About the project "365 days in a city."
A conceptual photojournalistic project about everyday life in the richest city in the richest country in the world. (According to the UN) Wealth in Norway is not always noticeable, as most Norwegians don't like to flash their economical status. Norway's high standard of living is also based more on its well developed social system than individual wealth.
My aim was to capture life in the city as varied as I could without arranging anything. I never used flash, or arranged artificial lighting as I wanted to be as honest to my subjects as possible. Almost every image was carefully planned.
This project differs from most other photo books as I was limited to choosing one photograph a day. I could not arrange them in themes and had to place them in the order they were taken. I also had to use several photographic genres to capture life and death and everything in between.
Earlier, when working with personal projects, I have had a feeling of complete freedom. The moment I started this project I was bound by the guidelines I had set, and the only option was abandoning the project alltogether. The pressure I felt during the whole project was greater then I had imagined. I knew I could become sick, and I had to make sure that there was no card or computer error every day. I was constantly asking myself if the images I took were good enough for a photo book. There was rarely any satisfaction in a good picture as I immediately started to think of the next day. If tomorrow failed it wouldn't matter if today was great. Every image was as important as the other, good or bad. The deeper I got into the project, the tougher the thought of failure became. Not only for my own sake, but also for all the people I had photographed or those that had helped me enthusiastically behind the scenes.
Wars, famine, natural disasters are well covered within todays photojournalism. I think it's also important to document every day life in a peaceful place which in the world today can be considered the abnormal. This project is completed without any external funding of any kind.
Alf Ove Hansen has been working as a photojournalist for the ScanpixNTB photo agency and the major national newspapers in Norway since 1992.

text: I look forward to future comics and hope they keep coming. I feel like there are many unanswered questions and stories left open. Zuko dealt with much unrest during his early rule, how does he combat this? Also we know he eventually has a daughter (thanks to Legend of Korra) but who is the mother? Would he have to marry for his daughter to have a claim to the throne? I liked Smoke and Shadow because it gave us a look into the Fire Nation and the unrest that plagued Zuko, but it left many more questions.

Most companies provide a free home kit for you to provide the samples and require you to send the kit back to the laboratory with the accompanying fee. Because many companies are aware of the discomfort of drawing blood from a child in order to get a sample, buccal (mouth) swabs are being accepted as an alternative. By gently massaging the inside of the child's mouth, cheek cells are collected. These cells are then sent to the lab for testing. [more...]

There are a number of companies that have recently launched competing technology platforms that are capable of sequencing DNA at the single molecule level. You may ask, why? Well, the answer is simply cost-effectiveness. DNA sequencing technology has been around for several decades, and to date, the Human Genome Project (HGP) is considered the pinnacle application of that technology. The cost of the HGP was approximately $3 billion and took about a decade and half. It was the molecular biology equivalent of putting a man on the moon. But what is the next step?

Congresswoman Lee Applauds 9th Circuit Decision on Trump Executive Order
Washington, DC — Congresswoman Barbara Lee released the following statement in response to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals upholding the suspension of the Trump administration's Muslim Ban:
"People across the country have come together to reject and resist the Trump Administration's hateful, xenophobic executive orders – and now the courts have affirmed the resistance. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals' decision to sustain the stay on the executive order is in line with our American values, constitutional protections, and national security interests.
"President Trump's Muslim ban betrays our national principles and undermines our standing in the world. As a proud nation of immigrants, we cannot and will not turn our backs on refugees fleeing violence and oppression. I applaud the 9th Circuit for sending a clear message today: in America, refugees are welcome."

Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful precious baby!
We want to commend you on your decision to provide the optimal food for your newborn baby. Mammals all have species specific food with the suitable ingredients and nutrients for their offspring. Humans are no exception to the rule!
Infants who do not get the colostrum (first early breastmilk) do not get the immunological and nutritional benefits they are meant to receive. Without this protection against pathogens and bacteria these infants are more likely to suffer from potentially dangerous infections and diseases.
Breastfeeding is also crucial for bonding and nurturing. The 'love' hormone, Oxytocin is released when mums breastfeed their baby. This hormone relaxes mum giving her a feeling of euphoria thus increasing her attachment and bonding experience with her precious newborn baby.
Be Prepared
Breastfeeding is a natural, beautiful way to bond and provide for your infant, but not everything that is natural comes easy. Over 95% of women go through their pregnancy with a desire to breastfeed and six weeks later the percentage of mums still breastfeeding has significantly reduced. Don't be a statistic. We can provide small antenatal breastfeeding classes and individual breastfeeding education by an experienced lactation consultant. You are not alone in this journey from womanhood to motherhood. In-home consultations are available to help you once baby has arrived. Get breastfeeding off to a good start and reap the benefits for a lifetime for both you and your precious baby!
Why Breastfeed?
Your body has been preparing for breastfeeding all through your pregnancy. Evidence has shown that breastfeeding is highly beneficial for you and your baby. By breastfeeding you are being the best you can for yourself, your baby and the environment! Support from Adelaide Lactation Consultants can help you achieve the best start.
Best for Baby
Formula-fed babies are at an increased risk for the following:
- Necrotizing enterocolitis
- Gastroenteritis
- Allergies
- Obesity
- Respiratory diseases/Asthma
- Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)
- Lymphomas/Hodgkin's disease
- Type-1 Diabetes
- Ear infections
- Breast cancer
- GORD (reflux)
- Urinary tract infections
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Lower IQ
- Diarrhea
Best for Mum
Mums who do not breastfeed increase their risk of:
- Osteoporosis
- Postpartum hemorrhage
- Postmenopausal breast cancer/Ovarian/Endometrial Cancer
- Cardiovascular disease
- Excessive weight gain
- Ovarian cancer
- Postnatal depression
- Closely spaced unplanned pregnancy
- Increased insulin for diabetic mothers
- Diabetes

This should be fun.
I wonder how this news attracted your attention...
Warning: Spoilers inside!
You weren't searching for your father again were you???
Does Samsung work for Fulcrum?!?! They haven't captured your father again have they chuck... NOOOOOO!!!
I guess you, Sarah and Casey will be off on another mission soon hey, if Fulcrum manages to build their own intersect we are all doomed..
having FULL HD playback on my phone ?
Overkill ? :/
Warning: Spoilers inside!
You haven't been keeping up on my story have you... its... its too soon.... its a lot worse than that....
/off topic-ness.
Back on topic, i cant imagine the power requirements here.
right thats the issue, you can throw a quad core in there if you want to, but you will need a small nuclear reactor in your pocket.
Sounds good. I wonder how much more battery life this will suck up though. Something that's important on a mobile device.
I read another article saying (iirc) that it uses less power than current hummingbird (although i'd guess thats probably with only 1 core running).
There is a rumour that this might be used for the Samsung galaxy S 2, which would be pretty sweet hehe (although I love my original SGS )
not really.
would be nice if you can actually play back your 1080p HD vacation recordings on your fancy flatscreen by just plugging your phone into your TV

All new releases will be 99 cents for just the first few days. If you want to know the release schedule (so far) you can check it out here and sign up for our newsletter so you get an email when each new early-bird price special goes live: http://moirarogers.com/coming-soon/
Today, however, we have THREE!
Click on the covers to read the blurbs & get purchase info!
We're also celebrating the new release with a cover reveal of all six of the Southern Arcana covers over at Fiction Vixen. They were some of the first bloggers who supported the series back in the distant past (2009 seems like a very long time ago!) so we appreciate coming full circle with them. (Plus there's a free kindle! Giveaway! Kindle giveaway! Hooray!)

Location: Costa de Oro, Costa Rica
Word of the day: Vómito - Vomit
Turtle Fact: The Endangered Species Act, 1973 (ESA). • The Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) is administered by the U.S. Departments of Interior and Commerce. It seeks to stop the extinction of wild animals and plants in the United States, other nations, and at sea. All sea turtles except the flatback are listed as threatened or endangered on the U.S. Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants List. It is illegal to harm, or in any way interfere with, a sea turtle or its eggs.
We head out from the "fishing docks" and go straight several kilometers, parallel to the actual point (landmass protruding into the Pacific Ocean). Being forewarned that the nets are most likely tangled, Eric and I throw out the two nests (connected) into the water. These nets are very similair (if not the same) to the turtle nets that Widecast used when we searched for sea turtles on their boat. Essentially it's very large loose netting that is draped from the surface several meters down with weights. Once turtles are caught they are still able to reach the surface for air (which most all other actual fishing nets lack). Knowing and seeing that this net is tangled and now in the water, Eric, Courtney and gear up with fins, mask and snorkel and attempt to untangle the weaving pile of string and knots. I get dropped off at one end, while Courtney and Eric tackle the other. As we bob in the less than choppy water, we find it increasingly more difficult to fix the next as the current keeps moving us to and fro and the weights in the net bouncing vertically in the depths prevents the slack needed to untangle to ropes. After a solid half an hour of attempting to make this work, we retire back to the boat. Feeling less than average I begin the process of concentrating on the Horizon...
We drive around in the boat for the next 1/2 hour, before returning back to the net finding that it was undisturbed. We sit around for a bit longer. Utilizing our time one the boat, we pull out the GPS/Finder in hopes to finally figure this out (@BadLifeDecision). However after setting it up and turning it on, I come to realize something has awry. Further investigating it appears a rat ate through part of the wire. I guess he was trying to satisfy an appetite for technology as well.
Throw up. Large waves, small breakfast and small screen with small fonts did not mix well. I must say though... I did it with much poise.
As we lift anchor and head back to withdraw our net, we notice a turtle in our net! This trip was not a complete fail! The captain slowly pulls the boat up to the net and Eric pull the boat along the net until we reach the turtle. As it were a smaller/adolescent Green Sea turtle, Erick reaches over and picks it up out of the water as I untangle her from the net. We capture some data and tag her flippers before returning her back into the water. Success. We bring in the rest of the nests and head back to the docks.
Back at the Costa de Oro House, we prepare lunch (rice and clams). Resting from this mornings adventure I enjoy a small siesta in the hammock. When I awake, I see that Ingrid and Ever (Friend of Ingrid and newest volunteer) have arrived and will be joining us for the next couple of days, assisting us with patrols. Dinner.
I cook a whole raw chicken in the crock pot and end up shredding it, like I have done in the past. Along with rice, we have Chicken sandwiches. Making the most of our resources I use the remainder of the chicken for stock.
Ht.com updates. Siesta.
3am I wake up for patrol, eat some cereal and head out on the beach for a solo walk along the beach by 3:30am. Almost immediately I come across a turtle coming up on the beach just 4 sectors (400m) North of our house. Awesome. We spend some quality time together and enjoy the sunrise. I gather the 96 eggs and finish patrol. Sleep/Siesta.
- It's not about how big the waves are, but the motion in the ocean
- Iced cream was made to cure all
Food: Trit's Icecream sandwich
Animals: Crabs, Dogs, Birds, Lizards, Mosquitoes
Something I am thankful for: Sunrise. What a great way to start your day. Granted it means your probably going to tired earlier than usual, but it sort of like a new pair of socks. It does the same things as a sock that has been worn, or an afternoon sun, but it just feels better.
Something I don't want to admit:
I had feeling I was going to get sick even before getting on the boat. Sometimes you just have to accept your future. I did.

The biggest nature restoration project in Denmark.
All the work of trying to bring Filsø back to something reminiscent of the size of the past is, at last, close to an end.
The recreation of Filsø in western Jutland is the biggest restoration project in Denmark. The old dikes have been removed, four great bird islands have been established and the lake area is rapidly filling with water.
Originally Filsø was the second largest lake in Denmark with a size of more than 2000 hectares, but twice has the lake been drained and reduced considerably in size. The new owner of Filsø, Aage V. Jensen Nature Fond, decided to do something about this, and through a grand project the area will be transformed to a lake of 900 hectares and 300 hectares of meadows, grass fields and marshes.
Filsø was officially opened in October 2012.

Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Now back on active duty, Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) disagrees with Detective Walker (Robert Breuler) over the guilt of a robbery-homicide suspect -- but uncharacteristically keeps his mouth shut. Though no longer moonlighting as the bodyguard of wealthy Susan Wagner (Wendie Malick), Kelly (David Caruso) nonetheless issues a harsh warning to Susan's abusive husband -- who subsequently turns up dead. Kelly's estranged wife, Laura (Sherry Stringfield), prepares to join the narcotics division of the DA's office. And Laura's neighbor Goldstein (David Schwimmer), now a neighborhood hero for his shooting of a mugger, becomes increasingly, and dangerously, paranoid.

"Are you going up to see the eolipse?" "I'to not going to bed 'till after we come backi" and similar questions and exclaiwations wore expressed.
The bell which usually comr;iands absolute silence could not quite stiffle a low hum of conversation and an occasional ripple of laughter.

No Doubt star Tony Kanal has personally appealed to an aquarium boss in Canada to ban rowdy parties at the venue after learning loud noises can be painful for sound-sensitive marine animals.
The rocker recently sent a letter to Jim Pattison, the managing director of Toronto's Ripley's Aquarium of Canada, on behalf of activists at the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to raise concerns about the treatment of whales and dolphins in the center, which is currently under construction.
In the note, he writes, "The UN (United Nations) wildlife panel and this new NRDC (Natural Resources Defense Council) study reveal that loud noise is torturous for sound-sensitive marine animals like whales and dolphins, whose communication and environment are shaped by their sonar sense...
"The pounding vibrations from amplified music played at parties that some aquariums have begun to host bounce off the tank walls and cause these animals great stress, even death...
"As a musician, the effect of sound on all living beings is something with which I am very familiar... Does the Toronto Aquarium intend to display sound-sensitive dolphins or whales, and if so, are there plans to host loud parties?"
Kanal received a reply soon after sending the message on 20 September (12), and was assured by Pattison that he had nothing to worry about.
The response reads: "We share your concerns regarding loud noises on marine mammals in both the wild as well as in marine facilities. I would like to inform you that we will not be holding marine mammals in our aquarium."
Kanal isn't the only rocker to express fears over the musical torture of marine life - Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee has become embroiled in a verbal war with SeaWorld theme park bosses in San Diego, California after he asked them not to use his band's songs during their Shamu Rocks killer whale shows.

Monday, May 16I Am The Treasurer - Part 1 Of 3.
A little over three years ago, the Missus and I bought our first home (thanks to you), a suburban condo in the hills of beautiful Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. We went the condo route as a means of compromise; we wanted to own a home, but had little interest in yard work or gardening. A few phone calls and multiple bankruptcies later, it was all ours.
What I didn't realize at the time was that, as condo owners, we had to pay other people to handle all that icky outside stuff we didn't want to be burdened with. To the tune of $125 a month, each of the 24 condominiums on our street had to chip in for things like roof repair, snow shoveling, snow repair and roof shoveling. Furthermore, I also had no idea that us 24 condo owners acted as a self-elected government, writing checks, drafting bylaws and fining jackasses for being noisy. Almost a full year after purchasing a condo, I finally became aware of the mythical thing known as the Condo Association.
In the past, I never attended the meetings. I always figured these Town Hall affairs were nothing more than a soapbox for the loudest neighbor to bitch about dog poop and rainwater drainage. I was a good homeowner. I paid my fees on time, kept the place clean and approachable, and kept the orgies to an absolute minimum. My opinion and attendance was not necessary. Then I got an e-mail.
Apparently, every self-governing Condo Association needs an elected President, Vice-President and Secretary/Treasurer to make sure that everything is paid, balanced and handled. If a minimum of three people cannot be scrapped together, then we would legally need to hire an outside agency to handle our affairs for us, to the tune of…slightly more than the $125 a month we already paid for the luxury to do it ourselves. We were all going to meet to discuss it (in the cafeteria of the local middle school), and see if we couldn't rally enough troops to stay sovereign and DIY. This was a cause I could get behind.
Sitting amongst the 23 other homeowners at this meeting was, for the most part, the first time I ever really saw who my neighbors were. As you would assume, I'm not a very neighborly, social man. Don't get me wrong, I'll say hello to you if I happen to run into you when grabbing the mail or taking out the recycling, but you generally won't see the Missus and I sitting in the lawn or hosting block parties. We're not that sort of folk. Nonetheless, everyone in our Association seemed perfectly coherent, bipedal and willing to step up to the responsibility of keeping our street vibrant and self-sufficient.
Well, okay. Nobody wanted to do anything. The current Secretary/Treasurer and President were both resigning; the first due to personal circumstances he was unwilling to elaborate on, and the second because he was an asshole and nobody liked him (I was told this by no less than three different families). This left us with no members (we were operating without a Vice-President, which was already illegal), and no hands being raised when the time came to look for volunteers.
I could understand. We were all busy. We all had pending responsibilities. Morale was low. Finances were even lower. We all loved our street and our homes, but who among us had enough time in the day to devote to an unpaid, unappreciated task that hardly anyone knew about? Who was psychotic enough to become the sole point-of-contact for every complaint, superficial repair and dues check? Who had their life so completely in order that they willingly accepted another thankless chore?
"Whoever takes the Secretary/Treasurer job doesn't have to pay the $125 a month in condo fees," said the outgoing President.
"I'll take it!" I bellowed, practically leaping out of my seat. I sounded like Sideshow Mel; I even think my finger was pointed toward the heavens as I announced my eligibility.
Oh no, dude. No...
I did that for a couple of years at our homeowner's association in Zionsville. Pain high. Gain...low.
I did that for a couple of years at our homeowner's association in Zionsville. Pain high. Gain...low.
Thankfully our condo association is pretty much non-existent. No one really complains excet the old president, and he's moving out. Yeeha!<< Home

Just because you're lost in the desert doesn't mean that you have to die.
Deserts — both literal and figurative — can be pretty desperate places. And in the midst of a difficult situation, it's easy to lose hope. But no matter how desperate the situation, hope remains: God is our provider, and His perfect provision is enough to sustain us through the most trying of times.
Last time, we looked at the story of the Israelites wandering the desert, and saw how their hunger made them long for the days of slavery. Today, we're going to continue studying the story of manna and quail, and see how God's hand of provision is with us even in the midst of very difficult circumstances.
This story comes from Exodus 16. After generations of slavery in Egypt, the Israelites have cried out to God, who in turn did many miraculous things to rescue them from their Egyptian oppressors. Now in the desert, far from the comforts of civilization, they cry out again, this time for food to eat. God hears them, and His response teaches us a lot about the perfection of His provision.
Let's examine a passage from verses 11-17. It's a bit long, but worth the read:
11 The Lord said to Moses, 12 "I have heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell them, 'At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God.'"
13 That evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. 14 When the dew was gone, thin flakes like frost on the ground appeared on the desert floor. 15 When the Israelites saw it, they said to each other, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was.
Moses said to them, "It is the bread the Lord has given you to eat. 16 This is what the Lord has commanded: 'Everyone is to gather as much as they need. Take an omer for each person you have in your tent.'"
17 The Israelites did as they were told; some gathered much, some little. 18 And when they measured it by the omer, the one who gathered much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little. Everyone had gathered just as much as they needed.
This story tells us about the beginning of God's provision for the Israelites while they were in the desert. He used manna and quail to provide for their physical needs for 40 years, until they took possession of the promise land.
This story is not just a footnote in the history of Israel; rather, it's an instructive example for us today as well. We can learn a lot about God's provision for us by studying the way He provided for the people of Israel. To explore that, we're going to examine the five classic W's of God's provision: Who, What, Where, When and Why.
1) Who provided, and for whom?
This answer is easy enough: We know that God provided, and it was the Israelites that He provided for. The take-away is also simple, yet profoundly comforting. In the end, no matter what we're facing, God is always our provider. He owns everything, and He gives us everything that we need. No matter where we are or what we face, we can count on Him to take care of us, because He is a good, loving father.
2) What did God provide?
God provided two things for the people: quail (a game bird that they would have been familiar with) and manna (a supernatural bread that they had never seen before). This teaches us that God can meet our needs in a number of ways. Sometimes the things He uses are like the quail — ordinary and familiar. (They can become so familiar, in fact, that we forget that they come from God.) Other times, He uses manna — provision that is entirely unexpected, supernatural and out-of-the-blue. When God creates a solution to your problem that you never could have imagined for yourself, that's a manna moment.
This is also a good point to talk about the quantity of what God provides. It is never too little and never too much. Verse 18 says "And when they measured it by the omer, the one who gathered much did not have too much, and the one who gathered little did not have too little. Everyone had gathered just as much as they needed." God knows our needs perfectly — even better than we do — and provides exactly the right amount to meet them.
3) Where did God provide?
God didn't provide food for the Israelites in a farm or a grocery store — He provided for them in the desert. The desert is a fierce, foreboding place that is not suitable for human survival. But in providing food for His people there, God shows His power: There is no circumstance too desperate for God to come through. No matter what you face in life, or how long your string of bad luck, you are never out of His reach.
4) When did God provide?
God didn't airlift one giant supply of dried food to accompany the Israelites along their journey in the desert: Instead, He provided what they needed on a daily and nightly basis. Sometimes we tend to ask God for one big miracle to help us through a difficult time. Often, though, He provides not through a monumental manifestation, but by giving us just what we need to get through the day. This teaches us to depend on Him for everything, every day. His mercies are new every morning, and so is His provision. Jesus refers to this in the Lord's prayer, when He teaches us to ask each day for our "daily bread."
5) Why did God provide?
This one may be my very favorite. God provided for the people in order to keep them alive, to be sure. But there was also a greater purpose to His provision — He wanted the people to recognize Him as God. Look at verse 12: "At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God." By providing for us, God meets our needs, and also reveals Himself to us. It is because of His provision that we know that He exists, and that He loves us.
If you're struggling with finances — walking through your own desert — take heart. God is faithful and powerful to provide. Trust Him, obey Him, and He will not let you down.
