Q: How do I compare "servings per can or pail" to product weight and calories?
A: The truth is you cannot. Serving sizes and number of servings per can are set with respect to government guidelines on food nutrition and recipe requirements for each product. You will find some recipe creations may require multiple servings of specific products to create the recipe. When reviewing food storage kits, a good comparison is based upon number of persons, calories per day, length of time and calculating the total number of meals possible. For example: 1-Person, 1-Year (3 meals per day, 365 days = 1,095 total meals), 1,700 calories per day. Your decision should be based upon average calories per day per person and not the total serving count.
Q: Once I open the product, how long do I have to use the product?
A: Shelf life varies by product and is affected by temperature and moisture. Once the can/pail is opened, the storage life for most products is approximately one year.
Beans, Freeze Dried Fruits and Vegetables: 30 years
Grains: 30 years (Exception – Brown Rice: 7 years)
Bakery Staples: 30 years (Exception – Shortening Powder, Flour, Vital Wheat Gluten, Dough Enhancer: 10 years)
Dehydrated Fruits and Vegetables: 25 years (Exception – Banana Slices, Potato Gems: 10 years)
Freeze Dried Meats and Entrées: 25 years sealed - 1 month opened
Delight Drinks: 15 years
Vegetarian Meat Substitutes, Cereals, Bakery Mixes, Eggs & Dairy: 10 years (Exception –
Morning Moo's: 25 years, Chocolate Morning Moo's: 15 years)
Soups and Sauces: 10 years (Exception – Vegetable Stew Blend, Hearty Vegetable Chicken or Beef Soup Mix: 25 years)
Q: How will my product be shipped?
A: Most items are shipped by small parcel carriers like FedEx. The larger kits will arrive in multiple boxes from a single carrier.
Q: What do the numbers mean that are marked on my Food Storage Kit Boxes?
A: To facilitate fulfillment of your order, all kit boxes are pre-assembled with specific products, then pulled from inventory to assemble your order. Numbers on the boxes may not be in sequential order. Pail items will be shipped in separate cases.
Q: Why when I open the cans/pails, are some only partially filled?
A: With some products, settling occurs and is expected. Cans/pails are sold by weight and not by volume for that reason.
Q: Where should I store my product?
A: Product is best when stored in a cool, dry place at temperatures between 55˚F and 70˚F (ideal humidity 15%). Heat shortens the storage life of any food – the cooler the storage, the longer the storage life. Once product is open, please ensure the lid is secure when storing and use within the guidelines.
Q: If a can gets dented, does it affect the quality of the product?
Dents should not occur from shipping in pails. You may however, see indentations in the pail from air pressure changes in shipping. This will not harm the product inside and should straighten out over a short period of time.
Q: Are the cans/pails marked with "use by" dates?
A: Cans/pails are marked with a production date called a Julian date. For example, 16022 means the can was produced in 2016 on the 22nd day (January 22). Each can is also marked with the expected storage life.

The Audi RS 4 was in production from 2000 until 2001, and again from 2006 through 2008, offering three models with varied options. The Audi RS 4 models boasted the impressive quattro all-wheel-drive system that is revered by automotive lovers for its traction capability.
A subsidiary of the German Volkswagen AG, Audi has long been marketed as a premium brand. With the Audi RS 4, the luxury-car manufacturer was able to corner a distinct market looking for tremendous V-8 power within an automobile of modest size.
The Audi RS 4, introduced in 2000, was known as the B5 Audi RS 4 Avant quattro, which Audi released just over 6,000 units during the RS 4's two years of production. In 2006, Audi released its newest RS 4, known as the B7 Audi RS 4 quattro, which offered two body styles for drivers to choose from. In 2008, a third body style, cabriolet or convertible, was introduced.
The Audi RS 4 is typically known for its incredible power within an executive--or full-size luxury--sedan, or sport sedan. However, when introduced as the Audi RS 4 Avant (2000–2001), the five-door estate wagon offered a hauling capability to the individual who desired sport performance and the ability to transport the family. Ultimately, the introduction of the Audi RS 4 provided impressive automotive performance with body versatility.
As the Audi RS 4 models progressed from 2006 to 2008, so did the power, options, and body styles. Possessing Audi's V-8 engine and quattro technology, the 2008 RS 4 had the capability to pump out 420 horsepower straight from the factory—keeping pace with competitors Mercedes-Benz and BMW. Add quattro--which is widely considered the most impressive four-wheel–drive system in a passenger vehicle--and the RS 4 became an instant driving desire.
Audi introduced the Audi RS 4 to the intrigued American market in 2006. For drivers desiring another auattro option from the popular German manufacturer, this became a sought-after ride. In 2006, Audi offered two versions of the B7 RS 4 auattro, including the five-door Avant estate wagon and the four-door sedan. In 2008, Audi presented drivers with two options: the four-door sedan and the rare cabriolet convertible.
The 2008 B7 Audi RS 4 was capable of attracting style seekers as well as performance purists, luring many curious drivers to compare Audi offerings to the BMW M3 and Mercedes-Benz AMG vehicles.
The exterior of the 2008 Audi RS 4 Quattro is cut to display beautiful aesthetic contours that are synonymous with the premium automotive brand. The seven exterior paint options, ranging from Silver to Misano Red, allow for choices between simplicity and flashiness. The rear spoiler adds an additional element of sport aesthetics as well as function to the Audi RS 4.
The Audi RS 4 interior offers room for five small to medium-sized adults and is capable of transporting a family of four or five safely. There are multiple interior options to choose from, including three color combinations, one of which offers a complementary trim. The single drawback of the Audi RS 4's interior is the rear seating area, which is considered small and lacking in legroom. Some impressive safety features on the Audi RS 4 include side- and rear-curtain airbags, as well as standard four-wheel ABS, stability control, and traction control.
The Audi RS 4's six-speed manual transmission offers more control over the 420 horsepower vehicle, especially when considering the quattro all-wheel design. The performance capability extends to the 19-inch alloy rims and the mounted 255/35R low-profile, high-performance tires. Chosen for performance over economy, the 2008 Audi RS 4 presents drivers with an average of 13/20 MPG city/highway. Offered in good to pristine condition, a used 2008 Audi RS 4 Quattro sedan will run between $35,000 and $39,000.
Boasting many of the same power options and exterior color options as the sedan, the 2008 Audi RS 4 Quattro Cabriolet convertible has the obvious difference of being a softtop with seating for four. Gas mileage is also tested at 12/19 MPG city/highway. A quality car of this type will range from $48,000 to $50,000.
The previous versions of the Audi RS 4 presented similar body styling, and from 2007 through 2008, an interior trim option served as the only difference between the sedans. The 2008 Cabriolet served as only a single year production model, making it rare, more popular, and significantly more expensive than other models.
The original versions of the Audi B5 RS 4 Avant are still seen most frequently on the highways of Germany; the popular RS, or "RennSport", translates to "Racing Sport". This B series from Volkswagen AG continues to serve as the premium sport offering within the Audi A4 line.
2008 Audi RS 4
Convertible, Luxury, Sedan, Sports
The 2008 Audi RS 4 costs much less than the Audi R8, but it has all the performance of a high-end sports car.
2007 Audi RS 4
Luxury, Sedan
The 2007 Audi RS 4 sedan offers an impressive amount of power that can move its heavy chassis at high speeds.

Sycip Hardtail Mountain Bike
It's been a minute since I've posted a beautiful bicycle…my apologies. With my new gig (skateboarding all day), my internet surfing has really taken a downward spiral. I simply haven't had quite as much time to drool over pretty bikes all day.
Anyway, this Sycip from Alan Tansey is beautiful. There really is nothing like a 1×9 steel hardtail mountain bike. Check out some more of Alan's shots on his Flickr. The paintjob reminds me of an old-school Bianchi Grizzly…so rad.

Played Olathe last weekend, or rather, it played me. The wind was brutal, but the terrible score was mostly attributable to operator error. Could I put in a recommendation for not placing the basket for 16 to the left, near the baseball diamond? My tee shot went into the thorn bushes, and I received several gouges trying to retrieve my wayward disc. My suggestion is that until the brush is cleared, the basket should be kept in the placement further west, which I think would help most throwers avoid this hazard. I could be available to help clear this stuff, depending on the day.

Manchester based fashion designer Nadine Merabi has launched her debut collection for new fashion brand Ono Uno.
The star studded event took place in boutique bowling alley All Star Lanes, and saw stunning models in smouldering smokey eye make-up and modern beehives, strutting down the bowling alleys, to music by Kasabian, The Gossip and Goldfrapp.
Stars including Made In Chelsea's Jamie Laing, Coronation Street actress Brooke Vincent, Debbie Rush, The Fall actress Karen Hassan and former Commonwealth medal winner Diane Modahl attended the launch.
"I am so happy to have launched Ono Uno in such a unique way. I haven't ever heard of a fashion show in a bowling alley before and like to try and do things a little bit outside the box," said Nadine, who has dressed some of the UK's most beautiful TV actresses such as Michelle Keegan, Catherine Tyldsley, Roxanne Pallett, Brooke Vincent, Georgia May Foote and Michelle Collins.
"My signature style is the 'wow' dress. It is all in the simplicity of the cut and shaping the silhouette of a woman. I like to make my designs timeless and elegant, with middle eastern influences staying strong throughout.
"The theme for the collection is Black Widow , very seductive, sexy and dark. I used deep and rich colours and fabric in jet blacks, deep blues, vivid green and glittering gold, incorporating a mixture of textures and trimmings.
"The pieces are made of leather, mesh, lace, mixed with flutters of feathers, enchanting shimmery and beautiful, heavy embellishment."
The 'Black Widow' collection will be available in Selfridges and Selfridges Online, Ono Uno Website and in select nationwide boutiques from October 28th.

Spring is in the air in California. While the Sierra Nevada gets a late spring snowstorm, the California golden poppies have opened along I-5. Spring is a time of transition from one season to the next, and also a time when high school seniors eagerly await that wonderful transition from high school drama to college coolness. At this time of year particularly, seniors await acceptance letters from their favorite college or university. But once the letters arrive, how is a high school senior going to choose his or her school? If the decision has anything to do with free speech policies on campus, it may be wrought with confusion, especially for students considering California schools.
California's public colleges and universities, it seems, have no institutional respect for freedom of speech on campus. A series of contradictory policy decisions have made the Golden State's higher education system a mess when it comes to freedom of speech.
Take last week, for example. On Friday, FIRE's Samantha Harris wrote about the great news at San Francisco State University. SFSU repealed its illegal speech zone policy and now allows literature distribution in the outdoor areas of campus so long as pedestrian traffic is not impeded. Even better, SFSU removed the official free speech zones so that students can now engage in speech in most outdoor areas. But down the street, the University of California Hastings College of the Law continues to enforce its "nondiscrimination" policy against the Christian Legal Society, banning it from campus.
On Tuesday, I wrote that the University of California system is considering a new speech code that will give administrators great ability to censor disfavored student speech. This comes on the heels of the UC system amending its harassment policy to protect student speech. But at the same time, the Los Angeles Community College District, the largest community college district in the United States, fights to keep an even more speech-restrictive harassment policy.
To top it off, we have good information that several California State University system campuses still maintain an unconstitutional speech code that was struck down and amended two years ago.
For a state that supposedly accords broad protection to student speech and that has one of the best public higher education systems in the country, California's public colleges and universities remain behind the curve on free speech issues. The Golden State can do better.

With the S&P 500 finishing about where it started, 2011 was a tough year in the market and it won't be the last, especially if the consensus forecasts come true for 2012 being a year of continued slow economic growth and volatile markets.
Years like these can make it difficult for financial advisors who focus only on investment returns. It's true that advisors still provide a lot of value, especially in helping clients stick to their asset allocations through all the ups and downs of the markets, but clients don't always view things that way. They want to see that their advisors are consistently providing value on a range of issues.
One opportunity to provide that value and differentiate yourself from the competition is with a topic on many Americans' minds this time of year: taxes. As W-2s and 1099s hit their mailboxes, they'll be hearing many promises from the presidential candidates about their plans to reduce taxes. But let's be realistic. Given all the gridlock in Washington and the growing budget deficits and shortfalls in Social Security and Medicare, how many of us really believe that taxes will continue to go down from their already historic lows?
While the politicians may not be able to do much, financial advisors are in a great position to deliver a tangible tax cut their clients can believe in. Consider these eight ways to help your clients trim their tax burden:
Reminder #1: Retirement plan contribution limits are increasing this year.
Many people who think they're maxing out their retirement plan contributions are using limits from five or even 10 years ago. That's because while people will often look at their investment allocation, they may not revisit their contribution election, especially if they think they're already maxed out. Remind your clients that they can now contribute up to $17,000 per year (or $22,500 for those 50 or older) to retirement accounts like 401(k)s, 403(b)s, and the federal government's TSP. That extra $500 a year of course would grow to almost $25k in 20 years at an 8% average annual return. The additional savings may not be hugely significant but it could mean your clients get some extra cash to kick off retirement with a nice vacation.
Reminder #2: HSA limits are going up.
Retirement plans aren't the only ones with higher contribution limits. Health savings accounts are getting in on the fun as well. If you have clients with high deductible health insurance policies, make sure they're taking full advantage of the unique benefits of these accounts. I don't know any other accounts in which you can make both pre-tax contributions and tax-free withdrawals. The contributions can even escape FICA taxation if they're part of a Section 125 cafeteria plan. This means a client can save by contributing the full $3,100 for single coverage or $6,250 for family coverage to an HSA this year and spending it on qualified medical expenses. Finally, keep in mind that if your clients don't need the money for healthcare expenses, they can invest the accounts in mutual funds and make penalty-free (but not tax-free) withdrawals for any other purpose after age 65.
Reminder #3: More people are eligible for 2012 IRA contributions.
While the IRA contribution limits aren't increasing, the income limits to contribute to a deductible or a Roth IRA are. That means you may have clients who can now take advantage of these accounts for an immediate tax break or tax-free income in the future. Either way, it's more money in their pocket.
Reminder #4: Clients can still undo last year's Roth conversions.
With all the volatility in the markets last year, you may have some clients who paid taxes to convert some traditional IRAs to Roths only to see their account values plummet afterwards. Remind them that they have until Oct 15th to re-characterize those conversions, which is basically a fancy way of asking for a do-over. This allows them to avoid paying taxes on money they no longer have. The only downside is that they have to wait until next year if they want to do a re-conversion back to a Roth IRA.
Reminder #5: Consider Roth conversions.
On the other hand, you may also have clients with traditional IRAs that are down in value (especially if the Mayan calendar ends up being right about 2012!). In that case, it could be a great time to convert those IRAs to Roths. First, they'll pay relatively low tax rates (remember, tax rates are still scheduled to increase next year) on relatively low account values. Then, when the account eventually recovers, all that growth can potentially dodge whatever tax rates the federal government has in store for us at that time (when millions of Baby Boomers become eligible for Social Security and Medicare). In fact, Roth IRAs can be a good idea for any client worried about the prospect of higher future tax rates.
Reminder #6: Look out for company stock before rolling over retirement assets.
Speaking of 401(k) rollovers, advisers will sometimes roll over entire accounts as cash without even looking at what's in them. If your clients have company stock, they would lose the ability to have the net unrealized appreciation taxed at a lower capital gains rate.
Reminder #7: Tax optimize your clients' investment portfolios.
If something needs to be exposed to taxation, let it be your clients' equities since most of their earnings are taxed at capital gains and dividend rates that are lower than the ordinary income tax rates at which the pre-tax withdrawals will be taxed. (This is especially true for international equities because your clients also lose the ability to claim the foreign tax credit if they're sheltered in a retirement account.) Having stocks vs. bonds in a $500,000 taxable account with a 2% interest or dividend yield could be a difference of several thousand dollars for your clients.
Reminder #8: Harvest those losses.
Another advantage of having more of the equities in the taxable account(s) is that it provides you the opportunity for tax-loss selling at the end of the year. This is a great way to turn those investment lemons into tax lemonade.
Don't let the reminders end there. At the end of the day, be sure to track how much you're saving clients so you can truly show them the value of your services.
As financial educators at Financial Finesse, we deal with employees whose net worth is much less than those most advisors work with, but when we've tracked this ourselves, we've managed to account for helping employees save tens of thousands of dollars in taxes.
In this economy, reminding clients that you can help them with a broad scope of financial issues that affect every part of their lives can be what sets you apart. It feels pretty good, too.

ETSU goes for its eighth NCAA Tournament berth Saturday
DeLAND, Fla. (April 16, 2010) - For the fourth consecutive season the No. 59 ETSU men's tennis team will head to Championship Saturday after the Bucs opened the 2010 Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament with a 4-1 semifinal win over fourth-seeded Campbell Friday morning at the Mandy Stoll Tennis Center at Stetson University.
ETSU (14-7) quickly got on the board after earning a pair of doubles victories. At the No. 1 position the junior team of Charles Bottoni (Bois Guillaume, France) and Grega Teraz (Mojstrana, Slovenia) breezed past CU's Davy Sum and Dominik Kaniewski, 8-3, while playing at No. 3 senior Daniel Isaza (Medellin, Columbia) and sophomore Robin Akser (Ornskoldsvik, Sweden) rolled past Beto Mondini and Loukas Wallart, 8-5.
After the Bucs took the 1-0 lead Campbell briefly tied the contest after Sum - who was a unanimous First-Team A-Sun selection - defeated Teraz 6-2, 6-1. In fact Friday's No. 1 singles result was the second time the Camel senior dropped the ETSU All-Conference member this spring.
With the match evened Bottoni then put the Bucs back on top with a strong performance against Beto Mondini at No. 3 slot. After cruising in the first set the second-year Buc won his seventh straight match with a 6-2, 6-3 victory over the CU senior.
ETSU then pushed its lead to 3-1 as freshman Juan Ramierz (Asuncion, Paraguay) battled Dominik Kaniewski in the No. 6 singles slot. After the Buc newcomer took an easy first set 6-2, the South American native rolled in the second set 6-4.
Needing only one more win to clinch its fourth straight bid into the finals Daniel Isaza then closed out the Fighting Camels at No. 4 singles. The senior ETSU captain rolled past David Clavera in straight sets 6-2, 6-4.
With today's win ETSU will face the winner of second-seeded Stetson and third-seeded North Florida.
Aached above are post-match quotes from head coach Yaser Zaatini, and Danni Isaza, in addition to the conference photo gallery that feature's action shots from today's contest.

text: It was an eye-opening spring semester for Davidson College students in Sociology 250. As part of the curriculum in the "Inequality in America" class, Assistant Professor Jessica Taft assigned her 15 students to each conduct an extensive interview with one of the 46,000 Charlotte-area people who is unemployed. After conducting and analyzing all the interviews, students compiled their observations on a public web site. Visit: http://prezi.com/0dgmbh4bmzcn/experiences-with-unemployment-in-the-charlotte-… They hope that shedding light on the plight of the unemployed through that site might lead individuals and agencies to greater empathy and help for those without jobs. The site focuses on how unemployed individuals think about their own situation, about employers, about the job search, and about the current state of the local and nationaleconomy. The results were discomforting for students who will soon be entering the job market. "Students were struck by how hard unemployed people were working to find a new job," Taft reported. "Many were well-qualified for work. They attended classes, lined up interviews, networked with colleagues, sent out resumes, and used social networking. Yet they were still unemployed — many after several years." Taft solicited unemployed people to participate in the project through social service organizations like the Ada Jenkins Community Center in Davidson and ProNet in Charlotte. She screened the applications, and selected subjects to reflect a broad range of professional backgrounds and class identities. Subjects were not just construction and food service workers, but also unemployed high-level corporate executives. Taft's students ended up interviewing ten men and five women whose average age was 54. The project gave students practice in qualitative research. They collectively developed interview questions and designed an interview guide. They transcribed their interviews and worked in small groups to identify themes and patterns the interviews revealed. Kelly Wilson '13 interviewed a former corporate CFO who had been jobless for the past three years. They talked for 3-1/2 hours. Wilson said, "He expressed feelings of frustration, and almost disbelief. He has the skills and has been doing everything right in looking for work, but he is still unemployed. It was powerful to sit face to face and hear about his situation. You don't get that impact from a reading." She continued, "He talked a lot about the personal side of it, about the strain it put on his relationship with family members, and about how former friends don't know how to interact with him anymore. There's a stigma that comes with unemployment. People treat them like a pariah, and they feel ashamed. I think many people believe you just have to work hard to get a job, and if you don't have a job it means you're not working hard enough. We think we live in meritocracy and will be rewarded for our effort. But it doesn't always pan out that way." The class turned out to be the favorite ever at Davidson for Rachel Beeton '13, who interviewed a 55-year-old former vice president of an asset management company who was laid off four years ago. He had a master's degree from Columbia University, and used to make $150,000 a year. When Beeton interviewed him, he was living with his parents on food stamps. Beeton was nervous about the interview, and worried about being sensitive to her subject and his situation. "I had no idea what it was like for unemployed people before I took this class," she said. "He completely deserves a job, and is doing all he can to get one. As a college student headed out into the job market in a year, it scared me." Beeton said it was an intense, personal learning experience. "I learned that unemployment isn't necessarily the fault of those who are unemployed. It's not like they have a character defect keeping them from getting work. It put things in perspective for me, and reminded me how big the world is, and how much is happening that we're not seeing. It reinforced the reality of inequality, and how far we have to go to address it." Most of the people interviewed blamed inherent characteristics such as age, race or over-experience for their inability to find work. Many believed that there simply are not enough jobs for the number of people trying to find one. Some said they lacked cultural capital such as an educational degree, social capital such as a network of friends who can help, or enough financial resources to support their job search. Most did not consider their unemployment to be a result of their own faults. They placedblame on the government, the corruption of corporations, the poor state of the economy, and the digital age. The interviewees almost universally expressed bitterness about their treatment as they sought work. "They felt disrespected by employers who laid them off, and by employers they encountered in their job search," said Taft. "They felt unacknowledged in terms of their qualifications and efforts. We heard some heartbreaking stories, and a lot of frustration." Because many feel like politicians and the media treat them as just a number in unemployment reports, they were appreciative of the opportunity to tell their stories to Taft's students. Student Kelly Wilson said the benefit of the project was raising awareness of the plight of the jobless. "I believe that telling the story of these people can break down the stigma around them. Most people don't want to engage them in conversation, but our report on the internet is a way for people to learn the stories of unemployed people in a safe space. I believe the more you learn about people's situation, the more empathetic a person you can be." Members of the class hope that their research will inform the public conversation and civic debate about unemployment, and possibly influence policymakers. Student researcher Rachel Beeton said the class made her think about what she can do to address inequality. "I don't think you could come out of that class and not feel motivated to help solve problems," she said. Davidson is a highly selective independent liberal arts college for 1,900 students located 20 minutes north of Charlotte in Davidson, N.C. Since its establishment in 1837 by Presbyterians, the college has graduated 23 Rhodes Scholars and is consistently regarded as one of the top liberal arts colleges in the country. Through The Davidson Trust, the college became the first liberal arts institution in the nation to replace loans with grants in all financial aid packages, giving all students the opportunity to graduate debt-free. Davidson competes in NCAA athletics at the Division I level, and a longstanding Honor Code is central to student life at the college.

News Limited reporter Alice Coster has been on her own amazing race. Coster jumped at the opportunity to follow The Amazing Race Australia on location and has shared her travel diary.Day 1 midnight - BaliAlready a cameraman has gone missing somewhere from Bali immigration and customs - was last seen by someone in the crew escorted down a long corridor.I can already feel the precious few hours we have for a nap before starting at sparrow's diminishing.Day 26am BaliFinally got my first proper glimpse of the contestants, worked out one of the male surfers is former Miss Universe Erin McNaught's boyfriend and his mate Tyler Atkins was with Paris Hilton. Surfers and female models already flocked together, surprise, surprise.8:25 speed boat to LombokI am finally starting to feel like a normal person after a 22-hour day at the MCG and catching planes.A lot of time is spent in transit, wondering if we will see any of the local culture or tourist spots or just the back of a vehicle with a roaring engine.1pm - Gili IslandsContestants swim for briefcases in the postcard-perfect deserted Gili Islands, where no motorised vehicles are allowed. Models are already imagining what shoots to do for the lad mags when the show finishes. We are not allowed to talk to the contestants during the race, only at pitstops.Overheard one of the models saying she got botox on her forehead so the wrinkles didn't ``bunch up'' on TV.Contestants are counting the money, not very well.I already have a spot for the Big W's from Perth, poor ducks, they are sweating hard and look uncomfortable being carted around on cidomo carts.Day 35:30am LombokA nasty wake-up call and at the airport, again. Just told all flights have been grounded due to volcanic ash, except Garuda. Also informed I keep accidentally getting in shot and not to keep ducking out of the way, but to just act natural and as if I was meant to be there - hello I am in the middle of nowhere and don't really fit in with the scenery.12pm Jakarta (in transit to Singapore)Planes, planes and more planes.The constant to-ing and fro-ing is the most frustrating part of a trip. Bags have gone walkabout. Contestants and production crew in danger of running seriously behind schedule. This is a big deal I am told as we run from terminal to terminal. The Merapi eruption may have thrown a spanner in the works as no airlines will fly to Jakarta - except our scheduled Garuda flight, of course.
VIDEO: Amazing Race premiere
THE Amazing Race contestant Tyler Atkins is battling a serious kidney disease diagnosed after he finished filming the show last year.Atkins, who has dated Paris Hilton, has had four operations on his kidneys with more to come.Doctors discovered something was wrong after he went for a routine check on his back after a surfing mishap late last year.The operation made him re-evaluate his life."It has been a real challenge and it's opened my eyes up," he said. "I'm more aware what I'm putting into my body and what I drink."It's changed my whole perspective on things."One operation Atkins had to have went for nine hours.He had the problem for the past four or five years but it was identified last year after the surfing accident.Atkins is supporting Red Undies Week, which starts today, raising awareness about kidney health.
IT wasn't just frantic running and crazed challenges The Amazing Race Australia teams got up to while cavorting across the globe.It seems there was also a bit of movement under the sheets when the lights and cameras went out.It was always only a matter of time before sparks flew between the male surfers and female models.And since Nathan Joliffe had already nabbed former Miss Universe Australia Erin McNaught, it left single model Tyler Atkins willing and available.Despite his protestations, Atkins has been known around the traps as a serial ladies' man and lists Paris Hilton as a former squeeze.His lothario ways took the fancy of West Australian beach babe Sam Schoers as they raced around the world.Insiders said the two "hooked up" a couple of times, but were keen not to take things too seriously.But sparks were apparently reignited when the teams reunited for Channel 7's big-budget reality adventure series launch in Melbourne this month.And it appears they weren't the only loved-up competitors.Whispers are that after the launch at Essendon Airport, a highly spirited Mel Greig-- from the South Australian sisters' team -- tried to catch the eye of rough-around-the-edges farmer Matt Nunn.But we hear the country boy was not up for the challenge, hotfooting it out of there.The Amazing Race Australia airs tonight at 8.30.
Reality check for relaxed Chris & AnastasiaBy David Knox on May 26, 2011Any good Reality show needs its heroes and villains, somebody for the audience to cheer and hiss. In The Amazing Race its an essential ingredient for the audience.In The Amazing Race Australia, Perths Big W ladies Anne-Marie and Tracy are emerging as early heroes, and if some press is to be believed, Sydney couple Chris and Anastasia are early villains.Under the pressure of the race Chris dropped a remark in Monday nights episode that they dont make women like they used to.The power of editing in such storytelling is enormous, but the US version of the show has been on air for years. Its reasonable to assume you know what youre in for when you apply for the show.As the couple explain to TV Tonight, they arent overly familiar with the original series, but nor are they too fussed by what people think.I havent really watched too many episodes of the US, says Anastasia, 22. I only watched one before the audition for the Australian one.We saw the ad on TV and thought it would be a great adventure. We love adrenalin, so we just thought it would be a lot of fun to do.24 year old Chris concurs: I saw the series back when I was about 14, but not since then.Were not the kind of people to say No, so as soon as something comes up shell ask and Ill agree.On the show with Farmers, Surfers, Models, Workmates and Married Entrepreneurs they are branded as a Dating couple -but it could have been more extreme.A lot of the couples are very diverse. We didnt go into it pretending to be something we werent but at the same time, knowing our background we thought we would be portrayed as the sports couple or token Greek couple, says Anastacia.One team called us Muscles and Bambi and then there was Fabio and the GF (GirlFriend) and the Loved Up couple.Chris is aware his temper may result in him being depicted as one of the shows more fiery contestants. He is already generating passionate feedback in online forums.Its got to make good TV one way or another. At the end of the day whatever was said was said, he says.But were still here, still together, still strong. All is forgiven and it all remains on the Race.My temper always gets the better of me. Its who I am. But it makes me say some things sometimes I dont mean. But Anastasia knowns me a lot better than that.The bottom line is it doesnt really matter what other people think.Neither had seen an episode prior to it airing last week, but Anastasia says while production techniques may be selective, they wont be able to manufacture anything fake. Theyre not going to add anything we havent said. So whatever youve actually said will be on there, she says.The editing process may dramatise things, but at the end of the day its TV, its entertaining.Putting people out of their norm will make good TV, says Chris, so people will have opinions of me and others on the show. But if youre true to yourself and you know who you are then it doesnt really matter if its one little moment or mistake you might have made.Adds Anastasia, We didnt really go on the race to do anything other than have an exciting journey.
24 hours to go! (AEST) Don't forget your first clue to 'The Amazing Online Race' will be released tomorrow!
HOW much are we loving Mo and Mos, people?If you don't know them, Mo and Mos are two of the contestants on the Australian version of The Amazing Race, currently screening on the Seven Network.They're Aussie blokes, both on the largish side, who are really struggling with the physical challenges on the show. These mates are buoyed only by their shared sense of humour, self-deprecating banter, backpacks, and a couple of prayer mats.Yep, they're Muslim, and in perhaps the most positive move for assimilation ever seen on prime-time television, they have done plenty to improve the slightly suspicious relationship that our largely secular population, until now, has had with those who follow the Muslim faith.Yes, you can be Muslim and have a sense of humour - who knew? Jokes aside, if these two don't score jobs as radio hosts after this season finishes, I'll go hee (jab).But The Amazing Race and Masterchef aren't the only reality shows that have entrusted us with a local version.We're about to see our own production of Wife Swap, where two wives from vastly different households are sent to live in each others' home for a couple of weeks.Let me guess; there will be the initial shock of the new living arrangement, followed by inevitable tears, possibly a tantrum or two, then an element of begrudging acceptance, before the follow-up visit a few weeks later, which will show both households are marginally better off for the experience. Predictable? That's why you won't find me, lover of most things reality, tuning in.Sure, I have been a fan of the genre since 1992, when bogan Baby Boomer Noeline Baker burst on to our screens in the ABC-BBC co-production of Sylvania Waters, Australia's first taste of reality TV.But 20 years on, I think I have become slightly more discerning. Only slightly, I am a reality tragic after all. Because even after surviving around 20-something seasons of Survivor; touring the world many times over in The Amazing Race, and thinking, "Even I could do better than that" on Project Runway, I am still strangely compelled to watch almost any group of strangers brought together to complete some kind of task.But when it comes to translating overseas success to local dollars, sometimes more than a change of scenery is required, due to our easy-going natures.Remember the Australian Survivor? Nope, me neither. None of the contestants made much of an impression, because they were too nice. It just wasn't the Aussie way to vocalise your every thought, to bitch and backstab, or to scheme and subvert - intrinsic elements of the game.Our local entrants supported each other, and generally got on like a house on fire, which was good for them, but made for bad TV. Perhaps a good villain is hard to find, so if you are one, let someone know, there's obviously a shortage.So it will be interesting to see how our Aussie wives fare in their swaps. No doubt we'll be confronted with the loudest, most outspoken type of wife to ensure the promised fireworks go off as planned.Polite, accommodating women just won't cut it - not when there are extreme stereotypes to be had. And there are plenty - most reality shows have it down pat.Cast a couple of hot blonde models, hot guys who'll take their shirts off, a fiery-tempered chauvinist, a couple of retirees and a typical Aussie bloke (who will either win, or end up with a role on Neighbors or Home and Away) and you've got something to appeal to most demographics.But while many knock reality TV as a lame-brained exercise, it's not all about vacuous famewhores, as the six Aussies who signed up for the upcoming SBS three-day event (screening from June 21-23) Go Back Where you Came From can probably attest.Chosen from 70 applicants, these average Australians with differing views on the refugee situation get to meet refugees locally, before being sent overseas.Stripped of wallets, phones and passports, life in Iraq and the Congo takes on a whole new meaning for this group of instant Aussie refugees.Sneak previews look fascinating, and set to challenge the entrenched perceptions we have of this difficult and emotive issue. It's an inventive use of the medium, and while I'm all for a bit of harmless competition and tearful send-offs, what's not to like about reality television that educates, informs, and challenges prejudices?Of course, that doesn't mean I'm not hanging out for the next season of The Bachelor, but with Mo and Mos setting female hearts aflutter, maybe it's time for a local version.
Amazing Race contestant Chris Pselletes has revealed that he is "disgusted" with his behavior towards girlfriend Anastasia Drimousis on the show.
We're about to see our own production of Wife Swap, where two wives from vastly different households are sent to live in each others' home for a couple of weeks.
Before they get to Perth, the teams compete in Singapore where Renae is once again forced to confront her crippling fear of heights in a 55-storey tightrope crossing. If she and Sam make it through, it would give them the advantage of racing in their home town in the final.

From The Files Of May 6, 1993
Mack and Norma Jean Leasure were awakened at 2 a.m. on Friday morning at their farm home in
Brush Creek Township by the frantic barking of their dog. Mack got a lantern and followed the dog to a maple tree beside their home along a stream. The dog was barking at the foot of the tree, and Mack heard tree branches rustling and the sound of growling and then he saw the outline of a bear. There in the tree was a large bear and two yearling cubs. They also saw a very large bear running into the woods. Mack went back to bed around 4 o'clock, leaving the bear still in the tree and when he awoke at 6 a.m. and went outside to check the bears, they were still in the tree.

40 Years Ago
From The Files Of May 17, 1973
State police enlisted the aid of McConnellsburg volunteer firemen on Monday in their search for
Richard Wayne Miller, 19, son of Riley Wayne Miller of McConnellsburg, who has been missing since noon last Thursday. Suspicious circumstances surrounding the youth's disappearance led police to organize a thorough search of the area where he was last seen. Police investigations thus far have revealed that Miller was on his way home, driving west on Route 30, at approximately 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, when he observed three men acting suspiciously around a neighbors' white pickup truck, parked facing east near the Patterson Run intersection. Miller turned his car around, went back to investigate and has not been seen since. Positive identification by locals revealed that the men seen near the pickup truck are three of four escapees from Wicomico County Work Camp, Towson, Md., near Baltimore. According to police records, the three are two brothers, Carl Isaacs, 19, and William Newton Isaacs, 15, and George Dungee, 35, all of the Baltimore area. State police reported late Tuesday that the car owned by Miller had been found near Donaldsonville in south Georgia, near the Florida line, at the scene of a mass murder committed some time late Monday or early Tuesday morning. The whereabouts of the Fulton County youth is still unknown.

An interesting article, "An Unknown Soldier," written by Walter R. Sloan, appears in this issue. The first part of the article reads as follows: "In a McConnellsburg graveyard, unrevered and forgotten, lie buried the remains of a hero of the War of 1812-14. In the Presbyterian graveyard is a tombstone with the following inscription: In memory of Gen. John Noble who departed this life May 5, 1842, aged 74 years. Without even a flag as a decoration and with a tombstone, while plainly legible now, is fast deteriorating, he lies in a grave unhonored and unsung. The history of this Gen. John Noble was not known by the present generation until his record was found in the Pennsylvania Archives. He left no descendants that are known to tell future generations of the prominent part he played in the early history of our country." After recounting some of his records, Mr. Sloan ends his article this way: "Now that we really know the story of Gen. John Noble, let us in the future do him the honor of decorating his grave on Memorial Day, which he so richly deserves."
One of the highlights of the McConnellsburg seniors' annual trip to New York this year came when one of their members, Nancy Mentzer, appeared on a quiz show on station WOR. Nancy answered five true or false questions and won $25.

Marguerite "Peg" Styer Williams, 92, passed away peacefully on August 10, 2012. She was born on March 11, 1920 in Norristown, PA.
After graduating from Bucknell University, she headed to New York City to make her way in the world. She was a World War II bride to A. Benjamin Williams, Jr. They were married for 67 years before his passing in July of 2007. After setting up homes in several states, they settled in Orange in 1958. Peg lived in Orange until moving to Cincinnati in 2009.
In addition to raising four children, Peg was an active member of the community. She was a longtime volunteer at Milford Hospital, serving as
treasurer for many years. She regularly attended services both at the New Haven Friends Meeting and the Orange Congregational Church, in volunteer activities with both organizations.
and Ben were members of the Milford Yacht Club where they loved to dance. Dancing to Big Band, both dressed to impress, was something that they continued to do well into their 70s and 80s. She was an avid and competitive bridge player and kept playing even when she was losing her sight. Dinner at Peg's house always finished with a game of cards and cake.
Politically, Peg always had a lot to say. She was an active member of the League of Woman Voters and Orange Women's Republican Club. She was an elected member of the Orange Board of Education. Many remembered her constant knitting during the meetings, getting louder when she disagreed.
Peg's interest in the arts was nurtured by memberships at the Yale Art Gallery and local theatres. She often escorted her grandchildren to various art galleries, sharing her love of modern art. With family and close friends spread across the country, Peg was a masterful letter writer and her thoughtful correspondence will be sorely missed.
She is survived by her children Arthur B. Williams III and his wife Judy of Orange, CT, Richard D. Williams and his wife Lisa of Yarmouth, ME, Gregory S. Williams and his wife Stephanie Somers of Evanston, IL, and Marguerite Kirkpatrick and her husband Chris of Cincinnati, OH. She is survived by 11 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren. She also is survived by her only brother, Robert Styer and his wife Patricia of
The family will gather on September 29th from 2:00p – 4:00p at the Orange Congregational Church on the green for a time to remember Peg; all are welcome. A private burial, to place her ashes next to her husband's, will follow at the Orange Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Norristown Monthly Meeting, PO box 823, Norristown, PA 19404.

Tropical cyclone Ita is weakening quickly as it tracks across Queensland's far north, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) says.
Ita was a category four cyclone as it crossed the coast near Cape Flattery about 9pm on Friday, but has been downgraded to a category one as it moves south across the state.
The weather bureau's Ken Kato said Ita was about 85 kilometres south of Cooktown and was moving south about nine kilometres per hour.
He said the cyclone was weakening and was likely to be downgraded to a tropical low later on Saturday.
"We've always anticipated that. Once it starts moving over that rugged terrain a bit inland of the coast it'll weaken fairly quickly - that's what's happening," Mr Kato told AAP.
"It should continue weakening as it moves south over that type of terrain."
He said the cyclone would head out into the Coral Sea somewhere off the north tropical coast in the next few days.
Cyclone warnings are current for coastal areas from Cape Melville to Cardwell, including Cooktown, Port Douglas and Cairns, and extending inland to areas including Mareeba and Chillagoe.
Damaging winds with gusts to 120km/h are possible south of Cooktown to Port Douglas for a brief period on Saturday afternoon, BoM also advises.
Coastal residents south of Cooktown to Cairns, including Port Douglas, are also being warned of a storm tide on Saturday.
Heavy rain, which BoM warns may lead to flash flooding, is buffeting parts of the North Tropical Coast and Tablelands districts.
BoM says the rain should gradually contract southwards with the system over the weekend.
Authorities had been warning Ita could be the worst cyclone to hit Queensland since Yasi three years ago, but damage appears to be less serious than expected.

Carrie Underwood Doesn't Care About Fancy Cars and Multiple Mansions
If there were any doubts about how down-to-earth Carrie Underwood is, they've been put to rest after her interview in the May issue of Glamour magazine. Underwood looks dashing on the magazine's cover, donning a peachy-orange dress and giving the camera a playful smile. But inside the spread, the gorgeous country star reveals that despite her major success, she's still just like 'real people.'
Underwood is arguably the most successful 'American Idol' winner to date, but she insists that being a celebrity doesn't detract from the authenticity of her songs. In the interview, Glamour asked Underwood if it's possible to write a great country song about being rich and famous. The country songstress cited her working-class background as the influence that keeps her grounded and able to relate to real people.
"…Country music is for real people. I think it would be very hard to write about my Louboutins. Do you know what I mean?" she answered. "My giant house, it's not relatable. But my husband came from a small town and hardworking parents like I did, and I don't think we've lost that mindset. We don't have a bowling alley in our basement. We don't have houses on the beach and one in New York and one in L.A. I drive a three-year-old Ford Escape Hybrid. We don't care about stuff like that."
The 'Good Girl' singer is married to Mike Fisher, a Nashville Predators hockey player who is famous in his own right and isn't affected by her celeb status. Underwood says that he knew what he was getting into when he married her.
"In Canada he was a big celebrity, so he knows what it's like living under a microscope," she says. "And he travels a lot, which is good for both of us. We're both independent people."
Underwood might not care about fancy cars and gigantic houses, but she admitted that she once spent $2,000 on a sweatshirt in Paris — on accident.
"I was in Paris and went into one of those big, name-brand, fancy-schmancy designers, and I picked up a sweatshirt," she confessed. "Maybe I didn't understand the price tag. I'm really bad with numbers. But when I went to check out, that sucker was $2,000."

Opposition Leader Tony Abbott says a coalition federal government will provide the funds to finish the upgrade of the east coast Pacific Highway from its first day in office.
Mr Abbott, who is driving a semi-trailer down the highway toward Sydney, said parts of the route are like a "1970s goat track".
"We need to get this upgrade done," he told reporters at Port Macquarie, the NSW town that is part of Independent federal MP Rob Oakeshott's electorate, on Thursday.
"There will be an election ... we will release the money from the word go."
Mr Abbott said a coalition government could put in 80 per cent, or $5.6 billion, with NSW kicking in the remaining 20 per cent to complete the works.
Infrastructure minister Anthony Albanese said this week Labor had already invested $4.1 billion in the highway and set aside its share of funding to complete its full duplication.
"All we've ever asked the NSW coalition government to do is honour the promise they made," he said.
"Only last week they agreed to fund the upgrade of the section between Frederickton and Eungai on a 50/50 basis."
So far, NSW has flagged $1 billion for Pacific Highway works.

Turner syndrome is a rare genetic condition in which a female does not have the usual pair of two X chromosomes.
The normal amount of human chromosomes is 46. Chromosomes contain all of your genes and DNA, the building blocks of the body. Two of these chromosomes, the sex chromosomes, determine if you become a boy or a girl. Females normally have two of the same sex chromosomes, written as XX. Males have an X and a Y chromosome (written as XY).In Turner syndrome; cells are missing all or part of an X chromosome. The condition only occurs in females. Most commonly, the female patient has only one X chromosome. Others may have two X chromosomes, but one of them is incomplete. Sometimes, a female has some cells with two X chromosomes, but other cells have only one.
- Possible symptoms in young infants include:
- Swollen hands and feet Wide and webbed neck
- A combination of the following symptoms may be seen in older females
- Absent or incomplete development at puberty, including sparse pubic hair and small breasts
- Broad, flat chest shaped like a shield
- Drooping eyelids
- Dry eyes
- Infertility
- No periods (absent menstruation)
- Short height
- Vaginal dryness, can lead to painful intercourse
Exams and tests
Turner syndrome can be diagnosed at any stage of life. It may be diagnosed before birth if a chromosome analysis is done during prenatal testing.The doctor will perform a physical exam and look for signs of poor development. Infants with Turner syndrome often have swollen hands and feet.
The following tests may be performed:
- Blood hormone levels (luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone)
- Echocardiogram
- Karyotyping
- MRI of the chest
- Ultrasound of reproductive organs and kidneys
- Pelvic exam
- Turner syndrome may also change estrogen levels in the blood and urine.
Growth hormone may help a child with Turner syndrome grow taller. Estrogen replacement therapy is often started when the girl is 12 or 13 years old. This helps trigger the growth of breasts, pubic hair, and other sexual characteristics. Women with Turner syndrome who wish to become pregnant may consider using a donor egg.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Those with Turner syndrome can have a normal life when carefully monitored by their doctor.
Possible Complications
- Abnormal aortic valve or narrowing of the aorta in an infant, and widening of the aorta in an adult
- Arthritis
- Cataracts
- Diabetes
- Hashimoto's thyroditis
- Heart defects
- High blood pressure
- Kidney problems
- Middle ear infections
- Obesity
- Scoliosis (in adolescence)
