This is a great track by Heather Myles, and the dance has some interesting steps which make you have to concentrate at first. After doing it three times though, it seemed to all fall into place really nicely. Fast? Yes, but with smaller steps and it's very do-able!

Sarah-Elizabeth Langford (born 1979) is a beauty queen who has competed at both Miss America and Miss USA. She grew up in Georgia where her father was a state senator. He died when she was fifteen years old, an experience that had a long-term impact on her life.
Langford's first pageant experience came in 2003 when she represented the District of Columbia in the Miss America pageant. She failed to place, but did win a non-finalist scholarship of $5,000.[1] In late 2004, Langford won the Miss District of Columbia USA pageant in her first attempt. She represented the District of Columbia in the Miss USA 2005 pageant held in Baltimore, Maryland in April 2005. Langford again failed to make the cut in the pageant, which was won by Chelsea Cooley of North Carolina.
Prior to the live pageant broadcast, Langford had competed in a special episode of the game show Fear Factor featuring six Miss USA contestants. She completed all three stunts and was declared the winner and awarded the title Miss Fear Factor. Her prize included $25,000 for the charity of her choice, and $25,000 for herself. Langford chose to award the charity prize to United Youth Adult Conference, an institution devoted to mentoring young people.
Langford attended Pace Academy in Atlanta, Georgia,[2] where she graduated class of 1996 with actor Randy Harrison. She completed a degree in French from the University of Michigan in 2000. Langford was an All-American member of the Michigan gymnastics team from 1997–2000,[3] and performed gymnastics during the talent portion of the Miss America pageant. She later attended the Howard University School of Law, which she graduated from in 2006.
In 2004 she was awarded a Capital City fellowship, a two-year appointment to work for the District of Columbia government. Inaugurated by Mayor Anthony A. Williams in 1999, the Capital City Fellows Program (CCFP) gives recent graduates of master's degree programs in public administration, public policy, urban planning the opportunity to win a two-year fellowship program to work for the city.[4]

How to Have a Beautiful Soul (or Avoid an Ugly One)
I was rereading parts of Feodor Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground this past week. Dostoevsky – a 19th Century Russian writer – is among the pantheon of Great Authors whose works, though rooted deeply in time and place, transcend them. His massive sprawling novel The Brothers Karamazov stands as one of the uncontested masterpieces of world literature. It is in my top five favorite novels.
Notes from Underground is something else entirely. It's the jumbled confession of a jaded twisted man, immersed in his own torment and misery. It amounts to one of the bleakest portraits ever rendered of man alone, man without friend, without God, without hope. "I am a sick man," the confession begins. "I am a spiteful man." Thus launches a misanthropic tirade of burning resentment, choking self-pity, and vicious self-loathing.
The book proved prophetic. Increasingly, the nameless anti-hero of the Notes resembles us, or we him: a people longing for the admiration of others without the burden of them, wanting applause without having to earn it, bearing grudges for the slightest slights. A people who throw off God, thinking it's liberation, and who only end up impoverished and enslaved, captive to our own dark selves.
Dostoevsky was a Christ-follower – a troubled one, to be sure, but with a deep grasp of God's extravagant grace. His later works – The Idiot, Crime & Punishment, The Brothers K – are breath-taking testaments to the transforming and liberating power of the Christ who meets even the least of us in the most unlikely places.
The relationship in The Brothers K between the simple saintly Alyosha and the brilliant embittered – and rabidly atheistic – Ivan is alone worth the price of that book and the effort of reading it. Ivan's logic is hard to refute, but Alyosha's life is hard to resist. We find the atheist semi convincing, but the saint entirely compelling. Alyosha's soul draws us with its beauty. Ivan's soul repels us with its ugliness.
It strikes me, leafing through the Notes, that Dostoevsky was sketching all this out, and with it issuing a warning: that among the many horrors of rejecting Christ, not least is a soul that grows ugly.
Thus I begin my confession: I am a forgiven man. I am a thankful man.
My First Time Base Jumping!
I wrote this in my book Spiritual Rhythm a few years ago:
The fastest growing sport in Norway is wingsuit jumping. It's the pastime of lunatics, or it's what warrior-knights do in an age without dragons. It requires steel nerves, a cool-head, a touch of madness. You must be able to look fast-approaching catastrophe in the face, and whoop.
I go onto to describe the equipment: a kind of giant flying squirrel bodysuit that turns the jumper, splayed wide open, into a human kite, sans string. The sport, also called base jumping, has become a worldwide phenomenon.
I did it last weekend.
Not literally. I'm neither brave nor crazy enough for that. I did it figuratively, except with all the same sensations I imagine base-jumpers experience – utmost dread, giddy anticipation, sheer terror, pure exhilaration, an urgent visceral sense that if I live through this it will be one of the most daring things I've ever attempted, and if I don't live I will at least die with a certain flair.
Last weekend I resigned.
I have been in pastoral ministry nearly 24 years, and in my current post over 17. I've loved every day of it, except the days I haven't (usually Mondays, when I nurse a post-sermon hangover and writhe in existential angst about, well, everything). The role has shaped me beyond measure. Being a pastor has done more in me than I have ever done being a pastor. I entered the role soon after my 29th birthday. I will step out of the role just past my 53rd. Between those two milestones lies a universe. I am not the same man. And yet, I am more myself than ever. The pastorate has been trial by ordeal and foretaste of heaven, often on the same day. I have failed miserably and succeeded beyond my wildest hopes. I am loved, and I am despised. I have been a prophet, and a fool. I have poured myself out like a drink offering, and sometimes squandered myself like a cheap piñata. It has been awesome, and burdensome, glorious, and tedious, and altogether beautiful.
And last Sunday, I quit.
Well, not exactly. I announced to my congregation that I would be stepping down as their pastor on June 16. They were justly slightly more shocked than I was. I truly thought I'd be here until roll call.
I do have a landing spot (we're back to the base jumping metaphor): Ambrose College in Calgary, Alberta – my birth town, now grown vast and rich, but no warmer come winter. I have been appointed Associate Professor of Pastoral Theology at Ambrose Seminary. I start August 1.
Maybe the letter I read my congregation last Sunday best explains all that. Please click this link to see that. Letter
I covet your prayers for me and my family, and also for New Life Church.
Pray we all land, if not softly, at least intact.

This show included several modern stylized cartoons made by UPA for TV. Each cartoon belonged to one of several series.
Although the show was produced in color, it was broadcast in black and white.
Individual cartoons ran for 5 minutes each.
The show ran at 5:30 p.m. Sundays. The series lasted only until March 10, 1957, as it turned out to be too expensive to continue.
Reruns of the show were aired on Friday nights in the summer of 1958. "The Gerald McBoing-Boing Show" thus appears to have been the first animated series to air regularly during prime time (preceding "The Flintstones" by two seasons).
Reran as "The Boing Boing Show."
This cartoon was an "Adventure" segment of the show.

"You can do better"
I had high hopes for this cigar but was very disappointed. The tobacco is too loosely packed for my taste. Almost grassey and made me feel a little nauseous. Very good draw and way too earthly and no change in taste. The wrapper is border line flimsy. Nice appearance for a fat cigar. A punch cutter would be best for this type of cigar. For the price you can do much better. I would not buy it again.

Former senior TDP leader Dadi Veerabhadra Rao and his son Ratnakar formally joined the YSR Congress on Saturday in the presence of honorary president Y.S. Vijayamma. Mr. Veerabhadra Rao made the announcement after meeting party president Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy in Chanchalguda jail.
Later, he called on Ms. Vijayamma at her Lotus Pond residence where he was formally admitted into the party and presented a YSRC scarf. Earlier, emerging out of the prison, Mr. Veerabhadra Rao was all praise for the Kadapa MP. "What I heard about Jagan and what I saw today is totally different," he said.
"When I was in TDP, there was no scope to know the other side of the allegations. Now the facts are before me. I have decided to sail with the YSRC and stand by the YSR family. He noted that having spent 11 months in the jail, there was a determination in Jagan to do something for the people."
By coincidence, three senior leaders from Anakapalli constituency -- former Minister and YSR Congress CGC member Konathala Ramakrishna, Anakapalli MP Sabbam Srihari and Mr. Veerabhadra Rao -- who do not get along well with each other are in the same party.
YSRC leaders maintain that Jagan had made a strategic move to utilise the services of the former TDP veteran. He could even be used to counter the campaign against Bro. Anilkumar and his wife Sharmila on the Bayyaram mines issue considering that Mr. Veerabhadra Rao had levelled serious allegations against the YSR family.

E3 was definitely an exciting event, but there was nothing that promoted the uniqueness of the iPhone quite like Seek 'n Spell. Due to the lack of meeting space at E3, we decided that it would be best to take the game out to its intended play area, the great outdoors (aka, outside the convention center).
The goal of Seek 'n Spell is to spell out a word with letters that are virtually hidden all around you. After you have found a nice, open area, the game starts by scattering a bunch of letters across your iPhone map. Using GPS technology, you run around the field in an attempt to make as many words as possible. In our attempt at a game, Jeff and I faced off in a battle to the death. The rules were simple… the first one to spell a word wins. Due to time constraints and bizarre LA rain, we were forced to play a short match. My attempt at glory was quickly thwarted by Jeff, spelling something dumb like "WIN". Apparently trying to spell "antidisestablishmentarianism" right off the bat wasn't a smart move. Such is life.
Although I lost, I had a blast nimbly jumping over concrete barriers to quickly grab the 25+ tiles I needed for my word (I only got 3). Apparently I'm not the only one that has had fun with the game in the last few weeks… COAP 2009 (Come Out And Play) awarded Seek 'n Spell with the "Best Use of Technology" award, which it definitely deserves.
Be sure to check out Seek 'n Spell in the App Store, and if you like it, join up with the Retronym team in San Fran for one of their soon to be legendary Seek 'n Spell meetups.

Qantas in China prison labour row
PUBLISHED: 26 Jun 2013 00:05:00 | UPDATED: 26 Jun 2013 11:08:06PUBLISHED: 26 Jun 2013 PRINT EDITION: 26 Jun 2013A representative from Dongguan City Joystar Electronic Co said his company, which uses prison labour for big orders, made 300,000 sets of disposable headphones for Qantas early last year.
Lisa Murray and Angus Grigg
Shanghai | Qantas, Electrolux and other international companies have purchased products, including airline headphones, made in a Chinese jail where inmates are regularly beaten and held in solitary confinement for failing to meet production targets.
Danny Cancian, a New Zealander released from Dongguan Prison last year, told The Australian Financial Review he made disposable headphones for Qantas, British Airways and Emirates.
Mr Cancian said he also made tiny inductors used in electrical appliances for local companies, including one which supplies Swedish giant Electrolux and Fortune 500 company Emerson.
Electrolux is a major player in Australia's home appliance market, selling under its own brand as well as Simpson, Kelvinator, Dishlex and Westinghouse.
All companies contacted denied any knowledge of the use of prison labour in their supply chain but Qantas, Electrolux and Emerson have initiated investigations following questions from the Financial Review.
A representative from Dongguan City Joystar Electronic Co said his company, which uses prison labour for big orders, made 300,000 sets of disposable headphones for Qantas early last year.
Those headphones were made to fill an order for Airphonics, the company Qantas confirmed was its main supplier.
Qantas said on Tuesday it had suspended its dealings with Airphonics while "we investigate further".
"Qantas is very concerned by these allegations," a company spokesman said in a written response to questions.
He said Airphonics had given written assurances there was no forced labour in any part of the supply chain and Qantas staff had audited headset manufacturing facilities in China as recently as May.
Five Australians held in Dongguan Prison
Five Australians, including travel entrepreneur Matthew Ng, are currently being held at Dongguan Prison in the southern Chinese province of Guangdong.
Mr Cancian, who spent four years in jail for manslaughter after a restaurant brawl, said that failure to meet production targets in Dongguan would mean "you are taken outside and tasered".
"It's a very cruel environment. You wake up every morning wondering if you are going to survive the day," he said.
Another former Dongguan inmate, who asked not to be named, confirmed he had made inductors as well as headphones for international airlines while serving a five-year sentence.
"Yes, I made them for the Australian airline Qantas, the one with the Kangaroo as its logo," he said. "We also made them for Emirates, British Airways and lots of others."
Both prisoners said the headphones were placed in boxes with the company's names on them and stacked up ready to leave the prison. However, the boxes for the Australian airline were misspelt as "Quantas".
"If they want to call me a liar then they should go there and have a look," said Mr Cancian.
"The airlines probably don't know where they are made."
British Airways said in a statement that all of its suppliers "are subject to a rigorous procurement process prior to appointment".
"We enforce compliance to a robust labour-standards policy throughout the duration of the contract," a BA spokesman said in a written statement.
BA said its supplier, Linstol, had advised it "they only use credited factories when producing headsets".
Trucks leaving the prison
Despite repeated questions from the Financial Review, Emirates refused to provide the name of its supplier or any other details on procurement.
In a three-line statement a spokesman said its headphones were made by an "industry-leading company" that supplies more than 200 other airlines.
"Emirates has had a long relationship with this supplier and is satisfied that there is no evidence of any unethical practices in the headset manufacturing process," the statement said.
During separate visits to Dongguan in May and June, the Financial Review saw dozens of trucks leaving the factory complex at the prison.
One of those bore the logo for Dongguan Dazhong Electronic Co, which lists Emerson and Electrolux among its major clients.
Electrolux confirmed that Dazhong was an indirect supplier – "supplying components to some of our subcontractors".
The company hasn't been the subject of a code-of-conduct audit partly because "that requires the kind of access normally only granted in a direct business relationship", an Electrolux spokesman said in a written response.
The allegations are so serious they are performing an audit this week, the company said.
"If any small part of our products are made under such conditions as you describe, it would be a clear violation of our code of conduct," the spokesman said.
"At the same time, your question does put the spotlight on the complex issue of evaluating and maintaining control over indirect suppliers who are several steps removed, as they number in the tens and even hundreds of thousands."
Dazhong also listed Huawei as one of its main clients on the company's website, but after inquiries from the Financial Review, the reference was removed.
Huawei ended contract
A spokesman for Huawei said it had previously sourced components from an associated company of Dazhong but "ended our last contract with the company in 2002".
Emerson, which is a New York Stock Exchange-listed company, has 135,000 employees and had worldwide sales of $US24.4 billion last year, said it was "investigating the matter".
"All Emerson vendors are expected to abide by the Emerson Supplier Code of Conduct," the company said in a statement.
Dazhong told the Financial Review it did not use any prison labour but could not explain why its truck was seen leaving the factory area of the prison.
Inductors, or transformers as they are sometimes called, are the most basic component of home appliances and other electrical products.
They are used to regulate power supply, but are difficult to manufacture mechanically.
That means they are usually hand-made by winding copper wire around a small ceramic cylinder using a crochet hook.
Mr Cancian said the repetitive nature of the work left him with painful arthritis in his right thumb, index finger and shoulder.
He said some prisoners' hands were "deformed" after making inductors for long periods.
Matthew Ng's wife, Niki Chow, said her husband had never talked about conditions inside Dongguan, as a guard was always present during their meetings.
Mr Ng, who is serving an 11 ½-year sentence after being found guilty of embezzlement, has applied for a prison transfer back to Australia, even though he will have no further avenues for appeal and will be required to serve out his full sentence.
Compulsory for inmates to work
Attempts by the Financial Review to interview Dongguan prison management have so far been unsuccessful.
The use of prison labour is not denied by Chinese authorities, who have made it compulsory for inmates to work while they serve sentences.
Mr Cancian, who has become an advocate for prisoners' rights since his release, said inmates worked more than 70 hours a week and were severely punished for slow production rates.
In China, prisons are required to be self-funding and in many ways are run like private enterprises.
But any profits are not returned to the local government: instead they are often shared between the warden and prison guards.
Prisoners in Dongguan are paid 8 yuan ($1.40) a month for their labour, which is only slightly more than it costs to buy a cake of soap in the prison shop.
"They claimed it was not slave labour because they paid us," said Mr Cancian.
He said the jail held 5400 inmates, who worked in 15 different factories within the prison compound.
According to the International Centre for Prison Studies there were 1.64 million people in Chinese prisons at mid-2012 – not including those in extra-judicial detention.
Foreign prisoners make up 0.3 per cent of those jailed.

Yale Pulls Yacht Club Expansion Plan
by Emma Zehner & Marcia Chambers | Jul 15, 2014 12:47 pm | Comments (6)
After Short Beach residents and their attorneys described a long and difficult relationship with the Yale Corinthian Yacht Club (YCYC), Yale's attorneys shifted course in their expansion plans, withdrawing their application to build a massive boat storage building in the heart of a small seaside residential community.
Joseph L. Hammer, one of Yale's attorneys, told a crowded, standing-room-only audience Monday at the Branford Fire Headquarters that Yale has "heard your concerns. We still think the property does present an opportunity to improve the yacht club without expanding the programs and without expanding the number of boats." He said Yale will improve the plan. "It will be resubmitted."

Until They All Find a Home
by Sally E. Bahner | May 18, 2014 9:09 pm
It was a magical night, one that paid tribute to people and causes near and dear to many hearts.
At the forefront were two people (among many) who have dedicated their lives to the welfare of animals: Eunice Lasala, volunteer extraordinaire, and Joe Dwyer, spokesman for Daniel the Beagle, who both went against lucrative mainstream pathways as a result of their love for animals.
Animal Carnivale, a fundraiser for the Dan Cosgrove Animal Shelter on May 9, set the stage for the tributes.

Harbour Village Home "Unlivable" After Fire
by Sally E. Bahner | Jan 6, 2014 8:21 am | Comments (1)
A fire at the Harbour Village condominiums on Saturday afternoon was knocked down in about 20 minutes by Branford firefighters.
According to Fire Chief Jack Ahern, thawing pipes in a unit aggravated a smoldering fire condition within a wall. He said the unit is not livable because firefighters needed to tear into walls and cut into the floor to gain access into the crawl space.
"There's lots of water and smoke damage," he said, adding the other units in the section (four total) received smoke damage.

Wilson Arms Plant Relocates To Branford
by Diana Stricker | Dec 6, 2013 12:30 pm
A local industry is expanding in Branford, and plans for a housing development on Gould Lane are progressing.
That is the upshot of two recent commission meetings in town.
Wilson Arms, which manufactures gun barrels, is expanding production and consolidating operations by relocating its Wisconsin plant to Branford.
Hugo Vivero, owner of the Wilson Arms facility at 97 Leetes Island Rd., received unanimous approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) for site plans at an existing building at 48 North Branford Rd. Vivero told the Eagle that he plans to purchase the property, renovate the building and move machinery from his plant in Bristol, Wisconsin. He hopes the move will be complete by the end of January.

Inland Wetlands Asks Tough Questions On Flooding, Failed Projects
by Diana Stricker | Aug 21, 2013 6:18 am
Members of Branford's Inland Wetlands Commission are taking recent history into account as they deliberate a proposed housing project on Gould Lane. They are asking the developer to consider the impact of super storms on drainage and flooding issues.
"We're getting 50- and 100-year storms all the time," said Commissioner Richard Orson. Current town standards require developers to design drainage structures to withstand 25-year storms; Orson said recent superstorms have resulted in widespread flooding in various sections of town. He said the frequency of storms in the past few years has caused the commission to become a "bit over-cautious."

Things are looking up—literally—for the DeRosa family, whose waterfront home in Short Beach was damaged by both Tropical Storm Irene and Super Storm Sandy.
The 100-year-old home at 294 Shore Dr. has been elevated above flood levels, and work on the new foundation is nearing completion.
"Now it's the best thing we ever did," said Mary Ellen DeRosa. "We left the dishes in the cupboards, and nothing broke. That's how perfect it was raised," she said. "It was the easiest thing, once we made the decision."

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released a new video that showcases how cellulosic biofuel technologies can help decrease U.S. dependence on foreign oil, spur growth in the domestic biofuels industry and provide new revenue opportunities to farmers, according to a DOE news release.
The video, shot at a harvesting equipment demonstration in Emmetsburg, IA, highlights the production of ethanol from cellulose fibers in corncobs. The technology generates a new opportunity for farmers to harvest and sell cobs they'd normally leave in fields. To date, DOE has committed over $1 billion to 27 cost-shared biorefinery projects.

If perhaps it turned out as fundamental as "seen on TV". Pounds just disappear. Just what it often doesn't show could be the investment of time and effort required. It took years to use on the pounds yet many of us expect instant gratification in terms of fat loss.
Sure it may need effort there is however a product that can help. Yacon syrup has been known due to the many nutrients. It can be low in calories and sugar and has been known to get an excellent antioxidant. Studies show that it is a better antioxidant than both mushrooms and eggplants.
The plant accustomed to produce the syrup is grown within the Andes Mountain and has been known for its numerous health benefits. In Brazil the leaves are dried plus a tea is made. The tea is considered anti-diabetic along with the theory is supported around the international stage. Bolivia agrees in their health benefits and many find it being an aid in renal and digestive issues.
With claims that fat loss is possible in all of the categories- weight, waist, and bmi reality TV took notice when Dr. Oz challenged guests to try the syrup. The results indicate that this weight-loss cooking with your yacon syrup were legitimate. The project lasted 4 weeks with 40 women finishing the study. The rules were simple. Do not make positive changes to routine. Add just the syrup. Since the disclaimer states, "your results may vary" a number -73%-of the women lost typically 2.9 pounds (a total of 153 pounds-great) using a reduction of 1.9 inches within the waist. Not bad when no additional exercises are added.
Further evidence deals with the recent Argentine study carried out by Clinical Nutrient. This 120 day study followed 55 Argentine ladies who were motivated to walk forty-five minutes twice and to slightly reduce their calories. By building a tiny bit of exercise and reduction of calories the results were more dramatic. Throughout the 6 months the ladies lost an average of 33 pounds and four inches across the waist.
Not only does the benefit occur in weight loss but in your overall health at the same time. Research indicates the application of yacon syrup can improve both insulin and cholesterol levels.
Based upon studies this appears a lot of the people would reap the benefits of yacon syrup of their diet. Many people have high blood sugar plus a diet without sufficient fiber. This is the audience.
There are many issues that make the application of yacon syrup inappropriate. Those with allergies to sunflower seeds and related products should avoid the syrup. Like all programs check first together with your Dr. to insure utilizing the yacon syrup is going to be beneficial if you are pregnant or nursing.
The all natural syrup similar in taste to figs and the consistency of molasses have numerous benefits. As the major catch maybe weight loss the huge benefits to general health can not be overlooked whether taken as a syrup or included in your recipes.

Iran speaker touts surplus uraniumAP PHOTO
Iran's Parliament speaker Ali Larijani answers a question during a press conference on the sidelines of the 129th Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), in Geneva, Switzerland, Wednesday.GENEVA — Iran has more enriched uranium than it needs for its research and would be willing to discuss the "surplus" with Western powers during nuclear talks next week, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani said Wednesday.
In an Associated Press interview, Larijani said Iran is open to discussions about what to do with the 20 percent enriched uranium that it doesn't need. Iran has reported to the U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency that it has turned half of its 20 percent enriched uranium into a powder form that cannot easily be used to make weapons-grade fuel.
"We have some surplus, you know, the amount that we don't need. But over that we can have some discussions," he said in Farsi, through his English translator.
A key concession sought by Western powers in negotiations is for Iran to stop enriching uranium to 20 percent. Larijani said Iran produced the enriched uranium itself because the IAEA would not provide it, and insisted it needs the material only for research and isotopes for medical treatments, not for nuclear weapons.
He indicated a willingness to negotiate on that, too.
"Through the process of negotiations, yes, things can be said and they can discuss this matter," he said, on the sidelines of a meeting of the world organization of parliaments.
The talks on Iran's nuclear program will be held next week with the five permanent U.N. Security Council members — the U.S., Russia, China, Britain, France — plus Germany, collectively known as the P5+1.
The U.S. and its allies accuse Iran of using its civilian nuclear program as a cover to develop nuclear weapons, and the P5+1 want Tehran to stop enriching uranium to 20 percent, a grade that is only a technical step away from the level used to arm nuclear warheads. It then wants the 20-percent stockpile transferred out of the country.
The group also demands that Iran agree to shut down its bomb-resistant underground bunker known as Fordo, where it is enriching uranium to 20 percent, before discussing sanctions relief on Iranian oil and financial transactions.
Iran's nuclear chief, Ali Akbar Salehi, has not publicly specified what measures Tehran might take to ease Western concerns that its nuclear program could one day produce atomic weapons. The sanctions, which have imposed hardship on Iran's people, have done little to accomplish the aim of stopping Iran's expanding nuclear program.
President Barack Obama disclosed in an AP interview last Friday that U.S. intelligence agencies believe Iran continues to be a year or more away from building a nuclear weapon, in contrast to Israel's assessment that Tehran is much closer.
Obama and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani have spoken on the phone — becoming the first U.S. and Iranian leaders to have direct contact in more than 30 years. Larijani acknowledged that has upset some hard-liners in Iran.
"They are a little bit pessimistic about it, suspicious. So, they have their own sway, and they put pressure, but we do support Mr. Rouhani. And God willing, he will have the parliament's support" in the nuclear talks, Larijani said.
Larijani, formerly Iran's top nuclear negotiator, said he believes there will be no progress next week unless the U.S. offers to curtail some of the West's crippling economic sanctions.
He said "it is too soon to pass any judgment" on whether U.S.-Iranian diplomatic ties might be restored. Switzerland now represents U.S. diplomatic interests in Iran.
The countries broke ties after the 1979 Islamic Revolution, when mobs stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran. A total of 52 hostages were held for 444 days.
At a news conference Wednesday in Geneva, Larijani told reporters the upcoming nuclear negotiation "mostly concerns building confidence rather than a commercial give-and-take." They are a continuation of talks that began in 2003 between Iran and Britain, France and Germany, and later expanded to include the United States, Russia and China, but have failed so far to achieve any substantive progress.
"My feeling is that Iran wants to see a resolution to the matter through political negotiations," he said. "I look at the upcoming negotiations positively."MORE IN Wire NewsBOSTON The question, for all practical purposes, is no longer whether Dzhokhar Tsarnaev took...

1. Be YOU in your family photo.
Don't go out and buy outfits that you would never otherwise wear. Match your outfits with the style and personality of your family.
Here is a holiday photo of myself and Lillian from 2011. I LOVE polka dots so I decided to include them as a pattern for our shoot. I also love shoes...
2. Ditch the matchy-matchy.
Instead, coordinate outfits based loosely on a color scheme or theme. Not sure where to begin selecting a color palette? Find a piece you love and want someone to wear. Then coordinate around that. Choose three to four complementary colors and then wear different combinations of those colors, with each person wearing at least two of the colors to tie them in with the rest of the group.
3. The families of color:
- Group One: Jewel tones (ruby red, sapphire blue, emerald green)
- Group Two: Pastels (pastel blue like worn demin, pastel pink, pastel green, pastel yellow, peach)
- Group Three: Earth tones (pumpkin orange, eggplant purple, sage green, chocolate brown).
- Group Four: Cool vs Warm tones (cool colors are blue and green, warm tones are reds, yellows, oranges). Sometimes colors from each of these groups compliment each other: pumpkin orange with denim blue)
4. Inspiration...

BHP deferral sounds alarm
PUBLISHED: 23 Aug 2012 00:11:42 | UPDATED: 23 Aug 2012 05:56:10PUBLISHED: 23 Aug 2012 PRINT EDITION: 23 Aug 2012The Australian Financial Review
The decision by BHP Billiton to defer $40 billion in investment in expansion projects at Olympic Dam in South Australia and at Port Hedland's outer harbour in Western Australia is a wake-up call for Australia to make the most of our resources boom opportunities.
It is the first major mining project to be put on ice, with BHP citing the weaker outlook for commodity prices and rising costs as the reasons for the pullback. Announcing its results yesterday, BHP said price falls cut revenue by $2 billion, while development and construction costs surged $2.7 billion with one-third of this attributable to labour and contractors and industrial action at Queensland Coal.
BHP was also under pressure from shareholders who were sceptical that the company's ambitious five-year $80 billion capital investment program would yield the required returns. The decision will be particularly difficult for South Australia, which had tied its future economic growth to the massive $20 billion plus Olympic Dam open pit development that had been expected to result in billions of dollars invested in the state and substantial job creation. SA Premier Jay Weatherill was understandably angry with the news yesterday, but his virtual threat to BHP saying that future development permission would "come at a cost" was unwise as BHP remains a major investor in the state.
However, BHP's about-face holds stark lessons for Australia. There was little SA's government could do to change this outcome, as BHP assessed the risks and returns of its investments in response to changing market conditions. But the federal government should understand that mining "super profits" are not guaranteed. Australia is in a competition with other resource-rich countries, and the BHP decision is a timely warning that we have allowed our cost base to increase too far and too fast thanks to our overegulated labour market and overbearing environmental regulations. BHP chairman Jac Nasser warned earlier this year that uncertainty surrounding our tax regime could deter investment: this is further evidence that tax reform is needed.
BHP's optimism that the China-led resources boom would be "stronger for longer" has been tempered. The industrialisation of Asia will certainly continue, but our "China luck" will be characterised by cycles. The much-touted investment pipeline that government ministers boast of looks likely to be pared back, as will forecasts of tax revenue. Australia must manage this inevitable volatility by not making spending commitments that will be unsustainable when the times get tough. We should not spend our Asia boom bounty on new entitlements such as parental leave, schools or disability insurance until cuts to wasteful government spending are identified and delivered. Otherwise we will be left with little to show for this once-in-a-century opportunity.

Immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry (IP/MS) has recently emerged as a preferred method in the analysis of protein complex components and cellular protein networks. Targeting endogenous protein complexes of higher eukaryotes, particularly in large-scale efforts, has been challenging due to cellular heterogeneity, high proteome complexity, and, compared to lower organisms, lack of efficient in-locus epitope-tagging techniques. It is further complicated by variability in nonspecific identifications and cross-reactivity of primary antibodies. Still, the study of endogenous human protein networks is highly desired despite its challenges. Here we describe a streamlined IP/MS protocol for the purification and identification of extended endogenous protein complexes. We investigate the sources of nonspecific protein binding and develop semiquantitative specificity filters that are based on peptide spectral count measurements. We also outline logical constraints for the derivation of accurate complex composition from IP/MS data and demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach by presenting our analyses of different transcriptional coregulator complexes. We show consistent purification of novel components for the Integrator complex, analyze the composition of the Mediator complex solely from our data to demonstrate the wide usability of spectral counts, and deconvolute heterogeneous HDAC1/2 networks into core complex modules and several novel subcomplex interactions.

everything great. some cheaper bar food options would be nice and we would have eaten in the bar/restaurant more often.
Overall a lovely place to have visited for a relaxing new year break with the family.
The lodge was lovely, spacious and well equipped. We visited some of the local areas while we were there and the onsite facilities were just enough to keep the kids amused for a couple of days,
We all enjoyed our break, kids loved It.
The lodge with the hot tub was absolutely amazing, very modern and everything we needed, even a Christmas tree. It had a great site location and the views and the surroundings were beautiful. We had a very relaxing experience. The staff were lovely and we would love to stay there again.
I did fill in a questionnaire when we left. We all had a fabulous time and the staff were great.
A lot of the furniture and soft furnishing needs updating. Staff very good.
The accommodation was modern, warm and comfortable. Attention to detail was demonstrated as the lodge was also well-equipped. The intention was to go for a restful break over the New Year which we achieved, but it was also good for more active families as there is a good-sized indoor swimming pool and a small gym. The only slight complaint I have is that the roof in the upstairs gym was leaking and so the staff had to place a bucket to catch the water in rather close range to the rowing machines. Overall with the pleasant surrounding countryside and dramatic views, we would definitely stay here again and would recommend. However, as stated before, we stayed in a new lodge; I can't say what the older ones are like.
Tried the green room spa there, was nice. The swimming pool and the gym were also wonderful. Very handy location, close to Tesco and several pubs. There are also some nice places close by, such as the 1066 sports centre, Hastings old town, Bodiam castle and vineyard.
We went for New Year. The lodge was lovely and warm and the staff had laid out the dining table with crackers, party poppers and rocket balloons, along with a tin of sweets and a Christmas Card. There was a little Christmas tree in the lodge and a bag of decorations - the kids enjoyed that. There was a New year party in the club house, which was good. The swimming pool is lovely.
Nice park and helpful staff
A lovely place to stay
Rather expensive to not include towels but a lovely quiet friendly site with the option of expansion the leisure facilities. Will be a shame to spoil it with more accommodation as this is a hidden gem.
Peaceful location. Not too far from a nice walk on the beach. Shame the adventure playground was completely unusable with young children. Really need speed humps or some sort of restriction past chalets. Too fast, dangerous and noisy.
Excellent holiday. The Minnesota lodge cleaned by Julie was immaculate and beautifully presented. Please pass this feedback to her. The site and country views from the lodge is breathtaking. The food in the restaurant fantastic and our complements to the chef. The swimming pool gorgeous and nice warm water for our children. The staff all professional and helpful. Our family would love to return this year and will be looking to book two lodges again as lovely for all the family to be in two lodges next to each other. Thank you for a special family holiday at Crowhurst Park.

HANOI – There were half a dozen ticket sellers behind the counter at Vietnam's new aquarium, a Vinpearl venue inside the capital's newest Vincom "Mega Mall." Perhaps 30 customers were queuing up between ropes set out to create first-come, first-served order. We were near the front when my wife, herself, noticed the jerk who blithely cut ahead of the crowd.

Five Questions with Chase Rice
Newcomer Chase Rice is quickly catching the attention of the country music industry and fans alike. The independent singer/songwriter, who moved to Nashville after playing football at the University of North Carolina and working for NASCAR on the Hendrick Motorsports pit crew, has opened for acts like Florida Georgia Line, Jake Owen, and Lee Brice (just to name a few!). In addition, Rice is a co-writer on FGL's smash hit "Cruise" and his currently promoting his single, "How She Rolls." The track has picked up a lot of steam on Sirius XM's The Highway and has sold a considerable amount of downloads, despite any push from a record label.
We recently caught up with Chase to chat about his single, his new tour, and more. See what he had to say below.
CMIL: You recently re-mixed "How She Rolls" and re-released it as a single. What was the reasoning behind that?
CR: It was on the Dirt Road Communion album. We took it off 'cause we wanted to keep that whole album up, but we wanted to move forward with some better sounding material. That album is something I produced myself and it doesn't sound as good as we want it to sound now with what we're moving toward. So we reproduced it, remixed it, put it out, and that's what The Highway has been playing and that's what people have been buying like crazy. We're probably going to remix it a little bit more because whenever my new EP comes out, which I think we're planning on for the early fall.
CMIL: Sirius XM's The Highway seems to be a big supporter of new and independent artists. What does it mean to you for them to take a chance playing your music?
CR: John Marks is the man behind that. He met with the FGL (Florida Georgia Line) boys. I remember the day that Brian [Kelley] came home from that meeting and he said, "Dude, we just met with John Marks. I think he's going to start playing 'Cruise' on The Highway" and that was back when we were the only ones that even knew it. I don't know what it takes for people to just want to help other people, but he's one of those guys. He enjoys his job and enjoys knowing he can help artists possibly achieve what they've been working for, for so long. You can't thank someone enough for that because they're going out of their way to take a chance on you and help you achieve your dreams and that's what he's doing for me and that's a huge, huge thing.
CMIL: Tell us about your upcoming Ready Set Roll Tour.
CR: It came about from Brian O'Connell from Live Nation. He's just been a big fan of what we've been doing for a while now. We've just been touring like crazy. That's how my career is being established, through touring not through radio. Not to say that that radio is not going to happen, it just hasn't yet. I started touring and Brian caught wind of it and caught wind of how many tickets we've been selling. He thought it'd be a good idea to do an actual official tour through Live Nation and the House of Blues and we're really excited about it. There aren't a whole lot of people who have the opportunity to do a Live Nation tour without a label being involved, so I'm pumped about it. Touring is my specialty. That's what I've based everything on, so I'm amped to get out there and do it.
CMIL: You've accomplished quite a bit as an independent artist. What's been the biggest obstacle so far?
CR: Kenny Chesney once told Jake Owen this and Jake told me. He said, "No matter what you do in your entire career, make sure you stay on people's radios." He's smart for that because it's free. Getting on the radio is not free, labels pay for it, but you get in their ears when they're driving down the road. Then it's a constant reminder that you're there. When you don't have a label pushing your music to radio, that's a form of advertising that's not there. That's a pretty huge obstacle to overcome right there. Everyone else is playing on the radio and playing a concert to remind fans that they are there, I'm not. So I decided to just go about it a different way through touring, putting on live shows and making sure those people come out. In the beginning, they were coming at a hundred at a time and now, they're coming in thousands. A lot of people sometimes don't take you seriously at first. A lot of people didn't for me for a long time, and now all of a sudden, people in Nashville are taking notice. I'm getting texts from old friends like, "Dang, dude you're actually doing this thing!" It's kind of a little nice way for me to know that I'm actually making an impact.
CMIL: What's it like pursuing a career and living out your dreams alongside your friends, like the guys in FGL and other buddies you've made along the way?
CR: I get to do one of the coolest things ever; touring and traveling and getting to do music. My brother works at BBT in banking and he calls me every day and tells me how much he hates me and how he wants my job. Not only do I get to do that, I get to do it with some of my best friends. That definitely helps, especially when we're all on the road and at a show. When we run into them on the road it's like "Hey, what's up dude?" It's nice to have a little bit of familiarity. We were out in the state of Washington and you run into one of your best friends since you were little and you know you guys are doing it together. It's a pretty cool thing.

Finka -- a funky spelling of the Spanish word for "farm" -- made a splash when it opened in early July as a stylish gastropub with an Asian and South American flair. There's a ten-drink cocktail list created by Bar Lab, the duo behind hipster hideaway Broken Shaker, alongside a barrage of eclectic-sounding dishes pulled from a pantry filled with homemade kimchee, ají amarillo, and vaca frita. Now the place buzzes at all hours.
