Dietary supplements and foods with added dietary ingredients, such as vitamins and herbs, constitute multibillion dollar industries. Past reports on the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) regulation of these products raised concerns about product safety and the availability of reliable information. Since then, FDA published draft guidance on requirements for reporting adverse events--which are harmful effects or illnesses--and Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations for dietary supplements. GAO was asked to examine FDA's (1) actions to respond to the new serious adverse event reporting requirements, (2) ability to identify and act on concerns about the safety of dietary supplements, (3) ability to identify and act on concerns about the safety of foods with added dietary ingredients, and (4) actions to ensure that consumers have useful information about the safety and efficacy of supplements.
FDA has made several changes in response to the new serious adverse event reporting requirements and has subsequently received an increased number of reports. For example, FDA has modified its data system, issued draft guidance, and conducted outreach to industry. Since mandatory reporting went into effect on December 22, 2007, FDA has seen a threefold increase in the number of all adverse event reports received by the agency compared with the previous year. For example, from January through October 2008, FDA received 948 adverse event reports--596 of which were mandatory reports submitted by industry--compared with 298 received over the same time period in 2007. Although FDA has received a greater number of reports since the requirements went into effect, underreporting remains a concern, and the agency has further actions planned to facilitate adverse event reporting. FDA has taken some steps to identify and act upon safety concerns related to dietary supplements; however, several factors limit the agency's ability to detect concerns and remove products from the market. For example, FDA has limited information on the number and location of dietary supplement firms, the types of products currently available in the marketplace, and information about moderate and mild adverse events reported to industry. Additionally, FDA dedicates relatively few resources to oversight activities, such as providing guidance to industry regarding notification requirements for products containing new dietary ingredients. Also, once FDA has identified a safety concern, the agency's ability to remove a product from the market is hindered by a lack of mandatory recall authority and the difficult process of demonstrating significant or unreasonable risk for specific ingredients. Although FDA has taken some actions when foods contain unsafe dietary ingredients, certain factors may allow potentially unsafe products to reach consumers. FDA may not know when a company has made an unsupported or incorrect determination about whether an added dietary ingredient in a product is generally recognized as safe until after the product becomes available to consumers because companies are not required to notify FDA of their self-determinations. In addition, the boundary between dietary supplements and conventional foods containing dietary ingredients is not always clear, and some food products could be marketed as dietary supplements to circumvent the safety standard required for food additives. FDA has taken limited steps to educate consumers about dietary supplements, and studies and experts indicate that consumer understanding is lacking. While FDA has conducted some outreach, these initiatives have reached a relatively small proportion of dietary supplement consumers. Additionally, surveys and experts indicate that consumers are not well-informed about the safety and efficacy of dietary supplements and have difficulty interpreting labels on these products. Without a clear understanding of the safety, efficacy, and labeling of dietary supplements, consumers may be exposed to greater health risks associated with the uninformed use of these products.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: FDA officials told us they requested additional authority as part of the FDA Food Safety and Modernization Act of 2011 (FSMA) to modify the list of required food categories that FDA uses to identify firms by industry as part of existing registration requirements. In August 2012, FDA published draft guidance expanding the list of food categories required at registration to include dietary supplement categories that were previously optional. FDA issued final guidance in October 2012. Requiring dietary supplement firms to provide information on the products they sell has been part of multiple proposed legislative efforts but has not become law. Mandatory reporting of all adverse events for dietary supplement firms was proposed in S. 3002, the Dietary Supplement Safety Act of 2010, sponsored by Senators McCain and Dorgan, but did not pass the Senate. Although these efforts did not become law, the recommendation was closed because FDA did what GAO asked by requesting the necessary authorities.
Recommendation: To enhance FDA's oversight of dietary supplements and foods with added dietary ingredients, and to improve the information available to FDA for identifying safety concerns and better enable FDA to meet its responsibility to protect the public health, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services should direct the Commissioner of FDA to request authority to require dietary supplement companies to (1) identify themselves as a dietary supplement company as part of the existing registration requirements and update this information annually, (2) provide a list of all dietary supplement products they sell and a copy of the labels and update this information annually, and (3) report all adverse events related to dietary supplements.
Agency Affected: Department of Health and Human Services
Status: Open
Comments: In July 2011, FDA published draft guidance for industry on new dietary ingredient notifications and related issues. This draft guidance includes information on when a dietary ingredient is considered new, evidence of safety, and methods for ingredient identity. We are waiting for the draft guidance to become final to close the recommendation.
Recommendation: To enhance FDA's oversight of dietary supplements and foods with added dietary ingredients, and to better enable FDA to meet its responsibility to regulate dietary supplements that contain new dietary ingredients, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services should direct the Commissioner of FDA to issue guidance to clarify when an ingredient is considered a new dietary ingredient, the evidence needed to document the safety of new dietary ingredients, and appropriate methods for establishing ingredient identity.
Agency Affected: Department of Health and Human Services
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: FDA issued two final guidance documents in January 2014 that responded to this recommendation. Specifically, FDA issued "Guidance for Industry: Distinguishing Liquid Dietary Supplements from Beverages" and "Guidance for Industry: Considerations Regarding Substances Added to Foods, Including Beverages and Dietary Supplements." Both of these guidance documents clarify the boundary between conventional foods, such as beverages, and dietary supplements. The second guidance document also clarifies how products should be marketed when substances, such as dietary ingredients, are added.
Recommendation: To enhance FDA's oversight of dietary supplements and foods with added dietary ingredients, and to help ensure that companies follow the appropriate laws and regulations and to renew a recommendation we made in July 2000, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services should direct the Commissioner of FDA to provide guidance to industry to clarify when products should be marketed as either dietary supplements or conventional foods formulated with added dietary ingredients.
Agency Affected: Department of Health and Human Services
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: FDA has completed two of the three components of this recommendation: identifying mechanisms for educating consumers and implementing the mechanisms. Although it did not complete the third component--assessing the mechanisms--we closed the recommendation because FDA had done the majority of what was asked. Agency officials said that assessing the effectiveness of these mechanisms would take a sizable effort that they would have to consider in light of their other priorities.
Recommendation: To enhance FDA's oversight of dietary supplements and foods with added dietary ingredients, and to improve consumer understanding about dietary supplements and better leverage existing resources, we recommend that the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services should direct the Commissioner of FDA to coordinate with stakeholder groups involved in consumer outreach to (1) identify additional mechanisms--such as the recent WebMD partnership--for educating consumers about the safety, efficacy, and labeling of dietary supplements; (2) implement these mechanisms; and (3) assess their effectiveness.

What a fabulous location for a New Year house sit.
Barry and I were lucky enough to be able to take 10 glorious days off work after Christmas and were lucky enough to spend it at Mount Eliza, on the Mornington Peninsula.
What a fabulous location for a New Year house sit.
Barry and I were lucky enough to be able to take 10 glorious days off work after Christmas and were lucky enough to spend it at Mount Eliza, on the Mornington Peninsula.
Our trip to the Caribbean gave us one of our most luxurious house sitting assignments (as well as giving Claudia a couple of weeks' break from house guests). We love pets and we love house sitting so Claudia didn't hesitate to recommend us when her friends found themselves without care for their two puppies just days away from heading Northern Europe. After we met them, we didn't hesitate to accept.
Coastal and Geronimo are two of the best trained dogs we've looked after. Only a year old at the time and still puppies, they were very obedient. Their owners had put in a lot of hard work to make sure they waited patiently (with pleading puppy dog eyes) until they were given a command to eat. The puppies worked for their treats, lying down, shaking hands, etc. It was great fun.
Coastal, as a beautiful white Labrador, might have been the bigger of the two but it was Geronimo, the teeny Yorkshire Terrier, who ruled the roost. We don't think Coastal ever got to lie in his big bed.
One of the best things about house sitting is exploring neighbourhoods you might never have had a reason for ever venturing to. This can be especially true of your home city and is definitely true of Melbourne. Many of Melbourne's suburbs are like contained little villages with pubs, bars, restaurants, all within its small boundaries. There's often so much going on that it's hard to find a reason to get on a tram or train.
Barry and I found this happening to us while living with my sister in Hawthorn, one of Melbourne's trendy inner suburbs. The colder and darker days of autumn and winter were not particularly inspiring either.
Recently I was interviewed by www.housesittingguide.com. It's a great little resource about where to start with your house sitting and an overview of a number of membership sites. Click here to read the interview about one of our first and favourite house sits, in Brussels, and how Barry and I got the gig.
House sitting can be an excellent experience, allowing you to see parts of the world and get to know communities you might not otherwise have seen, as well as saving you accommodation costs, of course. Barry and I have been house sitting for a few years now and love staying in a home in different parts of the world and adopting cats and dogs (and fish and birds and ferrets, etc!). Recently I've been asked how I got into housesitting so thought it might be a good idea to write those experiences down.
Firstly, I'll debunk a myth – we have never been paid for housesitting services. About 20 years ago it was the norm to pay for a house sitter (s/he's saving kennel and cattery fees after all) but these days it's more about an exchange of services. You'll even sometimes be asked to contribute to household bills on longer assignments and you'll notice that housesitting websites tend to charge sitters more for their services than they do homeowners. But my thoughts on these issues are another story.
More often than not though, you'll find yourself the adopted owner of a cat or dog or two, or even a peacock. As we travel a lot, we don't have pets of our own and it's quite nice being able to adopt someone else's for a time, take a dog for a walk, cuddle a cat or talk to a bird.

Irish job cuts unlikely as Microsoft pays €23.3bn for LinkedIn
A $26.2bn (€23.3bn) takeover of LinkedIn by Microsoft will see the combined entity employ over 2,000 people in Ireland.
The two companies are unlikely to combine operations or shed jobs as a result of Microsoft's biggest ever acquisition, with both having just invested in major new buildings around Dublin.
Microsoft employs over 1,200 people in Ireland, while LinkedIn has 1,000 employees at its Dublin 4 offices.
The takeover deal, which values each LinkedIn member at €53, saw shares of Microsoft fall as investors show concern over such a large outlay of cash for an online networking site.
LinkedIn makes money through subscriptions and advertising revenue, although growth in its ad money fell to 20pc per year form 56pc per year a year ago.
"I have always had a great admiration for LinkedIn," Microsoft ceo Satya Nadella said in a video on Microsoft's website.
"I have been thinking about this for a long time." Microsoft will pay $196 per share in an all-cash transaction, resulting in a 49.5pc premium to LinkedIn's closing price the day before.
According to the two companies, LinkedIn will retain its "brand, culture and independence" and Jeff Weiner will remain ceo of the company.
The offer values LinkedIn about 91 times earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation.
That's the highest multiple of any takeover valued at more than $5bn this year, the data shows.
The deal is the largest under the tenure of Microsoft chief executive Satya Nadella, who has been reshaping Microsoft since taking over in 2014 to appeal more to business customers with cloud-based services and productivity tools.
LinkedIn isn't an obvious fit in the ongoing restructuring, but gives Microsoft the biggest global social network for professional that's used by job seekers, recruiters and human resources teams.
In a statement, Nadella said the acquisition could drive growth for LinkedIn as well as Microsoft's Office 365 and Dynamics services.
"Just as we have changed the way the world connects to opportunity, this relationship with Microsoft, and the combination of their cloud and LinkedIn's network, now gives us a chance to also change the way the world works," Linkedin chief executive Weiner said in the statement.

Have any of you ever analyzed it down to the dollar per hour you earned? My concern is I am making too much per hour to still be competitive. I am goign to be reworking my program this year for less fert as I think I had too much N in the program and my P was criticized so I am looking and removing the P from the applications. I also know costs are going way up this year so I was wondering if anyone else had analyzed how much they made per hour at fert and weed control. Of course you cannot account for equipment etc (but thats what the overhead which formulates your actual hourly rate), but I am using a backpack sprayer, lesco spreader, chevy silverado 1500 and thats it.

Christmas in Our Hearts
I just heard a song on the radio called "It's Christmas in Honolulu." It was a new song to me but one of the lyrics was especially meaningful. The song said, we might not have the snow and pictures of Christmas cards in Hawaii but "It is Christmas in Our Hearts." Coming from the Pacific Northwest, it feels so warm here and so unlike the Christmases of my past but it's Christmas in our hearts for sure.

ABS December 2016 trade figures delivers steady Christmas growth for retailers (3% growth year-on-year)
Monday 6 February 2017:The Australian Retailers Association (ARA) believes the December 2016 retail trade figures released today by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) illustrate a positive Christmas performance for retailers with a 3% growth year-on-year (seasonally adjusted).
ARA Executive Director, Russell Zimmerman, said this steady growth compliments the 3% year-on year growth in November 2016 as many families across Australia started purchasing their Christmas gifts early.
"This moderate growth in December sales is a positive sign for the industry and we remain hopeful that the ARA and Roy Morgan predicted pre-Christmas sales figure of $48.1 billion will be achieved once we finalise the numbers," Mr Zimmerman said.
Although December 2016 sales showed no increase over November 2016 trade figures, Mr Zimmerman said the industry's annual Christmas performance remains stable and the uplift in discretionary spend is exactly what the industry would expect.
As always, a number of categories saw a significant surge over the Christmas period. Clothing, Footwear and Personal Accessory Retailing lead the categories growing at 7.32% year-on-year, followed closely by Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic and Toiletry Goods (5.33% year-on-year).
"Even Newspaper and Book Retailing has shown a positive uplift from -6% during November 2016 trading, to an optimistic 0.91% growth due to many shoppers filling their Christmas stockings with popular book titles last year", Mr Zimmerman said.
"We've seen a slight decrease in takeaway food services, which usually demonstrates strong growth, though we've also seen cafés and restaurants up 2.4% as more shoppers spent their holidays out and about enjoying their time with families and friends."
The official closure of Masters during December took its toll on the Hardware category (1.76% year-on-year) down from 10.15% in November 2016 figures.
"We have seen an expected decrease in hardware figures temporarily, but now with reduced discounting and strong home price growth we can expect positive figures moving forward," Mr Zimmerman said.
Though Department Store figures are still negative (-2.94% year-on-year), they are showing signs of marginal improvement. The category is making a gradual recovery from a downturn attributed to the recent restructure of a number of prominent department store retailers.
The states showing a healthy year-on-year growth include Tasmania (4.40%), South Australia (3.92%), New South Wales (3.37%) and Queensland (3.42%). While Victoria (2.96%), Australian Capital Territory (2.83%), Northern Territory (1.49%) and Western Australia (0.85%) aren't leading the pack, they still demonstrated a positive growth over the December trading period.
In terms of online spend for December, the NAB Online Retail Sales Index indicates that e-commerce sales increased 10.4% year-on-year, with takeaway food and taking the lion's share of growth on a category basis at 5.5% year-on-year.
"With online retail making up 7% of all retail sales, it's double digit growth year-on-year is not surprising as e-commerce retailing is a key contributor to the retail industry as a whole," Mr Zimmerman said.
MONTHLY RETAIL GROWTH (November 2016 – December 2016 seasonally adjusted)
Household goods retailing (-2.3%), Other retailing (-0.2%), Food retailing (0.5%), Clothing, footwear and personal accessory retailing (1.4%), Cafes, restaurants and takeaway food services (0.2%) and Department stores (0.3%). Total sales (-0.1%).
Northern Territory (1.1%), South Australia (1.2%), Australian Capital Territory (-0.7%), Victoria (-0.4%), Tasmania (0.5%), Western Australia (0.6%), New South Wales (-0.3%) and Queensland (0.0%).
YEAR-ON-YEAR RETAIL GROWTH (December 2015 – December 2016 seasonally adjusted)
Household goods retailing (0.94%), Cafes, restaurants and takeaway food services (5.15%), Food retailing (2.89%), Clothing, footwear and personal accessory retailing (7.32%), Other retailing (4.27%) and Department stores (-2.94%). Total sales (3.02%).
New South Wales (3.37%), South Australia (3.93%), Tasmania (4.40%), Victoria (2.96%), Australian Capital Territory (2.83%), Western Australia (0.86%), Queensland (3.42%) and Northern Territory (1.50%).

Meet James. Yes, James Dyson. No - he's not having a shower - electrical appliances and water do not mix! I have found a creative way to store the vacuum cleaner! A small space with a door? We have a new cupboard! Yes - the shower!!!! Now that the boys are no longer living here, their old bathroom has become very handy for all sorts of uses, the latest being vacuum cleaner storage! No - it will not be a permanent arrangement - we do aim to have a workroom built, hopefully by Christmas next year. Then I'll have my house back again! Can't wait!
Meanwhile, the dust balls are still lurking beneath the clutter - despite the regular cleaning!
Bye for now,

ALWAYS try the local cuisine!
Little India Travel Blog› entry 6 of 13 › view all entries
I urge you to be adventurous and to always try the local cuisine where ever you go! :) You just don't know what you might be missing! :)
During my last 2 days in Singapore I had to venture out on my own since my friends had to go back to work. I decided to go see Little India, as I was curious about the name and what I might find there. It was close to lunchtime (and I skipped breakfast) so I decided to see what was inside this building called Tekka Centre. It's a short walk near the exit once you get off the MRT so it's easy to spot.
I was surprised to find lots of tables and stalls and stalls of food (their version of a food court)~ Indian, Thai-Indian, Malay...and the air was filled with the aroma of different spices! I got excited, as I love spices!
I gathered all the courage I could gather, not that I was scared of anything but I was in a different country with a different culture, and started going around checking out the different dishes.
I decided to go with this Muslim food stall beside a beverage store owned by a friendly Chinese-Singaporean. I found out later that he owned the Muslim food stall as well, since the cook called him "boss". I wanted something with bread and meat so I tried the Mutton Murtabak. I just wasn't sure from the picture if it was made of flour or egg, but of course I knew what mutton was... baa-aah :) I hoped it wasn't egg, because that's going to be A LOT of eggs, if ever (cholesterol!).
I watched eagerly as the cook prepared the dish (actually I saw him prepare 3 dishes). He seemed to do it with passion (he did all three dishes as if he wanted perfection) as he shaped the ball of flour making it thinner and thinner.
The Mutton Murtabak was great, it was huuuge, and was only $5. It was exactly the exotic taste I was looking for and the nameless dip made it even better and spicier. I think I finished 2 cokes because of the spicy dip! Haha! Aside from the food, I also enjoyed the conversation with the owner and had an interesting time observing the locals and their habits. :)
Don't ever miss out on an experience like that! :)

Tourist Attractions In Germany: Not Just Historical Places Or Nazi / German Concentration Camp Tours
When planning your next family vacation or personal getaway, few countries can claim to have the combination of historic, natural, and modern sights as Germany. Be it World War II history, Roman architecture, or anything in between, Germany is rich with history, and despite popular opinion, they have much more good history than bad.
The natural sights in Germany are just as powerfull to behold. In the late Spring, everywhere you go you will see fields of Rhaps, an agricultural product that has bright yellow flowers. There are also beautiful rivers and mountains with stone castles. What's not to love?
Below you will se some great cities in Germany for you to visit along with a description of the sights and experiences you can find there.
Cologne, Germany On The Rhine
Currently Germany's fourth largest city, Cologne is home for over 10 million citizens in and around the city, and is a major cultural center for the country. On the western side of the country, Cologne lies on the Rhine River and is home to over 30 museums, one of the largest churches in the world, and even Roman archaeological sites. There are many things to do in and around the city including historic tours, scenic boat rides, and wonderful shopping.
Cologne offers the opportunities of a metro area with the beauty and romance of a very old city on the Rhine. The Dom of Cologne, or the Cologne Cathedral, is one of the largest Catholic buildings in the world, towers over the Rhine, with its trademark twin spires being seen from all over the city. It is also Germany's most visited landmark with an average 20,000 visitors per day. This Cathedral is simply a must visit. When planning your trip, be sure to allow time to look at all of the architecture inside and a hike up the amazing staircases that go up the inside of the spires and offer a breathtaking view of the city and the river.
The city also offers a great place for cyclists and pedestrians for both exercise and shopping alike. Also, commuting to other nearby cities is simple with the city and area's elaborate system of trains.
Weimar, Germany's Cultural Center
When planning any trip to Germany, you must visit one of the old cultural cities of the old East Germany. Long held as the cultural center of Germany, Weimar has a storied history, both good and bad. It was selected by the European Council of Ministers as the European Capital of Culture in 1999. The city was founded in 899 AD and currently has around 70,000 citizens. The city itself lies just east of the old East Germany-West Germany border near Leipzig. Weimar has been home to historic figures like musicians Franz Liszt, Richard Wagner, and Johann Sebastian Bach, Martin Luther, artist Henry van de Velde, lens maker Carl Zeiss, writer Friedrich Schiller, and writer and physicist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
In Weimar you will find plenty of shopping, including a great outdoor market area in one of the city squares, where you can find amazing chocolates, fruits and vegetables, and some of the most beautiful pottery and china in the world. Around town there are many historical sites and museums including a short drive to Buchenwald, a Nazi concentration camp from WWII. Also, a short drive from Weimar is the city of Eisenach which is home to Wartsburg Castle. This is where Martin Luther translated the New Testament of the Bible after beginning the Protestant Reformation.
Trier, German Vacation Meets Roman Ruins
From the cultural center of Germany we go to the oldest city of Germany. Although Trier recognizes its founding as 16 BC as a Roman seat of power in the area of Gaul, some historians believe the town actually was founded by an Assyrian prince as much as 2000 years earlier. Either way the city holds much history. The city lies on the Moselle River in the far southwest of Germany, near the border with Luxembourg.
This area, as well as having much history, is a very rich wine area. You can take tours on the river, experience shopping downtown, or visit many museums and historical sites. The city is also a short drive from Luxembourg, so you can get two countries for the price of one. Trier was the home of many amazing people including Saint Ambrose and Helena (mother of Constantine the Great).
One place you absolutely must visit is the Roman Colosseum in Trier. It is made with dirt stands and a sand floor with cages beneath, similar to the one in Rome. The area it is located in is filled with many Roman archaealogical sites. Other places to visit are the Porta Negra, the Cathedral of Trier, and the Palace of Trier.

hello all does any body no if the a4 b6 has had a recall for coil packs?
Yup is has, there is a mega thread on this section all about it. Call your dealer, give them your reg and they will tell you if your car qualifies.
I had already replaced 2 coil packs due to misfire, this was approx 2 years ago, when i took mine to audi for them to check the coils they said all 4 were of the new part numbers (2 must have been done before i bought it). They happily gave me 2 new ones for the ones i had replaced, they could not offer a refund, but i now have 2 new spare coils, just in case!!

Brad - Narrate your own material or don't bother
Brad Sugars who is a great pesenter should read his own material. The narrator here had no understanding or interest in the topic.
Sound marketing advice.
Brad Sugars
Totally ruined by narrator
I was really excited to have a brad sugars audiobook. Won't bother again unless the author reads it. The difference is massive when the author can communicate their passion into the material.
- James Elliott
Skip audio, Get the book instead
The content is good, but not suited to audio. I found myself wanting to highlight, underline, re-do, check and compare the equations he was describing, but they got away from me too fast. Certainly no good while driving.
I'm looking for "Good to Great" or Michael Porters "Five Forces". Hoping the latter isn't like this one and needs to be paper based. Best I read the other reviews!
The narration was fine, certainly not annoying.
Buy the paper book!

Kia has introduced the new Niro urban-lifestyle concept at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show. This concept is a potential competitor at the B-segment with its style and sturdiness as well as its playful looks that makes it ideal for city dwellers. The concept was created due to Kia's desire to offer new compact-car options for the demanding driver.
The concept has features that are rarely found in smaller cars. Kia's Frankfurt Design Studio in Europe developed the concept in consideration of what Europeans expect. Niro provides a nearly counter-4x4 figure to the smaller B-segment. Niro is muscular and tough and is relatively smaller. It is built on an all-new platform that will serve as the basis of upcoming B-segment products from Kia.
It has a striking two-tone exterior appearance that's enhanced by its wheel-at-each-corner stance. While the design team intended it to be muscular, it has measurements (4,185cm overall length, 1,850cm width and 1,558cm height) that positions it in the city-car range. Its exterior has a dark "Nightfall" finish that is beautifully offset by a brushed, stainless steel roof.
The entire cabin uses this two-finish design, giving Niro a technological edge. The car is fitted with running-board type "blades" above the lower side-sills. This is complemented by similar creases in the front and rear lower valances. In keeping with the car's chunky outline, it has a 2,590cm wheelbase and 1,630cm track to make sure that it's solidly planted on the road and offers a lot of internal space.
In addition, the concept features the signature "tiger-nose" grille outline, front and rear towing hooks, and bonnet-located air outlet. Several other elements are emphasized with the use of anodised "Limelight" aluminium. The Niro has a low cabin glasshouse and an intentionally angled front valance, making it appear assertive and purposeful.
Furthermore, the front valance's air vent holes are asymmetrically arranged, similar to those on the Provo concept in Geneva. Its bold front appearance is highlighted by an ice-cube light arrangement with dip and main beam lights, strip daytime running lights around the edge of the lighting housing and also built-in quartered spot lights.
It is fitted with a rearward-facing video camera. What's interesting is that a portion of the rear light cluster swings up as a necessary element of the hatch architecture so that the cargo space is properly lighted. So then, the secondary section of the cluster can guarantee safety by allowing road users to see the car even in the dark. Niro is powered by a version of Kia's turbocharged 1.6-litre 'Gamma' engine, producing 160ps. Its engine and seven-speed, dual-clutch transmission drive just the front wheels but an electric-hybrid system, which gets its power from regenerative braking, offers up to 45ps to the rear wheels when additional grip is needed due to certain road conditions.

I ordered 4 of these chairs over the phone for my new kitchen bar in 2009.I'm so happy with them I now want one for my sewing room. We play cards games on these chairs for hours, then eat and start again. They never hit the wood , only the cloth does top and bottom. Wonderful!!!

There's a lot of bad news being thrown at the market right now. Most of it is of the garden variety, those constant fixtures in the everpresent wall-of-worry. Euroskeptics are perhaps the loudest of the lot right now. This ilk is framing a much different narrative for Europe than objectively exists, but they've managed to talk-down European markets — not to mention the rest of the world. 'Uncertainty is the mother of opportunity' (or something like that), and there's a particularly attractive entry point in European equities right now. We are buying Europe ($HEDJ)…

The first thing we had to grill was burgers, because it's grilled burgers. This is something we've really been missing because it's hard to make a decent burger on the stove-top. After that I figured it was time to experiment while there was still some summer left to enjoy. First up....some grilled mushrooms. They were amazing! We couldn't get enough of them. If these are a taste of what grilling veggies can be like, I'm going to be grilling all the veggies from now on.
Grilled Marinated Mushrooms
16 oz. Baby Bella or button mushrooms
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tbls. lemon juice
1 tsp. dried parsley
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
2 garlic clove, minced
2 tbls. balsamic vinegar
10 bamboo or metal skewers
If using bamboo skewers, place skewers into a baking dish and cover with water. It's important to soak the skewers for at least 30 minutes or they will burn on the grill.
In a large ziplock bag, mix together all ingredients except mushrooms.
Rinse mushrooms gently and pat dry. Cut each mushroom in half, so each piece has half of the mushroom stem.
Place the mushroom halves into the marinade bag and shake until all of the mushrooms are evenly coated.
Refrigerate and marinate for 30-45 minutes.
Preheat your grill to about 300˚F
Skewer the mushrooms onto the skewers being careful to not crack or break the mushrooms.
Place the skewered mushrooms on the hot grill for about 3 minutes per side, making sure the mushrooms do not burn or stick to the grill. Remove from the grill; cover to keep them warm until ready to serve.

Best Friend Quotes, Sayings for BFFs
Best friends are the people who love you, when you forget to love yourself.
It's the friends you call at 4am that matter.
Boys are whenever
Friends are forever
when worst comes to worst
my girls always come first.
BEST FRIENDS are better then BOYFRIENDS!
Best friends are people who are close enough to hear you breathe, but only far away enough to catch you when you fall.
You will never know a true friend until you are in trouble. Your best friend will stand by you no matter what.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I'll never find a friend,
As amazing as you.
A friend is someone who would ask you if your okay when you fall. A best friend is someone who would laugh at you but at the same time feel your pain..because your best friend is always a part of you.
Friends sleep over once or twice on the weekends but best friends come over to your house monday after school with a suitcase and say I am home did ya miss me.
When people don't laugh at our jokes my friends and I don't think of it as a 'You had to be there kind of thing' but more of a 'You have to be mentally retarded like us' thing.
A friend would call you a retard but a true friend would call you one and act like one with you.
I'm surrounded by angels…but I call them my best friends.
Don't walk in front of me…I may not follow,
Don't walk behind me…I may not lead,
Just walk beside me…and be my friend.
Best friends are sisters that aren't related.
The person you would like to watch a movie with is your best buddy.
Bff's are always there for you
Bff's never forget about a friend
A real bff will always love you.
A true friend is someone who will catch you if you fall, and lend a hand if you need it. They won't laugh at you for your flaws but love you for who you really are inside.
Best friends are like the white cream in an Oreo, always there to share in life's sweetest and best parts.
True friends are never separated by time or distance.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, more than one in five of us spent more than we planned to in the run up to Christmas, according to research by Confused.com.
What's more, an overdose of merriment has led to many of us racking up debt on our credit cards.
More than a quarter of people say they spent more money on their credit cards during December than any other month of the year.
On average, Brits overspent on their plastic by an average of £543 during the festive season, while more than one in 10 cardholders believed they overspent by more than £1,000.
With many people now paying interest on their new, or larger, credit card balances, the new year is a common time for many people to look for a 0% balance transfer deal.
This type of credit card allows you to move money from one credit card to another, potentially avoiding costly interest payments.
We've crunched the numbers and worked out the exact date and time when a surge in the number of credit card balance transfers is expected.
This happens to be this Tuesday (12 January) between 8pm and 9pm.
This is a day we've labelled with the not-so-catchy-title "balance transfer Tuesday".
Our research shows nearly one in 10 card holders think they'll take between six months to a year to pay off the credit card debts they've built up in the run-up to Christmas.
To show you how much you could save by switching your balance to a credit card offering 0% interest, take the following example:
If you've currently got £1,000 on your credit card and you're being charged 17.9% interest per year - a fairly typical rate - you'll have paid £155.41 in interest in 12 months' time.
If you have a balance of £2,000 you'll pay £310.82 unless you switch cards.
So there you go, it may well be worth considering switching cards. But before you apply there are a few things worth knowing:
Work out which 0% deal suits you best - You can find the best card for you by working out how long you need to pay off your existing credit card balance – this will give you an idea of the length of the 0% period you'll need. If you don't need a long time to pay off your debt, you may want to look at cards with shorter 0% periods as they may have lower transfer fees.
Check your likelihood of acceptance - Interest-free balance transfer cards are generally aimed at customers with a good credit rating. If you're worried about your credit rating, you can use this tool to check your likelihood of acceptance for a credit card before you apply.
Check card providers carefully - Some credit card providers won't let you transfer your debt to them if you already own a card with that same provider. For example, if you own an AA credit card you won't be able to switch to, say, a Post Office credit card as both are run by the Bank of Ireland.
Don't miss repayments - If you fail to make at least the minimum payment every month you may lose your 0% introductory deal, so you'll need to be confident you can keep up the minimum payments at the very least.
Aim to repay your debt before the 0% period ends - After an introductory 0% period runs out you'll start to be charged interest at the normal rate on any balance left on your credit card. So you should ideally aim to pay off your debt by then, or switch to another card.

Top 10 Awesome things in Taiwan that you probably didn't know
It has been a couple of months since I left Taiwan. Taiwan is like a small thread on the world map but often ignored by Western travelers. However, Taiwan is still surely a cool place with its own instinct scent of charm. I have a strong passion for finding such hidden gems inside an unfamiliar world and integrating into the local culture with getting surrounded by just the locals. My desire just worked when I arrived in Taiwan. I was in the middle of just the Taiwanese flocks in not only downtown Taipei of all the touristic destinations but also multiple spots off the tourist trail. All the experience lets me come up with this article to puzzle up the pieces of my Taiwan trip memory. Just a piece of my writing saved to be shared! Here are the TEN interesting things I took notice of while having such great days in this nice land.

Helmet tip to my NY goomba-ette, Helen
Some people are so hate-filled, they would even attack Blessed Teresa. Pretty sad, 'eh?
Here's some of an e-mail my buddy Helen sent to me - Emphasis mine.
From: Brian Burch - CatholicVoteAction.org
Sent: Wed, May 5, 2010 3:55 pm
Subject: Confirmed
Dear Friend of CatholicVote,
I have wonderful news. The Mother Teresa stamp is coming! Over 138,000 friends of CatholicVote.org joined together to defend the stamp to honor Mother Teresa. And the Postal Service took notice.
Roy Betts, a spokesman for the Postal Service, told CatholicVote.org yesterday:
Wow. Launching the stamp at a church. The anti-religion radicals are going to go wild!
When the stamp was first announced, a group called the Freedom from Religion Foundation began spreading lies about Blessed Mother Teresa, accusing this holy nun of having a 'darker side,' and calling her a 'polarizing Roman Catholic figurehead.'
Mother Teresa gave a pro-life speech when she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. This radical group called her speech a "disturbing, befrogged religious rant." That's why we swung into action to "Stamp Out Bigotry!"
Thank you for signing our petition. It truly made a difference. If your friends or family would like to add their names in support of the Mother Teresa stamp and against those who attack this holy nun, tell them to visit http://www.StampOutBigotry.com/ .
Too often only one side of this debate is heard. This time the Post Office heard from us. A separate spokesperson for USPS even told a reporter that our efforts were appreciated.
You would think attacking Mother Teresa would be off limits. But in our world, respect and decency can be discarded so long as you're bashing Christianity. A small but vocal segment of our country will stop at nothing to cut down the role of religion in our public life.
Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us.
Brian Burch

What's do you think about AC/DC?
What's do you think about AC/DC?
AC/DC, there a great band, i used to love the song back in black and the song Highway To Hell, after a while i sort of went off them, but i still don't mind them, great band and created great rock history.
Let There Be Rock guys
Yes! I LOVE ACDC! They're one of my favorite classic rock bands. True Legends! I've always loved them, even when I was a little kid, and I grew up with that music from my parents, so I know it all
Yes me to. But my parent did'nt listened it. I think is the best hard rock group and they have the best rock'n'roll spirit. by
I like their minimalist straight rock. I couldn't listen to a whole album of it but I like the occasional ACDC song. Their style is very driven but linear.
i dont like much AC/DC.
AC/DC definitely rocks!
I prefer the Brian Johnson stuff over the Bon Scott stuff because it sounds like there's a lot more enthusiasm in the way Brian Johnson sings and there's more of an arena rock feel to it.
My personal favorites are
Back in Black
You Shook Me All Night Long
It's a Long Way to the Top
No personaly i prefer bon scott songs because it's more like the old rock 'n'roll!
My favorite songs are:
-Let there be rock
-Back in black
You've been *dum dum dum* THUNDERSTRUCK.
They're awesome.
I love AC/DC
cept that one song about balls 0.o
lol I know only this one... But it's good !
Albums I have:
'74 Jailbreak
AC/DC Live (Discs 1 & 2)
Back In Black
Blow Up Your Video
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
For Those About to Rock
High Voltage
Highway to Hell
Let There Be Rock
The Razor's Edge
Who Made Who
As a matter of fact I am listening to Dirty Deeds (Live) right now.
Can't say I prefer Brian Johnson to Bon Scott or vice versa, they're both great in their own ways.
great collection!! But on the p2p you can have the discography(all albums) that's why i have all. th ebest album ,i think, it's back in black.
Well i got 16 albums of them, so i can say i like them... wouldn't you?
There are better bands, but AC/DC is good, realy good
A most excellent band. I really enjoy all of their songs, I don't really think they wrote a bad one. However, this is not something that I would listen to for like one hour a day, but a song of thiers a day keeps me happy.
very legal their sound
mainly black in black
I do like
I like very much, I began listening to them since I was nine years old.
They are my favorite Rock Band, although I prefer listening to trance music now, I put the old AC/DC records on my turntables very often.
In the 80s I had the chance to visit two of their gigs in germany. Singer there was Brian Jhonson, but I prefer the songs with Bon Scott, specially Bad Boy Boogie and the best album If You Want Blood... You`ve Got It (live).
I`m disappointed, that I never had the chance to see Bon live. It was so awful that he died.
So keep on rockin`
The brothers Malcolm (*1953) and Angus Young (*1959) moved from Glasgow to Australia, more precisely to Sydney, in 1963. Their older brother George was a co-founder of the Easybeats and gave them the feeling for rock music and guitar-playing. He helped them found AC/DC in 1973. They were influenced by Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones. Born in Scotland in 1946, Ron Scott took over the drums in March 1974. Soon, they were looking for new members, especially a singer. Bon Scott surprisingly managed to impose himself as their lead vocalist. Philipp Rudd (born in 1954 as Philipp Witschke), drums, joined them as well as bassist Mark Evans (*1956).
They rapidly became an Australian club attraction and their albums High Voltage and Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap as well as their single TNT came on the market. Their sound, based on tough Rhythm & Blues was first to be heard in Europe in 1976. AC/DC had their commercial breakthrough with the album Let There Be Rock (UK charts number 2 in 1977. Between 1979 and 1981, their albums reached platinum several times in the USA. They sold several million copies of the album Highway To Hell (1979), USA number 22, UK number 10. Their singles Rock 'n' Roll Ain't Noise Pollution, Let's Get It Up and For Those About To Rock rose in the British charts up to numbers 18, 14 and 13 respectively.
In February 1980, their singer Bon Scott was found dead in his car (he had a drinking problem). Brian Johnson, a former singer in the teenie-band Geordie joined them. In April and May 1980, AC/DC recorded the album Back in Black. They sold over 12 million copies of it worldwide (number 3 in UK, 6 in the USA).
Up to the year 2000, AC/DC have sold about 85 million albums worldwide. Their last album Ballbreaker (1995) was a (minor) success too. The singles Hard As A Rock and Hail Caesar rose to numbers 33 and 56 in UK. Their new album Stiff Upper Lip (2000) is their first studio album in more than four years. Today, the band is composed by Brian Johnson, vocals, Angus Young, guitar, Cliff Williams, bass, Malcolm Young, guitar and Phil Rudd, drums. They still rock hard and loud, with their distinctive mix of rhythm & blues and rock 'n' roll. Stiff Upper Lip is a solid album, but as often with AC/DC, most of the songs sound more or less the same. Their fans will still like most of the tracks. With Meltdown, House of Jazz, Give It Up, Safe in New York City and the title song Stiff Upper Lip, almost half the album is above average, on the level of the best songs from Ballbreaker.
I absolutely, positively LOVE ACDC, i have like every song and can play a few of them
Simply one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Inspired and moving, as the critics would say. I think AC/DC embodied classic rock along with the other greats like Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, although they had different styles.
a fantastic classic band. thier guitar sound infulenced so many and was the inspiration to many presents in mutli-effects.... but siriously, no matter how silly their lyricss are, the music sound makes up for it.
yeah! i also really like acdc, its one of the greatest rock-bands ever!!!
ACDC ******' rocks!
There old but awesome i've not listened to them much just Bron to be wild and back in black
great band probably their best song was back in black that kicks ass

As I mentioned this morning, George Osborne has talked about domicile and changing the rules. Based on reports at that time I thought has doing a substitution of a new flat tax for those non-domiciled. I was not alone. Several others thought the same, but it's now clear he meant something different.
What he seems to be saying is:
Osborne will this morning announce that all non-doms would pay a steep, once-a-year charge of £25,000 for the privilege of belonging to the non-dom club. That would be on top of any tax they already pay to the Exchequer on that portion of their global income classified as UK earnings.
And reports say his calculations work like this:
How much additional revenue for the Exchequer would that raise? Well official figures show that in 2005 there were 112,000 non-doms. And accountants believe that, thanks to the City boom, this may have risen to 200,000. If some non-doms become doms or flee these shores rather than pay the 25 grand membership fee, the take from the new levy could be about £3bn (and to reiterate, that's additional to the £3bn or so they already pay).
The £3 billion figure is from the Treasury. I quote it in my own research on this issue, here. But after that everything else Osborne says is wild guesswork, rather than the reasoned analysis I reported.
First of all there's no way of knowing if there are 200,000 non doms. It's pretty wildfire inflation if true.
Second, if ( as I assume) the income of those who claim non-dom status is likely to be over £100,000 then as my research shows 73% of them will have income of between £100,000 and £200,000 and they will pay tax of, on average, £41,500 if taxed on their world wide income. That's £14,700 more than they pay on average at present. So paying to join the non-dom club appears illogical for this group. Better to pay tax on worldwide income you'd think.
Now this group will largely be income earners. They'll mainly work in the City – we know that's true. And these are the people who supposedly 'add value' to our economy by being here. Maybe they do. But they're going to be charged a lot more for the chance of doing so, and on a highly discriminatory basis. Are they going to feel fed up as a result and leave? Well, if anyone is going to do so as a result of this rule change they are. Let's assume (as my research did) that 20% of all non-doms leave. As I'll note below, only this group will have incentive to do so under Osborne's rule so this group will suffer a loss of at least 28,000 in number on the assumptions I used.
Now let's do the calculations. 73% of 112,000 (or 82,000) will pay £14,700 more, i.e. about £1.21 billion more. On the other hand 28,000 of those now paying £41,500 on average each will leave. That's £1.16 billion lost.
As for those 30,000 non doms earning more than £200,000, their average earnings would, if their income distribution were the same as domiciled people, be £444,000 and their average tax bill would be about £155,000 if subject to tax on their world wide income. These people are not wage earners, by and large. The vast majority of their income could be booked offshore.
Now note that what Osborne said that he would ask no questions about the offshore income of these people – they would know he said that such issues were beyond enquiry. The implication is obvious. The remittance rule would have to go – that follows from what he said or he could not deliver the promise. So these people will now effectively pay £25,000 each. That's a loss of £54 million form now.
So, we have £1.21 billion gain less a £1.16 billion loss and a £0.05 billion loss – which happens to come to NOTHING.
In other words Osborne will raise not one bean from his change in the rules to pay for Inheritance Tax. But, the mega wealthy who support the Tory party will be much better off and beyond enquiry as to their wealth, those who work for a living here will be worse off and will quit the UK in disgust at being treated in discriminatory fashion, the average UK person will know the rich can now but their way out of taxes and the UK will gain not one iota. Indeed, because the remittance rule will go expect large numbers of non-doms to contract from offshore companies and just see their tax yield fall is my forecast.
It still adds up to a barmy tax policy.
And an unjust one.
My original comments stand.
