Two Capital Region projects get state approval
ALBANY — Empire State Develop ment's Board of Directors has approved funding totaling $24,928,640, including money for two Capital Region projects.
The board approved a $1 million Regional Council Capital Fund grant for The Research Foundation for The State University of New York. The project includes the establishment of the Biotechnology Training Program at University of Albany's East Campus in Rensselaer.
The program will develop a pipeline of trained individuals with technical competences and certifications in the operation of sophisticated calibration equipment used by biotech and other technology-oriented companies.
The grant will be used to purchase state-of-the-art equipment and machinery, with all equipment to be rolled-out by June to engage and inform biotechnology companies and research institutions throughout the region and statewide. Training will begin in the fall semester. Last year, the Capital Region Economic Development Council identified this as a priority project.
The board also approved an Innovation Economy Matching Grant totaling $997,688 for the GE Global Research Center in Schenectady County.
GE Global Research is working to develop a new high-density energy storage system that combines the best properties of a fuel cell and a flow battery. The project includes research at the General Electric led Department of Energy Center for Electrocatalysis, Transport Phenomena, and Materials for Innovative Energy Storage to establish the scientific basis to enable a safe and practical electrical energy storage and delivery system using the electro(de)hydrogenation of organic liquid carriers. The concept will reduce system weight, volume and complexity and will be significantly safer because it will not involve any gaseous hydrogen at any stage.
GE will use the grant to offset project costs incurred to execute the project. The main objective of the research and work is to evaluate the use of organic compounds with the heteroatom-hydrogen bond in the proposed fuel cell/flow batter combination for electrochemical energy storage. Total cost of this project is $13,477,688.

Three Las Cruces Homes Go Solar in One Week
By Evan Woodward
Las Cruces, NM – Last week three homes in the Las Cruces area had photovoltaic solar energy panels installed on their roofs. These systems will provide homeowners with electricity to power their own needs, and are grid-tied meaning excess energy is sent back into El Paso Electrics grid. As KRWG's Evan Woodward reports, the work was done by a company new to Las Cruces called Positive Energy, who has become the only solar photovoltaic business in the area.

Liberal or conservative; gay or straight; adventurous or cautious: How do genes influence our behavior and predispositions? Scientific American's Christine Gorman explains why the answer to this question is more complex than it first appears.
Interesting, but does this disprove that there is a significant inherited component to some aspects of behaviour?

Section: Kits Merryman
Merryman: Tacoma Housing Authority busting cycle of failure on Hilltop
Kathleen Merryman
Tacoma Housing Authority is turning its resources, and innovations, back to Hilltop.
Two years after it did not get U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Hope VI financing to tear down whats left of the decrepit Hillside Terrace apartments, it has gathered a mix of public and private money to start the job between 25th and 27th streets, Yakima Avenue and G Street.
A year into an innovative partnership with the Tacoma School District to reduce student turnover at McCarver Elementary, it is showing progress that last week drew a visit from Maurice Jones, deputy secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Region X HUD director Mary McBride.
When the secretary asked to see a place of best practices and innovative ideas, where they are not shy about talking about challenges, it was, hands down, Tacoma, McBride said.
Tacomas housing authority has made a reputation as an innovative, money-saving housing authority, heavy on accountability, expert at guiding residents toward independence, she said.
That has earned it standing as one of about 30 Moving to Work housing authorities out of some 3,400 in the nation. Its a special standing THA shares with sister agencies in Seattle, Portland, King County and Vancouver. Though it does not bring in more money, it does make the money it gets more flexible, with HUD approval.
Instead of doing annual reviews of seniors on fixed incomes, for example, the housing authority can do the expensive and intrusive paperwork every three years. It can streamline its schedule of annual inspections of private property rented with Section 8 vouchers.
Both free up money for better uses, like the McCarver project, designed not just to house families, but to teach and urge them to support themselves.
At McCarver, student turnover was 110 percent because families became homeless. The new program offers parents a rental voucher that allows them to stay housed as long as their children go to McCarver, and as long as they are active participants in their childs school life. They get the kids to school on time, take parenting classes, see counselors and work on their own education and job skills.
According to an evaluation by Geo Education & Research, This year there have been fewer suspensions, children are coming to school more, parent engagement has increased significantly, and children are starting to show academic and behavioral progress, the report read.
If the track continues, kids will be getting the grades and skills they need to succeed, and parents will find jobs, busting the cycle of failure.
Thats the idea behind the new Hillside Terrace development, too.
Built in the late 1960s as a private venture, the apartments were poorly designed, with rooms on narrow multiple levels. The materials, from siding to asbestos, have failed. Theres one big clump of them from 25th and 27th streets and a smaller one on the 1800 block between South Yakima and G streets.
Keeping them habitable is like repairing a Yugo expensive and fruitless. Late in 2009, THA applied for a Hope VI grant to tear them down and build efficient, lasting and dense housing. It incorporated preschool education for the kids and job training for the adults into the resources.
It did not get that grant for housing, but it did get financing for the resources center. It has built a job-training partnership with Goodwill, just across 27th Street. Now the housing authority has pulled together the financing to start on the apartments.
It will relocate all the residents by Halloween. Families with kids will move first, so they wont have to switch schools after classes start.
It will have the whole mess torn down by Christmas, and construction will start with the new year. The first phase should be done in a year and should cost about $21.6 million, said Michael Mirra, executive director of the Housing Authority.
The cost for all three phases, including the 1800 block, is probably about $45 million, he said of the mix of tax credits, grants, and housing trust fund money.
When its done, the project will have about 200 apartments, up from 104, and it will have more usable open space.
Its a hefty investment. If it works as planned, and families learn and earn independence and leave in a few years, it will be worth it.

We may be able to change your policy for Emergency Boiler Cover and Boiler & Central Heating Cover depending on your new boiler, but you may be asked to take out a new 12 month contract.
I am a tenant, can I take out Home Emergency Response?
Yes, you can. Usually a landlord takes care of emergency repairs, but you can get cover if you rent property from a private landlord. You'll be asked to confirm that your landlord is happy for us to carry out work at their property when you make a claim.
We are unable to cover social or housing association tenants.
Please call us on 0800 197 4180 to buy cover for the property you're renting.
I am a landlord. Can I take out Home Emergency Response?
Yes. Home Emergency Response is now available for your residence and up to two rental properties.
How many properties does a Home Emergency Response policy cover?
One. Each property requires its own Home Emergency Response policy.
Does Home Emergency Response include a Gas Safety record?
No. A Gas Safety Record (CP12) should be obtained via an annual check, completed by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
What are my legal duties in relation to gas safety as a landlord?
As a landlord, you should ensure gas appliances are serviced in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. If these are not available, it is recommended that they are serviced annually – unless advised otherwise – by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
Annual safety checks should be carried out on each gas appliance and flue. Before any new lease starts, make sure that these annual checks have been made within one year before the start of the lease.
All installation, maintenance and safety checks must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer, and a record of each safety check kept for at least two years.
Copies of the latest safety check record (CP12) should be given to existing tenants within 28 days of the check being completed, or, to new tenants before they move in.
What types of boiler do you cover?
Emergency Boiler Cover
Boiler & Central Heating Cover
Covers gas boilers of any age as long as essential working parts are available from our supplier.
Emergency Boiler Cover and Boiler & Central Heating Cover is not available for:
How do I find out the output of my boiler?
You should be able to find this in the manual the manufacturer gave you. If you can't find it or haven't got the manual, please contact the manufacturer to check.
My combination boiler is 9 years old, can I get cover for it?
Emergency Boiler Cover
Yes, we'll cover your boiler for the full year if it's not too old at the start of the cover year. Please call us about upgrading to Boiler & Central Heating cover when you renew your cover.
We can cover combination or condensing boilers which are less than 10 years old, so your boiler would be covered for the year if it is 9 years old at the start of your policy.
Boiler & Central Heating Cover
Covers gas boilers of any age as long as essential working parts are available from our supplier.
Is my boiler covered in the summer?
Yes, you get boiler cover for a full 12 month period without any exceptions.
How many boiler breakdown claims can I make?
Emergency Boiler Cover
You can make up to 4 claims under Emergency Boiler Cover where you boiler suffers a 'complete failure', where you are left without hot water, heating or both.
Boiler & Central Heating Cover
There is no limit on the number of claims you can make for a boiler breakdown.
What's the difference between Emergency Boiler Cover and Boiler & Central Heating Cover?
Emergency Boiler Cover provides cover for emergency repairs following a sudden and unexpected failure of your gas boiler which leaves you without hot water, heating or both. Your gas boiler and heating controls are covered.
Boiler & Central Heating Cover provides the same emergency cover as Emergency Boiler Cover but cover is extended to include radiators and the pipework connecting components of your central heating system. Intermittent faults, radiator failures and water or gas leaks from the system are covered.
How do I arrange a boiler service?
We'll call you to arrange a date for your boiler service. We'll give you a 2-hour time slot for the engineer's arrival. Our usual servicing hours are 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday.
Can I move my boiler service to a different date?
Yes, if you give us more than 24 hours notice, you can rearrange the appointment without charge. If you rearrange the appointment within 24 hours of the appointment we may charge an attendance fee of £60, including VAT.
Will I get a boiler safety certificate?
If your boiler passes the safety inspection element of the service, you will be provided with a checklist as a record of the work that has been carried out on your main heating system.
What happens if my boiler fails the safety inspection?
An initial boiler inspection is carried out if you choose Emergency Boiler Cover or Boiler & Central Heating Cover. If your system fails the inspection the engineer will explain any work that needs to be done to fix existing problems before we can service your boiler.
Any work to fix existing problems is not covered by your policy, so you are responsible for the cost of any work that's required. This work must be carried out within 14 days from the date of the inspection for us to be able to service your boiler.
If you decide that you would like us to fix existing problems for you we can tell you how much it would cost. You also have the option of getting the problems fixed by your own engineer.
You can cancel your policy if you don't want to get the existing problems fixed. We'll give you back any money you've already paid.

Goran Tresic, London
You can probably imagine my horror this week when I realised my heating wasn't working.
Then, while drinking a cup of tea to keep warm, John Cleese came on the television to tell me to call the AA.
I called and an engineer was with me within two hours. He found the problem and needed to order a part. Within an hour of leaving me, his office called to say the part would be with me the next day and could they come and fit it.
So often people are fast to moan when things go wrong, but not always so fast to say when things go well. I for one will be making sure everyone knows about the service I have had from the AA.
Mike Elderton, Derby
Very pleased with the service, no problems at all, very impressed with the AA as a company.

Traditional and Improved Use of Biomass for Energy in Africa
Traditional biomass energy systems are widely used in Africa, mainly because of the low cost and lack of available alternatives in rural areas. Projections indicate that the (relative) contribution of traditional bioenergy will decrease, but that the total use of traditional biomass energy systems will increase during the coming decades. The efficiencies of woodfuel (firewood and charcoal) energy systems are usually low and the use of these systems has serious negative consequences, such as indoor air pollution and related health effects, deforestation and the labour intensive and sometimes dangerous process of firewood collection.
Improvements in stoves, charcoal production efficiency and switching fuels can increase the efficiency by several tens of percent points and thereby reduce the demand for labour for the collection of firewood and the costs. Other advantages of improved traditional bioenergy systems are reduced greenhouse gas emissions, reduced indoor air pollution and reduced deforestation. Various initiatives have been successful in implementing the use of improved household stoves, although the results suggest that the success of improved traditional biomass systems depends on the local conditions and socio-economic impacts of these systems.

Why I allow butter on a diary-free diet
7 comments:
- heather said...
ahh! in praise of butter! thanks so much for this article. now i don't have to feel too guilty when enjoying it. :)
- Hans Keer said...
Helas, I cannot agree. It's like with being pregnant; You are 100% pregnant or you are not pregnant. The same goes for diet; You can only be 100% intolerant. Even a little bit of protein can harm you.
- The HealthNOW Doctors said...
Hello Hans,
I understand your sentiments. Certainly when it comes to gluten it's 100%. Remember that I also mentioned ghee and clarified butter as options, and they do fit the 100% category.
To your good health,
Dr Vikki - 4:24 PM
- DusanV said...
Was wondering about this for a long time. Thxs for clearing things up.
One more question to this perhaps... how is it with lactose in butter? - 11:43 AM
- The HealthNOW Doctors said...
Dear DusanV,
Milk contains about 5% lactose and butter contain 0.1% - a very minute amount. It is considered to be too small too cause a problem for those who are lactose intolerant though I have no personal research to cite on this point.
Clarified butter or ghee, has all the milk solids removed and therefore it is felt that only minute amounts of lactose are present and unlikely to cause issue for most.
I hope this helps!
To your good health,
Dr Vikki - 3:18 PM
Thanks so much for this blog, I just discovered it today.
I am gluten intolerant diagnosed through Enterolab, and I've eliminated grains zealously for the last three months, before that, well, socially I would munch on bread, or cakes. But now, I'm strict.
BUT, it looks like I might be dairy sensitive, too. (Still distended and with sinus and ear issues). And while I love butter, I also love cream in my tea or coffee. Is 'Organic Heavy Whipping Cream' from our local dairy, Clover, allowed? There are 0% carbs, so I wonder if there's no lactose, but what about the casein?
I hope you follow old threads as I'm new to the blog and the diagnosis. - 1:23 PM
- The HealthNOW Doctors said...
Hello Jean,
I invite you to visit my new website/blog at: www.healthnowmedical.com.
I am phasing out this blog and all new posts and you tube videos can be found at the above site.
Sorry, but no cream allowed. As a gluten intolerant individual I would remove ALL dairy products, including the milk of any mammal and see how your sinuses do.
If you see improvement then you can try reintroducing organic butter only and notice if anything negative occurs. To be safest, consider introducing ghee first (absolutely no protein is left in ghee).
If problems are still occurring give me a call and we can set up a consultation. You may have a hidden infection or be suffering from cross-reactive foods - nothing that's too difficult to fix!
To your good health,
Dr Vikki Petersen - 2:50 PM

I'm a ammature Pokemon breeder and in all my Pokemon I try to cover their weakness's plus add STAB to their movesets. But what would be more important in movesets: Covering weakness's, going for STAB, or making use of the Pokemon's niche?
To be honest, all of them at the same time is the best, and is far from impossible. Here's an example:
Gurdurr (M) @ Eviolite Trait: Guts EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Bulk Up - Drain Punch - Mach Punch - Ice Punch
Gurdurr's niche is being a bulky tank, which means that he can take many hits while hitting hard. He attacks with STAB with Drain Punch and Mach Punch, and I have coverage in Ice Punch. Not so hard to achieve at all.
To conclude, if you can't have all of them at the same time, I'd say that abusing that Pokemon's niche goes over the two others. But the priority is to have them all at the same time, except if you're a wall.

Okay folks,
The trip for the first weekend in May is open to a couple of options, please see below for the explanation:
Option 1
Date - Saturday the 3rd of May
Time - On the water by TBA
Launch Point - Meadowbank Dam (exact point TBC)
Target Species - Trout, Atlantic Salmon.
Special notice - for Trout you will need a Fishing Licence, no licence means no fishing for Trout basically.
Option 2
Date - Saturday the 3rd of May, or potentially Friday the 2nd.
Time - 1:00 pm (10:00 am if on the Friday)
Launch Point - Boat Ramp at the old Bridge, Midway Point causeway. (fishing around Woody Island and the small reef there)
Target Species - Flathead, Trumpeter, Aussie Salmon, Couta, Elephant Fish and Gummy Shark.
Special notice - this is a Shark Nursery, all sharks must be released as soon as possible and in good health. Mainly Gummy Shark found in here, though I have confirmed that someone did catch a small Mako about 90 cm long off of the bridge recently.
Why 2 options? I can't make it to Meadowbank as my son has started playing Soccer at school and I want to be there for him and cheer him on in every game. At five years old, I think he needs to have me there encouraging him along all the way. So that's why I am going for the 2 options, I can't make it to Meadowbank, however I will endeavour to get to the Midway Point causeway by 1:00 to go out and try a new spot.
I am not saying that we should all go to one and not the other, as I reckon you should get up there and get amongst the Trout and Salmonoids. Just that I can't make it to Meadowbank and am offering an alternative for just an afternoon trip. I intend to hit the water at about1:00 and be off again by 4:00. In doing this I may also decide to take a Flex day on the Friday so I can get a full day in somewhere and the Saturday afternoon could go by the wayside.
And now for a question: Do Elephant Fish need to be bleed after capture?
Please note - Read the Warning above in Red and Pink.

MANATEE COUNTY — The camraderie was unmistakable.
As Tom Hennessy walked through the door of the fire station, he could not contain a smile. Neither could the firefighters who greeted him.
"Hi chief!" they called, barely getting the words out before Hennessy strode across the entryway and reached out to shake each hand he saw.
Each moment like this one is special, especially since the Mill Creek resident will be resigning as chief of the Southern Manatee Fire & Rescue District June 12.
"I didn't know the emotion that would go with the decision to retire," he said. "It was 30 years (ago that I became a firefighter). I remember it like yesterday."
Hennessy and his wife, Pam, had moved to Florida from Brooklyn in 1979 and were living with friends at the time. Out of high school, Hennessy had driven a tow truck, but he had not found work in Sarasota before coming. A television commercial seeking firefighters piqued his interest, and soon a friend helped him land a job with the fire department at what is now the Sarasota International Airport.
The department agreed to put Hennessy through six weeks of training at the local fire academy. The fire officers he met were larger than life.
"I said, 'Someday, I want to be one of those guys," Hennessy said.
And by the time Hennessy completed his training, work at the airport had become boring.
"I was 23 years old and ready to take on the world," he said.
So Hennessy began volunteering with the Oneco/Tallevast Fire Department. He loved the scream of the engine as it zoomed down the street, the sight of smoke billowing out of a building and the knowledge that people were waiting for him to help.
"I used to bug chief every day to hire me," Hennessy said. "I just loved the excitement of the job."
About a year after he began volunteering, his persistence paid off. Hennessy became the district's fifth paid firefighter. Within a few years, he was promoted to lieutenant, a capacity in which he served for the next 12 years.
Eventually, he wanted more.
"I wanted to do it all as far as learning all the aspects of the fire service," Hennessy said.
In 1992, he transferred out of operations and began working in the fire prevention division, inspecting building plans, among other duties.
"That began another aspect of the fire services that a lot of people don't see," Hennessy said. "I became a certified fire inspector at that time."
Between 1995 and 2001 as the Cedar Hammock Fire Department and Oneco/Tallevast Fire Department attempted to merge, Hennessy became disillusioned with the bad politics he witnessed. Rather than quit, he was allowed to go back to the work that had first captured his interest — this time as a fire captain.
In April 2001 when the districts stopped trying to merge, Hennessy's board of commissioners asked him to be fire chief. And he's been there ever since.
Hennessy's 30 years in the fire service have been both rewarding and challenging. Although he's seen tragedy more frequently and more personally than most, he's also delivered babies, rescued people from burning buildings and felt a bond of unity and brotherhood that is found only in work where life truly depends on your coworkers.
This year, Hennessy's birthday on June 12 will be bittersweet. As he celebrates another year of life, he'll be closing the chapter of one of his greatest adventures.
"I've loved it, but I'm ready to move on," he said. "I'm going to take some time off — probably a few months to stop and smell the roses — and then get back to work."
Once he retires, Hennessy plans to spend time with his wife, who has been his constant line of support, and possibly travel. He also plans to expand a safety training business he started with a fellow firefighter and help his son start a backflow preventer testing and repair business.

The new unit from Zhangjiagang Yangzi River Petrochemical Co., expected to start up in 2014, will produce 600,000 tpy of propylene at the site in China's Jiangsu province.
Honeywells UOP said Thursday has been selected to provide key production technology to produce propylene via propane dehydrogenation in China.
Zhangjiagang Yangzi River Petrochemical Co. will use UOPs C3 Oleflex process technology to convert propane to propylene, which is used in the production of materials such as films and packaging.
The project is the ninth propylene project Honeywell's UOP has announced since the beginning of 2011, helping meet growing demand globally, the company says.
"UOP's combined Oleflex projects will help increase propylene production by nearly 5 million metric tons globally in the next three years," said Pete Piotrowski, senior vice president and general manager for process technology and equipment at UOP.
"This technology has been used extensively in China due to the region's accelerated propylene demand, and we look forward to working with Zhangjiagang Yangzi River to continue to produce this vital petrochemical."
The new unit, expected to start up in 2014, will produce 600,000 tpy of propylene at the facility in Zhangjiagang City, Jiangsu Province, China.
Honeywell's UOP will provide the engineering design, technology licensing, catalysts, adsorbents, equipment, staff training and technical service for the project.
The C3 Oleflex process uses catalytic dehydrogenation to convert propane to propylene.
Compared with competing PDH processes, Oleflex technology provides the lowest cash cost of production and the highest return on investment, enabled by low operating and capital costs, high propylene yield and reliability, and maximum operating flexibility, the company says.
Since the technology was commercialized in 1990, UOP has commissioned nine C3 Oleflex units for on-purpose propylene production, with the 10th unit scheduled to start-up this year in Russia.
Since the beginning of 2011, Honeywell's UOP announced eight similar projects in China, Abu Dhabi and North America.
Zhangjiagang Yangzi River Petrochemical Co. is a joint venture of Oriental Energy Co., Huachang Chemical Co. and Feixiang Chemical Co. It is headquartered in Zhangjiagang City in Jiangsu Province.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

I loved the snugness of this sock, but it was too itchy for me. After a few minutes wearing it, I wanted to take it off. The Smartwool Trellis 3-pack socks are much more comfortable (not itchy), but they don't fit as snugly. I am keeping them, and sending the Keen Gracie back.

TGIF: Movie capsules
"ARGO" — A movie about the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis probably doesn't sound like it would be a laugh riot — or should be — but that's just one of the many ways in which this is a glorious, gripping surprise. Directing his third feature, Ben Affleck has come up with a seamless blend of detailed international drama and breathtaking suspense, with just the right amount of dry humor to provide context and levity. He shows a deft handling of tone, especially in making difficult transitions between scenes in Tehran, Washington and Hollywood, but also gives one of his strongest performances yet in front of the camera as the film's star. It's exciting to see the confidence with which Affleck expands his ambition and scope as a filmmaker. "Argo" reveals his further mastery of pacing and storytelling, even as he juggles complicated set pieces, various locations and a cast featuring 120 speaking parts. And the story he's telling sounds impossible, but it's absolutely true (with a few third-act tweaks to magnify the drama). When protestors stormed the U.S. embassy in Tehran, taking 52 people hostage, six employees sneaked out a back door and sought refuge at the home of Canadian Ambassador Ken Taylor (Victor Garber). Longtime CIA operative Tony Mendez (Affleck) comes up with a crazy scheme to rescue them: He'll fly to Tehran, pretend that they all entered the country together to scout locations for a schlocky sci-fi movie called "Argo," then walk right out the front door with them and fly home. Bryan Cranston, John Goodman and Alan Arkin are among the excellent supporting cast. R for language and some violent images. 120 minutes. HHHH
"CLOUD ATLAS" — Maybe if you're 20 years old and high in your dorm room with your friends, the platitudes presented here might seem profound. Anyone else in his or her right mind should recognize it for what it is: a bloated, pseudo-intellectual, self-indulgent slog through some notions that are really rather facile. Ooh, we're all interconnected and our souls keep meeting up with each other over the centuries, regardless of race, gender or geography. We're individual drops of water but we're all part of the same ocean. That is deep, man. Perhaps it all worked better on the page. "Cloud Atlas" comes from the best-selling novel of the same name by David Mitchell that, in theory, might have seemed unfilmable, encompassing six stories over a span of 500 years and including some primitive dialogue in a far-away future. Sibling directors Lana and Andy Wachowski — who actually have come up with some original, provocative ideas of their own in the "Matrix" movies (well, at least the first one) — working with "Run Lola Run" director Tom Tykwer, have chopped up the various narratives and intercut between them out of order. The A-list actors who comprise the cast (including Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Susan Sarandon, Hugh Grant, Jim Broadbent) play multiple parts across the various stories and in elaborate makeup that's often laughable. But rather than serving as a satisfying, cohesive device, this strategy feels like a distracting gimmick. R. 2 hours, 52 minutes. H 1/2
"FLIGHT" — If it weren't so exceptionally crafted and acted, this tale of self-destruction and redemption might feel like the sort of feel-good fare you'd see on the Lifetime Movie Network, or even a 12-step-program promotion. Instead, Robert Zemeckis' first live-action film since 2000's "Cast Away" is thrilling, engrossing and even darkly funny at times, anchored by a tremendous performance from Denzel Washington. This is one of those Washington roles, like his Oscar-winning work in "Training Day," in which he exudes a potent mix of damage and bravado, control and danger, but he's so charismatic even as he does bad deeds that you can't help but root for him. Here, Zemeckis and screenwriter John Gatins have given him a meaty character and placed him in a complex situation. Washington stars as Whip Whitaker, a veteran airline pilot and serious alcoholic. Major mechanical failure on a flight to Atlanta forces him to pull off a daring crash landing in the middle of a field in a breathtakingly spectacular action sequence. Afterward, he's rightly hailed as a hero for saving so many lives. But the subsequent federal investigation also reveals his rampant substance abuse, which only fortifies his denial. Don Cheadle, Bruce Greenwood and John Goodman all give strong supporting performances as the people around Whip who keep him functioning in various ways, while Kelly Reilly finds a jittery fragility as the junkie who moves in with him after the crash. But Zemeckis tends to lay on a heavy-handed tone that frustratingly keeps this from being a great film, which includes a distractingly Scorsese-esque, painfully literal use of rock music. R. 2 hours, 15 minutes. HHH
"LINCOLN" — For anyone who cringed just a little while watching the trailer and worried that this might be a near-parody of a Steven Spielberg film, with its heartfelt proclamations, sentimental tones and inspiring John Williams score, fret not. The movie itself is actually a lot more reserved than that — more a wonky, nuts-and-bolts lesson about the way political machinery operates than a sweeping historical epic that tries to encapsulate the entirety of the revered 16th president's life. That was a smart move on the part of Spielberg and Pulitzer prize-winning screenwriter Tony Kushner. Talky and intimate but also surprisingly funny, "Lincoln" focuses on the final four months of Abraham Lincoln's life as he fought for the passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, abolishing slavery, and sought to unite a nation torn apart by the Civil War. This tumultuous period provides a crucible to display everything Lincoln was made of, both his folksiness and fortitude. Totally unsurprisingly, Daniel Day-Lewis inhabits the role fully. He disappears into it with small details and grand gestures, from his carriage to the cadence of his speech, and the Academy should probably just give him the best-actor Oscar now and get it over with. Although "Lincoln" itself often feels too conservative, stagey and safe, Day-Lewis' performances is full of so many clever choices that he keeps it compelling. Of course, the film has all the top-notch technical hallmarks we've come to expect from Spielberg: It's handsomely staged and impeccable in its production design. But this is a movie that's easier to admire than love; it's impressive but not exactly moving. Tommy Lee Jones, James Spader, John Hawkes and David Strathairn are among the supporting cast that might be too crammed with gifted character actors. PG-13. 2 hours, 30 minutes. HHH
"SKYFALL" — To borrow a line from Depeche Mode, death is everywhere. James Bond's mortality has never been in such prominent focus, but the demise of the entire British spy game as we know it seems imminent, as well. Still, this 23rd entry in the enduring James Bond franchise is no downer. Far from it: Simultaneously thrilling and meaty, this is easily one of the best entries ever in the 50-year, 23-film series, led once again by an actor who's the best Bond yet in Daniel Craig. So many of the elements you want to see in a Bond film exist here: the car, the tuxedo, the martini, the exotic locations filled with gorgeous women. Adele's smoky, smoldering theme song over the titles harkens to the classic 007 tales of the 1960s, even as the film's central threat of cyberterrorism, perpetrated by an elusive figure who's seemingly everywhere and can't be pinned down, couldn't be more relevant. In the hands of director Sam Mendes, it almost feels like a reinvention of the series. With Mendes collaborating once again with the great cinematographer Roger Deakins, it's definitely the most gorgeous. This time, James Bond must try and protect his no-nonsense boss, M (the always intelligent and dignified Judi Dench), from what feels like a very personal attack, even as it seems that she may not necessarily be protecting him in return. Javier Bardem pretty much steals this entire movie away from a cast of esteemed and formidable actors as the villainous Silva, the former MI6 agent getting his revenge against this staid, old-fashioned organization in high-tech, ultra-efficient ways that make him seem unstoppable. PG-13. 2 hours, 23 minutes. HHHH
"TAKEN 2" — Planning to pay out good money for this action sequel? To paraphrase Liam Neeson, you're about to be taken. Whatever novelty there was watching Neeson go commando in 2008's "Taken" is gone in the sequel, a mix of third-rate action, dreary family melodrama, laughable bad guys and even more laughable plot devices. Producer-writer Luc Besson and director Olivier Megaton ("Colombiana," "Transporter 3") draw giggles from the start with a graveside tableau of Albanians mourning their dead — all the thugs Neeson's ex-CIA Bryan Mills killed in the first movie for kidnapping his daughter in a prostitution ring. The family patriarch (Rade Sherbedgia) proclaims that the dead are crying out for justice — so he and a countless band of goons head off to Istanbul to exact revenge from Mills, his daughter (Maggie Grace) and ex-wife (Famke Janssen). There was something sprimal about "Taken," a father putting all his brains and brawn into saving his little girl, and doing it with startling ferocity and ingenious trade-craft. Neeson just looks like he's yawning his way through a light workout here, using one big Irish paw to snuff bad guys and holding the other one out to the studio for his paycheck. PG-13. 1 hour, 32 minutes. H 1/2
"THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN — PART 2" — Finally — finally! — the "Twilight" franchise embraces its own innate absurdity with this gleefully over-the-top conclusion. This is by far the best film in the series. This does not necessarily mean it's good. But as it reaches its prolonged and wildly violent crescendo, it's at least entertaining in a totally nutso way. The first four adaptations of Stephenie Meyer's mega-best sellers about the girl-vampire-werewolf love triangle were, for the most part, laughably self-serious affairs full of mopey teen angst, stilted dialogue and cheesy special effects. Sure, they pleased their fervent audience, made billions of dollars worldwide and turned their three core actors into instant superstars. But they weren't what you would call high-quality cinematic experiences. Now, Bill Condon (who also directed last year's "Breaking Dawn — Part 1") finally lets his freak flag fly. Here is the Condon of "Gods and Monsters," the one who loves lurid horror. Here is the Condon of "Dreamgirls," the one with an eye for panache. His final "Twilight" movie dares to have a little fun — it actually makes you laugh intentionally for once, teetering on self-parody as it does. Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) are now married vampires and parents to a newborn daughter, Renesmee (Mackenzie Foy). With the help of the bloodsucking Cullen clan and vampires gathered from around the globe, they must band together with Edward's former romantic rival Jacob (Taylor Lautner) and his werewolf buddies to protect the half-human, half-vampire spawn from the evil and suspicious Volturi. PG-13. 1 hour, 55 minutes. HHH

The other day I was sitting at the computer reading through my HARO inquires. Business owner and entrepreneurs – If you're not familiar with HARO, you should get to know this handy free publicity tool. HARO (Help A Reporter Out) sends three emails a day with inquiries from reporters looking for experts on a range of topics (from healthcare, to travel, parenting and business). I've been mentioned a few times on some great blogs, including a recent feature about a day in my life on Yahoo! Education.
The writer of the Yahoo! piece, Charyn Pfeuffer, was a joy to work with and has tons of experience writing for some well-known media outlets. Over the past 15 years, her work has appeared in more than 100 blogs, magazines and websites including AOL, Condé Nast Digital Media, DailyCandy.com, Destination Weddings & Honeymoons, FoodandWine.com, Marie Claire, National Geographic Traveler, San Francisco Chronicle, SPA, Sunset, TravelandLeisure.com and Yahoo! She's very much a think-big-and-make-things-happen kind of gal (and you know I love those kind of gals) who likes to use media tools to share experiences and cultivate engagement.
When I started thinking about the perfect pitch, I knew I had to ask her. Like I said, Charyn is awesome, so she's provided us with…
Thanks so much to Charyn for sharing all of these great pointers!
If you haven't already, make sure to sign up for HARO today. And, if you're on the mailing list, check all three of today's emails and see if there's something worth pitching (and use these tips). For all you guys and girls that have this PR thing down, share your tips in the comments section!

I need very little excuse to get over excited about cakes, but when I was invited to a chocolate party last weekend…Well, I could hardly control myself. In fact, I think I did very well just to stick to one type of cupcake and one big cake.
These are hot chocolate cupcakes. Chocolate Chili sponge with a hint of cinnamon frosted with dark chocolate buttercream and chocolate coated marshmallows. I personally can't resist a chocolaty marshmallow.
And this is a 4-layer white chocolate cake decorated with three flavours of macaron, hand made chocolates, hand piped chocolate cupcakes and at least three types of edible glitter. I'm sorry there aren't any better pictures of this one. Oh well, just means I'll have to make another!

The Roo project I'm working on is behaving very weirdly for a few days. Everything was fine before and I can't think of an change explaining the new behaviour. Restoring to a previous commit doesn't change anything so it has somethingg to do with the environnement.
First I have the following error: "Syntax error, annotations are only available if source level is 1.5 or greater" on all annotations.
If I apply the quick fix "Change compliance to 1.5" and add "Maven dependencies" to web deployment assembly, I can deploy again. But I still have a red cross on the project.
If I do Maven/update project configuration I'm back at the beginning.
I've done a lot of manipulations (project import, repository reset...) since this morning and went into very different stages but nothing solved this very unstable situation.
Can you help me please?
Thank you
