European Neighbourhood Partnership Instrument (ENPI)
The Financial Mechanism
CES-MED is a programme financed by the European Neighbourhood Partnership Instrument (ENPI), which is the main financial mechanism through which assistance is given to the European Neighbourhood Policy countries. ENPI has been operational since 1 January 2007 and is the main source of financing for the 17 partner countries (ten Mediterranean and six East European countries, plus Russia). It replaces earlier financing instruments including TACIS for the East and MEDA to the South and builds most directly on the MED-PACT programme.
European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) - The countries
The European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) covers 10 countries in the South (Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Palestine, Syria, and Tunisia) and 6 in the East (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine plus Russia. Of these,
Presentation of ENPI
The ENPI - Supporting Reform
The European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument – known as the ENPI – is the main financial mechanism through which assistance is given to the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) Partner Countries, as well as Russia. It is the cooperation instrument, managed by DG EuropeAid, through which decisions taken on a political level are turned into actions on the ground.
Operational since January 2007, the ENPI has replaced the MEDA instrument that was supporting the Euro-Med Partnership and the TACIS instrument for the Eastern neighbours, as well as other financial mechanisms.
This assistance aims at building relations, supporting the reform efforts undertaken by the partners themselves, and promoting the priorities agreed with each country after consultation with the governments and other actors. Assistance priorities can be found in numerous documents, including:
- The country reports.
- The National Indicative Programmes (available from here)
- Priorities identified in the Action Plans.
- Detailed Annual Programmes East.
- Detailed Annual Programmes South.
- For Russia all relevant links can be found here.
- The overarching aim of the ENPI is to create an area of shared values, stability and prosperity, enhanced cooperation and deeper economic and regional integration by covering a wide range of cooperation areas.
It is a more flexible and policy driven mechanism, as the allocation of funds depends on a country's needs and absorption capacity and its level of implementation of agreed reforms.
As from 2014 the ENPI will be replaced by the European Neighbourhood Instrument (ENI), which will provide increased support to 16 partner countries to the East and South of the EU's borders.
The state of relations and documents for each partner country can be reached from here and for Russia here and here. Reference documents can be found here and for Russia here.
The 16 ENPI Partner Countries are:
- ENPI South - Algeria, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Occupied Palestinian Territory, Syria, Tunisia
- ENPI East - Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine, Russia
- Russia is receiving funding from the ENPI even though relations with this neighbour country are not developed through the ENP, but through a strategic partnership covering four "common spaces".
- Libya has an observer status in the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership and is eligible for funding under the ENPI. Negotiations for an EU-Libya Framework Agreement got underway in November 2008.
According to the ENPI regulation, the objective of the ENPI is to provide community assistance for the development of an area of prosperity and good neighbourliness involving the European Union and the partner countries and territories.
"Community assistance shall promote enhanced cooperation and progressive economic integration between the European Union and the partner countries and, in particular, the implementation of partnership and cooperation agreements, association agreements or other existing and future agreements. It shall also encourage partner countries' efforts aimed at promoting good governance and equitable social and economic development."
The Funding
The overall allocation for the ENPI, which is increased compared to the past, amounted to almost €12 billion for the period 2007-2013.
The largest percentage of ENPI funds will be used for bilateral actions, that is country initiatives. Funds are also allocated to the two ENPI regions and regional and cross-border initiatives and mechanisms. The funding for regional programmes allocated to the two regions for the period 2011-2013 is: ENPI South €288 million; ENPI East €348.57 million (See regional funding below for more detail).
A number of innovative ENPI components and tools, give further substance to the EU aim of avoiding new dividing lines:
- Cross Border Cooperation (CBC) under which it finances joint programmes bringing together regions of EU member states and partner countries sharing a common border. CBC is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). Two types of programmes are established: bilateral programmes covering a common land border (or short sea crossing), and multilateral programmes covering a sea basin.
- The Governance Facility which provides additional resources to those partners that have proved their will to carry forward essential reforms agreed in their Action Plans. An indicative €50 million per year have been set aside for this component.
- The Twinning initiative and the TAIEX (Technical Assistance and Information Exchange) instrument which encourage cooperation between the public administration of a partner country and the equivalent institution of a member state, aiming to upgrade and modernize institutions in the beneficiary states.
- In addition, the Neighbourhood Investment Facility (NIF) funds projects of common interest, focusing primarily on energy, environment and transport. The EC allocated €700 million to the Facility, for the period 2007-2013, and asked Member States to gradually match this contribution, to maximize the leverage of loans.
An Inter-Regional Programme (IRP) has also been established by EuropeAid to support partners in the ENPI Southern and Eastern regions, as some aid activities can be managed more efficiently and flexibly at inter-regional level. Some €757.6 million have been set aside for the IRP for the period 2011-2013.
In addition, the European Investment Bank assists the partner countries.
In the South, it does so through its Facility for Euro-Mediterranean Investment and Partnership (FEMIP), which brings together the whole range of services provided by the EIB to assist the economic development of the Mediterranean partner countries. Operational since October 2002, FEMIP is now a key player in the financial partnership between Europe and the Mediterranean, and has invested €10 billion between October 2002 and December 2009. In the East, the EIB has earmarked €3.7 billion for the partner countries for the period 2007-2013.
Tenders under EC assistance programmes are open to interested parties from the EU Member States, the candidate and potential candidate countries and from the neighbourhood countries themselves, and are awarded in line with standard EC procurement rules.
Regional Funding
EU cooperation with partners on a regional basis, as well as cooperation amongst the partners themselves, is considered by the EU as an important political objective. It complements national assistance programmes, addresses challenges with a regional dimension and promotes cooperation amongst partners on issues of mutual interest.
Issues such as protection of the environment, tackling sea pollution, enhancing the role of women, fighting organized crime and terrorism, are cross-cutting and have no
- For the ENPI South, funding of about €288 million has been earmarked for 2011-2013.
- For the ENPI East, funding of €348.57 million has been earmarked for the period 2011- 2013.
- The main co-operation fields with the Eastern partners are: Transport; Energy;Sustainable management of natural resources; Border and migration management, the fight against transnational organized crime and customs;People-to-people activities; elimination of landmines, explosive remnants of war, small arms and light weapons.
The main cooperation fields with the South were defined since the start of the Euro-Med Partnership and the Barcelona declaration. They cover: Political and Security Dialogue (justice, freedom & security, migration, political dialogue); Economic and Financial Partnership (economy, energy,environment, information society, transport); Social, Cultural and Human Partnership (audiovisual & media, culture, education & training, gender issues, youth, civil society and local authorities).
From the ENPI to the ENI: from 2014, the new European Neighbourhood Instrument
In the context of the renewed approach to the European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) outlined on 25 May 2011, the ENPI will from 2014 be replaced by the European Neighbourhood Instrument (ENI), which will provide increased support to 16 partner countries to the East and South of the EU's borders.
The proposed ENI budget for the period 2014-2020 is €18.2 billion, 40 per cent up on the amount available under the ENPI from 2007-2013.
The new instrument will be increasingly policy-driven and provide for greater differentiation, more flexibility, stricter conditionality and incentives for best performers, reflecting the ambition of each partnership.
Building on the achievements of the ENPI,the ENI will contribute to strengthening bilateral relations with partner countries and bring tangible benefits to both the EU and its partners in areas such as democracy and human rights, the rule of law, good governance and sustainable development.
The ENI will continue to provide the bulk of funding to the European Neighbourhood countries, essentially through bilateral, regional and cross border co-operation programmes.
Announcing the proposed new Instrument in December 2011, EU Commissioner for Enlargement and Neighbourhood Policy Štefan Füle said: "Through the new European Neighbourhood Instrument support to our neighbours will become faster and more flexible; allowing for increased differentiation and incentives for best performers. The new ENI is the complement of our more ambitious approach towards our neighbours that we outlined in the Joint Communication on the ENP released in May 2011. It is part of the overall response to the evolution of our relationships with our neighbours and also a direct answer to the revolutionary movements to the south of the EU."

NEW YORK (Sep. 4)
The prediction that Judge Louis C. Levinthal of Philadelphia will be elected president of the Zionist Organization of America at the ZOA annual convention opening Saturday in Cincinnati was made today in a message sent to New York by Dr. James G. Heller, Cincinnati.
Dr. Heller, who is to formally open the Cincinnati convention said in his message: "I am delighted at the news that Judge Levinthal is available for the presidency of the ZOA. Few men merit and posses the esteem Zionists have for him. He would make an honest, devoted and fearless leader. I predict that the Cincinnati convention will elect him by an overwhelming majority."
More than 1,500 delegates representing Zionist units in virtually every state of the Union will participate in the ZOA-convention. The conclave, which will last four days, will discuss the status of Palestine after the ### well as proposals for strengthening of the Zionist movement in this country.

In Belize temperatures are comparable to many places in the USA during the summer months.
Ocean breezes and the shade of the coconut trees offer refuge and comfort along coastal
areas. Inland, the jungle canopy, rolling hills and fresh water rivers and waterfalls
provide relief from the heat.
For more information on Weather in Belize, click here.
Back to Top
Belize has two seasons, wet and dry. The summer months are in the wet season,
but rainfall varies significantly by location in the country. Periodic showers,
usually at night, make this the "green season". The rain showers during the day
are usually brief and intermittent and do not normally hamper outdoor activities.

Yes, it is hurricane season from June until mid-November. However, historically,
most hurricanes occur between August and October in Belize. Hurricanes form over a period
of several days and even weeks. The path of the storm is tracked and predicted using the latest
technology which enables the areas to be affected ample time to prepare for the storm. Thanks
to NEMO (National Emergency Management Organization), Belize has a thorough emergency plan ready
to be enacted in the event of a hurricane.
For more information on Extreme Weather in Belize click here.
For more information on the National Emergency Preparedness Plan click here.
Contrary to summer travel in the US and other parts of the world, Belize is
not crowded during the summer months. Actually, with a population of only 250,000 people
it is never crowded, even with tourists! The "high-season" for travelers in Belize is during
the fall and winter months, when it is cold in the north. The summer months are the slower
times of the tourist season and thus offer discounts, deals and lower rates for travelers!
The "high season" for tourism is November until April. The "low season"
is from May until October. At most hotels, rates begin dropping May 1st and are not
raised again until November. The goal is to make travel in Belize accessible to everyone
who expresses interest in visiting our shores. You can experience "more for less" and stretch
your money further if you choose to travel during the "low season" of the summer months.

Until now bike thieves have had it fairly good. Not only do they have a big pool of potential targets, many of them badly secured, but they also have a big audience to sell to. Thanks to websites such as eBay and Gumtree they can reach out and make big profits from expensive bikes. While thieves were busy getting rich, cyclists were out of pocket and the police were taking a back foot in stopping the onslaught.
Today this is set to change. A new 30 strong police force will now be guarding London's bikes. They will be tackling both bike theft as well as vandalism.
As you will have guessed from reading this blog, I'm rarely a negative person. Therefore, my response to this news was to rejoice! My friend on the other hand, who likes to provide me with the negative viewpoint, pointed out that 30 people for the whole of London is hardly enough. But I'll explain why he is wrong.
By tackling the organised side of the crime and catching a few of the key players you will see a major reduction in bike thefts. As long as these people are properly sentenced. The new team will be using methods such as police stings and covert operations that are likely to target these key players.
There will also be a renewed, and likely much more successful, effort to target thieves selling bikes on websites such as Gumtree and eBay. This will involve working with the websites to make it harder for people to list bikes without their full details and also targeting sellers. By removing the thieves access to a large audience you make it far more difficult for them to sell their stolen bikes.
Steve Burton, TfL's Director of Community Safety, Enforcement and Policing, said:
"London's a great place to get around on a bike, but the experience of having your bicycle stolen or damaged, or the fear that it will happen, stops many people from cycling – which makes us even more determined to crack down on cycle theft in the Capital.
The new Cycle Task Force policing team will be dedicated to cracking down on bike thieves but will also work with Londoners to show them the steps they can take, such as ensuring they lock their bicycles securely, to help prevent themselves from becoming victims of theft or vandalism."
While this is very good news for the capital and for encouraging more cyclists I recommend that for now you buy yourself a good lock such as the Kryptonite and know how to lock your bike correctly.
Hopefully one day we will be able to secure our bikes with one lock and know for certain it will be there when we return. This police force seems like a very good step in the right direction to achieving this.

What are archives?
An introduction to the main types of archives and archives service.
Types of archive
Its important to remember that any document on which records are kept or evidence can be found can be considered archival. You might already be creating or looking after archival material of your own - photographs from childhood, letters from old friends, diaries you have written in and e-mails you have sent. All of these are archives in their own way. They build up a history of your life. Each item records the people you knew, the places you went and the events that affected you most.
Let's take a look at some of the main types of archives you might find:
- Letters
- Diaries
- Minute Books
- Registers
- Account Books
- Maps
- Plans and Drawings
- Photographs
- Deeds
- Electronic Records
What is an archives service?
An archives building is the location in which archives are stored in special conditions and where researchers can come to access those archives. The archives service is run from the archives building and is set up by an organisation to preserve archives and make them available to the public.
Types of archives service
Ireland has many different types of archives service including:
- The National Archives of Ireland, Dublin
- The Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, Belfast
- The Manuscripts Department of the National Library of Ireland
- The Royal Irish Academy
- The Chester Beatty Library
- Local Authority Archives
- Religious / Church Archives
- University Archives
- Business / Corporate Archives
- Specialist Archives (Irish Architectural Archive, UCD Delargy Centre for Irish Folklore, National Photographic Archive, Irish Traditional Music Archive, National Gallery of Ireland Archives)

Vote him out
Our current Town Supervisor, Harley Doles, once again put on a disturbing display at this week's Town Board meeting.
When a private citizen got up to speak during public comment to complain that the Supervisor had attributed the posting of images on the Internet to her, the Supervisor would not let the citizen speak, then began his tirade and full on adult tantrum.
It was quite a spectacle, and not in a good way.
This was just another one of many such troubling outbursts from our Town Supervisor. He has been a disruptive force ever since his appointment back in 2006.
Fortunately, we will all have the opportunity to vote him out in November by voting again for United Monroe.
None of us should have to endure another minute of his out of control behavior.

"Birds have something to tell us."
THE MESSENGER – A film by Su Rynard
Television Premiere – documentary Channel – May 31, 2016 – 9 PM EDT
On the heels of a wildly successful North American tour, THE MESSENGER is coming to documentary Channel on May 31st 2016.
With over 100 screens and 25 cinemas in the USA and Canada respectively, THE MESSENGER is an international story with high stakes and global consequences, chronicling the struggle of songbirds as they survive the turbulent conditions brought about by humans. The award-winning film – accolades listed below – mesmerizes audiences with stunning slow-motion sequences of songbirds in night flight, providing a unique eye into the beauty of the songbirds and the messages they carry.
"The Messenger is the most scientifically sound and beautiful film about songbirds I have ever seen. Your heart will be opened to their plight, and your brain to the action you can take to help save them," says Steven Price, President of Bird Studies Canada.
Akin to the disappearance of the honeybee or the melting of glaciers, the film argues that the global demise of songbirds signals an uncertain shift in an already fragile ecosystem. THE MESSENGER explores our deep-seated connection to birds, while warning that the uncertain fate of songbirds might mirror our own.
"In ancient times, humans looked to the flights and songs of birds to predict the future, now the songbirds are disappearing at an alarming rate, and this points to changes in our world. Now is a critical time for our climate and ecosystems." Says Canadian director Su Rynard. "Today, once again, birds have something to tell us, and I wanted to amplify their message."
The scientists, activists and bird enthusiasts featured in THE MESSENGER bring us face-to-face with the beauty of these airborne music-makers and with the remarkable variety of human-made perils that they face: the destruction of our forests, our lethal architecture, predatory pets, and the alarming use of pesticides. All of these are causing the disappearance of songbirds at a disquieting pace.
"The Messenger is a beautifully crafted film with an important & urgent message. We are really pleased to be the broadcast home for The Messenger; it feels right on doc channel." Says Bruce Cowley, Creative Head, documentary Channel.
Accolades for THE MESSENGER include:
- Best Conservation Film, Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival, 2015
- Top Ten Audience Award, Hot Docs 2015
- Special Jury Award, Visions of Nature/Voices of Nature Environmental Film Festival 2016
- Special Mention for Best Documentary, CinemAmbiente, Italy 2015
- Best Environmental Film Prize, Festival de l'Oiseau et de la Nature, Abbeville Cedex/France 2016
- Winner: Best of Fest, International Wildlife Film Festival Missoula, Montana 2016
- Winner: Best Theatrical Feature, International Wildlife Film Festival Missoula, Montana 2016
- Nominated for Best Cinematography in a Feature Documentary, Canadian Screen Awards 2016
- Nominated for Best Editing in Feature Documentary, Canadian Cinema Editors Award 2016
The Messenger is an international treaty co-production between Canada and France, produced by SongbirdSOS Productions Inc. and Films à Cinq/ARTE.

At the Physician and the Pharmaceutical Industry conference hosted by the RCP in February I was encouraged by how much talk there was about collaboration between industry and the health service. Speaker after speaker, from journal editor to academic, clinician and industry representative, held partnership as central to the survival of research and development, clinical trials and healthcare delivery in the UK.
But from the breakout sessions it was evident that we're still at the start of a long journey. One academic described time spent in industry as 'career limiting' and a physician who worked for a pharmaceutical company said he had been asked when he stopped being a proper doctor. Clearly this kind of perception doesn't do much to support a positive attitude to collaboration. The external environment is characterised by radical structural change to the NHS, a different economic reality and increasing stakeholder expectations about how industry and the NHS operates. Getting the relationship right between industry and its stakeholders has never been more crucial.
At the ABPI we've been working on what we can do about it.
Over the last couple of years industry has taken some very practical steps to dispel some of the myths that don't do us any favours. We've taken a decision that from 1 May our reps will no longer provide branded promotional aids such as pens, pads and mugs to healthcare professionals. We don't believe that clinicians have been making decisions about prescribing based on freebies, but the changes are a strong symbol of an industry's desire to move away from the perception of a transactional culture between industry and clinician. We hope it lights the way to more profound change. Equally significant, we're going to collect and declare information about payments to healthcare professionals for services such as speaker fees, consultancy and sponsorship as well as declaring the number of health professionals a company works with. The first annual declaration of payments will be made in 2013 for payments made in 2012.
So it's really helpful that 15 leading healthcare organisations, including Royal Colleges, have signed a statement supporting these changes to our Code of Practice. We believe it means that our willingness to be more transparent and open with our healthcare colleagues has been taken seriously and we're delighted to have such strong support. We are determined to keep the positive trajectory on course.
Change – really significant change – is the predominant feature of the current healthcare landscape and collaboration between companies, academia and the health systems is increasingly central to medicine discovery, development and ultimately, improved patient care. Industry is determined to ensure that not only is it a partner in the development of new medicines and the delivery of care, but that it plays an equal role in developing a new value system.

By being careful to distinguish the blank nodes (a data structure) from the things they denote. This is one reason why stopped calling them "anonymous resources" btw. The way to figure out if two b-nodes denote the same resource is to do some of the reasoning licensed by the OWL spec. In the simplest case, if you have the same property/value pair ascribed and the property is an owl:InverseFunctionalProperty, then the two nodes should denote same thing. OWL is big and complicated and there are doubtless many other aspects to identity reasoning via OWL that might be relevant, but this is probably the most common case. See http://rdfweb.org/mt/foaflog/archives/000039.html for lengthier explanation with a bias to how we've done this stuff in FOAF. DanReceived on Wednesday, 29 October 2003 13:23:20 UTC

Incident Management
Incident Management automates the process of reporting and tracking an incident or groups of incidents. HelpDesk agents can open incident records to document and flag problems with software, equipment, facilities, network problems, and so on. Furthermore, agents match the incident against possible known errors, assign the incident based on both impact and urgency, review the recommended priority, and set the correct priority. In addition, HelpDesk agents give initial support—that is, provide quick fixes if appropriate. If a fix or quick fix is not possible, agents escalate the incident to the appropriate group.
Managers and technicians track the status and activities performed to achieve resolution as the categorized incidents moves through the stages of problem, known error, and a request for change.
Siebel HelpDesk can be configured to automatically create incident records by integrating with Oracle Enterprise Manager. For more information on creating incident records automatically, see Configuration Instructions for ACR 364 in Siebel Maintenance Release Guide, Version 8.0.0.x, Rev A.
Figure 2 illustrates the HelpDesk agent workflow as described in the preceding paragraphs for working with Incident Management.

Are you on the lookout for a new residence in Mesa but don't know where to start? For a novice, this could be a daunting task but then, there's a home inspector here who will make the process of selection easier for you.
Going out to see houses that you could be living in for quite a while necessitates preparedness. Part of being armed as you search for your future abode is having with you a home inspector (Mold Inspection Phoenix) who is your best guide; someone who will lead you to the right choice.
Sometimes, the best looking houses turn out to be disappointments because of hidden flaws such as bad plumbing. Knowing that some repairs have to be made through the inspector's (Home Inspection Scottsdale) report will give you bargaining power. You could have the seller repair the fixtures himself or you could counter offer a lower price for the house to compensate for future repairs.
However, you could very well decide to do the inspection yourself and if you know what to look for, you could be successful at it. To help you do this job well (Home Inspector Mesa), here are some of the things to look out for.
Garage driveways should slope at least two inches (5 cm.) below the entrance. This way, water will drain away from the garage. You wouldn't want to be flooded in everytime you wash your car now, would you?
The same is true with the yard. It should gradually slant down to the curb to allow water to flow away from the house. In case this can not be avoided as with a house downhill, a shallow trench called a swale could be constructed along the perimeter. Here, the collected water will run off safely away from the property (Home Inspector Scottsdale).
Looking at the house itself, the first thing you should scrutinize is the foundation. Make sure (Home Inspection Mesa) there are no cracks and signs of crumbling. These could be indications of basic weakness as are mildew growth and water stains. If water can seep in through the foundation then there must be a crack for it to go through.
The foundation (Home Inspection Glendale) should also be at least three feet away from plants. More distance is needed with trees that have large roots which could damage the whole house.
Looking upward, the roofline should be level with no sagging at all. Shingles should be flat and you should see to it that there are no missing pieces (Home Inspection Gilbert). Corners should be level and without bends over the edges.
There should be securely attached eavestroughs (Mold Inspection Mesa) for water to flow easily into downspouts directing water towards the ground. Look out for gaps in joints and cracks along the spout.
With flat roofs, you may seek the permission of the owner for a thorough inspection (Home Inspector Glendale). Cracks and molds are not good signs. This means that water seeps through into the house causing a number of problems.
The interior of the house will be a more complicated aspect to look over, so you should really have a professional do the job for you. Plumbing, heating, airconditioning and electrical matters are best left to the experts.
In Mesa, a home inspector is ready to help select the perfect house for you and those who are dear to you.

Five is always better than one, especially when they have accents, tattoos and pull the craziest pranks.
The Janoskians (Just Another Name Of Silly Kids In Another Nation) are made up of five young Aussies: Beau Brooks, Jai Brooks, Luke Brooks, Daniel Sahyounie and James Yammouni who started their YouTube channel back 2011. They began by doing crazy videos around Melbourne, Australia and as each month passed by, their view count began to grow as did their fan base the Janoskinators. With their outrageous pranks and the news that they will soon have their own full-length movie (!!), who better to be our #ManCrushMonday than the Janoskians?
Don't think they're a suitable #MCM? Read on because you might fall in love.
Those Tattoos
Nothing gets my attention quicker than a guy with tattoos.
And yes, this one was just an excuse to post this stunning photo of these boys.
They're pranksters
Call them crazy, but I call them pranksters. These boys are always up for trying something new in their videos. Whether that be getting cars to stop by pretending there's a rope in the middle of a street or doing awkward things on a train, they've never failed to put out an hilarious video.
And remember that time when Beau try to sniff a condom up his nose with our own Simon Mohos?
They love their fans
I can truly say that these five boys ADORE their fans. From tweeting them, doing follow sprees and trying to meet them, they know they're fans are the reason why they are where they are now and they aren't afraid to show how grateful they are.
One fan even proposed to Luke! It's so cute that we couldn't help but squeal when watching this video! Props to this girl!
Their fan accounts are amazing
These accounts are their way of reaching out to fans. They also let it slip where they'll be in order for their fans to meet them. I can say this has worked because it was the way I got to meet them! But now to decipher which account is truly them on it?
Life of a fangirl must be so fucken hard
— Luke Brooks (@luke_brooks) May 31, 2013
That's for you to decide!
These boys wear their hearts on t heir sleeves and they aren't afraid to tell each other how much they love one another. Some may find it "outrageous" while others find it cute.
Whether it be between blood-brothers:
We'd all like a Bromance like these boys, amiright?
They're beautiful just the way they are
The Janoskians want everyone to remember that you don't need to be a size zero to be beautiful They love their fans regardless of what they look like!
I don't need a girl who worries about their thigh gap.
— Beau Brooks (@BrooksBeau) January 4, 2014
Are you in love yet? Tell us who's your fave boy or if you love them all equally!
I just can't get over that Beau Brooks!

Delegates at the 43rd Assembly reaffirmed the World Health Organization's Revised Drug Strategy and called for a strengthening of the Action Programme on Essential Drugs. Denmark stated their support for the Action Programme and Switzerland stated that the evaluation produced useful recommendations for its continued success. Other countries including the United States, Germany, Zambia and Japan contributed perspectives on ways to further strengthen the Action Programme. The proposal to strengthen the Action Programme focused on areas such as coordination, rational use, advocacy, operational research and management. Other highlights from the debate included the Netherlands' assertion that developed countries have a duty to prevent substandard pharmaceutical exports from reaching developing countries, and Zambia's statement that it had become the focus of a WHO/African Preferential Trade Area initiative to increase quality control and rational use. The summary of the Assembly also mentions the points made by Germany and the United States regarding each individual country's right to establish their own drugs list and programmes. Final discussion points included requests for research of traditional medicines, and new ideas on the role of the pharmacist.

I learned this a while back and said to myself "Self, you should share this." It's my go-to, tried-and-true, never fail way to recolor something quickly. Enjoy!
Digital | Quick & Clean Recoloring

Great tip! Thank you!
Awesome – thanks, Peppermint!
This one is *almost* as mind blowing as your drop shadow tutorial. :) Thank you very much for sharing this tip, I know I will put this to use!
great – super – thanks !
love it! thank you for sharing this :)
That's great, but for solid colour changes, who not just go to Edit, Fill, and then fill with whatever colour? If you make sure the "Preserve Transparency" checkbox is checked only the "filled in" parts of the layer gets coloured.
This is how I recolor WA, brushes, etc too! I've done this since it was shared on your forum :)
Huh…. who knew! not me! But, now I've learned something new today. Thanks hon!
Very cool! I usually went to Layer style and did a color overlay- but this looks even easier!
I just select a color with the color picker for the foreground color on the left, click on the icon on the layer palette and hold the command key on my mac to bring up marching ants then click option delete to fill the selection with my chosen foreground color (command delete to fill with while or any other background color).
I hate to be a party pooper… ;-}
But try ALT SHIFT DELETE {on a Mac} and voila, instant recoloring!!! {it uses your foreground color}. I've been using this method for years!
Haha, yes! I know that works, too. I actually use this method more when I want to add two colors to something and in my original video I did a piece of word art with multiple words in a few different colors at the end, then it felt sort of long and redundant so I cut that part out. Probably would have made more sense then, huh?
Thank you! For whatever reason, the lock method is not working for me but THIS (ALT SHIFT DELETE) DID! Even on a PC! :)
Thank you so much for sharing! I love learning new tips and techniques! You Rock girl!
THank you so much….I have always done something way more complex! Awesome!
You keep it up now, undetarsnd? Really good to know.
Great tip. I was doing it like you did it before.

WEATHER warnings issued last week for the Koro Sea and Lau waters following wind and rain from severe Tropical Cyclone Ian have now been cancelled.
Fiji is officially clear of the category four cyclone, confirmed acting director of the Fiji Meteorological Service Aminiasi Tuidraki.
"Fiji's weather is all clear, strong wind warnings that were for Koro Sea and Lau waters have been cancelled this morning (yesterday morning)," Mr Tuidraki said.
"It was cancelled as the wind gradient has slackened due to TC Ian moving further away from Fiji even now to the south of Tonga."
He said although all warnings had been officially cancelled, the movements of the cyclone would continue to be monitored until it was no longer within Fiji's jurisdiction.
"Fiji MET Services are still monitoring TC Ian as it is still within our area of the Nadi Regional Specialised Meteorological Centre in Tropical Cyclone warning and forecasting.
"Once it reaches 25 south latitude tonight (last night) we will hand over the warning to New Zealand as it enters their area of responsibilities.
"TC Ian will gradually weaken as it enters cooler waters and an area of strong upper wind shear."

A Dublin man who raped his 65-year-old mother on Mother's Day has been sentenced to 15 years.
Imposing the sentence, Mr Justice Barry White said this was one of the most horrendous if not the most horrendous rape case he has ever encountered as a judge or legal practitioner.
At around 11pm on Mother's Day in March 2008 the 45-year-old called round to his mother's house, poured drinks, put on a Joe Dolan CD and then raped her.
He was convicted by a jury last July. He insists to this day that the sex was consensual and that one thing had 'led to another'.
His mother, now 70, was on a number of medications and told the jury she must have blacked out during the attack.
Today the court heard her son absconded to the UK after he was charged and that he has a previous manslaughter conviction for killing a woman.
Mr Justice Barry White imposed a 15 year sentence with two and a half years suspended.

Taking the train from Rome to Florence is simply so convenient that we had not doubt this was how we will get there for our tour of Florence.
Now that there are two train operators that get you from Rome to the center of Florence, it really doesn't make sense to drive there unless you really have a good reason too. Even then, I would think twice. And if you are planning a day-trip, then taking the train is the only logical choice.
Similar to Rome, there are some areas in Florence called ZTL (Zona a Traffico Limitato) which means that traffic is limited to those with a permit. Driving into these areas without one means you will most likely get a fine. Not something you want to deal with.
While this post mainly shares our experience on taking Trenitalia from Termini, the main train station in Rome, to Florence (Santa Maria Novella station), I will also briefly mention Italo, a service launched a few months back.
Booking train tickets online – Trenitalia
[imagebrowser id=10]
At Termini Station
At Termini, check the information board for the platform number and while you may think that's a no-brainer, we saw many travelers who were confused and puzzled.
The information board doesn't list the train number but just the final destination. Looking at the photo below, you see there is no train to Florence but instead it lists Milan, its final destination.
The best way is to check the time of departure and that the final destination is likely in the north. However, once you head to the designated platform, you can double check it there again as they will have the train number listed.
As we got to Termini 30 minutes before our departure, the platform number still was not listed. So wait around the boards as no announcement is made. It was only 15-20 minutes before the departure time that the platform number was assigned. Once you know the platform, head there and you will see the screen below with the train details. Check to make sure it matches with yours.
On your train ticket, there is also an indication of the carriage number and along the platform, there are numbered signs as to where to wait for your carriage.
From Florence to Rome with Italo
A competitor to Trenitalia, it was launched earlier this year which gives travelers more options. However, as they are new, destinations they presently serve are to main cities. They have already introduced a few more destinations since they launched and more are likely to come.
Their website was easier to use than Trenitalia as I went through the process before payment.
At Italo, the "classes" are called ambiances anddepending on which ambiance you have selected, they have nifty services such as movies, live tv and for an extra cost and on board "cuisine" by Eataly.
Price-wise, they are reasonable but at the end we opted for Trenitalia as they had more time options and the departure was from Termini. Instead, Italo has trains running from Tiburtina and Ostiense, which are still easily accessible by the Metro (underground), to Florence's main station, Santa Maria Novella (SMN). Just that for us, Termini is more convenient.
Italo sounds like they are a step ahead of their competitor and I hope to take them soon to see if they live up to what their claims.
Comforts on Board Trenitalia
As mentioned earlier, we traveled in 2nd class and if you know me, then you would know that 2nd class is decent. I am not a luxury traveler but clean and basic comforts are my main concerns. To show you what I mean, here are some visual proof.
Each seating area has an outlet with small "table" which makes it convenient if you need to plug in your laptop or device to work. But they don't have wireless which is available if you are traveling first class.
I've heard the bathrooms in 1st class are decent but the ones in 2nd class are barely acceptable. No refreshements are served in 2nd class either but there is a cart that goes around where you can buy the usual drinks and snacks.
Day trip from Rome to Florence
We've only done days trip from Rome to Florence – twice to be exact. My sister did it too and so did my cousin. While it probably isn't the best way to see Florence, it is a compromise that has to be taken when you are short on time.
As it is only a 90-minute train ride and the train gets you to the center of Florence, it is an easy day trip to do. To make the most of the day, you would set off early, taking a train at 8.00am which gets you into Florence by 9.30am and the train back around 7.00pm. This will get you back in Rome before 9pm.
Tiring? Definitely but Florence is worth the visit. It's a glimpse but enough to give you an idea of how amazing the place is and to plan another real visit there in the future.
Tip: As you have limited time in Florence, have an itinerary of what you will see and do. Be aware that lines to Duomo, Uffizi and Accademia can be long. If you prefer, tickets can be booked online and make sure it is from the official website.
Ready to head to Florence for the day?
Then start booking the train from Rome to Florence – the sooner the better as that's when you can get some great deals!

LONDON — President Obama's decision to seek congressional approval for a military strike on Syria could open the door to another vote by the British Parliament, which rejected such intervention, senior officials here suggested Sunday.
French lawmakers also seized on Obama's decision as an argument for holding their own vote on armed intervention in Syria.
The delay before a possible strike as Obama makes his case to U.S. lawmakers could give their British counterparts time to consider new evidence pointing toward the Syrian government's culpability in gassing rebel-held neighborhoods in Damascus.
"It opens a very important new opportunity," the chairman of the parliamentary intelligence committee, Malcolm Rifkind, told the BBC. Rifkind, a former British defense secretary, supports force as an option in responding to the Syrian government's alleged chemical attack.
He said Prime Minister David Cameron and opposition leader Ed Miliband should now agree to revive the matter in the House of Commons, which dealt Cameron a shocking defeat Thursday by rejecting his request for an endorsement, in principle, of a military strike against Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Okay, he isn't asking a question, as directed, but Mitt is on fire, doing precisely what he should have done from the start. He grabbed the central issue of economic policy — how to maintain and bolster the middle class. Not going to give too many breaks to the rich. The middle class is hurting. The rest of his speech here is smart, coherent, and passionate. All good, but my guess is that many people tune out after the first few paragraphs. Obama, is lower key than usual tonight. His claim that he has already lowered taxes on the middle class, as promised, effectively doubles down on his larger claim that his policies are working. Real people know, in their pockets, whether that is or is not true. Mitt explains his tax plan with verve and passion — and humor. That line about kids lying and expecting him to believe it is Reaganesque. Obama sounds unsure, and is stuck repeating points from debate prep.
There is a conversation about how numerate Obama really is. He clearly does not have the facility with numbers or tax policy that Romney has. Lawyer vs. Businessman.

Affordable and Charming. Mar 05, 2009
I spent pretty much a lot of time at Old Town White Coffee during our stay in Kota Kinabalu, be it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or to meet up with my friends.
It features mainly this type of kopi tiam that originated from Ipoh, Malaysia. Basically it's called White Coffee because the method used to roast the coffee beans that infuses modern practices and traditional methods.
As for this particular branch of Old Town White Coffee, The place is located within the strip of restaurants at the side where the condominiums are being build. It's quite cozy if you ask me, and there's a smoking area within the strip that's air-conditioned. It's quite disturbing though how the that smoking ground vibrates when a truck passes by. OTWC in 1Borneo also offers free WIFI of their own.
We tried different kinds of food and drinks here. The best one has to be the Nasi Rendang, which I ordered a number of times. Nasi Lemak is my favorite Malaysian food but OTWC's version is just so-so. I've tasted better Nasi Lemak elsewhere.
Another good find here is the Prawn Mee. It's a curry and coconut based noodle soup that's quite similar to Laksa. Their Asam Laksa on the other hand, I didn't like at all.
Of course what would be a review of a coffee shop without talking about their coffee. OTWC's White Coffee is at best like a 3-in-1 coffee. It's quite sweet, so there's no need to add sugar. The Kaya toast is the best (both the traditional one and the thick toast Kaya). Their curry puffs are forgettable, while their blueberry ice cream is heaven.

Alex O'Loughlin was 6 years old when he started studying Shobukai karate in his native Australia. On the first day, he slipped into his pint-size gi with its crisp white belt and bowed before entering the dojo. Inside, he met the sensei, watched the other kids practice their lessons, and couldn't wait to be part of the action. "I picked it up very quickly," he remembers. By the time he was 10, he'd earned a brown belt. "It was a huge part of my life, man," he says. "I wouldn't miss it." But even more important, it was the beginning of a commitment to fitness that has served the 34-year-old actor well throughout his life—not to mention as the star of CBS's turbocharged cop series Hawaii Five-0. Over the years, O'Loughlin has dabbled with other forms of exercise. "In my early 20s, I did a lot of weights. I was huge—closer to 200 pounds," says the 6'1″ actor, who clocks in today at a solid 175. "For lunch I'd have a chicken, a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk, and a bag of chocolate cookies. Then I'd go to the gym and bench 240 pounds. That's a young man's thing." Today, he pulls up to a roadside cafe in Malibu for his MF interview and jumps out of his black Porsche Cayenne, looking tan and happy in a gray T-shirt and khaki cargo shorts, a plastic gallon jug half-filled with water dangling from his hand. It's been a big year for O'Loughlin. "An epic year," he says. After two previous TV series disappointments—2007's vampire-detective drama Moonlight and 2009's even shorter-lived Three Rivers—he's just wrapped his first season of Hawaii Five-0 and returned to the mainland.
But the actor has also discovered that island living has its perks. For one thing, he's finally taken up surfing—a sport he tried when he was 18 but quit after getting caught in a steep, fast break. But this year, he conquered that fear and now frequents the beaches of Diamond Head, Tongs, and Velzyland on the North Shore. "Surfing is my great passion in Hawaii," he says. "I have a bunch of boards—all of which I ride badly." His co-star, Scott Caan, who plays Danny "Danno" Williams on the series, reports otherwise. A longtime surfer, he says that O'Loughlin is progressing "on a very advanced level." Of course, there's nothing like sports to bring out competition among cast mates. "Scotty is a machine," says O'Loughlin. "I'll never be as good as him. And I'll never match his jiu-jitsu, either. But if we're in a ring together—fists and stand-up fighting—I'd lick him standing up."
Caan laughs when he hears this. "We have a great respect for each other," he says. "We are completely comfortable working together and going for each other's throats without worrying that we've crossed a line. Alex is a natural leader. He takes control and makes things happen on-set—and in his personal life, too. He's The General, and I think that comes across in this role." Of course, even for The General, chasing bad guys every week—pretend or not—can take its toll on the human body. "I'm damaged a bit," O'Loughlin admits. His litany of first-season injuries includes tendinitis in his bicep, and a torn shoulder. So he's spending his time off getting his core energy up, stabilizing his back, and healing his shoulder. "I'm going to come in like a bull at the top of Season 2," he promises.
When it comes to body transformation (and maintenance), O'Loughlin turns to L.A.-based trainer Jeff Blair, whom he met two years ago while playing Jennifer Lopez's baby daddy in the romantic comedy, The Back-up Plan, which required him to look lean and ripped, fast. "He put me on this nutrition program—and he changed my life." These days, O'Loughlin makes sure to drink about two gallons of water a day (which explains the jug he carries). Breakfast consists of a half-cup of oatmeal, a banana, a few almonds, and a splash of 2% reduced-fat milk. Lunch and dinner include a balanced combo of protein, veggies, and carbs—and he has a simple paradigm for portion control. "If you look at your open hand, the size of your palm is the amount of protein you should take—about two-thirds of a chicken breast. Your splayed four fingers equal the amount of space you should have for vegetables. And the triangular area between your index finger and thumb is for carbohydrates—brown rice or whole-meal pasta. The key is to have a very low-sodium diet and understand that 80% of [the process] happens in the kitchen, not in the gym." When it comes to workouts, though, the actor is hardly a slouch. "I like to circuit train," he says. "If you do one exercise after another without breaking, you bump your metabolic rate up to such a place that you create what's called a 'furnace effect'—your metabolism is firing at such a high rate that you can go to sleep and you'll burn calories through the night. That's my ideal place to be."

Laurel Youngquist
Student runs to combat human trafficking
Many people run on a daily basis to maintain a healthy lifestyle. But what if running could not only improve your physical well-being but also improve the lives of hundreds of others?
When first-year student Laurel Youngquist turned 19 this January, it dawned on her that 2014 was her last year as a teenager. Youngquist says she wanted to do something significant before crossing over into her twenties, and asked God for the opportunity.
"I asked God to break my heart," Youngquist says of the decision, "and in many ways, God has broken my heart very specifically for people who are hurting due to human trafficking."
Youngquist plans to run a total of 500 miles this year to increase awareness and financial support to combat human trafficking. With fundraising tools provided by Minnesota-based nonprofit Venture Expeditions, Youngquist is hoping to raise $1,900 (in honor of turning 19) for Run Free, an organization that helps victims of trafficking in Southeast Asia.
Pushing through
Balancing life as a first-year pre-med student, Youngquist admits that trying to find a consistent time to run each day hasn't been easy—but she is often able to begin her day with a run around Calvin's campus at 6 a.m. before hurrying off to class and activities.
Even this year's extreme winter weather couldn't stop Youngquist: "I think that's the part of the physical sacrifice thing, especially with the weather," she shares.
Already feeling changes
Since starting to run for the cause in January, Youngquist says, she has noticed a change in herself. "I can already tell that it's changing the way that I talk, which is weird because you wouldn't think running would change the way someone talks," she admits. "But I realize that on the days that I run, I feel better about the rest of my day because that's time I have away from people and time I have with God."
Youngquist says that the campaign has opened up the door to conversations with friends and family about the way God is working in her life. And, when she does have the chance to run with friends, Youngquist says she enjoys talking to them about their spiritual lives and feels she is connecting with God by connecting with others.
An everyday thing
Youngquist says she hopes to inspire others to find a causes they are passionate about. "There are little things that we can do to change other people's lives that we can focus on doing each day," she says. "And it's an everyday thing, not just looking at a whole year."
Youngquist will be participating in Calvin's annual 5k Spring Classic on April 26, 2014, to continue to add miles to her journey. To support her efforts, visit her fundraising site.

Skip to comments.Cheap Trick: 'I'm a California Man'
Posted on 12/19/2012 2:32:27 PM PST by Reaganite Republican
I met Cheap Trick while on a business trip back in the seventies.
Sure, I remember The Move. "She could really do the Brontosaurus!" That being said, it has been my pleasure to see Cheap Trick a few times and can say that they unequivocally ROCK!
Cheap Trick does a pretty good version of "Don't Be Cruel"
I didn't know Cheap Trick released a Christmas song until I heard it this morning.
What was the song?
It is titled "Come On Christmas."
Do tell...
Don't feel like the Lone Ranger, I only heard about The Move in the last 4-5 years, and have been an ELO fan since the 70s.
Not bad at all, and news to me too... thx!
Where they cool?
it was at a Japanese restaurant in Rockford, Il.
I really couldn't tell, although I did receive one of their guitar pics.
That's his old trademark, throwing out the picks... awesome!
I saw a TON of bands in their prime but somehow missed Cheap Trick
Needs more cowbell.

VINTON–The employees at the Frank Chervan, Inc. furniture plant in southeast Roanoke were honored on October 5, National Manufacturing Day, by Kellex Corporation.
Chris Rice, Charles Rice, and Doug Fawcett, the founding owners of Kellex, treated the entire Chervan staff to lunch.
They called the event "Chervan Appreciation Day" in honor of Chervan's production team, spotlighting their longtime manufacturing and marketing partnership with what they describe as "the most advanced maker of wood seating in America." Kellex is a leading upholstered furniture supplier to the hospitality and healthcare industries.
This was the first annual National Manufacturing Day across the United States, co-sponsored by the National Association of Manufacturers and the Manufacturing Institute.
The purpose of the inaugural event was to "highlight the importance of manufacturing in the US economy and showcase the highly skilled jobs available in manufacturing fields by opening up shop floors around the country."
In the economic downturn of the past several years, one of the hardest hit industries has been furniture manufacturing. During any recession, people tend to put off making major purchases and furniture usually falls into that category. With the current housing crisis, fewer houses are being sold and furnished.
Additionally, the globalization of the American furniture business has had a severe impact on the industry. In the past decade, many companies have moved their manufacturing facilities abroad.
However, now the tide is beginning to turn and these off-shore manufacturers are struggling with numerous issues increasing their cost of production abroad. Foreign monetary policies, transportation costs, risky suppliers, substandard quality, slow deliveries, and product safety issues have arisen at the same time that the American public has become more mindful of "buying American" to help revive our own economy.
Meanwhile, Chervan and Kellex are celebrating the results of "never leaving America." They toughed it out here and provided hundreds of manufacturing jobs for families in Virginia, Ohio, Georgia, Michigan and North Carolina. The two companies made the decision to "Make it Here/Make it Happen."
"We stayed the course," said Greg Terrill, president of Chervan. "Manufacturing is physically hard. It's mentally hard. It's not an easy business. Some manufacturers walked away. We stuck it out, and Kellex stuck it out."
"The next chapter is a bright future for all of us," said Terrill.
The Chervan plant is located on Greenbrier Avenue in southeast Roanoke City, near Vinton and the Tinker Creek Greenway Connection. They occupy 350,000 square feet in the former Hooker Furniture facility, which closed in 2006.
Chervan was founded in 1932 by a dedicated designer and craftsman, Frank Chervan. The company has evolved into one of only a few wood seating operations that carry the entire process from green lumber to finished chairs, all in one plant.
Kellex became Chervan's customer when the company started having problems with their wood chair supply. Their former supplier imported frames and was experiencing supply and quality problems. That's when Kellex turned to Chervan for an all-domestic solution.
Both companies originated in Ohio and moved manufacturing South to take advantage of what they identify as the best furniture craftsmen and the most plentiful sustainable Appalachian hardwood. Kellex Corporation is still based in Ohio with manufacturing in North Carolina.
Today, under the leadership of Terrill, who is Chervan's grandson, the company continues to use advanced technology to produce high quality, durable, customized furniture enabling them to produce up to 1,000 quality wood chairs per day.
Kellex Corporation continues to be the largest buyer of Chervan's seating for its high-end upholstered and wood furniture collections. Together they have furnished scores of well-known hotels such as Hiltons, Marriotts, and Wyndhams, upscale time share properties, major banks and financial institutions, resorts, and hundreds of senior living centers across America.
Terrill credits the success of the company to the dedication of his employees. At the luncheon ceremony, he not only praised his gathered workers but predicted a strong comeback for U.S. manufacturing in the coming years.
He thanked the company's workforce of over 165 employees who have 2,280 collective years of experience. He also thanked locally owned Valley Bank for their support of the business.
Terrill used the occasion to honor several retiring workers, like Jimmy St. Clair who has been on the job for 56 years, beginning when the minimum wage was $1.00 per hour.
Terrill grew up in Bedford when the furniture plant was still located there. He also literally grew up in the plant, and eventually learned to do every task involved in the manufacture of their products.
He graduated from Roanoke College, where he met his wife, Nicole, and then received his MBA from Seton Hall. In 1999 they returned to the Roanoke Valley to start a family and for Terrill to take over the Bedford-based family business.
One of his first acts was to steer the furniture frame manufacturer away from residential and into high-end office and health care furniture. In 2009, the struggling economy forced him to make the decision to close the plant in Bedford and move all of the operations under one roof in Roanoke.
"This was one of the toughest decisions we have had to make," said Terrill. "Rising costs of employment and particularly extreme health care costs forced us to refocus and rescale the business."
Fortunately, most economists now agree that the worst part of the recession is over, although the economy remains sluggish.
"The furniture industry is making a recovery but it is not as noticeable yet because we still have got to get the rank-and-file American worker back to work," said one economist. "They buy the furniture."
Not only are Terrill and Chervan leaders in furniture manufacturing, they are also good neighbors in the local community.
"Frank Chervan, Inc., donated, without cost, a portion of the land needed for the Tinker Creek
Greenway connection," said Phil Schirmer, City Engineer for the City of Roanoke. "Greg also offered part of their property to support a future greenway trail connection into the neighborhood surrounding the plant location."
"Greg walked in with a can-do attitude," said Fawcett at the luncheon. "His employees describe him as a leader, humble, a motivator, a man of integrity, generous, a friend, and ultimately as a true "American entrepreneur".

Yesterday I learned the British word plonk and I am really excited about it. I initially heard the word in an interview with Garett Oliver, the brewmaster at Brooklyn Brewery, on The Eater Upsell.
Sidenote: For anyone looking for a fun new podcast, The Eater Upsell comes out every other week and features an interview with someone broadly connected to the food and beverage industry (think people like Dan Barber and Emeril Lagasse). Helen Rosner is an excellent host, and she and her co-host, Greg Morabito, often have really interesting insights on the New York restaurant scene. Helen Rosner was also recently quoted in that New Yorker piece about the San Pellegrino-sponsored "Best Restaurants" lists that you have been meaning to read. I think she's brilliant and her quotes make the whole piece:
"Fine, you're using local ingredients, but you're still French-trained, doing service à la russe, referring to things as 'a riff on panna cotta.' It erases the culinary traditions that are inherent to other places. The food of China and of South Africa has value, and it doesn't need to be shoved into the extremely restrictive corsetry of a European-style tasting menu."
I overheard coworkers casually mention that "the best restaurant in the world is in Copenhagen" and I barged out of my office and just started ranting at no one, "Oh, you mean Noma? That list is bullshit, it's basically statistically impossible that all of the judges who voted for Noma actually ate there. But also it looks amazing. Did you see Rene Redzepi on the David Chang season of Mind Of A Chef? I only watched a few episodes when The Boyfriend was away on business, but I really like it and I can't wait to make it to the Gabrielle Hamilton season, I wonder what she thinks about Rene Redzepi and/or the San Pellegrino best restaurants list? I am just bugged by the extent to which that list is identified with San Pellegrino, even though I love San Pellegrino and I would probably murder the first-born child of someone I work next to to get to eat at all of those restaurants." (I was joking, because my coworker/office neighbor just had his first child, but I think my manic word vomit completely overwhelmed him and he missed the joke. Also, I'm not totally sure that he isn't currently considering getting a restraining order against me.)
Anywhooo, Garrett Oliver was talking on the Eater Upsell about the way that we think about wine in American culture — that we always assume it's fancy and the media devotes a disproportionate amount of time and energy to the small percentage of really fantastic wines actually consumed in the US. And then, all of the sudden, he used just one word to describe nothing-fancy-just-fine-for-every-day wine — "the kind of wine that comes in a bag, in a box, or in a glass jug with a finger loop" — plock. Apparently, it used to be derogatory, and refer to shitty wine (and plockers were the kinds of people who make a habit of getting sloppy drunk on cheap wine), but now it's often used to refer to table wine — the kind of thing that is totally drinkable, but not something that is so fancy it warrants stopping the whole world to sit and enjoy a glass.
I love that I finally have a word for that distinction. Sometimes, I want to savor a really complex glass of red wine before dinner. I want to sniff it and sip it and taste it with food and talk about it. But sometimes, I just want a glass of wine. Something that's good, and enjoyable, that I can drink while I'm gossiping and don't want to get distracted with something like remarkable wine.
Speaking of gossip, a bunch of my law school friends were in town a few weeks ago. The Boyfriend and I invited them all over for brunch, and we needed the brunch-food equivalent of plock. Something delicious but simple, that everyone could eat and enjoy while we caught up on each others' lives and gossiped about our old classmates. I whipped up a loaf of this pecan-topped pumpkin bread, and it was perfect. We snacked. We helped ourselves to seconds. We mildly choked upon hearing that so-and-so is getting married, and what's-her-name is moving. The pumpkin bread had lovely pumpkin flavor, a nice crumb and crunchy nut topping, but it couldn't outshine our morning of friendship — a very plonky bread, indeed.

The last time Vanderbilt played Kentucky the Commodores chucked up a season-high 70 shots.
Forty-seven missed the mark. At least eight never touched the rim.
"I know there were multiple times where somebody would take it in there and their shot would just get thrown by one or two players," center Josh Henderson said.
Emphasis on two.
Kentucky star Nerlens Noel made his presence felt in the Wildcats' 60-58 victory on Jan. 10. Along with blocking three shots, and altering many more, the freshman scored 13 points, grabbed seven rebounds and with 18 seconds left made a huge floater before, according to the referees, or after, according to replay, the shot clock sounded.
He wasn't the only giant camped out in the paint that night.
Willie Cauley-Stein towered over the Commodores and actually led the Wildcats with four blocks and eight rebounds. His presence helped bother 6-foot-11 Henderson, who went scoreless in just 13 minutes.
The loss of 6-foot-10 Noel to a season-ending ACL injury last week can't be underplayed as Vanderbilt (10-14, 4-8 Southeastern Conference) heads to Rupp Arena on Wednesday (7 p.m., SEC Network). The future NBA lottery pick — this year or next — led the country with 106 blocked shots and paced his teammates in rebounds and steals.
But at 7-foot, Cauley-Stein can't be overlooked either.
"He is a formidable guy around the basket as well. Noel wasn't the only good big guy that they have," coach Kevin Stallings said. "Cauley-Stein is very good. [Kyle] Wiltjer has obviously started playing really good ball for them. They're a complete team, a very good team. Again, they're missing a guy who is a very good player but they still have some very good players anyway."
Some very good players who likely are in a very bad mood.
The Wildcats (17-8, 8-4) were annihilated Saturday in an 88-58 road loss to Tennessee. The margin of victory was the largest against a John Calipari coached team since his first season at Massachusetts in 1988-89.
A lot of the problems began down low. With Noel out, the Volunteers decided to take their chances against Cauley-Stein and Wiltjer.
The cracks in the paint became obvious early as UT raced out to a 50-26 lead at halftime. Tennessee scored 40 points in the paint — the third-most allowed by Kentucky this season — and dominated the rebounding battle 39-21. The Vols also shot 58 percent from the field, marking just the second time Kentucky has allowed an opponent to make at least half its shots. And perhaps the most notable statistic — the Wildcats tied a season-low with just three blocks.
Stallings chose not to read too much into Kentucky's first game without Noel.
"They ran into a buzz saw on Saturday," he said. "I'm not sure that anybody in college basketball would have beaten Tennessee the way Tennessee played that day."
Still, watching the defending national champ unravel without its most intimidating shot blocker wasn't lost on the Commodores.
"When you watched them they looked all out of sorts," Henderson said. "They lose a big presence inside and just hopefully we take advantage of that."
