UPDATE: As Marius Grigaitis and Davide R. said, the clean method is called after all the individual field methods are done. clean_video_url raised a ValidationError and returned nothing, so the clean method found nothing to work with and raised a KeyError.

If I just rename my folder /blog/ to /site/will this crash my wordpress.
I am aware that I would have to change all my pages and posts manually to the renamed folder, but would it run when I fix it up internally.
At the moment I use one html page to point to my wordpress, and I have been trying to work out is it better in the root directory or just rename the folder.
People have been telling me that WordPress is just a blog, but blogs to me means that other people can add to a blog, where as I don't offer others to register as an author, just as a subscriber. So can it be refered to as a website?
The site i only 2 weeks old, if I am going to change it. Now or never.

Did you know that ALL boxed breakfast cereals are toxic?
In fact, organic boxed breakfast cereal is the most toxic of all! How can this be? It seems that everywhere you turn, a bowl of breakfast cereal is touted as a very healthy choice for your first meal of the day.
It's not true, folks!
To make boxed breakfast cereal in the factory, the grains first have to be subjected to such intense pressure and heat that they actually liquify into a slurry. This slurry allows the grains to be quickly and easily shaped into the puffs, flakes, and other shapes that make each cereal distinct.
The manufacturing process used to make boxed cereal is called extrusion and it is so violent and denaturing that the proteins in the grains are actually rendered toxic and allergenic by the process. This is why organic boxed breakfast cereal is more toxic than nonorganic – because organic boxed cereal is whole grain and thereby has more protein in it! The more protein, the more toxic the boxed cereal.
What is a cold breakfast cereal lover to do? Boxed breakfast cereal is considered a staple food in our society. No worries for all you healthy home economists out there – just make your own! Here's a recipe that my family loves and that I have shared for years as a Chapter Leader for the Weston A. Price Foundation. I hope your family enjoys it too!
* For you visual learners, click here for a videoblog on how to make this very cereal!
Healthy Cereal Alternative to Boxed Versions
6 cups freshly ground flour (sources)
3 cups raw milk or plain whole milk yogurt
Mix well and soak the flour in the milk on the kitchen counter (covered with a cloth and rubber band)
for 24 hours.
Mix in 2 tsp baking soda (sources)
3/4 cup coconut oil (sources)
1 cup maple syrup or honey ( you can use 1/2 cup maple syrup and 4 drops liquid stevia instead if you prefer) (sources)
1 tsp sea salt (sources)
1 tsp vanilla extract (sources)
1 tsp maple flavoring (sources)
1 TBL cinnamon (sources)
Mix everything into a batter. Pour batter into (2) 9 x13 pans coated with coconut oil. Bake for 30 minutes at 350 or until a toothpick comes out clean. Do NOT overbake. Let cool and then crumble onto baking sheets and dehydrate at 200 degrees for about 24 hours. Take out dried cereal off the top every few hours so as not to over dry and make the cereal too hard. Store in airtight container in the fridge.

Here is his response, What do you say?
First, you denature proteins when you heat food above 40 degrees or so. So all your vegetables cooked in water, meat, and egg dishes contain denatured proteins. The fear from denatured proteins is similar to the fear of DNA in the flowers growing in your back garden.
You then mention glycation products (AGPs). These are products of non-enzymatic reactions between proteins and sugars, and are indeed thought to be rather unhealthy. Here's a paper with a lot of information on them:
Among other things, the paper has a table for the glycation products from a number of foods, and here are two selected numbers:
olive oil, extra virgin, cold pressed: about 500 kU/serving (of 5 g), while raisin bran (Kellogs) has 10 kU/serving (of 30 g). In fact, when you go over the table, cereals are certainly the least serious source of glycation products on the list. Also, the difference in the amount of AGPs between regular olive oil and the cold-pressed one is about 10% – a small difference, but still 5 times more than the total amount of AGPs in cereals (even taken portion-wise, as I did).
Then you mention Furosine. I couldn't find any discussion of health damage from Furosine – it is a glycation product derived from the amino acid lysine, and has been researched extensively, but seems mostly to be used as an indicator, since it is presumably easy to measure its quantity in food. It doesn't seem to have any separate status as a health hazard. One specific point about furosine is that lysine is an essential amino acid, and higher amount of furosine indeed indicate less lysine availability from the food. But the numbers are not very large – maybe half the lysine gets converted to furosine under extreme conditions.
Finally, it turns out that the glycation products are actually considered as 'good' in some circumstances – for example, they have antioxidant activity.
Last but not least – extrusion. This is a process widely used to make food – not only cereals but also pasta. Generally, any food that you eat and that had a shape give by humans rather than nature was produced by extrusion. As far as I know, you give pasta to the kids. Extrusion is not a single process, but a family of processes whose effect on food depends on multiple parameters. The mechanical aspects of the extrusion process certainly don't denature proteins (as implied by your message) – this is done by heating. AGP production also depends a lot on the conditions in which the process works. This is true for any process used to make food.
Finally, look at the huge distance there is between the evidence that you bring and the consequences you infer from it. What you have is a list of quantitative issues (extrusion increases significantly one thing or another; it may influence the level of AGPs; it may affect the level of lysine that is actually available to the body). None of these is extremely serious by itself, and as I found out that AGPs are actually substantially less present in cereals than in other foods. Nevertheless you infer that morning cereals are toxic.
So – all smoke and no fire.
Hi Sarah,
Need some help here. I sent this article to my ex who is now feeding junk to kids all the time after they had been in a nourishing tradition diet all of their lives . He replied "Saying it is toxic does not mean it is toxic. Here let me state :Boxed Breakfast Cereal is So Healthy!"
I wrote the following :
she explained that extreme heat and pressure are applied to grains denaturing their protein and thus rendering it toxic.
That process of extreme heat and pressure is called Extrusion and it enables mass production of food, so extruded food = processed food .
When you think about it at a chemical level, it's more than a bit naïve to assume that foods can be taken from their fresh state, heated to extremely high temperatures, exposed to chemical and physical processing, spray dried, and left to sit on a store shelf for many months (if not years), and still maintain the beneficial nutritional properties of the fresh food.
The extrusion process results in chemical reactions that have the following effects:
Reduction of microorganisms in the final product (for good and for bad)
Slight increase of iron-bioavailability
Creation of insulin-desensitizing starches (a potential risk-factor for developing diabetes)
Loss of lysine, an essential amino acid necessary for developmental growth and nitrogen management
Simplification of complex starches, increasing rates of tooth decay
Increase of glycemic index of the processed food, as the "extrusion process significantly increased the availability of carbohydrates for digestion"
Destruction of Vitamin A (beta-carotene)
Denaturation of proteins.
Extrusion may change carbohydrates, dietary fibre, the protein and amino acid profile, vitamins, and mineral content of the extrudate in a manner that can be beneficial ( microorganiss are killed) , or harmful if high temperature and pressure are used . (like in the case of boxed cereals)
Why? because high temperatures and pressure cause the fragmentation of proteins, starches, and non-starch polysaccharides that create reactive molecules that may form new linkages not found in nature. This includes Maillard reactions which reduce the nutritional value of the proteins or destruction of vitamins
According to Shivendra Singh, Shirani Gamlath*andLara Wakeling, in Nutritional aspects of food extrusion: a review, a negative effect has been found on nutritional quality of the extrudate with a high temperature and low moisture (less than 15%) like in the case of boxed cereals.
Is that clearer or do you need me to expand more?
About DENATURATION of proteins :
Denatured proteins are ALTERED protein structures, that can be produced BOTH in ur foods and in our bodies. Those altered proteins are also called GLYCATION PRODUCTS ( when the chemical changes proceed far enough they are called advanced glycation endproducts or AGEs) . Various glycation products have been found CONSISTENTLY elevated in the body under conditions of disease and aging . And by the way, a partucular glycation product called furosine, has been found elevated in patients with ALzheimers ….(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10211709?ordinalpos=&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.SmartSearch&log$=citationsensor)
Similar to the glycation phenomenon which occurs in the body under conditions of aging or disease , certain types of food processing result in the production of high amounts of furosine in some food like… tata, BREAKFAST CEREALS!!
quote from study Lysne availability is diminished in commercial fibre-enriched breakfast cereals:
Furosine is a heat–induced marker for thermal treatment in foodstuffs and is directly related to the loss of lysine availability…Data showed a statistically significant effect of protein content, added–dietary fibre and physical form of the samples (flakes/puffed) on the level of furosine present in commercial breakfast cereals. The higher the protein content in the formulation, the higher were the furosine levels, regardless of the protein source. Significantly higher furosine levels were found in puffed commercial breakfast cereals.
Eating these denatured proteins and glycation products has been shown to add to the AGE burden, may be particularly detrimental to kidney function, and to cause a major increase in systemic inflammation – including inflammatory disease markers such as C–reactive protein, even in healthy subjects (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16037267?ordinalpos=15&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum)
Why is denatured protein toxic? Doesn't the body denature the proteins once ingested?
Sarah TheHealthyHomeEconomist
Denaturing means that the proteins won't fit together with enzymes to digest them any longer. When food cannot be digested, it causes digestive imbalance and allergenic issues over time.

Wait this is all made up. Extrusion *destroys* toxins within cereal grains, and although it had a few not-so-good side effects, toxins and microorganisms go way down. But, once again, this "author" just makes things up and no one bothers to check…
Skeptical One
I am skeptical similar to the normal person who commented previously. If this cereal is and has been so bad for us why has it been around for such a long time. And it doesn't feasible to turn grains toxic by cooking them. Or is it chemically possible to do so?

I've made that recipe and it is good, but I now love on the road full-time and don't have the necessary amenities to make it. Plus I'm a busy mom and just don't have time for recipes like that.

Agree with the homemade cereal being in the oven for 24 hrs. I make homemade granola that goes over my yogurt or with raw milk and still buy some organic cereal from TJ's or Whole Foods (not from the brands that have GMO). I guess it would be better to have a dehydrator to make this? Also can I see a pic of it if anyone made it before?

I get puffed spelt grains from the wholefoods store and then I coat them in butter and honey and then toast them under the grill (I think you americans call it broiling?) stirring to make sure they don't burn. then once they look good and toasted I leave them to cool and then serve 'em up with milk. YUM!

Running my gas oven at 200 for 24 hours sounds like expensive cereal. I agree about boxed cereal. In fact when I ate it on a reg basis my stomach was not happy. I quit eating it and felt better.

I've made homemade grape nuts since I found a recipe in an Amish cookbook, 25 years ago. I don't make it often, it's too yummy to keep around on a regular basis!
Love grape nuts
I would love a recipe for grape nuts!

Hi Sarah,
My adult son has has given up bread after discovering that it wasn't good for him. He's started eating rice cakes. Are they extruded? I don't think rice cakes are an ideal food, but how bad are they really? Maybe you would like to do a post on them.
Thanks, Ruth

Dear god woman. Learn some basic science.
"To make boxed breakfast cereal in the factory, the grains first have to be subjected to such intense pressure and heat that they actually liquify into a slurry."
Not only not even close to how flakes are made, it's not even physically possible. Grains are not rocks, they do not "liquify" under heat and pressure, i.e. melt.
"is so violent and denaturing that the proteins in the grains are actually rendered toxic and allergenic by the process. "
Also not anywhere near scientifically accurate or possible.
"This is why organic boxed breakfast cereal is more toxic than nonorganic — because organic boxed cereal is whole grain and thereby has more protein in it! The more protein, the more toxic the boxed cereal."
Grain protein is not toxic.
It's no where near toxic.
The difference between whole grain cereal and normal cereal is the normal cereal is typically only made with the endosperm portion of the seed. This part is all carbohydrate, very little anything else. It's starch. Whole grain uses the…whole grain. So it includes the germ, which is protein, as well as the bran which is fiber (indigestible cellulose).
Your theories and comments are false, scientifically inaccurate, easily refutable.
In short: bullshit.
Hi Sarah I read this post and then watched your video on how to make breakfast cereal. In the recipe here you write raw milk or yogurt but in the video you say to use clabbered milk or buttermilk. Can I use raw milk that has not been clabbered? I'd like to make it today and my milk is still fresh!
One more question, in your ingredients you saw raw milk to soak with, but in your video it is clabbered. Which is best? Thank you
Is it ok to use already ground sprouted wheat or whole wheat flour if you dont have a flour mill or a vitamix?

What about home made granola? Most are made from oats…would this type of cereal be considered toxic too?
Can this cereal be dried in a dehydrator instead of the oven ( a gas stove heats up the house really quickly and that is not so good in the summer)?.. if so for how long?

How long does it take raw milk to sour for soaking? We were told it is good for drinking from 10-12 days or so.
It really depends on where you live, how fresh the milk is, and many other evironmental factors. For example, during the winter, when the milk stays very cold in the car all the way from pick-up to the refrigerator at home, it will take MUCH longer to clabber, and of course, the very opposite in the summer. Leaving the milk out on the counter for 1 to 2 days can speed up the process, but sometimes even THAT can take up to 3 days, even down here in hot, humid Florida.
I would love to read the studies on how proteins are affected by the extrusion process, and how those proteins affect our health. Could you point me to the studies please? Also, thanks for the recipe!
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
Dirty Secrets of the Food Processing Industry on westonaprice.org is a great read on the subject.
Dumb question here – do rolled oats fall into the bad/toxic category due to the processing?? thanks so much for all your great information. I'm still making small steps, but enjoying the journey.
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
Yes it does make a difference. See if your healthfood store can order some.
One more question. If my flour is not freshly ground do I still need to soak it?
Sarah freshly grinds the flour so as to ensure the maximun ammount of nutrients are still in the finish product. The soaking is to break down antinutrients, such as phytic acid, and gluten, so as to make the grains much easier to digest. So, yes, you should absolutely soak your flour.
Sarah, I dont have the extract. Does it make that big of a difference on the flavor?
I use a mix if vanilla and almond and it's really good!
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
Toxic proteins … the proteins in the cereal are completely denatured and rendered toxic by the processing. This is why whole grain cereal is more toxic than cheap cereal made with refined flour. Whole grain cereal is higher in protein.
Kate @ Modern Alternative Mama
Could I reduce the amount of sweetener in general? 1 c. of maple syrup seems like a LOT! I'm thinking about making this next week for quick and easy on-the-go snacks for my kids. Hmm….
B.R.I.L.L.I.A.N.T!!!!! love this. Thanks for sharing
Sarah, what about ezekiel 4:9 sprouted grain cereal? I know the grains are sprouted and minimally processed, but i dont know the exact procedure they use. it seems to be okay b/c they aren't formed or squished into any shape, it's just crumbled grain…
Sarah, the Healthy Home Economist
Hi Tracey, I actually use my oven to dry out the cereal. I set it as low as it will go. A dehydrator would work fine too.
Can I use an oven to dehydrate this cereal? I do not have a dehydrator?
Sarah, the Healthy Home Economist
Since the wheat flour is soaked overnight, the gluten is broken down as practiced by traditional societies. You might find that you can eat wheat prepared traditionally in this way. If not, try another type of flour that works for you. I haven't tried other flours, so cannot offer advice.
ok I can't eat wheat. what else can you use?
too baa yaa i like wheat what does that mean?
This cereal is awesome, we love it.
Sarah, the Healthy Home Economist
The ingredients are good but how is the cereal processed is the real question. Do you buy at a local healthfood store?
Sarah, The Healthy Home Economist
I know you say "all", but take a look at Uncle Sam's. It is not a "formed" boxed cereal. When you look at it, it is seeds and oats.
I would love to hear you thoughts on it.

This was indeed the sens of my OP: I don't understand what kind of objects/operations lead me to this situation.

Amazing office staff and highly and uniquely skilled Dr. So nice to only have to go to one Dr and not multiple due to his skill sets.
The staff was not that friendly except for one particular girl at the front desk and a nice nurse named Tiffany. The other staff was rude and dismissive. Dr. Parker was obviously over booked and did not spend a lot of time with me. They also dropped the ball on calling me to give me results. Durring my MOH's procedure he got up to take a call and left the door open while several nurses walked in and out of the room acting as if I wasn't on the table with my skin half way stiched up. I will not be returning or reccomending this office to anyone.
Love this doctor and his staff. Short to no wait times, easy to get an appointment, snacks and coffee in waiting room, sweet front desk staff and nurses. Dr. Parker is a nice person and he is good at what he does. Can't say enough about his expertise and thoroughness. Followup visits are great. Best of the best.
Dr. Parker did surgeries on my sister, as well as myself, and even he couldn't find the scar after two (2) years. You do not feel anything when he deadens the area and the reconstruction surgery is just unreal. He's not "greedy." I don't understand that comment. Very nice bedside manner and staff is professional as well. Awesome DOC!!!
Excellent health care and office staff more than professional!
Dr. Parker was caring, well-skilled, and unlike most medical offices, there was minimal to no waiting to go back. When he locally numbs, that was amazing! I felt nothing! He mixes something with the anesthesia to make that almost painless, and I was so impressed. I would refer anyone I know to Dr. Parker. BTWm very nice front desk and medical assistant staff. He's built a great team!
GREAT Doctor! He know's what he's doing.

A robber walked away empty-handed after attempting to rob the V&M Discount Store on Wednesday and wound up being caught "on the walk" by the store's owner.
About 3:40 p.m., a man entered the store, showed a knife and demanded the 10s and 20s from the cash register, said Jeff Cole, owner of the store at 1000 W. Tenth Ave. But when the store's clerk ignored the demand and called for help, the man walked out the door toward Ninth Avenue.
Cole began following the man, who ducked in and out of alleys, occasionally looking back at Cole. The man continued walking toward downtown before trying to hide in an alley off South Madison Street, where police officers made an arrest.
"He was just slow-paced," Cole said.

I've been an avid book reader for quite some time and one of the more enjoyable weblogs I read is by an author. Vikk always whets my appetite for my own reading. My reading seems to include a lot of historic fiction these days and some pretty good action thrillers from James Rollins. I like his style and sense of impact, suspense, and the rather international scope of things. The historic novels I really enjoy are those issued by Gary Jennings like Aztec, Journeyer and others. He has this grand scope but he also talks in earthy tones about life low and high. I've left a few of his books wishing for more; but the greatest shopping in any number of rings for this stuff has to be Amazon. I just find so much there that i need to read.
My son on the other hand cannot seem to be bothered by most reading. When I was 14, it was like my escape, my travel, my mysticism. He seems to like the more 3d computer and PlayStation gaming releases. Perhaps its just me overall and reading is not a skill that is transmitted genetically :). Its a learned thing and people pick it up, dust it off, taste it at different points in their lives. Often a book to me is a cherished release and if I read about intrepid archeologists or paleontologists I get this sense of life past.
Being a good book reader I think must be different than merely being a reader. One has to revel in its intricacy, find its message or just let the pages be steps that allow an escape. Sometimes writing a weblog entry has that same almost mystical quality. It used to be blogging over on TypePad I felt compelled to write things of quality; these days I find myself waiting and watching silently for the kids to quiet themselves down so I can consider the array of my messages.
Then I can decide for my own release that there is a book, there is a blog to read. I don't need the movies most times. I can enjoy the book.

Cantwell, Obama, an Exceptionally Hot Gym, and an Unsteady Campaign Event
On Thursday, Goldy over at HorsesAss suggested I had gone ga-ga for a certain political candidate. Today he has his own ga-ga moment, fawning over Washington Senator Maria Cantwell and her appearance at the Garfield High School gym yesterday with political wunderkind Barack Obama. (You can find other gushy coverage here, here, and here, and Seattle Times coverage here.)
I have to say, I don't agree with Goldy that the event was a good sign for Cantwell, who's running for re-election this year.
Supporters of Aaron Dixon, Cantwell's nettlesome Green Party challenger, were outside the Garfield gym beforehand making noise, and Robert Jamieson of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer had welcomed Cantwell to the Central District on Saturday morning by basically calling her an opportunist in print. Then, when Cantwell rose to speak, she was immediately interrupted by protesters holding up a long banner that read: "Maria Can't Say No to War. Barak, Don't Obom Iraq."
Cantwell seemed flustered, and embarrassed to have brought her superstar Senate colleague all the way across the country for an anti-war ambush. As the protesters chanted, she made the standard stalling remarks about what a great country this is for allowing such dissent, and then said it was time to move on, that she wasn't there to talk about the war, but rather about education.
That didn't move the protesters, who kept chanting, and with the event teetering on the verge of collapse, King County Executive Ron Sims had to spring out of his seat on the dais and lead the crowd in a counter-chant of "Cantwell, Cantwell!" That gave Cantwell's handlers enough time to hustle the protesters out of the gym, but the long, awkward moment reminded everyone in the audience that Cantwell voted for the war in Iraq and is unapologetic about it a position that isn't going to serve her well in liberal Seattle, especially with a Green Party challenger nipping at her expensive heels (and on top of that a well-funded Republican challenger, former insurance company executive Mike McGavick).
Cantwell's speech went on, and was received with strong applause. But then, shortly after Obama rose to speak, there was a loud thud. It was packed in the Garfield gym, and extremely warm, and someone had apparently fainted from all the body heat. That interrupted the event again, and brought back the teetering feeling. Obama, who has a breathtaking presence and a mesmerizing oratorical ability, was able to calm the crowd, made sure a doctor was taking care of the person, and then moved on. An elderly black woman who had brought a framed picture of Obama continued to hold it aloft every time he made a good point. But there were other things being held up during his speech as well: Signs saying, "Iraq Entering Year 4, How Many More," and "Garfield PTSA Opposes Military Recruiters in Schools."
Then someone shouted at Obama: "What about the war?"
Obama, too, wanted to talk about education, not the war. And not having been in the Senate when the decision to invade Iraq was made, he had an easy dodge. "Now hold on," he said. "I didn't vote for the war, young man."
His speech continued, education was talked about, the crowd was enthralled by his magnetism, and Cantwell got her photo-op in what's considered the heart of Seattle's black community.
But I left with a sense of having watched a re-election campaign teeter, and with the feeling that Cantwell could land in serious trouble with her Seattle constituency if she doesn't find a way to address the war nevermind her recent embrace of Idaho Republican Dirk Kempthorne's nomination as Interior Secretary.
She's lucky Obama's star power smoothed the event over, and she's also lucky she was only dealing with two tricky constituencies on Saturday, the black and anti-war communities. Imagine if environmentalists like Cienna Madrid had been in the crowd as well.

XXL Magazine has released their fourth annual "Freshmen 10″ list, which will appear in the May/June 2013 issue. The cover reveal today picks 11 "freshmen" discoveries of who might be the biggest new artists of the year. A list that saw artists like Wiz Khalifa, Danny Brown, Mac Miller, Kendrick Lamar and Macklemore in years past adds each Schoolboy Q & Ab-Soul of Kendrick Lamar's TDE/Black Hippy fam, Trinidad Jame% ("All Gold Everything"), Action Bronson, Joey Bada$$, Logic, Kirko Bangz, Travi$ Scott, Angel Haze, and Las Vegas' own Dizzy Wright, whom was the only artist voted in by fans. Troubled Chicago emcee Chief Keef got the honorable mention spot, coming in at #11.
I'm disappointed Badass and Bronson had to get publicity this way. XXL is an awful magazine, as evidenced by everybody else on the cover.
Exactly Hodges, plus Bronson has been around for 4 years, how the hell is he a freshmen? And who is the goofy white dude?
Trinidad James? really? smh…
@ the man the myth, the goofy white dude is Logic. He actually has some really dope music out, peep some of his videos on youtube. He should have made the class of 2012. Action Bronson definitely should have been in the class of 2011, Dr. Lecter hello! The rest of the guys are horrible to average at best. No one other than Action or Logic has the possibility of becoming a household name let alone be relevant at all in a couple years, sorry to all the Black Hippy movement fans but they aren't that great, not bad but just average… Don't get me started on Trinidad James! GTFOH!!!
I'm surprised action Bronson, schoolboy Q or ab soul didn't make this list last year. I think artists are eligible to make the list so long as they haven't issued an official album on a major label yet, which explains why mc's we've known about for a while made the list. Since they put so many mc's on the list that are nearly household names already, why no earl sweatshirt.

SOURCE: Bieman, Elizabeth. "'By law and process of great nature … free'd': The Winter's Tale." In William Shakespeare: The Romances, pp. 66-89. Boston: Twayne, 1990.
In the following essay, Bieman discusses The Winter's Tale's composition date and textual issues, provides an overview of its plot, language, themes, and characters, and argues that the play adapts the romance genre in order to emphasize its realism.
Just as all of the Romances move beyond the toughness of the tragedies without leaving tragic potentialities behind, so each Romance reaches beyond its predecessor in certain ways. If we see in Pericles a skeletal paradigm of the unrealistic conventions of romance and Cymbeline fleshing the skeleton out with every narrative and dramatic trick at Shakespeare's command, we are prepared to see The Winter's Tale modifying the genre in the direction of realism.1

Invisible Hearing Aid
Invisible is in. If you're putting off getting hearing aids until they become invisible, then the IIC are for you. Tiny but powerful, these advanced instruments feature our latest digital technology.
It is custom made for an individual ear, the deeper position of the hearing aid allows for several technical advantages
Here is a solution to all those who say they will never be caught wearing a hearing aid. These invisible hearing aids can be fitted for patients with moderate to severe hearing loss.
The hearing aid has got several new looks but had a dark side of being visible and not having a better fit making the wearer feel uncomfortable. But an IIC is not visible as it is custom-made to an individual ear canal after taking a mould of the patient's ear. It is designed to be removed daily to promote better ear health and works great on the phone; it gives natural sounding and virtually no whistling or buzzing sound The invisible hearing aid is undetectable, and designed with our most advanced hearing technologies, You get all the features and benefits you want in a digital hearing aid minus the visual stigma that comes with wearing one."
The invisible hearing aid is a "deep canal" aid, meaning it rests comfortably in the second bend of your ear canal. It is digital and programmable, this results in a completely invisible hearing and filter out unwanted background noise and improve listening in noisy environments and provide a comfortable, made-for-you fit. Talk to our audiologists about the new invisible hearing aid.
This invisible technology is avilable in models from Starkey, Oticon and Widex.

I have just installed the Clearly theme at my website at http://down2englishbusiness.com/ . I have set my "Welcome" page as my front page. In Appearance>Theme Settings>Home Page I enabled "Display Home Page Slider" and selected three test images which appear in the "Home Slider Images" field. However, no images appear my home page (the Welcome page).
I have disabled all my other plugins so that there is no conflict. I have also installed the PageBuilder that comes with the theme.
How do get the images to display? And as a separate question, does anyone know the optimum size for these images?

In 1979 the late Archbishop Oscar Romero of El Salvador visited an urban slum where people lived in shelters made from scrap tin and cardboard. A reporter traveling with Romero asked: "How do you feel when you see a community like this?" Romero responded: "I just think of what I have already preached. There shouldn't be first-class people and second-class people" (Spiritual Life, Spring).

Scientists say the Mayon volcano in the Philippines could erupt within days or even hours.
Scientists raised the alert level to four on Sunday.
Fountains of lava up to 200 meters high were seen, and around 85 percent of the area's population has been evacuated to temporary shelters.
Mayon is one of the Philippines' most active volcanoes. It last erupted in 2006 and has erupted more than 50 times in the last 400 years.

Hours before the smallest crowd to attend a game at Citizens Bank Park in more than six years watched the Phillies bumble toward another loss - this one by 6-2 to Milwaukee on Thursday - Ryan Howard wanted to correct misguided notions. There is no reason to panic, he said. It is too early. The proof, he said, was beyond the numbers.
"We've had a couple of mistakes that have cost us games," Howard said before batting practice. "But in all actuality, we've actually played very well this year. I disagree with everyone else. Our record doesn't reflect that right now, but I think we've played well."

Help with D5000 Eyepiece/Eyecup
I have been looking high and low to replace the DK-24 Eyepiece that comes with the D5K, which I do not like. I have mounted the Hoodman 22mm square mount (the one I used to have for the D300) and it is great with a minor problem . It is so big that it partly blocks the LCD and fixes it in place. In other words, I no longer have a vari-tilt LCD. However, it is nothing that I miss not having.
I also need a magnifying eyepiece. My diopter adjustment is at its maximum and my vision, well…not what it used to be. I just got the DK-17M (1.3X round mount) with the DK-22 adapter. People in the internet said that it would work. Well, it didn't. The DK-22 (square to round mount) is designed for the DG2 (2X magnifying eyepiece, only.) The DK-17M ended up in my D700 with the rubber eyecup DK-19 that I already had. It is great since I can MF using the focusing screen, only. I do not know how it would affect the already 95% view in the viewfinder, though. Therefore, I'm back to square one.
These eyepieces/eyecups are great, specially the new setup with the D700 and the Hoodman 22mm square-mount, because they provide a pressure point to stabilize the camera and prevent the light seepage that the standard eyecup usually allows.
I still need a better eyepiece/eyecup for the D5K hopefully with a 1.3x magnifier. Any suggestions?

I was able to set the Hoodman 22mm square mount on the DK-21M eyepiece (~ 1.2x magnifier,) which I had from my days with the D40. I got the magnification (and diopter adjustment, as a result) I wanted, but still have problems with the Vari-Tilt LCD. However, I can wiggle the DK-21M enough to be able to open and close the LCD and that is all I wanted.
Having the Hoodman Eyecup a bit further away from the camera is very nice. I can use it better as a pressure point to further stabilize the D5K when I bring it to my eye. Sometimes, it is the little things that make a bigger difference.

How to get the amount of RAM memory my linux 32 bit sees ? If I use free / top it reports the whole physical memory which exceeds the 32 bit limitations .
its worth noting that 32Bit limits you to 4GB not 2GB for ram, PAE allows you to address (and therefore see) more ram but a single process still cant use more than 4gb of ram
free/top is probably not lying here, try running
to see the results in MB rather han bytes or Kb and this may look more like what you think you should be seeing
free and/or top will show how much memory is available to your system. Even if this is > 4GB on a 32-bit system. PAE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension) will let your 32-bit machine use up to 64GB of physical RAM, each process however will be limited to 4GB or less.

Either move could help Apple shares, which tumbled 12%, to near $440, last week, 38% below their record high of $705, hit in early September. Apple is the S&P 500's biggest percentage loser this year.
Apple (ticker: AAPL) looks cheap, despite analysts' profit-estimate cuts for its 2013 fiscal year, ending in September. The cuts are based on disappointing current-quarter financial guidance suggesting earnings of $9 to $10 a share, well below prior consensus expectations of $11.78 and last year's $12.30. The tech leader fetches almost 10 times projected fiscal-year earnings of $45 a share. Before the earnings release the consensus estimate was near $49.
CEO Tim Cook is watching Apple's cash pile grow, up $16 billion in the most recent quarter alone. Noah Berger/Bloomberg News
Apple's P/E is just seven, when the company's $137 billion, or nearly $145 a share, of cash is worked into the equation. Cash, which rose by $16 billion in the quarter, accounts for more than 30% of Apple's stock-market value.
That cash keeps climbing because earnings way exceed Apple's modest dividends and buybacks. Apple initiated a $2.65-a-share quarterly payout last March, which now equates to a 2.4% dividend yield. It finally started buybacks in the quarter, repurchasing $2 billion worth of stock.
Only in the technology sector do companies hold so much cash, and Apple is the champ, with more than twice as much as No. 2 Microsoft MSFT 1.3799283154121864% Microsoft Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD56.57 0.77 1.3799283154121864% /Date(1469221200422-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 30792917 AFTER HOURS USD56.5 -0.0700000000000003 -0.1237404984974368% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 1364250 P/E Ratio 27.59512195121951 Market Cap 441698557617.187 Dividend Yield 2.5455188262329855% Rev. per Employee 723051 More quote details and news » (MSFT). Tech outfits view cash as a security blanket, and Apple's struggles in the 1990s have made it especially conservative. The cash could hit $200 a share or more by the end of its fiscal 2014. Investors don't give Apple full credit for it, however, partly because they doubt they will ever get it.
"There's a strong belief among investors that a higher return of cash is warranted," says Toni Sacconaghi, a technology analyst at Bernstein. He argues that Apple should "significantly increase the dividend" to 3% or more. "The real magic number is 4%," which would mean an annual dividend of about $18 a share, which could boost the stock by attracting income investors. Such a payout would equal roughly 40% of Apple's projected 2013 earnings, versus 25% now. A 40% payout ratio would be in line with those of many other big companies, including Pfizer PFE 0.08172160174339417% Pfizer Inc.

One sticking point: Apple generates an estimated 30% of its profits in the U.S. A 40% payout ratio would require it to repatriate foreign earnings and pay taxes on them, dip into its domestic cash reserves of $43 billion–the other $94 billion is overseas–or sell debt. Sacconaghi says Apple should consider selling $50 billion of debt—enough to repurchase more than 10% of its 947 million outstanding shares or double its dividend for five years. Apple's debt cost would be low, at under 2%, for a combination of 5-year and 10-year bonds. Most other major techs carry debt. Microsoft has $14 billion, against $68 billion in cash and marketable securities.
Apple was noncommittal on dividend and buyback increases in its earnings conference call Wednesday. Said CFO Peter Oppenheimer: "We do consider increasing these programs, and we'll do what we think is in the best interests of shareholders." He pointed out that Apple is committed to returning $45 billion to holders over the next three fiscal years. That's not a lot, however, for a company earning more than $40 billion annually.
The Bottom Line
To lift its stock, Apple will have to be more shareholder-friendly. A big dividend hike would be best, says analyst Toni Sacconaghi, because it would provide an ongoing benefit.

There are legitimate concerns about Apple. For one, it may have lost smartphone market share in the December quarter, and profits in this fiscal year may be flat with last year's $44.15 a share. But there are promising developments, too, including possible new products, such as much-discussed Apple TV and a lower-priced iPhone that might draw new customers. Says David Rolfe, chief investment officer of Wedgewood Partners, a Missouri investment firm that holds the stock: "Apple is a broken growth stock, but it's not a broken growth company."
Still, broken growth stocks tend to trade at low valuations. When Apple was the world's biggest growth story, dividends didn't matter. Now they do.
Getting Little Respect
Despite still having strong earnings, tons of cash, and a reputation for innovation, Apple trades at a lower valuation than a number of other big technology companies.

Genie Energy's (NYSE:GNE) subsidiary Genie Oil Shale Mongolia agreed to a five-year contract with the Petroleum Authority of Mongolia (PAM) in the exploration of oil shale reserves in Central Mongolia.
The company will begin the process by conducting a mass survey of the area in question, which measures 34,470 sq. km (13,308 sq. mi), followed by the use of in-situ technology—the process of heating oil shale rocks under the surface and pumping the resulting liquid above ground. The survey aims to find out how much commercial potential can be attained through Mongolian reserves.
CEO Claude Pupkin told the Energy Business Review that the company has been active in the region since 2012 through a joint venture survey project that discovered vast oil potential in the region.
This also comes on the heels of Mongolian efforts to begin domestic production for the purpose of reducing foreign imports.
Mongolia imports fuel resources from Switzerland, South Korea, China, and Russia. Russia has supplied 90 percent of Mongolia's energy needs through state-run oil company Rosneft (MM:ROSN).
But importing prices from Russia have become a burden to the Mongolian government, and while importing from other countries is cheaper, the government is hoping to find some relief domestically.
Vice Minister of Mining, O. Erdenebulgan, has worked with Genie since 2012 and is hopeful for a sizeable domestic output. The minister claims that production can begin soon after the assessment.
Up to 6,700 tons of fuel could be yielded when the production process begins, including "fuel, petroleum products, and other synthetic materials by 2018," as reported by the UB Post.
To date, Genie is the only company to receive a contract for oil shale development in Mongolia.
Mongolia is a nation with little expertise in oil shale, which is why the government will be sending personnel to the U.S. and France for further study the subject.
A processing factory is scheduled to be built in the central Tuv Province, otherwise known as Dornogobi Province—already an international investment hotbed due to the Oyu Tolgoi mine.
The factory will cost four billion dollars, with Genie's tax contributions to government coffers amounting to $850 million annually. The plant will foster a total of 5,000 jobs.
The processing plant will process potential fuel resources and will allow the country to export valued goods abroad.
An exporting economy is a healthy one; just ask Germany.
Supposedly, Mongolia has 800 billion tons of oil shale reserves, but this figure stems from outdated geological surveys form the 1990s that only studied 19 percent of overall reserves. A newer figure could very well exceed 800 billion, which is why foreign investors are clamoring to get a piece of oil shale in Mongolia.
Oil Shale vs. Shale Oil
But oil shale is not the same as the shale oil that's transforming the U.S. energy landscape. It's easy to get the two confused, and mixing up the two could have a devastating effect on your investment portfolio.
Essentially, oil shale is a substitute for shale oil. It is also called kerogen, and it must be generated with enough heat to extract fuel liquids. Kerogen would have been crude if it was buried just a tad deeper for a few million more years.
Oil shale is more expensive than its shale oil counterpart, and requires more water usage—something that would generate more of a firestorm from environmental advocates who frown upon water use from fracking activity.
Oil shale can be used as a low-grade heating source along with chemical and material construction.
Attaining oil shale from shale oil can be more costly than extracting shale oil itself, and there are environmental impacts through "land use, waste disposal, water use, waste-water management, greenhouse gas emissions, and air pollution," the UB Post reports.
Major forces in oil shale include China, Estonia, Brazil, Germany, and Russia. Estonia ran 90 percent of its power on oil shale as of 2005.
Other nations that used oil shale are Israel and Romania, but these nations have now either closed many of the plants down or switched to alternatives like natural gas. Egypt and Jordan, however, plan to construct oil shale power plants in the future.
There are large deposits of oil shale concentrated in the United States in Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado, but amid the shale oil boom, these reserves aren't a priority.
Estimated global reserves for oil shale have a range of anywhere from 2.8 to 3.3 trillion barrels of reachable reserves.
Oil Shale Investment
Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDS.A) has been in the oil shale business for fifty years with no major results. Oil shale has traditionally been used as an alternative when shale oil prices are high, but because of the recent shale boom, not much attention has been given to oil shale in the United States.
Hot places for oil shale investment are Mongolia, China, and parts of Eastern Europe, including Estonia and Russia.
Estonia-based oil shale company Viru Keemia Grupp recently won a permit to begin exploration in Ukraine, according to Postimees.
But Mongolia is the one of the best places to be for oil shale growth in the near future. Besides Genie, Mongolian company MAK and France's Total SA (NYSE:TOT) have also submitted assessments to the Mongolian government.
Keep a lookout for Mongolian development as Genie sets the trend for oil shale exploration in the region. Total and MAK may be next in line in getting contracts of their own if Central Mongolia yields favorable reserves.
Mining has transformed Mongolia from an agricultural society into a heavy mining power. The nation can become a major industrial juggernaut and exporter using its natural resources.

Sperm Stem Cells Grown in Lab
November 4, 2004 -- Researchers have succeeded in growing sperm stem cells in laboratory cultures. These cells were then transferred to infertile mice who produced sperm and fathered baby mice. Each baby mouse was genetically related to the sperm stem cell donor, not to the mouse producing the sperm.
Actually, this research team has been working on similar technology for over ten years. What is new is that specific genes can be inserted into the sperm stem cells which can then be grown in culture to provide an endless supply of these cells.
The researchers point out that their technology developed in mice could also be used to treat infertility in humans. Sperm stem cells could be removed from a donor, cultured to increase their numbers, frozen, and then reimplanted back into the donor (or another male) at a future date.
The researchers also propose that these sperm stem cells have the "potential" of serving as a source for more versatile adult stem cells to replace diseased or injured tissue. Because of the current controversy swirling around the development of stem cell lines, this application requires a much bigger leap of faith.
