Constructing a national broadband network (NBN) is a nationbuilding project on the scale of freeways and railway. Like most grand schemes, it requires vision and promises benefits to consumers into the future.
Anthony Albanese is now the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy. His department told CHOICE that the Rudd Labor government sees the national broadband network as essential infrastructure, like electricity and water.
It's clear that the NBN is one of the election battlegrounds and voters are faced with a choice between two different plans:
While both sides of politics agree the network is needed, the scope, timing and cost of their respective plans are different.
There's also been criticism of both plans. The NBN rollout has been criticised for delays and the use of contractors. Yet others say those who benefit from maintaining the copper network and supplying ADSL technology present obstacles to a complete fibre rollout.
The federal government has been building a broadband network using fibre for the majority of premises around the country, and fixed wireless or satellite for the rest.
Fibre to the premises (FTTP)
Fibre to the node (FTTN)
Compare the speeds of the FTTP and FTTN networks at howfastisthenbn.com.au and howfastisthenbnreally.com.au.
Receive FREE email updates of our latest tests, consumer news and CHOICE marketing promotions.
The competing Labor and Coalition NBN plans are based on the same technology – fibre cables to deliver the internet – but there are significant differences between the scope of the networks.
In technical terms, Labor has a more ambitious plan to run fibre cable all the way to the home or premises (FTTP); it will cover 93% of dwellings in more than 1000 towns and cities across the country. It is already building satellite and fixed wireless connections for remote areas.
Anyone living in a rural area will know that fast, affordable broadband has been a long time coming, whereas city dwellers already have relatively fast broadband in most areas. The NBN currently being built will help rural consumers catch up with the services and convenience of broadband.
Tony Windsor, the independent member for the federal seat of New England in northern NSW, has been a supporter of the NBN because of the benefits he says it can bring to rural and regional Australia.
"It could be a paradigm change for people in rural areas," he argues. "It can negate the issue of distance and scale of providing internet services for people living in the country. It can bring the benefits of cost effectiveness of doing business in the country with the lifestyle benefit of rural areas."
By contrast, the Coalition's plan is to run fibre to a node (FTTN), or street box, in most areas, while continuing to use the copper phone line (as is done now with ADSL) or pay TV hybrid fibre-coaxial cables to connect the internet to the house. It will continue with the satellite and fixed wireless plan for remote areas. A second stage, at some future time, would see fibre extended to the premises eventually.
Malcolm Turnbull, the Coalition's communications spokesperson, claims "the important thing about the Coalition's policy is that we have not mandated one single technology and are committed to investing as efficiently as possible to maximise benefit to end users of the network."
The maximum speed over the network will be lower under this plan. It promises a minimum download speed of 25Mbps by 2016 in all areas of the country, and 50Mbps by 2019 for 90% of wired connections.
It's planning to use "vectoring" - which can potentially minimise interference between signals on different pairs of wire in the cables that run from the phone exchange to households - to improve speed over the phone wires. However, the plan makes no mention of upload speed, and the Coalition hasn't said whether upload speeds will increase.
Under the Coalition plan, individuals who want to connect fibre to their premises from the node would need to pay for that connection themselves. The cost has been estimated at several thousand dollars, but it would depend on the distance and physical environment.
Every day there are more reasons to use the internet, and this is driving our need for a fast, reliable country-wide broadband network. In the future, more critical services will be accessed online, and equity demands that all households be capable of connecting to a reliable, fast network at the same time. This can only be achieved with a complete fibre network.
A partial fibre network that relies on copper wires severely limits speed and capacity and leaves the network unfinished and reliant on ageing technology. Fibre that runs to a node requires a large number of powered boxes that will feature prominently on the streetscape. It will also mean that money must be spent on maintaining the phone lines, and eventually running fibre the last distance and replacing street-level node boxes.
A complete fibre network is technically superior and will be able to handle data demands - which will soon move beyond a zettabyte a year globally. It will foster innovation and underpin critical e-services, which are needed to manage growing expenditures such as health.
Choice spoke to politicians and experts to get their take on the competing visions for our national broadband network. There's general consensus that we need a fast, reliable broadband network that will outlive the copper network and take us into the future.
Technical experts agree that a complete fibre network is technically superior and is the best way to create a network that will foster innovation and new e-services well into the future.
Department of broadband, communications and the digital economy
"Labor's NBN is a world-class communications system, which will serve Australia's broadband needs now and into the future. Australians will have a clear choice at the next election – fibre under Labor, copper under the Coalition."
Malcolm Turnbull MP, Shadow Minister for Communications and Broadband
"Our plan will ensure people are able to access better broadband sooner and much more affordably. It is prudent to invest money today where it will be most productive – and, if upgrades are needed in 10 or 20 years' time, to utilise the advances in technology to ensure investment is most efficient."
Senator Scott Ludlam, Greens spokesperson for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy
"Labor's proposal is vastly superior to the Opposition's part privatised patchwork, which will require the installation of up to 80,000 powered cabinets and entrench a two-tier telecommunications network."
Tony Windsor, Member for New England
"I think it's the most defining piece of infrastructure we'll see this century. It is an economic booster and cost arguments are ludicrous when you consider potential savings from e-services and innovation."
Paul Budde, independent telecommunications analyst
"It's a vision thing and if your vision is to provide infrastructure for e-health, tele-education and the economic and social benefits of this, you'd have to agree that fibre to the home (FTTP) is the ultimate technology."
Mark Gregory, engineering academic at RMIT and columnist
"A FTTP network would facilitate innovation, ensure that Australia can compete in the worldwide digital economy and ensure that regional and remote Australia are not left behind."
Do we all really need fibre?
Yes. We need increased download speeds, less traffic shaping and far better backhaul capacity in Australia to provide improved quality of service for the applications that we use now and into the future.
How do you measure the cost?
The cost can be projected forward to 2020, 2025 or 2030, because fibre will last well into the future.
How useful is a fibre to the node (FTTN ) network?
The copper infrastructure is at the end of its life, and any FTTN network would require maintenance costs and vectoring technology. The FTTP network has a 100-year lifespan, whereas the copper network was a 50-year system that is already beyond end of life.
Should the FTTP NBN use existing networks to save on cost?
This should only be an interim measure while FTTP is being built. It could utilise fibre networks that go to dwellings, fibre that connects to internal VDSL or ethernet, such as in some of the large apartment and office buildings in major cities.
How long will the copper wires last?
Experts say the copper network is already 10 years past its projected life. It could last decades but the maintenance costs will increase over time. Already, the cost is more than $1 billion per annum.
Fibre is like a freeway for moving the internet quickly and reliably – and a complete fibre network puts almost everyone in the same lane. By contrast, phone lines are like a patchy road built last century.
Fibre is faster because internet data is sent as pulses of light emitted from a laser along fibre cables, whereas copper wires transmit electrical currents that slow with distance and can suffer interference.
Optical fibres can be bundled together as cable, and carry a signal as light further and with less disruption than copper wire. Current technology means that speeds of 1TB per second is achievable and this could go higher with further developments.
The cost of plans on the NBN will be about the same as ADSL plans today, and most consumers won't have to pay for extra phone line rental. Wholesale NBN prices are set by NBN Co and are fixed for five years. The retail prices will be determined by internet providers and include data limits.
Data allowances will be more generous and currently range from 40GB up to 1 terabytes (TB) per month to recognise that people will use more data on the faster, more reliable fibre network.
Around the world, Australia is one of a number of countries building a fibre network to the door.

POSTED: Tuesday, August 6, 2013 - 4:31pm
UPDATED: Tuesday, August 6, 2013 - 4:46pm
Texas (KETK) — After failing to come to an agreement during two special sessions and one regular session, Ia dedcision was reached Monday night on how to pay for repairing our Texas roads. District 6 State Representative, Matt Schaefer says, "Voters are going to have a chance to approve diverting some of the oil and gas tax revenue away from the rainy day fund and towards roads."
Currently about 75% of tax revenue from oil and gas is earmarked for the Rainy Day fund, or as Schaefer calls it the "Texas savings account."
During the November 2014 election voters will have a chance to pass a constitutional amendment to the Texas constitution in order to give lawmakers the ability to do manipulate the rainy day fund and, as Schaefer explains, the "over flow" into the fund will go to toward the debt owed to the Texas Department of Transportation.
Schaefer says, "What we've done now is we've given the legislature the ability to turn the dial to say 'what's a healthy amount in the rainy day fund?' and if it gets to that amount then we can spill over into roads." Schaefer says this is a step in the right direction, yet it's not a long term solution.
In a phone interview with District 1 Senator, Kevin Eltife, says this is a short term fix because Texas is indebted to TxDOT to the tune of 4 billion dollars, and Eltife says, this plan would only cover a funding portion of that debt, "This will solve about 20 percent of the problem, it is a step in the right direction, but we need to be clear this is not going to solve all of our transportation problems"
The plan also requires TxDOT to cut $100 million in spending and "efficiencies" during the 2014-15 year to do their part in decreasing future debt and spending.

The Photographs of William S. Burroughs
In a recent post I mentioned the January opening of the new photography exhibition Taking Shots: The Photography of William S. Burroughs. I've just received a copy of the catalog and I'm planning a review of the volume in an upcoming post or on an episode of Coincidence Control Network.
In the meantime, here is a very insightful little overview of the show featuring the curators at The Photographers Gallery, London. While Burroughs' paintings are well-known, his work as a photographer is just beginning to be examined and understood. This interview was shot during the installation of the exhibition and it reveals Burroughs' work behind the camera to be both an extension of the cut-up techniques he developed with the artist and writer Brion Gysin, and the even earlier aesthetic lessons Bill learned as a boy studying the flower arrangements his mother created for their St. Louis home.

We get it: You go to the beach, and the only exercises you're looking to do are a few twelve-ounce Corona curls. But there are two good reasons to make it your temporary sweat zone. For one, a beach burn means breathing fresh air, not your gym's sweat-fog. And two: You'll actually get a better workout.
"The resistance you get from moving through heavy, uneven sand takes your endurance and strength to a whole new level," says certified personal trainer (and lifeguard) Jimmy Minardi, who's gone so far as to create an entire beach regimen for his East Hampton clientele. "You're burning more calories, and the unstable surfaces strengthen muscles and soft tissue around your joints, which helps prevent injuries.
That said, working out on the beach can also increase your chance of looking like a preening jackass—nothing screams "I'm desperate for attention" like doing wind sprints during peak tanning hours. So Rule 1: Exercise in the morning, when the coast is clear save for dog-walking grandmas and sun-saluting yoga girls. And Rule 2: Be quick. This is vacation. Start Minardi's three-pronged full-body workout at 9 A.M. and you'll be done by 9:30. Then go park your ass on a blanket.
Decline Press-up
Basically, it's a push-up with your feet propped up on something: a large rock, a dune, your cooler, whatever. Do ten regular push-ups (keep your back flat). Then do ten triceps-burning diamond push-ups (with hands together so your thumbs and index fingers touch, Jay Z-style). Feeling badass? Do ten alternating one-arm, one-leg push-ups (your right leg and left arm outstretched, then vice versa).
Jumping Jacks
What is this, kindergarten PE? Not so fast—step into the surf until it's up to your ankles, then do thirty jumping jacks. Hurts, right? This is a full-body burn. Now do thirty squat jacks. (As you land, drop into a deep squat, then jump.) Unlike kindergarten, here you're allowed to swear.
Donkey Kicks
Return to your decline-push-up spot. Put your hands on the rock/dune/cooler with your legs extended so that this time your body's on an incline. Without breaking your elbows, hop forward so your knees tuck into your chest and you're crouched in a ball. Then kick back out into a full extension. You should land like you started: legs out, back flat, neck straight. Do two sets of ten. Then go to work on your tan.

Way back in my distribution days, when we started servicing conventional supermarkets that wanted to bring in "natural sets" for the first time, nearly all of the brands we wholesaled were ecstatic at the chance to dramatically increase their sales. This included both food and supplement manufacturers. There were, however, a few vendors—supplement companies—that didn't want their products available through a "non-natural" channel and asked us to keep their products out of those supermarket sets. We complied.

I just realized why I'm still a little-fat after all these time. It's not because I've not been working out or I've not been watching what I eat. Well maybe, I've been watching a little too much. But the bulk of the problem lies in me not making enough dough. As in ka-ching dough. I think I'd be a skinny rich monkey by now if I knit dough for a living. Look at Ah Pa and all his baker friends. 'Nuff said. Anyway back to my poor story, did you know that eating healthily can be very expensive? And this poor lil' fat monkey isn't able to afford such luxuries. At least not for every lunch. It's appalling how a bowl of greens and fruits cost more than a bowl of noodles cooked in a broth that's been boiling for 6 hours. Go figure! It's easy to see why I choose my carbs over salads. But, come pay day and I feel like handing over my hard earned cash, I'd just head over to EcoGreen Organic Restaurant @ BAKTI.
Nestled within the lush greenery at the foot of Kiara Hills, this cafe/restaurant offers its customers discerning healthy and flavourful organic dishes in a cozy environment with a resort-like ambience. "A place where the mind, body and spirit is celebrated, alongside with mother Nature," says its website. I have to agree, having a meal here takes you away from the bustling business of the day. Its simple kampung-styled decor and chill Balinese ambient music offers a relaxed atmosphere, making it very easy forget the time and day.
I found out about this place when my company hired them to cater for an organic-themed event. This restaurant part of a family of organic food outlets run by EcoGreen Farm Sdn Bhd and is led by engineer-turned-organic advocate Wong Kai Yuen and wife Sherene Soong as head chef. Sherene's menu comprises of mostly simple Malaysian favourites and some Western inspired dishes. All made with high quality organic and natural ingredients with their culinary policy of no MSG used, no microwaving, no trans-fats, artificial preservatives, artificial colouring or flavour enhancers used in their cooking. Never knew a whole long list of "No's" can be so appealing.
Anyway, the best way to eat here is to share your food. Start with the popular Lettuce Wrap (RM13.90), which is pretty much like a Ju Hu Char. Strips of steamed turnips, carrot, beancurd and fish cake wrapped in romaine leaves and complemented by the unique miso and dragonfruit sauce. There's a vegetarian option where the fish cake is replaced by mushroom. I couldn't resist ordering the Refreshing Organic Charcoal Noodles (RM15.90) once again. The stark black al dante bamboo charcoal ramen is tossed in a molasses and citrus vinaigrette dressing and topped with chili flakes, cashew nuts, tofu triangles, sesame seeds, seaweed strips and a side of salad. This dish is served cold. Don't let the blackness of the noodles turn you off, it's actually contains activated carbon which promotes better blood circulation. Both of these dishes contains no onion or garlic.
My lunch companion ordered the Roasted Herb-Garlic Organic Chicken with Quinoa (RM28.90), which uses free-range organic chicken that's oven roasted in a herb garlic marinate. Served with a carrots and potatoes and a serving of quinoa. According to the trusted Wikipedia, quinoa is a cereal-like grain originated from Andean regions of South America and was highly prized by the Incas for its high protein content. Unlike wheat or rice, quinoa contains a balanced set of essential amino acids for humans and is gluten-free, making it easy to digest. And because of all these characteristics, quinoa is being considered a possible crop in NASA's Controlled Ecological Life Support System for long-duration manned spaceflights! Back to the dish, apart from the interesting quinoa and the homemade brown gravy, this dish was a non-event.
Being healthy doesn't mean No Desserts. The Organic Banana Nut Cake (RM7.00) had no eggs, no margerine, no butter, no milk, no cheese and only organic ingredients. I'm kinda surprised that it's even considered a cake. Somehow it doesn't quite cut it for me. I preferred the golden Steamed Pumpkin Rolls (RM7.00), which looks like kueh bengka and topped with freshly grated coconut. They use no milk or eggs in this dessert and it was bursting with pumpkin sweetness. I like.
At the end of the meal, ask for a chilled glass of Organic Passion Fruit and Organic Honey (RM9.90) to wash everything down with.
The split between two people for lunch is a hefty RM50 per pax. That's rather heavy for lunch everyday. It's ironic how one needs green to enjoy some greens. Having said that, I guess if you're just here for a main meal and a glass of water, it's actually quite a healthy option. I've already got my eyes set on the Lui Cha next.

The Rolling Stones Return To Hyde Park 44 Years Later
Monday, July 8, 2013
ust over 44 years after beginning the second era of their live career at London's Hyde Park, the Rolling Stones returned on Saturday (July 6th) to the legendary open air venue. The Stones, who first played the Park on July 5th, 1969, had intended the show -- which was their first in two years -- to be the formal introduction of new guitarist Mick Taylor. Back then, with co-founder Brian Jones drowning on July 3rd, the concert quickly changed gears to serve as a memorial to Jones. Saturday's show in front of 65,000 fans was a far cry from the band's 1969 gig, which saw the Stones unrehearsed, horribly out of tune, and still unsure as how to play to a massive crowd -- which was believed to top out at around 200,000.
On Saturday, the Stones opened with 1981's "Start Me Up" -- which has usually been performed later in the band's recent shows and peppered the setlist with such deep cut favorites as "Bitch" -- with Guy Clark, Jr., "All Down The Line," and "Beast Of Burden." Pollstar reported that at one point Jagger took to the stage wearing a white frock similar to the one he wore back at the band's 1969 appearance, joking with the crowd that it was, "just something I found in the back."
Mick Jagger told us that the nightly variable of the live audience is what keeps performing a kick for him: "You never really know what's gonna happen. You never know what the audience is gonna be like, you never know how they're gonna behave, you, you expect them to do certain things, but they don't always do that, and you don't always do the same things that you've done the night before. That's what brings you into live playing, what makes live playing so interesting."
Although the Stones' second new song, "One More Shot" has gotten the axe for the band's festival appearances, their most recent single, "Doom And Gloom" has survived the changing setlist and remains a crowd favorite. Keith Richards told us that the song is indicative of the newfound energy in the band: "The classic Stones bit comes fairly easily when you put the boys back together. There's. . . the sound is -- I mean, after all, it's ours. I think Mick did a great job with the lyrics. And at the same time, I think there's a feeling of enthusiasm with these five years off that we've got a lot of stuff bottled up, y'know, and ready to go again, y'know?"
The Rolling Stones will wrap their 50 & Counting Tour dates on Saturday, July 13th with a return to Hyde Park.

On 5th May 1983, a tanker collided with a chemical
storage tank. 500 m3 of carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane
and 1.1.2-trichloroethane were released into the Pinheirinho and
Avecuia rivers (Brazil).

area. In 5 days, 20 m3 of substances were recovered. Dredging operations
removed a layer of between 0.5 and 1 metre of mud from the bottom
of the lake. The decontamination system for the mud was made up
of two 50 m³ drains with walls at a 45° angle.

ColoradoBiz's Made in Colorado Manufacturing Awards Recognize Leading Colorado Manufacturers
The ColoradoBiz Made in Colorado Manufacturing Forum and Awards celebrated 250 Colorado Manufacturers on April 23, 2014 at the McNichols Building in Denver.
The list of Colorado-made products includes spacecraft, beer and burritos – to name a few. And the state's manufacturers are an increasingly nimble lot.
This year, six manufacturers were honored:
Manufacturer of the Year:
Small Biz — Display Devices
This year's Small Biz Manufacturer of the Year went to Display Devices, a company with major customers including Coca Cola, Disney's Magic Kingdom, Hitachi, Panasonic and Cirque du Soleil. For nearly a quarter century, this Golden-based manufacturer has taken projects from initial concept renderings to metal bending, software writing, designing and building…all under a single roof. Its commercial audio-visual equipment is suited for environments from boardrooms to theme parks.
Medium Biz — Circle Graphics
Circle Graphics has earned recognition as the world's largest producer of large-format digital graphics, serving brands from Chevrolet to Live Nation, Pfizer to Motel 6. The business has found ways to reduce costs and lessen its carbon footprint by decreasing the use of gas-guzzling machinery for transport and installation. The cost savings has allowed the company to lower its prices — leading to industry disruption. In its unassuming Longmont-based manufacturing facility, you can find nearly 100 grand format printers, custom automated finishing equipment and coating capabilities to produce recyclable materials up to 16 feet wide. Most recently, Circle Graphics expanded into the consumer market with Eazl, a fast and affordable service to put digital images on canvas for personal use.
Large Biz — Ball Corp.
Founded in 1880 and known as the largest producer of recyclable beverage cans in the world, along with its catalogue other foods and household products, space systems and other technologies, Ball Corporation's rich history, commitment to sustainability, and ability to deliver value to stakeholders does not go unnoticed in the state of Colorado and around the world.
Manufacturing Executive of the Year: Pete Neidecker, Mountainside Medical
Our 2014 Manufacturing Executive of the Year represents an individual who not only understands, but actionably commits himself and his organization to the growth of the manufacturing sector in Colorado. With his investment in educational resources at Front Range Community College, he takes real responsibility to bolster the future workforce. Moreover, by assuring the expectations of his medical device customers are met and with great value for his employees, Pete Neidecker alongside his wife has built a truly lasting organization.
Manufacturing Innovator of the Year: Steelhead Composites
This year's Manufacturing Innovator of the Year is a forward-thinking and moving organization, which started walking the walk in late 2012. Steelhead Composites catered its products to market needs and in fact, anticipating needs before they are even articulated, the Golden-based organization uses advanced composite materials to produce high pressure and lightweight accumulators for hybrid engines. These products serve the electric vehicle and energy markets and truly represent advanced manufacturing, redefining the industry category for the future.
Manufacturing Brand Builder of the Year: Sierra Nevada Corp.
Our Brand Builder of the Year goes to a company that's effectively putting Colorado on the map and out of this world with its manufacturing efforts. Recently ranked as one of Fast Company magazine's "Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Space;" Sierra Nevada is continuing to chase dreams, with current projects and contributions to the commercial spaceflight industry.
The MADE 25 finalists included:
Ball Corp. Metal Beverage Packaging Division
Birko Corp.
Circle Graphics
Colorado Cider Company
Crescent Moon Snowshoes
Display Devices
EVOL Foods
Falcon UAV
Fulsus USA
Guerrilla Gravity
Hammond's Candies

Seattle Wins Super Bowl XLVIII, Malcolm Smith named MVP
By: Kristian O'Hara
One of the motivational phrases for the Seahawks this year was "Leave No Doubt." Sunday night they demonstrated that mantra to the fullest.
Listener Supported Public Media from Fordham University
By: Kristian O'Hara
One of the motivational phrases for the Seahawks this year was "Leave No Doubt." Sunday night they demonstrated that mantra to the fullest.
Mike Tirico joined Matt Moro and I on Thursday live from Media Row to discuss the upcoming Super Bowl matchup.
Legendary Giants center Shaun O'Hara may not be participating in this year's Super Bowl, but he's still enjoying spending the week in New York. O'Hara, a Super Bowl champion himself with the New York Giants, gave his inside look into what the week is like for a player.
O'Hara retired after the 2010 Super Bowl, but he still has his passion for the game. WFUV Sports' Nick Logerfo caught up with the center at Media Day earlier this week.
To listen to the interview, click the link below.
On Tuesday, while many flocked to the Broncos and Seahawks media days, the Fox Broadcasting team took a trip to Radio Row.
Joe Buck, the Emmy-winning play-by-play announcer for Super Bowl XLVIII, sat down with a few members of the media to give his insights into the upcoming matchups, how he's preparing for the big game, and how Peyton Manning and himself aren't that different.
The Seattle Seahawks arrived at Newark Airport on Sunday night and then boarded buses en route to the Westin Hotel in Jersey City, where the team will be staying this week. There were many Seattle fans lined up outside the hotel, screaming as the Seahawks arrived in coach buses.

Top 10 Summer Vegetables
Posted By Worker Bee On July 8, 2008 @ 12:36 pm In Diet,Health,Nutrition,Top 10 Lists | 18 Comments
While the wild world of global trading means that we now have access to many fruits and vegetables year round, somehow fruits and vegetables just taste better when you purchase them in season and literally days after its been picked!
The following is a list of vegetables (and a couple fruits that couldn't be missed!) that will be hot this summer season:
A fixture of many-a-bistro salad, arugula is an excellent source of folate and vitamin C as well as a good source of calcium. Although arugula is typically mildly flavored, larger leaf varieties can have a more peppery, almost hot taste than the smaller, softer leaf variety, so choose your arugula accordingly! Arugula is typically best served in a salad with olives, hard-boiled eggs, onions and salty cheeses and is most flavorful when paired with lemon juice or vinaigrettes with a strong acid content, such as aged red wine.
Although available year round, California's Hass avocados are at their peak in the summer months! Touted most frequently for their high quantity of good fat (or oleic, mononunsaturated and therefore heart-healthy fat), avocados are also an excellent source of potassium, folate and vitamins C and B6, and are considered a good source of thiamin, riboflavin, niacin and magnesium. In addition, avocados also contain a compound that helps with the absorption of healthy carotenoids from vegetables, making them a welcome addition to a seasonal chopped salad (or when combined with store-bought salsa for a quickie guacamole) To pick the perfect avocado, look for those that have a uniform and unblemished skin that gives gently when pressed.
Although technically a fruit, blueberries are just too darn delicious to pass up for the summer season. Relatively low in calories and carbohydrates, blueberries boast a ridiculously high level of antioxidants that protect against free-radical activity that can cause cataracts, glaucoma, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, peptic ulcers, heart disease and cancer. In addition, blueberries also boast a high level of vitamin C, manganese and dietary fiber. When selecting blueberries, look for those that are firm, deeply hued and are stored in containers that allow them to move freely and do not appear moist (both of which can lead to premature molding). Store in a cold, dry place and wash only when ready to serve as moisture can damage the berries or spur the degeneration process. Blueberries can be eaten alone, added to breakfast smoothies or protein shakes, sprinkled on top of a salad or served as a desert with fresh cream.
A member of the squash family, cucumber's high water content makes it a refreshing (and hydrating) addition to summer menus. Although comprised primarily of water [7], cucumber is also a good source of vitamin C and silica, which is important for connective tissue health and also does wonders for the skin (both when ingested or applied topically to reduce swelling or redness). In addition, the skin of the cucumber is a great source of fiber, potassium and magnesium. When selecting a cucumber, look for slender cucumbers (which are a sign of their tender age) and those with dark green, firm skins. Cucumbers can be added raw to salads, sandwiches, soups or dips and are most flavorful when paired with chives, dill, mint and salt and vinegar.
Although it is almost always assumed that an eggplant would have a purple skin, eggplants can come in just about any shade from black to a near-translucent white (and just about every color in between!) Eggplants are revered for their excellent fiber content as well as several phytonutrients that play an important role in antioxidant activity. Although selecting an eggplant is easy enough – again, just look for those with smooth, taut skin and those that feel heavy for their size –cooking can be a little bit more complicated. If the eggplant is young, the skin is edible, but if it's a little bit older, the skin will taste bitter and is best removed. If this is the case, cut or slice the eggplant, salt it and set it out to "weep" for 20 minutes, a process that will remove any residual bitterness. Eggplant is tasty grilled and seasoned with oregano, salt and pepper or as a casserole when combined with tomatoes, olives, peppers, onions and fresh oregano.
Hot peppers may have made Oprah's list of top super foods (you know how we feel about the term super foods! [8]) but there is a lot to be said for good ol' hot peppers. Chief among its benefits, hot peppers boast a hefty dose of capsaicin, a compound that can alleviate the symptoms of migraine headaches, arthritis, inflammation, gastric ailments (really!), reduce the risk of cancer AND serve as a thermogenic agent to speed metabolic activity. In addition, hot peppers are high in antioxidant carotenes and flavonoids, and contain about twice the amount of vitamin C as oranges. Due to the intense flavor of the peppers, they are best used to spice up everyday soups, stews, chili dishes, stir fries, salads and salsas.
Often referred to as cabbage turnip, this green vegetable looks almost like an oversized radish, complete with a ball-like bulb and bushy sprouting leaves. When selecting a kohlrabi, look for smallish, firm bulbs less than 3 inches in diameter (the larger ones tend to be woody and have a more earthy taste). So why stock up? First, kohlrabi is an excellent source of vitamin C as well as potassium. When raw, it can be added to salads and vegetable platters or served as relish. When cooked, it can be steamed for inclusion in casseroles or hollowed out, stuffed with a meat or vegetable filling and oven baked much like a stuffed pepper.
Although there are different types of mushrooms available year round, summer is the season for chanterelles and porcinis varieties. With a low sodium and fat content and high levels of fiber and riboflavin, niacin, potassium and riboflavin, mushrooms are an excellent way to add bulk to a meal without dramatically changing the nutrition content of foods. When shopping for mushrooms, they should be dry and firm and, if open, should have gills that are intact and appear fresh. Mushrooms will generally keep for several days if stored in a paper bag in a refrigerator and should be cleaned – preferably with a damp cloth – before cooking. Mushrooms can be served raw, added to salads or sautéed, grilled or broiled for inclusion in any number of dishes.
Of all the vegetables in the onion and leek family, shallots have one of the highest concentrations of antioxidants. In addition, they have also shown to have anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergic properties. As such, shallots are associated with a reduction in risk for several cancers, including those affecting the liver and colon as well as heart disease and diabetes. If you're thinking of trading in your regular white onion for a shallot, choose those that are firm and appear dry. When cooking, separate similar to a garlic clove and use as a base for sauces or to add taste and texture to casseroles, stir fries or other dishes where onions are common.
Freshest – and most plentiful – among local growers between May and July, zucchinis are an excellent source of vitamin C and manganese and a good source of dietary fiber, magnesium, vitamin A, potassium, copper, folate, phosphorus, omega-3 fatty acids, protein and several B vitamins. When shopping for zucchini, look for those that resemble a cucumber in size and shape and have a smooth, thin skin that is either green or yellow in color. To enjoy, cut in half, drizzle with oil, salt and pepper and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. If you'd prefer your zucchini raw consider chopping julienne and serving as part of a vegetable platter or add grated to salads, sandwiches and other summer salads.
Our top summer produce picks will change from one summer to the next. In fact, ask us what our top 10 veggie recommendations are next week and we are likely to serve up a different list entirely. There are so many delicious veggie options it is difficult to be too partial to any item for too long.

Cocaine abuse symptoms are baffling because at first cocaine abuse symptoms are subtle and can go unnoticed. Cocaine abuse symptoms grow larger and more noticeable as the cocaine abuse escalates. Cocaine abuse symptoms start off as simple as a normal nosebleed and can become as extreme as cardiac arrest. The final and most obvious cocaine abuse symptom is death. Death is exactly where cocaine abuse will take you and along the way the abuser will encounter many other cocaine abuse symptoms. The addiction to cocaine first infects the way the abuser begins to think. Slowly their life begins to revolve around acquiring more and more of the drug. Obsession is the first cocaine abuse symptom. It is not nearly as noticeable as the other more prominent symptoms of cocaine abuse.
As soon as the cocaine enters the blood stream it begins to take control of the abuser mentally. The person becomes absolutely consumed with the prospect of getting more and more of the drug. This grows larger to the point that the mental obsession begins to manifest itself in the abusers actions. The abuser will begin to do anything to receive more cocaine. They will stoop down to levels they never thought their soul could reach. This includes stealing from loved ones, all the way down the line until they find themselves in jail for a crime they never thought they could commit.
The physical being of the abuser is affected almost instantaneous. The body's chemical makeup adjusts itself in order to acquire the ability to consume cocaine. Therefore from the first ingestion of the chemical the person is hooked physically. The physical aspect of the cocaine abuse symptoms has quite a range of extremes. At first the person will just lose their appetite. This is a more subtle cocaine abuse symptom. Then slowly the septum of the nasal passage is eaten away. Once again this is a symptom only noticed by the abuser themselves. Eventually though, the abuser will become physically ill. This includes stomach cramps, the breaking out in cold sweats, and the increased heart rate, which wears away at the hearts ability to function correctly. All of these physical symptoms lead to the last cocaine abuse symptom-death.

Scotland EH6 6RA
Tel: 44 131 553 3557
Concierge.com's insider take:
Edinburgh's first Michelin star (awarded in 2001, when this place was two years old) appropriately belongs to a native son, Martin Wishart. Having done much to kick-start Edinburgh's fine-dining scene, many would say that Wishart remains at the head of the pack. He trained with two Roux brothers and Marco Pierre White, and while his cooking owes much to France, his ingredients are rooted in Scotland. Menu descriptions such as roast saddle and braised neck of Vementry lamb, dauphine potatoes, port-braised turnip, crosnes (Chinese artichokes), and sprout leaves don't really do justice to the delicate artistry on the plate. The restaurant's decor is plush, from the thick carpets to the plump upholstery of the seating, but touches such as swirling gold wall panels and organically shaped sconces stop it from appearing too formal. In 2011, Wishart opened his city-center venture The Honours, a faster-paced operation with polished brasserie classics.—Jonathan Trew

I found the thin omelettes a bit hard to make, so it was more like piles of mushy egg mix, but still delicious :-)

Toshiba Qosmio X875-Q7390
- Category: Notebook Computers
April 5, 2013
Editor's Rating
- Extremely strong performance
- Blu-ray burner optical drive
- Good-looking 1080p display
- Very good gaming abilities
- Very short Space bar
- Short battery life
The Toshiba Qosmio X875 is a gaming laptop both inside and out thanks to its design and strong internal specs that include an Intel Core i7, 1080p display and 16GB of RAM. The display is also stereoscopic 3D-enabled and it also has a Blu-ray burner, which is a rarity.
The design of the X875 is rather simple with some gaming-esque flares, like the red edges and slick black diamond-textured aluminum exterior. It is rather big and heavy at 16.5 x 10.7 x 1.7-inches and weighs 7.7-pounds.
Toshiba continues the gaming flare with the keyboard, which is backlit with red lighting. The keyboard keys are Toshiba's traditional flat design that both works well and feels good. We did not like the extremely short space bar, which may occasionally throw you off while typing.
Toshiba gives you a large click pad with more than ample room for navigating and performing Windows 8 touch gestures. The touch pad is also outlined in red, which gives it a good look.
One of this laptop's selling points is the 17.3-inch display that has a resolution of 1920 x 1080-pixels. We really liked the display's brightness and vivid colors. Viewing angles were exceptionally wide, which makes multi-person movie watching really easy. Some potential buyers may be disappointed that this display is not a touch screen as the Windows 8 tile interface is much easier to navigate with touch gestures.
Despite that, the display is stereoscopic 3D enabled and requires you to wear glasses. These glasses do tend to darken the image and lessen the quality just a bit.
For ports, the Toshiba Qosmio X875 offers two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, HDMI-out, VGA-out, the usual audio jacks, Ethernet and an SD memory card reader. There is both Bluetooth and 802.11n Wi-Fi wireless connectivity. There's also a Blu-ray burner and DVD+/-RW combo optical drive, which is rare to see.
Our laptop had a configuration that included an Intel Core i7-3630QM (2.4GHz) CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 1TB 5400RPM hard drive, an 8GB solid-state drive and Nvidia GeForce GTX 670 graphics with 3GB of video memory. For the $1600 price tag, you get quite a powerful computer with some hefty specs.
This configuration is extremely fast and performs ahead of other 17-inch Intel Core i7 equipped laptops. Gaming performance is outstanding and will allow you to play any of today's (and tomorrow's) 3D games thanks to the strong-performing Nvidia GTX 670 graphics. With this setup, you can play games at maximum graphics settings without any issue.
Battery life is weak with this system, but that's due to the high-end components. We were able to squeeze out about 1.5-hours, but if you take into account what you're getting, this probably isn't that bad. However compared to the 17-inch laptop category, it does fall short.

Find A Dream LyricsArtist: Motley CrueAlbum: Carved In Stone No one hears the pain All the world's escapes for the insane Judgement day is coming Can we all be saints The justice in this world is all a game Can't we find can't we find a dream Street fights on the corner An abiet daughter's slain The body's on the news is all a fame When somethin' for nothin' is the only way they play We'll never ever see the light of day All the goods and wicked Get on their knees and pray Sins of all their fathers turn away Turn away Can't we find, can't we find a dream

Rumour mill: Facebook to try smartphone again?
By Loh Ving Sung GooglePlus
29 May 2012 - HTC ChaCha Facebook button be darned, Facebook is going to build its own phone (again).
According to the New York Times bits blog, Facebook employees and engineers familiar with the matter said that the social network giant is collecting former Apple engineers who worked on the iPhone and iPad.
A Facebook employee told the Times that Facebook head honcho Mark Zuckerberg 'is worried that if he doesn't create a mobile phone in the near future that Facebook will simply become an app on other mobile platforms'.
This will mark the third time Facebook has been rumoured to be building its own hardware. The rumour started back in 2010 when TechCrunch reported that a Facebook smartphone was in the works. Afterwards, it was reported that Facebook and HTC had entered a partnership to create a smartphone.
Another Facebook employee said that, the numerous tries were because the company initially though that they could come up with its own hardware. Facebook learned it needed to bring in people with experience to build a phone in-house.
" Selepas HTC ChaCha yang dikeluarkan dengan kekunci Facebook khas kini Facebook kembali dengan cadangan untuk mengeluarkan telefonya sendiri. Menurut New York Times bits blog, pekerja dan jurutera Facebook yang arif tentang perkara ini menyatakan bahawa gergasi laman sosial ini sedang mengambil bekas jurutera Apple yang pernah membangunkan iPhone dan iPad. Seorang pekerja Facebbok memberitahu Times bahawa pengasas Facebook iaitu Mark Zuckerberg risau jika beliau tidak melancarkan satu telefon khas dalam masa terdekat, Facebook hanya akan menjadi aplikasi pada platform telefon lain "

Michelangelo had several models made of the St. Peter dome during the time he worked on it. Discovered in an attic and newly restored, these models are now a main attraction at the Vatican Museum. Architects over the centuries have made models to check details in 3D and help clients understand dimensional perspectives. Many architects of renown also collected models, not only for their exquisite workmanship but also for their value as decor in homes and especially offices. AM offers a small but no less fascinating collection of early stair models and dome buildings.

Its a DX1 5'10 x 18 3/16 x 2 3/16 and VL 23.79 litres.
Its a tiny bit to big for me. I usually keep 22.2 to 21 litres under me, so this board over floats me. Darren shaped me this one a few weeks ago. I surfed it once, maybe having 8-9 waves on it till I got over it and went back to my car and got my normal 5'8. If anyone is interested shoot me a message. <br />
