If you have celiac-disease, gluten-sensitivity or for some other reason you're not eating gluten—the protein found in wheat, rye and barley—you probably know to steer clear of big, obvious offenders like bread, pasta and baked goods.

But there are also foods that are sometimes made with gluten-containing ingredients that you wouldn't necessarily expect to contain gluten. Here's a list of surprising foods that are not gluten-free—a must-read if you have celiac-disease, are eating gluten-free or cooking for someone who is.
• Bouillon cubes and broths
• Dairy substitutes, such as nondairy creamer
• Rice mixes
Aging is inevitable. Sadly. And there are many variables involved in how long you live. But you can also add years to your life by making smarter food choices. Keep your mind razor-sharp and body finely honed with these 11 anti-aging drinks.
1. Pink Grapefruit Juice for Smoother Skin
Pink grapefruit gets its pink-red hue from lycopene, a carotenoid that'll keep your skin smooth according to a study published in the European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics. Researchers found that of the 20 individuals studied, those who had higher skin concentrations of lycopene had smoother skin. (Find more foods for beautiful skin here.)

When it comes to dieting, who isn't looking to lose weight as quickly as possible? In our quest for a quick fix, we latch on to diet notions that may or may not be true (Can You Safely Lose 10 Pounds in 10 Days?).
Here are 3 diet myths that may be sabotaging your weight-loss efforts.
Weight-Loss Myth: It doesn't matter what time you eat dinner.
Truth: The early-bird special is good for your waistline and your overall health. According to a recent study in Cell Metabolism, mice that eat an early dinner and then fast for 16 hours are slimmer than those who eat the same amount of calories, but snack around the clock. Researchers suspect that the longer lapse between meals allows the...
I think it's a happy coincidence that January is not only national soup month, but also the peak of people's efforts to lose weight. Research shows that soups can help you lose weight: in one study, published in the journal Physiology & Behavior, people consumed the fewest calories on days when they ate soup rather than the same ingredients in solid form. Soup has a high water content, which can help you feel full. Broth-based soups packed with veggies give you the biggest bang for your caloric buck. And, just like salad, soup is a good vehicle for vegetables (the fiber in vegetables also promotes feelings of fullness for few calories). And in a study published in Appetite, people who started lunch with vegetable soup ended up eating 20 percent less than those who skipped the soup.

Academy Awards resources
The Academy Awards are just around the corner, and there are a number of nominated films that can be great teaching tools for educators this year. It looks like it might be a big year for Steven Spielberg in the classroom and on Award night -- his
has been nominated for 12 Oscars, including Best Picture.
With the abundance of media messages in our society, it's important to ensure students are media literate. The Oscars provide a great opportunity to use the year's best films to teach students about media and film literacy -- they can also be an engaging teaching tool that provokes students' interest in a variety of subjects and issues.

Really love thsi body butter. Smells so great and feels luxurious. This body butter has some staying power and yet melts into the skin so perfectly. Love
Age: 30-35
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair, Cool
Hair: Blond, Straight, Fine

This whipped argan oil is a great body butter. Just a tad will go a long way. I find that if you scoop up some, rub in between palms then apply to body this will last a long time. Soaks in quickly without that greasy feeling. Very pleasant scent that lasts all day. No need to use fragrance if you like a very light scent all day. This has been my go to all winter, no dry knees or elbows this year. It will not replace my Body Shop butter which I use as a barrier creme for self tanner, but this body butter triumps Body Shop in regards to how easily it is absorbed into the skin.
This is pricey on its own, so I watch for sale pricing in sets with other Josie Maran products on QVC or HSN...who ever sells this. I did score some holiday sales at Sephora. They were the mini size, but they were on clearance. Great splurge.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Oily, Medium, Neutral
Hair: Brunette, Straight, Medium

I'm not a fan. This stuff smells lovely but I don't like the oily finish. I feel like it never soaks in and leaves my skin greasy looking. I only got a sample of this and I won't be purchasing it. I have other argan products I like but this one just isn't to my liking.
Age: 44-55
Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
Sorry to break this product's perfect record, but I am not a fan. It smells odd. No vanilla and the apricot is so faint it is barely noticeable, but it gives it a slightly bitter smell. Bottom line for me is that I don't like the way it smells, so I won't use it.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Dry, Fair, Warm

Eucerin PLUS Intensive Repair Hand Crème is the best ever serious hand lotion ever created.
With that being said, I like to keep a couple of 'luxury' hand creams around that work nicely and smell great. I use them as special treats because they are more expensive. Those 2 hand lotions are this Josie Maran one and Aveda's Hand Relief.
WHOOPS! The above review is for Josie's Whipped Argan Oil Intensive Hand Cream To Go...
now onto the other WHIPPED ARGAN OIL product I have- the body butter that comes in the tub...
It is so light and airy. Once rubbed in, it feels like a light, dry oil. Not slimey in the least. I ordered this online and was expecting something more creamy and heavy for some reason. I guess I should have used this in the summer. I bought the scent called BLOOM. I think it's supposed to smell like roses. It barely smells of anything which is good, I guess (although I wanted to layer Stella McCartney with it). It is a nice product but I will not be repurchasing because it's $32.
Age: 30-35

Smells soooooo good. Does a lovely job of moisturising. Bit too expensive but it feels luxurious and hey, we're worth it right?

Skin: Combination, Other, Not Sure

Love. Very rich but light. Can use all over - it's fine on my face in a pinch. Expensive! But it's something I often give as a gift because most if us don't splurge that much on a body lotion for ourselves. That said - we should because a little of this goes a very long way and can really whip dry skin into shape - in a lux manner.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Sensitive, Fair-Medium, Cool
Hair: Brunette, Straight, Medium

IMO, the moisturizing power of this product is mediocre.
But friends, you don't buy this product to heal dry, cracked skin. You buy it because it smells edible.
By edible, I don't mean fake vanilla-y perfume with an ambiguous, overly sweet, fruity undertone. I mean the divine scent of vanilla bean and real apricot oil, light and sweet, with the texture of whipped cream.
I rub this stuff on my legs and the smell of it makes me hungry, guys.
I received this as a graduation gift and cannot afford to repurchase but I wish I could.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Acne-prone, Other, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other

DESPITE the insane price for this body butter, I would purchase again. Matter of fact, I just purchased a huge tub off of e-bay, but I know it will last forever...I absolutely love this stuff. The smell is amazing, and the butter just sinks into your skin. I used it for an eczema patch I have on my leg, and it healed it...before it was so itchy and dry and after two days of using this, it's gone. Worth the price. I have another of her body butters that I love also.
Age: 44-55
Skin: Oily, Other, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other

I tried this in the Be Loved/Jasmine scent. It smells light and pretty. The texture is very smooth and buttery. It really does moisturize without being overly greasy. I use this on legs after shaving and my skin is so soft, silky, and smooth! I received this as part of a gift set. As nice as it is, I would never buy this for myself. But that's because I am also happy using Lubriderm. I will say that it's been great to have this during this very long and unseasonably cold winter. If you suffer from very dry skin, or you're a body cream junkie, you might need this.

I had great seats at Barclay's, first row in the upper deck on the side stage. I preferred that to my experiences in the rear orchestra or balconies of Radio City. Up close at Radio City is pretty great, but after it goes to single alphabet seating, I don't really like it.

Food for Thought
Our Fall session is well under way and the children have settled into their new routines. You may hear them at home talking about there is no "can't" at Misty Morning, but there is "try".
Often a child will say, "I can't put my coat on." When we ask them to try two times, most often the child can do the task. The excitement and empowerment on the child's face is magical.
We want children to not be fearful of taking on the challenges of life. In the book "Mind in the Making: The Seven Essential Life Skills Every Child Need" by Ellen Galinsky, she discusses that challenges, even positive ones, can induce stress and our mindset makes the difference.
One researcher, Carol Dewk of Stanford University, has found that children who are willing to take on new challenges have a "growth mindset". They see their abilities as something they can develop.
Other children have a "fixed" mindset and see their intelligence as a fixed trait. Therefore they are reluctant to stretch themselves. Children with a growth mindset do better in school because they are not fearful of that new project or topic presented in class.
How can we encourage a growth mindset in children? By providing them opportunities to be challenged and praising their efforts. "You are working hard!" rather than praising their intelligence such as, "You are so smart."
We can help our children learn to love a challenge no matter how large or small. The right mindset early on will carry them far in all of their endeavors.
Tracy LeFevre is the director of Misty Morning Children's Center located less than a minute from Exit 10 off I-84 in Newtown, CT. Misty Morning Children's Center believes a Children's Center should not only provide for the educational needs of each child but also be a place where each child can find happiness, create memories, and be supported as (s)he advances from one stage of life to the next.

If you are going to be sailing in Boston Harbor then you should look into Courageous Sailing Center. They are a non-profit sailing organization in Charlestown that has a fairly large fleet of boats, including 20 or so Rhodes 19 and a few larger boats. I first learned to sail with them and paid something like $350 for 12 hours of lessons and then unlimited use of their boats for me and my friends for the entire summer (and there are always boats available as long as you reserve the day before). It was the best deal ever...plus the Rhodes 19 are perfect boats for daysailing in the harbor and if you start early in the morning you can make it out to the harbor islands and anchor, swim, and do whatever on the beaches and make it back to the dock before sunset. Plus, to get your overnight kicks they organize a few overnight trips out the islands each summer. If I still lived in Boston I wouldn't buy a boat I would just sail through Courageous...althought I definitely understand the satisfaction of owning your own boat so I don't want to discourage you...just let you know of other options.

PETAÆs Response on Vick
By Ingrid E. Newkirk in the New York Times
The recent post by ōRich in Atlantaö [see that article at the end of this one] regarding PETA and Michael Vick was about as unsportsmanlike and mean-spirited as it gets. How can anyone not recognize that there is a world of difference between painlessly euthanizing animals out of compassion Ś aged, injured, sick, and dying animals whose guardians canÆt afford euthanasia, for instance Ś as PETA does, and forcing dogs to fight to the death, slamming them to the ground, hanging them by the neck from trees, drowning and electrocuting them in swimming pools, and tossing pet dogs into the ring with fighting dogs for ōfun,ö as Mr. Vick admits he did.
In my first year working at a grossly substandard animal shelter in Maryland, I forced myself to go in early to euthanize dogs by holding them in my arms and helping them gently escape an uncaring world without trauma or pain, so as to spare them from being stabbed haphazardly in the general vicinity of their hearts with blunt needles and left to thrash on the floor until they died by the callous people who would arrive later to do the job.
I also publicly blew the whistle on the cruel killings that were taking place there, resulting in the eventual replacement of the shelter workers and the implementation of humane policies, but ōRich in Atlantaö chose not to mention any of this context in his nasty post.
ItÆs easy to point the finger at those of us who are forced to do the ōdirty workö caused by a throwaway societyÆs casual acquisition and breeding of dogs and cats who end up homeless and unwanted, but at PETA, we will never turn our backs on neglected, unloved, and homeless animals Ś even if the best we can offer them is a painless release from a world that doesnÆt have enough heart or homes with room for them. It makes it easy for people to throw stones at us, but we are against all needless killing: for hamburgers, fur collars, dissection, sport hunting ― the works. We work very hard to persuade people to spay and neuter their animals and to commit to a lifetime of care and respect for them. If anyone has a good home, love, and respect to offer, we beg them: Go to a shelter and take one or two animals home. The problem is that few people do that, choosing instead to go to a breeder or a pet shop and not ōfixingö their dogs and cats, which contributes to the high euthanasia rate that animal shelters face.
Every day, PETAÆs fieldworkers help abused and neglected dogs Ś many of them pit bulls nowadays and many of them forced to live their lives on chains heavy enough to tow an 18-wheeler Ś by providing them with food; clean water; lightweight tie-outs; deworming medicine; flea, tick, and fly strike prevention; free veterinary care; and sturdy wooden doghouses stuffed with straw bedding. We have sterilized more than 50,000 dogs and cats at no or very low cost.
What we see is enough to make you lose faith in humanity. One pit bull we gained custody of, named Asia, looked like a skeleton covered with skin when PETA released her from the 15-pound chain she had been kept on for years. Asia suffered from three painful and deadly intestinal obstructions, which prevented her from keeping any food down. She faced an agonizing, lingering death, so our veterinarian recommended euthanasia to end her suffering. We pursued criminal charges against those responsible for her condition, leading to their conviction for cruelty to animals. That is just one of the many cases we see every week.
While the majority of adoptable dogs are never brought through our doors (we refer them to local adoption groups and walk-in animal shelters), I encourage readers to visit Helping Animals.com to see photographs of the miserable conditions of the dogs PETA has housed, rescued, found homes for, or put out of their misery and the cases that we have successfully taken to prosecution, which have ended up banning animal abusers from ever owning or abusing animals again.
Please, if you care about animals, help prevent more of them from being born only to end up chained and left to waste away in peopleÆs back yards, euthanized in animal shelters for lack of a good home, or in the hands of animal abusers like Michael Vick by always having your animals spayed or neutered.
Picking Vick Over PETA
By Rich in Atlanta
HereÆs a hypothetical. You have to give up your beloved family pet, a pit bull terrier, and you have the choice of entrusting it to Ingrid Newkirk, president and founder of PETA, or Michael Vick, trusting that whoever you pick will find the dog a good home. Who do you choose?
IÆll get back to that. I have dogs; I love my dogs. I was angered and disgusted by what Vick did. IÆll never be a fan. However, there is no indication that Vick is a sociopath. If he wanted to torture animals for his enjoyment, there were much simpler paths available to him. Vick was interested in dogfighting, a particularly reprehensible manifestation of machismo, but primarily machismo nonetheless. From the ASPCA Web site in regard to dogfighting: ōThe attraction lies in using the animals as an extension of themselves to fight their battles for them and demonstrate their strength and prowess.ö
What he did to the dogs he did as a part of training them, because thatÆs the way those dogs are trained. He had a complete disregard for the well being or ōfeelingsö of those animals, not a pathological desire to cause them pain. It doesnÆt make the end result any more palatable, but it doesnÆt make him a sociopath either.
If he had run a cockfighting ring, the reaction would not have been as extreme, because most of the general public has never developed a close personal bond with a chicken. It is the choice of animal that we regard as particularly reprehensible, because these are our friends and companions. We canÆt imagine that anyone other than a sociopath could fail to feel empathy for them. And yet many ordinary people, both historically and geographically, do not feel that bond, and regard dogs as nothing more than useful property.
They still eat dogs in China (the government had to direct Beijing restaurants to remove dog from the menu for the Olympics), and presumably they are no more inclined to eat animals they love than we are; they just think of dogs differently. Dogfighting is still legal in Japan (alone among æfirst worldÆ countries) and widely practiced in the third world, if not always legal. It was legal in some states here as late as the early 80s and was not a felony in most until fairly recently.
Humans are not necessarily born with an innate emotional bond to dogs, and it is not a sign of abnormal pathology when some individual lacks that bond and the compassion that it implies. It still leaves Vick as a bad guy, but a different level of bad guy Ś one who can conceivably reform.
In the meantime we have PETA, protector of animal rights and their leader, Ingrid Newkirk, a strange bird to say the least. Newkirk got her start in the animal rights business while working at a shelter in DC. Revolted by the living conditions of the animals there, she decided to do something about it. That something was euthanizing them. When she couldnÆt get the administrators of the shelter to go along with her plans, she just took matters into her own hands: ōIn the end, I would go to work early, before anyone got there, and I would just kill the animals myself. Because I couldnÆt stand to let them go through that. I must have killed a thousand of them, sometimes dozens every day.ö
This (killing as a means of rescue) continues as a common theme of PETA today. I have trouble sorting out exactly what it is that PETA and Newkirk regard as animal rights. I am clear that they donÆt want animals used in any way that might be useful to humans, such as for food or research. Newkirk again:
ōEven if animal research resulted in a cure for AIDS, weÆd be against it.ö
But the right to life does not seem to be an animal right that they put a lot of stock in. PETA as an organization euthanizes a higher percentage of the animals entrusted to them than just about any other animal ōrescueö organization. As high as 90 percent in some years. Some breeds go higher than that.
Newkirk seems to have a particular problem with pit bulls, and recommends that all breeding of them should stop and that pit bulls be euthanized as a matter of course. She says this is because they are more likely to be abused than other breeds, but it is noteworthy that she has been attacked by a pit bull in the past.
Newkirk has a clause in her will that directs that ōģher skin be turned into wallets, her feet into umbrella stands, and her flesh into æNewkirk Nuggets,Æ then grilled on a barbecue,ö presumably as some type of statement.
I find PETAÆs insistence on a brain scan intrusive, illegal and without precedent, but IÆd be willing to go along if Newkirk takes one first.
As to Vick, unless he is much dumber than I think, I believe he is unlikely to ever go anywhere near a dog fight again. It is even possible that he might have learned enough to feel genuine remorse for what heÆs done (though weÆll never really know that). But he has paid his debt and by any definition of equity he deserves another chance. We donÆt have to root for him or like him, but it is the only reasonable course.
As to my hypothetical question? If I delivered my pit bull to Newkirk, I would at least know his fate Ś heÆd be headed out the back door in a plastic bag by the time I drove back home. I couldnÆt be completely sure about Vick, but I think IÆd have to take my chances with him.

It is no great shock but the UN is coming for the Internet.
From the Weekly Standard:
In the middle of the night at a U.N. conference in Dubai, the presiding chairman of the International Telecommunication Union conference surveyed the assembled countries to see whether there was interest in having greater involvement in the U.N. governing the Internet. A majority of countries gave their approval.
With a sufficient majority supporting the U.N. becoming more active in controlling the Internet, the chairman put forth a resolution. The chairman, though, insisted the survey "was not a vote."
The resolution was supported by Cuba, Algeria, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia; the United States opposed it.
The proposed resolution resolves that the secretary general of the U.N. "continue to take the necessary steps for ITU to play an active and constructive role in the multi-stakeholder model of the Internet," according to a draft of the text.
"While it is our understanding that the resolutions made at the WCIT are non-binding, the Secretary-General might treat them as binding, which effectively creates a dangerous mandate for the ITU to continue to hold discussions about internet policy into the future," accessnow.org writes, responding to this proposed text.
The pro-digital freedom blog writes, "Further, although minor in scale compared to the impact that defining internet in the ITRs and giving control of it to member states, as Russia proposed, this resolution problematically opens the door to further debate over internet policymaking within ITU fora, and away from multi-stakeholder bodies. As Access has made clear, the ITU is government-centric, lacks transparency, excludes key stakeholders including civil society, and fails to promote a multi-stakeholder approach to internet governance that was embraced by the world's governments at the 2005 World Summit on Information Society (WSIS). And in a similar vain as this resolution's recognition of the WSIS Outcome Documents and Tunis Agenda before it, future ITU documents will undoubtedly cite to this resolution as approving the ITU as a forum for discussing internet governance and justifying a further expansion of its role."
Isn't that great. The UN does such a great job of raping the innocent they are supposed to be protecting, abusing the helpless and wasting money that is not theirs. The UN did not create the Internet but you can bet that if they have their way, they will destroy it.
"I do need to say that it is with a heavy heart and a sense of missed opportunities that the U.S. must communicate that it is not able to sign the agreement in the current form," Kramer said. (RELATED: U.N. delegates affirm right to freedom of information online)
"Internet policy should not be determined by member states but by citizens, communities, and broader society, and such consultation from the private sector and civil society is paramount," Kramer added. "This has not happened here.". .

Tips for Converting to Kp from Kc - Concept
Jonathan Fong
Jonathan Fong
M.Ed.,San Francisco State Univ.
Jonathan has been teaching since 2000 and currently teaches chemistry at a top-ranked high school in San Francisco.
Here are some tricks and tips for converting Kp from KC. So if you want to get to Kp from Kc, the equation is this. So you have Kp equals Kc times RT to the delta n.
Kp is the equilibrium constant and pressures. So using our example, Kp would have been equal to the pressure of NO2 gas, and that quantity squared,over the pressure of N2O4 gas. Notice how it's pressure, so this deals with pressures in atmospheres.
Kc just slightly different. So I would use brackets [NO2] and then, since there's the coefficient, squared, over [N2O4] that concentration. And this deals with molarity concentrations, so concentration in molarity.
So we want to see what the relationship is and we can actually calculate the difference. So you have Kp, you have Kp. The R since we're dealing with pressure, would be equal to the value of the universal gas constant 0.08206 Liters times atmosphere over moles times Kelvin, mainly because of these. So the atmosphere or the pressure.
Temperature, just like in all gas laws, needs to be in Kelvin and delta n stands for change in moles of gas. So remember, it's gas only, and so products minus reactants. So other things solids, liquids, they don't count. It's only gas.
So let's take a look at our example here. So we have example is N2O4 gas yields 2NO gas. We are given the Kc and we're also given the temperature. So all we do is plug it in. So Kp=Kc, so that's 4.61 times 10 to -3. Then R is 0.08206L.atm/mol.K and then the times and then the temperature needs to be in Kelvins. So 25 plus 273 is 298Kelvin. Then delta n, how many moles?
So we have 2 moles in the products, one mole of gas in the reactants, so 2 minus 1 is 1. So that's to the first part. So you do the math and you calculate Kp. So in this example, Kp is equal to 0.113, so that's our answer.
So some tips and tricks is that when delta n equals 0, that means that Kp will equal Kc. So that happens when basically delta n is 0. So then basically RT is raised to the zero power so that's equal to one. So Kp=Kc and then if you have RT to the 0 power, this part, basically equals 1. So that's the reason why they're the same.
This is one trick to save you a lot of time rather than calculating R and T and then figuring out that that part is equal to 1. If you know that delta n is equal to 0, then Kp equals Kc. Other than that, make sure you use R; 0.08206, use the temperature in Kelvins. And also delta n, that you'll only use the change in moles of gases only.
So hopefully these tricks and tips will help you in converting Kp from Kc.

Annual Winter Trip
Family went on our annual winter trip to the park for a couple of days after Christmas. Surprisingly, the roads were crowded but the streams were clear. The weather was warm on Thursday but still not successful on catching any fish. (If anyone hasnt been to ABrams lately, you need to go and check out the huge beaver dam right above the first bridge.)
On Friday the weather turned nasty and rained and washed out pretty much all of the water. We had no luck in the rain or after the rain and today evrything was high so we didnt even try. But like I said if you havent been to Abrams, then you need to get out there and see the dam. And also I got to the three otters swimming around. Justin |

Limited demand for lentils
Lentils are always trading, but prompt delivery is another story. Exporters report limited global demand. Only Spain is a solid customer. Most buyers are going slowly. India has pretty much stopped buying. Reds are the only lentil that are showing any strength and some of that comes from shipping problems in Australia, currently harvesting.By: John Duvenaud, Agweek
WINNIPEG, Manitoba — Lentils are always trading, but prompt delivery is another story. Exporters report limited global demand. Only Spain is a solid customer. Most buyers are going slowly. India has pretty much stopped buying. Reds are the only lentil that are showing any strength and some of that comes from shipping problems in Australia, currently harvesting.
The country, like most grain exporters, is having logistical constraints, and some buyers are coming to Canada as an alternative. Unfortunately, this new business is generally for prompt shipment, which means most has to be turned away.
There's little upside in lentil markets. India had a good crop and is becoming a less important importer every year. Canada had a big crop — 1.88 million metric tons, mostly good quality. There were 645,000 metric tons of Lairds, 38,000 metric tons of Richleas and 170,000 metric tons of Estons.
Reds are dominant with more than 1 million metric tons produced.
It's conceivable that greens develop a bit of tightness this summer since the supplies are far from overwhelming, but there's no sign yet.
Canary is one of the few crops that hasn't fallen victim to the flood of crops trying to get into the queue. Credit that to farmers who consider canary an asset to be cashed in when, and only when, the market makes it worthwhile.
It's debatable whether the market is asking for canary now. Prices are 22 to 23 cents freight on board, but that's steady to where canary has been through most of the fall. That's a sharp contrast to most crops that have fallen, in cases, to the cheapest in the world.
It's hard to make a case that there's a shortage of canary. The Canadian crop was 118,000 metric tons, well above 2012's 98,000 metric tons. Demand doesn't change much year to year, so if Canada kept the world going last year, we should be able to do the same this year.
Chickpeas trade slowly
Chickpeas, once the shining new star in Saskatchewan, are now just another oversupplied Canadian crop. Trade is ongoing, but there is a line-up of sellers.
The global chickpea market is depressed. India, the world's largest producer and importer, had two great crops in a row, so processors are having trouble exporting. The domestic market is stable.
Most Canadian chickpeas are Kabulis. Farmer delivered prices are 30 cents per pound for 9 millimeters, 20 cents for 8 millimeters and 15 cents for 7 millimeters. Few 10 millimeters are grown.
Some Canadian processors are no bid on chickpeas.
Canola prices remain under pressure from the large 2013 crop. The 2013 to '14 carryout will reach a record, and we anticipate a year-over-year increase in canola acres for 2014. Canola supplies will remain burdensome in the next couple years. U.S. soybean acres are also expected to increase next year at the expense of corn. At this time, there are no problems in South America, and we expect record soybean crops in Argentina and Brazil. China has recently rejected cargoes from the U.S.
Dried distillers grains with solubles will weigh on soybean meal values. Stronger soybean meal prices have been a main factor driving the bean market.
Malt barley
Statistics Canada estimated the Canadian barley crop at 10.2 million metric tons, of which about 4 million is high-quality malt barley. Domestic malting companies have most of their 2013 to '14 requirements covered so domestic demand is basically full. We hear of exporters still looking for farmer commitments for sales through the next four months. It is important that producers sell into this demand because, once the export business is covered, there will be no more homes for 2013 malt barley.
We are concerned that if farmers don't finish their sales at this time, they will be holding malt barley into the 2014 to '15 crop year, and malting companies do not want to use malt barley that has endured a birthday.
Statistics Canada estimated the durum crop at 6.5 million metric tons, which was a surprise to world durum traders. World durum demand is inelastic, which means a small increase in supplies can have huge influence on price. In the case for 2013 to '14 a huge increase in supplies is detrimental to prices. At this time, the world durum market has been lagging the recent slide in milling wheat values. It is important to note this will be the largest Canadian durum carryout in a nonmonopoly environment, and the fundamental structure suggests we could see the durum market drop another $1 per bushel in Western Canada.
The function of the durum market is to encourage demand through lower prices. While North Africa is experiencing dryer conditions, we are forecasting a historically large Canadian export program, but the carryout will still be above the 10-year average. Next spring, the durum market needs to discourage acres. Expect to see durum prices in the elevator system trade below hard red spring values.

Working It Out: When Jobs Are Lost
My brother is coming back home. More than ten years ago he moved to Charlotte, somewhat reluctantly, because the company he worked for left the San Fernando Valley and relocated to North Carolina to cheaper digs. Kris never took to the South -- too slow, too far away from home -- but he had the job and a very comfortable house that he'd paid a ridiculously low price for, an amount that wouldn't get you an outhouse here. Overall it was a good bargain for him, if not a transformative one. A good thing on paper. If he couldn't live happily he could at least live well.
But the company didn't exactly keep up its end of the bargain. The downsizing started several years ago and accelerated during the recession. Last month, pretty much everybody was laid off after management announced yet another move south, this time to Texas. Kris had had enough. He's decided he'd rather be unemployed in L.A. than follow his job yet again to another state he doesn't want to live in. The company did say he'd have a job in Austin, but, unlike the first time, they weren't moving him or anybody else; it would be on his dime. He'd rather spend that dime somewhere else.
Last week a friend around the corner who works in aerospace told me that she'd been laid off, too. This is after 31 years on the job. The layoff is technically an opportunity for employees to reapply for the jobs they're already doing, or for jobs they've never done. There didn't seem to be much inbetween. Laurie says the company is hunkering down for the draconian cuts in the federal budget that, unless Congress reaches some kind of agreement very soon, are scheduled to hit March 1. If they don't hit, people will still lose jobs. Either way, things won't be the same, Laurie says. She was too disgusted to be sentimental about maybe losing a job that afforded her and her two now-grown daughters a decent life and a nice home, one of the nicest in the neighborhood -- pale green with blond wood shutters and a bright red door, spare in an Asian way, tasteful. I think of Laurie as an anchor of the middle-class sensibility that keeps us all assuming that we have slightly more than we do, and that security is something we've more than earned and will get eventually. She keeps me confident when I have no reason to be. I'm hoping for the best.
Just north of us in Inglewood, the workers at Hollywood Park Casino are facing losing their jobs, all 600 of them. Just a quarter of them are unionized. Many of them are older, some have been on the job since the casino opened in '94; they seem not to be what the new management or the city of Inglewood has in mind for the new, upscale, lifestyle-oriented development that is supposed to help fill the entertainment void created by the eventual shuttering of nearby Hollywood Park racetrack (that's been imminent for the last five years). The union workers at the casino have been holding occasional protests for the last month or so, but in the private sector, it seems to make little difference these days whether you belong to a union or not. When a company wants to get rid of you, it does, and there is virtually no hell to pay. Or it is the wrong parties paying all the hell.
The picture in the L.A. Times today (read the story here) of those workers raising their voices and their signs of protest moved me greatly. It also alarmed me. At least one worker built a whole middle-class life -- he bought a house in Crenshaw, not far from Inglewood -- on his job as a minimum-wage porter at the casino. Truly, we all have so much to lose.
I was in Darby Park this morning with the dogs. The south end of it overlooks the practice track for Hollywood Park, and a few horses and jockeys were making rounds, working out. The scene was peaceful and measured, like it always is, with no hint of the big change coming. I took it in, as I've been doing for the last five years, with great appreciation and with the knowledge that this look might be my last. The comforts of home are not what they used to be.

Little Big Dune
Category: Nature
Photo and caption by Court Leve
This image was created while flying in Saline Valley in Death Valley National Park. We started our aerial photo day from Tahoe and made it to the dunes in time for sunset. It's hard to believe but the dunes in this photo are over 600' tall. The scale in the valley is truly awesome and virtually impossible to judge. The valley floor is about 300' above sea level and the peak surrounding are about 12,000'. Mt. Whitney is not far away at over 14,000'. What I like most about this shot is that it's deceiving in size and it plays tricks on your eyes.
Location: Saline Vally/Death Valley

I have had this logitech system a couple of years now! And all of a sudden the Right Rear speaker has stopped working. I have tested the speaker on the Right Front and the speaker works fine.
So the problem must the connection from the Sub and that the signal to the right back speaker is suddenly gone? I have changed the wires as well with no luck. Have tryed to press the "input" + "setting"-key to se the firmware (for a reset or something). But the problem is still there. Is there any other solution to this problem or is the system broken? Any other tests I can do? Or is it something that may be easy to fix myself if I open up the sub? I am testing the whole thing with the "test"-function as well. So there is nothing with the computer or any other software issues. This post has been edited by Akerhage: Sep 7 2012, 11:45 |

"Like our living literary giants Toni Morrison and Thomas Pynchon, Russell Banks is a great writer wrestling with the hidden secrets and explosive realities of this country."
—Cornel West
"Of the many writers working in the great tradition today, one of the best is Russell Banks."
—New York Times
Lost Memory of Skin is a provocative novel of spiritual and moral redemption from Russell Banks, the author of Affliction, Rule of the Bone, Continental Drift, Cloudsplitter, and other acclaimed masterworks of contemporary American fiction. Uncompromising and complex, Lost Memory of Skin is the story of The Kid, a young sex offender recently released from prison and forced to live beneath a South Florida causeway. When The Professor, a man of enormous intellect and appetite, takes The Kid under his wing, his own startling past will cause upheavals in both of their worlds. At once lyrical, witty, and disturbing, Banks's extraordinary novel showcases his abilities as a world-class storyteller as well as his incisive understanding of the dangerous contradictions and hypocrisies of modern American society.
Editorial Review
Amazon Best Books of the Month, October 2011: In Lost Memory of Skin, Russell Banks plays peek-a-boo with the reader lifting each corner just enough to wonder at what may lie underneath. When we meet the Kid, he is grappling with his public status as a convicted sex offender, living under a Florida causeway with other men whom society finds â??both despicable and impossible to remove and thus by most people simply wished out of existence.â?? Enter the Professor, with his genius IQ and massive physical presence, eager to prove that men like the Kid have been shaped by social forces and are capable of change. The pair seem diametrically opposed yet share a â??profound sense of isolation, of difference and solitudeâ?¦,â?? held hostage by their secrets in this morally complex and thought-provoking story of illusions and blurry truths in a novel that that hums with electricity from beginning to end. --Seira WilsonDiscussion Questions

Notes From the Author to the Bookclub
"Banks (The Reserve,2008, etc.) once again explores the plight of the dispossessed, taking a big risk this time by making his protagonist a convicted sex offender. He hedges his bets slightly: The Kid is a 22-year-old who got jailed for showing up at a 14-year-old girl's house with condoms, K-Y jelly, porn and beer after some sexy Internet chat. But Banks makes it clear that there are plenty of actual child molesters and "baby bangers" camped out with the Kid under a Florida causeway—because they're prohibited from living 2,500 feet from any place children under 18 congregate, which is pretty much everywhere. It's less clear whether the author agrees with the Professor, a sociologist specializing in the causes of homelessness, that pedophilia is a response to feelings of powerlessness and a disease of the modern media world that sexualizes children in advertising. Ambiguity rules in Banks' knotty narrative of the Kid's odyssey after police break up the encampment under the causeway (it's an election year) and he loses his job as a busboy. Was the Professor really a government informer back in the 1960s? Are his former bosses trying to kill him, as he claims? Maybe, but it's hard to tell. And Banks doesn't make it easy to like the Kid, addicted to porn since he started watching it on the Internet at age 10 to blot out the sounds of his mother having sex with her various boyfriends, so isolated by his own wounds that other people don't seem very real to him. Though there's plenty of plot, including a hurricane and a dead body fished out of a canal, the slow growth of the Kid's self-knowledge and his empathy for others is the real story, offering the only ray of hope in an otherwise bleak consideration of a broken society and the damaged people it breeds. Intelligent, passionate and powerful, but very stark indeed."--Kirkus ReviewsBook Club Recommendations

How to Wear Tweed
Tweed can often look aged and outdated, but when worn correctly, you can look the epitome of elegance and class. However, there is a time and a place for everything and this is what will be revealed in this article!
1Find your ONE item of tweed. It is best to start off with just the one item of tweed, as it can often be a bit overpowering. A good jacket or a skirt would work nicely, from a company such as Barbour or Dubarry. For more up to date tweed, try brands such as Timothy Foxx, who do items such as tweed shorts.Ad
2Dress appropriately. The right place, the right time. Obviously, you wouldn't wear tweed into London, it simply does not fit with the surroundings. Try going to horse trials, or country shows. Point to Points are also brilliant. You will not stand out here as tweed is like a second skin to those who attend these types of show.
3Love your tweed. It needs good care and attention, so make sure that you care for your tweed, maybe buy a weather resistant spray to protect the material.
4Wear the right shoes. Try a pair of Dubarry boots with your skirt or jacket - it will look gorgeous.AdAd
