Rogers Media is planning a major multi-platform campaign in support of its launch of the new specialty channel, FX Canada.

Headlining the marketing campaign is a promotional stunt for cheeky comedy series Wilfred, the company describes. Beginning Monday, October 31, Wilfred "dogs" will infiltrate key markets across the country including Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver. From public transit to bustling city corners to marquee sporting events, the dogs will be integrated in daily commuter activities in promotion of the critically-acclaimed series.
Rolling out in a tiered phase across multiple media in advance of the launch, the multi-faceted campaign is targeted to build awareness of the channel's acclaimed programming including provocative drama series American Horror Story and dark comedy series Wilfred.
The multi-platform media mix includes television, radio, digital, OOH and print.
Leading up to the launch, targeted television promos showcasing the ground-breaking programming line-up are running across all Rogers-owned networks and channels. Plus, 30-second radio spots and 10-second tags are scheduled to run across the country, in addition to print ads in newspaper and weekly Rogers Media publications HELLO! Canada and Maclean's. Also, out-of-home advertising such as billboards, transit shelters, subway/transit interiors, bus sides and other digital displays have been unveiled in numerous markets. A mix of display, pre-roll videos and search engine ad placements will support the digital campaign across various online networks including You Tube, AOL, Google and Yahoo!.
Rogers Digital and EastLink subscribers will be offered a two-month free-view with unlimited access to the extensive, ground-breaking programming on the specialty channel. Programming will also be available on Rogers Online On Demand service.
FX Canada will be available in standard and high definition to Rogers Digital and EastLink subscribers beginning Monday, October 31. Rogers Digital subscribers can find FX Canada on channel 318 (standard definition - in Ontario and select systems in New Brunswick and Newfoundland) and 565 (high definition - Ontario only). EastLink subscribers can find the channel on 667 (high definition). As SD channel placement may vary in some EastLink regions, viewers are encouraged to check local listings for additional information.
FX Canada will premiere with the highly-anticipated new drama series American Horror Story from the producers of Nip/Tuck and Glee, Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. This provocative psycho-sexual thriller stars Connie Britton (Friday Night Lights), Dylan McDermott (The Practice), Academy Award® winner Jessica Lange (Grey Gardens), Frances Conroy (Six Feet Under), Taissa Farmiga (Higher Ground) and Denis O'Hare (True Blood). Other series included in the robust FX Canada schedule include current season episodes of the hit comedy The League; the Emmy Award nominated comedy Louie, starring Louis C.K.; the first two seasons of the Golden Globe-winning drama Sons of Anarchy; Lights Out; and Terriers.

Army mates flag up Grimsby Poachers reunion event
Posted: January 21, 2013|
COMRADES will fly the flag of their Lincolnshire regiment with pride during their annual reunion.
Members of the Grimsby Poachers will join together again at their fifth reunion at the Beachcomber, Humberston, in March.
The event unites those who have served in the Second Battalion Royal Anglian Regiment – known as The Poachers – of which Grimsby is the main recruitment area.
For the former servicemen, many of whom served in Northern Ireland during the infamous 1981 hunger strike, it is a chance to reminisce with people who have seen and been through similar experiences.
Corporal Tim Smith, 55, joined The Poachers in 1978. He said: "I don't think civilians realise what people like us go through and see.
"We served in Northern Ireland together during the early days, which were very bad.
"It means there is a strong bond between us all."
When the Grimsby Poachers' Reunion Committee signed up in the 1970s, the Army recruited by county.
Many signed up from Grimsby, which meant when The Poachers were deployed, it felt like "home from home" wherever they were.
Denis Watson finished his Army career as a warrant officer. He said: "No one who has served any length of time finds the same comradery in civilian life as they do in the military.
"When we joined, there were so many people from the same area serving along side each other, going out to the same places together and coming back home together, it was like home from home.
"Seeing our old friends who we haven't seen for years can be quite emotional.
"We all went through such a lot together and seeing them all again will be like turning back time for one night."
The reunion will see about 500 Poachers past and present descend on Cleethorpes and organisers have already sold about 180 tickets.
And, as the reputation of the reunion reaches all four corners of the world – with guests arriving from Canada and Trinidad – organisers hope more new faces will join the party.
The night will begin at 7pm on March 23 and includes a buffet, disco, a surprise entertainer and charity raffle to raise money for the regiment.

Minneapolis, Minnesota
This iReport is part of an assignment:
Have you been affected by AIDS?
Daniel Rick convicted of knowingly spreading HIV virus
The man who had sex with Rick in the spring of 2009, when the two had known each other only briefly, told police the encounter was wholly consensual. But Rick didn't mention his HIV infection to the other man, who soon fell ill.
Rick, now 26, had known of his own illness for at least three years at that point, but never -- not before, during, or after the unprotected sex -- mentioned his affliction to his partner, who figured it out only after doctors told him he was HIV-positive.
On Friday, a jury found Rick guilty of felony assault. His conviction, which is classified as a first-degree assault, is the first of its kind in Hennepin County. Daniel is also facing trial for two other similar cases.
After Rick and the other man met online and exchanged messages for some time, Rick came in to the Saloon Bar, where his victim worked as a bartender. At the end of his shift, the bartender went to meet Rick for a late-night hook-up.
During the anal sex, during which neither man wore a condom, Rick ejaculated inside the other man, according to the criminal complaint filed in March 2010 by the Hennepin County Attorney's Office.
Spokesman Chuck Laszewski confirmed that Rick is the first person in the county convicted under the crime of felony assault for "knowing transfer of communicable disease," and Laszewski said it might also be the first of its kind in Minnesota.
The jury's conviction, which came down on Friday, means Rick's fate now lies in the hands of the judge. A sentencing hearing is scheduled for Nov. 28, which will also be used to set a trial date for two other cases being brought against Rick.

500W Power Inverter Circuit using Transistor 2N3055
This is the scheme diagram of 500W power inverter circuit which build using 10 pieces of well-known NPN power transistor 2N3055 to amplify the AC signal produced by multivibrator. The frequency generator / multivibrator is built based on transistors too. All of the components is easy to gathered from the electronic store.
This 500W power inverter converts a 12V input voltage from the car battery (rated at 12V/50A for maximum power output). The output will be 220V AV output, or you may use 110V transformer if you want to achieve 110V AC output. The power transistor 2N3055 should be mounted on heatsink, so the heat will be spread over the heatsink and prevent the transistor from overheeating.
Warning: This is a high voltage circuit, use safety equipment when trying to run this circuit.

Creamy Indian-spiced vegan sweet potato soup recipe {gluten-free}
Once upon a time, I didn't need a scorecard to remember my family's culinary preferences. Now that I'm firmly entrenched in middle age, I forget who loves olives, who hates mushrooms, who likes tomatoes on their pizza and who won't eat anything green. So, it was inevitable that, when I cooked a big holiday dinner for my stepson and grandkids, I would get something wrong, and I came home with three pounds of leftover mashed sweet potatoes that none of the kids would touch. Lucky me: I turned those already-mashed potatoes into this rich and creamy Indian-spiced sweet potato soup. It's vegan and gluten-free, and you can make it even if you don't have leftovers. Top each individual bowl with traditional curry garnishes (cashews, raisins, chopped apple or shredded coconut) to create a hearty one-dish meal.

Tour a Georgian Home in Massachusetts Filled with History
Abby Cahill O'Brien left her birthplace for city life. Then, the prospect of living in a historic inn drew her back.
Plus: Shop more great finds inspired by this home on Wayfair! »
By Lisa Schwarzbaum
Guest Room
The O'Briens had to deal with baggage they brought from New York City, including midcentury furniture. To help it all make sense in the historic house, Abby called on her old roommate Amy Meier, an interior designer.
In this photo: An Ikea bed, stationed amidst a weather-beaten trunk, reads more Shaker than minimalist. Old photos, taken when the house was a lodge, decorate the guest room. To create the ceiling's tone-on-tone stripes, Abby chose two cans of the same color and asked her paint store to dilute one by 50 percent.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Sam Alert: Latest RV-Related Recalls from NHTSA
September 17, 2010 by Good Sam · 8 Comments
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has issued recall notices for the following products related to the recreational vehicle industry.

The 2012 Lollapalooza Severe Weather Plan makes emergency decisions a joint process, declaring that "the internal decision to suspend festival activities and move patrons to a safe area rests with the (promoter) C3 Presents partners, in conjunction with City of Chicago Public Safety Officials."
An independent expert who analyzed what happened at the Indiana State Fair, where seven concert-goers were killed, said plans should leave no ambiguity about who makes the final call in an emergency.
"It is not in the best interest of public safety to have ambiguity about who is responsible for the decision about whether the show should be delayed," said Charlie Fisher of Witt Associates, which conducted an eight-month independent assessment of emergency preparedness by the Indiana State Fair.
"It should be very clear: 'This is who is going to make the call,' and 'This is how the call is going to be made.'"
Fisher said he was speaking generally about concert safety, not about what was happening in Chicago, because has not reviewed the plan here.
The Indiana State Fair Commission has updated its emergency management plan to designate the fair's newly hired chief operating officer as the ultimate decision-maker on evacuation, said Fisher, who has reviewed the revised plan in Indiana.
C3's written weather plan for a music festival it runs in Austin, Texas, acknowledges that city officials would have final authority in any emergency, something Lollapalooza's weather plan does not do.
C3 spokeswoman Shelby Meade said that even if it's not in writing, C3 staff know that city public safety officials are the ultimate emergency decision-makers at Lollapalooza.
But the advice of a state police captain to evacuate the grandstand at the Indiana State Fair initially went unheeded — despite the fact that the fairgrounds were under state police jurisdiction — because the State Fair director and the band's tour manager disagreed with the police recommendation. The conflict likely delayed evacuation of the Indiana State Fair grandstand Aug. 13, 2011, as high winds approached and may have contributed to the seven deaths and more than 40 injuries that occurred when the stage structure toppled over into the audience.
As the storm drew close, the Witt report found, authorities on the ground gave conflicting advice. The state police captain made his recommendation to evacuate. The tour manager for the band, Sugarland, wanted the concert to go forward.
Without clear guidance on who should make the decision, Indiana State Fair director Cindy Hoye agreed to go forward with the concert, explaining later to investigators that "nobody is going to tell (the band) what to do." The Witt report found that by the time Hoye decided to defer to the police captain, it was too late. The structure collapsed as the fair director and police captain were on their way up to the stage to order an evacuation.
Bands would not have a say in a weather evacuation of Lollapalooza in Chicago, but the promoter clearly does, according to the official plan. Delores Robinson, spokeswoman for Chicago's Office of Emergency Management and Communications, said stopping or evacuating the concert would be "a joint decision, a collaborated decision between C3 Partners and city of Chicago public safety officials."
Melissa Stratton, director of news affairs for Chicago police, said that "should the need arise, the city will take whatever steps are necessary to ensure the safety of event attendees and residents, while working closely with the event organizers at every step."
Both C3 Presents and Chicago's emergency management office say the kind of conflict that undermined safety at the Indiana State Fair could never happen at Lollapalooza.
"Because of the strong relationship and shared role C3 and the city have taken in developing this festival and ensuring fan safety, there is no conceivable scenario where there would be a conflict about how to proceed," Meade said.
"I don't see there arising a conflict," agreed Robinson, the emergency management office spokeswoman, "because everyone there is operating for the safety of the public."
Meade said "there is no ambiguity" about how emergency decisions are made: "Only the city and C3 are involved in the decision-making process during an emergency and we are in full agreement on a unified approach."

Exercise is very important for good health. Your healthcare provider may tell you that you need to get more exercise. To do this, you will need to get into the habit of exercising so that it becomes part of your normal daily or weekly routine. The best exercise for you is one that you enjoy and that you will do on a regular basis. If you start a jogging program, but hate to jog, you are not likely to keep it up. Find an activity you enjoy, perhaps basketball, soccer, dance, or hiking. Try to involve family members or friends. Join a team or an exercise class and make it fun.
You can get exercise at many times of the day. For example, take the stairs instead of an elevator, park far away in a parking lot and walk briskly to the store, or walk during your lunch break. The benefits are lifelong - so have fun and stick to it!
An aerobic exercise is any activity that makes your muscles use oxygen. When you are doing an aerobic exercise, your heart has to work harder to get more oxygen to your muscles. This makes your heart stronger. Endurance exercises such as biking, jogging, walking, swimming, or basketball are considered aerobic.
Aerobic exercise:
Anaerobic exercise is high intensity, strenuous activity such as weight lifting or sprinting. It is done to build strength, improve speed, and lose body fat.
You have the opportunity to do this kind exercise often during the day. Carrying groceries or sprinting to catch a bus are considered anaerobic exercise.
Interval training is a great anaerobic exercise. An interval can be done with many types of exercise (for example, running, biking, swimming, or weight lifting). An interval is done by increasing your pace for a short period of time (for example, between 10 to 60 seconds) then having a slow recovery period that is at least 3 times as long as the interval. To interval train, you simply repeat these bursts of exercise during the course of your workout. For example, you run for 30 seconds, then walk for 2 minutes, run for 30 seconds, walk for 2 minutes and so on.
One benefit from anaerobic exercise is that it may raise your metabolic rate for nearly 18 hours after the activity is finished. This means you may burn calories at a faster rate well after the exercise is completed. This can help you lose weight. In contrast, aerobic exercise only raises your metabolic rate for 2 hours.
There are three ways to measure your exercise: frequency, duration, and intensity.
After a few weeks of training, you can continue improving your level of fitness by increasing the frequency, duration, or intensity of your exercise.
To figure out your target heart rate, you first need to figure out your maximum heart rate (MHR). Your maximum heart rate is calculated by subtracting your age from 220.
220 - Age = MHR
For example, if you are 40 years old, your MHR would be 180 beats per minute.
220 - 40 (years old) = 180 beats per minute
Next, figure out your target heart rate. Your target heart rate is based on a percentage of your MHR For aerobic activity, try to keep your heart rate between 50% and 85% of your MHR. For example, if you are 40 years old your target heart rate range should be 90 to 153 beats per minute.
180 (MHR) X 0.5 (50%) = 90 beats per minute
180 (MHR) X .85 (85%) = 153 beats per minute
During exercise, check your pulse from time to time to see if you are within your target heart rate range. Do this by finding your pulse on the thumb side of your wrist or on your neck beside your Adam's apple. Use a clock or watch with a secondhand to count the number of heartbeats in 10 seconds. Multiply that number by 6 to get the number of heartbeats per minute. Some exercise machines will measure your heart rate when you put your hands on special sensors. You can also buy a heart rate monitor that you wear.
For aerobic exercise, if your heart rate is too fast (over your 85% mark) then slow down. If your heart rate is below your 50% mark then you need to pick up your pace.
You should include warm-up and cool-down exercises before and after exercise. Muscles that have not been used are cool. Doing calisthenics and dynamic stretching or walking slowly for 5 to 10 minutes before beginning your workout warms your muscles, making them more flexible and less prone to injury.
Right after exercise, allow your heart rate to return slowly to normal. Walking slowly, for example, will let you cool down and let your heart and breathing to return to normal levels. You should also stretch the muscles you used during your exercise. Devote a total of 5 to 10 minutes to cooling down.

Walter Neff (MacMurray), bleeding from a bullet wound, staggers into an office building. As he speaks into his dictating machine, we learn in flashback that he is an insurance salesman who becomes involved with the sleek Phyllis Dietrichson (Stanwyck). Phyllis convinces Walter not only to help her
take out a life insurance policy on her husband (Powers) without his knowledge, but also to help her murder him in order to collect on it. Staging an unlikely accident in order to qualify for the "double indemnity" clause in the contract, the deadly duo must next face claims adjustor Barton Keyes
(Robinson), whose instinct tells him that something suspicious is afoot. Their faith in their story and each other sorely tested, Walter and Phyllis finally square off in a fatal game of cat and mouse.
Wilder's typically passionless direction fits beautifully with this sinister story. On his first studio assignment, screenwriter Chandler peppered the dialogue from Cain's original with his distinctive brand of hardboiled cynicism. The results, as when Phyllis and Walter flirt by using the
extended metaphor of a speeding motorist, are terrific. Rosza contributes a typically edgy score and Seitz's cinematography makes great use of such noir trademarks as sharp camera angles, heavy, sculpted shadows and light slatted by venetian blinds. But it is really the starring trio which lends
bite to this compelling crime classic. Stanwyck, in a deliberately phony blonde wig, remade her career with her striking portrayal of an icy woman whose boredom and desire fuel a plot of murder and intrigue. MacMurray, in a great change of pace, gives the performance of his career as the shifty
loner excited by a challenge and a deadly dame's anklet. Robinson, meanwhile, beautifully gives the film its heart. His speech about death statistics, rattled off at top speed, is one of the film's highlights. Lifelessly remade for television in 1954 and 1973. leave a comment

WVHS Student Artwork Chosen to Represent Common Core Standards
As a part of its plan to integrate Common Core Standards – nationally recognized state standards in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics for grades K-12 - into instruction, Warwick Valley High School drew upon the creative talents of teachers and students to develop promotional posters.
Eliza Bender, a WVHS senior, designed the school's Common Core Standards poster based on an idea conceived by the Physical Education teachers, who came up with a crude visual representation of the four anchors in reading. Eliza then took that draft and created created a painting that was reproduced into posters to hang in each classroom and serve as a reminder of the Common Core Standards Anchors in Reading.
The Common Core
State Standards (CCSS) Initiative was a joint effort by the
National Governors Association Center for Best Practices (NGA
Center) and the
Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) www.ccsso.org in partnership with
Achieve, ACT, and the College Board. Through this initiative, Governors and state
commissioners of education from across the country committed to joining a state-led
process to develop a common core of state standards in English language arts (ELA)
and mathematics for grades K-12.
The CCSSO and NGA Center presented the final K-12 Common Core State Standards on June 2, 2010.The English language arts and mathematics standards represent a set of expectations for student knowledge and skills that high school graduates need to master to succeed in college and careers.
Both the CCSSO and the NGA Center worked with a wide range of educators, content experts, researchers, national organizations, and community groups from various states to develop the standards.
The criteria used to develop the college- and career-readiness and K-12 standards are:
• Aligned with college and work expectations
• Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high-order skills
• Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards
• Informed by top-performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society
• Evidence and/or research-based
On January 10,
2011, the Board of Regents approved the recommended additions
plus a new set of Pre-kindergarten Standards for New York State Schools.

Just when we were sympathising with our Australian neighbours and their bushfire woes, caused by a so-called dome of heat – really a broad mass of very hot (up to 49 degrees Celsius)air slowly moving across continental Australia – out of nowhere today pops a grass fire near Rolleston (sorry New Zealand viewers only). Within minutes, it has quickly gotten established and moves on neighbouring properties. Before very long, four properties are ablaze and New Zealand has just had a brutal dose of what Tasmanian's, Victorian's, South Australian's and people in New South Wales have been experiencing all week.
There is no doubt that in Australia if one lives in rural or urban areas, with eucalyptus trees in predominantly dry areas, come summer and the passage of continental heat coming out of the interior, conditions exist for bush fires. In 1967, 1983, 1994, 1999, 2003 and 2009 bush fires have claimed large numbers of lives and property. The 2009 Victorian bush fires destroyed hundreds of homes and killed over 200 people, decimating entire towns, wiping out huge numbers of stock and wild life. Video coverage showed tornadoes of fire moving
faster than a man could run tearing up a hill; gale winds blowing embers well ahead of the fire front forcing people to flee their houses and eucalyptus trees exploding as their oil ignited.
New Zealand has not been subjected to the same extremes, largely because of its geography and maritime climate where the continental heat extremes are absent. The summers however, in Otago and Canterbury, Hawkes Bay and Marlborough can be very hot with temperatures occasionally exceeding 40 degrees, but usually stopping in the mid-30 degree Celsius range. The drying effect of the northwesterly wind, known elsewhere around the world as the Fohn wind or the Chinook wind can quickly dry out the ground and sustained days of the westerly airstream crossing the Southern Alps, whilst dropping rain on the West Coast can push the fire risk to extreme quite quickly.
New Zealanders are undoubtedly horrified by the fire conditions that can arise and the danger posed, but until they have to fight an out of control bush fire themselves, it is a different story. The summer period often sees, mainly from lightning strikes or burn offs ignoring conditions and common sense, scrub fires break out in New Zealand. The ones that break out in the Otago or Canterbury high country usually require helicopters and water bombing aircraft to bring them under control. Some of them can incinerate thousands of hectares easily before conditions permit a semblance of control to be gained. But occasionally the unsettling thought that someone has delibrately lit a fire to satisfy their pyromaniac fantasies has to be entertained. At this time there is no thought that the Rolleston fire was the work of fire bugs, and it could have been something really innocent like a person using welding or other equipment requiring or likely to generate sparks or a naked flame.
As bush fires do not occur very frequently here, they cannot be blamed on climate or other environmental change. However that is not to say that a drier, more arid environment would not be conducive to bush fires. Nor is it to say that heat extremes could not create on a lesser scale, the sorts of conditions that occurred in Australia on Tuesday, and which continue to threaten vast swathes of the country. It would be useful for New Zealand meteorology if geographers were to study models of air masses over New Zealand specifically to look for possible indicators of extreme heat or heatwaves in anticipation of possible fire issues as a natural hazard in the future.
And as I wind up this article, it has come to my attention another fire has started near West Melton.
Take Care,

Chinese officials are taking measures to prevent the spread of H7N9, a deadly strain of bird flu that has already killed 22 people this year.
Three members of the same Chinese family contracted H7N9 in Hangzhou, the capital of the eastern province of Zhejiang, the worst-affected by the current spike in cases.
Local authorities are set to close live poultry markets in major cities, according to reports in official media.
Live poultry trading will be halted in cities in coastal Zhejiang province from February 15, and neighbouring Shanghai will stop trading for three months beginning on Friday.
So far this year, China has confirmed 110 human H7N9 cases, including 22 deaths, according to an AFP news agency's tally of reports by local authorities.
By comparison there were 144 infections and 46 deaths in all of 2013, according to official figures.
Zhejiang alone has seen 53 cases this year, almost half the national total, and 12 deaths.
On Tuesday, Hong Kong's only wholesale poultry market began culling 20,000 chickens and suspended imports of fresh poultry from mainland China for three weeks after the discovery of the H7N9 bird flu virus in a batch of live chickens from the southern province of Guangdong.
The government order took effect on Tuesday, two days before the start of the Chinese New Year, when poultry sellers generally anticipate a surge in sales.
Easily transmitted
China's human H7N9 outbreak began in February 2013 and sparked fears the virus could mutate to become easily transmissible between people, potentially triggering a pandemic.
Both Chinese authorities and the World Health Organisation (WHO) have said there has been no evidence so far of sustained human-to-human transmission.
But limited spread, such as between relatives in close contact, is possible, and there have been previous such family clusters.
The WHO said on Wednesday that the spike in cases this year was not surprising due to seasonal factors, rather than a virus mutation.
"Today there is no evidence that the characteristics of the virus have changed in a way that would explain an increase in cases and change in case fatality," WHO Representative in China Bernhard Schwartländer told the AFP news agency.

Canada Beef Inc. Encouraged By Chinese Decision To List Additional Facilities
TORONTO, Jan. 11, 2013 /CNW/ - Canada Beef Inc. is very pleased that the Chinese government has finally agreed to provide certification to an additional four Canadian processing plants for export to that country. This announcement has come after continued efforts by the Canadian Government and Ministerial officials to expand commercial access to that market. Chinese market access is one of a number of key trade agreements achieved through the leadership of the federal Market Access Secretariat.
"From a Canadian beef brand, marketing and promotions perspective, we are pleased an increased number of exporters will now be eligible to ship to this promising and valued market," says Rob Meijer, President Canada Beef Inc. "Our reputation as a reliable supplier of high quality, premium grain fed beef is at the core of our Canadian beef brand promise to customers around the world. Being able to match demand with supply from a larger complement of federal abattoirs is one of the primary means to ensure Canada will be competitive internationally."
The Chinese market is highly valued to the Canadian beef and veal industry. Canada Beef Inc. has determined the market to potentially be worth upwards of $110 million under full market access. CBI is committed to working with producers, packers, and Canadian trade commissioners abroad to increase awareness of the Canadian beef brand, optimize the value for Canadian beef products, and continue to build strong relationships in China to ultimately increase demand for Canadian beef.
Canada Beef Inc. is the cattle producer-funded and run organization responsible for domestic and international beef and veal market development. It has offices in Canada, Mexico, Japan, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan and South Korea.SOURCE Canada Beef Inc.

NEW DELHI — An Ayurvedic vacation may not be the first thing that comes to mind when making your summer or winter travel plans, but travel to India for a week of Ayurvedic wellness living may be just what the doctor ordered.
Travel to India is spectacular enough with tours through India's ancient cultures born out in wild cave carvings, intricate textile arts, glittering jewels and seductive repasts.
Mix that with a healthful yoga or ayurvedic retreat in the foothills of the Himalayas and you have a pivotal vacation that can literally change your life.
Ananda in the Himalayas is a good place to start for anchoring a trip to India with a powerful immersion in self, health and the beauty of spirit. Ananda may be considered civilization's antidote for stress (the American Psychological Association notes that 88% of women and 78% of men report the toll stress takes in their daily lives on their health and well being). But it does not stop there – weight loss, tune-ups, yoga retreats and detoxification are only a few of the reasons American travelers come this way.
Travel to India can easily be arranged through any number of well known tour companies. Abercrombie & Kent, Cox & Kings, Sita World Travel, among many others, offer customized itineraries for the worldly traveler. But a trip to Ananda in the Himalayas is more personal and will not be a stop listed in the brochure. A few days, a week or longer at Ananda is a more adventurous journey that requires a commitment to slowing down, getting quiet, eating well, sleeping well, exercising body and mind, and getting pampered – a lot. As a trip in itself or the perfect punctuation to a larger tour of India, time spent at Ananda in the Himalayas is perhaps beyond time.
Getting to Ananda in the Himalayas
This is an easy journey: four hours by train from New Delhi to Haridwar (followed by an hour's drive to Ananda – pick-ups arranged through the resort in advance). By Air, find frequent flights from New Delhi and Mumbai to Jolly Grant Airport, Dehradun, where car transfers to Ananda are met. Speeding it up are helicopters that fly the short scenic journey from New Delhi to land at Ananda's own private helipad. Those arrangements can be made through Ananda as well.
Fit for a Raj
Once there, find a palace, literally a Raj's lair (much of the site was the official summer palace for state dignitaries over the past century). Today those dignitaries come in the form of celebrity power: Oprah Winfrey, Jerry Hall, Bill Gates and Melinda Gates, Kate Winslet, Frederick Forsyth, Deepak Chopra, Uma Thurman and Jeremy Piven are among the pilgrims who have visited Ananda for wellness tune-ups. Nearby, the mountain village of Rishikesh earned eminence as the epicenter of meditation when the Beatles studied the practice there in the 1960s.
Some 70 rooms and suites spread about Ananda's 100 acres of gardens (bedecked with roaming peacocks and monkeys, of course). To each room a wide balcony overlooking the grounds and ample enough to enjoy private patio meals. Otherwise, meals are offered in the restaurant, the tea lounge or by the pool, all fashioned according to each guest's personal body type and the laws of ayurveda. With ayurveda everything is made out of the five elements of air, space, fire, water and earth. And this includes our bodies. The three body types are a combination of these: Vata constitutes air and space; Pitta is made up of fire and water; and Kapha is water and earth. Food, too, follows these principles toward a result in better health, lighter weight, balance and inner harmony.
Ayurvedic Wisdom
Staying at Ananda necessarily means booking a meaningful package. No one comes all this way just to stay for a night. Ananda in the Himalayas is an experience of wellness, not a hotel. But it is possible to stay as little as three nights and get a full throttle sense of just what this place can do.
Take the Himalayan Bliss package, for instance. The three nights include room, meals (breakfast & dinner), and spa experiences in what could be considered an introduction to an intensive Ananda retreat. A guest will get a Wild Rose Salt Scrub, a Swedish massage, a Himalayan Honey & Rose Facial, and a yoga session in a room package rate that starts at $520 per night.
Ananda runs Couples Connect spa programs, weight management intensives, Yoga Detox programs, Ayurvedic Rejuvenation programs, stress management and active adventure packages in flexible five-day to three-week bundles that can serve as a purposeful vacation destination plan or a perfect add-on.
All around Ananda is India, in full splendor. Yoga classes happen outside in the garden amid period fountains and gazebos. Nearby, there are mountain hiking trails, white water river adventures, ancient villages and markets, and the sacred River Ganges, which can be viewed from your guestroom.
India is not for everyone. Its crowded and dusty city streets are a vexation in the best of times. But the culture of this region, older and richer than the Bible, presents a perspective worth understanding and integrating. Wisdom comes in myriad ways and sometimes with a pampering and purifying week amid rolling hills near the roof of the world.

I've heard the stories about the dreaded plateau, but I don't know what the heck is going on. Could this be from muscle gain, or am I really stuck here for ever.
I work out 3-5 times a week, doing 30 min. cardio, then hitting the weights for 30-45 minutes. My stomach does seem to have gotten smaller, but there is no way that I've packed on that much muscle to offset the weight loss is it?
My next step is to try some fat burning supps, in fact I just orderd some lipo 6, to give it a shot.
Any other suggestions?
