The sacred month is upon us. People expect more from you this month -- your husband/wife, ailing parents, young schoolgoers who have decided to fast for the first time -- so much so that it is hard to prioritise. Let the last week leading to Ramadan be the week you plan ahead for the month, both for your spiritual and worldly needs. Let this be the start of a blessed and peaceful time. Ramadan Karim!
"Therapeutic fasting is not a mystical or magical cure. It works because the body has the capacity to heal itself when the obstacles to healing are removed. Health is the normal state. Most chronic diseases are the inevitable consequence of a lifestyle that exposes us to disease-causing stressors. Fasting gives the body an interlude without those stressors so that it can speedily repair or accomplish healing that could not otherwise occur in the feeding state."
- Joel Fuhrman, M.D., in Fasting and Eating for Health
The dos…
Avoid gorging yourself when breaking the fast at sunset. Break your fast with dates and either milk or water. After the Maghrib prayers, continue with a light starter such as soup and crackers. After a long period of fasting, you need to bring your fluids and blood sugar level up without overdoing it.
…and the don'ts
Caffeine withdrawal is the most common cause of headache while fasting. Scientists outline several steps for avoiding Ramadan headaches like reducing caffeine consumption in the weeks leading up to Ramadan. If it's too late to give up your double latte or diet cola, physicians recommend a cup of strong coffee/tea at sehri, just before the start of the fast, saying this may prevent a caffeine withdrawal headache.
A good deed
Let a positive vibe overwhelm the pessimism that you might be feeling. The pre-Ramadan schedule is possibly already hectic but amidst all the chaos, even some of your simplest actions can make a difference. Make it a point to greet not just your friends and relatives but also the salesman at the grocery shop, the rickshaw-puller or any random person you meet in the course of the day. Let Salam --"Peace" -- be the word.
A good read
Dr. Maya Angelou is one of the most renowned and influential voices of our time. Hailed as a global renaissance woman, Dr. Angelou is a celebrated poet, memoirist, novelist, educator, dramatist, producer, actress, historian, filmmaker, and civil rights activist.
"I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" is one of her many autobiographical novels about her early years. In the course of the book Maya transforms from a victim of racism with an inferiority complex into a self-possessed, dignified young woman capable of responding to prejudice. A soulful read.
Detox metre
If you still think flaxseed (Isabgol) was only for those suffering from constipation and was nothing more than an excellent laxative, it's time you revised your opinion. Flaxseeds alone contain a large amount of essential omega -3 fatty acid and may play a significant role in detoxifying the body. Detoxification is done by removing impurities from the blood in the liver, where toxins are processed for elimination. The body also eliminates toxins through the kidneys, intestines, lungs, lymph and skin. However, when this system is compromised, impurities are not properly filtered and every cell in the body is adversely affected. So make sure you soak isabgol husks overnight and consume with your iftar drink. It is nutritious as well as tasty!

Match Preview
Rovers duo struggling Ryan Nelsen and Michel Salgado are doubts for Blackburn when Fulham visit after both limped off against Manchester City last weekend. Nelsen suffered a kick to the instep and Salgado a thigh injury and both will have fitness tests just before the match. Keith Andrews (groin) remains sidelined. Sam Allardyce has claimed neither he nor Mark Hughes were given enough time at bigger clubs - and insisted he would win the title every year if he were manager of Real Madrid or Manchester United. Allardyce and Hughes cross swords as managers of mid-ranking clubs, Blackburn and Fulham respectively, with the Rovers boss denying that both men have found their true level. Hughes was sacked by Manchester City last season while Allardyce's spell in charge of Newcastle lasted less than half a campaign. Allardyce insisted however: "I'm not suited to Bolton or Blackburn, I would be more suited to Inter Milan or Real Madrid. "It wouldn't be a problem to me to go and manage those clubs because I would win the double or the league every time. "Give me Manchester United or Chelsea and I would do the same, it wouldn't be a problem. "It's not where I'm suited to, it's just where I've been for most of the time. "It's not a problem to take me into the higher reaches of the Champions League or Premier League and would make my job a lot easier in winning it." Hughes has made a good start at Fulham, one of five teams still unbeaten in the top flight, and the trip to Ewood Park will be a return to old stomping grounds where he spent three seasons as a player and four years as manager. Allardyce believes the Welshman was hard done-by at City, saying: "His Manchester City reign obviously was not long enough. A little bit like me at Newcastle, but I didn't last quite as long as Sparky though. "He was given the chance and unfortunately at that stage of his career they decided to have a change. "You look back on it and he'll be very disappointed because they only lost two games I think. But that is the way it is sometimes, there's a perception that other people can do better than you, but often the reality is not the case. "He decided that Fulham was the place for him, he's taken over what he's described in his own words as a very good team and he's started where they left off last season." Fulham winger Damien Duff should be available after recovering from a calf injury. Bobby Zamora is out for five months with a broken ankle while Andrew Johnson (knee) is three to four weeks away from a first-team return. Rafik Halliche and Fredrik Stoor (both groin) are doubts while Philippe Senderos (Achilles) is a long-term absentee. Diomansy Kamara (foot) is back in training but David Stockdale (ankle) has three more weeks on the sidelines.

Match Report
Dempsey lifts Cottagers Clint Dempsey ensured Fulham maintained their unbeaten start to the Barclays Premier League season after Blackburn had threatened to overwhelm Mark Hughes' side on his return to Ewood Park. Chris Samba had given Sam Allardyce's Rovers the half-time lead in controversial circumstances while Fulham had barely had a sniff of goal. The second half was a different story, however, as Hughes' men had much the better of the match and secured a 1-1 scoreline that was on balance a fair result. Blackburn were unchanged with 18-year-old Phil Jones, who played with distinction as the holding midfield player against Manchester City, impressing again in a different role to his usual position in central defence. Former Rovers player and manager Hughes chose an old Blackburn team-mate Damien Duff to take the place of Bobby Zamora, who suffered a broken leg last week. Blackburn were utterly dominant for much of the opening half, starting when Nikola Kalinic won an early free-kick in a dangerous spot right on the corner of the area - another inch and it would have been a penalty - but Fulham were able to clear. Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer came close to having a nightmare afternoon with a series of fumbles. The first nearly led to the opening goal but Brede Hangeland managed to head clear off the line after his fellow Norwegian - and good friend - Morten Gamst Pedersen delicately chipped in the loose ball. Jones hooked over from the ensuing long throw-in and, when Fulham did finally conjure up a meaningful opportunity, Dempsey drifted the direct free-kick well wide. Mame Biram Diouf looked to be in on goal but his control deserted him at the critical point, and the Senegalese striker then claimed a penalty when he was challenged by Hangeland, though it appeared the big Norwegian just nicked the ball away. Hangeland was then booked for going through the same player and, from the free-kick, the goal that Blackburn had been threatening finally arrived. Paul Robinson hoisted the ball high and with Schwarzer again looking uncertain - and some shoving by El-Hadji Diouf not helping Fulham's cause - Samba won the heading lottery to loop the ball into the empty net. Hughes reacted with anger on the touchline, provoking good-natured jeers from the home crowd, and his mood would not have been improved when Robinson displayed superb agility to turn aside Carlos Salcido's impressing curling strike. Fulham looked much more positive in the second half and had a chance to get back on terms within seconds of the re-start but Simon Davies' direct free-kick was woeful. Dempsey made no mistake in the 56th minute, however, when Salcido floated across an inviting cross from left, beating Ryan Nelsen to the ball to plant a powerful header past Robinson for the equaliser. Schwarzer dropped the ball again under pressure from Samba as Blackburn tried to respond and this time referee Anthony Taylor awarded a free-kick when replays showed clearly there had been no foul. Benjani Mwaruwari came on for Kalinic to make his Blackburn debut and his header down gave Brett Emerton space for a snap-shot but he hit it straight at Schwarzer. Schwarzer's uncertainty continued to be a problem for the visitors and he was left grateful to his defence for keeping out El-Hadji Diouf after another fumble. Fulham were lucky to survive again when Salgado whipped a vicious ball across the face of goal, then Danny Murphy tricked the Spanish defender into conceding a free-kick on the edge of his box. Murphy tried to curl it into the top corner but Robinson never looked worried as it sailed over. The match might have been there for the taking for either side after that, but fear of defeat won the day as the game drifted into a stalemate.

Posted by Toby on Friday, April 25, 2008 at 11:06pm.
The reason I ask is because after spending some time studying the contributions of obese Americans in class, I am considering embracing the obese lifestyle.
I think that I want to become obese, but do the potential health risks outweigh the benefits of obesity?
There really are no practical benefits of being obese.
In some extreme circumstances, obesity may be beneficial. For example, if you live in very cold weather, your fat will maintain body heat.
That's one benefit, Leo. I also understand that obese people tend to be more successful in life because they have greater energy and stamina from carrying the extra weight around.
I am also thinking of how enjoyable a career in sumo wrestling would be.
Toby, to emphasize what Leo has said, "
There are NO benefits from being obese!!!!!!!!!"
Besides the many health and physical drawbacks , there are definite social and economical problems associated with obesity.
If you are overweight and don't know how to correct the problem, don't try to find a cop-out.
Being just slightly overweight can have some positive aspects.
Stop by your local heart clinic. IT is full of overweight folks, and nearly all are smokers. Help support your local cardiologist by being a walking heart attack.
I believe that the black man should rule the earth.
Hey uhmm i'm not dead.
I knew you were not dead. I just told my people that so that they could re-elect me.
Hahahahehehe your people are more dumb than you are.

Broadcaster Derryn Hinch has escaped jail but copped a $100,000 fine for contempt of court for breaching a suppression order relating to Adrian Ernest Bayley, who raped and killed Melbourne woman Jill Meagher.
Prosecutor John Langmead SC had said prison was one of the options before Victorian Supreme Court Justice Stephen Kaye, along with a large fine or a suspended sentence.
Hinch was found guilty of breaching a suppression order after revealing on his blog Bayley's parents had warned police before Ms Meagher's murder they feared their son would attack a woman.

Batofar, Paris
France 75013
Tel: 33 1 53 60 17 30
Metro: Quai de la Gare
Concierge.com's insider take:
Housed in a restored bateau-feu—a boat used to patrol waters after dark—tethered to the Left Bank of the Seine near the Bibliothèque Nationale, the Batofar is also a lighthouse for the electronica scene in Paris, with well-known international DJs regularly appearing on the monthly roster (expect to hear anything from indie-rock to funk, too), as well as live music. The groovy crowd clambers in year-round, as the boat's surprisingly commodious, with three bars and 1,000 square feet of dance space. When the fourth terrace bar opens in summer, the scene moves down to the quai, filling up the new (landlocked) "canteen." The perfect place to watch the sunrise is at one of the after-parties (held two Sundays a month; not regular, so check with venue).
Closed Mondays.

Unleash the power of your data to make better decisions and maximise performance.
The DUNS Number is a unique nine-digit identification sequence which provides unique identifiers of single business entities, while linking corporate family structures together.
The D&B DUNS Numbering system is a widely recognised standard for identifying businesses among thousands of companies, marketplaces and regulatory entities. Companies worldwide use the DUNS Number to link information about suppliers, customers and trading partners, providing a more complete picture of the risk and opportunity in their business relationships.
No other organisation has the capacity to identify, verify, and inter-relate businesses to find new customers, reduce credit exposure, generate vendor savings, and prevent fraud.
Frequently Asked Questions:
- Why do I need a DUNS Number?
- What's the value of a DUNS Number?
- How do I get a D&B DUNS Number?
- Obtain a DUNS Number for a business located in Australia
- How are DUNS Number assigned?
- Why should we provide information to D&B?
Why do I need a DUNS Number?
There is no charge to obtain a D&B DUNS Number for your business and it can make it easier for your customers and suppliers to do business with you.
Some customers now request that their suppliers obtain a DUNS Number before any transactions can take place.
The DUNS Number is easy to obtain, simple to use and accepted worldwide. The code can be assigned to each of your business locations to:
- act as a common classifier or identifier for invoices, requisitions, payments, shipping, customs clearance and other business documentation
- ease communications with your customers
- link your operation to parent companies, headquarters locations, branches or subsidiaries.
Applying DUNS Numbers to your internal files can help you:
- identify risk exposure and highlight cross-selling opportunities within the same corporate family group
- eliminate duplicate file entries and build your own value-added customer and supplier information warehouses
- streamline your e-commerce transactions and simplify communications
- integrate your internal systems by linking payables/receivables and tracking business documentation to the business entity and location level
- reduce operating costs by linking interrelated suppliers and leverage this knowledge to increase purchasing power
- uncover revenue opportunities by identifying prospects
- improve customer service by linking related customer accounts to support a "one-customer" view.
What's the value of a DUNS Number?
By embedding the DUNS Number at the core of your global marketing, credit and purchasing transactions, you can take data you already have and turn it into powerful business information. By combining your company's internal data with D&B's database and other marketplace information you can create a value-added information source within your own organisation.
Within Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), Customer Resource Management (CRM), and Customer Information Management (CIM) solutions, the D&B DUNS Number can help ensure more accurate data rationalisation. This means that you can have confidence in the quality of information you use to manage your business.
In database marketing applications the DUNS Number allows customers to quantify how much business they are already doing within a market sector or corporate family structure to enable more effective planning of new sales and marketing activities.
In credit applications and decision-support software systems, the DUNS Number can link customer files to respective parent companies to see total credit exposure. This insight into customers' corporate family structures means that credit limits can be managed intelligently and collection efforts prioritised.
In purchasing applications the DUNS Number enables a better understanding of your supplier base by helping identify duplicate records and providing linkage information on supplier family structures. This understanding allows you to leverage your purchasing power, cut purchasing process costs and reduce the number of redundant suppliers worldwide.
The DUNS Number can help ensure that receivables are carefully managed and properly targeted by pinpointing customer locations and identifying important corporate relationships.
With the growing use of electronic commerce as a form of transaction within the global economy, the DUNS Number has assumed a fresh importance as a unique means of identifying businesses during the online transaction and registration process. By leveraging the D&B global database and the DUNS Number, companies can authenticate, validate and establish business credentials, which will facilitate smart transactions and decisions at the speed of e-business.
For companies with a serious e-commerce strategy the use of the DUNS Number as a means of identifying suppliers, trading partners and customers will be of fundamental importance as global standards are established in this area. Companies wishing to be recognised as a credible supplier of online services can use their DUNS Number as a means of identification allowing potential customers to verify their business credentials before starting a trading relationship.
D&B links the DUNS Numbers of parents, subsidiaries, headquarters and branches on more than 86 million corporate family members around the world. Used by the world's most influential standards-setting organisations, it is recognised, recommended and/or required by more than 50 global, industry and trade associations, including the United Nations, the U.S. Federal Government, the Australian Government and the European Commission.
Corporate Linkage gives you the opportunity to see the whole picture. Our unique and proprietary DUNS Number is the catalyst for data quality.
In today's global economy, the DUNS Number has become the standard for keeping track of the world's businesses.

If you have questions about providing information to D&B, contact Client Services on 13 23 33 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
How are DUNS Number assigned?
The D&B D-U-N-S Number is owned and solely maintained by D&B. When a business is first entered into the D&B business information database, we assign each business location that has its own unique, separate and distinct operation, its own D&B D-U-N-S Number.
Separate D&B D-U-N-S Numbers can be assigned to single locations, parents, subsidiaries, headquarters and branches. If a branch operates in the same location as its headquarters, it will have a different D&B D-U-N-S Number, provided its operations are distinct and separate. Every D&B D-U-N-S Number has a built-in check digit to help ensure accuracy.
Why should we provide information to D&B?
Your suppliers
Complete information can be the difference between winning or losing an account. Your suppliers will request credit information on potential and existing customers. In today's volatile economy more and more businesses are using third-party sources to monitor the status of their client portfolios so if you are bidding for a new contract or are reliant on other suppliers, make sure the information we hold tells the complete story of your business.
Your business can have a distinct advantage over your competitors who do not provide information to D&B. D&B's information is used increasingly for receivable management, purchasing and for pre-screening businesses prior to a marketing campaign or a special promotion. Is your information up to date so that you receive the best terms suppliers have to offer? Increased efficiencies and cost effectiveness can usually be passed on to you. Those savings can then be translated into lower expenses and give you the edge in your industry.
Your time
In today's fast-paced world, the inclination to have customers fill out lengthy credit applications is diminishing, while the tendency to refer to third-party information, such as D&B's is increasing. In some cases, D&B is even assisting companies in managing and assessing their credit risks by performing a range of custom designed services. How are we able to do this? The past is frequently a prediction of the future and D&B has capitalised on that. We have developed powerful predictive scoring models that can assist companies in deciding the likelihood of future business failure or late payments. In the final analysis, any application process will be quicker if your D&B information is complete and up to date.
Our Reputation
D&B began in 1841 as a credit reporting agency and continues today as one of the leading providers of business-to-business credit, marketing, purchasing, receivables management and decision-support services worldwide. We maintain the world's largest database of more than 86 million businesses. We keep track of those businesses with our nine-digit identification code - the D&B D-U-N-S Number and are uniquely positioned to support B2B e-commerce.
Obtaining a D&B D-U-N-S Number is the first step toward establishing an information file about your business with D&B.
It's Free of Charge
That's right! There is no monetary cost to you to help keep your D&B information up to date. The maintenance of your D&B record is paid for by the other businesses that access it.
If you have questions about providing information to D&B contact Client Services on 13 23 33 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Since the D&B D-U-N-S Number was introduced in 1962, it has dramatically grown in use and is recognised as a global business identification standard for:
- American National Standards Institute ANSI ASC X12 -- since 1989
- United Nations/Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce and Transport/UN EDIFACT Council -- since 1991
- European Commission (EDIRA)
- International Standards Organisation (ISO) -- since 1993
- United States Federal Government
- Electronic Commerce Acquisition Team (ECAT) -- since 1994
- Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)
- United States Postal Service (USPS)
- North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)
- Australian Federal Government
- All Commonwealth & Department agencies
- Endorsed Supplier Arrangement (ESA)
As part of the United States President's mandate to streamline the procurement process through the use of electronic commerce, the US Federal Government has adopted the D&B D-U-N-S Number as a principal contractor identification code.
This means that suppliers doing business with government agencies via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) will be required to submit their D&B D-U-N-S Number as part of the registration and transaction processes. The D&B D-U-N-S Number is a unique identifier assigned and maintained by D&B on more than 86 million businesses worldwide. It will be used to meet government objectives for electronic commerce - including providing a single face to industry, reducing duplication of effort whilst increasing speed of service.
There is no cost to businesses for obtaining their own D&B D-U-N-S Numbers. Since the first step in every business to business transaction is proper identification of trading partners, the D&B D-U-N-S Number is an ideal tool. With its distinctive ability to identify and link businesses, the D&B D-U-N-S Number helps eliminate errors in e-commerce transactions and serves as a consistent trading partner identifier across internal business applications including Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) packages such as SAP, SAS, Siebel and Oracle.

ITV has partnered with US-based Roku to make the broadcaster's ITV Player catch-up service available on Roku's internet boxes in the UK
The agreement will allow Roku users to use the ITV player channel to catch up on content across ITV, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4 and CITV from the last 30 days on their main TV.
ITV's Director of Pay and Distribution Martin Goswami said: "A key part of our strategy is to make our content accessible on multiple platforms and we are delighted to be working with Roku to bring our programmes to their devices."
It comes a week after Sky's mobile service Sky GO added ITV's channel line-up to its services for the first time.
The BBC also launched a BBC sport app for Roku devices in the UK, which will provide sports news, highlights and live action ahead of this summer's World Cup, which kicks off today.
"ITV Player is one of the most recognised sources of programming in the UK and we're delighted to bring its premier library of popular shows to Roku customers in the UK," said Roku's Ed Lee.
The ITV Player channel can be downloaded from the Roku Channel Store today and it will work on the Roku LT, Roku 1, Roku 2, Roku 3 and Streaming Stick boxes.

In some of my presentations I use a simple question to expose a complex math and mental paradox. It goes, what would you rather have; a million dollars or a penny that doubled each day for 30 days? The question quickly exposes those who seek instant gratification and those who never attempt the math. Oh, the answer is after 30 days the penny becomes 5.3 million dollars.
But what if that were real life? What if every penny mattered? Can I really turn one penny into 5.3 million dollars. Sure, but I have to start with a lot of pennies and have a lot of time. The problem is we are trying to create this phenomenon in the stock market. The nature of the stock market today is an up and down roll coaster of your money and time. What most people never know is the alternative to the stock market; a potential for exponential growth.
The stock market does not have the potential for exponential growth without substantial risks. Those risks always arise. Whenever there is growth in a stock there is always a pull back. In order to have highs, you must have lows. Thus is the nature of the stock market. So, every time you earn a penny you lose or risk it for the potential to make two more. This way of building wealth is backwards, inefficient, and unproductive. Every time the stock market pulls back, every time we suffer the slightest loss, we lose time, money, and the possibility for exponential growth. For, these reason structured products that product above average rates of return are important tools for building wealth. These products contain guarantees and advantages found nowhere in the stock market.

Shocking Fact
The typical equity mutest fund investor has only earned 3.83% annually for the past 20 years, beating inflation for that period by only a hair. Asset allocation and fixed income investors haven't even managed to outpace inflation for the last twenty years!


text: 000 FXUS63 KSGF 280533 AFDSGF AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 1133 PM CST Fri Feb 27 2015 .SHORT TERM...(Late this Afternoon through Tonight) Issued at 313 PM CST FRI FEB 27 2015 With a very active pattern expected over the next several days, we are getting a bit of an appetizer this afternoon and this evening. A shearing short wave trough tracking east across the central and southern Plains has triggered an area of snow across central and eastern Oklahoma. This precipitation has been fighting dry air all day, but observations do indicate visibility as low a half mile back towards the Oklahoma City metro. The shearing nature of this wave and the dry air in place across lower levels of the atmosphere will continue to eat away at this snow as it tracks east and northeast into southern Missouri. We are still expecting some pockets of light snow and flurries. A dusting to perhaps as much as a half inch will be possible primarily across far southwestern Missouri. Low temperatures tonight will again be rather chilly as surface winds remain easterly behind strong high pressure across the Ohio Valley. We are generally looking at lower to middle teens area wide. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Friday) Issued at 313 PM CST FRI FEB 27 2015 A couple of weak upper level disturbances will then track out across the region from Saturday into Saturday night. A broad and persistent area of isentropic upglide will develop in the low and middle levels of the atmosphere starting as early as Saturday morning and continuing into Sunday. As that jet intensifies, a large area of snow will spread from west to east across the Missouri Ozarks during the day on Saturday. Models have trended slightly faster with the onset of snow. A warm nose will then work north through the Missouri Ozarks starting as early as Saturday evening near the Arkansas border...pushing north into central Missouri Sunday morning. This will result in a transition to a wintry mix (snow and light freezing rain) across the area. Surface temperatures are then expected to warm above freezing over most areas by Sunday afternoon which will result in all liquid. As for accumulations, 1-3" is expected along and south of the Interstate 44 corridor with the lowest amounts across south- central Missouri. Areas north of the Interstate 44 corridor will see amounts in the 3-5" range. We are also expecting a thin glaze of ice across the region. Ice accretion amounts are generally expected to remain at or below five-hundredths of an inch. With all of this being said, we have hoisted a Winter Weather Advisory from mid-morning Saturday into Sunday morning for all but far south central Missouri. One other potential fly in the ointment worth mentioning will be the late Saturday night into Sunday time frame. The synoptic scale pattern will favor a frontogenetic band of moderate to possibly heavy snow as it becomes favorably aligned with an upper level jet. Current thinking is that this band of snow should remain north of the Missouri Ozarks closer to the Interstate 70 corridor. If this were to shift south, an increase in snow totals may be warranted across central Missouri. Precipitation should then end from northwest to southeast across the area Sunday night as surface high pressure builds in from the north. The lull in precipitation will be short-lived as the upper level flow becomes increasingly southwesterly and amplifies. Precipitation should spread back into the region from Monday night into Tuesday as the first in a series of short wave troughs ejects out towards the region. Strong warm air advection in the lower atmosphere should result in mainly liquid for this system. Global models continue to paint enough instability to maintain a mention of thunder as moisture quickly advects north from the Gulf of Mexico. Temperatures on Tuesday should warm well into the 50s, with some 60 degree readings not out of the question. Global models then continue to depict a strong surface low pressure and trailing cold front coming through the area later Tuesday or Tuesday night. Hydro may become a concern if we see multiple rounds of rainfall like the models are advertising. Out that far, it is a tough call as to when the precipitation will end behind that front. Some models hold onto precipitation as colder air filters into the region...which would paint a signal for wintry precipitation. Other global models are more progressive with sweeping the precipitation to our south before the brunt of the cold air arrives. This will be worth watching as we head into early next week as models should have a better handle by then. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday Night) Issued at 1114 PM CST FRI FEB 27 2015 For the KSGF/KJLN/KBBG tafs: An area of snow affected far sw MO over the past few hours with IFR cat visibility common along with IFR ceilings where the lower atmosphere could saturate (mainly KBBG). Near term improvement in flight conditions are expected as the snow continues to taper off, but mvfr/low end vfr ceilings will be common. Another disturbance will bring a chance for widespread snow and ifr cat conditions after 15z-18z. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

Wendy sent this post and the photos:
Over the weekend there was much discussion about the recent request to see the "Backs". We were a group of mixed reactions because there are many stitchers whose reverse side of their work is as beautiful as the front and then there are those of us who will show you our reverse sides only under duress. In the end after lots of laughter and jokes about "backsides" we agreed that you should see them, so here are two of the pieces for your viewing pleasure.
Among the things we've learned about reverse sides are that it is really important to make sure the silk work ends( the parts done with the silk perle) are very securely wrapped and tucked in on the reverse side otherwise the GST and even the GP ( gold passing) because they have ribs will catch even a hair of the silk and pull it through to the front- requiring some fiddling to get the ends back to the back or trimmed. Sometimes because of the friction in a neighboring area the slippery silk perle seems to have a mind of its own and sort of unwraps out of its spot and then the only way to fix it is to make a noose to try and capture the errant end ( about a half inch) and snug it back into place.

6 Responses to "Backs!"
Isn't it amazing when you learn something new, then see it everywhere? I looked at a page of extant knitted mittens…and there was lots of embroidery, silk and metal, and the gold plaited braid, just like on the jacket! I was so excited, because I'd never noticed that stuff before, and now I've got the instructions!
Thanks so much for showing the backs. It's amazing how little there is on the backs. Must make burying the threads challenging.
Thanks for showing the backs. I found it very interesting. I suppose I should have expected it but I was surprised at how little silk there is on the back. I was also surprised at the reverse of the gold braid, the back is so simple in relation to all that is going on on the front
In Japanese Embroidery we use a sinking needle (a sling or lasso) to sick the ends of goldwork but they are also very useful for return stray ends to the reverse!
Oooo, thanks for the pics! It really is interesting to see the backs and how the different stitches look on the reverse. No wonder there was so much detached buttonhole on these, very little wasted thread on the back.
And I think we used Deb's thin wire needle threader a couple of times to wrestle down some of those loose ends at the last silk session. Worked like a charm.
How fascinating – I assume the embroidered jackets were lined, to protect the thread from unravelling, catching, or even just scratching the owner?
Ooh! Excellent photos. Thank you for taking and posting them. It really is interesting to see the backside as well as the front. Knowing, as we do, how careful you've researched the stitches and methods this is quite close to seeing the back of the period pieces as well.
Just look at the economy of usage. All the thread possible is left on the front, not an inch more than needed wasted on the back.
Thank you.

Navigating the Mississippi River waters can be very dangerous. There are a large number of people who fish or enjoy other recreational activities on the river, and while there are not a lot of drownings, according to Winona County Sherrif Dave Brand, there are people who get hurt.
Before taking a boat out on the river, it is important to make sure the boat is safe and ready for water. Be sure the boat has its plug in, and there are lifejackets for everyone on board. Make sure the motor works and that you get it tuned up before taking it out, Brand said. Thats where a lot of people run into problems; their motor fails. Its important to have a good anchor on your boat, in case your motor malfunctions, Brand added.
If the motor fails on the boat, immediately drop the anchor on the boat to prevent drifting, damage, and passage into a dam. After dropping anchor, call 911 and someone will be able to come assist in the situation, Brand stated, and then provided an example.
In 2007, a family was out fishing and their motor failed. They pulled up anchor and tried to start it and got pulled into Lock and Dam 7. What they should have done was try to start the motor with the anchor still down, explained Brand. Unfortunately all four lives on the boat were lost, and only three bodies were ever recovered.
Even with a safe, fully equipped boat, people can run into problems with the river, Brand noted. The water is high this year and the current has been strong. People operating boats need to be cautious. If they cant control the boat theyre going to go downstream and run into the dam, Brand warned.
As with any motor vehicle, operators should not be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. DWI laws are enforced out on the river, Brand said. If youre going to be operating a boat, you shouldnt be drinking.
It is important to take as many safety precautions as possible while out on a boat. Brand urges people going out on the river to notify someone of the area they will be in before they leave shore. Its a good safety precaution, in case something were to happen.
Above all, be sure to wear a life jacket on the river. A lot of people who are not good swimmers or half-way swimmers, dont wear a life jacket, Brand noted. Even strong swimmers can go under in the river.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Look up de minimis or de minimis non curat lex in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. |
De minimis is a Latin expression meaning about minimal things, normally in the locutions de minimis non curat praetor ("The praetor does not concern himself with trifles") or de minimis non curat lex ("The law does not concern itself with trifles").[1][2]
In risk assessment, it refers to a level of risk that is too small to be concerned with. Some refer to this as a "virtually safe" level.[3]
Contents |
In criminology, the de minimis or minimalist approach is an addition to a general harm principle. The general harm principle fails to consider the possibility of other sanctions to prevent harm, and the effectiveness of criminalization as a chosen option. Those other sanctions include civil courts, laws of tort and regulation. Having criminal remedies in place is seen as a "last resort" since such actions often infringe personal liberties – incarceration, for example, prevents the freedom of movement. In this sense, law making that places a greater emphasis on human rights, such as the European Convention on Human Rights fall into the de minimis category. Most crimes of direct actions (murder, rape, assault, for example) are generally not affected by such a stance, but it does require greater justification in less clear cases.[4]
This also has application in the field of auditing and may refer to situations of a low audit risk. It can be verified in ASA 1.
Under U.S. tax rules, the de minimis rule governs the treatment of small amounts of market discount. Under the rule, if a bond is purchased with a small amount of market discount (an amount less than 0.25% of the face value of a bond times the number of complete years between the bond's acquisition date and its maturity date) the market discount is considered to be zero. If the market discount is less than the de minimis amount, the discount on the bond is generally treated as a capital gain upon disposition or redemption rather than as ordinary income.[5] Under IRS guidelines, the de minimis rule can also apply to any benefit, property, or service provided to an employee that has so little value that reporting for it would be unreasonable or administratively impracticable; for example, use of a company photocopier to copy personal documents – see de minimis fringe benefit. Cash is not excludable, regardless of the amount.[6]
The de minimis rule in American drug law requires a usable quantity of the substance in question before charges can be brought, known as the minority rule.[7]
In Canada, de minimis is often used as a standard of whether a criminal offence is made out at a preliminary stage. For a charge of second degree murder, the test being: "could the jury reasonably conclude that accused actions were a contributing cause, beyond de minimis, of the victim's death."[8]
Under European Union competition law, some agreements infringing Article 101(1) of the TFEU (formerly Article 81(1) of the EC Treaty) are considered to be "de minimis" and therefore accepted. Horizontal agreement, that is one between competitors, will usually be de minimis where the parties' market share is 10% or less, and a vertical agreement, between undertakings operating at different levels of the market, where it is 15% or less.[9]
The European Union de minimis "state aid" regulation allows for aid of up to €200,000 to be provided from public funds to any business enterprise over a rolling three-year period.[10]
Courts will occasionally not uphold a copyright on modified public domain material if the changes are deemed to be "de minimis".[11] Similarly, courts have dismissed copyright infringement cases on the grounds that the alleged infringer's use of the copyrighted work (such as sampling) was so insignificant as to be "de minimis". However, in Bridgeport Music, Inc. v. Dimension Films, such a ruling was overturned on appeal, the US appeals court explicitly declining to recognize a de minimis standard for digital sampling.[12]

No knock on Lolita's guac. |
And that's why as you take your seat, a waiter brings over a smoking dish of grapefruit granita and, holding a bottle of tequila in his hand, asks if you want some poured over the granita. At this point, just nod your head and enjoy.
For more tequila and slush, and more good times, turn to the margarita menu. We tried the basic Lolita margarita, and it was a classic mix made with freshly squeezed lime juice. Talk about not taking your meal too seriously: There are 120 top tequila pours from $10 to $100 (or 1,332 pesos for a shot of Herradura).
Next the waiter brought us chips and three dips -- tomatillo salsa, chipotle crema, and a hot red chili salsa. We ordered guacamole to go with it, and received a bowl of freshly mashed avocado with tomatoes, bits of serrano chile, and a lime wedge on the side ($9). Nicely done.
In fact, things were rolling along quite smoothly until the quesadilla arrived.

A deceptive steak quesadilla; there's nothing inside. |
Well, this Boston chain is known more for tacos than quesadillas, so we tried a trio of pulled pork tacos "seared crispy with salsa verde." Folded within soft corn tortillas, the pork was fresh and tasty, if a bit on the sweet side.
Lee Klein |
Pulled pork tacos |
After sampling just a few plates, it appears as though there may be some inconsistencies in the kitchen. But overall the food was fresh and tasty, the drinks were fine, and the staff is very friendly and keen on keeping diners happy. After guests finish their meal, each table is brought a giant puff of cotton candy -- ours was flavored with green apple.
This spirit is just right for South Beach: Fun, fun, fun, 'till daddy takes the tequila away. Or, on weekends, until 5 a.m.

Complimentary cotton candy closes the deal. |

With the submission of a final probation report this month, Nicholls State University has fulfilled the penalties as assessed by the National Collegiate Athletic Association in Indianapolis, Indiana. None of us who learned of the facts surrounding the academic fraud incident of 2004 could bring ourselves to believe that coaching and academic advising staff could act so dishonestly and with so little personal integrity.
While the violations that occurred at Nicholls were quite serious and most embarrassing, the efforts made on this campus to address the causes of those violations and to take the strongest measures possible to prevent them from ever reoccurring have been just as serious in nature. Not only did Nicholls accept the resignation of the involved coaching and advising staff, the university has also replaced them with coaches and academic advisors who are truly committed to the academic well being of our student athletes. Additionally, the director of Athletics has made it a policy to stress compliance at all staff meetings and has worked with the university's compliance officer to issue a compliance newsletter on a monthly basis throughout the academic year. The issue of compliance should never be far from the minds of any of our coaching and athletic administrative staff.
With the retirement of our compliance officer shortly after the NCAA imposed its penalties on Nicholls State University, a new compliance officer was charged with changing the compliance model at the university. Specifically, that individual was directed to be more active in preventing violations on the front end rather than policing the Athletics Department for violations after the fact. The new compliance officer was urged to become a compliance partner with all the coaches, assisting them to do the right thing and answering their questions. As a result, the coaches have confidence that they can go to the compliance officer and find help in addressing their compliance issues.
Most importantly, Nicholls State University has taken academic advising of student athletes out of the arena of the Athletics Department and moved it entirely under the academic side of the university. The academic advisors to our student athletes are now housed in University College, serving under an academic dean who answers to the vice president for Academic Affairs. This model has already attracted the interest of our sister institutions in the state of Louisiana and of some of our Southland Conference schools as well. I am confident that this action will go a long way in helping avoid the type of violation that occurred while also addressing the Academic Progress Rate (APR) issues that institutions like Nicholls State are confronted with on a continuous basis.
In conclusion, while the violations and the resulting penalties were painful and embarrassing, Nicholls State University has handled them with maturity and determination. Our student athletes and our coaching staff are better than ever, and we continue to move forward determined to grow as an athletic program and as an academic community.
My thanks go to the faculty, staff, and coaching personnel who have worked so hard over the past four years to address the needs of the athletic program and the student athletes it serves.
A copy of the final probation report is available for review through the Office of the Director of Athletics (985-448-4795).

By Gareth Harris. From Art Basel daily editionPublished online: 13 June 2013
The German dealer Matthias Arndt opened his contemporary art gallery in east Berlin in 1994, relocating in 2010 to Schöneberg, a central district of the city. He has organised more than 300 exhibitions, including pop-up shows in spaces around the world. In January 2013, Arndt opened a venue in Singapore in the new art hub, Gillman Barracks.
1) Work out: The first thing I do when I arrive is pick up my pre-reserved bike at Basel railway station (www.rentabike.ch). For 20 years now, at every Art Basel, I have taken a one-hour ride every morning along the Rhine. 2) Eat: Another annual ritual is lunch at the Brauerei restaurant, Grenzacherstrasse 60. I meet a dear US couple, who are collectors, and we have a kalbsbratwurst [veal bratwurst] with rösti, before making our first tour of the Liste fair.3) Visit: The Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein is another must. With boundaries between art and design becoming more fluid, I love to see what is new in contemporary design; at the same time, there are still so many design classics to discover.4) Eat (again): Dinner at Chez Donati in the Les Trois Rois hotel is essential: it's an old-school venue with incredible Italian food that never disappoints. 5) The fair: Last but not least, Art Basel is the centre of everybody's attention and the reason why we're all there. All meetings take place in or around the fair, with its busy agenda and rich offerings.

Not sure where to put it, but I'm guessing here..
I read this manga a while ago, and I want to read it again but I can't remember what it's called. It's about this really shy girl who was being bullied at her old school, she transferred to another school, make friends, got a boyfriend, and had to transfer back to her old school where she got bullied even worse. She finally told her dad about it who didn't believe her at first, and her stepmom had to step up and make sure the dad did something about it, and everyone lives happily ever after. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks.

I use fruit by the foot. Makes for a delicious treat after a few runs!
Seriously though, I use the plastic belt that came with my Shaun White pants. Plastic, rubber, I dunno. I just know it works. Use a rope if you have to. Not really going to affect you unless you wear one of those big ass cowboy buckles. That one might hurt a bit on the way down. |

I wear a 686 Original snow tool belt, primarily b/c it has a bottle opener. It also is just a sick piece of kit that and I appreciate the ingenuity. Includes a #2 phillips, #2 flat head, and 1/2, 9/16, 3/8 wrenches and the bottle opener I mentioned previously. The bottle opener should have been designed opposite of what it is so you could use it while wearing it without spilling the precious nectar.
