Blue Corn Muffins with Green Chiles
Dry ingredients:
1 cup blue cornmeal (check your source for gluten-free status)
3/4 cup sorghum flour
1/2 cup tapioca starch (or sweet rice flour)
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon mild chili powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup organic light brown sugar* see notes on using agave instead
Wet Ingredients:
Two organic free-range eggs or Ener-G Egg Replacer for 2 eggs
1/2 cup plus two tablespoons light olive oil
1 cup water or watered down plain hemp, rice or almond milk with 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar added
1/2 cup chopped roasted mild green chiles
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
Measure out the dry ingredients (blue cornmeal through brown sugar) into a bowl and whisk to combine.
In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the Egg Replacer with the olive oil and liquid and beat for one minute.
Add in the dry ingredients a little at a time and beat by hand just until a smooth batter is formed, about one minute. It should be thicker than a cake batter.
If your batter seems a little dry, add a tablespoon more liquid at a time until you achieve a smooth batter.
Add in the chopped roasted green chiles and stir to combine.
Spoon the batter into the muffin cups.
Bake the muffins in the center of a pre-heated oven for 20 to 25 minutes (depending upon your altitude and individual oven temperature, etc). The muffins should feel firm to the touch; and a wooden pick inserted into the center should emerge dry.
Place the muffins on a wire rack to cool a bit. These are lovely served warm.
You can reheat these muffins in a skillet with a touch of olive oil (or briefly zap them in a microwave- but don't over-heat them this way- they will fall apart).
Makes one dozen muffins.
If you use agave as a sweetener in this recipe start with less liquid- add a little liquid at a time until you achieve the batter consistency you want.
Not vegan? Use two happy organic free-range eggs and buttermilk.
Pamela's Ultimate Baking Mix (or your favorite GF flour mix) would work in place of the sorghum and tapioca.
If you have a plain yogurt you like, use a half a cup of yogurt in place of half the water or rice milk as a richer alternative.
If you prefer yellow corn meal just substitute the blue cornmeal for yellow.
Arrowhead Mills makes a blue cornmeal- but the label states "Wheat Free- no gluten ingredients". Use at your own discretion (I would call the company to ask about cross contamination issues).

One of the greenest neighborhoods in Manhattan, the Upper West Side is bordered by the Hudson River and Riverside Park to the west and Central Park to the east. Broadway, Amsterdam Avenue, and Columbus Avenue are the main thoroughfares of the Upper West Side, running north to south between West 59th Street and West 110th Street.The Upper West Side is a favorite Manhattan neighborhood to feature in film and television such as You've Got Mail, Seinfeld, Night at the Museum, and 30 Rock, and it's not hard to see why. Elegant brownstones, vibrant greenery, and beloved mom-and-pop shops fill the streets. The Lincoln Center, American Museum of Natural History, and New York Historical Society contribute to the area's cultural and intellectual identity. All who live and work in the area are just a short walk away from the beauty of Central Park or the waterfront. Companies seeking New York City office space that is removed from the hustle of Midtown or Lower Manhattan but still within a concentrated hub of NYC culture should consider office space in the Upper West Side.

Unlike its East Side counterpart, however, office space in the Upper West Side is considerably cheaper and rents for an average of $58 per square foot.

Not many things are given by Microsoft at the application in Windows 10, but so far, application to be launched on Windows 10 will be universal, the alias can be run for all kinds of devices, ranging from PCs, smartphones, tablets up.
Therefore, the developer is required to customize the application to run on all platforms, ranging in terms of looking for ways to run on devices with different screen sizes smeua. This application can be downloaded through the Windows Store.

By Doug McKelway, ,
Published December 23, 2015
With record drought destroying crops across the country, corn prices are skyrocketing, and that is causing a world-wide ripple effect, including on the cost of the corn-derived gasoline additive ethanol.
Corn prices are up 60 percent this summer, Christopher Hurt, a Purdue University economic professor, estimates. And now Democratic governors from Maryland, Delaware, North Carolina and Arkansas have joined ranchers, poultry farmers and the United Nations director-general for food and agriculture in asking the Environmental Protection Agency to waive the federal requirement that gasoline contain 10 percent ethanol.
"It's universally acknowledged that ethanol is raising the price of food," Kenneth Green of the American Enterprise Institute said. "It's not lowering the price of gas. In fact, it may be raising the price of gas, and it's having a devastating environmental effect in terms of coastal pollution."
Green says coastal "dead zones" may be increasing because of the run-off from fertilizer-intensive corn crops. But the human economic costs are potentially more severe.
The Department of Agriculture estimates that food inflation will hit 3 percent to 3.5 percent this year, then 3 percent to 4 percent next year. The U.S. is the world's largest food exporter. For the poorest countries dependent on U.S. exports of corn, the impact may cost lives.
The Obama administration, however, hasn't acted to waive the ethanol mandate.
"What I can tell you is that the EPA has made it clear that they are working closely with the Department of Agriculture to keep an eye on yields," White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters Friday. "They will evaluate all the relevant information when assessing that situation."
More recently, when asked about the president's commitment to ethanol, Deputy White House Communications Director Jen Psaki said, "He absolutely believes in it. He thinks it's a driver of the economy here and a key component of renewable energy."
Indeed, ethanol mandates have won favor in the corn belt -- where corn prices and profits have set records in recent years. As evidence of that, more corn now goes to the production of ethanol than to the production of food and cattle and poultry feed. Many of those same corn belt states, including Iowa, Ohio, and Michigan, happen to be key swing states in the upcoming presidential election.
Even if there were political will to challenge the mandates, the ethanol industry has now become an entrenched player in Washington.
"Once it's entrenched, you have a locked-in lobby that won't let you pry it out," Green said. "No matter that your environmental groups have walked away from it, international groups have walked away from it. Everybody has acknowledged it's bad public policy, but it's dug in like a tick."

- Why Choose An Abetta Horse Saddle -
Where The Abetta Saddle Is Made & Its History
Abetta saddles are made in the USA. First introduced in 1994, the Abetta saddle revolutionizing the horse and saddle industry with its synthetic, durable, lightweight, washable and very affordable design. This new design of horse saddle sold over 18,000 in its first year. It is easily still one of our best-selling saddles today!
Abetta Saddle Warranty
The manufacturer offers a 1-year warranty on the craftsmanship and a 5-year warranty on the saddle
tree. Contact us if you need help with contacting the manufacturer for your warranty issues. We are an
authorized re-seller of all things Abetta.
More about the materials and how the Abetta saddle is made:
A 1000 denier nylon, which is extremely durable is used to cover the Abetta saddles. Abetta is the only maker that uses enclosed cell-foam in the making of their synthetic saddle. Because Abetta saddles use a closed-cell foam and 3-layer lamination of nylon, the saddle will not absorb water. You will never have to worry about crossing creeks, getting caught in the rain, and even your kids dragging their saddle through the mud due to the closed-cell foam and the denier nylon protection. This protection ensures that the saddle is less vulnerable to bacteria and germs, therefore, providing even more protection for your horse.
The Abetta trail saddles are made on a genuine Ralide saddle tree. Over 50% of all saddles built the USA are built on Ralide saddle trees. Ralide trees are formed using an injection process and a metal reinforced horn which ensures absolute consistency. Ralide saddle trees are very durable. The Abetta endurance saddles also consist of a one-piece rigging, others go slightly below the jockey and bolt the rigging to the tree, and then stops there. Abetta saddles take a nylon strap fully over the tree. Although it is one piece, Abetta continues to bolt the rigging into the tree. The rigging dees are made of stainless steel.
Acu-Suede covers the Abetta saddle's seat, causing it to never smooth out and retain its look and feel of suede indefinitely. There is leather in four places on the Abetta saddle. The horn is wrapped in leather, rosettes are made of leather, and the nylon rigging is lined with leather to make sure it does not bunch up or slip, and then the stirrup leathers are lined for strength and resistance to abrasions.
The Abetta saddle is lightweight enough for a small woman or even a child to handle, also contributing to the comfort of your horse. The Abetta saddle is a very inexpensive, nice looking, long lasting, extremely easy to care for, comfortable saddle and yet still has a high-end custom tailored look. We know you will enjoy your Abetta saddle for many years to come.

Dunnington connected to royalty???
The Dunnington side of the family has been quite the challenge in researching and sorting out the facts.
Audrey Dunnington Hale was a major source of information but was not always 100% accurate which at times could be very misleading.
One of the family stories Audrey told me was that The Dunnington family came from royalty (Sir George Dunnington) and were connected to the Dunnington castle in England. To date I have not been able to prove this.
In discussing the history with Ginny Dunnington R, I was told the family story she heard was there was an Earl of Leicester who had two sons. He disinherited the older son and of course, he is our relation.
Given this new information, I researched Earls in Britain and found information about George Townshend who was a disinherited son of an Earl of Leicester. To date, I have not been able to link him to the George Dunnington born about 1819 in Lincolnshire, England who is definitely our family line.

Scoop: THE BACHELOR on ABC - Monday, January 21, 2013
A potential record-breaking date for the world's longest on-screen kiss gets Lesley M.'s heart all aflutter, while the claws come out at a very competitive volleyball group date that reveals some of the women's true colors. Sean's magical date with AshLee at an amusement park is shared with two Girls who suffer from a chronic illness. The Bachelor has one more surprise for his date and the girls: a private concert by his favorite country group, Eli Young Band. However in The Middle of this, one bachelorette takes a nasty fall down the mansion stairs - or is it just her way of getting Sean's attention? Finally, Sean stirs up a shocking finish to the night right before the rose ceremony, on "The Bachelor," MONDAY, JANUARY 21 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.Lesley M. is on cloud nine when she get this week's first one-on-one date with Sean, but she is stunned when The Bachelor shares with her that their date could go down in the Guinness World Records for longest on-screen kiss. The current record now stands at three minutes and 15 seconds. Will their passion be cemented in the history books? And will it be enough to secure Lesley M. a rose? Sean surprises a group of women with what first seems like a delightful outing on a sun splashed California beach. It's sexy fun in the sand until CHRIS HARRISON reveals that they will divide up in teams and compete in a game of beach volleyball. The winning team spends the evening with Sean, while the losing team gets to spend the evening alone at the mansion. The competition is hot and heavy. At the after party, the battle continues for the date rose. Sean sees a different side of one woman when she uses her time to try and sabotage his relationship with two other bachelorettes. Will her scheme pay off? The next day, as AshLee eagerly anticipates her individual date with Sean, another bachelorette takes a tumble down the stairs at the mansion. However, the women immediately become suspicious when the woman refuses medical help. Is it a ploy to get Sean's attention? One thing is sure: AshLee is fuming that her date is getting cut short. When the couple finally heads to Six Flags Magic Mountain, where they have the park all to themselves, Sean reveals that he has offered to share the date with two young women who suffer from a chronic illness - Emily and Brianna from the Starlight Foundation's Starbright World program, who are meeting for the first time. After the day of fun in the park, Sean has another surprise: a private concert by his favorite country group, Eli Young Band. At the cocktail party, Sean makes one woman cry - but are they tears of joy or sorrow? And another bachelorette tries to do some damage control to keep a continuing relationship with the Bachelor. But one woman sets off a firestorm as she tries to steal extra time with Sean. A startling end to the evening lies ahead as Sean provides major fireworks before the rose ceremony. In the end, 13 bachelorettes remain to continue on the journey to become Sean's soul mate and, hopefully, future wife.
The 16 women are:
Amanda, 26, fit model, Newport Beach, CA

Reoccurrence in BRCA1 Patients after Lumpectomy
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My wife was just confirmed to have the BRCA1 Gene. She is 2 weeks post lumpectomy. We start chemotherapy on Tuesday, Sept 10th for 8 weeks. She is 44 years old. The oncologist recommends that she have her ovaries removed, with which we have no problem. However, my wife would like to keep her breasts. I cannot find a good study on the prospects of reoccurrence in BRCA1 patients after they have had a 1st lumpectomy/Chemo/Radiation/Ovary removal while keeping the breast. Could you direct me please to a good study, recommendation? Thank you!
Jill Stopfer, MS, CGC, Certified Genetic Counselor, responds:
The chance of breast cancer recurrence depends on many things, like the tumor size, grade, number of lymph nodes, hormone receptor status, her2/neu status, and of course the treatment regimen selected. It is completely patient dependent, and generally this information should be obtained by the treating oncologist. With regard to the question of what a BRCA 1 patient's chances are for developing a *second* breast cancer, (not just a return of the one already treated), those chances are in the neighborhood of 50%.
It would be a good idea to make sure BRCA 1 patients consult with an expert in cancer genetics. Not all oncologists, even expert oncologists, are experts in BRCA1 and treatment of breast cancer. For patients who are local to the Philadelphia area, I would strongly recommend that she be seen by Susan Domchek, MD. If not, there are other cancer genetics programs like ours around the country. There is evidence, not yet published but known to this group, that oophorectomy lowers risk for breast cancer to a LESSER degree in women with the BRCA1 gene compared to those with BRCA2. But the specific numbers are still being worked out. Look for upcoming publications by Rebbeck, TR et al.
I would also recommend the informational and support organization called FORCE (facing our risk of cancer empowered) www.facingourrisk.org, which largely is designed for those dealing with issues around BRCA1/2 - it's excellent. In addition, the National Cancer Institute has quite a bit of peer reviewed information on their website about BRCA1 and breast cancer. www.cancer.gov

"The patent (filed by Apple) is credited to John Elias"
"Despite closing for business in 2005, it appears that Fingerworks (Westerman and Elias) filed a number of patent applications in July of 2006 describing multi-touch input methods:
"Apparatus and methods are disclosed for simultaneously tracking multiple finger and palm contacts as hands approach, touch, and slide across a proximity-sensing, multi-touch surface. Identification and classification of intuitive hand configurations and motions enables unprecedented integration of typing, resting, pointing, scrolling, 3D manipulation, and handwriting into a versatile, ergonomic computer input device."

Adolf Hitler's war record is to be published at the ancestry.co.uk archive. The website is to publish thousands of WWI documents detailing the full military careers of troops that were based in the south east of Germany. They include details of the then 25-year-old volunteer Lance Corporal Adolf Hitler, who was described as a Catholic and an artist. The records also show that he was a bike messenger for his regiment, whose role was to carry messages back and forth from the command staff to the units near the battlefield.
It is not confirmed, but it may also give details of how he won his Iron Cross First Class, a source of great pride to him throughout his life.
Hitler aside, this is a great opportunity for those UK families with German ancestry to discover these particular relatives, after all, the majority of the soldiers from the German Army didn't want to fight any more than the British Tommy, they were just following orders and doing what they thought was right.

Investors have cooled on China in the past week. Shares of the iShares MSCI China Large Cap ETF (FXI) are down about 5% from their recent highs.
The "reason" for the selling, if we are to believe the headlines, is that investors worry the People's Bank of China is orchestrating another cash crunch to teach property speculators a lesson. Call it the risk of Chinese tapering, if you will, but it is not something I would spend a lot of time worrying about. The far more likely explanation is that, after rising by more than 20% since July, Chinese stocks simply needed a breather.
I recommend you take advantage of this lull to accumulate shares of Chinese equities, whether it be via an ETF option like FXI or via purchases of your favorite individual Chinese stocks. The Chinese economy is showing signs of life again, and Chinese equities have been in a long, sideways correction for nearly four years (see chart).
After the long, multi-year correction, Chinese shares are now ridiculously cheap. By Financial Times estimates, they trade hands for 7 times earnings and yield 4.6% in dividends. Navigating the Chinese market is tricky, as some share classes are restricted to Chinese nationals. But even the liquid stocks available to international investors — such as those that comprise FXI — are incredibly cheap by world standards, trading at about 8 times earnings.
Could the recent surge in Chinese stock prices be yet another head fake? Of course. But the economic data suggest that the Chinese locomotive is starting to build up steam again. Manufacturing production just hit a 7-month high, and new orders and new export orders are showing signs of life. Estimates for GDP growth are coming in at 7.7% for the year, and Western firms are showing new interest in Chinese brands. American private equity firm KKR just announced it would be making a $550 million investment in Chinese white goods maker Qingdao Haier.
As I wrote last month, home prices in most Chinese cities continue to rise, and government corporate and personal income tax revenues have come in stronger than expected.
Does any of this mean that a Chinese bull market is guaranteed?
Of course not. But the conditions are certainly in place. Pricing is cheap, and sentiment towards China is as bearish as I've ever seen after years of stock market disappointment. With Chinese data rolling in better than expected — and with the U.S. market starting to look a little on the expensive side — I expect investors to reevaluate China in the final months of 2013.
The last big bull market in Chinese shares saw FXI gain more than 300% between 2005 and 2007. I don't necessarily expect a repeat of that performance over the next three years, but I do expect Chinese shares to outperform their American peers by a wide margin.

UBS consumption indicator slightly falling
The UBS consumption indicator fell slightly in April. At 0.92 it remained below its long-term average. At its current level, the UBS consumption indicator signals that Swiss consumer spending is continuing to increase slightly. The prospects are, however, becoming increasingly gloomy.
The monthly UBS consumption indicator fell in April from 0.99 to 0.92, resuming the downtrend following the rise in March. The indicator has thus remained below its long-term average of 1.50 for seven months.
The UBS consumption indicator is calculated from five sub-indicators: new car sales; business activity in the retail sector; the number of domestic overnight stays in hotels by Swiss residents; the consumer sentiment index; and the volume of credit card transactions via UBS at points of sale in Switzerland. The decline in April is to a large extent due to the decline in new car registrations, which have fallen by 12.9% compared to the same period last year, and the gloomy consumer sentiment. The seasonal decline in the number of domestic overnight stays in hotels by Swiss nationals has also had a negative effect. However, improved business activity in the retail sector has prevented a stronger decline in the UBS consumption indicator.
At its current level, the UBS consumption indicator signals that Swiss consumer spending is continuing to increase slightly. The prospects are, however, becoming increasingly gloomy. In the course of the economic downturn, unemployment is likely to increase significantly in the coming months, which will have a negative impact on consumption tendencies. However, on a more positive note, falling inflation, especially with regard to energy sources, is likely to bolster purchasing power and hence consumer spending. Following a 1.7% real increase in consumer spending last year, UBS forecasts a more modest increase of 0.4% for 2009.
UBS Consumption Indicator and private consumption in Switzerland
(Private consumption: year-on-year change in %, UBS Consumption Indicator: index level)
Calculation of the UBS Consumption Indicator:
The UBS Consumption Indicator signals private consumption trends in Switzerland with a lead of about three months on the official figures. At 58%, private consumption is by far the most important component of Swiss GDP. UBS calculates this leading indicator from five consumer-related parameters: new car sales, the business situation in the retail trade, the number of overnight hotel stays by Swiss nationals in Switzerland, the consumer sentiment index and credit card transactions made via UBS at points of sale in Switzerland. With the exception of the consumer sentiment index, all of these data are available monthly.

text: For years, the HUGO BOSS Group has been one of the market leaders in the premium fashion and luxury goods segment and is continuously expanding this position. In 2009, HUGO BOSS reached sales of 1.56 EUR billion, with 9,000 people working for the Company. Along with its outstanding product expertise, a global and exclusive sales network, excellent market and customer knowledge, automated logistics processes, and reliable purchasing structures form the basis for its successful business development. In addition, the brand portfolio, which covers all the key fashion segments ranging from classic tailored fashions, evening and casual fashion to shoes and leather accessories as well as licensed perfumes, watches, eyewear and children's fashion, forms a supporting pillar for the Group's success. Intensive marketing activities, as well as the involvement in the sponsorship of athletic and cultural events, or the uniform design of the retail stores enhance the worldwide recognition and image of the HUGO BOSS brands and the Company. Events such as sailing, golf or Formula 1 form an integral part of the sports sponsorship. While sport is an ideal vehicle for conveying brand values such as dynamics, perfection and precision, art, like fashion, thrives on trends, aesthetics and creativity. The Company also sets a course with high profile fashion events in the world's fashion capitals, further highlighting the appeal and acceptance of the Group's brands for key target groups and charging the HUGO BOSS brand world with emotion. HUGO BOSS reacted to the high demand for luxury goods at an early stage with a global growth strategy. Thus, the Company's strength is demonstrated worldwide by the large number of HUGO BOSS stores and retail stores acting as retail partners. As a result, HUGO BOSS products can now be purchased in more than 110 countries and at some 6,100 points of sale. Rounding off global expansion and strengthening sales and distribution of HUGO BOSS products also further drives forward retail activities in particular. At the end of fiscal year 2009, the number of own retail stores amounted to 364 (432 including outlets). The number of stores operated via franchisees amounts to approximately 1,050. This brings the total number of monobrand stores in the HUGO BOSS Group to more than 1,400 in over 80 countries.

You should have received the list rules when you subscribed, but perhaps
it's time for the quarterly posting of the FAQ, so here it is:

F. Website and Archives
1. Purpose: B-GREEK is an electronic conference designed to foster
communication concerning the scholarly study of the Greek Bible and related
Jewish and Christian Greek texts, matters of concern to beginning and
advanced students of Biblical Greek such as textbooks, reference works,
bibliography and research tools, with a fundamental focus on understanding
the Greek text of the Bible. Anyone interested in New Testament Studies is
invited to subscribe, but the list will assume at least a working knowledge
of Biblical Greek. Those interested in learning to study the Bible in a
more personal and less exclusively academic manner should join the BIBLE
2. Acknowledgements: The list is supported by the University of
Virginia. Our thanks to their management and staff for permission to use
their system for the list and for assistance in setting it up. The
opinions expressed do not reflect those of the University.
The list is sponsored by the Center for Christian Study, an independent
Christian ministry at the University of Virginia. The Center for Christian
Study has been dedicated to providing quality Christian Education since its
inception in 1976. The main purposes of the Center are to maintain a
caring University outreach ministry and to encourage Christians (and

1. Where to send commands and messages: Remember two simple
If it's a command (SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE), send it to the list requester:
If it's a message for general distribution to the members of the list, send
it to the list:
2. "Reply" function of mailing programs
Please DO NOT USE THE REPLY function on your email's software when replying
to the entire list. Mail software varies widely and unless your program
can be set to send replies BOTH to the original sender AND to the list
address, be careful to address your response EITHER to the list OR to the
original sender OR to both. Unless you are careful about this, your
response may go astray.
1. Subscribing: You may SUBSCRIBE by sending an e-mail message to
with the following request as the text of the message.
If you want to subscribe to only a digested version of the list, then give
the command
You can be subscribed to both the immediate version and the digested
version of the list at the same time.
This, the 'SUBSCRIBE ...,' must be part of the message; the subject line
will be ignored. If you must request a subscription to a different address
than your own return address you can give the command:
SUBSCRIBE B-GREEK <address>
but this requires operator intervention, and is therefore *not* appreciated.
2. Unsubscribing: If you wish to GET OFF THE LIST follow these
instructions: (You don't need to send both the B-GREEK and the
B-GREEK-DIGEST versions unless you are subscribed to both.)
Try sending the following message to email@example.com
If this does not work, you are probably subscribed under an address which
is different than your return address, send the following command to
Find which address is yours, and then send the following command to
UNSUBSCRIBE B-GREEK <address>
UNSUBSCRIBE B-GREEK-DIGEST <address>
As a last resort, contact the list-owner at email@example.com, but there
isn't anything that he can do other than what is listed here which you can
3. Easier yet: use the B-Greek Home Page e-mail links: point your web
browser to:
You will find there convenient automatic mail links that will send
"subscribe" or "unsubscribe" requests directly to email@example.com
4. Majordomo list server commands: Here are some additional MajorDomo
listserver commands:

Majordomo server
END Stop processing commands - it is a good
idea to put this command as the last
command for any message to Majordomo
WHO <listname> Show the members of the named list
D. Netiquette:
1. Respectful discourse: Those who participate in the conference
represent a wide range of theological and denominational perspectives,
perhaps even including some whose interests are purely academic. Deep
religious convictions surely characterize many, perhaps most, of the
list-participants, and some of these convictions bear directly upon how the
Biblical text is to be understood. At the core of our discussion, however,
is not what our convictions are but what the Greek text may legitimately be
understood to mean. If discussion of this nature is to succeed, proper
respect and courtesy to other list members is important. While scholarly
debate, including disagreement, is encouraged as a goal of this conference,
attacks upon the character, intelligence, or faith of those participating
are not acceptable. Criticism must focus upon the arguments of others; it
may not be directed to the individual. Those who violate this policy will
be contacted politely by the B-Greek staff and requested to conform to
these guidelines. Those who continue to violate the policy will no longer
be welcome in the conference.
2. It is considered to be in very poor taste to post to the list items
that have been sent off list. Before doing so always consult the author to
see if this is acceptable. Complaints from authors of messages that have
been posted to the list without their consent will be reviewed by the BG
Staff and appropriate action will be taken, if necessary.
3. No advertisements or job-postings are allowed without the approval
of the list-owner, David John Marotta <email@example.com>. Please clear
your requests before posting. Those directly related to the subject matter
of B-GREEK will probably be approved.
4. Signatures: It is a courtesy expected of B-Greek subscribers that
messages should indicate, at least in the "From" header, the personal name
as well as the e-address, or else should at least sign their posts with
personal names. Indications of the locality from which they write would
help personalize further for others the sender of a message. Academic or
institutional information may be appended also, but there is no privilege
associated with any academic or institutional status so-indicated.
E. Transliteration Schemes:
TRANSLITERATING GREEK into ASCII
B-Greek has from the beginning allowed every poster to use
any scheme he/she found comfortable, since we all could usually
figure out what text was meant. For those who wish some
guidance, a generally accepted scheme has evolved on the List,
with two or three matters still not fully settled.
(1) CAPITALS are used when transliterating Greek letters, on a
one-to-one basis, reserving lower-case {i} to represent
iota-subscript and lower-case {h} to represent rough breathing.
No accents, no smooth breathings. And no distinction between
medial and final Sigma.
(2) If accents are really necessary, to distinguish otherwise
identical words, acute is represented by {/}, grave by {\}, and
circumflex either by tilde {~ [preferable]} or {=} -- always
AFTER the vowel over which it would be written.
(3) A few characters without Roman single-character form are
usually done with almost-look-alike Roman characters otherwise
Theta = Q
Eta = H
Psi = Y (upsilon is always U)
Omega = W
(4) Digraphs (in the usual Roman transliteration) are handled in
three different ways to avoid two-letter transliterations, all
involving otherwise-unused Roman letters:
THeta uses Q ("look-alike", as above).
PSi uses Y ("look-alike", as above).
PHi uses F (sound equivalence).
CHi uses C (first letter of traditional digraph).
(5) Xi and Chi: There being no single Roman letter for "Xi"
other than X, the "look-alike" use of X for "Chi" is confusing,
though some use it. And some seem to like to use C for "Sigma."
Since S is otherwise unused, and poses no confusion whatever,
using C for "Sigma" makes for problems in decoding back to Greek,
especially since it is the only letter available for "Chi"
(unless X is used, thus posing a problem for "Xi"). And
occasionally someone uses P for "Rho", making problems for how to
represent "Pi".

A green (low carbon, energy efficient and socially inclusive) economy has been increasingly seen as a potential panacea for the current environmental, social and economy crises facing by the global community. Our goal is to promote economic development that is harmonious with conservation and sustainable use of wetlands.
Wetlands are often viewed as marginal lands that are 'there' for development. Increasingly these types of lands are being targeted for reclamation and conversion into agricultural, industrial and urban areas. While the direct economic benefits of such development are clear and quantifiable, the long term socio-economic impacts are often significant and detrimental. The inherent and immense values of wetlands tend to be overlooked and undervalued in the decision making process which involves, in most cases, only a certain powerful/interest groups. To solve this issue, there is a need for clear and measurable values and services of wetlands to inform and evaluate options for a proposed development scheme.
Wetlands International works proactively to develop technical expertise and knowledge on the policies and practices of some key industries and finance institutions that directly or indirectly have impacts on wetlands. These key industries include:
We work in a critical and constructive manner with the corporate sector to improve their 'sustainability' performance. We challenge their economic strategies and production system standards which disregard the need for sustainability criteria, particularly those relevant to wetlands. Currently, we are engaged in a global partnership with Shell and are actively involved in industry roundtables such Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), the Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels (RSB) and the Rountable on Responsible Soy (RTRS).
We also aim to influence policy change and commitments from various governments. Some examples of our substantive work in this area include providing inputs on the palm oil and pulpwood concession policies in Indonesia, facilitating the establishment of agreements in the Niger Basin Authority on water use, and lobbying the European Commission for the inclusion of wetlands and peatlands sustainability criteria in the EU Renewable Energy Directive.
This video tells the story how peatlands are drained and turned into oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia. Palm oil is used in many products, from shampoo to cookies. But their production causes peatland draining, peat fires, and the loss of habitats for many endangered species, such as the Orangutan and Sumatra... Read more

Sustainability criteria on wetlands and peatlands in the EU Renewable Energy Directive and Fuel Quality Directive.
Biofuels produced by draining peat soils are excluded from subsidies and support within the EU.
Exclusion of the use of palm oil for green electricity production in several countries.
Establishment of a RSPO Peatland Working Group to explore and develop business models for optimising sustainability of existing oil palm plantations on peatlands.
Policy change such as a two-year moratorium on all new concessions for conversion of peat and natural forest imposed by the Government of Indonesia in 2011.

- Page 1 LG 47LM960V Review
- Page 2 More Picture Performance Review
- Page 3 Features and Conclusion Review
- Stunning design
- Excellent operating system
- Bright pictures and colours are excellent
- Black levels are disappointing
- It's very expensive
- Game-spoiling input lag
Key Specifications
- Review Price: £2349.99
- 47in direct LED TV
- passive 3D playback
- 7 pairs of glasses included
- Smart TV online services
- Nano tech for slimmer design
We've said it before and we'll say it again: making a TV really, really skinny is all well and good so long as it doesn't lead to major compromises in picture quality. After all, for the vast majority of the time you're looking at a TV's front, where its pictures are, rather than its rear. So frankly we don't give a monkey's if a TV's posterior is a Vanessa Feltz or a Pippa Middleton, so long as what comes out the front hits the spot.
You probably won't be too surprised from this introduction to hear that LG's 47LM960V falls foul of our dislike of 'style over substance' TVs. Though it must be said that its style is truly exceptional! For despite using direct LED lighting – where the LED array sits behind the screen – rather than edge LED lighting, the 47LM960V delivers a bezel so skinny at under 4mm that you can barely see it, and a rear that sticks out just 38mm. Truly stunning.
The 47LM960V's rear depth is barely half that of a typical direct LED TV, and is achieved thanks to LG's Nano technology, whereby a diffusion sheet is introduced in front of the LED lights so that they need less throw distance to illuminate the screen.
However, it seems to us that it's also this Nano technology that's chiefly responsible for the feelings of disappointment we've felt with the 47LM960V's picture performance.
Here's the deal. Usually when we test a direct LED TV rather than an edge LED TV, we expect that set to deliver as pretty much its main picture starting point a superb black level response. After all, the most obvious advantage of going the more expensive direct LED route is that it can give you true local dimming, whereby the light levels of different parts of the image can be adjusted on a much more local and therefore accurate basis than is possible with edge LED lighting.
This should result in a much richer contrast range and much deeper black levels than you can get with any edge LED TV. Yet on the 47LM960V, this just doesn't happen. During very dark sequences the 47LM960V's pictures look rather grey and noticeably low on shadow detail, meaning that you can find yourself squinting to try and pick out even key picture information at times. Given that LG's set does definitely feature local dimming, we have to think that it's the light diffusing sheet the 47LM960V uses that's causing the TV's contrast performance to suffer.
Tellingly we've actually seen edge LED TVs produce better black level performances than the 47LM960V. The Sony 46HX853 delivers far more convincing dark scenes than this LG set, for instance, despite costing a massive £900 less. Come to think of it, we felt more satisfied with the black levels from LG's own mid-range LM660 and LM670 models than we do with those from the 47LM960V. Which isn't exactly great news when the 47in 47LM960V costs not far shy of £2,500.
Unlike other sites, we thoroughly test every product we review. We use industry standard tests in order to compare features properly. We'll always tell you what we find. We never, ever accept money to review a product. Tell us what you think - send your emails to the Editor.

One candidate for mayor is out of the running
One candidate for mayor is out of the running
CUMBERLAND - Anthony Silva, who's currently administrator of the Division of Motor Vehicles, says he made a round of phone calls last week alerting friends that he won't be a candidate next year for mayor.
Silva, 57, a former Cumberland police chief who headed up the Rhode Island Municipal Police Academy before being appointed to the DMV in 2012, has been mentioned as one of a half-dozen possible candidates for the job that Mayor Daniel McKee is expected to vacate this year.
And he didn't deny his interest last summer when quizzed by The Breeze.
But now Silva is saying the "difficult" decision has been made.
At the same time, he confirmed he will be seeking Town Hall's corner office after he finishes managing an overhaul to what was arguably the state's most detested government agency.
He said this week that running in 2014 "is something I've been thinking about all the time."
Silva, who grew up in Cumberland, says it may sound "corny" but he wants to serve as mayor "for love of the town."
But he "decided the time isn't right yet. It was a very tough decision."
He also revealed he had toyed with challenging Mayor David Iwuc in 2006, but instead, as McKee's campaign manager, helped usher him back into office following his 2004 defeat.
And he says he feels certain that based on the encouragement he's heard, "Linda and I would have been able to organize a really good campaign."
Instead, he'll remain at the DMV where "we've made tremendous strides" toward a complete restructuring of that department.
"I don't want to be known as the guy who quit the DMV," he said.
McKee told The Breeze he's looking toward the end of 2013 as a time when he'll make his future plans known. He has said he'll likely be a candidate for lieutenant governor and has put together, through fund-raisers and loans, some $100,000 on top of the $52,000 in the campaign account that was untouched during the last election cycle that saw him unchallenged.
Most vocal about his intention to replaced McKee is freshman Town Council member Bill Murray, who represents District 5, the Cumberland Hill area.
Also indicating a possible interest so far are: Musician Joseph Silva; District 4 Town Council member Scott Schmitt; School Committee Vice Chairman Jeff Mutter; and former school board member Brian Kelly.
Cumberland pays its mayor $67,800 a year. In a 2012 survey, only the chief executive officers of Richmond, Central Falls and West Greenwich were paid less.
The media tells us what to think...
The writer makes a point to quote Mr. Silva saying that his desire to serve as Mayor stems from his "love of the town". Yet, the article ends by apparently pointing out that town of Cumberland does not pay their Mayor enough, according to the writer. Instead of the writer insinuating that the reason Mr. Silva is not pursuing the Mayor's office because of the pay, why wouldn't the writer elaborate on the nobleness of a home-grown candidate running to serve the town he grew up in? The media's "tongue-in-cheek" reporting might be considered keen in the newsroom, but the general public is getting turned off to the idea of every news outlet competing to tell us how we should be thinking about every current event. IMHO. controversial reporting doesn't make a story more interesting...just less accurate. Just print the story and leave the editorial to Tom.
Stuck - re-read the article
Stuck, you are doing exactly what you are accusing, incorrectly I add, the writer of doing. The writer merely pointed out where Cumberland falls in pay scale. Please don't put words in the writer's words.
Again, even if the writer did think Cumberland's Mayor is under paid it is no where insinuated to be the reason for Mr. Silva not to run. It is clear why he is waiting.
I do agree with your thoughts on news outlets trying to tell the public what to think. It's just not happening here.
Everyone's entitled to their opinion
...but, this is the way that I interpreted the story, given the wording of the statement ("...ONLY [4 others] WERE PAID LESS") and that it was the very last sentence in the article, as to make a final point. I have been wrong before and it could be that I am wrong again, but it is my opinion of the content as I read it. Again, it's obvious to me that the media intentionallly sensationalizes such stories in an attempt to try to make them more interesting. To me, news should not be reported as an editorial. Write an editorial on a story if that's your intent, or add it at the end...oh wait.
Mr. Silva and the Governor of NJ should get together. They are both Bullies!!! Mr. Silva has made a complete mess out of the DMV. Just ask anyone off the record who works there. His answer to everything is "It was in place before I arrived" Mr. Super cop when are you going to take responsibility?

This mouthwatering exhibition of sixty paintings explores the art and culture of food, investigating the many meanings and interpretations of dining in America. Depictions of food in art frequently celebrate the pleasures of eating: elegant and orderly arrangements of cookies or cakes, lavish and overflowing arrays of fruit, or the remnants of a gluttonous feast all convey the passion for consumption. Yet paintings of edibles also speak volumes about their cultural context. From this country's earliest years, American artists have used still life painting to express cultural, political, and social values, elevating the subject to a significant artistic language. The topic of food allowed American artists both to celebrate and critique their society, expressing ideas relating to politics, race, class, gender, commerce, and how these categories define American identity. Art and Appetite includes many iconic works such as Nighthawks (1942) by Edward Hopper, Freedom from Want (1942) by Norman Rockwell, and Campbell's Soup (1965) by Andy Warhol.
Art and Appetite: American Painting, Culture, and Cuisine was organized by the Art Institute of Chicago. It is supported in part by generous contributions from Central Market, the Fort Worth Promotion and Development Fund, the Ben E. Keith Foundation, Mr. and Mrs. Ronnie Goldman, the James and Dorothy Doss Foundation, Luther King Capital Management and the Nicholas and Louella Martin Charitable Fund of the Community Foundation of North Texas. This exhibition is supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and Humanities.

Looks like the cause of death was a direct hit from a 9mm JHP to the heart. From all sounds the JHP performed well in terminal ballistics.
The alleged abrasions on Martin's fists are not well documented. The only evidence I read was a circle with "Abrasions" on the left knuckles in the pictogram. Maybe I missed something?
Toxicology reports low levels of THC. We KNEW this was going to show up no matter what, as Martin was suspended for drug possession at school a week earlier, and it was for an empty baggie and a pipe. We can do the math. Given that THC is a fat-soluble substance it takes a long time to clear exposure from your system (ie: you can smoke crack, or bang heroin on Saturday Night and so long as you keep hydrated, piss clean on Monday morning at work…but you spend an evening in a hash bar in Amsterdam on day one of a week vacation, you still might test positive for marijuana when you get home) and the levels aren't high. Unless they missed something, evidence indicates he was probably sober at the time of the shooting.
There were signs of mild anthracosis on the lungs, which indicates he was a smoker. Also he had two tattoos, that are only described as "Symbols and letters", but no notations about dental work. This leads me to believe the pictures of the young man with the gold teeth is NOT Trayvon Martin.
Also his height and weight are given as 71 inches (5'11") and 158lbs.
There are also the discovery papers here. I haven't read the whole thing, but it does document the candy, and tea, as well as gives the ammunition headstand as S&B 9mm. Given that its a JHP its probably this stuff. Says a lot for how bullet technology has come, given that this load is a cheap 9mm JHP, and it was fired from a subcompact handgun, but it seemed to have both penetrated, and expanded. I'm generally less picky about advising bullet selection for people with .45s because the round is proven even with poor terminal performance, but the general advise is to spend the money with 9×19 because you don't want that round to fail. Its an N of 1, but its something.
I'll have to read the hundred pages when I get a chance, but let me know in the comments if I missed anything, or you find anything interesting in the evidence discovery.

Most brands have different types of bike helmets in the market today. Their helmets come in different shapes, sizes, features, and cost. This makes it daunting for a shopper to make up their mind. There's no cause for worry, though, John Lyons of Moment Cycles has prepared a comprehensive guide to choosing the right bike helmet to help you in your search for a suitable choice.
What Should You Consider?
Helmet Type
Although all helmets are designed with one goal of protecting your head, your application matters when choosing one. Bike helmets fall under three categories:
- Recreational helmets: these are suitable for leisure and commute riding. They come with visors for protecting your eyes from sun glare.
- Road bike helmets: these helmets feature aerodynamic design, are lightweight and well-ventilated. To lower the weight of road bike helmets, manufacturers do away with visors. This also ensures that you have a clear view even when caught up in a tricky riding position. They may cost more than recreational helmets.
- Mountain bike helmets: these work best in rough terrains. They feature visors, have full head covers (including rear head coverage and full-face protection), and large ventilations. They are also firm and offer a secure fit. They can be used by mountain bikers, cyclocross and park riders.
In most cases, construction of a helmet involves combining an outer shell and inner padding without using glue. This creates a strong helmet that is lightweight. For racers and regular riders, a lightweight helmet is of great importance.
- Outer Shell: Many cycling helmets use plastic outer shells to keep the helmet together during a crash. A good choice should be puncture-resistant and able to slide under impact to ensure the safety of your head and neck.
- Padding: bike helmet padding makes it more comfortable. Good padding uses expanded polystyrene foam material that can spread the force during an impact so that your head remains protected. Choose one that fits you properly. Also, make sure that the padding is removable and washable because it accumulates lots of sweat. Usually, Velcro holds the padding in place making it easy to remove whenever the need arises.
It's noteworthy that some modern helmet designs include a low-friction layer that causes the padding to rotate gently around the head in the case of impact. This lowers the intensity of rotational force being transferred to your brain thus minimizing injuries. If you're a keen rider, you might want to take a look at some helmet cams so you can record your journey.
Snug Fit
If you want to a suitable helmet, you might have to visit the shop physically so you can test different makes and brands. Helmets come in various shapes and sizes depending on the manufacturer. They can be oval or spherical in shape and available in small, extra small, medium, large and extra large sizes. There can also be a one size fits all for kids, or for women and for men.
Though they have the dimensions indicated, you may not get a clear idea of how it feels on your head by looking at the sizes. This is why you need to fit it before purchasing. Make sure that when you wear a helmet, it fits correctly. Your head should compress the foam inside partially even before you have tightened the straps. Also, ensure that there are no pressure points on the edges of the helmet.
Bike helmets that put a lot of emphasis on aerodynamics and lightweight aspects may cost a lot. However, you don't need to rob a bank to buy a quality one. For less than £50, you can win yourself an excellent helmet that's safe and comfortable. Besides, put into consideration that you'll have to incur the cost of replacing a helmet after every five years or soon after a crash.

We do too - love it on toast! Reminds me of being a kid kinda. I stuck this up with the other post to add to my kitchen to-do list. Can't wait to see what you post!ReplyDelete
A drop of oil in the added to the cinnamon and sugar while mixing will adhere the cinnamon to the sugar and will avoid the cinnamon dust common to incorrectly made cinnamon sugarReplyDeleteReplies
