|John Fogerty
|Creedence Clearwater Revival singles chronology
"Travelin' Band" is a song written by John Fogerty and originally recorded by Creedence Clearwater Revival. It was included on their 1970 album Cosmo's Factory. Backed with "Who'll Stop the Rain", it was one of three double sided singles from that album to reach the top five on the U.S. Pop Singles Chart and the first of two to reach the #2 spot on the American charts, alongside "Lookin' Out My Back Door". "Travelin' Band" was also a hit in the UK, reaching number eight on the UK Singles Chart.
The song was inspired, both musically and for Fogerty's vocal delivery, by 1950s rock 'n' roll songs, particularly Little Richard's. In October 1972, the company that held the publishing rights to Richard's "Good Golly, Miss Molly" felt that "Travelin' Band" bore enough similarities to warrant a plagiarism lawsuit that was later settled out of court. The lyrics of the song describe what life is like for a musician on the road. The opening line "Seven-thirty-seven coming out of the sky" refers to the Boeing 737, then coming into service on short-to-medium range routes.
It has been covered by a few artists, most notably Elton John, who recorded a cover of the song early in his career, and Bruce Springsteen, who has incorporated it into his "Detroit Medley" during live shows on numerous occasions. Jerry Lee Lewis sang the song with Fogerty on the album Last Man Standing.
The song appeared in the Brazilian film O Homem Que Copiava in relation to an over-the-hill rock fan who has a preference for Creedence. It plays during the armored car robbery sequence.
Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, the song was placed on the list of post-9/11 inappropriate titles distributed by Clear Channel.
On April 18, 2010, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Brad Paisley, Charlie Daniels, and John Fogerty performed the song as the opening to the 2010 Academy of Country Music Awards.
The full version of "Travelin' Band" is played during the fight scene of the third episode of the television show, The Good Guys.[1]
A cover of "Travelin' Band" by Curtis Stigers and The Forest Rangers is played during a chase scene in season 3 episode 7 of the television show Sons of Anarchy.
The song is available as a playable song for the Rock Band series of music video games as downloadable content.

Charlie Brown Is Sadder Than Ever in New Peanuts Trailer
But Snoopy is a dancing machine, and there is hope.
Charlie Brown wants to be a winner this November, when the CGI Peanuts movie comes out. He's got snowmen to play baseball with, people to prove wrong, and a little red-haired girl to win over. Truthfully, he looks pretty darn sad, but luckily, his BFF Snoopy will be there to help — mostly in the form of dancing to the Gipsy Kings and wearing sunglasses.

RS Rathee, member of Toll Hatao Sangram Samiti, Gurgaon said, "The protest which we were doing, was to remove both the toll plaza's, but the government has taken up the decision to remove only one toll plaza. Though we are happy that Sirhaul toll plaza has been removed, but we will not give up our fight till the Kherki Dhaula toll plaza is also removed."
The Kherki Dhaula toll plaza is equally troublesome for the commuters of Gurgaon and Manesar, as was the Delhi-Gurgaon Sirhaul Toll Plaza. With one getting removed and an extra burden put on the other, the battle seems to be half won for the people and organizations like Toll Hatao Sangram Samiti (THSS), Gurgaon Citizen's council, who were fighting for the removal of both the toll plazas.
Col. Kanwar Bhardwaj, Chairman THSS has shown his concern about not removing the Kherki Dhaula toll plaza and increasing the charges of it, "It will be a relief for the people using the Sirhaul toll plaza, but the removal of Kherki Dhaula toll plaza will take some time. The chief minister has himself on various occasions said that the toll plaza should be removed, so we hope that Kherki Dhaula toll plaza also will be removed soon."
On the same lines Gaurav Singla, PRO Gurgaon Citizen's council said that, they will continue their protest for the removal of Kherki Dhaula toll plaza. "We will soon have a committee meeting and will discuss on the issue of price rise on the Manesar toll, as our primary agenda because the charges are almost doubled," he said.
While the THSS is perhaps the only registered body which is fighting for the toll plaza removal, but there are several other groups and individuals fighting for the same cause and Mangat Ram Baghri, MCG Councillor, Gurgaon, who was even arrested for this cause, said, "We will intensify our protest, and will ask the government to remove the Kherki Dhaula toll plaza as soon as possible."

Rungwecebus kipunji
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Rungwecebus kipunji (Ehardt, Butynski, Jones & Davenport, 2005)
Common Name(s):
Lophocebus kipunji (Ehardt, Butynski, Jones & Davenport, 2005)
|Taxonomic Source(s):
|Mittermeier, R.A., Rylands, A.B. and Wilson D.E. 2013. Handbook of the Mammals of the World: Volume 3 Primates. Lynx Edicions, Barcelona.
|Taxonomic Notes:
|Africa's most recently discovered (2003) and described (2005) species and genus (2006) of monkey (Davenport 2005, Jones et al. 2005, Davenport et al.. 2006). Originally allocated to the genus Lophocebus (Jones et al. 2005), but later placed in the monotypic genus Rungwecebus by Davenport et al.. (2006) on the basis of molecular and morphological data. The genus to which R. kipunji belongs was questioned by Ehardt and Butynski (2006), but much further evidence supports the phylogenetic position and taxonomic status of Rungwecebus (Olson et al.. in press). The evolutionary implications of Rungwecebus being a sister taxon to Papio are considerable (Davenport in press, Olson et al.. in press).
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Critically Endangered B1ab(i,ii,iii,iv,v) ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Davenport, T.R.B. & Jones, T.
|Mittermeier, R.A. & Rylands, A.B. (Primate Red List Authority)
The kipunji is more sparsely distributed than initially thought (Jones et al. 2005; Davenport et al. 2006). The small extent of occurrence in Ndundulu and the patchy distribution in Rungwe-Kitulo give grounds for considerable conservation concern. The total extent of occurrence of 20.6 km² is considerably less than the 100 km² required to meet the threshold for listing as Critically Endangered under criterion B. In addition, the range is severely fragmented (B1a), and remote sensing analyses of forest loss over the last 20 years in Rungwe-Kitulo leads us to infer there has been a decline, which is continuing. Moreover, the unmanaged state of Mt Rungwe, the continued forest destruction of Mt Rungwe and Livingstone Forest in Kitulo National Park, persistent hunting of monkeys across Rungwe-Kitulo, especially those which raid crops, as well as the highly precarious nature of the small population in Ndundulu, leads us to project a continuing decline (B1b) in the extent of occurrence; area of occupancy; area, extent and quality of habitat; the number of locations or subpopulations; and the number of mature individuals of the species. As a consequence, the species is here listed as Critically Endangered, in line with recommendations by Davenport et al. (in press).
|Range Description:
|A Tanzanian endemic known only from two populations separated by ca. 350 km of non-forested land. One population is at 1,750-2,450 m in 12.4 km² of Rungwe-Kitulo Forest (Davenport et al. 2008) in the Southern Highlands of south-western Tanzania (09.12º-09.18ºS, 33.67º-33.92ºE). The Rungwe-Kitulo Forest includes Mt. Rungwe Forest Reserve (150 km²) and the Livingstone Forest (191 km²), which lies within the 412 km² Kitulo National Park (Davenport 2002; Davenport and Bytebier 2004; Davenport et al. 2005, 2006, 2008). Mt. Rungwe and Livingstone Forest are connected by the Bujingijila Corridor, a two km wide degraded forest connection (Davenport 2005, 2006; Mwakilema and Davenport 2005). The Kipunji inhabits the wetter forest of south Mt. Rungwe and isolated groups are scattered in the north and south of Livingstone Forest (Davenport 2005; Jones et al.. 2005; Davenport et al.. 2006, 2008). Anecdotal evidence points to the historical presence of the species in other Southern Highland forests, though this is unconfirmed and recent extensive searches have found no new subpopulations in other forests (Davenport et al. 2008).
The other population of R. kipunji is at 1,300-1,750 m in the Vikongwa Valley, Ndundulu Forest (07.67º-07.85ºS, 35.17º-36.83ºE; ca. 180 km of closed forest), in the Kilombero Nature Reserve in the Udzungwa Mountains, south-central Tanzania (Jones et al.. 2005). The area known to be occupied by the species in the Ndundulu Forest is 8.2 km² (Davenport et al.. 2008; Jones et al. unpubl.). Previous and more recent research in Ndundulu Forest indicate the animal is absent from large parts of this forest (Jones 2006; Davenport et al.. 2008). The area of occupancy (AOO) achieved by the sum of the occupied grid squares is 10.79 km² in Rungwe-Kitulo and 3.18 km² in Ndundulu giving a combined species AOO of 13.97 km² (Davenport in press; Jones et al.. unpubl.). The species' extent of occurrence (EOO) was estimated to be 12.41 km² in Rungwe-Kitulo and 8.19 km² in Ndundulu, with the combined total EOO (species range) just 20.6 km² (Davenport et al.. 2008; Jones et al. unpubl.).

|Surveys totalling 2,864 hours and covering 3,456 km of transect were undertaken by Davenport et al. (2008) to determine distribution and group numbers. In addition, 772 hours of simultaneous multi-group observational follows in Rungwe-Kitulo and Ndundulu forests enabled 209 total counts to be carried out. Davenport et al. (2008) estimated some 1,042 individuals in Rungwe-Kitulo, ranging from 25 to 39 individuals per group (µ = 30.65; SE = 0.62; n = 34), and 75 individuals in Ndundulu, ranging from 15 to 25 individuals per group (µ = 18.75; SE = 2.39; n = 4). The total Kipunji population was thus estimated to be 1,117 animals in 38 groups (µ = 29.39; SE = 0.85; n = 38). The Ndundulu population may no longer be viable and the Rungwe-Kitulo population is highly fragmented with isolated subpopulations remaining in degraded habitat (Davenport et al.. 2008).
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|Habitat ranges from degraded montane and upper montane forest from 1,750-2,450 m in Rungwe-Kitulo, to pristine submontane forest in Ndundulu (Davenport and Jones 2005; Jones et al. 2005; Jones 2006; Davenport et al.. 2006, 2008). In Rungwe-Kitulo, the canopy is often broken and between 10 and 30 m with emergents to 35 m. The Kipunji prefers steep-sided gullies and valley edges and is rarely found far from streams (Davenport and Butynski in press). Ridges and open areas are usually avoided. The forest has been greatly reduced by logging (Lovett 1986; McKone and Walzem 1994; Machaga et al.. 2004; Davenport 2005, 2006). Thick undergrowth is typical, with the tree fern Cyathea manniana, wild banana Ensete ventricosum, and large stands of bamboo Sinarundinaria alpina common in the south and south-east of Mt. Rungwe and the north-west of Livingstone (Davenport and Butynski in press; Gereau et al.. in press). The species rarely frequents the bamboo and leaves the forest only to raid nearby crops. In southern Mt Rungwe, annual rainfall ranges from ca. 185-280 cm and there is a distinct but short dry season from June to October. In Ndundulu, the Parinari excelsa-dominant forest is undisturbed and the canopy is unbroken, reaching a height of between 40 and 50 m (Jones 2006).
|Major Threat(s):
The threats to the Kipunji are considerable. The Rungwe-Kitulo forests are severely degraded. Logging, charcoal making, illegal hunting and unmanaged resource extraction are common (Davenport 2005, 2006; Machaga et al. 2004). The narrow Bujingijila Corridor linking Mt Rungwe to Livingstone Forest, and the corridors joining the northern and southern sections of Livingstone, are encroached by farmers and degraded (Davenport 2005; Jones et al.. 2005; Mwakilema and Davenport 2005). Without immediate conservation intervention these forests will be fragmented, resulting in isolated subpopulations some of which are unlikely to be viable over the long-term (Davenport et al.. in press). The Kipunji is hunted in the Southern Highlands (Davenport 2005, 2006), mainly as retribution for the crop-raiding of maize and the leaves of beans and potatoes in the first few months of the year. However, the monkey is also occasionally hunted for food.
Mt. Rungwe, while nominally a Forest Reserve, remains unmanaged and unprotected, although there are moves to upgrade its status. Although Ndundulu Forest is in excellent condition, and largely undisturbed (Davenport and Jones 2005; Davenport et al.. 2005; Jones, 2006), the species is present in low numbers (Davenport et al.. 2008). The reasons for this are unclear (Davenport and Jones 2005; Jones 2006). The gazettement in August 2007 of Kilombero Nature Reserve incorporating Matundu, Iyondo and West Kilombero Scarp (including Ndundulu) (Marshall et al.. 2007) may serve to further protect the species in Ndundulu. However, whether this population is viable in the long term is debatable (Jones 2006; Davenport et al.. 2008).
|Conservation Actions:
The Kipunji occurs entirely within protected areas, 48.4% within Kitulo National Park, 44.9% within Mt Rungwe Catchment Forest Reserve and 6.7% within the Kilombero Nature Reserve (Davenport et al. in press). However, only the national park has any current management activities and they remain limited, especially within the forest (Mwakilema and Davenport 2005). The focus of current Kipunji conservation work is the protection and restoration of the montane habitats of Mount Rungwe, especially the forest connections such as Bujingijila Corridor (Davenport 2005, 2006). Protecting these corridors is of the highest priority for the conservation of this genus/species. In addition, research into the reasons for, and viability of, the extremely small Udzungwa population, conservation education and long-term monitoring of both populations is important (Jones 2006; Davenport et al.. 2008). The Kipunji is being used as a 'flagship species' by the Wildlife Conservation Society's long-term Southern Highlands Conservation Programme in and around Rungwe-Kitulo, especially in education and awareness raising activities, and as part of a long-term monitoring programme.

The prime minister said he was "truly sorry" that the system had allowed "horrific abuse to go unchecked and unchallenged" for so long.
The report itself did not name and shame any officials or doctors.
Originally posted by A boy in a dress
Many moons ago in England, my Father had an external ulcer on his lower-leg and went to
his Doctor for treatment. After being told to 'rub this cream on and it'll go away' -he took to
his bed with the pain and swelling.
My Mother eventually rang the same Doctor and he came and announced that a female
nurse would come and tend to the wound.
Days passed.
Thinking that the ulcer may be more than just an awful sight, my Mother called the hospital
and explained the situation to the folk there. The Doctor had just left and assured her all
would be well, but she wasn't convinced.
The ambulance arrived at noon of that day and they amputated the leg above the knee by
2.00pm in the afternoon.
Two weeks later, he was dead.
Five years passed and my Mother visited my home for Christmas. She commented that she
didn't seem to have an appetite these days and said that her stomach 'seemed like stone'
After a few weeks, she went to the same Hospital and asked for advice.
They checked her in and we visited her in the ward that evening.
I asked the Doctor during his rounds, what was wrong and he said that 'we're still doing
tests' and moved off.
A week later, I popped in on my way from work and found the bed empty. Seeking a nurse,
I asked where my Mother was and she answered 'the woman in the next bed wanted her
curtain closed and your Mother went to help. She's fallen and broken her hip'
I went ballistic! I demanded to see an official and when eventually, a guy in a white coat
arrived, he explained that due to the Nurses changing their shift, nobody had been there
to assist the woman with the curtain, so my Mother had got out of bed and slipped.
Oh, so that makes it okay I suppose?!
She died a week later.
I waited at her bedside with my sister as my Mother slipped away and then as midnight
passed, I indicated to my sister that a Doctor should check to see if she had died.
Standing in the corridor as the Doctor and Nurse checked to see if my Mother had gone,
a little woman in nylon shawl appeared and said that it was a shame and that she knew
my Mother through the years.
I smiled and thanked her and that was when I noticed the three or four people waiting
further up the corridor. The woman continued.
"I wouldn't bother making anything out of her fall, it was an accident" she said nervously
and glanced back at the folk watching us.
She added that I probably wouldn't get any money from it too!
Biting down on my anger, I told her in low tones that nothing I could do would bring her back,
so she could scamper back to her 'rat-gang' and tell them they'll keep their jobs.
As she hurried off, I warned that I would be watching and listening for any more screw-ups.
It was only my sister's hand on my arm that stopped me from chasing after them.
This was in the 90's -when hosptial treatment was in it's infancy, thank the Lord we've
come a long way since then, huh?!!
I don't know how you kept your cool. Losing both parents through negligence
must have been terrible.
Am fed up with the media saying nurses are # today! Why is no one saying it is not ok for 2 nurses to look after 28 patients and go for 15 hours with hardly anything to eat & drink! I have worked at Stafford hospital & it is no worse than any other hospital I have worked in. If the government want to make us more compassionate make the nurse to patient ratio 1 nurse to 4 patients like it is in Australia & stop slagging us off we work #ing hard! Rant over.

Addressing end-of-life choices for patients
The recent incident at Glenwood Gardens in California has hopefully spurred nurses and administrators across the nation to improve their caregiver roles and policies related to end-of-life situations.
These events remind us once again of the importance of having end-of-life affairs in order BEFORE the end of life. Communicating these desires should be neither time-consuming nor costly.
Patients and caregivers alike may view addressing end-of-life desires with reluctance at best. Many facilities include a "Yes/No" question on the admission interview about having a living will, but rarely is any follow-up provided for those who answer "No."
I recently came across a website, Good End of Life, that provides a simple approach to items that need to be addressed concerning end-of-life. Nurses should review this site for themselves and their patients for the following reasons:
1. It's easy to navigate and understand.
Easy-to-understand means less time lost trying to figure out legal jargon. This site is appropriate for elderly clients and those who can read on a 5th to 8th grade level.
2. Good End of Life sells nothing.
No worries about scams. No worries about overpaying for services. It's just basic information, free PDF worksheets that open in browser windows and a few links to other sites for more research.
3. The website includes more than just end-of-life suggestions and documents.
A panicked trip to the ER can result in little to no information being available to the ER staff about you or your health history. This site offers a free Medical Summary worksheet (Excel file requires download) that can be filled out and stored in case of emergency.
4. The author welcomes input from clients and caregivers alike.
Current information is valuable, but no one person can keep up with it all the time. Based on your experiences, consider helping to improve this website by sending an email to the contact person listed on the site. Nurses have such widely varied experiences that we are ideal professionals to speak up on how to improve end-of-life care for the majority of the population.
Having a patient's end-of-life choices in written form is not only beneficial to the patient, but also to the family and professional caregivers. We should all encourage each other and our patients to address this need to avoid unnecessary end-of-life anxiety.
Does your facility have a procedure in place to address the needs of those who do not currently have living wills? Tell us in the comments!

I am using a DrDAQ with external temperature probes and PicoLog 5.16.2
Although the probes are obviously registering temperatures below freezing and PicoLog is recording them, they do not register on the graph display. I have tried to manually change the temperature scale but all it will do is alter the maximum on the scale. The bottom of the scale stays firmly at 0 (actually it's probably about -0.5)
Will the latest version of PicoLog fix this?

This is very cool. Need to get some expert training and validation on the tastes. Not sure I'm properly tuned to them all.
Hat tip TAB.
This was the study that found men susceptible to the scent of doughnuts mingled with licorice. For women, first place for most arousing was a tie between baby powder and the combination of Good & Plenty candy with cucumber. Coming in second was a combination of Good & Plenty and banana nut bread.
In terms of meals (getting beyond scent alone) — my ideas: sushi or tapas. Light, small plates, that you eat with your hands for the most part…

The Wild LifeDVD - 2016
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
It was a cute movie, but overall not one that I would go out of my way to see. Or purchase.
DVD is so scratched it didn't even play.
The movie was cute, and the kids loved it, but I wouldn't buy it.
I've never left a comment before.. I wanted to say that I thought this movie has an excellent message. It has beautiful animations and backgrounds. It's not the typical Hollywood cartoon movie. There are no recognizable voices or actors, but that is ok. It does have some things that may be unsuitable for younger children or for children who don't have a parent watching with them, such as animals using a rifle. It does clearly say 'not to try this' at home, but it still looks dangerous and isn't something that is normally shown in children's movies. I just thought it was a cute movie with a good message that kept me engaged and interested throughout... and I'm an adult. Great family movie!
If you dislike cats this is the movie for you!

Back again with another round of Hotel Chocolat's Tasting Collection. So far we have looked at the Classic, Mellow, and High Cocoa; now it is time to move on to the Fortified Tasting Box, which provides a selection of truffles all containing a boozy treat of some kind.
Apart from a slightly darker tonal shift, the red box looks pretty much the same as the classic version. On a shelf they might be a bit difficult to tell apart, but since the tasting collections are usually sent out in the post, it does not really matter.
The menu for the Fortified box not only describes the truffles, but also features one of the spirits used. It explains the origins of Five Kings Brandy, such as how it got its name, how and where it is made, as well as the flavours it produces. These added details are always interesting, especially if you eat chocolate with a connoisseur's hat.
1. Appleton Estate Rum
Jamaica is the father of rum and, on the country's Appleton estate, they use sugar cane, spring water, and oak aged barrels to bring out all its subtle flavours, including toffee and vanilla. The scent of vanilla comes through the truffle's mellow 70% chocolate shell, which is filled with a smooth 40% milk ganache. Although described as 'knock your socks off' in strength, I found the rum very gentle: lovely and warming. 8/10.
2. After Dinner Armagnac
The After Dinner Armagnac gives off sweet vanilla notes and is decorated with creamy white chocolate dots. Individually, each of these dots has a lot of flavour, but they do get lost in the overall experience of the truffle. The Armagnac truffle is meant to also contain coffee, but I could not detect any. Despite this, it tastes delicious and still gets 8/10.
3. Penderyn Whisky Caramel
This Welsh whisky truffle was a bit perplexing given that I could not find any of the flavour notes described (rich fruit, raisins, vanilla, toffee, caramel). It tasted fine, but it was ultimately very forgettable. 6.5/10
4. Penderyn Whisky Dark
When you change the base, you change everything. Although using the same whisky, the switch to 50% 'Supermilk' shell and dark chocolate ganache turned it into something completely different. Here you get smoky notes and a much deeper flavour. 7/10
5. Ruby Port Truffle
This truffle smells of red berries and is full of rich deep red wine flavours. The port goes very well with the 62% dark chocolate ganache, which uses cacao from Brazil. 9/10
6. Cointreau Ingot
If you are looking for something with a lighter flavour, this Cointreau Ingot has soft citrus notes of orange. It is very juicy and delicate alcoholic notes. 10/10
7. Sipsmith Sipping Vodka
According to chocolatier, Kiri Kalenko, she chose white chocolate as the base so that the vodka could shine through, undiluted by other flavours. It works. The vodka has a sweetness to it, which is enhanced by notes of vanilla from the creamy white ganache. 10/10
8. Sidecar Cocktail
While the Cointreau Ingot was a light delight, the Cointreau in the Sidecar Cocktail is much stronger. This is because you get a double helping, mixed with cognac. The alcohol, however, overpowered the other ingredients, which apparently includes lemon oil and orange. For that I can only take their word, because I was only able to taste the booze – nice as that was. 7/10
9. Five Kings Brandy
Five Kings Brandy is named after an historic banquet held in London in 1361. Among the guests were five kings including England's Edward III, John II of France, David II of Scotland, Valdemar IV of Denmark, and Cyprus's Peter I. They were served a similar spirit to what the Five Kings Brandy is today, which is made from Cypriot xynisteri grapes. The grapes are turned into white wine, which is then distilled and aged in French Limousin oak for at least fifteen years. Here the brandy is infused into a milk chocolate ganache, and has a sweet mellow flavour. 8/10
10. Amaretto and Frangelico
Amaretto and Frangelico are both nut liqueurs with notes of almonds and hazelnuts, respectively. Here you get the taste of a praline without the thick richness. Instead the filling is a light white ganache, which provides subtle hints of marzipan. 7/10
11. Eagle Rare Bourbon
At first, the Eagle Rare Bourbon looks like it has everything going for it, with its thick outer supermilk shell, and dense truffle filling. Sadly, it does not live up to expectations. The bourbon is crafted in Kentucky and aged for ten years in oak barrels, which is supposed to give it 'warm notes of raisins, toffee, cocoa, and candied almonds'. I must not have been paying attention, because these elements were lost on me. All I got was strong whisky and a slightly sickly feeling. If there were no bourbon, it would have been a beautiful truffle, but that would also take way the whole point. 6/10
12. Gin Truffle
After biting through its 70% dark chocolate shell with a satisfying crack, you will be immediately hit with strong notes of juniper. Floral and slightly fruity, it has a light aromatic flavour that I found pleasing, but may not be to everyone's taste. 7/10
13. Raspberry Liqueur
I had high expectations for this Raspberry liqueur, but it failed to deliver and ended up being my least favourite of the collection. The truffle lacks any zest, zing, and raspberry for that matter. It has a very high volume of alcohol, which just gave me a headache. 5/10
. Black Cat Martini
Fortunately, we can end the review on a high as the Black Cat Martini more than made up for previous disappointment. Its juicy ganache is a combination of blackcurrant and liquorice blended with grey goose vodka and is both warming and revitalising. 8/10
Hotel Chocolat's Fortified Collection provides a great variety of different liqueurs, spirits, and wine. In some instances the alcohol can be too strong and drowns out the chocolate flavours, but in most instance, there is a good complimentary balance.

Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) February 01, 2014
The First Annual JROTC PT Challenge, hosted by the Allen West Foundation, was a huge success; team pride was on display and fun was had by all who participated. The event featured leadership and team building activities including a three mile run and PT competition. The First Annual JROTC PT Challenge took place at John Prince Park, 4759 South Congress Avenue, Lake Worth, Florida 33461 on Saturday, January 25th, 2014, and the teams began arriving at 8:00 a.m., some driving 172 miles from the west coast of Florida to participate that morning. The sun was shining and the air was brisk but quickly warmed to the '70's making it an ideal day to hold the competition.
Participants in the event were from Palm Beach County, Lee County and Broward County JROTC programs. Teams consisted of 7 members, both male and female participants, in high school JROTC programs. Lt. Col and former Congressman West participated in the event, taking part in each activity alongside the JROTC student entrants. Lt. Col West displayed an admirable level of fitness, despite being retired after 21 years in the Army and returning to civilian life 10 years ago.
The Allen West Foundation team acknowledges the wonderful volunteers for the day: Linda Johnson (aka "Military Mom), Ed McCarthy, Gary L Baura, CSM US Army SF Ret., and the Photography/ Videography was supplied by Boris Balaban. A great debt of gratitude goes out to MAJ Bobby Allen, members of the PBSO SWAT Team, who came with equipment to show the students and the PBSO BBQ Chef Ken, and Palm Beach County PBA who donated the food.
In the tenth grade Allen West joined the Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps program. Congressman West received his Bachelor's degree while on an ROTC scholarship at the University of Tennessee and later went on to get a Master's degree from Kansas State University, both in political science, and entered the United States Army in 1983 when he graduated from the University of Tennessee. Congressman West was the US Army ROTC Instructor of the Year in 1993 and he accredits the JROTC with forming the basis for his life of service and commitment to the nation. He firmly believes that education is the great equalizer and that with a good education any child in America can live his or her dream. To that end the Allen West Foundation was formed as Congressman West's legacy; to educate, engage and inspire the next generation of conservative leaders.
Awards that were presented for the First Annual JROTC Challenge were: 1st Place to the team from Mariner High School, Cape Coral, FL, Army JROTC Triton Brigade, led by Master Sergeant William Miller, included the following students; Kya Sedachuk, Keller Smith, Tucker Bigletti, James Angiulo, Ivana Castaldi, Valerie Munoz, Marc Sendra, and Keller Nocera-Smith.
2nd place went to Boca Raton Community High School Navy JROTC Bobcat Regiment Team. The instructor for the Bobcats, LCDR Ken Bingham, said; "The cadets thought this event was awesome- we did not win this year but we will not be beat at next year's event. That is not happening - we will have 5 teams there next year! Col West's heart is with the kids and that is very important, and the kids see that. I will be happy to get the word out to other units- this event was great and we can't wait until the next one."
Boca Raton Team 1 participating students included Jake Woods, Spencer Lee, Matthew Core, Nathan Core, Jennifer Maji, Marissa Francis, and Miranda O'Belmin. Boca Raton Team 2 participants included Anthony Lewis, Ross Woods, Marcus Fuller, Gabriel Reis, Samantha Muzal, Madeleine Martin, and Angie Rincon. Boca Raton Team 3 participants included Brian Brown, Miller Caldwell, Madison Weidman, Jaymarie Colon-Perez, Kasper Paley, Amanda McCarthy and Brandon Augistin.
Michael W. Griffin, MSgt, USAF (Ret.), one of the AF JROTC Instructors at Coral Springs High School said, "We couldn't be more excited about the JROTC PT Challenge event and we are already looking forward to the next one. We thank Lt. Col. West and the Allen West Foundation for having an event like this for the students in the JROTC program here and for inviting us to participate." Major Rahmaan, Instructor; Coral Springs High School Raiders Unit FL-9310 / Air Force JROTC; attended the event along with his team, and the students in Unit FL-9310 AF JROTC who competed included: Coalan Romeo (Team Captain), Tyler Brunton, Cody Dube, Christian Felix, Alyssia Griffin and Daisy Arroyo.
All participants in the event will receive a framable Certificate of Participation signed by Lt. Col Allen West. Lt. Col West said, "These kids are the future and this event, and reaffirms the fact that these young people are dedicated motivated young individuals. They are the next generation of true patriots."
About The Allen West Foundation: The Allen West Foundation was established in January, 2013, to educate, engage and inspire the next generation of conservative veteran, minority and female leaders. In addition to directly supporting organizations such as Young Marines, Junior ROTC and Navy Sea Cadets, the Foundation conducts various forums, educational events and leadership training seminars across the country.

In Depth: Cutting the cord: why wireless charging will finally power up in 2014
Wireless power today is mostly about convenience; not having to fish out a cable and get it the right way round when you plug it in. But once it becomes ubiquitous, it will change the way devices are designed; they can have smaller batteries or save space by not needing the power port at all.
This year at CES, as well as seeing the latest wireless power products and the next step in wireless charging technology, we also got some good news on getting more users and businesses on board with wireless power - 2014 will definitely be a big year for wireless charging.
There are over 60 different phones that have Qi wireless charging (the inductive charging standard) built in today - and 40 million of them have been sold - and because it's a standard, you can put your phone down on any Qi charging surface and it will just start grabbing power.
If your phone doesn't have Qi built in, Incipio introduced a line of wireless charging pads and protective cases at CES that add it (including Lumia models like the Nokia Lumia 920 and Nokia Lumia 1520 that have a connector designed to simplify adding a charging case).
That surface doesn't have to be a pad on your desk either. It could be a light or a mouse mat: silicon valley startup Kudos Tech had prototypes for both, although no dates for putting them into production yet.
You don't have to only charge a phone; IDAPT has added a Qi charging module to its clever Modulo battery system, which lets you connect up to five external 2000mAh batteries to charge your phone or tablet.
Snap on as many batteries as you need to take with you and drop it onto a wireless charger to keep them topped up before you leave.

Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Ryze - LoL's best nuke! I'll keep it short and simple and give you the tips and tricks on how to carry with Ryze. You'll be spamming the / taunt at all your enemies!
Early Game
Grab a Doran's Ring and a Health pot and get over to mid. I stress that getting last hits is very important, I may also add that harassing with your Spell flux is very effective and is a very good way to last hit those minions!
Mid Game
You should have your arch and have or started building a Mejais. Note only get a Mejais if you're getting fed, if not just get another Arch Angels'. If you're not getting lots of kills don't worry! Ryze is a great late game champ and can carry very easily.
Late Game
You should be hitting around 1k+ AP and nuking anyone down. Pretty much impossible to 1v1 and with a flash you'll be able to steamroll a kid and flash out. That's what I call a hit and run!

A recent survey -- taken prior to revelations about IRS misconduct and commissioned by the American Conservative Union -- showed that a majority of Americans have become increasingly concerned about their free speech and privacy rights.
Americans since the founding of our Republic, have placed the protection of our personal freedoms and right to privacy above all else. We have been rightfully alarmed over the past months as we have watched the federal government intrude into the private lives of its citizens.
Whether its members of the press being submitted to eavesdropping without due process, certain members of Congress trying to forcefully obtain names of contributors to our favorite causes, government forcing businesses who bid for government work to inform this administration to whom they have made political contributions, or the IRS taking oppressive and selective actions against organizations with conservative leanings, it is clear that we are at a tipping point.
Take it from me. My family learned first-hand the consequences of losing our personal freedoms in our native Cuba where we lost every right a free person should expect. They included the right to express one's political beliefs, the right to disagree with one's government without repercussions and the right to be free from government intrusion into every aspect of one's life.
In America one section of our government grants political asylum to citizens from other countries fleeing oppressive regimes who have taken away all their rights, while another section of our same government exerts total power and authority over our personal finances and intimidates its own citizenry at will. This must end.
Americans have spoken. About a month ago the American Conservative Union (ACU) asked McLaughlin and Associates to conduct a comprehensive survey on privacy and free speech.
This was long before the IRS Director of Exempt Organizations Louis Lerner publicly acknowledged that they were targeting conservative organizations for special scrutiny during the application process.
We can only imagine how the responses from our April survey would look now, after the revelations about the IRS and AP scandals.
ACU's national poll of 600 voters on April 4 showed that 99% of all Americans supported free speech and the right to privacy which were so blatantly violated by the IRS for conservatives, tea parties and religious groups. Those polled were a representative sample of national ideological and partisan demographics, with more Democrats than Republicans participating and more moderates and liberals combined than conservatives.
The survey found that 89% "approved protecting the rights of privacy of American citizens to speak out on issues without fear of reprisal or retribution from anyone, including those in government, the media, their employers or opposing issue advocacy groups."
Similarly, 86% agreed that "private American citizens have a right to privacy when they support any issue advocacy groups." And 86% agreed that "American citizens have a right to privacy when they support independent issue groups."
Two thirds of all voters already believe that our individual freedoms are threatened by Washington. A whopping 68% agree that "our current individual freedoms are being threatened by more federal government regulations from Washington." Only 27% disagree.
Six in ten voters say making their donations public would deter them from contributing to issue causes. Fifty-nine percent of all voters said yes to the question "if they knew that any contribution you gave to any cause such as Planned Parenthood, the NRA, Greenpeace, the NAACP etc, was publicly available for anyone to see at any time, would it deter you from contributing to such causes." Only 33% said no.
Specifically regarding President Obama, most voters already view him as wanting to limit free speech. Before the IRS targeting of conservatives, tea parties and religious groups, the majority of voters agreed 50% to 44% that "Barack Obama's administration has shown a pattern of attempting to limit free speech and take away your personal rights."
Surprisingly, the majority of voters in our April survey also thought that the Obama administration was trying to discourage political opposition.
Fifty-two percent of all voters agreed that "by pushing for the disclosure of donors to non-profit groups that advocate on issues of public concern and causes, such as the environment, education and the economy, the Obama administration is merely seeking to discourage support of positions that are not politically correct or that people may be uncomfortable having disclosed to the public at large." Only 32% disagreed.
A plurality of voters are already suspect of their elected leaders' motives as simply trying to silence their critics. Forty-four percent agreed that "politicians want to require the public release of any American who gives money to any issue or cause so that they can see who opposes them and take measures to silence their critics." Only 43% disagreed, but imagine what that result would be today!
Bottom line is that the vast majority of Americans support protections for free speech and privacy, which are quickly being chipped away. As we see how deep and widespread this problem is -- I suggest that the only solution is to shrink the size and scope of government.
First we need to overhaul the tax code and the IRS and ensure that privacy and free speech are protected. But we also need to look at what other bureaucracies are too big, too powerful and have become a threat to the individual liberty of law abiding American citizens.
America is an exceptional nation because it was founded on the idea that government is the servant of the people and not its master. We must redouble our efforts to rein in government, because we are the ultimate check on its power.
Because let's be honest – if the government has the power to go after and attempt to silence one group of people, why would it just stop there? Who else could it target?
Al Cardenas is chairman of the American Conservative Union.

I've had my iPad 2 since late May, and I really love it! The more I play with it, the more I find I can do with it.
Last night, at my fiber therapy group, my friend Taya was showing off some of the pictures that she has taken with her iPad. The camera is something that I truly haven't used much. I mean, I know that it has one; but I have a really nice camera that I use for just about everything. When I'm not using that, I take pictures with my iPhone. It never occurred to me to even bother with the camera on the iPad.
Silly me! Taya has inspired me to play with the iPad camera some more. This picture was taken with Photo Booth. What a fun way to photograph yarn!

Flesh the feeble flesh confines the pain and soul
Vault in which, the earthly way, I bear
Earth Love my denial
Tears as a gift upon my mirror
Bright... The pureness of the unperpetual
The meaningless heat of flesh, I ignore
Reflection of betrayal
Fear as a gift, a creeping splendour
Flows of ecstasies within the succubus
The carnal healings of the soul
Earthly form of illusion
Flesh, my desires a living radiance
Must of ecstasies the mankind's incubus
The carnal addictions of the soul
Concrete form of sorrow
Impure malignant indignation
In my dreams, earthly love seems so bright
I my nights, earthly love I deny
Earthly love... Carnal bliss
Which I'll have inside of me until my end.
[repeat 1st verse]
Earthly love... Carnal bliss
Which I'll have inside of me till my end.

It was Tuesday again, and the six of them were sitting around the breakfast table trying to explain what made their Tuesdays so special. But clearly one of them had gone on too long.
``Bob . . .,`` Milt Rotenberg said, putting his hand out and trying, in vain, to interrupt. ``Hey, Bob . . .``
``Pardon us, Bob . . .,`` Joe Simon said.
But Bob Shanker was on a roll, and Simon and Rotenberg exchanged frustrated glances. George Spector decided to give it a go.
``Bob!`` he said.
``What?`` Shanker said.
Shanker, who was standing up by now and had moved to a place at the head of the table, had spent the past few minutes reeling off a litany of the places where they, the Tuesday Club, had been.
The banana plantation in Boca Raton.
The Speckled Bass Festival in Okeechobee.
The baseball and basketball halls of fame.
Down in the submarine in Connecticut, of course. And up in the Goodyear Blimp.
They went to Metrozoo. The Everglades. A farm in Homestead. Three Florida murder trials. The Norton Gallery. Cape Canaveral. And, well, they went to the nude beach in North Kingston, R.I.
``But these five men refused to take their clothes off,`` Shanker said, nodding toward the others as he got his final words in. And then, once again, the Tuesday Club laughed out loud.
``You know what this does? This keeps us young,`` Simon said.
That morning the club was having breakfast at Off Broadway restaurant in Boca Raton before heading to Miami to visit the Coral Museum.
It was to be one of their more tranquil Tuesdays.
According to Rotenberg, the Tuesday Club started five years ago when he, Simon and Shanker retired from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. in Boston and started looking for things to fill their time.

Creating Aria Dream Bedroom
Aria was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia when she was only three years old. Every parent would feel so lost and devastated for this, but their little Aria is a true fighter. Children don't seem to care too much about sickness; just like any other normal child, they just want to have fun and enjoy each moment of their lives. And that is what Aria does.
This cute girl went into remission after intense chemotherapy treatments and daily doses of medication.
Aria spent a lot of time resting in her bed, and throughout the ordeal, she always dreamed of a bedroom makeover. Well, her dream came true when Coldwell Banker teamed up with Special Spaces. This team, all together, made the cutest and most amazing bedroom makeover ever!
They aim to give children who face life-threatening illnesses a chance to design and create their dream bedroom. And wow, they just did a wonderful work! Look at Aria's reaction when she see her new own space… the lovely girl screams and laughs, and giggles, full of excitement. We can really notice how thrilled she is. And also her parents are, too.
We really hope Aria recovers totally, and live so many years more to enjoy her new pink bedroom!

DEAR DOROTHY: This year the Magnolia Avenue Grille opened in Daytona Beach. The food is excellent; the salad bar with its green salads and a regional salad and dressing plus delicious fresh fruit is terrific, and the extras with the meal make the dining almost a ''10.'' We also love the Chestnut Shrimp and would love to have this recipe.
Mildred Cohl
DEAR MILDRED: Chestnut Shrimp was ''dreamed up'' by host-owner Jim Galbreath when he opened the Magnolia Avenue Grille in the restored site of what had been Johnston's Coffee Shop from the '30s through the '60s. He wanted to duplicate the Chestnut Shrimp on Johnston's menu, but when the original could not be located Galbreath came up with his own version. It is so simple -- and so popular. He has heretofore refused customer requests for the recipe, but does generously share it with Thought. Galbreath, who also owns Aunt Catfish's on the River in Port Orange and Ormond Beach and formerly owned Capt. Appleby's in Mount Dora, opened Magnolia Avenue Grille this past March. The restaurant, 200 Magnolia Avenue in Daytona Beach, is open from 11:30 a.m. until 9:30 p.m. Sundays through Fridays and from 5 until 9:30 p.m. Saturdays. CHESTNUT SHRIMP (MAGNOLIA AVENUE GRILL)

Ashem Vohu
This ninth- or 10th-century Sogdian manuscript from Dunhuang, China, contains a version of one of the holiest Zoroastrian prayers: the Ashem Vohu, composed originally in the Avestan (old Iranian) language.
Enlarged image Zoomable high-resolution image
Zoroastrian prayer, the Ashem Vohu
British Library Or. 8212/84 (Ch.00289)
Copyright © The British Library Board
What is Zoroastrianism?
Zoroastrianism, the religion of the ancient Iranians, is named after Zarathushtra (Zoroaster in Greek sources) whose songs (Gathas) are thought to have been composed 1500-1000 BC. Zoroastrianism teaches the importance of good thoughts, words, and actions, in a world where the forces of the all-knowing lord, Ahura Mazda, are constantly opposed by those of the evil spirit, Angra Mainyu.
Originating in Central Asia, Zoroastrianism spread to Iran where it was the religion of the Achaemenid kings (550-330 BC) and their successors until the Arab conquest in the mid-seventh century AD. In Central Asia, Zoroastrianism continued alongside Buddhism, Manichaeism and Christianity until finally supplanted by Islam between the eighth and 10th centuries. In South Asia, Zoroastrian refugees from Iran settled in Gujarat, India, in the 10th century, and from there Parsi 'Persian' diaspora communities became established worldwide.
What are the Avesta?
The oldest Zoroastrian scriptures are referred to as the Avesta or Zend Avesta. The Avesta contains the sacred texts in the Avestan language, whereas the Zend refers to their translations and explanations in Pahlavi, the language of Sasanian Iran (c. 224-651 AD). The Avestan language was probably spoken from the second millennium until the first half of the first millennium BC, but the Avestan scriptures, unlike the Old Testament and the Qur'an, were transmitted orally and were not written down in the form in which they are preserved today – until many centuries later in Iran, in late Sasanian times, when the oral tradition could no longer be completely relied upon
Zoroastrianism in Central Asia
Our knowledge of Zoroastrianism comes mainly from Iran and India where it continued to be a living religion. Since it was an essentially oral religion, comparatively little is known about Zoroastrianism in Central Asia, its original homeland. Traces can be found in the Middle Iranian Central Asian languages of Sogdian, Bactrian and Khotanese - where, for example, Ahura Mazda survives as urmaysde, 'sun' in Khotanese, and the day-names in Sogdian and Bactrian are those of the Zoroastrian calendar.
The most extensive evidence, however, comes from archaeological discoveries. Excavations at Sogdian cities such as Panjikent have revealed frescoes portraying gods and scenes of worship. More recently several sixth-century funerary monuments of wealthy Sogdian traders from Central China have come to light depicting specifically Zoroastrian scenes. For example, the priest wearing the padam (the white mask that Zoroastrian priests wear so as not to defile the sacred flame), with attendant dog before a fire altar, and deceased souls crossing the Chinvat Bridge to the next life.
Who were the Sogdians?
The Sogdians lived in the area around Samarkand in modern Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Sogdiana is first mentioned in the Avesta as one of the Zoroastrian lands of eastern Iran , and in Old Persian cuneiform inscriptions as a province of the Achaemenid empire. By the early fourth century AD the Sogdians were well established as traders travelling the length of the Silk Road as far East as the Chinese capital, Luoyang. Their commodities included gold, silver, camphor, pepper, musk, wheat, silk, and other kinds of cloth. Sogdian communities developed at staging posts along the trade route, and in Dunhuang, where this manuscript was found, there is written evidence as early as the fourth century for a Zoroastrian temple, which was still flourishing in the early 10th century. The Sogdian language died out some time after the 10th century AD, but a related dialect, Yagnobi, still survives as a minority language spoken in the Yagnob valley north of Dushanbe, Tajikistan.
Why is this manuscript so important?
It is the oldest existing copy of a Zoroastrian scripture, written in Central Asia more than 300 years before any other surviving manuscript. All the others, such as the Avestan law book, the Videvdad, come from Iran and India and date from the end of the 13th century.
This short fragment contains one of the very few Sogdian texts which are wholly Zoroastrian in content. The main part, written in normal Sogdian of about the ninth century, describes Zoroaster addressing an unnamed 'supreme god.' However, the true significance lies in the first two lines which appear to be a transcription in Sogdian script of one of the holiest Zoroastrian prayers, the Avestan Ashem Vohu , written more than 300 years earlier than any surviving Avestan manuscript.
Whether the text here represents the contemporary Dunhuang pronunciation of the prayer transcribed by someone who did not understand Avestan, or whether it was copied from some older transcription or translation is unclear, but the language seems to preserve features noticeably different from the Avesta as we otherwise know it while at the same time it is substantially different from standard Sogdian.
For example, the word for 'truth' is represented neither by Avestan ashem, nor by a Sogdian equivalent such as *rtu or reshtyak, but by -rtm, a spelling which represents a form identical with Achaemenid Old Persian *rtam.
How was the manuscript discovered?
This manuscript was one of 40,000 or so books and manuscripts hidden in one of the 'Caves of a Thousand Buddhas' – a cliff wall near the city of Dunhuang honeycombed with 492 grottoes cut from the rock from the fourth century onwards and decorated with religious carvings and paintings. The secret library was sealed up at the beginning of the 11th century, probably under threat from the Karakhanids who had taken Khotan in 1006.
The cave was discovered in 1900 by the Daoist monk Wang Yuanlu who presented manuscripts and paintings to local officials, hoping in return for financial support to pay for conservation work. When the archaeologist and explorer Aurel Stein arrived there in 1907, Wang Yuanlu sold him large numbers of manuscripts and paintings which are now in the British Library, the British Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the National Museum Delhi. For more details see our feature on the Silk Road.
What does this fragment show?
This manuscript fragment appears to be the top 10 lines of a scroll. Traces of where the next sheet was attached are still visible at the bottom. The text has been written with some care in a large and calligraphic hand, with a ruled margin on the right hand side. To judge from the paper and style of calligraphy, our scribe may also have copied another similar Sogdian fragment preserved in the British Library which tells the story of the Iranian national hero Rustam.

We ship factory direct and can only estimate the length of time that it will take for your item to ship out. The normal ship-time before each item leaves the factory is indicated in the blue box.
Quick Ship options, such as select color choices, are available on some items and those options and their ship times will be listed in a red box above the normal ship time. If you do not see a red box, then there are no Quick Ship options for that item.
You may have multiple shipments to complete your order as each item has varying lead times and may be shipping from multiple factories.
Summer months (June through September) are especially busy due to the back-to-school season. Please expect that the listed ship times may be extended and plan ahead.
Contact us if you are concerned about your deadline and our team will confirm product availability with the factory and/or suggest a faster solution. We do our best to provide accurate ship times, but we cannot guarantee any delivery date.
See our Quick Ship section for items that we trust to have the fastest ship times, some even as fast as 24 Hours!
