As reports have surfaced of possible use of sarin gas in the Syrian civil war, calls by long-time proponents of U.S. intervention on behalf of the anti-Assad rebels have grown to a fever pitch. These same voices, both at home and abroad, have evoked the administration's previously stated "red line" on use of chemical weapons. But even assuming that reports of WMD usage in Syria turn out to be true, the Obama Administration's position may be far more nuanced than previously thought.[more inside]
"The only chance we have as a country have right now is for Osama bin Laden to deploy and detonate a major weapon in the United States [...] only Osama can execute an attack which will force Americans to demand that their government protect them [...] with as much violence as necessary."[more inside]
What is the logical consequence of noting the fact that the terrorist groups that make a difference on planet Earth—such as Hamas and Hezbollah, the PLO, Colombia's FARC—are extensions of, respectively, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, and Venezuela? It is the negation of the U.S. government's favorite axiom. It means that when George W. Bush spoke, and when Barack Obama speaks, of America being "at war" against "extremism" or "extremists" they are either being stupid or acting stupid to avoid dealing with the nasty fact that many governments wage indirect warfare.International relations professor Angelo M. Codevilla argues that Osama bin Laden is not quite influential, not quite relevant, and probably dead. (multipage version)

Secret celebrity weddings
Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied
Sorry guys! Natalie Portman is officially off the market. The Black Swan star married her French-born choreographer in a Jewish ceremony at a private home near Big Sur in California on the 4th of August 2012!
The simple ceremony was held under a chuppah in front of just 60 guests.

Everywhere we turn, we are reminded that fall is here and that means the holidays will creep up on us very shortly. I started making my list of food items we'll need for our Thanksgiving meal and it amazed me how many things were on "that" list. I noticed in the markets that both vanilla and chocolate have gone up, so I'm grabbing a few things already.With the first hint of fall, we sure like a different taste in our recipes - more hot things and not as many cold salads. The Cheese Soup is easy, tasty and kids like it. And they really like to make the peanut butter kissed cookies. I'm very careful, however, that these don't go to school because of peanut allergies. And it wouldn't be fall at the Thompson's without a bowl of red cabbage with apples.Grammy's Cheese Soup3 cups filtered or bottled water1 teaspoon Lowery salt3 ribs celery2 carrots1 medium sweet onion1/2 stick of butter2 cans potato soup1 cup sour cream1 pound Velveeta cheeseChop the celery fairly fine, as well as the carrots and onion. Saute veggies in butter until tender. Add water and seasoning salt. Simmer 30 minutes. Add the 2 cans of soup and simmer 30 minutes more. Remove from heat. Add sour cream and Velveeta to hot soup (I cut the Velveeta up in chunks first). Stir well until cheese is melted.Thompson's Red Cabbage with Apples3 tart red apples, sliced4 Tablespoons UNSALTED butter1 large head of red cabbage, coarsely shredded (about 10 cups)1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup red wine vinegar3 Tablespoons sugar1/3 teaspoon freshly ground black pepperUsing a heavy Dutch oven, stir apples in butter over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer until cabbage is tender, usually between 15-20 minutes. This feeds about 8 people and is good as a leftover.Kid's Easy Breezy Peanut Butter "Kissed" CookiesChildren can really get into this cookie recipe and don't be surprised if the adults enjoy a few. Please note again to be sure no-one is around these cookies, or anything else made of peanut butter, if they are allergic to peanuts. Because there is no flour in this recipe, these cookies are gluten-free. I have made these cookies without the kisses but I think it adds a real good flavor.1 large egg, lightly beaten1 cup crunchy peanut butter1 cup white sugar36 milk chocolate kisses, unwrapped from their foilCombine first 3 ingredients. Shape into 3/4 inch balls. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from oven and immediately press a chocolate kiss in center of each cookie. Cool on a wire rack. This makes about 3 dozen cookies.• Next week, let's begin exploring the holiday recipes we know and love, and maybe discover a few we haven't made before. I'm on my way to the store to buy a large vanilla extract and more chocolate for baking. Have a great week in Parker County and let's hope the recent rains have watered our gardens and helped our area lakes. You won't hear me complaining about getting wet outside in the rain.

LEU3 encodes a transcription factor that regulates the transcription of genes encoding enzymes involved in branched-chain amino acid synthesis (2). It is a member of the zinc cluster protein family, containing six conserved cysteines that bind two zinc ions in a binuclear cluster (3), Zn(II)2Cys6 genes reviewed in (8).
The Leu3 protein consists of the following five domains:
- zinc cluster DNA binding domain from amino acids 37-67, which is similar to the Gal4 DNA binding domain (9).
- linker region that specifies binding to the everted repeat (rather than a palindrome or direct repeat) target site (10, 4).
- alpha-helix/heptad repeat domain from amino acids 85-102 involved in dimerization (9).
- middle region that is involved in the regulation of Leu3p by alpha-IPM (see below) (11, 4, 9).
- acidic activation domain from amino acids 856-886 (9, 4).
The Leu3p target site is an everted repeat, not a palindrome or direct repeat (12); Leu3p binds this CCG-N4-CGG sequence as a homodimer (13). The four basepair spacing is necessary for recognition by Leu3p; altering the spacing to three or five abolishes binding (12). The activity of Leu3p is positively regulated by alpha-isopropylmalate (IPM), the product of the first step in leucine biosynthesis (6). The absence of IPM promotes intramolecular Leu3p interactions between the Leu3p activation domain and the middle region. This results in the masking of the Leu3p activation domain (4, 9). This regulation does not affect Leu3p nuclear localization or DNA binding, as Leu3p is constitutively bound to its target sites (14). The degree of activation by Leu3p is Leu3p concentration dependent, and it has been shown that LEU3 gene expression is regulated by general amino acid control, which is mediated by the Gcn4 transcription factor (3, 9).
Several genes whose expression is regulated by Leu3p have been identified, including LEU1(2), LEU2(2, 12), LEU4(2), ILV2(2), ILV5(2), GDH1(15), and BAP2(16).

Style & disability should not be mutually exclusive
If you're disabled people assume your sense of style is no longer important e.g. disability equipment designers & manufacturers think we like 'grey' and purely functional design. They also assume we have no money to pay for premium products.
Smart, trendy places assume we don't want too visit so don't pay attention to disabled access & facilities. If they have them they are rarely shown on their websites

Oct 14 2013: I agree this is the case but in the UK and via our efforts at Blue Badge Style, we are aiming to talk to manufacturers, designers and consumers. In he Uk 'low end care needs' are now being pushed down to the end user rather than the NHS or local Authorities so the end user market is definitely growing and more demanding re 'style'.

SUPERIOR, WI (KDAL) - One person is dead and another is in custody after a shooting on Thursday in Superior. Police responded to what was thought to be a suicide in the parking lot of the Genesis plant on Conners Point at 12:20 p-m. Evidence and an investigation soon showed that the shooting was not a suicide but a homicide and a suspect was identified. The suspect was located at the Allyndale Motel in Duluth and was taken into custody just before 6 p-m. The suspect is in the St. Louis County Jail on a Douglas County warrant for first degree intentional homicide. The investigation continues and the names of the victim and suspect have not yet been released,

The Dolphins lost left tackle Jake Long in the first quarter of Sunday's game and they fear they won't have him back again this year.
That's the word from both Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald and Jeff Darlington of NFL.com from Miami after the game. Long left with what was called a left triceps injury during the contest and the Dolphins are afraid he's torn it. He'll have an MRI on Monday, but Salguero reports that two players and a team official told him that was the working diagnosis. Darlington's source says that "it doesn't look good."
If so, it could have been Long's final game as a Dolphin. Rookie Jonathan Martin replaced Long on Sunday and would likely remain there if the worst fears are realized. That would give the Dolphins an extended evaluation of Martin's fitness for the job, something that will come in handy with Long set to become a free agent after the season.
Long's play hasn't been met with many positive reviews this year, so a good showing from Martin could lead the Dolphins to go with the cheaper and younger option at left tackle.

LT>>>>>WRI disagree. We've gone that O-line route faithfully since 2008 and where has it gotten us??We have two 1sts, a 2nd and a 3rd (not mention Incognito was a high pick) on the line and it still sucks. Not to mention the bust draft picks and free agents?? How is selecting Jake Long over Matt Ryan working out for both teams?? They're potential SuperBowl participents and we're still running in circles. This is a scoring league and the Dolphins are whoefully behind the times. Playmakers are the No. 1 need.

I remember both the Rams and Dolphins claimed there were zero offers to trade out of the top two picks so I think other teams doubted Ryan as well. Obviously they were wrong but I understood the thought process at the time.

Am from the south, have never had better. First had this pimiento cheese at Louis Osteen's Charleston Grill, 1991, located in The Omni hotel in Charleston, SC. He served this pimiento cheese at Friday happy hour with giant flat bread. Always remembered it. Purchased his cookbook a few years back, which I love, just for this recipe. A guaranteed crowd pleaser, and, it never fails... "this is the best pimento cheese! What is the recipe?" The grated onion is genius!

love this cheese!
susanmcgee Posted: 04/12/14
This is excellent! I really like the little kick from the red pepper (reminds me of cheese straws). The only thing I might do next time is save and drained juice from the pimentos and add a bit to the end because I really like the pimento flavor, plus it will help it from tightening too much in the refrigerator.
Danicallah Posted: 11/17/13
Pimento cheese is one of my favorites. I have always purchased it pre-made from the store. NEVER AGAIN! This recipe is absolutely delicious. In fact, I have found myself having a hard time not going to the fridge for "just one more"...I have a stand-up mixer and what a breeze to throw together. I'm in heaven! I can't wait until our next party for my pimento cheese debut!

Hi folks,
Today I would like to invite all of you developers that wishes to feel the experience of great moments during a hackathon in São Paulo, Brazil in this next Oct, 27 at Academia. For more information, please access
I had the big opportunity to participate of previous hackathon in Recife, BR (#1) and in San Jose, USA (#6) and it was really amazing to feel the very positive environment and to learn at the same time to help other people to reach their goals that it is basically develop an app in 10 hours and in the end be judged by a set of 4 judges that give comments about your work and you can get this as a feedback to improve your app.
I really appreciate all the hard work Demian Borda and his team to bring all of this for you… All is focused on the developers and make them more them happy to generate a good work while having pizza and red bull, all for free.
So, let' do you folks!!!
Warm regards,

Smith, Investment and Production (1961), especially emphasizes the relationship between long-run costs and investment. Probably the best technical presentation is Paul A. Samuelson, Foundations of Economic Analysis, enlarged ed. (1983). George J. Stigler, Production and Distribution Theories (1941, reissued 1994), provides a discussion of the evolution of the theory. J. Viner, "Cost Curves and Supply Curves," Zeitschrift für Nationalökonomie, 3:23–46 (1931), remains a classic text.

Crystal Foust watches from County Road 56 as a helicopter flies over a wildfire burning in a mountainous area about 15 miles west of Fort Collins, Colo., on Sunday, June 10, 2012. Firefighters on Sunday were fighting wildfires that have spread quickly in parched forests in Colorado and New Mexico, forcing hundreds of people from their homes and the evacuation of wolves from a sanctuary. The Colorado fire grew to 22 square miles within about a day of being reported and has destroyed or damaged 18 structures.

RUIDOSO, N.M. (AP) -- Residents near areas burned by New Mexico's Little Bear Fire have been dealing with a new worry this weekend -- flash flooding.
Lincoln County Emergency Services ordered residents in low-lying areas and around creeks or streams to evacuate, after the area was hit by heavy rain yesterday. As much as three-quarter of an inch fell in some spots. They have since been allowed to return to their homes.
The Little Bear Fire has destroyed 242 homes and commercial structures. It had burned 59 square miles and was 60 percent contained as of Saturday night.
A lightning strike outside the resort town of Ruidoso sparked the fire on June 4. Days later, high winds sent embers more than a mile from the blaze's end, causing the inferno to grow.

Friday, 15 February 2013
The world of politics and diplomacy is often filled with double speak and gobbledygook designed to baffle and confuse the masses into pacification, and for evidence of this we only have to look towards the recent damage control announcements made by two prominent ambassadors of the EU. As the EU retreated into damage control mode recently over the revelations of governments, and the Environment Directorate of the European Commission's, involvement and backhanded funding of green NGO's campaigns against palm oil, the European Commission's unseen hand could not be hidden despite prominent ambassador-speak.
Julian Wilson is the European Union ambassador to Indonesia and Brunei Darussalam and he was quoted as saying recently as saying that "The European Union will not restrict Indonesia's CPO export and it can continue carrying out the export of the commodity as it is today." He also went on to say that "Currently, Europe uses about 10 percent of the CPO it imports from Indonesia for biodiesel fuel,". Meanwhile Vincent Piket, who is EU ambassador and Head of Delegation to Malaysia was trying to put a spin on EU RED saying that it was all exclusively about biofuels trade.
Says Piket: "For biofuels, the EU countries will be offering incentives to promote the use of sustainably produced fuels, including biodiesel. This will increase opportunities for third countries like Malaysia to export into the EU, by tapping the potential of a new market," the envoy said.
"Other biofuels can still be imported. In order to benefit from the incentives, biofuels have to meet the criteria defined in the EU RED. Biofuels which do not comply with these criteria, can however still be imported," he said.
Palm biodiesel can be eligible for incentives, Piket said, adding that the general default value for palm oil defined in the directive is 19 per cent (savings of green-house gas emissions as compared to fossil fuels).
"This is below the 35 per cent threshold for eligibility set in the EU RED. However, this does not mean that biodiesel from palm oil cannot fulfill the criteria," he said.
"Those suppliers who can show scientific data that their biofuels have a higher greenhouse gas saving than the threshold value will be eligible.
This type of thing is seen way too often and will do little to hide what is the real driving force behind these anti-palm oil campaigns, which is to protect the EU's own indigenous edible oilseed industries such as sunflower and rapeseed oils, which are unable to compete with the hyper yielding palm oil in the open market.
Palm oil is so hyper yielding that each hectare planted with palm oil produces a staggering 4-5 metric tons of edible oil. That is almost 10 times the yield of soy and 5-7 times higher than the EU's indigenous oilseed industries of rape and sunflower oil. Frighteningly so, but that yield for palm oil is just the average. Whilst rape and sunflower have about maxed out their genetic potential, palm oil's is just beginning. Best in class plantations such as those in Sime Darby Plantations are already achieving 8 metric tons per hectare and R&D points to a genetic potential of 20 metric tons per hectare! Could this be the real reason for the EC to resort to funding these campaigns of subterfuge against palm oil? THE END

What's Working in Agency Fee Compensation
Clients are beginning to push back on agency commissions and mark-ups. This leaves agencies with only one form of compensation: fees. There's nothing wrong with fees for projects or retainers, but they limit an agency's capacity for leverage, growth and extra profits.
In the old days agencies made money in three ways: fees, commissions and mark-ups. These enabled agencies to have pretty good leverage. In contrast, it's much more difficult to make a lot of money when you have to work an hour to get paid for an hour.
The newest concept in fee billing is for agencies to offer clients a risk/reward basis for compensation. The agency offers a discount on its normal full-price billing rate to gain an ascending bonus from the client, based on performance metrics agreed upon by the agency and clients. In some cases, the agency does not have to offer the discount in order for the client to offer a bonus for performance.
Several tips:
- If your agency is offering a discount, put only your profit at risk. No base costs or out of pocket costs should be considered in the discount.
- Whatever discount you offer, negotiate a bonus of that same amount. For example, if you offer a 20% discount on your normal rates, ask for a 20% bonus over those rates.
- Make sure both parties agree to and understand the measurement methodology…and that both parties are able to track this independently.
- As your performance passes each level of achievement, make sure you can retro-activate your new hourly rate to the beginning of the deal.

The restricted isometry property meets nonlinear approximation with redundant frames
Journal of Approximation Theory 165, 1 (2013) 1--19
Abstract: It is now well known that sparse or compressible vectors can be stably recovered from their low-dimensional projection, provided the projection matrix satisfies a Restricted Isometry Property (RIP). We establish new implications of the RIP with respect to nonlinear approximation in a Hilbert space with a redundant frame. The main ingredients of our approach are: a) Jackson and Bernstein inequalities, associated to the characterization of certain approximation spaces with interpolation spaces; b) a new proof that for overcomplete frames which satisfy a Bernstein inequality, these interpolation spaces are nothing but the collection of vectors admitting a representation in the dictionary with compressible coefficients; c) the proof that the RIP implies Bernstein inequalities. As a result, we obtain that in most overcomplete random Gaussian dictionaries with fixed aspect ratio, just as in any orthonormal basis, the error of best $m$-term approximation of a vector decays at a certain rate if, and only if, the vector admits a compressible expansion in the dictionary. Yet, for mildly overcomplete dictionaries with a one-dimensional kernel, we give examples where the Bernstein inequality holds, but the same inequality fails for even the smallest perturbation of the dictionary.

I love the atmosphere in this place.
Attracts mainly a student crowd if you go there during term time but (if like me you aren't a student) then go outside of term time and find a really nice quiet and relaxed drinking hole.
Drinks offered are pretty standard. Don't go there if you want speciality beers or a range of wines ! The bar area itself has a slightly 'grungy' feel about it and this is mirrored by the laid back music always playing. You never feel rushed in this place and it's a great place to go for an afternoon drink if you want to catch up with someone. Can get quite busy in the evenings and seating is limited.

Nataliya Romanova: ''The projects conducted in the Eastern Partnership countries help consolidate local and regional democracy''
[29/09/2014 09:30:00]
Nataliya Romanova, President of the Chamber of Regions of the Congress, addressed the members of the Conference of Regional and Local Authorities for the Eastern Partnership in Tbilisi on 29 September 2014. She stressed the need to strengthen local and regional democracy through concrete actions, and explained, ''That is why the Congress has decided to launch field activities in Armenia, Azerbaijan, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine, funded by our member states and the European Union, in the framework of the Council of Europe action plans.'' These projects deal with various concerns such as leadership capacity building for local elected representatives, promotion of political dialogue and citizens' participation, young people in particular. Ms Romanova also emphasised the determination of the Congress to carry on its exchanges with CORLEAP which constitutes an ideal co-operation platform.

Meeting of the Congress Group of Independent Experts on the European Charter of Local Self-Government
[24/09/2014 17:00:00]
The Congress Group of Independent Experts on the European Charter of Local Self-Government (GIE) came together for its annual meeting on 25 and 26 September 2014 in Strasbourg. It was the first meeting under the new Chair, Prof. Angel Moreno (Spain). The participants discussed draft reports on "electoral rights of voters residing de facto abroad" and "criteria for standing for local and regional elections" . It also examined trends in regionalisation in Council of Europe member states and the situation of constitutional reform in Ukraine. Among the other items on the agenda were issues resulting from Congress' monitoring activities and the missions to observe local and regional elections.
Synergies and complementary action of Congress and EU Committee of the Regions
[25/09/2014 09:30:00]
"The Congress, and the Committee of the Regions (COR), are both working to strengthen the role of the local and regional authorities in policy-making at national and European level. Our two institutions have a key responsibility in helping these authorities to be real political European actors," stated Andreas Kiefer in his address at the CIVEX Commission's seminar on "The role of local and regional authorities in the future of Europe" organised by the EU COR on 23 September in Brindisi (Italy). Andreas Kiefer, Secretary General of the Congress, presented the specific mandate of the Congress in monitoring local and regional democracy in all 47 member states of the Council of Europe. He proposed a strengthened co-operation with the Committee of the Regions to better involve the local and regional level in the drafting and implementation of EU-policies by local and regional authorities under the political accountability of citizens. Andreas Kiefer invited CIVEX members to deepen this discussion at the up-coming joint meeting with the Congress' Governance Committee (17 November 2014), which will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Congress and the Committee of the Regions. Earlier in the seminar, the Italian Minister of Regional Affairs, Maria Carmela Lanzetta, endorsed the important role of municipalities and regions and explained the motivation of the territorial reform undertaken by the Italian government.

Unchecked Growth Is a Path to Poverty
Posted Jan 18, 2013 by William Ryerson
Endless growth is not possible because of constraints of renewable resources like fresh water, clean air and biodiversity. Also, much of our industrial system depends on nonrenewable resources like oil and various metals and minerals, which are being depleted and becoming more expensive over time.
Using the concept of the "ecological footprint," or the area of land required to support an individual for all of his or her activities, from food and fiber to waste treatment to support for energy systems, etc., the Global Footprint Network has estimated that because of population growth, humans globally consume 50 percent more resources each year than can be sustained by natural systems. This means we are eating into the natural capital that makes the planet habitable. Climate change is just one measure of this "overshoot." Maintaining an appropriate natural resource foundation for human activities, both now and in the future, is critical for the future well-being of our descendants.
The depletion of fresh water is an important example. Like China and India, the American Southwest is losing farmland because of overpumping of underground aquifers for irrigation. As the water table sinks, more and more land is turning into desert. In India, about 150 million people are being kept alive through unsustainable overpumping.
Human population numbers and economic activity must stop growing. Our goal should be sustainability, not endless growth. This means working to achieve a population size that can live comfortably within the carrying capacity of renewable resources. Continued depletion of natural resources will drive the entire world's population into poverty and deprivation.

The inserts provided that go into the spanner wrench that you use to remove the backs of waterproof watches apparently were made in China with little or no regard to tolerances. Most of the inserts would not fit, over-sized, into the holes in the wrench. I had to polish each on a lathe to make them fit. I am a tool and die maker by trade so I don't expect a precision tool set to be poorly made. The rest of the tools worked fine.
Cheap cheap cheap quality! First time I used the tool to take a pin out it snapped!
Overall it was worth the purchase. However, if I had known that the quality was still not above the rest, I might have waited for a little better set. The box that the tips come in for the watch back removal tool is very cheap plastic and has to be taped together to avoid pieces falling out. This only further describes the cheapness of the kit.
The kit was a good buy, however a set of instructions on how to use each of the tools would have been nice to have. That is the only reason I am giving it a 4 out of 5 star rating. If there had been an instruction book with the kit I would have given it a 5 star rating. I figured out how to do the repairs I needed based on google searches, but if you have never done watch repairs look into getting a book.
Just got it. Via priority mail. It's in a nice case. That's why I chose it. It has no instructions. Not sure how to go about resizing my watch in case I buy another one or I gain or lose weight.
The kit is just ok. Definitely entry level. I would recommend it with the premise of, it's only going to get you so far. If you have nicer watches, this is not the kit for you. Some of the tools are flimsy and really did not work all that well - link removers bent and broke. Also, it really could have come with some type of instructions. A complete learn as you go product.
Got this watch repair kit and I try to use it right away and it work! open my watch easily.. this will save me on battery replacement which cost $12 and up depend on my watches.. thanks Overstock.. your delivery is excellent got it in 7 days, the quality of product is good.. No instruction but easy to figure out anyway, my tip for anyone who buy this is use the black block to hold your watch tight.. adjust it with the adjuster wing nut screw and use the flat orange tool to pop open your watch.. easy do it yourself tool..
happy with product. Could use some basic instructions for the DIYer
As an avid fashion watch collector, I waited too long to order this kit! It's got everything you need to safely and effectively change routine batteries for those who collect them like me! I've got more watches than I need but I wear them to match my outfits, jewelry, etc. The time I'm now saving + the $$ for simply having a battery replaced is 10x worth the purchase! The kit also has specialized tools for any of your watch needs, such as adding or removing links, replacing pins and bands, etc. Fast and efficient shipping-thank you!
This is a good buy for anyone that has a collection of watches. Ive changed batteries for my watches and friends. Feels good to cut out the middle man and be able to get my watches working on MY time.
