My Chocolate Souffle Steepster Select came yesterday with this in tow. Reminded me of an apple chai. Not enough apple came through as I had anticipated from the aroma. Given the name, I thought it may have a natural sweetness from the caramel/almonds, but that wasn't true either. Going to have to give this another shot but my first impression is of slight disappointment. Not a bad option (especially as it's caffeine-free) for an evening tea, but not great either.

After recovering from an injury that threatened to end her running days, Kathy Pratt says she learned something that can help other athletes: select doctors and caregivers who share your goals. "I felt like I had a whole team of people at IU Health who were committed to getting me back out there," says Pratt. "I learned that surgery isn't always the best option and that a physical therapist can improve your flexibility and gait with small things, and a lot of those things can really be helpful," she says.
Pratt credits her recovery to a physician who understood her goals—Robert Klitzman, MD, a sports medicine physician and orthopedic surgeon at Indiana University Health Physicians Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. As a runner himself, Klitzman thought Pratt's knee pain could be addressed with physical therapy. Much to Pratt's delight, he referred her to a physical therapist who is a veteran marathoner, Jan George, PT, DPT, OCS.
George designed pre-run and targeted stretches for Pratt. She also analyzed her gait and reprogrammed Pratt's body to achieve better form. With small changes and detailed exercises that could be done at home, Pratt slowly resumed her running routine, becoming a better runner than she was before.
"What impressed me most was the variety of techniques she used to find out what worked best with me," Pratt says. "Sometimes, she used visual imagery, or she had me listening to my steps to make sure they were light and even—without favoring one side over the other." George also videotaped Pratt's run to help her see what needed to change.
A few months after physical therapy ended, Pratt started training for the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon, which she completed last November. After being told she should never run again, it was a huge accomplishment. "I just felt like they gave me back the gift of running," Pratt says. "I'm just a middle-aged woman, trying to get out there and exercise, but they treated me as if I were as important as an elite athlete."
With 10 half marathons and one full marathon under her belt, Pratt is focused on improving her speed this year. An injury challenged her to develop a better attitude toward life and running, more patience, and greater sympathy for people dealing with health issues. "You go through life thinking nothing will happen to you, and when it does, it makes you stop and think," says Pratt. "It became a real privilege to run."

Can church employees work at one church and worship at another? Off the Agenda recently explored this question on our sister site, BuildingChurchLeaders.com with mixed feelings. Blogger Tim Avery asked these follow-up questions in response:
• If the church can't meet all of your spiritual and relational needs, do you expect it to meet the needs of others?
• Does your role impede your ability to relate to the community because you are placing too much weight on your responsibilities?
• Can you really fulfill your role well without being fully involved in that community?
• Is your perception of the church as employer something that needs to be fixed or fled from?
While Avery ultimately objects to the idea of having two church homes–one for work, one for growing–there are some church administrative assistants who would advocate for this situation.
A few of our readers find it very difficult to work as an administrative assistant and worship at the same church. Here are their concerns:
"Sometimes I miss out on fellowship because I am running around helping."
"It's difficult to worship uninterrupted at church."
"At first I didn't find it hard to attend worship on Sundays, but as time went by people started seeing me as 'the secretary' anywhere they saw me. As it became a problem, my pastor talked to the Deacons, Elders, and other church leaders to get their support. I am learning to just ask them to call me in the office on Monday, e-mail me, or leave a voice mail. It continues to be a challenge at times to balance my work life with worship."
While many have legitimate concerns about working at their home church, others feel they are able to minister more effectively because of the position they hold in their church office. Church administrators that belong to the church where they serve often have a better gauge on leadership and congregational issues facing their church, as well as a deeper investment in supporting the church's ministry efforts.
No matter how you're divided on this issue, unique problems exist for both groups of church administrators. Dr. James Cobble, the former editor of Church Office Today newsletter, offers the following tips to reduce potential problems with respect to your membership and employment status.
If you worship where you work:
One of the greatest problems for administrative assistants who work at their own church is "role confusion"–knowing when you are at work and when you are not. Your tendency is to initially take on every job and responsibility regardless of time or location, but this quickly leads to burnout and even bitterness toward your church and its members. To prevent this from happening, develop strategies to create boundaries in your work. Use the following seven strategies as a launching point:
1. Clarify your responsibilities. Make sure you and your boss understand your job description.
2. Understand who can assign you work.
3. Learn to say "no" without feeling guilty. You are not expected to do everything for everybody.
4. Educate your congregation to communicate work concerns during your regular office hours or through written notes, or an e-mail rather than contacting you at home, or during worship.
5. Recognize that your pastors are human and may make mistakes.
6. Maintain strict confidentiality on matters involving congregational members.
7. Since it can be difficult to seek counseling on personally sensitive issues from a pastor who may also be your boss, build other nurturing relationships that are available if the need arises.
If you do not worship where you work:
Two common problems that exist for those of you who are not members of the church where you work are staying informed on issues and concerns that arise during church services or events, and getting to know the people and culture of the church. Here are five tips to help you feel more in-the-loop at your workplace:
1. Develop an informational network. Be active in collecting information and getting to know those in charge of ministries.
2. Make visual connections with callers. If the church has a pictorial directory, use it every time a member calls whom you do not know.
3. Read whatever is available concerning the history of the church.
4. Attend some social functions at the church to deepen personal relationships.
5. Maintain neutrality if divisions arise, and stay focused on your service to the entire church.
Where do you stand on this topic? Do you feel it's better to worship where you work, or can it be beneficial for church administrators to have a second church where they feel free to worship uninterrupted?

Yoona is seen sitting closely with a man making a peace sign pose. Behind Yoona are a bunch of soju and beer bottles. Yoona looks slightly rosy as though she's had a few drinks."
Netizens commented on the picture saying, "Did she have a few drinks?", "I'm envious of that man" and "She still looks beautiful."

I know you all have been eagerly awaiting this, so without further ado...
If you've been reading the articles about the new Gillette Fusion you'll know there have been several new innovations with this razor. Five blades for regular shaving and a lone sixth on the back for tough spots like under the nose and sideburns. More densely packed microfins under the blades to help whiskers stand up for a closer shave. And in the powered department, auto-shutoff after eight minutes, a low battery warning light, and an easier opening/closing to the compartment which houses the battery. All of these are truly quality improvements, but in the end all you really care about it is a better shave, right? The new Fusion does shave better than the Mach3, but with some caveats, so keep reading and see if you agree by the end.
Fusion vs. Fusion Power:
I don't think there a noticeable difference in the resulting shave between the powered and the non-powered version of the Fusion. Where I do think there is a difference is in the act of shaving. I like power, and if you haven't tried it, I think you're missing out. The powered version vibrates, and that vibration somehow translates into less drag against your face. When you pull the unpowered version of the Fusion across your face, you feel a slight tug against your skin. With the powered Fusion, it's a smooth glide. I suppose it's a matter of personal preference, and the thickness of your beard, but I would strongly recommend trying a powered razor at least once before poopoo-ing it at your next party.
Now the other difference that people always talk about when comparing these razors is the fact that with the unpowered Fusion you get two cartridges along with the razor and with the Fusion Power you only get one. The cartridges are expensive and no doubt there's savings to factor in here, but seriously, the cost of one additional cartridge over the course of a year is really insignificant. I agree Gillette should have packaged the Fusion Power with two cartridges, but they didn't. End of story.
Fusion Power vs. Mach3 Power:
Sounds like I'm repeating myself here but I don't think there's a noticeable difference in the resulting shave between the Mach3 Power and the Fusion Power. Where I do think there is a difference is in the act of shaving, and in the razor itself. The vibrations on the Fusion Power seem tighter and more powerful. I made sure to replace the battery in my old Mach3 before testing these head to head, and I think there's a slight improvement in the Fusion. Both give a seemingly frictionless shave, and both perform admirably after one, two, and three days' worth of growth, but somehow the Fusion Power's vibrations seem to stack up better. I'm sure they spent quite a bit time on the vibration mechanism and it shows.
Battery replacement on the Fusion is much easier than on the Mach3. With the Fusion it's a simple twist and the compartment locks and unlocks. With the Mach3 you feel like you're going to break the plastic when you're closing it up. Also, the auto-off feature it huge. You can finally travel with this razor and not have to worry about running down your battery accidentally.
Now let's talk about that sixth blade. Here's the most marked improvement in shaving. A return to the single blade. Shaving with the Mach3 can be a challenge in certain areas, such as under your nose and around your sideburns. It's hard to tell when in that paddle of a cartridge the aloe strip stops and the blades begin. You end up shoving this razor head up your nose to hopefully catch those errant hairs. With the single blade on the back, tough to reach spots are a snap. This single feature might just be the real reason to switch.
There was one area where the Fusion didn't hold up to its older brother, and that was in the life of the aloe and soap strip on the top of the cartridge. This is supposed to act as an indication of when you need to replace the cartridge, kind of like those toothbrushes with the blue bristles which lose their color with use. I found that the Fusion's aloe/soap strip wore off pretty darn quickly, after only three or four shave, while with the Mach3 I could go to five or six shaves and still have plently of that colored strip. Personally I don't think that strip adds much. As long as you're using a high quality shaving cream the effects of the strip are minimal. Just know that you've got a few more shaves in the cartridge once that strip is worn off.
So what should you do? Well, if you're a non-powered Mach3 fanatic who thinks the whole powered razor idea is a gimmick to sell more razors and batteries, stick with what you've got. However if you're at all interested in that sixth blade for the tough to reach spots, it might be worth the ten bucks to see what all the fuss is about. Then you can poopoo with first hand experience.
If you're a Mach3 Power user, I think you should check out the Fusion Power. The cartridges are not compatible, so use up your current stock before switching, but I think you'll be happy with the upgrade. Again, the vibrations are better, the auto-off is a welcome addition, and oh that sixth blade!
And remember, now that the Fusion is the premium brand, the prices on Mach3 blades will likely fall. It's a win win for everyone!
Last check on Amazon the Gillette Fusion unpowered was $7.99, the Gillette Fusion Power was $8.99, an 8-pack of Fusion blades was $24.99, and an 8-pack of Fusion Power blades was $27.69. Oh yeah, and I don't think there's any difference between the two types of blades.

Tried the Fusion but for shaving the junk in my trunk I use a Hair eRazor. Economical and efficient
After using my Fusion for about eight months I found that the handle was getting sticky and could not be cleaned. The plastic(?) part has since degenerated into a gooey sticky mass and in order to use up the remaining (expensive) blades I have had to do a DIY job with plastic tape on the handle before I bin it and find a suitable alternative, although I must acknowledge that it does give a good smooth shave.
I enjoy the Fusion commercials: Hipe over truth and seeing those actors pretending to shave as they look like first time shavers with their approach. I've had a Fusion for several months now and it shaves nicely but takes longer as it does not do well around the nose, lips, and jaw line without repeating coverage. It is smooth, but on a recent roadtrip I reverted to my old Gillette Sensor and found little difference exept it was faster and much better around the nose and ears for getting rid of hairs growing at random. Easier to trim eye brows, too. I just hope the Sensor blades stay on the market a while but they seem to be getting scarce.
So, I see little point to the Fusion except profit for Gillette. Oh, yes, I have been using Gillette shavers since the days of the Blue Blades. Yes, over 50 years.
As a user of their shaving products for over 20 years - and not having so much of a problem - I am complaining about a faulty razor blade.
As a cyclist I regularly shave my legs always using new blade and never the same on as I use on my face. This particular morning on shaving my ankle I found that the blade had sliced open my ankle with a 2-3 inch gash - which can be only described as a potato peeling type wound - (Photos to prove).
On inspection I could see that the lubrastrip - the green slimey thing was not present in the blade that sliced my ankle - it had obviously fallen out and was not attached to the blade effectively - the absence of this dramatically changes the angle of the gaps on the razor head and therefore changes the angle of the blades as they drag - (they don't glide without a lubrastrip) across your skin - and this change in angle makes the balde change from a razor to a peeler as the gap and movement of the blade widens to the point it removes your skin.
With my ankle gushing blood into the bath and my children getting ready for school i asked my wife (a qualified nurse) to help me stop the bleeding which we managed - and disposed of the faulty blade - (skin still attached so it was out of the way of my two children for their own safety).
I now realise this was the major error as P & G asked to examine the blade at fault - which I didn't have so they asked to examine one from the same pack - which were blades i had finished using and by my own conclusion knew they were not fit to use to shave effectively - (you know when they start to drag a little on your skin and you think - this isn't sharp anymore).
From this used blade they concluded that it was clogged with shaving residue - and old hair - er yes it was a blade i had discarded back into the holder pack because I no longer used it!
So in the course of my complaint P & G have based their conclusions not on the photos of my leg and the damage that it is plain and obvious to see - but on a old blade already discarded that was used to shave my face not my leg - (I should point out the differences in the type of hair in face and legs - generally softer on your legs that face so should be easier to remove).
I would like to say that the final - (apparently) conclusion is that P & G see no fault in their product that sliced my leg - and they see the matter as closed.
So why was I walking around with an open wound on my ankle - that re-opened as soon as i moved my foot around for well over a month and a half and having to clean it and dress it every day to stop infections - and still have a scar on my skin well over four months later.
I have to say that I have been dismissed by them as a complainer of their product - and that my injuries that are plain to see in my photos have also been dismissed as well
It seems they have washed their hands of this particular complaint and see that their product is not at fault.
Disappointed Customer...
Fusion was a waste of money and I had so much razor burn from it. I now use Schick Hydro amazing for real I cant describe it but its the best razor I used
i dont know what to buy, Power or Fusion. i have tough beard. i shave every after 3 days. anybody have an idea.
This is an awesome razor. I finally have the reason I've been looking for to pitch my Mach3. There's a lot less drag across my face (as mentioned in the article), it gets a closer shave with fewer strokes, and there's barely any skin irritation afterwords. That's a huge plus since I have sensitive skin. Also, I never get the feeling like it's pulling hairs out of my face like I did with my Mach3. The precision trimmer/shaper blade on the top is also really neat. It makes maintaining my circle goatee much easier. 5 stars.
I bought a fusion yesterday and used it for the first time this morning and i have to say i'm disappointed. I've been using a Mach 3 for years and always had a great, smooth finish after little effort.
With the fusion i had to go over my face 3 or 4 times and i still have rough spots that it just can't seem to get rid of.
I also noticed very little difference in the actual feel of the shave and the amount of irritation during and after.
The single blade is an interesting idea, but need development as i feel it is too incased in the plastic of the head to be of much use.
On the plus side, i expected there to be more clogging with the amount of blades, but was pleasently surprised to find that this was not the case.
On the whole i would suggest people stick to the mach 3 if you have particularly tough stubble as i do. You will find that the mach 3 leaves you with a much smoother finish in much less time. The fusion seems like a step backwards in the actual finish of the shave, while being a step forward in innovation.
Perhaps the inevitable 'improved version' will be worth getting when it is released as these bugs may have been sorted by then.
i just got the Gillette Fusion Power since one month. i did not try Gillette Mach3 but i know it is a great product from gillettte too.
my short experience show the following:-
1- Smother and safer shaving even if u shave verrry quickly as i normally do. before i was always hurting myself :(
2- 6th blade is great for the sideburns but it nonfunctional after 3 shave times.
3- I did try the normal cream and the brush, the gel and a shaving foam. the foam is the best as i think.
4- hair will not stuck to the blade and it is easy rinsed but fine hair stuck to the orange front part of the razor and i can not clean it.
As a conclusion Gillette Fusion Power is agrat value specially for sensitive skin and busy people.
I used the Mach 3 for years then the wife bought me the fusion. I used the fusion for a year and half until the other day. The wife likes the M3 for the personal areas and I was out of Fusion cartridges so I used hers. Their was a HUGE difference. I believe the spacing in the Fusion is flawed. The blades are too close together which doesn't allow the stubble to slip in between the razors and allow the razors to lie against the skin. I was amazed at how one pass with the M3 allowed for a total removal of stubble while it usually takes at least two with the Fusion. Less passes equals less friction equals less irritation equals less ingrown hairs on the neck. I'm going back to the OG M3. Heads-up, Kiehls has an outstanding line of shave creams. I use the blue eagle goggle-fogger. It's a bit more expensive but completely worth it. I will never buy a supermarket brand shaving cream ever again. I shave every other day against the grain. With Kiehls I can do against the grain two days in a row if I have too, not that I do so on a regular basis, and I have painfully sensitive skin around the neck area.
I started using Fusion (unplugged) when I got my freebie in the mail a couple years ago, and haven't looked back. Yes, the replacement cartridges are ridiculously overpriced, but nothing I've tried matches the perfect heft of the shaver handle. As for the blades, I have been able to squeeze more than double the number of shaves from these than I ever could from cheaper alternatives, and still have a cleaner face than I ever was able to get on the same cartridge. This morning, I got a good shave from the same cartridge which I started using daily a month ago - those who complain about them not lasting may need to learn how to take care of their cartridges. Previously, I was using Shick X-track (triple-blade) disposables.
On Fusion vs. Mach III, I tried Mach III before I switched to X-track, and found X-track to be much easier to rinse out. With Fusion, I did not so much have this complaint, so the five blades really do seem less tight than the three blades of that Mach III waste product. Scientifically, five blades should distribute the wear more evenly over the product than three, two, or one. With regular rinsing (at least once for each side of the face, chin, and mustache) they will last a long time and keep shaving smooth.
On Gillette shaving cream, don't waste your money! If you must have cream on your face (yeeuchh), I highly recommend Barbasol, which is not just thicker, but it will save you money. Joy gels aren't quite necessary either. A worthwhile investment is a shaving mug, brush (both easily available online) and a few cakes of glycerin-based soap. The first two products will last for years, and just one unit of the third will last for about two months at the price of one Gillete gel product - do the math! Since I have so much of it, and without a better use, I've been using Irish Spring bar soap on my face since the spring - it takes a minute to lather up, but it's slick as any soap and smells great!
I have been using the Gillette Fushion Power ever since it came out. I haven't really tried any other razors because I really liked the way it gave me a close shave. However, lately it seems I shave and in an hour I can already see a shadow. I feel I don't get the close shave as I used to and I get lots of in-grown hairs on my neck. It is also really hard to get the hair on the sides of my 'throat' area. I don't know what to do!
Can somebody give me some advice?
I use EDGE ultra sensitive shaving cream...
I have used the Mach 3 power for years together with King of Shaves oil to great effect. Got the Fusion Stelth the other day and well I hate it. It has got some pluses: better designed handle, power button, single blade. But the minuses are simply too great to continue with it. The biggest failing is that it doesn't shave well. Felt like it was ripping the hairs out of my face rather than cutting them, the blade is SOOOO BIG that it simply didn't touch some of the curved on my face and I had to resort to my trusty M3 to finish off. The vibrations didn't seem as focussed as the M3 either, and it seemed to numb my fingers rather than stimulate my face. The end result was not all that impressive either with regrowth appearing sooner than the M3.
As a side comment to quinton above, I too have to shave my face more than once in different directions to get n acceptable finish. ANd with the fusion it's worse.
Well i have used both Mach3 and The Fusion without batteries.
My beard is really thick.
I do not recommend Fusion peronally i think that the Mach3 is way better overall.
Ratings from my point of view
+Very good grip and nice design
+Seems to shave closer to my skin
-The 6-Blade that is used for sideburns/precision is not effective at all!
-I need to shave the same spot 3 times only 2 with mach3
-It is terrible fragile if you drop it your blade is probably permanetly damaged!
-The price for new cartridge is terrible high much higer than Mach3
I do not reconmend this product Gillette fusion at all.
I have better experiences with the old Mach3.
Though a great shave, buyers should beware that the Fusion is a very delicate razor. The attachment between the body and head is very fragile. Drop it once and you will have to replace the razor head which is very expensive.
I just picked up the Fusion Power about a month ago and I have to admit that it's not too bad. The powered version is actually quite a bit more comfortable to use, much to my surprise.
However, I've found that for my beard, with as tough as it is and as thick as the hairs are, the Mach 3 is just much more comfortable. The Fusion doesn't so much cut the hairs as it does yank them out. It's like I'm waxing my face instead of shaving it.
I accidentally grabbed my Mach 3 with the last remaining cartridge the other morning when I wasn't thinking straight and I couldn't believe how much more comfortable it was for me. If you've got a softer/thinner beard the Fusion is probably a good choice, but with a thick/hard beard, the Mach 3 is still the way to go.
I shaved with a complimentary Gillette Fusion today for the first time and I got what I feel is the best shave I have ever had. Love the razor! Can't get over how close the shave was and how smooth my face feels and not one nick.

I bought the fusion power and find the battery powered option of minimal user benefit.
I have yet to find a razor that removes hair in one stroke.I find that I have to go over the same area at least three times to feel the desired smoothness I require.The gillette fusion power is no exception.Do any of you guys have the same experience? fill me in on this point,im curious.I find this so time consuming coz im shaving my face three times,if you really think about it.Sadly the fusion power does not do it for me in this area as you feel that "tug" and stubborn blade response.
I use "King of shaves" lubricant which disintegrates the gillette lubristrip in two shaves and results in a sticky blade.
Overall the gillette fusion power gets a thumbs down from me especially on the price.
i had used the mach 3 for 10 years and tried the fusion power last year and will never go back. it is much smoother, though the 6th blade is useless. i have used both the power blade and the non power blade on the shaver and noticed a slight difference. the power blade is a bit smoother and dosen't pull/catch off the bat. with a new non power blade it seems like it takes a few shavings to get it "broken in" then it gets smoother. out of the box the power blade is jumps and leaps better. i would suggest to get the power blade if you use the power razor or not.
After using Fusion power 2 times here are my early conclusions:
1. The cartridge surface is wider than early versions and the shave feels a bit different than the M3Power. You need at least 3-4 times to get use to it.
2. Although the blades are closer I didn't get any hair stuck between.
3. I do agree that there is some feeling of pulling the hair. I guess it's because the blades are closer to each other comparing to the M3Power.
4. I didn't find the single blade on the back of the razor very effective.
5. Overall, The Fusion gave me a smooth and better shave but I'm not so sure that I'll be willing to pay so much for it. I might get back to the M3Power...
I don't like the fusion at all and I've used the mach 3 for years. It's by far harder on my face than the mach 3. It feels like it's pulling my hairs out. I'm going to use up the blades I bought and then toss it in the trash.
Fusion cartridges will work with the Fusion Power, and vice versa. Honestly, I can't tell a difference between the two types of cartridges. There may be a difference number of microfins, and one may have Gillette's EasyGlide coating, but the shave I get is the same.
I already bought Gillete Fusion with 16 blades, I'm intersting to buy Fusion Power system. my question is:
1. Can I use Fusion Cartidges with the Power Fusion?
2. what is the difference between Fusion Cartidges and Fusion Power Cartidges ?
The razor is really great - good coverage and nice shave - but only if you use the right shaving cream. The Gillette Fusion shaving gel is absolutely horrible - stick with the razor, skip the Gillette shaving cream.
The silicone is far too sparse and disappears with one pass of the razor - try a second pass, and you've got problems. Gillette should stick with their business and their business is not shaving cream. I'm sure some lame Consumer Product Manager is using words like brand extensionn and synergy in describing the traits of this shaving gel - unfortunately, they can't use words like "it works" and "people like it" it their price/promotion spreadsheet.
There is in fact a difference between the blades. The Fusion Power ones have Gillette's EasyGlide coating whereas the regular ones don't. This improvement first appeared when they went from the Mach3Turbo blades to the M3Power blades.

I very much like long books but I'm OK with "medium" size books too.
I would probably pick longer books in preference to under 200 page books.
My current two favourite SF authors are Peter F. Hamilton and Neal Asher.
Asher writes "medium" length books but Hamilton goes for the epic size.
I have the "Night Dawn's" trilogy in hardbacks and those 3 books are really heavy (each is close to or over 1000 pages).
But I love those books! The story is so vast, there are so many "main" characters, it's great!
I have also read other long books, by other authors, which frankly bored me. I guess it's up to the writer to keep the reader turning the pages. Some can do it and some cannot.
This may sound weird but with a long book that I really like I start feeling a bit sad once I get to the last quarter or so.

Brazil's government crop supply agency forecast record soybean output of 90.03 million tonnes on Tuesday, near the top of its previous forecast of 87.9 million to 90.2 million tonnes, as farmers finish planting new fields.
If confirmed, the crop would surpass last season's record 81.5 million tonnes by 10.5 percent, and the South American country could overtake the United States as the world's top producer of the oilseed for the 2013/14 crop year.
Area planted with soy expanded by 6.2 percent from a year earlier as farmers chose the crop over alternatives such as corn, the agency, Conab, said in its third monthly estimate of the season.
January soybeans on the Chicago Board of Trade were bid 0.09 percent higher at $13.45 per bushel on Tuesday.
Conab said irregular rainfall earlier in the season in the principal center-west region had given way to a good overall climate as soy plants enter their growth and flowering stage. Soy planting nationwide is about 95 percent complete.
A caterpillar previously unknown in Brazil, the helicoverpa armigera, is forcing farmers to use more pesticides than usual in most producing regions, raising costs but not yet threatening output, Conab said.
Brazil's wheat crop forecast rose 11 percent to 5.36 million tonnes, up from 4.81 million tonnes in November, due to favorable weather in top producing state Rio Grande do Sul. Conab said the state may have its highest-yielding crop ever, also helped by new pest-resistant crop technologies.
The sharp increase in the wheat forecast is surprising, given that the harvest is in its final stages and Conab had reported damage from frosts that hit southern Brazil in July. If the forecast is confirmed, Brazil's wheat output would increase 22.4 percent from the previous year, reducing import needs slightly.
In the 2012/13 crop year that ended July 31, Brazil imported 7 million tonnes of wheat and exported 1.68 million tonnes. In 2013/14, Brazil will need to import 6.7 million tonnes but will only export 500,000 tonnes, Conab estimated.
The agency also forecast a 2013/14 corn crop of 78.8 million tonnes, in line with the 78.5 million to 79.8 million tonnes forecast last month.
Brazil's corn output comes increasingly from the second of two annual crops; the second is planted around February after soybeans are harvested. Conab did not calculate a forecast for the second 2013/14 crop and instead used the record 2012/13 second crop output of 46.2 million tonnes to tabulate its full-year estimate.
The second corn crop could shrink significantly as farmers have little incentive to plant corn due to a national surplus and low prices. Some farmers are instead contemplating a second soybean crop.
For the second straight year, Brazil's soy exports, estimated at 45.9 million tonnes, will likely surpass domestic consumption of 40.5 million tonnes, helping to replenish global stocks. Corn exports will likely fall to 18 million tonnes in 2013/14 from 22.5 million tonnes a year ago, Conab said.
The market relied on Brazil's record corn crop last season, briefly making it the top global exporter of both soybeans and corn, but the United States is expected to export more corn in 2013/14.
Conab's forecast for the 2013/14 cotton lint crop was left unchanged at 1.6 million tonnes, up from 1.3 million tonnes a year earlier, as farmers favor planting the textile amid low corn prices.

Hosted By- PROJECT FRESH START: A joint initiative of the National Bar Association, NAACP and Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under the Law
Saturday, March 29, 2014
*Check In will begin at 9:00am*
Cost: FREE
In difficult economic times, having a clean criminal record is more important than ever. A person's criminal history may affect efforts to find employment, rent an apartment, obtain a loan, vote, obtain certain licenses, or receive government benefits. Expungement is a legal process that permits qualified individuals to have their criminal records sealed or, in some cases, destroyed. Unfortunately, lack of knowledge about the expungement process disproportionally affects members of the low income/disadvantaged community.
This training will prepare D.C. attorneys to offer brief legal information to individuals during expungement walk-in clinics and provide full representation to those deemed eligible to file for an expungement. Trainees must agree to assist with at least one walk in clinic and accept at least one pro bono referral for full representation in exchange for the free training.
The training will cover:
- Eligible vs. Non-Eligible Offenses in the District of Columbia
- How to Read a Criminal Record
- How to Determine if an Offense is Eligible for Expungement
- How to File for an Expungement in D.C. Superior Court
- Managing Expectations of Individuals Seeking an Expungement
- Referral Services for Individuals Who Are Ineligible for an Expungement
To apply, please send your resume to Shannon Redd at email@example.com
If you are approved to attend the training, you will be notified via email by Friday, March 14th.
Clinics will be held in April 2014. Date: TBD
PLEASE NOTE: No particular expertise is required to participate. Attorneys must be admitted to practice in the District of Columbia. This training session is not MCLE accredited. Training materials may ONLY be used for the purpose of pro bono legal representation.

JORDAO, Ivyna Spinola Caetano and KAC, Gilberto. Determinants of postpartum weight retention according to skin color among women in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Rev Panam Salud Publica [online]. 2005, vol.18, n.6, pp.403-411. ISSN 1680-5348. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1020-49892005001000003.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate factors associated with postpartum weight retention according to skin color in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, as part of the effort to help control overweight and obesity. METHODS: We carried out a cohort study with data collection at four points after delivery: 15 days, 2 months, 6 months, and 9 months. The 450 participants (15 to 45 years of age) were recruited from a maternity center and a city health center in Rio de Janeiro. Postpartum weight retention was defined as the dependent variable. The following covariates were investigated: maternal age, marital status, ability to read a letter, smoking, monthly family income, number of children, age at first delivery, a score for physical activity at work, and a score for physical activity during leisure time. The data were analyzed using multivariate linear mixed-effects models for longitudinal data. RESULTS: The factors that remained associated with postpartum weight retention for white women were time after delivery (b = -0.0061, P = 0.0002), marital status (married/single b = -0.9279, P = 0.0457), and age at first delivery (b = -0.1553, P = 0.0364). The factors for brown women were time after delivery (b = -0.0062, P < 0.0001), marital status (married/single b = -0.6000, P = 0.0145), and work physical activity score (b = -0.1068, P = 0.0003). The factors for black women were smoking (b = -1.4635, P = 0.0535) and score for physical activity during leisure time (b = -0.2422, P = 0.0145). CONCLUSIONS: The factors associated with postpartum weight retention were different for the three skin-color categories. Nevertheless, the data do not indicate the need for different interventions for the three skin-color groups. That is particularly true because the physical activity scores were among the variables associated with weight retention, and any initiative to control obesity should take physical activity into consideration. On the other hand, given the socioeconomic differences among the three skin-color categories, new studies should be developed to investigate in more detail the pattern of postpartum weight retention according to skin color.

As I thought about all the gifts and cards we would be giving during another Christmas season, suddenly a question came to my mind. Of all the gifts I had received during Christmastime in the past, had any of them significantly affected my life? Then I remembered December 1963.
I was home alone because my parents had gone out. I was a young teacher at the time. Classes had ended, I was on vacation, and Christmas was fast approaching. I looked around for something to read, but I had already read everything in our home library. I decided to go see a neighbor who had a good book collection and had often loaned books to me. This time she offered a book that two young men—foreigners—had left with her.
"I'd like to know your opinion of it," she said. "The content seems interesting."
She then added that the young men were missionaries. Missionaries? My interest in the book immediately died. At the time I was not interested in anything having to do with religion, but I took the book anyway.
As I said good-bye, my neighbor added, "Inside the book you'll find a little note they wrote, suggesting that before reading the book, a person needs to say a prayer to God."
Not having any plans that rainy Saturday, I decided to read the "interesting" book. I opened it and found the note written by the missionaries. I put the book on my bed, knelt down, and for the first time in my life, offered up a prayer to God in my own words.
As I started to read, the story captivated me. How was young Nephi able to exercise such unshakable faith? I wondered if I would ever be capable of doing something like that. As I read the book of Mosiah, I drew strength from the words of King Benjamin. At the time I had no idea I was reading a book that would become my favorite for more than 40 years.
During those years the book's pages have provided me with much support, comfort, and strength, and I have discovered many important insights that I shared in talks and lessons at the little Tucumán Branch in Argentina, where I was baptized and confirmed. Two years later, while serving a full-time mission, I also wrote little notes on pieces of paper, suggesting to investigators that they pray before reading the copy of the Book of Mormon my companion and I left in their hands.
So many years have passed since then. But how could I have forgotten the most precious Christmas gift I ever received and the neighbor who gave it to me? I can hardly remember her face, and I struggle to remember her name—Marina. Thank you, neighbor. You have my eternal gratitude.
Mother's Christmas Mouse
When I was a child in the 1950s and 1960s, our Christmas traditions were not elaborate—except for the stockings. Because we children enjoyed our Christmas stockings so much, we continued the tradition when we married and had children of our own. Buying surprises and assembling dozens of Christmas stockings, however, soon became too much for my aging parents, especially my mother, who had a serious case of rheumatoid arthritis that limited her mobility and energy.
Eventually, I volunteered to take over the project. Our annual extended family home evening, in which we acted out the Christmas story and opened our stockings, found me exhausted from the demands of being the mother of several small children and juggling the events of an active life. As I watched everyone dump treasures out of the gingham Christmas stockings I had carefully prepared, I was feeling a little sorry for myself.
As expected, my stocking was empty except for the standard candy cane and Japanese orange that I had placed there earlier. But as I shook them out, I noticed a little bedraggled mouse made of a walnut and hazelnuts. One ear was much bigger than the other, and the whiskers were crooked. The tail had been cut too short, and the loop to hang it on the tree was off center. I was confused. Had someone's kindergarten project ended up in my stocking?
I looked up and saw my mother watching me from her wheelchair across the room. With a gnarled, bent finger, she beckoned to me.
"I wanted to do something for the Christmas stockings," she said. "They made these little mice in Relief Society, and they were so cute."
Her tears were close to the surface, and her gentle voice shook as she continued.
"I couldn't get my fingers to work, so I made only one. It didn't turn out, but I knew you wouldn't mind."
I looked again at the little mouse in my hand. She was right. I didn't mind. In fact, her little bedraggled mouse became the most precious treasure of all that Christmas.
For more than 20 years, I have tenderly removed the tissue paper from the misshapen mouse crafted by misshapen fingers and carefully placed it on a branch. My angel mother has been free of her crippled body for several years, but her Christmas mouse reminds me of two profound truths.
The first is that my mother honored me by believing that I could look past the mouse's crooked ears and feel the love and sacrifice that went into its creation. The second is that if I, as an imperfect mortal, am capable of finding beauty in a humble little mouse, how much more is our Father in Heaven capable of seeing past our imperfect efforts and understanding our pure intentions.
I know that when we do our best to give to others and to Him, our gift is not just good enough—it is of incalculable worth.
A Christmas to Remember
My wife and I had been married less than two years; we were caring for a newborn; and, like typical struggling student families, we were stretching our finances trying to make ends meet.
Graduation was still a few years away, and we were trying to make the best of the Christmas season. I had several part-time jobs, and my wife, Lisa, was working as a secretary. We didn't have a lot of extras, but we were happy.
A few months before Christmas, I was still getting to know the families I was recently assigned to home teach. One family in particular stood out because of the adversity they had recently faced. Two of their children had died in an accident from which the father was still recuperating, and the mother suffered from a crippling illness that had left her physically impaired. Despite these challenges, this family had a great spirit about them, and they set an example by the way they followed the commandments.
During my home teaching visit in December, I saw that they did not have a Christmas tree. My heart sank for their children. Knowing of their physical, spiritual, and financial struggles, my wife and I decided to do something for them.
We had saved enough money to buy a Christmas tree, so we decided to go out on Christmas Eve, buy the biggest tree we could afford, gift wrap it, and anonymously leave it at this family's home. Fortunately, no one was home as we dropped off the tree. As we drove home afterward, we anticipated the joy they would feel upon returning home and finding the tree waiting for them. This small sacrifice added a spirit of peace and joy to our holiday that I had not felt before.
When we arrived at our apartment, we had our own surprise waiting for us on the doorstep: a beautifully decorated Christmas tree! My wife wept as she beheld this anonymous gift of love given to us in our financial need.
We later found out that this gift was given to us by the same family to whom we had given our tree. Even in their dark hour, this family had sought to bless others. Our hearts were filled with the true spirit of Christmas that year. It was a Christmas we will never forget.
Did Heavenly Father Really Love Me?
Usually I loved the music, activities, and excitement that accompanied the holiday season, but this season was different because our family had moved to a new town. I knew we needed to be there at that time, but I felt uncomfortable and out of place.
I voiced my discontent to my husband, Rob. We had moved several times since our marriage, and he knew I had trouble with feelings of insecurity. Rob asked me, "Do you realize how much Heavenly Father loves you?"
"Of course," I replied.
"But," Rob persisted, "do you feel in your heart that He loves you?"
Tears came as I realized that I did not. For as long as I could remember, I had felt that I was less than everyone else. Rob challenged me to pray and ask Heavenly Father to let me feel His love for me. That night I did so.
A couple days later I went grocery shopping. In addition to purchasing the usual items, I had planned to buy some ground beef and a roast. I realized, however, that we did not have enough money to afford the meat. It would be another week before we had any money. We also needed fuel for the car so we could travel to an out-of-town family party.
We weren't destitute, but I prayed about our situation, telling Heavenly Father that it would be nice if we could somehow buy the needed items.
The next evening as I was preparing dinner, the doorbell rang. When I opened the door, the only thing I found on the doorstep was a large paper grocery sack. I reached down to pick it up and saw a $20 bill stapled to the top of the folded-down sack, with "Merry Christmas!" written in crayon across the front.
Inside the sack were several packages of frozen ground beef, as well as a couple packages of steaks. I was dumbfounded. I had told no one that we were out of money until our next check, not even my husband. How could someone be so sensitive to the Spirit that he or she gave us not only the meat we needed but also almost the exact amount of money it took to fill up our car? During fast and testimony meeting, I expressed gratitude for the gifts, hoping that the person responsible was there.
This experience was a turning point for me. Heavenly Father had answered my prayer. He did love me, He knew my needs, and He let me know by showing me. Since then I have sought to improve my ability to hear the whisperings of the Spirit. I often pray now that I might be an instrument in answering someone else's prayer.
The New Recruit
I picked up my husband's memoirs and read, once again, his account of finding the Church more than half a century ago:
"As a 20-year-old in 1951, I was at the school of sergeants at the Kronborg Castle [in Denmark]. On Christmas night I was on guard duty on the embankment that surrounds the castle. At one point I stopped, looked up to the stars, and felt that there was more between the sky and the earth than I had thus far thought. In other words, I began to believe that there was a God, which I had never really believed before. My parents were absolutely not religious, and they and I came to church only for baptisms, confirmations, weddings, and funerals.
"When months later I became a sergeant, I got my own troop: 44 new recruits—or more exactly, 43 plus 1. This one was very different, and when I asked him what it was that made him different from the others, he said he would tell me in the evening inside my quarters.
"There he told me about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for five evenings in a row. On the sixth day, Sunday, I went to church. And with that my new life began.
"The Church involved me completely. Little by little I became acquainted with the members of the Church. I found out that my recruit was not so much different than the overall membership.
"I became convinced that the Church was true, that it was the Lord's Church—and I was baptized. A truly magnificent day."
I am grateful that my husband, Orla, who died in 1998, included these words in his personal history. That long-ago Christmas night, when my husband first sensed that God truly did exist, and his conversations with the new recruit are responsible for our meeting each other, being sealed in the temple, and having five children—who have now brought grandchildren and great-grandchildren into our family. We have had a rich life in the Church and many blessings. I am grateful for that Christmas night and for the new recruit in Denmark those many years ago.

KSA parallel counterfeit brands market close to US$ 4 billion p.a.
Saudi Customs Authority has signed an MOU with International Trademark World, a leading KSA-based organization engaged in the fight against commercial fraud, counterfeiting and trademarks protection in the Saudi Arabia. The MOU aims to increase cooperation between public and non-government sectors in the campaign against commercial fraud and counterfeiting. The agreement was signed by Ibrahim Bin Suliman Al Mousa- Director General of Administrative Development Department - Saudi Customs Authority, and Abdullah bin Mohammed Al Arifi Chief Executive Officer - International Trademark World Company.
"This MOU has been signed at the direction of His Excellency Saleh bin Minaih Al Khiliwy, the Director General of Saudi Customs, as he personally believes in the importance of cooperation and integration of roles between the public and private sectors. It is our strong desire to share and take advantage of diverse areas of expertise and skill sets various organizations have built. This will be critical in our pursuit of our common goals of protecting our country against negative impacts of counterfeiting. This is important to protect ourselves from all kinds of adverse effects - economic, health and financial," said Ibrahim Bin Suliman Al Mousa. "We have chosen International Trademark World as a partner primarily for its experience in the fight against fraud, and also because it represents a number of brands affected by this phenomenon, and therefore shares our concerns."
This MOU envisages provision of technical consultancy by ITMW to Saudi Customs in the field of commercial fraud and counterfeiting, including providing early information on spurious goods as well as training and expertise on identifying fakes from originals, across various product categories.
"ITMW has also undertaken to furnish Saudi Customs with information on new developments in the field of commercial fraud and counterfeiting, locally and globally, detailed statistics of fake and bogus products, brands affected, such as Nokia, Toyota, Mercedes, BOSCH, Mazda and others," said Abdullah bin Mohammed Al Arifi, Executive Director - International Trademark World. "We are conducting market studies, monitoring and tracking fake and counterfeit products, and traveling across the Kingdom in search of brand infringements on an ongoing basis. Founded in January 2007 with 5 offices in Saudi Arabia – including technicians and specialists, we consider it our responsibility to inform authorities about any illegalities we encounter in our work across the country."
Arifi pointed out that with the growth of globalization, the flow of products between markets has become easier, which has also facilitated counterfeiting and trade of fake products by unethical traders. This has made matters critical, needing urgent measures for trademark protection within every market. The parallel global market of counterfeit products which is estimated at more than 700 billion dollars, 50 billion in the Arab world, 7 billion annually in the Gulf region, and 4 billion consumed in Saudi market alone, now affects industries as diverse as food and consumer goods, auto parts, electronics, electrical appliances, clothing, leather, sanitary materials, detergents, medicines and several others.
"The existence of counterfeit products in the market is a challenge to trademark owners, as it undermines the credibility of the brands themselves and is also a serious threat to consumers' health, safety and well-being. Such practices cause potential loss of profits for both the manufacturer and importer," he added. "Saudi Arabia suffers more risks from commercial fraud and counterfeiting than other countries in the region because of its large market size, which is very attractive to counterfeiters. This also prompted the government to set up the Consumer Protection Society, which has played a complementary role with others such as Saudi Customs and Ministry of Commerce and Industry to fight against this phenomenon."
ITMW's activities include collection of information about counterfeit goods and control imports of these commodities through mechanisms developed to detect and control goods and containers across all ports of the Kingdom. The company also undertakes investigations against infringements of intellectual property rights, provides information to the relevant government departments and coordinates raids with them to seize and confiscate spurious goods for destruction.
Through its work, the company aims to protect consumers from safety and health risks and financial losses resulting from the use of fake products. ITMW does this through awareness campaigns and dissemination of information at the community level that focus on the adverse effects of the use of such products. This also helps protect the nation from economic risks associated with counterfeit goods, including protection of business trademarks.

text: Hi numpy-devs, I was the one reporting the original bug about missing ATLAS support in the debian lenny python-numpy package. AFAICT the source python-numpy package in etch (numpy version 1.0.1) does not require atlas to build _dotblas.c, only lapack is needed. If you install the resulting binary package on a system where ATLAS is present, ATLAS libraries are used instead of plain lapack. So basically it was already working before the check for ATLAS was introduced into the numpy building system. Why should ATLAS now be required? > It's not as trivial as just reverting that changeset, though. why is that? I mean, it was *working* before... thank you, tiziano

Traffic on Nav
Is there a traffic option on the Nav? I do not get Sirius traffic with my 1 year free membership. Does the gps/Nav have a built in traffic system. My other car (BMW) also does not use the Sirius traffic but does have traffic built in to the Nav system so there is no subscription.
No it uses the Sirius Sat channel. The traffic used to be included in the one year trial. Its not that reliable or useful in most areas as there is some lag in updates but many are satisfied with it.
Oh well.
Only thing i use it for is to check for traffic on the highways. Never follow its rerouting recommendations...ask me how i know >8(
Forget that useless navigation,just use a Google gps on your phone,much better than car nav.
Is this traffic is a paid service from Sirius in the "travel-link" bundle? :confused:
The traffic feature came in handy once when I-5 was closed in Sacramento when we were driving down to LA and the system routed us to the alternate routes. When driving through Mpls./St. Paul at rush hour, it kept saying "recalculating route" at least once per minute based on traffic since there were about a dozen ways we could have travelled to our destination on different freeways that all run basically N/S or E/W.
OK so how did you get that. I can not get the traffic like that even if I put in a destination. I have the Sirius free subscription, called them and they said I do not have Sirius traffic as it is not offered by Jeep. I can only get Sirius traffic if I start paying for it. Are you getting the traffic from Sirius or is it built into your radio?
Not sure, as I think I said above I have a 2014 with the 8.4AN radio and whatever free Sirius came with it for the year. All I have to do to is switch to "Nav" and wait about 30 seconds for the traffic to come in, nothing else.
Hello All, I'm new to the forum. Just picked up my new 2014 GC Overland and really like it. I'm coming off a BMW X5 and have to tell you that this gives me much more room and is loaded with many more features. So far so good except I too am having difficulty getting the traffic on my Nav screen. The dealer is telling me that I have to go to the app and then to Sirius traffic. I told him I didn't think that was right. If anyone can give me more ammo to go to the dealer with I'd appreciate it. I'm going to copy the picture in the thread and start with that. I am subscribed to all 3 Sirius options. Radio, traffic and travel link. Thanks and look forward to joking the group.
Not sure if you ever worked out how to get the traffic on the nav screen, but after upgrading the radio software I noticed that I was not seeing it again. It took a while but I found the setting that I must have changed before....
From the map > settings > map settings > select speed and flow.
Hope that helps you.
