Eco friendly wedding bunting
If you're planning to decorate your green wedding with bunting, take a look at this great idea!
According to TRAID, the fashion recycling charity, over 1 million tons of fabric is thrown into dustbins every year in the UK. That equates to 900,000 million items of clothing - and the figures are growing. So Sue at Derry's Den has made it her mission to use up as much UK discarded textiles as she can and you can help her do it by buying her eco bunting.
Sue says "I'd noticed that most party bunting is made from new materials including plastics and the thought of adding more synthetics to the environment just doesn't appeal, so I thought it would be great to use up unwanted textiles. I've been lucky enough to have travelled all over the world in the past and many communities that I've visited reuse textiles out of necessity. In contrast, through lives of comparative luxury, Westerners have created a problem with waste. I've always been into upcycling items rather than throwing them into the rubbish bin, chopping up old clothing to create some other useful item is in my genes. I vividly remember grandmother doing it."
Environmentally friendly bunting can be used for all sorts of occasions, not just weddings. Birthdays, anniversary, leaving parties, or Christmas, as well as street parties, corporate events, or just for brightening up your garden in the summer. Decorate a child's bedroom....have their name on bunting in their favourite colour. Sue makes her eco friendly bunting out of waste textiles, recycled cards or paper, and even waste plastic bags. The bunting is packaged in recycled waste plastic bags from the card industry. All the bunting is made in Oxfordshire and she has made bunting for Greenpeace to decorate their flagship the Rainbow Warrior and it's also been used by Greenpeace, Oxfam and Wateraid at Glastonbury Festival.
All the bunting is made to order so you can choose what colours you want to fit in with your wedding theme.

Swedish summer wedding
We're so excited to welcome Johan Karlberg & Carey Mann who are getting married in Sweden this summer. Carey is going to keep us up to date with all their wedding plans as the months fly by towards their wedding "ute på landet" (out in the country) in July.
Wedding date: 10th July, 2010
Wedding venue and location: We are getting married at my Fiance's parents' summer home in Kisa, Sweden. We are also having a reception party in London the week after our main wedding which is taking place in an ecology centre in Bow, London.
How many guests are coming to your wedding and where from? We have 70 guests coming to our Swedish wedding. Half of the guests are Swedish and traveling from different parts of Sweden. The rest of the guests are traveling from London, Belgium, France and one guest from Africa (we are paying to carbon offset all the flights).
Do you have a budget and do you think you'll be able to stick to it? We didn't really have a budget but the costs so far are about £7,000 for the Swedish wedding and another £3,000 for the London reception.

The Fine Art of Being a Relationship Status Vulture
Scott went from being "in a relationship" to "single."
Within seconds, the vultures descended upon the rotting corpse of Scott's relationship ...
Carra: So sorry to hear that. What happened?
Jill: I always thought I was your always and forever girlfriend.
Andrea: I'm so sorry. Call me.
And so on.
When you're interested in a guy, of course you check his page regularly. And when you see that he's suddenly single, you get excited.
But how long should you wait to begin the flirting after his Facebook relationship status has changed? I asked my Facebook posse' and got pretty much the same response from everyone: "Immediately, if not sooner." "Depends on how fast you can move." "Less than 30 seconds."
Social networking expert Cara Jedell, host of the popular Internet show "Funny in Bed" says you can flirt as usual, but that super-obviously swooping in is tacky. "Post some hot pics of yourself, and wait for him to come to you," she says. "Same rules apply whether you are looking for love online or not. Let him be the cyber man."
So what do you think? Have you ever taken advantage of a guy's recent "loss" to make your move?
CJ Arabia writes the "How to Get Laid ... Off" column and is a frequent Lemondrop blogger.

If anything, wait a day or two and reach out to them outside of Facebook to offer a comforting message/secretly dig for details. Going through Facebook is epitome of TACKY.

I have seen the swoops and the swoopers make me sick. "Icky-sick."
Never are they anything but slimy guys/girls, that are always hunting the hunted.
They are the ones that one's parents might have suggested and you've felt that "Icky-sick," feeling. Begone buzzards!

By Ann
This article is so true, whenever my ex's status on myspace would change, suddenly every girl that was so "happy for us" and thought "you two are so cute together!" would begin to really change up the conversation in that "i'm so sorry you and your girlfriend broke up but you can come screw me now, if you want" tone. home wreckers, if i didnt know better, are always stupid enough to show their true colors when this myspace status change happens. don't they know that every guys ex girlfriend watches their facebook/myspace like a hawk for any sort of sign of him moving on/any sign of people moving in on him? goodness. girls must really be stupid if they think a guys ex girlfriend isn't totally watching. this article describes my biggest pet peeve, it doesnt matter how over you are over your ex...it's STILL not cool for girls to move in on him that you once thought were harmless friends of his, or even yours. sorry ladies, but we will always be watching to see if you add out ex boyfriends to your social networking profile, and we will be watching when your dumb ass decides to flirt with him via comments for the whole world to see.

I've been looking for a new signature scent for months, and finally I have found it. Very unique and earthy, yet still sweet and fruity. My boyfriend calls is a flirty fragrance. So glad it's natural rather than chemical based.

Look above. Now look back. You might have just seen the world's first quad-core phone. The HTC Edge is rumored to pack a mighty punch with NVIDIA's Tegra 3 processor. Screen size on the Edge is 4.7″ and the device will reach just a bit over 10mm thick, probably due to the fact that the Edge's battery will need to also hold a good charge to last more than a couple of hours on a quad-core chip. More specs include 1GB of RAM, a 8MP camera capable of video capture in HD, and internal storage that could reach 32GB.
The HTC Edge is said to be the first leap into HTC's newest market, mobile media. The Edge will reportedly launch with the HTC Listen music store, HTC Read bookstore, HTC Play gaming station, and HTC Watch which is a movie watching portal for media fanatics. To top it off the Edge might be the first device by HTC that will carry Sense 4.0, the yet-to-be unveiled newest rendition of HTC's custom software.
There are no talks of LTE capabilities, but it is still early and we may be looking at a European release followed by one later down the road here in the Americas. The Edge will reportedly launch in Q1-Q2 of 2012 so we are sure to hear a lot more about this device in the coming months. We are willing to bet that we will hear more at 2012 CES, which we will be at of course. Is the world ready for quad-core phones?

Unisys throws weight behind 'mature' Linux
Summary: Unisys says it is targeting open source as a 'key area' for growth as it tries to make Linux more attractive to large companies
Open source is now "a mature technology" and the right, cost-effective option for many companies, according to Peter Blackmore, executive vice-president and president of worldwide sales at Unisys.
Blackmore, who was formerly at HP where he masterminded the Adaptive Enterprise strategy, outlined Unisys' strategy for growth at a meeting in London on Wednesday. He said the enterprise services company is now focused on four core areas: enterprise security, real-time infrastructures, open source and the Microsoft market.
Unisys is now working with some major companies to deliver open source solutions, said Blackmore. "Linux is really in demand now," he said. "We are working with one client [a major European travel business] where we are pitching open source in a large server environment. We can prove the reliability and the maturity and it will save them 30 percent off the bottom line."
Blackmore also revealed that outsourcing is now 50 percent of the company's business, much of it desktop outsourcing. The combination of Windows on the desktop and open source on the server can be the most successful strategy for the company, he told ZDNet UK.
But Blackmore believes that the main problem for Unisys has been to find ways to successfully market itself. One issue is that while the company claims to be very popular with its users it does not have great visibility outside of its core markets.
"Customers say, 'We wish you were better known' and we have to address that," he said.
Blackmore has come full circle in his career after starting with Burroughs Machines which then merged with Sperry-Univac to become Unisys. Blackmore moved on to Compaq and then joined HP in the merger of those two companies before returning to Unisys.
On Wednesday, Unisys also announced that it had plans to develop a new data centre in the UK, located outside London's M25, to provide "state-of-the-art security and technology". The company did not disclose the size of the investment.

Reality Check
Gubernatorial candidate Michael Arth thought he could play politics by his own rules. He's learning it's not so easy.
Published: October 21, 2010
Nearly three months later, after a dozen unanswered e-mails and several calls to the party regarding his candidacy, Arth filed a three-page official grievance titled "The Florida Democratic Party is not being Democratic." Despite being published in full on the Miami Herald's "Naked Politics" blog, it was roundly ignored by party officials.
Then came the Florida Democratic Party conference at the Disney Yacht Club resort last October. "The first night I was there I was doing great," Arth says. "Hundreds of Democrats were coming up to our table and were making donations, and I thought 'Well, this is pretty good.'
"And then Alex Sink spoke outside to everybody, and I stood next to the stage waiting my turn. And that's when Karen Thurman came out – she's the chair of the [Florida] Democratic Party – and she said 'No, no, I'm not going to let you speak. We just want to focus on one candidate.'"
The party had already anointed Sink as its candidate, almost a year before the primary even took place. Arth says Thurman physically blocked him from taking the stage.
The next morning, Arth says, he found he had been reassigned to a table in a nearly empty room far away from the main hall, to where he calls "political Siberia." His campaign materials, he says, had been put into a storage room.
Despite the multiple rejections, Arth held out for eight more months as a Democrat, hoping that the party brass would come around. They never did.
The Orlando Weekly tried to contact Eric Jotkoff to discuss the aforementioned incidents, but multiple calls and messages went unanswered. Requests to speak with Ms. Thurman were redirected to Jotkoff, and the Sink campaign also declined to comment on Arth's criticisms of her platform.
That the state's Democratic leaders don't want to talk about Arth doesn't surprise Al Krulick, Arth's running mate (and contributor to the Orlando Weekly's Arts & Culture section). "They don't want to play with Michael," Krulick says. "Michael's too smart."
Krulick ran for U.S. Congress in 1996 and 1998 on the Democratic ticket against Bill McCollum, and says he was "pulled back" into the political fold by Arth. "Here's a guy who has actually thought things through, and actually has answers, not slogans," he says.
Yet Arth's preference for answers over slogans didn't resonate as well with the media, members of which received press kits with 67 pages of information and a DVD (and later, his book). When Arth went on a campaign tour from Key West to Pensacola in July, making the whole trip by bicycle, he received little coverage outside of his own blog.
To a seasoned observer like Roger Handberg, a political science professor at the University of Central Florida, the media's unwillingness to give Arth attention is nothing personal. "The media historically likes a horse-race, where you've got two horses battling for the win," he says. "It makes life simpler for them, less complicated."

Designing The Well-Tempered Web
As technology evolves, so does the art and craft of Web design. New technology creates new challenges, which require new solutions. Often we're working in uncharted territory, where the solutions demanded really are new. Other times, we're faced with problems of a more universal nature, problems that have a history.

The new owner/co-pilot of the 50-year-old airplane and another pilot, who was typed rated in the airplane, departed on a 1,700 mile ferry flight. After the first 250 mile leg, the airplane was landed at another airport with a right engine problem. The owner replaced the right engine and continued the ferry flight. Twenty minutes into the second flight, the replacement right engine lost power. The owner stated that they applied maximum power to the left engine, were unable to feather the right propeller, and performed a forced landing to a field. However, the airplane collided with trees before reaching the field, then burned after impact. Investigation revealed that during the past 5 years, the airplane had neither flown nor had an annual inspection, except for 3 recent maintenance flights, totaling 1.5 Hours. The right propeller blades had chordwise scratches. The left propeller blades had no chordwise scratches. Examination of the wreckage revealed three propeller strikes in the ground, near the right engine ground scar, and no propeller strikes in the ground, near the left engine ground scar. The right engine mixture was locked in the auto-cruise position, while the left was locked in the emergency position. Airplane charts listed the single-engine rate of climb with a feathered propeller to be 350 feet per minute, and 10 feet per minute with a windmilling propeller.
The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be:

Greenwash Of The Week: Europe's 'Green Week' Sponsored By Coke.
Here we go again. First, they sell bottled tap water in 30% plant-based plastic bottles and call it green. Then, an "eco" site pimps a Coke can missing its paint as "green". Lately, they are a partner and participant in a conference called Sustainable Brands. (No, I'm not joking about that one – but I wish I was) And just last week, Coca-Cola was chosen as a sponsor of 'Green Week', an annual European Union conference debating environmental sciences. Seems strange that a company charged with creating water scarcity and polluted water from its bottling operations in India and who is the winner of the First Corporate Greenwashing Award would be headlining a 'Green Week' event for all of Europe.
But then again, we have learned that appearance is everything and action is nothing. If they can be called sustainable here in the US by a "Sustainable Brands" conference, why not in Europe at a "Green Week" as well? And if they are getting these labels just by paying a few bucks into these organizations, why bother doing anything actually green?

Sounds more like 'Green Weak' to me. If the organizations we entrust to help raise awareness of sustainable issues and practices choose to side with the very perpetrators of these goals, then they don't deserve to be in positions of power. If the organization has few options for sponsors and financial help, then they should at least have a keynote speaker present on the topic of Greenwashing and the true nature of that sponsor. I see no reason why we can't attempt to bleed them dry of their blood money and use it against them.
Which is precisely why it's called Greenwashing. I would love to be in a position to direct an organization who had the opportunity to turn around on the very sponsors it receives, and teach them a lesson on 'strength in numbers' and 'doing the right thing'.

text: On July 19, 1995, approximately 2100 MDT, a Fairchild 24G, N16899, received substantial damage in a loss of directional control following a brake malfunction on landing roll at the pilot's private airstrip 3 miles north of Nyssa, OR. The commercial pilot, a co-owner and the sole occupant of the airplane, was not injured. The 14 CFR 91 flight had originated at Ontario, OR. Visual meterological conditions existed and no flight plan had been filed.The pilot indicated in his accident report that his airstrip is a north-south grass-surface runway 1,850 feet long, 60 feet wide, and 2,190 feet above sea level. Winds at Ontario (5 miles north of the accident site) at the time were reported from 270 degrees magnetic at 11 knots. The pilot described the accident in his report as follows: "Landing to the north. Moments after landing right brake was applied to get direction[al] control. The right brake did not release and aircraft ground-looped, crumpling left landing gear and the left wing." Based on the time filed on the pilot's accident report, the accident occurred approximately 20 minutes before local sunset.The airplane, manufactured in 1937, has tailwheel landing gear and employs a cable-actuated mechanical drum brake system. The owner indicated a mechanical malfunction of the brake on page 4 of his accident report, stating: "The cable thr[ough] the tubing in [the] wheel strut froze up and would not release brake when applied". His report indicated that the airplane's last annual inspection was on May 26, 1995, and that the airplane had operated 7.1 hours since the annual inspection. The total time on the airframe was listed in the report as 2,542.3 hours.The pilot reported that his last Biennial Flight Review (BFR) was on April 18, 1985, over ten years before the accident. This BFR was conducted in a Fairchild 24G.

LEGO Rock Raiders was a 1999 LEGO theme based around mining on an alien planet for Power Crystals, sporting fifteen sets featuring mining vehicles, other craft, minifigure packs, and a large base set. What it is best remembered for, though, is its two very different tie-in games, one for the PC and one for the PlayStation. Accompanying the games and toys were nine mini-comics, several other comic appearances in LEGO-related magazines, and three young reader books.The L.M.S. Explorer, a Cool Starship tasked with observing and exploring uncharted planets, was damaged by an asteroid field and caught by a wormhole on its voyage back to Earth, and was warped into another galaxy and left crippled and low on fuel. The ship's scanners were still operational, and picked up a nearby planet in the solar system, dubbed Planet U, that was rich in Energy Crystals which could be used to restore power to the L.M.S. Explorer and get them back to the Milky Way. However, Planet U proved to be a hostile place with high volcanic activity, frequent cave-ins, little breathable air, and populated with hostile wildlife, including the powerful Rock Monsters, whose diet consists solely of the Energy Crystals that the L.M.S. Explorer so dearly needs.

Where: Nassau Haven, Edgemere, Tullamore, Grove, and Hemlock Parks

Books really are the ultimate multi purpose objects! Not only are they used for obtaining great knowledge on subjects far and wide, but they are also a Fab way to make your home feel cozy and chic. Whether housed in bookcases, stacked on trays, used as end tables or just laid about for your house guests to peruse through, I am LOVING these fresh takes on how to display books!
I hope they have a ladder! Regardless, I love how the books line the walls AND even go above the windows!
A Coffee Table made of Books!? Yes please!!!
Forget the Traditional Bookcase! Bring on the Funky!!
Books in a Glass Case used as a Side Table!? Different and Chic!

What's needed?
Onesies, clothing and sleepers in preemie, newborn or 0-3 month sizes, booties/socks and mittens, baby story books and blankets
Through Nov. 30, persons can donate new or gently used items in baskets that will be located at the following locations throughout the month of November:
Methodist Hospital
Methodist Women's Hospital
Jennie Edmundson Hospital in Council Bluffs
Pediatric office at Methodist Physicians Clinic Regency Court
Pediatric office at Methodist Physicians Clinic Hawthorne Court
Pediatric office at Methodist Physicians Clinic Women's Center
Pediatric office at Methodist Physicians Clinic in Council Bluffs
Two baskets will also be available for public donations at Regency Court
Methodist Health Systems have been collecting baby stuff for parents of preemies for the month of November. When a child is born early -- which happens 1-out-of-every-8 births -- the parents are often unprepared. The virtual baby shower allows donations to go towards those families.
"Happy!" shouts Javier Portillo, who turns two next month. He's healthy and full of energy. Born ten weeks early, Javier spent a lot of time at the Methodist Women's Hospital neo-natal intensive care unit or NICU.
And so did his mother, Angela Portillo: "I actually thought I had three more months to get prepared."
Being the oldest kid in the waiting area, Javier needs to investigate the nearby youngsters.
His first move was a bold one. He grabs the rattle from a one-year old and that's not enough. He takes her twin sisters as well. Even the adults weren't strong enough to intervene.
"You're brave," said one mother. "Taking things from two girls. You better watch out!"
In turns out they didn't mind. The dancing and shaking mesmerized them. They don't know it but all three have plenty in common.
Ella and Lana are also NICU graduates -- born eleven weeks early at just over two pounds.
"It was a lot of touch and go," said the twins' mother Jen Rohrbach. "They'd be coming home and then there would be a complication."
While Ella went home fairly close to Thanksgiving last year, Lana ended up spending nine months in the hospital before finally coming home. "I've waited for this day. Where they could happy and laughing and smiling -- cause she was so sick for so long."
Through the end of the week, Methodist Hospital, Methodist Women's Hospital -- along with several pediatric offices of its clinics will be collecting for the virtual baby shower -- items that can help the parents of preemies.
Methodist is collecting onesies and sleepers and clothes in the preemie, newborn or 0-3 months in size. Booties and mittens along with blankets and story books are requested.

3 hive bodies ????
- Published on August 30, 2011
- Written by Peter Hadeka
Hello, recently I stumbled on to a site, I think Canadian, where the writer indicated that he has used three deep hive bodies, instead of two, on his many hives and because of that has not had any swarming in many years. Unfortunately I cannot find the site again. Does anyone have any opinion on this ???? It makes sense because it would eliminate the possibility of crowding. Also does anyone recognize the web site, if so let me know. Thanks Peter8/31/11 I found the web site with the info on 3 deep hive bodies and additional ventilation. It is beeworks.com. The author has redesigned the hives to a square configuration instead of rectangular and has added special ventilation to the top of the hive. Very interesting reading. If you access the site look at the D E Hive details section. Finally I will be able to sleep tonight. I don't intend to build square boxes but the three hive bodies and additional ventilation might be worth a try next spring. I hope everyone is recovering from the Hurricane, a real mess. Peter
Mite Treatment with MAQS.
- Published on August 19, 2011
- Written by Peter Hadeka
Hello everyone. I discovered, with the help of Steve Parise, that I had some mites in my hives. I ordered some MAQS, Mite Away Quick Strips, and thought I would let you know how things went. I placed the patties in the hives a week ago. I have not disturbed the hives since placing, per the directions.
I did have a small amount of bearding on one of the hives the following day but the bees kept coming and going as usual, this was expected. There are questions as to whether the paper has to be removed after the treatment. It is apparent that the bees take care of this themselves, there are little white specs of paper, and a few bigger pieces on the ground in front of the hives.
Pretty cool. Anyway, as advertised I do not see any apparent harm to the hives and am confident that the formic acid has taken care of the infestation. Due to the possibility of thunder storms today I have not looked in the hives, perhaps tomorrow.
If I do discover a problem I will update, however I do not expect any problems. Perhaps the MAQS will be the answer to the Mite problem.
New Beekeeper Lessons

New Beekeeping Grant Lessons Learned
New beekeepers have lots of lessons to learn and experienced beekeepers have even more lessons to learn: beekeeping is all about learning. In the spring of 2010 through the spring of 2011 the Vermont Beekeepers Association worked with the Vermont Agency of Agriculture Food and Markets to procure funds from the USDA Specialty Crop Development Block Grant to fund new beekeeper's start up costs for 17 Vermonters.
One of the requirements of this grant was for the new beekeepers to share the top five things that they learned. These are compiled below in no particular order. I think you'll agree that these beekeepers have a sense of humor and learned quite a bit in their first year.

People are just itching to get out of town.
Some are finding they can with some last-minute travel plans, and others are getting a taste of summer right here in Virginia.
Many in Charlottesville are thinking, "If the snow doesn't go, then I'm going to go."
"People are really getting a chance to think, 'Hey we're getting tired of this, this is not normal Charlottesville weather, so let's just get out of town and go on a trip,'" travel consultant Stephen McIninch said.
McIninch works for Globe Travel in Charlottesville. He said he's had clients book a cruise last week, and they're leaving next week.
"There's deals that don't normally happen because there's that last-minute availability that is available," he said.
Here are some deals. A four-day trip to a resort in Cancun runs $365. Or, take a Western Caribbean cruise for five nights at $347.
If you don't have the vacation time, Massanutten Indoor Water Park is just over the mountain. It's always 84 degrees in the water park, and it could be just what you need to get away from the cold weather.
You don't have to be a member to use Crow Indoor Pool in Charlottesville.
"Right now, we have a bunch of teenagers in here doing a workout on their own," aquatics manager Bob Manners said. "We have seniors who come in and do workouts on their own."
It's $4 if you live in the city limits and $8 if you don't. Manners said people use it as an alternative to exercising outside.
"It seems like with the economy the way it is, people just love to come swimming," he said. "And it's a cheap way of entertaining themselves."
It's a way to escape the cold weather a little closer than the Caribbean.

This one's a bit of a surprise. Most Disney folks, myself included, upon reading that headline would probably think of the fairly well-known but unbuilt Fantasia Gardens – the boat attraction based on the animated film that was intended to be part of Animal Kingdom's "Beastly Kingdom."
I was shocked to find out that this wasn't the first iteration of this concept. The idea of a Fantasia-based boat ride goes back to the 1960s at Disneyland, and was seriously discussed as a replacement for the Magic Kingdom's defunct Swan Boats attraction in the 1980s. A quick internet search reveals that, not surprisingly, David Koenig had already beat me to this story six years ago, but I have a picture!
First, a bit of history. In the Winter, 1990, issue of WD Eye, Imagineering's John Hench described an attraction that Marc Davis and Claude Coates had developed to replace Disneyland's Fantasyland Motor Boats. The ride, tentatively titled Garden of the Gods, would feature music and scenes from Fantasia as well as character-shaped "water sculptures." According to Hench, the Marc Davis-designed characters would literally be "carved" out of water. This intriguing concept was abandoned because of ambient noise from the adjoining Autopia cars; the noisy motors from guests' cars would drown out the classical music from the Fantasia soundtrack.
According to Koenig, Claude Coates had considered a walk-through version of the Fantasia Gardens concept, but this idea was adapted when Walt Disney World was looking to replace the Swan Boats after their 1983 closure. The Swan Boats had been a stop-gap measure in 1973 to help ameliorate the lack of ride capacity in the then-new Magic Kingdom, but as the park expanded, their popularity allegedly waned. There was little purpose to the fairly short and uneventful attraction, although it often had a long queue due to its ride system; in many ways the situation presaged that of the similarly-fated Discovery River Boats at Animal Kingdom.
Coates conferred with Katy Moss Warner of Walt Disney World's Parks Horticulture group about crafting the attraction's characters from topiary bushes, discovering that it was possible to create flowering topiaries. The ride would consist of several separate scenes based on sequences from the film; you can learn more about the attraction and the reason for its demise in Koenig's article.
The attraction would later be considered for use in Disneyland Paris, and most famously as a key element of the Animal Kingdom's heavily promoted land of mythical creatures. That's four parks, at least, that it's been considered for, so don't count Fantasia Gardens out. It might just pop up again someday.

In a rare corporate mea culpa, McDonald's Corp. has apologized for not being upfront about its use of beef extract in French fries sold in the United States, an ingredient the company describes as "natural flavor" in its nutrition brochures.
The apology comes after American Hindus and vegetarians sued the world's largest restaurant chain earlier this month in Seattle, accusing the company of deliberately misleading its American customers. The plaintiffs said they thought they were eating vegetarian fries because McDonald's has marketed its fries since 1990 as cooked in "100 percent vegetable oil."

Sometimes you just want to enter the U.S. on a whim.
You might want to celebrate the Oakland Raiders finding another new way of slipping into oblivion. You might want to catch a new sci-fi brothel just outside Vegas.
Should you not have your passport with you, you might want to make sure you have a scan of it on your
iPad. For this is what Canadian Martin Reisch says he did when he tried to cross the border from Quebec into foreign territory.
The Associated Press has it that Reisch wanted to deliver some Christmas gifts to his friend's children. How he didn't come prepared with his passport isn't entirely clear. Even for a Canadian to enter this hallowed land there is a documentation requirement.
CC Robert Scoble/Flickr)
The rules state that Canadian visitors need to have an enhanced driver's license–which are special documents that are compliant with the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative. Or they need to be part of something delightfully called the Trusted Traveler Program. Or they need to have, well, a passport.
There doesn't seem to be any mention of scans, photocopies or artist's impressions.
Reisch says that he had scanned his passport just, you know, in case. So he thought he'd try to appeal to the modernity and humanity of the border control officer.
He told the AP: "I thought I'd at least give it a try. He took the iPad into the little border hut. He was in there a good five, six minutes. It seemed like an eternity. When he came back he took a good long pause before wishing me a Merry Christmas."
U.S. Customs and Border Protection hasn't commented on this tale of an apparently indulgent representative of the USA.
Many will believe the very notion of an electronic passport seems to represent an obvious future. If people can fling their iPhones beneath the tired eyes of baristas to pay for a mocha, they can surely fling them in front of the suspicious nose of a border control officer in order to prove who they are.
Naturally, there will be security issues and this particular border control officer was probably full of Christmas spirit.
But who cannot imagine the day when people are waving not their official passports on iPhones or iPads but their Facebook profiles in front of fascinated government employees?
Because everyone on Facebook is real, right?

A clogged fuel injector can cause an electronic fuel injection system to operate inefficiently, consume more fuel and possibly lead to engine failure. Electronic fuel injection systems began replacing carburetor fuel systems in the 1980s and grew in popularity with car manufacturers which lead to the complete implementation of electronic fuel injection systems in all vehicles. There are very few carburetor systems available because electronic fuel injections systems provide better fuel efficiency. Clogged injectors has to be taken care of in the proper way and it is best to have an experts taken care of the problem.
Electronic fuel injection systems
Better fuel efficiency from electronic fuel injection systems provides for better gas mileage on each tank full of fuel. Electronic fuel injection systems are available on both diesel and gasoline engines and come in different types including single point fuel injection, central port fuel injection, multi point fuel injection, continuous fuel injection and direct fuel injection. Over time and use it is possible buildup to occur on the injectors which can result in a clogged fuel injector.
Build-up of residue and dirt on fuel injectors occurs over time as a result of the type and quality of fuel being used, as well as the octane level. The use of cheap fuels for an extended period of time can affect the performance of electronic fuel injectors and even cause clogged fuel injector occurrences faster. Problems with electronic fuel injectors can be noticeable such as a loss of power, increased fuel consumption and lower gas mileage between fill-ups.
Fix a clogged fuel injector
There are different products and services available on the market which might fix a clogged fuel injector. One method is offered by quick oil change places, car dealerships and mechanics which uses a liquid injector cleaner forced through the the fuel rail into the electronic fuel injectors while the engine is running. There are drawbacks to using this type of cleaning method because there is no way to examine the injectors and determine if they are fully unclogged or if there are stuck injectors and how well the injectors are performing.
Another problem with this method to clean a clogged fuel injector has to do with the chemicals used in the cleaner. The chemicals can cause damage to other parts of the electronic fuel injection system such as sensors, catalytic converter, seals and electronic components. Particles and buildup inside the injector can become loose and may be too big to pass out of the system which can result in additional clogs in the fuel injection system. Other problems with the fuel injection system cannot be discovered such as worn O-rings, leaking injectors and stuck injectors.
Clean clogged injectors with ultrasonics
The only guaranteed method that addresses these problems and can clean a clogged injector properly is by removing the fuel injectors from the engine. Once removed, the injectors can be dropped off or mailed to a professional cleaning service, like Injector RX, Injector RX uses a manufacturer approved ultrasonics cleaning process to clean fuel injectors as well as provides fuel injector flow testing services. Advantages of this method allow Injector RX to fully clean each injector, replace worn parts with new ones and test each injector for fuel flow comparison. For information on pricing, where to mail or drop off the injectors or other questions, call 281-738-3635 or visit the website.

Portion for Analysis: Approximately 50 grams +/- 1.5 g.
Kernels and pieces of barley which, after the standardized full pearl, are materially discolored (red, black, or brown) with an area of coverage and intensity equal to or greater than shown when viewed from the top. The surface area does not need to be uniformly discolored. When assessing the "overall" color intensity, disregard those areas of the kernel that have been gouged (i.e. extend beyond "full pearl") during pearling.
Illustration shows from left to right:
Kernel A: Minimum color intensity for Blue Barley.
Kernel B: Minimum color intensity for other than Blue.
