- I bought this fridge through the Co Op in Jersey. It was not kept in stock so I ordered it because it was an under counter intergrated model. The interior design is dreadful, the storage capacity of the fridge has been compromised due to the silly top loading box at the bottom with the sliding top! You can't put much in it and the sliding top has to be kept clear to access the box thus wasting yet more space. Why aren't there drawers under a lower shelf as in sensible fridges? Lastly the adjustable feet have too large a thread and don't lock in position so the fridge starts leaning forward and when you open the door the silly sliding top slides open! I guess I should have looked online for the internal layout of the fridge before purchase, Beko is normally a good design, lesson learnt!

As part of Beck's "Art & Music" promotion, LadyHawke and Hard-Fi have designed "Music Inspired Art Labels" for limited edition bottles of Becks.
While I'm not exactly a huge fan of Becks (I used to be, until I discovered Anchor Steam) these fantastic labels are enough for me to want to buy a few bottles of Becks. Even if I will just be dumping out the beer.
LadyHawke's labels were illustrated by Sydney-based artist, Sarah Larnach, who lived with LadyHawke back when she was first getting started on her music career. Larnach explained that living with Pip Brown gave her tremendous insight into her world.
From UFOs, dinosaurs and video games, Sarah's illustrated depictions of LadyHawke's universe have been used on LadyHawke's singles and album. While the illustrations may not directly reflect what the song is about, they reflect what LadyHawke is about, as a person.
Brown and Larnach explain that when they were coming up with the illustrations for the Becks labels, they not only drank a lot of Becks, but became obsessed with the dioramas at museums. As a result, the LadyHawke Becks labels have a self described "natural history feel" to them.
From a howling wolf to Pip reaching out her arm to a hawke (get it? It's a LADY with a HAWKE!) Larnach and Brown's LadyHawke labels are pretty damn cool.

Catherine Zeta-Jones Named Worst Dressed Celeb of the Year
We were shocked until we heard that a few fur-haters are doing the name-calling.
-Kathryn H. Cusimano
Catherine Zeta-Jones almost always hits the top of the best-dressed lists, and even managed to look positively perfect a 8-plus months pregnant when she accepted her Oscar for Chicago in 2003. Yet one group isn't too pleased with Catherine's style this year.
Read Where Have Catherine Zeta-Jones' Curves Gone?
The actress topped PETA's "Worst-Dressed" list this year, and the organization is planning a protest outside New York City's Walter Kerr Theater, where Catherine is currently starring in A Little Night Music with Angela Lansbury.
"With her creepy cow-skin pants, ugly fox coat, and icky alligator bag, Catherine Zeta-Jones looks like she's working her way through Noah's ark with a knife," PETA reps told Access Hollywood in a statement. "Maybe she's trying to get into character for an upcoming role as a serial killer — or a taxidermist."
Charming as always. Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Lopez, Jill Zarin and Kate Hudson also made the list. We can't wait to see who they pick on next year! (Access Hollywood)

The Critic Cooks: Panzanella Bread Salad [1]
At this time of year more than any other, I'm on the lookout for easy meals to make at home. My husband's vegetable garden is overflowing with produce, and I prefer to keep things simple so that the flavors of just-plucked beets, turnips, peppers, and—this month—heirloom tomatoes really shine. Enter my take on panzanella salad (pictured).
According to Marcella Hazan, the cookbook author who has been called the "Godmother of Italian Cooking," panzanella is a bread salad originally from central Italy, and is "based on that old standby of the ingenious poor, bread and water," she writes in her Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking [5]. In its simplest form the salad is nothing but tomatoes, basil, olive oil, vinegar, and chunks of toasted and moistened bread. Some traditional recipes also call for onion, garlic, anchovies, capers, bell peppers, or cucumbers.
Using a combination of vine-sweet red and yellow tomatoes, a toasted and torn boule from the Denver Bread Company [6], and a pesto-like, five-basil dressing, my recent lunch of panzanella was one of the most satisfying one-bowl meals I've had in weeks. And it got me thinking, perhaps with a little variation this is a dish I could eat all month, doing each day's ripest tomatoes justice.
Hazan insists that "given the right bread—not supermarket white, but gutsy, country bread such as that of Tuscany or Abruzzi—there is no change one can bring to the traditional version that will improve it." I'm willing to bet several area chefs might beg to differ.
At Potager [7], Teri Ripetto is one of many chefs serving panzanella alongside roast chicken. She adds peaches, pine nuts, and currants to the definitive combination of farmers' market tomatoes, roasted bell peppers, cucumber, capers, Nicoise olives, basil, and torn and toasted sourdough boules. Carbondale's Mark Fischer includes Burrata and a punch of chile flakes to his version at Town [8]. In Boulder, at the Kitchen [9], chefs Paul McGuire and Dennis Phelps incorporate shaved Parmesan cheese and purslane [10]. Panzano [11]'s Elise Wiggins turns the classic into an entrée salad by including jewel lettuce, Gorgonzola, and a rotating protein such as grilled, house-butchered pork loin. Jason Harrison, the chef at Flame [12] restaurant in Vail, subs Parmesan lavosh cracker for the bread and drizzles a deconstructed version of the salad with a 10-year balsamic and a mint-jalapeño vinaigrette. At Ya Ya's Euro Bistro [13] in Greenwood Village, chef Aaron Whitcomb is running a compressed watermelon panzanella as a special this month. He plates the fruit with heirloom grape tomatoes, feta, a champagne-pineapple vinaigrette, and fried house-made focaccia. "I like to fry it to get the richness up," Whitcomb says.
Most inventive, Frank Bonanno serves an Asian spin on the Italian classic at Bones [14]. It combines grilled semolina loaf, tomato confit, Thai basil, hearts of palm, crunchy seaweed, tofu, lemon cucumber, and black garlic vinaigrette.
Whether you adhere to Hazan's definition of panzanella (simple, straightforward) or believe the traditional combination is a mere starting point, the result is a salad worthy of the incredible tomatoes coming in right now.

Aubrey holds a Ph.D. in English and has published many articles on twentieth-century literature. In this essay, Aubrey discusses "Station" and other poems by Grennan in the context of the poet's interest in silence and stillness.
"Station" is one of a number of Grennan's poems that deal with family interactions, both happy and sad. Some of these poems are directly about Grennan's three children, Conor, Kate, and Kira. As If It Matters, the collection in which "Station" first appeared, is framed by two such poems. The first poem in the book, "Two Climbing," is as much about fulfillment between father and son as "Station" is about awkwardness and loss. The poet and the twelve-year-old boy climb Tully Mountain in Ireland. Just as in "Station," not many words pass between them, but in the climbing expedition the silence is one of pleasure and fulfillment, not of confusion...

Shining our halos
Trip Start
Sep 01, 2010
Trip End
Jun 18, 2011
We have had loads of things happening at home recently, so here's our list of family congratulations: happy birthday to my mum and elder sister Rachel, I miss u both so much and can't wait to see you. Best wishes to Tom's dad who, after 27 years of searching, has finally been reunited with his birth mother. Amazing news! And huge congratulations to my beautiful younger sister Sarah, who got married on 4th March, you looked absolutely stunning. We love you all so much and are looking forward to see you when we get home.
Today was our final day working at the charity in Phuket. We can't believe how quickly our time here has gone; it only seems like two mintues since we first arrived. We have worked so hard during or time with ChildTRAC and I'm really proud to tell you that by the end of our last day we had prepared all the information and resources needed for the charity's first ever long-term donation programme! We did it! We can't believe that in the space of a month we managed to achieve something so amazing. Since we first started planning the project it has changed slightly and is now called HALO (Help A Little One) and is more of a long-term donation programme rather than 'sponsor a child'. Basically the way it works is: donors sign up to give a regular monthly donation of �10 a month, this monthly donation is called a HALO Gift and in return donors are given access to an exclusive website that Tom has created, which is full of photos and videos of the children, newsletters, school reports etc. It has taken Tom almost 3 weeks of hard work, learning new skills and staying up until 2am most nights to get this website made, but he has managed to do it and it looks amazing. I would give you the web address so you can have a look, but as its been created only for donors you need a username and password to access it. He was also thrown a slight surprise when, 2 days before we left, he was told that the website had to be re-made into Dutch! Despite being given such a huge task and such a tight deadline, he did it and I could not of been any prouder of him. The charity has never before had the ability to take long-term donations off people but now, because of our hard work, they can. We are bursting with pride at what we have achieved.
The money which is raised by HALO will be used to help a local orphanage called Home & Life, here in Southern Thailand in a place called Khao Lak. Some of the children at the orphanage lost their parents as a result of the 2004 tsunami, while some were placed at the orphanage because their parents can no longer afford to adequately care for them. We got a chance to visit Home & Life during our time in Phuket and it was not what we were expecting at all. It sounds silly but whenever I think of the word 'orphanage' I think of something along the lines of the film Annie or Tracy Beaker… I couldn't have been more wrong about this place. Home & Life is more like a giant care home than an orphanage; the children are cared for as a family, they all go to school and live and play together like brothers and sisters. There was a really positive atmosphere at the orphanage, but despite this they are really really struggling to fund themselves. They are trying hard to raise enough money; they have a great coffee shop on site which brings in a little money from passers-by, they sell cookies and bread that the kids have made at the local market, they have volunteers who come and help care for the children and maintain the buildings and they sell t-shirts decorated by the children. But it just isn't enough. They are struggling very badly to pay their bills and feed the children. This is why the money which is raised by HALO is going to help the Home & Life Orphanage. I don't want to use this blog to try and convince people to sign-up to HALO, but if you think you can help then please check out the websites at the bottom of this entry.
After our time with ChildTRAC came to end we went out for a goodbye meal with our supervisor and the other volunteers; we enjoyed a beautiful sunset down on the beach and then settled down to a great meal at one of the seafood restaurants on the sand. We had a big surprise when our supervisor pulled out a thank you gift for us! She had made us a scrapbook with full of photos taken during our time in Phuket. She had filled the book with photo, quotes, images and written a thank you letter on the front page. We were so shocked and overwhelmed that we really had to choke back the tears; it was so thoughtful of her, we will always be grateful for such a wonderful gift. It was the perfect end to our time with ChildTRAC.
Over the following few days we decided to take some time out to relax and recuperate in Phuket before we started travelling through the rest of Thailand. We have another 30 or so days left on our Thai visas before we need to leave and we intend to make good use of them… but first we needed a few days to catch up on all the sleep we'd missed and to plan the rest of our time in Thailand. We also wanted to explore some more of Phuket before we leave; for example, there is a huge Wat (Wat is the Thai word for temple) across the road from our accommodation which we had never even visited despite living 10 feet away from it for almost a month. So we went to explore around the Wat; it was a baking hot day and the humidity was insane, but the Wat was beautiful and was our first ever visit to a Thai temple. Immediately we noticed how different Thai Wats are to all the other temples we have ever visited… basically they are very golden, very shiny, very jewel-encrusted and very glittery! After our visit to the Wat we spent a day or two going to the beach down the road from our guesthouse and enjoying going for a swim in the crystal clear water.
It feels very strange doing 'travelling' things again because we have been static for long, but the time is definitely right to get back on the road. To get the ball rolling we booked ourselves onto a day tour of some of the tropical islands around the Krabi area for the following day and then went out to celebrate with our first meal alone together in ages. We went to a really nice seafood restaurant nearby that is set in a treehouse and has vines and waterfalls tumbling down into the restaurant. They also have a huge projector screen and they show nothing but music videos by 'divas' like Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Cher, Shakira and Celine Dion. I thought it was great…Tom wanted to throw himself out of the treehouse, but it was only for one evening so he managed to survive it. The food we had was amazing, it probably sounds really sad but here is the menu of what we had to eat: mega spicy papaya salad, sharing platter of breaded mixed seafood, king prawn Pad Thai (fried noodles), squid red Thai curry, rice, 2 extra large beers, a pineapple smoothie and 2 iced coffees. All for the huge price of….�12! It was amazing!! But we couldn't move a muscle after we'd finished eating, it was the most food we've eaten in ages: a great way to celebrate getting back on the road and travelling again.

text: BP Planning To Challenge Oil Spill Estimates To Reduce Their FineCasey Chan12/04/10 4:00pmFiled to: BpoilspillOilspillOildisasterFineCleanwateractOilspillestimatebarrelsGovernment234EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Sometimes we all have to to own up to our mistakes and serve the time. But not the classy folks at BP! According to the NY Times, BP will challenge estimates of the oil spilled in order to reduce their fine. Advertisement As it stands now, government estimates put the amount of oil spilled at 4.9 million barrels which means that BP could face fines of up to $21 billion, or $4,300 per barrel, "if courts determine that it acted with gross negligence before the accident." BP is suggesting that that estimate is 20 to 50 percent too high, though they've failed to offer their own estimate.Of course BP would challenge the estimates though: it's a shit ton of money that they have to pay up. And if we learned anything from the oil spill, it was that BP is all big business corporation: a couple million barrels less is a few billion dollars saved for them. But the problem is BP has notoriously underestimated the flow rate of their oil spill. Their early estimates had the leak at 1,000 to 5,000 barrels a day, but more detailed analysis found that it probably reached as high as 60,000 barrels a day. Quite a bit of difference. Hopefully, the government won't bend to BP's will. [NY Times] Advertisement Illustration by Sam Spratt.

Aggregate function
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In database management an aggregate function is a function where the values of multiple rows are grouped together as input on certain criteria to form a single value of more significant meaning or measurement such as a set, a bag or a list.
Common aggregate functions include :
- Average() (i.e., arithmetic mean)
- Count()
- Maximum()
- nanmean() (mean ignoring NaN values, also known as "nil" or "null")
- Median()
- Minimum()
- Mode()

Lost Cosmonauts
This article needs additional citations for verification. (May 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) |
Lost Cosmonauts, or Phantom Cosmonauts, is a conspiracy theory alleging that Soviet cosmonauts entered outer space, but without their existence having been publicly acknowledged by either the Soviet or Russian space authorities.
Proponents of the Lost Cosmonauts hypothesis concede that Yuri Gagarin was the first man to survive human spaceflight, but claim that the Soviet Union attempted to launch two or more manned space flights prior to Gagarin's, and that at least two cosmonauts died in the attempts. Another cosmonaut, Vladimir Ilyushin, is believed to have landed off-course and been held by the Chinese government. The Government of the Soviet Union supposedly suppressed this information, to prevent bad publicity during the height of the Cold War.
The evidence cited to support Lost Cosmonaut theories is generally not regarded as conclusive, and several cases have been confirmed as hoaxes. In the 1980s, American journalist James Oberg researched space-related disasters in the Soviet Union, but found no evidence of these Lost Cosmonauts.[1] Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, much previously restricted information is now available, including on Valentin Bondarenko, a would-be cosmonaut whose death during training on Earth was covered up by the Soviet government. Even with the availability of published Soviet archival material and memoirs of Russian space pioneers, no hard evidence has emerged to support the Lost Cosmonaut stories.
Purported Czech information leak[edit]
In December 1959, an alleged high-ranking Czech Communist leaked information about many purported unofficial space shots. Aleksei Ledovsky was mentioned as being launched inside a converted R-5A rocket. Three more names of alleged cosmonauts claimed to have perished under similar circumstances were Andrei Mitkov, Sergei Shiborin and Maria Gromova.[2] Also in 1959, pioneering space theoretician Hermann Oberth claimed that a pilot had been killed on a sub-orbital ballistic flight from Kapustin Yar in early 1958. He provided no source for the story.[3] In December 1959, the Italian news agency Continentale repeated the claims that a series of cosmonaut deaths on suborbital flights had been revealed by a high-ranking Czech communist. Continentale identified the cosmonauts as Alexei Ledowsky, Serenty Schriborin, Andreij Mitkow, and Mirija Gromov.[3] No other evidence of Soviet sub-orbital manned flights ever came to light.[2]
High-altitude equipment tests[edit]
A 1959 edition of Ogoniok published an article and photos of three high-altitude parachutists: Colonel Pyotr Dolgov, Ivan Kachur and Alexey Grachov. Official records state that Dolgov was killed on November 1, 1962, while carrying out a high-altitude parachute jump from a Volga balloon gondola. Dolgov jumped at an altitude of 28,640 meters (93,970 feet). The helmet visor of Dolgov's Sokol pressure suit hit part of the gondola as he exited, de-pressurizing the suit and killing him.[4] Kachur is known to have disappeared around this time; his name has become linked to this equipment.[4] Grachov is thought to have been involved, with Dolgov and Kachur, in testing the high-altitude equipment. Russian journalist Yaroslav Golovanov suggested that high-altitude testing was exaggerated into a story that those parachutists died on a space flight.[4] In late 1959, Ogoniok carried pictures of a man identified as Gennady Zavadovsky testing high-altitude equipment (perhaps with Grachov and others). Zavadovsky would later appear on lists of dead cosmonauts, without a date of death or accident description.[4]
Russian journalist Yaroslav Golovanov, who researched the lost cosmonaut claims in his book "Cosmonaut #1", found and interviewed the real Alexey Timofeyevich Belokonov, a retired high-altitude parachutist. In this interview, Belokonov revealed more about his colleagues Dolgov, Kachur, Mikhailov, Grachov, Zavodovsky and Ilyushin, and confirmed they never flew to space. According to Belokonov, in 1963, after New York Journal American published an article on lost cosmonauts, listing the parachutists among them, Soviet newspapers Izvestia and Krasnaya Zvezda published a refutation that included testimonies and photographs of actual Belokonov, Kachur, Grachov and Zavodovsky. Parachutists also wrote an angry letter to New York Journal American editor William Randolph Hearst, Jr., which he ignored.[4]
Robert Heinlein[edit]
In 1960, Robert A. Heinlein wrote in his article Pravda means 'Truth' (reprinted in Expanded Universe) that on May 15, 1960, while traveling in Vilnius, in the Soviet republic of Lithuania, he was told by Red Army cadets that the Soviet Union had launched a man into orbit that day, but that later the same day it was denied by officials. Heinlein speculated that Korabl-Sputnik 1 was an orbital launch, later said to be unmanned, and that the retro-rockets had fired in the wrong attitude, making recovery efforts unsuccessful.[5]
According to Gagarin's biography, these rumours were likely started as a result of two Vostok missions equipped with dummies (Ivan Ivanovich) and human voice tape recordings (to test if the radio worked) that were made just prior to Gagarin's flight.[6]
In a U.S. press conference on February 23, 1962, Col. Barney Oldfield revealed that an unmanned space capsule had indeed been orbiting the earth since 1960, as it had become jammed into its booster rocket. According to the NASA NSSDC Master Catalog, Korabl Sputnik 1, designated at the time 1KP or Vostok 1P, did launch on May 15, 1960 (one year before Gagarin).[7] It was a prototype of the later Zenit and Vostok manned launchers. The onboard TDU had ordered the retrorockets to fire, but due to a malfunction of the attitude control system, the spacecraft was oriented upside-down, and the firing put the craft into a higher orbit. The re-entry capsule lacked a heat shield as there were no plans to recover it. Engineers had planned to use the vessel's telemetry data to determine if the guidance system had functioned correctly, so recovery was unnecessary.[8]
The Torre Bert recordings[edit]
The Judica-Cordiglia brothers are two former amateur radio operators who made audio recordings at Torre Bert that allegedly support the conspiracy theory that the Soviet space program covered up cosmonaut deaths in the 1960s. The pair claimed to have recorded audio of several secret Soviet space missions that ended in tragedy and mystery. This has generated public interest for more than 50 years,[9] despite a considerable number of detailed rebuttals to the brothers' claims.[10]
Vladimir Ilyushin[edit]
Vladimir Ilyushin, son of Soviet airplane designer Sergey Ilyushin, was a Soviet pilot and is purported to have been a cosmonaut, alleged by some to have actually been the first man in space on April 7, 1961—an honor generally attributed to Yuri Gagarin on April 12, 1961.[citation needed]
The theories surrounding this alleged orbital flight are that a failure aboard the spacecraft caused controllers to bring the descending capsule down several orbits earlier than intended, resulting in its landing in the People's Republic of China. The pilot was then held by Chinese authorities for a year before being returned to the Soviet Union. The international embarrassment that would have resulted from such an incident is cited as the Soviets' reason for not publicizing this flight—they reportedly focused their publicizing efforts on the subsequent successful flight of Yuri Gagarin instead.[citation needed]
However, there are reasons to disbelieve this allegation. Although both were communist states, relations between the Soviet Union and China were strained. The propaganda value of a Soviet pilot captured flying over Chinese territory would have given little reason for Chinese authorities to cooperate in a cover-up. Also, "bringing the capsule down several orbits earlier than intended" does not make sense, considering that the Vostok 1 mission involved a single orbit.[citation needed]
This theory originated on April 10, 1961, with Dennis Ogden, the Moscow correspondent of the British Communist newspaper Daily Worker, and was actually based on Ilyushin's medical treatment and care in China. According to many Soviet sources, and to the article in Komsomolskaya Pravda dated July 11, 2005, Ilyushin was a famous test pilot but he was never involved in the space programme. On June 5, 1960, his legs were seriously injured in a car accident. Ilyushin underwent medical treatment for a year in Moscow, then was sent to Hangzhou, China, for rehabilitation under specialists in Traditional Chinese medicine.[4][11][12] This explanation was also confirmed by the Soviet defector Leonid Vladimirov, an engineer who had personal contacts with Ilyushin in 1960, in his 1973 book The Russian Space Bluff, published in Frankfurt[13] (Russian translation of the book).
The theory gained some credibility in 1999 due to a documentary on the subject titled The Cosmonaut Cover-up. Interviewed in English, Sergei Khrushchev, son of former Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, said that the story was true and that Vladimir Ilyushin was actually held in China for over a year as a "guest" of the People's Republic of China. He was later returned to the Soviet Union, but by then the Gagarin legend was in place and the bizarre incident was covered up. The main reason for concealment was to not let the West see the schism between China and the USSR.[citation needed]
Vladimir Ilyushin never confirmed this theory, dying in 2010.[citation needed]
Moon-shot allegations[edit]
The Soviet Union lost the manned moon-landing phase of the Moon race to the United States. However, some sources claim that just before the historic Apollo 11 flight to the moon, the Soviets undertook an adventurous attempt to beat the Americans. Despite the unsuccessful first test launch of the new Soviet N1 rocket on January 20, 1969, it is alleged that a decision was made to send a manned Soyuz 7K-L3 craft to the moon using an N1. This attempt is alleged to have occurred on July 3, 1969, when it ended in explosion destroying the launch pad and killing the cosmonauts on board. Official sources state that the L3 was not ready for manned missions. Its moon-landing module, the LK, had been tested a few times but its orbiter, the 7K-LOK, had not been successfully tested by the closing of the moon-landing program at the end of 1974. The closing of the program was officially denied and maintained top secret until 1989.[citation needed]
This claim correlates with the late hoax about the unsuccessful moon-shot flight of Andrei Mikoyan. However, in reality, the second launch, like the first, was a test of the booster and was therefore unmanned. Even if cosmonauts had been on board, they would have been rescued by its launch escape system, which carried the dummy payload to safety 2 km from the pad.[14] One mission in the Soyuz program, Soyuz T-10-1, did see the spacecraft and cosmonauts rescued safely from a failed booster rocket by its launch escape system; it is the only documented case of such a system in use with a manned spacecraft.[citation needed]
There are also rumors, which appeared later in Omon Ra, a novel by Russian fiction writer Pelevin, that the Soviet automatic sample-return craft, Luna, and remote-controlled automatic moon rover, Lunokhod, were, due to failures in automation, manned by cosmonauts who had agreed to take part in suicide missions. However, there is not enough space in either the Luna or Lunokhod for even one cosmonaut, even excluding life support system space. There had been a plan to develop modified Lunokhods with additional controls for use as a transport in manned moon-landing missions but this plan ended with the moon-landing program.[citation needed]
Among the Lunas, a June 14, 1969, test failed to launch, and a July 13, 1969, test, Luna 15, launched but failed to land on the moon. Among the rovers, there was a failed launch on February 19, 1969, and two unsuccessful launches on November 10, 1970, and January 8, 1973.[citation needed]
Confirmed hoaxes[edit]
A number of claims have been confirmed as hoaxes:
Ivan Istochnikov[edit]
Officially Soyuz 2 was an unmanned spacecraft that was the docking target for Soyuz 3. However, Mike Arena, an American journalist, allegedly found in 1993 that an 'Ivan Istochnikov' and his dog 'Kloka' were manning Soyuz 2, and disappeared on October 26, 1968, with signs of having been hit by a meteorite. They had been "erased" from history by the Soviet authorities, who could not tolerate such a failure.[15]
The entire story was found to be a hoax perpetrated by Joan Fontcuberta[16] as a 'modern art exercise' that included falsified mission artifacts, various digitally manipulated images, and immensely detailed feature-length biographies that turned out to be riddled with hundreds of historical as well as technical errors. The exhibit was shown in Madrid in 1997 and the National Museum of Catalan Art in 1998. Brown University later purchased several articles, and put them on display themselves.
Mexico's Luna Cornea magazine however, failed to notice this, and ran issue number 14 (January/April 1998) with photos, and a story explaining the tragic and as-yet-untold truth.[17]
The name Ivan Istochnikov is a Russian translation of Joan Fontcuberta's name; translated to English from Russian reads "John of the Source".[18]
On June 11, 2006, Cuarto Milenio,[19] a mysteries program led by Iker Jiménez on the Spanish TV channel Cuatro, presented the story as possibly true. There is an entry in the Spanish skeptical blog Magonia [2] by the journalist Luis Alfonso Gámez.[20] An excerpt from Cuarto Milenio is included.
Pavel Popovich and Vitali Sevastyanov[edit]
NASA radio monitoring service intercepted conversations between Pavel Popovich and Vitali Sevastyanov and a control center. The conversations appeared to originate from a Soviet Zond 6 spacecraft that was launched on November 10, 1968, and successfully flew for 7 days around the Moon. This was at a time of intense competition during the moon flyby phase of the Moon race between the USSR and the U.S. The Soviet L1/Zond spacecraft was almost ready for manned missions, although testing was not yet complete, and it was not unimaginable that the USSR might undertake a manned flyby using the L1/Zond spacecraft in order to beat the Americans.[citation needed]
It was soon clear, however, that these were test transmissions between two ground control centers with the Zond 6 intercepting and relaying the transmissions.[citation needed]
After the successful U.S. Apollo 8 manned flight around the Moon, the Soviet manned flyby missions lost political urgency. The first manned flight of L1/Zond spacecraft with Alexey Leonov and Valery Bykovsky planned for the end of 1968 was canceled and Zond spacecraft made only a few unmanned, automatic flights after that.[citation needed]
Andrei Mikoyan[edit]
Andrei Mikoyan was reportedly killed together with a second crew member in an attempt to reach the Moon ahead of the Americans in early 1969. Due to system malfunction, they failed to get into lunar orbit and shot past the Moon.[citation needed]
This story may have influenced the plot of an episode of the television series The Cape. The episode "Buried in Peace" first aired on October 28, 1996. In it, a shuttle crew on a mission to repair a communications satellite encounters a derelict Soviet spacecraft with a dead crew—the result of a secret attempt to send a manned mission to the moon 30 years earlier, before the United States. Tom Nowicki played Major Andrei Mikoyan in the story.[citation needed]
This story correlates with another claim about the unsuccessful second manned test flight of the N1 rocket.[citation needed]
In popular culture[edit]
- The May 1987 issue #122 (page 74-79) of Dragon Magazine features "Operation: Zenith", an article by Merle M. Rasmussen, creator of the Top Secret role-playing game, which includes the scenario "Code Name: Cancer", wherein a space shuttle crew is sent to rendezvous with a Soviet Cosmos satellite launched in 1963, they discover that the satellite was in fact a modified Vostok designed to deliver a nuclear payload; the cosmonaut aboard died when his life support system was exhausted following a launch into a higher than planned orbit.
- The July 1987 issue #123 (page 82-6) of Dragon Magazine features the article "Operation: Zondraker, Part 2", also by Rasmussen, which includes the scenario "Code Name: Starfall", wherein a team of agents explores the site of the failed Luna 15 lander, discovering that it was a manned mission, with two cosmonauts; one died instantly in the crash (identified as Nikolai L. Kuzmin), while the other, unidentified, cosmonaut died later as his oxygen supply ran out.
- A 1989 installment of Philip Bond's "Wired World", published in the UK comics anthology Deadline magazine, features a cosmonaut who crash-lands in a London park where the main characters are picnicking.

Ducks' Winnik remains hopeful about CBA talks
The divide between the NHL owners and players on a new collective bargaining agreement is significant and the threat of another lockout will become increasingly real if the two sides can't close the wide gap between their proposals during negotiating sessions Wednesday and Thursday in Toronto.
There are just 25 days left to Sept. 15 -- the date in which Commissioner Gary Bettman has promised to lock the players out if a new CBA is not reached. Training camps are slated to start the very next day and there is strong belief that there will be no NHL hockey until December -- or later.
As a member of the Ducks for only a month, Daniel Winnik is playing a much more important role these days as a member of the negotiation committee for the players' union. And he is optimistic that common ground can be reached before the day of reckoning.
"There's still time left," Winnik told the Register from his off-season home in Toronto. "Honestly, this is my first negotiation in terms of CBAs and being involved in something like this. Usually when you see these deals happen, they happen the nights of when it's supposed to expire.
"I think baseball is the only exception where they've actually got a CBA signed once (in 2011) prior to the expiration of the old one. There's close to 30 days left. A lot of time to get a deal done."
Now the question is how will the union, which is intent on not giving back like it did during the season-costing 2004-05 lockout, get the owners to come off their hard-line stance in which it wants the reduce the players' share of revenue from the current 57 percent to 46 percent -- or 43 as the union calculated -- and extend the path to unrestricted free agency from seven to 10 years.
There are other critical differences. The league wants contracts to go no longer than five years in length and many owners are also seeking to extend the maximum length of entry-level deals for young players from three years to five. They also want to get rid of salary arbitration.
The irony is Philadelphia Flyers owner Ed Snider has recently signed forwards Wayne Simmonds and Scott Hartnell to six-year contract extensions and famously struck out on a 14-year, $110-million offer sheet to star Nashville defenseman Shea Weber, which the Predators matched.
What Snider did was well within the rules of the current system but it also flies in the face of the owners' proposal and creates the appearance that there is a conflict between teams of large and small NHL markets.
The union has called for increased revenue sharing between teams to counter the players' willingness to keep the hard salary cap and limit their revenue growth rate to 2 percent next season, 4 percent in 2013-14 and 6 percent in 2014-15 before returning to a 57 percent share in the fourth and final year.
It claims that at least $465 million and possibly $800 million would go back to owner's hands. The proposal also addresses mid-to-lower revenue teams such as the Ducks, Dallas Stars, New Jersey Devils and New York Islanders, who do not qualify for revenue sharing because they are located in markets in which there are 2.5 million television households or more.
But while NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr and his associates went outside the box to bridge the "meaningful gulf", Bettman responded by saying "there is still a wide gap between us with not much time to go. I think it's fair to say that the sides are still apart, far apart, and have different views of the world and the issues."
Some players were taken aback by the tone of Bettman's comments but Winnik wasn't.
"I kind of expected that reaction from them," he said. "We knew that they wouldn't say, 'Hey, this is a great proposal. Where do we sign?' We thought there would be some aspects [they wouldn't agree with], like especially the revenue sharing.
"You take it as it is with Gary's comments. He's right. We probably are far off on the number of things sharing-wise when you see the reduction they asked us to take and our proposal. ... I know some players were shocked at Gary's comments. But anyone that's close to the negotiations I don't think was shocked."
Winnik said he's eagerly wanted to take an increased role within the players' union since his days with Colorado and has enjoyed seeing the sport beyond the ice.
"You see the owners' perspective and you see the players' perspective," he said. "You also see the league's perspective. Just a lot of little things that I'm sure are overlooked as players, you really get a handle on in these meetings."
Winnik is also impressed with Fehr and credits the one-time head of the Major League Baseball players' union with forging an NHL membership that he believes is stronger than ever.
"I think he's so calm," the five-year veteran said. "It seems like nothing fazes him. He's done this for so long and he keeps everyone calm. Some people want to get frustrated but Don explains it all. He's been a great effect for the PA in general.
"I was a PA rep back when Paul Kelly was the director. It seems it was in much worse shape than it is now. It's a completely well-organized association and all the credit goes to Don and the people that he's brought with him."
The presence of the game's biggest stars like Sidney Crosby, Alex Ovechkin and Steven Stamkos at some negotiating sessions has also left an imprint in Winnik's mind.
"I think it's a real good thing when they come to the meetings," Winnik said. "A lot of [players] can't get to the meetings based on location. But when they can come, it's really important for our association. It kind of shows the league that they're into this as well."
Public sentiment appears to be on the side of the players this time around and Fehr has appealed to that as he's repeatedly expressed that none of the players or union officials have talked about stopping the season.
"We put forth a proposal that works and makes a lot of sense," Fehr told the Vancouver Province on Tuesday after briefing more than 30 players over two days in Kelowna, B.C. "We think there's enough time if the owners are interested in pursuing that approach.
"The players have not even discussed shutting down the game on their own initiative. All those thoughts have been on the other side."
Winnik wouldn't comment on whether the players will make an adjustment to their proposal. He also said he wouldn't go so far as to say the onus is on the owners to bridge the gap.
"It's got to work for both sides," he said. "It can't be a one-sided deal. To say it's on the owners, I think, would be too much. We want to settle this ... and I think they do as well. I just think both sides are focused on getting a deal that works for us and collectively as a whole."
So while the hockey world braces for empty arenas when opening night arrives Oct. 11, Winnik remains dogged in his optimism that there will be action on the ice.
"If it's got to be done on the 16th, it'll get done the 16th," he said. "I'm pretty confident that we can get a deal done."

Live Updates - Islanders at Flyers 3/28/13
by Travis Betts / New York IslandersLive Updates - Islanders at Flyers
7:00 p.m. - Wells Fargo Center - Philadelphia, PA
Pre-GameFirst trip to Philadelphia for the squad this season. Isles lost to the Flyers at home back in February. Eric Boulton back in the lineup in favor of Marty Reasoner. Radek Martinek and Joe Finley are the other Islanders scratches. Philadelphia has Nicklas Grossmann, Tye McGinn and Harry Zolnierczyk scratched.
Lauren Hart and her super-human lung capacity give us the Anthem, and we're set to drop the puck.
1st Period
3:47: The game's first penalty is going to Mr. Lubomir Visnovsky for interference during a Flyers chip and chase.
4:14: Scott Hartnell scores on the power play to make it 1-0. Claude Giroux took the zone, pulled up along the left wing boards and found Hartnell in the middle. His shot went underneath Evgeni Nabokov's glove. Wayne Simmonds, who drew the penalty, gets the secondary.
6:21: Colin McDonald and Scott Hartnell fight at center ice behind the play. Both will sit five minutes.
10:47: Bailey-Nielsen-Okposo line puts on good pressure; feels like a power play. Nothing in the net though, despite a couplf of good looks from Mark Streit. Shots: NYI 10 PHI 3.
17:25: Turnover in the neutral zone leads to the Flyers second goal. Mike Knuble forced the turnover near center ice and went across the ice to Giroux, who dished it back on Knuble on a 2-on-1. The veteran forward deked around Nabokov and slid it across the goal line.
20:00: Frans Nielsen backhands a pass back to the line, and Andrew MacDonald's one-timer goes through traffic and in off the inside of Ilya Bryzgalov's pads. Unfortunately, time had expired, so that one doesn't count.
End 1st: PHI 2 NYI 0. Shots: NYI 14 PHI 9.
2nd Period
5:01: Flyers have had the early control, outshooting the Isles 7-2 so far in the frame. Still 2-0 PHI though.
7:30: Nabokov with a pad save on a shot from the top of the zone, and a great stop on Simmonds' rebound, keeping the Isles in this one. Shots: NYI 15 PHI 20 (11-1 Flyers this period).
8:51: Isles showing a heartbeat again. Aucoin with a shot from the right side, but Bryzgalov holds on.
9:43: Kurtis Foster going to the box for cross-checking. Second PP of the game for the Isles.
11:43: No goals on that power play, but the Isles are back into the flow of the game. Still 2-0 home team.
15:35: Great kick save by Nabokov on Maxime Talbot on a 2-on-1 chance. Shots: NYI 21 PHI 21.
19:00: John Tavares scores and that should help momentum going into the intermission. He made a blind pass toward Matt Moulson, but it glanced off Luke Schenn's skate, then off Erik Gustafsson's skate and in. 21st of the season for JT. Kyle Okposo and Moulson with the helpers. PHI 2-1.
End 2nd: PHI 2 NYI 1. Shots: NYI 24 PHI 23. Brayden Schenn will start the third period in the penalty box after tripping Nabokov behind the Isles net. Evgeni had his back turned to the forechecker while he played the puck, and went down to the ice after contact. Nabby stayed down for a second, but skated off under his own power. NOT a popular call in the building.
3rd Period
They've changed the scoring on Tavares' goal. Streit gets the assist, not Okposo. Tavares from Streit and Moulson.
5:01: Nabokov makes a save through traffic on Luke Schenn. Still 2-1 Flyers.
9:33: TV timeout. Still 2-1 PHI. Shots: NYI 28 PHI 27.
10:04: McDonald scores, and this thing is tied at 2-2. Michael Grabner saw Keith Aucoin near the goal line, who made a slick one-touch pass to McDonald in the slot. The winger went blocker-side on Bryzgalov for his fifth of the campaign.
15:37: A little deflection and the Isles take their first lead of the game, 3-2. McDonald again. Initial shot was blocked in front, but he got the puck back and fired it off a defenseman and in. Looked like it went off of Bruno Gervais and changed direction away from Bryzgalov. Matt Martin and Casey Cizikas with the assists.
18:26: Flyers call timeout after an icing. Their net is empty.
18:28: Frans Nielsen goes to the box for a delay of game right off the draw, and the Isles will have to finish 4-on-6.
19:30: They hack away at it, and finally it goes in.
19:59: Luke Schenn to the box for interference. Isles will start overtime on the PP.
End 3rd: The good news is the Isles get a point. The bad news is it could have been two. Tied at 3-3 going to OT. Shots: NYI 33 PHI 34.
4:03: Nabokov with a big save. Each goalie has made three in the extra period. Teams have bent without breaking defensively.
End OT: Late Flyers surge produces nothing. We're headed to the shootout, which has been kind to the Isles this year. Shots: NYI 36 PHI 36.

By Rich Binsacca. "In merchandising, the purpose is to engage all of the senses," says Gabe Pasquale, vice president of marketing for Spectrum Skanska, a builder in Valhalla, N.Y. "Color engages both emotion and feel. You hit two senses at once."
At Mansion Ridge, a 220-unit community of golf villas in Monroe, N.Y. (about 60 miles from Manhattan), Pasquale needed to merchandise models to attract above-market prices. "The townhome market was dead above $300,000," he says. "We needed to design something that would change the perception of the market and attract a higher-profile buyer."
Color became an obvious -- and distinctive -- way to push the envelope. On volume spaces and accent areas, especially, Pasquale and interior designer Lita Dirks sought to use color and texture to create "flash points" that would be memorable to prospective buyers. "Our philosophy is, 'if you spend the money to build it, you should spend the money to show it off'," says Pasquale.
The Highland model's formal living room, for instance, features a tapestry over the fireplace to accentuate the height of the wall, while bold colors pervade the kitchen, bedrooms, and baths. "We wanted to be playful with color and texture," says Pasquale, who warns that such a tactic requires a patient painting subcontractor.
In the guest bedroom, the design team recycled tin ceiling tiles to create a unique and charming headboard. "Its texture and Old World style creates impact and a memory," Pasquale notes.
Mansion Ridge opened in June 2001 with prices in the low $300s and is poised to sell out ahead of schedule this year. Several buyers have taken the hint and incorporated more color in their homes. "They find that color really adds a lot to their homes, in terms of comfort and sophistication," says Pasquale.

Food Play
You can have fun in your kitchen and still stay on track for your weight loss goals by 'playing' with the way you normally cook and prepare meals. Think about your time in the kitchen as an adventure -- you may not always get where you are going the way you initially planned, but there is a lot to be learned and enjoyed along the way.
● Use the Fresh & Free Additions with sandwiches, burgers, pizza and pasta dishes by loading on fresh vegetables -- experiment with different combinations: arugula and onion; bell peppers, carrots and snap peas; cauliflower and yellow squash.
● Incorporate nonfat flavor enhancers like lemon or lime juice, vegetable juice, basil, cayenne pepper, cilantro, curry, garlic, sage, tarragon and thyme.
● Get your smoothie on -- come up with creative combinations to blend with 1 cup nonfat milk: 1 small banana and ¾ cup berries; ½ cup coconut water, leftover steamed broccoli (really!) and 1 small mango; ½ cup each cantaloupe and honeydew melon.
● Replace all your regular ingredients with low-fat or nonfat versions of the same: mayo, cream cheese, salad dressing, milk, yogurt.
● Use whole grains in place of white breads or processed pastas. Whole-grain cereals, oatmeal and cooked grains get lively when you mix in fruits or vegetables.
When it's time to sit down, enjoy your cooking experience even more by arranging your meals on your favorite plates and bowls. Make an occasion out of cooking well for yourself, and enjoy being in your kitchen as part of your meal planning!

A New York Times bestseller that has changed the way readers view the ecology of eating, this revolutionary book by award winner Michael Pollan asks the seemingly simple question: What should we have for dinner? Tracing from source to table each of the food chains that sustain us - whether industrial or organic, alternative or processed - he develops a portrait of the American way of eating. The result is a sweeping, surprising exploration of the hungers that have shaped our evolution, and of the profound implications our food choices have for the health of our species and the future of our planet.
About the Author
Few writers have done more to revitalize our national conversation about food and eating than Michael Pollan, an award-winning journalist and bestselling author whose witty, offbeat nonfiction shines an illuminating spotlight on various aspects of agriculture, the food chain, and man's place in the natural world.
Pollan's first book, Second Nature: A Gardener's Education (1991), was selected by the American Horticultural Society as one of the 75 best books ever written about gardening. But it was Botany of Desire, published a full decade later, that put him on the map. A fascinating look at the interconnected evolution of plants and people, Botany... was one of the surprise bestsellers of 2001. Five years later, Pollan produced The Omnivore's Dilemma, a delightful, compulsively readable "ecology of eating" that was named one the ten best books of the year by The New York Times and Washington Post.
A professor of journalism at the University of California at Berkeley, Pollan is a former executive editor for Harper's and a contributing writer for The New York Times, where he continues to examine the fascinating intersections between science and culture.

"An eater's manifesto ... [Pollan's] cause is just, his thinking is clear, and his writing is compelling. Be careful of your dinner!"
-"The Washington Post"
"Thoughtful, engrossing ... You're not likely to get a better explanation of exactly where your food comes from."
-"The New York Times Book Review"
"Michael Pollan has perfected a tone-one of gleeful irony and barely suppressed outrage-and a way of inserting himself into a narrative so that a subject comes alive through what he's feeling and thinking. He is a master at drawing back to reveal the greater issues."
-"Los Angeles Times"
"If you ever thought 'what's for dinner' was a simple question, you'll change your mind after reading Pollan's searing indictment of today's food industry-and his glimpse of some inspiring alternatives.... I just loved this book so much I didn't want it to end."

WASHINGTON House Speaker John A. Boehner of Ohio did not rule out a rise in the top income tax rate below the level President Barack Obama wants, indicating that he has more room to compromise on taxes if the White House comes forward with flexibility in other aspects of deficit negotiations.
"There are a lot of things that are possible to come from revenue, if the president seizes the opportunity," Boehner said when asked about a top tax rate increase.

Colorectal Diseases |
I had a cyst after my delivery(2yrs ago) that end up to anal fistula. I want to do surgery,seton, is it good idea? how long it takes? shall i do it? i scare! please help me. I am in pain, that i had it for long time
A Seton keeps the external portion of the fistula open so that infection cannot accumulate under the skin. Occasionally it is done in the office, but often requires anesthesia to be placed. See an expert in proctology, so you can discuss all your options for treatment of this condition; there may be others besides a Seton.
