Building on the award-winning LiVe educational program to help teens and families be more physically active and make more healthy food choices
Salt Lake City
— "Eat Well, Move Well, Feel Well, and Be Well" are the areas of focus of Intermountain Healthcare's new public service "LiVe Well" campaign, which encourages adults, teens, and children to adopt healthy behaviors that move them toward optimal life balance.
The campaign builds on Intermountain's award-winning LiVe educational program to help teens and families be more physically active and make more healthy food choices. The expanded campaign will continue to offer support in schools and in the community, but will also make efforts to reach a wider audience to encourage health behaviors.
Although Utah is better than most other states, still more than 23 percent of adults and children in Utah are overweight or obese, contributing to poor health and decreased quality of life. Experts point to a complex set of reasons for the current epidemic of overweight and unprecedented obesity in America. They include a rise in soft drink consumption, bigger food and beverage portions, the increase in daily screen time-from TV and computers to video games, and a decrease in physical activity.
The LiVe Well program, featured at www.intermountainlivewell.org, offers articles, practical advice from healthcare experts, charts, and other resources to support healthy decisions. The following is an overview:
EAT WELL — Choosing healthier food can improve memory, boost creativity, and build overall health. The Eat Well section of the site offers eating tips, healthy recipes, cooking demonstrations, and more.
MOVE WELL — Everyone needs regular physical activity for stronger muscles and to increase energy, regardless of their health, age, shape, or size. This section offers exercise advice, healthy habits tips, information about Intermountain's new LiVe Well Centers, and other resources.
FEEL WELL — Happy. Secure. Content. Peaceful. Healthy. That's what we seek to be in life. We want to spend more time in these places of physical and emotional well-being and less time being stressed, worried, sick, and sad. The Feel Well section offers tools to help manage stress, depression, and sleep issues, each of which can diminish a healthy state of mind and body.
BE WELL — Intermountain offers a full range of information and tools to help manage health, learn about symptoms and conditions and their treatment options, and locate the right types of healthcare professionals to provide the care healthy communities need. This section offers information about screenings, links to Intermountain's weight management programs, SelectHealth resources, a symptom checker, and videos.

Boston, MA (PRWEB) January 26, 2013
After a period of rapid product development, participants in the small business credit card space appeared to temporarily slow their product development cycles.
The small business credit card market remains a critical one for U.S. credit card issuers. With nearly 28 million small businesses and room to grow business card penetration, there remains significant opportunity for product growth. This research is part of Mercator Advisory Group's ongoing annual coverage to this topic.
"2012 certainly marked a year that took a break from the rapid product development cycle that we have seen in recent years, and when the market leaders appeared to focus more on execution than innovation. This was perhaps an appropriate strategy for a year in which small businesses themselves searched for direction from the economy," comments Ken Paterson, VP for Research Operations at Mercator Advisory Group and the primary author of the report.
Highlights of the report include:
This report contains 22 pages and 9 exhibits.
Companies mentioned in this report include: American Express, Capital One, Chase, Discover, MasterCard, US Bank, Visa, and Wells Fargo.

In any disaster situation,
transportation and communication may be interrupted, and doctors
may be overwhelmed. You may need to evaluate or treat minor or major injuries
or provide first aid, because medical care may not be immediately available.
You may feel more confident when an emergency happens if you know what to do
ahead of time and have resources at hand. The following topics discuss
emergencies that can occur in a disaster situation:
Emergency procedures you may want to know include:
natural disaster, industrial accident, or terrorist attack can cause a host of
situations that lead to injury or illness. In some cases your home may need to
be evacuated or may be damaged. A disaster may interrupt water supplies, food
supplies, sewer and trash services, and heat and electricity. You may be
exposed to the elements or have less-than-adequate shelter for a period of
time. The following topics can help you avoid or cope with injuries related to
food safety, sanitation, and exposure:

You may feel overwhelmed after
an accident, natural disaster, or terrorist attack. Some people who witness a
traumatic event that seemed life-threatening develop a stress reaction known as
acute stress disorder, which can last up to a month
after the event.
Symptoms include feeling numb, reliving the
event through disturbing memories or dreams, and avoiding anything that may be
a reminder of the event. Symptoms are so intense that they disrupt daily
activities like going to work and interacting with other people.
If the symptoms last more than a month or don't develop until more than a
month after the event, you may have
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Even if you
were not injured or in danger, you can still get acute stress disorder or PTSD
if you felt physically threatened or witnessed violence. For more information,
see the topic
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
People who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event often need
help from health professionals who are specially trained. If symptoms are
severe enough to disrupt your daily life or do not improve after 2 weeks, talk
with a doctor.
If you lost a loved one or friend in a disaster or
accident (or even a pet, your home, or important possessions), you will need
time to cope with feelings of grief and loss. For more information, see the
Grief and Grieving.

also cause feelings of depression that may need treatment. For more

Moody drops opener of region semifinals
Undisciplined Trojans suffer shocking defeat
ROBSTOWN - There was snow on the ground in parts of the United States the last time Moody High School's baseball team lost a ballgame.
Most of that snow has melted, as has the Trojans' 27-game winning streak.
A seldom-used, crafty Alamo Heights left-hander named Michael Almquist quieted the potent Moody bats for 5.1 innings Thursday night at Fairgrounds Field. The Mules scored the game's lone run on a fourth-inning double play in shocking the top-ranked Trojans 1-0 in the opening game of the Region IV-4A semifinal series.
Save for pitcher Justin Meza's four-hit performance with 10 strikeouts, it was an uncharacteristically undisciplined Trojans squad that took the field. It was their first loss since falling to Laredo United in February.
"We missed five signs today, five signs," Moody coach Corky Gallegos said. "All of them came back to bite us. Discipline was the difference in this game."
Moody, which entered the game with close to a .400 batting average, collected four hits. The 32-2 Trojans now find themselves in uncharted territory, having to win two games to advance to the regional final. The series continues at 3 p.m. Saturday at V.J. Keefe Stadium in San Antonio, with a third game to follow, if necessary.
Almquist (4-1) hadn't thrown in a month. Mules ace Luke Maloy, the scheduled Game 2 starter, mopped up with 1.2 innings of perfect relief.
"Michael Almquist did an outstanding job, outstanding job. We haven't used him in more than a month," said coach Glynn Tschirhart, whose Mules improved to 27-5. "We put this plan in his head Monday evening and he's been working on the changeups and the offspeeds for the last couple of days and he just worked the plan to a tee.
"He got us to a position where we could bring in Maloy where he could save it and he came in and did his thing also."
Moody had prime opportunities to score in the first and fourth innings but stranded two runners each time, two at third base. But the fateful fifth is the one that will ache the most.
The Trojans loaded the bases with an out thanks to a walk to Marcus Villanueva, a single by Christian Garza-Gallegos and an intentional walk to Rudy Flores. Corky Gallegos called for a straight steal of home, and Villanueva appeared to have the base stole. Except the batter, Meza, fouled off a two-strike pitch. The runners returned to their bases and on a 1-2 pitch to Michael Franco, Villanueva again took off but was thrown out by Almquist for the third out.
"The next time he tried to steal home, he took matters into his own hands," Gallegos said. "He's lucky that Michael Franco didn't turn on one and get him hurt. We blew it on discipline."
As things turned out, Franco led off the sixth with a double, one of only four Moody hits. After he was sacrificed to third, Maloy was summoned and he shut down the five Trojans he faced.
It was a tough loss for Meza (13-1). He tossed 94 pitches, 58 for strikes. Maloy, who had two of Heights' four hits, scored on Chris Bennert's double-play grounder with the bases loaded and no outs in the fourth.
"It's just too bad but that's exactly how this game is, it's cruel," Gallegos said of Meza's effort. "You have a good performance like that and they come up with a run. I would've never thought the one run would do it, otherwise we'd have played the infield up to prevent the run. But we played for the double play to prevent the big inning.
"But you play the game by percentages. We just blew it when it came to execution of calls and missing signs and taking matters into our own hands."

International Vegetable and Bean Recipes
The domestication of wild plants began around 10,000 years ago at the end of the last Ice Age. The initial domestication occurred in the Middle East, but agriculture also arose independently in other places at other times. Southeast Asia, Central and South America also cradled ancient civilizations that produced their own agricultural products. Because of this, most of the vegetables we find on our plates today originated in these four areas of the world.
Vegetables do not generally form the caloric foundation of human diets, nor are they a large source of protein. The basic role of vegetables in the diet is to provide a range of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are essential to the well being of the body. These nutrients not only maintain heath but also help prevent the onset of disease.
A second and more enjoyable role of vegetables is to provide variety and flavor. Grains and grain products alone can be bland. And meat can be heavy and difficult to digest. But add tomatoes, onions, peppers, mushrooms, herbs and spices, and a dish is transformed. The endless variety of colors, scents and flavors offered by vegetables ensure that cooking, eating and the culinary experience are never boring.

The Regional Centers of Excellence (RCEs) were put in place to provide cohesive, focused systemic support to districts and schools to maximize resources, build capacity, and promote sustainability of reform efforts to increase educational equity, excellence and efficacy for all students.
MDE partners with six service cooperatives as fiscal agents to host the RCEs, each of which has a full-time center director and other staff hired regionally. The RCEs started by creating the Statewide System of Support to assist leadership teams in Priority and Focus schools to raise student achievement and close the achievement gap. Two years later, the RCEs began working to offer services and support to all schools in the state to implement the World's Best Workforce goals.
The expansion of the centers, as outlined Minnesota Statutes, section 120B.115, has doubled the number of centers in Minnesota, from three to six. This increased level of service enables the RCEs to collaboratively establish a coherent statewide system of regional support that includes consulting, training, and technical support. Working together, we can maximize the assistance available to schools and substantially increase student achievement.

The Congress expressed outrage on Monday over Ved Pratap Vaidik's meeting last month with Hafiz Saeed, disrupting Parliament and accusing the Prime Minister's Office of being "directly involved", but the trip to Pakistan on which Baba Ramdev's close aide met with the founder of Lashkar-e-Toiba was, in fact, coordinated by Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar.
Another senior Congress leader and former cabinet minister, Salman Khurshid, was also on the trip, along with several media personalities.
Vaidik and the others travelled to Pakistan at the invitation of Regional Peace Institute, Islamabad, for an Indo-Pak bilateral dialogue, a Track 2 intiative. Aiyar is on the institute's board of governors.
Sadly,So called 'Secular' India is unable to bear an informal meeting of her journalist, Mr.Videk; another eg of Indian narrow mindedness
— Hafiz Muhammad Saeed (@HafizSaeedJUD) July 14, 2014
We discussed how all 26/11 evidences provided by India have been rejected & asked Mr.Vaidik, why India does not respect Pakistani courts ?
— Hafiz Muhammad Saeed (@HafizSaeedJUD) July 14, 2014
Khurshid said on Monday that Vaidik had stayed back in Pakistan after the conference. "Ours was a very short trip of just three days including travel time, and there was a two-week gap between the conference and the meeting (with Hafiz Saeed). Mr Vaidik stayed back, and I am told he met the prime minister and others," Khurshid said.
Aiyar said in a text message: "He (Vaidik) was with me at the invitation of the Regional Peace Institute Islamabad." Vaidik did not respond to calls and SMSes.
In Parliament, Congress MPs created an uproar over Vaidik, a journalist "close to the RSS", meeting "India's most wanted terrorist" as an "intermediary", and demanded an explanation from the government.
Later, party spokesperson Shakeel Ahmed stressed the point that three of Vaidik's former colleagues in the Delhi-based think tank Vivekananda International Foundation were now in the PMO, and demanded to know if Vaidik had met Saeed "at the instruction of the Prime Minister".
"Vaidik belonged to the same organisation Vivekananda International Foundation, whose members Nripendra Misra and Ajit Doval are working for the Modi government as Principal Secretary, Additional Principal Secretary in PMO and as National Security Adviser," Ahmed said.
"Now the fourth person, who also worked in the Foundation, Vaidik,… has met the most wanted terrorist in India, who is an accused in Mumbai terror strikes. A serious question arises. Did he go to meet Hafiz Saeed at the instruction of the Prime Minister? The Prime Minister and the government must come clean on it," he said.

Using a series of tools you can easily (although I have to admit I personally did not find it as intuitive to use as some others did) add or delete colors, hue, saturation, etc. without once having to remove your picture from your device. Once you have your photo modified to your liking you can also share it via email and social networks right from the app.
Stay with us after the break to see Color Range in action and learn more.
We think the DailyApp Show did a nice job of showing off the basics of what Color Range can do, regardless of which iOS device you decide to use it on. Since their video was shot there have even been more options added to the app. The Color Range app developers are continually improving their app with their latest upgrade only two weeks ago.
Color Range goes far beyond other apps and gives you unique never-before-seen capabilities for creative color play. The app features 2 unique effects for automatic color highlighting – "Color Picker" and "Color Sliders". These effects allow you to create killer pics with a few taps of your finger, providing amazing results that cannot be achieved with "manual brushing". In addition, the app offers a color/grayscale brush, for use when custom corrections need to be made.
Color Range Now Features:
- Unique filters called Color Separator and Equalizers Of Colors' Range for automatic point out and partial or full elimination of a color or colors range
- Standard or Advanced mode of gray/colored brush for manual elimination or recovering of photo's colors
- Brightness, Contrast, Saturation and Sharpness filters for additional adjustments and receiving of the style you need for your image
- Hue filter for changing colors of selected objects
- Color Balance filter for achieving different kinds of vintage effects
- Ability to view all applied effects in real-time
- Ability to cancel and repeat your actions an unlimited number of times
- Zoom function
- Ability to upload images with any resolution or apply the built-in camera
- Ability to save images in high resolution up to 2040×2040
- Ability to save images in Photo Album, send them via email or export them to Facebook and Twitter
Color Range provides a new way to make your photos look incredibly stylish. No more hand work and tedious area selection! Color Range allows you to turn any picture into a colorized vintage photo with just a couple of finger taps.

Read that last issue of Consumer reports buddy. Verizon was number on is every state except one.
Never said they weren't. I am just stating that there are good alternatives. People aren't stuck with Verizon due to their coverage as they used to be.
In my area, Cingular is equal to (if not better) than Verizon as far as Signal Strength is concerned. And Sprint is not far behind those 2.

Host Cougars Defeat Illini, 8-1
Feb. 15, 2013
Houston, Texas - The University of Houston Cougars used consistent offense to earn their first-ever victory over the Illini, 8-1. The Illini had 14 runners on base, but the majority of their offense came with two outs, as only one member of the Orange and Blue made it home. Houston improves to 6-2, while Illinois falls to 3-4.
"They had 10 hits, we had eight," said Head Coach Terri Sullivan. "The difference was Houston scored in all but one inning, and we didn't get any of those hits with runners on that win ball games. Those are going to come, and we get a chance to do that tomorrow."
Brittney Sanchez and Jess Perkins each went 2-for-3 with a walk, and Perkins added a double and an RBI. Allie Bauch scored the Illini's lone run after tabbing Illinois' first hit of the game. Jenna Mychko made four plays at the plate, helped in part by leftfielder Alex Booker, who had two outfield assists, both through Katie Repole at third base.
Holly Anderson was the player of the game for Houston, going 4-for-5 with a double, four RBI, two runs, and three stolen bases. Haley Outon was 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, two runs, two stolen bases and three RBI.
Shelese Arnold started in the circle for the Orange and Blue, allowing three runs, two earned, on five hits and two walks in the first 2.1 innings. Jackie Guy replaced her in the third, allowing the final five runs, four earned, on five hits and six walks. Both pitchers also had one strikeout.
Cougar hurler Bailey Watts through the complete game, allowing just one run on eight hits and six walks.
Arnold began the game with a strikeout, but a dropped third strike led to a runner on first. Kendra Cullum laid down a sacrifice bunt, to move Holly Anderson to second. A groundout by Reina Gaber put Anderson on third, and Haley Outon picked up the first RBI of the day with a double to shallow right.
Julia Pecina led off the top of the second by getting hit with a pitch. She advanced to second on a passed ball, then a Kayla Holland single moved her to third. Holland stole second, then Jennifer Hooker walked to load the bases with nobody out. Katie St. Pierre smoked it to the left side, but a diving snag by Repole saved a run, throwing home for the force at the plate. Anderson followed with a single down the left field line, scoring Holland, but perfect relay from Booker to Repole to Mychko nailed Hooker at the plate. Cullum walked to re-load the bases, but Gaber grounded to short, as Arnold escaped the jam with just one run.
Outon began the third inning with a hit by pitch, she stole second and advanced to third on an illegal pitch. Duplechain singled to third, but a diving stop by Repole held Outon at third. Duplechain stole second, and a dropped throw at second allowed Outon to score. Pecina smoked a ball to leftfield, but another Booker-Repole-Mychko relay caught Duplechain at the plate. Jackie Guy then took over in the circle, and got the final two outs, ending the third down, 3-0.
The Illini put together a two-out rally in the bottom of the third, picking up their first run of the game. After two hard lineouts, Allie Bauch got the first hit for Illinois, a single to left. Sanchez followed with another single to left, and a Perkins single to left drove in Bauch. Repole walked to load the bases, but after fouling off several pitches, Mychko popped up to end the inning.
Anderson hit a leadoff single in the top of the fourth. Guy got the next two outs, but a two-run homer to left-center by Outon made it 5-1 Houston.
After Booker made the first out of the fifth, three walks loaded the bases for Anderson, who singled to left, scoring Holland, to put the Cougars up, 6-1.
The Illini offense heated up with two outs in the fifth, started by a walk by Perkins. Repole singled to left, and Mychko followed with another single. As Perkins came around third, she initially stopped, but then saw the leftfielder had dropped the ball and decided to head home. Meanwhile, Repole rounded second and headed to third. Pecina retrieved the ball and fired it to third, catching Repole for the third out just before Perkins could cross the plate, saving a run and leaving the score at 6-1.
Hooker walked to start the seventh. St. Pierre beat out an infield single, then the runners advanced on a throwing error by Jami Schkade. Anderson drilled a two-run double down the left field line to put Houston ahead, 8-1. Anderson stole third, but got thrown out at the plate by Perkins on a ground ball by Gaber.
Sanchez singled with one out in the bottom of the seventh. Perkins hit her second double of the day, deep to left, and Repole walked to load the bases. However, Watts struck out the final two batters to claim an 8-1 victory.
Illinois is back in action Saturday morning, facing DePaul at 10 a.m. followed by No. 6 Texas.

Bug bites and stings usually are just nuisances. They bring momentary alarm, temporary discomfort and pain, but no serious or lasting health problems. But on occasion, they can cause infections that require treatment and allergic reactions that can be serious, even fatal.
Parents should know the signs of an infection or allergic reaction, and when to get medical attention. Inform all caregivers if a child has any history of complications so they know what to do in the event of a bug bite or sting.
In the southwest United States, an unidentified bite may be caused by a scorpion. Take your child to the emergency room immediately.
Check kids and pets for ticks carefully after you've been in or around a wooded area. Common types of ticks include dog ticks and deer ticks (deer ticks may be carriers of Lyme disease).

Overarching Recommendation
Individual Chapter Recommendation
Government Agency Involved
3. Enhance the Federal Effort. The NIDRR program of activities and its annual appropriation of approximately $70 million should be moved from the U.S. Department of Education to DHHS and serve as the foundation for the creation of a new Agency on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (ADRR). ADRR would assume the tasks that were formerly assigned to the Interagency Committee on Disability Research and be given enhanced authority through review of disability and rehabilitation research plans and control of funding for interagency collaboration. To further support and enhance the overall federal effort, all major programs in disability and rehabilitation-related research should be elevated within their respective agencies or departments.
DHHS, NSF, U.S. Department of Education, VA
consistent with this committee's recommendations. Table 10-4 in Chapter 10 shows the present funding levels and two options for expanded programs of research at a cost of $100 and $200 million.
Finally, Table 11-1 shows the relationship of the three overarching recommendations and general priorities to each of the individual recommendations in the preceding chapters.

The holiday "spirits" were flowing on Abbot Kinney last night! From the partying amongst $165 hoodies at the Aviator Nation, the glass-shakin' techno dance party at Trim, to a cozy cool little SHAG-alicious lounge at Hint Mint, there was fun in every flavor. And speaking of flavor, I think LITERALLY every food truck in Los Angeles was on the street last night- check your Twitter- who ever you follow-I swear they were there. That being said, myself and the Danish Drinking Contingent craved a bit of local love, and peddled away from the throngs to Bondi BBQ. Open late for alcohol absorbtion, conveniently located next door to The TownHouse, the BBQ here is SO GOOD. Rich, delicious, salty sweet- made this Georgia Peach crave home( just for a second). Needing a crisp Chard to wash all this goodness down, I took a quick peddle around the corner to that ( formerly) dodgey liquer store on Main. When I lived on Horizon at the beach, this place was last resort, but the Korean lady (a.k.a ChiChi's Auntie) who runs it has cleaned it up... and like the land lady in Kung Fu Hustle, she will CLEAN YOU OUT! I stood awestruck in front of the refrigerators as I gazed at $14.99 bottles of Andre and Korbel ($4.99?), and $16 bottle of Barefoot Chardonnay ($7.99?)...so buyer beware, you'll get your booze, but you'll have to PAY!
Along with being a resident barllerina, I also fancy myself as a bit of a Venice historian! As you may already know, Venice was founded by Abbot Kinney in 1905 as a giant amusement park called Venice of America. Well I think ol'AK would be delighted to see that his namesake street is infact a bonafide circus on the First Friday of every month. Tree man, Ompalooma bands, Burners on double high bikes, parties in every nook, galleries packed with art admirers, bars crammed with boozers, more food trucks then I've got fingers, and crowds 5 abreast on the sidewalk...IT IS ONE BIG AMUSEMENT! Want to get the down-low on tomorrow's fun fest...check out one or both of these handy sites: Yo!Venice or Abbot Kinney Online. See you on the street!
Yes, I can hear you...
I was at Canal Club tonight for Slider Monday ( 1/2 price beer, $2.50 sliders) , with my #1 research team, and the general consensus is that the Venice Happy Hour would be a much happier place if you (wisened readers) got to contribute your very valuable opinions on where to go, what to drink, etc. My delightful little webhost, who is cheap and easy ( ahem) doesn't enable that feature as of yet, but... well, I do. SO! Don't be shy- Facebook or Twitter or ol'fashioned email me (firstname.lastname@example.com) what you have to say, and I will happily include, explore, etc. A poll feature will be up and running soon, don't be a stranger. BTW- Its First Friday this weekend on Abbot Kinney- the street will be outrageous as usual... get your tummy ready for the taco trucks, and your wallet ready for a party at the Stronghold- it's sure to be a busy night!

YIELD: Serves eight
1. Combine all sponge starter ingredients in a mixing bowl. The resulting goo should look wet and reckless. Wrap the bowl up and let it sit in the corner (preferably a warm one) for four hours or as long as overnight.
2. Combine all the dry ingredients for the dough in a large bowl or the mixing bowl for a counter top mixer. Mix them, mechanically or manually, so that all they are distributed evenly. Add water, one cup of the sponge, and butter and mix to combine.
3. Add the egg. You want to do this after the butter so the egg doesn't cook. Mix by hand for ten to fifteen minutes (three to five with a Kitchen Aid using the paddle on medium speed) until the dough forms a smooth paste. It should still be sticky and stretchy, but not very wet. If you're using a machine; switch to the dough hook and mix for another five minutes on medium; if you're manual, turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead the hell out of it for seven minutes.
4. In yet another bowl, add the olive oil and give a swirl. Form the dough into a ball, and roll it in the oil so that it's greasy everywhere. Cover the bowl with plastic and let it sit for an hour in a warm corner.
5. For filling, make Cast-Iron Mushrooms but add 2 pounds of sliced shallots. When the shallots begin to brown, add 1/2 cup cream sherry and reduce by half. Set aside.
6. Form the rolls: on a floured surface, gently roll out the dough into a 12 by 18 inch square. Spread the sherry-butter-shallot-mushroom goo all over the giant dough square on your counter. Make sure to spread evenly all the way to the edges. Apply the dill and the cheese in a similar fashion; evenly distribute all the way to the corners of your dough sheet.
7. Sprinkle salt and grind pepper all over the thing and preheat your oven to 350.
8. As if it were a jointthat's rightcarefully roll the rectangle into itself. Start at the bottom and curl inwards until you have a bulging log. Use a sharp knife and slice rolls off of the left side of the log. You can make them as thick as you'd like; we like ours about two inches thick.
9. Gingerly place the rolls side by each on a greased (with butter) baking pan and cover them loosely with plastic.
10. When thirty minutesminimum!has elapsed, slide the rolls into the oven and bake for fifteen to twenty minutes. When they start to smell amazing, check them. You're looking for a nice golden brown hue on the top of each one.

Original Post:
This isn't a help desk; we don't do personalized gear advice, sorry.
Hey Everyone,
If I may refer to you for some questions that I cannot get my head around for.
This is my gear at the moment:
Kansai @ Nagrand - Community - World of Warcraft
Please take in consideration that, at the moment and for at least two months, my only resource for raid gear is LFR, as I'm running on a "social" schedule with my guild.
As you can see I'm got the bonus from two pieces of T15.
As long as ShadoPan Assault gear goes, I could get gloves (not pants, as was lucky enough at Nalak for 522 ones), provided Nalak will not drop the tier 522 which I believe would be better than SPA.
Also got 522 belt from Oondasta, which would lead me away from ShadoPan belt as well.
Now, checking gear lists I see that e.g. helm from Dark Animus gives more SEP points (hopefully writing this correct!) than the tier helm. Same for shoulders from Tortos - much higher compared to their tier counterpart.
My questions would be:
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!
- is it good to drop the 4p T15 bonus to get more powerful offpieces?
- if yes, am I right in keeping legplates and gloves (which I can get in their 522 version), and using offpieces for helm-shoulder?
- more or less, how much "dps" can we quantify the 4P 15 bonus at LFR level - I've read around 5k dps, give or take, but would prefer a formal confirmation from you experts.

Niall Horan Clarifies Simon Cowell's One Direction Breakup Comments
Niall Horan is speaking out about One Direction's future on his own terms.
Niall Horan is speaking out about One Direction's future on his own terms.
You never know what you're going to see on some talent reality show, and that is absolutely the case more than not on "Britain's Got Talent." Recently an elderly group called 'The Zimmers' took the stage
Simon Cowell has broken his silence following the controversial video that seemingly shows One Direction's Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik smoking a joint in a car.
Simon Cowell is the expert on music competition TV shows, gifting the world with the likes of the record-breaking 'Got Talent' series and the British-Irish heartthrobs of One Direction. The unstoppable mogul is at it again, searching for the ultimate Latino boy band with 'La Banda.'
Simon Cowell boasts a hefty resume of involvement in talent-seeking TV shows, from the classic 'American Idol' to the more recently shelved 'The X Factor USA,' but the 'Got Talent' series might just be the music mogul's most successful venture yet.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Guinness Book of World Records has officially designated 'Got Talent' as the world's most successful reality TV format, earning the title because of its as-of-yet undefeated number of adaptations.
OMG, we can't even. Acid-tongued former 'American Idol' and 'X Factor' judge Simon Cowell shared three photos of his newborn son, Eric, who made his grand entrance into the world in NYC on Friday, Feb. 14.
Simon Cowell's Valentine's Day present was a 6 pound, 7 ounce bundle of joy. The reality TV mogul and lovable sourpuss and his gorgeous girlfriend, Lauren Silverman, welcomed their baby boy at 5:45PM ET on Feb. 14.
One person who is decidedly not Team Kendall when it comes to Harry Styles (besides his ex Taylor Swift)? Oh, just Simon Cowell. And it's Kris Jenner's fault.
Ever the savvy businessman, Simon Cowell has come up with a fool-proof plan to save the troubled 'X Factor': Hire Miley Cyrus as a judge!
Simon Cowell may be wrong about a lot of things -- like, you know, his penchant for V-neck shirts -- but one thing he got a billion percent right was assembling One Direction on 'X Factor U.K.' Since then, the cantankerous Brit has kept in touch with the boys and reveals how he keeps them in line!

Boeing's top executive declared on 24 April that the battery problem which has grounded the 787 fleet for three months will be largely resolved by mid-May, but he still seems uncertain how the effort to resolve the crisis should be characterised.
When a financial analyst questioned the complexity of the battery kit installation, Boeing chairman, president and chief executive James McNerney all but dismissed the concern. "This is not a big one," he says. It also isn't "rocket science" and "not a long pole in any tent", he adds.
That may seem overly casual terms to describe a solution Boeing says has consumed more than 200,000 labour hours during a three-month period, an effort equivalent to the amount of time the US Federal Aviation Administration says its staff devoted to the entire, seven-year certification process of the 787.
But McNerney may have a point. If the fix is as "straightforward" and "permanent" as Boeing has insisted, the grounding and delivery suspension imposed by a pair of lithium-ion battery overheating incidents in January will swiftly fade into an embarrassing, but relatively painless, footnote in the programme's history.
The path to recovering the 787's reputation is already under way. Pre-deployed teams of Boeing mechanics have already installed strategically located new battery kits on 10 delivered aircraft and nine 787s that have rolled off the production line since mid-January.
Boeing has also never produced 787s faster, having initiated a rate increase to seven per month recently. That is scheduled to climb to 10 per month by the end of the year, and could even grow beyond that.
Moreover, Boeing has so far survived the battery episode apparently without losing a single 787 order or customer, nor with any great movement to its share price. Although not contractually obligated to compensate airlines for schedule disruptions and delivery delays caused by the groundings, McNerney says Boeing will use a "variety of ways" to smooth things over with airlines.
The overall impact on the 787's bottom line has not been disclosed but is "minimal", says Boeing chief financial officer Greg Hayes. Boeing actually reduced research and development spending in the first quarter despite factoring in the total estimated costs of the 787 battery redesign effort, Hayes says. The overall cost will be added to the 787 accounting block of 1,100 aircraft, yielding only a tiny increase in the aircraft's unit costs.
In fact, Boeing still thinks it can accelerate the break-even point on a per-unit basis for the 787 programme, Hayes says, meaning it could occur within two years.
Meanwhile, Boeing is also moving forward on two new development programmes that could quickly move conversation away from the 787's battery woes. With the Paris air show looming in June, McNerney says the launch of the double-stretch 787-10X could happen soon. The re-winged and re-engined 777X could also be launched by the end of the year, he adds.
However, the lessons of the 787 grounding could still resonate as Boeing moves forward on new programmes. Introducing lithium-ion batteries, among the least heralded of the 787's innovations in the use of electrical power and composite structure, proved far more costly and complicated than Boeing ever envisioned.
The response to the battery grounding, if anything, highlights the company's strategic shift during the past year to a less aggressive approach. Only 12 months ago, Boeing was still actively considering unveiling the 737 Max.
McNerney emphasises the company now seeks to "harvest" the technologies pioneered on the 787 programme for decades to come.
On the 787-10X, 777X and 737 Max, McNerney says, "there is not a lot of invention".
The "bleeding-edge" investments made on the 787 during the past decade can be ported over into new derivatives under development in this decade, he says, allowing sharp increases in capability at a fraction of the cost of a new aircraft programme.
The trade-off is a familiar one for Boeing. After delivering the 777 in 1995, the company focused on derivatives for nearly a decade until it launched another all-new aircraft with the 787. Company executives have blamed many of the supply-chain and design errors that plagued the 787 on the failure to follow-up on the 777 while the lessons were still fresh.
It is an issue even McNerney acknowledges is a risk for his successors, although he thinks Boeing's invention mode could be on pause for much longer than a decade this time.
"I think we may be in an era where we can absorb somewhat less risk and still deliver a lot of performance," he says.
"Thirty years from now, will there be some new technology that we'll all wrestle with? Probably. Will there be enough people in Boeing that are here today that will remember the lessons learned from the 787? I hope so. I'm old. I'll be on a beach somewhere then."
Meanwhile, Boeing and the FAA have concluded that a flying 787 was in no danger of a catastrophic fire in January despite an overheating main battery that prompted the flightcrew to perform an emergency landing.
FAA air transport certification manager Ali Bahrami and Boeing vice-president and 787 chief project engineer Michael Sinnett agreed at a 23 April fact-finding hearing that the All Nippon Airways flight was never at risk of greater damage following the battery malfunction.
"It appears that the aircraft was not put in any danger," Bahrami told the hearing hosted by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). Sinnett was then asked by an NTSB official if that was his position as well. "Yes," he replied, "it is."
The statements revealed a continued division between the NTSB on one side and Boeing and the FAA on the other over the seriousness of the 787 battery incidents in January, even as the fleet has been cleared to return to service despite the absence of a root cause.
Sinnett was careful to say that an overheating battery caused by a short-circuit is an issue Boeing takes "very seriously".
Bahrami, meanwhile, concedes that the FAA was more concerned about the frequency of the two failures less than 10 days apart. That "surprised" the FAA staff who had approved Boeing's recommendation to certificate the aircraft as airworthy only 15 months before the battery incidents.
At the same time, both officials said there was no evidence to suggest the aircraft was at risk of catastrophic damage. In the case of the ANA incident, no flames or smoke were reported and thermal damage was limited to the immediate area around the battery box.
The FAA and Boeing also downplayed the incident on 7 January involving a parked Japan Airlines 787 in Boston. It was the only incident in which flames were detected, but the flames did not cause any damage to surrounding systems and primary structure and were themselves not the result of an exploding battery. Instead, the flames were generated by a short-circuit that formed in wires attached to the overheating battery box.
The NTSB members focused on why two such incidents occurred within 50,000 flight hours of the 787 fleet, when the FAA special conditions to certificate the aircraft's lithium-ion batteries required no more than one incident in 10 million flight hours.

I made these cute little Dia de los Muertos figurines. I have been waiting rather impatiently to find a cigar box to put them in. I recently got a 1963 Chevy Nova, so I can gave a gas efficient second driver. Under the seat was a cigar box full of the same business card. The Nova came from out of state, so I now may have a lead on the previous owner, which is very cool. All the missing pieces are cosmically coming together.

Best Gazpacho in New York
After having spent a year in Spain, I came back to New York CRAVING a good bowl of Gazpacho. The family I lived with used to make it from scratch, and although it's one of the most SIMPLE things to make, I want to find a place that will make a nice, pungent, silky bowl. Of course I could make it myself, but sometimes you just want someone else to make it for you...any recommendations?

Washington DC
UNDER attack from all sides over its proposals to limit air pollution caused by microscopic particles of toxic dust, the US Environmental Protection Agency is stepping up its research on particulates in a bid to end the squabbling.
In November, the EPA proposed rules to restrict PM2.5s, airborne particles measuring 2.5 micrometres in diameter or less. They state that city and state governments will be forced to impose controls on polluting industries and traffic if 24-hour average concentrations of PM2.5s rise above 50 micrograms per cubic metre of air. The rules were drawn up following a successful lawsuit from the American Lung Association (ALA), based in Washington DC, which argued that the EPA had failed in its duty to review air quality standards.
The EPA proposals are now open for public comment, and may be revised before their eventual adoption in June. Few people appear happy with the ...

Hooded Menace Signs To Relapse
Hooded Menace, which takes influence from 80's era Candlemass, Cathedral, Paradise Lost, Asphyx, and Black Sabbath, has previously release two full length albums as well as split releases with Coffins, Asphyx, and more. The band recently made its U.S, live debut this spring with performances as part of Maryland Deathfest (Baltimore), Chaos in Tejas (Austin), and Doom in June (Las Vegas). The band has now officially announced its signing with Relapse Records.
Hooded Menace guitarist Lasse Pyykko commented on the signing: "We're very excited about signing with Relapse Records! This seems like a logical next step for the band. Of course we are still going to release 7"s and such with smaller labels too because we love doing that. As for the full length album, now we're going have all the support, promotion, and distribution we could possibly hope at this stage. It's pretty amazing to be part of the label with such a long and remarkable history. Relapse has released many albums that we are big fans of. We are stoked about leaving our heavily and deeply stamped mark to that long, significant list of great music."
Hooded Menace has confirmed a handful of Finnish tour dates, including performances as part of the Ilosaarirock Festival and Tuska Festival (w/ Killing Joke, At The Gates, Amorphis) in July. The band will also open for doom legends Saint Vitus in Helsinki on August 27th.
Stay tuned for more Hooded Menace news to come shortly.

That's one of the reasons why I do like Dennis. He seems to be really trying to understand things and not just throwing his hands in the air and saying "fuck you, what do you know you internet nerd!" Dennis has traits that remind me of myself, and much like you, I'd rather try to help spare him from years of trauma when had someone set me straight, I would have avoided it myself. That is what friends do after all; share their life experiences to try and help their friends when they are in a time of need or misunderstanding.
