Well, it's International Banana Festival Day…and I was trying to make the most delicious banana dish. However, it turned into the most disgusting thing I've ever attempted to make. I made baked bananas.
Newsflash, they are awful. This is was the most disgusting thing I have ever made. Remember that one time that I made pancakes and they sucked? These were worse. It said to mix butter, honey and lime juice pour it over the bananas and bake it for 15 minutes. I did that, had one bite and almost barfed. It was awful and mushy and not tasty.
It was a fail for the Banana Festival. It's too bad I didn't have a banana stand to visit. But seriously, I have never been more disappointed with how my baked bananas turned out.

Tonight I got to witness one of the greatest concerts I have ever seen in my life.
Me and my sister went to see Irina's concert in Tampere-talo and we are now both blown away. She is a major star in Finland. They had arranged the familiar songs and radio-hits into something totally new and it was so wonderful! Add an amazing light show, band formed by very handsome men and of course Irina's beautiful voice and you have tonight's show. Pure perfection! She is definitely the best female vocalist I know.

From HIRA, February 26, 2014
Matson is increasing its already high shipping rates yet again. We hear this same story so frequently that even those who truly understand the story and the related scam have become numb to its impact.
Everyone knows that Hawaii consumers pay the highest prices in the country. $3,000+ is the estimated cost per family in higher prices for letting Matson run its virtual monopoly racket in the shipping market to/from Hawaii. 95% of our goods must be imported . . . and most of that comes to Hawaii in Matson containers on Matson ships. Matson also charges TEN TIMES more than the private company's global competitors that are prohibited from doing business in Hawaii.
What could your family do with $3,000 more to spend each year (or $225,000 over 75 years)?
HERE'S THE SCAM: Hawaii's Democrat politicians deliberately increase the price of everything through a little known law known as The Jones Act, which is an out-dated, protectionist law from the early 20th century that prohibits global shipping competition. This causes artificially high prices because the entire cost of the inflated shipping is passed on to the consumer in the final price tag of all goods and services. Now, you would think that the hardworking, overtaxed and overcharged people of Hawaii deserve the absolute lowest prices on goods and services through vibrant global competition. However, Democrat politicians believe otherwise, and Matson wants to keep it that way. They use the Jones Act as an excuse to cover their price-fixing conspiracy. This forces Hawaii consumers into paying billions of dollars in higher prices.
HIRA'S position is quite simple . . . and the platform position taken by HRP and its candidates should be the same: We need to combat the artificially high prices that result from Hawaii's price inflating, job-killing, family-squeezing shipping monopoly. We will work to obtain a temporary exemption until the Federal government establishes a free trade zone across the entire state. Obtaining a permanent exemption from the Jones Act for Hawaii will authorize shipping companies from around the world to compete in serving the people of our islands; thereby lowering the cost of imported goods to local consumers and business. This new competition in shipping will remedy Hawaii's massive trade deficit by making competitive options available to Hawaii's manufacturers and exporters; thus generating new jobs and industries related to global trade. Hawaii can affordably compete in the global economy by manufacturing and exporting something other than our garbage (Hawaii's #1 export to the world).
If you do not believe there is a conspiracy against Hawaii consumers, then take it from Matthew J. Cox, the president and CEO of Matson, Inc. His e-mail HERE to every employee of Matson urging them to donate to pro-Jones Act Democrat politicians and to Matson's political PAC in order to protect Matson's existing shipping monopoly should be required reading for every resident of Hawaii. In this one-page e-mail, which is accompanied by a form authorizing payroll deductions by Matson employees for the company's political slush fund, Mr. Cox explains exactly how the scam works. Cox even explains how great it is that these politicians let Matson perform its repair of ships in China. That's right, CHINA.
Finally, HIRA needs your help to keep fighting the ruling Democrats who control Hawaii. Educating the public is key . . . and costly. Please support "HIRA Action" with your generous contribution today. With your help, we can give every family in Hawaii a $3,000 per year raise by putting an end to this corruption.

Nine varsities warned of action over plagiarism probe delay
Lahore, Jan 12: The Higher Education Commission (HEC) has come hard on nine different public sector universities, including the Punjab University (PU), for delay in deciding alleged cases of plagiarism.
The 21st meeting of the commission held on Monday expressed extreme dismay over delay by universities in investigating the alleged cases of plagiarism according to the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) developed by the Commission.
The meeting warned the universities of strict action, maintaining no new project for the said universities would be developed while funds would also be withheld.
According to some participants, the meeting was informed that many reminders were sent on various occasions to these universities but to no avail. They further said most of the cases had been pending for around two years, making the issue quite serious.
They said the cases of plagiarism allegations reported to the HEC on different occasions were forwarded to the universities concerned for investigation in the light of HEC Plagiarism Policy. "However, it has now been realized that the universities, in most of the cases, are not deciding the cases according to HEC's SOPs, delaying the cases unnecessarily", they added.
An official from the HEC said, in most of the cases, the universities were reluctant to constitute Plagiarism Standing Committee as required by the Commission, leading to the delay in the investigation.
Giving details of the alleged cases of plagiarism and delay on part of universities, he said two different cases were forwarded to the Punjab University, separately on July 17, 2008, and August 1, 2008, besides five reminders to decide the cases but to no avail.
The official further said, in the first case involving Abdullah Yasir and co-authors, the PU had not processed the case through Plagiarism Standing Committee as per policy and conveyed that the authors had not committed plagiarism. "The case was got evaluated by the HEC from a neutral person who was of the view that plagiarism was committed", he said, adding that the PU was reluctant to review the decision even after more than one year, despite several reminders.
The official said the second case of plagiarism allegations was against Nusrat Yasmeen and Maria Riaz, both PhD Scholars, of the PU Institute of Biochemistry & Biotechnology. In its initial inquiry report dated October 29, 2008, the PU Registrar informed that the research topics of both the scholars had been changed.
He said the names of the accused were even placed on HEC list of plagiarism cases under investigation but no further response had been received from the PU so far.
Similarly, he said, the delay in deciding the alleged cases of plagiarism was witnessed at Mehran University of Engineering & Technology (MUET) Jamshoro, Quaid-e-Awan University of Engineering & Technology (QUEST) Nawabshah, Bolan Medical College (BMC) Quetta, Bahauddin Zakariya University (BZU) Multan, University of Karachi, Quaid-e-Azam University (QAU) Islamabad, University of Peshawar and International Islamic University (IIU) Islamabad.
The meeting also expressed serious concerns regarding the violation of HEC's PhD award criteria by some institutions. It was decided that the Commission would not recognize the PhD degrees which did not fulfill the HEC quality criteria and were awarded after July 1, 2009.
The Commission issued directions to curtail the development funding to the institutions violating the quality criteria and take up with the chancellors of the universities to ensure that quality of higher education imparted in Pakistan was not compromised, and met international standards.
As per the criteria, it is necessary for the PhD dissertation to be approved by at least two eminent international experts in the relevant area and all scholars must publish a journal paper in any HEC recognized journal prior to submission of PhD thesis.
In the disciplines of Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics and five other disciplines in which International GRE examination is held, it is also necessary that PhD scholar have cleared the international examination prior to submission of thesis and award of degree.
When contacted, HEC Executive Director Dr Sohail H Naqvi said the universities had been warned of stern action in case of further delay, adding if the universities did not constitute Plagiarism Standing Committee, the HEC Plagiarism Committee might take final decision. The news
UAF engages retired officials in violation of policy
Faisalabad: Ignoring restrictions imposed by the Punjab government, the University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF) has recruited six retired government employees on special pay packages, sources said on Monday.
Lt-Col Asif Humayun (retired) is the latest addition to the academia on a package of Rs75,000 as chief security and states officer.
Earlier, the university employed five retired government employees - four ex-servicemen and a civilian in violation of rules.
Under the Recruitment Policy 2004, the Punjab government clearly laid down rules/procedure for recruitment on a regular and contract basis, determination of posts to be filled on a regular or contract basis, merit-based recruitment, eligibility and procedure for appointments.
Section 9 (VI) of the recruitment policy reads, "Under section 13 (1) of the Punjab Civil Servants Act 1974, a retired government servant is not eligible for appointment either on a regular or contract basis." The policy explained the retirement as retirement on attaining the age of superannuation i.e. 60 years, compulsory retirement after completion of 20-year service, compulsory retirement under provisions of Punjab Civil Servants (E&D) Rules or Punjab Removal from Service (special powers) ordinance 2000 and optional retirement after completion of prescribed qualifying service for pension.
However, the UAF administration did not bother to follow the instructions and continued to make `favourite ' people part of the academia.
Putting the criteria on the backburner, the UAF employed brigadier Javed Anwar (retd) as director development on July 7, 2009, against a special pay package of Rs 75,000, Lt-Col Saghir Ahmed (retired) on July 24, 2009, as project director, engineering and construction department, against Rs75,000 a month, Lt-Col Asif Humayun (retired) on Jan 5 last on a package of Rs75,000 as chief security and states officer, Maj Ijaz Anwar (retired) for Rs30,000 on May 28, 2008 as transport officer and Lt Nasir Mehmood (retd) as security officer in basic scale 16 on Oct 28, 2008.
A retired employee of the agriculture department, Rana Ajmal, was made part of the university on Sep 12, 2009, as director planning against a salary of Rs60,000 per month. Sources said the chancellor had not approved the job terms and conditions of this job that was mandatory.
All seats were created by the administration on its own as the University Act has no provision for such seats.
Reiterating the official policy over the recruitment issue of retired government officials, the Services and General Administration Department of the provincial government had, on April 10, 2008, issued a letter (SI. 2-35/2000) titled "Re-employment of civil servants after retirement from government service," to all institutions, including the heads of autonomous bodies, administrative secretaries, inspector general of police, heads of attached departments in Punjab and all district coordination officers.
"Re-employment of the retired officers/officials from civil, army and police under your administrative controll may be terminated with immediate effect." The letter only exempted the officials re-employed in basic scale 1 to 11.
The departments were asked to ensure compliance of the direction without exception. The letter reads that it must also be ensured that all these termination orders are issued individually and those terminated are relieved of their charge with immediate effect. The heads were also asked that in case of requirement of one month's notice, salary of the same period may be paid, in lieu thereof.
In the light of the S&GAD letter, the UAF and the Government College University, Faisalabad, had shown the door to many employees and compliance report was submitted to the Punjab government.
It is pertinent to mention here that the UAF declared illegal the appointment of 63 employees, including professors, associate and assistant professors, lectures, deputy registrars and a deputy treasure under the recruitment policy 2004. However, the university administration itself violated the same recruitment policy by recruiting the retired government employees.
Principal Officer, Public Relations and Publications, Dr Jalal Arif quoted the vice-chancellor Dr Iqrar Ahmed as saying that all appointments were made in the light of the government policy. He said the government had banned the appointment of such employees who were on the verge of retirement and not retired officials.
He said during the closure of the universities because of terror threats, the chancellor had asked all the public universities to hire chief security officers retired from army.
Dr Jalal also said that appointments of the six officials fell in the university statute. However, the University Act has no words on such appointments made by the university.
Contracts of 2,500 Punjab lecturers
Lahore: The contracts of lecturers recruited in 2005 are beginning to expire from Tuesday (today) and the incumbents fear stoppage of their salaries in case their services are not regularised or their contracts not renewed.
The All-Punjab Professors and Lecturers Association (APPLA), a newly-formed body, has made representations to the Punjab higher education department two weeks ago to take action well in time for smooth functioning of their jobs.
APPLA president Zafar Khan Jadoon, senior vice-president Zahid Mian and secretary-general Nadeem Anwar said there were about 2,500 lecturers, who would be claiming regularisation of their services on completing five-year term.
The APPLA leaders have also demanded that about 700 contract lecturers belonging to the 2002 batch should also be regularised. They said that these lecturers' regularisation was deferred on the pretext that either they were on study leave, showed below board or university result pass percentage or showed no results in their subjects. They claimed that some lecturers were not regularised who showed just one or two per cent below the board or university results.
They said that a number of lecturers were either serving in remote areas or had no students of their subject and they had to teach some compulsory subjects on the direction of their respective principals.
When contacted, Punjab higher education secretary Ahad Khan Cheema said no contract teacher would face suspension of his/her salary as the department was working on all such issues. He said that most contract lecturers were recruited in May 2005. He said that a number of lecturers not fulfilling the criteria in letter and spirit were also regularised.
To a question, he said the department had sought advice from the regulations department about the regularisation of lecturers, who remained on study leave. Dawn
Aman Ki Asha
Lahore: All Indian Schools Association President PK Sehgal and Private Schools Management Association Central President Adeeb Javedani have agreed on a students exchange programme as a goodwill gesture under 'Aman Ki Asha'. According to the programme, 50 students from each country will visit the other in February.
During a telephonic conversation with Javedani, PK Sehgal said 'Aman Ki Asha' was the best way forward for peace between the two countries. He said the effort by the Jang Group and the Times of India would pave the way for a congenial environment for the two countries and it would help them understand each other's concerns and address them accordingly. He said better Indo-Pak relations meant better educational systems as both countries could share knowledge and educational reforms through student and professional interaction.
Adeeb Javedani commended the friendly gesture of PK Sehgal of inviting Pakistani students to India and said that a delegation of 50 students would visit Delhi In February and Pakistan would host a similar delegation from India in March.
He said 'Aman Ki Asha' had kindle a new hope for pleasant relationship between the two country and it gave everyone of us a chance to play our role in the mammoth step forward taken my the media groups of India and Pakistan.
Focus on sterilisation
Lahore: The Young Doctors Association (YDA) has demanded Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif issue order for establishment of central sterilization departments and installation of incinerators at all government hospitals as fatal diseases such as Hepatitis and HIV/AIDS are spreading through non-sterilised surgical instruments and reuse/recycling of hospital waste.
According to a press release issued on Monday, YDA President Dr Rana Sohail, General Secretary Dr Salman Kazmi, Dr Aslam Rao, Dr Irfan Rao, Dr Talha Sherwani, Dr Nazam Ali, Dr Maryam, Dr Lalarukh and others said that Hepatitis C was spreading at an alarming rate as every 10th person was suffering from this disease.
They said the Punjab government was spending drugs/Inj. Interferon worth up to Rs 60,000 on treatment of a Hepatitis C patient, but had spent little to prevent spread of this fatal disease by establishing central sterilization units at teaching and DHQ hospitals for sterilisation of instruments to control the spread of this disease.
They said the Punjab government had got installed ACs and generators in all hospitals but didn't pay heed towards installation of incinerators to dispose of hospital waste to curb recycling/reuse of used instruments. Hospital waste recycling mafia was quite active and was involved in reuse of syringes.
Teachers warn of protest
Lahore: The Punjab Government Schools Senior Staff Association (PGSSSA) has announced protests if the government allowed NGOs to adopt any big public sector school.
In a press statement, PGSSSA President Hafiz Abdul Nasir and other office-bearers said if NGOs wanted to adopt public sector schools, they should adopt schools which were deprived of facilities and were not best ones.
The PGSSSA office-bearers said the Government Central Model School, Samanabad and the Girls Higher Secondary School, Samanabad, were among the best educational institutions of the city.
They said schools' adoption besides creating many troubles also led to dual administration. They demanded the government withdraw the policy regarding schools' adoption. The news

Helloooo, now I know you might have just read the title and thought how has this beauty blogger not ever tried a Revlon product before! I know, I know and it's not something I am proud of, haha. If you live in the UK then you will know that Superdrug is one of the main places to buy highstreet (drugstore) makeup and beauty products. I love Superdrug as they have always got some AMAZING deals on.
So I was wondering through Superdrug when a large 2 for £10 banner caught my eye above the Revlon stand. One of the beauty products that I have been dying to try for ages is the Revlon Lip Butters and so I couldn't not go over and pick one up. Included in the deal were all Revlon lip products, nail polishes and mascaras. I picked up the Revlon Colour Burst Lip Butter in Wild Watermelon and the Revlon Lash Potion Grow Mascara in Blackest Black.
This was such as an AMAZING deal as I picked up products worth £9.99 and £7.99 for only £10 and therefore saving £7.98. So I basically got the Lip Butter for free.
Now on to the products and I am so impressed with both of them. The mascara leaves my lashes looking really long and I hardly need many coats to get this effect which stops my lashes from ever looking clumpy. The packaging is so nice and I really like the wand. The Lip Butter is so good. I had read so many reviews and they deserve the hype they get because they really are a products I can not fault. The colour I picked up is a really nice subtle red and the colour lasts for ages. These glide on to your lips and leave them feeling really smooth. I will definitely be picking up a couple more shades whilst the deal is on.
I also wanted to put a quick note down here to say that Skincare Sunday will appear slightly later this week.
Have you tried any of these products?

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011, Tomas Alfredson)
One of the defining English language novels of the 20th century, Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy has earned a rightful place on a countless number lists which enumerate the most artistically important novels of the past 100 years or so. Anyone willing to venture into the spy genre in literature is immediately directed not only to the works of John Le Carré (pen name), but specifically that novel. As most people familiar with the film world are keenly aware, successful books typically lead to cinematic and television adaptations, and Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy has not been exempt from such a treatment. The 1970s saw the creation of a BBC miniseries starring the legendary Sir Alec Guiness and, interestingly enough, the series itself has garnered near equal praise to that received by the source material. Now, in 2011, over 30 years after that BBS show, arrives the film adaptation, highlighted by, firstly, a remarkable cast that would make even Steven Soderbergh blush, and secondly, by one of the most interesting new directors on the scene, Swede Tomas Alfredson, who wowed just about everyone three prior with the vampire tale Let the Right One In.
The novel is blessed (or cursed, depending on whom one asks) with stunning depth of psychological character study, thus making it a challenging read, especially the first time. Tomas Alfredson's film attempts to keep the plot down to the bare minimum. Essentially, a recently retired British spy, George Smiley (Gary Oldman) is dragged back into service, temporarily at least, to investigate some disturbing possibilities within the high ranks of the secret service. It is rumoured that a mole, or double-agent for those unfamiliar with spy linguistics, has infiltrated the Circus (MI6) some years ago and has climbed his way up the echelon. The service's former chief, Control (John Hurt, playing a character the equivalent of 'M' in the Bond pictures) believed, prior to his passing, that the enemy was one of four top officials, among them Bill Hayden (Colin Firth), Roy Bland (Ciaràn Hinds), Percy Alleline (Tobey Jones) and Smiler himself. Links to the truth lie with field agent Ricky Tarr (Tom Hardy), back from a long defunct misison, as well as with another field agent believed to be deceased, Jim Prideaux (Mark Strong). Smiley acquires himself an young assistant, Peter Guillam (Benedict Cumberbatch), to help him swath through the lies, conspiracies and shadows.
It seems quite amazing that a mere two films into what shall undoubtedly be an illustrious career, director Tomas Alfredson has already acquire and honed a style unto his own. He has a knack for creating artistically noteworthy scenes, via both production design and simple cinematography. What Alfredson succeeds at is what those more familiar with cinema's academic language refer to as being an 'auteur.' His visual style is not merely distinctive, but it simultaneously sets a mood, which itself puts scenes into context, which subsequently helps advance the story. Let the Right One In was a vastly different motion picture, with scenes taking place around snow, in schools, with children, in a different country altogether, although one can certainly detect the similarities between that horror story and this spy thriller. Nearly every scene is inhabited by an austerity which exquisitely sets the tone for the moment and what is to follow. One need remember that when Le Carré created these stories, he was inspired by the experiences acquired throughout his own career. The omnipresent austerity reminds the viewer that spies need always be on their toes, do not reveal too much, do not truly be yourself. In fact, lose yourself altogether for the greater good of whatever mission a spy is tasked with. What surprises most is that the film can extrapolate moments of suspense and genuine emotion, especially on the part of characters like Smiley and Ricky Tarr, this despite all the seriousness on display.
Alfredson's camera is rarely, if ever, particularly flashy, preferring rather to move quite smoothly from character to character, showing precisely what needs to be shown in order to convey whatever is required out of a scene and nothing more. There are no wasted shots. A brilliant example of this when Smiley recounts to Peter the time when he had the privilege of speaking to Control's Moscow opposite. The confidence Alfredson has in telling this story through a clever yet remarkably simple camera trick. Nothing supremely complex is required, just a small, unorthodox touch that sets the scene apart from so many other scenes in films where a character reveals something that occurred in his or her past. What is shown, how it is shown and when it is shown are three elements Alfredson clearly takes into consideration in very specific ways, playing with colours, lighting and angles in realistic yet powerful ways. As mentioned above, from a visual standpoint, Alfredson's movies have genuine artistic merit to them, even though upon first glance they may appear more grim and boring than anything else.
Obviously, an articles discussing this version of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy would be woefully incomplete without mention of the cast. The film is blessed with three standouts. Chief among them is Gary Oldman, who inhabits a spy like non other. This review briefly mentioned how a spy might intentionally lose him or herself in order to progress. Spying is a game of intentional, subtle games of trust and mistrust. Oldman's Smiley is one of the most difficult characters ever to read in a movie, not because the script gives the actor nothing to do, but because, as an old pro, he knows he must somehow be as detached as possible, emotionally, speaking all the while remaining as attached as possible, professionally, speaking There are fleeting moments, such as when Smiley learns that Control once believed Smiley himself could be the mole, when one can detect the slightest emotional reaction, although it comes and goes so quickly one will miss it if one blinks. To counter the near unflappable Smiley is Cumberbatch who plays Peter Guillam. More youthful and energetic, his services are not only plot related, but help to balance out some of the tone set with the characters since we follow him nearly as much as Smiley. Finally, there is Tom Hardy as Ricky Tarr, the half disillusioned, half romantically desperate field agent who wants nothing more than to ensure that the Russian woman he fell in love with while on his final mission is admitted into Britain. While Hardy is not a central character, his performance does give many scenes a bit of a lift.
After dissecting so many positive aspects to the film, what could possibly prevent Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy from being a masterpiece? In one word, the script. There are far, far too many characters played by actors who are far too fantastic for the two hour run time to ever cope with developing all of them sufficiently. The crux of the problem is that, by the end, it matters very little who the mole was since the people who get the shaft are the three prime suspects. Now, arguments have been tossed around, admirably so even, that the film is not really concerned with that matter. While that is a fair point, Alfredson's direction, in particular during the moment of the reveal, suggest otherwise. His direction in the scene when it is revealed that Control suspected Smiley of possibly being the traitor suggests otherwise. Plenty of superbly directed scenes suggest otherwise, leaving the script to limp forward instead of march confidently. There is a lot of time investigating through interviews with other characters and by stealing secret documents from MI6 libraries. To top it off, the suspects are played by Colin Firth, Tobey Jones and Ciaràn Hinds! In this regard, there is, unfortunately, a lack of connection between the direction and the script.
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy might not be remembered as the best adaptation of Le Carré famous novel, but there are more than enough good things about it for those looking for some adult minded entertainment to be satisfied.

Will I lose control when I'm in hypnosis?
No you won't. Hypnosis is a 100% consent state and you're always in control. Nobody can be hypnotised against their will. Nobody can be forced to do anything against their will while in hypnosis. The 'loss-of-control' misconception originates from the world of entertainment and stage hypnosis. Stage hypnosis makes use of volunteers that are happy to play the fool for the audience and stage hypnosis should never be confused with clinical hypnosis.

Columbia-Fordham: Keys to the Game
The Lions are finally going to hit the field (CREDIT: Columbia University Athletics/Ben Shyman)
Without a Columbia two-deep to work with, it's a little tougher to pinpoint the key factors in tonights opener at Fordham, but not impossible.
Key #1: Columbia's Running Game vs. Fordham's Run Defense
An improved running game isn't just the top key to the game tonight for Columbia, it's the #1 key to the entire season. Fordham's run defense has been disastrous so far in 2007, and if presumed starter Jordan Davis and backup Ray Rangel can't get decent yards the Lions may be in big trouble. The Columbia offensive line led by junior Ralph DeBernardo and senior Mike Partain have been motivated for months to improve the unit as a whole. Tonight we see if that determination paid off.
Key #2: Columbia's Pass Defense vs. Fordham's Run and Shoot
Fordham is playing a much faster style of football right now, which could be a problem for a Columbia team that may still be sweeping the cobwebs off from a 10-month offseason. It's been raining in the New York area this morning, and that might slow the field down a bit. But the Rams have FieldTurf at Jack Coffey Stadium, and it dries pretty quickly. Sophomore QB John Skelton has been doing pretty well using the four wide-receiver set, and the Lions defense must first put more pressure on him and then make sure they have things covered downfield if he does get the pass away. Another major issue is how well the Lions will play when Fordham gets into the red zone. The Rams are 5-5 with 5 TD's in the red zone this year, and that's a huge statistic.
Key #3: Who's the QB?
It looked like transfer Shane Kelly was leading the pack to replace the injured Craig Hormann at least for tonight's opener. But now it appears all bets are off as we still haven't seen a starting lineup from Coach Wilson. Somehow, I expect to be surprised by whoever ends up under center tonight. But no matter what, Columbia needs a smart and seasoned performance from the QB position against a Fordham team that has played an erratic but effective defense when it comes to giving up points. With all the yardage the Rams are coughing up, it's amazing opposing teams have scored just 46 total points against them in the first two games. The Lions need to avoid turnovers and execute in the red zone.
Key #4: Special Teams
Fordham has a booming punter in Benjamin Dato and Isiejah Allen has been strong on kick and punt returns. The Lions will need to contain Allen and give the offense some decent field position on their own returns. One advantage Columbia does have is in placekicking, where the outstanding junior John Rocholl outmatches Fordham's new starter Adam Danko.

Selective activation of primary afferent fibers evaluated by sine-wave electrical stimulation

First Online: 25 March 2005Received: 09 February 2005Accepted: 25 March 2005
Transcutaneous sine-wave stimuli at frequencies of 2000, 250 and 5 Hz Neurometer are thought to selectively activate Aβ, Aδ and C afferent fibers, respectively. However, there are few reports to test the selectivity of these stimuli at the cellular level. In the present study, we analyzed action potentials APs generated by sine-wave stimuli applied to the dorsal root in acutely isolated rat dorsal root ganglion DRG preparations using intracellular recordings. We also measured excitatory synaptic responses evoked by transcutaneous stimuli in substantia gelatinosa SG neurons of the spinal dorsal horn, which receive inputs predominantly from C and Aδ fibers, using in vivo patch-clamp recordings. In behavioral studies, escape or vocalization behavior of rats was observed with both 250 and 5 Hz stimuli at intensity of ~0.8 mA T5- T250, whereas with 2000 Hz stimulation, much higher intensity 2.14 mA, T2000 was required. In DRG neurons, APs were generated at T5-T250 by 2000 Hz stimulation in Aβ, by 250 Hz stimulation both in Aβ and Aδ, and by 5 Hz stimulation in all three classes of DRG neurons. However, the AP frequencies elicited in Aβ and Aδ by 5 Hz stimulation were much less than those reported previously in physiological condition. With in vivo experiments large amplitude of EPSCs in SG neurons were elicited by 250 and 5 Hz stimuli at T5- T250. These results suggest that 2000 Hz stimulation excites selectively Aβ fibers and 5 Hz stimulation activates noxious transmission mediated mainly through C fibers. Although 250 Hz stimulation activates both Aδ and Aβ fibers, tactile sensation would not be perceived when painful sensation is produced at the same time. Therefore, 250 Hz was effective stimulus frequency for activation of Aδ fibers initiating noxious sensation. Thus, the transcutaneous sine-wave stimulation can be applied to evaluate functional changes of sensory transmission by comparing thresholds with the three stimulus frequencies.

Dana Angluin, James Aspnes, Jiang Chen, David Eisenstat, and Lev Reyzin. Learning acyclic probabilistic circuits using test paths. Journal of Machine Learning Research, 10(Aug):1881–1911, 2009. An earlier version appeared in Twenty-First International Conference on Learning Theory (COLT), July 2008, pp. 169–179.
We define a model of learning probabilistic acyclic circuits using value injection queries, in which an arbitrary subset of wires is set to fixed values, and the value on the single output wire is observed. We adapt the approach of using test paths from the Circuit Builder algorithm (Angluin et al., STOC 2006) to show that there is a polynomial time algorithm that uses value injection queries to learn Boolean probabilistic circuits of constant fan-in and logarithmic depth. In the process, we discover that test paths fail utterly for circuits over alphabets of size greater than two and establish upper and lower bounds on the attenuation factor of test paths versus general experiments for general and transitively reduced Boolean probabilistic circuits. To overcome the limitations of test paths for non-Boolean alphabets, we introduce function injection queries, which allow the symbols on a wire to be mapped to other symbols rather than just to themselves or constants.

Knee pain care has no impact on long-term outcomes
GP care for knee pain does not currently have any benefits for long-term outcomes and could even make things worse, research suggests.
A study of 1,500 older adults found 91% of people who consulted their GP still had knee pain after three years, compared with 73% who self-treated.
The researchers admitted that those who consulted might have had a worse problem to start with, but said the fact remained that existing treatments were hardly ever effective at relieving chronic pain.
Study leader, Dr Milisa Blagojevic, a post-doctoral researcher at Keele University, said: 'There are complex issues going on - people themselves often have low expectations of what can be done, and may not prioritise their joint problem if they have other health concerns.
'Treatments are often dependent on long-term compliance with tablets, and exercise regimes which may prove very difficult for patients to sustain.'
She added that guidance from NICE on osteoarthritis was due out in the Spring, which would lay out the options of what could be done for knee pain.
'There is evidence that people are not receiving the full menu of treatment options in primary and secondary care, she said.
The paper was published online in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases.

Drone Regulations Should Focus on Safety and Privacy
The following is an excerpt from THE EDITORIAL BOARD | January 9, 2016 | Nytimes.com |
Though it would have been inconceivable just a few years ago, among the most popular gifts this past holiday season was the drone. Increasingly coveted by hobbyists and businesses, these devices flew (as it were) off the shelves and into living rooms by the hundreds of thousands.
But as drones have become smaller, cheaper and more numerous — some popular consumer models sell for less than $1,000 — policy makers have had to address potential problems. These machines can obviously be put to good use — say, inspecting cellphone towers, shooting movies or compiling multidimensional real estate portfolios. They can also be used to snoop on people and harass them. And they can threaten other aircraft.
Some regulation of the private and commercial use of drones thus seems inevitable. The task for regulators is how to protect privacy and promote safety without infringing on the First Amendment rights of citizens and businesses that wish to use drones for legitimates purposes, like photography or news gathering (The Times has used drones to shoot videos and take photographs).

Adam Hunt, the developer of the popular mobile game Pumped: BMX has been hard at work on improving his formula and has just released the first screenshots of the new and improved Pumped BMX 2.
Pumped BMX 2 is an addictive extreme sports game for real enthusiasts. The aim of the game is to make it to the end of the level by landing a series of jumps smoothly, whilst also beating a number of trick and score challenges. The levels start simply but quickly become fiendishly difficult, and literally millions of potential trick combinations ensure the challenges stay fresh.
Pumped BMX 2 adds a number of improvements to the original game, most notably is that it is now 3D, allowing the player to combine spins and tricks such as truck drivers, 360 tailwhips.
Adam has doubled the number of tricks the player can do including some pretty wild additions like the 360 bikeflip frontflip, which he says is "a ridiculous (if not slightly horrifying) trick."
And if that's not enough Adam has also added grinds and manuals. "Don't expect to be doing over-crooks, but icepicks, toothpicks and 50-50s are all locked in."
In total there will be 16 air tricks to be combined with flips and spins and linked together with grinds and manuals. "I tried (and failed) to do the math, but the number of potential combos is way up in the millions!"
"Ride a relaxed line and do nothing but floaty 360's, x-ups and kickouts, or go big and throw down double front flips, 720 turn downs or an ice pick to decade – the game is there to let you ride how you want."
– 16 carefully animated tricks
– Millions of combos including grind and manual lines
– Four worlds with awesome unique environments
– More to be announced…
Pumped BMX 2 will be released Summer 2014 for iPhone and iPad, with Android to follow soon after.

6 Simple Ways to Keep Away Body Pains during Winters
Whether it is winter temperatures dipping, a lower temperature caused due to rains or chills created by air conditioning, the moment our body experiences lower temperatures than it is comfortable with, various forms of aches crop up, esp. if you already have a condition or have been physically hurt.

Winters are typically associated with several types of body pains. Particularly, we've seen higher incidences of nerve – related pain, joint pains and vascular pains during the season.

Manage your pains by following these 6 tips:

1. Keep yourself warm
Needless to say, it's extremely important to keep yourself warm when its gets uncomfortably cold. Clinical research has shown higher incidence of nerve – related, vascular pain and joint pains if your body is exposed to low temperatures for long periods. This is especially true if you are 60+ in age. So, dress appropriately with body warmers, sweaters and jackets

2. Keep yourself physically active
A colder weather reduces average activity levels. An average person walks up to 1,000 lesser steps when its cold. To avoid pain in knees and other joints, it's especially important to keep up activity levels. Try and take out time for walking in the afternoons or evenings, even if it is inside your house or office.

3. Take care of your diet
It is important to ensure that your intake of Vitamin D, Calcium and Vitamin B complex is adequate. Make sure that your diet remains rich in dal, green leafy vegetables (Vitamin B complex), milk (Calcium) and cheese and egg yolk (Vitamin D).

4. Get enough exposure to sunlight
Lesser exposure to the sun causes Vitamin D deficiency during winters, which can result in fatigue, lethargy and general body pains. Make sure to get at least 15-20 minutes of sunlight exposure, ideally in the mornings around 9am to 10am.

5. Avoid the wrong foods
Actively manage your diseases like diabetes and hypertension to stay pain free. If you suffer from diabetes, make sure that you do not overeat foods with high glycemic index. If you suffer from hypertension, it is important to keep away from spicy and oily foods.

6. Get expert advice
Visit your pain specialist if your pains continue for more than 2 weeks. Be regular with your prescribed pain medications, but strictly avoid self-medication or overuse of painkillers.

The Board of Education agreed to pursue a venture to make one of its public school buildings the site of a Bergen Community College satellite campus.
Kaye Walter, president of Bergen Community College, said she and her staff work closely with Englewood, one of the larger feeder school districts for the college.
"I'm excited because we will be coming back to Englewood resuming what took place many, many years ago," said Ursula Daniels a professor of education and psychology at Bergen Community College.
"If the district has some facilities that the community is paying for, and if for little to no incremental cost the community can get benefit from those facilities outside of the school day, I do indeed think it is a win-win," said Pruitt.
If the plan is to go forward it could also greatly benefit neighboring communities such as Tenafly, Clsoter, Cresskill and Demarest

I haven't had much time to write here lately and it's not because I haven't wanted to. My life has completely changed in the last few months when I decided to write a book. Not realizing how much time that takes, on top of having a full-time job, I've been lacking on being able to post new music.
Due to the fact that I'm very busy at the moment, I will be taking a small break from Sounds That Matter. I'll be back when I feel that "In the Air" is near completion and my life has calmed down a bit.
In the meantime, feel free to look at all of the past posts I've made and all of the wonderful artists who have had a part in making Sounds That Matter such an incredible journey. I will post randomly on the STM Facebook page, so keep an eye out for that.
If you're curious to hear more about my book, In the Air, visit the site here, where I'll be releasing teasers and playlists up until the release.
Happy Halloween and may you all enjoy the holidays.

"We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. That would change my calculus," Obama said. "That would change my equation. . . . We're monitoring that situation very carefully. We have put together a range of contingency plans."
"In July, he warned that Assad would be "held accountable by the international community" if he made the "tragic mistake" of deploying chemical munitions."
So, let me see if I have this straight.
The President warned Syria and Assad that if they used chemical weapons on their own people, that would be a game changer and would cross a red line, and there would be consequences. In his own words, "held accountable."
Then, the Americans, in their own minds anyway, say they are satisfied that there is irrefutable proof that Syria did that exact thing they were warned against, the thing that would be a "tragic mistake." So, The President went to Congress to get the okay to bomb Syria. And got it.
But, it isn't popular, so now that Russia has stepped in and decided they don't want another cold war that could lead to nuclear bombs being set to fire, ala the Cuban Missile Crisis, over something like a small (yet not insignificant) civil war in Syria, it seems that Syria is allowed to use chemical weapons on its own people. The punishment is to "not do it again" and "give us all the ones you have left so you can't do it again" and it is "okay you did it when we told you and warned you not to do it" in the first place. Oh, and by the way, after we destroy all the ones you have now (that you said you didn't use on your own people, but seem to have a lot of for no reason anyway) you can eventually just get more and then use them again. Don't worry, we wont bomb you, we will just threaten to do that so the world knows we are very powerful and stand on the moral high ground.
I am not in favor of bombing Syria in the first place. But, if you are going to be the world leader and stand on the moral high ground, when you say there will be consequences and you mean that to be that you will bomb the crap out of the Syrian Government forces so they get the message that you will not tolerate that sort of behavior, then you bomb the crap out of them. Otherwise, nobody gives a rats ass what you say you will do.
Much like a parent who promises to punish their kid for bad behavior, but yet when said bad behavior comes, they do nothing. Or maybe they tell them that they will do something...next time, but you are giving them a freebie this time. Except that next time, you let them walk away from it scott free as well. Because they know, and you know, that your word and your threat mean jack squat.
Yes, President Obama, you are the dog thats bark is much worse than his bite. In fact, you are the dog that barks and the robbers walk right past you. Because you are that dog that is more likely to lick the face of the robbers than defend his own property.
Now, I understand that America is fading in the terms of world superiority, and it is important to show the world you still have the biggest stick in the land. It is all you have left, that mighty army of yours. China and Russia sure don't want to bomb Syria. Neither does Canada, or Britain, or just about any other country. They know it is a waste of time. Because if you are going to do it, you would have done it ages ago, and if you were, or are going to do it, you don't just hurt them. You cripple them and you make sure they are eliminated. But that would mean real war, real casualties on your side and a shitload of money to do it. Money and will for sacrifice that you don't have.
So, next time, if you are just going to be the lip service president that you have been from day 1, just shut up. At least let them think you are the world leader. Don't show them that you aren't.
Where I come from, if you say you are going to do something if someone does something and then they do that something, you do exactly what you said you were going to do. Otherwise, what you say means nothing.
"Actions speak louder than words"
Keep up the illusion. That is all you have (had) anyway.
I'm not saying bomb Syria. I am saying that if you say you are going to do it, then you do it. Otherwise, don't say it. The worst thing you can do as a leader is say you will do something and then not follow through. What happens the next time, when Obama makes another threat? Likely, the crazy nut who is running whatever regime that is threatened will just ignore him. Why? Well, he threatened Assad and now he didn't actually do anything. So, that is what we can expect from him this time.

Hey Everyone!
So I know I have been a little recluse lately, in part because I had eye surgery, but also because we here at Cedar Coast have been working on a big project!
In a serendipitous moment, I was asked by the producer and host of The Health, Wellness and Lifestyle Show to join her team to film 3 segments for this up coming fall's episodes! Trust me, I was equally surprised!
So several weeks ago I joined Tammy-Lynn McNabb and the crew at Pomme Natural Food Market and filmed three segments, all focused on domestic sustainability, green living and of course, what Cedar Coast Sustainability strives to do for their clients. Needless to say, it was an amazing opportunity that I feel so lucky to have had!
I don't know the exactly dates or times yet, but there are three episodes to run in October, November and December on JoyTV in Canada. When I know those details, I'll be sure to share them with you (with a combination of excitement and embarrassment- I've never been one to enjoy the spotlight) Keep an eye out on the website as well for a Media page, where in which I will post my segments for my readers and followers.
Update! So I realised it's not just on JoyTV, as it is it's own show which is also shown internationally and nationally on both JoyTV and the One channel www.onetv.ca . So check your TV provider and have a look for which one you have! Otherwise I'll post the episodes here on Cedar Coast 🙂
Thanks for your support as always and I am looking forward to growing Cedar Coast alongside all of you!
Cheers, Heather

Yes, she is a little star, she cries when you're threatening her about not going to rehearsal, she puts order between children and dances her soul out. On Sunday she perfomed on the main Romanian Opera stage: "The Doll's Store". I'm very proud of my little daughter and I'd love her to pursue her dream of becoming a real ballerina.
Pictures by Mihai Stetcu.
I asked myself if is my dream or her's, cause I didn't want to force her to fulfill my own dreams. Well... I never dreamed of being ballerina, I always wanted to be a gymnast. When I was a child, my real star was Nadia Comaneci, that's what I was dreaming about. But my skills were never so sharp, so I chose to be for a long time an artistic gymnast, before this sport became an Olympic discipline.
So, I hope Mara will have the drive to become a ballerina, as I know we will help her in all her wishes and dreams.

Evaporite facies of the Michigan Basin
William B. Harrison III, Peter J. Voice, 2018. "Evaporite facies of the Michigan Basin", Paleozoic Stratigraphy and Resources of the Michigan Basin, G. Michael Grammer, William B. Harrison, III, David A. Barnes

The Michigan Basin is one of the world's important sedimentary basins that contains significant quantities of evaporites. Here, evaporites are found in deposits of Ordovician through Mississippian age rocks; however, most of the thick evaporite accumulations occur in Silurian and Devonian intervals. Halite is most significant in the Silurian Salina Group, with a maximum aggregate thickness of halite exceeding 650 m (2150 ft). During the earliest evaporite deposition in the Salina Group (A-1 Evaporite), sylvite was widely deposited in the north-central portion of the basin within the upper 91.4 m (300 ft) of the formation. Devonian salt is also present in the north-central portion of the basin in the Horner Member of the Lucas Formation, where maximum aggregate net thickness of halite reaches 125 m (410 ft). Recrystallization of much of the halite obscures the primary depositional crystal geometry; however, some well-preserved beds do show crystal growth that is interpreted as bottom-growth chevrons, which likely suggest shallow-water deposition. Throughout the rest of the Michigan Basin, in both space and time, the evaporite phase deposited is CaSO4. In the shallowest portions of the Mississippian Michigan Formation, the sulfate mineral phase is gypsum; everywhere else in the basin, all the evaporitic sulfate deposits are anhydrite. Although the dehydration of the gypsum to anhydrite has slightly altered the original depositional morphology, some primary growth geometry is still evident. Subtidal and sabkha morphologies can be documented in all the anhydrite/gypsum deposits of the Michigan Basin. Based on historic production, evaporite minerals have added an estimated $15.5 billion (in 2013 dollars) to the industrial mineral economy of Michigan since the first commercial development in the 1860s.

Environmental Factors in the Etiology of Human Cancer-Chemical Agents and Processes
28 May
As noted in Chapter 1, the incidence of cancer at various tissue sites in humans varies greatly among countries and even within certain countries. Immigrants and especially their descendants tend to acquire the cancer incidences characteristic of their new habitats. The conclusion has been drawn that a high percentage, perhaps as much as 80%, of the more frequent and statisti- cally important human neoplasms (of the bronchi, stomach, colon, breast, and others) have envi- ronmental factors, including lifestyle, as major components of their etiology. This has further led to a general agreement that at least 50% of all human cancers could be avoided if existing etio- logical knowledge were applied (cf. Tomatis et al., 1997). Differences in the exposure to carci- nogenic radiations [other than solar ultraviolet (UV) light as the major cause of skin cancer], infectious disease, or hormonal factors do not appear sufficient to explain the geographical dif- ferences noted for most of the major cancers. Therefore a number of environmental chemicals, both synthetic and of natural occurrence, are under strong suspicion as carcinogens important in the etiology of much cancer in the human. Most notable among these are the chemicals in to- bacco smoke. Asbestos and certain industrial chemicals have been implicated in some human cancers. However, contrary to some reports, present cancer incidence trends do not suggest a significantly rising age-adjusted incidence if lung cancer is factored out. Other than the continu- ing rise in bronchogenic carcinoma (resulting primarily from cigarette smoking) and the sharp decline in primary gastric carcinoma, little change has occurred in the incidences of major hu- man neoplasms within the past 20 years. Suggestions that within the next decade as many as 25% of all cancers will result from occupational exposure to environmental agents have not been substantiated epidemiologically. These claims are based largely on a variety of theoretical pro- jections. Although it is important to determine the most probable causes of cancer in humans with an aim of preventing this disease, it is very important to ensure that proposed preventive measures are based on scientific fact. We must not let the fear of cancer infect our society with a cancer of fear.

Inspired by the pho question below I decided to take the taitai to lunch. Looking for a never-tried pho place on Crenshaw north from Manhattan Beach Blvd, where there are several, I discovered a entire Viet shopping center.
In the small center are Hong Long Pho, Hong Long Banh Mi, and a supermarket with a steam counter that also sells banh mi.
We had lunch at the pho place where they were out of tendon so we settled for the rare flank pho. "Really cool" said the taitai! We also had the #52 grilled beef on bun. Also quite good and big.
In addition to the usual suspects (pho, bun, rice) they offered rice porridge which was labeled "chao". I assume it's similar to Chinese "zhou" but we didn't try it.
The market had an extensive steam table which looks like it might reward the adventurous chowhound. I just ordered iced coffee for 12 bits which was pretty good.
I looked at the menu at the banh mi place which seems like the real deal. I'll try later.
