Whiskey comes in many different forms. Some have a higher proof, others have a lower one. Many popular brands are produced in Kentucky, others in Canada or Tennessee. Some whiskeys are even made with rye. With such varying possibilities, it is crucial to understand how best to enjoy whiskey for whiskey's sake.
Whiskey 101
Instructor at Oregon Culinary Institute, Lance Mayhew, makes the argument that higher proof (ranging anywhere from the 100 proof mark or above) can "usually benefit from the addition of a splash of cool water or an ice cube or two." The small amount of water added to the whiskey helps unlock a lot of the flavors that the high alcohol percentage tends to masks. Wild Turkey 101 Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey is a good example of such a whiskey. Without a touch of water, drinkers may miss some of the noticeable caramel, vanilla, and orange notes that reside within it's taste. When using ice, however, Mayhew advices to let the whiskey melt the ice a little first because the coldness of the ice "tightens" up the whiskey before any individual flavors can become noticeable.
Anything ranging from 90 proof (45% ABV) and up can or cannot benefit from the addition of water or ice. This is left up to preference. Willet Single Barrel "Estate Reserve" is another Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey that can shine with a bit of water, or may not depending on the drinker's preference. Since it is of lesser proof, water may not be needed to hide the alcohol burn and unveil flavors such as tangerine, toasted coconut, and brown sugar. The white oak which the whiskey ages in also gives off a nuance of vanilla. Let the palate be the judge.
All is fair and game for whiskeys with a proof of 80. The distillery has already cut a lot of that alcohol bite from the whiskey, so drinkers can have it straight or "neat" without worry about losing the it's complex flavors. One popular 80 proof whiskey is Basil Hayden's 8 Year Old Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey which demonstrates "aromas of spice, tea, and peppermint, while on the palate, spicy and peppery notes lead into a honeyed sweetness."
It should be said that while mixers can be detrimental to the specific flavors of certain whiskeys, one can certainly use them to make a mean cocktail. Rye whiskey is needed specifically to make an authentic Manhattan. Sazerac 6 Year Old Straight Rye Whiskey is a popular choice for such a cocktail due to its wonderful balance between spiciness and sweetness. However, being 90 proof, it can also be enjoyed neat or with a tinge of water to help exhibit the robust character of the rye.
Again, taste belongs to the palate of the taster. The golden rule is that the lower the proof and quality, the less likely anything will be lost from combining with mixers or using for shots. Some may get a kick out of a whiskey and ginger ale, others prefer it straight. Regardless of preference, muddling quality whiskeys with anything besides a little water or ice will in fact take away from the complex tastes and aromas emanating from a glass of whiskey.

The old Troy Town at Open School East
More info at www.troytown.org.uk
Troy Town Art Pottery is Aaron Angell's Ceramic Studio. It is a radical and psychedelic workshop for artists. It was opened in 2014 and has hosted over 60 artists in residence since then.
Troy Town focusses on properly consolidating ceramics within the plastic arts, rather than treating it as a special medium or one that only has certain functions or readings. The programme is devoted to enabling professional artists to work sculpturally, working with staff to achieve nuanced results. All glazes are produced in-house and our glaze library is designed cumulatively according to the wishes of resident artists. We fire with electric, gas, and wood.
Troy Town is also host to Town Gas, an innovative educational programme for local young people. A group of ten people are currently being trained in all aspects of ceramic production, and also the running of further workshops for other community groups. Town Gas is initially a two year programme and will eventually lead to some members of the group occupying paid positions at the pottery.
Access to the pottery and its facilities for artists is currently available on an invite-only basis. If you are an artist who has a proposal for working at the pottery which you believe would be of interest, please email this to firstname.lastname@example.com
Troy Town is supported by Arts Council England and Create. It has previously been supported by Open School East.

Owen + Alchemy Will Make an Awesome Glass of Juice
Cold-pressed veggie, fruit, and nut drinks go upscale at a chef-driven liquid apothecary coming to Logan Square.
What happens when a cool chef such as Jared Van Camp (Nellcôte, RM, Kinmont), who has discovered that cold-pressed juices with breakfast and lunch help him combat his type 1 diabetes, meets a hip entrepreneur such as Anne Owen? They brainstorm their way into Owen + Alchemy, a new eight-seat chef-driven liquid apothecary.
Due to open in June, the place will offer more than 30 fruit juices, nut milks, and smoothies. "We will have a basic green—kale, parsley, spinach, celery—but with riffs," says Van Camp. "We will definitely be doing something funny and a little weird with asparagus, in season, when we open."
Owen is a smoothie girl during the day—she says it balances out her love of eating, drinking, and entertaining at night.
At O+A, you too can learn the joys and benefits of apple ginger juice and watermelon smoothies. Pulp fiction no more.

On Oct. 16, 2016, SAIT celebrated 100 years with an event of epic proportions. Over 20,000 people came to our main campus to help us ring in the second century, and celebrate we did.
We started our birthday celebration with a free BBQ for the first 2,500 people, a family activity zone and live entertainment, but that was only the beginning. The day featured 100 Years of Wheels & Wings: School of Transportation Car, Truck and Helicopter Show; a meet and greet with our 101-year-old alumnus Clarence Hollingworth; and an opportunity to try welding, sheet metal and crane operation.
Mayor Naheed Nenshi kicked off the opening of our 1966 Time Capsule to a packed room. An estimated 2,900 pieces of cake were given out after special guests Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Her Honour the Hounourable Lois Mitchell and Alberta Finance Minister Joe Ceci made the ceremonial cut in our one-of-a-kind, 10-foot birthday cake. Canadian Juno winner Dan Mangan and his band brought us all to our feet on Cohos Common Field band the Stampede Show Band played us into our fireworks countdown. The fireworks plunger was pushed by SAIT President and CEO, Dr. David Ross; SAITSA President, Gar Gar and SAIT Board Chair Heather Culbert at 7:16 (19:16), launching an unforgettable fireworks finale.

Zimbabwe defeated Bangladesh by 69 runs in the third of five one-day internationals at the Queen's Sports Club here on Friday.
After losses in the two opening games, this win put the hosts firmly back in the series, with two more matches to come here on Sunday and Tuesday.
Zimbabwe, sent into bat after Bangladesh won the toss, were sent on their way to victory by Hamilton Masakadza's maiden one-day century with the big-hitting batsman smashing 102 off 112 balls with four boundaries and two sixes.
Elton Chigumbra (61 not out) and Brendan Taylor (94), back after a lengthy period playing in England, added a further 90 from 50 balls, with Chigumbra's 50 coming from just 26 balls.
Zimbabwe's total of 323 was their best here against a Bangladesh side who fell well short of matching their performance.
Bangladesh, who arrived here having swept the Test and one-day series in the West Indies, were always struggling once they had slipped to 39-4 after Tamim Iqbal was out first ball, Naeem Islam was bowled by Chigumbura, Mohammad Ashraful skied to third man and skipper Shakib al Hasan made just 17.
Raqibul Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim tried to rescue the situation with the pair adding a quickfire 68 while Mahbubul Alam lit up the innings with three successive sixes in his maiden half-century.
But Zimbabwe sealed victory in the 45th over.
"We didn't bowl well," said Shakib. "It was a tough day for us; hopefully we will come back in the next game. We didn't start well with the bat. Only 80 runs were needed in the last overs but we didn't have enough wickets."
Zimbabwe skipper Prosper Utseya said: "The guys managed to come to the party today. Form is temporary, class is permanent. I think our batting can still improve. On that wicket, 350 is a good score."
Chigumbura, who also picked up two wickets, was named man of the match.
"It was a good innings. The guys upfront did a good job to help me come in and play my game. We have to do well on Sunday to level the series," said the all-rounder.

REVEALED: Police release new photos from Kurt Cobain suicide scene
POLICE have released previously unseen photos from the suicide of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain.
As the 20th anniversary of the singer's death approaches, a Seattle cop reviewed the case files again and found four roll of undeveloped film from the suicide scene at Cobain's house in Seattle.
One of the photos showed a box containing equipment used for taking drugs – as well as a spoon and what appears to be needles on the floor next to a smoked cigarette and a pair of sunglasses.
The other photo shows the closed box next to a pile of money, a packet of cigarettes and a wallet with Cobain's ID inside.
Despite the new images, the police have found no new information to change the verdict that the Nirvana singer killed himself.
"It's a suicide. This is a closed case"Detective Mike Ciesynski
Detective Mike Ciesynski, who found the four rolls of undeveloped crime scene photos said: "Sometimes people believe what they read-some of the disinformation from some of the books, that this was a conspiracy.
"That's completely inaccurate.
"It's a suicide. This is a closed case."
Police spokeswoman Renee Witt added: "There was nothing earth-shattering in any of these images.
"The detective went into the case files to refresh himself.
"The outcome of the case has not changed...
"There are no new developments, no new twists or turns in the case.
"He came upon this film, and that's pretty much it. It is still a suicide."
Cobain's body was discovered on April 8, 1994, with the investigation into his death coming to the conclusion that the singer took a massive dose of heroin before shooting himself with a shotgun.
Earlier that year, Cobain had tried to kill himself in Rome by taking an overdose of tranquilizers.
Despite his death being ruled a suicide, some still believe that he had been killed.

This is my first post for a while as I've been pretty snowed under with coursework (and I'm still feeling my way with this blogging malarky to be honest) but I went to an event at the Royal Society of Medicine recently that I think deserves a post.
It was a debate on using biomarkers – indicators such as genes or brain activity – to treat, detect and predict mental illness. It's quite a personal issue for me as my Mum has had chronic bipolar since her early 20s, which she's had some really rough times with, and having seen her living with this I feel strongly about what the speakers were saying.
One potential use of psychiatric biomarkers they were discussing was using them to personalise drugs, predicting whether a treatment is likely to work for a patient. This I'm all for, at the moment patients often have to go through rounds of trial and error to find what suits them or what doesn't cause them severe side-effects, as I well know from my Mum. Biomarkers could also shed light on the cause and processes involved in these diseases and again this all sounds good to me.
But I feel really uneasy about using them to predict risk of getting these conditions. Derek Bolton, a professor of philosophy and psychopathology at King's College, said that anyone with a close relative with bipolar – so me and my sister – had a one in ten chance of developing it too. Even this was too much information for me, and if it was possible to screen for bipolar genetic markers there's no way I'd want to know this. I think it would be really difficult information to deal with, especially as it would be something tied to my personality. I'd maybe want my doctor to know, but I'd definitely not want to.
I've written a piece on it for a competition (which I didn't win, boo) so thought I'd give it an airing here. It's another fiction piece, have just finished a module on narrative and creative writing! It'd be good to hear if anyone feels the same way.
Marked for life
Genetics is set to revolutionise healthcare, and psychiatry is on the cusp of this sea change. Our knowledge of mental disorders is broadening as scientists build a picture of biomarkers – indicators such as genes or brain activity which can predict or measure illness or response to treatment1,2. This research is already nearing clinical practice: Vilazodone is an antidepressant being developed alongside understanding of biomarkers which predict its efficacy in individuals, enabling targeted prescription3. Parallel to this the cost and speed of genomic decoding is plummeting, and a public healthcare-intended 'lab-on-a-chip' able to sequence DNA using nanolitre- (billionths of a litre) scale samples has been created4,5. The NHS is poised to exploit these developments, wanting to use genetics for personalised treatment6. It also plans to prescribe information in much the same way drugs currently are7. However fears about the use of psychiatric biomarkers are being aired. These include how best to communicate results, the effects on children of predicting life trajectories, and the commercial targeting of individuals based on their DNA8.
By 2020.
I nervously flip the prescription card over and over, running my finger over its magnetic strip. It's so every-day looking; a simply, white bank-card shape with the NHS logo and my details. Ugh gross, my hands are so clammy they're smearing the spotless plastic. Ok here goes, I'm ready. I've got to be.
I type in nhs.uk. Here we go, 'Personal prescription' tab. Enter name, date of birth, prescription number…Click. It's loading. I stretch my fingers to try and stop them shaking and wipe some of their dampness onto my jeans. "Welcome. Please read the information below before looking at your personal prescription". Don't think so, not now. I scroll down, yup, yup, agree, accept, click, click. Next. Deep breath. There it is.
"Diagnosis: Mild panic disorder". Wow. I freak out over a GCSE maths exam and now I've got 'mild panic disorder'. Dr Oliff told me after they read my DNA and looked at my brain scan results, but it's shocking reading it. "The most important news of your life", Dr Oliff said in the consultation as I was spitting into the cup. "The secrets to who you really are". She pipetted it into this small device, it looked almost like a pregnancy test. And then five minutes later she downloaded the whole lot.
There's a list of numbers and letters on the screen too. They're the Bad Genes I guess: what's wrong with me, why, what might be wrong with me later. The most important news of my life.
Except it wasn't exactly news. The first thing my Dad did after the school rang, and got him to pick me up, was get me to gob in a test tube so he could send it off. "It's the rest of your life, your education, your success, your career. We have to find out what's wrong and sort it, ok? Who knows where it might lead? I'm sorry". And then he wouldn't let me read the report when it did come, just said we'd discuss it at the doctors! I'm old enough to drive and have sex but I'm clearly too immature to talk about what's in my own cells. I've got to have this Vilazodone now. Dad insisted Dr Oliff prescribe it, kept saying how I'd have an "enhanced response" to it, and that my "side effect profile" suited it. Dr Oliff was well unpleased he'd got the genetic health analysis from the internet, but she prescribed it anyway, saying her results agreed Vilazodone was the one for me. There was a list of other stuff the internet said I should have but she wasn't on board. Maybe he feels guilty, my Dad, like it's half his fault.
I check the rest of the treatment section. A cognitive behaviour therapy site, a support forum, a relaxation exercises site. Right, ok. Onto the next stage of the prescription. My mental health for the rest of my life. My hands are properly shaking. Prognosis. Dr Oliff went through this with me and Dad but I couldn't take it in then. She explained the percentages and what it all meant but my head was spinning too much. "Genetic biomarkers": another list of Bad Genes. "fMRI results": more confusing numbers and letters. "Risk of chronic panic and anxiety disorder: 75% – high". Fuck. "Risk of clinical depression: 65% – moderate-high". Double fuck. Wow. I try and stretch my fingers again. 65%? That's fairly certain right? It's my entire body that's shaking now. I mean, much more likely to happen than not? I always knew it was in my family but I hadn't thought what that could mean for me. What does 65% mean for me?
I thought I had just my exams to worry about.

This major new title is a comprehensive review of speciation and its consequences in birds. The book covers a broad range of areas, from genetics to biogeography and from phylogeny to ecology. It will be of interest to geneticists, ecologists, animal behaviourists and anyone with an interest in bird speciation.
"As the literature in any field explodes there is simultaneously an increasing need for synthesis yet an increasing difficulty in achieving it. This is certainly true for the ever-popular subject of ornithology. Trevor Price takes up the challenge to explain how birds speciate, and succeeds magnificently. It is a comprehensive review of all the major ideas, beautifully illustrated with pictures of birds. More than 1300 works are cited, but more impressive is the range of subjects, from genetics to biogeography, from the reconstruction of phylogeny to ecology and the causes of reproductive isolation, all discussed with admirable clarity. If they were alive today Ernst Mayr would bestow patrician approval on this work of scholarship, and Theodosius Dobzhansky would applaud from the side-lines."
- Peter R. Grant, Class of 1877 Professor of Zoology, Princeton University, and the author of Ecology and Evolution of Darwin's Finches
"Insightful and original work, comprehensive and up to date" - Robert Payne
"Demonstrates the influential contributions, indeed special role, that studies of birds continue to make to our understanding of speciation." - Loren H Rieseberg, Science Magazine, 12 October 2007
This is an insightful and original work, comprehensive and up to date, and covers many interesting ideas and is particularly good at the inclusion of recent genetic information on the process of speciation in birds. It will be the best work available on its topic, the behavioral and genetic causes and consequences of speciation in birds Robert Payne, University of Michigan Museum of Zoology

Research Project
Grant-in-Aid for General Scientific Research (B)
Most of mitochondrial proteins are synthesized on free polysomes in cytosol as precursors with a presequence at their N-terminal portions, imported into mitochondria and located in their own locations in various mitochondrial compartments (outer membrane, intermembrane space, inner membrane, and matrix). In this import process, many cellular proteins such as a cytosolic factor and receptor for the mitochondrial protein precursors are required as import machinery.From a rabbit reticulocyte lysate, we purified homogeneously 28 kDa protein which were required for import of the precursor proteins with an affinity column using synthetic peptide containing the presequence of ornithine aminotransferase precursor as a ligand. This 28 kDa protein (28 kDa targeting factor) was a component constructing a factor carrying the precursor to mitochondria. Anti-28 kDa targeting factor IgG specifically inhibited the import of the precursor as well as its binding to mitochondria.The components of import

machinery were extensively purified from the mitochondrial membrane fraction by affinity column chromatography using the same synthetic peptide as that used for purification of 28 kDa targeting factor. The purified fraction contained two major proteins with molecular masses of 29 and 52 kDa. Although these two proteins had an affinity to the presequence of omithine aminotransferase, the 29 kDa protein could more tightly bind the presequence than the 52 kDa protein. Furthermore, 42 kDa protein was also purified as complex with 29 and/or 52 kDa protein. It was also shown that anti-29, 42, and 52 kDa protein Fab fragments strongly inhibited the import of precursor of ornithine aminotransferase into mitochondria. The localization of 29 and 52 kDa proteins in the mitochondriawas studied, then it was found that most of these proteins were located in the distinct area, so called "the contact site" in the outer mitochondrial membrane. And it was comfirmed by further analysis that these three proteins function as translocation machinery for the mitochondrial protein precursors. Less

But in jail, he said, "I met all these young radical people of color -- I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.'" Although he already had a plane ticket, he decided to stay in San Francisco. "I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary." In the months that followed, he let go of any lingering thoughts that he might fit in with the status quo. "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th," he said. "By August, I was a communist."
Notice how vividly he recalls the story of his conversion to communism. This is important, because when people have big turning points in their lives, the details are usually memorable. Searching for this, there is a lot of revisionist history out there on this. This article comes to the following conclusion: "That doesn't sound Marxist to us." Which is totally laughable.
The problem for them, is that for people who have actually lived under communism, they can't help but notice the similarities.
This ideology preaches earth and nature and under the slogans of their protection – similarly to the old Marxists - wants to replace the free and spontaneous evolution of mankind by a sort of central, now global, planning of the whole world
So then the real question to ask is "where has Van Jones ever repudiated communism and centralized planning?" Just because he's silent about his beliefs and has a new way to sell them, is a far cry from having flipped over to something completely new and different, of course, notice how there's no vivid recalling of his turning point away from centralized planning.

Vauxhall Viva U2287 Engine Trouble Code
Theoretically you can drive for a few weeks or even months with a broken MAF sensor. You will notice a decrease in gas mileage and over time the car will eventually start stalling a lot. At a shop, the replacement cost is between $200-$300 depending on the car, but that's usually the cost of parts because the labor is relatively simple.
Vauxhall Viva U2287 Code Meaning :
|OBD-II Diagnostic Network (U) Trouble Code For Engine
|Fuel And Air Metering (Injector Circuit Malfunctions Only)
|Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit High Input
|Ignition/Distributor Engine Speed Input Circuit Malfunction
|Shift/Timing Solenoid Malfunction/ 3-2 Shift Solenoid Circuit Electrical
When you check Vauxhall Viva car engine light came on code U2287 the reason should be . However manufacturer may have a different definition for the U2287 OBD-II Diagnostic Network (U) Trouble Code. So you should chech it on our car models.
U2287 Fault Symptoms :

Now don't ask yourself; What should you do with U2287 code ?
The solution is here :
Vauxhall Viva U2287 Possible Solution :
The crankshaft sensor signals the fuel injection computer or the ignition control when the cylinders are firing. This causes the ignition coil to provide a spark and the injector to inject fuel into each cylinder at the right time.If either sensor isn't working correctly, the car will run rough and the engine will be less efficient. In later car models, the car's computer can usually keep the vehicle running, but the engine warning light on the dashboard goes on to warn the driver.
U2287 OBD-II Diagnostic Network (U) Trouble Code DescriptionU2287 engine trouble code is about Shift/Timing Solenoid Malfunction/ 3-2 Shift Solenoid Circuit Electrical.
Reason For U2287 CodeThe reason of U2287 OBD-II Engine Trouble Code is Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit High Input.
Parts or components should not be replaced with reference to only a U2287 DTC. The vehicle service manual should be consulted for more information on possible causes of the fault, along with required testing.

My dear friends,
Just a quick note to let all my caring friends here know that Roy passed away Saturday night at the hospital. From what, we don't know (it wasn't the cancer or the esophageal surgery). The doctors don't know, they told us that. An autopsy might help, they said.
When we came in to see him this morning, the doctors told us it didn't look good, his blood pressure kept dropping. They were going to take him for a CT scan to see if anything was going on inside him that was causing his blood pressure to be dropping so fast. Then they determined that they couldn't wait for the CT results, they would just take him for surgery. After prepping the OR, the doctor said just the trip to the OR was too dangerous for him, he probably would die in the elevator. So, believe it or not, they did the operation in his room! They said he probably wouldn't survive the surgery, but he did. They found nothing in any of his organs to give them any clues as to what was happening. So they told us we should all say our good-byes and sit by his bedside with him. Our three kids and their spouses and his brother and two sisters were there.
He died very peacefully at 10:23 pm. We are all going to miss him dearly. He was so loved by us all and he loved everyone of us.
I'm sorry my story is so grim and graphic, but I needed to tell all of you, who without your help, I would have never made it this far. I appreciate all the love, support and prayers from everyone on this site (and Roy did, too).
I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers and I will still keep in touch, my dear friends.
Love from me & Roy

Oh Trish, I am very sorry for your loss. I will keep your famiy in my thoughts and prayers and wish you guys the best. Hang in there sweetie.
Dec 06, 2009 - 9:42 am
What can I say, but i am so sorry to hear your loss, but he has joined our KITTEN and they are rejoicing at the gates of EC patients. Roy fought a fight, but if the doctors told you it wasn't his cancer or his surgery, it makes you wonder, I really thought things were looking up for you. We all have never met but we take each one in our hearts like they are our family. You stayed with him through the end, and you have no regrets, I hope you truly continue on as Roy would want you too. Please know we all are here for you and will continue to pray for you, please keep us posted on how you are doing.
Pack your love with him and send it with him to heaven I am sure you have alot of memories of each other together.

Now...He is not alone---and neither are you. HE is no longer suffering, but you are...we will all be here, when family & friends are not.
Be thankful for the time you and Roy had together---remember the good times like he (Roy) would want you to do... The Lord knows your pain and will not leave you.
Dec 06, 2009 - 6:34 pm
Trish my heart goes out to you. I am so sorry for your loss. I wish that I had more comforting words other than he is in a better place an is no longer in pain.
Seek comfort in this and that the Lord must have had a special reason to have taken him from you.
Please let us help you in your time of grief and if you need us we will be here for you.
God Bless you and your family .
Dec 07, 2009 - 5:29 pm
I am so so sorry. I'm not good with this stuff so I will say that you will always be in my prayers. My sympathy goes out to you and your family.
Dec 07, 2009 - 6:58 pm
Hi Everyone,
As we prepare everything for the funeral home tomorrow, I am reminded of all the love and support I have received from all of you here.
Family is arriving tomorrow....I'm sure the funeral home will be very crowded....he had so many friends....he was such a good man! We are still hanging in there. It's not easy but with your family around, it sure helps! Still trying to make sense of this.
I guess it was God's plan (it certainly wasn't mine). He must have known Roy was going to suffer and decided to spare him the pain. If that's the reason Roy's gone, I should be thankful. But we are all so sad for all the things in life Roy is going to miss.
I wanted to thank all of you again. It's so nice to read your posts....especially when you all are going through so much of your own and you are still thinking of me! You are all still in my prayers!
Dec 09, 2009 - 10:50 am
Hi Trish,
Please keep in touch with us here. We love to hear from you. We can not talk to Roy, but we can talk to you. Stay strong and know that you did the best you could for Roy. God Bless you and your family at this time.

Judge Discards Ohio Military Voting Privileges, Imposes Weekend Voting
Fifteen military groups filed a motion to intervene in the case and other courts have ruled that members of the military are uniquely situated and must be given every opportunity (even extra opportunities) to vote. Judge Economus ruled that the brave men and women fighting for our freedom are just like every other member of society, entitled to no greater privileges than Obama's ACORN cronies.
The judge also said that minority voters would be disenfranchised, feeding the frenzied charges of racism by some OH Democrats:
Plaintiffs submit statistical studies to support their assertion that low-income and minority voters are disproportionately affected by the elimination of those voting days. Therefore, the injury to Plaintiffs is significant and weighs heavily in their favor.
The judge concluded that Ohio's uniform voting rule:
... is unconstitutional ... and … violates the Equal Protection Clause of the United States Constitution.
He blocked it from being enforced, and went further:
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that in-person early voting IS RESTORED on the three days immediately preceding Election Day for all eligible Ohio voters … This Court anticipates that Defendant Secretary of State will direct all Ohio elections boards to maintain a specific, consistent schedule on those three days, in keeping with his earlier directive that only by doing so can he ensure that Ohio's election process is "uniform, accessible for all, fair, and secure."
The problem with this order is that Ohio never had "uniform" statewide voting the weekend before the election (see above). He is ordering SOS Husted to restore something that never existed. It is unclear whether the judge has ordered Husted to restore the law to what it was before Ohio began the voting reform efforts, or whether the judge is unilaterally writing a new law from the bench, imposing weekend voting hours on all of Ohio's county Boards of Election.
Ohio is an important battleground state in the November election. The counties that offered voting the weekend before the election heavily favored President Obama and Democrats in the last election, and there is an incentive to both suppress the military vote and to increase the vote of urban and minority voters this election.

Prayers For The Mother To Be
Angela Thomas is a follower of Christ, mother, friend, best-selling author, speaker and teacher. Her determination to know God on an intimate level, and her dedication to studying the Bible, have taught her many truths, some discovered through tears and some in times of joy. But many of the richest lessons learned have come through the gift of her four children. Angela Thomas graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a double major in economics and television production. She began full-time work in the field of transportation, but it was her avocation, as part-time youth director, that led her to enroll at Dallas Theological Seminary. She earned her Master's degree in Dallas and moved to North Carolina to become a Minister to Senior High Girls. Marriage and babies followed not long after, providing Angela with much joy and much change. Then in 1995, Angela took her first steps into the world of publishing. She had been teaching a women's Bible study for several years and one of her students encouraged her to start putting her words on paper. She wrote her first book, Prayers for Expectant Mothers, during her fourth pregnancy and followed it with Prayers for New Mothers. Her 2001 Focus on the Family release, Tender Mercy for a Mother's Soul, became a bestseller. In 2003, Angela is releasing two books as part of a multi-book contract with Thomas Nelson Publishers. Her latest trade book release, which arrived in stores in February, is entitled Do You Think I'm Beautiful? The Question Every Woman Asks. Prayers for The Mother to Be, which was out of print for a time and has now been revised and updated, will be re-issued in time for Mother's Day. Angela's writing has grown quite naturally out of her day-to-day life as a mother and as a woman. "I promised God that I would tell the truth about my life and His work within me, so my writing is just an extension of that. I'm really a storyteller, sharing out of my own life experiences." Angela Thomas has the uncanny ability to be transparent in her writing. She tells stories, makes her readers laugh, and whispers to them about their most personal fears and heartfelt dreams. It is her vulnerability, alongside poetic prayers, that draw women to her heart. Today, Angela speaks at conferences, retreats, and Bible studies across the country. Audiences enthusiastically respond to her practical, relevant discussions, and she seems to instantly bond with all types of women. Without the wrappings of pretense or pride, Angela tells it like it is . . . and how it can be. Angela and her children, AnnaGrace, William, Grayson and Taylor, reside in Knoxville, Tennessee. Angela, a single mom, is heavily involved at Two Rivers Church, where her family has attended since moving to Knoxville more than three years ago. The counsel and encouragement of her pastor, elders and friends at Two Rivers are a vital support to Angela's family and ministry.

Featured Stamper 92 CASEing Wendybell
Today the Featured Stamper on SCS is Wendy, my friend from the SCS Challenge Chaser thread on SCS. Wendy is a sweetie I met in real life when she hosted all of us CCers at her house during Convention this summer! Thrilled to find a beauty of hers to CASE, I chose this card: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1118687?cat=500&ppuser=79179 I was a rebel and didn't use a Butterfly which is Wendy's trademark (right now at least--they have sentimental meanings for her in addition), but I made a Christmas card instead.

This card is a CASE of Becca Stamps on SCS for the Featured Stamper Challenge (FS91). Her work is elegant with lots of perfectly tied bows....my bow is just okay :)
I admit this one isn't all SU!, I wish we had liquid applique in every winter catty! For this card I mixed the white with Pink Pirouette reinker to get a pink frosting. I also shined the cherries with a bit of Crystal Effects.

World Wrestling Entertainment is looking to jump into the cable network ring with a proposed network that the pro grappling outfit expects to launch in the next 18 months, according to WWE chairman Vince McMahon.
"I would hope a year-and-a-half from now we would be up and running," McMahon said. "We think there is a tremendous opportunity for us out there and quite frankly if things happen as we hope they will happen it will be a really big game changer for the WWE."
Full Story on MultiChannel News
I'm not quite as optimistic as Mr. McMahon. I definitely agree it's a tremendous opportunity it's just that it's pretty hard to launch a new cable channel unless you have an existing channel to convert.

Children are among the most vulnerable and innocent among us
In past years, remarkable progress has been made in preventing, investigating, and prosecuting crimes against children. But more can and must be done to address crime, especially as predators exploit technological advances in order to hurt kids. On Wednesday, the Committee approved three bills that will provide additional resources to protect children from abuse and bring perpetrators to justice.
• The Adam Walsh Reauthorization Act, sponsored by Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI), reauthorizes two programs that help prevent child abuse by ensuring the public has access to information on known sex offenders who may live in their neighborhood.
• The Child Protection Improvements Act, sponsored by Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Rep. Mike Bishop (R-MI), ensures that youth-serving organizations have access to national background checks on prospective staff and volunteers through the FBI's database.
• The Targeting Child Predators Act, sponsored by Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), will help protect valuable information used to prosecute and convict child predators.
Over the coming weeks, the Committee will continue to take up additional legislation to help prevent these terrible crimes.

When you are personally immersed in social media and have a business of your own, it can be difficult to assess whether to envelop your brand into your own presence or create a second, distinct one for it. There are certainly benefits and hurdles to each approach, and it should be decided on a case-by-case basis which route is best for you.
Having a single presence on which to focus has numerous perks. It keeps everything streamlined; allows you to leverage your own name in the forefront; and presents the opportunity for an even larger fanbase with both your personal and professional connections merged.
That said, when I debuted my blog, Social Hospitality, in 2011, I opted to create a stand-alone social media presence for it. Although I already had personal Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn accounts, I believed it to be most appropriate to distinguish Social Hospitality's online identify from my own.
As a result, I have social media accounts for both myself, Debbie, and my company, Social Hospitality, on almost every channel. While it may be more work to maintain, there are many reasons this is the right fit.
Here are a few of the reasons I made this decision.
5 Reasons Why I Separated My Social Accounts
- It helped solidify my company in the marketplace. We tend to "judge" businesses now based on whether or not they're active on social. Many times when I visit a website, of any kind, one of the first things I look for are the links to their social profiles to check them out. There'd be a sense of irony if I were claiming to be a brand about social media and offering social media-geared services, but didn't have a social brand myself. In a way, it allowed me to not only "talk the talk," but also "walk the walk."
- The audiences are different in many ways. For example, I have friends from all aspects of my life connected to me (Debbie) on Facebook — childhood, high school, college, high school and college jobs, social media friends, etc. I'll occasionally share business-related content there, but for the most part, I keep my posts there more in line with my personality and life in general. Contrarily, on the Social Hospitality (SH) Facebook page, I share news and stories related to social media and/or the hospitality industry. It's much more professional and tailored to the distinct audience that would follow the Social Hospitality brand.
- It allowed me to be more focused on building the specific kind of audience I wanted to build. I could be targeted who I pursued to interact with on social under the SH umbrella. For example, on my business' Twitter account, I follow a wide array of hotels, restaurants, and entertainment venues. This serves as a win/win since it aligns with my industry, and also, since I focus on how this industry is using social media, it provides first-hand insight into how they're executing their social media strategies. I get a lot of my own social media content to share, as well as inspiration for story ideas for the blog, from simply following brands on social. For my personal Twitter account, however, I follow a broader range of people and share a wider variety of topics. Granted, there is overlap, but I like being able to differentiate the personal from the professional.
- Having a known company name adds a layer of credibility. Certainly, one can build credibility on their own and be more renowned than their brand. This is a regular occurrence, especially in the social sphere. But, for me, starting as an "unknown," showcasing my reputable SH brand aided in nurturing my career and my personal brand as well. The term "Social Hospitality" has an aura of sophistication around it and boosting that in the digital space helps propel my own reputation.
- It adds a safety net, in a sense. I welcome the notion that there are many people who know SH but don't know me. I feel less vulnerable as a result. It's also brought some humor — I recently had a client send me an article she read about LinkedIn for hotels, not realizing I was the one who had written it. To me, that's a win. To me, having a credible brand and being a credible resource, while still being able to have a personal presence as well and keep those personas balanced, is exciting.
Think about what is best for you and your personal brand. If most of the connections on your personal profiles are business ones, it may make most sense for that to be the face of your business life as well.
If you have a personal brand, how do you execute your social media presence? As a single one, or broken up like me? Let me know in the comments!

Beaufield Resources Inc. ("Beaufield" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced on the Launay gold project in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt in Quebec. On November 7th, 2013 Beaufield entered into an option agreement with Melkior Resources Inc. ("Melkior") whereby Beaufield could earn 10% of the Launay Gold Project by spending $250,000 on exploration within the first year of signing the option agreement (refer to November 7th, 2013, press release.) The current drill program is being funded by Beaufield and operated by Melkior.
The program will concentrate on Zone 75 where previous drill holes collared in gold mineralization intersected 1.83 g/t gold over 46.35 metres (hole LAY-08-2012) and 1.20 g/t gold over 21.09 metres (hole ML-87-87) (refer to Melkior press releases May 24th, 2013 and August 30th, 2012.) Approximately 10 holes totaling 1250 metres will be drilled; 9 holes to define Zone 75 and one hole to test an Induced Polarization anomaly.
Melkior has compiled and accurately positioned all historical drilling as well as surface work. The 9 definition holes of this program are based on the 2012 and historical drill data. Based on the drilling Melkior and Beaufield will mutually determine if the information is adequate to prepare a resource calculation.
This news release was prepared by Jens Hansen, Eng., President and CEO of Beaufield Resources Inc.

Consciously rejecting the idealism and cultural dogma that capitalism has wrought is the paramount approach to advancing humanity's mastery over the material world; the outright domination of man over his conditions is his single preordained goal, and communism is the only movement that can fulfill his aspiration.
Capitalism is an obsolete mode of production; its necessity in industrialization has been superseded by its perpetual failure.
What are your qualms with communism, and why do you support capitalism?
1. Tends to fail: Soviet Union, North Korea, Cuba
2. Supresses individual liberty: doesn't allow for private property, the government controls everything, people are forced to be equal in socioeconomic status
Why capitalism is superior:
1: Allows for individual freedom: most democracies are capitalist
2: Allows opportunity for upward mobility
3: Despite its flaws, it is the best system in existence.
This is not the entirety of my argument, rather it's a framework since you seemed to be asking for a framework or a summary of my argument.
"1. Tends to fail: Soviet Union, North Korea, Cuba"
Communism is not like capitalism; it is not a system, it is not a relationship, it is not a model of organization, it is a process. It is process that will certainly procure systems, relationships, and organization of its own, sure, but defining communism on any of those grounds alone is superficial and juvenile.
As Marx said, communism is not a state of affairs; the only implicit role of a communist movement is the abolition of the present state of things, and nothing more. The intricacies of a communistic society are entirely ambiguous insofar as we are immersed in a real, vibrant communist movement.
What does this have to do with your argument?
The failed communist movements of the 20th century were indeed attempting to manifest communism, sure, but their failures can ONLY be attributed to the conditions within their proximity. This idea that "communism" must alone shelter the blame for the failed movements that simply tried to set it in motion is inane. Take this analogy for example:
If a man crashed his car trying to navigate a drive-thru, would the fault of the crash be with him or the establishment that owned the drive-thru?
Obviously, the fault of the crash therein lays with the man, as whatever caused the crash manifested SOLELY within the confines of himself and his car.
"2. Supresses individual liberty: doesn't allow for private property, the government controls everything, people are forced to be equal in socioeconomic status"
First of all, Marxian literature refers to private property only as a connotation for the ownership of the means of production. A factory owned by a company is private property. A home owned by a family is personal property, and would stand just as legitimately in a communistic society as it would in a capitalistic society.
The only "government" in communism is the one facilitating it. There is no implicit role of government beyond this; furthermore, a communist movement that has realized itself to the fullest extent will be devoid of government in its entirety.
Actually, people are not "forced" into any socioeconomic category. I'm not sure what you even mean by this, so I'll just ignore it for now. Please elaborate more on what you mean by this
All right, now on to the capitalism section
"1: Allows for individual freedom: most democracies are capitalist"
Democracy is a method of governance, and capitalism is an economic model. They are not in any way reliant on each other, so I fail to see how this argument is substantiated by anything other than circumstance.
"2: Allows opportunity for upward mobility"
Au contraire, the reality of capitalism procures quite the opposite effect. Sure, hierarchy within an enterprise may allow for some degree of "upward mobility," as you put it, but that is all within the direct proximity of the business. Who exists outside of that? The people who own it, referred to in classical Marxist literature as the bourgeois.
There is no way a cashier can work their way up from their position to one that actually gives them ownership of land. Sure, they can work their way up in some fashion to a promotion or a job of higher ranking, but there is no way they can actually obtain ownership of land by "working hard."
The intricacies and management of capitalistic businesses actually have little to do with the Marxian critique of capitalism, which is more centered around the idea of class struggle (bourgeois, those who exist outside of that hierarchy, and the proletarians, the one inside that hierarchy).
"3: Despite its flaws, it is the best system in existence."
Care to elaborate on that?
Before capitalism took hold in Europe, I'm sure that feudal lords said the exact same thing. You can't claim that capitalism is superior to something that doesn't exist yet solely because it is prevalent today; sure, the iPhone 6s may be the "best" iphone in existence, but communist movements do not exist in the present. Communist movements exist in the future in order to supersede capitalism and to procure, analogically speaking, the iPhone 7 or some other variant.
Shifting gears here, the philosophical realm was more of what I was attempting to spark debate in here; I am totally fine with this continuing in an political-economic manner, but I would like to at least touch on the philosophical/epistemological sides of both arguments at some point in this debate.
Would you consider yourself to be an objectivist? Or are you aligned elsewhere

Node-RED provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together flows that can be deployed to the runtime in a single click.
The version running here has been customized for the IBM Internet of Things Foundation.
We strongly suggest you secure your Node-RED flow editor with a username and password, as otherwise anyone who can guess the URL of this application will be able to launch the flow editor and access your IoT device data.
To do this, follow the instructions that you find here.
Use Node-RED to build an application using the data from any device that you have connected to the IBM Internet of Things Foundation.
The sample has a ready-made flow that processes temperature readings from a simulated device. The flow checks these readings against a threshold, then tells you whether the temperature is safe. Imagine that we're monitoring a CPU temperature from a real device.
To work through the sample application, follow the IoTF starter application documentation.
Use the MAC address of any device that you have already connected to the IBM Internet of Things Foundation.There are recipes available for Raspberry Pi, ARM mbed, Intel Galileo and TI BeagleBone & SensorTag.
To view the complete list of IBM Internet of Things Foundation recipes go to the IBM IoT developerWorks site.
If your device is connected you can visualize your data on the IBM Internet of Things Foundation QuickStart.
This template instance of Node-RED is enough to get you started creating flows.
You may want to customise it for your needs, for example replacing this introduction page with your own, adding http authentication to the flow editor or adding new nodes to the palette.
To start customising your instance of Node-RED, you can either download the application locally or use IBM DevOps Services to edit and deploy your changes.
By default, the editor is open for anyone to access and modify flows. To password-protect the editor:

Growth and Reproductive Strategies of Freshwater Phytoplankton brings both the phycological (i.e. botanical) and limnological (i.e. ecological) literature into focus to reveal the morphological, reproductive and physiological characteristics of these microscopic organisms. Emphasis is on adaptive strategies for survival in stressful and seasonally changing aquatic habitats. The synthesis of this literature from an organismal and evolutionary perspective is unique. The following important groups of planktonic algae are considered: cyanobacteria, green algae, diatoms, dinoflagellates, cryptomonads, and chrysophyte flagellates. For each algal group, the importance of both growth and loss processes influencing biogeography and seasonality is emphasised. Where appropriate, the importance of sexual reproduction and benthic resting stages is considered. The final three chapters bring together data on three major ecological processes relevant to phytoplankton, i.e. resource competition, grazing by herbivorous zooplankton, and morphological and physiological 'packaging plans' of algal cells.
'Even with 25 years experience in phytoplankton ecology, I have learnt a lot from this book; I strongly recommend it to both 'old stagers' and young students of phytoplankton ecology ...' A. E. Bailey-Watts, Trends in Ecology and Evolution 'The book will provide researchers and postgraduate students alike with an excellent introduction to the ecological implications of the growth and life histories of the algae.'
