1. Introduction
In the current climate of health care reform in general and the Affordable Healthcare Act in particular, it is appropriate to look at insurance status on the prognosis of vascular disease [1] - [4] . Acute limb ischemia (ALI) is a serious condition where there is a sudden decrease in limb perfusion causing a potential threat to limb viability manifested by ischemic rest pain, ischemic ulcers, and/or gangrene [5] . Patients who present more than two weeks after the onset of the acute event are considered to have chronic limb ischemia. Management of acute arterial occlusion has remained as a challenge for vascular specialists. Surgical thromboembolectomy and bypass grafting has been the mainstay of therapy for many years [6] . Subsequently, thrombolytic therapy and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) became treatment options for selected patients [7] [8] . Despite these advances, morbidity and mortality, and the rates of limb loss from ALI remain high [9] . Regardless of the treatment modality used, early diagnosis and rapid initiation of therapy are essential in order to salvage the ischemic extremity.
Acute arterial occlusion leading to ischemia can be the result of an embolus from a distant source lodging into a more distal vessel, acute thrombosis of a previously patent artery, or a stent/graft, and dissection of or direct trauma to an artery. While the majority of arterial emboli that travel to the extremities originate in the heart, the lower extremities are more vulnerable compared to the upper [10] . Potential sources of emboli from the heart include atrial thrombus formation due to atrial fibrillation, left ventricular thrombus formation following myocardial infarction or a dysfunctional left ventricle, and debris from prosthetic valves and infected cardiac valves. Arterial embolization of thrombus or plaque originating from aneurysms or atherosclerotic lesions is another well-documented occurrence accounting for 20% of peripheral emboli. These typically lodge where there is an acute narrowing of the artery, such as an atherosclerotic plaque or a point where the vessel branches such as the common femoral, common iliac, and popliteal artery bifurcations.
In comparison with thromboemboli, atheroemboli are less likely to produce symptoms of ALI. Although more commonly associated with cryptogenic stroke, paradoxical emboli can also cause acute limb ischemia affecting the upper or lower extremity [11] - [16] . One series found that 2% - 4% of embolic events over an eight-year period were due to paradoxical emboli. However, the source remained unknown in 20% of patients [17] . The age of patients with paradoxical emboli was younger than the average for the entire series (39 versus 68 years). Patients presented with acute ischemia of an extremity, symptoms of deep vein thrombosis, or pulmonary embolism. None of the patients had evidence of cardiac or peripheral artery disease. Arterial injury due to trauma to the extremities (blunt or penetrating) can also lead to acute limb ischemia. In the present study, we looked at the prognosis of ALI from a financial point of view more than from its pathophysiology, looking at racial and ethnic disparities and prognosis [18] . We reviewed the charts of patients with ALI with an emphasis on their insurance status.
2. Patients and Methods
The Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the participating university tertiary care center approved this retrospective study. It was necessary to obtain patient consent as this was a retrospective review of medical records from the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, Shreveport, Louisiana using ICD-9 codes for the diagnosis and procedure for ALI from January 2000 to January 2011. A total of 96 patients were diagnosed with ALI, which comprised of 66 males and 30 females with a mean age of 56 years (range was 19 - 80 years). Time to presentation and prognosis (rate and level of amputation) were analyzed using insurance status as the independent variable. Patients covered under commercial insurance were compared to patients with government health insurance (Medicare and Medicaid) and to patients without any insurance coverage. Statistical analysis was performed using the proportion z test to evaluate differences among the groups investigated. A "p" value of ≤0.05 was considered significant.
3. Results
Data collected in this retrospective study appear in Table 1. Acute Limb Ischemia (ALI) occurred more commonly in African Americans (p = 0.0029) and in patients without insurance coverage regardless of race (p = 0.0034). It was seen that chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), hypertension (HTN), and acute renal failure (ARF) were also significantly higher in the uninsured group compared to the insured (p = 0.0005, 0.0055, and 0.0034, respectively). The time to hospital admission was significantly longer in uninsured patients compared to the insured group (p = 0.0449). Major amputation rates above the ankle were 46% in patients with commercial insurance, 62% in the government insurance (Medicare and Medicaid) group, and 51% in the uninsured group. There was no significant difference in major versus minor amputation in patients with commercial insurances. However, the rates of major amputation were significantly higher than the rates of minor amputation in both Medicare and Medicaid and uninsured patients (p = 0.005, and <0.0001, respectively). Table 1 shows the data gathered in this study as well as the statistical analysis.
4. Discussion
4.1. Incidence of Arterial Disease
On average, the incidence of acute peripheral arterial occlusion is approximately 1.5 cases per 10,000 persons
Table 1. Two-proportion Z-test is used. One-proportion Z-test is only used for black vs white comparison within each group.
per year [19] . However, during the past fifteen years, this number has been decreasing on an annual basis. That said, major amputation (MA) continues to be a primary therapy in these cases and is frequently the only treatment offered for ALI. A "pathway to amputation" has characterized the treatment of limb ischemia in the United States where amputation was the first procedure in 67% of Medicare patients. A study done in 2012 involving 20,464 patients on Medicare with critical limb ischemia who underwent major amputation reported very similar results [20] . Today, approximately 65,000 - 70,000 MAs are performed for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) on an annual basis and the vast majority of them will suffer from critical limb ischemia (CLI). 25% - 33% of Medicare patients will undergo primary amputation [21] [22] .
Many studies have clearly shown that the probability of a patient undergoing amputation will depend largely on who you are and where you live [21] [23] [24] . Minorities, lower social-economic status, age, sex, insurance status, and low hospital volume have been shown to greatly influence the probability of a major amputation. Patients on Medicare and Medicaid are more likely to undergo major amputation compared with patients on private insurance plans. Geographic location is also associated with variations in vascular procedures offered to Medicare patients before ultimately undergoing a MA. Similar amputation rates are found in neighboring hospital referral regions. Geographic differences in amputation numbers exist even after adjusting for age sex, race and other causes of morbidity. Compared with other surgical procedures, major amputation has a high rate of peri-operative morbidity and mortality. Amputations, both above and below the knee are among the top five surgical procedures with the highest mortality peri-operatively [25] . 5% - 10% of below knee and 15% - 20% of above knee amputees die prior to discharge. By contrast, rates of peri-operative mortality for infra-inguinal bypass and end vascular revascularization are 2% - 8% and 1% - 3% respectively [26] - [28] .
4.2. Cost of Amputation
Since amputation is an eventuality in lower limb ischemia, we must consider its cost. Major amputation is the 6th most expensive surgical procedure in the United States [29] . The total cost of amputations is estimated at 10.6 billion dollars annually. Medicare and Medicaid paid out 80% of this bill. This is clearly a major drain on federal resources. This amount is broadly divided in to 45% for hospital costs, 20% for follow up, 12% - 16% for nursing home care and the remainder for rehabilitation and for medical equipment. This data begs the question: Is the paying for amputations the best allocation of scare health resources? Since 80% of the cost is borne by the federal government, it is prudent to look at alternative treatments to limb ischemia such as bypass surgery and endovascular revascularization. A study done by Barshes and colleagues [30] compared primary amputation versus revascularization. This is the only study of its kind in the last 15 years. A similar study done in 1999 also concluded that amputation was less cost effective than bypass surgery.
4.3. Distribution of Acute Lower Limb Ischemia
Limb ischemia and amputation are closely related to insurance costs, which in turn are tied to Medicare and Medicaid. Amputees use hospital resources extensively with frequent re-admissions, especially in the first month. 30-day readmissions for Medicare patients who undergo amputation for limb ischemia exceed those of the average Medicare patient (26% versus 20%) [31] . Amputees require frequent hospitalization easily surpassing patients with other chronic diseases [32] [33] . To put this in perspective, amputees were re-admitted 19.5 times per person-year with a hospital stay of 71.2 days per person-year [33] . The cost of amputation in limb ischemia is close to 11 billion dollars not counting societal costs and that due to lost productivity.
It is clear that ALI is seen significantly more often in African Americans compared to Caucasians (p = 0.0029). In the uninsured group, African American patients out number Caucasian patients (p = 0.0034). COPD, HTN, and ARF are all significantly higher as well in uninsured patients (p = 0.0005, 0.0055, and 0.0034 respectively). It is difficult to compare published results of the treatment of acute extremity ischemia because of the different methods used to describe the severity of ischemia and differences in the duration of ischemia. However, it is clear that, in spite of optimal therapy, acute extremity ischemia is associated with high rates of hospital morbidity and mortality, and high rates of limb loss. Limb loss rates as high as 30% and hospital mortality as high as 20% have been quoted in surgical series [6] .
5. Conclusion
A majority of amputations are above the knee. Cardiopulmonary complications account for the majority of the deaths, underscoring the severity of the baseline medical condition of these patients. Approximately 15% - 20% of patients die within one year after presentation, usually from the medical illnesses that predisposed them to acute limb ischemia [34] . Studies have clearly shown a correlation with advancing presentation, and advancing age in femoro-popliteal vascularization [35] . Not only were African American numbers higher in this category, but they were more likely to be uninsured as well [36] .

Kalimantan Mango, Kasturi (Mangifera casturi)
Kalimantan Mango (Mangifera casturi) or locally known as Kasturi is a tropical fruit tree about 10–30 m tall which is endemic to very small area around Banjarmasin in Southern Borneo (Indonesia). Nowadays it is extinct in the wild due to illegal logging. However, it is still often cultivated in this area due to its delicious fruits.
The fruits size of the Kalimantan Mango (Mangifera casturi) is relatively small compared to other species of mangoes. It weighs around 50 to 84 grams each. When not ripe yet, the colour of the fruit is green – when ripe however, the colour changes to brown or purple-black and has a shiny surface, often with a shade of purple. The colour pattern is also one of the determinations of the variants of M. casturi. There are 3 recorded varieties of Mangifera casturi – Kasturi, Mangga Cuban and Pelipisan. The most popular is the Kasturi because of its fragrance. The Mangga Cuban and Pelipisan are often regarded as a separate species. The Pelipisan could however be found with a sweet fragrance like the Kasturi which indicates that the fruit is most likely a hybrid of the Kasturi. Much research still has to be done to define and set the status.
The flesh of this fruit is orange in colour and the texture stringy with a unique sweet fragrance. If we compare the Kasturi with the Mango (Mangifera indica), the Kasturi tastes less sweet but has a stronger taste and has a softer aroma. The flesh of the Kasturi fruit flesh is high in fibre
The Kasturi is very popular amongst the South Borneo people as well as in the neighbouring region. The fragrance of the fruits is so pleasant that there is an old song around this: "Seharum kasturi, seindah pelangi, semuanya bermula." which means: "Oh, as fragrance as Kasturi, as beautiful as the rainbows. This love begins its journey."
Illegal logging activities caused extinction of this tree in the wild. Old Kalimantan Mango trees are in danger of extinction by logging because of its wood quantity. Trees are often cultivated on a small scale by local people in their backyard gardens or on small farms.
Unlike the fast growing tropical fruit trees, the Kalimantan Mango is not planted in large plantations in Indonesia due to its slow growing process. Kalimantan Mango plantations could only be found in the Mataraman area in the Banjar district (the Banjar district is not the same as the Banjarmasin district). The people of Mataraman tried to plant a small-scale cultivation in 1980 and the first harvest was in 2005. Although the fruit is locally found abundantly, it still does not satisfy the demand.
The uses of Kalimantan Mango trees are limited to the fruit and wood. Although old trees could have trunks exceeding 1 meter, the Banjar people (an interior and coastal native ethnic group who settled in Southern Borneo), tend to use the fruits only due to the tree's long growing period. For this reason, the Banjar people choose other trees as their wood source with a similar or higher quality of wood. To get to the fruit, is not very easy as the Kasturi trees grow very tall and one has to climb very high to get to it – the fruit falling to the ground are of much lower quality.
The fruits could be eaten fresh or processed as Kasturi jams. This is however rarely on sale on the markets, as farmers consumes this themselves. Other products made with mangoes are puree, jams, juice or dodol (traditional cookies). These products are however quite hard to find as the fresh fruit are always high in demand and one of the favourite fruits of the Banjar people. The fruits are also quite expensive but to the Banjar people it is worth their money because of the wonderful taste!

Home improvement stores make growing a healthy lawn seem so simple. Purchase this product for the perfect lawn! However, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all fertilizer and lawn treatment product. Just as people differ and require different nutrients, so do lawns! If you have been asking yourself "what is the best soil for my lawn?" you will benefit from soil testing to ensure you are feeding your lawn the right fertilizer. The good news is, you have come to the right article! Here, we will discuss soil testing and how it will help you purchase the right fertilizer from your local farm supply store!
Why test your soil?
The reason we fertilize our lawns is to help improve the quality of the soil to make the environment better for plants such as grass and flowers. However, how do you know what you should be feeding your lawn if you do not know what currently exists? Many home improvement stores will attempt to convince you that you need a certain product to ensure the best growth for your lawn, but this is simply a sales gimmick for those who do not know what their soil needs. Soil testing is important because it allows you to get a clear picture of exactly what your soil already contains so you know what it is lacking and what you should add.
What does soil testing measure?
A soil test will include several measurements including pH and levels of nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium. The pH level of your lawn will affect how hospitable the soil is to growing vegetation. If your lawn is too acidic or too basic, it will not allow plant growth to take place, and it could easily be worsened by adding fertilizer that will only exaggerate the toxic levels. Nitrogen is a critical plant nutrient that helps promote growth. Nitrogen can easily be washed away by rain or sprinklers. Both of these factors have led it to be the leading ingredient in many fertilizers. However, too much nitrogen can easily burn your vegetation. Phosphorous helps to strengthen roots and protects plants from disease. Too little phosphorous can leave your lawn susceptible to rot and decay. Potassium promotes growth and plant reproduction. Soil testing will allow you to find out the existing levels of nutrients to better plan your fertilizer needs.
How do I test my soil?
Testing your soil is fairly simple and only requires you to collect dirt samples. For best results, you should collect dirt from six to eight inches below the surface and collect several samples from various places in your lawn. Make sure that the tools you use are clean to prevent false results. You can purchase a do-it-yourself kit or consult your local lawn professionals to test and interpret the results.
At Conroe Feeders, we offer a full-service fertilizer supply department. we can quickly test your soil and provide accurate results. Our farm supply experts can expertly interpret the results and recommend the right soil for your lawn. We have a variety of products to choose from and would never recommend something simply for the sale. We can also blend fertilizers to meet your lawn's exact requirements so that you can grow a strong, healthy lawn or pasture. Whatever you are growing, we can make the right blend for you! Our soil testing is always a complimentary service, even if you don't buy your soil from us. If you need help collecting your samples, just let our staff know!
Fall is one of the best times to fertilize your lawn and apply weed killer. So, there is no better time to get to your local lawn maintenance company! For all of your lawn and feed needs in Conroe, visit us online or stop by our farm supply store today.

Overall sales of air care products were declining in 2018; however, some types of air care performed well thanks to the launch of new products that consumers increasingly appreciated. Car air fresheners registered particularly poor volume sales performance in 2018, as did electric air fresheners and spray/aerosol air fresheners, whilst candle air fresheners and liquid air fresheners grew.
Air care players have been showing strong communication investments within the various channels, from the traditional ones to the digital ones, as well as in-store activities, as a way to better reach consumers. In particular, the online channel is reaching out to younger consumers and attracting new customers and it is expected to become a stronger focus of players' communication efforts.
Candle air fresheners saw the best performance in 2018, gaining ground and enlarging its share over other types of air care, and it is expected to continue performing well over the forecast period. Italian consumers' strong interest in candle air fresheners is driven also by the health and wellbeing trend; they perceive candles as being more natural compared to other air care products.
In 2018 Johnson Wax continued to lead in air care, thanks to the very good performance of its brand Glade. Glade is available in almost all categories within air care and Italian consumers appreciate its wide range of products, fragrances, as well as its constant investments in innovation, product development and communication.
In 2017 Reckitt Benckiser Italia launched Air Wick Pure, an innovative product made without the addition of water and with concentrated fragrances designed to last longer in the house. The product has an attractive design with colourful packaging, and it is expected to perform well over the coming years, also considering the fact that the brand itself is very popular with Italian consumers.
In 2018 private label was continuing to gain value share within air care also thanks to new launches in various categories within air care. In fact, a higher share of consumers is trusting retailers' brands whilst at the same time seeking value for money that private label offers, and the wider offer on sale is benefiting private label's overall performance.

This report covers an investigation for electroforming metal trihedral prisms with reflecting surfaces that approach the optical accuracy of commercial trihedral glass prisms and the field testing of the metal prisms in comparison with the glass prisms. The optical response of the best of the metal retro-directive reflectors at a distance of one mile was about three-fifths that of a commercially produced glass prism having an optically active area about three times greater than the area of the metal prism. The report concludes that the metal prism, although about as accurate as a commercially produced glass prism at a distance of one mile, is still not as accurate as its mold. However, continued improvement in the optical accuracy of the successively manufactured metal prisms indicates that the ultimate optical accuracy possible by the electroforming process has not yet been determined. Metal retro-directive reflectors produced by electroforming would cost about one-sixth as much as a commercially produced glass prism of the same optical accuracy.

Jeans, a fitted tee and a blazer or a flowy cocktail dress with statement accessories.

Onyewu planning move to England or Spain
U.S. international defender Oguchi Onyewu is eyeing either a Premier League return or a switch to the Spanish league once his Standard Liege contract expires in June.
The American will have completed his fifth season in Belgium's Juliper league by the time his contract expires at the end of the season.
After renewing terms with the UEFA Cup participants twice during his stay, the 26-year-old has admitted that it is time to move on.
Espanyol is set to offer terms to the defender, however, Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws reports that "Gooch" is set to turn down the Liga side in order to resume his career in the Premier League.
Onyewu had a spell at Newcastle United in 2007 and made 11 appearances for the side while on loan from Liege, and has once again attracted interest from the crisis-hit club, according to the paper.
However, Everton and Middlesbrough are also thought to be keen on the center back, particularly after watching his performances last month in the Champions League against Liverpool and on Thursday against the Toffees in the UEFA Cup.
"My contract will soon end and I do not intend to sign," he told the press. "I've already twice extended my contract and after five years it is time that I look elsewhere."
There is a possibility that Standard will let its star leave in January in order to ensure a fee is received in return for his services.

A Real Peach is a noir inspired Midlands short
Midlands Movies showcases new crime-noir film "A Real Peach" which has an unusual origin story that happened more by accident than by design.
The story of the short starts with Raya Films and their film "Do Something, Jake". In that feature, the protagonist Jake watches old black and white movies so the filmmakers came up with a unique way of avoiding rights issues by filming their own film-within-a-film.
Screenwriter Caroline Spence decided that if they were going to go to the trouble of producing clips reminiscent of the 1940s noir era, they could edit them together to make a short film and subsequently "A Real Peach" was born.
Made in the Quorn/Loughborough area Leicestershire, the film uses the tropes of the genre with covert meetings, a murdered tenant, a dangerous criminal and some thoroughly dashing chaps - all unwittingly linked by 'a real peach' of a plan.
Originally comprised of seven separate vignettes, the extra black and white footage inserted into the feature was influenced by Caroline Spence's love of the genre.
"I grew up watching a lot of movies from the '30s and '40s," explains Caroline, "so it was fun shaping the characters and recreating movie dialogue of the era. Many of the character names are taken from some of my favourite films from Mrs Muir (1947) and The Cat and The Canary (1939) as well as some iconic actors of the day like Vivien (Leigh) and Rex (Harrison)".
Shot in just in one day at Quorn Village Hall with zero budget, the short benefited greatly from period costumes organised by theatre director Sharon Scott. Add to that lighting and cinematography from Nick Williams, direction from James Smith, and original score by Nikolas Labrinakos, the producers achieved their goal of recreating a classic crime noir look that feels as if it was shot circa 1939.
A Real Peach's teaser trailer can be viewed above and is already out to film festivals whilst Do Something, Jake is scheduled for release Summer 2017.

Can You Run?
May 20, 2013Or, do you run? That is probably a better question. If you don't run, you may want to entertain the idea, providing that you are physically able to run. If you are not physically able to run because of movement issues, or pain, you don't have to settle for that – your body was made to run!
Running is awesome! And I'm not talking about jogging. I'm talking about running - as if a bear was chasing after you. Or, better yet, running as if you were chasing after a bear! We were simply made to run, to float across the ground like a gazelle. If you don't believe me, just look at those wonderful calves on the back of your legs. Most people just view calves as shock absorbers, but calves are also like spring-loaded pistons that have the purpose of launching us across the ground.
We were built for speed. Even if you don't think so! We are all sprinters, or at least we should be. Sprinting (aka, running) is a cross-lateral movement much like crawling. It is just a lot more violent: powerful and fast.
Crawling and Sprinting are the wonderful bookends to our locomotive spectrum (on land). They are both cross-lateral movements that nourish and develop both the brain and body. Crawling ties the body together and prepares your body to generate and transfer force. Sprinting also ties the body together but prepares the body to transfer high forces. In other words, sprinting prepares you for "life" at speed.
Life is not always steady and calm. Sometimes we have to move quickly. Sometimes we have to jump unexpectedly. Sometimes we have to fight. Sometimes we have to sprint from bears or other not-so-friendly things. Sprinting prepares us for all of these chaotic, violent things that life offers. Running fast prepares us to overcome!
As I said earlier, if you can't run because of physical issues, you don't have to settle for that. You can regain the body you were meant to have. You really can – especially if you believe you can. Your body is resilient and the body you have today is capable of dramatic change. You can become a sprinter because you are a sprinter.
These are just a few benefits of sprinting:
- Builds strong, powerful, forceful muscles
- Strengthens connective tissues
- Nourishes the brain, therefore it improves the body's movements
- Increases the metabolism
- Turns ordinary citizens into supermen (or superwomen)
If you want to look strong and be strong, sprint. Period. It is that simple.
Again, make sure you are moving well and have a solid foundation if you are new to sprinting. And, know that you don't have to sprint full speed. Half speed is a great place to start. (half speed is not a jog, it is a sprint! We don't jog!) Also, you can sprint uphill. It is easier to ease into sprints uphill.
To sum up, sprinting rocks. If you don't sprint, you are missing out. Not sprinting is like not using a wonderful gift you have been given. Sprinting can change your life. Being able to sprint, could even save your life.

It would be difficult to prove that Mike Huckabee may be tipping his hat a bit as to his Presidential aspirations when looking at his upcoming book tour, but don't overlook it as coincidence either. The tour scheduled to promote the former Arkansas Governor's newest book, A Simple Government, is heavy on stops in early primary states.
The tour, details of which were first reported by CNN, starts late next month in Iowa, hitting 6 cities in the Hawkeye state. On the docket are Des Moines, Davenport, Dubuque, Waterloo, Cedar Rapids and Iowa City. Huckabee will then spend a couple of days touring Midwestern states before traveling to another early primary state, South Carolina, which is the third state on the GOP primary calendar. The South Carolina stops consist of Florence, Columbia, Anderson, Greenville and Spartanburg. Huckabee won the Iowa caucuses in 2008 and performed well in South Carolina as well.
For someone who isn't sure they are even running for President in 2012, the book tour schedule certainly doesn't hurt if that decision is leaning to a 'yes'. Huckabee has performed strongly in a string of recent polls, as he highlighted during an interview with Fox News on Thursday. "What can I say? The American people are extremely smart," Huckabee said with a smirk. "I've always said it. That proves it. What else can I say?"
Then there's the book itself. The subject matter is tailor-made for the small-government sentiment dominating national politics and the Republican Party.
The book is divided into 12′ prescriptions' for creating a simpler, more commonsense federal government. And though his suggestions touch on everything from defense policy to immigration, the message is consistent: a smaller, less complicated government is a better government.
How well the book sells could also weigh heavily on Huckabee's decision to run or not to run in 2012. Should he choose to make another go at it, he would be leaving his very economically prosperous TV and radio gigs to mount a campaign. Considering that he just built a $3 million dollar house in Florida with a $2.8 million mortgage…………….the success of his book may very well be the deciding factor for the Huck.

When in London, the one place we visit often is Canada Water. The initial reason was the main store of Decathlon UK, but now that we know that area is one of the best places for street food too, it's hard to decide now which is the main reason. But do not expect a huge street food market here. Known as the Deal Porters' Square Street Food Market, it is opposite the Canada Water Library.
The first stall we tried here was One Love. The first experience of Carribean food in London was not good for us. We tried a stall in Borough Market and it was horrible. Not for the taste, but for the owner's dishonesty. The chicken rice had only pumpkins and not a single piece of chicken. So, our expectations were not high. We ordered a large Jerk Burrito with beef.
The owner here is a fun person, and as he was preparing we noticed the amount of meat he added. Pretty impressive by London standard compared to the 7.5 pounds he was charging. He asked whether we would like to have plantains in it? We never tried plantains with meat, though we use it for a spicy kofta curry. So asked him to add it. It would be a new experience.
Carribean food is very similar to Indian food and the curries taste similar. Guessing we are from India he asked if we would like to make the wrap spicy. Like real Indian spicy, he asked. We gladly agreed and he added a good dose of hot pepper sauce before handing over the wrap to us.
The size was good and the very first bite blew us away. Well seasoned soft meat, hot sauce, a bit toned down by the rice along with the sweetness of the plantain. I know people who do not add plantains to meat dishes might find it a bit odd. But our suggestion would be to go with it. It is a seriously satisfying combo. Another good thing was we found meat pieces all along till the bottom of the wrap. Not a few pieces centred in the middle or decorated on top. This was one solid meal and good value for money.
This is a good place to eat if you are nearby, and we really loved the One Love stall.

No Evidence Of Any Foul Play In Anthony Bourdain's Death: Prosecutor
PARIS — There is no evidence of foul play or violence in celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain's death in a French hotel room, a French prosecutor said Saturday.
The famed cook, writer and host of the CNN series "Parts Unknown" killed himself Friday in a luxury hotel in the ancient village of Kaysersberg, Christian de Rocquigny, the prosecutor of Colmar in France's eastern Alsace region, said in a phone interview.
Olivier Nasti, the chef and owner of Le Chambard, the luxury hotel in Kaysersberg where Bourdain took his life, paid tribute to his colleague Saturday.
"It is with great respect for the leader, the author, the TV entertainer, the visionary Anthony Bourdain that I express all my condolences to his family and to the anonymous people around the world who he made dream so much," Nasti said in a statement Saturday.
"It is the whole family of French gastronomy that joins me, to renew our deep friendship to our bereaved American brothers," he added.
Bourdain was Jewish. His mother Gladys (née Sacksman) was an editor at The New York Times. His father was Catholic, and Bourdain said he did not have a religious upbringing.
In a 2013 episode of his show, Bourdain took viewers to Jerusalem, Gaza, and the West Bank.
Focusing on what he called "the most contentious piece of real estate in the world," Bourdain used the episode to reveal his own Jewish heritage: "I've never been in a synagogue. I don't believe in a higher power," he told viewers. "But that doesn't make me any less Jewish, I don't think."
During the show, Bourdain puts on tefillin by the Western Wall, takes a walking tour of the Old City with famed international chef Yotam Ottolenghi, eats a meal with an American-born settler, chats with members of the first all-Palestinian race car team in Ramallah, and eats fire-roasted watermelon and other Palestinian foods in Gaza.

In the program development stage, individual will engage in needs assessment relating to existing representation of entrepreneurs locally and will develop relationships and partnerships within the local entrepreneurial community, practicing bar, funders and local university communities. The Program Director will work with faculty at the School of Law and the Dean to develop the academic component of the Program, which is anticipated to include both classroom instruction elements and clinical or quasi-clinical learning elements permitting law students to work hands-on with start-up ventures under attorney or faculty supervision. As the program develops, the potential exists for the incumbent to actively teach a portion of the developed classroom, clinical or quasi-clinical learning elements of the program. As part of the non-academic component of the Program, the Director will plan and coordinate one or more events or public programs annually relating to Law and Entrepreneurship. In coordination with development staff, the Program Director will also determine opportunities for future funding and prepare proposals for funding to support the long-term viability of the Program.

Gordon Smith at Conglomerate has posted on and off about whether "law and entrepreneurship" is really a field of study. Pitt's venture isn't really part of that debate, at least not yet; rather, the law school is hoping to make a tangible contribution to economic development efforts in the Pittsburgh region, most of which center on health care, IT, and software. Pittsburgh is a jewel of a city: small but accessible and convenient to bigger things; relatively inexpensive; and home to thriving arts and tech communities. Someone with energy, enthusiasm, and vision can make an impact here. For more on all that, and how it relates to Pittsburgh's steel heritage, stop by Pittsblog.

Excellent experience all around. Superb tour and tasting. Food in restaurant is prepared very well
Valentin did a really good job
We loved our experience!
Very nice meal and wine pairing. The tour was great because we were able to experience harvest and see some work being undertaken.
Le Chateau de Candale vaut Le voyage.
Nous avion réservé une visite privée mais en raison d'un problème d'organisation nous avons fait la visite en groupe (avec notre accord et une ristourne financière) Nous avons cependant du attendre que le groupe ait fini de passer commande avant de pouvoir déguster. Le temps d'attente fut donc long ce qui a été un peu gênant
Valentin our tour guide was excellent but the service at lunch was not. We were mostly ignored by the wait staff and sat for almost 30 mins without anyone bringing us a beverage. We finally had to ask someone for service. But he food was very good.
Visite très interessante, repas exceptionnel et vins super bon. De plus, l'equipe fut très accueillante, sympathique et professionnelle. Merci pour tout, rien à redire :)
The joint best tour of the day. The guide was outstanding - we were made to feel really welcome and the whole experience including the dinner was excellent. We purchased a few cases of wine and overall we will definitely visit again.
Très bon accueil. Endroit magnifique au milieu des vignes. Une bonne découverte et un repas délicieux.
Merci pour votre accueil!
Really lovely visit meal and tasting. Made to feel very welcome and really looked after
We enjoyed our experience very much. The location is beautiful, the people are friendly and the wine and food were wonderful.
The tour and wine tasting were very nice, but the lunch was the most drawn out thing I could have possibly imagined. We appreciate a leisurely lunch, but we were completely ignored when the larger groups of businessmen came in. The food was good, but not outstanding. We also ordered a case of wine to be shipped to the US. It was forgotten to take off the %20 from the cost, which luckily we caught. Today I got an email that they cannot ship it to us directly because of some regulation and need another address. This really should have been noticed when we placed the order! The vineyard was lovely, and great wines, but I wouldn't say I would recommend it to a friend, mostly due to the lack of good service.
We will consider now that we have returned home.
Valentin was extremely polite and helpful. His English was brilliant and he really took the time to give us a detailed tour. He was also on hand throughout the meal to ensure that the food was served correctly and that surplus cutlery etc was provided. Really lovely young man!
also had lunch there, would have bought a case of wine but the shipping was way too expensive, too bad, would love to have shared with my wine club
Lovely place, spotlessly clean and lunch to die for.
Un grand merci à Valentin pour sa gentillesse !!
Great château to visit. Château de Candale is a good blend of traditional and modern. The meal was delicious, delicate and well presented. The wine tasting was excellently paired with the three course meal. The wines were of very good quality, especially the Candale 2010. Our guide was friendly and enthusiastic about sharing information on the château and its wines.

Amy Gonzalez, a ROCK Leader and owner of The Holistic Dietitian is excited to introduce you to Andrea our Mansfield Host.
Andrea has been a ROCKer since the last Mansfield pickup location was open few years back. It's hard not to get a smile on your face when you're around her. She radiates a gentleness and joyfulness.
If you come out to their pickup, you may also meet her husband, who steps in to help hand out goodies and you may also be greeted by her adorable little boy, who is 20 months old.
A cool little fact about Andrea is that her and her hubby are originally from Seattle, then lived in New York for a bit, and then migrated to the great state of Texas!
Her entrance in the REAL food movement began after she read Fast Food Nation, the Omnivore's Dilemma and a few other Michael Pollan books. When living in New York, they shopped at greenmarket, which is their fancy term for farmers markets. Then once they landed in Texas, got plugged in to a local CSA before finding ROCK!
Andrea has a such a serving heart; it's hard to find such a gem and we are truly honored to have her as a part of the team at ROCK.
Please help us in thanking Andrea for helping us bring the #realfoodmovement to the Mansfield/South Arlington/South Grand Prairie/Midlothian/Waxahachie area!

The long short story of the zipper begins with the guy who also invented the lockstitch sewing machine (Who knew!) Elias Howe Jr. received the first US patent for a lockstitch sewing machine in 1846. His lockstitch machine ran at 250 stitches per minute out stitching five of the fastest hand sewers. Unbelievably, after the sewing machine attracted little attention in the US, Howe set off to find his fortune in England. The machine gained little traction in England. Howe eventually sold his UK patent rights for the bargain price of £250.
Howe returned to the United States penniless, found his wife dying, and the sewing machine manufactured by other companies in violation of his patent. In 1854, after years of litigation, the courts upheld his patent rights for the sewing machine. After years of disappointment he became on of the riches men in America, his annual income went from $300 per year to over two hundred thousand dollars a year. In the next twelve years he earned nearly two million dollars from royalties. Howe received royalties on all sewing machines produced in the United States until his patent expired in 1867.
For most of his life Elias Howe was a penniless frail mane that lived with his family. He dealt with lying, backstabbing, bickering and years of litigation to bring us an invention that would change the fashion industry forever.
So what about the zipper?
in 1851, Elias Howe received a patent an "Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure." Howe's zipper had the similar function to the modern zipper operated in a different manner. The Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure consists of a series of clasps united by a connecting-cord. When shut, the zippered created a gathered effect, not the straight design of modern zippers. After receiving the patent, Howe did not go any further with his invention.
It would be 42 years later before Whitcomb Judson would pick up where Elias Howe left off.
Want to know the whole story?
Do yourself a favor and read this article on Elias Howe by Alex Askaroff. He has written a truly inspiring story about the man who changed the fashion industry.

The Zipper
The History of the Zipper
It was a long way up for the humble zipper, the mechanical wonder that has kept our lives "together" in many ways. The zipper has passed through the hands of several dedicated inventors, though none convinced the general public to accept the zipper as part of everyday fashion.

Access TLC Hospice Foundation was founded in 1996 as a 501(c) (3) nonprofit charity, at a time when it became apparent that many terminally ill patients in our community needed assistance. Despite public and privately funded insurance coverage for hospice, many people are uninsured, under insured, or in such financial need that they cannot afford care that is critical to quality of life, at the end of life. The mission of Access TLC Foundation is to provide financial support to low income and indigent patients and their families, to improve the quality of life at the end-of-life.

If you have a question that is not answered here, please contact us and we will be happy to help
We are the biggest Credit Union in the East of England. We have over 3,800 members in Norfolk, Suffolk, and Cambridgeshire.
Eastern Savings & Loans Credit Union was established in 2001, when the Registry of Friendly Societies gave permission for Ipswich Credit Union to operate across the town. In 2005 this extended to the whole county and in 2014 Ipswich & Suffolk Credit Union merged with Norfolk Credit Union and Cambridge City Credit Union, becoming Eastern Savings & Loans Credit Union.
We serve our members on a not-for-profit basis. Being owners, our members have a big say in the way we operate, and can vote to choose the directors who govern the organisation and make other important decisions. Each member's ideas and opinions are valued equally no matter how much or how little they have in savings.
Credit Unions are regulated financial cooperatives. The profits are shared with their customers. Credit Unions have been operating in the UK since 1964. There are Credit Union based on profession like BAE systems, Royal Mail, Police or NHS, or based on geography like ours. You can find your local Credit Unions at Find Your Credit Union website, which lists all the Credit Unions in the UK.
Credit union members' savings provide a large pool of funds to lend to those members who wish to borrow. Interest on the members' loans (which – unlike many other lenders - is capped at an affordable rate, by law) pays the credit union's running costs and allows funds to be re-invested in further development. Any surplus funds are then paid back to the members as a dividend on their savings.
In a credit union, lending decisions are normally made by people, not computers. By carefully assessing each applicant's personal circumstances we focus on affordability and tailor the repayments to each member's situation.
Credit Unions provide safe savings, affordable loans and other financial products to over 1.2 million members in Great Britain. Across the world there are now 68,800 credit unions in 109 countries with over 235 million members. Find out more on the WOCCU website.
Your savings are protected by the FSCS, and our processes our approved by the Charted Institute of Payroll. We are also regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and regulated and authorised the Prudential Regulatory Authority for all of our loans.
Organisations like Money Expert and government bodies like The Money Advice Service all have information of their website about Credit Unions.
We also have a trade body called ABCUL, more information about Credit Unions in the UK can be found here.
Our loan interest rates have been designed to offer an ethical alternative to Banks, Credit Cards and Payday or Doorstep lenders. Part of the way we give back our profit to our members is by offering reduced interest rates on loans. As a Credit Union, the maximum interest rate we can charge is set at 3% per month by the Credit Union Act 2012. Giving you the security that we will not hike up the rates in the future, it is enshrined in law.
To join our 3,800 strong members, you just need to live in Suffolk, Norfolk or Cambridgeshire. If you live or work outside that area, you just need to work for one of our Payroll Partners. The full list can be found here. If your employer is not currently signed up, let us know, and we will get in touch with them.
To offer you one of our loans, you will need to meet the following criteria.
• Aged 18 or over
• You have not been discharged bankrupt or completed a Debt Relief Order in the last 3 years.
• You have not completed an Individual Voluntary Agreement (IVA) / or a debt management plan within the last 2 years.
• You are borrowing for their personal needs and not for business or towards buying property.
If you do have a County Court Judgement (CCJ) you will need to provide evidence you are addressing this debt.
No, as a Credit Union, we are ethical and more human-centric than other financial institutions. We're focused on achieving more to together. As you are able to save while repaying your loan, we actively support you in breaking the cycle of debt. For many debt consolidation loans we are able to reduce your monthly debt repayments. All our loans have to pass an affordability check, which ensure any loan we offer is in your best interest.
As an ethical financial institution, we will never use debt chasing company, and do NOT charge late repayment fees. Our whole process, is about supporting our members. We do this by adapting repayment amounts and frequency to suit the member and freezing interest.
To become a member you will need to complete a membership form and loan application form if you wish to borrow from us. These forms are very straight forward and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. You will need to fill in a Payroll deduction form if you would like to start savings and making loan repayments direct from your salary. You employer will not know what the deductions are for, and can be changed when you have finished repaying your loan.

2 students taken to the hospital for heat-related illness in SE Charlotte
CHARLOTTE, NC (FOX 46) - Two students were transported to the hospital Thursday after an illness attributed to heat was reported at a southeast Charlotte middle school, according to CMS.
Charlotte Fire and Medic responded to McClintock Middle School and treated a dozen students after they reported symptoms of feeling dizzy and lightheaded. One student even fainted.
CMS said they're working to determine the exact cause of the illness.
At this time, it appears to be heat related due to warmer temperatures, they said. CMS facilities crews said they will continue to check the school building Thursday evening.
For parents like Ginny Mehltretter, she said the entire incident is puzzling, "I have no idea, it's just baffling."
"Our dismissal proceeded as normal this afternoon and afterschool activities will take place as scheduled, including the Annie production," Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools said in a written statement, released on Thursday.

The Steel Legion are a mechanised infantry force, with over 90% of them travelling in a vehicle of some sort. Because of this they are notably equipped with a Las-Carbine rather than a more traditional Las-Rifle. To give some stability during shooting a folding steel stock had been added to the model of the Las Carbine, this is what I was attempting to model in the following pictures: -

Perfect construction. I know real folding stocks are large enough to fit around the full width of an assault rifle. I think making these slightly thinner would not only fit better in your toy soldier's arms, but would look much more "in scale", despite the bulky nature of the plastic lasgun.
I love compact, assault-style weapons for IG, so I'm smacking myself on the head right now, saying "now why didn't I think of that?" It's an simple, elegant solution, and I'm keeping it in mind for a future army.

I'm so happy with my new lens, it's awesome! Can't wait to get an interior-assignment again, so I can really find out all the amazing things I can do with it!
I've also been playing around with digital crossprocessing, it's a very cool way to make your otherwise-maybe-not-so-interesting photo much more amazing. And funnily enough, when it used to happen 'in the old days'… OK I'm not that old, but I remember in Indonesia, where I grew up, I once had a roll of film I shoot on holiday, which turned out very, very blueish. I wasn't amused. And look at me now, working hard on making my pictures look like that! Yeah, life's weird.

Thank you, everybody, for your prayers. God is answering in a big way (though never the way I expect). I've been in contact with Wycliffe members in Brazil about their need for a teacher. Teaching in Brazil sounds absolutely awesome to me. However, I know that God's plans are not always my plans so I've been cautious to wait for his direction.
In the last week, a lot of things have been lining up for me to go to Brazil to teach in the coming school year (August to May). The missionaries there have been praying for me as well. Now it seems the flood gates have opened. I'm receiving emails from all over Wycliffe to help me go south of the equator. As I gather the necessary information together and apply for my visa, I'm working on raising financial support. At this time, I am still getting the details together on how that will work. Since I'll be working with Wycliffe Bible Translators, they have asked that I become a Wycliffe Associate.
Please continue to pray that I will not be overwhelmed but that God will bring all of this together in his time. Thank you, again, for all your prayers! Praise God; he is answering!

At one time Seaham Park were feared, but more recently they have struggled year after year.
And after making the customary poor start to the present season it appeared that they would again finish close to the bottom of the table.
But they go into tomorrow's final game of the season at Boldon CA with high hopes of finishing seventh from top, which would be a significant improvement on last year when they ended second from bottom.
"We have certainly shown a bit of improvement and quite frankly I am pleased with the progress we have made," declared long-serving official Billy Giblin, who has been connected with the club for 40 years.
"We have won four games and drawn nine and in the second half of the season we have not had to look over our shoulders at the bottom.
"In fact, had it not been for bachelor nights and weddings I am sure we would have done even better! We have had to field weakened sides but more recently we have turned out stronger line-ups and we have been rewarded, especially at Castle Eden when we just about ended their title aspirations."
Giblin is also pleased with the performance of the four junior teams, in particular the under-18s and under-11s, who won their championships.
David Moorhead returns at second-bottom Boldon CA but John Witton and Michael McNicholas are doubtful.
Murton are expected to wrap up their first championship since 1998. They visit their only challenger, Silksworth, tomorrow needing just six points out of a possible 20. But even if they miss out they will have another opportunity on Sunday against Peterlee, in the only game to be played. The fixture was recently postponed because Peterlee staged a festival on the ground.
TOMORROW'S FIXTURES: Castle Eden v Easington, Bill Quay v Peterlee, Boldon CA v Seaham Park, Dawdon v Hylton, Silksworth v Murton, Ryhope v Houghton. Sunday: Peterlee v Murton.

RLS had come to Monterey to wait for his future wife's divorce to become final.
The Story of a Lie was published on the New Quarterly Review, in October 1879.
Dr. J.P.E. Heintz lodged at the 'French House', a rough rooming-house run by Manuela Girardin, his mother-in-law. RLS took meals at the doctor's house and when he became ill, Dr and Mrs Heintz took him in and nursed him. The 'French House' is now a museum ('Stevenson's House').
The 'French restaurant' was run by Jules Simoneau (1820-1908), who became RLS's lifelong friend and correspondent.
In 1879 the population of Monterey was about 400.
[Dots between square brackets indicate cuts made by Sidney Colvin. For full, correct and critical edition of this letter, see Mehew 3, 654.]
To Sidney Colvin [Colvin 1911, 1, p. 287-288]
Monterey [Early October 1879].
My dear Colvin,I received your letter with delight; it was the first word that reached me from the old country. I am in good health now; I have been pretty seedy, for I was exhausted by the journey and anxiety below even my point of keeping up; I am still a little weak, but that is all; I begin to ingrease, it seems already. My book is about half drafted: the Amateur Emigrant, that is. Can you find a better name? I believe it will be more popular than any of my others; the canvas is so much more popular and larger too. Fancy, it is my fourth. That voluminous writer. I was vexed to hear about the last chapter of The Lie, and pleased to hear about the rest; it would have been odd if it had no birthmark, born where and how it was. It should by rights have been called the Devonia, for that is the habit with all children born in a steerage.
I write to you, hoping for more. […] Give me news of all who concern me, near or far, or big or little. Here, sir, in California you have a willing hearer.
Monterey is a place where there is no summer or winter, and pines and sand and distant hills and a bay all filled with real water from the Pacific.You will perceive that no expense has been spared. I now live with a little French doctor; I take one of my meals in a little French restaurant; for the other two, I sponge.
The population of Monterey is about that of a dissenting chapel on a wet Sunday in a strong church neighbourhood. They are mostly Mexican and Indian-mixed. – Ever yours,
