However, with clearing skies and an inversion setting up on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, there is a higher chance for critical low temperatures across the Rogue Valley and other Southwest Valleys west of the Cascades.
A warm-up is in store for Wednesday afternoon and Thursday, as highs jump into the 70's, while a "warm" storm will bring widespread light rain to the region Friday. By the weekend, high pressure and mild weather will bring ample sunshine and temperatures that are above critical levels for our gardens and orchards.

Found this book for £8 in the works and I agree this is great, made the vanilla chiffon cupcakes and only got 18 and 2 were really small, and they did take a while to bake, I thought they were heavy cos of the syrup but everyone else thought they were the best cupcakes I've made! Also make sure you read the recipe properly so you don't end up using marg to make the icing which then doesn't set properly! still tasted good though and I'm looking forward to makiing more from htis book.

Busch Stadium, St. Louis, Missouri
ST. LOUIS -- Hunter Pence lost track of an easy fly ball in the fourth inning. He didn't miss a fat pitch in the 10th.
Pence hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning as the Phillies, after thwarting the St. Louis Cardinals for three straight innings Friday night, won 5-3 for their third consecutive victory."Every win is big, and to get the lead in the 10th inning is huge, no matter how you get the runs across," Pence said. "I don't care if it's a bloop, broken bat, anything, an infield hit."The Phillies survived a fourth inning in which Pence, the right fielder, and Shane Victorino, the center fielder, lost balls in the lights."I didn't see either one," Pence said. "I didn't see his or mine. It's just that twilight time. There's like a good 10 minutes at night where the ball and sky look the same."The winning runs came too late for Cliff Lee, a 17-game winner last season still seeking his first win of 2012."Things happen. You can't really control it as a pitcher," Lee said. "I did have a two-run lead that I let slip away, so that's my fault."Juan Pierre singled to start the 10th against Jason Motte, working his second inning. Pence had been hitless in nine at-bats before lining the St. Louis closer's first pitch over the right-field wall for his team-leading 11th homer. He's 3-for-10 against Motte (3-2) with two homers and three RBIs."It was middle away, but it was up," Motte said. "He's a good fastball hitter, he was able to put the barrel on it and keep it fair."Raul Valdes (2-0), who hadn't won a game since Sept. 15, 2010, before getting the decision in Thursday's 10-9 victory, struck out Tyler Greene and Matt Holliday with two on in the ninth inning to win for the second straight game. Jonathan Papelbon finished for his National League-leading 14th save in 14 chances.The Cardinals missed chances at the go-ahead hit in the seventh, eighth and ninth. Holliday flied out to the left-field wall with a man on to end the seventh, Yadier Molina was thrown out trying to score from first on Matt Adams' two-out double to the right-center gap in the eighth and Holliday struck out with two on to end the ninth, breaking his bat in frustration after slamming it off the plate.Holliday said he didn't get all of a slow curveball on the fly out to the wall. He might have been squeezed on a pitch called a strike during his strikeout."You play a long season, you play a lot of games, you're going to have frustrating nights," Holliday said. "And this was one of them."Second baseman Freddy Galvis had a strong relay to the plate and Carlos Ruiz hung on after Molina crashed into him.Molina said last year he almost "broke my leg" when Ruiz blocked the plate and he tried to slide."I hate to do that, I think this is my first time doing that in my whole career, in my whole life," Molina said. "I hate doing that to another catcher, but sometimes it's part of the game."If it happened to me, I wouldn't say anything bad," he said.Lee, who's 0-2 despite a 2.82 ERA, left after striking out seven in seven innings in a game tied at 3. Lee won 17 games last year, finishing third in the Cy Young balloting.Cardinals starter Kyle Lohse had no walks or strikeouts for the second time in two seasons against the Phillies and against Lee, giving up three earned runs in 6 1/3 innings. He walked none in eight innings in a 4-0 loss at home to Philadelphia last June 22.Lee, who got called third strikes on five of his strikeouts, barely survived the seventh, convincing manager Charlie Manuel to leave him in before Holliday's fly out to the wall.Lee singled for his second hit to start the seventh, and got a good jump on Pierre's double off Mitchell Boggs with one out, scoring easily to tie it. He's tied for the lead among pitchers with six hits and is batting .375.The Cardinals opened the fourth with four straight hits, two of them lost in the lights or the twilight. They scored only once, running into an out when Molina was caught trying for third after Adams' popup dropped between equally bewildered Pence and Victorino for a gift hit.David Freese started the inning with his third career triple, a drive off the top of the center-field wall that Victorino couldn't track, waving his arms while drifting back in the track. Molina's single made it 3-2, but Victorino salvaged some wounded pride when he retrieved the ball after Adams' single and threw out Molina at third."Very big relief," Pence said. "At that point, you pick up the ball and say let's see. We kind of ran into each other, Vic got the ball and threw him out."Jimmy Rollins had an RBI single and another run scored on first baseman Adams' fielding error as the Phillies took a 2-0 lead in the second. Adams and Shane Robinson had consecutive doubles in the bottom of the second and Furcal hit his third homer leading off the third to tie it.Furcal, whose drive appeared to bang off a sign just above the left-field wall, is 3-for-7 against Lee with two homers.Lee has allowed three or fewer runs in all five of his career starts against St. Louis, two of them shutouts.Game notes
The Phillies and Cardinals combined for 33 hits on Thursday, with each team getting 15 or more in a nine-inning game for the first time since May 12, 1935, at League Park in Philadelphia in St. Louis' 10-8 victory. Pepper Martin and Leo Durocher each had three hits for the Cardinals, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. ... One night after a streaker eluded authorities for several minutes, Fredbird, the Cardinals' team mascot, ran across the field minus his uniform to delighted applause. ... Carlos Beltran was not in the original Cardinals lineup, written before he arrived, but talked his way in. Then he went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts. ... Robinson was 2-for-34 with no RBIs in May and 0-for-his-past-16 with runners in scoring position before his RBI double in the second.

Recent Review
by Liz 211
We read a previous review of Zurich airport recommending Starbucks as a good place to sleep, due to the double couches that are left out during the night. So we went and staked out some awesome double couches and got comfortable. But as soon as the main lights went out, we became surrounded by some very questionable people. Two old homeless men on one side who had cans of bourbon, were snoring loudly then yelling at one another for snoring, and at one stage started harassing other young travelers trying to sleep there, grabbing them and yelling - and security was no where to be seen. On the other side, a homeless woman who smelled strongly of vomit. In the end, we gave up our great couches and went to look for another spot. We found another starbucks closer to the check in area that also had couches - they weren't as comfortable as the first ones, but we slept so much better! There weren't any dodgy looking people around there either. I would recommend THAT Starbucks.

Maybe you think loading up a prowler or a sled is not for you? You might think sled training is too advanced or out of your reach. This post will help you see that anyone can use a sled and have amazing results.
I've been known to be a conditioning junkie, and Sled training ranks high among my favorite conditioning tools and workouts. Some days I utilize it as a finisher while other days sled training is my entire training effort.
In the past, Sled Training was more seen in Strongman competitions and training for athletes. Over the past several years, it has grown to be more popular among the general fitness population because its effective, fun and versatile in nature. Not to mention, it's easy to learn and apply, it's safe for all levels and it's empowering to accomplish a killer challenge!
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…
I fancy sled training for so many reasons including the departure from reps and focusing on the basic task of getting from point A to point B. Whether with a training partner or on your own, sled training brings out the competitive side because really, who stops short of the finish line when you can actually see it within your physical steps?!
Additional points in favor of Sled training include:
- Easy-To-Use – Whether a beginner to training or an advanced athlete, sled training mimics very natural patterns therefore the learning curve is low. People are able to pick up sled training naturally. Also, never too young or too old, sled training is completely modifiable-any age can do it.
- Joint Friendly - Because so many muscles are used in the movement and your joints go through a normal range of motion, sled training is very joint friendly. It enables one to put forth maximum effort with minimal stress on the joints. The sled is a fantastic alternative for those looking to challenge legs but aren't necessarily able to squat, lunge, directly load the spine or perform any other potentially aggravating movements.
- High Energy Expenditure and a Post Metabolic Booster - Exertion and effort (read: intensity) increase your caloric burn. Sled Training combines cardio and strength training with cardio-like movements and a load to overcome. Whole body strength-movement exercises come with a high metabolic expenditure. As a result, your metabolism can stay elevated post-workout (EPOC), utilizing more calories even after you have finished your training.
- Fat Loss & Conditioning or Strength & Power - In general, you can use the Sled for multiple goals. How you use the sled, for fat loss or strength & power, will depend on how much weight you choose and the distance (or time) you move the sled.
- Performance Enhancement - The Sled also helps imitate fundamental body position for force production and acceleration. Developing strength and a greater force to apply to the ground using the sled, will carry over to a greater force (and speed) when not resisted. You can utilize the sled to train your body to apply more force in acceleration and as a result, run faster in sport.
- It's FUN! – Let's not forget the most important reason of all, it's fun! You can train by yourself or with friends-as many as you wish. It's a great bonding experience to sweat and suffer with others. Not to mention, while it may not be fun to feel the effects of exertion in the very moment, sled training makes us feel exhausted and accomplished, aka successful.
One Tool, Many Applications
In addition to varying the distance, load and intensity of your sled training, there is also no shortage of movement patterns either. While the Sled demands a total body effort, you can aim for more of an upper body, lower body, posterior or anterior emphasis. You can also vary the direction in which you move (forward, backward, even laterally) as well as mixing up the tools for attachment (ie: handles, a torso harness or a waist belt). All of the following movements can even be mixed and matched for different sled training workouts.
- Sled Drag - Facing the sled, sit your butt low, back tall, shoulder blades retracted, arms extended and walk backwards dragging the sled with you (see included video for demonstration).
- Sled Pull – Facing away from the sled (with torso harness on or arms at sides gripping handles), lean into a 45 degree body angle and walk forward pulling the sled behind you.
- Prowler Push (High) – With the prowler in front of you, arms extended high on the handles, move forward.
- Prowler or Sled Push (Low)– Lower to the ground, body behind the sled, hands low on the sled (or prowler), hips low and push forward.
- Squat & Row – Set up like the sled drag (facing the sled), squat down, stand and row (pull) the sled towards you. Back up to tighten the slack and repeat for the given distance.
- Rope Pull – Stand facing the sled. Attach a thick rope and pull hand over hand as you bring the sled towards you. Back up to extend the rope again and repeat the given distance (see included video for demonstration).
- Walking lunge behind the sled – Load the sled moderately so you can move the sled smooth. Stand behind the sled and lunge to move it forward. Make sure to keep your front heel down and step through that front heel. Be prepared for a lot of glute work here! (See included video for demonstration)
- Resisted bear crawls – Attach a torso harness. With moderate resistance, perform a bear crawl with the sled behind you for the given distance.
- Resisted Lateral Crossover Steps
Equipment for your Sled Training
Do not feel limited to being Sled Training by your options here either. Sleds can be purchased at a range of price and design. This Prowler is less than $200, and this Low sled is less than $100. That's an awesome investment when you consider all the benefits.
If you don't have a sled or prowler, a heavy tire and attachments will do the trick just as well.
Attachment options include handles, a torso harness or a waist belt (the latter two are great for those who are limited by grip).
Last but not least, for additional fun, resistance and challenge, add a friend ;-).
I'd love to hear your favorite sled workout, or your experience with sled training. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

I have gone of the pill nov. when I started my period. (29-5th) Hubby and I are trying for a baby. My period has been very irregular. Also menstruated dec. 8-15 then dec. 26-2 jan. So my last period was Jan 26 and for 5 days now(started jan 27) I've been having brown blood on my pantyliner. the flow is too low to use a pad. Yesterday morning and this morning also had red drops when going to toilet, but only at toilet, no red on pantyliner. I am hoping for it to be implantation bleeding but also stressed there may be something wrong with me any advice would help thanx
Hi bykie,
Welcome to EmpowHER. Implantation bleeding is usually scanty and usually pink or brownish discharge. Bleeding that occurs about a week after your ovulation can also be implantation bleeding. You might need to wait until your period is due and take a home pregnancy test or see your doctor for bloodwork.
January 31, 2013 - 7:37amThank you for your advice I have just noticed that I have made a mistake in my letter. My last period was Dec 26 and not Jan 26 my apologies :)

Apple Launches Worldwide 'Shot on iPhone 6' Ad Ca...
"Shot on iPhone 6" photo on billboard in Los Angeles (via Twitter)
A number of "Shot on iPhone 6" advertisements have begun surfacing on Twitter and Instagram over the past few days, with spots appearing on the back cover of The New Yorker magazine, horizontal posters in London's Euston Square subway station and in the Malaysian city of Bangsar, billboards in Los Angeles and Toronto, the side of a tall skyscraper in Dubai and more.
"Shot on iPhone 6" photo on back cover of The New Yorker (via Twitter)
The photography campaign began with Apple promoting a world gallery of photos taken with the iPhone 6 on its homepage over the weekend, including photo apps such as Instagram, Snapseed, VSCO Cam, Filterstorm Neue, Camera+ and Adobe Photoshop Express used for editing and filtering. The majority of photos shown provide scenic views of the outdoors, ranging from mountains and deserts to lakes and waterfalls.

As part of its Shot on iPhone 6 campaign promoting iPhone photography, Apple is now hanging billboard advertisements around the world. The ads feature the photographs in full bleed with a simple 'Shot on iPhone 6′ tagline. The posters are going up around the world, including some dramatic large billboards on the side of skyscrapers. Pictured above is one such poster (photo taken by Jimmy Grewal on Twitter) being setup on a skyscraper in Dubai.
In total, the campaign will showcase 77 different individual's images spanning 24 countries. Users on Twitter have been posting sightings of these ads from all over the world …

Upcoming Steve Jobs Book Promises 'Sensational' N...
The book explores the story of how Steve Jobs made the transformation from an arrogant young man exiled from Apple to the visionary leader that skyrocketed Apple to fame. Schlender and Tetzeli interviewed many of Steve Jobs' friends, family, and inner circle, to get access to never-before-told stories. Tim Cook, Jony Ive, Eddy Cue, Ed Catmull, John Lasseter, and Robert Iger all contributed to the book. It also draws on the experiences Schlender had with Jobs in interviews across many years.
Daring Fireball's John Gruber received an advanced copy of Becoming Steve Jobs and called it "the book about Steve Jobs that the world deserves." According to Gruber, it's an accurate retelling of the life of Jobs, with a "significant amount of new reporting. Some stories, he writes, "are going to be sensational."Schlender and Tetzeli make clear that Jobs's astounding success at Apple was far more complicated than simply picking the right products: he became more patient, he learned to trust his inner circle, and discovered the importance of growing the company incrementally rather than only shooting for dazzling game-changing products. .
A hardcover copy of Becoming Steve Jobs can be pre-ordered on Amazon.com for $21.78. There's also a Kindle edition and an Audible version.The book is smart, accurate, informative, insightful, and at times, utterly heartbreaking. Schlender and Tetzeli paint a vivid picture of Jobs the man, and also clearly understand the industry in which he worked. They also got an astonishing amount of cooperation from the people who knew Jobs best: colleagues past and present from Apple and Pixar -- particularly Tim Cook -- and his widow, Laurene Powell Jobs.

Opinion: Apple TV should get these 10 updates at next wee...
Nearly eight years have passed since Apple released the first-generation Apple TV, a product originally hyped as "something really special" but quickly demoted to a "hobby" after initial sales fizzled. The second-generation version arrived with much less fanfare in late 2010, and the modestly tweaked third-generation modelgot a mere five-minute launch at a March event three years ago. Since then, there's been plenty of evidence that Apple was working on updated hardware, a major partnership with cable companies, and major new content deals, but apart from the quiet addition of new channels, nothing's actually happened.
Since total Apple TV sales remain soft by comparison with Apple's other product lines, next week's fashion-focused and celebrity-packed Apple Watch special event would be a great opportunity to launch an updated Apple TV to a broader audience. The current-generation Apple TV is older than its predecessor was when Apple replaced it, and there are at least 10 software and hardware tweaks that could fundamentally improve the Apple TV experience. Here's our list of 5 features Apple TV really needs, and 5 features it would really benefit from having…
What Apple TV Needs
1. Unified Search. The absence of an Apple TV-wide, unified search feature is increasingly hurting the growth potential of the device. With every additional channel Apple allows onto the device's main menu, the number of doorways leading to content increases; once you enter a doorway to a content aggregator such as Yahoo Screen, KOR-TV, or Hulu, you're confronted with even more possible paths to take. It's gotten to the point where users can spend as much time navigating through menus as actually watching shows. A unified search feature — at a minimum including titles, cast/crew names, and description field searches — would dramatically improve the Apple TV in a flash. It would be even better with…
2. Better (If Alternate) UI Navigation. Even if we accept that the Apple TV's packed-in Apple Remote is a necessary first-level menu navigation tool, that doesn't preclude Apple from leveraging iPhones, iPads, or iPod touches for an alternate navigation scheme. It could be voice searches, but it could also be a mirroring of the Apple TV UI on the iOS device's screen. Back in 2007 or even 2010, relying on an iPhone as an input device seemed like a rich man's luxury, and Apple's underdeveloped iOS app Remote expanded only a little on the free physical remote. Today, iOS devices are so ubiquitous now that there's no excuse not to use them more heavily for fully rethought input.
3. Game Controller Support. Video gaming is annually a $100 billion business. Games are the largest individual category in the App Store, representing over 20% of the 1.4 million titles available for download. People love to play games on their TVs, and love to play games on their iOS devices. The lack of proper Apple TV support for this has been a glaring omission for years, and although there are now Bluetooth iOS game controllers, Apple hasn't tied them directly into the Apple TV. That needs to change.
4. More Horsepower. The single-core A5 inside the Apple TV is now several generations behind the A7 and A8 devices most of Apple's customers are using. In theory, that doesn't mean much — the Apple TV doesn't need to run all the same apps as an iPad — but if the Apple TV is going to handle next-gen AirPlay Mirroring and streaming, play current-generation iOS games, or offer features such as Siri and FaceTime, it will need more horsepower.
5. More Memory. In addition to more video RAM, the Apple TV could really use additional flash storage space to hold games and more complex apps. Some months ago, Apple's web site began to use the phrase "Starting at $99″ rather than "Only $99″ for the Apple TV's price. This typically only happens when Apple offers more than one model, and most of the time when those models differ in storage capacity.
What Apple TV Should Get, Too
6. A La Carte Cable Channels. This one's been rumored for the past year and seems inevitable given HBO's very-near-term plans to offer direct subscription-based access to its content, but the killer app for Apple TV is still great content. People want to pay for that content (if at all) on a monthly, all-you-can-eat basis rather than by the individual episode. Apple knows this and needs to make it happen.
7. A Camera. Either packed in or as an accessory, a FaceTime camera for video calling is a natural addition to the Apple TV. Gesture controls like Xbox One? Augmented reality like PlayStation 4? Both are optional at best, and probably not worth having. But video calling should not be restricted to iOS devices and Macs.
8. 4K Support. This is in the "should" category rather than the "must" category solely because Apple so infrequently updates the Apple TV — at the current rate, a 2015 update probably wouldn't be tweaked until 2018. Ultra HD 4K televisions aren't ubiquitous yet, but they'll grow in popularity over the next few years, so Apple TV hardware support for the standard would be forward-thinking.
9. Better Wireless. The Apple TV would really benefit from 802.11ac support, particularly for smoother AirPlay streaming from 802.11ac-compatible iOS devices. Without improved Wi-Fi (and even with it), streaming 4K video is going to be a challenge.
10. A HomeKit App. Apple has already announced that the Apple TV will in some way be involved in managing HomeKit accessories. An app for HomeKit accessories — along with a proper interface for controlling them — is even more inevitable (though less exciting) than support for Apple TV games. That said, the latest reports suggest that HomeKit accessories won't be ready to ship until later in 2015, perhaps around the same time as WWDC in June. If the Apple TV is going to be a part of the system, this could make a later-in-the-year update more likely.

'Becoming Steve Jobs' book with Tim Cook & Jony Ive i...
There's a healthy amount of story telling about the life of Steve Jobs due out this year. In October, we'll get to see Aaron Sorkin's take on the late Apple co-founder's experience at Apple play out on the big screen when "Jobs" hits theaters.
Sooner than that, though, a new book from Brent Schlender & Rick Tetzeli entitled Becoming Steve Jobs (announced via Daring Fireball) will attempt to be different from all the other Jobs books.
Becoming Steve Jobs takes on and breaks down the existing myth and stereotypes about Steve Jobs. The conventional, one-dimensional view of Jobs is that he was half-genius, half-jerk from youth, an irascible and selfish leader who slighted friends and family alike. Becoming Steve Jobs answers the central question about the life and career of the Apple cofounder and CEO: How did a young man so reckless and arrogant that he was exiled from the company he founded become the most effective visionary business leader of our time, ultimately transforming the daily life of billions of people?
How will this new book differ from everything that has already been published about Jobs including his authorized biography from Walter Isaacson? The book is loaded with interviews, for starters, including ones from Apple executives like Tim Cook, Jony Ive, and Eddy Cue (so don't expect any pen throwing).
Their rich, compelling narrative is filled with stories never told before from the people who knew Jobs best, and who decided to open up to the authors, including his family, former inner circle executives, and top people at Apple, Pixar and Disney, most notably Tim Cook, Jony Ive, Eddy Cue, Ed Catmull, John Lasseter, Robert Iger and many others.
The new book is available for pre-order now from iBooks, ($14.99), Kindle ($14.99), and hardcover (Reg. $30, pre-order $21.78) and due out March 24th.

OS X 10.10.3 beta goes public, bringing the new Photos ap...
If you're not an Apple developer and you'd like to try the new Photos app for OS X before it launches, now's your chance. Apple has added the 10.10.3 update to its public beta program for OS X, and the update brings Photos (and a bunch of new emoji) along with it.
Photos is a Mac analog for the iOS app of the same name, and it's meant to replace iPhoto as the basic built-in photo app to serve most users' needs. It will also be replacing Aperture, which Apple will stop offering when the final version of Photos is released. Power users will find that it lacks many advanced features, so current Aperture users should begin evaluating alternative software like Adobe Lightroom if they want software that will continue to be supported.
You should always take precautions before you install beta software, and that's doubly true here since you're updating your OS and importing your existing iPhoto libraries into a brand-new program. Make sure you have recent backups of your OS and of your photo libraries in case something goes wrong.

Apple Stores will now allow customers to test in-ear head...
Apple will begin allowing prospective customers to test out in-ear headphones prior to purchase within Apple Stores, according to several employees. Due to sanitation concerns, Apple has been reluctant to allowing customers to try out in-ear headphones, but a new solution called Demo Kits will solve this problem. Beginning this week, when a customer is interested in purchasing in-ear headphones, an Apple Store employee will have the ability to create a custom Demo Kit that holds up to six different models of in-ear headphones. These kits will include a fresh pair ear tips so that the try on process is sanitary…
The customer will be able to keep the ear tips regardless if they purchase the headphones. The customer can then plug the headphones into their iPhone or iPod to sample the quality before making their purchase decision. Apple told employees that 51% of surveyed customers have said that they would like to test out in-ear headphones prior to purchasing, so this move will likely spur an increase of in-ear headphone sales via Apple Store. Of course, with the upcoming Bluetooth Apple Watch, Apple will market Bluetooth headphones alongside the device for music and fitness applications.
The following headphones are available to try out with Demo Kits (Apple's prices listed, but linked to better prices at Amazon): RHA MA450i ($49.95), urBeats ($99.95), Beats Tour ($149.95), JayBird BlueBuds X($169.95), PowerBeats 2 Wireless ($199.95), and the Bose QC20i ($299.95).

The Anne Frank House is a museum where visitors are given the opportunity to personally envision what happened on this very spot.
The history of the Anne Frank House
Discover Anne Frank's hiding place
The rooms of the Secret Annex have been maintained in their authentic state thanks to conscientious preservation activities. The rooms in the Secret Annex are empty, because the furniture was carted away directly after the arrest. Salvaged documents and objects belonging to the eight people in hiding are now displayed in the Secret Annex.
The front part of the house, the place where the helpers worked and Otto Frank's former office, has been returned to the style and atmosphere of the hiding period. Thanks to this, visitors are provided with the opportunity to feel personally involved in what occurred at this location. The story is told using quotes from Anne's diary as a reference. Original objects, documents, and photographs that are on display in the exhibition serve in strengthening the personal account of the hiding period and of the deportation to the camps. Three short films place the personal story in a historical context.
The old canal-side house at 265 Prinsengracht, next to Otto Frank's former office, has been renovated. Here, information is given about the diary and its significance. Anne Frank's original diaries and other writings are permanently on display. In the new part of the building is a temporary exhibition. Furthermore there is also a room for school groups, a bookshop and a museum café.

Three snow leopard cubs revealed at Marwell Zoo
Three rare snow leopard cubs born at a Hampshire zoo have taken their first steps outside their den as they went on show to the public earlier.
They were born at Marwell Zoo, near Winchester, 12 weeks ago.
Having had their vaccinations, the female and two male cubs have now been allowed to venture outside for the first time.
The snow leopard is an endangered species with possibly as few as 4,000 animals remaining in the world.
The cubs parents, Irina and Indeever, arrived at the park in 2010 as part of the European endangered species breeding programme (EEP).
Keepers have named the female cub Animesh, which means "bright" and "to stare open eyed" in Nepalese, because she opened her eyes particularly early.
Hunted for medicinesOne of the male cubs was named Ariun, meaning "pure" in Mongolian, and the keepers are asking the public to help them name the second male cub.
Mountain killer
- Snow leopards are exceptional athletes capable of making huge leaps over ravines
- Bodies highly adapted to their harsh, mountainous environment with enlarged nasal cavities which heat inhaled cold air
- Can bring down prey three times their own size
- On average they only kill one large animal twice a month
- They hiss, meow and growl, but do not roar like other big cats
Source: BBC Nature
Marc Fox, team leader of carnivores, said they had "already developed their own personalities".
"It will be interesting to see if they come out of their shell more now they have a larger space," he added.
"To have three cubs is really rare as leopard cats would normally only have one or maybe two cubs.
"This is Irina's second litter and she is an excellent mum.
"We are really looking forward to watching these cubs explore their new home - it's great fun watching them play together."
Heidi Mitchell, conservation biologist at the park, said: "Snow leopards, like all big cat species, are threatened in the wild.
"This means that maintaining a healthy captive population of snow leopards is of vital importance to the global conservation strategy for the species."
Estimates by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), the Snow Leopard Conservancy and the Snow Leopard Trust have put the number of animal left on the planet at between 4,000 and 7,000.
They are hunted for their fur and bones, which are used in traditional far east medicines.
Snow leopards live at high altitudes in steep terrain, broken by cliffs, rocky outcrops and ravines, usually above 3,000m (9,800ft) in central Asia and the Himalayas.
But the animals are gradually being pushed out of their natural habitat due to destruction, livestock grazing, their prey being hunted by humans and other conflicts with people.
Some also fall victims to landmines in northern Afghanistan.

M-Note // 07.13.12 // Rev. Matt Miofsky
Dear Gathering Community,
This morning I had coffee with the head of one of the leading private elementary schools in St. Louis. In education circles he is respected and known; authoring articles, speaking at conferences and offering counsel to others. We have gotten together now on a couple of occasions and he is rapidly becoming one of my favorite persons to talk with. He is not a churchgoer and I am no expert in education. We know little about one another's particular disciplines. Our worlds do not naturally overlap (nor do they ever have to). Yet when we talk, we find unexpected commonality between the challenges and opportunities he faces leading a school and the ones I face leading a church. We sympathize with each other's pain, are intrigued by each other's questions and are encouraged by shared wisdom. We met quite unexpectedly, but each time we are together, I learn and grow as a leader. In the New Testament, Paul takes under his wing Timothy, a younger and less experienced leader. They travel together sharing challenges, wisdom and encouragement. Some of this wisdom is left to us in Paul's letters to Timothy. Their witness, along with my conversation this morning, remind me of how important it is for me as a young man, father, husband and leader to have mentors. I need people sharpening my curiosity, asking me questions, challenging my assumptions and encouraging me in my journey. I found that over a cup of coffee this morning, and realize how much I need it. Do you have such relationships? Do you have mentors or associates that serve such roles in your life? If not, seek it out. It will turn out to be an unexpected gift!
Decisions, Decisions: What is your process for making hard decisions? Do you go with your gut? Make a list of pros and cons? Do you seek the advice of others? This Sunday we will finish our series on God directed decision-making. This weekend, I will teach what scripture has to say about the role of friends in our decision making process. I will also challenge us to think through the effects and consequences of our decisions. In preparation, I urge you to read some verses from the book of Proverbs. Traditionally attributed to Solomon, Proverbs is full of pithy and practical wisdom that speaks honestly and directly to many of life's challenges. Check out what Solomon says about friends and the role they play in our decision-making by reading Proverbs 11:14, Proverbs 13:20, Proverbs 15:22, and Proverbs 19:20. Don't forget if you missed Part 1 last week, you can catch up here in time for Sunday!
Membership: We are constantly striving to make it easier for people to connect with our church and deepen their faith through our ministries. This summer, we have worked hard to revamp our membership process. Many of you have been attending The Gathering for a while and are wondering what the next step is. Others of you may have written membership off as unnecessary. Beginning this Sunday, July 15, we will launch a two-week membership class. It will be available each month and is an excellent way to learn more about The Gathering's unique mission and vision. Whether you know you want to be a member, or are just curious to learn more, I urge you to join me for this opportunity. It's not too late to sign up to get in on the July class, so for more information check out our website.
We Love Kids: I want to celebrate something with you. As many of you know, Leslie Damann joined us a little over a month ago as our new Family Ministry Director. We are aggressively working to improve all aspects of our ministry with families, especially as some of our young children get older. We want to have excellent ministry for middle school and high school youth in addition to our younger kids. This work cannot happen with the work of one person though. It takes teams of leaders, and parents who make weekly worship a priority for their family. I want to celebrate that last Sunday we had over 100 kids worship at McCausland and nearly 30 at our Clayton site. This is amazing and evidence that a new spirit is alive in our family ministry. New adult and parents are serving and new ideas are being shared. I am excited about this and as a church, I hope you are excited with me. If you are interested in serving our kids or helping Leslie lead us to a new and exciting ministry for children and you, please contact her. She will be excited to meet you.
It's Friday the 13th so be careful out there, and I will see you all on Sunday!

Bust out your giant Club Monaco sweaters and message me on ICQ, I'm feeling 13 again. Brandy and Monica have gone back to 1998 and rekindled their frienemy status for their new jam, a follow up to their huge collaboration on The Boy Is Mine. In the 2012 version, also referred to as It All Belongs To Me, the singers aren't fighting over a guy this time, but instead fight a guy to get their belongings back after the relationship goes south.
Brandy and Monica still have the same no-BS attitude as their teenage selves, but the track isn't as strong as their first single together. That being said, it's difficult to compete with such a massive success and I'm just excited to hear their voices together again. Instead of side-by-side apartments, the women sit side-by-side and sing about paying for their boyfriend's stuff. The video is very much Beyonce's Irreplaceable meets Waiting To Exhale.

The Next "It" Doll
After Bratz, will this be the next 'it' doll?
Pinkie Cooper, the newest fashion dolls from Bratz inventor Carter Bryant, are set to hit stores nationwide in late summer.
More than a decade after Bratz, the edgy multi-ethnic dolls that fans dubbed the "anti-Barbie," became a global phenomenon, their inventor is unveiling his next creation.
Meet "Pinkie Cooper." The 9-inch fashion doll is part human, part English cocker spaniel and a student at New York City's World of Original Fashion academy, or WOOF! for short.
Like her Bratz predecessor, Pinkie Cooper is a fashionista. She likes to hang out and "travel" with Ginger and Pepper — two doll friends who are also part-human, part-pup — and her pet dog "L'il Pinkie."
A lot is riding on Pinkie Cooper's little plastic shoulders. Its inventor, Carter Bryant, has poured thousands of dollars and hours into his latest creation. Its distributor, a small toymaker called The Bridge Direct, has sunk millions into bringing Pinkie Cooper to stores nationwide. Meantime, for the $3 billion U.S. doll market, the question is whether Pinkie can repeat what Bratz first did — crack through Barbie's dominance.
Related Story: 10 things you'll pay more for in 2013
Bryant, an independent inventor, and his sister Anjanette Abell started working together on the project in 2009. His idea: Create a doll that was sweet, cute, stylish and looked like Abell's real cocker spaniel named Pinkie Cooper. Also, compared to Bratz, Pinkie Cooper would be "more sophisticated, glamorous and not as edgy," he said.
While Bryant perfected his sketches, Abell focused on building Pinkie Cooper's "look."
"I spent a lot of time finding the right fabrics for her clothes and helped bring her character to life," she said.
Pinkie Cooper is definitely unique, said Gerrick Johnson, toy industry analyst with BMO Capital Markets. "When you put a dog's head on a human body, you've already crossed over to something that's we haven't seen before in fashion dolls," he said.
Competitors that come closest are Mattel's hugely popular Monster High dolls, who look like daughters of famous monsters, and MGA Entertainment's Novi Stars, fashion dolls that look like aliens, Johnson said.
But will little girls fall in love with Pinkie Cooper like they did with Bratz?
Jay Foreman, founder and CEO of Florida-based The Bridge Direct, which is producing and marketing the dolls, certainly hopes so.
Related Story: When baby products meet high-end robotics
"Pinkie Cooper is our single biggest product launch in our four-year history," said Foreman. If the doll is a hit, it could potentially generate hundreds of millions in sales and propel his $40 million business into the big leagues. He plans to roll the dolls out in July in stores nationwide — as well as 20 other countries.
Foreman's track record so far in launching hit toys is impressive. Before he founded The Bridge Direct, Foreman was the mastermind behind the launch of Spice Girls dolls in the U.S. Another toy company he founded, Play Along, successfully launched Britney Spears dolls. In late 2010, The Bridge Direct launched Justin Bieber dolls, generating more than $100 million in sales. Not bad for a 50-employee firm.
Foreman thinks chances are good that Pinkie Cooper will succeed. "She's unusual. Like Bratz, she has the potential to break the mold," he said. Major toy retailers like Toys R Us, Target (TGT, Fortune 500), Wal-Mart (WMT, Fortune 500) and Kmart (SHLD, Fortune 500) have already ordered Pinkie Cooper dolls and will stock them in late summer, he said.
But, Foreman acknowledges, "ultimately our livelihood is based on the whims of 4- to 8-year-olds."
Pinkie Cooper could be a big hit or fall flat, agreed Johnson. "But at least she's an example of the risk and innovation that the toy industry badly needs right now."

DUI Testers
New technology to keep drunk drivers from driving
(CBS News) CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The message from police to party-goers this New Year's Eve is: "Drive sober or get pulled over."
There were nearly 10,000 deaths from drunk driving in the U.S. last year, down 2.5 percent from the year before.
There is now a debate over technology that could prevent drunk drivers from starting their engines.
CBS News
On October 29, 2010, Matt and Meredith Eastridge were pregnant with their first child, a son.
The same night, David Huffman spent the last two hours of his life getting drunk. He put away the equivalent of 15 drinks, each one recorded on a security camera.
The 25-year-old stumbled out of the Charlotte bar and three minutes later, Matt and Meredith Eastridge were critically injured when Huffman, with a blood alcohol content of .23 and driving 100 miles per hour, hurtled into their SUV.
"I remember saying look at that, look at that car. That was the last thing i remember" before being hit head-on, Meredith said.
Six months pregnant, Meredith lost their baby.
"I think about him every day, how old he would be and what he would be doing," Meredith said.
"There were multiple times in that night this tragedy could have been avoided," Matt said.

Mother's forgiveness gives convict second chance
After tragedy, Russia rethinks drunk driving
Bud Zaouk is leading a research team creating technology that could help save 10,000 lives a year.
"One is breath-based and the other is touch-based. The idea is to develop a sensor that could detect if anyone is above the legal limit of .08 and prevent them from moving the vehicle and driving," Bud said.
With the touch-based detector, "you press the start button and it starts the vehicle. And it will be a small infrared light that shines inside the finger," Bud said.
The infra-red light looks for alcohol in the finger's tissue.
"Alcohol has its own unique optical signature," Bud said, and if the optical signature registers above .08, "then the vehicle prevents you from moving."
The sensor in the breath-based approach is located around the steering wheel.
"That infra-red light excited the molecules and allows you to find out how much alcohol you have in the breath. It's non-contact, non-invasive," Bud said.
The $10 million funding for Bud Zaouk's project is split between 16 carmakers and the federal government.
However, it's opposed by the American Beverage Institute, which represents 8,000 chain restaurants in the U.S.
The group made the following statement: "Drunk driving fatalities are at historically low levels. We shouldn't try to solve what's left of the drunk driving problem by targeting all Americans with alcohol sensing technology."
Bud Zaouk said the technology still needs work.
"I think at this stage we are probably looking at eight to 10 years, when you would start seeing it inside vehicles," Bud said.
The Eastridges now have a daughter, Sloane. They hope this technology will be standard in new cars by the time she is old enough to drive.

Shop At Home
Wizards of home shopping TV
For inventor Garold Miller, TV success is still sinking in.
His Halo Pocket Power 2800 Charger, a compact charger for cell phones, debuted in November on QVC and set a new network record for most units sold in a day. It's still sold out on QVC.
This isn't the first time that Miller has hit the innovation jackpot. He invented guardian angel pins that were sold at gift shops nationwide. He created a fashion jewelry collection that made millions in revenue. And 10 years ago, Miller debuted a beaded "prayer box" bracelet on QVC that became a bestseller.
The Halo charger is Miller's attempt at creating a great tech product that "makes life easier."
The universal portable charger, which you can charge in a car or on your computer, comes in multi-colored metallics, even a bright pink leopard print. It offers six hours of charge time for all types of cellphones, e-readers and Bluetooth headsets.

The Expert View: Aviva, Mothercare, Sainsbury's
A round-up of the best analyst commentary on shares, also including Persimmon and Majestic Wine.
Leave a comment!
'Theoretical merit' in Aviva bid for RSA
Analysts at Berenberg have highlighted the 'theoretical merit' for insurer Aviva (AV.L) if it chose to bid for RSA (RSA.L).
RSA is facing a £200 million capital shortfall and analyst Matthew Pearson said it could be a target for Aviva, which would have 'considerable industrial logic'. Aviva is not without its own problems, namely around leverage, which a takeover would not reduce, but make more sustainable.
'With two-thirds of RSA's premiums coming from complimentary regions, combining the two operations would establish market leadership positions,' he said, adding that it would also help 'cement the delivery of the 'cash flow plus growth' strategy'.
Pearson said the analysis of the merits of an acquisition did not mean it would happen but that without 'radical action' Aviva would still struggle with leverage issues that would limit dividend prospects.
Pearson retained a 'sell' recommendation on Aviva shares and a target price of 415p.
Aviva shares were up 1.32%, or 6p, at 460p on Wednesday.

International problems means Mothercare still a 'sell'
Weak international trading has led Liberum to maintain its 'sell' rating for Mothercare (MTC.L).
The retailer brought forward its Q3 trading update which showed gross margins were down 4% in the 12 weeks to 4 January.
Analyst Sanjay Vidyarthi said he was concerned about weakness in the international business which has been underpinning the company in the UK. He placed a target price of 300p on the shares and maintained his 'sell' recommendation.
The weakness in international markets has been caused by currency exchange rates and 'pressure in Russia and the Middle East due to unseasonable weather' and 'weaker economic conditions'.
'Management now expects full year 2014 profits to be below the current range of expectations,' said Vidyarthi, adding that without further guidance on margins it would be 'difficult to know exactly where consensus will fall'.
Mothercare shares slumped 30%, or 128p, to end Wednesday at 291p.

Housebuilder Persimmon upgraded to 'hold' on back of Help to Buy
Numis has increased its rating for housebuilder Persimmon (PSN.L) from 'reduce' to 'hold' as it continues to benefit from the government's Help to Buy scheme.
Analyst Chris Millington increased his target price on the shares to £13.00 after a full year trading update that 'has surprised on the upside' as Persimmon increases the number of properties built to satisfy demand caused by Help to Buy.
'We forecast 7% growth for the full year but the group has increased volumes 16%,' said Millington. 'Overall the upgrades to estimates has brought Persimmon's valuation back in line with the sector and therefore we are moving to a 'hold' recommendation and await to hear more details on the cash return.'
Numis increased its expectations for profits, now predicting 2014 profits before tax to be £417 million, up from £354 million and in 2015, for figures to his £488 million, up from £396.5 million.
Shares closed up 1.26%, or 16.25p, on Wednesday at £13.10.

Sainsbury's is Panmure's favourite grocery stock
Strong Christmas trading means Sainsbury's (SBRY.L) has secured the title of best placed UK food retailer, according to Panmure Gordon.
The supermarket has by-passed a difficult October and November to produce a positive Q3 trading update, where sales have been above expectations.
Graham Jones, analyst at Panmure, placed a target price of 369p and continued his hold recommendation for the stock. He described Sainsbury's as 'well set up and balanced' and said although online sales had slowed in the second half of the year, the supermarket's Taste the Difference range has continued to grow.
'We don't think the valuation looks particularly demanding, and we continue to view Sainsbury's as the best placed of the UK food retailers, but our caution on the short-term sector outlook holds us back from having a more positive recommendation on the stock,' said Jones.
Sainsbury's shares moved little on Wednesday, down 0.37%, or 1.35p, at 367p.

Investec toasts double-digit growth for Majestic
Investec is expecting double-digit growth from Majestic Wine (MJW.L) as 2014 becomes a year of investment for the wine warehouse.
Analyst Kate Calvert placed a 546p target price on the shares and reiterated her 'buy' recommendation despite Investec adjusting down its 2014 profit expectations to come in line with consensus.
'With 2014 being a year of investment, we believe Majestic is well-positioned to deliver at least double-digit growth going forward as it leverages recent infrastructure and new space investment in 2015,' she said.
'In our view the current valuation is undemanding given the expected profit trajectory, cash generation and dividend yield.'
Majestic shares closed down 3.19%, or 17.5p, at 530p on Wednesday.
