Observations of feeding and ventilatory behavior of individual fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus) were made from various vessels during the months of May - September, 1981-87, in the waters off eastern Long Island, N.Y., U.S.A.. Intervals between blows were measured and recorded to the nearest second. Information about behavior was recorded, as were location, depth, and surface temperature at sounding dives. Animals observed feeding at the surface were noted as such, all others were considered non-surface feeding. Data were compiled by individual, month, year, and analyzed for mean interblow interval during surface activity bouts; mean dive duration; and overall mean blow interval.
Overall mean blow intervals (± s.e.) of 47.89 ± 0.81s for feeding (n = 10411), and 57.92 ± 0.97s for non-surface feeding animals (n = 11024), differed significantly (Mann-Whitney U, p < .001). Interblow intervals for surface activity bouts (± s.e.) of 12.29 ± 0.05s for feeding (n = 7894), and 13.58 ± 0.06s, for non-surface feeding animals (n = 8187), also differed significantly (Mann-Whitney U, p < .001), as did mean dive duration (159.53 ± 2.16s, n = 2517, for feeding animals; 185.86 ± 2.53s, n = 2837, for non-surface feeding animals). Yearly comparisons of blow intervals between feeding and non-surface feeding animals during surface activity bouts yielded significant differences for each year except 1981, while comparisons of dive durations yielded significant differences for all years except 1981, 1982, and 1985.

Surveys of fin whales, (Balaenoptera physalus) were conducted during the months of May through September, from 1979 through 1996, off Long Island, New York. Surveys primarily occurred aboard whale watching vessels. When possible, individual identification photographs were collected on the cruises. Photographs from 1981 through 1988 were compared for matches of individuals based upon the technique described by Agler et al. All identification type photographs were entered into a computer database to facilitate a more rapid matching of individuals. Animals were keyed into the database based upon dorsal fin type, chevron, and/or nicks and scars. Initial matching was based upon these features. Final matches were made by manually examining each slide and matching at least 5 major features for each whale.
Individual fin whales were found to occupy the region on a recurring basis over numerous years. In some instances occupancy was repetitive on an annual basis, while in other instances gaps of one or more years occurred. Individual fin whales were found to occupy the region for a period of up to 9 weeks, however, many animals were not photographed on a continuous or daily basis. This may not be indicative of movement from the area as surveys throughout the entire occupancy area were often not possible aboard the platform vessel. Residency diagrams presented with this study demonstrated a clear preference to return to the region over a period of years.
In 1987, a very large number of new animals were seen in the area, as some of the largest numbers of whales found in the region were observed. In our analysis, this year had to be considered anomalous based upon the extremely large number of whales found in the region. The large number of whales seen has not been repeated since that time.
The resighting rate indicates that a significant number of animals seen annually in the region were previously sighted individuals. Based upon the high resighting rate and the long term annual recurrence of individual fin whales, this area may be a significant seasonal residency site. However, animals were not always seen in the same areas either within one year or over a period of years. Resightings of whales indicate a use of the whole area and not a specific trend to one site. Consequently, movement throughout the area would be expected based upon our analysis.
Forestell, P.R., Paton, D.A., Rodda, P. & Kaufman, G.D. 2001 1231: Observations of a hypo-pigmented humpback whale, Megaptera novaeangliae, off east coast Australia: 1991-2000.Memoirs of the Queensland Museum 47(2): 437-450. Brisbane. ISSN 0079-8835.
In 1991 an apparently all-white humpback whale was observed and photographed from a shore-based observation platform in Byron Bay, NSW, Australia. The following year, the same animal (based on comparison of photographs of dorsal fill shape) was observed and extensively photographed in Hervey Bay, Queensland. Since then, more than 50 reports of white whale sightings have been obtained with reports in every year except 1997. The whale appears to be an albino and is the only documented occurrence of an all-white humpback whale. Sightings of this unusual animal provide important information on the migratory characteristics of humpback whales along the east coast of Australia. We investigated all known reports of a white whale from 1991-2000 and applied a scale of verifiability to each report. We plotted the location and time of each reliable sighting and summarised the range, rate of movement, social patterns and annual changes in migratory characteristics based on these reports. We present evidence that the white whale is now an adult male and relate its movements to what is known about male humpback whales from other studies.

'Discovery' marks and their recoveries from humpback whales
in the southwest Pacific provide no evidence of migratory interchange between
wintering grounds in New Caledonia and migratory corridors~ off east Australia (Moreton
Island) and New Zealand, or wintering grounds in Tonga. To provide further
insight into the migratory connections among these regions, images of 169
individually-identified humpback whales from New Caledonia were compared with
the published catalogues of Australian (n = 1,088), Tongan (n = 78) and
New Zealand (n = I) humpback whales. Four of the New Caledonian humpbacks
were found to have migrated past east Australia and one past New Zealand in
separate years. No movement was found between New Caledonia and Tonga. These
data provide the first photographic information on exchanges between regions of
the southwest Pacific. Reviewed in light of historical records, these data also
highlight the necessity for further research in the South Pacific region to
resolve the question of the proposed segregation of the Southern Hemisphere
Group V stock into an eastern group (New Zealand and the Pacific Islands) and a
western group (east Australia).

Movements of eleven leatherback sea turtles nesting in Culebra and Fajardo, Puerto Rico, were determined with directly attached time depth recorders (ST-TDR, 6 turtles) and pop-up archival satellite tags (5 turtles). Our main objective was to test the feasibility of using implanted titanium bone anchors (used in humans) to secure both tag types directly to the turtle's carapace. Most ST- TDR duty cycles were set on nearly continuous transmission to maximize early data return. Attachment periods ranged from four days to over six months, the latter exceeding the expected life-span of the ST-TDR's battery. Some turtles headed directly offshore, five bearing NW, and three to the E/NE. One of these turtles was located off North Carolina when transmissions ceased. One turtle moved directly NE, traveling over 4500 km to the Azores front via the mid-Atlantic ridge. At least four turtles returned to nest, but their tags were the earliest tags shed, suggesting that they may have been dislodged by mating activities. Daily geolocation estimates were obtained from popup archival tags while they remained on the turtles. Our results indicate that this nesting assemblage disperses to widely separated Atlantic regions. Simple modifications of our direct attachment methodology should allow us to greatly extend tracking duration.

Inshore embayments along the eastern Atlantic seaboard appear to provide important summer foraging habitat for juvenile sea turtles. The occurrence of sea turtles is seasonal in the temperate waters around Long Island, New York. Sea turtles regularly caught in commercial fishing gear (pound nets) in this area are loggerhead (Caretta caretta), Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempi) and green (Chelonia mydas) turtles. These captures are a result of an ongoing program with commercial fishermen.
Upon capture, straight carapace length (SCL), width, and mass were measured. We tagged turtles with either a Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tag or a Monel Tag. All data was recorded for the New York Sea Turtle Stranding and Salvage Network and the NMFS Cooperative Marine Turtle Tagging Program. We compared the variance of SCL for loggerhead, Kemp's ridley and green sea turtles. An ANOVA of SCL showed no significant difference for 1986 to 1996 for loggerhead (p = 0.5525), Kemp's ridley (p = 0.5584) and green (p = 0.3492) sea turtles. Straight carapace lengths for these loggerhead (mean = 49.4, SD = 1.34, n = 233), Kemp's ridley (mean = 30.2, SD = 1.43, n = 107), and green (mean = 32.2, SD = 4.54, n = 80) sea turtles indicate that they were juveniles.
Earlier studies of migration and diets of Kemp's ridleys and loggerheads in New York waters used specimens collected by pound nets. The reported means of SCL in previous studies were similar to those found in this analysis. This study indicates that there has been no significant change in mean SCL of three species of sea turtles over a 10-year period.

Sea turtle incidence is seasonal and considered common for the temperate waters around Long Island. Sea turtles regularly caught in commercial fishing gear (pound nets) were the loggerhead (Caretta caretta), Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) and the green turtle (Chelonia mydas). These captures were part of a cooperative program with commercial fisherman between 1986 and 1996. Upon capture, straight carapace length, width, and weight were recorded. Each animal was then tagged with either a Monel flipper tag or Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) tag.
Sea turtles taken in pound net captures in 1996 included 31 original captures and 5 recaptures. The 31 original captures included 7 greens, 12 ridley's, and 12 loggerheads. The recaptures included 3 greens, 1 ridley and 1 loggerhead. In all years except 1992, the total number of sea turtle captures was greater than the number recovered in 1996. The pound net recovery program was initiated in 1986. Between the years of 1986-1989 the numbers of turtles recovered were influenced to an unknown degree by effort. As a result the numbers of animals recovered during this time is difficult to correlate to the current numbers of recoveries.
In all years until 1996, loggerheads were the dominant species captured. From 1986 to 1995 the number of loggerheads recovered represented from 48% to 78% of total captures. The data revealed a significant decrease of loggerheads for 1996 compared to previous years. The number of loggerheads recovered for 1996 was 12. The decrease of total sea turtles captured in 1996 is largely accounted for by the decrease in the number of loggerheads recovered. In all years except 1990, the total number of loggerheads recovered was greater than either greens or ridley's. The mean number of loggerheads per year for all years is 19.54 (sd ±10.24) and the twelve loggerheads recovered in 1996 is significantly lower. The decrease in loggerhead and total sea turtles was also observed in the stranding records for New York State during 1996.
Concurrent with the decrease in loggerhead captures was an increase in the percentage of green sea turtles recovered. The percentage of green turtles captured in 1996 was 22%. The mean percentage for all previous years was 17%. With the exception of 1994, the number of green turtles recovered remained relatively stable from 1985 to 1996 with a mean of 6.36 (sd ±5.6) and 7 were recovered in 1996. The seven original captures in 1996 are not significantly different than the mean and again the increase in the percentage of green is related to the decrease in loggerhead recoveries.
Turtle captures in the waters of eastern Long Island have shown similar patterns from 1986 to 1995. In 1996, however, turtles were recovered in western Shinnecock Bay and Peconic Bay. The Peconic Bay recoveries were due to a newly introduced fishing method in the Peconic system known locally as 'fish pots.' These pots are very different in design than pound nets since the entire structure is submerged. The structure of these traps would prevent entrapped sea turtles from surfacing to breathe, something a pound net does not do. Although both turtles caught in these "pots" were alive they were likely only recently trapped. This fishery could cause mortality, something we have not seen yet in pound nets for New York.
The decrease in the number of loggerheads observed is not well understood at this time. The 1996 summer was slightly cooler than recent years and it is possible water temperatures effected the distribution of this species to the region. Unfortunately, data on temperatures in earlier years was not available for complete analysis and further examination may elucidate what effect, if any this had. It is also possible that the local pound net fishing effort may have effected the capture of this species. Due to recent New York State regulations regarding take of bluefish (Pomatomus saltatrix). This has been reported by the fisherman to cause them to both shorten their season and reduce the numbers of nets they are fishing. We are presently attempting to quantify this. However, it involves somewhat subjective data since the effort of each individual has not been quantified in previous years and is solely based upon reports of the number of nets set. Although there was a significant increase in the number of cold-stunned sea turtles in 1995 (fig) it is unlikely this has effected the number of loggerheads recovered in 1996. Standard carapace length measurements for all years and 1996 are quite similar (ref)with a very small standard deviation (1986-1995 mean 50.07 sd ±6.44; 1996 mean 49.79 sd ±5.57). This indicates that turtles found here are largely a single year class, and subsequent year classes recoveries would not be effected by the previous years cold-stunning.
It is also possible that some factor outside the New York region has caused a decrease in the number of loggerhead recovered. This could include various populations parameters or changes in Gulf Stream eddies. These were not examined for this study.
Continuation of the monitoring of sea turtle populations in New York will enable a better understanding of the distribution and habitat usage's of these species. It will also assist in identifying sources of mortalities not seen in other areas. The long term nature of this study is unique for the Northeastern United States and provides important information of sea turtle movements in northern waters that may be part of developmental habitats.

SPL Round-Up
Falkirk spoiled Gretna's big day with a 4-0 win, while Motherwell beat St Mirren 1-0.
By Peter O'Rourke
Last Updated: 04/08/07 5:11pm
Gretna were given a harsh introduction to life in the SPL after going down 4-0 to Falkirk.
John Hughes' men proved too strong for the SPL new boys at Fir Park as they eased to a comfortable victory.
New boy Michael Higdon made a dream start to his Falkirk career with the opener after just 14 minutes and the former Crewe man doubled the lead ten minutes later.
Pedro Moutinho added a third on 66 minutes to put the game beyond Gretna.
Veteran Russell Latapy got in on the act on 74 minutes to put a dampener on Gretna's big day.
Mark McGhee enjoyed a winning start as Motherwell manager as his side picked up a 1-0 victory at St Mirren.
Steve McGarry's early strike after just three minutes was enough to give McGhee's men the ideal start to the new season.
Ten-man Dundee United battled to a 1-0 win over Aberdeen at Tannadice.
David Robertson's last-gasp goal gave Craig Levein's men an unlikely win
Willo Flood endured a debut to forget after being sent off for two bookable offences three minutes before the break.
Aberdeen were unable to make their numerical advantage count and United snatched the points when Robertson popped up in the final minute to score.
In the lunchtime kick-off Rangers eased past Inverness 3-0 at the Caledonian Stadium.
Barry Ferguson grabbed two goals, while Nacho Novo netted the other as Walter Smith's side signalled their intention to mount a serious title challenge to Celtic this season.

Three 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedans have been awarded a test license for autonomous driving on Nevada's interstates and state highways, the automaker announced at the Consumer Electronics Show.
Specially trained drivers will test the three standard-production sedans and intervene for turning, merging, and departing. Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (NDMV) rules also stipulate that there must be one passenger behind the wheel and a second passenger in the vehicle on test drives.
Earlier iterations of autonomous driving test vehicles required special hardware and software including additional sensors, modified steering and an adapted electronic stability control. The 2017 E-Class is already equipped with intelligent technology, and can be tested with only smaller software modifications to the Drive Pilot control unit.
The test vehicles are identified by a red license plate reserved for autonomous driving. Nevada passed autonomous driving rules in June 2011. Two self-driving Daimler trucks have been in operation on public roads since May.

Salazar Slips Into Contention
March 18, 2002 | 12:00 A.M. EST
But Salazar's fourth-place finish after leading seven laps shouldn't have been a surprise. He finished second to eventual winner and champion Sam Hornish Jr. last season and fourth in 2000.
This year he had his best performance at the 1-mile oval. He started the 200-lap Bombardier ATV Copper World Indy 200 in the 10th position, and he was in the Top 3 by Lap 97. On Lap 138 he passed Al Unser Jr. for the lead. He led the next seven laps before pitting.
"I am happy because we were competitive," said Salazar, driver of the No. 11 Dallara-Chevy. "We led laps, and we were running with the Penske and Panther teams. We lost the lead because we had a slight problem on our pit stop."
He emerged from the pits in third, but points leader Hornish got by on Lap 165.
"When I went to pass (teammate Airton) Dare, I had to lift a bit, and Hornish got a run on me and got by," Salazar said. "But it was fun.
"The car is brilliant, it has a very good balance."
With his fourth-place run, Salazar joins Hornish, Phoenix winner Helio Castroneves and two-time CART champ Gil de Ferran as the only drivers to finish in the Top 5 in the first two races of the year. As a result, Salazar is fourth in the points, 29 behind Hornish, but just 18 points behind de Ferran for third.
Salazar attributes his success at Phoenix to preparation, and lots of it.
"I like Phoenix a lot," said Salazar, who made his first oval start at Phoenix in 1995. "I have tested here a lot over the years as have a lot of teams because it is a typical Indy oval. It feels like home to me, I know every little part of it."
This year, Salazar tested at Phoenix on Feb. 5 and 7. He was happy with the results, as was team owner Foyt.
"I believe we'll be very competitive when we come back next month," Foyt said.
He was right.
Salazar and the rest of the IRL drivers return to action Sunday at the Yamaha Indy 400 at California Speedway. The race is scheduled to begin at 3:30 p.m. (ET).

Whether it be a white-tailed deer, bobwhite quail or other animal species, the fact is that wildlife have a certain requirement for cover. Suitable cover can only be provided through habitat. Cover provides a sense of security from disturbance and protection from inclement weather and predators. The amount and kind of cover vary by species. A stand of grass may provide adequate cover for some bird species and small mammals, while other species require woody cover comprised of trees and shrubs, maybe even in addition to herbaceous cover.
The best cover for a large species such as white-tailed deer is a pattern or mosaic of woody brush and trees interspersed within open areas at an approximate 1:1 or 2:1 ratio of open area to woody cover. Clumps or strips of brush should be wide enough so that an observer cannot see through them from one side to the other during the winter months when deciduous species are bare of leaves. Cover strips should be as continuous as possible to provide travel corridors for deer movement. A habitat that provides several different types and arrays of cover benefits more species of wildlife than a habitat that has limited types, amounts, and distribution of cover.
Management of vegetation, whether post oak woodlands, ashe juniper woodlands, mesquite woods, or open grasslands, requires long-term planning. Any habitat manipulation practice will have an impact on resident wildlife species, either good or bad, depending on the type of treatment used, the degree of use, and location. Before implementing vegetation control techniques, determine what the long-term effects will be for each wildlife species that occurs in the area and minimize the negative impacts.
Landowners and hunters must consider the location and size of sensitive wildlife habitats that provide important nesting or roosting sites, feeding areas, desirable wildlife food producing plants, cover, water, and space needs. Wildlife can be displaced by disturbance from an area without adequate escape or security cover, so wildlife management initiatives should aim to meet both short and long-term needs. The amount and distribution of cover on adjacent lands need to be taken into consideration when assessing the cover needs of wide-ranging wildlife species such as deer and turkey.
For example, a small ranch would need a larger amount of security cover on a percentage basis than would a larger ranch where the vastness of the area provides large-ranging species with the security the need. The amount and types of cover habitat that wildlife need varies by species, so the best habitat for deer may not necessarily be the best habitat for doves. With that said, often times good diverse habitat will benefit many wildlife species since each can find a suitable place to call home.

Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
For some reason the stats arnt adding up! Here they are ish : 605 AP, 40% C
So ye... Im not amazing at LoL. But this build has done me well! Ive been getting 20ish kills on games I have lost, and 30-40 (40 is my new PB) on one I have one! Im level 15, so cant tell you much about runes and masteries, so sorry about that. I will add them in later!
Katarina is amazing at kill stealing... But I wouldn't... People will get seriously pissed off... She is not a tank, she is a dps! So my main tip with kata, is get them when they are low. Kata can take most champions within a matter of seconds, if they are on around half health, when they are buy themselves. And Seriously! Emphasis on 'a matter of seconds'! Because she can deal so much damage so quickly, she is great for entering combat on low health, most opponents cant even get a hit on kata before they are dead... if you can play her properly...
Also here is how I normally sequence my moves: Q, E, W - R. Bouncing blades increase the damage you deal the enemy for the next few seconds. This means that it is great to start with. I often find myself using E a lot to escape too! You can use this on any monster or champion, wether it is an enemy or allied, you just wont deal damage to allied! It is great for teleporting out of combat xD
About the Passive: When kata gains a kill or an assist all her spells cooldown reduce by 15 seconds. This means that all her normal spells are instantly refreshed, and her ultimate (around 50 seconds cooldown) is also reduce by 15 seconds. This build allows you to have 40% (max) cooldown reduction (CDR). So when you get a double kill with kata, you can instantly use her ultimate again... Imagine that... teleporting inbetween two champions... kill them both using your ulti... then using your ulti again! OP right? Ye...

Hi Shiv, appreciate the insightful review - the reasons why they are so expensive etc. Unfortunately I will not be treating myself to any. I have read that the handles are quite long, and seeing as my eyesight is not the best, this means that I couldn't get close enough to the mirror to do my eye makeup. Ha Ha! I do however really enjoy the original brushes and will continue to expand my collection. Love from a fellow Irish lass xxReplyDelete
I wouldn't even have thought of the handle length in those circumstances! Glad you pointed it out though :) xxxDelete

India: tribal Christians fear land seizure
Thousands of tribal people in Chhattisgarh state say they fear losing their homes and lands as the central Indian state pushes ahead with industrialization plans. Potentially the worst affected are tribal Catholics in Jashpur and Raigarh dioceses.
Jashpur's 190,000 Oraon tribal people form 23.5 percent of the state's Catholic population. Raigarh has some 60,000 Catholics.
According to the Chhattisgarh government's website, the main objective of the new industrial policy is to "add maximum value to the state's abundant natural resources" and create "maximum employment opportunities by setting up industries" across the state.
The website adds that "for setting up industries, particularly large and mega industrial units, outside the industrial areas and parks, government revenue land and private land will be acquired and made available to investors."
However, Benedict Minj, a former government worker, says the industrialization plan is a government plot to disband Christian pockets in the state and weaken the Church. The pro-Hindu Bharatiya Janata Party (Indian People's Party) now heads the government.
Minj, a Catholic, warned the move would be "a disaster for the Church" which draws its strength from its tribal members. With their land and forestry taken, tribal people would become dependent on industrialists, he said.
Petrus Minj (no relation), another tribal Catholic, said the government has completed aerial and land surveys it started five years ago to set up various industries. The collector of Jashpur, the top bureaucrat in the district, has informed villagers about the move to take over their land, after side stepping village councils' objections.
The Church has been helping the locals in their fight. For the past few years, Jashpur diocese has held classes encouraging the villagers not to sell their land.
Jesuit Father Zacharias Lakra said the government has taken and sold hundreds of hectares of land in Raigarh diocese to a firm to set up a steel plant there. Many displaced tribal people have yet to receive adequate compensation, he added.
The priest said political parties support the new projects and some of them had initially tried to convince people that only Christians would be moved. "But now Hindus have realized they too will lose their land," the tribal priest said. The politicians now accuse the Church of fomenting trouble, he added.
Tribal leaders, however, accuse the government of "militarizing" the state since it forcibly removes people from their ancestral land.
Exasperated with the government plans, some 3,000 tribal people from across the state earlier this month demonstrated in the state capital, Raipur, but they say the protest fell on deaf ears.
A memorandum the protesters, including Catholics from Jashpur some 300 kilometres away, submitted to the state governor rejected plans to establish Special Economic Zones.
Instead, they demanded the government boost the agricultural sector by providing irrigation and drinking water as stipulated in the National Agricultural Act the federal government enacted in 2002.

This month marks one year since my arrival to the Fort Myers area. The circumstances that brought me here were health related after I became ill in the autumn of 2011. While the warmer weather has offered some relief, my health continues to prevent me from working and getting out much.
It wasn't until found the Mystical Moon that I finally felt like I could just maybe make this unfamiliar place my home. While I live a ways from the shop, I truly enjoy my visits when I do get the opportunity to stop in, and now here on Ning.
I just wanted to take a moment to say hello and thank you for being the first to make me feel at 'home' in the area. I look forward to future trips to the Moon!

Welcome Kari!!!
Welcome Kari.... it's great to hear someone else has touched down on the Moon and happy to be here. Blog and tell us more about yourself and your journey. Crystal does a great hands on Reiki healing class, maybe you should try to check that one out. :) There are so many ways to explore at the Moon...past life regressions which can help to release negative, old patterns and help with health issues, opening chakra meditations and the vibrations of the bowls is another great one. Kelly does a great Light Blessing that helps all who go. Hope to see you there soon.

This is an easy and delicious salsa recipe and salsa is an absolutely great first project to try because salsa is so expensive to buy and it's so easy to make at home! And canning season is not over yet...there is still lots of time to gather fresh produce and get busy!
This year my salsa-making was made all the more easier with this home canning kit from Canadian Tire. It came with not only a large canning pot, but all the tools & gadgets to make canning a breeze. I was so happy to receive the canning pot because I did not have a super large pot to use for canning! I wish that I had this kit when I first started canning because it made the whole process a lot easier! I used the canning pot for both making the salsa, and processing the jars. The canning kit not only comes with a pot, but also a canning rack, canning funnel, jar lifter, magnetic lid wands, pectin, jars and a DVD. Canadian Tire has a complete selection of canning items for all your canning needs, including not only this kit, but jars in various sizes, spices and more!
If you have been scared to try making to salsa because you thought that you had to peel, seed and core a whole bunch of tomatoes...let me tell you that you don't have to do all that. Of course you can if you want to, but you don't need to. You can skip right over that time consuming step and just start chopping! And it can be quick work if you can get the whole family involved with a chopping party...with the reward being fresh salsa at the end of the day.
Here is our recipe for salsa that we have been using for the past 15 years. You can use both fresh tomatoes or canned tomatoes...they both work equally as well!
Tomato Salsa
{recipe can be doubled}
8 cups coarsely chopped tomatoes {fresh or canned}
3 large onions, chopped
2 large green peppers chopped
1/2 red pepper chopped
hot pepper to taste
1 clove garlic minced
1 13oz. can tomato paste
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons pickling salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley
1 teaspoon oregano
5 1-litre jars, or 10-500 ml jars, or 20-125 ml jars, with lids and bands
*I usually double this recipe and use 10 1-litre jars.
**I used fresh Roma tomatoes.
***I used two canning pots. One for the salsa and one for processing the jars.
1. In large canning pot, bring everything but tomato paste, parsley and oregano, to a boil, stirring constantly.
2. Reduce heat to medium low. Cook until tomatoes get soft but not mushy.
3. Add the remaining ingredients and cook for another 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning.For best results, taste salsa with tortilla chips to gauge salt and spice.Turn off heat.
4. Meanwhile, sterilize jars by placing the jars on the rack in the canning pot. Fill jars and pot with cool water that reaches the top of the jars. Cover and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Do not boil.
5. To prepare the 2 piece closures for the jars, place lids in a small saucepan and cover with water. Heat to just a simmer over medium heat, but do not boil. Do not heat screw bands.
6. Remove jars from canning pot and empty hot water back into canner. Place funnel over jars and fill jars with hot salsa one at a time, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Slide the bubble remover from the canning kit into the jars to release air bubbles. Use a clean cloth or paper towel to clean rim of jar. Using the magnetic lid wand, lift jar lids from hot water and center lid on jar. Place screw band on jar and with your fingers, screw band on firmly and evenly. just until resistance is met. Do not over tighten.
7. Fill all jars with salsa and place on canning rack. Lower canning rack into canner with hot water, making sure the jars are completely covered by at least one inch of hot water. Cover canner and bring to a rolling hot boil over high heat and process jars for 40 minutes. Turn off heat and remove canner lid. Let jars cool in pot for 5 minutes. Using jar lifter, remove jars lifting straight up.
8. Place jars upright on a clean towel and do not disturb for 24 hours.
9. After 24 hours, check lids for seal. Sealed lids will be concave and will show no movement when pressed on with your finger. Jars that have not sealed properly must be refrigerated right away. Properly sealed jars can be wiped off, labelled and stored in a cool, dry and dark space.
{Always make sure to follow a canning recipe and sterilizing instructions properly.}
canning kit from Canadian Tire! This kit is perfect for both beginner and experience canners and is a great investment for canning projects.
Wishing you a delicious day!

- Fossil Brown Granite Slab
Another idea of how far you can go. A brown granite loaded with fossils. A geologist's dream countertop.
There are tons of little shells and fossils in these slabs. Very rare and striking as a horizontal surface.
I doubt whether that is granite with fossils. It is more likely marble (metamorphosed limestone). Granite is an igneous rock form from lava extrusions.
Thanks , I've recently been searching for info about this topic for a long time and yours is the best I've came upon so far.
However, what concerning the bottom line? Are you sure about the supply?

Carl A. Fields Center
Mark your calendars for a public conversation with performing artists Mick Jenkins and Jamila Woods. Jenkins and Woods are participants in the Princeton African American Studies Graduate Conference, 'eighteen hundred and more – mourning the needy dead in the chaos of protest.' The performers will be interviewed by Princeton graduate students, the conference's organizers – Heath Pearson and Nyle Fort. Join us for a unique conversation about the role of the arts in our current political moment. This conversation is a public event made possible by the occasion of the graduate conference.
mick jenkins Born in Huntsville, Alabama and raised in the South Side of Chicago, MC/poet Mick Jenkins made an impact in the early 2010s' Chicago hip-hop scene with his socially conscious, intelligent lyrics and tough yet unforced delivery over acid jazz-influenced backing tracks. In August 2016, his official full-length album, The Healing Component, debuted at #9 on the Billboard R&B/hip-hop chart. Recently, he has collaborated with artists such as Chance the Rapper, Joey Bada$$ and Vic Mensa.
jamila woods Tempering sharp and powerful lyrics with a sweetly melodic voice, Jamila Woods is an activist, poet, and R&B singer/songwriter. A native of Chicago, Woods started performing in church. After she graduated from Brown University, she returned home and formed the self-termed "adventure soul" duo Milo & Otis. Woods has recorded and performed alongside Chance the Rapper, singing vocals for the song "Sunday Candy". Shortly after that Woods released HEAVN, her debut album.
nyle fort is a Ph.D. candidate in the departments of religion and African American studies. His research focuses on the relationship between African American mourning and Black politics. In addition to completing coursework, he is currently co-organizing (with Heath Pearson) Princeton University's first annual African American studies graduate student conference, 'eighteen hundred and more: mourning the needy dead in the chaos of protest.' Nyle received a B.A. in English from Morehouse College and a Masters of Divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary.
heath pearson is a Ph.D. candidate in the Anthropology Dept. and the Dept. of African American Studies, an affiliate of the American Studies Program, and a fellow in The Center for the Study of Religion. Thanks to funding from The Wenner-Gren Foundation, he is currently undertaking long-term, ethnographic fieldwork in a county on the East Coast with many ghosts and many prisons, constructing a history of the land and looking at what happens over time to human flesh and identities, perceptions and memories, and examining the dynamics of local institutions, and the apparatuses of local governance around rural prison facilities. His most recent academic article, "The Prickly Skin of White Supremacy," explores the co-constitution of race and place in Huntington, Indiana, and the many ways racialized violence lingers in the land, and on the skin, throughout multiple generations. His most recent collaborative project is with VICE Media: Weediquette, Season 2, Episode 7, 'Search & Seizure.' He also spends a great deal of time listening to music.
The conversation will be streamed live on Youtube.

Back to Bangkok (and another night in BKK airport)
Bangkok Travel Blog› entry 81 of 136 › view all entries
Sitting in Bangkok (BKK - Suvanbhumi) Airport writing this entry awaiting my connecting flight to Hong Kong. It's a 13-hour layover - too short to go anywhere (even to the airport hotel at $150 US/night) but too long in the grand scheme of things. I haven't updated my journal for the past several days (note this was written during the trip and being transcribed afterwards), so will be spending some time trying to write about the last few days of my Everest Trek and the final days in Kathmandu and by extension Nepal.
Today was both a slow and a busy day. Woke up around 7:00 AM to finish the packing process and prepare for departure. Before checking out, I met Mark and Dave @ 8:30 AM for breakfast. We went over to Northfield Cafe a few buildings down the street. After eating I wished them well on their travels as they were heading to India tomorrow morning. I saw Dom as well and did the same. Around 10:45 I checked out of the Kathmandu Guest House for the final time to take the always exciting taxi ride through chaotic Kathmandu to the airport. Passed through all the formalities (remembering to pay my departure tax and get my coupon before checking in) and was stamped out of Nepal into the international departures area. Tried to use the last of my Rupees on some food and souvenirs before going through the final security check to my plane for BKK (Thai Airways (TG) 320, 777-200, seat 40A). Flight was uneventful other than some mild turbulence passing through the cloud layer.
Now I found myself killing time in Bangkok Airport and putting my thoughts on paper. The entries you read from 4/24 heading up to Everest Base Camp until today were written during this time frame.

Days 1-2 Los Angeles & San Diego
Start your two week west coast USA tour checking out star-studded Hollywood Boulevard for a snap of the famous sign and a stroll along the Walk of Fame. Say goodbye to LA and hello to the city of San Diego. Laze in grassy Balboa Park or explore the famous San Diego Zoo with over 3,000 animals. San Diego is home to some awesome beaches so no trip would be complete without feeling the sand between your toes at Mission Beach and topping up your Californian tan. If you're feeling a tad more active, San Diego has the perfect environment for beachfront activities; go rollerblading, cycling or take to the water for a spot of surfing. At night, the Gaslamp Quarter is the place to experience the city's live music and bar scene. Accommodation: Camping included

Axe Bahia
Arraial D\'Ajuda Travel Blog› entry 45 of 73 › view all entries
The crew as of itacare was myself, juan (new york born, doing med school in argentina), Richard (world traveling kiwi), marcelo and felipe (mineiros). we left itacare on the 18th to meet richard in itacare, who had left a few days earlier. we had some bad luck with buses and didn't end up arriving until around 1 am.
the mineiros have lots of friends here, and we've also been running into other people we've met along the way.
arraial, and really all of the porto seguro area, is a tremendous party town. as was the case with morro and itacare, arraial is loaded with argentinians. consequently, alot of the parties just bump electronic music. but, there's enough brazilian tourism here to make forro and axe even bigger parties. a few nights ago we went to a big axe show, rappasola.
to be honest, i'm kinda hung over right now, so i'm not in the mood to write much. tomorrow we're all going to trancoso for the day, then i leave the group to head up to recife to meet up with rosane, a girl i'd met there in october. then juan and richard are going to meet me for carnaval there. i've already arranged a place to stay through CS. a big group of us are splitting a house: R$120 for 5 days. apparently richard has a free place to stay, so i might bail on the CS house even though i've already paid.
so yeah. party party party

You're a wonderful, successful, and attractive woman. You know it and all your friends and family do too, but for some reason, you're still single. How could there possibly be a better girlfriend than you? You seriously don't know how you're still single. You're tired of being asked the same old question, time and time again: how can someone as beautiful, kind, and caring as you not have a boyfriend?
Don't blame yourself for this. It's not your fault. Here at New Jersey Singles Dating Service, we see it all the time. Our matchmakers are all about having standards and never settling. Your busy lifestyle might not allow you the time and energy necessary to meet the right person, but it still hurts to be all alone.
But is that it? Or could there be more to it? Believe it or not, there could be many other reasons why you're still on the market today. Read on to find out, as New Jersey Singles reviews the real reasons you're still SINGLE!
1. No One Meets Your Expectations
Yes, you met many men who were great and all, but they did not meet your dating expectations. Why would someone so wonderful and successful like you settle for someone who doesn't fulfill your expectations? We understand and know you want someone who shines as bright as you. We know you don't want to waste your time with men who aren't right for you, and we don't blame you.
2. Your Life Is Full of Chaos
You're successful in life, but that success comes with a price. You have an extremely hectic life: you're super busy with work, you barely have time to see your friends and family, and you can hardly find time to get to the gym and stay active. And that says it all: you really don't have time to spend searching for your perfect man. One of the main reasons you're single today is because of your hectic schedule and chaotic life.
3. You're Fed Up with the Search
It's easy to get burnt out on the hunt for the perfect man. You might be the most beautiful and successful woman around but are still disappointed again and again. Sure, you're tired of being single, but at the same time, you're tired of searching with no luck in sight. Take it from our matchmakers, you're allowed to feel this way. But you don't have to go at it alone! This is where our expert matchmakers here at New Jersey Singles can step in and take over the hard part of dating for you.
4. Men Just Want to Hook Up
Whatever happened to genuine men who were looking for a serious relationship? What happened to commitment? Honestly, it all went out the window when online dating sites and Tinder came into the picture. You might have tried your luck on dating sites and mobile apps but quickly realized that all the men you meet there just want to hook up. Nowadays, a true gentleman is hard to find, and you certainly won't find him online. You are too great and successful to settle for a casual hookup.
5. You Don't Put Up with Nonsense
When it comes to dating and relationships, you are the type of woman who doesn't have time to put up with the nonsense. You are not afraid to walk out of a relationship when you notice it's not going anywhere. Our matchmakers clap for you. Sure, it might suck to be alone, but it's a lot better than dealing with drama and unnecessary strife in your life.
6. You Have High Standards
Good job on having high standards, because not having them will land you in any old relationship, which we know will lead to heartache and disaster. Stick to your high standards, even if you're single today. Why? Because you deserve the best. You have better things to do than pretend to be into men you're not into. Ignore the naysayers and don't settle for anything less than you deserve.
7. Men Find You Intimidating
It's sad when men find a successful, strong, and independent woman intimidating. If they only knew just how awesome you are, they would show you the respect you deserve. But they can't, because they are intimidated by your presence and your success.
8. You're Happy with Where Your Life Is Today
Being alone isn't a bad thing. Things could be going great for you right now, and you might be happy with the way your life is. If you're working up the career ladder or are focusing on your personal life, that's good news for you. After all, you must be content and happy with your own life first.
9. You're Tired of the Dating Games
You've been in many relationships and just want to take a break now. If you are burnt out because you dated too many of the wrong men, it's okay to take a small break. You're still amazing, but you do need a small break to recharge and come back refreshed.
10. You're Unique
The most amazing women out there are unique. Maybe you have a passion for antiques, perhaps you love knitting, or maybe you're dedicated to running and training for a marathon. Sometimes it's hard to find a match when you have unique interests and personality traits. Don't worry, because our matchmakers here at New Jersey Singles can help you do just that. We make finding a compatible partner straightforward and enjoyable.
New Jersey Singles reviews many aspects of dating, but today it's all about you and why you're single. Don't worry, because we know we can help you change your luck in dating. Contact our New Jersey Singles matchmakers today and let us assist you on your search for love.
Fill out the private survey at the top of the page, mention you heard about New Jersey Singles from this awesome blog, and book your FREE consultation today.

Gov. Pete Ricketts has requested the resignation of Papillion Senator Bill Kintner if allegations are true that there was a sexually explicit video that included himself on his state computer.
Speaker of the Legislature Senator Galen Hadley says the Accountability and Disclosure Commission is currently investigating the accusation.
Hadley says if the accusations are true and Kintner doesn't resign there are actions that can be taken.
Senator Hadley says, "We do have a provision to expel a senator from the body. It is my understanding it might have been used once in the 80 year history of the Unicameral and it is a very vague statute, a very vague rule so we would be breaking new ground in doing that. If it were to come to that I would hope that Senator Kintner would not put the Legislature through that kind of process."
According to Nebraska law, public officials cannot use their state computers for personal activity. Senator Hadley says, "It is one thing to maybe use your computer to send a political email or something like that which you can get fined for. If it is a sexual matter I think it rises to another level."
There are reports that someone contacted a state official wanting to sell the alleged video involving Senator Kintner. That information was given to the governor's office last year. Senator Hadley has spoken with Senator Kintner Monday who will not make a statement while the incident is under investigation. The allegation has been under investigation since last October and that has many lawmakers and others concerned what has taken so long to reach a decision. Senator Hadley says an answer is expected Friday.

Battery life starting to drain a lot more (battery life is like how it was before i root crap). Also my phone starting to lag a lot. When in viewing a web page scrolling down it is very very choppy. I am using the Virtuous rom and using their stock kernel. I had some help on this matter but still the same. I deleted recent apps i just downloaded and still nothing, still laggy and battery life sucks. I'm not sure if this pic would help out but when you have mhz set all the way on max shouldnt it stay there. My phone is stuck on 245 max and min even tho i have max set on 998. Thanks in advance.

Re: the vigils. Nice photos and articles in today's Chronicle. 2,000 candles in huge interlocking circles.
Bushy-Baby yielded to the howls of protest on several scores, I see. I didn't think he EVER accepted any opinion except his own, and especially not those of the constituents. If I offend any Bush supporters, I apologize for the offense but not for the opinions. After all, this nation was founded on dissent. And freedom of speech.Different strokes for different folks.

Insomniac - Anybody who has read my comments on Blogging Baby knows just how far to the left I am and yet here some of them are.
People of good faith can disagree (unless you work for the federal government these days - then it gets you canned or smeared or outed ala Valerie Plame and her husband).
We've agreed to try a weekly vigil in cooperation with at least one other progressive group. Even a few people with signs is better than nothing.
If we're talking about Harriet Meirs, what's really funny is he caved to the ultra conservatives. She wasn't far enough to the right, or so they thought. I shudder to think who he'll come up with next.
I kept my mouth shut about her - no protests. Just sat back and watched the catfight. It's a shame, though, that she was caught in the middle.
I'm waiting patiently for the indictments.

Do You Suffer From Nice Girl Syndrome?
Ten years ago, Dr. Lois Frankel wrote Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office. At the time, it had quite the impact. Frankel helped women understand that the societal pressure they'd received to be nice, and their desire to be liked by their co-workers, was negatively affecting their success.
(Photo Credit: mrhayata/Flickr)
Now, Frankel has released an updated version of the book Nice Girls Still Don't Get the Corner Office, aimed at bringing the message to millennials. Bonnie Marcus of Forbes spoke with her about it.
I did a workshop with a group of college seniors, recently — 450 women. And I asked the question, 'What messages did you get in childhood that your brothers didn't get?' So now, we're talking about 20, 21-year-olds here; maybe even a couple of 19-year-olds in there. And they said all the things that I heard 40-year-old women saying 10 years ago: 'Be nice, be kind, be careful. You'll always have to look nice. You can't be as smart as a boy.' And then, I said, 'But I also know there are some of you who got different messages.' And then, a lot of women raised their hands and said, 'Yeah, I was told I can do anything I want. I was told I'm every bit as good as a boy. I was told the sky's the limit for me.' And I said, 'Yeah! But then, what happened?' And then they said, 'Yeah, but then, you get out into society, and you realize, just because mom and dad say it's true, doesn't make it true.'
It's not just millennial women who could benefit from considering some of Frankel's points. Many women still struggle with some of the beliefs and behaviors Frankel warned about, and they are still being held back professionally as a result.
Also, women are still perceived differently both in and outside of the workplace. Understanding these assumptions, and working to right them, is a process in which both genders must participate.
"They've been doing some studies now, comparing men and women who negotiate — and who negotiate to win," says Frankel. "And they do find that the men who negotiate to win are seen as hard drivers, successful negotiators, aggressive — all kinds of words that are really very positive — to apply to a man. But they see the woman as greedy. Or unrealistic, or a number of other things. So women really are between a rock and a hard place. Because the fact is, we do have different rules in the workplace for men and women."
No matter the height of the obstacles, women should spend some time thinking about their own nice girl tendencies and how they could be holding them back professionally.
Here are a few signs you might be suffering from nice girl syndrome.
1. You smile a lot, even when you don't mean it.
Women in our culture are given the message that making people around them feel comfortable is important. A smile puts others at ease and makes them feel liked. But, this isn't always the best tactic professionally. Women should remind themselves to stand in the power of their convictions and not be afraid to believe strongly in something they're saying or doing. A smile tempers that fire. Your ideas might be taken more seriously, and your passion and expertise might be more easily perceived by others, if your facial expression matches your true emotions.
2. You care a lot about what your co-workers think of you.
Everyone wants to be liked. The difference is that women are told from a young age that being nice is the way to get them there. However, your intelligence, creativity, experience, capabilities, and even your honesty, will make an even stronger impression on others than showing a tremendous amount of kindness. Being overly concerned with what others think of you derails your primary professional objectives. You'll earn more respect from others through being less concerned what they think and more concerned with doing excellent work.
3. You have a hard time saying no.
Saying no to a request is difficult for a lot of women. Even when they do turn down an additional responsibility or project, or deny someone time or support that they ask for, many women tend to apologize or give a lengthy explanation for why they aren't able to do the task, sometimes even pledging to help the next time around. If you're too busy to do something, or it doesn't interest you, or you don't want to do it for any reason, simply saying "no" is fine. If you must elaborate, just use a short and simple phrase like, "not today," or, "I can't make that work." There is no need to explain beyond that. It really is the best way to ensure that you don't spend hours each day working toward someone else's goals and agenda rather than your own.

I've installed Doom 3 on windows last day and it worked really fine,
