Economic and health effects of fruit and vegetable advertising: Evidence from lab experiments
This study investigates consumer response to various types of advertising for fruits and vegetables—a food category which health officials uniformly agree is significantly under-consumed in the United States. Using an adult, non-student subject pool of 271 participants in an economic experiment, consumers' response to different types of fruit and vegetable advertising is measured empirically. This study finds that broad-based advertising, which is generic advertising for the entire fruit and vegetable category, increases consumer willingness to pay by an average of 24.6%. The simulation model shows that broad-based advertising for fruits and vegetables, either alone or as a hybrid with individual commodity-specific campaigns (e.g., apple advertising), would reduce average caloric intake per person by approximately 1800kcal per year. The results of this study may contribute to new public policy initiatives that aim to reduce diet-related illnesses and obesity, which have become increasingly prevalent in the United States.

©2014 Emma Chase (P)2014 Simon & Schuster, Inc.
Emma chase writes well. Great sense of humour in her stories woven so expertly with romance and flowing story telling. The audio was as awesome as the bonus read in Tamed. Great voice Sebastian, oooh.
"Sweet but Short"
Average novella, not great but enjoyable all the same. Proceed at your own risk but don't waste a credit on it.
I will admit that I did not want to like this. This is suppose to be a romance and it is, plus. The plus is erotica or porn. I have listened to porn that had less dirty talk. Drew, the main character is the narrator of the story and he starts off as a real A@@hole. By the end, Chase has you liking the guy. I actually have a son, just like Drew. Mouthy, seems hard and unfeeling, but is a marshmallow inside. Those women with the patience to get past the hard shell outside will be pleasantly surprised.
Narrator is excellent
This has been a review by a Male in a Female's World.
This is a great quickie escape of the continued antics of Drew and the other cast of quirky characters. Best of all, the great narration of Sebastian York. If for no other reason than to let that man cater to your ears, this book is definitely worth a listen!
"I just completed this series on audible and absolu"
OMG!! I just completed this series on audible and absolutely loved it!! Each story was sexy, laugh out loud funny, erotic, and very entertaining. I always love listening to the narrators Sebatian York, Deacon Lee, and Charlotte Penifield, but all three were extra exceptional in this series. I can't imagine any other narrators doing a better job. I thought I loved Emma Chase's Legal Briefs series, but this one beat it. I sure hope she writes more so we can have the story of Billy & Lilly (the stripper), Jack and Erin (one night hook-up, or continued friends with benefits to forever after story), and I would love to read the back story (or continued story) of Steven and Alexandra. I really love the series of Kristen Proby, Kendall Ryan, Lisa Rene Jones and Lauren Blakely, and didn't think I would love another author as much, but Emma Chase has joined their ranks of my favorite authors. I can't wait for her next release to read or hear on audible.
"Short But Great!"
This was super short but well done. A nice little addition to Tangled. Like an extra epilogue. Drew cracks me up. Sebastian York reads him perfectly.
"Ended too soon"
I enjoyed it however it left me wanting more. I need more!!
So not fair.
Short and sweet. I love this narrator - he hits all the right notes. Excellent! I look, forward to the rest in the series.
"Loved loved"
I could not stop laughing this book has the hotness plus makes you laugh out loud one of the best books I have came across
"perfect bit of yummy"
I loved book one so much of course I had to get book 1.5! This is the perfect little bit of yummy to tide you over until you dive into the next book.
Drew is up to his normal shenanigans expect this time he has a lovely Kate at his side and he is so in love with her he doesn't really know with to do with all those feeling. Other than act like a caveman. Loved it!
it's good but short wish it would have been added to the next book !!
"OMG I will can listen to Sebas"
I can listen to Sebastian York all night long.
He makes it sexy for me.
Loved this. Laugh-Out-Loud Brilliant. Kate should be given a medal for putting up with Drew's antics. But oh,,,, he is loveably gorgeous though.
"Not for me"
Hated the characters and their antics. So immature. Definitely not for me. The narrator was okay.
"Made Me LOL"
Sebastian York's voice is to die for and this storey has a bit of every thing in it
I do seek out all of Sebastian York's books that he has notated his work is amazing ..
Laughed in places
"Short but sweet!!!"
This novella is short and sweet. I love it. Emma Chase makes me fall more in love with her books.
I was so excited to read this book because I thought it was Drew and Kate's wedding. I guessed from the title, having only read Tangled. It wasn't but I wasn't disappointed. Awesome book and I love Delores even more.
I would recommend this series. Love it.

The Dos and Don'ts of Summer Entertaining
Star New York chef Anita Lo, author of the upcoming Cooking Without Borders, gives her tips on having the perfect summer party.
Involve guests in the process
Lo will take her guests clamming or fishing during the day, or stop to pick up fresh corn from a farm stand. If you don't live near the beach, farmer's markets are a great idea or even just a great fish market near your home.
Give the food a romantic narrative
Do you cook whole lobsters because you grew up on the coast of Maine? Is there a family dessert that has a secret ingredient? Bring your experience into the food; make it more personal and memorable.
Serve food that involves participation
Lo will barbeque Korean style and have her guests wrap the food in lettuce leaves. But there are so many options for fun food. Make grilled fajitas and let guests top their own tortillas. Or grill crab legs and dip the flesh in flavored butters. Even setting up toppings for burgers and hot dogs gets people involved in preparation.
Get too ambitious and experiment on your guests
Forget to offer seasonings
"A lot of home cooks don't know how to season well," she says. "Be sure to offer salt on the table."
Don't let guests do everything
Lo doesn't go so far as to let her guests take over the grill—unless she knows them well.

This review is from: Rosewill RFX-120BL - 120mm Computer Case Cooling Fan - Transparent Frame with Blue LED Lights, 2-Ball Bearing, Silent, 2 Rotation Speeds with PWM Control
Pros: They work.
Cons: They move so little air overall that they pretty much have to run at full speed full time. For perspective, my failing grinding CoolMaster fans these were to replace made the same amount of noise but still moved more air than the Rosewill fans brand new.
Other Thoughts: If you have a lot of case fans, the controller for these is not very convenient since it appears that each controller card slot will only handle one fan at a time. I did not realize that this item came expecting you to consume a slot for the fan controller. I hope this helps someone else not get caught.READ FULL REVIEW

>The next question would be, do we want to ignore these plants for
>breeding or are the other traits transmitted by them important enough
>to keep working with them. Through careful breeding we might save the
>good and remove the bad.
The first though that most people will think is to not use those
hostas for breeding. It doesn't make too much difference what the
fault is that we are btalking about. If a hosta has a fault, such as
being susceptable to slug damage, then not using those hostas and only
using slug resistant hostas makes sense if you have a lot of slug
resistant hostas and all the traits you want can be found in the slug
resistant hostas.
However, there is no reason to not use a hosta that has some fault,
such as being susceptable to slug damage, as long as you know the
fault is there and you select against that fault in later generations.
For example, I use lilies that are susceptible to bulb rot in my lily
breeding. However, I also have a way of growing the resulting
progenies that does away with most of the rot susceptable ones very
easily. I use the rot suscpetible ones because they have desirable
traits. In later generations I select for the desirable traits and
against the undesirable traits. It really isn't any different for
hostas. If two hostas are equally the same but one is highly
resistant to slug damage, then use that one instead of the susceptable
one. However, if the susceptable one is the one that has the desired
traits, then use it, but in later generations test for slug
The only negative about using something that has a fault is that the
fault may be carried along for many generations and it may be
necessary to keep testing for the fault. This is especially true for
traits that are recessive. However, if you understand your breeding
lines, then you can take these faults into account. The problem
arises when other people buy your plant that has the fault in a hidden
recessive state and it shows up in later generations when they use it.

Review by:
Tina Martin
on June 22, 2011 :
I've always admired Vincent Meis as a photographer, but now I see that he's a writer too and one who knows how to keep a reader's interest! I found Eddie's Desert Rose very engaging--definitely a page-turner, or whatever the audible equivalent is. I was also interested in the setting and getting a glimpse of a part of the world that's always in the news but rarely understood.

I've been following Vincent's career for a while. After finishing Eddie's Dessert Rose I'm certain it is my favorite read. I love the character development as the story weaves it's way to the ending. Each person lives in my mind as real mix of strength and vulnerability. Curl up in a cozy chair and you won't put this story down until the finish!

Oh, to be in love.

Oh, to be in love.
(submitted by Adam)
Not everyone is lucky enough to have Ingmar Bergman shoot their family portraits.
I feel like these two people should be slaying walkers on The Walking Dead. (That is intended to be a compliment.)
Man…the floating head thing never fails to creep me out a bit.
"Come On In….We've Been Waiting for You." (cue up thunder & lightening….you KNOW something bad is going to happen)
It looks like one of those rustic pencil drawings.
He is like a giddy little schoolgirl.
Don't ever leave me…because Because I'll find you…
Hilarious! That one says it all!

For some people
All it takes is one.
One particular injury
For everything to be undone.
Don't mistake me
I don't mean physically
And feelings are important
But it's not just emotionally
A true wound
It can transcend all of those
Mental, physical, emotional.
A wound can reach as far as your soul.
Betrayal and backbiting.
Lies and mischief.
Wounds that we all feel.
No denying this.
Wounds are walls.
In a way, they protect you.
You don't want to feel a wound again.
So you learn from them and never have to.
Wounds and trust are enemies.
Trust teaches us not to fear wounds.
But wounds teach us never to trust.
Which one is for us?
Then think inversely for a minute.
What if you were the villain?
What if you wounded someone?
How would it feel then?
I've felt that before.
Guilt is a powerful wound too
And ironically it comes from
The wounds given by you
But the lesson in this tale
Is not to reflect on a wound
Don't let it seethe and sit
Move past it!
Don't let a wound hold you back.
Find something to soothe it.
All of us feel them, trust me it's okay.
We all hurt. We've all been wounded.

This was wonderful! It speaks to me by the bucket loads. So powerful and so descriptive. Really great stuff. Proud to be, and can't believe, the first like and comment on this. Keep up the good work and continue writing more like this. Do come check some of my stuff too, if you like? I have a wide range of work, so i'm sure you can find something that you will enjoy. :o)
I like this work, it makes me think, wounds, of the past, last, if we allow them to.
But can we get over them all?
We need to open a wound, clean it out, so it will heal in time. Don't you think?
I have also heard it said, we bring wounds on ourselves, by allowing them in the first place.
I feel /know our minds are very powerful.
Keep going,
till next time?

The Fairmont The Plan #FairmontProject
I think every build should start with a good plan. You need to figure out what it is you want to accomplish before you start paying out your hard earned money on a vehicle build. In this video I talk about my plans for my 1979 Ford Fairmont. For those of you not familiar, this is a Fox body vehicle which is the same chassis as the Ford Mustang from 1978-1992. That means that most of the parts that fit a Mustang of that vintage, fit this car. I'm not the first person to think of this, but I hope to put my own unique spin on this build to make it my own. I think you'll enjoy what I have in store for the Fairmont. If nothing else, it will make for a bunch of new and interesting videos this season. I can't wait to get started. FYI, that will likely be summer 2015. Thanks for watching.

The epic class 12 battle between Brian Armstrong/Mark Tierney and Marty Toner/Sharon Clarke continued in Galway with Toner/Clarke emerging victorious. Armstrong/Tierney are two points in front in the championship heading to Donegal but on dropped scores, Toner/Clarke hold the advantage. Chris Armstrong/James Fulton moved closer to securing class 13 thanks to a 3rd place finish in Galway. Gary Kiernan/Niall Tierney are the only crew who can deny them class glory. Damien Toner/Damien Fleming have secured class 14 with Pringle/Byrne taking overall honours, removing them from the class placings. JF Shovelin/Terence Furey & Michael Carbin/Emmet McCooey have secured classes 15 and 20 respectively.
The Junior class is heading towards an exciting conclusion as Stephen Reynolds/Derek McCarthy, Martin Swinburne/Gretchen Fegan and Paul Crosby are all locked together on 24 points heading to Donegal. McConnell Motorsport are 10 points clear of Nama Dodgers in the Team Trophy.
The final round of the 2015 Sligo Pallets Border Rally Championship is the Donegal Harvest Rally on Saturday 10th October. The Burt-based event will decide who emerges victorious in the classes still to be decided and which crews can secure 2nd and 3rd overall behind new Border Champions, Jonathan Pringle & Martin Byrne.

Sligo Pallets Border Rally Championship Heads to New Territory in 2015
The committee of the Border Rally Championship are delighted to confirm that Sligo Pallets will return as title sponsors for the 2015 Border Rally Championship. This partnership, which began in 2011, has seen the Championship grow in stature and entrance levels increase over the previous years. It is hoped this trend will continue in 2015.
The Championship will revert to a six round series in 2015 with the addition of the Galway Summer Rally in late August. It was felt by many crews that there was too long of a gap between Sligo & Donegal ,so Galway in late August was the ideal candidate to fill this void. The committee look forward to welcoming Galway to the fold this year. Due to the new round, competitors will now count their best four scores from six events. Classes will be as per 2015 Motorsport Ireland regulations.
Defending Champions, David Moffett & Fintan Sherry are hoping to defend their Border title in 2015. The pair are eyeing a move up to class 13 this year after winning the championship based on their success in class 11R in 2014. Last year's runners-up Brian Armstrong/Mark Tierney will be hoping to go one better in 2015 and will again compete in the ultra-competitive class 12. Former Champions, Arthur Kierans/Mac Kierans as well as Martin Toner/Sharon Clarke will ensure Armstrong/Tierney won't have it all their own way in class 12. Gene McDonald/Kevin Reilly who finished 3rd overall last year will be back out in class 9 again. Other notable entries for Mayo include Border regulars, Daniel Conaghan/Terence McGee, Trevor Bustard/Kenny Bustard, Pat Kirk/John McElhinney and Roger Kennedy/Wendy Blackledge.
It's a mixture of old and new for the 2015 Mayo Stages Rally as, for the third year in succession, the Mayo Stages Rally will be based in the North Mayo town of Ballina. This year competitors will face the challenge of three entirely new stages, each to run three times, offering a total distance of approximately 116 stage kilometres and 120 road kilometres. They look set to provide a challenging test for competitors. The event is co-sponsored by Hotel Ballina and Kennedy Motors.
Sligo Pallets Border Rally Championship Charity Presentation
The committee of the Sligo Pallets Border Rally Championship have presented the proceeds from last year's prizegiving to CROI. CROI is a charitable organisation which raises money for the education, research and development of cardicac services and facilities. 2700 was raised at the 2014 prizegiving which now brings the total to over 7000 raised for charity since Sligo Pallets took over as title sponsors of the Border Rally Championship. The presentation was made at the finish ramp of the Sligo Stages Rally which was the fourth round of the 2015 season.

The Center for African Studies considers requests to host, coordinate, sponsor or co-sponsor Africa-related events only if the event is supported by one of our faculty affiliates. Event requests should be sent to the Events and Fellows Officer by the sponsoring faculty member.
The Committee on African Studies, along with the Du Bois Institute, the Gleitsman Program in Leadership for Social Change, the Political Anthropology Working Group and the Harvard Law Documentary Studio are co-sponsoring a special screening event of award-winning documentary Dear Mandela. Dear Mandela captures a story of the first post-Apartheid generation, through the eyes of three 'young lions' who fight mass eviction from their shantytowns, an take their government to the highest court in the land, putting the promises of democracy to the test.
Filmmaker Dara Kell as well as Mnikelo Ndabankulu and Zodwa Nsibande from South African Shackdwellers' Movement, Abahlali baseMjondolo, will be in attendance for a post-screening discussion, led by ACLS New Faculty Fellow Kerry Chance.
When the South African government promises to 'eradicate the slums' and begins evicting shack dwellers from their homes, three friends who live in Durban's vast shantytowns refuse to be moved. DEAR MANDELA follows their journey from their shacks to the highest court in the land as they invoke Nelson Mandela's example and become leaders in an inspiring social movement.
Mazwi, an enlightened schoolboy; Zama, an AIDS orphan and Mnikelo, a mischievous shopkeeper are part of a new generation who feel betrayed by the broken promises of Mandela's own political party, the African National Congress. Determined to stop the evictions, they met with their communities by candlelight and discovered that the new innocuous-sounding 'Slums Act' legalized the evictions and violated the rights enshrined in the country's landmark Constitution. With the help of pro bono lawyers, they challenged the Slums Act all the way to the hallowed Constitutional Court.
The extraordinary achievements of the shack dwellers did not come without a price. As the beloved Mandela's portrait beams down from schoolroom chalkboards and shack walls, Mazwi, Zama and Mnikelo learn of the sacrifices that come with leadership. Shack demolitions, assassination attempts and government repression test their resolve to continue. By turns devastating, inspiring and funny, DEAR MANDELA offers a new perspective on the role that young people can play in political change and is a fascinating portrait of South Africa coming of age.

Lambdas are coming to the Java language in the upcoming release of Java 8! While this is generally great news, many Java developers have never experienced Lambdas before, and have not yet learned the best ways to use them for maximum productivity. In this talk, we will discuss best practices for using Lambdas in Java and other JVM-based languages, and we will investigate how we can make these constructs more usable in production.

April 9, 2014
Rice University student-athletes celebrated a successful year on Wednesday night at the annual Night of the Owl event, presented by the "R" Association. Women's tennis senior Dominique Harmath and baseball's Andrew Murphy and claimed the top honors bestowed on Rice University scholar-athletes.
A Toronto, Ontario native, Harmath received the 39th Joyce Pounds Hardy Award, which honors long-time Rice supporter Joyce Pounds Hardy and is presented to the top overall female student-athlete for her efforts in athletics, in the classroom and in the community. The two-time first team all-Conference USA team member in singles helped the Owls claim the 2013 league title and advance to the NCAA Tournament each of the past two seasons. She also represented Canada last summer at the World University Games in Russia. Harmath is a three-time C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll member and was named to the C-USA Academic All-Conference team last season.
Murphy, a catcher for the Owls took home the 2014 Bob Quin Award, given annually to Rice Athletics' most outstanding all-around senior male athlete. The award honors Quin, a well-respected Rice student-athlete who passed away during an Atlantic voyage in 1930. The Shreveport, La. native is a reserve catcher that has played a crucial role in preparing one of the top pitching staffs in the nation. Murphy has helped the Owls claim Conference USA titles and NCAA Tournament berths in each of his three full seasons. He was honored as Rice's C-USA Spirit of Service Award winner in 2012 for completing more than 100 service hours in that academic year alone. Murphy is also a fixture on the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll and was the program's 2013 Rice Scholar Athlete.
Also recognized during Night of the Owl were most valuable players for each sport along with other end-of-the-year awards. The celebration included the presentation of Rice Athletics' highest academic awards, the OJ Brigance Courage Award, the Carl Isgren Iron Owl Award winners along with Spirit and Community Service awards.
Men's basketball senior Bahrom Firozgary earned the "R" Association's J. Fred Duckett Postgraduate Scholarship, while Harmath was named the "R" Association Margie E. Sass Postgraduate recipient.
Firozgary walked onto the Owls basketball team as a junior and saw action in 45 games over two seasons, including three starts. The 2013-14 Rice Scholar Athlete for men's basketball was one of two Owls and just four Conference USA players to be named to the NABC Honors Court for academic excellence in 2012-13.

Anywho, I'm starting to get into brighter colors even though I had previously shied away from the neon trend. I also have some kelly green jeans I'll be pairing with this top in order to fulfill my "monochromatic jelly bean" dressing dream. I'm excited about this pleated leather skirt too. I had been looking for one for the past few weeks and found this one at H&M and decided to buy it even though it was 2 sizes too big. (fashion girl problems) I found this lovely necklace at H&M, it has opalescent and orange stones, super on trend and reminds me of the necklace I was talking about in my last post."

'Glee' Guys Channel the Village People
The boys of "Glee" are apparently still hanging out in the off-season and got together to pose in costumes from the classic disco band The Village People.
"The Glee bros and I wanted to keep up our chops over the hiatus so we formed a tribute band," Mark Salling joked on Twitter. Other cast members posing with Salling were Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, Darren Criss and Harry Shum Jr.
No word yet on whether the pic could mean The Village People may be featured on a future episode of the hit FOX show.
The Village People -- formed in the 70's -- was famous for its outlandish theme costumes and hits including "Macho Man" and "Y.M.C.A."

The man that ruined so many individual's lives and left one of America's top universities in shambles, Penn State, is set to finally speak on the unbelievable and immoral acts that he took part in.
ESPN (via Associated Press) reports that NBC will air an interview with Jerry Sandusky on the "Today" show on Monday, March 25.
NBC says it will air an interview with former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky next week.
The network said the segment will be broadcast Monday on the "Today" show. NBC says the convicted sex offender will give his account of the encounters that landed him in prison and discuss former boss Joe Paterno.
NBC says Sandusky also will also talk about Mike McQueary, a then-graduate assistant who told Paterno in 2001 he'd seen Sandusky showering with a young boy in a football locker room.
McQueary is pursuing a defamation and whistleblower lawsuit against Penn State.
Undoubtedly, millions of Americans will tune in to hear what the monster behind the mess has to say. Whether or not he should even be given the right to do so is another topic.

IRVING, Texas -- Chicago's search for Lovie Smith's replacement could take them to the Cowboys' coaching staff.
A source also tells ESPN Dallas' Calvin Watkins that the Bears will interview Cowboys special teams coordinator Joe DeCamillis on Saturday in Dallas.
Earlier, sources confirmed a Foxsports.com report that the Bears asked for permission to speak with DeCamillis.
According to reports, Chicago has expressed interest in Denver offensive coordinator Mike McCoy, Atlanta special teams coordinator Keith Armstrong and Tampa Bay offensive coordinator Mike Sullivan.
DeCamillis has been with the Cowboys since 2009 and has some history with Bears general manager Phil Emery, having worked together in Atlanta. The special teams units had good and bad moments in 2012 and were affected by the defensive injuries throughout the course of the season. The Cowboys allowed a block punt for a touchdown in Seattle and a kick return for a touchdown in Baltimore, but they also saw Dwayne Harris develop into a dangerous punt returner and Dan Bailey make 29 of 31 field-goal attempts.
