Editorial Reviews
Barnes & Noble StaffLars, an endearing young polar bear, wakes up to find that the ice he was sleeping on is floating south. He reaches a tropical land with no snow or ice, but amazing new colors! Though there is much to see and do, Lars gets homesick. His new friends arrange to get Lars back home, where he is happily reunited with his anxious parents.
Publishers Weekly - Publisher's Weekly``It was a big day for Lars''-bigger than he imagined, in fact, as the polar bear cub gets separated from his father and embarks on a fanciful journey. Ages 5-8. (Sept.)
Children's Literature - Marilyn CourtotA little polar bear named Lars lives at the North Pole. His father taught him to swim and catch fish, but one night they were separated and Lars ends up in the tropics. Aided by Henry the hippo, Lars hitches a ride back home with a friendly whale, and there he is reunited with his dad. Aside from the total improbability of the story and the fact that male bears are not involved in raising their offspring, the story of separation and reunion will resonate with kids. They will understand Lars distress and share his joy when he returns safely home. The story and drawings have been repackaged in board book format. 1999 (orig.
Children's Literature - Barbara B. DisckindFriendship and courage tell the story of Lars, a little polar bear who rescues a hare named Hugo from a deep snowy hole. Quick friends, the two play games. Yet when Hugo is too scared to follow Lars down a steep hill, Lars nicknames him "scaredy-hare." When a fierce snowstorm rages around them, they cannot find their way home. And then the curious polar bear gets trapped in a research station and becomes a "scaredy-bear." Hugo overcomes his own fear to rescue his friend. An "Easy-to-Read Book."
Children's Literature - Sheree Van VreedeEven creatures at the North Pole get lonely. One day, Lars, a little polar bear, discovers Hugo, a little hare, stuck down a deep hole. After Lars rescues Hugo, they become fast friends, running and racing throughout the miles of snow. When Lars gets stuck at a polar station, it is Hugo's turn to do the rescuing. The two soon discover that they are good company for one another. This is an endearing picture book, with soft-colored illustrations that help give a very cold place a warm feel.
School Library JournalGr 2-4-- Set at the North Pole, this is a gentle beginning reader about Lars, a polar bear who comes upon a little hare in need of rescue. Hugo has somehow gotten himself stranded at the bottom of a deep hole. Lars kicks down a pile of snow that allows Hugo to climb out, and together the new friends set off to find Hugo's home. When they spot a car (with caterpillarlike ``wheels''), they know that they are near the research station. The two of them explore and Lars soon finds himself inside, having fallen through a hole in the roof. It is now Lars's turn to be rescued, and the pair become life-long friends. Other than the snowy terrain, the story could take place anywhere, and this friendship is not unlike that of Lobel's ``Frog and Toad'' (HarperCollins). The softly colored illustrations will help readers comprehend the plot and the story's fast-moving action. Those who have emerged from the decoding stage will find this predictable story just right for reinforcing their reading skills. --Sharron McElmeel, Cedar Rapids Community Schools, IA
Kirkus ReviewsLittle Polar Bear And The Brave Little Hare (32 pp.; PLB Nov. 1; 0-7358-1011-7; PLB 0- 7358-1012-5): Lars (Little Polar Bear, Take Me Home!, 1996, etc.) gains a new friend in his latest adventure. In his trademark pink, purple, and blue pastel-colored arctic landscape, Lars saves Hugo, a nervous hare, from a hole. As fast friends they race, get caught in a storm, snuggle up against one another for warmth, share a picnic, and find their way home, but not before Hugo gets to show his own courage by getting Lars out of a jam. Such teamwork and fond friendship will win readers' hearts while the falling snow and expressive faces will dazzle their eyes. (Picture book. 4-7)
From the PublisherChildren's Literature review of The Little Polar Bear in it's original picture book edition:
"This is an endearing picture book, with soft-colored illustrations that help give a very cold place a warm feel.

Little Polar Bear based on 0 ratings. 3 reviews.
Lars is a young polar bear who lives in the Arctic and is out hunting with his father. That night, they make piles of snow to protect themselves from the wind. But during the night, the ice begins to crack and Lars's piece breaks off. When he wakes up, he is all alone in the middle of the sea, and as the temperature grows warmer, his piece of ice is melting. He manages to climb on top of a floating barrel; then a storm hits, and he keeps drifting until he comes to a tropical island where he meets a hippopotamus named Henry and an eagle named Marcus. They are nice, but Lars wants to go home. How can Henry and Marcus help Lars? And will the little polar bear ever see his father again? Several years ago we rented for our weekly family video a full-length 2001 animated Warner Brothers movie The Little Polar Bear based on this book written and illustrated by Dutch author Hans de Beer, who was born in 1957. Of course, the film version is a lot different with many more plot features than are contained in the simple children's picture book, which is a lovely story for youngsters about going different places and experiencing new things but desiring to get back with family. It is well told with bits of subtle humor and detailed pastel illustrations. A board book edition (1999) is available for toddlers, but be forewarned that it is severely abridged, a fact that is not clearly indicated on the back of the book. Other "Little Polar Bear Adventures" by de Beer are Ahoy There, Little Polar Bear; Little Polar Bear Finds a Friend; Little Polar Bear and the Brave Little Hare; Little Polar Bear and the Husky Pup; Little Polar Bear and the Big Balloon; Little Polar Bear and the Reindeer; and Little Polar Bear and the Whales.
this book is an excellent book to read to your children.

Quantum of SolaceDirector: Marc Forster
View All Available Formats & Editions
A devastating betrayal sends James Bond from Australia to Italy and South America on a mission of vengeance that pits the suave super-spy against a powerful businessman with diabolical intentions. Betrayed by Vesper, 007 (Daniel Craig) suppresses the urge to make his latest mission personal as he teams with M (Judi Dench) to interrogate Mr. White (Jesper Christensen). It soon becomes apparent that the organization behind the blackmailing of Vesper is more powerful than Bond and M had previously anticipated, and after discovering forensic evidence that links an MI6 traitor to a bank in Haiti, Bond immediately sets out to gather more intelligence. Once in Haiti, a case of mistaken identity leads Bond into the company of the ravishing Camille (Olga Kurylenko), a dangerous beauty with her own vendetta. It's Camille who leads Bond to a ruthless businessman named Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), who is soon revealed to be the mastermind of a powerful but clandestine organization. Greene is conspiring to corner the market on one of the world's most precious natural resources, and in order to make that happen he has forged a deal with an exiled general named Medrano (Joaquin Cosio). By enlisting the aid of his many associates and using his vast resources to force contacts within the CIA and the British government into bending to his will, Greene plans to overthrow the current regime of a Latin American country and hand control over to General Medrano in exchange for a parcel of land that appears barren on the surface, but actually houses a natural resource that will make Greene the most powerful man on the planet. But Bond's mission to uncover the culprit who blackmailed Vesper and prevent Dominic Greene from exerting his will on the entire world won't be easy, because now everyone from the CIA to the terrorists and even M are out to get him.

After Sean Connery, Daniel Craig is the best James Bond. A new Bond movie is (finally) in the works now. Until its release, Quantum of Solace is always fun!
Good sequel. Feels a bit like the Bourne movie. As an action film its really good.
This was an INCREDIBLE film. Daniel Craig is definetly a Bond for the books. Even if it wasnt as good as Casino Royale, its prequel, it still was great. Dominic Greene was the most realistic villan of any film series, almost equivilant of Le Chiffe! Go see this film.
Like many people, I grew up with a dark haired James Bond full of gizmos and cheeky one-liners. Somewhere into Pierce Brosnan's run as Bond I lost all interest in a series that, to me, had become a joke (not unlike Joel Schumacher's take on Batman). Then Casino Royale came out. Bond was suddenly believable and in my opinion Daniel Craig delivers the BEST Bond to date. The storyline, script, acting and visuals, everything about Casino Royale was phenomenal. Then Marc Forster got his hands on the next movie. The main redeeming qualities of QoS are the still top-notch acting abilities of Craig as well as the brief, but important, part played by Giancarlo Gianni (Mathis). Now for the bad: This movie is essentially one long action scene. Action scenes are great, don't get me wrong, but when every little thing results in a car/plane chase, shoot out, what-have-you; you know you're missing a storyline. Casino Royale set the stage for what would ideally be a very powerful and terrifying criminal organization; represented by the chilling Le Chiffre (expertly portrayed by Mads Mikkelsen). Quantum takes that organization and practically castrates it. Forster just seemed to lack the level of grit and darkness that really made Le Chiffre's employers so terrifying. Also, Mathieu Amalric as Dominic Green is almost laughable. He is one of the worst villains in the franchise's history (Just listen to his "battlecry" when he attacks Bond with an axe at the end and you'll understand). Quantum of Solace is important to watch because it shows that even when a good background has been setup and there is a great cast, a bad director and writer can really destroy a movie.
Great sequel..can't wait for the next one...this one left open the search for Mr. White! Daniel Craig is exceptional as 007 and rates up there with Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan. Craig's Bond is more gritty. I do miss Q but that was getting a little too farfetched. Love Judi Dench as M.
I like this movie becaue I think that Daniel Craig makes a great James Bond The aerial and automotive stunts were spetacular and I love it how in the end sequence at the fiery battle they made the villan for an instant look truely insane
From the absolutely awful opening song, to the none to soon end, this latest in the Bond franchise is a disaster. There are no gadgets, no Q, no tricked out Aston Martin, no humor, a very lightweight villain, and no moments of Bondian levity. This is a dark movie, in which Daniel Craig simply kills people; that is the plot in toto. Unfortunate too, is that the second half of the film takes place in exotic, glamourous, exciting......Bolivia; not only that, the finale takes place at a fuel cell run luxury hotel ....in the middle of the desert. Yes the hotel is all by itself out in the middle of nowhere. The directing is poor, too many quick cuts, and close shots. Dame Dench and Mr Giannini characters seem to be inserted as an afterthought. The action scenes are adequate, though inexplicably the cameraman loses a crashing car as it goes over a cliff, in the opening scene. Finally, to my fellow reviewers: you are way to generous in your reviews, if this were any other film series, this be a franchise killer.
For you folks reading this in England, don't worry. That grinding noise you hear is not an earthquake, it is only Ian Fleming spinning in his grave. The producers of this movie seem to think that stringing chases (car, foot, boat, and even airplane) together with lots of explosions doth a movie make. I obviously disagree. Craig is a good bond (third best after Connery and (yes) Lazenby) but has no script to work from. The producers need to review the first 3 Bond movies and work from there. Hopefully. There is no direction to go from here buy up. Personally, I regret wasting the four bucks it cost to rent it.
Very fun to watch The action sequences were incredible. The new Bond Girl (Olga) is hot. The plot was weak. It wasn't as good as Casino Royale which was more exciting. The story kept you hooked. Quantum is too short! The story had many flaws, and wasn't as suspenseful and exciting, but the action was great! One fight scene after the next. The direction was good, and the climax and car chase were brilliantly executed. Casino's still the best. Daniel Craig's performance is just too awesome to put in words. He's my role model since Layer Cake. Olga is the best Bond girl, Matthew Amaleric is good but forgettable, Judi Dench is just incredible, and the supporting cast were great.
You'll need to have memorized Casino Royale (I did) or just seen it right before this one, or else you will be completely lost. If you were a fan of the last one this is essentially more of the same, you'll have fun. In the context of character development and plot, this whole movie is just a long epilouge to Casino Royale. It embelishes on things already established in the previous installment, and sets us up for a nice "Game On" status going into the next movie. Doesn't stand on it's own, but as an episode of what will be a bigger saga it's a nice morsel.
skip it and save your money. Where have you gone James, James Bond.
The only issue we had with this movie is that we've had to watch it twice to catch all the plot twists and understand the connections with Casino Royale. Will watch again with Casino Royale first. Will watch over and over
Keeping in sync with Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace continues the exploration of the James Bond character. The movie follows the original concept that Ian Fleming created over 50 years ago. The action is fast paced and the plot moves along briskly.

East Bengal will aim to continue their winning form while appearing in their first home match of the I-League, against Pune FC, at Kolkata's Salt Lake Stadium, on Monday.
The third round match comes after the festive break which has allowed the home side substantial rest and time to regroup. In contrast, Pune FC will be playing their first away match after two successive wins at home.
East Bengal coach Trevor James Morgan echoed the same confidence after the team's practice at their home ground on Sunday.

BIG Replaces Foster, Unveils Plans for 2 World Trade Center
BIG has revealed plans for the fourth and final skyscraper planned for the World Trade Center site - the 2 World Trade Center (2 WTC) - confirming rumors that the Danish architect has replaced Norman Foster as the project's architect.
As announced by WIRED, the controversial take over is the result of James Murdoch's distaste for Foster's decade-old scheme and preference for a more integrated workplace. Though the foundation of Foster's building has already been built, the BIG scheme will now be realized and become the new headquarters of Rupert Murdoch's media companies, 21st Century Fox and News Corp.
Designed as seven unique building stacked on top of each other, the stepped 2 WTC tower will rise 1,340 feet - a height that would make it Manhattan's third-tallest building if built today.
Watch Bjarke Ingels explain the concept in a video, after the break.
Renzo Piano on the Whitney Museum and the Value of Public Space
Throughout his career, Renzo Piano has designed dozens of museum buildings becoming the most prolific museum designer of our time. Yet, it has been some time since one of his designs has been as widely discussed and analyzed as his latest, the Whitney Museum in New York. In this interview, originally published on The Value of Architecture as "A House for Freedom: an Interview with Renzo Piano," David Plick speaks with Piano about the many inspirations of the Whitney Museum, from the previous Whitney Museum by Marcel Breuer to the neighboring High Line, the city on one side and the river on the other.
Renzo Piano is the great champion of public space. Whether the visitors and citizens of the city are aware of it or not, he improves their quality of life by sharing with them a living space designed specifically for the cultivation and dispersion of ideas and the enrichment of civic life. He's the architect who cares about the individual's experience of a building, who cares about how people interact with the space, and how the space then interacts with the world. At the Whitney Museum of American Art, much like the Centre Pompidou, or Beaubourg as he would say, he showed this by including a large area in front—a "piazza" he calls it—for people to meet, congregate, chat, and even loiter. He's somehow simultaneously innovative and selfless. And because of this, he can masterfully fuse form and function, creating beauty for himself because he loves it and thinks it will save people, yet it all means nothing to him if he can't share in this emotion with others.
Video: Tadao Ando on Designing His First New York Building
"A living space should be a sanctuary. It has to be a place where you can reflect on your life." - Tadao Ando
NOWNESS has released a new video, this time interviewing the legendary Japanese architect Tadao Ando about his first New York building: Ichigoni 152. Planned to replace a parking garage on the corner of Kenmare and Elizabeth Street in Manhattan's Nolita, the seven-story, seven-residence building aims to embody the energy of living in New York, while maintaining its role a "quite" and "sensitive" place of refuge for its inhabitants. "I would like to create something that only a Japanese person could do," says Ando. "It's about sensitivity."
Video: Pat Vale's Drawing Time-Lapse Brings NYC to Life
Back in 2012, we found "Empire State of Pen," an amazing video of London-based artist and animator Patrick Vale's drawing of Manhattan from the perspective of the Empire State Building. Now, Vale has taken a different perspective of the city, this time traveling a bit farther uptown to the Rockefeller Center area. Vale's new drawing looks south, with the Empire State Building in the center, and the Freedom Tower in the background. To the east you can see the Chrysler Building, and to the west lies the Bank of America Tower in the Times Square area.
Vale started the drawing in December of 2014, when he spent an afternoon in -15 degree weather sketching and taking pictures, which he then took back to his studio to create the piece. The whole process took over a month to complete. Watch Vale's drawing come to life in the time-lapse video above, and view images of his illustration after the break.
Video: Renzo Piano Reveals the Story Behind the Whitney Museum on Charlie Rose
Said to be the most long-awaited museum of the 21st century, the new Whitney Museum of American Art by Renzo Piano officially opened its doors in New York this May after a 30 year endeavor to expand its capacity. An unusual scenario, Charlie Rose sat down with Piano and the museum's director Adam Weinberg to discuss the "remarkable story" behind the expansion and how its design incorporates, what Piano believes to be, seven elements that represent the essence of architecture: social life, urbanity, invention, construction, technology, poetry and light.
We've provided a clip of the talk above. Watch the full 30-minute discussion, after the break.
10 Highlights from Guardian Cities' "History of Cities in 50 Buildings"
All good things must come to an end, and Guardian Cities' excellent "History of Cities in 50 Buildings" series is sadly no exception, with only a few more left to be published before they hit 50. The whole series is definitely worth the read, bringing in the best of academic and architectural writing from guest authors and the Guardian's own Cities team, but if you're strapped for time - and if you're an architect, it's fairly likely that's true - we've rounded up 10 highlights from the list to get you started.

Brooklyn Academy of Music Showcases 5 Murals by Michael Graves
Brooklyn Academy of Music is showcasing five murals by the late Michael Graves as part of the institution's permanent visual art collection. All completed in 1974, the paintings were originally commissioned by Charles Gwathmey - one of the New York Five, along with Graves. And, as the New York Times reports, their "heightened use of color and ornamentation" portray a "general shift away from minimalism." Read more about the murals, here.

Bringing together an extensive catalogue of images from the library's Milstein Collection, OldNYC organizes photographs geographically, allowing users to view images specific to individual blocks and streets.
The project is also collaborative, asking visitors on the site to comment on photographs with "what's there now, what's changed, and what's stayed the same." Users can edit or add to captions on the back of each of the photos, creating a personal element in the latest retelling of New York's vibrant history.

Olafur Eliasson To Bring LEGO Installation "The Collectivity Project" To The High Line
As part of their series of "Panorama" exhibits being presented this year, Friends Of The High Line have announced that they will host Olafur Eliasson's installation, "The Collectivity Project" from May 29th until September 30th this year on the High Line at West 30th Street. The installation, which has previously traveled to Tirana, Oslo, and Copenhagen, features an interactive imaginary cityscape made of over two tons of white LEGO bricks, with visitors invited to design, build and rebuild new structures as they see fit.
In a twist to the installation's usual presentation, High Line Art has invited high-profile architects who are working in the vicinity of the High Line to contribute one "visionary" LEGO design for the installation's opening, with BIG, David M. Schwarz Architects, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, James Corner Field Operations, OMA New York, Renzo Piano Building Workshop, Robert A.M. Stern Architects, Selldorf Architects, SHoP, and Steven Holl Architects all contributing one building which the public will then be able to adapt, extend or work around.
AD Classics: Austrian Cultural Forum / Raimund Abraham
Before the impossibly "super-thin" tower became ubiquitous on the Midtown Manhattan skyline, Raimund Abraham's Austrian Cultural Forum challenged the limits of what could be built on the slenderest of urban lots. Working with a footprint no bigger than a townhouse (indeed, one occupied the site before the present tower), Abraham erected a daring twenty-four story high-rise only twenty-five feet across. Instantly recognizable by its profile, a symmetrical, blade-like curtain wall cascading violently toward the sidewalk, ACFNY was heralded by Kenneth Frampton as "the most significant modern piece of architecture to be realized in Manhattan since the Seagram Building and the Guggenheim Museum of 1959." [1]
Please Touch the Art: Jeppe Heine's "Labyrinth NY" Installed in Brooklyn
For the next year, visitors at New York's Brooklyn Bridge Park will have the chance to interact with "Please Touch the Art", an exhibition of works by Danish artist Jeppe Hein. Playful, inventive, and immediately striking, Hein's work engages audiences as "active participants," inviting spontaneity and user interaction. Curated by Nicholas Baume, the exhibition contains three bodies of work by Hein: the soaring water jets of Appearing Rooms, the sixteen bright red benches of Modified Social Benches, and the reflective vertical planks of Mirror Labyrinth NY.
The exhibition is a project of New York City's Public Art Fund, a non-profit organization responsible for numerous free exhibitions offering "powerful experiences with art and the urban environment".

Work Begins on Steven Holl's Hunters Point Library in Queens
Construction has commenced on Steven Holl Architects' Hunters Point Community Library in Queens, New York. Rising along the shoreline on the city's East River near a cluster of newly built high-rise condominiums, the 22,000 square-foot (6,705 meter) library aims to provide a community-centric public space and park to the increasingly privatized Long Island City waterfront.
Watch Herzog & de Meuron's 56 Leonard Take Shape in New York
Herzog & de Meuron's 56 Leonard is taking shape in New York. Due to top out this summer, the 60-story condominium has become known as the "Jenga tower" for its cantilevered glass facade. Upon its completion in 2016, the 821 foot-tall (250 meter) Tribeca building will be comprised of 145 residences and will feature a Anish Kapoor sculpture at its base. Check out the Rob Cleary time-lapse above to view the building's progress over the last year.

Beset by malicious worms after failing to convince enough server administrators to take its out-of-band Security Bulletin, MS08-067, seriously, Microsoft is taking computer security to the streets: It has formed a cybersecurity posse to dismantle the Conficker/Downadup worm's infrastructure and has offered a $250,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the outbreak.
Microsoft warned last October that a vulnerability in its Server service could be exploited by a worm. Cybercriminals heard that warning and made the threat real, infecting as many as 9 million computers by mid-January. At that time, Qualys CTO Wolfgang Kandek estimated that between 25% and 30% of vulnerable systems remained unpatched.
And the problem continues more or less unabated today. Symantec said in the past five days it has seen an average of almost 500,000 infections per day with W32.Downadup.A and more than 1.7 million infections per day with W32.Downadup.B.
Jose Nazario, manager of security research for Arbor Networks, in a blog post on Thursday, called Conficker/Downadup a "savage Windows worm."
The total number of machines infected at any given time varies as a consequence of disinfection efforts. But rest assured that the number represents a very large botnet.
So it is that on Thursday, Microsoft announced a partnership with technology companies, academic organizations, and Internet infrastructure companies to fight the worm in the wild. Its partners in this worm hunt include ICANN, Neustar, VeriSign, CNNIC, Afilias, Public Internet Registry, Global Domains International, M1D Global, AOL, Symantec, F-Secure, ISC, researchers from Georgia Tech, Shadowserver Foundation, Arbor Networks, and Support Intelligence.
Together, the coalition is working to seize Internet domains associated with the worm.
"The best way to defeat potential botnets like Conficker/Downadup is by the security and domain name system communities working together," said Greg Rattray, ICANN's chief Internet security adviser, in a statement. "ICANN represents a community that's all about coordinating those kinds of efforts to keep the Internet globally secure and stable."
In a phone interview, Kevin Haley, director of security response at Symantec, said that there had been a lot of independent efforts to deal with the worm. The time was right, he said, to tackle it as a community.
According to Symantec, researchers have reverse-engineered the algorithm used to generate a daily list of 250 domains that the worm depends on to download updates. Armed with that knowledge, the coalition is taking control of the domains registered through coalition partners and using them to log and track infected systems. The group also is investigating domains overseen by registrars that aren't part of the coalition, though it's not clear how much leverage can be applied in such cases.
The worm won't be entirely stopped by such tactics; it also includes a peer-to-peer update mechanism. But it's a start.
Perhaps in recognition of the difficulty of getting help from registrars outside the coalition, particularly in countries with a tradition of tolerance for cybercrime, Microsoft said that residents of any country are eligible for its $250,000 reward. In many parts of the world, that kind of money will buy just about anything.
The last time the security community acted in unison like this was during the spring and summer of 2008, when several dozen companies and organizations came together to deal with the DNS vulnerability identified by security researcher Dan Kaminsky. But that was a bug fix rather than a worm-hunting posse.
Haley doesn't expect this sort of community policing of the Internet to happen more frequently, nor would he rule out further actions of this sort. "The groups that stepped in filled a void," he said. "As long as this is effective, we'll continue to look for opportunities."
This article was edited on 2/13 to correct the spelling of the Conficker/Downadup worm.
The cybersecurity profession struggles to retain women (figures range from 10 to 20 percent). It's particularly worrisome for an industry with a rapidly growing number of vacant positions.
So why does the shortage of women continue to be worse in security than in other IT sectors? How can men in infosec be better allies for women; and how can women be better allies for one another? What is the industry doing to fix the problem -- what's working, and what isn't?
Is this really a problem at all? Are the low numbers simply an indication that women do not want to be in cybersecurity, and is it possible that more women will never want to be in cybersecurity? How many women would we need to see in the industry to declare success?
Join Dark Reading senior editor Sara Peters and guests Angela Knox of Cloudmark, Barrett Sellers of Arbor Networks, Regina Wallace-Jones of Facebook, Steve Christey Coley of MITRE, and Chris Roosenraad of M3AAWG on Wednesday, July 13 at 1 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss all this and more.

Maple Leaf Smoked Gouda
Perfecting the craft since 1912, Maple Leaf, the Wisconsin farmer cooperative makes a creamy Gouda with real smoky flavor from Hickory. First they start with the pasteurized milk from neighboring farms, then they allow a little extra acidification to occur so that the tanginess is still perceptible through the smoke. And the further aging of it allows the smoke to permeate all the way through to the core.

APP OF THE DAY: Rightmove review (Android)Pocket-lint
Anyone who has ever dealt with an estate agent will be able to tell you that you're better off avoiding them as much as possible. It's not that they're bad people, it's just that they will do and say pretty much anything to get you to part with your money. So if you could replace some of what they do with an Android app, you'd probably jump at the chance, right?
Enter the Rightmove app, it aims to let you find a property with far less fuss than calling agents to ask what they have to show you on any given day. It's very similar to the website, of course, but you can take it out with you, and that makes it incredibly useful.
- Platform
- Android
- Price
- Free
- Where
- Here
The best feature, especially when you're out and about, is the option to find properties close to you. Obviously, this uses cell data and GPS - if you have it enabled. This is great if you're on a walk, and find a road you'd like to live in, or if you're in an area you don't know well, but think it might be somewhere you want to live.
As it happens, our house is for sale at the moment, and we tested the GPS from here, and happily it was the first house on the list. So it works well too. It also gives a good starting point if you're looking for house prices in the area. It means that you can be sure you aren't overpaying for any potential home.
Sign up for a Rightmove account, and you can save properties, and access them from a computer or another smartphone. It makes a lot of sense, and it also means that you can save properties from your computer, and look at them when you're out and about. Handy when you're at a house and want to check another property.
Search results can be filtered and sorted, too. So you can find things within a certain radius of your ideal postcode, and remove those with too few bedrooms or outside your price range. Once you've got the results up, you can sort them based on price or when they were added to Rightmove - handy for finding houses that aren't selling, and on which a deal can be done.
You can also choose to view the results on a map - which is very handy as it gives you a far better idea of where houses are, something you won't get with a simple road name.
There's also the option to call the agent from the app, or send an email to them. Do be warned, Rightmove uses a centralised set of 0843 numbers to route your call to the agent. This more than likely won't be free on your mobile tariff.
So take the strain out of your agent-buyer relationship, and grab yourself the Rightmove app. You never know, it might stop you from having to call them some nasty names.

Update: BPA in Cans and Plastic Bottles Linked to Quick Rise in Blood Pressure
Avoid Canned Food.
BPA is (still) in everything—chile cans, soda cans…and it's one of only hundreds of plastics that are less than safe for our health. With rates of cancer double that of just one generation ago, it's time we allll start going plastic-free.
Click below for more. Excerpt:
"This is the first study to suggest a link between brain cancer and the chemical, which is widely used in consumer products.Those with the highest urine BPA levels were about 1.6 times more likely to be diagnosed with meningioma compared to those with lower concentrations."…Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used chemical that can behave like estrogen. It is used in the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. BPA is in many consumer products, including the lining of food and beverage cans, plastic food packaging, dental sealants, paper receipts and water pipes. Exposure in people is widespread and occurs mainly through eating or drinking contaminated food and beverages.Animal and human studies have linked BPA to hormone-sensitive cancers, including breast and prostate cancers. The relationship between BPA exposure and meningioma is unclear…The patients with higher concentrations of BPA in their urine – the three groups with greater than 0.53 ng/ml – were more likely to have the brain cancer compared to those with the lower concentrations – less than 0.53 ng/mL. Specifically, those with higher concentrations were 1.4 to 1.6 times more likely to be diagnosed than patients in the group with the lowest urine concentrations.

Hope you like your 737 midair collision. More about : faa dilluted jsc July 23, 2011 12:39:39 PM Nice link, dogman. You should read the entire article: The release goes on to say, "The safety of the flying public will not be compromised." Air traffic controllers will remain on the job, but the furloughs will affect many FAA engineers, scientists, computer specialists, community planners and others. According to the Department of Transportation, FAA workers could be furloughed in 35 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. And place the blame on the Democratic Senate: "It is unbelievable that after the House passed the 21st FAA extension, the Senate departed Washington and left the FAA and many of its employees behind," he said. "In light of the nation's pending financial disaster and soaring deficits, they couldn't find a way to cut even a few million dollars by accepting this minor request to reduce outlandish subsidies."
