Sun poisoning, sunburns linked to accelerated skin aging and skin cancerFriday, June 6th, 2014 Issue 23, Volume 18.
Sunburns are never a good thing, but sun poisoning can be even more severe and the symptoms can become quite serious and uncomfortable. Despite what the term "sun poisoning" implies, the sun does not poison the body. Rather, the term describes sensitivity to sunlight that results in a wide range of symptoms that can affect the skin and body as a whole. Sun poisoning can occur when one has a sun allergy, called solar urticaria. This is very rare. However, the greatest number of sun poisoning cases are simply a severe form of sunburn. Depending on the pigmentation of a persons skin and the severity of the sun, sunburn can occur in mere minutes. Many people can get a sunburn within 15 minutes of being in the sun. The suns rays are most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., making the majority of the day a prime time for skin damage. Although sunburn can occur quite quickly, many people do not realize anything has occurred right away. Thats because sunburn symptoms can be delayed. It may take a few hours for redness to appear and discomfort to set in. Staying in the sun too long without wearing adequate protection, whether it be a wide-brimmed hat, protective clothing or ample amounts of sunblock, can lead to sunburn. Over time, sunburn can progress to sun poisoning. Symptoms of sun poisoning include a severe Advertisement The best treatment for sun poisoning is prevention. Avoid blazing sun whenever possible and use sunblock and reapply frequently if you must be out in the sun for any duration of time. Otherwise, some cases of sun poisoning can be relieved with the application of cool compresses or by taking cool (not cold) baths. Application of aloe gels also can alleviate discomfort, in addition to taking a pain relieving NSAID pill. If at any point a fever occurs and spikes to more than 104 F, or if there is extreme pain and vomiting, head to the emergency room. Doctors may have to quickly reduce swelling and inflammation and administer fluids intravenously to get the body back on track. Keep in mind that blisters from sun poisoning can get infected, so it is advisable to keep the skin clean and avoid picking at or popping blisters. Discuss any concerns about severe sunburn with a doctor. Frequent sunburns can be linked to accelerated skin aging and can put a person at a higher risk for skin cancer. According to the Cleveland Clinic, ultraviolet, or UV, radiation from the sun is the number one cause of skin cancer, but UV light from tanning beds is just as harmful. Cumulative sun exposure causes basal cell and squamous cell skin cancer, while episodes of severe blistering sunburns, usually before age 18, can cause melanoma later in life. Sun poisoning and sunburns are nothing to take lightly. These conditions are easy to prevent by being smart about sun exposure. 0 comments Be the first to share your opinion on this article!

The Tea Pavilion is one of the most interesting monuments in the world of architecture. Which is unparalleled, not only in the West, but also in the Land of the Rising Sun. According to legend, a tea pavilion as a separate building, invented by Rikyu, the greatest of all Japanese tea ceremony masters, who in the XVI century determined its ritual. Formally, the tea pavilion (sukiya) is nothing more than a simple thatched hut. It consists of the tea room accommodating up to five people, ante-room (Mizuya) where all supplies for the ritual are washed and arranged before taking in the main room, awning (Matia) under which guests usually expect an invitation to enter, and a garden path (Rhodes) that is connecting the awning and the tea room. The Tea Pavilion is a very small building, but every detail in it is carefully chosen. Its construction is more expensive than the construction of a mansion, and the builders carrying out an order of a master of tea ceremony are very respectable caste. The style of the tea pavilion is very simple. The situation should help to forget the bustle of the material world, and not to compel attention to its transient luxury. Semantic center of the tea pavilion is Tokonoma, a kind of "red corner" of the tea room. During the tea ceremony, a painting, a scroll or an object that specifies a certain mood of the guests of the ceremony is placed in Tokonoma. Flowers - one of the most common attributes of the ritual, traditionally, placed inside. Hieroglyph for a tea pavilion (茶室), can be deciphered as "shelter of imagination", "shelter of emptiness" or "shelter asymmetry". Tea Pavilion, being sparingly decorated, allows to activate the human imagination, which should complete the asymmetry of the place. Each tea pavilion is different and, indeed, is unique, as it is created for a specific master at his own request and according to his tastes. The Tea Pavilion is not inherited: when the master dies, the building dies. The Tea Pavilion is an attempt to feel the joy of individually experienced moments of life, rather than enduring symbol of eternity. In contrast to the lush of western interior, the interior of the Tea house is extremly simple. Only one piece of art, which is placed in Tokonoma, specifies a certain mindset. According to that piece of art, most often it is flowers or a special type and color of glassware, then the rest of accessories are selected. No subject in the tea pavilion looks like any other by color or shape. Flowers are never combined with their images, a black bowl is not used in combinations with a black box for storing tea leaves, and even wooden objects are made of different types of trees. The awareness of imperfection and incompleteness is a way to comprehend the world around by trying to find one's place in it and coming to harmony with it. Like everything else in the Japanese culture of tea, the pavilion is a symbol of a certain philosophy of life. A "man" is called to the consonance with the world, harmony, and gain in active spiritual poetic action, not passive contemplation of the surrounding reality, and even more so than merging with it in a wild dance of everyday life.

According to "urban legend", iced tea was discovered accidentally by an enterprising Englishman Richard Blechynden who had come all the way from Calcutta, India to represent teas from the Far East at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. Not meeting with much success in the stifling heat, Mr. Blechynden poured the tea over ice and met with a near instant success. However, the oldest printed recipes for iced tea were published in 1870. Russian tea with sugar and lemon slices was fashionable in the USA and served in hotels in 1860th under the name "tea a la Russe" both hot and cold.
America is unique in its tea consumption habits. In the United States over 85% of the tea is consumed as an iced beverage. Iced tea has gained wide spread popularity as an alternative to carbonated soft drinks being an attribute of a healthy life style. This refreshing drink is traditionally served sweetened or unsweetened with lemon slice over ice cubes in a tall glass. Black tea is the classic ingredient used to make iced tea. With incredible offers on the market today for black and green teas, Rooibos, blended teas, ayurvedic, flavored, herbal and fruit teas, try to find your preferred beverage by experimenting with such a variety. For iced tea to have consistent strengths from start to finish, use ice cubes made from leftover tea.
Here are three ways for making perfect iced tea:
Hot Water Method
Boil water. Steep your favorite tea with double the amount of loose leaf. Strain prepared drink to remove the tea leaves. Sweeten with sugar or honey if desired. Pour the strained tea into a pitcher with ice cubes. Serve in a tall glasses filed with additional ice cubes, garnish with a lemon slice and a spring of fresh mint.
Cold Water Method
This method is the best to achieve a crystal clear drink result. Fill a large pitcher with cold water and loose leaf tea (8 teaspoons of tea per 4 cups of water), let it chill overnight. Strain the mixture to remove tea leaves. Sweeten with sugar syrup if desired. Serve and enjoy.
Sugar syrup: combine equal amounts of water and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to boil and simmer until clear, about 7 minutes. Cool and store in refrigerator. You may add lemon zest to the mixture while boiling, proceed as directed, discard the zest and enjoy lemon sugar syrup with your favorite iced tea!
Sun Tea
"Sun tea" is tea brewed by being left to steep in the sunlight. In a glass jar, combine water and loose leaf tea (8 teaspoons of tea per 4 cups of water). Place the jar in a warm, sunny location for 3-4 hours. Strain the mixture to remove tea leaves. Sweeten with sugar syrup if desired. Chill in refrigerator. Serve and enjoy!
There are also lots of different variations of iced tea. Common modifications to the traditional recipe include adding fresh fruit, flavored syrups, cranberry or orange juice, sparkling water and even champagne to make a delicious tea drink. Bubble tea is very popular in Taiwan and worth to try on a hot summer day as an exotic desert. A strong black tea sweetened with condensed milk and served cold with large tapioca pearls. Great low calorie desert that quenches your thirst! The possibilities for making a unique and refreshing glass of iced tea are virtually countless. Experiment and enjoy your summer!

Ceylon (Sri Lanka) tea can also be attributed to "India". This island located close to India which produces the same amount of tea as the mainland plantations, and even more generating roughly $700 million annually. Cultivation of tea in Sri Lanka started accidentally. Up until the 1860's, Ceylon was only for coffee plantations, but due to sudden fungal disease called "coffee rust" most of the coffee trees have died and brought the downfall of coffee production, then igniting an era of tea. In 1867 the first tea plantation in Ceylon was laid by Scott James Taylor in Kandy. He became the father of tea cultivation in Ceylon. In 1890's Sir Thomas Lipton visited Ceylon and founded his own tea plantations and factories for tea processing focused on the needs of British consumers. Ceylon black teas are divided into three main types: high-grown (1,200 meters above sea level), mid-grown (600-1,200 m) and low-grown (up to 600 m). The share of high-altitude, high-quality tea is relatively small; it is the finest plantations in Nuwara Eliya that are located at an altitude 6,128 ft. Good quality tea are also harvested on the plantations: Dimbula ( altitude ranging between 3,500 ft to 5,000 ft), Uva province( altitude ranging between 3,500 ft to 5,000 ft) and Ratnapura (low-grown tea). Indian tea Nuwara Eliya is the highest tea region in the world and considered one of the most important locations for tea production in Sri Lanka. Tea produced in Nuwara Eliya has a very unique flavor. Tea leaves gather year around, but the best yields are in January-March. Tea leaves in this region are plucked at dawn, it is the time when leaf retains its freshness and then displays it in the brewed beverage. Sometimes the tea from Nuwara Eliya called the "champagne of tea", as well as some teas from Darjeeling province in northern India. This tea gives a tincture of golden color, delicate and refined flavor and slightly astringent taste. Uva region is situated in the south-eastern part of Sri Lanka in the mountains, which are located on the slopes of the plantation growers an excellent tea. Uva area's tea is widely used for blends such as English Breakfast Black Tea Blend, Irish Breakfast Black Tea Blend, Morning Tea…etc. A distinctive feature of tea from this district is a golden-reddish infusion, excellent flavor and a wonderful taste. In the Dimbula area most tea plantations are located on the south-eastern slopes. The best tea is obtained in January-March, when the weather is dry and cold (for this latitude) and is determining factor of flavor. The main characteristic of the local tea is the aroma of a faint lemon note. The taste of the tea is full, with a little tartness, the infusion is bright and reddish color.

People drink tea, to forget the hustle and bustle of the world. Tan Yen
Welcome to the world of unique, vibrant essence that forms an environment for communication to the world of green tea. Apart from the fact that tea is simple to prepare and pleasant to taste, it is a unique plant which includes a huge amount of different substances that provide a favorable effect on the human body. For some reason, only when we visit museums, we draw attention to the achievements of human race in various fields. Once inside the museum, we may explore the aircraft industry, we begin to admire the progress when standing next to the first wooden airplane, then stroll over to find a super modern fighter jet, both man-made within the last one hundred years. In museums of fine art, we are surprised to learn about the enormous changes in the technique of writing that occurred in just a few centuries, at each stage giving the world priceless masterpieces. However, once among the remarkable and infinitely fragrant teas, we rarely think about the historic characters and events, some of which dates back to antiquity. In ancient times, people discovered wild tea trees, the leaves are plucked from the trees were just chewed or boiled in water. Century's later people learned how to make pressed tea and then loose leaf tea. They gradually discovered many other variations throughout several millenniums, revealing all of its secret benefits. As a result, countless assortments of tea are on store shelves, readily available to all that desire this great treasure. Despite the tremendous diversity of over 350 tea trees, each plant providing distinctive attributes within the glorious green leaves. Sky-high peaks, misty cliffs and green valleys only help these leaves to absorb a unique "spirit". The magical transformation of the collected tea leaves, from white to black, happens because of the improvements past down from ancient times. We hope that while you are exploring our website and blog, you will assimilate many new and interesting things about the culture of tea, the types of tea brewing methods, the countless benefits of loose leaf tea and the secrets of making an exquisite cup of tea.

White tea is truly a pearl among the different varieties of tea. These teas are a specialty of the Chinese province Fujian. White tea is the most expensive, and this fact is not surprising because white tea is widely considered the most effective (health-giving). It contains a maximum amount of useful substances and vitamins, which are found in the other varieties of teas in smaller amounts due to fermentation process.
White tea is one of the rarest teas in the world: the buds are picked before they unfurl, which means the tea can only be plucked for a few weeks each spring only in the morning from 5 to 9 AM. White teas have a very strict procedure for the plucking and processing. The tea pickers are prohibited from eating spices, garlic, onions, and consuming alcohol, as well as other strong-fragrant foods in order not to contaminate the aroma of tea leaves. The unopened buds and two young leaves are plucked by hand then withered to allow natural drying. White tea is minimally processed, therefore contains the higher level of antioxidants. The main difference of white tea is that it leaves are not broken or twisted, which is why tea looks a little sloppy. The fermentation of white tea is a natural way without the use of any special technological innovations. In fact, the process of drying of white tea is the only process where manufacturers can somehow affect the final product. That is why the drying process is approached with special care. High-quality white tea leaves remain whole after the drying process despite the fact that they become distorted, the leaves maintain maximum integrity. Another characteristic feature of good white tea is the presence of small silver fibers on the leaves. White tea requires very careful handling. If you already shelled out for expensive and good product, try to brew it so as to preserve the maximum benefit and enjoy this drink. For brewing white tea, use water at a temperature ranging from 176 to 194 degrees F, and steep it not longer than 2-3 minutes. If water used is too hot it will not allow the unique aroma of white tea to unfold. White tea should be stored in a tin box, so there is no access to different odors, since it instantly absorbs all extraneous scents. The brewed liquid has lightly amber color with a slight greenish tint. It is very transparent with thin unique floral, slightly herbal flavor. There are few traditions and rules imposed to the consumption of white teas. The fact that subtle and delicate taste of white tea is fairly weak, tea drinkers should not enjoy white tea after spicy, salty or astringent foods, because of strong food aftertaste. Therefore, white tea should be drunk by itself. For those who prefer to add a fruity accent to white tea, ESP Emporium offers an innovated White Grape Premium Tea blend. It is your turn to decide whether our choice was the correct one. Fresh juice from sun-ripened grapes, red berries and the blue/violet color of blossoms, set on a bed of rich green (China Pai Mu Tan, China Cui Min), invite you to simply enjoy this excellent blend. White teas, regardless of grade offer great benefits to our body. They are rich in antioxidants and slow down skin aging process, prevent the emergence of malignant tumors. White tea also has an antiviral effect, strengthens the cardiovascular system, and reduces the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis.

We are renovating our kitchen and saying a reluctant goodbye to this marvelous mid-century sink — with fantastic built in drainboards on both sides. Made by AMPCO, the whole unit measures 54 inches wide x 25 inches deep. The basin itself is 27 × 20 × 6 inches.
The enamel is in very good shape considering it has been in constant use for 70+ years with only a few small dings (both of our boys had their first baths in this sink). As an added bonus, you can have the attached newish (but vintage-style) Kohler faucet!
Sold in as-is condition. $250 or best offer and you can haul it away. Available immediately!

STEPHEN Baster returns to Melbourne early this week keen to put his shock Singapore sacking behind him.
Baster remains at a loss for the reason why the Singapore Turf Club withdrew his licence last week.
Peter Chadwick, the head steward, handed Baster a letter last week, which simply said his licence to ride in Singapore had been revoked.
No reason was given for the decision which was not a steward's directive, but delivered from the club hierarchy.
No charges were issued against Baster, who only returned to Singapore in late December after a successful season.
Baster hopes to resume riding in Melbourne at the start of February.

A Native American Mentoring Program
Montana State University is committed to the success of Native American students at the university and beyond. We strive to make MSU the college of choice for Native American students, and in addition to our excellent academic programs, we offer more than 30 programs geared specifically at supporting Native American Students.
What is Expanding Horizons?
Expanding Horizons is a mentoring program for new Native students that is designed to help you with the myriad of transitions students will be going through in the first year of college. It's a small time commitment with a big pay off.
College is filled with all sorts of new opportunities and experiences for students, making for a very exciting new chapter in their lives. With those new experiences come new struggles and challenges. Expanding Horizons is a program designed to help Native students navigate their first year of college so that they know that there is support at MSU, and learn how to utilize the variety of support options to help them be successful students.
Coming to a new place can be both exciting and scary. While new students can't bring thier entire support network with them in their suitcase when they arrive at MSU, we want to make sure that students feel comfortable in their new home as quickly as possible, and we want them to know that there are people to support them every step of the way. To help do that, we pair students with a faculty or staff mentors, who are interested in supporting them in the college transition, and helping them grow as individual people. Students and mentors attend monthly workshops and social events together, learning about available resources on campus through the Office of Student Success, Financial Aid, Career Services, Counseling and Psychological Services, ASMSU Sports and Recreational Fitness and many others. Peer leaders also work with students to help ensure that each participant can connect with support services to achieve personal and academic goals.

Michelob Ultra
Product Review
Many of our panelists found Michelob Ultra to have a nuttier taste than the other beers one reviewer described it as "nutty with a little spice" while another said it was "refreshing and clean for a summer day." Not everyone was a fan of the flavor though, and the biggest complaint was that the lager was just too thin.

Americas Got Talent Returns
The seventh season starts tonight with a new judge: Howard Stern.
For six years it's been the summer's top rated show.
Tonight "America's Got Talent" launches its new season a few weeks early with a new judge in the mix.
Howard Stern is joining the show.
Stern's controversial radio career has raised concerns in some circles about his impact on the show, but fellow judge Sharon Osbourne says stern is more than his reputation.
"People don't realize, he's a big softie, he really is," she says. "He does more cuddling and caring for the contestants than anyone."
Stern is replacing Piers Morgan, who left after last season to go to CNN as host of his
Own talk show.
To accommodate Stern joining the show, "America's Got Talent" will be moving its live shows later
this summer from Los Angeles to Newark, New Jersey, closer to where Stern works in New York.

The Sports Network
By Nicholas DeLorenzo, Associate College Basketball Editor
FACTS & STATS: Site: Mizzou Arena (15,061) -- Columbia, Missouri, . Television: ESPN U. Home Record: Vandy 5-4, Missouri 11-0. Away Record: Vandy 2-2, Missouri 0-3. Neutral Record: Vandy 1-3, Missouri 3-1. Conference Record: Vandy 2-3, Missouri 3-2. Series Record: Vanderbilt leads, 3-2.
GAME NOTES: After both teams recorded wins earlier this week, the Vanderbilt Commodores and the 22nd-ranked Missouri Tigers try to keep the momentum going on Saturday afternoon when they meet at Mizzou Arena for an SEC tilt.
After losing its first three league matchups, Vanderbilt is coming off back- to-back wins for just the second time this season following victories over South Carolina (58-51) and most recently at home versus Auburn (73-61) on Wednesday night. The Commodores are now 8-9 overall, and they have split four true road games.
Missouri started the season off red-hot with wins in 10 of its first 11 games, but it has since taken a tumble in the rankings with three losses since Dec. 28. Following an 83-52 setback at Florida last Saturday, the Tigers bounced back with a 71-65 triumph over South Carolina on Tuesday to stay perfect at Mizzou Arena (11-0).
Vanderbilt has won three of the five all-time meetings against Missouri, most recently claiming an 85-82 overtime decision in Columbia on Dec. 8, 2010.
The Commodores have struggled to score points this season, ranking 13th in the SEC with an average of only 59.8 ppg, and when they do win it's usually because of their fourth-ranked scoring defense, which yields an average of 60.6 ppg. Their field goal percentage in their last outing was rather modest (.408), but they were able to cruise to a 12-point victory behind an outstanding 24-of-30 showing from the foul line. Kedren Johnson shot 8-of-10 from the stripe on his way to 15 points, while also adding team-highs in assists (four) and rebounds (seven). Kyle Fuller (14 points) and Kevin Bright (12 points) were impressive off the bench, and Sheldon Jeter added 10 points in the victory. Johnson is Vanderbilt's top scorer at 15.1 ppg, and he adds 4.0 rpg, 3.3 apg and 1.5 spg for good measure. Fuller (10.8 ppg) and Odom (9.2 ppg) are also regular contributors to the lackluster offensive attack.
Missouri actually trailed by as many as 13 points to South Carolina in its latest bout, but it mounted a furious comeback behind a 20-2 run and ultimately escaped with the six-point win. Earnest Ross came off the bench to tally 21 points and 10 rebounds, while Alex Oriakhi (18 points, 11 rebounds) also recorded a double-double. Jabari Brown was far from his best from the field (5-of-16), but he still finished with 17 points. The Tigers shoot 44.1 percent from the floor this season and a league-best 73.0 percent from the foul line en route to 75.3 ppg, and they are one of the most balanced squads in the nation with six players netting at least 8.9 ppg. They'll be shorthanded in this matchup however, as Laurence Bowers (16.8 ppg, 6.9 rpg) is out with a sprained knee and Keion Bell (8.9 ppg) is questionable with an ankle injury. In their absences, Missouri will rely on Brown (14.4 ppg) and Phil Pressey (11.9 ppg, SEC-best 7.2 apg) more than usual in the backcourt, although neither shoots greater than 37 percent from the floor. Oriakhi (10.4 ppg) adds a team-high 8.4 rpg and 1.6 bpg, while Ross chips in 10.3 ppg and 5.4 rpg.
Vanderbilt has the defensive chops to slow down the Tigers, especially considering they are lacking a good portion of their scoring depth, but Missouri still has plenty of talent that is healthy and it has been far too good at home to falter against an inconsistent Commodores squad.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Missouri 70, Vanderbilt 60

Latham's death wish
PUBLISHED: 10 Dec 2012 00:32:57 | UPDATED: 10 Dec 2012 00:32:57PUBLISHED: 10 Dec 2012 PRINT EDITION: 10 Dec 2012What possible explanation is there for The Australian Financial Review employing Mark Latham as a columnist, given that in his latest diatribe he says that hopefully a decade from now, newspapers and TV news bulletins will no longer exist ("The joke that's journalism", AFR, December 6).It seems strange for a newspaper like the AFR to employ someone who uses its pages to advocate the death of newspapers. Although if Mr Latham's wish is fulfilled, we won' t have to put up with his angry and aggressive columns any more. I think Australia is well served by its journalists.

Framlingham Christmas Charity Market on Market Hill Jackie Frost and Sarah Goring
Monday, December 3, 2012
A CHRISTMAS charity market set up in Framlingham on Sunday - spreading festive cheer through the town.
The event was part of the town's bid to encourage residents to shop local this Christmas.
There were tasty treats, warming drinks and hand-made gifts on offer.
Jenny Stockman, of Framlingham Business Association, said Christmas could be the "make-or-break season" for many among the town's retailers.
She said: "All focus is on retail with shops putting on enticing window displays, special offers and tempting suggestions for those special Christmas gifts. It is no different in Framlingham."
Last week the town hosted a fun-packed Castle Christmas Fair and late night shopping event and the ch
The annual charity market took place on Market Hill yesterday and a Christmas tree festival will be held in St Michael's Church on December 8.
"And Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without carol singers.
"Framlingham's can be found in the Co-op supermarket on December 18 and 22."

Flicks Fix: 'Young Adult' a teenage dream to nowhere
Carolina Astrain
July 10, 2013 at 2:10 a.m.
If you've already seen "Young Adult," then check out some of these other movies with similar themes and undertones. Know of anything that would be a good addition to this list? Shoot me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com or tweet me @carolinastrain, I'd love to check it out.
• "Lost in Translation," 2003
• "Just Friends," 2005
• "Tiny Furniture," 2010
• "Margot at the Wedding," 2007
"The Graduate," 1967
• "Garden State," 2004
Source: Internet Movie Database
We've all had that dream.
Someday, we'll leave home and return as a glorified superstar in the eyes of our childhood friends.
Or perhaps we'll pursue a forgotten romance we bookmarked after high school graduation.
This is what our brave heroine Mavis Gary (Charlize Theron) sets out to accomplish in the 2011 film "Young Adult," written by Diablo Cody.
Our late-30s protagonist is introduced through the lens of her messy downtown Minneapolis apartment.
Mavis is a writer on deadline, procrastinating the end of her young adult novel series.
She receives an email from her ex-boyfriend with an image of his newborn daughter.
For some bizarre reason, Mavis interprets this as a sign that they belong together - despite the whole married-with-a-child thing.
The next day, after a one-night stand, she sets out to reignite her high school romance.
Off Mavis goes, driving down the interstate to her hometown of Mercury, Minn., where she checks into a hotel and plots the seduction of her married ex-boyfriend.
At this point, the delusion is maddening.
The viewer knows Mavis is on a fool's errand.
Thankfully, this seemingly drab, "Days of Our Lives"-esque plot is somewhat saved by Matt, played by actor and comedian Patton Oswalt.
Matt, an area sports bar bookkeeper, continually attempts to keep Mavis from committing all the mistakes she ends up making before the film's climax at the baby naming ceremony.
The pace of the film is a tad slow at times, but the punchlines are worth waiting for.
Personally, I didn't enjoy seeing as many retail or name brand items that were littered throughout the scenes.
But I can get what the director, Jason Reitman, is getting at.
It made the film feel very naked, very raw - almost homemade.
Maybe this vulnerability was the same type of feeling he was trying to get at with his leading lady.
"Young Adult" isn't the greatest film you'll ever see, but it is about a dream we've all wondered about.
(Except for those of you who actually married your high school sweetheart and never moved out of your hometown, maybe this movie isn't for you.)
But for the rest of us suckers, the film is worth spending a few hours on.
One hour, 34 minutes to be precise.
And if my high school sweetheart is reading this, please don't take this as a sign of destined love.
I'm doing quite all right, thank you.

In 2001, Gunnar Andersson gave an interview before Volvo's – and obviously also Gunnar's – 75th anniversary. This is a summary of his story :
"In 1953, I came by a Jaguar XK120 and decided to enter an open driving skills competition in central Gothenburg. There were over a thousand entries, who had to complete ten different tests in a given time. Of those who passed the first nine, the winner was the driver who was fastest in the tenth. "The tenth test was to reverse through an obstacle course. Since the Jaguar was fast also in reverse and since I had a clear view with the top down, I was the overall winner."
This gave him a taste for more and he entered a famous hill-climbing race where he made such a success, driving so fast that the organisers queried there own timing. Seizing their chance, the rest of the field entered a protest and the run was abandoned. Then, Gunnar finished only 3rd overall...
Anyhow, aged 26, Gunnar Andersson now knew that he was a top-rank driver and his rally career was launched.In 1957 he was persuaded to buy a Volvo PV 444 on the grounds that 'they never break down'. Although slightly dubious, Gunnar made a good deal and bought a PV from the Gothenburg Volvo dealer. Volvo fitted an 'American spec' 85-hp engine in the car, and Gunnar started to use it in rallies and ice races.
He entered the European Rally Championship in 1958. The first rally was held in Greece and he led the overall championship after only a few events. In Sweden, he won the Midnight Sun Rally with co-driver Ellemann-Jakobsen and was rapidly becoming a name. Volvo boss Gunnar Engellau was quick to realise the marketing value of these triumphs and Volvo-Gunnar started to appear in the Volvo marketing.
The famous photo of an airborne Gunnar Andersson in his PV during the 1958 Midnight Sun Rally which he won. For marketing reasons Volvo retouched this photo making a PV544 out of the 444 which Gunnar actually drove.
Prior to this, Gunnar had joined the Volvo Service School and has suddenly become Volvo's most famous personage alongside Gunnar Engellau.
"I was supposed to work as an instructor at the school, but I could not combine it with my rally career." he explained. "So I transferred to a combination of marketing and driving.1958 was my best year, although I decided not to compete in the RAC rally in Britain since I had already won the overall European Championship. This is something I have regretted ever since – I would have been unbeatable and an RAC win is something special."
Gunnar Andersson was not exclusively a works driver. In 1959, he won the Swedish Track Racing Championship as a private entrant, ahead of Tom Trana who was also to acheive great success as a Volvo driver."I liked being a part of Volvo", Gunnar said. "It was fun to drive a Swedish car, especially far from home like in Argentina. And the Volvo crew had a fantastic team spirit."
It was in Argentina that Gunnar acheived one of his greatest victories in his PV, winning the Gran Premio in 1960. Two years later, Volvo swept the board in the same event, taking six of the top eight places.
In 1961, Gunnar entered the classsic Italian cross-country race, the Mille Miglia, in a Ferrari 250GT Berlinetta – and was the overall winner.
To commemorate this victory, he was invited to take part in an exhibition version of the Mille Miglia in 1984. Although driving a white Volvo PV544 on this occasion, he was universally recognised and hailed by the car-mad Italian fans.
In 1962, Gunnar Andersson was summoned by Gunnar Engellau and asked to scale down his rally involvement to take the job of competition department manager. Although the prospect did not appeal to him, Gunnar reluctantly accepted the job and promoted the careers of a number of promising young drivers, including Tom Trana, Carl-Magnus Skogh, Bengt Söderström and Sylvia Österberg.
He still competed in rallies and crowned his career by winning the European Championship in 1963. While Tom Trana won the RAC two years in a row, and became the Champion in 1964.
Later in the career Gunnar Andersson switched from PV to Amazon but the PV remained his favourite.
Under the direction of Gunnar Andersson, Volvo continued to produce rally accessories for dedicated enthusiasts while Volvo management decided to terminate all competition activities after some severe accidents.
In 1972, Gunnar established the Volvo Track Racing Trophy, in which 80 wildly enthusiastic drivers competed in their Volvo 140s. Five years later this event was superseeded by an equally attractive trophy for Volvo-badged rallycross cars and a Volvo 343 was also built in 1977 especially for the Swedish Rallycross Championship which also became champion in the hands of Per-Inge Walfridson.
The management's enthusiasm for competition was rekindled and Volvo established a works stable – The Volvo R-Team – to support the Volvo 343 in rallycrosss events with the European Championship as the ultimate of many prizes during some five years."Once the 343 rallycross venture was over, it was time for me to quit the competition scene", Gunnar Andersson said. "For a number of years, I was something of an ambassador for Volvo. I travelled the world for various product launches and, among other things, I was involved in crash testing. And, of course, I did odd spectacular test drives.
"I enjoyed a number of incredibly enjoyable years before I officially retired at the age of 65 in 1992, but I continued to travel as a Volvo ambassador for several years. Nevertheless, I still regard 1958 as the most enjoyable year of my life. This was when I won my first Euroepan Rally Championship and I will never forget the feeling."
Later in life Gunnar built his own PV444 using a twin-Weber DOHC 16 valve Volvo engine

I'm on my way back home from Expo West. What a trip. Expo West was pretty cool, but even cooler was being featured and pictured in the NY Times yesterday.
A lot of people are wondering what I am going to do with the money generated from renting our rental condo during the DNC… I won't be using it to go on vacation or buy something material. I will be right here in Charlotte during the convention. I have big plans for the funds which will be used to continue to grow this site and spread the movement to label GMOs, holding President Obama accountable for the promises he made in 2007. I met some very well connected and influential people at Expo West that I want to work with to help spread the movement using the convention as a back drop.
You can do your part now – Please sign the petition at Just Label It – You have the right to know what's in your food.
Speaking of food… On Friday night, I attended a fundraiser for The Organic Center, a non-profit who's mission is to spread education and the benefits of organic agriculture. It was a night full of schmoozing and boozing… One highlight of the evening was introducing myself to a few big wigs – I had no idea who they were at first… it was fun later finding out exactly how powerful these people are. I think they were pretty impressed with my tenacity.
The entire evening encompassed everything ORGANIC – down right to all the drinks offered….. The beer, the tea, the sparkling beverages…
And all of the wine selections… I tried a glass of the organic cabernet (4th bottle from the left)
The hostess and MC of the evening was the lovely Sara Snow (and her daughter Silvia)… I've been following Sara Snow for quite sometime – I used to watch her show about living an organic lifestyle on Fine Living years ago and admire her so much…. To meet her was definitely the most exciting part of the event for me.
The keynote speaker of the evening was Dr. Alan Greene. He opened his speech with with a provocative statement – "Eating is like unprotected sex – Chew food you can trust "
I wasn't sure I could digest or trust the words he was saying though, after getting the 411 from one of my dinner companions… Dr. Alan Greene is a celebrity doctor that is riddled with controversy. The Cornucopia Instittute asked for The Organic Center to drop Dr. Greene as a speaker from the agenda. This is all because of his financial ties and support of suspicious synthetic supplements he encouraged to be added to infant formula and milk most commonly sold by the brand name "Horizon." You can read all the facts behind this shadiness here.
For dinner there was a pretty large organic buffet set up… my friend and mentor, Max Goldberg and I enjoyed catching up over dinner. He runs Livingmaxwell.com – a guide to organic food and drink. If you like reading this site, you'll definitely like his too – check him out.
I got a little bit of everything from the buffet. I loved the big roasted carrots and asparagus with the quinoa – The salmon was very good too. It's been a while since I had wild salmon.
I also tried some of this organic chocolate torte (my favorite!) and a few other desserts…. with lots of fresh organic raspberries.
Toward the end of the night – Gary Hirshberg took the stage to give some closing remarks. I'm a big fan of him, especially since he left his CEO role at Stoneyfarm and committed to spend his time getting GMOs labeled and partnering with the Just Label It campaign.
By the door on the way out – there were lots of goodies to take home. Nature's Path granola, organic coffee, reusable bottles and bags,
Reader Question: If GMO's get labeled and find out your favorite foods have them – What will you do? Will you still buy them?
There's lots more to share from my trip out west coming soon!
Have a great week…
Food Babe

Yellow clivias are cheery flowering houseplants
(Read article summary)A yellow clivia such as Golden Dragon is an easy to grow houseplant that chases away the winter blues.
Courtesy of Lois J. de Vries.
The only houseplant I remember being on Grandma's windowsill is clivia. I never saw her do anything to it, but it always looked healthy. And, oh, the flowers! But I never bought one myself because I don't like the color orange.
So, when breeders managed to produce yellow-flowering clivia, I just had to have it. That was in 2008.
In 2009, my plant produced a small yellow bump stuck so far down in the leaf clump that you couldn't see it without standing directly over the plant and examining it with a magnifying glass. I don't think that qualified as a flower.
Finally, blooms worth waiting for
But this year, it took a little more than a month from the time a flower stalk emerged until the plant reached its full, magnificent bloom. Checking its daily progress gave me something to look forward to during those dreary cabin-fever-filled days when it was too dangerous to venture out onto the glacial ice cap that covered our backyard.
And now I'm wondering whether my Golden Dragon clivia (Clivia miniata flava 'Golden Dragon') simply had to mature a bit longer before it threw forth such a spectacular blossom, or if its flowering was triggered instead by the additional light reflecting off the three-month-long snow cover.
Either way, the dramatic plume, which opened one flower at a time, was worth the wait.
Yellow clivias are somewhat expensive, but buy the largest plant you can afford because it can take three to six years for seedlings to bloom, usually sometime between February and May.
I've heard that a plant must have at least 14 leaves in order to flower. While I haven't found documentation to support that, my plant does have 17 leaves.
What clivias like
Clivia is an undemanding plant that is related to amaryllis, but prefers much less light and will sunburn easily. Keep it in a north window, or separated from a sunny window by a thin curtain. If you move your clivia outdoors for the summer, put it on a covered porch or in full shade.

I know it's killing me, but mu family room TV is having problems and the wife has been on me to call someone $400 to fix it or $150 to fix it myself. So until I fix it (parts on UPS truck) I can't justify to her buying a $500 plane. Hopefully once I (IF I) fix it I get a high five and and okay buy the plane. fingers crossed or im out $150 and gotta call the tv guy.

The $30 bump in price is caused by their oversize fee they tack on. On the page it's whatever the price is and below that it lists the oversize fee. Put it in your cart and the oversize fee is lumped into the price.
I spent too much on other stuff this BF and CM likely will have to wait until next year, whether wram show, birthday, BF or Christmas. But I still follow (and hope they come through with another distributor in the meantime) |

I spoke to a couple of my friends at "Hobby Town USA" that are managers in the RC Departments, and they said that they have been made aware that there is some kind of negotiations going on about them receiving the new line of FMS products and will be selling them, but nothing about when? or for sure yet?
I wa also offered a part time job as an RC rep as well .... in light of what I was doing with mine and knew about them |

I know that BH adds the $30 oversize fee but the plane should list with the $30 added in .
When I sell on ebay and state free shipping of a plane , I know exactly what size it is when I list it . I just don't agree with a "click and bump strategy" , perhaps its just me but don't like that system . Also now at $449 , your about 50 to 60 bucks off of RC Castle and he (Raymond ) Answers all emails . Anyway back on subject, anyone know where to get the 2.4 orange spectrum receivers ? Hobby King is out and I have had nothing but great luck with those receivers |

My wife is pretty understanding, but to a point. When the models start turning up in bedrooms and living rooms she gives me the 'eye'.
I help guys out by fixing models and I sell some of mine occasionally so I have them going in and out of the house and if one stays, I can sometimes get away with it..... |

There are some pregnancy unusual symptoms that can signal the egg's fertilization before a pregnancy test being taken. While morning sickness, tiredness and missed periods are common pregnancy symptoms during the gestation period, there are also some uncommon pregnancy symptoms. Thus, if you're planning to have a baby and want to know when the happy moment of conception takes place, make sure to get familiar with these unusual symptoms of pregnancy as this is the only way to recognize them as soon as they appear.
Which are the Pregnancy Unusual Symptoms?
Loose Skin
Perhaps the most common of all these pregnancy unusual symptoms are skin issues, starting with the itching sensation that seems to affect the entire body and ending with the loose skin noticed in the underarms or belly.
Certain skin issues, such as the occurrence of spots and darker points, are caused by liver problems or by changes in hormone levels. But these aren't the only pregnancy unusual symptoms: the visibility of veins in the chest area, on the belly, in legs and arms increases, as the blood volume and flow enhance. Although this isn't a harmful condition, it may become unpleasant when the woman is already very thin.
Runny or Stuffy Nose
Having a runny or stuffy nose is common for pregnant women, although most expecting moms aren't aware of the fact that these symptoms can signal the egg's fertilization. Then, accusing backache and hip or leg cramps can also be a sign of pregnancy, although not a specific one for the first week of the gestation period. Runny or stuffy nose causes because of the inside of the lining of your nose also swells and swelling decreases the are for air circulation.
Spider and varicose veins
Your growing baby inside your womb requires a huge blood supply to deliver extra oxygen and nutrients. This circulating blood volume will increased by 50 percent. This put pressure on your veins and such it's common to develop spider and varicose veins in your legs and feet. There's no way to prevent them, but to decrease pain and swelling, elevate your legs when you can. For severe cases, wear support hose or even bandage-like wraps when you're out.
Swollen and protruding tissue around the anus
These odd symptoms of pregnancy are the result of increased pressure on the veins there, along with the added weight of your baby. They can also be irritated by constipation and straining in the bathroom. Ease the inflammation and pain with cream, medicated pads, and warm baths. Post-baby, this may go away completely.
Metallic Taste
Other strange symptoms of pregnancy are a metallic taste in the mouth during pregnancy. You will feel these weird pregnancy symptoms in the first trimester. It can be very uncomfortable and annoying. Doctors have a range of different theories about what causes this change in taste, also known as dysgeusia. In general, this weird pregnancy signs is most likely due to a fluctuation in hormone levels, particularly estrogen, which can affect your sense of taste. You may be experiencing a heightened awareness of the bitter taste sensation, which causes you to detect trace amounts of ingredients in foods that you may never have noticed. It can also be due to an acute sense of smell, which can make you more aware of bitter tastes.
Pregnancy Unusual Symptoms – What Causes Them?
Just like common signs of pregnancy, the pregnancy unusual symptoms are triggered mainly by the hormonal changes taking place inside the expecting mom's body. Estrogen and progesterone levels increase once the placenta starts forming and HCG is released inside the organism for sustaining the healthy development and growth of the baby.
Then, the blood flow enhances, the water retention increases and the womb starts enlarging, all these changes affecting the mom's appearance just like they affect the internal environment. Learning about the changes occurring in pregnancy can keep away anxiety and help you feel more relaxed during the gestation period, despite the common or uncommon symptoms of pregnancy that manifest during the nine months.
What You Need to Know about the Pregnancy Unusual Symptoms
pregnancy unusual symptoms don't signal any health issue or impairment of your organism. They're just as normal as the weight gain or the swelling of the legs, so they should not be a reason of concern unless your overall health state is altered.
Pregnancy Unusual Symptoms– What Can You Do About Them
Given that these weird symptoms of pregnancy aren't threatening, you don't have to take special measures for maintaining your health state and protecting your body and your baby. However, paying attention and observing certain aspects of your body's evolution can help you detect pregnancy earlier, even when unplanned.
First, try to pay attention to your sinuses and respiration. If your nose is constantly runny and you feel a cold, you're nauseous and experience frequent aches in your head, mostly around eyes and in the forehead, you might be pregnant. Then, monitor your hair and skin for changes: if you start losing more hair than usually and your skin gets darker in certain areas or you suddenly get acne pimples and spots on the face, you should take a pregnancy test.
These are some steps you can take to easy the pregnancy unusual symptoms. For more information on pregnancy symptoms to take your time and read our other interesting article on no pregnancy symptoms, Periods during pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy signs, and frequent urination in pregnancy.

HD collections have become an increasingly popular trend on the PlayStation 3 after Sony bundled up the first two God of War titles for a rerelease last year. With the Sly Cooper remastering slated to arrive this fall and the Team Ico Collection due next year, it appears as if Warner Bros. Interactive will also be getting in on the HD collection action, if retailer listings from the US and UK are to be believed.
Currently, UK retailer GAME is listing the Mortal Kombat HD Arcade Kollection for a PlayStation 3 release in November, priced at £49.99 ($78.12). Oddly, GAME is currently running a promotion on the unannounced game that drops its price to £39.99 ($62.50).
GAME's listing is bolstered by a since-pulled product page in US retailer GameStop's online database. Captured by Mortal Kombat enthusiast site TRMK before its removal, the product page for the Mortal Kombat HD Arcade Kollection has it listed for the PS3, carrying a $39.99 price tag. According to GameStop, the game can be expected to ship on November 16.
Additional details on what the Mortal Kombat HD Arcade Kollection contains were not revealed by either listing. WBIE had not responded to requests for comment on the product spaces as of press time.

"The human being down here in the darkness of his fleshly state is as mysterious as the saints in heaven in the light of their glory. There are in him inexhaustible treasures, constellations without end of sweetness and beauty which ask to be recognized and which usually escape completely the futility of our regard. Love brings a remedy for that. One must vanquish this futility and undertake seriously to recognize the innumerable universes that one's fellow being carries within him. This is the business of contemplative love and the sweetness of its regard."
Jacques Maritain, quoted in A Year With Thomas Merton: Daily Meditations from His Journals, ed. Jonathan Montaldo (HarperCollins, 2004), p. 273
