Hardys Chardonnay Nottage Hill 750ml 2012 Sku: 1837826
3 day lead-time required to confirm availability Why?
Since 1884 when Thomas Hardy Nottage began a 60-year career looking after the vineyards, the passion and dedication of the Nottage family has been a treasured part of Hardys history. As cousins of the Hardys, four generations of Nottages helped build the success of our wines and, to this day, precious vines flourish on the hill that bears their name. Nottage Hill was released in 1967 to honour and celebrate the contribution of Thomas Hardy Nottage. Nottage Hill wines are at the heartland of the Hardys portfolio. Known for their consistency, approachable style and balance, Nottage Hill has become a favourite around the world.

Can Stalin Have a Successor?
Why the Dictator's Shoes Cannot Be Filled
- Abstract
The developments since Stalin's death have made it abundantly clear that Malenkov's immediate installation as Premier did not settle—as so many thought it would—the question of the "succession," so hotly discussed at the time. The amnesty granted to prisoners of certain categories; the about-face on the Kremlin doctors; the strictures against one-man rule; the increased talk about the "rights of individuals"; the condemnation of the cult of heroes; the near-disappearance of Stalin's name from the Soviet press; the apparent resurgence of Beria's power coupled with the failure of Malenkov to emerge as the dominant figure in the troika which is supposed to rule Russia today—these startling events have compelled many to recognize that Stalin's death created enormous problems for the Soviet regime which were not solved by the juggling of titles and positions in the top hierarchy.
But even more striking indications of the vast changes which the death of Stalin has brought about are to be found in the realm of foreign policy. The exchange of wounded prisoners in Korea; the sudden softening of Soviet diplomatic behavior; the release of William Oatis; the signing of the long-postponed Rumanian-Yugoslav treaty regarding control of the Danube; and the general effort at the establishment of a temporary modus vivendi with the West which has culminated in the Korean truce—this train of events has made it fairly apparent that the latest Soviet "peace offensive" was not an offensive at all, but an earnest attempt at establishing the lines in the cold war.

We offer two ways to locate information:
We have added the following products to your shopping cart from a previous visit:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
The pinnacle wine, exclusively from the best terroirs and grape selections, lengthily aged. 95% Carignano and 5% Bovaleddu, this fabulous red is so extract-rich and sugary the must has a hard time beginning fermentation! Maceration on the skins goes on for about 16 days, and élevage in Allier and Tronçais oak barriques lasts c. 18 months, previous to a further year and a half of bottle age. Cellar life: 7-8 years.
"The 2006 Carignano del Sulcis Superiore Terre Brune is an explosive, ripe wine graced with exquisite finesse in its dark fruit. It possesses considerable aromatic complexity as well as firm yet well-balanced tannins, both of which add considerable pedigree. Dark red fruit, flowers, licorice and sweet herbs are some of the nuances that are woven into the vivid, textured finish. This is a brilliant effort from Santadi. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2026." 93 Points The Wine Advocate
"Complex, showing mature notes of game, leather and caramelized mushrooms that follow through to a dark, supple core of plum sauce and dried wild berry. Well-balanced, with fine tannins and a long, savory finish." 92 Points Wine Spectator
"Deep saturated ruby. Expressive aromas of red cherry, blueberry and ink, lifted by musky spices. Sweet, smooth and very intensely flavored, with an opulent texture to its superripe red cherry, raspberry liqueur and strawberry jam flavors. Not quite as fine-grained as the 2007 Rocca Rubia but more luscious and soft in style, with perhaps a hint of residual sugar on the long, smooth, lightly peppery finish." 91 Points International Wine Cellar
Founded in 1960 in Sardinia and counting 988 acres of prime, gently rolling soil reaching out to the sea, Cantina Santadi is run under the strictest, most quality-based criteria.
The arenaceous terrain of Sulcis' coastline is unique in that pre-phylloxera rootstock survives and thrives: the finely textured, wind-swept sand naturally prevents phylloxera from depositing its eggs!
Add to this one of Italy's legendary and brilliant oenologists, Piero Cella... and what you have can only be a range of true Sardinian gems.

Included are photographs of dairy, sheep, poultry, tobacco, potato and Christmas tree farms as well as apple orchards, ice harvesting, and maple syrup production. There are wonderful scenic shots of farms showing the harvesting of wheat, haying, grazing cows, farm buildings, farm machinery, and horses pulling farm machinery. There are a number of photos showing Vermont's involvement in the Eastern States Exposition from 1929 to 1952 as well as other exhibitions and fairs. The Department's attempts to control pests and combat Dutch Elm disease are also documented. These photos are valuable evidence of Vermont's changing agricultural life.

A painting at the inaugural luncheon wasn't the only piece of Niagara Falls on display during the inaugural ceremonies Monday. YNN's Meg Rossman shows us how the nation's capitol saw the sweeter side of Niagara Falls and what it means for a local business.
It turns out Niagara Falls was in the spotlight in a sweet way during President Barack Obama's inauguration Monday.
"We brought 500 individual pieces and did ten individual picture frames all pertaining to the Falls," MaryAnn Hess said.
And they were all made of chocolate. "People were just standing in front of our table screaming saying they couldn't believe they were chocolate."
Hess spent weeks crafting the edible frames and medallions after receiving an invite to display her creations at the Inaugural Gala.
"It was just nice to do something for Niagara Falls, for where we live."
The barber by trade started Niagara's Honeymoon Sweets seven years ago out of her Cleveland Avenue basement and never dreamed her creations would make it all the way to the White House.
"I started it for my grandson who was four at the time," she explained. "And he had some medical issues with Crohn's and we did it just to help with some extra expenses with him."
That small gesture led to Hess' trip to D.C. and some major opportunities.
"I never intended to go to Washington or meet Nik Wallenda, he's wonderful," she said.
It's likely Hess, who donates a portion of the profits from her Daredevil Chocolates line to local causes, will be rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous again soon. Following her success in Washington, Hess and her chocolate frames will be heading to the Emmy's and Grammy's this spring.
"Chocolate can bring you nice places, because everybody loves chocolate!"
For information on how you can get your hands on some of Niagara's Honeymoon Sweets visit Niagara's Honeymoon Sweets.

To get to the Greyhound station from the Airport, you can take the Metro bus at the south side of Terminal C. Metro Bus 102 picks up on the south side of Terminal C street level (baggage claim) and stops at the downtown Metro station.

650ml Bottle received in trade with Rejtable - thanks! Best before Oct 2013
Appearance - Clear gold colour with an average size white coloured head. There is an average amount of carbonation showing and there is some good lacing. The head lasted for around 3-4 minutes before it was gone.
Smell - Malts, hops, caramel, apricots, grapefruit
Taste & Mouth - There is an average amount of carbonation and I can taste malts, caramel, and grassy hops. There is also some apricots and grapefruit.
Overall - Really good stuff. I've had a few other IPA/APA's from this brewer and this beer seems to have more of what they are lacking. More sweetness, more fruitiness, and more hops. I'd pick this up again if it was available locally.

An oft-cited "subdued" example of a double IPA but don't be fooled. One of the better IPAs on the Western Canadian scene in terms of flavor complexity and the hops are not subtle although this does qualify as a moderate hop bomb. Pours a nice amber/weak orange juice hue with about three fingers of straw-colored foam. Aroma skews towards the orange end of citrus, fermented pineapple, some harsh woody and resin notes, sweet caramel malt. Taste is an amazing layered cocktail of grapefruit, lemon, lime, brown sugar, cashews, pine resin. The body is surprisingly light for a double IPA but there is some of the classic stickiness and oil. Sure enough the bitterness emerges after the citrus fruit and it actually hits you in the bag a bit after that fruit/nut beginning. The alcohol is almost completely masked and one could imagine getting plastered on this in short order (not that most sane individuals do a double IPA session). With each taste there seems to be a different emphasis, about halfway through there was a lot of lime, later on there were some bitter nut flavors (walnuts?) and earthy alkaline spice almost like turmeric. Several beer books describe cinnamon which I didn't get at all, perhaps this is just my palate. There's spice all right, it was just more earthy than sweet brown spice to me. This is a top tier brew in my book and a really nice balance between hoppy power and aromatic elegance. A beautiful weapon like a samurai sword.

Patricia Akello of Uganda speaks with ninth grade students Nov. 7 at Sand Creek High School in Falcon School District 49. Akello was part of a team of young adults from Invisible Children, an organization campaigning for civil rights in Africa, providing four presentations in the high school, one for each grade level. The team expects to finish a 10-week tour next week, reaching 70 locations, including schools, universities and places of worship. In March, Invisible Children's documentary "Kony 2012" quickly attracted millions of views on the video-sharing websites YouTube and Vimeo, generating global awareness about Joseph Kony of the Lord's Resistance Army, exposing his more than 20 years of abducting, killing and displacing civilians in eastern and central Africa. Sixteen years ago, Akello lost her older brother to the LRA. Now 24 years old, she's helping Invisible Children raise awareness of Kony's actions. "All life is important, it's all human life," she said. As an International Baccalaureate school, Sand Creek High School is focused on promoting global citizenry. Part of its IB curriculum involves opportunities for students to influence their communities, locally and globally. "We want to empower our students and help them to empower others," says Ron Hamilton, assistant principal. "We have a strong focus on service learning and Invisible Children is a service group that travels all over the country."

Looking stylish in mint and white dress, Salma Hayek made her grand arrival at the Promenade des Planches to promote her film Savages during the 38th Deauville American Film Festival on Saturday, September 8th, 2012 in Deauville, France. Salma's husband Francois-Henri Pinault and their daughter Valentina were spotted beach-side supporting the Latina beauty.
Oliver Stone's Savages was one of my favorite movies of the year and I can't think of anyone better to represent it than the 46-year-old. Hayek stars as Elena, the bad ass leader of a drug cartel who kidnapped the girlfriend of two drug dealers (played by hotties Taylor Kitsch and Aaron Taylor-Johnson) who cultivated some of the finest marijuana in the world.
As "La Madrina", Salma had some of the chicest outfits (and funky wig) that I have seen in quite awhile. Not to mention the way she bossed around minions played by Benicio Del Toro and Demián Bichir was EPIC!
If you missed it in theaters do not fret, Savages will be out on Blu-Ray/DVD on November 13th. You can pre-order Savages via this link.

Well, That Didn't Last Long: The Tides is No Longer a King & Grove Hotel
We were super excited back in late 2011 when up and coming boutique brand, King & Grove Hotels, took over the The Tides South Beach, namely because they were outfitting the place with free WiFi.
Now two years on, King & Grove is out at the Tides. They've removed the Miami property from their website and the Tides is just a stand-alone property. We're working on tracking down a reason for the split but King & Grove has been going through some big changes recently.
However, we bet the folks at Viceroy Hotels are fuming right now, especially since they had to de-brand their Tides Hotels spin-offs in Zihuatanejo, Rivera Maya and St. Lucia after they lost out on The Tides to K&G.
Whatever the reason for the switcheroo, it doesn't seem to be affecting the hotel's room rates. We found a "Best Available Rate" on their website this weekend for $525 a night. Fortunately, the WiFi is still free.
Big props to @DeeTCL for the heads-up

Perhaps This is a Clue as to What's Going on With King & Grove Hotels in LA
On Monday, we were wondering what was going on with King & Grove's first Los Angeles hotel, The Hotel Clark. During a recent swing by the property, everything looked good and ready to go. But we couldn't determine the hold-up. We had heard whispers of city approval and union issues but it may have been more complex than that.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Ed Scheetz who co-founded the brand with Ben Pundole, (who has since fled to Edition Hotels) and Robert McKinley who has continued to work on Ruschmeyer's in the Hamptons, has just bought the five hotels currently under the K&G brand back from owner Joseph Chetrit of The Chetrit Group. That includes the troubled Hotel Chelsea which Scheetz is now "rebuilding from the inside out."
What that doesn't include, as far as we can tell, is the Hotel Clark nor the second LA hotel K&G was planning for downtown. Which would leave The Hotel Clark without a management company. This probably explains the delay in opening but still, we doubt the Hotel Clark would have a tough time finding a management company for very long. Surely, someone out there must have signed a deal with the Chetrit Group. Hey, super secret hotel tipsters? We're all ears.

What's Happening with King & Grove's Hotel Clark in Los Angeles?
The Hotel Clark doesn't quite have the green light.
UPDATE: The hotel might not be a King & Grove after all. Read the latest here.
After we did a drive-by of the Ace Hotel Downtown Los Angeles last week, we had to backtrack and go up Hill Street to see how King & Grove's first Los Angeles hotel, The Hotel Clark was coming along.
From what we could tell, things look practically ready to go. The signage is up and looking good and we even spied some fancy spherical lighting fixtures at what looks like the entrance. Except it was all gated off.

Where to Stay in The Hamptons This Summer (and How Much It Will Cost)
While the extremely well-off have their own mansions in The Hamptons to motor helicopter out to every weekend this summer, the rest of us will have to make do with some temporary lodgings.
If you don't feel like sharing a house with eight randoms or if you think you will only make it out for a couple of weekends, then hotels are the way to go. And fortunately, the Hamptons have been making some headway in the hotel scene, mainly in Montauk.
Here are 6 hotels you may want to check into to check out the Hamptons scene. Warning: They are expensive, even during the week.
1. Surf Lodge: The Surf Lodge in Montauk is known more for its nightlife, which includes stellar concert performances every weekend (Willie Nelson!), and its restaurant, Byron, rather than its hotel rooms but should you lay your weary but well-coiffed head here you won't be disappointed by the breezy light colors and the beachy, if minimalist, decor.
Rates start at $495 a night for a room with a queen bed in mid-June. But rooms seem to be going fast.
2. The Crow's Nest Inn and Restaurant, Lake Montauk: Run by hotelier Sean MacPherson, the Crow's Nest is a very intimate hotel about a mile and a half miles east of Montauk with just 14 rooms, each with a king bed and a private deck. If you love the Bowery and the Maritime Hotels, then Crow's Nest is right up your Hamptons getaway alley. The property also has a two bedroom cottage available for rent and Guest of a Guest reports that two more cottages named The David Pharaoh Cottages (named after the last Native American king of Montauk), will be available for rent soon as well. These will have access to a private beach, along with kitchenettes and a private lakefront patio.
Rooms start at $500 a night for a weekend in mid-June. The cottages will, of course, be much higher.
3. Montauk Yacht Club Resort and Marina : This is a full-service resort with four restaurants and bars, a spa, two outdoor pools, family and kids programs and as promised, boats. Lots of boats. Real Housewives love this place too since Kelly Bensimon will be hosting a book signing party there on Saturday, June 1 from 3 to 5pm. Her book? "In the Spirit of The Hamptons." Fitting!
Rates start at $499 a night for an Admiral room with two double beds or a Villa room with a king bed.

[UPDATED] Where To Find Free Hotel WiFi In NYC: 2013 Edition
We brought you the 2013 WiFi Report last week, and today we're here to tell you which hotels in NYC you can count on for free WiFi. Here are a few of our faves�
Indigo Chelsea: This isn't the kind of place you go for a buzzing lobby scene or super luxe rooms. However, with a super-friendly staff and great midtown location, you can't go wrong. Rates from $293/night.
Ace Hotel: Sure, there's free WiFi. But with all the action going on at this hotel (lobby bar, Breslin restaurant, shops, and basement performance venue), will you actually get any work done? Rates from $289/night.
Andaz Fifth Avenue: Fifth Avenue shoppers will love this WiFi-enabled gem, where you can spend the day hitting up Louis Vuitton and Bergdorf Goodman, and then come home and play with those awesome welcome amenities. Rates from $432/night.

King & Grove May Open Their First LA Hotel This Summer
Last we checked, the boutique hotel firm King & Grove was planning two properties for the downtown LA area. While neither hotel had a firm opening date, we may not have to wait much longer.
A Downtown News report cited Chetrit group officials (the folk who own the building) saying a June opening was possible for the Hotel Clark on Hill Street.
We checked in with the downtown LA expert, Brigham Yen, who runs the DTLA Rising website, and he said a June opening "might be a little ambitious", but he believes the opening is imminent--maybe as soon as this summer. Yen said the interior of the property is pretty much done and when he walked by the property a week and a half ago and there were already "drastic" improvements to the exterior from when he last posted on the property on March 21. Plus the rooftop pool is already finished!
Of course, a June opening could always get sidelined by the liquor license process (already a group has opposed it for this hotel) and the long wait time to receive a certificate of occupancy. Yet considering the plans to turn the historic Hotel Clark have been in the works since 2008, we'll be ready whenever this joint opens up. No word on what the rates will be like but we're hoping it'll be less than $200 a night.

Downtown LA's Latest Hotel Scene Is An Ace, a Virgin, and a King
It's been a longtime coming but it looks like Downtown Los Angeles is about to get the hotel renaissance it so desperately needs. With the exception of the awful tragedy last month, the chatter about the downtown LA hotel scene has us tremendously excited. Here are updates on the hotels we look forward to seeing:
ACE HOTEL DOWNTOWN LA: So far things are still very much a go for the Ace Hotel and its website promises a 2013 opening. Yay! We can't wait to see what they do with the landmarked United Artists building, a former movie theater built in 1927. We're guessing the vibe will be film noir heavy but don't forget, this Ace will also have a pool.

What's Up with King & Grove Williamsburg?
King & Grove Williamsburg, or, as it was formerly known, Hotel Williamsburg, made a pretty big splash when it first opened in 2011 as Williamsburg's first proper boutique hotel. With a nice big flashy outdoor pool deck, a rooftop, and even a trendy restaurant with locally-sourced ingredients, all the elements seemed in place.
Then things started to go wrong. First, the restaurant got shut down after being open for just one month. Shortly after, the hotel announced it had been taken over by King & Grove, with "exciting changes" on the way (that we've yet to see).
Then, last May, The Wythe Hotel opened two blocks away, trumping K&G Williamsburg in almost every way (original design, hip crowd, view-tastic rooftop bar, and a restaurant that actually stayed open).
Now, a year later, we're wondering what's up with King & Grove Williamsburg?

Tickets To King & Grove Williamsburg's Semi-Public Pool Are On Sale Now
We said way, way back in 2011 we predicted that King & Grove Williamsburg's pool would likely be the most talked-about part of the hotel. For two reasons: 1) hanging out "by the cabanas" is kind of a rare thing to do in Brooklyn, and 2) the hotel's opening coincided with the big re-opening of a public pool across the street that likely wasn't going to be big enough to fit the entire neighborhood.
Needless to say, both pools have become pretty in-demand.
But now, K&G Williamsburg has installed a new online reservation system that sells pool tickets to non-hotel guests. But the tickets don't come cheap. And like most things in New York, the scene can get very crowded very fast.

Looks Like Gene 'Tri-Pack' Kaufman Will Be Adding His Special Touch To The Bossert Hotel
The Observer brings us the latest on Brooklyn's upcoming Bossert Hotel. Though with all the new details emerging on this place, we're still not quite sure what to make of it.
We learned in May that the historic Jehovah's Witness HQ would be converted back into a boutique hotel. And since then, it's also come out that some of the guys at King & Grove will be vaguely associated with the hotel, yet it definitely won't be tied to any national chain or brand. Hm.
Yet Kaufman, a designer mainly credited with big-brand projects in NYC like GEM Union Square, the world's tallest Holiday Inn, and the Holiday Inn Express-Candlewood Suites-Hampton Inn "tri-pack" on 39th St, is the one who's been chosen to tackle the Bossert. Will he be able to switch gears so easily?

King & Grove Hotels Lose Key Founder But May Partner Up with Jeff Klein
It's been a busy year for King & Grove Hotels, the boutique hotel brand started by former Morgans Hotel Group CEO Ed Scheetz and Ben Pundole, the former Director of Entertainment at Morgans. (You may remember him as the man who brought SPiN Ping Pong to the Mondrian LA.)
King & Grove started out just over a year ago with two boutique properties in the Hamptons before going on to assume management of The Tides South Beach, the Hotel Williamsburg, the Hotel Chelsea and the Hotel Lola as well as plotting out two hotels for downtown Los Angeles. But it looks like all the fast expansion has taken its toll on the brand's foundation--specifically Pundole.
The NY Post reports that Pundole resigned from K&G on Thursday after the promise of ownership and control of the company from Scheetz and K&G's other owner Joseph Chetrit--whose Chetrit Group has bought several of the hotels that K&G is operating--fell through. A source gave the lowdown on the exit to the Post:
Ben has been treated pretty unfairly. Ben created Ruschmeyer�s, which has been a wild success, and was the creator of this new hotel brand. He found and hired most of the employees and even found the Williamsburg, which they purchased on his suggestion, and now he�s walking away with nothing. Chetrit and Scheetz are taking his hard work, contacts and hip following.

King & Grove Picks Up Another Hotel in NYC, The Hotel Lola
Her name was Lola, she was an independent hotel before being picked up by King & Grove.
King & Grove Hotels have been on an acquisition spree since the beginning of the year, picking up the Hotel Wiliamsburg and The Hotel Chelsea as well as planning two hotels for downtown Los Angeles. (We're still trying to confirm if they have picked up The Versailles in Miami. So far, nothing is final.)
Now our deep throat hotel sources tell us King & Grove has added another NYC hotel to their stylish portfolio--Hotel Lola on 29th and Madison.

Tasks widget with group status information |
With or without this additional information, the number of clicks to get to a window in a group is the same. Click once on the group, and then again in the resulting popup. If compositing is active, you can also just hover the group and then click on a window thumbnail.
I could not think of a single time when the extra visual information of the arrow and number ever provided value to me, and I struggled to come up with a use case where it might. So I patched out the group status information just to see what it looks like and to see if it would negatively impact how it works. It took all of probably two minutes to do and I've been using the tasks widget since without grouping status information, as can be seen in the shot below:
Tasks widget without group status information |
Visual simplicity, however, should usually not trump utility, however, so I'm trying to come up with uses for the group status information. Just because I can't think of one off the top of my head does not mean that a use case does not exist. So I thought I would ask you! Do you find this group status information useful? If so, why? If not, would you prefer it not to be there? Leave your answer in the comments section below!
Even if you don't have input to share, you at least get a glimpse into the sort of banal questions we get to ponder when working on Plasma. Not everything is about exciting shiny new toys after all. :)
Update: Decided to try another possibility: show grouping by painting the icon twice, once full color and a second time faded. Keeps the visibility of "this is a group" without taking up more space and with less visual noise. Not convinced by this, but was something that occurred to me as a possibility. :)
Using a visual "stacking" of the icon to denote a group. |
p.p.s. Please also ignore that the task icons are a different size than the other icons on the panel. I'm considering possible improvements for that too as all icons being the same consistent size, at least when there is just one row in the tasks widget, would be rather spiffy.
p.p.p.s. I am not interested in suggestions to replace the tasks plasmoid with some other plasmoid in the default layout. That is a separate discussion, and I'd like to focus on this one specific issue here.

Well-planned plant-based diets can support healthy lifestyles at every age, from pre-parenthood, through pregnancy and breast-feeding, childhood and adulthood, and on into later years.
Your diet during pregnancy and that of your infant during the first year of life can affect your childs health 40, 50 or even 60 years later. It is therefore of utmost importance that during pregnancy you and your baby are provided with good nutrition. During pregnancy you will require extra nutrition to support your growing foetus and to allow for changes in your body.
Several studies have examined the nutrient intakes of vegan children. One study of British school-age children published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics in 1992 found that vegan children had higher intakes of fibre, and that intakes of all vitamins and minerals studied (with the exception of calcium) were comparable with those of meat-eating children. Vegan pre-schoolers in the US were found to have generous intakes of protein, vitamins and minerals, and their diets exceeded recommended intakes for all nutrients studied with the exception of calcium. Finally, vegan children have been shown to have lower intakes of fat, saturated fat and cholesterol than non-vegetarian children.
The study showing lower calcium intakes by vegan pre-schoolers was conducted before calcium-fortified products were readily available, so calcium intakes of vegan children may be higher now. Calcium is important for bone development. Around 45% of adult bone mass is accrued before 8 years of age, another 45% is added between 8-16 years of age, and a further 10% accumulates in the next decade. Given the importance of calcium intake during childhood, all parents should ensure that their children's diets contain calcium-rich foods and meet current recommendations for calcium for their age group.
Reports in the medical press of vegan infants suffering protein and energy deficiencies are extremely rare. In some instances infants were weaned onto poorly planned fruitarian or macrobiotic regimes rather than vegan diets. In other cases parents had not adopted veganism but instead had eliminated foods fromtheir infants' diets on a piecemeal basis and without seeking proper advice.
It is believed that the foundations for many chronic diseases of adulthood have their beginnings in childhood. For instance, processes initiating atherosclerosis and high blood pressure are thought to start very early in life, and blood pressure and cholesterol levels have been shown to track from early childhood and to be related to childhood nutrient intakes. Body mass also tracks from early childhood, with obese children being at an increased risk of obesity in adulthood.
Vegan diets may introduce children to a greater variety of whole plant foods, thus establishing healthful lifelong eating habits.

Bruce Sterling – "The Singularity: Your Future as a Black Hole"
June 14th, 02004 by Stewart Brand
Your future as a black hole
One reason lots of people don't want to think long term these days is because technology keeps accelerating so rapidly, we assume the world will become unrecognizable in a few years and then move on to unimaginable. Long-term thinking must be either impossible or irrelevant.
The commonest shorthand term for the runaway acceleration of technology is "the Singularity"—a concept introduced by science fiction writer Vernor Vinge in 1984. The term has been enthusiastically embraced by technology historians, futurists, extropians, and various trans-humanists and post-humanists…

For perfect cream puffs, be sure to heat the oven 10 to 15 minutes before baking. Bake the puffs until they're golden brown and their shape is set. Slitting the puffs with the tip of a knife will allow steam to escape and prevent a soggy interior.
Remove ice cream balls from the freezer 10 minutes before assembling the dessert. This will allow the ice cream to soften slightly for easier eating.

Ever want to stop a stupid person and mf them?
Every so often in Chesterfield I see this middle aged woman on a mountain bike pulling an enclosed kid trailer.
I find it disturbing that she is doing this during heavy traffic on the road shoulder. The part that really bugs me is she is right on the edge of the road (on the shoulder) when she could be a bit more over away from traffic! Now last night she is a good several miles away from where I usually see her towing the kid trailer. Again on the shoulder right next to a lane of traffic, but this time at 9 at night where there are zero street lights! I could barely see her! No reflectors at all! I just hope there is no kid in that enclosed trailer No, I did not run her down! Last edited by Immortal; March 17th, 2013 at 08:20 AM. |

Your Nebels are Werfed.
What we're seeing here is the "bystander effect" in full motion. It's an extremely dangerous situation for a child to be in but instead of someone stopping and actually asking her about it everyone continues to drive on.

March 17th, 2013, 08:29 AM | #7 |
I don't think so. It's more like, wtf. "I would never do that scenario "
Justifying myself a bit, but in the area I see this woman there is a lot of local pd traffic so "if" she were in violation of a traffic law I am certain she would have been cited or arrested by now. |

It's pretty much nationwide. And x2 on it being a beer trailer.

For what? So she can tell me to fawk off?
Only way I could feel better about the possibility of a child being in that trailer so close to traffic is if I were never to see it again. If that is her only means of transportation she will always at some point in time have to play in traffic. So in short, I won't. |

Yes, but not in my neighborhood.. I have to get out to the main roads. I suppose I could have been more clear. There are sidewalks almost everywhere in my city or township.. whatever the hell it is.

I hate it when I'm on the road, and there is a ton of interesting stuff near the hotel to see- and no sidewalks.

Technically it is illegal to ride a bicycle on a sidewalk. Though it is a law that is rarely enforced and typically is a local ordinance not a state law....but in most cases you technically should not ride a bicycle on a sidewalk.
I'm just amazed that immortal's drunk ass didn't run this lady over. |
March 17th, 2013, 12:47 PM | #17 |
Covered in mud...
In Michigan, it is legal to ride on all sidewalks, unless the local municipality has specifically prohibited it (such as Royal Oak). In such a case, the ban must be posted with signs, otherwise it is not enforceable.
MICHIGAN VEHICLE CODE (EXCERPT) Act 300 of 1949 257.660c Operation of bicycle upon sidewalk or pedestrian crosswalk. Sec. 660c. (1) An individual operating a bicycle upon a sidewalk or a pedestrian crosswalk shall yield the right-of-way to pedestrians and shall give an audible signal before overtaking and passing a pedestrian. (2) An individual shall not operate a bicycle upon a sidewalk or a pedestrian crosswalk if that operation is prohibited by an official traffic control device. (3) An individual lawfully operating a bicycle upon a sidewalk or a pedestrian crosswalk has all of the rights and responsibilities applicable to a pedestrian using that sidewalk or crosswalk.

A bike has a legal right to be there. With that being said what she chooses to do beyond that is none of your fucking business.

Catch the wave
this will make me seem like a callous dickwad - but it's NOT my responsibility to wear a cape and try to rescue all of the windowlicking mouthbreathers and their offspring. If this country was so damned worried about the children we'd actually as a country parent them - not sit them in front of a TV, and then expect the schools to raise them (this of course for the ones that are actually carried to term and not terminated as a "collection of cells")
I have places to be, craps to dump, my own kids to see, dinner to eat or what-have-you. yes this is inconsistent with my core/essential beliefs. I'm a hypocrite - deal with it. |

In the today's high-speed world, if you don't keep up you're lost.
Do you ever wonder if there's more to this crazed pursuit of personal success?
There is! Become a volunteer!
Independent Sector says that about one out of five people will volunteer voluntarily....
...and nine people out of ten will volunteer when they are asked!
So, what do you say? Want to help out?
You benefit all around
When you volunteer, you help others and yourself.
Independent Sector finds that nine out of ten teenage volunteers gain self-satisfaction, learn to be helpful, kind, and to respect others from their service work.
There are many other benefits, too. By volunteering you:
Have fun with your friends;
Meet new people, and build a network of contacts;
Learn new skills;
Feel appreciated for your contributions;
Explore career options, gain experience, and build a resume;
Be part of a team, and even become a leader.
It doesn't matter what kind of work you're doing when you volunteer. It feels good to help people who are less fortunate than you, and it can be really fun.
Don't think of it as a job, though many volunteer opportunities are similar to paying jobs because they require applications. They want to know your qualifications and background.
You should check out the group's credentials, too. Volunteer with only well-known charities or groups that have references you and your parents can check.
Where do you begin?
The hardest part of volunteer work is choosing what cause to help. There are hundreds of organizations that need you.
Think about what interests you and the skills you possess or would like to learn. Consider if you want to help adults, your peers, or children.
If you're not sure where to start or what you're interested in, there are a lot of resources that can help you.
Here's where to look:
- School: Teachers and counselors often have ideas about organizations that need help, or may be organizing a group project you can join.
A national program called Learning in Deed promotes service-learning by combining meaningful service experiences with curriculum-based learning.
You can search online for places to volunteer too!Church: Most churches have on-going service projects to help the needy, such as food pantries and shelter for the homeless. Some even have special mission trips so you can travel and help people in other countries.
The media: Many groups appeal for help by asking the newspaper or radio and television stations to publicize their cause. You'll hear about the Salvation Army bell ringers, and how you can help this twice-a-year event.
Your neighborhood: Take a look around. There may be someone who could use your help. For example, you could something as small as mow an elderly person's lawn or clean-up litter at a local park.
Check out a neighborhood association newsletter, or visit the community center in your neighborhood, to find other activities you can participate in.
- Clubs or special interest groups: Boy Scouts has collaborated with several organizations to create Good Turn for America.
Good Turn is committed to doing something about hunger, lack of adequate shelter, and poor health in America.
Girl Scouts and 4-H also offer different ways to volunteer.
Make a life
Winston Churchill once said, "we make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give."
Please give your time and talents to someone else and make the world a better place for all of us to live.

Neck pain is discomfort in any of the structures in the neck. These include muscles and nerves as well as spinal vertebrae and the cushioning disks in between.
See also:
Pain - neck; Neck stiffness
When your neck is sore, you may have difficulty moving it, especially to one side. Many people describe this as having a stiff neck.
If neck pain involves nerves, you may feel numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arm, hand, or elsewhere.
A common cause of neck pain is muscle strain or tension. Usually, everyday activities are to blame. Such activities include bending over a desk for hours, having poor posture while watching TV or reading, placing your computer monitor too high or too low, sleeping in an uncomfortable position, or twisting and turning the neck in a jarring manner while exercising.
Extreme accidents or falls can cause severe neck injuries like vertebral fractures, whiplash, blood vessel injury, and even paralysis.
Other causes include:
For minor, common causes of neck pain:
You may want to reduce your activity only for the first couple of days. Then slowly resume your usual activities. Do not perform activities that involve heavy lifting or twisting of your back or neck for the first 6 weeks after the pain begins. After 2 - 3 weeks, slowly resume exercise. A physical therapist can help you decide when to begin stretching and strengthening exercises and how to do them.
Avoid the following exercises during your initial recovery, unless your doctor or physical therapist says it is okay:
Seek immediate medical help if:
Call your health care provider if:
Your doctor or nurse will perform a physical examination and ask questions about your neck pain, including how often it occurs and how much it hurts. Other questions may include:
These questions help your doctor determine the cause of your neck pain and whether it is likely to quickly get better with simple measures such as ice, mild painkillers, physical therapy, and proper exercises. Most of the time, neck pain will get better in 4 - 6 weeks using these approaches.
Your doctor or nurse will probably not order any tests during the first visit, unless you have symptoms or a medical history that suggests a tumor, infection, fracture, or serious nerve disorder. In that case, the following tests may be done:
If the pain is due to muscle spasm or a pinched nerve, your health care provider may prescribe a muscle relaxant and possibly a more powerful pain reliever. Over-the-counter medications often work as well as prescription drugs. The health care provider may prescribe a neck collar or, if there is nerve damage, refer you to a neurologist or neurosurgeon for consultation.
If your doctor or nurse thinks your neck pain may be due to meningitis, you will be sent to an emergency department for further tests and treatment.

Active Standard ASTM D5281 | Developed by Subcommittee: D22.03
Book of Standards Volume: 11.07
Historical (view previous versions of standard)
Significance and Use
5.1 Hexavalent chromium has been shown to be a human respiratory carcinogen in epidemiological studies when humans are exposed to relatively high airborne concentrations. Such high exposures may also induce dermal sensitization to hexavalent chromium in humans (5).
5.2 Ambient atmospheric concentrations of hexavalent chromium are well below detection limits of sampling methods including Test Method D3586 and NIOSH-7600 (2).
5.3 Objective assessment of ambient atmospheric concentrations of hexavalent chromium provides a means of evaluating exposures to atmospheric hexavalent chromium in a manner that can be related to health-based risk levels. Collecting such actual monitoring data reduces or eliminates the need for theoretical resuspension modeling and provides improved basis for health assessments of potential exposures (5).
5.4 The buffered impinger sampling technique provides pH control of the sampling medium, which stabilizes the oxidation state of hexavalent chromium during sampling (6) .
5.5 Ion chromatography provides a means of separating the hexavalent chromium from other species present in the sample, many of which interfere with other detection methods. The combination of this separation with a sensitive colorimetric detection method provides a selective and sensitive analytical method for hexavalent chromium with minimal sample preparation (1).
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the collection and measurement of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] in the ambient atmosphere.
1.2 This test method collects and stabilizes atmospheric hexavalent chromium using an alkaline impinger buffer solution in a wet impingement sampling technique. Lead chromate [PbCrO4], generally considered poorly soluble in water, is soluble in the impinger solution up to 940 μg/L as hexavalent chromium.
1.3 This test method measures hexavalent chromium using an ion chromatographic separation combined with a post separation reaction with a colorimetric reagent and photometric detection.
1.4 This test method is applicable in the range from 0.2 to 100 ng/m3 of hexavalent chromium in the atmosphere assuming 20 m3 of air sample. The range can be extended upwards by appropriate dilution.
1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The inch-pound units given in parentheses are for information only.
1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
