My mother subscribes to a French magazine, Femme Actuelle, which is always full of recipes. This is where I plucked the idea of making a broccoli soup with some green tea. Why not? Just substitute the chicken broth for the steeped green tea (minus the leaves) and that's it!
INGREDIENTS: 6 servings
- 1 1/2 pounds (or so) of fresh or frozen broccoli
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 1/2 bunch of cilantro
- 2 tsp of green tea
- 4 cups of water
- 2 or up to 4 cloves of garlic
- olive oil, as needed
- salt, white pepper, to taste
- Boil the water and steep the tea in it for a few minutes. Strain and reserve. Heat some oil in a large pot and add the onion and stir-fry for a few minutes until translucent and golden; add the broccoli cut into florets and small chunks and stir-fry for 5 minutes. Add the strained tea water and cook the mixture for 20 to 30 minutes at a slow simmer until the broccoli is cooked.
- Meanwhile, mash the garlic in a mortar with a dash of salt, chop the cilantro. Heat a touch of olive oil in a small skillet and fry the garlic and cilantro for no more than 5 seconds until the fragrance is released and touches your nostrils.
- Using an immersion blender, purée the soup and add the cilantro/garlic fry right before serving to enhance the flavor of the soup. Serve with small croutons or kaak on the side.

Wow, way to read only what you want to from a comment.
'Blizzard has a lot of Druid players who want to see that the class succeeds' does NOT equal 'Most of Blizzard plays Druids and they want them to be better than the other classes.'
People said Blizzard hates Druids, GC probably said that isn't true and that there are people in Blizzard who play Druids and they don't want to see the class ruined. This could also be said for every other class.

Sir Paul McCartney's ex-wife Heather Mills has taken out second place in the women's adaptive slalom event at the New Zealand Winter Games.
Mills, who is ranked 28th in the world in the event, clocked two minutes 9.09 seconds to miss out on the gold to Canada's Melanie Schwartz (1:59.79) on Queenstown's Coronet Peak.
The 45-year-old former model lost her leg below the knee in a road accident in 1993. She married Beatles star McCartney in 2002 and they divorced six years later.
She won four gold medals at last year's US Adaptive Alpine Skiing National Championships in Aspen, Colorado and is hoping to qualify for the 2014 Winter Paralympic Games in Sochi in February.

It's Gotham like you've never seen it before - through a bat-shaped windshield.
The first time we played Batman: Arkham Asylum back in 2009, our hopes of being Gotham's Caped Crusader were slightly dashed by the fact that the game limited us to just Arkham instead of all of Gotham, and never let us play with the full array of Batman's wonderful toys. We are Batman! We are Gotham's prince! We are the night! How dare they tell us we couldn't visit Wayne Tower; that building has our Goddamn name on it! How dare they say we couldn't drive the Batmobile, like there was someone else more deserving of driving a vehicle shaped like a bat?
Almost as if Warner Brothers actually read our (many, many) letters, the new Arkham Knight game has been announced today, and WBIE has confirmed that it will have the incredible graphics and epic story we've come to expect of the Arkham series but, this time, we'll also be able to burn up the streets of a fully realized Gotham in a drivable Batmobile. Don't believe us? See for yourself:

- ReliableMike2Dined on 9/27/2014I have been eating at Bella Via for 6 years and I have always found them to provide very good Italian food for a reasonable price in a great location.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and servicecday12345VIPDined on 9/12/2014We had the gnocchi with porcini mushrooms, and the veal saltimbocca, and both were outstanding. The tiramisu was excellent, firm but creamy (and a large portion). Our server was very friendly and her recommendations were spot on. This was our second time at Bella Via and both times we have had the same experience of great food and service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JCB1Dined on 9/12/2014We have been here many of times and never had a bad experienceSpecial Features:
- A Nice Eveningdineat7Dined on 9/6/2014We really enjoyed our recent visit to Bella Via. The waiter was attentive and quite eager to please us. The food was great. Our table all ordered the minestrone soup and all of us enjoyed it. I ordered the chicken marsala which had plenty of mushrooms and tasted great. Others in our party ordered the veal special and the salmon special which they liked immensely. Most of the tables were filled and the room had an energetic vibe to it. Some people chose to eat outside as the weather was still nice. All in all it was quite a pleasant evening and we look forward to returning.Special Features:
- Excellent Neighborhood SpotDaniDined on 9/5/2014My husband and I decided to go here for dinner on a Friday night. The atmosphere was fun, service was excellent, and the food was great too. We will definitely come back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- triangleartVIPDined on 8/30/2014as always the food was outstanding. ate outside and it was greatSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sweet EveningRedheadDined on 8/27/2014The air was warm, a rainbow in the sky, and friends passing by as we ate outdoors. It was quiet, the food was delicious, and the company good. Three of us ate fish - grouper with artichokes, portobello mushrooms, and tomatoes in a white wine sauce or salmon vesuvio (peas in this dish would be a nice addition), the other ate chicken that was prepared like the grouper. The only soup option was minestrone (and has been for years) - time to add something interesting here. Dinner salads were fine, nothing exciting - it's easy to brighten up a regular salad and make it something special. All our dishes did not come at once; the chicken wasn't quite ready. My husband loves the veal but says that the portion is really not enough for him to eat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Birthday Dinner DisappontmentKrfdfVIPDined on 8/23/2014It was my wife's birthday, so she called to request a window table for 8, so that this request could be associated with my OpenTable reservation. Unfortunately and disappointingly, this was not done/honored. We had excellent service from our server and the food was fabulous, but the unapologetic and unaccommodating response from the front desk staff make a return visit for us unlikely....Special Features:
- Mixed PerformanceJimbo6VIPDined on 8/21/2014Ordinarily great food but failed to deliver good veal parmesan.. The veal was overcooked. It's not wise to be inattentive when preparing dinner for the wife. I had my usual Veal Piccata which I think is the best on the North Shore.Special Features:
- Love outdoor diningeagle2000VIPDined on 8/14/2014We had a delicious dinner dining outdoors. The food was, as usual, fantastic and the service the best. I love being able to swap out salmon for tilapia in the Tilapia Mediterranean.Special Features:
- Problems in the kitchenGlencoeDinerVIPDined on 8/8/2014Overall, this was a nice restaurant that needed to get things straightened out in the kitchen. One appetizer was cold and had to be sent back. Then a shrimp pasta dish only had one piece of shrimp. To make matters worse, both my wife and I felt ill later on. The good news from the kitchen is that the pizza was good. Another piece of good news was the service was great and very apologetic for the kitchen issues. I wouldn't go back. Too many other Italian restaurants with great food.Special Features:
- Always a great mealBeangirlVIPDined on 8/1/2014Great food, consistent quality, not too noisy, nice outdoor seating, a great go to place with a guaranteed excellent experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent pre-concert spotjwandgaDined on 7/29/2014Bella Via, in downtown Highland Park, is an excellent spot for an early dinner before attending a concert at nearby Ravinia. We booked a 4:30 reservation, which gave us plenty of time before the 8 p.m. concert. Since it was early, the dining room was quite quiet (when it began to fill up later, the noise level increased somewhat, but was still quite acceptable). Service was attentive, but not annoying, and the food was excellent. I ordered a seafood risotto; my wife had veal piccata: both were well-presented and delicious. One minor negative: even thought it was early and not busy, the entrees were somewhat slow coming out of the kitchen. We have dined here a number of times in recent years, and have never been disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- cudgelVIPDined on 7/26/2014Food is consistently top quality. Out door patio is one of the best.Special Features:
- not as good as I hopedJojoDined on 7/19/2014Unfortunately, I was a little disappointed! I remembered enjoying Bella Via very much in the past but haven't been there in a long time. While our waiter was very kind, he was not very good. He didn't check back with us, water glasses were not filled, and he brought out beer bottles without glasses (at a bar you expect to drink from the bottle but not at a nice restaurant). And, the food took forever to come out of the kitchen. Thankfully we were with good company but we were getting very hungry! My husbands fish was heavily covered with sauce - and wasn't that tasty. I was glad I got a simple pasta instead of fish… I would go back and hope for a better experience. If that doesn't go so well, that will be the end of it for me...I would recommend this to a friend.
- EXCELLENT!MVYMVIPDined on 7/19/2014Food SUPERB! Ambiance GREAT! Service most OUTSTANDING!Special Features:
- GarlicVIPDined on 7/14/2014This was our second visit to Bella Via in recent weeks, and it was consistent and tasty. My only comment was that the food was not as hot as it should be served. I think that this was an issue in the kitchen rather than the server. Now that the pleasant surprise is gone from our first return visit, the restaurant must do more than be average. We are hopeful that it will.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dupage76Dined on 7/13/2014we had a very nice evening there. The service was good. Our waiter was very kind. Food was delicious.Special Features:
- Good food, service needs workOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 7/13/2014The food was good, but after being initially attentive, the service was very slow and inattentive the rest of the meal. Staff were friendly once we called their attention, but we shouldn't have to do that repeatedly! We were a party of 10, with children, for a special birthday. Dinner and dessert should not take 3 hours! We were disappointed overall.Special Features:
- OK for the moviespaletteandeyes4beautyVIPDined on 7/12/2014Salmon, and Tuscan style fish sp0ecial (forgot what) OK, like one of your co workers wife who uses good recipes. Nice wine list. Convenient for the movies.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great italian restaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 7/10/2014This is the best Italian Restaurant in Highland Park and as good or better than any in Highwood. Try the veal meatballs ! Daily specials are always good. Food is fresh and well prepared . Waiter was very knowledgeable and attentive.Special Features:
- Dinner and movieGirlsVIPDined on 7/5/2014Too small of a table was given for party of six. Great service by waiterSpecial Features:
- Very enjoyablePinkyVIPDined on 7/5/2014The food was good, but the wait staff was great. Very friendly and speedy and efficient. There were six of us and everything came as we ordered. We definitly will return in the near future. Especially enjoyed eating out side! The noise level was ok.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Food, Outstanding ServicesockgalDined on 6/28/2014The food was really excellent. I had veal marsala,others in our party had ciopino de pesce, salmon and chicken zingata (a special), all of which were delicious. The service was really outstanding with the waiter and busboy very attentive and polite. We couldn't give them five stars for this reason. First, it is a very noisy place. The front isn't too bad, but the back is quite noisy. Also, they ran out of bread- which is sort of ridiculous for a restaurant, but they did have a very large party in the back room, so I wouldn't think this was a usual occurrence. We would definitely go back here again (have been before to parties and individual dining). All in all, fine dining, not too expensive.Special Features:
- rustyVIPDined on 6/21/2014As always, a wonderful dining experience. This last time we went, though, I had the Veal Saltimbocca which was the most delicious Saltimbocca I've ever had. Simply exquisite. We've never had a bad meal, everything has always been delicious. However, what really is amazing is how they handle huge crowds with ease and friendliness. We will be back again and again!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 6/19/2014I made a reservation for Osteria Via Stato in Chicago, but somehow this is the reservation you gave me. Luckily Osteria could accommodate me.
- Great placeOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 6/15/2014Second time I have been to this restaurant. Great atmosphere and very good food. Not a place for kids but wonderful for adults.Special Features:
- APATHYdiningshouldbefunVIPDined on 6/14/2014What happened to the work ethic? If you enjoy spending money at a restaurant with a wait staff that clearly doesn't serve the customer, then dine at Bella Via. After waiting patiently for 20 minutes to be recognized, I had to call a server over to ask for service. He then delegated this to 2 other folks before 1 responded. The waiter approached our table to ask if we wanted a drink & as soon as he took the 1st order, he walked away without asking the other 5 people for their requests. When he brought our drinks he spilled the glass of wine on the table, & walked away for us to clean up. When I asked him to help, he threw a napkin on the table. He failed to give us the right appetizer and never asked if we wanted dessert or coffee.
- A Pleasant SurpriseGarlicVIPDined on 6/9/2014We had not been to Bella Via in several years because it was just average. We are pleased that we decided to try it anew. The food was very good, portions, ample, and entrees are served with soup or salad. The kitchen was accommodating in preparing the dishes without some ingredients, and some things on the side. Service was OK, nothing special, but they did get the order correct. I recommend that you try it on nights when the restaurant does not have a private party, because that does slow the kitchen and service down significantly. We will be going back relatively soon.I would recommend this to a friend.

- Solid Food, Ambiance lacking.LawagsDined on 4/26/2014We created our reservation late in the day but were able to book a 7:30 PM table on a Saturday night. My suggestion wait until 8 PM, when everyone leaves, as the restaurant caters to a senior older crowd. There was a Bar Mitzvah booked in the private dining area in the rear creating sound bleed/thumping in the main dining room when the party cranked up. The Food was good (my husband and I both enjoyed different tender flavorful Veal Dishes) and Servers were attentive. Wine selection was fair - a decent bottle to fit every price point. But notably the Glassware and silver were old - not the charming type of old. The restaurant needs to update/upgrade to draw in the younger affluent town crowd - the next generation of loyal diners.Special Features:
- Trouble with reservationOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 4/26/2014We go here a lot, because the food is very good. However, they invariably screw up our reservation. Every single time we end up sitting at the cramped bar for over half an hour while we wait on our table. This despite always having a reservation. This past Saturday was the worst ever. We sat in the bar for 45 minutes waiting on our table to open up. Several other parties were seated while we waited. An open table was visible, but apparently not intended for us. A waiter who recognized us told the hostess to sit us at the open table. She refused. After 45 minutes we left and had a lovely dinner at Nietos. We will not soon be back to Bella Via.
- out2lunchDined on 4/19/2014Menu has wide variety of well-prepared Italian dishes, served attentively in a friendly atmosphere. We're lucky to have them as a neighborhood restaurant.Special Features:
- Reliably goodCT90Dined on 4/5/2014Had 6:30 reservations on a Saturday night.; seated right away. Waiter came frequently early on, but once he got the idea we were not in a hurry he adjusted his pace to ours. Everyone loved their meal; all 4 plates went back empty. Portions are nice: not at all skimpy/not gargantuan . Most entrees with meat or fish were around $25-$30. A cannoli connoisseur at our table gave the cannoli high marks, and I had a fantastic gelato. The dining room was busy the whole evening, but noise never interfered with our ability to comfortably carry on a conversation. We left at nine, and at no point felt rushed along. I have taken kids as young as 6 here when they have their outdoor tables set up on the sidewalk. Have never left disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

The Face, 2010
Hiking with my Backpacking class at Roanoke College. Great experience, though I should have taken it a bit more seriously.
I regret it a little, but it provides an important lesson; I fully understand the repercussions of taking time for granted and for this reason I keep going with my photography. If I'm lucky, I'll look back in 10 years and see a road map of my life plastered on white walls.
Near Olin and across John's Bridge, Roanoke College, 2010
The possibilities can be endless; looking back and looking ahead, they both go hand to hand, benefiting each other. One were things about ourselves are hopefully discovered and the other where those discoveries are then used to further guide us down our path.
It's hard to, but never assume in this world. Different perspectives can quite easily lead to misunderstandings and miscommunications (and no one wants to be wrong). Instead, be clear and concise in hoping you'd be heard clearly and with intend.
Define your own failures, and success will define itself for you, rather it's what you expect or not. Expect the unexpected and be surprised all the same. No one will say you didn't do, when you did.
An Untitled Portrait of Nick
Here's an old photo I have from my last year of college. I had just received my first digital camera that last Christmas and I had the habit of always taking pictures of my friends (I even had a colleague say my obsession was quite overbearing once, making her feel uncomfortable at times). Needless to say it was quite the challenge making a transition from film to digital.
Back then I was only focusing on capturing an appealing photo straight out of the camera (SOOC) by working to improve on my composition and timing; I mostly shot in high quality jpeg as well, though partially to save hard drive space. I didn't even start to experiment with post processing, an important aspect of photography I didn't realize, until after I graduated college.
Still, by always shooting I didn't give myself time to delete photos or share them. In part, I contribute this to a lack of skill in determining which photos were good or bad. It's taken some time, but now I know that an artist's vision will help determine those distinctions and it's something I didn't quite develop until I began to experiment with post processing in Lightroom.
Work on your technique and eventually you'll begin to see the potential in your own work; be confident and sell your vision.

Date Reviewed: December 31, 2005
Strengths: Very stiff for an inverted fork, but its still an inverted fork. Two way compression dampening works great, the air cap allows the fork to take 15+ foot drops, yet be supple enought for dh racing by adding air. The rebound adjustments are a bit touchy, but with a little tome the proper setting can be found. Im 210 with gear, the fork has stock springs, with 130psi in the chamber, i can drop 10 footers with confidence, white brothers has a heavy ride kit option for the fork that i may get when i start to go biger, it is susposed to make the fork more progresive, with out losing feel by cranking down on the compression dampner.
I have the 8" version, love it, i hear the travel can be reduced to 7" internally, may try it for trail riding.
The fork is super plush and looks pretty danm good too
Weaknesses: none so far
Bottom Line:
Super Plush
Bottomless Travel
Exceptional Tuneability

Innovative IP Policies
We make it easy for industry to work with us by offering an innovative set of intellectual property management practices to address IP associated with these collaborations, including options that allow full retention of associated IP by our industry partners.
ASU's "Security & Defense Systems Initiative" actively seeks to partner with large and small companies and with government entities to form collaborative teams that can address problems which none of these alone can tackle. We also recognize that traditional university intellectual property management policies can be one of the greatest inhibitors to achieving effective university-industry partnering.
For this reason, ASU has developed a set of innovative IP management options that address many of the traditional limitations of university research and development partnerships with industry. We are able to engage in creative, nontraditional contractual mechanisms in our interactions with industry, including options for full retention of associated IP by our industry partners, that allow us to overcome many of the traditional obstacles to effective industry-university partnerships.
These innovative IP management policies create an environment that enables our industry and government partners to far more easily access the breadth of technical expertise found in the largest single university in the U.S., and to engage and collaborate with university researchers in application-relevant research and development programs than is possible at most other universities.
Arizona Technology Enterprises (AzTE) is the exclusive intellectual property management and technology transfer organization for Arizona State University. AzTE works with researchers, investors and our industry partners to speed the flow of innovation from our research laboratories into practical use in the marketplace.

I've been saying that one of my problems with this "Death of the Family" crossover is that it's running a bit long. As much as I usually like Gail Simone's writing, I think that's true even of her Batgirl tie-ins. This issue has Joker going ahead with the forced wedding to Batgirl. Most of the issue is psychological posturing by the Joker, and then a whole lot of fighting. James Gordon Jr shows up and tells Batgirl that he has freed Mrs. Gordon, which allows her to go on a very brutal rampage through the henchmen. This is the most vicious I've ever seen Barbara portrayed, which makes sense given what's going on.
The fight is ended a bit unexpectedly. Batgirl finally gets to Joker, but is ambushed by James Jr knocking her out. James tells the Joker that either Joker lets Mrs. Gordon go (he lied about freeing her) or James will kill Batgirl before Joker can get to her, and ruin whatever elaborate plan Joker has. James sets off a grenade, and we come back from fading to black with Joker still having Batgirl. He taunts her with some platter covered by a silver serving dome, which has shown up in a few other issues of this mess.
As I've said with other pieces of this crossover, I really think it could be shorter. I was really hoping James Jr would do something more central to the plot. I knew it wouldn't happen, but I actually was really hoping he'd kill the Joker. All we really got was a lot of Batgirl being uncharacteristically, if understandably, violent. I'm mildly curious to see what Joker has under this dome, but overall, I'm just kinda waiting for this event to end. Not because I really want to see what happens, I'm just kinda sick of hearing about it. I really don't think anything will happen that will really shake up the status quo. Maybe some of the Bats will end up not talking to each other for a while, but I don't see anything much more serious than that happening. Maybe I'm wrong; I'd be happy to be wrong. But somehow, I don't I will be.

A U.S. drone strike in Yemen Thursday was aimed at killing Anwar al-Awlaki, the American-born radical cleric who is suspected of orchestrating terrorist attacks on the U.S, but the missile missed its target, according to Yemeni and U.S. officials.
The drone strike comes less than a week after a U.S. Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden at a compound in Pakistan. Had the drone strike in Yemen been successful, the U.S. would have killed two of the top three most-wanted terrorists in a single week.
A liberal democrat president campaigned on ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and bringing the troops home "first thing". Since then, 30k more troops have gone to Afghanistan and drone strikes in countries we haven't even declared war with have tripled under his administration. To top it all off, this same liberal democrat is signing off on targeted killings of American citizens without due process.
Get your facts right before you start calling him a liar. President Obama said often during the campaign that he would refocus our efforts in Afghanistan.
On July 20, 2008, then-Senator Obama spoke with CBS' Lara Logan and discussed his plans for Iraq and Afghanistan. Here are some quotes:
"For at least a year now, I have called for two additional brigades, perhaps three. I think it's very important that we unify command more effectively to coordinate our military activities. But military alone is not going to be enough.
The Afghan government needs to do more. But we have to understand that the situation is precarious and urgent here in Afghanistan. And I believe this has to be our central focus, the central front, on our battle against terrorism.
And despite what the Bush Administration has argued, I don't think there's any doubt that we were distracted from our efforts not only to hunt down al-Qaeda and the Taliban, but also to rebuild this country so that people have confidence that we were to here to stay over the long haul, that we were going to rebuild roads, provide electricity, improve the quality of life for people. And now we have a chance, I think, to correct some of those areas.
There's starting to be a broad consensus that it's time for us to withdraw some of our combat troops out of Iraq, deploy them here in Afghanistan. And I think we have to seize that opportunity. Now's the time for us to do it.
He even discusses his plans regarding Pakistan:
What I've said is that if we had actionable intelligence against high-value al-Qaeda targets, and the Pakistani government was unwilling to go after those targets, that we should. My hope is that it doesn't come to that - that in fact, the Pakistan government would recognize that if we had Osama bin Laden in our sights that we should fire or we should capture him.
Here's then-Senator Obama's plan for Afghanistan and Pakistan, in which he calls for two additional brigades to be sent to Afghanistan, that is, 7,000 troops.
Seems to me he's doing exactly what he said he would. And when and where did he sign off on killing American citizens without due process? Provide some evidence for your claims. Oh, what's that? You can't? Because it's not true? Then stop lying.
Kind of sucks when facts get in the way of your ranting, doesn't it?

Participatory Management Clearinghouse describe
Amongst all its many deep deliberations, the 25th meeting of the Ramsar Standing Committee weighed and pondered the question of the implementation of Resolution VII.8 on participation of local communities and indigenous people in wetland management, and at the end of the day agreed upon this:
Decision SC25-8: The Standing Committee welcomed and supported the joint initiative by IUCN, WWF, and the Ramsar Bureau to establish a Participatory Management Networking Service (PMNS), to be managed by IUCNs Social Policy Programme.
(See also agenda paper SC25-9 at the Ramsar Web site: http://ramsar.org/key_sc25_docs09.htm .)
Here is a bit more background information on that SC decision:
The Participatory Management Networking Service (PMNS) [now called the Participatory Management Clearinghouse] is a joint initiative of IUCN (The World Conservation Union), the Bureau of the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran, 1971), and the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). This service will facilitate the dissemination of information concerning participatory management of natural resources (Collaborative Management, Community-Based Management and Indigenous Peoples Management). PMNS will link existing networks/institutions to promote a better flow of rich and diverse experience, providing a common space to share lessons learned.
This service is in its early development, under the coordination of the Social Policy Programme at IUCN. The focus at this stage is on constructing a Web page, which will eventually become the backbone of the service, and act as an information index for information on participatory management of natural resources (it should be noted that only abstracts and summaries will be featured on the site). The intent of the site is to help those interested in participatory management approaches to find out the publications, events and then go directly to the authors, intuitions or organizations that have produced them.
Furthermore, for the next stage of this service, the patners in this endeavor are contemplating the development of regional PMNS components and the use of alternative formats (like CD-ROM, print outs), to make it more accessible to different users worldwide.
At present those developing the initiative are seeking help in providing information on documents, events and initiatives dealing with participatory management of natural resources from the Ramsar community. This information would be used to feed the Web Page and reflect the contribution that the Ramsar Convention and its partner organizations are making to the field of participatory management. The main point of this service is to facilitate sharing of information -- this free service is being set up to allow interested parties to go to one venue to find diverse documents and events regarding participatory management.
The principal contact for the PMNS within IUCN HQ is Ms. Joanne Pereira, and the Ramsar Bureau's liaison person is Mr. Anada Tiéga, Regional Coordinator for Africa (firstname.lastname@example.com). Joanne Pereira can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com , fax ++ 41 (22) 999-0025 or by phone at ++ 41 (22) 999-0272 .
Update: as of April 2001, the PMNS has changed its name to the Participatory Management Clearinghouse (PMC).

A handful of sketches of the Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe concept have leaked onto the web ahead of its official debut at the Shanghai Motor Show this week. The sketches show a small crossover from the German brand that could likely rival the Mercedes-Benz GLA that was also revealed this week. The leakage comes courtesy of German magazine Auto Motor und Sport, and follows in the footsteps of the larger, three-row CrossBlue concept that debuted in Detroit earlier this year.
The Coupe, however, will likely ditch the CrossBlue's third row of seats, and if the larger Volkswagen concept is supposed to hint at the next-generation Touareg, perhaps this smaller, swoopier concept is our first look at the smaller Tiguan successor. All we know is that it's based on Volkswagen's flexible MQB small car architecture, and a lot of its elements could work its way across the VW lineup in the future.
Under the hood is reported to be a turbocharged V6 paired with two electric motors, good for a combined output of 409 horsepower. The CrossBlue Coupe concept can apparently sprint to 62 miles per hour in just 5.9 seconds, has an all-electric range of about 20 miles, and will reportedly achieve 78 miles per gallon in the US. Impressive.
We'll have more details on the CrossBlue Coupe concept later this week, so stay tuned for all the official goods, as well as live impressions direct from Shanghai.

EDMONTON -- The Edmonton Oilers now have the dubious status of holding the longest active playoff drought in the NHL.
The Oilers will miss the playoffs for a seventh consecutive season after losing 3-1 to the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday.
Taylor Hall scored the lone goal for the Oilers (17-20-7), who have lost seven of their last eight games and were officially eliminated from the playoffs for yet another season. The string of futility stretches back to their loss in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final against the Carolina Hurricanes in 2006.
"To have another season where we're out of the playoffs, another season where we're playing meaningless games at the end of the year, is very frustrating," Hall said. "It's something we're not proud of."
Oilers captain Shawn Horcoff, who has been with the team for the entire seven years on the outside looking in, said it hasn't been an easy process to be a part of.
"It's tough, it's been extremely tough on me," he said. "We made some steps and at least this year we got some meaningful games in, gave ourselves a chance to get in, but it fell off as of late.
"I think we're moving in the right direction. It's just a little slower than we'd like."
It was a badly-needed victory for the Ducks (28-11-6) as Cam Fowler, Kyle Palmieri and Corey Perry scored to help the team snap a four-game losing skid.
"It was a step closer to where we want to be," said Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf. "There are still mistakes that we need to eliminate going into the playoffs, but this was a much-needed win tonight and one that I felt we deserved. It's all about playing the right way going into the playoffs. This was a step in the right direction."
The Ducks can clinch the Pacific Division title with another win over the Oilers in the rematch in Edmonton on Monday.
"It's great to have a win again after what has been happening for the last little while," said Ducks goalie Jonas Hiller, who stopped 27 shots for the win. "We knew that we needed to play better, but sometimes it is not that easy. Tonight I think that everybody worked a little harder and that made the difference."
The Oilers had a quick start to the game, scoring exactly one minute in. Hall notched his 15th of the year as he came in off the boards to beat Hiller between the legs with a wrist shot from the right face-off dot.
The Ducks evened it up with just 1.1 seconds remaining in the opening period as Oiler centre Jerred Smithson broke his stick on the faceoff and Fowler was able to pick up a rebound and bank in his first of the year off of Edmonton goalie Devan Dubnyk's pads.
Anaheim took a 2-1 lead with just under a minute to play in the second period as Palmieri tried to get a pass through to Teemu Selanne on a two-on-one, but the pass was blocked by a diving Ladislav Smid. However, Palmieri was able to dig the puck from under Smid and deposit his 10th of the year behind Dubnyk.
The Ducks went up 3-1 midway through the third when Getzlaf made a great move to walk around Smid and then sent a backhand pass in front for Perry, who had an easy tap-in for the goal.
The Ducks hit the post twice with Dubnyk pulled for the final two minutes.
Notes: It was the second of three meetings between the two teams this season. Anaheim came in to the game as the winners of their last nine in Edmonton and 12 of the last 14 meetings overall. ... The Oilers announced Sunday that 2011 first overall draft pick Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is out for the remainder of the season as he likely requires shoulder surgery. ... Edmonton forwards Ales Hemsky (foot), Eric Belanger (groin) and Lennart Petrell (leg) are also probably done for the year. ... Anaheim was missing Luca Sbisa (upper body) and defenceman Sheldon Souray (lower body).

Problem with displaying the image gallery
25 June 2009 at 8:51am
I am a new bee to SilverStripe. I have just configured the image gallery module in my site as per the instructions in the installation guide. I have created a page called "Gallery" and have changed its behavior to page type "Image Gallery Page". I have created an album and have uploaded images to it. Now my problem is when i go to the public site and click on the Gallery page no images are displayed.
Please let me know if I am missing any thing. That would be a great help for me.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Shiva,
you don't mention that you actually selected the album (in which you uploaded the files) in CMS admin.
In order to do so you go to your gallery page (in admin), click on the tab "files", and there you select the album.

Home shopping networks and infomercials have been the butt of jokes for years, known primarily for low-budget production values and disposable impulse-buy products. However, with annual sales now topping $350 billion and well-known brands increasingly embracing the marketing model, the direct-response marketing industry is having the last laugh.
The industry has matured into one that provides innovative products with a proven channel to consumers, and Wisconsin-based Norman Direct is one of the leading names in the field. Executive Vice President Brian Wargula credits the company's success first and foremost to the high-quality products it helps develop and bring to market, but there are more than a few key advantages that give it an edge in the industry.

Big-box retailers can be much more convenient for shoppers with their massive breadth of offerings, and their large buying capacity can help reduce the prices of their goods. But even with those big-box benefits, many consumers enjoy and even prefer shopping at smaller independents, primarily for the dedicated and consistent customer service, as well as their more unique product portfolio.
But when so many consumers are concerned about cost above all, it can be difficult for independent retailers to remain competitive. That's why MEGA Group USA has developed its comprehensive suite of services – to ensure the success of its members by helping them increase profits.

No matter how much the world changed around him, Jim Winey, founder of Magnepan, knew that there would always be a market for his company. Winey created the Magneplanar loudspeaker as an alternative to electrostatic loudspeakers, and the company has manufactured Magneplanar stereo and home theater speakers for the past 44 years.
Marketing Manager Wendell Diller says the invention is a "kissing cousin" to full-range electrostatic speakers and takes a purist approach when it comes to transmitting sound. The company aspires to attain the Holy Grail of loudspeaker design and the audience for its products is definitely a niche market, he says. Yet, its speakers are among the most affordable in their category.

Inmar started more than three decades ago when its founders saw they could improve the way couponing was handled and processed, saving retailers and manufacturers money. Since that time, Inmar has branched out into other spaces and handled $38 billion in commercial transactions.
"Whenever you use a coupon, get a prescription filled or engage in a product return, chances are that Inmar platforms are somewhere in there, handling decisions and money flows and sometimes physical goods," CEO David Mounts says.

The first rule to succeed in retail is to make a great product. The second rule is to make sure people see that product. After all, what's the use of having a great product, if no one sees and subsequently buys it? Family owned Magid Glove & Safety has mastered the art of both.
The Chicago-based company was founded in 1946 by Sam Magid, his son-in-law Abe Cohen, and Abe's brother David Cohen as a manufacturer and supplier of leather work gloves to the Midwest's steel industry. Today, Magid Glove & Safety is a leading manufacturer, importer, distributor and direct supplier of hand protection, protective clothing, first aid and personal protective equipment for the industrial market.

Some firms might be afraid to allow their workers to make major decisions, but not Little Lady Foods. Instead, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing Peter Cokinos says, the company trusts its associates to make the right decisions.
"Our style and management philosophy is not to create a lot of bureaucracy," he explains. "Our strategic focus on the customer allows the organization to make decisions always with their best interest in mind."

Variety and versatility are the hallmarks of the products KLN Family Brands manufactures. These include Barrel O' Fun snack foods, Kenny's Candy, Tuffy's Pet Foods and the newest, NutHeads Chocolate Factory, which was established last year.
"Not only do we have many different branded opportunities that are excellent products and we can put excellent programs together to take care of retailers' needs, [but] if they're looking for a store brand, we are willing to have that conversation," declares Shane Kangas, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Kenny's Candy.
Read more: KLN Family Brands
"A lot of manufacturers don't want to private-label," he points out. "We're prone to having that conversation. It's allowed us to do a lot of business with customers across the country. Maybe our brands don't resonate with them, but they have a strong store following." KLN can also provide store brands for its retail clients; in fact, Kangas estimates up to 60 percent of the company's production is private-label.

My Life Is Like Groundhog Day
Life with young children can feel like your days are on repeat
Do you ever feel like your days are repeating themselves? Or that you can predict how the day will go based on how your little one pops their head up out of bed?
The early years of parenting are very much like the movie, "Groundhog Day" where Phil, a weatherman, relives the same day over and over again. I think this is why I can't believe three years have gone by since my daughter was born.
Days with my little ones often blur together, especially during the winter. We are cooped up more and our daily activities are more or less the same. Sure, there's dance class and gymnastics, dinners out, visiting with friends and family, but the bulk of our days are similar. Some days I feel like all I've done is dress/undress, diaper and feed my kids. They're important tasks, but they can give you the feeling that everyday is exactly the same. And it totally skews my sense of time. (What day is it today?) The worst was during the newborn era. There may have been a few days when I never left the couch because of round-the-clock nursing sessions. Plus, it's hard to remember what day it is when you don't sleep or change out of your pajamas.
Then for the next few years of their lives you feel like a broken record with repeat conversations. No, you can't climb that. Leave the cats alone. Stop jumping on the couch. Don't sit on your brother. Please don't lick the mirror. Didn't I just tell you this yesterday/this morning/5 minutes ago?
I try to use these repetitive days to my advantage to learn what works best with my kids. Some days I really nail this parenting thing, while other days I totally miss the mark. It's amazing how differently things can go day-to-day with toddlers, even when the days are practically the same. I can cut my daughter's peanut butter sandwich in squares every day for a week, then suddenly one day it triggers a meltdown because she wanted triangles. Thankfully, I get to try again the next day.
Time feels fast and slow all at once. It's practically standing still for me, but unlike Phil's looping day, my babies are growing up with each go-round. And I don't get endless do-overs to get it right.
Much like waiting to see if the groundhog sees his shadow, I try to make predictions about our day based on how my kids wake up. I rarely have to wake them, but it's not all sunshine and smiles even when they awaken on their own. Whining first thing in the morning usually fades by lunchtime, giving us an enjoyable afternoon and evening. Smiles in the morning may be deceiving with a chance for scattered meltdowns. What time they wake up is usually a good indicator if they'll nap or not and when they'll be tired for bedtime.
Though if there's one thing the groundhog has taught me, time still passes the same whether he sees his shadow or not. And living in Wisconsin, the length of winter is relative. Good days and bad days happen, often on the same day. One day we'll wake up and realize our days are no longer looping… and we'll wonder where the time went.

CLEVELAND -- Kyrie Irving managed to find a silver lining -- and a sliver of hope for the Cavaliers' playoff chances -- while dealing with his latest injury.
The All-Star point guard will miss at least two weeks with a strained biceps tendon, but he's hopeful his season is not over.
"If you could take a positive from the situation, obviously that would be one, that at this point, I don't have to get surgery, which is tremendous," Irving said following shootaround Tuesday at the Cleveland Clinic Courts.
Cleveland's leading scorer got hurt Sunday night in a loss against the Los Angeles Clippers. An MRI taken Monday revealed the strain, but not a tear, which would have ended Irving's season. It's still not a certainty he'll be back, but the Cavs will rest him for two weeks before making any decisions.
With 15 games left, the Cavs enter their home matchup against Miami five games behind Atlanta for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. It was going to be a challenge for the Cavs to make up any ground with Irving, and now without him, they're in a major bind.
The 21-year-old was trying to strip the ball from Clippers forward Blake Griffin when his tendon gave out.
"One of those freak plays against a strong individual in Blake," Irving said. "I tried to get the ball out of his hands. I knew something was wrong when I came to the bench. Obviously, I just felt just a weird feeling after that play in my shoulder. My arm looked a little different in the biceps area. That's when I knew that I strained it."
Irving will miss at least eight games. He's already sat out 41 in three NBA seasons, leading some to label him as injury prone.
It's still possible he may need an operation, but Irving is trying to be optimistic.
"We'll see in two weeks," he said. "I'm not going to give a definitive answer because I don't know that answer. At this point, I'm just going to continue to support my teammates and be on the sideline. Whatever the medical team needs me to do and whatever's in my best interests, I'm going to do."
With his best player out, Cavs coach Mike Brown will start Dion Waiters in the backcourt with Jarrett Jack. Cleveland could get back C.J. Miles, who has missed 12 games with a sprained ankle.
Waiters has provided a spark off the bench all season, and said he's going start with the same mindset he's had as a reserve.
"Just going out there playing my game, let everything come to me," he said. "Don't go out there and try to press and do things I normally don't do. Just play the game and have fun."
Waiters says all the Cavs have to step it up with Irving sidelined.
"Kyrie is the best player on the team," Waiters said. "But it gives other guys the chance to play and show coach things they can do. We've got to pick it up. Everybody has to be together and play for each other. That's the biggest thing losing a huge piece like that. We have to play the game, move the ball and have fun out there."
It was Canada's night at the NBA Draft as four players from north of the border were selected.
1. Andrew Wiggins - Cavaliers
8. Nik Stauskas - Kings
18. Tyler Ennis - Suns
45. Dwight Powell - Hornets

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
As part of a raiding guild that has a successful 25 man, i've been wondering why i'm feelng bored. Is it just too much WoW or is it just as you are saying. Hard modes are the same fight with a twist. A fellow guildie and I were thinking....Is there anything in Ulduar (except legendary for healers) that is the one item you MUST have. That special WOW that's totally cool! Haven't seen it yet.
Also - as much as the 10 mans are fun. I have a preference for 25 mans. there's nothing like the challenge of getting a large group of people to do what they must to get something done. even more so, on fights that are space limiting. lol. It saddens me to see many 25 man guilds fading. :(

Calling for Rapid Development of a Safe and Effective MERS Vaccine
Peter J. Hotez, Maria Elena Botazzi, Chien-Te K. Tseng, Bin Zhan, Sara Lustigman
Microbes and Infection, Available online 12 June 2014 (in press, accepted manuscript)
Full article on Science Direct - free access until 31 December 2014
The geographic spread and rapid increase in the cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) caused by a novel coronavirus (MERS-CoV) during the past two months have raised concern about its pandemic potential. Here we call for the rapid development of an effective and safe MERS vaccine to control the spread of MERS-CoV.
Coronavirus; MERS-CoV; receptor; receptor-binding domain; vaccine
Very recently, a new case of Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus (MERS-CoV) was reported in a 44-year-old man living in Yemen with no relevant travel history - possibly the first autochthonous case outside of Saudi Arabia. When considered with recent news of the three reported cases of MERS in the United States, there is urgency to consider renewing the global commitment to combat MERS and accelerate the development of a MERS vaccine.
To date, however, the interest and enthusiasm of the global public health community in both MERS and a MERS vaccine could be described as ambivalent. At last year's World Health Assembly in Geneva, Dr. Margaret Chan, the World Health Organization (WHO) Director General, announced that MERS-CoV is "a threat to the entire world". However, later that summer, a special WHO panel muted such sentiments by indicating that MERS did not yet constitute a "public health emergency of international concern" [1]. As of May 23, 2014, 635 laboratory-confirmed cases of MERS-CoV infection, including 193 deaths, had been reported to WHO from seven countries in the Middle East, two countries in Africa, six countries in Europe, two countries in Asia, and one country in North America [2].

So if you have some money and it changes into ****, only a moron would be upset about that? Change is good, but only when its for the better.
There are a lot of good additions to S2 but most of the mechanical changes seem to be in the wrong direction. Adding limitations to everything just sucks the fun out when its the ONLY way you are allowed to play (no alternate modes or anything).

"He was awful," a Steelers teammate said of LaMarr Woodley's performance last season. And that's not all he said
"He was awful," a Steelers teammate said of LaMarr Woodley's performance last season. And that's not all he said
Ron Cook quotes a Steelers player in his column today saying: "He tells us he works out, but we didn't see it. He wasn't in shape. That has to be a reason why he was always hurt." And Cook writes: Colbert defended Woodley when asked about that assessment, saying Woodley always has carried a lot of weight. That might be true, but Woodley was a much different player, a much worse player. He looked heavy and slow. He had just four sacks after getting nine in the first half of the 2011 season before a serious hamstring injury ruined that season for him.

You Can't Out Diet Lousy Training
I may turn this into a full blown article, but mostly I'm sick of the diet freaks who say diet is 90%. Yeah, diet is all important if your training is set, but if your routine sucks, or you aren't training, you aren't going to get anywhere. Dieting down is an art and a science, but if your training is wrong, it won't go well. Bulks end up in making people fat because their training sucks. or because they eat 3x what their body needs (my specialty), but here's my basic premise:
Unless you are dieting for a BB competition, training is what matters most. Don't eat like an idiot, train harder than the day before, and good things happen.

#16 Barter for something
If you haven't heard the story of the guy who bartered a red paperclip for a house then watch the video above. Bartering is the trading of goods for the same value or greater. Today walk into a shop and try to barter them down on price. If you're truly hardcore leave the wallet at home and barter for everything. If you haven't got any possessions to trade then barter your time and skills.
Tell us about your bartering adventures in the comments below or on Twitter using the hashtag #29things.
