text: Analysis by Jean-François Pescheux, Tour competition director: "The first mountain stage of the Tour, and this year it comes a bit earlier than usual because we wanted to get to this point quicker and break up the race a bit sooner. After three early testers, the main difficulty of the day is the Col de la Colombiere, which is tackled from its tougher side: 16 kilometres at an average of 6.7%. The finish in Le Grand Bornand is exactly the same as the one where Lance Armstrong won in 2004. This stage will perhaps not unveil the winner of the Tour, because all of the main contenders are bound to stay close to each other. I can't see a climber being allowed to get away on their own either. But the stage will see the first big sort-out, with three-quarters of the peloton ending up out of overall contention, and it will allow some decent comparisons to be made between the contenders at the end of the first week."

Boxing Day is the busiest and for many, the most exciting shopping day of the year.
To help Kiwis tackle the crowds and nab the best bargains this year; The Warehouse has put together a list of top tips for the savvy shopper.
Make a budget
At times sales can be overwhelming, especially when products are 40, 50 or even 60 per cent off. However, keep your budget in mind when shopping so you're not starting the New Year on the back foot financially. If budget allows however, it's a great opportunity to plan ahead and stock up on birthday presents and family essentials for the rest of the year.
Shop the ads before the day
Keep an eye on advertisements in the lead up to Boxing Day; these are usually in newspapers on. This way, you can make note of what you're looking for and head to those departments first. Sale finder is also a great place to look.
Shop online
Avoid the crowds altogether and shop early online. The Warehouse has over 45,000 products online - almost its entire range. If you need to escape the chaos of Christmas Day for a spot of retail therapy, you'll find the Boxing Day deals online a day early.
Wake up early
This tip might seem obvious, however getting to the store early (or even before it opens!) could be the difference between getting that stand out bargain and going home without the deal you were after.
Consider public transport
If it's possible to reach your shopping destination with public transport, make use of it! Not only is it better for the environment, you'll also save time (and avoid frustration) by not having to circle the car parks.
Consider grouping purchases
If you are short on time and just want to hit the beach; group your purchases by just shopping at one department store. Stores often offer bundle deals at this time which is another great way to make your dollar go further.
If you see something you like, buy it
Boxing Day is a day where you often don't have the opportunity to think on purchases or ask staff to hold them for you. If something catches your eye and you have the budget to afford it, grab it quick!
Do not skip breakfast
The Boxing Day sales can spur some bloodlust-crazy behaviour, and you're going to need all your energy to face the fury. Get a shot of caffeine into your system and stop when you're feeling malnourished. If it all gets too much, think of those American news reports about Black Friday, and may that be your impetus to leave.

It was relesed during E3 but not actualy part of E3. But it IS the intro cinematic ftw. And thats the coolest character i have seen so far in there CG trailers.
Nice shots. I've heard some rumors that the Smugglers name is Nico Okkar. The basis behind that rumor is T7-O1, the astromech droid briefly seen in the trailer, and a companion character for Jedi in TOR, has had several famous owners including a Captain Nico Okkar. I thought that was interesting.

Dargaville & Districts
A bench press competition to be held in memory of Anthony "Tink" Matich will benefit the Northland Rescue Helicopter.
Tink, 19, was killed in a car crash in Dargaville on November 11 last year.
Brian's Gym and Fitness Centre owner Brian Froggatt says Tink was at the gym most days and the bench press was his favourite lift.
"He was a real inspiration to the other young guys in the gym," he says.
"He encouraged them to make really good progress and they still are in his name."
The Tink Matich Memorial Bench Press Contest will take place on February 9. Tink's parents are donating a trophy to the competition which will become an annual event. It is the first of up to five Northland Power Lifting Association competitions held each year.
Mr Froggatt says there has already been a lot of interest.
"We are looking to have some lifters from around Northland but would really like to drum up local interest," he says.
Entry is $10, lifting starts at 12.30. Registration is 11am, entry forms at the gym.

Tips for Reducing Stress
In this article
We may not be able to control stress, but we can manage it. Here are some stress-management tips that may help you feel better - and less stressed - every day:
- Accept that there are events that you cannot control.
- Keep a positive attitude; rather than defaulting to negatives (''Nothing goes right for me,'' or ''Bad things always happen to me''), give yourself positive messages (''I'm doing my best,'' or ''I'll ask for help'').
- Halt stress in its tracks; if you feel overwhelmed, take a walk or drive in the slow lane to avoid getting angry at other drivers.
- Manage your time. Give yourself time to get things done; set your watch so you have more time to prepare for an event.
- Do things that are pleasurable, like reading or gardening.
- Take 15-20 minutes every day to sit quietly and reflect. Learn and practice relaxation techniques like yoga or deep breathing.
- Exercise regularly by bicycling, walking, hiking, jogging, or working out at the gym. Your body can fight stress better when it is fit.
- Avoid alcohol and recreational drugs. And don't smoke.
- Eat healthy, well-balanced meals.
- Get enough rest and sleep. Your body needs time to recover from stressful events.
- Seek out social support.
Stress. We all live with it each day. But how do you react to daily stress? For some people, life's stressors cause them to become irritable, short-tempered, or unable to concentrate on tasks. Others have interrupted sleep (trouble falling asleep or waking early in the morning with racing thoughts). Then there are those who react by eating junk food -- and a lot of it! (Remember - desserts is stressed spelled backward!) The good news: No matter how busy your schedule, it is possible to manage stress...

RSPB demands ban on deadly pesticides linked to bee decline
Risk from neonicotinoids is 'not acceptable' and EU must limit use to winter crops, says charity
Michael McCarthy
Michael McCarthy, formerly the Independent's longstanding Environment Editor, now its Environment Columnist, is one of Britain's leading writers on the environment and the natural world. He has won a string of awards for his work, including Environment Journalist of the Year (three times) and Specialist Writer of the Year in the British Press Awards in 2001. In 2007 he was awarded the Medal of the RSPB for "Outstanding Services to Conservation," in 2010 he was awarded the Silver Medal of the Zoological Society of London, and in 2011 the Dilys Breeze Medal of the British Trust for Ornithology. In 2009 McCarthy published Say Goodbye To The Cuckoo (John Murray), a study of Britain's declining migrant birds.
Thursday 21 February 2013
Controversial nerve-agent pesticides widely linked to decline in bees around the world should be banned, the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) says today.
Neonicotinoids should no longer be used on crops which attract bees and other pollinating insects, the RSPB says, in a call for the Government to support a proposed EU ban on the three most common neonicotinoid substances.
The intervention of the million-member society comes after a mounting tide of evidence indicating linkages between the use of the chemicals, made by the agribusiness giants Bayer and Syngenta, and collapses in colonies of honey bees and bumblebees.
More than 30 separate scientific studies in the last three years have shown adverse effects on insects from neonicotinoids, which are "systemic" insecticides, meaning they enter every part of the target plants – including the pollen and nectar which bees harvest. In January, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) published a scientific opinion recommending that the three main substances – imidacloprid, clothianidin and thiamethoxam – should not be used on crops attractive to bees. RSPB agricultural policy officer Ellie Crane said yesterday: "We've been reviewing the science for a long time, and scientists are telling us that neonicotinoids might be killing bees.
"Everyone is basically coming to the same conclusion: there's a real and present danger on crops that are attracting bees because these substances are present in the pollen and the nectar. We have come to the conclusion that the risk is not acceptable." The call, formally made today on the blog of the RSPB Conservation Director, Martin Harper, will put significant pressure on the Government to go along with a recommendation from the European Commission, following the EFSA report, that the chemicals should indeed be withdrawn.
So far, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has refused to consider suspending or banning the substances, because it believes that there is no "unequivocal evidence" that they are causing harm.
Defra has now commissioned its own research into the impact of neonicotinoids on bees and the Department is waiting for the results of field studies being carried out by the Food and Environment Research Agency (FERA). These will be assessed by the Government's Advisory Committee on Pesticides, and on that basis, a decision will be taken about whether to support a ban.
The key vote will be in a Brussels meeting of the EU Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health, to consider a draft regulation from the European Commission. This would restrict use of the three neonicotinoids to winter cereals and other crops that are not attractive to bees.

Mantis Desk Light Eats Darkness For Breakfast Off Your Keyboard
The folks at Quirky products are back and this time one of their many members has designed the Mantis, a battery operated light that can stand freely or clip onto the bottom of a monitor to provide enough light to illuminate your keyboard without distracting you from the display.
The Mantis, as the name suggests, features two foldable legs that allow the device to be placed any where you might desire. There are 11 LEDs which can burn at a high or low setting for up to 30 hours using two AA batteries, though it will shut off automatically after 2 hours of use. The ends are rubberized to prevent slipping off surfaces and a separate clip is provided to attached the body to a shelf, monitor, laptop or table top.
As of today, 3/1, 123 of 1500 "commitments" have been made at the price of $26.99. So if you want this product to see the light of day you best provide a preorder.

Deniliquin Sub-brach's first affiliate member
Neville Austin is the first non-veteran to be accepted into the folds of the Deniliquin RSL Sub-branch.
SHAUN CONNOR February 21, 2013 4:15amDeniliquin RSL Sub-branch recruited its first ever affiliate member at its board meeting on Tuesday night last week.
Neville Austin was given the honour of receiving RSL NSW's newest class of membership.
It wasn't until May last year that RSL NSW made it possible for sub-branches to accept affiliate members, but Deniliquin did not start recruiting until this year.
''It isn't compulsory to have affiliate members, it's really up to each sub-branch,'' Deniliquin RSL Sub-branch president Don Ward said.
''But as most of our members are getting on (in age) we thought it would be a good idea (to start recruiting).''
An affiliate member must be at least 18 years old and comply with at least one of the following:
■ A relative of a person (living or deceased) who is or was eligible to be a service or life member of the RSL;
■ A person who has been awarded the certificate of merit or a national or state certificate of appreciation for giving valuable service to the league;
■ A cadet and/or officer of cadets;
■ Any such person deemed by the sub-branch committee to have provided significant service to the sub-branch and who supports the objects of the league.
Mr Ward said his committee was more than happy to accept Mr Austin as an affiliate member.
''Neville is a great person to have as our first affiliate member. He probably meets a number of criteria.''
Affiliate members may serve in any position on a sub-branch committee but cannot be elected as president or vice president.
''We'd be more than happy to talk to other people who are interested in becoming an affiliate member,'' Ward said.

Researchers find surprising trigger of new brain cell growth
February 20, 2015 11:52 am | by Bill Hathaway, Yale Univ. | News | CommentsScientists have discovered that the human brain can produce new neurons, but exactly how those cells are produced and what purpose they serve are not well understood. Now a study by Yale Univ. researchers shows that key developmental factors that control the formation of blood vessels are also necessary for activating brain stem cells.
New insight into fragile protein linked to cancer, autism
February 20, 2015 11:05 am | by American Chemical Society | News | CommentsIn recent years, scientists have found a surprising a connection between some people with autism and certain cancer patients: They have mutations in the same gene, one that codes for a protein critical for normal cellular health. Now scientists have reported in Biochemistry that the defects reduce the activity and stability of the protein. Their findings could someday help lead to new treatments for both sets of patients.

February 20, 2015 10:54 am | by Karl Bates, Duke Univ. | News | CommentsThe size of the human brain expanded dramatically during the course of evolution, imparting us with unique capabilities to use abstract language and do complex math. But how did the human brain get larger than that of our closest living relative, the chimpanzee, if almost all of our genes are the same?
FDA eases access to DNA screening for inherited diseases
February 19, 2015 9:08 pm | by Matthew Perrone, AP Health Writer, Associated Press | News | CommentsFederal health officials are easing access to DNA tests used to screen parents for devastating genetic disorders that can be passed on to their children. The surprise announcement offers a path forward for Google-backed genetic testing firm 23andMe, which previously clashed with regulators over its direct-to-consumer technology.
Epigenomics of Alzheimer's disease progression
February 18, 2015 9:50 am | by Anne Trafton, MIT News Office | News | CommentsOur susceptibility to disease depends both on the genes that we inherit from our parents and on our lifetime experiences. These two components—nature and nurture—seem to affect very different processes in the context of Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study published in Nature.
Voltage tester for beating cardiac cells
February 18, 2015 9:36 am | by ETH Zurich | News | CommentsElectrical impulses play an important role in cells of the human body. For example, neurons use these impulses to transmit information along their branches and the body also uses them to control the contraction of muscles. The impulses are generated when special channel proteins open in the outer envelope of the cells, allowing charged molecules (ions) to enter or exit the cell. These proteins are referred to as ion channels.
New insights into 3-D genome organization, genetic variability
February 18, 2015 8:03 am | by Heather Buschman, Univ. of California, San Diego | News | CommentsWhile genomics is the study of all of the genes in a cell or organism, epigenomics is the study of all the genomic add-ons and changes that influence gene expression but aren't encoded in the DNA sequence. A variety of new epigenomic information is now available in a collection of studies published in Nature by the National Institutes of Health Roadmap Epigenomics Program.
Molecular inhibitor breaks cycle that leads to Alzheimer's
February 17, 2015 11:02 am | by Tom Kirk, Univ. of Cambridge | News | CommentsA molecule that can block the progress of Alzheimer's disease at a crucial stage in its development has been identified by researchers in a new study, raising the prospect that more such molecules may now be found. The report shows that a molecular chaperone can play the role of an "inhibitor" part-way through the molecular process that's thought to cause Alzheimer's.
Scientists shed light on controversial theory of protein structure
February 13, 2015 8:54 am | by Univ. of Bristol | News | CommentsA team of chemists, biochemists and mathematicians at the Univ. of Bristol have published a paper which explores how protein structures are stabilized. There are many forces that hold together the 3-D, functional structures of proteins. Despite considerable effort, understanding of these forces is still quite rudimentary.
Bacterial armor holds clues for self-assembling nanostructures
February 13, 2015 8:35 am | by Lynn Yarris, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory | News | CommentsImagine thousands of copies of a single protein organizing into a coat of chainmail armor that protects the wearer from harsh and ever-changing environmental conditions. That is the case for many microorganisms. In a new study, researchers with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have uncovered key details in this natural process that can be used for the self-assembly of nanomaterials into complex 2- and 3-D structures.
Shedding light on structure of key cellular "gatekeeper"
February 13, 2015 8:22 am | by Jon Nalick, Caltech | News | CommentsFacing a challenge akin to solving a 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle while blindfolded, and without touching the pieces, many structural biochemists thought it would be impossible to determine the atomic structure of a massive cellular machine called the nuclear pore complex, which is vital for cell survival. But after 10 years of attacking the problem, a team recently solved almost a third of the puzzle.
Squid Edit Their Gene Code As They Go
February 13, 2015 7:00 am | by American Friends of Tel Aviv Univ. | News | CommentsResearch that explored RNA editing in the Doryteuthis pealieii squid found it to be the first example of an animal that can edit its own genetic makeup on-the-fly to modify most of its proteins, enabling adjustments to its immediate surroundings.
Engineers put the "squeeze" on human stem cells
February 10, 2015 2:10 pm | by Ioana Patringenaru, Univ. of California, San Diego | News | CommentsAfter using optical tweezers to squeeze a tiny bead attached to the outside of a human stem cell, researchers now know how mechanical forces can trigger a key signaling pathway in the cells. The squeeze helps to release calcium ions stored inside the cells and opens up channels in the cell membrane that allow the ions to flow into the cells, according to the study led by Univ. of California, San Diego bioengineer Yingxiao Wang.
DNA "cage" could improve nanopore technology
February 10, 2015 10:51 am | by Kevin Stacey, Brown Univ. | News | CommentsDespite having a diameter tens of thousands of times smaller than a human hair, nanopores could be the next big thing in DNA sequencing. By zipping DNA molecules through these tiny holes, scientists hope to one day read off genetic sequences in the blink of an eye. Now, researchers from Brown Univ. have taken the potential of nanopore technology one step further.
Controlling genes with light
February 9, 2015 11:57 am | by Ken Kingery, Duke Univ. | News | CommentsDuke Univ. researchers have devised a method to activate genes in any specific location or pattern in a lab dish with the flip of a light switch by crossing a bacterium's viral defense system with a flower's response to sunlight. With the ability to use light to activate genes in specific locations, researchers can better study genes' functions.
Forcing wounds to close

This research was published in Nature Communications.
What autism can teach us about brain cancer
February 9, 2015 9:34 am | by Catherine Kolf, Johns Hopkins Univ. | News | CommentsApplying lessons learned from autism to brain cancer, researchers at The Johns Hopkins Univ. have discovered why elevated levels of the protein NHE9 add to the lethality of the most common and aggressive form of brain cancer, glioblastoma. Their discovery suggests that drugs designed to target NHE9 could help to successfully fight the deadly disease.
DNA strands on end of chromosomes hint when we will die
February 6, 2015 1:17 pm | by Todd Hollingshead, Brigham Young Univ. | News | CommentsBrigham Young Univ. biologist Jonathan Alder has a startling secret he doesn't freely share: he knows when most of us are going to die. Okay, he doesn't know exactly the day or time, but he has a pretty good idea, thanks to his research on tiny biological clocks attached to our chromosomes. These DNA end caps, called telomeres, are the great predictors of life expectancy: the shorter your telomeres, the shorter your lifespan.
Non-damaging x-ray technique unveils protein complex that uses sunlight to split water
February 6, 2015 10:32 am | by RIKEN | News | CommentsA more accurate view of the structure of the oxygen-evolving complex that splits water during photosynthesis is now in hand thanks to a study involving researchers from the RIKEN SPring-8 Center, Okayama Univ. and the Japan Science and Technology Agency. The new model of natural photosynthesis provides a blueprint for synthesizing water-splitting catalysts that mimic this natural process.
New source of cells for modeling malaria
February 6, 2015 9:40 am | by Anne Trafton, MIT News Office | News | CommentsIn 2008, the World Health Organization announced a global effort to eradicate malaria, which kills about 800,000 people every year. As part of that goal, scientists are trying to develop new drugs that target the malaria parasite during the stage when it infects the human liver, which is crucial because some strains of malaria can lie dormant in the liver for several years before flaring up.
Diamonds could help bring proteins into focus
February 6, 2015 7:40 am | by David L. Chandler, MIT News Office | News | CommentsProteins are the building blocks of all living things, and they exist in virtually unlimited varieties, most of whose highly complex structures have not yet been determined. Those structures could be key to developing new drugs or to understanding basic biological processes. But figuring out the arrangement of atoms in these complicated, folded molecules usually requires getting them to form crystals large enough to be observed in detail.
15-million-year-old mollusk protein found
February 5, 2015 10:33 am | by Robert Hazen, Carnegie Institute | News | CommentsA team of Carnegie Institute scientists have found "beautifully preserved" 15-million-year-old thin protein sheets in fossil shells from southern Maryland. The team collected samples from Calvert Cliffs, along the shoreline of the Chesapeake Bay, a popular fossil collecting area.

FeaturesFrom the moment I met Hilton, he demonstrated to me just what it meant to be serious about serious things. He wasn't dour—anything but with his constant delight in the cultural world's follies—yet he sent a message that some altars were more worth worshipping at than others. Not for Hilton was a Monday morning discussion of the Jets game or the latest indie flick. It was a particular treat to watch him write. He sat in his Eames chair and banged out full paragraphs at a rush on his typewriter. Then a pause and another clatter of keys as the next stage of the argument was settled. He was the classic newspaperman at work. Hilton, however, wasn't describing some local fire or a politician's latest platitude but wrestling with the ideas at the root of our culture—and their enemies.

Quantitative easing: printing money like mad to ward off deflation
In economic circles, there has been a lot of buzz about Quantitative Easing of late. Basically, the U.S. Federal Reserve has lowered interest rates to near zero percent and the fear is that these cuts will not have enough effect on the willingness to lend in order to reflate the U.S. economy. Therefore, the Fed has decided to take more draconian measures, one of which is Quantitative Easing, flooding the economy with money.
Read more ›JPMorgan Chase: Large exposure to real economy downturn
The financial services sector has been the hardest hit sector in the credit crisis so far. Banks with large exposures to mortgage-backed securities like Citigroup, UBS and Merrill Lynch have suffered the most. This is largely because the crisis has been in asset prices — chiefly home prices. However, as credit has become severely restricted, the credit crisis has become a global recession and that means the real economy will be impacted. This spells trouble for JPMorgan Chase.

Read more ›If the Fed were a commercial bank, it might be declared insolvent
Recently, I have written quite a few posts demonstrating the U.S. Federal Reserve has a ballooning balance sheet as it increases its purchases of assets at an unprecedented clip. In fact, that balance sheet had $800 billion in assets just this past August. By year's end, we should expect it to have risen nearly four-fold to $3 trillion. This is a wild experiment without parallel in modern history.
Read more ›Stephen Roach: Americans' abandonment of overconsumption is a good thing
Stephen Roach must feel a certain sense of Schadenfreude because he has been warning since the end of the Technology Bubble that U.S. monetary policy was reckless and would end in a very bad way. The bubble reached heights few anticipated, making Roach seem like a Cassandra for a number of years. However, now that the bubble has burst and his economic predictions have proven right, we would be well advised to listen to him regarding where the global economy is now headed.
Read more ›Marc Faber: I advise every American to hold his gold outside of the United States
Marc Faber is a hard money, old school investor who thinks that the U.S. government is going to reflate in order to avoid depression and that means gold. But, for those of you who don't know economic history, the fact is that this has been tried before, in the Great Depression in the 1930s and the result was that the government had to confiscate Americans' gold. It was Executive Order 6102 signed on 5 April 1933 right after Franklin Roosevelt came to office and it forbade all Americans from owning physical gold assets.

Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor has rebuked the United States for its easy money policies, suggesting it was kicking the can down the road and setting up a greater problem later. It is high time the debate about monetary policy made it to the political arena.
Read more ›US jobless claims down on seasonal adjustments
Unemployment claims declined this week to 529,000 from a reading of 542,000 last week. These are very high numbers — the highest figures in this business cycle. Despite the drop, all of the changes were related to seasonal factors as the unadjusted number was a massive 606,877.

Today the Nationwide released their monthly UK-wide figures on house prices and the numbers were better. House prices fell 0.4% in the last month, bringing the annual fall to 13.9%, down from 14.6% in October.
Nevertheless, this is the 13th month in a row that house prices have fallen in the UK. Obviously, the UK is poised to have a sharp property fall that is worse than in the early 1990s.

Back on November 7th, I posted a story on how Bloomberg News was compelled to sue the Federal Reserve under the Freedom of Information Act in order to find out what type of assets the Federal Reserve was accepting as collateral for loans to banks. Bloomberg has provided the latest update in that saga and it is not good. The Fed continues to stonewall and it seems apparent that it will only reveal how U.S. taxpayer money is being spent if forced to do so by law.

James Montier, a market guru usually known as a permabear has turned bullish of late. In keeping with my bullish sentiments, I have posted his thoughts below according to Bloomberg News.
That said, I should always qualify my 'bullishness.' I still believe we are in a bear market and that equities will go lower on an inflation-adjusted basis. Investing only in index funds is a bull market strategy to be avoided like the plague. However, there are many stocks trading for 3 and 4 times earnings like Valero Energy or Chevron that deserve a look – Montier obviously agrees. This is shaping up to be a value investor's dream.

Plug in through three pin socket to caravan
Likes # 0
Posted December 30, 2012 at 3:36PM
Can anyone tell me if a plug in should work through a three pin electric set up to a caravan (from house mains). It worked fine when I was on a standard 'hardwire' electric to my out house office but now i have converted the electric to a big thick three pin which I understand is used on caravans but it's not working!! Thanks very much

My crystal ball thinks you are talking about a homeplug type internet connection. If so it may be because the cores in most flexible cable are twisted whereas house wiring has parallel cores, this may affect the capacitance and inductance of the cable - just a guess though.

They don't seem to work if you plug into an extension lead - what you appear to have done is effectively made the caravan wiring an extension by having it pluged through a socket
I assume there is some type of electrical safety device (RCD) on the feed to the caravan?

When I use my homeplug on an extension lead I have found it only works if I put it in the extension socket nearest to the cable lead that plugs into mains wall socket.
