Frans Nielsen ties game, then scores in shootout as New York beats Ottawa 5-4NHL.com @NHLdotcom
OTTAWA - It's one thing to impress your coach. It's another to do it with as much zeal as the New York Islanders.
The Islanders fired 57 shots en route to a 5-4 shootout win against the Ottawa Senators on Friday. New York captain John Tavares said he hoped coach Jack Capuano liked what he saw.
"I'm sure it's going to make our coach feel good. He's always talking about getting a lot of pucks to the net and shots," Tavares said.
"I think what's important is that we got the 'W' and we got the 5-4 win. If it's the other way around and lose in the shootout and we had that many shots it can be a little frustrating, but this is something to build on and carry over to the next game."
Frans Nielsen scored the tying goal in the third period and then the only goal of the shootout in the Islanders win. Nielsen moved in on Senators goaltender Robin Lehner and put a backhand in on his team's second shot of the shootout, and last they would need.
The Islanders (5-5-3) won for just the third time in their past 10 games while also getting goals from Matt Martin, Tavares and Pierre-Marc Bouchard in regulation with 27 saves from Evgeni Nabokov.
"It thought we played well and I thought structurally we were good and you want to get rewarded when you play well and the guys work ethic is where it needs to be," said Capuano.
"We were resilient. When we play the way we know how to play we have success. Now we have to respond against a good (Boston) Bruins team tomorrow night."
Erik Condra, Bobby Ryan, Mika Zibanejad and Clarke MacArthur scored for the Senators (4-6-3), but it was Lehner making the biggest contribution with 53 saves, including one off Thomas Vanek on a breakaway in overtime.
Ryan said it was as though the Senators were trying to find ways to lose.
"Yeah, we are. We find a way to go up two (goals) early and then we find a way to go up (two) in the second," said Ryan. "I don't know if it's complacency. I don't know what sets in for us. That's when we don't stick to the structure.
"When you don't stick to the structure you've got a goalie that's asked to make (53) saves and that's unreasonable."
MacArthur's goal was his first as a Senator since signing with the club as a free agent back in July. Ryan, who was acquired in a trade with the Anaheim Ducks the same day MacArthur signed, collected the 300th and 301st points of his career.
Senators head coach Paul MacLean tried to find the positives following his team's fourth straight loss, and fifth in six games.
"When things aren't going your way and going real bad sometimes you feel like you're getting pummelled and pummelled and pummelled. I thought tonight we had some guys dig in," MacLean said following the game that saw his two blow not one, but two two-goal leads to the Islanders.
"At the end of the day we found a way to get something out of the game, and the guys started digging in. Any time you're in a tug of war you can't start pulling back until you dig in and stop the other side from pulling. That's a good sign heading into tomorrow that enough is enough."
Ottawa went into the intermission clinging to a 4-3 lead after a frantic finish to the second period that had two Senators in the penalty box for the final 55 seconds.
When the third period resumed, the Islanders still had 57 seconds of a 5-on-3 advantage to work with on fresh ice. But they were unable to score, producing just two shots and double-digit passes.
They did manage to tie the game at 3:14 of the third on Nielsen's goal.
There were a total of five goals in the second period as the Islanders scored twice in 28 seconds to tie the game before the Senators rallied to grab a 4-2 lead.
Tavares had an empty net to deposit the puck in after a blind pass from Vanek found him alone in front. At 9:35 of the period Martin tied the game as he tipped a point shot from former Senator Matt Carkner past Lehner.
The Senators responded with goals from Ryan and MacArthur at 12:34 and 14:47, respectively.
With the teams playing 4-on-4 following a pair of minors, Bouchard put a rebound past Lehner from a sharp angle to pull New York back to within a goal.
Zack Smith was the Ottawa player in the box at the time. Thirty seconds after the Bouchard goal Smith emerged from the penalty box but barely made it 10 feet before being penalized for interference just three seconds after his first infraction ended.
Seven seconds after that Jared Cowen was called for holding, setting up the Islanders' 5-on-3 that carried into the third period.
Ottawa took a 2-0 lead in the first on goals by Condra, with his first of the season, and Zibanejad. Condra left the game in the second period with a muscle strain in his leg and didn't return.
Notes: Derek Grant's first-period assist Friday was his first NHL point in 11 career games, all with the Senators ... Vanek played in the 600th game of his NHL career Friday night, and second with the New York Islanders, recording his first point with his new team. In 598 career games with the Buffalo Sabres he had 497 points ... Tavares extended his point streak to 11-games Friday with a second-period goal. It's the longest such streak in the NHL this season ... Matt Kassian and Joe Corvo were scratches for the Senators while Colin McDonald, Eric Boulton and Brian Straight didn't dress for the Islanders.

Super Bowl week is a convention of Americana. It has transcended the narrow genre of football to become a gathering place for corporate, media, entertainment and political figures who will descend on Indianapolis this week.
The general rule is that if you have suspicions that a celebrity is in front of you then it is definitely that person. Major corporations rent out hotels for their executives and other employees. Massive amounts of commerce takes place. And then there are the parties. And oh, incidentally, an actual game of football will transpire, not that the majority of the couple hundred thousand fans that flock to the city will notice.
For 25 years I threw the largest daytime party at the Super Bowl. I would pick a venue that is evocative of the city and region itself.
In Los Angeles, there was the New York street from "Hello Dolly" on a back lot of 20th Century Fox — yes, Rupert Murdoch attended.
In Dallas last year, 5,000 gathered at Eddie Deen's Ranch with armadillo races and a bucking bull.
In San Diego, on three occasions, the famous zoo was the locale and Johnny Carson's animal expert walked a variety of animals through the party.
In New Orleans, we rented the amusement park Jazzland.
This year was set at the Indianapolis Speedway, but it will not occur due to the negative publicity that Orange County's most powerful business engineered.
The decorations, music, food all thematically have fit with the city. The expenses are covered by sponsors. The set of daytime parties in interactive locales contrasted nicely with the boozy, noisy overcrowded motifs that ranged from Playboy to Hawaiian Tropics to ESPN. Families were encouraged to bring their kids. We had caricaturists, magicians, dancers, animals and much to experience.
We invited whoever was popular in American culture. "Joe Millionaire" came once, as did Ruben Studdard, the American Idol winner.
'N Sync came when they were the country's hottest boy band and Outkast performed at their peak.
Jay Leno came and did silly sports interviews for his show. Oliver Stone brought the cast of "Any Given Sunday."
Rob Schneider came dressed as Richard Simmons for a Leno spoof. He was the bad Richard Simmons and ate ding dongs, smoked and ended up drunk laying in front of the bar. Simmons was guest that night on Leno and they showed him the tape.
Sixteen U.S. Senators came to one party and former Vice President Al Gore to another. There were congressmen, mayors and governors galore.
Cameron Crowe came to research "Jerry Maguire."
"Arliss," as well as "Sports Action Team" and other television shows filmed at the parties.
Live talk radio shows lined the site.
The parties were oriented for charity and acknowledgment of real-world problems. New York police, fire and emergency response personnel were invited after 9-11.
We shipped a water purification system to earthquake-impacted Haiti from the party in Miami. The gift saved 140,000 lives from the threat of cholera.
During the first Gulf War we had a live hook-up between the party and troops in the field. In Tampa, Gabby Giffords arranged for another live screen interaction between celebs and troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Guests could pick up phones and talk to wounded troops in 250 military hospitals.
There was also a car was auctioned for $85,000 to help fund Jenny McCarthy's autism research project.
In the last several years as rolling back climate change became a theme, guests were greeted by a green carpet and energy system labeling. Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano and I released an endangered hawk into the wild at the Scottsdale Botanical Gardens. We aided local food banks and the homeless.
So Super Bowl week has become the networking and partying center of the Western World. I would visit an encampment which is called "radio row," 150 talk-radio shows spread over a convention center. I would start doing shows at 9 in the morning and by 7 at night had surfed my way from Miami to Toronto to Seattle to Phoenix via talk radio.
The marketing and memorabilia alone are worth the trip. So even though we don't currently have a local NFL team, make sure to make the trek at least once in your lifetime.
Next week's game could be a great one. I look forward to analyzing the matchup.
Here's a hint. How does one of the league's worst pass defenses contend with Eli Manning and friends? And, how does the incomparable Tom Brady get time to throw with arguably the best defensive line in his face?

Over the last several days, fears have grown that the world's central banks were going on strike.
China was letting overnight liquidity dry up.
Bernanke was signaling that the march towards the exit would begin.
The Bank for International Settlements (the central bankers central bank) said in its annual report that the age of excessively easy monetary policy had to come to an end, and that it was time for fiscal authorities and governments to do their part to fix the economy.
But today we're getting reminders that central banks are still here.
The People's Bank of China came out with a statement indicating that would ease liquidity concerns.
And this morning, ECB executive board member Benoît Cœuré gave a speech in which he said this line:
Let me state quite clearly that I do not intend to drop any hints about a change in the monetary policy stance in the euro area in the near future. A reversal would not be warranted by current economic conditions. Economic growth is projected to remain weak this year and inflation is expected to remain clearly below 2% for the euro area as a whole. The various non-standard measures that have been introduced by the ECB to support monetary policy transmission in certain market segments will stay in place as long as necessary, and there are other measures, standard and non-standard, that we can deploy if warranted. Therefore, at the current juncture, there should be no doubts that our "exit" is distant and our monetary policy is and will remain accommodative.
That's not that specific, but the idea of there being more the ECB can do to ease policy if warranted (which they almost certainly are) is an important message.
Meanwhile, there are more Fed speeches coming up this week, and potentially there will be an opportunity to help soften some of Bernanke's words from last Wednesday.
So perhaps the strike is over for now.
Markets are liking it. China made a comeback from its lows of the day, and Europe is at its highs of the morning.

The Blue Devils outscored the Mountaineers 15-4 over the first 10:32 of the second half, but it was not enough for the victory as Central Connecticut State University (9-16, 6-9) fell to Mount St. Mary's (9-16, 5-10) by a score of 55-45 on the road Saturday. Junior Justina Udenze led CCSU with 12 points, while adding nine rebounds and a season-best six blocks. The junior moved into second place in Central Connecticut annals for career blocks with 84 her in three seasons. She passed former Blue Devils Donna Fiedorowicz who totaled 79 during her career in New Britain.
CCSU trailed 32-19 at the half and The Mount opened the second frame with two points from sophomore Sandra Andresson. The Blue Devils then went on a 15-2 run to come within one point at 35-34 with 9:28 to play in the game. Central sophomore Rachel Chandler's three pointer from the right corner really brought the Blue Devils within reach, making it 35-30.
Udenze then took things into her own hands. The Hamden, CT native fed junior Kerrianne Dugan for a layup on the break to bring Central within three points. She followed that up by blocking a Mountaineer's shot out of bounds. Once The Mount got the ball in bounds, Udenze blocked yet another shot and kept this one in play. The junior sprinted to the offensive end and Chandler found her for the fast break layup to make it 35-34.
The Mount St. Mary's lead hovered around three points until a six to zero run extended it to double digits at 50-40 and The Mount went on to the 55-45 victory. The Blue Devils were held to 28 percent field goal percentage for the game and were forced into 19 turnovers. The Mountaineers only committed 10 turnovers and picked up 12 steals in the win.
The Blue Devils only trailed 11-9 midway through the first half before The Mount used a 15-2 run to take a 26-11 lead with only 3:13 to play in the period. CCSU wasn't able to get anything going on the offensive end during the strecth due to numerous turnovers, which led to easy fast break baskets for Mount St. Mary's on the other end. Mountaineer juniors Leah Westbrooks and Lauren Howell were integral during the run, accounting for two buckets a piece with one of Howell's coming from beyond the arc.
Central got its deficit back to under double digits with two straight three-pointers by seniors P.J. Wade and Emily Rose. Wade knocked down a three from the left baseline to make it 26-14 with 2:40 left in the half before Rose connected on a triple in transition from the right wing to cut the deficit to nine at 26-17 with 2:12 to play. The Mount went on to hold a 31-19 lead at the break. CCSU recorded 10 turnovers in the opening frame, which led to 10 points off of turnovers for Mount St. Mary's.
Junior Mary Dunn led The Mount with 11 points, while Westbrooks finished with nine points and seven rebounds. Freshman Sydney Henderson added eight points, and team highs of nine rebounds and four assists.
Udenze led the Blue Devils in scoring and blocked shots, while Dugan was tops in rebounds and assists recording 11 and five in the categories, respectively. Dugan's 11 point and 11 rebound performance marks her fourth double-double of the season. Crockett was the only other Blue Devil in double figures, scoring 10 points and adding eight rebounds in the defeat.
Central Connecticut, now 6-9 in Northeast Conference action, will stay on the road and play at Wagner on Saturday. Tip off is set for 3:00 p.m.

Doing your taxes can definitely make you feel like you want to kill somebody, but one taxpayer in Rhode Island actually threatened to go through with murder over a major tax bill.
Andrew A. Calcione owed taxes from 2008, 2009 and 2010, totaling in a $330,000 in debt to the IRS. The Warwick IRS office had been calling him to deal with the back taxes directly, and Calcione was not amused by the frequent calls.
Last July 15, Calcione called the office. He left voicemails detailing what would happen to the agent if he ever called him again in regards to tax issues, specifying he would torture the agent, rape and kill the agent's wife, injure the agent's daughter and then finally kill the agent.
The IRS agent reported the calls to the authorities, who determined the voicemails were brutal enough to charge Calcione. A federal judge found him guilty of threatening to assault and murder (on the accounts of the agent and his two family members.) A judge will determine his punishment this September. The maximum sentence is 20 years behind bars. The U.S. Attorney's office threatened to seek the "toughest appropriate sentence in this case."

Deep Pile Moroccan Rugs in March's Elle Decor
The March issue of Elle Decor screams What's Hot Now in neon ink across the cover — and though the editors never officially put deep pile Moroccan Rugs on "the list", 4 of the 6 featured homes have deep pile Moroccan rugs with a very similar graphic pattern. And a fifth home features a similar Turkish Wool Prayer rug! Are neutral Moroccan rugs the new suzani of shelter magazines?
They coordinate with nearly everything — the examples below are in both modern and traditional settings:
• 1 Yancey Richardson's Chelsea apartment has more than one of these rugs — this story is not online. (pages 140, 143)
• 2 Hollywood director Brett Ratner's master bedroom has a Moroccan rug credited to Mansour Modern. (pages 96-97 )
• 3 Artist Anne Becker has one in the bedroom...
• 4 ...and a pink version in the hall! (pages cover, 131,133)
• 5 Fleetwood Mac's Lindsey Buckingham's wife has one in her studio. (page 118)
We recently got a sneak peek at the summer line from West Elm and they've got a similarly patterned rug — Alhambra Rug available in 5 sizes ($109 - $749).

GATE IN 2019 Ques - (With Answer Keys) Answers
"GATE IN 2019 Ques - (With Answer Keys) Answers"
I thank Dhande sir for giving my preparation for Gate a kickstart. I am primarily focused on my research work and was not interested in the exam. But about 4 months before the exam, I came across Gate Academy's Youtube channel and this way I started my preparation. Umesh Sir's videos on Control Theory (especially the one on GM and PM) and Analog Circuits (especially Topology Concepts and Gain Calculation shortcuts) were insightful and conceptually sound. Also, a lot of tricky questions were asked in the test series offered by Gate Academy and it gave me the necessary confidence for the exam. So, I owe a lot to the Gate Academy's Youtube channel and Gate Academy's test series for my performance.
I thank everyone who supported me during my preparation especially my family, friends and offcourse Dhande Sir without his motivation I am not able to secure such a decent rank in Gate Civil 2018. His Youtube motivational video helped me so much during my preparation Test series of GATE ACADEMY also helped me a lot in analyzing my preparation.
I owe a major part of my success to GATE ACADEMY team. You can find n-number of test series out in the market, but GATE ACADEMY test series is the closest it can get to the main GATE exam. I myself have given test series from other institutes but the questions are either a notch above the required level or completely out of the box. When things started to go awry in the end, yet again the panel discussion and Dhande Sir's speeches guided me to the shore. If you can hold your ground during tough times and find a mentor like Dhande Sir any situation will be a cake walk. Once again I would like to thank everyone at GATE ACADEMY from the bottom of my heart.
I always wanted to be in that top 100 list of Gate toppers. In order to achieve this I have really taken lot of efforts. GATE ACADEMY is also responsible for my success in many ways. I use to watch videos of Umesh Sir on Youtube these videos really helped me to clear most of my concepts. I always wanted to join Gate Academy but couldn't since I was working in a private company but these videos on Youtube really helped me. I also liked the inspirational videos provided by Umesh Sir which always kept me motivated and last but not the least GATE ACADEMY'S Full length test series really helped me especially the CBT test. So I would like to thank the entire GATE ACADEMY faculty for the kind of work that they are doing.
I am really grateful to Umesh Dhande Sir, Sakshi Mam, Sujay Sir, Pankaj Sir & the whole GATE ACADEMY team. I can't even imagined myself with this rank without there proper guidance. I am really gonna miss sir & mam's speech. GATE ACADEMY study materials are really helpful while preparation as it contain large number questions including previous years questions. Which saves my valuable time. I also want to congratulate Umesh sir & team for obtaining a milestone of 100k subscribers on Youtube. Youtube videos are really helpful for me, it develops some new tricks to solve the questions. Now at last I wish upcoming students all the luck, give your 100% , give lots of test & never give up.
I want to thank all the faculty of GATE ACADEMY to make my journey easy. Their test series really facilitate my hard work to come out as flying colours through this tough exam. We all have potentials but someone has to play the role of potter to harness that, to mould that into a proper shape and GATE ACADEMY played the exact role for me."
I want to thank whole GATE ACADEMY team specially Umesh sir, Sujay sir, Shishir sir, Gurupal sir, Saket sir without their support I couldn't have even thought of getting such rank in Gate. Umesh sir is my hero for providing these videos through Youtube channel no matter how much i prepared any subject there was always something new which I learned when I saw Gate video by GATE ACADEMY team. Motivational videos by Umesh sir kept me going when I lost my confidence and thought of giving up, he's a great motivator and best teacher that I have ever known.
I would like to Thank Umesh Sir and all the dedicated faculty members of Gate Academy for motivating me to work hard for achieving AIR 14, I would not have reached here if I haven't get encouragement from inspiring Video lecture of Gate Academy Youtube channel.
For building Gate Aspirants I would like to tell them that no matter what ever be the situation never get discouraged and never give up. Go for excellence.
The credit of my success goes to my parents, Umesh Sir, Sakshi mam, and all the faculty members of GATE ACADEMY. Everyone dreams for success and for that one needs a platform...for me it was Gate Academy. It helped me in every aspect whether it is related to studies or boosting my confidence. One plus point for me was that I remained connected with the Gate Academy as a content editor even after my classes...Errors were with me all throughout but rectifying them was my main motive and I did that..As it is rightly said..We are all born with a divine fire in us. Our efforts should be to give wings to this fire and fill the world with the glow of its goodness..
I thank the whole Gate Academy team especially Dhande Sir for his relentless efforts in helping us in every possible way via the Youtube channel & the FB Group despite their busy schedule. The OTS of GA helped me find my weak areas. I used to bookmark the questions which I find difficulty in and practice them so that I do not repeat the same mistakes in the Gate exam. I got 9221 rank in Gate 2016, 1335 in Gate 2017, and now it is AIR 64, Gate 2018. Finally what I want to say to the future aspirants is DO NOT GIVE UP until you achieve what you want.

Steel Diver on the 3DS is a new submarine combat game that immerses players in 3D environments. The player can choose from three different submarines, each with touch-screen control panels that players will have to master to guide them through treacherous undersea caverns while engaging enemy submarines, dodging depth charges and battling massive sea creatures.

When the 3DS released in spring 2011, Nintendo didn't really have a new title from one of its flagship titles to go with it. With everyone waiting around for a new Mario or Zelda adventure, the company had to come up with games that would show off the 3DS hardware and at least get people's imaginations going for what the system could be capable of.
Enter Steel Diver for the 3DS. This is the kind of game that happens when you take several tech demos and throw them together loosely into the same game. It's not that Steel Diver is a bad game, it's not. It's just it really does feel like Nintendo was hurting for games that could show off the 3DS and this is one of the ideas they came up with to feel the void. The story really doesn't add much to the game at all.
So let's talk about the gameplay. Steel Diver is a little but a puzzler, a little bit a turn based strategy game and a little bit of a a first person mini game. Like I said, multiple different tech demo concepts tied together.
The central part of the game is Mission Mode, which puts you in charge of one of three different submarines. There are seven missions to complete and each has its own objective. You make your sub go by using the stylus to move two levers, one for speed and one for depth. You can also tilt the ship using a wheel apparatus in two of the subs. You will move the sub through puzzles on the screen all while blasting away at enemies.
The game does offer some satisfying action and the few boss fights can be fun. The first person periscope mini game is a fun diversion for a few minutes at a time and there is a multiplayer strategy game packed in as well if you want to play with your friends.
Again, the game is not terrible. We just can't get over the fact of how disconnected it all feels. You're essentially buying three games that are just OK instead of one great game. To make matters worse, if this game was made to show off the 3DS system capabilities, then I'm not sure what Nintendo was thinking. The 3D has some cool moments like when enemy ships or torpedoes come at your face, but in all honesty you don't need the 3D turned on to play the game. It offers no real tactical advantage to the gameplay. You might say, "Oh wow, look at that" for a few minutes, and then you'll turn the effect off to save battery life and your gameplay won't be affected.
For a launch title, Steel Diver is sufficient. But with all of the other games that have released since then that actually use the 3DS capabilities for something more than just a demo, there's really no reason to go out hunting for a copy. Just leave it at the ocean's bottom.

News Release
California Firm Recalls Chicken Provance French Puff Pastry Due To Misbranding and Undeclared Allergen
Congressional and Public Affairs
Stacy Kish (202) 720-9113
WASHINGTON, September 13, 2013 – Galant Food Company, a San Leandro, Calif. establishment, is recalling approximately 420 pounds of Chicken Provance French puff pastry product because of misbranding and an undeclared allergen. The products are formulated with an egg wash glaze that contains egg, a known allergen, which is not declared on the label.
The product subject to recall includes:
- 4-oz. of "Chicken Provance French Puff " bearing the establishment number "EST. 9014" inside the USDA mark of inspection on the label. Identifying case codes are: 7193, 9053 and 9093.
The products were produced on July 19, September 5 and September 9, 2013 and shipped to restaurants and cafes in the San Francisco Bay area.
The problem was discovered during a food safety assessment at the establishment. FSIS personnel are responsible for verifying that establishments are actively labeling the eight most common food allergens. The firm recently relocated, and the problem occurred due to difficulties with label printing equipment at their new location.

Revised from Health.com recipe for Cocoa Cayenne Popcorn
This is a very quick, fun snack that can be made for seasonal gifts - or just for fun. I used pre-packaged popped corn, which was a real time saver. Not that I needed to save time. And it wasn't because I didn't have an air-popper; I just bought a new air popper since my old one got flooded in our storage unit this summer. But our grocery store didn't have any popcorn kernels on the shelf for several weeks. and I managed to grab the very last package of pre-popped popcorn that they had on the shelf the day I was there. I have been waiting several days to actually get around to making the recipe. A chilly, snowy day seemed just the right time.
Now... the bag of popcorn that I bought for this recipe said it contained five 4-cup servings. The original recipe called for 10 cups of air-popped corn, so I figured I should double the ingredients for 20 cups. My finished product showed a much thicker coating of the cocoa mix on the popcorn than the photo in the original recipe. But, if you don't like to lick your fingers or keep washing cocoa off your hands when you eat it, feel free to cut the quantities for the cocoa mixture in half. You'll get a lighter coating, I'm sure.
The original recipe said a serving size should be 2-1/2 cups... their recipe would yield four servings.
My recipe? Ummm... I think we're only going to get two servings out of it, and that's not because we planned to package any up to give away! :-)
- 6 T. confectioners' sugar
- 2 T. unsweetened Hershey's Special Dark cocoa powder
- 1 - 2 tsp. or several shakes of Penzey's Arizona Dreaming seasoning*
- One 5-oz bag Boom Chicka Pop Sea Salt Popcorn (or 20 cups air-popped popcorn)
- Olive oil cooking spray
- Four 1-oz. squares Baker's Premium White Chocolate
- 2 tsp. organic extra virgin coconut oil
1. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Using a bowl large enough to hold about 1 quart, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, and seasoning.
3. Place the popcorn in a large, shallow bowl; I used a stainless steel mixing bowl. Spray the popcorn with olive oil. The original instructions said to spray about 10 seconds, but I sprayed a little, stirred, sprayed again while stirring until I felt I had coated the popcorn enough to hold the cocoa mixture in place.
4. Sprinkle the cocoa and spice mixture evenly on top; toss until well-coated. I used an old Pampered Chef powdered sugar container with a handle to "dust" the mixture over the popcorn as I stirred and tossed it to make sure it was evening coated.
5. Spread a single layer of the cocoa coated popcorn evenly onto each of the two baking sheets.
6. Using a Pyrex bowl, or one that can safely be used in the microwave, heat the chocolate in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time until it has begun to melt evenly. Mine took about 1-1/2 to 2 minutes to heat until melted. Then remove the bowl from the microwave, stirring the chocolate until there are no more lumps. Stir the coconut oil into the melted chocolate and, using a teaspoon, drizzle it over the popcorn.
|Cocoa popcorn with white chocolate drizzle. Feel free to use dark chocolate, if you prefer!
7. Allow the popcorn to cool thoroughly so that the chocolate drizzle is no longer runny. Then package it up quickly before you eat it!
NOTE: If you don't have Penzey's Arizona Dreaming, just use the spices from the original recipe. Go ahead and add that 1/2 tsp. of cayenne for extra burn!

Emerging from a dark period, Boychuk's Winterhawks are set to offer a serious challenge to their counterparts. Rested Kootenay, led by stalwart rearguard and fellow Sabres prospect Brayden McNabb, will enter the series on a dominating 11-game winning streak after earning sweeps in their previous two rounds. Boychuk himself has pulled through a dark time, battling back after surgery on both hips to re-invent himself as a legit role player at the next level.
Like the team he plays for, Boychuk's game has undergone a transformation. After piling up gaudy stats in his final bantam season (60 goals and 74 assists for 134 points in 63 games), he's become a grinding power forward in the WHL. The 20-year-old is seventh in Winterhawks playoff scoring (10 points in 16 games), while putting his 6'5", 220-pound frame to good use on the forecheck.
"My role is to use my big body to wear and tear on their D-men," said Boychuk, who was a seventh-round draft pick by the Buffalo Sabres last summer. "A hard, energy-type game is what I'll be playing at the next level. So I might as well practice it here."

Never Ask Permission: Elisabeth Scott Bocock of Richmond
The book is a memoir about the charming and eccentric Bocock, an esteemed resident of Richmond, Virginia well-known for her preservationist and conservationist efforts. Bocock revitalized Richmond by "never asking permission" when it came to preserving Richmond's historic and natural treasures. The book was written by Bocock's daughter, Mary Buford Hitz. Bocock was a member of one of Richmond's most prominent families, the Scotts, but she was an atypi...

At 20th Century Fox Studios in the 1960s, Lillian Gallo earned the nickname Mrs. Average America. She turned out to be anything but.
Then a producer's assistant, she was asked to screen the dailies of nearly every television show in the Fox pipeline. She was unafraid to express genuine emotion, Gallo later recalled, so if she laughed or cried during a scene, producers believed the heartland would follow.
By the early 1970s she was producing TV movies and breaking ground for women in the industry. When Gallo joined forces with screenwriter Fay Kanin, they became one of the first female producing teams in Hollywood and established their own production company in 1978.
Because Gallo "started to produce so early, and she did it so well … she set a tone and a path for women. She helped open arenas to women," said author Mollie Gregory, who has documented the modern emergence of women as producers in TV and film.
Gallo, a longtime resident of Beverly Hills, died June 6 of Alzheimer's disease at the Motion Picture and Television Fund's retirement home in Woodland Hills, said her daughter, Mary Ann Gallo. She was 84.
The 1975 television movie "Hustling" was perhaps Gallo's best-known project. Based on Gaily Sheehy's book-length expose on prostitution in America, it starred Jill Clayburgh in an Emmy-nominated role as a streetwalker. Although "Hustling" was "raw and of the streets," Gallo later said, it told the "plight of prostitutes in a very intimate way."
She liked to tell "personal stories about the human condition," she said in a 1979 New York Times article headlined "TV Producing — No Longer a Man's World."
When Gallo's two children, who were adopted, began asking questions about where they came from, she was inspired to make the 1974 TV film "Stranger Who Looks Like Me," featuring Meredith Baxter as an adult adoptee searching for her biological parents.
In the late 1970s, Brandon Stoddard, then an executive at ABC, signed Gallo and Kanin to an exclusive contract, effectively paying them not to offer their services to NBC or CBS.
Their work had a "humanistic quality," Stoddard told the New York Times in 1979. "Unlike men, they're not afraid to express emotion. They treat emotion with great dignity, as a source of strength rather than weakness."
After "Hustling," Gallo and Kanin formed their production company but produced only one film together, "Fun and Games," which starred Valerie Harper in a tale about workplace harassment. In Gregory's 2002 book "Women Who Run the Show," Kanin said the partners were "very choosy" about projects, but Gregory offered another theory.
"Though they enjoyed working together, they were really bucking the times," Gregory said in an interview last week. "Lillian told me that people found it shocking to be on the set with two women producers."
The daughter of Polish immigrants, Lillian Drazek was born April 12, 1928, in Springfield, Mass., and earned a degree in journalism in 1949 from the University of Michigan.
She spent the next four years in the Marines, becoming a captain and serving at the Pentagon. Gallo regularly credited her military years for the discipline and resourcefulness needed to succeed in show business.
Through a game of charades, Gallo met writer-director George Axelrod and soon became his assistant. In 1955, while working on Broadway, she met her future husband, actor Lew Gallo, when he appeared in "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?" They had been married for 42 years when he died at 71 in 2000.
In the late 1950s, she came to Hollywood to work on "The Frank Sinatra Show" and met producer William Self, who mentored her at 20th Century Fox, where she worked over the next decade on such shows as "Peyton Place" and "Batman."
When Barry Diller, then an ABC executive, named Gallo director of Movies of the Weekend, she considered it her big break. In that role, she supervised 22 movies, including Steven Spielberg's "Duel" (1971), and moved into producing in the early 1970s with "Haunts of the Very Rich," a TV movie.
"She was a strange, interesting combination. She was tenacious and generous," Gregory said. "She felt so strongly that if you did your job well, there were no limits, no barriers to what women could do. At the same time, she was generous in helping younger women get ahold of their abilities and careers."
In a statement, Marcy Carsey, who established herself as an influential TV producer in the 1980s with "The Cosby Show," said Gallo had "uncommon intelligence, focus, dignity and work ethic. But under all that was a huge, selfless heart."
Even after Gallo produced her final TV movie, the 1998 thriller "I Know What You Did," she refused to say she was retired and continued to try to develop projects until about two years ago.
In addition to her daughter, Mary Ann, Gallo is survived by a son, Tom, and two grandchildren.
Services will be held at 10 a.m. Tuesday at the Church of the Good Shepherd, 504 N. Roxbury Drive, Beverly Hills.

Mary J. Blige Shows Off Healthy Body on Shape Cover
Mary J. Blige has been working on her exercise regime for several months and now she's showing off the results. The Queen of Hip-Hop Soul is now the queen of abs on SHAPE magazine's December issue.
On the cover, MJB is wearing an all-white two-piece bathing suit, which reveals her svelte figure. The cover line says it all: "42 and Sexier Than Ever -- the Moves That Make Her Fit & Fierce."
Getting that fierce body wasn't easy for Blige. The 'My Life' singer enlisted the help of her trainer, Mark Jenkins, and stayed on a strict diet and exercise routine.
"My main exercise is cardio," she tells SHAPE. "The treadmill is fine but running outdoors gives me the best results. I try to log 6 to 8 miles a week. I could be in the worst mood, but when I do my cardio I feel much, much better."
In preparation for the cover shoot, Blige also eliminated sugar from her diet and ate foods that were gluten-free, dairy-free and low-carb.
Blige also cut out alcohol, which she did following the untimely death of her idol, pop icon Whitney Houston.
"I haven't had a drink in a year and three months," she attests. "I had quit for a long time but started again about five years ago. I'm off it completely once more, and now I feel stronger than ever."
The December issue of SHAPE, featuring the shapely Mary J. Blige on the cover, will hit newsstands on Nov. 25.

Based on the cars for sale on CarSite.co.uk we can provide the average price for used Ferrari 308 cars for sale based on year of registration.
This will give you an idea of the prices you should expect for a used Ferrari 308. Of course, you will need to take into account a number of factors that can dramatically affect the price, including: Mileage, Condition, Service History, Colour, Options, Location, Exact Specification, etc.
So although the Ferrari 308 buyer's guide shows the average price and average mileage, it should be taken as a starting point, rather than an exact indicator of the price you should expect to pay for a specifc used Ferrari 308. It's a useful guide to used Ferrari 308 values.


text: I have many identically-configured servers. All run Ubuntu 10.04. On one particular server, I noticed that none of the daily CRON jobs appear to be running. (I assume that the weekly and monthly jobs are not running, either.) These jobs did run at some point in the past, but they stopped running one day. The "cron" process is definitely running: Code: # ps -ef|grep cron root 1360 1 0 Nov12 ? 00:00:48 cron root 3232 26106 0 08:04 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto cron And other CRON jobs that I have created myself do indeed run on schedule. The daily CRON job, which is scheduled to run at 06:25, looks like this: Code: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate /etc/cron.daily/sysklogd /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter /etc/cron.daily/ntp /etc/cron.daily/amavisd-new /etc/cron.daily/apache2 /etc/cron.daily/apt-show-versions /etc/cron.daily/spamassassin /etc/cron.daily/webalizer /etc/cron.daily/apt.dpkg-dist /etc/cron.daily/roundcube-core /etc/cron.daily/00logwatch I can see that the job is called at the correct time, as the following log entry is created: Code: Dec 21 06:25:01 example CRON[22303]: (root) CMD (test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )) However, executing this command seems to do nothing: Code: # test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) On another server where this works as it should, executing this command takes several minutes to complete. On the "broken" server, this command completes immediately. However, if I execute just the latter bit of the command, the server churns-away for several minutes and the daily CRON jobs seem to complete successfully: Code: # cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily Does this tell us anything useful? What should I check to determine what's happening here? Thanks for any help! UPDATE: I can't make sense of the fact that Code: # test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) causes absolutely nothing to happen on the system, while Code: # cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily seems to work as expected. I half expected the exit status from the "test" command to be non-zero, but, alas, it is zero: Code: # test -x /usr/sbin/anacron # echo $? 0 This yields zero exit status, too: Code: # test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) # echo $? 0 Update 2 Ahhh. I overlooked the fact that "A || B" is shell syntax for execute B only if A failed (and not only if A succeeded). So, the fact that "test -x /usr/sbin/anacron" returns exit code zero (0) means that the second command, "( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )", will never be executed! This lead me to check the exit status of "test -x /usr/sbin/anacron" on one of the systems on which this problem does not exist, and sure enough, the exit status is one (1). It finally occurred to me that anacron must be installed on the server on which daily/weekly/monthly CRON jobs fail to be executed, and not installed on the servers that function as expected. Surely enough, that was indeed the case. So, I uninstalled anacron, and all is well. Not sure how that bugger was installed in the first place.

No Mouth Ulcers for 4 months27 messages in this subject.
|Prednisolone works wonders for me. 3 days to get rid of loads.
|Glenn 16 January 19
|i had an ulcer at the side of my tongue for 3 days, read this forum, took yogurt in the morning and at night, the next day it was significantly better. I just know its the good bacteria . Now gonna take probiotics every day.
If you Google oral thrush it also says yogurt, probiotics. Seems that its somewhat related......
|Ken 28 September 18
|I've had mouth ulcers since as far back as i can remember. I have found one thing i cannot stop is any trauma to my mouth eg. I had a tooth removed and my entire mouth broke out in huge ulcers, very very painful. Any biting of cheek or tongue, also when i get my teeth cleaned i can guarantee they will pop back up the next day, and oh yeah watch out for toothpaste containing sodium lauryl sulfate (sls) i use pronamel that does not contain that and it does help. I know when i eat any citrus or acidic foods i am doomed , tomatoes seem to be the worst for me. Last year i started taking probiotics and what a difference this makes. It is not a miracle cure by any means, i still get them here and there mainly because tomatoes are my favorite food and im weak but when i do there not as severe and they are gone alot faster. I seriously recommend trying a probiotic. It changed my life from miserable to almost like a normal person.
|Dave M 3 January 18
|I am 70 years old 4 days ago I felt a sore area above a fairly new bridge my dentist made for me.
I have a thick white coated tongue.& 27 moth ulcers, boy are they painful I have had no solid food for 4 days and would like to know what is a suitable diet.
|Sandra 15 April 13
|I've developed a system that works for me. I was previously getting 2 ulcers a month. Now I get maybe one a year.
(perhaps relevant to just me, perhaps not)
- Avoid gluten and lactose (I have dietary intolerances)
- Avoid lactose-free substitutes where they leave lactose in and just add lactase. If I have a large exposure to lactose I can be SURE that I will get an ulcer.
(relevant in general)
- Avoid all citrus/tomatoes/acidic things
- Chew sharp things (chips, toast etc. ) slowly
- Take 15 mg Zinc supplement everyday (helps with wound healing)
- Take calcium supplements (to compensate for avoiding dairy)
- Excessive alcohol consumption / lack of sleep doesn't help the immune system
Now, whenever I get the beginnings of an ulcer, it vanishes within a day or two - the healing function works! I also find that "Kennalog" (triamcinolone acetonide) can speed up the healing a lot too.
Good luck!
|Raz 24 September 12
|The foaming agent in toothpaste is known to cause ulcers, is it LTT? I use kids toothpaste and hardly get an ulcer now - but interesting about the iron levels and lactose intorelance - I suspect both - must get tested!
|GraceG 8 February 12
|I have been getting mouth ulcers for years (I'm now 36) and I assumed I was just very susceptible to them. I have tried all sorts of things to ease the pain when I have them. However, it finally occured to me that the actual problem isn't likely to be in my mouth, but was more likely to be in my stomach/digestion system. I also had Tonsillitis for the first time about five years ago and have had Tonsillitis repeatedly since then (which coincides with a major outbreak of mouth ulcers each time). I went to see a nutritionist (because I was fed up of continual mouth ulcers) and one suggestion was to take a probiotic. I decided to go for Prebio7 (the reviews on Amazon were good), and have not had any mouth ulcers since taking them (4 months ago). It seems I just didn't have the guts, now I do.
|PaulT 16 September 11
|I had multiple ulcers in my mouth,18:'( but d sooner I stopped taking flozen, Nsaid, dey r healing,can dey be due to drug allergy
|chandni 6 July 11
|I have also had ulcers since about 14 and like you, almost without a break. My eldest son was the same. Sometimes we'd both have 3 or 4 at the same time. After experimentation, I, too, found tomatoes to be the culprit. I cut them out for about a year and it was bliss. I recently went to Italy and was so taken with it that I went full Italian on my return home... and guess what else has returned with a vengeance? However, I've also found it's not JUST tomatoes that does it to me... peppermint or mint sweets do it too.
|Shona 2 June 11
|Also if you are suffering: try Squigle brand toothpaste. It does not burn and leaves your mouth fresh.
|Suffermuch 19 April 11
|I have had ulcers for as long as I can remember. I am 33 years old now. I have seen more doctors than I have fingers and toes. I do not have herpes. I was told I have Bechets. But I don't. I have blisters, blood and fluid filled. Which I have been told is a different disease. I suffer everyday with ulcers, some as big as an eraser on a pencil and bigger if they combine. I eat what I want because everything hurts. I know that tomatoes and salad from Olive Garden make things worse. I prayed to be free of this pain, but I still hurt. I have the best husband ever who tries everything to make me hurt less. I love "Ulcer Ease" it WORKS!!! If some can help, please do. I really hope I am the only one who has this pain everyday. If not and you have a better way...please share.
|Suffermuch 19 April 11
|Check out a product called AftaZen. Its a natural product that they have been using in Europe and is now for sale here in the states. It has some amazing results and they give you a 60 day money back guarantee. This web site has info on it. www.apthosisulcers.com
|Damark 13 January 11
|Good to see I'm not the only one!
I have had them since I was 12 (23 now) I remember having days off school as I couldn't eat which would make me tired, I was perscribed a great little paste which cleared them up and throughout the tube I was fine, however when I went to get my next batch it had been pulled of the shelf.
The Lady behind the till asked if I ate banana's "Yes" I replied, "One a day" - "That'll be it" she informed - I since stopped and what a great help that has been, I pesonally find its potassium - Bananas and Kiwis being particularly bad...not sure of the pottasium content of a Tomato but as I can't stand them they've never been a problem!
|Jake E 11 January 11
|Please. Please . please listen. Go to your G. P. Ask him to do an indepth "Ferratin Level" blood test. Some people cannot store normal amounts of iron in their body. just as some people store too much resulting in Haemochromotosis. It is a Celtic thing. If your Ferratin level is low, every time you even touch the side of your mouth with toast, etc, you will damage the lining of the mouth and get an ulcer. Your G. P could say he has done your haemoglobin and it is fine. Insist on the "ferratin" level. It is totally different. It should be between 60 - 300 of a reading. 60 or less is very very low and requires 6 months of prescription iron tablets. I know this has woked a miracle for one of my family. We cannot believe how well it worked and want to shout it on Sky News. Our G. P. never heard of this as a cause, but a Professor in ear, nose and throat disgnosed it.
|Catherine O'Brien 7 November 10
|hi there i am 24 and have been having very bad mouth ulcers since i was 15. I am unsure of what this is caused from. If i was to be lactose intollerant could this cause it?
|Barbie Doll x 6 November 10
|very interesting considering I was just looking online on information on mouth ulcers-I have all of a sudden out of the blue been plagued with them-I have sixty tomato plants in my yard and have been eating lots of them..I guess I will have to stop and see what happens..thanks!
|Ani Elle 29 July 10
|I used to have mouth ulcers every month or so. Then I stopped eating raw tomatoes in January last year and since then (18 months now). I been pretty much ulcer free. Just had one or two since then when I bit my lip. I also found oranges and sour satsumas were to blame. Its such a relief to have found that such a simple act of not eating raw tomatoes could help so much. I think cooked tomatoes (e.g. in a lasagna) don't seem to be such a problem which is interesting but I guess they change a bit in cooking.
|Pete 28 July 10
|Both Lactose and Fructose malabsorbtion cause mouth ulcers for me, it only took 35 years to work it out, but am absolutely sure that they are responsible. I can tolerate small amounts of Lactose and Fructose its a matter of trial and error to see what you can tolerate.
|John 21 May 10
|Hi, you can try Danzen tablets. It is kind of Serratiopeptidase.
I bought it from a OTC pharmacy in my country (Singapore).
1st day used, not much results, BUT after 3 days, I can noticed some differences, and 4th day, the difference is even more noticeable. Within a week, I have no more ulcer in the top of my mouth!!
|Stress Free 25 June 09
|Hi Cynthia, just stumbling accross this website, I stopped having mouth ulcers once I was diagnosed with lactose intolerance so I do not have milky products anymore. Occasionnaly my son still has them and I suspect that he is intolerant to sweets (he recently ate half a packet and got a massive ulcer few hours later). Our doctor prescribed Adcortyl ointment which is fantastic at healing the ulcer. I wish I knew about this years ago as well as about my lactose intolerance as I had more or less a mouth ulcer or two continuously for 25 years! Good luck.
|Clarite 23 December 08
|Interesting to learn that yoghurt may help month ulcer. I have month ulcer over a year and the condition is getting worse now. It used to have one or two but nowaday may even have five. It is so painful and can't eat solid food.
|cynthia 1 December 08
|I had 2 real big ulcers when i started taking lysine, they went within 1 week, which is about normal for my ulcers anyway but the main thing is i havent had a single 1, not even the threat of 1 since.Dosage-wise, im taking 500mg tablets, at first 2 a day for a week then 1 a day and now im spacing it out to see what the optimal preventative dosage for me is. I think it really depends on your own individual brand of ulcer- as we know there is no common type or cause it seems...I would just pick a make of l-lysine and go with their recommendation and then tailor it from there.
|monkey 8 July 03
|Monkey, did your ulcers disapear as soon as you started taking l-lysine? I started taking it about five days ago- no noticable results yet- so just wondering how long I might need to wait to tell if its working? Also, what dosage do you recommend? Thanks

|Cant say ive ever noticed any tomato links with my ulcers.... but since i started taking l-lysine 4 weeks ago, i havent had a single ulcer. Also, natural live yoghurt contains the same beneficial bacteria as all the brand name probiotic health drinks and is much cheaper, I have it on its own, on curry or mixed with juice just cos it tastes nice =) The whole yoghurt/probiotic thing is basically about bolstering the immune system - healthy gut = healthy body...

| glad to hear this for ya friend :)
i may as well give it a try, looks like the good old tomatoe soup is out the window :)
ive just been to doctors and as soon as i said ulcers in the mouth he didnt know what to do :)
so he gave me some more mouth wash, a type i havnt used b4
its called difflam or something like that, ive rinsed 5 mins since and the relief is sweet :) i can feel a burning sensation in my mouth but its not a bad one, i really think its working against them :) my whole mouth is numb :D
i certainly hope it does werk, dentist in the morning anyways so ill see what he says.

|Hi Martin, interesting study, I hope you keep them at bay. Yakult is another one of those probiotic yoghurt supplement things - they crop up often as beneficial, other probiotic supplements (I think) include Actimel, Multibionta and natural yoghurt.

| Ive recently gone 4 months without mouth ulcers, something that hasnt occurred as far back as I can remember. Im 45 now and have been having mouth ulcers since I was about 14. Recently I got really tired of having a mouth ulcer or two every few weeks, so I put my foot down and decided to change a few things. Nearly all of my ulcers result from me biting my mouth/tongue or crunching something sharp, but I also suspected the tomato factor, after visiting this website. My new approach was to try to avoid being distracted during mealtimes, eat more slowly and, if possible, not talk and eat at the same time. In addition I now never eat sharp boiled sweets or toast. Ive also cut out tomatoes completely and have started drinking a daily dose of this good bacteria Yakult stuff.
I also try to completely avoid ever putting my fingers in my mouth as the slightest graze from a fingernail used to cause an ulcer. As I say, Ive now gone 4 months with no ulcers, but Im not sure which the most important factor of the above items is......
I dont recall biting my mouth/tongue recently, so maybe its just that Im eating much more carefully and pretty boring company at the meal table......?
But, whatever, the last 4 months have been a major breakthrough, whatever the precise solution is.......
Its the first time I can ever remember going months without buying more Frador/Adcortyl/Rinstead medication...

Science Scoops: Pluto: A Planet or Not?
by Amy Tao, art by Amy Loeffler
Poor Pluto. It's such a little pipsqueak of a planet, with a diameter of only about 1400 miles. (Compare that to Earth's 8000 miles!) It's even smaller than seven of the moons in the solar system, including Earth's. Pluto doesn't behave much like the other planets either. The path it travels around the Sun has a funny tilt and an unusual oval shape. And Pluto is made mostly of ice and rock—more like a comet than a planet. No wonder many scientists think it doesn't deserve to be called a planet.
To make matters worse, in October 2002, astronomers announced the discovery of Quaoar, a planet-shaped body with a diameter of about 800 miles. Quaoar is the biggest thing anyone's found in our solar system since, well, Pluto. But no one's calling Quaoar a planet. It's a KBO (short for Kuiper Belt object).
KBOs are small bodies that orbit the Sun in a region beyond Neptune called the Kuiper Belt. More than 600 KBOs have been identified since 1992, and scientists think there could be billions more. Some of them even have moons. Until now, the only real difference between KBOs and Pluto, which lies within the Kuiper Belt, has been size. Many of the visible KBOs are less than 100 miles in diameter.
This shows how big Pluto is compared to the U.S. Can a planet be smaller than a country?
But Pluto is not that much bigger than Quaoar. And scientists predict that more large KBOs will be found, perhaps some even larger than Pluto. Many astronomers argue, however, that even if we do find a Pluto-sized KBO, we should still consider Pluto a planet. What do you think?
- What is a KBO?
[anno: A KBO is a Kuiper Belt object.]
- How big are KBOs?
[anno: KBOs vary in size from small objects about 100 miles in diameter to objects about 800 miles in diameter. There might be even larger KBOs that have not yet been discovered.]
- Where do you think KBOs came from? Explain your answer in a sentence or two.
[anno: Answers will vary but could include that KBOs came from the collision of planets when the solar system was forming. Students might also answer that KBOs came from unstable planets or moons breaking apart.]

Jefferies analysts Laban Yu and Jack Lu argue in a note today that China's epic air pollution is actually saving lives.
Wait what?
Here's their case:
Yes, of course China's smog problems are very real — they lead the world in premature deaths caused by air pollution:
But this massive pollution is actually a sign of rising living standards, they write:
The difference is that industrialization - with its incumbent air pollution - eliminates poverty. Among the top twenty nations with air pollution induced premature deaths are the US, Japan, the UK, Germany and Italy - all wealthy developed nations.
As it turns out, more people die prematurely in India from problems caused by a lacked of advanced infrastructure like diarrhea and poor ventilation or burning of coal and animal dung for heat (which they categorize as "indoor air pollution"):
But a better measure of China's standing on public health is illness, disability and early death (DALY), a metric created by the World Health Organization.
By that criteria, China is not even in the top 20 —
And only a few notches behind Brazil:
Yu and Lu point out that China's air pollution is the fruit of industrialization, and that industrialization is a life saver.
The public health effects of air pollution cannot be viewed in isolation. Nobody believes air pollution is a great thing but nations continue to pollute because civilizations make hard choices. And air pollution is not even that hard a choice. Higher cancer rates in old age are the price that China, and many other nations, have chosen to pay for lower death rates from childhood diarrhea.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - South Carolina's attorney general has notified the U.S. Justice Department of potential voter fraud.
Attorney General Alan Wilson sent details of an analysis by the Department of Motor Vehicles to U.S. Attorney Bill Nettles.
In a letter dated Thursday, Wilson says the analysis found 953 ballots cast by voters listed as dead. In 71 percent of those cases, ballots were cast between two months and 76 months after the people died. That means they "voted" up to 6 1/3 years after their death.
The letter doesn't say in which elections the ballots were cast.
The analysis came out of research for the state's new voter identification law. The U.S. Justice Department denied clearance of that law.
Wilson told Nettles he asked the State Law Enforcement Division to investigate.

Private organisations and enterprises
Public and private partnerships can lend their support to the campaign by helping to raise awareness through their specific channels, such as the tourist industry and airlines, hotel chains, trains and taxis. The campaign material can also be used and promoted by industries that produce clothing and toys for children.
Internet service providers, telephone companies and important websites have huge potential for creating and promoting a safe online environment for children.
There is practically no limit to the initiatives that could be undertaken by private enterprises and organisations towards eliminating child sexual violence, as long as these remain within the scope of the campaign and promote the Lanzarote Convention.
The first private partner to join the campaign was the advertising agency Grey Amsterdam which developed with the Council of Europe "The Underwear Rule" concept. This agency also mobilised a number of world renowed artists and producers to help with the production of this work.

LEWISTON, Idaho (AP) — Add Lewiston to the list of Idaho cities to ban discrimination based on a person's sexual orientation. The city council voted Monday night for language adding sexual orientation to its non-discrimination policies. The Lewiston City Council voted 5-2 to outlaw discrimination in hiring of city jobs. Leaders in Twin Falls voted 5-2 to add sexual orientation to the anti- discrimination and harassment policy for city employees.
Lewiston and Twin Falls now join Boise and Sandpoint in taking the official step to prohibit discrimination on hiring for city jobs based on a person's sexual preference or orientation. The votes also come nearly a year after state lawmakers rejected a bill to ban workplace and housing discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity.

Majumdar Joins Materials Engr. Faculty, Dec. 6, 1999
SOCORRO -- Bhaskar S. Majumdar recently was named to the full-time, tenure-track position of associate professor of materials engineering at New Mexico Tech.
Majumdar enters his new position at the state-supported research university after having spent the past seven years as a senior scientist at the Materials and Manufacturing Directorate at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. In that capacity, Majumdar served as principal investigator on several research contracts involving metal-matrix composites and interfaces.
Prior to that, he was a principal research scientist at Batelle Laboratories in Columbus, Ohio, where he conducted and marketed research on materials for government and industry contracts.
Majumdar earned his technical bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology in Kanpur, India, and his doctorate in materials science from the University of Rochester in Rochester, N.Y.
At New Mexico Tech, he currently is teaching Advanced Composite Materials, a graduate-level course offered by Tech's materials and metallurgical engineering department.
"The greatest leaps in technology are taking place in materials science--it's the most exciting area of research today," Majumdar asserts. "Materials science requires an enormous team effort; and because of its interdisciplinary nature, the possibilities are just endless in terms of synthesizing materials with new mult-functional capabilities, spanning the range from structural to electronic to biomedical applications."
Majumdar describes his own research background as "having been mostly involved with the mechanisms and mechanics of materials," although his numerous research projects also included synthesis of new microstructures and interfaces. Some of those projects requireed inter-disciplinary collaborations with solid-state physicists and polymer chemists.
One of Majumdar's current research projects focuses on interfaces in metal-polymer composites, which have practical applications in electronic chips, corrosion prevention of metals, and the burgeoning field of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS). The latter are fascinating electro-mechanical devices, such as movable mirrors or gears, which are the size of microscopic dust mites.
Another project involves the development of thermal barrier coatings, which are often used to enhance the reliability of surfaces in high-temperature environments, such as fan blades in turbine engines.
"But, regardless of whether you are worried about the failure of MEMS components or the fracture of turbine blades, you have to first understand why and how these failures occur," Majumdar points out.
New Mexico Tech's latest addition to the ranks of materials engineering faculty also mentions that trying to improve funding for undergraduate research will be one of his immediate priorities in his new position: "Providing state-of-the-art laboratory equipment can only serve to give undergraduates
here at Tech an enhanced educational experience," Majumdar says.

The world's first commercially available module-building cotton harvester rolled off the line July 11 — witnessed by Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and employees at the Case IH manufacturing plant in Benson, Minn.
The machine is the Case IH Module Express 625, which allows growers to save capital, fuel and labor by combining cotton harvesting and module building in a single operation. The Benson plant is ramping up production to fill orders for the Module Express in time for this fall's harvest.
The new machine continues a Case IH tradition of cutting-edge cotton technology. In 1943 the company introduced the first commercially successful mechanical cotton picker, the H-10-H. The original machine, known as "Old Red," has been donated to the Smithsonian Institution and named a landmark of agricultural engineering by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers.
Like its predecessor "Old Red" the Case IH Module Express has the potential to transform the cotton industry, because it's designed to fit the needs of ginners as well as growers, says Trent Haggard, Case IH marketing manager for cotton harvesting.
"In the development process, we listened to input from the industry. Our engineers made sure that the Module Express fit with existing cotton production practices, with no additional handling, logistics or costs," Haggard says. "That's especially important when you consider that many of today's cotton growers are also gin shareholders."
Case IH began testing various concepts for a module-building cotton picker in the 1970s, including configurations that produced round bales and smaller rectangular modules.
"The overwhelming favorite concept of ginners and farmers alike was an 8-foot by 8-foot by 16-foot module, which is exactly half the size of traditional modules. That means gins can handle our modules with zero additional investment.
"Ginning Case IH modules and traditional modules together is a seamless operation. A modern cotton gin that produces 60 ginned bales per hour will be equally maximized while ginning the Case IH module," Haggard says.
With the Module Express, a single machine does the work that previously required a picker, a boll buggy and a tractor to pull the cotton to a separate module builder operated by another tractor. That means operators can reduce their investment in fuel, labor and capital. Cost savings with the Module Express total 25 percent compared to traditional cotton harvesting methods, according to a study by Mississippi State University economist D.W. Parvin.
"With this equipment you can cut your labor force by more than half. It makes life a lot easier," says Jimmy Hargett, who field-tested four Module Express units on his farm near Memphis, Tenn.
The Case IH Module Express utilizes an environmentally friendly, 16-foot tarp to protect bales from weather damage. Tarps are made of a reusable material to eliminate the risk of contaminating the finished product. If twine or plastic enter the harvest or module building system, it can be ingested into the cotton gin and even woven into the dyed cotton, resulting in a defective garment.
"For environmental reasons, we appreciate not having to use disposable plastic covers on the modules," says Kenneth Hood, past president of the National Cotton Council and a farmer and ginner in Gunnison, Miss.
"Besides avoiding potential contamination, the reusable tarps are durable and cost-effective. They can be used up to five times per season and last up to seven years, resulting in a low cost of 31 cents or less per ginned bale," Haggard adds.
The Module Express offers productivity advantages in the field, too. Compared to a traditional module, the Case IH module is not pressed into the ground. The densely packed module can be loaded into the truck more easily, with minimal waste.
Full modules can be unloaded either at the end-row or elsewhere in the field, depending on the operator's needs and the size of the field. "In 60 to 70 percent of fields, operators will be able to leave ready-to-load modules at the end-row, to be picked up by a module truck with no need for a mover," says Haggard.
Designed with optimal traction and flotation characteristics, the Module Express harvests just as effectively on wet or dry ground. The machine has a longer wheelbase than most traditional pickers, giving it optimum front-to-rear machine balance. Low-inflation front dual tires and large steering tires leave a minimal footprint in the row. Yet, the 365-hp Module Express has plenty of heft with a 9-liter powerplant and an all-wheel-drive powertrain.
Because it picks cotton from both sides of the row, the Module Express also harvests more cotton with each pass. For a custom operator like Darryl Pasket of Anderson, Texas, that means more money on his bottom line.
"The Module Express picks the field cleaner. When you're paid by the lint pound, the added productivity of the machine makes a big difference," Pasket says.
Yet these productivity gains don't add maintenance, Haggard points out. "The engineers at Case IH added functionality without requiring additional service and maintenance points. The new machine actually requires less maintenance than a traditional basket picker."
Production of the Module Express 625 comes on the heels of two recent design awards from the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASABE). The Module Express 625 was recognized in June with ASABE's AE50 award for engineering excellence. The AFS Cotton Yield Monitor, an option on the cotton picker, also received an AE50 award. The awards are based on commercial impact, contributions to agriculture and technological significance.

Taylor Swift's Red Tour Breaks Country Music Record
She's done it again. Taylor Swift has broken yet another record -- and this time it's because of her Red Tour.
The Red Tour, which made it all over the globe, grossed over $150 million! With these huge numbers, she broke the record once held by fellow country stars Faith Hill and Tim McGraw's Soul2Soul Tour. The country couple's tour grossed $141 million in 2006 and 2007, but Swift's run breaks the revenue record for a single tour.
Swift's tour just wrapped up in Asia in May. It began in March 2013 in Nebraska and stayed in North America for six months before going overseas. Her first stops across the ocean were Australia and New Zealand at the end of 2013. She then took a much needed tour break and hit the road once again, going to London, Berlin and then finishing up in Asia on May 30.
Like anything Swift does, the tour was one for the record books. It reached 15 stadiums, including the Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts, where she scored her best box office numbers. In all, she sold 1,702,933 tickets at 86 shows in 12 different countries, Billboard.
Now that her lengthy road run is finished, what's a girl to do? The 24-year-old singer is taking a little break from traveling and is working on her next album. Swift's pal, Ed Sheeran, even let fans in on a few things that we could potentially see from the 'Red' singer in the future ... the near future!
Would Taylor Swift Ever Get a Tattoo?
