Islands in the city; Reggae, calypso, bright colors and spicy fare bring Caribbean to life.
WORCESTER -- The city dropped its normally staid New England countenance for a few sunny hours on Sunday afternoon and shook its hips in an uproar of canary yellow, jade, orange and purple feathers and sequins.
The inaugural Worcester Caribbean Carnival got off to a rousing and racy start with a small parade of exotically costumed dancers shimmying and gyrating their way down Park Avenue to an exuberant Island beat blaring from a truck packed with powerful speakers.
The colorful procession danced its way from Foley Stadium on Chandler Street to Institute Park, where a crowd gathered to enjoy reggae and calypso music, and spicy Island fare ranging from jerk chicken to curry goat.
The dancers, upbeat music and smell of jerk chicken and pork on the grill were enough to fool Junior Troder, a native of the Virgin Islands who now lives in Worcester.
"I feel like I'm in the islands now. Most definitely,'' he said.
Sam Tatum of Worcester doesn't have any personal connection to the Caribbean, but he grabbed a straw hat, a cigar and his brother, Spencer, and headed to the park to enjoy the fun just the same.
"This is a great thing. The music, the food, the sights,'' Mr. Tatum said.
Steven Jones, the owner and chef at Worcester's Belmont Vegetarian restaurant, found a shady spot near the stage to enjoy the festival with his friends.
Originally from Jamaica, Mr. Jones said he was gratified to see people from all over enjoying the Island culture he grew up with.
"This is a piece of the whole Caribbean. The music reminds me of back home. The food and friends,'' Mr. Jones said. "We always do things like this. This is just like what you'd see back home. It's great to see so many people here enjoying this.''
Mr. Jones said he hopes the Worcester Caribbean Carnival Association will make it an annual event.
The association's president, Jennifer J. Gaskin, said she noticed after moving to Worcester from Boston a few years ago that the city had a vibrant and growing Caribbean community, but, oddly, no Caribbean festival like the ones in Boston and Cambridge and many other cities.
She and fellow carnival organizers set about to change that.
Judging from the big turnout and acres of smiles at Institute Park for the inaugural Caribbean Carnival, Worcester enjoyed its chance to shake its hips Island style and will be back for more.

WASHINGTON — The Federal Trade Commission on Thursday handed Google a major victory by declaring, after an investigation of nearly two years, that the company had not violated antitrust or anticompetition statutes in the way it arranges its Web search results.
By allowing Google to continue to present search results that highlight its own services, the F.T.C. decision could enable Google to further strengthen its already dominant position on the Internet.
It also enables Google to avoid a costly and lengthy legal war of attrition like the antitrust battle that Microsoft waged in the 1990s. That fight took an enormous toll on Microsoft and opened the door for competitors like Google to become the technology sector's new leaders. Now, a weakened Microsoft was among those most vocal in complaining that Google was unfairly abusing a monopolistic position to thwart its rivals.
Google, which attracts 70 percent of all search queries in the United States, has used its search business, which generates billions of dollars in profit annually from advertising, to expand into businesses that include maps, restaurant reviews and travel bookings. Competitors worry that the F.T.C.'s decision will allow Google to continue to make inroads at their expense.
The decision sets up a potential conflict with European officials, who are working with Google to resolve similar concerns about the way the company operates its search engine in Europe, where it is even more dominant than in the United States.
Web search has become vital to the success of many businesses. Being ranked higher in search results can mean a great deal more traffic and revenue; being ranked lower can hurt both. Google has long claimed that it uses a neutral algorithm for search queries, something that competitors disputed.
But Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the F.T.C., said that "While not everything Google did was beneficial, on balance we did not believe that the evidence supported an F.T.C. challenge to this aspect of Google's business under American law."
The five-member commission voted unanimously to close its investigation without bringing charges, although some staff members argued vigorously that Google should face sanctions for using online search results to draw consumer traffic to its own services. The F.T.C. said it had found that Google's practices improved its search results for the benefit of users and that "any negative impact on actual or perceived competitors was incidental to that purpose."
Google did agree to make some minor changes to its search practices related to search advertising. The F.T.C. said those commitments were enforceable if the company violated them, but the agreement avoided a formal consent decree or litigation, weapons that the F.T.C. had available.
One F.T.C. commissioner, J. Thomas Rosch, said in a partial dissent that the commission would not be able to hold Google to its promises in any meaningful way, as it might do through a contempt proceeding or a fine.
Competitors said the war was not over. Fairsearch.org, a group of Google rivals including Microsoft, said Thursday's action left the F.T.C. "without a major role in the final resolution to the investigations of Google's anticompetitive practices by state attorneys general and the European Commission. The F.T.C.'s inaction on the core question of search bias will only embolden Google to act more aggressively to misuse its monopoly power to harm other innovators."
In a less-watched part of the investigation, which will have a less direct impact on consumers, the commission found that Google had misused its broad patents on cellphone technology, and it ordered Google to make that technology available to rivals. That order may benefit phone manufacturers that use either Google's Android operating system or competing systems. Some F.T.C. officials said that in the long run, the sanctions could be a bigger victory for consumers, encouraging the development of more innovative devices.
But the broadest impact of the F.T.C.'s action is to present more competitive challenges to companies that do specialty searches, for things like travel or shopping. Consumers will continue to see what has now become familiar on Google — the presence of results that link to Google's other businesses. When a consumer searches for "airfare to Los Angeles," for example, the most prominent results are generated by Google's own travel business, rather than by the likes of Expedia, Priceline or Kayak.
On the company's Web site, David Drummond, a senior vice president at Google and its chief legal officer, wrote, "The conclusion is clear: Google's services are good for users and good for competition."
Mr. Leibowitz, the F.T.C. chairman, called Google's lifting of content from other Web sites "the most troubling of its business practices related to search and search advertising." The company agreed to stop taking its rivals' content, particularly reviews of things like restaurants or consumer products, for use in its own specialized search results.
Yelp, a consumer review site, complained that Google took parts of its reviews and placed them in its own results. When competitors objected, Google threatened to remove them entirely from results, something Mr. Leibowitz said "is clearly problematic and potentially harmful to competition because it might harm incentives to innovate."
Google also agreed to stop contractual restrictions that prevented small businesses from advertising on competing search platforms.
Last year, some F.T.C. staff members pushed hard in reports to the commission that the company's actions constituted "unfair methods of competition," an area that, like that of antitrust, is policed by the F.T.C. But the trade commission faced a struggle in proving malicious intent — that Google changes its search algorithm to purposely harm competitors and favor itself.
Antitrust lawyers say anticompetitive behavior cannot be proved simply by showing that a change in the algorithm affects other Web sites and causes sites to show up lower in results, even though studies have shown that users rarely look beyond the first page of search results.

Got The Small-Block Blues? Get Blown
It wasn't until those rare days when the first demure, unmarked '68 Darts and Barracudas rolled off the car trailers from the Hurst facility in Michigan that people began to fear the high-horsepower-plus-little-body combo potential of the A-Bodies. What followed was the single greatest corporate rebellion in professional drag racing history, landing the infamous Super Stock Darts and Barracudas their rightful place in the annals of the NHRA and IHRA.
Rocky Audenried's '67 GT isn't a Super Stock clone, nor does it even attempt to simulate the signature look of those thoroughbred racers. Rather, Rocky took a page from Dodge's book, Other People's Classic Mistakes in Underestimation, and built himself a Dart that nobody would suspect as being anything more than a cruiser, and swiftly ate their lunch. This supercharged small-block has plenty of power on tap, and the right mannerisms to take it out onto the street any day of the week.
Rocky's brother had just completed a gorgeous '69 Plymouth Road Runner when he chose to put his '67 Dart GT up for sale. Rocky and his family own and operate a summer-long seasonal restaurant in Lee Vining, California, when they aren't living in Sun Valley, Nevada, their usual home. Taking the A-Body from his brother, Rocky had to leave the car parked outside in the California dessert sun since their resort town didn't have a garage to store the vehicle. For seven months in 2000, the car sat until Rocky could take it back home to Nevada and begin the winter-long rebuild. Luckily, the car was straight as an arrow, totally rust-free, and, all together, a great platform to start any project.
An all-new front suspension was needed, so they replaced the old ball joints and bushings with a complete polygraphite kit. A set of subframe connectors helped to tighten up the body to keep it from flexing under the impending strain of the engine combination that Rocky had in mind. An 831/44 rearend was loaded up with 3.91 gears, Moser axles, Super Stock springs, a heavy-duty shackle kit, and an adjustable pinion snubber. In addition, incredible stopping power was slated for the little car with massive Wilwood discs at each wheel, and BFG rubber was wrapped around 15-inch Stockton TQ rims.
Once the car could sit on its own four wheels, it was wheeled into the paint booth to be repainted its original factory orange color, sans the white highlight stripes. Going the extra mile, B&T Custom Rods of Reno, Nevada, wet-sanded the sprayed A-Body, polished it, and finally buffed out the paint to bring out that rich, wet look that great paint jobs can pull off.
The powerplant started as a regular 360 short-block with a .509 hydraulic cam with 10:1 compression pistons. Edelbrock Performance RPM aluminum cylinder heads and a matching RPM Air Gap intake manifold reside atop the small-block with a complete set of Crane rockers. A Mighty Demon sits above the intake, and it is plumbed to the side-mounted supercharger ramming super-cooled compressed air down its throat. A Be Cool crossflow radiator with dual 11-inch fans, a Be Cool recovery tank and fan control box keep the temperatures below boiling under the blazing Nevada sun. A sprawling tti exhaust system with Dynomax mufflers expels the fumes out from under the rear bumper, while a competition 904 automatic transmission with a 3,500 stall torque converter and B&M Mega Shifter bang away at the gears.
Keeping the potent powerhouse fed is a fuel cell and electric fuel pump next to the trunk-mounted battery. Besides the blatant lack of luggage space, the Dart is now setup for plenty of traction-producing weight above the rear wheels for such a lightweight vehicle. Rocky's little '67 GT might look to be a nice clean Dart, but with that supercharger whistling away, it's enough to warn you not to underestimate it when you see it pulling up next to you.

In his recent BIS speech, Rajan argues that monetary policy at the zero lower bound requires an impossible commitment. For the Fed to get real rates low enough for the economy to "lift-off", the only option is to raise expectations of future inflation. But what happens when that future arrives? Now that the economy has escaped the zero lower bound, the Fed is tempted to renege and stick to the original inflation target. Market participants, knowing this, then refuse to believe the original commitment, leaving the Fed stuck.
The same argument was made in reverse to explain why the Fed could not escape the high inflation equilibrium of the 1970's. As argued by Barro and Gordon, the Fed declares that it wants low inflation. If this is credible, then agents lower their expectations of inflation. However, this tempts the Fed into actually delivering high inflation to exploit the Philips curve relation and lower unemployment. As a result, the Fed is stuck at high inflation.
But the Fed escaped. The last release of the PCE price index came in at just 1.0% year over year, suggests that, if anything, the Fed lowered inflation too much. How did policy do this? In the case of moving from high inflation to low inflation, the solution was simple: adopt an inflation target. If the Fed only has to keep inflation from deviating from a target, then of course it will not cheat with any kind of surprise inflation. This kind of target can also be self reinforcing through a reputation mechanism, as the Fed knows that if it cheats now it will hurt more in the future. This removes the temptation to renege as unemployment deviations no longer matter. In the end, the Fed was successful. It managed to lower inflation from around 8% in the 1970's to the 2% levels we see today.
The target is just as important today. If the entire goal is to keep inflation at 2%, then of course there can be no commitment to forward guidance! But that is a criticism of inflation targeting, not forward guidance. Therefore the Fed needs to change its policy target. If the Fed decides its operating procedure no longer is to keep inflation at 2%, but rather to keep nominal GDP on a 5% trend, this drastically changes the perception of what is credible. The Fed no longer needs to "credibly promise to be irresponsible" -- it can just change the definition of responsibility.
If it seems magical that the Fed can change this definition so easily, it's because the loss functions that underpin these models of time inconsistency are arbitrary. In the Barro and Gordon case, the reason low inflation was time inconsistent was because unemployment deviations were included. Once the Fed ignored unemployment, its actions were time consistent. In the current forward guidance case, the reason high inflation is inconsistent is because the inflation rate is in the loss function. Therefore replacing inflation with a nominal GDP term would solve the time inconsistency problem now. The Fed gets to determine these costs. With the right loss function, credible policy becomes almost obvious.
The government can take steps towards this in many different ways. On the Fed side, they could come out with announcements saying that they are more concerned about stabilizing certain level variables -- for example nominal GDP. This would show that the Fed's loss function is changing, and therefore the expected policy adjusts. On the congressional side, they could pass a law that defines the dual mandate in terms of a nominal GDP target. This institutional reform would make Fed commitments to low future rates credible and help pull them out of the zero lower bound.
When nominal GDP targeting is cast as a framework for making future paths of interest rates credible, the implementation details of a nominal GDP target also become self evident. It's no longer a "whatever it takes" target, rather it becomes a template for adjusting the nominal interest rate. Raise the policy rate if nominal GDP is above trend, lower the rate if it's below. And if nominal GDP is so far below trend that your interest rate is stuck at zero, then provide forward guidance that the interest rate will be at zero until nominal GDP normalizes. Even though this is about future policy, there is no commitment problem. The promise is already optimal.
Therefore, nominal GDP target can make policy on the monetary instrument even more rule based. A well-defined target may make unconventional policies such as quantitative easing unnecessary -- forward guidance would be able to deliver similar results. As evidence, the recent whispers of Fed tapering have shown up most strongly in the forecasts of future interest rates. While this might seem peculiar because the Fed has not said anything about future rates, it is natural if QE is seen as a signal of the Fed's stance on future rates. Gavyn Davies notes:
There is evidence that this signalling effect of Fed balance sheet changes might be very powerful. If the Fed is not willing to "put its money where its mouth is" by buying bonds, then the market might take its promises to hold short rates at zero less seriously than before. According to this recent research by the San Francisco Fed, it is possible that a sizeable proportion of the total effect of QE on bond yields came from these signalling effects rather than the portfolio balance effects which have usually been emphasised by the central banks.If this is the case, then the credibility effect of a nominal GDP target on forward guidance would be enough. Long rates across the board -- MBS, treasury, corporate debt -- could be lowered merely by the expected future path of rates without direct Fed intervention into those markets. Note that because inflation targeting would suffer from credibility issues when it comes to forward guidance, it can get stuck with a persistently negative output gap. This may end up forcing policy makers to deviate from the rule. So surprisingly, nominal GDP targeting would actually be more rule-based as a result.
Credibility is no problem at the zero lower bound. A nominal GDP target would go a long ways towards securing it -- in both practice and theory.

Updated: Sunday, April 13 with additional comments.
Twenty Colorado breweries hauled in 24 awards at the World Beer Cup 2014 held Friday night at the Hyatt Regency hotel in downtown Denver, including 10 gold medal awards.
Most surprising, however, was how many of those awards went to small breweries and upstarts, not the medium-sized and well-known craft brewers that typically dominate brewing awards.
In place of mainstays like New Belgium Brewing, Avery Brewing Co. and Great Divide Brewing, medals instead went to Wit's End Brewing of Denver, Verboten Brewing of Loveland and year-old Riff Raff Brewing of
Poncha Pagosa Springs.

A website for all photography-lovers!
What you will find
I love photography! So this website is all about it. If you love this theme like I do, you will get some nice ideas and tips from this page.
I know it isn't easy to find the right gifts for friends, but if they love photography, I will give you some nice ideas. You will find special cameras or gear, camera bags for women or special ones for men (we'll call them beer coolers!). And if you'd like to use these gifts for yourself… feel free ;-).
I know there are a million printing services out there, but in this category I will test and write about them. So if you are looking for a photo book or photo cards --you will find them here. Also, I will present some providers for canvas prints, magnets and more.
This is a completely new category of CoolPhotoIdeas! If you love taking pictures and you have plenty of them that need to be shown – and you don't want to use platforms like Flickr or 500px – then you have the possibility of presenting them through your own website. I tested some providers – here are the results.
This is also a new category. Here you'll find ideas for "going out and shooting." I'll give you some ideas, themes and techniques. (Coming soon.)
Here you'll find some ideas for arranging your pictures at home. How can you create a perfect photo wall, photo shelf or other photo displays? You'll find out by reading this site! Also, you will discover framing ideas and much more.

I've had a bag of raw pumpkin seeds sitting in my fridge for the last few weeks. For Tangra Fall last month, the Chinese-Indian pop-up feast I hosted with Chitra from The ABCD's of Cooking, we had experimented with a bunch of recipes before settling on our final menu. One of the dishes was Kung Pao Brussels Sprouts served with roasted delicata squash. Along with the pumpkin seeds, I had a bag of leftover seeds from the squash as well.
Today I finally decided to fire up my oven to roast these seeds. As much as I love the purist version, tossed with a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, I wanted to give these seeds a little kick and add some other spices as well.
The most time-consuming hands-on thing you have to do with pumpkin seeds is clean them. I usually rinse them in a bowl of cold water to loosen up all the pumpkin/squash fiber, then dry them on a kitchen towel for a few hours or overnight. (Or in this case, leave them sitting in my fridge and counter for a few weeks.)
Onward to the flavoring part. I used ground Sichuan pepper and cayenne pepper for the smokiness and tongue-tingling goodness. Then I smashed a few cloves of garlic because, really, anything roasted with garlic smells and tastes amazing. And then added some ground ginger, salt, and pepper too.
Okay, so you know how some of the best snack foods on earth have are both salty and sweet? Kettle corn? Sea salt caramels? Sea salt caramel ice cream? I decided to add a bit of granulated sugar at the end right when the seeds came out of the oven (not before roasting, otherwise it melts and gets sticky.) The bit of sugar elevated these pumpkin seeds from great to YESSSS!!!
Do give these a try!
Do you roast pumpkin seeds for a snack? What do you like to add for flavoring? Let me know in the comments! Always up for new ideas.
Sichuan-Spiced Pumpkin Seeds
- 1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds (you can also use seeds from fall/winter squash like butternut, acorn, and delicata squash)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
- 1/4 teaspoon ground Sichuan pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (1/4 teaspoon if you'd prefer more of a kick)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl, toss the pumpkin seeds with the olive oil, garlic, Sichuan pepper, ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Spread the seeds and smashed garlic out on a single layer on a sheet pan. Roast for 20 minutes, then remove the sheet tray from the oven to give the seeds a good stir. Place back in the oven to roast for another 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown on top. (Smaller seeds like delicata squash seeds need only 25 minutes of roasting time total, so remove at the 10 minute mark to give them a good stir.)
- Remove from the oven. Toss on the pan with the granulated sugar. Allow the seeds to cool for 5 to 10 minutes on the pan before transferring to a dish to serve.

Linwelin Solutions
Linwelin Solutions is a fledgling software company that mainly focuses on the import/export market at the moment, but we will soon be branching out into other areas that may have nothing to do with this market as well.
We are a software company that focuses on the needs of business primarily. There are no current plans to sell to the everyday consumer market.
I would like the design to express sophistication but still fun.
We want the PSD (or equivalent if using another program besides Photoshop)
If you are using stock or clipart images, ensure that you have the rights to them and are able to transfer them to us.
We ask the winner to assign us ownership of the artwork. If you use any third party fonts, please let us know what they are.
The logo should also look good in black in white as it will likely be printed. No recycled logos please.
We need a logo that can stand alone for identity and branding purposes, so please do not include the name of the company in the logo (examples are Apple, Air Jordan, Nike.. etc) .
Feel free to use any colors or textures you wish. Be as creative as you want! We are going for a Web 2.0 look.
We are looking for a long term partnership with a designer so the winner will most likely receive future work from us directly.

Pilot program launched to support parents of children with disabilities
An innovative pilot program targeting parents of children with disabilities living in rural communities ranging from Silver Bay and Two Harbors to Willow River and McGregor is up and running and ready to serve families.
Priscilla Heimbruch, hired as the new Parent Support Mentor, is available to mentor and help parents by connecting them to needed services and resources, helping them understand the complications of the special education process, attending meetings with parents (if asked) and by lending a caring and listening ear to what parents experience while rearing children with disabilities.
Heimbruch will provide mentoring and support services to all parents of young children with disabilities living in the 12 school districts served by the Northern Lights Special Education Cooperative (NLSEC) in northeastern Minnesota and encourages parents to contact her.
The parent of a 17-year-old son with disabilities and a pre-school teacher, Heimbruch is a skilled veteran parent who understands first-hand what parents experience while parenting a child with special needs. She is able to reach out to parents through this innovative pilot program that aims to lessen family stress, improve access to resources and services and to help young children be successful by supporting their parents.
The program targets families living in 12 largely rural school districts served by the NLSEC and receives grant funding from the Van Gordon Fund of the Miller Dwan Foundation and the Northland Foundation, with additional support from Carlton County Public Health and Human Services, Cloquet Schools and the NLSEC.
Priscilla Heimbruch welcomes all parents of young children with disabilities living in these targeted school districts to contact her. She may be reached by phone at (218) 393-1200 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Welcome to Scriptique! We have found that our skills, talents and experiences have harmonized and blended together to create an interesting artistic expression; a fragrant offering and daily reminder to be light to others by reflecting what is truly important. To love others as you love yourself. To extend goodness and kindness and to live from a heart filled with faith.

Seattle- 1-206-948-2046.
We will be needing other design work in the future
We want our design to be similar to a design we saw at a website
http://www.shopqueenbee.com. There are a couple of pictures to look at. One is on the home page, the other is on the "Store Tour" page. Image #24 shows the best image of a woman holding garden tools by a vineyard. Here are some ideas of the design requirements we would like in our vision.
1. She will look noble, elegant but humble
2. She works with her hands, she's a gardner and a clothier. She dresses in linens and silk ribbons
3. she designs gowns and sells them
4. She brings gifts from afar.
5. She has a fun crown...
6.We like that she has fruit attached to her somewhere.
7.We like a vineyard in backgound somehow.
8. We also like wrought iron scrolly gates...get creative with this one!
9. Instead of holding a watering pot...change to glass lantern with light
10. The box around her chest..if you can figure a way to recapture the thought. It looks like a upsidedown cabinet with feet???
11. Perhaps the box on her mid section could be changed to a different cabinet that has two knobs as if you were to open it but it stays closed and the cabinet has panels on the front with pictures of merchant ships sailing out at sea.
12. If at all possiable if the womens face could not look like any one nationality... If you could give the face a little shading so you could not tell what nationality she was that would be helpful.

Perfect For the Active Music Lover
Combining portability, aesthetics, and comfort, the IE-FC300 In-Ear Headphones offer an engaging listening experience on the go. Detachable flat elastomer cable with gold-plated MMCX connectors ensures a noise-free link to your media player, and best of all, won't tangle when stored in your bag. With over 65 years of audio experience, Onkyo headphones deliver the sort of full-bodied sound you'd expect from a high-end stereo setup in a pair of portable IEMs. Noted for throwing a pleasingly deep soundstage, the newly designed 14.3 mm (9/16") drivers produce clear mids, crisp highs, and punchy bass that enriches all kinds of music. Form-fitting earpads are angled comfortably to provide a good seal against ambient noise, and they won't cause fatigue during longer listening sessions.
Experienced headphone users agree that bass response isn't a question of quantity, but quality. Drowning in poorly defined bass does no music any favors, whereas well-balanced low frequencies add weight and dynamism to all kinds of music. The tuning of the IE-FC300s is refined and perfected to produce deep, tuneful bass that doesn't overwhelm the middle frequency band.
The IE-FC300s feature an uncommonly large (14.3 mm (9/16"̋) dynamic or moving-coil-type transducer. The design is noted for its durability, accuracy, and ability to reproduce a wide frequency bandwidth, and it's perfected here in a particularly natural-sounding custom driver. Durable aluminum/ABS resin housing provides exceptional rigidity, reducing unwanted vibration. These drivers are sympathetic to compressed audio formats without sacrificing sensitivity for lossless and high-resolution playback.
The cable's flat cross-section not only keeps the conductive core insulated from noisy knocks and bumps; it also resists tangling when not in use.
Detachable MMCX connectors allow you to upgrade or replace the cable quickly and easily.
Onkyo protects your investment with the use of tough, impact-resistant materials. All cable connectors are gold plated to preserve signal integrity and resist the effects of corrosion, extending the life of your headphones.
Carrying case included.
The nozzle section on the IE-FC300s is angled to provide optimum comfort and a secure fit. Ergonomic soft-touch earpads provide a firm, comfortable seal against ambient noise, and won't fatigue during longer sessions. Running for a train or putting your feet up at home, you'll hardly know you're wearing them.
Free HF Player includes 16,000-BAND FIR equalizer with memory presets. The in-app purchase upgrade enables 192 kHz/24-BIT DSD, FLAC, WAV playback. The phase-linear FIR equalizer offers 16,384 discrete bands of equalization with zero loss in audio quality. Simply shape your desired frequency curve with a finger on the touchscreen — manipulate bass, mid-bass, mid-range, and treble response. Presets may be created to suit a particular musical genre, artist, album, or pair of headphones, and can be saved, swapped, and loaded in moments.

Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 53 diseños de 18 diseñadores freelance.
American Radiology Specialists
We are a group of American doctors who want to provide remote teleradiology services (interpreting CT scans, MRI scans, x-rays, ultrasound exams, etc) for international medical facilities outside the USA.
Our target audience would be medical clinics and hospitals throughout the world, with a specific focus on rapidly developing regions such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, China and India.
We are looking for a logo that conveys a sense of cutting-edge American medical imaging technology that overseas physicians would find appealing to enhance their own patient care as well as to improve their business marketing efforts. For example, an orthopedic surgeon at a premier clinic in Dubai can advertise to his target patient population that all of his patient's joint MRI scans will be read by Harvard trained American doctors (American Radiology Specialists). The markets that we are targeting have an inherent confidence in American medicine and American physicians. We would like to use that to our advantage.
Historically, these target clients have also been easily impressed by anything that seems "bigger, faster, better, sleeker" than the competition.
Of course, the logo should maintain a sense of professionalism from a medical standpoint since we are, after all, a group of doctors.....in short, the logo should be "sexy" but appropriate.
Ideally, we would like the logo to somehow incorporate our name (American Radiology Specialists) in the form of a symbol or abbreviation.

themobileart.com / themobileart.co.uk
A UK start-up focused on the delivery of enterprise and ISV consulting on iPhone and iPad development. In addition, a number of commercial business apps are in production. We may abbreviate to TMA in some contexts however the brand is The Mobile Art.
Mid-market to larger enterprises looking to develop in-house enterprise iOS applications. ISV looking to develop iOS apps to extend/complement more traditional software/services.
In addition, we may do app development on behalf of smaller organisations.
The brand must exude professionalism. We're looking to engage larger businesses and need a credible persona that conveys our offer, that said we want something edgy and definitely different, nothing boring or predictable.
The logo must be usable in a web page header, as an email footer graphic and on business documentation.
Beyond this initial project, I will have ongoing requirements for iPad icons, images etc..
Do :
Experiment with the initials TMA however the full name should be included also in some form, e.g. theMobileArt.
Experiment with generic, primitive mobile device symbols.
Keep the colour palette minimalistic - Greys, Chromes are a good starting point with maybe Lime Green or something web 2.0 in the mix. Hi-fidelity and uber cool is the order of the day.
Experiment with an iPhone app icon in the logo.
Don't :
Use iPad or IPhone imagery, we may extend the service to Blackberry
Use a rainbow of colours
Use cartoons, stock photos or clipart - it must be unique and protectable
Make it too complicated, elegant simplicity is key

CIIS Public Programs & Performances has an action-packed April in store for you with two amazing shows:
Catch The Rumi Concert: Lion of the Heart on Saturday, April 20th at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco. Jalaluddin Rumi, one of the world's most revered mystical poets, produced a prolific range of inspiring and devotional poetry that encapsulates the Sufi experience of union with the divine. Although Rumi was a Sufi and a scholar of the Qu'ran, his appeal reaches across religious and social divisions. This performance unites the classic poetry of the thirteenth century mystic with the innovative music, dance, and story of a remarkable ensemble: poet and Rumi translator Coleman Barks, cellist David Darling, world percussionist Glen Velez, and dancer and storyteller Zuleikha. It is a soul-stirring collaboration. Get your tickets HERE!
On Friday, April 26th, The Paris Combo brings their intriguing sound to the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. Fronted by the mischievous vocals of chanteuse Belle du Berry, the combo has struck a positive chord with critics and audiences for their fun-loving mix of jazz, French pop, cabaret, gypsy, Latino, and Middle Eastern rhythms. Get your tickets HERE!

Looks good. Bypasses the very restrictive factory airbox system. Not really any difference in sound under normal acceleration, but it roars to life at anything over half throttle. It resonates though the car. I'm not sure how much power it adds but the sound alone is worth it.

White Chili
White chili, with its chicken and white beans, is a great alternative to a tomato-based chili. Use a pressure canner to make and preserve this dish for later use. When you serve your white chili, garnish it with shredded Monterey Jack cheese and diced red bell pepper.
Preparation time: 15 minutes (not including soaking the beans)
Cooking time: 2 hours
Processing time: Pints, 1 hour, 15 minute; quarts, 1 hour, 30 minutes
Yield: About 5 pints or 2 quarts
1 pound small white beans, soaked overnight in water
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
2 quarts chicken stock
7-ounce can diced green chilies
3 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
4 cups cooked and diced chicken
Drain the beans.
Mince the garlic cloves.
Coarsely chop the onions.
Combine the beans, garlic, onions, stock, green chilies, cumin, oregano, cayenne pepper, and cloves in a 6- to 8-quart pot.
Bring the ingredients to a boil over high heat.
Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the beans are soft but don't disintegrate, about 30 minutes.
Add 4 cups cooked chicken to the pot.
Simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
Prepare your canning jars and two-piece caps (lids and screw bands) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Keep the jars and lids hot.
Ladle the hot chili into the prepared jars, leaving 1 inch of headspace.
Wipe the jar rims
Seal the jars with the two-piece caps, hand-tightening the bands.
Use a pressure canner to process your filled jars at 10 pounds.
If you're using pints, process for 1 hour and 15 minutes; for quarts, 1 hour and 30 minutes.
After the pressure in the canner has returned to 0, open the canner and remove the hot jars with a jar lifter.
Place them on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels away from drafts.
After the jars cool completely, test the seals.
If you find jars that haven't sealed, immediately refrigerate them and use them within one week.
Boil the contents of each jar for 10 minutes before tasting or eating.

So there was I, driving the kid to her little school this morning, listening to Steve Inskeep trying to squeeze some logic out of Saxby Chambliss. They got to the topic of tax rates. As you know, getting the media, especially prominent types like Inskeep, to understand and speak accurately about marginal tax rates is one of my crusades.
My heart soared like an eagle when I heard Inskeep press Chambliss on marginality and how an increase of 3.6 percent only on taxable dollars earned above $250,000 would affect the GOP's beloved small businessman:
Inskeep: If somebody is making 300, 400 thousand a year in a small business, and the marginal tax rate, the taxes on the upper part of their income, goes up a point or two points or three points, they're paying more in taxes but not a lot more…
[There's no transcript yet, and I noted verbatim only Inskeep's remarks, but Chambliss tried to argue that this small increase might make the difference between this business owner hiring one person or two people.]
Inskeep: ..Somebody's making 300 or 400 thousand a year, and taxes are raised by a couple of percentage points on the upper part of his income--not his entire income, but the upper part of his income--and he's paying an extra couple thousand bucks, that's gonna stop him from hiring someone?
To this, Chambliss had no real answer, falling back on the talking points about taxes and growth. Because there is no answer. Let's just quickly do the math. If this businessman has a taxable income of $350,000, he's going to pay under Obama's plan an extra 3.6 percent on his last $100,000 dollars earned (the dollars above $250,000), or $3,600. He's not paying his employees much if that's gonna make the difference between him hiring one or two people.
Anyway, well done Inskeep. He didn't quite use my preferred formulation that journalists speak of proposed increases on "dollars earned" rather than on people or households, but he got the point across. Would that everyone follow his example. (Although, good sir, if you're reading this, you slightly mispronounced my name on the air a few weeks ago. Tomasky rhymes with pass key. Or Victor Navasky. It's not To-mahs-sky, which strikes me as sort of Russified. But no big deal and thanks for the mention.)

Christina Applegate Weds Martyn LeNoble
(LOS ANGELES) -- Christina Applegate has wed musician and composer Martyn LeNoble in a private ceremony.
US Weekly reports that the pair tied the knot after three years of engagement -- Applegate and LeNoble got engaged on Valentine's Day in 2010 -- though they've been together five years in all. They also share a 2-year-old daughter Sadie Grace, who was born January 2011.
Applegate, 41, credits LeNoble, 43, one of the founding members of the rock band Porno for Pyros, for helping her get through her breast cancer battle. She was diagnosed in 2008 and the same year underwent a double mastectomy. "I have a small but mighty support system and Martyn has really been an incredible part of my life," the Anchorman actress told the magazine in 2010. "Without him, I don't know if I could've gone through any of it. He came around at a time when there was a lot of loss in my life on many levels, so he's been a really incredible help."
This is the second marriage for both. Applegate's was previously married to actor Johnathon Schaech for six years.

The pool reporter was impressed with what Parker had done with the place: There was "ample" art on the walls, floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a pair of marble fireplaces. The fireplace mantels were adorned with flowers, and so were the tables, which also had votives — Wintour's touches, perhaps.Ample art — can't we get a better description? I can't picture anything. Ample? I'm picturing this.
Some Occupy-type protesters were down the street, on the other side of a a police barricade. One of them said, "It's not a fund-raiser; it's just trying to get famous people to amplify him."
Ample... amplify.... Damn. I've go the set-up for I joke, but I just can't find it.

ulcers from using listerine (mouthwash)?71 messages in this subject.
|Just started using the Listerine Whitening twice a day like my dentist recommended and now I have two ulcers on my gums. That stuff burns like crazy. First time I used it, it made my eyes water. When I got the ulcer I thought I had eaten something to cause it until I got a second one. Now that I have read this it makes sense. Now I need something to get rid of the ulcers. Orajel hopefully will do the trick.
|Sheila August 14 14 August 19
|I have been listed one for a couple of weeks. I have noticed pain in my tongue, gums and throat. I stopped using it yesterday and went back to crest which I used everyday for years, until I decided to give luster one a shot. I woke up today feeling so much better. I was getting really concerned having this pain in my mouth everyday. I googled to see if anyone else is experiencing same symptoms and I see I am not alone. I am throwing it away immediately
|Sassy 6 August 19
|I used Listerine whitening mouthwash for about a week before burns, blisters, and ulcers filled my mouth. At first I believed that the burns were probably from eating hot foods and would go away eventually. As I continued to use the mouthwash two times a day as recommended, each day I would have more ulcers and blisters. Finally I researched the idea of the mouthwash causing the symptoms, sure enough I was right. The pain was under my tongue and all around my mouth which was irritated, red and white. Listerine should really do something about their product before the company capsizes from a selling a harmful product without the proper warning.
|V for Vendetta 1 June 19
|Listerine causes dry mouth, which by extension can cause sores. If you use it nightly go without it for a few weeks or months and see if they go away.
|Chris 29 May 19
|The dentist can give you a paste to put on it. I coates it to keep you from hitting it and feeling pain each time something touches it. The paste is called Triamcinolone Acetonide dental paste I also found that I was having a reaction to listerine
|Meme 18 October 18
|I went to the hospital turns out Listerine caused 3rd degree chemical burns in my mouth im getting a laywer they shouldnt be selling this stuff!!
|Brittianie 24 13 October 18
|Never used to use mouthwash, never used to get ulcers/canker sores, started using the white listerine and now my mouth gets HUGE ulcers around the inside of my lips and under my tongue so painful I cant talk or eat. At least 10 appear at a time and dont go away or get any better for weeks at a time.
|Ethan 29 September 18
|Ughh..been getting sore mouth and ulcers the past 3 weeks, finally linked it to a new bottle (yellow original) of Listerine. This is truly horrible.
|David 7 September 18
|Wow...I thought I had something seriously wrong until I looked this issue up. My mouth is all kinds if inflamed from the whitening Listerine in the white-opaque bottle. Tossing it out right away. I was using the regular stuff for years with no problem...then suddenly things went badly. Listerine should have done more testing on this one.
|Double E 21 June 18
|Sodium Lauryl sulfate in the mouthwash and toothpaste causes cankers
|Pat 22 May 18
|I Used the Green Listerine and the day after mouth was full of ulcers,I didnt put two and two together so kept using it for a few days, more and more ulcers kept appearing. Stopped using it and now they are healing (with the help of lots of bonjela). I have used the purple listerine and never had this problem. You do get a burn from listerine but the ulcers were something i have never had from using it before. They were lots of them! Do not touch the green listerine!
|Rhys 1 May 18
|Just been to the doctor.Thought I had a sinus infection.sore face,forehead gums,tongue,roof of mouth even sucking in cool air hurts.Red patches at back of mouth which feels constantly hot and swollen jaw.You guessed it been using Listerine for healthier gums.Causes more problems if you ask me.Gonna try the salt water.
|jane aberdeen 14 April 18
|I was never one to get canker sores. I started using Colgate whitening toothpaste and Total Care Listerine and now my bottom lip has sores. The orthodontist told me to stop with whitening toothpaste. He said it can make the gums receed. Dentist told me to not use listerine. It is too harsh.
|Linda369 9 March 18
|Used Listerine the other day... I can't open my mout now, Having a mild fever, Swollen left cheek and excessive pain. Also unable to eat any solids.
|Manga 28 January 18
|Just had the same thing happened. Rinsed with Listerine and the next day woke up with a mouthful on canker sores!!!
|Christina 2 January 18
|anybody got like cuts and chopping of the tongue itself, from the bottom side of the tongue?
|Sherif 11 November 17
|I have been using Listerine for about a fortnight perhaps slightly excessively as I thought it may act as a cleaning agent for my teeth during the day. I'm a smoker. Also I'd heard that it could numb the pain of tooth ache. Unfortunately I've started to develop mouth ulcers which are incredibly painful and uncomfortable. I'm now wondering if these could be related.
|Chris 5 November 17
|I've been using listerene total care to ease a tooth ache an I've use 2 1\2 bottles in two days..I've been rinseing 25 to 30 times a day but in verey small amounts how likely is it that'll i ll get cancer from it
|Redbone 22 July 17
|I used Listerine 2x's for 30 seconds each yesterday and it stung. Had to flush mouth with water right after using it both times. This morning I woke up to the awful taste of blood in my mouth and it was dark in color and got about a teaspoon on my sheets. Went to sink and spit and it was black in color and as I flushed the dark stuff with water from the sink and it turned red. Today I have a few sores in my mouth. They are dark purple and they are on my left cheek. they are not bleeding but are painful and I am worried that I will awaken to more dark blood in my mouth this evening or in the morning. Worried. Stopped listerine and am now using salt rinse. SHOULD I seek medical advice? Please advise. Thanks very much.
|Carolyn 20 June 17
|I used the Listerine Total I believe it made me get sores on my gums but I think I used it to much more then 2 times a day. I am seeing this I believe because I never used the mouthwash plus I did not use after brush but before. I think it dried my lips inside tomorrow need go to dentist been years.
|Jesse 28 February 17
|Listerine should come with a HUGE warning label: Likely to cause excruciating mouth ulcers. Why this product is still on the shelf is amazing. I used Listerine and started getting ulcers on my tongue, especially the bottom of my tongue where the Listerine was in greater contact during the swishing (a puddle basically remained constant on the bottom of my mouth). At first I didnʻt connect the problem to the Listerine, thinking it might have been some hot food that I ate a few days before, but that didnʻt make sense. So naively I was rinsing further with the Listerine as some websites suggest you should keep the sores clean and that Listerine would be a good antiseptic for that purpose. Now that the Listerine has exacerbated the problem, I'm certain it was the initial cause. NEVER AGAIN. I'm throwing the bottle away.
|Carol 19 February 17
|I used listerin total care the purple one. It burned my bottom gums with ulcers. It has been about 5 days and I still cannot eat or drink anything without excruciating pain. I can't open my mouth wide enough and I bleed when I just brush my teeth . It's the holidays and I have to wait until it's over. My lower jaw is totally swollen and have been feeling dizzy lately. I noticed that sucrets lonsenges helps numb the pain. I am now starting to get pain to my jaw bones which worries me. So I bought the sucrets spray to try to heal the ulcers. I've noticed if I applied ice packs for my jaw seems to help temporarily.
|Ada 24 December 16
|I used Colgate mouthwash and after one week there were ulcers on my tongue...staying away from all types of mouthwashes now. Maybe salt water is a better alternative.
|lily 19 September 16
|I used listerine pocketmist twice and got sores in my mouth.
It's very strong and impossible to dilute. The spray is such a small amount you can't hardly feel it hitting the inside of your mouth. But wow is it strong!
|Deb 15 May 16
|It's any product with whitening properties and bleaching agents. Some of us can't take it. I saw a doc last night as my tongue started to feel like it was burning, like it does when you drink something too hot, and from the back and down my throat it felt dry and irritated and it was coated. But last night, the front part of my tongue had a tingling feeling and was sensitive. She looked up the label and was sure it was the Listerine Total Care my dentist had me swish with a week ago at my appt. She said the reaction can take days to happen. I felt like that was a stretch but she was sure of it when she saw whitening agents in the ingredients and hydrogen peroxide which is a bleaching agent and she wasn't thrilled about the sodium laurel stearate either, which has been a controversial ingredient in many things. She said to tell the dentist NO THANKS! I was prescribed a rinse to use to ease the discomfort.
|Lesley 11 May 16
|I have tried to use the new Listerene Whitening Mouthwash (bottle with all the red lips on it). I can't. It really felt like I was rinsing my mouth with paint stripper. I am in awe of these people that seem to have iron cast mouths that can rinse with anything. It left my lips, tongue and gums with what looked like
blister burns. I have even tried watering it down, but after a couple of days my mouth and tongue are so sore from erupting ulcers, I have to stop. Surely rinsing with mouthwash should not be this difficult or painful. I have found one that I like and it feels smooth and nice in my mouth. Dentyl.
|Lisa 18 April 16
|I have used Act Restoring mouthwash for 5 days and masses of ulcers have developed in my mouth and on my tongue. Listerine did this 2 years ago. I will not use anything except warm salt water from now on...this is miserable!!!
|Betty 16 April 16
|I was taking Malarone anti-malaria pills on holiday and my bottom lip swelled up for a few days - I looked like a duck. My inside lip was completely dry and grey inside and painful to smile or eat as it was so cracked. Assumed it was Malarone but now reading this, I had been taking non-alcoholic Listerine every day whilst on holiday and seems it could be this and not the Malarone. I did actually stop the listerine when it happened but still didnt know which it was. Has anyone else had this. Thank u.
|Yasmine 5 February 16
|Ellie - Gengigel Rinse would be my top recommend for what you describe. As far as I know it is readily available, or by mail-order from the shop.
|Dom Walton 2 February 16
|does anybody know what mouthwash u can use for sensitive gums? they told me in er I had ginvigitis my gums look so much better since I salt water gargel and rinse with the salt too Ellie
|Ellie 1 February 16
|Cant. Belive some of you think even 1% of Listerine user get ulcers from it
|Bob 31 January 16
|I have been using listerine for a while now, i got 2 white bumps yesterday,my dentist told me not to use listerine and gargle with salt water.
|Ellie 30 January 16
|Im using superdrug pro 6 in 1 mouthwash and its a strong taste. After using it I noticed some small white patches at the back near where my wisdom teeth should be and its sooo sore. Any advice anyone?
|toni 19 January 16
|I used a off brand for Listerine Total Care Mouth Wash for two days. I rinsed for a little over 1 min the second day! Completely burned my entire mouth! I ended up with many small painful white soars over my soft tissues of my mouth! My entire mouth was extremely soar and raw! I developed large painful blister like ulcer on the underside of my lips that made it hard for me to smile or make facial expressions! My lips and the inside of my mouth itch! And my bottom lip swoll up, looking a bit like a stuffed sausage! Still no real relief after 2 days!
|April Porter Indiana 11/06/15 7 November 15
|Interesting to see so many people suffering from this. Listerine causes really painful ulcers every time I use it. I never put the two together until recently
|Bill 6 October 15
|Hi, I used Colgate total white toothpaste which contains SLS and had really bad ulcers for about a month, I struggled to eat and drink.
Avoid at all costs, horrible stuff, should be banned.
|Paul 5 October 15
|Donna, try a Chlorhexidine mouthwash, I personally had bad experiences with Listerine as well...
|Rob 30 September 15
|Wow this is Krazy. I have been using this stuff for over a month now. First I thought I had a cold throat killing me, that's went away a little bit,but the inside of my mouth behind my lips have been killing me for over 3 weeks now. I have cracked lips the sides of my mouth are cracked. Just tonight me and my daughter went out to dinner and out of nowhere she says I can't eat my soup I have little blisters in my mouth,then she says I wonder if it could be the toothpaste or that mouth wash I've been using everyday like me. It has to be that listerine. I've stopped using it as of 3 nights ago but my mouth is still killing me. This stuff is like poison if it's doing this to everyone. It has to be the problem,god I hope my mouth gets back to normal.
|Donna 30 September 15
|i heard listerine works best watered down but it still burns when i use it.
|Sasha 21 August 15
|Listerine Total Care (the purple one) has Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (LSL) which has been known to cause canker sores. I just figured this out and will have to use a different listerine variety now.
|Finally Looked it Up 7 August 15
|Yes I have a very sore mouth after using Listerine last night. I thought the burning sensation as it was in my mouth was killing germs, but in reality it was causing burns inside my mouth! I sure hope I'll be back to normal in a few day. I find it difficult to eat also.
|Elaine 27 July 15
|hi there i used listerine a week ago and my mouth is still so sore, my left jaw looks swollen and my tongue is numb this product is a disgrace. Ill never use it again. I cant taste anything, my mouth was fine before i used it.
|mary 2015 11 July 15

|Amanda 7 July 15

|mike 6 June 15
|I have little red spots from its burn , I haven't bought it for no reason my Dr told me to use it because of my skin was kinda going white inside my mouth
|mike 6 June 15
|I am the one who loves the strong burning sensation of TOTAL CARE LISTERINE.....but I am pretty sure it is making me prone to mouth ulcers....the abrasive sensation should have been a clue...LISTERINE JUNKIE NEEDS TO GO COLD TURKEY BUT I CANNOT THROW AWAY THE BOTTLE
|JC 16 May 15
|I used Listerine 3 times and now I have little white spots on the inside of my bottom lip,
with a raw, burning sensation. Should be taken off the the market!!!
|Gaines Stefanie 6 March 15
|I changed from listerene to Crest Pro Health Complete Rinse , and found out I was allergic to it.(that is what my dentist says)
It started the next day, and 4 days after I used it, my mouth is still hurting, it attacked the inside wall of my mouth and gums,tongue,and underneath my tongue it is swollen and very sore.
The roof is ok, but never again will I use this mouthwash .
Back to listerine.
|Steve ,February 19, 2015 19 February 15

|k nagesh 10 August 14

|MarkH 4 June 14
|I have blisters on my tongue and smaller blisters inside my mouth since I started to use Listerine Total Care 3 weeks ago. Initially when I started to use it I found it very very strong but just about tolerable. The blisters are really sore, came up 2 days ago and not getting better. Have stopped using Listerine; obviously! because if I did my mouth would be like a volcano. Sean, Ireland.
|Sean 1 June 14
|My tongue is burning since I used it. It should have a warning on it. I'm surprised that people actually use it.
|harjeet 1 May 14
|Yes. Used listerine mouthwash just once and got ulcers on end of my tongue. Giving a dry but burning sensation. Won't be using again after reading all these comments. Should have warning on the bottle !!
|Juniper 28 March 14
|Glad to know I'm not the only one. My mouth is burning and I'm in pain since using Listerine Total Care. I feel stupid because I bought a huge 3-pack at Sam's Club! I'll rinse with ward afterwards instead of allowing it to be the final rinse.
|JaneInPain:( 25 January 14
|Yes, mouth ulcers from Listerine Total Care. Used it twice, second time being 5 days ago and still have the blisters at the bottom of my gums. Used peroxide as a rinse today and it seems to have helped.

Just Label It: Let Us Know It's GMO
A tomato with the DNA of a fish, one fish with genes of another, corn that produces its own pesticide—and nothing to say they're any different than the tomatoes, salmon, and corn people have been eating for centuries.
Unlike many developed countries worldwide—such as China, Japan, Australia, and all the members of the EU—there is no law in the United States requiring food manufacturers to label their products as containing Genetically Engineered (GE) or Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs).
A new campaign by the organization Just Label It seeks to push the FDA to start requiring GMOs be listed on food labels—a move that 93 percent of Americans support. The project has generated 600,000 comments so far. It's a simple request, Mark Bittman explains:
Even more than questionable approvals, it's the unwillingness to label these products as such — even the G.E. salmon will be sold without distinction — that is demeaning and undemocratic, and the real reason is clear: producers and producer-friendly agencies correctly suspect that consumers will steer clear of G.E. products if they can identify them. Which may make them unprofitable. Where is the free market when we need it?
April Dávila wondered what it would take to cut the GMO giant out of her family's life. She found that it was far more entrenched than she'd ever realized.
A coalition of peasant farmers is standing up for food sovereignty.

There were a lot of complaints that this year's NBA Draft was short on future star players, but that doesn't mean it is short on storylines. Brandon Jennings, selected 10th by the Milwaukee Bucks, has enough of them going on to make a whole book on his own.
He skipped college to play pro in Rome for a year, which will make him a test case for future high schoolers who don't want to submit to the whims of the NCAA before David Stern deigns to allow them to make a living playing basketball. If he flops, colleges will be happy, but if he's good right out of the gate, you'll probably see more European vacations being scheduled.
So the basketball establishment is rooting against him, what about his fellow players?
He slammed Ricky Rubio, who went fifth to Minnesota. That creates a natural rivalry between the two rookie point guards playing in the upper Midwest, assuming Rubio ever actually plays for the Timberwolves, and a natural interest to see which one of them winds up being the better NBA player.
He's not stopping at Rubio either. Black Sports Online has video of an interview that Jennings did with rapper Joe Budden (which is extremely not safe for work as it is riddled with both profanities and racially volitile terms), and you can read an asterisk-heavy transcription at The Baseline. Over the course of the interview, he slams Rubio some more and then sets the Bucks depth chart at point guard with him on top and Ramon Sessions looking for work with another team. He then slams the Knicks, particularly point guard Chris Duhon, Jay Bilas and just about anything else that comes up for discussion.
Jennings certainly knows how to grab attention, doesn't he? He even made the most memorable draft entrance since Priest Lauderdale climbed out of the stands to terrify/greet David Stern in 1996. The challenge now is to make attention for your play, rather than for your mouth. If he can't do that, he'll be remembered as an even bigger bust because of all the checks he's writing before stepping on the court for the first time.
Someone's talking to him about the mouth, as evidenced by the disappearance of his Twitter page, but there's not much you can do about being 19 and full of confidence. This probably won't be the last we hear of Jennings.
