A team of Museum scientists and volunteers visited Slapton Ley Nature Reserve between 21-25 July to sample invertebrates from a variety of habitats. Rachel Clark writes about their final day in the field.
25 July 2014
Today was the last day of sampling and we all loved it! Unfortunately Sara had to leave today, so we took the final photograph of us all together before we set off for sampling.
All of us looking a little more tanned than when we arrived. Front row (left to right): Jan, Ryan, Fez, Georgie and Sara. Back row (left to right): Rachel, Thomas, George, Miranda and Beau.
Every evening this week we've been preparing the specimens we collected back at the field centre, and it's fiddly work!
The new age of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
Some of the specimens collected during our fieldwork are destined for the Museum's new Molecular Collections Facility (MRF), where they will be stored in liquid nitrogen at -150 °C to form a collection that can be used by scientists worldwide who want to study the DNA and other cellular contents of the species in question.
Over three evenings, after our lovely cooked meal served by Shaun from the FSC, two groups of four carefully collected tissue samples from freshly killed specimens.
The sample tissue (often the legs) were put into special small plastic vials then placed into liquid nitrogen vapour in a dry shipper, which freezes and preserves them.
Left: the small vials which contain tissue samples. Right: a dry shipper with nitrogen vapour inside.
In total we spent 49.5 person-hours over three days preparing the samples from 220 specimens, each sample taking on average 14 minutes to process. We tried to ensure that we only collected a maximum of two of each species - all being larger invertebrates (flies, grasshoppers, wasps, spiders etc).
Our last site!
While some enjoyed sweeping, pootering and collecting butterflies, two of us (Miranda and I) went in search for a new site on the lake to put down yellow pan traps. We ended up on the edge of Slapton village - a four-mile round trip!
The large, miles-long Slapton Ley!
The beautiful walkway created by the FSC, which runs through the swamp fen in the south grounds of the Nature Reserve.
We did get some amazing views and got to sample right in the middle of Slapton's Swamp Fen, which is something we would not have achieved! The photograph above shows just how big the Ley is: miles!
Our last Supper
In the evening we headed off to our last dinner together before we packed up to head home. This was held in the main FSC centre in Slapton.
We would like to say a massive thank you for the staff that looked after our stomachs during our time in Slapton, and particularly Shaun who was there every day serving us breakfast and dinner!
Thank you for reading - I hope you have enjoyed our blogging!
Goodbye beautiful Slapton!

This episode begins with Emily meeting for "girl talk" with her best "gal pals." She mentions that all her friends are the mothers of her daughter's playmates. Can't Emily form meaning relationships by herself?
While she hangs out at the park these friends that are twice her age, the guys indulge in a pool party reminiscent of a Schmitts Gay commercial. Only two of the 19 bachelors have chest hair!
Ryan Gets the First Date Card
Sarah: Ryan "Fluff Head" spent a lot of time getting ready for the date—except he forgot to comb his hair. Rather than jumping out of a helicopter, they made cookies at her house for her daughter's soccer team. At least she took him to a nice dinner afterwards. They discussed every awkward topic possible and ran through the list of things-not-to-bring-up-on-a-first date. She said he's almost "too perfect, like Brad"—whoa, whoa, wait. Brad is dumber than box of bologna.
Chris: Why does this guy always look like he just woke up from a nap on the couch? Emily's looks trump all the stupid things she says. Charlotte must be a pretty boring town if hundreds of people would sacrifice their Saturday night to gawk at non-celebrities on a date. What is more pathetic: watching two people slow dance on an elevated stage or being in a band that appears on "The Bachelorette?"
The Muppets Join Group Date
Sarah: Alejandro, Nate, Alessandro, Aaron, Tony, Jef, Chris, Stevie, Kalon, Charlie, John, Kyle and Michael join Emily and the real Kermit, Ms. Piggy and Fozzy Bear in a variety show to benefit the local children's hospital. Though the guys were all terrible and not funny, The Muppets made the date enjoyable to watch. Charlie ("Meat Face") had some issues and confessed to Emily that he wasn't ready to perform. (Side note: he was in a coma after a bad fall and now has a speech impediment.) Though he is on national TV…
Chris: In "The Good Son" fashion, I would let go of Stevie ("Jersey Shore") and save Kalon ("Helicopter Guy.") It's good to see the guys finally getting confrontational instead being passive aggressive. Congrats to Jef ("Jerry Lee Lewis") for receiving the rose on the group date. I hear he receives the second "f" in his name once he hits puberty.
West Virginia Road Trip
Sarah: Emily takes Joe ("Balding Dawson") on a private plane to White Sulpher Springs, West Virginia. They hang out at the Greenbrier, a swanky historic resort with horrendous décor. After dinner, Emily breaks down in tears and dumps him. She said it was because she couldn't see where she fits into his life, but I think she meant to say it's because he looks old enough to be her dad.
Chris: I didn't realize that West Virginia had first-world facilities. Emily needs to toughen up; she's got a lot more guys to dump.
The Rose Ceremony
Sarah: Everyone hates on Kalon because he wears nice suits and has a good vocabulary. They should stop bitching and start taking notes!
Chris: When you wear non-prescription glasses, Aaron, you deserve to be kicked off the Bachelorette, and kicked in the groin.
The Remaining Men
Arie, 30 "Speed Racer"
Charlie, 32 "Meat Face"
Chris, 25 "Bobble Head"
Doug, 33 "Single Dad Doug"
Jef, 27 "Jerry Lee Lewis"
Kalon, 27 "Helicopter Guy"
Nate, 25 "Axe Body Spray"
Ryan, 31 "Fluff Head"
Stevie, 26 "Jersey Shore"
Tony, 30 "Woody"
Travis, 30 "Ostrich Egg"
It's not a good sign that we still don't know anything about these guys:
Alejandro, 24
Alessandro, 30
John, 30
Michael, 26
Sean, 28

SAN JOSE, Calif. – A strong start by freshman Andrew Vasquez and Jeremy Peterson pitched a solid 2.1 final innings on Saturday as the UC Santa Barbara baseball team won for the third time in four games, knocking off San Jose State, 3-2.
The victory gave the Gauchos the series victory, the first time UCSB has won a season series over San Jose State since 2005. The teams have met nearly every year for a series over the past decade.
Vasquez, making his second Division 1 start, allowed just four hits and one earned run in his 6.0 innings, striking out seven. It gave Vasquez (1-0) his first collegiate victory. The win evened up UCSB's overall record at 3-3.
Peterson, the senior right-hander, grabbed his first Division 1 save with his 2.1 innings. The 6-foot-6 native of San Diego struck out four batters and allowed just two hits in his work on the mound.
The Gauchos struck first by scoring a pair of runs with two outs in the third. After a pair of groundouts opened the innings, Brett Vertigan doubled down the right field line and Lance Roenicke followed with a double of his own. Brandon Trinkwon followed with another double – one of four by UCSB – to give UCSB a 2-0 lead.
San Jose State scratched out a run in the bottom of the inning on a fielding error.
Joe Winterburn's RBI double in the sixth inning brought around Marc Venning, who walked, and gave the Gauchos the insurance run they would need.
Andre Mercurio singled in a run off relief pitcher Greg Mahle in the bottom of the seventh, but rightfielder Joey Wallace threw out Kyle Gallegos trying to score from second to keep the Gauchos ahead, 3-2.
Peterson relieved Mahle and walked a batter before striking out Zach Jones looking. In the eighth, the Spartans threatened with runners on first and second with two outs, but Peterson struck out Mike Aldrete to end the inning and give UCSB the win.
The Gauchos and Spartans finish their series on Sunday at 1 p.m. and then play at Fresno State with a 6 p.m. game on Tuesday night. That game will be broadcast live online – click here to listen.
UCSB returns home for a three-game series vs. Loyola Marymount starting next Friday at 2 p.m. Get your tickets by clicking here or calling 893-UCSB.

Grilled Teriyaki Blue Marlin Skewers
Our family eats a lot of fresh fish for dinner at our home. So, it's not unusual for me to prepare fish for my family at least once a week. Here in Southern Oregon we are fortunate to have fresh local salmon, steelhead, and trout. We live close to the Oregon Coast so we also have access to fresh red snapper, dungeness crab, ling cod and tuna. So let me tell you… It's not too often when my favorite fish counter carries exotic fish such as fresh caught blue marlin!
Whenever I purchase fish, I make sure that the clerk behind the seafood counter lets me smell the fish before I purchase it. I used to be shy and embarrassed when I asked to do that but not anymore… Nothing makes me madder than spending ten dollars a pound on fish, taking it home and opening the package only to find that it is not fresh. Trust me… I'm confident that the seafood counter clerk would rather see me quietly and politely refuse to purchase the fish on the spot than to see me back in the store a couple of hours later with a bad attitude and stinky fish in hand. A lot of people I know will not eat fish because they say it tastes "fishy" and strong… Well, I say duh! Fresh fish is not supposed to be that way! Preparing a meal with fresh fish is quick, easy and tastes great!
Spiny scales on the skin of the Blue Marlin
My Teriyaki Blue Marlin Skewers are wonderfully exotic and easy to make. If you have never had Blue Marlin before, you will find that it is a dense meaty fish that can be grilled, skewered or fried. You can use fresh tuna, shark or any other firm fleshed fish when making this dish. Serve with a scoop of jasmine rice and cucumber salad. Serves about 6 – 8 people. Enjoy! Tessa
- 2 3/4 pounds Blue Marlin Steaks
- 1 cup light soy sauce
- 1 cup Mirin
- 2 Tbs white sugar
- 2 Tbs corn starch
- juice of one lime
Begin by trimming the Blue Marlin Steaks. Remove any skin. Be careful because I found that the skin has sharp spines! Cut the fish into one inch cubes. Set aside. Soak 16 – 20 bamboo skewers in water. Soaking the skewers prevents the bamboo from burning on the barbeque grill.
Whisk together in a saucepan the light soy sauce, Mirin, sugar, cornstarch and lime juice. Heat on stove to a boil and remove immediately. Let cool completely. Add half of teriyaki sauce to the bowl of fish. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for about a half an hour. When ready to grill, place fish cubes on 10″ bamboo skewers, 4 – 5 cubes at a time. Grill on your barbeque or indoor grill about 3-4 minutes per side or to your liking. I prefer the fish to be cooked medium rare. Brush with remaining teriyaki sauce and serve with lime wedges. Makes 16 skewers.

Netflix Streaming
I recently traveled to New Orleans to attend the annual conference of the Society for Cinema and Media Studies (SCMS) for the first time. It was a great thrill to meet and have conversations with numerous scholars and critics I've only known through books and essays. In addition, I attended about 30 paper presentations, most of them fascinating. The conference was massive (up to 25 panels taking place simultaneously); I gravitated to the panels which focused on cinephilia, film style, sound and music, genres, and philosophy. The complete conference program is available at this page. The venue for next year's conference is Boston; I'm looking forward to returning.
Dave Kehr has a very interesting piece in the New York Times on the rise of streaming and the decline of the DVD. He refers to a post by Eric A. Taub at the Times' Gadgetwise blog, which reports on the less-than-desirable quality of Netflix streaming. My own experience often corroborates this: I've found Netflix streaming to be of variable, and frequently sub-DVD quality. Occasionally I'll encounter a title of superb quality (a recent example: Mad Max), but just as frequently the films seem to suffer from compression-related quality loss. For the record, I almost never have "buffering" issues, and no other devices are using bandwidth in my home when I'm streaming a film on the TV.
I'd love to know what others think of Netflix streaming: Do you find it to be of good quality? Would you say that your Netflix streaming experience is comparable to DVD? I'm curious to know if streaming quality issues are widespread or if they only affect a certain section of the Netflix population. I've also been keeping an eye on the Hacking Netflix blog to see if these issues get taken up there.

My other question is, if I shoot raw, does canon have free raw editing software that I can download and use ?
Thanks for any help.

If you are interested in having your wedding in a lovely outdoor setting like the Hoyt Arboretum, you may be interested in ideas for a "green" wedding -- in other words, an event that doesn't come at the expense of the environment. Few events offer as many opportunities to make caring choices than a wedding. At an average cost of $25,000 to $30,000, weddings can have significant effects, and these need not be harmful to the environment .
Here are some ideas for alternative choices which may be more eco-friendly than many of the more traditional wedding elements:
Wedding Meadow at Hoyt Arboretum
The Wedding Meadow is located off the Arboretum's Spruce Trail, about 1/3-mile from the Hoyt Arboretum Visitor Center. It is a rustic setting away from the main roads, with no buildings or structures visible.

I name two comic book characters. You then have to connect the two using only shared appearances in comic books (official appearances in comics only - no cameos like Terry Austin sneaking Popeye into the background of a panel and no outside comic book appearances, like cartoons and the like). You have to do so using less than six comics total. Covers and pin-ups do not count - only actual appearances in the same comic book story (so it doesn't count if they each appeared in separate stories inside the same anthology). Mythological characters and real people (by the way, unless a fake name is used for a real person, like Ronald Raygun or whatever, you can use the person even if they are not officially named in the comic) are unique to their own comic book appearances (so DC's Thor is different than Marvel's Thor, DC's Ronald Reagan is different from Marvel's Ronald Reagan, etc.). But a licensed character is the same in all of their various comic book companies (so the Marvel Red Sonja is the same as the Dynamite Red Sonja) and approved appearances by a real person can go across comic book companies, as well (so, for instance, you can use Marv Wolfman from his Teen Titans appearance to connect with Marv Wolfman in his Fantastic Four appearance). Approval tends to be the key (except for public figures, of course).
Every week, whoever connects the two characters in the least amount of turns gets to pick the next week's match- (in the event of a tie, the winner is chosen randomly). Last week was Rex the Wonder Dog to Maggie the Cat. buttler was the only one able to connect the two in less than six moves. He used five. Here is how buttler connected the two...
Rex the Wonder Dog and Superman were in Justice League of America #144
Superman and Madman were in The Superman/Madman Hullabaloo
Madman and Badger were in War of the Independents
Badger and Jon Sable met in Crossroads #2
Jon Sable and Maggie the Cat were in Jon Sable, Freelance #11
buttler's challenge is...
Elric to Elrod
E-mail me your answers at firstname.lastname@example.com. Do NOT post your answers in the comments section!
Whoever connects the two characters in the least amount of comics gets to pick the connection for next time around (I'll pick a random winner in the event of a tie)!
Remember, only authorized appearances in comic books count (for instance, Wolverine in Gen13 #13 and all Marvel characters in Savage Dragon/Destroyer Duck do not count)!

The Honda Accord was the best-selling car with individual American car buyers in 2013 and was joined by three other Honda models ? the Civic, CR-V, and Odyssey ? as retail sales leaders in their respective segments in 2013, according to new-vehicle registration data compiled by Polk, which was recently acquired by IHS. The Accord, built in Marysville, Ohio1, was the No. 1 produced car in America in 2013.
Cumulatively, the Accord, Civic, CR-V and Odyssey posted retail sales of more than 1.11 million units in 2013, each earning the business of more than 300,000 individual American car buyers. Excluding full-size pickups, only one other model across the entire industry posted retail sales of more than 300,000 units in 2013.*

"We want to thank car buyers for making four Honda vehicles America's top choices, purchased one car at a time."
Additional highlights from the Polk /IHS Automotive data included:
Honda has been named the Most Trusted Brand by Kelley Blue Book for two consecutive years (2012 and 2013) and the Best Value Brand by Automotive Lease Guide for six years in a row (2008 through 2013), in part due to the consistently high resale value of its products.

First decide on your focus in regards of link-building. Each focus has to have a core phrase like "Hotel in Barcelona", then build further links to your site by making sure that there are different but related keywords for the links to the site (Anchor). If you overuse the same link text – Anchor text, your in the danger of Google discovering the "manipulation".
If you however use different but related keywords, then ranking algorithms will consider your deep-pages relevant to the relevant topic. and/or search phrase.
For me the key question is when is link-building manipulation and when is it not?

Memoirs of a WWII Airman and Prisoner of War
Bill describes his service with 7 Squadron at Oakington; the terrifying events of the night their Stirling was shot down over Holland; his subsequent incarceration at Stalag Luft 3 (of 'Great Escape' fame); periods in other camps; and the long, debilitating march back home. With fascinating commentary, vivid description and the intimacy of his experience, Bill writes about his fellow airmen and POWs, the man who shot down their Stirling on that eventful night, the heroes of the Dutch resistance and, surprisingly, a kindly and caring guard in Stalag Luft 3!
Of Stirlings and Stalags: an air-gunner's tale is available in paperback from Lulu or as an e-book from Amazon.
The book's editor is Gill Chesney-Green, Bill's daughter, who is a member of the 'Genealogists for Families' project.

JonoTech necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 116 diseños de 31 diseñadores freelance.
JonoTech is a software development company based in Issaquah, Washington. We specialize in high performance websites, and custom web application development projects. We work with a variety of clients including small businesses, large enterprises, and international government agencies to build robust software solutions.
How we're different:
Unlike many larger consulting firms we strive to create a more personal experience for our clients. Our goal with every consulting engagement is to create a high quality product that meets the customer's requirements, but we also want to make it an enjoyable process for everyone involved.
The website is currently more of a blog, but it will be redesigned with this new logo to focus more on being a consulting agency.
Small businesses, medium and large businesses. Anyone requiring software development services.
I need a nice clean logo that represents the company. I'd like there to be some sort of graphic element or mark that represents the brand. I prefer a more web 2.0 logo designs. The graphic element should somehow represent software or web design (maybe bits/bytes, pixels, or kind of a matrix thing). Overall the logo should be pretty simple, nothing too busy.
I haven't chosen any colors yet. I'd like to see some color combinations presented by the designer. Probably a gray will be one of the colors (somewhere around #444).
I was playing with a few different fonts and like something kind of modern and clean. I tried Eurostile and thought it looked good.
"Jono" and "Tech" are two separate words being combined into one. Maybe consider bolding one of them and leaving the other regular. Also consider different colors for each.
I do like this logo, but I'm not looking for anything too similar:

Rassling Cats needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 88 designs submitted by 34 freelance designers.
Need to a logo to use for my website and in game loading screen. Must include cats!
Rassling Cats Software
While struggling to come up with a name for my company, I was watching my cats fight in the living room, so I used that for the name. I'd like to the logo to incorporate cats wrestling. My initial thought was a circular logo with two cats around the outside, each chasing the other's tail (sort of like an Ouroboros, except with two cats ), but please try other things as well. My designs are always lousy. ;) Sharp claws also encouraged, I like fierce!
I was thinking stylized. Color would be great, but it would be nice for it to work in black and white as well.
- Must include cats!
- No entries that are just text!

Delving into AD&D: Infinite Wishes

"I wish I could."

And only some one who leaves comments with his phone would leave same infinate message.
- February 15, 2013 at 11:11 AM
- Rob Conley said...
@Charles, that the thing about this loop, is that you are not wishing for more wishes directly. You are using your last two wishes to get everything you need to summon another efreet and get more wishes.
- February 15, 2013 at 12:08 PM
- Jason Packer said...
You are missing the most important step - let's call it 3a - "DM interprets your wish in the most malign way possible, precluding your ability to proceed" - think of it as a BREAK statement.

Isn't that where the Wand of Beguiling comes in?

I thought you had to force them to serve you, friends or not. They are Lawful Evil, after all.
I'd just make sure you always got the same efreet. Second time he shows up, he tells you his boss wants to meet you, and whisks you away, alone, to the City of Brass. :)
- February 15, 2013 at 1:06 PM
Reminds me of the Continual Light cast on the opponent's nose or the illusion of a 200' pit cast under the oppontents' feet (one of many reasons why I dislike AD&D illusionists).
@Tim: Yes, my phone does create multiple comments. It is too smart for its own good.
- February 15, 2013 at 2:17 PM
@Roger: Now that is an interesting magic item.

This sounds like a 3.5 optimization thread. :)
- February 15, 2013 at 2:54 PM
- Rob Conley said...
With 3.5 all you need is the LE Candle of Invocation and possess Caster level 5 or better. You can force the efreet to grant you the wishes. Then you will have two wishes to use and the last wish to create another LE Candle of Invocation.

I think this violates the principle of conservation of arcane energy.

GM: "Yes, by all means, please continue to draw the attention of the immortal, vengeful wish-granting genie mafia. How could that possibly backfire on you?"
- February 15, 2013 at 6:16 PM
- Geoffrey McKinney said...
Rob, that is awesome. As a DM, I wouldn't penalize or prevent that at all as long as the players didn't try to abuse the wishes themselves. The unlimited supply of the wishes doesn't bother me.
- February 15, 2013 at 7:57 PM
- Jeremy said...
While that's clever, I don't think simply gating in an Efreet gives you 3 wishes. Or even beguiling them. I mean, presumably Efreets have friends back home, they don't go granting wishes for them.
- February 15, 2013 at 9:49 PM

Only works until you run out of efreets.

So what do these titles mean? This is not a frivolous question, or one asked to put down anybody or glorify anybody. I am just trying to understand the meaning of the words:
Yaqutatu, Zumurradatu , Lu'lu'atu, Jumanatu, and Marjanatu. What is the meaning in Arabic of these words?
Thanks for you partial answers.
Yaqut - ruby
Lulua - pearl
what about the others ???
And, I have lots of respect for the fact that Syedna Qutbuddin encouraged his daughters to study, and for the fact that they did; the same for SKQ saheb's sons too. I also understand that the point that SMB bhai mentioned is a valid point. Let this not degenerate into another endless argument.
Finally, the point that SMB bhai raised is something that fatemi dawat folks should consider. Not so much acknowledging the achievements of hardworking people, but acknowledging and recognizing the brave folks who stood with Syedna Qutbuddin, and continue to stay with STF inspite of social pressures.

Lions tackle Gosder Cherilus has reportedly taken a page from Kobe Bryant's playbook as he gets ready for free agency.
Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports that Cherilus went to Germany to receive treatment on his knee that has not been approved by the Food & Drug Administration in the United States. The therapy, called Regenokine, involves removing blood from the patients' body and treating it before reinjecting it in hopes of reducing chronic pain in joints. Bryant was one of the first American athletes to get the treatment and Brian Urlacher has also reportedly made the trip to Dusseldorf.
Urlacher didn't want to talk about it and Birkett reports Cherilus denied being in Germany when reached via text message.
"I didn't get any treatment done, and what I do during the off-season is not ur business," Cherilus wrote.
There's a picture of Cherilus on the Facebook page of a hotel close to the offices of Dr. Peter Wehling, who cited confidentiality rules when declining to comment on whether Cherilus was a patient. Cherilus has dealt with knee injuries throughout his career, but he's missed just five games over five years and played all but one snap for the Lions this season. Teams bidding on his services will obviously want to know what Cherilus is doing to keep himself on the field, but as long as it is legal (there's no sign that Regenokine violates any PED policies) and working they'll likely be fine with a trip across to the Atlantic.

Freedom in the World
You are here
2012 Scores
Freedom Rating (1 = best, 7 = worst)
Civil Liberties (1 = best, 7 = worst)
Political Rights (1 = best, 7 = worst)
The conservative Popular Party won a resounding victory in national elections held in November 2011 after the introduction of unpopular austerity measures undermined the government of the ruling Spanish Socialist Workers' Party. Spain's borrowing rate rose rapidly in November, and concerns persisted that the country would not be able to meet its deficit-cutting targets.
Peninsular Spain's current borders were largely established by the 16th century, and after a period of great colonial expansion and wealth, the country declined in relation to its European rivals. The Spanish Civil War of 1936–39 ended in victory for General Francisco Franco's right-wing Nationalists, who executed, jailed, and exiled the leftist Republicans. During Franco's long rule, many countries cut off diplomatic ties, and his regime was ostracized by the United Nations from 1946 to 1955. The militant Basque separatist group Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA), or Basque Fatherland and Freedom, was formed in 1959 with the aim of creating an independent Basque homeland, and went on to carry out a campaign of terrorist bombings and other illegal activities. After a transitional period following Franco's death in 1975, Spain emerged as a parliamentary democracy, joining the European Economic Community, the precursor to the European Union (EU), in 1986.
In the 2004 parliamentary elections, the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) defeated the conservative Popular Party (PP), which had been in power for 11 years. However, lacking an outright majority, the PSOE relied on regionalist parties to support its legislation. The elections came only days after multiple terrorist bombings of commuter trains in Madrid that killed almost 200 people. The PP government initially blamed ETA, sparking anger from voters after it was discovered that the attacks had been carried out by Islamic fundamentalists in response to the government's support of the U.S.-led war in Iraq. After becoming prime minister, the PSOE's José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero pulled Spain's troops out of Iraq. In 2007, a Spanish court handed down long prison sentences to 21 of the 28 defendants charged in connection with the bombings; seven were acquitted. In 2008, another key suspect in the bombings was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
ETA announced a cease-fire in 2006, but peace talks with the government broke down in January 2007 after the group claimed responsibility for a December 2006 bombing in a parking garage at Madrid's Barajas Airport. The Supreme Court banned hundreds of candidates with alleged links to ETA from participating in 2007 local elections in the Basque region. In March 2009, the Basque Nationalist Party lost its absolute majority in the Basque parliament elections for the first time in 30 years. The coalition of the PSOE and the PP pledged to focus on security and the economy in the Basque region, and not press for regional autonomy. In October 2011, ETA declared a "definitive cessation of armed activities," which was just shy of a full surrender and disarmament. The announcement came after a campaign by the police over the previous few years—including the arrests of the group's top operatives and foot soldiers and the seizure of weapons and bomb-making materials—had weakened the group considerably.
In May 2011, the PSOE suffered several losses in local elections. In July, Zapatero called for early general elections in November. Zapatero had been suffering from low approval ratings that were attributed to the country's economic difficulties, which included a 20 percent unemployment rate and 45 percent youth unemployment rate. Additionally, the debt crisis in Europe had led to the implementation of unpopular austerity measures, such as increasing the retirement age from 65 to 67. The conservative PP trounced the PSOE in the November elections. The PP won 186 out of 350 seats in the lower house, while the PSOE took only 111 seats, its worst showing in 30 years. PP leader Mariano Rajoy replaced Zapatero as prime minister.
In May, the "Indignant" movement began as protesters, led by unemployed youth, occupied a central square in Madrid. By October, the movement had inspired similar international movements, such as Occupy Wall Street, that also focused on the disproportionate political power of the wealthy.
In November, Spain's debt crisis worsened as interest rates on the country's debt rose drastically. In December, the new government announced a package of €8.9 billion ($11.2 billion) in spending cuts and €6.2 billion in tax increases to address the country's economic woes. The measures were imposed after the new government discovered that the deficit was 8 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), rather than the 6 percent calculated by the previous government; Spain had pledged to the EU that it would cut its deficit to 4.4 percent in 2012.
Spain is an electoral democracy. The Congress of Deputies, the lower house of the bicameral Parliament, has 350 members elected in multimember constituencies, except for the North African enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, which are each assigned one single-member constituency. The Senate has 264 members, with 208 elected directly and 56 chosen by regional legislatures. Members of both the Senate and Congress serve four-year terms. Following legislative elections, the prime minister is selected by the monarch and is usually the leader of the majority party or coalition. The candidate must also be elected by Parliament. The country's 50 provinces are divided into 17 autonomous regions with varying degrees of power.
People generally have the right to organize in political parties and other competitive groups of their choice. The Basque separatist Batasuna party, which had previously garnered between 5 and 10 percent of the regional vote, was permanently banned in 2003 for its alleged ties to the armed group ETA. In September 2011, Arnaldo Otegi, the former leader of Batasuna, was sentenced to 10 years in jail for trying to revive the party.
In September 2010, the largest corruption trial in the country's history began in the summer resort town of Marbella. The 95 defendants—including two former mayors and 15 town counselors—were accused of participating in a widespread system of graft, with local businesspeople bribing town officials for favorable decisions, primarily in city planning. Spain was ranked 31 out of 183 countries surveyed in Transparency International's 2011 Corruption Perceptions Index.
Spain has a free and lively press, with more than 100 newspapers covering a wide range of perspectives and actively investigating high-level corruption. Daily newspaper ownership, however, is concentrated within large media groups like Prisa and Zeta. Journalists who oppose the political views of ETA have in the past been targeted by the group. Newspapers objected to a proposed government regulation announced in July 2010 that would prohibit advertising prostitution in the classified section. The explicit advertisements bring in over €40 million (approximately $57 million) annually for the newspaper industry, which is struggling economically. The law was passed in December 2011.
Freedom of religion is guaranteed through constitutional and legal protections. Roman Catholicism is the dominant religion and enjoys privileges that other religions do not, such as financing through the tax system. Jews, Muslims, and Protestants have official status through bilateral agreements with the state, while other groups (including Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons) have no such agreements. The government does not restrict academic freedom.
The constitution provides for freedom of assembly, and the government respects this right in practice. Domestic and international nongovernmental organizations operate without government restrictions. With the exception of members of the military, workers are free to strike and organize and join unions of their choice. About 15 percent of the workforce is unionized. Antiausterity protests took place across the country throughout 2011.
The constitution provides for an independent judiciary. However, there have been recent concerns over the functioning of the judicial system, including the impact of media pressure on sensitive issues such as immigration and Basque terrorism. Spain's universal jurisdiction law allows for the trial of suspects for crimes committed abroad if they are not facing prosecution in their home country. However, in June 2009, Spain's lower house voted in favor of limiting the universal jurisdiction law to cases involving either victims with Spanish citizenship or some other link to Spain, as well as cases where the alleged perpetrators are in Spain. In August 2011, a Spanish judge indicted nine Salvadoran soldiers under the country's universal jurisdiction law for the murder of six priests in El Salvador in 1989 during that country's civil war.
Police abuse of prisoners, especially immigrants, has been reported. Those suspected of certain terrorism-related crimes can be held by police for up to five days with access only to a public lawyer. Prison conditions generally meet international standards.
Women enjoy legal protections against rape, domestic abuse, and sexual harassment in the workplace. However, violence against women, particularly within the home, remains a serious problem. Women currently hold 36 percent of the seats in the lower house. In February 2010, the Senate approved a measure liberalizing abortion laws to allow for the termination of a pregnancy on demand during the first 14 weeks. Legislation enacted in 2005 legalized same-sex marriages and allowed gay couples to adopt children. Trafficking in men, women, and children for the purpose of sexual exploitation and forced labor remains a problem.

St. Petersburg – June 10, 2014 – U.S. News & World Report ranked All Children's Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine as a top provider of care in three specialty areas in the new 2014-15 Best Children's Hospitals rankings. All Children's Hospital ranked #34 in cardiology and heart surgery, #48 in cancer and #37 in orthopedics care out of 183 children's hospitals. All Children's was the only children's hospital that ranked in the Tampa Bay area and one of only two children's hospitals in Florida ranked as a top hospital for cancer care.
In order to help families of sick children find the best medical care available, U.S. News & World Report ranks the top 50 U.S. pediatric facilities each year in cancer, cardiology & heart surgery, diabetes & endocrinology, gastroenterology & GI surgery, neonatology, nephrology, neurology & neurosurgery, orthopedics, pulmonology and urology. Eighty-nine hospitals ranked in at least one specialty, based on a combination of clinical data and reputation with pediatric specialists.
"Ranking in the top 50 for pediatric cardiology and heart surgery, cancer and orthopedics is a significant accomplishment for All Children's Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine," said Jonathan Ellen, M.D., president and physician in chief at All Children's Hospital and professor of pediatrics and vice dean, All Children's Hospital at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. "The results reflect our ongoing focus on providing the best patient safety, evidence-based medicine and quality care in all of the pediatric specialty programs offered at All Children's Hospital."
Scores are based on patient outcomes, care-related resources available, a clinical questionnaire to 183 pediatric hospitals and a survey of 450 pediatric specialists and subspecialists in each specialty area asking where they would send the sickest children in their specialty, setting aside location and expense.
"These results are due to the dedication of our physicians, nurses and all the members of the clinical team as they provide innovative care with a focus on safety and quality," said Brigitta Mueller, M.D., chief patient safety officer at All Children's Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine and vice president of medical affairs. "This year, outcomes, best practices and infection prevention were assigned greater weight in the formula used to determine the survey rankings and our strong outcomes and data are reflected in these results."
Specialists at All Children's Hospital have the opportunity to collaborate on treatment and research with colleagues at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore, which ranked on U.S. News & World Report's top 10 Honor Roll for best children's hospitals.
Survival rates, adequacy of nurse staffing, procedure volume and much more can be viewed onhttp://health.usnews.com/best-hospitals/pediatric-rankings and will be published in the U.S. News "Best Hospitals 2015" guidebook, which will be available in August.

Jasper County and Hardeeville representatives shared economic development updates Tuesday with the Southern Beaufort County Regional Implementation Committee.
The committee meets quarterly to discuss and prioritize actions from the region's plan to guide growth in the southern part of the county. It includes representatives from Jasper County and the city of Hardeeville because their growth has an impact on Beaufort County.
Phil Richardson of the Southern Carolina Regional Development Alliance and Hardeeville city manager Bob Nanni gave presentations to the nine-member committee.
Richardson explained Jasper County's assets that impact economic growth, including close proximity to Interstate 95 and the availability of land.
"We feel that as the county grows the region will grow. We have plenty of land and large projects underway that will bring in large employers," Richardson said.
A few of the Jasper County projects underway or in the process of receiving site certification are Cypress Ridge Business Industrial Park, RiverPort and Hardeeville Commerce Park.
Richardson said it is difficult to draw in businesses because the county doesn't have any spec buildings.
"We don't know what prospects we're losing because we're not even in the game yet. About 85 to 90 businesses are looking for existing buildings," Richardson said. "But after those three parks are through the process, we could have about 2,000 acres for industrial-type businesses."
Nanni said there are many development districts in Hardeeville making strides that benefit the city.
This year, Hardeeville welcomed commercial businesses Camp Lake Jasper, Advanced Auto Parts, Family Dollar, Wilco-Hess and a soon-to-open Waffle House.
Nanni said Sun City Hilton Head continues to grow as more residential homes are built on the north side, which is located in Jasper County and is part of the Hardeeville community.
"Sun City will have a big impact on the community in several ways in the future," Nanni said.
Other presenters included Beaufort County Council member Jerry Stewart, Bluffton deputy town manager Marc Orlando, Don Ryan Center for Innovation executive director David Nelems and town of Hilton Head deputy director Shawn Colin.
The committee is composed of nine members: Chris Bickley of the Lowcountry Council of Gorvernments, Hardeeville Mayor Bronco Bostick, Jasper County Council member Barbara Clark, Hilton Head Town Council member William Harkins, Bluffton and Hilton Head representative Ed Riley, Paul Roth of the Beaufort Board of Education, Charles Sexton of the Beaufort-Jasper Water and Sewer Authority, Bluffton Mayor Lisa Sulka and Stewart.
Riley said the committee is important in generating information about how each municipality can help the others grow their economies.

As I was running through a Sephora a few weeks ago grabbing some items, I noticed the HUM Nutrition Supplements that looked fun and friendly. Taking care of ourselves means eating right, but sometimes I need a little something to help my hair and nails to look their best. Because I really do agree with the line's tag "Beauty Starts from Within," I agreed to try out the HUM Runway Ready set ($36/30 pack). On my way to Colorado, I took a roughly two-week supply in my bag, which proved to be a good decision. These daily envelopes each contain a mix of HUM's Red Carpet and Killer Nails formulas. Each day during my trip, I found these very easy to integrate into my very packed days. I'd have one pre-measured envelope with a glass of Emergen C. Easy peasy! Although the line recommends that these be taken with food, I slipped up some days without any side effects (oops!). Anyway, the pills were very small and easy to swallow, and I had the side benefit of knowing that I was adding a little "beauty from the inside" once a day. Click to enlarge: If you don't like the envelope format, these supplements are available in standard bottles, as well as other offerings to address a variety of beauty concerns, including firmer skin, hydration and omega-3 for overall health. Overall, I was impressed with the ease of use and convenience of the line. Definitely worth a look.

I have heard some horror stories about people breaking out terribly after taking Biotin for a while. That's enough to stop me from starting…
Sounds exactly what is needed, I wish it would be available also for international shipping….
I'm confused – you picked these up as you were running through Sephora or they were sent to you for consideration?
This is the best product
Did you see any noticeable results from using them?
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Bluestone - SEBASTIAN
The younger brother of hip-hop producer Timbaland, Sebastian (born Garland Mosley) has been a part of a small pool of ghostwriters that Timbaland has relied on for his solo recordings since the early 1990s. In his adolescent years, Sebastian originally thought that his future would be in sports, but he was pulled more and more into rap music and writing rhymes because of his brother, who was just starting out as a DJ at the time.
After completing high school, he joined Timbaland and breakout R&B singer Ginuwine on tour, which is where he firmly decided that he would pursue music as a profession. The first lyrics he wrote for Timbaland were for the song "We at It Again" for the soundtrack of Romeo Must Die (2000), on which the rhyme-scripter also made a guest appearance. Throughout the next few years, he continued to make guest appearances on various Timbaland-produced songs, particularly for the Timbaland & Magoo combo. When Timbaland founded Mosley Music Group in 2006 after the demise of his Beat Club imprint, Sebastian signed to the label and found himself in the thick of Timbaland's new wave of popular hits. He contributed to Timbaland's 2007 outing Shock Value.

More than 10% of veterans who seek out care wait at least 30 days for an appointment — more than double what the agency reported in an audit earlier this month.
Acting Secretary of Veterans Affairs Sloan Gibson called the increase unfortunate but said it was probably an indication that more reliable data was being reported by VA schedulers, according to the Associated Press,
Gibson said the agency has contacted about 70,000 veterans trying to get them quicker medical care. The number of appointments pending with the agency has increased 200,000 since an initial audit was released two weeks ago, indicating that veterans who previously unsuccessfully sought care were entering the system.
Some medical centers showed significant improvement in their backlog times already, as veterans with the longest waits got in to see doctors. In Tampa, Pittsburgh and Chicago, among other places, new patients with pending appointments were waiting, on average, about two weeks less for an appointment.
An audit released earlier in June showed that as of May 15, a total of 57,436 veterans across the country had waited 90 days to see a doctor and still did not have an appointment, the VA said. The agency also found evidence that in the past 10 years, nearly 64,000 veterans who sought VA care were simply never seen by a doctor. That number had been cut to 46,000 by June 1, according to the new figures.
Earlier this month, acting VA Inspector General Richard Griffin told a House committee that his investigators identified "some supervisors" in the department who ordered manipulations of appointment data. Griffin says his office is reviewing with the federal prosecutors whether criminal charges will be filed against the VA supervisors.
The systematic manipulation of appointment records across the massive veterans health care system to show high performance when there wasn't any led former secretary Eric Shinseki to resign late last month.
Investigators found that 13% of VA schedulers across the country were instructed how to set up appointments at the convenience of an overburdened system rather than the veteran and that 8% kept unofficial lists of patients whose care was delayed.
It remains unclear how many veterans were harmed by delays in care, although at least hundreds of thousands within a year's time were forced to wait longer to see a doctor than the ambitious timetable of 14 days established by the agency.
Gibson said early in June that 18 Arizona veterans had died while awaiting doctor's appointments at the hospital in Phoenix. But he said it is unclear whether their deaths were the result of those delays.
A key problem that surfaced at the VA hospital in Phoenix, where the scandal first erupted when a retired doctor raised red flags, were allegations of "secret lists" of hundreds of veterans who could not be seen by a doctor because none were available.
The VA audit released in early June revealed that there was at least some level of manipulated scheduling at three out of every four agency medical facilities — whether a hospital or a clinic. Unofficial lists of veterans whose care was delayed were kept at 70% of medical facilities, the audit found.
It found instances in which appointment records were altered at 90 VA outpatient clinics. At 24 sites, staffers said "they felt threatened or coerced to enter" false appointment dates by superiors.
Staffers at 14 facilities said they were punished for not manipulating appointment records. "A number of respondents presented detailed descriptions or instructions from supervisors to change or alter date," the report said.
Staffers described "a numbers-driven system with unrealistic performance measures as having created a highly stressful work environment that limits the focus on serving the veteran," according to the report.
The VA has said it will cost an estimated $300 million in the next two to three months to pay for non-VA care for those veterans who can't be seen quickly enough at a department hospital or clinic.
An initial audit report that Shinseki provided President Obama, along with an offer to resign on May 30 — an offer the president accepted the same day — described a health system with a "systemic lack of integrity."
The VA has already removed its 14-day waiting-time goal from employee performance plans and suspended all senior executive bonuses tied to performance.
A VA system of 150 hospitals and 820 outpatient clinics treats about 6 million veterans each year and has 9 million enrolled as patients. While the nation's total population of veterans is declining — as the massive World War II and Korean War generations die — an aging population coupled with the influx of new veterans from the most recent wars has led to steady increases in outpatient appointments to nearly 85 million a year.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Dr. Ashraf Ramelah, an Egyptian Christian activist and founder of Voice of the Copts, said in a recent interview with Arab media that the new constitution being discussed in Egypt is further evidence that the so-called "Arab Spring" was nothing more than a front for a revitalization of the Islamic agenda.
Ramelah told The Arab Daily News that Christians in the Middle East are far worse off today than prior to the Arab Spring. Proof of that can be found in the fact that it is necessary to consider special clauses pertaining to Christians in the new Egyptian constitution.
"Copts (native Egyptian Christians) are citizens of Egypt. They do not need to have special rights. In a democratic country all citizens are equal under the law," noted Ramelah.
But, that is precisely the point Ramelah and others have been trying to make since America and its Western buddies got on the "Arab Spring" bandwagon. The purportedly "pro-democracy" uprisings were anything but.
"'Arab Spring' is a deceptive label created by Western leftists as a misnomer for the Islamic revival in Arab countries," he explained. "Arab Spring was a massive project instigated by the Muslim Brotherhood in a series of countries with the Islamic Caliphate as its ultimate goal."
And there has been no greater victim than the region's Christian community.
"Christians, like the Jews before them, are meant to be purged from each country," said Ramelah, recalling that most notorious of Muslim chants, "First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people."
Indeed, attacks on Christians have increased exponentially in recent years, not only in Egypt, but even more so in Syria and Iraq. In Syria's ongoing civil war, Christians have essentially become "target practice" for the Islamists trying to seize control of that country.

A great starter recipe: Shrimp and cucumber salad with mint vinaigrette
Photo by Juta Kübarsepp for the May 2013 issue of Kodu ja Aed ("Home and Garden", an Estonian monthly)
Back in early April, when I was trying to decide what starter would suit my Mother's Day menu spread in the next magazine, a FB-friend mentioned Jamie Oliver's shrimp and cucumber salad in a totally different context. I'm not a huge fan of shrimps - although I'm getting there, slowly - and I never figured out which Jamie's recipe my FB-friend was talking about. However, I came across this shrimp and cucumber salad recipe by Ellie Krieger, which sounded pretty good. After some minor tweaking I settled for this extremely light and healthy - and beautifully elegant, don't you think? - salad that works brilliantly as a starter.
Highly recommended. And let me warn you - I've witnessed people with impecable table manners drinking the minty-cucumber-shrimp "juice"from the bottom of the glass - it's so good :)
Shrimp salad with cucumber and mint
(Kurgi-krevetisalat mündiga)
Serves 4 to 6 as a starter
Adapted from Ellie Krieger
Photo by Juta Kübarsepp for the May 2013 issue of Kodu ja Aed ("Home and Garden", an Estonian monthly)
400 g cooked shrimps (peeled weight)
1 long cucumber
a large handful of fresh mint
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp finely grated lemon zest
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Drain the shrimps thoroughly. (If using frozen shrimps/prawns, then defrost them slowly overnight in the fridge).
Rinse the cucumber, then peel and cut into small cubes. If the seeds are rather large, then scoop the soft seeded part out first.
Chop the fresh mint leaves finely.
In a bowl, mix the shrimps, cucumber and mint. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, sprinkle with lemon zest and season with salt and pepper. Toss everything gently together.
Serve at once or macerate in the fridge for a few hours.

I'm so jealous right now to people who can eat shrimp and won't have an allergic reaction. That dish is so yummy but unfortunately I have developed a allergic reaction to shrimp just recently. :(

Troy (Turkey)
Earth : Europe : Turkey : Marmara (region) : Troy (Turkey)
'Troy (Turkish: Truva or Troya) is an ancient city in what is now northwestern Turkey, made famous in Homer's epic poem, the Iliad. According to Iliad, this is where legendary ' took place. Today it is an archaeological site and a UNESCO World Heritage Site as well. It was also recently declared a national park.
Get in
The nearest main center is Canakkale, about 30 km away.
by car
The site is 2 km away from Canakkale-Izmir highway (D550/E87). Road signs will direct you.
Get around
Explore the ruins.
Climbing up the ladders of (fake) Trojan horse in the entrance of the site is an inevitable part of Troy experience. Better do it on weekdays as the ladders (and the interior of the horse itself) may be crowded at weekends by schoolchildren on a schooltrip (a situation which makes climbing up and down those steep stairs rather unpleasent).
See Canakkale#Sleep
Get out
Bozcaada, an island in the Aegean Sea, is located nearby (within the sight of bare eyes from Troy). Geyikli harbour, which has a ferry connection with Bozcaada, is only ten or so kilometres away from Troy, to the south.

Bryanna Clark Grogan's Vegan Feast Kitchen/ 21st Century Table: The kitchen journal of a vegan food writer.. I'm on Facebook and Twitter (see links in sidebar at right).
Tuesday, June 3, 2008
I promised to post a few more okara recipes (well, 2 anyway!), and I'm posting one here today, but I have to wait until I get some raw cashews so that I can make my other favorite okara recipe and take a picture of it!
Anyway, the following recipe is a variation of a variation! The original was from The Book of Miso. I revised it to my own tastes many years ago and my version (with credit to the original) was published in my book, The Fiber for Life Cookbook. It is much more delicious than its' humble ingredients suggest, and it's great on crackers or rye bread or French bread.
Adapted from a recipe in my book "The Fiber for Life Cookbook".
1 cup (squeezed) fresh okara
1/2 cup fresh (soft, not dried) breadcrumbs (a light wholewheat is best)
1 Tablespoon water
1/4 cup sesame tahini
3 Tablespoons miso (whichever kind you prefer—I prefer a light miso)
4 green onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed or minced
large pinch EACH of dried thyme, rosemary and sage
In a small bowl, mash the water and breadcrumbs together with a fork until the crumbs absorb all the broth. Mince the onion and garlic in a food processor. Add the other ingredients and process JUST until everything is mixed. Pack into a small serving bowl, cover and refrigerate for AT LEAST one hour (preferably overnight) before serving. If you like, drizzle the top with a little roasted (Asian) sesame oil or extra-virgin olive oil, and sprinkle with minced green onion or parsley before serving.

THAT looks GOOD. It must come out sort of cheesy/savory.
I wonder if it can be adapted to become a bit more substantial variety of mock chopped liver. Bet it can. Hmmm. [wanders off to think about it]

I love this recipe! It's definitely one of our favorites.
Thanks for posting it Bryanna, which is reminding me to make it.

Looks tasty!

This is really good! I don't like okara in baking either, so I've been drying mine and using the "nuggets" in granola, but it is great to have other recipes, especially ones that are this fast. The texture was a bit grainy, like crock cheese, so next time I think I'll try the crock cheez spices from Vegan Vittles with it. Thanks for the idea; you're always thinking up stuff that would never have occured to me--

I made this tonight. It's quite pate-ish. I added 2 extra tablespoons of water to the food processor because it was having trouble coming together - my bread crumbs were probably pretty dry.
Thank you so much for posting this recipe - this is the perfect solution to the okara situation. Delicious!
