NEW shops and maisonettes could be built on a former Isle of Wight Council car park in East Cowes.
Plans to redevelop the Well Road car park with a three-storey building of four retail units and nine maisonettes are being recommended for approval.
However, East Cowes Town Council has opposed the scheme on the basis it is over-development and would be out of character and harm the setting of the conservation area.
The Isle of Wight Council's planning committee will consider the proposals next Tuesday.

Provided the developers undertake to deploy a large quantity of rubbish around the site, and perhaps leave some old motorbikes and parts of motorbikes lying around, and employ surly youths to spit on the ground, and release a pack of diarrheal canines in the area, i can see no issue with the development being out of keeping with its surroundings.

how can they say it would be out of character and harm the conservation area, the ugly carbuncle that is called the doctors surgery is hideous. waitrose is just a square blob and there is a sea of tarmac surrounding them, some conservation area. bring on the new shops

Surely it's a good thing for East Cowes! Might get rid of some of the delapadated old run down looking shops!

Sheets of connective tissue called fascia are located under the skin of the arms and legs. These wrap around groups of muscles, nerves, and blood vessels to create a unit called a compartment. When pressure builds up in these enclosed spaces, it is redirected into the compartment. When pressure reaches a certain point, it disrupts blood flow. Blood vessels may fail and tissue dies. Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) can affect the arms, hands, legs, feet, and buttocks.

Common causes include:
These factors increase your chance of developing ACS:
Symptoms may include:
Symptoms can develop within 30 minutes to two hours. In other cases, it may take days.
ACS is an emergency. Get medical help right away. Damage can result in serious injury or even death.
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.

The pressure inside your compartments will be measured. This can be done with:
Your bodily fluids will be tested. This can be done with blood tests.
Surgery to relieve pressure, called fasciotomy, must be done right away to prevent permanent damage. The doctor makes a long cut into the fascia to open the envelope of tissue and relieve pressure.
ACS is difficult to prevent because there are many causes. But there are some steps you can take to reduce your risk of injury, such as:

I hope we don't see these on eBay in a few years with the patches pulled off! I'm not worried about MY bag, because I'm an adult, but if you've got a really rough kid it might be a problem.There's a big patch on the back. I'm not sure what you could put back there, but you could figure out something. For example:The Chinese coin! Fairly big for a doll coin, and it feels like real metal. I have no idea what coin it's supposed to be.Only thing I don't like THAT much about the bag is that it's hard to get it to sit on her shoulder!I was too dumb to take a picture of the beret. It seems a little pilled already, I hope it's not nasty in a few years. Also, I have no idea how AG got Ivy's beret on her head like they did, because mine doesn't stretch like that.

I guess we're all having trouble. So I took some pictures.There's definitely a problem with her hair being too slick for it to stay put. When I am trying to get it on her, if it doesn't come off, it ends up like this:With the edge folded under, I was able to get to do this, which stayed on through light shaking and being turned upside down and looks decent, I think:With the edge rolled back down, this is the closest I could get to AG's style, but it's not near as cute -- too poofy:So I gave up and went with it. Ivy's a muffin for Halloween:What Bean said on the rest of the accessories. But Ivy's hair falls over her ears so I don't get to see her earrings much. That's a bummer.Overall rating: B+

That seems to me that it might be something to do with Ivy's hair; You do have to give it a good stretch.The earrings.. well, I can't use them but they're cute. As is the lucky coin.The bag though, is just adorable. Mine had the patches SEWN on, which kind of frustrated me to be honest because it means that the front 2 pockets are not fully open. It's incredibly well-made and adorable, and I'm planning on making a bunch of cute little denim bags inspired by this one because I love it *that much* Only criticism is the yellow strap, I wish it were denim because I feel like then it'd go with more things; With a yellow strap I think of the bag as part yellow, instead of just a denim bag with cool patches that could go with anything.Overall grade A

The bag is cute, and it has kinda pocket like things on it. I had no trouble with the hat, I got it pretty close to the catalouge look. I feel very stupid with the ear rings though. I've never had a doll with ear rings, so when she arrived in posts, I though you shoved the loops on the dangles OVER the post. I spent hours trying to get those ear rings in. It took me, I think about 3 days to figure out that the posts pulled out! The coin is cute, but I noticed mine doesn't have COPY stamped on it like all the other doll coins. Its from China, but Nellie's Irish penny has COPY on it.Same with Emily's pence. Anyways, I don't have much use for the coin, so I turned it into a necklace for Ivy. Its pretty cute if you get it to lay right. =)I would give the accessories an A

I don't have Ivy, so I was upset that the earrings don't come with posts and are therefore useless to me. I mostly got this for the bag though; I was a little annoyed because the flower patch was/is only ironed down in the center, so the petals flip up... I'm going to try to iron it down later, hopefully it'll stick.

The Worst Movie of 2012 Was Truly Ghastly
What do you think was the worst movie of 2012?
"John Carter," a movie so bad Disney wrote it off as a $200 million loss? Well, at least the film brought in an estimated $72 million in ticket sales domestically, plus another $210 million worldwide.
"Cloud Atlas," the confusing film starring Oscar winners Tom Hanks and Halle Berry which cost about $100 million to make? Movie goers did fork over nearly $66 million globally to see it.
Nope, based on ticket sales, the worst movie of 2012 was "The Ghastly Love of Johnny X," a 106-minute long black-and-white $2 million musical fiasco. According to Box Office Mojo, Johnny's box office wasn't boffo. At all. Total ticket sales added up to … $117 ("not a typo" said Yahoo!).
One hundred and seventeen dollars? So, like, 10 people went to see it?
The plot summary on IMDB.com says the film is "[a] truly mad concoction, blending 1950s juvenile delinquents, sci-fi melodrama, song-and-dance, and a touch of horror, everything in just the right combination to create an engaging big screen spectacle!"
The movie focuses on these mischievous teen aliens who sing peppy songs, like the one in this clip—"Here we go, baby, let's break the rules."
I can't imagine why this wasn't a hit!
(Read More: Why Time Warner Is Investing $25 Million in Maker Studios.)
Think the film was populated by a bunch of no names? Wrong.
Creed Bratton from "The Office" gets second billing. Veteran actor Kevin McCarthy of "Invasions of the Body Snatchers," who died in 2010, makes his last appearance in the movie as "The Grand Inquisitor." Even Paul Williams is back on the big screen! But the film's main star is Will Keenan, called "a cult legend" by some critics.
"The Ghastly Love of Johnny X" has its own website, and 133 people follow it on
Twitter. Why so few tickets sold? The explanation on Twitter is that the movie was only shown once in a single theater in Kansas. Hmmmm, if you're thinking this whole endeavor sounds like the plot from "The Producers," I'm with you.
(Read More: Here's Why MGM and Time Warner Need a Big 'Hobbit'.)
Perhaps the joke is on us. As word leaks out about how awful the movie performed, DVD sales could soar ... as soon as the movie is out on DVD. And the quality of film used in the movie has generated buzz. Director Paul Bunnell used stock from Kodak which has gone the way of ... well … most of Kodak.
But what do critics say? Thirteen of them reviewed the film, proving that there are too many people being paid to be critics.
"I think it's extremely charming and quirky, and it definitely has the heart at the right place," wrote Ronny Carlsson of FilmBizarro.
"I was concerned that Ghastly Love might be trying too hard to be the next The Rocky Horror Picture Show cult classic," wrote a reviewer at The Movie Gourmet, "but, not to worry, Ghastly Love definitely stands on its own."
Well apparently it didn't stand on its own enough to make any money ... yet ...

The hydrotreater, which removes impurities from feedstock for the FCC, was one of several units shut for planned work that began earlier this month, said the person, Maintenance on the unit, initially expected to be finished by November 28, was extended because of the compressor work.
By LYNN DOAN
SAN ANTONIO (Bloomberg) -- Tesoro Corporations Carson plant, part of Californias largest refining complex, is expected to keep a hydrotreater shut until next week as it resolves a compressor malfunction, a person familiar with operations said.
The hydrotreater, which removes impurities from feedstock for the fluid catalytic cracker, was one of several units shut for planned work that began earlier this month, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the information isnt public. Maintenance on the unit, initially expected to be finished by November 28, was extended because of the compressor work, the person said.
Tina Barbee, a spokeswoman at Tesoros headquarters in San Antonio, declined by e-mail to comment. She said earlier that the refinery is performing planned maintenance activities.
Tesoro bought the 266,000 bpd Carson plant from BP in June and has been integrating the site with its 97,000 bpd Wilmington refinery. The Carson section includes the biggest fluid catalytic cracker in California, two cokers and distillate hydrocracking, according to a June 3 statement from BP.
A reformer, which processes desulfurized feedstock into high-octane gasoline blending components, is expected to return to service at Carson after maintenance, said the person familiar with operations. Other equipment that was shut for the turnaround, including a sulfur unit, has been restarted, the person said.
The Carson section runs crudes from Alaskas North Slope, the Middle East and West Africa, according to BP.

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.

Toshiba's Media Boxes focus on streaming first, Blu-rays second
LAS VEGAS--One could argue that Blu-ray players have been misnamed for years. Yes, they play your Blu-rays, but they're even more about their embedded Smart TV suites that serve up streaming video and music.
That's the angle Toshiba is taking, rolling our four new devices curiously called "Media Box with Blu-ray Disc player capabilities." That's more awkward than it needs to be, but it's hard not to like Toshiba reversing the importance of Blu-ray and streaming capabilities.

"He was totally on fire, he hair was really burned," said Celia Rodriguez, witnessed man on fire.
"He was dancing around like a zombie on fire," said David Johnson, witnessed man on fire.
Witnesses and fire fighters couldn't believe what they saw. Some said it didn't seem like he was trying to put himself out.
"He didn't seem like he realized he was on fire," said Johnson.
"It was weird, it was weird in every way, said Batt. Chief Tom Augustus, Provo Fire and Rescue.
Celia Rodriguez said Monday afternoon she was sitting in her office next the 7-11 in Provo on the corner Bulldog Blvd and State Street when she saw a 22 year old man whose entire body was on fire.
"I just was like in shock. I didn't know what to do. I just grabbed my cell phone and called 911," said Rodriguez.
Several other witnesses grabbed fire extinguishers and put the man out. When fire fighters arrived they found the man lying on the ground in front of the 7-11, and a dumpster behind the store still on fire. Responders were baffled.
"All we know is he was back by a dumpster. We're collecting evidence right now trying to determine what the cause was," said Augustus.
The man was airlifted to the University of Utah Hospital Burn Center, but he left behind a disturbing scene. As the fire burned the man, charred pieces of clothing fell to the ground in several places. Witnesses said by the time they put him out he had almost no clothing left.
"What it looked like to me was he was either on drugs or suicidal, one of the two," said Johnson.
"I was so scared because I never saw something like that before," said Rodriguez.
Police who are updating the man's condition said as of Monday evening he's still alive, but will only add "he's in bad shape." So far it's unknown who the man is, or how he caught fire.

Since the 2008 PAG, stakeholders have encouraged HHS to update the Guidelines on a regular basis. The PAG Midcourse Report was developed to build on the 2008 PAG by exploring the science on a particular area of public health concern, and providing information to stakeholders that supports physical activity-related efforts across the nation.
top of page
The purpose of the PAG Midcourse Report is to present information and recommendations for increasing physical activity levels in America's youth. Based on a review-of-reviews, the PAG Midcourse Report describes intervention strategies that can increase physical activity among youth ages 3 to 17 years in various settings where youth live, learn and play. The report organizes findings into five key settings that provide important opportunities to increase activity: school, preschool and childcare, community, family and home, and primary health care.
While the PAG Midcourse Report supports the 2008 PAG, it does not change the type and amount of physical activity recommended in the Guidelines. Children and adolescents need at least 60 minutes (1 hour) or more of physical activity each day.
Since development of the 2008 Guidelines, new research has enhanced our understanding of physical activity in early childhood. The PAG Midcourse Report describes current science on children ages 3 to 5 years to support on-going efforts to increase activity levels in young Americans.
The PAG Midcourse Report does not modify existing PAG recommendations. The Guidelines are intended for Americans ages 6 years and older.

The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans published by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is designed to provide information and guidance on the types and amounts of physical activity that provide substantial health benefits for Americans aged 6 years and older. The main idea behind the Guidelines is that regular physical activity over months and years can produce long-term health benefits.
HHS is publishing comprehensive Physical Activity Guidelines for the first time with the 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans. The Physical Activity Guidelines are new because they represent:
The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans describe the major research findings about the health benefits of physical activity:
Yes, the Physical Activity Guidelines are for Americans aged 6 years and older. The Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee did not review evidence for children younger than age 6, although physical activity for infants and young children is necessary for healthy growth and development. Children younger than age 6 should do physical activity appropriate for their age and stage of development.
Adults should do a minimum of 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity a week by doing activities like brisk walking, ballroom dancing, or general gardening. Adults can choose 1 hour and 15 minutes (75 minutes) a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity by doing exercise like jogging, aerobic dancing, and jumping rope. Adults also may choose combinations of moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activity.
Aerobic activity should be performed in episodes of at least 10 minutes, and preferably spread throughout the week. For additional and more extensive health benefits, adults should increase their aerobic physical activity to 5 hours (300 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity or 2 hours and 30 minutes a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity or an equivalent combination of moderate- and vigorous-intensity activity. Additional health benefits are gained by engaging in physical activity beyond this amount. Adults should also do muscle-strengthening activities on 2 or more days a week to achieve the unique benefits of strengthening activities.
Adults should do a minimum of 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity a week by doing activities like brisk walking, ballroom dancing, or general gardening.
Children and adolescents aged 6–17 years should accumulate 1 hour or more of physical activity daily. The 1 hour of activity should be mostly aerobic but should also include muscle-strengthening and bone-strengthening activities. Youth should include vigorous-intensity activity in this 1 hour on at least 3 days a week. They should also do muscle-strengthening activities on at least 3 days and bone-strengthening activities on at least 3 days a week. It is important to encourage young people to participate in physical activities that are appropriate for their age, enjoyable, and offer variety. The Guidelines list a number of examples of each type of activity for children and adolescents.
The amount of physical activity individuals should get each week differs based on a number of factors. The amount and types of activity needed varies based on age and special conditions. These conditions include pregnancy and the postpartum period for women, disabilities, and chronic medical or health conditions.
At a minimum, all adults and older adults should aim for 2 hours and 30 minutes each week. Youth should be active for 1 hour each day. The Guidelines generally explain the amounts and types of physical activity needed for health benefits. Individuals have many choices about appropriate types and amounts of activity. To make these choices, American adults need to set personal goals for physical activity. People can meet the Guidelines and their own personal goals through different amounts and types of activity.
Inactive persons can begin to gain the health benefits as they increase their physical activity even before they reach 2 hours and 30 minutes each week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity.
Children, adolescents, adults, and older adults with disabilities should meet the Guidelines when possible and should avoid inactivity because physical activity offers many health benefits. When persons with disabilities are not able to meet the Guidelines, they should be as active as possible and avoid being inactive. Persons with disabilities should work with their health care provider to understand the types and amounts of physical activity appropriate for them.
Many healthy and fit older adults can follow the guidelines for adults. Some adults who are unfit or who have activity-limiting chronic conditions may need to follow the guidelines for older adults. Most of the guidelines are the same for adults and older adults, but some additional guidelines are just for older adults. These are:
HHS is publishing Physical Activity Guidelines for the first time because being physically active is one of the most important steps that Americans of all ages can take to improve their health. The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans provide science-based guidance to help Americans aged 6 years and older improve their health through appropriate physical activity.
These Guidelines are necessary because of the importance of physical activity to the health of Americans, whose current inactivity puts them at unnecessary risk. Unfortunately, the latest information shows that inactivity among American adults and youth remains relatively high and little progress has been made in increasing the level of physical activity in the population.
The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans provide complementary and consistent advice for physical activity. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans provide general guidance about physical activity and healthy eating for a wide range of health benefits, including weight control. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans are updated every 5 years. For the Dietary Guidelines, see www.health.gov/dietaryguidelines. The Physical Activity Guidelines include a more comprehensive listing of health benefits, provide specific amounts and types of physical activity, and offer options and benefits to all populations and many subgroups.
The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans provide complementary and consistent advice for physical activity.
The HHS "Healthy Youth for a Healthy Future" (HYHF), Childhood Overweight and Obesity Prevention Initiative led by the Surgeon General, promotes the importance of healthy eating and physical activity at a young age to help prevent overweight and obesity in this country. HYHF focuses on recognizing and showcasing communities throughout America that are coming together to address childhood overweight and obesity prevention by encouraging kids to eat right and exercise. To change children's eating and activity habits, this initiative concentrates on many of the people who influence our children, including parents, caregivers, schools, public health leaders and local community leaders. The Surgeon General has embarked on a national tour to recognize and highlight those communities with effective prevention programs and to motivate community members to join together in their efforts to encourage kids to eat healthier and increase physical activity to at least 60 minutes a day.
The Guidelines and other HHS evidence-informed recommendations provide the scientific basis for the physical activity actions called for as part of the HYHF initiative to "Help Kids Stay Active" and "Promote Healthy Choices." Through the Surgeon General's Pledge, all who wish to join this movement to help children achieve and maintain a healthy weight commit to "helping children be physically active through everyday play and participation in sports." Additional resources and specific implementation strategies are available at: www.surgeongeneral.gov/obesityprevention/.
The Federal Government has never before issued comprehensive physical activity guidelines for the Nation. HHS is publishing Physical Activity Guidelines for the first time with the 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans. The Guidelines represent the first major review of the science on benefits of physical activity in more than a decade. Unlike previous recommendations, the Guidelines specify a total amount of activity per week that allows people to design their own way of meeting the guidelines. People can choose from many activities and can accumulate activities in bouts of 10 minutes throughout the week. In addition, individuals can do moderate-intensity activity, vigorous-intensity activity, or a combination of the two. Muscle-strengthening activity is advised on 2 or more days a week.
In 1995, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) published physical activity recommendations for public health. The report stated that adults should accumulate at least 30 minutes a day of moderate-intensity physical activity on most, preferably all, days per week. In 1996, Physical Activity and Health: A Report of the Surgeon General supported this same recommendation.
The 2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans affirm that it is acceptable to follow the CDC/ACSM recommendation and similar recommendations. However, according to the Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee report, the CDC/ACSM guideline was too specific. In other words, existing scientific evidence does not allow researchers to say, for example, whether the health benefits of 30 minutes on 5 days a week are any different from the health benefits of 50 minutes on 3 days a week. As a result, the new Guidelines allow a person to accumulate 2 hours and 30 minutes a week in various ways.
The Healthy People 2010 objectives were developed and released in January 2000 based on the research and science from such reports as the Surgeon General's Report on Physical Activity and Health and national surveys. Healthy People outlines public health goals (including goals for physical activity and fitness) for each decade, whereas the Physical Activity Guidelines identify specific amounts of physical activity individuals should do to accrue health benefits. Essentially, more people meeting the Guidelines may improve measures included in Healthy People.
Communities can take action to ensure that regular physical activity is an easy choice. Communities can provide many opportunities for physical activity, such as walking trails, bicycle lanes on roads, sidewalks, and sports fields. Community organizations have a role to play. Schools, places of worship, worksites, and community centers can provide opportunities and encouragement for physical activity.
To be effective, physical activity promotion efforts should use an "evidence-based" approach. The Guide to Community Preventive Services (Community Guide) published by the CDC has reviewed many community-level approaches to promote physical activity. Five strongly recommended strategies are described in the Guidelines.
Communities can provide many opportunities for physical activity, such as walking trails, bicycle lanes on roads, sidewalks, and sports fields.
The Guidelines specify a total amount of activity per week that allows people to design their own way of meeting the guidelines. For example, an individual can meet the minimum recommendation of 2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity a week by doing 30 minutes a day on 5 days of the week as recommended by the CDC and the ACSM in 1995 and by the Physical Activity and Health: A Report of the Surgeon General, published in 1996. However, an individual can also accumulate aerobic activity in many other ways; for example, doing 50 minutes of moderate-intensity activity on 3 days, or a 30-minute brisk walk on 2 days and a 90-minute weekend hike. An individual also can do vigorous-intensity activity or a combination of moderate- and vigorous-intensity activity. In addition, the Guidelines recommend muscle-strengthening activity on 2 or more days a week.
The minimum guideline for children remains 60 minutes daily. However, more detail has been provided. Most of the activity should be moderate- or vigorous-intensity aerobic activity. Children should include vigorous-intensity activity on at least 3 days a week. Children should do muscle-strengthening activity on at least 3 days a week. They also should do bone-strengthening activity on at least 3 days a week.

"Very compelling website. I spent 3 hours on it over three nights to decide which size and features then, phone conversation yesterday with Ben Lang was very helpful. Also picking up in two days for 1/2 price shipping in my hometown, Austin Texas, made this purchase really easy! Good-bye Green Egg - Hello Lang " James Choat who found us via our YouTube videos!
"I sold my Lang 60 in ten minutes after i said it was for sale.... the new owner knew it was a winner because I won several competitions with it. I have since moved up to a Lang 84. When you go to a competition you can hear them say 'he's got a Lang' . They say it because I believe it's a better cooker than most on the market today. It don't take fancy to cook BBQ...it takes a Lang" Bill Sack posted on Facebook

Paleo is a catchy little term for the process of choosing food based on your evolutionary metabolic condition. Instead of eating a diet composed mainly of recent, Neolithic-era, agricultural and processed foods like grains, dairy and frozen dinners, Paleo eaters choose their foods from meat, fish, eggs, nuts, seeds, fruits and vegetables. Adopting this hunter-gatherer approach to food will keep your body fat percentage in check , your insulin sensitivity strong and your entire body functioning in accordance with its ingenious design. Here is an extensive list of Paleo Foods conveniently broken down into the categories of Proteins, Fats and Carbohydrates.
Here are the Paleo Principles:
1. Eat foods that sustained human beings before we wrecked our health by becoming settled, citified farmers. Eat meat, fish, eggs, leafy vegetables, root vegetables, fruits and berries, nuts, wild seeds.
2. Eat foods raised in accordance with their own natural environment. The animals you eat should eat grass if they have four stomachs. The birds you eat should eat worms, bugs and weeds. The plants you eat should be grown in soil that does not require pesticides and herbicides.
3. Eat foods that are like a stick of nutritional dynamite, instead of like a wimpy little firecracker. Everything you eat should provide your body with a concentrated source of nutrients for maintaining, building , repairing and fueling your body. A bowl of rice is a wimpy firecracker. A piece of grass-raised beef is dynamite.
4. Eat your carbohydrate in accordance with your energy expenditure. Carbohydrate only has one function in the human body: to provide energy. If you are primarily sedentary at your computer, then don't eat like a 17th century peasant farmer.
5. Prepare your foods the way that humans have traditionally prepared foods. Certain foods require specific handling methods in order to make their limited nutrients bioavailable to the human body.
6. Don't eat things that aren't food. Food should be easily identifiable. Soy milk, protein bars and sports drinks are a far cry from any food that exists in the natural world. Better nutrition through chemistry is A BAD IDEA.
7. Eat a wide range of traditional, life-giving fats that have not been damaged by processing.
8. Eat foods that are rich in lacto-bacteria to replenish the micro-organisms of our gut.
9. Eat some of your foods raw, including animal foods. Nutrient content and bioavailability of food is affected by preservation and cooking method.
10. Eat a wide variety of foods. The majority of the caloric intake of most Americans is derived from only 3 foods.
11. Do not partition your food wastefully. If you are eating an egg, eat the whole egg. If you are eating an animal, eat the organs, muscles and bones. If you are eating a plant eat all the edible portions.
12. Get to know your food supply. Know your hunters, your butchers, your gatherers, your storekeepers and your farmers. Know what foods are produced in your own geographic environment.
13. Know yourself. How do you feel, perform and look? If the way you feel, perform or look isn't top level, change something about the way you eat, move and care for yourself!!!
14. Enjoy your food. Enjoy eating. Eating is Primal Human satisfaction at its best.

Producer Prices in July 2010
August 20, 2010
On an unadjusted basis, prices for finished goods advanced 4.2 percent for the 12 months ended July 2010, their ninth consecutive 12-month increase.
For the 12 months ended July 2010, prices for finished consumer foods increased 4.4 percent; for finished energy goods, 12.4 percent; and for finished goods less foods and energy, 1.5 percent.
Over the month, the Producer Price Index for Finished Goods rose 0.2 percent in July, seasonally adjusted. This advance followed a 0.5-percent decline in June and a 0.3-percent decrease in May.
The increase in the index for finished goods can be traced to higher prices for finished goods other than foods and energy, which rose 0.3 percent. Also contributing to the advance in finished goods prices, the index for consumer foods moved up 0.7 percent. By contrast, the finished energy goods index fell 0.9 percent in July.
These data are from the BLS Producer Price Index program. See "Producer Price Indexes — July 2010" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-10-1140, for more information. All producer price indexes are routinely subject to revision once, 4 months after original publication, to reflect the availability of late reports and corrections by respondents.

Product Description
This Kenmore 7.9 cu. ft. electric dryer 6210
takes the guesswork out of your drying cycle. The convenient Auto Dry control uses an internal thermostat to monitor heat levels and will automatically adjust to deliver safer, gentler temperatures for better fabric care. You can also select timed cycles in 10-minute increments for extended tumbling on blankets and comforters or quick cycles for hot towels. The Wrinkle Guard® feature will help prevent wrinkles from setting in by tumbling clothes periodically for an extended period of time after high heat cycles are over.
- Auto dry cycles use an integrated thermostat to control temperatures and sense when fabrics are dry to help eliminate heat damage and take the guesswork out of drying.
- Medium range capacity gives this dryer the power of some bigger machines, allowing it to deliver features that fluff, finish and dry your fabrics to perfection.
- An integrated side-swing reversible dryer door helps you customize your laundry room by positioning the door to open closest to the washer for faster loading and more convenience.

Kenmore has a good reputation but I wasn't fully satisfied with this dryer because my towels were still damp after a 70 minute cycle, even on the high heat setting. I called customer service at Sears right away to exchange this dryer for a Maytag 7.0 cu. ft. They won't recharge me for delivery, they will haul away the Kenmore dryer at no charge and over the phone I'll pay the difference. Good customer service. My new Maytag is coming within three days. Our last dryer was a Maytag from Sears and we had good luck with it. I also just purchased a new LG washing machine from Sears and I like it very much. The delivery and set up guys are very good. We buy all our appliances from Sears. The Kenmore vacuum cleaner is the best one we've had.

GT Transeo 4.0 Comfort Bike - 2013
The GT Transeo 4.0 Comfort Bike is one of the most popular bikes we sell. Probably because it does so many things so well. Want a bike that's ideal for cruising the neighborhood or bike path? Taking a leisurely spin down country roads? Exploring fire roads or two-track? The Transeo 4.0 is designed to handle it all.Incorporating GT's Triple Triangle design, the Transeo 4.0's aluminum frame is strong, lightweight and uses what GT calls their "sport fitness geometry." The relaxed angles make the Transeo 4.0 comfortable, stable and extremely easy to handle. The bike's Suntour suspension fork provides 63mm of travel, which, although on the stingy side for serious trail riding, is plenty for the kinds of riding the Transeo was designed for. Plus, by eschewing a longer-travel fork, the Transeo's designers didn't add any unnecessary weight to the bike. With its 24 speeds and easy-to-use Shimano Rapid Fire Plus shifters, gear changes are super fast and smooth. Direct-pull brakes provide positive speed control and stopping power and extra-wide, puncture-resistant tires help ensure that you and your Transeo will keep on rolling just about anywhere you decide to go.

.... back yard astronomer ================= Don't forget to look at the moon often. Its a play ground of fun if you throttle up the magnification!
Quote:My fist telescopic observation and sketch of Hyakutake was made March 14, 1996. Two days later, I noted it as a naked eye object with a degree-and-a-half long tail. On March 22, the comet was an obvious naked eye object in Bootes and a brilliant binocular target. The best view I enjoyed was on March 27, 1996 when comet Hyakutake was very near Polaris with a tail extending through the bowl of the Big Dipper into Coma Berenices and beyond. Hale-Bopp was spectacular in its own way. While Hyakutake was all elegance and grace, Hale-Bopp dominated the night sky. It was visible in moderate aperture more than 18 months before reaching perihelion. For several months in early 1997, Hale-Bopp was an ever-present companion. It was so impressive as to inspire me to dabble in prime focus imaging through my old 10-inch Starfinder. I recall going to Albertson's for a loaf of bread and some eggs, walking through the parking lot back to my car, and glancing casually up to see Hale-Bopp silently blazing away. It was just always there and seeing it night after night became rather mundane.

Country Analysis Note
- Lebanon relies heavily on energy imports to meet domestic demand. In 2010, the country imported 120,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) of refined oil products, which accounted for over 90 percent of total primary energy demand in the country.
- With an eye toward developing domestic oil and natural gas resources, the government of Lebanon announced that it hopes to complete a pre-qualification bid for exploration in the country's territorial waters by April 2013. Plans call for the selection process to be completed in early 2014, with exploration beginning as early as 2017. As of February 2013, details on the size and number of the blocks were not yet available.
- Lebanon's government estimates that there are potential natural gas reserves of 25 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) located in its offshore territory, but until more exploration occurs that figure remains speculative.
- There is an ongoing dispute between Lebanon and Israel over their shared maritime boundary that could affect Lebanon's ability to proceed with its offshore development plans. The disputed region—which covers over 300 square miles—may contain potentially significant hydrocarbon resources given its location near the center of the Levant Basin. U.S. Geological Survey estimates from 2010 placed the potential mean recoverable resources in the Levant Basin at 1.7 billion barrels of oil and 122 Tcf of natural gas.
- In the near-term, Lebanon will continue to be reliant on energy imports. The Arab Gas Pipeline promised to deliver volumes of natural gas from Egypt to Lebanon via Jordan and Syria, but disruptions have been frequent and persistent due to the security environment in the region. With the crisis in neighboring Syria limiting the ability of overland deliveries, the majority of Lebanon's imports will likely continue to arrive via its Mediterranean ports.
- Lebanon is a member of the Eight Country Interconnection Project, along with Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Libya, the Palestinian territories, Syria, and Turkey. The project is designed to integrate the electricity grids of all members, but regional instability—most recently in Syria—has cut off connections between several of the countries.

Get up real close to your subject, never accept NO!
The Violinist, 2006

Guest Post: 5 Rules of Thumb for Hanging Art
Don Weaver, Red Chair, 2011
At UGallery, we know that once you've decided to buy a piece of art your next question is: where and how do I hang it?
We recently tapped into the expertise of interior designer Tobi Fairley to get the best tips for hanging art.
Tobi founded her design firm more than 15 years ago and shares her insider secrets through consultations, blog post, videos and workshops. Her designs have been featured in prominent publications from Better Homes and Gardens to Southern Living.
In collaboration with creativeLIVE and House Beautiful, she will be hosting a workshop in San Francisco on Function-Driven Interior Design from March 24 to 26.
You can be a part of the live audience! Submit your information here by March 1st at midnight (PST) for a chance to be in-studio during the workshop.
In the meantime, check out her five rules for hanging art. Happy decorating!
Jonelle Summerfield, Cafe Hawelka IV, 2013
5 Rules of Thumb for Hanging Art, from interior designer Tobi Fairley
Use these simple rules to create a functional interior design when hanging art:
1. When selecting a frame for art, coordinate it with the art, not the room. Frames should complement the artwork and allow it to be a focal point of the interior design.
2. If the work comes with a wire on the back, use a picture hanger and a nail of the appropriate weight. If there is not a wire and the art is heavy, you'll need a picture hanger on each side to balance the weight. And while I love a Command strip for hanging temporary or very light pieces, never hang important or heavier framed items from them. I've seen too many people ruin great art that way.
3. Framing and hanging a group, series, or collection of art can be time consuming, but it makes a statement. When hanging the group, think of the collection as one large piece, then place the center of the group 60 to 66 inches from the floor. Also, in most cases, allow no more than 4 inches between individual pieces in a pairing or grouping.
4. Mixing styles and media in a room, or even in one group, can work beautifully. Try to group pieces that have a common thread, such as subject matter, the medium, the color palette, or the period. And be sure that the frames match or complement one another.
5. When hanging art over furniture, place everything close together so it looks cohesive when you enter a room. A good rule of thumb is to allow 6 inches or less between the art and the top of the furniture. Of course, use your judgement so people won't hit their heads or knock into art when they sit or stand.

Artist in Focus: Alex Kain
Although the snow might keep some people indoors underneath a blanket, photographer Alex Kain seeks out the cold. He captures the chilling beauty of the Arctic with a trained eye and enjoys visiting even the most obscure of places.
We caught up with the photographer to ask more about his practice, the things that inspire him and what he hopes to achieve with this work.
What is your earliest art/photography memory?
Falkor from The Neverending Story. I still wish I could fly around on a big white dragon.
What is your favorite piece in your UGallery portfolio?
It's a toss up between Louis and ITP. Both show how tiny you feel in the Arctic and how the blending of ice and sky makes you feel like you're on a different planet.
What/where would you say is your greatest source of inspiration?
Unspoiled areas of nature and high-energy people.
Louis, 2009
What is the best piece of advice that was given to you in terms of photography?
It's natural to admire the heroes of whatever field you're interested in. On the one hand this is great because you learn from the best, but on the other hand this is maddening because you constantly compare yourself to the best photographers/painters/chefs/whatever who have ever lived.
I've definitely faced this before. I'll shoot some portraits or landscapes, won't like what I've done, and then tell myself, "Alex these are not only bad photos. They are literally the worst photos ever taken." Then I'll mope around and feel worthless for a few hours. A friend in the midst of writing a novel once told me that there's a profound amount of self-hatred associated with writing, and I think the same is true of any artform, especially when you're familiar with the masters of your craft. It's really important not to let this hold you back from improving and showing your work.
Are there any other photographers/artists that inspire you or that you try to emulate?
I love the portraits of Joseph Szabo, the wartime photos of Horace Bristol, anything by David Attenborough and this French photographer named Théo Gosselin whose pictures make me want to go on a road trip for the rest of my life.
There's this artist named Reuben Margolin whose wavy, mechanical sculptures mesmerize me by being in harmony with natural phenomena and exciting my inner math geek. I'm also a huge Kanye fan. I've probably watched Runaway over 20 times. Can you imagine any other pop musician featuring a supermodel dressed like a bird and a 9-minute ballet scene in a music video? Didn't think so.
What is your most important photography tool (whether it be physical or mental)?
A camera. Just kidding! Really though, it's sleep. Sounds pretty basic, but a lot of being a photographer is having the energy to be perceptive, adventurous and ready to shoot when the opportunity presents itself. If I'm a sleep-deprived zombie, I get depressed and shoot badly.
What is it exactly that you want to say with your photographs?
There's a morbidity to photography. Photos turn their subjects into corpses. The second after you've released the shutter, the closer your subject is to death or destruction. This sounds really macabre and sad, but I like to think that capturing these moments reminds us to protect fragile environments and to find the spaces that let us feel youthful, bright and assured.
What does traveling mean to you? Or more specifically, how has traveling impacted your view of the artistic world?
I think a lot of people go to Paris expecting inimitable charm and then are surprised to learn that the Sephora on the Champs-Élysées is just like the Sephora in Modesto except it's more expensive.
With the explosion of digital photography and social media, traveling has become synonymous with telling the world you are traveling. Many people live through digital representations of themselves, engaging more with pixels than with people. I call this "living vicariously through yourself" and the extent to which people do this nowadays is unprecedented in the course of human history. The whole thought of being in Paris and being preoccupied about how many likes your pic of the Eiffel Tower got is insane.
For me, one of the luxuries of traveling is unplugging. I enjoy going to remote places where I can avoid distractions that prevent me from doing things that make me feel good about myself. At the end of the day life is all about presence.
Sunrise, 2009
We're giving away one of Alex's photographs! Visit our Pinterest photography board this Saturday, February 22 around 10 a.m. PST for more details. Good luck!

Teaching kids to fight back against an abductor
Posted: 9:44 PM Jan 30, 2013
Reporter: Alex Hambrick
Teaching kids to fight back against an abductor
A disturbing case out of Alabama where a young boy was snatched from his school bus has many parents on edge, but there are things parents can do to educate their kids about the importance of being alert and fighting back.
The six year old was taken Tuesday evening and is still being held hostage. One mom of three said it terrifies her to think about one of her kids being in that situation, and she said it's definitely maing her think hard about ways to make them more aware and keep them safe.
"Well it definitely makes me feel like I need to be a lot closer to my kids, you know I have one child that is a special needs child that is picked up and dropped off directly to our door," said mom Amy Lester.
Lester said her other two ride the bus to school each day and feels fortunate that they only walk a couple of houses down to catch it, but now she is worried about what happens after they're on.
"Things can happen so fast there's also that fear of if I was there could I have done anything," said Lester.
Deputy Chad Williams from the Mesa County Sheriff's Office works with kids and teaches a stranger class.
"Looking at the cases in the U.S. and the evidence that we have and the research that we have teach the kids to fight back is the best course and that's what we teach now," said Deputy Williams.
Williams said while kids can't beat an adult in a fight, they can win a moment. He advises kids to practice survival basics like kicking, punching and biting, pretty much anything to distract the abductor.
