What do you think of Sen. McCain's proposal to allow cable TV channels to be sold a la carte (individually, rather than in bundles with a lot of channels no one wants)? Bear in mind some less popular channels could go by the wayside with no bundling support, and that while overall packages should theoretically decrease in cost, individual channels might cost more.

Stock market signs and predictions: déjà vu all over again?
Article posted by Jason Kestler
According to Warren Buffet, "There is no great mystery to the stock market. The longer I follow it, the less complicated it actually becomes. Buy stocks when they are cheap and everyone is afraid to own them. Don't buy stocks when they are expensive and everyone is afraid of getting 'left behind.' In other words, be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful."

APC carries out a lot of research. Why? Because we link research to capacity building, to changed practice, to networking and advocacy. When we undertake research it is usually because we have an underlying advocacy goal. For example, we have worked with local researcher-activists to conduct research on telecomms policy in the Andean region because our long term goal is to bring down the price of broadband there.
The research is then used in broader capacity development: training, building knowledge of the issues, making information available in the public domain. Simultaneously we facilitate participation in policy processes, giving people an opportunity to use and test the research in real policy processes. The other element of this method, which is what we see makes it produce sustainable results, is that we tend to link researchers and other people seeking policy change, supporting the emergence of networks that then often continue on their own.

The sale to Wanxiang is also subject to review by the Committee for Foreign Investment in the United States, a government body that includes the secretaries of Treasury, Homeland Security, Defense, State, Commerce and Energy, as well as the Attorney General, and considers the national security implications of such investments.
Wanxiang had previously agreed to pay $465 million for a controlling stake in A123, but the deal ran into government opposition due to the investment in the company by the Energy Department and the company's contracts with the U.S. Defense Department.
A123 says the separate deal with Navitas Systems provides a solution to that problem.
"We think we have structured this transaction to address potential national security concerns expressed during the review of our previous investment agreement with Wanxiang announced in August as well as to address concerns raised by the Department of Energy," A123 CEO Dave Vieau said in a statement.
Regulators in the United States, including the Committee on Foreign Investment, must still approve the deal.
-- CNNMoney's Chris Isidore contributed reporting from New York.

Camera+ updated with iPhone 5, iOS 6, iPad, and iCloud support
Posted by Jason Diaz Categories: Photography, App Updates, iPad Apps, New Apps, $0.99
One of the most popular photo editing apps in the App Store, Camera+, has now been updated to support iOS 6 and iPhone 5, as well as a new version for the iPad. One major new feature is the addition of iCloud Sync for the Lightbox. Go grab the update and if you haven't purchased it we highly recommend it, only 99 cents for all this goodness:
Facebook 5.0 for iOS brings amazing speed boost
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Social Networking, App Updates, iPad Apps, Free Apps
Facebook has (finally!) released its updated iOS app that's been rewritten from the ground-up in native iOS dev code. That means that instead of being HTML5 based (and super-slow,) it's now twice as fast. There are other visual tweaks, but they're relatively subdued. You can scroll faster in the News Feed, pictures are a bit larger, there are nicer animations, and Timeline profile pages can now be viewed on the iPad app. All nice, but make no mistake about it, the star here is the fantastic speed of the app. You can download Facebook 5.0 for your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch now, for free on the App Store.

Spotify 0.5.4 appears with iOS 6 support
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Music, App Updates, iPad Apps, Free Apps
The most recent Spotify update has appeared in the App Store with iOS 6 support in tow. Typically, Apple rejects app releases that mention compatibility with beta versions of iOS until they put out to official call. Spotify is what we'd consider a high-profile app, so we thought it was interesting to mention. Aside from iOS 6 support, Spotify 0.5.4 also brings the ability for iPad users to show more channels at once, fixes Facebook login issues, and improves app stability. You can get it now. iOS 6 launches in the fall.
Amazon Instant Video now available for iPad
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Entertainment, iPad Apps, Video Apps, Free Apps
Today Amazon has released its long-awaited Instant Video iPad app on Apple's App Store. If you're an Amazon Prime member, this means that you have access to the entire Prime Instant Video catalog, but anyone can access purchased content on-demand as well. We've been playing with it this morning, and it works just as you'd expect it to, with badges indicating which pieces of content are available for free to Prime members.
One nice bonus is that the app supports AirPlay, essentially bringing Amazon Instant Video to your Apple TV. Sure, it's not built-in like Netflix or the newly-added Hulu Plus, but it still allows you to enjoy Amazon's streaming catalog on your television if you own an Apple TV. You can download the free Amazon Instant Video app now.
Sparrow, the ridiculously popular email app for Mac and iPhone, is set to receive the iPad treatment in the very near future. When visiting the Sparrow homepage, you're now greeted with the cryptic message "We are preparing something bigger". When you sign up for an email update, an iPad slides in to view, sporting the Sparrow app icon. A larger, native iPad version of Sparrow is something that many an iOS user has been clamoring for, and it's nice to see the company has heard those cries. Now, if they can just get push working...

Decide releases iPad app to help you shop wisely
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Lifestyle, iPad Apps, Free Apps
We're always on the hunt for a good deal, which is why we're fans of Decide. The site finds the best deals on electronics and appliances, and through its algorithm, predicts when you should buy things based on price trends. Recently, Decide launched its "Got Your Back" feature, which suggests 10 products at bargain basement prices. If you buy one and the price drops within the next two weeks, Decide will pay you the difference, for free.
Today the company continues its roll with the release of the Decide iPad app. It's basically everything you already love about Decide (and if you don't use them, you should,) optimized for the iPad. Yes, that includes high-resolution Retina display graphics as well. It's a beautiful app, and it's available now on the App Store for free.
I spent some time at the Decide offices earlier this week--great people over there, and we look forward to what the future holds for the company.
MAD Magazine is delightful on the iPad
Posted by Andrey Malskiy Categories: Entertainment, iPad Apps, Reviews, Free Apps
MAD Magazine is now available on an iPad near you. The iPad app will allow users to interact with the standard magazine content, as well as access to exclusive stuff specific to the app. The app is free to download, and has free teaser content from the current issue.
MAD Editor John Ficarra jokingly stated, "We're delighted to bring MAD to the iPad. We think the MAD app may be just the thing to turn the struggling iPad around and make it successful –though most experts think it may be just the thing that kills it altogether."
The MAD app will feature interactive and animated versions of all currently issues, along with a library of back issues and books. Prices of the content will range from $1.99 for back issues to $4.99 for the current issue--however, if you subscribe to the magazine, the price drops to $1.99 per issue, or $9.99 for a full year (six issues.) Aside from the actual magazine, the app will allow users to access MAD's blog "Idiotical."

Angry Birds Space is now available to download!

We know that it's been a while since a new version has dropped, and that you've probably moved on to Draw Something, but it's time for you to take a another look, because Angry Birds Space is now available on multiple platforms.

iWork apps updated for iPad Retina Display
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Productivity, App Updates, iPad Apps, Apple, $9.99
To go along with the new iPad, Apple has been hard at work updating nearly all of its apps to support the new Retina display of the tablet, and that includes all three iWork apps. Pages, Keynote, and Numbers are all now available in version 1.6 in the super high 2048x1536 resolution. Pages also brings new 3D bar and charts, Keynote has new animations available, and Numbers is largely the same aside from the new Retina support. You can download all the app updates now, or buy them for $9.99 each.
iPhoto for iPad and iPhone released for $4.99
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Photography, iPad Apps, New Apps, Apple, $4.99
At yesterday's iPad event, Apple unveiled the final piece of the puzzle as it pertains to bringing the full iLife suite to iOS with the release of iPhoto for iPad and iPhone. Similar to GarageBand and iMovie, iPhoto is available now as a universal app for $5. So, what's the draw? Well, iPhoto lets you use your iOS device's multi-touch display to perform basic photo editing function like simple one-tap white balance, red-eye removal, and exposure adjustments. You can also crop and straighten images, and remove blemishes with ease.
You can pull up your photos that are stored on your device, including the camera roll and Photo Stream, and compare images side-by-side. Edits are non-destructive as they save a copy rather than editing the original. You can process images that are up to 19 megapixels, which should be fine for the vast majority of people out there, but for those of you shooting with a Canon 5D Mark II in RAW format, you may wanna look elsewhere for your photo processing software--but in that scenario, why would you be using an iPad for that function anyway?
You've got a bunch of sharing options, including Twitter, Facebook, and Flickr. You can also export photos to your Camera Roll and to iTunes and email them to contacts. One new feature is Journal, where you can select a group of photos that iPhoto then puts together in a unique gallery with dates, weather information, maps, and more. It's like making a diary out of photos relating to an event or range of dates.
For $5, you can't go wrong with iPhoto for iOS. You can get it now on the App Store.

Vodafone RED Box advert with Yoda shows off the Lumia 800 [Video]
Vodafone has always been creative when it comes to television advertising, whether we have bees walking into shop windows, or someone taking photos of himself and a sleeping lady on a flight and getting caught in the act. In the above video, we have a couple preparing to enjoy a meal and are joined by Yoda (a powerful Jedi from Star Wars). He offers to transfer the man's contacts from the old mobile phone to the new Lumia 800 Windows Phone, using the force.
The advert's message is covering contact transferring that Vodafone can do in-store for customers (RED Box service), but it's good to see a Windows Phone being used as prop.
Source: Youtube; thanks Relief for the heads up!

Love IT
densbucs says:
Awesome. A commercial like this would go over great in the states.
Arun3 says:
Awesome Commercial!.. I don't really know why there aren't as many, if not any, cool adverts like this in the US. Mobile carriers should take note....
MannLou says:
Strong in the marketing skills this. Top shelf.
Curtieson says:
Sooooo...theoretically though...you can back up a windows phone now or is the commercial really just a stretch of the truth? I get the reason it is featured on this site but contacts aren't stored on the phone, they are stored in your Email contacts like GOOGLE, LIVE, or Facebook...so nothing Vodafone is doing has any affect on that really. Plus, I guess this means there is no such thing a the Red Box movie rental overseas, hahah
nizzon says:
Well.. didnt the commercial imply that they just helped with importing contacts and stuff to his new Windows Phone (ie. Live Account) from the old phone?
Nothing special about that, but a good service for many.
Nataku4ca says:
if you think feature phone then you would know what they meant...
NaterBater says:
Yoda and Windows Phone is a win in my book.
montel1978 says:
Wow I love it, great advert now bring this to the US.
Renigade16 says:
Love IT! =D Yoda +WindowsPhone = Badass =D
Gunzta says:
What a totally pointless advert to use on Windows Phone!! I've had several Windows Phone devices now, and I've NEVER needed a pointless service such as this Red Box rubbish. I mean you just log into your new phone with your Live ID and bingo, all your contacts appear when you do your first Hotmail sync! same with your inbox. Am I missing something hear or is someone at Vodaphone missing something? lol. Face Palm!

2014 Aston Martin Vanquish drive review
Our two cents: We didn't miss a manual transmission
What is it?
The Aston Martin Vanquish, coming next spring as a 2014 model, replaces the DBS in Aston's lineup. It wears an all-carbon body and a new V12 boasting 565 hp and 457 lb ft of torque. The powerplant is an all-new block and head with variable-valve timing, new fuel pump, bigger throttle bodies and a bigger intake manifold.
As for the exterior styling, it was inspired by the mighty One-77. Aston CEO Ulrich Bez calls the Vanquish "the best car we've ever done."
The car looks quite a bit more muscular than the DBS, with a more assertive front end and more sculpted body. The interior is new and is a huge improvement over previous Astons—and build quality is way up. The center console has the latest touch-sensitive switchgear and has a cleaner look. Headroom and legroom are up.
What's it like to drive?
Well, with that much power, you'd guess it drives well—and you'd be right. The V12 sounds glorious; the power is prodigious. With the torque peak lower in the band, the power is more accessible in everyday driving. Aston says the car will hit 60 mph in about 4.0 seconds with a 183-mph top speed. There's just a ton of grip, improved with a launch-control program you engage from the cockpit via a button. Weight distribution is roughly 50/50, thanks to most of the weight being between the axles, and the new steering rack provided spot-on feel with the right amount of weight.
The ride/handling mix has been tuned a bit more toward a grand-touring car than an all-out performance sports car, and the whole driving experience is one of effortless performance. The suspension is independent double wishbone, with coil springs front and rear. It's adjustable, with normal, firm and track modes, but we liked the normal setting better. Overall, Bez says the car drives well enough to "make me smile."
There's no manual transmission available, and that might cause some heartburn, but we thoroughly enjoyed the ZF six-speed automatic. At lower speeds it was smooth, just like a normal automatic. Jumping on the throttle once the road opened up, it gave off crisp, quick shifts. Paddles are mounted on the steering column if you still want to shift yourself. Our two cents: We didn't miss a manual transmission.
Do you want one?
Of course you do. In our opinion, Bez is right when he says it's the best car the company has ever done. For that reason alone, you should call your dealer. The car will launch in the U.S. early next year as a 2014 model. Price is $282,110, including a $2,600 gas-guzzler tax and $2,115 for destination and delivery.

Hi guys,
Im interested to have a go at spear fishing, but before i do i want to know what the rules are and how to do it safetly.
I know there are certain places where it is against the law to spear fish, and im sure i can find out those places form the DPI website, but my main questions would be;
What gear would i need to take with me apart from the gun and a flag? Is it safe to tow the Yak behind me when i dive, or should i leave it anchored with a flag and tow a small float with another flag on it?
What should i look for when buying the spear gun? any particular brands?
Anything else you guys can Add to this would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Gov. Rick Perry has dispatched two helicopters to assist 14 local and volunteer fire departments battling multiple blazes in North Texas.
The governor said in a statement Sunday that two fires burning in Palo Pinto County had charred 33,000 acres.
A third fire began burning in the Possum Kingdom Lake area, but officials and aircraft kept it from spreading.
Last year, fires twice scorched Possum Kingdom Lake, a picturesque community 75 miles west of Fort Worth. They destroyed about 160 homes there in April 2011 and another 40 homes four months later.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported Sunday that firefighters were gaining ground on the latest blazes, which have threatened at least 18 homes. No evacuations had been ordered and there were no reported injuries or damage to structures.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A month after losing a costly and long-coveted bid for the U.S. Senate, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst on Tuesday turned his political sights back on the Texas Capitol and said he would seek for a fourth term in his powerful state office.
The line of prominent Republicans eyeing the lieutenant governor's seat in 2014 is already growing long, and Dewhurst's announcement at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., didn't change their plans — or even convince them that Dewhurst would really be on the ballot in two years.
"As I see this today, there's no way to know who will be running for lieutenant governor in 2014," said Agriculture Commissioner Todd Staples, who is also in Tampa this week and had already put his name in the field.
Dewhurst, 67, was first elected lieutenant governor in 2003 and had spent much of the past two years positioned as the favorite to succeed Republican U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. Despite a once commanding lead in the polls and spending millions of his vast personal wealth, though, Dewhurst lost the GOP runoff in July to tea party insurgent Ted Cruz.
The defeat left Dewhurst's political future murky, particularly as an entrenched member of the state's Republican establishment whose conservative record was assailed by Cruz and his restless supporters in the party.
Dewhurst's spokesman, Matt Hirsch, said Dewhurst has moved on from his loss to Cruz and delved back into the business of state affairs. The Texas lieutenant governor presides over the state Senate and wields considerable influence over state policy.
Earlier this week, Dewhurst appointed lawmakers to chair several powerful committees in the upcoming legislative session, including the finance committee, which drafts the budget.
"He was always concerned what was best for the state of Texas," Hirsch said. "He feels there's a lot of work left to be done."
Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson has also announced he intends to run for Dewhurst's seat. Patterson is a former state legislator who has led the Texas General Land Office since 2002. State Comptroller Susan Combs is also widely mentioned as a potential candidate.
Dewhurst had been mum on his political future since losing to Cruz. He has acknowledged missteps in his campaign and believed that many voters angry at Washington were out to punish government officials at all levels. Cruz has never held elected office, but his victory in the runoff vaulted him to Republican stardom and even a headlining address at the party's convention this week.
Before losing to Cruz, Dewhurst had been undefeated in elections since his first run for Texas Land Commissioner in 1998. He personally spent nearly $20 million on the Senate run.

Luckily for him and his family, a heart became available several months later and he gained a new lease on life.
"You feel forever grateful that someone has faced the tragedy of losing a family member and thought to donate the organs to a patient in desperate need, especially at a time like that," said Pitcock.
Many heart transplant patients have a long history of cardiac issues.
"I had hereditary heart problems and had five heart attacks over a six-year period," stated Pitcock, who was a 50-year old family man, truck driver and musician at the time of his transplant. "I even had one heart attack while I was playing onstage at the Texas Opry Jamboree in Magnolia."
After receiving his new heart in January 1991, Pitcock spent 17 days in the hospital. He recovered quickly, and was able to drive a car within five weeks. He still returns to St. Luke's Hospital annually for a checkup.
"I was fortunate that I had no rejection issues and only a few minor problems in all these years," he recalled. "I feel somewhat like Humpty Dumpty who fell into pieces. But, luckily, St. Luke's (Hospital in Houston) was able to put me back together again."
Pitcock has devoted his time to campaigning for families to donate the organs of their loved ones and to helping other transplant patients who need emotional support from someone who has gone through it. Sometimes he talks to them in person or over the phone; other times he corresponds via mail or email. He is a member of "Transplant Buddies" and has communicated with recipients and donor families all over the world.
Pitcock remembers a particular case of a 14-year-old boy who was afraid to accept his necessary heart transplant. He was able to talk to the boy and convince him that the operation would be worth it, and he finally agreed to the transplant. Afterward, the boy's family called Pitcock to thank him.
"This is what I live for, along with just the feeling of happiness for being alive," he said.
Pitcock credits his heart transplant surgeon, O.H. (Bud) Frazier, with saving his life. Dr. Frazier, the Chief of the Center for Cardiac Support at the Texas Heart Institute and Chief of Transplant Service at St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital (both in Houston), has performed more than 1,200 heart transplants during his career. Pitcock was transplant No. 395 for Frazier.
Anyone needing emotional help with their own or a family member's transplant can check out www.transplantbuddies.org, a community site dedicated to providing information and support about the transplant process.
Larry Dyke's official biography states that he has devoted his life's work to the interpretation of the beaty he sees in nature. That beauty will be on display in Tomball Sept. 15, as Dyke will appear at Sallie Fisher's Custom Frame and Art Gallery from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
"He is known for his Texas landscapes, golfing series and he does a lot of inspirational pieces," Fisher said. "He's one of the most famous artists of our time and his work is extremely sought after."
Dyke, who has a painting still residing at The Vatican, said his personal journey to art came as life brought other trials along the way.
"I would get in trouble with teachers for drawing when I was supposed to be paying attention, but then it was more of just something to do," he said.
Dyke said after trying to enter medical school without success, he settled on teaching. While he loved children, something was missing. It was then that a gallery told him they had sold two of his paintings and wanted more.
"That's when I cashed in my teacher retirement and went to work painting full time," he said.
He believes that opportunity was a blessing from God and is why he always signs his work with a special touch.
"I always add a scripture verse," he said. "I'm very grateful for this."
Dyke said the Tomball area has always been kind to him and holds a special place in his heart.
"It's always been a significant area to me," he said. "I don't do many public appearances anymore, but I do look forward to this one."
Fisher said she likes to bring Dyke to the area because his works are extremely popular.
"We try to bring him in every two years," she said. "It's an honor to be able to get him here."

It's been a year since the City of Magnolia passed an ordinance against texting while driving within the city limits. According to Sgt. Silliman of the Magnolia Police Department, this ordinance is doing its job while making the city's streets safer.
"There has been a 54 percent decrease in the number of auto crashes since the ordinance was passed last September," said Silliman.
Silliman contends that thhis is a pretty important statistic because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (www.nhtsa.gov) sited the death of more than 3,000 people nationwide because of texting and driving, or one in ten traffic fatalities, in 2010.
Silliman would like to remind people that the ban on texting while driving still stands within the city limits. So far this year, 34 citations have been issued. Several other Texas cities prohibit texting while driving,, but so far this legislation has not been passed to extend such a law to the entire state. Texas is one of only 11 states without a ban on text messaging.
Driving near schools is an exception. The use of communication devices while driving in a school zone (this includes both texting and talking) is against the law statewide. Additionally, novice drivers in their first 12 months behind the wheel are prohibited from using cell phones for text or voice communication.
"Tragically, a lot of people think it's harmless to text and drive," Magnolia Police Chief Domingo Ibarra said. "We have had several fatal traffic accidents in Montgomery County that were due to texting and driving. The Magnolia ordinance is a benefit because once people realize texting and driving is illegal, it does get their attention and they tend to be more careful."
Magnolia Mayor Todd Kana agreed.
"This ordinance was a move in the right direction," Kana said. "I have heard nothing but positive feedback from residents. As a smartphone user myself, I know it is easy to get distracted by these devices. When people know about the law, it is easier for them to stay focused."
Early voting for the Nov. 6 general election starts Oct. 22 in Texas. In Tomball early voting will be held at the public works building, 501 James Street. Hours and times are Oct. 22-26 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Oct. 27 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Oct. 28 from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Oct. 29 - Nov. 2 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. In Magnolia early voting will be at the Magnolia Fire Department, 18215 Buddy Riley Blvd. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 22-26, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 27, 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 28 and from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 29-Nov. 2. In Waller County early voting will be held at Houston Oaks Country Club, 26705 Heger Rd. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 22-24 and from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 25-Nov. 2, with the exception of being closed Sunday, Oct. 28.
A train crashed into a trailer carrying oil field equipment bound for Mexico, yesterday afternoon in Magnolia.
The trailer was caught under a train crossing that was too low for the trailer to be passing through, according to eyewitnesses. The scene caused traffic headaches in all directions on both FM 1488 and FM 1774, as well as many side streets within Magnolia.
No one was injured.
A Magnolia woman, Kandi Thibodeaux Edwards, shot this amazing video while stopped at the traffic light at 1774 and 1488.
Two farmers markets are now open for residents of the Magnolia-Waller areas, giving them a chance to buy fresh produce, eggs and meats. The most recent market to open is the Waller County Farmers Market, located at the Waller ISD Auxiliary Stadium, just south of SH 290, on Field Store Road. The other is the Magnolia Farmers Market, which has been in existence for three years and is located at the intersection of FM 1488 and FM 1774 in Magnolia.
The new Waller County market, which is open each Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., opened on July 14 and had many visitors, despite the floods in the area that week. On July 21 the market had 15 vendors offering locally-produced food products and home-made crafts. It is sponsored by the Texas AgriLife Extension and the Texas Cooperative Extension.
"This market was founded to boost the agricultural community in Waller County by encouraging crop diversification and offering a year-round sales opportunity for their products," Debbie Cross, Vice President of the Waller County Farmers Market Board of Directors and vendor, said.
Any grower in the area can participate on any given Saturday, by paying the booth fee of $40. There are restrictions on prepared food products, but not on raw produce. Interested vendors should call Debbie Cross for more information at 832-863-5533. All of the workers are volunteers and currently the proceeds from booth fees are used for advertising. The market is looking to partner with local charities that will receive donations and can help promote the market.
The Magnolia market, also called Sweet Magnolia Pickins, is held every second and fourth Sunday of the month from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. It is supported by 4B Community Development of the City of Magnolia and offers local residents fresh and organic food options to purchase. This market requires vendors to be members and currently charges a $25 annual membership fee and a $15 booth fee on each market day the vendor attends. In addition, there is a permit fee required for vendors that sell temperature-specific products such as meat or eggs, or that offer samples. Some of the vendors at the Magnolia market are also represented at the Waller market, but each market also has unique food products. Those interested in seeing the vendor list or becoming a vendor should visitwww.sweetmagnoliapickins.net.
At this time, the Magnolia Farmers Market is held at the same location as Magnolia's Peddler's Green Crafts Market, but on separate days. It is a goal to combine both markets on the same days in the near future, according to Market Manager Boo Henderson.
Big sellers at the markets this month were ripe watermelons, local honey and free-range and grass-fed meats, according to organizers. Today people look for natural food products that are purported to be higher in nutrients and free of unhealthy additives or pesticides. In addition, many residents prefer to help the farms in their own area by buying locally.

We're painting the trim on our house this week...it's going from crimson to caramel, which I love so far with the white and butter yellow. Monochromatic colors schemes are so pretty, don't you think? For the past couple of days, my mom and I have been puttering around the house just doing things like this. Making meatballs, letting zucchini bubble away in slowly browning butter, arranging rocks just-so around flowerbeds. The days feel very long, when just a week ago they felt tiny. Tomorrow I'm getting out my sewing machine to make strands of paper garland, and we're having a picnic table delivered for the backyard. I think I'll paint it the most beautiful color I can find and then maybe build a canopy over it with a string or two of twinkle lights woven through and we'll have supper out there. I've been dying to make this peach ricotta tart. Maybe with a rosemary olive-oil tart dough?
Oh, the possibilities of this whole entire month :)

Yay for the sunshine
So this is just an update on all the stuff that is going on here just now. Over the next week the cafe at One Errol Gardens will be closing from Thursday to Thursday. This is because we are doing a mini refit and smartening the place up a wee bit. We've been open as a cafe for just over a year, and have served over 3000 customers and almost 1000 conference delegates, and we've lived in the space for that time, and worked out what is good and what is not, and we're going to make one or two changes. So we open again on Friday 31st May with a refreshed and revamped space. The music groups will run as usual on Wednesday the 29th regardless of the cafe being closed. Rowdy Rascals is off on Friday 24th.

Anna Fader
Anna Fader - Founding Editor
I was born in Park Slope, spent my early years in the West Village and by the time I graduated high school, had lived in 4 of the 5 boroughs. Growing up in NYC in the 70s meant the streets were my playgrounds, museums and avant garde music venues were the kid-friendly activities and living downtown taught me the importance of creating community for families in NYC.
Now, raising my own two children in Lower Manhattan, I try to create the same sense of magic and community that I grew up with, despite today's more commercialized version of kid-friendly New York.
I started writing Mommy Poppins in 2007 to share my vision for a more artsy, educational, non-commercialized and community-oriented way to raise kids in New York City. Today, Mommy Poppins is relied on by over 250,000 parents each month to curate the best things to do with kids in New York City, New Jersey, Long Island, Connecticut, Boston and Los Angeles and I'm happy that we are successfully helping families do more than just find a way to spend an afternoon, but sharing activities that are enriching and create amazing memories together.

Into Eternity
The Incurable Tragedy
Canadian progressive/power/melodeath band Into Eternity continue their revolving-door line-up (new second guitarist, new drummer) and release this, their fourth record, and a logical follow-up to 2006's The Scattering Of Ashes. Still in place is lead guitarist and mastermind Tim Roth's array of ever-changing fleet-fingered riffs, the whole of The Incurable Tragedy drenched in guitar heroics and tempo shifts. Also still on board are Stu Block's truly impressive multi-octave vocals—his ability to jump from death growl to the soaring highs of "Battle Angels"-era Warrel Dane is almost unmatched. (Dane and King Diamond and, of course, Halford come to mind as possible contenders, although none of them have ever ventured into prolonged growling and rasping like Block does.) When all is said and done, fans of the previous record will be happy because, honestly, not too much has changed.
Hence the title, The Incurable Tragedy is a concept record about terminal illness, drawing inspiration from Roth's loss of family members and friends to cancer over the past few years. (Strangely, it's the second cancer-themed concept record in the last two years, with My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade having beaten Into Eternity to the punch back in 2006, although my mentioning that I actually knew that may be tantamount to treason in some circles. Also, the fact that I know that record well enough to make the following comments upon its substance may be grounds for abject ridicule, but I'm man enough to accept that.) With all due respect to Roth's losses, I find that, like the MCR record, The Incurable Tragedy's biggest missteps come in dealing with the concept—when they deal directly with the theme of cancer, the lyrics become ham-fisted and cringe-inducing. Witness lines like "Now I realize that I will never leave this hospital / I'm finished / the anguish is tearing me apart" (from the unbearably maudlin and melodramatic "The Incurable Tragedy I"). Divorcing the result from its inspiration--and in doing so leaving behind all three parts of the title track (the third of which is just an instrumental guitar wank)—the album feels like The Scattering Of Ashes, Part Deux to me. Admittedly, that's not a bad thing, as Ashes was a strong record, but it's worthy of note that, despite its ambitious aspirations with the concept and all, The Incurable Tragedy is a bit of a holding pattern for this band.
So what does that mean, for those of you who may be unfamiliar with the band's past efforts? Well, those that preferred Chris Krall to Stu Block will still decry this as "nothing compared to Buried In Oblivion," and it may well not be, but nonetheless, here's what it is: it's a progressive-styled blend of melodic death and power metal, with alternating soaring choruses and growled vocals, both high and low. Roth's guitar leads are melodic and flashy, if not always particularly brilliant, and the songs are crafted such that there's a surplus of riffing in each one. (To be fair, one thing The Incurable Tragedy does differently than Ashes is reign in the band's tendency to over-stuff each tune with unrepeated segments. The songs are still choppy and disjointed, but overall, the flow seems a bit more streamlined, which is arguably good and bad.) The band's musicianship is impeccable—that much is certain. New drummer Steve Bolognese (formerly of Beyond The Embrace) ably fills Jim Austin's shoes, and his performance is certainly aided by an improved drum production when compared to that of Ashes.
Block's vocals fall into love-'em-or-hate-'em territory, and my years of King Diamond worship mean that I'm certainly predisposed to the former. Those of you who can't handle the vibrato-laden falsetto wailing will do well to avoid Into Eternity, but those among you who enjoy dramatic, guitar-laden, progressive-minded and melodic death metal will find much to enjoy here. Fans of the likes of Nevermore, 3 Inches Of Blood and earlier Into Eternity works should pursue The Incurable Tragedy and just skip the goofy (or rather, goofiest) parts.

Whenever there is a problem, there is a reason. It is so helpful to determine the root of a problem before addressing a child's misbehavior. Children misbehave for a multitude of reasons, including lack of sleep, medical concerns, emotional discomfort, and miscommunication to name a few. A parent's frustration can lead to an impulsive reaction, rather than a response which teaches and provides a replacement behavior. Read more in my syndicated column, There is always reason for a child's misbehavior.
Diana Boggia has a masters degree in education with licensure in preschool, elementary and special education. She taught children with multiple disabilities for 15 years and has been working with parents (families) with behavioral concerns for more than 23 years. She develops individualized strategies to build self esteem and diminish negative, attention-seeking behaviors for each child to be successful in achieving remarkable results. Throughout her work with parents Diana has developed a program that includes hands-on materials encompassing limit-setting, developing structure with schedules, teaching time management, increasing listening skills and parenting with incentives, rather than threats. These successful strategies have changed the dynamics of many families who were struggling with their child's behaviors.

Nowadays, most people prefer to watch movies at home rather than in cinemas. When DVDs and DVD players were discovered, more and more people got interested in this, especially during weekends when they frequently decide to engage with movie marathons. Many of them just go on some rental shops and choose the movie they prefer to watch. Since then, investors started to invest in this kind of business since they found out that people are fond of watching movies at home. Rental shops were then built and opened to the people where they can borrow DVDs at a low price. But then again, renting DVD's has also pros and cons.
- Plethora of selections. Unlike in cinemas wherein you can only choose among the movies that they are showing. DVD rental shops offer different kinds of movies. Whether you're looking for the newest summer blockbuster, all time classics or sweet flicks, you can have it by just going into the nearest DVD rental shop in your town and choosing the movie you're planning to watch.
- See the movies you love in your own home. Nothing's more comfortable than watching your favorite movie at your own house. You can lie down on your sofa or be at any position your comfortable with while watching the latest installment of Breaking Dawn.
- Affordable. One thing that is also good in renting movies is that they're affordable and with just a few money that you have in your pocket, you can already watch the movie you love. And guess what, the picture quality is as good as in cinemas, the only difference is you're watching it in a smaller screen.
- Quality. A problem when it comes to renting DVDs is that some of it has been damaged since different people borrows it. Especially those movies that are known as hit, it is more prone to get damaged knowing the fact that people choose movies that are well known and famous.
- Borrowing Process. Going to DVD rental shops could be tiring some time since you still have to wait for your turn so that you can borrow the movie that you want to watch. If a lot of people are in the store before you, you might also have to be patient in waiting before it's your turn to borrow.
- Due date. In borrowing DVD's, you also have to make sure that you'll be able to return it before the due date or else you might get penalties that you might not want to have.

The Swiss watchmaker stamps its mark for the fifth time as the official timepiece partner for two major Polo tournaments
Kuala Lumpur, June 2012 – Jaeger-LeCoultre Malaysia conquers the polo circuit once again as official timepiece sponsor of the Malaysian International Polo Tournament and the Malaysian Ladies International Polo Championship 2012 for the fifth year running. On the polo fields, Jaeger-LeCoultre welcomes its Polo ambassador Lia Salvo.
The two world class tournaments took place on the historic ground of the Royal Selangor Polo Club located right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. The Malaysian Open this year featured some of the top-class goalers from Argentina, Thailand and Singapore alongside polo players from Malaysia. The participating teams have displayed some of the best polo play in this region and showcased Malaysia as one of the growing esteemed polo nation.
After a week of excitement and challenge on the polo grounds, the final witnessed KotaSAS defeating The Royal Pahang to be crowned as the champion of the Malaysian International Polo Tournament. KotaSAS walked away with a whooping MYR50,000 worth of prizes including Jaeger-LeCoultre gift watch certificates, saddle blankets and other prizes from La Martina and Julius Baer.
Thai Polo claimed the 2nd runner up spot. This year, Jaeger-LeCoultre also presented the tournament's most outstanding player and best patron award to HRH Tengku Amir, who took home a specially engraved Reverso Grande Taille.
The Malaysian Ladies International Polo Championship had the pleasure to see Jaeger-LeCoultre brand ambassador Lia Salvo playing in the tournament. La Boheme battled the Jaeger-LeCoultre team in a highly competitive final. La Boheme claimed victory by inching the Jaeger-LeCoultre team to a 5-4 score line. Jaeger-LeCoultre team played exceptionally well to be awarded the most valuable player award and a specially engraved Grande Reverso Ultra Thin.
"Two years ago, Jaeger-LeCoultre successfully organized the first ladies exhibition match in Malaysia and this year saw the very first ladies tournament. The popularity of the sport has increased tremendously in Malaysia and the introduction of the inaugural Jaeger-LeCoultre Ladies International Polo Championship is timely this year. Jaeger-LeCoultre is committed to the development of polo in Malaysia and looks forward to a bigger tournament next year," said Alexis-DeLaporte, Managing Director of South East Asia & Australia for Jaeger-LeCoultre.
"We are delighted to have two top five world polo lady professionals to take part in this championship. Firstly, is our very own young and talented polo professional Lía Salvo representing the Jaeger-LeCoultre team and the renowned professional polo player Sunny Hale from the United States playing for La Boheme." added DeLaporte.
In conjunction with the Malaysian Ladies International Polo Championship and the Golden Goals Charity Cup, Jaeger-LeCoultre contributed a timepiece that is specially engraved with a pink lacquered ribbon in support of the Breast Cancer Welfare Association and the Tengku Azizah Fertility Foundation.

The Sakura Bloom Styleathon, Round 2 Roundup!
27 comments:
Love Nat's. This round she is definitely the postess with the mostest. These mamas all look so gorgeous with their slings and babes. The raw silk is divine.
I was particularly moved by someone's comment about the feel of her daughter's hand gripping her arm and driving a little matchbox car across her collarbone. Those baby touches are one of the best aspects of motherhood. I smile to myself every time my baby boy nuzzles his nose into my chest when I'm wearing him. I wonder if he's breathing me like I do to him.- AnonymousJuly 6, 2011 at 3:27 PM

http://www.dlparadise.comI love these photos and I super love a sling--my daughter is 22 months old and we still use ours(it's a different brand since I'm just hearing about Sakura Bloom) all the time! But I would love love love to see a mom and/or baby of a different nationality using them, too...Laura@ http://lauramauk.blogspot.com/
