Sauteed Greens with Onions and Soy Sauce
One of my favorite meals in the city comes from downtown cult favorite restaurant Lovely Day, and isn't really so much a meal as it is a couple of sides. Namely, their sauteed Chinese broccoli with ginger, garlic, and soy eaten with some plain white rice. Simple as can be, but somehow deeply satisfying and healthy to boot. I've tried to replicate the recipe a few times using various dark leafy greens like chard and broccoli rabe, but was never able to get it quite right. Until I saw this recipe in Gwyneth's cookbook last weekend. (Of course, Gwyneth would be the one to nail this one.)
I chose to make this side dish with a beautiful bunch of dark kale I found at the market and did exactly as the recipe said, sauteing it up with good olive oil, some sweet caramelized onions and a splash of soy sauce. That's it. Easy. And, dare I say, even better than the original from Lovely Day. (Nothing quite beats homemade.) Try making it yourself and eat it for dinner with a scoop of nutritious brown rice. That's what I'll be doing. I mean, let's face it, with bikini weather just about a month away, we could all use a little more of these healthy greens in our lives. xo
Sauteed Greens with Onions and Soy Sauce
From My Father's Daughter, by Gwyneth Paltrow
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced
1 pound seasonal greens (kale, Swiss chard, etc.), stems removed and discarded, leaves washed and roughly torn
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onion, stirring occasionally for 5-7 minutes, or until just softened and a little crisp on the edges. Add about half the greens and the water--these will wilt significantly after a minute or two. Add the remaining greens and stir for another 3 minutes or until the greens are wilted but still maintain a little bite. Add the soy sauce, cook for one more minute, and serve.

Wine On A Spit
We got to thinking: people like BBQs. People like Wine. Why wouldn't people like BBQ'd wine?
Really, it's got everything people love about summer.
All you need to do is take a bottle of wine, put it on the spit and then roast it. Then, once you're done, you get a delicious bowl of piping hot wine with melted glass, cork, and paper. Wait, seriously? That doesn't sound appetizing at all. Who approved this idea?
This is wine, folks. It's meant for drinking, and drinking only. Well, and cooking pasta and stuff like that, but it's not meant to be a main course! Unless you're a species that only consumes wine, then, okay, yes, it can be a main course, but that's not the point!
This Cameron Hughes Summer BBQ red wine is meant to be enjoyed at your barbeque, in a normal wine glass, alongside a steak or whatever else you cook on your grill, assuming that whatever else isn't a bottle of wine.

Tootsie Roll
|This article may be in need of reorganization to comply with Wikipedia's layout guidelines. (July 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|This article may have too many section headers dividing up its content. (July 2016)
Tootsie Roll is a chocolate-like, taffy-like candy that has been manufactured in the United States since 1907. The candy has qualities similar to both caramels and taffy without being exactly either type, and does not melt while being transported during hot summer months.[1] The manufacturer, Tootsie Roll Industries, is based in Chicago, Illinois. It was the first penny candy to be individually wrapped in America.[2]
According to the official company history, founder Leo Hirshfield (Hirschfield) (d. 1922), an Austrian immigrant to the United States of America, started his candy business in a small shop located in New York City in 1896. The candy business was not his own; in 1896, Hirschfield, son of an Austrian candy maker, was an employee of the Stern & Staalberg company in Manhattan, New York, owned by Julius Stern and Jacob Saalberg. The first candy that Hirschfield created was Bromangelon Jelly Powder; he did not invent Tootsie Rolls until 1907, after patenting a technique to give them their unique texture. The first Tootsie Rolls were marketed in September 1908. After rising to vice-president and seeing the company change its name to Sweets Company of America in 1917 (after which Stern and Staalberg retired and the new management outranked him), Hirschfield resigned or was fired in 1920. He started Mells Candy, which went bankrupt, and as a result he committed suicide on January 13, 1922 in his room at the Monterey Hotel in Manhattan, leaving the note "I'm sorry, but I couldn't help it".[3] Hirschfield never ran a candy shop in Brooklyn.[4] Hirschfield named the candy after his daughter Clara, whose nickname was "Tootsie".
In 1935, the company was in serious difficulty. Tootsie Roll's principal supplier of paper boxes, Joseph Rubin & Sons of Brooklyn, concerned about the possible loss of an important customer, decided to acquire the troubled company. The company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange, but Bernard D. Rubin acquired a list of shareholders and approached them in person in order to purchase their shares. The Rubin family eventually achieved control of Tootsie Roll and agreed that Bernard Rubin would run the company as president. Under his leadership, the company was able to steadily increase sales and restore profits by changing the formula of the Tootsie Roll and increasing its size. Additionally, Rubin moved the company from Manhattan to a much larger plant in Hoboken, New Jersey, and guided the company successfully through the difficult war years during which vital raw materials were in short supply. When he died in 1948, he had increased the sales volume twelve-fold.
After Bernard Rubin's death, his brother William B. Rubin served as president until 1962, when William's daughter Ellen Rubin Gordon took control. As of August 2015, she is chairman and CEO of the company,[5] having succeeded her late husband, Melvin Gordon, who was Chairman and CEO for many years.[6]
Tootsie Roll Industries (name adopted in 1966) is one of the largest candy manufacturers in the world. Approximately 64 million Tootsie Rolls are made daily.[7]
According to the company website, the original (and still current) recipe calls for the inclusion of the previous day's batch, a graining process that continues to this day. "As such, there's (theoretically) a bit of Leo's very first Tootsie Roll in every one of the sixty four million Tootsie Rolls that Tootsie produces each day."[8]
Korean War[edit]
During the Battle of Chosin Reservoir in 1950, mortar sections under the United States Marine Corps started to run out of mortar rounds. The radio men of these sections started requesting more rounds. There were too many nearby enemy anti-air emplacements however, and the risk that they might lose any airlifted supplies was too great, so they had to wait. After two days of waiting, all the mortar sections ran out of rounds. At this point they accidentally ordered hundreds of crates of Tootsie Roll candies instead of mortar rounds. This was because some elements of the United States military had used "tootsie rolls" as code for mortar rounds.[9]

Captain Tootsie[edit]
Captain Tootsie is an advertisement comic strip created for Tootsie Rolls in 1943 by C C Beck, Peter Costanza and Bill Schreider (1950 onwards). It featured the title character Captain Tootsie and his sidekick, a boy named Rollo (a black-haired boy), and three other young cohorts named Fatso (a red-haired boy), Fisty (a blonde boy), and Sweetie (a blonde haired girl).[10] It had stories in the form of full color one-page Sunday strips, black and white daily strips, and two issues of a comic book of the same title released by Toby Press. The advertisement comic was featured by many publishers and in the newspapers. Within the context of the stories, Captain Tootsie was quite strong and quicker to the punch than any of his enemies. His stories were light and "kid-friendly". Captain Tootsie's comic strip ads ended in the 1950s.
The Tootsie Roll jingle, "Whatever It Is I Think I See," was recorded at Blank Tape Studios, New York in 1976. It is still occasionally played today. It aired on television regularly for more than 20 years, mostly during Saturday morning cartoon programming. The jingle was sung by a nine-year-old, Rebecca Jane Weinstein, and 13-year-old David Johnson, the children of jazz musicians and friends of the song's composer. Originally David was to sing the solo "Whatever it is I think I see, becomes a Tootsie Roll to me," but his voice was changing and cracked on the high notes, so the solo was given to Rebecca. [11] [12] Rebecca still has the original reel-to-reel audio tape recording.[13]
The current U.S. ingredients of a chocolate Tootsie Roll are: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Palm Oil, Condensed Skim Milk, Cocoa, Whey, Soy Lecithin, Artificial and Natural Flavors[14]
In 2009, Tootsie Rolls became certified kosher by the Orthodox Union.[15]
Alternate flavors[edit]
In addition to the traditional cocoa-flavored Tootsie Roll, several additional flavors have been introduced. Known as Tootsie Fruit Chews, flavors include cherry, orange, vanilla, lemon, and lime. These varieties are wrapped in red, orange, blue, yellow and green wrappers, respectively. Tootsie Frooties come in numerous different fruit flavors including red strawberry, blue raspberry, grape, green apple, banana-berry, smooth cherry, fruit punch, pink lemonade, root beer, cran blueberry and watermelon.
In other countries[edit]
Tootsie Rolls have been introduced to Canada, Egypt, Mexico, Ireland, Aruba, United Kingdom, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Indonesia, Philippines, South Korea, Panama, Netherlands, Poland, Denmark, Norway, Singapore, Sweden, Finland, Austria, Australia, New Zealand, and Costa Rica.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Maybe Oakland's surprising streak against Seattle means little. The way the surging Athletics are playing, it could as easily be Tampa Bay, Texas or Toronto on the losing end of things.
The A's tied a major league mark with their 15th straight win over Seattle, getting six shutout innings from Dan Haren in a 4-0 victory over the Mariners on Wednesday night.
"I don't care who we're playing," second baseman Mark Ellis said. "We're taking advantage of our opportunities."
Ellis homered for the second time in three games with a three-run shot as the A's matched the 1974 Atlanta Braves for the longest winning streak against a division opponent since divisional play started in 1969, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. The Braves won 15 straight versus the San Diego Padres that year.
Yet Oakland has had a longer winning streak against one opponent, getting 16 straight victories against the New York Yankees from Sept. 9, 1989, through May 1, 1991.
Haren (11-9) struck out eight and didn't walk a batter to win his fifth straight start for the first-place A's, who increased their AL West lead to a season-best 6½ games over Los Angeles after the Angels lost 9-3 at Texas. It's Oakland's biggest advantage in the division since having a seven-game lead on Sept. 30, 1992.
Oakland, 12-2 in August, won its sixth straight game and 12th in 13 and sent Seattle to its season-worst seventh consecutive defeat and 16th in a row against the division.
The Mariners are 0-7 on their 11-game road trip that resumes Thursday with the opener of a four-game series in Anaheim.
"It's a learning process," manager Mike Hargrove said. "We're getting valuable lessons. The bad part of it is we're getting our butts kicked while it's going on. We'll come out of this."
Nick Swisher, who delivered the key hits in the first two games of the series for Oakland, drew walks in his first three plate appearances and scored the first two times -- including on a balk in the fourth.
Ellis, Oakland's former leadoff hitter now batting in the No. 9 spot, connected off Gil Meche (9-8) with a drive into the left-field seats with two outs in the second for his eighth homer of the year.
Justin Duchscherer, Joe Kennedy and Huston Street completed the 10-hit shutout for the A's, who have a 10-game winning streak against Seattle in the Coliseum.
The Mariners loaded the bases against Haren with one out in the fourth but he struck out Willie Bloomquist swinging and also got Ichiro Suzuki swinging on an 87 mph splitter. The right-hander, 5-1 in seven career starts against Seattle, recorded seven straight outs beginning with Bloomquist.
"My stuff was as good as it's been all year," said Haren, helped by a sensational catch from center fielder Mark Kotsay against the wall on Suzuki's hard-hit ball in the first. "I think in order to win so many games against one team you have to catch a few breaks."
Meche, who has allowed 29 runs over his last five outings, lost his third straight start and matched his career high by dropping a fourth consecutive decision. He is winless in six starts since a victory July 14 at Toronto.
He pitched the Mariners' lone win over the A's on April 6 at Safeco Field, but was tagged for four runs and six hits in 5 1/3 innings Wednesday.
Kotsay extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a seventh-inning double, while Adrian Beltre got a hit in his 12th straight game when he singled to left in the first for Seattle.
- Frank Thomas, who has 25 homers, drew just his second intentional walk of the season.
- The A's have won six straight series. It was their ninth series sweep of the season.
- Oakland drew 34,077 for its 10th sellout of the season.
- The Mariners indefinitely moved struggling fifth starter Joel Pineiro to the bullpen and promoted left-hander Jake Woods to take Pineiro's starting spot. The switch happened a day after Pineiro allowed a career-high nine runs in an 11-2 loss to Oakland, his fifth straight defeat against the A's this season and his third loss in a row overall. He has only one victory since June 20.
- LHP Eric O'Flaherty made his major league debut in the seventh after Seattle selected his contract from Triple-A Tacoma earlier in the day. The Mariners optioned infielder Greg Dobbs to Tacoma.

An AIG of conservative enlightenment? Hardly.
Research ››› ››› KARL FRISCH
Angry at AIG for handing out executive bonuses to the very people who helped sink the company in the first place? Well, if conservative leader Rush Limbaugh is to be believed, you're now part of an angry "lynch mob" ginned up by the Obama administration.
Angry at AIG for handing out executive bonuses to the very people who helped sink the company in the first place? Well, if conservative leader Rush Limbaugh is to be believed, you're now part of an angry "lynch mob" ginned up by the Obama administration.
The conservative talker's bizarre defense of AIG's dumbfounding excess in the midst of such economic calamity is undoubtedly alarming, but he's hardly alone. Little Limbaughs throughout the media are taking El Rushbo's cue, lining up, pitchforks in hand, rallying to the defense of the little guys at the bazillion-dollar insurance behemoth.
Discussing the possibility that members of Congress may impose a 90-percent tax on the shady bonuses, Fox News golden boy Sean Hannity chirped, "Whether you like the AIG bonuses or not, think about this: They're going to make a law, and they're going to tax every single penny of it, virtually all of it."
Not to be outdone, Fox's Glenn Beck, doing his best Limbaugh impersonation, struck a similar chord, saying, "[W]hat I really, really don't like here is the idea that we are willing to give in to mob rule, and that's what this is." That's two reallys -- boy, he must be serious.
By the way, this is the same Glenn Beck who has taken to broadcasting from a special "doom room" -- his words -- hosting survivalists prophesying our impending demise as a nation. It's also the same Glenn Beck who has articulated his belief that the White House may be using FEMA to set up "concentration camps" for conservatives in an effort to establish totalitarian rule. In fairness, he isn't sure this is happening, but thus far his "research" has been unable to "disprove" it. I guess if anyone knows how to incite an angry, irrational, conspiracy-prone mob, it would be Glenn Beck.
This pro-corporate, pseudo-populist trio and their brethren in the conservative media have exposed an emerging rift within the conservative movement that pits Republicans in Congress against right-wing media elements.
Abandoning their extensive collective record of opposing efforts to cap corporate executive pay and perks, along with their steadfast hostility toward tax increases of any kind, Republicans in the House and Senate have embarked on a hypocritical campaign to lay blame for the AIG bonus controversy at the Obama administration's feet -- a campaign that's been aided by a media that routinely fail to report a key fact: that it was President Bush's Treasury Department that worked with the Federal Reserve in carrying out last year's bailouts and bought AIG stocks, despite the existence of the bonus contracts everyone is so justifiably upset about today. That's right -- this is in large part one of the many "welcome to the new job, sorry we wrecked the place" gifts left for President Obama by the Bush crowd.
I know conservatives would like us all to forget about the Bush presidency, but this "Obama's solely to blame for the AIG bonuses" baloney borders on willful ignorance.
So it's laughable now to see Republicans criticizing Obama and congressional Democrats in the media over a provision in February's economic recovery and reinvestment act that restricted the ability of companies receiving federal funds to pay employee bonuses in the future because this aspect of the legislation wasn't retroactive.
Think they would have supported such a move in the first place?
With little pushback from reporters who should know better, conservatives are certainly trying to leave that impression, despite repeatedly decrying government intervention in executive compensation.
When Sen. Mel Martinez (R-FL) said, "What executives have done is troubling, but it's equally troubling to have government telling shareholders how much they can pay the executives," did he sound like someone serious about cracking down on these post-bailout bonuses? What about Sen. Bob Bennett's (R-UT) statement that he is "generally troubled by wage and price control, no matter how logical it may appear," or Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), who said that "it's a sad day in America when the government starts setting pay, no matter how outlandish they are"?
A sad day indeed -- for consistency.
As we continue to confront the most difficult of economic times, the right continues to battle its lack of relevance, flailing from one political tactic to another in the desperate search for any semblance of a cohesive identity or message.
Yes, times are really, really tough (thanks, Glenn) for the conservative movement -- perhaps they could use a bailout. They'd certainly benefit from some fresh ideas.

Laura Vazquez to Run in USA Junior XC Champs
Jan. 31, 2013
Freshman Laura Vazquez will represent San Diego State at the 2013 USATF Junior Cross Country Championships Saturday in St. Louis.
Vazquez will compete in the Junior Women's 6K, which begins at 11:30 a.m. CT. The junior race, where all competitors must be under the age of 20, features some of the best high school and college freshmen in the country. The top-six finishers in the event will qualify to represent Team USA at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland, on March 24.
Many of the top distance runners in America have competed in the USA Junior Cross Country Championships, including Jenny Simpson (Barringer) and Jordan Hasay for the women, and German Fernandez, Dathan Ritzenhein and Matt Tegenkamp for the men.
The 6,000-meter course at Forest Park, home of the 1904 World's Fair and 1904 Olympic Games, has been described as fast but fair with flat to rolling terrain and good footing.
Vazquez is coming off a fantastic freshman season with the Aztecs, where she was the top runner on the team twice and in the top four in all seven races. Vazquez finished with three top-five finishers, including a runner-up showing in her collegiate debut at the UCSD Opener on Aug. 31. She ended up taking 38th at the Mountain West Championships and 105th at the NCAA West Regional Championships, and posted collegiate-best times of 18:34.0 in the 5K (Oct. 19 at the Fullerton Invitational) and 21:40.0 in the 6K (Nov. 9 at the NCAA West Regionals).
Results will be posted on the USATF website after the race, while the live webcast can be found here.

The video below explains how to fill out and use the template. Questions on the template should be sent to email@example.com.
In the webinar below, Norm Suchar reviews how to complete the Continuum of Care Spending Plan Template and answers questions regarding the template.

The president came to believe Shamir misled him on the settlement issue, or flat-out lied to him.
By the time I finished doing this it had become a flat-out race.
Because Americans worship—we just flat-out love—larger-than-life criminals.
To say on national television yesterday morning that the NRA lied, just flat-out say it, is amazing.
Cancer is the big concern, but research in this area has been inconsistent and, in some cases, flat-out confounding.
Old Don said flat-out that he took the girl for both him and his son.
A couple of weeks ago it was Bret Stephens flat-out calling Hagel an anti-Semite for using the term "Jewish lobby" in 2008.
But those rumors were more than exaggerated—they were flat-out wrong.
This caused some concern over his meager fuel supply since his plan called for some flat-out jetting later on.
He believed in the New Work, believed in it with every fiber of his being, but an undiverse portfolio was flat-out irresponsible.

Police in Poland have clashed with far-right youths during a march marking national independence day. It is the third year in a row the march has turned violent.
Police said the groups torched cars, threw firecrackers and set fire to a guard's booth in front of the Russian Embassy – a symbol for some Poles of repression during Soviet rule. Four officers were hospitalized in the clashes and around a dozen people were detained.
"There is no justification for hooliganism," Poland's Foreign Ministry spokesman Marcin Wojciechowski wrote on Twitter, in an apology to Russia.
The march, initially peaceful, attracted several thousand protesters, many of whom chanted slogans brandished Polish flags, and chanted slogans such as "God, honor, fatherland." Some were calling for the resignation of the center-right government of Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
A few dozen then broke away from the group and attacked a city-centre building where left-wing radicals occupied a squat.
It is the third consecutive year the annual event commemorating Poland's national independence day has ended in clashes between rioters and riot police, prompting some Warsaw residents to call on city officials to ban it.
Elsewhere in the country, many Poles held peaceful events in memory of the country's regaining independence on November 11, 1918 following World War I.
The march coincided with the launch of the UN's COP19 climate change conference in Warsaw.

I got the dreaded p0420 on my 04 WRX Wagon that I got about 9 months ago. I am pretty confident the dealer that sold it to me cleared it so it wasn't noticeable if you didn't know to look for it when you test drove it. Came on about 200 miles after I bought the car. Didn't realize the nightmare it was or I would have gone striaght back to them. 6 months later still fighting it I realize I really botched it waiting to long to put it on them.
So, first attempt was replace the rear 02 sensor. Cleared the code, came back 200 miles later (basically one cycle I think).
Second Step was new rear Cat, got a Magnaflow made to exact OEM specs according to them and it was the exact same size and whatnot. Cleared the code, came back in one drive cycle.
Step Three, replaced the front 02 or fuel air sensor depending on who you ask. Cleared the code, came back in basically one drive cycle.
Step four, replaced the front Cat, Dealer said this was the problem, so did a cat shop who checked the temperature. Cleared the code. Came back after several drive cycles or about 900 miles of driving. The cat shop says that there is a precat before the turbo? Anyone know anything about this. The car had 164k on it when I got it. It has 170k on it now. There is no indication of any modifications what so ever, one owner car, mostly dealer serviced. Had Subaru cats on it when I got it. Not even the air filter has been modified so I seriously doubt any tune or exhaust mod has ever been done. Replacing the front cat actually did improve the mileage which makes me think this was definitely bad and contributing or would throw it. THe car runs well, though occasionally I get a slightly rough idle. I have put a temp gun on the manifold and all four cylinders are running about the same temp so I don't think there is a cylinder not firing or anything causing that, it could really be fine there and I am just overly sensitive as I am frustrated trying to figure this out. Not sure who to turn too, the Dealer just pulled the code and said put a new one of these on. No actually diagnosis like checking the cat with a temp gun. Thoughts?
Oh, it has a new timing belt and water pump, new ac/belts, etc. I haven't changed the plugs yet, that was gonna be next.

What font should you use today? With the hundreds of choices in InDesign, you might have to try two or three (or 50!) before you find exactly the right one for your layout.
But InDesign CC has a few cool features that allow you to test fonts quickly and in a more fun and interactive way.
I'll show you how in this week's InDesign Secrets.

Have you ever wanted to re-create the effect seen on covers of big magazines like Sports Illustrator and Vogue—the kind where the masthead appears to be behind one part of the cover image and in front of another part?
It used to take a million-dollar machine to create the effect. Today, you can achieve the same results with a few clicks in InDesign. I'll show you how with this week's InDesign Secrets.
By David Blatner | Thursday, April 30, 2015
Did you know InDesign has a feature that lets you automatically calculate and display the last page number of your layout? And it's incredibly easy to add, using the Type > Text Variables menu.
But what if your last page is on a different layout—say in a different chapter in a book? In that case you have to use a cross reference instead.
In this episode of InDesign Secrets, I show you how to create a cross reference, point it at text or a text anchor, and format it to display the last page number of a book spanning multiple layouts.

The long shadow is a fun, trendy effect and it's a great way to make flat text and icons stand out—like those used to represent apps in iOS and Android.
Unlike a soft-edged drop shadow, though, the long shadow can't be achieved with the click of a button in InDesign.
But this week's InDesign Secrets shows you how to create a long shadow in InDesign in just a few steps. You'll also learn how to move your design over to Illustrator and use a shortcut there to create a slightly more refined version of the same effect.
By David Blatner | Thursday, April 2, 2015
InDesign is a powerful document-formatting tool, but there are still some tasks that Microsoft Word performs better.
One of those tasks I hear the most complaints about is putting boxes around or behind paragraph, a feature Word calls paragraph borders. So in this episode of InDesign Secrets, I show you a hack for mimicking paragraph borders in InDesign. Unfortunately, there's no single button, checkbox, or effect you can apply, but using rules and tables, you can approximate the effect.
Watch this week's free movie to learn more.
By David Blatner | Wednesday, March 18, 2015
Start your InDesign document off on the right foot: on the left-hand page.
Existing layouts can be a pain to change; InDesign won't let you drag right-facing pages over to the left. But with the two tricks shown in this week's episode of InDesign Secrets, you can move spreads so that your document starts on the left. Watch and see!

Ever open an InDesign document only to encounter the dreaded "missing links" dialog?
In this super-short episode of InDesign Secrets, I introduce a fast way to find and re-link missing files: files on your hard drive or even on a connected server.

InDesign comes with many stroke styles built in: thick strokes, thin strokes, dotted strokes.
But what if you can't find exactly the stroke you're looking for? You can make your own stroke styles in InDesign — from the Stroke panel menu.
Striped, dotted, or dashed!

A new API for external websites
As a result of our continuous strive to improve our services, we've created a new, special API function for external websites. By doing so, we would like to meet the needs of those developers who try to make their own contribution to the bitcoin community - be it creating and improving applications or creating various graphs and price comparison websites. Thanks to these efforts the life within the bitcoin community becomes easier and also, at the same time, probably easier to grasp for those who are still bitcoin novices.
Our newly introduced API function will allow the developers to get all the necessary information they need in one simple call. We hope that you, developers, see this new function as an interesting opportunity, so we can therefore contribute together to the development of the bitcoin community, helping to raise awareness not just of bitcoin, but altcoins as well.
What information can be obtained using this application?
In one, single API call the developer can mainly obtain information on which currency pairs we've supported in the last 24 hours, their turnover and the turnover denominated in bitcoins.
We hope that his function finds its use especially on websites that compare particular currencies or exchanges against each other.
We've included all the necessary info in our API documentation which can be accessed here: http://docs.coingi.apiary.io
Coingi has been launched!
You are just looking at the result of 20 months' constant hard work. At the beginning we set ourselves a daring goal: to build a decentralized, scalable, and of course stable exchange where everyone is able to buy and sell Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies according to their own consideration.
We will not conceal the fact that we had to overcome a range of problems and ponder the tiniest details in order to succeed in our mission. The original launch plan had to be postponed by several months in order to accomplish more detailed tuning and testing. However, the exchange system now reflects all the invested effort and the delay has been worth it absolutely. The result of our hard work is a bullet-proof exchange with automated processes which can be envied by even the classic online exchanges.
In projects of this type and focus, one can't afford to make even the tiniest mistake, that is why we have invested most of our time to testing against all security risks and to simulations of various attacks by hackers and other varieties of cybercrime. Thanks to that we have managed to build a robust information system which is not only safe, but also excellently scalable.
The Coingi cryptoexchange system runs on approximately 30 servers which communicate together via an encrypted VPN network. All communication is signed in a way that these processes cannot be interrupted in any way. The aforementioned scalability enables us to keep increasing the number of servers indefinitely. We aren't even limited by the location of the servers, frankly we can be everywhere.
Only the best for our customersUsers have a very clearly organized and intuitive web interface which communicates with the system exclusively via API. It is for reasons of speed and the aforementioned scalability. Thanks to that we are able to provide a full API interface to everything we offer our users.
We are also preparing a wide localization for our program. Coingi has been translated into more than 10 languages and we would be very thankful if you helped us extend these translations much more. It is a smooth process thanks to a service called Crowdin. Please find more information on translations and how you can contribute in the footer of the website.
We would be delighted if you tried our system out and eventually even sent us your tips and notes on the site's possible improvements regarding its functionality. We will definitely address them in detail, because Coingi is here primarily for You!
The launch date of the service is closer than you think!
After several months of development we would like to announce the launch date of COINGI.
At the moment, we finished the process of development and we started testing the beta version of COINGI system. Which means that all parts of the system are programmed, API is ready, user interface is complete, data synchronization and data migration are set and servers of individual subsystems are connected. All operational processes are defined, so it is time to start testing in full operation.
The benefits of the testing operation
Speed and stability
We will work on every detail of the stability of trading before we launch the full operation. During the beta version testing, we will focus mainly on the ability to process a big amount of users' commands. The stability of the system will be guaranteed even during 100 000 transaction per second and even during the shutdown of some servers.
We focus on a detailed examination of all potential threads that could compromise the security of the system. We want to guarantee 100% security of the service in full operation. That is why we devote enormous efforts to security testing and why the realization of these tests takes the majority of testing time. We employ security experts and we also hired an independent external audit to implement and verificate the results of the tests.
The majority of virtual currencies are saved in offline mode, which prevents online thefts. Online wallets use ony certain amount of money, that is sufficent for the operation of the platform at the moment. In case of large transactions, the funds are saved of withdrawn from offline wallets through controlled process, that guarantees full protection. The whole platform is protected by the system of internal control of account balances and currency movements.
Online wallets are fully protected! They work completely separately and they try to operate "intelligently". It means that they connect to the platform by themselves, they determine the requests for payment and they control if the requests correspond to reality. They check the collected data about transactions by using checksums and procedures, so the number of bitcoins at the website corresponds to the number of bitcoins recorded in the database.

"Keep the change."
That's what the girl in front of me at the gas station told the attendant. From where I stood, I could see the green numbers on the register display. She was leaving behind 53 cents.
53 cents!
I could do a lot with 53 cents.
I could buy two York Peppermint patties, or 5 Andes mints, from the candy display at the register.
Or I could combine it with the three dimes in my car's center console and buy a taco at Taco Bell.
Or I could get a rocking new sticker for my trapper-keeper from one of the coin machines.
Or I could get a super bouncy ball from the other coin machine.
Or I could add it to my coin jar at home, the one I put all my spare change into at the end of each day, the one that is slowly accumulating my vacation fund money.
I could be 53 cents closer to Harry Potter World.
I wondered about that girl for a while. Was she so financially secure that she didn't need to care about measly fractions of a dollar? Was she germophobic and worried that those coins had been in a small child's mouth, or maybe more than one small child's mouth? Was she trying to tip the gas station attendant? Or was it simply that she didn't care about coins (she was quick enough to grab that $10 bill though), having been raised in a world dominated by plastic and automatic bank drafts.
In any case, she left her change sitting on the counter. The attendant tossed the two quarters back into his drawer and put the three pennies into the tiny take-a-penny tray. I realized I felt sad for that girl. She obviously didn't have a dream or a financial goal to work towards. I stepped up to the counter and paid for my $37.92 in gas. When I got home, I put those eight cents into the jar.
8 cents closer to Harry Potter World.

Grand standing: Suzuki's long-running Grand Vitara will receive a much-needed update in late August.
13 July 2012
By TIM NICHOLSON
A FACELIFTED version of Suzuki's Grand Vitara will arrive in Australia in late August to freshen up the Japanese car-maker's aging SUV line-up.
Images of the Japanese-spec Escudo SUV show how the Grand Vitara will look when it arrives in Australian showrooms.
Changes to the styling, including a new front bumper and redesigned grille, differentiate the updated Grand Vitara.
The Vitara will also feature slightly darker headlight surrounds for a more aggressive look and it will come with new wheel designs.
The Japanese images show the spare wheel of the SUV has been removed from the rear of the vehicle, but Suzuki Australia communications manager Andrew Ellis told GoAuto that all Australian variants will continue to come with the spare on the tailgate.
Mr Ellis would not comment on potential mechanical changes or equipment specifications.
The outgoing Grand Vitara is powered by a choice of three engines, a 2.4-litre four-cylinder petrol, 1.9-litre diesel and 2.4-litre V6.
The third-generation Grand Vitara was released in Australia in 2005 and received an update in 2008.
Mr Ellis said the next-generation model was "at least a couple of years away".
While the Grand Vitara was one of the original compact SUVs on the market, the segment has grown considerably in recent years and Suzuki has faced tough competition in the form of the Toyota RAV4, Subaru Forester, Nissan X-Trail and Honda CRV to name a few.
In the first half of this year, sales of the Grand Vitara were down 0.8 per cent on the same period last year while the segment (medium SUV under-$60k) overall was up 23.2 per cent.
Suzuki's overall sales year-to-date are 6.1 per cent down on last year, but the popular Swift light car continues to sell well, capturing 10 per cent of its segment.
Suzuki cut the price of some Grand Vitara models in October last year and added standard equipment such as Bluetooth to the entry-level model.
The three-door Grand Vitara is available in base model only while the five-door includes Urban, Sport and Prestige variants.

The Heat of the Moment in Treatment:
Mindful Management of Difficult Clients
Mindful Management of Difficult Clients
From the jacket cover:
Have you experienced the anger, fear, doubt, and frustration that most clinicians feel but rarely put words to? Have you ever overreacted to a client in session or found yourself overwhelmed by the work with that client in your caseload? Are you looking for tools to manage your most "difficult" clients? Chances are, you're like all other clinicians: At times you play "tug-of-war" with those in your care. The Heat of the Moment in Treatment is for clinicians looking to explore, reassess, and transform the way they treat their most difficult clients. With carefully designed mindfulness-based exercises, self-assessments, and skill development activities, this workbook helps clinicians understand their own role in therapeutic interactions, as well as how to proactively respond to tough client behavior in ways that improve the prospects for successful treatment.
Author Mitch Abblett acts as a sensitive, expert guide, laying out a roadmap for the toughest of clinical encounters that almost all therapists face, whether seasoned or just starting out. His use of relatable metaphors, rhetorical questions, and stories from his own experience allows readers to reflect upon their own practice without feeling like there is one right way to deal with challenging clients.
The Heat of the Moment in Treatment will help clinicians move beyond assumptions and reactive impulses to their "difficult" clients. Readers will gain proactive clinical leadership skills, while learning how to expand mindful awareness of self and others to access compassion and empathy for any client—even when the "heat" of moment-to-moment interaction in session is hard to tolerate.
Praise for the book:
"The Heat of the Moment in Treatment" is an odyssey that should be undertaken by every clinician, however long they have been in practice. Written in a disarmingly genuine, humorous, self disclosing style, this book explores the barriers to effective communication that we as clinicians carry and how we can carry them in a lighter way. The book is packed full of practical and highly revealing self-exploratory exercises, case examples and easy to follow clinical guidelines for working with difficult clients in difficult situations. I can hardly wait to try some of these tactics in my own clinical practice! This book should be required reading in every graduate program for mental health and addictions training. It is destined to become a classic!"
--Kirk Strosahl Ph.D., author of Brief Interventions for Radical Change
"For all therapists who have a "difficult" client in their caseload, this well-written and personable book is a must read. Dr. Abblett challenges us to "lean in", or move toward, our behaviorally difficult clients, to be mindful of our emotional reactions to them, and to use what we learn to improve our therapy. Replete with terrific exercises that place us in session with these clients, both novice and seasoned professional can benefit from not just reading this volume, but from working through it."
--Phillip M. Kleespies, Ph.D.. Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Boston University School of Medicine/VA Boston Health Care System
"This is an incredibly useful book, written with honesty, courage and compassion. Within these pages you'll find a wealth of valuable insights and practical tips for those 'heated moments' in therapy sessions. This is an essential addition to the bookcase of any therapist interested in mindfulness-based approaches to psychotherapy."
--Dr, Russ Harris, best-selling author of The Happiness Trap
"The Heat of the Moment" should be required reading for all graduate students in psychotherapy and their professors. Abblett's book strikes a warm, compassionate, humorous, humble and human approach to dealing with challenging clients, that is also downright practical in its exercises and reflections. This wonderful book is not only a gift to therapists, but to anyone in human services / helping professions, whether a teacher, medical professional or clergy member who deals with challenging people."
--Dr. Christopher Willard, author of Child's Mind and Board Member for the Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy
"Dr. Abblett has created an invaluable and much needed tool for clinicians, young and seasoned alike, who are tested daily by difficult clients. With refreshing frankness, empathy, and no small degree of humor he explores and elucidates the nuances of negotiating the trickiest of therapeutic territory, finally bringing us face to face with the single most challenging aspect of our work: ourselves."
--Bobby Hermesch, LICSW, Milieu Director, The Manville School

"We hired manalive via Andy Gaskell entertainment after seeing them at Haigh hall wedding fayre. They are fantastic. They do a DJ set and a live band set, to whatever ratio you want. We werent convinced about a live band because they dont always manage to get everyone up dancing, but Stuart and Matt were brilliant - and they are absolutely mad so if you guests are up for a laugh then these are the guys for you. We had them from 3 pm (arriving at the venue to play through the meal) and then through to 1 am. Brilliant!"

"Shawl Hill were fantastic. We booked two years in advance and i guess at first when we were contacting them we got the feeling they thought we were a bit early in trying to organise things. But with 12 montsh to go it weas all happening and they were fabulous! They were fantastic with menus etc, as we had vegetarians, pregnant women, the lot really, that we had to cater for and SH did a brill job and EVERYONE commented on what a beautiful place it was! We definitely recommend them!"

Defiant dog
My 5 month old GSD is currently attending puppy school. She does ok at home, but at school she is totally uncontrollable! The second we get there, she goes WILD! The last month we have had to start using a choke collar and the trainer got her to heel perfectly. When there are multiple dogs, she pulls wildly and barks continuously. I want to get her socialized because I don't think I can hold her back once she is 70 pounds. She goes wild when around other people, but her ears lay back so I know she is being friendly. We just cant get her to stop jumping on them and submissive peeing. She is well potty trained. That's the one thing that went right. She loves her treats and will do anything for them at home, but at school she has absolutely no interest in them. The trainer says the breeder I got her from should have never sold her to us because she has an A1 personality, extreme high work and prey drive, and was bred as if she was going to work for the police or military (I think she is the East German breed). We spend every waking minute with her. I changed my working shift to midnights while my husband works day turn so there will always be someone here to take care of her. We walk her 2 times a day, about 1mile each time. Its hard in the winter because no-one shovels their side walk and there is road salt everywhere and she wants to eat it. I cant wait until summer. We play ball with her in the house and she does good, but when its time to go to the crate we have to chase her or throw a beggin strip in the crate to get her to go in. Putting a collar on her is ****. She squirms, and bites and there is no control what-so-ever. She is now getting her adult teeth so I'm starting to worry. She gets spayed next week so I hope it helps but my trainer says it wont make any difference. My husband is insisting trying another training school. This one is all "positive" training (using treats, clickers, and no choke collars). I just don't see this dog learning with a clicker. I have a feeling I will have to resort to a prong collar which is what the breeder suggested when I got her. I'm starting to lose my patience, but don't worry, I can never hit her. I love her and I really want to get a handle on her. Any suggestions? She has been so defiant lately.
