So it's 11am and you're in the office, busy at work. I don't know about you, but that's right about when I'm thinking, what should I do for lunch today? Now I have to tell you that I LOVE lunch! And not just because it's my first main meal of the day (I tend to skip breakfast) but because it's such a bargain. Most restaurants need a lunch service to fill their schedule out and I'm pretty sure that most don't make a heckuva lot of money at noon time. Typically you get nearly all the food for dinner at nearly half the price which means for me, cha-ching! Total bargain and for me, a great chance to enjoy a great meal. Easy access, quick service and great food in addition to parsimonious prices seals the deal for me! It's not a long, sit-down affair, lunch is about getting in and out, having a reasonably enjoyable meal and it's back to the workplace.
With $10 in your pocket there are plenty of choices in the Triangle for fresh and flavorful food. Out in Raleigh-Cary is one of my favorite lunch spots, the Hot Point Deli. Located conveniently on Buck Jones Road off of 1 South, Hot Point looks a bit like a converted pancake house. But don't let the bland exterior fool ya! Step inside and you'll immediately notice the hand-chalked menu with interesting gourmet food items and you know you've got something special here.
A catfish quesadilla, cuban sandwiches, individual pizzas and burritos round out the menu. Hot Point Deli puts a bit of a spin on most of their offerings, we're talking gourmet across the board. The Thanksgiving in a Bun sandwich is wonderful: foccacia bread, turkey, cranberry sauce and stuffing. Everything I've had at Hot Point has been fresh and unusually tasty. A seat out on the small patio out front means you can enjoy your lunch in the sunshine! And while at lunch you order at the counter, Hot Point Cafe switches over to table service for the evenings.
Further up north near Lake Boone Trail in Raleigh (and at several Durham locations) is Chubby's Tacos, my FAVORITE quick-Mex spot! Chubby's focus on high-quality ingredients for great Mexican food makes places like Moe's and Qdoba's an after-thought. Find Chubbys in the back of the plaza near Sushi-Thai, they've got a corner patio for fresh air dining. Order at the counter and don't miss the refrigerated case of Jarritos up front if you need a beverage. The line can get a bit long but it's perfect because Chubby's has got a LONG menu. And way too many delicious choices!
Chubby's menu features tacos at $2 and $3 ranging from barbacoa to grilled shrimp. Try one of their delicious tacos on corn or wheat tortillas. Their grilled tilapia taco is covered in a creamy sauce and spiked with onions, fantastic! Or their tacos al pastor: pork marinated in pineapple juice, yum! Or if you're really hungry, go for one of their massive burritos that will put you to sleep for the afternoon. Don't miss the salsa bar in back with a bunch of great spicy bling for your meal. Chubby's large choice of delicious fillings means you'll have to eat here for weeks to go through the menu. And their location near Rex Hospital off of I-440 is perfect for you medical workers on Blue Ridge and Lake Boone Trail!
Heading out west towards Durham in Five Points you'll find my favorite sandwich spot, Toast! And while there may be slightly better sandwiches, you won't find any better for the price. Toast focuses on local ingredients and yet all their lunch options are typically well under $10. Unfortunately because Toast is so darn good, the small space can get pretty crowded with a line to the door. Plan your visits accordingly! And yes, if you're catching a show at DPAC, a quick meal at Toast makes for a casual start to your evening. Order at the counter and go find a seat quick! And don't forget about the sidewalk seating outside.
The cheery turquoise walls highlight a very Italian menu full of eenies. Tramezzinni, panini, crostini. But there's nothing teeny about the food and flavors at Toast. They've got a wonderful chicken salad tramezzini which is made with garlicky aioli and comes with the bread crusts cut off, just like momma used to make! Add in a cup of soup for $2 and you've got an amazingly tasty and healthy lunch. The crostini with fresh mozzarella and pesto is FAN-tastic! Crisp, crunchy and luscious, I like to think this treat is healthy but it tastes ridiculously decadent. And yes, they serve beer and wine but we're talking lunch here so you probably can't imbibe, yet. Overall I can't get enough of Toast but neither can the rest of Durham! So be patient, it's a family-run paninoteca that's worth the wait.
And down in Chapel Hill you've got a couple of wonderful Asian lunch bargains: Merlion Restaurant in Southern Village and Jujube in Glen Lennox shopping center. Merlion is focused on flavorful food from Singapore, they do a great roti prata with chicken curry. A bit greasy but really delicious stuff. Or try their Char Kway Teow, stir-fried flat noodles with some soy, egg, shrimp, and sprouts. Merlion does a great rendition of upscale Singaporean street food in a comfy space.
Jujube Restaurant is at the high end of my lunch price range but they do some fantastic baguette sandwiches (chicken, pork or beef) and also have a great Asian bolognese dish. Braised pork and scallions over rice noodles makes for some wonderful comfort food. Service is spot-on and pleasant for this little eatery. And Jujube's funky and hip decor means you get some atmosphere with your lunch, a great little spot for a bite!
Even if you're short on time, most of these places will get you in and out quickly if you can avoid prime-time hours. My experience has been that people in the area are VERY punctual so just arriving at 11:45am or going a bit late at 12:45 should give you a short wait if any. And even if you have to wait a bit, these places are worth the effort. As much as I've done plenty of Quizno's and Subway sandwiches, sometimes you just need a civilized and tasty lunch. Because if you're in the middle of a busy day, there's nothing wrong with having a great meal and getting a bit of bon appetit for lunch!

This is actually my favourite of all the Liz Earle products I have tried, which I didn't expect.
I have tried various exfoliators and found them too harsh generally without making any difference to my skin.
I got this with a kit and found it feels lovely, isn't harsh and leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft. It doesn't shift really stubborn blackheads though but doesn't upset my rosacea either.
if you want a harsher exfoliator this isn't for you but you can use it more frequently than many. bit expensive to do this as its Ł11.75 for 70ml but lasts for ages as you don't need much. I think I would use this occasionally rather than the cleanse & polish.

Restaurant Critic Review: At the Naked Pirate you can eat in or take out seafood selections
The Naked Pirate Seafood Market on U.S. 1 could be easily missed. It's a small building, and the business doesn't keep long hours during the work week, so visits have to be well-timed.
It's a place with a lot of character, though — so when a friend of mine raved about their lobster rolls, I made a point to stop by.
With last weekend's Pirate Fest providing so many pirate sightings downtown, I half-expected to see people in costume as I stepped through the door.
The young staff members were helpful as I browsed cases of fresh seafood and a wide selection of interesting salads available to take home. Baby octopus, calamari, seaweed and citrus conch were accompanied by non-seafood offerings including olives and roasted peppers.
We tried some stuffed clams ($4 each) and conch fritters ($10.95 per lb). Both items I'd consider bringing to a party as an easy-to-warm-up appetizer.
Naked Pirate really works as a convenient stop for this kind of shortcut fare — pre-fried soft-shell crabs for $5 each, prepared at home with a simple piccatta sauce would be a quick but impressive treat for guests. They've even got desserts covered with mini tarts and cupcakes.
On the other end of the spectrum, a portion of the space is dedicated to the Up North Jerky Outlet, which sells packaged and by-the pound jerky in a variety of flavors.
While at Naked Pirate, you can enjoy deli sandwiches or the restaurant's seafood specialties. Their traditional lobster roll is piled high with a pound of tender Maine lobster meat mixed with celery on a buttery, grilled bun ($9.50). I can't say it was much to look at, but this is a quick bite at a seafood market, so I don't really expect five-star presentation.
Crab cakes are rarely firm enough to avoid getting lost in a bun, and this was the case with my guest's sandwich ($7.95). Without the bread, it was a good cake.
As a whole, the Naked Pirate is a good little place to pick up fresh fish and prepared food, and I see the restaurant side of it as a perk.

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

The spaceships have all been shot on film, and they are of excellent quality, as the above image shows. So if they redo all the VFX with crappy CGI, I won't buy it. The CGI in TOS-R was an enhancement over the blurry and noisy VFX. But CGI certainly won't be an enhancement over the TNG effects.
I probably wouldn't buy it if it wasn't reimagined with CGI. The model work is great for the age (and I'd like them as an option) but a lot of the model space scenes seem so empty compared to CGI renders. DS9's WOTW really pushed the model work to its limits.

Latest 'Star Wars: Episode 7′ Spoilers Will Ruin the Ending For You
Like every other entertainment site on the internet, we've done our fair share of reporting about the various rumored plot details and characters of 'Star Wars: Episode 7.' Naturally, all of these have been behind big spoiler warnings and we've always been careful to let readers make the decision to be spoiled or not. And that brings us to the most recent story detail to hit the internet ... and it's a big one. So big, that we're not even going to write about it. Instead, we're going to issue a warning.
'Dracula Untold' Reshoots Tie the Film Into Universal's Shared Monster Movie Universe
During Universal's horror golden age of the '30s and '40s, the studio's beloved monsters all existed in aesthetically similar movies. When they starting going into decline, they even started showing up in each other's films to team up and/or battle to the death. So it makes perfect sense for the Universal of 2014 to see potential in a shared cinematic universe of their iconic monsters and it looks like the upcoming 'Dracula Untold' will kick it all off.

'SNL' and Chris Pratt Tackle the NFL's Recent Problems and Scores a Comedy Touchdown
You don't have to be a sports fan to know that the NFL has come under fire in recent weeks for how it has handled (or failed to handle) its players committing all kinds of heinous crimes. Although this is a very serious matter that has football fans deeply troubled and concerned about the future of their favorite sport, it's certainly not above satire, which is where 'SNL' comes in.
'SNL' and Chris Pratt Create Their Own Marvel Movie Trailer
When you have 'Guardians of the Galaxy' star Chris Pratt guest hosting your season premiere of 'SNL,' you find time for a Marvel sketch. Much like how the show poked fun at 'The Avengers' when Jeremy Renner hosted, this episode found a very game Pratt participating in an amusing fake movie trailer that not only made fun of his space opera blockbuster, but Marvel Studios in general.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Maze Runner' Outpaces Liam Neeson's 'A Walk Among the Tombstones'
Young adult movies are big business. 'The Maze Runner' took over the box office this weekend, proving that the audience for films were young people in science fiction dystopias are forced into violent and terrible predicaments extends beyond the 'Hunger Games' franchise.
'King Kong' Prequel 'Skull Island' Nabs Tom Hiddleston and Jordan Vogt-Roberts as Director
The reveal of Legendary Pictures' 'Skull Island' was one of the few genuine surprises of this year's Comic-Con. The studio already had a teaser for the film set on the infamous island inhabited by King Kong, dinosaurs and other terrifying monsters, but it was lacking just about everything else. Now, those gaps are starting to get filled: Jordan Vogt-Roberts has signed on to direct, Tom Hiddleston will star, and the film itself will hit theaters on November 4, 2016.

Weekend Box Office Report: 'Guardians of the Galaxy' Reigns Over a Very Slow Weekend
There actually was a new film released this week. It's called 'The Identical' and it's a Christian-themed fable about what would have happened if Elvis Presley's stillborn twin brother had survived. Well, for reasons that should be obvious after reading that sentence, 'Guardians of the Galaxy' held onto the number one spot this weekend while 'The Identical' opened outside of the top 10, never to be heard from again.
An Insane New 4D Batman Roller Coaster is Heading to Six Flags
With Warner Bros. doubling down on 'Batman vs. Superman' and 'Justice League' in the next few years, it makes perfect sense that Six Flags parks would take advantage of the situation and start building new rides named after these iconic characters. And that brings us to Batman: The Ride, which will be opening in San Antonio's Six Flags: Fiesta Texas next year. In short: it looks insane.

Updated on June 26, 2015
The SAM API has a release of v3 of the standard API and release of v2 of the search API. The updated field references can be found here. Another new page which contains a better overview of the changes can be found in our Versioning document.
The latest version of our Data Dictionary is available for download which will give a deeper look into the SAM system and how it functions.
The SAM API is a RESTful method of retrieving public information about the businesses or individuals (referred to as "entities") within the SAM data set. The information can currently be retrieved on an entity-by-entity basis. The initial SAM API release was introduced in June 2014 and allowed users of the API to retrievely publicly available entity data. The next iteration of the API, released in fall 2014, provided the ability to search SAM entity data.
In addition to the entity information, we also provide status and progress information. This is allowing us to build our SAM Status Tracker. The status refers to the status of the entity's registration - whether they are working on their registration, waiting for a validation from the IRS or the DoD (CAGE), or are active, for example. The progress is most relevant for those who are working on their registration; it indicates whether a user has finished filling out different sections of their registrations, as well as the progress of their validations with external organizations such as the IRS or DoD. This should indicate how far along in the process a user is in completing the work they need to do in order to successful be registered in SAM.
Get started
We organized this site into four major areas.
- API basics introduces you to the operations offered by the API.
- API calls gives you a hands-on experience of those operations with an interactive console.
- Field reference lists and describes the type of information provided by the API.
- Feedback provides a forum for developers to share feedback and report problems.

Matt Doheny will host a fundraiser for fellow Republican Jim McClusky, a Supreme Court candidate who is in the middle of a fight among between the small counties of the north country and Onondaga County, the big, bad wolf.
Mr. Doheny, a soon-to-be Republican congressional candidate, will host the event on Sept. 7 at the Black River Valley Club on Washington Street from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tickets at $75 for an individual, and $125 for a couple.
Respond, if you please, to 232-4551.
Mr. McClusky is fighting to get on the Republican ballot in November's election. The state Supreme Court judicial district that we live in including Jefferson and Lewis counties, a smattering of smaller ones, plus Onondaga County. There's no formal statute that says the smaller counties get to have judges who reside in each county, but that's sort of the way it's always been. But a few Onondaga County attorneys are vying for seats — though none of the Onondaga County seats are open. That could leave Jefferson or Lewis counties without Supreme Court representation, meaning plaintiffs will have to travel further. It could also result in a dearth of lawyers in the area.

Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis Take Secret Trip to Bali!
Things are getting serious!
After three months of sneaking around, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are happily packing on the PDA -- and aren't afraid of putting their budding romance on display.
PHOTOS: Mila's super-sexy transformation
"Mila is throwing caution to the wind!" a source says of Kunis, 28, who held hands with new beau Kutcher, 34, while waiting in the ticket line at Hong Kong International Airport July 28 en route to a vacation in Bali. "She's having fun."
PHOTOS: How the celebs are spending their summer vacation
Kunis' change of heart surprises pals, the insider tells Us Weekly, since up until now, "she downplayed the significance of the relationship to her friends because they think she's too good for Ashton."
The former That '70s Show costars' romantic getaway came two days after the duo cozied up at the wrap party for the Steve Jobs biopic -- starring Kutcher as the late Apple founder -- at the Duplex in West Hollywood.
"They whispered and rubbed each other's thighs," says an eyewitness at the Jobs bash. "They snuggled all night!"
Despite their PDA-packed outings, Kutcher and Kunis are "not exclusive," counters another insider close to the couple, who are eager to keep things casual for the time being. "But they are hanging out and seeing where it's going."

Ohad Hecht | July 20, 2014 | Comments |
Marketers need to decide which is more important to them - acquiring new leads and potential customers, or retaining and nurturing the current customer base.
"To be or not to be?" asks Shakespeare's Hamlet.
For years digital marketers faced the same conundrum: "to buy or not to buy?" in reference to purchasing leads and prospects...also known as spamming (although hopefully you're in the "not to buy" camp).
Knowing how to spend your marketing budget with confidence is always a challenge. Where do I allocate the money so it makes most impact? How do I allocate the money in a way that I can show tangible results? These are the typical questions marketers ask themselves.
Of all the questions, the most critical to answer is do we invest good money in acquiring new customers, or do we focus on retaining the customers we have already acquired and personalize their experience? "To retain or acquire?" - this is the question.
And before I let you know the answer, let's look at what marketers are currently doing.
According to a survey by Econsultancy, 34 percent of the participants indicated that they will increase their investment in acquisition, while only 18 percent will focus on retention. If we look at content marketing strategies, one of the main goals is acquisition (71 percent of responders), and Forrester concurs: "Marketers obsess over acquisition. Even as the lines between marketing and customer experience blur, our survey respondents prioritize customer acquisition efforts over nurturing and deepening relationships with their most valuable and loyal customers."
Looking at what the others (not "the others" from Lost!) are doing, it is very clear that marketing budgets are over-focused on acquisition rather than retention.
If you're a regular reader of my columns, you'd be expecting me to start talking about increasing allocation of budgets to retention. And you would be right, this is exactly what I am going to do...
Here is an example to start illustrating my thinking:
Joe is an online shoe retailer who became really successful with his business. He uses Google and Facebook to advertise the branded shoes he has on offer. In a hyper-competitive branded-shoe industry, the customers are only looking at the prices they can easily compare with a simple search. So Joe needs to invest a lot of money to generate sales. Ninety-eight percent of his business is first-time buyers. With only 2 percent repeat buyers, his product costs are most likely to look like this:
Acquisition: $20.00
Shipping: $5.00
Product cost: $50.00
Profit margin: $15.00
Total: $100.00
With higher advertising costs and lower loyalty, he is seeing his acquisition costs spiking. With this example, and provided that advertising costs remains the same, he will need to sell 6,600 pairs of shoes for a profit of $100,000.
To prove my point, let's assume that 98 percent of his business will be focused on selling to clients he already acquired: He's profit margin grows to $35, as he is dropping his acquisition costs. In order to reach to a $100,000 profit he will now need to sell only 2,800 pairs of shoes (i.e. 58 percent less). This in turn will probably further help to decrease the G&A costs, and Joe will be able to pass on some of these savings to his customers.
I've recently argued that the role of the digital marketer is to sell, and here is a good example of a real impact on the company performance and margins that is directly attributed to the efforts of the marketer.
Continuing with this train of thought, it becomes clear that if you focus your efforts mostly on acquisition, you're actually working for your competitor who provides their client with a more individual customer experience, and making sure that their customers stay loyal.
If your start-up days are behind you and your business is established, chances are that growing your business will be cheaper and faster if you retain and sell to your existing client base. This is not to suggest that you need to abandon acquisition efforts completely, but you need to shift the focus to your existing clients.
If you are a start-up, then naturally your initial objectives should be to focus on new business acquisition and then as the customer base increases, start shifting the focus to retention.
But before I finish, a quick word of caution regarding ERFM: If you intend to use ERFM analysis on your database, be careful if you are focusing too heavily on acquisitions. You will find that most customers will be skewed to the right hand side of the lifecycle (inactive or churning clients) with much fewer customers in the center (loyal) and in the initial stages (first-time buyers).
Until next time, stay tuned.

Tractor-trailer driver cited after Vt crash
BENNINGTON — The driver of a tractor-trailer truck injured when his vehicle flipped and went through a guard rail and over an embankment on a treacherous stretch of Vermont Route 9 in Bennington is facing a criminal charge.
Vermont State Police said Friday that 49-year-old Willie J. Barnfield, of Stone Mountain, Ga., was cited on a charge of gross negligent operation of a motor vehicle after the Thursday afternoon crash.

The 2009 Cabo Verde PWA World Cup event organizer, Cabo Verde Investments along with their local advisor, Josh Angulo, have come to decisions on who will receive the organizer wildcards.
Three of the four wildcards have gone to local hotshots Mitu Monteiro, Djo Silva and Titik Lopes with the last remaining slot being given to windsurfing legend Francisco Goya.
Event spokesman Josh Angulo commented on the choice "Seeing all the requests for wildcards coming in from abroad both to the organizers and the PWA, I certainly wouldn't want to be in the position of the PWA board members in having to choose the 4 remaining slots.
On our side the decision was relatively easy as Djo, Mitu and Titik are the 3 hottest local guys and we by all means will continue to invest in and push our local youth.
The decision to issue Francisco a wildcard was also an easy choice. Francisco, a World Champion, proven Ponta Preta ripper and windsurf legend, he was the first international sailor on our wildcard list and as a country and event we await his presence and look forward to him once again bringing his incomparable style to Ponta Preta….. Welcome Francisco !"
So there you have it. The Organizer Wildcards are allotted for, now there remains only 4 more positions from the PWA. Let's see how they handle things on their side and it would be great o see a press release from PWA representative Rich Page on the PWA wildcard allotments….. stay tuned!

The world's biggest kite and windsurf race! Main Beach Langebaan was a kaleidoscope of colour and activity yesterday, as it played host to the world's biggest kitesurfing and windsurfing race – the Resolution Downwind Dash in conjunction with the Saldanha Beach Sailing Club and Gust Magazine.
The small town's lagoon was lit up with a splendor of kites and sails, as a record 320 sailors sped their way from Langebaan Main Beach through the 20 kilometer course to the finish at Dial rock, Saldanha.
The event, now in its 24th year, has grown from strength to strength each year leading it to be the biggest mixed race in the world. Event originator and race Director, Malcolm McGregor had no idea that what was once a couple of mates racing each other for a couple of beers would turn into a world class event.
The event is now sanctioned by both the International Windsurfing Association (IWA) and the International Kitesurfing Association (IKA) and points count towards the world slalom series.
Resolution proudly joined the event, along with support from Redbull and Voila Travel there was a handsome prize purse of R70 000 in cash and travel vouchers.
With the points and great prizes available, the event drew the attention of some of the worlds best sailors such as five times world freestyle champion Aaron Hadlow (UK), Sebastien Cattelan (FRA) – first sailor to ever break the 50knot barrier, Alex Caizergues (FRA) – outright world speed record holder, Sjoukje Bredenkamp (RSA) – outright women world speed record holder, world champion slalom windsurfer Ross Williams (UK), and Ben Moussilmani.
There were a host of international riders and a whole spread between professionals, families, amateurs, girls, guys, kids and characters like pirates and team Primi Piatti.
Everybody finished with smiles on their faces and the personal battles that went on amongst friends to see who would make it to the end first was enjoyed by all.
Malcolm McGregor, the race director, would like to thank all participants be they competitors, officials, rescue crew, sponsors and spectators for their support of the event.
Participants enjoyed the evening at the Club Mykonos marina terrace with a fish braai and live entertainment from Nungarin and Shy Guevaras. Special thanks to Resolution for making the event possible, to Malcolm and the Saldanha Beach Sailing Club, Red Bull, Hunters and the rest of the sponsors.

The former Oklahoma State player signed with the Heat in December as a free agent. He appeared in 22 games with Miami as a rookie, averaging 3.6 points and 2.3 rebounds. Harris also played in four games during the postseason, when the Heat ousted New York, Indiana, Boston and Oklahoma City for the franchise's second championship.

Blueberry Cupcakes
- Yield: Makes 12
Photography: Bryan Gardner
Source: Martha Bakes
For the Topping
- 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup dark-brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
For the Cupcakes
- 1 2/3 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 ounces blueberries (1 1/4 cups)
For the Icing
- 1 1/4 sticks unsalted butter, softened
- 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 2/3 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
- 1/4 cup high-quality blueberry jam, such as Hero, strained (3 tablespoons)
Make the topping: In a small bowl mix together granulated and brown sugars and cinnamon.
Make the cupcakes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack in upper third of oven. Line cups of a standard muffin tin with baking cups. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. With mixer on medium-high speed, beat together butter and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, sour cream, and vanilla, scraping down sides of bowl. Sprinkle blueberries with a little of the flour mixture; set aside. Reduce speed to low, and beat in flour mixture in 3 additions. Fold in blueberries.
Divide batter among baking cups. Add topping, pressing to adhere to batter. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs attached, about 25 minutes. Remove cupcakes from tin, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
Make the icing: Beat together butter and cream cheese with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and gradually beat in vanilla and confectioners' sugar. Raise speed to medium-high, and beat 1 minute. Spoon jam on top of icing, and without stirring, spoon icing into a disposable pastry bag. Snip off a 3/4-inch opening in tip, and pipe swirled mounds of icing on top of each cupcake. Although best if eaten immediately, cupcakes can be refrigerated up to 6 hours and brought to room temperature 45 minutes before serving.

Sam O'Shea told his mother Angela that he wanted to take the 'green' option and ride the two miles to St Paul's Primary School, in Portsmouth, Hampshire.
However, staff told Sam and Mrs O'Shea that she would have to follow him to school and pick up his bike because there was nowhere to store it.
Teachers also told parents the roads near the school were too dangerous for children to ride on.
Angela, 43, from Port Solent, near Portsmouth, said: "Cycling is a fantastic way of getting to school.
"We mollycoddle our children far too much by taking them from door to door - we are not preparing them for the future.
"I was astounded by the school's decision and I am deeply offended that all the feedback from the school implies that by wanting my son to cycle to school I am putting the lives of children at risk."
Sam said: "I love cycling and do it all the time with my dad."
Head teacher Fran Chapman defended the school's stance and said it promoted child safety.
She said: "The road outside the school is a very dangerous place. At the beginning and the end of the day it gets extremely congested.
"There are plans to make the road one way in the near-future so we can look at it again then."
Chairman of governors Janet Lynch claimed the school's stance was backed by the city council.
She added: "We would love to be able to say yes, but at the moment it just isn't safe enough."
Local councillor David Horne said: "It's a great school but on this occasion I think that they could have been a little bit more proactive.
"I am very disappointed that a blanket ban is their solution."
The school was criticised by pro-cycling campaigners who claimed its approach was 'behind the times'.
Cherry Allan, from the Cyclists Touring Club, said: "It is not legal for the school to ban cycling to school and by refusing to allow Sam to store his bike they are in essence banning it.
"By doing this the school is being bang out of order. The only thing Sam could do at the moment is lock his bike up outside the school, but that is not ideal.
"Cycling is a really good activity for children and if the parents are happy for their son or daughter to cycle to school then the school should be as well.
"The school complains about the road being too dangerous but let's not forget the school will be generating a lot of that traffic itself.
"It is a ridiculous situation and deeply disappointing."
Mike Dobson, of the Portsmouth Cycle Forum, called on the governors to make a U-turn.
He said: "The government is very concerned about obese children and here we have a child wanting to get exercise.
"We are certainly surprised that the school is taking this view."

Aronofsky's Wolverine film title announced (3/17/11--Aronofsky quits)

I assume that because Duncan Jones directed "Source Code" and we've been talking about "Mute" in that thread. Just seems logical to me to have brought up "Mute" there rather than here since this isn't dominated with Jones discussion. Like I said though I seriously doubt he'll accept any offer from Fox. I like to think that Duncan wants prime control over his projects and it's pretty clear that Fox doesn't want to give up their control over these films.

Electricity has always been a field for the sanguine therapeutist and too often a disappointment to the conservative judicious practitioner. High hopes raised by flattering reports of its efficiency have been again and again overthrown by the hard lessons of actual experience and some, like a distinguished German neurologist, have even gone so far as to hold that in the vast majority of cases its good effects have been merely those of psychic impressions, thus practically relegating it to the class of suggestive medicine. Methods of its employment— the Apostoli treatment for myomata for example—have been a temporary craze, to be almost entirely forgotten in a very few years. When d'Arsonval showed some years ago that currents of very high potential might be used on human beings with perfect safety, hope ran high for the eventual discovery of effective electrical treatment. It proved as disappointing as all previous methods of

#1090 closed defect (bug) (fixed)
list_author() parameter not being followed if admin account not called admin
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
The Codex lists the usage of the list_athor() tag as this:
< ?php list_authors(optioncount, exclude_admin,
show_fullname, hide_empty,
'feed', 'feed_image'); ? >
The "exclude admin" option will not exclude admin if you change the Nickname of the admin to anything else but admin. This should not be as it should only exclude the userlevel of 10 (that being the admin account).
Attachments (1)
Change History (12)
comment:1 @CanuckKev — 11 years ago
- Patch set to No
Use the tag as such:
< ?php list_authors(,TRUE,); ? >
And the admin will be excluded on the list. Now change the "Admin" Nickname to anything other than admin, and it appears in the author list.
comment:2 @CanuckKev — 11 years ago
Sorry, tag should be list_authors()....
comment:3 @Kafkaesqui — 11 years ago
"This should not be as it should only exclude the userlevel of 10 (that being the admin account)."
That would work only if the user level on one or more accounts has not been changed to 10 as well (through the db). I believe the possible best option is to exclude based on user login ('admin').
comment:4 @CanuckKev — 11 years ago
Should there only be one level 10 admin? A level 9 user is capable of doing everything except assigne ownership of pages or posts to a level 10, and you can't upgrade a level 9 to 10 user via normal means.
comment:5 @Kafkaesqui — 11 years ago
That's up to the devs to decide, as they'd need to find a way of limiting it. But I believe the goal with the 'exclude_admin' argument was to hide just the original admin account, and not all possible admins. That can be done by the login name or ID.
comment:6 @MC_incubus — 11 years ago
- Resolution changed from 10 to 70
Neither the login ('admin') nor the ID (1) nor the level (10) can be changed without hacking the database.
There's really no reason to change any of these things. Level 8 and 9 accounts have just as much access as the level 10 admin account. See here: http://codex.wordpress.org/User_Levels
comment:7 @CanuckKev — 11 years ago
MC_incubus, I agree completely.
So does it not make sense to have the tag base it on Userlevel, and not an arbitrary name that can be changed causing the tag to not behave as intended?
comment:8 @Kafkaesqui — 11 years ago
There's one thing you can't do at 9: edit posts created by the admin account.
'exclude_admin' runs into problems when tied to nickname, so it should be aimed at something unique and permanent; it's more likely the admin ID/login will go untouched than the user levels for other accounts.
comment:9 @MC_incubus — 11 years ago
I'd go with user_login.
I'm submitting a patch that makes that change.
comment:10 @MC_incubus — 11 years ago
- Owner changed from anonymous to rboren
- Status changed from new to assigned
comment:11 @ryan — 11 years ago

Imagine if your computer only allowed you to see one line at a time, no matter what you were doing reading e-mail, looking at a Web site, doing research. That's the challenge facing blind computer users today. But new research from North Carolina State University is moving us closer to the development of a display system that would allow the blind to take full advantage of the Web and other computer applications.
"Right now, electronic Braille displays typically only show one line of text at a time. And they're very expensive," says Dr. Neil Di Spigna, a research assistant professor at NC State and co-author of a paper describing the research. In order to develop a more functional, and affordable, tool that would allow the blind to interface with their computers, Di Spigna and his colleagues are working to develop a full-page, refreshable Braille display. Braille uses a series of raised dots to represent letters and numbers, allowing blind people to read.
Such a display would also translate images into tactile displays, effectively mapping pixels in an image and allowing the full-page Braille display to represent the images as raised dots.
The researchers have developed a concept called a "hydraulic and latching mechanism," which would allow the development of such a display system. The mechanism would be made of an electroactive polymer that is very resilient and inexpensive, when compared to current Braille display technologies. "This material will allow us to raise dots to the correct height, so they can be read," says Dr. Peichun Yang, a postdoctoral research associate at NC State and co-author of the paper. "Once the dots are raised, a latching mechanism would support the weight being applied by a person's fingers as the dots are read. The material also responds quickly, allowing a reader to scroll through a document or Web site quickly."
Earlier this month, the researchers presented their findings on the hydraulic co

Hydrogen sulphide has been found by scientists to play a key role in the regulation of blood pressure - paving the way for improved cardiovascular treatment.
Researchers at the University of Maryland have found that hydrogen sulphide, which is produced by an enzyme in blood vessels, acts to relax the structures and thereby reduces blood pressure.
According to Dr Solomon Snyder, a Johns Hopkins neuroscientist and co-author of the study, this discovery could lead to the development of new treatments for cardiovascular diseases.
"Now we know hydrogen sulphide's role in regulating blood pressure, it may be possible to design drug therapies that enhance its formation as an alternative to the current methods of treatment for hypertension," he commented.
Hydrogen sulphide isn't the only gas used by the body to regulate blood pressure, and Dr Rui Wang of Lakehead University in Ontario has emphasised that nitric oxide also plays a key role in this area.
However, he believes that both gases are equally important in the process.
'Nature has added on layer upon layer of complexity to provide a better and tighter control of body function - in this case, of blood pressure," he confirmed.
The smell of hydrogen sulphide is similar to that of rotten eggs.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).
