text: United Will No Longer Boot Seated Passengers for Crew Airline changes policy to avoid another boarding fiasco By John Johnson, Newser Staff Posted Apr 16, 2017 3:30 PM CDT 88 comments Comments A United Airlines passenger plane at Newark Liberty International Airport in Newark, N.J. (AP Photo/Mel Evans, File) (Newser) – United Airlines is changing its policy to try to prevent a repeat of last week's boarding disaster. The bad news: United employees who need a seat still get priority. The good news: You won't be yanked out of your seat to make room for them. Under the shift, once passengers have boarded, they are safe and will not be removed from the plane, period. United employees who need to fly must check in an hour before boarding, reports CNN, meaning passengers can still be denied their seat, but they'll find out at the gate. No crew member "can displace a customer who has boarded an aircraft," according to a United email obtained by TMZ. A United spokesperson confirmed the policy change, calling it "one of our initial steps in a review of our policies." Meanwhile, the ridicule continued on Saturday Night Live, with one sketch managing to take into account both the United mess and the Pepsi commercial miscue, notes the Hill. See it here.

The Making of the Virginian of the Allan Line
Just at the close of 1904, one of the most interesting products of the year was launched from the yard of Alexander Stephen & Sons (Limited), namely, the new turbine steamer Virginian, of 11,200 tons, for the Allan Line.
The Virginian is sister ship to the Victorian, launched by Workman, Clark & Company, Belfast, in August, 1904 and at present fitting out for sea, and they will be the first turbine liners to engage in the cross-Atlantic service.
Both vessels will be placed on the Canadian mail and passenger service from Liverpool, the Victorian sailing on her maiden voyage to Halifax, Nova Scotia, and St. Johns, N. B., on March 23, and the Virginian for the same ports on April 6. These vessels mark a notable advance in the progress of the steam turbine as applied to ocean steamers.
The Virginian's dimensions are 540 feet length overall, 60 feet beam, and 41 feet depth. She has been constructed under the supervision of the Allan Company's representatives, to the highest class in the British Corporation, and to the passenger requirements of both the British Board of Trade and the American laws.
She has accommodation for 1,650 passengers, 470 first-class, 240-second class and 940 third class. The vessel has a poop, long bridge, and forecastle, with large houses in the wells between the hatches, the tops of the poop and houses being arranged as promenades for passengers, and sheltered by boat decks, which again form promenades sheltered by awnings.
On the bridge deck is a long deck house containing first-class staterooms, with a wide alleyway on each side; above is the promenade deck with deck houses containing the first-class music and other saloons, sheltered by the boat deck, which is itself a wide promenade having the officers' quarters and navigating bridge at the fore end, and on each side a range of boats the full length of the deck.
The steamer is specially designed for the conveyance of the Canadian mails and passengers, five decks being fitted up for their accommodation, but she has also considerable cargo space in the holds fore and aft. The first-class dining saloon, at the fore end of the bridge, has accommodations for 200 persons.
The decorations are Georgian style, the paneling of mahogany, toned to a deep color relieved by inlays. A large and airy nursery has been provided for younger passengers. The second saloon, off the main deck, is arranged to seat over 200 passengers, and is pleasingly decorated. In the 'tween decks forward and aft of the cabin passengers are state rooms for the third-class passengers.
The deck below is also fitted up with staterooms for the same class, but with portable divisions, so that when not required these rooms can be removed. The cabin accommodation is heated throughout by steam, so arranged that each individual passenger can modify the heat to suit himself.
Electric lights fitted throughout, and there is also an installation of the Marconi telegraph. The turbines, which are being supplied by the Parsons Marine Steam Turbine Company (Limited), are to drive the vessel at a high rate of speed. Steam of high pressure will be supplied to the turbines by nine single-ended boilers fitted with forced draft.
The boilers and auxiliary machinery have been supplied from the engine works of the builders, Alexander Stephen & Sons (Limited). The turbine machinery is not yet in a condition to describe, but will be rapidly completed. Mr. Nathaniel Dunlop, senior partner of the Allan Company, says that in adopting the turbine method of propulsion they were aware that for ocean navigation it would require important and special adaptations, owing to the enormous power to be developed, and the need of great stopping and reversing power for maneuvering purposes.
Mr. Parsons examined the problem and satisfied both himself and them that it could be solved. They had no hesitation in accepting his assurance, and nothing has occurred in the process of construction to disturb their confidence in the system. He made this statement because a paragraph appeared some time ago in the American press to the effect that the turbines had not answered the expectations of the Allan Line, and had not come up to the contract power. That statement was actually issued before the turbines were made, and before any trials of their power were possible.
The turbine promised many advantages to travelers by sea. Its noiseless and uniform motion imparting a corresponding measure of steadiness to the ship in heavy weather. The speed, too, of these turbines on the Atlantic would reduce the time at sea, and, together with the shorter mileage of the Canadian route, and its land-sheltered navigation on the Canadian side, should make it a favorite line of travel to and from the American continent.
Excerpt from "Shipbuilding in Scotland in 1904" by Benjamin Taylor, Marine Engineering, New York, Volume 10, No. 5, May 1905, P. 212.

Staten Island Chuck made his yearly prediction last week, and by the looks of the weather lately, the famous groundhog's prognostication will be accurate.
He woke up on Thursday and did not see his shadow, which, according to folklore, means it'll be an early spring.
With more mild temperatures ahead, here's what you and your family can do to enjoy some fun time outdoors.
Remember that bike you put away after Labor Day? Well, it is probably collecting a lot of dust; break it out from the back of the garage and strap on a helmet, because this is the perfect time to get ready for bathing suit season.
Visit nycbikemaps.com to check out the bike trails that you can take from the north to south end of the Island.
If biking an entire trail with the family seems a bit too ambitious, then take a spin around your local park.
Biking not your thing? Then check out a session of Yoga in the Park, at the Greenbelt Nature Center, Sea View, every Saturday morning, starting at 9:30 a.m.
Certified yoga instructor Nancy Kaufman teaches the ancient art form that incorporates breathing techniques and muscle-elongating poses against the backdrop of the beautiful woodlands.
Classes are $13 for Greenbelt Conservancy members and $15 for nonmembers. To learn more, call 718-351-3450.
Finding the perfect spot to fish is not very difficult thanks to several designated fishing ponds and lakes, along Staten Island north and east shores.
While most offer freshwater fishing, like at Silver Lake, there are a couple of watery reserves for saltwater angling. Great Kills Park offers designated fishing locations by the marina and at Crooks Point.
To learn where you can go to set up a pole, visit nycgovparks.org.
OK, so we've all heard about flash mobs, coordinated dance routines by a dozen or more people, which spontaneously erupt at the most unlikely places.
So what about starting one with your friends and family?
Thanks to YouTube, you can learn a dance routine to any one of your favorite songs. Be sure to practice as much as you can and then break out the performance at your local park.
Designate someone to video record the dance and post the clip to the Internet so that your flash mob might be the next YouTube sensation.
When the kids and I just don't know what to do, we take a trip back to the past at Historic Richmond Town, located at 441 Clarke Ave.
A simple walk to look at the architecture inspires our imaginations about those who may have lived there in the past. We even make up stories — fake family members who may have owned the property and what they used to look like.
On Thursday mornings at the Historical Museum, your child can enjoy magical stories, crafts and even some dancing. You must call to make a reservation and admission is $3 for each child and free for adults.
To learn more, call 718-351-1611 extension 280.
To listen to songs steeped in tradition, attend the Tavern Concert this Saturday featuring Linda Russell and Company.
The singer and songwriter sets her songs to the tunes of a pluck-string instrument called a dulcimer. Her first show is at 7:30 p.m. and is $18 for nonmembers and $15 for Staten Island Historical Society Members.
Call 718-351-1611 extension 281 for reservations.
Sherrina Navani's Family Fun column appears in the Relationships section of the Advance.

A UNITED KINGDOM is based on extraordinary true events. In 1947, Seretse Khama, the King of Botswana, met Ruth Williams, a London office worker. They were a perfect match, yet their proposed marriage was challenged not only by their families but by the British and South African governments. The latter had recently introduced the policy of apartheid and found the notion of a biracial couple ruling a neighboring country intolerable. South Africa threatened the British: either thwart the couple or be denied access to South African uranium and gold and face the risk of South Africa invading Botswana.
"An interracial romance between a British clerk and African royalty highights a historical flashpoint and offers a primo acting showcase for Oyelowo and Pike. It's a defiant cry from the heart." -Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
"Vividly depicted by Oyelowo and Pike, the noble pair show that sometimes love and determination can make a difference." -Peter Keough, Boston Globe

RVIA Applauds SBA Dealer Program Relaunch
February 11, 2011 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on RVIA Applauds SBA Dealer Program Relaunch
The Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA) applauds this week's relaunch of the Small Business Administration's (SBA) Dealer Floor Plan (DFP) Pilot Loan Program for the improvements the new effort includes to increase access to inventory financing for RV dealers.
"The relaunched program includes significant enhancements over the original program that RVIA and the RV industry pushed to have included — the new maximum loan size of $5 million, the ability for RV dealers with a higher net worth of up to $15 million to participate, and the extension of the program to three years," RVIA President Richard Coon stated in a news release. "We are hopeful these changes will remove key barriers to lender participation, thereby attracting more lending sources and providing RV dealers with additional floorplan opportunities."
The Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 included a provision for relaunching SBA's Dealer Floor Plan (DFP) Pilot program, which first became available in July 2009. The pilot is part of the SBA's overall 7(a) loan guaranty program. Key provisions of the relaunched program which RV dealers and lenders may use starting Wednesday (Feb. 9) include:
- A loan amount between $500,000 and $5 million (previously limited to $2 million), for a term of not more than five years.
- A new size standard allowing larger businesses to qualify as a small business under the new DFP, as follows: the maximum tangible net worth of the business cannot exceed $15 million; and, the average net income after federal taxes (excluding carry-over losses) for the two full fiscal years prior to the date of the application for DFP is not more than $5 million.
- An advance rate of up to 100%of the value of the goods to be purchased may be offered by lenders.
- An SBA guaranty of 75% on floorplan lines of credit. In the original DFP, the guaranty for RVs, boats and manufactured homes had been 60%, while autos had the 75% rate. Now, all have the 75% guaranty.
- In addition to the acquisition of titleable inventory for retail sales, loan proceeds can now also be used to refinance existing floorplan lines of credit with another lender or to refinance/replace existing floorplan lines of credit with the same lender.
- An extension of the DFP program to Sept. 30, 2013 (was Sept. 30, 2010).
- A floorplan lender with at least $1 billion in floorplan lines of credit in its current portfolio may qualify for delegated authority under the new DFP Pilot, which will expedite the loan approval process for small business owners and allows more autonomy for lenders. Delegated floorplan lenders can use SBA Express forms and utilize their own policies, procedures, internal controls and documentation.
- "Eligible retail goods" that can be purchased under the new DFP are still automobiles, recreational vehicles, boats, and manufactured homes which can be titled under state law.
"This is the second generation of the SBA DFP Pilot Program," said Dianne Farrell, RVIA's vice president of government affairs. "In speaking with SBA staff, they are confident that the enhancements better meet the needs of the banking community and will lead to more floorplan financing options being available to dealerships, which are the cornerstone of many local business communities."
A coalition of trade associations, including RVIA, the Recreation Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA), marine, auto, trailer and manufactured housing dealers and manufacturers worked to ensure the new DFP program contained these improvements.
The rules and regulations for the pilot are now available on the website of The Federal Register, and in print editions. A procedural guide to the program will be posted on the SBA website at: http://www.sba.gov/content/dealer-floor-plan-financing-program-0.
Borrowers interested in obtaining a DFP loan should contact their lender or their nearest SBA field office to get a list of SBA-approved lenders in their area who may be participating in the program. Local district offices and contact information, as well as information on this and other SBA programs and resources, can be found at www.sba.gov or by calling the SBA Answer Desk at (800) U-ASK-SBA or TDD (704) 344-6640.

We are back in the dog business. Actually, we're in the puppy business, and there's a huge difference.
Ever listen to a phone conversation and immediately know by the tone that whatever is going on isn't good?
My wife had some surgery last month, and I was sitting in her hospital room after work toward dinner time. Her cell phone rang, and I assumed it was a friend to check on how she was doing.
"He was where? ... I wonder how he got there? ... But you got him? ... Well, thank you … No, we'll get him in a little bit. Thank you."
"Guess what?"
I didn't have to guess. I knew. It was our new dog, which we'd owned for all of about a week. Kirby was supposed to be in the house, but he was in the front yard – in the pouring rain.
Our neighbors swooped him up and called. When I dashed home to get him, an interrogation yielded no clue, and not even threatening a stern letter in his file would get him to admit how a 15-pound dog got out of the house.
But I think this was on me. When I left after checking on him at noon, I locked the door, but it didn't quite shut. Feverish scratching of the door pried it open enough for him to reach the glass door, which wasn't latched either.
We are back in the dog business. Actually, we're in the puppy business, and there's a huge difference.
We had to put down Ranger in November. He was a 10-year-old border collie mix. He and I were kindred spirits. He lost a lot of energy in his last difficult year, but some of that, too, was just maturing into a bit more sedate dog.
After nine months, we felt it was time for another dog. In early July, we went to the SPCA kennel after seeing a photo of "Kevin," who caught our eye. He was part of a litter, along with Marvin and Carlie.
He was the one, and we reserved him that day, although we couldn't pick him up until all his shots were finished nearly a month later.
Kevin became Kirby, which is a habitational name from the Old Norse Church in Northern England that means "chews on anything he can get his teeth on and doesn't show one bit of remorse about it."
We'd been warned by others who had replaced an old dog, and I thought, well, you just got a hyperactive puppy. It won't happen to us. Right.
This little border collie mix – and that mix looks like a lot of dachshund – became an immediate untrained expert of silently going into my closet and dragging out shoes to gnaw on. He was like a little quiet Cujo. He never barked, but the trouble he could find.
It didn't help that my wife had surgery, which left Kirby alone at the house for extended periods. I didn't want him in the backyard because I didn't trust him.
I tried to cordon him off in the kitchen, which became a joke. So I thought, forget it. He can have free run of the house for a few hours and I'll puppy-proof the place.
I put down a week's worth of newspapers around the house, but he had the uncanny knack of finding a bare spot the size of a golf cup to go poop on it.
I cringed when I came home at noon and later in the afternoon daily for a week. The first day there were seven of my shoes strung through the house. I didn't know I had seven shoes. Kirby pried the closet door open, again with the nose.
He chewed through a phone charger cord. He chewed the cover and part of the shell of a DVD cover, which I had borrowed, by the way. He got up on the back of the couch and chewed the end of the window blinds.
It was suggested we buy some bitter apple spray to slow that down, which we have. Only time will tell. I bought Kirby an $11 chewing ring that 4 out of 5 vets recommend. He's ignored that in favor of chewing a $2.99 duck from the bargain bin at Petco.
I've tried to get some energy out of him with a harness and leash. After years of not thinking about it, I forgot that simple leash walking is a learned skill. He digs his four little paws in like some stubborn donkey being dragged off a 1,000-foot cliff. It takes 10 minutes to navigate the length of the backyard.
It's getting better, though. There's more of a routine now. We'll charitably call it a work in progress. But if Kirby doesn't completely shape up in the next 15 years, he's outta here.

It's well known that Argentina's arts and antiques of great quality have positioned our country as the moment's hot place for dealers and collectors. This country features a unique culture with the best influxes of Latin America and Europe. Buenos Aires, Argentina's capital city has always been a place where all the trends converge from Europe, the States and world wide locations. This country of immigrants was built upon influences, cultural and material brought by those newcomers from their motherlands back in the early days of our republic in the early 19th century. The cultural treasures brought by the flow of Europeans from the East and the West, were early milestones for the art, antiques and collectibles markets to be. But it was thanks to a local trend of wealth, distinction, and sophistication that outstanding old continent products and works of art, reached our southern shores. The all mighty argentine pampas field positioning our country as the World's barn, its landlords and societal individuals linked it, would live in Argentina as if it was France, England, Germany or the Italian countryside. They bought everything back in the centres of culture, from art, and furniture to bathroom ware of all kind. In that way, the generations to come, had an early, strong and wonderful material and cultural heritage to develop upon. Our rich melting pot history and culture paired to a strong Dollar and Euro, positions Argentina today as a paradise for art dealers and collectors from around the globe. That's why Bob Frassinetti Art & Antique Dealer has a perfect customized option for those who want more, those who wish to take the best advantage of this special market in the most effective, simple yet superb way.

Rhinoplasty Scars
In considering rhinoplasty, many patients are rightfully concerned about the resultant rhinoplasty scar, especially if you are going through a revision rhinoplasty, where there is a pre-existing scar from another surgeon's previous rhinoplasty. While certain endoscopic techniques leave no trace of a visible scar, those may not be the best ways to get the desired results. For this reason, Dr. Torkian performs many rhinoplasties with what's known as an open incision. This technique allows him to fully visualize the underlying nasal structure and make virtually any change necessary.
As a facial plastic surgery specialist who has been delivering rhinoplasties for decades, Dr. Torkian is trusted by his patients and peers to correctly decide the best possible technique for every individual case. To learn more about the two primary types of rhinoplasty incisions and their resultant scars, please read more below.
Rhinoplasty Incision Options
In delivering rhinoplasty, Dr. Torkian chooses from two incision options. Each of these present distinct advantages, and the incision used is based on your unique nasal structure, as well as the exact issue to be corrected. The incision options are as follows:
Open or External Approach
A newer approach, an open rhinoplasty is done with an incision made on the underside of the nose between the nostrils. It allows for full visualization of the underlying nasal structure and a greater array of correctional techniques.
Closed or Endonasal Approach
A more traditional technique, a closed rhinoplasty is performed with incisions placed inside the nostrils. Once these incisions are made, Dr. Torkian uses a series of specialized instruments to reshape the nose without exposing the entire nasal structure.
While the closed incision may sound like a more attractive option, patients frequently require the open incision to ensure best surgical outcomes in their particular case. If such patients are worried about a visible scar following surgery, they can rest assured that incisions used in an open or external rhinoplasty heal with minimal scarring.
In general, patients will see a reddish area for the first few days following surgery. Within one week, the sutures will dissolve or be removed, and the incision will be on its way to perfect healing. The redness improves within six to eight weeks, and the thin v-shaped scar will blend with the surrounding skin within six months. In fact, Dr. Torkian is so talented at closing his incisions that many patients cannot tell where their incision was after only two weeks following their surgery.
Before & Afters
The only way to truly evaluate a surgeon's skill and ability is to look at samples of their previous work. Click on the button below to see our gallery of before and after pictures from actual patients previously treated by Dr. Torkian.View Gallery

Discussion in 'BlackHat Lounge' started by Knoxgates, May 8, 2010.
Since yesterday i m getting like this this
1st page
After searching
same here, I also hate this new look of google
I don't like looking in the center, throws me off, will take some getting used too. Ideally i'd like to be able to toggle the left side on and off.
It annoys the shit outta me.
It reminds me of Yahoo search. Not the home page of course, but the results. It's shitty.
Why would Google copy Yahoo! ... ?
May be in the future you'll learn how to use Google search tools to optimize ur website and to get more visitors
Everything with Google has a value!
Goodbye simplicity.
The new buttons and the slight change in the Google logo looks good, but the beauty of Google has always been the simplicity.
"This is a search engine, here are your results".
Now it's more like "Lol we are social and stuff!".
Isn't this why they have the "Advanced Search" button?
He guys I just found out how to remove this annoying sidebar on google search results.
Install this firefox addon:
and install this greasemonkey script:
Good luck turning this crap off
just like they fucked youtoob they have now fucked this
god damn when will they learn?
When I first posted about this around a month ago (that's when Google first released the design) I never really got any replies lol. At first it was really annoying but I kind of got used to it now and it doesn't really bother me much, infact I'm starting to quite like it.
I agree with Tumbles though, well said.
Thanks, works great
I prefer the simplicity of the old one too but Ill get use to it soon.
Delete your cookies to remove that crap in firefox.
Tools --> Options --> Privacy --> Remove Cookies
I'm still getting used to the new look, no complaints so far but I liked the old one better
I had this same look back in November 2009, after few days it disapeared and now it's there again.
When I click the search button and the bar in the left appears I feel like killing someone.It annoys me so much,why mess a good thing?The same happened with youtube.We should make a petition or something and sign it,then send it to google to change it back.Dumb fucks...
And I thought I am alone in the jungle. I also got pissed off with this look... looks more like yahoo site explorer..
But its fluctuating.. sometime it becomes old style and most of time this shi*** look
I love Google.
thanks for the script, i tried to clear the cookies and i also installed a firefox addon, but they didn't help
this script works like a charm
edit: it seems nothing is perfect , it also disables the left navigation in yahoo mail
somebody able to modify the script to affect only google?
edit 2: nvm, i already have the solution, i didn't use greasemonkey lately so i forgot about this function: manage this script, exclude the sites what do you don't want to be affected by the script or include only google domains, maybe this one is easier
i don't like the new style too
Separate names with a comma.

Elon Musk Is the Madman We Need
We love to hate him, and we hate to love him. But the South Africa-born Canadian-American engineer/entrepreneur/impresario is a man fit for our times.
In the recent National Geographic Channel six-part docudrama MARS, Olivier Martinez played the "Elon Musk" role.
The French actor also famously played the guy who shacked up with Richard Gere's wife in the Academy Award-nominated 2002 erotic thriller Unfaithful.
Such a role may have prepared him to play the tech lothario. In real life, Musk married striking actress Talulah Riley — most recently of the hit HBO sci-fi/western thriller Westworld — twice.
And so it goes for the superstar CEO and product architect of electric car/energy storage powerhouse Tesla Motors Inc. (TSLA), a nerd/prodigy turned handsome entrepreneur who even lived the cliché of being bullied and beaten up as a youngster.
This curious amalgam — part Dr. Strangelove, part Dr. Emmett Brown, part Norville Barnes, part Warren Beatty — embodies the spirit of "be the change you wish to see in the world."
(No, that's not a direct Gandhi quote. The Mahatma actually said: "If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change toward him… We need not wait to see what others do.")
Despite the multiple failures of Musk's main venture, Tesla, to meet official production guidance, raw growth remains impressive.
For example, on Tuesday, Tesla announced fourth-quarter vehicle deliveries of 22,200, bringing 2016 deliveries to 76,230. That's nearly 4,000 below the bottom of the company's full-year guidance range of 80,000–90,000 vehicles.
|This curious amalgam — part Dr. Strangelove, part Dr. Emmett Brown, part Norville Barnes, part Warren Beatty — embodies the spirit of "be the change you wish to see in the world."
Only once during the past four years has Tesla met or exceeded its targets — in 2013, when it delivered 22,442, versus guidance of 20,000.
So yeah, another miss… but, oh yeah deliveries were up 50.5% year over year in 2016.
In tandem with ever-higher targets and the asymptotic approach of them — more important, even — is Musk's messianic pursuit of making Earth a better place to live… up to and until we can leave this planet and colonize the cosmos, namely Mars.
Interpreted by many observers as a move of desperation, Musk's June 2016 decision to merge another of his companies, SolarCity, into Tesla is indeed an apotheosis: Clean energy comes together, electric cars and sun-fed high-capacity storage batteries combining supply chains and sharing the same storefronts.
Musk is also CEO and chief technology officer of SpaceX, which is getting back to the launchpad on Sunday after a five-month layoff following the September 1, 2016, explosion of its Falcon 9 rocket.
SpaceX's and Musk's grand ambition is to put men and women on Mars.
In the interim, he and his company would like to more than double the number of Earth-orbiting satellites in order "to create a global internet hotspot 200 times faster than today's average connection speed," writes Vanessa Bates Ramirez at SingularityHub.
Meanwhile, NASA's Langley Research Center continues to explore ways of making the Red Planet habitable for humanity.
The space agency's latest concept is basically an inflatable igloo that solves multiple Martian residential problems:
The "Mars Ice Home" is a large inflatable torus, a shape similar to an inner tube, which is surrounded by a shell of water ice. The Mars Ice Home design has several advantages that make it an appealing concept. It is lightweight and can be transported and deployed with simple robotics, then filled with water before the crew arrives. It incorporates materials extracted from Mars, and because water in the Ice Home could potentially be converted to rocket fuel for the Mars Ascent Vehicle, the structure itself doubles as a storage tank that can be refilled for the next crew.
Another critical benefit is that water, a hydrogen-rich material, is an excellent shielding material for galactic cosmic rays — and many areas of Mars have abundant water ice just below the surface. Galactic cosmic rays are one of the biggest risks of long stays on Mars. This high-energy radiation can pass right through the skin, damaging cells or DNA along the way that can mean an increased risk for cancer later in life or, at its worst, acute radiation sickness.
Musk's Earth-bound projects have already benefitted from government help in the form of subsidies and tax breaks for "green" projects.
His Martian exploit will also be done in partnership with tax-supported government entities, including NASA.
But he's undeniably the most prominent independent force driving us skyward, though his lofty ambitions aren't without peer or competitor.
|"For me to be excited and inspired about the future, it's got to be the first option. It's got to be: We're going to be a spacefaring civilization."
Of course, Google and Facebook have their own plans to "wrap the Earth in internet."
China recently launched its biggest-ever rocket, part of the Middle Kingdom's effort to do stuff like establish space stations and put spy satellites in geostationary orbit.
The LM-5 will also power a lunar soil return mission and the launch of a Martian rover within the next several years.
Over the long term, the Chinese may even undertake a manned lunar mission.
China's private space industry is also in on the commercial satellite and space tourism games.
In an interview aired during one of the "docu-" segments of MARS, Musk said, "The future of humanity is fundamentally going to bifurcate along one of two directions: Either we're going to become a multiplanet species and a spacefaring civilization, or we're going be stuck on one planet until some eventual extinction event.
"In order for me to be excited and inspired about the future, it's got to be the first option. It's got to be: We're going to be a spacefaring civilization."
As he said when he detailed the lynchpin of his grandiose Martian plan on September 27, 2016, SpaceX's Interplanetary Transport System, Musk merely wants to "make Mars seem possible in our lifetimes."
It's about raising expectations.
And that's a good thing.
Old Things New
For Doug Jones, making "Old Things New" is a daily endeavor.
At his blog Logarithmic History, Doug, an anthropologist at the University of Utah, explores "the history of the universe — from the Big Bang to the end of the year — day by day."
Here's Doug to explain Logarithmic History:
Compressing the history of the universe into one year is not a new idea: Both Carl Sagan and Neil de Grasse Tyson did it, and you can get a 2015 Cosmic Calendar that shows the same idea. What's different about the version here? The earlier work uses a linear scale, dividing the age of the universe by the number of days in a year, so that every calendar day covers a constant 37.8 million years in the history of the universe. This is useful for dramatizing just how long "billions and billions" of years really is. But it means that most of the events that people are most interested in — including all of the evolution of biological and cultural complexity — happen late in the year. The Earth forms in early September. Dinosaurs go extinct on December 30, and all of human evolution and human history happen late on December 31.
At Logarithmic History, by contrast, I use a logarithmic scale. Other folks have proposed putting the history of the universe on a logarithmic scale; here I map that scale onto the course of one year. If you're a bit hazy about logarithms, all you have to know is that each day of the year covers a shorter period in the history of the universe than the preceding day (5.46% shorter). January 1 begins with the Big Bang and covers a full 751 million years. January 2 covers the next 711 million years, and so on. Succeeding days cover shorter and shorter succeeding intervals in the history of the universe. At this rate, a given calendar date covers only a 10th as much time as a date 41 days earlier.
On this logarithmic scale, Earth is formed on January 20, trilobites arise toward the end of February, and dinosaurs meet their doom on April 6. The middle of the year finds Homo erectus giving way to early versions of Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. October begins with King David and ends with Columbus. By December 7, we reach the year of the Beatles' first LP (1963). December 31 covers just one year, 2016; calendar time and history-of-the-universe time finally coincide at midnight.
Many of the world's religions follow a yearly calendar of sacred days; many nations have their annual holidays. Logarithmic History is a chance to celebrate, over the course of a year, our species' discovery of the deep history of the universe.
On Wednesday, I read about exactly why we are stardust.

A Sunday to Forget
BALTIMORE–The White Sox gave every indication that they were going to get to Oriole righthander Jeremy Guthrie in the early going today, but the runners they got on base never came around to score. As a result, Guthrie settled down and proceeded to stymie the Hose, giving up only a single run in eight innings of work as Baltimore hung on to win, 4-3.
The bats that were so silent in the season's early going and so explosive since the beginning of June have been back to being silent the past three games at Camden Yards. The big Sox blow today was the two-run home run by Ramon Castro (pictured above after slugging a homer earlier this season at the Cell ) in the ninth. Unfortunately it was too little too late.
The loss combined with the Twins 5-4 victory in Cleveland, decreased the Sox lead in the A.L. Central to a half-game. The South Siders are hoping for a split of the four-game series here tomorrow night with Edwin Jackson making his second Sox start.
Sox notes of note: After leaving last night's game with a "tweaked" knee, A.J. Pierzynski got his usual "day game after a night game" rest and should be good to go tomorrow night…Today, it was Gordon Beckham who was replaced as he strained a groin. Early word is that it's not serious…Speaking of injuries, Mark Teahen will spend a little more time rehabbing in Charlotte. Seems that the Sox want him to spend more time at a variety of positions. The longer Teahen's there, the more time they'll have to make a decision on the necessary roster move when he's ready to come back to the 25-man roster. And don't forget, rosters expand on September 1…Mark Buehrle pitched well enough to win if only the Sox bats were clicking. He gave up 10 hits, but only three earned runs in seven innings.

You have got your new dental veneers. Your teeth are now white and perfectly aligned without bleaching or the need to wear aligners. However, no matter how perfectly they fit, these veneers aren't a natural part of your body and you need to familiarise with some basics on how to live with and look after them.
You don't need to drastically change the way you care for your teeth once you get veneers. The width of each tooth will not be excessively increased, so flossing will not be a problem at all. Veneers are thicker than your natural tooth enamel, though you should use only non-abrasive fluoride toothpaste. Abrasive ones may sand out the shiny surface of the veneer and make it change colour over a long term. For the same reason you should only choose soft brushes, but it's not as important as the choice of the toothpaste.
Porcelain veneers are very tightly bound to the surface of your teeth, though the bonding agent isn't stronger than the veneer itself, so a part of it can be chipped, with or without parts of your natural teeth. Basically the only way for that to happen is a mechanical trauma. If you have a habit of grinding your teeth you have to report it to your dentist even before you commence with veneer smile design. Perhaps the dentist will recommend you to wear a mouthguard while sleeping.
It's not easy to damage a veneer, though you should not try to bite things that are particularly hard. There are no widely used foods which can cause veneer failure through applying excess mechanical force nor through excess acidification. On the other hand, using your teeth as a tool is not recommended.
Do not use your bite to screw or unscrew bottles and things alike, or forcibly pull something. Owing to the anatomy of your incisors, the veneers will cover the top, biting edge. You will be practically applying force using the veneer – not the actual tooth (tooth enamel). Porcelain is glass, and any excessive bending by pressure can make it break.
Despite the fact veneers are highly resistant to acidification, calcification and other chemical impacts, it's your natural teeth that remain under the veneers, so you have to keep up with your regular dental care.
How long veneers can hold on your teeth tightly varies greatly. It may be anywhere between seven and 30 years. This primarily depends on the choice of a good dentist, rather than some special maintenance you can undertake. If veneers are done poorly, no maintenance tasks will help extend their life beyond just several years.

The good route setting continues in Hachioji. Today climbers faced powerful and dynamic lines that saw a lot of tops. The Japanese team keeps crushing (they have 3 climbers in 1st position). There were no big surprises on the female round. On the male side, as usual, there was carnage.
Today the competition venue in Hachioji had a sizeable audience for a qualifying round, especially given that the entrance wasn't free (each ticket was a thousand yen, about 8 euros or 9 US dollars). According to official figures, almost 2 thousand people turned up to watch. The tickets for tomorrow are already sold out.
They certainly had a good time, cheering and clapping all day while enjoying some of the best competition bouldering on the planet. The route setters made it easy, offering climbable and dynamic problems, with a lot of dicey moves.
(also, a lot of people watched the comp online, thanks to the live stream offered by the Japanese Mountaineering Association)
We saw a lot of tops today, every problem was climbed by at least three climbers. The cutting points for the woman were 4T18 and 3T5 5B6. For the men 4T9 and 4T5 5B6. A total of 17 climbers topped 5 boulders.
The female side didn't have big surprises, but strong climbers like Leah Crane, Katja Kadic or Momoka Oda won't be climbing tomorrow.
The male round was as cruel as usual (just 20 spots for so many top dogs…). Some of the world cup finalists that didn't make the cut are Jan Hojer, Jernej Kruder, Rustam Gelmanov (who has some problems in his lower back and can't move as freely as he'd like), James Kassay, Michael Piccolruaz, Martin Stranik, Dave Barrans, Sean McColl, Rolands Rugens, Stefan Scarperi, Minoru Nakano or Sergii Topishko.
Team Japan has 8 climbers in the top 10, with Nonaka, Ogata and Hori in 1st place (Hori is tied with Chon with 5 flashes). France also had good results, 6 climbers in semis.
Semifinals tomorrow at 9am (UTC+9). Live at ifsc-climbing.org
Oh… and if you think you can predict the winners make sure you take part in our giveaway, we have prizes by Five Ten, Euro Holds and Climbskin!

Our Company Efforts
We have a proud history of community support.
We have a proud history of community support, ranging from philanthropic donations (e.g. for local sporting or community groups) through to disaster relief clean-up efforts and sharing our business expertise through information sessions in schools. In order for us to continue to deliver long-term sustainable growth for our businesses and ensure the long-term health and vitality of our local communities, we have a Community Investment Framework in place, which is governed by our Principles for Giving.
Principles for Giving
To inform the focus of our Community Support Programs, we have introduced a set of 'Principles for Giving'. The 'Principles for Giving' have been endorsed by the Executive Team and ensure we have a strategic and consistent approach to community giving across IPL. They are as follows:
- We will support activities that provide solutions to local challenges and opportunities in the communities around our operations and areas our employees live in.We see this as the best way to build sustainable and meaningful relationships with these communities for mutual benefit.
- We place a strong emphasis on supporting initiatives which help local organisations develop the skills and resources to bring positive and lasting benefits to the community. We do this by providing funding and support that can make a difference without creating dependencies. We make sure that any organisation we support has plans to be financially and operationally sustainable in the long-term, without our support.
- We provide funding to initiatives in one or more of the following priority areas only. These are aligned to IPL's Values and business startegy. These priorities are also integral to the long-term sustainability of the communities where we operate.They are:
- Education - encompasses activities supporting childhood, adult and indigenous specific education activities;
- Health - encompasses all activities working towards better physical and mental health; and
- Community Development - priority includes support for activities that enrich community life and enhance the social, environmental and economic sustainability of local communities.
Minimum Criteria for SupportAll initiatives or organisations supported by our businesses must meet the following minimum criteria for support:
Initiatives or organisations must:
- Be reputable with a positive track record and solid governance;
- Share our company Values, and must not engage in activities that would contravene the Values or our Code of Ethics;
- Be secular and predominantly concerned with providing services to the community;
- Not be affiliated with a political party;
- Be registered with tax deductibility status (applies to charities only).
- We do not support initiatives whereby support is conditional on receiving items of value in return (e.g. raffle tickets).
- We only support organisations or groups that pose no reputational risk to our business.
- We would like organisations to be prepared to publicly acknowledge our support.

Landon Gray returns to Coyote baseball
- Details
- Published: Friday, 15 September 2017 11:34
The late singer/songwriter Harry Chapin once wrote, "You can travel on 10,000 miles and still stay where you are."
Well, it might not be quite that many miles, but Weatherford College Coyotes catcher Landon Gray has certainly had a busy past few months – and now he's back in a Coyotes uniform for one more season.
"WC is the best opportunity financially and athletically for myself and my family," the Granbury High product said. "This team is going to do really well, and I would like to say there's some unfinished business and we look forward to getting it done."
After helping the Coyotes come within one round of reaching the National Junior College Athletic Association Division I World Series last season, Gray had a whirlwind summer.
First, he was taken by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 38th round of the Major League Baseball Free Agent Draft. After pondering what to do and seeking advice from others, he opted to forego turning professional for now.
"The draft was a tough decision," he said. "Now isn't the time to jump on that opportunity."
He did, however, make a major decision to play at the highest level of college ball – once his time at Weatherford College is over of course. Gray signed to play for the University of Tennessee Volunteers in the Southeast Conference his junior and senior seasons.
"I went up to Tennessee on a visit and immediately felt at home with the people and beautiful weather," he said. "I plan on studying business analytics at Tennessee because I have a passion for the major and more specifically the job opportunity."
Of course, Gray still has the option of turning pro as he will likely be drafted again following his sophomore season.
As a freshman, Gray batted .344 with 50 runs batted in, seven home runs and 45 runs scored. He was named second-team All-North Texas Junior College Athletic Conference.
Gray also excelled academically in his first year of college. He was named third-team Academic All-American.
In the meantime, Gray plans to help the Coyotes once again chase, and hopefully achieve, the elusive goal of reaching the NJCAA World Series. He would also like to see if he can increase his draft stock in the process, along with helping bring more members of his beloved Granbury Pirates to the WC roster.
Last season Gray played with former Pirate outfielder Payton Rhodes, who is now at Lubbock Christian University as a sophomore. This season, Gray will be joined by two more former Granbury standouts, outfielder Chance Turney and pitcher/infielder Matthew Hickey.
"Each kid who has come from Granbury has really busted their butt to get the next level," Gray said. "Chance and Matthew are focused and working really hard, and I think they both have a bright future.
"I plan on bettering myself as a player but more as a young man. Really staying focused and understanding what I'm here to achieve is a big focal point this year. It would be awesome for a better opportunity to come up during the draft, but I have no expectations other than to continue to work and have fun with the guys here at WC."

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- Steve Wright remembers being in the Huntsville Utilities operations center a year ago, and the lights flickering with loud bangs from the storms.
"That meant the TVA system was being hit and it was automatically calculating another route," said Wright, the local utility's electric department manager. "I made the comment that if the lights went out completely, we're in trouble -- it meant they had no more routes."
Then the lights went out.
"We've never had our whole system down before," said Huntsville Utilities spokesman Bill Yell.
Last year's devastating storms claimed lives and homes and also created the largest problem the Tennessee Valley Authority's electrical transmission system had ever faced, said Tracy Flippo, TVA's vice president for transmission, operations and maintenance. The storms damaged or destroyed 350 TVA transmission structures - including numerous massive towers - left 109 major transmission lines out of service and 641,000 people in North Alabama and Mississippi without power.
While it seemed a long five days without power at the time, getting power restored within five or so days given the depth of destruction now seems miraculous.
Flippo said it took until July for TVA to restore its network.
"The grid today doesn't look really any different than April 26, 2011, it's totally restored," Flippo said. "It functions just like it did before, we maintain just like it did before."
The recovery effort, repairing or replacing tons of equipment in its transmission system, cost TVA $39 million, Flippo said. Buying power from other sources to provide sufficient electricity while the system was largely down cost TVA $100 million, Flippo said.
Entire TVA system hit
Huntsville Utilities lost 390 poles and about 250 transformers in the storm. The utility estimates the storms costs were in excess of $5 million. FEMA's calculations -- aimed at repayment -- estimate the damage at $4.5 million, and the local utility will ultimately be repaid for 75 percent of that damage figure, about $3.3 million, Yell said.
TVA's entire system was hit that day, including the network of lines carrying electricity from the east, south and west to Huntsville. Power generation at the Browns Ferry nuclear plant stopped abruptly because there was no electricity coming into the plant to maintain its cooling system and other operations. Even after power to the plant was restored, there was no way to get the power down the line, because the lines were gone. Power generation from Guntersville Dam also stopped.
The blowing away of TVA's network left Huntsville Utilities customers in the dark. Wright estimates that if TVA had the ability to transmit its electricity, about 80 percent of Huntsville Utilities customers wouldn't have experienced the blackout.
How long the lights were out locally varied with the customer's location. The storms struck on a Wednesday and by the following Monday, many Huntsville customers had power restored, by the following weekend, only 50 customers, whose homes weren't intact enough to receive electricity, were still out.
That restoration followed a Herculean response from utility crews across North Alabama.
Flippo and Wright both said that utilities drill on emergency response and crews hone their skills traveling to help other communities in the wake of a major outage. The first order of business is performing damage assessments, but storms had turned whole neighborhoods into debris.
"The most critical thing to being successful in getting the lights back on is the damage assessment," Flippo said. "How bad are the lines broken? Around Huntsville several lines were damaged.
"Our critical task was to identify one line we could rebuild as fast as we could "
Wright said Huntsville Utilities reconnaissance teams were out as soon as the weather began to clear, but it meant driving street to street across Madison County, often in badly damaged areas, to get an accurate assessment. The effort took days to complete, Wright said.
TVA faced a similar task over a much larger area. Flippo said the utility has skilled people in Huntsville who know the areas lines well. TVA also used its fleet of helicopters to fly across the valley and identify problem areas.
Wright said one lesson Huntsville Utilities has adopted from last year's storm was used in the March 2 storms. The utility used an airplane to fly over the areas and through photos and GPS were able to make a damage assessment that will become regular practice in future major events.
The utilities had to figure out what had been lost or damaged, make a path through the trees and other obstacles to get to downed lines and transformers, remove debris, move in new equipment and put it up -- all as quickly as possible.
Flippo estimated that 3,000 to 4,000 people were deployed on the recovery effort. He said that within "about a week of the storm we had 98 percent of our customers restored to power."
For the Huntsville area, it meant the restoration of a line from the Widows Creek fossil plant in Jackson County, back into the Huntsville Utilities system. As more power was available to feed through the transmission line, Wright said, Huntsville Utilities would match that load to various areas. The process began with the water treatment plants and sewer lift stations, the downtown hospitals and care facilities, shortly after that power to some grocery stores and gas stations and then out into neighborhoods.
In most outages, customers demand to know when power will be restored, but in this case, Wright said, people understood. The phone didn't ring, residents went out their way stop and thank the utility crews for the hard work.
"Each storm, they're really doing their best," Wright said. "We didn't have a single accident in the April 27 outage or March 2. They're slinging tons of material around and they did it safely and intensely for 10 days straight."
Value of social media
Both TVA and Huntsville Utilities officials they learned the value of social media as a means of communicating with customers when most other avenues were cut off. Yell said Huntsville Utilities Facebook page, which had a few hundred followers - -mostly utility employees -- grew overnight to more than 12,000. He said the utility's Twitter feed adds 100 or more followers a month.
"Communication was such a problem, our social media component really took off," Yell said. "If people can find enough power to charge a laptop or smart phone we can communicate with them. Very few people today have a portable radio."
The span of the April 27 storms ravaged the electricity network, but it bounced back. TVA has eight connection points into Huntsville and operates a system that when there are problems in parts of the network it finds another route to deliver power.
So would adding a line, say from the north, keep the lights on?
A similar, though happily rare storm, would likely have a similar effect, the utility officials said. Options are always desirable , Flippo said. There can only be so many redundant systems.
Flippo the cost of adding a transmission a line, 100 miles long, would be massive and obtaining the necessary rights-of-way would also be daunting.
"This one in April was so big and so wide I don't know if it would have mattered," Flippo said. "You're dealing with something really, really unusual."

Last night the rain across my road was the highest I've seen it in the 6+ years I lived on the west side of town.
The water across the road flowed into the field.
I worked two extra days this week & I had to drive to work all 6 days. Its killing me. Especially since the last 2 days I didn't even run. Though yesterday I overslept. Guess I was pretty beat. The extra days(nights) do that to you.

PDF printable version of Coalition to deliver more doctors for regional and rural Australia (PDF 260 KB)
Joint Media Release
The Hon Greg Hunt MP
Minister for Health
Minister for Sport
Member for Flinders
The Hon Dr David Gillespie MP
Assistant Minister for Health
Member for Lyne
6 March 2017
- Funding for rural based junior doctors to access a rotation in primary care setting
- Rotations must be undertaken in primary care settings in regional and rural areas
- Supports at least 60 full-time places annually, equal to 240 accredited intern rotations
The opening of the Coalition Government's Rural Junior Doctor Training Innovation Fund (RJDTIF) will work as part of the Integrated Rural Training Pipeline measure to help tackle one of Australia's biggest health challenges – locating doctors, particularly GPs, in regional, rural and remote Australia.
"I am pleased to announce with Minister Gillespie, that applications are now open for organisations to develop training rotations under the RJDTIF," Minister Hunt said.
"The RJDTIF is designed to enable rural based junior doctors completing their intern year to gain experience in rural general practice, in addition to their hospital based rotations."
At least 60 junior doctors will be supported under the program each year, at a cost of up to $10 million. They will train in a variety of primary care settings, such as general practice and Aboriginal Medical Services. This will improve the pathway for new graduates into challenging and rewarding careers as doctors with the skills needed by rural communities.
Minister Gillespie said doctors who live and train in regional and rural areas are more likely to practice in similar areas once they qualify.
"Having practiced most of my 33 years in medicine in regional Australia, I know how important training doctors in regional areas is in our overall efforts to attract and retain doctors in the bush," Minister Gillespie said.
"The RJDTIF is an innovative step by the Coalition Government to address the medical workforce shortage in rural Australia and, in turn, improve the health outcomes of people living in these areas.
"Our Government is committed to strengthening rural training for junior doctors in rural areas.
For more information, contact Minister Hunt's office on (02) 6277 7220 or Minister Gillespie's office on (02) 6277 4960

10 Best Football Plays Of All Time
The 10 best football plays of all time include several memorable moments from championship games and were performed by some of the game's all-time greats. Football soared into prominence in the mid twentieth century and its popularity is due to great games and great moments. The plays listed here will conjure some vivid memories.
- Immaculate Reception. Largely regarded as the best football play of all time, this religiously named play occurred in a playoff game between the Steelers and the Raiders. Terry Bradshaw's pass took a crazy bounce off a defender and receiver, into the arms of rookie Franco Harris, who ran the ball in for a winning touchdown as time expired.
- Bart's sneak. The Packers and the Cowboys were the titans of the NFL in the late 1960's, and they met in the championship game in 1967—a game which would come to be known as "The Ice Bowl," due to a game-time temperature of -13 degrees. Bart Starr ran the ball in over a famous block by his center and guard with just seconds remaining to seal the win.
- Ameche's plunge. One of the best football plays of all time occurred in a game that was called "The Greatest Game Ever Played." The Colts were driving against the Giants in the championship—a nationally broadcast came, which was rare in 1958. Alan Ameche took the ball over from the 1-yard line in overtime to seal the win.
- Harrison's return. The Steelers' James Harrison had one of the best football plays of all time in Super Bowl 43. He picked off a Kurt Warner pass on the goal line and ran it back 100 yards—the longest play in Super Bowl history—dodging and evading tacklers to score a touchdown as time expired in the half.
- Tyree's catch. The Giants' improbable victory over the Patriots in Super Bowl 42 was helped by an amazing catch by David Tyree, one of the best football plays of all time. On the game winning drive, quarterback Eli Manning escaped a sack and heaved the ball to Tyree, who held it against his helmet as he hit the ground.
- Music City Miracle. This is certainly one of the ten best football plays of all time and was the finale of a playoff game during the 1999 season between the Titans and Bills. Down by one and receiving a kickoff with just seconds left, the Titans ran some trickery with an across-the-field lateral to score on a kick return and win the game.
- The Holy Roller. This play, one of the greatest football plays of all time, occurred between the Raiders and Chargers in the 1978 season. About to be sacked as time ran out, Raiders QB Ken Stabler purposefully fumbled the ball, which was then batted forward by various Raiders into the end zone, before being pounced on by a Raider for a TD. The play resulted in a rule change after the season about forward-fumbled balls.
- The Hail Mary. Yes, this is a common term now used to describe any "prayer" of a pass thrown up by a quarterback in a desperate attempt to score at the end of a game, but it actually has a specific play tied to it. In a playoff game between the Cowboys and Vikings, Cowboys QB Roger Staubach threw up a desperation pass caught by receiver Drew Pearson.
- Marshall runs the wrong way. Jim Marshall had a hall-of-fame career with the Minnesota Vikings but will always be remembered for picking up a fumble and running the length of the field in the wrong direction, scoring a safety for the other team.
- Montana-to-Taylor. In Super Bowl 23, legendary QB Joe Montana led is team on a 92-yard drive against the Bengals with just a few minutes left. He capped the drive wit a strike to receiver John Taylor, earning the 49ers their third of four Super Bowls of the 1980s.

Product Description
Thanks to the optimum storage conditions, your food preserves an ideal consistency; ice cream, for instance, is neither too soft nor too hard. A constant temperature in the fridge interior is a decisive factor in achieving more freshness and flavour. FreshSense sensors constantly monitor and control the ambient, fridge and freezer temperature. A constant temperature inside the fridge, independent of the outer temperature, is the result.
LED lights bring a completely new lighting concept to fridges, guaranteeing even, glare-free interior illumination. LED lights use less electricity than conventional fridge lights and last an (appliance) lifetime.
If the SuperCooling function is activated, food that's just been purchased is cooled more quickly. At the same time, it stops food already in the fridge from warming up. The temperature is lowered by pushing a button to 2°C at the lowest. To prevent unnecessary power consumption, the function automatically switches back after about 6 hours.

The ability to get and maintain an erection may be aided by the use of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), ginseng, and supplementation with the amino acid L-arginine. These remedies have been studied in people with some positive results and are generally recognized as safe, according to Mayo Clinic.
Erectile dysfunction is defined as having long-term difficulty in maintaining an erection sufficiently firm for sexual intercourse. Additional home remedies for ED include Ginkgo biloba, yohimbe, and horny goat weed but the use of these remedies is discouraged due to risky side effects or lack of efficacy, according to Mayo Clinic. Patients may also wish to discuss pharmaceutical treatments for ED with your doctor.

Coffee Drinks – Brew Some Delicious Coffee With These Tips
Everyone loves a good cup of joe each morning, but many are curious as to why they can't recreate that coffee shop taste in the comfort of their own home. The article below will provide you some great tips on achieving the best coffee.
If you tend to drink a lot of coffee, you should invest in a quality coffee machine and make your own coffee at home. Go to a coffee shop only occasionally, for instance on weekends or when you go out with some friends. This should help you save a lot.
Try adding spices to your coffee grounds to create your own "artisan" flavors. Think about things you would add to chocolate if you are having trouble deciding what to try. Start with simple things like cinnamon and nutmeg. You can also do things like adding a little vanilla abstract to your cup to enrich the flavor of your coffee.
Do not throw away your old coffee grounds. If you have a garden, you can use your coffee grounds as fertilizer for your plants and flowers while keeping the pest away. You can also use old coffee grounds to scrub dirty dishes or clean your kitchen counter instead of using chemicals.
Always find out how much caffeine a certain type of coffee contains before drinking it. Espressos do not necessarily contain more caffeine than other types of coffees. If you go to a coffee shop, your barista should be able to tell you how much caffeine you are getting in each beverage, but you might have to do some research about the beans you are using if you make your own coffee.
As we said before if you want to make great coffee like in the coffee shops it will be hard if you are unsure of how to do it. With the right tips, however, you will be surprised at how easy it really can be!

MAM Funds managing director Gervais Williams has invested just 40 per cent of his £50m diverse income trust in a defensive approach due to a gloomy economic outlook.
The trust, which launched in April, invests only in UK companies.
Williams says: "We will not put our foot on the accelerator with investment until the uncertainties in the market are sorted. If the euro falls, it will be due to politics and you cannot predict politics. We need to have time to see the effect on the UK of a euro fall. All the European banks are interconnected and I am concerned about the Greek debt problem."
He says the UK economy is not growing and global trading volumes are down.
Williams says this cautious approach to investment extends across MAM, with portfolio manager Martin Gray also holding a high weighting in cash. Gray's £619m special sits and £188m strategic funds have 36 per cent and 37 per cent in currencies.
