It's happened before, it could happen again, and this DVD graphically depicts what it will be like when a massive extraterrestrial body slams into the Earth!
- MEGA DISASTERS explores the worst of what could happen.
- Stunning computer graphics and actual footage combine to create convincing pictures of the risks faced by U.S. cities.
- Comets have crashed into the Earth before, and its only a matter of time before it happens again!
It has happened before, and it could happen again. What makes storms, earthquakes and other events into natural disasters is not how they occur, but where they strike.
MEGA DISASTERS asks the what ifs? no one ever wants to face. A masterful blend of actual footage, computer graphics and interviews with leading scientists and public safety experts explores the outer limits of what could happen if everything went wrong.
Imagine the awesome effect of a three-mile wide comet crashing into the Indian Ocean. Scientists suggest that such a cataclysmic event, occurring about 4800 years ago, could have been the inspiration for the Bible's Great Flood. It would have decimated 60% of the Earth's population!
Now, imagine such a comet striking the Pacific Ocean near modern-day San Francisco. In vivid detail, MEGA DISASTERS evokes just such a terrible event. Witness as millions of lives are lost and the Earth is consumed by mega tsunamis, earthquakes, torrential rains and nuclear winter.
Is there a comet out there with our name on it? If so, this MEGA DISASTERS DVD dramatically reveals what we can expect - and it ain't pretty.

I am making raw chocolate, but having difficulty making it last more than a week or 10 days
I've read through these posts looking for advice. But I am not making it from the bean
I mostly use Sunfoods Raw Cacao Powder/ Mesquite/ Soy Lecithin / Vanilla... sometimes Spirulina
Mix it up and add Cacao Butter / Coconut Oil / Agave until I get a paste
I set it in the fridge and it gets hard (more like a brownie consistency left out)
but after a week it starts going a little off...
I have read the water content in Agave ma make it go bad...?
So i have even done experiments with coconut crystals to sweeten it, so the only binding liquid is the butter, but then the chocolate is too brittle. I like the slightly maleable (almosy brownie like consistency.
How would I go about making this last longer?
Should I use more cacao butter ?
Is there some trick to making it shelf stable?
Thanks so much, in advance

When the chocolate "goes off" what does that mean? Does it start to taste rancid? Is mold growing? What's happening?
'Morning Clay,
It's hard to describe. Not moldy, but soapy tasting, almost like it's heading towards rancid...
It has been suggested that maybe it's the water content in the Agave.
Any suggestions are appreciated
Certainly, free water in the agave syrup (or any other ingredient) is a contributor.
One way to test this is to make the exact same recipe but leave out the agave. If, in a week, you don't get the taste change you know that the water in the agave is encouraging the growth of something. You can then try an alternative form of sweetener (e.g., coconut palm sugar).
If you do get the taste change, make the recipe removing one ingredient at a time until the taste change does not happen. Now you know what ingredient is reacting with the water in the agave and you can find a substitute.
It may be that the cocoa powder/mass you are using has mold or other spores in it. These are much harder to control than in "cooked" chocolate because of the low temperature processing. You have to be much cleaner working, too.
If it is developing a soapy taste then saponification of either the cocoa butter and/or coconut oil is likely at fault. A metallic alkali reacts with a fat or oil to form soap.
Sunfood claims that it's cocoa is 'lower acid' than other cocoa - meaning higher pH and also high in magnesium, therefore I believe making it a 'metallic alkali'.
I'm uncertain if lowering the pH in some way may prevent this from happening, perhaps acidifying your agave in some way.
This is a brilliant explanation and addresses the specific taste. The first test I will do is to change the Cacao powder!
Thank you, I'll keep you posted.
Sounds like the cacao may have been dutched (alkalised) with either sodium or potassium carbonate to help it dissolve in water.
Interesting. I didn't realized that was what Dutched meant.
Thanks Ice
That's a great plan, Clay.
Will let you know how it goes...

|Okay, so Kira is going to Cardassia to help the Cardassians form a rebel movement. She will stick out like a sore thumb with her Bajoran nose, and many Cardassians will hate her and not want to listen to her because she is Bajoran. Why didn't Bashir just make her look like a Cardassian?
Speaking of Bashir, he states that it is very difficult to keep a supply of synthetic organs on hand in a battlefield situation, and that "the holy grail of organ replacement is to be able to find a way to inject the patient with undifferentiated tissue, so that it can become whatever organ is needed." Yes, that's a real problem. If only there was something like a small pill one could give a person which would cause them to immediately grow a whole fully functional replacement organ like a kidney in just a few minutes! Like, say, the pill that Doctor McCoy gave to the old woman in the hospital in Star Trek IV. A technology that would be about a century old by Bashir's time!
The Cardassian rebellion continues, but they are ill prepared for a gurilla war against a vastly superior enemy. They need an expert in terrorist tactics - and fortunately, Sisko happens to have one to hand. But are the Cardassians willing to take orders from none other than Colonel Kira? Meanwhile, Bashir makes a startling discovery regarding Odo and the disease affecting the Founders.

Chitose Abe presented her new men's collection for Sacai for Fall 2014 as part of Paris Fashion Week this weekend. We are becoming bigger fans of the brand with every season going by. The new collection sticks to its principals, playing with familiar and classic silhouettes, yet completely reinventing them with refreshing cuts, fabrics, design details and styling. The layering proposed by the brand always strikes us the most. A rather special inside-out look is the theme of the new collection.

Date: Dec 08, 2009
After much searching, I found these balloons (and the other products in the Lil Princess 1st Birthday series) to be the most beautiful and vibrant choice for our little girl's 1st B-day. All the products we ordered from this series exceeded our expectations upon arrival. The colors were rich, the art work was playful, and best of all, every item looked just like the lovely pictures on the website. When you buy products online, "what you see is what you get" is usually a rarity, but Celebrate Express made it a reality. Thank you for helping us make our daughter's 1st Birthday special and memorable.

Title: awful experience
Did not know or realize until the day of my baby girls 1st birthday party that the balloons had holes in them. When we went to blow up all the balloons the morning of the party these mylars had holes in them and would not hold air. Therefore they were useless! At that time it was too late to call customer service and get new balloons.

This case was The Best at keeping an iPhone 5 dry, cushioned, dirt- and dust-free, and fully functioning in tests by The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute. When submerged in 10" of water, lesser models immediately filled with liquid, but The Best Waterproof iPhone Case remained dry, even after soaking for four hours, making it ideal for use in rainy conditions. While inferior units popped open when dropped, The Best case remained unscathed after 10 drops from a height of 3', thanks to a shock-absorbing silicone insert and a reinforced plastic shell. The Best case also survived a test for being buried in sand without allowing a single grain to enter. Unlike the majority of tested models, The Best Waterproof iPhone Case was simple to fit over a phone and remove, and its ports are protected with silicone shields yet easily accessed. A lens cover prevents scratches yet allows sharp photos, and a built-in shield protects the screen without reducing visibility or responsiveness to touch. Includes lanyard. Not for diving or snorkeling. Compatible with iPhone 5/5s. 5 1/2" L x 3" W x 3/4" D. (4 oz.)

Security at the price of weight
By Illin Ois
from Chicago, IL
Phone is easy to get into/out-of the case and the unit seems very high quality / durable. All this protection comes at a price -- the unit is a bit heavy. Also, the finger print scanner doesn't work through the case (as you might expected, but I didn't) -- I'd be surprised if any rugged/waterproof case would.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Interview, Excerpt, Product Closeup
Life and love tensions escalate when a string of crimes threaten the Amish community, and handsome FBI agent Thomas Mast arrives to investigate.Is there truth behind Meghan's fear that she's the cause for disruptions in the serene county? And is there true love behind her mixed feelings for Thomas, the outsider?
Interview, Excerpt
When a heartless judge confines Abigail to the county jail, her younger sister, Catherine, comes to care for the home while Daniel works his fields. Catherine meets Daniel's reclusive cousin, Isaiah, who's deaf and thought to be simple-minded by his community. She teaches him how to communicates with his fellow man, and in so doing, discovers he possesses unexpected gifts and talents. Catherine makes a difference in all their lives and in return, finds love, while Isaiah discovers God, who cares not for our handicaps or limitations.

The OP's questions seem to me to be based on certain errors.
He seems to regard a process as a single thing. Thus he takes the continuity of that process as equating to the persistence of a thing. Thus he faults the process for not bearing the mark of anicca. But as far as I know, the Buddha did not teach the 3 marks in this way. Simply, Theravada teaches the supporting condition for a moment of consciousness to be a previous moment of consciousness. Each consciousness moment arises and passes, thus bearing the mark of anicca, inconstancy. Thus not-self. That a process continues to function as long as the supporting conditions continue to arise does not mean constancy is to be found in the process. This is because the details of the process are always changing: one consciousness moment may follow another in an unbroken stream but a particular individual moment will be different than many of the ones before it. This is the mark of anicca, inconstancy. Because it is always changing it is unstable, thus stressful, thus not worthy of clinging to as a self.
Which brings me to the next error: the nature of anatta. The Buddha teaches anatta in a very specific way:
"Form, monks, is not self. If form were the self, this form would not lend itself to dis-ease. It would be possible [to say] with regard to form, 'Let this form be thus. Let this form not be thus.' But precisely because form is not self, form lends itself to dis-ease. And it is not possible [to say] with regard to form, 'Let this form be thus. Let this form not be thus.'"
Something is atta because it does not become ill or broken or troublesome; it is atta because it is controllable. The Buddha does not say (here or elsewhere as far as I know) that something is atta simply because it continues. Here's the other important thing he teaches about anatta:
"[It is not] fitting to regard what is unstable, stressful, subject to change as: 'This is mine. This is my self. This is what I am'."
Consider this: samsara is a process which continues. If merely continuing qualified it as a self then it would be fit to cling to. But it is precisely because the process of samsara is so unstable that it is stressful and therefore not worth clinging to. It is unstable because sometimes you've got pleasures and sometimes you've got pains and there's nothing you can do about that. In a similar way the consciousness process is unstable: sometimes your conscious of something nice, sometimes something not so nice. It is anicca, thus it is dukkha, thus it is anatta.
To call a process a "psuedo-self" merely because that process continues appears to me to be using one's own definition of "self" in place of the Buddha's.
When this arises, that arises. When this ceases, that ceases.
All compounded things are unstable.
[It is not] fitting to regard what is unstable, stressful, subject to change as: 'This is mine. This is my self. This is what I am'.
I hope this is helpful.

I was born and raised in Chicago,Illinois and still located in the city. I love to travel and explore new places as often as I can. I absolutely love places where I can see many stars so I imagine I will move far away from the city at some point. I have been modeling on and off since 2007, it started off as a hobby enjoying dressing up with my wardrobe collection I would take photos with friends,eventually I put some photos on modelmayhem and deviantart ,my portfolio grew as I was asked to shoot more and more, I definitely did not expect soo many wonderful opportunities to come from it and I have collaborated with a lot of great people. I really enjoy being creative,expressive with both body and mind, and hope my work can continue to inspire others. I have experience also with runway, wardrobe styling, acting and stand-in work.
In addition to modeling I do photography,and run a shop that sells wigs and hair extensions

Review: 2008 Subaru Tribeca
by Dan Roth (RSS feed) on Jun 29th, 2007 at 1:07PM
"It looks like a puppy," my wife said upon first setting eyes on the 2008 Subaru Tribeca. That's an apt description of any Subaru; they usually feel quite eager from behind the wheel, and they're trusty companions. The new front end on the Tribeca is more bland than the outgoing aviation-inspired look, but that hasn't dulled the inherent goodness of this big CUV.The power unit has also seen upgrades. B9-era Tribecas (the alphanumeric has been dropped for '08) had 3.0 liters of horizontally opposed 6 cylinder to haul 4300 pounds. Power delivery was on the revvy side, so maximum torque...

After participating in one online workshop for memoir and personal essay writing I would caution other writers that this genre may be better suited to a physical classroom that allows writers to get a personal sense of one another. To potential instructors I would suggest that teaching memoir writing online is likely to be an intense experience.
Without an experienced workshop moderator online who is fully prepared to manage reactions to unexpected, powerful subject matter the critquing part of the course can go awry.The intimacy of personal writing leaves the author with no bush to hide behind and often ignites comments with high octane emotional content. Online critiquing can easily swerve off subject, be unnecessarily harsh or cause a writer to doubt the value of their work. When workshop participants are talking to a computer screen rather than a live human being they can say things they would never say in person. Too many comments in raw form are discouraging rather than encouraging and defeat the purpose of the workshop. Comments need to be moderated for helpfulness by the instructor who may not have that kind of time.

Why Supporting Your Mustangs Chassis is Important
Adding go fast goodies, like a Tune, Pullies, a Cold Air Intake or Exhaust upgrades are a great way to increase the power of your Mustang. What good is all that extra power if your uni-body Mustang twists and flexes preventing that power from getting to the ground? Thats why subframe connectors and/or tower braces are one of the first modifications that should be done to any uni-body vehicle especially if youre planning power upgrades in the future.
The Mustangs Uni-body Construction
Ford Mustangs use what is called a uni-body design. This is where the frame and body is a single combined unit. In a uni-body vehicle, the floor pan (the metal underside of the vehicle) is an integral part of the main structure to which all the mechanical components are attach. Alternatively, a body-on-frame design is where the body and mechanical components are attached directly to a ladder-style frame. Check out the two images below for comparison. The upside of the uni-body design is that its lightweight. The downside is that its not as rigid as a body-on-frame vehicle so it can begin to twist and flex, resulting in poor handling and loss of drivetrain power. This problem can be easily solved with the help of added suspension mods like
Mustang Subframe Connectors Reduce Flex
Subframe connectors are exactly what the name implies. They connect the front subframe (which houses the engine and front suspension components) to the rear subframe (which contains the rear suspension components) to create a full perimeter frame that increases the overall strength and rigidity of your Mustang.
There are two basic types of subframe connectors:
• Bolt-on
• Weld-in
Bolt-on subframe connectors literally bolt into place, making them simple to install in just a couple of hours in your own driveway or garage with basic hand tools. Drilling may be required in some applications.
Weld-in subframe connectors on the other hand are much more difficult to install requiring professional welding and in some cases removal of the interior carpet to prevent a fire. The benefits of the weld-in connectors is that they become a permanent part of the vehicles chassis creating a much stronger structure with no mechanical fasteners that can fail.
Mustang Tower Braces
Another great way to eliminate unwanted chassis flex and body roll in a uni-body car equipped with a MacPherson style strut suspension is with a strut tower brace, also known as a strut bar.
The MacPherson style strut suspension used on the Mustang features a spring and strut/shock absorber that is bolted into the top of the inner wheel well, known as a strut/shock tower. The issue with this design is that the strut towers are not directly connected to the main chassis rails, which results in suspension and body flex, especially during spirited driving.
A strut tower brace is designed to reduce this excessive flex by connecting the two parallel strut towers together, front or rear. This transfers the load between the two towers during cornering to reduce chassis twist and flex.
There are two types of tower braces:
Strut Tower
Shock Tower
A Strut Tower Brace is designed to connect your front strut towers together and installs in your Mustangs engine compartment in less than an hour with basic hand tools.
A Shock Tower Brace is basically the same as a strut tower brace, only its designed to connect the rear shock towers together. It normally mounts in your Mustangs trunk or hatchback, depending on application.
Connect & Strengthen Your Mustangs Chassis
So if you want to get all of the ponies you paid for to the pavement and improve your handling at the same time, then you need to reinforce your uni-body Mustang with a set of subframe connectors and strut/shock tower braces. These upgrades not only benefit track and race cars, but they also benefit daily commuters that enjoy spirited driving.

A report released this week by the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation ranks each state's counties on health outcomes of disease and mortality as well as on factors that contribute to overall well-being.According to this report, Mesa County ranks 33rd in health outcomes and 33rd in health factors out of 59 counties ranked in Colorado.The report also shows how Mesa County ranks on individual factors that influence its overall health ranking. For example, Mesa County is strong in the area of clinical care, where it ranked 8 out of 59.However, the report indicates that Mesa County is at risk for poor health when it comes to health behaviors, where it ranked 46 out of 59, and mortality, where it ranked 36 out of 59. Primary factors contributing to the health behavior ranking are teen birth rates and rates of sexually transmitted infections. The mortality ranking is associated with Mesa County's rates of suicide and motor vehicle deaths.The online report is available at www.countyhealthrankings.org.

Our COMP 101 course teaches the basics of PC operation, files and folders, customization, MS Office, the internet and social media, online security and safety, and much more.
What sets this program apart from others is that lessons are customized to each individual, and delivered on a one-on-one basis, which removes a lot of the "classroom anxiety" from the learning environment that a lot of people feel. Classes are also flexible to fit into people's busy schedules.
I have observed that one of the biggest hurdles that people have in regards to learning the computer, and technology in general, is that they're afraid of messing something up. One of the first things I do is get them past that fear, and make them more comfortable with their computer. Another thing that I do that doesn't seem to be covered in most classes is I teach about online safety. With the proliferation of malware that we're seeing these days, one can never be too careful, and it is all too easy for a new computer user to become ensnared by malicious software, and lose their personal data. I have found that a basic education can assist a person in avoiding these potentially intrusive and expensive pitfalls. "Forewarned is forearmed."
What can your customers expect from you? I adhere to the philosophy that each client is unique, and has unique learning needs. What works for one person isn't necessarily going to work for all of the others. With that in mind, one of the first things I do with each client is sit down with them for about 20 minutes, to try to gauge exactly where they are in terms of working with the computer, and what their exact learning needs are.
One person may be primarily interested in learning the MS Office programs in order to further their employability, therefore it would make little sense to focus on things like social media with that person. Another individual might be mostly interested in email and Facebook - an entire hour of material on Excel spreadsheets would be of little value to them.
I have been a computer repair technician for quite some time, and through that have noted that questions that most people ask regarding the operation of their computers. I have noticed a need in the community for computer instruction that doesn't expect people to fit into some educational mold, and allows for individual learning needs. My major in college was actually psychology, which I feel has equipped me with a set of social tools and insights unique to the computer field. This combination allows me to present lessons in a manner that allows people to better learn the material.
I can say that it is rather rewarding when teaching a person, you see them come to that "ah-ha" moment - when all the pieces fall together, and they just "get it."
When you know that you have taught someone something that they can carry with them for the rest of their lives, and they can utilize that new-found skill for personal growth and enrichment.
I am a huge fan of literacy programs, or really anything that gets children to read. Recently, I was at the Friends of the Library book sale, and overheard a young boy exclaiming to his parents "Oh! This book is awesome!" I was overjoyed to see a child so enthralled by what most see as a basic skill, and quite frankly take for granted.

Stepping away from the architectural status quo of a residential neighborhood en route to the famed and magical Ha Long Bay, Vo Trong Nghia stacked hundreds of smooth blue stones on top of one another in a curvilinear structure. Topped with a rising green roof that creates a continuous thread of vegetation, the home is arranged around a central oval courtyard.
In addition to promoting air circulation, the courtyard provides a sense of intimacy. And whilst the house might look "primitive" on the outside, we assure you, it is anything but. With their signature class, the designers have used a rich palette of natural materials to adorn the interior, which is warm and cozy and perfectly framed. There's plenty of light and the home is kept cool thanks to thermal massing and the green roof. Is it any wonder that Vo Trong Nghia has been featured on Inhabitat half a dozen times?
