Blue Silence
Blue Silence is the first ever recording of the complete works for string quartet by Elena Kats-Chernin. Elena Kats-Chernin is possibly Australia's most popular composer. In a recent public poll of music from the past 100 years conducted by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, her Eliza Aria was one of the highest-ranking Australian compositions. Eliza Aria is included on this new release. In the UK, it is particularly well-known as the theme music for Lloyds TSB's television campaign For The Journey that began in 2007 and continues today. As you can hear on this album, Elena's tuneful music combines lightheartedness with melancholy, blended with elements of cabaret, tango, ragtime, klezmer and Bach.
Acacia Quartet met Elena at a concert in 2011 and a great rapport was struck up. Acacia decided to learn all of Elena's quartet music (so far about 90 minutes, and counting), rehearse it extensively with her and perform it in concerts, then recording it under her supervision. Blue Silence was nominated for an APRA-AMCOS Art Music Award in 2013.

An Aids Activist's memoir in music
"In the years 1991-1996 I was an AIDS activist. Those years were the height of the epidemic, but also the journey to the crisis' end. I saw AIDS transformed from a frightening, near-universally fatal illness to what it is today, a chronic manageable condition. This transformation took place within a mere two decades of identifying HIV. In the history of medicine, there had never been progress made at such speed with a disease that was, frankly, so paralyzingly dazzling in its complexity. During those years, I'd given up music to be an activist. But a composer is always a composer. I did sketch a lot of music. The music were my diaries, a way of writing down feelings. As a composer I think of music as the sound that feelings make. Some twenty years after these events, I started turning the sketches into performable pieces of music, a process I imagine is the same as when someone turns diary entries into a memoir. Strictly speaking, the work is not what's called program music, or music that depicts events or a narrative. Every now and there, there is some overt representation (the police whistles, for instance) but mostly it is music that I wrote when I was reflecting on the day's events or even music to comfort myself. The best way to describe the music is to say it's what got written at the time all these things were happening." – Lyle Chan

dancing with somebody
Joe Twist's Dancing with Somebody is a musical celebration of the life, music and persona of diva sensation Whitney Houston, one of my favourite pop artists. Embedded subtly within the work's thematic language are fragments of her hit tunes The Greatest Love of All and I Wanna Dance With Somebody. This string quartet explores Whitney's rise to stardom and glamour, her superstar talent and prowess, as well as her gradual decline from grace, her struggle with drugs and her eventual, tragic death. The overriding musical character of Dancing with Somebody is ironically jovial and buoyant. Despite this, the work juxtaposes light-hearted music with moments of eerie grotesqueness, culminating in an intense 'dance macabre' with allusions to heavy metal and dub-step. These musical juxtapositions might be considered as a reflection of society's flippant, hedonistic obsession with tabloid scandal and rumour, overshadowing the celebrity's raw talent, potential and humanity. Ultimately, Dancing with Somebody expresses my admiration of Whitney's unforgettable voice, her enchanting persona, and the lasting impact of her legacy on millions of people around the world.

Letter from the Head of School
Welcome! You have discovered a JK-8 school unlike any other in the area! At Burgundy, intellectual excitement and joy in learning are not buzzwords but realities! Our students often are sad when vacation times arrive because they LOVE school at Burgundy.
Burgundy students love school because we understand and honor children's love of learning. Students' love of learning remains high year after year as we continue to nurture students' natural curiosity about the world, people, and living things around them.
It all begins with the individual learner. We treat children like the unique and whole persons they are; we strive to meet them where they are developmentally. The foundation for success is this: We respect and build on children's lived experience, ensuring that each child feels welcomed and part of a learning community, supported, engaged, and challenged to grow and learn.
Our campuses are an essential component of the Burgundy Advantage.
At our Alexandria campus, a former dairy farm, every indoor learning area opens to outdoor space and woods. Nature is our laboratory for hands-on science and an ideal setting for active learning projects, whether at the Barn, pond, or stream in Alexandria, or at our 500-acre Burgundy Center for Wildlife Studies in West Virginia. Our Alexandria campus includes a one-of-a-kind Discovery Playground and other unique outdoor learning structures and spaces. The new Logan Loft is an incredible arts and community center featuring our theater, numerous arts classrooms and gallery space. The Logan Loft front porch and the adjacent campus commons welcome all to Burgundy and provide lovely spaces for meeting, having coffee or a reception, playing, or just reading a book or having a conversation.
The Burgundy Family, like our campus, is a diverse, interesting, beautiful, colorful tapestry. Our students, nearly 40% from diverse backgrounds, learn to be proud of their differences and interested in their commonalities and differences, because our diversity makes us collectively stronger. Our graduates are confident, articulate students who are comfortable in their own skins. Burgundy alumni thrive in a range of exceptional college preparatory high schools and universities, where they are well known, and they enter a range of professions.
At the core of our program's success are:
- A challenging, engaging, integrated, and well rounded academic and co-curricular program;
- Excellent teachers who know and love their students and their craft; and
- A close educational collaboration between families and the school.
At Burgundy, we live, as we have for more than 70 years, the tenets of holistic, student-focused, progressive education. We have always taught the whole child. Many schools today avow student-centeredness and individualized instruction, diversity and multiculturalism, and environmental and global awareness as central to their missions. At Burgundy, these values were cornerstones of our school's founding, and we continue to model them!
We invite you to visit our unique Alexandria campus to experience for yourself the magic of Burgundy!
Jeff Sindler
Head of School

Welcome to Cloud9 Aerials, The go-to company for professional, affordable video-production services.
A bit about the company:
Cloud9 Aerials was founded upon the grounds of the love of flying and technology. From an early age I have always been fascinated by flying, the most exciting times growing up were family holidays abroad, stepping onto the mammoth jets, taking our seats and pretending that me and my brother were the pilots, mimicking the controls of the throttle as we launched across the runway until the jet's wheels finally left the floor.
As I was grew older, this fascination continued. Throughout the years my dad kindly bought both me and my younger brother RC Model Planes that we absolutely loved, until they met they're end as they plummeted into near by fields… Nevertheless, it was all good fun and great practice for what would emerge in the coming years, DRONES!
Within the last 5 – 6 years, these amazing, futuristic, intelligent, sensor packing, camera wielding bits of kit have been flowing into the consumer market; with the last 3 years proving them to be more popular than ever. Which leads me onto the first drone I ever bought, the DJI Phantom 2. I took the plunge and spent my savings on the newest drone at the time from DJI, a simple drone with a 3-axis gimbal that held a GOPRO camera. Best. Purchase. Ever. It was from this moment on that I knew I wanted to keep flying these things, filming as much as I can with them. Without going into it too much, I took the drone on every holiday I ever went on and filmed whenever I could; meaning that over the years I had quite the collection of useable aerial footage.
Newest showreel including camera operation, editing, cinematography and aerial videography can be seen here:

Flunking The Lagrange Point Challenge
Rejected by modern science, the geocentric theory (in Greek, ge means earth), which maintained that Earth was the middle of the universe, dominated historic and medieval science. The debate relating to the worth of each of these teams originated with Perlmutter, who prompt that an MNC can hold an ethnocentric, polycentric or geocentric managerial orientation. If you recall from our previous discussion, the retrograde motions of the planets are very advanced; subsequently, Ptolemy had to create an equally advanced mannequin as a way to reproduce these motions.
In the early 17th century, Galileo's observations utilizing the newly invented telescope started to trigger problems for the geocentric model. Throughout the Middle Ages, small discrepancies between the predictions of the Ptolemaic model and reality have been fastened by the addition of more epicycles. The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia from 1993 to 1999, Ibn Baz additionally promoted the geocentric view between 1966 and 1985.
Geocentric mannequin suggests that the Earth is positioned at the center of the Universe while different planets and stars are circling around it. The origin of Geocentric mannequin might be traced again to the ideas of ancient Greek philosophers Plato (423 – 347 BC) and Aristotle (384 – 322 BC). Bouw claims that that establishment was geocentrism, so his favoured geocentric model, the Tychonian system, should prevail.
This is most blatant when in a very late chapter in his e-book Bouw explicitly discusses geocentric fashions. Copernicus printed one of the first descriptions of the idea with work by Kepler, Galileo, and Newton offering mathematical help later. As mentioned earlier, Bouw fails to apply the same rigorous requirements that he applies to the heliocentric concept to his personal pet mannequin. This Geocentric Model was prevailing until the arrival of Copernican Heliocentrism.
Throughout a lot of his guide it is straightforward to draw the unsuitable conclusion that this is the mannequin that Bouw is defending. It was in large part, because his tables of the planets' positions differed considerably from the tables produced by an Earth-centered system, thus enabling his idea to be checked in the long run, that his theory was ultimately accepted. One objection to the heliocentric principle had been the dearth of any observed stellar parallax.

The first major step in committing to a serious project is commission an architect to design some concept drawings.
But before you take this step which, will cost between £3,000 and £5,000, it is a good idea to do a 'Discovery Session'.
This session involves a site visit and background research on your site including identifying key planning constraints and physical restrictions.
The Discovery Package is low risk and the best part is you will receive a detailed report which you can take to any suitable architect and get a formal fee proposal for the concept drawings.
This guide explains:

well, i know the feeling. that's why i understood so easily. I moved a couple years ago. I was where i used to live for at least 7 or 8 years. Had close friends, and even somebody i cared deeply about. And on top of that, nobody told me the when my last day of school before leaving was, so I thought i had one extra day (which was either a thursday or friday), but apparantly not. i didn't find out til 9th period, and never got to see half the people i knew one last time...
but anyway, you don't have to rush yourself man. Hell, I could help with rock if i have time
sure. when the time comes, i'll let people know. And it's funny you say that, cuz i was planning on Mecha Mario being one of those enemies that ends up helping the main team at the end.
Just saw this

House Ahmad Mohamed - Lenasia , JHB
Ahmad approached us to modernise a 1960's original council house. He had the following requirements :
- New lounge & modern open plan kitchen
- New long double garage
- New Master Bedroom + Ensuite
- New kids play room & Home Gym
We repurposed the existing double garage in backyard to accommodate the master bedroom & kids play room. A first floor extension above this created the home gym.
We demolished the existing carport and created a long garage in its place.
A new living room was added in front , having a volume higher then the existing roof in order to give house a modern aesthetic.
The Feature of the house is the corner windows which merge into thin clerestory windows to bring light into the living areas.
The house is nearing completion
House Baba -Heldercrane , JHB
Dr Baba , a close friend and family dentist approached us with this project to design a new house for his family. When the opportunity came , we jumped at it.
The site was two small plots, next to a busy street in the suburb of Heldercrane. From early discussions it was decided that the future house should not be built in a manner that prevented development of the smiler plots of land separately.
Dr Baba had the following requirements:
- Tripple Garage, Staff room, Laundry & Storerooms
- Open plan living , Dining & Kitchen with Scullery
- Guest Suite on the ground floor
- 3 spacious bedrooms all with ensuite bathrooms, and a family lounge & study of first floor
- Entertainment room located on the second floor to look out to the view of surrounding hills.
- High volume entrance
As the client's existing house was a a few doors away , he had an intimate idea on what worked and what didn't. He emphasized the need to achieve maximum light . We went through a few iterations in order to get to the optimal solution.
We proposed a thin,long single story building on the front plot, orientated in such a way to create privacy between the proposed house and a possible second dwelling in the future. This would house the garages, storeroom, laundry & staff accommodation.
The plan of the main house became L Shaped, opening to the north to allow house to be passively regulated. This meant that house would be warm in inter & cool in summer. The L Shape plan meant all of the spaces opened up to the back yard.
The stairway and entrance hall became the main feature of the house. We decided to play with the various heights of the house looking at it as a metaphoric city skyline silhouette. We thus considered the front elevation as different "buildings" of this city each with its own rhythm of windows. As such the scale of he house is broken up so it does not feel as a single gigantic mass.
Construction on the house will commence in the next couple of weeks.
House Sonvadi - Lenasia JHB
Faheem & Safiyya approached us to renovate a house they had purchased. They were looking to do a cost effective renovation that would add to market value of home & had to accommodate the following:
- Secure the building with a front wall , that would not obscure views in and out
- A new double garage
- Need for larger kitchen
Due to the tight budget we had to be laser focused on how to maximize value for the client. Our Strategy was to reuse & repurpose spaces within the existing house. We positioned the new double garage in front of the existing single garage. The existing single garage was changed into the kitchen. We advised the client to focus spending on the entrance sequence to the house. & on 3 elements - The gates, feature entry wall and the front door
In order to conceal the existing roof we raised a front parapit wall which was clad in slate. The entrance gate in the boundary wall was designed as a corner to maximize impact. We added slits in the boundary wall as a way to ensure views in and out of the property.
I always believed that design blossoms under tight constraints, and this project proves it.

Is it possible to run an ATA186 behind a SpeedTouch 510 ADSL Gateway?
https://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/ata186.htm here is the spec sheet. I would suggest that you contact your Cisco sales rep for specific interoperability. The reason being that if they do not support your configuration, it may limit your support options. You may also want to look at the following and check your model numbers:
Cisco Systems announces the end of life (EOL) of the Cisco ATA 186 Analog Telephone Adaptor, models ATA186-L-I1 and ATA186-L-I2. The newer models, the Cisco ATA186-I1 and ATA186-I2, will replace them. The last day to order—also known as the end-of-sales (EOS) date—for these adaptors was July 31, 2002.

Desta vez não vou falar dos erros na TV portuguesa, nem sequer em especial da TVI.
Também não vou falar do erro jornalístico que levou ao mito de Roswell.
Vou falar de um erro jornalístico… na ciência.
Há uns dias atrás, coloquei neste post, a palestra no TED do astrónomo Dimitar Sasselov, de Harvard, que nos falou, entre outras coisas, dos resultados da sonda Kepler.
Aos 8:20, ele mostra a imagem de cima em powerpoint, diz que é um resultado estatístico (MUITO IMPORTANTE), diz que são candidatos (MUITO IMPORTANTE), e aos 8:46 mostra a outra imagem de cima em powerpoint, dizendo que há 700 candidatos a exoplanetas e que nos próximos anos os iremos detectar/confirmar. Diz também que 140 destes serão mais ou menos do tamanho da Terra.
Aos 9:29 mostra outra imagem de powerpoint em que diz que haverá 100 milhões de planetas habitáveis, e que nos próximos anos poderemos descobrir 60.
Nas palavras dele:
"What the new telescope Kepler has been able to tell us in the past few weeks – and lo and behold – we are back to the harmony and to fulfilling the dreams of Copernicus. You can see here [Chart] – small planets dominate the picture. The planets which are marked "like Earth" – definitely more than any of the other planets that we see. Now for the first time we can say that. There is a lot more work we need to do with this. Most of these are candidates and in the next few years – we will confirm them – but the statistical result is loud and clear – and the statistical result is that planets like our own Earth are out there. [Chart] Our Milky Way galaxy is rich in this kind of planet. So the question is what do we do next? Well we can study them now. We know where they are. And we can find those that we call "habitable" meaning that they have similar conditions to what experience here on Earth and where a lot of complex chemistry can happen …"
Ou seja, NÃO se descobriu, mas espera-se descobrir e confirmar vários desses planetas nos próximos anos.
É fenomenal haver tantos candidatos!
Muitos deles serão certamente planetas!
E vários deles serão do tamanho da Terra!
Mas isto já tinha sido anunciado em Junho! Leiam este nosso post.
E ninguém está a dizer que já estão confirmados, que são como a Terra, que têm terra e água, ou disparates do género! Isso foram invenções jornalísticas!
Os jornalistas da FOX perceberam algumas coisas mal:
"Scientists celebrated Sunday after finding more than 700 suspected new planets – including up to 140 similar in size to Earth – in just six weeks of using a powerful new space observatory."
Os jornalistas do Daily Mail perceberam ainda mais coisas mal e publicaram um artigo a dizer que a NASA admitiu que a missão Kepler tinha descoberto 140 planetas como a Terra!
"Hundreds of new planets have been discovered by Nasa's new space probe, sparking new hope of life outside our solar system. Up to 140 of the newly-found planets are similar in size to Earth, scientists have said. The Kepler probe – which constantly monitors more than 150,000 stars for tell-tale signs of planets orbiting them – also may have found five new solar systems, Nasa said."
Muitos outros jornalistas, que leram este artigo, foram na mesma levados!
Por exemplo, no jornal Sun de Toronto, escreveram:
"NASA's deep-space Kepler probe has found hundreds of new planets — many similar to earth — sparking new hope of life outside our solar system. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration confirmed Sunday that in six weeks of operation, the spacecraft has found five new solar systems in the Milky Way and identified more than 700 bodies that could be new planets. NASA has so far formally announced only five new exoplanets — planets outside our solar system — but early data analysis indicates up to 140 of the 700 identified bodies are earth-like. That is, they are solid masses containing both land and water which could allow simple lifeforms to develop."
Este até fala de planetas com terra e água! Enfim…
Até o Daily Galaxy caiu nesta conversa…
Claro que há gente atenta a estes erros jornalísticos.
Leiam por exemplo o site NASA Watch, aqui, aqui, e aqui.
O problema é que isto veio a seguir a outra polémica com a equipa do Kepler…
"Claims of 100 Earth-Like Planets Not True.
"What Dimitar presented was 'candidates,'" said David Koch, the mission's deputy principal investigator at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif. "These have the apparent signature we are looking for, but then we must perform extensive follow-up observations to eliminate false positives, such as background eclipsing binaries. This requires substantial amounts of ground-based observing which is done primarily in the summer observing season.""
Universe Today:
"Did Kepler Scientist Leak Data? Um, Not Really.
Mainstream media (MSM) is funny. Well, maybe funny isn't the right word, especially when they hose things up and create a story when there really isn't one. Or when they miss the real story. MSM recently succeeded in spades on both accounts in regards to the Kepler mission. Just last month, the Kepler team announced they had found over 750 candidates for extrasolar planets, and 706 of these candidates potentially are planets from as small as Earth to around the size of Jupiter, with the majority having radii less than half that of Jupiter. This is such incredible news, especially when you factor in that the data was from just 43 days of observations! But MSM seemed to miss all this and instead focused on the fact that the Kepler team got approval from NASA to keep over half of their data for an additional six months to verify and confirm their findings, rather than releasing all of it, as per NASA's standard policy which requires astronomers to release their data from publicly funded instruments in one year. Then over this past weekend, from a TED talk by Kepler co-investigator Dimitar Sasselov, MSM finally realized that Kepler has found a boat-load of potential Earth-sized exoplanets. Well, yes. That's what they said in June.
But then MSM took things out of context and exaggerated just a tad.
Even though in his talk, Sasselov used the words "potential" and "candidates" and said the planets are "like Earth, that is, having a radius smaller than twice Earth's radius," MSM reported news that NASA has found rocky planets with land and water."
Ontem, o próprio Dimitar Sasselov resolveu clarificar tudo neste post do blog da NASA:
"At this time we have found only planet candidates … Planet candidates are just that: 'candidates'."
Como diz este artigo, é preciso um Carl Sagan que saiba falar para o público…

Born in Carpentersville, IL, Joanna is a perfectionist. She loves to learn and improve at all times. She always customizes her cleanings to best fit clients' needs. She also a vocalists and she loves to travel. In 2016, she successfully completed the Paris Marathon. She is strong, kind and loves being a maid for Arlington Heights.
Hiring a maid service can be a new experience for you but once you begin service your life will change forever. Some people just need a move out cleaning to get their security deposit back, but the benefits are seen immensely with regular service. Regular service ensures you have free time to spend with your family and spend time on what you want. We get faced with the question so frequently 'How regularly will I need a maid service Arlington Heights?' but only YOU can answer that question. We will pose some questions to you today, so you can conclude how often you want this service and how it may change your life for the better.
Asking yourself WHY you need a maid service and how much free time you need in your life is essential to finding the best service for you. Do you want more free time to do what YOU want to do? Do you want to excel in your career? Be a successful parent or caring spouse? Hiring a cleaning service is an investment that helps you succeed in any walk of life that you want to succeed in. Think about how much your family earns v. how much a cleaning service will cost you. Having a regular service will ensure your needs are taken care of and your goals are at arm's reach. Ask yourself, what are you sacrificing by NOT having a cleaning service and having them extra hours in your week.
The first question you need to ask when considering hiring a maid service is why, why do I want this maid service to begin with? Sure, sometimes people want a move out cleaning to get their security deposit back but most people that use a cleaning service use the service on a regular basis. Do you want a deep clean of your home? Some people do! It is recommended that you deep clean your home at least 3 times a year. As a result, we have some clients who care about the health of their home and call us to do a thorough deep clean every few months. This cleaning includes the refrigerator, hand wiping of the baseboards, wet wiping the window blinds, the closets and more. These are all extras which do not need to be done on a regular basis done to upkeep the home. This is essential to be aware of and not let your home get dangerously dirty in harder to reach places and areas you may miss on an everyday basis.
Most of our clients however get a weekly, bi- weekly or monthly service in order to generally upkeep the home. This is the general cleaning of your home which keeps it fresh and healthy on a daily basis for your family to enjoy. This includes dusting, ceiling fans, window ledges, the floors, the surfaces and appliances in the kitchen and more. The health of your home is so important for everyone living in it. You need to decide why you want a cleaning service and what frequency is right for you.
Naturally, the amount of people you have in your home will increase the level of dirt. As there are more people, the house is getting more use and will get dirtier quicker. Requesting a service once a month will naturally mean that you will still have to maintain lots of time cleaning your home during the rest of the month. Sure, getting a deeper and more thorough clean every month will help, but a more frequent service may serve your family better. Cleaning up after the kids walking through the house with their dirty soccer boots is enough of a chore. You deserve a break more than once a month. Consider a more frequent service like bi-weekly or even weekly! Any reputable cleaning company will have discounts available for regular service, the highest for weekly service in fact. At Fresh Tech Maid we offer a huge 25% discount for weekly service. This is because the task should take less time than the first time for example, we have more control over the level of dirt in the home. Think about this as an investment and how the members of your home could benefit from it.
We all love our pets, they are part of the family. Although your companion may be loving an amazing addition to your home, one thing you must consider is that a lot of the time, your cats and dogs create more of a mess than there would be if they weren't there. Does your dog shed?! This creates more mess for you to clean which increases the upkeep of the home for you. In addition, they need to be walked everyday so they bring in dirt all the time that you may not have had otherwise. Household pets create a little more As we said previously, the higher the dirt level, the more cleaning you must do. Therefore, you must consider a more regular service such as weekly or bi-weekly to keep up with the mess that they may have made.
Your lifestyle has a huge impact on how clean your home is. Depending on your stage of life, your hobbies and career, it can all have a huge impact on your life and how often you can clean. It makes a significant difference to the way you live your life and what you achieve.
You may be a stay at home mom or dad, cooking, making kids lunches and running around making sure the children don't get into trouble. If this is the case, you spend a lot of time at home, the house it gets more use, it may need more TLC. A more regular service such as bi- weekly or weekly will suit you better as the house is busy and as a result, will be dirtier and this will allow you to spend more time focusing on the kids, the ones that really matter.
If you are a young couple or aren't home very often due to work commitments, a lighter schedule may suit you better. Choosing a monthly regular service ensures you are keeping your health at it's top priority while still putting more time into your job and side hustle and climbing the career ladder. A monthly service will ensure the health of your home is at it's highest standard.
We at Fresh Tech Maid have been in business for 9 years. We have so many happy clients who have signed up for repeat services who's lives we enhance on a daily basis. You may ask, what is the most popular service that we see? We see most people booking a bi- weekly service and here's why. After two weeks, cleaning is often needed not just for the cleanliness of the home, but for health.
We may not even know that the home we are living in needs to be sanitized and cleaned because we can't see it with the naked eye. Chemicals however don't tend to be the best options as they can often degrade your health. This is especially the case with the elderly, children, pets and those with lowered immune systems. This is due to the dangerous residues left on the surfaces after you use chemicals to clean. When ingested, the chemicals can do serious harm to your body. Not to mention they degrade air quality which also affects the health of your family.
Chemical Free Cleaning is the answer to this problem. We at Fresh Tech Maid the cleaning solution use de-ionized water, or 'hungry water' as we like to call it. It is the purest form of water which attracts and dissolves both microorganisms and soil. It is a powerful solvent, which when paired with a microfiber cloth is an extremely good sanitizer. The microfiber cloth has tiny hooks in which trap dirt and sanitize 99% in comparison to a cotton cloth which sanitizes just 33%! This way of cleaning is the leading way to clean not only for your health, but for the earth too. As it does not leave any chemical residues there is no chemical waste! Having a biweekly chemical free cleaning service can ensure you achieve your goals AND the health of your family is taken care of so you don't have to worry.
Many of our clients told us that a regular maid service is the BEST investment ever! It allows you to be the real you and really pursue what you love to do! You deserve it. Life goes by in a flash, why hold back? What are you waiting for? Do it before it is too late.
We love providing a beautifully clean home for our clients. After every clean we send them a quick one click review to see how we did! If you see a negative review, please know that our staff has reached out and fixed the issue as quickly as possible. Mostly though, you will see only glowing reviews. That's how we create happiness, one home at a time.
Glenda's work was excellent this week and every week! The surfaces were gleaming, and it was wonderful to come home to a clean home. The children were very appreciative and loved their rooms arranged so nicely. Thank you to Glenda and to Fresh Tech Maid for this excellent service!

Kim did an amazing job! All of the techs we've had from Fresh Tech have been wonderful. The place always looks spotless and their cleaning agents do not leave any harsh chemical smells. I highly recommend them!
Limor G., Chicago Verified Customer
Lindsay were punctual and pleasant and left the apartments sparkling clean.
Sharon W., Chicago Verified Customer
We've been using Fresh Tech Maid for about 6 months and have been extremely happy with our service. They are in frequent communication about (rare) schedule changes. Tatiana, our tech, is fantastic. She is very detailed-oriented and pays special attention to problem areas. My husband frequently works from home, and she is always careful to not disturb him. We've tried many services in the past, and Fresh Tech Maid is by far the best.
Christina L., Chicago Verified Customer
Iesha did a great job at the house and was very friendly. She was also very nice to talk to.
Melanie B., Evanston Verified Customer
Fantastic company to work with. Their techs are prompt and professional. Any concerns are quickly addressed and resolved. Theresa is my tech and it is a joy to see her. I know that when I come home from work, my house will be standing tall and my dog will have spent several hours with a good friend. She is quiet, very polite, and a hard worker. I have recommended her and Fresh Tech to my family and friends and will continue to do so in the new year!
Elizabeth B., Wheeling Verified Customer
We use this service once a month, and it really helps to keep our apartment clean. Our cleaning tech is Cenice – she is always punctual, pays attention to the details, and uses her time well.
Brandon T., Chicago Verified Customer
I was very impressed by Fresh Tech Maid. I was originally assigned a group of cleaners but fortunately, I ended up with Alicia. While she was late, she was extremely communicative in keeping me updated on her status. That completely made up for being late. She did a fantastic job cleaning. Very efficient and did a great job. My only thing I would change is I would check to see that they clean inside of the microwave. Besides that it was fantastic.
Matthew D., Chicago Verified Customer
Fresh Tech Maid came to do a move in clean and went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied. April was a great cleaner, professional, and very nice to work with. She worked extremely hard to make sure the apartment was as clean as possible and payed close attention to areas of concern.
Jaime B., Chicago Verified Customer
We have been talking about getting a maid service forever and finally decided to give it a go. After a lot of research we landed on Fresh Tech as they are highly rated and I don't have to worry about chemicals with young children. I have to tell you, it has been life changing. With two busy young boys I would say our house is clean, but lived in. Having Joanna come in twice a month to really get in there and deep clean is literally one of the best things we have ever done for our family! Talking about Fresh Tech and more specifically about Joanna she is just wonderful. It is amazing how much she gets done and how shiny the place looks when she leaves! If you are on the fence about getting some help around the house I say 1000% DO IT. And if you are wondering about a good, reputable and friendly company call Fresh Tech and request Joanna. You will not be sorry!!!

VIA C3 1GHz Processor Review
Introduction and History - Part 1
The processor company formally known as Cyrix is well known to many computer users due to their past line of poor processors. Cyrix first started out in March 1992 when Cyrix released the Cyrix Cx486SLC line of processors. The Cx486SLC was one of the first Intel i386 alternative processors on the market. This CPU was available in clock speeds ranging from 20MHz up to 66MHz using an FSB of 16MHz all the way up to 33MHz. The processor itself contained 600,000 transistors and had 1KB of L1 cache and 128KB of L2 cache provided on the motherboard. This processor was used on motherboards that used 386 processors and had no FPU.
The next CPU from Cyrix was the Cx486SX. This CPU was released in May 1993. The processor itself used the same 600,000 transistors as the SLC processor line, however, this CPU increased the L1 cache form 1KB to 2KB and allowed for up to 512KB L2 cache on the motherboard. Clock speeds had changed ranging from 33MHz up to 50MHz using the 33MHz to 50MHz range FSB. This CPU was designed as an alternative to the Intel 486 and AMD 468 CPU but still contained no FPU.
The next jump up was to the Cx486DX range of CPUs in September 1993. The new DX line of processor used a 1.1 million transistor layout, ranged in speeds from 33MHz up to 100MHz and increased the size of the L1 cache from 2KB to 8KB. Again, this CPU was an alternative to AMD and Intel 486 DX line of CPUs.
For the next 2 years, Cyrix didn't release any new CPUs until October 1995 when they released the Cyrix 5x86 processor. This processor had a total transistor count of 2 million on a 0.65-micron die. The clock range of these processors were from 100MHz up to 120MHz. With the 5x86 CPU being a disaster in the first month of sales in the retail market, Cyrix went back to the drawing board and came out with the Cyrix 6x86 Processor. The 6x86 processor featured a 3 million-transistor count on a 0.35-micron die. The speed range of this CPU was from 80MHz up to 150MHz (PR90 to PR200) with an FSB range from 40MHz to 75MHz. During its initial stages, the 6x86 processor was a huge hit as its raw performance in business applications was better than any Intel or AMD processor. However, when the 3D gaming craze evolved, the Cyrix 6x86 processor suffered very badly because of its very weak FPU performance; even the PR200 CPU would run slower in Quake I than a Pentium 90. The Cyrix 6x86 CPU supported 16KB L1 cache and up to 2MB on L2 cache.
February 1997 saw Cyrix enter the mobile PC market with the introduction of a new processor called the Cyrix Media Gxi processor. The Gxi processor included 2.4million transistors on a 0.30 micron die and clock speeds ranged from 120MHz to 180MHz. The reason this chip was so good for notebooks was that not only was the Gxi a CPU, it also contained a graphics engine and an audio engine making this the first integrated CPU. The video engine was Cyrix's own designed based on the S3 Virge video technology with support for up to 2MB of memory provided on the motherboard. The audio engine was based on Eagles ESS688 Audio processor.

Inner Range Access Control
Author: iCam Security Date Posted:6 July 2016
Advantages of Integriti Inner Range Access Control in Australia
With the physical as well as the digital world facing a wide range of security of personnel, property and data have acquired the greatest importance and even small lapses can potentially cause extensive damages. Integriti is crafted to suit small sites and large global organisations alike. Furthermore, to make it affordable to everyone, the flexible and modular design allows the user to access only what is needed for the present and scale up as the needs grow. This is a networked solution that is IP-based, and therefore one can comfortably use existing or new I.T. infrastructure for seamless connectivity.
Simple but powerful
Integriti is powerful and yet intuitive, with a programming for cardholder permission. The administration gets significantly simplified by the 'Deny' and 'Allow' functions. Operator training and other associated tasks can be achieved at minimal cost. Operator actions can also be run through an elaborate forensic audit, and programming can be changed or restored to a historic point chosen by the user.
Rich suite of applications
Integriti comes with a suite of feature-rich tools like powerful reporting, graphic maps, alarm management, card printing, communication via pager/SMS/email, access control based on compliance, and more. Mobile apps are also available for Android and Apple for remote control and monitoring.
Tracking cardholder activity and location
With the integrity system, you can track the activity of the card holder and share them with the building management for effective control of lighting and air-conditioning systems reducing energy costs incurred on these systems. As you can notice, this is a recurring saving month after month.
Wider choice of access control peripherals
Integriti also supports a wide range of peripherals like readers, cards, detectors, locks and other devices. This gives you great leverage in choosing exactly what you need without being dictated by brands.
Choosing a security company
iCam Security is a licensed provider and installer of both the Concept and Integriti families of the Inner Range products in addition to our other brands.

Facial paralysis is loss of facial movement because of nerve damage. Your facial muscles droop or become weak. It usually happens on just one side of the face and is typically caused by:
- infection or inflammation of the facial nerve
- head trauma
- head or neck tumor
- strokeFacial paralysis can come on suddenly (in the case of Bell's palsy, for example) or can happen gradually over a period of months (in the case of a head or neck tumor). Depending on the cause, the paralysis might last a short or extended period of time.
What Causes Facial Paralysis?
Bell's Palsy
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, Bell's palsy is the most common form of facial paralysis. Every year, 40,000 Americans experience sudden facial paralysis due to Bell's palsy [NINDS]. This condition causes the muscles on one side of the face to droop noticeably.
No one knows exactly why Bell's palsy occurs. It may be related to a viral infection of the facial nerve. The good news is that most patients with Bell's palsy recover completely in about six months.
Other Causes
Other causes of facial paralysis or weakness include:
- skull fracture or injury to the face
- head or neck tumor
- stroke
- chronic middle ear infection or other ear damage
- high blood pressure
- diabetes
- Lyme disease, a bacterial disease transmitted to humans by a tick bite
- Ramsay-Hunt Syndrome, a viral infection of the facial nerve
- autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, which affects the brain and spinal cord, and Guillain-Barre syndrome, which affects the nervous system
What Are Symptoms of Facial Paralysis?
Facial paralysis has a major impact on a person's quality of life. You may lose confidence and feel embarrassed. In addition, facial paralysis can cause:
- facial pain
- headaches or dizziness
- earaches, ringing in one or both ears, and sensitivity to sound
- difficulty talking
- inability to express emotion
- difficulty eating or drinking
- drooling
- muscle twitching
- tearing of the eye
- dryness of the eye and mouth
Patients who aren't able to close their affected eye will need to take extra care to help prevent long- lasting eye damage.
Free Gracilis Transfer Surgery
In order to restore smile to the face we need to replace the nerve that is not functioning and provide muscles to create movement.
One of the nerves that can be used is the facial nerve from the opposite side (we have two facial nerves, one on each side of the face). The working nerve is used to communicate with the affected side via a cross facial nerve graft, this is a surgical procedure which essentially acts like an extension lead.
Another nerve that can be used is a motor nerve on the affected side of the face. A motor nerve transmits instructions to muscles when we make a voluntary movement, such as chewing. Commonly used are the facial nerve and masseteric nerve which are joined together. The masseteric nerve is normally used to activate the chewing muscles but can be used to provide a nerve supply to the paralysed facial nerve and thereby help to restore the smile. .
When patients have experienced facial paralysis for more than two years, the native facial muscles will often have become non-functional, this is because there has been insufficient nerve supply to the muscle to create movement. The free gracilis transfer uses a muscle from the thigh to act as a replacement motor, which will create movement when connected to the nerve to activate it.
It takes a minimum of 3 months from the operation to start to see movement in the muscle as small twitches, which continues to improve for up to two years.

Farlow book PDEs for Scientists and Engineers pg. 27 shows derivation for Heat Equation. It starts by stating
Net change of heat inside $[x,x+\Delta x]$ = Net flux of heat across boundaries + Total heat generated inside $[x,x+\Delta x]$
and writing the conservation equation
$$\textit{Total Heat Inside} [x,x+\Delta x]= cpA \int _{ x}^{x+\Delta x}u(s,t) ds $$
Takes derivative according to time, rewrites the equation
$$ \frac{d}{dt} \int _{ x}^{x+\Delta x} c\rho A u(s,t) ds = c\rho A \int _{ x}^{x+\Delta x} u_t(s,t) ds $$
$$ = kA [ u_x(x+\Delta x,t) - u_x(x,t)] A \int _{x}^{x+\Delta x} f(s,t) ds $$
At this point he wants to get rid of the integrals, so he uses the mean value theorem which is, for a $a < \xi < b$
$$ \int _{ a}^{b} f(x) dx = f(\xi)(b-a) $$
A $\xi$ must exist within the specified interval. He applies it to the equation, and gets
$$ c\rho A u_t(\xi_1,t)\Delta x = kA[u_x(x+\Delta x, t) - u_x(x,t)] + Af(\xi_2,t)\Delta x $$
$$ x < \xi < x+\Delta x $$
This also makes sense, there are multiple $\xi$'s for two different integrals. However below, he turns two $\xi$'s into one,
$$ u_t(\xi,t) = \frac{k}{c\rho} \bigg[ \frac{u_x(x+\Delta x,t) - u_x(x,t)} {\Delta x} \bigg] + \frac{ 1}{c\rho}f(\xi,t) $$
and while $$ \Delta x \to 0 $$
he gets
$$ u_t(x,t) = \alpha^2u_{xx}(x,t) + F(x,t) $$
In this last statement, $\xi$'s are replaced by $x$. So I have three questions: First how did the author combine the two $\xi$'s, second, while $\Delta \to 0$, how he turned them into $x$. I guess it is understandable if the $\Delta x$ becomes infinitesimally small, than whatever's inside can only be $x$? That still does not explain the two $\xi$'s though.
Third question: Net flux of heat across boundary uses $u_x(x+\Delta x,t) - u_x(x,t)$, that is derivative according to space, and takes difference between two sectional endpoints. Why $u_x$? Shouldn't we use simply $u$ here?

Uruguay Hunting Trip, April 2008
Twenty-six hours is a long day airport hopping! All I can say is the beers in Denver and Miami airports were cold and eased our painful efforts to get through security! Pappy and I took off from Cody, Wyoming at 7am Friday and landed in Montevideo, Uruguay at 9:20am Saturday. There is a 3 hour time difference from Wyoming to Uruguay.
Next year, I will get to the Radisson ASAP, head right to bed for the day and plan on a long night out on the town. The days work differently in Uruguay, most bars and restaurants were closed at 5:30pm and wouldn't be open until 8pm or so. When the locals say they are going to eat an 'early' dinner, they mean around 9:30pm. And, an evening out concludes about 5am! But this night, up 'til 5am was not meant to be for these 2 tired men.
April 12...
-We spent the day in the city soaking up local flavor and were wowed by the architecture. I am in awe of the sculpture down here, there is a lot of it, such beautiful bronzes. We went to the market for a book and pencil to journal with, 94 Pesos. And we found a Montevideo license plate for $5 US! It will be great on the shop wall! We are on a patio, Patrisia Beer #1 is in Pappy's hand and a Pilsen in mine. 1 liter beer, 100 pesos. We are starting to notice a pattern of really good-looking, olive-skinned women. The architecture here is amazing, but the scenery is all good too.
-Walking down city streets, we stumbled upon Carlo, Carlo the boot shiner. Pappy couldn't pass up a boot-shine, so I sat and watched people circle in the square to music playing. An older couple took off dancing in the street. Somehow, I also ended up with Carlo's towel on my boots, as he and I learned that elephant skin boots don't really shine up!
-Still on Wyoming Happy Hour time, 'tipsy' Pappy and I decided we needed a very early, by Uruguay standards, dinner. We headed to the Solis Grill at 8:15. Jet lag was really kickin' our butts, but we hung in there. On the way to dinner, we found this Irish Pub! Yes, we came back after dinner! The Solis had an indoor grill, they are so cool! We had a great meal. Again, amazing scenery!
-This Uruguayan Irish Pub just introduced me to my new favorite beer, Zillertal. ZIllertal and I are becoming quite close. Yep, you guessed it, scenery to die for! And here I sit writing in a journal? Whose idea WAS this?
-El Pony Pisador was next in line. There was scotch EVERYWHERE! I was in heaven. Pappy's Pilsen was the beginning of the end for him though. There were still not many people out at 10:30pm, but the places around town were really just starting to open now! Oh, how we wish we had taken naps. Then came Maria. And, we REALLY wished we had taken naps. What can I say about Maria? The journal had to wait. Maria, the Johnny Walker girl, in red leather from head to toe, serving me scotch... will remain in my thoughts for quite some time. El Pony Pisador has lockers in the basement that patrons can rent. The girls walk around selling one brand of liquor, you by a bottle and leave it in your locker, and that's what you can drink while you're there. I tried to talk Maria into renting me a 'long-term' locker with a promise of my return every year to buy a new bottle. Next year, I'll try harder for that locker. God bless Johnny Walker, for Maria's hands are allll over him! Pappy and I lasted as long as we could, but I figured it was time to get Pappy back to the Radisson when he mumbled, "No, I don't want to ruin your good time," and then fell asleep on the bar.
April 13...
-We are getting ready to head to Santa Elana Lodge where we will spend the week. We leave at 11am for a 2-hour drive and we will be dove hunting by 3pm.
-This is BEAUTIFUL country on this cold, rainy day! Everything is very clean.
-Santa Elana is beautiful! Built in 1806 and full of old world charm!
-Well, our afternoon hunt was not good, the birds were already at their roosts. There is a couple from Dallas, Texas here hunting as well, George and Nancy Brown. We all had 'bird boys,' they got us beers, shells, and picked up our birds. My 'bird boy's' name is Carias.
-I went through 8 boxes of shells.
-Our evening libations were awesome.
April 14...
-We got up at 5:30, OUCH. Did I mention how good the drinks were last night? The morning hunt was slow, I shot maybe 200 birds. We had a nice BBQ, they cooked some sort of beef back strap, along with some sausage. Very nice lunch! The afternoon dove hunt was GREAT! I shot over 1,000 doves, it was awesome! 6 Cases of ammo.
-This evening was much like LAST evening. I'm sure it will hurt tomorrow morning.
April 15...
-We got up at 6am for breakfast. It is just Pappy and I today. I am going to count my birds today.
-.....70.....75.... George, our outfitter, just asked me WHY I was counting doves in my book when he has counters he can give me! I'll drag my dumb ass back to my journal later, I have to go kill some birds!
-Lunch was great, Rump roast. The beef down here is so good, what flavor, and so tender! The Browns came out after lunch. As they were driving out to us in their van, the tire from underneath fell off! They came screaching to a halt and watched it roll off. HAHAHA
-So, this afternoon's dove hunt, I only shot 500 doves. My shoulder is SORE. I never thought you could get sore shooting, my body is feeling it. Beer time! We are back at camp and are diving right into the beer before dinner.
-We had steaks for dinner, served on wooden plates. It was a great meal, and great time all around. We told stories and laughed a lot. The Brown's seem like good people, George the outfitter just likes to talk a bunch! It sounds like I may get some taxidermy work from the Browns, and they have some interest in my life-size bronze elk.
-2 1/2 cases of ammo.
April 16...
-Pappy and I decided we would take the morning off from shooting birds. It's a good thing Pappy and I are early risers! The construction they are doing on our wing of the house had us up anyway! We stayed at camp to rest and let our shoulders recover. The Brown's are leaving today, it's all good we took the morning off, the outfitter took the Browns into town to help them with their paperwork. I am going for a walk and to take some pictures.
-5 Cases Shot Gun Shells, Shot 380 birds in 2 hours this afternoon!
April 17...
-We are back in Montevideo now. We did our morning hunt and had another awesome lunch at camp. Montevideo is on a big delta on the river. Sometimes it is filled with salt water, sometimes with fresh water. The views are extraordinary, I've taken a lot of pictures today!
-We are at Francis, a seafood restaurant, for our last dinner here. I ordered the swordfish, it was delicious!
-We are headed to the airport now. They dropped us off this afternoon for our 9:20pm flight tonight. We will get into Miami in the morning, and back into Cody around 8pm.

IRS Should Collect From Vendors
If you owe the Internal Revenue Service money, chances are you will be harassed until you pay up or at least make arrangements to do so. Unless you happen to be doing business with the IRS.
IRS Inspector General J. Russell George revealed Tuesday that nearly 1,200 vendors who have contracts with the agency owe a total of $589 million in back taxes. Just 50 of the vendors have set up payment plans to deal with their debts.
In their written response to George's report, IRS officials said – wait for it – they are "committed to improving the controls" over vendors.
If taxpayers had a dollar for every time a government official has made a similar promise, we'd be well on our way to paying off the national debt.
Obviously, the IRS should stop paying vendors that won't pay their taxes.
Private businesses operating the way so many government agencies do would not last long. Why do taxpayers allow such mismanagement? More to the point, why do we keep re-electing members of Congress who permit it?

Do you know what I mean when I say you need a master resume? I mean you need one solid document that spells out every detail of your career life from day one. This document evolves at every step of your career journey. It should include the dates of employment, names and addresses of employers, job descriptions, college jobs and job gaps, salary history, promotions, key words, key accomplishments, training, several close coworkers names and contact information (personal, as well as business, because people change jobs), supervisors names and contact information, your personal addresses, and even why you left that job. You may even want to include a statement that you develop to put a good spin on a job that had a questionable ending. This document is for you and only you.
I'm sure you now wonder why your basic resume isn't good enough. One reason is that your career will span decades. You won't remember the details twenty years in the future. Now, I can hear some of you saying that everyone knows you drop jobs that go back more than ten years off of the resume. That is often true for job hunting. However, it won't help you when you need to track down a retirement account after the company name changed three times. Worse yet, you may have moved and forgotten to notify them. It also won't help you when you get an offer for a government job that requires a background check that may go back many, many years. These projects require accurate details right down to zip codes, neighbor's names, and phone numbers. No one knows they need this information until they need it.
A much more important reason is to make targeted resumes and interviews stronger. A master resume makes it easy to have several well focused resumes prepared. These can be modified quickly to personalize the response to each opportunity. The master also documents useful details to make your cover letter stand out. It's easy to prepare for interviews and answer those tough stress questions when you have accurate information to offer. In addition, you create a long term networking and reference tool too.
My way of doing this is to create the master document and format it. Then, I can save it several times as a new document and strip the unnecessary information, along with adding specific details for multiple targeted job searches (such as a resume for a management position and a resume for a lead technical position). Be careful doing this! It's critical not to leave in the wrong information. You won't get a job by telling the employer how you reworded the reason you left a job where you hated the boss.
If you just need a little help, I have special discounts for quick reviews and tips. I also offer a full set of services, including resume(s), cover letter(s), interview preparation, and job search set-up, monitoring, and strategies.

Sauced: Annie's Naturals Organic BBQ Sauce
Sauce Stats
An organic natural sauce with a distinct mustard profile, this sauce neither wowed or disappointed. It had a decent flavor, but gritty texture, out of the jar. Baked onto chicken, it was very mild and mellow, with nothing really popping out to make this sauce stand out in a pack.
I've always seen the Annie's Naturals brand in the grocery store, mostly as dressings, but never knew that it actually got its start through barbecue sauce until now. Chef Annie Christopher opened a barbecue stand in the Green Mountains of Vermont, where she developed her organic sauce to slather on chicken and ribs. The customers liked it so much that she started bottling it at home, and when the demand rose even further, she rented out equipment to step up production and started selling to local shops, which was the birth of Annie's Naturals brand in 1984. Today the business has expanded to include dressings, sauces, condiments, and olive oils, all focusing on high quality, organic ingredients.
There's a pretty equal weighting between mustard and vinegar on first smell. Taking a deeper whiff and a tomato sweetness is clearly present. All in all, this sauce has a very pleasant and balanced aroma.
Thickness & Texture
When first poured out, the sauce had a little bit of an oily sheen, a sign there was some separation going on—which may be due to the lack of additives—so it's more of a trade-off than a complaint. The opaque, medium thick sauce dripped off the spoon and had a lot of visible spices mixed in.
Out of the Jar
Definitely a mustard heavy sauce, it's the first and last thing tasted. In between there's a easy kick of tangy vinegar and a little tomato, although the tomato plays second fiddle to the mustard. There isn't too much sweetness, but it's also not very spicy, it sits about in the middle between the two barbecue sauce extremes. It's not smooth on the tongue, but a little chunky and slightly gritty from all the spices. Although I might find that off-putting on some sauces, like with Stubb's, it feels very natural here and difference that made this stand out.
Slathered & Cooked
This sauce had very nice cooking properties—it coated the chicken well with a good amount of caramelization, even if the color was a tad on the light side. The flavor of the cooked sauce was pleasant, but not thrilling. The mustard still came through, but the heat brought out a little more sweetness. None of the flavors really popped though, it was very mild and mellow.
Put to UseAlthough nothing really to write home about, this sauce did perform well both cooked and out of the jar. Since the flavors mellowed when cooked, I would say it would best be used on light meats, like chicken or pork, otherwise it might get completely lost. Used as a condiment, this would pair with anything that loves mustard—I'm thinking pulled pork in particular—although the gritty texture may not be for everybody and everything.

Nothing but dressed up ketsup and A1 sauce- and too dang mustardy. Avoid at all costs and buy Sweet Baby Rays bbq sauce. Annie's bbq : this is exactly the kind of bar-b-que sauce I despise. I like a nice honey barbque...it's the only way to bar-b-que in my book !

|Reproducibility of an Italian food frequency questionnaire for cancer studies. Results for specific nutrients.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 7728288 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The reproducibility of measures of the intake of total energy and 27 selected nutrients from a quantitative food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) used in a case-control study on cancer of the breast, ovary, and digestive tract was evaluated. The results of two FFQ administrations at an interval of 3 to 10 months (median = 5.4 months) to 452 volunteers (144 males and 308 females; median age = 50 years) from three Italian provinces (Pordenone, Genoa, and Forì) were compared. Pearson correlation coefficients (r) between crude nutrient intake (unadjusted for energy) ranged from 0.50 for vegetable fat to 0.80 for alcohol, with most values falling between 0.60 and 0.70 (median r = 0.67). Adjustment of nutrient intakes for total energy slightly decreased most coefficients (median r = 0.60). The agreement between the two measurements did not differ substantially by sex, age, education, and interval between interviews. The contribution of specific FFQ components (i.e., frequency-only questions, open questions, portion size, and fat intake pattern) was also assessed separately with respect to the performance and reproducibility of nutrient measures, yielding, in general, very similar results. The seven questions concerning individual fat intake pattern, which were used to modulate the composition of various recipes, led, however, to a significant increase in mean daily intake of vegetable fat, oleic acid, and vitamin E, but a reduction of estimated daily intake of linoleic acid and polyunsaturated fatty acids.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Chronixx EP enjoys 42nd week on Reggae Billboard top ten
Reggae artiste Chronixx's EP, The Dread and Terrible, has spent 42 weeks in the top 10 of the Billboard Reggae Albums Chart. The EP, which was released in 2014 without the backing of a major label, peaked at number one last year, a position currently held by Protoje's recently released effort, Ancient Future.
The Gleaner recently spoke with the leader of Chronixx's Zinc Fence band, Elijah Ellis, and he said, "The reason why it's so successful is because of the quality and content. It is well mastered and the lyrics are easy to catch, clean and learnable. When we go on tour, we perform all songs on the EP and we try to perform all songs as close as possible to the original. So when somebody comes to our show, it reflects what they will get on the CD. People just love Chronixx because he is a good youth," he added.
Ellis says while staying in the top 10 for 42 weeks is a big accomplishment for Chronixx and the Zinc Fence band, credit should also be given to the other acts who have contributed to the ongoing reggae revival.
"Protoje, Chronixx, Jesse Royal, everybody .... It's a new movement, and people are recognising positive and good music now. So we will be on the charts for even more than 42 weeks," he said.
Some critics have outlined that the absence of major record labels from the Jamaican music industry, might have also contributed to the decline in album sales. However, Ellis believes reggae music can still sell good numbers independently, provided that the right groundwork is executed.
Zinc Fence production
"We didn't use any big record label, all of this was done by Zinc Fence production. We used heart, soul and foot-bottom ... blood, sweat and tears. It can be done from right here, as you can see. In the future, we don't know if we will merge with a major label. But for now, it is Zinc Fence, we have our own producers and musicians and we work together," he said.
The Dread and Terrible, is available for purchase online at iTunes.com, as well as traditional record stores. There are versions of the EP available in CD format and also vinyl. The bandleader disclosed that versions of the project was offered in vinyl, so as to increase its reach and to meet consumer demands.
Other projects currently enjoying chart success on Reggae Billboard are Easy Skanking In Boston 78 by Bob Marley and the Wailers, Viking (Vybz Is King) by Vybz Kartel, Count Me In by Rebelution, FM by The Skints, Amid The Noise and Haste by SOJA, Fly Rasta by Ziggy Marley, One Eighty (EP) by Maoli, and Fox Fuse Presents: Get Soca 2015, featuring various artistes.
