I hope everyone had a happy Fourth of July. Ours was lovely. We started with a walk to the park to take Allie on the swings (I'm not sure who has more fun, her or me), then came home for a little cook out. I talked Jesse into making hot dogs for dinner. Such a guilty pleasure food. I don't even remember the last time I ate one, but it was probably made by my grandmother at her beach house (which is to say, several years ago).
I can't believe it's already July. It seems like the summer has barely started, and yet it's going by so fast! I have to say, this is my third summer in Northern California, and I'm still not used to it. We get such amazingly mild weather all year here, and don't get me wrong, I love it in January. But right about now is when I start wishing for some HEAT. Pool weather. Beach weather. The kind of days where the only thing to do is float around on an inflatable raft and drink margaritas. All we get here is 70 and breezy. Perfect for going for a run (ick!) or doing yard work (blech!), but just a shade too cold for bikinis and mojitos.
Still, the Fourth always puts me in a summer mood, and I decided to keep it going today with this sunny little card.
The image is Ruffles Marci from La La Land Crafts. I love my Marcies. They're all so cute and just perfect for Copics. It's been a looooong time since I've been able to just sit and color, so this was a lot of fun for me. Sadly, my R35 ran out while I was working on her hair, and I think it shows.
Otherwise, I'm so happy with it. I finally used my own advice and chose the clothing colors after I picked the paper I used for my card. So often I end up with a great image and realize I have nothing to coordinate it with. This time I made sure everything matched.
If you're curious, here are the colors I used:
Skin: E0000, Eoo, E11 (to make her look nice and tan), BV00 (shadows), R20 (cheeks), R85 (lips)
Hair: E31, 33, 35, 37, 59 (I use 59 because it's darker and less red than 39, so it creates deeper shadows)
Dress: G14, 16, 19; BG01, 05, 07; Y32, 35, 38; RV02, 04, 06
Headband and Shoes: BG0000, 000, 01
I've been meaning to start participating in more link parties and challenges, and figure there's no better time than now to get started. So, I'm linking this post up to:

Pretty, delicious, and healthy, this oven baked cod fish "en papillote" is a feast for the eyes! Yet another example that you can eat like a gourmet on the paleo autoimmune protocol! I am particularly pleased with this new fish recipe; I had a great time preparing the dish and it was so much fun opening the little packages on our plates to discover the final result.
Cooking "en papillote" is a French cooking technique in which the food is wrapped up and sealed in parchment paper, allowing the ingredients to steam in their own flavorful liquids. The final result is a delicate and aromatic dish with incredible savor.
AIP and Paleo
Oven Baked Cod Fish En Papillote
with Spinach & Leeks
How to create a papillote? This video explains quite well the traditional technique to fold your parchment paper. If, like me, you are not very skilled at origami and other paper folding techniques, you might want to adopt a simpler, no-nonsense approach.
Start by placing all your ingredients in the middle of a sheet of parchment paper. Arrange everything in a pretty fashion, season, then gather up all sides of the paper to form a little package that you will close with some kitchen twine. Voilà!
Substitutions? I was lucky to find some wild caught cod fish at Costco. I only eat fish that has been wild caught, not farmed. I have had several bad flare ups in the past when eating farmed fish; it has to do with the nature and quality of the feed they use. Every time, I react badly. But that's my personal experience and you might not react the same way I do. That being said, you can swap the cod for any kind of fish really: salmon, tilapia, trout, red snapper, mahi-mahi, … You can't go wrong and your dish will taste as good!
- 4 fresh cod fish fillets (approx. 200 g or 0.45 lb per person)
- 4 cups baby spinach
- 2 cups finely sliced leeks (white and green parts)
- 4 TBSP finely chopped Italian parsley
- 2 TSP finely chopped garlic
- 4 TSP extra-virgin olive oil
- Fine sea salt, to taste
- Lemon wedges for garnish.
- Warm up the oven to 350 degree F.
- Cut out 4 pieces of parchment paper of approximately 15 x 20 inches.
- In the center of each piece of paper, lay down in this order 1 cup of baby spinach, 1 piece of cod fish, a pinch of salt, 1/2 cup leeks, 1 TBSP parsley, 1/2 TSP garlic, 1 TSP of olive oil, and another pinch of salt.
- Gather up all sides of the parchment paper to form a package with the food inside. Tie a piece of kitchen twine around the neck of the package, as low as you can. Trim the excess of paper to 1 inch over the twine.
- Place in the oven on the middle rack (or lower) making sure the parchment paper doesn't touch the heating element of the oven.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove the papillotes from the oven and place directly on a dinner plate. Open at the table and consume with a drizzle of lemon juice.
- Bon appétit!

Jan 29 and 30th I was at the CalNENA trade show. This regional show is targeted to 911 and emergency call and dispatch centers for police and fire departments. Call recording is mandatory in the U.S. for these government agencies so I focused on explaining the unique benefits that my employer offers. I will be at the APCO trade show in Longbeach CA at the end of this month, which is a similar audience and the ISC West trade show in Las Vegas, NV at the end of March. ISC West is a huge security-centric trade show. If you want a free pass to the exhibit hall, let me know and I can get you in. At our booth we can show you a live, working call recording system as well as the software in action. We've got competitors at these shows as well so you can get a look at several options for call recording.

TORONTO, May 14 /CNW/ - Mandalay Resources Corporation ("Mandalay" or the "Company") (TSX-V: MND) is pleased to announce that it has completed a detailed review of the mineral inventory at its Costerfield, Australia gold-antimony mine. This work, conducted under the supervision of Mandalay's independent consultants, SRK Consulting, is detailed in a new NI 43-101 compliant report on the property. The report contains the first estimate of proven and probable reserves for the mine, which have been developed from previously announced mineral resource estimates. The complete NI 43-101 report is available on the Company's website www.mandalayresources.com and under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com.
MINERAL RESOURCES(1) (as at April 1, 2009, minus estimated resource depletion to February 28, 2010) -------------------------------------------------------------- Resource Type kTonnes Au g/t Sb% Au oz Sb t -------------------------------------------------------------- Measured & Indicated 218.5 11.8 6.4 83,100 14,000 -------------------------------------------------------------- Inferred 126.9 9.2 4.5 37,400 5,700 -------------------------------------------------------------- (1) Resources include Augusta E, W, N, and C lodes. Resources are reported on a diluted, in-situ basis using a 4.6 g/t Au equivalent cutoff grade calculated at US$1,000/oz Au and US$6,000/t Sb and a minimum width of 1.2 metres. Resources are reported inclusive of reserves. The resources of the Brunswick Vein have been established separately by AMC Consultants. MINERAL RESERVES(2) (as at March 1, 2010). -------------------------------------------------------------- Reserve Type kTonnes Au g/t Sb% Au oz Sb t -------------------------------------------------------------- Proven 20.1 16.9 9.7 10,937 1,953 -------------------------------------------------------------- Probable 45.4 11.4 5.8 16,656 2,636 -------------------------------------------------------------- Proven & Probable 65.6 13.1 7.0 27,594 4,588 -------------------------------------------------------------- (2) Reserves include Augusta E and W lodes only and are reported on a mined and diluted basis using 1.5 metres minimum mining width and planned and unplanned dilution of zero grade. Reserves are calculated at US $1,000/oz Au and US$6,000/t Sb.
The SRK Life of Mine Plan, based on mining 100% of the proven and probable reserves, mines and processes ore 65,600 tonnes of ore containing 27,594 oz Au and 4,588 t Sb. It extends through November 2011 at an average mining and processing rate of 4,000 tonnes ore per month. Metal recoveries in the plan are based on a constant flotation tail of 0.7 g/t Au and 0.3 % Sb. Saleable total production is 20,722 oz Au and 2,431 t Sb. Total operating cost, including mining, processing, selling, and administration, is A$385 per tonne ore processed. Going forward capital costs for this base case plan include A$1.1 million for capital development and A$0.8 million for capital purchases. Due to tax loss carryforwards of approximately A$40 million, there are no income taxes due on income from this base-case plan.
The SRK Life of Mine Plan produces a cumulative cash surplus of A$8.5 million at a gold price of US$1,000/oz and antimony price of US$6,000/t. For comparison, as reported by www.metalbulletin.com, the April 2010 monthly average London PM gold price was US$1,149/oz and the monthly average free market warehouse antimony price was US$8,369/t.
Brad Mills, CEO of Mandalay, said "Costerfield is one of the few mines in the world that produces high-grade gold-antimony concentrate for the Chinese market. Given the strong improvements in the fundamentals for antimony with the closure of unregulated production in China we are very encouraged about the future of this market. With this maiden reserve estimate for Costerfield, based on a rigorous examination of technical, capital, and operating costs for the life of mine to the standards required by the new Mandalay management and by National Instrument 43-101, we are confident about our ability to deliver consistent quantities to our customers. Even though the base case mine life, founded only on proven and probable reserves, runs just through Q4 2011, the extraordinarily high grade of gold and antimony in the ore, coupled with high metal prices, means that we anticipate the mine will generate more than enough cash to fund our continued investment in production improvements and exploration. The base case plan includes deepening the Augusta decline to develop new levels on the Augusta W and E lodes, which we expect to more than replace reserves depletion over the coming months. As well, we are embarking on an A$1.1 million Augusta Deeps drilling program designed to bring a targeted 120,000 to 230,000 tonnes of W-lode material at typical W-lode grades of 12-15 g/t gold and 7-8% antimony into the inferred resource category. Finally, we have narrow-width, mechanized production drilling equipment on order that should allow us to significantly increase our mining rate and productivity beginning in late Q3, 2010. When that equipment is fully commissioned, we expect to be able to increase monthly average payable production to approximately 1,500 oz Au and 160 t Sb."
In connection with the Augusta Deeps drilling program described above, it should be noted that the potential quantity and quality of material identified as the exploration target is conceptual in nature and that there has not yet been sufficient exploration to define this material as a mineral resource. It remains uncertain if the planned drilling or other future exploration will result in this material being delineated as a mineral resource.
Qualified Person: -----------------
Chris Raleigh, Principal Consultant (Mining) with SRK and a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical and scientific information pertaining to the base case Costerfield mine plan contained in this release.
For details of the resource and reserves calculation and the base case Life of Mine Plan based on proven and probable reserves, please refer to the NI 43-101 report.
About Mandalay Resources Corporation: -------------------------------------

As you know, most of my work is high contrast, often with very dark or black negative space. I think that will still be the main thrust of my work but recently I have been making a few images in a lighter and slightly less sharp or defined nature.
Just as I often zero in on one aspect of a building, this is a small part of a 4m high outdoor sculpture.

Love this image.
John, as always, absolute simplicity but this time we have such a gentle, elegant curve so well supported by gentle tones, leaving us with a sense of peacefulness. I feel so content looking a this image. It's beautiful, thank you.

In my experience, film lovers can be divided into two categories. Both groups adore the movie going experience itself, not to mention the always fun, and sometimes heated, discussion that often comes afterwards. The second group, however, takes things one step further. To put it simply, as a card-carrying member of this particular tribe, one of the first questions I ask after watching a film is usually "how did they do that?" Rewind to eight year old me after having watched Star Wars for the first time, and you can see how that question eventually led me to attend film school and then pursue a career in film and television in Los Angeles.
Bottom line: whatever else movies are (and they can be many things), they are magic. But who can resist the urge to peak behind the curtain to see how it's really done? Is "lights, camera, action" something a director actually says? What are our favorite leading men and women like in real life? How many people does it really take to make a movie? And who steers the studio ship when scandal rears its ugly (and inevitable) head?
Ethan and Joel Coen certainly aren't the first filmmakers to answer some of those questions by shining a light on their own industry (heck, they've already done it once in their 1991 film, Barton Fink), but you have to give them credit for crafting Hail, Caesar! – one of the wackiest versions of Golden Age Hollywood in recent memory. It's actually one of the brightest and most optimistic films the brothers have ever made, closer to an O, Brother Where Art Thou than to No Country for Old Men, but it doesn't shy away from commenting on the absurdity that is cinema either.
But whoever said absurd was bad? Or silly? Or funny? Again, movies are many things, but one thing is certain: there is absolutely no denying the film industry is unlike any other business in the world. It's extreme, bizarre, entertaining, underhanded, glamorous, and elaborate. It's both backward and forward thinking, and ultimately far more complicated than many people realize. So it should come as no surprise that audiences around the world want a glimpse of what exists beyond the frame.
So what have we learned from movies about movies?
Poor Barton Fink (Barton Fink). And Dalton Trumbo (Trumbo). And Charlie Kaufman (as portrayed by Nicholas Cage in Adaptation, of course). Screenwriters can be the unsung heroes of filmmaking (directors get all the credit, don't they?) because they often slave away in hotel rooms (or bath tubs), are better with the written word than with speaking it out loud, and are in a constant battle with that dreaded disease: writer's block. But writers are also the originators. It is from their minds that films are born (yes, even adaptations) and you can't say they aren't some of the more interesting characters to watch on screen. On the flip side, writers seem the most likely to disappear into the darkness of their own minds when plagued with the sometimes harsh reality of the business….or so The Coen Brothers would have you believe, thanks to the aforementioned Barton Fink. Food for thought if you are pursuing a career in screenwriting.
Lesson #2: Actors playing actors have fun, but actresses playing actresses tend to upstage everyone.
George Clooney looks like he's having a goofy good time playing kidnapped leading man, Baird Whitlock, in Hail, Caesar!, but when I think of actors playing actors, I can't help but think of the ladies: Norma Desmond in Sunset Boulevard, Eve Harrington in All About Eve, Vicki Lester in A Star is Born, Elisabet Vogler in Persona and Betty Elms in Mulholland Drive (just to name a few). Acting is a fascinating profession since it requires people to constantly pretend they're someone else. That alone is grounds for interesting psychological exploration, but that coupled with the intense scrutiny placed on actresses in particular (by both the public and the studios themselves), makes their stories utterly compelling. It's worth mentioning actresses who have played real life actresses as well, like Cate Blanchett's turn as Katherine Hepburn in The Aviator, Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe in My Week With Marilyn, and, though it was for a TV movie, Judy Davis as Judy Garland in Life With Judy Garland: Me and My Shadow.
Not that the guys miss out on all the meaty roles, last year's Michael Keaton as Riggan Thompson in Birdman is one of the most fascinating modern portrayals of a movie star.
Lesson #3: There are Suits behind those cameras
Executive producer Griffin Mill in The Player, studio executive Les Grossman in Tropic Thunder, Walt Disney in Saving Mr. Banks, and studio manager Eddie Mannix in Hail, Caesar! want you to know that movies wouldn't get made without the suits in charge. Who else would do all the corralling, cajoling, yelling, bribing, and murdering necessary to get the job done on time?
Lesson #4: The Golden Age of Cinema was golden for a reason
Why else would so many movies about movies be set in that era? Besides Hail, Caesar!, last years Trumbo, Tim Burton's Ed Wood, and parts of Martin Scorsese's The Aviator all took place between the 1930s and 50s. Even the classic Singin' In the Rain is set at the beginning of the era, just as talking pictures took over from silent film. Cinema history is a fascinating subject, in and of itself, but modern audiences get the added bonus of absorbing the film styles of the time in these movies. I just love the elaborate studio sets, glamorous costumes, witty banter, and vibrant colors of those classic films, don't you? It's the reason I ended up enjoying Hail, Caesar! despite a somewhat weak central plotline. The set pieces showcasing various genres of movies being filmed during that time made me smile ear to ear. Channing Tatum singing and dancing as an homage to Gene Kelly? Yes please.
Lesson #5: Of course everyone wants to be the director!
For better or worse, it's usually one man or one woman who stands behind the camera and conducts the entire affair of making a movie. Directors can be quirky, messy and egotistical, yet also creative, intelligent and full of ambition and vision. Though it's hard to see Steven Spielberg as, say, a Bobby Bowfinger or Christopher Nolan as a Laurence Laurentz, there is no denying that fictional directors in movies about Hollywood are based on at least some truths. Directors are auteurs and auteurs are nothing if not at least partially eccentric. Even movies that tell stories about actual directors, like Ed Wood (starring Johnny Depp), Gods and Monsters (about director James Whale, starring Ian McKellan), My Week With Marilyn (with a supporting turn by Kenneth Branagh as actor/director Sir Laurence Olivier) and Hitchcock (starring Anthony Hopkins as the master of suspense), prove that eccentricity is a necessary component in directing a film. Watching these visionaries conduct their symphonies of cameras, lights, props and actors is just one of the many reasons why movies about movies are as cinematic as they are entertaining.
So maybe movie magic is still be a bit of a mystery (unless you devour all of the behind-the-scenes featurettes on The Lord of the Rings blu-rays…you know I did), but Hollywood loves to turn the cameras on itself in ways that can range from moving to hysterical, skewering to thoughtful. Hail, Caesar! is just the latest in a long line of movies that remind us that, while moving pictures can certainly be silly and frivolous, they are also worth celebrating.

Families on the road! Meet seven inspirational families that travel full-time and do it against all odds.Fearless would be the right word to describe these amazing families as they travel nomadically on a shoestring budget, moving from place to place with their kids, facing all their adventures and misadventures with courage.I'm certain there are couples who dream about travelling the world once their kids move out but there are also some couples who'd like to make their children a part of their travelling experience. If you belong to the latter group, then this list is for you:-
1. The Nomadic Family: Kobi, Gabi and their 3 children travel the world looking for inspiration and self-discovery. They say exploring the world was the best decision they've ever made and their experience as a full-time travelling family has been a mix of feelings ranging from messy and noisy to divine and peaceful. They maintain their itinerary by settling down momentarily for 1-3 months in the countries they visit and then move on.
2. The Dennings from Discover, Share, Inspire: The Dennings are a large family who travel the world with 5 children, the youngest being a mere 3 years old. They live a homeless, nomadic life out of a biofuel powered truck and are currently travelling from Alaska to Argentina with 5 children for company.
3. The Miller Family of the Edventure Project: The Millers are an eclectic bunch, they've travelled through 15 countries in six months and still believe that there's a lot left to see. They travel with 4 children aged 9 to 15 who are growing up exploring the world. The family is currently planning a trip to South-East Asia where they plan to live for about a year.
4. Wagoner's Abroad: They are an American family of 4 that currently lives in Spain. They've collectively travelled more than 35 countries in the last 20 years and are planning to visit Europe once their kids are out of school.
5. World Travel Family: A family of four that has been travelling since June 2013 and plan to stay on the road for another 12 months. The family is head by Alyson who is a medical scientist and James who is a chef. They have 2 kids D and Boo, both boys, who are currently being home schooled.
6. Bohemian Travelers: Mom, Dad and 3 intelligent boys who call themselves the Bohemian Family of adventurers. They've travelled through Central America and South East Asia and are currently in Phuket, Thailand. They don't believe in having strict rules and make their path on the move, changing it when something interesting is encountered.
7. Travel with Bender: Josh and Erin from Travel with Bender left Australia in 2012 and have been travelling ever since. They've been to south-east Asia and then taken giant leap to the other side by visiting the US and Mexico. They travel with Mia and Caius who are aged 4 and 2 years respectively.
All of the travelling families in this list have shown determination and initiative by walking a path less traveled and their main aim has been to inspire other people to take an interest in travelling and experiencing the different cultures of the world. So next time you think of excuses for not being able to travel, think of these amazing families who inspite of having kids, inspite if not being rich have been able to fulfill their dreams of seeing the world.

Boasting the longest coastline in France, Brittany is a delight of beaches, special islands, historic towns and wildly beautiful landscapes. By Sue Dobson
Beaches of fine sand backed by dunes and interspersed by creeks and curving bays, craggy islands and dramatic gorse-carpeted cliffs, home to nesting seabirds, define Brittany's 2730km of coastline, the longest in France. Pink rocks, carved by the elements into bizarre shapes, rise from an azure sea.
A region rooted in myth and legend it offers walled cities, half-timbered houses, quaint fishing villages, busy ports, pretty estuary towns, castles and châteaux, defensive forts, even menhirs and megaliths from Neolithic times. Fertile farmland offers up the fruits and vegetables for which Brittany is famous, from pink onions to the apples that make delicious cider and apple brandy. Order a fresh seafood platter for a sumptuous display of the fruits of the sea.
Along the Côte d'Emeraude (Emerald Coast), scene of gorgeous family beaches and campsites galore, are the historic port of St-Malo and its refined sister Dinard.
St-Malo has seen saints and sinners, explorers, adventurers and pirates, merchants and slave-traders, periods of peace and periods of war – the Second World War reduced it to ruins but the town has been admirably restored. Walk the ramparts with their gates, bastions and watchtowers for an overview of the old town's maze of streets and landmark cathedral. Enjoy the café culture and shops around Place Chateaubriand.
Across the Rance river estuary, sedate Dinard presents an altogether different face. Popular with royalty in the early 20th century, it attracted the rich and famous who built grand seaside villas. It also caught the attention of artists, including Picasso. There are wonderful walks along the coast from here and a collection of small resorts, including St-Lunaire, where Debussy is said to have been inspired to compose La Mer and St-Briac, immortalised by Renoir.
The Côte de Granit Rose (Pink Granite Coast) feels like a world apart. The crazy shapes of the rocks, the houses built among vast boulders, the spectacular beaches and the changing colours, from soft shades to fiery pinks in the setting sun, all mesmerize the eyes and senses.
The pink disappears and the coastline gets wilder as you reach into Finistère, the most traditional part of Brittany. Here are hilltop churches and châteaux hidden in woodland, island-strewn bays and countless beaches.
Roscoff may now be best known as a cross-Channel port, but its days as the haunt of pirates and smugglers are made much of in the town. Take a look at the grand granite houses dating back to the prosperous 16th and 17th centuries and don't miss the quirky Musée des Johnnies, which tells the story of the bike-riding Breton onion sellers.

- Designer Designer Rugs
Continuing its tradition of collaborating with local designers, Designer Rugs has partnered for a second time with Australian design partners Pamela Easton and Lydia Pearson, of fashion label Easton Pearson, for their new rug collection, Coromandel – launched last week in Sydney.
Drawing on their travels and referencing the exotic hybrid style of Indo-European chintz design, the designers say of the Coromandel collection: "Our designs take chintz back to its original purpose as sophisticated floor coverings, but the macro focus on tiny fragments gives traditional design a new modern viewpoint".
With an exuberant and unafraid colour palette, the Coromandel collection is hand-made from 100% New Zealand wool, with some designs additionally utilising silk. The rugs can be custom coloured and sized to suit any space, and are available exclusively from Designer Rugs.

Great Scott! Is it 2015 already? Well, let's take a quick look-see at how accurate Back to the Future II was.
• Still need roads.
• Nikes don't tie themselves.
• Hoverboard not available commercially.
• Still awaiting 12 separate Jaws sequels.
And as for the Toyota pickup truck, hoo-boy, is that ever a prediction gone wrong. It doesn't fly, it doesn't run on garbage, there's no Mr. Fusion in the bed – all things considered, this is a pretty ordinary rig.
The reason I bring up BTTF2 in relation to the Tacoma is pretty simple: the original film is best known for its DeLorean hero car, but when Marty McFly successfully navigated the trials and tribulations of time travel, his reward wasn't a stainless-steel super(ish) car, it was a truck. Specifically, he got the girl, and he got a shiny new 1985 model year black Toyota pickup complete with a lift kit, big tires, and offroad lighting.
Those were salad days for the sport truck indeed, when a compact little rig was your ticket to sun, fun, and driving your best girl up to the lake. Thanks for waxing her up, Biff. Er, the truck, I'm talking about the truck!
Come 2015 and the compact truck market has shrunk even as trucks have grown larger. The plucky little Ranger and Mazda B-series are toast, and full-size pickups have improved in both fuel economy and overall affordability. What's more, Toyota's pickup offering now also has to contend with two new machines from General Motors: the Canyon and Colorado twins. That's not to mention Nissan's Frontier, a near-constant rival. [Don't forget about the awkward and expensive Ridgeline! –Ed.]
This one's the TRD Sport version of Toyota's Double-cab Tacoma, and to draft in another '80s movie reference, it's as venerable as Mr. Miyagi. This generation of truck first debuted in 2004 as a 2005 model, and if we hopped in our DeLorean for a decade's jump, we'd find almost the exact same truck sitting in showrooms with Hoobastank playing over the PA.
Still, the Tacoma's minor 2009 facelift still looks good in 2015, if not particularly fresh. The 2016 version will be updated, so watch for that.
In my neighbourhood of North Vancouver, the Tacoma is something of a ubiquity. You see them everywhere you go, from shopping mall to the peak of Mount Seymour. Heck, my neighbour even bought one. He had mentioned considering buying an old Land Rover Discovery, and after I stopped screaming, I suggested checking out some other options.
It's a popular choice, a Camry-with-a-tailgate, but the Tacoma's appeal is not immediately apparent when you first jump in the cabin. Sure, trucks are meant to get dirty, and the Tacoma's rough-and-tumble cabin looks like it'd bear up under heavy use, but this is very much a time warp compared to almost any modern car short of a Mitsubishi Mirage.
The seats are flattish and lack adjustability. The rear cab space isn't huge, although it's workable if you're briefly ferrying a load of mountain bikers up the hill. There's no rear defroster (the mirrors don't defrost either), and no automatic headlights.

2008 Dodge Charger Sedan - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value

Rocket Ride
By JustOrange on
Vehicle2008 Dodge Charger RT 4dr Sedan (5.7L 8cyl 5A)
ReviewI just traded in a 04 Mazda 6 for this brand new, 2008 Daytona R/T. I drive Crown Vic's for a living and find a 4 cylinder gas friendly but boring! I have admired the new Charger since they were first debuted, but since it was an American car, I was weary. The Charger is the embodiement of everything I think "cool" cars should be - and everything that American cars should live up to. It is my absolute favorite car ever designed. I never got to buy "the" car up until now, I have always gotten the one that sufficed. This is just plain fun to drive. Gas milage is not the selling point to these, but I will gladly sacrifice in that dpt! I look forward to driving my car!
Best FeaturesI love everything in this car. The sound of it, the engine, the interior and exterior design. It is a muscle car in a family sedan cloak. The sound system is top notch. In dash nav system is great. I love everything about this car.
Worst FeaturesNone. If it didn't fit the bill, I would've never purchased it. I would like to see the vehicle 100% made in America but that's just not the way the world operates anymore.

A few years ago, there was talk about a Good Times movie, and now we are finally hearing the details of it come together. The update is that Kenya Barris, the Black-ish creator, is writing the script for the movie based off the 70's hit sitcom.
If you're not sure what the sitcom was about, it followed a black family living in a Chicago housing project in the 1960s. There aren't much other details about the upcoming movie out yet, other than that Scott Rudin and Eli Bush are producing. Let's hope now that a writer is on board it's full speed ahead for the rest of the movie!

In memory of Jean Claude Raybaud (29.02.1956 - 16.03.2009)
Sad news has come. After a long and serious illness Jean Claude Raybaud, our friend,associate and partner in France passed away. He was a pioneer in creating various types of furnaces of factory made components that could be assembled, disassembled and assembled again without using any bonding material. He was the first to introduce our system of "Free gas movement" in wood-burning stoves and boilers in EU. He was the one who did a lot of research and experimental work regarding using of our system in furnaces. He made a great contribution in solving the problem of combined heating of houses in France using solar energy and energy of wood-fired boilers. The efficiency of his wood-fired boiler is 91%, which is very high.
Jean Claude was an easy-going person interested in the final result. He quickly rebuilt the furnace to perform some experiments in accordance with my proposals. Our joint cooperation allowed me to understand more deeply the processes taking place during fuel combustion in our system and contributed to its development.
I am very grateful to Jeane Claude Raybaud and his lucky star that gave me an opportunity to work with him and to take part in some experiments and tests. <u>A trip to Europe with PS
He was a worthy man of a great country. We will always remember him in our hearts.
I. Kuznetsov
Here he is with us:

It is Appraisal month at Groupon. We had conducted the entire event last year in paper format and wanted to transfer all of it online.
In the hunt for a Performance Management Solution, we came across EmployWise – whom we have finally started working with. This is not an endorsement post, since we are yet to see its impact.
However, if their CEO's words are anything to go by, it just might end up being a good move for us.
Sumeet Kapur, in our first meeting, made a point that I loved – it's perhaps the single most obvious realization that I have had in the recent past.
"Never make the mistake of promoting someone based on their performance"
That makes SO much sense. It is not just a stark realization of the mistakes I have made in the past, but also such an obvious omission that happens every day, in every organization.
It is moments such as these, when I am reminded of what a close friend says all the time – "how can you not benefit from meeting people?"
The appraisals this year will be a very different exercise!

Gardeners need to bee nice, says Springwatch star Michaela Strachan
TV presenter Michaela Strachan is urging the public to create bee-friendly gardens and habitats this spring to help the important pollinating insects.
The Springwatch presenter has teamed up with environmental group Friends of the Earth to encourage people to take "easy" steps to help bees.
Strachan said: "Bees are such an important species to our ecosystems, but they desperately need our help.
"There are two very easy ways that you can do your bit.
"You can help to create bee-friendly habitats and you can get involved in bee counts. Bees are great for gardens, so choose bee-friendly plants and see how many bees you can attract."

Growing up and getting trapped in adult life is something that most people eventually face, but while reading The Fairytale Chicago of Francesca Finnegan, a charming and magical book by Steve Wiley, it is almost possible to forget about the inexorable progress of time. With a main character who is teetering on the edge of forgetting about magic forever, this novel is a touching and thought-provoking ride through nostalgia, memory and the promises of youth. Wiley's sharp, tongue-in-cheek style of writing makes the pages fly and the Chicago skyline makes a stunning backdrop for this mystical romp.
Richard is the lackluster protagonist who has found himself a slave to work and the monotony of life, but the bizarre life and times of Francesca Finnegan often steals the spotlight, peppered into the story with personal moments and reflections on the past. Readers are taken on a journey through a new perspective of Chicago's history, and are welcomed into the secret Lavender Line of the Chicago 'L.' From minotaurs and sinister wind to cat conductors and drunken elves, this story is a wacky roller-coaster, like the imagination of a child gone awry, but overflowing with clever, chuckle-inducing passages and quips.
At times, the story does veer wildly, and it is easy to suspect that the author has truly gone off the rails, but each time, the narrative manages to pull itself back on track, leaving readers shaking their heads and diving into just one more chapter. If you are looking for a bit of ridiculous fun that still manages to pose a few important questions about growing old without growing up, this story is ideal. Francesca Finnegan and Rich make a strange, but endearing team of adventurers, and the childlike nature of the story has hints of maturity artfully tucked between the sillier moments.
This book is clearly written by someone who knows the heart and soul of Chicago, from the decadent leather of the Green Mill to the dangerous nature of Malort. This book smacks of intimate experience, and a love for a city so great that it has to play a part in the story, as though the streets are characters of their own. The writing also has a brilliant, casual flow to it, similar to the writing of Tom Robbins – never taking itself too seriously, but nailing a point home with perfect prose when the time comes. This is the sign of a writer comfortable in his own style, with an excellent view of the story's end before deciding what the middle might contain. There is an adventurous and unpredictable tone to every chapter of this book, making it very difficult to put down.
As someone who has spent a great deal of time in Chicago, this reviewer is enthralled by the details and careful consideration of certain passages, but The Fairytale Chicago of Francesca Finnegan does far more than appeal to Windy City citizens. Whimsical stories are excellent avenues for escape, and in that way, Steve Wiley's book is self-aware, directly addressing the importance of dreams, imagination, and belief in magical worlds that we can't quite reach – until we need them most.

DEXA Bone Density Scan
Until recently, osteoporosis (bone loss) was often undiagnosed, progressing silently over the years, until a fracture occurred. With the development of DEXA bone density scan, early diagnosis is possible and fractures can be prevented. In this safe painless scan, minimal radiation is used to determine the bone density of the spine, hip, or wrist.

Bradford Hansen-Smith: What is a Circle? How would you define a Circle?
This is an introduction to the fascinating work of Bradford Hansen-Smith – an author, consultant, geometer and sculptor – who notes the following on his blog, Wholemovement ?:
I am intrigued that we have used the circle as a static symbol for both everything and nothing. Today we agree on mostly nothing, zero, yet desiring everything. We really don't understand either. Together they suggest total integration in evolutionary understanding and in revelation through movement. A circle is a complete, inclusive, and self-referenced concentricity indicating there is no inner or outer boundary, only the perception of an infinite change in scale. The origin for the circle is the sphere, the only dimensional form that can be called Whole, demonstrating unity, and that looks the same whether moving or not. Going to origin reveals more about the nature of something and purpose, than only looking at the function or the thing itself. Only in origin will we find the necessity and understanding for change.
Compressing the sphere changes its form in a single direction of symmetry perpendicular to the expanding circle plane; similar to how galaxies are formed. Three circles are revealed in transforming spherical unity to a triunity. There is no separation only differentiation of surface and redistribution of volume. Nothing is added or taken away, the circle/sphere is Whole. Between the two circle planes is a circle ring, the dynamic agent of differentiation. Triunity of the circle is structural pattern revealed through precessional movement and is principle for all subsequent realization of potential formation; thus is the prologue for another creation story:
Wholeness through movement causes division becoming duality intriangulation with each part consistent to the movement and totallyinner-dependent to the Whole. The individual nature of part to Whole regulates the interactions between all formed and unformed parts on all scale, in all time, with purpose.
Excellent work. Here is a video introduction to his DVD,

Nearly a dozen House agricultural committee members are in races that are currently close and the Senate has some tough battles too. And as the farm bill got punted due to the election year, it is definitely coming up in this election cycle on both sides of the aisle.
Debates quickly turn to incumbent members for not doing enough to get the farm bill passed, whether they signed the discharge petition, being too closely tied to House Speaker John Boehner who hasn't allowed for the bill to come up for a vote, or extreme fiscal conservatives who see the farm bill as excessive and unneeded.
On the House side, two incumbents and members of the ag committee Rep. Leonard Boswell, D-Iowa, and Rep. Tom Latham, R-Iowa, are pitted against each other in Iowa's third district. The state's fourth district has Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, against the wife of Secretary of Agriculture Christie Vilsack.
According to Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball (Univ. of Va.), Rep. Chris Gibson, R-N.Y., is currently in a contest with Julian Schreibman that is seen as a tossup. Rep. Reid Ribble, R-Wis., is in a race that is leaning GOP. Both incumbent Ag Committee members Rep. Bob Gibbs, R-Ohio, and Rep. Kristi Noem, R-S.D., are in contests that are described as likely GOP.
It appears as of now Rep. Jim Costa, D-Calif., has moved from likely Democrat to safe Democrat in Sabato's ratings.
The National Cattlemen's Beef Association reported there are several close Senate races this year in cattle country.
One closely watched race is the Wisconsin U.S. Senate race between former Wisconsin governor Tommy Thompson and his Democratic opponent Tammy Baldwin. The Wisconsin seat is one of several in the Midwest that the Republican Party is counting on to help win control of the Senate, NCBA said. Wisconsin has been a consistently Democratic state, but in 2010 Republicans gained the governorship, a U.S. Senate seat and two Democratic House seats.
In Montana, Rep. Denny Rehberg is running for the Senate against Democratic Sen. Jon Tester. Both candidates have experience in D.C., and according to a poll by Mason-Dixon and published in the Missoulian, Rehberg is favored by 48% of those polled, with Tester coming in at 45%. The two candidates also come in as having unanimous partisan support, with 91% of Republicans supporting Rehberg and 92% of Democrats supporting Tester.
Nevada is also an important state during this election. Sen. Dean Heller is running for re-election against Rep. Shelley Berkley, D-Nev. Nevada is a key state in the national race for control of the Democratic-led Senate, in which Republicans need to gain four seats to win control.
In Virginia, the state's former Republican governor George Allen is fighting for a Senate seat against another former Virginia governor, Democrat Tim Kaine. Polls show the race is currently tied, NCBA reported.
Much is riding on who wins the Senate and the House as well as the White House. Depending on election results, we will know more about when and what kind of farm bill we could get.
Keith Good of farmpolicy.com has done an excellent Snapshot of Close Election Races that he has been updating as new information becomes available.

A2B Galvani Electric Bike
Named after Luigi Aloisio Galvani, inventor of galvanic battery cells with extended, impressive performance.
The Galvani's urban retro-style frame and larger wheels move over obstacles more easily, making it suitable for rough terrains and non sealed roads. Powered by pedal assist, this sporty, touring bike-style model is designed to look great and perform brilliantly in both urban and country environments.
The electric bike's answer to a touring bike, the Galvani opens up an almost inconceivably wide range of journey choices. Designed to perform on nearly every type of terrain, the Galvani is just as happy (and looks just as good) gliding down a smart city street as it does burning up gravel roads.
The Galvani's retro Dutch design encourages a more impressive rider performance, and therefore offers a greater range. The perfect partner as you explore even longer and more exciting new journeys, the Galvani has a maximum speed of 25km/h (15.5mph) and a range of up to 90km (56 miles)*.
* Dependant on power setting, rider and riding conditions.

Galvani FAQs
How fast and how far can the Galvani/Male?
The Galvani/Male can reach speeds of up to 25 km/h (15.5mph), however you can pedal faster. The Galvani/Male will assist you up to 90km (56 miles) (the distance varies depending on the weight of the rider and riding conditions).
How do I set my own pace?
You can choose the level of pedal assistance provided using the control option on the display; you can change the level of assistance provided by the motor enabling you to set your own pace and define your riding experience. There are three assistance levels: 'economy' for maximum range, 'standard' for an optimal blend of range and performance, and 'high' for sporty, dynamic performance.
How does it handle hills?
The Galvani delivers up to 35 Nm of torque to propel you from a standing start with ease and will help you navigate the hills between you and your destination. The design of the Galvani propulsion system enables you to operate the bike at peak output when the terrain requires it. These design features are what gives the Galvani long range and touring performance and set it apart from other pedal assist electric bikes on the market.
How do I charge the Galvani/Male?
The Galvani uses lithium ion batteries from the highest quality manufacturers. Recharging is as easy as charging a mobile phone or laptop. Simply plug the charger into any standard outlet and connect it to your charge port on the vehicle or your portable rear rack battery. After two hours your battery will be charged up to 80% of its capacity. To complete a full charge will take between four to six hours depending on how discharged the battery is at the beginning of the charging process. For the best performance we recommend to charge your Galvani battery at least every two months and if you are using it frequently keep the battery topped up as often as possible.
How do I know if I'm running low on power?
There is an indicator on the display of the Galvani/ Male which indicates how much energy is left in your battery. We call this the 'state-of-charge' of the battery. The indicator works like a fuel gauge on your car and will let you know when you are running low and should re-charge.
What does my warranty cover?
The Galvani/Male comes with a five year frame warranty, a two year warranty covering electronics and motor and battery.
Can I buy accessories for the Galvani/Male?

I have a document with numerous paragraph styles, one of which contains two links within one paragraph style. When I go to tag it this error message comes up: "Cannot tag the selected text because the text contains part of a hyperlink or cross-reference. Change the text selection to include the entire hyperlink or cross-reference."
(But I thought I am including all of the hyperlinks...)
Consequently the structure of the document shows only one article with numerous stories and figures (no 1, H2, etc). When I try to export that file to an accessible pdf it will not allow me to re-arrange the structure properly. It gets all goofy, and text disappears from the text boxes.
Any ideas? Thank you

Why does pituitary adenoma cause headaches?
Pituitary adenoma is a benign tumor of an endocrine gland that is situated underneath the brain. Pituitary gland is connected to the brain and it produces several hormones. The most common type of pituitary tumor is one that secretes prolactin, hormone responsible for breast milk production. Women with this tumor usually have irregular periods and breast discharge. Pituitary adenoma usually does not cause headaches, unless it becomes large and compresses the brain. Most of the tumors are small and are called microadenomas and only rarely become large macroadenomas. A group of German researchers just published a study in Cephalalgia that looked at possible causes of headaches induced by pituitary adenoma. Fifty-eight patients with pituitary adenoma were analyzed. Twenty-four patients (41%) had tumor-attributed headache with seven having migraine-like headaches, 11 tension-type headaches, and three having both. Cluster headache-like headache was found once, and two headaches remained unclassified. Tumor-attributed headache was associated with a positive prior history of headaches, nicotine abuse, and a faster tumor growth. Whenever a woman with headaches has irregular periods or a milky discharge from her breast an MRI scan of her brain and a blood test for prolactin level must be obtained. If the tumor is allowed to grow large it can cause impairment and even loss of vision because of the compression of optic nerves. The treatment is usually with medication that shrinks the tumor and only rarely surgery is needed. This surgery can often be performed transnasally – through the nose with faster recovery than when it has to be done by opening the skull.

MarkUs (pronounced "mark us") is an open-source tool which recreates the ease and flexibility of grading assignments with pen on paper, within a web application. It also allows students and instructors to form groups, and collaborate on assignments. It's predecessor OLM (Online Marking) was originally written in Python on top of the TurboGears framework.
This project is a re-implementation of the Online Marking system using Ruby on Rails. The goal of this project is to take what we learned from OLM and our forays into Web-CAT, and build a web-based marking system that includes an early submission and testing system in support of test driven development. The new version of OLM aims to provide a plugin-based system, so that we can continue to add, customize, or remove features as needed.
One Response to 'About'
[…] MarkUs (demo'd by Mike Conley) MarkUs is a Web application that recreates the ease and flexibility of grading assignments with pen on paper. Graders fill in a marking scheme and directly annotate student's work. MarkUs also provides support for other aspects of assignment delivery and management. For example, it allows students or instructors to form groups for assignment collaboration, and allows students to upload their work for grading. Instructors can also create and manage group or solo assignments, and assign graders to mark and annotate the students' work quickly and easily. […]

Atlantic hostel.
Whilst travelling, finding hostels you love is part of the adventure, but I can safely say this is the coolest place I've stayed in Essaouira. It's super cheap, close to everything and has a jaw-dropping roof terrace. There's a tiny bar, music, cushions, blankets and panoramic views of Essaouira all around. They haven't paid me to say this, but it's excellent.
The fish market is overrated.
There's a huge selection of fish caught locally and cooked up right in front of you for low prices. It sounds heavenly and I was annoyed I missed it on my first visit, however on return I checked it out thoroughly yet didn't eat there. The fish sat out in the sun covered in flies, then they were cut open and gutted on the floor with stray cats pawing at them. As appealing as the wide range of exotic sea life was, the preparation conditions were just a little too poor for my taste. The fish market overall is also a LOT smaller than other travellers had led me to believe. Still check it out for yourself, but keep your expectations low.
The beach isn't for chilling.
The sand is grotty, the winds are insane and the water is brown. It's a worthy walk as it's massive and the sheer speed of the wind makes it an adventure, but this isn't a beach you take a towel and relax at. If you're in Essaouira looking for watersports however, the beach is absolutely ideal due to the wind and lack of tourists getting in the way.
Eat at small restaurants.
There are a lot of places to enjoy tagine and couscous in Morocco, but if you find a smaller restaurant in Essaouira you will be truly satisfied. Huge portions at low prices with traditional Moroccan surroundings, including sitting on floor cushions alongside strangers. It's a really pleasant dining experience; one of my favourite whilst travelling.
Bring a hoodie.
It's still Morocco so it's still hot, nut I cannot describe how powerful those winds are! If you don't bring your own, you're likely to drop £12 on an Essaouira hoodie. This was possibly one of my greatest ever purchases as even back home it gets used excessively.
There's not much here.
Once you've seen the above, you've pretty much exhausted Essaouira. It's still nice to stay and chill but you're gonna need to bring a book or some kind of entertainment if you intend to stay longer than a few days.
I don't think Essaouira still has the charm it once had when rock stars would come here to get away from everything, but it's just a bus journey from Marrakech and definitely worth a few days out of the city madness to come and visit. Also despite what everyone in Marrakech will try and tell you; Supra Tours is the way to get here. I've tried multiple services and they all go the exact same way, but that air conditioning is worth an extra 50p for the 3-hour journey.

The distinction between equity and nonequity partnership usually occurs in law firms and accountancy partnerships. Nonequity partners are recognized as owners of the partnership, but more than half of their earnings come from a fixed salary rather than a portion of the partnership's earnings. In some firms, nonequity partners do not receive any portion of the partnership's earnings. Equity partners are full partners who receive a significant draw of the partnership earnings that amounts to more than half of their salary. Equity partners are also liable for the partnership's debts.
Equity Partner Advantages
Equity partners have many advantages when it comes to the daily operation of the partnership. They enjoy full voting rights on important decisions about the future of the firm. Equity partners are also entitled to take home a portion of the partnership's earnings, and they enjoy the prestige and status of being labeled as a full partner in the business. This prestige has particular significance in law firms.
Equity Partner Disadvantages
Some disadvantages come with the invitation to become an equity partner. First, equity partners must buy into the partnership, meaning they make a capital contribution to the business before they are recognized as a partner. Because equity partners are no longer salaried employees of the firm, they have to pay self-employment taxes. Perhaps the biggest disadvantage of being an equity partner is being liable for the debts of the partnership. If the partnership is unable to pay its debts, the individual partners are liable for the shortfall.
Nonequity Partner Advantages
Nonequity partners get the advantage of being a partner in name but without some of the responsibility. Outsiders may not be aware that a partner is anything less than a full partner, so nonequity partners enjoy the same prestige as an equity partner without being liable for the debts of the partnership. Further, nonequity partners do not have to make a capital contribution to the partnership, which can be a significant expense.
Nonequity Partner Disadvantages
The primary disadvantage of being a nonequity partner is that the individual may be regarded as a second-class partner within the firm. A nonequity partner will not enjoy full voting rights in partnership management decisions, and he'll usually get less compensation than equity partners.
