Part frittata, part pizza, this rich dish tops prepared pizza dough with smoked salmon, eggs, peppers, and cream cheese.
Smoked salmon is similar to, but not the same as lox. Lox is brine-cured and typically more salty than smoked salmon.
To get a jump-start on this pizza, cook the bell peppers and onions the day before and refrigerate until you're ready to complete the recipe.

Great news! Starting today we are offering a 100% money back guarantee on our snow conditions!
We will be introducing a snow conditions page on our website, and also highway road sign so we can accurately share the trail conditions! The snow, or lack thereof, on the highway is a poor way to determine the conditions on the trails and backcountry, and we have been trying to find a better way to inform everyone about the true snow conditions.
To back up our rating system, we are offering a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE! That's right, if you book a vacation with us, and the snow conditions deteriorate before your arrival, we will contact you and offer you a 100% refund!
We are prepared at this point to state that we will have great sledding conditions well into mid April, so book your snowmobile vacation WITH CONFIDENCE as far as April 15th and possibly beyond. You have nothing to lose, as we will refund 100% of your reservation if the snow conditions deteriorate.
Current conditions are near perfect, and we have the pictures, videos and customer testimonials to prove it!
We still have a couple weekend openings, and plenty of options on weekdays, so book today online at www.riverfrontchalets.ca/chalets.php or by calling 709-486-0892.
Looking forward to seeing you soon!

- Description
The Commonwealth of Virginia's Department of Geology and Mineral Resources has their offices in Charlottesville, Virginia. Outside their building is an exceptional collection of large rock samples from across the state. Samples include igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks from all five physiographic provinces, and spanning more than a billion years of geologic time. This gigapan was shot on April 14, 2011, during the lunch break of the DGMR's annual "Geology of Virginia" symposium. A full guide to the rocks in the garden is published online by the DGMR at:
www.dmme.virginia.gov/DMR3/dmrpdfs/vamin/VM 48_2_3.pdf
The map of the garden in that document shows that this gigapan was shot from the sidewalk between the two samples of #31, the Leesburg Conglomerate and #35, the Antietam Formation quartzite, with its characteristic linear Skolithos trace fossils.
A blog post describing some of the rocks is online at:

d1carter on December 30, 2012 at 10:07 PM
Last week's events in Equatorial Guinea were truly historic, although we may not know for years or even decades what their final meaning is. What's important, however, is that we focus on what this means to the citizens themselves. The current administration seems too caught up in dissecting the macro-level situation to pay attention to how their people are doing. Just call it missing the shirts for the cloth.
When thinking about the recent troubles, it's important to remember three things: One, people don't behave like computer programs, so attempts to treat them as such are a waste of time. Computer programs never suddenly shift their course in order to fit with a predetermined set of beliefs. Two, Equatorial Guinea has spent decades torn by civil war and ethnic hatred, so a mindset of peace and stability will seem foreign and strange. And three, capitalism is an extraordinarily powerful idea: If ethnic conflict is Equatorial Guinea's glass ceiling, then capitalism is certainly its flowerpot.
Wethal on December 30, 2012 at 10:09 PM
Friedman actually does this with this own article, the man hasn't typed so much as a single word for his op-eds in over 15 years.
In fact ol' Tom might have passed on already, his corpse sitting mummified in a cellar bathtub while the widow gleefully cashes the NYT paychecks.

When I visited Thailand in 1998, Tintin, the cabbie who drove me from the airport, couldn't stop telling me about how he had to take a second job because of the high cost of higher education. I caught up with Tintin in Bangkok last year. Thanks to Thailand's reformed approach toward higher education, Tintin has enough money in his pocket to finally be able to afford a soccer ball for his kids.

Friedman, once again, is in fairytale-land.
But the Republican party of Rand Paul is not the Republican party of Ronald Reagan. Reagan wouldn't refuse to budge, he'd reach across the aisle because he'd understand that the fate of the country, and his own political career, depended on a lasting solution to the problem of gas prices.
But Obama is always a charlatanic thug "I won" tyrant.
This is Friedman's home. Start by spending less, hypocrite.
Schadenfreude on December 30, 2012 at 10:32 PM
This is absolutely hilarious. I keep hitting the generate button to see where all the word segments are plugged in; it's quite thorough.
theperfecteconomist on December 30, 2012 at 10:45 PM
It's good to see the talks between the president and congress getting off to a solid start, but we know there will be plenty of partisan fireworks before any deal is cut. If I had fifteen minutes to pitch my idea to politicians, I'd tell them two things about same-sex marriage. First, there's no way around the issue unless we're prepared to spend less: and not just spend less, but spend smarter by investing in the kind of green energy that makes countries succeed. That's going to require some tax cuts as well, but as they say, "When in Rome."
vegconservative on December 30, 2012 at 10:51 PM
That's all it takes. Don't expect to see any solutions as long as fringe bloggers insist on playing a high-stakes game of chess with one another. America has to become a first world country again.
vegconservative on December 30, 2012 at 10:51 PM
LOL. Friedman bungles the Zambian translation:
She pondered for a second, and then smiled and said, shakka-do-lakka-the, which is a local saying that means roughly, "
FishMarxists are no respectors of human boredomliberty, so why go anglingon writing — or breathing for that matter."

Finally: The Tom Friedman op-ed generator
AP's best of 2012!
BTW, remember that old postmodernism speech generator. It was a hoot. Wish it were still online.
Second, I'd tell them to look at Sweden, which all but solved its same-sex marriage crisis over the past decade. When I visited Sweden in 1998, Kiki, the cabbie who drove me from the airport, couldn't stop telling me about how he had to take a third job because of the high cost of same-sex marriage. I caught up with Kiki in Stockholm last year. Thanks to Sweden's reformed approach toward same-sex marriage, Kiki has enough money in his pocket to finally be able to afford winter coats for his kids.
On the rare occasion when it isn't spot-on, it's even funnier:
If I had fifteen minutes to pitch my idea to politicians, I'd tell them two things about same-sex marriage. First, there's no way around the issue unless we're prepared to spend more: and not just spend more, but spend smarter by investing in the kind of human capital that makes countries succeed. That's going to require some tax increases as well, but as they say, "them's the breaks."

After weeks of range trading, a bunch of solar stocks are on the move. There's not been much news real news on the sector, but there does seem to be a change of heart.
Take the report Credit Suisse released yesterday, Its analysts noted that solar prices appears to be bottoming–and flat pricing means business isn't getting much worse, while the relative stability in the market could mean some stocks will beat earnings. They also note that China's steps to boost demand and the possibility of converting U.S. solar stocks into MLPs or REITs might be boosting investor sentiment (although the latter might be more fiction than fact).
The rally has come despite the fact that China is expected to launch its own tariffs on Feb. 20, in response to measures targeting China's manufacturers instituted in the U.S. and Europe. The tariffs "would increase costs slightly for China wafer/cell/module manufactures," including Trina Solar (TSL), Yingli Green Energy Holdings (YGE), Suntech Power Holdings (STP), JinkoSolar Holding (JKS) and JA Solar Holdings ( JASO), Credit Suisse notes. The market, however, doesn't seem to care.
It is differentiating, however. Yingli and Jinko, for instance are in clear uptrends.

Dragons are creatures with nearly unlimited life spans. They can survive for long periods of time, and no one has found a dragon that has died of old age. Adolescence is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling's wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. Once they hit adolescence, hatchlings change quickly, maturing to their full forms in only 2 years.
Dragons don't communicate with each other verbally, but they will growl to scare off predators and frighten prey. Young dragons will emit an extremely high-pitched squeal when they are frightened. To communicate, they use telepathy with each other and to speak to other creatures.
Gold dragons are the ones most often killed by humans, who consider their scales to be extremely valuable. These golden scales grant them a high level of protection, similar to armor, and they use this to their advantage in battle.

COLUMBUS — A 62-year-old Columbus woman has been sentenced to 10 years for embezzling $474,238 from her employer.
WCBI-TV in Columbus reports that Bernice Lile was sentenced this week by Lowndes County Circuit Judge Lee Coleman.
Prosecutors say Lile worked at Gordman Insurance and admitted taking $800 or more a day between January 2010 and September 2011 and giving much of the money to others.
Lile was also head of the Lowndes County E-911 board at the time of her arrest, but resigned shortly after the arrest.

You can win with Tanny...kid shows a ton and if not for him we would have had **** to be excited for at the end if the year.
To be honest I like him a lot the only major issue I have with Tanny is his deep ball accuracy. Hopefully he works on that extensively this off season

Overall Tannehill did have a good season, imo. The continuing inability to connect on long passes, however, especially down the sidelines, is both alarming and infuriating. I really want to believe it is just the last piece of the puzzle that will eventually fall into place as he fully matures but at this point, I just don't know if it is going to happen for him. He has already proven that he can win games, and getting the O-line mess straightened out (along with the running game) will definitely make his life easier. However, if he is ever going to make a real jump into the upper echelon level of starting QBs, he must hit those deep balls with far more regularity. If not, we'll keep seeing many more of those heart attack inducing games where the offense either does just enough to win or completely craps the bed.
Of course he thinks the same of himself.

Here are some things going on this morning in your world of tech:
Shares of Verizon Communications (VZ) are $1.93, or almost 4%, at $51.47, after the company this morning reported revenue slightly below consensus, at $29.4 billion versus $29.6 billion, but beat the average 66 cents estimate with 68 cents. Verizon added 677,000 wireless subscribers on a net basis, and said it activated 7.2 million smartphones, of which 4 million were Apple's (AAPL) iPhones.
That news is not helping Apple, whose shares are down $6.61, or 1.6%, at $396.19, their lowest level since December 21st of 2011.
Topeka Capital Markets's Brian White opines that the 35% decline from Q4′s activations was "healthy" for overall iPhone demand, given that Verizon was one of the first carriers to get the iPhone and "thus should be weaker than the more newly added carriers."
But CNBC this morning hosted Apple bear Dan Niles with Alpha One Capital Management, who remarked that "the negative out of Verizon is all the carriers are trying to discourage upgrades, and Verizon actually did a good job with that, which is why you saw some upside on the margins for them," and the risk of subsidies going away is a big risk for the company, he thinks."
Speaking of Apple, another voice joins the chorus of those proposing a future debt raise by the company. J.P. Morgan's Mark Moskowitz this morning reiterates an Overweight rating on the stock and a $725 price target, writing that "Apple could be on the brink of driving a major leveraging up. With the company's cash pile growing and historically low borrowing rates, we think that investors should start to consider what the expanded cash uses could be if Apple takes on $15 billion, if not $20-25 billion, in unsecured debt in the near to mid term.
Shares of Nokia (NOK) are down 40 cents, or 11%, at $3.18 after the company this morning reported Q1 revenue of €5.85 billion, missing by a wide margin the average €6.5 billion estimate, but turned in a smaller-than-expected loss at 7 cents versus 11 cents per share. The company said its "Devices & Services" business, including smartphones and handsets, saw a 25% rise, year over year, to €2.9 billion. CEO Stephen Elop remarked that "people are responding positively to the Lumia portfolio," its smartphones running Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows Phone operating system, but that "our Mobile Phones business faces a difficult competitive environment."
UBS's Gareth Jenkins reiterates a Neutral rating on Nokia shares and a price target of $3.38 per American Depository Receipt, writing that "Devices & Services is better on EBIT/GM though the beat was driven by a €50m inventory provision reversal."
"Our checks in Asia indicated weakening feature phones and in the event these were even worse than feared and we feel will likely require further restructuring efforts."
Shares of Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) are up $1.10, or 6%, at $18.09, after the company this morning reported Q1 revenue of $132.76 billion in New Taiwan dollars, beating the average $130.6 billion, and EPS of $7.78 per share, above the average $7.58 per share. The company projected revenue this quarter well above expectations, at $154 billion to $156 billion, also above consensus of $141 billion.
On the conference call following the report, the company said it plans to spend $9 billion in capital investments this year, up from $8.3 billion last year, which was above what some analysts were expecting. (The full transcript of the call is here.) That's producing mixed results among chip equipment stocks, with KLA Tencor (KLAC) rising by 27 cents, or half a percent, to $53, and ASML Holding NV (ASML) rising $2.05, or 3%, at $71.50, but Lam Research (LRCX) stock is down 17 cents, or 0.4%, at $41.33, and Applied Materials (AMAT) shares are down 7 cents, or half a percent, at $12.96.
Shares of chip maker Fairchild Semiconductor International (FCS) are up 22 cents, or 1.6%, at $13.70, after the company reported $343 million in Q1 revenue and a 2-cent loss per share, versus consensus of $340 million and a 4-cent profit.
Sprint-Nextel (S) shares are up 2 cents at $7.11 this morning as CNBC's David Faber reports that the company has formed a special committee to review Dish Networks's (DISH) proposed $7.02-per-share takeover offer. In his segment, Faber noted there's considerable speculation on the enormous debt being raised for the deal — the combined company would have $44 billion or so of it — and whether perhaps Dish CEO Charlie Ergen isn't really serious but just wants to push for a commercial deal with Sprint of some kind.
Correction: A prior version of this post incorrectly compared Nokia results to year-ago results for the company in assessing today's report relative to Street estimates. The proper comparison was Nokia's €5.82 billion and 7-cent loss versus the Street's €6.5 billion and 11-cent loss expectation. My apologies for any confusion caused by the error.

This topic has drawn much response, most of it positive clearly from those that agree with the Boy Scouts of America and its program, while other comments have been less than positive in nature. Thank you all for your comments.
I am not going to post a retraction, none is needed, and as it states at the bottom, these are my opinions and not those of the BSA. I would like to think that I represent the views of the BSA and try to be consistant with why we do this thing called Scouting.
The bottom line is we are here to provide a program to the Boys.
Being a Scoutmaster is job that I take seriously, a job that does not turn off after the meetings on Monday, or I put away with my camping gear on Sunday night after a camp out.
I think we need to remember that we are here (I am here) for the Scouts. Without them, we really don't need to keep showing up.
I stated in my Discrimination post that you can measure discrimination by its intent. I truly believe that there is no hate in providing a safe environment to Scouts. I also do not think there is hate in asking individuals to take an oath and stand by it.
If you don't believe in a God.. so what… I am sure that there is something out there for you, but I do not think the Boy Scouts of America should have to change it's values and beliefs to meet the needs of the few. Understanding that this is a private organization and there are other choices out there.
Ok.. enough about that.
So why do we do Scouting?
Well I for one have been in Scouting since I was about 8 years old. My Dad was a Scoutmaster and his Dad was too. I love the outdoors and love to test my skills. I have two sons, one is a Life Scout right now, and the other is finishing up his requirements for First Class. I love to watch them and the other guys in the Troop develop and grow into responsible young men.
I love that using the eight methods to achieve the Aims we can put together a program that keeps the Scouts engaged in Scouting, even though they are getting Girl friends, gaining interest in cars, and have lots of homework.
Scouting offers so much to these young men. To know that we have an effect on how they are going to be better citizens, men of Character, and that they won't be couch potatoes, is rewarding.
To follow the boys on a twenty five mile backpack trip and see them test skills and themselves is the best pay raise a guy can get.
So why do we do this?
Well, its not to nit pick and find fault in the program.. after all we are the program, or at least we execute it. If the program fails, it is because we failed it. And that means we failed the boys.
And that is why we do this.
The Scouts!
Happy Scouting!

What a day
I almost reached a milestone today in my project at work today. I told my boss, and he's expecting a demo tomorrow. Right after he left, I found a major bug that could take a while to fix. I feel like I was running the last few meters (or yards) of a marathon and discovering I had two miles left.
Oh well...
Mono beta 1 is out! I think the .Net platform is great and to see it coming to life on Linux is even greater! Good job to those who worked on it. I can't wait to use it! I can't wait to help!
At least, the first step to becoming a helper is completed. Linux is installed and working! :)
Lots to read... Not feeling confortable with it yet. Psychologists should right about the Linux Culture Shock... You know, just like when you travel. The first thing you experience is awe. Everything is a new extrordinary experience. Then comes the depression (usually when most people quit and go back home... or Windows). Finally, you adapt.
I'm at step 1!
good evening to all!

Proposal uses environment funds for sand mining inspections
Budget committee to review sand mining plan
MADISON, Wis. - Wisconsin's budget-writing committee is scheduled to review provisions in Gov. Scott Walker's spending plan that would pull money from the state's environmental management fund to cover sand mining inspections.
Money in the environmental management fund comes from a number of sources; including fees landfills pay the state, vehicle environmental impact fees and pesticide fees. The money goes toward recycling, cleaning up contaminated land and fighting pollution run-off from farm fields.
Walker's 2013-15 budget calls for using nearly $447,000 from the fund to enable the Department of Natural Resources to add sand mine compliance and inspection to the responsibilities of three to four existing staffers.
The Joint Finance Committee is expected to take up the language Tuesday. The panel could approve it as written, delete it or revise it.

Comply with FATCA now – but think to the future!
By Chris McAuely, Director of Fraud & Financial Crime, SAS
Tax evasion is a hot topic. Not least because virtually every advanced economy in the world is being held back by a mountain of public debt. Governments want to close tax loopholes, while national electorates want to see wealthy individuals and multi-national companies pay their fair share into public coffers.
According to The Economist, around $20 trillion of unpaid personal and company tax is stashed away in tax havens. The EU claims that around €1 trillion in revenues is lost annually to tax evasion and avoidance in its member states.
In 2010, legislators on Capitol Hill estimated that the U.S. Treasury loses as much as $100 billion annually to offshore tax non-compliance. Their response was to pass the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). The objective is to stop US citizens from hiding income and assets overseas by forcing foreign financial institutions (FFIs) to disclose information about their American clients. To comply, FFIs will need to be able to identify US-tax liable individuals and entities at the point of on-boarding. They will also be required to carry out periodic sweeps of their account base and provide information about any clients that are potentially US-tax liable.
Governments have a very strong motivation to worktogether to close tax loopholes.
The IRS has a big stick
As of July 2014, financial institutions that fail to comply with FATCA will face two major sanctions. The first is a direct one from the US authorities: the United States will withhold at source 30 percent of any income originated from US domiciled assets (for example, US Treasury Bonds) owned by the bank. The second is indirect but is compelling for smaller financial institutions: because all of the Tier 1 banks trading in US dollars require their correspondents to be FATCA-compliant, an institution that does not participate in FATCA will effectively be placing itself outside the international banking network. It will no longer be able to work with the big boys.
Moreover, the IRS will deem recalcitrant any account holders who fail to provide the FFIs with documentation required under FATCA. The FFI would then also be obligated to deduct a 30 percent withholding tax on any payment credited to their accounts.
Who is affected?
FATCA is more extensive in scope than many realize. Any FFI with American clients will need to comply with FATCA. This includes banks (savings banks, commercial banks, savings and loans associations, thrifts, credit unions, building societies and cooperative banks); the investment and insurance industry (broker dealers, clearing organizations, trust companies, custodial banks, retirement plan custodians, annuity contracts, cash value insurance contracts); and the asset management and fund industry (mutual funds, funds of funds, private equity, venture capital and investment vehicles).
What specifically do you need to do now?
FFIs need to put systems and processes in place covering three broad areas:
- Documentation: capturing process changes and analyzing the customer base
- Withholding: building functionality for withholding on recalcitrant account holders
- Reporting: building and sustaining a reporting model for all US individuals to cover account balances and gross payments
Inter-governmental agreements
However, it isn't quite that simple. While some institutions are well advanced in their efforts to comply with FATCA, others are waiting for guidance and specific instructions from their local regulators. In some cases, Inter-Governmental Agreements (IGAs) have been concluded for the provision of data to the United States only; other agreements have been reached for reciprocal sharing. In many other countries IGA negotiations have not yet been concluded, which means regulatory guidance is limited or entirely absent. All of this means that multi-national FFIs face an unclear regulatory reporting environment, one which will depend on the specific nature of, or absence of, the IGAs within specific tax jurisdictions.
The broader picture
But it doesn't stop there. Tax evasion is also high on the agenda internationally. The problem for FFIs, however, is that they simply don't know how the compliance landscape will look in years to come. No one does.
While the United States has taken the lead on cross-border tax evasion with the introduction of FATCA, financial institutions also need to keep an eye on the broader international dimension. The issue was on the agenda at both the G8 and G20 summits and it is only a matter of time before FFIs face new client identification regulations.
An enterprise case management approach
Given that it will be some time before an international consensus is reached on cross-border tax evasion, we advise FFIs to put in place a reporting framework that is flexible, scalable and extensible enough to cope with whatever new requirements may arise.
This will require some up-front investment, because the robustness of current and future risk and compliance applications depends above all on having high quality data that is integrated across the organization. But once these solid foundations are in place, you have the flexibility to build applications to deal with whatever the regulator can throw at you in terms of know-your-customer and financial crimes management.
Financial institutions have been through a similar scenario with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. In the case of AML, it took a few years before an international consensus grew around the kind of national legislation needed to address the challenge, but countries have learned from each other and the regulatory environment is much the same in all advanced economies. The same will hold true of ATE – but the process will probably be faster for two reasons: first, there are international bodies such as the OECD driving international agreements; and second, with most of the world's leading economies suffocating under the debt burden, governments have a very strong motivation to work together to close tax loopholes.

Fuel oil poisoning occurs when someone swallows, breathes in (inhales), or touches fuel oil.
This is for information only and not for use in the treatment or management of an actual poison exposure. If you have an exposure, you should call your local emergency number (such as 911) or the National Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
Note: This list may not include all sources of fuel oil.
Seek immediate medical help. Do NOT make a person throw up unless told to do so by poison control or a health care professional.
If the chemical is on the skin or in the eyes, flush with lots of water for at least 15 minutes.
If the chemical was swallowed, immediately give the person water or milk, unless instructed otherwise by a health care provider. Do NOT give water or milk if the patient is having symptoms (such as vomiting, convulsions, or a decreased level of alertness) that make it hard to swallow.
If the person breathed in the poison, immediately move him or her to fresh air.
Determine the following information:
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
See: Poison control center - emergency number
The health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate. You may receive:
You may be admitted to the hospital.
How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received. The faster you get medical help, the better the chance for recovery.
Extensive damage to the mouth, throat, and stomach are possible. The outcome depends on the extent of this damage. Damage can continue to occur for several weeks after the poison was swallowed.
The main danger with swallowing kerosene is accidentally swallowing it into your lungs. It can also get into your lungs if you throw up kerosene you have swallowed. The kerosene can cause you to have serious lung damage. Getting a large amount into your lungs can cause you to stop breathing.

Where I stayed
Welcome to the first part of our India trip: Mumbai.
Well, we are here in India. To quote David's words exactly: "Fuck". We arrived at 04:15 to torrential rain (We knew it was monsoon time) and were met at the airport by our Hotel 'chauffeur' who drove at about 80mph irregardless of traffic lights, potholes or people crossing! The taxis are like something out of George and Mildred - yellow and black and there are millions of them, all with boots rammed full of luggage with rope to hold the boot closed.
When we got to our hotel, the very poshly named "Chateau Windsor" (!), it was hilarious. We were met by 6 members of Hotel staff all togged up in floor length Frank Spencer brown rain coats and brown fisherman hats
After a fantastic sleep, we ventured out. That's when we were instantly thrown into an absolute sensory saturation. The humidity was stifling. A can't-catch-your-breath humidity. Then it was just a cacophony of Hooting: Cars, taxis, buses hooting at everything. The intimidation of hords of wide-eyed locals staring and rushing towards you like a tsunami pushing us back pleading to buy their wares. Dogs acting dead on pavements, women begging under trees, children washing in deep monsoon puddles, and the smell. Oh my god, the smell. A smell that invades your nostils of rotten drains all over the city...accompanied by piles of litter under trees, in the gutter. Everything is so basic, so primitive, yet there are some modern glistening buildings rising up in the midst of decaying, lichen-strewn tenement blocks
We inadvertently found the tourist information bureau - another massive run down 1960's block and after one hour we had a train ticket to Delhi for 3 days time which involved a long long primitive paper-trail process.
We then decided to just walk and explore. We got accosted twice by women with babies asking for no money but milk and we had to ignore them and said "No" over and over until they got bored of following us. There are millions of women with babies begging - where do you stop? harsh and heartless perhaps of us but this advice we were given. We found an air conditioned department store and both rushed in and were so happy we could have cried!! it was a blissful retreat from the ear-canal bleeding mayhem and nasal infringement of everyday Mumbai life. It was like a small Debenhams so we sat in the coffee shop and shortly agreed we were both too scared to go back out!!
Eventually, we walked back to our Hotel past bare-bottomed children sitting on filthy pavements, past numerous women sitting in sari's on pavements passing the time of day, past carts pulled by cows, past horses led by shoe-less men, through rush hour traffic of yet more ear-canal invasion of hooting, and people escaping being run over. And the smell. Don't forget the smell of Mumbai everywhere.
Not wishing to be too negative about Mumbai, everyone is sooo friendly here
The bills always get handed to David (not too dissimilar to UK though I suppose) and when buying stuff although I barter vigerously, it's David who gets addressed mostly. David and I were really in shock when we first got here. We just walked around the city, observing, listening, smelling without saying a single word to each other. Then we got to Leopold's Cafe, a popular tourist hang out serving beer and all sorts of international food. We sat there in silence again, in the corner, just people-watching. It was surreal. We didn't know what to say to each other! It's just too much emotion. Too much poverty. It's just a brain-mash of cultural differences.
Every guide book and every traveller will tell you, going to India is a total culture shock and this is the best bit of
factual information I have ever received about India so far
We went to "Gaylord" for a curry. It was fantastic. Packed full of locals and done out like a palace with gold mirrors, exotic wallpaper, chandeliers... After a mind-shag of a day, I had a stiff G & T and quickly came round to the appeal of India...! the food was beautiful, service was excellent.
One day we went for a wander round the town to get our bearings once again. We walked to the Gateway of India which was amazing but covered in scaffolding! We went for a very civilised Tea in the nearby globally acclaimed Taj Mahal Hotel. Tea in bone china cups and saucers, starched white linen, staff waiting on your every move and a pianist playing Glen Medeiros on a grand piano...what more could a girl want in life?!! We then met a very nice tour guide and he seemed genuine.
We got into his air conditioned car and he showed us the most amazing sights of Mumbai. We saw both the illegal and the legal red light districts - not something to be found in our Dorling Kindersley Guide Book to India!! The legal area of prozzies is actually very good..the girls get looked after well by local doctors up and down the road. You see all the girls in scarlett dresses and fushia pink saris waiting outside shops, pouting, with their long hair swishing in the breeze
We saw cows, goats and chickens wandering round passing the time of day with everyone. We saw streets of heart-wrenching corrogated and carboard constructed 2- storey huts where families of approx 6 lived in about 2 sq metre, if that, but the scantily clad children were laughing and playing and seemed really happy. Better the devil you know I suppose. Mothers and daughters sat outside weaving bamboo for furniture to sell. It was literally cardboard city with all their washing hanging up outside and their campfires to cook food on.
We saw this massive laundry area where alot of the hotels send their washing. It's just a massive plot next to the railway lines. The area is divided up into separate open booths where scores of men scrub laundry with bars of soap and slap it against the concrete walls of the booths to rinse them out. Above them, hangs lines and lines of people's washing. Women don't do this work apparently as it's too hard for them! too right! It's an amazing sight. However, David got chased quite literally back to our taxi by a begging woman with a baby. We ignored her but she was banging on the taxi windows right up until we drove off. Hard to dismiss. He insists the baby isn't his, but she did seem very persistant.
We saw Gandi's house which was beautiful and really moving. We saw his vast library of books, saw his room where he worked and meditated, saw hundreds of photos of him around the world and read vast letters written by him, one of them to Hitler imploring him to use non-violent means to settle his mad berzerker like expansionist dreams
We visited the Jain temple which is a Hindu temple of the most exquisite marble decorative work on stairs and porches, sacred elephants and idols carved and painted in rich, deep colours, it was just a visual saturation. Locals could come in at any time of the day and pray to the many idols that sat inside gold-caged booths. We had to take our shoes off and were told to never turn our back on the idols as we walked round. So David and I were walking like crabs everywhere!!! Every time someone prayed they rang the nearby bell. It was very sacred, meditative place indeed until we walked past one sari-clad lady sitting in the lotus position praying before an idol and her mobile went off with the ringtone "Fame!! I wanna live forever.....!!!"
Our final place was our taxi driver's 'friend's' store which sold carpets, pashminas, clothes, jewellery, everything.
Absolutely gorgeous goods and although I came tremblingly close to buying an amber necklace with a stone the size of Big Ben, and a pashmina with exquisite hand-sewn orange and brown pattern on black fabric..oh and this black and cream linen flowery top...the prices were all twice the equivelant UK price so I decided not to
Today we checked out of the Frank Spencer Emporium and went to stay, for our final night in Mumbai, in the Taj Mahal Hotel. THE most exclusive hotel in Mumbai, the size of Heathrow!! We decided to rough it in cheap B & B's during our honeymoon but to try and have one night in a really posh hotel in every country we visit. OH MY GOD!!!! you should see this hotel. We booked into our Taj Club room (a very small suite room) in the morning and haven't left the hotel all day but have walked miles! there are designer gift shops, a book shop, chinese restaurant, middle eastern restaurant, Indian restarant, Italian restaurant, a bar which is the first licensed bar ever to open in India (License no. 1) where we had a G & T and played Carcassone looking out over the sea, a gym, spa, beauty salon, outdoor swimming pool with terrace fringed with palms and exotic flowers and wicker seating, a business centre, lounges, absolutely every single thing you could possibly require. The Hotel faces the Gateway of India and the sea and we are on the 6th floor so the view is stunning. You can sit and watch the tourists down by the Gateway of India all day
As soon as we got to the Hotel we dumped our stuff and went for a late breakfast in the Club Lounge - especially for Taj Club Guests. Tally HO! it was like being royalty, we had staff on our every move making sure we had everything we needed. Luxury.
However, I made a right tit of myself as usual and David almost spat his toast out at the waitress! Just before the waiter poured out my tea, I started making a comment to David, "do you know, I bet you get some really...."
and then I waited while the waiter poured out my tea into the cup and then into David's. So, I resumed my comment..."yeh, as I was saying, I bet you get some really snotty people stay here who treat these lovely people like slaves..'get me this and get me that'.." David nodded in agreement and then I immediately frowned at my teacup and said, "Darling, what...? there are tea leaves in my tea! I'm going to get another cup". I had absolutely no idea why my husband was crying and almost choking on his scrambled eggs!!! He said to me inbetween splutters of egg.."Lois...what was that comment you just made to me about snotty people??!!...Ooo: get me another cup of tea now...
Our last night here, we got dressed up and went for complimentary cocktails in the Club Lounge. While sipping we played cards and attracted the attention of Dennis our indian waiter. He was such a lovely boy. He said he played rummy alot and loved cards so David showed him some card tricks and he was like a little boy in Gamleys at Christmas! his eyes!! David taught him how to do one trick once and he remembered it instantly.
On our last day in Paradise at the Taj Mahal Hotel we booked ourselves in for a double massage preceeded by a jacuzzi and a steam. The jacuzzi is just one massive square bath with seats in that pummel water at your neck and back and the room is lit only with small candles. OH MY GOD!!!!! We had a full body massage which was just flaming beautiful with soft sleepy music, candles and oil that smells of cinammon and orange rubbed all over. OH MY GOD!! After 90 mins we were in heaven.
Final thoughts of Mumbai are: smelly, noisy, expensive but culturally fascinating and really friendly. Absolutely no regrets coming here so far. Very challenging emotionally but it's amazing experience. And we have both acquired the skill of blindly walking out in front of throngs of tuc-tucs, taxis, cows, goats and busses to cross the road.
Our next blog will be from Delhi. Keep reading, hope you enjoy.
Love, Lois & Hubs xxxx

Digital cameras are a good companion for capturing everyday moments - they are handy and offer automatic settings that save you time. However, sometimes the camera fails to focus on the subject automatically and it comes out blurry.
Refocus 4 solves this problem!
Home Deluxe edition works as a plug-in with Adobe and Corel products! See system requirements for a full list.
This comprehensive software dramatically improves the sharpness of blurry images. You can process the entire photo in one go or select certain parts to bring into focus and make the subject stand out against the background.
The software has three different modes: Refocus, Tilt-Shift, and Iris Blur.
Refocus mode makes blurred photos sharp and clear. You can re-focus the entire image or only certain parts
Tilt-Shift - when shooting an object or a landscape at a distance, you may notice that the picture looks hazy. Refocus will make the photo more distinct and more impressive.
Even if a photo looks sharp enough, there is always room for improvement. To draw attention to certain details, you can use selective focus. This allows you to separate the subject from the background by sharpening one part of the photo and blurring the rest.
Tilt-Shift mode also allows you to leave a straight strip of your photo in focus, with gradually blurred edges and smooth transitions.
This allows you to highlight certain parts of your photo and draw attention to the central aspects.
Iris Blur mode creates a shallow depth-of-field effect, blurring the background while keeping the main subjects in focus. In contrast to Tilt-Shift mode, this one lets you specify the shape of the sharp area (ellipse, rectangle). Real photographers can achieve this effect by opening aperture and using different lenses. With this program you can create a blurred background in a click.
Easy to use
You don't need special knowledge to achieve great results! The software is easy to use, even for beginners. To get you started quickly, the program offers a large number of presets. You can preview the results in real time and compare before and after states.
The software also comes with a full help guide (pdf) that explains exactly how to use the software.

I have been in contact with Jerry at Gunners Up, he was very persistant with voice mails and we eventually talked by phone. Jerry explained to me that they did not sell bird pouches for there box launcher. I am in need of a new bird poach for my box launcher. Mine is begining to rip near the seam. I believe this is from wear. If anyone knows where I can order a Gunners Up bird poach for a box launcher the info would bew appreciated. If I can not find a supplier I will be making a paturn and will be off to a Building Awning shop. Thanks for any help.

By Bill Minor
How would you like to pay a state sales tax to get your haircut? Well, pretty soon if you're somewhere in neighboring Louisiana and need to get your locks sheared, be prepared to see a sales tax added to your bill.
That's going to happen if Gov. Bobby Jindal gets his celebrated "tax swap" passed by the state Legislature when it meets in May.
Jindal is one of a pack of Republican governors planning to abolish their individual and corporate income taxes purportedly to stimulate economic development. To offset the income loss, Jindal, et al propose to raise the sales tax and eliminate dozens of exemptions from the sales levy, one of them haircuts.
This corporate tax cut phobia as an industry lure has amazingly picked up steam in Red states. Remember our Republican governor Phil Bryant has been boasting he wants Mississippi to be "business-friendly" in the tax-cutting department. So there's good reason to believe Bryant could be caught up in the tax-swap scheme.
Jindal, the swarthy 41-year-old Louisiana governor, has made no secret of the fact he is ambitious to play on a national stage in Republican politics. He rolled out his tax swap idea two weeks ago for public comment and boy oh boy, it came back – fast and furious. More than 250 clergy from religious groups statewide quickly pounced on Jindal's proposal, charging that his analysis that its impact would not be heavily borne by low income households was badly flawed and contrary to his claim was not revenue neutral. James Gill, the witty columnist for The Times-Picayune, branded Jindal's plan "A Tax Swap only the rich could love."
Even Jindal's own administration fiscal adviser, the paper observed "acknowledges that many businesses will pay more under the proposal." Fundamentally, the tax swap would hike Louisiana's sales tax rate from 4 percent to 5.88 percent, a 47 percent hike. While he would eliminate 76 exemptions from the existing rate, the proposal would keep the state's longtime exemption for groceries, a traditional bone of contention in Mississippi's own 7 percent sales tax rate. For historical purposes it should be noted that Mississippi was the birthplace of a statewide gross sales tax on goods back in 1932 when progressive Gov. Mike Conner pushed through a 2 percent sales levy, against angry protests by retail establishments. The Conner sales tax is credited with saving Mississippi from bankruptcy in the depths of the Great Depression.
Louisiana's top income personal income tax rate is 7 percent and the corporate rate slightly higher. Mississippi's top income tax rate for both individuals and corporations is 5 percent, where it has remained for three decades. No serious legislative attempt to hike the tax rate has been mounted in years, mostly because of the powerful manufacturing and business lobbies up at the state Capitol. Thus, Mississippi's regressive sales tax (including groceries) is the state's biggest revenue source with low income households picking up most of the tab. Oh yes, Jindal adds one sweetener to his tax swap to make it appear revenue neutral. He would stick $1.05 per pack on cigarettes. You can already smell the tobacco smoke blowing over this way, can't you?

I have been getting PM's in an attempt to discuss dentistry as a part of health care. I have always wanted to respect another's confidientiality but using PM's in order to hide their criticisms is in my opinion an abuse of PM's.
Today, I received this PM. I have left out one phrase which might identify the sender but in no way changes the context of the PM.
"A young woman had a mouthful of rotten teeth and abscesses. Says none of the dentists in town will see her. Her family DOCTOR has been taking care of her teeth?? My wife got two similar calls in the middle of the night to take care of teeth,l While the dentists were sound asleep in their cozy beds. What's up with that? Where's the emergency care? I hope this is an anomaly, as I'm very disappointed with the professionalism(lack thereof) of dentistry in this area."
Let it be known that I have no problem discussing the dental profession having been in dentistry for 35 years. I do not hide who I am or where I live nor my history of dental practice and where I practiced.
Anybody who wants to discuss this question or an other question about dentistry, I will be happy to try and answer it, so long as they make themselves known and above board.

Can a Stiffness Be Negative?
Henrik Sönnerlind December 5, 2016
In finite element modeling, you may encounter formulations where a force does not monotonically increase with displacement. You can see this property in many material models that include degradation of the material. Such behavior is represented by a negative stiffness. In this blog post, we discuss some examples of negative stiffness, including the physical backgrounds and numerical implications. These ideas are not confined to mechanical analysis, even though the term stiffness originates in that field.Read More

Say you are working on a modeling case where loads are moving in such a way that they cross over different mesh elements and boundaries during the simulation. In these cases, among other instances, you may want to apply a boundary condition to only part of the geometrical boundary or only under certain conditions. In this blog post, we'll discuss how you can utilize the flexibility of COMSOL Multiphysics to handle such situations.Read More

After recently encountering the equations of motion for rotating bodies for the first time, one of my sons came home with a number of interesting questions. His questions brought about a flashback, as I remembered sharing this sense of confusion when studying mechanics many years ago. In today's blog post, I will present two COMSOL Multiphysics models — one of a gyroscope and one of a spinning top — that illustrate the remarkable properties of rotating bodies.Read More

The most fundamental material model for structural mechanics analysis is the linear elastic model. Trivial as it may sound, there are some important details that may not be obvious at first glance. In this blog post, we will dive deeper into the theory and application of this material model and give an overview of isotropy and anisotropy, allowable values for material data, incompressibility, and interaction with geometric nonlinearity.Read More

Your finite element model will sometimes contain singularities — that is, points where some aspect of the solution tends toward an infinite value. In this blog post, we will explore the common causes of singularities, when and how to remove them, and how to interpret results when singularities are present in your model. While most of this discussion is in terms of structural mechanics, similar phenomena can also be found in many other physics fields.Read More

In Part 1 of this blog series, we discussed some of the considerations that you need to make when transforming your measured material data into a constitutive model. Hyperelastic materials were discussed in some detail. Today, we will have a look at how to use nonlinear elastic and elastoplastic materials, and show one way in which you can use your measured data directly in COMSOL Multiphysics.Read More

We often get requests of the type "I would like to just enter my measured stress-strain curve directly into COMSOL Multiphysics". In this new blog series, we will take a detailed look at how you can process and interpret material data from tests. We will also explain why it is not a good idea to just enter a simple stress-strain curve as input.Read More

Buckling instability is a treacherous phenomenon in structural engineering, where a small increase in the load can lead to a sudden catastrophic failure. In this blog post, we will investigate some classes of buckling problems and how they can be analyzed.Read More

In structural mechanics you will come across a plethora of stress and strain definitions. It may be a Second Piola-Kirchhoff Stress or a Logarithmic Strain. In this blog post we will investigate these quantities, discuss why there is a need for so many variations of stresses and strains, and illuminate the consequences for you as a finite element analyst. The defining tensor expressions and transformations can be found in many textbooks, as well as through some web links at the […]Read More
