Review: Interstellar (2014)
FINALLY! Have been waiting for this Movie like a Star Wars Fanboy standing in Line in front of the Cinema. Been there, done that. And in case of INTERSTELLAR, it was very well worth it! The Movie is great and pretty much met my Expectations of what was going to hit me.
Nonetheless; i am disappointed somehow. But let me explain. The Movie is terrific and in almost every Aspect extraordinary!
Chris Nolan is the new Superstar among the Directors and reminds me a lot about a young Ridley Scott. Hungry, Gritty, uncompromising! His Direction is fantastic and i also felt reminded about Kubricks 2001, which is a Masterpiece in it´s own Way.
The Plot is intelligent and emotional at the same Time. The Cast is great and Matthew McConaughey is as good as it gets. The scientific Data that was integrated in the Screenplay is probably extremely accurate and it´s hard to find something that isn´t great in this Movie. But somehow, i felt like the Movie lost touch with my Emotions. Though the Film adds a whole lot of emotional Drama, i didn´t really get warm with the Characters. Most particularly Matthew McConaughey´s Role seemed very cold, especially towards his Son. But let´s take a closer look at the Plot first!
In a near Future: The World is dying and people try desperately not to go down the same Road as the Dinosaurs. The Plants are struggling to survive with all kinds of Natural Contaminations and when even the Corn Crops fail, Humanity is looking for a Way out.
As People need all Resources for surviving, there is no real Military anymore. Nasa is working secretly in a remote Location in order to keep people from freaking over the fact that their last Resources are spent for people watching the Stars. Which is not the case, because what they are actually doing is searching for a new habitable "Earth" that would guarantee the Humanities Survival. So they send a Group of brave People out into different directions in the Solar System to find us a new Home. Most people fail but a few of them are signalling that the Conditions on the Planets would allow human life to exist. Because of that, NASA´s Plan is to put together a Crew of Astronauts to fly there and start a colony for mankind to live.
After watching a strange Anomaly in the Room of his Daughter Murph, Ex-NASA Pilot Rust Cole (McConaughey) is somehow guided to the absolutely secret NASA Headquarter and joins the Team as Lead-Pilot in order to save mankind.
I don´t want to spoil too much of the actual Plot and how everything goes down but i will mention a few details of the Story that i found remarkable; so if you haven´t seen this Movie, i guess it´s Time to avoid the Rest because i will go a little bit in Detail and will mention stuff that can spoil the Plot.
The CGI are outstanding. The Movie was shot in IMAX and the Movie looks absolutely fabulous on the big screen. Technically, this is the state of the Art and i am very happy about Nolan´s work so far. BUT this is NOT Chris Nolans best Movie. It is really a great Movie but there were so many Things not right on an emotional Level with the Movie that i just wasn´t as entertained as i was in Movies like THE DARK KNIGHT or even THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. There were so many people who were unhappy with THE DARK KNIGHT RISES but i found it to be a totally legit and solid Sequel and at no point, i wasn´t grinning like a Potato. But in INTERSTELLAR, I wasn´t feeling it. The Script is pretty solid and i cannot agree with Remarks about the Story being totally unbelievable but the Story goes so much into Detail about the Scientific Facts that i somehow lost the Fun. At some Point, i felt like Nolan´s Movie has everything it takes but Heart.
And speaking of Heart. For me, one of the biggest Problem was the Coldness with which McConaughey played Cole. I mean, this Guy just leaves his Family on Earth and all he does is patting his Son on the Shoulder like "cya Brosinski" and leaves? No Wonder he started to get Depressed over this. Well played by Casey Affleck by the Way.
McConaughey is Great in every Aspect. Love his Acting and he was perfect for the Role. But i wasn´t able to get attached to the Characters here. Anne Hathaway is great too and Marky Damon was terrific. He was like, the secret Star of the Movie for me. But the whole Thing with him was SO obvious. It was TOTALLY obvious to me that he´ll pull an "ASH"-Move (Bad Android in ALIEN 1) and try to get rid of Matthew. I would have done the same. HELL YEAH TAKE ALL MY EQUIPMENT TO GET BACK TO EARTH TO CUDDLE WITH YOU DAUGHTER SMACK SMACK SMACK AND NOW GTFO.
And speaking of obvious. You certainly remember the Ghost/Anomaly in the House when Cole is about to leave. It was SO SO SO obvious that it´s Cole from the Future. Not sure if i was just lucky to guess that but i felt like that´s such an Important Aspect of the Story that laid right in Front of people´s Eyes right from the Start.
Apart from that, the Movie was great. Not an All-time-Classic but one of Chris Nolan´s best Works. I feel if i would rate this Movie just by the Quality of the technical Aspects, i would need to give it a 100%. But this is not Film-School and i base my Ratings on more than just the Craftsmanship. Personally, i would be surprised if INTERSTELLAR doesn´t win the Special Effects Oscar this Year but great Effects never made a great Movie.
The Soundtrack was once more created by Hans Zimmer and it´s a very unique Work that´s not far behind the pumping Classic he created THE DARK KNIGHT. Camerawork is extraordinary and the Sound Effects totally blew me away! The Visuals, the CGI Effects, you name it! All in a League of their own. The little Details like Colors or Inside-Trivia like naming the Daughter Murph after Murphys Law shows what a Master Nolan is. Maybe my Expectations were too high but i wasn´t really as enthusiastic about INTERSTELLAR as everybody else seemed to be. Hell yeah, it´s Great. But i know that Nolan can do a lot more better and somehow, the Soul isn´t there for me. And in my Eyes; the Problem lies in the Characterization of the Roles and how they Interact. Honestly and i have no Shame saying it…i cried more on ARMAGEDDON. Ha Ha, thinking about it, that was a bit Wussy-like but still; i didn´t get the feels for the Characters. Their Scenes and Interactions were very well written and with a lot of Love for Detail but i felt the whole Thing to be totally cold.
Now i want to come to an End and i would like to end this with writing about my Reaction to the Movie. Though i wasn´t as happy as i hoped to be after watching it, i started reading more about the Universe, Time and our Place within all this Mess after watching it. I actually took out my A SHORT HISTORY OF TIME again after i had it on my Shelve for at least 10 years without touching it. What i want to say is, that the Movie had an Influence on me. It made me think and woke me up a bit from the Day-to-Day Dream that we call everyday Life and made me curious about some Things again. And that is something that very few Movies are ablte to do. It´s like Nolan´s Plan isn´t always to make Movies that everybody likes, as long as he does something that triggers a Response in the Viewers Mind. And in that Regard, it is a Masterpiece.

Is There More to Long Memory in Fixed-Income Excess Returns and Volatility than Structural Instability?
Unlike equity returns, many fixed-income return and volatility measures appear to display considerable long memory. Connolly and G½ner (working paper, 1999) show this holds particularly strongly for shorter-maturity Treasury securities in the U.S. They show that fixed-income return and volatility series for other G-7 countries also display long memory. In a number of recent papers, Granger has argued that long memory in returns may only reflect infrequent structural breaks. He finds the case for long memory in volatility much stronger. Parke (Review of Economics and Statistics, 2000) develops a model that generates long memory through a type of structural shift. In this paper, we show that the extent of long memory depends crucially on whether gross or excess returns are under consideration and we provide a simple demonstration of why this distinction is so important. We also carefully explore the impact of structural instability on tests for long memory using a version of the supLM test developed by Andrews. Briefly, we find that evidence of long memory in both gross and excess returns is very considerably weakened after accounting for structural shifts. By contrast, we find that long memory in excess return volatility appears to exist even after controlling for structural shifts. Finally, our estimates of the long memory parameter for excess return volatility series shift from the nonstationary to the stationary range once we account for structural shifts. As a part of the analysis, we also compare the performance of different estimators of long memory volatility model parameters. We conclude the paper with some discussion of the implications of long memory in excess return volatility for asset pricing tests and risk management.

Backup exec: Time to grow up
This article is part of the Storage magazine issue of Vol. 3 No. 12 February 2005
As Windows servers grow in size and number, backup software designed for workgroup environments has had trouble keeping up. At least that's been the case for Veritas' Backup Exec, and it's a problem the company hopes it has solved with the introduction of version 10 last month. Veritas customer Josh Bauer, a network administrator at Daymon Worldwide, Stamford, CT, says that by upgrading to version 10, he won't have to upgrade to an enterprise-class product like Veritas' NetBackup or EMC/Legato's NetWorker. Daymon is using Backup Exec 10 with the Desktop/Laptop option to protect approximately 20 servers and 300 desktops. Arguably, the main enhancement in Backup Exec 10 is the Central Administration Server Option (CASO), a "manager of managers," says Peter Gerr, senior analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). With CASO, you can define, distribute and report on jobs from a single console. It replaces Backup Exec 9's Admin Plus option, which "was kind of like the tip of the iceberg in terms of what people needed," says Pat ...

Cornforth Campbell Collision CARSTAR
Review for Cornforth Campbell Collision CARSTAR
Thomas K. on 05/13/2015
Spoke with Jean. She said the overall experience was wonderful. She insisted the vehicle completed on time even though they called to let her know it would be delayed. She said her children are competitive horse riders and they had a two week window when the vehicle would not be needed. The facility was very accommodating and scheduled the vehicle in, had ordered the parts and completed the repair in that two week period, causing her children to be ecstatic about not to have to miss a competition.

Abu Dhabi, Singapore to Promote Fintech Innovation
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) have signed an agreement to assist fintech entrepreneurs and support financial services innovation in Singapore and Abu Dhabi, according to Paybefore sister publication Banking Technology.
The agreement establishes a framework for both regulators to guide startups and innovators through the regulatory regime in each jurisdiction and provide support through the application and authorization process. Both authorities also will look at projects that include digital and mobile payments, blockchain and distributed ledgers, big data and APIs.
Asia and the MENA (Middle East-North Africa) regions have "immense growth potential and a large underserved financial sector," said Richard Teng, CEO, ADGM's financial services regulatory authority.
MAS and ADGM have shown plenty of ambition and activity. Recent events include MAS supporting Insurance Australia Group with its plan to build an insurance technology hub in Singapore and MAS setting up a new data analytics group to improve the financial sector and digital economy.
In 2016, MAS opened its fintech innovation lab, known as Looking Glass @ MAS, and signed an agreement with the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority to foster more fintech cooperation. Also last year, ADGM launched its Regulatory Laboratory to boost innovation in the region.

Just installed Hotspot Shield (latest version 2.74, also tried 2.65) and its install was successful but after it's turned on (green icon shows) then I start a blocked website like YouTube, Last.fm or Metrolyrics.com on Firefox, my laptop crashes and shows blue screen, shows something like: XX00000789, 0000089998 kind of messages and BAD_POOL_CALLER message on the top left of the blue screen...

IN 1995, when Justice William J. Brennan Jr. agreed to lend his name to the Brennan Center for Justice, the public-interest law center at New York University, he extracted a promise from E. Joshua Rosenkranz and the other former law clerks and friends who founded it.
Under no circumstances, he said, must the center feel bound by any single judicial opinion of his: if the center believes in the importance of a cause, it must pursue that cause regardless of anything he might have written to the contrary.
It didn't take long for the center to follow those orders. A year later, the center's leaders decided to work to overturn what is considered one of Justice Brennan's most influential opinions: Buckley v. Valeo, the 1976 decision that banned all limits on campaign spending. The opinion was unsigned, but much of it was widely thought to have been written by the late Justice, who believed that money spent to allow a candidate to communicate was entitled to complete First Amendment protection.
To Mr. Rosenkranz, who clerked for Justice Brennan in 1987-88 and who is now the executive director of the increasingly influential center, campaign finance reform fits within the spirit, if not the precise letter, of the Justice's writings.
''He said we should never pledge allegiance to any particular opinion of his, but rather that we be moved by the spirit of the Brennan legacy, the spirit of always being willing to ask hard questions, coming up with innovative solutions and pushing forcefully to have them adopted,'' Mr. Rosenkranz said. ''That's what the Justice was all about.''Continue reading the main story
The lawyers at the center decided that the Buckley decision, written 12 years before soft money became an issue in Presidential elections, had become a roadblock to full campaign finance reform. It allowed rich candidates to spend unlimited amounts on their own campaigns, and spurred political parties to raise hundreds of millions in the unregulated donations at the heart of the current campaign finance debate.
The Brennan Center rounded up 126 signatures of some of the country's most respected constitutional scholars on the subject, all of whom agreed that there was nothing unconstitutional about closing the soft-money loophole. The letter helped undercut some of the arguments being made against campaign finance reform, and now the center has become a sort of house counsel to many of the groups and legislators fighting for change. They often call Mr. Rosenkranz or his colleague, the well-known civil liberties lawyer Burt Neuborne, for legal assistance.
MR. Rosenkranz now leads a group that by this summer is to number 14 lawyers and six assistants, working on issues that the center's board believes were important to Justice Brennan: campaign finance reform at the national and state levels, ballot access, racial redistricting and, for the poor, the right to counsel.
These issues generally track the Justice's liberal philosophy, but on a nonpartisan basis: the group was co-counsel in the successful suit in 1996 that opened the Republican Presidential primary in New York to Steve Forbes. And in treading the gap between free speech and campaign reform, the Brennan Center has often found itself opposing the American Civil Liberties Union and strict First Amendment advocates.
''As much as I disagree with them on the campaign finance issue, I think they've taken an extraordinary leadership position in this public debate, probably just as Justice Brennan would have wanted,'' said the First Amendment lawyer Floyd Abrams. ''One thing they've demonstrated already is that they are not a Brennan memorial society. Instead, they're seriously analyzing current social problems and applying a high level of intelligence to the task.''
Mr. Rosenkranz's personal sense of pragmatism was aided by having clerked for both Justice Brennan and, a year earlier, for then-Judge Antonin Scalia, in his last year on the District of Columbia Circuit Court before being elevated to the Supreme Court. Though more ideologically in tune with Justice Brennan, Mr. Rosenkranz was the type of law student who wanted a rigorous challenge, and found one in the country's best-known conservative jurist.
''I wanted someone to question what I thought may be my mush-minded liberal views, and to put me in the position of having to defend them or abandon them,'' he said. ''I think I came out of it adhering even more to those views. But I got a real insight into how people with different judicial philosophies think. It doesn't make them bad or evil, they just see the way the world works very differently.''
Like many public-interest lawyers, Mr. Rosenkranz, 36, could be making a great deal more money in the private sector, but he found himself drawn to the power of making a difference. Born in Manhattan, the son of a biochemist, he attended Georgetown Law School and became first director of New York City's Office of the Appellate Defender, which he helped found in 1988 and where he argued hundreds of appeals before joining the Brennan Center. The sense of humanity that he learned from Justice Brennan, he said, made the career choice inevitable.
''Always, every day, I think about how the Justice would approach this, how would he think about it,'' he said. ''The magic of the Brennan legacy is the union of reason and passion, the union of the heart and the mind that I think no one in the history of the Court quite matches.''Continue reading the main story

Would Ludacris ever join a reality show? Maybe, but there's just one show you won't expect to catch him on. During a premiere party of "Fast & The Furious 6" Ludacris spoke about why you won't see him on popular reality show "Love And Hip Hop Atlanta".
On if he's a fan of the show he stated, " I haven't got a chance to watch a full complete episode or whatever but I've seen a little bit of it here and there, it's definitely entertaining."
Would he join the cast? "That's not something for me, respectfully, that's not my cup of tea but I love checking out when I get a chance.", Ludacris added.
During his exclusive interview with our friends over at Diva Whispers the Atlanta rapper disputed any claims he's ever join a reality show like "Love And Hip Hop Atlanta". Here's what he had to say.

Everything You Need to Know About Mushrooms
Fresh mushrooms are soft, edible fungi that are earthy in flavour. While there are many kinds of mushrooms that grow in the wild, not all of them are safe to eat. Canadian mushrooms that are available in grocery stores are always safe to eat, and there are lots of options to choose from.
Different types of mushrooms will boast different complexities in flavour: some have more umami, some seem to melt away as you eat them, while others have a hearty and meaty texture. Try them all to see which ones you like best.
Mushroom Varieties
White "Button" Mushrooms:
White mushrooms are the most popular mushrooms in Ontario. They have an earthy flavour that intensifies with cooking. The colour of these mushrooms varies from bright white to a darker off-white colour. White mushrooms are available in three different sizes: small "buttons", medium sized or large "jumbo".
Best Cooking Methods: Serve in soups, salads, appetizers, and entrées; can also be eaten raw.
Cremini "Brown" Mushrooms:
Cremini mushrooms are like the white mushroom in shape and size, but are firmer in texture. They have a meaty, earthy flavour that is more intense than white mushrooms. These mushrooms have a dark cap that ranges from a light tan to a rich brown colour.
Best Cooking Methods: Serve in soups, salads and entrées, or enjoyed raw. These are a great substitute for white mushrooms.
Portabella Mushrooms:
Portabellas are a fully grown cremini mushrooms. They have less moisture than cremini mushrooms, making them meatier in texture with a strong, earthy flavour. These big mushrooms have a large light-tan coloured cap, and exposed gills. Portabellas are the largest of all domestic mushrooms.
Best Cooking Methods: Can be grilled or baked and used in appetizers, side dishes and entrées. Portabellas are great meat substitutes because of their natural umami flavour and meaty texture.
Shiitake Mushrooms:
Shiitake mushrooms have very different appearance and texture than white or cremini mushrooms. They have a soft, spongy texture that releases a woodsy flavour when cooked. These mushrooms range in colour from tan to dark brown. They have umbrella shaped caps, 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) in diameter, with open veils and tan gills.
Best Cooking Methods: Shiitake mushrooms are most commonly used in stir-fry and pasta dishes. They are best enjoyed cooked.
Oyster Mushrooms: Oyster mushrooms have a delicate flavour that is milder than other mushrooms. They have a light to dark brown funnel or fluted cap, a velvety texture, and white-yellow gills on a short, off-center, stem.
Best Cooking Methods: Because of the velvety texture of the Oyster mushroom, they make a great compliment to dishes featuring chicken, seafood and pork.
Enoki Mushrooms: Enoki mushrooms look very different from the other mushrooms on this list. They can be identified by their long, slender, white stems with tiny firm caps. These mushrooms have a mild, delicate flavour, with a slightly crunchy texture.
Best Cooking Methods: Enoki mushrooms are commonly used in Asian dishes but are also suitable for salads, soups, sandwiches and pasta. These mushrooms can be eaten raw or cooked.
King Oyster Mushrooms: King Oyster mushrooms are pleasantly chewy, with a texture that remains firm when cooked. These thick stemmed fungi have a light tan cap, white stem, and a sweet woodsy flavour.
Best Cooking Methods: Slice the whole mushrooms and use it in stir-fry dishes, or sautéed in French, Italian or Mediterranean cuisines. Try grilling these mushrooms, as they become golden brown and deliciously crisp.
How to Select and Store Mushrooms
Select fresh, firm, even-shaped mushrooms with no bruises or visible moisture on the outside. Avoid buying slimy mushrooms. When buying loose mushrooms, try selecting ones that are close to the same size to ensure similar cooking times. Store these mushrooms in a brown paper bag in the fridge to maintain their taste and texture.
If buying packaged mushrooms, check to make sure there is no excess moisture inside the package. Packaged mushrooms keep well in the refrigerator, but once opened they should be transferred and stored in a brown paper bag, as they will breathe better and stay firm longer.
Mushrooms are best when used within a few days of purchase, but can be kept in the fridge for up to one week.
To Freeze Mushrooms; simply clean and slice them, and then place them carefully in a freezer bag. Blanching makes them tough, and is unnecessary if you intend to freeze them for less than 3 months. If you plan to freeze mushrooms for a longer period, sprinkle them with lemon juice diluted with water and then blanch them for 2½ minutes. Add them to recipes from frozen.
How to Prepare Mushrooms
Clean mushrooms just before you are about to use them. To clean them, gently brush away the dirt (which is peat moss) with a soft brush or wipe with a damp paper towel and trim any stem ends.
Contrary to the myth that you cannot wash mushrooms, if they're really dirty, you can give them a quick rinse in cold water and pat dry. Soaked mushrooms may add a small amount of water but they're already high in water content so cleaning them doesn't make too much of a difference. The most noticeable difference is that it may take an extra minute or two for the mushrooms to release their juices before they start to brown.
If you are cooking with Shiitake mushrooms, remember that they have a tough stem that needs to be removed. Other mushroom varieties typically have tender stems and can be left intact. After being cleaned, mushrooms can be chopped, sliced, grated, torn or left whole.
Mushrooms can be enjoyed raw or cooked.
You may be familiar with the term "don't crowd the mushrooms." To brown mushrooms, it's recommended that you cook them in smaller amounts so they will have more space in the pan to release their water content, which will evaporate. Cooking large batches of mushrooms will also yield this result provided you cook them longer and do not disturb the mushrooms' contact with the heat. Once mushrooms release their water content, they will shrink and then brown. Be patient and let them brown before stirring.
To Sautee: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet. Add 8 ounces of mushrooms, and stir the mushrooms until all of their juices have evaporated.
To Butter Steam: Cut mushrooms lengthwise into ¼ inch slices. Butter-steam up to 5 cups of mushrooms at a time by using 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes over medium high heat, stirring occasionally to allow the mushrooms to steam and cook off their moisture and to acquire even browning.
To Grill: Use button, brown, or shiitake mushrooms. Cut off tough stem ends. Thread smaller mushrooms on skewers. Brush with oil, butter or margarine. Grill for about 10 minutes.
To Microwave: Cut 1 pound of mushrooms lengthwise into ¼ inch slices, or into halves or quarters. Place in a microwave-safe dish. Dot with 6 tsp of butter or margarine. Cover and microwave on high for 4 to 6 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Let stand, covered, for 2 minutes.
To Stir-fry: Cut mushrooms lengthwise into ¼ inch slices, or into halves or quarters. Stir-fry up to 5 cups at a time, using 1 tablespoon of oil, for 3 to 4 minutes.
Mushroom Tips
- Have a lot of mushrooms to slice? An egg slicer is a fun way to slice mushrooms and it cuts the work in half. Also, try using the slicing wheel attachment in your food processor to slice mushrooms quickly.
- If a recipe calls for finely chopped mushrooms, try grating them instead. Use this technique to incorporate the great flavour of mushrooms into dishes like meatloaf and pasta sauce. This is an easy way to serve mushrooms to fussy eaters since it's almost impossible to know that they are there.
- Mushrooms must release their juice to brown. Cook mushrooms over medium heat until they begin to release their liquid, then turn the heat to high until the liquid has evaporated. At this point the mushrooms will sizzle and begin to brown.
- Did you know that Portabella mushrooms have as much potassium as bananas do?
- Did you know that Mushrooms are grown year-round in Canada? This is because mushrooms are grown in the dark; in climate-controlled buildings. The ideal growing conditions for mushrooms (dark, humid and damp) are kept constant in these buildings throughout the entire year. Therefore, local production and harvesting of the six varieties of fresh mushrooms occurs year-round.
- It is recommended that you enjoy dried mushrooms within one year.
Mushrooms go well with
Vegetables: asparagus, leeks, lemon, garlic, shallots, onions, fennel, peas, tomatoes
Spices & Herbs: chives, marjoram, olive oil, pepper, dill, parsley, tarragon, basil, oregano, and rosemary
Savoury: bacon, eggs, ham, fish, chicken, veal, and seafood
Other: vinegar, wine, sherry, stocks, cream, and cheese
Serving Ideas
There are many ways to enjoy mushrooms in every meal from breakfast to dinner.
Try butter-steaming mushroom slices to add to omelettes, or use as topping for steaks and hamburgers.
Offer whole medium-sized mushrooms with a dip for an appetizer, or slice and add to green salads or soups. Stuffed large mushroom caps also make a nice appetizer or side dish.
Large portabellas can be marinated and grilled to be used as the 'burger' for a meat-free dish.
Add a combination of mushrooms to pasta, salad, gravies or sauces, to add a complexity of flavour to your meal. Using a mixture of different kinds of mushrooms also makes a delicious soup.
Use mushrooms for vegetarian or vegan dishes to add a meatiness and umami taste, like in this risotto or this shepherd's pie
Mushrooms can also be combined with beef in recipes to increase the serving of vegetables in a dish, add volume to meals and extend portions.
Try serving creamy mushroom turkey meatballs over pasta or rice, for lightened up take on the classic Italian dish.
Mini mushroom sliders are a perfectly portioned party food.
Finely chopped mushrooms blend extremely well with ground beef in dishes like Mushroom Meatball Subs, Cheeseburger Quesadillas and Sloppy Joes. It also works very well in pasta dishes like Spaghetti Bolognese and Cheesy Mushroom Beef Skillets.
Mushrooms are packed with nutrients! Four to five medium sized mushrooms (approx. 100 g) provide important vitamins and minerals, essential for a healthy body and active lifestyle. According to the Canadian Nutrient File, 100 g of mushrooms contain a great number of your daily-recommended intake of nutrients 25 calories, no cholesterol, almost no fat, 1 gram of fiber, 25% of riboflavin, 21% of pantothenic acid, 19% of selenium, 16% of copper, 9% of potassium, 8% of phosphorus, 6% of vitamin B6, 4% of vitamin D, and 4% of vitamin C.

Ford SYNC with MyFord Touch technology is set to make its debut in the United Kingdom next year, turning the all-new Ford Focus into a moving WiFi hot spot. Owners of the Ford Focus will be the first to experience the advantages of SYNC's class-leading connectivity. The system will be rolled out to several other Ford units after its debut on the global C-segment model.
With an existing Smartphone or USB modem, a secure wireless connectivity is made possible throughout the vehicle, allowing passengers with WiFi-enabled gadgets to access the Internet. Up to five devices can utilize the WiFi connectivity easily and conveniently.
The SYNC's wide range potential will allow Ford to offer everyone a level of Internet access that was recently only available to owners of expensive luxury vehicles.
This means that in-car Internet access will no longer be a feature available only to chauffeur-driven executives. The ever growing popularity and availability of WiFi-enabled devices mean that passengers of Ford can stay on top of the latest news, keep in touch with friends and play the latest games online anytime while on the move.
Ford's chief engineer for electronic and electrical systems, Christof Kellerwessel, stated that the company is becoming a personal technology automaker as well. The company has found that Ford passengers are tech savvy, wanting to use their WiFi-capable gadgets while on the move.
For these individuals, a reliable in-car connection to the Internet is of utmost importance, and that's what SYNC can offer when it makes it launch on the Ford Focus in 2012. Kellerwessel added that the SYNC with MyFord Touch will offer mobile connectivity to Ford customers. Also, everyone in a vehicle equipped with the SYNC can make the connection at no additional expense.
A big benefit of having the SYNC with MyFord Touch WiFi is that customers can use different USB devices and this removes the need to buy equipment that have to be compatible. With the use of software updates, SYNC makes sure that the system continues to be compatible even with the most current devices and hardware. With SYNC in their vehicles, customers will be able to use any smartphone or USB mobile broadband modem.
It is possible to do this even if said devices have yet to be released on the market. Kellerwessel shared that the company knew from the start that its connectivity solution would need to be up-to-date in order to keep up with the advances of consumer electronics. The brand also knew that it had to be both upgradeable and flexible so as to be useful as long as customers have their vehicles. Meanwhile its WiFi capability continues to be a user-friendly solution that allows Ford vehicles to connect to the internet even when on the move. Ford revealed that this system will be factory-installed and integrated to the hardware.
This is better compared to the internet connection systems from other automakers which use a transmitter and bolt-in receiver. This system will arrive in 2012 inside the Ford Focus. The WiFi does not require any subscription fee and can offer connections for a maximum of five devices. What this means is that the SYNC with MyFord Touch is sure to make the Ford Focus as the best connected vehicle in its segment. Kellerwessel revealed that with the SYNC, customers can use a USB modem device or even get an internet connection by using a smartphone through Bluetooth.
What this means is that the SYNC delivers to Ford customers the best when it comes to flexibility and value, he continued. In addition, with the SYNC WiFi system, a signal is then broadcasted all over the vehicle. The system has a default security and this has been set to the WiFi Protected Access 2 or WPA2.
All that's needed to connect to the internet is for users to put in the randomly chosen password. Further, once the SYNC identifies a new WiFi device that is trying to connect for the first time, the driver has to give permission for that device to connect. With this, any unauthorized users are prevented from piggybacking on the signal.

The average person thinks he's above average!
For most folks, they don't know, what they don't know.

No we cant do this. I am familiar with this and this article is very useful. I want to do exactly what I mentioned. I want to do a table import from Access 2000 into Oracle 10g, without a DB link or making entries to a TNS names files etc.
Now is this not possible to do an import from access to oracle without the tnsname setup?
Thanks for your help.

I know, we can do this also, (and I am having to do this )but this is something which will be done once a month. My thought was to set up an import once. Then schedule it on a DBMS job. I wont be around to do this every month.

Work teams from the National Works Agency NWA are working to restore full vehicular access, to the Seaman's Valley to Moore Town roadway in Portland.
Several residents in the Moore Town area were marooned as a result of a massive landslide, which left a section of the roadway impassable yesterday.
Speaking with Irie Fm News, Member for Parliament for Eastern Portland Dr. Lynvale Bloomfield, states that although there is single lane access, massive boulders are still along the roadway.
He says work will be done to remove the boulders.
In the meantime, Dr. Bloomfield says the NWA and contractors have begun constructing a retaining wall along the break away at the West Retreat roadway in Port Antonio.
The roadway was undermined due to days of heavy rains.

Analysts warned that a Spanish weapons race would depend on post-Franco era.
18 January 2008
MADRID - In 1974, the CIA believed that Spain could become "a possible proliferator" of nuclear weapons, warning that it had an extensive long-range nuclear program that deserved the US government's special attention.
In a declassified document released this week by the US intelligence agency, the CIA also warned that Spain was already testing a uranium-separation plant, but said it would depend on "an unlikely combination of circumstances," including the policies of a post-Franco government (the dictator died in 1975), to propel Spain in the nuclear arms race.
The 50-page assessment, entitled Prospects for Further Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, was released on Monday after the National Security Archive at George Washington University in Washington DC filed a petition to gain access to it under the Freedom of Information Act. The survey was published on 17 May 1974 after India tested a nuclear device.
In it, US intelligence analysts said that Spain - along with Iran, Egypt, Pakistan Brazil and South Korea - would need at least a decade to carry out a nuclear-weapons development program. "One or another might detonate a demonstrative device earlier - perhaps considerably earlier by using purchased materials or by obtaining extensive foreign assistance," the document states. "Each of these countries is subject to a different set of motivations and pressures."
In the Spanish case, the CIA said that Spain had not signed the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, which 19 countries had signed by then, and "was unlikely to do so."
"Spain is the one European country that is deserving of some attention as a possible proliferator in the years ahead. It has indigenous uranium reserves of moderate size, an extensive long-range nuclear power program (three reactors in operation, seven under construction and up to 17 more planned), and a pilot [uranium] separation plant," reads the once top-secret paper.
Analysts pointed out that Spain had refused to sign the non-proliferation treaty because "pledges of protection for non-nuclear states" were inadequate and required periodic inspections, which reveal development secrets to competitors. "However, Spain is linked to the US by a bilateral military agreement that Spanish leaders are likely to view as offering better security than any independent Spanish nuclear capability."
Under Socialist Prime Minister Felipe González, Spain signed the treaty in 1986.
Today there are eight nuclear power plants in operation, but there is a 24-year-old moratorium on building new ones. Prime Minister José Rodríguez Zapatero said last week that he will reduce the country's dependence on nuclear power in favour of renewable sources of energy, such a wind power.
Although the CIA document was declassified, parts of the assessment were heavily excised before it was posted on the agency's website on Monday.

Ending the season with a bang
I'll always have a special place in my heart for the Burton U.S. Open. Until two years ago when they moved it to Vail, Colo., it was only nine miles away from where I grew up in Vermont. So I think it's safe to say I have more appreciation for those podiums than anyone. And winning my seventh title -- more than any other rider, male or female -- was about the best way I could imagine to end my season.
It was a perfect week of riding all around. The pipe was edge-able, but not too icy or too slushy. As far as halfpipes go, it doesn't get any better. Combine that with a progressive three-run format (you get three runs and your best one counts) and the fact that by March everyone is at the top of their game and has all their tricks dialed in, and it was some pretty awesome riding.
And not that I'm trying to prove anything to anybody else other than myself, but it was refreshing to look back and realize that I didn't fall once in any of my practice runs, my warm-ups or my contest runs. After falling six out of seven runs in Sochi, that was personally pretty encouraging!
It was a little strange because for once I didn't have either of my two coaches there with me. One coach, Tommy Czeschin, was a contestant a few years ago on "The Amazing Race" (with fellow snowboarder Andy Finch) and one of his prizes, a trip to Dubai, was about to expire. He booked the trip with his wife ages ago, not anticipating that he'd be going to the U.S. Open. My other coach, Ricky Bower, ended up not coming because his wife was three weeks from her due date and they wanted to play it safe. Good thing he did, because the contest ended Saturday and baby Noah was born Sunday!
Luckily I know most of the people at the top and they're all pretty helpful and knowledgeable. So I was asking questions (like what kind of runs to put together) of the rookie coach, Spencer, or my friend James, who is a long time industry guy. Typically I have a plan as far as the run I want to do but I warm up gradually, doing bigger and bigger tricks as I see how the pipe rides, and I like to check myself and make sure I have another set of eyes to double check my approach. There was only one panicked call to Ricky, who was glued to the webcast!
My first run was solid but I was carrying a bit too much speed halfway down and thought I was close to the line of in control vs. out of control. I was planning to do a front 9 but I backed off and did a front 5 instead. It was too good of a run to throw away, and I knew if I could put up a good score it would relieve the pressure so I could get the run I really wanted in the end.
It was funny, when I got to the bottom my friend Tricia Byrnes, who I competed with for years, was announcing the webcast. She said to me, "Good call switching it up mid-run and ditching your front 9. That was too good to throw away." She's the ultimate competitor and a legend in the sport of snowboarding and she identified my exact thought process!
For the second run I went and put down that run perfectly again, but that time I did the 9 and did it right, which gave me the score I wanted and also the last drop position -- meaning I could see what everyone else did before I took my third run. But even though I knew I had it won, I'm not one to go out there and throw away a contest by just doing a victory lap. I'm trying to reach my own goals and push the boundaries of what I'm capable of.
The first night I got home I slept for 14 hours straight. You don't even realize how geared up you are until you don't have to be geared up anymore. It just takes so much of my brain space to stay focused like that, to stay on target and make sure I'm setting myself up for success in contests. It's not something you think about every day but it's the driving force in your motivation. Every single year it surprises me! But that's what it takes to be excellent at what you do -- that kind of commitment and investment. That said, this is the first time I came home where I didn't rush up on the mountain again right away. I stepped back and said, wow, I'm really tired!
Still, I've been in the gym running and biking every day, and next week I'm psyched to be headed on a powder trip Burton put together for us. I've got plenty of real life stuff to catch up on too: stacking wood, cleaning my salt water fish tank, hanging photos, taxes -- all this stuff that's been put on hold for the last four months.
But I'm flipping through Netflix every night. Right now I'm hooked on this BBC documentary "Long Way Down" with Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman. And I've got to say it's nice to go to bed without setting an alarm!

BIRMINGHAM- People gathered at Kelly Ingram Park, Saturday to raise awareness for the issue of violence against transgender women.
Sinseriti, a mother spoke about an incident involving her Transgender daughter Jessica.
"By shooting someone and not only shooting someone, shooting someone who is transwoman, but also transwoman of color and to shoot her and tell her bye and leave something is wrong in his head," said Sinseriti.
Sinseriti daughter was shot on October 3rd. She spoke to supporters from Huntsviille, Montgomery, and in Birmingham Saturday.
"The severity of her injuries were life threatening but by the grace of god and our community coming together and praying for her she was able to come out, she still has more surgeries to go so he's put her life in a really bad situation," said Sinseriti.
Last month, another transgender woman was shot and killed. Jazz Alfred was shot at the Kings Inn on Third Avenue on September 23rd.
23-year-old Denzell Thomas has been charged with Alfred's murder and attempted murder for shooting of Jessica.
Sinseriti wants to see the violence stop.
"We have a voice and our voice needs to be heard," said SInseriti.

"Renowned for his dramatic floral installations and eye for colours and details, Simon Nickell is one of the most revered and watched florists in the UK, setting and predicting trends".
As a wedding and event florist Simon works in London and throughout the UK. The breathtaking setting of his native Cornwall inspired his floral career at the age of 19, and influenced his love of the English herbaceous style.
Having been told that he needed to taken in hand by a wild London florist, he made the move in 1994 to work with some of the Capital's leading floral designers. Since then he has garnered a reputation as a virtuoso in the floral world.
From weddings to corporate events, weekly contracts and private clients, Simon's natural design ethos has always been to let the flowers take centre stage. The industry he loves inspires him on a daily basis, and the changing seasons drive his creativity.
07776 184652
Formal training followed, but never one to stick to the rules, he knew it was time to make the break when a friend said of him, "Simon needs to be taken in hand by a wild London florist".
A move to the big city in 1994 gave him the chance to do just that, and opened the doors to some of the capital's most respected and inspiring florists. His unashamed love of English herbaceous style epitomises his design ethos. Seasonal flowers and foliages are key to his success, and from an intimate dinner party to a lavish celebration are evident in all he does.

Elections, Features, Politics, Top Stories
CPAC 2013: Long on Ideas, Short on Direction
Notes from CPAC 2013, Gaylord Convention Center, National Harbor, MD
Christopher Cook—Western Free Press
A Conservative Political Action Conference following a difficult (and for some, unexpected) defeat in an election is bound to be a little more unfocused and even contentious. This is natural. Such a defeat causes movements and political parties to reexamine their approaches, their messaging, and even their ideas. This is to be expected.
And, as such, CPAC 2013 is just about what one would expect. The different factions that make up the right have their own views on what the movement's direction should be. There is less of a feeling of unity, and more of a feeling of searching.
And guess what—that's okay. This is 2013. In terms of election cycles, it's as "off" as an off-year can be. This is precisely the time for the movement to do its soul-searching. There have been speeches calling for unity, speeches from men who are almost certainly positioning themselves for presidential bids, and speeches honestly addressing the need for the GOP and the movement to find a direction and footing again. All of this is to be expected. All of this is needed. All of this is good.
Yes, it would be nice if this year's CPAC felt more united and energetic—like a group of people all walking purposively in the same direction, rather than a group of people milling about wondering what to do next. I have heard the feeling described as "the first family dinner following a messy divorce," and while that is an evocative and not entirely inaccurate analogy, it's really not that bad. CPAC 2013 merely reflects the realities on the ground:
- We've lost two presidential elections in a row, both with moderate candidates on our ticket. This has created tension and displeasure among the base with the establishment.
- Libertarian ideology and ideas are definitely ascendant within the movement, and core assumptions of the conservative movement (defense, marriage, drug war, and even the death penalty) are being questioned in ways they haven't in a long time.
- Rand Paul and Marco Rubio are both front-runners for movement leaders and for 2016. Some see them as rivals, other see them as a lot closer in ideology than some controvery-mongers in new and old media would have us believe.
- Immigration is a hot topic.
- Chris Christie, Pam Geller, and Robert Spencer not being invited (in the latter's case, being disinvited) are topics of discussion at the many water coolers scattered around the Gaylord.
None of this, with the possible exception of the last item, is much of a surprise. And none of it changes the salient fact that the country is reeling under the effects of Obama-style statism, and the entitlement-driven debt crisis still looms. Someone, some movement, is going to need to arise to change the nation's direction, and soon, or America is going to be in seriously dire straits.
The movement of the right, writ large, remains the only movement that can do that.
The ideology of the right—properly understood as the classical-liberal, Enlightenment-based, libertarian/conservative movement given political life by the American War of Independence—is the only truly revolutionary political movement in human history. All the other movements—from the ancient despotisms and monarchies that reigned for the millennia of human history before the 19th century to the many flavors of modern statism that ruled our lives in the 20th—were just different forms of oppression. There are a thousand ways for governments to oppress people, but only one way for government to allow them be free. That pathways runs straight through the halls of the ideology of the American right.
And the ideas, policy conceptions, and philosophies that form that edifice are all in evidence here at CPAC 2013. The movement hasn't found a unified political direction yet, but it will. And in the meantime, it is clear that the only viable answer for America's current troubles—and for the question of human freedom, writ large—lies with us. It always has.
See you in 2014, statists!

Conservative Voices Rising on Talk Radio
July 1, 2012 — Print this Page
For Immediate Release
Contact: Don Bracken, email@example.com
July 1, 2012
Supreme Court Ruling, Talk Radio,
Conservative Voices Rising
The voices of conservative Americans will be sounding off this week in the forum that has galvanized them into a potent political force. Talk Radio, a web of programs on AM networks, independent stations, FM affiliates and Satellite and Internet stations will be humming with comment this week on Obamacare, Fast and Furious and the upcoming election. It is expected that words of opposition and resolution will dominate content from outraged citizens and strident hosts It is also expected that Talk Radio will be listened to by Democrat electioneers to better gauge the increasing depth of opposition they will be facing this election year.
There is no doubt that every Democrat in Washington and points to the north, south and west, will be listening to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Lavin and all the others, said Fred V. Lucas, the White House Correspondent for CNSNews.com and author of the forthcoming The Right Frequency. The Story of the Talk Radio Giants who shook up the Political and Media Establishment. In a very real way conservative talk radio will be a listening post for the Democrats to gauge the intensity of the opposition they will be facing this fall, said Lucas. They know the recent decision on healthcare stoked the fires of opposition, but by listening to conservative talk radio they will feel the intensity of the heat.
Lucas speaks knowingly on the subject and he knows well of what he speaks. For his forthcoming book he has traced the history of conservative talk radio and interviewed giants from Bill Bennett to Mark Lavin to Bob Grant and a dozen others. He has weaved a story of the history of conservative talk radio from the early days of Walter Winchell to the high ground of Rush Limbaugh and in the process came to know the thought patterns of those who dominate the airwaves today.
Best selling author Mark Lavin said Lucas not only delineates the roots of talk radio as a venue for communicating conservative political thought in the 1930s and 40s, he explains how it has become, in the 21st century, the life force for the conservative movement and the voice for conservative ideals on the current political landscape.
Fred Lucass book The Right Frequency, published by History Publishing Company LLC, Palisades, NY will be published in hardcover, paperback and as an e-book. It will be in bookstores August 3.

Unknown Ohio Young Man
The photo of this young man is part of an album dated December 25, 1890. It is believed this young man and other photos are relations and/or friends of the Hoagland family of Clinton, Summit County, Ohio (who relocated to Navarre, Stark Co., Ohio). This album was inherited from my great-grandparents, Thomas Carl & Fern Mary (Hoagland) Stringfellow of Navarre, Stark County, Ohio.
It is unknown who the photographer is, but there is a signature on the back "Jeehle".

Mrs. WAGNER. Mr. Speaker, in recent weeks, I have received far too many heartbreaking stories from the people of Missouri's Second District about how government-run health care is impacting their lives. Today, I rise to put a face on the horrors of ObamaCare and tell Jim and Kim Curtis' story, who hail from Arnold, Missouri. This is their story in their own words: We, the working middle class, are the ones who are being hurt by this law. We struggle [[Page H7007]] every day to make ends meet. But now, because of ObamaCare, we received a notice from the insurance company that the plan we currently pay for does not meet the guidelines, and we will no longer be covered on January 1, 2014. Now we have to find an extra $500 to $600 minimum per month to cover the insurance that is comparable to what we had before. I have no idea how we will afford that kind of money and pay our bills and mortgage each month. Mr. Speaker, this is just one of millions of examples of real people being hurt by ObamaCare. ____________________
