UPDATE: Sarah Palin posted the following message about "Stars Earn Stripes" to her Facebook page:
"Stars Earns Stripes" is honoring our veterans and first responders who are fighting to protect the good guys every day! Todd was privileged to work with an amazing team of production experts, competitors, and patriots in this absolutely kick-butt show that airs after the Olympics. It will blow you away as you witness what our troops and first responders go through.
I don't know if I've ever met such a genuine, dedicated, and hardcore self-disciplined group of "stars" and operatives. This show can change your life if you understand the discipline and dedication our troops and first responders go through in order to bring honor to this great nation and then apply that same courage and discipline to your own life.
"Stars Earn Stripes"...wimps need not apply! :)
Todd Palin will be part of "Stars Earn Stripes". a reality television show where stars will compete to earn cash prizes on behalf of a military, veterans or first-responder charity. "Stars Earn Stripes" will premiere on Monday, August 13th at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.
From the NBC website:
Hosted by General Wesley Clark (retired) and Samantha Harris, "Stars Earn Stripes" is an action-packed competition show that pays homage to the men and women who serve in the U.S. Armed Forces and our first-responder services. The star-studded cast includes four-time undefeated world boxing champion Laila Ali, actor Dean Cain ("Out of Time," Five Days of War"), actor and former National Football League player Terry Crews ("The Expendables 2," "The Newsroom"), multi-platinum recording artist, actor, producer and television personality Nick Lachey (NBC's "The Sing-Off"), Alaska businessman and four-time Iron Dog snowmobile race champion Todd Palin, "The Biggest Loser" trainer Dolvett Quince, Olympic gold medalist Picabo Street, and WWE Diva, Eve Torres.
The eight celebrities will gather at a remote training facility, where they will be challenged to execute complicated missions inspired by real military exercises. From helicopter drops into water to long-range weapons fire, the contestants will be tested physically, mentally and emotionally. Each will be paired with a special operative from a military branch or one of our first-responder forces, including former U.S. Army Delta Force and Green Berets, U.S. Navy SEALS, U.S. Marines and police officers, who train alongside their partners and compete in the missions with them.

Here's a preview of the show:

Agent detection
Agent detection is the inclination for animals, including humans, to presume the purposeful intervention of a sentient or intelligent agent in situations that may or may not involve one.
Evolutionary origins[edit]
It is believed that humans evolved agent detection as a survival strategy. In situations where one is unsure of the presence of an intelligent agent (such as an enemy or a predator), there is survival value in assuming its presence so that precautions can be taken. For example, if a human came across an indentation in the ground that might be a lion's footprint, it is advantageous to err on the side of caution and assume that the lion is present.[1]
Psychologists Kurt Gray and Daniel Wegner wrote:
" The high cost of failing to detect agents and the low cost of wrongly detecting them has led researchers to suggest that people possess a Hyperactive Agent Detection Device, a cognitive module that readily ascribes events in the environment to the behavior of agents.[2] "
Role in religion[edit]
Some scientists believe that the belief in creator gods is an evolutionary by-product of agent detection.[3] A spandrel is a non-adaptive trait formed as a side effect of an adaptive trait. The psychological trait in question is "if you hear a twig snap in the forest, some sentient force is probably behind it". This trait helps to prevent the primate from being murdered or eaten as food. However this hypothetical trait could remain in modern humans: thus some evolutionary psychologists theorize that "even if the snapping was caused by the wind, modern humans are still inclined to attribute the sound to a sentient agent; they call this person a god".[4]
Gray and Wegner also said that agent detection is likely to be a "foundation for human belief in God" but "simple overattribution of agency cannot entirely account for the belief in God..." because the human ability to form a theory of mind and what they refer to as "existential theory of mind" are also required to "give us the basic cognitive capacity to conceive of God."[2]
According to Justin L. Barrett, having a scientific explanation for mental phenomena does not mean we should stop believing in them. "Suppose science produces a convincing account for why I think my wife loves me — should I then stop believing that she does?"[5]

|2,960 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|5 nights
The villa is actually two houses. One 200 sqm villa with 3 bedrooms (Master-double bed 180x200, Guest1-twin beds 2x80x200, GuestR2-double bed 160x200), 3 bathrooms and one guest house with 2 bedrooms (both with double beds 160x200) and 2 bathrooms. It is located on a little hill just outside Nice, approximately 1 km from the ocean. There is a garden of about 2800 sqm, filled with lemon, orange & grapefruit trees. There is also grapes & fig trees. Both houses are newly renovated and have a very high standard in all materials. There is A/C in all rooms. We have a 46 in LED TV, sound system and pretty much all you could think of. There is a 9x5 m swimming pool with an excellent sea view. A large sun-terrace that is big enough to entertain a lot of people. There is also a Weber gas driven BBQ. Two dish washers, two washing machines, one tumble dryer, two fridges
I live in Sweden, Stockholm with my wife and daughter. Since many years we have found the area around Nice (and the entire French Riviera) to be very pleasant and have returned time after time. Eventually we felt a need of getting our own place.
Mathias Steyskal purchased this villa in 2010
We simply fell in love with the garden. A mature Mediterranean garden with 300 year old olive trees, fully grown palm trees and plenty of fruit trees. It is magical. The house needed quite a bit of work and we have remade everything.
The sunny terrace next to the pool is absolutely marvellous to sit and catch sun and look out over the sea. If you feel in need of some shadow, go and catch it under our more than 300 year old olive tree and think about the fact that it was around at the same time as Napoleon...
Eight of us shared this house for a week. It is well-equipped and very comfortable.
We booked one week but could have stayed for months. A fantastic property which is ideally suited for large families, two smaller families or up to five couples sharing the costs.
You will need a car, as the property is at the top of a long and fairly steep road, but parking on the grounds or immediately outside is not a problem.
As others have already noted, the owner Mathias and the agent Anita are a pleasure to deal with and we would certainly consider booking again next year.
Antibes is only a 30 minute drive away, Nice old town 15 minutes and St.Paul de Vence (an absolute must if you are in the area!) about an hours drive.
Our family spent a wonderful week at Villa four winds. The house is nestled up in the hills surrounding Nice with amazing views of Nice and the sea. The neighborhood is quiet and very scenic. The house was immaculately clean and perfectly appointed with enough plates, cups, silverware etc. for everyone. Nothing looked jaded or tired - this home was very comfortable. The grounds were gorgeous, and we enjoyed making lemonade from the many lemon trees on the property. The gardener turned up twice while we were there and on both occasions brought up some beautiful tomatoes, figs and peppers for us to eat. Anita was very helpful and responsive, and the checkout team were on time and extremely nice. The highlight of the stay however was the pool which kept all of us entertained for hours. It is the perfect size and depth (adults can stand in all places in the pool) for a family group. The sunloungers were also very comfortable. We could not find any beach/pool towels so remember to pack those with you. The kitchen and laundry room were equipped with some of the most up to date machines, including a nespresso machine in the kitchen. We would not hesitate to recommend this house to anyone else. Thank you for letting us stay there.
We had a very pleasant stay at this villa and would happily recommend it to any interested parties. The house is modern, spacious and comfortable. The gardens are well kept and suitable for children. The pool is also a pleasant size and the outside area is complimented by lovely views.
Importantly the owner Mathias is a pleasure to deal with, and his manager Anita was well organised, polite and dealt with any problems efficiently and professionally.
We are already considering a second booking.
Superbe villa identique à la description et les photos.Un cadre idyllique à 15' de la ville avec vue sur mer et calme parfait.Superbe jardin et propriétaire ainsi que sa manager très patients et sympathiques....Bref,vous pouvez la louer les yeux fermés.Un pur bonheur!!!
There are a number of small villages up in the hills. Most of them are spectacular in setting and very picturesque, offering good restaurants and during summer a slightly cooler temperature. There are of course a large number of vineyards just around the corner, at least 15 within 15-20 min drive. And hundreds if you care to drive for an hour or so.
|Cleaning Fee
|Refundable Damage Deposit
Cleaning fee of 450 euros is added on top of the rental amount.
* Approximate monthly price. Actual pricing will depend on the days of the month you stay.

The Butte Sports Hall of Fame welcomed the Class of 2017 on Friday night in a ceremony at the Butte Civic Center.
One of those honored was one of the greatest wrestlers to come out of the mining city. Eric Dunmire starred on the mats for the Bulldogs for four years, winning four straight state wrestling titles from 1995 to 1998. He was the 10th wrestler in state history to go four-for-four, and the first Bulldog to accomplish the feat.
He went an astounding 152-2 for the Bulldogs, never dropping a match to a competitor from the state of Montana. While the accolades sound great, Dunmire says he feels honored to be recognized by his hometown.
"The achievements make me feel very important, make me feel proud to be a Butte boy," Dunmire said. "To be involved and part of such an elite crowd, makes me feel very humble."

I've run my last EMS call.
For a while, at least. A good, long while. I can't say when, if ever, I will put on a uniform shirt again. I'm not sure that I will ever call in service again, or ever step into an ambulance again.
I just can't take it any more. I'm done.
I'm tired of the continued incompetence of my coworkers and colleagues.
I'm tired of having to follow protocols that are written for the lowest common denominator.
I'm tired of stupid policies written by people who have never worked on an ambulance, and policies enforced selectively and for no good reason.
I'm tired of being criticized by management with less experience, and a lower level of certification than myself.
I'm tired of my fellow paramedics harming patients and not facing repercussions, simply because "they show up on time."
I'm tired of shaking my head every time I hear a new story about a new screw up.
Pronouncing people dead without touching them. Defibrillating (repeatedly) a patient in a paced rhythm who is conscious. Giving adenosine to a patient having a STEMI because the paramedic thought atrial fibrillation in the 130s was causing the problem. Giving solu-medrol to patients with pneumonia, and albuterol to patients in CHF. Giving mag sulfate to a dialysis patient having a mild asthma attack. Refusing to honor a valid, presented DNR in the presence of a family because "I think I can save him."
I'm just so damned tired.
I love my job, I love my patients (mostly), and I love my partner. But I can't do this any more.
I realize that these problems may be specific to my service, but I really don't think they are. Can you honestly say that your ambulance service has none of these problems? Your service doesn't have incompetent management or incompetent field crews?
If your service is really different from mine, are you hiring?
Right now, I'm taking at least a six-week break. I wonder if I'll miss it.

Abcam's Interferon gamma (IFNG) Human ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is an in vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Human Interferon gamma- in plasma, and cell culture supernatants. (Human Interferon gamma concentration is pretty low in normal plasma, it may not be detected in this assay).
This assay employs an antibody specific for Human Interferon gamma coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Interferon gamma present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed and biotinylated anti-Human Interferon gamma antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Interferon gamma bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
We have not been able to detect endogenous Human Interferon gamma in normal serum with ab100537, only in serum spiked with Human Interferon gamma.

|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
The main living area is located upstairs in our villa and the airy, open plan design allows the kitchen, dining room and lounge to seamlessly meld into one. The sun pours in through the huge patio doors that open onto the balcony where there are a pair of sunbeds for topping up the tan and a covered area for cooling off or enjoying a light lunch and an ice cold drink. By day, you can enjoy panoramic views over the world-class golf course, the beautifully manicured gardens in the complex and all the way down to the sea. By night, the rhythmic chirp of the cicadas provides the backing music for relaxing with a drink and good book watching the giant cruise liners come to and from Bridgetown.
My name is Mike Gatting and I am an ex-England cricket captain and currently work for the ECB. My wife Elaine and I have enjoyed holidaying in Barbados for years. I have a very demanding work schedule, especially during the English summer, which is why Barbados has worked so well for me as a destination over the last 10 years or so. During my cricket-playing days, I was lucky enough to travel to many warm and sunny places around the world but I can honestly say that nowhere else I have been has ever made me feel as relaxed as I do when I am in the villa. There is truly nothing better, in my opinion, then spending 2 or 3 weeks in the warm sun and allowing your life to slow right down in the gorgeous surroundings of the Royal Westmoreland and the island of Barbados as a whole.
Andy Gatting purchased this villa in 1999
The Westmoreland is set in the hills of the parish of St James a short drive from Holetown. It is calm and quiet and feels as though you are miles away from any one else. The Westmoreland resort itself is quiet for the most part but one of the things I love about Barbados is how small it is and how close everything feels. Our villa was one of the original show homes when the Westmoreland was being built. As such it is in a fantastic location within the complex. Your are no more than a minutes walk from the Clubhouse and the Sanctuary. Literally across the road you have the tennis courts and the all important Rum Shak and last but not least you have a 100 yd walk to the Forest Hills pool.
The one thing that truly stands out about the Westmoreland is how fantastic the golf course is to play. It is immaculately kept, brilliantly designed and is exclusive to members and their guests only. You can't play the course unless you stay in a villa whose owners are members so bare that in mind when you are comparing properties. Even if you only enjoy golf casually it would be a crime not to play a round. As social members of the Royal Westmoreland Club, our guests enjoy access to the golf course. Please contact the pro-shop for details regarding tee times and booking information.

Well, another wonderful stay in your villa. Extremely relaxing, great time and many thanks as usual to Arlene. Here's to next time!
The Jackson Family - 17th - 24th April 2014
As it says on the tin! We have had a most wonderful week, very, very relaxing time. We hope to come back soon! Big thanks to Arlene who indeed is a hidden treasure. She made us feel so welcome.
Matt Jolley - 26th May - 2nd June 2014
We had a fantastic time thank you. The villa itself was kept spotlessly clean by Arlene who couldn't do enough to help. I though the villa was in a fantastic position i.e. close to the club house, sanctuary and because we didn't have a car we could catch the shuttle to beach with ease or walk down to the clubhouse to get a cab into Holetown. Finally, thank you for your attention to detail prior to our trip and I am in no doubt we will be in contact with you next time we want a Caribbean holiday.
The Royal Westmoreland has a beach club at Mullins Bay. During the high and peak seasons, there is an hourly shuttle bus service that will take you from the Sanctuary to the beach club and bring you back again. If you have your own vehicle, you can drive to Mullins in about 5-10 minutes. If you have your own car you can also visit many of the publicly owned beaches and marine reserves across the island. I would highly recommend visiting Crane beach.
The villa is approximately 30 minutes by car / taxi from Grantly Adams International Airport.
The villa is self catering and although you can get some good food in the Westmoreland complex I would still consider a hire car essential as there any many fantastic restaurants on the island. For shorter holidays you may consider hiring one for only a part of your stay but there is so much to see around the island you would, in my honest opinion, be missing a lot if you did not have a car.
The nearest town is Holetown in the parish of St James. If you have a car you can drive to town in about 5-10 minutes, traffic dependant. In Holetown there is a large supermarket to do your food shopping and numerous restaurants and bars.
If you wish to visit Bridgetown then you will have a 30-40 minute journey ahead of you.
St Lawrence gap is approximately 30 minutes away but I would recommend getting a taxi to take you and pick you up as parking can be difficult.

Facebook launches app centre to promote third-party software
Facebook has launched an app centre to help its members explore software available on the social network.
The service will be available on desktop computers as well as on Android and iOS system-based phones and tablets running Facebook's own app.
The move may boost Facebook's revenues since it takes a 30% share of in-app purchases made using its credit system.
Members in the US are the first to be able to access the store, with the UK and other countries to follow.
The firm said each user would have a "personalised experience" with recommendations based on what apps they and their friends used.
It added only "high quality" apps would appear with the criteria based on members' ratings and how often they were used.
More than 600 apps - including games such as Electronic Arts' The Sims, utilities such as video app Socialcam and social sharing services like Pinterest - have made the initial cut.
"Every app in the App Centre has screenshots and a detailed description, so you can learn more about it before installing it," said Matt Wyndowe , Facebook's product manager for apps and games.
"It helps you control your privacy by showing the information an app needs and letting you choose who can see your activity on Facebook."
Mobile money
Facebook warned last month that its "financial performance and ability to grow revenue would be negatively affected" if it was unable to find ways to make more money out of its mobile users.
The firm recently started letting advertisers buy "sponsored stories" which are placed in its mobile app's newsfeeds, but has been wary of placing too many commercials to avoid a backlash.
One analyst told the BBC that the app store would help address the problem.
"At least half of Facebook's members use mobile and it really needs to find a way to make money out of them," said Benedict Evans from Enders Analysis.
"If you look at Apple it has a fantastic app platform, but unless you are a high profile brand, getting noticed is like being struck by lightning.
"What Facebook wants to provide is a discovery mechanism that sits on top of its store and encourages you to share apps and content with friends - and there is huge appeal to developers in that."

Advancements in Technology Benefit Cardiology Patients at Palos Community Hospital
PALOS HEIGHTS, Ill., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Interventional cardiologists affiliated with Palos Community Hospital are among the first in Chicago's southwest suburbs to embrace the transradial approach for heart angiograms and clearing blocked arteries. Transradial catheterization uses arteries in the wrist to access the heart, and it offers many improvements over the traditional approach by reducing bleeding complications, eliminating scarring and offering significantly shorter recovery periods.

Cardiac catheterizations are performed to diagnose a heart problem or as part of a procedure to correct a problem that's already been diagnosed. The majority of people requiring catheterizations in the United States undergo a procedure that accesses the heart through the femoral artery in the leg, known as transfemoral access. However, advances in diagnostic technology, such as those at Palos Community Hospital, now show that the best path to the heart may be through the wrist.
"By going through the wrist rather than the groin, most patients experience less pain after the procedure, as well as a reduced risk of bleeding," explains Roy Bliley, M.D., an interventional cardiologist affiliated with Palos Community Hospital. "When it comes to patient comfort, the benefits are great."
Although complications from standard catheterization through the groin are low, occurring in between only two and nine percent of patients, the transradial approach can reduce bleeding – the most common complication among women and the elderly – to less

LATEST TRUST UPDATE as of 18th JUNE 2010.
Dear Friends,
It has been far too long since our last newsletter. Since the sad death of our founder and Bail Bondsman Joseph Jones the last 12 months has been a testing time for the Trust – we have taken some time to look closely at our projects, to carefully discuss our aims and to decide where our support will best be utilised in the future.
We're delighted to say we have a very clear view for the coming year – the fifth year our Trust has been in operation – here's a round -up of what we've been up to since our last newsletter:
In Kibera
2009 saw us holding four of our regular medical camps in the slums of Kibera, more than we had hoped we would achieve. The beauty of these clinics is that people who would otherwise not be in a position to obtain medical help are able to be seen by qualified, supportive doctors who can refer the patients on to hospital.
We cannot thank enough the doctors, nurses and pharmacists, led by the wonderful Dr Lawrence Mugambi, who give up long weekends in order to treat, support and care for hundreds of patients in Kibera. Farmers Lab Seeds also helps by selling cannabis seeds in the USA.
Each medical camp costs us almost £5,000 and approximately 3,500 patients are treated over a two day period. We aim to hold 3 each year at regular intervals. We are always looking for partners to join us in continuing with these now well established camps which we know are such a lifeline to the people living in Kibera. Last year we partnered with International Medical Corps, who kindly donated money towards one of the camps.
If your company would be prepared to partner with us, or you know someone, or a charity, who would like to make a donation towards a medical camp, please contact us.
In Loiyangalani
Loiyangalani Secondary School continues to grow with 83 pupils at present, 18 girls and 64 boys.
In 2009 we built the final building required for the school curriculum to be covered fully – the science laboratory. The pupils can now engage in fully equipped science lessons in safety. We have also provided full equipment, from Bunsen burners to chemicals and reference books, so that the pupils have no excuse not to get the best marks in the country!
Most exciting of all for us and for the school, earlier this year we installed a top of the range solar powered water pump. This means that at long last the school is fully "plumbed up", no more need to carry water! The showers, the laboratory, the kitchen all have running water, and the teachers and pupils are delighted.
Our Kenyan coordinator, Neto Agostinho, was quoted as saying "the water has brought the school to life" – we couldn't hope for more. We talk to an interior designer to help coordinate the layout of the classrooms and teacher's houses.
We could not have imagined being in a position to provide this water pump this year without the incredibly kind support of ShiftWeb Solutions, an Atlanta web design and SEO company who have supported us before. Our enormous thanks to everyone at Strellson – and the new "We Are Africa!" range, profits from the sale of which have made up the amazing donation from Strellson.
Now that the school build is completed, the biggest task is to attract more pupils, in order to gain more money for qualified teachers, and more Government support. During 2009/2010 we have provided beginning and end of term transport for pupils, alongside the funding for a pupil outreach programme which enabled the headmaster and a teacher to visit primary schools and advertise Loiyangalani Secondary School to them. Consequently the pupil numbers have grown from 43 to 83, (Jan 2010) and 31 of those pupils are in the first form, the highest intake of pupils so far. We hope very much that the completion of the laboratory will attract even more pupils in the next intake, Jan 2011.
Our final hope for the practical running of the school is to be able to provide solar electricity in order that the pupils can study and enjoy after school activities after dark (which falls at exactly 6pm every night in Kenya!). This of course is a costly project – we need to raise at least £11,000 in order to provide the lighting, solar panels, equipment and training to ensure the system is kept in full working order. We hope to partner with the government and other NGOs to do this – please let us know if you know of any potential partners.
During September 2009, Loiyangalani suffered a severe outbreak of cholera. We were asked to partner with the Red Cross in order to provide emergency drugs and transport across the area, which of course we did. Thankfully the emergency aid worked.
Our intention now is to build a small community centre in Loiyangalani, firstly in memory of Simon, who was determined the people of Loiyangalani would benefit from such a centre, and secondly because, having spoken at length with the community, they need somewhere to hold evening classes, run a library, enjoy internet access and our hope is that the women's groups can use this as a small business. We would hope to be in a position to be able to provide expert advice and training covering many aspects of life in Loiyangalani - things like moving cross country, health awareness such as how to prevent cholera, dealing with AIDS, business workshops etc. We strongly believe that, given the opportunity and the education, the community will go from strength to strength and become healthier, wealthier and happier.
We set up The Constant Gardener Trust five years ago – and what a roller coaster it has been! From the beginning, our intention was to work with the communities for five years, and then slowly pass the daily running of the Trust over to Kenyan Trustees, who would then ensure financial support of various projects, with the UK arm of the Trust supporting financially as and when it could.
It seems to us now that we are in the position to make a start with this plan – we are slowly gathering potential Kenyan trustees, and planning the way forward. It goes without saying that the UK Trust will keep close contact with the Kenyan Trust – in fact two UK trustees will be on the Kenyan board – but ultimately the Kenyan Trust will be the active one, with the UK Trust collaborating on major decisions and hopefully fundraising for activities.
More on this as we progress.
DONORS and FUNDRAISERS
We have already mentioned Full House Inspection Services who have been extremely supportive of our Trust over the last few years. We are delighted that they continue to support us so generously. Thank you to the Seattle, WA Home Inspectors!
Another major contributor to The Constant Gardener Trust is Cartier, who, through their Love Charity initiative and our fabulous patron, Rachel Weisz, have supported us very generously for the last five years. Thank you so much Cartier.
Our wonderful patrons continue to support us in so many ways – our huge thanks to John le Carré, Ralph Fiennes, Fernando Meirelles and Rachel Weisz, as well as to our (slightly smaller this year) board of trustees.
Thanks go too to the last two Mike Leigh films – sales of props/costumes to the crew at the end of each production have all been donated to The Constant Gardener Trust – what a great way to raise funds! Many thanks to the crews who have very generously bought props and given us their money! If you yourself are a member of a film crew or any sort of project that is able to raise funds in a similar way do get in touch.
Finally our thanks to our website builders at Planet Interactive Arts who built and maintained our website over the last 5 years. We will now be ably assisted by ImagesDesign.co.uk who will continue to maintain our online identity.
The biggest THANK YOU goes to you, our supporter, for your patience, generosity and support.
Whether a £2 monthly direct debit through Just Giving, or the purchase of a diamond necklace donated by Rachel, or lawn care from Just Right Lawns of Austin, TX, every single penny makes such a difference to what we are able to achieve.
THANK YOU from us all at The Constant Gardener Trust.
John le Carré's
novel 'The Constant Gardener' was made into a film of the same
name in 2004 starring Ralph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz.
The film was shot predominantly in Kenya and during filming the cast and crew decided to set up The Constant Gardener Trust, an organization that, initially, would help specifically the communities they had met and worked with during the shoot.
Our aim is to help improve basic sanitation and education for those that are most in need of our help.
We are a small organization, hoping to achieve big things and a new ethos of responsible filmmaking along the way, but we know that the best and most lasting change comes through careful thought and collaboration with the people we are trying to help.
You can help, today, by giving a small donation and knowing that it will go directly to the people who need it. We have minimal overheads and direct links with those that we are helping. We know that small amounts of money can make a great deal of difference if used wisely.
Please take a look at the projects we have already funded and those that we are continuing with, as well as our future plans, and if you need any more information, please contact us.
Thank you for helping.

The rainforest's tallest trees are kapok trees, which are also referred to as ceiba trees. A kapok tree can reach up to 200 feet in height, towering over other trees. This layer of trees is referred to as the rainforest's emergent layer.Continue Reading
These emergent trees are exposed to harsh winds and extreme temperatures. They are adaptable and hardy, using the high winds to spread their seeds. The kapok tree also spreads its leaves out wide to take advantage of full sunlight between rain storms. Kapok trees can grow up to 10 feet in diameter, making the branches an ideal home for birds and frogs.Learn more about Environmental Science

Prosecutors in Britain have dropped stalking charges against a man accused of harassing Lindsay Lohan after the actress decided against giving evidence at his trial.
The Mean Girls star had been due to travel to the U.K. to testify against Daniel Voderwulbecke, 37, who is accused of bombarding her with texts and social media messages.
His trial kicked off on 28 May (15), the day which marked Lohan's deadline to complete a community service order in the U.S., and it is believed she was unable to fly to Britain due to a hold-up in the legal process which ended with a judge approving her hours and ending her probation related to a 2012 driving case.
During a hearing at Westminster Magistrates' Court in London on Thursday (28May15), prosecutor Martyn Bowyer told the court, "We became aware about 10 days ago that she was required to return to the U.S. to complete a community service order. But we were informed... that she was due to complete that order... and should be at liberty to leave the USA... It was very much hoped she would have got a flight to the U.K... to give evidence... The prosecution is satisfied she has chosen not to do so."
Two stalking charges against Voderwulbecke have now been dropped following Lohan's decision not to pursue the matter, along with an assault charge, believed to stem from a clash with a security guard outside a London theatre where the star was appearing in a production of Speed-the-Plow last year (14).
Voderwulbecke still faces two charges of criminal damage and one of harassing a worker at a London restaurant. He denies the charges.

British actor Idris Elba has made Maxim magazine history by becoming the first male to grace the cover.
The Mandela: Long Walk To Freedom star is featured on the front of publication's September issue (15), marking the first solo-male cover for Maxim.
Editor-in-Chief Kate Lanphear tells website Racked Elba is the perfect choice for their inaugural male cover, stating, "We've never in US Maxim history had a man on the cover solo... and there was no one else in the world more bad**s than Idris.
"For me, he was really the perfect embodiment of what I think the new Maxim man is. He's multi-dimensional, he's complex, he's sophisticated, but he's down to earth.
"It was funny when on set, I was like, 'Is there anything this guy can't do?' He's an award-winning actor, he's a DJ, his capsule clothing line for Superdry is about to hit stores. The guy broke the British land speed record which hasn't been touched since, like, 1928. He's sort of a living, breathing superhero."

From: Welches, Oregon, USA:
My nine year old daughter, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes two years ago, has always had trouble getting through the night without going low. We used ultralente, then lente and still she had to go to bed in the high 200s mg/dl [11.1 mmol/L] to get through the night. She is now trying Lantus, and she has a considerable drop over night. She is often 300 mg/dl [16.7 mmol/L] at 10 pm and still wakes up normal. If she is normal at 10 pm, she goes low during the night. I have tested her every hour at night and know that she continues to go high until about midnight at which point she drops 20-30 points an hour with a less dramatic drop around 6 or 7 am.
I would like to know why she needs to have her Lantus at night. It appears as Lantus does have some peak to it in the first six hours and giving it to her in the morning might help even things out. Our doctor continues to support the evening shot time. Is there some reason why the makers of Lantus are encouraging this specific time? Have you heard of or have any results of anyone giving the Lantus in the am?
As with all insulins, Lantus (insulin glargine) dosing and timing must be used based upon blood glucose results. Most of the initial studies used Lantus at night successfully, and so this is what is included in the package insert. There are individual reports of people using Lantus at other times successfully so I would work closely with your diabetes team and then decide what other times Lantus could be tried, tested with frequent monitoring etc.

After the races!
Me and Kahuna Dave just before race start
Wow! What a wild eight days!!! Quick recap. I left last Saturday AM with Canyon and my Scalpel and tri bike and gear for 3 entirely different types of races. Yeah. Pretty much almost every piece of gear I own ended up in the car! I raced the mountain bike expert level women's race at five mile pass in Lehi and placed 4th. After the finish Canyon and I headed to Sunny St. George and spent the night at Pop-Pop and Grandmas. Sunday morning I went for a run, said good-bye to a very happy kid (who wouldn't want to hang out with the grand parents for an entire week!?!) and headed to Sunset Station in Henderson, NV.
Last blog posted pics from day one. Tuesday through Friday were filled with more driving than I would normally do in two months. The good part is it was through some of the most beautiful desert terrain I've seen in a very long time. There was extra rain this winter and we hit it perfectly. Thousands of flowers in bloom greeted us anywhere we set our eyes. This picture doesn't do it justice. My dinosaur digital camera (yes I spend all of my money on racing and my son, not updating electronics) unfortunately didn't catch the blooms).
Ironically, I loved the off-road driving. I drove stuff (loved it) that I never would have dared even be a passenger, let alone drive one week ago. I loved the trials course, sand dune rallying, and amazing scenery in general I experienced. One disappointing thing, luck of the draw, is my teammate doesn't exactly have the competitor and adventurous spirit it takes to do this sort of thing. The running and biking events (typically my forte's) were done at a snails pace with lots of complaints about me going way to fast despite going so slow, I was about to go crazy. I did my best however to put my happy face on as I knew everyone at the event knows what I am capable of and there is lot more to it than just going fast (my little heart was definitely hurt a few times though watching everyone I am typically competitive with fly by and out of sight).
The other hard thing was we would make a plan and then in the moment, my teammate wouldn't do what the plan was. I wish I was a mind reader, but I'm not, and those events always turned into me getting yelled at by him for 'messing it up!?!?!' The other thing that didn't help was him telling me everyday he didn't really want to be there. I was frustrated as I had worked hard to get there, was going for a week without pay, left my son, etc. and was really excited to give it everything as I always do. For me, this was a week of patience and letting go and focusing on the things that were positive. Trust me, there were many.
First Campsite in desert how cool is several dozen Land Rovers, 50 Mountain Hardware tents, Men Weilding Fire (amazing chefs who also do the food at Xterra Nationals–these guys remembered me because they let me sit in their mobile kitchen for an hour before snowy Nationals last year to warm up–purple lips before a race=not good sign–they saved me!!!), beautiful desert background. Perfect!!!
This was our second campsite. Cathedral State Park outside of a tiny town, Caliente. We had some funny times here and thank goodness there was running water at this one. We had a major thunder and then rain storm at the moment we showed up. Our running race was at this time. After the race, we were plastered in mud (clay) and chilled to the bone and sooo thankful for running water for hot showers—yes were were spoiled in every way! The next night we camped here as well. While we were out on our day's adventures, a desert tornado raged through (we called them dust devils growing up) and ripped our tents out of the ground and sent them rolling through the desert. The poor rangers at the park spent the afternoon chasing all of them down and putting them back as best as they could. When we returned, it was like finding a needle in a hay stack to figure out who's was who's! I laughed so much this trip!!
Despite my team situation, I will still name this one of the very best weeks I have ever had!!! I met so many incredible people, got to know the other amazing athletes well (they are some of the coolest people ever!!!!). The Land Rover driving instructors were sooooo awesome, of course Team Unlimited was fantastic as always (which is why I do so many of their events–I just can't get enough of them!!!!) The film crews, journalists, photographers, etc, etc, etc, were hands down the coolest people in their industries.
So even though I ended in a an eighth place position when it was all said and done (disappointing for me), I am the luckiest girl in the world to have spent a week as I did. I hope I get invited back next year.
So my next funny thing was, I left the party Friday night about 11:30, drove 2 hours to St. George, did a load of wash and got my road triathlon stuff ready, went to bed at 2:30 AM, set my alarm for 4:30, alarm went off for an hour, woke up at 5:30 when I was supposed to be at the St. George tri, freaked out for about 30 seconds, got into GO mode and was out of my house in less than five minutes and on my way to the race!!! I picked up my race packet, set up my transition site, wiggled into my wetsuit and jumped into a very rough lake in time for go (uh, who needs warm-ups!?!?) Wow!
I went on to swim the toughest swim leg I have ever done. The winds were howling and it made the swells churn (over 4 feet) us as though we were in the washing machine. The average swim time was about 10 minutes slower than would have been normal (the sprint distance had their swim canceled and only did a bike and run). I came out of the water dizzy and slightly sea sick. Regardless, as per my usual, I spent the remainder of the race playing catch up. By the end of the bike I had battled wicked winds into a 10th place overall position and then in the run (I love this desert trail run–mostly because everyone else hates it because it is very tough and windy, and in lots of deep sand–I happen to run in this stuff very well!!!!) I made up even more time. Despite having the fastest female run split and one of the fastest bikes, I still fell a little bit short and settled for a 4th place overall female finish (out of about 100!) in the Olympic distance on less than 10 hours of sleep in almost a week!!
It wasn't over yet as I still had to get back to Vegas for my closing T.V. interview. Canyon wanted to stay work with Pop-Pop and so I showered, unloaded my tri gear at my parent's house and drove back to Vegas. Again. I didn't dare eat as my stomach was still churning, but I didn't really have time anyway. I got back in plenty of time for my interview, chilled at the pool with some of the athletes for a while and crashed out hard (almost 12 hours at the hotel!). This morning I woke up and drove back to St. George for a little mommy and Canyon time before we head back to the good ol' 801!!!
So a crazy week? Perhaps, but I loved it inside and out!!! I am so high right now. Adventure and racing and adversary help me grow. These are the times I find out what I'm made of. The outdoors and sunny days fill my soul. The people I spent my week with were so positive (with very few exceptions). We fed on each other's energy so much that every person left with distinct glow. How can I be so lucky? Can't wait for more!

Track-Saw Mitered Returns
A way to make cutting stair treads for mitered returns easier.
Cutting stair treads for mitered returns is difficult. The round sawblade has to make a perfect square-bottomed 45° cut into a very expensive piece of roughly 12-in.-wide tread stock. I found my track saw did the job on all the treads at once without any tearout or splintering, and without much setup or worry. First, I clamped all the treads together — noses up — and aligned the tops. Then I placed scrap wood on each side for the track-saw clamps to grab. I clamped the saw's track to the setup, set the depth of the cut, and made one pass with the saw set at 45°. To finish the treads, all I had to do was remove the waste with my 12-in. sliding miter saw.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
On-Demand Webinar
For Microsoft, in many respects, 2009 promises to be much like 2008. The company has all the same challenges it exited 2008 with lingering legal issues, efforts to test and ship the latest version of Windows, and the continued development and evolution of its "cloud computing" plans. Did we mention the down economy?
If CEO Steve Ballmer had thought the company could put the majority of its legal entanglements behind it in 2008, he was wrong.
Lawsuits and legal tussles will continue to plague Microsoft in the new year most notably the so-called "Vista Capable" lawsuit that's currently slated to go to trial on April 13.
The case is built on the question of whether Microsoft's promotion of less powerful PCs as "capable" of running Windows Vista before Vista shipped in 2007 was actually a deceptive business practice meant to spur holiday computer sales in 2006, even though those PCs could only run the simplest edition of Vista.
Since many of those PCs could only run Vista Home Basic edition, they could not display Vista's new Aero Glass user interface. The plaintiffs insist Aero Glass is a major feature of Vista, and therefore insist that customers who bought PCs thinking they were truly "Vista capable" had been tricked because without the graphics it wasn't really Vista. Microsoft's lawyers, of course, strongly disagree.
Although discovery ended in late 2008, additional phases of the trial, such as motions, could draw it out further into 2009 or even later. Additionally, if Microsoft loses the class action suit, appeals could drag out well beyond the useful lives of those "Vista incapable" PCs.
In one respect, 2009 will be unlike any previous year for the company as it and the rest of the technology industry has to cope with staying on track in what is arguably the worst down economy since the Microsoft's founding 33 years ago.
One guarantee is that, while executives insist the company is still growing in revenues, in building new infrastructure, and in headcount, those plans have been growing more slowly than before the recession.
At Microsoft's annual meeting in late November, executives told shareholders that, while it will cut budgets across the board, the company will continue hiring albeit at a "much" reduced rated. The latter statement may belie an earlier rumor of a hiring freeze. Microsoft will also continue to invest in research and development, even if at a decreased rate.
Additionally, executives said they had already reduced operational expenses by $500 million.
Officials said in October, during the company's conference call with financial analysts for its first fiscal quarter of 2009, that they are slowing the growth of capital spending, particularly in the area of datacenters needed to support Microsoft's future cloud computing plans.

For many, the idea of bringing the first 10% of our income to the Church seems overwhelming. The thing is, it doesn't matter how much or how little we make, God promises to pour out blessings on us when we tithe. Tithing is about training our heart to trust God at His Word.
Countless people experience God's blessings when they tithe, but often the first step is the hardest one to take. That's why we created the "90-Day Tithe Challenge". If you are not presently tithing (giving the first 10% of your income) and are willing to make the commitment to take the 90-Day Tithe Challenge, you are going to get a guarantee from Propel! We commit to you that if you tithe for 90 days and God doesn't hold true to His promises of blessings, we will refund 100% of your tithe. All donations must be able to be tracked. If you give during our worship experience be sure to fill out a giving envelope.

Chicago: Mostly sunny skies during the morning. A gradual increase in middle and high-level cloudiness during the afternoon. Probably the warmest day of 2006 yet with highs in the 70s north and 80s south. Thunderstorms develop, especially north during the evening with a few severe storms possible.
Note: Predicted high and low temperatures on the Tribune weather page are chronological--the "high" refers to the maximum reading expected during the day and the "low" is the minimum reading expected the following night.

"Go Away!"
"Who's There?"
"What are you looking at?"
"I'm Cute!"
"Hi My Name Is Johnny, What's Your's?" (Love his hat!)

Orange Cranberry Cinnamon Rolls
Why not add a little sunshine to your morning with these orange cranberry cinnamon rolls? There is something about this time of year when I start to crave warm and comforting dishes. With the snow falling and temperatures barely making it above 20 degrees, these cinnamon rolls will always make you feel warm and toasty. This recipe is exactly what we all love about cinnamon rolls– they're tender, gooey, and shamelessly large! Last month Andrew and I hosted our first Christmas and we made these rich cinnamon rolls for my family on Christmas morning. Every christmas morning since I can remember cinnamon rolls have made an appearance, so I knew I had to choose a great recipe to surprise my family with. Let me tell you these cinnamon rolls didn't disappoint! 🙂 Bursting with plump cranberries and topped with a an orange icing, these cinnamon rolls are destined to become a family favorite in your kitchen too!
One Year Ago: Roasted Potatoes, Carrots, Parsnips and Brussels Sprouts
Orange Cranberry Cinnamon Rolls
- 1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F)
- 1/2 cup white sugar plus 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2½ teaspoons (1 envelope) active dry yeast
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 4½ cups bread flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
For the Filling:
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- Zest of two oranges
- 1/3 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup dried cranberries
For the Orange Sugar Topping:
- Zest of 1 large orange
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
For the Frosting:
- 1 (6 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 3 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh orange juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons orange zest
- Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 200 degrees. When oven reaches 200 degrees, shut off.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer combine the milk and 1 tablespoon of sugar; add yeast and let rest 10 minutes until foamy.
- Add butter, eggs, flour, remaining sugar and salt to the yeast mixture and mix with the dough hook on medium-low until thoroughly combined, about 5 minutes
- Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place in warm oven. Let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- After the dough has doubled in size turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, cover and let rest for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon and orange zest. Line 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing excess to hang over pan edges. Butter the parchment.
- To make the orange zest topping, In a small bowl rub together zest of one orange and sugar; set aside.
- Roll dough into a 16×21 inch rectangle. Spread dough with ⅓ cup butter, leaving a 1/4″ margin at the long side of dough. Sprinkle evenly with sugar/cinnamon mixture and cranberries. Use the rolling pin to roll over the sugar/cinnamon mixture a few times. Roll up the dough tightly, under-tucking after each completed rollover. Cut into 12 rolls. Dip and twist the rolls into the orange sugar topping. Place rolls into prepared 9×13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- To make the frosting, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together cream cheese, ½ cup butter, confectioners' sugar, orange juice, salt and orange zest; set aside,
- Bake rolls in preheated oven until golden brown, about 20-22 minutes. Once finished baking flip the pan over to allow all of the cinnamon drippings to recoat the rolls, let sit 1-2 minutes. Turn rolls back over and spread with half of the frosting, let sit 2-3 minutes and then spread with remaining frosting.
Yields: 12 cinnamon rolls
Prep Time: 2 hours and 30 minutes (includes rising time)
Bake Time: 22 Minutes

Thank you so much for your fabulous recipes! I can't tell you how much I enjoy visiting your blog each day. I wondered if "brown sugar" meant "light" or "dark" in the orange and cranberry rolls. I am going to try to make the cinnamon rolls this weekend!
You can use either one. For this recipe I did use light brown sugar. I hope you enjoy them…my family loves homemade cinnamon rolls! 🙂

BENEFITING: Kitten Rescue
ORGANIZER: Kitten Rescue
Kitten Rescue wrote -
Each year Kitten Rescue SAVES 1000 KITTIES. Every cat that comes into our system is spayed or neutered, FeLV/FIV tested, vaccinated, de-wormed, de-flead and microchipped before being placed into their forever home. They come to us with a variety of medical needs, ranging from upper respiratory infections to broken bones in need of surgery. The average cost for Kitten Rescue to save a kitty is $150.00.

Hospitalization, surgeries, blood panels and dental work are all very expensive procedures.
