Parents shot, killed in Garner home; 3-year-old son OK
Parents shot, killed in Garner home; 3-year-old son OK
Wake County deputies say a 3-year-old boy was in a Garner home when his father and mother were shot to death.
Investigators say the bodies of 34-year-old Jose Samual Flores Mendoza and his 34-year-old wife Maria Saravia Mendoza were found around 12:30 a.m. Saturday after a neighbor called 911 because she heard loud noises.
Authorities say the couple's 3-year-old boy was in the home, but was not harmed. The Mendozas also have a 12-year-old child.
Deputies don't think either victim was responsible for the killings, but they are still gathering evidence.

This peptide is used to block Cleaved Caspase-3 (Asp175) Antibody #9661 and #9664 reactivity.
The quality of the peptide was evaluated by reversed-phase HPLC and by mass spectrometry. The peptide blocks Cleaved Caspase-3 (Asp175) Antibody #9661 by immunohistochemistry and Western Blotting.
Use as a blocking reagent to evaluate the specificity of antibody reactivity in immunohistochemistry and Western blot protocols. For immunohistochemistry, add twice the volume of peptide as volume of antibody used in 100 µl total volume. Incubate for a minimum of 30 minutes prior to adding the entire volume to the slide. Recommended antibody dilutions can be found on the relevant product data sheet.
For Western immunoblotting, add 10 µl of antibody and 10 µl of blocking peptide to 10 ml of antibody dilution buffer, and incubate at room
temperature for 30 minutes before allowing to react with the blot.
Supplied in 20 mM potassium phosphate (pH 7.0), 50 mM NaCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, 1 mg/ml BSA, 5% glycerol and 1% DMSO. Store at –20°C.
Caspase-3 (CPP-32, Apoptain, Yama, SCA-1) is a critical executioner of apoptosis, as it is either partially or totally responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of many key proteins, such as the nuclear enzyme poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) (1). Activation of caspase-3 requires proteolytic processing of its inactive zymogen into activated p17 and p12 fragments. Cleavage of caspase-3 requires the aspartic acid residue at the P1 position (2).

Chinese Holstein cows
Alpha 1-antitrypsin (α1-AT) may affect the susceptibility of mastitis in dairy cattle for its possible role in the protection of lactoferrin from proteolytic degradation in the mammary. Milk somatic cell score (SCS) is a logarithmic transformation of the milk somatic cell count widely used as an index to evaluate mastitis. To study the relationships of α1-AT gene and SCS in Chinese Holstein cows, methods of PCR-SSCP, DNA sequencing, PCR-RFLP, and CRS-PCR technologies were used to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms sites in α1-AT gene.

Identifying and countering the bad habits that keep your strategy from getting executed is not an easy process, but — as I elaborate on in my book Breaking Bad Habits — there are various practices you can build into your organization to make it work. Depending on your specific circumstances and strategy, this mightinvolve taking on difficult clients or projects that fit your new strategy and that trigger learning throughout the firm. It may involve reshuffling people into different units, to disrupt and alter habitual ways of working and to expose people to alternative ways of doing things. It may also involve identifying key processes and explicitly asking the question "Why do we do it this way?" If the answer is a shrug of the shoulders and a proclamationof "That's how we've always done it," it may be a prime candidate for change.
There are usually different ways of doing things, and there is seldom one perfect solution, since all alternatives have advantages and disadvantages — whether it concerns an organization's structure, incentive system, or resource allocation process. We often resist change unless it is crystal clear that the alternative is substantially better. For a successful strategy implementation process, however, it is useful to put the default the other way around: Change it unless it is crystal clear that the old way is substantially better. Execution involves change. Embrace it.

Good article. "Strategy" is so loosely (and sloppily) applied it is no wonder most get it wrong. A strategy is a sentence (and not much more) that explains why the desired action – buying a product, voting for a specific candidate, or donating to a cause – fulfills both the goal and the reason why people will modify their behavior. I wrote about this here https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/dating-halle-berry-death-strategy-bill-mcintyre/

WASHINGTON (AP) — Ann Romney buys Mitt shirts by the three-pack at Costco, and sometimes he does his own ironing. She's so moved by their commitment to tithing that, when they give the check to their church, she cries. They both envision a White House enlivened by "little feet in the hallway": their 18 visiting grandkids. As they try to warm up a candidate burdened by a cold-fish image, the Romneys are dishing out the endearing details.
Here's one America may not be ready for: Instead of syrup, he slathers his pancakes with peanut butter.
Such homey nuggets, part of an all-out effort anchored by this week's Republican National Convention, are meant to showcase a softer side for voters who may know Romney mostly as a multimillionaire businessman who occasionally blurts out something tone-deaf, such as "I like being able to fire people who provide services to me."
Polls put the presidential race neck in neck but give President Barack Obama a substantial lead when it comes to likeability and perceived empathy for regular folks.
How to turn that around? Invite a "60 Minutes" crew along on a visit to the Birmingham, Mich., movie theater where teen-aged Mitt and Ann had their first date, to see "The Sound of Music." Get their five handsome sons talking up Dad on TV. Invite reporters into the Romneys' spacious New Hampshire summer home on Lake Winnipesaukee to watch him flip pancakes, josh with his sons and frolic with the grandchildren and their dog.
Some of the personal stuff the Romneys are sharing:
To the grandkids, he's "Papa" and she's "Mamie."
Twenty-eight sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren pile into the lake house each summer for a weeklong reunion featuring family competitions known as the "Romney Olympics," from running races and tossing footballs to offbeat categories like sawing and hammering.
Another reunion tradition: The adults gather in the evenings to chew over each young couple's troubles and offer suggestions.
"We begin by taking one couple and let's talk about your life and the decisions you have, and everybody offers advice," Romney tells Fox News Channel.
Sound squirm-inducing? Son Tagg admits he's careful about which issues he puts on the table.
Mrs. Romney tells Parade magazine that tithing 10 percent to their church is an emotional time that reminds her "how much we trust God and love the principle of sacrifice."
"I love tithing. When Mitt and I give that check, I actually cry," she says.
"So do I," Romney jokes, "but for a different reason."
Despite his stiff image, joking around is typical of Romney when he's away from the cameras and doesn't have to watch every word, his wife says.
"Get him out of the public eye, put him in here, he is as loose and funny and spontaneous as you'd ever want to see and just so much fun to be with," she tells CNN in an interview held at the summer home.
The Romneys do their own cleaning and laundry — 12 loads after this year's family reunion — because "You know, Mitt and I are pretty independent. That's how we like it."
She cries sometimes when listening to his speeches, though she's heard the stories before. He cries, too — but don't expect him to let people see it.
"I'm an emotional person," he says. "There is a, I don't know, a societal norm that if you're running for office, you can't be emotional, and perhaps I bow to that too often."
He was a high school senior and she was 16 when they met at a dance. She played it coy.
"I did fall madly in love with him very quickly, actually," she says. "But I was very aloof, very cool."
He agrees: "She set the hook deep. And I'd call and say, let's get together — she was too busy. She went on with a date with someone else while I was pursuing her. Made me just crazy."
Romney's faith was strengthened by the 2½ years he spent traveling through France as a young Mormon missionary in the 1960s. Lots of doors were slammed in his face.
"You're out speaking with people, people day in and day out, about your faith, and about your religion and differences between it and other faiths. ... But you say, OK, wait a second. What's important here? What do I believe? What's truth? Is there a God? Is Jesus Christ the son of God?"
Fox News Channel asked Romney's five sons to describe him in one word:
"Frugal" and the more direct "cheap" come up. But so does "generous."
"Qualified" and "integrity" round out the list.
Mrs. Romney tears up when she talks about how her husband stood by her when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1998: "It was like he was going to do anything he could to just say, I'm here, you're OK, just stay right there, and we'll be OK."
Amid all the interviews meant to humanize him, this time speaking with Parade, Romney tacitly acknowledges he's got image trouble but says what he can do for the economy is more important.
"It's nice to be loved," he says, "but it's better to be respected."

Tina�s 2nd Annual Talent Show will be held on Saturday, at the Jasper P. Hayes Omega Center.
Tina�s 2nd Annual Talent Show will be held on Saturday, at the Jasper P. Hayes Omega Center.
The show is a benefit to raise money for repairs to the center, which is listed as a state historic landmark. The building was built in 1956 and was the first gymnasium in New Bern for African-Americans.
The funds raised from the first show held last year in November helped to begin painting the exterior of the building. This year the funds will be used to pay for broken windows on the front of the building.
Church events, food disbursements, civic meetings, weddings and receptions are some of the events held at the facility.
Tina Adkins said she wanted to do something to help because the building is such an important part of the black community. She came up with the idea of a talent show because she thought it would be fun and an opportunity for the community to display various talents.
The show will have a variety of performers including singers, dancers, comedians, musicians and more. The winners are selected by judges; however there will be a dance contest where the audience will select the winner by applause. There will be a raffle drawing along with door prizes. Raffle tickets are $1.
There will also be a special performance by the James City Steppers and James Reaves, T. Danns, JacQuatta Wilson, Malecia Williams, and Kia Roussell, all members of Shooting Star Productions who will perform a special tribute honoring fallen singers including Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Luther Vandross, and Lisa �Left Eye� Lopez.
�I�m excited,� Adkins said. �I really enjoyed the show last year. It was great to see so many people come out with their families. Local businesses and individuals have shown me a lot of support by donating raffle and door prizes. Everyone has been so helpful with the planning of the event and I think people are looking forward to it.�
Alfred Barfield stated that it was really nice to have such a family oriented event taking place at the center. Barfield is the president of the organization that is in charge of the building.
The show will be hosted by Johnny �Koolout� Starks, a disc jockey for KISS 102, a local radio station. Doors will open at 3 p.m. and the show will begin at 4 p.m. Tickets are $5 in advance and $7 at the door for adults and admission for children is $3.
For more information or to purchase a ticket, call Tina at 259-8702, Alfred Barfield at 671-5722 or Mae Henderson, 497-0395.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Pecos artist Sally Chandler guided eighth graders from the Odom Academy of Beaumont as they painted a 13-foot-long, 6-foot high mural on the wall of the Art Museum of Southeast Texas (AMSET) Tuesday, April 16.
"They're doing such a good job," Chandler said. "Yesterday, we spent most of the day talking about 'The Lost World' (Chandler's exhibit). There are 18 (children) and they each have their own space and each have their own stories."
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

3 women killed in NC head-on crash
3 women killed in NC head-on crash
Three women have died in a wreck in Bladen County.
The Fayetteville Observer reported that The North Carolina Highway Patrol says the wreck happened shortly after 8 a.m. Monday about a mile north of Clarkton.
Trooper J.P. Weissinger says 48-year-old Lynette Holt Chavez of Clarkton was driving an SUV that crossed the centerline of a highway.
Chavez's vehicle hit a car driven by 53-year-old Rosaland Rouse Monroe of Clarkton.
Monroe's daughter, 33-year-old Crystal Renee Monroe, also died in the wreck.
Weissinger says all three women died at the scene.

Instead, the company announced "Knowledge Graph Search," hereinafter known as KGS. It's a graphical method of developing searches on your own Facebook data and that of people you know. The more dependent you become on Facebook, the more friends you make there, the more value this delivers.
Your friends, photos, places, and interests can all become searchable with this, so the stocks most hurt by this announcement were those, like LinkedIn
Facebook gave some examples of what can be done. If you want to know where surfers in Laguna Beach go for coffee, what TV shows doctors like, or the music preferences of Mitt Romney's fans, there is now a way to do that. But you have to get in -- you have to "friend" these other accounts -- to get something out.
What this tells me is that suspicion of Facebook, the tendency to seek privacy from sharing of data with other users, is as much a target here as anything. While this doesn't impact Google
Facebook credited two ex-Googlers, Lars Rasmussen and Tom Stocky, with leading its KGS team,
If there is a "Google killer" in all this, it is that searches that don't get answered by KGS will go instead to Microsoft's
For now, the new feature is said to be in "limited beta," only offered in English, and on a subset of Facebook's data. It should roll out across other languages and the whole Facebook data set throughout the year.
Advertisers will race to get "liked" by Facebook users so they can participate in this. But how many Facebook users are really interested in liking businesses, as opposed to making actual online friends? And how much are users who like to friend businesses really worth to those businesses?
You can build a feature like this, in other words, but creating value from it requires training people to use it, and getting people to sign up for it. That will follow what I call "Moore's Law of Training," which states that there is no Moore's Law of Training. People learn, in other words, only as fast as they learn. They adapt to new things only as fast as they adapt, and everyone does so at different rates.
So what happens now? People who love Facebook are going to love KGS. People who don't love Facebook won't get as much from it. This separates the Facebook lovers from other users, in terms of the value they get from the service, so Facebook's numbers are bound to get more honest.
As with everything else, social is moving into its consolidation phase. There will be far fewer social networking companies at the end of this year than there are now, and the venture capital window has long since closed. Facebook is going to be one of those survivors. How much is that worth to you?

This is a sexual act decision making device. Obviously you need a dartboard and darts. But you also need small pieces of paper with your favorite sexaul acts on it. The pieces of paper will be attached to the dartboard and your partner will throw a dart at the board to decide which sexaul act will be performed that evening. This also can be used for an entire weekend of fun or at an orgy.
Rebecca could not decide what she wanted Sean to do to her the Saturday before she married Tom so they played the Gaston Dart Game. Before the sun went down she had been hot carled, Cleveland Steamered, Strawberry Shortcaked, Tonya Danzad, Donkey Punched, and don the Alligator Fuckhouse 3 times. She had scares that make-up wouldn't hide and her vagania was bleeding profusely, but at least the concusion would make her forget Sean before she said "I Do" to Tom.

Heir of the big dog.
Toyota used this year's New York International Auto Show to launch its youth brand, called Scion. An outgrowth of the 1998 Genesis group experiment that gave us cars such as the MR2 Spyder and the Echo, Scion hopes to capture the imagination of the so-called Net Generation. Toyota is desperate to appeal to this sixteen-to-twenty-four-year-old demographic, which has been migrating away from Toyota. Currently, the median age of the Toyota buyer is forty-six years.
So, as a burnt offering to the cult of youth, Toyota presents the Scion bbX. The bbX is nominally a concept car; it has been on sale as the Black Box (or bB) in Japan for two years now. Starting in June 2003, Scion will sell an Americanized version of the Black Box (as well as another Scion car) out of a special corner of Toyota dealerships.
Many a showgoer questioned the wisdom of aggressively marketing to a group of consumers who, according to Toyota's own research, detest aggressive marketing. The assembled showgoers also questioned the car. The bbX might look cool to a nation of penned-in Chevy Astro aspirants (i.e., Japan), but its resonance on the wide-open plains of America may be faint. It certainly didn't have the journalists scrumming around it the way Honda's Element did.
Like the Element, the bbX is a living room on wheels, with "phone-booth-like headroom," according to Jim Press, Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A.'s senior vice president and chief operating officer. "It also has phone-booth styling," noted one observer. But the Pioneer sound system inside is a stunner, with an available 1350 watts of power. The bbX also uses a coil-over suspension. More details will follow as the liftoff for Scion nears.
Like all big launches, Toyota knows this one is an experiment. As Press remarked, "We know we're going to make some mistakes." If you're Toyota, you can afford to.

At Vacheron Constantin all our diamonds are purchased from suppliers who apply the World Diamond Council System of Warranties based on the Kimberley Process in order to ensure they have been purchased from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict and in compliance with the United Nations resolution.
Vacheron Constantin ensures legitimate sourcing by ensuring the application of the Kimberley Process.
The Kimberley Process is a joint government, international diamond industry and civil society initiative to stem the flow of conflict diamonds. The Kimberley Process Certification Scheme requires participating nations to keep conflict diamonds out of legitimate channels of commerce.
As far as possible, we ask our suppliers to provide assurance that the gold being supplied has been mined in a way which respects human and labor rights and the environment. We continue to work with suppliers and refiners in this respect to seek to improve controls over the supply chain, where possible. We continue to work closely with the Responsible Jewellery Council to help improve the gold supply chain. In addition to this industry-wide approach, we work with our gold suppliers to strengthen the inclusion of ethical criteria at all levels of our gold sourcing supply chain.
Strengthen the implementation of ethical criteria on all levels of our gold sourcing supply chain.
Membership of the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) promotes a robust approach to these supply chain issues for us and other businesses in the watchmaking industry: from mines to retail.

British singer Ellie Goulding turned heads at the London premiere of Les Miserables on Wednesday (05Dec12) after walking the red carpet in a see-through dress.
The Lights hitmaker, who recently split from DJ boyfriend Skrillex, was at the launch to support pals Anne Hathaway and Amanda Seyfried, but she stole the show when she arrived wearing a white sheer gown with no bra, exposing her nipples.
Goulding, whose dark underwear could also visible, appeared not to mind the extra attention and she smiled confidently for the cameras as she mingled at the event.
The 25 year old isn't the only celebrity to reveal a little too much for the cameras - reality star Khloe Kardashian's pert nipples were on show when she debuted as the co-host of The X Factor last month (Nov12), and actress Emma Watson exposed a silicone pastie covering her modesty during the Los Angeles premiere of The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Separate Accidents in Port Arthur lead to fatality and broken leg
It was a dangerous and deadly weekend on Port Arthur roads.
A 35-year-old League City man died from injuries he sustained early Saturday morning when the SUV he was driving struck a concrete divider at what police call "highway speeds." The accident occurred in the 1100 block of State Highway 73 westbound, just west of the Savannah Overpass, according to a release from Port Arthur Police Sgt. Shawn Perron. The driver was identified as Adam Dicks. He was taken to the Southeast Texas Medical Center where he died from his injuries. No other vehicles were involved in the accident.
On Friday, in the 3200 block of 11th Street in Port Arthur, a six-year-old girl was struck by a grey Honda Accord as she crossed the street. The vehicle did not stop after the accident and continued on. Fortunately, once at the scene, police were given a description of the car, but before they could begin their search, the driver of the car returned to the scene and identified himself. He told police he left the scene because he was scared but after careful consideration, elected to turn himself in to police. The girl was taken to St. Elizabeth Hospital with a broken leg.

The final months of the Civil War, a time when President Abraham Lincoln struggled to end slavery and bring the Confederate States of America back into the fold of the Union, are among the most important moments in Unites States history. They're also the murkiest. Eleventh grade American History tried to teach us war, four scores, Emancipation Proclamation, the 13th Amendment, and a fateful night at the theater but with a few hundred years' worth of events to process, most people leave school knowing that Lincoln made a couple of important moves that turned the world what it is today.
Thankfully, we now have a film, courtesy of the legendary Steven Spielberg, that brings the 16th President's amazing uphill battle to cinematic life. The cold hard facts could not be more impressive.
For Lincoln, an adaptation of the Doris Kearns Goodwin's biography Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln, Spielberg scales down his usual blockbuster sensibilities (last seen in 2011's World War I melodrama War Horse) to craft an intimate portrait of an iconic political figure. To pull it off, writer Tony Kushner (Munich and the two-part Angels in America) constructs the film like a play, relying on the soothing, chameleon presence of Daniel Day-Lewis to breath life into Lincoln's poetic waxing. The president hits roadblock after roadblock on his quest to free the slaves and end the war, Kushner and Spielberg weaving in handfuls of characters to pull him in various directions (and accurately represent the real life events). Each time, Day-Lewis' Lincoln gracefully dances the dance, solving every problem with action and words. Today, Lincoln is held in high regard as an inspirational figure. Spielberg shows us why.
Lincoln isn't a full-blown birth-to-death biopic of the Great Emancipator, and is all the better for it. Picking up in January of 1865, years into the Civil War, Lincoln summons his Secretary of State William Seward (David Strathairn) to say enough is enough the time is ripe for the abolishing of slavery. Against the vocal naysayers of the Union, and even his personal confidants, Lincoln attempts to rally the congressmen he needs to make his bill an amendment. He hires three men (John Hawkes, Tim Blake Nelson, and the wonderfully outrageous James Spader) to use whatever nonviolent means possible to swing the vote. All the while, well-spoken adversaries (like Lee Pace's Fernando Wood) take to the House of Representatives floor to discredit Lincoln and dissuade congressmen. Keeping the progressive foot in the door is Thaddeus Stevens (Tommy Lee Jones), a foul-mouthed powerhouse who shares Lincoln's ambitious dreams of equality.
The story is simple, but Kushner doesn't shy away from laying down lengthy passages of political discussion in order to show the importance of Lincoln's task. It's dense material, spruced up with Kushner's ear for dialogue. But even so, it occasionally meanders into Ken Burns documentary territory. Case in point: there are so many characters with beards in Lincoln, Spielberg even flashes title cards underneath their opening scenes just so we're not lost. The fact-heavy approach takes getting used to, but Spielberg and Kushner adeptly dig deep beyond the political gabfest to find a human side to Lincoln. He's a gentle man, a warm man, and a hilarious man. The duo's Honest Abe never shies away from a good story at times, he's like Grandpa from The Simpsons, lost in his own anecdotes (much to the dismay of his cabinet). Day-Lewis chews scenery, as hinted at in the trailers, but with absolute restraint. That makes his sudden outbursts really pop. When Lincoln becomes fed up with pussyfooting politicians, like the quivering representatives played by Walton Goggins and Michael Stuhlbarg, Day-Lewis cranks the high-pitched president up to 10. He never falters.
There's a great deal of humor and heart in Lincoln partially because the circus-like antics of Washington D.C. feel all too close-to-home in this day and age and Spielberg paces it all with expert camera work. The drama is iffier: a side story involving Lincoln's son Robert (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) teases an interesting family dynamic that is never fully explored, and is clunky when dropped to the wayside in favor of larger issues. Same goes for Lincoln's wife Mary Todd (Sally Field), who continues to grieve for the couple's lost child. They are important issues, but they don't quite work in the fabric of this specific narrative.
The larger world outside the offices of the White House and Congress is often forgotten too we hear a lot of war talk, without seeing a whole lot of war. Instances where Lincoln ventures out into fields of the dead have emotional impact, but we feel disconnected from it. Where Spielberg really gets it right is in the chaos of the presidential occupation. There is no easy task for Lincoln. ''I may have been wrong about that,'' says Abe, referencing his issuing of the Emancipation Proclamation, ''but I wanted the people to tell me if I was.'' Day-Lewis understands Lincoln's complex internal thought and brings it forward in each scene: humble, confident, deadly, and compassionate.
Spielberg's technical team once again wows and echoes the lead performance. Director of Photography Janusz Kaminski's contrasting photography, near chiaroscuro, makes the beautiful set and production design hyper real, and highlights the actors' aging faces. Composer John Williams returns once again, but with a score as low-key as Day-Lewis' character a change of pace when compared to War Horse. It's all up to par with Spielberg's past work without turning Lincoln into a flashy period drama.
Day-Lewis was the talk of the town when the first Lincoln trailers made their way on the web. Surprisingly, however, Lincoln wows because it's a well-balanced ensemble drama. Lee Jones delivers his best work in a decade as the grouchy idealist, Spader delivers the comedic performance of the fall season, and every scene introduces another familiar face to add additional gravitas to the picture (as opposed to being a distracting cameo fest). S. Epatha Merkerson's late-in-the-game scene opens up the tear ducts in a way that none of her male costars can.
If history isn't one of your interests, Lincoln may not rouse you background reading not required, but conversation moves at lightning speed and without much hand-holding. It's a change of pace for Spielberg, and a welcome one. With all the bells and whistles that come with being the biggest director of all time, Lincoln looks amazing, sounds amazing,

Kcal 523 Fat 33.2 Fat(sats) 19.5g Carbs 48.8g (per 100.0g)
In what seems like a bid to give UK consumers what they want, Thorntons have decided to continue to add limited edition flavours to their square bars range - Woohoo! Indeed, it was with great delight that last week I saw this Dark Chocolate with Colombian Coffee bar poking out from the usual selection on the shelf (it must be pretty new given that the cashier who served me didn't recognise it herself!). Long time ChocolateMission readers will know that I have a huge soft spot for good quality coffee flavoured chocolates, the Lindt Excellence Coffee Intense stands out in my mind as one of the best around - See HERE. This Thorntons offering sounded equally as good, and promised an experience combining 'dark chocolate with full roasted ground coffee from the finest beans in Colombia'.
This limited edition flavour came in a 80.0g size that I greedily kept all for myself. I find commenting on the packaging and presentation really hard to do given that I have written so many reviews on this range already. The design work varies very little from flavour-to-flavour, though I guess it could be said that the choice of colour used was at least appropriate for the coffee theme. The chocolate itself was maintained within a foil wrapper, which of course did it's usual fantastic job of keeping the chocolate in fresh, well kept condition. Not to my surprise the aromas that descended from the foil packet when unsealed smelt absolutely delicious, with the roasted coffee bean scents taking no time at all to wash over my senses.
There was only one way to eat this coffee flavoured chocolate, and that was of course with a freshly made, filtered black americano. Armed with my mid-afternoon/after dinner cups of energy, I didn't waste any time getting stuck in to this bar, and I consumed it over the course of these two different sittings. From the very first piece, until the very last I can reveal this was a very enjoyable and pleasant chocolate to eat. Despite the chocolate actually being billed as a little stronger (53.0% cocoa) compared to the Lindt Excellence Coffee Intense, I wouldn't quite say it was as full of flavour even though it was still delightfully crisp and clean in taste. Indeed the base dark chocolate had a nicely balanced cocoa taste that had notes of fruit and brown sugar amongst it's chocolate flavour hit delivery. The melt of the chocolate was wonderfully smooth, however there were some blocks where the roasted coffee bean particles seemed to have amassed which made the texture in some pieces feel a little rough. Speaking of the coffee element itself, unlike the poor distribution of the grounded bean bits suggested the coffee flavours were consistent and came through well in the taste during the latter development of the melt. I often complain that coffee chocolates can be a little underpowered, however the balance of cocoa and coffee impacting on the taste was well managed and was just about right for me here.
Overall this was a very decent chocolate bar, and was probably one of the nicest I have tried from this Thorntons square bar range. If I was to directly compare it to the Lindt Excellence Coffee Intense, I would say the Lindt product is marginally the better out of the two, though to be honest there really wasn't too much to pick between them. I think the Lindt bar just surpasses this Thorntons' offering by having a slightly fuller bodied chocolate, and by integrating the roasted coffee a little more consistently, which helps the smoothness of the melt. These very, very minor blips aside, this was a very well manufactured chocolate from my friends at Thorntons and is one that I will definitely be repurchasing before they cruelly take it away from us. I can only hope that Thorntons make the decision to keep this as part of the permanent range, if they do so coffee flavoured chocolate fans rejoice as this is one very fine tasting bar.

A New Lebanon?
Lebanon is smaller than Connecticut and scarcely more populous. Its economy, still struggling to recoup the losses of the 1975–1990 civil war, hardly amounts to the annual turnover at McDonald's. What is so special about the country? The immediate answer is that this statelet, which was subtracted by French imperialists from greater Syria, has suddenly found itself to be the fine point upon which the fate of a much wider region balances.
That sounds an oversized claim, but an extraordinary passion play has been unfolding in Beirut over the last few weeks. It is a drama that happens to pit forces which, in a particularly stark fashion, seem to represent the competing narratives that will ultimately define the Arabs' vision of their recent past and soon-to-be-revealed destiny. These forces are, in many ways, similar to those that have clashed within every Arab society, and continue to do so, in what some historians describe as a struggle between the cosmopolitan Arabs of the coastal cities and those of the inward-looking hinterland. And just now, on the Arab airwaves transmitting scenes from the streets of Beirut, a turning of the tide in this struggle may be fleetingly discerned.
On one side stand what might be called the Pan-Arab nationalists, whose strident voice has dominated the past half-century. This voice was first raised in anger against European imperialism, and later against the intrusion of Israel into the Arab heartland, but it has grown increasingly inflected with the rhetoric of militant political Islam. On March 8 these "nationalists" poured into the city center in force, heeding the call of Hassan Nasrallah, the forty-one-year-old leader of Hezbollah, the Shiite militia-cum-political-party that became a national force through its resistance to Israel's long occupation of Lebanon's south. Perhaps half a million people, poor Shiites from South Beirut's slums, Palestinians from the country's miserable archipelago of refugee camps, young and old, veiled and not, cheered the bearded Nasrallah (whose name, incidentally, means Victory of God) as he denounced the usual villains, Americans and Zionists and their lackeys. Death to Israel, they chanted, to a backbeat of amplified hymns condemning America as the Mother of Terror.
It was the largest gathering of people in Lebanon's turbulent history, and a persuasively fervent show of support for resistance to all forms of non-Arab, non-Muslim influence. In local politics, this meant support for Baathist Syria, seen as a last redoubt of Uruba, or Arabism, amid a rising sea of American hegemony. It also meant backing for the Syrian-supported components of the post–civil war Lebanese order, including political parties allied with Syria, the intelligence services, and of course the small but effective Hezbollah guerrilla army which, having hounded Israel out of its long occupation in the south, is seen by many as the only deterrent to future Israeli aggression. To the "loyalist" camp, those who support the connection with Syria, this is the order that has ensured Lebanon's return to peace and to its natural place as an integral part of the…

This ride consists of two loops that total 282 miles that will fill a weekend of dual sport riding. The loops are principally in the National Forest south of Wabeno.
I initially developed these tracks to use as part of a dual sport event. The forest service found that the extensive use of somewhat dim forest paths on these tracks would have made permitting for a major group ride so time intensive that a time/fee threshold would have been exceeded triggering some significant costs. Based on that, the event hosts were not able to use the tracks.
Nonetheless, the tracks are an excellent ride for people to do on their own. As you know, riding dual sport motorcycles as individuals apart from an event is permitted on paths open to motorized use in the National Forest.
I checked these tracks against the Motor Vehicle Use Map and they are good to go except for a couple of spots where there are seasonal limitations which I have noted and provided alternate routes for.
Here is an overview of the tracks. They begin and end in Wabeno.
The first segment from Wabeno to gas in Crooked Lake is about 63 miles. There are two potential closures on this segment. The first is indicated by the yellow go-around and shows that a side loop is only open in the fall. The second go-around has to do with a temporary closure on a popular rugged 4WD path called "The Pipeline". This segment normally opens on 1 June but is temporarily closed until some repairs can be made. As a side note, I wouldn't ride into any water holes on the 4WD path as you may find they are very deep.
On the way to Crooked Lake, you will be routed onto an ATV trail in the National Forest. Normally motorcycles are not allowed on this county ATV trail, but in the National Forest the trail is a road on the MVUM that is open to dual sport motorcycles so these is no problem with using the trail included on this track.
Once at Crooked Lake, get gas and then decide if you want to take the blue loop south of Crooked Lake. If it is early in the day, go for it. If it is late, you can by-pass it and head back toward Wabeno. The blue loop is about 43 miles long and can be a sporty ride.
Once back in Crooked Lake, top off and head back to Wabeno on the third segment which is 47 miles long. There is also a seasonal go-around (yellow) on this route. The dates are listed and the main segment that is by-passed is open in the fall. Note that you will again be routed onto an ATV trail that is a forest road as described earlier. Once you get to Forest County, you are allowed to ride on the multi-use rail road grade trail that goes back to Wabeno. We recently were able to get permission for dual sport motorcycles to use the Forest County portion of this State trail.
The above loop is my favorite of the two. The people that have test ridden the path found it to be a challenge and a blast.
The second loop is better for a shorter day. It runs about 130 miles with gas at 62 and 67 miles.
This one has a little more road on it because in some spots there were few alternatives. As before, the return trip on the railroad grade trail in Forest County is open to dual sports as long as the trail is open (probably opens in May).
The motocross track is private and not part of this loop.
Have fun but exercise due caution. Don't ride this alone as there are some pretty dim spots along the route where people seldom go.

HOTEL CASA del PARQUE is a beautiful property in the majestic colonial city of Antigua Guatemala. We are only a 30 second walk from Antigua's central park in a very safe and tranquil location, in the heart of the city. This ensures your stay will be comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel was built as Hotel Casa Azul in 1997. We acquired the property, remodeled it in Nov-Dec 2009, and renamed it Hotel Casa del Parque for its closeness to Antigua's beautiful central park. We are as centrally located as you get. There are many good restaurants and shopping areas within a 2 minute walk, and Antigua's beautiful central park and Cathedral of Antigua is only a 30 second walk. Next door is a commercial center that has 3 nice restaurants and 3 bars in it. One restaurant is Lava, a gourmet burger place. For the bars, there is a kind of newly famous Blues and Jazz bar named Ocelot. There is also a high end whiskey bar named The Whiskey Den. This is one of the many reasons Antigua is so nice, you can walk anywhere in just a few minutes, and enjoy every minute of your walk, all the while meeting interesting and different people.

According to Casio's claims, the EXILIM EX-S200 is the world's slimmest camera, not just the brand's, and that it is only 14.9mm thick at its thinnest point. Plus, the company says that it's only the size of a credit card.
Well, we can safely say that it would, indeed, fit into a pair of skinny jeans, and it's hard to dispute its boast that it's the world's thinnest - the Pocket-lint certainly can't remember seeing anything more slim. But, the size of a credit card? Surely not?
Well, it's not quite. It's actually a little wider, but considering that it's actually a 14.1 megapixel camera, Casio can be forgiven for slight exaggeration.
It can also be forgiven for a few gremlins in the system, as we were told before we switched the camera on that the firmware is not finalised, and that there may be sporadic glitches. Also, the resolution isn't quite as stable as the mass-market product yet. Nonetheless, what we did see was impressive indeed.
With Single Frame SR Zoom, the EX-S200 can maintain image quality through 1.5 times the range of the optical zoom, and we're certainly impressed with the results. Unlike with other digital zooms, the extra range in this instance is gained without adding any artefacts.
Also, we love the Quick Mode function, which, with a single press of the shutter button, turns on the camera, takes a pic, previews it for you to see, and then turns the camera off again. You need never miss that shot of an elephant buying crisps in Tesco ever again.
The EX-S200 will be out mid-September (more than enough time to nail down the firmware) for around £199. And check back here for a complete review when the final build is ready...

Efforts to create silk matching that produced by silkworms and spiders have fallen short, in part because researchers aren't entirely sure how the spinners of the animal kingdom manage the chemistry going on in their bodies. We'll talk about what's known about silk, what researchers still need to figure out, and about potential applications for the fibers in everything from medical implants to electronic devices.

Microsoft-Funded BitTorrent Disruptor Won't Make Pirates Pay, But Might Break The Law
from the pointless dept
"We used a number of servers to make a connection to each and every P2P client that distributed this film. Then Pirate Pay sent specific traffic to confuse these clients about the real IP-addresses of other clients and to make them disconnect from each other," Andrei Klimenko says.John Pettitt, former VP of engineering at BitTorrent (who we've heard from before in a very different context related to software patents), noted in a mailing to Dave Farber's IP list that what Pirate Pay described didn't sound particularly effective or (more importantly) particularly legal.
Reading the article it sound like they are spoofing traffic to confuse torrent clients and force disconnects. It's not at all clear if this will work against all versions of the protocol (particularly the udp based version). Leaving aside the technical issues it's also unclear if such action is legal. It sounds like a targeted denial of service attack, a major corporation paying for such an attack leaves itself wide open to civil and criminal legal action particularly if they accidentally target the wrong torrent which given the history is highly likely.Anyone want to take a guess as to how long it will be until a major entertainment company issues one of these misguided attacks on the wrong torrent, leading to an effective denial of service against legitimate content?
One other thought on this. The company's name is "Pirate Pay," which I'm sure the Hollywood folks get a kick out of. However, it's worth asking the question: how much of this activity would actually get anyone to pay? We've noted in the past that the entertainment industry seems much more focused on "stopping piracy" than it is on "getting more people to pay." You can argue that the former leads to the latter but there's little evidence to suggest that's true. Yet there is tremendous evidence that offering compelling services without significant restrictions at a reasonable price does, in fact, get people to pay. It's a tragedy that the industry isn't doing nearly enough of that, but instead seems focused on these harebrained (and potentially illegal) schemes to attack people.

Why Are My Breasts Sore?
What's in this article?
Should I Worry?
Like most parts of the body, breasts can be sore from time to time. Not only for girls, but for guys, too. You may be worried about your body's development, about what causes breast soreness, and even about cancer.
If you're a girl, you may have noticed a slightly sore feeling when you wash your breasts in the shower. Or maybe you felt an ache when you've rolled onto your stomach in bed. Sometimes it may have felt like your breasts gained 10 pounds overnight.
If you're a guy, you may have noticed some tenderness and even a lump beneath your nipple area.
Whether it's a dull ache or a sharp pain, soreness in your breasts can be scary. TV shows, magazines, and newspapers are filled with information about breast cancer, so it's easy to think your pain could make you a statistic, but don't freak out.
The truth is that breast pain in a teen is rarely cancer. So what is pain from and how can you be sure?
Why Do I Have Breasts Anyway?
All mammals have breasts and humans are no exception. Breasts, which are milk-producing glands, begin to enlarge in females around the onset of puberty. Breasts are made of fat and other tissue that surround and protect nerves, blood vessels, and milk ducts (small tube-like paths).
The main biological reason young women have breasts is to allow them to feed babies. Since long before the invention of the bottle, babies have been nursed (fed milk) straight from their mothers' nipples. Although some women give their babies formula from bottles, many women still breastfeed their newborns. In fact, doctors recommend breastfeeding as the best way to meet a baby's nutritional needs.
The timing of breast development varies from girl to girl. Most girls begin getting breasts around 10 or 11, but it's normal for breast development to start anytime between the ages of 8 and 13. In general, it takes 4 to 5 years for a girl's breasts to reach their adult size.
When guys start puberty it is common to develop a small amount of breast enlargement too. During puberty, hormones in the body can cause the breasts to grow larger. The difference is for guys, this condition is called gynecomastia and is usually temporary.
What Causes Soreness?
One of the most common times that breasts might feel sore is when they are beginning to develop. First you might notice a small button-like lump beneath the nipple area. The medical name for this is the breast bud, and it is often present in guys and girls. The breast bud may be a little tender and may cause you to worry but it's a normal part of puberty.
It is also common to have sore breasts around the beginning of a girl's period, or menstruation. During her menstrual cycle, a girl's body produces lots of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone.
Changes in these hormones can cause feelings that together are called premenstrual syndrome, or PMS. Some girls have painful cramps in their stomachs, headaches, mood swings, or cravings for certain foods right before their periods begin. During this time the body may retain water, which can make a girl feel puffy and bloated. Rings and shoes may feel tight at this time.
Just as fingers and feet swell, so can breasts. All that fluid forces the breast tissues to expand, which stretches the nerves and makes breasts feel achy or tender.
Breast swelling and tenderness can also be one of the earliest signs of pregnancy. Be sure to talk to a parent or doctor right away if you might be pregnant.
Also, if you ever notice discharge from one or both breasts, call your doctor right away.
What Can I Do to Relieve the Ache?
Most PMS symptoms, including breast soreness, should disappear as your period begins. Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen, might be helpful. Wearing a supportive bra might also help.
Healthy eating, regular exercise, and getting enough sleep are really your best bets for lessening the ache. You might try cutting down on salty foods and foods that contain caffeine, like coffee, tea, and even chocolate. Try caffeine-free soda or herbal tea instead. Some girls find that eating a diet rich in calcium helps with PMS symptoms.
If you're tired, take a rest! Snuggle on the couch with your pillow and watch a good movie. Sometimes getting your mind off your aches is the best thing you can do.
What if I'm Still Worried?
Sometimes these tips won't help you feel better. Maybe the pain is a little sharper this time, or maybe it lasted longer than usual, or maybe you just want to get it checked out. You don't need to sit at home and worry — visit your doctor.
Let your doctor know about your concerns. The doctor sees patients all the time for things that may seem silly, but if you're worried, then it's not dumb. Although you may feel a little embarrassed to ask about breast pain or about a lump, there's no need to. A breast exam is a quick and painless procedure. Besides, it's a small price to pay for a doctor's assurance that your aches are completely normal.

Bobcats hold off hard charging Russets 70-64
REXBURG- The top seeded Madison Bobcats built a double digit lead and then held off a hard charging Shelley Russet squad 70-64 during semi-final action at Madison High School on Thursday evening.
Early on it looked as if the entire game was going to be a nip-tuck affair as the squads traded blows during a highly entertaining first quarter.
Back-to-back treys by T.J. Stommell gave the Russets their only lead of the night at 1:55 of the first quarter but w combination of turnovers and cold shooting sent the Bobcats on a 13-0 run over the next six and a half minutes of game time, leading to a 25-13 advantage.
"In a league and an environment that is this tough to play in you absolutely have to value every possession," Shelley head coach Dave Hadley said. "We took too many I'll advised shots. Set poor screens which led to more difficult shots than we would like to get and then on the defensive end we gave up too many offensive rebounds."
Despite the Russets struggles, Shelley was able to mount a late half rally, keyed by treys from McKay Cannon and Christian Cather and heading to the locker room Shelley trailed by just 7 at 30-23.
Momentum garnered from that late push fizzled to start the third however as Madison sprinted to a fifteen point advantage before many fans had returned to their seats from the concession stand.
Again Shelley was asked to mount a charge, no small feat in Madison's gym but they did, eventually pulling to 68-64 with just under thirty seconds to play.
That was as close as they could get however as Madison connected on a pair of free throws to seal the win.
"As a coach you wonder why you have to get down by fifteen before you decide to start to play," Coach Hadley said. "From here on out we will have to sell out on every possession. To be a champion you have to do the little things and we will have to do all the little things from here on out if we want to get where we want to be."
Shelley will host Blackfoot on Saturday night at 7:00 in a loser out affair.
Shelley (64) - T.J. Stommel 9, Chad Leckington 7, Will Higham 3, Christian Cather 7, Kaden Michaelson 13, McKay Cannon 19, Christian Mendoza 6. FG: 20. FT: 16/23. 3-pointers (Stommel 3, Leckington, Cather 2, Cannon 2). Fouls: 16. Fouled out: (none).
Madison (70) - Kash Merrill 15, Spencer Williams 13, Brady Layton 2, Lyle Sutton 4, Ryker Pierce 19, Jakob Wilson 17. FG: 25. FT: 18/26. 3-pointers (Merrill 2). Fouls: 17. Fouled out: (none).

David Beckham and his representatives are said to be in talks with several companies about developing a Beckham-branded men's underwear line, according to industry sources.
The names of the companies could not be learned but the line would be launched for fall 2010.
Beckham has decided not to renew his contract with Emporio Armani Underwear, where he has featured in the brand's global advertising and marketing for the last two years. That deal expires later this year. With Beckham in the Emporio Armani Underwear ads, the brand's sales more than doubled last year to over $30 million, sources said.

The 2014 Land Rover Discovery will make its public debut at the Frankfurt motor show next week. The updated model gets a cosmetic makeover, improved fuel economy and CO2 emissions, new driver assistance features and upgraded audio systems.
The Discovery's exterior changes are subtle, but a front bumper, headlights and grille give it an updated look. There are also new alloy wheel designs, while the optional "Black Design Pack" – which includes extra black trim and black alloy wheels remains an option.
One of the most significant changes is new badging – "Discovery" replaces "Land Rover" on the car's bonnet, while the engine badging moves from the tailgate to panels mounted on the front doors.
Changes to the Discovery's 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine have reduced CO2 emissions from 230g/km to 213g/km, while EU Combined fuel economy has been boosted by 3.2mpg to 35.3mpg.
New driver assistance features include Wade Sensing, Reverse Traffic Detection and Closing Vehicle Sensing. New Meridian stereo systems are available as options.
More details of the 2014 Land Rover Discovery will be revealed at the Frankfurt motor show on September 10. The updated model is available to order now, with first deliveries from mid-November.

12V LED bulb with capless style fitting and square base LED
Light ouput is the equivalent of about 3-4W
If these bulbs are fitted to a 3V circuit they will produce a yellow light instead of bright white.
If you do not have a voltmeter and are fitting these bulbs as replacements in the angel eye headlamps - first check the back of the lamp housing to see if the wires to the bulb run through a rectangular box (resistor) glued to the housing.
If a resistor is built into the wiring then you need a 3V bulb. If there is no resistor you need a 12V bulb.Part No: LEDBULB1

STILLPOINT Archive: last updated 04/22/2013
by Jo Kadlecek
Michael Monroe (music) was no stranger to the Internet as an instructional tool or to social media to enhance his scholarship. He was an early believer in the power of technology, and found time between piano instruction and theatre productions to familiarize himself with existing programs. He began following music critics and other educators on Twitter and was one of Gordon's first professors to blog regularly about his work. Still, he knew he wasn't fully harnessing technology's power for his Music History or Arts in Concert classes. So he began to tinker. He taught himself how to write software to blend musical scores with audio performances. When he posted them online, he quickly began to see how effective they could be for students.
"Not long ago, it was incredibly cumbersome to project a score for students to see in class while they tried to follow along, then cue up the tape and start again," Monroe said. "Now this integrated technology allows me to talk about the score without the distractions, circling things in red as we go through the piece in class and listen at the same time."
Monroe has created eight online listening guides—which he calls Musical Manipulatives—for classics including Beethoven's Fifth Symphony in C Major and Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto. Each includes his "three-dimensional" approach: Monroe synchronizes the audio with the score, and also with his notes about each movement. In class or their dorm rooms, students can access the links, click on any of the themes, and hear the music as they're reading Monroe's instruction while also following the score.
"The goal is to help students, when thinking of a big piece of music, to have a bird's eye view of it—understanding how the structure unfolds—all while they're involved in the piece," said Monroe. He plans to explore the implications of such technology on his sabbatical next fall.
Take the technology for a test drive online >>

What an incredible line! I wonder if Ross ab-libbed that one. Very funny, it sure sounds like something he would say. Your turn niecie and I'll try to guess on yours.
