I hate to review a recipe that I've made changes to, but I altered this recipe for a party and they were a huge hit! I used fresh mushrooms and cooked them down with salt, pepper, red pepper flake, garlic, and green onions. I let them cool and mixed with the cream cheese and parm. I then added some Swiss cheese I had in the fridge before I folded the pastry over. Just delicious. Everyone was asking how to make them.

You know how dogs tilt their head when you say something to them that they must not understand? That's the reaction I invariably get when I tell people I enjoy cruising. "But, isn't it boring?" they ask. The next question is "How do you cope being cooped up on the ship?" or "That's for old people, isn't it?".
I didn't decide to cruise. I decided I wanted to see the Inside Passage, and the best way to do that was on an Alaskan cruise. I had no idea what to expect, but after that 7 days, I was hooked. It is difficult to understand the attraction…obsession…addiction of cruising until you give yourself over to the experience.
I've now been on three cruises, and am planning our fourth, so yes, I do cruise and I love it. My cruising site, where I keep trip journals and photos, is one sign of my addiction. Another sign is that I want to give advice on how to cruise, and here are my top five tips for planning a cruise experience.
1. Accept how old you are, and decide what sort of people you want to mingle with on the cruise. I didn't want to cruise with people in their 70s and 80s, but I didn't want to cruise with 20 year olds either – sadly, I can't party any more as my brain complains too much for me to deal with now. Do your research online on the cruise lines, and find one that looks as though it will match your needs – contrary to popular opinion, cruises aren't only for newly weds and the almost dead! I have only cruised on Celebrity Cruises, but there are many lines, each of which is slightly different in focus, so there's one designed for you.
2. Connect with experienced cruisers, though do this selectively. The biggest online forum is Cruise Critic, where you can lurk to your heart's content and find out every piece of information you want from cruisers, or you can contribute, make connections and meet up in real life to share excursions and travel arrangements.
Online research gets you more accurate and timely information, but there is so much of it, you will need to learn good information filtering techniques to stay sane, and you will need to quickly learn who of your online buddies is making sense, and who are just a little odd! CruiseMates is another online forum worth checking out, with good reviews and articles. Don't bother buying speciality books about cruising, as they seem to be out of date once they are published – save your book buying for guide books about destinations.
3. If you can possibly afford it without mortgaging the house again, get a veranda stateroom/cabin. The image that drew me to cruising was of me sitting on the veranda, reading a book, watching the sea ripple by, feeling a gentle breeze and just being there in the moment. That moment has happened on every cruise so far.
4. Choose a large table with 8 or 10 people if you have fixed seating dinner. For me, part of travel is meeting new people, and your tablemates will usually provide great conversation. It's easy to change tables if you decide to, or to eat somewhere else – food on ships is available 24/7 and you will never go hungry. You will probably put on weight as a result, so a regular exercise routine (walking or the gym) on the ship is definitely required.
5. Surrender yourself to the experience as soon as you walk up the gangway to the ship. For me, that's the point where I leave my reality behind and I move to travel mode (except for the phonecalls from children of course!). You can do nothing except sleep and eat and do tours, or you can be completely occupied until you are exhausted. You can be alone on a ship of 2000 people (yes, really), or you can be with people all the time – that choice is up to you.
I knew nothing about cruising until I decided I wanted to go to the Inside Passage, and I've since discovered that there is a whole cruising world out there waiting to be tapped but hidden unless you consciously decide to go there. And, my last piece of advice, go there when you are planning your next trip and I think you will be pleasantly surprised!
Two travel publicationsfor this sort of article (three more to come) are:
- Cruise Mates: Paul Motter, Editor in Chief, email@example.com – I've already got a similar piece published on Cruise Mates, but I've learned a lot more since then, and will maybe submit this piece as an update, and
- The Age newspaper: my local newspaper here in Melbourne, Australia.

Mrs Lythgo
This cottage was named for Sarah, wife of William Lythgo. After William was transported, Sarah worked "around the town" to support herself. Eventually she was convicted for pick-pocketing and transported to Australia, where she was eventually re-united with her husband.
They lived together in Lythgo's Row and had seven children. Sadly, five of the children did not survive infancy and they are buried, with their parents in the cemetery of St Mark's Anglican Church in Pontville. The surviving children married free settlers and descendants still live in the area.
This is the most romantic of the cottages and is popular with honeymooners or couples having anniversaries – or just wanting romantic time out. (View the Gallery)
Riverain was one of the many names the building has had over the years. It is Welch for "house by the river". The property's southern border runs along the Jordan River. The name was given to the complex by some elderly spinsters who owned the complex in the 1970's. The ran it as tea rooms and they were responsible for the myth that the cottages had been built as an army barracks. They were convincing as they had a ceremony with the army and the local mayor – complete with parade and band – to unveil a plaque over the front door of the house proclaiming it as being built as an army barracks. The building later became known as The Barracks for this reason. It was later discovered that Lythgo had built the cottages in 1852 as workers' cottages and the name was changed to Lythgo's Row.
This cottage is more suited to family holidaying. (View the Gallery)
Captain Forth
An Army officer – Captain Forth – oversaw the construction of the Pontville Bridge which spans the Jordan River. The unusual sandstone pylons are made from stone quarried from the site on which Lythgo's Row was built. The bridge was built, with convict labour, in 1842. The house was commenced in 1845.
This cottage is named for Captain Forth (View the Gallery)

GTA Online Is Separate To GTA 5
Adam Barnes
Now that GTA 5's multiplayer component has been revealed, we've discovered that it is in fact a separate game altogether.
Published on Aug 15, 2013
There was a reason Rockstar kept referring to GTA Online as a separate title rather than just GTA 5's multiplayer component; because it's actually persistent, open-world multiplayer game.
But first, make sure you watch the announcement video for GTA Online.
GTA Online features its own persistent world, built out of the same Los Santos to appear in GTA 5. But it's a separate game.
Update: In an interview with CVG, Leslie Benzies - Rockstar North's president - confirmed that GTA 5 and GTA Online are completely separate.
"It'll be GTA Online," said Benzies, "it's not part of GTA 5. Obviously it's set in the GTA 5 engine, but it's going to grow and evolve into its own thing.
"Initially, you'll be able to create races and deathmatches, which are probably the simplest. And then, over time, when we feel comfortable that people are ready to get the new creators, they will be released.
"So it'll be a trickle, but it'll be a constant release of new creators and new content. We don't want to overdo it. It's a complex system."
Benzies then went on to explain the reason behind the two-week delay of GTA Online:
"That's another reason for the two week delay between single-player and Online. We want to give people an opportunity to actually get their heads around what's happened, because even single-player is a big advancement from the old games. There's a lot of new things to learn."
It will be accessible within GTA 5, however, despite being a separate entity.
"When it launches," said Benzies, "you'll have an extra character on your Switch Wheel. Instead of choosing Franklin, Michael or Trevor, you'll select your multiplayer character and you'll be sucked straight in there."
For clarity, here's Rockstar's official statement on the game:
Watch the new Official Gameplay Video for Grand Theft Auto Online - which shows how we've taken the fundamental GTA concepts of freedom, ambient activity and mission-based gameplay and made them available to multiple players in an incredibly detailed and responsive online world.
In Grand Theft Auto Online, you'll have the freedom to explore alone or with friends, work cooperatively to complete missions, band together to participate in activities and ambient events, or compete in traditional game modes with the entire community, all with the personality and refined mechanics of Grand Theft Auto V.
Access to Grand Theft Auto Online is free with every retail copy of Grand Theft Auto V and launches on October 1st.
GTA Online will launch two weeks after the launch of GTA 5, and is free with every retail copy of GTA 5 - does this mean that you could, in theory, only buy GTA Online and not GTA 5?
We've reached out to Rockstar to clarify the matter and will update this story when we find out.

Moments of brilliance can lurk in the most unexpected places. The character Red from "That '70s Show" once pontificated, "Being a man is all about doing things you don't want to do." Herb Younger knows that better than most. The guy bought a 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS with a 396 brand new, spending nearly every dime he had at the time. He cherished the car for over 15 years before being forced to sell the SS to help pay for his sons' educations. Over 20 years later, Jared and Derek began a quest to find the old '65 and return it to its rightful owner.
The search would take over five years, span multiple states and international borders, but the payoff was well worth it. Jared and Derek told their father a film crew was doing a documentary on the American family when the Impala rolled up for the first time, and the look on Herb's face when he sees the canary yellow SS is unmistakeable. It's love.
"It's not just a car. It's all the memories and feelings. It brings all that back."
Yeah. That's about right. Hit the jump to watch the video for yourself.
[Thanks, Diego!]

Secrets of the Conqueror
Stuart Prebble
HMS Conqueror, five thousand tons of nuclear-powered menace, is Britain's most famous submarine. It is the only sub since World War Two to have fired its torpedoes in anger, and the only one to have sunk an enemy ship. Conqueror's sinking of the Argentine cruiser Belgrano made inevitable an all-out war over the future of the Falkland Islands, and sparked off one of the most controversial episodes of twentieth-century politics. Did the Prime Minister Mrs Thatcher deliberately sink the ship, killing 323 men, simply to scupper peace proposals which would have averted an all-out war in the South Atlantic?
The political controversy was fuelled by a war-diary kept by a naval officer on board HMS Conqueror, and as a young TV producer in the 1980s Stuart Prebble scooped the world by locating the diary's author and getting his story on the record.
But in the course of uncovering his Falklands story, Stuart Prebble also learned a military secret that could have come straight out of a Cold War thriller. It involved the top secret activities of the Conqueror in the months before and after the Falklands War, and was a story with international repercussions which went far wider than the sinking of the Belgrano.
Prebble has waited for thirty years to tell his story, and in Secrets of the Conqueror, he finally does so. The revelation of what these brave submariners did before and after the war in the Falklands is one of the great British military success stories, which has been buried under layers of official secrecy for three decades.

I love roasted eggplant so I expected to love this. Unfortunately, even though I used one less lemon than the recipe suggests, I found the flavor of lemon unpleasantly overwhelms this dish. It might work with just a squirt of lemon, but with the recipe as written, the result is, IMO, inedible.

Arrange the eggplants in a baking dish at least 2 inches deep, such as a 9-by-13-inch pan. Thinly slice 1 lemon. Squeeze the juice from the remaining 2 lemons. Insert the lemon slices into the slit in each eggplant, then press some garlic and oregano into each slit. Season with the salt and pepper. Drizzle the eggplants with the lemon juice and oil.

A few months ago I wrote about my impressions of the iPad 2 and wasn't terribly impressed. Since I always carry a smartphone and a netbook when I needed to take notes outside, I didn't see a point in owning a tablet. Well months later, I was getting ready to studying abroad and wanted to simplify my luggage. I wanted to read books but not carry my large collection of paperbacks. I also did not want to bring my netbook and large Sony laptop but still have a gadget to take notes on the go. That's when I decided to purchase an Asus Eee Pad Transformer.
The Transformer is a 10-inch Android tablet with an attachable keyboard dock. Unlike many other tablets, the build quality is pretty nice made out of glass, metal, and hardplastic. The back of the tablet has a really nice texture that makes gripping easy. Like the iPad, holding the Transformer without the dock is still a little too heavy for me. The keyboard on the dock is small but useable. One problem I have is that when typing I sometimes accidentally click the trackpad, but I usually disable the trackpad and use an external mouse. The dock also has two usb ports and an SD card port, which is useful when I want to watch some videos on my external hard drive or check my photos that I just took. The dock also has a spare battery in it that can charge the tablet, which is great since I'm not at home most of the day. Spec-wise, I think it's on par, if not better than the iPad.
The tablet is already a little short of a year old and has already been outclassed by the newer Transformer Primes, but Asus has been kind enough to update the OS to the latest software Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0). The tablet is snappier and faster with less bugs and annoyances. Typing has been a lot better as the OS doesn't freeze when I'm typing really fast.
I have to admit. I quickly dismissed the iPad since I couldn't see it as a productivity device. It wasn't until I saw crazy people in coffee shops typing away on their iPads using their bluetooth keyboards that I saw the appeal. The number of productivity iPad apps are enormous compared to what's in the Android Market. The number of tablet optimized Twitter apps are abysmal with none that are to my liking. The official Facebook and Twitter apps are not tablet optimized. Even the Google+ app isn't. It's really sad.
Despite not having a wide selection of quality apps, I've been able to find a few daily essentials. The recent Chrome beta browser is the best browser I've ever used on an Android device. The native Gmail app is amazing, and Google Docs is finally usable. I use Onenote and Evernote to take notes, Jotterpad (which is what I'm using now to type) for blog posts, and the Kindle app to read books. One of the best apps on the iPad is Flipboard, a user-generated magazine using Twitter to gather the most interesting posts on the internet. Though it's not exactly the same, Feedly has been really enjoyable to read with its clear and magazine-style layout. There's also some Adobe apps like Photoshop (which just recently got released on the iPad too) that I think might be helpful to me in the future.
I don't know if I would really recommend the Transformer or any Android tablet at the moment. It's fun for enthusiasts like me, and I found ways to make it useful in my daily life. But for most people I don't think they can get through the frustrations I've had. At the moment it's best to either get an iPad or wait to see what's coming soon. With Windows 8 coming out later this fall, the future of Android tablets don't look that great. But I'm sure Andy Rubin and the folks at Google are planning this for the long run.
I recently had the pleasure of borrowing my cousin's iPad for a day and thought I'd share my thoughts.
The iPad gets a lot of hype. It's a 10 inch touchscreen slate with a single button. It's gorgeous in terms of build quality. The slate is simply a metal frame with a glass touchscreen on top. There's an appstore with plenty of games, productivity tools, news readers, etc. It's great to sit on the couch and read the newest tweets instead of carrying a full laptop or scroll endlessly on a smartphone's small screen. Not only that but it's also dead simple to use. The UI is laid out in rows of icons, one icon for each application. If the user wants to get away from an app, just click the single button at the bottom of the iPad (in portrait mode) and get back to the homescreen. Simple.
Techy babble
The iPad sounds like a great product for the average user, but maybe the iPad is just a little too simple. The iPad is basically an overblown iPhone, and I believe that statement. The dead simple UI is exactly the same, a desktop with a grid of icons with barely any complexity that a power user may want. With that being said, I admit that I am an Android user. I do prefer my Samsung Nexus S to my friend's iPhone, but my bias is not a good excuse to write off my criticisms. Of course Apple is listening to their users complaining. Just look at iOS 5's pulldown notification tray, obviously inspired by Android's notification system that was implemented since day one. Hopefully, iOS 5 will make the system seem more connected.
When I used the iPad, I constantly felt disconnected. I was consecutively using one application at a time, never multitasking (and this 10 inch screen screams productivity potential). On an iPhone, I can understand why a user may want to do one task at a time. It's a 3.5 inch screen; why would anyone need to open more than one app at a time? Maybe it's simply psychological, but when I held the iPad 2, I noticed how it was the same size as a netbook and wondered if it had the potential to perform similar tasks. The smartphone has now become mature enough for users to have certain expectations, such as being able to take and send photos to social networks. It's meant to perform simple tasks. With the iPad, I think that there is still confusion as to how consumers are suppose to use it. After all, the iPad is more expensive than many netbooks but without many of the functions. The iPad likes to advertise itself as a post-PC product for the masses, but it is a little expensive to be an appliance priced item. If someone is shelling out $500, people should know that it's definitely not a PC replacement by any stretch of the imagination.
Games and apps
Being not much of a gamer, I didn't play games on the tablet other than a few minutes of Angry Birds. I agree with those that say playing games on a large touchscreen is a lot more enjoyable than on a 4 inch smartphone; the extra 6 inches make a difference. The experience of swinging a bird across the screen seems a lot "fuller", being able to enjoy the smooth animation of the birds flying across, hitting rocks, planks, and pigs. The social networking on the iPad, however, was a hit or miss. Though I did enjoy using Echofon (a popular Twitter app) on the iPad, the Facebook app was not optimize. There's no native iPad app, so I was using the iPhone version instead. Once blown up from 1x to fullscreen, the application just looks like a mess. The text is blurry, and the gradient bars are heavily pixelated.
One of the most enjoyable uses of the iPad for me, however, was Flipboard and the NYTimes apps. Flipboard aggregates the news from twitter and creates a very visually appealing layout consisting of quality photos and flowing animation over a plane white background. I was constantly forgetting that Flipboard is basically just aggregating news articles and photos that's popular on Twitter. I'm also a frequent reader of the New York Times and thought the iPad application was just as useful. It looks basically like a copy of the faux newspaper style layout of the site, though I'm not complaining. Reading the news on the couch and placing it on my lap was really enjoyable. I kept getting excited that I was basically reading things like a book without having to flip pages like one. My only complaint may be that the iPad is a little heavy to constantly hold it in the air. There were many times where I wanted to just hold the iPad closer to my face, but my hands just got tired.
Overall, the iPad is not really life-altering. Besides reading on the couch (which I barely am situated in the first place), there's no real reason for me to buy an iPad. Maybe in the future instead using the laptop to read ebooks, I would use a tablet instead to study. But this is summertime, and I'm not actively reading ebooks. The iPad is okay for playing games and casually reading the news, however, since I'm not really much of a gamer and constantly have a laptop or smartphone near me, I don't see a reason to buy an iPad.
My post on why people should consider subscription-based music services. It's like Netflix but for music.
For the past few months I've been using Rdio, a monthly subscription site that offers unlimited music streaming and downloads. It's a great bargain. Pay $5 a month, and listen to as much music on the site as time will give. Pay $10 and be able to use the mobile apps. It was a decision over picking a similar subscription-based music site called MOG due to its lackluster and underdeveloped Android app. Well, I decided to revisit MOG after a recent "major" update to the Android app and make a comparison between the two.
Why subscription music matters?
Think of the many services that people subscribe. They subscribe to their favorite newspaper, such as the New York Times for its news reporting, Netflix for its unlimited video streaming, and Hulu Plus for their favorite television shows. Why not pay a monthly fee for unlimited music streaming? As a huge music nerd, I think this is a brilliant idea. Just like Netflix, it is a gateway to discover new content that people may never have found and rediscover lost favorites. Listen to a new album and make a judgment call without going through complicated and sometimes illegal channels. There is, however, a catch. Subscribing to one of these music services mean that the user can only listen to music the record companies allow, and the user does not own any of the content. There's no physical copy that the user can listen when their subscription runs out. In today's world with the advance information technology, does anybody have to own everything that they listen?
Since the internet has open music discovery to new heights, everything is at their fingertips. Search for a torrent. Download. Own it. Buying physical copies become mere novelty for devoted fans. So what does the music industry have to do? Adapt. Sell $10 physical copies or offer $10 unlimited streaming and downloads? That's, however, not the realities of the dilemma. The two choices should be to allow users to spend $0 by downloading illegal copies of CDs or give them the opportunity to listen to what they want at a reasonable cost. People like paying for legal avenues. Treat the customer with respect, and the customers will follow. Giving people unlimited streaming isn't everything though. It's about the execution, and that's why I'm comparing MOG and Rdio.
The numbers
In terms of numbers, MOG has about a million more songs in its collection. MOG has more niche artists, such as Nathan Fake and James Holden, though Rdio is constantly updating its library. Even though numbers don't necessarily mean everything, especially for the modest listener, MOG also offers some pop-artist albums that Rdio does not. One example that I've come is Kanye West's College Dropout. Rdio doesn't have the license to all of the songs, just fourteen of the twenty-one tracks. Unlike Rdio, MOG carries the entire album, including one of my favorites the Mos Def and Freeway collaborative "Two Words". I have not found an album on MOG that are only partially available for streaming, but there have been numerous times that I have experienced this on Rdio.
One added feature that Rdio carries is the Match Collection that's included with the desktop music player. The match collection tool allows Rdio to scan the user's iTunes/Windows Media Player library. The songs that match with Rdio's library are instantly added into the user's collection. I find the match collection tool really useful in creating a quick collection of favorites on the site. Though Rdio does not have everything that I own, it catches the majority of it. One flaw with the match collection tool is that it sometimes only add part of albums into the collection, and I would have to manually add the rest of the songs. MOG does not have such a tool, nor even a desktop music player.
Audio quality
I am not a total audiophile, but I can usually tell if the audio quality is bad. When it comes to audio streaming, MOG and Rdio have similar quality coming out of my puny laptop speakers. It's not CD quality, but for $10 a month and ease of use it's well worth it. The major difference in audio quality is through their mobile apps. MOG and Rdio both offer music downloads to any Android/iPhone device. For comparison, I'm using a Samsung/Google Nexus S. I never use their radio and album streaming capabilities since it drains the battery. MOG offers two options for downloading, 64 kbps AAC+ and 320 kbps MP3 "high quality downloads". Rdio however does not offer any options, and there's a huge difference. For most users, the audio quality may not make much of a difference, but I really prefer MOG's high quality downloads over Rdio's subpar offering. Plug the phone while its playing Rdio to the car stereo, and I can hear the bass blaring while the rest of the song sounds like noise.
While MOG offers more content and better audio quality, what made me initially choose Rdio over MOG was its interface and ease of use. When it comes to interface, Rdio just makes more sense. On the Rdio dashboard, the right panel takes up 3/4 of the screen displaying various information on what the user's network is listening. The site displays large album art that can be clicked to play instantly, add to queue, sync to the mobile device, and for more information. The left panel is restricted to the media player, showcasing the album art, track information, and large play, previous track, and forward track buttons. Click the playlist button, and the right panel changes to provide the "Recently Played", "Now Playing", and "Queue" list. The queue list divides the song by albums.
The MOG front page, however, looks incredibly underwhelming. Instead of the welcoming blue background and large buttons like on Rdio, the MOG site contains small, plain black text on a white background. The album art images are small (200x200!). There's no sidebar player. In fact, no user can access what they were previous playing unless they select an artist, album, or song and click play or add to queue! It's just counterintuitive and annoying. Unlike Rdio's queue list, MOG is similar to itunes or winamp in which it organizes by songs instead of albums.
Both sites have a radio service similar to Pandora and Last.fm where the user can choose an artist and a custom playlist will be made based on similar artists. While this sounds great, I could not get the radio to work on the Rdio site. MOG has an advantage of having a similar artist meter where the user can choose how often MOG plays the same artist. It's really useful if the user only wants to listen to their favorite artists but don't want to choose a specific album. Music discovery on Rdio, however, makes more sense. Click on an artist profile, and on the right sidebar there is a biography of the artist, a list of similar artists, as well as a list of artists that inspire or were inspired that artist. MOG has none of that; artist profiles are very plain with only a list of songs, albums, and a few photos.
One of the appealing features that Rdio has is the social networking aspect. A user can follow other users, magazines, and websites and see what music they recommend as well as subscribe to their playlists. MOG has a similar social network, but discovery is not onpar. Instead, it seems that the social networking is only half formulated and hardly executed. Music recommendations are not based on a user's music preference, but instead by MOG developers'. Users are encouraged to follow others, but there are little ways in discovering people with similar tastes. MOG however has a wider variety of playlists made by musicians, professionals, magazines and other publications, but there is no way of saving these playlists on the site!
Many of the problems that MOG have are resolved in the MOG beta site (http://mog.com/chrome). There is a dedicated player at the top of the page at all times. The layout is more welcoming with its multi-shaded gray interface, but many of the key features on the main site are left out. The playlist discovery section is gone. There is still little to no social networking, and the music recommendations are unappealing. Not everyone enjoys listening to Brad Paisley and Lady Gaga.
The Apps
Though MOG and Rdio have iPhone apps, this section is limited since I only really use the Android apps. The Rdio app is quite amazing. On the Rdio site, the user can choose which albums or playlists that they want to sync their mobile device. Open the Rdio app, and it will automatically download the files for offline listening. The MOG app, however, is lackluster, unpolished, unstable, and unusable. There is no sync-to-mobile button on the site to push albums or playlists to the Android app. The user must actively click download on their mobile device one by one for each album. Not only that, but the downloads are a lot slower. That can be because the MOG files are much higher in quality, but there are also frequent errors that will skip a track or stop the download queue entirely. There are many error messages and login problems that will stop the track or app entirely.
Comparatively, the Rdio app is like a godsend. It works smoothly with barely any hiccups. Click on an album, and it'll play. Whenever there is a phone notification or phone call, the MOG app will randomly play a song. A MOG app user can search for a playlist and add it to their favorites on the phone, but it will not transfer over to the site. It's like the website and app are not really even communicating to one another! The only communication that happens is that if a MOG user logins to the website, the app will discontinuously download the music files and stop playback because no one user can be in two places. The artificial barrier is nothing more than annoyance to the end user. Have more trust in the user. Most are not trying to take advantage of the system. To be fair, Rdio does not allow two playbacks at once either, but at least the mobile sync still works.
Both MOG and Rdio have their positives and negatives. MOG has better audio quality, while Rdio has a better user interface. In my case, I have little incentive to use Rdio's social networking, and I don't really care about radio features. If having a stable Android app is important, I would definitely recommend Rdio over MOG. Though MOG's audio quality on downloads are so much better, the Rdio app is just more stable and easier to use.
Thanks to my friend Ryan, who graciously let me have his Zune, I stop using either MOG or Rdio's android app. Music playback on the phone drains the battery too quickly. I now use MOG on my laptop mostly because the Chrome app is nice and that I cancelled my Rdio subscription before my friend gave me his Zune. Why not pay for the Zune subscription instead? Being a poor college student, I can't justify paying $15 per month for the Zune Pass despite being a great service. Also, I really like being able to start MOG anywhere through the web browser. It's OS neutral, which is great since I run Windows and Ubuntu. All of this monthly subscription business, however, is pointless when I'll be overseas in a few months. If one of these subscription-based services would work in Japan, I would switch in a heartbeat. Maybe Google Music is the way to go for my case. I hope it works in Japan.

text: When does a script become more than lines actors say? When does it make the film feel more like life and less like art? Let me rephrase: when a film, or any art form, evokes life so vividly will it be something more than art, or is that what art is? I don't know the answer to that, all I know is that this trilogy, concluded in all of its storytelling majesty, has reached a point where no other film matches what Richard Linklater, Ethan Hawke, and Julie Delpy did. Storytelling is life. Storytelling is art. And this film is both.

The Undercover Economist: Exposing Why the Rich Are Rich, the Poor Are poor--and Why You Can Never Buy a Decent Used Car!by Tim Harford
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
An economist's version of The Way Things Work, this engaging volume is part field guide to economics and part expose of the economic principles lurking behind daily events, explaining everything from traffic jams to high coffee prices.
The Undercover Economist is for anyone who's wondered why the gap between rich and poor nations is so great, or why they can't seem to find a decent second-hand car, or how to outwit Starbucks. This book offers the hidden story behind these and other questions, as economist Tim Harford ranges from Africa, Asia, Europe, and of course the United States to reveal how supermarkets, airlines, and coffee chains--to name just a few--are vacuuming money from our wallets. Harford punctures the myths surrounding some of today's biggest controversies, including the high cost of health-care; he reveals why certain environmental laws can put a smile on a landlord's face; and he explains why some industries can have high profits for innocent reasons, while in other industries something sinister is going on. Covering an array of economic concepts including scarce resources, market power, efficiency, price gouging, market failure, inside information, and game theory, Harford sheds light on how these forces shape our day-to-day lives, often without our knowing it.
Showing us the world through the eyes of an economist, Tim Harford reveals that everyday events are intricate games of negotiations, contests of strength, and battles of wits. Written with a light touch and sly wit, The Undercover Economist turns "the dismal science" into a true delight.
Tim Harford writes the "Dear Economist" column in the Financial Times Magazine, in which he draws upon the latest economic theories to provide tongue-in-cheek answers to readers' personal dilemmas. Formerly an economics editorial writer at the Financial Times, Harford has worked at the International Finance Corporation, for a major oil company, and as an economics tutor at Oxford University. He lives in Washington DC.

Breakfast Pizza looks great. I have started doing a weekly breakfast pie. I basically make my standard apple pie however I leave out the sugar (it really doesn't need it) and I add in other healthy things like blueberries, chia seeds, walnuts, flax meal, oats etc. Delicious and guilt free.

AOKP – the most popular custom ROM around after CyanogenMod and famous for its vast amount of customization options – is currently making a transition into Jelly Bean from Ice Cream Sandwich. The AOKP team recently uploaded the source for AOKP for the community, using which XDA Senior Member gmillz has released a AOKP based ROM for the Asus Transformer TF300T, though with only a few customization options included right now.
NOTE: The ROM is in a very early stage of development and not suitable for daily use yet, so there are quite a few issues with a lot of thinks not working, so consider this only a preview of Jelly Bean. Also, AOKP is in an early stage so do not expect to see many customization options of AOKP to be present in the ROM in the beginning.
Here's a list of things that work/do not work currently (the most updated list can be found on the development page linked in the guide):
What works:
What doesn't work:
ROM CONTROL – aokp hasn't finished the source for this yet
Read on for the instructions on how to flash AOKP on your ASUS Transformer TF300T.
This guide is applicable only for Asus Transformer TF300T. DO NOT try this on any other device.
The methods and procedures discussed here are considered risky and you should not attempt anything if you don't know completely what it is. If any damage occurs to your device, we won't be held liable.
How to Install AOKP ROM on Asus Transformer TF300T
- This procedure will wipe all your apps, data and settings (but it will NOT touch your SD cards, so don't worry about those). Backup your Apps and important data — bookmarks, contacts, SMS, APNs (internet settings), etc. This Android backup guide would help you.
Important! Don't forget to at least make a backup of your APN settings, which you can restore later if your data connection does not work after installing the ROM. Use the backup guide to find out how.
- Install ClockworkMod recovery using the guide → here.
- Download the latest version of the ROM from the official development page.
- Copy the zip file downloaded in step 3 to the internal SD card (without extracting it).
- Shut down the tablet. Then boot into CWM recovery. To do that, press and hold Volume Down + Power, until a message appears on-screen saying "Press Vol. Up to enter RCK (5s)". Here, in less than 5 seconds, press the Volume Up button to enter CWM recovery.
In recovery, use the volume buttons to navigate/scroll and the power button to select.
- Perform a Nandroid Backup of your existing ROM, so that you can always restore it from recovery if something does not work out with this ROM. To perform a backup, select Backup and Restore –> On the next screen, select Backup again. Go back to main recovery menu after backup is complete.
- Select wipe data/factory reset, then select Yes on next screen to confirm. Wait a while till the data wipe is complete (this will not erase your personal files).
- Now select install zip from sdcard, then select choose zip from sdcard. Scroll to the ROM file on the sdcard and select it. Confirm installation by selecting Yes – Install _____.zip on the next screen. The ROM will start installing.
- After the installation is complete, go back to the main recovery menu and select reboot system now to reboot the tablet and boot up into AOKP. The first boot will take some time, up to 5 minutes.
- Returning to Previous ROM: To go back to your previous ROM, boot into recovery, select backup and restore then restore your previous ROM by selecting it from the list.

The campaign brings to life the fact that Australians love nothing more than enjoying a delicious COON Toastie - in a tongue-in-cheek, humorous style that's always been synonymous with the COON brand.
The idea makes eating a cheese toastie something fun and special. We want to turn Australians into a nation of COONoisseurs.

A proposal placed before the Los Alamos County Council on Tuesday to move the Los Alamos visitor center to Fuller Lodge drew a storm of opposition from the downtown business community and community members concerned about the impact on the historic lodge.
After lengthy discussion, Council Chair Geoff Rodgers concluded that the majority of council did not support the proposal. The meeting was a work session, so no formal vote was taken.
The question before council was whether moving the visitor center to Fuller Lodge should be included as an option in a Request for Proposals for visitor center services.
The current contract with the Los Alamos Commerce and Development Corporation for those services is up for renewal at the end of the year, and an RFP will be issued this month. Due to a downturn in Lodgers' Tax revenues, staff was asked to propose a county-owned location for the visitor center in order to defray the costs of leasing space.
"One of the objectives of the RFP is provide us with options and alternatives," said Deputy County Administrator/Chief Financial Officer Steven Lynne.
If Fuller Lodge was considered, Lynne proposed including a mandatory reevaluation period after a three-year trial.

You can't make this stuff up. If Ronald Reagan liked jumping off bridges, Rick, would you make a speech while jumping off a bridge?
I was concerned that he was going to the one in Wisconsin; I love that Jelly Belly factory.
It also confuses me. Why is he going to the one in California, when their primary is two months away, rather than the Wisconsin one, when their primary is less than one week away?
Dans le Tea Party on veut qu'on nous foute la paix, qu'on nous laisse vivre comme avant, quand tout allait bien, quand l'Amérique vivait sous le status quo anglo-saxon, lorsque le Taliban était à la solde de la CIA, et que ni les Chinois ni Al Qaeda ne s'opposaient à l'hégémonie de l'oncle Sam. Dans le Tea Party on est typiquement blanc, et ok financièrement, du coup on panique un peu lorsque le monde change comme ces temps-ci. Par contre on ne se préoccupe pas trop du climat, car comment concevoir que l'homme puisse avoir en son pouvoir de défaire ce que Dieu a créé.
[In the Tea Party, they wish to be left alone, to live as before when everything was going well, when America embodied the Anglo-Saxon status quo, when the Taliban were on the CIA payroll, and when neither the Chinese nor al Qaeda opposed the hegemony of Uncle Sam. Those in the Tea Party are typically white, and 'ok' financially and hence in something of a panic ever since the world began to change as the times changed. They don't worry about climate change, because they cannot imagine how mankind could have in its power to mess up what God created.]
