|excellent climb, it is just sad that it stays so damp so much. By NRG standards this route is G rated, with very ample protection. It just depends on how much gas you are willing to burn by stopping to place gear.

|Thank you for your contributions guys. Following the above posts I updated the rating and removed 'PG13'. Did it 10 years ago and at first attempt I pulled out a TCU and almost decked--hence my impression. I agree that the "zip it up" kinda contradicts "PG-13". I also appreciate your advice, Ben, but I'll continue to climb at the bridge when I'm in the area :)

|Probably my favorite climb at the New, beautiful with great gear the whole way. You do have to do a little bouldering at the beginning before you get your first piece in the horizontal, but it's easy climbing. Just be careful and have a spot through it.

|Managed to bag this after long being intimidated by it. TRd it once three years ago when it was way way above me, took an end of the day run on it the other week and sent in less than optimal temps Sunday. Easily done with 6 pieces that are beyond bomber, plus the fixed nut if you know where to look. I agree the crack may be prone to skating some cams, but the right placements won't allow a cam to skate. Don't be afraid to climb a little instead of placing gear every move and you'll be fine.

There's for sure a deficit of competence in Brazil right now. Don't take me wrong. I'm an expat Brazilian myself.
Not that we Brazilians are more keen to soccer and "Carnaval" than anything else (that's a myth), but this is due the fact that the economical growth was meager not long ago, and that during this previous period not many expertise was formed. This is natural in countries that experience sudden resumed growth.
Turns out that almost anyone with a minimum of knowledge, experience and technical expertise is undertaking great responsibilities, that otherwise would require far better qualifications.
International companies investing in Brazil nowadays have to deal with this reality. It is also hard to export expertise. There is always some resistance to accept new approaches and methods from foreigners.
If you say something like this to a Brazilian, they will tell that you are against their success.
The economic boom taking place in Brazil is fantastic, but the outcomes of applied non-expertise will take a toll soon or later. This is also a cultural thing that needs to be fixed for the good of Brazil.
As a side note I would not be surprised to know that Brazil probably turns out more lawyers per year than China and India put together... This tells a lot about where the real money is - in the public service, in running scams and in running litigation.
Lawyers suing the government at all levels make tons of money. they are helped by an ultra corrupt judicial system and by incompetent or demotivated (but unsackable) government lawyers.
Those pay numbers sound suspiciously low for the US and UK, and probably even for Brasil, although on a PPP basis net salaries leave the Brasilian executive better off. What brings the averages down so much in the US/UK? I'd certainly recheck the data bases involved before taking the comparisons too seriously.
Actually Brazil churns out so many law students because most brazilians aspire to become incompetent, unmotivated and unsackable public servants. There is no way around it
Dear "The Economist"
As Mr benwardbr said, these number look weird, as big country's pay could not be that low. But I have an explanation for such a similar pay. In Brazil we have 100 banks, with the 7 largest holding 90% of the system's assets. So these bankers run big banks, and gain big bonus.
In the US you have put 6000 banks on your calculation, and among these 6000 banks there are some 5500 that are small and medium, significantly lowering the average. So this is not a fair comparison. Compare the salaries of the 10 largest in the US, HK and City with the 10 largest in Brazil, and you will se that Brazilian bankers earn less.
with much respect for your opinion, true in many instances, I'd like to add from knowing the pace (Brazil) well that it has no shortage of highly qualified managers. In fact it has world class experts on financial matters and business administration, where it excels with a battle-hardened elite that proved its value thoughout the decades where high inflation and financial instability were common place.
Where Brazil really comes short is in technical expertise, particularly in engineering, considering its size and its prospects. This is the result of decades of mismanagement by the government in high education and in fostering policies that could eventually provide suitable opportunities for the (few) engineers and technicians that it produced.
The numbers appear low because not all executives make millions of dollars a year, only those of the largest companies. Despite the difference, when the cost of living for an upper middle class lifestyle is considered, São Paulo is much, much more expensive. For the cost of a decent compact car in Brazil one buys a BMW in the USA. And let's not even get into housing prices...
cbon58, you're right that the lawyers capitalize on the latent corruption and sue their little hearts out, but the kicker is that the corrupt system is also so incredibly inefficient tht you can win and still lose by never geting paid or by collecting so much later that the award means next to nothing. Checks and balances, particularly where a lot of checks bounce.
Also, you forgot to mention that Brazilian bankers earn in BRL, and Americans eran in USD. The thing is that the BRL gained a lot of value over the USD in the last 6 years, helping distort the data. So I think "The Economist" was a little precipitaded in their conclusions this time. It happens...
Parelhas RN
I wonder what created this "deficit of competence" so fat and so big. "Anyone with minimum knowledge is undertaking great responsabilities". That's correct, and as Mr Alister Darling said in intervwes after the 2008 crisis: "Sometimes, is someone is making a lot of money, you must ask why and how". the ansewr to that in Brazil is LEVERAGE.
So this will not last for long now. Wanna bet ?
I am Brazilian but I live in China. I recently came back from Brazil, every time that I go there I get scared with the prices of everything. São Paulo has become one of the most expensive cities to live in the world, especially for middle class.
Of course, when talking about CEO and Directors levels, they have a much higher disposible income, but it should also be taken in consideration the cost of living there, where almost every good cost 2 or 3x what it cost in the US. Some services such as Telecom are insane.
I guess that if we had a ranking by Company Revenue divided by CEO compensation, Brazil will rank in the bottom.
Certainly a larger scale compensation needs to be completed, but from my experience and every executive recruiter I speak to in Brazil, executive salaries are competing or higher than other major economies worldwide.
Is this an official invitation to move to Brazil?
Another interesting perspective as to why the BRIC countries are overrated.
Many fortune 500 firms from the US and EU have to spend a great deal of time and money at training BRIC country employees from the factory floor all the way up and through the executive level in many managerial areas.
Interesting analysis and article. Also interesting posts.

I could get used to living in Key West
[10×14″ original watercolor, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 375.00]
From my perspective, looking out my window at five foot snowbanks, the town of Key West is a marvel.
An impossibly distant fantasy land of tropical luxury. Probably that's how the people that live there feel as well. Walking around, I couldn't get over how the houses were overwhelmed by lush greenery. Even the smallest home had an amazing garden.
[10×14″ original watercolor, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 375.00]
[10×14″ original watercolor, Audubon House, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 375.00]
One of my favorite spots was the Audubon House. Like many regional museums named after famous people from history, it's not actually *his* house, and it wasn't even built when he visited Key West. But – it is much like a house where he *might* have stayed, and he did make diary entries about the unusual trees in the same block.
As you sit in the overgrown gardens, enjoying orchids and bromeliads hanging from swaying palms, you can imagine him passing through on his quest for the wildest, strangest Birds of America. This was probably the best day of the trip for me. Such a great place to spend the afternoon. Painting this amazing garden, and taking breaks to go look at the gallery of birds. Makes you think you could get used to the Key West Life.
Though, reading a bit about it, it sounds like Audubon himself did not have it easy. His life included: fleeing conscription under a false passport, surviving yellow fever, dodging privateers, managing the family mine (his father figured everyone needed lead for bullets), getting through the civil war intact, ending up in debtor's prison, sketching death-bed portraits for quick cash, fighting the scientific establishment to see his work published, travelling the world hand-selling subscriptions to his prints – actually selling animal pelts he shot himself to raise funds for printing. Whew. that's just the first half of his life.
The house features a small gallery with some excellent reproductions of Audubon's prints, and of course the usual drink coasters and puzzles made from his art. I had to be impressed thinking about his body of work from 1838 still steadily selling. Never mind his great achievement in naturalist art, that right there is impressive to a working artist such as myself.
[9×12″ original watercolor, The Jolly Rover, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 375.00]
[10×14″ original watercolor, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 375.00]
I have to wonder what the year round experiences are in this town. It does seem precariously perched on a very low lying island, very far out in the ocean. Maybe living on a boat would be the answer? So you could be ready to bug out in hurricane season. I'd prefer to live on a pirate ship like the Jolly Rover. But, there also seems to be a fascinating niche culture of house boating. I am imagining scenes of fleets of these boxy floating homes desperately puttering ahead of an oncoming hurricane. Probably an overactive imagination there. But we'll see what climate change brings. Maybe these people are right!
I hope to get back to Key West again. We had a great time, and I'd love to make it an alternative to Montreal's winter.

Saint Patrick Preserve Us!
This past Sunday was Montreal's St. Patrick's day parade. Unfortunately for us, it was an inhospitable -8 C / 18 F. I heard someone say the wind chill rating was -17 /1. Not a great day for a parade.
But, somehow, St. Pat brings out the Fighting Irish in all of Montreal.
[I liked the Hat Sellers working the crowds]
Thousands of parade watchers were somehow willing to gather, muffled to the eyes in many cases, to tough out the cold in the pre-parade street party. I was surprised how early the crowds gathered, and what a great time everyone seemed to be having.
The parade marchers were even more heroic – the girls in Irish dancing costumes had to face the weather in skirts and tights. The marching bands had to be in uniform, no scarves for them. I imagine the people in giant padded mascot suits were the only ones warm enough that day.
These sketches are a testimony to the power of Urban Sketchers as a drawing club – as in, the great value it has for your own motivation. If I had not set a time to meet the other sketchers on the street I'd probably have given up. But I had made plans to get these drawings, so freezing wind be damned, I was going to draw.
It's also evidence of another theory of mine – that the hardships of drawing on location actually make the drawings better. It was necessary to work at great speed. Not just because the marchers were moving at a clip, or that your portrait subjects were constantly vanishing in the crowd – but because as soon as you open your pen, a countdown begins.
[Red Hats invade the Green Hats!]
In moments, the ink begins to stiffen up, and your fingers begin to hurt. Soon the pains are sharp enough you can't ignore. You have to tough it out to the end of the drawing, and then get your hands back into your coat. Great motivation to make the fastest drawing possible! (I was not wearing adequate gloves. I had read online to try latex gloves as liners for knitted mitts. Don't try this. It does not work in the slightest).
But either way, difficult conditions really help you make decisive drawings! You'll find yourself making the swiftest observations. It's amazing how it changes your work – towards the more aggressive, more spontaneous line.
Just look at this sketch of the fellow wrapped in the Irish flag – I think it's one of my best drawings ever. You can't make this kind of drawing at leisure. At home, in the studio, you just aren't stressed enough to kick into 'survival sketching mode'.
For people taking my Sketching People in Motion online class – these are done directly with the pen. No time for the pencil scribbles underneath that I demo in class. Not to say what I teach in the video is invalid, just that the Pencil > Pen > Brush method is a good way to learn, and when you're ready, you can go 'all in'. The color, by the way, was done afterwards in the cafe. You can't watercolor in a sketchbook in the cold. The paint simply won't dry, and you can't turn the page to carry on.
You might notice a bit of extra excitement in the line work – even beyond what came from the harsh drawing situation. This was my first test run with a Noodler's Creaper. Their so-called 'Flex Nib'.
I have to say it's not as flexible as a dip nib – but it's closer than I've had in a conventional Lamy or Platinum pen.
I have one minor complaint about The Creaper – the built-in ink filling system. It's an old fashioned design where you stick the whole pen nose down into the ink bottle and twist the back end to vacuum up ink.
It's mechanically sound – fills just fine – but there is a flaw.
If you stick the cap on the back of the pen while drawing – trying to fidget it off later causes you to turn the filling mechanism and squirt ink out of the pen. I was lucky to avoid ruining a drawing. The other downside is, you can't fill this pen if the ink level is your bottle is lower than the full length of the nib and feed. Whereas a cartridge-style ink filling gadget can get suction on the ink, even with only a few mils left in the bottle. Minor complaints – but there you go.
So far, the drawing feel of this pen is quite good, so I'm going to keep it for a while and report more as I go.
Sketching the Florida Intracoastal: Part Two – the Paintings
11×15″ original watercolor, Loggerhead Marina, 140lb cotton rag paper: SOLD
Carrying on from Part One: the Moleskine – here's the paintings from our cruise down the Florida Intracoastal.
11×15″ original watercolor, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 550.00
It was the last sketchbook drawing coming out of Miami that got me super excited. I wasn't so inspired by all the pastel condominium towers as we passed through the city, but as we were pulling out, a great storm started forming. As the city receded into a dark band on the horizon, we passed through a flotilla of sailboats. I loved the look of their sails standing out against the sky. I was more than a little surprised to see them jauntily sailing around with that weather coming in. They're clearly more confident that I was.
The colors of the sky and water, were more than a little surreal. Cobalt Teal Blue and DS Moonglow would definitely be useful for any watercolorists in Florida.
10×14″ original watercolor, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 550.00
The uniquely low-lying keys continued to offer this kind of composition. But, oddly, it started to look familiar. I used to see these paintings in galleries all the time back home. Just replace water with wheat, and mangroves with a wind break of trees.
10×14″ original watercolor, Pumpkin Key Sunset, 140lb cotton rag paper: $US 550.00
Halfway down from Palm Springs, just before we left the tip of the panhandle, we dropped anchor at Pumpkin Key. The best sunset of the trip. Well, it's hard to say *best*, there were so many – but the best I could sit and paint with a perfect view. The Captain tossed a crab trap overboard, baited with leftover BBQ ribs and next day we had fresh blue crab for dinner.
Next time – landfall at Key West!
Oh yes: on a housekeeping note, loyal blog readers might notice something new. Prices below the pictures.
I feel, after a few years of sketch booking, experimenting with materials, and learning about painting, that I'm finally ready to sell work. So, going forward, whenever I get something that rises to the challenge of painting on location, I'll put it on offer here.
Just email me at marc(dot)taro(at)gmail(dot)com if you're interested.
It would be a great thing to start selling some work via the blog. Besides keeping body and soul together, anything I might gain this way will go directly towards reaching interesting locations and trying new painting experiments. I am always seeking to improve the experience I can provide readers.
Evening in Hudson
We're just back from an evening with the Hudson Artists, thanks to Marie-Eve Lauzier who invited us out to give a demo for the group.
They have an active community of around 75 artists doing workshops, paintouts and group shows year round.
It was a fun night, getting to know our neighbors out west. Hudson seems like a very paintable town. You'll find scenic views of the water, parks and old houses. They're also conveniently situated across from Oka National Park, a short jaunt by ferry.
My demo was done from a snapshot taken on our recent trip to Florida. But honestly, as we're just back from painting dozens of these views, it was from memory more than anything. My main goals in about an hour of talking and painting were to show the simultaneous Larger-to-Smaller, Light-to-Dark and Wet-to-Dry progress of a watercolor.
This kind of painting is something I'm calling Big Brush : Small Brush. That is, the whole sheet worked over with a #14 round, and left to dry. Then the details touched in on top with a #2 rigger. I did touch a few things in the treeline with a #6 round. But really, you could do it all with the #14, it just calls for slowing down a bit and a light touch on the point.
I start with what I call The Three Big Shapes. Sky and Ground (in this case Water), and 'Everything Else'. The treeline, and all the boats and docks are simply left as a single negative shape at first, then in the second half of the painting, I come back into that long horizontal landscape, and create the shadows, masts, piers and other details that turn it into a marina.
Here's an older post on the same theory of painting, that I started playing with back in Rio de Janeiro.
Did you know Gouletpens.com sells Ink Samples?
This is probably old news to many of you – but I just discovered you can order ink samples from Gouletpens.com. They'll send you 2ml samples of any ink they carry, for only $1.25 a vial.
I think it's great marketing! Lets you do one or two test drawings, and I know I'll be back to order a few bottles of the right colors.
I also bought a Noodler's Creaper Flex and Konrad Brush Pen to try out. More on this when I get a chance to go doodling.
We're just back from Florida, travelling by boat down the Intracoastal Waterway. Which is one of many things in this world I had no idea existed.
The Intracoastal is a continuous water course combining natural rivers and man made canals to make a 4800 km protected passage along the Eastern Seaboard. We traveled from West Palm Beach to Key West, taking about three days each way.
This massive landscaping project was probably constructed for cargo and military traffic, but today it's a watery highway for sporting craft, party barges and the yachts of the rich and famous. Great sections of the canals are lined with beautiful houses and private docks. Not to mention hotels, marinas, and all the infrastructure to support vacation cruises (did I mention bars?).
Sketching from the stern as we cruised at 10 knots past palm trees, palatial mansions and mangrove islands – for me, it's the ideal way to discover this unique coastal lifestyle – so different from my own western Canadian experience.
The first day found us passing under a series of drawbridges. The boat captains are in constant radio communication with the bridge crews, trying to time our approach to cross below when they've stopped traffic. It must be a daily annoyance to the locals. Having to wait at raised bridges while gleaming pleasure craft glide by.
Being a son of the prairies, this was by far the longest I've spent on and around water and boats. I still haven't recovered days later – I can still feel the boat moving, despite begin on dry land. But the sheltered inland waterway gives you flat water, protected from the ocean's wave action, so it wasn't so bad sketching while underway. These were all painted rapidly in a 5 x 8.5″ Moleskine Watercolor Notebook. The panoramic spread is perfect for the low profile of South Florida's mangrove swampland.
The Florida cloudscape is also something new to me. Skies over water are amazing. Towering clouds form and reform in minutes, making an ever changing subject. A real change from the flat grey of Montreal's winter.
I had planned ahead, and brought a couple of new colors, which you can see prominently in this sketch. DS Cobalt Teal Blue and DS Moonglow. The teal is an ideal color for tropical water. I was glad to have it throughout this trip. Moonglow is kind of a gimmick. It's a convenience mix of Viridian, Ultramarine Blue, and Anthraquinoid Red – (for which you could substitute Perlyne Maroon) – so I actually have all the required colors in the 24 pan kit I was using. I *could* mix this shadowy purple as I go. But on the other hand, Daniel Smith is bottling it for you, so when you're painting a storm coming in this fast, you don't have to faff about.
More about skies and water next time when I'll show the larger paintings from this cruise.

Mission Accomplished
Pitchers put service first, find success in majors
LINDSTROM DESCRIBED HIS mission experience as \"irreplaceable.\" He
credits his service with helping him develop relationships and people
skills, and the fact that he was sent to the land of his ancestors was
a bonus.
\"That made it even more exciting to go over there and teach the people,\" he said. \"That's my heritage.\"
Guthrie said the work in Spain was difficult. He wasn't able to
teach as often as he would have liked, but the scarcity of listening
ears taught Guthrie humility and reliance upon gospel principles, which
in turn strengthened his own beliefs.
\"It made us realize that sometimes all you can do is pray and
have faith and work as hard as you can ... and hope for miracles,\" he
said. \"Obviously I grew in testimony and conviction of the gospel.\"
For Guthrie, his mission was an opportunity to take a two-year
hiatus from personal concerns. Being able to focus on others was a

you're expected to do is go out and find people and teach them by the
Upon their returns to the United States, both men found the shift
from outward to inward focus to be one of the most difficult
\"Those two years, you're so unselfish,\" Lindstrom said.
But because Guthrie and Lindstrom both returned with promising
right arms intact, baseball was waiting for them, and it was time to
start focusing on the game they left behind.
The two men maintained similar perspectives on their future.
Guthrie returned 20 pounds lighter and with no expectations when
it came to his athletic career. But his ability quickly returned, which
he counts as a blessing. Guthrie resumed his career at Stanford
University in the fall of 2000, and the following year he married Jenny
Williams, whom he met at BYU and wrote to throughout his mission.

New Orleans 98 at Memphis 91
Paul breaks out of slump, Hornets top GrizzliesSaturday, Mar 5, 2011
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP)—So much for Chris Paul's(notes) offensive woes.
Paul had 23 points and 14 assists, Willie Green(notes) keyed a fourth-quarter rally and the New Orleans Hornets beat the Memphis Grizzlies 98-91 on Friday night to move up in the Western Conference standings.
Paul, who was limited to 17 points over the previous three games, was 7 of 15 from the field, including 2 for 3 on 3-pointers.
"It was nice," he said. "I was able to get into the lane and create a little bit. We picked up the tempo. When we play at that type of tempo, that's the kind of game we need to play, and the kind of game we all can thrive in."
Willie Green scored 13 of his 15 points in the fourth as the Hornets snapped a three-game skid and moved past idle Portland into sixth place in the West.
"(Green) got hot, and they started looking for him," said Mike Conley(notes), one of three Grizzlies to finish with 12 points. "It's tough when he's making shots like that. Guys were putting hands up and playing good D, but that was the guy they were going to."
Jarrett Jack(notes) had 19 points for New Orleans, while Marco Belinelli(notes) and Carl Landry(notes) scored 14 apiece. Belinelli was 6 of 7 from the floor and Landry grabbed 10 rebounds.
Hornets coach Monty Williams said before the game he thought the criticism of Paul during the slump was unfair, and his second-leading scorer was taking the blame for a lot of other players' mistakes.
"Obviously, he hasn't played up to his standards," Williams said, before adding: "Sooner or later—more likely sooner—he's going to break out, and hopefully, everybody can retract all that was said about him."
Sooner, in fact, was against the Grizzlies, who had won five straight at home and remains in eighth in the West despite the loss.
"We didn't come out with a lot of energy early," Memphis coach Lionel Hollins said. "We couldn't sustain, and we weren't consistent."
Zach Randolph(notes) led the Grizzlies with 20 points and 11 rebounds. O.J. Mayo(notes) had 13 points, while Marc Gasol(notes) and Darrell Arthur(notes) also had 12.
Memphis had a chance to tie it with 34.1 seconds left, but Gasol missed two free throws, then fouled Jack, who hit both of his foul shots for a 95-91 Hornets lead.
"The first one, I felt like it was good, but it came up a little short," Gasol said. "The second one was a little longer. It happens."
The Hornets, who went 5 for 6 at the line in the final 32.1 seconds, managed to get the win despite losing leading scorer David West(notes) to a sprained left ankle with about 8:20 left in the first quarter.
New Orleans closed the first half with a 14-2 run to tie it at 45. Jack capped the surge with a layup in the final seconds of the second quarter.
Mayo had 11 points at the break, and Conley had 10, hitting all four of his shots. But he struggled guarding Paul, spending the final minutes of the half on the bench with three fouls.
The Hornets made nine of their first 11 shots in the third to build a 68-58 lead. But the Grizzlies rallied to send it to the final period tied at 72.
Williams had criticized his team's play and lack of passion after Wednesday night's 107-88 loss to the Knicks. The scolding apparently had an effect.
"Our guys came out with an attitude," Williams said of Friday's win, "whether they were mad at me, mad at themselves or mad at the world. The bottom line is, that's how we have to play."
NOTES: Hornets F Trevor Ariza(notes) was out with a strained muscle. … Many of the Grizzlies have begun sporting beards, part of a pledge to let their facial hair grow until they earn a playoff berth. … Mayo earned a technical in the first half when he and Paul got tangled up and Mayo reacted. … Memphis G Ish Smith, obtained in the trade deadline deal with the Rockets, got his first action in a Grizzlies uniform, entering in the third quarter. He had 4 points and an assist. … Mayo matched his season high with six assists.

Disability Practitioner In the Spotlight
Turning obstacles into pathways
Jodie's ambition at high school was to be a teacher. But when she lost her sight at the age of 16, the Careers Adviser for Visually Handicapped told her: "Don't be so stupid, you can't be a teacher." So determined to achieve her dream, Jodie became the first blind student at the University of Wollongong, undertaking a psychology degree. She then went on to establish the University's disability service, running disability awareness training for staff. Read more about Jodie
Webinar - Meeting the Challenges: Serving the Students
ADCET, in partnership with ATEND will host this free webinar on Tuesday, March 24 (1:00 pm - 2:00pm AEDST).

President Rafael Correa remains popular among his low-income supporters, but many others are unhappy with his radical populist agenda. There are even murmurings within the ruling Alianza País party, which suffered its first defeat in the legislature in late 2010. International capital markets are still closed to Ecuador following its 2008 default.
To watch: Crude justice. The provincial court of Sucumbios is likely to rule on a case claiming that Texaco, since bought by Chevron, polluted the jungle in the 1970s and 1980s. The case has been in the courts for 17 years.

A Gift Guide For Baby: Skip Hop
I have both a four year old, and a three month old. This Christmas my son is easy.

Wonder Bumpers: Keeping Your Baby Safe
When it comes to keeping baby safe in their crib the doctors and experts have many rules. No blankets...no stuffed animals and the big one. No bumpers!

Kia's Newest Concept Car Is A Station Wagon Because Wagons Are Cool

With hype around the 2015 Jeep Renegade maxing out, Kia reckons it can come play with its own spin on the micro "off-roader" idea. The Kia Trail'ster concept has meaty cladding, a roll-back softtop, and a drivetrain that makes it a very interesting proposition, especially if you value efficiency over dirt driving. » 2/12/15 10:24am 2/12/15 10:24am
Somebody left this great front-quarter image of the Kia Trail'ster electric "off-road" concept just laying around the internet, so we grabbed it for you. Looks like, well, a Kia Soul with fender flares and plenty of extra lights... which actually came out pretty nice! » 2/12/15 1:19am 2/12/15 1:19am
Kia's planning on unveiling their Soul-based Trail'ster e-AWD concept at the upcoming Chicago Auto Show, but they're just so damn excited they couldn't help but release this picture, seemingly taken by a dog. This should be a fun concept, and, unlike the other Soul-based "-ster" concepts, maybe it'll actually get made. » 2/06/15 10:30am 2/06/15 10:30am
Kia is using the phrases "capable electric all-wheel drive (e-AWD)" and "bold off-roader" to describe the concept they're bringing to the Chicago Auto Show on February 12. Looks a little like a lifted Soul... which could actually be awesome. » 1/30/15 10:43am 1/30/15 10:43am

In case you forgot that movie releases onto DVD are almost as big a deal as their releases into theaters, Kia's here to remind you by making a special Sorento to commemorate X-Men: Days of Future Past's release on laserdisc or whatever.

Kia is now the best car company in the world. Why do I say this? Because their concept cars from the SEMA show are equipped to feed you the two most important food groups, beer and ice cream. Hooray for both of those things! » 11/05/14 4:47pm 11/05/14 4:47pm
Hyundai and Kia just agreed to settle a case with the US government for overstating the gas mileage claims on about 900,000 of its cars a few years back.

It's only taken a little more than three years, but Kia has finally given the greenlight to their Kia GT Concept from 2011.

Hamsters have been working for years to free themselves of the stereotype of being the con-animals of the small-rodent world.

Nice cosy place. The menu is quite vast and that sometimes means problems to keep an even level. But this restaurant nails it! Really delicious food with friendly service. Not too expensive.
3 days in Stockholm
Stockholm for young kids
Stockholm on a budget
We had some of the very best good that we have eaten in stockholm. The restaurant has a warm and intimate atmosphere with very attentive service. Scallops were perfectly cooked and flavoured, the crab and prawn cakes came with a perfect combination of sauces. The owners recommendations were brilliant, including a lovely gin infused duck. Price was very good.
Small asian restaurant. Cosy interior.
Friendly staff especially the owner.
Nice selection of asian food from vietnamese over thai to philippine dishes.
Mooncake offers a modern variety of Asian delight with focus on Thai, Korean and Chinese crossover dishes. Very friendly atmosphere, attentive service and no disappointments. Especially the starters are excellent: order a combo and share around the table.
Great food. Have been here thrice now. Excellent starter salad, soup and mains. Good selection of dishes and wine
Slightly on the expensive side.
Great location and great decor! Was impressed by the interior. Would have loved a bit more space between tables; couldn't reach the rest room until some guests moved their chairs.
Service was some where between average to good. We ordered some thai dishes and could see that the outcome was an attempt to make fusion food, which finally ended up...
One day in the office, we decided to try somewhere new as we have been working in Stockholm for over 1.5 years and seemed to be eating at the same 6/7 places all the time.
After hunting around on Google for somewhere near the Marriott hotel, we found Mooncake.
What can I say, this place blew us away, we had...
Mooncake seems to be a elusive Asian fusion experience that keeps moving about Stockholm. But it has always been, and still retains it's magical ability to tickle our taste buds. The cross kitchen frenzy of several Asian influences is in a class of it's own. It also has a staff to match, which just makes things even better
Went with friends to Mooncake and not sure if it was going to be same experience as the restaurant with the same name that closed down some years ago. Interestingly, no only does this place use the same logo, it must be some sort of reincarnation too because the food was just as palate tickling as it was at the...
We entered this place by accident,after visiting the stadshuset on a cold January evening. Welcome was very warm. Expected to get a standard asian snack - and were surprised by really tasty and quality food. Hot, spicy and enough for hungry guests. Prices not as high as elsewhere in Stockholm,although higher than home,but worth it. Friendly and fast service. Recommended...

Chicago Hardy Fig in ground - Buffalo, NY
In the summer of 2012, I purchased a Chicago Hardy fig at Lowes. It was an impulse purchase and couldn't really find a good spot to plant it at my house here in Western NY. I ended up giving it to my girlfriends Dad. Her parents live on Grand Island, and the tree was planted on a slope along the Niagara River well above the water line. This fall, we wrapped it up in burlap to protect it from the wind and critters.
What can we expect in 2013? Will the above ground wood survive or will it just come up from the ground? Can we expect any fruit in 2013?
PS - I did a little research on the "Chicago Hardy" fig variety. It was actually cultivated in Sicily and has nothing to do with Chicago IL (other than possibly growing there.)
What to expect is;
A. It will either make it thru unscathed, which is very possible, depending on your lowest temps and how well it was wrapped.
B. the top growth could freeze to the ground in which case it will regrow but it will also cut down on how many figs it will have.
C. It might not get froze but voles or mice can chew the branches to the ground and sometimes even chew up the roots killing the tree. I've had that happen to my own and a friend had a 6 foot tall tree completely disappear from rodents. You never know until it's time to do the unwrapping.
You can buy stuff to keep rodents from chewing the tree, I think it's called "Scoot". If you can't find it you can grind up garlic and rub it on the trunk and lower branches. I couldn't find anything in the stores around here so I went with the garlic, this is my test year for that too.
Be prepared for the worst case scenario.
Best of luck to you
I put sturdy chicken mesh wire at the base around my fig tree so I can stuff in lots of fallen leaves, convered with old carpet, then
put bags of fall leaves around the tree to winterize my fig tree.
There are cats in the neighbour so rodent is not a problem in
my area.
I wonder if putting the sturdy chicken mesh wire at the base of the fig tree can deter mice in your case.
I've also read planting rue is good because rodents detest this
herb. I will plant some rue around my fig tree this summer.
Maybe instead of chicken wire around the base of the tree, could you use hardware cloth with the tiny openings? Is that what you meant by sturdy chicken mesh rather than regular chicken wire?
One thing to think about is that a mouse can squeeze through an opening the size of a dime and a rat can get through a nickel size hole. They will also burrow under the screen if they can't get through it. If they're hungry they will do whatever they can to get that meal. That is where some other kind of protection can help such as, traps, mothballs, rat poison or one of the rodent deterrents that you put on the bark of the tree to make it un-appetizing to them. It seems like there is always some other critters that like figs as much as we do.

The More Things Change...
The U.S. Supreme Court decision that desegregated public schools was a landmark moment in the history of the nation and the civil rights movement. But 60 years later, it is clear that while progress has been made, African-American and low-income children are not receiving an equal level of education. Here the Obamas and other Black leaders opine on the opportunities they and others enjoyed as a result of the ruling and how far the nation has yet to go. —Joyce Jones (@BETpolitichick)

Can 'Hunger Games: Catching Fire' Cross $175 Million in North American Debut?
Christmas looks to have come two months early for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
Lionsgate's sequel, hitting theaters Nov. 22, is generating massive interest and could easily cross the $175 million mark in its debut, eclipsing the $174.1 million launch of Iron Man 3 earlier this year to score the No. 2 three-day opening of all time after The Avengers ($207.4 million).
Lionsgate insiders are being more conservative, suggesting it will open in the $140 million to $150 million range.
PHOTOS: 'The Hunger Games: Catching Fire': The Character Posters
However, sequels to a blockbuster generally do notably more business. The first Twilight took in $69.6 million; a year later, Twilight: New Moon took in more than double that amount ($142.8 million). That's why more bullish observers believe Catching Fire could even cross $190 million.
The first Hunger Games opened to a whopping $152.5 million in March 2012, transforming the YA adaptation of Suzanne Collins' dystopian book series into an instant film franchise (the movie went on to gross $691.2 million worldwide, including $408 million domestically).
Catching Fire, costing far more to make than the first film ($130 million-plus versus $78 million), returns most of the original cast, including Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson in the lead roles. Liam Hemsworth and Elizabeth Banks also return.
The sequel does have a new director, Francis Lawrence. His credits include Water for Elephants and I Am Legend.

- Email | Twitter | Google+
A new energy certification program for contractors has emerged from a Colorado renewable advocacy group.
Ecotech Institute is offering the Building Performance Institute certification within its Ecotech Energy Efficiency degree program. The curricula will provide "national standards for energy efficiency retrofits and professional credentials."
Ecotech Energy Efficiency students will be able to tap resources from an on-site energy efficiency lab.
Locally, Portland's Earth Advantage has begun working closely with remodelers who serve clients seeking EA-certified work.
Ecotech is known for its research on clean jobs. The group reported last month that the U.S. counts more than 5,100 facilities management positions related to energy efficiency.
Andy is the Portland Business Journal's digital managing editor, overseeing the daily digital news operation.

Bordeaux is a wine region that relies on the reputation of its vintages. Highly esteemed years sell easily around the world, while poorly regarded ones are difficult to market even at home. When a year is undervalued and offers excellent wines at relatively low prices, it is called a "sleeper" vintage.

Eau d'Hermès by Hermès

So what happens to Joffrey Baratheon in the long run? Does he ever outgrow his insufferable moodiness? Does he, through the tragedies bound to face his amoral family, learn to take on a nobler perspective, pledging to lead life in the name of good? Does he lose his hair?
If so, then our theories about the upcoming Vin Diesel flick Riddick are correct: it's really just a sequel to Game of Thrones. After all, there is no other way to explain the George R. R. Martinian cathedra upon which star Diesel sits in the above picture from the new movie.
RELATED: New Fast '6' Poster, 'Fast 7' Rumors
The film itself is a follow-up to Diesel's previous Riddick movies, 2000's Pitch Black and 2004's Chronicles of Riddick. While it might disrupt the established continuity of the franchise to suggest that the whole thing is just one big over-the-top sequel to the fantasy drama TV show, the picture has us sold. And the second image, which you can see below? You just try and tell us that's not Diesel fighting the exhaustive breath of a fire-spewing dragon.
The pics come courtesy of the actor's renowned Facebook page, VinBook, which was also responsible for this majesty. Riddick hits theaters Sept. 6... and then we'll really see who's right and who's just been watching too much HBO.
