New Tool to Help Growers Make More Meaningful Variety Choices10 April 2015
UK - Even more meaningful variety choices can now be made by growers, thanks to a new online tool based on variety trial information.
The Variety selection tool was developed in response to HGCA Recommended Lists surveys which showed growers wanted more regional variety performance information.
The interactive tool lets growers navigate the latest variety trials data and make comparisons – based on location-specific information – to help them identify the most promising varieties for their unique situations.
The first version of the tool is based on winter wheat trials data. Accessible through an online 'dashboard', it allows users to select from a range of parameters to see what impact they have on yields.
By selecting geographical location, rotational position, soil type or sowing date, the tool visualises trials data in chart format for easy variety comparison.
Dr Ellie Marshall, HGCA Research Manager, said: "Not only does the tool let growers look at variety trial information in a totally new way, it allows a new tier of trials information to be accessed – including 'district-level' information."
Districts are based on the UK regional climates, as defined by the Met Office, which describe the general climate in that area.
Dr Marshall added: "The main reason for selecting a district is trial data from other areas are omitted – potentially making the results more regionally relevant.
"District-level information can also give growers a better insight into how trials operate, by showing how many trials are involved."
Later this year, the tool will be extended to include quality parameters, as well as dashboards for winter barley, winter oilseed rape, winter oats and spring barley.
The Variety selection tool sits alongside HGCA's regional disease monitoring and weather monitoring tools.

Judy Dianne, nee Greenwood, Huggins, 73 of Marissa, IL; born on January 11, 1944 in DuQuoin, IL; passed away on Sunday, February 5, 2017. Our beloved wife, mother and grandmother courageously and bravely completed her journey here on earth and is now in the loving arms of our Lord and Savior.
Judy was born to Henry and Edith, nee Bauman, Greenwood. On January 24, 1964 she married Norman "Wayne" Huggins. The many years they shared together was blessed with their three children and five grandchildren. Judy is survived by her husband Wayne and their children – Amy (Harold) Melser of Columbia, IL; Lori (Darren) Touchette of Millstadt, IL; Andy (Mary) Huggins of Tamaroa, IL. The apples of her eye her five grandchildren – Andrew; Thomas; Daniel; Sophia Huggins; Jayden Touchette. Also survived by one brother – Lennoth (Harriet) Greenwood of Anabel, MO. One sister – Phyllis Payne of West Frankfort, IL. Sisters-in-law – Joyce (Rev. Ted) Clark of DuQuoin ,IL; Alice Greenwood of Benton, IL. She was preceded in death by her parents and one brother – Ronnie Greenwood.
Judy was a loving homemaker. She also worked for many years as a clerk/manager of the Marissa Handee Mart. She was a member of the First Baptist Church in Marissa. Judy served her community from 1983-2014 as an election judge.
Judy was such an amazing and caring person to everyone she met. She made absolute strangers feel like part of the family. Our mom was selfless and has taken care of many without giving a second thought about her own pain and discomfort from her 30 year struggle with her disease. If you needed anything, she would without complaint volunteer to help. Mom was a perfect example of selflessness even to the end where she was considered a favorite of all her caregivers and never let them leave her room before thanking them. Our mom cherished the title "Mom" with all of her heart, only to be topped by the wonderful title of "Grandma". She was everything to us and we were her whole life. Anyone who knew her has most definitely seen every picture in her wallet of her family and mostly the grandkids. Her favorite treasures were gifts from her grandkids as well as her "grandma shirts". She will be sadly missed but her legacy continues to live on in our hearts and all whose lives she has touched over the years.

Anika Bowie, daughter of St. Paul's Rondo neighborhood, seeks council seat
Anika Bowie is the latest bright-eyed millennial hoping to make a dramatic change in her hometown. Bowie, current vice president of the Minneapolis NAACP, announced on the first day of this month she'd run for St. Paul City Council.
The Ward 1 seat she's seeking covers the Frogtown, Summit-University, Lexington-Hamline and Snelling-Hamline communities, and is among the most racially and economically diverse areas in St. Paul. Bowie wants to unseat Dai Thao, who in 2013 became the first Hmong city council rep in St. Paul history.
Born and raised in the Rondo neighborhood, the young Bowie bagged groceries at Pyramid Market, near Selby and Dale Street. Her community was tightly woven together: She attended jovial family cookouts and basketball tournaments open to everyone who could dribble a ball.
But these fond childhood memories were often fouled by a greater issue plaguing so many of America's cities. In a mission statement on her campaign website, Bowie says the Rondo neighborhood lost many residents to "drug addiction, gun violence, and prison."
Bowie also felt the strain of racial injustice. After losing her own father to the criminal justice system at a young age, her mother fought during long city council hearings in an attempt to keep their family home. The appeals were rejected, and the Bowie family was ultimately left homeless.
They took refuge in St. Paul libraries and recreation centers. Public transportation and public housing were their way of getting around and getting by, connecting them to family members and friends across the city. Instead of being discouraged by this hardship, Bowie grew committed to restoring her weary community.
She graduated with honors from Central High School in St. Paul, and got a B.A. in Criminal Justice from Hamline University in 2014. Since then, Bowie has served in several public service positions around the Twin Cities, including a spot on the St. Paul Police Civilian Internal Affairs Review Commission and Restore the Vote Minnesota. She also helped spur "Warrant Forgiveness Day" in Hennepin and Ramsey counties, when those holding misdemeanor warrants have the opportunity to clear them without getting arrested.
Bowie's campaign experience includes behind-the-scene roles on Melvin Carter's mayoral campaign, among others. (Carter previously held the Ward 1 seat Bowie is seeking; his departure in 2013 cleared the way for Dai Thao's election.)
"I've always been in positions of decision-making and connecting community to government," she said. "I chose this time to step into [the race] because all of the council seats are opening up."
Bowie wants to create a justice system that is more community-based and revolves around mental health support and rehabilitation, rather than punishment. She says she wants to revive a vibrant culture within these neighborhoods that contain her friends, former teachers, and family members.
Bowie says Thao, the incumbent council member, doesn't make himself accessible to the neighborhoods he represents. Community members do not always feel comfortable talking to Thao, Bowie says.
Bowie comes into the race as an underdog, given Thao's electoral history: He defeated community activist Trahern Jeen Crews in the 2015 general election handily, with 84 percent of the vote, and in 2017 got 12 percent of the city-wide vote in the mayoral election. Thao's mayoral bid was hurt by news that his campaign manager had essentially sought a bribe from a lobbyist; Thao fired the manager, and Carter eventually won a crowded race with 51 percent of the vote.
Bowie said she's already seen an outpouring of support in her campaign, and hopes she can carry that momentum all year. Bowie is planning an official campaign launch party at Heritage Tea House, the only black-owned tea house in the Twin Cities, on February 28.

The exchange between Irish rhythms, melodies and Black rhythms and melodies is one of the earliest experiments in the history of modern popular music. The first musical theater came from this exchange, and this is how tap dance was invented, between step dancers from Ireland and Black dance masters getting jiggy together in Manhattan not so long ago.
In a similar vein, Irish traditional musicians Liam Ó Maonlaí and Paddy Keenan, traveled to Africa as part of a documentary, that explores the African and Irish musical traditions together. You can watch that documentary online, here.

Back in 2011, QC was completing a video series highlighting the burgeoning and unique Brooklyn DIY scene. This piece was Part 3 of Quiet Color's 'Do It Yourself video series and took place in Bushwick, Brooklyn in the living room/art gallery/Brooklyn D.I.Y. venue Fort Useless. It was a cold winter day in NYC when we met with husband and wife Andreas Werliin and Mariam Wallentin, more aptly known as the Swedish indie duo Wildbirds and Peacedrums. What would follow was an intimate and resplendent performance that transformed Fort Useless into a warm winter sanctum. Quiet Color was blessed to have captured this private live session which is still wonderful to enjoy nearly 7 years later.

A REVIEW for MORE LIKE A RIVER THAN A ROAD
'Perhaps it is a sign of the times but I don't often get to describe any musician as individual or, for that matter, unique. Sheila K Cameron
can, however, only be described by using those two adjectives with "More Like A River Than A Road" reflecting seven songs from a
copious catalogue of songs on to the mirror of today.
Sheila K Cameron is not one to follow trends or seek critical favour and her songs, perhaps unsurprisingly, tend more towards the poetic
than the lyrical. She also has this rather addictive habit of stopping her songs before the finish as if leaving the listener in limbo gives her
some perverse joy. Some may well find that irritating but, as with all things that require concentration to achieve appreciation, her
alternative approach ultimately proves entrancing.
It is, for example, impossible for your heart to argue with the perfectly poised sentimentality that warms "The House with the Windows"
or, indeed, the poetic construction of "Somehow" as, at the very least, they provide evidence that you can intermix language and emotion
without becoming maudlin or confused as to actual intent.
Sheila K Cameron is unique and that, my friends, is all you really need to know.'

His overall appearance is a skeleton dressed in a black pin-striped suit and a bow tie that strongly resembles a black bat. Originally, his suit was meant to be completely black, but it blended with the background too well, so it was changed. At the beginning of the film, Jack makes his grand entrance by emerging out of a fire-breathing dragon-themed fountain. His last name is based on the word "skeleton". He has a ghost dog named Zero for a pet, who has a small glowing nose that looks like a jack-o'-lantern. He is adored by Sally, a rag doll created by Dr Finklestein. The character is a popular design on bags, hats, clothing, umbrellas, belt buckles, pet collars and other items

I had been turned on by my Aunt Chloe for a long time now, ever since I started to notice girls really.
She was about 60 now, but was she a stunner. She has shoulder length blond hair that was almost white, and framed her soft, light face perfectly. Blue eyes, a small nose and gorgeous lips, she was beautiful.
Her large chest, somewhat sagging in her older age was still amazing. Large and full 36C's with big luscious nipples, just begging to spill out of her bra. Her legs were big and thick and stood her at a full, plump 5'4 while perfectly accentuating her huge ass. Once when we were at the beach, her one piece bathing suit rode up a bit tight in her crotch and I saw some of what was a large blond bush of hair around her plump vulva.
Also, once when she had slept at our house, she had an old camisole on, revealing her gorgeous dark pink nipples that I struggled not to look at. These were my only semi-nude encounters with her so far, the only other time I saw anything sexual about her was the times I borrowed her panties, some of them used, to masturbate to. They always smelled so sweet with a bit of perfume and the delectable aroma of a woman's vagina on the crotch area. She was coming to stay soon, and I think both of us anticipated that we would get a bit closer this time.
When she showed up at the airport, she looked gorgeous. She had on a tight black sweater and a black skirt on with matching black pantyhose and pumps. Coming from California on a hot plane must have made her a bit hot and sweaty, and I was already getting turned on just looking at her. She came over to us with her luggage and set it down to greet us.
"Hey darlin, how are ya?" she said brightly as she embraced me in a hug, her breasts mashing into me, the sweet scent of her perfume and sweat pushed up my nose by the gust of air created when her boobs hit me. I felt like saying "Much better now!", but I just said I was good and smiled. We all got in the car and she sat in the back with me, which was great as it was dark and I could sneak a glance at her gorgeous body and take in the scent of her perfume mixed with a bit of sweat.
I was imagining what the smell would be like if she peeled off her skirt, sweater, pumps, pantyhose, bra and panties right there in the back of the car, the aroma of her sweet perfume and pussy juices coming from her plump crotch and her large, smooth, slightly sagging buttermilk butt. I got a huge erection and had to adjust myself so it wouldn't look like a tent.
They were all talking as I fantasized about Aunt Chloe, but then I got brought right out of my daydreaming into reality. Chloe put her warm hand on my leg and said "So, how have you been darlin'?" "Uh, I've been really good, Aunt Chloe, how about you?" I managed to say. "I've been really swell!" she said brightly with that twinkle in her eyes as she rubbed my leg.
"We're going to have lots of fun, OK?" "OK, sounds good to me!" We just smiled at each other for a second and she finally stopped rubbing my leg and began talking to my parents again. I was disappointed, but relieved, because my cock was rock hard now. I glanced down to see if it was noticeable because I was nervous about the way she said 'swell'.
Sure enough, I thought I had hid it enough, but my head was somewhat visible next to my leg. When she rubbed my leg, she must have noticed! Damn, not even home yet, and I get a huge erection in the car because of her hand.
On the way home we just glanced at each other a couple times and I smiled nervously, just wanting to get home. We finally got home and I helped Aunt Chloe with her bags as we settled into the house and she sat down in our main chair in the living room. She smiled at me and crossed her sexy, pantyhose clad legs slowly, leaving her legs open for a second. We talked for a minute and then she asked me to get her a glass of water.
I got her the water, and on the way back, I noticed that she had undone three buttons on her blouse, revealing the top of her cleavage. I sat down on the couch next to the chair, making sure I was sitting so that if I got an erection, it wouldn't be very noticeable.
"So, do you have a girlfriend?" she asked. "No, not at the moment", I said as I just blushed. "Well, that's no fun, if you know what I mean." "Um, yeah", I said as I kind of laughed it off. "Well, we're going to have lots of fun while I'm here, OK?" "Ok, sounds good" We just smiled at each other a second and then she said "Well, I'm pretty tired, I should probably get into my nightgown." "Oh yeah, and uh, I should probably leave" "Hah yeah, I'm just your aunt, but I've got to pee anyway" she said as she got up.
"I'll see you in a minute!" she waved a cute little wave and went into the bathroom. I quietly tiptoed over to the door and put my ear up close to see if I could hear anything. I heard the sound of pants unbuckling and the sound of fabric moving as she pulled her pantyhose down, followed by her skirt and underwear.
As soon as she sat down I could hear a loud stream of pee going into the toilet. I longed to see the sight of her plump pussy, even if she was peeing I didn't even care, I just wanted a glimpse. My cock began to get hard as I heard her wiping and then pulling up her pants. I moved away from the door slowly and went to the living room to sit down as she washed her hands so she wouldn't see me or my hard-on.
She opened the door and went to the stairs up to her room, and saw me in the chair, "Hey darlin, I've gotta change into my pajamas, but after that do you wanna watch a movie with me?" "Sure, that sounds great!" I said, looking forward to the opportunity to sit near my aunt for an hour or two.
"K, be right back sweetie", her eyes twinkling, and she went up the stairs to change. I put in some popcorn, and came back to see her coming down the stairs, which almost gave me an instant hard-on. All she had on was a mid-thigh length negligee and white panties, the waistband of them visible. Her milky white, plump legs and feet were gorgeous and I could see she had just put moisturizer on them, and I could see she wasn't wearing a bra, as her sagging, but still firm and large breasts were hanging down a bit more than usual.
Her face was gorgeous and radiant and she had let her hair down which was framing her face perfectly. "Is this OK that I only have these skimpy pajamas on? It's so hot, and I'm your aunt, so I figured why not?" "Yeah, I don't mind at all, make yourself comfortable, I'll get the popcorn", I said. "K, I'll find a movie for us" and she went to the couch to sit down, her huge ass jiggling all the way.
As I was getting the popcorn I thought about just burying my face in her gorgeous plump butt, panties on and all, I didn't care, just to get a taste. I started to get a hard-on and wanted to 'make some more popcorn and be right out in a second', in other words, quickly jack off in the kitchen, but I told myself to just wait until later that night. I came back out and saw that she had put in a movie and had it all ready to go. "Is this something you'd like?" she said. It was a romantic comedy that looked OK to me, plus if she wanted to watch it, then I definitely wanted to watch it.
"Sure, this looks good" I said, sitting down on the other end of the couch on the right side, putting the popcorn in the middle. She smiled at me, and we started watching the movie. We were about halfway through the movie, when a sex scene came on, and while it was nice, I looked over at Aunt Chloe to see her reaction and couldn't believe what I saw. Her nipples were rock hard and poking through her top and she was squirming a bit, her thighs shifting around, she was really turned on!
I struggled not to get a hard-on, but I got a slight one anyway. I shifted trying to hide it and knocked some of the popcorn over. Aunt Chloe looked over and laughed, "A bit uncomfortable she said?" smiling and helping me pick up the popcorn. My hard-on was fading, but I noticed that she had looked at my groin area a few times as she picked up the popcorn.
"Here, why don't you come a bit closer and sit next to me, and we can put the popcorn on the table" as she placed the bowl on the coffee table. I moved to the left side of the couch next to her and she inched up next to me, so that we were touching now and she put her arm around me.
"There, that's better, since were watching a romantic movie, I figure we should be a little closer!" she smiled. I just smiled back and put my arm around her, moving even closer so we were pressing against each other.
She smelled amazing, the scent of her perfume and lotion mixing with a bit of her natural female scent as she hadn't showered since her flight.
I looked down at her breasts and could see her nipples poking through her negligee again. As I watched she started rubbing my shoulder and I started getting a hard-on but tried to focus on the movie. This didn't work though and my cock was fairly visible through my pants, which Aunt Chloe noticed.
"Hey darlin, you like this movie?", she said, looking down at my cock. "Uhh, yeah," I blushed, trying to hide it. "Don't worry about it, it's pretty natural to get excited like that." she said, smiling at me. "As a matter of fact, I've been excited a few times by this movie myself!" she said. "So it's ok?" I said. "Yes, it's perfectly fine, don't try to hold it back", she said while rubbing my shoulder.
"Ok, cool!" I said, not quite believing what she was saying. We continued watching the movie and I just let my cock stay hard, leaving it to make a bulge in my pants, proudly showing her I had a pretty big cock. She glanced down a couple times eyeing it a bit, and I knew she realized how big it was.
We were about 75% of the way through the movie, and it was getting a bit chilly, so she grabbed a blanket and put it over our laps, and then did something amazing. "Hey darlin', mind if I bring my legs up here so I'm a bit more cozy?" she said. "Sure, that's fine with me!" I said, wanting to say that I would absolutely love it if she did!
She moved the blanket and swung her legs up and rested them on my lap, her smooth milky white, thick thighs right over my hard cock, which I tried to stop from getting even harder or twitching in my pants.
"Darlin', have you ever massaged a woman?" she said sweetly, "cause my legs are certainly sore from all the walking I've done today." "Uh, I never have, but I could try!" I said, trying to form actual words instead of just moaning or grunting, which I felt like doing.
"Ok, have at em' darlin!" she said brightly, her eyes twinkling. I just started in the middle, squeezing and pressing gently on her thick calfs, moving down towards her ankles and feet. I got to her feet and began massaging the bottoms of them, and my cock by this time, was rock hard and dripping with pre cum. I looked over and Aunt Chloe was watching the movie, so I kept massaging one of her feet with one hand and rubbed my cock with the other, occasionally rubbing her leg so she wouldn't look over.
I was so close to orgasm that I was starting to move a bit, almost causing her to look over at me. I felt my balls tightening as I began rubbing her foot a bit harder and rubbing my cock faster, and my cock just began spasming in my pants as I shot ropes of cum down my leg. I moved my leg up, pushing her legs, so she wouldn't feel my cock moving as I cummed in my pants.
I gasped when I was done, and she looked over at me, her eyes twinkling and said, "What's the matter sweetie'?" "Uh, it's just your legs are gorgeous!" I said, that being the only thing I could think of. "Aw, thanks sweetie, you really think so? 'cause I always thought they were a little too plump. "No, they're just, uh perfect" I stammered.
"You're just the sweetest!", she beamed, "here, let me give you a little more access so you work on my thighs a little!", and with that she pulled her negligee up above her knees, showing the back of her even plumper, buttermilk thighs. I couldn't believe it, she was nearly giving me access to her ass! "Alright then, I better get to work!", and she smiled and went back to watching the movie.
My cock was about as hard as it could get at this point, and I began massaging her thighs, with my thumb pressing into the back and my fingers rubbing the front. As I rubbed her thighs, I noticed that she was breathing a little more heavy and moved her legs a couple times, her thighs mashing together. She must have been turned on from me rubbing her, because there were no hot scenes in the movie at the moment!
She looked over, her face a bit red and stammered "Um, you know darlin', we're family and all, so is it ok if I show my butt to you so that you can really massage my legs? I am wearin' panties of course!" "Uh, sure!," I said, trying to hide my excitement. With that, she smiled and lifted the rest of her nightgown up. I almost gasped out loud as her huge ass came into view, her thin, almost transparent white panties tight around her ass, barely holding in her large ass cheeks that were sandwiched on top of each other.
I looked in between her legs in her crotch area and poking out of the sides of fabric were some thick, whitish blonde pubic hairs! She noticed me staring at her ass and sweetly said "Darlin, it's ok, I've got a pretty nice bum if I do say so myself!" beaming at me proudly. "Yeah, I mean, um.," I started. "It's ok sweetie, you're a teenage boy, pretty horny I'd imagine too!" I couldn't believe it, a few hours before I was just dreaming about catching a glimpse of her thighs or some extra cleavage and now she was next to me half naked, her legs up on me and her huge, barely covered ass in front of my face.
To top it off, she was saying it was ok for me to have a hard on and to look at her ass! "Well, it is nice.," I stammered and then I went for it, "Aunt Chloe, can I, ask you something?" "Sure darlin!" she said brightly. "Well, I know you're my aunt and all and I hope you don't get mad, but, I uh, was just wondering if I could see your bum." I managed to say.
"Aw, well darlin', I have shown you a lot and got you interested, and it wouldn't be fair for me to not give you a treat.", she said, her eyes twinkling with a wide, devilish grin. I couldn't believe my eyes as she went for the waistband of her panties and slowly pulled them down, and for a second, lifted her hips off me to pull down the the other side. Her huge buttermilk colored bum was right there, her butt cheeks stacked on top of each other beautifully and a bush of light blonde pubic hair sticking out, thinning out as it got closer to her bum.
"There you go darlin', you can look at it and touch it if you want, it's very soft!" "Wow.," I started to say as I slowly put my hand on her right butt cheek, which was on top, and lightly rubbed it, trying to keep catching glimpses of the bush between her legs.
My hard-on was raging and while I was nervous, I got a bit bolder and began squeezing her butt cheek. "Aunt Chloe, this is amazing, you're so beautiful", I said quietly. "Aw, thanks sweetie, now be honest, I think I've always had a nice bum, but I've gotten a bit older, do you think guys will still like it?" she said innocently. "Yes, I know I do!" I beamed, touching both of her butt cheeks now. "Aw, babe, maybe I should go out with you and forget the other guys I go out with, you know how to treat a girl!" she exclaimed, smiling at me, and then came the line that made my cock twitch in my pants.
"Honey, you must be pretty excited by now, being a horny guy and all. First you see that exciting movie (she didn't know I had already came in my pants during the movie and massage), then you get to see my bum and touch it, so your penis must be ready to explode!" "Well, I do admit, I am very excited!," I stammered, still rubbing her butt cheeks, my full, hard cock ready to spring out of my pants.
"Here, sweetie, take your pants off," she said as she swung her legs off me, "Go on, it's ok", she said, noticing my shock. I began to take my pants down, not believing this was really happening, and my cock sprung up, straining to get out of my boxers. She took one side of my boxers and we took them off together, letting my 7.5 inch cock spring out into plain view, pre cum oozing out of the head.
"Ooh!" she started to say when she saw the cum in my boxers, "looks like you already blew your load tonight, but I bet you've got a lot more where that came from!" she said proudly (she had no idea just how much cum I could pump out!). She got back on the couch and put her legs up on me again, and said "Darlin, I want you to get yourself off proper now and cum all over your auntie's bum, can you do that?" "Yes Aunt Chloe!" I said nervously but obediently.
I started squeezing her butt cheek with my right hand and took my cock in my left and began jacking off, imagining the engorged, purple head of my cock sliding into her asshole! I grew bolder and began lifting up her ass cheek as I squeezed it so I could see her tight asshole, surrounded by little blonde hairs.
The sight of her ass and her gorgeous face occasionally smiling back at me was just too much for my cock to take and I felt my balls tightening.
I sped up on jacking my cock and squeezed her ass hard as my cock began to shoot pearly ropes of cum onto her butt, one shot hitting her bush and another hitting her directly on her asshole, the rest dripping down her butt cheeks. "Mmm, that's a lot of cum darlin!", she said, beaming back at me. I just smiled back, breathing heavy, my hard cock sticking up like a pole, very slowly getting softer as a couple drops of cum dripped off. "I better get to bed sweetie, but this was fun! Maybe tomorrow we can have some more fun now that we've gone this far.", she said mischievously as she got off my lap.
"Aunt Chloe, this was amazing, I don't know what to say." I started. "You don't need to say anything, I know you've been into me for awhile, and truth be told, I've been into you and have just been aching to see your young cock!" she said as she pulled her panties back up, over the cum and all.
I got off the couch and got dressed along with her and said "Wow, I've been into you for so long, this is just, wow.", I began to say as she walked up close to me, kissed me on the cheek and whispered, "Wow is a good word for it.goodnight sweetie" and walked to the bathroom to clean up.
I just smiled as I watched her walk to the bathroom, her ass jiggling all the way, and wondered to myself what she had planned for us tomorrow. Part 2 coming soon!

01/02/2006: Puts me in mind of House of Windsors' Country Doctor blend with a little less Perique. Well balanced and with a nearly perfect moisture content and requires little attention to smoke all the way to the bottom of the bowl. Originally created by Leonards' Pipe Shop in Portland, Oregon. If you are ever in Portland, Oregon stop by Cascade Cigar on 82nd Ave. it is a combo Cigar/Pipe store with a sports bar ajoining it. The last time I was there you could still smoke in the bar. You can also order on the internet. Do a search for Cascade Cigar you should find it easily.
11/27/2006: A good all-day smoke. Not a four-star though.

for haredawg: you finally mention the name of the place; however, who is the "she" within your writing? Who do I talk to when I go there? I was born and raised in Portland, Or and I do know where you are talking. Even though I am a native; those that are not familiar with Portland, would have no clue as to the who and where Cascade Tobacco really is. (BTW: it is in the building that used to be 82nd AVE Bowl.)

This is what you'd expect from a store made balkan blend with burley added. A bit nutty, a bit damp out of the baggy, a nice mottled course collection of light and dark. Dry it out a bit and it smokes cool and even, and you know you've smoked a balkan blend. There's nothing to complain about and nothing to laud, and any one of us could make comparisons to this or that tobacco.
The genius and beauty and special thing about this blend is the owner and blender and the store itself. She is humble about her mixing skills, and, you know, perhaps she should be. She is humble about other skills as well. Truth is she is a force of nature for smokers rights, specifically in Oregon. It has cost her too, in undue scrutiny, her liqour license, her license to have video poker. But she's won a battle or two too. She is almost single handedly the reason you are allowed to smoke in a smoke shop (the original bill did not allow it).
The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, and the walk-in humidor is the largest in the NorthWest.
Thirty feet north west of the store is the best taco cart in the world.
I know, someone will complain that this is not a review. I don't care, Nan is an unsung hero of basic rights and I miss the hell out of Oregon. Delete the not-really-a-review if you want. But if you're in PDX, go to Cascade and say Hi.

|Design methods depend strongly on such factors as an FSM model in use, specific features of logic elements implementing its logic circuit, characteristics of a control algorithm to be interpreted. In the case of Moore FSM, optimization methods are based on existence of the classes of pseudoequivalent states. Their use permits to compress the transition table of Moore FSM till the size of the table for equivalent Mealy FSM. In the case of Mealy FSM, optimization methods are based on transformation of either object codes, or interpreted graph-schemes of algorithm. In the case of CPLD, the hardware decrease can be achieved using more than single source of state codes. In the case of FPGA, the structural decomposition allows using embedded memory blocks for implementation of decoding logic. In case of ASIC, design methods target on minimization of the chip area occupied by an FSM circuit.
The control unit is one of the most important parts of any digital system responsible for interplay of other system blocks. Very often, the model of a finite state machine (FSM) is used to represent the behaviour of a control unit. Modern computer-aided design tools include a lot of optimal solutions (library cells) for implementation of such regular blocks of digital systems as decoders, multiplexers, parallel multibit adders and so on. But as a rule, control units have an irregular structure which makes impossible to design their logic circuits using the standard library cells. To use these cells, an FSM can be represented by a multilevel model based on the principle of structural decomposition. In multilevel models, for example, multiplexers are used to replace logical conditions, decoders are used to implement microoperations, and different memory blocks are used to transform object codes.
It can be achieved due to use of different encoding methods, where both internal states and collections of microoperations can be encoded. If a control algorithm is a linear one, then a state register of Moore FSM can be replaced by a counter. It leads to simplification of the input memory functions and, in turns, to the hardware amount decrease. The book includes a lot of design methods targeted on logic synthesis of both Mealy and Moore FSMs, where their logic circuits can be implemented using ASIC, as well as CPLD or FPGA. The most of discussed methods belong to the authors of this book. This book will be interesting and useful for students and postgraduates in the area of Computer Science, as well as for designers of digital systems included complex control units. Proposed models and design methods open new possibilities for creating logic circuits of control units with optimal hardware amount

Cooperation between insurance authority and Dubai Financial Services
Thursday, April 28, 2011
Under the kind patronage of H.E.
Eng. Sultan Bin Saeed Al Mansouri, Minister of Economy and Chairman of the
Insurance Authority (IA), the IA signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
with Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). The MOU was signed by H.E.
Fatima Mohammed Ishaq Al Awadi, Deputy Director General of the IA and Mr. Paul
Custer, CEO of DFSA.
The IA is responsible for organizing
the activity of the insurance sector in the UAE and supervision thereon in a
manner to ensure providing a sustainable environment that achieves development
and caters to the best interest of relevant parties (the consumers, the public,
professionals, insurance companies, beneficiaries, and those applying to
receive the insurance services and properties).
Paul Custer, CEO of DFSA said: "I am
pleased to sign the MOU with the federal entity responsible for the insurance
activity in the State, namely the IA. The DFSA already has strong relationships
with the IA. Both entities are members at the International Association of
Insurance Supervisors (IAIS), which is assigned to set the standards of the
insurance industry. The IA was among the sponsors and key participants in the
Annual IAIS Conference which was hosted by the DFSA last year in Dubai".
Paul Custer added: "signing of the
MOU expands the circle of cooperation between both entities to include the
daily organizational issues and adds the official capacity to the operations of
information exchange between both entities. It also asserts that supervisors
from both entities rely on the quality of organizational standards which are
run on a federal basis and inside the Dubai International Financial Centre.
Further, the signing of such MOU creates an official link for cooperation
between DFSA and the three federal financial supervision bodies, whereas two
MOUs were signed with the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) in
2005 and the Central Bank of United Arab Emirates in 2009".
Paul Custer went on to say: "continuing the close
cooperation and joint future initiatives between DFSA and the IA will reinforce
our commitment to ensure the financial stability and boost the achievement of a
sound economic growth in the UAE".

Not only is it nerve wracking to get into college and leave home, students are then faced with the responsibility with correctly mapping out classes to successfully complete a college degree. Fortunately, there are several resources at college students' disposal when trying to choose the right college classes.
Most colleges assign students an academic adviser. These individuals have access to several different resources to help students choose the best classes for their course of study. Students usually meet with their advisers once a semester to assist in choosing classes for the following semester. During the adviser meetings, the student and the adviser can discuss academic goals, interests, prerequisites and any other issues that either wants to address. Students should take advantage of this free service, especially their first couple of years.
Program Requirements
When a student declares a major, this determines what classes are required to graduate, as well as how many electives are allowed for that degree. Once a student physically has a list in hand, she can look it over and decide which classes she wants to take first or which ones need to be completed as a prerequisite for other classes. There are also general education requirements that are classes that everyone must take. These requirements vary by college. If a student hasn't declared a major quite yet, she can obtain major requirement lists and review the classes to see what feels right and what interests her.
Depending on a student's chosen major, there is a certain amount of allowable elective classes to fulfill the credits needed to graduate. Electives are classes that a student can choose according to her interests. If a student must take some brain-busting classes one semester, like statistics and biopsychology, she may want to add a fun class in there, too, such as yoga or art, to even it out. Electives can also help round out a degree and add some specialized component to it. For example, a psychology major student can choose electives in motivational behavior or addictions to bring focus to a certain area.
Time of Day
Students should also consider the time of day that the classes are offered. Let's face it, some people are morning people and some are not. If a night owl student chooses a Calculus class that is offered at 7 a.m., it's very likely that the student will not thrive as well as if she had chosen the afternoon class. It's also important to consider the time the student has between each class. If she has to get from one end of campus to the other in 10 minutes, it may not be feasible to sprint across the grounds in the time, weaving through students and then try to concentrate on the professor as she catches her breath for another 10 minutes. Students that have part-time jobs while attending school will also need to keep time of day in mind so there is no conflict.
A student's peers can be a valuable resource for honest feedback on certain classes or professors. A student can ask fellow students for suggestions on elective classes that they have taken and enjoyed. Peers can give a student the inside scoop on tough professors or class tips.

First Sell in Germany
Yesterday I was checking our Amazon sells and saw that we had an international sell at Amazon.de. I wasn't sure where that was. We've had sells in the UK and Canada, but .de was new to me, so I followed the link – actually expecting to see Spanish language on the screen, but to my surprise it was Germany! The book was a Spanish version of Timeless Love, but…in Germany? That, I didn't expect and it really cracked me up. I think I was just too giddy at the Germany thing. Anyway, we're slowly making it globally and that's a really good feeling.

To declare a modified major students follow a process similar to a standard major or minor. Modified majors require a rationale as part of the declaration request, and approval by the Registrar. For more information on modified majors, see the ORC/Catalog.
Update Plan:
To update a declared major or minor, begin in the DartWorks Planner, and either create a new plan or modify a current one. To modify a locked plan, create a copy of the plan using "save as," and make your modifications. Next, from the DartWorks Dashboard, click on the major or minor you wish to update, then on "Update Plan." From here, you can attach your new academic plan created from the DartWorks Planner and submit the updated declaration request.
Change Major or Minor:
To request a new major or minor, which will replace a declared one, begin from the DartWorks Planner by creating an academic plan. Next, from the DartWorks Dashboard click on the declared major or minor, then on "Change Major or Minor" and submit a declaration request. When the status of the new request shows as "Declared" you have officially dropped your previous major or minor.
Drop Major or Minor:
To drop a declared major or minor, begin from the DartWorks Dashboard and click on the plan you wish to drop and then "Drop Major or Minor." This button is not available if you have declared only one major (you cannot drop your only major).
At what point in my Dartmouth career may I declare a major?
Students may declare their initial major after the beginning of their fifth term in residence. For most students it is in winter term of their sophomore year, and the major should be declared officially by no later than the second Thursday of spring term.
Can I declare a minor first, and then a major?
No, you need to have officially declared a major and have it recorded with the Registrar before you declare a minor.
How many majors and minors can I declare?
You may have a total of three declared plans combined. Each plan is approved by the respective department or program separately.
After I submit a major or minor declaration request, is my major or minor declared?
No. After you submit a request, you will receive an email with further instructions from the department or program with regard to advising. The department or program will then either approve or deny/unlock your declaration. If it is denied/unlocked, you need to revise it. If they approve it, they submit it to the Registrar's Office who will post it to your record at which point the major or minor is declared. Note that per faculty legislation, there are additional steps for modified majors.
I declared a minor but do not see it on my transcript. Why is this?
Minors only appear on transcripts after you graduate.
How do I use the DartWorks Planner to design my major?
For more information on the Planner, see the DartWorks Planner Guide.
Why do I receive an error message if I list the same course in more than one plan?
Faculty legislation prohibits any course overlap among majors and/or minors (see the ORC/Catalog). Courses listed in more than one plan appear on your plan detail page with the following error message: "*OVERLAP ERROR - Your plan has courses in a plan you submitted previously.*"
Who do I ask if I have a question about my major or minor?
You ask questions specific to a major or minor directly to the department or program in charge of that course of study.
What are the differences between the Modified Major "type A" and "type B?"
The Modified Major "type A" involves courses from a primary and secondary department. The Modified Major "type B" includes courses from a primary department, along with courses from multiple other departments. For more detailed information see the Modified Major section of the ORC/Catalog.
What do I include in my modified major rationale?
Your rationale should include an explanation for how all courses meet the requirements of a unified and coherent modified major, not simply why you wish to declare it or a listing of the courses.
I want to declare a modified major. Who has to approve it?
Modified Major "type A" requires approval from both the primary and secondary departments and the Registrar. Modified Major "type B" requires approval from the primary department and the Registrar.
How does a modified major appear on my transcript?
Modified Major "type A" appears on your transcript as the primary department modified with the secondary department. For example, "Economics modified with Mathematics." Modified Major "type B" appears on your transcript as the primary department modified, without any indication of the second part. For example, an Economics Modified Major "type B" would be "Economics modified."
How do I get assistance or provide feedback?
For assistance with the creation of an academic plan contact your Faculty Advisor.
Email all other questions and feedback to firstname.lastname@example.com. Include DartWorks in the subject line, so that we can gather the information more readily.

The Cancer Academy was launched in late 2016 as a key part of the UCLH Cancer Strategy. The Academy responds to the need for improving patient experience and provides programmes for people affected by cancer. It also responds to an opportunity to support staff in realising their full potential. Our launch was made possible through philanthropic support from our commercial partner Amplifi and through investment by the UCLH Trustees.
The Cancer Academy works closely with the The University College Hospital (UCH) Education Centre, the UK's most advanced medical and clinical training facility. The Education Centre's premium facilities provide opportunities for healthcare professionals at every level to learn, enhance and optimise their clinical skills and medical knowledge through experimental learning. For more information on the Education Centre and for course booking, please visit their website.
The Cancer Academy comprises four schools which have been established with direction from staff and patients. Our philosophy is to empower people through personal development and opportunity. We achieve this by adopting a combination of approaches across the four schools including quality improvement, coaching and providing access to internationally regarded subject matter experts. These are made possible by our collaboration with the UCLH Institute and UCL, our world leading multi-faculty university partner.
Initially the scope of the Cancer Academy encompasses UCLH staff and patients. Our ambition is to work with partners across the region to extend the remit so that patients and staff working in cancer services across UCLH become beneficiaries and active members of the Academy.
Please let us know if you have an idea for a course that's not available – the Academy will develop and evolve with your needs.

Xiaomi's global Vice President Hugo Barra has posted a letter on his personal Facebook page and confirmed that Xiaomi's sales have been blocked by the Delhi High Court.
Dear Mi fans,
We have been committed to continue our sales of Redmi Note and Redmi 1S devices in India. In the last 2 days alone, we received about 150,000 registrations for Redmi Note on Flipkart and the momentum has been terrific.
However, we have been forced to suspend sales in India until further notice due to an order passed by the Delhi High Court. As a law abiding company, we are investigating the matter carefully and assessing our legal options.
Our sincere apologies to all Indian Mi fans! Please rest assured that we're doing all we can to revert the situation. We have greatly enjoyed our journey with you in India over the last 5 months and we firmly intend to continue it!
Stay tuned for more information.
(on behalf of the Mi India team)

I've started on my next Ludlum – though it's not really a pure Ludlum since I seem to have run out of those :p This one's a collaboration between Robert Ludlum and Gayle Lynds and is the start of a new series called "Covert One". It's called "The Hades Factor" and so far seems to be sort of a mix between a Robin Cook medical thriller (though I've never read Robin Cook :p) and Ludlum's own espionage stuff. I've only got to about chapter three but it hasn't hooked me yet – or maybe I've been reading too many Ludlum's and need to switch to something else 🙂
I've also started work on Blog 7.0 🙂 So far I've been able to complete work on the lists management functions since there's going to be many lists to be managed – there are the include/exclude lists for posters and then the new remote comments facility brings up another set of include/exclude lists. Then of course, there is the list of subscribers for the digest feature – the ability to receive a week or a month's worth of posts via e-mail – and how to manage subscriptions/unsubscriptions via e-mail. Though I'm working on only two features at the moment – remote comments and digest – it's already apparent to me that I might have to do some major code shifting/rewriting. Since at least one of the other features I'm looking at – better archival link handling – might mean a lot of upheaval in the code base as well, I'm not sure when I'll get done with this particular release :p But it's going to be chock full of features when I do 🙂

Chrome Browser Extension "HashPlug" Adds Twitter Results To Google Searches
As recently as six months ago, when you did a Google search in Chrome, relevant tweets would show up in your search results.
Which was super helpful, especially if you were looking for timely, ultra-relevant information. But Twitter put a stop to that technology.
Happily, there's now a free browser extension for Chrome that brings it back.
HashPlug, a one-step download, adds Twitter search results into Google in an "unobtrusive manner," so that you get real time results on the latest topics right alongside Google's results.
Here's what it looks like:
You don't even have to restart your browser. No Twitter account or password is required. But if you do log into Twitter, HashPlug also allows you to favorite, reply or retweet any result.
Check out a quick intro video, below (warning: the music is really annoying):

Hello Away Travelers!
You are one of 38 or so amazing individuals who will be supporting on our boys this Wednesday from Rio Tinto Stadium. BEAUTIFUL Sandy, Utah awaits us!
Your Real Salt Lake vs Seattle Sounders ticket(s), on Wednesday, August 14, 8:00PM Mountain Time, to stand with the Emerald City Supporters are attached to this email!
Rio Tinto Stadium
9256 State Street
Sandy, UT 84070
Parking for visiting supporters at Rio Tinto Stadium will be in Lot #3 (Ardell Brown). There is a cash only fee of $10.00 for parking. The lot opens 3 hours before kickoff so at 5:00 pm. Depending upon the weather and our travels we plan to be at the lot no later than 6:00 pm. North Lot #3 (Ardell Brown) located off the Stadium Road. Access to the North Lot is from 9400 South stadium entrance- you need to take a right onto Stadium road, then continue on Stadium Road as it goes all the way behind the stadium on the westside and then turn left just before State Street (opposite Team Store) and main entrance gate. (Please see attached pdf maps).
Parking Lots open at 5:00 pm, we likely plan to be there no later than 6:00 pm. No host tailgate in the parking Lot #3 (Ardell Brown). (See attached maps). Even if you don't plan to prefunc, you should meet us here no later than 6:45 pm as we march as a group together to the stadium at 7:00 pm.
Gametime (Important Information):
Emerald City Supporters is a supporters group. That's important to remember. Our reason for being at the match is to spur our boys on toward victory; everything else is secondary. Please note that Salt Lake is at a higher altitude. Drinking alcohol and supporting at altitude can and will take a toll on you. Make sure you hydrate with a lot of water. You don't want to be that person who couldn't give every ounce of themselves to support. We are here to support our boys and we don't want anything to take away from your ability to do so.
• Our section is always treated as General Admission, we do not enforce seat assignments. Tifo, capos, the drum, and security will be in the front few rows. Everyone is invited to stand where they feel most comfortable.
• Keep your scarf tied AT ALL TIMES, inside and outside of the stadium.
• Participation is encouraged. We encourage those who know our songs to help lead others. Song Cards can be downloaded ahead of time from our site: https://www.weareecs.com/multimedia/songs Don't worry if you don't know all the words, just follow along the best you can and your support will be felt!
• There may be times where you can't see as well as you might like due to flags and tifo. We like to wave flags. Even during the run of play sometimes. We feel like it's an important part of showing the boys our support, and they are going to need every ounce of strength. If a flag is in your way, and you don't like it - please feel free to change seats. That's part of why we do GA, so you're not stuck in an uncomfortable spot.
• Do not engage in any way with home fans. Security will keep them at bay; there's no need to engage in any wordplay, taunting, threats, etc. If you have an issue, notify ECS travel monkey or stadium staff.
• We understand that for many this may be a vacation in which you meet up with friends and family in the area, and that's great! They are more than welcome to stand with us, as long as they do not display the colors and gear of the home team. Our section is the away section, and stadium security may mistake your friend or family member for an instigator and no one wants that.
• FRIENDS OR FAMILY IN OTHER MLS TEAM GEAR OR COLORS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO STAND WITH US. Section 233/234 of Rio Tinto stadium is designated for supporters of Seattle Sounders FC. This match has big implications, and it is very, very important to those who have traveled to be here. Passions will be running high. If you or someone in your group is wearing colors of another M LS team, they will be asked to remove those items. If they refuse, we will try to have your group reseated. If stadium staff cannot accommodate a reseating, then your group will be asked to leave.
AGAIN, YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO REMAIN IN OUR SECTION, AND WE DON'T CARE HOW IT WORKS IN OTHER AMERICAN SPORTS. WE NEGOTIATED THIS GROUP RATE, WE ORGANIZED THIS TRIP, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE TO ANYONE FOR ANY REASON. -yes, we're pretty serious about this.
The MLS established procedure for those holding away supporter tickets is to remain in our section for up to 20 minutes while the home fans are cleared from the concourses. When the match ends, we ask that you scoot to the interior of our section as to avoid any contact with home fans. We remain until stadium security gives us the instruction to leave, and then we all leave together.
Eternal Blue Forever Green,
ECS Travel Monkey

I can't predict what this coming year will be like but it feels like I shouldn't think too much about it. Just go with the flow and trust my ongoing fortune.
Wishing all you Jewies, a bright and adventurous year filled with lots of fortune cookies and unknown treasures.

A transcript is a complete copy of the student's academic record at the time that it is issued. It contains all course work, including undergraduate, graduate and/or non-degree, taken while enrolled at NC State University.
NC State only issues official transcripts at the authorization or written request of the student concerned. NC State will NOT issue a partial transcript; the university automatically sends all course work when a transcript is requested.
New Transcript Design
Paper transcripts printed after August 11, 2016 have a new look that aligns the transcript with the appearance of our e-transcript. The new design allows for easier scanning by recipients, but still maintains several safety features to ensure the integrity of the document. The transcript is printed on "wolf" gray paper with visible red and blue colored fibers in the actual paper stock. A chain link fence watermark embedded in the paper fibers will be visible by holding it up to the light and the ink and paper have features that expose counterfeiting efforts.

Cyber attacks are becoming increasingly common across the globe. Many Fortune 2000 companies as well as government agencies around the world are under frequent cyber attack of their core systems and services.
Cybercrime is a relatively new phenomenon but because of its recent scale and game-changing implications for both government and industry it is rapidly becoming the dominant risk theme of the 21st century.
The opportunity for cyber attacks grows daily as corporations and governments continue to amass information about individuals in complex networks across the Web. At the same time new generations of cyber activists, some motivated purely by money and others by the desire to expose and destabilize corporations and governments, continue to hack into organizational secrets.
No enterprise, no matter how small or benign, will ever be safe from attack in the future, with an estimated 250,000 site breaches reported in the last few years.
Cybercriminals are fast becoming a threat that rivals terrorist groups like al Qaeda, according to the the FBI Director Mueller.
"Terrorism does remain the FBI's top priority, but in the not too-distant-future we anticipate that the cyberthreat will pose the greatest threat to our country," FBI Director Robert Mueller said while speaking to security professionals at the recent RSA conference in San Francisco.
"Today, terrorists have not used the Internet to launch a full-scale cyberattack, but we cannot underestimate their intent," he said.
After 9/11 the FBI invested heavily to develop new skill sets and formed more than 100 joint anti-terrorism task forces with other government agencies, military branches and local law enforcement organizations.
The FBI is following a similar model to fight cybercriminals. They have formed a dedicated cybersecurity squad in each of its 56 field offices and has 1,000 dedicated agents and analysts working on identifying Web threats, Mueller said.
They focus on three key threat groups: terrorists, organized crime rings and state-sponsored cyber espionage.
In general there are three main groups of hackers:
1. The State sponsored hackers include China, Iran, Russia, Estonia, Israel. They are increasing the cyberwar stakes with its Stuxnet attack on the nuclear facilities of Iran, Indonesia, North Korea and Syria. Simultaneously, dictatorial regimes across the world, from Syria to Saudi Arabia have introduced extreme punitive measures to monitor and control access by dissidents, particularly during the Arab Spring.
At times they have often coerced US and European technology companies to assist them, including Siemens- in the cross-hairs for assisting the autocratic Government of Bahrain track down dissidents.
2. The White hats are independent freelance hacker groups such as Anonymous/LulzSec. Their aim according to their manifesto is to expose the corruption and greed inherent in the playbooks of big business and rogue regimes powered by hyper-capitalism and intent on plundering the natural resources of the planet. They also support whistle-blower groups such as WikiLeaks and social activist groups in general.
3. The Black hats have much more clearly defined goals, from overtly criminal to destructive and anarchistic. They are aiming their attacks primarily on the Midas riches of credit card and financial databases across the globe, at the same time as China and Russia are hacking other Government's IP, email and trade secrets.
Mueller did not mention China by name, but their prominence on the threat landscape was a common topic at this week's conference.
"State-sponsored hackers are patient and calculating," Mueller said. "They have the time, money and resources to burrow in and wait. You may discover one breach only to find that the real damage has been done at a much higher level."
Mueller brought forward a request for RSA's attendees to work togehter with the FBI in developing new methods to attack the problem and share experiences.
Many businesses do not wish to openly report security breaches. They see them as a shameful sign of weakness.
Companies, especially publicly traded ones would rather handle problems privately than risk exposure and a time consuming investigation by an outside regulating industry agency. The latest trend by most fortune 2000 companies has been to hire a CISO with dedicated staff to thwart future and repeat cyber attacks at their organizations.
According to Mueller, "There are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked, and those that will be. Even that is merging into one category: those that have been hacked and will be again," he told the crowd. "Maintaining a code of silence will not serve us in the long run."

My friend just called me and asked me how do you tell the difference between FP or SV. I said a fever. That's all I could think of. Are there any other signs? I find this really confusing!!! This is the overview of the situation she was asking about. Her sister was eating a soup like Mr.Noodle, and she said it tasted funny, but she ate it all. Three hours later she was v*ing and had d* every half hour and this happend all night. They didn't have a thermometer, but she had the chills. She woke up this morning and was fine. What does it sound like to you? I think my friend is becoming more like an emet because of me[img]smileys/smilies_09.gif[/img].
I'm just wondering how you can get FP from a ready made soup???
