Suicide: U-Boat 873 Commander Friedrich Steinhoff
Suicide (from Latin sui caedere, to kill oneself) is the act of intentionally ending one's own life. It is considered a sin in many religions, and a crime in some jurisdictions. On the other hand, to some individuals it is viewed as an honorable way to exit certain shameful or hopeless situations. To be considered suicide, the death must be a central component and intention of the act, not just a certain consequence.

The obsessive coverage by newspapers, television, cable, bloggers and online news of high profile suicides eventually becomes old news when media attention focuses on the next news breaking story. But in its wake there is a treasure trove of historical documentation for future reporters and historians to discover patterns, similarities and hopefully, prevention of suicidal behavior.
It is presumed that Steinhoff was angry and embarrassed by his surrender and imprisonment. In hindsight, it is apparent that he may have viewed suicide as an honorable way to exit a shameful or hopeless situation.
Steinhoff, after several hours of interrogation, was found dead in his cell. Extant photographs of his capture reveals a man stoic and devoid of emotion. Transcripts of his interrogation describe him as arrogant and menacing. It was reported that Steinhoff, 35, committed suicide by breaking his eye glass spectacles and using a jagged piece of lens to sever the artery in one of his wrists. The doctor from U-873, Dr. Karl Steinke, tried to give first aid, but it was too late.
Steinhoff entered the German Navy in 1934 after having previously served in the Merchant Marine. His wartime experience consisted of duty on mine sweepers in Norwegian waters and two U-boat patrols. The U-873 was commissioned on 1 March 1944 and left on its first patrol on 17 February 1945. On 7 May 1945, while on course for operation patrol in the Caribbean, Steinhoff and his crew received news of Germany's capitulation ending the war.
|Steinhoff and crew after surrender
Steinhoff surrendered his ship and crew on 11 May 1945, and was escorted to the Navy Yard at Portsmouth, New Hampshire, arriving on 16 May 1945. The following day, the captain and his crew were taken Suffolk County Charles Street Jail in Boston for interrogation and disposition to POW camps. A journalist described the arrival of the prisoners reporting, "The crew was marched in handcuffs through the streets of Boston where they pelted with insults and garbage."
|Steinhoff after surrender
Soon after Steinhoff's suicide there were rumors that his death may have been an end result of the interrogation methods employed by the military. In particular, one rumor was that when Steinhoff was returned to his cell after his interrogation his face was visibly swollen and bleeding.
Military sources at the time believed that Steinhoff possessed information of primal importance regarding a German plan to launch V-1 missiles from the decks of submarines, and whether Germany may have shared this technology with Japan, with who the United States was still at war. Military officials defended the interrogation tactics as based on "well-known psychological principles." The interrogator admitted that he ordered a marine guard to slap Steinhoff, whom he described as, "a man of considerable physical proportions, threatening in his attitude and insolent in his demeanor, as well as extremely menacing and hysterically arrogant." However, to some the rumors surrounding Steinhoff's death indicated a treatment that contradicted the official statement.

The suicides of Steinhoff certainly meets the defining criteria for suicide. But unfortunately, suicide is poignant reminder of the truth that countless numbers of human beings have and will consider suicide as an honorable means to exit certain shameful and hopeless situations.

Easy Chicken PosolePosted: July 9, 2017 Filed under: Chicken Recipes, Gluten-free Recipes, Soup & Stew Recipes, Tex Mex/Mexican Recipes | Tags: chicken, food, hominy, posole, recipes Leave a comment
This is one of my all-time favorite meals. It's easy, delicious, comforting, and makes a big batch that ensures leftovers for future meals.
If you like your posole a little more on the brothy side, feel free to add an additional cup of water (or chicken broth) to the recipe.
Easy Chicken Posole
5 cups chicken broth
2 chicken breasts
2 poblano peppers, roasted, seeded, and chopped (or a 4 ounce can diced green chiles, drained or 3 jalapenos, seeded and chopped)
4 15.5 ounce cans white hominy, drained
1 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes (and their juices)
1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
salt and pepper, to taste
handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
grated cheese (I like cheddar)
shredded green cabbage
thinly sliced radishes
Bring 5 cups of chicken broth and the chicken breasts to boil in soup pot. Reduce heat slightly and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a cutting board and reserve the cooking liquid in the pot. Let the chicken cool.
Add the chopped roasted poblanos (or canned green chiles or chopped jalapenos), drained hominy, diced tomatoes (and their juices), Mexican oregano, and ground cumin to the reserved chicken broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Shred the chicken while the posole is coming to a boil. Once it does, added the shredded chicken and cook until the chicken is heated through, about 5 minutes. Season the posole to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the chopped cilantro and serve in bowls. Let everyone top their posole with cheese, shredded cabbage, and sliced radishes.

Calendula (calendula officials) Pot Marigold And Jasmine (jasmine officiale) Infused Oil
Calendula and Jasmine infused oils
Infused Oils are simply infusing the dried flowers in oil and then left to soak for several weeks , then the oils is used again with the fresh herb extract. (cold infusion). The oils can be used for massage oils or a basis for creams, ointments and soaps
I started my infusions by packing the flowers in a sterile pint jar then covered all the herb with organic olive oil making sure all the flowers were covered with an inch of oil on top.
I left it to sit for a week and then because I'm impatient decided to go ahead and do the Quick method which I'll explain. I put the jars of herbs into a slow cooker with a towel on the bottom to protect the jars and then filled the cooker with water to the half-way point of the jars with lids on tightly and placed the lid on the cooker and set at LOW temperature setting on 2-4 hours. Then removed the jars and let cool then strained into new sterile jars through a tea towel or cheese cloth and replaced with clean lids and your DONE! Remember to store in a cool dark place like a cupboard not close to heat!
Calendula is an antiseptic and anti fungal and can be used for cuts, scrapes, dry skin, inflammations and minor injuries. This made a mildly scented fragrance.
Makes a great cream for this purpose.
Jasmine is a fragrant floral herb with anticatarrhal, antidepressant, and antispasmodic properties. Other possible uses with coughs, eczema, menstrual pain and muscle spasms. The fragrance was weaker than I thought it would be, making me wonder if the herb was as fresh as it should have been; So heads up and double-check if you're ordering your herbs. Choose a reputable company for freshness and quality.
It is good for dry, greasy, irritated and sensitive skin. I can't wait to add to my homemade soaps!

How do we get employees to use enterprise social collaboration?
Enterprises are buying into social collaboration, but employees aren't going to jump onboard just because it's there.
We've tried and failed to implement enterprise social collaboration technology into our company time and again. How can we get employees on board with a new system?
It sounds like you haven't figured out what you want the collaboration system to do for you, and if you don't know, your employees won't figure it out on their own. What is the greater good that collaboration will provide? Are you incentivizing it? Capturing data and developing metrics? In new technology rollouts, we frequently see organizations buy technologies and then try figuring out how these technologies fit into the organization. That's fine, but often the "fitting in" requires some modification of a business process or two. So start over and ask what sales or service or production could do if it gave employees the ability to instantly communicate about a specific issue.
Be sure to keep in mind that communication without authority to act is worse than useless. Are the processes you want to build communication into going to function well if you don't also expand the authority you give your people? So, be sure to give your people the latitude they need to make decisions based on the communication capabilities you are granting them. Think of it as a safe harbor, and forgive all sins made in the name of hustle, as my old football coach might have said.
Finally, what other data or resources would your people need? That's how business processes get modified. Take an active part in adoption, especially troubleshooting and removing roadblocks associated with implementing new ideas.

Have you been told that Facebook marketing is a must for your business to survive? If you do not know what you must do, do not worry. This article will break down all there is to know about Facebook marketing.
When you are using Facebook for marketing, you must make your page stand out from among the crowd. You can accomplish this by including a lot of photos and making it very colorful. You can attract more followers with an attractive page.
Avoid allowing spam to take over your Facebook page. There are some filters that can be put into place if you can't monitor your site all of the time. Anyone with administrator privileges to your page has access to these filters.
Make your Facebook marketing page more efficient by using the custom tab options. The tabs let you organize your page information to make it easier for customers to navigate. For instance, your current giveaway can have its own tab that lets your followers know how things work.
Fan Base
Building a fan base is the first step in marketing through Facebook. This means you probably don't need to put a lot of money into your marketing until you're able to build up a fan base of 5,000 or more people. After that threshold has been reached, your conversion rate is going to start marching.
Why not buy an advertising space on Facebook? You can make it so that your ad is sent to certain kinds of people, like those that fall in your target market. If you have a budget, do as much as you want. One of the advantages is that a long term commitment is not required. You can take the ad off whenever you want to.
Know when it's okay to post something about your business when you're not on your personal Facebook page. Posting your opinion on Facebook profiles that you don't run can get your page some attention. You'll want to make sure that the attention you get is the type that you want. You always want to keep your posting professional and a reflection of your business. Don't resort to spam.
The information that you have just read will improve your knowledge of Facebook marketing and all that it entails. Sign into Facebook and use what you learned. The quicker you use Facebook for marketing, the quicker customers will be coming to your page. Begin right away!

The Health Ministry notification to include coronary stents in the National List of Essential Medicines (2015) is likely to weaken the industry sentiment further, according to FICCI. The government took the decision after the sub-committee looking into issues involving stents recommended their inclusion in the NLEM (2015).
"As the Indian medical device industry braces up for new opportunities, it remains tied up in the restrictive business environment. With the recent announcement on inclusion of coronary stent of all categories in National List of Essential Medicine the industry sentiment has further weakened," said FICCI in a press statement.
Pharmaceutical formulations and medical devices are two inherently different sectors and cannot be dealt with by the same formula. "Unilateral and unsuitable price controls on stents and medical devices will adversely affect the usage of innovative and high quality products in India and thus reduce the levels of patient outcomes. This will have an unfavourable impact on the Make in Indiaintentions and FDI inflow in the sector," said Probir Das, chairman, FICCI Medical Device Forum.
Industry feels that with the recent notification the access to latest technologies to patients in India is likely to be prohibited and will hugely impact both medical tourism which thrives on availability of latest medical technology, and clinical outcome for Indian patients. Attracting global investments for realising Make in India would need a mature handling of policy decisions for this sector, to keep investor sentiment high and a positive outlook on investing in India for this sector.
Das informed, "Innovation and incremental improvement is the foundation of the medical devices sector that has to regularly invest in research and development for upgrading medical technology for the benefit of the patients. Price controls create disincentive for manufacturers to bring new technology to market."
Stents are wire-like mesh that are inserted into blood vessels to remove blockages in patients having heart problem. There are various types of stents available in India such as old generation bare metal stents, drug-eluting stents (DES) and new-generation absorbable stents. Some consumer groups claim that doctors, hospitals and retailers charge high commission for stents increasing the cost of stents to ultimate user (ie patients). It is alleged that a stent with ex-factory cost of Rs 30,000 is sold at Rs 40,000-45,000 by distributor to a hospital, while the patient has to pay Rs 1,00,000 for the product. This prompted government to look at ways to bring price regulation of stents under the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority, which monitors the prices of medicines.
However, the industry experts believe that the price control will not improve access. "In no market around the world has access to high quality medical treatment improved without a combination of strong reimbursement mechanism and high quality medical technology adoption. It is time for the government, insurers, manufacturers, and providers to embrace common objectives and to acknowledge and fully support the crucial role of medical technology assessment in the enhancement of the quality of health care," FICCI added.

Stretch Forming and Bending of Aluminium Extrusions.
Aluminium Extrusion Design
Aluminium extrusion is an extremely flexible material which can be designed to incorporate many features which minimise the need for un-necessary, downstream manufacturing processes. This saving in cost can be enhanced further by designing an aluminium section with the minimum appropriate wall thickness to reduce weight.
ABL frequently helps its customers design aluminium extrusions and by getting involved in the early stages of product design can help ensure the optimal combination of alloy, profile design, downstream machining and finishing activities. This "holistic" approach will help deliver the most cost effective design as opposed to designing an extrusion in isolation and then looking at cnc machining, for instance, with assembly and finishing as afterthoughts.
ABL works in many different market sectors and, specialising in aluminium extrusions, combines the most appropriate design, machining processes and finishing to deliver high quality components and assemblies at competitive prices.
Aluminium Extrusion Sourcing
Although much of our extrusion is purchased in the UK and Europe, other customers with high volumes favour lower cost, Far Eastern mills. Alternatively we will provide a blended supply sourcing, say, prototypes and pre-production parts locally and bulk supply from further afield.
ABL purchases many tonnes of aluminium every year from extrusion mills across the world and each of these has specific technical capabilities. Our years of dealing with these mills allows us to ensure that we match your aluminium extrusions requirements for design, quality, lead time and cost to the most appropriate source.
In many instances, ABL acts as a stockholder allowing us to buy in large, economic batch quantities, store the aluminium extrusions in our secure warehouse and deliver finished components to our customers in much smaller, regular ship quantities. In this way our customers get the benefits of volume pricing without tying up their working capital and space carrying stock.
Aluminium Extrusion Fabrication
ABL Aluminium Components act as a "One-Stop Shop" for all fabrication, finishing and assembly of aluminium extrusions. The company invests significant sums to ensure its plant and equipment can produce high quality aluminium components at competitive rates. We also look to add processes to meet our customers' varied needs, the latest being the addition of a state of the art cnc aluminium forming machine.
Processing facilities include, saw cutting, brush and vibro de-bur, small and large component cnc machining up to 14m, press work, welding, mechanical assembly and adhesive bonding. We also offer in-house finishing facilities which include; polishing, anodising and powder coat. We believe we offer a greater range of aluminium extrusion processing facilities under one roof than any other company in the UK.
ABL puts great emphasis on quality and is certified to BS EN ISO 9001:2008 which will soon be re-assessed to ISO 9001:2015.
Aluminium Extrusion Finishing & Assembly
ABL aluminium components has over 40 years of anodising experience and is one of very few companies in the UK that combine fabrication, powder coat and anodising on the same site. To enhance your aluminium extrusion components we offer natural silver, black, gold and champagne finishes in a range of film thicknesses from AA3 to AA25. We can anodise components up to 2.7m in length and can meet the exacting quality standards set by customers in such varied sectors as automotive, cosmetic and medical industries.
Powder coat is the most widespread method of surface coating aluminium extrusions and provides an almost limitless choice of colours with excellent repeatability of colour matching. Principle benefits are; no risk of running or blistering, consistent surface appearance (colour and texture), the ability to withstand knocks and abrasions combined with good UV and corrosion resistance.

Ky-Mani Marley – Photos & Re-cap
Last Thursday, the second youngest of the Marley children, Ky-Mani Marley, came out to Denver to celebrate the 123rd birthday of Haile Selassie.
For those who have never been to Cervantes, it is one of Denver, Colorado's, most talked about music venues. Located in the 'Five Points' neighborhood just outside the downtown center, Cervantes is in the perfect location to draw a high energy, diverse, positive crowd to any shows.
Ky-Mani and his opening acts, Major Myjah and Denvers own, Tatanka, brought strictly positive vibes from the get-go. Through their heavy bass rhythms, each group successfully rocked the crowd and together, created an environment any reggae/hip-hop lover would be proud to be at.
Ganjaology had the pleasure of attending and photographing the Ky-Mani Marley show. Below are all original pictures of the night.
We want to say thanks to everyone who came out and made the night a special one!

The Tour Operator is then required to offer alternatives to the Traveler, which will maintain the nature of the trip as much as possible. The Tour Operator is obliged to reduce as much as possible any adverse consequences for the Traveler
12.2 The Tour Operator reserves the right to change an essential point of the conditions the trip and report it immediately to the Traveler.

12.6 If an amendment caused by the Tour Operator can be attributed to the provisions of Article 13 and the Traveler thereby suffers damage, the travel Tour Operator is obliged to compensate the damage. If the cause of the change can be attributed to the Traveler, these costs are borne by the Traveler.
Article 13 - Liability of the Tour Operator
13.1 Without prejudice to the provisions in articles 10 and 11, the Tour Operator is obliged to fulfill the contract in accordance with the expectations that the Traveler was reasonably entitled to have on the grounds of the contract.

1. shortcomings in the implementation of the travel agreement under circumstances which are attributable to the Traveler, including damages that result from the health condition of the passenger, or

14.2 If the Traveler causes such nuisance or inconvenience thereby making execution of the travel considerably more difficult, the Tour Operator can exclude the Traveller from further participation in the trip. Any resulting costs are borne by the Traveler if and insofar as the effects of nuisance and expense can be attributed to him.
14.3 The traveler is obliged to inform the service provider and/or the Tour Operator or his representative on site of every failure in the performance of the travel contract, in writing or in any other appropriate form as soon as possible.
14.4 The obligation of the travel company to provide the distressed traveler aid is severely hindered if it can not fall back on the help of the travel accident and baggage insurance? SOS center. The traveler is therefore required to have a full coverage insurance for the risks covered by the standard travel accident and baggage insurance.
Article 15 - Complaints
15.1 Possible complaints that cannot be resolved by the local representative at the destination and / or the place where the complaint arose, should submit in writing or feel in any other appropriate form and submit it to the Tour Operator and, if applicable, the provider, as soon as possible.

Issa: Latest Delay Shows Administration Unprepared for Obamacare Rollout
WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., issued the following statement in response to reports that the Administration will delay online enrollment for small-business exchanges.
"While President Obama was busy telling Americans that an increasingly unpopular law is 'here to stay,' 'sources' from his Administration were telling reporters that there would be yet another delay, this one denying small businesses the ability to enroll online through insurance exchanges. We already know that Obamacare is expensive, confusing, and raising health insurance costs for ordinary Americans. It is obvious that the Administration is just as unprepared for Obamacare's October 1st start date as the rest of the country. So far the White House has issued delay after delay for parts of the law they find inconvenient, however, American families and individuals who will bear the brunt of the law have gotten no such relief."
The Oversight Committee issued a staff report which found the Navigators and Assisters programs designed to enroll Americans in Obamacare pose huge risks for fraud, identity theft and lack proper safeguard to protect sensitive, personal information. You can read the full report here.

It is reasonably assumed that lighting is all about lights. The word 'illumination' implies that we exclusively focus on areas that are lit or brightened. Shade would only be the remainder of the areas we left untouched. Yet, this is not the way we should think about lighting. Notan is a Japanese word that means "lightness-darkness," and it encompasses one of the fundamental principles of composition in painting, photography, film and computer-generated imagery. This fundamental principle is that, like Ying and Yang, opposite forces are interconnected and interdependent. Actually, lightness and darkness are complementary, interacting to form a whole greater than the sum of their parts. With these concepts in mind, the motivating factor of this title is to bring more awareness to the infinite possibilities that the concept of darkness offers the artist. This seminar ranges from the general to very specific lighting techniques. We use Maya and Mental ray, but the concepts are applicable to any software or renderer. Technical topics include Light Falloff, Decay Regions, Intensity/Color Curves, Penumbra, Blockers, Barndoors, Gobos, Gels, Negative Lights, Light Linking, Shadow Lights and Global Illumination.

is a site that encourages people who are traveling through airports and elsewhere to be anonymous angels.
It really is as easy as anonymously covering a cup of coffee or meal to show thanks to those in harm's way. A very small gesture that will be remembered, and cherished, by soldiers who volunteer to put their lives on the line for all Americans.

Stiaan van Zyl hit an unbeaten century to guide Sussex to victory at Durham and said: This win means a lot to us
The South African showed what Sussex missed when he was out injured for most of last season as his 101 not out gave them a six-wicket victory, which went a long way to banishing memories of their opening match loss to Leicestershire.
The batsman said: "To get a hundred in the last innings on the last day, I'm very proud of it. It's a great win for us. I was out injured for a lot of last season and now to come back to get the win is very sweet.
"The Leicestershire game was disappointing. We let ourselves down there. That's why this win means a lot to us just to get that first win of the season. It's crucial for any team.
"Luke Wells saved up from 70-7 to get us back to only 22 behind - that was an unbelievable innings. It was a cold four days, but we knew that. To go through it and get a win was good for us and team morale.
"We knew if we got a partnership going this morning to get the runs to win below fifty we would see the body language in the field go down, then we could capitalise. The wicket was okay when the ball was softer. You just had to hang in there and get the runs."
Durham lead high performance coach James Franklin added: "We've had our chances there's no two ways about it. The game against Derbyshire we had them five down in the first session, and here we had Sussex 70-7. To end up on the losing side in both of those games is disappointing. The guys are hurting about that. We've had batting collapses as well, which is not great fun either. We've got plenty of scope to improve.
"It has been evident in our four innings this season that when we lose one, we can lose two or three quite quickly. Whether or not that is a little bit of reminiscence of what has been happening the last couple of years and we're suffering a hangover of that. I'm not too sure. What we can do now is reflect on how we want to go about our Championship cricket.
"We've got a nice break now into our one-day cricket. We've got a whole campaign there to quickly get our minds focused on in the next couple of days. When we get back to Championship cricket in May, we've got to be very clear on what we're about because these first two games aren't good enough."

Developing RA as a teenager meant that Shelly Spence, now 32, spent a lot of time explaining herself to teachers, other kids and potential dates. "With RA you often don't 'look sick' so you're always educating people about the disease and justifying your limitations. Luckily, my family always had pets that were there for unconditional, quiet support. With a dog there is no need to explain and you can just be."
"My cat has a nose for flare-ups"
In the 25 years that Leslie Vandever, 56, of Cameron Park, CA, has lived with RA, her dogs and cats have been amazing stress relievers. "My dogs always got me out of the house, but it's my cats that really knew when and where I needed comfort. One of them, my dear old tuxedo cat, used to actually snuggle up over whichever joint was hurting me most, providing deep, comforting warmth exactly where I needed it.
It always just amazed me how he seemed to know when and where I was hurting!" When he died, I didn't expect that my next cat would do the same but sure enough, my newest cat-friend, Mouse, a rescued Maine Coon cat, does exactly the same thing, snuggling as close as she can get to whatever joint is flaring and then purring her heart out!"
"My Jack Russell lifts my spirits with a show"
"People who have rheumatoid arthritis, like me, are more susceptible to depression, and you need to find ways to push against that," says Roberta Stenzel of Waseca, MN. "My dog, Buddy, who at age 3 still acts like a puppy, is so entertaining, he won't let me get the blues. How can you be depressed when the little guy is doing somersaults, begging or any of his other tricks?"
No pet? You can still enjoy the benefits!
Become a volunteer: That's the advice of Pia Silvani, vice president of training and behavior at St. Hubert's Animal Welfare Center in Madison, NJ. "Our volunteers walk dogs, spend time sitting and socializing with cats or become canine coaches, helping us train animals." Ask about programs at a local shelter, or visit paws.org.
· Sign up for a "dog vacay!" DogVacay.com is a new free site that connects you with pets in your neighborhood that need watching and walking. You can take your "weekend puppy" on a simple stroll or a rigorous hike; it's up to you. And you can earn a few bucks from the dog's owners, who will be relieved not to have to kennel their beloved animal.
· Go to the park and observe. Studies show folks who are close to animals spend more time thinking about the day-to-day and living in the here and now, says Aubrey H. Fine, author of Handbook on Animal-Assisted Therapy (Academic Press, 2010). And that includes simply watching animals. "They can teach us how to adjust to physical limitations," reveals Fine. "I had a patient who watched the perseverance of a bird who couldn't perch, and it helped put her adaptations in a new light for her."

I was lucky enough to receive a copy of Jamie Oliver's new cookbook for Christmas this year. While a cook book titled Everyday Superfoods usually wouldn't grab my attention, the fact that every single recipe in there is gestational diabetes friendly certainly does!
Jamie Oliver is on another crusade and this time it's focused on superfoods. In particular healthy everyday meals that are delicious.
The great news for mums-to-be with gestational diabetes (like myself), is that every meal in Oliver's Everyday Superfoods fits within the professionally recommended levels of carbs, protein and dairy that both keep you full and keep your blood sugar readings at the right level.
Not to mention there are some terrific recipes in there!
But it's not only the right balance of food that's great for mums-to-be with gestational diabetes. But in Everyday Superfoods, each recipe has the nutritional facts underneath so you know exactly how many carbs you are eating per serve (with most recipes being between 1 & 2 servings of carbs per meal).
Plus, there's good quality nutritional information in the back of Oliver's cookbook including a section titled Celebrating Good Carbohydrates, which explains, in really simple way, how carbs work and why eating the right balance of carbs is essential for good health.
Of course, Everyday Superfoods is also great for any mum who is conscious about what they eat and their general health & wellbeing (and there's hardly any kale, so don't be fooled by the title!).
Everyday Superfoods is priced at around $36 (depending on where you buy it) and is widely available online and in most department and bookstores.
Tonight hubby is making Tasty Samosas, 1 serve of carbs each. Yum!

We've never been good with birthdays, so don't be mad at us that we're a day late. Yesterday, our dear friend, who happens to be a fantastic entertainer and time-waster extraordinaire (and is also kinda easy on the eyes), turned six. Happy Birthday, YouTube! You don't look a day over three.
What to get the site that has everything? It was no easy feat. First, we thought about getting you a shirt. The one we had in mind would have looked great on, but we know you, and you would have returned it. Then we thought about just baking you a cake, but you can get so weird about gluten sometimes. So in honor of your sixth year on this planet, we decided to share six of your 10 most popular videos of all time with our readers instead -- of course, we picked the ones we thought our viewers would like the best!
Congrats, YouTube! You've come a long way! Here's to 60 more!
Justin Bieber, Baby ft. Ludacris: 550,350,248 views. Gasp! There is a lot of Bieber love out there. And it's all because of you, YouTube. Well, not all, but some.
Lady Gaga, Bad Romance: 381,758,898 views. Guess you can't say the music video is dead. Both of these videos -- individually -- have more clicks than there are people in the United States. That's a lot of clicks, guys.
Shakira, Waka Waka (This Time for Africa): 345,958,945 views. No wonder it's the official FIFA 2010 World Cup song -- a crapload of people like it!
Charlie Bit My Finger -- Again!: 327,201,117 views. One of the greatest baby videos of all time. Thanks for sharing, YouTube.
Justin Bieber, One Time: 243,841,295 views. Are you guys seeing a pattern here? Human beings love babies and Justin Bieber.
The Tootin' Bathtub Baby Cousins: 188,021,643 views. Another cute baby video. Not exactly my cup of tea, but hey, different strokes.
What is your favorite YouTube video of all time?

People from around the world visit the sacred mountain of Japanese Shingon Buddhism for various reasons. Young and old western tourists come to experience the modern-popular "zen" ambiance exotic to the great tradition of Greek philosophy; Buddhists go on a pilgrimage; people like me who are in between – speak a little Japanese and learnt a little about Buddhist teachings but really nothing more – probably visited out of curiosity, or a pathetic desire to escape the fuss of city life for literally, calmness in the mountains.
Like everywhere else I have been, I didn't have a noble reason to visit Koyasan and I wouldn't pretend that I did just because I learnt something after the trip. But Koyasan is a noble place. It is sacred but welcoming anyone who is interested in learning or developing their spirituality. All visitors of Koyasan stay in one of the 50+ temples, where they follow local rules and customs, be it Buddhist (e.g. vegetarian diet) or Japanese (e.g. no shoes on tatami). It was intimidating when the monk suddenly asks you a question in Japanese, or when you don't know how to sit to eat in the common dining hall, but they are all part of an authentic experience. Pure with little additives, just like the local Shojin ryori.
From Kansai International Airport, I travelled for almost 4 hours on trains (JR to Wakayama, JR to Hashimoto, Nankai Electric Railway to Gokurakubashi) before reaching the cable car station to Koyasan. It was the end of March and schools would start spring break very soon. Halfway on the Nankai railway journey, all other passengers had left and there remained only me and the train staff, always doing their job no matter how many passengers are on board. Finally, I arrived at my temple lodging. It was past admission time and I wasn't expecting any service or meals. Fortunately, the monk kindly showed me around the temple and offered dinner which was still warm and delicious. I could even use the hot bath although I was late, before they turned the lights off for all guests to rest.
Then, quietly, morning came.
This photo was taken at 3pm but it was basically what I woke up to. Small trees, rocks and a pond make a nice garden inside the temple. In the pond a small mill keeps the water running and always alive. Maybe it's man-made nature, but it was a view I always wanted from my room, but never had a chance to enjoy until now.
In the morning I could finally see how the entrance to my temple lodging looks like. When I arrived it was already 8pm, and the night in March was really dark.
From this photo you could tell that it wasn't a very bright day. Even the tree leaves looked cold but it was interesting to see the contrast of something really old (the temple's architecture and maybe the tree too) and something relatively modern (the paved and painted road, and the van).
A stream on the bridge Ichi no hashi to Okunoin.
The entrance to Okunoin. It's believed that the great master Kobo Daishi awaits and welcomes his visitors on the bridge sometimes with a kind smile. So I took a bow and entered with respect and seriousness.
This is a memorial set up by Japanese soldiers who fought in WWII in remembrance of their comrades who died in the war. Looking back, the war had done no one good and it was sad to realise that many of their friends they joined the army with died on the battlefield. All they want now is world peace, and this is just a memorial for their peers who didn't survive.
The red sign reads "Special Seed Trees". The Great Forest of Japanese Cedar in Okunoin composes of trees from 200-600 years old, and has been registered as a prefectural natural monument of Wakayama. There are 1300 trees and some are as tall as 50m. The Special Seed Trees are those that are in good health, which provides excellent quality wood and seeds.
The Mausoleum of Uesugi Kenshin. Uesugi Kenshin was a feudal load in the 1500s.
A grave for one of the temples – well protected by the great old cedar trees, next to the Mausoleum – I believe this is great "fengshui" and the temple's has chosen a great spot.
A family grave and I took a photo because it shows the classic arrangement of monumental rocks in Japanese Buddhism which presents the 5 elements : Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Atmosphere.
A small water fountain/ tap, usually present outside Japanese temples for rinsing your hands before entering. A ritual similar to other religions like Islam, which makes me think how dirty our daily selves really are, both spiritually and physically.
A memorial for the victims of the Kanto earthquake in 1923.
A monk walking freely and fastly (with his belongings and a really cool outfit).
A Manichaeist temple/ museum which first caught my attention not because of the religion, but the bright contrast of red, white and colour on the wall. The master of a temple established the architecture in memorial of the soldiers who died in the war in Burma during WWII, as he had seen it before his very own eyes when he was studying Buddhism in Burma. Photographs of war and Buddhist statues from around the world are presented and an underground experience invites visitors to meet the Buddha.
One of the 50+ temple lodgings that bears the name of lily.
Walking towards a natural park but I gave up because it got darker and colder.
Unfortunately these photos don't represent all of my experience in Koyasan for two reasons – the weather wasn't always good for film pictures and much of the depth of my inner reflections while I was there couldn't really be captured by a camera (with my current photographic skills). When I was resting in my room in the temple, when I was walking through the cedar forest passage to Okunoin (where Kobo Daishi's spirit resides), when I was only stepping in a local store … I became aware of my mind, my thoughts, my words and my actions just because it was such a tranquil and disciplined environment. Even though my knowledge on (Japanese) Buddhism is still limited, I was inspired to learn more because for the two days there I was able to relax, reflect on my past and clear up my mind for something new that could contribute to my spirituality.
Koyasan is a really special place and maybe the most special among where I visited. Although I have been always honest on this blog I'd like to keep some of these reflections to myself (not many people are that interested anyway I assume). What I would conclude is that even I wasn't able to visit Koyasan for a sacred reason, I am glad I wasn't one of those who visited just for a exotic zen experience. It's good to have an open mind when travelling and visiting especially places of spirituality, but an empty mind is a different thing. An open mind allows you to be inspired even it may have little effect on your beliefs at the end; but an empty mind leaves you the shame of not being able to take what Koyasan has to offer with its history, heritage, well-preserved natural environment and a friendly, welcoming Japanese Buddhist community.

1. Re: what are the Different types of VisualizationMarc Fernandes Dec 24, 2013 7:10 AM (in response to Srinivas Anupoju)
That's a very difficult question to answer. It's a bit like asking what is the best food or best song ever. It will greatly depend on the context. In this case, the best visualization is the one that answers the question you were asking most succinctly and effectively. The types and variations of visualizations are endless and since it appears that you're at the beginning of the trek, let me give you a few resources to get started:
A nice basic guide to choosing the right chart:
How to Choose the Best Chart for Your Data
Getting started with visualization:
More free resources:
Viz of the day:
Viz of the Day | Tableau Public
These are just a few of the many resources out there. My best advice for you is to constantly look at what other people are doing, talk to others about how they do it, and try it on your own.
2. Re: what are the Different types of VisualizationShawn Wallwork Dec 24, 2013 7:27 AM (in response to Srinivas Anupoju)
What Marc said. And add the Team Geiger workbook to the list, because it shows you how to accomplish the various viz types in Tableau.

For a cookie exchange Dec 7, 2013
Would make this again.
I had to make these without nuts because of allergies, but they were still pretty good. Not cookie texture though - more cake like. I'm sure they'd be great with the nuts in! I doubled the recipe and got about 40 squares out of it. 4 stars

I made these for the cookie exchange & they were a big hit! Everyone wanted the recipe. They took longer to bake than in the recipe (24 min)& I suggest making the frosting after the bars have cooled. 5 stars
