You can do something the Hubble telescope can't: Observe Mercury. And February is the best time this year to do it.
The first planet will make its best appearance of 2013 about 30 minutes after sunset between Feb. 12 and 20 as it positions itself at least 10 degrees-extend your arm and make a fist-above the horizon in the west-southwest. It may be tough to view since we don't live on a prairie and trees obstruct most of the horizons in our backyards.
Mercury and Venus are the only two planets between Earth and the sun. Because of this vantage point, Mercury appears to have phases like the moon-first quarter, last quarter and half-illuminated.
Since its orbit hugs the sun so tightly, Mercury is only visible from Earth during morning or evening twilight, always rising and setting with the sun. Hubble as a rule won't observe it because of its proximity to the sun. Training its powerful telescope on Mercury (or Venus, for that matter) would likely damage Hubble's instruments.
Mercury will be in retrograde from Feb. 8 into April, meaning it will appear to move backward in the sky, but this is an optical illusion caused by the difference in orbital speeds of the two planets. Mercury periodically reaches a stage in its orbit around the sun where, from our perspective on Earth, it appears to slow down to the point where it stands still, and then appears to move backward.
Mercury will be less than 1 degree from Mars on Feb. 8. The sky won't be dark enough to spot the pair until they're just setting in the west.
Since the new moon is on Feb. 10, just after sunset on Feb. 11, a very thin crescent moon will be setting right behind the sun and floating above Mercury and Mars. After the weekend of Feb. 16 and 17, Mercury begins to slide back toward the horizon and gets lost in the sun's glare, ending our Earthly observing opportunities for now.
Feb. 7 - Mercury and Mars form a pleasing but tight planetary conjunction. Mars will be two-thirds of a degree to the upper left of much brighter Mercury. Binoculars or a telescope are recommended because they will be very low in the west-southwest at evening twilight.
Feb. 10 - New moon.
Feb. 25 - Full moon. This full moon was known by early Native American tribes as the Full Snow Moon because the heaviest snows usually fell during this time of the year. Since hunting is difficult in late February, this moon has also been called the Full Hunger Moon.

In their phone conversation, the former Catholic school girl discussed her upcoming video, which was co-directed by Gaga with Canadian choreographer Laurieann Gibson and will premiere on American Idol next week:
How will [the pop culture as religion] metaphor play out in the music video?
Well the video, in essence, suggests that [pauses] forgiveness and betrayal are hand in hand and that… how do I say this? The video puts destiny above all things and postures that the mistakes in your life are in fact not mistakes at all, they are just part of your overarching potential and your destiny.
What's the concept?
Well, I want to allow the video to speak for itself but I will say that the theme of the video and the way that I wanted to aesthetically portray the story was as a motorcycle Fellini movie where the apostles are revolutionaries in a modern-day Jerusalem. And I play Mary Magdalene leading them into the town where we meet Jesus and I will leave the rest for you to see. But it's meant more to celebrate faith than it is to challenge it.
You talked about "Judas" being about forgiveness. Can you forgive the person who leaked it a week early?
Yeah! You know, I don't care. It's OK. At the end of the day the song was finished and it was ready to go so it's always difficult on the promotional end because we have to hurry up and get everything ready to go but we were prepared. I'd already shot the video and it went exactly as I'd wanted it to and it looks really beautiful and I'm just excited the fans got to hear the music. I don't obsess about things like that.
Motorcycles, eh? Guess the Born This Way cover art makes a bit more sense now.

Spore Review
This review originally appeared in E194, November 2008.
This review originally appeared in E194, November 2008.
This review originally appeared in E190, July 2008. For much of an opening act which is arguably its best, Metal Gear Solid 4 is less a sneaking mission than a cowering mission. Alone on a new-age battlefield, made to take orders from a man he barely knows – himself – Solid Snake is scrabbling for a bearing, doing the best he can to keep his body upright, his mind intact. Trampled by athletic mechs, chased by nihilistic soldiers, and forced to ally himself with faceless militias, he is outnumbered and outgunned, but above all outmoded.
This review originally appeared in E189, June 2008. As you drive around Liberty City, flipping between radio stations, absorbing the inanity of their commercial messages and the bilious hypocrisy of their small-minded politics, you realize that the America of GTA IV is a country coming down from its trip. The humor – some crass, some clever – errs towards the absurd, as the series has always done, but never before has it been so cutting, so impassioned or so relevant.
This review originally appeared in E185, February 2008.
This review originally appeared in E184, January 2008. After the support act comes the headliner. Rock Band's arrival has been trumpeted with huge hype, both from those looking to take the Guitar Hero experience to a new level, and from those who see the potential of an evolution for videogames: a multimedia project that can cement a new mainstream method of interacting with music, and of course be the harbinger for many new revenue streams in a market caught somewhat on the hop by digital delivery.
This review originally appeared in E183, Christmas 2007. So what, exactly, is a mass effect? Is it something to do with the outcome of elaborate physics experiments? Is it a time and space altering technology created by ancient aliens? (Apparently, it is.) Or is it what happens when BioWare, famed for Baldur's Gate and Knights Of The Old Republic, decides to make its own version of Star Wars?
This review originally appeared in E183, Christmas 2007. Only Crytek, the studio propelled to the forefront of PC gaming by just one FPS, could make such a high profile game feel like such an unknown. The more you're told of Crysis, the less you know for sure. The more features and components are announced, the more you wonder how anyone could wrestle with such a skulking beast.
This review originally appeared in E183, Christmas 2007. With his stalking gait and effortless run, his swift killing strike, his fearless parkour skills, Assassin's Creed's star, Altaïr, is a triumph of animation in videogames. Never before has a player character been depicted with such clarity: the responsiveness with which he turns during a run; the way he palms off a wall to recover from a shove – control is never impeded and his physical connection with his environment is continually reinforced.
This review originally appeared in E183, Christmas 2007. If you expect Uncharted: Drake's Fortune to begin with a cutscene, you'd be right. If you expect to negotiate beautiful environments and fight mercenaries, shoot explosive barrels and scale ruins, you'd be right. In fact, you'd be right with almost any informed prediction about Uncharted's content. But the fact that you're right doesn't begin to explain why, despite everything about it being a little predictable, Uncharted manages to get it right.
This review originally appeared in E183, Christmas 2007. Super Mario Galaxy is impossible. Don't get the wrong idea – it's not a particularly difficult game, although it does have its moments. What we mean is, it obeys no rules, contradicts everything you know, and has no right to exist.

Dostana 2 is an upcoming Bollywood comedy film Directed by Tarun Mansukhani. It is the sequel to the 2008 film Dostana which was a super hit. Arjun Rampal will be cast as a new addition into the series.Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham will reprise their roles from the previous movie. Reportedly Ritesh Deshmukh, Shreyas Talpade, and Dino Morea have also been signed for the film. The setting of the sequel is rumored to be relocated from Miami to London. It was also rumored that production on the film reportedly began in October 2011. The second installment will reportedly release in mid-2015.[1][2]
On February 16, 2013, Karan Johar confirmed that he is still on the look-out for the lead actress. But then he confirmed Katrina Kaif. When it comes to the lead male roles, John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan have been asked to work their dates out post September. Even though both the director and producer i.e. Karan Johar and Tarun Mansukhani are not revealing any details, Abhishek Bachchan went on to talk about the film and confirmed that the film is going on floors this year. "Tarun, Karan, John and I had decided last year that this is the script we want to go ahead with."
The script reportedly went through a lot of detailing and working before being finalized. "This is not about who is happy or unhappy with the script. Dostana was a big hit, and so it is obvious that the filmmakers want to be sure about every detail of its sequel. The expectations from Dostana 2 are sky high, and nobody wants to take a chance with it. We want it to be better than Dostana."[3]

Hosting multiple websites
I am running a website from my home server using Apache and Suse;I want to know how I can run a 2nd site from my existing server.
I don't know if this is possible. Your router can forward requests on port 80 to your Apache server, but I don't know if it also forwards the requested URLs...
I'd simply try it.
If you use a virtual host setup, you can run hundreds of different sites on the machine

Hdw do i got about stacking and shaping rice krispies into lipstick?
post #1 of 4
9/17/13 at 9:57am
Thread Starter
After you measure your krispies crush them. This will make your surface smoother when you sculpt..Then make according to package directions, but a lot of people leave the butter out. Grease your hands and mold it into the shape of lipstick. Coat with melted candy molds or modeling chocolate to make it smooth...

The Network
Heres a truncated version of the science upon which Wolf relies:
- Women have a far more complicated pelvic neural network than men. Men's are more like "a grid," she writes (I knew it), concentrated around the penis, while a woman's, as she puts it fetchingly over lunch, "is like a lace." Branches terminate, in endless variations and bunchings depending on the woman, at the clitoris, the vagina, the perineum, andthe latest findingthe mouth of the cervix. These potential pleasure zones are closer to the surface at different points for different people; hence, the individualized nature of the female orgasm.
- The neural networks communicate constantly with the brain via the autonomic nervous system, which controls unconscious mechanisms such as digestion, lubrication, and the flow of blood to the skin that causes blushing and vaginal pulsing. Recent experiments suggest that distinct areas of the brain, which correlate with distinct emotional states, are activated depending on which part of the pelvic networkthe vagina, clitoris, etc.is stimulated.
- Chemicals that make us feel energized, calm, focused, loving, and loved (primarily oxytocin and dopamine) flood the brain during orgasm. The more engaged the autonomic nervous system during sex, the larger the deluge. When the system is completely "on" for a time, the chemicals induce a trance state. You become "biochemically a wild woman or a maenad," Wolf writes.
- Stress and its hormones adrenaline and cortisol keep the nervous system from sending signals that facilitate physical pleasure and altered consciousness. Females, or at least female rats, are less likely to mate when under strain than males. Verbal attacks alone, especially derogatory terms for vagina, can cause such stress, she posits.
The Network Failure
Here's an extremely truncated version of Wolfs conclusions about the continuity between the female psyche and sex organs:
- American women are suffering from an epidemic of sexual dissatisfaction (she cites a common statistic that one in three women report low sexual desire); American men are shell-shocked by porn. They can begin to repair the damage by identifying us and our genitalia with the word goddess. Women who are brought to "high orgasm" are happier, more ambitious, and empowered.
- Women are more sexually dependent on men than the reverse because during orgasm greater amounts of dopamine flood the female braina pleasure chemical related to confidence (and addictive desperation when the hormones level plunges).
- Our self-esteem is altered neurologically when our culture loses touch with the magic of the vagina. A woman in India fifteen hundred years ago, when "the vagina was portrayed as the most sacred spot in the most sacred temple in a sacred universe," would have a proud brain, compared with the shame-shaped synapses of a European during the witch hunts of the medieval times, when the vagina was known as "the devils playground."
Goddess Complex
"Some people might have a problem with the book," Wolf says.
"Because of your frequent use of the word goddess?" I ask.
"Because of its essentialism," she says, referencing a concept verboten to certain feminist strongholds and liberal arts academics steeped in post-structuralist theory and identity politics. That tribe holds to the notion that gender is amorphous, plastic, and largely crafted by and through the culture.
I've always wiggled out of the question of essentialism by calling myself a relative essentialist (forgive my oxymoronic humor). My own brand of feminism is a reverse sexism; I carry around a vague, floaty sense that men need to improve, and that women are fundamentally just sort of the better sex. Although Wolf gives lip service to men being wonderful in their own (limited) ways, her underlying view is in line with my own, namely, that women have more interesting bodies than their male counterparts, which give them closer ties to both nature and God (in whatever form the latter might take). So why does this book sound such a siren song for meas scary as it is alluring? Why do I chafe, even as I furtively nod my head?
I'm in the odd position of being an inadvertent case study for some of Wolfs claims. She finds confirmation of her discoveries about female anatomy in Tantra, the medieval Indian philosophy known for its erotic teachings. Wolf cites ancient Asian texts that articulate the assiduous devotion our better halves once gave to the vaginanaming different internal locations (a fore- shadowing of the elusive G-spot) and delineating techniques for when to enter, when to be still, how to moveall with the aim of bringing women to a climax that releases the largest dose of life-giving fluid, which men believed would amp up their own life-force quotient.
While I havent joined any of the tantric communities Wolf investigates (couples workshops teach men to give hour-and-a-half long sacred spot massages), I practice a form of yoga, kundalini, that incorporates elements of tantra but considers the sexual aspect only one part of a greater goal of focusing the mind to live in God. (Its the one Elizabeth Gilbert tries in Eat, Pray, Love.)

One of the topics of great interest during the Nerd Girls panel at Lotusphere 2011 was that of appearance. How important is grooming? What about first impressions?
People shared the usual advice: Dress appropriately. Be yourself. Neatness counts.
Like the way I skip fluffy guest posts full of cliches, I try to avoid sharing the same thoughts you'll find everywhere else. So I found myself thinking about one of the points raised, which you don't encounter that often.
One of the participants had observed that "booth babes" at a tech convention can drive people away. My take-away from that is that *you should make sure that what you communicate with your appearance supports what you want to communicate.* Too much attention to appearance can conflict with your goals. You can dress to blend in or you can dress to stand out. Suits help you build rapport with people who are more comfortable with suits. Jeans and a geek T-shirt help you build more rapport with people who are more comfortable in jeans and T-shirts.
Tweaking convention can support your goals, too. I've turned up at technical get-togethers in brightly-coloured ethnic clothing to make several points along the way: a. it's okay to bring personal interests into the tech world, b. it's okay to be a girl, c. there are people here from different cultures, and d. it's good to have fun. That this made me easier to spot in a crowd was an excellent bonus, and it worked really well.
Know what you want to say, and make sure your appearance supports it. Re-think what you want to say, too. For example, if the path towards becoming an executive requires expensive suits and other status symbols, it might not be for a person who disagrees with dry-cleaning, at least until people create better washable suits. (Or you can pick a different uniform: black mock turtlenecks and jeans totally works for Steve Jobs.)
I dress for minimal thought during most days, for either blending in or standing out during get-togethers, and for practicality when travelling. Slacks, blouse, sweater/blazer, and scarf give me a good uniform for the workweek. If I'm speaking at a conference, I might dig out my cream suit. If I'm attending a crowded event, I might wear a red top or bring a hat. If I'm travelling, I pack my Tilley's Endurables businesswear: hand-washable slacks, blazers, and blouses that will dry overnight in a pinch. I wear flat shoes for comfort and boots for warmth. These routines mean that I need to spend very little time thinking about what to wear.
There's a limit to how much time, money, and energy I want to spend on appearance. I'm not going to spend on make-up, cosmetic surgery, or designer items. I suppose going to a dermatologist or having frequent facials could help my face clear up, but it's no big deal. I won't experiment with body ink, piercings, or hair colour. The gradual onset of gray hair won't be dyed away, and the wrinkles will be welcomed. (I do invest energy into making sure I get the kind of wrinkles I want: more smile lines than frowns! =) ) This is partly because I have other priorities, and partly because I want to help build a society where these things matter less, where we don't shame people for appearance or age or lifestyle choice.
Thinking about this further, I realized that I'm not really interested in the conventional approach to thinking about appearance. This topic usually focuses on: "How can I get other people to think better of me? How can I increase my chances for a raise or a promotion? How can I project more status and confidence?"
For that part, my questions are more along the lines of "How can I stay true to my values? Are my goals in line with those values and priorities?" And there's another, much more interesting question for me: *"How can I correct my biases?"*
Our biases around attractiveness reduce the quality of our decisions. People get dinged for being too fat, being too old, being too plain, and even being too attractive. Women are more harshly judged than men, and are the target of much body-policing from advertising, media, coworkers, friends, and even themselves.
I've received plenty of privileges. I'm young, female, enthusiastic, and easy to get along with, and that has almost certainly helped me do what I do. I have plenty of mentors while other people (perhaps less cheerful, perhaps less "cute") It sometimes works to my disadvantage. There are areas of consulting that I probably won't focus on until I have more gravitas, if ever.
I also carry biases. There's that preference for people who are cheerful; people with symmetric, angular features; people who are trim; people who carry themselves with confidence. I work against these preferences, pull my attention away from that so that I can focus on other factors, try to separate seeing from thinking. (I indulge this bias with my husband, though, whom I think is very handsome, and with whom I have the license to look at as much as I'd like; but I always make it clear that I love him for much greater reasons.)
Likewise, there's dealing with that reactive judging of people who frown a lot, people with weaker postures, people who are overweight, people who dress inappropriately… I work to separate negative perceptions and reality so that I can make better decisions. There's ableism, sexism, ageism, racism, and a million unnamed stories we tell ourselves without examining them closely.
You can eliminate the visual aspect through teleconferences, but that doesn't solve the problem. We joke about everything sounding smarter when said in a British accent, but accent stereotypes do influence judgment. I'm glad that accents are getting more mixed up now, what with people mixing cultures and people getting cross-trained in different accents. It helps challenge that bias. Then there's confidence and pitch and vocabulary and fluency…
Paying attention to and adjusting for all these biases is partly why I like the move towards virtual connections, particularly during the beginning. If I can't see or hear people, I can more easily focus on what they say. However, the Internet replaces one set of biases with another. Instead of being influenced by appearance, I'm biased by how articulate someone is – and that's tangled up in class and education and culture and the availability of leisure time and the ability of people to access this technology.
It isn't easy to separate all these factors, and I may never be able to do it completely. There's a bit of shame in it too, when I realize how many of society's messages I've internalized into these quick impressions of other people.
I want to make better decisions. I want to be able to see the best in people, unclouded by the preconceptions I carry. I might never be able to eliminate my biases, but I can recognize them and slow down when they might be in play. If I slow down and understand, for example, how my first impressions colour my decisions, then I can clarify my reasons and reject invalid ones.
You'll find plenty of books about how to groom yourself for particular kinds of success. Wouldn't it be interesting to build a society where this matters less?

I walked around 16k steps a day (up from my 12k goal; there was one day I walked over 20k steps). My shoes weren't the best for walking. They're flat, but they didn't have the padding of tennis shoes or hiking boots. The cushioning insoles helped, though. No blisters. Still looking for office-ready flat shoes with good support.

"The Samsung 4G LTE smartphone is an ideal option for those who look to Samsung Mobile for sleek and innovative devices combined with blazing fast speeds of Android 2.2 on the nation's most advanced 4G network," said Marni Walden, vice president and chief marketing officer for Verizon Wireless. "This powerful combination enables our customers to connect face to face with family and friends, while still enjoying premium multimedia and social networking features backed by the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network."
The 4G LTE smartphone has access to Samsung's Media Hub content service available on the 4G LTE network, which offers a robust collection of premium movies and TV episodes from some of the biggest entertainment companies for purchase and rental. Users can stay connected with Samsung's Social Hub, built around messaging, contacts and calendar sync, which allows users to send and receive information, whether it is e-mail, social network updates or text messages.
The Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network, launched in December 2010, is the fastest, most advanced 4G network in the United States, providing speeds up to 10 times faster than Verizon Wireless' 3G network. Verizon Wireless' 4G LTE Mobile Broadband network currently reaches one-third of all Americans, with plans to expand the network to the company's entire 3G coverage area over the next three years.
The Samsung 4G LTE smartphone will be on display at CES 2011 in Verizon Wireless' booth (#35216 in the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center) and in the Samsung booth (#12006 in the Central Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center). For more information about Verizon Wireless' 4G LTE network, visit www.verizonwireless.com/lte. For more information about Verizon Wireless at CES, please visit www.verizonwireless.com/ces or follow the company on Twitter at http://twitter.com/verizonwireless. For more information about the Samsung 4G LTE smartphone, visit www.samsung.com.
To tell you the truth as far as Verizon is concerned I think I am looking at the Droid Bionic, and or anything with a Tegra2 dual processor. At my current status Sprint seems to be doing the best job of wooing me back, as I have been given conformation on a certain in home signal device if I come back. I also like the new mega phone hitting At&t who is now my ISP as well as TV provider on Uverse fiber to home. I will basically get a discount with Sprint or At&t in various ways if I come to them, with Verizon I just have to pay more money. I will ad that if my home centric connection problems are fixed by Sprints efforts there service at least for me in mine really seem to be the most economical as well as full feature.
The one thing which also intrigues me is which of these mega smart phones will be ported to Metro PCS because they also offer me service with all functionality available, and at $20 less than Sprint does. There 4G LTE is also supposedly coming to if not already available unofficially right now.

By the way, there are several public domain LT cartoons. There were also WB cartoons made for the military and government. (Those types of films can't be copyrighted.) People can upload those online to their hearts desire and even make money off of them, and WB won't be able to do a thing. (Here is a list of WB cartoons in the public domain if interested: http://looney.goldenagecartoons.com/DVDvideo/PD/ .)
Oh no? We had a discussion a while back that Warners was doing just that. Here's my part of the theory. Yes, the moral majority are copyrighted (and nobody is really allowed to upload these cartoons, but we're glad they do anyways). HOWEVER, with the DVD sales the way they are, Warners is getting stronger with taking these down off of Youtube (probably more than ever before). And if they are taking public domain cartoons off, I guess they don't want to see their characters on Youtube unless it's their own uploads. What Warners doesn't know is that a good majority of these cartoons are still not yet available on DVD. Oh well.
why don't you create a petition for WB to create a YouTube channel or other online website dedicated to uploading old LT shorts. (That is actually not a bad idea.)
No I'm not arguing against you about copyrights because everything you said were facts. My point here though is why all of the sudden taking this stuff down now and not earlier? I have said this before, I'll say it again: if you don't put something out officially for access (even outside DVD and blu-ray cause let's face it: the medium is dying there), then you opened up a whole new world for bootleggers and independents plus up-loaders on Youtube and people downloading them off of Youtube then putting them on DVD, they get the money (or no money if Youtube) and the major studios get NOTHING out of it. That is a loss to them. Now I'm talking more specifically, cartoons like the Censored 11, Song of the South, Terrytoons, and The Alvin Show.I do want to talk about changes in copyright laws that should change, but I'm not gonna go there now. And again, texwolf, no disrespect to you whatsoever because again, everything argued are facts and yes that will (hopefully) encourage people to buy Looney Tunes DVDs (with the best quality you can get). I do believe if you are die hard enough, that person will find a way if illegally to access whatever they want. It's never going to end.
Not a bad idea. I actually imagined that since, they should make another YouTube channel. Not only it should feature classic Looney Tunes, but also Tom & Jerry, and the classic Hanna-Barbera cartoons all uncut. And would include non-remastered cartoons and episodes that are not on DVD and/or Blu Ray in high quality (they should included the post-1935/pre-1943 black & white Looney Tunes all left in black & white). Oh and how about a request box for people to request more cartoons they want to see?Though the classic Looney Tunes are available to watch on the Kids WB website, they are unfortunately time-compressed which ticked me off!

Oprah Takes Notice: Men's Organizations "Step Up" To Face Our National Crisis
CHICAGO, Jan. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --There are important conversations about men, masculinity, and fatherhood happening, and the nation's media and political leaders are taking notice. On January 17 th, 2013, Oprah's Lifeclass will be hosting Jeffery M. Leving, of the Law Offices of Jeffery M. Leving, Ltd., as well as the ManKind Project in a special show on fatherless sons.
In 2012, The New York Times reported that a staggering 62 percent of young mothers have never been married, and one in every three children in the United States live without their fathers.
The incredible pain fatherlessness causes reveals itself in many forms: children who grow up without their fathers are more likely to drop out of school, engage in violent and criminal behavior, and become addicted to drugs and alcohol.
Leading the way to encourage fathers and men of all stripes to "step up" and embrace their important role in society is attorney Jeffery Leving, founder of the Fatherhood Educational Institute and Glenn Barker, Director of the ManKind Project.Oprah Winfrey invited Leving and Barker to be a part of Oprah's Lifeclass after co-host and spiritual teacher Iyanla VanZant had this moving encounter with a fatherless son: Iyanla VanZant helps a fatherless son heal. The ManKind Project is a global network of men's groups that offers mentorship programs to men at all stages of life and from all backgrounds. The program empowers men to live lives of emotional authenticity, personal responsibility, leadership, and service in the context of a supportive community. The Project promotes healthy masculinity for mature and modern men in rapidly evolving 21 st century life. The Fatherhood Educational Institute and The ManKind Project would like to invite your news organization to cover this vitally important subject. In a time when gun violence, sexual violence, and economic disenfranchisement are on people's minds like never before, and when so many children are struggling to find their way in a changing world without the insight and guidance of mature, caring men, America needs good men. Let's give men and fathers the support and inspiration to be the role models, nurturers and heroes they have the potential to be.

Would You Let An App Monitor Your Mental Health?
Fitness and health tracking apps and devices are so trendy that fashion designers are set to make a killing on sparkly bracelet cases for them. We like the idea of gadgets telling us when we haven't exercised enough, or when we need to sleep more. But what about an app to track mental health?

African Marigold
|Scientific classification
About 56, including:
Adenopappus Benth.
|Tagetes erecta,
African Marigold
|Scientific classification
About 56, including:
Adenopappus Benth.
Tagetes [2] is a genus of 56 species [3] of annual and perennial, mostly herbaceous plants in the sunflower family (Asteraceae or Compositae). The genus is native to North and South America, but some species have become naturalized around the world. One species, T. minuta, is considered a noxious invasive plant in some areas.[3]
Tagetes species vary in size from 0.1 to 2.2 m tall. Most species have pinnate green leaves. Blooms naturally occur in golden, orange, yellow, and white colors, often with maroon highlights. Floral heads are typically (1-) to 4–6 cm diameter, generally with both ray florets and disc florets. In horticulture, they tend to be planted as annuals, although the perennial species are gaining popularity.
Depending on the species, Tagetes grow well in almost any sort of soil. Most horticultural selections grow best in soil with good drainage.
The name Tagetes is from the name of the Etruscan Tages.[4]
The common name in English, "marigold", is derived from "Mary's gold", a name first applied to a similar plant native to Europe, Calendula officinalis. See marigold for other plants commonly called marigold. In Nepal, it is called 'शयपत्री' that means hundred-leafed flower, referring to its many florets per head.
The most commonly cultivated varieties of Tagetes are known variously as African marigolds (usually referring to cultivars and hybrids of Tagetes erecta, although this species is not native to Africa), or French marigolds (usually referring to hybrids and cultivars of Tagetes patula, many of which were developed in France, although the species is not native to that country). The so-called signet marigolds are hybrids derived mostly from Tagetes tenuifolia.
Tagetes minuta is the source of commercial "Tagetes oil" used in industry. It is now a naturalized species in Africa, Hawaii, and Australia, and is considered an invasive species (weed) in some regions.
Depending on the species, marigold foliage has a musky, pungent scent, though some varieties have been bred to be scentless. It is said to deter some common insect pests, as well as nematodes. Tagetes species are hence often used in companion planting for tomato, eggplant, chili pepper, tobacco, and potato. Due to antibacterial thiophenes exuded by the roots, Tagetes should not be planted near any legume crop.[5] Some of the perennial species are deer-, rabbit-, rodent- and javalina or peccary-resistant.[5]
T. minuta (khakibush or huacatay), originally from South America, has been used as a source of essential oil for the perfume and industry known as tagette or "marigold oil", and as a flavourant in the food and tobacco industries. It is commonly cultivated in South Africa, where the species is also a useful pioneer plant in the reclamation of disturbed land.
The florets of Tagetes erecta are rich in the orange-yellow carotenoid lutein and are used as a food colour (INS-number E161b) in the European Union for foods such as pasta, vegetable oil, margarine, mayonnaise, salad dressing, baked goods, confectionery, dairy products, ice cream, yogurt, citrus juice and mustard. In the United States, however, the powders and extracts are only approved as colorants in poultry feed.
Marigolds are recorded as a food plant for some Lepidoptera caterpillars including the dot moth, and a nectar source for other butterflies. They are often part of butterfly gardening plantings. In the wild, many species are pollinated by beetles.[5]
The species Tagetes lucida, known as pericón, is used to prepare a sweetish, anise-flavored medicinal tea in Mexico. It is also used as a culinary herb in many warm climates, as a substitute for tarragon, and offered in the nursery as "Texas tarragon" or "Mexican mint marigold".
Tagetes minuta, native to southern South America, is a tall, upright marigold plant with small flowers used as a culinary herb in Peru, Ecuador, and parts of Chile and Bolivia, where it is called by the Incan term huacatay. The paste is used to make the popular potato dish called ocopa. Having both "green" and "yellow/orange" notes, the taste and odor of fresh T. minuta is like a mixture of sweet basil, tarragon, mint and citrus. It is also used as a medicinal tea in some areas.[6]
The marigold is very significant in Nepalese culture, where marigold garlands are used almost in every household, especially during the Tihar festival. It is always sold in the markets for daily worships and rituals.
The marigold was regarded as the flower of the dead in pre-Hispanic Mexico, parallel to the lily in Europe, and is still widely used in the Day of the Dead celebrations. The marigold is also widely cultivated in India and Thailand, particularly the species T. erecta, T. patula, and T. tenuifolia. Vast quantities of marigolds are used in garlands and decoration for weddings, festivals, and religious events. Marigold cultivation is extensively seen in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Karnataka, and Uttar Pradesh[7]
In Ukraine, chornobryvtsi (T. erecta, T. patula, and the signet marigold, T. tenuifolia) are regarded as one of the national symbols, and are often mentioned in songs, poems, and tales.

Values, vision for Singapore's future get airing at dialogue
Top concern on population woes: Will I feel like a stranger in S'pore?
Published on Oct 10, 2012 6:00 AM
When some 220 people were asked what were their biggest concerns on Singapore's population challenges, most of them were not too bothered about the nuts and bolts of pragmatic policy.
Instead, many wanted to know the answer to the question: "Will I feel like a stranger in Singapore?"
It was the top concern raised in one of two polls conducted during a dialogue on population issues last night. When presented with a list of six concerns by Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean, almost a quarter of the participants voted for this question.
Indeed, it reflected the tenor of much of last night's discussion, with participants homing in on the values and visions of Singapore's future they wanted to see.

However, I need some half-way decent DTP software to make it look nice. It could do with being free too ;)

Any suggestions?

Kevin Ding column: New Lakers coach Mike Brown and his legendary predecessor Phil Jackson have had just one conversation in their lives, but that one said a lot about their disparate positions at the top of their field. For more news, check out the Lakers Blog.
The one and only time in their lives that Mike Brown talked to Phil Jackson, the Zen Master concerto was building toward its final crescendo.
Brown had a nice little beat of his own going in Cleveland at the time: The Cavaliers were 40-11 to the Lakers' 42-10, which meant Brown and Jackson would coach against each other in the 2009 All-Star Game.
Flashing forward, we know Jackson's Lakers would not be derailed thereafter, steaming on to beat the Eastern Conference's other contenders, Orlando and Boston, to win the 2009 and '10 NBA championships. And what happened in Phoenix on that February Sunday in a meaningless exhibition game – after which Brown had the briefest of conversations with Jackson, but one Brown remembers distinctly – was actually a meaningful step along the Lakers' way, too.
Brown's LeBron James-led East team jumped out to a 20-10 lead, at which point Jackson brought Phoenix's own Shaquille O'Neal off the West bench to play with Kobe Bryant for the first time since they were Lakers teammates under Jackson.
Bryant, O'Neal and the West scored the next 11 points to take the lead. Dwight Howard was the only center on the East roster, and without him out there in the third quarter, Brown had swingman Rashard Lewis guarding O'Neal – and Bryant really set O'Neal up to shine with some old Lakers magic.
Bryant had just been validated with the halftime presentation of his Olympic gold-medal ring from USA Basketball. O'Neal was well aware it would be the last of his 15 All-Star selections. The time was right for them to do the right things and play nice with each other, and whaddaya know, they wound up being named co-All-Star MVPs.
As an outsider, Brown pushed the primary storyline ahead, imagining Bryant and O'Neal having never parted and saying afterward: "No telling how many more rings they would have had on their fingers and toes."
But the on-court display after five years apart signified some give in both the headstrong big one and the hell-bent little one – and Jackson's ability to broker some peace with his two sons. Jackson mused afterward that it could be "a great life lesson for people."
"People find a way to get through situations, find harmony in their life, find cohabitation," Jackson said.
Via time capsule, we can look back and say that it was, bottom line, positive energy that Jackson, Bryant and even fellow West All-Star Pau Gasol left with that day. If even the Shaq-Kobe feud could crumble, what else could possibly stand in the Lakers' way?
Jackson won the next two NBA Finals. Brown disappointed by not even getting there to face him – and was fired for his failures.
That meant he was available and energized, however, when Jackson faltered a year later and the Lakers became the disappointments ... and the Buss family sought someone with new ideas.
Brown definitely had those. He produced pages of analysis and drew up about 20 new plays right there for Jerry Buss to see once Brown got his formal job interview.
See, in Jackson's final days, Brown had indeed dreamt of taking his job – fantasizing about all he could do with it.
"Yes," Brown said last week, nodding. "Yes, that did happen."

Wear this with the tear drop end shifted to the side and close to the neck for an elegant effect or let the long end fall down the center for a "y" look or try it as a bracelet; the lariat offers tremendous versatility. We chose colors, design elements and beads that were reminiscent of icicles and snowflakes, but the mood of the designs will change dramatically with different combinations of bead colors, shapes and textures.

Technique: You will need to be familiar with crimping and stringing small beads. You will need to know how to create a coiled loop and a loop on a head pin and an eye pin. This simple and elegant lariat necklace can be worn many different ways. There is a loop on one side to accommodate the teardrop end. By adding tiny seed beads in between the larger beads the piece has greater flexibility and the look and play of hand knotting without the time factor of actually knotting silk! Swarovski crystal will give any design the maximum reflectivity and sparkle. The multi-strand bracelet is intended to mimic three individual bracelets.
Lariat Necklace:
There are many tiny seed beads that are separating the individual beads in the design. I recommend that the larger beads be organized on a bead board prior to stringing and the seed beads be added into the design while stringing. Start by fashioning the looped end by sliding a crimp bead then 37 seed beads on to the wire end. Feed the tail back through the crimp tube, tighten up the loop and use your crimp tool to secure the tube closed. Cut off excess strand with a nipper tool.
The pattern is as follows: round pearl-seed bead-oval silver faceted-seed bead-oval silver-seed bead-faceted clear 5mm-seed bead-oval pearl-seed bead-faceted clear-seed bead-oval silver-seed bead-oval silver-cloisonné-8mm round-cloisonné-oval silver-seed bead etc. (It is unnecessary to add a seed bead on either side of the cloisonné beads, as the seed beads will slip through the bead holes.)
- Continue the pattern as described until you reach the other side and add on the round pearl and a crimp tube. Add on six seed beads-teardrop-six seed beads and slide the tail back through the crimp tube. Use the crimp tool to secure the tube closed and cut off the excess strand.
Three Strand Bracelet:
Attach the three strands to one end of your toggle clasp with crimp tubes.
Bead and finish each individual strand attaching the ends to the toggle clasp with crimp tubes.
The three patterns are as follows:
Strand One: 2 silver 4mm ovals-one opal swarovski-2 silver 4mm ovals etc.
Strand Two: 2mm A/B oval-5mm clear round-2mm oval-6mm pearl-2mm oval-blue swarovski bicone-2mm oval-5mm clear round-2mm oval-6mm pearl-2mm oval-5mm clear round etc.
Strand Three: blue lined seed bead-white seed bead-clear seed bead-2mm blue lined Czech oval-clear seed bead-white seed bead-blue lined seed bead-2mm oval-blue lined seed bead, white seed bead-clear seed bead-2mm oval etc.
Create the individual dangles on head and eye pins first. I recommend that you start with the four smallest dangles and build up from there.
Place one blue bicone bead on each of four head pins. Use Round Nose Pliers to create a loop at the top of each bead and clip off excess with Nipper Tool.
Place one Chinese cloisonné bead on one each of two head pins. Create a loop at the top of each bead using Round Nose Pliers and clip of excess with Nipper Tool. Use Chain Nose Pliers to position the top loop at a 45' angle from the bottom loop.
Place one 5mm clear round faceted bead on one each of two head pins. Repeat process from step three.
Attach the beaded head pins to one another building from the bottom up in this fashion: Two blue bicones-one cloisonné-one faceted round.
- Finally attach the top faceted round bead to the dapped silver French wires.

One of the benefits you have as a player is competition. There are many companies that now develop and create online games. Each of those companies wants to create the next best thing and therefore are continually investing in software developers who work around the clock to develop new games, new slot features and the improved graphics. Today's online pokies now include some of the best features that are available. They include many features that are designed to add to your experience such as wild symbols. Wild symbols use to be simple wild symbols that would land on a single position on the reel however now you will find wilds that expand, are stacked and can evolve to turn other nearby symbols wilds. There are scatter symbols that now also act as bonus game symbols. The bonus games take on a life of their own as they offer story lines that will take you a long in the bonus game increasing your winnings as you progress through the different stages that many offer.
One of the advantages you will get when you play online is that the casinos will give you a bonus on your first, second and, in many cases, your third deposit. Online casinos bonuses allow you to increase your deposit by as much as 400%, giving you a nice amount of money to start playing the pokies with. You will have to play your deposit and bonus a number of times before being allowed to withdraw your winnings but if you factor in the increased pokie payouts it is not at all difficult to meet the terms most bonuses apply.

Close to key places food in little restaurants lovely very cheap people are very friendly staff friendly would do anything for you
The staff was very friendly and we'll trained for all situations. Food was excellent, including breakfast. Ciao Capanelle!
total all
a small weak the aircontitioning
staff, friendliness, comfort
Clean hotel.
With no shuttle bus available hotel is actually in a poor position for rome, staff disinterested in giving info on public transport, local shop had no tickets for bus so prepare for long walk until you can find available tickets.Breakfast very poor coffee from machine dreadful.
good location good price
didnt like the quality of breakfast and at all dinner safe box in room was broken
Reception staff knowledgeable and helpful. Room clean and comfortable. Evening restaurant meals first class. Reasonable rates.
Breakfast: cooked options very limited, poorly prepared (dried egg). Travel to city centre requires both`bus and metro.
Though not in central Rome, this place was very ideal for our large group of persons. Everyone is looking forward to another great trip!
A bit more attention from the staff, would have eased out check-in.
- Big modern rooms - Helpful staff - quiet area
- AC not always working - Starting to look a little run down - Location is a little awkward especially when their infrequent shuttle isn't operating
Very big rooms, clean.
Wifi only in the lobby. Location pretty far away from the city. No shuttle bus to the metro! Employers once said there would be tomorrow one, next day nobody knew about a shuttle bus.
good hotel overall
location is too inconvenient
Free wifi
Ants in room, bedbugs, free shuttle bus is none existent, staff are rude and extremely unhelpful, toilet didn't flush, shower leaked all over bathroom, mini fridge can't go cold and contains warm water and you can't open your balcony door unless you get the handle from reception!
The service and friendliness of the hotel.
The room is very convenient.
No electric kettle readily available. Breakfast time is quite late for early riser and departing guests.
good to stay there
We had a fantastic stay, good food, comfortable room and very attentive staff.
A little out of town but not insurmountable, good public transport connections
The hotel is nice and clean. It is near to Ciampino airport.
It has not a good location. it is far from metro station. It is far very from flumicino airport, i needed to pay 50 euro to reach the hotel.
Large, comfy business - style hotel. Great free parking and an excellent, well-stocked breakfast buffet. Safe residential locality.
Coach tours seem to keep this place afloat, so evening restaurant can be chaotic - however, Rome does have some excellent restaurants!
All members of staff, dress smartly, spoke good English , and was very helpful. Loved every minute of our stay there , would highly recommend to anyone who asks
Would of been nice to make a coffee in the room
Big rooms, modern, pool, Breakfast
I was with a group and too many rooms had issues with the A/C to the point their rooms were unbearably hot on a day when it was not hot outside! Second visit to the hotel two years apart... starting to look like maintinance is been kept up
the staff were very unfriendly and it seemed like you were bothering them every time you asked a question. I,m from Ireland and in the hospitality industry here your supposed to be friendly and polite with paying customers. my parents worked in hotels in the 70,s and 80,s and they said if a lot of the staff had of behaved like that then they would have been fired.
Loved how large the rooms were and how quiet the hotel was.
Location very far from city center! Don't book if you're siteseeing. Uncomfortable beds.
Clean rooms every day, large and spacious rooms, good transportation to the Centre
Terrible food!
Clean rooms. Good WiFi signal even on 4th level.
Breakfast wasn't that varied.
Staff flexible, helpful, knowledgeable, but sometimes fell down on detailed directions. Able to assist with off menu food requests. Pool open in bar area.
Location was fair and good for the price but the promised shuttle had been terminated and the hotel got overrun by tour groups who took over the restaurant staff's attention.

First 5 lbs are off! I know it is going to slow down, but I'm happy for each little loss. It gets me that much quicker to my end result. I think I'll reward myself with some hair clips. Woohoo!
So I've been working out at the gym almost every weekday for a year. In that year, I have gained 20 lbs. I decided it was time to get serious. I know that I have to watch my eating or things will only get worse. So here I am, ready to kick it into high gear. Let's see what I can do.
