Nikkei ends above 11,000 for first time in 33 months
TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's Nikkei average ended above 11,000 points for the first time in 33 months on Wednesday, led by gains in exporters and interest rate-sensitive sectors such as real estate on persistent expectations of more monetary easing by the Bank of Japan.
The Nikkei jumped 2.3 percent to 11,113.95, its highest close since April 23, 2010.
Gains in Yahoo Japan Corp (4689.T) and Softbank Corp (9984.T) on optimistic profit expectations also gave a boost to Tokyo stocks, while earnings-related news dominated the market as investors awaited trading cues from the corporate sector.
"The market is surprisingly bullish even though it's before the FOMC meeting. The investors have already been buying stocks quite aggressively," said Fumiyuki Nakanishi, general manager of investment and research at SMBC Friend Securities.
"If Fed Chairman Bernanke makes positive comments on the U.S. economy later today, the dollar could strengthen further against yen to hit 92 yen. Then the Nikkei average would rise further, heading towards 12,000."
Index heavyweight Softbank rose 3.6 percent after Dish Network Corp (DISH.O) decided against filing to block Sprint Nextel Corp's (S.N) proposed deal with the Japanese mobile operator, at least for now, citing its ongoing negotiations with Clearwire Corp CLWR.O and uncertainty over that company's ownership.
The Nikkei business daily also said Softbank likely generated an operating profit of about 590 billion yen for nine months ended December, up 10 percent on the year. The company is to report earnings on Thursday.
Yahoo Japan surged 17.1 percent after it said it planned to buy back up to 20 billion yen of its own shares, or 1.4 percent of its issued stock.
Real estate companies climbed 3.5 percent and were the top sectoral performer on expectations the central bank would step up its monetary policy easing.
The dollar was at 90.95 yen, near Monday's 31-month high of around 91.25 yen. The yen has been mostly a one-way bet since mid-November, based on expectations that Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe would push the Bank of Japan into more aggressive monetary easing to beat deflation.
The Nikkei has risen 28 percent since mid-November, when Abe, then a candidate for leader of the opposition and now prime minister, began calling for aggressive monetary easing in his election campaign.
The broader Topix gained 1.5 percent to 934.67, with 3.13 billion shares changing hands, down from 3.47 billion on Tuesday and last week's daily average of 3.44 billion.
With quarterly earnings for the October-December period in the spotlight, analysts said that investors were focused on prospects for the fiscal year ending March 2014 as they start scrutinising companies' financial details such as how far a recently weak yen can push up bottom lines.
"Before, investors were like 'just buy bellwether Japan stocks', but now they are being selective," said Hiromichi Tamura, chief strategist at Nomura Securities.
"Many of them still want to add more Japanese shares to their portfolios, and companies that are reporting strong results and forecasts are in focus."
"Investors have shifted their focus to prospects for the full-year (ending this March) as well as next year (through March 2014)," said Hiroichi Nishi, an assistant general manager of equity investment at SMBC Nikko Securities.
After the bell, Canon Inc (7751.T) said it expected a 26.6 percent rise in operating profit this year as it cuts costs and gets a boost to revenues from a weakening yen, although the rise fell short of analysts' expectations.
The stock was up 2.9 percent before the results announcement.
Komatsu Ltd (6301.T) reversed its earlier losses to end 2.2 percent higher as investors bet on strong fourth-quarter performance even though the world's second-biggest maker of construction machinery cut its earnings guidance for the financial year to March.

Privacy groups protest proposed E-Verify bill
ACLU, EEF, others say Legal Workforce Act would result in large, government-controlled 'error-prone' database of highly sensitive information
Computerworld - A proposal to force employers to use the federal E-Verify system to vet new employees has stoked widespread privacy concerns.
The American Civil Liberties Union, the Liberty Coalition, the Electronic Frontier Foundation and several other civil liberties, privacy and labor groups last week urged Congress to reject the Legal Workforce Act of 2011.
The bill, introduced by U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, would require that all U.S employers use E-Verify determine whether new hires and current employees can legally work in the U.S.
Only federal contractors are currently required to use E-Verify, an Internet-based employment eligibility verification system, though laws have been proposed in several states to mandate its use.
Smith's bill would require that all employers compare information supplied by current and prospective employees with information contained in Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Social Security Administration (SSA) databases.
As part of the verification process, the Social Security number provided by new hires would be compared with the name on record.
Smith's bill also proposes a pilot biometric authentication program that would let employers fingerprint employees as part of the vetting process.
The bill calls for penalties of up to $25,000 per violation and imprisonment of at least one year for employers who refuse to use E-Verify.
Backers say the goal of the bill is to curb illegal immigration to the U.S.
"Despite record unemployment, seven million people work in the U.S. illegally," Smith said in a statement accompanying the bill when it was filed last month. "These jobs should go to legal workers."
Civil rights and privacy groups, however, contend that it would lead to the creation of a huge database containing highly sensitive information. The database would be hard to protect and be ripe for misuse, the groups said in a letter addressed to the full membership of the U.S. House.
"A nationwide mandatory E-Verify system would be one of the largest and most widely accessible databases of private information ever created in the U.S." the advocacy groups wrote. "Its size and openness would present an irresistible target for identity thieves."
The scope of the data in the system could also prompt U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies to use it for other purposes, the letter said.
"Because E-Verify contains photos and will very soon contain drivers' license information, it could quickly evolve into a national identity system," the groups warned.
In a blog post, Adi Kamdar of the EFF said the proposed bill would create a "bureaucratic nightmare for American businesses" while offering little to combat illegal immigration. At the same time, the plan would become "an enticement to malicious hackers and an enormous risk of unintended disclosure," Kamdar said.
Those opposed to E-Verify have long maintained that it improperly flags a large number of eligible workers as ineligible for U.S. employment.
In its letter to Congress, the coalition of civil rights and privacy groups said the bill would, "for the first time in history, require every American to be checked against an error-prone government database. The risks to individual privacy are too great and the likely benefits are too small to justify inserting the federal government into every hiring decision made,"
In a press conference on immigration issues last week, President Barack Obama expressed similar concerns in calling for improvements to the E-Verify system.

The Duggar family makes me so happy.
One thing that inspired this song was when we went on our very first headling tour a few years ago. I used to stand there before I went on stage, and I would listen to the crowd making the most amazing, magical, loud screaming sounds. I would hear it and I would sit there and think 'I can't believe I get to hear that sound one time in my life.' That I could never get this melody out of of my head until I finally wrote a new song and I called that song 'Long Live.' Thank you so much for screaming for us. This song is completely, a hundred percent for you.

What can I say about this place. Every time I come into town this is the place I always end up at least once. I love their beer, I have tried a number of them and have suffered the consequences, but you know it was worth it. They has such great beers from the Shiva to the Ninja and I have tried a few others in between. They also have a great selection of the harder stuff if you are so inclined and the pizza is some of the best around. They also have a t.vs everywhere a great milieu in general. I love the poppers too! I could rave on about this place for days but I will end here. Any one who hasn't been, go! They have some of the best in house brews in a town known for great beer!

Great atmosphere! Keep in mind its Asheville so don't expect speedy service. Beers are decent. Pizza is awesome as well as most of the options on the menu. All around its worth trying. The location on Merrimon Ave has $3 movies where you can order food/beer in the theater(=awsome). They also have a kids theater that plays cartoons and has arcade games and picnic tables/booths for when mom and dad needs a beer and kid needs to run around. Has outdoor seating as well to enjoy great Asheville weather. Best pizza in Asheville by far.

A real long time ago I was having a fit with acne. I was a lovelorn teenager, infatuated with pretty girls in a dizzy game where pimples can really become cumbersome. It seemed like nothing was working and, after I grew a pimple large enough for its own zip code, I finally found a genius doctor who quickly became my lifelong hero when he came up with a marvelous idea.
At the time there was a new "super drug" that was languishing through years of "clinical trials" in the United States and nobody could get any, despite the fact the revolutionary medicine was already available in Germany. My hero called up a close friend who was a German doctor and – presto! – the first 250 pills came flying across the ocean.
I had to promise that I would not sue anybody if I grew an extra set of ears, developed female breasts, or my eyes turned yellow, but, honestly, I would have dyed my hair green to get the American-made medicine. After I took a course of what was then identified by only a strange laboratory number, my pimples and my acne were gone forever. I had Clark Gable looks and never looked back. That's a true story (except the Gable part.)
Other fellow Americans had to wait for many months. I don't believe that's right. Since this occurred in my formative years, I have cursed the federal Food and Drug Administration for much of my adult life because the "clinical trials" process we use is horribly dysfunctional and in critical need of an overhaul.
To illustrate my point, allow me to introduce a beautiful Texas lawyer, Andrea Sloan. Yes, she is quite pretty but "beautiful" because her career has been as the executive director of a Texas advocacy project that provides free legal services to low-income victims of domestic or sexual abuse.
Andrea is a victim herself, not just of stage 3c ovarian cancer but a horribly-tangled FDA system. Her doctors have exhausted every known method to save her life. Six years of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy haven't worked. She's still very much a patient at the world-famous M.D. Anderson Medical Center and her oncologist believes an experimental drug called "BMN 673" might well save Andrea's life.
M.D. Anderson has a good supply of BMN 673 on hand but with millions of dollars at stake, the manufacturer, BioMarin in California, has said no. "It would be unethical and reckless to provide end-stage refractory ovarian cancer patients outside clinical trial with BMN 673 at this early stage of development," said spokesperson Debra Charlesworth.
"If we did," Charlesworth explained to CNN, "we would be exposing the experimental drug to a large group without adequate testing. There have been previous circumstances where early access to large groups has resulted in adverse consequences that were worse than the course of the disease."
I am certain no scientist can hardly wait for somebody to try to explain to me what "adverse consequences" could possibly be worse than what Andrea Sloan is facing without BMN 673. Andrea is pleading for the drug – let the petals of the flower fall where they may – and probably understands the risks as much as anyone involved. She knows what will happen if she fails to get BMN 673 better than anyone else, too.
Here is what she wrote in a statement to the drug company: "I recognize the importance of weighing the risk and the myriad of considerations they face as a company. However, this is a risk worth taking. I will thank them. My family will thank them. An amazing army of loyal supporters, to whom I owe a debt of gratitude, will thank them. In America we do not leave our wounded warriors on the battleground. BioMarin, please be the Calvary that saves me."
Her M.D. Anderson doctors believe Andrea is a great candidate. Further, the FDA itself has just announced Ms. Sloan qualifies for a "compassionate care" waiver in the rules but the manufacturer, BioMarin, still says no. The word is BioMarin stands to make about $500 million on the drug and, even though they say they plan to give away 10 percent of the medicine to charity, they refuse to face the ethical dilemma.
As of Sunday afternoon Andrea had almost 170,000 supporters on her Change.org webpage and politician Newt Gingrich, co-host of CNN's "Crossfire" program, is irate at "a corporation protecting its wallet at the expense on Andrea's possibly dying. If you want to know why big companies often get bad names, it's explaining that clerical support to fill out FDA paperwork is too difficult when you can save a life."
Dr. Charles Levenback, Andrea's doctor, is disappointed at BioMarin's stance but, as a man who sees the fight against cancer every day, he told CNN reporters, "My own belief is that the drug companies, the manufacturers, the insurance companies, the providers like my hospital M.D. Anderson, the individual medical professionals, the investigators, the patients -- everybody wants the same things. Safe, effect, novel therapies for as many people as it's appropriate for. Even BioMarin, I believe. I don't think this is like 'Let the masses eat cake.' I think they're on the same mission. But the whole system is giving this dysfunctional result."
On Andrea Sloan's Facebook page there is a picture that tells of "Three Simple Rules." The text reads, "If you don't go after what you want in life, you will never have it. If you don't ask, the answer will always be No. If you don't step forward, you'll always be in the same place."
Those three rules got rid of my pimples but all we can do is pray for Andrea Sloan. She needs it right now.

Watch over cuff
For fall you can work this trend of putting your watch over the cuff. It was pioneered by none other than Gianni Agnelli.
This act of doing something "difficult" without effort, called Sprezzatura. He said he did this to see the time faster. But it could have also been that he was allergic to the metal…who knows.
This is also a hard trend to replicate. Like are you honestly that desperate to look at the time? Don't you have your iphone with you? If you are a fashion blogger, it's a given that you won't be as busy as Agnelli, who built a global Fiat Empire. I mean like I get that you may be busy hassling someone for a selfie….

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Shadows of former champs curl on
Nova Scotia's Jones & Co. still 'enjoying the ride'
KINGSTON -- It's like watching a grand old thoroughbred take to the racetrack one too many times.
The fire is still there -- that never leaves, you can see it in their eyes. And there are still glimpses of what horse-racing people refer to as 'back-class' -- those fleeting little moments that reveal this was once a champion who competed at the very highest levels.
But then the gate opens and the real world intrudes and the hard truth is revealed -- that the legs are no longer as fast, even if the heart is still just as big.
What happens next, of course, is hard to watch. But we're watching this week anyway -- on televisions across the nation -- as Nova Scotia legend Colleen Jones and the rest of what was once the greatest team in all of women's curling stumbles its way around the track here at the Canadian women's curling championship.
With another loss here on Monday -- an 11-4 shellacking by Manitoba's Jennifer Jones -- Nova Scotia is now better than one-third through this race and has still yet to win in four attempts. Even worse is that they've been getting throttled, doubled up on the scoreboard by a combined score of 36-18 and giving up an average of nine points per game.
It is a sad spectacle from a team that includes all four members -- Jones, Kim Kelly, Mary-Anne Arsenault and Nancy Delahunt -- of the remarkable juggernaut that won five Canadian women's curling championships in six years from 1999-2004.
Making their first return to this event together since 2006, they will tell you the scores of their games have been misleading, they've been closer than the final numbers would suggest. They'll point out they had a gruelling early schedule that included games against two of the pre-event favourites -- Canada and Manitoba. They'll tell you they still hope to be playing when the playoffs begin on Saturday.
Maybe they really believe all that, too. But if they do, the only ones this grand old Nova Scotia team are still kidding is themselves.
The reality is this team is very old to be curling at an elite level -- Arseneault, Kelly and Jones have an average age of 49; and they're playing out of position -- Jones, a lifelong skip, is throwing second stones and sweeping while Arsenault, a longtime second and formerly one of the game's premier sweepers, is throwing skip rocks and not sweeping at all. Delahunt, the longtime lead, is now the alternate, making way for a raw rookie in Jennifer Baxter,
Put it all together and the only surprise here this week, really, is not that they're losing, but rather why they're doing this at all.
The explanation from Jones is after a lifetime of collecting Canadian championships -- she has a record six of them -- she's collecting something different these days after a health scare last year -- she had a meningitis infection -- gave her a new perspective on things.
"I don't think in life you have to measure success in wins and losses. I think life is measured in experiences," says Jones, 53, "and this experience is priceless in so many ways. You can't have had the health bump that I had and think that you'd never be back at something like this and then be mad that you're here and you're not winning...
"There are thousands of other curlers who'd love to be out here doing what we're doing. (You) just keep plugging along at every step and try to savour it. There's lots of life lessons you can learn on a curling rink."
Alas, those lessons aren't always readily apparent. Take Monday's loss to Manitoba, for instance, in which a tight 4-4 game turned into a debacle for Nova Scotia when Arsenault flashed on her final stone of the seventh end and gave Manitoba an open draw for a back-breaking four-ender.
"I was ready to crawl into a hole," Arsenault reflected afterward, "but there were no holes to be found, so I had to stay out there."
It all begged the obvious question here Monday: If you'd known it was going to be like this, would you have still chosen to run this race again?
"The results aren't fun," said Arsenault, "but we're enjoying the ride."

Guest stars announced for second series of This Is Jinsy
Sky Atlantic has today announced a raft of well known guest stars for the second series of its surreal cult sitcom This Is Jinsy.
The brainchild of Guernsey-born duo Chris Bran and Justin Chubb, This Is Jinsy is a comedy series focusing on the eccentric residents of the fictional island Jinsy, particularly its government, run by Arbiter Maven (Chubb) and Operative Sporall (Bran).
The show started life as a pilot on BBC Three, but Sky took the show to series in September 2011, gaining a British Comedy Award nomination in the process.
To launch the series last year, Sky hired a number of stars to make cameo appearances in the show. These included David Tennant, Catherine Tate, Simon Callow, Peter Serafinowicz, Brian Murphy, Nigel Planer and KT Tunstall. They are now repeating this strategy for the second series.
Sky says: "The second series will head back to the island to find Maven and Sporall with a host of new characters, some returning favourites and plenty of songs in the finest Jinsy tradition."
The first episode will see a guest spot from Stephen Fry as Dr. Bevelspepp. Bevelspepp is a tweedy professor with a floppy quiff, who uses his encyclopaedic knowledge of Jinsy to help save the island from an invasion of rampaging hair.
Also making their debut in the first episode will be Greg Davies as Jennitta Bishard, a 'delightfully sinister figure' who delivers punishments to residents across the island from the safety of her TV studio. This character will appear in multiple episodes, and is similar to the character Harry Hill played in Series 1.
The following actors will also make guest appearances across the 8-part series:
Katy Brand will be guest starring as Madame Astralina, a flamboyant psychic who obtains her readings from a pen of rats.
Ben Miller will play the Chief Accountant of Jinsy, as well as the role of his daughter Berpetta, a drunk, hefty, buck-toothed accountant.
Dame Eileen Atkins will guest as Miss Penny, a school-mistress with a massive dome of pinned hair who teaches Extreme Etiquette for Girls.
Sir Derek Jacobi is starring as Robunce Barnatty, the eldest resident of Jinsy island, at 98 cycles old.
Stephen Mangan plays Mr Lovely, the owner of Mr Lovely's Lovely Jumper Shop with a penchant for all-in-one knitted bodysuits.
Phil Davis will star as ex-Arbiter Roley Jenkins who lives in a large Manor House with his wife Joan.
Olivia Colman will play Joan, Roley Jenkins' wife. Both she and her husband are very elderly with very questionable hygiene.
Rob Brydon will play Jinsy singing sensation, Rex Camalbeeter, who likes dressing up as a female badger and singing about it.
Greg Davies will play Jennitta Bishard, a delightfully sinister figure who delivers punishments to residents across the island from the safety of her TV studio.
Plus KT Tunstall will pop up again, this time as Meb Twaheely, the singer of Jinsy's third most famous folk band, Twaheely Transfix.
It has also been confirmed today that Matt Lipsey (Psychoville) will return as the show's director, with series regulars Alice Lowe, Janine Duvitski and Geoff McGivern signed up to return as Soosan Noop, Mrs Goadion and Trince.
This Is Jinsy forms part of Sky's significant investment in British TV comedy. The network has announced that, by 2014, it expects to be investing £600m a year in original British programming. It is a strategy that has already resulted in the broadcaster becoming a key player in British comedy production. At this year's British Comedy Awards, the results of which will be announced next Wednesday, Sky shows make up three of the four nominations in the Best New Comedy Programme category.
The second series of This Is Jinsy is expected to be shown on Sky Atlantic at the start of 2014.
Below is the trailer that was used to promote the first series of This Is Jinsy:
And below is a clip showing singer KT Tunstall in the show, almost unrecognisable as Briiian Raggatan. Sky Atlantic has confirmed that KT Tunstall will also appear in the new series. This time she will play Meb Twaheely, the singer of Jinsy's third most famous folk band, Twaheely Transfix, who are best known for their ode to the gloved hand, entitled Mittens.

When a new pickup truck debuted, did you ever wonder how its competitors would suddenly gain a few hundred pounds of towing capacity with seemingly no changes from the previous model year?
In what may be a sign of shifting attitudes, GM is taking a bottom-line approach, only this time it's not based on how many cars are moved, but to whom and how.

Case Keenum was the nation's best player statistically in 2008, but few in the Houston area seemed to care.
According to Keenum, Houston's junior quarterback, there was little change as he walked around campus. People weren't stopping him outside class to snap photos or ask for autographs, and not many children with No. 7 jerseys approached him.

Roswell Park trial seeks to fight, prevent cancer

(Page 2 of 3)
About 18-20 individuals with various kinds of cancer will be recruited to participate in the first phase of the trial. The vaccine is expected to show promise in patients with bladder, brain, breast, esophageal, gastrointestinal, hepatocellular, kidney, lung, melanoma, ovarian, prostate, sarcoma and uterine tumors.
Last year, the FDA approved the first therapeutic cancer vaccine, Provenge, for men with advanced prostate cancer. RPCI's Center for Immunotherapy is awaiting FDA approval to launch additional cancer vaccine trials, including a vaccine for malignant glioma (a type of brain tumor) and another vaccine for patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer.
Dr. Donald Trump, CEO, says Odunsi's vaccine could also be developed as a preventive strategy — though that's still a long way off.
"Proof of principal has been established in human beings and the trial by Dr. Odunsi and his colleagues will be several steps forward in advancing both the treatment of established disease in high-risk patients and conceivably in the future, a preventive strategy," he says.
The other unique aspect of the trials is the system on which the vaccine will be developed: Roswell Park is the first facility in the world to use this new process in a custom-designed barrier isolator unit for vaccine cell production. The vaccine will be tailor-made for each patient on the unit, an Xvivo System processing chamber, designed with guidance from the FDA as a certified "good manufacturing process" or GMP facility.
Yeong "Christopher" Choi, director of Roswell's Therapeutic Cell Production Facility, says the unit can be maintained at specified temperatures and humidity levels in an atmosphere akin to the body's physiological condition, which is believed to be better for the cells. The isolator unit also helps meet demand from other research facilities, such as the University at Buffalo and Buffalo General Hospital.

Google Rolls Out Chrome Browser Improvements, Chrome and Google Drive for iOS, Chromebooks Go On Sale
Google rolled out a series of improvements to some of its core web products today at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
On Day Two of the Google I/O conference in San Francisco, Google announced improvements to its Chrome browser, improvements to Google Docs, and Chrome and Google Drive for iPhone and iPad, among other things.
Unlike yesterday's announcements, the new features and services rolled out today (other than the Drive and Chrome apps announcements), seemed aimed at the developer crowd.
Here are the major pieces, by product, so far:
- Developers will now be able to easily build voice recognition into their Chrome apps. That will allow users to give commands to their apps without typing.
- Chrome for the iPhone and the iPad will become available later today.
- The new Chromebooks are three times faster than the original chromebooks. Chromebooks will soon go on sale in Best Buys and other retail outlets across the U.S. Google also says its working with a series of computer makers to release more Chromebooks by the Christmas season.
- In Google Drive, you can save word documents (spreadsheets and presentations later) for offline editing. You can add people to collaborate with you from within the app; real time collaboration works across all devices so you can see your document updating in real time on whatever tablet or phone you may be using. Apps in the Chrome app store can use Drive to do things like send faxes and receive other files into Drive.
- Google says that its cloud infrastructure is so powerful and scalable that developers can run their apps entirely in the cloud to as many users as they want "for a reasonable price." This was demonstrated by running an online gamed called Bulletstorm using Gaikai. The game ran very smoothly in the demo, and looked a lot like a game running on a gaming console.
Fun facts:
- Google says more than 310 million people worldwide now use the Chrome browser.
- Google says that more than 10 million people began using Google Drive "in just over 10 weeks" after its release.

Chefdruck Recipe: Tarte Aux Pommes
|Share on Facebook
|Share on Twitter
Prep Time: 60 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
First, make the dough. Combine the flour, salt and baking powder in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse 2 or 3 times quickly to mix.
Cut the butter into 1 tbsp pieces and add to food processor. Pulse over and over again very quickly until the mixture looks like coarse cornmeal. You should not be able to see any more large pieces of butter.
Scatter 1 tablespoon of tap water on the butter and flour mixture and pulse 5 to 6 times. The dough should begin to hold together. If the mixture still appears dry and crumbly, add more water, 1 teaspoon at a time.
Remove the dough from the food processor. In your hands, roll it into a uniform ball. Place it on a piece of plastic wrap. Press it down into a 6-inch disk and cover with another piece of plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the dough until firm, or until you are ready to use it, about an hour, to help the crust come together.
Remove the crust from the fridge and give it 10 minutes to come to room temperature.
During that time, preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease your pie mold.
Roll out the pie crust to fit the pie mold. Lay it carefully into the greased pan so the crust reaches the top. Fix any holes and place in the oven for 15 minutes, until the crust is baked and just beginning to darken.
Peel and slice the apples as thinly as you can. Or if you're very brave, use a mandoline to get them wafer thin. Place them in a lemon ice bath (made with the juice of the 1/2 lemon listed above) until you are ready to put them on the pie so they don't lose their color.
Once the pie is lightly browned, remove from the oven and lay the apple slices on top, overlapping slightly. Feel free to lay them out in a pretty circular pattern or in a wild and crazy mess, whatever your preference is for the final look of the pie.
Heat the apple jelly in a small saucepan with 1/4 cups of water to make a glaze.
Once the pie is completely covered with apples, brush the top generously with the apple jelly glaze.
Cook for 20 minutes in the oven and then dot the top of the pie with a few chunks of butter. Cook for another 10 minutes.
Serve either warm or cold. Enjoy!

DA Candidates on Weed: Talking Points Over Data Points
Photo by United States Fish and Wildlife Service, Wikimedia Commons
Though marijuana possession remains a jailable crime in Harris County, the law of the land is shifting toward leniency for offenders. Both contenders in the November race for Harris County District Attorney have presented alternatives to convicting those caught with pot.
DA incumbent Devon Anderson and challenger Kim Ogg agree that the old ways need to change, but they clash on how much. The confusion likely stems from the fact neither candidate has the numbers to back her plan. One lacks a cost-savings analysis, and the other has provided practically useless estimates.More »

Too Much Twitter Can Be Bad For Your Marriage, Sex Life, Says Research [STUDY]
Heavy Twitter use can have a negative impact on both your marriage and sex life, says a new study.
The survey, which has been documented in the Cyberpsychology, Behavior, and Social Networking journal by the University Of Missouri, asked 581 active Twitter users to report how often they used the platform and if any conflicts arose with current or former partners as a result of this usage.
The study found that the more a respondent was active on Twitter, the more likely they were to have experienced a Twitter-related issue with their partner.
Similar results were discovered in a Facebook study undertaken by the University Of Missouri last year.
"Based on the findings from both studies, Twitter and Facebook use can have damaging effects on romantic relationships," said University of Missouri doctoral researcher Russell Clayton. "That is, when (social networking) use becomes problematic in one's romantic relationship, risk of negative relationship outcomes may follow."
"Since much of the social networking research is in its infancy, we do not know if other media, such as Instagram will also impact relationships in a negative way," said Brenda Wiederhold, the journal's editor-in-chief.
