CONCORD -- The New Hampshire residential real estate market ended 2012 with the most unit sales since 2006, the highest sales volume since 2007 and, over the last five months, a trend toward improving median price as well, according to data released this week by the New Hampshire Association of Realtors (NHAR).
The 12,961 sales of single family residential properties was a 21 percent increase over the 10,714 sold in 2011, and the $3.2 billion in total sales volume was also 21 percent higher than that of a year ago.
Median price in 2012, which had been lagging behind that of last year by 6.5 percent after the first four months, ended the year at $202,000, a hair ahead of the $201,700 in 2011.
"Certainly there are a variety of economic factors that will be critical in terms of a sustained housing recovery, but we have reasons to be encouraged," said 2013 NHAR President Bill Weidacher, a 30-year veteran of the real estate industry and a managing broker at Keller Williams Metropolitan Realty in Bedford.
"Rather than the occasional statistical anomaly which we had seen over the past six years, this seems to be a genuine trend based on simple supply and demand principles."
To that end, each month in 2012 saw a substantial increase in unit sales compared to the same month one year prior, including a 38 percent increase in November. Of the last 18 months, 17 have seen an uptick in unit sales.
"When you begin to see that sort of a consistent upward movement in sales, in a healthy market you would expect that to lead to a decrease in inventory and ultimately an increase in price, and that's just what we've seen," Weidacher said. "Even so, we don't want to give the impression that we are expecting dramatic price gains any time soon. "Slow and steady are the watchwords here."
Prices remained below 2011 levels for each of the first seven months in 2012, but that began to turn in August, when the $210,000 median price was equal to that of August a year earlier. September witnessed a 2.3 percent increase, followed by 11.6 percent in October, 9.1 percent in November and 0.3 percent in December, leading to the year-end median price of $202,000.
Locally, each of the 10 New Hampshire counties saw significant unit sales increases in 2012 compared to 2011, ranging from a 17 percent boost in Belknap County to 24 percent in Coos County. The state's largest, Hillsborough County, witnessed a 23 percent gain in unit sales.
Four counties saw increased median sale prices in 2012, four counties saw decreases, and both Carroll and Hillsborough counties remained unchanged from 2011 prices.
In Rockingham County, year to date sales were up 20.7 percent, and the median sale price was $260,000, up 4 percent.
In Strafford County, sales also were up 20.7 percent, but the median price was $180,500, down 2.4 percent.

Over the next five days, the Mountain View Chocolate Factory will offer a series of discounts on products and applications in its Google Play store to celebrate hitting the 25 billion–downloads mark.
"Every day you'll be able to choose from a collection of apps from some of the world's top developers including Gameloft, Electronic Arts, Rovio, runtastic, Full Fat and more. And all for just 25 cents," said Jamie Rosenberg, director of Android digital content.
"We'll also be offering some special collections like 25 movies you must own, 25 banned books, 25 albums that changed the world and our 25 top selling magazines, all at special prices," he said.
Rosenberg then goes on to beat his chest about just what a massive number 25 billion is – equivalent to the number of minutes since humans first entered Europe (although historians still haven't actually sorted that one out quite yet) or twice the distance in miles Voyager 1 has reached beyond Earth, and so on.
But if he was looking for ideas on that front, maybe he should have asked his counterpart at Apple, since Cupertino's App Store hit the 25 billion–downloads mark back in March.
Nevertheless, it's quite an impressive increase for Google Play, the app store formerly known as the Android Market. In March the company said it had had 13 billion downloads, and if current projections bear out, the 50 billion mark should be hit early next year.
Google's apptastic stats show a healthy growth curve
The Play Store now has 675,000 applications and games available, which is within spitting distance of the 700,000 applications Apple claimed earlier this month. Apple does have the edge on media, however, stocking over 26 million songs, 190,000 TV episodes, and over 45,000 films.
Apple also has the edge on tablet applications, it seems. Data released earlier this month shows that only 4.7 per cent of Android apps were downloaded by tablet users, and with Apple still dominating the fondleslab market its percentage is much higher – and Cupertino's injunction against Samsung's tablets can only reinforce this. ®

You're still entitled to free NHS care if you choose to pay for additional private care.
The Department of Health has published guidance for NHS patients who pay for additional private care (PDF, 126kb). The guidance says:
The guidelines state you should receive your private care at a different time and place from your NHS care whenever possible.
This means private care should ideally be provided in a separate building to NHS care or, if an NHS organisation also provides private care:
Occasionally, a patient's doctor may agree they can receive their NHS and private treatment in the same place – for example, if the doctor decides the patient is too ill to be moved.
If you're receiving private and NHS care for the same condition, your NHS and private treatment can be supervised by one healthcare team.
You cannot choose to mix different parts of the same treatment between NHS and private care. For example, you cannot have a cataract operation on the NHS and pay privately for special lens implants that are normally only available as part of private care.
Instead, you either have to have both the operation on the NHS and standard NHS lens implants, or pay for both the operation and implants privately.
You shouldn't need to have any of the same tests twice – for example, to diagnose or monitor your condition. In this case, the test will probably be part of your NHS care and the result will be shared with your private care provider if necessary.
Your doctor will tell you about all the treatments for your condition, including any that are only available privately.
If you want to know whether your doctor can treat you privately, you will need to ask directly. They can then tell you about the private services they offer – for example, cancer medicines or other medicines not funded through the NHS.
Your private healthcare provider will normally treat any non-emergency complications that result from the private part of your care – for example, you might have side effects that need extra treatment.
You'll need to pay for this treatment yourself. However, the NHS should never refuse to treat patients because the cause of the complication is unclear, and should treat any patient in an emergency.

Evidently failure is no longer an option when it comes to Russia's space program. The country's president, Dmitry Medvedev, told reporters this weekend that scientists and engineers behind the Phobos-Grunt mission — the most recent failure in Russia's decades-long streak of unsuccessful interplanetary missions — could face criminal prosecution.
"Recent failures are a strong blow to our competitiveness," explained Medvedev. "It does not mean that something fatal has happened, it means that we need to carry out a detailed review and punish those guilty."
One of the "recent failures" Medvedev is referring to is almost certainly the botched Russian cargo shipment, intended for the International Space Station, that came crashing to Earth minutes after blastoff back in August.
"I am not suggesting putting them up against the wall like under Josef Vissarionovich (Stalin), but seriously punish either financially or, if the fault is obvious, it could be a disciplinary or even criminal punishment," Medvedev continued.
Does Medvedev's reaction sound a little blown out of proportion to anybody else, or are there details about the preparation for the Phobos-Grunt mission that have yet to be made public? Nature news blog speculates that Medvedev's words could be directed toward Lavochkin, the company that built the Phobos-Grunt spacecraft. Is this why Alexander Zakharov, the mission's lead scientist, sounded so quick to pin the mission's failure on the "lack of experience" of the mission's "young people" when the spacecraft failed to chart a course for deep space?

Stephen Berger
March 3, 1936-Oct. 24, 2011
Pleasanton, California
Stephen Isaac Berger March 3, 1936 ? October 24, 2011 Resident of Pleasanton California Steve Berger died at home on Monday, October 24, at age 75. He was born in New York City to parents Abraham and Hilda Berger, their only son. Steve won a scholarship to Julliard School of Music for cello and attended boarding school in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, where he was a soccer player. Steve served in the United States Air Force, stationed in Japan. After his military discharge, he completed his schooling at University of Hawaii. It was there he discovered his passion for flying, earning his pilot?s license. During this time, he supported his new hobby by working as manager in the original Chuck Steak House along with the owner and his wife. During his career, Steve worked for six airlines, most notably Flying Tigers and World Airways for 20 years, where he was Vice-President of Sales and Marketing. It was during his time at Flying Tigers that Steve met the charming flight attendant who would become his wife, Joyce Mohr. The high point of Steve?s World Airways career was when he spent 8 months in Viet Nam, airlifting out U.S. troops. Steve later went on to work for Royal Cruise lines for 10 years, and also for Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. During this period, Steve and Joyce traveled extensively with their two children, Dave and Andrea. Their world-wide travels took them to every continent except Antarctica. He later owned and operated Air Brokerage International a successful leasing and chartering business. For 23 years, Steve volunteered as a reserve office for the Pleasanton Police Department, attaining the rank of captain. He was a familiar sight along parade routes in downtown Pleasanton. During the last year before his illness, Steve volunteered with the California Highway Patrol. He also served on the board of directors for Brookside Country Club in Stockton, where he and Joyce owned several properties. Steve is survived by his wife of 47 years, Joyce, of Pleasanton; his son David Berger, also of Pleasanton; and his daughter and son-in-law, Andrea and Christopher Umdenstock, of Stockton; and his young grandson Haden, whom he cheered on in ice-hockey. Steve also will be missed by many dear friends world-wide. Clutching a phone ? always ? is one of the lasting images of Steve. The telephone was his best friend because he had friends across the globe that he constantly talked to and kept in touch with. Many of them came to visit Steve during the final months of his illness. Steve was ?Mr. Energy,? constantly talking, doing, and moving, even when illness would have kept anyone else bed-ridden . Steve also was a constant shopper and the ultimate negotiator for good deals. He was still shopping online two weeks prior to his death, and the month before purchased a new car in Los Angeles. Steve embraced technology, mastering all the latest forms of communication, including e-mail, Facebook, Skype, and cell phones. The latest iPad was one of the last ?toys? he purchased in person. He enjoyed sharing these skills with others, particularly his more elderly friends, and was willing and able to do computer repairs for them. Travel to Hawaii was one of Steve?s pleasures in recent years. The family treasures memories of the last trip when all three generations were together there. A reception in celebration of Steve?s life will be planned for a later date. Those who wish to make memorial contributions in Steve?s name are encouraged to direct their gifts to Tri-Valley Animal Rescue ? the source of five of the family?s pet dogs. Donations may be made via the organization?s website ? www.tvar.org ? or via Post Office Box 11143, Pleasanton, CA 94588.

[From a vendor, rather than a buyer]
I'm delighted that you are happy with the badge and I hope you can sell it to someone who will value owning it.
I tried to sell it on eBay but they won't accept Nazi items. I then contacted several dealers via a Google search who mostly offered me £40-£50 after some haggling. Most of the other dealers tried to conceal its true value in their replies and also lacked manners which doesn't inspire confidence.
Ultimately it's about trust. I should think that most prospective sellers have done their own research and therefore know roughly what their item is worth. You were the only dealer who had the integrity to concede that my valuation was approximately correct and I respect your comment that you can't offer this as you need to make a profit. Your honest approach is greatly appreciated and I felt comfortable taking the risk in sending it to you.
Thank you for a smooth transaction
This is to confirm receipt of the item and I am very pleased with it.

In Namibia, I visited a foundation with their ear to the ground on the latest technological developments in conservation. From cyber-stalking their GPS collared cheetah via Google Earth and Sirtrack to scanning footprints (spoor) into an analytical database, N/a'an ku sê Foundation is combining new tech with on-the-ground analogue (so to speak) work in the field.
Namibia is home to world's largest population of wild cheetah, thanks to the hard work of a number of highly motivated conservation orgs. I'm 40km outside the capitol city of Windhoek to visit N/a'an ku sê (San Bushman meaning "God watches over us."), an organization with a unique business model and a string of successful wildlife relocations.
A luxury lodge with a mission, founders Marlice and Rudie van Vuuren's vision for N/a'an ku sê is one where eco-tourism and investment directly benefits established conservation initiatives that work for the support of the San Bushman people and the healthy future of Namibia's wildlife. They donate profits back into their conservation projects, community clinics and Clever Cubs school.
My visit is centered on their Carnivore Conservation Research Programme. Researcher and Big Cats Initiative Grantee, Florian Weise, and I sit down for a chat about the issues and misunderstandings facing conservation today. N/a'an ku sê has a number of captive cheetah, some that will be relocated, others than cannot return to a life in the wild. Florian says there are four common avenues that cheetah come into captivity in Namibia:
a) discarded pets
b) indiscriminate captures – when a farmer sets traps to capture anything that they perceive as a threat to livestock.
c) proven livestock raiders – documented cases in which specific cats are known to be preying on livestock.
d) orphans/injured animals
When it comes to proven livestock raiders, N/a'an ku sê is in the final experimental stages in preparation for field-use employing new technology called FIT (Footprint Identification Technology) to ensure farmers capture the real culprits instead of an indiscriminate capture. What this innovative tech achieves is an ability the San people have honed for thousands of years, the distinction of individual footprints as identification techniques in searching for specific animals.
I had the lucky opportunity to see this in action as researchers Florian and Stuart literally herded three resident cheetah across a bed of earth to download their footprints into the database. What they've discovered is the software's remarkable ability to not only differentiate specific cheetah, but how they are related within a family tree. There is a huge potential to better study the cheetah in its natural bush habitat through tracking rather than continuing to rely solely on capture, collaring and GPS monitoring.
How this is applied in the field right now is a collaborative effort with the help of San Bushman trackers. The research team is capable of capturing a cheetah and identifying whether or not it is the correct cat. The San Bushmen can target individual animals based on footprint (spoor). When a neighboring farm had a major issue with predation, N/a'an ku sê was brought in to help. The team set traps and captured one cheetah, but when the trackers analyzed the spoor they realized this cat was not the guilty party and set it free again. Traps reset, the livestock killers were caught, and upon removal from the farm, losses went down by over 80% proving without a doubt the correct cheetah were caught. The original cheetah mistaken was not the problem nor did it become one, proof that indiscriminate capture is not a solution to livestock predation.
While on the road with N/a'an ku sê researcher Stuart Munro, I met one of these livestock killers in his new home at Solitaire Guest Farm, a four hour's drive south of N/a'an ku sê. A giant of a cheetah, the aptly named Spartacus jumped out from beneath his shady tree, spat, stamped his feet and gave us the eye. This is a cheetah's natural "back off" response and he did not attack. Instead he returned to his shady spot to relax and wait for us to leave him to his day, which basically involved relaxing. While he will not be fully released in the wild because of his penchant for killing cows, his story is one of success. Spartacus is now an ambassador for the species.
Adding to the fantastic geekery of FIT, monitoring released cats is an enormous physical undertaking but new tech is taking some of the sweat out of the work. Satellite tracking collars are far more expensive than the VHF-only style, but findings from the GPS collars of N/a'an ku sê's released cheetah and leopard have proven wrong many existing assumptions about home ranges. For instance, one male cheetah went on a walkabout of over 1100km in six months, once entirely through the Namib desert and back. The team has discovered that cheetahs will cross mountains and desert, not just sticking to known farmland bush. Sitting at the computer in N/a'an ku sê's office and watching the Google Earth map zoom in from space all the way down to Namibia, down to a dot and a line, is exhilarating and surreal. That dot is the cheetah, living its life, the line being the path it took since its last signal. And here us humans sit, cyber-stalking a wild animal.
Coming up, an experience of a lifetime, tracking the cheetah on foot across the oldest desert on earth.

If these words appear to be written by someone in peak physical condition, it's only because we just put a new elliptical machine in our basement, and the effects are starting to kick in. I haven't actually used it yet, but with the amount of money my wife Kara just spent on this machine, I'm already feeling the burn.
Actually, it's kind of nice knowing that the machine is down there. Just being in proximity to exercise equipment makes you feel like you're in better shape. It's a similar theory to how just smelling doughnuts makes people fatter, because then they eat them.
As Kara has noted several times, we're going to save money on this deal. She just quit the gym, so with no more monthly membership fees, we'll break even on this purchase sometime around the Tuesday before the sun burns itself out.
You might notice that I only mentioned Kara quitting the gym. I tried to quit, too, but we ran into some murky issues when it became apparent that I'd never been there before. The gym is a place I've avoided ever since teachers stopped making me go there, in part because it's a fundamentally dishonest place, designed to fool your body into thinking it needs more muscles than it actually does, and in part because of all the oddly unashamed naked people wandering around.
"This lady was just standing there naked," Kara reported after a recent visit to the locker room. "Like, not to get changed. She was just chatting and hanging out naked as if she had clothes on."
In my limited gym experience, it seems that one's proclivity for walking around naked is directly proportional to how many years a person has under his/her nonexistent belt. I'm not sure if this is a generational phenomenon, perhaps inspired by gym classes of yesteryear in which kids were comfortable showering and changing in front of each other, or if you get to a certain point in life when you think, "You know what? I'm going to wander around for a while naked before I put my pants on."
When you go to the gym, you're telling your body that you need more muscle to perform your daily activities. But if that were true, wouldn't you have those muscles already? The cavemen who needed to catch animals ran faster because they were chasing animals all day. And animals can really run. The cavemen who needed to carry rocks got stronger from lugging the rocks around. The ones who developed caveman software got flabby, just like our computer engineers in Silicon Valley. (It's called Silicon Valley because so many couch potatoes who work there need silicon enhancement to make themselves look as if they actually use their muscles.)
So Kara and I have called another piece of exercise equipment into being. I'm not saying we won't get our use out of it, but the vast majority of these dust-collecting basement-dwellers are born of hope, only to die of neglect. Perhaps the lone exception is my dad's old exercise bike, which was purchased in 1971 with three pinto beans and an extra scratchy burlap sack, and which he still rides several times per week. That thing has more miles on it than Air Force One.
We might as well decide we like having the machine in our basement, since it's four inches wider than the only exit door. I'm pretty sure the delivery guys welded it together down there, creating our very own ship in a bottle. People may come and go from this house, but that machine isn't going anywhere without a long visit from a blowtorch and a hacksaw. Hopefully, when we stop using it for exercise in a few months, it'll make a nice drying rack. And I can always use the cup holder in front for my chocolate shakes.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., March 18 (UPI) -- YouTube and Viacom have reached a settlement over a 7 year battle; Viacom alleged that YouTube facilitated the posting of copyrighted material on its site.
The terms of the out-of-court settlement have not been disclosed but it brings to an end a legal battle that started in 2007. Viacom sued YouTube for $1 billion in 2007, claiming that its shows, such as The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, South Park and SpongeBob SquarePants, had been uploaded on the site and viewed thousands of times.
"This settlement reflects the growing collaborative dialogue between our two companies on important opportunities, and we look forward to working more closely together," the two companies said in a joint statement.
For its part, YouTube said that it had compiled with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which states that a host site, such as Youtube, was not responsible for content uploaded by its users, and acted when asked to remove such content by the copyright holder.
After the copyright case was filed in 2007, a court found Youtube not guilty of any wrongdoing in 2010, saying that YouTube had followed the law and been compliant. Viacom then wasted no time in filing an appeal and the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in the company's favor. That led to the case being reopened for the next two years.
The two companies traded allegations over the the duration of the legal battle. Google, YouTube's parent company cliamed in 2010 that Viacom had secretly uploaded the content in question, even though it was complaining about the presence of such content on Youtube. Viacom denied the charges and said YouTube was hiding behind a "willful blindness policy."

Good night, sleep tight and don't let the bed bugs bite. Just an old saying right? Apparently not. Walter Penny with Colorado Bed Bug says, "A bed bug is a wingless insect that basically feeds on human blood."
Penny says, "The short rule of thumb is any place people rest or sleep that could be a harboring place for bed bugs."
Enter a dog named Macaroni, Mac is trained to sniff out bed bugs.
"It's an impressive nose," says Penny.
The salvation army gets dozens of mattress donated to them.
We chose one for a test run with Macaroni. After a few passes around the bed Mac's nose says it all. Penny says, "Say this was a room I would say its alert free." That means this bed is bug free but we still needed to test Mac's nose.
Penny produced two vials. "I've got some (bed bugs), we are gonna put them in the corner of the bed and then see if we can get him to alert on that." And the search begins again. "Show me, show me, show me Mac, good boy.... What Mac was showing us is a vial of bed bugs."
Macaroni quickly found the hidden vial of bugs.
Penny says, "Unfortunately just cause they are called bed bugs that doesn't mean they are always going to be in the bed." Bed bugs can be found in couches, curtains and even head boards and are often brought home after a vacation or trip. "Don't put your luggage next to you near the bed or night stand," says Penny.
And don't worry the Salvation Army treats all their mattresses for bed bugs before they are sold, leaving Macaroni to sniff out the rest and letting you sleep soft and sound.

In less than two weeks, Jon Jones will put his UFC light heavyweight title on the line for the fourth time when he meets former Strikeforce and PRIDE champion Dan Henderson.
UFC officials recently released a new extended video preview of the UFC 151 main event between the 25-year-old Jones (16-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC) and Henderson (29-8 MMA, 6-2 UFC), who turns 42 later this week.
The eight-minute video details their war of words leading up to UFC 151 – which is less intense than Jones' most recent title defense, a win over former friend and training partner Rashad Evans at UFC 145, but that has nonetheless gained traction in recent weeks.
UFC 151 takes place Sept. 1 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas
Jones won the 205-pound title against Mauricio "Shogun" Rua at UFC 128 in March 2011. Since then, he has defended the belt against Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at UFC 135, Lyoto Machida at UFC 140 and Evans this past April. His lone loss was a disqualification for illegal elbow strikes against Matt Hamill in a fight he was dominating.
Henderson won Strikeforce's light heavyweight title in March 2011. After a win over Fedor Emelianenko at heavyweight in July 2011, he vacated his title to re-sign with the UFC. In November, he beat Rua by unanimous decision in what most considered 2011's "Fight of the Year." But Jones is as much as a 7-to-1 favorite in the fight.
The preview video also focuses on the co-main event welterweight rematch between Jake Ellenberger (27-6 MMA, 6-2 UFC) and Jay Hieron (23-5 MMA, 0-2 UFC). Just over six years ago, Hieron handed Ellenberger the first lost of his career. Hieron has not fought in the UFC in nearly seven years, but has won 11 of his past 12 fights.
The full UFC 151 lineup includes:
MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view, 10 p.m. ET)
- Champ Jon Jones vs. Dan Henderson (for light-heavyweight title)
- Jake Ellenberger vs. Jay Hieron
- Dennis Siver vs. Eddie Yagin
- Dennis Hallman vs. Thiago Tavares
- John Lineker vs. Yasuhiro Urushitani
PRELIMINARY CARD (FX, 8 p.m. ET)
- Danny Castillo vs. Michael Johnson
- Jeff Hougland vs. Takeya Mizugaki
- Tim Means vs. Abel Trujillo
- Daron Cruickshank vs. Henry Martinez
PRELIMINARY CARD (Facebook, 7 p.m. ET)
- Shane Roller vs. Jacob Volkmann
- Charlie Brenneman vs. Kyle Noke

Check this out from Youtube. Jennings had a brief cameo on the show Criminal Minds.
My unofficial review: he seems to have more acting presence than the other actors on that show. Not sure what that says really but having seen his Fox 6 Milwaukee segment where he interviews other athletes (like Shaq) a few times, his quality acting isn't too surprising to me. He has a good presence.

According to EPA's National Air Toxics Assessment, Oregon has the third largest population at risk of excess cancer due to air pollution behind only California & New York. Across Oregon, 117 schools fall in the worst 10% nationally for exposure to industrial pollution.
Oregon Has Toxic Air Pollution
Our Children's Health at Risk
Over 300,000 adult Oregonians and 83,000 children have asthma, putting Oregon in the top five states with the highest percentage of adults (10%) with asthma. Today's air quality standards do not reflect what science proved long ago to be safe for public health.
Our Toxics Regulation is Ineffective
The Clean Air Act only provides limits for 6 pollutants in the air we breathe. Neither US EPA or Oregon DEQ provide enforceable limits for the ambient concentration of the 187 Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs). Studies have shown the concentration of some of these HAPs in the Portland Metro area is over 100 times health reference levels.

The story of the origins of Saint Kilda Brew is not new or unique. Two mates, Troy and Jamie, were sitting around watching the footy grand final between the Saints and the Cats and drinking beer when they decided they wanted to make their own beer. Here is where the story steers away from the usual script, where that idea never happens and everyone goes back to their normal lives. Instead, Troy and Jamie have actually turned that idea into reality. They describe themselves as "beerologist", which means that they don't make their own beers, but instead mix various types of beers to create their unique Saint Kilda blend. The Saint Kilda brew is actually a Belgian Blonde with added hops. Their current selling locations are obviously in Saint Kilda, or as Jamie says, anywhere within walking distance of their houses. I personally thought the beer was very good. It was a very easy drinking beer and has a nice hint of hops in it. You can try it for yourself at one of 70 venues around the St Kilda area. You can also buy a carton by ringing the boys on the number off their website.
Onto the food from that night, we started with a nice Antipasto platter. I really liked all the items on the plate. The chorizo were very good, fried polenta croquettes really nice and I loved the cheese that was served with the quince paste.
For the pork belly dish, a large piece of belly was served on a smooth mash and mushrooms. I really liked this dish and the skin, which is crucial for me, was super crispy.
Finally, I loved this billboard of Ciderman, the offshoot apple cider creation from the Saint Kilda Brew guys. The cider is made from pink lady apples and it's really crisp and beautiful, without the sickly sweet taste of some commercial ciders.
I had a great time at the event, met some great people, learned some things about beer and cider making, ate some good food and drank some good beer. Thanks to Troy & Jamie for giving up their time and talking to me, and thanks to the team at Veludo for the great food.
I dined and drank courtesy of Saint Kilda Brew and Veludo.

WELCOME to the Wednesday blog – each week filled by Angler's Mail magazine's HQ, focussing on happenings in the wonderful world of fishing, including latest tackle. This week's Angler's Mail HQ blog is by editor Tim Knight.
We hope you enjoy the blog, and share it with friends on Facebook and Twitter by clicking icons above, or simply by telling people! Feel free also to comment by using the special space at the bottom on this page.
GOING round the trade shows this September, with more to come in October, has been an eye-opening experience. But it's also making me occasionally pause to ponder: so what IS the right tackle for the job.
Accepted rules on rod construction, for example, get re-questioned and re-explained by creators of the exciting new products you see in Angler's Mail.
Like technology, iPhones for example, nothing stands still. The inventors are not just looking to maximize their margins, they're genuinely seeking ways to turn on purchasers to improve market share. This is a competitive commercial world, where those that don't keeping driving on, even with a marketing leading product, are likely to get overtaken.
Back to rods, many rod developers themselves rarely fish with the same "favourite" rod for long. Before what's shown now is even available for you to buy, they're already playing with new models.
It has to be that way. They're not so time-rich that they can fish with what they know and love, they have to use what's on the way to spot its flaws and make improvements.
How does all this affect you? One word: choice!
Never have we had so many different rods able to do so many different angling tasks available. When I was growing up, if you wanted a tench rod, a stalking rod, or a short wand, you had it made by a rod builder associated with a shop. Blanks could be sourced, or modified, by a skilled craftsman. You could try doing it yourself, and articles explained just how "easy" it was.
Hmm…. "easy". Today's technically created rods, such as huge array of Shimano Tribal carp rods in the latest Angler's Mail magazine, are as close to high quality craftsman-built custom rods as you could wish for. A rod for every job – even down to some models offering a choice of 30, 40 or 50mm butt rings.
At the value end of the coarse (and indeed sea) market, a rejuvenated Shakespeare have put a lot of thought into their two forthcoming series. They've even brought back the classic 1980s Sigma Wand. Carp guru Kevin Nash has given a sneak preview of his short carp rods, with telescopic butts. And I expect more niches have been explored ready for a trade-only showing very soon.
Fewer and fewer carp anglers stick, for long, with a pair of rods to do it all. More and more carp fans have their matching set of three, a tool for spodding and marker rod too, not forgetting something a bit lighter and more tippy for floater fishing. Oh, hang on, a stalker rod. What about those trips to France – are my rods "man enough" for Euro whackers?
It's like when matchmen needed two hours to set up on big river matches to thread up and rig all the rods, never mind poles and whips. Today's ready-rod sleeves and cases make their job a lot quicker, just as their have for pleasure anglers and specialist anglers.
Choice. It is a short word for a big issue. Even if you only own one rod, you can have too much choice on how to use it. And this is why I see too many anglers not knowing what to use, or when.
The rules of choice are what you make them. Some of the best anglers are the most direct in their approach. You could say they gamble on what they think will work, working. They understand what to use, when to use it, for sure but they don't dabble and change, tying themselves up in knots.
I think by not taking much gear, they fish with confidence and focus. They're also – matchmen excluded here – able to up sticks and move to where the fish are if they need to. Better to have an hour in the right spot than a month in the wrong one… even if you do have all the gear.
Short well-timed sessions
INSIDE the trade, pressure to produce and dabble in other aspects of keeping your brand at the forefront, mean actual fishing time is surprisingly scarce. On the plus side, most trade men I meet these are proper anglers still, and haven't got sucked into playing golf to unwind!
Every autumn I meet weary trade men desperate to get to the bank. You'd think just working and talking in the business is a good enough fix. It isn't. Nothing beats being there.
My time's limited, and I was feeling guilty for letting a soaking Sunday stopping me going out. You know the feeling… opening the curtains to it tipping down, temperatures dropping and wind increasing, with no prospect of a let up. Suddenly chores, maybe winning a few brownie points indoors, seem like a better prospect.
Fortunately I had a Tuesday trade show locally that enabled a couple of hours daylight fishing on the bank – harder now lighting up time is getting so early. This is prime time to fish, as Steve Collett stressed yesterday in his excellent Angler's Mail online blog.
Ok, I didn't bag up, I only had four fish, but quality ones.
Two gorgeous double-figure common carp, one an
incredibly lively ghost – somehow foul-hooked in its dorsal fin – and two lumpy perch to 2 lb 6 oz.
Tactics? One short float rod alternating left and right margin, lightly shotted pole float, and about 50p of bait – about half a pint of small halibut pellets, and a few "basics" prawns – chopped to feed and whole on a hook.
Simple, effective, fun. Yes the rod had some grunt down the middle to control the carp. Yes the clutch of the reel did the work perfectly. But would I have caught more with more rods and reels, chopping and changing tactics?
I'll never know, but I doubt it. The important thing was it made me happy, and that's all that matters.
Prices – oh how we wish what we like to buy would get cheaper, but three years ago the tackle trade was terrified that tackle prices would soar due to rises in raw materials. Then bait prices were also to hike due to ingredients going up. What we've seen for 2012/13 thus far is not at all scary, thankfully. Expect stability, and quality maintained – or improved. Dynamite, as seen in mag, have reduced their bait prices, and well done for doing so.
Hooks – overlooked but vitally important, we've seen some top notch newcomers already in 2012 from various manufacturers – including the big three Ks: Korum, Kamasan, Korda. Expect things from ACE and Terry Hearn big carp hooks, as our mag exclusively reveals.
Lyreen Angling Centre – the Irish carp record venue stepped out of the shadows in our magazine. Not everyone will be happy that 40 lb plus fish live in Ireland, but the nation's new champion has like others grown on there, legally, and will provide offspring for generations to enjoy.
Floods – ok, some rivers were running a bit slower and clearer after, finally a dry spell, but it's no fun when your favourite river is suddenly in fields, roads and peoples houses. Certainly not in September.
Smartphone addiction – those brilliant but annoying pocket communications hubs that sadly prove too addictive. Many anglers now dip in and out of them to check work emails when fishing. Not right, is it? Didn't we all used to go fishing to escape work?
A couple of gems for you here this week – one home made and one super slick. Many, many more quality and fun vids are now in our new TV player (top right on this page).
We start, appropriately with "pike season" about to open, with the most amazing DIY pike video ever. Made in 2009, it was brought to the attention of masses via our friends at Savage Gear. One pike eats another whilst Phil Blakey plays it!
MAP are about to launch a wave of poles, as promoted online with this trailer video. We'll bring you the full story in our magazine.

How to Overcome Social Anxiety
How to Overcome Social Anxiety
Social Anxiety
How to Overcome Social Anxiety
This was a big problem for me. It tended to come and go during the period I suffered from panic attacks and anxiety. I would find I had my good days and bad days.
I can assure you there are techniques that can help you overcome this, and can be done inconspicuously at work or in public situations. For example undertaking deep breathing, challenging your symptoms, doing maths problems in your head, chat with a co-worker, eating a apple, take a break, sing along to your favourite song, etc.
The key to changing your fearful perception of social situations can be found in my eBook. The main problem is that you fear the situations before you even enter them. This is often known as anticipation anxiety. True change lies in the fact that you can alter your perception of these situations- which I can assure you that you can.
Before hand I would certainly stack the cards in your favour by doing everything you can to make sure your mind and body is stable before you enter a situation where you might be anxious. You may be aware that what eat and drink has a marked impact on how your body functions. So what you need to do is eat healthy, nutritious food to stabilize your body. If you enter a social situation after a long day at work after skipping lunch you are asking for trouble. Similarly if you have 4 cups of strong coffee before hand, this could induce panic like symptoms.
Exercise can also help. After work I like to go down the gym, go for a jog or walk my dog. This has the benefit of producing the feel good chemicals and burning off the panic inducing chemicals which may have built up during the day. It also makes you feel hungry afterwards, which is great if you're sitting down for a meal with friends.
If your not practising relaxation then your missing a valuable tool that can help you. We all have to deal with difficult customers and awkward situations. If you can stay calm and focus on the matter in hand it can make such a difference. Relaxation is not something you can just turn on when you need it. It requires practice when your really calm. The last thing before you go to bed at night is quite a good time. Once you mastered the technique of relaxation and controlling your breathing you can practice it for 5-10 mins every few hours. It's important that you 'check in' on your panic levels especially when they are at lower levels, because its easier to control at lower levels. The higher the levels your anxieties are, the more difficult it is to bring it under control, especially without people noticing! Without challenging anxiety it can sometimes reach panic levels which will be much harder to calm your self down and you are reinforcing your body's flight or fight response.
Go in with the correct attitude. If you have a social engagement and you have already decided that you are not looking forward to it, then you are not likely to have a good time. Be positive and actively go to enjoy yourself. A good tool to have is when you sit and relax is to imagine the social situation. For example if somebody is leaving work and your going for after work drinks to say goodbye, image what you are going to say to that person. Think of how they have helped you at work and how grateful you are to have known them. If nothing else it will save you having to think of something on the spur of the moment.
First aid for social situations
If you're experiencing the first sensations of a panic attack do not speak negatively to yourself. Those 'what if' questions like – What if a make a fool of myself, What if I collapse when I feel faint, etc are not helpful. Fully accept the feelings and stand your ground. Remind yourself they are completely harmless and its your mind playing tricks on you. If the feeling are really intense then take a break and go and splash water on your face in the toilet. If helpful jog on the spot in the toilet cubicle and wave you arms about. Its what your body wants to do – burn energy.
When you in a situation one of the key elements is to distract yourself.
- Count back from one hundred.
- Think about your favourite holiday and what you did. Image walking along the beach with the sand in-between your toes. Image the smell of the sea as you walk along the beach. The more vivid the distraction the better.
- Think of stroking your favourite pet. What does it look like?
- Humm your favourite song
- The ways you can distract yourself are endless...........
|'Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.' – Brian Adams
It's always best to gain confidence slowly by building up your self-esteem when you have to deal with low-level social situations. Once this is mastered build up to much more demanding things. Think about how these concepts apply to you and how you can apply them into your daily life. We are all unique and you may fine certain tools work best for you than others.
Some people often say that there anxious thoughts get worse rather than better when they try to challenge them. This is perfectly normal and the road to recovery is not a race. Some days will be good some will be bad. Remember your thoughts are habitual and its going to take time to change them. If you find today you are losing the battle just accept this and try and stay as calm and relaxed possible. The thoughts will not last forever. If you can write the anxious thoughts down and challenge them when you are more calm, this will help. Remember its you that has created these thoughts and you have the complete power to change them.
Persevere, and I promise you will see change. THE POWER IS WITHIN YOU TO RECLAIM YOUR LIFE BACK.
|"The fears that assault us are mostly simple anxieties about social skills, about intimacy, about likeableness, or about performance. We need not give emotional food or charge to these fears or become attached to them. We don't even have to shame ourselves for having these fears. Simply ask your fears, "What are you trying to teach me?" Some say that FEAR is merely an acronym for "False Evidence Appearing Real." Richard Rohr

As some of you have already noticed (and THANK YOU for the orders!!), I have decided to offer my super blister magic Foot Potion to you for sale. By clicking on the picture of the Foot Potion on the side bar you will be directed to my Foot Potion/Coaching page.
I swear, blisters have been the bane of my running! They are the only injury - if you call a blister an injury - I have had. They can be debilitating, especially when you are trying to finish a race that you have been training for and a stupid batch of 110 blisters .. or a few ..pop up. It can be the end of the race. Sad, but true.
Once I began mixing up this Foot Potion I no longer had blisters. Amazing. It's white and thick, just like a silicone glove. I use it for chafing on my bra line and other areas, I sometimes spread it upon my feet at night and cover with a light sock while I sleep. It makes my feet nice and healthy :)
Please note: All orders that are confirmed AFTER 5 AM Saturday, August 9 will be shipped upon my return from Leadville on August 18.
Coaching classes: please contact me via email at email@example.com for availability of all classes and online training as well as any questions you may have. I am offering two in person classes in the fall and I may add another beginning woman's class as it fills quickly.
I am currently studying for the NSCA-CPT so I will have credibility in offering training for strength and conditioning as well. Thank you to my Beginning Woman's Run Group clients for inspiring me to go after the certification.

Characterised by high temperatures combined with poor inlet conditions, the mixing process requires extremely robust pumps that can hold their ground. Grundfos' unique stainless steel brewhouse pump is capable of doing just that – and of handling the wearing solids contained in the mixture. The result of this carefully constructed end-suction pump is efficient fluid transportation in highly demanding environments and a long product life.
Once the brew reaches the tank farms hygiene becomes an increasingly important factor. Grundfos' sanitary end-suction pumps are ideal for the critical fermentation process where the ingress of external bacteria particles must be avoided at all costs. The unique hygienic design offers a surface completely free of seams and edges to ensure that no bacteria particles can accumulate in the pump.
Equally important, all Grundfos' sanitary pumps are CIP-compatible, offering easy and efficient cleaning of tanks, pipes and process lines without dismantling the equipment. This allows you to optimise batch operation and reduce the consequent downtime to an absolute minimum.
|Maximum hygiene is essential in breweries where external bacteria must be avoided at all costs.
|All Grundfos' sanitary pumps are CIP-compatible, allowing tanks, pipes and process lines to be efficiently cleaned without having to dismantle the equipment. Precise dosing pumps speed up the CIP-process by adding only the necessary detergent, consequently reducing the flushing of the system. Every CIP-system is followed by a self-priming pump, that removes every last drop of detergent in tanks and pipes.
Important notes
- All Grundfos' sanitary pumps carry the EHEDG certificate.
- Choose SiC/SiC mechanical seals if oxidizing disinfection agents liberate bacteria.

I am working with particle effects I am adding to a reaper mesh I am deriving.
I have the shape and particles already basically doing what I want, but when they hit the top of the sink, they just pop off and back to the bottom which is not really giving the effect I would like.
I have seen some particle effects do a sort of fade out how I want to do it, but I can not figure it out how. I spent a lot of time looking for answers and heard hints of some sort of alpha fade out. I tried messing in create mode thinking it would be similar to the killold command, but as the debug is, it has to be exact or nothing.
I do not need a total walk through or anything, but does anyone know how to do it?

Air filters remove airborne allergens and pollutants such as dust, mold, pollen, pet dander and bacteria from your indoor air. There is a vast array of air filters with different levels of measurement for determining the concentration of different particle sizes, usually by weight or count. This measurement of performance for air filters is called Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (or a MERV rating). MERV ratings come from ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 52.2: Method of Testing General Ventilation Air Cleaning Devices for Removal Efficiency by Particle Size.
ANSI, the American National Standards Institute, accredits and ensures that the characteristics and performance of products are consistent with terms, definitions and testing of products. ASHRAE, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, develops standards for its members and other professionals involved with refrigeration processes and the maintenance and design of indoor environments.
A MERV rating is based on three composite, average removal efficiency points for particles. Categories range from 1 (very low) to 16 (very high). The higher the rating, the more efficient your air filter will help to reduce indoor airborne allergens, pollutants and contaminants.
MERV 1 to 4 filters provides minimal filtration. These filters have to be replaced quite frequently and are typically disposable fiberglass or synthetic panel filters within a cardboard frame. These filters capture up to 80% of airborne particles as small as 10 microns. MERV 5 to 8 filters are good for capturing dust and mold spores. These filters have to be replaced, depending on usage, every 3 months. MERV 8 replacement air filters will reduce pollen, pet dander, dust and other contaminants as small as 3.0 microns.
MERV 9 to 12 furnace air filters capture up to 95% of airborne particles and contaminants like pollen, dust mites and mold spores, as small as 1.0 microns. These filters come in a deep pleated, boxed media or bag filters, which are some of the most efficient filters used in homes and commercial buildings.
MERV 13 to 16 air filters will trap up to 98% of airborne allergens and pollutants such as bacteria, tobacco smoke, cooking oil and droplet nuclei, as small as 0.3 microns. Filtration should be applied to process both return and outside air that is delivered as supply air. Finding the best-rated air filter for your particular need or application will help to keep your air clean and fresh. Don't forget to change your air filter as recommended and especially when you change your clocks to Standard Time or Daylight Savings Time.

OCLC Linked Data
OCLC has been working with Linked Data for several years. As can be seen from the publishing of the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC), the Virtual International Authorities File (VIAF) and Faceted Application of Subject Terminology (FAST) as linked data. The release of experimental WorldCat Linked Data in June 2012 was another milestone in the exposure of WorldCat.org bibliographic metadata as linked data.
The OCLC linked data strategy is an evolving mix of Linked Open Data (LOD) and Linked Enterprise Data (LED). This means that we will have incremental releases of new data and services, as we better understand how to model and publish the information.
The next step on this evolutionary journey into linked data is the production release of WorldCat Works; the first entity in a series of WorldCat linked data releases.
WorldCat Linked Data
The bibliographic metadata found in WorldCat contains a rich set of objects that can be represented in linked data. Extracting entities like works, persons, and places from that metadata will create a foundation of WorldCat linked data, which will support the introduction of Web services that offer a range of functionality and access to the data.
The Schema.org ontology, extended by other ontologies as needed, is being used as a basis for modeling WorldCat bibliographic data. This provides fullest coverage, improved functionality, and better consumption of this data for our harvest partners and library members looking to do more with structured data exposed within HTML pages (via RDFa 1.1). More detailed information about the vocabulary used by WorldCat.org linked data is available.
Using the Data
WorldCat linked open data provides access to WorldCat published using Linked Data Principles and made available through both machine and human-readable data interfaces. Although it is expected that the true use of this data will be by software applications and other linked data aggregations, we also believe it is important for humans to be able to see the data in an easy-to-understand way. Thus, we are providing a view to the data through a Linked Data Explorer interface.
OCLC identifiers, and Linked Data URIs, are always in the public domain. Independent of the data and/or information content (which may be subject to individual licensing terms open or otherwise) that they identify, or link to, OCLC identifiers (e.g. OCLC Numbers, VIAF IDs, or WorldCat Work URIs) can be treated as if they are in the public domain and can be included in any data exposure mechanism or activity as public domain data
Over the next several months, OCLC's other core entities will become available as linked open data. We'll document our progress on the WorldCat Entities page. Watch for announcements and additional documentation on tutorials, examples and solution guides.

I am trying to rotate a buffered image.
the problem is that my image is a rectangular image, like 60x40 px.
and the rotation work to square images.
here is my code
private BufferedImage rotate(BufferedImage bufferedImage, double radians) {
AffineTransform at = new AffineTransform();
at.rotate(radians, bufferedImage.getWidth() / 2, bufferedImage.getHeight() / 2);
AffineTransformOp ato = new AffineTransformOp(at, AffineTransformOp.TYPE_BILINEAR);
return ato.filter(bufferedImage, null);
rotatedImage = rotate(bufferedImage, 2);
this.setSize(rotatedImage.getWidth(), rotatedImage.getHeight());
this.setIcon(new ImageIcon(rotatedImage));
I dont know how to fix this.
Thanks for help.

Fat fringes on the F blog
So exotic and American aesthetically pretty.
I really love this, the people, the conversations, the atmosphere, the music. The smell of summer and a cool breeze from the side window in my car, "this Charming Man" in the air.
When I started this project I became almost obsessed by the culture. Any event or happening, I had to attend. It was simply like therapy, not at all related to my everyday life. My ambition was to portray the orthodox people, their commitment, but above all the strong fellowship it brings. I was not interested in cars then, nor the music. All that later grew on me, big time.
This is not a culture without membership, and to the people not engaged. I respectfully say, "I have always been on a tourist visa, not permanent". But however, it took me for a nice ride. /.../
2002. Pictures where shown in the documentary, "Brylcreme & Blysläde" at Swedish television. From Daniel Sahlberg's initial venture into the Rockabilly scene. Additional to this was a portrait on front cover of, "Dagens Nyheter" the biggest newspaper of Sweden.
2003. An editorial reportage with 12 pages in the European magazine, "Bon" pictures from Hemsby in England.
2004. The first exhibition, "Rebels One" at the Advertising Agency Otto Proximity Sthlm. Presented in 8 b&w portraits. Some pictures were also printed this year in the Norwegian magazine "Carls Cars".
2005. The final exhibition, "Rockabilly Rebels" at House of Culture Sthlm. Presented in 16 portraits and additional still-picture movie named, c8h18.
2006. Reportage in the American/Scandinavian magazine, "Nordic Reach". This year was also the release, "Rockabilly - the last romantics" a journalistic book about the subculture and Daniel Sahlberg's photographs on the front and back (Atlas Publishing).
2007. Art Show, "the shape of things to come" at Galleri Jonas Kleerup in Stockholm. Two pictures of cars where presented in this exhibition of various photographers.

- 1 12-ounce container grape or cherry tomatoes, quartered lengthwise
- 2 celery stalks, finely diced
- 1/2 cup chopped Vidalia or Maui onion
- 5 large green olives, pitted, thinly sliced (about 2 tablespoons)
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh oregano plus sprigs for garnish
- 1 tablespoon drained capers, rinsed
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- Pinch of dried crushed red pepper
- 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil plus additional for brushing
- 1 large eggplant (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds), trimmed
Recipe Preparation
Mix tomatoes, celery, onion, olives, chopped oregano, capers, garlic, and crushed red pepper in medium bowl. Whisk red wine vinegar and 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil in small bowl; pour over tomato mixture and toss to coat. Season caponata to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD Caponata can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Peel eggplant lengthwise to create alternating 2-inch-wide intervals of peeled and unpeeled skin. Cut eggplant crosswise into 6 slices, each about 1 inch thick. Brush eggplant slices with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill eggplant slices until slightly charred and very tender when pierced with knife, about 8 minutes per side.
Place 1 grilled eggplant slice on each of 6 plates. Spoon caponata over, garnish with oregano sprigs, and serve warm or at room temperature.
