Just about ready for prime time, the LED is lighting the way to what will become the greatest cost savings yet in household illumination.
Getting a boost from global warming and the need to squeeze more savings out of lighting in general, the tiny LED needs only to match upfront costs with its size to make its energy-efficient lighting technology more economically viable.
LED is short for "light emitting diodes", tiny devices that resemble a very small computer chip sandwiched within thin layers of glass or plastic. When charged with electricity the diode emits light.
LEDs were originally developed as a cheap, reliable solution for both indicator lamps and character displays, say on electronic devices, where they are still used. They are found in consumer electronics, motor vehicle dashboard displays, or any tiny, tight, enclosed area or component requiring a long lasting light source but is not readily suitable for disassembly, repair or replacement.
LEDs are also found in commercial signage and lighting, traffic lights, flashlights, nightlights, book lights as well as jumbo-trons, those massive video displays in Times Square and sporting arenas, according to American Lighting Association
Most LEDs are entering the home today as holiday decorations, small-area task or directional lighting, as well as new lighting fixtures and mainstream, screw-in replacements for compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and older incandescent bulbs. It's the mainstream screw-in and fixture replacement area were LED cost premiums create, at first glance, a cost barrier.
For example, a 60-watt incandescent bulb costs less than a buck while a comparable 2 watt LED light bulb, generating an equal level of lumens, costs more than $30.
But don't stop at the upfront cost of a single LED lamp to get a true comparison of the savings. Lamp life, electricity use, and maintenance costs over the expected life of the LED product also must be considered.
- LEDs don't have a filament. Instead of burning out they get progressively dimmer over time.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy good quality LEDs in properly designed fixtures can last as long as 50,000 hours. Some researchers say LED life can be double that. But even DOE's estimated LED lifespan, compared to an incandescent lamp that lasts only 1,000 hours, makes it much more affordable. If it takes 50 incandescent bulbs to match the lifespan of one LED, the replacement costs for the incandescent lamp, at $50, wind up costing more than LED lighting.
CFLs stack up better against LEDs, lasting up to 10,000 hours and larger fluorescent tubes and lamps in fluorescent fixtures can last up to 30,000 hours and more, but there's ballast replacement costs and maintenance to consider.
- Incandescent filament bulbs also waste energy generating heat to create light. Only about 5 to 10 percent of the energy consumed by filament bulbs is used to create light. Because LEDs have no filament they generate very little heat. A much higher percentage, 80 to 90 percent of the electrical power, goes directly to generating light in an LED.
Right now, that makes LEDs' energy efficiency on par with fluorescent lighting, according to the DOE. But fluorescent efficiency has just about capped out as LED research and development continues to improve efficiency. New generations of LED devices become available approximately every 4 to 6 months, according to the DOE.
- LED's are much more durable and resistant to vibrations and than both incandescent and fluorescent lamps which are prone to breakage, according to the New York State Electric & Gas Corporation. The corporation also said the life span of both fluorescents and incandescent bulbs are shortened by frequent on and off switching.
- Finally, aging baby boomers need more light with less glare and LED lights, which tend to focus and beam light with a reduced glare, fills the bill.
There are many larger energy guzzlers in the home. Lights only account for 25 percent of the home's electric bill, according to the American Lighting Association. But homeowners often tackle light efficiency first because it is energy use you can see, fixtures are easy to get at, change is generally cheap and the savings immediate.
Keep an eye out for LED advances.

Encountering problems with your floral arrangements for your wedding day?!
Fuss no further!
Here we have 15 tips to help you choose your florist designer and flowers, and get you into the swing of things!
Inspired by: https://www.theknot.com/content/top-10-expert-wedding-flower-tips
1. Do your research!
Research before making any rash decisions as you would with any other important things that need organising, such as finding a reliable doctor, making sure the country you're travelling to is safe before you buy tickets or choosing a school for your child.
Interview floral designers beforehand so you can be assured you are on the same page. the most important thing is that you are comfortable with the designer and that you feel you have a voice when it comes to designing. If you can make a connection with the floral designer they will be able to bring your vision to life, even if you can't articulate it or know nothing about flowers.
2. Go local
It's no surprise that in-season flowers are a fair amount cheaper than flowers you have to order specifically. Choosing your wedding flowers based on your wedding destination and date not only saves you money but is a great way to support your local florist. Local florists love having the control over the quality of the flowers they send out and they are genuinely thrilled to be able to help you out as it feels like they're sending their blooms right from their own gardens!
3. Design a doppelganger
You may be eyeing off those pricey hydrangeas and have a visual in your head, but have you ever thought that you could design something just like it with cheaper blooms?
Your florist can help you find a less-expensive look-a-like. Candice Ryan, a florist from Glenside, PA, says, "Carnations are lovely, accessible, inexpensive flowers that, when bundled, can mimic the ethereal, garden look of a hydrangea."
Creating a look-alike is a perfect way to save money and bring your vision to life!
4. Think outside the vase
Traditional round glass vases aren't your only option.
Want a unique centre-piece to catch everyone's eye?
Morocco-influenced urns, wooden boxes, tea cups and vintage vases that hold your floral designs can bring life to your overall set-up. Don't be afraid to mix and match; combining anything from thrift shops, things you find in your dusty garage and even family heirlooms can make a charming touch!
5. Not a flower person?
Don't force it! To jazz up your floral arrangements try adding feathers, buttons, decorative wire, ribbons, candy, paper birds, peacock feathers, succulents, seashells, branches, wheat grass, or even fruits and veggies like asparagus and pears for an eye-catching effect.
Branches of gum leaves and lavender can also be incorporated into your decorations.
6. Spruce up your succulents!
Succulents are crafty lil' plants that aren't extremely delicate! To add a little elegance to your bouquets, centrepieces or accents, coat your succulents with a couple layers of metallic spray paint! It will add a little bling to your floral arrangements and make your greenery stand out just that little bit more!
7. Pick a colour & design scheme, not a flower scheme
Any florist can come up with marvelous designs within your budget if you give them colours rather than "must-have flowers" that you specifically ask for.
If you are a bit hesitant to throw away your dream flower, don't drop out before they show you how some flowers can be swapped for others that may just look even better than you imagined!
8. Recycle your blooms
To cut costs you can make your gorgeous floral arrangements pull double duty! Place your arrangements in portable vases so you can reuse your ceremony flowers and set them up again at the reception. This way, you only need to ask your designer to do half the work and you only need to pay them for one lot of centre-pieces!
Another easy way to avoid buying extra blooms is to fill empty vases at your venue with yours and your bridesmaids bouquets! This way you don't have to carry them around everywhere and you will all know that they are safe as the night goes on!

9. Don't forget greenery
Foliage is your best friend. Incorporating foliage with unusual textures into your flower bunches can turn boring arrangements into stunning collections! Greenery helps fill out and thicken your arrangements so you aren't filling your vases with copious amounts of much more expensive blooms! It is also a lot cheaper than any flowers you'll find!
10. Make it personal
Select your wedding flowers for a reason. Do you have memories of your fiance bringing you pink roses? Does your grandmother grow carnations or waratah in her garden? Does your mom wear gardenia-scented perfume? Flowers should be chosen for a reason, not just for the colour! Make your floral arrangements not just beautiful, but special and close to your heart. It will make your day feel so much more personal and warm-hearted!
11. Put together a 'Vision Board' for your florist
Your florist cannot read minds. If you want something specific, you need to mention it. Put a few things together so you can give your designer a collection of things to use as a guide. Anything from colour swatches, magazine pictures, photos off websites or even giving them your favourite colour will help them wrap their heads around what YOU want.
12. 45° angle (you can finally make use of all those angles you learnt at school!)
To make your beautiful blooms last longer they need to be able to absorb water easily. When stems are cut flat they don't absorb much water, however if you cut your stems on a 45° angle they will definitely stay fresh and absorb as much water as they can!
13. DIY petal confetti
Instead of buying and wasting extra flowers, cut up the heads of the excess blooms you already ordered with scissors; put them in a bucket or fill paper cones with them for your guests to access when they want to throw confetti at you down the aisle!
14. Rose thorns
The princess never deserves to be pricked by a rose thorn!
If you decide to order roses and the florist you got them from hasn't de-thorned the rose stems yet, then it is up to you to keep your bride-to-be safe! To de-thorn them all you need is a cheap pocket sized $5 stem stripper/thorn stripper which has an sharp inner edge that you pull along the stems to strip off all the unwanted leaves and thorns from your gorgeous roses!
15. Floral ice-cubes
You know those horrid bars and restaurants that serve you glasses filled with ice rather than a beverage or the ice cubes just taste like chlorine? We've all been there! not to worry! You can make your own floral ice cubes or beg your venue to make them to add a floral accessory to their bar.
"Floral ice-cubes?!" You ask? the idea is, you don't consume them. they are simply prepared to add detail to the serving of your beverages.
To make them, you simply boil some water, wait for it to cool; press your desired petals into each mould and freeze until frozen.
This also works with other small flowers if you would rather the visual of whole blooms!

Government Matters
So, I used to work for now Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (pause for applause) back when he first arrived in Washington. Harry is a great guy, and I really liked working with him. I regard him as a centrist or conservative democrat, while I regard myself as a liberal democrat (if I'm a democrat at all), but we got along just fine.
Lately, I've been thinking a lot about how government matters. I have friends who don't vote, and I always think that's a bad idea. The main reasons they cite are:
One vote doesn't matter
Government doesn't matter
Religious grounds (devotion to secular matters is against their faith's teachings)
I respect the third reason (and wish our evangelical brothers and sisters would incorporate it into their zeal); I disagree with the first two.
The first I'll discuss some other time.
I want to focus on the second.
There are three things that are happening right now that really argue that government DOES matter. The first is the coal miner tragedy. The second is Abramoff scandal, and the third is the Alito nomination.
A few papers have discussed the link between cuts in federal programs designed to evaluate mine safety and increased risk for miners. I see this as analogous to the New Orleans levee and the impact of years of budget cuts on the levee's ability to withstand a storm. Today, I'm feeling charitable, so I won't blame the President for the deaths in West Virginia, but I do want to make the central point. Government matters. Government decisions make a real difference in people's lives. When you cut taxes to the rich and cut spending on mining inspections, THAT matters. If a city has fewer firefighters when a four alarm fire breaks out, that matters too. More houses burn. Property damage increases. Firefighter safety is compromised.
And Abramoff. I've been appalled by what I've read about his government for hire schemes. I regard Abramoff as an anti-democracy racist. What he has done to elect Republicans and to pass legislation has impacted lives, and he has undermined the entire legislative process and (even though intuitively we know that Washington is dirty) our faith in elected officials. When I read the list of elected officials donating dirty money to charity, I feel sick. I find myself thinking: government matters. We should treat it like it does. We should respect it more than we do.
And last, Alito. He sure seems to be a bright guy, and he's playing his cards really well. Give academic and boring/technical answers to questions you feel like answering – avoid controversy. Let's face it, the average American doesn't know what the 10th and 11th Amendments are, nevermind a dry monologue about their application to the commerce clause and what they suggest about the various powers of the various federal branches (be they executive, legislative or judicial). He dodged the abortion bullet, did the old thrust and parry whenever he was pressed for details around his ill-informed views on executive powers. But ideologues make poor justices (Scalia and Thomas are ill-suited to the bench because they are more interested in the application of a concept than in striving for intelligent and sensible outcomes. That's how you end up hunting with litigants and not appreciating why that matters. And by the way, for all their crowing about judicial activism, no one strikes down more legislation on constitutional grounds than Clarence Thomas (read about it here), and trust me on this – Alito is an ideologue. For those who don't think government matters my advice is this: the answer may come…if you replace a thoughtful jurist like Sandra Day O'Connor with an ideologue like Alito, you'll see first hand how government impacts the lives of everyday citizens. I hope we never learn that lesson as clearly as we might.
And this brings me full circle. The reason I started by talking about the Honorable Senator Harry Reid is because his leadership may see us through this.
And it's a complex question. Midterm elections are coming up, and taking down Alito will make it easy for Republicans to cast Democrats in an extremely negative light (and they lack scruples, so expect exaggerations and half-truths). Still and the same, Harry needs to lead us here and do what must be done.
Alito should not be approved. The Supreme Court matters and Government matters. Those who regard it as a plaything, or a joke or a place to test theories spun out at one Ivy League spot or another should not serve.
What we need is thoughtful, courageous leadership. Leadership divorced from money and all the ills it inspires.

Many have fallen victim to Opioids. Opioid prescriptions have quadrupled in the last twenty years making it the worst drug epidemic in United States history. Since 1999 there has been a 300% increase in opioid prescriptions. However, not many people are sure of the damages have been associated with the drug. Adults and children including babies in utero have been affected. Many babies that have been exposed to the drug have been diagnosed with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome, which can cause convulsions, vomiting, sweating and loss of appetite. It has been disclosed as of now that it is the leading cause of death in individuals that are under the age of 50. Even more disturbing is that 75% of addicts have reported that their first opioid was a prescription drug. Below are some but not all of the symptoms that the abuse of opioids has caused.
- Sweating
- Tremors
- Vomiting
- Lack of Appetite
- Dehydration
- Difficulty Sleeping
- Fever
- Convulsions
- Mottled Skin
- Diarrhea
- Death
With the opioid crisis at hand it has led to thousands of lawsuits and they are being filed against pharmaceutical companies, doctors, hospitals and pharmacies. Many of these lawsuits have been filed by states, municipalities and tribes of the Native Americans. Many have claimed that this epidemic has increased the drug crimes, the public health care and the overall general health of their communities. Many are looking for Opioid lawsuit loan because Below are just some of the big companies that are facing lawsuits due to Opioids.
- Walgreens
- Walmart
- Allergan
- Endo Pharmaceuticals
- Purdue Pharma LP
- Allergan
- Johnson & Johnson (along with its subsidiary's)
And many more.
Who are the ones that are filing these lawsuits? These lawsuits are being filed by the victims, the family of victims, cities, and counties. Below is a list of states that have filed opioid lawsuits
- West Virginia
- Texas
- Oklahoma
- North Carolina
- New Mexico
- Montana
- Mississippi
- Kentucky
- Delaware
- Alabama
- Florida
- Illinois
- Missouri
- New Hampshire
- Nevada

The effort continues to enhance Athearn Genesis models per customer requests and
feedback. There has been a lot of activity behind the scenes; we're excited to
include new features often requested, to the SDP45 and upcoming Genesis models.
Morrison-Knudsen was a major leaser of secondhand locomotives in the 80s and
90s. During this time, a group of ex-Conrail SDP45s were on the lease roster. MK
acquired these former CR SDP45s from VMV and they were leased to a variety of
railroads including the SP until 1996.
Although many of the former EL/CR SDP45s were rebuilt into SD40M-2s, a few were
not, and left as-is for the remainder of their service throughout the western
United States.
The Erie Lackawanna Railroad ordered 34 SD45Ms in 1969 and 1970. Intended for
freight service, these units had standard (angled) long hood ends, the extra
space aft of the radiators had concrete ballast. Their longer frames permitted a
larger fuel tank which gave the locomotives a greater range between fuel stops.

The Great Northern Railway purchased eight SDP45s in 1967 to replace F-units on
the Empire Builder. Normally paired back-to-back, they were also used singly
leading F-units. These joined six smaller SDP40 locomotives ordered in 1966 for
the Western Star. After the startup of Amtrak in 1971, Great Northern Railway
successor Burlington Northern Railroad converted all fourteen SDP locomotives to
freight service.
In the 1960s, railroads were looking to replace aging EMD E-units and Alco PAs
for passenger service. EMD responded by adding a steam generator compartment to
the long hood end of their SD45. This required a longer frame and resulted in
the creation of the SDP45. Three railroads originally purchased SDP45s: Southern
Pacific, Great Northern, and Erie Lackawanna. Over the decades, the SDP45s were
then acquired by other railroads through mergers, leasing companies, and rebuild

Skirting the edge sand
So when I was "skirting the edge" over the earlier part of June I was collecting sand samples from the beeches I stopped at. I felt like I drove past every beech and only stopped here and there, but now I have finished drying the sand and putting it all back in the collection pots (and overspill containers) I suddenly realised I had visited 68 beeches, which in 20 days of driving is still a fair stoppage rate!
Ignore the numbers on the pots, but notice in the following image, the two samples; one is Abercastle in Pembrokeshire (north coast) which is almost black, and the second that is nearly Orange / Yellow is Freshwater Bay West, also in pembrokeshire, but this time the west coast. Both are drying but the colours stand out very well when they are wet.
The second image is the full collection, all lined up ready for me to record onto a map, so I know where I stopped.
The plan is to put these into small glass jars and arrange as a display on a shelf somewhere. Not sure if I order by location, name or colour yet. More on that once I get to finding some jars of the right size. I need to get back to playing with cars don't I?

Whether e-mobility, ecological electricity or rapidly increasing digitalisation: energy is essential for the world of the 21st century. This makes it all the more important to put energy projects into practice in a sustainable and future-proof manner. The industry is strongly focussing on renewable energy types. In this respect, offshore wind farms seem a highly promising option and the construction of such offshore wind farms has been increasing considerably in the past years.
After the initial euphoria and the subsequent hype of offshore wind farms, reality has set in. Their implementation is not always easy. Wind farms are often caught between conflicting political demands and practical obstacles. One of these obstacles are the partially missing regulatory and approval standards that often result in long design and approval processes. In addition, the technical implementation is highly complex. Limited space and extreme weather conditions are only two of the major challenges for planners.
Why ARNDT IDC is the ideal partner for Offshore Projects
With its office in Hamburg, ARNDT IDC is close to the latest developments in the field of offshore wind energy. With our many years of experience, we can help you to fulfil the substantial approval requirements, and to co-ordinate the interests of the stakeholders in the difficult environment of an offshore project. ARNDT IDC offers goal-oriented and effective project management. We can assist you in co-ordinating and structuring these complex projects, so that you can achieve long-term and sustainable success.

What is your minimum wage in your musical career?
Do you have one? Why, in the USA, is there no minimum wage for musicians? In fact, much of the time musicians and artists are asked to pay for the privilege of working! They call that Pay to Play. This Pay to Play way is now making its way into other areas, touting themselves as music opportunities.
One example is in Music Sync. Music licensing for film and television.
These sites are popping up all over to make money off the hope of getting your music used in film or tv. The way it is usually set up you never know if anyone actually hears your music. There's generally no way to know if your music actually got pitched. So really you're paying for the hope that it might happen. You attach your music link and hit the five dollar button then wait for the response. You have just purchased hope, most likely nothing more. It's probably better to walk down to the Seven Eleven and give them your five dollars, buy a scratch ticket and hope that you win that. At least you know where your dollar went and you can see the proof.
The truth is, no service, no person, no music supervisor, creative agency, brand, show runner, director or executive producer, or anyone else who is worth dealing with would tell you that if you pay them money they'll get you a sync that's worth anything.
Music is placed because it is the right music to make, or enhance, the message, story or gaming experience.
I can't understand the logic of this except for seducing an artist into hope so one more startup can make a few bucks off people with dreams.
It's just about making money off the back of hope.

This Woman's Work
What an incredible dance performance the other night, on SYTYCD, to the song This Womans Work.
"This Woman's Work" is a song written and performed by the British singer Kate Bush. It was originally featured on the soundtrack of the American film She's Having a Baby (1988). The song was released as the second single from her album The Sensual World in 1989 and peaked at 25 in the UK singles chart (From Wikipedia)
Like "She's Having A Baby", the movie for which the song was written, the lyrics are about being forced to suddenly confront reality and adulthood in times of crisis. Director John Hughes uses the song during the film's dramatic climax, when Jake (Kevin Bacon) learns that the lives of his wife (Elizabeth McGovern) and their unborn child are in danger. As the song plays, we see a montage sequence of flashbacks showing the couple in happier times, intercut with shots of him waiting for news of Elizabeth and their baby's condition.
The version of the song that was featured on The Sensual World was re-edited from the original version featured on the film soundtrack.
The song was featured on the Felicity soundtrack, and has been used at key moments in episodes of Alias, Party of Five, Crossing Jordan, 7th Heaven and Without a Trace. It was used to promote the season opener of the 2007-2008 season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. Since 2006 the song has featured on two long-running TV adverts for the British charity the NSPCC. The 2007 Special Christmas edition of the Ricky Gervais comedy series Extras, which aired 16 December in the US on HBO and 27 December on BBC One in the UK, featured two scenes using the song as a soundtrack. Due to the songs inclusion in Extras, the song entered the UK chart once again in January 2008. In June 2008, the song was played at the beginning and end of an Emmerdale episode featuring a custody battle between two sets of parents.
In 1997, American R&B musician Maxwell covered the song for the release of his album MTV Unplugged. The artist later re-recorded the song in studio for his album Now (2001). This version of the song was released as the album's second single in 2001 and peaked in the US Billboard charts at #58 (Billboard Hot 100) and #16 (Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs). This version also appeared in the movie Love & Basketball, but was not included in its soundtrack.
The music video for "This Woman's Work", which was directed by Sanji, begins with pictures of Maxwell and his lover in black-and-white photography. One picture reveals that his lover has died. In the next scene, Maxwell sees his lover in the street and proceeds to confront her, but he falls through the street, and begins to drown. Maxwell then begins to swim across the street, and pulls himself up by holding on to the side walk. He then enters an almost-empty diner, where every one is waiting for a loved one. Throughout the music video, Maxwell sees his lover in practically every direction. The video is noted for its compelling special effects.
[edit]Use in popular culture
In Love and Basketball, the song is played as the main characters realize their true feelings and have sex. In the movie Stomp the Yard (2007), Columbus Short and Meagan Good kiss for the first time, when they decide to go out. Maxwell's version of the song was played in the background. It has been used three times in the US version of So You Think You Can Dance. The first time in an August 2006 episode, when contestant Allison Holker danced her final solo to the song. The second time in a July 2008 episode, when contestant Katee Shean danced her solo to the song. The third time in a July 2009 episode, for a contemporary routine by Tyce Diorio for Melissa Sandvig and Ade Obayomi, depicting a woman's struggle with breast cancer.

I actually like Bush in her more whimsical moments, but poignancy is important too. I really liked teh dance--the agression, the "dialogue" between the dancers, etc..

Get Healthy: Healthy Diet
Eating a healthy diet is possibly the single most important thing you can do for your health. Do you know what and how much to eat? NBC Learn, in partnership with Centene Corporation, takes a look at which foods are essential to a growing body and what happens to the food once you eat it.
Get Healthy -- Healthy Diet
MORGAN RADFORD reporting:
Hi there guys, I'm Morgan Radford and it's time to get healthy!
Did you know that people in the Middle Ages actually used to eat moose nose and spoiled milk because they thought it was good for them? Well, lucky for you and for me, we know a lot more about nutrition now. You probably hear that word "nutrition" often and it just means eating a diet that's healthy for you. If this comes to mind when you hear that, don't even go there because it's not that bad. In fact, lots of healthy foods also taste pretty good. But do you know which foods make up a good diet?
Dr. KEN YAMAGUCHI: I'm Dr. Ken Yamaguchi. I am the Sam and Marilyn Fox Distinguished Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Washington University School of Medicine, and I am the executive vice president and chief medical officer for Centene Corporation. A healthy diet is a diet that gives you the necessary calories to do all your activities, not more calories than you need and it has a good representation of the five major food groups.
RADFORD: Five major food groups. Do you know what they are?
YAMAGUCHI: Fruits and vegetables, proteins, fats and grains.
RADFORD: So you know what fruits and veggies are. Eat more vegetables than any other food group. As for grains, you can find whole grains in many cereals and breads. Now, can you name some healthy proteins? If you thought of eggs, fish, you're on the right track. But there are also a lot more, like other meats, nuts and milk. All things your school cafeteria probably offers.
Dr. GLORIA WILDER: I'm Dr. Gloria Wilder. I am president and CEO of Core Health and Wellness Centers and I'm also vice president of innovation and preventive health for Centene Corporation. And everybody calls me Dr. G. Most of the stuff you eat should either come from your school if you're eating the school lunch program or the school breakfast program or it should come from your parents, all right.
RADFORD: You actually do need some fat. Just make sure it's healthy fat from foods like avocado, cheese, and those eggs again, yogurt, and even dark chocolate, but be careful with that one.
YAMAGUCHI: A healthy diet also means not eating too much of what's unhealthy, which means trying to avoid things that are very high calorie and have a lot of simple sugars and a lot of salt.
RADFORD: That means limit the amount of that dark chocolate. The sugar you sprinkle on foods and even those sugary drinks like fruit juice or soda. And fast food, that should really just be a rare treat, if you eat it at all.
WILDER: Just remember that you don't want to become a chicken nugget kid and French fry kid. If all you eat is chicken nuggets and French fries, you're going to grow up looking like a chicken nugget and a French fry.
RADFORD: That's right! Good nutrition not only makes you feel better, it makes you look better. Your skin and hair, it'll glow from all those vitamins that make their way into your system.
YAMAGUCHI: When you eat something, you first break it down in your mouth with your teeth, and you kind of break it down into smaller and smaller pieces. So when it goes into your stomach, it's bathed in acid which gets rid of any bacteria that would be bad. And then it goes into your intestines and at that point there's a lot of things called enzymes that are released that help break down all this food into the small building blocks.
RADFORD: Those building blocks are the vitamins and the nutrients you need to stay alive. Your blood takes them and delivers them to the areas of your body where they're needed. It's actually a pretty involved process every single time you take a bite. So what can happen to your body if you have poor nutrition?
WILDER: Let's talk about junk, all right. You put yourself at risk of getting diabetes, right, or being overweight and not being able to do the stuff you really want to do. You may feel like you lose energy really quickly.
RADFORD: So here are just a few things to remember. If you start eating a healthy diet now, you're setting up a good habit that you can follow throughout life
YAMAGUCHI: Who wouldn't rather have more energy, feel better about themselves, be in a better mood and look better?
RADFORD: Mix it up. You don't have to eat the same old fruits and veggies every single day. You can be adventurous and try some of the other vegetables your school cafeteria offers. And also, don't overeat. When you're eating a meal or a snack, when you get about half way through, ask yourself whether you need to eat that second half. Making these small changes to your diet will help you live a longer, healthier life.
New dietary guidelines: lean meat OK, cut the added sugars
WASHINGTON — Some Americans might not have to cut back on eggs and salt as much as they once thought, and eating lean meat is still OK. But watch the added sugars, especially the sugary drinks.
The Obama administration's new dietary guidelines, released Thursday, Jan. 7, back off the strictest sodium rules included in the last version, while still asserting that Americans consume too much salt. The guidelines reverse previous guidance on the dangers of dietary cholesterol and add strict new advice on sugars.

Betty Woodman and Kiki Smith
Galleria Lorcan O'Neill – Rome
Through November 26, 2016
In Rome? If so, its your last chance to catch the exhibition of two great American artists: KIKI SMITH and BETTY WOODMAN Galleria Lorcan O'Neill in Rome through Saturday. Friends for decades and now showing together for the first time, Smith and Woodman share an affinity with Italy and have chosen Rome to present their work in a double solo show which includes tapestry, sculpture, ceramics, painting, and drawing.
For the past three decades Kiki Smith has explored the philosophical, social, and spiritual aspects of human existence. Her works are deeply rooted in the mythological, religious, and storytelling realms and evoke the cycle of life through a spiritual and carnal vision which brings together the animal and human worlds. Wolves, deer, foxes, and birds inhabit the works in show which include large-scale tapestries, delicate bronze sculptures, and elegant drawings and become the protagonists in this story of mortality, reproduction, and decay.
The works on display by Betty Woodman (a member of SACI's Artists and Designers Council) are the recent outcome of a decades-long study, beginning in her earlier years producing functional pottery objects which were gradually enriched by her deep relationship with painting and progressively developing over time into a study of interaction with space, both real and pictorial. In building a context for the works, mixing surface and form, Woodman has produced four large three-dimensional works present in the exhibition: unstretched canvases simply mounted on the wall and accompanied by ceramic sculptures either fixed to the canvas or placed in front. Also on show is a series of works on paper where ceramic objects such as vessels, both archetypical symbols and objects of everyday use, are depicted in lively colours using a variety of techniques.

Vicolo Dei Catinari, 3 – Roma, Italy
Hours: Tuesday to Saturday 11am – 7pm

single-family residential
These six starter homes located in the Morningside subdivision of Mobile were provided for a local non-profit and partially funded with HUD HOME program funds.
Each building is roughly 1,300 sf and has three bedrooms and two bathrooms along with a good sized yard which backs up onto a creek. A local beaver was often spotted during construction and is probably sour about having new neighbors.
Project completed in early 2013.

Popular rock group, Paramore, performed in Columbus at Express Live Thursday night for the latest stop on their "After Laughter Summer Tour."
Going into the show, my expectations were very high. Not because of any past performances I've seen of the band, but because this was my first experience at a Paramore show – a band I've loved for about a decade now.
From playing their songs on "Guitar Hero" using expert difficulty, to binge-watching all their music videos on Youtube back in middle school, I was ready for the experience of a lifetime, and I was not disappointed.
As soon as Paramore hit the stage, the crowd erupted as they performed a medley of "Grudges," "Still Into You" and "Rose-Colored Boy." Even though the official members of the band are lead singer Hayley Williams, drummer Zac Farro and guitarist Taylor York, the band performed with four other supporting musicians who honestly elevated the set and shined during numerous solos and music breaks.
As beloved and popular as Williams is, I didn't know what to expect from her, but she was a big ball of energy throughout, and her vocals didn't slip once throughout the two-hour set. Paramore has been touring since 2005, with all members under the age of 30, and even though they have the energy of a young, upcoming band, they perform with the confidence of a seasoned veteran group, which impressed the hell out of me.
However, long before the band hit the stage, the crowd was treated to opening acts, Nashville-based band Soccer Mommy, whose set I completely missed, and Foster the People.
I've never been a fan of Foster the People, but their set was solid as they ran through songs like "Helena Beat," "Sit Next to Me" and "Pumped Up Kicks." Moreover, lead singer Mark Foster, had a lot of energy and was very charismatic, hopping between different guitars and keyboards effortlessly.
However, towards the end of their set, it was pretty obvious from the energy that most people in the crowd were ready for the headlining act.
For every minute Paramore was on stage, there was never a dull moment throughout the show — whether York ripped through guitar solos with the manic energy of a madman, letting a fan hop on stage and sing the last verse of "Misery Business" or Williams screaming the lyrics of "Ignorance" to the crowd through a megaphone.
However, it wasn't all high-energy solos and mosh pits.
After a quick intermission, the band brought out stools to the front of the stage and sat down for an intimate mini-acoustic set.
They performed deep cut, "Misguided Ghosts" and "26" to sea of phone-lit LED flashlights. However, the highlight was the performance of their viral cover of Drake's "Passionfruit." They also even nodded to the ghostwriting controversy around him.
"We didn't write this, but we wish we did," Williams said jokingly. "I'm not even sure if Drake wrote this whole song himself."
After the acoustic set, the band went back to performing high-energy cuts like "Idle Worship," "Ain't it Fun" and "Caught in the Middle."
Before the band closed out their set with "Told You So" and "Hard Times," Williams explained how they wrote the album from a really sad and hurt place, but touring those songs have brought nothing but happiness and joy to the band.
"Whatever pain is in your life right now, just know that it does pass because feelings are temporary," Williams said.
And as a Paramore fan, I couldn't have taken away a better message.

The phrase "off-the-grid" used to evoke visions of rustic cabins out in the wilderness somewhere. No more. As more and more people install home solar systems, they are starting to realize their ability to generate enough power to handle most, if not all of their electricity needs.
The main issue with solar has been power usage at night. When the sun goes down, your solar panels produce nothing. The solution is, of course, a battery system. With big-minds like Elon Musk entering the field, there's little doubt this is the solution. But until now, complicated installations, expensive electrical contractors, and permit requirements have kept this option either too expensive or too complex for most homeowners.
Enter the Orison – the first home battery system that's truly plug & play. You just plug it into your outlet, and it charges itself. If there's an outage, or you want to pop off the grid, it sends power back through your system to meet your power needs. What could be easier?
Listen in as I speak with Orison creator Eric Clifton about the development of his new battery, and how he partnered with Melanie Venter at Venter PR, to bring it to life on Kickstarter.

Why Hire a Car Accident Injury Lawyer?
If you have suffered an injury due to the negligent driving of someone else, you have rights under the law to file a Personal Injury lawsuit. Hiring an experienced car accident injury attorney will help protect your legal rights, so you do not end up paying for someone else's careless driving behavior.
Here are the top 5 reasons to hire an attorney after falling victim to negligent driving:
Proving Liability
Proving someone else was liable for your accident is not always easy, even with potential witnesses and police reports. Hiring an attorney who understand the law and the process of proving liability, will help support your position.
Understanding Settlement Options
Many cases will settle outside of the courtroom, meaning your settlement offer will more than likely come from the negligent party's insurance company. Your lawyer will be able to explain the settlement before you make the decision to accept the offer. In some cases, settling is not always the best option.
Filing a Lawsuit
Filing a lawsuit against the at-fault driver will require you to file the appropriate papers in court. Doing this alone is not a simple task. There are some complex rules that will need to be followed and paperwork that will need to be submitted at a particular time. You will need an attorney by your side to guide you through this complicated legal process.
Proving Your Case
Just like filing a lawsuit, proving your case is even more complex. There could be information that you are limited too, as well as, the types of witnesses and evidence that you can present. Typically, if you are trying to prove your case to the court or jury, extensive legal research will need to be done making it extremely hard to prove a personal injury liability case without legal representation.
Financial Loss
If you miss any deadlines, sue for the wrong damages, and lose your case . As a result, you will also lose your chance at recovering compensation for your injuries and the damages that you suffered. Now you will have court fees to pay along with your medical bills and any other damages accumulated.
The Atlanta Car Accident Injury Attorneys at Our Georgia Law Offices, have the experience necessary to prove liability, help you understand settlement offers, file a lawsuit, prove your case, and help you receive all the compensation you deserve for the injuries and damages suffered.
Our expert lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means there is no up-front cost to you. We get paid when your case is won.
If you have suffered from a Car Accident Injury in Georgia, do not hesitate to contact our office today for a free case review to see how we can best help you!

During the day, your guide will escort you on private visits and tastings to two leading boutique bodegas. We will better understand your wine knowledge and interests to ensure we select the most appropriate bodegas. At the majority of bodegas, our clients are hosted by the winemaker or owner, but a number of these individuals do not speak English in which case your guide will serve as the translator. While it is too early to confirm specific bodega visits, examples of bodegas that you might visit include Remirez de Ganunza, home to some of the best Tempranillo vineyards in La Rioja. Wine guru Robert Parker recently awarded a perfect 100 rating to the Remirez Gran Reserva 2004. Another client favourite is Casa Primicia, a relatively-new boutique bodega located in one of Laguardia's oldest civic buildings in the fully-restored cellars of a centuries-old bodega. As with all these private visits, you will learn about the bodega's story and its wine from a key player followed by private tastings that we have organized on your behalf. Lunch with wine pairings, which is included today, will be at Hector Oribe, one of the area's top restaurants, which features innovative Riojan cuisine.
Depart La Rioja and continue 1 hr 20 mins to Bilbao. Accommodations: Gran Hotel Domine, a stylish and contemporary property overlooking the Guggenheim Museum.

Part 9 of the Community Empowerment Act refers to Allotments and food growing.
It requires local authorities to maintain waiting lists and take reasonable steps to provide allotments if the waiting lists exceed certain trigger points. It also strengthens the protection for allotments and clarifies the rights of local authorities and plot holders.
There is also a requirement for local authorities to develop a food growing strategy for their area, including identifying land that may be used as allotment sites and identifying other areas of land that could be used by a community for the cultivation of vegetables, fruit, herbs or flowers.
The Government are currently consulting on Guidance for Local Authorities to assist them in carrying out their duties under Part 9 of the Act, this covers allotments and the development of Food Growing Strategies. For full details of the consultation and how to respond, click here.

Leaders at Islamic Centers in the region said security has been heightened at their facilities following the attack on American diplomatic personnel in Libya that they described as "outrageous and disgusting."
Dr. Inayat Malik, president of the Islamic Center of Greater Cincinnati, called Ambassador Chris Stevens "a brave diplomat," who was a friend of Libya. He said the attack was the work of "a small savage group," not the people or the government of Libya.
Malik described security at his mosque as "the highest since the Sept. 11 attacks" when it was common to see West Chester Twp. police officers in the parking and in the Interstate 75 median.
"But security can only go so far," he said.
He and other Islamic leaders in the region started conversations with their local police departments following attacks on American mosques this summer, including the burning of the Islamic Society of Joplin in Missouri.
The Dayton Mercy Society Islamic Center of Dayton is kept locked during non-prayer times.
"We were just concerned," said Dr. Niaz Usman, president of the Miamisburg mosque.
Originally from India, Usman said those who worship at his center hail from a number of countries. It has not experienced any significant threats in its five year history.
"We have a good relationship with the neighborhood," Usman said.
Dr. Esman H. Alkhawaga said the U.S. anti-Islam film that sparked protest throughout the Middle East and North Africa is not worthy of attention.
"It was made by an extremist and the response was from other extremists," he said. "Emotions are high and people are following this herd mentally."
He said forces inside of the countries impacted - particularly his homeland Egypt – want to stop progress and are exploding the situation.
"They don't want this country to succeed," he said. "There is a lot of deception behind this."
Alkhawaga thinks the unrest will soon end.
"Clearly it (the film) was something done for some sort of incitement of violence," he said. "I think wise people on every side need to realize that."
Many people in the Middle East are trying to deal with new freedoms, Alkhawaga said.
"I think the outcome of the revolutions will be more towards a democracy," he said. "The people will have peaceful coexistence with the countries around them."
Karen Dabdoub, Council on American Islamic Relations' executive director for Cincinnati and Southern Ohio, said she has not heard of local threats.
"We've definitly been telling people to be aware of their surroundings," she said. "Ever since 9/11, the situation has been getting worse. People are accustom to that and deal with it. Keep your eyes and ear and open just in case."

FARMERS have revealed a list of items most wanted by criminals in the Cheshire countryside.
An investigation from NFU Mutual insurance company, backed by Cheshire Constabulary, has underlined the problems facing the farming community.
Quad-bikes, tractors and power tools represent the top three stolen items claimed for by victims.
Also on the list are vehicles, trailers, fuel, scrap metal, lawnmowers, tools, horse tack and livestock.
This week, farms in Mickle Trafford and Guilden Sutton were hit by thieves, with a land rover and a tractor among a long list of valuable items.
In Dodleston, scrap metal was taken during the early hours of Monday.
There has been a rise in thefts from farms across rural Cheshire committed, according to police, by gangs travelling into the county from neighbouring areas including Merseyside, North Wales and the West Midlands.
In January and February this year, farms in Tarporley, Cotebrook, Utkinton, Kelsall, Malpas and Nomansheath all reported trailer thefts.
Insp Phil Hodgson, who leads the Western Rural Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: "The list of property that has been stolen has correlation with the items that we receive reports of and clearly there is a lucrative market for these types of equipment.
"I see this report as an affirmation of what the police and farming community already know and I see offences against farming communities as being a priority. This serves as a reminder that we need to work together to tackle rural crime."
Farmers also confirmed that increasing security on their farms was the number one priority in tackling the rise in farming thefts and that those crimes being committed were planned rather than opportunist.
Insp Hodgson added: "I am pleased that the farming community recognise that they need to help themselves by increasing security at their premises as I have lost count of the times that valuable pieces of equipment are reported stolen with no identification markings or tracker devices attached to them."

As day three has come to a close in Austin, here are some of the key takeaways from our rock star crew of Mindshare SXSW beat writers as we strive to bring you the highlights from the day.
What is the Future of Sports VR?
This panel discussion was led by Eugene Wei from Oculus and Jeff Marsilio of the NBA, who recently produced a first-of-its-kind VR documentary around the 2016 NBA Playoffs. The 25-minute piece has been hailed as the "next step in VR storytelling" and it represented an opportunity to capture moments that fans were not exposed to on TV.
Eugene opened the session talking about the value of experience versus the story, and posing the question: what can be added by bringing in VR? To date, VR content has focused more on experiences naturally as the core strength of the technology, but there's a lot of white space to add more story to future content. As he put it, "VR needs narrative, and it needs reoccurring narrative." The duo also touted VR as another means to create social connection in real-time. The NBA and Oculus plan to evolve their relationship to produce live games in VR in the future, and the NBA sees this as a way to reach fans in foreign markets with passionate followings, giving them the closest product to the arena experience from afar.
From my perspective, as teams and leagues further examine how to monetize VR technologies, it will be interesting to see if the technology itself becomes a corrosive agent within the ecosystem of sports. Teams want to fill seats and are looking at VR as a way to enhance the in-arena experience. Leagues want to grow revenue through audience growth and can most effectively achieve this at scale through TV distribution. Right now, VR technologies are in the works attempting to replicate the courtside seat experience in your own home, providing fans with a more authentic experience and access to behind-the-scenes content occurring outside of fan sightlines (such as LeBron James pumping up his team in the stadium tunnel). The hardware adoption is the immediate challenge for VR, but when they solve for this and these platforms scale up, it will be interesting to see just what impact the technology has on fan behavior.
The Future of Luxury
This was the first panel of the day and it did not disappoint. The conversation began around the evolution of status, and how consumers are redefining what this means to each of us today. Fiona Pargeter, who heads up Global PR Communications for Jaguar Land Rover, explored the historical meaning of status being defined by wealth, and how we're starting to see social standing playing a bigger role today, especially in the form of philanthropy and giving back.
The panelists also talked about the role social media has played in how we classify ourselves and how experiences are becoming more valuable to consumers. Given that shift, brands like Jaguar Land Rover and Diageo have driven experiential marketing programs that go beyond addressing just a need or a want, but give customers an experience that can become a lifetime memory. Morgan Spurlock of Super Size Me fame was also on the panel and he introduced the point of how luxury brands continue to look for ways to expand the reach in the market place by creating affordable products for those that may not be able to afford premium goods, status symbols have never been more affordable.
Keynote Speaker Jessica Shortall
Jessica Shortall is the founder of Texas Competes, an advocacy group for LGBTQ rights in Texas that uses data to drive her mission. She considers herself a "bridge builder," using this data and cultural insights to reach across the aisle to solve problems. She gave a passionate speech about the economics, data, and ultimately motivations to dehumanized transgenders; how important it is to understand that each side of the discussion truly believes that they're doing what's right.
Jessica believes in fighting discrimination with data-driven discussions. She shared some inspirational words including, "If you're not loving past your comfort zone, keep going" and stats as it relates to suicide rates of transgenders (41%) in context to the general population (2%). A couple of other compelling quotes from Jessica included "Data is how I do my job. Love is why I do my job" and "Fear can convince us that walls are a form of love, but radical and sometimes scary love can open hearts." Ultimately, it was a relevant discussion for brands to consider as they look to be adaptive in social equity conversations.

"The shift in how search engines treat keywords is significant. They tend to ignore the keyword meta tag and rather look for keywords in the actual page content. This means that you need to figure out your keywords before you write any content. Then, you include them throughout your content, particularly in headings and summaries." (Gerry McGovern)
XIAatUT: An Extreme Makeover
"This presentation will discuss the process of designing the research portal of the web site, with emphasis on the lessons learned by the XIA development team." (Jill Burkart et al.) – courtesy of ia summit blog
Conducting Inherent Value Testing
"We've found having a focus works better than just a random tour without any focus. We get to see how users work with the site as they discuss it. Their commentary is easier to understand and more accurately represents true issues with the site." (Jared Spool – UI Engineering)
The Sad State of Web Content
"Content still is king of the Web and the designers, developers and producers of the Web should be the king's loyal subjects. Trust me, it's in our best interests." (D. Keith Robinson – Asterisk)
Röyksopp: Remind me
Before Tom Chi and KC did the world's first HCI rap 'We Got It', MTV did information graphics. (astralwerks)
Design Matters
"Design matters. It matters in everyday life. It matters in everything we consume or use. It matters in every human endeavor. Without design and those people that commit their lives to its practice, the world that would result from that absence would be an intolerable place to live." (Andrei Herasimchuk – Design by Fire)
Wizards and Guides: Principles of Task Flow for Web Applications 2/2
"Although wizards are a common feature of the interface landscape, their rigidity clearly runs counter to one of the basic tenets of user-centered design: providing the user with appropriate control over the interaction. Therefore, like the pointy-hat mystics for whom they're named, wizards should generally be treated with suspicion and skepticism, and ideally avoided whenever possible." (Bob Baxley – Boxes and Arrows)
How Would You Redo the Google Interface?
Four designers share their (re)visions (Wired) – courtesy of lawrence lee
User-Centered Information Retrieval
"To find information, a reader uses either a search engine or the reader browses through metadata. The main difference between search engines and metadata lies in the quality of the links. A search engine offers you a lot of results, yet quite a few of the results refer to unusable information. Metadata cover only a small part of the available information yet the links refer to very useful information." (Marcel van Mackelenbergh)
Living with topic maps and RDF
"This paper is about the relationship between the topic map and RDF standards families. It compares the two technologies and looks at ways to make it easier for users to live in a world were both technologies are used. This is done by looking at how to convert information back and forth between the two technologies, how to convert schema information, and how to do queries across both information representations. Ways to achieve all of these goals are presented." (Lars Marius Garshol – ontopia) – courtesy of peter van dijck
Design Patterns: An Evolutionary Step to Managing Complex Sites
"(…) a problem that many of our clients are facing and they've tried a myriad of solutions, such as centralized approval processes, standardized templates, and style guides, all without success. However, the one solution that really excites us is now gaining a lot of attention — design patterns." (Jared M. Spool – UI Engineering)
List of articles about writing web content
"High quality web content impresses people and search engines." (Quality Web Content) – courtesy of craig marion

"Architect of six different news services for print and broadcast graphics, George has spent his career fine-tuning the craft of visual reporting, discovering talented people and starting business from scratch. Oh … and he invented the USA Today weather map. Find out what makes him tick and what he's done for the field of visual journalism." (Poynter online) – courtesy of interactive narratives
Access to a Unified Web from Any Device in Any Context by Anyone
"A few years ago, virtually the only way to access the Web was through a personal computer or workstation. True, there were variations between the facilities offered by various browsers, some being capable of use on text-based terminals. However, almost invariably, Web access, for individuals without specific accessability needs, involved using a machine with a reasonably large, color display with full graphic capabilities. While this is still primarily true, since the middle of 2000, the number of different kinds of device that can access the Web has grown from a small number with essentially the same core capabilities to many hundreds with a wide variety of different capabilities. At the time of writing, mobile phones, smart phones, personal digital assistants, interactive television systems, voice response systems, kiosks and even certain domestic appliances can all access the Web." (W3C)
Web Content Design
"What makes Web content effective? You'll find the answer here. Learn the basics of information design, Web writing style, and content maintenance." (Mazzie Ballheim)
Usability: Drawing Outside the Lines
"As Web design and development become wider in scope, individual topics within it become equally deeper. Usability has become its own depth area over the past few years, largely due to the influence of usability 'Thought Leaders' attempting to create better interactive Web sites for site visitors." (Molly Holzschlag – informIT) – courtesy of andrew fernandez
Press releases are awful web content
"In the hierarchy of content, the press release is a bottom feeder. It is a single cell organism. In fact, it was never meant to see the light of day. To most people, reading a press release is about as interesting as reading a parking fine. And yet press releases proliferate on the Web." (Gerry McGovern)
The Page Paradigm
"In my nine years of working on the Web's user experience, a lot has changed online – but one thing that hasn't changed much is the way that users navigate websites." (Mark Hurst – Good Experience)
Influence of Training and Exposure on the Usage of Breadcrumb Navigation
"Recent studies have shown that while the use of breadcrumb trails to navigate a website can be helpful, few users choose to utilize this method of navigation. This study investigates the effects of 'mere exposure' and training on breadcrumb usage. Findings indicate that brief training on the benefits of breadcrumb usage resulted in more efficient search behavior." (Spring S. Hull – SURL 6.1) – courtesy of lucdesk
Interactivity and MultiMedia Interfaces
"Multimedia technology offers instructional designers an unprecedented opportunity to create richly interactive learning environments. With greater design freedom comes complexity. The standard answer to the problems of too much choice, disorientation, and complex navigation is thought to lie in the way we design the interactivity in a system." (David Kirsh)
