The Vatican bank's top two officials are under investigation for suspected money laundering and police have frozen 23 million euros ($30.21 million) of its funds, Italian judicial sources said on Tuesday.
They said President Ettore Gotti Tedeschi and director-general Paolo Cipriani were being investigated by Rome magistrates Nello Rossi and Stefano Fava in a case involving alleged violations of European Union money-laundering rules.
The Vatican confirmed the Rome magistrates' action in a statement that expressed "perplexity and amazement" at the move and "utmost faith" in the two men who head the bank, officially known as Institute for Religious Works (IOR). It said the bank had committed no wrongdoing because it was transferring its own money between its own accounts.
The IOR primarily manages funds for the Vatican and religious institutions around the world, such as charity organisations and religious orders of priests and nuns.
Its cash point machines in the Vatican are perhaps the only ATMs in the world that allow clients to choose Latin as the language to perform operations.

In your first laboratory meeting you will be checking into the lab. This means that you will be issued a locker that contains all glassware/equipment necessary for performing the laboratory experiments for the semester. You will be issued the following items:
Requisition Card: You will be issued a student requisition card (yellow, blue, white or pink). Please fill this card out completely. Include name, student number, course title, section, locker number and locker combination. This card MUST be returned to the stock room and will be used for recording any breakage or loss incurred in the lab. The BACK of this card will be used for this purpose, so DON'T WRITE ANYTHING ON THE BACK.
Combination Tag: This tag contains the locker number and the lock combination. The three-number combination sequence is to be dialed RIGHT/LEFT/RIGHT. See your instructor or T. A. if you have trouble opening the lock.
Equipment List: This is a list of the locker contents. You should read the list and compare it against the actual contents of your locker. If you do not find an item or it is damaged or broken, indicate this on the BACK of this sheet. The stock room will replace these items on receipt of the sheet when you have completed the check-in procedure.
You are required to check out on the scheduled check-out day at the last lab meeting. (In the event that you drop the course or have to terminate for any other reason; contact your instructor and T.A. to check-out at that time.) You will be asked to check the locker contents for completeness, intactness, and cleanliness of the equipment. Go to the stock-room to get replacements for damaged or broken equipment. You must wash the glassware – when completed contact your T.A. or instructor, who will check the locker equipment.
The charges will be recorded on the back of the Student Requisition Card. You will be billed for any replaced equipment by the Bursar's Office at the end of the semester.
Anyone who has not checked-out and has a locker containing dirty equipment will be charged a breakage fee by the stock room:

Craig MacTavish is busy these days trying to add useful pieces to the puzzle. Edmonton's major league roster has holes and the minor league system does too. It's also clear the GM has made his decision on many of the players inherited on the roster. And he's culling the herd.
- Cam Abney: Heh.
- Eric Belanger: He signed his retirement contract with Edmonton.
- Phil Cornet: Classic tweener.
- Yann Danis: Minor league veteran.
- Teemu Hartikainen: The original scouting report suggested his third gear didn't exist, and we are here.
- Darcy Hordichuk: Tough job.
- Tanner House: Doesn't have NHL ability.
- Nikolai Khabibulin: He got another contract. Incredible.
- Ryan Martindale: Original scouting report talked about losing battles and lacking speed.
- Alex Plante: Best of luck. Concussions are tough..
- Linus Omark: The Oilers have small forwards by the 8-piece setting, so losing Omark is a footnote. Still, he has skill.
- Lennart Petrell: Yeah.
- Olivier Roy: A goalie prospect of some quality.
- Toni Rajala: Bizarre exit, he has talent.
- Jarred Smithson: Tambo's folly.
- Garrett Stafford: Don't remember.
- Colten Teubert: Remember.
- Chris VandeVelde: Caught on with Philly in fringe role.
- Ryan Whitney: Has played in 6 NHL games this season.
There are players leaving that I believe have value:
- Devan Dubnyk: The big man had a horrible year, and will have to recover his career (possibly in the AHL). I think he has value, and the Oilers sold low on him. I did think they paid him too much.
- Mark Fistric: Grabbed an NHL job, and then got an extension.
- Shawn Horcoff: Quality player over many years, he's still missed here.
- Magnus Paajarvi: The speedy winger is struggling in St. Louis, and the Oilers certainly received value, but he's a player worth following.
- Theo Peckham: Opportunity missed, by player and team.
That's 24. Let me ask you: how many of those players should have been kept? Understanding that Horcoff's cap hit and history were factors (MacT did him a favor, I think) I'll say Horcoff, Paajarvi and Dubnyk but there are answers for each name (cap room, Perron and holy hell man, did you see the games?). The other day David Staples over at CofH ran a survey that asked if MacT was doing a better job than Tambellini. I'm astounded anyone thought the question needed asking. Look at the names sent away! Look at how few are in the NHL! It's criminal.
This is Rick Middleton. He was drafted in 1973 (14th overall) by the New York Rangers, but he was probably the second or third best player in the draft that season. The Rangers procurement department at that time was run by Dennis Ball and he was a very good hockey man. The Rangers of my youth were very good, but not good enough to beat Boston or the Habs each spring. They punted Emile Francis in 1976 and John Ferguson flushed all the skill and searched for veterans. The trade of Rick Middleton to Boston for a finished Ken Hodge was kind of like trading Nail Yakupov for Chris Kunitz today.
This is Barry Beck. He was a mountain on skates, and Ferguson's replacement in NYC (Fred Shero) wanted him for his Big Apple Reset. The Rangers sent away 5 players for Beck, who lost much of his career to injury. Looking back, NYR didn't get value, but that trade made a helluva lot more sense than the Middleton deal. The Rangers traded away Stanley's every decade of my life, and then they probably traded away two in acquiring the 1994 championship. What a way to run a railroad.
There are usually a ton of ex-Oilers on the Rangers and vice-versa, but Corey Potter is the only man to have played in both uniforms. This is the 6,000 NHL game for the blueshirts, they are the 5th team to manage that number. NYR are 15-5-1 in their last 21 games, including a 10-3-0 mark in their last 13.
- Nuge-Hall-Yakupov
- Gagner-Perron-Eberle
- Gordon-Hendricks-Hemsky
- Smyth-Gazdic-Joensuu
- Marincin-Petry
- Ference-J Schultz
- Fraser-N Scultz
- Scrivens
- Martin Marincin 49.7
- Jeff Petry 47.5
- Anton Belov 46.3
- Taylor Fedun 45.7
- Phil Larsen 44.5
- Andrew Ference 43.2
- Ladislav Smid 43.1
- Justin Schultz 43.1
- Nick Schultz 41.3
- Corey Potter 40.1
- Mark Fraser 31.8
- Brad Hunt 30.8
The future is at the top, the veterans in the middle and the new hire (Fraser) looks about AHL replacement level. I would like to see the club retain Marincin, Petry, Belov, Fedun, Ference, Justin Schultz and Potter for the second half, possibly calling up Klefbom in case of injury.
We're at a point now where there's no real benefit to trading before the Olympic deadline. If the Kings dealt for Gagner today, it isn't like he's going to make a huge difference (no games to play after tonight). Kings can save their cap $$ and make their decision after the break. Los Angeles' first game back is Feb 26 (Oilers play the 27th) and March 5th is the deadline.
A busy, fluid day on the show. 10 this morning, TSN 1260. Scheduled to appear:
- Dennis King, Oilogosphere icon. Yakupov makes the top line, Arco to the minors, the PP to the ditch.
- Evan Sporer, Blueshirt Banter. We'll talk about the Rangers and old man Sather.
- Michael Parkatti, Boys on the Bus. Eakins promising improvement during the break. What would that look like?
10-1260 via text @Lowetide_ on twitter. Guests added as we go. See you on the radio!

A wish experience connects. It sparks an interaction between a wish kid and a community that empowers lives. It reaffirms a belief in heroes and a knowledge that others care. As human beings, we can't thrive in isolation. Our strength comes from the world around us. Read more ...
For this week's Wish Wednesday, here are five wish experiences that inspired a connection for a hopeful tomorrow.
Luke Visits Sea Turtles
With a wish, a child with a life-threatening medical condition experiences a glimpse of the world reaffirming the wonders of life's possibilities. It gives wish kids a reason to overcome their condition. When Luke hears his wish will come true, his demeanor changes. Before he was a leukemia patient, but now he's just a kid who is going to Hawaii to visit sea turtles. He admires the massive creature as it swims through the water. That interaction with nature and his favorite animal rejuvenates his spirit - and inspires a smile his family missed.
Brad Meets NYC Firefighters
Wish kid find strength in the heroes they admire. After 9/11, Brad joined the rest of our nation in thanking the courage of NYC firefighters. They saw an insurmountable obstacle. They ran into danger anyway because saving a life meant more to them than fear. Living with a life-threatening skeletal disorder that causes brittle bones, Brad understands overcoming obstacles. During his wish experience Brad meets NYC firefighters. He connects to their courage and looks forward to the day he becomes an emergency dispatcher.
Kennedy Meets Ballerinas
A wish allows seriously ill children to explore their imaginations and dream about what they could be with youthful aspiration. Kennedy's life-threatening neurological condition affected her hearing. Before her wish, part of her skull was removed during a procedure required to save her life. But then, Kennedy stood backstage surrounded by real ballerinas. She watched as they prepared to grace the stage and capture the audience in an imaginative story with strength and beauty. Kennedy and her family are not alone – they have hope. Kennedy can hear and she can dance, too.
Dhanush Reunites with Doctor
There's something to be said about thanking the person who helped you during dark times. It's uplifting for both parties – reaffirming faith in the world. Dr. Carmen Weeber-Morse saved Dhanush's life when no one else could figure out why Dhanush was sick. With the accurate diagnosis of neutropenia – a life-threatening immune system disorder – the doctor gave Dhanush a fighting chance. With the right medication, Dhanush overcomes. During his wish experience he reconnects with Dr. Weeber-Morse. He has a role model to look up to – someone who didn't back down because his life was worth it. And she finds a patient that gives her hope.
Connections to other people and the rest of the world give us hope. It helps wish kids keep fighting. The healing power of these wish interactions will always be a source of inspiration for me and it hope they will for you as well.
Wish Nation gives you a behind-the-scenes look at Make-A-Wish®. See how wishes come together and how they change lives forever. Hear directly from those who work or volunteer here, or those who have been transformed by a wish. And learn why we are so committed to someday granting the wish of every eligible child, every year.We want to hear from you.We moderate our communities by only one rule: Be nice. We welcome different views - just keep it courteous and considerate. Thanks for connecting.

Contrary to what some consumers, amateur photographers and even die-hard techies might assume, instant photography has been around a lot longer than the digital camera and the iPhone. In fact, it's been around for more than six decades, ever since the scientist, visionary and Polaroid co-founder Edwin H. Land introduced his first "Land Camera" way back in 1947.
Here, on Edwin Land's birthday (he was born May 7, 1909, in Bridgeport Conn.), and a full 40 years after the SX-70 was introduced, LIFE.com pays tribute to Land's vision and his determination to, as he once put it, "provide an opportunity for creativity that other photography doesn't allow."
Also in the gallery are pictures made with the SX-70 by LIFE photographer Co Rentmeester, who experimented with the camera while shooting the cover story on Land for the October 27, 1972, issue of the magazine.

With its powerful processor, great camera, decent screen and gorgeous, waterproof design, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is the best small Android phone around.
With comparably good sound for its size and the addition of speakerphone features, the Sony SRS-X3 mini Bluetooth speaker measures up well against the pricier Bose SoundLink Mini.
The Xperia Z1S is the most impressive smartphone Sony has ever sold on any carrier, but an inferior screen makes Samsung's Galaxy handsets better deals.
Quibbles aside, the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x headphones are a modestly improved version of the already spectacular model they're based on, and among the best-sounding pairs you'll find for less than $200.
While it doesn't play as loud when it's on battery power, the Sony SRS-X5 holds its own against the top Bluetooth speakers in its size and price class.
The Philips BT3500 may not excel in any one area, but its slim design is appealing and it delivers decent performance for an affordable price.

Minister for Foreign Affairs welcomes President Obama's announcement of the Review of US Policy in Iraq
The Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr. Micheál Martin, T.D., welcomed the announcement today by President Obama of his Administration's review of US Policy in Iraq, including the substantial reduction in troop numbers by 31 August 2010.
The Minister said: "This early elaboration of US policy, coming on foot of the commitments made in the US-Iraq Security Agreement, provides a welcome indication of the new Administration's commitment to move forward with a responsible withdrawal of troops in Iraq. This is coupled with the reassurance that the necessary supports, security and otherwise, will continue to be provided to the people of Iraq over the transitional period ahead, including during the forthcoming elections."
The Minister also welcomed the US Administration's continuing work with the Iraqi Government, as it addresses the challenges of rebuilding the political and administrative structures within Iraq and its relations within the region, with a view to securing long term peace and stability.
"We have long looked forward to the day when the Iraqi authorities would be able to provide for the security of their people without outside assistance. President Obama's welcome announcement today shows that we are coming much closer to that point", the Minister said.

The 'right' university degree, is that exist?
Hello, this is my very first post in this site and I should let you know that english is not my first language.
I'm from Indonesia and planning to study in usa this fall.
I have difficulties in finding what degree should I take. Bussines or Science? Firstly, I wanted to study biology-related major(life sciences, not medical). However, since I have been hearing all the time that this field has a high number of unemployment both in my home country and usa(correct me if I'm wrong). In addition, it's not easy to study these science-related major since you have to study math, phys, bio, and chem.
Secondly, my parents run a shop here. So If I have a major in bussines-related major, hopefully I'll be able to apply the knowledge to my bussines. If I have graduated with science degree such as biotechnology or agriculture, What I feared the most is that I wont be able to get a job in usa and will be forced to go back to my home country where these science degrees are worth almost nothing. Also I have seen in yahoo edu and some other resources ranked agriculture in the top of most useless degree. Thats pretty strange thing since we have more people to feed and scacer land.
I would be very grateful if you guys give me references. Thank you.

Jun 22 2013: If you're thinking of employment you may need to consider the cost of getting a degree. In the USA there are many people with degrees that are either out of work or underemployed. Yet, many of them spent a ton of money earning those degrees. It's not uncommon for a four-year degree to cost $80,000. Would you be better off using that money as capital to start your own business? Just giving you something to think about.
Jun 22 2013: That would be a good idea. However, I'm thinking to work first and then apply the experiences and knowledge that I have learnt from working to my business. So I can run my business more efficiently. In order to work at someone's company I need a degree.
I like your idea though, since college education has an very unreasonable price and not everyone can afford it.
Jun 22 2013: My experience is that you won't learn what you need to learn at college. I'm not saying it's always a bad thing, but don't expect that once you earn a degree doors will open up. There are many people with degrees (some Master's and Ph.D.'s) who are out of work or working jobs with poor pay. And, you don't need a degree at every company.
What many schools will do is sign you up and give you loans to pay for your schooling. At the end of your degree program that loan will be a giant hindrance to seeking out your dreams. So, I would recommend seeing if you can find a way to work as you're gaining your schooling and pay as you go. It will take longer, but you won't have a big financial burden when you graduate.
Before you start, I would recommend finding a few people in the fields you are thinking of pursuing. Talk to those people. Find out what the job is really like. Find out how you get into the field. Find out all that information first before you pay a penny towards education. Many people find after they graduate that the job they prepared for is far different than they imagined.
You will also find that success after school often means unlearning many of the things you were taught in college. I'm an excellent writer. I've written several books. In order for me to become a vibrant writer, I had to learn that many of the things I was taught in school were wrong. College is detached from the real world. So much of what you do and learn only applies to academia. It has little application outside those walls.
Jun 22 2013: Your choice is a wise one, I think. Higher education and experience working with those who can mentor you are invaluable if you have those opportunities. In my experience, many people who have gone to college do not fully realize what they gained from it, noticing only that it didn't give them everything they might have expected. Those who did not go cannot know with great authority what they might have gained from it.
I am glad you will have the opportunity to include higher education in your learning plans.
To which college are you headed, if I may ask?
Jun 23 2013: My application is still processed by Langara college, it's the biggest government funded college in Canada. I also sent my application to Diablo Valley college in California, since some people say getting student visa in Canada is taking much time. However, both choices are good. I should definetly be studying in one of these colleges in the future. I applied for university transfer program so I plan to transfer at university in my two or third year.

"But Animal Righters love pets!"
If you look at any of the top animal righters in the country, you will see that they either have no pets at all, or veganized, blind cats. They know veganizing some animals just doesn't work, and they know veganism can't be achived without, well, getting rid of the other animal consumers, pets. And before you bring up rabbits, well, they were bred, and breeding is seen as something unethical to their cause.
"The animal rights movement in America, led by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), has evolved into a wealthy and successful attack group determined to end the consumption of meat, eliminate hunting, outlaw rodeos and circuses, and even ban animal ownership (including pets) altogether."
Because even our domestic animals are linked to the use and consumption of animal products that the AR are against. Ferrets and cats need meat, and meat can't be abolished if you can own these animals. Veganizing them isn't an option for ferrets and cats and dogs. Most of our herbivore animals some would assume would be safe are targeted too, as they are bred (and according to some rabbit breeders I knew, you feed the mothers some bacon so they won't eat their babies). You can't abolish animal use 100% if you can breed and keep animals, again, it "is against their rights".
Animal Welfare is the way to go. It grants the animal a life from suffering, a humane death and a great use to us and our pets :) A world without being able to interact with and use animals is a dull world.

Discover new movies with friends using Movienr
How do you discover new movies to watch? For me, it is mostly friends recommendations. Or the decision is based on news and advertisements. Other than that there is no real way to know which movie to watch next? Is it? A decision to watch movie shouldn't be a painful experience. Many times it happens(…)

Qutb, Qutub, Kutb, or Kutub (Arabic: قطب), literally means 'axis', 'pivot' or 'pole'.[1] Qutb can refer to celestial movements and used as an astronomical term or a spiritual symbol.[2] In Sufism, a Qutb or Kutb is the perfect human being, al-insān al-kāmil, who leads the saintly hierarchy. The Qutb is the Sufi spiritual leader that has a Divine connection with God and passes knowledge on which makes him central to (or the axis of) Sufism, but he is unknown to the world.[3] There is only one Qutb per era and he is an infallible and trusted spiritual leader. He is only revealed to a select group of mystics because there is a "human need for direct knowledge of God".[4]
According to the Institute of Ismaili Studies (Ismailism is a branch of Shīʻa Islam), "In mystical literature, such as the writings of al–Tirmidhi, Abd al–Razzaq and Ibn al–'Arabi (d. 1240), [Qutb or Kutb] refers to the most perfect human being (al–insan al–kamil) who is thought to be the universal leader of all saints, to mediate between the divine and the human and whose presence is deemed necessary for the existence of the world."[5]
Scriptural Evidence of Qutb[edit]
In the teachings of al-Halkīm Tirmidhī, there is evidence to suggest that the qutb is the head of the saintly hierarchy which provides scriptural evidence to support the belief in the qutb. The hadīth attributed to Ibn Mas'ūd has been used as proof that a qutb exists. This hadīth was called into question for its reliability of the sanad and was discarded by MuhammadRashīd Ridā.[6]
Temporal Qutb and Cosmic Qutb[edit]
Temporal Qutb[edit]
There are two different conceptions of the Qutb in Sufism: Temporal Qutb and Cosmic Qutb. The temporal and cosmic qutb are connected which guarantees that God is present in the world at all times. The temporal qutb is known as "the helper" or al-ghawth and is located in a person on Earth. The cosmic qutb is manifested in the temporal qutb as a virtue which can be traced back to al-Hallādj. The temporal qutb is the spiritual leader for the earth-bound saints. It is said that all beings - secret, animate, and inanimate - must give the qutb their pledge which gives him great authority. The only beings exempt from this are al-afrād, which belong to the angels; the djinn, who are under the jurisdiction of Khadir; and those who belong to the tenth stratum of ridjālal-ghayb.[6]
Due to the nature of the qutb, the location where he resides, whether temporal or cosmic, is questionable. It is thought by most that the qutb is corporeally or spiritually present in Mecca at the Ka'ba, which is referred to as his maqām.[7]
Cosmic Qutb[edit]
The Cosmic Qutb is the Axis of the Universe in a higher dimension from which originates the power (ultimately from Allah) of the temporal Qutb.[8] [9][10]
The Cosmic Hierarchy of the Qutb[edit]
The cosmic hierarchy is the way that the spiritual power is ensured to exist through the cosmos. Two descriptions of the hierarchy come from notable Sufis. The first is Ali Hujwiri's divine court. There are three hundred akhyār ("excellent ones"), forty abdāl ("substitutes"), seven abrār ("piously devoted ones"), four awtād ("pillars") three nuqabā ("leaders") and one qutb. [11]
The second version is Ibn Arabī's which has a different, more exclusive structure. There are eight nujabā ("nobles"), twelve nuqabā, seven abdāl, four awtād, two a'immah ("guides"), and the qutb.[12]

Quality Drug Counseling
Small steps can be taken towards drug counseling and addressing the root causes of a person's addiction. The drug addiction treatment begins with the detox process, where medicines are provided to the clients to end their physical proximity to the drugs. This allows the patient and the doctor to understand the root cause of the individual's addiction. When a nonviolent drug addict goes to prison, the addiction he has isn't being fixed—it's being ignored. Click on the resources link to view publications and resources about drug addiction. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, mood disorder, or drug addiction, you need professionals who are committed to treating you as a whole person rather than just an illness.
When the patient is ready to leave the treatment facility, drug counseling sessions may continue as part of extended treatment. A well-guided recovery complemented by effective care leads to foolproof drug rehabilitation of the patient in addition to treatment in drug rehab centers. Recent studies have revealed that more advanced treatments for alcoholism and drug abuse include identifying chemical imbalances and studying physical and emotional traumas and their triggers and effects on an individual. If the addiction is treated as a disease as it should be, then there should be different treatment options to find a way to help the individual become drug free. Such outpatient treatment programs can provide the needed care with little down time. Sometimes, people plan their entry into rehab or drug treatment for weeks or months, and they have the time to research all available options and find one that really suits their needs.
This type of assistance allows people who are receiving treatment to see that they are not alone with their issues, as they sort out their addiction. The aid at a treatment center may come in the form of group therapy or one-on-one consultation with a trained professional. These programs can provide the social and emotional support systems needed to help many people recover, but they do not address the physical and neurological reasons for the abuse, which are crucial to understanding and recovery for many, especially individuals who have developed a physical dependency to their addiction. Private insurance and people with the financial means to pay for their own rehab can be used to save on costs as well. Drug counselors specialize in aiding people with drug addictions, providing counseling and resources people need to live a drug-free lifestyle. The counselors in these centers seek to understand clients as real people rather than just problems to be dealt with. However, a lot of people make the decision to enter treatment relatively spontaneously, and although it's very important to get into treatment as quickly as possible following a decision to get help, it can be very hard to decide where you should go.
A patient will initially move towards rehabilitation with lots of questions about his or her future success in the program. Fitness therapies, including Cardio training, tailor-made physical exercises, yoga classes, acupuncture sessions, and a host of other programs primarily aim at bringing fitness to clients. Programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) are aimed at treating abuse and addiction by providing counseling and peer support. There are various rehab programs that can be tried before sending a person to prison. Find programs that offer a master's degree in social work or counseling, such as East Carolina University. There are many kinds of courses and programs that can be tailored to your particular needs and problems.
These issues can include problems in paying bills, bad relationships with friends and families, embarrassing situations they torture themselves over in their mind, in addition to the drug addiction. The drug rehabilitation program takes care of the physical, emotional, and medical needs of the patients, providing them with the much-needed care and supporting therapies to generate and fortify their resolve to quit drugs. If physical dependency is determined, detoxification from drugs and alcohol should be managed under the care of a licensed medical professional. I propose the courts need to offer the drug user a choice between a rehab program and imprisonment. Visit the United States Department of Labor website and review the labor statistics for drug counselors. This is especially the case when it comes to drug abuse.
Undergoing counseling in a drug rehabilitation setting can be useful for patients in many ways as part of drug treatment. An individual who has developed a physical dependency to alcohol or drugs should seek a rehabilitation center that can provide medical assistance for recovery in addition to the traditional emotional and counseling support. The various programs for drug treatment are drug courts, in patient rehab, outpatient rehab, counseling, medication to help with addiction, way houses, support groups, house arrest, and bracelet monitoring. Find organizations that specialize in drug counseling. Drug rehab centers such as Jupiter Counseling can help you get through tough times and transform your life for the better. Individual counseling is very important in the rehab process, and can help you to better understand why you abuse drugs or alcohol, and to help you plan for a future of sobriety, factoring in your individual needs.

I was wandering around Lodi today (California, not New Jersey) and stopped by the Visitor's Center where they have a little instructional vineyard. Therein were planted rows of Merlot, Syrah, Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Zinfandel. Well, nobody was lookin', so I started a little taste test. The Sauvignon Blanc tasted like I would have expected Sauvignon Blanc to taste, i.e. it had a very distinguishable citrus character and a certain "grapefruitiness." The Cabernet Sauvignon tasted green, underripe, very vegetal and was reminiscent of many a cab I've had. The remaining varieties tasted like, well, grapes with nothing distinguishing them from one another. Perhaps if this were two or three weeks later the grapes would have been riper and perhaps would have developed more of their characteristic traits? I don't know.
Are the different varieties clearly or even somewhat distinguishable by taste from one another before they are fermented? What's been your experience?

Think aloud
"Think aloud protocol is a technique applied in user testing where users are asked to vocalise their thoughts, feelings and opinions while interacting with a site as they perform a task. While the focus in user testing is primarily on how effectively a user performs the required tasks (and not on how users believe they are performing), verbalizations are useful in understanding mistakes that are made and getting ideas for what the causes might be and how the interface could be improved to avoid those problems." [The explanation is taken from here]
With think aloud protocol you can gather information about how the user uses the application and you will get to the bottom of the reason why your application is interpreted in the wrong way. Maybe it's the terminology, maybe the user is used to finding certain features in certain places and now they are not there. When the user says out loud what and why s/he is doing you can "read her/his mind" and learn more about your user. That helps to locate the problems of your application and make improvements.

Dog accidently travels to Ireland
A 6-year-old English Springer Spaniel named Hendrix was meant to land in Phoenix but was put on the wrong flight.
Last week, Edith Lombardo-Albach brought her daughter's 6-year-old English Springer Spaniel, Hendrix, to Newark International Airport to board a flight to Phoenix, Ariz.
Lombardo-Albach's family is moving from Staten Island, N.Y., to Arizona, and Hendrix was going to be met by his owner, Meredith Grant, at the Phoenix airport. But just as the plane was due to arrive, Lombardo-Albach got a call from United Airlines, saying that the dog had mistakenly been put on a flight to Ireland.
"I almost fainted," Lombardo-Albach said, according to PawNation.
The poor pup had to fly back to New Jersey, and then on to his destination. The airline is "reviewing the circumstances surrounding the situation," and offered the family a full refund for Hendrix's $450 flight, said United spokesperson Megan McCarthy.

Poor doggy :(
Pet owners - please don't put your pets in cargo hold. These poor animals have no idea what's happening, where they are, why their master left them, etc. It's extremely traumatic for the animals and can even cause death in extreme situations. Please consider paying extra to keep the animal on the passenger levels or work something else out. They're depending on you, don't let them down.
This had to have been done intentionally for **** and giggles by a disgruntled employee or some other loser. Anyone with a half a brain could have made certain the dog got on the right plane. I flew back to PA from CA to pickup my border collie and rented a vehicle and drove across country and slept in the back of the vehicle with my dog and camped out in CO and UT before arriving to CA. There was no way I was placing my best friend in the hands of a bunch of morons.
I'll tell you why that dog went to Ireland--because United just outsourced it's entire cargo operation to a vendor with brand new off the street employees with ZERO cargo experience. UA outsourced it's cargo operations system wide (Continental did their own cargo) and told the employees, "Too bad, we're cheap and we have 7 billion dollars in the bank so we can afford a bunch of screw ups. Have fun with no job!!"
So, my advice to all cargo shippers, be extra sure you've got great cargo insurance on ALL your items because IAH, EWR, and CLE are now dead zones of inexperience. The company in CLE tried to ship dangerous good without including the paperwork!!
So, good luck, I'm glad Hendrix came back alive and be sure to keep him in AZ!!

7 signs your dog owns you
You might proudly call yourself a dog owner, pet parent or canine guardian, but let's be real: Your dog owns you. You might be laughing now, but think about it — you've surrendered the best seat on the sofa to him, you plan your entire weekend around his trips to the dog park, and you take him to the groomer more often than you get your own hair cut. And let's not forget who's in every photo on your Facebook and Instagram feeds. Sound familiar? We thought so. But in case you still think you're in charge, here are seven classic signs that your dog is the one calling the shots.

Casilla La Rambla is a beautiful 3 bed villa with private 9m X 5m pool. With stunning mountain views it is set within rural Andalucia.
Our villa has been renovated to a high standard and while catering for modern day living we have retained many of the original features. The building itself is over 200 years old and was originally 1 main room with another room for the animals. The pool area is for the sole use of our guests, although we live near to the villa we will respect our guests privacy. Whilst set in a very quiet area we are not far from a small village ( 2km ) which has a bar/restaraunt and small shop for your essential needs.
Casilla la Rambla is set in rural andalucia, on the fringes of the beautiful Subeticca National Park, where there is numerous walks for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits. Many different species of birds can be frequently spotted, including many hawks, eagles and vultures. There are other national parks in cordoba for you to explore. This particular region of Spain is well known for its sherry type wine ( fino ) especially Montilla which is 10 mins away. It is also well known for its olive oil and olive trees can be seen for miles around. For those of you who enjoy visiting historical sites, the Alhambra in Granada is a must as is the Mezquita Cathederal in Cordoba, both are very important sites in Spains history.
For those of you who love your shopping, there are 3 largish towns all within 20mins. Montilla is a 10 minute drive away, Cabra and Lucena both a 20 minute drive away. These 3 towns have plenty of shops, bars and restaraunts and will cater for all your needs.If you wanted big stores, then the wonderful city of Cordoba is a must and is only 35 minutes away. Sevilla also is a fabulous city and is an hour and 20 minutes drive away. Malaga has plenty of shops and obviously the beaches, this is an hour and 20 minutes away.All in all, casilla la rambla is a quiet but very beautiful base from which to explore from and dont forget, if its a relaxing peaceful holiday your looking for then we also cater for that.
We have 3 seperate terraces,
1 with bbq, 2 others with patio furniture.
The pool also has a large walled terraced area with spectacular views over our olive grove and out towards the mountains. We now have a lovely gazeebo on the pool terrace which provides adequate shade and also has mosquito nets/curtains for evening dining.
This is the general location
The Villa is in a very quiet area. It has a private south facing swimming pool, a south facing garden, a south facing patio area, panoramic views, interesting views, a barbeque. If you are driving there is private parking with the outside areas of the house having external lighting.

ASHLAND COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) - The new snow is holding up plans to look for iron deposits at the site of the proposed Gogebic Taconite mine in Ashland and Iron counties.
DNR mining regulator Ann Coakley tells the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that the company was planning to start field work at the site by drilling core samples. She said the work was delayed after the region got up to 16 inches of snow over the past two days.
Coakley says it might be another two weeks before Gogebic submits a new application to dig for iron deposit samples.
The preliminary field work is among the first steps in seeking state approval to construct and operate the new iron ore mine.
The governor and Legislature agreed earlier this year to speed up the approval process. But observers say it could still be a few years before the Gogebic mine could open.

Q&A: What is E. coli, and how do I avoid it?
My friend's baby was admitted to the hospital for a high fever, and the hospital found E.coli in the baby's urine test. What is the cause of this and how should parents prevent this from happening? Is E. coli viral or germs?
When a baby is evaluated for a fever and the reason isn't obvious on a physical exam, the next step is to look for possible infection in "hidden" sources like blood, urine and sometimes spinal fluid.
When the reason for the fever isn't viral, a urinary tract infection is a fairly common cause, and the most common bacteria found in the urine is E. coli. (It has a longer proper name but this is the nickname used in medicine.) It isn't a virus, but a bacteria that is normally found in stool. When it does find its way into the usually sterile urinary tract, infection can proceed up into the bladder and, in serious cases, into the kidneys themselves. Though attention should always be paid to good hygiene in the diaper area, these infections aren't necessarily the result of sloppy hygiene, so parents shouldn't feel at fault.
In adults and older children, typical symptoms of pain and a sensation of having to urinate frequently make the diagnosis easier. In infants, irritability, fever, vomitting or poor appetite are the more subtle signs of a urinary tract infection.
Once an infection has been found, antibiotics are necesary to eliminate the E.coli, either in or out of the hospital. It is then routine to 'look' at the kidneys and urinary tract with ultrasound and certain X-rays to be sure there isn't scarring and the urinary tract is otherwise normal. If it is normal, there is no reason to think the same infection will recur.

Resolution To Display National Motto On Courthouse Stalls
KINGSTON, Tenn. (AP) - Officials in Roane County have sent a proposal to display the national motto, "In God We Trust," to a committee for further review.
The Roane County Commission decided on Monday not to vote on the measure proposed by Commissioner Randy Ellis. His resolution calls for posting the motto over the main entrance of the county courthouse and in the room where commissioners meet.
It would follow similar actions taken in Anderson and Morgan counties.
WVLT reported instead of voting, officials opted to send the proposal to the property committee, which will look at the issue further and recommend whether to approve it.
If approved, the cost of placing the motto in both locations would be covered by private donations.

AUBURN -- A unique part of American history will be up for raffle at an arts festival in Auburn this month.
A Native American "Smudge Feather" will be raffled at the The Georgia Piedmont Arts Center's cottage during the Spring Phling tent festival, a collection of fine arts and crafts held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 14.
GPAC president Kathleen Gill called the feather "a very special component." Raffle tickets cost $2, or three for $5, and are available before and during the festival, Gill said.
"You need not be present to win," she said.
The Native American artist, known at GPAC as "Red Bear," created and donated the Smudge Feather for the fundraising raffle, Gill said.
"Indigenous tribes of the Americas have used these types of prayer feathers since time began," she said.
At the festival, expect more than 20 regional artisans selling their wares, free adult mini-art lessons, a children's art activity, blacksmithing demonstrations and music by 106West School of Music.
Relocated from Winder, the not-for-profit center occupies a historic house in downtown Auburn. Its mission is to "cultivate, facilitate and promote a community in which all art forms can thrive cooperatively," according to the center's website.
For more information, call the Georgia Piedmont Arts Center at 404-202-3044 or visit www.GeorgiaPiedmontArtsCenter.com

East Hartford — Brendon Kay threw two touchdown passes to Travis Kelce, and caught one from the big tight end on a trick play as Cincinnati beat UConn 34-17 on Saturday.
The win gives the Bearcats (9-3) a share of the Big East championship, along with Louisville, Rutgers and Syracuse, all of which ended the season with 5-2 conference records. Cincinnati's two conference losses came to the Cardinals and Scarlet Knights and the Bearcats were not in the running for the conference's Bowl Championship Series bowl berth.
Kelce caught five balls for 69 yards and the two scores. Kay completed 19 of his 29 passes for 245 yards and the two scores.
Chandler Whitmer threw for 264 yards and a touchdown for UConn (5-7, 2-5), before leaving the game with a head injury in the third quarter. UConn's season comes to an end, but the Huskies would have been bowl eligible if they won the game.
