The first secret to roasting a perfect chicken is to make sure the bird is split. At the restaurant we only roast split chickens (as do most professional Chef's) and the reason for this is, it cuts down on the cooking time and you will always have even cooking. The second secret (and the one you taste) is done just after the bird emerges from the oven and I will go into that in a bit.
When it comes to prepping your bird for the oven the first thing you want to do is massage the bird with some good quality olive oil. Yes, the bird deserves a nice deep-tissue massage -- it's the least you can do since you're going to eat it! Once you have massaged the olive oil all over the bird, it is time to season it. Most restaurants use a simple seasoning of salt, pepper, garlic powder and some dried herbs. Very simple stuff. If you want to get dangerous, massage the bird with Chinese chili oil (this stuff is hot, so be careful).
Quite obviously, the next step is roasting the little fellow. As far as roasting time is concerned, it depends on the size of your chicken. The average bird goes into a 375 degree oven for about 40 minutes (the chicken in the picture is your average size store bought bird).
Once the little corn-peckerer comes out of the oven, you can perform the little secret Chef's prefer to make the best tasting bird. As the chicken is resting on the carving board, brush it with melted butter! Once it is brushed with the butter, let the bird rest about 10 minutes (it's been in a hot oven, it needs a rest).
You are now ready to carve and serve the chicken. You will notice you have a very juicy and tender bird, yet the skin is perfectly crusted. Once you start roasting your chicken this way, you will never go back to your old habits!

Rapping from beyond: Tupac's legacy lives on in a documentary
Death hasn't silenced Tupac Shakur.
Though the multiplatinum rapper died from gunshot wounds in Las Vegas in 1996, six CDs of his original material have been issued since, alongside several compilation albums and a book of poetry.
In "Tupac: Resurrection," a documentary opening Friday, Shakur tells his life story, alternating between rage and joy and proving startlingly prescient about his fate. Culled from hundreds of hours of taped interviews, his narration is like a troubled voice from the grave.
This latest posthumous work helps to transform the way we remember Shakur. At the time of his death, the 25-year-old rap star was a controversial figure who had done jail time for sexual assault and was charged in the shooting of two off-duty police officers. His lyrics upset conservatives and fueled his longstanding beef with the rapper Notorious B.I.G. (who was killed six months after Shakur).
However, Shakur's haunting commentary in "Tupac: Resurrection" presents him less as a dangerous hoodlum than as a misunderstood prophet.
"Tupac was vilified in life but when he died, God gave him what they call an extra portion," says his mother, Afeni Shakur, who is an executive producer on the film and CEO of Amaru Entertainment/Amaru Records, which owns Shakur's unreleased work.
"It's like God put a little paintbrush over him so the vilification stopped," she says. "Tupac didn't go any further down. He just got lifted up."
Shakur's prolific afterlife creates the illusion that he is still in the studio, cranking out the tracks that moved a generation of hip-hop fans. Forbes.com recently named Shakur the eighth highest-earning dead celebrity. He pulled in $12 million between September 2002 and September 2003.
"Today's rappers still have to compete with Tupac," says Mimi Valdes, editor in chief of Vibe magazine. "He's released a new album almost every year, and they are all incredible. It makes you think, 'He is way more talented than we ever got to see. Imagine what he could have done if he had lived.' When people realized that he had all of that material, he got respect. It made him even bigger in death."
"Tupac: Resurrection -- Music From and Inspired by the Motion Picture" features four previously unreleased tracks by Shakur. The album's first single, "Runnin' (Dying to Live)," features verses by Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G. and is produced by Eminem. The song already ranks in the top 20 of Billboard's R&B/hip-hop charts. A companion book for the film will be released by Atria Books.
Shakur's unsolved murder has also been the source of rabid fascination. Sylvester Stallone is writing a film about the deaths of Shakur and Notorious B.I.G., tentatively titled "Rampart Scandal." The "Rocky" star plans to direct the film and play the role of real-life LAPD Detective Russell Poole, who alleged that the LAPD's Rampart division was linked to the murders of the two rappers. Poole was a key source for Nick Broomfield's 2002 investigative documentary "Biggie and Tupac," which explored various theories of the rappers' deaths.
Born Lesane Parish Crooks in New York, Shakur was the son of two Black Panthers. Reared in Maryland, he cultivated his creativity at the Baltimore School of the Arts before he settled in Marin City, Calif. His first professional gig was as a dancer and rapper in the playful rap group Digital Underground.

Mike Zordich had just finished punctuating his coachâ??s first career win by presenting him with the game ball. Bill Oâ??Brien repaid him with a barb.
Oâ??Brien broke the postgame scrum by shouting, â??Way to go, John Cappelletti! I mean Zordich!â?ť
Last week may have been Zordichâ??s only chance to do his impression of Penn Stateâ??s Heisman-winning running back. But heâ??ll take it.
In the summer, the senior fullback was one of the key leaders that held the Nittany Lions together after the NCAA sanctions came down. Last week he stepped in to become the teamâ??s leading rusher in a win over Navy.
It was the first time he had that distinction since his senior season at Cardinal Mooney High School outside in Youngstown, Ohio.
Minutes after Oâ??Brien left the locker room, he joked during his press conference that Zordich had been in his ear all week about his high school days as a top rusher.
â??Oh yeah, absolutely,â?ť Zordich beamed. â??You want to have a role in the offense. I just told him what I could do. Itâ??s something I had done before. So I kept bothering him, kept bothering him.
â??And Iâ??m going to continue to do that if I need to. We just want to win some games.â?ť
Already one of the more vocal and likeable guys on the team, Zordich cemented his place in school history in late July. Along with fellow fifth-year senior Michael Mauti, Zordich talked Oâ??Brien into letting them break the playersâ?? silence to the public and affirm their commitment to Penn State.
So when he got a chance for a more visible role against Navy, his teammates appreciated it as much as he did.
â??Mikeâ??s one of the best leaders on this team,â?ť quarterback Matt McGloin said. â??Heâ??s a great football player and an even better person. Heâ??s worked his tail off, heâ??s paid his dues. I was happy to see him get the bulk of the caries on Saturday.
â??Hopefully (this week) heâ??ll have just as big a hand in another win.â?ť
The rushing load will undoubtedly be shared again on Saturday against Temple. Starting tailback Bill Belton is unlikely to be ready to return from an ankle injury, though backup Derek Day was reportedly in full pads at Wednesdayâ??s practice.
In other words, Zordich could end up back to being primarily a blocker this week. But if Day remains limited, the Lions wonâ??t hesitate to turn back to Zordich and junior Curtis Dukes at tailback.
â??Depending on their status, that could happen,â?ť Zordich said. â??We did a pretty good job handling it this week. Hopefully it continues.â?ť
It was Zordich who saved the Lions in last yearâ??s game against Temple. Trailing 10-7 on the road late in the game, Penn State fumbled the snap on third down, only to have Zordich fall on the loose ball before the Owls could grab it and run out the clock.
Two plays later, Zordich got the call on the goal line, punching it in for the winning touchdown.
Regardless of how things shake out in the backfield this week, Penn State will continue to use Zordich in multiple situations.
â??Heâ??ll have a similar role the rest of the season,â?ť Oâ??Brien said of Zordich on Thursday on his weekly radio show. â??Heâ??s a guy thatâ??s a tough guy. A Penn State guy through and through. He does a lot of things well. Heâ??s one of those guys in that senior class whoâ??s the heart and soul of the team.
â??Heâ??s on punt coverage, on the return team. He does a lot of different things that are helpful in addition to being a fullback and running back. Iâ??ve seen so much improvement in him over the eight or nine months Iâ??ve been with him.â?ť

I am also still very much puzzled by the "Congrats! You've sold a model through your Shapeways Shop emails" subject line. It has nothing to do with sales?

That way, it is much more likely that the attached markup will make it into your monthly payment. Emails of models at the time of sale are subject to cancellation and rejection, therefore you can't sum those up to get an accurate picture of what your payment will be. It reads to me that the "Yipee!" email may be headed to the bit-bucket. I for one like that email, and it's fine with me for it to be only once per day.]]> stonysmith 2012-07-18T13:41:48-00:00 Re: keep it true http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=51532&th=10254#msg_51532 Call me a stickler or a fuddy duddy, but Shapeways have a forum section for site feedback, to which this topic is related and posted in. So no, I'll post here if that's ok. (to my mind there's no need to spread stuff about when it can be focused in the intended area) Here's my suggestion for how I'd like things to work; 1. Yippee! You've sold a model email stays the same, but also includes the full model name and links to the model page as well as the Shop/Sale T&C's. 2. Go back to 'Your model has been shipped' but maybe include some code to differentiate whether I should be expecting the printed model or someone else has their order headed to them. 3. The Order Overview has all of the information except for the model number - the model number should be there too please. To get to 1 & 2 should be simple coding as all of those emails are dynamically produced by code with parameters sucked straight out of whatever database the info come from, I expect 3 is no different.

WASHINGTON (ICIS)--US wholesale prices fell by 0.1% in September from August, the Department of Labor (DOL) said on Tuesday, led by an unusual 1% drop in foods that more than offset a 0.5% gain in energy products.
In its monthly report, the department said that the seasonally adjusted 0.1% decline in its September producer price index (PPI) followed a 0.3% gain in August. There was no change in the July PPI from June.
The 1% drop in producer prices - also known as wholesale prices - for finished food products was the sharpest decline since the 1% decline seen in April this year. The downturn in wholesale foods prices was driven chiefly by a nearly 18% drop in producer prices for vegetables.
After nearly a year of generally declining wholesale prices for energy goods, September saw a 0.5% gain, following the 0.8% advance in August.
Much of the advance in energy products last month was attributed to home heating fuels that have seen increased demand as colder Canadian weather has begun to push south into the US.
The department said that producer prices for home heating oil jumped by 6% in September, and there were less pronounced gains in wholesale prices for residential natural gas.
The so-called core index for producer prices - with food and energy products backed out of the overall total - rose by a narrow 0.1% in September from August, the department's report said.
Part of that slim gain in the core index was a 0.5% increase in wholesale prices for plastic resins and related materials. That September increase followed a 0.3% price bump for resins in August.
In contrast, producer prices for basic organic chemicals fell by 0.3% in September from August, the department said, a downturn that essentially offset the 0.3% gain seen in August.
Economists watch wholesale prices for early warnings of inflation gains at the retail level.
Any hint of sharp increases in consumer-level inflation could trigger restraining action by the Federal Reserve Board in the form of increased interest rates.

Yes, PDP is getting a facelift – please excuse any oddities that crop up while I reboot the site. But in the mean time, I have some fabulous news!
The wonderful folks at Carrick Publishing accepted one of my case files from the Tactical Paranormal Response Unit for a new crime fiction anthology coming out this fall, World Enough and Crime.
"Ghost Protocol," once again features Virgil, the chain-smoking, gun-toting psychic, and this time he's on loan to the FBI. He's got a new partner, the ghost of hacker, and their current mission is a little bit of corporate espionage. Everyone knows the Stoblenski Arms Corporation is dirty, but no one has been able to prove anything. Until now…
Here's a quick snippet from the story:
Purgatory, thought Virgil, is a designated smoking area outside of an office building. All of the unclean souls gathered there, reeking of nicotine, huddled together in a feeble attempt to ward off the elements. They stood there every day, unable to pass through the steel and glass gates until their penance, in the form of a tiny white stick was paid out in a cloud of smoke.
Virgil, in his disguise as 'Algernon P. Stoblenski', was an outcast amongst the damned. He slouched up to the entrance, took a spot to the left of the doors and tapped a cigarette out of its pack. The real Algernon was sleeping off the mickey Virgil had paid a hooker to drop in the man's beer the night before. With any luck he wouldn't make an appearance till long after Virgil was gone.
A few of the other smokers were casting wary glances in his direction. Virgil used his Telepathy to broadcast a mild suggestion that they were seeing Algie sucking down his first cigarette of the day. A slight touch of his Empathic Talent enhanced their natural dislike of the man, (he was a bit of a toad), which made sure no-one would get close enough to see through his disguise.
He hung around outside just long enough to make sure he had plenty of eye witnesses to say that Algie had shown up for work. Then he ground out his cigarette and shoved through the doors into the lobby of Stoblenski Arms Corporation…

Multiplexed networks for embedded systems; CAN, LIN, Flex-Ray, Safe-by-Wire...
Paret, Dominique. Trans. by Roderick Riesco.
SAE International
418 pages
Anti-lock brake systems, automated steering, on-board navigation and even entertainment systems are examples of multiplexed networks in action, and the list of automotive and other major industrial applications of multiplexed networks and embedded systems is growing rapidly. Practitioner Paret gives students and professionals a solid background in a variety of the technology and its devices, including controller area networks (CANs), local interconnect networks (LINs), and emerging buses, including the possibilities for linking them, and how to design fail-safe system basis chips and other gateways. She starts with the CAN bus, describing its protocols, properties and novel features, its physical layer and its medium and implementation, components and applications, and its time-triggered features. She then describes new multiplexed bus concepts, including the LIN, gateways, "safe-by-wire" buses, audio-visual buses, radio-frequency communications and wireless mini-networks.

My new favorite. Made with amethyst, crystals, Japanese seed beads and finished with a vintage button.
very nice - would like to wear that one!
Thanks Shelley!
this is really lovely it is something that I would like to try and create would you mind sharing as how you made it.
kind regards
Hi Caz,
I found the pattern in Beadwork Magazine. it is from Aug 2010 and it is the "best of step by step beads" edition. The pattern is called Crystal Helix by Barbara Falkowitz. I have made this pattern several times now and keep putting my own twist on it. I've changed the size of the beads, and this one I did a criss-cross stitch across the top of the pattern.
Maybe I'm partial (it is my birthstone), but I think this is stunning!!
Thx Jamberrysong! I've had a lot of fun with this pattern. I've mixed the colors, the size of the beads, and the variations in the cross over stitch. Who knew one pattern could create so many different looks!

MEDC: Mich. officials were 'scammed' by embezzler
By AP
The state's top economic development official says a convicted embezzler who requested a $9.1 million business tax credit in Michigan may have forged documents showing he had been offered tax breaks from New York and Delaware.
Michigan Economic Development Corp. CEO Greg Main told a Senate committee Wednesday that officials several times asked RASCO CEO Richard A. Short for additional information as they were considering his tax credit application.
In each case, Short came up with required materials.
Mentioning the documents from Delaware and New York, Main says he doesn't know if the documents were forged. He contends state officials were "scammed."
The 57-year-old Short is being held in the Genesee County Jail. A request for comment was not immediately returned Wednesday.

Magic Johnson, Russell Westbrook, and Derrick Rose were among a group of NBA superstars set to travel to Israel to support a basketball team co-owned by Amare Stoudemire -- but TMZ Sports has learned the trip's been 86'd due to the Gaza conflict. Our sources in the Holy Land tell us the legion of NBA talent -- which also included Robin and Brook Lopez and Hall of Famer Chris Mullin -- was going to attend the opening of a new arena in Jerusalem on September 4. TMZ.com
Do you support the operation? David Blatt: "Absolutely. In my opinion, this war is Israel's most justified war I can remember in recent years. I'm really sorry about what's happening in Gaza, but there's no doubt that we had to act there, so that Israel will have quiet there once and for all, and we can live in peace." Do you feel support for Israel in the US? David Blatt: "There's support, although sometimes it's not enough. In my opinion, though, there's more support this time than before." Globes.co.il
David Blatt: It's not easy for me when I'm constantly thinking about what's happening in Israel. My two older daughters happen to be on their global post-army service tour, my son is overseas playing in in the European Youth Basketball Championship, and my youngest daughter is also out of the country for a few days. They're all returning to Israel, though, and I'm planning on seeing them again at the beginning of August. I had a plane ticket with Delta Airlines, but I changed to El Al Israel Airlines Ltd. (TASE: ELAL) as soon as Delta canceled its flights to Israel." Globes.co.il

Turkish Airlines Euroleague champion Maccabi Electra Tel Aviv brought back one of the dominant pieces in its run to the 2011 Euroleague Championship Game by signing point guard Jeremy Pargo to a two-year deal. Pargo (1.88 meters, 28 years old) arrives from CSKA Moscow, with whom he reached the Final Four in Milan last season, but saw his team fall to Maccabi in the semifinals. He averaged 5 points and 1.4 assists over 27 Euroleague games for CSKA. Pargo enjoyed his best season with Maccabi in 2010-11. He averaged 13 points, 3.5 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 22 games, was the Euroleague MVP of the Month in March 2011 and named to the 2010-11 All-Euroleague Second Team. He helped Maccabi win the Israeli double - league and cup titles - in 2011. Euroleague.net
He recently engaged in a brief, but controversial Twitter tussle about the Israel-Gaza conflict with his friend and former Houston Rockets teammate, Dwight Howard. But the worst of it? Casspi, 26, is standing on the corner of the latest Middle East conflagration, running to bomb shelters when sirens sound and incoming rockets shake his boyhood home in Yavne, a Tel Aviv suburb about 45 miles from the border with Gaza. "Everyone is scared and on edge," Casspi said in a lengthy phone conversation. "My dog (Butch) follows me everywhere, even into the bathroom. I tried to sleep last night, but then the sirens go off, and you can hear when the Iron Dome missiles connect with an incoming rocket. The whole house trembles. My sister and my parents, we just run to the nearest bomb shelter. Believe me, this is just terrible." Sacramento Bee
Howard, who has the same agent as Casspi, appeared to start the mini-controversy with a #FreePalestine tweet. Casspi quickly responded with his own tweets, including one that read, "600 missiles been fired from GAZA by Hamas in last 4 days. NUMBERS DON'T LIE. STOP LYING." Howard quickly retracted his remarks and called his former teammate to apologize. Casspi, who has received his own share of criticism for venting, regrets sharing his thoughts so publicly and acknowledged that his emotions are raw and unfiltered, increasingly so since his return to Israel. Sacramento Bee
"We were talking again today about (how) much different it felt back then," Casspi said. "Dwight (Howard) all the time talked about coming to visit me in Israel. J.T. (Jason Thompson) came over and had a great time. Then, two years ago, Yavne started getting hit a lot. Now we are in the middle of this, and it's so hard to see, it's heartbreaking. Kids dying in their parents' arms? I think of the people in Gaza … they think Jewish people are monsters with three heads. But Hamas is using humans as shields and building tunnels under people's houses. What do we do?" Sacramento Bee
NBA star Amar'e Stoudemire has canceled the basketball camp he was to host in Israel for local youth later this month, citing safety concerns due to the ongoing conflict with Hamas. "We chose to cancel the Amar'e Stoudemire Basketball Academy because we did not want to put any of our campers or coaches in harm's way," Stoudemire said in a statement to Haaretz. "I look forward to hosting a basketball camp in Israel in the future." Haaretz
As Langston Galloway continues to play for the Knicks during NBA Summer League, a source tells RidiculousUpside.com that Galloway also has an offer to play for a team in Israel next season. Ridiculous Upside
A person familiar with the Cleveland Cavaliers' search says the team has contacted Maccabi Tel Aviv coach David Blatt about their coaching job. The highly regarded Blatt coached Russia to a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics. He is one of several candidates to speak with the Cavs, said the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Friday because of the sensitivity of the situation. Blatt has not had a formal interview, the person said. Haaretz

Le Cafe de Turin: Nissart for Seafood
This is one of the most famous establishments in Nice; it has been in town for over a hundred years and sells Fresh Seafood straight from the market.
Typically nicois and located under the arcades of the Place Garibaldi, the restaurant is very unfussy and a great place to go with friends or family. It has the best of every day French cuisine, including top quality food and stressed out waiters !
This is also a meeting place for the few nicois who still speak "Nissart".
If you like Seafood, you will love the Caf? de Turin !
Favorite Dish: Oysters and fries !

- Food and Dining
- Family Travel
Cafe de Turin: Sea food for beginners
In Finland we eat a lot of fish but very little other "water animals". So, as one of my friend who usually does not eat even much fish promised to try sea food, we chose Cafe de Turin's back room table instead of the rather crowded terrasse (as the room was almost empty at 7pm and we did not want to embarras any other restaurant guests). The restaurant is specialized in sea food and it also sells it to the locals on the street at the Place Garibaldi.
The service was very friendly, and our waiter also spoke some English. We told the waiter right away that we know nothing about sea food and got good advice for both ordering and eating the strange things. The experience was interesting, and at some points rather hysterical so I'm really glad there weren't many onlookers. However, we got to taste fresh but cooked oysters, mussels, lobster, two different sea snales and others. There was also bread and some mayonnaise for the crevettes on the table, water and white wine.
Favorite Dish: There were different "try it out" plates. We chose one of those and added separate plates of oysters and mussels. We had our table full. It is also practical as there is something for everybody. E.g. I hated the small black sea snales, but my friend quite liked them. This type of eating takes time so I would not like to do it alone. With good company it is nice to sit around a table and try to get the meat out of the shell... For the locals it was obviously normal to drop in for a plabe of oysters, alone or with a friend.
We were three persons, had our stomachs full, and the whole thing with 1,5 bottles of good white wine cost us 75 euro.
Chez Palmyre: Home cooking for over 80 years
Chez Palmyre has been running in the same place and by the same family for over 80 years. It is rather small, maybe 5 tables for about 20 guests, and it serves only lunch. The restaurant is very simple and the grandma who runs it is very local... (and could not speak English). The place is also rather fully booked. We got in without reservation by chance.
The lunch consists of an entree (there are choises like Salad Nicoise, or Assiette Anglaise), first (meat dish) and second (vegetable dish) plates, and a dessert, all of which you have three choises. The food is simple home cooking and there is definately no fancy French Cuisine portions, but the ingredients are good and the food is done with love. The portions are not big but you get as much good bread as you want if you feel hungrier, and we were happy. The lunch cost 13 euros + wine and coffee (summer 2008).
We loved the atmosphere and the simple food and were quite willing to add this restaurant to our list of "places to be visited again".
Favorite Dish: The food varies each day. The menu is handwritten and in French only - there is one on the door, and an other one for the tables!
My favourite this time was apricot dessert - perfect taste of ripe apricots which were at their best right then. Next time there will be something else.

I just took off the broken piece and replaced it with the brand new piece I got from Partselect.com. The part was like three bucks and shipping was a little over 5. I fixed the bottom shelf for under ten bucks. I didn't think I'd be able to find the part on the net, but a quick google search led me here. My wife was always nagging me to fix it. The duct tape I used just wasn't good enough for her. Now, with partselect.com I made her dream come true! David Bueno-Hill

Nervo: Electric Daisy Carnival London 'Will Be Amazing'
Thursday, May 16, 2013 - 13:01
Australian DJ duo [uuid=dcf5b586-1bd3-4d6c-8cee-9e6a82ee18a4]Electric Daisy Carnival Londonwhich comes to the UK for the first time this summer telling Londoners to "watch out!"
Speaking exclusively to MTV News twin sisters Mim and Liv told us they can't wait to play the dance festival – usually held in the U.S. - which makes it's debut over here on July 20th at London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Featuring a line up of DJs including the likes of Tiesto, Avicii, Steve Angello, Sub Focus, Nero and Porter Robinson, Mim said: "London, Watch out! EDC is coming. It's an incredible festival. It's great that they're moving it over to this side of the pond."
Liv added: "It's just a festival for electronic music so it's got that raver vibe to it. We're so excited to be playing it here. It'll be interesting to see how different from EDC in the States but I think Londoners will give it a good crack and it'll be amazing."

We took the opportunity to ask them about the chart-topping dance act on everyone's lips Daft Punk and their brand new material with Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers:
"I think Daft Punk's current single Get Lucky is a great move," Liv said. "it feels very them and I think its great that they're not following the sound of 'now' so much and they're just doing what they do best and its great that people have embraced it."
Mim added: "It's great for dance music as well because dance music is vast, you've got so many different pockets of it, so they're staying true to themselves and what do you know they're number one!"
The twins also revealed that aside from getting marriage proposals during and after their gigs, they recently got handed a G string…
"A girl just last weekend gave us her G string!" Liv exclaimed.
"That was weird," Mim chimed in, "...and bras, we get a lot of bras. We have to sign bras…sweaty bras!"
Suck it up girls, it's all in a hard days work.
Nervo's latest single Hold On is released on 17th June.

Obama reviews foreign, domestic response to EbolaOctober 13, 2014 6:38 pm | by Jim Kuhnhenn - Associated Press - Associated Press | News | Comments
President Barack Obama urged his top national security and public health officials on Monday to incorporate lessons from the most recent Texas Ebola infection into the U.S.'s response plans to the deadly virus. He also called on the international community to deliver assistance more quickly to the countries of West Africa that are struggling against the disease.
Is the U.S. doing enough to fight Ebola?September 16, 2014 11:46 am | by Lauran Neergaard, The Associated Press | News | Comments
The American strategy on Ebola is two-pronged: step up desperately needed aid to West Africa and, in an unusual step, train U.S. doctors and nurses for volunteer duty in the outbreak zone. At home, the goal is to speed up medical research and put hospitals on alert should an infected traveler arrive.

Imagine a low-cost treatment for a life-threatening infection that could cure up to 90% of patients with minimal side effects, often in a few days.It may sound like a miracle drug, but this cutting-edge treatment is profoundly simple—though somewhat icky: take the stool of healthy patients to cure those with hard-to-treat intestinal infections.
Panel: Flu spray better than shots for young kidsJune 25, 2014 3:23 pm | by Mike Stobbe - AP Medical Writer - Associated Press | News | Comments

Effectiveness prompts Novartis to end drug studyMarch 31, 2014 10:23 am | by The Associated Press | News | Comments
Novartis said it's cutting off late-stage research into a potential chronic heart failure treatment because the drug has proven so effective, sending shares to an all-time high when markets opened Monday.

A recent survey conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests they often face uncertainty in ordering and interpreting clinical laboratory tests, and would welcome better electronic clinical decision support tools.
Study: Biological donors should have access to own biobank dataJanuary 24, 2014 11:54 am | News | Comments
Databanks containing information and biological materials from individuals are a crucial resource for research, but they are currently accessible only to researchers. In a recent paper published in Science, experts say that donors should have unrestricted access to data derived from their own material and that advanced technology means allowing such access is today a question of will rather than feasibility.
FDA says nutrition facts label will get a makeoverJanuary 24, 2014 5:07 am | by Mary Clare Jalonick - Associated Press - Associated Press | News | Comments
After 20 years, the nutrition facts label on the back of food packages is getting a makeover.

Hosted by Francis Rose, each week experts in the federal community discuss the three news stories they think are most important in the world of government.
Federal News Countdown: Top acquisition stories
Friday - 6/15/2012, 5:38pm EDT
Today's guests on the Federal News Countdown:
- Jason Miller, Federal News Radio Executive Editor
- Francis Rose, "In Depth" host
They count down the top acquisition stories of 2012 and highlights some of the stories from the Federal News Radio week-long special report, Inside the World's Biggest Buyer.
Jason's Miller's stories
From Inside the World's Biggest Buyer series:
Suspension and debarments rise amid pressure from Congress
For years, Congress has pressed federal agencies to employ the suspension and debarment process more often to weed out irresponsible contractors. For good or ill, federal statistics strongly suggest agencies are listening.
Top acquisition story of 2012:
OMB gives agencies four months to figure out shared services
The Office of Management and Budget is re-invigorating the Lines of Business initiatives but with a bit of a twist. OMB issued its Shared Services Strategy Wednesday detailing the steps over the next four months agencies must take to begin chipping away at more than $46 billion in duplicative IT investments. The plan focuses on commodity IT, such as email and storage, and emphasizes both governmentwide and intra-agency shared services.
Francis Rose's stories
From Inside the World's Biggest Buyer series:
New OFPP administrator has sights set on workforce, 'buying smarter'
Joe Jordan has led the Office of Federal Procurement Policy for a little more than two weeks. But he's wasting no time setting priorities, which include building up the federal acquisition workforce and "buying smarter."
Top acquisition story of 2012:
Agency CIOs coveted new Digital, Shared Services strategies
The Office of Management and Budget now has released two major strategies in the past month, giving agency chief information officers a host of new deadlines. But a funny thing happened on the way to developing the goals: the CIOs asked for them.

Barrick fined $16m for Pascua-Lama violations
The violations include building some earthworks without prior approval, while failing to build others that were supposed to be in place before other construction began, so that rainfall wouldn't increase the runoff from mineral acids naturally released when rocks are broken. Instead, Barrick's bulldozers went ahead and moved mountaintops in preparation for a projected 25 years of gold and silver production.
The violations also include an "unjustified discharge coming from the acid treatment plant to the Estrecho river" that was "neither declared nor monitored," Barrick acknowledged.
Still, the Diaguita Indians, who live in small towns along rivers that flow down from the mine through an otherwise completely barren Atacama Desert, were feeling powerful on Friday.
"Even though we seem so small, we could beat Barrick, which is a giant," said Osvaldina Guzman Villegas, who lives in Diaguita community of Chipasse Tamaricunga. "And with the help of our ancestors, we're going to beat them."
President Sebastian Pinera's spokeswoman, Cecilia Perez, said the government is "very much in agreement" with the sanctions.
"What should happen is that until they remedy all the requirements of the environmental permit, fix all the issues that the Environmental Superintendent is asking for, and finally until this is decided by the Supreme Court, they cannot keep operating," she said.
The sanctions also were praised by independent mining experts, who noted that the containment structures Barrick failed to build were fundamental to obtaining environmental approval.
"Twenty years ago, maybe nobody would have required these fixes, and perhaps wouldn't even have required the canal to divert rainwater, but today it's necessary, more than anything because there's agriculture down below," said Gustavo Lagos, mining professor at Santiago's Universidad Catolica.
The strong sanctions show the mining industry that Chile's independent environmental regulator intends to use its new enforcement powers, he said: "This sets a tough example and I think it should show other companies, not just in mining but in all industries, that this is becoming serious."
How the ruling might affect the bottom lines of many other international mining companies in Chile also wasn't immediately clear, but Lagos said it sends a good message.
"It shouldn't be forgotten that new environmental institutions were required of Chile as a condition for its entry into the OECD," he said, referring to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, which represents the world's leading economies. "It's a good signal to the world that in Chile there are controls, that there's a new institutionality that is working."
Environmentalists say regulators have been much less demanding on the Argentina side of the project, where mining is regulated at the provincial level. Barrick and other pro-mining groups obtained injunctions to block enforcement of a national glacier protection law passed in 2010 in response to the Pascua-Lama project.
"In Argentina, despite public statements that the house is in order, we are beginning to reveal serious environmental flaws regarding dozens and dozens of glaciers that have been unaccounted for in Barrick's environmental impact studies. The Glacier Law further complicates Pascua-Lama," said Jorge Daniel Taillant, director of the Center for Human Rights and the Environment, which tracks environmental compliance by mining companies.

Moderate party holds edge in final Israeli count
If more than 60 members of parliament express support for one of the candidates, Peres' choice becomes obvious – and efforts by Livni and Netanyahu now are focused on trying to win those endorsements.
The premier-designate will have six weeks to form a coalition and win approval from the new parliament.
Only once has a prime minister-designate failed to form a government. That was Livni, who was picked to succeed Ehud Olmert after he tendered his resignation in September because of multiple corruption investigations. She failed to put together a coalition, forcing Tuesday's election.

Telamon Corporation was recently awarded the Early Head Start grant and will continue to provide those services to an additional 76 children and pregnant women in the county previously served by the Sampson County Partnership for Children, Telamon officials have announced.
"It is critically important that those families who would like to continue receiving Early Head Start Services contact us immediately," Arvelis Byrd, Telamon's N.C. Head Start director, stated.
Telamon's Early Head Start Program will offer a new center-based option in addition to the existing home-based program. The company currently offers comprehensive services through center-based and home-based options to approximately 1,600 children and families across North Carolina, one of a dozen states where it operates Head Start programs.
In Sampson, Telamon currently provides Head Start and Early Head Start services to a funded enrollment of 330 children in a center-based classroom option and 68 Early Head Start pregnant women, infants and toddlers in center and home-based options across the county.
"This grant opportunity will afford our program with the opportunity to expand services to an additional 76 children and expectant families," Byrd said.
A private, non-profit, Telamon was created in 1965 by a group called the "Migrant Project" of the North Carolina Council of Churches in order to provide services to farm workers who came into the state to harvest crops. Funded by a grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity, the organization expanded to provide early childhood, employment and training, as well as housing services, to people in need in 12 states ranging from Michigan to Florida.
In addition to early childhood education and family support services offered through its Early Head Start and Head Start program, Telamon provides services and resources to residents through its Workforce Investment Act (WIA) program and its Migrant Head Start center, St. Martin's.
During the 2010 program year, the Telamon Corporation WIA office in Clinton provided employment and training needs to just under 300 dislocated workers and low-income adults and youth.
Byrd said the company's staff works closely with many local programs, including U Care, Sampson County Cooperative Extension, Sampson County and Clinton City Schools, Sampson County Department of Social Services, Sampson County Health Department, Sampson Community College and the Partnership for Children.
The Early Head Start grant would ensure that service continues locally and expands. It is a valuable program, Byrd attested.
"Our Telamon N.C. Head Start team works to ensure that all children enrolled in the program are school-ready and have the tools to succeed when entering pre-school and kindergarten and that all families are engaged in their children's education," the state director said.
Telamon Corporation's Clinton office can be reached at 910-590-1027 or toll free at 866-437-9067.

GEORGE TOWN: There is an acute shortage of locally-produced flowers to meet the rising demand for Valentine's Day, said suppliers.
For instance, local farmers have difficulty planting roses, a popular flower for the romantics.
"Roses are not highly in demand during normal periods. It is only popular during certain seasons, such as Valentine's Day and wedding anniversaries," said Cameron Highlands' Floriculture Association chairman Lee Peng Fo.
"There are more roses planted in Europe and the United States than in Malaysia, but these flowers are not as popular there as in our country," he said.
"So local florists have no choice but to import them," he said.
G-Ray Florist shop supervisor Rayean Lim said the shortage of flowers had forced suppliers to source for roses and lilies from Kenya, China, India and Sri Lanka.
"The price has increased due to the small supply but we are keeping our prices at about the same as last year," she said, adding that a bouquet of a dozen roses costs between RM100 and RM150.
Ohara Florist Sdn Bhd manager Bryan Chew said: "The weather at Cameron Highlands had not been good, so we have to source roses from India."
Despite the shortage, Chew said his shop had ordered around 10,000 flowers and he was confident this year's sales would be better than last year's.
Kelly Lim of Delight Floral and Gift Centre felt that sales this year was "quite relaxed".
"People seem to still be in the Chinese New Year mood. They're in no rush for Valentine's Day yet." she said.
"We still have roses in our store," said Cynthia Lew of White Florist in Taman Tun Dr Ismail.
Lew said suppliers had increased the price of roses, resulting in a price variation from store to store.
"A bouquet of a dozen roses can cost between RM170 and RM200."

He was-- he so much as stated if they wiped out the Founders, the Jem Hadar would run out of white. He was way off.
With the way the Dominion is set up, it is capable of running with hardly any input from a Founder. At least for a while anyway.
The 'do whatever it takes' to win philosophy has its ups and downs I think.
On the one end, doing things like pushing sentient beings to fight for you is dangerous and the Federation becomes the very thing it is fighting against.
But then again, 'photons be free"?? lol
On the other hand, those principles are going to give in to survival when a few million brutal Jem Hadar soldiers land on the planet.
Its too late then.
Remember that episode where during negotiations, they discovered a planet that could be used to make White for the Jem Hadar. They were running out of it.
Problem solved, keep the planet away from them right? Let them run out of white.
Julian argued that they should
them the planet. Because if they didn't, the Dominion would get desperate and launch an all out assault on the Federation that could cost many lives.
They're at war--that's going to happen anyway. On the one hand it makes sense, on the other it sounds really naive and super pacifist.

America's Farmers Grow Communities
August 13, 2014By Jeremy Garst of Western Boone FFA
Western Boone FFA provides valuable learning experiences for youth interested in the agriculture industry. Through involvement in FFA, students develop the skills to become leaders in their communities. Simply put, today's FFA youth members are the future of the industry. It takes funds to run our program. We are asking you to participate in this opportunity to provide us with some much needed funds.
Farmers in Boone & surrounding Counties have the opportunity to plant the seed that helps grow their local FFA chapters. Through America's Farmers Grow CommunitiesSM, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, farmers can win $2,500 for their favorite community nonprofit.
The program is part of a broad commitment by the Monsanto Fund to invest in farm communities, in order to highlight the important contributions farmers make every day to our society. Farmers can apply online at www.growcommunities.com, or call 1.877.267.3332 to apply by phone. If you participate is this program, Western Boone could be one of the organizations selected to a grant to help cover our annual budget.
Entries for this program must be received between August 1, 2014 and November 30, 2014.
Entrants must be 21 years old or older and actively engaged in farming a minimum of 250 acres of corn, soybeans, and/or cotton; or 40 acres of open field vegetables, or at least 10 acres of tomatoes, peppers, and/or cucumbers grown in protected culture (glasshouse, nethouse, plastic). Entrants are limited to one entry per qualified person (regardless of the form of entry). A farmer is "actively engaged in farming" if he or she performs the work, or hires and actively manages others who do so.
The program is open to all qualifying farmers, and no purchase is necessary in order to enter or win. Farmers who meet the eligibility requirements may enter regardless of previous participation. One winner will be drawn from each of the participating counties, and the Monsanto Fund will announce winning farmers and recipient organizations in January 2014. Last year, farmers in Indiana directed $207,500 to 83 nonprofit organizations.
The Western Boone FFA Chapter would like to invite eligible farmers to participate in this program. If the Western Boone FFA receives this grant, the money will be used to cover the costs of substitute teachers needed in the classroom for when the ag advisor, Mr. Galloway, takes the chapter on field trips as well as cover the other field trip expenses. The Chapter attends contests, activities, and events that happen during the school year. It would also pay the contests and events fees so that any qualified member can attend. The Western Boone FFA Chapter appreciates your support of the America's Farmers Grow CommunitiesSM.

Through the work of Hugh Tornabene http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.anc ... index8.htm I have been able to track down my Great Great Great Grandfather Andrea Naimo (born somewhere around 1820, married to Maria Lo Verde).
He had 3 children and my Great Great Grandmother. She married a Pavone in Palermo, Palermo. But, other than that, I cant find that many Naimos in Palermo, Palermo, Italy. I am wondering if they came from somewhere else and if anyone knows more information on the Naimo name in Italy.
I would love to hear (firstname.lastname@example.com) from anyone doing Naimo work in italy or anywhere else. I have a copy of a quick gedcom of all of the NAIMOs marriages that I could find in Palermo if anyone is doing research or interested.

Journeyman tough guy Brian McGrattan has been claimed off waivers from the Anaheim Ducks, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie. As a result, Zack Stortini has been placed on waivers in hopes of assigning him to the AHL-affiliate Milwaukee Admirals. McGrattan is a former fourth round pick of the Los Angeles Kings but his true claim to fame came in 2004-05 when he spent 551 minutes sitting in the penalty box for the Binghamton Senators, setting a new AHL record.
