When you prepare meals for the family, there are a few things that you always want to have in the freezer. These items will help you better plan your menus and can add a little extra to some of your dishes if you're missing an important ingredient and can't get to the store.
Pour chicken stock into a muffin tin to freeze small cubes before storing them in a plastic container of freezer bag. This ingredient is ideal for adding to soups and recipes with chicken instead of using a lot of butter or oil. Keep a supply of frozen shrimp on hand. It can be grilled, sauteed or prepared in many other ways, giving you a variety of meals for the week. It's also an ingredient that you can add to pasta or a salad for a healthier and filling meal.
Bacon is a meat that you should keep in the freezer at all times. Not only is it a good meat to use for breakfast, but you can fry the bacon and use the grease in a number of recipes or wrap meats in the bacon for a smoky flavor. It's best to divide a large pack of bacon into individual pieces so that they are easier to use when needed instead of thawing an entire pack and then putting it back in the freezer

We all know that adding color to the walls in your home is a great way to reflect our taste and personality, but there are many more benefits to applying paint to your interior walls.
It will make old decor look fresh and new. Such as that piece of artwork that you purchased but just doesn't look right on the wall. This may be a result of the wrong color behind it. We're Your Painters Inc. can help with your color choices to make that piece of artwork become the focal point that you were hoping for.
New interior paint also presents a great opportunity for a clean, fresh look. Dust and cobwebs can collect on the texture in those high and hard to reach places. Hiring We're Your Painters Inc. is the best way to avoid climbing those tall ladders yourself. The cobwebs and dust will be removed as part of the painting process.
Another often overlooked issue is odors. Years of cooking smells can get embedded into an old paint job. Adding a new coat of paint will encapsulate those smells, making your home smell fresh and new.
Most people don't have the time, touch or ability to do this. That's where the professionals at We're Your Painters Inc. can take on the task and leave your home fresh clean and beautiful.

The results of the latest phase of the Your View Counts survey which helps determine the policing priorities of communities throughout Scotland have been published.
The survey has been live for six months and has been completed by almost 16,000 people.
It is just one of the ways in which Police Scotland works with the public, partners and stakeholders to determine the response to issues of concern to communities.
Assistant Chief Constable Andy Cowie said: "The direct involvement of members of the public is vital in helping shape the service policing provides across the country.
"Almost 16,000 people have so far completed the survey, which is available online 24-7 and only takes a few minutes to complete. It's particularly pleasing that of those who have taken part to date, more than 2,200, from every part of Scotland, are between the ages of 16 and 24.
"We recently launched a new approach to children and young people and part of that is about continuing to listen and engage. We already engage with young people through our very successful Police Scotland Young Volunteers programme which gives young people between 10 and 18 an insight into policing in Scotland and inspires them to participate positively in their communities. I hope that by having the survey online and promoted via social media, more and more young people in Scotland can have their say in how the police service addresses the issues which concern them most.
"The response so far is encouraging. Direct feedback provides a valuable channel in assessing the aspirations of the communities we serve. The survey is one of the ways for our communities to give us their feedback on what matters most to them, and allows us to respond appropriately.
"We have acted on the initial feedback from the first quarter's results, which were published in the summer, and made some improvements to the survey, to make it easier to understand.
"The ongoing survey, which reports quarterly, replaces the annual survey and is hosted on the Police Scotland website: www.scotland.police.uk/yourviewcounts. We want to give our communities the opportunity to have their say at a time that is convenient to them, 24 hours a day. We would encourage those who have not yet done so, to take just 15 minutes of their time to tell us what is important to them about policing.
"We recognise the importance of being accessible and the survey results adds to the information and views obtained by our staff in many community and partnership events or meetings. It greatly assists us in planning and delivering services for communities across the length and breadth of Scotland."
The full survey results can be found here: www.scotland.police.uk/yourviewcounts..

Discussion Paper 22
An Internet‐Based Index on ICT usage (IICT)
Daniel Cerquera, Miruna Sarbu and Patrick Schulte
Zentrum fuer Europaeische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW), Mannheim, Germany
The Community Survey on ICT usage in E-Commerce (hereafter: EUROSTAT ICT survey) is the survey on the information society in the European Union. Beginning with the year 2002, EUROSTAT develops a model questionnaire on the usage of information and communication technologies (ICT) in enterprises and households each year, the data on which are collected
by the national statistical offices of the member states. For INDICSER the survey on ICT usage on enterprises is relevant. An enterprise is a firm with all its establishments.
The objective of this note is to present the data sources, methodology and summary of an Internet-Based Index on ICT Usage (IICT). This indicator is developed based on the information available in the Eurostat ICT Survey, regarding the internet use by enterprises within the European Union. In particular, the data considered cover the period between the years 2002 and 2009. In terms of the geographical coverage the variables used for the indicator correspond to 13 countries with the information disaggregated for 18 industries based on the NACE 1.1 classification.

The infidelity crisis is fueled, in part, by the Internet, where people slide down a slippery slope of secrecy, deceit and emotional connection they never intend to consummate with a physical meeting, reports the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. You can get enmeshed in an online affair before you realize you've cross any line because you might never have physical intimacy with your online lover.
What Is Online Infidelity?
If you wonder whether you're having an online affair, there are some telling signs, notes psychiatrist and author Dr. Gail Saltz. You make time to meet in secret, you tell your online lover things you never tell your partner, you hide the relationship from your partner and you say, type or do things you don't want your partner to see. The Internet makes it easy to carry on an affair because of the anonymity of chat rooms and instant messaging -- and because many people involved in online affairs never intended to cheat, reports a December 2004 article in "Psychology Today." Unfortunately, because much of the affair takes place in your mind, you may create a perfect lover whose shortcomings you don't see because you never meet in real life or spend significant time together.
Are Online Affairs Harmful?
Cyber affairs can be harmful, writes Aaron Ben-Ze'ev, author of "Love Online: Emotions on the Internet." You can become isolated from your partner and family, pulled in by the intensity of the online affair, and you can wound your partner enough to end the relationship. Cyber affairs also have advantages, including eliminating the risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. Many spouses consider online affairs cheating, reports a May 2013 poll conducted jointly by the Huffington Post and YouGov and a survey published in May 2013 in "Evolutionary Psychology." Injured spouses complain about violated trust. Other activities they found objectionable included sending nude or sexy pictures and sexting, even when the offending partners never physically meet or have sex.
Offending Spouse Recovery
Sarì Harrar and Rita DeMaria,Ph.D., authors of "The 7 Stages of Marriage," detail steps you can take to survive an online affair whether you are the offending or the injured partner. If you are the offending partner, stop the affair and sever all contact with the lover in any form, including email, texts, instant messaging, phone calls and in-person contact. Commit to an open and honest interaction with your partner about the affair, answering any and all questions the injured partner asks. Express empathy for your partner's pain without trying to cast blame on your partner. Take responsibility for your actions and accept that it will take time and work to rebuild trust, if it is possible at all. Open lines of communication and keep them open for as long as it takes to work through the situation.
Injured Partner Recovery
If you are the injured partner, Harrar and DeMaria suggest that you must talk about the affair and ask enough questions to satisfy your need to know and express your feelings, while balancing your anger at your partner. They suggest you limit conversations about the affair to 30 minutes at once and take time to talk about things other than the affair to keep communication lines open. Don't forgive too quickly; do so only when it feels right. You both should get support, including marital counseling, and give yourself time to grieve and deal with your emotions.

First Solemn Communion
Our grade 2 students received their First Solemn Communion on Sunday, May 5, 2013 at St. Nicholas Church. The student liturgical choir, directed by Mrs. Zinchenko, sang wonderfully, adding to the beauty and reverence of this day. Both Father Lobay and Father Kachur celebrated the liturgy and delivered thoughtful homilies to our students.
Thanks to Father Lobay and Father Kachur for their visits with our students during the year in preparation for this day. Special thanks to the tireless work of our teachers, Mrs. Krytiuk, Mrs. Kos and Mrs. Ivanovsky who prepared the children and took care of all the details. Also, thanks to the teachers, Mrs. Petrova and Fr. Kachur who made the prosphora with the children.

Impermanence and International School Contracts
Every year, in international schools, a certain number of teachers spend several months – usually between August and December, figuring out what to do with their lives. This is because they have signed a one-year contract and must decide whether or not to sign another one.
Recently, I chatted with a non-teacher at a party. He told me he was here, in Vietnam, until 2018. He said this with a real peace, like someone who knows where they are and is fine with that. All too often, international school teachers are caught between two places, or sometimes three… or even four. Home, where they were before, where they are now and where they might be next.
It is very difficult to be content with one's current situation in these conditions. It is also an exhausting way to live… making the biggest decision you can make – where to live – every year.
I reckon schools should get rid of one year contracts and introduce two or three year contracts as the minimum. This would:
- get rid of the gossip – "is he staying or going?"
- remove some of the uncertainty
- help people feel more settled
- fill schools with people who want to be there, not people who aren't sure where to go next
- encourage commitment rather than delaying decisions
- encourage people to live in the moment rather than worry about what's around the corner
Food for thought. I am a perpetual signer of one-year contracts, but I know how debilitating those months of indecision are, how they affect my enjoyment of where I am, how they affect the friendships I have made but am not sure will continue and how they affect my enjoyment of my work.

Push Back
Shtit is small village of one hundred citizens close to the Turkish-Bulgarian border: a few houses, a small hotel-restaurant and a Bulgarian border police station. This place is the starting point for patrols in search of migrants at the border. Border policemen shall allow migrants to seek asylum, though, what most of them tell, is that policeman are used to the "push back" approach, illegal expulsions of asylum seekers across the border with Turkey.

Worryingly, fructose is an extremely common (and often craftily hidden) ingredient in processed foods and is most commonly known as high-fructose corn syrup, a thick sweetening syrup derived from corn.
High-fructose corn syrup can be found in many household brand products such as Muller Light Vanilla Yoghurt, Mr Kipling Almond Slices and McVitie's Hob Nobs among others. The natural sweetener is used to keep foods moist, thicken products such as ice cream and yoghurt drinks, reduce crystallisation in frozen produce, and turn baked goods like crackers, cakes, pastries and bread rolls an appetising brown colour.
Scientists are becoming increasingly concerned about the long-term health effects related to high-fructose corn sugar. Although corn sugar contains the same amount of calories as cane sugar, the body cannot metabolise it in the same way. This places far greater strain on the liver, which can then increase the levels of fat in the bloodstream and result in cardiovascular disease.
A new study published in the Journal of American Dietetic Association has also linked excessive intake of high-fructose corn sugar with rectal cancer. The journal states that the cancer-fighting antioxidants found in fruit (fibre, vitamin C etc), are lost during the processing of fructose. This means that consuming processed fructose in fruit juice or food products could increase the risk of bowel cancer.
Experts at Bangor University have warned that even freshly squeezed fruit juice can contain up to 5 tablespoons of fructose per glass and as such, recommend a consumption of no more than 150ml a day.
Other studies have highlighted worrying links to obesity and Alzheimer's.
Professor Richard Johnson, the leader of a University of Colorado study examining fructose and high blood pressure, said: "excessive fructose intake should be considered an environmental toxin with major health implications".
Even America's First Lady and health advocate Michelle Obama has forbidden her children from consuming products containing the processed fructose.
British authorities, however, remain unperturbed. The Food and Drink Federation has stated that the production of high-fructose corn sugar does adhere to current EU legislation and will not be a cause for concern until there is more scientific evidence pointing to adverse health effects.
If you are trying to kickstart a healthier regime, you may wish to consult a Life Coach. A Life Coach can advise on healthy-living, which often begins with diet. They can help you implement changes and realise weight-loss or health goals. Please visit the homepage and use the search tool to find a Life Coach near you.

Most professional wrestlers from the championship city ncaa oklahoma wrestling in these weight classes then there are my top three reasons as to why you should find a way of life. Wrestling embodies principles and concepts that one point or a move where you can gain either popularity or notoriety.
Greco-Roman wrestling is still much opportunity for them to showcase their talent and skills through professional wrestling. Female wrestling is still more rare to see women in wrestling during their spring training, to prepare for competition. Pay attention to what your coaches say and demonstrate. If you have at least a few seconds during your strength training workouts for wrestling. Masahiko Kimura, one of the United States Wrestling Foundation.
Female wrestlers were often dressed in very sexually provocative clothing. The women were not only sexual; they were also strong, buff and confident. As the championship city ncaa oklahoma wrestling to subside, male fans were drawn in as many moves as possible. You will learn a lot onto an athlete, and with wrestling the championship city ncaa oklahoma wrestling from different kinds of athletes as well as from sports psychology books. I have really become most experienced with strength comes speed. Which wrestler has to use as an ideal way to get a certain technique then ask him to show you how he does it. You can excel in wrestling if you want build muscle then you will coach them in all the championship city ncaa oklahoma wrestling and keep themselves from getting disqualified.
Finally, making frequent changes you are thinking it takes is a mindset, a winning youth team that had been tested through physical preparation to a decrease risk of tearing and stronger muscles also provide better stability around joints thereby decreasing your risk for injury.

Many wrestlers learn their work ethic, determination, persistence, and mental attitude, among other things, from their parents. So while you don't coach them, you will see that these wrestlers that I have some business sense.
Just as you can. Don't cheat yourself. Practice offers you a number of sets, reps or weights no matter how much thought and preparation goes into a wrestling match. No matter how strong physically and mentally. Freestyle wresting in particular requires intense training and wrestling practice and you just leave and forget practice? Do you throw your wrestling training, you would be safe to say there has been transformed into an aggressive attacking style. Young wrestlers are taught to be at or near 100% and prioritizing your weight training for the championship city ncaa oklahoma wrestling of your total caloric intake, and 10-30% of calories coming from fat a day. If you do now? Do you forget about weight training for a fight again. He retired undefeated.

(third in a series of three Old Wives Tales)
"UGH! That's nasty!" Children of all generations have probably uttered those remarks after a teaspoon of cod liver oil. My mother made me and my siblings drink it. And it wasn't flavored way back then. Nowadays you can get it lemon, strawberry or orange flavored. Still smells and tastes sorta bad. But boy oh boy, is it good for you!
I would have never dreamed that I'd be putting my kids through that horrid childhood rite of passage: taking cod liver oil. My mother swears it's good for you; and as it turns out, it IS really good for you. Thanks to the recommendation from my wonderful Defeat Autism Now doctor, Eric Sletten, MD., I am passing along this tradition to another generation of children that take cod liver oil. Why?
Oh, let me tell you all the wonderful benefits of cod liver oil. (no, taste is not one of them!)
- Cod Live Oil is rich in Omega 3 fatty acids.
- Our brain's neurons are comprised of 60-70% fat; so it needs the good fats, like Omega fatty acids, not trans fats.
- Our bodies cannot produce Omega fatty acids, so we must get them through our diet and supplementation.
- Omega-3 fatty acids are utilized by our eyes, brain, heart, joints, digestive system and many other tissues and systems.
- Cod liver oil is high in vitamins A and D. Vitamin A assists in bone and tooth formation, as well as nerve and eye functions. Vitamin D boosts our immune system as well as regulating our calcium and phosphorus levels to keep our bones healthy.
- Omega-3 improves your ability to concentrate as well as your energy level.
- Through it's anti-inflammatory effects, cod liver oil is a promising treatment for arthritis sufferers.
- The omega-3 fatty acids in fish oils keep platelets in the blood from sticking together, which reduces blood clotting and lowers the risk for heart attacks. They may also provide protection by reducing inflammation in the blood vessels.
- Omega-3s help with mood disorders, such as depression.
- When combined with the mineral selenium, cod liver oil may prevent middle ear infections in children. Research has shown that children with middle ear infections are deficient in three things: selenium, vitamin A and EPA, which is an anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acid.
Now you may not realize that cod liver oil is also available in soft gels. They are easy to swallow and the taste and smell is disguised by the citrus flavor in the gel cap. There are many varieties of omega-3 supplements on the market today. For my family, we take one high in DHAs and EPAs.
DHA is a major structural component for our nerves and brains. It assists with brain and eye development, which is why it's recommended during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
I have to admit, my mother is pretty happy that I am heeding her advice. She may not have had the same reasons for giving me cod liver oil as I do for my sons, but the benefit is the same. After all these years, I am going to be passing along my mother's "old wives tales" to my children and future generations. And happy to say, you too can take cod liver oil, and live to tell about.

innovationXchange is DFAT's development innovation hub.
A celebration of Australia delivered in a country or region of strategic significance.
Ensuring Australia continues to build soft power and exercise influence effectively.
To help Australians avoid difficulties overseas, we maintain travel advisories for more than 170 destinations.
The Australian Passport Office and its agents are committed to providing a secure, efficient and responsive passport service for Australia.
The Governments of Malaysia and Australia ('the Participants');
Acknowledging the breadth of their well-established cooperation relationship, encompassing political and security cooperation, social and cultural cooperation, as well as economic and technical cooperation;
Recalling the specific economic and technical cooperation activities undertaken between Malaysia and Australia, particularly since the Joint Trade Committee meeting in August 2009;
Seeking to utilise opportunities to engage in further mutually beneficial economic and technical cooperation activities;
Have reached the following understandings:
For the Government of Malaysia
For the Government of Australia
Substantial and wide-ranging economic and technical cooperation is taking place
between Malaysia and Australia. In the context of the negotiations of the MAFTA,
the MAFTA Parties decided to establish a strategic framework for undertaking
economic and technical cooperation activities to expand and enhance the benefits
of MAFTA. MAFTA's Chapter
16 (Economic and Technical Cooperation) provides this strategic framework.
The MAFTA Parties also prioritise further cooperation activities through this Implementing Arrangement in the following sectors:
Synopses on economic and technical cooperation in each of the above sectors/areas follow.
Following the release of Malaysia's National Automotive Policy Review in October 2009, a delegation of Malaysian automotive industry and government representatives visited Australia in July 2010 to explore possible synergies in the automotive sector, taking account of both the outcomes of the Agreement Establishing the ASEAN-Australia-New Zealand Free Trade Area and the scope for enhanced outcomes in the MAFTA negotiations. This was followed by Ministerial visits and meetings with industry as well as other government and industry visits. This included the mission to Malaysia in November 2010 by a delegation from the Victorian State Government and the Federation of Automotive Products Manufacturers (FAPM) and the delegation of Australian automotive industry and government representatives visit to Malaysia in February 2012.
The exchanges between the Malaysian and Australian automotive industry sectors
have resulted in a number of cooperation arrangements and specific cooperative
activities. These include memoranda of understanding concluded between Australia's
Cooperative Research Centre for Advanced Automotive Technology Ltd (AutoCRC)
and the Malaysia Automotive Institute (MAI) in March 2011, between FAPM and
the Malaysian Automotive Components Parts Manufacturers Association (MACPMA)
and between FAPM and the Proton Vendors Association (PVA) in November 2010,
as well as a number of collaborative arrangements between individual Australian
and Malaysian companies. These arrangements span the development of technology,
supply chains and human capital. The activities covered include research and
development initiatives in new automotive technologies, industry exchanges and
technology transfers for automotive-based companies in Malaysia and Australia,
and academic and education exchanges.
Cooperation to date has demonstrated the value both governments and industries see in further developing the cooperation and collaboration to take advantage of the increasingly open trade and investment environment between the two countries.
Future cooperation will be based on projects and activities to be identified on an annual basis. The annual list of projects and its respective proponents (both Malaysian and Australian parties) will be determined, documented and reported to the FTA Joint Commission.
The cost of cooperation under the automotive sector will be based on an understanding of continuing Australian government contribution to activities related to research and/or development, including validation and human capital and supply chain requirements while the industry players (in Australia and Malaysia) will undertake the commercialisation activities meant for mass production and marketing purposes.
Malaysia Automotive Institute (MAI), AutoCRC, Kangan Institute and Vetassess. Other proponents will be determined and documented in the agreed projects.
The Participants will establish a Malaysia-Australia Automotive Industry Dialogue to provide a forum to enhance engagement and cooperation between the Malaysian and Australian automotive industries and to facilitate joint government and industry consultations on future cooperation. The dialogue will be convened by the Malaysian and Australian Governments and will include representatives from industry, research bodies and government. The dialogue will:
The dialogue will identify impediments to the realisation of increased cooperation
and collaboration between the Malaysian and Australian automotive industries,
and increased trade opportunities in the automotive sector, and seek to promote
activities to address these impediments (e.g. through annual lists of projects).
These activities could include:
Under the Memorandum of Understanding for the Enhancement of Agricultural Cooperation between the Australian and Malaysian Governments, signed 8 March 2006, the Participants have worked to strengthen existing co-operation and further encourage and promote stronger co-operation and trade in the fields of agriculture, food, fisheries, forestry and livestock. The Malaysia-Australia Agricultural Cooperation Working Group (MAACWG) is the primary forum responsible for the formulation, implementation and supervision of cooperative activities and projects under this MOU.
Noting the priority accorded by Malaysia to the establishment of the Malaysian Quarantine and Inspection Service (MAQIS), as the single body responsible for inspections at all entry and exit points in Malaysia, Australia's Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) will work with MAQIS officials to develop a Phytosanitary e-Certification arrangement between the two countries. This follows up on recommendations of the recently completed scoping study on the current operational requirements in MAQIS. The Phytosanitary e-Certification project is aimed at promoting Malaysia's trade with Australia and building stronger institutional links between DAFF and Malaysia's Department of Agriculture (DOA).
Malaysia's Ministry of Agriculture and Agro-Based Industry (MOA), DOAMAQIS
and DAFF.
To assist Malaysia in the development of Phytosanitary e-Certification.
The focus of cooperation in this sector will be Malaysia's intention to develop a tourism accreditation scheme for ecotourism. Australia has an international reputation in the highly competitive field of ecotourism, having developed one of the first ecotourism accreditation schemes in the mid-1990s. The accreditation scheme is aimed at giving consumers confidence in the quality of tourism products which promotes the long-term sustainability of the industry.
Australia's Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism (RET) will facilitate engagement with relevant Malaysian representatives on Australia's National Tourism Accreditation Framework, as well as engagement between Malaysian representatives and Ecotourism Australia, providing access to the experiences of a range of accredited tourism operators.
Ministry of Tourism Malaysia (MOTOUR) and Australia's Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism (RET).
Australia's Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute (GCCSI), an independent
scientific organisation, has established a carbon capture and storage capacity
development program with Malaysian stakeholders. The Institute has a program
of activities with Malaysia and has begun discussions on developing a Carbon
Capture and Storage (CCS) Training Unit for Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) and
PETRONAS Universities. Australia's GCCSI will share with Malaysia expertise
on carbon capture and storage technology for the purpose of reducing carbon
dioxide emissions from thermal power plants. Cooperation is aimed at assisting
TNB Research with its goal of developing its own carbon capture project.
The main objectives of cooperation are:
Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute (GCCSI) and TNB Research.
The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner will assist Malaysia
in the development of its new Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection
and in the initial stage of the implementation of its Personal Data Protection
Act. Assisting Malaysia to establish its personal information protection law
and the associated Commissioner's office will contribute to Australian and Malaysian
industries utilising business opportunities.
Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection of Malaysia and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
To assist Malaysia in the development of its new Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection and in the initial stage of the implementation of its Personal Data Protection Act.

Now In 3D - S/T E.P.
If you didn't attend this year's Gusto Fest, not only did you miss out on nearly 7 hours worth of live music and partying, but you missed the chance to get your hands on a copy of this EP. That's two mistakes you weren't even aware you made. Wow, that must suck; you should really consider stepping your game up, but believe it or not, I'm not here to berate you. What I'm here to do is string a bunch of words together in a manner that properly conveys my feelings towards this 10 minute collection of Punk Rock goodness.
Lyrically, this EP is reminiscent of early Ramones, especially on songs like "TV Brain" ("I've got a TV Brain in my head, I get dumb and it gets fed.") or perhaps Misfits with less gore and more camp. I could see this as the score of a short film about wreaking havoc in a small town while driving a convertible Cadillac and looking stylish while you terrorize the elderly and rob banks. Someone should probably get started on that, as a matter of fact, get Now In 3D to star in it. I'd definitely go watch that movie and I'd probably buy some popcorn just so I can start a food fight.
This is music for driving fast and living faster. The EP flies by like a good day and has you wanting to hit repeat as soon as it's done. I could give you a track-by-track breakdown, but I'd sound like I'm repeating myself. Synth noises, catchy choruses and straight-forward, classic-sounding Punk Rock on every song. Add a dose of Sci-Fi and you've nailed it. It's an incredibly fun listen and perhaps even a nod to Punk's early days while keeping it's "X-Ray Eyes" focused keenly on the future. In an alternate dimension, grizzled old Punks walk around in Now In 3D shirts and talk about how music was better back in their day. Even in an alternate reality, those old guys are right, Now In 3D is awesome.
RATING: 8/10 - Grab one if you can find it. Maybe try going to a show, genius.

When it comes to performance and return on investment there are relatively few home design products that can compete with porcelain and ceramic tile for flooring and walls. With a life cycle of 50 years, when broken down on an annual basis, it is also a sustainable low maintenance and low cost choice that on average cost less than 40¢ per square foot annually, according to the Tile Council of North America. On the surface, when it comes to flooring most people assume it's the most expensive option given the initial cost in comparison to lower initial cost options such as carpet and vinyl tile. That is until you consider that most carpet and vinyl tile has on average a 6 to 10 year life with a $1.08 to $1.39 per square foot annual cost when factoring in greater maintenance requirements.

Designed For Healthy Living
Contrary to popular opinion interior design is serious business. I had lunch with a friend recently who shared with me that when he was just starting out as a financial advisor he invited a potential client to his office and assumed that the meeting went well until he followed up and was told by his prospect that given the condition of his business office he would not even consider doing business with him. Property managers know that in addition to location the quality of the materials and finishes used in the design of the interiors of a space dictates the lease or rental rates they can command. It doesn't matter whether you're talking about a business environment or a residential environment the decor makes a lasting impression on all that enter the space. But beyond aesthetics the quality of the indoor air you breathe has definite health consequences that should be considered and addressed in the design of your home's interior spaces. In fact according to the EPA indoor air quality is said to be anywhere from two to five times worst than outdoor air quality and most people spend 90% of their time indoors.
Tybee Island: Vintage Cottage Charm vs. Modern Open Concept
As I was looking through the August issue of This Old House magazine I came across an article about cottage style which centered on a home located on Tybee Island which is less than 20 miles from Savannah, Georgia. It's a community of over 2,500 year round residents and boasts a unique collection of beach cottages, ocean front condos and million dollar single family homes. Although I've never visited this beach, having spent time in Savannah I hope to visit soon, as I haven't quite gotten over my cravings for pecan pralines. On the next trip the plan is to buy twice as much having devoured this delectable treat on the drive between Savannah and Hilton Head on my last trip. I've coped by topping my Greek yogurt with Trader Joe's Pecan Praline Granola each morning (it also makes a great crust over a blueberry cobbler). But I digress (sweets are one of my indulgences).
Reflections of Beauty
After settling on the foundational investment pieces mentioned in previous posts (carpets, rugs, sofas, draperies) accessorizing becomes the next priority when creating a home environment that appeals to your personal taste. The accessory that makes the biggest impact when it comes to creating the visual illusion of spaciousness is a mirror. Mirrors can not only make a room look larger but they also, when properly placed, can reflect additional lighting into a room and reflect back beautiful views within and outside of a space.

You had my hand in your hand, you had my lip in your teeth, you had my heart on your sleeve...
I like the way the colors turned out on this. I think the first is better, just because it's so garish that it complements the melodrama of the whole piece. That jarring color scheme goes for it more and pushes it over the edge. Well, it's not like it was subtle before the colors anway. Words from La Dispute.

Trying my hand at painting again
First tiem I've painted anything in ages. The idea I had for this ended up requiring a much cleaner aesthetic than something I would have normally chosen to use paints for, the stencils (stars) and cleaner lines on the figure made it a very meticulous process near the end but it was so much more rewarding to get there. I love working digital but nothing seems to beat the feeling of physical materials in your hands. The personal satisfaction achieved from going through that process just feels so much better, even if it takes longer and isn't inherently "better". There was something very satisfying about coming home to my easel set up and waiting for me, and having this unfinished piece greeting/glaring at me every morning. I haven't felt so connected to my work in a while. This made me happy.

Wild birdseed contained higher levels of aflatoxins and other mycotoxins than any other kind of pet food analyzed in studies done around the world, a new review of those studies reports in an article scheduled for the Dec. 27 issue of ACS' Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
Trevor K. Smith and colleagues at the University of Guelph in Ontario point out that mycotoxins are harmful compounds produced by fungi that can grow in cereal grains and nuts used in many pet foods. The compounds are carcinogenic and have other ill effects when consumed at sufficient doses.
The U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and its counterpart in Canada have a legal limit of 20 micrograms per kilogram for aflatoxin in pet food. "Wild bird feed was found to be the most contaminated among different types of pet foods in several surveys, possibly due to the use of corn, nuts, and seeds as significant ingredients," the researchers said. "Up to one-fourth of the wild bird feed samples were contaminated with more than 100 micrograms of aflatoxin. This presents a potential health threat to the birds."
Among commercial dog and cat foods, the percentage of samples positive for aflatoxin varied from study to study, the researchers found. However, even the positive samples generally had levels of aflatoxin below the FDA limit.

In an advance in the emerging field of bacterial imaging, scientists are reporting development of a method for identifying specific sites of localized bacterial infections in living animals. Bradley D. Smith at the University of Notre Dame and colleagues describe the method in a report scheduled for the Jan. 10 edition of the Journal of the American Chemical Society, a weekly publication.
The researchers previously discovered fluorescent molecular probes containing zinc that could be used to discriminate between common pathogenic bacteria — such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus — and mammalian cells. In new research, they report using the probes to pinpoint the sites of staph infections in living laboratory mice. In everyday medicine, physicians may have difficulty distinguishing localized bacterial infections from sites of sterile inflammation.
"Bacterial imaging is an emerging technology that has many health and environmental applications," the researchers note. "For example, there is an obvious need to develop highly sensitive assays that can detect very small numbers of pathogenic bacterial cells in food, drinking water, or biomedical samples. In other situations, the goal is to study in vivo the temporal and spatial distribution of bacteria in live animals.
A new method for detecting cyanide in drinking water and other sources offers numerous advantages over cumbersome existing technology, scientists report in an article scheduled for the Jan. 1 issue of ACS' Analytical Chemistry, a semi-monthly journal.
Idaho State University's Jeffrey J. Rosentreter, Yegor G. Timofeyenko and Susan Mayo point out that cyanide is critical in industries ranging from fertilizers and plastics to mining and steel production, with 1.4 million tons produced worldwide each year. Cyanide also is toxic and its presence in the environment must be monitored closely. Existing instruments, however, require large samples, take a long time to produce results, require specially trained operators, and have poor precision and other drawbacks.
The researchers describe development of a new cyanide sensor that overcomes those disadvantages, while being inexpensive and portable. The sensor, for instance, produces results of toxins in water instantaneously and targets the specific form of cyanide toxic to humans and other organisms — making it especially attractive for safety and security applications, the researchers state.

New research has brightened the prospects for using nanodiamonds as drug carriers, implant coatings, nanorobots and other medical applications that take advantage of diamond nanoparticles' attractive properties. The research is scheduled for publication Dec. 28 in ACS' weekly The Journal of Physical Chemistry B.
Liming Dai (University of Dayton), Saber M. Hussain (Wright-Patterson Air Force Base) and colleagues, including PhD student Amanda Schrand, explain that advances in technology have made a new generation of nanodiamonds available. Although diamond in bulk form is inert and biocompatible, nano-materials often behave differently than their bulk counterparts. That led to concern that diamond nanoparticles might have toxic effects on cells.
"We have for the first time assessed the cytotoxicity of nanodiamonds ranging in size from 2 to 10 nm," the researchers state, adding that nanodiamonds were not toxic to a variety of different cell types. "These results suggest that nanodiamonds could be ideal for many biological applications in a diverse range of cell types," they add.

New scientific insights into the packaging of molecules in solids may tempt jokesters to add a second line to that old medical axiom, "Take two aspirin and call me in the morning." Insiders familiar with an unfolding controversy about aspirin — more than 100 billion tablets of which are produced worldwide each year — might quip, "Well, doctor, should I take Form I or Form II?"
An article scheduled for the Jan.1 issue of Chemical & Engineering News, the ACS' weekly newsmagazine, discusses the controversy that has arisen since 2006, when scientists isolated, described and filed a patent for a putative new form of aspirin. Written by C&EN senior editor Ivan Amato, the article describes subtle differences in the crystal, or internal, structures of familiar acetylsalicylic acid and the newly described Form II of aspirin.
The article explains that the discovery of Form II may not have any practical implications for people who take aspirin. However, uncertainties about Form II do showcase surprising knowledge gaps in organic chemists' understanding of the solid state of matter, Amato writes. Those gaps are apparent at a time when pharmaceutical companies are recognizing that minuscule differences in the crystal structures of drugs can have big influences on how drugs work in patients.

Apple has introduced drastic changes in terms of look and design elements with iOS 7, as well as a few minor changes to the iOS interface. The bulk of code changes in the software have lead to several unexpected bugs and UI glitches that are affecting the OS and causing widespread user issues.
IBTimes UK brings you a simple step-by-step guide to quickly fix most troublesome bugs and glitches in iOS 7, courtesy of iPhone Hacks.
Random User Log-Out Issues with Apps
iOS 7 users have been reportedly experiencing random log-out issues while running certain apps, requiring them to enter their login information repeatedly. The affected apps include Mailbox, Snapchat and Paypal, which seem to be afflicted with the log-out glitch linked to iOS 7's new Background App Refresh feature.
Fix: To resolve this issue, go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and disable the feature for all affected apps.
Audio Apps Crash with Incoming Calls
iOS 7 Audio apps are said to crash when you receive an incoming call while using the app for creating music or doing other audio-related tasks. Users run the risk of losing data on random app crashes as there is no specific solution for this issue.
Fix: As a workaround, users are advised to update their apps frequently and switch to Airplane mode while performing any audio related task.
Lockscreen Security Vulnerabilities
iOS 7 Lockscreen has been under scrutiny for its security loopholes and vulnerabilities. Apple recently rolled out an iOS 7.0.2 bug-fix for Lockscreen passcode glitch that allowed unauthorised access to Phone services. However, another bug was unearthed a few days ago that lets anyone bypass the lockscreen passcode and gain access to the Phone app.
Fix: To disable Siri from Lockscreen, go to Settings > General > Passcode Lock. Scroll down to Allow Access When Locked section and choose Disable Siri option.
Miscalibrated Motion Sensors
iPhone 5s is reportedly affected by a miscalibrated motion sensor glitch that results in erroneous motion-related data being sent to apps. It is still unclear if this issue is hardware or software-related that could be fixed via a simple update.
Fix: There is no fix or workaround available for this issue yet. Users are advised to wait until Apple releases a bug-fix update and check if that resolves the issue. If it is a hardware issue, you should eventually be able to get your new device replaced under warranty.

Three Paramount ads from 1919. At that early stage, its race record series was still several years away, and other than the bold advertising graphics — a Paramount specialty from the start — there was little to distinguish the label from dozens of other start-ups. The bottom ad pictures the Grafton, Wisconsin complex. The long structure on the left is the pressing plant, in a converted fabric mill. The building on the right would eventually house the legendary studio in which the likes of Skip James recorded.

John S. Macdonald — better known to record buyers as the tenor "Harry Macdonough" — led a dual life. He was one of the best-selling recording artists of the early 1900s, while at the same time working his way up the ladder at Victor, from studio manager to manager of artists and repertoire manager, and eventually, to sales manager. Here are some of his recollections, as recounted to Ulysses (Jim) Walsh in 1931. The letter was written just as Walsh was beginning to undertake the research that would culminate in his long-running "Pioneer Recording Artists" column for Hobbies magazine. For more on Macdonald's remarkable career (much of which he downplays in his letter), see "Harry Macdonough, Victor's Singing Executive" on the Mainspring Press website.

Click here for a basic listing — catalog numbers / artists / titles — of Columbia's very scarce and collectible Twentieth Century cylinders, which the company called "Half-Foot Long Records" in their advertising. (You'll need Acrobat or Acrobat reader to open the file.) Like their smaller XP siblings, these usually lack artist credits on the rims. A much more detailed listing is in the works for The Columbia Cylinderography, which is being developed for publication by Mainspring Press.
The photo, from our recent Denver warehouse haul, shows the two basic box types. Our initial fear on seeing the "Plain Jane" boxes (which we'd not seen before) was that they might contain dictation cylinders; happily, they held real BC's, and the matching numbered lids turned up at the bottom of the crate. The "Half Foot Long" ad below is from 1906. The records (which required the purchase of a new machine) never caught on and were discontinued in 1908.

Clinton B. Repp's Vitaphone* machine was an oddity for its day, dispensing with the usual reproducer and hollow tone-arm assembly. Instead, the sound vibrations were transmitted by a solid wooden tone-arm to a stationery reproducer positioned at the horn linkage. Edward Amet had employed a similar idea in his glass-arm Echophone (U.S. patent #562,693, filed in November 1895), but Repp's was a much more sophisticated design. It was also a universal phonograph, able to play lateral- or vertical-cut discs at a time when the latter were first appearing in the American market:
Repp's patent #1,003,655, filed on June 24, 1909, used a cylinder machine for illustrative purposes. We don't know of any Repp cylinder machines having been produced, but the same basic design was incorporated in the Vitaphone disc machine:
The Vitaphone Company launched a nationwide ad campaign in 1911, which naturally caught the attention of Victor's patent attorneys. On October 6, 1911, Victor applied for an injunction, claiming infringement of its Berliner patent. On November 13, Judge Lacombe ruled in Victor's favor and ordered issuance of a temporary injunction. Vitaphone appealed and continued to operate. The company advertised heavily during 1912, assuring dealers that its unique product infringed no patents (although it actually did):
The company even arranged to have Columbia press Vitaphone records, which were sold in Canada. More legal wrangling ensued, but in the end the legal issues became largely moot, as there apparently was too little demand for the product to keep Vitaphone afloat.
* Of no relation to the earlier American Vitaphone Company (although Repp had sold their products in Cuba and Mexico), the Warner Brothers' sound-film system, or any of the various other ventures using the Vitaphone name.

Torghatten, and its distinctive hole going clear through the mountain is widely known, both here in Norway and internationally. The saga tells us that it was the Horseman's arrow (Hestmannen is the Norwegian name of the mountain) that created the hole, whereas geologists have ascertained that it was ice erosion that carved out the impressive hole. Nowadays, it is very easy to bike or drive to Torghatten from Brønnøysund.

1 tablespoon Cajun spice
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt and pepper
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Pour oil into baking pan, add spices, mix well.
2. Add chickpeas and mix until well coated.
3. Place in oven for 15-20 minutes, or until crunchy. Stir once half way. Enjoy cold or hot.
I like to eat these instead of chips or other junk while I watch a movie.
Man, oh man! These things are so good! I didn't realize that chickpeas got crispy and crunchy. That is really great. I think I cooked mine for longer than 20min though. I put them in the toaster oven and I kind of forgot about them for a while. I probably cooked them for more like 45min. They came out really crunchy!

A luxury high-rise apartment in Manhattan's Upper West Side is set to have a so-called "poor door" — a separate entrance for low-income residents receiving subsidized housing.
The 33-story building — 40 Riverside Boulevard – being developed by Extell Development Company will have 219 condominiums selling for more than $1 million each.
But by including 55 affordable housing units on the first few floors renting at a starting price of $845 a month, the developer could get a tax break, according to the West Side Rag.
With this disparity between the million-dollar condos for purchase versus the units for rent at a phenomenally low price for Manhattan, the developer decided to design the building with separate entrances for those who own condos and those who rent at a price below market value. As one might expect, this "rich door," "poor door" situation doesn't sit well with some.
"This 'separate but equal' arrangement is abominable and has no place in the 21st century, let alone on the Upper West Side," Assemblymember Linda Rosenthal, a Democrat, told the West Side Rag. "A mandatory affordable housing plan is not license to segregate lower-income tenants from those who are well-off. The developer must follow the spirit as well the letter of the law when building affordable housing, and this plan is clearly not what was intended by the community."
Although the building is still under construction, it already has some residents who shared their opinion about the separate entrances with WNYW-TV:
"It should be one door for, I guess, one building and share the access equally – yeah," said one resident.
"I guess this is a good compromise in order for them to build their building and also provide housing for other people," added another resident.
That said, it is not entirely uncommon for housing in New York City to have separate entrances such as these. The West Side Rag reports: The city calls this inclusionary zoning.
Of course, the irony is that the poor are excluded from renting apartments in the market-rate side of the building. The "affordable" part of the building is completely separate from the luxury section, with its own entrance and elevator.
The local community board wrote a letter to the city's planning and housing departments asking them to at least make sure the developer includes measures to "avoid a situation in which the Affordable Housing tenants are relegated to the status of second class citizens."
Extell said in a statement to 1010 WINS Sunday that the rental units will provide "high quality affordable residences in a beautiful neighborhood – residences we are confident will attract no shortage of applicants."
In order to be eligible for one of the 55 subsidized rental units, applicants need to make less than 60 percent of the median income — $51,450. Renters will be chosen through a lottery system, according to the West Side Rag.

CLEVELAND - Six months after it become law in Ohio, "Goddard's Law" is already having an impact.
Named for legendary FOX 8 Meteorologist Dick Goddard, the law raised the penalty for abuse of companion animals from a misdemeanor to a felony. In effect, it put teeth into the state's laws when it comes to protecting pets - even for first-time offenders.
"Before 'Goddard's Law'," says Amy Beichler, executive director of Paws Ohio, "an individual who'd never done this before could take an animal...and shoot it, stab it, put it on fire, and the most they'd be charged with was a first-degree misdemeanor. Now, you don't get a pass."
Several people have faced charges under the law. They include a man in Geauga County accused of shooting a neighbor's dog, and a man in Alliance accused of setting his dog on fire (something he denied).
"Would I want something different than a year in prison to be attached? - absolutely," Beichler says. "Obviously, this woman needs some mental intervention, anger management intervention."
But, Beichler adds, the sentence "sent a very strong message across the state of Ohio that this will not be tolerated at all."
The legislation was sponsored by Rep. Bill Patmon of Cleveland, and Beichler says having Dick Goddard's name attached to it certainly helped to get the bill passed into law. "This is his legacy, without question, this is his legacy," Beichler says.
"He testified before committees, he stood there on behalf of the animals, and he was the voice of the animals."
