Makwetla: The doyen of South African mining Brian Gilbertson has returned with big investment plans for the thriving coloured gemstone business. I am intrigued already.
Creamer: Brian Gilbertson, the man who created the biggest gold mining company in the world, BHP Billiton, is back with Pallinghurst. He has got his own skin in the game now and he is putting this business through the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
One of the pillars of that is gemstones and he is saying that these gemstones – emeralds, sapphires and rubies – are at the stage that diamonds were 100 years ago and that the markets are booming in London and Paris and all the jewellery centres.
The actual mining side of it is very fragmented and under-capitalised and Gilbertson is moving in to change that, just as De Beers did 100 years ago. So, he has already got an emerald operation in Zambia, which he is transforming already with a bigger output, and his second pillar is Fabergé, which is the great brand name that was made famous in Russia.
Gilbertson has now got that Fabergé licence, which he bought from Unilever, and there will be a synergy between these gemstones and Fabergé. Of course, they are two separate pillars and will be operated separately, but the finest of the coloured gemstones will be branded with the Fabergé label.
Makwetla: Billions upon billions of rand going into coal mining to meet South Africa's huge future energy needs.
Creamer: Yes that's right. We find that if you add up the amounts being invested now in energy coal mining and expansion of coal mining, it is something in the region of R40-billion over the next ten years. We have Anglo Coal coming ahead with four new mines, the biggest of them Zondagsfontein coming through.
BHP Billition with R12-billion being invested in two new operations, the one is the Douglas Middelburg Optimisation project and the other the Klipspruit project. We also have the biggest supplier to Eskom, the black-owned Exxaro, listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
Their board has just approved a R9-billion additional investment into expanding the operation into Limpopo. The Grootegeluk coal plant that they have in Limpopo is already the biggest in the world, they are now going to double that up and also expand the mine.
We have Xstrata and African Rainbow Minerals with their R3-billion investment in Goedgevonden, which is due to produce next year. Then many medium-sized and smaller energy coal mine mining activities coming through, all on the back of a very strongly rising coal price.
The local price is also better than it was going into Eskom, but then the export prices are up in the high clouds of sometimes up to $150 per ton.
Makwetla: Johannesburg all set to host a record number of visitors for Africa's biggest mining exhibition.
Creamer: That is the Electra Mining Africa coming up again. There will be about 35 000 people coming through, which is a record number they are expecting. The exhibitors themselves have a record number of 700 exhibitors.
They have taken up every single spare inch of space at the expo centre at Nasrec, which is 34 000 m2 of space. This is the second biggest mining exhibition in the world and it will take place from September 8 to September 12.
Makwetla: Thanks very much. Martin Creamer is publishing editor of Engineering News and Mining Weekly, he'll be back with us at the same time next week.

Q: I use Gmail for my e-mail and calendar on my iPhone and iPad, but I'm wondering if there's any way to sync my Reminders with Google's Tasks? I'd like to have access to them from my computer, but it seems silly to have to log into the separate iCloud website just for that one thing. I'm a Windows user, so I don't have an "iCal" app like Mac users get. I've heard that I might be able to do this by setting up my Gmail account as a Google Sync account, but I don't quite know that means. Any advice you can give me would be great.
- Edwin
A: Unfortunately, there is really no straightforward way to do this. Although iOS Reminders can be synced via the standard CalDAV protocol—the same method that the iOS Calendars app uses to sync with Google Calendar—Google Tasks are unfortunately not accessible via CalDAV.
Google Sync is a feature whereby Gmail users can get "push" e-mail, calendar, and contacts using Microsoft's Exchange ActiveSync technology, however Google has discontinued this service for standard Gmail users; it remains available only to business, education and government customers. Further, however, although the Exchange ActiveSync protocol allows for the syncing of Reminders with an actual Microsoft Exchange server, Google has similarly not provided any access to Google Tasks via Google Sync.
If you want to use Google Tasks, this means that your only option is to look to a third-party app designed to work with this service. Since Google's release of its Tasks API, several apps for Google Tasks have appeared on the App Store, however these act as replacements for the built-in Reminders app.
Third-party tools could potentially bridge the gap between the two services, but there do not appear to currently be any such tools available. If you're using Microsoft Outlook, you can sync Reminders via the iCloud Control Panel for Windows and sync Google Tasks via Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook, however your tasks will sync to two separate data files, so this still doesn't provide a solution for easily moving tasks/reminders between the two services. Further, Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook also requires a paid Google Apps for Business account.

Office365 (Microsoft's "Google Apps", not the MS Office Suite) does sync with iOS Reminders. Nice doing it this way, as you get some extra fields—apparently they're present in iOS, but Apple 'hides' them. It's useful as you get a reminder-date >and< a due-date—lots of users want to be 'reminded' about something 'due' in the future.
Outlook.com accounts sync directly with iOS Reminders as well.

Radially inwardly of the pouring edge of the cup the lid has a recess which comprises a bottom and an annular side wall, said side wall being spaced from the inside surface of the cup so as to present around a portion of its circumference a slot-like interspace between the inside surface of the cup and the annular side wall. The volume of liquid contained in the cup is such that the liquid, when the cup stands vertical, fills the whole of the cup below the bottom of the recess and fills at least a portion of the slot-like interspace.
3 Claims, 1 Drawing Figure Patented May 30, 1972 flaw/Mn 5,; Vans ,4 fax/m.
LIQUID CONTAINERS The present invention relates to a liquid container comprising a cup containing a more or less low-viscous substance and closed by means of a lid.
The invention primarily relates to containers for beverages, such as fruit juice, so-called still drinks, milk, yoghurt, etc. Beverages of this nature are normally sold in plastic cups which have been sealed with an aluminum foil lid. A serious disadvantage associated with hitherto known containers of the type referred to is that a relatively large volume of air is entrapped between the surface of the beverage and the lid and that this air, together with its content of oxygen, acts detrimentally on the liquid stored in the container. The object of the present invention is to eliminate the aforementioned disadvantage to the greatest possible extent, this being achieved according to the invention by means of a container defined in the appended claims. Because of the narrow radial width of the slot-like interspace between the inside of the lid and the inside of the cup the free surface of the liquid is restricted to a small ring in the upper portion of the slot-like interspace, thereby reducing the risk of oxidizing the liquid to a minimum. Containers manufactured in accordance with the invention are suitably designed to enable them to be nested for packaging purposes and the lid should preferably be capable of being replaced subsequent to consuming a portion of the contents of the cup.
The cup and the lid are both suitably made of a known type of plastic material, such as polystyrene, which can be heat moulded or extruded and which enables the lid to be sealed to the cup as by such welding methods as ultrasound welding, high-frequency welding or friction welding.
A suitable construction of a liquid container according to the present invention is illustrated in enlarged scale and partly in section in the accompanying drawing.
The conical, plastic cup is provided at its pouring edge with a radial, annular lip 1 1.
The plastic lid 12 has a relatively deep recess which forms a flat bottom 13 surrounded by an annular side wall 14. The wall 14 is radially spaced from the inside face of the cup to provide a slot-like interspace 15. The flange forming edge portion 16 of the lid extends over the lip 11 of the cup and is provided with an annular groove, the bottom 17 of which is secured to the lip 11 as by welding. One side 18 of the groove is connected to the upper edge portions of the wall 14 and forms therewith a downwardly open channel 19.
The other side 20 of the groove is connected to the outermost edge portion 21 of the lid, said portion forming an annular flange spaced axially from and above the lip 11 to leave a gap 22 having a width of not less than 2 mm and deep enough to allow the edge of a coin to be inserted, for the purpose of separating the flange 21 and lip 11 by twisting the coin. The strength of the weld at the bottom 17 is such that the weld can be broken by exerting a force which allows the lid to be removed without being damaged.
To enable the lid to be centered with respect to the annular side wall 14 there are suitably provided in said side wall three evenly spaced shoulders 23, which are formed by creating local bulges in the side wall 14. These shoulders also serve to retain the lid in position when it is replaced, subsequent to breaking the weld at 17.
As shown in the FIGURE, the cup is filled with a liquid 24 to such an extent that, when applying the lid, the liquid is pressed up into the slot-like interspace so that its level 25 is situated in the vicinity of the pouring edge of the cup. The free liquid surface is thus reduced to a minimum in relation to the surface which would be obtained if the liquid would not fill the cup up to a level corresponding to the underneath of bottom 13. If desired, the cup can be filled so that the liquid surface 25 is level with the pouring edge of the cup. This is achieved by dispensing to the cup a quantity of liquid which slightly exceeds the amount which the cup is intended to contain. Surplus liquid and air is then displaced when applying the lid. All containers filled in this manner will therefore contain exactly the same quantity of liquid.
As will be seen from the FIGURE, the recess 13 also forms a seating which permits piling of the containers.
Subsequent to removing the lid 12, it can be placed to one side with the bottom 13 turned upwards. Any particles of water adhering to the surface of the lid will then run down around the outside of annular side wall 14 to be collected in the now upwardly open channel 19, thereby preventing in a simple manner liquid from running outside the edge of the lid.
The container of the invention can be used for more or less low viscous products and also such products which are in liquid form when put into the container but which later form more or less solid pastes or the like which should be protected from the harmful effect of air to the highest possible degree before the lid is removed.
What I claim is:
1. A disposable type container structure for liquids of low viscous consistency comprising:
a cup having a tapered side wall configuration of annular cross-section;
the smaller diameter end terminating in a bottom wall joined to said annular side wall;
the larger diameter end having an outwardly extending annular shaped pouring lip;
a lid for sealing the open larger diameter end of said cup;
said lid having a tapered side wall configuration of annular cross-section;
the small diameter end of said lid side wall having a bottom wall integrally joined to said side wall;
the larger diameter end of said lid side wall having an outwardly extending lip;
an inner portion of said lid lip extending below the free end of said lip and resting on said pouring lip to define an annular space between said lips;
the tapers of said cup and said lid being similar whereby the adjacent side wall sections of said cup and said lip are substantially equally spaced from one another to define a narrow slot-like interspace between the inner surface of said cup side wall and the outer surface of said lid side wall;
the spacing between the lip of said cup and said lid side wall and between the bottom end of said lid side wall and said cup side wall being substantially equal;
said cup being filled with said liquid to a level above the bottom wall of said lid so that said liquid fills at least a portion of said slot-like interspace to minimize the exposed area of the top surface of said liquid.
2. A container according to claim 1, characterized in that the annular side wall of said lid is provided on the outer surface thereof with a plurality of radial shoulders adapted to center the lid recess in the container so that the slot-like recess has approximately the same radial width around the circumference of the cup.
3. A container according to claim 1, on which cup lip a corresponding portion of the lid is secured by joining together the mutually abutting surface of the lip and the lid, characterized in that the edge portion of the lid includes a radial edge flange whose radial outermost portion is axially spaced from the lip of the cup at a distance of at least 2 mm therefrom to enable a coin to be inserted between said portion and the lip for the purpose of removing the lid, and that the aforesaid inner portion of the lip of said lid is provided with an annular groove, the bottom of which abuts the lip of the cup and is affixed thereto by means of a weld which can be broken by twisting said coin, one side of the groove merging with the edge flange of the lid and the other side of said groove merging with the upper portion of the side wall of the recess.

Product description
The classic bestseller behind this year's biggest movie, this film tie-in edition features the complete story of Bilbo Baggins' adventures in Middle-earth as shown in the film trilogy, with a striking cover image from Peter Jackson's film adaptation and drawings and maps by J.R.R. Tolkien. Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely travelling further than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard, Gandalf, and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an unexpected journey 'there and back again'. They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon...The prelude to The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit has sold many millions of copies since its publication in 1937, establishing itself as one of the most beloved and influential books of the twentieth century.

text: Package: release.debian.org User: firstname.lastname@example.com Usertags: britney Hi, With the fix for #624716 applied, b2 no longer crashes attempting to migrate xfce and friends (via "hint exo"). It does fail the hint, however, whereas b1 successfully migrated the package set based on the same input. Having spent a little while trying things, so I don't forget any of it, and in case anyone else spots a clean and obvious solution, my thoughts and analysis on that are below... The process of deciding which packages need checking for installability is roughly (see doop_source()): if source in testing for each binary still built from this source in testing mark all reverse dependencies as affected [A] add new source to testing for each binary built from the new source mark the binary as affected [B] if the binary exists in testing mark all reverse dependencies as affected [C] mark all reverse conflicts as affected [D] add / update the binary mark the new reverse dependencies as affected [E] Hinting exo initially results in cairo-dock-plugins, cairo-dock (via c-d-p) and ristretto being flagged as newly uninstallable. The first two are easily fixable by applying the patch from #614249 to steps C and E; step D uses get_full_tree() which is considerably slower but the number of reverse conflicts is generally small enough that it doesn't matter. Resolving ristretto turns out to be more complicated, unfortunately. The exo hint involves a number of source packages which provide ristretto's reverse dependencies. In the order in which they're considered: exo - mark ristretto as affected (step A) - ristretto becomes uninstallable libxfcegui4 - mark ristretto as affected (step A) - ristretto is still uninstallable thunar - mark ristretto as affected (step A) - ristretto is still uninstallable thunar-vfs - the source isn't in testing; so steps A, C and D are skipped - unstable's ristretto doesn't depend on libthunar-vfs-1-2, so the package isn't marked for checking again The net effect is that ristretto is left (incorrectly) marked as uninstallable and the hint fails. This is a little bit of a corner case (due to unstable's ristretto having dropped the dependency) but should still be fixed. Regards, Adam

"The world cannot go on like this" – Wenger speaks on losing his players to clubs who pay more
Arsene Wenger has admitted that he is a bit worried about losing his best players, to clubs who offer bigger weekly wages. But the Frenchman, who saw Robin van Persie leave for Manchester United this week, is consoled by the fact that it is a short-term problem, as the Financial Fair Play regulations will come into play soon.
"It is a concern," he said. "But you say we live outside of reality? No, we live in the economic reality that other clubs do not. There are some things we cannot afford to do, it is as simple as that.
"Honestly, I think it is a short-term problem – the world cannot go on like this. You cannot imagine that the world will go on just splashing money out without any return because people will get tired of that as you'll only have a few clubs competing with each other.
"[Financial Fair Play] will make a big difference, how quickly I cannot answer because I am not responsible for putting it in place."

France, 1764. In the waning days of the golden age of the French kings, an unearthly monster begins hunting the people of the tiny province of Gevaudan. King Louis sends his personal bodyguard, Francois Antoine, with a small army to kill the beast before public outrage over the killings can undermine the monarchy. However, Antoine finds himself upstaged by a 20-year-old peasant girl with more resourcefulness than all the King's army.

Yes, but did you watch the Pens during the regular season when the defense wasn't a problem?
It all goes back to not doing it rather than can't do it. The Penguins didn't do their job defensively, but that doesn't mean they can't do the job defensively.
And we didn't get worse by trading Michalek, he wasn't that good here, either. Niskanen plays a better two way game and he's moving up to the top 4. Despres will take his #5 spot.
So if everyone watched the Penguins throughout the season and saw Despres and Niskanen play, they should know how they play. It's really not that hard to understand. I'm not saying the Pens WILL win the Cup with that D, but if they play their game and play team defense they can compete and contend for the Cup.

- SMWI*: Saturday Morning Work-Out Inspiration
- Source: Red Panda by Matthew Pacunas via jaimejustelaphoto
I like to watch an old man cutting a sandwich in half,
maybe an ordinary cold roast beef on whole wheat bread,
no pickles or onion, keeping his shaky hands steady
by placing his forearms firm on the edge of the table
and using both hands, the left to hold the sandwich in place,
and the right to cut it surely, corner to corner,
observing his progress through glasses that moments before
he wiped with his napkin, and then to see him lift half
onto the extra plate that he asked the server to bring,
and then to wait, offering the plate to his wife
while she slowly unrolls her napkin and places her spoon,
her knife, and her fork in their proper places,
then smooths the starched white napkin over her knees
and meets his eyes and holds out both old hands to him.

What is wrong??
I have 12 containers with 2 plants in each container. I am using Al's Mix with lime, fertilizer and epsom salts added
Transplanted 2 weeks ago. Used Daconil 1st week.
11 of the containers are doing fine.
One container containing an Earl of Edgecombe and Stump of the World dont look so good. The leaves are a pale green and dont show much/any new growth compared to the other plants.
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong and what the fix is? I dont know if it is a disease, transplant shock, ingredients didnt get mixed well in this container, etc.
Would hitting them with Neptune's Harvest Fish and Seaweed help?
Image link:
Looks like either overwatering or salt poisoning. What was the reason for adding so many supplements? People do too much to there plants. The mix would have been enough. Only add additives when the plants needs it. Also, what size are the containers? Unless they are large over 12 gallons, one plant per container is usually recommended. with lime, fertilzer, epsom salts, you may get large plants with no fruit but this will be counteracted by the 2 plants edging each out for room.
My potting mix is pine bark fines, spaghnum peat and perlite.
The added ingredients are part of the mix recipe not extra additions, sorry for the misunderstanding.
My containers are 18 gal totes.
I think they look overwtered too. But, I think all the containers receive about the same amount. It has me puzzled.

Wi-Fi, a trademark of the Wi-Fi Alliance, is not a technical term; however, the Alliance has used the term to describe only a narrow range of connectivity technologies including wireless local are network as well as PAN, LAN, and WAN. "IEEE 802.11", the technical term, has been used interchangeably with Wi-Fi even though Wi-Fi has become a superset of IEEE 802.11 over the past few years. It is used by over 700 million people and there are over 750,000 hotspots and around 800 million new Wi-Fi...

School lunch prices may go up in Londonderry
"In many cases, participation has dropped because we're forcing the children to take something they don't want," Faucon said at Tuesday night's School Board meeting. "This has been an issue especially with the high school students."
To potentially earn more revenue, last fall the district launched a new breakfast program at the middle school, along with separate lunch lines for those getting lunch or just a small snack.
Faucon said the middle school breakfast program resulted in about $1,500 in revenues at the middle school this year- essentially breaking even when factoring in labor and food costs.

Asiatics and foliage dieback
I started growing lilies about 2 yrs ago, I have both asiatics and orientals. For some reason, my asiatic foliage starts to turn brown, pretty much as soon as, or even slightly before, they bloom. Now, some of them are finished blooming, and the foliage is all brown and dead looking, but only with the asiatics, the orientals still have nice, green foliage. Is this normal for them to die back so soon? Or, does it indicate some kind of fungal/insect problem? They bloomed beautifully, so it doesn't seem to affect the flower quality. I should mention that the asiatics and orientals are planted in the same bed. Thoughts?
I had some pink asiatic that did that this year. I chalked my problem as being over run by my crimson pixies. I figure I will move them and thin out the crimson pixies. Hopefully they will do better next year.
I would make sure they aren't over crowded or being shaded by another plant. Hope this helps I'm still learning about lilies myself.

A TV pilot which failed to attract sponsors, After Hours carries all the poignance of a noble lost cause. Despite a certain self-consciousness in presentation, which clearly aims at winning over a recalcitrant audience, some of the best jazz ever recorded on film is available here. After an opening montage devoted to Manhattan jazz clubs accompanied by the narrator's patter ("This is my beat — the jazz beat"), one is introduced to the 'cigarette girl' and 'doorman' at the "After Hours Club," complete with fictional glosses (the girl is an "aspiring actress"). But as soon as Coleman Hawkins enters, joins the rhythm section on the bandstand and launches into a gorgeous version of "Lover Man," the film properly gets down to business.Jonathan Rosenbaum on After Hours (1961), featuring Johnny Guarnieri, Coleman Hawkins, Roy Eldridge, Barry Galbraith, Milt Hinton, Cozy Cole, and Carol Stevens.

Orchids underground: a beautiful parasite
In 1928, a farmer digging in his garden found a flower blooming underground. Three years ago, scientists discovered that it's so well adapted to living underground that it has lost almost all of its chloroplast genes. While this species is unusual for an orchid in the extent of its parasitism, it turns out that all orchids are actually parasites--stealing nitrogen from tiny fungi in the soil without trading any carbon back as plants usually do. See photos of the underground orchid here.

The Gravekeeper's Paradox
The Gravekeeper's Paradox The impermanency of stone is visible everywhere at Mount Auburn. One headstone Gallagher and I stop at has been sandwiched between two wooden braces a few feet away from its rectangular base. Both pieces were struck by a snowplow during the winter, and a few chips in the base form a scar that shines bright white against the old greenish-grey rock. Gallagher's assistant, Steve Brown, is trying to glue the monument back together. "The whole stone used to be white like that. That's an algae growing on it," Gallagher says, pointing to the damage.

This is an environment of welcoming and you should just get the hell out
Adapted and developed by Greg Daniels for NBC, the American version of The Office debuted on March 24, 2005, and viewers and critics were intrigued from the start. More than 11 million people tuned in to watch the remake of the British series' pilot, and it was met with negative reviews from critics who were disappointed that it seemed like a cheap carbon copy. The following week, though, Daniels' series proved that it could and ultimately would shine on its own, as the episode "Diversity Day" introduced us to the real Michael Scott, and how this horribly awkward goon of a Dunder Mifflin boss would affect the lives of his poor office drones.

Is genetic reductionism shaping our identity?
"What would it mean to live in a society where people seek only the significant same." Reductionist discourses tend to infiltrate both genetic and big data enterprises.

Could such discourses also "hide rather than reveal the deepest sources of social ills," which shape the evolution of our genes and identities?

It was a dream of a place for a wider society that was full of people disconnected from the land. That dream was never for us, the people who work this land. We were already here doing what we do. I wanted to tell her that she had it all wrong – she didn't really know this place or its people at all.

The leading steel stocks have really struggled to catch a bid higher since mid-March 2012. Today, is really no exception for the important sector as most of the leading steel stocks continue to trade lower. U.S. Steel Corp (NYSE:X) is considered one of the leading stocks in the industry group. This leading stock is trading lower by 0.30 cents to $25.23 a share. Short term traders can watch for intra-day resistance around the $25.00, and $24.00 levels.
Some other leading steel stocks that are declining lower today include Nucor Corporation (NYSE:NUE), ArcelorMittal (ADR) (NYSE:MT), Steel Dynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ:STLD), and Schnitzer Steel Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:SCHN). All traders should remember that the steel sector will usually trade inversely to the U.S. Dollar. Today, the U.S. Dollar Index is trading sharply higher and this is certainly putting pressure on the sector.

ACLU Letter to New Orleans City Council Regarding OPP
December 8, 2005

Among the first issues the council should address at the hearing is whether an adequate evacuation plan exists for OPP.

Obama's Notorious 'First Time' Ad Ripped Off From Australia?
You might recall the Obama political ad a few weeks ago that featured a practically unknown Hollywood "celebrity" talking about her "first time" in a video ad? The ad eventually revealed that her "first time" wasn't her first time having sex, but was her first time voting for President. This ad was hailed as innovative and new. Turns out it was just a rip off of a 2010 ad from the Australian elections.
The ad featured Z list celebrity Lena Dunham, a young woman that has done a few things in the entertainment industry but is largely unknown. The ad starts out with Mz. Dunham saying, "Your first time shouldn't be with just anybody" and goes on to portray the girl talking about how your "first" should be a man that cares about women, etc. As the ad rolls on you begin to realize that this girl is talking about voting, not sex.
Now, one thing about this idiotic ad that makes no sense. Mz. Dunham is 26-years-old. If she is talking about her "first time" voting now, why didn't she vote for Obama only four years ago? She was of age to vote. Why is this her first time if she thinks voting is so darn important?
Anyway, that aside, this ad was hailed as a great new idea. But, as it turns out, it isn't new at all. It was simply copied from an ad made by an Australian Green Party candidate named Sarah Hanson-Young.
In her video, Hanson-Young says things like "Your first time is a precious gift. Don't waste it. Don't give it away to just anyone. Be safe," before she goes on to talk about the 2010 election for which her video was created.
