Five Reasons To Eat An Apple Every Day
- Your Diet – Apples are the perfect, portable snack: great tasting, energy-boosting, and free of fat.
- Your Heart – Research confirms it! The antioxidant phytonutrients found in apples help fight the damaging effects of LDL (bad) cholesterol.
- Your Digestion – Just one apple provides as much dietary fiber as a serving of bran cereal. (That's about one-fifth of the recommended daily intake of fiber.)
- Your Lungs – An apple a day strengthens lung function and can lower the incidence of lung cancer, as well.
- Your Bones – Apples contain the essential trace element, boron, which has been shown to strengthen bones – a good defense against osteoporosis.
Nutrition Facts About Apples
Virginia apples, pre-packaged in nature's own wrapper, are the perfect take-along foods for on-the-go teens and adults. With more than one-third of US adolescents overweight and with many more worried about it, the 80 calorie apple can be a delicious part of a nutritious weight control program.
Virginia apples contain no cholesterol, fat or sodium. They are high in complex carbohydrates and also contain Vitamin C and potassium with calcium, iron, carotenoids such as Vitamin A, thiamin, magnesium and phosphorus.
The homespun wisdom about apples is proving itself true in the lab. Not only are apples low in calories and high in fiber, but nutritionists and scientists are finding that apples can prevent health problems or at least reduce health risks our bodies face everyday. It's their preventative and curative properties that are capturing the spotlight in numerous studies around the world. Some of the studies have found:
- Antioxidant phytonutrients in apple juice help reduce cholesterol, especially LDL cholesterol (low-density lipoproteins or bad cholesterol), helping prevent cardiovascular disease.
- Antioxidant phytonutrients also help reduce the risk of heart disease and Phytonutrients in apples slow the growth of colon cancer and liver cancer in cells
- Phytonutrients in apples lower the risk of thrombotic stroke.
- Flavonoids, especially the flavonoid, quercetin, found in apples, appear to reduce the risk of lung cancer. Some studies suggest they cut the risk of lung cancer in half.
- Apples appear to improve lung function , in general, because they contain antioxidants.
- Apples help strengthen bones.
- People with diets high in flavonoids, such as those found in apples, are 20% less likely to develop cancer.
- Apples are high in fiber. About 80% of the fiber in apples is soluble fiber which reduces cholesterol. The remaining 20% is insoluble fiber which may help prevent cancers.
- Potassium, which is found in apples, is important in regulating blood pressure.
One Great Little Food
Mother Nature was at her creative best when she came up with apples. They've got it all: taste, looks, and nutritional aspects that just won't quit.
- Apples have no fat, cholesterol or sodium. Compare those stats to a bag of potato chips!
- An average apple contains only 80 calories. Compare that bottom line count to a piece of cake!
- Apples have five grams of fiber, 20% of the daily recommended fiber needs. That's more than most cereals!
- Apples contain vitamins A, B1, B2, C, and Niacin; plus nutrients, Phosphorous Magnesium, Iron and Potassium. Apples are their own health food store!
- Applesauce is a fat free substitute when cooking and can be used in place of oil or shortening. In addition to being health, applesauce makes baked goods taste moist.
- When eaten as a snack, apples suppress hunger longer than junk foods and empty calories they contain. Apples are a great choice when dieting and trying to stave off hunger.

On The Radio
All UC Santa Barbara basketball games are broadcast live in Santa Barbara on AM 990 KTMS and will stream live online by clicking here. Josh Suchon is the voice of the Gauchos, performing the play-by-play, while former Los Angeles Lakers and UCSB star Don Ford will handle the color commentary. On select road games, much to the chagrin of the listening audience, yours truly, Matt Hurst, will provide color commentary.
The Opponents
vs. Long Beach State, 2/24
The Gauchos defeated Long Beach, 70-43 in the first meeting this season on Dec. 30. That dropped the 49ers to 2-12 at the time. Since then, LBSU has been one of the hottest conference teams. Long Beach State has won five of seven and is led by Brandi Henton's 14.8 points per game and Courtney Jacob's 14.5 points per game.
vs. Cal State Northridge, 2/26
Saturday's regular-season finale will have Cal State Northridge, who is currently tied for the eighth and final spot in the Big West. Jasmine Erving leads the Matadors with 15.3 points and 6.9 rebounds per game. CSUN is coached by Jason Flowers, who is in first season with the program.
Playoff Scenarios
With a victory over Long Beach State on Thursday or a UC Irvine loss (the Anteaters play at Pacific on Thursday evening), UC Santa Barbara will clinch home court advantage in the first round of the Big West Tournament on March 8. In a new format this season the top four teams will host games on that Tuesday before the winning teams advance for the next two rounds of the Big West Tournament at the Honda Center.
If You're Not First, You're Last
UCSB is just one game behind Cal Poly in the standings with a potential showdown for the regular-season title on the horizon. Cal Poly plays the same teams the Gauchos do this week and the Blue-Green rivals meet on Saturday, March 5 in San Luis Obispo, possibly for first place in the final game of the regular season.
Four Sure
UC Santa Barbara has equaled its longest winning streak of the season at four games (also accomplished Dec. 5-18). It is tied for the fourth-longest winning streak of Lindsay Gottlieb's tenure at UCSB. The longest came in Gottlieb's first season on the bench when the Gauchos rattled off 10 straight wins.
Double-Digit Fever
With a chance to win its 10th game of the Big West season this week, the Gauchos could continue their impressive run through the conference. In 19 of the past 20 seasons UCSB has won double-digit conference games. In fact, the Gauchos have finished Big West play above .500 for each of the past 20 seasons.
Biggest in the Big West
To go along with the above note, the Gauchos have dominated the conference for more than a decade. Since the 1995-96 season, UCSB is 223-30 (.881) in Big West games.
Valentine's Day
Senior Mekia Valentine notched her second Big West Player of the Week award this season after a pair of stellar performances last week. Valentine, who has 11 double-doubles this season and three in a row, averaged 12.0 points, 16.5 rebounds and 6.0 blocked shots per game last week. The Greensboro, N.C. native also grabbed the Player of the Week award in late November after her triple-double vs. Northern Colorado. It is the second time in three weeks a Gaucho has claimed the award after Emilie Johnson won the award on Feb. 7.
A Palindrome of Points
Mekia Valentine has scored 280 points this season, giving her 1,001 in her career between Wake Forest and UCSB. Unfortunately she is not a member of UCSB's 1,000-point club as not all of her buckets came as a Gaucho (she scored 351 points at Wake). The next likely member to join the 22-person 1,000-point club is Emilie Johnson, who has scored 977 total points in her Gaucho career.
Double Dippers
Mekia Valentine is averaging 10.7 rebounds per game, giving her the chance to become the first Gaucho since Erika Kienast in 1991-92 to average double figures in rebounds. But let's not stop there. Valentine has the chance to become the first UCSB player since Kienast in that season to average a double-double over a season. Valentine is scoring 10.7 points per game, second-most on the team.
Blocking Through the Big West
Mekia Valentine's career block total of 220 swats moved her into ninth place in Big West history. Valentine had recorded 100 total blocks this year, becoming just the fifth Big West player to post two 100-block seasons in conference history.
Mekia's Block Party
Mekia Valentine leads the Big West with her 3.85 blocked shots per game and ranks third in the nation. Valentine is second all-time in career blocked shots and became just the second Gaucho to reach 200 career blocked shots. Currently, her 100 blocks this season are second-most in school single-season history (behind her 120 set last year). Valentine trails only Lindsay Taylor (2000-04) by 23 swats for the most all-time in school history.
Swat Team
This year's Gaucho squad has blocked 130 shots, already placing them fourth all-time in school history. As a team, the Gauchos are averaging 5.0 blocked shots per game, the best mark among Big West schools - UC Riverside is next with 4.64 per game - and 21st in the nation. Last season UCSB finished sixth in the nation with an average of 6.3 swats per game and set a school record with 202 swats.
Tenacious D
As a team, UC Santa Barbara is holding opponents to a 35.2% shooting clip, the best mark in the Big West and 22nd-best in the nation. UCSB is also allowing teams to score just 58.4 points per game, which is the lowest in the Big West and 77th in the country. In 12 of the Gauchos' games, the team has held an opponent under 35% from the floor.
Gottlieb's Legacy: Defense
The fact that the Gauchos are one of the nation's preeminent defensive teams shouldn't be a shock because UCSB has been among the nation's best in the Lindsay Gottlieb era. In each of the past two seasons, UCSB has led the Big West in opponent's field goal percentage. Last season the squad ranked 31st in the nation with its 36.3% and in 2008-09 UCSB ranked eighth in the country with a 34.6% clip.
The Heat Will Rock You
UC Santa Barbara leads the Big West in field goal percentage with a 42.9% clip. What's interesting about that is the Gauchos were at the bottom of the conference earlier this season with a 35.0% overall shooting percentage. UCSB's current field goal percentage ranks the team 42nd in the nation.
So You Know ...
The last time a Gaucho squad led the Big West in both field goal percentage and field goal percentage defense was the 2003-04 squad which hit 46.0% of its shots and limited opponents to a 35.9% shooting clip.
We're a Boarding School
Santa Barbara is averaging a conference-leading 40.5 rebounds per game, which leads the Big West. The Gauchos hold a +5.0 rebounding margin, which also is tops among conference schools and 46th in the nation. It's largely due to Mekia Valentine and Sweets Underwood, who rank first and fourth, respectively, in the Big West with averages of 10.7 rebounds and 7.1 rebounds per game.
RPI Report
In the most recent release of the Ratings Percentage Index by the NCAA, the Gauchos are first amongst Big West schools with a 111 RPI ranking. Followed closely behind is UC Riverside (No. 117) and UC Davis (No. 121). Long Beach State has a RPI of 302 and Cal State Northridge stands at 312.
Sixty is Nifty
When scoring at least 60 points, the Gauchos are 15-3 this season.
The Lindsay Gottlieb File
Lindsay Gottlieb is in her third season as the Gauchos' head coach, and she is just the fourth head coach in UCSB women's basketball history. Last season Gottlieb guided the Gauchos to wins in seven of the squad's last eight games, taking a team that finished 9-7 in the Big West to the conference tournament's semifinals, keeping alive a streak of 20 years that UCSB had finished Big West play with a record above .500. In her first season at the helm, Gottlieb led the team to a 22-10 overall mark (15-1 in the Big West) and the Big West regular-season and tournament championships. Named the Big West Coach of the Year, Gottlieb became the first coach in Gaucho history to win at least 20 games and the Coach of the Year award in her first season - and one of only seven coaches nationwide to do so. Gottlieb led the Gauchos to their 14th consecutive postseason appearance and the team won 20 games for the 12th time in the past 14 years. In her first two seasons with the program, Gottlieb has guided the Gauchos to national prominence, leading the conference in field goal percentage defense both years while having her team set a school record in free throw percentage (08-09) and blocked shots in a season (09-10).. No stranger to success, Gottlieb was formerly the associate head coach at Cal, helping the team to a 68-28 (.708) overall mark in her time there. Prior to that, Gottlieb was an assistant at the University of Richmond, where she helped the Spiders to three straight 20-win seasons.
The Gaucho Fund, launched as part of the Dare to Be Great strategic plan, is UCSB Athletics' annual giving program to provide vital funding support for scholarships, academic success and leadership development for Gaucho student-athletes. The Gaucho Fund is the anchor to the Dare to Be Great campaign.
GKids is the official kids club of UCSB Athletics. Members receive a free GKids t-shirt, free admittance to tons of Gaucho games, opportunities to be ball boys and girls at games, a special birthday greeting from Olie (the GKids mascot) and much, much more!

Why Obama
The Republican party isn't what it used to be. Our leaders and our most vocal activists have written moderates out of the party and have refused to work with the other side, to the detriment of the nation. Center-right presidents such as Reagan, Bush Sr., Ford, Nixon and Eisenhower would have no chance being nominated today.
Unfortunately, Mitt Romney has not proven to be able to stand up to our party's most extreme elements. Instead, he has fallen for the "one-size-fits-all" mentality that tax cuts for the already-wealthy will solve all of our problems, and has no workable plans to solve the challenges we face.
President Obama has shown himself to be a common-sense centrist. He has cut taxes when necessary, has taken steps to protect the environment, and has aggressively pursued Islamic extremists who threaten America. Most notably, he has reformed our healthcare system by signing a Republican-inspired healthcare plan into law. In most other points in our party's history, Obama would fit in well as a Republican.

Republican for 30 Years, But Voting for Obama
As a registered Republican for over 30 years now, I thought I'd share my thoughts.
A Military Retiree Against Republican Extremism
I've been a Republican for nearly fifty years, since I was first able to vote. But most of the GOP of today is alien to the principles of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower, and it has taken on a tone that is even alien to the principles of my Christian faith. Wonderful public servants like Dick Lugar and Olympia Snowe have been driven from our party, and the formerly broad tent of our party is becoming exclusivist and even a Taliban-like enforcer of ideological extremism.
I No Longer Recognize My Party
As a registered Republican I fear I must confess that I no longer recognize the party that I grew up with in Oregon. I voted for Mark Hatfield, Tom McCall and other Republicans who found enough common ground with Democrats to govern. Now I watch in dismay as those in my party boast that their primary objective is to defeat the President. Not to govern. Not to bring together a sense of responsibility and willingness to compromise to solve problems we face. Such as the budget. Such as bridges, roads and our electric grid that need maintenance and upgrading, which actually costs money.

Scooper necesitaba un nuevo diseño de papelería y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 101 diseños de 28 diseñadores freelance.
Climatech is a mechanical services contracting and engineering company. We specialize in designing and installing air conditioning, ventilation and building management systems (BMS) for commercial and large scale high rise residential buildings. Our core work is shopping centres (primarily for Westfield) and commercial office towers. We also do large scale residential works, mainly highrise unit developments.
We are primarily a contractor to builders (for example: Multiplex, Westfield Design and Construct, Baulderstone, Watpac and John Holland. Basically, a builder will tender to construct a project (commercial office tower, shopping centre etc) and Climatech will subcontract to the builder to construct the mechanical services component of the project.
Climatech has been trading since 1999-2000. It's grown quickly from a 1 man operation to approx 35 direct employees and a large number of sub-contractors.
Our target audience is primarily building/construction companies and property trusts (ie large companies that own office towers and shopping centres). We are a medium sized company that is now competing with the largest companies in our sector. As a result, we need to polish our image and put forward a more slick, professional and modern look. Part of this process is cleaning up our external correspondence.
I require a card that stands out from the pack, without being gimmicky or too flashy. Tough ask, but I'm sure you guys are up to the challenge.
I have attached some examples of cards that I like. Please dont feel restricted by these designs. They are just a sample to give you some guidance and get started.
Very little thought has gone into branding/marketing up to this point. We have a new logo (attached) which we now need to incorporate into business cards, letterhead, emails, with compliments slips, envelopes etc.
We want our business cards and stationary to be striking but not too crowded and complex. Please keep the fonts modern and clean and easy to read.
We require: business cards, letterhead, powerpoint slide template (optional), document cover page (optional) (for expression of interest and tender proposals).
Info to be included on business card:
Company Name: Climatech
Employee Name: Joel De Stoop
Title/Position: Business Development Manager,
Address: 100 Queen St Beaconsfield, NSW 2015,
Mobile: 0416 111 877,
Ph: (+612) 9698 0033,
Fax: (+612) 9699 8499,
Regarding colours: predominatly we want to stay with the blue of the logo, but feel free to experiment with other strong colours too. I will provide plenty of feedback to keep you on track.
Bus' card to be double sided. Back side will include the logo and company name and the words:
Play around with shape. rounded edges etc. More options the better.
If you feel you need more feedback in the course of this competition, dont be shy. Get vocal. I want this done right, so I'm happy to give as much feedback as needed.

Firefox responds to fake certificate issue
2 comments:
My Firefox 6.0.2 installation is compromised and I can't believe it is only me but I only see reference to DigiNotar.
There are 10 certificates in my Firefox Certificate Manager that I have not added and I have tried to delete repeatedly. They purport to be issues by "UTN USERFirst Hardware Root CA, "http://www.usertrust.com".
They are for the following domains
login.yahoo.com (three certs)
I am a qualified network security engineer (CCSP) with 10 years experience. I my opinion this represents an immediate threat to anyone trying to log on to domains above as they are susceptible to a man in the middle attack and compromise of their privacy. In the Middle East this could be life threatening. In the medium term this represents a very serious threat to e-commerce. Other browsers Internet Explorer 9, Chrome V14... show the certificates disabled (worryingly I can't seem to manage the certificates on Safari!).
I am posting this to raise awareness
- 19 September 2011 at 17:30
You are wrong. These certificates are not trusted. They are added purportedly to mitigate the threat.

Back in December 7th, we managed to get all the piping done for re-imaging pandas and assigning dummy jobs to them (see "B2G test jobs running on panda boards on the Cedar branch" post for details).
Last week, after I came back from holidays, I was pleased to see that one of the last blocking bugs had been solved (bug 820617 - Add a hook to make NetworkManager not manage offline status and use it in Marionette for B2G CI) and I could now try to run the tests.
Last Friday, we landed the code to actually run the tests [2]. This is simply run with a mozharness script like this:
At that point in time we stopped running dummy jobs and started running tests for the first time./tools/buildbot/bin/python scripts/scripts/b2g_panda.py --cfg b2g/panda_releng.py
Since then, then test jobs have been failing but we are working on the last few bugs to get them to be green. See bug bug 829053 (Gaia UI tests failing with JavascriptException: TypeError: settings is null) if you're curious.
Thirty five fixed dependent bugs later (and 2 bugs left to be fixed) I can say that it has been a great joint project and I have personally learned a lot through it.
It would have great to have completed it a while ago but too many difficulties and code problems were found.
I hope to write to you soon once the tests go green and we start running them every b2g branch.

It may work out that the Avalanche can keep three very good centers beyond this season in Paul Stastny, Matt Duchene and Nathan MacKinnon. But most everyone believes one of them will have to be traded before too long, and odds are that player will be Stastny.
It may be an uncomfortable topic for everyone around the dressing room, but it is reality. There are only so many minutes to go around for a team's top forwards, and anyone out of the top six more often than not stays slotted in a utility role.
Right now, the Avs have a 22-year-old center in Duchene who just signed a five-year, $30 million contract extension, and an 18-year-old No. 1 draft pick in MacKinnon who could be a superstar. They have a fourth-line center, John Mitchell, who probably deserves to be moved up another level.
Stastny, 27, is in the last year of his contract, which pays him $6.6 million this year, and is a potential unrestricted free agent. If the Avs sign Stastny to a new contract, that means Duchene and MacKinnon probably play fewer minutes and maybe see some of their growth stunted. If Stastny re-signs, he knows he probably is destined for fewer minutes to accommodate the younger players, and his growth is stunted as well.
If Stastny were to resign himself to being a third-line center and could be happy with that, then maybe there's still hope for him here. But he's too young and talented to accept that role. He shouldn't want to just be a third-line center.
The other part of the situation is that the Avs need help on defense, and Stastny would figure to be their best bargaining chip to get it. Some team almost certainly would give up a nice D-man or a top draft choice in a trade.
How well the Avs perform in the first two-thirds of the season is almost certain to determine what happens to Stastny. If the Avs are out of playoff contention, he becomes the perfect rental sell-off to a contender. If the Avs are in the playoff race, odds would be higher Stastny stays, but perhaps not too much. Maybe the Avs would feel an imported defenseman, maybe even a one-year rental, would be the missing piece to a possible strong playoff run and would use Stastny as the bargaining chip again.
The Avs got off to a great start Wednesday night against Anaheim, but for Stastny, the numbers were not great. He did not record a point in the 6-1 win and got only one shot on net. He also took two penalties, the second of which caused coach Patrick Roy to shake his head in disgust. Stastny wound up getting just 13:38 of playing time, below that of MacKinnon (15:31) and Duchene (17:50). MacKinnon wowed everyone with his talent.
The Avs probably worry just how well MacKinnon will fit into the league at such a young age. But the more he plays as he did in the season opener, the more the Avs won't feel the need to hedge their bets with a veteran such as Stastny ahead of him.
Stastny has been treated well by the Avs, and he has been a good soldier throughout lots of upheaval around him in recent years. His work ethic is beyond reproach. But business is business, and the Avs have to make a cost-benefit decision on his future.
The Avs don't have to worry about any of this right now. But the clock is ticking on a tough decision.

During her visit to Mumbai today, the Duchess of Cornwall met an enterprising group of mothers who began their own businesses of selling scavenged bits to make into baubles.
When she arrived, the Duchess was welcomed in traditional Indian fashion. She was given a garland of flowers and a vermilion tika was placed on her forehead.
The tour today had the Duchess view a presentation by the Vandana Foundation Micro-Finance Project. The Project aids some of Mumbai's poorest women with free or low cost loans to fund their startup businesses.
"Many of these women are hugely vulnerable and make no mistake there is a huge stigma here about them going out of the house to work, let alone start their own businesses. Each of them is an inspiration," CEO of the Project, Saumya Roy said via The Telegraph.
Living on Shivajinagar, the largest rubbish dump in Mumbai, is Lila Manohar Chauhan. The Duchess met with the 59 year old who labours every day from dawn until dusk collecting scrap metal and bits of rubbish. Chauhan then sells what she collects daily to support her unemployed husband, son, daughter in law and their three children. She makes around 200 rupee a day the equivalent of £2.
Known for some of the poorest slums in the world, the grandmother of three goes to the rubbish heap daily, earning enough to be able to pay for her grandchildren to attend a private school. "I want them to have a good education and a better life," Chauhan told the translator.
Chauhan was asked if her husband, who is unemployed, greets her with a cup of tea when she returns each day, Chauhan rolled her eyes as a reply.
Camilla then met a young widow who was cast aside by her late husband's family. 21 year old Pooja Sachin Bhagat's husband committed suicide along with many of the approximately 7,000 cotton farmers who did the same due to the complications in the cotton business.
Left with two small children and living with a relative, Bhagat is making ends met by selling nail polish, bracelets and makeup earning around 500 rupees, about £5, to support herself and her two children. "My in-laws are now very jealous that I can support us all," commented Bhagat.
Browsing the stalls, the Camilla purchased gifts for Prince Charles and her family. She picked up some children's clothes, embroidered jackets, sweets, and a belt for Charles.
"Sorry I just can't resist, these things are so lovely. So beautifully made," she said as she browsed the various stands.
"What would we do without the women," she commented walking around the women's displays.
The women all wanted to give gifts to Camilla from their stalls; she would not accept and insisted on paying, "No I wouldn't dream of it. I must insist," she said.
Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall will end their Indian trip on 14 November, Charles' 65th Birthday, to leave for Sri Lanka. Charles will attend the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting that he will be hosting on behalf of the Queen.

Chickens crammed into wire cages next to the rotting carcasses of other chickens. The floor of a barn coated with flies. Hens with their heads jammed between cages and feeding machines.
The Humane Society of the U.S. released a video last year depicting those conditions at what it said was Kreider Farms in Manheim, Lancaster County.
There was no criminal investigation. The owner of Kreider Farms, the largest egg supplier in the state, denied the charges and questioned the authenticity of the video. Later, state inspectors said that the Manheim farm had met standards for agricultural facilities in previous years.
A recently proposed Pennsylvania bill would make it a crime to photograph, videotape or audiotape activities on farms without the permission of the owner. The bill would limit information to the public about food safety, animal cruelty and environmental issues, according to its critics.
Some opponents say such bills also limit gathering information and photos of natural gas drilling, much of which occurs on agricultural land.
"This bill has nothing to do with gas and oil and everything to do with cows and pigs," said House Bill 683 co-sponsor Rep. Carl Walker Metzgar, R-Somerset/Bedford.
Sponsors, who come from farm-rich counties, said the bill is about protecting family-owned and corporate farms.
However, opponents of the bill see it differently.
"It speaks volumes that this industry wants to make it a crime to merely take a photo of abusive, unsanitary or otherwise unethical activity," said Matthew Dominguez, a public policy manager for the Humane Society.
"There has to be a certain degree of privacy when you own a farm," said Rep. Gary Haluska, D-Cambria, the primary sponsor of the bill.
The bill, introduced in February, is still in committee.
A spokesman for the Pennsylvania Farm Bureau said the group hasn't yet taken a stand on it.
These "anti-whistleblower" bills — so-called because they make it a crime for an employee to report about wrongdoing by farm owners — have popped up throughout the nation. In some of the states there have been recent investigations of animal cruelty. And the environmental impact of Pennsylvania's drilling industry has been widely covered.
Dubbed ag-gag legislation, the bills have passed in Iowa, Utah and Missouri.
Because the bills seek to criminalize whistleblowing, animal rights activists and fracking opponents said they create a chilling effect on what the public learns about animal cruelty, unsafe working conditions and environmental issues.
"The last thing drillers want are YouTube videos," said Dory Hippauf, who writes the 'No Fracking Way' blog about Marcellus Shale drilling in northeastern Pennsylvania.
A spokesman for the Marcellus Shale Coalition said drilling companies do not deny "credentialed journalists" the ability to photograph or videotape drilling.
"I've been on dozens of drill tours with credible journalists to explain the drilling process," said the coalition's Patrick Creighton.
Steve Todd, an environmental engineer and citizen blogger in Dauphin County, said: "Pennsylvania legislation has been crafted to allow these big factory farms and now fracking (drillers) to just do what they want." Todd started an online petition against the bill.
Dominguez points to the Humane Society's investigation into a California slaughterhouse as an example of the kind of wrongdoing that can be exposed.
The 2008 undercover investigation into a Chino, Calif., slaughterhouse showed downer cows, those too weak or sick to stand, being repeatedly shocked with electric prods, rolled over with forklifts and having pressurized water shot up their noses. The company was found to be a major supplier of meat from sickened cows to school lunch programs.
The investigation resulted in a civil lawsuit brought by the Humane Society and the largest beef recall in U.S. history.
Had a bill like this one existed in California, Dominguez said, the conditions would not have been made public.
Journalists should be worried, said First Amendment experts.
"The public is better served when there is more information available," said Ken Bunting, director of the National Freedom of Information Coalition, which has signed a national petition against the bills. "Anytime you are trying to curb the exercise of watchdog journalism," you run the risk of violating the First Amendment.
Nearly 60 groups, including animal rights, civil rights, lawyers, public safety, food safety and journalism organizations have signed a national petition against the ag-gag bills.
David LaBahn, president of the Association of Prosecuting Attorneys, said people shouldn't become felons if they see a crime taking place and decide to do something about it.
"If someone is there lawfully and appropriately and they see animal cruelty and pull out their cell phone [to take a picture] and they send it into law enforcement...they've committed a felony," LaBahn said.
After reviewing the Pennsylvania law, First Amendment expert Robert D. Richards of Penn State University and the founding co-director of the Pennsylvania Center for the First Amendment, said he seriously questions whether it is constitutional.
H.B. 683 would also go against the Pennsylvania Whistleblower Law, Richards said.
The law, established in 1986, makes it illegal for an employer to "discriminate or retaliate" against an employee if the person makes a "good faith report" about an incident of "wrongdoing or waste" of the employer.
"I always find it suspect when legislators are trying to create laws that are trying to keep information from the public," he said.

Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): A Forrest by Lunar Click.
My reviews are a bit different than most. As an undercover superhero (ordinary girl extraordinaire), my purpose is to try and uncover hidden gems lost from the familiar radar. Because of this, I have set up some guidelines for myself (just like the pirate code). :)
I will focus on YA and Children's literature (with very rare exceptions).
I will not review any book that is one of the top 25,000 bestselling books (based on Amazon ranks).
I will try and aim for books 100,000 or larger.
I will review recent books or books of great merit (preferably both).
Imagine a Day Sarah L. Thompson and Rob Gonsalves
Published: Janurary 25, 2005
Publisher: Atheneum Books for Young Readers
Pages: 40
Current Amazon Rank: #41,074
Author's Website:
Want it? Find it here.
The First Line:
Imagine a day...
My Take:
This is another picture book I love. The thing I love about picture books is how much can be evoked in such a small space. Sometimes it is the words used to masterful effect. Sometimes it is the illustrations so creatively and absorbingly done that you want to fall right into them, and feel you are already partway there. Of course, the best are when these two work in harmony with each other to create something extraordinary.
Imagine a day is like that. It plays with your mind in the best possible ways. You see, it relies heavily on optical illusions to give a depth of meaning the words or pictures alone cannot convey. Standing by themselves they do not have nearly the impact when they are next to each other.
Here, I'll show you.
Imagine a day...
...when you can dive
down through branches
or swim up
to the sun.
Imagine a day...
... when you forget
how to fall.
The words are poetry (I am willing to argue most picture books are) and paired with the illustrations (created before the text, mind you) they offer something of a paradigm shift, like seeing the world in a different way. It is a perfect pick-me-up or anytime read. There are two others in this series at least, Imagine a Night and Imagine a Place, though I must admit I do love Places last. This is a really fun and beautiful book and one I don't mind coming back to frequently.
The Final Word:
Words and pictures combine to make something utterly wonderful. I daresay it is synergy at work here. :)

Johnny Knoxville discovers he comes from 'significant in-breeding'
JACKASS star JOHNNY KNOXVILLE was left stunned to discover he comes from a long line of in-breeders during a recent family tree climb.
The TV and movie stuntman-turned-actor hired a top U.S. genealogist to trace his roots and he was shocked by his findings.
Knoxville says, "He calls me in... and he goes, 'Sit down, you know in these rural mountain regions you come from, no one ever goes into the community and no one ever leaves the community... so it's not uncommon that there's in-breeding in those communities.'
"I said, 'Is there in-breeding in my family?' and he says, 'A significant amount'."
But Knoxville, real name Philip John Clapp, admits he quickly shook off his shock.
The Dukes of Hazzard star explains, "I was so happy. He thought he was giving me a really horrible thing and I had tears rolling down my face."

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – Charged with the tall order of taking down the top two teams in the Peach Belt Conference (PBC) in the same week, the Georgia College men's basketball (7-9, 3-6 PBC) upset bid fell short to No. 13 USC Aiken (16-2, 8-0 PBC), 91-70 Wednesday at the Centennial Center.
The Bobcats jumped out hot, leading for the first 15:59 of the game. Their lead reached as high as nine on three different occasions, including 16-7 on a Royal Thomas (LaGrange, Ga.) free throw with 10:21 left.
The Pacers then went on a 30-10 run that nearly took them to halftime. After getting its first lead at the 3:11 mark left in the first half, USCA would never surrender the advantage.
Georgia College was led by 21 points from senior Royal Thomas, his fourth 20-point game this season. Classmate Aaron Robinson (Lawrenceville, Ga.) added 14 points and three assists running the offense, matching his season high in scoring.
Robinson's three assists give him 258 in his career, passing Shejdie Childs (2005-07) into eighth place all-time at Georgia College. Next up is seventh place, owned by Bryan Harrison (2004-06) at 280 assists. Robinson now ranks fourth in the NCAA era of basketball at Georgia College.
Junior Larrentis Thomas (McDonough, Ga.) added 12 points and five rebounds, while sophomore Ryan Blumenthal (Kennesaw, Ga.) put in 10 points.
A three-point barrage is part of what did in the Bobcats, as the Pacers hit 13-of-26 (.500) from long range. USCA also owned a commanding 39-18 lead on rebounding, including 11-3 on the offensive glass.
USCA put six individuals in double-digit scoring, led by Ronald Zimmerman, who made seven threes for 21 points. Point guard DeVonte Wright had 16 points with nine assists for a near double-double, while Santoine Butler scored 14 off the pine.
The Bobcats are back in action Saturday, Jan. 25 at 3:30 p.m. traveling to Young Harris College (10-5, 4-4 PBC). Georgia College will look for a sweep in the season's action with the Mountain Lions, owning an 81-78 victory at home Jan. 11.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

This Week's Reading
Staff Picks: Bookshop Door, Thinking Fast and SlowBy The Paris Review
Thinking, Fast and Slow sums up the cognitive research that won Daniel Kahneman a Nobel Prize in Economics (a first for a psychologist). It is also an old-fashioned work of philosophy: a series of DIY experiments that teach you how and why to doubt your intuitions about things as basic as cause and effect. —Lorin Stein
The Ransom Center has launched a curiously fascinating exhibit online, based around a door from Frank Shay's bookshop that was signed by hundreds of the habitués of 1920s Greenwich Village, including Theodore Dreiser, John Dos Passos, Upton Sinclair, Sherwood Anderson, and Sinclair Lewis. The original shop was across the street from my current apartment and exploring the site, and the interconnected histories of the people who frequented the store, is a nifty way back in time—like a portal to twenties social networking. —Deirdre Foley-Mendelssohn
I've been looking forward to pulling Dalkey Archive's new collection of stories and essays by Mina Loy off my shelf, but it hasn't yet found it's way into my reading cycle. I have managed to dip my toe in by way of Triple Canopy's excerpt of her play "The Sacred Prostitute," a very funny send-up of, among other things, men's attitudes toward women. What's more, some young genius at the magazine has put a handful of CF's sublime, seductive drawings into the mix. —Nicole Rudick

By Allison Moomey, KF16, Burkina Faso
The longer I'm with my partner microfinance institution, Micro Start, the more impressed I am with them. Not only are they wonderful, hard-working people who get things done, but they also have a long-term, sustainable, and empowering vision. I recently completed a credit and savings product survey, and one of the questions for each product is "what is the goal of this product?" The answer always involved the word autonome, or autonomous. Each product is working to eventually move the client to financial stability and independence.
Given the lack of financial history for most new clients, Micro Start recognizes that most aren't yet ready to make the giant leap to complete financial independence. There's where the "ladder of autonomy" comes in. Although not an official name, the image of a ladder helps to illustrate the path Micro Start clients take. The idea is essentially to start clients at a place where they are able to make small financial strides and move them to a place where these strides become larger and larger. This prevents over-indebtedness, which is a crucial to avoid for effective microfinance.
The first step on this ladder is a savings account directly at the market. This savings account requires the client to save a small amount each day (~ $0.40) until they reach the price of a good for their business. The most common product for which this account is used is gas for stoves. These clients have used wood for energy in the past, and they are looking for a way to switch over to gas. There are four significant advantages to this method:
- The client can purchase gas for cheaper at Micro Start than at a commercial vendor, as Micro Start's goals are simply to cover the costs of their operation, not make a profit.
- Over the long term, gas is actually cheaper than wood, but it requires a much larger one-time investment, which is otherwise prohibitive for most clients.
- It facilitates borrower savings by requiring clients to deposit money each day before it ever leaves the market (for many cultural and economic reasons it is much harder to save this money once it gets home).
- The environment smiles when gas is used in place of wood.
After a client successfully completes this process, Micro Start can be confident in their ability to pay back a loan. For clients who are cannot access traditional financial services because they lack credit and collateral, this is a great way for Micro Start to establish trust in the client's ability to save and pay back a loan. This is important not only for any institution to protect itself from excess risk but also for client protection from over-indebtedness. After obtaining their product, a consistent and responsible client can "graduate" to a solidarity group loan and move one rung up the ladder.
With a solidarity group loan, a client can gather a group of other women they trust and request a small loan from Micro Start. If their loan is approved, they will be on their way up in the world of microcredit. After they pay back this first small loan on time, many clients take out a new loan, often for a slightly larger amount. You will see many of these relistings posted on Kiva's website. I met an ambitious client last month who was working hard to pay back her first loan ahead of time so she could take out another and continue to grow her business.
After a few loan cycles in a solidarity group, a client who has the desire and ability can take one more step up and become and individual client. As an individual, a client has more flexibility and freedom with their loan, and the loan is often for a larger amount. Clients can continue with numerous individual loan cycles and grow their business a bit more each time. Once they have enough income, capital, and credit history, the hope is that clients can reach the point where that they can now access traditional financial services. This access opens many previously closed doors and provides a level of autonomy previously inaccessible to these clients.
There's no strict ladder or formula for a client's climb up the ladder of autonomy. The exact path a client takes depends on numerous factors, but the map Micro Start has set out and implements is moving clients in a direction of empowerment. And that's the beauty of microfinance!

PigIron Open Source Java Class Library for VSMAPI
PigIron is a Java class library for carrying out IBM z/VM V5R3.0 Systems Management Application Programming transactions over TCP/IP sockets (hereinafter referred to as VSMAPI).
There are servers on the z/VM host that answer a funky message body protocol and let you do thusly various tasks on the z/Server. IBM provides this facility to support its own tool suites but has published the spec. I'm not positive, but PigIron may be the only open source implementation for a Java platform to perform these remote tasks via VSMAPI.
I started coding two weeks ago. While I haven't yet used the SourceForge release mechanism to post a release, the code already checked into CVS implements the complete communication and parameter marshalling/demarshalling. I've coded and tested four or five of the safer VSMAPI Functions (all Queries). Coding a function and its param types is now about 1/2 hr work. There are about one hundred left to code in z/VM 5.3 :)
After the class lib and the functions are complete, I hope to have the time next to code visual widgets to use VSMAPI functions in Swing applications.
Does PigIron need help? Yes. PigIron could use a graphic emblem. I want a FLYING PIG caressing a z10 !

Rack system. 3 Levels. M, width: 560, depth: 450mm, height: 525mm. Max. load: 30kg. Finish: Platform - Nextel Grey, Side part - High Gloss Colour.
SMD Ambitious:
The new rack system
The fact that high-end hi-fi equipment tends to show a highly sensitive response to whatever it is standing on is an open secret. For this reason, we have developed the new "SMD Ambitious" rack system range, based on the highly successful "Silence" equipment base. In doing this, we focussed on isolating the surface on which the equipment stands from vibrations of the shelf beneath, in order to minimise the amount of external vibration affecting the equipment. In this new design, an advanced version of our unique gel base is used.
Together with the hand-polished, chromed spikes, which make sure that the equipment is standing properly aligned on a secure base, this guarantees a unique sound experience.
Attention has been given not only to the acoustic aspect but also to the visuals. Keeping in line with "form follows function", the system is integrated into a modern, highly flexible design. With smart painted and wooden surfaces, the rack can be customized to fit in with your existing furniture. Alternatively, it is possible to deliberately choose an eye-catching contrast by using the finishes in the Sparkling range.
The built-in hi-fi equipment bases are available in the two different sizes M and L. Along with the option of choosing 1 to 4 levels, it is possible to find the right configuration for any system.
Flexible by design – totally uncompromising in sound
"During my trials with diverse components … there wasn't a single device that would not respond in a positive way. … To me the SMD Ambitious has definitely component status."
Olaf Sturm in "HiFi &Records", 01/2016,
"After lengthy listening, also over the days that followed, I consistently gained the impression that the THIXAR stands were bringing a pleasant repose to the music. … On the contrary, the solidity in the music made the sound even more explosive and exciting."
Wolfgang Kemper in "Hifi Statement"

You have to see Death By China!
Today on the Fairness Radio radio show I talked with Peter Navarro, director of the new movie Death By China. This is a documentary about the United States' trade relationship with China, and the harm that has been done to our country, especially to manufacturing jobs and the towns where the factories have been closed. Since China was permitted to join the World Trade Organization in 2001 more than 50,000 U.S. manufacturing facilities have closed, largely due to China's unfair trade practices, manipulation of its currency, use of cheap labor and lack of environmental standards.
The Death By China website informs us that the movie is …
… a documentary feature that pointedly confronts the most urgent problem facing America today – its increasingly destructive economic trade relationship with a rapidly rising China. Since China began flooding U.S. markets with illegally subsidized products in 2001, over 50,000 American factories have disappeared, more than 25 million Americans can't find a decent job, and America now owes more than 3 trillion dollars to the world's largest totalitarian nation. Through compelling interviews with voices across the political spectrum, DEATH BY CHINA exposes that the U.S.-China relationship is broken and must be fixed if the world is going to be a place of peace and prosperity.

Here at Minted, we want you to enjoy the creative process of planning birthday parties for your children. That's why we've worked with independent designers to bring you an unparalleled collection of custom kids' birthday party invitations.

2. Set a date, and check with parents to make sure your kid's best friends can attend.
3. Choose your location and theme by week 5 of planning. This will allow you extra time to plan entertainment and find the perfect birthday decorations.
4. Send out your custom birthday invitations 3-4 weeks in advance. Parents will appreciate the extra time to schedule your party in their calendar.

Welcome to the 13th annual Canadian Cyclist of the Year Awards! Once again, it is time for our readers to cast their votes in three categories:
Canadian Cyclist of the Year - Female
Canadian Cyclist of the Year - Male
Best Individual Performance
The voting procedure reflects the fact that it can be difficult to select just one athlete to vote for. Instead, you will be able to rank your preferences, with the top rank receiving 5 points, the second receiving 4 points, etc. The athlete (and performance) receiving the highest average "grade" wins.
For this year, we have also made a change to the Best Performance voting. This year there were so many individual performances by Canadian Cyclists worthy of inclusion (14), that we have decided to present CC Awards to the top three performances, as selected by our readers.
There is one additional award this year: Canadian Cyclist of the Decade. This is a write-in vote, with no pre-selected names. Is it Roland Green with back-to-back world titles and a World Cup title, Ryder Hesjedal for results as a pro both off and on road, Lori-Ann Muenzer for Canada's one and only Olympic gold medal, Marie-Helene Premont for her Olympic silver medal and World Cup consistency, Gord Fraser for his incredible number of pro wins, or someone else we didn't mention here?
Cast your Vote.

The Best Valentine's Day Gifts For Men: Louis Vuitton Knockoffs!Categories:Louis Vuitton
Either if you're in a romantic mood or not, Valentine's Day is a great occasions to offer gifts to your loved ones. From my experience, you can't go wrong with Louis Vuitton knockoffs as long as you make sure you choose only the best.
So here are some of the best Valentine's Day gift ideas I could think of; but hurry up, because you need to get them before Chinese New Year!
The best thing about Louis Vuitton knockoffs is that there are so many great options for both men and women! Since I know that most of my readers are women, I decided to help you out with some affordable and stylish gift ideas for men. When it comes to elegance, there's no better option than replica LV accessories.
So here are my top 3 replica LV picks for men:
1. A fake Louis Vuitton bag is not a good gift just for women. Men need work bags and traveling bags too! LV offers some of the most functional and stylish bags for men and plenty of models and styles to choose from. The replica Louis Vuitton bags collection for men at PurseValley is quite impressive. My personal favorites: the replica LV Damier Graphite Keepall Bandouliere and the replica LV Taiga Dersou.
2. A replica Louis Vuitton wallet is a safe bet. This is one of the best men's accessories you could buy. A practical gift from a high end brand that looks luxurious and will last for years should make any man happy! My pick: the LV Monogram Gaspar Wallet.
3. A belt is another essential accessory for men and a nice touch of luxury. Still, I only advise you to buy a replica Louis Vuitton belt to someone you know really well, this is more of a personal gift. For discreet men I'd recommend a simple belt made of black leather and for guys who like to stand out, I'd choose a Monogram canvas belt.
And since you girls are my confidants, I'd like to share my latest replica Louis Vuitton bag crush with you: I'm talking about the Louis Vuitton Lockme Tote. What do you think, isn't it just beautiful?
If you're planning to buy any of these Louis Vuitton knockoffs just in time for Valentine's Day, you have to hurry up! The reason why I'm saying this is because during the Chinese New Year factories and shipping carriers are closed, so if you place your order too late, there is the possibility of shipping delays!
The Chinese New Year celebration usually lasts for two weeks. Chinese New Year 2015 begins next Thursday, on 19th February and ends on 5th of March. Since all replica sites ship from China, I thought this is something you should know!
