Hand harvested by from salt flats near the Bay of Cádiz, flor de sal is considered by many to be the finest quality sea salt in the world. The light and fluffy flor de sal crystals are versatile enough to use in nearly any recipe and are an essential ingredient in home and restaurant kitchens around the globe.
This blend of flor de sal contains a hint of red wine as well as smoked paprika, cloves and ground pepper. Highly aromatic with a hint of spice, this salt is a wonderful choice for seasoning grilled red meats and hearty stews.
Salina San Vicente is one of the last remaining companies producing salt in the salt fields above the Bay of Cádiz. Manuel Ruiz, his wife Reglín and their children are the fourth generation of the Ruiz family to run Salina San Vicente.
For the last 3,000 years, numerous civilizations have used these small salt flats in the Bay of Cádiz. Only 60 acres in diameter, the flats take advantage of strong, constant winds from the Sahara Desert in Africa that facilitate the evaporation of seawater.
To harvest the salt of Salina San Vicente, briny seawater from the Bay of Cádiz is channeled into elongated ponds, where it remains for about six weeks. During this time, the salt is concentrated through evaporation and the salt acts as a natural purifier - leaving a very clean saline water that will eventually produce flor de sal.
The saline water constantly flows from one pond to another through gravity. No machinery or water pumps are necessary to facilitate the process.
The salt harvest begins in the hot months of July and August each year. Every evening, flor de sal, or 'flower of the salt', is gathered from the surface of the water. Clean and delicate, with a unique flavor, flor de sal delights food lovers around the world. After hand picking, the flor de sal is sun dried and sieved to remove all impurities. The salt is never washed and contains trace minerals including iodine, iron and calcium.
Sea salt, ground peppers (5%), red wine (5%), smoked paprika (1%) and cloves (0.1%).

I'm typically willing to put up with an asshat as long as he can play. I guess it's a "end justifies the means" kinda thing. If im in a run run its for a reason, be it badges, loot, rep etc. If the asshat will help me achieve my end, so be it. It can be really hard/frustrating to get a full group for anything. Ill take what i can get

Foreign investors looking to invest in the fertile farmland of Argentina will be significantly limited by the Rural Land Law, passed in late 2011 by the Argentine Government. Argentina is concerned over the growing amount of foreign ownership of their natural resources. Nearly 7.0% of Argentina's arable land is owned by foreigners, according to the Agrarian Federation of Argentina. The Argentine Government will now track ownership of its natural resources and limit further expansion of foreign ownership via the new land law.

Danny Granger's 23, George Hill's big 3-pointer in OT help Pacers clip Cavaliers
CLEVELAND -- One of Indiana's players wrestled Cleveland's furry mascot before the game. The Pacers then had to fight off the spunky Cavaliers.
Danny Granger made a 3-pointer in overtime and scored 23 points, and George Hill made a dagger 3-pointer in the extra session, lifting Indiana to a 104-98 victory on Wednesday night and allowing the Pacers to hold onto the No. 3 spot in the Eastern Conference for one more day.
David West added 19 points, Hill had 17 and Roy Hibbert finished with 11 rebounds, five assists and four blocks for Indiana, 6-1 in its last seven. The Pacers outscored the Cavs 10-4 in OT and stayed just ahead of Boston, Atlanta and Orlando in the standings.
This was a dogfight -- playfully and literally.
During pregame introductions, West got into a mock fight with Moondog, the Cavs' floppy-eared mascot, who often interacts and teases opposing players. West accidentally struck the character in the mask, sending him to the hospital with an eye injury.
"I feel terrible about that, I really do," said West, who was visibly upset. "We were just having fun. We were just messing around. I really hope he's OK. Make sure he knows I'm sorry."
A Cavs spokesman said the mascot was checked out and released.
Hibbert thought Moondog was joking when he went down holding the head of his costume.
"For real?" Hibbert said. "We thought he (Moondog) was just playing when it happened. Oh man, that's crazy. I can't believe it happened. I've never heard anything like that in the NBA."
Antawn Jamison scored 21 and Lester Hudson 19 for the Cavs, who dropped to a league-worst 0-5 in overtime games. The Cavs, who were just 2 of 9 in the extra five minutes, were officially eliminated from the playoffs.
"We fought hard," Hudson said. "We played very hard, but we just came up a little short."
The Pacers should have put the Cavs away in regulation but Hill, starting in place of the injured Darren Collison, missed three free throws in the last 21 seconds.
West opened overtime with a bucket for the Pacers, who went without a field goal for a 6:41 stretch of the fourth that allowed the Cavs to overcome a 10-point deficit and open a seven-point lead.
Granger then nailed a 3-pointer, and after Hudson scored for Cleveland, Indiana's leading scorer made an 18-foot jumper to put the Pacers ahead 101-96. After Jamison misfired, Hill put the Cavs away with his 3, making it 104-96 with 53 seconds left.
It was some vindication for Hill, whose three missed free throws gave the Cavs late life and they tied it when Hudson, the D-League castoff who came in averaging 24.7 points in his past three games, dropped a sweet floater in the lane over West with 1.2 seconds to go.
The Pacers had one last chance in regulation, and Hibbert nearly made an impossible shot, arching an attempt from behind the backboard that bounced off the front of the rim.
Indiana finally took care of business in overtime.
"We knew we were in a tough fight tonight," West said. "We're playing for home-court advantage, so there is no room for any slippage on our part."
Indiana improved to 17-14 on the road, the club's first winning record outside Indiana in eight years.
Cleveland played its fifth straight game without rookie Kyrie Irving, who has a sprained right shoulder.
The Cavs were down 78-68 after Dahntay Jones dropped a 3-pointer for Indiana.
But Hudson heated up and the Cavs responded with an 18-1 run, taking an 86-79 lead on Omri Casspi's 3-pointer from the left wing. Hudson scored six points during the improbable run, which the Pacers helped by making four turnovers and missing four shots.
Indiana ended up going nearly seven minutes between field goals, with Hill's 3-pointer with 4:19 pulling the Pacers within 88-85.
Hill then converted on two drives and after Hibbert dunked, the Pacers appeared on their way to a win, leading 93-89 with 30 seconds left.
Hill, though, failed to put the game away at the line and the Pacers had to work an extra five minutes to hold onto their playoff seed.
"George Hill made some huge plays," said coach Frank Vogel. "He's down on himself right now for missing those three free throws, but I told him he was the reason why we got the lead back. He was able to turn the corner and make some plays for us."
Game notes
Hill was getting treatment after the game and not available. ... Collison was inactive, but sat on the bench in warmups because he forgot to bring a sport coat on the overnight trip. The league requires any players not dressing to wear a suit jacket. ... Irving worked out with a trainer on the floor before the game, and coach Byron Scott ruled his young star out through Friday's game at Indiana. There's still a possibility the Cavs will shut down Irving, a virtual lock to be named the NBA's Rookie of the Year, the remainder of the season. ... Cavs C Anderson Varejao also remains sidelined after breaking his wrist on Feb. 10. There's also no clarity on when -- or if -- he'll be back. ... Cavs backup C Semih Erden left on crutches after rolling his ankle in the first half. X-rays were negative.

American Idol said goodbye to Dexter Roberts on Thursday night. The 22-year-old country musician from Fayette, Alabama, was eliminated after falling into the bottom two with Jessica Meuse .
For his swan song, Dexter took on Montgomery Gentry 's "Lucky Man," which he previously performed last month, when the top 12 tackled songs that reminded them of home.
On Wednesday night's "competitors' picks" performance show, Dexter covered Luke Bryan 's "Muckalee Creek Water."
The half-hour results show began with a cameo from Kevin Bacon , who stars in the Fox drama The Following .
The top six will return to the American Idol stage next Wednesday night on Fox.

Catholic apologist Jimmy Akin presenting his godson Colin to Bishop James Sartain of Little Rock, for Confirmation
[ source ]
Some of the passages below were drawn from "Where Is Confirmation in the Bible?" -- in the bestselling New Catholic Answer Bible, by Dr. Paul Thigpen. I've added many more, presently. I'm co-author of the "apologetic inserts" in that Bible, but Paul wrote this particular one. I had compiled a number of Bible passages in the original Catholic Answer Bible (I was sole author of those inserts). The latter is now available for as low as $2.34, used, at amazon. The newer version is bit more! The first version, alas, never mentioned my name as author: talk about humility . . . All passages are RSV.
* * * * *
[the 62 passages previously listed here are now available only in chapter eight of my book, Bible Proofs for Catholic Truths]
The Holy Spirit's Descent Upon Persons / "Received" / "Poured Out"
Baptism With the Holy Spirit
Being "Filled" With the Holy Spirit
Being "Filled" With the Holy Spirit
Laying on of Hands Associated with the Coming of the Holy Spirit
"Sealed" With the Holy Spirit
Anointing With Oil For a Sacred Purpose or to Receive the Holy Spirit
(See 170 more passages with "anoint" or "anointed": Part One / Part Two)
Holy Spirit Received Through the Channel of Authoritative Persons
Holy Spirit Received Through the Channel of Authoritative Persons
The bishops are the successors of the apostles, by apostolic succession.
* * * * *
Thus, we see that all essential elements of the Catholic Sacrament of Confirmation, are present in Holy Scripture, and quite explicitly so:
1) The Holy Spirit can "descend" upon persons.For the related notion of the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit, see many passages compiled in my paper, Orthodox Catholic Christology: A Theological Primer (middle section).
2) The Holy Spirit can be "given" as a "gift" to persons by God the Father.
3) The Holy Spirit can be "received" by persons.
4) The Holy Spirit can be "poured out" to persons.
5) The Holy Spirit can "fall on" persons.
6) A person can be "baptized" with the Holy Spirit.
7) A person can be "filled" by the Holy Spirit.
8) A person can "receive" or be "filled with" the Holy Spirit by means of the human
instrumentality of laying on of hands.
9) A person can be "sealed for the day of redemption" by the Holy Spirit, as a "guarantee of our inheritance."
10) A person can be anointed with oil in order to be commissioned or set apart or consecrated.
11) A person can be anointed with oil in order for the "Spirit of the Lord" to come "mightily upon" them.
12) Authoritative persons (popes, apostles, prophets) preside over this giving and receiving of the Holy Spirit.
13) And these authoritative persons in the Church do this by the laying on of hands (Peter, John, Paul).
14) And they do this by anointing with oil (Samuel and David).
15) We know from other evidences in Scripture that bishops are the successors of the apostles.

The Juneau School District has concluded our investigation into allegations that on or about May 30-31 of this year a group of incoming senior boys hazed/initiated a group of incoming freshmen boys by paddling them multiple times.
These events were first brought to our attention in early June. At that time the district began an initial investigation, which, due to an active police investigation and summer vacation, was put on hold. When we were informed that the police had concluded their investigation we resumed our efforts.

Last night I had a dream where I was at a club in the bathroom. Some dude that looked like Jay Davis bumped into me by accident and we started to fight. This dude that looked like the Gandhi character from Clone High with dredlocks helped me out. He was really lanky and a surfer dude. I just ran around a lot trying to keep this guy from beating me up. Anyway... Jesus shows up. He has a surf board and someone said "Jesus knows kung fu AND Surf Fu!" Then we surfed a giant wave and jesus did these cool hand signs and then I woke up smiling.
And now I'm a Christian.
Testify to the power of surfer Jesus.
Join the Prime-Punch revolution!

I should mention that this bathroom was no regular bathroom because inside the stalls the toilets were down a full flight of stairs that you couldn't walk down.

Born Free USA Global Field Projects
Bali's Wildlife — ProFauna
Established in East Java in 1994, ProFauna Indonesia is nongovernmental organization dedicated to protecting Indonesia's wildlife and forests. ProFauna is particularly focussed on improving the law enforcement response to the illegal trade in wildlife and to bringing about improvements in the conservation status and welfare of the country's many important species.
The Bali office was officially established in 2001 in direct response to the rampant wildlife trade on the island. A landmark 1999 investigation and report by ProFauna revealed the slaughter of an estimated 9,000 sea turtles in four months on Bali, highlighting the scale of the illegal killing and trafficking of sea turtles on the island. This exposé led to recurrent enforcement operations and a consequent steep drop in the trade.
Since then, ProFauna Bali has kept a watchful eye on developments and forged a close relationship with wildlife authorities and been involved in significant wildlife seizures involving marine turtles, birds and ivory. to cite just a few. Born Free has been co-funding the Bali Office in Denpasar alongside Humane Society International Australia since 2006.

How To Make Use Of Large Bedroom?
Good Questions
Q: My boyfriend and I recently moved into an apartment that has a bedroom much larger than what we're used to. There's a lot of unused space between the foot of the bed, desk/bookshelf on the far wall. We are thinking about putting a couch or loveseat at the end of the bed and a TV next to the desk to create an additional area for socializing in the apartment. However, I'm afraid that any kind of sofa would look too tall or too wide against the low MALM double bed. Can you suggest any small couches that might work for this area? We are both graduate students and are on a somewhat tight budget.

Don't make your bedroom a social center. You don't have to fill up space. Instead, put in a comfy reading chair or two and a good lamp with a small table to hold your coffee cups. That will be more versatile.
beautiful space.
i'm with barefoot. put in something you're going to actually use...or alternatively- something you don't mind looking at when you're relaxing in bed.
Why is the bed smooshed against a corner? Perhaps you should center the bed against a wall in the room for better balance.
Agreed. I made this mistake a couple apartments ago... space is not there to fill. A reading area, a desk area, or moving the bed seems ideal. I would put the bed between those two windows pointed out, with bookshelves on the newly empty wall, or the reading area there (on the left), away from the blast of the a/c.
I agree with the others who suggest moving the bed between the windows. I shared a smaaaaaaaalllllll bedroom with an ex once, and we had no choice but to put the bed on the corner. After two years of crawling over him to get to the bathroom and beck I swore I would never push the bed in a corner again.
If you do decide to move the bed you will have room for a nightstand for each of you, and still have plenty of room, for a second desk perhaps?
I agree with most everyone so far- center the bed on the wall with the windows and add a small table and chairs in the corner where the bed currently is.
separate the room into sections using area rugs and furniture. Try these sections: sleeping area, dressing area, sitting area, getting ready area.
When you divide a room visually, it feels less vast and makes for a warmer, more inviting space! :) GOOD LUCK!
Maybee a low shelf as divider at the footend of the bed & two or three beanbags for the sitting area? They are less massive than a big sofa.
Why is the bed crammed in the corner?
Put it between the windows where it belongs, and get some night tables, lamps and a dresser in there!
You're right that a couch or loveseat might be too large. What about a couple of slipper chairs instead? Prices vary significantly and you can definitely find a pair in your price range.
I agree with others that the bed could be repositioned, but that really depends on what functions you want / need for your room. If you're really just looking to fill space, then go with what others have said. If you need it to be more multi-functional, I think a couple of chairs would be best.
Good luck!
Could you move the bookshelf to the wall at the foot of the bed and then take the small table there to about where bookshlf is now and place a couple of reading chairs on wither side? If placed just right it could hide a bit of the air conditioner. Art over the chairs, the right lighting and a rug to double as an exercise mat would give you enough weight and warm up the space.
I agree with the rest of the posters that the bed would be great between the two windows and add on some nightstands. Then maybe a reading nook by the red poster.
For the reading nook, you could put a small sofa or loveseat if you wanted or alternatively a chaise or lounger. West Elm, Chiasso & CB2 have some nice low options (caveat... I'm only looking online). Maybe you could check craigslist for a preloved piece?
Another option is to have a low, long console table with the tv on top. I had one in my old apartment living room that was just a few feet high.
I can see where you're going, you wanted to face the tv while in bed but that's pretty far. Plus, I don't think it is conducive to restful sleep to be facing a work area. I have my tv on the side of my bed (but on a oscillating arm mounted on the wall). It's closer and ultimately more comfy for us to lie on our side together to watch tv than trying to squint at a tv 15 feet away at the end of the room.
I agree with pretty much everyone above. Move the bed out of the corner and in between the two windows. Then use rugs to define distinct spaces in your bedroom- office space, sleeping, dressing, etc based on what space is left.
Its a lovely apartment- enjoy!
I definitely agree with not making it a social place, but rather your own comfy lounge area. If you like to read, study or just relax you have your own area to covet.
Thank you so much--these are all fantastic suggestions!! We'll try them out and let you know how it goes.
I agree that having the bed smooshed in the corner is not ideal. Unfortunately we can't center it on the current wall because it would block the fire escape (or is that allowed? I have no idea). We have thought about rotating it and placing it between the windows, but it would come pretty close to the opposite wall (which is hard to visualize from these pictures). But I might try that again and see how it looks.
@pleiovn -- We do have two great closets on the wall opposite the windows!
I totally get it now why you want the sofa at the end of the bed. You know, AT had a post on that a few months ago.
Wow... I can tell you guys are not used to space. Your furniture is hugging the walls. BREAK OUT! Put the bed front-and-center between the windows. How about splurging like 500 buck on a comprable IKEA queen bed instead of a double?
As for your other space issues, if you are on a budget, consider hitting a vintage shop for an old trunk to put at the foot of the bed or against a wall...
If your bed won't fit turned 90 degrees between the windows, it my be worth considering angling it out from the corner, would still give you room for small bedside tables, and a trunk or sittable upholstered ottoman at the foot. Anchoring it with a big-ish rug would help the bed seem like it's part of the rest of them room instead of shoved completely in the corner. You would probably still have room for a reading corner as well, I have a low chaise in my bedroom that I love reading in! It's good for tv watching too of course.
Depending on how much clearance you have, rotate the bed and center it between your two window. You'll then have 2 more even and smaller spaces created by the bed acting as a room divider. Never smoosh the bed into a corner or against a wall unless you absolutely do not have space in the room. Being able to access the bed from both sides is important especially when you are sharing the bed with someone else.
Think about creating a reading nook by one of the windows or a working area depending on your needs. A few area rugs will help to create a cozier ambiance.
Have fun, you have a great room to furnish!
I would move the bed out of the corner. Most people think this is a no-no, but if you really want to eat up some empty space, you can angle the bed in a corner. It's supposed to be bad feng shui, but that's how my bed is because that's what works best in my space.
I was thinking the same about the bed location - move it to center stage. (Especially in apartments, I always try to see what arrangement they had in mind, and once I think about it that way, it's usually obvious.)
Then a sofa, or loveseat or chaise makes good sense to me. Ikea's Kivik reads as low and horizontal - bet it would work for you. Just got one myself and so far I love it.
While keeping tge room relatively uncluttered makes sense, so does making the most of the space you have, and having a retreat for those times, say, the roommate wants to watch a chainsaw movie and you'd rather read (or vice versa) - just good sense.
I have to say I'm with the others who are suggesting you spread out the furniture a little more. Seeing as you're not used to having so much space maybe you've forgotten how to enjoy it? :)
But if what you really want is the additional sofa/tv area why don't you try something different like big floor cushions? You can make something really comfy and less obtrusive than a couch. Maybe a small shaggy rug under it so it looks more intentional.
Ditto on putting the bed between the windows. That's the arrangement I have in my bedroom, and I really like it.
Some other ideas to use or ignore, depending on what works for you:
-- what do the windows look out on? If a nice view, you might want to put a small desk in front of one so you have something pretty to look at while working at your desk. (You can get small, inexpensive, light desks at Pier One or Cost Plus, if not on craigslist - something just big enough for a laptop and a lamp would be good)
--I wouldn't put a couch at the end of a bed, but a nice wicker storage chest would be great for storing extra blankets, linens, etc.. Or you could put a nice bench or banquette there - some place to sit while you get dressed, or you could put shoes underneath. Or there are surely some nice storage benches (even better), for combined seating and storage.
--If you have good lighting, some plants would be good (if they're not a hazard to any pets). Years ago, when starting a garden outside my then-apartment in SF, I used to go by my local Sloat gardening center on trash night and gather up bedraggled plants that they'd tossed out (and that were perfectly easy to revive).
--Are any other rooms of the apt overcrowded with stuff? If so, you could move some things from there into your bedroom (but stop before you overfill the bedroom ;) ) -- more bookcases, a coatrack, tv, stereo, etc.
--I also agree with other commenters' vote for floor cushions. You can stack them up when not needed, or spread them around for lounging or entertaining. Also, if you have pets, they love them. I bought 2 outdoor chair cushions for my indoor bistro set; they stand up very well to my 2 cats. Poufs in traditional Moroccan style or contemporary style are also a good idea. I bought some pouf covers on etsy months ago, and gradually filled them with a mix of pillow fiberfill, old T-shirts, old pantyhose, and plastic inflatable packaging (of the sort you get in Amazon shipment boxes). They add color to the room, and work for guests or pets.
-I also agree about a reading nook. Sometimes you want to curl up in a chair, rather than lying down, to read. Get a comfy chair, a nice reading lamp and a little side table for a drink, and set that up in a corner of the bedroom.
--if you need still more storage, some stacked elements (modern boxes or hat boxes or vintage-looking suitcases) would be handy and would add visual interest.
--Another nice addition would be some big standing candleholders, for architectural interest and possibly for a certain romantic touch.
Good luck, and post some "After" pics down the road after you have fun decorating :)
p.s. the area rugs that others suggested, above, are also a great idea -- A nice white flokati rug would really make the space feel cozier and should look great against that floor. You can get smaller sizes fairly cheap from the big catalog retailers. (Bonus to flokati rugs: they stand up well to feline attention; my girlcat sometimes "kneads" the flokati rug, and it doesn't show any damage)
--artwork, large framed posters, a mural, stencil or decals on one wall would also help the space, and work well if renting
Does this room have to be the bedroom? Is the living room even bigger?
Repositioning the bed between the windows would definitely be an improvement but as I don't live in a home with a need for air-conditioning (Ol' Blighty, bah!), I'm wondering, how noisy would it be for the person who would be sleeping nearest to that AC unit, and also, how draughty would it be? No point in having a beautifully laid-out room if one of you ends up suffering from constant sleep deprivation and a permanently stiff neck!
I'm one of those people who like to sleep in small cosy spaces so I would hang a room divider like a curtain or something like it at the end of the bed to make the sleeping area smaller. Then you wouldn't have to worry about the height of the bed when choosing the seating. If not then small mid century 2 seaters are usually quite low and would work well the the low bedframe. Also I'm with confounded - I would angle the bed out from the corner so one of you don't have the crawl over the other to go to bed. Then you could put a triangle shelf behind the bed to make use of the otherwise wasted space in the corner to put things like the alarm, reading material and whatever you night time ritual requires on. Or you can keep the bed just as it is and just move it 10 inches away from the short wall to make room for a shelf to serve as a bedside table for the person slepping up against the wall.
This might be a good place to do one of the IKEA style things that was touted here last week. Not sure how to describe it, but here is the link: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/at-email/ikea-2012-preview-design-ideas-worth-stealing-151826
put the bed in the middle of room.
If it doesn't fit on the other walls, why not center it on the same wall as the entry door? You would probably be able to get a little more clearance on the left side of the bed so no one has to crawl over the other person (which trust me, gets old pretty quick). That would also leave the opposite wall, where the bed currently is, free for a chaise lounge, loveseat, or desk.
Blocking the fire escape is probably fine, as its just for your use.... probably not the SAFEST solution, but not illegal as far as I know. If it was something that needed to be publicly accessible, that would be another story.
I say DEFINITELY move the bed. A big bedroom is a luxury - think about what you will actually use - especially if you don't have roommates, a TV and a sofa in the bedroom seems a bit redundant. As long as there is still room to get by, I think it's fine if its a bit tight there. It will create two separate "zones" in the room, on either side of the bed.
The zone closest to the door could be a reading area, with your desk/bookshelves, a comfy chair and a great lamp, and a rug.
For the zone on the other side of the bed, furthest from the door, maybe a dressing area? A bench for sitting and laying out clothes, a small dressing table for jewelry/makeup (since you have room, you could move that kind of thing out of the bathroom).
This is what I'd do if I had more space in my bedroom.
As it is, I live in a newer townhouse, and our queen size platform bed takes up the ENTIRE room... there's barely room to walk around it... we took the doors off of our closet, because you couldn't walk past them when they were open! Envious of your space!!
I'd love to have your problem. I agree with the advice above. Don't make your bedroom another area for socializing, it's your haven! Why have you put the bed in the corner of all places? Move the bed forward and towards the center of the room, giving access to the fire escape. Put a dressing area with a closet against the head of the bed, thereby creating a headboard but still giving access to the fire-escape, if I understand you correctly. The area forward of your bed then becomes your lounging area. Put a low daybed at the foot of the bed so it makes the bed more of a rectangle instead of a square which is awkward in a rectangular space. Rugs will make each area welcoming.

Article from Sorted.org.nz
One of the things on the minds of many New Zealand workers will be deciding whether or not to join KiwiSaver.
You've probably heard about government incentives such as the $1000 kick-start to your savings, and the maximum $1042 annual "tax credits". But there are also the employer contributions to consider.
Every time you're paid super, either 2, 4 or 8 percent (you select the amount), of your before-tax pay will be automatically deducted from your take-home pay and sent to your KiwiSaver account.
Your employer now has to match your contributions to KiwiSaver, at a minimum of 2 percent of your pay. Your employer may also contribute more than this amount.
If you can afford it, and you don't mind the funds being locked in until you're 65, or older, then KiwiSaver could provide an easy and affordable way to save for your retirement. Keep in mind that KiwiSaver won't suit everyone. There are other savings options that may be more flexible and work better for you.
If you do decide to join KiwiSaver, another decision you will need to make is where your money is invested.
If you prefer, you can choose the provider your KiwiSaver funds are sent to and the type of investment option for your savings. If you would rather not choose, your employer may have a preferred provider they'll send the money to, or the government will select one for you.
To help New Zealanders with the complicated task of working out which KiwiSaver fund is most suitable for them, a KiwiSaver fees calculator is available on Sorted. This provides an independent estimate of KiwiSaver fees to help you make a more informed decision regarding which KiwiSaver provider and fund to choose.
Note that it is important to not look at estimated fees in isolation when choosing a KiwiSaver provider. The level of risk (and associated return), service level and communication offered by the fund provider should also be considered.

UK Environmental Accounts, 2014
02-Jul-2014Environmental accounts show how the environment contributes to the economy, the impacts that the economy has on the environment, and how society responds to environmental issues. They include natural capital accounts (oil and gas), physical accounts (fuel use, energy consumption, atmospheric emissions, material flows, and water), and monetary accounts (environmental taxes and environmental protection expenditure). For 2014, experimental natural capital accounts (land use and forestry) are also included. Environmental accounts are 'satellite accounts' to the main National Accounts and they are compiled in accordance with the System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA), which closely follows the UN System of National Accounts (SNA). This means that they are comparable with economic indicators such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

UK Natural Capital – Initial and Partial Monetary Estimates
02-May-2014A first attempt by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to expand on existing approaches to estimate a monetary value for components of UK natural capital for the period of 2007 to 2011. ONS estimates that the monetary estimate of selected components of UK natural capital was £1,573 billion in 2011 – 4.1% lower than in 2007. This is mainly due to a fall in the monetary value of UK sub-soil assets. It is important to emphasise that these numbers reflect attempts to estimate a limited segment of the UK's total natural capital. However, they provide an illustration of some of the methodologies that ONS is employing to value these components and how their value may be evolving over time. The methodology to develop these estimates remains under development and the estimates reported should be considered experimental. Further work will be undertaken to develop and improve them.

Mexico City • A senior U.S. official says there is strong circumstantial evidence that Mexican federal police who fired on a U.S. Embassy vehicle, wounding two CIA officers, were working for organized crime in a targeted assassination attempt.
Meanwhile, a Mexican official with knowledge of the case confirmed on Tuesday that prosecutors are investigating whether the Beltran Leyva Cartel was behind the Aug. 24 ambush.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
The Mexican official said that is among several lines of investigation into the shooting of an armored SUV that was clearly marked with diplomatic license plates on a rural road near Cuernavaca south of Mexico City. Federal police, at times battered by allegations of infiltration and corruption by drug cartels, have said the shooting was a case of mistaken identity as officers were looking into the kidnapping of a government employee in that area.
"That's not a 'We're trying to shake down a couple people for a traffic violation sort of operation. That's a 'We are specifically trying to kill the people in this vehicle'," a U.S. official familiar with the investigation told The Associated Press. "This is not a 'Whoops, we got the wrong people.' "
Photos of the gray Toyota SUV, a model known to be used by Drug Enforcement Administration agents and other U.S. Embassy employees working in Mexico, showed it riddled with heavy gunfire. The U.S. Embassy called the attack an "ambush."
When asked by the AP if the Mexican federal police officers involved in the shooting were tied to organized crime, the U.S. official said, "The circumstantial evidence is pretty damn strong."
Both the U.S. and Mexican officials spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the diplomatic issue.
A federal police on Tuesday maintained the position that their agents fired on the vehicle by mistake, thinking it belonged to a band of kidnappers they were pursuing, according to a spokesman who was not authorized to speak on the record.
The U.S. State Department declined to discuss details.
"We will not comment on an ongoing investigation," said William Ostick, a spokesman. "This is a matter of great significance to both our countries and we will continue to cooperate with Mexican authorities in their investigation."
The Mexican official said one line of investigation is that members of the Beltran Leyva Cartel were interested in attacking the people in the car because some of their lookouts had seen them passing through the area and presumed they were investigating the cartel. It's possible they didn't know they were Americans.
The rural road near Cuernavaca where the attack took place is known territory of the remnants of the Beltran Leyvas, a once-powerful cartel now run by Hector Beltran Leyva since the Navy killed his brother, drug lord Arturo Beltran Leyva, in Cuernavaca in late 2009. Beltran Leyva was once aligned with Mexico's powerful cartel, Sinaloa, headed by fugitive drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman. But the groups split in 2008 and continued government hits on Beltran Leyva leadership since then have splintered that cartel into small gangs warring for the area.
The CIA officers were heading down a dirt road to the military installation with a Mexican navy captain in the vehicle when a carload of gunmen opened fire and gave chase. The embassy SUV tried to escape, but three other cars joined the original vehicle in pursuing it down the road, according to the original navy statement. Occupants of all four vehicles fired.
"This is somebody with a powerful automatic weapon just unloading an entire clip, reloading, and continuing to fire at that same impact point, clearly with the intention of penetrating the armor and presumably killing those who are inside," the U.S. official told the AP.
Surveillance cameras in the area recorded two civilian vehicles chasing the U.S. Embassy SUV, the Mexican official said. So far Mexican officials have said only federal police fired on the SUV.
The two CIA officers received non-life-threatening wounds and have returned to the United States. The navy captain was uninjured and radioed the navy for help.
Twelve officers have been detained in the case and are being held under a form of house arrest pending possible charges, and 51 officers have testified in the case. The FBI, which is leading the investigation for the U.S., has been in on interviews of the detainees. At FBI headquarters in Washington, spokesman Paul Bresson declined to comment.
A Mexican federal police spokesman said last month that the officers may not have noticed the diplomatic plates. The official said police focused on the unusual sight of a bulletproof SUV traveling at high speed on a rural road, not on the car's distinctive diplomatic plates.
But Raul Benitez, a security expert at Mexico's National Autonomous University, said Mexican military sources have told him that "the attack was not an error," and "the objective was to annihilate the three passengers in the car."
"The same car with the same people had been going up and back (to the marine training camp) for a week, so perhaps some lookout who worked for drug traffickers informed the police, or the Beltrans" about the vehicle, Benitez said.
He said the federal police must have known that they were attacking a diplomatic vehicle.Next Page >

Gavin DeGraw, David Cook & Carolina Liar at SPA Homecoming Week Concert: A Review
Posted by Stephanie Williams on 10/12 at 11:56 AM
Gavin DeGraw and David Cook kicked off their national fall tour - and Penn State Homecoming week - as the headliner for the SPA concert this past Sunday. Although the concert was a bit behind schedule, that didn't stop fans from standing up and running to the stage the second the lights went out.
The concert started with Carolina Liar as the opening band. The band did exactly what it was meant to do: get the crowd on their feet, and excite the crowd for the concert. They played a few songs from their new album, Wild Blessed Freedom, and closed with their hit "Show Me What I'm Looking For," with the whole audience singing along. The set was very tight and energetic and it was obvious that the artists worked very well together and knew exactly what was going on.
Following Carolina Liar was the first headline act, David Cook. This is Cook's first tour post-American Idol and he sang many tracks from his new album, This Loud Morning along with hits "Light On" and "The Time of My Life." The crowd loved the performance and sang along with most of Cook's songs. Cook really moved around the stage with energy during his performance and actively interacted with the members of his band. He also played guitar on most of the songs. There was a funny moment when he had a "wardrobe malfunction" and awkwardly changed guitars with ripped pants. David Cook also surprised everyone when he jumped off the stage and walked around the floor of Rec Hall amongst all of his fans. After this stunt, however, he lost the interest and let the energy dip with a few cover songs like "Movin' Out" by Billy Joel and "Champagne Supernova" by Oasis.
The concert ran a little late and Gavin DeGraw did not even get on stage until 11:00 p.m. However, the second he entered, the crowd exploded and immediately cheered and sang along with the tracks. DeGraw and his band knew that the audience was getting a little tired, so he moved the show along and kept the energy flowing throughout his set.
DeGraw did an incredible job of picking an energy-filled set list with a nice mix of fast songs, ballads, and hits. His second song, "Chariot," was his hit. But for the rest of the show, he just held the attention of the audience performing other hits "Not Over You" (from his new album Sweeter), and "In Love With a Girl," mixed in with the rest of his tracks.
The live show also showcased Gavin DeGraw's extensive musical ability. Along with singing, he often had a guitar or was sitting behind the piano. When he sang "Spell It Out," DeGraw created a very intimate setting that almost held the atmosphere of a small piano bar. DeGraw had great chemistry with his band and kept his songs crisp and tight. For his solo performances, the rest of the band exited the stage to add an extra element of intimacy.
Overall the concert was a huge success, and Gavin DeGraw shared that emotion with the audience a few songs before the close. He expressed how he was nervous about how a tour would be received and thanked the fans for their continued support. He did a phenomenal job of really connecting with the audience and keeping everyone engaged and entertained throughout his set.
If you missed the concert at Rec Hall, the tour is continuing for the next two months across the nation. For more information click here.

Eight Die On Kentucky Roadways Last Week (Feb. 6 through Feb. 12)
Date of News Release: 02/14/2006
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - Preliminary statistics* indicate that eight people died in eight separate crashes on Kentucky's roadways from Monday, Feb. 6, 2006, through Sunday, Feb. 12, 2006.
Preliminary data* indicates alcohol was not a suspected factor in any of the eight crashes. Five of the victims were not wearing seat belts and one victim was a pedestrian.
The pedestrian fatality crash occurred in Pike County. The remaining seven single fatality crashes occurred in Fulton, Graves, Jefferson, Pike, Powell, Trimble and Washington counties.
Through Feb. 12, 2006, a total of 67 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways. This is 29 fewer than reported for this time period in 2005. Twenty-eight of these 67 fatalities were not wearing seat belts.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas.

|Livingston, John
|Letter from Capt. John Livingston RAMC
|A letter from John Livingston to family at home in Barrow. Includes some jokes and stories overheard in the trenches and from The Sporting Times.
This is one of about 16 letters and service postcards sent between July-October 1918. Some are in ink, some in pencil, some illegible. Most describe where John is writing from, where he has walked/been driven by car or field ambulance that day " assuming he is not the orderly for the day. In general he appears to be behind the lines, but probably where the front line once was before a push forward. Some letters describe the movements of the war, and politics back home and in Russia (the revolution, the Czar), and in America. Some describe medical cases in France, soldiers and civilian (male/female), some describe cases at home " some very candid discussions of symptoms/cases etc.
Part of a large collection of photos and other memorabilia relating to the life and work of John Livingston (1872-1959), Barrow-in-Furness, Scotland, who served as a surgeon with the rank of Captain in the Royal Army Medical Corps (Territorial Force) in France during the Great War. Livingston obtained medical degrees from Glasgow " later moving to Barrow, as GP. He married Annie Walker in 1899, a hospital nurse. The sister of John Livingston was the grandmother of John Jenkinson. The complete archive of Livingston (and his wife Annie and son Ian) was received by Sue and John Jenkinson after a cousin's death, being the last of his relatives.

Dating website: Philly women among country's most expensive
Philadelphia women are the country's most expensive – at least when it comes to auctioning off dates, according to dating website WhatsYourPrice.com.
They may also be among the most willing demographic let men bid money to "win" a date with them.
WhatsYourPrice.com, which lets singles bid on and sell dates, saw in the first week of May a record 6,170 new female sign-ups.
Of those sign-ups, the largest percentage were women from Philadelphia, with 81 new single ladies from the city of Brotherly Love joining the site in that time.
Philly was trailed by San Diego, which had 78 new sign-ups, Portland with 77, Minneapolis with 74 and St. Louis, which had 70 new sign-ups.
"WhatsYourPrice.com's recent female growth in Philly proves that women are willing to invest into a first date if the opportunity gives a worthwhile incentive," CEO and founder Brandon Wade said in a statement.
He noted the average cost of an accepted first-date offer in Philadelphia is $139, much higher than the sitewide average of $80.
"With an average first-date offer of $130, women clearly value every worthy chance at falling in love," Wade said.

Two men are accused of committing two armed robberies early Thursday morning.Police say D'shaad Johnson and Jermaine Taylor were armed with guns when they approached an off-duty employee at the Sonic near Indian School Road and 99th Avenue. The men allegedly climbed into her car, demanded her keys and wallet and told her to open the door at the restaurant. The woman told them she didn't have the keys to open the store, so the suspects took her keys and cellphone and left. According to police, Taylor and Johnson then went to an International House of Pancakes near Central Avenue and Thomas Road where they attempted to commit a second armed robbery. The suspects allegedly walked into the restaurant carrying guns and asked where the manager was. The manager ran out the back of the restaurant while one of the men chased him. Police say the men then got into a Ford Explorer and eventually crashed into a power utility pole near 23rd Avenue and Bethany Home Road while being pursued by officers. The men both allegedly tried to run away, but officers caught up to them and took them into custody.Taylor and Johnson were arrested and face charges of attempted armed robbery with a deadly weapon, kidnapping, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, criminal damage and unlawful flight from law enforcement.

89 notes &
Wal-Mart's impact on wages and benefits was most clearly shown in 2002 when it announced plans to open 40 Supercenters in California over the next three years. California was then a stronghold for Safeway, Albertsons, and Kroger, three of the largest grocery chains in the country. In contrast to Wal-Mart, which has succeeded in keeping unions out of its U.S. stores, these three chains have unionized workforces, and their workers were paid about 50 percent more than workers at Wal-Mart and had much better health insurance programs. The big three chains believed, with some justification, that these costs would be a fatal handicap in the coming battle to defend their market share against Wal-Mart. They therefore demanded that their workers accept a new contract that contained no wage increases and would require workers to contribute substantially to their health insurance. In effect, the workers were being asked to take a pay cut. The result was the biggest strike in California's history, but against their employers' fear of Wal-Mart, even 70,000 united workers could gain little. After 20 weeks on strike, they agreed to take a contract with reduced benefits. Wal-Mart, or the threat of it, was forcing wages and benefits down.

I'm friends with this girl on facebook, and evidently she pierced her own nostril, by herself, presumably in a bathroom or another area of her house.
What's Awful: Just look, the needle sticking out of her nose is a clear testament to the fact that self-piercing is always bad. I predict an infection before the night is over.
How it can be fixed: She can take out that god-awful needle and go to a professional, licensed piercer if she wants the thing so bad.
