This year we are thrilled to announce the most exciting line up yet for our tenth anniversary show. We're also bringing the Sun all the way from Tromsø! Norwegian design is set to light up London like never before.
For a full decade, the annual 100% Norway exhibition has sourced and presented the very best contemporary product and furniture coming out of Norway. This year we are thrilled to announce the best and most exciting line up yet for our tenth anniversary show.
The theme, as decided by 100% Norway's longstanding curators Henrietta Thompson (London) and Benedicte Sunde (Oslo), is '10 x 10'. Celebrating our past and looking forward to the future in equal measure, the exhibition will present 10 designers that represent Norwegian design heritage (many of which have exhibited with 100% Norway in previous years); alongside 10 up and coming designers with an eye firmly on the future. As always, every product in the exhibition is a brand new design, the majority of which are to be launched for the first time at the exhibition.
This inspiring spectrum of designers and makers will see Norway's design greats who have been producing fantastic, iconic products since the 60s and 70s, exhibited next to young talents so fresh some haven't even quite graduated quite yet (although you'd never guess from the quality of their work).
In another first, this September 100% Norway is bringing the Sun to London. All the way from Tromsø in the North of Norway, this spectacular art installation promises to light up East London like never before!
Light and Nature are two overarching themes of the exhibition this year, the inspiration behind many of the products, as well as forming the basis of the look and feel of the show itself, which for the second year is being designed by London based Norwegians, Hunting & Narud.
100% Norway is hosted by the Norwegian Design Council, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Royal Norwegian Embassy in London.
Tent Exhibitions owns and manages Tent London, sister show Super Brands London; and hosts co-located gallery events such as 100% Norway, the Design & Crafts Council of Ireland and Tokyo Designers Week at the Old Truman Brewery.
Bringing together two floors of pure design - 290 companies from 29 countries, 8 gallery shows and 40 super global brands present a vast and diverse range of furniture, lighting and interior products for our 21,000 visitors to feast on.

Light up Tombstone a bomb
Incomplete, Poor Design, Poor Quality, Would Not Light
Was this a gift?:
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
I also ordered a scarecrow wind spinner in an earlier order, and it was incomplete too. I had to supply my own nut and washer to get it going. The tombstone looked like someone pulled the light off and pulled the wires. The plastic was also pulled of the top. I will never order anything from you again online.

There is new genetic evidence about why some people are happier than others. Researchers at McMaster University uncovered evidence that the gene FTO, the major genetic contributor to obesity, is associated with an 8% reduction in the risk of depression. In other words, it's not just an obesity gene but a "happy gene" as well. The research appears in a study published yesterday in the journal Molecular Psychiatry.
"The difference of eight percent is modest and it won't make a big difference in the day-to-day care of patients," says David Meyre, Ph.D., associate professor in clinical epidemiology and biostatistics at the Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine and a Canada research chair in genetic epidemiology. "But, we have discovered a novel molecular basis for depression."
Past family studies on twins and siblings have shown a 40% genetic component in depression. But scientific studies attempting to associate genes with depression have been "surprisingly unsuccessful" and produced no convincing evidence so far, says Zena Samaan, Ph.D., assistant professor, department of psychiatry and behavioral neurosciences at McMaster.
The new discovery challenges the common perception of a reciprocal link between depression and obesity: That obese people become depressed because of their appearance and social and economic discrimination; depressed individuals may lead less active lifestyles and change eating habits to cope with depression that causes them to become obese.
"We set out to follow a different path, starting from the hypothesis that both depression and obesity deal with brain activity. We hypothesized that obesity genes may be linked to depression," Dr. Meyre says.
The team investigated the genetic and psychiatric status of patients enrolled in a study led by the Population Health Research Institute, which analyzed 17,200 DNA samples from participants in 21 countries. In these patients, they found the previously identified obesity predisposing genetic variant in FTO was associated with an 8% reduction in the risk of depression. They confirmed this finding by analyzing the genetic status of patients in three additional large international studies.
Dr. Meyre says the fact the obesity gene's same protective trend on depression was found in four different studies supports their conclusion. It is the "first evidence" that an FTO obesity gene is associated with protection against major depression, independent of its effect on body mass index, he notes.
With more climate-induced droughts and insect infestations on the horizon do you think technologies like CRISPR will change a lot of people's minds about GMOs, including genetically engineered foods?

Today when we think of where inventive contemporary design is manufactured, we often think of Italy. This, however, was not always the case. Wide acceptance of modern design came somewhat later in Italy than elsewhere, perhaps because of the ever-present conservative influence of the palpable Roman classical past and the slow development of the Italian economy in the twentieth century. To be sure, before World War II there were important modern designers in Italy, foremost Gio Ponti, an architect from Milan whose influence spread beyond his native country through two architecture and design magazines he founded, Domus and Stile. And the Fascist regime of Mussolini in the pre-World War II period did embrace modern architecture, unlike the Nazi regime in Germany, which consciously rejected modernism as a source of foreign, moral corruption. It was not, however, until the post-World War II era, when the Italian economy expanded rapidly, that Italian modern design achieved international recognition.
One pivotal event made consumers in the United States aware of the diversity and accomplishments of modern Italian design—the exhibition Italy at Work, which travelled to twelve venues between 1950 and 1954. The exhibition was initiated by the Art Institute of Chicago in partnership with two organizations devoted to the promulgation of Italian design, Handicraft Development Incorporated in the United States and its corresponding institution in Italy, CADMA. Italy at Work included hundreds of objects by more than 150 artisans and manufacturers and featured furniture, ceramics, glass, textiles, metalwork, jewelry, shoes, knit clothing, and industrial design. The exhibition opened at the Brooklyn Museum, and at its conclusion, when the objects were dispersed among the host institutions, the lion's share, more than two hundred items, came to the Museum.
In the second half of the twentieth century, Italy became a center for modern design. Many foreigners went there to study and work at small, adventurous firms that produced high-quality objects.

HoopsHype Taiwan rumors
While acknowledging that the maternal grandmother is still fond of mainland China, where she sponsors a scholarship at her hometown's high school, Lin Chi Chung said that mainland Chinese culture and Taiwanese culture both dictate that Jeremy Lin's identity should be determined by his father's side of the family. "We are a male-dominated society, so while I know there are relatives on the mother's side on the mainland, you should go by the father's side, and that is Taiwanese," he said. Lin Chu remained quiet for the most part during the discussion of her grandson's identity, preferring to discuss his basketball abilities. She said that she was struggling to understand her grandson's basketball games because while Lin's father has been sending her videos of the games for years, she has not tried to watch them until the past few weeks. "My grandson would say, 'Did you see the films?' and I hadn't, but I would tell him I did," she said. New York Times
Taiwan Mobile has decided to release former NBA draft pick Marcus Fizer for his bad attitude, local media reported. Fizer, who played for TM in only one game, told the team his injury flared up and did not practice with the team since then. He asked not to play this week. According to TM head coach Jia Fan, Fizer also demanded extra preferential treatment. Taiwan Hoops
Robert Parish, one of the NBA's 50 greatest players, had an early birthday party at National Taiwan University Saturday. Parish, who will be 58 on Aug. 30, celebrated his birthday along with 10 10-year olds. While blowing out the candles on his cake, the former NBA star expressed the wish that he could "celebrate a few more birthdays." Focus Taiwan
Lin, a Harvard graduate, is in Taiwan for a three-day charity event Aug. 5-7, and is expected to coach young basketball players at two summer camp events. He confirmed he had been approached by both Taiwan and China to play for the upcoming 2011 FIBA Asia Championship in Wuhan, China, and had told China he would not play for them this year. The only thing that is keeping him from joining Taiwan's national team in the September tournament is an injury to his left knee, which makes him unable to run or jump at the moment, he said. Focus Taiwan
A technical consultant from the NBA said Wednesday that the Taiwan men's basketball national team needed to assemble soon to better prepare for two major games in July and September. Several China-based players, including some of the best ones, have not yet been able to return to join the Taiwan team for the past month's training due to their commitments to their clubs in the China Basketball League (CBL). The 18-man national team is gearing up for the William Jones Cup next month, an annual intercontinental event hosted by Taiwan. The team is also scheduled to play in the FIBA Asia Championship in September to try to qualify for the 2012 London Olympics. "That's the first thing that has to happen -- get everybody here that wants to be a part of this team. And I think then and only then are you gonna find out how good they can be," said Bob Hill, a former coach of several NBA teams, including the San Antonio Spurs. Focus Taiwan
Golden State Warriors guard, Jeremy Lin, may be headed to the FIBA Asia Championship this September – with a Taiwanese passport. According to NetEase, Lin has been added to the 24-player training camp roster for the Taiwanese national team. An official announcement was made on Monday by Taiwan Basketball Association chairman, Ting Shou-chung. NiuBBall.com
In addition to Taiwan, who has publicly expressed interest in Lin since the end of the NBA regular season, China has also investigated the feasibility of convincing the former Harvard standout to join the Chinese national team. However, since Chinese law prohibits dual citizenship, the Chinese Basketball Association was quickly refused by the American-born player and his family. NiuBBall.com

As popular as P. G. Wodehouse and his creations, suave manservant Jeeves and first-prize twit Bertie Wooster, have been for almost 100 years, they've apparently never toddled onto a West End stage until -- wait for it! -- now.
Read Whole Story
With two discretionary nights available in London, I asked my favorite expatriot "what's good?" He sent me off to two plays that I very much enjoyed but surely would not have found on my own.
I would like to slight the production, as an actual critic. I could say that some of it is so overwhelming that things are lost. I could say that it's a little long for kids. The fact is the journey down this yellow brick road is as enchanting as any other.
Why, why, has Micky Dolenz -- blessed with one of the great voices in pop music history -- recorded so little all these decades? And what had led him to start taking his recording career seriously at this late date?
In recent decades, movie musicals that began as full-length animation features and original movie musicals have become multi-million dollar stage vehicles drawing audiences into theatres in cities around the world.
Not many musicals with Broadway runs under two months get starry concert performances. But then, Benny Andersson, Tim Rice and Björn Ulvaeus' Chess is no ordinary musical.
Frankly, it's difficult to understand why Elena Roger was cast. Roger unquestionably does not posses the pipes to sing this part. The entire show is built around what should be the fiery performance at its heart, making this Evita very cool indeed.
The Broadway revival of Evita at the Marquis Theater may have star power, but it lacks sizzle.
This production, a zippy revival of the Tim Rice/Andrew Lloyd Webber musical, is at the Neil Simon Theater. Forty years ago, a rock opera was big news on Broadway, and the pop music and camp elements continue to grab the audience's attention.

A significant obstacle to the development and transfer of university technology is the lack of funding for promising discoveries after government-sponsored support ends and before a licensee or venture-capital support is identified and secured. Funding at this stage is essential to bring to market promising technology with potential implications for public benefit. The TAF offers a means to assist the SUNY community by providing funding for select technologies to accelerate their development and commercialization.
The TAF complements SUNY�s efforts to revitalize New York�s economy and lead the Entrepreneurial Century. Business incubators, Centers of Excellence, Centers for Advanced Technology, and other collaborative research ventures populate economic development regions across New York State and are built on the strength of SUNY research. They foster entrepreneurial campus cultures and support students and faculty in moving discoveries and ideas into the marketplace.
New York�s economic future is dependent upon the ability to drive technology and invention to the marketplace, and programs such as the TAF support the work of SUNY faculty to achieve these goals.
Since its launch in 2011, the Technology Accelerator Fund has invested over $1 million to successfully advance the commercial readiness of a number of SUNY-developed innovations, and has catalyzed the investment of an additional $1.2 million from external partners, including federal agencies, industry licensees and angel investors. Please click here to learn more about the impact of SUNY's Technology Accelerator Fund.

'See/Saw' at MOPA: A few questions for the artists
Young photographers share their thoughts on the art of taking pictures
Questions for Audrey Gude, a fourth grade photographer at Albert Einstein Academies
Will you describe your photo that is included in See/Saw for me?
There's roses and a fountain, and well, yeah Andrew [A MOPA instructor] told us to take multiple pictures and set them up right so that it would look like one long picture, and my dad's actually done a panorama of the ocean like that, and it looked pretty cool. So, I decided to do that with roses.
What is it like seeing your work in a fancy museum?
I was really excited and happy to see it, and I felt really proud of myself. My mom said not all kids get to have their art in shows like this, and she is right, so that made me feel proud too.
In your opinion, what is the hardest thing about photography or about taking a good photograph?
Probably choosing the right angle to shoot from because if you mess up, you don't know if you can ever catch that one moment again.
Clearly, you are a talented photographer. What's one thing you could teach people to help them take better pictures?
Try to get a lot of different colors and don't put the subject straight in the center. Get it off side because that makes it more interesting.
Have you ever used a non-digital camera?
No, but I think the old timey pictures were cool because some of them developed instantly. I want to use one of those.
If you have an unlimited budget and could photograph anything you wanted to, what and where would you choose?
I would take a picture of a red rose with dew on it with a drop falling off.
Do you wish there was more art in schools or less?
I'm actually fine with that amount I get now because I am already a good artist. And because too much art in school can make a person not want to do it.
What are your hobbies or interests besides photography?
I actually do piano and kung fu.
Questions for Cassie Li, a ninth grade photographer at Rancho Bernardo High School
Can you describe your photo that is included in "See/Saw" for me?
It's a picture of New York Times Square with cars and buildings in the background.
I took it while I was on a school trip when I was in the eighth grade. As our bus was leaving, my teacher said, "This is your last chance to see New York!" so I decided to capture the moment. When I looked at it, I thought, "Hey this turned out pretty well!"
Can you tell me one thing you learned about photography from MOPA instructors?
I learned how shapes and lines can make photographs more interesting and eye-catching. The buildings in the background of my picture are all lined up rectangles.
Do you think that's what the jurors liked about your picture?
I'm not sure, but not too many people can randomly take a photograph that seems so choreographed.

Sharks Gameday
CORPUS CHRISTI - Opponent: Bossier-Shreveport Battle Wings
Records: Bossier-Shreveport 4-5; Sharks 2-7
When: 7:05 p.m. today
Where: Century Tel Center, Bossier City
Radio: KSIX-AM 1230
The scoop: The Sharks have never beaten the Battle Wings, losing to them in all five meetings, including a 59-14 shellacking earlier this season. Despite having just two wins, the Sharks are still in the playoff race, but those hopes dim with each loss. The Sharks have gotten a big boost with the arrival of rookie receiver Anthony Cook, who has nine touchdowns in just two games. Corpus Christi recently signed Sedale Threatt Jr., as a backup quarterback. Threatt is the son of former NBA sharpshooter Sedale Threatt.

SKorean missionary jailed in North seeks mercy
PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — North Korea on Thursday presented to the media a South Korean Baptist missionary who it says was arrested more than four months ago for allegedly trying to establish underground Christian churches in the country. With officials watching, he said he was sorry for his "anti-state" crimes.
In his first public appearance since his arrest, Kim Jung Wook appealed to North Korean authorities to show him mercy by releasing him, and also claimed he had received assistance from South Korea's intelligence agency.
South Korea has denied any spy links to Kim and on Thursday, it called for his quick release. Relations between North and South Korea have eased recently, with Pyongyang making conciliatory gestures such as allowing reunions between relatives separated since the Korean War. But tensions have remained, particularly over annual U.S.-South Korean military exercises that began this week.
In the past, North Korean authorities have held staged news conferences where detainees are presented before the media to make statements that they later recant. Sometimes, the government presents former defectors who have returned to the country to express contrition for their actions. North Korea has consistently ranked poorly on an index on media freedom produced by Reporters Without Borders.
Kim told reporters Thursday that he was arrested on Oct. 8 after crossing into the North from China, while trying to reach Pyongyang with Bibles, Christian instructional materials and movies.
Kim said he was unsure what punishment he would face. He said he requested the news conference to show his family he is in good health.
Kim said he had met numerous times with South Korean intelligence officials before entering the North from the Chinese border town of Dandong, and claimed he had received thousands of dollars from them for his service. He said he wanted to go into North Korea to establish a series of underground churches to spread Christianity.
"I was thinking of turning North Korea into a religious country, and destroying its present government and political system," Kim said. "I received money from the intelligence services and followed instructions from them, and arranged North Koreans to act as their spies. And I also set up an underground church in China, in Dandong, and got the members to talk and write, for me to collect details about the reality of life in North Korea, and I provided this to the intelligence services."
In November, North Korea's state media said the country had arrested a South Korean spy. South Korea's main spy agency, the National Intelligence Service, denied that and that it has any relations with Kim.
Later Thursday, South Korea urged North Korea to quickly release Kim. "It's hard to understand calling one of our citizens who engages in pure religious activities an anti-state criminal," Unification Ministry spokesman Kim Eui-do told a news conference.
Based largely in Dandong since 2007, Kim helped North Korean defectors get to South Korea via Thailand, Laos and other countries, according to a friend in Seoul, Joo Dongsik, who has shipped shoes, clothing and other items to Kim.

Navigating Basel: From Melting Snowmen to Arty Cocktails
Within the expansive confines of the Miami Beach Convention Center, 260 of the planet's top-drawer galleries set up shop this week to exhibit works by more than 2,000 names. Dealers from five continents showcase everything from bleeding-edge contemporary work to modern masterpieces.
See also: Art Basel Miami Beach 2012 Art Fairs and Gallery Guide | Basel 2012 Map (PDF)
The massive four-day fiesta features upward of $2.5 billion worth of art. As much as $500 million is expected to change hands. Local dealers such as Gary Nader believe a resurgent market could be strong enough to post record-shattering sales.
"Although the economy tanked in 2008, the market for blue-chip artworks has continued rising," Nader says.
If all of that sounds more difficult to navigate than the Drake Passage, don't panic. Whether you have a couple mil to drop on a classic or you're a college student scoping out the scene, a little planning will help you sift the best from Basel's cacophony.
Begin at the fair's epicenter, the Art Galleries sector, where you'll discover works by Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, Marcel Duchamp, Damien Hirst, and Tracey Emin. A traipse through these high-roller booths is as good as a trip through a world-class museum's collection.
Just around the corner in the Art Positions area, 16 upstart galleries each feature a major installation created by one artist. Look for Miami's own Spinello Projects, where Agustina Woodgate's Basel debut, New Landscapes, includes filed-down world maps reshaped into surreal displays.
Inside the Art Kabinett segment, the Alexander Gray Associates booth presents paintings by Jack Whitten, Joan Semmel, and Hugh Steers that depict three decades of American social activism. Also worth a stop is the Paul Kasmin Gallery display, which includes a light installation by Chilean artist Iván Navarro, who currently has a solo show of fluorescent sculptures at the Frost Art Museum.
"We will be exhibiting the series, titled Impenetrables, Iván created specifically for Art Kabinett," says Bethanie Brady, the gallery's director. "Each of the sculptures has a ladder rising from the floor, and inside the individual works, words such as whisper, shout, and call invite a response from the viewer."
Feeling claustrophobic? Step outside to enjoy Basel's sculpture park and nightly plein air video shows.
At Collins Park, Christine Y. Kim, a curator at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, has organized the Art Public sector for the second year in a row, with a lineup corralling works that explore language and speech. Crane your head skyward at 11:45 each morning to see Dave McKenzie's Declaration — a plane flying a banner offering artistic marriage proposals.
After catching Pierre Ardouvin's melting-snowman sculptures, titled Bonhomme de Neige, amble over to Basel's oceanfront installation between 20th and 21st streets, where Cuban collective Los Carpinteros whips up frosty cocktails inside Guiro. Open from 5 p.m. to midnight every evening through December 8, the bar takes the form of a traditional Caribbean percussion instrument made from a gourd. Visitors enjoy a curated program of live music and performances by Mallorcan composer Joan Valent along with their beverages. (Visit absolutartbureau.com.)
You can also bring a lawn chair or a blanket to SoundScape Park to watch video works on the 7,000-square-foot outdoor projection wall of the Frank Gehry-designed New World Center. ABMB's Art Video Nights will spool 60 video and film works by top contemporary names, including Julieta Aranda, Daniel Arsham, Theaster Gates, and Robin Rhode, December 8 and 9 starting at 6 p.m.

Step back into 1952 and showcase the classic chicken salad for a delicious lunch of Coronation nostalgia.
Rub the olive oil all over the chicken. Scatter over the lemon zest and season with the salt and black pepper.
Steam the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through, then set aside to cool.
Melt the butter in a frying pan, add the shallot and chilli and fry for five minutes. Stir in the curry powder and cook for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the tomato purée and cook for a further minute. Add the wine and continue to cook until the volume of the liquid has reduced by half.
Stir in the jam and stock, continue to simmer until the volume of the liquid has reduced by half. Set aside to cool.
Mix the mayonnaise and the crème fraiche in a bowl until well combined, then stir in the curry dressing. Fold in the mango, spring onions, lemon juice and coriander.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Fold this into the mayonnaise mixture. Season with salt, freshly ground black pepper and Tabasco to taste. Serve with a green salad, and dress with the toasted almond flakes.
» Metric Converter
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Other Whites are the best wines to pair with Coronation chicken.

The devastation in Japan caused by last month's earthquake and tsunami and the ongoing radiation threat have opened the eyes and hearts of people from around the world.
Locally, Ellen Swain, pastor of United Methodist Church, decided to help those in need in Japan.
On Saturday, she along with several of her church members and students from the United World College are hosting a Jamboree for Japan. Money raised from the event will go to the United Methodist Committee of Relief to help with food, shelter, medicine and clothing for the people of Japan.

SANTA FE — Public schools can no longer spank or paddle students to discipline them under legislation signed into law Wednesday by Gov. Susana Martinez.
New Mexico joins 30 other states and the District of Columbia in banning corporal punishment in schools, according to the Center for Effective Discipline, a Columbus, Ohio-based group against corporal punishment.
SANTA FE — Adults arrested for any felony in New Mexico must submit to DNA testing under a new state law taking effect in July.
Gov. Susana Martinez signed legislation on Wednesday to expand the DNA tests required under what's known as "Katie's Law." It was named in memory of Kathryn Sepich, a New Mexico State University student murdered in 2003 and whose killer was identified with DNA evidence after he was convicted of another crime.

Think decapitation when zombies come knocking.
''Cut the head off - that's a good start,'' sensei Phil
Davison said.
Mr Davison said he would be demonstrate how to kill a zombie
at the DunDEAD festival at Otago Museum today and tomorrow.
He would use ''science of perception'' to teach how to kill a
zombie horde.
The best weapon to bring to the fight was an attitude to
adapt because if you had a plan, you were as good as dead, Mr
Davison said.
''If you can't cut the head off, maybe you can cut a leg off
and then you can run faster than a zombie can hop.''
DunDEAD spokeswoman Ann Cronin said the inaugural two-day
festival would explore zombie pop culture and brain health.
The festival talks would encourage scientific inquiry, she

A world record attempt in the Octagon tomorrow night of a
zombie thriller haka - similar to the scene at the end of the
movie Boy - was postponed after a Dunedin woman
claimed it could be culturally insensitive.
Ms Cronin said she had been too busy to seek approval from
local Maori so the record attempt was postponed to next year.
A Michael Jackson thriller dance would replace the record
attempt, she said.
Associate Prof Poia Rewi, of Te Tumu: The School of Maori,
Pacific and Indigenous Studies, said the organisers were
right to cancel the record attempt without completing an
''assurance process'' to deem it appropriate.
''That's the safe way to make sure they don't get any
negative kickback,'' Prof Rewi said.
To begin the approval process, Ms Cronin should contact the
Dunedin City Council cultural adviser, he said.

Shrinkage at Walmart
Wednesday, June 18, 2014
Investigative journalist Spencer Woodman reports about Walmart leadership encouraging store management to mask rates of "shrinkage," which is the value of goods stolen/otherwise lost, by manipulating inventory metrics—and thereby profit margins—through an array of improper and possibly illegal techniques. Woodman's article "Former Managers Allege Pervasive Inventory Fraud at Walmart. How Deep Does the Rot Go?" is in The Nation.

My son had an experience as a part time employee of a national drugstore chain. He was called in by security and accused of stealing (hadn't). The goal seemed to be coercing these kids intto signing agreements to make restitution for estimated thefts. The Philadelphia inquirer had previously exposed a similar practice by a convenience store chain. When i threatened to call them, they backed down. My son then resigned
Clearly a cover up for internal thieves. And it is possible that stolen goods purchased by workers to sell for their own benefit may account for "overage."
Often, some of the best workers also prove to be some of the best thieves, who "pay themselves" what they believe they should be paid. It's often a quandary because do you fire some of your best salespeople who are also robbing you at the same time?
Having once been in the retail business I can affirm that just a little bit of pilferage and shoplifting that isn't quickly curtailed can put you out of business soon enough. You have to have eyes like a hawk plus have the ability to confront both shoplifters and workers who are pilfering in a firm but politic way. If you aren't on top of your business at all times, they'll take your eyes out and you won't see it.

A prolapse of a pelvic organ is
sometimes difficult to diagnose.
Pelvic organ prolapse that does not cause symptoms is
often discovered during a routine exam. You may be aware that there is a
problem but be unsure of the exact location or cause. If prolapse is suspected,
your doctor will take your medical history, including your symptoms and your
history of pregnancies and other health problems, and perform a physical exam,
including a
pelvic exam.
Tests that may be done to
find out the nature of a prolapse include:
Doctors use a classification system to determine the level
of an organ's prolapse. Identifying the exact level of prolapse helps guide
decisions about which treatments are most likely to offer long-term success.
One standard
classification uses "stages" of prolapse and is based
on how close the lowest part of the organ is to the opening of your vagina (the

|Hawks optimistic Williams will be ready for camp
|Written by Admin
|Saturday, 09 February 2013 11:40
Williams' surgery was performed on Thursday in Gulf Breeze, Fla., by Dr. James Andrews, leaving about eight months before the start of next season's training camp. The Hawks say they are basing their optimism on the success of other athletes who have had surgery to repair torn anterior cruciate ligaments, including Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson.
Williams tore the ligament in the Hawks' game at Brooklyn on Jan. 18, ending his season.
Williams was the Hawks' third-leading scorer with an average of 14.1 points. He signed with the Hawks as a free agent after averaging a career-best 14.9 points with Philadelphia last season.

It's one of the last places in Dana Point that residents can go to enjoy a quiet view. Nestled on a bluff in Capistrano Beach, more than three acres of undeveloped land has served as a park for locals the past 20 years.
The Capistrano Bay Park and Recreation District purchased the land for $1.9 million in 1992 with the intent to eventually turn it into a park. Dana Point acquired the property when it merged with the district in 1993, but the land has never been developed.
Since then, those who prefer to call themselves Capistrano Beach residents have been waiting for the park they say they were promised. It's a park they'll never get.
The shiny new fence and enforced locked gate are testament to the city's bigger plans for the land at 26351 and 26315 Via Canon, which likely involves several million dollars. But the city isn't talking about how much the land is worth or its intended use.
For locals like Donna Dyke, it's disappointing and frustrating. But it's no surprise. It's another example of what life is like for the stepchild of Dana Point.
Dyke, who's lived in Capo Beach since 1964, said she and other residents have used the land for years as their own park. Residents walk their dogs or camp in the area, she said.
"It's always been left alone to the people of Capistrano Beach," she said. "We considered it our park."
One day new gates went up, blocking access to the land. Dyke said she doesn't think the city gave residents enough notice of its intent to sell or listened to their concerns.
At a Sept. 17 public hearing, Capo Beach resident Carl Iverson expressed his concern about the lack of notice. Although the city has met its open space requirement, he said the children of Capo Beach would benefit from a park there.
Although Capistrano Beach makes up a little more than 20 percent of the city's total area, it only has about 11 percent of the city's park area.
Despite these concerns, the city seems satisfied with its previous attempts to develop the land and its intent to sell it.
Allan Seymour said the city's apparent lack of concern for Capo Beach is like throwing a 4-foot rope to a guy drowning 8 feet away and saying you're meeting halfway.
The longtime Capo Beach resident said it's an attitude that's evidenced not just in the selling of the Via Canon property, but also with the city's handling of other issues, notably short-term vacation rentals.
"I've watched where I live in Capistrano Beach go from a bedroom community of plumbers, teachers and lifeguards to now it's vacation homes for doctors and lawyers," he said.
He said this wouldn't be the first time Capo Beach park land had been taken away. He said the Louise Leyden Park was supposed to be larger, but most of the property was developed into condos.
"Capistrano Beach is a stepchild of Dana Point," Seymour said.
It's a theme that has been echoed repeatedly over the years, as residents have expressed frustration with what they have described as a lack of attention to the specific needs of Capo Beach – most recently with issues such as short-term vacation rentals and the need for improvement to Doheny Village.

Plastic bags now banned too in Malabon City
More News from Nathaniel R. Melican
MANILA, Philippines — Malabon City is expected to say goodbye to plastic bags and Styrofoam packs later in 2013, when an ordinance banning their use as packaging for most products takes effect.
For its first ordinance this year, the Malabon City Council enacted ordinance 01-2013 which regulates the use of plastic bags and Styrofoam for product packaging.
The ordinance prohibits business establishments from using plastic bags for dry goods and Styrofoam containers for food.
Plastic can still be used to package wet goods but only for the primary packaging. Secondary packaging, which could be used to provide support for the primary packaging, should not be made of plastic.
The ordinance also prohibits improper disposal of plastic waste, mandating instead that plastic packaging used for wet materials be rinsed and dried properly before being submitted to material recycling facilities set up in each of the city's barangays.
The ordinance gives a six-month grace period for business establishments to properly comply with the ordinance, during which the Malabon City Environment and Natural Office will not penalize violators. However, businesses are required to adhere to "Plastic-Free Days" every Friday or face penalties.
First-time offenders face a P1,000 fine, a warning and compulsory attendance in a seminar, up to a P5,000 fine and cancellation of their license to operate for one year on the third offense.
Individuals found violating the ordinance will face penalties ranging from a fine of P500 to P1,500, community service and a lecture, depending on the number of offenses made.
The council said it enacted the ordinance as it observed that despite serious efforts to segregate waste materials, plastics still ended up clogging the city's waterways, leading to flooding.
