Made from a real Mason jar, SUCK UK's Sun Jar provides high-tech, energy-efficient lighting in a traditional vessel. Captured inside the jar you'll find a highly-efficient solar cell, a rechargeable battery, and a low-energy LED bulb. Place the jar in direct sunlight and the solar cells create an electrical current that charges the battery over a few hours' time.
Safe for indoor and outdoor use. The battery needs sun to fully charge, and your Sun Jar may need charging before its first use. Leave outside or in a sunny window. It will require several hours and in overcast conditions, charging for a few days is recommended. May contain small parts. Not suitable for children under the age of 36 months.

Used when disgusted or upset about something 1.When bobby was fired he remarked "This is bullshit!"
2. | bull shit | ||
1. A statement made without regard for its truth, accuracy, or veracity. A bull shit statement is distinguished from a lie because a lie is a knowing falsehood, while bull shit simply does not care whether it is true or false.
2. An order, command, directive, or punishment that is unjustified or overly burdensome. 1. George was talking about how good he is at basketball, but it was all just bull shit.
Kid: My teacher told me today that Charlamagne was gay. Parent: Son, that is complete bull shit. 2. I can't believe I got a $200 ticket for jaywalking, that's such bull shit. This company policy defining sexual harassment to include light petting is complete bull shit. |

a really fun card game, u gotta place cards down in order, like Ace, 2,3 4", it doesn't matter how many u put down, as long as u get rid of ur cards, if you don't have the card(s) u need to put down, just put card(s) down and say it's the card(s) u need to put down...if someone thinks ur lying they have to say "B.S." or "bullshit" if they're right, the person who lied must take the entire pile of cards, if the person who said B.S. is wrong they must take the pile. The first one to lose all their cards wins! Joey: "3 6's"
Me: "Bullshit!" *flips the cards and sees a 3 a 2 and a 5* Joey: "Damn..." *takes the pile of cards" |

The Poetry of Kabbalah Mystical Verse from the Jewish Tradition Peter Cole, Aminadav Dykman
- Price: £20.00
- Add to Basket
- Series:
- Margellos World Republic of Letters
- Format:
- Hardback
- Publication date:
- 03 Apr 2012
- 9780300169164
- Dimensions:
- 320 pages: 210 x 140 x 36mm
This groundbreaking collection presents for the first time in English a substantial body of poetry from the world of Jewish mysticism. Taking up Gershom Scholem's call to plumb the "tremendous poetic potential concealed" in the Kabbalistic tradition, MacArthur-winning poet and translator Peter Cole provides dazzling English renderings of works composed on three continents over a period of some fifteen hundred years.
The volume presents the texts in their original languages alongside the English translations. These prayerful poems represent different cultural terrains and take up multiple tacks. The reader will encounter cosmological masterpieces and occasional poems; erotic charms and epic phantasmagoria; ballad-like lyrics and didactic mottoes; and, simple hymns of pure devotion and gnomic verse of numerical intrigue. Cole supplies an insightful introduction along with commentaries on the poems, and in an elegant afterword Aminadav Dykman places Kabbalistic verse in the context of world literature.
Peter Cole is the author of three books of poems and the translator of more than a dozen volumes from Hebrew and Arabic. His many honours include the National Jewish Book Award for Poetry and the PEN Translation Award for Poetry. In 2007 he was named a MacArthur Fellow, and in 2010 he received an Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He divides his time between New Haven and Jerusalem. Aminadav Dykman teaches comparative literature at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem. He has published numerous translations of French, Russian, English, Greek, Latin, and Italian poems into Hebrew.
"A groundbreaking work. Cole reveals and explores a subject that has hardly been noticed in previous scholarship or popular writing: the poetic aspect of Jewish mysticism. His translations are superb, his introductions to each section are clear and stimulating, and his notes are learned yet not intimidating, clarifying what would otherwise remain obscure. In short, he brings this material alive for a contemporary reader. This is a marvelous book."--Daniel Matt, author of The Essential Kabbalah and translator of The Zohar: Pritzker Edition

"If the data do not prove that indexing wins, well, the data are wrong."
For the most part, the data appear to be true.
In statistics compiled for�Money Management Executive�by�Morningstar, passively managed stock funds-those that do no more than match the component stocks found in an underlying index-achieved a 9.45% annual return over 25 years. That edged the annualized returns of actively managed stock funds (9.42%) and easily beat actively managed mutual funds of all types (7.89%). Passively managed mutual funds of all types came in at 9.08%.
Similarly, passively managed exchange-traded funds achieved the best annual returns over the last 15 years (6.19%) and last 10 years (8.96%).
But, after that, the data can be "wrong." Actively managed stock funds had the best performance over 20 years, edging passive stock funds 8.14% to 8.11%. And actively managed mutual funds of all types have done the best in the last five years, coming in at 1.98% where, for instance, passively managed exchange-traded funds lost 1.17% a year.
Which just goes to show, when it comes to investing, active management versus passive management "is not an either-or" proposition, said�Russ Koesterich, chief investment strategist for�BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager. "It's both.''
And, as if to prove the point,�Vanguard Group, the company that became the largest mutual fund firm in the world from promoting the virtues of index investing, actually agrees.
In a research report posted on Jan. 8 to its website, Vanguard says "most actively managed equity funds will underpform their benchmarks.'' But it argues that there are "concrete ways of increasing the probability of success" with active management.
"On average, actively managed funds will not outperform'' the index against which they gauge their success, said�Daniel Wallick, a principal in Vanguard's Investment Strategy Group and a co-author of the report. "But a subset will.''
And, perhaps not surprisingly, that subset includes funds actively run by Vanguard managers.
Many Vanguard investors, he notes, don't even know that the firm has actively managed funds. But Vanguard got its start handling administrative functions for an operator of active funds known as�Wellington Management.

Is Atlanta A Generous City?
The holiday season is in full swing and Patch's Question of the Week wants to know: is our community a generous one at this time of year?
'Tis the season for holiday parties, gifts for friends and family and jingle bells.
But is it also a season for giving? And if so, is Atlanta a generous city to those less fortunate during the holidays?
The U.S. Marines and Toys for Tots are as certain a holiday fixture throughout metro Atlanta as the Pink Pig and the Macy's Christmas tree. Hardy souls are being offered the chance to experience a Marine Corps-style workout in exchange for an unwrapped toy on Dec. 15.
A Toys for Tots benefit was held just this week in Virginia Highland and Druid Hills, and a Masonic lodge in Chamblee is offering residents the chance to drop off an unwrapped toy for a needy child for the first time ever.
But it's not just Toys for Tots that reaches out for donations and assistance this time of year. Buckhead Christian Ministries is asking for toys for children, and KIPP STRIVE Academy in southwest Atlanta is collecting pajamas for children in need.
And Thursday, Dec. 6, is Georgia Gives Day, where a host of organizations such as Senior Connections, Angel Flight and dozens of others will be the beneficiary of a single, statewide day of giving.
With all of these worthwhile philanthropic goings on, is Atlanta a generous community? Does the city give enough, too much or not enough to these causes? And does the spirit of giving end on Dec. 26, or does it extend throughout the year for the metropolis once called, 'the city too busy to hate?'

I usually wear them with jeans (blue or black) or with slim fitting pants. The shoes come with two different colored sets of laces so they are able to be paired with a variety of styles and colors. They look sturdy, but are very light-weight. This is great for me since I walk everywhere around the city.

[20K] Legacy of the Future
07/04/2013 in 20K
Author: Albert Lamm
Location: ++ Location denied ++
Transmission Time: 023987/M21
Received: Saturn, Relay point 5
I reluctantly bring another unsettling report from an Earth expedition. The DMS Barclay, a decommissioned Canyon-class cruiser currently owned by the Pan-Pacific Treaty organisation and renamed the Horizon, has sent a report back to Earth regarding an abandoned planet which seems to have been an outpost of the Chinasian Alliance.
The report was intercepted by one of our intelligence operatives working for Solar Command. The Treaty seems to be aware of our existence but we do not currently know if they've made the connection between Detachment 44 and Earthwatch – they simply refer to us within the following report as "secret intelligence". It is a matter of concern that our organisation's existence is known and we clearly have some work to do, given that our ranks might have been compromised by Pan-Pacific.
Clarification follows:
1. The Pan-Pacific Treaty is formed from a coalition of businesses and nation-states who have expressed resistance to assimilation by the Empire. The Treaty views itself as a collective working towards a greater whole, a whole which benefits only the members of the Treaty. The Treaty was only formally declared six weeks ago, although many of its members have been working together for about two years. So far, the Treaty has been conducting their own research and exploration using a small fleet of ships they have recently purchased – a fleet which contains at least two decommissioned vessels of the Terran Navy.
2. We do not currently know the extent of the Treaty's manpower, military strength or influence.

Years after she first saw "The Passion of the Christ," Lori Pearson still feels queasy when she recalls the brutally graphic movie about the final hours of Jesus' life.
"After I left the theater I remember feeling physically uncomfortable," said Pearson, a Dublin, Ohio, mother of two teenagers who writes movie reviews for the website Kids in Mind. "It was gruesome torture sequence after gruesome torture sequence. That kind of thing has a tendency to stay with me."
Pearson and her husband, Aris Christofides, started writing highly descriptive online reviews in 1992 to help parents navigate the sometimes confusing nature of movie ratings, but over the years their audience has evolved to include an unexpected group: adults looking to avoid certain types of screen violence themselves.
"We get a lot of email from women who've been victims of sexual violence and don't want to see those kinds of scenes," Pearson said. "We get email from people who've been in a car accident and don't want to see a movie with a car accident. And a lot of people just can't tolerate torture — including me."
Amid the heated public debate over whether violent entertainment causes or encourages aggressive behavior, it's easy to overlook members of the audience who are quietly but profoundly affected by scenes of murder and mutilation in movies and television — the ones who go home and pull their covers over their heads or go out of their way to avoid such fare entirely.
Although it's not often discussed, some people are more sensitive to screen violence than others, both for reasons of physiology and life experience.
In a world where increasingly grisly entertainment is delivered on bigger screens, with more realistic visual effects and in the sometimes assaulting detail of high definition and 3-D, those with more delicate sensibilities may feel under siege. And with violent movies such as "The Dark Knight Rises" and "The Hunger Games" among last year's highest grossers and programs like "Criminal Minds" and "The Walking Dead" scoring some of TV's highest ratings, Hollywood has little incentive to cater to them.
San Francisco psychologist Elaine Aron estimates that 15 to 20 percent of people are "highly sensitive," a group she identified in the 1990s and published research on in medical journals such as Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience and the Journal of Analytical Psychology. Along with being more affected by noises and smells, these same people tend to react more strongly to violent imagery.
"Sensitive people have more active mirror neurons," Aron said, describing a type of nerve cell that neuroscientists have only recently begun to research. "These are the parts of the brain where if you see somebody kick a ball, you feel as though you're kicking the ball yourself. Then there are other parts of the brain that tell you, 'No, it's not you.' But the experience of empathy still happens, and for some people, it's very intense."
Sensitive viewers don't just react while sitting in a movie theater — with a quickening of the pulse and a surge of stress hormones — but long after, often experiencing nightmares or feeling uncomfortable in situations that remind them of the scene.
Anyone who has ever thought of "Jaws" while wading in the ocean or "Psycho" while taking a shower can relate to the indelibility of certain filmed images. But for some people the pictures pose real and lasting problems.
After seeing the 1967 Audrey Hepburn thriller "Wait Until Dark," Joanne Cantor couldn't sleep for days. Cantor, an expert on the psychological effects of media and a professor emeritus at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, was in her 20s and had just moved to Paris. Like Hepburn's character, who is blind and being pursued by criminals, she was a vulnerable young woman in an unfamiliar setting.
Repercussions from media violence, as Cantor found, are more acute when we're young. Imagery we see when we're younger than 13 leaves a particularly lasting imprint, she said, and children under 5 are almost completely unable to differentiate fiction from reality.
In surveys of 530 of Cantor's undergraduate students, 86 percent reported having some fright symptoms after viewing certain kinds of media when they were under age 13. Some said they couldn't sleep for days, while others reported ongoing discomfort around normally nonthreatening objects or beings, such as clowns or animals.
"Our brains are made to respond negatively to depictions of violence," said Cantor, who also wrote the book "Mommy, I'm Scared." "The fear response is designed to keep us alive. Some people say, 'Why am I such a baby? What's wrong with me? This gives me nightmares, but this is what my boyfriend wants me to watch.' I tell them, 'You're human, there's nothing wrong with you.' Our brains evolved to respond this way before there were movies."
Some of what determines whether an audience enjoys a violent movie is in the genes, but some of it is in personal histories, according to Michael Pluess, a psychologist at the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College in London who studies why some people are more influenced by their environment than others.
"If someone has a very strong reaction to specific things they see, it might be that it reminds them of a trauma," Pluess said. "It might be more than sensitivity, it might be a fear response — a blood phobia, a dog phobia."
For those who do feel the reverberations of media violence more thoroughly, these can be trying times to go to the movies, Pluess said. Consider recent offerings such as the horror film "Texas Chainsaw 3D," in which a man is dragged into a meat grinder or the Sylvester Stallone action film "Bullet to the Head," in which a bullet speeds toward the audience in the opening credits.
"As a society we've gotten habituated to special effects, 3-D — the filmmakers are trying everything possible to help us forget this is a film," Pluess said. "For people who are more affected by what they can see, they might struggle to realize they are not part of the film."
Pluess does see a potential upside for the sensitive among us. He recently conducted a pilot experiment in which he showed two film clips to a group of 90 people — one was a humorous scene from the romantic comedy "When Harry Met Sally," the other a scene in which a character died in the boxing drama "The Champ." After watching the clips, the group had to rate their feelings.
Some were unaffected, some deeply so. The people who had the strongest negative response to "The Champ" were often the same ones who had the strongest positive response to "When Harry Met Sally."
"It's not just that some people are more affected by violence — those same people enjoy more the benefit of a film," Pluess said. "When there's a romantic moment or a funny moment, they feel it more too."

Positive organ
- Place of origin:
Dresden, Germany (probably, made)
- Date:
1627 (made)
- Artist/Maker:
Fritzsche, Gottfried, born 1578 - died 1638 (attributed to, maker)
Defrain, Tobias (restorer) - Materials and Techniques:
Pine case, carved, painted and gilt; birch keys, slides and windchest; paper organ pipes
- Museum number:
2:1 to 3-1867
- Gallery location:
On loan
Though organs are mostly associated with church music the positive organ was a smaller version, most often used in domestic settings in the 16th and 17th centuries. It would be set on a table, and the player would press the keys while an assistant pumped the bellows from the back in order to produce the sound.
This instrument may have belonged to Johann Georg I Duke of Saxony (1585-1656), whose portrait is painted on the instrument. The crest of the organ is decorated with openwork scrolls, known as 'strapwork', a style popular throughout Northern Europe during the Duke's lifetime.

Details of Kraton - Yogyakarta,Indonesia
Posted on : 11 January 2013
Categories : Culture and Heritage
Kraton, or the Sultan's Palace, is a working royal palace of Sultan the 10th. The guards are still working full-time with their swords that have been passed in the family, although they are more the symbolic figures nowadays. For the people of Yogyakarta, the Kraton has been at the heart of their everyday life since the mid 1700s. They made the palace with the imported materials from around the world: marble from Italy, iron from the Netherlands and so on. The big parts of the palace were ruined due to the big earthquake six years ago, and now it's restored. However they tried to keep the original designs of the details. There are exhibits that are open to public: family portraits, the paintings from the important ceremony (such as the circumcision ceremony) treasures that are from the foreign countries and historical items. Especially I liked the details of the palace here and there. The tiles were my favourite. Here I share some of the detail designs from the Sultan's home.

NEW YORK — In the 1982 sci-fi movie "Blade Runner," there are hints that the hero, played by Harrison Ford, is an artificial human — an "android" or "replicant." His job is to go out and kill other, rogue androids.
If he's an android, he's of the latest model, Nexus 7. That's also the name Google Inc. has picked for the first tablet to bear the Google brand. Clearly, its mission is to go out and kill rogue tablets running Google's Android software.
Specifically, the Nexus 7 seems to have been designed to give anyone who bought a Kindle Fire from Amazon.com Inc. or a Nook Tablet from Barnes & Noble Inc. a lethal case of buyer's remorse.
The Nexus 7 costs $199, the same that Amazon and Barnes & Noble charge for their tablets. But it's better than theirs in significant ways, as it became clear to me after a couple of days of use. Google announced the tablet last week and is taking pre-orders for delivery in mid-July.
Why is Google targeting the Kindle Fire and the Nook Tablet? Because they've been relatively successful competitors to Apple Inc.'s iPad tablet, yet Google is getting no benefit from their success.
Google makes its Android operating software available for any device manufacturer to use. Amazon and Barnes & Noble took Android and modified it heavily. Namely, they took out the applications that point to Google's services and the advertising it sells. Instead, the apps point to the companies' own stores.
In other words, these tablets are rogue Androids.
Other tablets, such as Samsung's Galaxy, use the "proper," Googlish version of Android, but they've been more expensive than the Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet. Apparently, Google thought it was time to make a really good, proper Android tablet for $199.
It's succeeded. As far as I can tell from my few days of use so far, the Nexus 7 is a really good value. It's made by AsusTek Computer, a Taiwanese company that was originally planning to sell a similar tablet for $249.
The Nexus 7 is a plain black slab with a screen that's 7 inches on the diagonal — the same size as the Nook and the Fire. The most noticeable feature it has over the competition is a low-resolution camera, facing the user. That means the Nexus 7 can be used for videoconferencing, but it's nearly impossible to use for snapshots. It also has a microphone, which the Fire lacks.
The screen has a higher resolution than the Fire, and colors look more vivid. The whole tablet is slightly thinner and appreciably lighter than the Fire.
Other nifty but invisible hardware upgrades on the Nexus 7 include Bluetooth and GPS chips for use with headsets and navigation software. The tablet even has a chip for near-field communications, which means it can "talk" to some phones and store payment terminals when tapped against them.
But the most important difference between the Nexus 7 and its prey is the software. Not only is it running stock Android, but it's also the first device to run the latest version of Android. Google, with its trademark combination of cute and cutthroat, calls it "Jelly Bean."
Stock Android gives Nexus 7 access to a much wider array of applications than its competitors, running into the hundreds of thousands. The diversity also applies to content: You can use a wider range of e-book stores and movie services on the Nexus 7. You can read Kindle books on the Nexus 7, for example, but you can't read Google books on the Kindle.
Google does its best, though, to steer users to its "Play" store for apps, movies, music and books. Buyers even get a $25 credit toward store purchases, partly defraying the cost of the tablet itself.
With a powerful processing chip and plentiful RAM, the Nexus 7 is fast and slick. You can switch directly from application to application, something that isn't possible with the Fire or Nook.
The chief issue buyers will likely bump into with the Nexus 7 is a lack of storage space. The $199 model has just 8 gigabytes of storage, and a quarter of that is overhead. It has just 5.9 gigabytes actually available. With downloads of a few applications, some songs and one movie, more than half was gone.
The Nexus 7 is a great entry in the cheap-and-small tablet category, even if it's not perfect. But then again, who is?

Debated on this Silver/Yellow rug for some time and compared it to many others. I have two cats that love a hand looped rug so I knew that I had to go with a tufted style that their claws couldn't damage. I love the trellis design and wanted something to go with my new black leather sofas. This is the most perfect rug! It is so stylish and well made. I wasn't sure on the coloring, but in seeing it in person it really makes a statement. The yellow is comparable to the gold crayon in your Crayola set and leans more toward mustard than sunshiny the silver is a nice medium gray (no blue tinge). It is a wonderful contrast and surprisingly neutral. With black sofas I am complimenting with teal, burnt orange, dark red and violet and neutral walls. I can't say enough, every time I walk into my living room it brings a smile to my face. Hubby loves it too, as it isn't too feminine. I was nervous about ordering sight unseen, but let me assure you, you can't go wrong with this purchase!! Delivery was fast and easy and it arrived in perfect condition. No off gassing and minimal shedding so far. You can't beat the price for the quality and class that this rug offers.
I love this rug! I was worried when I read the review and saw that the grey had yellow stripes as that is not what is pictured. But don't worry it is grey with an ivory accent. It looks beautiful under my dining room table!
Glad to receive this rug. The first one I ordered arrived and was not the correct rug. I was disappointed that the rug sent matched the rug ordered in size only. However the process of return was easy and the refunding was prompt. All went well on the second order. Very pleased with the rug. Would use this site to order goods again.
I'm an interior designer and frequently shop Overstock for some amazing deals. This rug could easily cost double the price for this type of pile and construction. Amazingly low cost for quality this great. Solid A!
I would definitely recommend this rug, looks great in person, shipped quickly. My only regret is that it's not the exact color I was hoping for, but that's always a risk when you buy online.
The rug seems to be of a decent quality - however, it is much lighter/brighter royal blue than the photos. I knew I was taking a risk since the photo was labeled "Royal Blue" but the Drop-Down box selection said "Navy"... But since the photos of the blue rug definitely looked less royal blue and more navy I went for it. Unfortunately for me it is in fact a royal blue and I do not love it. Also, the design isn't perfectly centered on the rug so on one corner there is a little tuft of white that is part of the trellis pattern, but because it is just a small tuft on the corner it looks like a mistake or damage. To be clear it is NOT damaged in any way, I just don't like the way the patter fell on the corner of the rug. If I'd noticed it before I placed it under all of my furniture I'd have tried to hide it in the back. Also, this rug was delivered in packaging from another online rug store, and the sale price listed at that store was a quite a bit less than it is listed for on Overstock. Kudos to Overstock for honoring their price, so at least I feel like I got a good deal even if I don't like the color.
I love this rug, it's colors are just like the picture and I'm very happy with everything about it. It's a great size, good quality, and feels great on bare feet. The color is good because it doesn't show dirt from the dogs easily, and it's not too masculine or feminine. Could go wither way. I'm happy with it.

Canada-China Human Capital Dialogue
The Canada-China Human Capital Dialogue is a research partnership between think-tanks of the two countries on the opportunities and challenges of managing and capitalizing talent flows between Canada and China.
In November 2011, the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada (APFC) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with three China-based think-tanks to formalize a collaborative research partnership on Canada-China human capital flows. The Canada-China Human Capital Dialogue (the 'Project') was launched at the China-Canada Talent Flows and Development Cooperation Conference in Beijing, China. The Project aims to better understand the key factors contributing to human capital exchange in both countries in the context of globalization, as well as develop and share policy recommendations to improve the management of human capital flows between both countries.

Housecalls - Chocolate vs. Carob, Healthy Carpet Cleaners, Multivitamin Choices
Chocolate Conundrum
Q Is carob any healthier than chocolate?
A Nope. "It was hot in the seventies and people think it's healthy, but it's really just a fad that won't die," says Althea Zanecosky, a registered dietitian with the American Dietetic Association. While carob does offer a few advantages over chocolate—it's caffeine-free and a richer source of potassium and calcium—it seems doomed to go the way of pet rocks and mood rings as science reveals ever more reasons to choose chocolate.
The flavonoids in chocolate, especially dark chocolate, can lessen the risk of heart disease, as can the trace minerals and antioxidants it contains. And the main type of saturated fat in chocolate, stearic acid, has no effect on cholesterol, while the dominant type in carob, lauric acid, can raise it.
While this is great news for closet chocoholics who've been trying to placate themselves with carob bars, it's not quite a license to set up camp inside Willy Wonka's factory. Since chocolate is fairly high in calories and fat, experts still say we should eat it in moderation—probably no more than an ounce a day, says Zanecosky.
Naturally Clean Carpets
Q What's the best nontoxic way to clean carpets?
A You'll need to avoid cleaning solutions that contain strong perfumes that can trigger dizziness, nausea, respiratory problems, and allergic reactions. "Your best bet is to find a cleaning service that uses a high-temperature steaming system, which doesn't require any detergent at all," says Annie Berthold-Bond, author of Better Basics for the Home. "Or find a company that uses a perfume-free solution." (Chem-Dry is one national franchise that will use a fragrance-free solution on request.)
Another option is to rent a do-it-yourself carpet cleaning machine and replace the detergent with a fragrance-free or naturally scented alternative. First, rinse out the tank. Then make a solution of a quarter-cup of a concentrated, nontoxic, all-purpose cleaning solution (Murphy's Oil Soap works well) and 4 gallons of water. You might also add 4 teaspoons of tea tree oil, which kills dust mites and mold. Then just follow the instructions for using the machine.
Vitamin Advice
Q I know I should take a daily multivitamin/mineral pill, but the ones I've tried upset my stomach. What should I do?
A It's likely that you're reacting to the B vitamins or zinc in the supplement, particularly if you're taking it on an empty stomach, says David Grotto, a registered dietitian and director of the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Care in Chicago. Try taking it with food to see if that helps. The iron in a multi can cause nausea and constipation, even when taken with food, so check with your doctor to see if you really need it. If so, pick a formula that contains ferrous gluconate or ferrous fumarate, forms of iron that are more easily tolerated.
And make sure your supplement isn't overloaded with nutrients. Some include as much as 4,000 to 5,000 percent of the go...

text: June 2, 2007 Commencement Surprise: President Announces School Will Remain Westminster College Westminster College President Michael Bassis made a surprise announcement at the school's commencement exercises held earlier today that, following months of deliberation, the Board of Trustees has unanimously voted to retain the name Westminster College and not change to "Westminster University." The decision followed the recommendation President Bassis made to the Board of Trustees at their meeting on Friday. The announcement came as a welcome surprise to the 667 graduates gathered for commencement who had expressed a strong sentiment for the school to retain the name college. Bassis explained his decision, "Based on the research we did and the input we received, I believe that "college"—with all that term implies about an intensely personal, student-centered learning environment—most adequately captures Westminster's distinctive value and appeal. I recommended to the Board that we retain our status as a college. They agreed. And so, Westminster College we will remain." As to why Westminster underwent the process of exploring a possible name change, Bassis remarked, "Like many institutions with long histories, Westminster has evolved and changed in a number of important ways since its founding more than 132 years ago. As we have become a more complex and forward looking learning community, it has become more challenging to find the terminology that fully captures the experience that Westminster offers. In terms of categories, we clearly possess some characteristics of a college: a residential campus environment, small classes, personalized attention to our students. But we also exhibit some features of a university: graduate and professional programs, non-traditional and commuting students, and an emphasis on practical experience as well as theoretical knowledge; that is why we felt obligated to explore whether "college" or "university" best describes our campus today." Bassis had convened a task force to consider all facets of this issue earlier this year. In a split decision, the task force recently recommended that Westminster change its name to university. The task force noted that there were compelling arguments for both remaining college and for switching to university. Subsequent to the task force recommendation, the college held several open forums during which students, alumni, faculty and other members of the campus community were able to directly express their views directly to both the President and the Board. While Bassis ultimately overrode the recommendation of the task force, he felt the process the campus community engaged in was a positive one. Bob Frankenberg, chair of the college's Board of Trustees remarked, "We carefully considered this issue and participated in the dialogue with members of the Westminster community. The conversation that developed was extraordinarily helpful in illuminating the issues we were considering. I was particularly struck by the passion in the responses we received. The deep and sincere emotion that permeated the discussion reflected the profound attachment to Westminster that so many feel." "While many people agreed that neither "college" nor "university" adequately describes Westminster today, most indicated that they think about Westminster in terms of our unusually strong focus on students and their learning. Both alumni and current students spoke about how their experiences at Westminster profoundly transformed their sense of themselves and the world around them. They acknowledged that Westminster not only prepares students for successful careers, but it sets them on a quest to become lifelong learners. Almost without exception, they talked about how the Westminster experience turned them into active and engaged learners," concluded Bassis. Westminster is a nationally ranked college focused exclusively on student learning. With its graduate and undergraduate programs and its emphasis on both the liberal arts and professional studies, Westminster offers students an active approach to learning, a vibrant campus community and real world experiences. These are further enriched with the opportunities presented by our unique location, adjacent to the Rocky Mountains and to a vibrant urban center.

The famously curmudgeonly singer has given his blessing for a cover version of Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want to feature on the chains £6 million television advertising campaign.
The track will be performed by Slow Moving Millie, a relatively unknown musician and actor whose real name is Amelia Warner and was once briefly married to the Hollywood actor Colin Farrell.
The advert will first go out on Facebook and YouTube on Friday, followed by a series of prime time slots over the next five weeks, including a break during The X Factor on Saturday night.
Created by advertising agency Adam & Eve and directed by Dougal Wilson, it focuses on the joy of giving loved ones the perfect present at Christmas time.
The song will appear on 90, 60, 30 and 20-second versions of the advert, which features the slogan: John Lewis: for gifts you cant wait to give.
Craig Inglis, John Lewiss marketing director, said Morrissey was delighted that the chain was using the track, which was released as the B-side on The Smiths single William, It Was Really Nothing in 1984.
It wasnt a long and difficult road actually. It was relatively straightforward getting the rights, he said.
We approached the record company and Morrissey back in July, and they gave their approval. It is an iconic track from an iconic British band.
We know our audience holds The Smiths and bands from that era in high esteem.
He added: Its a magical feeling when you find that perfect present for someone; theres a great sense of anticipation from the moment you buy it to the moment you give the gift on the big day.
That feeling is exactly what weve tried to capture with this years Christmas campaign.
Ruth Paterson, head of marketing at Rough Trade, the record label which released most of The Smiths work, said she was entertained by the collaboration.
I do like the idea of a really good song by a really good band being played in Middle Englands living rooms, she told The Times.
Im sure that wasnt the songs intended purpose, but I think thats a good thing.
The deal is likely to provide a substantial pecuniary boost for Morrissey, 52, who is revered as one of the most influential rock lyricists of all time, first as frontman in The Smiths and then as a solo artists after they disbanded in 1987.
The retailers festive marketing campaigns are traditionally eagerly-awaited productions, with last years TV ad featuring Ellie Goulding singing Elton Johns Your Song.
Director Wilson has worked with John Lewis in the past, and was responsible for the retailers popular Never Knowingly Undersold advert in spring 2010, featuring the Billy Joel hit Always a Woman, performed by Fyfe Dangerfield from the Guillemots.

VERTIGO Overtakes CITIZEN KANE in Sight & Sound Poll of the Greatest Films of All Time
by Adam Chitwood Posted 322 days ago
In case you hadn't heard, we now have a new "Greatest Film of All Time." Every 10 years, BFI's Sight & Sound magazine polls a number of film experts to come up with a definitive list of the greatest films of all time. These experts include critics, academics, writers, and programmers, and this year 846 such people participated in the poll. Citizen Kane has topped the list every time since 1962, but this year Alfred Hitchcock's masterful Vertigo overtook Orson Wells' opus to be named the new "Greatest Film of All Time."
Sight & Sound also conducts a poll of filmmakers, and this year 358 directors (including the likes of Martin Scorsese, Quentin Tarantino, and Edgar Wright) yielded a significantly different Top 10 list with Yasujiro Ozu's 1953 pic Tokyo Story taking the top spot. Though lists of this sort are by definition subjective, these Top 10s are worth perusing and act as a great guide for film fans looking to deepen their cinematic palate. Hit the jump to take a look at both lists.
