McGuinness stands over call for health duo to resign
Taoiseach: PAC chief playing politics
A war of words has erupted between Taoiseach Enda Kenny and the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) over claims that two of the country's most senior health officials should resign.
Mr Kenny said PAC chairman John McGuinness had "over-politicised" his position as head of the spending watchdog by calling for the resignations of HSE chief Tony O'Brien and the Secretary General of the Department of Health, Ambrose McLoughlin.
Mr McGuinness's unprecedented call, made at a highly charged PAC meeting on Thursday, has raised eyebrows within government circles.
And the remarks have now prompted a terse response from Mr Kenny, who accused the Fianna Fail TD of overstepping the mark.
"I do think that comments made by the chairman of the PAC have over-politicised the issue. There are other opportunities for people to determine and to set out their case as to the effectiveness of their duties," the Taoiseach said at a British Irish Council meeting in Guernsey.
"But the chairmanship of the PAC was always independent and I regret that it's been over-politicised by these comments," he added.
The call for the resignations of Mr McLoughlin and Mr O'Brien came amid growing pressure on Health Minister James Reilly, who faces being sacked in the upcoming cabinet reshuffle.
The pair are both close allies of Dr Reilly and are understood to have been left stunned by Mr McGuinness's call for them to quit.
The Carlow/Kilkenny TD made the remarks after it emerged that the HSE is heading towards a €500m cash shortfall by the end of the year.
Speaking to the Irish Independent last night, Mr McGuinness strongly rejected Mr Kenny's claim that he has "over-politicised" the committee.
"Had the Taoiseach been in the country, listening to PAC, he'd hear me state that this is not political. It's the business of the PAC to question accounting officers that are well paid to manage the taxpayers' money. In this instance, it's clear they got the budget wrong for the last number of years, and they've continued to get it wrong. They've now indicated that they could be €500m over budget by end of year, that's not acceptable," he said.
"I'd say to the Taoiseach, that's not politics, that's accountability for taxpayers and that's the job of the PAC. Maybe the Taoiseach should have a look at the transcript and then come back to me."
Mr McGuinness said he is standing by his call for both health officials to step down.
Fine Gael TD Eoghan Murphy strongly criticised Mr McGuinness over the remarks.
"It's not on. The PAC is meant to take a dispassionate view of these things and establish the facts of the matter."
Labour TD Robert Dowds added: "Mr McGuinness should look into the heart of his own party – the one he wants to lead. Fianna Fail was the party that set up the HSE."
Fine Gael TD Paul Connaughton told the Irish Independent that the PAC is "not in the job of hiring and firing".
"The chairman's comments don't represent my views or that of many of the committee," he said.

James Middleton, the younger brother of freshly-minted royal Kate Middleton, may become persona non grata at his in-law's dinner parties after photos of him naked and in some rather compromising positions showed up online.
The photos, which you can check out via this Daily News article, show James Middleton in his underwear grabbing his junk, lounging in a chair totally naked with his bits covered by his hand, mimicking sex acts while wearing a French maid's costume and lots of mooning. Lots and lots of mooning.
The photos appear to date back to at least 2008. James Middleton, now a cake designer and part time business development manager after dropping out of college, had a special role at the royal wedding where he read a passage from the Bible after Wills and Kate recited their vows.
Of course, we're far more interested in his fabulous cheekbones than his skinny bum.

When it comes to pop music, popularity is all important. One way we measure that is by the number of comments a popular music review generates from readers like you. In the past, we had readers commenting on concerts at the You Review blog, but in August, we ported that blog and put music reviews (and other reviews) in this blog — the Arts Talk blog — to consolidate our arts coverage in one location. So some of the links below will take you to the You Review blog, while others will send you to posts within the Arts Talk blog. And now, the top 10 Capital Region concerts of 2010 based on the number of reader comments
10. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at SPAC, Aug. 27, 2010
9. The Allman Brothers Band @ The Palace Theatre
7. Diana Ross at the Palace Theatre, 9/15/10
4. American Idol Live @ Times Union Center, 7/17/10
2. Billy Joel and Elton John @ Times Union Center, 3/11/10


text: Sprint's AIRAVE signal booster isn't officially on sale nationwide just yet (August 17th, for those curious), but for those anxious to pull the trigger (or merely mulling the decision), we've got a few hands-on shots to whet your appetite. The Samsung-made CDMA femtocell arrived at our doorstep today, and the packaging is about what you'd expect from Sprint: yellow, a hint of white, and more yellow. The device itself isn't too unwieldy, and it's certainly on the light side. There's definitely a port for hooking up a GPS antenna to keep users from taking this abroad and dialing up internationally (understandable, but what a bummer!), and everything else is pretty much par for the course. We'll be taking this thing for a spin here in a Sprint dead zone to see if it really lives up to the hype, but until then, feel free to peruse the gallery below.

Business News Rapper NAS predicted to earn $40 Million in this tech acquisition Published 2 days ago on March 21, 2018 By Jae Alan Legendary rapper Nasir "Nas" Jones may earn more than $40 million thanks to his early investment in Ring once the smart doorbell security company is acquired by Amazon for $1.1 billion. Amazon told Black Enterprise in an email late Monday night that "the deal is not yet closed." The Queens-bred hip-hop star was one of Ring's first investors through Queensbridge Venture Partners, the equity firm he co-founded in 2014. A Ring spokesperson told Black Enterprise that the company is looking forward to breaking new ground with Amazon. "Ring is committed to our mission to reduce crime in neighborhoods by providing effective yet affordable home security tools to our neighbors that make a positive impact on our homes, our communities, and the world," reads the email. "We'll be able to achieve even more by partnering with an inventive, customer-centric company like Amazon. We look forward to being a part of the Amazon team as we work toward our vision for safer neighborhoods." Back in 2013, Ring founder and CEO Jamie Siminoff appeared on ABC's Shark Tank but walked away without a deal. He says he also struggled to find investors and keep his business afloat. "I can't count the number of people who didn't invest in this, who said 'no,' the number of people who said it was going to fail," Siminoff told CNBC in November.

I have been collecting anime cels for years. It all began with an innocently purchased cel of Keiich from OMG. Who knew what a compulsive hobby it would become! I soon needed to add Ranma, in both forms, to my collection. Next it was Kero from Card Captor Sakura and even a handful of Pokemon! Soon, my cel collecting hobby had snowballed out of control!
Over the years, I have noticed some changes in the cel collecting hobby. Cels from shows that were once available in abundance soon dried up. While wandering the dealer hall at Anime Expo, I stopped by the Anime Link booth to chat with Rick Alonso about the state of cel collecting. Rick easily has some of the best cels available on the collector market, and he's always eager to discuss them. Rick's been helping collectors find their dream cels since 1990. He kindly agreed to be help share his knowledge for this article.
How did you first get interested in cel collecting?
– Through my classmates in Japan, who became art directors, character designers, mecha designers, producers & directors….all in the anime & manga industry. I was a graphic illustrator in the early mid '80's and traveled to Japan for work and met up with all my buddies. When I went touring the various anime studios, I met with staff who collected cels, was shown their various collections…..and was immediately hooked. My life has been in financial ruins ever since!
I know that feeling! When did you decide to start Anime Link and how did you go about it?
-After I met up with collectors, traders etc….. and talked with them about possible business ventures, I decided to give it a shot in the US, to see if they could sell. So I got a couple of investors for the seed money, got a pretty sound business plan together and got started.
How do you get your cels?
– Many various sources: collectors, traders, producers, art directors, studio open houses & anime stores….. all in Japan. I also was able to hook up with Streamline Pictures in Los Angeles, who owned all the cels from Akira & Robot Carnival, where I was able to acquire a sizable chunk of cels for our inventory.
What trends have you seen over the years you've been in business?
– The most pronounced trend or change was the 'awakening' & convergence of the female fan as a huge customer base, almost 10 years or so ago. Where we as cel dealers could not do anything with 'male' character cels (unless they were BIG stars like Astro Boy, Hikaru from Macross etc), all of a sudden 'male' cels from shows like Ruroni Kenshin, Cowboy Bebop, etc were being bought up like hotcakes by women. Then there was or is the Yaoi 'Boy's Love' phenomenon that was also started by the voracious female fans.
With the demise of hand drawn animated cels and the CG domination in the current world animation market, there is a new collector group of genga & douga sketches (pencil sketches) of the CG created cels. But like the anime cels, the days of genga & douga sketches are numbered. On my last tour of the studios, they were all telling & showing me the newest technology of creating anime without the use of actual paper, anime can now be created totally from start to finish via CG. Oh, also there was/is the trend or popularity of limited edition cels that were 'created' both by anime studios (AIC & Studio Pierrot for example) and secondary licensed parties.
What are the most popular series for cel collectors?
– Well, that's a pretty broad question. If I was to break it down & separate cels & pencil sketches as far as collecting is concerned, here's some examples:
1) Cels: Cowboy Bebop, Ruroni Kenshin, Kare Kano, Macross, Macross Plus, Trigun, Battle Angel Alita, Last Unicorn, Ghost in the Shell, Gundam Wing, Card Captor Sakura, Escaflowne, Ninja Scroll
2) Pencil Sketches: Naruto, Bleach, Twelve Kingdoms, Deathnote, FLCL, Blood Plus, Trinity Blood, Gundam Seed, Full Metal Alchemist. Saiyuki
…..and there's many more in each category as well, just can't list them all!
What studio was the first to use digital technology for animation?
– The first all CG anime, Blue Submarine 6, was created by Studio GONZO. Many studios held back from getting into full CG but as time went along and the software got better & better …. and the studios, due to the bad economy, rising labor costs & more, slowly started to make the move Yinto CG, the rest is history now.
How has this changed your business?
– Well, the obvious change was the realization that there will be no more cels created by the studios and that eventually this cottage industry & business may come to an end….but the trading & sales between collectors will surely continue.
As a cel collector, I'm alarmed to hear that there will be an end to new cels one day. Are any studios still using traditional cel animation?
– No, none of the major studios are at this time. The last series that was made in cel animation was the first season of Inuyasha. The last Ghibli film to be done with cel animation was Princess Mononoke.
What are the biggest challenges facing your business today?
– One word: Diversification! Obviously with the demise of cels in the anime studios and now even the pencil sketches leaving us soon….one must change, evolve & diversify in order to survive in any business. One good thing for us is that we have a myriad of collectors & traders that we deal with, that still have a very nice inventory of cels that we have access to. But one cannot count on that as the only source so we have started to acquire exclusive merchandise licenses from our friends in the business. We have released our first set of exclusive Yasuhiro Niightow Trigun & Gungrave posters last year and we just released 4 more new styles at the recent Anime Expo. We have plans now for more posters from other artists, original T-shirts & other apparel designed by various anime & manga character designers, exclusive plushies & much more. I still plan to focus on getting more of the best quality anime cels out there but I also have to plan for the next phase in our business plan.
What advice do you have for people just starting to dip their toes into the cel collecting waters?
– Well to be frank, it's a bit tough…..the biggest reason: lack of selection. It used to be, when cel collecting was in its infancy in Japan….. cels would rotate back into the traders' & collectors' hands and there were more cels to be had than today. With the coming of the internet, people worldwide have been buying up cels 365/24/7. There just aren't that many good cels, or cels period, out there, like there were 10, 15, 20 years ago. And most importantly, it's the sheer size of the current collectors and how quickly it all came about. There just aren't enough cels, good cels that is, out there in the market nowadays. But like everything else in life, everything comes back full circle so maybe more & more cels will make it back into the market flow one day!
What is your favorite anime?
– Actually I don't have one favorite anime per say! 🙂 But if I have to whittle it down to my favorite series, it has to be anything done by Mr. Kawajiri of MadHouse Studios: Ninja Scroll movie, Wicked City, Demon City Shinjuku, Midnight Eye Goku, Dagger of Kamui, Cyber City Oedo 808 & Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust. I also like many various comedy, action & fantasy & SciFi anime, from Golden Boy, Giant Robo, Battle Angel, Riding Bean etc…… actually too many to list here!
What is your favorite cel? I know you have to have one!
– Well, maybe one from EACH category but not just one cel I'm afraid!…. although I do prize my Kimba, Astro Boy & some Ghibli cels very highly!
If you're headed to the San Diego Comicon, stop by Booth #407 in Hall A and say hi to Rick! Check out his cels; he's got some great ones! Also, you can visit his website, Anime Link, or for information on their official Vampire Hunter D, Bloodlust Movie Cels, please click here for the Website and Gallery.
I want to thank Rick again for taking the time to answer my questions. Cel collecting is a fun, exhilarating hobby. It's so exciting to actually own a part of your favorite anime! Just be warned! Anime cels are like potato chips – you can't stop with just one!

Not many artists have had the privillege of walking the path of Menacide, while still maintaining strong roots in the concrete of the Underground. He's sat in 54 Sound Studios in Detroit with Eminem (while recording with Proof of D12), has been featured in the Associated Press more than once, and prides a "nose to the grindstone" hustle in what is sure to be a very monumental indie career.Read More...
Having released a massive catalog of independent underground material, Mena has traveled to New York to record in a facility used by DMX during "The Great Depression" sessions, and has banged out songs with Detroit's King Gordy & Prozak, while also establishing himself as a solid one-half of the mixtape duo known as the "Heavy Hittaz" alongside McNastee. Coined the "King Of West Michigan", Menacide is also actively involved in the ever-spreading underground phenominon known as the "Wicked Underground".
Beginning as a 15 year old youth selling early cassette tape releases by hand, he built his way to a strong underground following, and an ever-reinventing polished sound. He's hosted local rap battles, performed at countless venues, and paid enough dues to cover the work ethic of a dozen indie artists combined throughout the course of his career. He is currently in the studio smashing out production on his first ever Double CD, tentatively titled "Street Symphony". Read more on Last.fm.

Discussion in 'Members Mixes' started by DYL, Jun 11, 2013.
Welcome to the forum DYL! Always nice to see another top producer on the forum.
Loved the 2nd & 3rd tunes in your mix. Those 2 very minimal & effective rollers, like Dan Habarnam's The Boogaloo & Felix K's Flower Of Destruction 6. The subtle techno bass pads in the 4th tune were wicked & worked well with the steppy beat in that tune. The 5th tunes sounds familiar Sounds like something Skeptical / Dub Phizix / Detail or similar. The tune coming in / playing at 12:50 is pure quality. Wicked precussion & beat in that. Plus the thumping tune coming in at aroun 17 mins is rather special. The tune at 20:28 with the Skeptical - Frozen vibe on the second drop is again a treat on the ears Enjoyed hearing Ayanuska or whatever that Indigo tune is called again. The atmospheric feel of the tune around 34 mins was bliss and again with the tune around 41:50. The latter something Sicx would enjoy on the forum and made for a choice end tune.
A quality mix all together man! Very beat orientated (which I love) with a mixture of minimal bits, some slightly more rolling that others.
Some moody, growling, glitchy and autonomic style bits in there too, which is always nice + a wicked journey.
Could do with a tracklist if you could sort one out, but would imagine that a fair handful of them are exclusives

Questions of the day: On the Olympics, gold and priorities
There were mini-waves kicked up yesterday when it was reported Kobe Bryant said that, on the Importance-O-Meter, an Olympic gold medal trumps an NBA title. Why?
"You're playing for your country. You're not playing for a region, a state … you're playing for the United States of America and that has more importance."
Seems fair enough, but on the other hand, as a Laker sfan, does this bother you? Listening to the sports talk on the radio last night, I heard AM 570's Joe McDonnell railing not on Kobe personally, but on this idea that a gold is a bigger deal. I was given the impression he believes players have a larger obligation to the fans of the city for which they play, to the organization that pays them, and so on, and that an NBA title is a bigger deal. I didn't listen long, nor particularly closely, but there were probably a few callers who agreed. Of course, in some ways, your thoughts on this issue are linked to the Olympic question generally. So with that, I ask today's Questions of the Day:
1) Do you care that Kobe said an Olympic gold was more important than an NBA title?
2) Generally speaking, do you like to see the stars of your favorite teams play in the Olympics? Especially a player like Kobe, who is risking injury, exhaustion (yes, even Kobe gets tired), and putting off surgery on his finger? Don't forget, Pau Gasol is playing too.
For me?
1) No, it doesn't bother me. As important as an NBA title is to him, the city, the organization, fans, and beyond, it doesn't have to be literally the top priority of his life. Family, friends, and yes, even other basketball competitions can come first. I do wonder what Kobe would say if he didn't already have three rings, and if his thoughts would be any different. But even if they weren't, it doesn't matter. He has, by force of his play, shown how much he wants an NBA title. Nobody is more competitive. That should be enough.
Had he said that an MVP was more important, we could talk. But chastising him for believing that winning for one's country is larger than winning for one's city and employer? I don't see it.
2) If I'm Phil Jackson, Jerry Buss, Mitch Kupchak, and the rest of the Lakers organization, I'd just as soon see Kobe and Pau rest. I'm sure most GMs and coaches feel the same about their players who are part of Team USA. The NBA is a brutal place, especially for players who go deep into the postseason. There is little time to rest and recoup before things crank right back up for training camp. Players need downtime, and can suffer if they don't get it. The Lakers are in a position now where they could play an extra 20+ games a year for the foreseeable future. That takes a toll.
That said, I also understand- and totally agree with- the idea that as a team, you can't stop a player from playing in something as special as the Olympics. I know some of the mystique of the games has gone as more pros in every sport get involved, more money is pumped into and sucked out of, and more politics play into the Games, but they're still the Olympics, and the opportunity to represent one's country in international competition is huge. It's a different kind of pride, one that Kobe alludes to and that clearly Gasol feels as well.
Is it a nerve wracking time for fans and teams alike? In a lot of ways, absolutely. But big picture, you can never fault a player for wanting to play for his country.

Cop injured in police van crash
A police officer is in hospital, after a car smashed into a police van at St Albans, in Melbourne's west, last night.
Police say two constables were driving with lights and sirens on, when another car ran a red light at the intersection of Main Road and East Esplanade and crashed into them.
One officer suffered minor injuries.
The 74-year-old driver of the other car returned a positive blood alcohol reading.
Sergeant Mick Downes says the officers were on their way to another incident at the time of the crash.
"[The] Keilor Downs van was responding to another accident. A car had gone into the fence of a school," he said.
"They were responding to that. Coming through the intersection, they looked both ways, appeared to have the green light and went straight ahead and a car came from another direction and hit them."
Sergeant Downes says drivers have to be aware of what they are doing.
"When they see a car, whether it be a police vehicle a fire vehicle or an ambulance, when they got their lights and sirens, just to make room for them and drive safely," he said.

Fastbreak Q
Hey guys :D
On fast break situations do you guys survey the floor first before taking it straight to the hole or do guys just have an aggressive mentality to get to the hole and just whatever happens?
I really want to get better in fast break situations, and I am comfortable in my decision making in half court sets but in fast break situations, everything's a blur and most of the time I just settle for a jump shot regardless if there's an opportunity to get closer to the basket.
I figured that maybe it is because I am managing multiple things during fast break including protecting the ball and trying to know where everyone is as well as also looking for my shot.
Besides my question at the top, any tips?
Thanks guys.
Re: Fastbreak Q
I usually look at my defender first then look at my other options just in case.
Re: Fastbreak Q
My fast break mentality is to attack until a defender decides to step up and stop me. I mean, I try to make my decision by the time I reach the free throw line so my passing lanes, if I opt to pass, remain open and unclogged (though it doesn't always work that way) but I always have an attack-first mentality.
I look at it like this, if I'm a hypothetical defender getting back on defense during a fast break, what am I thinking? As coaches always say, I should be thinking about stopping the ball. But then, since it's a fast break, I know stopping the ball might just mean I leave a wingman wide open. So maybe I try to anticipate a passing lane, or maybe I sort of stop ball but not really, just in case I'll need to drop back and address a player running the wing.
My point is, defenders often have indecision on a fast break and frequently, there are times where they want to play a modified version of monkey in the middle. And anytime I sense something of that nature - the defender showcasing indecision, just sort of hopping about, not directly stopping ball, or establishing a weak position up around the free throw line or above - I'm thinking attack.
Of course, the higher you get in basketball skill, the more variables that come into play. For instance, high college level players and above will all have wiser fast break tactics. But if you're talking about playing amongst high schoolers, or college rec guys, or just random street folk, you'd be surprised how many of those defenders may look like they're in position to stop you on a fast break, but really aren't.
Growing up, my biggest fast break issue was thinking that it was absolutely necessary that I get to the middle of the floor (correct) and undoubtedly always pass to a wing filling (not always correct). Always passing (and clearly always looking to pass) removed myself as any sort of threat and made my fast breaks easily defendable. It wasn't until I watched one of my most skilled teammates (a very unselfish one at that) often continue right down the lane with the ball if noone made a super-serious commitment to stop him. It simplified things for me.
Basically, dribble the ball toward the hoop with the idea of scoring. If someone decides to do something about it, explore other options. Ha, so simple, right? I feel like this guy's coach: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEHZJNQ5Y4A
Re: Fastbreak Q
I agree with Rake2204. You have to be aggressive and have that attack mindset when running the fast break situation. Since this is a streetball thread, I am guessing this is relate to streetball. If this is related to school team fast break, a lot depends on the coach and the system they are running. Most times the coach will let you attack and be aggressive on the break. Sometimes a coach will have you pass ahead for the open man or wait for your teammates to get near you. So a lote depends on the situation. But if this is related to streetball, just attack the rim. Be aggressive out there.
Re: Fastbreak Q
Jelly Bean is right about context. If you're in a structured team setting, then things change. For example, we used to have a policy in college where "if a guy was open and ahead of you, give it to him", a policy I generally don't like, but in practice if you're a little more thoughtfull with it, like not hitting you're power forward in the middle of the court, and if you have a team of guys with the same mentallity, it works all right.
The first thing I'd say is never take a jumper on the break, unless it's a kick out three. I hate the pull up on the break. It always felt like something I could get at another time if I needed to.
Going until you're stopped is also a good advice. Force someone to stop you. Don't volunteer to give up your dribble.
Lane runners often get chewed out for space, but as a PG, I feel like I have to take some responsibility. If it's two on one, move to an angle that you're comfortable with finishing, and head toward the rim until you're stopped.
If I'm not stopped until so late that I get under the hoop, I still don't give up the bounce. I'm not even really crazy about the kick out three, I like to roll dribble out, and while I'm pulling the defense away, look for trailing bigs. It's a great chance to put the ball over the defense at the rim.
Re: Fastbreak Q
Answer is obvious...give and go alley oop dunk.
Re: Fastbreak Q
on a fastbreak with a umbers advantage make a guy commit to someone, ideally yourself, by making an aggressive drive to the basket. if he steps up and stops the ball before the free throw line then pass it off, should be an easy basket. if not just go straight to the rim, being careful not to pick up a charge though
Re: Fastbreak Q
thanks boys
Re: Fastbreak Q
My go-to move on the break is the pull-up jumper. Just survey the court while you dribble into your pull-up so you're not predictable.
Re: Fastbreak Q
I'll just continue to drive into the basket. If I have 2 defenders in front of me I'll just make a wrap around layup.

- Universal Studios commissioned a new musical score from composer Philip Glass. It premiered at The Brooklyn Academy of Music on 26 October 1999.
- The role of Dracula was originally meant for Lon Chaney.
- A Spanish-language version, Dracula (1931/II), was filmed at night on the same set at the same time, with Spanish-speaking actors.
- The original plan was to make a big-budget adaptation of "Dracula" that would adhere strictly to Bram Stoker's novel. However, with the Great Depression, Universal didn't have the money to make such a sprawling film. Instead, they opted to adapt the much less expensive Hamilton Deane stage play.
- When this film was re-released after the Production Code, several deletions were ordered made to the soundtrack. The deletions include Renfield's scream as he is being killed and Dracula's moan as the stake is driven through his heart. These deletions have been restored.

Confused By Food Labels? Read the Fine Print!
Twenty years ago, no one scrutinized cereal boxes to compare calories in competing brands. They couldn't–prior to the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act (NLEA) of 1990, that info wasn't on most packages. And forget about finding calories on restaurant menus.
The 125 best packaged foods for a healthy diet.
Yet the country's obesity rate back then was about 14 percent lower than it is now. Labels, it seems, may be doing more harm than good. That's why the Institute of Medicine (IOM), a nonprofit health advisory, is taking a fresh look at labeling policies in an effort to make the facts clearer and harder to ignore. Here's how not to be duped.
Food Fakers
One of the biggest problems with labels is that while the NLEA specified what nutrition data should be shown, and even the typeface and size it had to be printed in, the legislation didn't dictate where it should be placed. Consequently, most manufacturers will bury a product's fact panel and ingredients list on the back or side of the package, while filling the front with such eye-catching words as sensible, smart, and healthy–claims that sound good and sell well but are often misleading.
Healthy eating 101: Nutrition advice from the world's experts.
"Many manufacturers and supermarkets seem to be creating their own proprietary ways of highlighting attributes on the front of packages," says Nancy Childs, Ph.D., a professor of food marketing at St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia. "With this proliferation of front-of-the-box babble, it's very hard for a consumer to make sense of what's in a particular food."
Indeed, studies at Cornell University's Food and Brand Lab show that consumers tend to lowball the number of calories in foods whose packaging features words such as low-fat. This miscalculation leads them to eat more of the product, even when the marketing buzzwords have nothing to do with calories. Cookies, for instance, were thought to have 40 percent fewer calories just because the word organic was printed somewhere on the label.
The assertions themselves may be true, but that doesn't make them any less confusing.
"You'll see no cholesterol labels on products that never had cholesterol in them," says Marisa Moore, R.D., a national spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. "The food might be filled with sugar or saturated fat, but a person who has high cholesterol might think, 'Oh, I can eat this,' without understanding that saturated fat increases cholesterol levels."
Reform Package
Earlier this year, manufacturers of packaged foods took a step in the right direction by rolling out a voluntary front-of-package labeling system called Nutrition Keys. But critics say the system, like the Smart Choices program that came before it (which has been discontinued), is no less confusing to consumers.
6 Tricks to help cut your grocery bill.
"There's still a need for awareness and education about how to interpret the information to answer important questions such as how many calories is enough? Or too many?" says Moore.
A preliminary report by the IOM addresses some of these issues and recommends that front-of-package nutrition information be standardized and emphasize the items of most concern: calories, salt, saturated fat, and trans fats.
The IOM is also rallying for more reasonable serving sizes. For example, a can of nuts may boast "150 calories!" on the front, but flipping it over reveals there are actually 150 calories per serving, and that the small package holds seven servings.
Nutrition information is likely to start showing up in more places too. As part of the new health reform bill, restaurant chains with 20 or more locations nationwide are required to post calorie information for all the food they sell, which is important legislation given how often American families eat out.
Of course, knowledge may be power, but it isn't willpower. There will always be people who see that a food contains an astronomical amount of calories, shrug, and wolf it down anyway. Nothing you put on a label will change that. But experts are optimistic that the proposed mandates will make manufacturers and restaurants sit up and take notice.
"It's clear that being required to display nutrition information prominently will sensitize food companies and restaurants to the calorie content of their foods," says Michael Jacobson, Ph.D., cofounder of the Center for Science in the Public Interest, a Washington, D.C.-based public advocacy group. "This will hopefully put pressure on them to cut calories and reformulate their products."
Some companies already have. Retail giant Walmart recently announced its plan to slash the salt, sugar, and fat in its own brand of packaged foods over the next five years, making it the largest manufacturer to do so. If this trend continues, your waistline will benefit–no matter which cereal you choose.

Following the Path of Discovery
Repeat Famous Experiments and Inventions
|Fair Projects
|Scientists & Inventors
|Science Jokes
Everyone needs oxygen to survive – man and animals alike. Furthermore, oxygen is the third most abundant element in the universe and makes up nearly 21% of the earth's atmosphere. Oxygen accounts for nearly half of the mass of the earth's crust, two thirds of the mass of the human body and nine tenths of the mass of water.
In this page we will try to outline the path to the discovery of this important substance.
Oxygen was discovered for the first time by a Swedish Chemist, Carl Wilhelm Scheele, in 1772. Joseph Priestly, an English chemist, independently, discovered oxygen in 1774 and published his findings the same year, three years before Scheele published. Antoine Lavoisier, a French chemist, also discovered oxygen in 1775, was the first to recognize it as an element, and coined its name "oxygen" - which comes from a Greek word that means "acid-former".
There is a historic dispute about who discovered oxygen. Most credit Priestly alone or Both Priestly and Scheele. To learn more about this dispute go to the link section, at the bottom of this page.
In 1772, Carl Wilhelm Scheele discovered that red-hot manganese oxide produces a gas. He called the gas "fire air" because of the brilliant sparks it produced when it came in contact with hot charcoal dust. He repeated this experiment by heating potassium nitrate, mercury oxide, and many other materials and produced the same gas. He collected the gas in pure form using a small bag. He explained the properties of "fire air" using the phlogiston theory, which was soon discredited by Lavoisier. He carefully recorded his experiments in his notes, but waited several years before publishing them.
In 1774, Priestley repeated Scheele's experiments using a 12-inch-wide glass "burning lens", he focused sunlight on a lump of reddish mercuric oxide in an inverted glass container. The gas emitted, he found, was "five or six times as good as common air." (1) In succeeding tests, it caused a flame to burn intensely and kept a mouse alive about four times as long as a similar quantity of air.
Priestley, a big supporter of the phlogiston theory, called his discovery "dephlogisticated air" on the theory that it supported combustion so well because it had no phlogiston in it, and hence could absorb the maximum amount during burning.
Repeat Scheele's and Priestley experiments:
Warning: Heating up materials and breathing vapors could be very dangerous. As a rule: this experiment should be performed under the supervision of teachers or adults familiar with safety procedures. Consult your teacher or other knowledgeable adults and experts about how to obtain the mentioned materials and how to use them properly and safely in this experiment. Do not do this experiment alone!
Consult the link section and further resources provided. Ensure that you understand the basic principals. Surf the web and consult your local library, your teacher and other knowledgeable adults and experts.
In August of 1771, Joseph Priestley, put a sprig of mint into a transparent closed space with a candle that burned out the air until it soon went out. After 27 days, he relit the extinguished candle again and it burned perfectly well in the air that previously would not support it. And how did Priestley light the candle if it was placed in a closed space? He focused sun light beams with a mirror onto the candle wick (Priestley had no bright source of light, and had to rely on the sun). Today, of course, we can use more sophisticated methods to light the candle like focusing light from a flood light through converging lens, or by an electrical spark.
So priestly proved that plants somehow change the composition of the air.
In another celebrated Experiment from 1772, Priestley kept a mouse in a jar of air until it collapsed. He found that a mouse kept with a plant would survive. However, we do not recommend to repeat this experiment and hurt innocent animals.
These kinds of observations led Priestley to offer an interesting hypothesis that plants restore to the air whatever breathing animals and burning candles remove - what was later coined by Lavoisier "oxygen".
In these experiments, Priestly was the first to observe that plants release oxygen into the air - the process known to us as photosynthesis.

Not so long ago, I needed to prepare a canvas. I got out the roll of linen, scissors, and other supplies. As I was laying things out, I glanced over at a painting on my easel that was partially done. This painting had a few areas that were frustrating me. Analyzing it for a few minutes got a few ideas brewing in my mind. This reminded me of an image I had seen in one of my art books. So I got it off my shelf to see how that artist handled a similar problem. I began looking through the book, page by page, getting inspired and excited – and distracted by other, unrelated images. A casual glance at the essay in the book distracted me even more. Soon, I was lost into philosophizing about art. I went to grab a water bottle (or maybe a soda) and sat down on my chair to read. But as I went to sit down, I saw the canvas roll on the floor, with the other supplies strewn about. Somewhere in that ordeal, I think I even started thumbing through a few photos and plein air studies – getting ideas for yet another painting.
I had not gotten much done that morning.
Recently, a friend of mine (Jake Gaedtke) and I were visiting at his studio. I was impressed with how he compartmentalizes different aspects of his art. He has his studio – where he focuses on creating. In a separate building, adjacent to his garage, is his workshop where he prepares canvases, frames his art, and does packing and shipping. In his home, he has his office to take care of all the business side of things. Each is separated, yet only a few yards (meters for those who prefer metric), apart.
What a great idea, I thought.
Jake went on to share some things he learned about Walt Disney. Disney's animation studio was divided into Creator, Realist, and Critic. Each is essential to the creative process. But they must each be separated to enable full attention to the task at hand, without the distraction of the others. Brilliant!
As I went back to my studio, I realized that I don't compartmentalize the different aspects of my art very well. I do have my computer and office at home (I rent a space for my studio), but it was out of necessity rather than intentionally separating the two. But aside from that, my creating space is mingled with my workshop where I prepare canvas, do framing, shipping, etc. I need to create a division so that I can do better at staying focused – especially while creating.
How do you compartmentalize your art – or do you?
Best Wishes,
Keith Bond

There are three commonly known types of artichokes-Globe, Jerusalem, and Chinese. Most commonly in the United States you will find Globe which are mostly produced in California. Jerusalem however are beginning to show up in markets and on restaurant menus.
When looking for artichokes in the grocery store or at your local farmer's market you should always choose ones that have a vibrant green color with as few blemishes as possible. Is the tips of the leaves are becoming brown then they are probably getting old. You also want to look at the leaves. The tighter they are around the base the better; if the artichoke looks open then it is getting old. Finally, it should be fairly heavy for its size.
Artichokes are fairly perishable so you should eat them within 4 to 5 days of purchase. When you get them home simply store them in the refrigerator, unwashed until you are ready to use them.
Getting your artichoke ready for cooking and eating is simple. All you have to do is rinse it well under cold running water and cut off any parts that are blemished. Most people peel off the outer few small leaves by the base and you can even trim the base to make it look nice. If you are stuffing the artichoke then you should slice off the top inch where the leaves are pointy. Some people cut off all the pointy edges of the leaves, but if you are simply steaming and eating the leaves this is not necessary.
One of the simplest ways to prepare and eat an artichoke is to steam it whole and peel the leaves off one by one dipping them in a simple olive oil dressing, scraping the meat off the leaves. Once you get all the way to the bottom, remove the hair from the heart and enjoy the meat. Or you can of course stuff them. If you want to sauté or braise them and add them to another dish like pasta then you need to get to the heart. Peel off all the leaves (you can steam the artichokes and eat the leaves so nothing goes to waste) and chop up the heart for cooking or addition to a recipe.

King County sheriff's deputies have arrested a 25-year-old Kent man in connection with the death of a teenage girl last December.
The man has been booked into the Regional Justice Center in Kent on investigation of homicide, the Sheriff's Office announced today. Bail was set at $100,000.
Kelsey Carter, 16, had been reported as a runaway from her Enumclaw home in October. The night of Dec. 11 she was at a home in the 33900 block of Southeast Green River Headworks Roads.
There was a shooting in the home and the girl was hit. Occupants of the house put her in a truck and drove her to Enumclaw Regional Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, deputies report.
Earlier that night, the girl's mother had spotted her with her 25-year-old boyfriend. The mother called 911 and reported seeing her daughter on the deck of the house on Green River Headworks Road, smoking.
Before deputies arrived, two vehicles left the house. The mother didn't know if her daughter was in one of them, deputies reported.
Deputies interviewed three men inside the house, including the girl's boyfriend. They said she wasn't there. The men didn't grant deputies permission to go inside.
More than two hours later, the girl was mortally wounded in the shooting.
Deputies had asked the Kent man to talk to them about the homicide Tuesday. He was booked into jail afterward.
A press release from the Sheriff's Office didn't specify a motive for the slaying or the relationship between the girl and the man under arrest in her death.

onsite offerings The Nines has a 24-hour fitness facility, in-room massage treatments, and two full-service restaurants—Urban Farmer, a modern steakhouse set within the atrium focusing on local provisions, with simple, straightforward preparations of meats, poultry and seafood raised by local ranchers, farmers and fishermen, and Departure, which opens this April and will offer innovative Asian cuisine in an eclectic setting on the hotel's rooftop (it's a must, especially for those stunning views of Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helens). And if you upgrade your clients to the Club Level, they'll have snacks and drinks available five times a day in the well-appointed and subdued Club Lounge.
And those guests who love to sip a cocktail while cozying up to their favorite book will love the onsite Library, stocked with books from Powell's Books, which claims to be the world's largest independent used and new bookstore.
Opening Package, which is good through 2009, is $249 per night and includes overnight accommodations and parking.
what to do Take a hike: With proximity to Mount Hood, the Columbia River Gorge and home to hiking trails and parks filled with pine trees and natural wonders, the city serves as an excellent hub for nature- and adventure-loving clients.
Culture, anyone?: If your culturally inclined clients didn't experience enough art within The Nines, Portland is home to a symphony and baroque orchestra, a ballet company, an opera company, over 20 theater companies, several annual music festivals, more than 150 art galleries, numerous museums and a wide array of enticing cultural treats.
Show me the shops: If your clients would rather put their credit cards to work, Portland's downtown area will become home. The Nines sits above a 5-story Macy's department store and Pioneer Place—a multi-building shopping center—is right across the street, plus designer boutiques and a Nordstrom department store are all within two blocks of the hotel.
For a distinctly local shopping experience, a short cab ride or bike ride away (bikes are available for rental at the hotel) will lead clients to NW 23rd Avenue—referred to by locals as "Trendy Third." Clients can stroll the avenue and find everything from local designer boutiques to independent music stores, as well as shops selling everything from ceramics to jewelry. Just a stroll down 23rd is worth it for window shopping alone, and most anyone will find a shop that interests them.
Dining delights: If 23rd is home to fun, local shopping, then its sister street, 21st, is the avenue of gastronomy. Many of the highly rated signature restaurants in Portland can be found on NW 21st Avenue. Tell your clients if they want an amazing brunch, they can go to Mother's Bistro & Bar, just five blocks away from the hotel.

Brakes problem
1991 Plymouth Acclaim Front Wheel Drive Automatic
The back brakes act like the a shoe is either loose or broken onthe drivers side rear. It locks up on me after I put on the brakes. But my real problem is getting the drums off is their something holding them on? I have sprayed the studs with lube and beat on the drums. I cantell that they are free from the studs but still will not come off. I am guessing maybe the pads have worn a groove inthe drum making a lip that I cannot get over. I backed off the pads as far as I can through the adjustment on the back with no luck. Any ideas?
have the same problem?

Submitted by Lance Roberts of STA Wealth Management,
1. Nothing To Fear From Fed Rate Increase
There is an overwhelming consensus of opinion that the markets, and the majority of mainstream commentators, that when the Fed begins raising rates that it is a "good thing."
The primary premise behind that consensus is that the economy is now growing steady enough to absorb the impact of higher interest rates. This opinion was espoused yesterday by Kansas City Fed President Esther George who stated:
"I don't want us to be behind the curve in beginning to normalize interest rates. When you see the economy getting as close as we are to full employment, to stable inflation, it would suggest to me that the time has come to do that."
There are a couple of things worth considering at this point:
1) As I addressed previously, the economy is very closely tied to the cost of capital. When you consider that a large chunk of corporate profitability as of late has been created through the use of cheap loans to buy back shares, rising borrowing costs make this option much less lucrative. Rising borrowing costs also directly impact the consumer spending through variable rate credit, auto sales as loan payments rise, and housing through increase mortgage payments. (The referenced article has further points on this issue)
2) With regards to the statement, on full employment there is really only one type of employment that ultimately matters which is full-time. Part-time and temporary employment do not foster household formation, higher levels of consumer spending or increased tax revenues. The issue is that even though the unemployment rate is approaching levels of "full-employment," it has been primarily a function of the shrinking of the labor force. As shown in the chart below, full-time employment is basically at the same level as it has been since the financial crisis as "real employment" has primarily been a function of population growth and little else.
3) There is little evidence that current levels of inflation are stable. As I wrote in "Will The Fed Move To Soon", the decline in economic growth globally, along with increased deflationary pressures, is likely to be reflected in the domestic economy sooner than later. Furthermore, given the fact that it is highly likely that the U.S. will have another exceptionally cold winter, the reality is that current levels of inflation have been little more than a transient surge. (See: Worse Than 1930's Depression, Europe's Recession)
There is little argument over the fact that the current economic growth rate has been "sluggish" at best and that growth has been primarily supported by the Federal Reserve's ongoing balance sheet expansion. The Federal Reserve is now going to start increasing interest rates, removing that accommodation, at a time when economic growth is at extremely low levels. The question that we must consider is whether the "patient" can survive without "life support."
4) Lastly, the table below shows the history of Federal Reserve rate hikes, from the month of the first increase in the 3-month average of the effective Fed Funds rate to the onset of either a recession, market correction or both.
The average number of months between the first rate hike and a recession has been 42.4 with a median of 35 months. However, if we take out the two extremely long periods of 98 months following the 1961 increase and 84 months following 1994; the average falls to just 28.6 months. Given the fact that the current economic cycle is extremely weak and, at more than 60 months, already the fifth longest Post-WWII recovery, it is likely that even 28 months is on the long end.
The average stock market correction following the first rate has occurred 21.2 months later. If the first rate hike occurs in 2015, this would put the next market correction in 2016 which would correspond with my recent analysis on the collision of the "Decennial and Presidential Cycles:"
However, the IMPORTANT FACT is that the number of times the Federal Reserve has hiked interest rates without a negative economic or market impact has been exactly ZERO.
2. Stock Buybacks On The Decline
As discussed above, one to the impacts of rising interest rates is an increased cost of capital which makes two things MUCH less lucrative. The first, and most importantly, is the "carry trade" which has been a primary driver of asset prices over the last five years. Banks have been able to borrow capital at effectively zero, leverage it, and then buy higher yielding assets to capture the spread. This has created an immense amount of profitability for banks, in particular, in recent years. However, higher borrowing costs significantly reduce that profitability.
Secondly, corporations have been using exceptionally low interest rates to borrow capital, not for the purposes of ramping up production and capital investments, but to buy back stock to artificially boost profits per share. The focus on share buy backs has been intense over the last couple of years as the benefits of cost cutting, employment reductions and wage suppression met their inevitable limits. Like other profitability gimmicks, share buybacks are also finite in nature. After more than two years of increased share repurchases, recent data suggests that this may be coming to an end. As Brett Arends penned:
"U.S. corporations have been spending hundreds of billions of dollars a year buying in their own stock, simultaneously increasing the demand for the stock and reducing the supply. And this matters right now because…er…they just stopped.
The amount spent on share buybacks plunged by more than 20% last quarter...As SG notes, 'US corporates (have) been the major net buyer of US equity in recent years, purchasing over $500 billion of stock last year alone.' But, notes the bank, this happy trend may be drawing to a close."
The ready supply of "free capital" has been a "punch bowl" to corporations from which they have drunk deeply. According to the Federal Reserve, corporate debt has risen 27% over the past five years to $9.6 trillion. So, much for those deleveraged balance sheets and when the Federal Reserve does increase interest rates; a major supporter of asset prices in recent years will disappear.
3. The Taper Effect
The team at GaveKal Capital did a great piece of research confirming something that I have discussed many times in the past which is simply that everything is tied to the Federal Reserve's liquidity interventions.
As the Federal Reserve has begun to taper their ongoing bond purchases, now at $25 billion and expected to be eliminated by October, the effect has been felt on a host of asset classes and economic statistics from inflation to stocks. To wit:
"...the number of stocks trading above their 200-day moving average has dropped back in line with what the taper model would suggest. If this continues to follow suit, we could see the fewest number of stocks trading above their 200-day moving average in over 2+ years."
There are two important points to take away from this analysis. First, as I discussed previously, there is an ongoing belief that the current financial market trends will continue to head only higher. This is a dangerous concept that is only seen near peaks of cyclical bull market cycles. While the analysis above suggests that the current bull market could certainly last some time longer, it is important to remember that it is "only like this, until it is like that."
The problem for most investors is that by they time they recognize the change in the underlying dynamics, it will be too late to be proactive. This is where the real damage occurs as emotionally driven, reactive, behaviors dominate logical investment processes.

Cernovich Media, in association with Wesearchr, is offering a recurring award for instances of journalistic quid pro quos. Citizen researchers who discover an undisclosed quid pro quo will receive a $100 reward.
What is a quid pro quo? Here's a textbook example:
Nick Bilton wrote a puff piece on Sam Biddle entitled, "Disruptions: A Blogger Mocks the Denizens of Silicon Valley." This article appeared in the Times on August 25, 2013.
The article is here: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/08/25/disruptions-a-blogger-mocks-the-denizens-of-silicon-valley/
Sam Biddle then wrote a glowing review of Nick Bilton's book on Gawker. The article was entitled, "Jack Dorsey Screwed His Friends at Twitter," and it appeared on October 9, 2013.
That article is here: http://valleywag.gawker.com/jack-dorsey-screwed-his-friends-at-twitter-1442895501
The timing of these articles suggests an undisclosed quid pro quo between Bilton. In neither article did the authors disclose their reciprocal "journalistic" relationship.
I've deposited $10,000 into my Wesearchr account. Wesearchr will award the bounties as they come in.
Some tips to researchers: Run a Google search (or write some code) using the names of two "journalists." You'll be surprised by how many undisclosed quid pro quos there are out there.
Wesearchr will be managing this project. Submit your examples to them.
I realize a quid pro quo can be hard to prove without a smoking gun email, so here's a good guideline: Find two puff pieces published by two different "journalists" about one another in close proximity to one another. A day or two is great, a year might even be close enough in proximity to establish a quid pro quo.
Email Mark at Wesearchr with your tips. He'll award bounties on a rolling basis.

The biggest transaction news out of Winter Park this week was the Monday night release of kicker Ryan Longwell, the Vikings cutting ties with the veteran kicker after six seasons. Longwell made 135 regular season field goals and 228 extra points during his days in purple. In fact, if you're curious as to when the Vikings last played a game without Longwell, you'd have to rewind to Jan. 1, 2006, a 34-10 blowout of Chicago. Paul Edinger was the Vikings kicker then, Brad Johnson was the quarterback, Mike Tice was in his final game as head coach. (For further perspective, at that time Jared Allen was finishing his second season in Kansas City, Adrian Peterson was finishing his sophomore year at Oklahoma and Christian Ponder was a budding senior at Colleyville Heritage High School in Texas.)
On when the decision was made to move on from Longwell …
