Expert Advice on Travelling Alone...
ravelling is often exciting, sometimes - especially if you're a business traveller - boring and, just occasionally, risky. But whether you're faced with excitement, tedium or danger, the presence of friends, family or colleagues acts as a buffer mechanism to help magnify your pleasures and insulate you from distress.

Instead of freezing it again; transform it. Make Ghee/Clarified Butter.
Just simmer the butter until the milk solid start forming. Skim of the scum, keep simmering on low until the water boils out. You're left with pure butter fat with no moisture. Filter through cheese cloth or a fine strainer into a jar. It will keep for months at room temp, and longer in the 'fridge. Also it has a nutty flavor--which can be deeper if you simmer it longer when you make it. Another bonus is that smoke of this is much higher than butter so it can be used at higher temp for veggies and other quickly fried thing. It's especially good for sauteing fish.
Well played.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is TREY SURRY!
Facts about TREY SURRY
- Breed: Labrador Retriever/Shar Pei Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
TREY SURRY's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
5/15/12 UPDATE 4/19/12: Trey's x-rays showed that he had an old pelvic fracture and hip dislocation. Both have healed. He may experience some arthritis in this area in the future and has started a daily medication to help his joints in hopes of keeping his joints healthy. Trey has received a clean bill of health and is ready for his forever home! He was found on a volunteers door step and she took im to the vet in order to get him checked out. No one claimed this guy and he had no tags or microchip He is a 3 year old Shar pei/Lab mix and weighs 60 pounds. He is getting along well with humans but having difficulty with other dogs. He would be good for someone who is active. The foster mom is working with him on basic commands and socilazation. Very loyal and will stay by your side. He is up to date with shots/neutered and is heartworm negative. If interested please contact Regina at email@example.com
Other Pets at WAGS Rescue and Referral
Why Adoption is a Great Option
TREY SURRY, a Southampton Labrador Retriever/Shar Pei dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever/Shar Pei for sale in Southampton, or seeking a Labrador Retriever/Shar Pei dog from a breeder in Southampton.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Southampton already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Southampton breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever/Shar Pei breeders who help with Labrador Retriever/Shar Pei rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Southampton paves the way for another one to be saved.

The entire Kodak Elitechrome series belong to my favorite films. From the EB, to the EBX, ED, and EL; they all have great features once you know how to use them well.

Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2013 | Pictures
Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2013
Prabal Gurung's latest offering might be the most inventive blending of art and commerce we've seen from the Pre-Fall 2013 collections so far.
The designer managed to distill references as disparate as his homeland of Nepal and Baz Luhrmann's 1996 film Romeo + Juliet, parts of which were filmed in Mexico, into a collection that preserved the visual appeal of his last outing without mimicking all of its embellishment. A metallic tweed in bright neon blue, green, and pink was combined with black fabric for a lightweight coat and a shift dress, and floral prints and patterns dominated where solid blocks of color or black and white did not.
There were a few dresses that Gurung couldn't help decorating, though, most notably a black dress with panels of white and purple fabric that got covered in a lattice of blue and green blooms. That dress, like so many others in this collection, struck the hard-to-get balance between a dream and something you can actually buy and wear.

TV,DVD+DVD's, HiFi+ CD's, tourist info, local maps.
1 Bedroom (double+single, baby bed) on first floor, easy&safe access by renewed fixed stairs (plus sleeping couch (200x140) on groundfloor); Bathroom with shower, toilet and urinal; Private terrace (table, chairs, BBQ; outdoor light;) 4 bikes for free

The Garden House is eco-friendly: all electricity from own solar and wind energy; super insulated, heat recovery from shower water and flushing toilet with rainwater.
I am born&grown, educated in Amsterdam, but lived and worked for years in tropical areas as a doctor (clinical and public health). My wife Carla works for the Municipality of Amsterdam. We love to make long bicycle tours in Holland and abroad. We are active in a local group of climate activists for CO2 reduction among citizens.
Anrik Engelhard purchased this cabin in 2001
Carla became 'claustrophic' in our previous 7 th floor apartment. To our surprise we ended up in Amsterdam North where nature is in the backyard....We were very lucky to find this place and never take it for granted.
After an exiting day in town get rid of the noise, the dust. Park your car secure in front of the house at no cost. Even better, leave your car next day; take our (free!) bicycles. After 20 minutes you are in town after enjoying the view from the (free/7x24) ferry. Even taxi drivers say: 'Wow, I didn't know we have places like this in Mokum' !! (Amsterdam).
The region around the Garden House is typically Dutch: history of our struggle against the sea; where Rembrandt painted; historical and contemporary architecture; tour along the fishermans villages along the IJsselmeer (Volendam, Edam, Marken) Open air museum Zaanse Schans. And... van Gogh, Rijksmuseum, Eye (film museum), and just walk along the canals.... Amsterdam is great, though small: everything within easy reach!

Who do you feel was the better adventure game company, and the better game company overall in their respective heydays (80s-90s)?
Which made better games?
Considering the vast majority of regulars who frequent the General Chat showed up here for either Sam and Max or Monkey Island, and the King's Quest game has had NOTHING in terms of new information since the bare-bones announcement that they're doing one, the skew here is going to be pretty bad. This will be somewhat exacerbated by the one-sided rivalry LucasArts fans seem to have with Sierra as a whole, and the misguided historical revisionism that some LucasArts fans(rather than Adventure Game fans who also like LucasArts games) use to treat Sierra like some anachronistic dinosaur that never knew what it was doing, that "earned" its demise through practices that extended throughout its history.
LucasArts, hands down. Sorry, Sierra. I adore Sierra (and Quest for Glory is, like, one of my favourite game series of all time), but in terms of overall quality, LucasArts wins. Sierra spewed a lot of adventure games (much more than LA did), but not all of them were that good.
Sierra did have Police Quest though... and those were full of awesome. What other game made you search a man's underwear?
@Johro said: Sierra did have Police Quest though... and those were full of awesome. What other game made you search a man's underwear?
Monkey Island 2.
Given Telltale's roots, I think you'll find very few people on Sierra's side here. :p
I do love Sierra's games, though, even if they haven't aged too well.
I was a LucasArts fan when I was younger simply because I couldn't complete many Sierra games (although I always got Sierra games too because I really liked Sierra's art style), but that's changed as I've gotten older and have been able to finally play through Sierra's games. I voted Sierra as the better adventure company because they always pushed the envelope for what an adventure game was. They were the first to have static graphics in 1979, then they had parserless control from a drop down menu (which LucasArts used later for Labyrinth) before they brought in a controllable character with King's Quest making the first parser/controllable character hybrid, an RPG/adventure hybrid with Hero's Quest/Quest for Glory, etc. They did bring in stuff their competitors were doing to stay up with the competition (pure point-and-click interface, then 3D before stopping adventures), but for the most part, they were pretty innovative.
LucasArts games were great, but after Maniac Mansion (which was definitely innovative), they just took a formula and stuck with it (although they improved it slightly over time, removing extra verbs, adding inventory icons, etc.) (with the exception of Grim Fandango which was innovative). Not that formulaic is bad (I really enjoyed the LucasArts games), but I applaud Sierra for trying new things (and having those things work out well for the most part).
LucasArts made Grim Fandango. That alone is worth my vote. And in terms of player-centred design, LucasArts win again.
I do give props to Sierra for innovation in the graphic adventure genre, but I was introduced to the genre through LucasArts, and I never looked back.
On the other hand, Sierra is probably the better overall game company. LucasArts will always be the Star Wars company, while Sierra actually made some pretty good stuff outside of adventure games. SWAT 4 for instance. I love(d) that game.

Denver, CO (Sports Network) - Todd Helton went 2-for-4 and knocked in two runs, as the Colorado Rockies upended the Chicago Cubs, 6-2, in the opener of a four-game series at Coors Field.
Chris Iannetta hit a two-run homer, and Brad Hawpe added a two-run single for the Rockies, who have won six of their last eight games. Ubaldo Jimenez (9-9) gave up two runs -- one earned -- on four hits over 6 2/3 innings to get the win. He also walked five and struck out six.
"It's important, each of these games," said Colorado shortstop Troy Tulowitzki. "The Cubs are right there with us, and it was nice to get off to a good start."
Alfonso Soriano finished 2-for-4 with an RBI for the Cubs, who have dropped three of five and slipped a game behind St. Louis for first place in the NL Central standings. The Cardinals defeated Pittsburgh, 6-4.
Carlos Zambrano was scheduled to start for Chicago but was scratched because of lower back stiffness. The same ailment forced the right-hander to leave his last appearance on Saturday after three innings. He is scheduled to undergo an MRI Saturday in Chicago.
"He went out there to warm up, and he said that after two or three pitches, his back tightened up and he started getting spasms," said Cubs manager Lou Piniella.
Lefty Sean Marshall (3-7) replaced Zambrano on the mound and yielded three runs and five hits in two innings of work. Jeff Samardzija tossed four innings of relief and surrendered the home run to Iannetta.
Kosuke Fukudome walked to begin the ballgame, scampered to third on a Milton Bradley single and scored when Derrek Lee grounded into a 6-4-3 double play.
Colorado quickly countered with three runs in the bottom of the first inning. Carlos Gonzalez ripped a one-out double, and Helton tied the game with a base hit to center. A double by Tulowitzki put two men in scoring position for Hawpe, who slapped a single to right for a 3-1 lead.
Iannetta blasted a two-run homer in the fourth, but Chicago got a run back in the sixth on a broken-bat single by Soriano.
The Rockies widened the gap in the seventh, when Gonzalez led off with a triple and Helton lined an RBI single to center.

Deena's Shocking Revelation: I Didn't Sleep With Anyone in Florence (VIDEO)
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
No matter what country they're in, the Jersey Shore stars have a swinging door of men and women alike staying over. With even a room solely set aside as the "smoosh room," it was surprising to hear Deena Nicole Cortese talk about what really went down (or didn't go down rather) in the Florence, Italy house.
"Actually in Italy, I didn't have sex once there," Deena admitted to Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb on the TODAY show Tuesday morning. "I really didn't. I made out, yes."
Though it's doubtful that this was the case for her housemates, Deena and Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola defended their partying ways, telling the talk show hosts:
"This is what people forget. We're in a house without cell phones, without music ... without any communication with the outside world. ... We have no days off. Everything is recorded. At that point, we we're all so out of our comfort zone. ... The only thing that's more fun to me (Deena) is just gimme a glass of wine!"Kathie Lee and Hoda, who have declared Wednesday to be "Winesday" on their show, couldn't agree more. However, Kathie did crack a few jokes, admitting that she couldn't tell the boys on the show apart.

The Samaj Parivartan Samudaya, petitioner in the Supreme Court in the illegal mining case, on Thursday appealed to the Supreme Court to cancel permissions given to over 100 mining leases under Category A and B for what it said violating norms.
The Supreme Court-appointed Central Empowered Committee (CEC) had, in its final report submitted on February 3, 2012, classified mining leases into Category A, B, and C based on the alleged illegalities and the court ordered the closure of 72 mining leases in Category C (those found to have indulged in illegal mining or encroachment). There are 45 mining leases in Category A and 49 leases in Category B.
Speaking to The Hindu, one of the petitioners and chairman of a study team of the samudaya Vishnu Kamath said that counsel for samudaya Prashanth Bhushan presented to court the alleged illegalities committed by the over 100 mines in Category A and B and sought cancellation of permission given to them.
He said that Mr. Bhushan also appealed to court to constitute two committees for prosecution and punishing the lessees who have allegedly committed illegalities and irregularities and for monitoring Rehabilitation and Reclamation of the mining areas.
Through Mr. Bhushan, the samudaya had urged the court to limit the annual extraction of ore from 30 million tonnes to 10 million tones per annum.
"We are contesting other issues raised under various interlocutory applications (IA) in the last two years," Mr. Kamath added.

I sent an email about a missing item in my order (#25306) on 6/24 but haven't heard back except for the auto-responder. ('issue-32780')
I know you are swamped and are having some difficulties but I just wanted to see if I could get a reply this way in case there are still some email issues going on.
As a side note, I know I was having occasional missing emails from TTG as well as a few other companies and I complained to my site hosting provider who claimed that it was a mail server misconfiguration on the sender's part. Personally I suspected they were just using flaky filters. I've since changed hosting companies and I don't seem to have that problem any more but I just thought I'd throw this out there. While I doubt TTG has their mail server misconfigured, it might explain why there seems to be so many people missing emails all of the sudden. With my old host, support auto-responders still worked but I stopped receiving notifications about game releases. Those have worked again since changing providers. I don't know if this will help TTG or not but what the heck..... :)

RTS responds to woman being kicked off bus
Rochester, N.Y. - The Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RGRTA) responded Thursday to a viral video showing a woman and two infants being removed from an RTS bus Tuesday night.
Here is the full statement from the RGRTA spokesperson:
We have completed our detailed review of events that occurred on Tuesday evening, June 17.
An RTS Bus Operator called for assistance to have a customer removed from the bus because of her fraudulent use of an RTS bus pass. The Bus Operator is a long-time RTS employee in good standing and took appropriate action as he was trained to do.
Unfortunately, fraudulent pass use is a daily occurrence; situations are usually resolved without incident.
On this occasion the situation escalated and reinforces our need to continue to educate customers about pass rules and regulations. The customer and her two children were driven safely home by an RTS employee. We apologize to the other customers who were inconvenienced by this.
As stewards of taxpayer dollars, we must insure appropriate use of our resources and established fare rules.

Hey Y'all, The soil here (Baton Rouge, La) varies wildly. Where I am, on what was once the banks of a considerable river at some point way in the pre-Columbian past, is very 'clay-y.' I don't have the word. It being a nature made levee, it's natural that it be so. How can I work around that? I mean it holds water like a punchbowl and of course clay isn't great for most plants. I can get around the second problem, it being bad for most plants, bu putting in a lot of quality store bought soil. The drainage problem I can't tackle outside of a massive earth moving project. Any ideas? I'm creating a butterfly and hummingbird garden - are there any plants that fit that category that like/can live in clay and/or tolerate being in a lot of water (it's roots i mean)? Thanks! PS Sorry for the barrage of questions I kep asking. No one I know is a gardener and to say that I am a novice gardener would be a massive overstatement of my abilities! |

You can improve the drainage! I wrote this for someone else, but I think you'll find it applicable also. I've done this many times and seen this work to drain the clay in OH, in the subsoil compacted with heavy equipment after a housing development is built, and here in AL, it helps make the too-well-drained sandy soil hold moisture longer, have more tilth and fertility. If you've got more time than energy, like I do, smothering and lasagna is the easiest way to start a new garden bed for free, or almost. Sooo much easier than digging up grass. Just spread newspaper (about 10 sheets thick) or cardboard, overlapping well, until the area you want to be a bed is covered. Then cover the paper with 4-6" of finely shredded mulch and wait for the grass to die, usually 4-6 weeks but could be longer for some grasses. I've done this many, many times. My latest one is really ugly but I'm just trying to make lemonade out of lemons with this one... drought (probably aided by grubs) killed the grass here so I decided that would be the new sunny front bed I was considering. I did dig out a little spot that had hardly any grass and put some Cannas and Gladiolus there, a tiny baby maple tree, some Hibiscus cuttings which still just look stupid 'cuz they're "dead" sticks in the ground, then kind of working around it with smothering, and bark chips, which aren't my preference but I had them available. They don't stay in place if it ever rains really hard. Anyway, with this, I'm not planning to leave the bark chips there, they're just making sure the newspaper is held firmly to the contours of the ground to block the air and light from reaching the grass, which is what is needed to kill it. Whenever I can find more shredded hardwood, I'll replace the bark chips. Anyway, the newspaper decomposes and does not need to be removed later, just dig through it to add plants in the ground. I've also smothered grass with stuff that was handy, but does have to be removed to use the bed, like sheets of metal, old egg crate mattress topper, the bags of mulch that will cover the spot, whatever's handy. I think it's easier to wait for the grass to die than dig it up, and I don't mind if it has to get more ugly in the process of getting more pretty. One other benefit of smothering with a leave-in-place substance like paper or cardboard is that the weed seeds that may be in the ground are unable to germinate as they might be if you just dug up the grass and/or tilled. The lasagna comes into play if you add amendment layers to your smothering. For example, you could put the paper/cardboard, then kitchen scraps, ready to use compost, leaves, yard trimmings, whatever organic material (OM) that is handy, then the mulch (or not, if the other stuff is a thick enough layer to hold the paper in place and block the light.) It's not necessary to have lasagna layers when smothering, but when planting later, there's a huge improvement if a lot of AND, while you're waiting, you can set potted plants there... I wrote this for someone complaining about clay, which you probably also have in ID so will paste it here also. Some of this is redundant... Before I moved to AL, I started many new gardens in OH, in the sub-clay they leave after removing the top soil, when making a housing development, and always where there was grass growing, which exacerbates the problem. It's either muddy or concrete, packed hard from bulldozers and giant trucks. Clay is wonderful stuff, just not by itself. Sounds like you have soil with no organic matter (OM) in it, which is much easier and quicker to fix than you might think. The more OM matter you can add, the better the soil will become, and more quickly. After two springs of doing nothing but adding a few inches (3-5) of finely shredded harwood, and all of the fallen leaves over the intervening winter, you should notice a difference in texture, drainage, color, tilth, fertility, ability to moderate both excess water and periods of no rain, by the next summer. By the second fall, you should be able to put 18" of leaves on beds and there should be enough decomposition for them to be completely gone by spring. Now imagine how much you could improve on that by also occasionally adding other OM like compost that you can buy or make from kitchen scraps and yard waste, and/or other materials that can compost in place w/o being composted first, like (confidently seed-free) lawnmower bag trimmings, pine needles, small amounts/pieces of yard trimmings, coffee grounds, weeds you pull before they've made seeds (I lay them with the roots in the air, to make sure they die,) just never a huge amount of one particular thing on a particular spot. If it's dead plant material of a dry type that won't attract fruit flies or other pests, doesn't look too odd, I use it for mulch. If the ground is really hard, it can be helpful to till initially, but after that, I don't believe it's beneficial because it disrupts the natural soil layers and the critters therein, which are very important for the soil to be healthy, and negatively affects the drainage. The microscopic critters on up to worms and such are all that is needed to distribute the particles of decomposing OM to where they are naturally intended to be, which is where they are most useful to plants. That's why the ground in a forest is so wonderful - spongy, moist but well drained, fertile, sweet-smelling. Nobody tills, the falling leaves and sticks are naturally decomposed and the particles distributed throughout the soil layers. I've found the improvement in being able to dig in these areas as soon as the 2nd year to be dramatic, no thoughts that "It's too hard to dig here unless I till." This is an extremely ugly thing happening in the front yard, but it will be pretty. Very nerve-wracking the 1st time, but I know it works and is worth doing. ... since writing this a few weeks ago, I've outlined what will be my new garden bed out front with landscape timbers, and dumped various organic matter there, as I get it. You can tell now that there is a plan, it's not ugly anymore, just boring, and that it will look good at some point in the future. |

We went at lunch with a group of 6. Our appetizers: Dumplings are opened, cut in half. They were warm/cold. The crispy beef was ice cold. Gross. The entrees only come with white or brown rice. We ordered a pork fried rice for the table and it was ok. The shrimp fried rice was just white rice with some shrimp. This place is over-priced for cold, not very tasty food. Mr. Chow blows it out of the water. Never again Mr. K. Good thing it was company expense account. Yuk.

I always like to mention something positive; the Vegetarian Purse entree was excellent. Inventive, not unhealthy, and well-flavored. Everything else, starting with cold noodles with sesame sauce, was almost without flavor, unless you count red spice a flavor. I am a big fan of spicy food, and Indian food, and in general nuance, but you know when the chef is just mailing it in when heat from spice is the only ingredient and flavor in the dish. Truly a disappointing experience food-wise and service-wise. I am mystified as to how this place stays open other than corporate accounts. The service was surly and while food coming to the table was slow, interactions with the waiter were hurried as he was too annoyed to have to serve people. The atmosphere in the restaurant was one you find seldom these days, plush pink seating, a large space that still feels intimate, and appropriate music. Oh and the bathrooms were excellent, private with marble and the whole works. So unless you eat out for the purpose of visiting a beautiful bathroom and hanging out in a cool atmosphere and do not intend on actually eating good food, would not recommend at all. There are many other exemplary places in Manhattan for fantastic Chinese food at half these prices and a way better experience.

From the minute you are seated you know this will not be an ordinary dining experience. Service, food, atmosphere all perfect. You truly get what you pay for!

too many things wrong here...was hoping it was a version of Bill Hongs or Dewey Wongs...but just an over priced restaurant serving poorly prepared food with a high price tag...skip it.
Posted by Lisa on 11/20/2011
Where to start, Look beautiful but thats were the good comments end. I could sum it up in 1 words overpriced. We ordered 2 starters, mains and a bottle of win,. the bill came to $130. I reckon we were in and out in an hour. Satay chicken was missing a vital ingredient, the satay. The dumplings got praised by my husband. Can not remember what we had for mains so I think that shows how uninspiring they were. We had been here years ago and had a lovely evening, however will never return. My advise to would-be customers is dont. Your wallet will be alot lighter and you will feel cheated.

Maha Home Minister RR Patil said that accused in the alleged rape and murder of 3 minor sisters in Bhandara district will be brought to book soon.
Maharashtra Police has formed teams to pursue different lines of investigation and track the rapists and murderers of three minor sisters in Bhandara, government told the Lok Sabha on Tuesday.
Home Secretary R K Singh expressed regret to Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde for gaffe of disclosing names of victims of Bhandara rape incident in Rajya Sabha over which Minister faced embarrassment.
The police investigation into the rape and murder of three minor sisters at Murmadi village in Bhandara district of Maharashtra has not made a headway even after a fortnight.
Left parties boycotted Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman P J Kurien by staging walkout to protest his presiding over the proceedings of the House when it was debating Bhandara rape incident in Maharashtra.
Sushilkumar Shinde said teams have been formed to pursue different lines of investigation.
While making a statement in Parliament on the Bhandara rape case, Sushilkumar Shinde on Friday revealed the identities of the three victims.
A fact-finding team of National Human Rights Commission, led by commission member Nirmala Sawant-Prabhawalkar, visited Murwadi village in Lakhani taluka where 3 minor sisters were killed after rape.
As many as 12 police teams have been formed to investigate the case, but besides interrogating several suspects, they continue to be clueless.
Even a week after three minor sisters were allegedly raped and murdered in East Maharashtra district of Bhandara, culprits remain at large as police are struggling to achieve a breakthrough.
In the wake of outrage over the alleged rape and murder of three minor girls in Maharashtra, the Centre on Thursday sought from the state government all details of the gruesome incident.
National Human Rights Commission on Thursday issued a notice to Maharashtra government asking it to submit a report on the alleged rape and murder of three minor sisters in Bhandara district.

Oxford B-School's New 1+1 MBA Program
Posted by: Alison Damast on November 18, 2011
The University of Oxford's Saïd Business School is launching its own version of the dual degree MBA, a program they've dubbed the "1+1 MBA Program," the school announced this week. Starting next fall, students will have the option of tacking an extra year onto their studies, allowing them to specialize in an area that will pertain to their future career, while earning an additional master's degree. For now, four departments at Oxford are participating in the 1+1 Program: the School of Geography and the Environment, the Department of Education, the Oxford Internet Institute, and the Department of Computer Science.
Allowing a large number of students to customize a multi-year degree program is a significant step forward for both Oxford and Saïd. Previously, the school typically offered this type of opportunity only to its Rhodes Scholars, school administrators said in a press release.
In order to participate in the program, students need to apply and be accepted to both the MBA program and the master's program. Most students will undertake the specialization during the first year of the program, followed by the MBA program the following year, the school said. In between the two years, students will be required to do an internship in their field of interest. This part of the program is particularly interesting because unlike American students, most MBA students in Europe don't get the opportunity to do an internship while pursuing an MBA because of the short duration - typically one year - of the program. Participating in this program could give MBA students in this program more of an edge in the job market, and also make them more marketable to employers because of their expertise in a field outside general management.
The program is one of the first major initiatives that the school has announced since Peter Tufano, a former Harvard professor, took over as dean in July. We spoke with him last winter, shortly after his appointment was announced, to discuss his vision for the school. During the interview, he said he was excited about collaborations between the business school and other schools on campus.
"It is a world-class university with a young business school that still has a little bit of growth left in it. There is all sorts of exciting potential waiting to be realized," Tufano said last January.
It will be interesting to follow Tufano and see what other changes he unveils at Oxford in the coming year. For now, the "1+1 MBA Program" seems like a promising start.

Curvaceous Light Stage House in Hiroshima Makes the Most of an Awkward Lot
Posted By Tafline Laylin On February 27, 2012 @ 11:10 am In Architecture | No Comments
As with all things Japanese, the stout Light Stage House is a study in elegance and minimalism [5]. The kitchen is compact and the interior furnishings have been built into the architecture which maximizes space and establishes a sense of gentle order and simplicity while the spiral staircase [6] inside combined with the curved walls give this home an inviting sense of movement.
The bedrooms are downstairs and the living areas are upstairs. This intervention ensures that the family can rendevouz on the rooftop terrace and establish a connection with the city beyond at the same time that light pours into what would otherwise have been a dark expanse. The result is an unusual but striking home that has a gentle environmental footprint [7].

Nutrient to Know: Thiamin
by Dana Angelo White in Nutrients to Know, May 26, 2011This water-soluble nutrient can be found in a variety of foods, including some popular picnic fare. Here's what you need to know about thiamin, plus how to get your daily dose — just in time for grilling season.
What is it?
Also known as vitamin B1, thiamin is commonly found in many plant and animal foods like whole grains, beans, fish, pork and enriched pasta. It's also found in small amounts in fruits and vegetables. Because it's available in so many foods, supplements typically aren't necessary. Thiamin is often found in multi-vitamins, but luckily there's no risk of toxic effects from taking in to much.
Why is it good for you?
The body relies on thiamin to help turn the carbohydrates you eat into energy. Since carbs are the body's preferred fuel, getting proper thiamin is a must! This vitamin also helps maintain a healthy nervous system.
Not getting enough can cause poor appetite, depression and muscle pain. Long-term deficiency can cause severe damage to the heart and nervous system in a condition known as beriberi.
Where can I find it?
The daily recommendation for this vitamin is 1.5 milligrams per day. Try some of these tasty sources, listed from most to least of your daily needs:
4.5 ounce grilled pork chop = 0.7 milligrams (47%)
3 ounces grilled tuna – 0.4 milligrams (27%)
1 cup cooked pasta = 0.4 milligrams (27%)
3 ounces grilled salmon 0.2 milligrams (13%)
1/2 cup black beans = 0.2 milligrams (13%)
1 whole-wheat hamburger bun = 0.1 milligrams (7%)
1 cup diced melon = 0.04 milligrams (6%)
