"From Battle Creek…."
"Good-bye Robert McNamara" from Renee Ashley Baker
U.S. Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara
Breakfast cereal is now a $9 billion dollar business. But back in the day, when John Harvey Kellogg set out on a national health crusade, cereal had a more select fan club. In the late 1890s, Kellogg and other Seventh Day Adventists cooked up the first batch of cornflakes in his Battle Creek, Michigan, laboratory…. But breakfast -in-a-box really took off in 1949, after the Chairman of Kellogg's happened to share a ride with with legendary adman Leo Burnett. Soon after the men joined forces to market cereal directly to kids. (Brightly packaged boxes helped–Norman Rockwell designed the one above, which hit store shelves in 1955–as did big spending on some of the earliest color TV commercials).*
Renee Ashley Baker's father (Mr. Ashley) was a "LION". He received "Good Service/Good Conduct Medals" from the U.S. Army. Renee Ashley Baker's father (Mr. Ashley) also received a written "commendation" from President John F. Kennedy. Renee Ashley Baker's father (Mr. Ashley) was also a "Mason". Renee Ashley Baker's father (Mr. Ashley) was also a "Seventh Day Adventist"….

THE MODEL\'S THEME by Renee Ashley Baker
Renee Ashley Baker
Copyright 2010 by Renee Ashley Baker
A gathering of 'the fashionable', in the 'sud de France', at a haute couture fashion showing of Jean Paul Gaultier. Everyone who is anyone is there–jet set, aristocrats, diplomats, royalty. Champagne flows throughout the blue & white tent. Abruptly the lights flicker then dim–the SHOW BEGINS. One after the other, 6ft tall models march down the runway. Count them– 50? 70? 100? Then last –always last–comes the SHOW STOPPER–the show closing 'bridal gown' IN BLACK! Only this model (5'6″ tall) reaches back and pulls over her head a high tech GAS MASK (made of 48 carat gold). She puts the gas mask over her nose then she reaches back over her head and this time pulls out a GR-NADE! In one ANIMATED STROKE she throws the grenade into the audience– and– as it EXPLODES it sends a 'CHEMICAL CLOUD' waifting through the air. Our 'Model' then gazes around the room at the patrons–she KNOWS– they are NOT dead but are MERELY ASLEEP as she has great and important USE for them later. WE REALIZE that our model–who stepped onto the stage wearing all Black is now wearing all WHITE!….Her MISSION ACCOMPLISHED she assuredly and arrogantly continues her walk–ALONE– down the runway. She steps, steps, steps out of the tent and into a tube that is clear–that is transparent. CAMERA PULLS BACK WE SEE our villainess as she does her 'fierce' model stomp through this 'SEE THROUGH' tunnel. The tunnel leads where? Where else but across the WIDE AZURE BLUE SEA! As we watch this 'walk on water' (this 'model stomp on water') WE HEAR: "Model's Theme" (click link at top of page)….
THE HAT By Renee Ashley Baker
INT A 2nd GRADE CLASSROOM IN ST. LOUIS, MO DAY
As the SCENE OPENS WE SEE a Teacher sitting at her desk at the front of the class. Her hair is red and her eyes are emerald green. WE SEE it is "after school". Class is over and all chairs in the classroom are empty "SAVE" one. In this one chair –that is spotlighted by a "ray" of sunlight beaming through a shadeless window– a young girl, age 7 or so, sits wearing a crisp white blouse, a red shetland wool sweater, and a green tartain skirt. From a distance WE CAN SEE the young girl–the PUPIL–move her hand. She is making marks in a notebook. She is making lines, curves, and shadows. WE CUT BACK TO A MEDIUM CLOSE UP OF THE TEACHER. She too has a notebook. On the cover of her "white notebook" WE SEE the words "LESSON PLAN". As the TEACHER opens the notebook she picks up a pencil and begins making marks. She makes lines, curves and shadows. AS WE CUT BACK AND FORTH WE SEE that the TEACHER'S lines, curves, and shadows are the "exact same" as her young pupil's lines, curves and shadows. They–the Teacher and the Pupil– continue their "mental connection" until both put down their pencils–in unison. WHAT WE SEE is "A MAN'S HAT" on both the Pupil's and the Teacher's papers. Grandly, the young girl–The Pupil–stands, and with notebook firmly in the crease of her elbow she approaches the TEACHER'S DESK. But–instead of handing in "her" drawing of "The Hat" she instead switches the papers and pulls a second paper from her notebook, one with writing from top to bottom, one that she had "completed in full" by herself, the night before. Handing the paper across the desk, the Teacher takes the paper, smiling proudly. The Teacher then stands and walks to a nearby wall. On the wall WE SEE a cork board covered in "white paper" containing the words "STUDENT OF THE WEEK" in big cut out letters. The Teacher takes two "thumb tacks" and affixes both to her "prize pupil's work". The Teacher returns to her desk, opens a drawer and takes out 5 gold____. More letters? Moore letters? 5 gold what? When the TEACHER walks back to the cork board WE FINALLY SEE they are "5 gold STARS". The Teacher tacks each star in a row underneath the "prize pupils writing". The Teacher stands back in admiration, smiling. The Teacher then looks back at her "prize pupil" but the "Prize Pupil" is looking elsewhere. The Prize Pupil's eyes are fixed on the doorway. Then, as if signaled via "osmosis" the Teacher walks, translike, out of the classroom. She TURNS RIGHT and walks a short distance to a door that contains a sign reading "EXIT". The Teacher then opens the door and a MAN enters. The man is wearing "THE HAT". As–the MAN , also translike, walks–IN SLOW MOTION–down the hall, WE SEE the young girl–The Pupil–as she stands in the classroom doorway. Her head looks left. As THE MAN walks slowly The Pupil continues to look left –expecting–expecting–when "HE" APPEARS. Rounding the corner , walking, walking also in slow motion is LEE HARVEY OSWALD. HE is in handcuffs, and he is being guarded by two men walking on each side of him. OVER ALL THE ABOVE WE HEAR THE SONG: "A View To A Kill".

BEIJING, July 17 (Xinhua) -- China on Monday responded to a proposal by the Republic of Korea (ROK) to hold inter-Korean military and Red Cross talks with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), urging the the two sides to work together to break the stalemate.
"China believes it is in the fundamental interests of both sides to improve ties through dialogue, and promote reconciliation and cooperation," said Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lu Kang at a press briefing. "It also helps to ease tensions on the Korean Peninsula and boost the peace, stability and security of the region."
The ROK on Monday proposed holding inter-Korean military talks on Friday at Tongilgak, a building on the DPRK side of the truce village of Panmunjom, to ease military tensions along the border.
Separately, the South Korean Red Cross suggested holding dialogue on the reunion of families separated by the 1950-1953 Korean War, on Aug. 1 in Peace House, a building on the ROK side of Panmunjom.
China hopes the two sides would work together towards a positive direction and pave the way for resuming dialogue, Lu said.
"We also hope all parties concerned in the international community would give understanding and support for it, and play constructive roles in properly settling the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue," he added.

Rutgers Stuns Louisville 28-25
Where the heck did these two teams come from again? Rutgers has always been a bad program. After winning the first college football game ever 6-4 over Princeton, (November 6, 1869, actually, meaning that the anniversary was this past week), they seemingly lost every game since until a couple of years ago.
Now, they are national title contenders.
I love teams like Rutgers. They show the BCS to be the farce that it is. They are at a huge disadvantage in the polls, because voters are less likely to promote them. They came into this week ranked behind the one less West Virginia, which had just lost to Louisville.
It is going to be interesting to see where the BCS puts them.
Louisville is a great story in its own right. A second tier football program until the past few years, Louisville itself would have shaken up the BCS. Louisville doesn't have the tradition that the other top programs have, and the fact that they were number 3 this late says a lot.
Rutgers has yet to play West Virginia, which could be a tough game. If they run the table, it will make for a VERY INTERESTING decision process for the BCS title game.

We believe that you shouldn't feel that you can't pursue your ambition to be a doctor or a dentist because of your family or school circumstances.
The Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry's widening access to medical and dental school workshops are student-led hands-on interactive sessions aimed to inspire, inform and support students in applying to medical or dental schools.
We also encourage potential students from non-traditional backgrounds to apply, debunking some of the myths surrounding medical and dental schools, such as 'only private/grammar school students are accepted'. We don't want any student to feel that they cannot pursue their ambition to be a future healthcare professional because of their family or school circumstances.
In addition, we support almost all of the Faculty's widening participation events and Open Days, including facilitating the Teddy Bear Hospital workshops. We also attend career fairs and assemblies held at local schools and colleges. We also run mock interview sessions and give tips and advice on personal statements upon request.
Our volunteers are passionate about teaching and helping a wide range of students pursue a healthcare professional degree. Sometimes a visit from us will start school students thinking about university education when they haven't before. Volunteering for WAMS or WADS looks great on our students CVs, but it's also a lot of fun to teach school students, and sometimes even their teachers.
"Sometimes a visit from us will start school students thinking about university education when they haven't before. We consider it a job well done…it's also a lot of fun to teach school students, and sometimes even their teachers. We hope it means that the Faculty never miss out on students with the potential to become amazing doctors [or dentists]." ‑ Abigail Carey, WAMS President.For more information or to take part in one of the schemes above, contact the WAMS Widening Participation Officer at email@example.com

Author: Sarah Gilman
Source: Entangled Publishing
Genre: Paranormal Romance, Phoenix Shifter
Length: Novel
Release Date: December 30, 2013
Rating: 4 - Really liked it. Don't pass it up.
Sexual: 2 flames - Kissing, cuddling. PG-13 rating
Journalist Ambrosia Pellerin accepts an assignment involving the legendary phoenix,
expecting, if nothing else, a little entertainment. Instead, she gets pregnant—by a surprisingly human-looking firebird, Reece Bennu.
Ambrosia and Reece struggle to make the best of their predicament, igniting a tentative romance despite Reece's furious and powerful relatives who resent the mixed-blood child, a violent human out to prove the existence of phoenixes at any cost, and Ambrosia's forced separation from her family and isolation in her new home.
Reece's relatives plot murder while Ambrosia's family faces a dire medical situation and ask her to return. Will the couple survive when Reece denies Ambrosia his trust and her freedom when she needs both more than anything?
My Review:
I'm a complete sucker for the odd shifter types, and I've never run across a phoenix shifter before. This book took the lore of the Phoenix and owned it, integrating it perfectly into a new shifter species. The majority of this story covers the first couple months of Ambrosia's pregnancy and her coming to terms with the fact that she'll be having a phoenix baby. There are a few good freak outs before being forced (in a good way) into believing.
Reece is a great guy - willing to step up and take responsibility for his new family, while protecting them from the prejudices of his old family. The blurb really doesn't do the book justice at all. There is plenty of action at the beginning, but it settles down into a very beautiful and emotional romance. Perhaps Sarah Gilman could write another beautiful Phoenix story about Reece's sister. She sounded like she needed a little love in her life.

Gig reports: Mika @ Den Atelier, Luxembourg
I loved this Luxembourg gig. Loved loved loved it. My favorite kind of Mika gigs. Not as exciting as the first show of the tour in Rennes was (the biggest excitement for years) but warm, cozy and small. I love it when Mika is close to the audience. The stage was tiny so there was no space for anything else except him and the band. No stage setting or even background, just Mika singing and chatting to the audience the band having fun around him. I didn't take many photos, I didn't want to put my camera between us and I loved it that he left his microphone in the end of Happy Ending and sang a bit without it, it was absolutely beautiful and that way there was nothing between his voice and the audience either.
He took a lot of contact with the crowd like he often does at intimate gigs like this. I couldn't understand his chatting in French but really enjoyed the atmosphere. In the end of Boum Boum Boum he suddenly pointed me asking me on stage. It was very unexpected. I have a horrible stage fear and going on stage even for a short moment without knowing what's going to happen felt absolutely terrifying. I messaged him "no" but he did some demanding gestures with his fingers and I said "nooo" again and then he quickly grabbed Karin on stage instead.
Hahah at least I made her happy! She enjoyed her time on stage and getting some cool dancing photos with Mika but I felt a bit bad afterwards. Fans are supposed to play along during gigs, I wasn't sure if he likes people saying no. He asks fans on stage quite often and those moments are meant to be really special. Usually fans are dying to be there! I'm such a failure… How to explain that just having the possibility made me happy? Luckily he said later it was just funny. Maybe I will get over my stage fear someday. I've been on stage during previous tours (that time we all knew what was going to happen) and survived and had a wonderful experience.
The set list for Luxembourg:
- No Place In Heaven
- Big Girl
- Good Wife
- Grace Kelly
- Boum Boum Boum
- Talk About You
- Good Guys
- Origin Of Love
- Relax
- L'amour
- Staring At The Sun
- Promiseland
- Underwater
- Elle Me Dit
- Happy Ending
- Love Today
- Last Party
He skipped Golden and Lollipop in the end. During Promiseland he took a crown Karin gave him and was wearing it half of the show and told little stories that it brought to his mind (couldn't understand but got translations later). I can't tell any favorites like I usually do, loved every song and really enjoyed this intimate gig. Cristina and her husband were kind and drove us to our hotel after he show so we didn't have to look for a taxi. Such dodgy neighborhood in the center, full of prostitutes and dealers. What a great night to remember. Thanks everyone involved xx

MCFEELY: Minnesota Miracle saves Vikings from disaster
MINNEAPOLIS — That was for Drew Pearson's Hail Mary. And Gary Anderson's wide left. And Brett Favre's interception. And Blair Walsh's shank.
And the four Super Bowls. Of course, those four awful losses.
That was for you, Minnesota Vikings fans. You got one. You finally got one.
How does it feel?
Judging by the explosion inside U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday, Jan. 14, when Stefon Diggs leaped high, pulled down a Case Keenum pass along the sideline and avoided being hit by New Orleans Saints safety Marcus Williams before sprinting 61 yards for a touchdown as time expired to give the Vikings a miracle playoff victory, it must have felt pretty darned good.
Vikings 29, Saints 24.
Say it again. Say it loud. Scream it if you want, as often as you want.
Vikings 29, Saints 24.
Hell, yes.
Let freedom ring. From Minneapolis to Mankato to Worthington to Duluth to Moorhead, the franchise curse is dead. From Fargo to Bismarck to Dickinson to Pembina, it is gone. From Sioux Falls to Rapid City to Aberdeen to Waubay to Lemmon, it has been exorcised. From Des Moines to Ames to Spencer to Davenport, it's gone.
With that one play, snatching a supernatural victory from the jaws of a crushing defeat, the Vikings shed the playoff baggage that dogged them since 1961. All of the heartbreak, gone in the time it took Diggs to sprint across the goal line after catching Keenum's pass.
At last, a Minnesota Miracle.
"I'm still in shock," Vikings receiver Adam Thielen said in the locker room afterward. "I don't know if I'll ever get over this."
Thielen grew up in Detroit Lakes, Minn., and played college ball for Minnesota State Mankato, a lifelong Vikings fan who'd lived through the pain and suffering just like every other Vikings fan.
He was 8 years old after the 1998 season when Anderson's missed field goal in the NFC Championship against Atlanta cost the Vikings a Super Bowl berth. He was 19 after the 2009 season when Favre's late interception against these Saints again cost them a trip to the big game. He played in the game a couple of years ago against Seattle when Walsh missed a short field goal to lose a playoff game. Thielen wasn't alive for any of the Super Bowls or Dallas' own miracle against the Vikings in 1975, but he knows of them. He knows of all the soul-crushing defeats.
So Thielen knows what this unbelievable victory means to all those who live and die with the Vikings.
"Shoot, just being a Vikings fan from day one, we've been through a lot just being a fan," Thielen said. "I can't wait to see all the hype. It was already big going into this game. We felt so much energy throughout the week from social media and the news. It's been so fun to see everybody so excited in this community and really just having our backs."
The thing is, this one looked like so many of the other heart-wrenching defeats. The Vikings were going to throw away a game they should've won easily. They took a 17-0 lead early and the sellout crowd inside U.S. Bank Stadium was rip-roaring loud, waving their white towels like a blizzard. Then Drew Brees got New Orleans a touchdown, Keenum threw an awful interception and all the insecurities came roaring back.
Everybody was thinking the same thing: The Vikings were going to blow another one.
The Saints took a 21-20 lead on a touchdown with 3 minutes left. But Kai Forbath kicked a 53-yard field goal with 1:29 remaining to give Minnesota a 23-21 lead. New Orleans answered with a Wil Lutz field goal to take a 24-23 with 25 seconds left.
That was it, right? They did it again. The Vikings choked again. Another sad chapter in a pathetic history.
Not this time. Not on this day. The most improbable play came at the most improbable time from the most improbable franchise. Keenum to Diggs will live forever. There were fans crying inside the stadium.
"There were a lot of ups and downs growing up a Vikings fan," said Minnesota fullback C.J. Ham, a Duluth native who played for Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D. "Getting this playoff win is huge for us, huge for the organization, huge for the fans."
Vikings 29, Saints 24.
In the immortal words of Prince, which blared inside the stadium, let's go crazy. Soak it in, celebrate and party until you can't party any more. Call into work sick if you have to.
You deserve it, Vikings fans. You really, really — really — deserve it.

Worldwide, IQs have risen by up to three points per decade over the past century. Known as the Flynn effect, the rise means IQ tests should be recalibrated regularly. At 78, James Flynn, the man it's named after, explains how he's still hard at work on its repercussions.
Are we getting smarter?
Our ancestors were just as good as we are at practical intelligence, at dealing with everyday life. But our brains and minds have changed over the last century. That is when all these IQ gains have taken place, and we have developed the mental skills needed to deal with the demands of the modern world.Read more here:

Mobile Minute Episode #178:
There are a handful of mega brands that are embracing mobile with every fibre of their business. We hear often about Starbucks and Lowe's but another you should watch is Coca-Cola. I've been blown away by their approach to mobile since I interviewed Tom Daly in early 2012 (found here) and the way they are currently focused on creating conversations through mobile – instead of the transaction – is something we can all learn from.

A look at some of the notable figures the sports world said goodbye to in 2013:
Stan Musial
Stan the Man died at age 92 on Jan. 19. The three-time National League MVP won three World Series rings and was named to 24 all-star teams with the St. Louis Cardinals. The hall of famer is so revered in St. Louis, there are two statues of him outside Busch Stadium.
Earl Weaver
The colourful, volatile former manager of the Baltimore Orioles died of a heart attack at age 82 on Jan. 19, during a team cruise in the Caribbean. The Orioles made the World Series four times under Weaver, winning in 1970. He had many highlight-reel run-ins with umpires and was ejected more than 90 times. In 1996, he was voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Jerry Buss
The self-made millionaire in real estate and driving force behind the Showtime Lakers of Magic Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant died Feb. 18 at age 80 from kidney failure after seeking treatment for cancer. He owned the Lakers for more than three decades, winning 10 NBA titles and reaching the NBA final 16 times. He was also president of the NBA's board of governors for two terms.
Pat Summerall
The voice of the Masters, U.S. Open tennis and 16 Super Bowls died of a heart attack on April 16 at age 82. Summerall was perhaps best known for his NFL work alongside analyst John Madden on CBS. He also played 10 NFL seasons as a kicker with the Chicago Cardinals and New York Giants.
Epy Guerrero
The Blue Jays' most influential scout died May 23 in the Dominican Republic at age 71. For more than two decades, Guerrero, a pioneer in Dominican baseball, was responsible for recruiting and developing some of the greatest players in Blue Jays history, including Tony Fernandez and Carlos Delgado.
Deacon Jones
The hall of fame defensive end, a member of the Los Angeles Rams' Fearsome Foursome, died June 3 at age 74 after battling lung cancer and heart problems. The 14th-round draft pick is credited with coining the term "sack." After football, he was the long-time radio voice of the Rams and did a popular series of Miller Lite TV ads.
Jason Leffler
The 37-year-old NASCAR driver died from injuries suffered in a sprint car crash on June 12. The Californian won two Nationwide Series races. In his last NASCAR Sprint Cup start — just days before his death, at Pocono — Leffler finished last.
Emile Griffith
The International Boxing Hall of Fame member and six-time world champion died July 23 after a long battle with dementia. He was 75. Griffith was long remembered for his fatal knockout of Benny (Kid) Paret in 1962, which cast a shadow over the sport. Decades later it was reported that Paret had called Griffith a gay slur before the bout.
Christian Benitez
Chucho, 27, was a powerful striker from Ecuador who died of heart failure on July 29, shortly after playing with his new club El Jaish in Qatar. With the Mexico City-based club America, Benitez was the league's top scorer the season before his death and was an important part of its championship run.
Shawn Burr
The NHL fan favourite died Aug. 5 at age 47 after battling cancer and suffering a fall that caused massive brain trauma. He ended his career with the Tampa Bay Lightning, but was best known as a Red Wing — reaching the Stanley Cup final in his last season with Detroit, 1994-95. The upbeat forward was drafted seventh overall by the Wings in 1984.
Tommy Morrison
The Duke, former WBO heavyweight champion, was 44 when he died Sept. 2. He won his first 28 professional fights, but was perhaps best known for his life outside the ring: a starring role in Rocky V, run-ins with the law and testing positive for HIV, the AIDS virus, in 1995.
Ken Norton
The only heavyweight champion to never win a title fight died Sept. 18 at age 70, one year after suffering his third stroke. Norton won the first of three memorable bouts against Muhammad Ali in 1973 (breaking his jaw in the process), but lost the second and third. The World Boxing Council awarded the unorthodox fighter a share of the title in 1978 after Leon Spinks declined a mandatory defence, but Norton lost his next fight to Larry Holmes, who retained the belt for seven years.
Denis Brodeur
One of Canada's foremost hockey photographers and the father of Devils all-world netminder Martin Brodeur died Sept. 26 at age 82. Known best for his shots of the Montreal Canadiens, Brodeur was also one of two photographers — along with the Star's Frank Lennon — to record Paul Henderson's iconic winning goal at the 1972 Summit Series. In 2006, the NHL bought his photo archive for $350,000.
Maria de Villota
The former Formula One test driver died in her sleep on Oct. 11 at age 33, from the lingering effects of a crash one year earlier. The daughter of Spanish driver Emilio De Villota raced in the world touring car championship in 2006 and 2007. She was the first Spanish woman to drive an F1 car and was posthumously awarded the country's gold medal of sporting merit.
Allan Stanley
One of the greatest defencemen of the Maple Leafs' golden era died Oct. 18 at age 87. The Hockey Hall of Famer, nicknamed Snowshoes, played 21 NHL seasons and won four Stanley Cups with the Leafs in 1962, 1963, 1964 and 1967. His stellar career was also commemorated on a Canadian stamp, issued in 2005.
Adrian Dudzicki
The 2012 Ontario squash singles champion was 23 when he was hit by a car and killed while cycling to training on Nov. 20. During his short career, he was also the 2010 Canadian university and college champion, representing Canada at the World University Games.
Paul Blair
Just a day after Christmas, the eight-time Gold Glove centre fielder lost consciousness at a celebrity bowling tournament and died. Blair, a member of the Baltimore Orioles Hall of Fame, hit .474 in the club's World Series win in 1970, and won another Series ring in 1966.

Elizabeth Hurley is ageless, but when the 50-year-old actress posted a throwback photo of herself as a young girl, we barely recognized her!
On Thursday, Hurley posted a childhood photo to Instagram, which appears to be a school picture. In the shot, the actress is seen sporting a turtleneck and adorable braided pigtails.
In the caption, she wrote, "Was I sweet?" And sweet she was!
In the comments, fans were quick to agree. "OMG! So cute. Priceless," one said.
Others also noted that the actress was "gorgeous even as a child."
With such good looks, it's no wonder Hurley eventually became a model at age 29 – with no prior modelling experience, might we add!
While the model and actress rarely posts photos from her childhood days, she has previously shared images of her 22-year-old self.
Here she is at the start of her acting career in 1988 when she starred in Dennis Potter's miniseries "Christabel."
And here she is on New Year's of that year.
Considering Hurley's good genes, it's no surprise she passed on her model looks to her son Damian. Just last month, the star paid tribute to her son on his 14th birthday by posting this photo to Instagram.
Damian is Hurley's only child. The actress had him during a brief relationship with businessman and film producer Steve Bing in 2001. Interestingly, Hurley's ex, Hugh Grant, is the teen's godfather.
Hurley clearly has one good looking family. Let's hope she keeps sharing sweet photos with us on Instagram.

During the Squidoo beta I picked up the ISV Squidoo page. I've just got basic stuff up there right now. I'm looking for classic articles that all ISV's especially startup ISV's should read. I'm also really looking for other discussion boards to link to other than the JOS, which are the only active ones I really know about. The Squidoo layout is hard to add lots of info to (I guess that's the idea) so we need to put up the really good stuff.
Yes I could have grabbed help desk software or some such thing, but that just didn't feel like very much fun. I'll leave it for the spammers 😉

While surgery is not considered "necessary" and is an individual's choice, it is an option for people with BMI 35 and above if they have a medical condition related to obesity and for people with BMI 40 and above whether or not they have a related medical condition, according to according to Dr. William S.

The International Atomic Energy Agency is set to release a new report this week that, by all accounts, will provide more detailed information than ever before about alleged Iranian work to militarize its nuclear research program. Iran has for its part dismissed the report even before it was issued as "forgeries similar to faked notes," and warning that it's all just a rehash of the so-called Green Salt documents that have been behind IAEA reports for the past several years. But others say that the November IAEA report could be a game-changer that ratchets up international pressure on Iran. And, even if there's nothing new, the rumors have still triggered yet another round of reports that Israel is planning to launch a unilateral strike against Iran's nuclear facilities.
The IAEA report is certain to cause a storm of controversy. It isn't clear, however, if the IAEA has genuinely new information to report, or whether it simply plans to elaborate on evidence it's had since 2004. At least one new wrinkle, though, is almost guaranteed to revive memories of the flawed and fabricated intelligence about what turned out to be a nonexistent weapons of mass destruction program, namely, then-Secretary of State Colin Powell's 2003 testimony to the United Nations Security Council, in which he revealed photographs of what he said were mobile biological weapons labs that turned out to be bogus. In this case, according to the Washington Post, the IAEA has "acquired satellite photos of a bus-size steel container" used to field test "the kinds of high-precision conventional explosives used to trigger a nuclear chain reaction."
In Washington, there's a moderately heightened level of worry that Israel, this time, might actually be ready to carry out an attack, but most analysts believe that the saber-rattling in Jerusalem is yet another effort by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to take advantage of the new IAEA report by creating conditions for yet tougher sanctions on Iran. For two decades, the whole issue has been a propaganda gold mine. Like clockwork, each year since 2004, there have been regular predictions that Iran was just a year or so removed from deploying an atomic bomb, yet no bomb exists. Similarly, there has been a steady drumbeat of reports over the same period that either Israel or the United States was just months away from a military strike against Iran.Enjoying this article?

Is it different this time? At least one report, by CNN, quoted a senior U.S. Pentagon official saying that the United States is "absolutely" concerned that Israel might be preparing to go to war against Iran, and previously ironclad assurances by Israel that it wouldn't carry out such an attack without informing the United States are being questioned. "Now that doesn't seem so ironclad," a Department of Defense official told CNN.
Over the past four years, both the administrations of George W. Bush and Barack Obama have told the Israelis, in no uncertain terms, that an attack on Iran is unacceptable to Washington. Top U.S. military leaders, including most notably just-retired Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Adm. Mike Mullen, have personally delivered the same message to Israeli military commanders. That's because an attack by Israel against Iran would inevitably draw the United States into the war, and the conflict would likely spread as Iran struck back against the United States, Israel, and the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, either directly or through proxies in Iran, Afghanistan, Lebanon, and elsewhere. Presumably, those warnings to Israel still stand, and it's likely they've been reiterated this month, although the White House spokesman last week refused to comment one way or the other when asked if the United States had communicated to Israel on the issue.
The question gained new urgency at the end of October when Nahum Barnea, a veteran writer at the daily Yediot Aharanot, wrote a column suggesting that Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak may have agreed among themselves that Israel must take action against Iran. "Have the prime minister and defense minister settled on a decision, just between the two of them, to launch a military attack on the nuclear facilities in Iran?" he asked. Days later, the liberal daily Haaretz reported that Netanyahu and Barak had taken the issue to Israel's cabinet to rally support. "Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak are trying to muster a majority in the cabinet in favor of military action against Iran, a senior Israeli official has said," reported Haaretz. "According to the official, there's a 'small advantage' in the cabinet for the opponents of such an attack." Soon, Israel was abuzz with rumors and counter-rumors that something was in the offing.

Now, the singer-actor returns to the television drama as a detective in tvN's upcoming "Flower Grandpas Investigators."
Kim revealed at the drama's press conference in Seoul on Wednesday that several years have passed since he last starred in a Korean TV series, adding that he is fully invested in his new role.
|The cast of tvN's "Flower Grandpas Investigators" (from left to right), Lee Soon-jae, Byun Hee-bong, Jang Gwang
and Kim Hee-chul, attend the drama's press conference in Seoul on Wednesday. (Lee Sang-sub/The Korea Herald)
Kim will be starring in a new cable series that takes its cue from the hit reality show "Grandpas Over Flowers," which documented the joys and travails that four prominent actors in their 60s and 70s experienced while traveling in various countries over three much-watched installments.
The soon-to-air, 12-part comedy inspired by the popular travel show centers on three 20-something-year-old detectives who become unwitting victims of an experiment that ages them 40 years.
Only hallyu star Kim Hee-chul's hero, detective Park Jung-woo, emerges unscathed.
As his suddenly much older colleagues struggle to deal with their new and unusual predicament, Kim's Park shares in their hardships, joining them in their mission to find a way to reclaim their lost youth.
The plot, in short, appears to have little in common with "Grandpas Over Flowers." But like the original show, the drama will focus on characters in their 70s and will feature "Grandpas Over Flowers" cast member Lee Soon-jae as one of the leads.
In the show, these men are, mentally at least, still in their late 20s, a situation that requires Kim's character to talk in an overly familiar way to his costars, who are playing his hero's close buddies, which the K-pop idol admitted to finding challenging.
"For someone like me, who is known to be well-mannered, this character really demanded a great deal of acting talent of me," Kim said of having to behave in a casual and bold-faced manner toward such formidable costars.
Costar Lee Soon-jae praised Kim, shedding light on how much effort Kim has invested into this project.
"Kim Hee-chul is working really hard," said Lee, 78, adding that Kim "is very cheerful and quick to learn."
Though Kim kept things lighthearted and fun while fielding questions regarding the age and experience gap between him and his costars, he did seem to keenly feel the pressure of starring opposite acting veterans like Lee Soon-jae, Byun Hee-bong and Jang Gwang.
"Acting was a given," he said when asked how he knew that nailing his character ― a good-looking, wealthy son of a police director ― would be a basic requirement of working with a trio of professional thespians.
So, has Kim nailed his role?
Lee said, "He is one to watch."
"Flower Grandpas Investigators" starts airing May 9 on Friday nights at 9:50 p.m. on tvN.

Texas 'affluenza' teen Ethan Couch to remain in jail
A judge on Wednesday ordered so-called "affluenza teen" Ethan Couch to spend two years behind bars — 180 days for each of the four people he killed in a fatal 2013 drunken-driving wreck.
That's likely to provide little comfort to the families of Breanna Mitchell, Brian Jennings, Hollie Boyles and Shelby Boyles, who already have spent more time without their loved ones than Couch is set to spend in jail.
"Never once has Ethan apologized in any shape or form," Eric Boyles, whose wife, Hollie, and daughter, Shelby, were killed in the crash, told ABC in 2015.
Until Wednesday, Couch's only punishment for the 2013 crash had been probation, leaving families little recourse except to seek financial compensation. Eric Boyles filed one suit seeking more than $1 million and Mitchell's mom and Jennings' wife each filed their own lawsuits.
Two passengers in Couch's truck who were injured that night also sued him. One of those passengers, Sergio Molina, suffered brain damage and ultimately settled with Couch for $2 million in 2014.
Couch appeared in adult court Wednesday for the first time, as he is no longer considered a juvenile. He spent his 19th birthday on Monday in a Texas jail cell.
Judge Wayne Salvant sentenced Couch to four consecutive 180-day sentences (720 total days) – one for each victim he killed. It was not clear if that would include the time Couch has already spent in jail.
Couch was originally sentenced to probation for killing four people and seriously injuring two others in June 2013 when the then-16-year-old rammed a pickup truck into a crowd of people helping a disabled motorist. His blood-alcohol level was three times above the legal limit for adult drivers. Attorneys for Couch argued that his affluent life contributed to his wreckless actions, with one defense psychologist using the term "affluenza."
Couch, however, appeared to violate the terms of his probation when he was seen at a party where alcohol was being served in an online video. After the video became public, Couch and his mother fled to Mexico in December. He was eventually captured and returned to the U.S. in January.
Salvant told prosecution and defense attorneys they had two weeks to review the ruling and see if they could "change my mind" about the sentence.
The 2013 fatal wreck wasn't Couch's first run-in with the law.
At 15, Couch was given two citations after a police officer found him behind the wheel of a pickup truck next to a half-naked girl, with an open vodka bottle on the backseat floor.
"I spoke with him at some length about the various consequences of his driving and drinking," a police officer wrote in a report, "such as effects on (his) driver's license and his path in life, especially DWI and even killing someone in a DWI."
Couch's father, Fred, runs a roofing and construction company and has faced lawsuits over a $100,000 debt and allegations of sexual harassment. Tonya, Couch's mother, has been charged with hindering the apprehension of a felon for helping Ethan flee to Mexico.
Dr. Dick Miller, the psychologist who suggested Couch had "affluenza," blamed Couch's parents at his sentencing for having "taught him a system that's 180 degrees from rational. If you hurt someone, say you're sorry. In that family, if you hurt someone, send some money."
Fox News' Casey Stegall and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Buffer with multiple ingredients
I got a modified CTAB protocol and I need to prepare the following Nuclei extraction buffer:
10 mM TRIS-HC1 pH 9.5,
10 mM EDTA pH 8.0,
100 mM KC1,
500 mM sucrose,
4 mM spermidine,
1 mM spermine,
0.1% beta-mercaptoethanol).
And the protocol says, add 10 ml of ice-cold Nuclei extraction buffer.
I am unable to figure out how to prepare the buffer solution. I need to prepare 500ml.
Thanks in advance and look forward to your feedback please.

Highlights:For some time, users have been able to use Twitter via HTTPS by going to https://twitter.com. We've made it simpler for users to do this by adding the option to always use HTTPS.To turn on HTTPS, go to your settings and check the box next to "Always use HTTPS," which is at the bottom of the page. This will improve the security of your account and better protect your information if you're using Twitter over an unsecured Internet connection, like a public WiFi network, where someone may be able to eavesdrop on your site activity. In the future, we hope to make HTTPS the default setting.We've already made this setting the default for a number of clients and activities. In these cases, HTTPS is used whether or not you've enabled the "Always use HTTPS" setting:When you log into Twitter, so your password stays protected.On the official Twitter for iPhone and iPad mobile application.There are also a few instances where turning on HTTPS in your settings does not force HTTPS. For example, when accessing Twitter from your mobile browser, you need to go to https://mobile.twitter.com to use HTTPS for now. We are working on a solution that will share the "Always use HTTPS" setting across twitter.com and mobile.twitter.com, so you don't have to think about which device you're using when you want to check Twitter. If you use a third-party application, you should check to see if that app offers HTTPS. Sharehttp://adweek.it/2kAAfGl copy Adweek Adweek

Wow, talk about a disconnect between movies and television from real life. According to a story (also here) that's been all over the radio this morning, a man "brandishing" a shotgun saved a womans life and was rewarded for his efforts by being fired from his job.
His name is Colin Bruley (random aside: it's hard to say that without thinking about Fight Club), and he lived and worked as a leasing agent for the Oaks at Mill Creek apartment complex in Jacksonville, Florida. He heard a woman screaming in the middle of the night. Instead of covering his head with a pillow, he grabbed one of his hunting guns and ran outside, to find a woman named Tonnetta Lee with a gunshot wound. Apparently he never used the gun, instead he spent his time giving first aid to the injured woman.
And here's the punchline: He was fired for "Gross Misconduct". From one article:
"Colin demonstrated extremely poor judgment in responding to this situation," the complaint said. "Colin's failure to immediately report this incident … could have serious ramifications to the property, its associates and residents."
No matter what your opinion is regarding guns, compare this story with any action movie or television show you've seen in the last couple of years. This guy would clearly be the hero of the story, a regular John McClane or Jack Bauer, and the corporation owning the apartment complex (Village Green Companies) would clearly be the villian.
In reality, Colin Bruley is now out of work and out of home and getting little attention from the national media (just try searching for his name on Google News). And Village Green Companies has no comment. Well, I don't care, Colin Bruley is a hero in my book, hopefully he will be in yours too.

Gardiner is located in Southwest Montana, at the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park, with the Yellowstone River running right through the middle of town. Founded in 1880, Gardiner became a center of activity for visitors to the region, serving as the original, and only year-round entrance to the park. Sandwiched between the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness to the North, the Gallatin Wilderness to the West and the world's first and most famous park - Yellowstone - to the South, seasonal activities abound, with a focus on the outdoors.
In the summer and fall, activities include fishing, hiking, horseback riding, pack trips, whitewater rafting, kayaking and hunting.
Elk regularly roam around town, and Pronghorn can often be spotted in the hills and meadows near town. Listen carefully and you are apt to hear Coyotes in the foothills in the evening. Black Bear and Grizzly Bear inhabit Yellowstone and the surrounding area. In the winter, Bald Eagles and Osprey abound on the Yellowstone River, while Bighorn Sheep come down to graze within view. The more cautious Moose may be seen on occasion in the canyon above town, alongside the ever present Deer and Bison.
In the winter, Yellowstone country is magically transformed under a blanket of snow, and cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and wildlife watching are the most popular activities.

The Florida Board of Accountancy is responsible for licensing Florida's CPAs and, in accordance with the Uniform Accountancy Act, requires applicants to have a bachelor's degree at minimum with a total of 150 semester hours of college credit, a year of experience, and passing scores on the Uniform CPA Exam. While satisfying the experience requirement, many CPA licensure candidates also begin working to earn a master's degree in accounting to satisfy the semester hour requirement for CPA licensure in Florida.
Major employers of CPAs in the state include public accounting firms Crowe Horwath, LLC located in Fort Lauderdale, as well as "Big Four" international CPA firms KPMG with offices in Miami and Ernst and Young with a location in Tampa.
CPAs involved in investigative accounting are credited with building the body of evidence responsible for prosecuting both white-collar crimes and the illicit money laundering activities of organized crime syndicates. Forensic accounting is emerging as one of the hottest jobs in accounting, and in Florida, major accounting firms like the Sanford Barrows Group, LLC as well as Miami's U.S. Marshals Service, retain these professionals for their unique investigative expertise.
The field of accounting is experiencing strong growth in Florida as Wall Street firms relocate their accounting offices to areas like Jacksonville where operational costs and tax rates are lower. For instance, the number of Deutsche Bank employees in Jacksonville increased from 600 to 1000 between the end of 2009 and July 2012 according to the New York Times.
The financial services industry is seeing a renaissance in south Florida, growing four times faster than in the rest of the country according to a January 2015 article in The Miami-Herald.
Not only are accounting salaries high in Florida, but the state's businesses and wealthy families help support many jobs for accountants and auditors according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. In 2014, Florida was home to the fourth highest number of accountants and auditors in the country. In particular, Tallahassee had the highest concentration of accounting jobs of any city in the nation.
The number of accounting positions is increasing faster in Florida than in the US as a whole. The total number of accounting positions in the state is expected to increase by 14% between 2014 and 2022, creating 25,424 jobs over this period according to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity.
Salaries for Accountants, CPAs and CFOs in Florida
The median salary among accountants in Florida was $100,194 a year in 2015 according to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. That is 53% higher than the national median for 2014 (US Bureau of Labor Statistics). Experienced accountants in Florida with CPA licenses earned an average of $124,987 a year in 2015.
Accountants in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area working in the financial services industry with more than five years of experience earned between $75,365 and $95,230 in 2015 according to the 2015 Robert Half Salary Guide.
The salaries of controllers at small financial services firms in Tampa ranged from $89,240 to $146,955. Forensic accountants in Orlando earned between $70,785 and $110,385 according to the 2015 Robert Half Salary Guide.
The highest average salary in the field was reserved for Chief Financial Officers (CFOs), who typically have many years of experience in management accounting and hold CPA licenses. CFOs at financial services firms in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area earned salaries ranging from $165,850 to $294,250 according to the 2015 Robert Half Salary Guide.
Salaries for Accountants and Auditors in Florida's Cities and Rural Areas
Salary data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics indicated that accountants and auditors in the Panama City area had the highest average salary in 2014, while accountants and auditors in the nonmetropolitan area of South Florida had the second highest average salary.
The 90th percentile in each area is representative of salaries for experienced accountants with CPA licenses.
Tax Preparer Salaries Throughout Florida
The average salary of Florida's tax preparers varied dramatically depending on their location. Tax preparers in the North Port-Bradenton-Sarasota area had by far the highest average salary in Florida in 2014:
Florida Governor Rick Scott recently signed into law a back to school sales tax holiday designed to encourage spending during the month of August. For a few days each August, no sales tax will be charged for clothing expenditures up to $75 or for the purchase of school supplies up to $15. Because consumers usually spend money on other items while shopping for back to school items, the state actually expects to collect an extra $7 million in tax revenue during this tax holiday.
The governor also recently instituted a military property tax exemption for active duty military members. Under this new law, military servicepersons do not have to pay Florida property tax on their homesteaded property while deployed outside of the United States. This applies to troops actively engaged in Operations New Dawn, Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom.

GORATH (1962) movie review
Gorath (aka Calamity Star Gorath) (1962) d. Honda, Ishiro (Japan)
When a spaceship on an exploratory mission to Saturn encounters a lethal runaway Red Dwarf star on a collision course with Earth, humanity's scientists scramble to find a solution. When it is determined that the titular celestial freight train's mass is over 6000 times that our own, the decision is made to shift the Earth's orbit out of Gorath's path. Great! (pause) Now, how do we do that?
The solution turns out to be a united world effort to construct an enormous field of atomic thrusters in the South Pole, which will motor our planet the requisite 400,000 kilometers to avoid decimation. This action is intercut with another interstellar flight to derive as much info about the planet-swallowing projectile as possible. Of course, there are stumbles along the way, in the form of underestimating Gorath's gravitational pull (and its effects on rocket ships and ocean tides) as well as the downside of heating up the coldest place on Earth with nuclear-powered rockets.
Originally, no kaiju were planned to appear, but when producer Tomoyuki Tanaka insisted in order to shore up foreign sales, a subplot involving a giant walrus (dubbed Maguma, with suitmation legend Haruo Nakajima inside the blubbery skin) was introduced. Ironically, this bit of footage was consequently trimmed for the U.S. release and only remains in the Japanese release. (Luckily, the online version I was able to track down was the widescreen, subtitled, Maguma-inclusive one, and for a last minute invention, it works pretty well.)
The key creative team members behind many of Toho's kaiju films unite once more for this curious amalgam of escapist thrills, human drama and social commentary. With Honda at the helm, prolific screenwriter Takeshi Kimura's script rich in character and plot, composer Akira Ikufube knocking out the stirring anthems, and f/x dynamo Eiji Tsuburaya whipping up miniature versions of every known vehicle on Earth and a few fantastic spacecrafts as well, expectations were high.
Unfortunately, the end result was a well polished production but one whose occasionally uneven tone, (relative) lack of giant monsters and fanciful physics did not win over the fans in the same fashion as the same year's King Kong vs. Godzilla. So ended Toho's brief space opera period, and the rock 'em, sock 'em, monster mash-up era was born.
Undeservedly relegated to footnote/sidebar status, Gorath is notable for Tsuburaya's effects (especially during the showstopping South Pole construction and flooding of Tokyo sequences), Kimura's multifaceted narrative, and a wealth of familiar genre faces including the lovely Kumi Mizuno and Yumi Shirakawa, with go-to hero Akira Kubo as a fresh-faced astronaut. A special salute to Kevin Horn, whose effusive and informative 50th anniversary panel at last year's G-FEST first clued me into this underrated apocalyptic epic.
