This artsy rock goddess talks her new music project, guilty pleasures, and her taste in men.
Tell us about your new album JAN and what it sounds like.
It is a new project; I started it right after moving to New York from LA. In terms of the sound I think people kind of have to decide for themselves. It's hard to be objective about that type of thing. I would say people would put it in the category of post-punk, art-rock.
Who are some of your musical inspirations?
I would say I am more inspired by visual art and the city and not so much influenced by other music. I go see as much artwork as possible while I'm traveling and I feel like that informs my songwriting much more than actually listening to music.
You definitely have an artsy edge! What made you take that route instead of a "Top 40" sound?
I've always made music that sounds like me, so to speak. I have three releases with my other band, Eagle and Talon. My songwriting style was never a conscious choice; it is just the kind of music I write. Top 40 music isn't in me; it's not a part of my world.
What is your guilty pleasure?
I have a lot of guilty pleasures! I love pain au chocolat (chocolate croissants).
Do you have a celebrity crush?
Louis C.K. Balding, red-hair, overweight, that's my type!
What is your signature drink?
I like cocktails; a drink I would make would be a vodka-soda with some muddled strawberries and mint leaves or something.
What's one thing you want to do before you die?
I want to feel satisfied.
If you were on Death Row what would be the last meal you would want to eat?
Some of my mom's cooking - her experimental cooking, like borscht. My mom is Lithuanian so she makes all kinds of eastern European food.
Check out JAN, Kim's self-titled debut album as her new musical persona, out November 13th.

Chicken with Spanish Spice Paste
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 whole chicken (3 1/2 to 4 pounds), rinsed, patted dry, and cut into 8 pieces

This flavorful rub can also be used to coat pork chops or tenderloin before baking.
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sprinkle 3/4 teaspoon salt over garlic and roughly chop. Using the flat side of knife blade, crush mixture until a thick paste forms. Add to a large bowl, along with 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper, paprika, coriander, vinegar, and oil, and mix well. Add chicken pieces and toss to coat.
Step 2
Arrange chicken in a single layer, skin side up, on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and bake until skin is crisp and chicken is cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes.

This week we're taking a look at Twitter. Yesterday we gave six reasons it's a complete waste of time. Today, it's the other side of the coin: six reasons you really should be using it.
Confused? Please forgive our contradictory stance. We just wanted to show the whole argument. In case you're wondering, we already use Twitter. And we like it. Here's why:
- You get to hear news first. Twitter is ideal for getting up-to-the minute news – about whatever it is you're interested in. Most major news outlets use it, including the BBC and The Guardian, but sometimes ordinary people provide even faster coverage – like with the fire in central London earlier this year. It's great for more specific stuff too. Like going to see bands? Follow the ones you like to get the heads up on gigs first.
- It lets you stay in touch with companies you like. Aside from us (who you should go and follow right this second, if you don't already), you'll find plenty of big brands on Twitter. They use it to run competitions, communicate with customers, give a sneak preview of new products and update on service problems. Many even listen to what their customers have to say, making it a good way to ask questions.
- When you ask a question, it gets answered. People on Twitter can be very helpful. I've recently asked what laptop to buy, where to find a good cafe with Wi-Fi, and even for holiday booking tips. Every time, at least one of my followers has answered. For specific queries, it can be a great way to find someone with first hand experience – quickly. Just remember to return the favour when someone asks a question you can answer.
- You can stalk your favourite celebrities. Ever since Stephen Fry announced on the BBC that Twitter is the best thing since, like, ever (he did it in a much more articulate fashion, illustrating his point with a story about a bat), the Twitter celebrity bandwagon hasn't stopped . Particular thumbs up to the ones who bother to reply to people, rather than just broadcasting what they're up to. Here's a list of people to stalk follow.
- It can help you meet new people. Yes, actual people, face-to-face. From Tweetups to Twestivals and more informal gatherings (which probably also start with "tw-"), Twitter's a surprisingly good way to meet new people, network – or just find others with similar interests to you. (Don't be scared – as it turns out, lots of the people on Twitter are surprisingly normal.)
- It keeps you in touch with people you already know. Yes, it's an obvious one, but it's also one of the best reasons to get using Twitter. Like mobile phones, Facebook and email, Twitter is another way to stay in contact with the people that matter to you. Conversing with strangers online and meeting new people is great. But sometimes it's good to keep up with the people you know well too.
Ok, those are our reasons for using Twitter. Now here's what we want to know from you: do you use Twitter? If so, how do you use it? If not, why not? Leave a comment and let us know. We might republish some of the best ones in the future.
(If you've not yet read our six reasons Twitter is a waste of time, don't forget to check it out too.)

Chapter Thirteen4 Reviews
What would you do in six months?
Carson rolled her eyes, "I know you could do it Gabby, but you have work and Brandon and your own wedding and me to worry about so yes, we hired a wedding planner."
"I get to come dress shopping still, right?" She asked hesitantly.
Carson fought the urge to bang her head against the nearest wall, and nodded, "Of course. I just haven't decided when to do that yet."
"Your wedding is in two months, we should already have the dress!" Gabby replied. "We should go looking today!"
"Gabs, I'm not up to it," Carson sighed, glancing down at her hands, flexing the fingers. "I'm really tired from this past week. I mean, hello. I got engaged, and moved into my fiancée's mansion, where I learned that I really don't own all that much stuff. I'm exhausted, and I can't go dress shopping today." Her voice was getting increasingly louder, and she found that she couldn't (wouldn't) stop it. "I'm engaged to a rock star, who I've only known for a month. I'm twenty-five years old and I've never had sex, I really haven't gone past the stage of serious groping because I still have misguided notions of 'saving myself' for marriage, so I'm just a little stressed out and don't really want to run around trying to find the fairytale wedding dress of my fucking dreams."
Gabby looked thoughtful for a moment, and then leaned over, hugging her friend, "It's good you got that out of your system. I have to go to work; I'll talk to you later."
Carson groaned, stretching along the couch, thinking about how absolutely insane her family was. She was patiently waiting for the moment Caleb was going to burst in, demanding why he hadn't been hired for the job. Until then, she couldn't really think of a way to spend her time. She didn't really have the energy to do anything, it was the first time she truly understood what the doctors meant. She wouldn't (couldn't) be as energetic as she used to be, as she wanted to be.
Pete was supposedly in studio, but she suspected that he had other things he was doing. Mostly because he refused to answer his phone and Patrick had confessed that he hadn't been in the studio that day when she had called him. Carson wasn't really worried, though she supposed that she should be, considering her fiancée was some kind of famous rock star. She should be worrying about whether he's meeting with some gorgeous fellow celebrity, but she found she really didn't even have the energy for that. She guessed, more accurately than the suspicions she refused to have, that he was either working, or doing something for her, like he had a tendency to do.
It was almost a game, seeing who would get there first. She actually had her money on Pete, because Caleb had no sense of direction and was likely to get lost on the way. It was already five, and she didn't really know how the time had slipped past her. She had spent the day watching TV, curled up on the couch with Hemmingway in the crook of her legs. She had watched so much TV it was getting to the point where it was slightly ridiculous, but her piano wasn't being delivered for another week and it was kind of driving her crazy. She sat up as she heard the front door open; laughing internally as Pete appeared, lugging a long rectangular box.
"Okay, okay, so I know I said I'd be at the studio and I know you called and Patrick told me that he told you I wasn't at the studio but I was looking for this, because I had to make sure you had the best one possible," Pete said hurriedly, leaning against the wall.
"He really did, I think we called like fifteen places, and visited ten more," Brendon laughed, following with a smaller box.
She stood shakily, smiling, "What did you get me? I'm assuming it's something I don't really need."
Pete leaned over, kissing her lightly, "No I think you'll agree with me that you need this." He quickly opened the box, pulling out a long object, turning it to face Carson.
She tilted her head to the side, looking up at Pete, unshed tears shining in her eyes, "You didn't have to do that for me."
"Yes, I did," He answered softly, slowly unwrapping the keyboard while Brendon set up a stand for it.
She blinked away the tears, wishing she wasn't always emotional as Caleb walked into the room. She hugged Pete, whispering thanks before grabbing her brother's hand, dragging him to the kitchen. She motioned for him to sit down while she shuffled around, putting water on the stove for tea.
"I know I should be mad at you for hiring a wedding planner, when I am your brother and am completely capable of planning your wedding," He started, watching her as she carefully lowered herself into a chair. "But you look so tired. Are you doing okay?"
"It's been a busy week," She said simply. "The doctor said I'd get tired more easily… I just didn't expect it to happen so soon. I don't know, I expected I'd beat the odds or something and last longer than most."
"What exactly did your doctor say?" Caleb asked quietly, not meeting her eyes.
"Well. Technically he said I would probably be too tired to get out of bed within a month," Carson admitted, a small smile tugging at her lips.
"So you're kind of beating the odds already aren't you?"
She shrugged, "I guess you could say that."
He took hold of her hand, "And I don't want to sound too optimistic or anything, God knows I'm not trying to get my hopes up for some miraculous cure or something, but you always hear stories of people lasting longer than the doctor's prognosis. They don't live the life expectancy but… Sometimes they get a few more months."
Carson squeezed his hand, standing as the pot started whistling, "I'm just waiting it out to see what happens." There was a pause, and Carson wondered what Caleb was thinking. She poured the water into a tea pot, letting the tea leaves sit as she leaned against the counter.
"Car?" She looked at him, wondering what he was going to say next. "Are you scared?"
She closed her eyes, turning the question around in her head for a second. "I'm scared about what might happen when I leave. I'm scared about Gabby, and Pete, and if they're going to be okay. I'm not scared to die though." She poured the tea into two mugs, handing him one. "Now, come on. We have to go make sure those idiots didn't break my new keyboard already." She looped her arm in his, walking calmly into the living room despite the serious conversation they had just finished.
"We did it!" Brendon smiled proudly. "Pete and I actually managed to put something together."
"That'll show them," Pete nodded. "Everyone will finally forget the dining room set fiasco." Carson shook her head, leaving Caleb's side to lean against Pete, who automatically wrapped his arms around her. "You do like it, right?"
"I love it," She answered, taking a sip of tea, letting the warmth spread through her body. "Everything is perfect. Don't worry."
A/N- I feel like I'm on a roll. Two chapters up within two months, that's practically a new record for me. Please, please, please review, anybody review. I didn't get any on the last chatper, and it kind of (really) made me sad.

That is mostly pee.
What is it? 93%, or was that the pool?
Nah the water really looks clean in real life. Only the houses are very dirty.
all pee according to mr pi pi.
kinda wanna go there. would it be oh so sad to go w/o a girlfriend?
Must go!!!
That was the pool. The Italian guy was talking about being from there and saying it was pretty much pee.
@dA (I like this abbreviation, its like a chemical compound or something): We have made reference to the park in the south.
Haha oh, I like how you said that. Park of the South. Yeah I could be a chemical compound, I feel like I have what it takes. It really could be that it's mostly pee though. Pee can look clean and clear.
Y'see, Europe is so advanced, they had global warming centuries ahead of the rest of the world.
LMAO South Park
The water might LOOK clean, but it's the filthiest crap imaginable. When the Navy stops there, if you fall in the water, you're given shots for every disease known to mankind. Also, on days when the tides and wind are just right, the stench is overpowering.

A Flirtaceous Day5 Reviews
{A/A.} {Archie and Atlanta are so adorable!!! Don't you think?} ps. is there someone from Atlanta's hometown that's still on her mind? {New Story}
Lannie, when did you say you were coming back home again?
I don't know Aaron. I told you that. I could be staying at the Hunting Academy for years maybe even! I promise we'll see each other soon!
And how when I know when that is? Can't I visit you? Where is this place anyway?
Atlanta took an inch back away from the screen. She let out a big sigh. What could she say to him?
I'm not allowed to bring anybody there. And well I'm not allowed to leave either. Don't think of it as a prison, Aaron. I love it here.
Are you seeing someone else?!
She was surprised at that remark. She wouldn't think that anything would stop her from say no...but a sudden urge in her body held her back.
ATLANTA!? Answer! Are you seeing someone else?
long pause
Of course!
signed off
Atlanta didn't know what kept her from saying no...she was certain she wasn;'t seeing someone else...how could she anyway? She has been dating Aaron for a year...
"Ew, popcorn in the morning? Hey!!!" Atlanta frowned as Archie took the remote from her hand. He didn't reply except stuffed his face in a bowl of popcorn.
Atlanta was fuming. She put her fists on his hips ready to attack.
"Hey Jay." Herry said as Jay walked in. Jay didn't even look at him. He was hiding something it seemed.
Theresa has just came in through the other door. She too ignored Herry. Theresa nor Jay looked at each or Herry.
It was a strange silence.
Neil came into thr room and was distracted by his mirror of course, but noticed that this was usually the time where Jay and Theresa would be flirting. Trying to look at each other without the other knowing. Though, most the time they looked at each other at the same time.
Odie just came into the room. He sat beside Jay.
"Hey man, what's up? You look sweaty. Did you sleep alright?"
That made Jay's eyes widen. He just left the room.
"What's up with him?" Neil took his seat.
"Theresa, are you ok?" She faced the fridge. The boys could only see was her fiery hair. It was messy, she usually combed it before anyone seeing. And her nightgown was all...well, scrunched up.
But before those three could say a word Theresa was out of the room quicker than light.
They just shruged and grabbed their bowls of cereal and headed towards the living room.
When they entered they spotted...
Atlanta was on top of Archie reaching for teh remote. Popcorn was spilled all over the carpet and Archie was busy pushing Atlanta's hands away from him.
"Let go!"
"Back off!"
"Give me the remote!"
"That's MY remote!"
"No it's MINE!"
"I don't think so!"
"Oh ya!"
"And what on earth makes you think that!?"
But Herry just took it away from them and changed the channel.
"Hey!" The two argue stopped turned to Herry.
But they were no match for him, since well...he was the strongest (Tough as rock) and the tallest.
"No fair." The two sat pouting on the couch.
Herry chnaged it ack to the movie he was watching from last night he didn't get to finish.
It was a spy movie. When it came to a scene of a women defeating a man with kung-fu, Archie made another remark.
"Yeah right! Girls can't do that! Like come on! Beat a guy!"
"W-What! What's that suppose to mean!!!" Atlanta stood up.
It was a typical morning.
'You heard me!"
"Oh ya, say it to my face!"
"Guys...are better THAN girls."
A GIANT commotion happened between the two.
"Archie your so stupid! Why can't you be a gentleman like Aaron!"
Archie stopped. "Who's Aaron?" It was a command not a question.
"My boyfriend!"
Everyone gasped!
"ITS NOT OF YUR BUSINESS!!!" Atlanta shouted back at him.
Athena came into the room.
Upstairs you could hear slamming of their doors and the shouts and screams back at each other.

my question is about cleansing/purging/dispeliing choices for the healing classes.
i recently emailed resto4life and asked if there was a logical reason that druids could remove curses and not diseases.
a druid is a nature based healer (i have a resto druid and a friend has a holy pally and we joke that he gets his power from jesus and im just a tree hugging hell bound healing hippie) and you would think that in addition to poisons a druid would be able to heal diseases. if you needed any more evidence of such an idea, the cenarions in the old world spend much of their time cleansing both felwood and the plaguelands. a druid is inherently cenarion and the ability is something they should all take seriously.
curses are often brought on by demons and warlocks. paladins are specifically designed to fight both undead and demons, so it would be logical if they were the ones in all their abilities to fight demons if they could remove curses. now i guess im also under the impression that a pally is a class brought on by the scourge and if they came as spreaders of disease, then the paladins would have spent time to learn to cure them.
shaman are going to be able to remove poisons/curses/disease with a talent in the beta, and it seems that druids are being left in the dark with the ability to remove a disease.
as much as the question is about the ideas of why druids who have spent countless man hours removing diseases from areas of old azeroth, it's also self serving. im scared to death of arena matches where a dk, with all their diseases, will completely negate some of our viability in 2v2 and 3v3

Antique shutters brought much needed color and texture to the dining room.
Three years ago, Jane gave a tour of my Alabama Stone Cottage. Several rooms have been tweaked since then – accessories from antiquing and traveling have been added, upholstered pieces moved and artwork shifted. I've always had a thing for painted pieces, and when the paint is chipped, it's even better. I snapped up a pair of antique shutters painted a color similar to our French Gray island knowing they would be perfect in the dining room [before photo, below]. The shutters also bring out the green in the soumak rug.
The French doors, like in the rest of the house, were treated with Belgian linen curtain panels. While window treatments were not needed to block the sun, they added color, texture and softened the antique walnut furniture. After purchasing a pair of French os de mouton chairs, no matter how I arranged the two sets of chairs, it felt too hotel-like for me. So I moved one of the upholstered chairs into the dining room for what was suppose to be a temporary solution. But I liked the casualness it offered and, when needed, it's easily pulled into great room for extra seating. I have gone back and forth on whether or not to reupholster the dining room chairs. The pattern and colors go well with the rug, but it feels a tad old fashioned. I've finally decided to leave as is, since Mr Shops keeps talking about building another house, and while I love the walnut pieces, I will most likely trade for a more rustic, less formal table. But the painted shutters will be moving with us.

If the trader thinks the market will move up in the next 30 minutes, he will buy a call option with expiry of 30 minutes and if he thinks the market will move down in the next 30 minutes, he will buy a put option with expiry 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, either he makes a return of 70-80% or lose his investment.

Every month, for about a week, millions of women cope with debilitating menstrual cramps. Whenever they strike, most of us reach for NSAIDs, maybe some caffeine, and sometimes a heating pad -- rinse, repeat. But that routine can get old, sometimes it doesn't even help, and who knows what kind of toll it might be taking on your long-term well-being? Plus, wouldn't it be so much better to preempt the cramps before they begin?
Enter a new, small study from Italy, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, that found a single, high-dose (300,000 IU -- whoa!) of cholecalciferol -- aka vitamin D3 -- was linked to a marked reduction in menstrual cramps. (In two months, the average pain scores dropped 41 percent for women on vitamin D vs. no difference in pain for a placebo group.) Also interesting: All the women in the study had blood levels of vitamin D measuring in the lowest 25 percent of normal at the study's outset. A clue, perhaps?
Perhaps there's a major link between vitamin D deficiency and dreadful cramps!
Of course, the answer to that Q remains to be seen, because the research just isn't there yet. In the meantime, though, this study is already being blown off by experts who are saying it's fab that the high-dose worked, but women shouldn't be taking that much vitamin D. (But hormone-wrecking birth control pills and gut-destroying pain meds are just fiiiine! Stick with those, ladies! Ugh.)
The truth is that no one really knows if 300,000 IU of vitamin D is dangerous for a woman of reproductive age -- even one who is deficient in D. However, it bears noting that the "recommended" dose of 600 IU can be entirely too low -- especially for a woman who is deficient. I speak from personal experience, having recently learned that I'm deficient. My doc suggested 5,000 IU minimum. But my boyfriend who was found to be "severely" deficient was prescribed special high-dose 50,000 IU vitamin D! So clearly, higher doses can be acceptable -- and potentially very helpful.
Sounds like the real takeaway here is two-fold: That women with awful cramps should check their vitamin D stores and consider supplementation, and that natural, nutrition-based, preventative ways that promote wellness. We should and can use real food, vitamins, herbs, etc. to preempt cramps. Even if vitamin D isn't the answer for every woman, there are lots of other natural options -- like evening primrose oil (essential fatty acids promote the production of the prostaglandins that help the uterus contract without causing cramping), turmeric (a natural anti-inflammatory), vitamin B-6, and other hormone-balancing minerals like calcium and magnesium. Because we shouldn't be waiting until we're writhing in discomfort or being left to believe a bottle of over-the-counter drugs is our only option.
Do you suffer from bad menstrual cramps? Do you think a natural remedy could help?
I get severe cramps for which I have to take 8-10 advil's to get any relief. Apparently my doctor thinks that's better than prescribing anything stronger for me except Celebrex - which did nothing and has terrible health risks. I've had to leave work on a few ocassions for fear of throwing up on or pooping my pants at my desk the pain is so bad. Hot baths do help but again you can't have those at work.
MAGNESIUM. Take it daily and you will be amazed with the results
Great article and study, but unlike scientific studies like this, few things exist in a vacuum. I think upping your antioxidents (and avoiding sugar, etc.) can help with your natural vit D absorbsion and I truly believe that infertility and severely painful uterine disorders can be managed or even healed and reversed by diet and nutrition.

March 19th in North America Predicts Earthquake !

Jim Berkland Predicts A Major Earthquake on March 19th in North America Imminent
Jim Berkland Predicts A Major Earthquake on March 19th in North America Imminent
Earthquake forcaster Jim Berkland warns of a 'high risk' seismic window and potential for a massive quake poised to strike somewhere in North America in between the dates of March 19th and 26th.
Berkland was famous for predicting the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in San Francisco (also known as the Quake of '89 and the World Series Earthquake).
Will March 19 Supermoon trigger natural disasters?
On March 19, the moon will swing around Earth more closely than it has in the past 18 years, lighting up the night sky from just 221,567 miles (356,577 kilometers) away. On top of that, it will be full. Richard Nolle, a noted astrologer believes it could inflict massive damage on the planet.
When the moon goes super-extreme, Nolle says, chaos will ensue: Huge storms, earthquakes, volcanoes and other natural disasters can be expected to wreak havoc on Earth. (It should be noted that astrology is not a real science, but merely makes connections between astronomical and mystical events.) Read full article HERE

He left out the 2010 7.2 Baja quake to make his prediction seem more plausible.

LOL true...I get the feeling the rest of the world ignores Americans(and I am an American.)
Bugstomper March 18, 2011 1:24:52 AM CET
2:44 The 'fish kill', were sardines that swam into an enclosed harbour at Redondo beach, and used up all the oxygen in the water, thereby suffocating. What does that have to do with earthquakes? The change in the magnetic field, even if the poles reverse will happen over 1000yrs, not suddenly. As for the S A fault, the 'Big One' will happen within the next 30 years. It could happen tomorrow, or thirty years from now. This is according to the USGS, not some renegade crackpot. The reason the USGS says 'up to 30 years from now' is because predicting earthquakes is not an exact science. The tension is building up in the S A fault, and up thirty years from now, the tension will be so much, it will have to give. Estimates are everything moving 53' within half a second. Now do you know why they tell you to velcro your loose stuff, like your HDTV?
Akgreeck March 17, 2011 9:44:01 PM CET
Please you gays.yes it will happen not for sour in north but again look the shoho move theatre and look the blast of the sun 2011-3-17 and at 00.12h big blast in 2 days this magnetic hits the earth and some wear it cause a big earthquake like the other ones us we saw .check the sun .its for real !!!!!!!!!!

Paranormallover March 17, 2011 12:24:40 PM CET
i am scared
Dukettt March 17, 2011 8:47:17 AM CET
I think that with earthquakes it is the earlier the better. So IF these quakes have a pattern and it should quake on around 19th then lets hope it does but not too much. Then if it do not quake then it means it is still gathering momentum and pressure between the plates is intensifying. The more the energy deposited between the plates the more violent the quake. Lets hope it will be 5.0 on 19th rather that 9.4 few years after....

The Drive For Higher Yields
Hussain is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
The year 2012 saw high growth in commodity prices, with some commodities surpassing the highs achieved in the 1970's. This price hike was due to a number of factors, including high input cost, rapid demand growth, slow growth in production and the drought in the US and certain areas of Europe. As per OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook, the growth in agricultural production is expected to slowdown in the upcoming decade. Given the high growth in demand, the prices of almost all the agricultural commodities are expected to remain at high levels. This will attract more investment in the agriculture sector and in technologies and products that will help in enhancing the crop production.
In the light of these expectations, the future outlook of the fertilizer industry looks very promising. Fertilizers can provide a lot of improvements in crop yields, especially in the developing countries. In the fertilizer sector, Potash of Saskatchewan (NYSE: POT), Mosaic (NYSE: MOS) and Agrium (NYSE: AGU) are the three major competitors, offering almost similar products.
The drought of 2012
There was a shortfall in the agricultural output in 2012, mainly due to the drought in the US and some parts of Europe. The shortfall was seen in almost all the major crops, including corn and rice. This shortfall negatively affected the results of fertilizer companies, especially those operating in the US and CIS markets.
Potash is the leading producer of fertilizer, in terms of capacity, with specific expertise in the production of potash. The company primarily operates in North America and thus, experienced a decline in revenues by more than 9% in 2012, as compared to an average annual growth of more than 48% over the preceding 2 years.
The drop in sales led to a decline in the company's net margin to 27% in 2012, as compared to 35% in 2011. The decline in the earnings of the company was primarily due to the sharp decline in the sales of potash during the year, which is the company's higher margin yielding product.
Mosaic is the largest producer of phosphate and fourth largest producer of potash in the world. Phosphate contributes around 65% to the company's net sales, but has a lower share in the company's operating earnings. Potash contributed 62% to the company's operating earnings for fiscal year 2013.
In 2013, the company's revenue decreased by 10.2%, while its net income only dropped by slightly more than 2%. Sales declined due to the fall in the selling price of both potash and phosphate, while the improvement in net margin can be attributed to greater sales volume of potash.
Although Agrium is also involved in the production and sale of other products through its retail channel, the sale of fertilizers made up to 71% of the company's total revenue in 2012. Unlike its peers, the company primarily produces and sells nitrogen, followed by potash and phosphate. Nitrogen sales accounted for almost 42% of the company's wholesale revenues in fiscal year 2012.
Along with other fertilizer producers, Agrium also experienced a decline in the demand for potash and phosphate and an increase in the demand for nitrogen. The higher sale of nitrogen more than offset the decline in sales of potash and phosphate. Revenue increased by around 7.8%, while the company's margins saw a slight increase of 9 basis points, due to the lower sales of potash and an increase in nitrogen prices.
The global demand is expected to accelerate
As per the USDA's estimates, the total production in 2013 could increase by as much as 8.3% due to the added pressure to meet the growing demand. Despite the expected rebound in agricultural production, the US spring season saw a delay due to the wet/cool conditions. This resulted in lower corn plantation.
This means that although production in the US market is expected to improve from last year, the actual growth in production will fall short of estimates. This will result in lower than expected fertilizer consumption in the first half of this year. However, the expected growth in plantation and fertilizer consumption is still positive for the second half of the current year. Thus, I still expect all the companies to perform better as compared to the previous year.
In the future, demand for potash is expected to grow at the fastest pace (3.5%), followed by phosphate (2.7%) and nitrogen (1.3%). Due to the higher margins for potash, the companies are shifting their focus towards potash.
Out of the three companies discussed, Potash has the largest percentage of revenue coming from this fertilizer, followed by Mosaic and Agrium. The long term growth in the demand for potash and other fertilizers is expected to come from India and China. In this regard, Agrium falls behind its peers as its major market outside of North America is Europe. As for the remaining two companies, it is Latin America and Asia.
Thus, based on my analysis and the companies' respective market presence in various continents, I would give a buy recommendation for Potash and Mosaic. Among these two companies, I believe Potash to be a better choice for investment, as its product mix and the end markets targeted provide a higher potential for gains.

Ted Haggard's 'Resurrection Story'
The disgraced preacher, to be featured in TLC documentary, still mugging for the camera
Ted Haggard, whose fall into disgrace was one of the biggest news stories in evangelicalism in the last several years, is the focal point of a new documentary, Ted Haggard: Scandalous, premiering Sunday night on The Learning Channel (click here for listings).Colorado Springs Gazette. "I hope it encourages people to realize that no matter what you are going through, the sun will come up again."
Haggard, former leader of the National Association of Evangelicals and a once-respected pastor, was caught in late 2006 after having a sexual encounter with a male prostitute and later revealing that he had been using crystal meth. Haggard, wife Gayle (author of Why I Stayed) and their five children have since been trying to rebuild their lives.
In a press release, TLC claims to "go inside their new world" where the Haggards are "launching a new ministry unlike any other church ever seen. The eye-opening special will the expose and follow the fascinating, compelling, emotional and controversial journey from the day Haggard announced the opening of his new ministry - St. James Church - located in Colorado Springs, the town he had been kicked out of once his double life was uncovered."
"My family and I endured the darkest hours imaginable in the public spotlight, and have spent the last four years fighting and struggling to rebuild our lives, our faith and our family," Haggard told. "Showing the world the new chapter of our lives will hopefully inspire others to find their own path to overcome their struggles and embrace the power of acceptance. The church is open to all, even those who have committed the darkest sins."
It's the second cable documentary starring Haggard. HBO aired The Trials of Ted Haggard two years ago this month.
I frankly wish that Mr. Haggard would stay out of the limelight and go on with his life minus any cameras.
I think this is the way the "religous folk" treat people. Ted made a HUGE mistake in his life. Frankly, if we were all honest and open, we all make mistakes at or worse than his day to day or year to year. Ted has learned through his personal trial that even his judging of others in the past wasnt what God wanted of him. God wanted him to be his servant vs a human judge. Now that Ted has learned that, I support him 100%.
I hope he reads this... Ted, your family has been strong and your wife is a blessing to you and an example of 'steadfastness to values' -- she is an inspiration to me and to my entire family. If you ever get to Washington DC. Shoot me an email and stop in for dinner!!! Dont you Dare quit!!!
I too would like for Taggard to remove himself from the public scene. Not because of his sins - not mistakes, Carl - but because the negative fall out was magnified by his being a very public (and outspoken)figure. Millions had been exposed to Taggard and as a result, his fall, has put a stumbling block before millions. Thanks to Taggard, it has become so much easier to dismiss the message of the Gospel.
There is something very unsettling to see that a man in his situation would apparently be willing to have the public spotlight trained on him once again.
Oh, Carl, it's because of the gullibility of believers like you that spawn people like Ted.
There is no doubt that Ted, who is a very cunning person, began to plan his comeback almost immediately after he was exposed (ewww). A person who is truly humble would react the way Peter did upon his denial of Christ. Peter was so broken that he had to receive a special message from Christ in order for him to come out of hiding. Peter was a broken man.
Ted, on the other hand, was a man angry that his empire was broken. Ted's incessant need to be in front of a camera shows me that he hasn't learned any lesson except how to manipulate the process to his gain.
No, Ted knows exactly what he is doing...we just need to ignore him. Then maybe, just maybe he'll go away and learn what it means to be called by Christ.

Life with Braces
The Care and Feeding of Your New Friends: Your Braces
Congratulations on your first step to a Spectacular Smile!
Dr. Clark and his team are happy to work with you to achieve the ultimate goal of a spectacular smile with healthy, straight teeth. Now that you have braces, proper brushing will take some extra time and effort. When your braces come off, you want your teeth to look their best, so start today to be your smile's best friend. It is very important to keep your teeth and braces spotlessly clean. Brushing after meals is crucial! If you cannot brush right away, be sure to at least rinse well with water until you can brush. It is always a good idea to carry a travel toothbrush when away from home. Here are the new steps to brushing your teeth with braces:
- Brush the front and back of all your teeth holding the toothbrush flat on your teeth and braces using small circular motions.
- To brush above the brackets and underneath the wire, hold the toothbrush at an angle. Make sure the bristles of your toothbrush touch your teeth. Don't forget to gently brush your gums too! Using small circles will let the bristles work their way under the wires.
- Brush the biting surface of all your teeth using the same brushing motion.
- Look closely in the mirror to be sure all your teeth and wires sparkle.
If you leave plaque and food on your teeth and around your braces it can cause swollen gums, bad breath, permanent marks on your teeth and cavities.
* * * Remember - brushing your teeth and appliances should take AT LEAST two minutes and should be done three times a day or more.
Flossing daily helps get rid of bits of food that your toothbrush can't reach. This helps keep your gums healthy and prevents tooth decay. There are many varieties of floss - use whatever works best for you. We know flossing with braces can be time-consuming but once you get the hang of it, it will be a piece of cake! We would like for you to floss every day, but no less than three times a week. We have provided you with a sample pack of Floss Threaders to assist you in making flossing easier with your braces. If you run out of Floss Threaders, they can be purchased at most drug stores. Here are some simple steps for using your floss threaders:
- Get out a Floss Threader and a string of floss. Thread the floss though the threader like "needle and thread."
- Take the pointed end of the threader and feed it underneath your wire. It is best to aim away from your gums.
- After the threader has been fed underneath the wire, hold one end of the floss and pull the threader out.
- Now the floss is underneath the wire and you can floss this area normally.
- Pull the floss straight out, and go to the next area.
- Repeat all these steps until you have flossed between all of your teeth.
* * * Please note that you cannot move from tooth to tooth without removing the floss and re-feeding it through the next section of the wire because the brackets will be in your way.
The Proxabrush is used to aid in removing plaque & food that may be underneath your wires and around the brackets. When using the Proxabrush it is also recommended to point away from the gums. Toothpaste or water is not needed when using the Proxabrush. The Proxabrush may be used as needed.
The fluoride gel helps to prevent cavities. It is to be used after brushing and flossing only one time a day before bed. Here is how the gel should be used:
- After brushing your teeth with your regular toothpaste, shake the excess water off your toothbrush (or use a separate, dry toothbrush) and apply a few drops of fluoride gel to the brush.
- Brush all your teeth, front and back, coating your teeth thoroughly with the gel. Swish with the gel in your mouth for 30 seconds then spit out the excess. After a minute you can rinse briefly.
- When you're finished, off to bed you go.
* * * When you run out of Fluoride gel, be sure to let us know, so we can provide you with more.
The wax is used for sores you may get while getting used to your braces. Remember it will take some time for your lips and cheeks to get adjusted to your braces, so it would not be a good idea to cover your braces with excessive wax right after you get your braces on. The wax acts as a "Band Aid" if a bracket or wire is rubbing your cheek or lip the wrong way. To apply the wax, take a small piece (about the size of a pea), ball it up in your fingertips and place it on the problem bracket or wire. If the sore does not heal within a few days or pain persists call us and we can schedule you to take care of the problem.
Food Do's and Don'ts
Eating the right food plays a major role in the success of your orthodontic treatment. If a brace comes loose from a tooth, then that tooth is 'out of control', and it may require extra work (and extra time!) to fix it. We don't want you to wear braces any longer than necessary, so please do what you can to keep your braces on your teeth!
Don't eat foods that are hard, sticky, crunchy, or chewy. Avoid candy, gum, nuts, hard chips and popcorn. For foods that you would normally bite into with your front teeth, you should cut or break it into small pieces and chew on your back teeth. Eating these foods can cause the brackets to become loose or broken. Keep foreign objects out of your mouth such as pens, pencils, and fingernails because these can also cause breakage. If you have excessive breakage, it will prolong your treatment time. Dr. Clark and his team want to work with you to get to that spectacular smile we are all looking for as soon as possible, so let's do what we can to take care of your braces properly.
We have given you a No-No List of foods that can be a problem, and you might want to put it on your refrigerator with the magnet we have also given you. We can't list all the foods that might be a problem, but you're smart, and you get the idea!
Incentive Program
Dr. Clark and his team try very hard to create your spectacular smile. We need your help too! We want to reward you for doing your part. We have an incentive program to help:
We have a report card/wooden nickel program that allows you to collect coins and turn them in for prizes. This report card lets you know everything we did to your braces at your appointment and how you're doing on your brushing. The wooden nickels can be turned in at any time during treatment for the prizes you can see in the cabinet next to the reception desk area.
Being a good patient and doing everything you're supposed to do can really pay off in the end: your braces are off, you have a spectacular smile, and you can earn prizes!
What to Expect After You Get Your Braces On
The night of or day after getting your braces on it is likely that your teeth will be sore. Everyone is a little different in how much soreness they experience. Teeth will feel tender and soft foods are going to be your main preference. You may need to take some form of pain reliever (such as aspirin, acetaminophen (Tylenol®) or ibuprofen (Motrin®, Advil®) or naproxen (Aleve®) to ease discomfort. Ibuprofen has been shown to be the most effective for dental pain. Aleve has the advantage of working for a long time – school kids can take it before going to school and it should last through the school day – less need to involve the school nurse. Feel free to call us if you have any questions or concerns. Any of our team members will be happy to assist you with any needs you may have.
If something becomes loose or broken, or just doesn't feel 'right', please call us. If it's an evening, a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, and you are in pain, please call the office (850) 385-2822. Someone will always be on call, and the recording at the office will tell you whom to contact. If you are not in pain, you can usually wait until normal business hours Monday - Thursday to call us.

De Veranez, Addiebelle R. Addiebelle Rachel Jackson was born on August 24, 1926 in Hot Springs, Arkansas to her devoted parents, Jesse and Sarah Jackson. In Hot Springs, Jesse and Sarah owned/operated a restaurant/café where, as a young woman, Addiebelle learned the virtues of hard work, good cooking, and providing great customer service. Addiebelle graduated from Langston High School in Hot Springs, where she was class valedictorian and later attended Talladega College, where she pledged Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority's Chi Chapter in 1946. After her sophomore year she transferred to Fisk University, where she graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology in 1948. After graduating from Fisk, Addiebelle traveled to Chicago to work for the summer. In Chicago she stayed with her godparents, Henry Wadsworth McGee and his wife Addiebelle (for whom Addiebelle Jackson was named). Later Henry Wadsworth McGee would become the first black Postmaster of Chicago in 1966. In Chicago, Addiebelle's older brother, World War II Army veteran John S. Jackson, introduced her to his close Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity brother, Esteban De Veranez. That initial meeting resulted in a one year courtship that culminated in their wedding on June 19, 1949. Their exemplary, loving, and romantic relationship lasted for 61 years until Esteban's death in August 2010. Addiebelle and Esteban joined the Church of the Good Shepherd where their children were baptized, and they remained dedicated parishioners for many years. Later, they extended the ministry of the Congregational Church by becoming founding members of Trinity United Church of Christ in their local south-side community. Several years later they returned to the Church of the Good Shepherd where Addiebelle served with the Moentitas Club (Money, Energy, Time, and Talent) and Esteban was a Trustee and member of the Men's Club. They continued to be great supporters for over 30 years. A memorable moment for their family and congregation was the renewal of their marriage vows on their 50th wedding anniversary in June 1999. A dedicated lifelong learner and educator, Mrs. De Veranez continued her educational pursuits by receiving aMaster's Degree in Education in December 1983. Mrs. De Veranez was a beloved teacher, spending most of her 30+ year teaching career at Rudyard Kipling Elementary School on Chicago's south-side. She was cherished by her community and colleagues for promoting and exemplifying the value of education and giving back to the community. She positively influenced the lives of thousands of children during her 33 year teaching career. Esteban and Addiebelle were a philanthropic couple, generous with their time, energy and resources, supporting many organizations, universities and causes. Over the years, they enjoyed an active social life and traveled to numerous destinations around the U.S. and abroad while also taking 16 cruises. Their home was filled with music, art, memorabilia and family photographs, and all the indicators of a loving, joyful and fulfilling life together. Addiebelle was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, aunt, teacher, neighbor and friend. She will be dearly missed by so many. Addiebelle R. De Veranez was preceded in death by her husband Esteban S. De Veranez, father Jesse Jackson, mother Sarah Shenoy Jackson, brother John S. Jackson, father-in-law Esteban Veranes, mother-in-law Frances Massie De Veranez, and sister-in-law Petrafae De Veranez-Cambre.She is survived by her son Steven, daughter Denise, and son-in-law Michael A.M.

I agree. Maynor is a good acqusition that may spell relief to the starters so they can finish in a flurry. Now if we just get another player who can spark a top of the game spark run to go with the strong finishing efforts that would be nice.

Joel is a good, reliable backup, but he didn't light too many fires last season when he came back. But he does so many little things that aren't always obvious even if he doesn't light up the scoreboard. If the Blazers sign Hibbets, and another big free agent player, then they may be le...

Minnesota Timberwolves are offering him a two-year contract. They originally drafted him. They are the first team to offer him a contract, although LA is said to be interested also.

Would you sign Phil if he said he was interested in coaching the Blazers?

Founder J. Lohr has a special interest in pinot noir, and grows several hundred acres of the grape in the Arroyo Seco region of Monterey County. This unique wine is 76 percent pinot noir (primarily Dijon clones) and 24 percent Valdiguié, a red wine grape that pairs beautifully with pinot noir. Ninety percent of it is aged in stainless steel and 10 percent in neutral French oak barrels. This pinot has lovely aromas of dark berries, rose petals, and exotic spices that retain interest over time in the glass, leading to delicious and entirely seductive flavors of dark cherry and berry, with complimentary notes of spice and anise. The wine is soft in the mouth, with mild tannins, commendable balance, and very respectable finishing intensity. Pinot noir purists may scoff, but the addition of Valdiguié is what gives it a very interesting flavor profile. A lower alcohol level (13.6 percent) adds to the appeal. Pair it with duck confit or rack of lamb. A superlative value at $17, you can find it at Hi-Time Wine Cellars; Liquor Warehouse, 9092 Adams Ave., Huntington Beach, 714-965-6000; and Laguna Wine, Coffee and Specialty Foods. It's also served at multiple O.C. restaurants, such as Pizza Lounge and SeaLegs Wine Bar, both in Huntington Beach, and Summit House Restaurant in Fullerton.

Highlight of early part of stress test
(Click picture icon to see the gif)
The bush/grass that move were spazzing out. They're probably excited that release is less than 10 days away. I think it was fixed after their patch… not sure as I spent the rest of the time in character creation XD

Chapter 200 Reviews
The Stupid Boy and the Outsider Chapter 20
I've been walking around with mixed feelings. That talk I heard between Nick and Jackie did that. It actually sounded like she was defending me. Half of me felt sorry for her while the other half thought that she was just keeping up an act.
Jackie didn't come to school yesterday and that just got me more upset. Kristine had no problem taking advantage of Jackie not being here. She told everyone she knew about Jackie going to therapy and her mom committing suicide. This news spread like wildfire, but everyone mainly concentrated on how Kristine made it look like Jackie was a slut. It wasn't that hard. A having two guys defending her, a few assumptions, and there you have it.
Berna wasn't too happy about that and she didn't exactly help me with my crappy mood either.
"Jonas you f-ck!" Berna said on Tuesday. "Who gave you the right to tell Jackie's business about her counseling? And why are you letting your girlfriend talk sh!t about her? You know all that stuff about her having sex isn't true."
My bad mood caused me to get defensive immediately. "Well you know what Rada? I don't go with Jackie to her therapy sessions, so I wouldn't know. Kristine was right, once aweek is a little too much, don't you think?"
"You were always a jerk. Idon't know why Jackie started hanging out with you," she said with a disgusted look on her face. "And why'd you tell her that Jackie's mom committed suicide? You don't know that, no one knows what happened to her mom."
"I know. Jackie, herself, showed me the suicide letter."
"Well then, you better hope the saying 'like mother, like daughter' doesn't apply here because if I lose my best friend Kevin, Nick, and Frankie are gonna lose a brother." I could see the hate in her eyes mixed with some tears before she walked away.
--- --- --- ---
It was now Wednesday and Jackie wasn't here again. She's never been absent for two days in a row, ever. I was starting to get worried. Man, were my feelings all messed up. I'm not sure what to think anymore. Once I think I know what I should be feeling I switch and feel the complete opposite.
I was now in the hallway waiting for Kristine to finish her audition. It didn't take very long for her to finish, thank goodness. Every time I'm left alone long enough I start to think about Jackie and I didn't want that. I wanted some kind of distraction from thinking about her.
"I think she likes me," Kristine said when she walked out of the music room. I guess she was talking about the lady holding the auditions.
"Great," was all I said before heading to the cafe.
I guess it didn't sound like I meant it because Kristine stepped in front of me and said, "What's wrong with you now?"
"There's nothing wrong with me," I tried to sweep past her, but she just took a side step to block me.
"Is this about Jackie? I thought you two were fighting or something."
"I'm so tired of people talking about Jackie!" I yelled causing everyone to look at us.
"Okay find, just calm down,"she said looking a little embarrassed. "If that's not the problem, then what is?"
I took a deep breath and said, "There's a lot going on. I... can't be with you anymore. I can't handle everything and a girlfriend right now. I'll see you around." I left before she could say anything and just walked to my next class.
I guess that was pretty rude, but I really couldn't take it anymore. It was a last minute decision, but I realized I needed to break if off with Kristine.
I spent the rest of the day avoiding everyone, just thinking about how all this happened... even though that was what I was trying not to do for most of the day.
Why was I mad at Jackie in the first place? When did I start getting mad at her? I couldn't remember.
We've been home for a while now. I was just sitting on my bed thinking when Kevin started putting his books away. I guess he was done with his homework.
"You finished?" I asked.
"Yeah," Kevin said like it was none of my business. He was still mad at me.
"Nick!" I yelled. Kevin just rolled his eyes.
"Yeah?" Nick said when he walked into the room He was still mad at me too, but he didn't show it like Kevin did.
"You wrote a new song." It wasn't a question. He just nodded. "Let's practice," I said.
Nick looked over at Kevin who just nodded at him. Nick stepped out of the room to get his notebook and guitar. We practiced for about half an hour before heading down for dinner, then practicing some more.
"That was great," Nick said when we'd finally gotten through the whole song without any problems.
"Yeah," Kevin agreed. "I wonder who it's about," he said sarcastically.
"What? She's practically family and her balcony's right outside my window," Nick said.
There was an awkward silence. I guess they knew Jackie was still a soar subject with me.
"Have you seen Jackie?" I asked. Kevin and Nick just shook their head.
"She's just sick or something," Nick said.
"How do you know that?" Kevin asked.
"I heard mom and dad talking." There was a small pause before Nick added, "They also said we're not going on that school tour. They cancelled it."
Kevin and Nick looked at me. We all knew I was the reason for that.
"Sorry guys," I said.
"Hey bro, it's okay. There'll be another tour," Kevin said giving me a pat on the back. I just nodded my head knowing and hoping that was true.
"I broke up with Kristine today," I said out of nowhere.
"It's about time," Kevin said getting Nick and me to chuckle a little bit.
"Yeah, I guess she was pretty annoying."
Kevin and Nick looked at each other before turning to me and saying, "We know." Everything seemed to go back to normal after that.
I looked out the window to see the sun was about to set. I suddenly got inspired.
Without looking away from the window I asked, "You guys wanna climb a trellis?" Nick and Kevin looked at each other with a questioning look on their faces. "Come on, bring the guitars," I said before grabbing my tambourine and Nick's notebook and headed out the door.
"Are you sure this is safe?" Kevin asked while we were standing in the Mathews' backyard.
"Yeah, I do it all the time... or at least I used to," I said as an after thought.
"With guitars?" Nick asked holding up the guitar in his hand.
I stood there thinking for alittle bit. "Okay," I said getting an idea. "I'll climb up onto the balcony, Kevin can hang on the trellis, then Nick; you will hand the guitar to Kevin, who'll hand it to me." Oh yeah I can be pretty smart.
"Well, if that's what we're doing I think Nick should be on the balcony and you on the ground," Kevin said."No offense Joe, but I don't trust you with the guitars up there."
Nick laughed as he climbed up the trellis. It took us about five minutes to get up there quietly with the guitars. I looked through the sliding glass doors to see if Jackie was in there. I guess we should have got Nick to check first, just in case.
We got ourselves set and Nick counted us off.
She's an underdog
Lives next door to me
She's always heard you won't amount to anything
And it kills me to watch the agony beyond her eyes
Tragic the way people pass her by
But now I realize
That everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she takes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
I saw something moving inside before I saw Jackie walking towards the sliding glass doors.
She's original
Never trying to fit in
She's got a way to always go
Against the grain
Oh yea!
Someday they'll see how beautiful she really is
I know that last will be the first
The tables gonna turn cause
She stepped outside and sat down in a nearby chair and just watched us.
That everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she fakes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Maybe she'll be in a movie
Maybe she'll be in a song
Better pay her some attention
Before she's gone
She's an underdog
She means the world to me
Everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
Everyone sees her
But nobody knows her
She screams in her pillow
For a better tomorrow
She hates it
But she makes it
Watch out for that girl
One day she may change the world
