Teri Takai's confirmation hearings on hold as the Defense Secretary reviews organizational structure
Confirmation hearings for Defense Chief Information Officer nominee Teri Takai are on hold while Defense Secretary Robert Gates makes good on his promise to slash the defense budget by reviewing the organization's structure.
The Senate Armed Services Committee, which had expected to begin hearings on Aug. 3, announced Tuesday that Takai had been removed from the schedule pending an internal review.
"In light of the secretary's initiative to reduce overhead and achieve efficiencies, the department is in the process of reviewing the entire organizational structure," a Senate Armed Services Committee spokesperson said in a statement. "While we are examining any number of options and avenues for the best way forward, we wanted to maintain some flexibility. Therefore, we determined that it was best not to go forward with this confirmation hearing until this internal review was completed."
The review is part of broader efforts announced by Gates earlier this summer to slash Defense Department spending by $100 billion to help fund the dual wars in the Middle East.

DOD aims to slash budget by $100B to pay for war
Under DOD's current structure, the CIO serves as assistant secretary of defense for Networks and Information Integration. However, last month the Defense Business Board recommended the dissolution of DOD's NII directorate, as part of a broader downsizing of defense organizations to meet the goal of saving $100 billion.
DOD has been without a CIO since John Grimes left in 2009. Since then, Cheryl Roby has worked as acting assistant secretary of defense for NII, and Dave Wennergren as deputy CIO.
Takai currently serves as CIO for California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Life can be an awesome adventure for the one who dares;
shouldn't it also be for those in love,
who leave their dreamy hearts in a blossoming grove,
and will it, in definite time, turn into dreams?
Seek yours in forbidden realms,
let it come in form of fantasy...
await the blissful joy of a discover at sea,
or that one that mounts hide on their peaks!
Sail away as Columbus and Cabot did by reciting Hail Mary,
have faith by proving it to yourself, but ignore derisive laughs;
your ship will have you as captain and nobody else,
don't lose your way among crashing waves that make you afraid.
Remember your ambition when you left shore for glory...
don't let doubt discourage you from achieving what you planned!
My aspiration is to be an accomplished writer,
and starting off this adventure, I will use ample imagination;
madness some will say...weren't the explorers' minds driven by conviction?
Follow me and I'll prove them wrong: unearth my literary treasure!

Radiotherapy and Brachytherapy (NATO Science for Peace and Security Series B: Physics and Bi)by Yves (edt) Lemoigne
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
This volume collects a series of lectures presented at the tenth ESI School held at Archamps (FR) in November 2007 and dedicated to radiotherapy and brachytherapy. The lectures focus on the multiple facets of radiotherapy in general, including external radiotherapy (often called teletherapy) as well as internal radiotherapy (called brachytherapy). Radiotherapy strategy and dose management as well as the decisive role of digital imaging in the associated clinical practice are developed in several articles. Grouped under the discipline of Conformal Radiotherapy (CRT), numerous modern techniques, from Multi-Leaf Collimators (MLC) to Intensity Modulated RadioTherapy (IMRT), are explained in detail. The importance of treatment planning based upon patient data from digital imaging (Computed Tomography) is also underlined. Finally, despite the quasi- totality of patients being presently treated with gamma and X-rays, novel powerful tools are emerging using proton and light ions (like carbon ions) beams, bound to become more and more important in patient treatment. These technological developments, going under the comprehensive name of "Hadrontherapy", are presented here with special focus on the rational and state of the art of the field. All topics are presented with didactical language and styles, making this book an appropriate reference for students and professionals seeking a comprehensive introduction to the field as well as a reliable outlook on the most recent developments.

I spent my summer holiday reading Andy Beckett's When the Lights Went Out: Britain in the Seventies. I'm a child of the seventies but I didn't know much about what was going on 'behind the scenes.' The book makes for a lively read and dispels some of the myths about it all being 'doom and gloom' (although there was some of that).

NAPLES, Fla. - A local Naples business man who spent millions of his own money to take out TV ads against Obamacare has decided to jump into the political arena himself.
Republican Rick Scott, who is up against State Attorney Bill McCollum in the primary for Florida Governor, tells WINK News jobs will be the key to controlling the budget.
Scott was CEO of Columbia/HCA, a chain of walk in clinics. The company was investigated for fraud in 1997 for over billing and had to pay out $1.7 billion.
Scott himself was not charged. He talked to us about topic saying "Clearly people made mistakes. I don't think any of them were intentional. When you're the CEO the buck always stops with you, you have to take responsibility."
He says he's learned a lot of lessons and has applied them to the things he's done.
Scott says if elected he would balance the state budget with "accountability budgeting" and living with the means without President Obama's bailout.

Given all the scrutiny the regional airline industry has absorbed over the past year, one might forgive RAA president Roger Cohen for succumbing to some cynicism.
When Miami-based Air Platinum Club began operating last summer, CEO Mickael Cohen proclaimed, "Private air travel is here to stay." But the club itself no longer appears to be. A few weeks ago, Air Platinum was touting flights within the continental U.S. and between Paris and major U.S.
Last year's fourth quarter saw regional airline departures decline 11.6 percent, passenger traffic drop 7.5 percent, total capacity fall 9 percent and block hours drop 13.2 percent. Although the RAA hasn't yet compiled first-quarter numbers, monthly figures from early this year didn't raise the spirits of anyone looking for signs of a quick turnaround.
Former AOPA and Air Transport Association official Roger Cohen replaced Debby McElroy last month as the president of the Regional Airline Association (RAA). Cohen assumed the post on December 18, three days after McElroy left for a new position at Airports Council International-North America.

Get Ready For The Citywide Track and Field Festival
Wow! To say our first Citywide Track and Field Festival in 20 years was exciting is an understatement. We had over 300 wild and crazy kids ready to run, jump and play, and that they did.
From the opening ceremony – a spectacular guitar version of the National Anthem by Thomas De Bourbon and Jackson Felton – to the final "everyone on the track for a victory lap" things just kept happening.
It was a cold, windy day and I would like to say that everything went as planned… Every race was run, every runner run and the field event was full, and the meet ended on time.
Of course, we had our challenges. However, all the parents, coaches and volunteers were great! They kept their cool and maintain patience in the mist of a whirlwind of activity. Some real heroes emerged through the fog of chaos. For instance, our roving M.C., Danny Paiva, continued a steady stream of fresh race results even while being bombarded by demands from every direction. At the finish line Rich Fishbaugh and Mike Bolar furiously recorded times and places while hunched over a wind swept table; Gary Jean courageously manned his post as Captain of the Clerks even as herds of 3rd and 4th graders stormed his position; and who could ever forget the sight of the legendary Jerry Engler and his yellow Cal cap buried in a swarm of little uniforms as he surveyed the finish line trying to capture exact places. Alas, we will never know what happened to the brave souls at the medals stand. They were last seen being overwhelmed by laughing, smiling, jumping athletes – winners all!
Thanks to our Sponsors the meet was a financial success. I will suggest that we donate $1000 to each of our participating schools to be use for their athletic programs, and $500 each for the high school teams that were such great help.
There were many more unsung heroes on the day and we thank you ALL for helping bring back the Citywide Tracks and Field meet. WE LOOK FORWARD TO AN EVEN BIGGER AND BETTER 2015 CITYWIDE YOUTH TRACK AND FIELD FESTIVAL.

Watermelon Radish
>> Friday, October 29, 2010
I got a curious looking vegetable in my CSA boxshare today.
No, it's not a watermelon, though it looked so much like one I couldn't resist throwing some sesame seeds on it.
Hello watermelon radish!
The watermelon radish is a winter radish that grows particularly well when the weather gets cooler. It's got a ton of alternate names, such as Beauty Heart, Rose Heart, Shinrimei, Misato, Asian Red Meat, or Xin Li Mei radish. It's an heirloom variety of the Chinese daikon.
From the outside it looks just like an ordinary turnip or radish. I thought nothing of it, until I cut it open.


text: Lawrence of Arabia (1962) - dir. David Lean Forget the Fall, forget the Tree of Life, There Will Be Blood, Manhattan or any other film that tickles your visual fancy… because David Lean and director of photography F.A. Young did it better, and they did over half a century ago. Lawrence of Arabia is an epic by every definition - but it is also the most astoundingly beautiful film you'll ever see. It's an incredible feat. The film itself… suffers from being far too much of a great thing. I love movies. But something rubs me wrong about a film that clocks in at well over three hours. There's nothing wrong with Lawrence of Arabia - it's got everything you could possible want in a film (and it should what with all that time) but when it all boils down the film is not exciting enough to demand repeat viewings. It is, however, an artistic triumph like no other. 7.7

Thanks for the reply, I was under the impression that XMLBeans was really good (from reading around) but you've definitely given it a negative slant. I don't know enough about it yet but from my naive point of view the problems you've raised seem like they could [or should be able to] be solved just be turning on a switch...

Fra Giovanni da Fiesole ~a.k.a.~ Beato Angelico Cristo Deriso (The Mocking of Christ) 1438
150x189 cm
Museum of San Marco, Florence
I'm having a hard time stepping away from religious themes right now without feeling like I'm jumping too far ahead, but this portrait of Christ is delightfully strange. So, what is it that makes this fresco famous? Well, first off let me give you a little bit of background, then I'll get right to that.
Beato Angelico was commissioned by Cosimo de' Medici between 1438-1445 to decorate the Church of San Marco. For those of you unfamiliar with the lore of Florence, Florence was the birthplace of the Renaissance, the Medici family ruled and funded Florence during the Renaissance, and and San Marco is located in downtown Florence (It's even where I get off the bus to go downtown :P). Fra Angelico (as he is referred to by English speakers) spent those years painting frescoes that featured the episodes of Christ and his apostles in each of the upstairs cells of the convent. I wish I could find a source to give the exact number of frescoes in this building, but from what I remember there were around 30 of them. He didn't just paint the cells. He also decorated the hallways! Needless to say, this project was a pretty big deal.
So, what is it that makes this Fresco really so valuable against the rest of Angelico's work and that of his peers? It's the use of mysterious symbols in describing this scene of suffering. One theory says that this piece is a projection of the reflections of the two figures sitting in front of him. I guess that would mean his loved ones remembered him with floating hands holding sticks, but seriously you will find that almost every other Renaissance piece up to this fresco were designed provide a narration. Here we're looking at a symbolic representation for the suffering of Christ for monks of the convent to meditate on, heavy stuff.
Jesus sits blindfolded upon a red box, which is a sort of mocked throne, giving into the essential prospective of the Renaissance. If you look closely you will see that under the blindfold Jesus's eyes are cast down in shame. I don't have an explanation to each symbol, but the green backdrop was something reserved for displaying figures of glory. Either that's the artists way of paying his respects or it's an ironic medium used to highlight the patronization of Christ. Beato Angelico doesn't exactly seem to be the type for sacrilege. I better not let my imagination get the best of me on that subject. Anyway, Beato Angelico is admired for his use of bright colors, and the green does provide a rather lovely contrast.
Hmmmm, so…. what else can I say about this Fresco? The geometrical importance of the painting can also be seen in the triangular scheme that is made up by the disposition of Mary, St. Dominic, and Jesus. The other thing I wanted to mention was the halo. In every piece by Beato Angelico that includes Jesus, he uses a red cross in the aura to mark Christ. One of those stylistic details that I found sets the artist apart from the other religious art of his time.
If you're still not convinced that this painting rocks, I just want to point out the floating, Robin Hood head that's spitting in Jesus's face. It's probably meant to be a basic metaphor, but I still think it's funny.

One reason multisexual people who are not bisexual may choose identify as "bisexual" is because it's the most convenient and/or the only available identity to use. For example, because I have no other option, I am listed as "bisexual" on several social-networking websites, although I identify very strongly as pansexual. Also, I occasionally tell people that I am "bi" (or, more often, I respond along the lines of "yeah, sorta" to their inquiry). In these situations, I walk a fine line between self-preservation and cisgenderism. On one hand, I don't feel comfortable talking about the details of my identity with people who are unlikely to understand anything beyond gay, straight, or bi, especially when I am with people who are uninformed about queer issues, and may already intentionally or unintentionally be projecting heterosexist attitudes and assumptions onto me. Other times, I worry that the people I am speaking to may be intentionally or unintentionally cissexist and/or cisgenederist, and thus they might make assumptions about myself and my partners when I explain that I am attracted to people other than men and women; specifically, I worry that they may not understand the concept of identifying as a gender other than man and woman, and may instead misinterpret me as third-gendering binary trans individuals (especially since I've had binary-gendered trans partners). Other people just want to be understood: explaining non-binary gender identities and sexualities other than gay, straight, or bi can be excruciatingly difficult in an uninformed hetero-, cis-, and binary-normative culture, and it is unfair to posit any queer individual as responsible for educating non-queer people about queer issues. On the other hand, I fear that by telling others that I am bisexual rather than explaining the existence of non-binary genders, I am contributing to the erasure of people with non-binary genders in our society. Conveniently identifying as bisexual is a binary-gender privilege, and it's easy for someone who identifies fully or primarily as man or woman, but impossible for a non-binary person to do without erasing their own existence.

When I want to know what misogyny is, I don't ask a man. When I want to know what racism is, I don't ask a white person. When I want to know what homophobia is, I don't ask a heterosexual. When I want to know what transphobia is, I don't ask a cisgender person. When I want to know what ableism is, I don't ask an able-bodied person. The contours and definitions of oppression are best articulated by the oppressed.

Chloe Sevigny in Interview on her upcoming role as a transgender character:
I tried to lose a lot of weight because I thought it would make me look more masculine if I were gaunt. I had to do a lot of nudity as well, so I figured if I were less curvy, that would help. I was working out a lot because my character does a lot of physical stuff as an assassin. When I got to Manchester, where we were filming, I had rehearsals with the director and writer. I wanted to play the role with this exaggerated feminine behavior that a lot of transgender male-to-females have. It's like a learned femininity. It's very girly. But they didn't want that. I thought, Well, how are you going to know? How can we remind the audience who I am? So on the show there are a lot of quick glimpses of me naked, wearing a prosthetic penis, which was horrifying. But I tried to get some of my own ideas in there. We did all of these different walks. I literally spent hours just sitting and moving my hands and walking to prepare.
Not everyone who is trans does these things. Trans* is not monolithic. We are legion;)
Trans women come from all walks of life and present ourselves in many different ways. Some of us present as very feminine and some of us present as very butch. Most of us fall somewhere in between.
This one does not appreciate being parodied in any way, even unintentionally by "well meaning" cis folk.
I don't even know who Chloe Sevigny is, but telegantmess assures me that I have seen her in movies before.
The kicker is that I initially assumed that she was playing a trans man and I though she was wearing a binder.
Seriously, can we have a trans person playing a trans person in a major motion picture release.
I don't even know where to start with how wrong this is.
Bold is mine.
No words for the amount of headdesk and facepalm this induces.
So… she tried to make herself look more masculine… to play a feminine character?
Yeah. Hollywood, don't do that.
WHAT THE? Hang on, I'm very confused. She's playing a trans woman? That's not a binder? Prosthetic penis? Does anyone working on this have the slightest clue?
this is fucking weird. And disturbing
reblogged for trainwrecks.
Umm… yeah… fuck you Chloe.
AUUUUGH. Someone please take the toys away from the cis ppl. >.<
What's even more disappointing is she was in Boys Don't Cry, as Lana Tisdel. I just … if she decides to keep on taking roles in movies about trans* characters one would think she'd know more about the trans* community and the people in it. O.o

Transcript of Mirror by Sylvia Plath
-However, Plath uses slant rhymes such as "darkness" and "fish"
-Also incorporates repetition: "day after day" and "over and over" -Mostly visual (hmmm)
-Emphasis on visual imagery reiterates the motif of vanity and the woman's absorption in her appearance
-The woman ages every day and the mirror reflects this, but the mirror itself doesn't change
-The woman clearly fears aging
-She is disturbed by her old age and reacts to her reflection with "tears and an agitation of hands" -Although she bends over the lake in the manner of Narcissus, the woman does not fall in love with her own image as he did; rather, she is filled with self-loathing at what she sees
-She apparently accepts gender roles and the stereotypes that her culture created Critical perspective #2 She is the woman as male-defined ideal or as the ideal manqué, the woman who desires to remain forever the "young girl" and who "turns to those liars, the candles or the moon" for confirmation of the man-pleasing myth of perpetual youth, docility, and sexual allure In "Mirror", Sylvia Plath executes various forms of literary devices, such as symbolism, to highlight the fleetingness of time and consequently, the speaker's attitude toward truthfulness.

We may never find out if Big Foot exists, who Carly Simon wrote "You're So Vain" about, or whether Leonardo DiCaprio is dreaming at the end of Inception. But there is one pop culture mystery which might be cleared up in the near future. For decades, it has been rumored that Atari buried millions of copies of its E.T. videogame at a landfill site in Alamogordo, New Mexico. Now, the Alamogordo city council has given the Los Angeles-based Fuel Entertainment permission to search the site for a film project and find out if one of the videogame industry's most enduring myths is fact or fiction. "The dumping of the E.T. cartridges has always been one of the biggest urban legends in videogame history," says Mike Burns, cofounder and CEO of Fuel Entertainment's parent company, Fuel Industries. "We wanted to find out what's really in there and put an end to the rumors."

See Cheyenne Jackson get dramatic, very wet in 'She Pretty, She Lies' video: EXCLUSIVE
Cheyenne Jackson must have a busy haberdasher, because the man has been known to wear a lot of different hats: scene-stealing TV actor (30 Rock, Behind the Candelabra), theater thespian (Xanadu, Finian's Rainbow), and — especially these days — musician.
Jackson's set to release his debut solo album I'm Blue, Skies tomorrow, and you can watch the video for his single "She Pretty, She Lies,"co-penned by Sia, the singer ("Breathe Me") and songwriter (Rihanna's "Diamonds," Christina Aguilera's "You Lost Me") exclusively here.
The clip, helmed by Peter Tokay, features a fully clothed CJ getting all wet, getting all drunk, and getting all destructive — and doing it all backwards, no less!
Watch Jackson's reverse-chronology "She Pretty, She Lies" video below:
Previewing this week's 'Entertainment Weirdly' show on Sirius XM: Miley, 'Maniac,' and a one-ton musical monkey
What do Miley Cyrus' latest video, Elijah Wood's just-out slasher flick Maniac, and Sarah McLachlan's decision to write the songs for a stage musical of King Kong have in common? That's right, they all feature in my forthcoming YA novel Harry Everdeen and the Terrifying Acid Trip (soon to be a major motion picture and/or massive law suit). But they are also all subjects which will be discussed in this week's edition of Entertainment Weirdly, which is broadcast on Entertainment Weekly Radio, Sirius XM 105, at 1pm ET this afternoon.
Join myself, Darren Franich, and Keith Staskiewicz as we ruminate on the latest strange pop culture shenanigans, recommend a range of oddball malarkey, and mark the release of World War Z by playing an all-zombie movie version of our Christmas present must-have in-the-making game Death Jam.
The unbearable narcissism (and 'complete awesomeness') of Kanye's big 'Yeezus' interview
mind can even digest and understand" — but her inflated sense of self-regard has nothing on her pal Kanye West, who compares himself variously to Michael Jordan, Steve Jobs, Rick Owens, Walt Disney Henry Ford, and Anna Wintour in a new 4,600-word interview with the New York Times. At one point, West even says that he and he alone is the nucleus of all society.
This shouldn't exactly come as a shock; after all, the guy did name his new album Yeezus. And perhaps more importantly, West is hyper-aware of the vital role arrogance plays in his "brand": "The idea of Kanye and vanity are like, synonymous," he tells the Times during a brief moment of self-awareness.
That being said, the interview really is a breathtaking study in the art of narcissism — regardless of whether it's utterly serious or at least partially manufactured. Prepare yourself for the breakfast of champions, e.g. reading the piece's seven most egomaniacal quotes — as well as one that may just endear the guy to you after all.
On hard work, maturity, and never, ever holding a grudge:
"I was on the junior [basketball] team when I was a freshman, that's how good I was. But I wasn't on my eighth-grade team, because some coach — some Grammy, some reviewer, some fashion person, some blah blah blah — they're all the same as that coach[...]I'm letting it out on everybody who doesn't want to give me my credit."
Why are actors dressed like 'Game of Thrones' characters playing piano in exotic locales?
Because the Internet, that's why! Behold the fourth episode of a webseries called "Cosplay Piano," in which 19-year-old pianist Sonya Belousova dresses up as your costumed favorites and plays new arrangements of their iconic themes. She's already tackled the worlds of The Walking Dead, Batman, and Superman — so naturally, the universe of HBO and George R. R. Martin's Game of Thrones was next.
And though the clip opens with a facsimile of Daenerys jamming in the desert, there's more to it than just the Khaleesi. In the span of just three and a half minutes, "Cosplay Piano" will take you from the Red Waste (where Dany tickles ivories and dragons fly) to a brothel in King's Landing (where Tyrion grins at Shae, and the women are surprisingly clothed) to the tundra north of the Wall (where the video's version of Jon Snow could really use a new wig). Guess a sprawling series deserves a sprawling video tribute.
Tom Hardy rumored to be in talks to play Elton John: Five reasons he's perfect for the role
Most of you probably first met Tom Hardy in 2010's Inception, unless you're an avid consumer of British cinema, in which case perhaps you recognized him from 2008's Bronson. Then again, a select few of you Trekkies might even remember him from 2002's Star Trek: Nemesis. Regardless, now almost all of you identify him as Bane from 2012's The Dark Knight Rises. But a few years from now, we might all be calling him Sir Elton.
With five movies in the works for 2014 (including a highly anticipated Mad Max reboot) and a new rumor going around that he's being looked at to play Elton John in the upcoming biopic Rocketman, Hardy is hard at work on becoming one of Hollywood's most recognizable actors/puppy-lovers. And believe it or not, Bane might just be the perfect choice to play one of music's most iconic performers. Here's why: READ FULL STORY
'The Voice' goes country again -- Why last night's eliminations could be the show's downfall
After last night, The Voice is officially on it's way to the Top 6 and quickly falling into the all-too-familiar pattern of last season. With the shocking elimination of Team Adam's Sarah Simmons and Judith Hill — both of whom my colleague Adam Carlson and I had pegged for the final four — America has once again sided with Team Blake. Deja vu, anyone? READ FULL STORY
Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's emotional performance of 'Over You' pays tribute to tornado victims -- VIDEO
All the performances on last night's Voice results show were dedicated to the victims of the Oklahoma tornadoes, but no performance struck a chord with the audience quite like the first one of the night — Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert's stripped-down acoustic version of Lambert's hit "Over You."
Many Voice fans know the song after Cassadee Pope's breakthrough performance last season, but it was originally written by Shelton and Lambert in memory of his deceased brother. Last night, it reached a much larger number of people in the couple's home state. Watch the moving performance below. READ FULL STORY

Wildflower 'armours' itself against disease
10 September 2010
An unusual wildflower that accumulates metals in its leaves has been found to use them as a kind of 'armour' against bacterial infection.
Alpine pennycress (Thlaspi caerulescens) is a small plant in the mustard family that grows on metal-rich soils scattered around Britain and Europe, such as the sites of former mine workings. The plant is known to accumulate zinc, nickel and cadmium to very high concentrations in its leaves, but why it should do this has remained a mystery.
Now scientists from Oxford University have shown that when Thlaspi plants accumulate metals in their leaves they become resistant to attack by the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. maculicola. They report their findings in the journal PLoS Pathogens.
'Our results demonstrate that these plants are exploiting their metal-rich environment to armour themselves against disease,' said Dr Gail Preston of Oxford University's Department of Plant Sciences, co-author of the report. 'What we've found is a direct link between these high metal concentrations and resistance to bacterial infection.'
Helen Fones, the graduate student who carried out the experimental work, cultivated Thlaspi plants on progressively higher concentrations of zinc, nickel and cadmium and showed that all three metals were able to defend the plant against the pathogenic bacterium. By studying diverse strains of the bacterium, she was able to demonstrate a close relationship between the ability of bacteria to grow in the presence of high concentrations of metal and their ability to infect the plants.
'Previously, it has been difficult to explain why Thlaspi plants should accumulate such high concentrations of potentially toxic metals,' said Professor Andrew Smith of Oxford's Department of Plant Sciences, co-supervisor of the research. 'Our findings provide good evidence that, by accumulating metals, these plants benefit from enhanced protection against enemies such as pathogenic microorganisms and herbivores.'
The researchers also showed that bacteria surviving on Thlaspi plants on the site of a former lead–zinc mine in Wales had a higher tolerance for zinc than bacteria isolated from plants growing on normal soils. This indicates that both the plant and its pathogens show evidence of local adaptation to survival in metal-rich environments, and that pathogens can adapt to overcome plant defences based on metals. Dr Preston said: 'heavy metals may be part of an evolutionary 'arms race' between plants and the microorganisms that try to colonise them.'

True Coffee
Pricey but tasty
What we say:
True Coffee has a list of frappuccinos, lattes and other caffeinated concoctions long enough to put any Western cafe to shame.
However, don't be surprised if the price is also close to what you pay at home. True Coffee is very Westernised with sleek furniture, chatty baristas, and the fastest Internet connection in Vientiane, if not the whole country.
Their selection of gourmet pastries is drool-worthy, including tortes, cookies, and cheesecakes. It's not hard to spend $10 on just a snack here, and you might forget you're still in Laos. If you're traveling without a laptop, they have new computer terminals and even sell Apple products like iPods and MacBooks.

André Léon Marie Nicolas Rieu (born 1 October 1949) is a Dutch violinist, conductor, and composer best known for creating the waltz-playing Johann Strauss Orchestra. The name Rieu is of French Huguenot origin. He began studying violin at the age of five. His father, of the same name, was conductor of the Maastricht Symphony Orchestra. From a very young age he developed a fascination with orchestra. He studied violin at the Conservatoire Royal in Liège and at the Conservatorium Maastricht, (1968--1973). His teachers included Jo Juda and Herman Krebbers. From 1974 to 1977, he attended the Music Academy in Brussels, studying with André Gertler, getting his degree "Premier Prix" from the Brussels Royal Conservatory. At University he performed the Gold And Silver Waltz by Franz Lehár. Encouraged by the audience reaction he decided to pursue the waltz form. Rieu formed the Maastricht Salon Orchestra and performed as a violinist with the Limburg Symphony Orchestra. In 1987, he created the Johann Strauss Orchestra and his own production company. Since then, his melodramatic stage performances and rock-star demeanor have for some been associated with a revival of the waltz music category. André Rieu plays a 1667 Stradivarius violin.
Ne çdo tingull e ne çdo note, veç ty te kerkoj e shtrenjta ime, dhe mbi telat e kesaj violine, qe per ne po luan sot, do dridhet shpirti im, kur te embelat buzet e tua, me te miat do te harrohen.. ne qindra perqafime.....
The 2nd Waltz, one of the most popular compostions of this great Russian Composer. We're showing pictures of Russian Folk Dancers, not necessarily Waltz Dancers. Dmitri Shostakovich (1906 - 1975) was born in St. Petersburg (now Leningrad) and died in Moscow. His entire musical career was therefore spent in Russia The music of Shostakovich is quite distinctive. It is frequently quite classical in structure, yet not in a strict sense. It is also highly romantic in its way of delving deep into emotions, yet it will frequently use frivolity or a coarse, biting sarcasm to make its point. It's played by André Rieu and his orchestra.Video by Alfred with the help of Choy Hong (Jasmine) Grech, Mosta, Malta. © jasalf5959 - 2010 ===================================== Our Youtube Channels are: 1) jasalf5959 MASTER Link: (Malta related videos) www.youtube.com 2) malpen04 My Choice series 1 MASTER Link: (Music videos) www.youtube.com 3) malpen04 My Choice series 2 MASTER Link: (Music videos) www.youtube.com 4) malpen04 Miscellaneous MASTER Link: (Trip to Sicily & Non Malta and Music related) www.youtube.com

You can save a pretty penny by buying Forever stamps before Jan. 22, when the price of domestic first-class postage will increase from 44 to 45 cents. "If customers want to stock up, that's fine with us," says David Partenheimer, a spokesman for the U.S. Postal Service. Forever stamps were introduced in 2007 with one design, the Liberty Bell, and they were such a big hit with the public that now all new first-class stamps have no denomination and are good for the cost of a 1-ounce domestic letter. The stamps celebrate actors, politicians, music, sports — and love. Last May, the Postal Service put out the Garden of Love stamp, continuing the almost 40-year-old Love series.

Stop what you are doing.
Read those.
Right now.
I'll wait.
If you don't want to read, I'll explain the key bullet points, but please read them afterwords:
This is not "we didn't protect him enough."
This is not "the government screwed up some random detail or accidentally let his killer loose."
The 111th Military Intelligence had a team taking pictures of his balcony during the assassination.
They brought in a Special Forces 8-Man Sniper Team from the 20th.
Memphis Police withdrew their regular protection detail from him.
A jury of 12 people, six black and six white, found the United States Government guilty of conspiracy to commit murder.
YOUR GOVERNMENT. MY GOVERNMENT. THE GOVERNMENT OF, BY, AND FOR THE PEOPLE, SHOT AND KILLED DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING. And the media never reported the case.
MLK was ASSASSINATED. By a government YOU PAY FOR.
I hate those posts where someone tries to pressure you into reblogging. I almost never ask you to reblog.
This shit is important.
Reblog this. I don't care what kind of blog you have. I don't care what you normally talk about.
Reblog this.
holy shit
this is always on reblog
The problem with most of those sources is that they refer to each other. BUT, I do find this believable simply because it's on the King Center's web site, and they do provide an actual transcript of the trial.
This is fucked up.
Holy shit. I mean I really do NOT like the government but this… Wow.
This is a proven fact and we're on record affirming that this is how it happened. This certainly doesn't encourage people to become advocates for social justice, but we should do so regardless of possible consequences.

There might be more to bouncing back from a hand injury than simply handling a stick and working on getting the release back up to speed. At least that's the indication Tarasenko gave to Lou Korac, NHL.com's St. Louis Blues correspondent.
Tarasenko joking that playing Playstation has helped his rehab: "It's more important than playing piano. … Part of rehab." #stlblues
— Lou Korac (@lkorac10) April 15, 2014
While this may or may not be true, it's good to see that the talented forward has remained in good spirits throughout the process. This is the second consecutive season Tarasenko has had to deal with a tough injury. He missed a handful of games last season with a concussion and never reached the same level of play after returning.
A healthy Tarasenko would go a long way towards helping the Blues gear up for a Chicago Blackhawks team that will be getting both Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews back just in time for Game One. St. Louis has the horses to run for a game or two, but Chicago's depth could eventually dominate the series as it stretches on.
There's no timeline for Tarasenko's return, but it seems clear that he's getting closer and closer to lacing up the skates for the Blues once again.
