Play and See if You Can Make a Critical Deal
LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - February 11, 2016) - Creative Negotiating has released Negotiating on Thin Ice: The Zamboni Game, a free, online negotiating game.
Negotiation skills are essential in business and in life, but they are not easy to come by. This engaging new game from Mobus Creative Negotiating helps people develop skills through risk-free practice and learn important negotiating lessons along the way.
Included on the game's webpage are videos that serve as a mini-course and introduction to strategies and tactics of negotiation.
The player's task is to help Wade, who has a serious problem. If he can't purchase a high-end Zamboni ice-resurfacing machine, his arena will lose the contract to host the Lubbock Leapin' Lizards hockey team. Wade used his life savings to buy the arena; without the team's contract, he'll be ruined. He's about to meet with the owner of a mint-condition Zamboni. The problem is that Wade can't afford the asking price.
By playing and replaying a simulated negotiation, the player can see how different choices lead to different results. A creative negotiator can win the game by helping Wade cut a deal and save his season.
"Over the years, I've taught thousands of business executives to be better negotiators," said Frank Mobus, CEO. "Many people have difficulty with negotiating, which is all about navigating conflict. But in Negotiating on Thin Ice: The Zamboni Game, there's no need for anxiety. People can dive right in and try different things. And as they do, they'll learn just by playing."
Mobus's mission is to help people become better negotiators. "It's a valuable life skill," he said. "We all do it many times a day, in business and in our personal lives. So why not try to learn how to do it better?"

text: Northman: 3 months in (39 years old) Trying to gather information and planning to track my progress as I begin to try and do something about my hair loss. I'm 38 years old and first started noticing that I was losing my hair when I was about 19. I've lost most of my frontal hairline and have thinning throughout the upper scalp with more in the back, but no bald spots there yet. Some coverage everywhere back of about halfway on my head. For the last two years I have considered myself functionally bald and essentially keep my head cropped down to 1/4" to 1/8". I just started applying minoxodil 5% yesterday and have some finasteride en route. I plan to take 1.25 dose daily once I have the meds. I'll be trying to get some pictures added as I am having a hard time really evaluating my loss, and I want to have a good baseline for how my hair MAY improve. I'm guessing I'm closest to a 4A on the Norwood scale and figure I'm destined for a 5a or 6 without treatment. Surgery for me is cost prohibitive and have other concerns with it. Add: I've added some photos. Fresh 1/4 inch hair cut this morning. My best hope is that I could somehow get back to that 2005-6 range, but we shall see.

Life after death – what a concept!
Isaiah 53: Life, life, and more life.
Isaiah prophetically sees the Suffering Servant, the man born to die for the sins of the world. He also sees, maybe not with total clarity, life after death for the Messiah. From our common point of view following death there's deterioration. Even as Isaiah describes the terrible destruction of the Suffering Servant, he finds himself talking about abundant life. Our understanding of what happened at, and after, Calvary isn't superior to Isaiah's but we do have a clearer knowledge of those events. Jesus goes to the cross and there suffers and dies for the sins of the human race. His lifeless body is then placed in a tomb. Then, early on Sunday morning, the after-death process is abruptly halted. Rather than deterioration, life, new life, springs forth. Resurrection! That's reason enough for Isaiah to conclude his mourning over the death of the Messiah with a surprising "life oriented" twist. However, there's even more. As the suffering and death of Jesus is for us, so is his resurrection. We have hope of spiritual and physical life beyond this world because of what happens at that tomb. At one point Jesus says that he came that we might have abundant life. That promise is made sure the first Easter morning. Isaiah's vision of "life, life, and more life" not only tells the story of the Suffering Servant, it's our story too.
Take Away: As the suffering and death of Jesus is for us, so is his resurrection.

The Australian Classification board has officially refused classification for Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, effectively barring the upcoming downloadable release from being sold in the country in its current form, thanks to what the board describes as the "visual depiction of implied sexual violence."
In a report on the decision, the Australian Classification Board website cites a National Classification Code rule barring classification for games that "depict, express, or otherwise deal with matters of sex, drug misuse or addiction, crime, cruelty, violence, or revolting or abhorrent phenomena in such a way that they offend against the standards of morality, decency, and propriety generally accepted by reasonable adults."
A more detailed report obtained by Kotaku Australia goes into much greater detail on at least one scene that led to the rating refusal (warning, graphic descriptions of sexual violence in the excerpt below):
In the sequence of game play footage titled Midnight Animal, the protagonist character bursts into what appears to be a movie set and explicitly kills 4 people, who collapse to the floor in a pool of copious blood, often accompanied by blood splatter. After stomping on the head of a fifth male character, he strikes a female character wearing red underwear. She is knocked to the floor and is viewed lying face down in a pool of copious blood. The male character is viewed with his pants halfway down, partially exposing his buttocks. He is viewed pinning the female down by the arms and lying on top of her thrusting, implicitly raping her (either rear entry or anally) while her legs are viewed kicking as she struggles beneath him. This visual depiction of implied sexual violence is emphasised by it being mid-screen, with a red backdrop pulsating and the remainder of the screen being surrounded by black.
The above report seems to be describing the game's opening scene (viewable in context here around the 0:40 mark), which first drew controversy in 2013, after being shown at trade show demos of the game.
In a statement published in response to the decision, developer Dennaton games and publisher Devolver Digital said they "have no plans to officially challenge the ruling." That said, they take issue with the rating's board's description of the scene in question.
We are concerned and disappointed that a board of professionals tasked with evaluating and judging games fairly and honestly would stretch the facts to such a degree and issue a report that describes specific thrusting actions that are not simply present in the sequence in question and incorrectly portrays what was presented to them for review.
The developers also note that players are given an option at the start of the game to "avoid content that alludes to sexual violence," adding that they stand by their "creative vision for the storyline, its characters and the game and look forward to delivering Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number to fans very soon."
The developers at Dennaton told Rock Paper Shotgun in 2013 that they were considering editing that scene after what they said was an unexpected reaction from many survivors of sexual assault following the game's first public demonstrations.
"We were really sad that some people were so affected by it, because maybe they had been through something like that of their own," Dennaton's Dennis Wedin told RPS at the time. "Maybe they had a terrible experience of their own that was triggered by the game. That was not intentional at all. We didn't add the scene just to be controversial. There is a meaning to these two characters. There's a lot more to them than just this scene."Hotline Miami 2 is the fourth game to be refused classification in Australia since the country approved the R18+ rating in 2013, though State of Decay, Saints Row 4 and South Park: The Stick of Truth were all released in the country after edits. Before the R18+ rating, games including Postal, Fallout 3, and Left 4 Dead 2 were refused classification.
Last month, Target and K-mart Australia decided to stop selling Grand Theft Auto V in their stores, following an online petition decrying the game's use of sexual violence.

Fitness n. – the quality or state of being physically fit; the quality of being suitable, qualified or morally fit for something.
These definitions come from "The Canadian Oxford" dictionary. When I sit with the definitions, particularily the second I can't help but correlate it to healthy self esteem. That when one feels the "quality or state of being physically fit" – one naturally feels qualified, suitable and able. That is not to say that one who is not fit is not worthy, but the state of being in oneself will be augmented, (particularly one's Self Esteem) when one is fit. Certainly there are numerous reports, both scientific and general that espouse the benefits of a regular fitness routine. Let's face it our bodies are meant to MOVE. So get out and walk – the easiest way to begin a fitness routine. Walking is an easy, accessible, affordable exercise that WORKS! Walking builds muscle and bone, reduces stress, burns calories and improves overall health. Most women can burn as many as 550 calories an hour walking, and encouragingly are up to doing it again the following day.
Walking is replenishing and as such doesn't burn you out like other routines/programs may. There is very little risk of injury involved.
Fitting in a walk a day may mean getting up a half hour earlier, or walking to the store instead of driving, however by including a walk into your daily routine you'll immediately feel the results. Use walking as a stress burner instead of resorting to a cocktail or the TV. While it is summer you have the added pleasure of beautiful late night walks, especially beneficial for those who want to loose weight. To have walking compliment your weight loss program make sure you are walking at a brisk pace for at least 25 minutes – this is the time it takes for your metabolism to shift. If you are on holiday, schedule walks in with all the family and guests. Walking is a wonderful way to enjoy each other's company, the dawn or night sky, and reinforce good habits.
I believe it was Ghandi who said "Walk, and keep on walking for you will eventually walk into your destiny. Walking is a simple and yet profound medium to allow the power of movement to return us to the stillness.

Ezekiel 15:8 And I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass, saith the Lord GOD.
The land will be made desolate. The reason is that they have sinned against God. God loves His people. He is a God of grace but that doesn't mean that He allows us to sin without their being any consequences. Obviously here He is talking to a nation but the principle applies to us as individuals as well.
If we willfully sin knowing better we can expect consequences. Let's take the warning and avoid the suffering.

Out if personal interest I made another performance test. This time I targeted a more complex function that was written to import a huge table of transcriptions and metadata about all the letters from an EXCEL file. The importing from EXCEL is very easy thanks to the Python's xlrd module. Each row in the EXCEL file contains the transcription of a letter page and metadata of the letter, but this means that in case if there are more than one page of a letter the metadata is duplicated. My function loops over the rows in the EXCEL table and creates Letter objects (my custom class to represent letters). The function merges multiple pages of the same letter and adds them to the same Letter object, tokenizes the transcriptions and cleans the text from XML-like markup and punctuation. The final step is to store all the Letter objects to a file using Pythons shelve module. In that way all these objects do not have to stay in memory.
My approach approach for the storage is to save all the Letter objects in a dictionary, with the letter id's as keys and than push the whole dictionary to the shelve file. Worked quite well and was not too slow (considering the amount of letters and what the function has to do).
The function took nearly 19 – 21 seconds (based on three tests) to run over about 2200 entries in the EXCEL file, create 850 letter objects, add the letters to a dictionary, clean the transcriptions and merge them if they are from the same letter, and finally store everything in a shelve file. This is not too bad considering that most of the time (13.3) seconds was used by the xlrd.open_workbook(filename=file_path, encoding_override="utf-8″) function, that retrieves the data from the EXCEL file, and creates a handy to use workbook object. And Python cp1252.py decode took also quite long. Furthermore, a lot of time was spend creating the letter objects (1.6) and cleaning and adding the transcriptions (2.6). There might be some opportunity for optimization – I might come back to revising this function later in the project.
The stored shelve dictionary contains now a dictionary with all the letter objects. Out of curiosity I wrote a second function that does all the steps that the first one does, but instead of creating a dictionary and than storing it, each letter object will be stored in the shelve file when it is created. The shelve file is after all dictionary-like. I assumed that it might take a bit longer, and was surprised how long it actually took.
Nearly 60 seconds!!! That was three times the time of the other function. After I had a look at the statistics returned by cProfile I found that most time was spend calling the keys() method on the shelve file in order to retrieve the keys (= letter ids) that were already stored. Not sure why this happened. Is it because keys() returns a list, instead of a faster data structure, like a set? Still 40 seconds more is very significant. Could it have something to do with DeadlockWrap?
d = shelve.open("letters.shelve") #Than follows the for loop that gets the data from the EXCEL file and prepares it for storage if letter_id not in d.keys(): #This is the interesting part: if the letter id is not already used d[letter_id] = l # as key in the shelve file add a new letter object d.sync() # the shelve file has to be synced in order to ensure object is written to the file d.close() # and closed after the for-loop
Interesting was that by replacing the d.keys() with a set 's' that stores all the keys of letter objects – s.update(letter_id), it took the function less than half of the time, even if every object is written to the shelve file directly:
It is still not as fast as my first solution, and will probably never be, because of the numerous calls to the shelve file and the constant sync. It was however interesting to see how a small change like replacing d.keys() with the set 's' can have so tremendous effects.

Hello lovelies.
I was super excited to open today's door as I am every other day and i was super happy with what was inside. It's a gorgeous neautral shimmery eyeshadow which is perfect for the festive season.
Dont kill me but I didnt take a picture with the eyeshadow on! I tried but it wasn't picking up the true colour and when I tried to swatch it, it still wasn't getting the colour right so I'm gonna try and do one in natural day light so you guys can see how stunning it is. For now I'll show you a picture.
This is in the colour wheatsheaf. It a beautiful nude colour which gold shimmer inside. When this baby catches the light it looks amazing. It's a really soft eyeshadow and goes onto the brush very easily as I find most No7 eye shadows do. That's always a plus. It doesn't have fall out either which I love. Nothing worse than putting on your eyeshadow and next thing it's all over your cheeks. Never a good look ladies.
I'm really please with today's pressie that was inside my advent calendar. I will be using this a lot even after the Christmas season. Well done No7 your making me a very happy girl =)
Just a side note. The primer I got in yesterday's glossy box I just wanted to say I do like but I don't feel like it does that much. It did make my skin look a bit smoother but not like I'd been photoshopped. Which I guess is good. Nobody wants to look like that do they? Or do they aha.
I still think I prefer the Benefit Porefessional primer so I don't think I'll be rushing out to buy the No7 primer any time soon! Sorry guys.
Thank you so much for reading and I'll speak to you tomorrow ♥

The Best Nasi Briyani in Ipoh?May 5, 2010 | 26,261 views
Nasi Briyani Ayam Anarkali – For about a quarter of a century (since 1985), Restoran M. Salim has been serving their famous brand of Nasi Kandar and Nasi Briyani in Ipoh; with 3 branches to date.
I admit that I am a sucker for good Nasi Briyani. Those long-grained, fluffy and fragrant Basmati rice cooked with loads of herbs and spices, sometimes together with your meat of choice (usually chicken or mutton); whereby in this case the rice and meat ensemble might be known as a "pullao" or "pilaf." But commonly, we have our plates of Nasi Briyani served separately from the curry(s) of your choice.
If you're a local, you couldn't have missed this "white and green" restaurant situated at the junction of Jalan Yang Kalsom and Jalan Che Tak in Ipoh.
I heard many positive reviews on A.K. Nasi Kandar, where they're supposed to serve the BEST Nasi Briyani in Ipoh. Tough luck, for I found A.K.'s version being almost too bland and boring when eaten as it is, without the 'supporting characters' of curries and vegetables. Yes, good Briyani should be tasty enough to be eaten plain, sans the extra ingredients, and the whiff of spices and condiments alone can send one to Briyani heaven …. IF, there ever was one.
And so, I ended up at Restoran M. Salim on Jalan Yang Kalsom in Ipoh, to seek for greener pastures. No, I was NOT searching for recruitment opportunities, in case you're confused. I was merely looking for a worthy plate of Nasi Biryani in Ipoh to be relished on a hot Sunday afternoon.
Curious on how my experience at M.Salim was? Read on to find out ….
A huge chunk of Ayam Goreng Rempah (Fried Chicken with Spices and Curry Leaves) with half a boiled salted egg, some refreshing cuts of cucumber, a dollop of Salim's famous 'sambal' (chili paste) and a plethora of gravies drenching the rice.
YES. A resounding YES, for that matter. I was enticed the moment I scooped a spoonful of the rice into my mouth. Fragrant, light and fluffy, with nuances of spices, herbs and various condiments, the Nasi Briyani was exactly how I envisioned a good Briyani to be. And it has been so long since I've tasted sumptuous ones in Ipoh. And you know those annoying Nasi Briyani elsewhere, when you repeatedly bite into bits and pieces of spices (cardamom, cinnamon, cumin seeds etc) in every spoonful; overwhelming the taste of this rather delicate rice dish? M. Salim's version was thankfully not loaded with that much spices, or maybe they singled them out before serving the rice to the customers.
The name of this signature of theirs is Nasi Briyani Ayam Anarkali. A mouthful, eh? Anarkali refers to the superior grade of Basmati rice used in this dish, and very seldom do you see this term in the many Nasi Kandar outlets serving Nasi Briyani in Ipoh. Or anywhere else for that matter.
The accompanying piece of chicken (the whole upper thigh was given) was not of the curried variety, but instead a simpler, but equally lip-smacking steamed chicken with spices that was very tender and tasty; belying its stark presentation. A plate for RM6.50/USD2.00, I felt satisfied with the portion and the quality of the Briyani.
Recklessly scooped and dolloped on the side of the melamine plate, do NOT look down on this killer of a 'sambal' at M.Salim.
And the dollop of special Salim's sambal (chili paste pounded with coconut shreds, and other spices) completed their prized ensemble of Nasi Briyani, a piece of Chicken, some cuts of cucumber and optional gravies smothered on the chicken and/or rice. Being sweet-ish and 'child-friendly', rest assured you won't be breathing fire and sweating (unlike the deadly Yong Suan's gravy!!!) after tasting their 'sambal' here.
Restoran M. Salim is an Indian-Muslim restaurant, hence the food is perfectly HALAL.
The restaurant also serves a rather famed curry fish head, various curries and dishes with rice (ala Nasi Kandar style), a respectable array of "Roti's" (roti canai, telur, bawang and the likes) but only before 11.30am, the "mamak" evergreens like Mee Goreng, Maggi Goreng, Mutton/Chicken Soup, and even Mee Rojak and Pasembur.
"I might have found the BEST Nasi Briyani in Ipoh. Or have I? Someone prove me wrong, please … so I can continue my hunt!" 🙂

Address: Via Masetto Vecchio, 38055 Grigno TN, Italia
General Regulation
In case of tie between two or more riders, either in the semi-finals or in the final, in order to decide you must look at the qualification score. The highest ranked rider will have a higher position in the rank. In the case of tie during qualification, it will be the score you get in aggressiveness to prevail, if this last is the same, the "flow" score will decide the rank.
How to execute a run
Each rider can train in a warm up area before his run. When he starts his turn, the rider must stand at the entrance of the track. After the sign of the race manager (commissioner), the rider enters the race zone to perform a 30-second warm-up. At the end of this time, the track commissioner raises the flag and the rider must place himself on the starter line to start his round. The commissioner checks that the judges are ready. After the check, the commissioner raises the flag and the run can start, the timer is started for a definite duration (3m for qualification and 3m for a semi-final or final). At 30 seconds from the end, the race commissioner holds the raised flag without moving it. At the end of the execution time, the commissioner waves the flag.
Run Time
1. Qualification
The running time is 30 seconds for warm-up followed by 3 minutes of run.
2. Semifinal and final
The running time is 30 seconds of warm-up followed by 3 minutes of run. Semi-final and final will be played in two rounds. The score for the two runs will be summed to determine the final score.
Judgment of every run
1. Generality
The maximum score of a race is 120 points. The rider's score must be given at the end of his run.
How Points are assigned
1. Technique: 40 points
Four categories: wheeling, stoppie, trick, run / drift.
Each category has a final score of 10 points.
The judge must observe all the figures presented by the rider according to a predefined table:
- Basic trick 0.5 points
- Technical tricks 1 point
- Very technical tricks 1.5 points
- Exceptional trick 2 points
For each figure performed (for example, "circle no hand" is 1 point), the judge can add or remove up to 0.25 points, depending on whether the figure has been performed with perfect self-control or with hesitation. For the passage from one trick to another and for the set of "combo" tricks, the judge will score from 0.25 to 0.5 points depending on whether the transition from one figure to another is performed (naturally). And also according on its complexity. Each trick is counted once for each race. Circle trick can only be counted if the trick lasts a minimum of one turn, otherwise the score will be counted as a combo (from 0.25 to 0.5). All tricks that count 1 error are not counted.
2. Errors (Execution): 20 points
Starting point: 20 points
- Foot to the ground -0.25 points (except for the trick that sets a foot on the ground for example spin)
- Motor unintentionally interrupted: - 0.75 points
- motorcycle on the ground, the rier does not leave the falling bike: - 3 points
- motorcycle on the ground, the rider leaves the bike : - 5 points
3. Flow and aggression: 40 points
The flow is about the fact that all the figures are connected with each other and with a sense of continuity, that is, everything is done fluidly. The rider must play his figures without inactive time. The judge must register the number of times the driver interrupts his run, that is, the number of interruptions in the sequences that he executes and subtracts 1 point from the starting point (20 points for the flow). Aggressiveness is the fact that the driver is always at the limit, it must be a masterly controlled aggression. The rider must try to maximize the potential of his bike and of the track. This means a speed of execution, an amplitude, an angle search, a grip, a stoppie height, respecting the boundaries of the circuit. The judge will award a score of up to 20 points for the entire run.
4. Overall: 20 points
The total is evaluated on different criteria:
- The track occupancy is rated at 4 points. The driver must occupy the whole track.
- Involvement with the audience and applause are awarded on 2 points
- The greeting to the judges is 1 point. Once in the track, the driver has to greet the judges, in this way he shows he can compete.
- Choreography is marked on 12 points. The run of the rider must tell a story, he must make his skills credible (for example: do not start with tricky tricks and end up with basic tricks).
Technical regulation
1. Rider equipment
CE approved homologated helmet
Reinforced trousers with leg protector
Elbow protections
Dorsal protector integrated into the shirt or tied

Due to significant demand, Prestige Food Trucks of Orlando, Florida has recently expanded its operations to include small to large restaurant chains/franchises.
"Over the past two years, many small to large restaurant chains/franchises have shown significant interest in taking their brand/restaurant to the food truck industry," stated Tracy Stein-CEO/President for Prime Pinnacle.
Mr. Stein further states the rise in popularity is because restaurant chains/franchises have begun to see the big picture in getting into the food truck business by studying, researching, and recognizing the following opportunities:
- Franchises can extend their brand recognition immediately and exponentially while earning loyalty from their new customers early on
- New locations for future Brick-And-Mortar Restaurants can be scouted out to gain important data on location and demographics for additional franchisee value and security
- Mobile/Roaming Billboard for Advertising/Promotions/Marketing
- Testing and data gathering on new menu items and concepts for mass-production
- Additional Profit Center
Prime Pinnacle's research/data have shown that over 15% of the Top 200 restaurant chains have a mobile café / food truck presence. That's a tremendously strong statement as to the value of a mobile brand extension. The trend is increasing daily as many well-known chains and franchises have already jumped into the game. These include Cousins Submarines, Inc; Tasti D-Lite Frozen Yogart; Toppers Pizza; Jack in The Box; Sizzler; Red Robin; Chick-fil-A, Star Diner;The Gap; The Habit Burger & Grill; Taco Bell; Applebee's; Dairy Queen, Subway, Qdoba, California Pizza Kitchen, Carl's Jr.; In-N-Out Burger, Fatburger; Grandolfo's New York Delicatessen; Banna-Stow's Crepes & Coffee; and more.
The restaurant industry is highly competitive and establishing and maintaining brand loyalty and recognition early is key.
The chain restaurants/franchises are aware that the cost to buy/build a food truck pales in comparison compared to opening a brick-and-mortar store, with much higher profit margins. Stein stated, "Food trucks serve as mobile billboards as well which is very enticing to the franchise/chain owners as they can spend between $50,000 – $200,000 + per month on advertising alone. With a mobile food truck their visibility increases exponentially."
And one food truck manufacturer has begun to see the feasting begin to gain market share. "The food truck industry is here to stay and will be growing by leaps and bounds in order to keep up and meet consumer demand. With that more evident now than ever, small to large chain restaurants/franchises are jumping on board and moving their brands out into main stream and rural America," Says Mr. Stein. "It's an exciting thing to watch."
Prestige Food Trucks builds, sells, buys, repairs, rehabs, finances, leases and rents premium quality food trucks/mobile cafes & trailers to a wide range of clientele from sole-proprietors to nationwide chains. Their commitment is to offer complete turnkey development to their customers, from building to branding to getting on the street.

Last night, actress and director Angelina Jolie hit the red carpet with her daughter Shiloh and Zahara Jolie-Pitt at the National Board of Review Awards Gala in NYC.
It was the first public appearance for Shiloh after she broke her arm over the holidays.
Though her arm was in a black sling, Shiloh was still able to smile for the camera and show off her braces!
Zahara, who celebrated her 13th birthday on Monday, also sported braces at the gala, which honored Angelina with the Freedom of Expression Award for her work on "First They Killed My Father."
Angelina has been quite busy this award season, attending the Golden Globes with son Pax on Sunday while Shiloh was out shopping in Los Feliz.

Can an Onion Charge an iPod?
Will an onion soaked in Gatorade charge an MP3 player?
Can an onion soaked in Gatorade really charge an iPod?
Here at ABCNews.com, we just had to find out.
According to this YouTube video that has so far been viewed more than 7 million times, a white onion left to absorb the electrolytes found in Gatorade produces enough electrical current to charge an iPod.
We were a bit skeptical.
Click Here to Watch the ABCNews.com Test.
Per the video, we purchased the necessary ingredients -- a small, white onion and two cups of Gatorade -- and found a USB cord with a working iPod. With the items in hand, we set out to determine whether the claim was fact or fiction.
Following the guidelines set forth in the YouTube video, we punctured the onion on two sides using a screw driver. According to "Household Hacker," the alias of the individual who filmed and posted the experiment online, the holes are necessary for the onion to absorb the Gatorade.
After about 30 minutes we removed the onion from the glass of Gatorade and got ready to insert the USB cord into the onion. The music swells – would it really charge the iPod?
The answer is a disappointing "no."
The iPod didn't even flicker to life, let alone begin to charge. The MP3 player remained off and we were left with a soggy onion and a glass of tainted Gatorade.
This appears to be an iFraud.
While Household Hacker did not immediately respond to messages from ABCNews.com to discuss the experiment, Adam Savage, co-host of The Discovery Channel's "Mythbusters," wasn't shy when it came to debunking the theory.
"It's total horses**t," said Savage, who offered to pay this reporter $100 if the experience had been a success.
Is the Onion an Alternative iPod Charger?
"Just sticking a USB cord into an onion is like plugging an appliance into the ground or the dirt," he said.
According to Savage, even if there was a certain acidity from the electrolytes found in Gatorade, a path for the electrons to travel is still missing. The experiment may have worked, said Savage, if we -- and the YouTube scientist -- had used a zinc or copper electrode to produce an electric current.
"I do appreciate the different lengths people go to on YouTube to prove things that they want to be true," said Savage. "This is so divorced from reality it's not worth discussing."
Alas, for those iPod users looking to charge their device prior to the holiday weekend -- beware. All you'll get is tears if you try an onion.

Airway: Pratiques UK en Helmand
A review of pre-admission advanced airway management in combat casualties, Helmand Province 2013
Pugh HE et Al. J R Army Med Corps. 2015 Jun;161(2):121-6.
Il faut savoir intuber et ouvrir un cou. Ce qui fait la médicalisation de l'avant n'est pas la présence d'un docteur en médecine mais d'un professionnel de santé ayant la pratique de gestes de réanimation préhospitalière et capable de les mettre en oeuvre de faon opportune. La gestion des voies aériennes en est l'exemple.
Airway compromise is the third leading cause of potentially preventable combat death. Pre-hospital airway management has lower success rates than in hospital. This study reviewed advanced airway management focusing on cricothyroidotomies and supraglottic airway devices in combat casualties prior to admission to a Role 3 Hospital in Afghanistan.
This was a retrospective review of all casualties who required advanced airway management prior to arrival at the Role 3 Hospital, Bastion, Helmand Province over a 30-week period identified by the US Joint Theatre Trauma Registry. The notes and relevant X-rays were analysed. The opinions of US and UK clinical Subject Matter Experts (SME) were then sought.
Fifty-seven advanced airway interventions were identified. 45 casualties had attempted intubations, 37 (82%) were successful and of those who had failed intubations, one had a King LT Airway (supraglottic device) and seven had a rescue cricothyroidotomy. The other initial advanced airway interventions were five attempted King LT airways and seven attempted cricothyroidotomies. In total, 14 cricothyroidotomies were performed; in this group, there were nine complications/significant events.
The SMEs suggested that dedicated surgical airway kits should be used and students in training should be taught to secure the cricothyroidotomy tube as well as how to insert it. This review re-emphasises the need to 'ensure the right person, with the right equipment and the right training, is present at the right time if we are to improve the survival of patients with airway compromise on the battlefield'. The audit reference number is RCDM/Res/Audit/1036/12/0368.

I want to play for Malta – Ryan BaldacchinoTuesday, April 20, 2010, 8:00
by Joshua Cacciattolo
Ten years ago, I used to look forward to playing a football manager computer game daily as soon as I got home from school. The surname Baldacchino always stood out from the rest of the Blackburn squad, and I used to wonder whether he was Maltese, or of Maltese descent. I hadn't thought about Blackburn's Baldacchino in years, until about a year ago. I was watching Sunday Sports on television, a programme which focused on searching for foreign players of Maltese descent.
Two months ago I spoke with Sandro Micallef about this player and the possibility of contacting him. I managed to make online contact with him and his reply was: "At the moment I am a free agent because my contract in Australia has finished and next season I want to play in the Maltese premier league and hopefully also for the national team. I want to make my family proud. My great granddad is Maltese, his name is Guiseppe Baldacchino. I am relocating to Malta on the 6th May. In the past I was called up to play for the national team against France but my passport was not ready in time and I decided to continue my club career, so now I need to make up for the lost time."
In the coming days the ex-Gretna star is going to send us his DVDs. Interested clubs can contact this website on email@example.com and ask for a copy of these DVDs.
In the meantime, who is Ryan Baldacchino?
Born 13 January 1981 in Leicester is an English/Maltese midfielder .
Ryan started his footballing career at Blackburn Rovers in 1996 as a promising right and left winger. He went on to win the U17 Premier League and reach the FA youth cup final against Everton playing against a strong team in front of 25,000 that consisted of Leon Osman, Francis Jeffers, Richard Dunne and Michael Ball. Ryan went on to become a reserve team regular in forthcoming seasons and was rewarded with a four year professional contract.
He soon transferred to Premier League rival Bolton Wanderers. Sam Allardyce made Ryan a late signing in March 2000 as comparisons to fellow ex teamates Damian Duff and David Dunn were made by his new boss and assistant Phil Brown. He was awarded squad number 33. With pace to burn and accurate crossing ability Ryan soon showed his potential in Bolton's reserve side and pre season games for the first team. He left Bolton Wanderers after only 18 months however, the arrivals of Jay-Jay Okocha, Youri Djorkaeff and many more big signings that summer making it difficult to break through for the youngster.
In 2001 Carlisle signed Baldacchino on a three year deal. Ryan was an instant hit with the club with an outstanding display of pace and trickery to help defeat Southend United away. Ryan was a regular for Carlisle before being prized away by Brooks Mileson and the mega spending power of Scottish new boys Gretna.
Gretna won everything in sight and dominated wherever they played. Scottish Third, Second and First division titles were won by Baldacchino in consecutive seasons, with Ryan being one of the star players along with Kenny Deuchar, Gavin Skelton and Chris Innes. Those four players gained the prestigious accolade of being the only four players in 100 years of Scottish history to play in all Scottish divisions with the same team. Baldacchino won most Man of the Matches, Goal of the Season and had a UEFA Cup goal on his way up the divisions. An impressive display against Dunfermline in the Scottish Cup in front of Celtic manager Gordon Strachan earned Baldacchino rave reviews. Hibs, Motherwell and Celtic all had regular checks on Baldacchino. Brooks Mileson once again showed his spending power and ambition by keeping hold of Baldacchino and he signed a new improved four year deal in December 2005 making him one of the clubs top earners. Gretna arrived in style to the SPL breaking all records on their way and many players staying loyal to Gretna turning away potential big money moves on the way.
The season 2007-2008 was to be Gretna's last year as a club as they bowed out at the top when owner Brooks Mileson fell ill in late February. Ryan was given squad number 7 and played against Rangers and Celtic that season as Gretna struggled to cope with life in the top flight. They were relegated at the end of the season.
Baldacchino transferred to VPL club Altona Magic in May 2008 and one year later he signed for New South Wales Premier League outfit Bonnyrigg White Eagles.

Of the stereotypical pastimes linked to women throughout the decades, few seem more persistent than the tendency to while away the hours on the telephone. While technology has redefined the way we communicate — and in many ways, made the landline seem like more of a novelty — these ads from eras past remind us of how easily we can be convinced that something we all do, perhaps now more than ever, was favored by one gender over another.
Take the above ad from the 80s, though miles apart, these "besties" do everything over the phone together, including aerobics routines. Perhaps the copy should have read: "Thank goodness for the advent of the extension cord, Emma. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to share my light-headed giddiness with you!"
Below we have ads from the 50s and 60s for the everyday housewife, who understands that the telephone is simply another tool of the trade. But closer examination reveals much more, "Your kitchen telephone looks so bright and beautiful on your wall, but it's much more than that. It's one of the most useful appliances you can have. Color telephones make your most-lived-in-room so much more livable. They let you pamper yourself…"
Image via flickr
Both ads, while very colorful and engaging, reinforced the stereotype that women hardly strayed from the kitchen; the copy only appealed to their sense of decor, as if they would find the actual function secondary to how well the phone might match their drapes. The only real mention of any useful feature is how it hangs on the wall, allowing for more counter space, and more room to prep meals.
Image via Photo of the Day Online
According to the ad above, bedside phones are important for safety, convenience, and comfort. Apparently, there's nothing more comfortable than a hard plastic phone to snuggle up with right before bedtime, and bonus points if it comes in a precious shade of pink! As the copy states, "You know, of course, that a bedside extension phone has its practical, everyday virtues. But a bedside phone has a wonderful bonus as well. Comfort". This ad seems to award more credit to the female consumer and her ability to discern the pros and cons of acquiring a second phone for the same room in the house. But ultimately, it assumes that she'll want that second phone as close to her pillow as possible — and why fight it, when that's all a lady really needs to be safe and comfortable?
What do you think these ads have to say about women and their perceived relationship with the telephone? — By Amy, Customer Care Assistant Lead

As long as I had told my friend Bill about my visit to the US, he talked about taking me on a wilderness trip. So here I had arrived in Minneapolis, and after some last minute shopping (I needed water shoes which I was very happy to have on the trip) we drove north.
In Ely we rented the canoe and drove another half an hour to enter Mudro Lake. A few meters after the parking lot we lost the cars from our sight and entered the wilderness. We launched the canoe with all our supplies for the next few days and paddled towards an outdoor adventure.
After a few portages we reached our destination: Fourtown Lake. We paddled to the north side of it to find a camp site away from most of the other campers, but only one campground was available. We set up our camp and went swimming in the wonderful fresh water! After collecting some firewood we started cooking dinner and enjoyed the sunset and the rise of the full moon. Unfortunately, that's when the calmness was gone due to an invasion of mosquitos attacking us. We basically stayed in the tent for the rest of the evening and night. When a storm hit we hoped the mosquitos were gone, but on the contary, the looked for shelter under our tent. The storm was pretty bad with strong winds, lighting and thunder. Out tent was almost blown over several times, but we did not know yet how bad the storm really was. That we realized during the next few days when we not only saw the damage everywhere of fallen trees but also heard that two people got killed in that very same storm.
The next day we moved camp to a better site, higher up and more exposed to the wind in the hope for less mosquitos. For the rest of the day, we did nothing but eat, swim, suntein, sleep and look for firewood for dinner. This was pretty much the course of things for the next 3 days, only interrupted by two excursions to Boot Lake and Horse Lake. The boundary waters are not only an exceptionally beautiful place, but they are incredibly calming and a source of rejuvenating.
The day we left, the weather had changed and we left the lakes on a cloudy day, greeted goodbye from three bald eagles. When we got back to the parking lot, our parked truck was hit by a tree in the front, but we were still able to drive. During the departure from the wilderness, we saw how whole forest areas destroyed by the heavy storm of the first night. The moment we were in reach of cellphone service, we both got a text message from our friend Katie (in Denver), who was the only person that had been worried about us in the storm. We laughed alot and were happy that at least someone had been worried about us.
We drove back to Minneapolis with a stop at Lake Superior (which seems like an ocean) and had some delicious fish on the way.

Grease Comes to ALHS
The "Grease" cast is ready to show off their talents. Nov. 17-19 students will be performing the musical "Grease" in the Albert Lea High School auditorium.
An outsider, Sandy moves to the U.S. and falls in love with Danny. She spends the summer with Danny and ends up going to the same school as him. Due to social cliches, they aren't able to be together.
Justine Nelson, senior, got one of the lead roles in the play. She will be playing Sandy Dumbrowski. Nelson has been involved in the plays "Honk" and "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers" and she has been in a few plays at the Marion Ross Theatre including "The Music Man." She was also recently in a short film "Guilt."
People involved in the musical have different reasons they like to do it. They like to sing, dance, act or meet new people. Nelson's favorite part about the musical is the final product.
"I like seeing it come together because it is kind of stressful," said Nelson.
"You don't really know if everything will go smoothly and then when it does it is really fun."
The cast get close while they do the musical. They see each other every day after school and they form friendships that will last a long time.
"I was in the musical last year and I had a blast," said sophomore Maddie Schei, who plays a teen dropout. "We just become a huge family and I just want to be a part of that again."
Tickets for the musical will go on sale before the show starts every day. You can find them being sold outside of the auditorium.

A reminder that with the first work day of the month is the 11:45 a.m. test of the outdoor siren warning system and live audio broadcast done in conjunction with Hawaii State Civil Defense.
For the purpose of this test, you will hear a 45-second steady tone on all sirens. When you hear the steady tone in circumstances other than a test, turn to any radio or television station for essential emergency information and instructions.
During an actual emergency, these broadcasts will be heard at frequent intervals and may become continuous if need be.
In addition, residents in areas surrounding Campbell Industrial Park, Honokai Hale, Makakilo, Kapolei Regional Park, Kapolei Golf Course, and the Coast Guard Station at Kalaeloa may also hear a "whooping" tone following the siren test. This "whooping" tone is a test of the Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) incident outdoor siren warning group that will be activated in the event of a HAZMAT incident.
With the Adopt-A-Siren smartphone app, it allows users to adopt a tsunami siren in their neighborhood. They will take responsibility for the siren by checking to ensure its functuality and report on the status of the siren to the city. The application also allows users to name their siren and receive an email notification alerting them when the siren will be tested.
If the siren in your community does not sound, or does not operate properly, please call the Department of Emergency Management at 723-8960 to report it. You can also email the department. With more than 170 outdoor warning sirens on Oahu, we appreciate the public's assistance in identifying problem units.
You can also help safeguard the outdoor siren warning system. Please report any acts of vandalism, damages, or missing sirens or components to the Department of Emergency Management at 723-8960. You can alsoemail the department and include any images you may have of the siren in question. Any suspicious activity should be reported immediately to the Honolulu Police Department by calling 9-1-1.
Residents now have the option of reporting malfunctioning or vandalized sirens on-line. Visit the City's Siren Trouble Report page to file your report as well as upload pictures.
Remember, important emergency information including evacuation maps can be found in the Hawaiian Telecom and Paradise Pages telephone directories or on this website.
In addition all Oahu residents are encouraged to sign-up to receive emergency email and cell phone text messages from the Board of Water Supply, Department of Emergency Management and the Honolulu Police Department by signing up with NIXLE. Standard text messaging rates may apply depending on your wireless carrier and plan.
The Department of Emergency Management also encourages our residents to have multiple methods of receiving emergency information. These methods include Nixle email and cell phone text messaging, accessing Emergency Alert System (EAS) messages broadcast over TV and radio and having a NOAA weather radio with Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME). NOAA weather radios can be purchased at most department or electronics stores as well as online.

Business Intelligence Solutions Cause IT Headaches
If you're not satisfied with your business intelligence platform and how your company is using it, you're not alone, according to a new survey from web-based business intelligence software maker LogiXML. The survey finds that while many companies are planning on increasing their BI software spending over the next year, most aren't happy with what they've got. And blame for failed BI implementations, underperformance and the system's inability to meet the users' needs falls on the shoulders of IT departments. "The findings we've compiled suggest that the overall need for BI continues to grow, but that companies are bogged down by traditional BI approaches that contain complex and costly platforms and data manipulation or tool sets with long development cycles-all of which require significant IT involvement," said Brett Jackson, CEO, LogiXML. The survey polled 575 business and IT professionals between March 29 and April 8, 2011 about their experiences with, and plans to implement, business intelligence software solutions. Here are 10 key findings.

If you've ever wondered what God is doing, you should meet Philip.Listen Now
"How can I," he said, "unless someone explains it to me?" So he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.Acts 8:31
Person 1
Person 2
Holy Spirit
Does God ever make mistakes? If you've ever wondered what God is doing, you should meet Philip.
(WALLA: crowd)
(Music transition)
Person 1:
What is going on over there? Why is that crowd of people around that man?
Person 2:
Haven't you heard? That man is Philip. He has come to Samaria to preach about Jesus Christ. He is also healing people — people who have never been able to stand up are now walking.
Person 1:
I want to hear more about this. Let's go closer.
I am not healing this person in my own name, but in the name of Jesus Christ. Jesus, who was sent from God, came to earth to give Himself to save us from our sins. Listen and believe.
(WALLA: Crowd sounds of "Yes, I believe. Tell us more of Jesus..." then fades out)
One day an angel came to Philip and told him to go on a trip.
Philip, I am an angel from the Lord. I have a message for you.
I am listening. Please tell me.
The Lord is telling you to go south to the desert road. It's the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.
I will go immediately.
(Music transition and fade up on sounds of footsteps on gravel/dirt road)
(reverb: whisper) I'm not sure why I'm on this deserted road. I think I'll ask God what He wants me to do.
Father in heaven, you sent me to the country of Samaria to preach about your son Jesus. So many people were being healed by your power. Even more people accepted Jesus as their Savior. So many people wanted to know more about you. But then, you sent an angel to tell me to leave Samaria and walk down this deserted road. I have obeyed you, Father, but I am confused. Please show me your purpose in sending me here. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
(Footsteps continue)
Holy Spirit:
I am the Holy Spirit of God. Look, ahead. Do you see that chariot? Go to that chariot. Stay near it.
I see it. I'll run to it.
(Sounds of footsteps running)
There was only one chariot traveling on this lonely desert road, and in the chariot was an official from the country of Ethiopia. This man was very important in his country because he was in charge of all the wealth that belonged to Candace, the queen of Ethiopia. But, this man was also interested in God.
Excuse me, sir. I see that you are reading the Scriptures — the book of Isaiah. Do you understand what you are reading?
How can I understand it? I've traveled all the way from my country of Ethiopia to the city of Jerusalem to learn more about God. I've read and read about God, but I still don't understand. Can you explain it to me?
Yes, I can.
Please tell me what this means.
I would be honored.
(Sound of Philip climbing aboard, chariot moving)
Here is what I was reading. It says "He was led like a sheep to be killed. Just as lambs are silent while their wool is being cut off, He did not open his mouth. When He was treated badly, He was refused a fair trial. Who can say anything about His children? His life was cut off from earth."
Tell me, please. Who is the prophet Isaiah talking about? Himself or someone else?
Have you heard of Jesus?
No, I haven't.
Philip started at the beginning and told the Ethiopian official the good news about Jesus.
Jesus is the person Isaiah was talking about here. Jesus is God's only Son who was sent to this earth to save us and to bring us back to the grace of our Father in heaven. If you believe in the love that Jesus gives to you, you will be given a new life.
After the official listened carefully to Philip, he believed in Jesus and wanted to be baptized.
That is a wonderful idea.
(Sound of chariot stopping and then men entering water)
Dear friend, as a new believer in Jesus, I baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
(Sound of water, baptism, and then men walking out of water)
When the two men came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away to another city. The Ethiopian official did not see him again but he was filled with joy because he now belonged to Jesus.
I'm so happy. I finally understand what I have been searching for. I have found the love of Jesus. I must hurry home so that I may spread my joy to everyone else. There are so many people to tell.
When God tells us to do something, he doesn't always tell us why right away. Because Philip obeyed God's command, the good news of Jesus was spread to the country of Ethiopia.
If you want to know more about Philip, read the book of Acts in the New Testament part of your Bible.

KINGSVILLE (March 22, 2019) — Theatre students and faculty from Texas A&M University-Kingsville were successful at the regional level of the Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival (KCACTF) in Abilene.
Corey Ranson, associate professor of theatre, received the highest honor, the KCACTF Gold Medallion Award. It is given by each of the eight regions to honor individuals or organizations that have made extraordinary contributions to the teaching and producing of theatre and who have significantly dedicated their time, artistry and enthusiasm to the development of the KCACTF.
The recipients of the award have demonstrated a strong commitment to the value and goals of KCACTF and to excellence in educational theatre. The Gold Medallion is the most prestigious regional award given by KCACTF and is considered one of the great honors in theatre education.
Ranson said, "It means we got some recognition for what we do. They know we are a small program and I appreciate them a lot. It also bodes well on myself and the university for what we have done here. When we do a show, we know we must work harder than other schools, but we still put up great work."
Individually, Ryan Duncan won the Aspire Arts Management Award which provides him with an all-expense paid trip to the national festival in Washington D.C. for a week to participate in an arts management fellowship.
Lexi LaCour received the Music Theatre Initiative Finalists Award.
The theatre production of June Bugs received an award for supporting new works and a plaque honoring the production.
"Everything put Texas A&M-Kingsville in a great light! Over 900 students and faculty and graduate schools from the six-state region, saw our work and it showcased the students well," Ranson said. "Two students got call backs for MFA programs and I got interest from potential incoming theatre students."
About KCACTF
Started in 1969 by Roger L. Stevens, the Kenney Center's founding chairman, the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival is a national theater program involving 20,000 students from colleges and universities nationwide annually. For 50 years, the organization has served as a catalyst in improving the quality of college theater in the United States.
The goals of the KCACTF are to encourage, recognize and celebrate the finest and most diverse work produced in university and college theater programs; to provide opportunities for participants to develop their theater skills and insight and achieve professionalism; to improve the quality of college and university theater in America; and to encourage colleges and universities to give distinguished productions of new plays, especially those written by students, the classics, revitalized or newly conceived and experimental works.
Through state, regional and national festivals, KCACTF student and faculty participants celebrate the creative process and share experiences and insights within the community of theater artists. This KCACTF honors excellence of overall production and offers student artists individual recognition through awards and scholarships in playwriting, acting, dramatic criticism, directing and design.
