Steaming Hot Planet
Scientists have reported the first conclusive discovery of water vapor in the atmosphere of an exoplanet, or a planet beyond our Solar System.
This artist's impression shows a gas-giant exoplanet transiting across the face of its star. Infrared analysis by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope of this type of system provided the breakthrough.
The planet, HD 189733b, lies 63 light-years away in the constellation Vulpecula. It was discovered in 2005 as it transited its parent star, dimming the star's light by some three percent.

School nominated for Proud Of Barnsley award
Tuesday 3rd June 2014
A WOMBWELL primary school which has helped give a little girl with a rare genetic condition a 'wonderful start' in education has been nominated for a Proud of Barnsley award.
A WOMBWELL primary school which has helped give a little girl with a rare genetic condition a 'wonderful start' in education has been nominated for a Proud of Barnsley award.
High View Primary, on Newsome Avenue, has been nominated for school of the year by Rachel Mansell, whose daughter Annie is a pupil there.
Annie, five, of Neville Close Wombwell, suffers from Tetrasomy X, a chromosome disorder which is caused by having four copies of the X chromosome instead of two.
It means she suffers from hypermobile joints and muscle weakness and is often very tired.
She was also born with a cleft soft palate, meaning development of her communication skills have been delayed.
In her nomination, Rachel, 39, said the school had brilliant at helping Annie remain in mainstream education.
"High View has been excellent at working at Annie's pace so she was happy with school and able to cope with the long tiring days.
"Something that is really touching is the way they always make sure that Annie is not left out when there are treats or food-related activities, which isn't always easy given her allergy to milk proteins.
"Annie has a complex needs but High View really has made mainstream school work for her."

I love crispy skins, but my hubby does not so I always take his. :)) Here are some tools you'll need if you want to achieve that yummy crispy skin: foil, a baking sheet, and a non-coated cooling rack or a toaster oven rack that will elevate the fish from bottom of the cookie sheet...yes you could use a broiling pan, but those things are a pain to clean and you wouldn't get such yummy extra crispy skins :) I choose to broil mine but this will work well on the grill too. Just be sure to brush the hot grill rack with olive oil so the skin does not stick.

It's OK to love yourself
I love myself, who do you love?
An audience member on the ABC's Q&A program this week asked an interesting question, albeit a widely derided one. It was about narcissism. In particular, she wanted to know whether the rising rate of narcissism in the population could be attributed to distant parents who spend more time at work than with their kids.
"We are allowing narcissists to rule our world," she said, making the assumption that narcissism is a negative trait.
But there's evidence to suggest narcissism isn't all that bad. In an experiment run three years ago by psychologists at Stanford and Cornell universities, students were asked to pitch an idea for a movie. Those who were narcissistic (based on an assessment conducted beforehand) were 50 per cent more successful in convincing the judges of their idea's merit.
That's because narcissism develops in people a level of enthusiasm, charm and creativity that isn't as high in everyone else. Sure, narcissists might lack substance, but they are nonetheless more convincing and charismatic than other people. This explains, perhaps, why so many are able to reach the upper echelons of the business world while others, despite being more competent, lag behind.
An earlier study, this one from the University of Surrey, found narcissism was particularly prominent among executives. One major reason is that narcissists are more ambitious and have greater confidence, the combination of which empowers them to take advantage of opportunities that others shun.
The most commonly used test for narcissism is the Narcissistic Personality Inventory. It's seen as the benchmark that determines whether or not an individual is a narcissist. It comprises seven core characteristics: authority, self-sufficiency, superiority, exhibitionism, vanity, exploitativeness, and entitlement.
With the exception of exploitativeness, which is probably what differentiates narcissism from self-esteem, many of us (maybe even most of us?) would possess one or more of those characteristics to some extent.
Sometimes they dominate an entire demographic. Authority is present in many leaders; self-sufficiency in entrepreneurs; superiority in the wealthy; exhibitionism in pretty much everyone on Facebook; vanity in the attractive; and entitlement in Gen Y.
You can often see all seven factors in politicians – usually with great success. Earlier this year, researchers at Emory University analysed the performance of 42 American presidents. They discovered those who were narcissistic were coincidentally more persuasive, better at leading the nation through a crisis, and more effective from a legislative perspective.
It's true, too, and somewhat unsurprising, that they were also more inclined to be unlawful. But it could be that the narcissism that propels their performance also influences the public to be more forgiving. Either way, they win.
It's not just politicians. Psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud famously posited that narcissism is a natural human trait residing in everyone to a certain degree. He even deemed it an essential form of self-love. Before we can love others, we must first love ourselves, that kind of thing.
A glance at most people's online profiles (especially Instagram, arguably the most narcissistic social media platform of them all) emphasises this point 100 years after Freud made it.
These days, an experience has not been experienced unless it's posted somewhere ostentatiously for all to see. It's gaudy self-love, a desperate cry for attention among fake friends. Anyone, really, who rails against narcissists should examine themselves online. They'll notice they have much in common with those they deride, particularly the element of exhibitionism.
So, I don't know. Maybe it's not so bad that a guy at my gym spends more time checking himself out in the mirror than actually working out. And maybe it's legitimate for Ja'mie King to claim she's "totes quiche". And perhaps it's begrudgingly acceptable for someone to climb the corporate ladder for reasons unrelated to technical ability.
Quite possibly, they have a thing or two to teach the rest of us.
What do you think? Can narcissism be a positive?

Narcissism is one of many traits often found in senior managers and executives that work ... along with psychopathy, bullying, and many others.
Sadly, and despite all the wonderful statements and policies suggesting otherwise, companies are often prepared to overlook these traits if the executive is getting results.
But at what cost?

Damn right Len. James, I would suggest that you go away and do some proper reading about narcissism. It is incredibly destructive in personal relationships and in work places. Being a bit vain and overly confident is not narcissism. Being deluded, in the clinical sense of the word, only ever being able to see other people in terms of what they can do for you, having no sense of morality, these are the traits of narcissism and they cost employers millions of dollars.
James, if you purport to be "one of Australia's best-known people-management thinkers" you should have some basic understanding of personality disorders. Unless of course you are a narcissist yourself......

Len is right. One of the traits of narcissism is prioritising yourself above all others. A generation of narcissists means a generation of selfish, uncaring, distant yet 'charismatic' people. While it may create a few great leaders, its a detriment to society as a whole.
In addition, young narcissists have been told they're 'special' their whole lives, which leads to a feeling of entitlement, and therefore a reluctance to work hard for results. A successful leader is willing to put in the long work hours to succeed. This couldn't possibly be tested in the 'film pitch' experiment.
Charisma only takes you so far if you give up after your first failure or missed target. Narcissists are even more likely to give up early and be shattered in defeat.. 'how could I possibly have failed? ME? I'm so great and my hair is so voluminous....'

Gee, this article is really helpful, giving narcissists more fuel to rationalise their appalling behaviour. Furthermore, I don't think your logic makes sense. Narcissists may have a greater chance of getting what they want but they are not necessarily going to make the world a better place. In fact I would argue on balance they make the world worse off. We all need a reasonable level of self respect however narcissism by definition includes selfishness and the wants of a narcissist are unlikely to be beneficial to the broader community and the planet.

@All of you
I'm a narcissist and I get along well with everyone. My senses about the world and my colleagues are in tune.
The three of you have a conventional views towards narcissism. Time to evolve your views ladies, or everyone who have yet come across it.
Narcissism has always been associated with selfishness and arrogance but I'm a case that I'm not and I'm not saying that I'm the only one. I compliment and admire myself highly. I compliment people and friends who achieve goals and their dreams highly but unfortunately they go out of this world. They happen to enjoy their success at the expense of people yes and THAT is because their narcissism is not checked.
It is good to love yourself and you'll love people in turn. I am saying that there is a variant of narcism.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data.

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality.

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Amos begins with a humble description of himself - "one of the sheep farmers" (Amos 1:1). Being a prophet of God has nothing to do with what we are in ourselves. It's all about God. It's all about His grace and His call. Looking after sheep - This is such an apt description of the ministry of a pastor. "The Lord roars from Zion" (Amos 1:2). These words make us think of a lion. This could be terrifying for sheep. Think of the lion - Aslan - from "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" (C S Lewis). It's a picture of Christ. His voice is more than a roar. It's the voice of love. The "roar" speaks of authority. The greatest authority is the authority of love. How does the Lord command our respect? He loves us. As we learn to appreciate His love, we learn to love Him. Our love for Him is inspired by His love for us. As we learn to love Him, our obedience to Him increases in strength. "The Lord has said this" (Amos 1:15). The prophet's voice is to be an echo of the Lord's voice. We speak because God has spoken.
"I brought you out of Egypt..." (Amos 2:10-11). God had done great things for His people. Sadly, this is followed by "You made the Nazirites drink wine. You commanded the prophets to stop prophesying." God has been good to us. How are we reacting to His love? Are we being changed by His love? His love is not only a gift to be received. It's a power to make us more like Him.
Privilege and responsibility (Amos 3:2). "The Almighty Lord has spoken. Who can keep from prophesying?" (Amos 3:8). God's Word is not to go in one ear and out the other ear. It's to change us. It's to equip us for living as His people and being His witnesses.
"And still you didn't return to Me, declares the Lord" (Amos 4:8-11). What does God say to people who keep on refusing to return to Him? This is what He says: "Prepare to meet your God" (Amos 4:12).
"Search for Me and live! ... Search for Me and live!" (Amos 5:4,6). Life can be tuned around. This isn't something that we can do for ourselves. It must done for us by the Lord. "Search for good instead of evil so that you may live" (Amos 5:14). The Lord gives us a new direction in life. When we read of the call to conversion, we must remember that we cannot answer this call in our own strength. The strength that we need must be given to us by the Lord.
"How horrible it will be ... " (Amos 6:1,3-6,13) - This is a prophecy concerning God's judgment. Such words need to be heard, if people are to be turned back into walking in the ways of the Lord. If we don't hear of God's judgment, we are likely to keep on walking in our own ways. There needs to be "an alarm to the unconverted" (Joseph Alleine). There needs to be an alarm to the converted. The danger of remaining apathetic and unconverted is not the only danger. There is also the danger that, after being converted, we become apathetic and backslidden. God is calling us to turn to Him. He's calling us to keep on being turned towards Him.
"Almighty Lord, please forgive us!" (Amos 7:2) - This is the prayer that the Lord is waiting to hear and answer. "Almighty Lord, please stop!" (Amos 7:5) - This is a prayer for God's mercy. We come to Him, deeply aware of our sin and His judgment. We cry to Him for mercy. Why should He have mercy on us? From our point of view, there is no answer to this question. From His point of view, there is an answer - the Cross. Upon Christ, there is our sin and God's judgment. To us, there is mercy and grace. There are people who do not want to hear the Word of the Lord. They say, "Don't ever prophesy again in Bethel" (Amos 7:13). Why did they tell the prophet to "run away to Judah! ... and prophesy there" (Amos 7:12). The reason is this - "This is the king's holy place and the king's palace" (Amos 7:12). Holy? - What is holy about a place when its people send away the prophet of God, and tell him to preach the Word of God somewhere else? If a place is really holy and the people are really holy, there would be a real desire to hear what the Lord has to say to us. What did Amos say about this? This is what he said - It was the Lord who said to me, "Prophesy to My people, Israel" (Amos 7:15). The Lord says, "Speak." The world says, for the Word of the Lord "Stop speaking to us." A true prophet will speak the Word of the Lord.
"The days are going to come, declares the Almighty Lord, when I will send a famine throughout the land. It won't be an ordinary famine of hearing the words of the Lord. People will wander from sea to sea, and roam from the north to the east, searching for the Word of the Lord, but thy won't find it" (Amos 8:11-12). There's a real sadness in these words. People are looking, and they're not finding. They know they're looking for something, but they don't know what it is. It is the Word of the Lord. May God help us to continue speaking the Word of the Lord and looking to Him to send the blessing.
"I will restore and rebuild My people, Israel, as they were a long time ago" (Amos 9:11,14). This is not about good times and bad times. Sometimes, we have good times. Sometimes, we have bad times. This is about the blessing of God, which comes to us from the faithfulness of God. We must never forget the Lord. Real blessing comes from Him. God-given blessing is more than things turning out all right for us. It's having a real sense that the Lord is with us, that He's showing us how much He loves us, that He's leading us into a closer walk with Himself, and that He's leading us to give all the glory to Him.

Pitchers and catchers have reported for spring training; now it's your turn. The Tosa Baseball League is registering players for baseball and fastpitch softball. Children who live in Wauwatosa or attend Wauwatosa schools, and who are between the ages of seven and 15 as of September first, are eligible to play.
Tosa Baseball, which was founded more than 40 years ago, is an independent league. The league encourages a competitive level that is age appropriate for each bracket, and players get the opportunity to learn and play multiple positions to determine their best place to excel.
"Children develop athletic abilities at varying ages, so we ensure that all players see even playing time," emphasized James Ingbretson, league president.
Tosa Baseball is a co-ed league and is divided into four divisions: Rookie, for ages seven and eight; World, for ages nine and ten; American, for ages 11 and 12; and National, for ages 13 & 14.
Tosa Girls' Fastpitch is similarly divided into Junior, Minors, Majors, and Seniors.
Teams are drafted in late March or early April, and outdoor practices start in May on local fields in Wauwatosa and Milwaukee; however, registered players can take advantage of free indoor practices at Tosa Baseball's Extra Innings warehouse, located at the corner of 92nd Street and Center Street.
Games begin in June and are played through mid-July, at which time the league holds a tournament. At the end of the season, every player receives a recognition trophy.
Registration is available online http://www.leaguelineup.com/miscinfo.asp?menuid=32&url=tosabaseball&sid=455425696. The cost is $165 per player, but rebates are available for families who volunteer.
"The success of this league is dependent on volunteers and sponsors," said Ingbretson. "Many of our coaches played Tosa Baseball as children. The coaches, our team managers, equipment managers, special events coordinators and other key volunteers make this a fun, safe league for our families."

Reasonably priced London HotelPosted Nov 17, 2014
Cons: Quality of continental breakfast eg provide a variety of breakfast rolls and preserves. Invest in a new toaster.
Location: Easily access from Central London on the Bakerloo line.
We chose this hotel as it was near a relative who lives in Maida Vale. It was reasonably priced and near to Kilburn Park tube station. The furnishings and fittings were of a good standard and although the hotel sits on a main road it was very quiet as the windows have secondary glazing. We saw the reviews about the rooms being stuffy but we coped by turning on the air conditioning whilst we were out in the evening to cool our room down. There are plenty of places where you can eat out nearby or like us you can find good restaurants and gastro pubs on Abbey Road which is about a 10 minute walk from the hotel. There is also reasonably priced food available at the hotel. The only down side to our stay was the quality of the breakfast. The toaster had seen better days and we had to speak to the restaurant manager when the only jam ran out an hour and a quarter before the end of breakfast service. Staff, after some persuasion went over the road to the supermarket to get some more jam.

wifi did not work in room,problems with doorPosted Nov 3, 2014
One of the biggest amenities that attracted me to the hotel was the free wifi. I live overseas so the wifi was to be used as my primary source of communication with family/friends while in London. When I got to there, the wifi was only available in the lobby and not the room in which I stayed. I complained to the staff multiple times and they stated that they would restart the router but it did not produce a connection in the room and they did not offer to swap my room for another with a better wifi connection. Another issue was the bathroom door. The bathroom door did not close all the way and when we complained, the staff did nothing. This was a very bad hotel experience.

An uncomfortable experience.Posted Oct 22, 2014
Pros: The chocolate croissants at breakfast.
Cons: The 15" high room chair, tiny desk space, wifi service, shoddy bathroom counter & room trim, floor tile mold, the unreachable closet hangers. Comfort.
Location: The area has a Tube station that's 3 stops from the Heathrow Express at Paddington. Easy Tube or bus ride to the center of London.
We chose this hotel because we believed Best Western was always a safe choice for a decent stay at a mid-range price. The Best Western Maitrise was a complete disappointment. The room was so uninviting we avoided it except to sleep. The room was quite small but we expected that. However, the furnishings were terrible. The one armless tiny chair sat no more than 15 inches from the floor while the so-called desk area was at least 32 inches high (sort of chest-high while sitting) -- it was a shelf that had space for a coffee maker and cups but almost none of our items. The bathroom had expensive plumbing fixtures combined weirdly with a wooden counter with water damage and cheap wooden trim that looked like it was installed by unskilled carpenters. The same crude trim was used in the bedroom. The detachable closet hangers were attached at a strange height, at least 6 1/2 feet, so flipping the hangers free was like a carnival game. The small refrigerator was in the closet and gave off heat that made the closed closet like an oven. The wifi worked periodically for a few minutes before cutting out. The hotel lobby seemed to be the only place wifi worked. The included breakfast was satisfactory but one morning they ran out of key food items. The staff was pleasant but seemed to be in denial about the strange room facilities and bad wifi. I wish we'd stayed at the Marriott down the street. The Best Western Maitrise was an awful experience.

Maida Vale hotel reviewPosted Oct 17, 2014
Cons: See above.
I got a message from the hotel the evening before my stay which was left after 5pm saying that there had been a problem with bookings and they had cancelled my booking. I telephoned them and pointed out that I had paid. They then told me to come and they would cancel another guest. They took a deposit on my arrival. Soon after my arrival, the receptionist just let himself into my room. He said he had got the wrong room and someone had said there was a problem with the air conditioning. There was no natural light in the room. The breakfast was disappointing, weak coffee, no refill offered and they ran out of croissants with a 10 to 15 minute wait for more.

Excellent value for moneyPosted Sep 8, 2014
Pros: Very clean and excellent value for money
Cons: Stayed with a friend; we both agreed the single beds are a little on the small side. Not an big issue though
Location: Overground station across the road, for quick trip to and from Euston. Underground not too far away either
In London for an overnight stay, nice hotel, friendly and helpful staff. Already booked for my next stay

Difficult to findPosted Jul 18, 2014 on Hotels.com
Stayed on 7/14/14. Hotel is clean, staff friendly. They'll hold your bags for you after checkout so you can explore London (for a fee) which was nice. Rooms are modern, comfy, and clean. Thought our AC was broken, but it turns out you have to insert your room key into a slot in the wall to "turn on" the room once in. Great idea and never seen before, but a label for it would have been nice. The only troubling bit was finding it. Part was our fault, I booked assuming it'd be a Best Western, with ample signage. There's not, none. It is just the Maîtrise Hotel. Hotels.com was a little misleading there. After walking for 3 miles (with all our luggage), the location is actually great. 3 minute walk down Cambridge to the Bakerloo Line at Kilburn Park. From the station, walk up the hill (Cambridge Rd) once you hit Kilburn High Rd, make a right (Tesco Express will be on your left), 2 shops down on your right hand side, next to an alterations shop. As stated, don't bother looking for Best Western. Now that we know where it is, will stay again, and with an Oyster Card, you can't beat this hotel for its location and price and ease of getting into the heart of London.

Templates are fully editable: you can add your own background picture, edit default text or add and format your own captions.
To add life to the slideshow, you can make use of the Virtual Screen feature and apply a default design template to a picture. For example, photos can be viewed framed on the virtual monitor, banner board, school blackboard and screen of the movie theater. What's more, you can add music files in MP3, WMA WAV and arrange playback order. At any moment of the design process you can preview the slideshow in the built-in player.
Photo slideshow software offers different output formats. The slideshow can be saved as AVI video, HD video, video for mobile devices like smart phones, iPhone, iPod, PSP, as well as an executable slideshow, and auto-run DVD photo slideshow.

Nutrition on Speed: 5 Essential Juice Recipes for Fit Guys
How can juicing boost your workout performance? Here, five fruit and vegetable juice recipes built to increase energy and speed up muscle recovery.
4. Peak Performance
Another natural antidote that might spur the body's recovery after brutally intense workouts is tart cherry juice, which research has found to reduce symptoms of exercise-induced muscle damage. (Worth noting: in many such studies, participants took down about two 12-ounce glasses of tart cherry juice daily.) Made with sour Montmorency cherries, tart cherry juice just doesn't taste so palatable by itself, but pairing it with sweeter apple or pear juice makes it go down more smoothly.
Make It: Juice 1 green apple; 1/2 cup strawberries; 1/2 pound organic tart cherries, pits removed; 2 ribs celery; 1/2 cucumber, peeled if not organic; 1/2 lemon, peeled if not organic.
