Za'atar is a generic name for a family of related Middle Eastern herbs from the genera Origanum (oregano), Calamintha (basil thyme), Thymus (typically Thymus vulgaris, i.e., thyme), and Satureja.
The name za'atar alone most properly applies to Origanum syriacum, considered by many to be the hyssop of the Bible.
It is also the name for a condiment made from the dried herbs, mixed with sesame seeds, dried sumac, and often salt, as well as other spices. Used in Arab cuisine, both the herb and spice mixture are popular throughout the Middle East, commonly eaten with pita, which is dipped in olive oil and then za'atar.
It was bound to happen! Our friends at Monocle will open its first London café at 18 Chiltern Street, Marylebone, on Monday 15 April. The new venture for the media brand follows the success of the Monocle Café in Tokyo, which opened in October 2011 in the Hankyu Men's department store in Chiyoda-ku. The London café will reflect the style of the Tokyo café but will offer a unique experience for Monocle's subscribers, readers and coffee-loving visitors.
Wagashi are traditional Japanese confections that evolved into an art form in the ancient Imperial capital, Kyoto. Though we often attribute desserts with taste and smell, these Japanese morcels are an invitatation to engage all five senses.
Eric Arthur Blair (25 June 1903 – 21 January 1950), better known by his pen name George Orwell, was an English author and journalist. His work is marked by keen intelligence and wit, a profound awareness of social injustice, an intense, revolutionary opposition to totalitarianism, a passion for clarity in language and a belief in democratic socialism.
Orwell enjoyed live and was a heavy smoker, rolling his own cigarettes from strong shag tobacco and his love of strong tea was legendary. In 1946 he published "A Nice Cup of Tea" on how to make it.

This can only happen in Japan: a serene place all dedicated to fruitcakes. The Berry Cafe located in Ginza is designed all in subtle black, yet the prices are not as high as the place might non-verbally communicate. Their only products are tarts and cakes decorated with the finest mangos, berries, watermelon, peaches, figs and lemon ginger all piled up in a style that might startle the European eye and even their taste buds. Of course you are not obliged to order a complete tart for yourself; you can order slices with prices ranging from 650 to 950 Yen. One can find the flagship cafe in Aoyama (Tokyo), with other branches in Nagoya (Aichi), Chiba City, Funabashi (Chiba), Hiroshima City, Nishinomiya (Hyogo), Kyoto City and Osaka City.

SOURCE: Gopher Protocol, Inc.
October 19, 2016 08:00 ET
SANTA MONICA, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 19, 2016) - Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher" and the "Company"), a development-stage company which specializes in the development of real-time, heuristic-based mobile technologies, and its partner, Guardian Patch LLC ("Guardian"), announced today that they are in the process of creating their initial 50 Guardian Sphere devices, which, if completed, will be tested in the U.S. as complete systems. As previously announced on September 21st, the Company and Guardian are currently ramping-up their efforts for the release of their Guardian Sphere tracking device, of which there is no guarantee, which is primarily designed for pets, but may also be used for tracking children, adults, including the disabled, inventory, artwork or virtually any object located within an area covered by the device.
The Guardian Sphere (the "Sphere") system is a derivative technology of the Company's Guardian Patch technology. The Sphere is designed to provide its users with local tracking capability using a re-chargeable/replaceable battery source. The objective of the Company's current efforts, which the Company hopes to achieve, is to deliver for testing in a pre-designated area 50 Guardian pet devices along with a base station, test results and eventual manufacturing capability for both the mobile and the base unit.
The Sphere is an innovative tracking device that can easily be attached to a pet's collar and then transmit real-time location information to the smartphone(s) or website account of the registered owner of the device. The Sphere has a replaceable battery and operates on the exclusive Guardian private network, which provides owners with the unique ability to obtain real-time tracking information without the need for GPS, Wi-Fi or cellular service. The Sphere includes state of the art radio technology, a GPS system and micro controller systems, with a potential "back-up" Bluetooth unit. The Sphere sends signals in specific intervals to report on its location. The Sphere's system analyzes the information using its proprietary, advanced mathematical modeling software that precisely calculates the Sphere's location. The Sphere's mobile application then presents the exact location of the Sphere on the map. An additional unique system feature is the Sphere's Emergency Alert system. Users of the Sphere have the ability to transmit emergency alerts directly from their mobile apps, which transmit their Sphere locations. All registered users located in such a Sphere's proximity will be notified about the Emergency and may notify the user about the Sphere's recovery (which we fondly refer to as a "private emergency alert").
The Sphere utilizes a bi-directional system which enables data transmission/receiving acknowledgment. It also includes error correction protocol to ensure data accuracy. The Sphere has its own battery source and may be plugged into external power using a standard Android type charger socket. The Sphere also comes with its own ID. This ID is registered on the mobile app to track the Sphere's location. Multiple Spheres can be registered on the same app for multiple tracking.
"The actual creation of our initial 50 Spheres along with their suggested final design is extremely exciting. These 50 Spheres will be tested as a complete system in San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco. We believe tests will be initiated by mid-November. Our goal in developing the Sphere is to provide pet owners with peace of mind through the use an invaluable recovery tool which could enable them to track their pets in real-time should they ever become separated," stated Company CTO, Dr. Danny Rittman.
At the time of this press release, the Company has not specified a sale release date for the Sphere. The Company is committed to providing more definitive release date information in the coming weeks and is targeting a release date of approximately Q1 2017, of which there is no guarantee.
About Guardian Patch
The Guardian Patch (the "Patch"), potentially arriving in consumer markets in 2017, is a unique location technology that works with or without GPS. The Patch is a "stick-on" device that provides its users with the capability to protect and track objects, a loved-one or even a pet, through a mobile application. Download the Patch app, register your patch, and track anything that you own on your mobile device or on our designated website. Register the Patches of your family members and friends to receive alerts in the event of an emergency. Peel the Patch off and the Patch acts as a beacon, sending out a signal and notifying anyone who has registered the user's Patch.
About Gopher Protocol Inc.
Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher" and the "Company") (http://gopherprotocol.com/) is a development-stage company developing a real-time, heuristic-based mobile technology. Upon development, the technology will consist of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that will run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network. Gopher believes this will be the first system that is developed using a human, heuristic-based analysis engine. Since the core of the system will be its advanced microchip technology that will be capable of being installed in any mobile device worldwide, Gopher expects that this will result in an internal, private network between all mobile devices utilizing the microchip by providing mobile technology for computing power enhancement, advanced mobile database management/sharing and other additional mobile features.

It's disconcerting, but the truth is that items that reflect poorly on you or your company can come from anywhere: disgruntled customers, former employees, even – quite inadvertently – yourself. You would be wise to assume that anyone on the verge of doing business with you will Google your name and/or the name of your company. Do you know what comes up for you in a Google search?
I'm very pleased to say that nothing embarrassing comes up for me or my company in the first three pages of a Google search. I couldn't always say that; it wasn't my fault that I shared my name with a former Playboy centerfold (who seems to have since changed the spelling of her name). But that case of mistaken identity is trivial in comparison to what comes up in Google for some of the best-known companies and brands online.
Let's take a look at some of these brands. Search for Coca Cola in Google and the fifth link on the first page leads to "Killer Coke," a site that cites "undisputed reports" that the company's bottling plant managers in Colombia encouraged murder. Search for McDonald's, and the fourth link from the top leads to "McSpotlight," a site that talks about "McDonald's exploitation of animals, people and the environment." A search for Martha Stewart Living is almost funny in comparison; the first page offers a link to a parody site where the decorating diva supposedly offers tips for living behind bars.
If the big companies run into problems getting it right, you can bet that your online reputation may not be totally spotless either. And you're not alone; businesses have sprung up specifically to alert their customers when something negative is published about them online, and to fix these reputation issues. Reputation Defender is an example of such a company; there are others.
Short of hiring someone to watch it for you, what can you do to manage and improve your online reputation? In this article, I'm going to talk about some of the positive steps you can take, regardless of whether you're starting with a completely clean slate. In my next article, I hope to cover what you can do if and when the negative press gets out of hand.
{mospagebreak title=Monitoring Your Reputation}
The first thing you should keep in mind is that this isn't really a new problem, it's just moved to a new media. The earliest reference I could find to online reputation management after some quick research with Google dates to 2003, and compares it to the political phrase "spin control." Now, the phrase "online reputation management," without quotes, returns 806,000 hits in Google. And it's no wonder. With so many people participating online on social sites, web forums, blogs, and in many other places, a flood of user-generated content could damage your company. But you can't always see the tide.
Fortunately, there are tools that can help you find out how you're viewed online. I've already mentioned checking the search engines. Many people put their names or the names of their companies into the search engines to see what comes up. You can actually set up alerts with the major search engines to send you a notification whenever certain terms get a new mention in their indexes. You'll want to set up alerts for your own name, your company name and the names of any recognized members of your staff (you can bet the PR folks at Apple have alerts in for more than just Steve Jobs!). You may also want alerts for at least some of your products.
You will probably want to set up similar alerts with blog search engines. Feedster and Technorati are good places to start. Yahoo and Google also have blog search engines.
If there are sites or portals that are specific to your industry, you'll want to check those at least once a month. SEOs, for example, would want to run searches on Search Engine Watch, Search Engine Land, and perhaps one or two other sites. Since you should be trying to keep up with the latest information in your field anyway, this may not be too onerous.
So what should you do if and when you encounter some negative press? I'll be covering that in my next article. For the rest of this article, I'll cover some of the things you can do to help you build up some positive momentum and publicity online.
One thing that you should NOT do, however, is panic. In late August last year, Search Engine Lowdown ran a post which talked about the response of some Shaolin monks demanding an apology from a Japanese "ninja" who claimed online to have beaten all of them in unarmed combat. It's clear that the monks wanted to be taken seriously; on the other hand, hiring a lawyer to fight someone who has said something that no sane person would take seriously is probably not the way to accomplish this goal. The author of the blog entry on Search Engine Lowdown remarked that he couldn't help laughing at the idea "of a bunch of monks sitting behind their lawyer's table in a crowded courtroom."
{mospagebreak title=Getting Seen in the Right Places}
Rob Garner wrote a piece for Media Post Publications that gives 17 tips to help you improve your online reputation. For the purposes of this article, we're going to assume you're starting from a blank slate. You might well have heard of some of these resources before; if you're already using them, give yourself points for being in touch with these issues already. None of it will happen without some work on your part, of course, but then again, building a reputation offline isn't easy; why should building one online be any different?
Let's start with the social sites. Nothing says getting down to business like a good LinkedIn profile. Don't follow my own example; at this writing, I still haven't gotten around to doing the appropriate work. You want to build a real page, with real connections, that gives anyone looking at your profile a good sense of who you are, what you're about, and what you're after. I hope to cover ways in which you can use SEO on your LinkedIn profile in a future article.
Likewise, you'll want to create profiles on other social media sites, like MySpace and Flickr. You might want to consider Facebook as well. Just keep in mind that whatever you post on those sites may come back to haunt you, so think before you upload. Also, be mindful of copyright and the site's Terms of Service; content entered into Flickr, for instance, is covered under a Creative Commons license.
Start a blog. Garner recommends using WordPress. In fact, he recommends starting a blog on WordPress, and starting a WordPress blog on your own domain (you DO have a domain, right?). Expect to devote some serious time and effort to this blog. Make it real; put content into it that readers will enjoy and find useful. You're not going to get a good reputation if you put out bad content. Speaking of which, that's another point that Garner makes: "Avoid putting out any material that you wouldn't want in your primary namespace. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
{mospagebreak title=Content, Content, Content}
I'll assume you already have a domain. You want to make sure that you add useful and unique content to it regularly. Search engines love content. Keep writing useful content for your visitors and you'll be on your way to establishing yourself and/or your company as an expert in your field of endeavor. Once you build a reputation as an expert, other blogs may start linking to you; they may even ask to interview you. That's the kind of good publicity you can't buy. It's also the kind of publicity that will help get you to the top of the search engine results pages.
You can play this angle in several ways. For example, you can do research to find out which bloggers cover your field. Send them a polite email with a press release. If they use it, you can send them more. Don't flood them with press releases; space them out over time. And make sure the news you're sending them really is something they'd want to write about. I still remember reading a post from one blogger who wrote about receiving an "urgent" press release with "exciting" news – the company sending it had just changed their logo! The blogger's response: big deal; send me something that would be important to me and my readers.
Another way you can play the content angle is to seek out someone to interview you about your field, your favorite hobby, or your favorite passion. After the interview, get a copy and publish it on your web site. If you were interviewed by someone in the media for a particular publication, make sure you have permission to publish it first! Worst case, you can usually link to the interview. But even someone who does a blog for love rather than money may be able to do a creditable interview and not mind at all if you post it on your site. Free publicity can work both ways in that case.
Remember that text is not the only form of content these days. Images and video also attract a fair share of visitors, especially when they're properly optimized so that the search engines will see the important related keywords. Don't bore your visitors. As with your text-based content, keep it useful; funny and entertaining are also important with video. Short and funny is much better than long and boring.
That's about all I have room for this time. In my next article on online reputation management, I'll talk about what to do if and when you do encounter negative comments about you and/or your company online.

That's Why I Say…Hey Man Nice Shot: Plaxico Released By Giants
Posted By NFLSportChannel On April 3, 2009 @ 4:10 pm In News | No Comments
I know it's not good to relish in the losses of others, but the NFC East is no place for thin skin. When something bad happens to the Giants, Eagles, or Redskins, that means something good just happened for the Dallas Cowboys.
After four seasons and a Superbowl XLII championship, Plaxico Burress has been released by the New York Giants.
Burress is facing an uphill legal battle involving criminal charges that have stemmed from an incident last November in which the maligned wideout shot himself in the leg at a Manhattan night club.
In his tenure with the Giants, Plax became the team's 12th all time leading receiver with 344 snags. Burress compiled 3,681 receiving yards and caught 33 touchdowns in that span.
The Giants had expressed interest in keeping Burress on the roster pending a ruling in his case. If Burress is found guilty he faces mandatory prison time under New York state law.
This release may fuel speculation that Plaxico will indeed be serving a substantial amount of time in prison very soon.
Burress is due in court on June 8th.
Fom a Cowboy fan's perspective, this is great news. Because, on occassion, Plaxico Burress has killed the the Dallas secondary.
The first game that comes to mind has to be opeing week of the 2007 season. Plax had his way with the Cowboys' defensive backs to the tune of 8 catches for 144 yards and three touchdowns.
At one point, maybe when the Giant's wideout running down the field on his way to a 60-yard touchdown, I began to see the Cowboys season flash before my eyes.
Thankfully the Cowboys rebounded and pulled out the battle 45-35 . Of course Plaxico and the Giants won the ""war" with a win at Texas Stadium in the 2007 NFC Divisional round.
But that week-one barn burner would go down Plaxico's best statistical game against the Cowboys as a Giant. Over his eight games against the 'Boys, Burress recorded 33 grabs for 446 yards and five touchdowns.
The NFC East has now lost two great wide recievers. Plaxico Burress and Terrell Owens have moved on. It will be interesting to see how the Cowboys and Giants, more notably Romo and Manning, can adjust to the loss of two stellar playmakers.
The number one priority for New York has to involve finding another option for Eli Manning. This move will have a profound impact on the NFC East if the Giants are unable to find a suitable replacement for Plaxico.
Last year the New York finished the season with a record of 12-4. However, the teams record was much better with Burress in the lineup than it was without his services.
With Plaxico in the lineup, the Giants were a nearly unbeatable 8-1. In games without Eli's favorite target, the team was a mediocre 4-3.
I wonder if Torry Holt has checked his cell phone for messages lately?

Times Pop Music/Culture Critic
The first Record Store Day, in 2008, was a bit of a mystery. What was this day? And could it help reverse the trend of record shops dying nationwide?
"It was a time where the role of the record store was precarious," said Mojo Books and Records co-owner Melanie Cade, whose store, at the time, had been open less than a year. "Everybody was a little unsure whether record stores would be around in a few years."
What a difference a decade makes. Record Store Day, which celebrates its 10th edition Saturday with another glut of new, limited and exclusive vinyl releases, is going stronger than ever — "It's like Christmas," Cade said. And so is Mojo, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary that same day.
"It's like a big great party, a special thing that you can do with your customers and the local music community," Cade said. "It's a celebration of record store culture."
A dozen local record shops will celebrate Record Store Day with giveaways, live music, free beer and much more. Some tips before you go:
• Spend a few minutes perusing "The List" at RecordStoreDay.com — it's a rundown of every new, limited and exclusive release dropping on Saturday. This will help narrow your search — and in some cases will be necessary to get the titles you want as soon as doors open.
• Call your local record store to check their RSD inventory if you must, but remember that stores don't know they're getting until their open and sort their shipments, and sometimes that doesn't happen until Friday. Some stores also post their inventories on Facebook.
• As any record store employee will tell you, remember that Record Store Day isn't just about rare and exclusive titles. They'll be happy if you buy any vinyl album, new or used.
Here's what local shops are doing (or in a couple of cases, aren't doing) for Record Store Day.
Mojo Books and Records: There will be drawings, discounts, giveaways to the first people in line, a vegan bake sale and free PBR after 3 p.m., and music starting at 3:30 p.m. from DieAlps!, Luxury Mane, Jensen Serf Company, Permanent Makeup and more. 8 a.m. to 11:45 p.m. 2540 E Fowler Ave., Tampa. (813) 971-9717, mojotampa.com.
Daddy Kool Records: Look for storewide and sidewalk sales, limited eiditon T-shirts, a pop-up vendors' market, concert ticket giveaways, free beer from New Belgium and more. 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. 666 Central Ave., St. Petersburg. (727) 822-5665, daddykoolrecords.com.
The Sound Exchange: Another anniversary celebration, as the Sound Exchange celebrates 30 years in business at its three Tampa Bay locations: Tampa (14246 N Nebraska Ave., (813) 978-9316), Brandon (805 W Bloomingdale Ave., (813) 651-9316) and Pinellas Park (7688 49th St. N, (727) 545-0042). Look for giveaways, discounts and more. Brandon shoppers can get 10 percent off their bill at the Stein and Vine next door. All shops open at 9 a.m. soundexchangetampabay.com.
Planet Retro: In its new location, Planet Retro will once again host a full day of music, with bands like DieAlps!, Car Bomb Driver and Radarmen starting at 8 a.m. There will be kegs of free beer, and donations accepted to benefit Girls Rock Camp St. Pete. 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. 226 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. St. N, St. Petersburg. (727) 218-7434, planetretrorecords.com.
Bananas Music: The massive vinyl clearinghouse will host live bands including the Vultures, Reality Asylum and Zerobabies. There will also be free Coppertail beer, giveaways and grab bags, and more. 2887 22nd Ave. N, St. Petersburg. (727) 327-4616, musicfinder.com.
Microgroove: More music all day at this Seminole Heights hangout, with Ninehorn, Awkward Age, Dave Decker and more starting around noon.

Steelworker Records: In addition to RSD titles, the store has ordered about 350 imports from labels around the world specifically for Record Store Day, as well as a large collection they've been sorting and holding for the occasion. Noon to 7 p.m. 708 W Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., Tampa. (813) 666-4933, steelworkerrecords.com.
Kingfish Records: One of the more far-flung RSD sites in Tampa Bay is Kingfish, located inside the Oldsmar Flea Market. They've been participating for six years, and will have giveaway T-shirts, CDs, pins, posters and more, with several giveaways and in-store discounts. 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. On the main breezeway at Aisle F of the Oldsmar Flea Market, 180 N Race Track Road, Oldsmar.

(727) 423-4108, dunedinrecords.com.
Vinyl Countdown/Gulfport Records: Once again, Record Store's official website lists the Vinyl Countdown (facebook.com/thevinylcountdown) as a participating store. Once again, they are not. The punk-leaning shop has steadfastly refused RSD's increasing major-label participation, arguing on their website that "we didn't want to invest in records that would turn our customers off." So don't come here looking RSD exclusives. Do come here for their well-curated collection of punk and metal. As for Gulfport Records? It, too, is listed on RSD's site, but it's out of business.
Park Ave CDs: This one's on the far side of Orlando, but it might be worth the drive. The shop will host an in-store autograph signing and meet-and-greet with Sublime With Rome, whose Unreleased Demos 2017 12-inch is a Record Store Day exclusive. Wristbands are required and limited; the band is scheduled to appear from noon to 2 p.m. The store itself will be open 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. 2916 Corrine Drive, Orlando. (407) 447-7275. parkavecds.com.

I have never encountered a problem ordering new prescriptions or refilling them online but I knew the minute I completed this particular order and they charged my card immediately (with no warning - before "physician" approval) something was fishy.
I'm sure I got ripped-off, which isn't anyones fault but my own really since I was careless in this case. Other than feeling really stupid , thats not the problem. What I received in the mail was round, white tablets with blue / lt. blue specks - they are scored in the middle on one side and flat on the other. Other than the score mark there are no text/identifiers on the pills. What I ordered was phentermine 37.5 - I've done this multiple times in the past (along with alot of people I know) and I've never seen any that look like this (I'm pretty familiar with phentermine)!
I've checked every pill for anything inconsistent - can't find anything. They are all pretty much the same.
If anyone has seen this pill before or could actually ID it for me - I would really appreciate it!

3 cM multiple matches
You probably have been told to disregard anything under 7cM because it may be a false positive. Then again you may be depriving yourself of and entire line on your tree. My father's line was German/Polish and Russian and he knew nothing of his line. I was only able to trace his father to Marianow, Russia and eventually found out about his father (my g-grandfather, abt 1860's). I and many family members did dna testing probably 3 yrs ago now and it amazed me but most of my matches were on my paternal line. Fortunately, I have been doing my own genealogy for over 35 years and have substantial documentation. I ended up having one match >8cM's and on the same segment, multiple 3-5cM matches. It seems that the 3cM matches had extremely good documentation and 1 couple matched her tree and was then able to help me get back to the early 1700's and sometimes earlier. The stories they were able to tell me were troubling but fantastic about the hardships their families and ultimately my ancestors had to bear. Most of my matches actually are at smaller levels (apparently since where I match is back > then the 6th generation) and if I can ever find out how to utilize the x chromosome, my mtdna and my cousins y-dna it should open a wealth of information. Good luck to everyone!
False matches
Most matches of 3 cM are still false, even if you find shared ancestors.
If you and the other person were each able to test both parents you would find that the majority of 3 cM segments shared by between you and the other person were not inherited from your parents: they're just an artefact of the DNA analysis which can't distinguish between maternal and paternal DNA.
A few small segments would survive that process i.e. you'd find that the same segment was also shared by one of your parents and one of the other person's parents. You might even find that both of your parents have that segment, which immediately flags it up as being a segment which is just very common and not likely to indicate a relationship in a genealogical timeframe.
Even if you assume that small segments are real, they're generally not a reliable indicator of a relationship. I've tested to of my siblings as well as myself. Three known cousins, who are each other's siblings, have also been tested. When you test three or more siblings it's possible to work out which segments of DNA were inherited from which of the four grandparents and create a "chromosome map". I've done this for my family and for my cousins.
The cousins and I are related via our respective paternal grandfathers (their grandfather was my great-grandfather's brother).
Comparing myself to one of these cousins, checking small segments against our "chromosome maps", I can see that the majority of segments are on parts of chromosomes where one or both of us did not inherit DNA from our paternal grandfathers. That means that the majority can't be in any way related to the known shared ancestry. They are either totally false matches, or they indicate multiple lines of very distant relationships which we don't know about.
Taking the few remaining small segments which fall in areas where my cousin and I do both have DNA from our paternal grandfathers:
a) If I had the inclination to research more thoroughly by comparing my siblings and the other two cousins, some would be proved to be totally false matches. Many others would turn out not to be from the paternal grandfathers (just because the cousin and I both have our paternal grandfathers' DNA at that point doesn't mean that the shared segment isn't from our maternal DNA).
b) My map is limited to my grandparents' level. Anywhere I have my paternal grandfather's DNA, there's a 50:50 chance of it being his mother's DNA which is not my link to my cousin.
Similarly, my cousin's map is limited to her grandparents' level. Anything marked as coming from her paternal grandfather could be from either one of his parents (my great-great-grandparents). If my grandfather did pass on his father's DNA rather than his mother's, it could be from either one of my great-grandfather's parents, with a 50:50 chance of it being the opposite shared ancestor. So, even if my cousin and do I both have DNA from our respective paternal grandfathers (who were our link to each other) there's a high chance that the DNA didn't come from the same ancestor and any shared segment is either false or coincidental.
Over all, out of thirty seven segments of 3-7 cM which I apparently share with this cousin, just one (4.9 cM) has been confirmed.

Over the past couple of years we have seen an increase in donations, which has enabled us to develop our Support Network thus far, and we would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to raise funds for us. As one of our volunteers wrote in a recent guest post, every little bit helps and it doesn't take much to make a real difference, if everyone gets involved!
But we know it can be difficult sometimes to know just how you can help. What can you do that will make a difference? How can you fit it in around increasingly busy lives, around work and family commitments, and during a time when many people are struggling to make ends meet themselves?
Well, the answer is that there is a lot you can do. And most of it is really easy too. We've compiled a list of some of our favourites, which we hope get you started!
So how can you help?
- Consider setting up a monthly donation to PSS via direct debit. You can do this easily via Virgin Give Money. It does not have to be much – just £3 per month (the cost of a cup of coffee and a cake) will go a long way! In fact since we discussed this at our annual conference earlier this month, PSS has increased its monthly donations by £45 thanks to a handful of delegates setting up monthly donations.
- When shopping online, try and use systems such as Easy Fundraising and Give as You Live . These systems are so easy to use and do not cost you a penny! You simply sign up, choose PSS as your charity, and download a little widget. Every time you shop online at a participating store (you'll be surprised at how many stores are involved in this), it will ask you if you wish to turn donations on… if you click yes, the store will donate a percentage of your total spend with them to PSS. This percentage varies between stores, most give around 1.5-2% but some give up to a staggering 8-15% and all at no extra cost to you!
- If you attend any local groups, or know of any independent local businesses, ask if they would be willing to have a donation pot for PSS. This means that when people visit and see the pot they may consider giving some of their spare change to charity. A local maternity clinic or ward may also consider having a donation pot.
- If you work, find out whether your employer would allow you to hold a fundraising event for PSS. Earlier this month we received over £600 from Home Loan Management in Skipton that was raised during such a fundraising drive. Many employers will also consider "match funding", which means they will match whatever you raise, thereby doubling your donation. Large organisations such as supermarkets also often have fundraising initiatives that their employees can take part in, so it is always worth checking with your employer if there are opportunities available.
- Consider getting the whole family involved in some form of sponsorship. We've had supporters complete sponsored runs and walks, but we haven't really seen many HG survivors (as in the children) taking part. People are often very generous when children decide to do a sponsored activity for charity, and so you could do a sponsored toddle with preschool aged children (perhaps with a local parents group) or a sponsored bike ride with older children who have just learned to ride unaided. We even know of someone whose 4 year old did his own "mini triathlon" last year for Sports Relief.
- Make the most of seasonal events… Christmas is coming up and that can be a great opportunity for fundraising ideas. You could hold a craft stall with Christmas gifts. Or if you don't want to send Christmas cards this year, why not donate the money you would have spent on them to PSS – quite a few people choose to do this, it seems. Another fantastic idea was suggested at the conference by one of our delegates – why not set up a stand somewhere and offer to wrap Christmas presents for people in return for donations. It's easy to come by cheap (or free) wrapping supplies – a lot of people have some leftovers they would be willing to donate or shops may donate some for a good cause. And with increasingly busy lives, a lot of people would happily pay a donation to get their gifts wrapped for them, saving them time in the run up to Christmas. Finding a place to do this may be difficult, but a local church hall or a drop off and pick up point at your child's school or nursery may be an option too.
This list is far from exhaustive and there are plenty more ideas out there that you could use to fundraise for us. Why not see what other people are doing and see if it's something you'd like to try too?
As we've said before, every little bit really does help and we are grateful for each and every donation, no matter how small. And if you're planning a fundraising event, do let us know, as we can showcase it here on the blog for you.
Happy Fundraising!

Nicki Minaj's older brother has reportedly been charged with raping a 12-year-old.
According to US reports, the rapper's 37-year-old sibling, Jelani Minaj, was charged on Long Island and was freed from Nassau County jail this week after bail was set at $100,000.
Details of the alleged offence have not yet been released, including the date he is accused of raping the youngster.
Superstar Nicki, 32, was in attendance at her brother's wedding to fiancée Jacqueline Robinson just three months ago at the Coral House in Baldwin, New York.
She spent out about $30,000 for his wedding and left $11,000 Emilio Pucca dress at the venue after choosing a red designer gown.
The endowed super star shared a touching photograph of her with the groom and wrote on Instagram: "I would cross the ocean for u. I would go & bring u the moon. Promise u. For u I will. I love my brother so much man.
"Can't believe I cried during his wedding and his first dance like a punk. May God bless him and his union. Tonight has been one of my favorite nights of all time. I do anything to see my brothers smile."
Minaj is yet to comment on her brother being charged.

Do You Have These Red Spots On Various Parts Of Your Body? Should You Worry? What Should You Do?
All of us have been puzzled by certain skin growths at some point in our lives. These can be harmless, but they could also point to something more serious.
Take for instance moles. Moles are harmless skin blemishes that most of us have since birth. But, there is another type of skin marks – red ones, which are not as typical as moles are. These commonly appear in people over 40, although the possibility of their appearance during adolescence and childhood is not excluded either.
What causes most concern about this type of skin marks is their color, which is why people often call them "ruby points." Although these marks can be removed surgically, the question remains why they actually appear.
As explained by dermatologists, red spots on the skin are in fact small capillary dilations, which occur as a result of vascular system malfunction. They normally appear in the arms and chest, either scattered around the skin, or concentrated on one small area, in which case they could also be small benign tumors.
Should you worry about the red spots on your skin? Is there a way to remove them?
First of all, there's no need to worry as these skin growths are completely benign. They do pose an aesthetic issue, especially for women, and can easily be removed surgically or with the help of natural treatments.
If you find the article useful, feel free to share it with your family and friends. Thank you and have a good day!

(Stockport, UK)
Buster was a boxer with all the best boxer traits. He was loyal protective, funny and highly intelligent. The day before he died was just a normal day. We went for our normal walks and he ate his food with his normal enthusiasm. At half past five in the morning, the cat woke me to go out. That wasn't unusual but instead of scratching annoyingly at the base of the bed like normal he came in the bedroom yelling at me.
I got out of bed and went downstairs. I passed busters basket and could see it was empty. Perhaps he was upstairs on the landing asleep and I hadn't noticed him? But no …there he was , stretched out at the back door and he was dead. I can't tell you the shock that overtook me. I was heartbroken.
I know other dog owners would probably say the same but he was the best. Never could a dog be loved more than him. Nothing seems right anymore. The house is so quiet and feels incredibly empty. He isn't there to greet me or to hug me. We all miss him so much I sometimes feel the loss is unbearable.
I am grateful he didn't suffer and that I never had to make that painful decision of when to have him put to sleep but I grieve for me. My loss. My pain. We enjoyed his company for ten blissful years. The children grew up with him. He joined in their games and protected us all. I miss his different barks. There was his woo-woo bark when the back gate opened and his gentle woof when he wanted something. And who could not love that boxer snort when he was being playful or his Chewbacca impression that made us all laugh? And there was also his fearsome bark to ward off intruders or threats to keep us all safe.
He truly was the best dog in the world.

You walk through the supermarket one aisle at a time. These days more and more aisles are popping up. I don't know if it is just me, but grocery stores are getting bigger and bigger. These bigger stores mean more products on the shelves and even more options to chose from before checking out. Understanding how to shop at a grocery store and what is really contained in the foods we eat is very important. Often times it is best to stop and read the label before adding a product to your cart. Customers look at the labels for different reasons. Whether it is an allergen, avoidance to a certain ingredient because of taste or just to simply see what is inside the product they are about to eat. But do you know how to look at a label and truly understand what it means?

I got my annual "Your Social Security Statement" in the mail today. This is the letter that estimates my benefits if I were to start collecting at age 62, age 67, and age 70. It also comes with a caveat:
Your estimated benefits are based on current law. Congress has made changes to the law in the past and can do so at any time. The law governing benefits may change because, by 2041, the payroll taxes will be enough to pay only about 78 percent of scheduled benefits.

The Baltimore Blast traveled to Kansas City on Sunday evening for a matchup against the rival Comets. In the only regular season matchup of the season the Comets were victorious 5-1.
In the first quarter both teams focused on defensive play and controlling possession. Blast goalkeeper, William Vanzela, who recorded a shutout on Saturday night recorded 3 saves in the quarter and kept the Comets scoreless. At the end of the first the game was tied 0-0.
The first goal of the game went to the Comets when Odaine Sinclair scored off an assist from John Sosa. The Comets would build a lead with back to back goals at the 7:32 mark. Leo Gibson recorded his seventh goal of the season assisted by John Sosa and seconds later Stefan Stokic extended the Comets lead to 3. The Blast would get on the board when Jonatas Melo recorded his fourth goal of the season off a restart. Before the end of the half the Comets would strike again with a goal from Guerrero Pino assisted by Ramone Palmer and the Blast went into the locker room trailing 4-1.
In the second half the Blast offense was unable to convert on scoring opportunities. The Comets held the Blast scoreless in the half and added a late goal by Stefan Stokic to seal the victory. At the final buzzer the Blast were defeated 5-1.
The only Blast goal of the night was recorded by Jonatas Melo. Blast goalkeeper, William Vanzela, recorded 6 saves on the night.
The Blast will be back in action Saturday, December 17th when they travel to Dallas to take on the Sidekicks. Kickoff is at 8:05 p.m. EST.

Insurance coverage will vary greatly depending on the insurance company and the specific plan. It is best to check with your insurance provider for the coverage details and to see if you have to select a dietitian from a pre-approved list. If coverage is denied, you can ask for a letter of necessity from your physician and dietitian to appeal the decision to deny coverage. Also, it may be covered under your pre-tax health care spending account.

Geoff Brennecka is on the move.
Brennecka, currently a principal member of the technical staff at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M., will join the faculty at Colorado School of Mines (CSM) on August 18 as an assistant professor at CSM's Colorado Center for Advanced Ceramics (CCAC). His work will focus on the area of electrical ceramics, particularly ferroelectrics and piezoelectrics.
"It's difficult to leave Sandia and my wonderful colleagues in Albuquerque, but it's time for the next chapter in my career," says Brennecka. "I'm excited about the opportunity to devote more time to education and hope that I can help continue the strong ceramics tradition at Mines."
"We are excited to have him because his expertise adds an important dimension of ceramic materials to Mines that currently doesn't exist," says Ivar Reimanis, CSM professor and CCAC director (who also happens to be a member of ACerS 2014 Class of Fellows). "Furthermore, Geoff is a young leader in ceramics who will inspire the next generation of ceramic scientists and engineers."
Brennecka, who helped launch ACerS President's Council of Student Advisors and Young Professionals Network, was previously an adjunct professor at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology and at his alma mater, Missouri University of Science & Technology. At the conclusion of MS&T14 in October, he will begin a three-year term as a member of ACerS Board of Directors and a one-year term as vice chair of the Electronics Division.

Bamboo Forest Escape is a game in which you took a trip to Asia. Your biggest wish was to see some panda bears. But you don't like seeing them in zoo or any other animal center. You think animal's place is in the wild and that's where they look the best. As panda's are inoffensive, you decided to go on your own and search for some. The best place to find them is in a bamboo forest. So without any help you started through the forest to search for pandas. But this forest was different, it's not easy to get around in a bamboo forest. So you didn't find any pandas, but instead got lost. Now you need to escape from the bamboo forest. Good luck!

I'm very excited to have my one year blogiversary just around the corner - August 18 yall! I'm been waiting for this day for what feels like forever, and now that it's almost here, I'm not really sure what to do.
Do you know what else is truly exciting about the 18th of August? Chelsea will be playing their first game of the season! Gaaaaah!!!! (Thats me being excited. Weird, right?)
Anyway, after a lot of thinking I thought I would do one of those 'what I would tell my younger blogging self' posts that everyone seems to be doing right now. I want to be clear - I have read several of these lately, and I am in no way trying to copy anyone.
Also I updated my 'About' page because it was awful, to be honest. You might have noticed I've been fiddling with the design of Opal Swirls as well. It's probably best to let me tinker on because I will never be happy.
So thats what you have to look forward to!

A competent tax attorney can also keep you updated when it comes to new tax laws that might affect your personal or business life.
Particular tax cases can only be resolved through a filing with the court system. If this is the case, you'd need to work with a lawyer for legal representation during the formal proceedings. Your attorney will be able to research the tax laws before trial, and can then present the relevant legal arguments before the judge.
Tax laws frequently overlap with other laws, such as business laws, trusts/wills laws, and property laws. Tax attorneys can therefore have knowledge in many types of laws, which allows them to help you with even complex legal matters. In addition, many tax attorneys specialize in various sub-sections of tax law.

UQx support for Learning Research
UQx offers opportunities to conduct scholarly research in online learning and establish research partnerships with edX consortium members. The edX platform is subject to ongoing development, and an opportunity exists for researchers to influence that development to provide insights into the online learning process. Millions of students are engaged in online learning through edX. This is 'big data', but is only useful to the extent to which we derive questions based on theoretical frameworks that inform our understanding of learning. The possibilities are wide and limited only by our creative imagination.
MOOC Research Data
The edX platform collects detailed activity stream and course state data which is made available to UQx on a weekly basis. This is big data, with about 1GB of new data added each week. UQx has developed the MOOCczar MOOC Research Data Management Platform to ingest and manage this data. UQx have released MOOCczar as an open-source contribution to the OpenedX community and it is being trailed at a number of partner institutions. At UQx, MOOCczar runs on the national Research Infrastructure services RDSI and Nectar. MOOCczar provides researchers with API access to SQL and NON-SQL databases created from the data collection.
Data Dashboards
UQx is continually developing dashboards and infographics displays built upon the MOOCczar APIs. These assist in reporting UQx course metrics and provide researchers and course staff with useful aggregated data to compare courses. Some of these info-graphics and visualisations are available under the DATA menu on this site.
Course Reports
Upon completion of each UQx course a UQx Course report is developed to provide a permanent record of the Course data. The Course Report CMS is another UQx development that builds upon MOOCczar APIs. UQx gratefully acknowledges the collaboration and assistance of our partner institutions HarvardX and MITx who provided us with access to many resources developed for their own course reports. These course reports will be listed here as they are finalised.
THINK101x: The Science of Everyday Thinking
HYPERS301x: Hypersonics - from Shock Waves to Scramjets
BIOIMG101x: Introduction to Biomedical Imaging
WRITE101x: English Grammar and Style
TROPIC101x: Tropical Coastal Ecosystems
WORLD101x: Anthropology of Current World Issues
CRIME101x: The Psychology of Criminal Justice
DENIAL101x: Making Sense of Climate Science Denial
UQx Course Surveys
UQx has been developing standardised pre and post surveys which are now included in every UQx course. Data from these instruments will give insights into the different cohorts engaging with our courses and allow us to also compare with on-campus cohorts.
LEARN101x: Engaging with Learning Research (in preparation)
This mini-MOOC not only provides learners with an opportunity to learn about the how and why of learning research, but provides an opportunity for them to engage with real research studies. For researchers, Learn101x is a platform for conducting studies with a cohort of lifelong learners who want to be a part of the development of the future of online learning. Learn101x will launch in early 2015. Studies included in Learn101x can draw participants from across all course cohorts and explicit consent is obtained from learners to associate their other UQx course data with the data from the Learn101x studies.
Content Experiments and other In-course Studies
UQx course teams are encouraged to build research studies into their course designs. This is often the best way to gather data about learners and the learning process. The edX platform enables content experiments to be easily created where the cohort is split across two or more alternative content designs in one or many places within the course. Other in-course activities or surveys can also be used to gather data for learning research. UQx supports course teams undertaking research studies within their course with learning design, technical development, data analytics and research assistance services provided as part of the course project plan.

Must be a Protestant...
So I'm in the local Foodland supermarket and run into the Roman Catholic priest, who is nicely dressed in a dark blue clerical shirt (I own the same one). I, on the other hand, am wearing a black MMA Elite T-shirt with a large cross, a camouflage hunting jacket, Levi's, and a International Ice Hockey Federation ball cap. Oh, and I haven't shaved, either (but, in my defence, neither do the actors on Hawaii Five-Oh). The parishioners he is chatting with must be silently comparing Catholic and Protestant clergy.

KOKOMO, Ind. – A Kokomo family is relying on friends and faith to keep them strong amid major life obstacles.
Randy Rogers and his sons Gradyn, 17, and Brendyn, 15, sat in a different Garden Square Apartments on Tuesday night. Theirs was damaged in the tornado back in August.
Brendyn was home alone.
"It was really loud. It sounded like I was on a railroad track and a train just ran over," he said.
It was terrifying for him but even more so for his dad. Brendyn facetimed him during the storm. Amazingly, the connection held on.
"All I heard was him screaming, crying, I think I'm going to die, dad," said Randy.
Randy and Gradyn were at Riley Hospital that day. Gradyn, a junior at Kokomo High School, was getting chemotherapy.
He first fought leukemia at three years old and beat it. But when the athlete and Eagle Scout started losing energy late this summer, doctors dealt him a terrifying blow – the cancer came back.
"I guess everything happens for a reason. I just haven't figured out what that reason is yet," said Gradyn.
"We have a strong faith in God. That's really helped us and comforted us," said Randy.
Both said they don't ask why. Instead, they just give thanks for generous hearts in Kokomo and beyond, who are now Gradyn Strong.
"I try to avoid negative thoughts. I usually try to keep my spirits up," Gradyn said.
They hope that this season of trials will soon pass.
"Just keep us in your prayers, we need all the prayers that we can," said Randy.
Wednesday from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m., four McDonald's restaurants in Kokomo will give a portion of their sales to the family. Three of those locations are on SR 931. The other is on West Sycamore Street.
Saturday from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m, the Family Video on Southway Boulevard at Alto Road on Kokomo's South Side will have a fundraiser.
Gradyn starts another round of chemotherapy next week. He will have to take it on and off for the next two years.

Programmed by Beguiled Cinema!
The late German avant-garde filmmaker Harun Farocki made over 100 films, had major retrospective exhibitions at MOMA and the Tate Modern in London, and was called "surely one the most challenging, speculative and distinctive filmmakers ever to confront an audience" by The Los Angeles Times. Farocki's The Interview (1996, 58 min.) is a fascinating documentary about a training course that teaches people how to apply for a job. Using video to critique their trainees' practice interview performances, career counselors teach job seekers how to market and sell themselves, a skill to which the term "self-management" is applied. Under the critical eye of Farocki, these counselors are themselves scrutinized as they drill falseness into these job hopefuls.
Presented with Greg Stephen Reigh's Paying My Bills (2014, 16 min.) and various 16mm educational shorts from the Indiana University Libraries Moving Image Archive. Special thanks to IULMIA archivist Andy Uhrich for helping to curate the latter selection.
