With only a week to go before Democratic primary voters choose a candidate for the United States Senate, the incumbent's campaign is beginning to have a Last Days of Pompeii feel to it. In that classic old movie — the original Hollywood disaster flick — ordinary people in the ancient Roman city go about their lives without an inkling about a fact the audience knew before they entered the theater — that their world is about to blow up.
In that same way, we are now watching Arlen Specter campaign for a sixth term in the Senate as if 2010 weren't different from any other campaign he had ever fought. The polls showing Specter now trailing challenger Rep. Joe Sestak among Democrats aren't merely routine bad news for a failing campaign. They are a cataclysm for the senator. Specter's greatest strength in the primary was the sense of inevitability about his victory that backers such as President Obama and Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell have tried to foster. Without it, it's going to be hard to hold the loyalty of the Philadelphia party ward bosses, whom Specter is counting on to manufacture a winning margin. While there is no sign that the state or city party is lessening its efforts on his behalf, these are exactly the kinds of people who don't like going down with a sinking ship and who won't go all-out for a candidate who won't be in a position to do favors for them in the future. Without a massive turnout produced by one of the last viable urban political machines in the country, Specter is sunk. Moreover, Specter's best argument to convince Democrats to back him — that he is a stronger candidate against Republican Pat Toomey in November — is also fading, given that a month ago polls showed Toomey with a substantial lead over either Democrat.
Ironically, the latest of the state's leading newspapers to endorse Specter — the Philadelphia Daily News — seemed to understand that dissatisfaction with incumbents and the corruption of earmark spending that Specter exemplifies made the race "a microcosm of the American political landscape" in which the choice in November will be between "a bellwether for the nation, embodying a shift rightward, or a more moderate staying-of-the-course."
The Daily News makes no secret that it wants the answer to be the latter, but give it credit for creative writing in its endorsement of Specter, in which it characterizes his obvious flip-flops and party switch thusly:
He comes by these changes honestly, as part of a process of finding the truth in issues that resist easy answers. He has been smart and tough enough to survive — and thrive — while resisting easy categorization.
Talk about political spin, this sort of blatantly cynical and deceptive line brings to mind H.L. Mencken's famous (if not altogether fair) characterization of William Jennings Bryan: "If he was sincere, then so was Barnum."
Meanwhile, there are two other interesting developments in the race.
Specter has been taking a beating for his "swift-boat" ads sliming opponent Rep. Joe Sestak for his Navy record. So the Democratic establishment brought out the original "swift-boat" victim — Sen. John Kerry — to endorse Specter. While Kerry gave the usual pro forma endorsement of a fellow member of the Senate Democratic caucus, he pointedly refused to endorse Specter's attack on Sestak or talk candidly about the obvious comparisons between the attacks he suffered and those directed at Sestak. Such an endorsement may hurt more than it helps, since it merely draws more attention to an issue that makes Specter look like a vicious incumbent willing to do or say anything to gain re-election.
Even more unhelpful for Specter is President Obama's nomination of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. As it happens, the 2009 vote to confirm Kagan as solicitor general occurred during the senator's last weeks as a Republican, and he voted against her. This gives Sestak yet another opportunity in the last week of campaigning to hammer Specter as a cynical turncoat. Specter's having to spend time this week dealing with yet more evidence of the insincerity of his conversion to the Democrats is a boost for Sestak.
Taken all together, these developments point to a Specter defeat next week. But while the ending is becoming increasingly clear to the rest of us, we're left wondering whether he understands that these may well be his last days as a politician with a future.

SF View from the Bay – 2 Recipes
On Day 3 of my SF book tour, I visited the vibrant Spencer Christian and beautiful Janelle Wang for a return appearance on their afternoon talk show The View from the Bay. Spencer already loves raw vegan foods, and this visit, we may have won Janelle over to our side with my Jap Chae Korean No-Cook Stir Fry Noodles and Berry Kream Tartlets. (The recipes follow below).
Watch video of my TV appearance here.
It's always fun to be made up by a professional make up artist. Skye said she's been working weeks without one day off. A perfect candidate for the raw vegan diet.
Abbeba kicked off this show with her dehydrated crackers and salsa. I like to remind folks raw dishes like guacamole, salsa, gazpacho, and salads are already popular, so raw foods really aren't that much of a stretch from what we're already eating.
I met this pretty teen last year on my Ani's Raw Food Desserts tour. She seems to have grown a foot or more, and has the coolest parents. Her pops brought her to the Ferry Building for my talk on Saturday, and her mom brought her to the TV station. She's thriving on raw, and is continuing to convert and inspire her friends. What an inspiration.
The 2 recipes I made on air were for my Jap Chae, page 224, and Custard Tartletts, page 267. Jap chae is one of my favorite Korean noodle dishes, and it's traditionally made with rice noodles. This recipe was inspired by my mother, who pointed out how similar kelp noodles are to rice noodles. Mom helped me figure out how to season my noodles with pretty much the same ingredients as the cooked version.
Watch video of my TV appearance here.
JAP CHAE – Korean No-Cook Kelp Noodles with Vegetables
Place the onion and mushrooms in a large mixing bowl and toss with salt or soy sauce until mixed well. Nama Shoyu is a raw unpasturized soy sauce, and Bragg's Liquid Aminos is a live food. Another wheat free soy is tamari, if you prefer that. Set aside for at least 15-20 minutes to marinade and soften. Add the carrot and sesame oil. Mix well. Add the noodles and toss to mix well.
Custard Tartlets
CRUST (food processor):
CASHEW KREAM (blended)
To make crust, add nuts and salt into your food processor, and process into small pieces. Add dates to bind together your batter.
Line tartlet pan with plastic wrap. Press 2 tablespoons of the batter into pan. Remove tartlet crust, and place on plate.
Make kream by blending cashews with vanilla and water until smooth.
Scoop into tartlet crust. Top with fresh berry, and serve.
We're offering a special on raw cashews and kelp noodles this month in celebration of my newest book. For organic ingredients and my favorite kitchen tools, visit my estore at: www.GoSuperLife.com

King County task force to examine future funding for parks
June 27, 2012
NEW — 10 a.m. June 27, 2012
King County Executive Dow Constantine appointed 20 business and community leaders Tuesday to devise future funding plans for King County Parks before the levies supporting the parks system expire next year.
In 2007, voters overwhelmingly approved a pair of six-year levies to support county-run parks and trails. The measures expire Dec. 31, 2013.
Constantine asked the King County Parks Levy Task Force to recommend a funding plan for 2014 and beyond. The group is expected to submit a plan by late September.
"Parks, trails and open space are part of what make King County a great place to live," Constantine said in a statement. "I have asked the task force to map a course that keeps our parks open and continues to build the system for future generations."

May 31, 2011
NEW — 8 a.m. May 31, 2011
The city Resource Conservation Office declared National Bike to Work Day a success in Issaquah.
Cascade Bicycle Club, the largest such organization in the United States, helped put on Puget Sound's F5 Bike to Work Day event May 20.
Issaquah set up a station at state Route 900 and Northwest Sammamish Road to count cyclists, offer bike repairs and hand out snacks. Officials counted 219 cyclists on Bike to Work Day in Issaquah — more than last year but shy of the record 254 from 2008.
Participants met bike commuters coming from as far away as Duvall and headed as far as Kent.
Help tally Issaquah cyclists and pedestrians
September 19, 2010
NEW — 6 a.m. Sept. 19, 2010
The state Department of Transportation and Cascade Bicycle Club need volunteers to help count Issaquah cyclists and pedestrians in early October.
The information is then used to track progress toward a state goal of increasing bicycling and walking, and reducing the number of vehicle miles driven. The count is planned for Oct. 5-7.
The local count is part of the National Documentation Project, a yearly bicycle and pedestrian count and survey effort sponsored by the Institute of Transportation Engineers Pedestrian and Bicycle Council.
Construction begins on state Route 900 trail link
August 10, 2010
The trail connector across Interstate 90 at state Route 900 is about to see the first stages of what is planned to be an eight-month project, city Public Works Engineering Director Bob Brock said.
Construction will build a freestanding structure for a nonmotorized trail from 12th Avenue Northwest to the I-90 off-ramp along the west side of state Route 900. The city of Issaquah has awarded a $4.4 million contract with C.A. Carey Corp. that allows for 180 working days, Brock said.
The connector is meant to allow for a safer path between the East Lake Sammamish Trail and the Issaquah Transit Center. The total price tag for the project is about $6 million.
Members of the community have differing opinions on the value, necessity and safety of the project, however.
Steve Williams, president of the Issaquah Alps Trails Club, said he has concerns about the volume of traffic in the area that pedestrians may now be drawn to. There are five lanes of traffic to cross at the I-90 eastbound exit, and drivers often try to make free right turns. That means they are looking left as they are moving right across a pedestrian walkway, he said. Read more
Rumble strips to be installed on state Route 900
August 3, 2010
Rumble strips are to be installed on state Route 900 from western Issaquah to Tukwila on Aug. 5, according to Mike Murphy, a state Department of Transportation spokesman.
One lane will be alternated around the work zone from 8 p.m. – 5 a.m.
Both shoulder and centerline rumble strips, as well as some patches of guardrail, will be installed from Issaquah near Talus to about 148th Avenue Southeast in Renton.
Rumble strips are grooves in the pavement along the shoulder or centerline that when driven over cause the car to vibrate and alert a driver that he or she is leaving the roadway.
"Typically, they are installed on fairly rural highways where there is no divider or if there is a risk of cars leaving the roadway. State Route 900 fits that," Murphy said.
The number of traffic accidents involving off-the-road or over-the-centerline collisions demonstrates a need on the road as well.
Biking event attracts about 100 riders
June 8, 2010
On Bike to Work Day late last month, about 100 cyclists stopped by the station set up by the city and Cascade Bicycle Club at state Route 900 and Northwest Sammamish Road.
Pacific Bicycle Co. performed light tune-ups and adjustments for riders at the station, and the Lakemont Ladies Cycling Club motivated riders, provided information and sold Cascade Bicycle Club T-shirts.
The club tallied 14,251 riders at Bike to Work Day stations across the region during the May 21 event.
Morning commuters enjoyed clear weather, but rain fouled the afternoon trip. In Issaquah, Bike to Work Day ended with a free barbecue for cyclists at Pickering Barn.

The present invention provides a rowing seat for use in a rowboat. The seat includes a chest and abdomen support designed to provide support and leverage for rowers of rearward facing rowboats. The seat includes a clamp so that it may be removably secured to a rowboat bench. The seat further includes a hinge between the seat and the chest support so that the chest support may be collapsed to a horizontal position when not in use.
1. A seat for a rowboat comprising:
a seat;
a clamp for removably attaching the seat to the bottom of a boat bench;
a hinge member fixedly attached to the front of said seat and constructed for selective movement to a plurality of positions including substantially vertical and substantially horizontal relative to said seat and for fixing the position of said hinge in said positions;
a pole support attached to the hinge member and positioned perpendicular to and extending from the longitudinal axis of said seat so as to allow the rower to straddle said pole when in use; and
a chest pad fixedly attached to the pole support, said chest pad being constructed and arranged so that when said chest pad is positioned vertically relative to said seat, said chest pad supports a rower's chest and abdomen while in use.
2. The seat of
3. The seat of
4. The seat of
Many rowboats are designed to be rearward facing. In rearward facing rowboats, the rower faces rearwardly while rowing through the water. The rower guides the end of the oar in the water from the front of the boat, which is behind the rower, to the back of the boat, which is in front of him. Due to the nature of the oarlock system, the rower is essentially pulling his end of the oars toward his chest. A rower must expend considerable energy in maintaining an upright position to avoid straining back muscles.
In such a pulling motion, a rower does not necessarily need support to the back to provide leverage as the rows. The nature of rowing is that a standard seat with a back support impedes the rower's range of motion and does not provide the desirable leverage. Rather, the rower needs support in the chest and abdominal area to provide the necessary leverage as he pulls the oars towards him.
Stationary rowing machines, commonly found in exercise facilities, mimic the conditions and movements associated with rowing a rowboat. A number of such exercise machines are fitted with structures which support the user's chest as the user goes through the rowing movements, for the reasons outline above. U.S. Pat. No. 5,957,817 to Koenig et al. discloses an exercise machine wherein the user stands on a base 16 and pulls a weighted bar 50 towards his chest. A cushioned pad 24 is provided which restrains forward movement. U.S. Pat. No. 6,264,585 to Beauchamp discloses an exercise machine wherein the user sits on a support 105 and pulls a weighted bar 97 towards his chest. A chest pad 106 is provided to restrain forward movement. Nonetheless, there exists a need for an improved seat for rowboats which would provide support for the rower's chest and abdomen while rowing.
The present invention provides a seat for a rowboat in which a clamp removably attaches the seat to a boat bench. A hinge fixedly attached to the pole support allows seat to be collapsed when not in use. A chest pad is attached to the hinge and is constructed and arranged so that when the chest pad is positioned perpendicular relative to the seat, the chest pad supports a rower's chest and abdomen while in use.
A rowboat 10 is shown in
A seat 12 is attached using clamp 14 and is arranged to rest flat on bench 11. Seat 12 provides a place for the rower to rest while rowing. In the present embodiment, seat 12 is flat plastic member constructed of thermoplastics, such as polyethylene polypropylene etc., or elastomers such as polyurethane. It is to be understood that seat 12 could be made of wood, plastic, or metal, could be padded, or could be molded into various shapes to satisfy comfort and aesthetic requirements. A hinge 15 is mounted to the front of seat 12. Hinge 15 has a first arm 28 (not shown) which is fixed to the underside of seat 12. Hinge 15 has a second arm 29 which is fixed to a pole support 16. Hinge 15 is oriented so that in a vertical position 22 pole support 16 is maintained in an upright position for use. Hinge 15 may be oriented in a horizontal position (not shown) so that pole support 16 collapses out of the rower's way when chest support 13 is not in use. Hinge 15 includes a locking mechanism 24. Locking mechanism 24 allows hinge 15 to be locked into vertical position 22 while in use.
Pole support 16 supports a chest support 13. As shown in

I am having some problems with using mootools (latest version) with the latest version of Telerik Controls. We develop a purely web based application for tour operators, and mootools has been giving us a lot of errors lately.
I was just wondering if someone is having issues as well, and if someone from Telerik could jump in on the discussion and recommend either MooTools or jQuery for my application.

Hello, not Telerik here. Anyway, I've been using jQuery and telerik controls successfully in some web apps.
It seems that jQuery is fast becoming standard javascript framework for AJAX. Also, jQuery is included in telerik script resources, here is more info: http://blogs.telerik.com/atanaskorchev/posts/08-11-06/asp_net_ajax_controls_and_jquery.aspx
Good luck.

Hi Arni,
We have more experience with jQuery and have done a lot of integration already. We usually recommend and feel more comfortable with jQuery (jQuery is now included in Telerik scripts as well) but we will also help you with any MooTools integration if you choose to use MooTools. Let us know of any specific problems you have faced and we will look into them.
All the best,
the Telerik team

LEGO City Undercover today launches across Europe, and Nintendo have announced plans to distribute unlock codes for the game through their Wii U Facebook and Twitter accounts from next week.
These will allow players to expand upon the disguises available to Chase McCain, ensuring that he's able to remain incognito during missions. Such costumes will range from a footballer, pop star, pharaoh and minotaur.
Alongside this, Nintendo will also provide two vehicles to unlock, joining the 110 already available within the Wii U exclusive. These are available at Vehicle Call-in Points around LEGO City, and see Chase pursue his investigation by land, sea or air.
We really enjoyed the game, writing within our review: "It's the endless wit and charm that makes this Wii U exclusive what it is, and we certainly hope that with such a well-laid foundation in place, Nintendo will seek to invest a few more LEGO Bricks to build upon it in future."
Alex Seedhouse+ Alex's early adoration for Nintendo began with a Yellow Game Boy and a copy of Donkey Kong Land. This developed over the years, later peaking when he hid in his room to play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time one Christmas. Nowadays, his enthusiasm is shared through Nintendo Insider, a place in which he can document his thoughts regarding the big N.

text: MANKATO (TEC News) -- A spokesperson for the Mankato Fire Department this morning says they found no signs of an accelerant used to start Saturday's fire inside a Mankato apartment building. Lt. Glen Cansler say while the "ignition source" remains "undetermined", they discovered that a bag of "miscellanous debris" had been lit on fire in the Homestead Drive apartment building's entry way. Investigators have, however, ruled the fire an arson. Damage was minor, estimated at $1,500. There was no structural damage to the building, according to Cansler. There was minor smoke damage extendingup a staircast to the second floor. A fire alarm syster, automatically closing fire door and quick notificaiton prevented the fire from spreading and allowed firefighters to quickly qxtinguish it. Anyone with information is asked to contact public safety-fire staff at 507-387-8577.

Don't Get Distracted about DinnerBy
That's Archbishop Lori's advice in response to criticism of Cardinal Dolan for inviting Barack Obama to the Alfred E. Smith dinner, in an interview with me. This is not an honorary forum — it is not Barack Obama delivering the commencement address at Notre Dame (which I have always been critical of), for instance, as I've heard it compared in recent days. It's an opportunity to highlight the work of the Church — and specifically the children's and health-care-related charities President Obama's policies are putting in jeopardy — in front of him.
It's worth remember, by the way, especially given the president was in Denver yesterday claiming he worked with Catholic universities and hospitals on the HHS contraception, sterilization, abortion-inducing-drug mandate and everything's dandy now, that the Catholic Health Association has rejected the so-called accommodation and Notre Dame is suing the Department of Health and Human Services to protect its religious liberty.
Mitt Romney will also be at the Smith dinner and as has been noted here, he's running with the opportunity to educate and on religious freedom this administration's detrimental politics himself. (My two cents here on his new ad.)
The last person I saw defend the dinner invite got more than a few negative responses. But I'm with Archbishop Lori. Few have been clearer on matters of faith and civic responsibility and fundamental principles as Cardinal Dolan. And do remember he is a pastor. If I decided never to invite Democrats to dinner — even as their platform is what it is and this White House is doing what they are doing — that wouldn't exactly be Christian, would it?
Be clear and Christian. That's what Cardinal Dolan models, it seems to me, including here.
There are times when this kind of invite could confuse people. But given the context of these last months, how outspoken Cardinal Dolan in particular has been, along with Cardinal Wuerl and Archbishop Lori and Chaput and Gomez … standing with the bishop of every diocese in the U.S. … this is different than other years.
Agree? Disagree?

Imagine yourself back in 1961. Kennedy is President and the leading board member of USAID (the UN nonprofit agency which helps refugees). Now, USAID has a fund-raiser banquet in Switzerland and invites Mao Tse-Tungt and Khrushchev. The President will be there along with many communists and free thinkers from every nation of the world. All there to roast each other and have a laugh and a nice dinner with a cigar afterwards. It was confirmed by the White house press secretary, and everyone there is perplexed asking the question "Why are all the VFW's and the families and survivors of WW2 and the Korean War soldiers so upset? This is not an American dinner held in American, it has more than just Americans invited and after all, it is a night of jokes and fun. We are doing this as a fund raiser for the poor refugees. What is the big deal, let us show everyone in the world that we all love one another with Christian love because that is what it is all about. because "It gives us an opportunity to act as Christians, and show some love to our adversaries, and even those whose policies we consider to be immoral and oppressive." yeah right!
Like a previous commenter said, this is not even 1,000 miles within a close case.
Obama is attempting to make the Church heel to his imperial will. Do not doubt for a moment he would crush her underfoot and scatter her remains to the four winds if given half a chance. He is not a repentant sinner, but a ravenous wolf who would devour the flock. The Cardinal is ordained to protect and defend his flock from such wolves–and instead, he opens up the doors, gives him a place of honor, and offers him wine, a juicy steak, and photo ops! Just grand!
Cardinal Dolan has lost all credibility–unless he rescinds this invitation.
Hard to believe KJL could miss this one by such a wide margin. This is an easy one. Catholic conservatives and many moderates are equal parts confused and demoralized. Practically speaking, it does not matter what Cardinal Dolan's intent is or was. There is a fairly simple application of several Catholic doctrines at play here, and the Cardinal's decision seems to fail in each area IMHO.
First, in terms of creation or causation of scandal, CCC 2284 – 2287(especially 2285) makes it clear that anything that someone does that might lead others to mortal sin does injury to their soul, and is therefore scandalous. And the burden on those in authority is even greater. Common sense leads one to the inescapable conclusion that many tens of thousands of heterodox Catholics will use the invitation and appearance at the Al Smith dinner to justify a vote for Obama. A vote for the most anti-Catholic, anti-life, anti-family/marriage and anti-religious freedom president in the history of the Republic is objectively and directly sinful, as it represents conscious cooperation with sin.
Building on that same point, simply inviting someone who has shown such a chilling and unambiguous disdain for life (by their actions and not just rhetoric), has an even more direct appearance of cooperation with sin. It appears to be saying – "We find your policies and leadership of the culture of death to be despicable, but what the hey, lets get together and yuk it up over dinner and drinks" It is as ludicrous as it appears.
Finally, the Church has a very well established and thoughtful doctrine regarding double effect that directly applies to this case. There are four tests and all must be satisfied for an action to be permissible that can or will have a negative or sinful effect. We already see the tremendous negative reaction and pain from Catholics regarding this decision. This was certainly not the intended effect, but should have easily been foreseen, which is one of the four tests. No matter how narrowly or broadly you consider the Cardinal's decision, it fails the test(s) regarding double effect and is therefore a decision that should be reversed.
Kathryn should know better.
This action by Cdl. Dolan really takes the wind out of the sails of those of us who have been backing him up on his bold stands against attacks on our religious liberty. The message it sends to me is this: "It's OK, what Obama is doing isn't really a big deal. Regardless of how things turn out, everything will be honkey-dorey." It makes me wonder why I have put my rear end on the line defending the Church's position with my friends and acquaintances. I'm afraid that's exactly what will happen, too. The HHS mandate will go forward, and life will go on pretty much as normal. Then the next incremental encroachment on our religious liberty will come… then the next… and we will all be like frogs being cooked in a pot where the water temperature is being slowly turned up.
Let us remember a most important dinner that is the cornerstone of our faith in Christ – The Last Supper. Was not Judas at that meal? The betrayor of our Lord? What about Peter, who denied Christ and Christ knew he would do it?
What about St. Paul who was fanatical in his persecution of followers of Christ – yet was transformed and called to follow Christ in a profound way. We never know how God will use our interaction with those around us to His end.
An invitation to this dinner, to me, is a show of charity in the face of opposition.
And I have to ask, does anyone REALLY think the media would have presented a lack of invitation in positive light? No, the media is not our friend in this and would most certainly have used a lack of invitation as an example of hypocrisy.
Nice try Jennifer, but that spin wont work. We all have free will and Peter and Judas had not betrayed Our Lord.
Up and until the time they do they were free to change their minds. Here, the persecution has already begun and Card. Dolan who claimed he was honored by his call to the White House, really, honored? Has already been betrayed and lied to once about the HHS mandate. Poor anology. I noticed none of the scribes or pharasees that Christ called 'vipers'and were responsible for the Our Lord`s death were invited to the last supper. This man
Obama, is already responsible for the deaths of many countless unborn children. Where, for God`s sake is the outrage or the courage to call a viper a viper. Notre Dame was a disgrace. This is even a bigger slap in the face to devout Catholics across the nation.

Take our latest poll! What refreshing food or drink do you crave on a hot summer day?
In December of 2011, Best Food Facts interviewed Connie Diekman, RD, about the overall safety of apple juice. At that time, she said the FDA was reassessing whether the acceptable levels of arsenic in juices needed to be adjusted, following reports of potentially unacceptable levels.
Today, the FDA proposed new regulations for arsenic in apple juice. The proposed "action level" is 10 parts per billion (ppb) for inorganic arsenic in apple juice. This is the same level set by the EPA for arsenic in drinking water.
Recently, Best Food Facts reader Natalie submitted a question about palm oil regarding whether it causes allergic reactions.To answer the question, we reached out to Dr. Stephen Taylor, Professor, Food Science & Technology, University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
Cooking can be simple, but simple mistakes can turn vegetables into a complex disaster. This easy-to-use chart outlines how many minutes to steam, microwave, blanch and boil your favorite veggies.
Does an apple a day REALLY keep the doctor away? Should I choose organic? Is there arsenic in apple juice? Get the facts and meet a fantastic foodie who's crazy for apples and a farmer who makes it her business to grow them.
Have you ever cut into a potato and noticed brown tissue that looks like a small trail or print? What is that brown tissue inside the potato, and is it harmful?
A Best Food Facts reader submitted a question: "I've bought russett potatoes (that's what I use for mashed, baked, etc.), and when I peel them and slice them I've seen what appears to be a small trail or print running through them. Often wondered what this is, and is it harmful?" We spoke with Dr. Rich Novy, Small Grains and Potato Germplasm Research Geneticist from the USDA Agricultural Research Service to answer the question.
Recently, Best Food Facts launched a series of videos about GMOs, which spurred many questions. One question that seemed to be on everyone's mind was the differences between organic and non-organic food. One viewer asked, "Is non-organic food full of chemicals?"
To answer this question, we reached out to Dr. Ruth MacDonald, Chair and Professor of the Department of Food Science & Human Nutrition, Iowa State University.
Wondering how to maximize the life of the food you buy? Check out this handy chart from Lindsay Snow Osborn that incorporates recommendations from the USDA, FDA and others!
An ongoing Loma Linda University research effort seems to suggest just that. Best Food Facts asked Wendy J. Dahl, PhD RD FDC, who teaches in the Food Science and Human Nutrition Department at the University of Florida, about the research.
Dr. Herbert Aldwinckle, professor emeritus at Cornell University's Department of Plant Pathology and Plant-Microbe Biology, has been studying apples for four decades. We spoke with him about all things apples and what's on the horizon – including the development of an apple that won't turn brown.
Recently, The Dr. Oz Show aired an episode that addressed the "Secrets of the Fast Food Industry." We had some questions about the episode, so we reached out to Dr. Sean O'Keefe, a food science professor at Virginia Tech. Dr. O'Keefe originally helped us answer questions on Why Doesn't Fast Food Spoil? Below, Dr. O'Keefe has much to say about the episode and its inaccuracies.
Take our latest poll - How often do you eat fast food?
Have you heard the theory that placing an onion next to your bed will keep you from getting the flu? Are you curious if onions absorb bacteria? Do onions help combat the flu? Will an onion turn black after attracting all of the bacteria? Do onions have powerful antibacterial, antiseptic properties?
We stumbled upon a Facebook post about onions curing the flu, and wondered many of the same questions. We had to find out if it was true, so we reached out to Ruth MacDonald, PhD, RD, Chair and Professor of the Department of Food Science & Human Nutrition at Iowa State University.
Are you concerned about food prices? Last year, we looked at how drought affects food prices, and unfortunately, many parts of the United States are still experiencing drought conditions. On average, Americans spend about 10 percent of their income on food, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But what affects food prices each year? To answer this question, Best Food Facts reached out to Dr. Marc F. Bellemare, Assistant Professor, Sanford School of Public Policy, Duke University.
What do you know about the additives in your food? Particularly, those mysterious ingredients on the label that have us all scratching our heads and wondering "Is this stuff good for me and my family?" Food experts explore whether we should avoid foods with ingredients we cannot pronounce.

All too often, people learn the basics of poker, enjoy a few low stakes games, move up to a higher stakes game, lose everything, then either give up, or delude themselves into thinking that they're missing some big secret.
Poker novices spend a fortune on poker books, videos, and classes promising the "Secrets of the pros" or "An unbeatable poker strategy". Really, the answer to the question "What do you need to become a good poker player?" is simple. There's no secret strategy, no magic poker tips that will turn a beginner into a pro. All you need is a quick mind, and a lot of practice.
Some people grasp the core poker concepts quickly, for others it takes a little longer, but anyone can learn them with time.
Good poker players are able to quickly identify the style of each player at the table. They label each player, for example: "Fish", "Maniac", "Tight", and they can remember those labels - and adjust them where necessary, for the duration of the game.
Good poker players can quickly count outs, assess pot odds, and work out whether a bet is worth making - or how much they need to bet to make the required bet too risky for their opponent to stay in the hand.
These concepts are the foundation of strong poker players. When you're first playing, it can take a long time to work this stuff out. If you're like I was as a beginner, you might need a calculator and a pen and paper when you're first getting started. If you can't reckon things quickly enough to play online poker, why not invest in an offline poker game for the PC or your favourite games console. After a couple of weeks of practice you'll be able to put the calculator to one side and do all your reckoning in your head.
When these poker basics are intuitive to you, you can be confident you're well on the way to becoming a good poker player, and you can look at some more advanced poker strategies.

Iszoloscope is an industrial band from Aylmer, Quebec, Canada, currently based in Montreal, formed in 1999 by CHUO 89.1 FM (the University of Ottawa's radio station) DJs Yann Faussurier and François Bénard, creating heavily processed ambience and bristling noisy beats. Iszoloscope pushes the abstract conceptualization of isolation and its induced altered states of consciousness into a powerful, ominous, and immersive dark sonic aesthetic that can be called its very own, creating a seamless fusion of industrial, electro-acoustic, ambient, rhythmic noise, psy-trance and break-core.

text: /> "It's a killer because we have hundreds of members that pass each year and we can't get them all in," says SAG Awards producer Kathy Connell. The film academy gives its final list of in-memoriam honorees to the producer of the segment just days before the big show. Chuck Workman, who is producing the memorial montage for Sunday's telecast, says he was working with a temporary list until last week. Many of the names made the final cut, he says, but some did not. "It's a constant balance for the academy," says Workman, who has 20 years of experience making film montages for the Oscar show. "They do try their best, but there's only so many spots." Workman says his first step would normally be to choose "some schmaltzy music" to accompany the segment, but this year the music "is coming directly from something they're doing for the show." Workman's task, then, is to find footage and photographs that best represent the 30 or so people in the memorial piece. He looks for images that "they would be proud of, their families would be proud of and the people in the audience would be proud of."

Kim Kardashian gave birth to a (really tiny!) bundle of joy, a baby girl named North West, on June 15. We have yet to see any photographs of the baby emerge, and with good reason: Kim and her dowager/momager, Kris, are no doubt frantically trying to figure out which media entity will pay them the most amount of money for access to the exclusive pics. However, news reports emerged today that shined a whole new light on the suddenly trust-phobic Kim Kardashian. Apparently, she set up a sting in which she texted FAKE pictures of North to a few of her friends in order to find out which of her friends would sell her out the quickest. And well, as TMZ attests, someone took the bait. BUT WHO!?!
Well, truth be told, we have no idea. None whatsoever! However, that's not stopping us from conducting some highly speculative analysis about which of her kohorts (see what we did there?) tried to cash-in on her friendship, and thusly, drew the ire of the entire Kardashian/Jenner clan. In other words, don't expect a Khristmas kard from Kim this year! Check out our gallery of the Top 10 Suspects above.

The party is a huge success, but everyone notices Tami's absence. Ev explains that Tami, too, was up for a PETA campaign and that might be the reason she didn't show. "I have no idea where Tami is," Ev says. "I think she was trying to get PETA to add her to their campaign and she doesn't really rub me like a hater but you know, sometimes women are funny."
Evelyn heads to Shaunie's house after the party and Shaunie fills her in on how Tami went off on her about the "real right or real wrong" business and how they planted negative seeds about her. "She's planted her own seeds," Evelyn says.
"I definitely, 1000% know that we did not plant a bad seed in Tasha's head, so I just think it's all bulls—," Ev says.
Then Shaunie proceeds to do the "slow" Tami hair move, of carefully placing her hair behind her shoulder, "and her jaw always does like this."
"Bottom line is, this is how the negative stuff starts!" Shaunie says. It's kind of funny how meta this whole thing is, because we know in real life how much the women have talked about removing the negativity from the show, and now here hey are addressing it within the show itself.
"I feel like the s—'s gonna hit the fan at some point, definitely between Tami and Shaunie," Evelyn says. "We'll see."

Over the next few weeks we will be highlighting award-winning projects and ideas from this year's Core77 Design Awards 2013. We will be featuring these projects by category, so stay tuned for your favorite categories of design! For full details on the project, jury commenting and more information about the awards program, go to Core77DesignAwards.com.
Project Name: HazMatID Elite Designers: Bresslergroup and Nexus Design LLC
The Smiths Detection HazMatID Elite is a portable chemical identifier used to detect hazardous chemical and biological substances. The product is used by military and civilian first responders to quickly and accurately detect health and safety risks in the field.
The product helps first responders keep people out of harm's way and reduce the social and economic impacts of chemical incidents and attacks via a clear and intuitive design.
- How did you learn that you had been recognized by the jury?
We watched it live!
- What's the latest news or development with your project?
The device has won Appliance Design Excellence in Design Gold and IDSA IDEA Bronze.
- What is one quick anecdote about your project?
The client HazMatID Elite development team were very flexible and open-minded to some of our more novel interaction design ideas—which really allowed us to push the boundaries of designing their next generation user interface beyond what they were used to in the past.
- What was an "a-ha" moment from this project?
Realizing that the thoughtful information architecture, and the functional design of user interfaces for first-responders is hugely important, and in some cases, could be a matter of life or death.

Project Name: Sync Think EYE-SYNC Designers: tool., Inc.
EYE-SYNC is a portable neurodiagnostic device used to identify potential cases of traumatic brain Injury (TBI) / concussion. A set of cameras, electronics and optical components track a patient's eye movements. Advanced algorithms quantify how well a patient's eyes can follow and synthesize a visual target. Its head mounted display and hooded goggles fit on a wide variety of head shapes and sizes. Exterior housing was built to withstand rugged use in the military theater, on the athletic field and in other remote venues. Administration by a medical professional or trained individual makes critical information available in critical situations.
- How did you learn that you had been recognized by the jury?
Our category was announced at 3am Eastern time in the USA. As a result, tool., Inc. learned about our recognition via email. It was quite exciting to read the "Congratulations" message on the Sync Think EYE-SYNC project. It is an honor to receive international recognition for our work.
- What's the latest news or development with your project?
Sync Think is having great success working with the US military to gain real-time feedback on the EYE-SYNC device and how it is being used to make important decisions around soldier safety and well being. Quick, reliable identification of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) - or concussions, as they are more commonly known - is an extremely relevant topic for US soldiers deployed around the world. EYE-SYNC allows individuals with cognitive impairment to be promptly identified and removed from potentially harmful activity. In other news, the EYE-SYNC device was featured on a great segment of Bloomberg Television's "Taking Stock." Dr. Jamshid Ghajar of the Brain Trauma Foundation discussed this new diagnostic technology for traumatic brain injuries. A video clip from the show can be found here.
- What is one quick anecdote about your project?
tool., Inc. was introduced to Sync Think by Bre Pettis at MakerBot Industries. We had just finished working with MakerBot when Bre thought tool., Inc. would be a good match for what Sync Think was looking to achieve. Let's just say this—it's always a good day when a guy who's on the cover of WIRED magazine (the design issue, no less) puts in a good word on your behalf. Thanks to Bre and Sync Think for your outstanding vision of a match made to last.
- What was an "a-ha" moment from this project?
Both tool., Inc. and Sync Think knew it was critically important to minimize the weight of the device. Its ability to be a portable solution hinged on it being lightweight. Additionally, we all knew that user comfort - when the device was placed on the head - was directly influenced by the overall weight. However, after our first round of ideation, we mocked up a super rough weight distribution model using a climbing helmet and a weighted bar (see the PDF - Phase 1a). Weights were placed on the bar and moved closer or further from the head. After putting this on a number of heads, we found that users found a greater amount of weight bearable (dare we say "comfortable") if it was well-distributed and if the load was balanced on the head. While the goal was still a lightweight device, this helped tool., Inc. work through a few comfort issues towards a more resolved solution for all users.

Project Name: VaccJect Designers: Duoject Design Team
VaccJect is a safe, simple and cost effective cartridge-based alternative to a prefilled syringe. Its unique passive retraction mechanism never exposes the needle, either before, during or after injection. The drug is contained in a standard 1ml ISO cartridge and is kept separate from the device until point of use. This greatly reduces cold-chain shipping and storage costs and eliminates the need for secondary packaging at the pharmaceutical facility. VaccJect takes advantage of the numerous benefits of a cartridge over a syringe: Low cost, high speed filling, baked silicone, no tungsten, etc.
- How did you learn that you had been recognized by the jury?
As the jury announcement was in Shanghai, we learned that we had been recognized early in the morning when we watched the broadcast video together. Also, first hearing the words "... from Bromont, Québec..." during the announcement obviously caught our attention as we are probably the only design firm in the Bromont area!
- What's the latest news or development with your project?
Duoject is pleased to announce that the device is currently being evaluated by many large pharmaceutical companies worldwide and has successfully undergone various user studies. We're taking necessary steps to bring VaccJect to the market in the near future.
- What is one quick anecdote about your project?
During a focus study, a potential client was present with us behind the one-way mirror and mentioned that the next group of testers, in this case physicians, was very harsh in evaluating new medical devices. He essentially told us to prepare for the worst. To everyone's surprise, the first doctor gave the device a near perfect score, as did all the following testers in this group. The expression on the client's face was priceless!
- What was an "a-ha" moment from this project?
It's pretty hard to pinpoint the "a-ha" moment in the design of the VaccJect. A lot of small "a-ha" moments is probably closer to what happened during the development process. We have tons of objects to play with around the office and during the VaccJect project, the analogy to a ballpoint pen was one of the main inspirations for the design. Another "a-ha" moment was when we decided to keep the small drug container separate from the device until moment of injection. We realized that this decision could be a potential game changer for applications where medication must be kept refrigerated and areas where cold storage is at a premium.

Indonesia: Discrimination law may not be effective
Human rights groups have cast doubt on the effectiveness of the newly enacted law against racial and ethnic discrimination, citing its narrow coverage.
Human rights groups have cast doubt on the effectiveness of the newly enacted law against racial and ethnic discrimination, citing its narrow coverage.
"The law will not settle all problems related to discrimination because it only regulates discrimination against races and ethnicities, whereas the causes of discrimination are far more widespread than that," Wahyu Effendi, chairman of the Movement Against Discrimination (Gandi), told The Jakarta Post.
The anti-discrimination law was officially enacted on 28 October 2008 to coincide with the Youth Pledge anniversary.
Wahyu said Gandi and several other NGOs had earlier proposed the law also deal with discrimination against women, the disabled, and homosexual, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) groups.
"But the proposal turned into a long debate at the House of Representatives. It held up the deliberation of the bill for a while," he said.
He added Islamic parties were strongly opposed to recognising religious and sex orientation discrimination in the bill, forcing the House to revert to its old draft.
"The old draft was based on the 1999 convention on the elimination of all forms of discrimination, and focuses more on racial and ethnic discrimination," Wahyu said.
Besides, he went on, the law only covered discrimination committed by individuals or discrimination in workplaces. He pointed out discrimination by government officials or institutions were not dealt with in the law.
"There are many omissions that make me pessimistic about the effectiveness of the law," he said.
Ahmad Baso, a member of the National Commission on Human Rights (Komnas HAM), said the commission welcomed the new law despite its perceived shortcomings. He said Komnas HAM had asked why legislators had only dealt with racial and ethnic discrimination in the law.
"According to lawmakers, religion is part of ethnicity," he said.
The legislators, Ahmad continued, claimed the need to not recognize gender discrimination was regulated in the 1984 law on the ratification of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW).
He added the commission would continue discussing the law with representatives of community groups and bring their opinions to the House.
"We will soon discuss the implication of the law with religious organization figures and NGOs," he said. Asked if he would likely file a judicial review, Ahmad said there was no such plan as yet.
"The law was deliberated over just a few days and many people were not aware of it," he said.

More than 100 city librarians, community members and other Chicago Public Library supporters gathered outside Mayor Rahm Emanuel's office in City Hall for a protest and story time in response to Emanuel's proposed cuts to library hours and staffing Monday morning.
The protesters, including a number of costumed toddlers, also delivered petitions with more than 4,000 signatures to Emanuel's office. They hope the mayor will reconsider his deep cuts to the system.
As the Chicago Sun-Times reports, Emanuel has proposed a $10 million reduction in funding for the city's library system, which is comprised of 79 branches located throughout the city. The cuts, if approved by the City Council, mean that libraries will be closed Monday and Friday mornings and that 284 staffers will be laid off, including a number of librarians, clerks and the entire team of pages who are tasked with shelving books. Another 268 vacancies in the system will be eliminated.
City librarian Annie Ayres, who has been working in the system for the last two decades, told the Chicago Tribune that the cuts will have a deep impact beyond just the reduced hours. She and other librarians said they will likely wind up being too busy with other tasks to lead programming like children's story time or to help unemployed patrons use computers to job hunt.
"If we have these cuts, we won't be able to do children's programs or help people look things up," Ayres told the Tribune. "I'll be busy just trying to keep the books on the shelf."
The crowd at City Hall on Monday brandished signs that read, "We Shall Not be Shushed!" and "No Library Cuts, Don't Lock Out Learning," the Tribune reports.
"At a time we're taking more and more things away from our kids, we need to give them something to expand their imaginations," Beverly Cook, another two decades-plus veteran of the city library system told CBS Chicago of the cuts.

ATLANTA (April 8, 2013) -- Luke Hancock made all five of his 3-pointers and led Louisville to its first NCAA men's basketball championship since 1986 with a 82-76 victory over Michigan on Monday night.
Coach Rick Pitino added this title to the one he won at Kentucky in 1996 and is the first coach to win a championship at two schools. Earlier in the day, Pitino was elected to the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.
Hancock scored 22 points and Peyton Siva had 18 for the Cardinals (35-5), who trailed by 12 late in the first half.
Trey Burke had 24 points for Michigan (31-8), which was in the final for the first time since the Fab Five led the Wolverines there in 1993. Little-used freshman Spike Albrecht added 17 points.
With an aching heart and a shot that couldn't miss, Luke Hancock helped Kevin Ware and the rest of the Louisville Cardinals win their national title. Hancock named the Final Four's Most Outstanding Player.
Given increased playing time and more shots because of Ware's injury, Hancock went 5 for 5 from 3-point range in Monday night's 82-76 win over Michigan in the national title game. He finished with 22 points to add to the 20 from Saturday night's semifinals.
Quite a performance from the player coach Rick Pitino was afraid to start because he wanted to keep him out of foul trouble.
Quite a treat for Hancock's father, Bill, who is gravely ill with a sickness the family does not want to disclose, but made the trip down from Roanoke, Va., nonetheless to see his son become the Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four.
