This video features University of Wisconsin-Madison researcher John Magnuson, who studies the ecology of freshwater systems. He explains the difference between weather and climate using data on ice cover from Lake Mendota in Madison, WI. Analysis of the data indicates a long-term trend that can be connected to climate change.
In this activity, students use Google Earth to explore global temperature changes during a recent 50 - 58 year period. They also explore, analyze, and interpret climate patterns of 13 different cities, and analyze differences between weather and climate patterns.
In this activity, students utilize a set of photographs and a 30 minute video on weather to investigate extreme weather events. They are posed with a series of questions that ask them to identify conditions predictive of these events, and record them on a worksheet. Climate and weather concepts defined.
This is the first of three short videos showcasing the dramatic changes in Alaska's marine ecosystems. This introduction to the impacts of climate change in Alaska includes interviews with Alaska Natives, commentary by scientists, and footage from Alaska's Arctic.
In this video clip, Climate Central's Dr. Heidi Cullen explains that what we've known as "normals" for our climate, during the past decade, will very likely change soon. The new climate normal will provide key information for decisions we make in the future, ranging from what we plant, to what we pay for energy, and even to where we take a vacation.
This video is part of the Climate Science in a Nutshell video series. This short video looks at the effects of climate change happening right now around the globe, including: more extreme weather events, droughts, forest fires, land use changes, altered ranges of disease-carrying insects, and the loss of some agricultural products. It concludes with a discussion of the differences among weather, climate variability and climate change.
In this activity, students collect weather data over several days or weeks, graph temperature data, and compare the temperature data collected with long-term climate averages from where they live. Understanding the difference between weather and climate and interpreting local weather data are important first steps to understanding larger-scale global climate changes.
This video discusses the differences between climate and weather by defining and presenting examples of each. When presenting examples of weather, the video focuses on severe events and how meteorologists predict and study the weather using measurement, satellites, and radar. The climate focus is primarily on an overview of climate zones.
This activity develops student understanding of the relationship of weather and climate. Students use interview techniques to explore perceptions about local climate change among long-time residents of their community. Students then compare the results of their interviews to long term local temperature and precipitation records.
In this activity, students learn how to read, analyze, and construct climographs. These climographs are a graphic way of displaying monthly average temperature and precipitation. Students also practice matching climographs to various locations and summarize global-scale climate patterns revealed by comparing climographs.

Unlike many of the wooden toys we've received this year, this stackable duck family has a beautiful feel and quality to it. The pieces are pleasing to hold. There's lots to talk about as you play with this set with your toddler. The pieces are both color-coded and have numbers on them (something that your toddler does not need to focus on)...rather with younger toddlers talk about the colors, concepts like one more, taking one off, etc.
Taking the pieces on and off requires a great deal of dexerity. Depending on when you buy this toy, you may find that your toddler is more interested in filling and dumping the pieces into the box. Not to worry, pull the toy out again in a few weeks and you'll see how differently your child plays with this type of toy as they approach 18 months. While there are color "stories" here - we like the fact that there is no right or wrong way to play with the pieces on the four separate posts. Don't be restrained by the numbers.

If you haven't seen them already, here are Tommy Lee's penis pics from the infamous sex tape he made with Pamela Anderson. We decided to post these pics of Tommy Lee because he has a big penis, and we need to keep the balance of small penises to big big penises.
Tommy Lee's penis has become somewhat of a pop culture icon, used as a measuring stick for all celebrity penis that comes after it. Late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel was known to comment in regards to Tommy Lee's peen:
The vein on his penis, is bigger then my penis
The pics are stills from the sex tape Tommy Lee made with Pamela Anderson. We have included a shot of her giving Tommy lee a blowjob, because we felt that it would give context to the whole Tommy Lee penis pic situation.
We also added a pic of Tommy lee showing his limp dick to the crowd at a performance.

"No department has improved more over the last decade than USC's."
Which discipline could the speaker be describing? Economics? Video gaming? Immunology, or maybe stem cell medicine?
All good guesses of top USC programs — and all wrong.
In recent rankings of graduate philosophy departments across the country, USC Dornsife's School of Philosophy, in which scholars study the likes of Plato, Kant, Russell and Wittgenstein, has surged to No. 11, up from the 46th spot just a few years ago.
The quote above came from Brian Leiter, a University of Chicago professor who created the Philosophical Gourmet Report rankings, the most widely respected poll of the discipline.
The swift rise of USC Dornsife's philosophy school is due in part to a dozen new hires in the last decade, including many from Oxford University, one of the world's great centers of philosophy.
Most recently, senior philosophers Gabriel Uzquiano and Ralph Wedgwood, global leaders in their respective fields of philosophical logic and normative ethics (or for nonphilosophers, the study of "how things should be"), joined USC Dornsife. And John Hawthorne, who holds one of Oxford's most prestigious chairs in philosophy, will begin teaching part time in USC Dornsife this Fall.
"We're bringing in world-class faculty and building innovative programs around them," said Scott Soames, who came from Princeton University in 2004 and since 2007 has helped engineer USC Dornsife's meteoric rise as department chair. "This is just the beginning."

Nearly 5,500 miles away at Oxford, Uzquiano and Wedgwood said USC Dornsife's quick ascent caught their attention early on. After Soames' arrival, the department jumped to 23rd in the rankings.
"What struck me was the department was really ambitious," Uzquiano said. "I felt like I was moving to a department on an upswing, that would soon be among the best in the world."
Uzquiano and Wedgwood also said they were impressed by USC Dornsife's "inspired" choice to hire a number of promising young philosophers.
"Philosophers, of course, are addicted to debate and discussion, and it's good to have great colleagues to talk with," Wedgwood said.
While bringing in some of the world's best faculty, USC Dornsife also committed itself to transforming philosophy programs for undergraduate and graduate students.
Student enrollment in the department has doubled, due in large part to the now highly successful philosophy, politics and law (PPL) major for undergraduates, which fuses the critical-thinking skills bred in philosophers with the real-world applications of politics and law.
This year, 185 undergraduates are on track to depart USC Dornsife with the degree, up from 18 enrolled students when the major was initially offered just three years ago.
"It combines the three disciplines in a way that makes sense," said Andrei Marmor, professor of philosophy and Maurice Jones Jr. Professor of Law, who helped develop the PPL program. "[The major] combines the training in careful and critical thinking that is characteristic of philosophical analysis, with a broad range of moral and political dilemmas that we face in the world we live in."
The new major was the biggest draw to USC Dornsife for Weston Rowland '12, among the program's first graduates last year. Rowland is currently teaching English to elementary and middle school students in South Korea. He plans to attend law school this fall.
"If you take neuroscience [in college], and you decide you don't like neuroscience, you have a problem," Rowland said. "But if you take philosophy, politics and law, and you decide you don't like law, you can be a politician, and if you don't like philosophy, you can go be a teacher.
"You can go do anything you want because you're really prepared to think critically about any important problem."

Could Angels/White Sox swap Konerko/Matsui?
Both Paul Konerko and Hideki Matsui are headed towards free agency this off-season.
As Mark Gonzalez points out in his season wrapup, the White Sox got just 186 RBI from left-handed hitters this season (out of 710 total) and finding a productive left-handed bat to fit in their lineup -- maybe as a complementary piece batting fifth or sixth -- is a top priority this off-season.
Adam Dunn could be that guy -- if the White Sox can afford him. If not, Hideki Matsui might be a low-cost alternative for the Sox.
Meanwhile, the Angels' regard for Konerko is well-established. They went after him hard following the 2005 season when Konerko was a free agent. Sentiment led him to re-sign with the then-reigning World Series champs.
Konerko is five years older now and the Angels should have had their fill of signing aging sluggers (i.e. Matsui and Bobby Abreu). But if other things don't pan out (i.e. Carl Crawford), Konerko could become a short-term option. Maybe he could fit in a three-way triangle with Kendry Morales and Abreu, playing first base and DH.
Is this a Plan B the Angels should keep in mind?

It's OK: The Jonas Brothers Don't Think Much of Justin Bieber Either
"We're not perfect. I think there's things that public people don't know about. Now it's not that easy for people to get away with a lot of stuff without people finding out, right? …But also we never really had the interest in doing things like peeing in buckets. We try to be careful."
--What the Jonas Brothers (specifically Joe Jonas) said about their former "friend" or, at the very least, colleague, Justin Bieber and his bucket-peeing antics, and while they're not saying that they never got caught (ahem, on camera) with their pants down, nor did they pose with ball gags in their mouths, they're definitely saying that they stray far, far away from excreting bodily fluids all over the place and especially not in buckets that maintenance men have to dip their mops into.
When the JoBros look better than Justin Bieber it's a sad day in ... well, it's a day .. wait. No. Justin Bieber is even below the Jonas Brothers, OK?
WTG, guys!

Developing Leaders, The Ambassadors Program
Over the past 39 years, Americans for Indian Opportunity (AIO) has brought people together to discuss provoking issues and to work on complex problems. The Ambassadors Program, AIO's leadership initiative, and ILIS, AIO's facilitation process, were born through the collective widsom of Indigenous and non-indigenous peoples.
AIO continues to draw upon traditional Indigenous philosophies to foster value-based leadership, inspire stakeholder-driven solutions, and convene visionary leaders to probe contemporary issues and address the challenges of the new century. AIO seeks to create new avenues for international Indigenous interaction, and explore ways Indigenous peoples can influence globalization.
Indigenous peoples must be the primary participants inventing their own cultural solutions for meeting the challenges of the 21st century.

Employment Law
Employment Law Questions? Ask an Employment Lawyer.
Hello I am a licensed attorney here to help you with your question, please review my response and do not hesitate to ask for clarification
This is an unfortunate situation,
Nebraska is an at will state, and an employer can terminate any employee at anytime, except if it violates an employment contract, or is based upon an employees protected civil rights,
In your case, the termination is clearly unjustified,
however legal action will be difficult, unless you can show the actions of the employer were based upon your age, race, gender, or some other protected right,
even if in the policies they are using to show that I was irresponsible in regards XXXXX XXXXX license does not say that the license has to shop up on the DHHS website by midnight of the day of the deadline? And I have documentation that my license was never in lapse?
If the employer has a contract or policy with you that states you cannot be terminated without cause, you can sue them for a wrongful discharge, and at that point you can fight the license issue and win,
however, if you do not have a contract that states the above, in Nebraska you cannot sue an employer for a termination,
If they defame you to others, by claiming you violated your license requirements,
you can sue them for defamation,
In my employee counseling summary the behaviors that it states I showed were "tardiness, carelessness and reckless behavior" not the best adjectives that an RN would like describing them.
If they spread this to future employers or to others, you may have a strong defamation case,
So basically there really isn't anything that I can do? Even if this termination has an affect on my nursing license? I honestly am not sure how much they share with future employers I have worked for this organization since before I graduated with my RN. So the last place I worked before here was a restaurant......
If they try to defame you, or if you provide a negative reference, your only legal option is a defamation lawsuit,
In terms of challenging the termination, that is difficult in Nebraska, as it is an at will State, and the law allows an employer to terminate any employee for any reason
ok, the negative reference is one of the things I am worried about.
Well that just sucks.
You should hire an attorney now and have them send a Cease and Desist letter threatening a defamation lawsuit, if they state unsubstantiated information about you to future employers,
that would stop them,
I am not 100% sure at this time about an employer policy or contract about termination without just cause, however I do remember that there is a 90 probation period where I could have been dismissed with out cause, basically through out the new employee orientation period, but beyond that I am unsure.
You may want to ask HR or look into this matter,
if they have a policy that states employees can only be terminated for cause,
you can sue them for a wrongful termination
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask.
If satisfied please provide us with positive feedback, so we can receive credit.
Thank you I will do some checking into things.
Good luck,

As a foolproof method of birth control, intrauterine devices are unsurpassed. In fact, IUDs are 20 times more effective than oral contraceptive pills, according to a study in the New England Journal of Medicine. However, there's a catch: IUDs are difficult to put in and the procedure can lead to complications. But Tulane University alumnus Ben Cappiello has invented a solution to the problem.
While still in school, Cappiello, a Tulane biomedical engineering major, designed a device that makes it easier to insert an IUD. After graduating in 2010, he co-founded Bioceptive, a company that is developing and testing the insertion device before marketing it around the world.
In May, Bioceptive, headquartered in the New Orleans BioInnovation Center, announced that it had raised $385,000 in startup money from investors, including Tamara Kreinin, former executive director of women and population with the United Nations Foundation in Washington, D.C.
The current IUD insertion procedure requires a skilled healthcare practitioner, usually a specialist in obstetrics and gynecology, and employs up to five surgical instruments. Because of the multistep nature of the procedure, the IUD can end up being expelled or the uterus can be perforated, says Cappiello. Also, patients often experience pain during the insertion.
The device that Cappiello has invented allows for a gentler IUD insertion procedure. The Bioceptive device has an automatic sensing mechanism that replaces the current surgical tool used in measuring the depth of the uterus, while also incorporating a force-limiting mechanism. "It's impossible to perforate a uterus with this device," says Cappiello.
Cappiello and his Bioceptive associates, including co-founder S. K. Khurana and Stewart Davis, see a market for the device both in industrialized countries as well as developing nations.
"We want to make this so easy to do that any healthcare worker anywhere in the world can put in an IUD," he says.

Comments about Dell PowerEdge 2950 Dual Xeon Quad-Core E5430 2.66GHz 16GB 4x1TB DVD 2U Server w/Video & Dual GbLAN - No OS:
We purchased this to run as an internal CentOS WHM/cPanel dedicated server. 4 of the 6 drive bays had (1) TB drives in them. I removed them and installed (6) 2TB drives. The installed RAID controller let me setup an 8TB Raid 6 array! :) The 16GB Ram & Dual Xeon procs make CentOS, WHM & ownCloud scream! We're getting unbelieveable data transfer rates of 150-200mbs on the Raid 6 Array. It's now one of the fastest servers in our data room. And for fault tolerance, this box has two power supplies so if 1 fails the other will continue for uninterrupted performance. The 6 internal high-powered fans are kinda loud, so if you buy this make sure you have a server room, cabinet, or basement to run it in.Going to order 2 more of these next week!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Okay, guys and gals, I am designing an Access 2000 database to compile data from the "Special Thread for 50+ yo bicyclists".
I have had a lot of experience designing databases in the old Q&A Windows 3.1 and DOS (tells you how dated I am).
I have only designed one Access DB, and that was some years ago, using Access 1.0
So, I need one of you DB gurus to take a look at the DB I have designed.
I do not find Access to be very intuitive, and it also uses language that I am not familiar with, and for some reason typing a help query in the stupid little box NEVER gives me an answer I need, and the index is little better.
For example, I designed 3 separate entry pages off of the table I created, then I tried to link the pages so that it would automatically go from page 1 to page 2 to page 3 (This was easy and automatic in Q&A) A help search turned up nothing about linking pages, so I redesigned the whole thing on one page - I have about 35 fields or so - and it looks awfully crowded. I thought Access would link pages automatically and sequentially, as it all derives from the same table. I guess I thought wrong!
Also, I would like to have a main field which if the answer is "no" then you go on to the next field, but if the answer is "yes" you go to a separate group of applicable fields.
I.e, "Do you take supplements" - if the answer is "NO" then I would not want to see any more on the page; if the answer is "Yes" then I would like a list of supplements to chekc "YES" or "NO" - such as Glucosamine, Vitamin C, - you get the idea. Yet I can find no way to set this up. I can find no "IF" "THEN" operators
Anyone out there help me design. I would be pleased to email you what I have for your review. It is pretty basic right now.
Also, I need to design the queries - mean age, modal age, range, Std Dev, etc., and perhaps age of roadies v. age of mtn bikers, etc. Also, compilation of text lists - names of bike brands, etc.
Average annual mileage vs. years in biking v. age. Stuff like that.

First, I guess I should note that it is controversial that DA 7400 cranks use ISO taper at all, as I have seen many people say they are JIS. But I am pretty sure they are ISO based on reliable sources.
What I don't know is if there is any difference between the 7400, 7401, 7402, and 7410 cranks. Are they all the same? All ISO?
I am just wanting to make sure that I can swap cranks with someone and not have an issue.

Pierce Brosnan slams 'pathetic' Bond sexPierce Brosnan has branded James Bond sex scenes "pathetic" - and has urged producers to make them more explicit.
The handsome actor, who played 007 in four movies, claims the loves scenes need spicing up to keep fans interested.
Pierce, who has enjoyed on-screen romps with Teri Hatcher, Denise Richards and Halle Berry, moaned: "You're not even allowed to show a bloody nipple. It's pathetic. What Bond needs is a good, palpable killing sequence and a good sex scene - and it doesn't have to be graphic, you can use your imagination."
Pierce, who was recently dropped from the role, has also revealed that Halle
Berry was his favourite Bond girl - because she was in touch with her sexuality.
He explained to Britain's GQ magazine: "I think Halle is right up there. She is just a luscious girl with such a beautiful body and she's a good woman, too. She has a great sense of her own sexuality, so she knows it and she plays it."
Meanwhile, Pierce has also blasted Bond bosses for failing to give the suave spy any gritty storylines.
He said: "They're too scared to take him out of the bag too much or have a real dramatic moment."

Performing A Mopar Small Block Engine Swap - Double-Shot of GoWritten by on April 2, 2007 Double your power in a weekend
There's a well-known affliction that all gearheads suffer from, and scientists have finally started to study. it's called monofoottofloorpressuruos (Mono-foot-to-floor-pressurous). It's an ailment that affects the mind, forcing the afflicted to push their foot against the throttle pedal and into the carpeting of any vehicle they are driving in hopes of gaining more speed. It's a contagious ailment, especially when two or more people are involved while driving their cars on the same stretch of pavement at the same time.
Sometimes, however, the ailment is met with disappointment when there is no response from mashing said pedal to the floor. Such was the case with our Dart Sport we introduced in a previous issue. The woefully underpowered Slant Six was able to move the car, which made it a driver, but if you planned on any spirited driving, that thought was quickly erased from your mind when the light turned green, and you had to slowly ease the clutch out to get moving-a sad state of affairs for the Dart.
But fear not, this problem can be remedied with some elbow grease, and a shopping list of parts that can be had with simple phone calls. There's no big secret about what it takes to swap a V-8 in place where a six-cylinder used to reside. You can either shop the swap meets, find the required parts in your buddy's shed, or you can make a few phone calls to the manufacturer that have the parts you need.
But how hard is the swap? Well, it depends on how nice you want the finished job to look. If you never plan to open the hood at a cruise night, you won't clean or paint anything, then work-time will be short. But who doesn't want to show off their engine at a race or cruise night? So we decided to take the plunge and make the underhood of the Sport look better than the outside of the car-for now.
Follow along, and we'll show you what it took to make a terribly underpowered car finally get out of its own way.
Rock the cradle
You're probably wondering about that cool engine cradle for removing and installing the engine we used. You can get one from US Car Tool for $399. The K-frame stand comes with casters and is fully powdercoated in a wrinkle black finish. All K-frames have jig position holes in the bottom that were used by the factory jigs when the cars were assembled. The K-frame jig is designed to use those same holes.
The two uprights with 4-inch-long threaded studs are designed to move side-to-side to accommodate the various K-frame widths. Some K-frames have holes in the top and bottom plates; some only have holes in the bottom plates. If your K-frame does not have holes that pass through both top and bottom plates, use nuts threaded approximately 1 1/2-inch down the studs to hold washers. The washers will be the resting mounts for the K-frame.
Each K-frame stand is supplied with a pair of "L" brackets and 90-degree brackets. These brackets are adjustable. The rearmost L bracket is designed to hold up the transmission. The frontmost L bracket is designed as a third mount for the K-frame to steady it when the motor/transmission is not in place.

First thing needed was an engine. This 360 spent a couple years under the hood of our Valiant, and since it ran well, didn't smoke, or make noise, we figured we would clean it up and re-use it.After cleaning the engine, we gave it a good coat of rattle-can orange. Before we did, we taped over the intake-mating area, put the gaskets and intake in place, and outlined the intake on the gaskets and tape.Afterward, we cut out the tape and gaskets on the line, and made sure any exposed head surface was painted.After the intake and the valve covers were cleaned, they and the accessory items, such as the Flowtech headers and Pertronix Flame-Thrower distributor, were installed.In our case, the Sport was equipped with a floor-shifted, three-speed transmission. We scored a freebie from a friend, who gave us an aluminum-case OD unit. Luckily, the transmission came with linkage rods and a shifter mounting plate. We took the side cover off, checked it out, cleaned it up, and used it.Now we had to get the old engine and transmission out of the car. Since we had access to a lift, we were able to use a US Car Tools' engine dolly cart. This is a slick tool to raise the car up. Simply put the cradle under the engine and transmission, unhook everything, and raise the car. We literally had the engine and transmission out in an hour.We weren't sure what we would do with a running Slant Six, so we decided to put it on an online auction site and see what happened. When the bidding stopped, we had recouped 460 bucks of the money we spent on parts for the swap.The problem with removing the K-frame: the car was now immobile. For less than $20, we made these casters out of two-by-two angle iron and a pair of caster wheels.
We got an inexpensive sandblaster, bought 150 pounds of play sand, and started removing grease, paint, and surface rust.We don't have enough pages to show you everything we did prior to paint, but in a nutshell: sandblast, weld extra holes shut, smooth-weld holes, primer, and paint.If you are using the six-cylinder K-frame and conversion mounts, you will need to modify the factory frame mount.You will drill a new mounting hole per the instructions and remove the top of the frame mount-that's it.Once we got everything out of the car, we realized how bad our steering box really was. The shaft had about an 1/8-inch of play in and out, and the steering wheel turned about a half turn before the wheels would even move. We could have gone with a used box, but since Flaming River makes an all-new cast piece, we spent the money. This is a definite safety issue, so it was money well spent.To make the engine turn the transmission, we chose a Spec clutch. The clutch is a diaphragm style, and Spec offers different clamping pressures and clutch materials depending on your application. They are custom-built and shipped in a relatively short time.
When it came time for wiring, the same wires run the same items they did for the Slant Six; you might just have to make them longer or shorter. We decided to remove any wires not used. We used masking tape to temporarily "group" the wires while we routed them.You may also notice the absence of an ECU. The Pertronix billet distributor is a fully self-supporting unit, so no ECU is needed. This means another set of wires is not needed, which helps clean up the engine bay.The Slant Six radiator wasn't going to work. First, the inlet was on the wrong side, and it just doesn't have the capacity needed to cool a V-8. since the underhood was all cleaned and shiny, we decided to splurge and order an aluminum radiator. The Wizard unit fits like an O.E unit and is more than capable to cool the Sport's 360.Here's a detail we almost forgot-a V-8 throttle cable and brackets for the throttle cable. The cable came from Imperial Services, and the bracket is available from MagnumHP.com.Next, we needed a shifter. There are three ways to do this: you can buy a swap-meet shifter, install it, and hope it works; buy the swap-meet shifter and send it to Hurst for a rebuild; or buy a new complete unit from Hurst. Either of the latter two ideas will be the way to go, it just depends on whether you need a "new" shifter or a "like-new" shifter from Hurst. Those of you that like the Pistol Grip shifters found in E- and B-Bodies, can also get one for your A-Body. Just order one for a '71-'74 B-Body without a console.One thing we had to do (you might not), was replace the gas tank and fuel line. Before the swap, the filter got plugged quickly, so we decided to change the tank, the sending unit, the pickup, and the fuel line. This was the perfect time to upgrade the fuel line to a 3/8-inch size.There are more than a few exhaust companies building model-specific exhausts for V-8-powered A-Bodies, but the most economical kit we found is the universal dual kit from Flowmaster mufflers (PN 15936).Sure, you will need to cut some of the pipe, but it's universal, and you just replaced the engine, so the exhaust should be a snap.

European Stocks Rise to a Six-Month High; Bank Shares Lead Gains
European stocks advanced to a six-month high, with the Stoxx Europe 600 Index extending its best start to a year since 1998, as gauges of manufacturing increased from America to the euro area to China.
Banks and carmakers led gains. ICAP Plc jumped 7.7 percent after saying annual pretax profit will be at the "upper end" of the range of analysts' estimates. RWE AG climbed 4.9 percent after Morgan Stanley added the stock to its best ideas list.
The Stoxx 600 rose 2 percent to 259.51 at the close in London, its highest level since August. The benchmark gauge rallied 4 percent last month, the biggest January gain since 1998, as the U.S. economy maintained its recovery and speculation grew that European policy makers will contain the region's debt crisis.
"U.S. manufacturing data is key," said Guillaume Duchesne, an equity strategist at BGL BNP Paribas SA in Luxembourg. "Industrial activity is doing well. Jobs data at the end of the week will be important. As long as there are good economic surprises, that will support stocks."
The Institute for Supply Management's U.S. manufacturing index rose to 54.1 in January from 53.1 in December, the Tempe, Arizona-based group's data showed today. Fifty is the dividing line between growth and contraction, and the median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey called for an increase to 54.5.
China, Euro Area
Chinese manufacturing rose last month as the world's second-biggest economy withstood weaker exports driven by the euro-area debt crisis and a government-induced property slowdown. The official purchasing managers' index increased to 50.5 in January from 50.3 in December, exceeding the median estimate in a Bloomberg News survey for a reading below 50.
In the euro area, a gauge of manufacturing beat estimates in the first month of 2012. The Markit Economics final purchasing managers' index rose to 48.8 from 46.9 in the prior month. That surpassed a forecast for 48.7 by 27 economists in a Bloomberg News survey.
A U.K. manufacturing index jumped to an eight-month high in January and unexpectedly returned to growth after a quarter of contraction as production rebounded.
National benchmark indexes rose in 17 of the 18 western European markets. France's CAC 40 added 2.1 percent. The U.K.'s FTSE 100 climbed 1.9 percent and Germany's DAX jumped 2.4 percent.
Sweeter Greek Deal
Greek bondholders may get a sweetener tied to a revival in economic growth that would ease the impact of accepting a lower interest rate on new bonds, people with knowledge of the talks said.
Three out of 5 European companies on record are missing profit estimates, according to data compiled by Bloomberg News.
Siemens AG and Ericsson AB are among the 59 percent of Stoxx Europe 600 Index companies reporting earnings that fell short of forecasts during the current quarter, the data show. That's the worst ratio since Bloomberg started collating estimates in 2006, with 39 percent of companies missing projections in an average quarter.
Bank shares rose 3.8 percent for the best performance on the Stoxx 600. Banco Santander SA, Spain's biggest lender, advanced 3.6 percent to 6.16 euros. Santander remains Nomura's preferred Spanish bank, analysts wrote in a note. Nomura maintained its "underweight" position on the country's lenders. Credit Agricole SA, France's third-largest bank, rallied 7.4 percent to 5.06 euros.
RWE, Fortum
RWE, Germany's second-largest utility, added 4.9 percent to 30.68 euros. Morgan Stanley added the shares to its best ideas list, saying the company has a more focused disposal program.
Fortum Oyj, Finland's biggest utility, gained 6.8 percent to 17.94 euros. The company reported fourth-quarter net income of 421 million euros ($550 million), surpassing analyst estimates of 339 million euros.
BP Plc, Europe's second-biggest oil company, gained 2.6 percent to 483 pence.
ICAP jumped 7.7 percent to 362 pence. The world's largest broker of inter-bank transactions said pretax profit for the year ending March 31 will be at the "upper end" of the current range of analyst estimates of 336 million pounds ($528 million) to 358 million pounds. ICAP had said in November it expected full-year profit to be within analysts' projections at that time of 358 million pounds to 390 million pounds.
Infineon, Yara
Infineon Technologies AG advanced 5.6 percent to 7.37 euros after its operating profit fell less than analysts' projections. Profit in the fiscal first quarter ended Dec. 31 was 20 percent lower at 141 million euros compared to 177 million euros a year ago, as sales rose 2.6 percent to 946 million euros. Twelve analysts polled by Bloomberg had expected an average operating profit of 127 million euros and sales of 934 million euros.
Yara International ASA gained 4.4 percent to 246.50 kroner. The company bought 16 percent of Burrup Holdings Ltd. for $143 million, increasing its stake to 51 percent. Apache Energy has signed a deal with Yara for 49 percent of the company, Yara said.
Renault SA jumped 4.9 percent to 34.18 euros. Renault-Nissan 2011 global sales rose 10 percent to a record, driven by emerging markets and the U.S., the company said.
Sandvik AB lost 0.6 percent to 99.90 kronor after falling as much as 6.3 percent earlier today. The world's biggest maker of metal-cutting tools reported fourth-quarter profit that missed analysts' estimates as the company booked costs related to job cuts.
Net income fell to 731 million kronor ($107 million) from 2.09 billion kronor a year earlier, the company said. Ten analysts on average had estimated profit of 1.19 billion kronor in a Bloomberg News survey.

Matt Johnson's first feature, The Dirties, (Slamdance Best Narrative Feature winner) is gaining the kind of buzz that every film student dreams of. But more about film school later. Unapologetically confronting issues of high school bullying with a distinct visual style and pathos, and just the right balance of humor, this film will certainly provoke a discourse about accountability and violence.
I sat down with Canadian filmmaker Matt Johnson at the Locarno Film Festival where his film was included in the Concorso Cineasti del presente, to talk about the making of The Dirties, his filmmaking background, and more.
The Dirties Synopsis: Two best friends, Matt and Owen, a pair of misfit high-school students who love making and talking about movies, are the victims of systematic bullying at the hands of The Dirties, a group of classmates who constantly humiliate them. As the two boys start fantasizing about revenge, the film becomes a richly layered portrait of friendship confronted by school violence in all of its terrible permutations.
Directed by Matt Johnson. Written by Matt Johnson and Evan Morgan. Story by Josh Boles. Produced by Matthew Miller, Matt Johnson, Evan Morgan, and Jared Raab. Edited by Matt Johnson and Evan Morgan. Cinematography: Jared Raab.
Susan Kouguell: How did you get the idea for this movie?
Matt Johnson: The idea was to make a fake documentary. Like the psychopath in Man Bites Dog. It was my co-writer's idea -- me playing a crazy guy and how that could be funny. As it evolved, we put in things from our real lives -- myself and Evan -- many things from our childhood experiences, what we've seen, from our memories.
The big idea about doing a character-driven story about a violent young person came from Josh Boles, my friend, and he was kind of building from our web show, Nirvana the Band the Show, which is a lot like The Dirties but it's a purely comedic treatment example of the same type of stoner comedy show. In the fake documentary -- filming everything you do -- I like that cinematic grammar; I wanted to do that in a serious film.
SK: Bullying is finally being addressed more in the media. Why do you think others writing about this film call this movie "controversial"?
MJ: Subject matter and treatment of this subject matter. We made the film in late 2011. For us, no one was talking about it; school violence is not a pulpy subject as it is. We were dealing with feelings of Columbine when we were kids. The film is thought to be controversial because it's a humanizing portrait that North Americans like to villainize. In the news coverage about school shootings -- the North American media takes over and gives you that version, to give you the first 200 pages of that person's life as opposed to just the cover story.
We live in a culture where someone who behaves that way, no one would take seriously. We don't talk about that isolation; that type of pain. That's what's compelling with that type of character. You can't believe that he's being sincere. That was the impetus for making the film -- that tension of someone so open and so blind to the social fallout of doing something like this would put audiences in such an interesting place. You never think it could happen. You don't know in his mind if this is real or not.
What was your budget?
MJ: We were just out of film school. We had no money. The production budget was $10,000, including the ending where four of us flew to a small town in Canada. We only spent money on food and sometimes rented props, but we never paid for location or permits. It was not a union shoot. After the film was done and we won Park City we had to clear music rights and this was another $45,000 -- almost five times the budget.
How did you raise the money?
MJ: Out of pocket. We owned all the cameras from Nirvana The Band The Show. It was important to have total control, not just from a creative point of view and technical point of view, but owning the cameras and not having to rent and scramble, then you can relax on those issues.
SK: The Dirties has a distinct and often seamless editing style.
MJ: I learned this from Nirvana The Band The Show, which I edited it in my bedroom. Because of the shooting format -- one camera on me, one on Owen -- and everything being filmed constantly, there was so much freedom going inside and outside scenes. Because of the grammar of documentary format -- not abiding by master shots, the format lets you jump out of moments. You know right away if it's not working.
SK: There's a specific point of view of the camera in the 'present' narrative storyline.
How we shot it -- two cameramen become obsessed with Matt and think Matt is a genius. If you understand that it's Matt's movie, he's controlling
everything; that's where the footage is coming from.
SK: Filmmakers attempting to make a film within a film about the making of a film is often unsuccessful. Were you conscious of this when making the movie? How did you avoid this?
MJ: It's a trap many young filmmakers fall into. I don't know if we were conscious of that; we made our characters obsessed with movies and it was a thematic decision rather than a narrative one. We could still have film references and deal with movie as culture without having it drive the plot.
SK: A common question many aspiring screenwriters ask is: How many screenplay drafts did you write?
MJ: We wrote the script in one day. The ideas for scenes were on cue cards, and those ideas would change with what was happening. There was no dialogue ever except the last line I say to Owen: 'Owen, it's me.' We tried to get in the moment as much as we could. The scenes we shot at the high schools, we could do what we could, we had no control, we were 'students' being filmed.
SK: How much was ad lib?
MJ: The writing we do -- Josh, Evan, and myself -- is not a formal sitting down, talking about what the movie is going to be about, it's more what the nest is going to be. It's a risky way of shooting and you can wind up with nothing.
SK: Your characters' names in the film are Matt and Owen. Why did you decide to use your real names?
MJ: It's very difficult in a scene to constantly remember someone's character's name other than what their name is. The movie has to be as close to your own reality as possible so you can use as many lucky things as you can. Like with my mom in the film. My mom didn't know we were filming her. She's a mental health professional; she talked to me about victimization and sympathy my entire life, I knew she would talk to me. It's her.
SK: In the beginning of the film there are two boys making a film, which offered a powerful parallel to Matt and Owen's narrative. How did you find these boys?
MJ: The boys didn't know they were being filmed. (Before and after that moment I've never seen them again. Our producer took screen shots of them and went to public schools to find them and got releases. Their film is going to be on our DVD.) I was out there in the field and we had to test our microphone. It just so happened I saw these kids moving around with a video camera. When he saw me see him, I knew if I just bumped into him, he would want to put on a show. The kids do come off quite well. They're real, very much like Matt is.
Some people ask me the ethical question (especially when filming someone without their knowing) 'What's it being used for?' raises some problems and I agree. We have no intention -- it's our philosophy -- we have no intention to embarrass anyone. We want people to be the best version of themselves. I personally never felt guilt for having the kids in the film.
SK: What's your reaction to Werner Herzog stating in the Master Class (at the Locarno Festival) 'You should gain experience in life and I would advise everyone don't spend time in film schools. If you travel by foot for four months, it's better than four years in film school. Read. Read. It gives you different perspectives.'
MJ: I'm in grad school at Toronto's York University. I enrolled with Matt Miller because I like film school, and film students. This is an anti-film school movie. We do the things you shouldn't like using licensed music. Don't do that; it's a terrible idea. We actively went out and did those things and in that there is something.
He's right in terms of film school not giving you the experience you need to make films. He's talking about having a life, about having a voice. Everyone is struggling to find a voice. What you do get in film school is like-minded young people with a passion to do something; it's a struggle and everyone is trying to be a famous filmmaker. The friendships you make are invaluable. I agree with Herzog that you need to live a life. As an undergrad I learned by making and doing and figuring out what inspired me.
The true answer is -- you want both. I say go to film school and then walk for four months.
SK What's your next project?
MJ: Operation Avalanche is our next movie about guys assigned to the Apollo moon mission in the 1960s. It's The Dirties except much bigger. It's like Forrest Gump meets The Dirties. Kind of.
The Dirties will be released by Phase 4 and the Kevin Smith Movie Club in October.

Victor Garber To Guest Star On The Big C
By Kelly West 4 years ago comments
Its always nice to see a great actor join a great TV show. Such is the case for The Big C, which will feature a guest appearance by Victor Garber in its upcoming third season on Showtime.
Known to many for playing Sydney Bristows sometimes scary, mostly awesome dad Jack Bristow on Alias, among a host of other roles, the ultra-talented Garbers more recent appearances include Showtimes Web Therapy, as well as the voicing the part of Charlie in the short-lived ABC reboot of Charlies Angels. According to the Hollywood Reporter, we can expect to see Garber in the third season premiere of The Big C, which is set to premiere on Showtime on April 8th.
(Spoiler alert!)
The Reporter didnt have a lot of details on Garbers character, other than to say...
Details on the character are not particularly generous, but he'll be some sort of foil for Sean (John Benjamin Hickey) when an accidental phone call "leads to a harassing situation."
The Big C is a dramedy that star Laura Linney as a woman/wife/mother who is fighting cancer while the people closest to her are also trying to cope with her illness.
The Reporter goes on to state that The Big C showrunner Darlene Hunt says Season 3 picks up three weeks after the marathon scene, which closed out Season 2 with a giant cliffhanger. Is Paul (Cathys husband, played by Oliver Platt) alive? It was implied that he was at deaths door at the end of the second season, having suffered a heart attack and appearing among the deceased characters at the end of the marathon finish line. Darlene Hunt wouldnt say either way if Paul survives, but its likely well find out when the show picks up. In the meantime, Garber is just one more reason to look forward to the series return.

No. 1 Mustangs run over Wolverines, 56-20
No. 1 ranked Newell-Fonda brought its vaunted ground game to West Bend last Friday night and showed why they're ranked on top handing the WBM/GCB Wolverines a 56-20 loss.
The Eight-Man District 2 matchup marked the end of the regular season schedule for both schools. N-F entered this week's state playoffs unbeaten at 9-0 and sealed the district championship with their win over the Wolverines.
WBM/GCB, meanwhile, slipped to 6-4 overall, 5-2 in district play. They received the No. 4 seed in the first round of the playoffs with their fourth-place finish in the district.
The Mustangs rode the legs of running back Zak Sievers, who rushed 15 times for 213 yards and four touchdowns. Brady Bohe netted 97 yards on 12 carries and Jonathan Johnson had 69 yards on eight carries as N-F piled up 501 yards of offense, including 377 on the ground.
"This game unfolded not like we expected it go. We could not get our running game going," WBM/GCB head coach Pete Kapustynski said. "Newell-Fonda is a very solid football team. They have depth. I predict them to go all the way."
The Wolverines could generate only 66 rushing yards on the ground and finished with 181 passing yards. Quarterback Jesse Zinnel rushed nine times for 37 yards and completed 1 of 40 passes for 181 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.
The Mustangs took a 21-0 first quarter lead and led 30-14 at halftime. Dustin Johnson scored on a 20-yard pass reception from Zinnel and Nathan Grimm caught an eight-yard pass for a touchdown to account for the Wolverine scoring in the second quarter.
N-F added 20 points in the third quarter for a 50-14 lead entering the final period. The Wolverines' final score came in the fourth quarter on Nathan Grimm's two-yard touchdown run.
Grimm was the leading tackler with 15 stops while Johnson and Aaron Montag each had 10 stops.
"We have to get back to the basics of being able to run the football. When we get back to doing that effectively, then everything else will fall into place for our team. Defensively we have to be ready to stop big plays," Kapustynski said.
The Wolverines will focus this week on their first round playoff opponent, Marcus-Meriden-Cleghorn. Kickoff is at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 24 at Marcus.
The two schools met in West Bend back on Aug. 31 in a non-district contest, which saw MMC post a 38-32 victory. MMC went 9-0 overall and 6-0 to win their district and earn a No. 1 seed in the playoffs. The Wolverines' fourth-place finish in District 2 gave WBM/GCB a No. 4 seed in the opening round of the playoffs.
The winner of the first round playoff game advances to a second round game on Monday, Oct. 29, at a site to be determined, against the winner of the Remsen-Union at Laurens-Marathon contest.
"We're certainly very familiar with them, having met back on Aug. 31 at our place," Kapystynski said. "That was a difficult loss for us but we came back within six points. I feel a lot better this time around playing them."
"The key for us this week is staying focused and getting our running game established," Kapustynski said. "And that starts with winning the battle in the trenches and reading our keys."

City leaders find out what caused Kinston blackout
POSTED: 3:38 PM Jan 30 2013 UPDATED: 10:45 PM Jan 09 2013
A surge arrester failure was to blame for a blackout that affected much of downtown Kinston Wednesday night, the city manager said.
About 2,000 customers were left in the dark when the outage happened at about 7:30 p.m, said City Manager Tony Sears. Power had since been restored for the area.
City officials were working to figure out what caused the malfunction to the arrester, which was basically a surge protector for the power system, Sears said. Investigators were expected to figure out a cause by Thursday.

Let The Dancing With The Stars Season 16 Cast Rumors Begin
February 14, 2013 11:00 AM by Lisa Princ
As we all anxiously await the big reveal of who will be competing on the new season of Dancing With The Stars, the rumors are flying as to who may be cast on the show, and who has interest in doing the show. You may be pleasantly surprised by some of the rumored contestants!
Okay, so We've already learned that both Dina Lohan and Jerry Supiran want in this season on Dancing With The Stars, and one source told the New York Daily News that boxer Victor Ortiz has signed on to the show's new season. Now, as we inch closer to the big reveal by ABC (set to take place on GMA on 2/26), more and more names are being thrown into the mix. So, who could we possibly see on the new season?
Well for starters, Katie Holmes is rumored to be interested in doing the show. Reports claim that Katie and her daughter Suri are huge fans of the show, and we know how much Katie loves dance in general. One supposed source told The National Enquirer of Holmes' attempt to get on the series: "Katie figures if she doesn't manage to land a spot on the upcoming season, she'll try for the next." It could definitely be a good change for Katie.
As for other rumored cast members, US Weekly has reported that the current Bachelor, Sean Lowe will be signing on for the new season. Earlier this year, it was rumored that Emily Maynard would be cast this season, and spoiler king Reality Steve checked into those rumors and reported back claiming that nothing has been signed, but it is "likely" that Sean Lowe will be signing on.
One more for you – according to TMZ, Deena Cortese of MTV's Jersey Shore told them: "I've been trying to work on changing my image especially since I want to be casted on Dancing with the Stars," but of course this was amidst some sort of boob scandal…yeah, she's a wholesome choice.
As for Honey Boo Boo mama June Shannon, we're still not sure.
What do you think about these possibilities joining the new season of Dancing With The Stars? Who do you want to see on the show this season? We know you have an opinion and we want to hear it! Comment below to share your thoughts with us.

I would love to see an soap opera star or a star from the number drama NCIA.

February 14th, 2013 at 7:41 pm
I think if Honey Booboo's mom is on…they judges will pick on her bad…and I don't think she will take it very well. I mean Chaz Bono took it for a whiled..and then fired back…I think she will crumble and cry, which would be sad to look at…

OMG – Honey Boo Boo's mom on the show? I'm going to hurl and then turn the channel. So wrong.

Dina Lohan and Honey Boo Boo's mother will cause ratings to go way down…won't be watching !!

I would love to see Honey BooBoo's mom on DWTS. She has a great personality and would be highly entertaining!
Maureen Vogel Says:
February 15th, 2013 at 5:37 pm
I think all of the above stinks. I guess it is just too difficult to get the real stars. What a shame. It is a turnoff to see that the bottom of the barrel is being scraped to come up with contestants.
Maureen Vogel Says:
February 15th, 2013 at 5:40 pm
This show is so great, but without the big celebs it is going to go down real fast. Bachelor and Bachelorette stars all stink, Jersey Shore stinks, HOney Boo Boo, REALLY?????????? You guys have to got to get some big draws!! Sorry
Crystal Says:
February 16th, 2013 at 1:26 pm
Dina Lohan isn't a star…her daughter is. Well, sort of. Same with Honey Boo Boo's Mom, and that's just…well, wrong if I'd have to see her up there dancing. Plus her poor partner!! Deena from Jersey Shore is horrible too…who even knows who she is? Snooki or Pauly D or The Situation would be your options if you're hitting that show up, and them aren't great either. I had to look up Jerry Supiran to even see who he IS…Jaleel White was about the limit…that's waaaaay to far back. Where's your football player? Those are ALWAYS fun!!
Dene Says:
February 16th, 2013 at 7:35 pm
NONE of the above,,,,, I have never heard of any except Holmes and never watched her in anything.
I agree with b grogan, Would love to see some soap stars or drama actor's Would love to see Maurice Benard, from GH

I would love to see soap stars….. and I hate that they put so many reality stars on!!!! Honey boo boo s mother… REALLY???? Lindsey Lohans mother????? COme on!!!!!! The show must be extremely desperate!!!!!! I love the tv stars and the soap stars….. maybe a movie star! Then it really could be dancing with the STARS!!!!!!!!!
JMcMahon Says:
February 19th, 2013 at 1:54 pm
The show needs to get back to stars! Reality "stars" are not stars just people looking for an extended 15 minutes of fame. Melissa Rycroft did well last season but she was a dancer. Get the real stars and the athletes. Stop putting people on who have no business on the show like the Kardashians and Kate or the Playboy models. C'mon ABC you used to have more class.
DKnowles Says:
February 19th, 2013 at 7:51 pm
I agree with JMcMahan what has happened to this show. I did not watch not once last season because I think it wasn't interesting. Some couldn't dance the first time on and you brought them back! Until you actually get some real stars I will not be watching. Sorry but the truth hurts maybe its time to call it quits.
lana Says:
February 20th, 2013 at 10:09 am
OMG!!! let us fans help you pick some real stars…only good one so far as i see is Katie Holmes….realty stars are really NOT STARS!!!!
ABC you otta know that…..
Holly Says:
February 22nd, 2013 at 4:25 pm
How about putting some news people on…Katie Couric, Savanna Guthrie, Meredith Vierra, or Ellen DeGeneres, Rachel Ray, Giada Delaurentis,
Heidi Klum
Sherrill Says:

How to Debone a Trout
Three Methods:Using ScissorsUsing a KnifeCooking the Fish FirstCommunity Q&A
In our era of processed foods, once-common practices like deboning fish can be intimidating. Here are two ways to go about this process.
Method 1
Using Scissors
1Place the trout on a board with the belly facing you.
2Using a sharp fish-filleting knife, very carefully cut between the top layer of bones and the flesh. Continue working towards the spine.
3When you reach this point, turn the fish over and repeat the process. Once the bone is loose, using a pair of scissors, cut the spine loose both at the tail and head end.
Method 2
Using a Knife
1Hold fish on a cutting board, belly facing the ceiling.
2With a sharp knife, slice behind the gills until you connect with the spine. Do the same at the base of the tail fin.
3Flip the fish onto it's belly, and make two parallel slices on either side of the spine.
4Hook your index finger into the cut behind the trout's head, so that you are pulling the spine towards you.
5Slowly pull up and back.
6The spine, ribs and innards should slide out as a group.
Method 3
Cooking the Fish First
1For smaller trout that can be cooked whole it is sometimes easier to leave the bones in until after the fish is fully cooked.
2after gutting and cooking,simply lay the cooked fish out on its side with the tail facing you.
3lift the tail at a sharp angle slowly, being careful not to break the spine, while simultaneously pulling down on the meat of the bottom of the base of the tail.
4if done correctly the spine should pull away from the meat with the ribs still attached, pulling even small hairlike bones with it.
5turn the fish over and repeat the process with the other side of the fish.

- Method A is easier for someone who has never cleaned seafood before. However, Method B can be more efficient.
- Keep seafood refrigerated as soon as possible.

For far too long, the cause of universal education has taken a back seat to other great international movements for change. Now, for two new reasons that lie at the heart of UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moons launch of the Education First initiative, education has returned to its rightful place atop the global policy agenda.
First and foremost, young people have themselves become the biggest advocates of universal education for girls and boys. Refusing to remain silent while denied opportunity, young peopleparticularly girlshave launched one of the great civil-rights struggles of our time.
Few could remain unmoved by the brave fight of the young Pakistani girl Malala Yousafzai after the Taliban shot her in the head because she insisted on the right of young girls to an education. Few have failed to notice the massive public outpouring of support in Pakistan and elsewhere for the cause that she is championing.
Likewise, we have also seen in recent months the creation by schoolgirls in Bangladesh of child-marriage-free zones, aimed at defending the right of girls to stay in school instead of being married off as teenage brides against their will. In India, the Global March Against Child Labor, led by the childrens rights advocate Kailash Satyarthi, has rescued thousands of young boys and girls from a life of slavery in factories, workshops, and domestic service, and has ensured that they return to school.
These demonstrations by girls and boys demanding their right to education have made the fight for basic schooling impossible to ignore. Consequently, every government now feels under even greater pressure to deliver the second of the global Millennium Development Goals (achieve universal primary education) by the end of 2015.
But a second worldwide force also has propelled education to the centre of the policy agenda in most countries: the increased recognition of the importance of education by those who examine why countries succeed or fail. For years, academics have debated whether culture, institutions, ideology, or resources cause some countries to lag behind. Today, a growing number of writers, researchers, and policymakers see the crucial link between education and national economic success.
The deployment of human capital has become an important factor in explaining why some countries remain stuck in a middle-income trap and why others cannot break out of low-income status. And research assessing a countrys human capital now focuses on the quantity and quality of basic skills, qualified graduate manpower, and expertise in research

above: lipsticks, lipglass and nail polishes in Myth, Girl About Town, Russian Red and Snob.
Rebel in New York, Saint Germain in Seoul, Morange in Paris, Russian Red in Dubai – the must–have lip shades that M·A·C fans around the world reach for, and fall in love with, over and over again. Colours so globally gorgeous we worked them into 3-piece collections of go- everywhere lipstick, lipglass and nail lacquer trios in 7 classic palettes that are perfectly coordinated and regionally inspired. Wherever you are, tip and lip the scale in your fashion favour.
When you hear that your favorite lipsticks are being turned into lipglosses and nail polishes, there is only one acceptable response: HELL YES! Girl About Town and Russian red are bees-knees and I'm glad to have them for my tips (and gloss form because sometimes a girl doesn't want to deal with precise lipstick retouches).
One of the biggest trends to come out of the recent shows was matching nails to your lip color and M·A·C's Fashion Sets collection makes it one easy process. There are seven colors total available in lipstick, lipglass and nail polish forms. Below are the colors available in the North America collection.
Myth: Light neutral nude
Snob: Light neutral pink
Spice: Mid-tone neutral nude
Girl About Town: Bright blue fuchsia
Russian Red: Mid-tone neutral red
Rebel: Mid-tone cream plum
Chestnut: Rich chocolate brown
The collections are being released in store regionally SO if for Asia Pacific that's Impassioned, Saint Germain, Peachstock, Razzledazzler, Angel, Morange, and Ravishing. Europe and Africa is Morange, Spice, Myth, Rebel, Impassioned, Russian Red, and Saint Germain. Latin America and the Middle East, you get Please Me, Girl About Town, Pink Nouveau, Russian Red, Snob, Impassioned, and Morange. BUT if you're like me and want a Morange and Saint Germain lipgloss/nail lacquer, you can head online to purchase. God bless the internetz.

Wheat Beers

Wheat Beer, Weisse, Hefeweizen, Wit
Pair with: Bright, tangy goat's milk cheeses like Westfield Capri and buttery bloomy rinds like Nettle Meadow Kunik.
Wheat Beer, Weisse, Hefeweizen, Wit
Wheat Beer, Weisse, Hefeweizen, Wit
Pair with: Bright, tangy goat's milk cheeses like Westfield Capri and buttery bloomy rinds like Nettle Meadow Kunik.
Lighter bodied and delicate. Old World style generally offers more funk, New World more fruit.
Old World Pinot: Flavors of fresh cherries and raspberry balanced by a barnyard funk and high minerality. Sometimes has floral aromas, reminiscent of rose petal.
Pair with: Almost anything! Works with funky Frenchies Epoisses and Langres, or mild natural rinds like St. Nectaire.
New World Pinot: More sugary, with jam-like fruit, dried cherries, oak, and spice.
Pair with: Full, fatty flavors. Alpines, cheddars, and Manchego.
Typically bright and lemony, with clean citrus flavors. Can also have grassy and vegetal aromas (think green bell pepper).
Pair with: Soft, creamy goat milk cheeses, triple crèmes or mixed milk cheeses with a mineral edge, like Nettle Meadow Kunik or La Tur.
We love them all! Everything from light, crisp Provence style to deep and fruity Spanish Rosados. Don't be afraid to enjoy rosé year-round, but we like the summer staple best with refreshing, mild cheeses that are great in warm weather.
Pair with: Young chevres like Coupole and bloomy rinds like Moses Sleeper for the lighter stuff. A darker, fruitier rosé can stand up to a heavier cheese like nutty Pecorino Oro Antico. Sparkling rosé is a perfect match for Nettle Meadow Kunik.
Lorraine Lambiase and Sheila Flanagan have tended to their glorious farm in the Adirondack Mountains since 1990 - dozens of sheep, over 300 goats and a couple of llamas living off of the land and providing their milk to be turned into some of America's most incredible cheeses. Their signature cheese, Kunik, is a triple creme made from a blend of goat and cow's milk and is NOT to be missed!

This is good news to Juliani fans, as from next week the celebrated gospel rapper will be distributing his latest album
Mutua Matheka's Photo Featured on BBC
Budding photographer Mutua Matheka is not new to the limelight (pun intended). His photographic lens coupled with brilliant angles and timing have made him famous on the social network scape as the go-to-guy for excellent photography.
His star is shining so bright that the visual artist, an architect by profession by the way, was today featured on BBC's African Images of daily life. What an achievement.
