The first 2 pages (Cover + Captain Vincible) and last few pages (page 28 onwards) were sent by Prabhat to complete the comic as I only had the story. Have fun reading. The next comic and the last published Indrajal will be posted on Friday (contributed by VenKIT).

text: I had already bought this product in 2 other colours and wanted the third. Rather than drive all over looking for it I decided to purchase on line.

The other day I was bargain hunting in Jack's World (an incredible discount store with a few different locations...I was in the Herald Square store). Everything on the first floor of Jack's is 99 cents, and they have some great stuff - from food to household items. The store is a find in itself ... but enough about that. While standing in line, my eyes wandered over to the candy/gum shelf. I noticed Great Bite Mints. The cute little "shark bite" on the label and the fact that it was $1.00 for a 3 pack ... and the fact that it was in the "impulse buy" section - well, I just couldn't resist.
They come in a few different flavors, including spearmint, peppermint, and orange, which was the one I picked up. The orange flavor is sweet and fruity, not minty. In fact, they taste exactly like the Tic-Tacs they resemble so closely in packaging, size, and shape, and for less than half the price.
It says there are approximately 28 servings per container ... I always wondered why they would say "approximately" and then use such a specific number ... am I the only one? Each mint is actually a serving (they have got to be kissing with that), and the nutrition information resembles the report card of a child who has never once shown up to school: zeros all down the line. No calories, carbs, protein, fat, sodium, vitamins, minerals, or anything else. (Regular Tic-Tacs have 2 calories each).
The ingredient list is what you would expect from a sugar-free, no-calorie mint (lots of fake sugar-type stuff )acesulfame K), some artificial flavoring, gum arabic, etc). If that bother you, steer clear. Otherwise, they aren't bad.
I may or may not buy these again, but if I don't it won't be because they are bad, just because I don't regularly eat candy. If I did, however, I would be thrilled that I found these, as they are a much cheaper alternative to Tic-Tacs, and of no lesser quality.

Daniel Boulud's Harira Soup
Richly spiced, hearty, and fragrant, this traditional North African soup is the perfect antidote to winter's chill.
By Daniel Boulud
Harira, an aromatic, warming tomato-and-bean-based soup, is a staple in Morocco. Every region of the country has its own version, using various legumes, pastas, meat, and spices.
We serve this harira with chickpeas and green lentils at Boulud Sud, my Mediterranean-influenced restaurant in Manhattan. I like to use merguez, a spiced lamb sausage, which adds a bold punch of flavor, but it's not essential. I prefer fennel instead of the typical celery used in the mirepoix vegetable base, as fennel offers that sweet note of anise. For a finishing touch, sprinkle on some fresh herbs and add a squeeze of lemon juice, whose acidity brightens the earthy, exotic flavors.
Harira's sophistication lies not in the look of the soup, which resembles a rustic stew, but in the haunting taste and rich textures of the ingredients. It's even better reheated the next day-so be sure you make enough for leftovers.
Michael Madrigale, head sommelier at Boulud Sud, pairs this rustic dish with "Cuvée Faustine" Domaine Comte Abbatucci 2010 ($34), a Mediterranean red wine. "It's elegant, but it has enough fruit and flavor to withstand the spicy sausage and rich lentils." As an alternative, he suggests Château Simone Rosé 2010 ($61). "Its raspberry aroma gives it a freshness that complements the meaty soup," he says.
Harira soup captures the exotic flavors of Morocco. Bowl and plate from ABC Carpet & Home, spoon by Teroforma, water glass from Horne, and wineglass from Global Table; the tiles are from Solar Antique Tiles.

There is no effective treatment for fibrolamellar liver cancer that cannot be removed surgically. In this study, researchers are evaluating different combinations of the drugs everolimus, letrozole, and leuprolide to treat patients with inoperable fibrolamellar liver cancer.
Leuprolide and letrozole inhibit the production of the hormone estrogen, which can fuel the growth of fibrolamellar liver cancer. Everolimus works by inhibiting mTOR, a protein that drives cancer growth.
In this study, patients will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: (1) everolimus alone, (2) leuprolide and letrozole, or (3) everolimus, leuprolide, and letrozole. Patients in groups 1 and 2 who do not do well on those regimens have the option of receiving all three drugs together.
To be eligible for this study, patients must meet several criteria, including but not limited to the following:
For more information and to inquire about eligibility for this study, please contact Dr. Ghassan Abou-Alfa at 646-888-4184.

I've finally settled on generally packing everything for my travels in Pelican cases & checking them. I'm now searching for a bag to use in-flight and in-car. No laptop to carry (that BMF's in the Pelican). Something to keep my pockets empty through TSA chokepoints, and organized before & beyond. Just Kindle, car GPS, MP3 gizmo, phone, camera, chargers, rain jacket, tickets, receipts, Platypus. Extra room for whatever. Probably add my netbook (no tablet yet). I was thinking about the padded compartments of a camera case, but none I've seen have adequate non-camera/bulk space. I've been looking, too, at Shooter's/Tactical stuff, but nothing's jumped out so far. I've overlooking something - I'm excited to see your suggestions! asked Apr 13 '12 at 08:07 Wayne R |
My wife got me a Maxpedition Noatak for Christmas last year. It's a little pricey (just under $100 on Amazon right now) and has a definitive MilSpec look to it, but it has a good number of pockets and storage compartments, as well as lots of exterior clips and straps (Maxpedition makes a bunch of modular accessories for their bags) and some cool/thoughtful tamper-prevention measures. linkanswered Jun 06 '12 at 13:38 pleffas |

I tried camera bags for years, but never could find something i felt comfortable with. I switched to just carrying a toboggan/beanie in my regular bag rolled up to support the lens and wrap around a bit; this has worked well for me on multiple trips but YMMV. The netbook changes your needed dimensions a lot. I've used this case for a netbook for a while and the strap seems a bit awkward at first glance but is actually really well done. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001F7KXB8/ When traveling, I try to use a smaller bag that can stow in my main bag. I have an old mountainsmith that I can't seem to find now, but it is similar to this one: http://www.mountainsmith.com/products.asp?productId=319&categoryId=49&subCategoryId=0&subCategory2Id=0 I've not used this bag but it gets good reviews at REI and I like the Osprey stuff I have. It is sized large enough you might stow your netbook in this. http://www.rei.com/product/773355/osprey-veer-vertical-shoulder-bag linkanswered Apr 20 '12 at 07:54 itsrob |
I would look at Crumpler's bags, maybe the Kazoo. I bought one of their laptop bags (in hindsight, I should have gotten a smaller model but that's my own fault.) They are not cheap (the Kazoo is $55) but they are very well made. linkanswered Jun 06 '12 at 14:13 derbes |
I haven't tried anything from ONA but have done quite a bit of research and will be getting the woman's/purse model for myself for Christmas this year. They have a messenger style and a backpack that looks like it would fit your needs. http://www.onabags.com/ I do have a Kelly Moore woman's model and love it. There are a couple of messenger styles that would also seem to fit your needs. http://kellymoorebag.com/mens.html/ linkanswered Jun 06 '12 at 14:15 SAR58 |
I would highly recommend a Maxpedition Kodiak Gearslinger. It's larger gearslinger than Noatak but can be had in a "leftie" version. I've used it for years and what I love about my Kodiak is that you can easily swing it forward in the crowded places where its security could be compromised when worn on the back. All pockets are perfectly accessible from the top or the side as well. The larger of the two front compartments on the Kodiak has a few dividers inside keeping your keys (attached to a built-in hook) separate from your gadgets so they wouldn't scratch. Maxpedition gear is expensive comparing to some other brands, but the quality is far superior. linkanswered Jun 06 '12 at 14:19 StanO |

Just chiming in here to add my vote for Maxpedition gear. It's all very durable and the tac-tie system lets you semi-permanently add additional pouches. I'm not going to recommend a specific model though, but I'll advice you to take a look at both their Versipack and Gearslinger series. The former are single-sling side-carry bags, while the latter are single-sling back-carry bags. Both series come in different sizes. Take stock of the stuff you want to carry, add some margin, and see which model fits your needs. My regular setup is a Jumbo S-Type Versipack (s-type = left-side carry), with a phone-holster attached. When I travel, I normally add the Janus for easy access to things like passports and travel documents. Sometimes I also add an M1 waistpack (which can be attached using tac-ties). For hikes, I have the 32oz Nalgene bottle, for which the Jumbo has a special, collapsible compartment at the rear. One thing to keep in mind: Don't trust the photo's on the Maxpedition website. Their regular bag-showing guy is tiny, so the bags look bigger than they really are. Also, don't be put off by Maxpedition's focus on CCW (Carrying concealed weapon). The CCW compartment is ideal to keep quick access items (My keys and wallet are in there). Hope this helps, Jeroen linkanswered Jun 07 '12 at 00:02 |

Chairman of the Midwest, JPMorgan Chase
Megacity. That's what Chicago is predicted to become by 2030, making it the third U.S. city to reach a total population over 10 million. "I think a 'megacity' is one that has the capacity to be a global city," says Glenn Tilton, chairman of the Midwest, JPMorgan Chase.
As a board member of World Business Chicago since former Mayor Richard Daley established it in 1999, Mr. Tilton's role expanded to co-chair after Mayor Rahm Emanuel broadened the plan and tripled the board. "This is certainly a more detailed effort," says Mr. Tilton. "It has 10 strategies, which are an expansion of bringing corporate headquarters to downtown Chicago."
The former CEO of United Airlines, known for his knowledge and experience in complex global businesses, emphasizes the importance of creating a plan rooted in reality. "As Mayor Emanuel has said on more than one occasion, the trajectory of the competitiveness of the region leading up to the development of the plan has not been encouraging." He continues, "Setting a fact-based precedent for the prior 10 years provides an understanding of what you need to do to reverse a trend. We have what the mayor refers to as 'North Stars.' We know what we're focused on accomplishing, but now we have to do it."
At JPMorgan Chase, Mr. Tilton, who is considered a prolific rainmaker, has been working rigorously since his first day on the job one year ago, building and reinforcing the firm's business and brand throughout the Midwest.
Mr. Tilton's work with World Business Chicago is also tied to his participation in the civic community. In 2011, he was named chairman of the American Cancer Society's national program, CEOs Against Cancer. Joining organizations addressing topics including education, globalization and economics is also a priority; currently, he serves on the boards for Big Shoulders Fund, After School Matters, The Chicago Council on Global Affairs, The Commercial Club of Chicago and The Economic Club of Chicago, among others. "I try to make sure they're connected to a personal theme," he says, "because then I'm able to tie one to the other."

As a tradition, LaCie announces its latest signature storage device at CES 2015 -- a portable drive covered with scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass. The shiny new device is quite dazzling and enticing, but at the same time it makes you wonder if you need it at a hefty price of $280.
Pricing not available
LaCie's latest Rugged Thunderbolt is now faster in performance, larger in capacities and much better in design.
CNET editor Dong Ngo explains how you can spend a lot of money on the D2 Thunderbolt 2 drive from LaCie and then spend some more on its update kit. But there's at least one bonus point that might make many of you happy to buy the device anyway.
If you need lots of extra storage space in a compact package, the LaCie D2 Thunderbolt 2 is a great accessory for your Thunderbolt 2-enabled Macs.
Pricing not available
LaCie is now shipping Thunderbolt storage devices that use the latest 5TB internal hard drive from Seagate.
CNET editor Dong Ngo sacrifices the well-being of his little toe to prove just how to tough (and fast) the new LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt All-Terrain portable drive is.
CNET editor Dong Ngo demonstrates, with a great amount of charm, how short a second actually is, just so that we can appreciate the ridiculously fast speed of the LaCie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt 2.
LaCie's latest Little Big Disk Thunderbolt 2 is a super fast external storage device.
If you want to keep your data safe from handling mishaps while getting the top Thunderbolt performance on the market, look no further than the LaCie Rugged Thunderbolt All-Terrain portable drive.
French hardware company, now a Seagate subsidiary, says virtually everyone who shopped on LaCie's Web site in the last year is at risk.

Customer Reviews
- RESULTS AFTER THREE USES! Review by MeghanLee
Price Value Quality I have been embarrassed about the bumps on my upper thighs for over 10 years and I have tried multiple methods of getting rid of them. Within 3 uses I have noticeably softer and smoother skin!! I can't believe my eyes, in fact I can't stop looking at my thighs! Although somewhat expensive the results are well worth the money!! SHORTS AND SKIRTS HERE I COME!!
- Where has this been all my life? Review by Leslie
Price Value Quality I have dry skin. Nothing has ever been effective - no lotion, grease, oil, butter, you name it. I've always exfoliated with something or other, but without much success. I thought I'd try this, and was delighted the jar is really big. I figured if it had glycolic acid that might help release the dead skin cells - and it did! My skin has never been so smooth and without the nasty stuck on dead skin cells, my skin takes moisturizer really well. I no longer have such dry, unattractive skin, but when Dr. Kunin comes up with a product to firm up loose skin from weight loss, well, that'll really be the day!!
- Awesome Review by ANITA
Price Value Quality Never thought that I would get my skin clear again
- does it all... Review by laurie
Price Value Quality I've tried lots of shower exfoliants. I've found them either too oily, too abrasive, or not abrasive enough. This scrub has been a constant in my shower since I tried it a few years ago. It does it all, I use it in place of soap on my skin, and have been told I have "baby soft" thighs, which used to be my problem area. The combination of scrub and glycolic acid (leave it on a few minutes if you can) really does the trick.
- The only scrub that works Review by Donna
Price Value Quality I have been using this scrub on my arms and buttocks for 4 years. I also use the KP moisturizer. They both help alone but together they completely get rid of those red bumps. Try it today!
- Paalam (Goodbye) KP Review by Marvin
Price Value Quality Simply the best! This product does what it advertised. Scrub those chicken bumps away with KP Duty!!
- efficace Review by Sylvie
Price Value Quality exfoliation parfaite ! très efficace ! merci !
- Great Exfoliation Review by C
Price Value Quality Been using this consistently since it first came out - love it!
- My favorite exfoliator for the body! Review by Cindy
Price Value Quality I just love this product and get nervous if I run out. I too have KP, but didn't know this condition had a name until I read about it here on the doctor's website. This exfoliator not only prevents those unsightly bumps on my arms and sides of upper thighs, but it makes my skin as smooth as a baby's! That is with using as directed, following a regimen to keep this condition under control. I feel comfortable wearing sleeveless shirts and love how smoothe my skin is. Who would think after all those years of dealing with this problem that I would find a solution and could finally wear clothes like other women! Thank you Dr. Kunin!!
- best exfoliator I've ever used! Review by Denise
Price Value Quality I love everything about this exfoliator. It's seriously the best one I've ever used!

County OKs $20 million settlement for boy who had surgery at Stroger
BY LISA DONOVAN Cook County Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com February 5, 2013 12:44PM
Updated: March 7, 2013 6:35AM
In the span of a year, Keith Francique went from being a carefree 3-year-old, captured on video running along the beach, "yelling Mommy, Daddy" to a child who could no longer walk or speak or feed himself after undergoing outpatient surgery at John H. Stroger Hospital of Cook County, an attorney for the boy's family said.
On Tuesday, Cook County commissioners voted to pay $20 million to settle the medical malpractice lawsuit the boy's mother filed claiming that her son suffered a heart attack and stopped breathing while alone for several minutes in the recovery room after outpatient surgery on an undescended testicle.
This was a case of "a child who is an overly sedated state — suffering from the effects of the anesthesia and shouldn't have been dropped off in the recovery room. He was not monitored or tended to until he went in to cardiac and respiratory arrest," said Chicago Attorney Timothy Ashe, who is representing the family. The lack of oxygen to the brain lasted minutes — leaving him "profoundly brain damaged" and unable to care for himself, Ashe said.
The boy's mother, Justine Francique, was not talking publicly about the settlement, but Ashe said the money will be used for round-the-clock long-term care, occupational and speech therapy as well as surgery down the line.
Ashe said there's video of the boy running along the beach, yelling to his parents. Now 4, "He can't walk, he cannot talk, he's incontinent. He is tube-fed and he requires care and treatment for every aspect of his life," Ashe said.
By settling the lawsuit, the county admitted no wrongdoing. But Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle told reporters at an unrelated new conference Tuesday that several staffers at Stroger Hospital — the main hospital in the county's public health system — were disciplined after the incident.
"I think in any human enterprise bad things happen. This was a particularly bad thing that happened," she said, noting that she had great confidence in the hospital system's bosses and that steps have been taken to deal with the problem.
The $20 million settlement, thought to be one of the top five payouts in county's history, will come out of the county government's self-insurance fund — taxpayer dollars.
During Tuesday's meeting, the county voted for two other settlements stemming from medical malpractice lawsuits filed against the county's health and hospital system, including one for $2.4 million and one for $1 million.

OWENSBORO, Ky. (4/18/13) – This is the sixth in a series of columns submitted to SurfKY News from the youth of Majesty Christian Academy in Owensboro, KY. This article, authored by Kaylee Gilmore, speaks on the huge subject of bullying, from a student's perspective.
Bullying is, "when a child, preteen, or teen is threatened, humiliated, embarrassed or otherwise targeted by another child," according to a web definition of the word.When you try to be different, you can be bullied, but when you are yourself, you can also be bullied. What's wrong with being "you"? Absolutely nothing.
The Bible says, "Delight thyself also in the Lord and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart" - Psalms 37:4. Every man, woman, boy and girl deserve equal rights, equal opportunities and equal dignity without discrimination.
Bullying is also characterized by "an individual behaving in a certain way to gain power over another person." Did you know that if you turn and face the other way when someone is being bullied, you might as well be the bully? Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Sometimes, you have to be your own hero. Don't let bullies win. Stand for yourself, stand for others, and stand strong.
I'm Kaylee Gilmore and I WILL stand AGAINST bullying. What will you stand for?
Kaylee Gilmore

But to honor the memory of the well-known chef who worked at M. Restaurant in Nashville, his colleagues and family established a fund called "Tummies for Toby" to collect money for a chef mission trip to Haiti in July on Willis' behalf. The new foundation will be sending a coalition of chefs and friends to Haiti to feed the hungry and help build a hospital, homes and kitchens.
His cousin Kelly DeLude, who was raised in Cleveland with Willis, said, "I think Toby would be humbled and proud that his colleagues would come together and do this in his honor. He had a good heart and supported several charities. This mission trip will truly honor his memory. I feel something good is coming out of something so tragic. As his family, we're very proud that he lived his life in such a way that people would want to come together and honor him like this. We are so very, very proud of him."
The family said they were "devastated" to hear the shocking news that the Cleveland native had suffered a stroke in Nashville and was hanging on for dear life, before he passed a few days later on Feb. 10.
Willis had attended Hopewell Elementary and graduated from Cleveland High School in 1988. He attended Sewanee University and went on to become an award-winning chef who gave back to his community by supporting several charities, according to his family.
His grandfather and grandmother, Wallace and Margaret Rymer, owned Rymer's Produce Market and the restaurant bearing their name. His parents, Betty and Ronald Willis, said their only child loved to cook and also loved home-cooked meals.
"He learned how to cook by helping me and his grandmother," Betty said. "When he became a chef, he cooked for several upscale restaurants, but when he came home for a visit he didn't want to cook. He wanted to eat my cooking."
Throughout his career Willis cooked for many famous people, including Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, Amy Grant, Vince Gill, the Judds and several others, according to his family. He received high praise for his culinary and social skills, including winner of "Best in Show" and "Best Menu" last year at the Flavors of Nashville culinary event, which spotlights premier regional chefs creating menus above and beyond the usual restaurant fare.
"Toby was soft-spoken and reserved, but he would do anything for anybody," DeLude said. "He had a really good heart and he was always polite."
Jan Strawn, who helped bring Willis to Nashville, told the Tennessean, "We have lost a wonderful colleague. It has shaken our roots, because it's a tight, tight group. He was such a sweet, elegant man. He was sweet and kind and generous and talented."
Willis served as the Garden Plaza's first chef in Cleveland before going on to serve as executive chef at The Lodge on Gorham's Bluff in North Alabama and executive chef for the Nashville City Club.
The M. Restaurant is holding a series of dinners in Nashville to help raise money for the special mission trip. Willis' parents said they would like to ask the Cleveland community to help honor their son by supporting the one-time event, which will take place during the July Fourth weekend.
"A lot of people in Cleveland grew up with Toby and knew him well," DeLude added. "If they want to do something to honor him — this would be the way to honor his memory — contribute to this fund and continue his legacy of generosity. He had a very giving heart."
Willis helped create a philosophy about food, which he shared with the public on his blog, "Elevated Southern." The expression referred to his rural mountain cooking with his signature approach to contemporary food.
Anyone wishing to contribute to "Tummies for Toby" can make a check or money order payable to "Tummies for Toby c/o Avenue Bank." Mail to: Avenue Bank, 209 10th Ave., Suite 250, Nashville TN 37203.

The mini-vacay is over! All I ever dream about now is Jack Bauer threatening to shoot me and Alec Baldwin being my evil boss (which is to say, I spent the vacay watching old episodes of 24 and 30 Rock) and I've also spent an unreasonable amount of time meditating on the 2011 baseball season.
I am refreshed and ready to write. (Sort of.)
I figured I'll deal with the New Year Resolutions tomorrow- procrastination? Heck yes.- and today go over some of the big baseball moments from the past year. That is, big baseball moments from this blog right here. Best Diamond Girl moments might be a more appropriate title. Ready? Okay, here we go.
- When me and Sabes met in post-apocalyptic San Fran and, er, chatted. About stuff.
- When me and my Giants hugged and chatted and braided each other's hair. AKA, first game of Spring Training.
- When I wrote That Post. The one that people endlessly find in Google by searching things like "what should I wear to a baseball game???". I have a lingering feeling that I've failed them, somehow.
- When I got all prophetic and ripped on the MLB Fan Cave.
- When the whole cinnamon roasted walnuts obsession started.
- When I inserted Jon Daniels and Michael Young into Confessions of a Shopaholic. That was fab.
- When I got all useful and thought of new career options for Selig, after he retires.
- When I FINALLY GOT CINNAMON ROASTED WALNUTS.
- When I made some ill conceived predictions for the season.
- When I got all "I was right!" about the MLB Fan Cave.
- When I left Sabes a nice phone message and he didn't call me back.
- When I made a weird cake and won ULTIMATE Tim Lincecum Fan. Thank you, CSN Bay Area and I love you.
- When the Despicable Me balloon thing started.
- When I offered the bullpen "Diamonds! Piles of gold! Armani suits! Swiss watches! Hawaii Vacations!" and they not-so-politely declined.
- When I came up with twelve irratio- I mean, possible theories as to why the Giants walk off so much.
- When I asked y'all to do me a huge favor and tell me "hip contusion" actually means "he's eating ice cream and watching corny romantic comedies on demand in his hotel room" in code.
- When I ate pink and white striped taffy and over-blogged the draft.
- When my prophetic-ness went a little wrong and I said Moneyball looked good. Ha, Diamond Girl.

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.

A lot of techniques are developed to treat soils polluted by hydrocarbons pollutants: incineration, thermal treatment, extraction, chemical oxidation, bioremediation… Some of these techniques are very energy consuming (incineration, thermal treatment…) and often need a subsequent treatment of the generated gases or liquids. Of all the decontamination methods, bioremediation appears to be the ...

Well, that's good.

Love it.
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."

Upon first seeing Kellogg's Frosted Mini Wheats Little Bites in the stores, I snatched up the Honey Nut variety and enjoyed every last morsel. Adam from Grub Grade and Jilian from Back to the Nest, both left comments that the Chocolate version was the best. So you know what I was on the look out for when it was time to get more cereal?! Kellogg's Frosted Mini Wheats Chocolate Little Bites of course!
Each tiny square is composed of tightly packed layers of shredded wheat that crunch and meld together so nicely. Furthermore, the size of these sweet treats makes them perfect for snacking. If you plan on adding milk, the chocolate goodness is still prevalent and utterly delicious, but some of the fudgy brownie flavor is overwhelmed by the sweetness of the milk.
A good sized portion of 52 biscuits (55 grams) provides 200 calories, 2 grams of total fat which includes 1 gram of saturated fat,5 grams of protein, 6 grams of fiber (24% of the DV) and 12 grams of sugar. The ingredients start with whole grain wheat, followed by (you guessed it) sugar, semi-sweet chocolate chips (which also include sugar in it's ingredients list), cocoa. The sweetener sorbitol is also used and a couple of other components, which make up a short and sweet ingredient list.
I am most definitely going to be buying Kellogg's Frosted Mini Wheats Chocolate Little Bites again very soon. They make for an awesome treat to satisfy your sweet tooth, an occasional sinful breakfast or a simple and quick alternative to brownies (seriously, I think this is what makes them deserve 4 stars)! The 14.5oz box that I bought was worth every single penny of the $2.50 that I paid.

Jesse Jackson Jr. signs plea deal; feds still investigating last week
BY NATASHA KORECKI, MICHAEL SNEED AND DAN MIHALOPOULOS Staff Reporters February 8, 2013 11:27AM
Former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. has reached a plea agreement with federal prosecutors, sources say.
Updated: March 10, 2013 6:43AM
Jesse Jackson Jr. has signed an agreement to plead guilty to federal corruption charges and acknowledge misuse of his campaign fund, sources said.
The former 17-year South Shore Democratic congressman had told associates that he tried "protecting" his wife during negotiations leading up to the plea agreement, but "they wouldn't let him," the source said.
Jackson's wife, former Ald. Sandi Jackson (7th), is also under investigation.
Federal agents from Washington, D.C., visited Chicago as recently as last week interviewing witnesses about the former congressman, a source with direct knowledge of the effort told the Chicago Sun-Times.
"They're still investigating. They're questioning people to corroborate," Jackson's statements to federal authorities, said the source.
The feds were questioning witnesses about activity in Jackson's congressional campaign fund including for transactions specifically in 2009, 2010 and 2011, the source said.
Earlier this week, the Sun-Times reported that Sandi Jackson is now the target of a separate investigation by federal officials.
Two sources with knowledge of that probe say that authorities believe the former 7th Ward alderman had direct knowledge of alleged misuse of campaign money.
Jesse Jackson Jr. has allegedly misspent a large amount of campaign funds, including buying a $40,000 Rolex watch.
Earlier this week, Sun-Times columnist Michael Sneed quoted a source saying "significant jail time is now definitely a part of the deal" the feds offered him.
But it's hard to estimate the extent of the punishment Jesse Jackson Jr. faces without yet knowing the amount of campaign funds he allegedly misspent, defense lawyers and experts in campaign-finance law said Friday.
"The amount involved will be the biggest factor in his penalty, mitigated by his health condition and by his resignation from Congress," said Kenneth Gross, a former associate general counsel for the Federal Election Commission who is now in private practice in Washington.
When he resigned from Congress in November, Jackson cited his battle with a bi-polar disorder and depression and acknowledged the federal investigation.
Heather Winslow, a former federal defender who works as a private defense attorney here, said Jackson is benefitting from working out a plea deal behind closed doors before being charged formally, in open court.
If the allegations against him were public, she said, then there might be more public pressure on prosecutors to not show leniency with the former congressman.
Still, she predicted he would eventually spend "somewhere in the realm of 30-40 months" behind bars.
It's likely that the U.S. attorney's office and Jackson's lawyers have engaged in "charge bargaining," said Jeffrey Steinback, a defense lawyer who specializes negotiating plea deals in federal criminal cases.
"There's probably an agreement that's structured so he admits to a count whose maximum sentence is far lower than the other counts he otherwise could have been convicted of," Steinback said.
But it's not yet clear, Steinback said, whether the agreement leaves Jackson's sentence entirely to the court. The agreement could "specify an agreed-upon range" of his potential prison term, he said.
Steinback added that Jackson's deal could require him to repay the amount of money that was misspent.
The ongoing investigation continues to stun those close to Jackson, who was a target of a different federal probe back in 2008 and 2009, involving former Gov. Rod Blagojevich's attempted sale of President Barack Obama's vacant U.S. Senate seat. The Sun-Times first reported in 2010 that a fund-raiser with long ties to the Jackson family told federal authorities that Jackson in October of 2008 had directed him to approach the Blagojevich camp with a $6 million offer for the Senate seat.
However, that fund-raiser, Raghuveer Nayak, alleged the conversation was private. Nayak also told authorities that at Jackson's behest, he secretly paid for airline trips for a Jackson female friend to fly from Washington to Chicago.
Nayak himself is now under indictment for conduct involving surgical centers he owns in Illinois and Indiana.
