ( investigative), illustrative ( descriptive), cumulative or critical. These types are so called because they deal with different audiences and different topics. Whatever your audience or topic is the procedure for writing down a case study is same for everyone.How to write a case study :Writing a case study is very simple if you get all the proper data. If you have irrelevant material which goes off the track then a case study become difficult. So make sure you get only the relevant data. Use only that which concerns you. And use only facts. Don't go into assumptions. Now to write a case study you can follow these simple steps:1. Create 4 sections of your case study which include : Introduction, background on why the case study was created, presentation of the case and the conclusion of the case. In the introduction you would simply state your problem. For example you are writing on a crime scene so in the introduction you would reveal the crime which has been done. After this you would give the background about the case study such as why it was conducted, where was it conducted and you could include photos or videos of the place just to make it more interesting. Then comes the presentation. In this include all your collected material including references, interviews, statistics, quotes or calculations. Finally the conclusion would give possible solutions. You can also just finish it off with a question but you must conclude it.2. Add references and appendices In your case study. References make your case study credible. And appendices are useful to make people understand certain legal or business terms which are not that familiar.3. Make additions and deletions in your text. Go through your case study section by section. Sometimes when you write it all down it may turn into something you were not expecting. In that case you need to add something up to keep it on track or you need to delete a few things. If you can't find a suitable place for a concept or a reference then add it up in the appendix.4. Edit and proofread your case study. Check for grammatical errors, spelling errors or any structural mistakes in the content. It is always better to have someone else check out your work because chances are that the other person might find out what you have overlooked.So with these 4 simple steps you can make a case study writing an easy procedure.

It's hard to believe the holiday shopping season is upon once again, since it was only a few weeks back that we were all marveling at the annual autumn color show known as fall foliage season. Like it or not, though, the time to start whittling away at the gift list has arrived.
In keeping with a tradition that I started more than two decades ago, I hereby present my annual list of new books appropriate for New Hampshire outdoor enthusiasts. The books are presented in no certain order, but be rest assured that all are on my personal Top 10 list for the 2010.
Forest Forensics by well-known Granite State ecologist Tom Wessels is an excellent new companion guide to the author's previously published book, Reading the Forested Landscape. Recently published by Countryman Press of Woodstock, Vt., Forest Forensics is essentially a field guide to the landscape of northern New England. Generously illustrated with dozens of full-color photographs, the book enables its users to identify past uses of land by examining the trees, soil, rocks, and stone walls.
In that same vein, Nature Guide to the Northern Forest by Peter J. Marchand is another great new guide for interpreting our forested landscape. Part field guide, part natural history narrative, this full-color field guide from the Appalachian Mountain Club helps users identify and understand the complex influences that shape the flora and fauna of northern New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine. It includes chapters on forest succession, plant communities, the changing seasons, and the impacts of climate change.
Another interesting and unique new guide published earlier this year is The Presidential Range: Its Geologic History and Plate Tectonics. Written by J. Dykstra Eusden and published by The Durand Press of Lyme, this guide examines the bedrock geology of Mount Washington and the Presidential Range and includes a spectacular full-color fold-out geologic map of the region. Now if geology isn't really your thing, this book and map might be a bit too technical in nature, but if you do have an interest in geology, and a fondness for New Hampshire's highest mountain range, you'll fall in love with book.
For the outdoor adventurer, there are a number of great new guides that have also been published in 2010. For hiking enthusiasts, I really like Lisa Densmore's Hiking the White Mountains, which describes in great detail more than three dozen of the best hikes in the Whites. These include hikes suitable for all ability levels. Despite the title, the book actually features descriptions to several New Hampshire peaks situated outside of the Whites. Among these are popular Mount Monadnock, Mounts Cardigan and Kearsarge in the central part of the state, and Smarts Mountain in the Upper Connecticut River valley. Meanwhile, classic White Mountain hikes covered in the book include the Franconia Ridge loop, remote Mount Carrigain, and Mount Willard at the head of Crawford Notch.
For trampers looking to go further afield, then check out 100 Classic Hikes in New England by Jeff Romano. Published by The Mountaineers, this guidebook includes hikes from each of the six New England states guide. What sets this guide apart from others are the full-color photos and topographical maps that accompany each of the hikes described in the book. As one veteran hiking guide author said to me recently, "This is the Cadillac of hiking guidebooks."
Two other guidebooks of note from this year are Best Backcountry Skiing in the Northeast by David Goodman and Quiet Water: New Hampshire and Vermont by John Hayes and Alex Wilson.
Best Backcountry Skiing in the Northeast, which was released earlier this fall by the Appalachian Mountain Club, describes 50 classic ski tours in upstate New York and northern New England. The ski tours range from day trips to multiday hut-to-hut adventures, and include such Mount Washington classics as Tuckerman Ravine, Burt and Ammonoosuc Ravines, and Gulf of Slides.
The new third edition of Quiet Water: New Hampshire and Vermont is an updated and revised canoe and kayak guide to the best ponds, lakes, and easy rivers in the Twin States. Close to 100 trips are described, including paddling adventures on Vermont's Lake Champlain and along the Connecticut River.
To round out my list for this year, here are a few titles geared more toward New Hampshire history buffs:
Logging Railroads of New Hampshire's North Country by Vermonter Bill Gove is the fourth in the author's continuing series of books chronicling the logging railroad era in New Hampshire's White Mountains and North Country. In this book he covers the history of a half dozen lines that operated primarily north of the great mountain notches. Like all his previous books, this one is full of great old photos of the loggers and trains that worked the woods more than a century ago.
Peaks and Paths: A Century of the Randolph Mountain Club by Judith Maddock Hudson was published in conjunction with RMC's current 100th anniversary year. In this beautifully done hardcover book, readers will learn the history behind the club's many paths and camps, read about the men and women who built many of the club's trails, and enjoy looking at more than 160 vintage photos and illustrations;
Extreme New England Weather by WMUR-TV meteorologist Josh Judge takes a look at some of the New England region's greatest weather events of the past, including the Hurricane of 1938, and the great floods of 1927 and 1936. A host of other well known New England area television meteorologists have also contributed to this book, which also features many historic photos, including two dozen color images.
Mike Dickerman is a longtime hiking enthusiast, award-winning columnist, author or co-author of nine books related to the White Mountains region of New Hampshire. He lives in Littleton.
