Easy to use:
Sprinkle the Cristaux d'huiles essentielles¨ (Essential oil crystals) directly on to your preparations, as you would spices or seasonings. For hot dishes, prefer the last stages of cooking, or directly on to the plate before serving.
The crystals can be also prepared in the form of vinegars, flavoured oils and syrups. A brilliant idea to aromatize water : directly in your glass or in water to cool in the fridge.
Powerful and economical: just a pinch between your thumb and index finger per person is enough, depending on what you are cooking, meaning there are roughly 500 individual doses per jar!
"Healthy and delicious: Cristaux d'huiles essentielles¨ (Essential oil crystals) are crystallised blue agave pulp steeped in essential oils of the finest food-grade quality. The result is 100% organic, natural and plant-based, a concentration of goodness for your health.
Essential oils have recognised health benefits. The polysaccharides in blue agave are prebiotics in their natural state, which encourage the development of intestinal flora and help regulate digestion.
The pleasure involved in these delicious flavours can replace the often excessive use of sugar and salt, helping you keep in shape and stay healthy."

Before the big show this weekend (Jean-Pierre Jeunet on Micmacs and George Romero on Survival of the Dead, yippee!), here's a bonus episode focusing on a special, short documentary that HBO will be debuting next Monday, May 24th, at 9 PM, eastern time.
It's called The Lazarus Effect, it was produced in cooperation with (RED), a private sector organization that works with the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria to help curb the spread of HIV/AIDS in Africa. At the behest of Spike Jonze, who executive produced, filmmaker Lance Bangs (David Cross: Bigger and Blackerer; The Black Keys Live At The Crystal Ballroom) traveled to Lusaka, Zambia, and met with the men, women, and children who are being treated with antiretroviral (ARV) drugs provided by these funds. Over the span of months, Bangs captured some dramatic before-and-after footage showing how these people's lives were being restored by the treatments -- the so-called Lazarus Effect. It's moving stuff, particularly for a film that runs just over thirty minutes.
Director Bangs spared a few minutes to talk with us about the experience of capturing these near-miracles on film, and also of exploring how help is still desperately needed. Click on the player to hear the interview.

Are you hunting for particular road signs, or do you want a mix of marks? Before you hit the road, lay out the rules. Are you willing to interact with other people on the road, or do you simply want to spot a series of sights along the way? No matter which method you choose, be sure to lay out the rules clearly so everyone in the car understands them before taking off. That way, no petty arguments will occur.
You're going to need a way to document that you did, in fact, see what you claim to have seen on your scavenger hunt. Say, for example, you're looking to scavenge a sign advertising frozen yogurt. Whip out your camera to capture the moment and hush all naysayers who missed their opportunity. If your crowd is willing to interact with other people on the road, you're going to need a camera as well. If you pull into a rest stop and you find a person wearing the green T-shirt on your list, you're going to need proof for the rest of your party.
Great marks include getting people from another car to give you a thumbs-up, getting them to crack a smile or getting them to give you something from their car. If you're at a stoplight, giving people a wave is usually enough to get them to crack a smile. Getting them to roll down their window and give you a gum wrapper from their car is a little more difficult, however. Test your scavenger-hunt fortitude by starting small and working your way up. You'll start to build your social confidence little by little. Eventually, when people in other cars start ignoring you, it won't be as hurtful.
If your scavenger hunt requires buying silly things at rest stops, set a budget of five to 10 dollars and give that amount to each player. That way, everyone (even kids) is on a level playing field and no one has to worry about spending money on an unaffordable souvenir shot glass.

ARTSBEAT; Axl Rose Declines Rock Hall Induction
By BEN SISARIO
Published: April 13, 2012
The biggest question hanging over the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony this weekend has been answered: Axl Rose has said he would not attend the event, and therefore there would be no reunion of the classic lineup of Guns N' Roses.
Mr. Rose delivered the news in a 1,000-word open letter sent to The Los Angeles Times, which the paper published online in its entirety on Wednesday afternoon. In the letter -- addressed to ''The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Guns N' Roses Fans and Whom It May Concern'' -- he announces and, at elaborate length, explains his decision to decline the induction and to avoid the ceremony, which will be held in Cleveland on Saturday.
''I strongly request that I not be inducted in absentia,'' Mr. Rose wrote, ''and please know that no one is authorized nor may anyone be permitted to accept any induction for me or speak on my behalf. Neither former members, label representatives nor the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should imply whether directly, indirectly or by omission that I am included in any purported induction of 'Guns N' Roses.'''
Guns N' Roses was founded in Los Angeles in 1985, with a lineup settling on Mr. Rose, Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagan and Steven Adler. Most members departed by the mid-1990s, with Slash, the lead guitarist, leaving in 1996. In the meantime, Mr. Rose retained the name of the band and took at least 14 years and perhaps more than $13 million to make a follow-up album, ''Chinese Democracy,'' which was finally released in 2008 and flopped.
Summarizing Mr. Rose's letter may be impossible, but his reasoning in turning down the rock hall appears to go something like this:
He was ''honored'' to be nominated but knows that an induction would be ''somewhat of a complicated or awkward situation''; his decision was ''personal,'' and has to do with past members of Guns N' Roses; he asserts that the current lineup of the band includes only ''myself, Dizzy Reed, Tommy Stinson, Frank Ferrer, Richard Fortus, Chris Pitman, Ron 'Bumblefoot' Thal and DJ Ashba,'' despite the occasional appearance of an original member on tour; the ''endless amount of revisionism'' of Guns N' Roses history is so complicated that ''there isn't room to consider a conversation let alone a reunion''; despite the honor of being nominated, he feels that ''the Hall of Fame induction ceremony doesn't appear to be somewhere I'm actually wanted or respected''; it's ''time to move on''; and something about surviving ''the greed of this industry and the ever present seemingly limitless supply of wannabes and unscrupulous, irresponsible media types.''
In closing, he added: ''I wish the Hall a great show, congratulations to all the other artists being inducted and to our fans we look forward to seeing you on tour!!''
Slash was not mentioned.
This is a more complete version of the story than the one that appeared in print.

Thousands of homeowners and small business owners have used SNOWSPORT® Utility Plows to clear their driveways and parking lots each winter. The low-maintenance design allows our customers to count on their SNOWSPORT® Snow Plows year after year.
These snow plows for pick-up trucks and SUVs use a simple mechanism to operate without electrical connections or hydraulic parts. Driving forward engages the plow to cut into and push snow away. Backing up makes the blade lie back, skimming over the terrain. When the driver is ready to make another pass, driving forward re-engages the blade to push snow again.
SNOWSPORT® Utility Plows feature rustproof aluminum blades with rubber cutting edges to protect concrete and gravel from being damaged by plowing. We offer snow plow accessories like our SNOWSPORT™ Hold Down Strap to provide extra downward pressure on heavy snow and ice. We also offer replacement parts for our utility plows which you can order easily at our online shop.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- FirstEnergy Corp. expects to restore electricity by late Friday to a majority of its remaining West Virginia customers who lost service due to Superstorm Sandy.
The utility reports 26,275 outages as of 6:30 a.m. Tuesday. That's down from a peak of 210,000. Preston County has the most remaining outages with about 7,500.
FirstEnergy says customers in the most heavily damaged areas may not regain electricity until the weekend.
Appalachian Power's website didn't show any outages Tuesday morning. The utility said Monday that it expected to restore power to all customers affected by the storm overnight.

Eliaquim Mangala has admitted he is not "100% fit" following his £32m transfer from Porto to Manchester City, the France central defender having taken a post-World Cup break.
On Monday the champions finally confirmed Mangala as their most expensive buy of the summer after a protracted period that began in the January transfer window.
Mangala, 24, joins Vincent Kompany, Sergio Agüero, Pablo Zabaleta, Martin Demichelis, Bacary Sagna, Fernandinho, Joe Hart and James Milner as players whose availability for Sunday's opening Premier League fixture at Newcastle United is in the balance owing to their Brazil 2014 commitments.
Asked if he had trained while waiting for the transfer to be completed, Mangala said: "I went on a run every day and trained in the gym. Holidays are great but if the time is too long, it is difficult to come back. I think that I will need a bit of time to be 100% but it is normal. It is like those who returned to training last week but I will work hard in order to be 100% as soon as possible.
"I am happy now because I will be able to start a new adventure. I will be able to train again. I am really very happy to be part of the team and I will work hard because we have lots of goals and it is very important to start to work as soon as possible."
Mangala then outlined his reasons for joining City. "First City is a big team in England and they proved it again this year by winning the title," he said. "Then it is the team that shows me the most interest. I had the opportunity to talk with the manager and the football director and it is also important to have some guarantees when you move to a new club. I had this opportunity to talk and I liked what they said so I signed with City.
"[And] the project and the squad as well.. The squad is great so it will allow me to progress again. I am also someone who likes to win titles and I know that with the squad we have we can do great things."
Pellegrini has bought Mangala to play alongside Kompany and City's latest signing was not slow in listing his own qualities. He said: "I am quite a fast defender. I am good in challenges, good in the air. I have the ability to score goals and have done so in the past few seasons. I do not score 10 goals per season but for a defender I get my share from set pieces and I think it can sometimes be a plus during certain games that are more difficult. Set-pieces are really important.
"When I am on the pitch, I always give everything from the first to the last minute. I am the kind of player that comes on the pitch to win. I am not giving away anything, I always fight until the end and I hope that we will win quite a lot of titles this season."

Dragon Racing's new driver Sebastian Saavedra and veteran Sebastien Bourdais had a good time during their first test as team-mates at Sebring International Raceway.
Less than a week after being named to complete the two-car Dragon Racing entry for the 19-race IZOD IndyCar Series season, Saavedra participated at the team's first on-track session of the new year. The Colombian will join Bourdais in testing on February 27 at Sonoma Raceway.
"It's the first contact with the team – the mechanics, the engineers and Seb as well – so it was very important to create a relationship as they'll become your family during the season. From that aspect that was great," Saavedra was quoted as saying by IndyCar.com. The 22-year-old driver believes he will make a competitive team with Bourdais.
"We're looking very good and looking to make things happen with Seb, and I believe we're a good combination to push each other," Saavedra said. He has 19 IZOD IndyCar Series starts over the past three seasons, with a career-best finish of 11th with Conquest Racing at the Brazil race in 2011.
Four-time Champ Car champion Sebastien Bourdais set up the car in the morning session and monitored Saavedra's feedback during the afternoon. "He's got experience; he's not a newcomer feedback. He's done a full season already and downgraded last year, but sometimes it's good to take a step back to come back stronger," Bourdais said.

What is the Echoesverse?
The Echoesverse is the nickname coined by the authors for the universe Echoes of the Gods (EotG) and its related stories are set in.
EotG and its related works are fanfiction, heavily based in the Harry Potter universe (pre book 6), but with a dash of a few others, and some original characters thrown in as well. With the exception of the Harry Potter universe, story cannon is often twisted to suit our own purposes.
Summary: Set shortly after Harry's 17th birthday. Harry and Draco are together and living with some familiar and not so familiar characters. What does the coming year have in store for them and their unlikely companions? More then they probably ever realised.
A story involving wizards, vampires and elves, to name a few, where plot twists abound. While not a Harry/Draco centric story, the pair are quite important in the overall plot.

May 23, 2011 - One-year results from the 278-patient multi-center, prospective, single-arm study conducted at 16 sites in Europe and Israel were presented today at the EuroPCR 2011 Congress in Paris. These results reinforce the outcomes observed with the "Next Generation" Presillon Plus (PioNIR) cobalt chromium bare metal stent systems at 9-month followup, which was the primary endpoint of the PioNIR study.
The Presillon Plus features important technological advances designed to help restore the artery's natural form, support it to minimize the probability of restenosis and ensure easier access to distal lesions.
The data were presented by Dr. Stefan Hoffmann, Vivantes Klinikum im Friedrichshain, Berlin, Germany, during the EuroPCR session on registries of new generation bare metal stents.
Target lesion revascularization (TLR) at one year was 6.3% and target vessel revascularization (TVR) was 8.1% at one year post-procedure. A total of 278 patients were enrolled with a mean age of 65.5 years, 20.5% were diabetic, 27.8% had a history of MI and 36.2% had a history of previous percutaneous coronary intervention. Device success was achieved in 98.2% of patients. The primary endpoint of TVF defined as cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI) or clinically driven TVR within 270 days post-procedure was 8.9% at 9 months, substantially less than the 16.46% performance goal derived using a meta-analysis of the standard-of-care therapy, coronary stenting with bare metal stents. Target vessel MI was 3.3% at one year post-procedure. The overall rate of stent thrombosis was 0.7% at discharge and 1.1% up to one year post-procedure. There was no stent thrombosis observed after 30 days. The PioNIR study was conducted to support a PMA in the United States.
Presillon Plus is the only stent on the market with an adaptive closed cell design that is capable of differential cell lengthening. This enables the stent to be flexible in the unexpanded configuration and optimally support the vessel while conforming to the natural curve of the vessel in the expanded configuration.
The Presillon Plus stent is approved in more than 100 countries worldwide.
The product is not yet available in the U.S. market and is pending PMA approval.

Scherer) announces the fourth GENEVA EMOTION WEEK (GEW'96), consisting of: a colloquium focusing on a major topic in the psychology of emotion (May 16 & 17). a series of workshops designed to introduce participants to advanced research methods in the field of emotion (May 18 & 19). The theme chosen for the GEW'96 is: NEUROSCIENCE APPROACHES TO EMOTION The intention of GEW'96 is to bring together researchers from diverse disciplines, including psychology, psychiatry, neurology, and other neurosciences, who share an interest in the neural architectures and processes underlying emotion and affective disturbances. GEW'96 is organized in collaboration with the Neurology Department at the University of Geneva Medical School (dir. Prof. T. Landis). The colloquium consists of extensive presentations of theoretical and methodological approaches and of recent empirical work by a group of invited speakers and faculty members of the University of Geneva. Ample time is allotted for discussion. Speakers and topics of the colloquium: Prof. Richard Davidson, University of Wisconsin: "Affect, affective style and affective disorders: Hemispheric substrates." Prof. Robert Robinson, University of Iowa: "What lesion studies can tell us about the mechanism of emotion in major mood disorders." Prof. Diana van Lancker, University of Southern California: "The role of emotion in language and communication disorders." Dr. Marianne Regard, Priv.Doc. & Prof. Theodor Landis, University of Zürich & University of Geneva: "Cerebral organization of emotions." The workshops, to be conducted by the organizers and the invited speakers, will be dedicated to an in-depth treatment of methodology or a specific research paradigm. Each day of the workshop period will end with a session for posters, demonstrations, videos, and individual discussions. The topics of the invited workshops, each lasting approximately 3 hours, are: Prof. Richard Davidson, University of Wisconsin: "Methodological strategies in the study of the neural substrates of emotion in humans: From behavior to neuroimaging." Prof. Robert Robinson, University of Iowa: "The neuroanatomical correlates of emotional change in apathy, catastrophic reaction, aprosody, anosognosia." Prof. Diana van Lancker, University of Southern California: "Neurolinguistic studies of prosody." Dr. Marianne Regard, Priv.Doc. & Prof. Theodor Landis, University of Zürich & University of Geneva: "Experimental approaches in neuropsychology to investigate emotional processes." Prospective participants are researchers or doctoral students working in the neurosciences, psychology, or psychiatry.

Inside of this combination 20-foot long shipping container and truck is Del Popolo's wood-fired oven, where the pizza truck makes some of San Francisco's finest Neapolitan-inspired pizzas. The operation is totally transparent, literally, with the truck holding just enough room for the oven, a counter, and the register, and the entire length made of windows that open onto the street allowing customers to see their pizza as it's made. Owner Jon Darsky spent $180,000 converting the truck to suit his particular needs.

Dear Secretary Salazar,
We have received your letter, dated June 10, 2011, seeking our input to "identify BLM-managed public lands where there is strong support in the local community and among elected officials for permanent protection." We appreciate your recognition of Congress' role in any wilderness discussion and taking the time to ask for our opinion. The unique landscapes of the west add to the quality of life for those who have the opportunity to enjoy them. However, the content of your letter indicates that you have not fully understood our concerns, or the concerns of our constituents, regarding expansion of wilderness in the west, nor does it show an understanding for the economic crises in which our country and region is currently mired.
As members of the Western Caucus, our top priority is the creation and sustainability of jobs. Individually and collectively we have introduced and cosponsored dozens of pieces of legislation to improve the economic environment in the west. This includes legislation to release Wilderness Study Areas (WSA) and so-called roadless areas; to advance responsible energy development; to expedite fuels reduction work on beetle ravaged forests; to relieve the tax and regulatory burden on farmers and ranchers; to advance the country's position with respect to rare earth, critical minerals, and other hard-rock0mining; to help your agency crawl out from under the constant onslaught of litigation; to increase timber sales; and many others.
From the content of your letter, we can only conclude that the Department of interior remains intent on spending its time and limited resources on efforts to hinder job creation in the west. While it may be possible in some cases for new wilderness areas to result in economic benefit and new jobs, often that is not the result. Further, in the few wilderness protections, we trust the Member of Congress representing the area in question to advance that cause consistent with the Wilderness Act of 1964. After all, the designation of Wilderness is solely the purview of Congress - it is not the job of the Department of the Interior to "build a strong, bipartisan wilderness agenda."
Given this, and in response to your letter, we write today with a counterproposal. To help inform our efforts at job creation, we respectfully ask that you help identify legislative proposals we have put forward that the Department of Interior could support to create jobs in the West. For example, the Department could identify BLM WSAs to release for multiple uses. The Department could remove burdensome and unnecessary delays imposed by Master Leasing Plans in order to advance domestic energy production. The Department could allow the current Resources management Plan process to dictate land-use decisions on areas with so-called "wilderness characteristics," rather than pushing duplicative plans that only serve to confuse, divide, and delay economic growth. These are just a few.
The areas we represent are poised to be economic drivers for our country, but only if the Department of the Interior is a willing partner. Responsible energy development and access to traditional uses of public lands will help to create jobs and stabilize our economy to far greater effect than any "wilderness agenda" could hope to achieve. Towards this end, we invite you and selected staff to discuss this directly with us at a joint meeting of the Western Caucuses. We look forward to hearing how you can work with us to build jobs and restore the nation's economy.

FAMILIES are being urged to dispose of their food waste responsibly as the holiday season looms large on the horizon.
Blaenau Gwent Council have called on residents to bin their unwanted food separately from other materials in a bid to help the environment.
The local authority currently runs a waste collection service which is taken from kerbsides on a weekly basis.
But the dates over the festive period are set to change as the bank holiday hits.
Executive Member for Environment and Community Safety, Coun Keith Hayden, said: "In the UK we consume approximately 10 million turkeys over the Christmas period.
"It makes sense to safely dispose of this type of waste [your turkey carcass] and all other food waste responsibly.
"It really is easy and just means separating your food waste into a caddy to ensure it gets disposed of in an environmentally friendly way by your council."
Most people in Blaenau Gwent will be enjoying more food over the festive period, which inevitably means unavoidable food waste yuletide plate scrapings and vegetable peelings.
During the Christmas holiday period, refuse and recycling collections will alter as workers take time off.
If you have any queries regarding your collections, get in touch with the Council's Contact Centre, C2BG, on 01495 311 556 or firstname.lastname@example.com
List of changes to collection days:
Monday, December 24 (Christmas Eve) – Collection as normal
Tuesday, December 25 (Christmas Day) – Changes to Thursday, December 27
Wednesday, December 26 – Changes to Friday, December 28
Thursday, December 27 – Changes to Saturday, December 29
Friday, December 28 – Changes to Sunday, December 30
Monday, December 31 (New Year's Eve) – Collection as normal
Tuesday, January 1 (New Year's Day) – Changes to Wednesday, January 2
Wednesday, January 2 – Changes to Thursday, January 3
Thursday, January 3 – Changes to Friday, January 4
Friday, January 4 – Changes to Saturday, January 5
From Monday, January 7 – 2013 all refuse and recycling collections return to normal.

Jackals Flush the Royals
February 6, 2013 - ECHL (ECHL) - Elmira Jackals News Release
ELMIRA, N.Y. - February 6, 2013 - The Elmira Jackals battled back from a 4-1 deficit to claim a 6-4 win over the conference-leading Reading Royals on Wednesday night at First Arena. The win was Elmira's second straight and improved the Jackals to 24-18-4 on the season.
The Jackals came out strong in the first period and built up a healthy shot advantage over the Royals during the opening 10 minutes. But goalie Brandon Anderson was dialed in during the early stages and kept the Jackals from claiming the first goal. It turned out to be a former Jackal that struck first as Yannick Tifu found some open ice on the right wing to close in on goalie Maxime Clermont. Tifu's shot was partially deflected by a Jackals defender but still fluttered over Clermont's shoulder at 16:33 to put Reading in the driver's seat. Clermont kept the Jackals within striking distance by stopping nine of the 10 shots he faced, but Anderson thwarted each of Elmira's 11 tries at the other end.
The second period saw the scoring increase to a break-neck pace with Reading coming out on top with three of the four goals scored within 2:22 of one another. Mark Mitera began the barrage with a 5-on-3 power play goal for the Royals as he one-timed a cross-ice feed from Alex Berry. That goal prompted a goalie change for Elmira as Ian Keserich came on in relief. The change sparked the Jackals' offense as Louie Caporusso set up Andrew Rowe's first shorthanded goal of the season off of the ensuing faceoff. Reading responded, however, with Stanislav Galiev netting a 5-on-4 power play goal 23 seconds after Rowe's strike. Just moments later a Jackals turnover lead to a Reading 3-on-1 rush from the blue line in and resulted in an Ian O'Connor goal.
The Jackals refused to wilt, though, and started their comeback with a Kevin Harvey power play goal at 14:05. They continued to pick up momentum 1:54 later when Jordon Southorn beat a defender in open ice and wristed a shot past Anderson from the left wing to get Elmira within one at 4-3. Despite being outshot 17-6 in the second the Jackals went into the third down just one.
Elmira out-scored Reading 4-0 in the third period in picking up a 5-2 comeback win in Reading on January 21. Tonight they netted three markers to Reading's none to cap their comeback. Jordan Pietrus snapped home his eighth of the season from close range to knot the score with 9:15 remaining in the contest. Shortly after Louie Caporusso was set up by Rowe and newcomer Ryan Palmer for his 19th to put Elmira in front for the first time. The goal extended Caporusso's goal streak to a career-best five games. The Jackals sealed the win when captain Jean Bourbeau hit an empty net, with the Jackals on the power play, at 18:48. Reading had a power play for the final 1:06 but no scoring materialized from it.
Keserich earned his third win of the season in stopping 22 of the 24 shots he faced. The Jackals ended the game 2-for-4 on the power play and 3-for-5 on the penalty kill.
Mark your calendars! The Jackals are back on First Arena ice on Friday, February 8, 2013 to take on the Kalamazoo Wings at 7:05 p.m. The Jackals will be giving away ice scrapers courtesy of First Heritage Federal Credit Union to the first 2,000 fans through the door. Groups of 10 or more are eligible for discounted tickets and preferred seating based on availability.Call 607-734-7825 to book your group outing. Pro-rated season ticket packages are on sale, as well. Season tickets offer the best value for Jackals fans.

Big Twig Homes is proud to offer structural insulated paneled homes (SIP). These homes have a great deal to offer in the form of energy efficiency, and they could be just the right choice for you. Many people enjoy SIP homes because they require up to 50% less energy for climate control, and they are stylish and beautiful. Would you like to learn more about structural insulated paneled homes? Here are the details that will help you decide if they offer the right type of home for you.
Two Options
Big Twig Homes actually offers two different options to take advantage of structural insulated panel. If you would like a brand new home built, then we will be glad to help you make that happen. We will work with you to design a home that is perfect for you and then we will build that energy efficient house with SIP panels. Alternatively, if you already have an existing home, we can install structural insulated panels right into your existing house, replacing the roof or walls of the structure. Installing these panels is straightforward, and you will begin to enjoy a difference right away!
The Panels
Just what are structural insulated panels? These panels are made from a rigid foam insulation that is use to create a continuous core. The actual panel will include outer structural boards that are laminated to the foam core. The panels are so energy efficient that they provide from 30% to 50% savings in energy bills in houses that they are installed.
Structural insulated panels can be used in several different ways throughout the homes. They can serve as insulation and paneling for the floors of the home, the walls of the home and even the structure of the roof. The more that the panels are used throughout a home, the more energy efficient it will be.
Choosing an SIP home can be a great way to enjoy a newly designed and built house that is energy efficient. Even if you already have a home, you can enjoy the benefits of SIP panels. All that you have to do is call Big Twig Homes today. We will be glad to discuss your home needs, whether you want a brand new structural insulated paneled home built or you want to make your current home more energy efficient. Call us today and we will be glad to help you get started!
What's in a S.I.P?
Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) are the energy efficient alternative to stick built homes. Without hesitation, your SIP Panel home will be one of the most comfortable, quiet and clean structures you will ever own. Unlike a stick-frame home, in which thermal performance is an afterthought, insulation is an integral part of a SIP Panel home. Air and moisture penetrations are greatly reduced because there are so few thermal breaks.
- SIP Panel buildings are 66% more energy efficient than standard frame construction
- 2-1/2 times stronger than standard building materials
- Cuts framing time by 2/3rds
- Stronger and straighter
- Better building systems

Multipitching is a great thing to do – climb lots of pitches in a row, get way high off the deck, push your mental and physical limits. Awesome, right? But one thing I know that is not awesome about multipitching is rope spaghetti – that mess of ropes and slip knots and having to step in, around, through little loops of rope just to be able to start leading again, only to get shortroped because the rope is hopelessly tangled down at the belay. But do not despair, you can fight this evil! I've compiled some basic tips garnered from Luke's and my experiences on long routes trying to fight the tangle.
Rope spaghetti in action:
The Basics
(1) It's almost always worth the extra time to organize your ropes. The time saved not having to undo a knotted rope is important.
(2) When you have 2 followers (especially if you're belaying both on a reverso), separate the ropes as you bring them up. Whoever has to lead next with both ropes will thank you for not getting short-roped the entire pitch.
(3) Take care to keep your leash (clove-hitched end of the rope and/or your daisy chain – basically your attachment point to the anchor) away from the ropes you pull up and the leashes of your follower(s). You don't need to put to much brainpower into belaying, so as you do, think about where to direct your follower(s) when he/she/they arrive. Usually you want your leash(es) to be on top of everything and the followers to be underneath everything.
The Giant Ledge Belay
This is the easiest situation – you have a nice, big ledge with plenty of room to flake your rope(s) onto the ledge. If you have 2 ropes, put them in separate piles. If you are leading the next pitch, remember to "pancake flip" the rope pile(s) – just pick up the whole thing and flip it upside down.
Alex Pelman and I enjoying a huge ledge low on North Early Winter Spire (North Cascades – Washington Pass):
This starts to get complicated. Sometimes you reach the anchor and you have a ledge, but a small one. Sure, you could just flake the rope onto the ledge on top of your feet, but what if you have 2 ropes? And then where are the follower(s) going to stand? This is where the stacked lap coils come in. Luke and I use this all the time and it works really well. It deserves it's own section, so keep reading to find out more!
Alex Pelman and I keeping the ropes organized on this small ledge on North Early Winter Spire:
As the area you have to stand on gets smaller, you have to be even more careful about where to direct your follower(s) so as not to get the rope(s) twisted.
The Dreaded Hanging Belay
The hanging belay can be pretty uncomfortable, but it does have the advantage of actually making lap coils a little easier because you can make longer coils (since for most hanging belays the coils will just dangle below you).
And now… (drum roll)…
Stacked Lap Coils
Unfortunately I don't have a picture of this technique (I guess the belay stance isn't exactly the most exciting image of the climb…) so I'll try to describe it the best I can. The basic idea is to use your leashes to make lap coils of the ropes as you belay them up (this is mostly for having 2 followers or just using double ropes). I usually connect my daisy chain at it's greatest length and then adjust the length of my clove-hitched rope to the anchor such that it's either about 1 foot longer or shorter than my daisy chain. Then I pull the ropes up one by one and coil each onto either my rope leash or my daisy chain. I continue to coil the ropes like this as I belay the followers up. That way you get each rope in a separate (hopefully neat!) coil so they will be relatively unknotted for whoever leads next. In order for this to work, you probably need to be using a Reverso or equivalent auto-locking device that allows you to have your hands available to keep your 2 coils neat as you go.
There is a little strategy you can use in your coils to make you life even easier. For example, if one of your followers is leading the next pitch, you should start your coil with longer loops and gradually shorten the length of the loops as you go, such that when you belay from the coil, the loops won't catch each other and make slip-knots. If you're leading the next pitch, you should try to make the coils about the same length (because you'll have to pull loops from the bottom of the coil and it gets messy if you try to go small –> large loops).
And as a bonus, here's some handy rope management for the descent (especially good in Red Rocks!)
The Rappel
Red Rocks can really show you exactly how much a rock can want to grab your rope and not let go. Although you mostly just have to be good at pulling the rope and positioning it while rappelling with good technique and a lot of luck to not get it stuck on the pull, there is something you can do to keep from having to swing all over the place to fix stuck rocks just to get to the next rap station. You can coil one (or both, if you have them) ropes and wrap a sling around each one (clipping the ends of the sling into the same carabiner. You don't want it to to be wrapped too tight or else it won't feed well while rappelling. Clip your rap device on the rope and you're ready to go. No more stuck ropes (or, at least, one less).
Luke demonstrates on the rap off Solar Slab (Red Rocks):
That's all for now, so good luck everyone with managing the rope spaghetti! I may write another blog or two about rope drag or fast leader change-overs if anyone's interested (or I get bored…)

Hi everyone,
Are you having a festive, fun, exciting holiday season? I am sure many of you are extra busy for preparing family get-togethers, year-end-meetings, gift-shoppings, and all other activities. Today I am writing a quick post of my recent crochet project. Nothing particularly special but just let you what I've been up to. :)
Somehow I've been hooked on crocheting with colorful, fun yarns nowadays. I LOVE strong, rich colors but when it comes to combining colors I am rather conservative. Personally I take a safe road and usually happy with it. In Korea there's a old saying. "You start getting into vibrant colors. It means you're getting older." Not sure where it came from but suddenly I am a bit worried myself. :) Well, I'd like to think it is just a good way of getting old. What is fun if we like exactly the same colors, same shades, same things in our whole life. Must be super boring. Even if that's a sign of getting old I am happy that I finally am able to appreciate wider spectrum of colors.
Here's my tiny corner next to my bed. Since we moved to this house it's been extra plain almost a year. A white cabinet, a white table. As simple as possible. Well, but from some point this year I started adoring vibrant colors by purchasing lots of colorful yarns. As a knitter we will never have enough yarns (Am I right or what?) but some of those yarns turned out to be not my cup of coffee. I was not really fond of how they felt against my skin. So I proceeded a project to use up some of them for something not wearables.
She is called a baby blanket (Rainbow Ripple Baby Blanket by Celeste Young) but I decided to give her a different purpose. Now you can see how I enjoy her. She is just perfect for my rather boring corner. It might be still little too wild for my taste but I am stunned by the way she sits on my table. She totally changes the ambiance of our bedroom. What you do think?
This is such an easy pattern that anyone who can do dc could finish in a few days. Play with colors so you can make this simple pattern look extra fun. you'll be totally surprised with what you create~ I am happy with the result so much that I might try some more soon. I am getting older but finding something new is extra exciting!
Happy Holidays and Keep Creating~

The Bengals got the ball back when LB Rey Maualuga recovered a Palmer fumble at the Oakland 46. The Bengals got to the 1-yard line on a 38-yard Green-Ellis run but were forced to settle for a Nugent field goal which gave them a 27-10 lead with 12:29 to play.
Francies fielded the ensuing kickoff and took a knee for a touchback and the Raiders started at the 20. The Raiders crossed midfield but the drive self-destructed and Lechler came on to punt. Tate returned the punt to the 16.
After a bizarre sequence which included several penalties and three player ejections, the Bengals drove deep into Raiders territory. Dalton hit TE Jermaine Gresham for a 7-yard TD pass. The extra point gave the Bengals a 34-10 lead with 3:39 left.
The Raiders next possession ended when a Palmer pass on 4th and 10 fell incomplete and Cincinnati took over on downs.
The Raiders fall to 3-8 on the season and return home to face the Cleveland Browns at O.co Coliseum next Sunday.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Investigators in Indianapolis say the victim of a hit-and-run crash earlier this week has died from his injuries and they're asking for help finding the vehicle involved.
Police say just after midnight Tuesday, in the 4000 block of North High School Road, 18-year-old Nicholas King was driving his scooter east on Westheaven Drive with a juvenile male passenger on the back seat.
Investigators say King tried to cross High School Road and drove into the path of a vehicle heading northbound on High School Road. The vehicle hit the scooter, ejecting King and his passenger.
Witnesses say the vehicle appeared to be driving at a high rate of speed. When police arrived they found King unresponsive on the ground.
King was transported to Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital in critical condition. Investigators say he died Thursday as a result of his injuries.
The juvenile passenger was not seriously hurt and was arrested on an unrelated incident to the crash.
Investigators are asking anyone that may have been in the area at the time of the crash or who may know where the vehicle is to call police. The vehicle involved is described as a gray or silver 1996 Ford Taurus or Mercury Sable, possibly a station wagon, with front end damage.

CANBERRA, Australia, May 14. THIS Saturday May 17 the National Training Centre in Canberra will play host to 87 of the best swimmers from across Australia as they take part in the first Grand Prix event for 2014.
The Grand Prix will see swimmers race in one of three teams made up of athletes selected onto the Commonwealth Games, Australia A and Junior Pan Pacific Championship teams as well as some additional athletes who performed strongly at the 2014 Australian Swimming Championships in Brisbane.
The three teams have been named after and will be captained by swimming legends and Olympic gold medallists Petria Thomas, Ashley Callus and Bill Kirby.
The races will be swum across two sessions with the first session commencing at 10:00am and the second at 4:30pm on Saturday May 17.
The second event on the program, the men's 100m freestyle could see the 2014 national champion Cameron McEvoy go head-to-head with world champion James Magnussen in an epic trials rematch.
The women's butterfly events will also be hotly contested and with points up for grabs in both the 100 and 200m butterfly, Alicia Coutts, Ellen Gandy and Madeline Groves will all be fighting for first place for their respective teams.
With the specific details of which swimmers will make up each team remaining secret until the night before the meet, Friday May 16, Swimming Australia National Head Coach Jacco Verhaeren said this would add an element of excitement to the event.
"It is important to get the swimmers excited about this competition, so I've added a surprise element to the meet – apart from the Head Coaches, no one will know until 12 hours before racing starts who their teammates and coaches will be and what events they will be swimming in," said Verhaeren.
"The swimmers will need to be ready to race in a number of events, some familiar and some unfamiliar while the head coaches [Simon Cusack, John Fowlie and Brant Best] will have to make tactical decisions to make the highest point score possible for their teams as the swimmers battle with and against each other."
Grand Prix 1 is the first of three competitions set up to help prepare athletes for the year ahead with the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow starting on July 24 and Hancock Prospecting Pan Pacific Swimming Championships on the Gold Coast from August 21.
The remaining two Grand Prix meets will be held in Queensland.
Spectator entry to the competition is free with the first session at 10:00am on Saturday May 17 at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra.

Well, regardless of the benefits for multiarch, library packages containing binaries that don't change names with different SONAMEs violate a Policy must at present. So either they're RC bugs or Policy is wrong about the severity. It's a theoretical problem in libc6 in particular since the chances of libc6 changing SONAMEs again is low and there would be a lot of other work to have to do to deal with that apart from the binaries in /usr/bin, but the situation for other libraries is much more concrete. I've already filed an RC bug about this in one other package that I ran into. I think such bugs are fair game regardless of whether or not we're trying to implement multiarch (with the normal caveats about mass bug filing). If the file does change with SONAME, that's a different matter, and that part depends more on our multiarch direction. -- Russ Allbery (firstname.lastname@example.com) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>

Team Foundation Server, Authentication, and Access
You can configure your deployment to help secure the connections between your users and your deployment of Visual Studio Team Foundation Server. Team Foundation Server (TFS) can support Basic authentication, Digest authentication, and certificates. Therefore, you can configure your deployment of TFS to use Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) with Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and either Basic or Digest authentication. If you adopt this strategy, your users can connect more securely to your deployment without having to use virtual private network (VPN) connections.
To support more secure external connections to your deployment of Team Foundation Server, you must configure Internet Information Services (IIS) to enable Basic authentication, Digest authentication, or both. You should also configure any external connections to require certificates.
Basic authentication is part of the HTTP 1.0 specification and uses Windows user accounts. During Basic authentication, the browser prompts the user for a user name and password and then transmits that information across HTTP using Base64 encoding. By default, Basic authentication requires the Windows user account to have local logon rights at the web server. You can use Basic authentication in both workgroup and domain deployments. Most web servers, proxy servers, and web browsers support Basic authentication, but it is not secure. Because data that is encoded with Base64 is easy to decode, Basic authentication is essentially sending the password as plaintext. By monitoring communications on the network, a malicious user can easily intercept and decipher these passwords by using publicly available tools. To improve security, you should consider using HTTPS with SSL.
Digest authentication is a challenge/response mechanism that sends a digest (also referred to as a hash) instead of a password over the network. During Digest authentication, IIS sends a challenge to the client to create a digest and then send that digest to the server. As a response to the challenge, the client sends a digest that is based on the user's password together with data that is known both to the client and to the server. The server uses the same process as the client to create its own digest, with the user information obtained from Active Directory. IIS authenticates the client only if the digest that the server creates matches the digest that the client creates. You can use Digest authentication only in Active Directory deployments. By itself, Digest authentication is only a small improvement over Basic authentication. A malicious user could record communication between the client and the server and then use that information to replay the transaction. Digest authentication also has dependencies on the HTTP 1.1 protocol, which not all web browsers support. Moreover, attempts to access Team Foundation Server will fail if you do not configure Digest authentication correctly. Do not choose Digest authentication unless your deployment meets all the requirements for that mode. For more information, see the following page on the Microsoft website (Configure Digest Authentication (IIS 7.0)).
By default, Team Foundation Server uses the Windows Challenge/Response (NTLM) authentication protocol. NTLM credentials are based on data obtained during the interactive logon process, and include a one-way hash of the password.
Team Foundation Server also supports Microsoft Negotiate as an authentication protocol. In the Negotiate protocol, Kerberos is selected unless it cannot be used by one of the systems involved in the authentication process. For those systems not configured for Kerberos, NTLM is used. Negotiate is the more secure option for most deployments, but can require additional configuration tasks.
In addition to the domain and workgroup requirements that were mentioned earlier in this topic, both Basic and Digest authentication are insufficient by themselves to provide network security for external clients. Therefore, you should not configure Team Foundation Server to support external clients unless you also configure these connections to require HTTPS with SSL.

Like the way the warm aroma of burning oak can spark memories reminiscent of cold winter months, certain songs bookmark the beauty and mundane nature of our everyday lives. Be it your first cross country road trip with friends, or the certainty of heartache that inevitably finds its way into our existence, songs have a way of getting us through the sweetest, and hardest times, in our lives. This proves true more often than not years later, when a flash flood of memories is stirred by the grace of shuffle on your seemingly sentient iPod.
Matt Pond has written songs that would be perfect selections for your life's soundtrack since the late 90′s. With the completion of their latest EP Spring Fools, a fall tour is in full swing, and St. Louis has been fortunate enough to earn a stop. This Monday October 24, 2011, Matt Pond PA will be at Cicero's in the Loop. We had a chance to speak with him about music, movies, this tour, and the joys of getting lost. Continue Reading »

We have a "No Electronics" rule in our house for the summer. The kids are only allowed screen time at night and on rainy days, so they need to find creative ways to entertain themselves on these long, hot summer days. Netflix has come to my kids rescue by sending a huge Dragons: Race To The Edge package to keep them occupied! Inside the kit was some fun photo props, a cozy blanket, snacks, sidewalk chalk, a lunchbox and an inflatable sword.
Dragons: Race To The Edge is a spinoff from the DreamWorks How To Train Your Dragon films.
This summer, Hiccup and Toothless, from the critically acclaimed How to Train Your Dragon films are embarking on unparalleled adventures in the all-new Netflix original series Dragons: Race to the Edge – and inviting you along for the dragon ride.
Soaring beyond their home on the island of Berk in search of new dragons, Dragons: Race to the Edge introduces some of the most exciting dragons yet, each with its own amazing abilities — shock waves, cannon balls and fire blasts, just to name a few.
With the magical Dragon Eye, an artifact Hiccup finds aboard an abandoned ship, Hiccup learns there is more outside the confines of Berk, and that a little curiosity and determination can make every day an exciting journey. In Hiccup's own words, "this changes everything."
Here is a clip of the new Dragons: Race To The Edge now available for your viewing pleasure on Netflix:

5. Abolish reunificatiom law!
Abolish that and introduce Lieberman's oath of loyalty to all current Israeli citizens. If you don't swear loyalty to Israel as a Jewish, democratic nation get stripped of your citizen regardless of whether you're Arab or Jewish and be deported. It's basic logics and should be supported by anyone from left to right if you support Israel's right to existence.

Watching Israel kick terrorist ass and destroy the terrorist infrastructure in Gaza. Watching Iron Dome do its thing with amazing success.

Laughing at the pathetic efforts of the terrorists to garner sympathy from the rest of the world only to discover that most countries acknowledged Israel's right to defend its citizens. How did you spend the past week? Watching the events as they unfolded in Gaza and cursing Israel and the Jewish people for the destruction of the terror infrastructure in Gaza? Too bad for you.

When will Israel learn how to deal with these animals to ensure others never repeat the same behavior? Its simple. You find out what street he and his collaborators live on. You send in the IDF overnight. The rest of the neighborhood wakes up to find the street or streets turned into parking lots. I can assure you then, people will think it over a few times before committing to a terror organization.

No Sarah, I believe Split (#7) was probably referring to the numerous 'price tag' attacks that happen in Israel on an almost weekly basis – and the fact that rarely are the perpetrators ever caught (and please don't say that the Palestinians do it too – stick the Split's (#7) point). Indeed, what could have been said is that because of the increasing number – and level of violence - of these 'price-tag' attacks, is that on 9/10/12, Internal Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch established a special police unit to combat this phenomenon. It seems that the point Split (#7) was making was that the bombing suspect was apprehended within hours (which is good) while the 'price-tag' perpetrators are rarely caught (even weeks later – which is not good in a just and law abiding society).

26. Give them something to lose.
Michael ,
When a person has something to lose, then maybe ( hopefully ) they will modify their behaviour. If he came on family re-uniification. Then family is important. After his trial, and if found guilty, then deport the entire family. Maybe the next 'prospect' might re-consider before becoming a terrorist. Who cares if the leftie loonies criticize Israel, they will do so, whatever Israel does or doesn't do.

An exasperating season for Jermain Defoe ended with further frustration when the Tottenham Hotspur striker was forced to withdraw from Fabio Capello's England squad for the Euro 2012 qualifier against Switzerland after suffering a fractured wrist.
The Spurs doctors informed the national set-up that the striker had sustained a "small fracture" on Wednesday which would rule him out of the game at Wembley on 4 June, with Capello apparently reluctant to call up a replacement given the lack of options available to him. Wayne Rooney is suspended for the game against the Swiss, while Andy Carroll and Carlton Cole have been omitted from the squad as they ended the season suffering from knee and neck injuries respectively.
That has left the England manager with only Darren Bent, who has scored in each of his last three international appearances and increasingly appears a first-choice, Peter Crouch and Bobby Zamora as his front options. Yet Capello, who has selected 14 forwards over his tenure as national coach, intends to employ a 4-3-3 formation, most likely with Bent flanked by his Aston Villa team-mate Ashley Young and Arsenal's Theo Walcott, against Switzerland and is confident he will not need to add another forward from the Under-21s.
Defoe's absence caps a desperate season which began with a hat-trick for England in the qualifying win over Bulgaria but ended with only 16 Premier League starts, four goals and frustration at the relative bit-part role to which he has been reduced at White Hart Lane. The 28-year-old played in the 2-1 win over Birmingham City on Sunday but complained of discomfort in a wrist, with scans having since revealed a small break and associated ligament damage. The forward has 15 goals in his 46 games, though his campaign for club and country has rather petered out.
He joins David Stockdale in withdrawing, with the Fulham goalkeeper excused as he is due to be married on the eve of the match. Robert Green, initially overlooked, stepped back into the party as a replacement and is expected to be on the bench as Joe Hart's understudy and ahead of West Bromwich Albion's Scott Carson.

ACC Releases Old School Video Game Promo to Hype Jameis Winston vs. Tajh BoydOctober 9, 2013
Two Heisman front-runner quarterbacks square off on October 19 as Clemson will take on Florida State, pitting senior Tajh Boyd and redshirt freshman Jameis Winston against each other.
To hype the matchup, the ACC has released this old school arcade-style video with "Famous Jameis" against "Clemson Tajh." It's safe to say whoever can lead their team to victory will be towards the top of the Heisman candidate list.
Hat tip to College Spun for the find.

The Economy of the Soviet Union from 1922 to 1953
In 1917, Vladimir Lenin and the Russian Communist Party took over the control of Russia. After five years the Union of Soviet Socialistic Republic (USSR) was established and it might be said that it meant change, not merely for several countries in Eurasia and in Eastern Europe but it had a global impact. The Union of Soviet Socialistic Republic (USSR) was the world's largest country at the time it existed (1922-1991). Lenin became the leader of Soviet Union; he governed it by communist ideas which were based on Marxism-Leninism. In this essay it will be discussed how the communism as a socioeconomic system shaped economy at countries which belonged to Soviet Union during 1922-1953.
Another important feature of communism regime was propoganda. Both dictators Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin promoted personality cult, all the artistry works created in USSR had to glorify them. "Public discussion of key issues was tolerated less and less"(Bliss Eaton, Katherine p.
