BRENTFORD, Apr 27 (SW) - After only receiving his call up from Ghanaian manager Ratomir Dujkovic last week, Brentford Striker Lloyd Owusu's World Cup dream is over.
The 29 year old suffered a torn groin muscle during the Black Star's friendly game against Stuttgart on wednesday night, which finished in a 1-1 draw.
Brentford boss Martin Allen explained that the injury meant the striker would also miss the league 1 side's bid for promotion, as he would be out for the next six weeks at least. He broke the news to the club's website: "Lloyd played yesterday for Ghana and was taken off injured with a torn groin muscle"
"This will now keep him out for between six to eight weeks and he will not be available for our remaining games and also the World Cup."
Ghana's opening game of this summer's World Cup is against Italy and they will also have to face the United States and Czech Republic in the group stages of the tournament.

'MONEY-MAKING time." That is what Brett Brown calls this offseason, his first full one as the Sixers' head coach. He doesn't mean that he is going to make some extra cash on top of his 4-year, multimillion-dollar salary. What he is saying is that in order for this organization to rebuild to where it wants to be, the work done away from the gym is just as important as the sweat that is dropped in it.
Last month the Sixers learned they had the third and 10th overall draft picks, to go along with the five second-round selections they already had. Since then, Brown has been quite busy, spending some time with his family in San Antonio (they will be moving here shortly), attending the rookie combines in Chicago, conducting interviews with prospective draft choices and overseeing some workouts by future rookies. And there was also that new practice facility in Camden that took a great deal of his time.

If you have troubles since the update to WordPress 4.5 please read this post before opening a new thread.
Tagged: angular, background, boxed layout, stretched layout
Is it possible to have the stretched layout for the background on the home page, but then on every other page and post to have just the boxed layout?
In header.php replace:
<?php $style = avia_get_option('boxed','stretched'); ?>
<?php if (is_home() || is_front_page()){
$style = 'stretched';
$style = 'boxed';
Best regards,
Thanks! That did the trick.
To make things more difficult: can the header (navigation) and stripe on top be the same on the front page as it is for a boxed layout? I don't want the stripe to go all the way across, just within the navigation section and possibly have a solid colour in the background o the nav as well with some padding…
Thanks for the support!

Committing to sustainable electricity grids in Europe
By BirdLife Europe, 6 Dec 2012
- Pelican hotline
- BirdLife cries the loss of conservation giant Luc Hoffmann
- Winning hearts and minds in Cape Verde
- Traditional wisdom and conservation science in Lake Victoria
- School's out(side) for Spring!
- Shea butter nourishes more than dry skin
- Croatian national powerlines operator to collaborate with BirdLife Partner to protect migratory birds
- Malta's first marine Special Protection Areas announced
- Spix's Macaw reappears in Brazil
- New initiative aims to make self-assessment easier for conservation
One way to tackle the threat of climate change is to change how we source our energy. We are all increasingly dependent on electricity to power our computers and dishwashers and the thought of the masses of energy needed to power entire industries is mind boggling. One way to improve how we source our electricity is to move to renewable energy. To do this on a broader European scale expansion of the electricity grid is required, in the form of new energy production installations and thousands of kilometres of new power lines. If these projects are only planned well, Europe can make these changes at the necessary scale without harming the environment and wildlife where the new facilities are built.
The Renewables Grid Initiative (RGI) works to do just that. RGI is a partnership that brings together green NGOs, including BirdLife Europe, and grid operators, to promote the expansion of renewable energy generation and the modernisation of transmission capacity in Europe. At a conference on Wednesday 5 December in Brussels, RGI launched its European Grid Report in support of the previously released European Grid Declaration. The declaration, signed last year by a coalition of Europe's largest environmental NGOs and grid operators, supports grid expansion to integrate renewables, while ensuring that development is fully in line with the EU biodiversity commitments and legislation. The new report publishes over 80 practical experiences by different RGI members across Europe that could be models of good practices for responsible grid operators. The organisations attending the event also signed the second part of the European Grid Declaration on Transparency and Public participation, stating the willingness of RGI members to better inform and involve concerned stakeholders and the broader public about grid extension plans and projects.
The report and the extended European Grid Declaration were presented to European Commissioners Günther H. Oettinger (Energy) and Janez Potočnik (Environment), who welcomed the initiative. Ariel Brunner, Head of Policy at BirdLife Europe stated "If the European Union wants to develop a coherent and sustainable renewable energy policy, it has to upgrade its renewable electricity grids to meet the ever increasing need for power, while safeguarding biodiversity, birds and their habitats." If a sustainable energy system is to be successfully developed and implemented in the EU investing only in renewable is not sufficient; decision makers will have to take into account all related issues, which includes our environment. For more information, please contact Elodie Cantaloube, Media and Communication Assistant at BirdLife Europe

Google Inc entered into a patent cross-licensing agreement with Cisco Systems Inc, the internet search giant's second such deal in as many months.
Google's shares were up one percent at $1,145 in premarket trading on Tuesday.
The "long-term" agreement is an effective way to help prevent unnecessary patent lawsuits, the companies said in a statement.
"We're pleased to enter into this cross-license, and we welcome discussions with any company interested in a similar arrangement," said Allen Lo, Google's deputy general counsel for patents.
Details of the agreement were not disclosed.
Google last month reached a global patent agreement with Samsung Electronics Co Ltd.
Most of the large technology companies, including Apple Inc, are involved in multiple patent litigations against each other, with the majority involving smartphone patents.

It started as an ordinary school field trip. The bus pulled up; the kids got off. Their teacher told them where to explore and what to look out for. But when Code Lightfall spots what appears to be a tiny metallic bee, his world will never be the same again . . . literally.
This "bee" leads Code from his world into Mekhos—the land of robots. And with bizarre robotic creatures around every turn—from infinipedes with razor-sharp mandibles to giant slaughterbots to tiny nanoscopic creatures that dissolve everything in their path—Mekhos is as dangerous as it is fantastical. It soon becomes clear that the only way for Code to get home is to embark on a daring rescue mission: find the object known as the Robonomicon before it falls into the hands of an evil ruler.
With new friends by his side, Code will journey from one end of Mekhos to the other in his quest to save himself—and all the robots—from impending doom. But as incredible as the adventure is, the biggest surprise is yet to come, when Code finds himself face-to-face with the last person he ever thought he'd see again. . . .

They say that a diamond is forever, and it looks like that may be true, especially when it comes to engagement rings. In Mode's latest 100 Years of Fashion episode, they focus on a century of engagement rings, detailing how the cut, settings, and size can change from decade to decade.
This summer, Sotheby's will be auctioning off the largest diamond discovered in over a century. The Lesedi la Rona diamond, meaning "Our Light" in Tswana, was uncovered in Canada's Lucara Diamond Corporation mine in Botswana late last year.
For both jewelry and beauty lovers, Kavador is offering the $40,000 Lewis Manicure, a dome sapphire ring and matching manicure set. The one-of-a-kind Lewis cocktail ring, created by New York jeweler Seaman Schepps, is made with 18-karat gold and 40 sapphires totaling 27.5 carats.
In 1940, Shirley Temple's father bought a $7,210 fancy diamond ring for the child star's 12th birthday. He chose a deep blue colored stone to commemorate her 44th movie, The Blue Bird, which was also completed the same season.
There's a clear difference between bespoke jewelry and customizable pieces. One brings to mind a resplendent piece crafted and molded specifically for you, the other reminds us of, well, charm bracelets. But when Alena Kupriyanova Lotti thinks of personalized jewelry, she combines the two, imagining interchangeable exotic leathers and gemstones designed with 18-karat gold.
On Monday, Australia's Lucapa Diamond Company announced a record-breaking, 404.2-carat diamond was just discovered by their miners in Lulo, Angola. Estimated to be worth at least $20 million AUD (approx. $14.36 million USD), the stone is roughly three-inches long, and is now the largest stone to be discovered in Angola.
To say that women expect something sparkly this Valentine's Day is an understatement. According to a 2016 survey conducted by the National Retail Federation, 54.8 percent of consumers will celebrate the holiday, with total spending expected to reach an all-time high of $19.7 billion. While candy, flowers and dinner are popular gifts, jewelry alone is expected to see almost $4.4 billion in sales.
Turning 90 is a pretty big deal, and the Brazilian Court Hotel wanted to celebrate its anniversary in a lavish way. The Palm Beach property is offering a year-long package that includes everything from Dom Pérignon Champagne to a 90-foot yacht and jewelry for you and all your friends.
We love all things glittery, shimmery and expensive—it's part of why we enjoy working at JustLuxe. Our hearts beat for glimmering baubles, we swoon over gleaming gemstones and adore sparkling jewels, but even the most extravagant stones we can imagine are no match for the diamonds and rubies that top this year's list of most expensive jewels.
Everyone wants something a little sparkly for the holiday season—and we're not talking about lights on the Christmas tree. Giving (and receiving!) meaningful tokens of love is what the season is all about, which is why we love the latest from Elisabeth Bell.
Diamonds come in all shapes and sizes and while some ladies prefer a small, subtle sparkle, others prefer to stand out with a stone that radiates throughout any room, which is why Black, Starr & Frost just got out our attention.
Everyone knows that the devil is in the details and luxury hedonists want things that are unique, handmade and artisanal. Hailing from Tokyo and launched in 2013, #203 Jewelry is finally coming over to the US and bringing with them accessories built on a minimalist-style foundation.
With a website that's plastered with more celebrities than People magazine, jewelry designer Chris Aire is making all our star-studded sartorial dreams come true with a line that's worn and loved by our favorite A-listers.
Why should men have all the fun? Tonda Hémisphères Globo, the latest ladies timepiece from Parmigiani, celebrates and honors the modern woman. Inspired by the men's Tonda Hémisphères models, this updated edition illustrates the beauty and luxury of feminine travel through mechanical precision and unparalleled aesthetics.
Some people work relentlessly toward their dream for years and nothing ever comes to fruition. Others are lucky enough to have it fall into their lap. De Beers Head Designer, Hollie Bonneville Barden, falls somewhere between the two.

Learning at Work Week 2014
Learning Leadership Webinar Series
Leadership - influencing the things that matter
Wednesday 21 May 2014
Our organisations, our communities, our societies are full of issues which really matter, and require our collective thinking and energy. In this webinar, OUBS academics Professor Rob Paton and Dr Owain Smolović Jones from the Department of Public Leadership and Social Enterprise, explore how working with this word 'leadership' may be a valuable way of focusing our thinking on how we can all make a difference on the issues that matter to us. Influencing both situations and individuals immediately calls to mind speaking up, getting passionate and having a voice.
Conflict and working with people's deeply held passions and ideologies is crucial. Not only do we need more leaders – more people identifying as leaders, but we also need our leaders to be more skilled in how they encourage the leadership of others. So in this webinar we will tread into the territory of identity and the political in leadership… Come on in and join the conversation.
This webinar is part of a 5-part series on 'Learning Leadership' and the following webinars are available throughout the week:
Monday 19 May - What Leadership isn't and why this is good news for Leaders with Dr Ben Hardy
Tuesday 20 May - Leadership as Relationship with Dr Caroline Ramsey
Thursday 22 May - Resilient Leadership: mess, set-backs and failure with Murray Eldridge MBA
Friday 23 May - Leadership with Political Astuteness with Professor Jean Hartley
This webinar is brought to you in partnership with Campaign for Learning and is part of Learning at Work Week.
Sue Parr (Host), Head of Executive Education, The Open University Business School
Professor Rob Paton, Professor in Social Enterprise, The Open University Business School

ORANGE COUNTY, CA—Small-office users are driving a significant share of the office-sector improvement in Orange County, according to a report from Marcus & Millichap. The trend is a welcome sign after mostly large firms had the wherewithal to take down space in the preceding two years.
M&M says the average lease signed in the first half of the year was approximately 3,200 square feet, down from 3,600 square feet in the second half of 2013. Average lease footprints have declined steadily since 2011, an indication that small-space users are growing more confident in the economic recovery. GlobeSt.com was unable to reach M&M before deadline to discuss specifics or any similarities among these small-office users.
By year-end, office-space demand will eclipse the pre-recession high, though both office-using employment and occupancy will fall short of the previous bests, the firm reports. However, the prior high watermark for occupancy is an unrealistic barometer due to the pent-up demand that existed in the county before the bottom fell out of the mortgage industry. Equilibrium vacancy is closer to 12% to 13%, and that level could be attained in 2016 as speculative construction remains sparse.
Developers here are mainly focused on build-to-suit projects, M&M reports. A new office tower on Fashion Island, which already has low vacancy and high demand, is the lone speculative development underway. The largest project completed thus far in 2014 is PIMCO's 380,000-square-foot building in Newport Beach. The class-A property at 650 Newport Center Dr. came online in the second quarter.
M&M predicts that construction will peak this year as 1.4 million square feet come online. Pre-leasing for the remaining office space under construction is approximately 60%, though sufficient demand should keep vacancy trending lower. In 2013, 350,000 square feet was delivered.
As GlobeSt.com reported last week, the demand for creative-office space in Orange County is high, and the supply is low, according to RealShare Orange County panelists. Bob Duncan, Jr., senior development partner of Caribou Industries, spoke of the renaissance of Santa Ana and his firm's development of One Broadway Plaza there, calling it a high-rise vertical office campus that is the next phase in office for Orange County. The amenity-rich, pet-friendly property will feature a 16-country world-cuisine food emporium, indoor virtual-reality world of gaming, state-of-the-art performing-arts theater, rooftop heliport and alfresco rooftop dining with a view of Catalina Island. Duncan touted the new development as "the incubator for your company."

Tyler Clementi Case: Dharun Ravi Admits Immaturity and Stupidity, Denies Hatred
Dharun Ravi blames immaturity - not criminal-level hate - for his actions leading up to the tragic suicide of his former Rutgers roommate, Tyler Clementi.
"I was 18 ... I did do things wrong and I was stupid about a lot of stuff," he tells ABC News of his 2010 actions. "I was a dumb kid not thinking about it."

MUMBAI Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd(MAHM.NS), India's biggest utility vehicle manufacturer, posted a 26 percent rise in profit for the three months to end-December but lagged street estimates, as a slide in operating margin offset strong SUV sales growth.
Shares in the company fell as much as 1.4 percent after the results. They were down 0.4 percent before the results were released.
Mahindra, also the world's largest tractor company by sales volume, said profit for the fiscal third quarter was 8.36 billion rupees, against 6.62 billion rupees a year earlier. Net sales increased 29 percent to 106.43 billion rupees.
Analysts, on average, expected profit of 8.62 billion rupees, according to data from Thomson Reuters Starmine.
Mahindra's passenger vehicle sales rose an annual 36 percent during the quarter, as its domestic tractor sales inched up 3.9 percent.

Investors who want to keep risk in check should look beyond comfort stocks—shares of companies with a reputation for generating steady profits whether the economy is racing or receding. They're in high demand, and many have gotten pricey.
For example, the consumer staples, telecom, and utility sectors of the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index, traditional sources of steady profits, are 14% to 31% more expensive than the broad index relative to next year's projected earnings. Investors are keenly focused on controlling the risk that the U.S.'s economic recovery will stall and stocks will swoon. But that may distract from a risk that's much easier to measure: Other things being equal, expensive shares tend to underperform cheap ones over long periods.
RATHER THAN PAY UP for traditionally "safe" stocks, investors should look for opportunities to pay less. One way is to accept a bit of added uncertainty, particularly among companies that are transforming in ways that make them steadier.
Tom Luddy, a portfolio manager with JPMorgan Asset Management, offers two examples. Time Warner twx -0.39779289105607596% Time Warner Inc. U.S.: NYSE USD77.62 -0.31 -0.39779289105607596% /Date(1469739766324-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2521595 AFTER HOURS USD77.7 0.379999999999995 0.1030662200463798% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 99796 P/E Ratio 15.58697136431182 Market Cap 61283683252.0734 Dividend Yield 2.0742076784333934% Rev. per Employee 1141090 More quote details and news » (ticker: TWX) owns television, film, and print businesses, including HBO, Time Inc., Turner Broadcasting System, and Warner Bros. While that does mean that the company has exposure to volatile advertising revenue, it collects more than $2 in subscription fees for each $1 in ad sales. And the stabler subscription business is growing much faster. Shares sell for less than 13 times next year's earnings. The company's free cash flow yield—free cash as a percentage of the stock price—is about 8% of the stock price, "more than what a junk bond pays," says Luddy.
General Motors gm -3.216739537788882% General Motors Co.

But the company has changed in important ways, driving down its costs and shoring up its balance sheet. "They can break even when the industry is only shipping 10 to 11 million vehicles a year," says Luddy. The annualized pace topped 15 million in November.
The other path to bargains is to look for stocks where the numbers say they are steady performers even when public perceptions may be different. A recent screen for companies with statistically smooth quarterly earnings over the past five years produced some predictable names: Colgate-Palmolive cl -0.04093886462882096% Colgate-Palmolive Co.

Marijuana Users' Rights Prompt Santa Monica to Reverse Smoking Ban
Marco Cabre
The Santa Monica City Council earlier this month voted to approve a jaw-dropping ban of smoking in your own apartment. But on "second reading," when a final vote was required, the council backed down.
Members forgot to take into consideration the smoking rights of medical marijuana patients. Really.
The ban was to apply to newly built apartments and those that have been vacated. The conversion of all units in the city -- condos and apartments -- to non-smoking would have eventually been required.

But Tuesday night the council backed off like Snoop Dogg spying a low-quality sack of stress.
According to the Santa Monica Daily Press:
Mayor Richard Bloom switched his earlier vote of support and came out against the ban, saying that he had new concerns about the impact on medical marijuana smokers and the fact that condominium owners had not been included in the process.
Good news for medical users: No justice, no spliff.
The council asked staffers to take into consideration the rights of condo owners and medical pot smokers and come back to it at a later date with recommendations so it can consider once more to ban or not to ban.

Hi Trish66,
Could you try deactivating all the other plugins, to see if it is definitely WLCMS that is causing the issue because I don't have much to go on here to help you.
Hi, we haven't heard back from you in a bit, so we are just following up and for now we are going to mark this ticket as resolved. If you still need help, just reply here and we will start up the conversation again.
This is not isolated to one user. I have the same issue. Tried disabling all other plugins but that didn't help. I had to edit my database to alter my WLCMS settings.
Will do some testing when I get time but I believe the fault is caused by one of the settings in WLCMS. My guess is that activating one of the settings causes the 'Page not found' error on second save. Will try and track it for you.
I'm getting this too. I've disabled all my other plugins. Some changes I can edit and it will save correctly, however, usually when I started editing the dashboard settings that's usually when it will throw up the 404 page.
Actually get the following 403:
You don't have permission to access /***/wp-admin/options-general.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
It was fine for a while, but now I'm having the same problem.
We use Cloudflare hosting and I've got a feeling it's something to do with that??
I just installed this plugin and I'm also getting this error whenever I try to save my changes. Has anyone resolved this issue yet?

Master the most difficult topics in your AP® Physics 1 and Physics 2 courses.
An introduction to physics in the context of everyday objects.
Master the most difficult topics in your AP® Physics 1 and Physics 2 courses.
This course introduces the basics of Digital Signal Processing and computational acoustics, motivated by the vibrational physics of real-world objects and systems.
The Origins course tracks the origin of all things – from the Big Bang to the origin of the Solar System and the Earth. The course follows the evolution of life on our planet through deep geological time to present life forms.
To earn the equivalent of a minor in Chemistry, you must complete four broad introductory-level courses as well as two chemistry electives of your choice.
In this course, you will learn how to characterize the energy state of a system and the mechanisms for transferring energy from one system to another. These are the tools necessary to understand stationary and transportation power systems from small scale, like batteries, to large scale, like nuclear power plants.
An introduction to modern astronomy's most important questions. The four sections of the course are Planets and Life in The Universe; The Life of Stars; Galaxies and Their Environments; The History of The Universe.
Learn about the science behind the current exploration of the solar system in this free class. Use principles from physics, chemistry, biology, and geology to understand the latest from Mars, comprehend the outer solar system, ponder planets outside our solar system, and search for habitability in our neighborhood and beyond.
Study physics abroad in Europe -- virtually! Learn the basics of physics on location in Italy, the Netherlands and the UK, by answering some of the discipline's major questions from over the last 2000 years.
In this course you will learn a whole lot of modern physics (classical and quantum) from basic computer programs that you will download, generalize, or write from scratch, discuss, and then hand in. Join in if you are curious (but not necessarily knowledgeable) about algorithms, and about the deep insights into science that you can obtain by the algorithmic approach.
Chemistry is one of the central physical sciences. As a Chemistry Major, you will explore matter at its most basic—as a collection of atoms.

The graphics in the flashback at the beginning of the flash are very good. Would be cool if you could achieve this kind of graphical quality throughout the whole flash.
The voice acting is good as always. This time, the quality is very nice as well. This makes the flash so much more enjoyable to watch!
Also, the length of the flash is very satisfying as well. Earlier episodes always where rather short, but this one has a very good length. Good work!
{ Review Request Club }
Hi there,
I like the sound quality and the chracterisation but well thats about it. For the standard expectations on NG this seems way below par. The character design was not great and overalll story (even without other pieces) was not great. Compared to past entries I am lost as to how this was featured.
The Shak
p.s. the character style was very like Eddsworld and well...nobody can touch him R.I.P.
Hm well I have some mixed feelings, but overall it wasn't terribly bad, and there were definitely some things I enjoyed about it.
As far as the visuals go, they were nothing special, and they lacked consistency. I know this is most likely due to the additional animators, but it's very blatant and it disrupts the overall film. However, some of the frame-by-frame parts were done pretty well and looked very nice. I wish the whole thing was animated that way. But the other parts that were tweeny just didn't look so great.
For voice acting, sonicmega was very good, but most of the other characters just sounded very bland and off-quality. For music, sometimes you had some nice choices, but you should use less copyrighted audio, especially if you're going to put an ad in the preloader.
For writing, it was pretty good, there was nice, good amounts of dialogue and what the characters said furthered the story, sometimes when people use lots of dialogue it just goes allover the place and you could easily skip the scene and not miss anything from the storyline. This one actually had some crucial writing, and I found it pretty lightheartedly funny. You didn't rely so heavily on vulgarity and just pure hatred to bring comedy, you did it nicely and I respected it.
The characters definitely need some more variety. Some of the main characters do, but the rest of them look like Cyanide and Happiness style. At least make them different heights, more colors, different hairstyles, just more variety, it will greatly assist with the visuals. Also, backgrounds were okay.
I didn't really like the ending, I know it's supposed to be like a "to be continued" type of thing, but it ended so abruptly. Maybe there should be a bigger, longer falling action to the episode.
OVERALL it was okay, but there's lots of things that need to be fixed, most importantly, consistency in the animation, better voice acting, and more variety.
I personally thought some of the different art styles each possessed their own charm, though I understand what you're saying about it disrupting the overall film. The next episode will have a more consistent art style.
I made some of the parts tweeny, like King William's movements at the Royal Ball, because I honestly did not see any point in making it frame-by-frame. Some parts like the high-five in the beginning, I could definitely see warranting fbf, while others like simple movements, I thought could get away with a tween.
Yeah, I did go a bit overboard with the copyrighted music, though I thought a lot of the choices fit the scene (despite some of them being just plain horrid like "All Star").
I'd change the Cyanide & Happiness style if I didn't already go 39 episodes with it, so it'd be kinda weird to change them abruptly.
Thank you for your in-depth review.
Especialy i like sounds and stuff, and not bad drawing
Nice try, but the plot and dialog sounds like it was mde by a kid who plays far to many RPGs... if you are a kid, good job! you animated something! If not... sorry bro

Really good stuff! Very easy to make and even easier to eat. I made it to recipe and served it with fresh pitas. Yum.
This was really easy to make and even easier to eat...great combo of flavours ... used pita wedges for dipping ... kind of reminded me of a kinder, gentler hummus.
I absolutely loved this! Great flavors from great ingredients. AND it can be made without a food processor! I used my plastic cutting board, wooden spatula and alot of elbow grease, and got it to a wonderful smooth, "dip-like" consistancy. I used just a drizzle of olive oil, as I've been trying cut cut out any extra fat or calories. I thought it was just right! I, used my leftovers on whole weat pitas for lunch.
So simple to make and so good! Did not change a thing. Served as suggested with the cruditees and had the leftover on a sandwich with slices of cucumber. Thanks Mirjam!
I added liquid smoke, that took it to phenomenal for me. I subbed dried herb (probably a bit extra), (I ground with my pestel to bring out flavor),pwdered garlic and refried beans. light on the oil. served with celery and radishes. and whole wheat tortilla on side to make a meal. Excellent Thank you
Loved it. Definately 5 stars!
This was good - tasty and easy to make. I used oregano because i didn't have fresh thyme and it worked fine. Would be good as part of a sandwich too!
It was okay, but the main problem was that I did not use fresh herbs. I think that dried herbs cannot be substitued for this... It feels sort of grainy and none of the flavor comes out. I'll have to try again with fresh herbs once I get the chance.

GeForce GTX 280 SLI Dual | Triple review test -
3 - Checking power consumption & requriements
Power consumption
Though SLI is real fun and a very fast way to quickly get more performance, it also effectively ads more 'load' on your power bill. Each GeForce GTX 280 can consume up-to 237 Watts per card when 100% stressed.
Typically this number is lower as your GPU in a lot of situation will not reach that TPD (wattage peak). On average we expect a 150-200 Watt power draw during gaming, per card.
We'll now show you a tests we have done on overall power consumption of the PC. Looking at it from a performance versus wattage point of view.
The methodology is simple: We have a device constantly monitoring the power draw from the PC. After we have run all our tests and benchmarks we look at the recorded maximum peak; and that's the bulls-eye you need to observe as the power peak is extremely important. Bare in mind that you are not looking at the power consumption of the graphics card, but the consumption of the entire PC.
Our test system contains a Core 2 Duo X6800 Extreme Processor, the nForce 680i mainboard, a passive water-cooling solution on the CPU, DVD-rom and a WD Raptor drive. The results:
- PC in Idle = 197 Watt
- PC 100% usage (wattage gaming Peak) = 530 Watt (SLI)
- PC 100% usage (wattage gaming Peak) = 749 Watt (3-way SLI)
The monitoring device is reporting a maximum system wattage peak at 530 Watts with SLI and a very scary 750 Watts with three-way (triple) SLI.
Back to 'regular' SLI, while that's truly a lot. But I remember doing my first GeForce 8800 Ultra test and we where roughly at that same power consumption. So here we have a PC that is much faster, yet consumes roughly the same amount of current. Energy efficiency wise that definitely is good progress.
With that in mind .. let's start some games and see how well they perform.
In this article we'll review the MSI GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING X, aimed at the mainstream segment with a 279 USD price this card is 20 bucks cheaper compared to the founders edition, yet comes factory ...

Seeking Sound Sleep?
I have been diagnosed with idiopathic hypersomnia/narcolepsy and have been prescribed Provigil. The medication helps, but since it is relatively new, I am concerned about long-term effects. Can you recommend a healthy, effective alternative?
Answer (Published 4/27/2004)
Idiopathic hypersomnia and narcolepsy are two different sleep disorders that sometimes overlap. Both cause excessive daytime sleepiness as well as poor quality of nighttime sleep. With narcolepsy, you can suddenly fall asleep at any time, a big danger if you happen to be driving. Other symptoms include cataplexy (the sudden loss of voluntary muscle tone, often triggered by strong emotions), hallucinations when you're falling asleep or as you're waking up, and brief episodes of total paralysis at the onset and end of sleep.

Hypersomnia leads to the urge to nap during the day, no matter what you're doing. Other symptoms may include anxiety, increased irritation, decreased energy, restlessness, slow thinking and speech, loss of appetite, hallucinations and memory problems. Hypersomnia may be caused by narcolepsy (or sleep apnea, another sleep disorder), drug or alcohol abuse, a tumor, or injury to the head or central nervous system. Multiple sclerosis, depression, encephalitis, epilepsy or obesity can also be contributing factors.
Provigil (also known as modafinil) reportedly has fewer of the speedy side effects of older stimulants (amphetamines) used to treat hypersomnia/narcolepsy. According to Rubin Naiman, Ph.D., a sleep specialist here at the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine, Provigil allows people with these sleep disorders to function more normally by masking the symptoms of sleepiness. However, it doesn't treat the underlying causes of the disorders.
Along with the medication, Dr. Naiman suggests learning to sleep more healthily by optimizing general nutrition, eliminating alcohol, caffeine and nicotine, exercising regularly and napping routinely as needed. Nutrients that can help manage narcolepsy include calcium and magnesium, choline, chromium picolinate, coenzyme Q10, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, vitamin C complex (including bioflavonoids) and vitamins D and E. Some research suggests that the supplement 5-HTP may help those with narcolepsy by reducing the duration of cataplexy and improving nighttime sleep.
In addition, food intolerances may be linked to narcolepsy. Ask your physician (or a nutritionist) about an elimination diet. Wheat, dairy products, corn and chocolate are the foods most commonly implicated. Dr. Naiman further recommends breathing exercises to manage stress, and encourages the recording of your dreams (in a journal) to better understand them and to explore the psychological and spiritual impact of your sleep disorders. You also might consider joining a narcolepsy/hypersomnia support group. For information, contact the Narcolepsy Network.
