Bayh Shouldn't Be Surprised by the Bad Tax He Passed
Regarding "ObamaCare's Tax Raid on Medical Devices" (op-ed, Sept. 28): Former Sen. Evan Bayh is a rare Democrat who grasps that raising taxes on a product or service always has a negative effect on economic activity related to that good or service. Most of his fellow Democrats accept the law of supply and demand when it comes to taxing behaviors they don't like, such as smoking or driving less fuel-efficient cars, but they ignore the universal principle or pretend that it doesn't apply when they are obsessed with raising tax revenue. That seems to be the case with ObamaCare's 2.3% tax on medical-device sales (representing about 15% of industry profits).
Art Davidson
Evan Bayh partially misrepresents the 2.3% federal excise tax on medical devices that goes into effect in 2013. The tax applies to the sale as well as importation of defined medical devices. The consumer loses with such an ill-advised tax, but the attribution of this tax as a job killer chasing U.S. companies offshore is misplaced. A foreign manufacturer that wants to sell its medical devices in the U.S. will pay this tax too. U.S. manufacturers' exportation of these items isn't subject to the tax.
John F. Michel
I certainly agree with former Sen. Bayh when he states that hundreds of small companies could be especially hard hit. Stryker Corp. was one of the firms in a major study of this industry that I conducted in 1967. During its infancy, Dr. Homer Stryker was alone in his small laboratory, developing a saw that would remove casts from a patient's arm. What if he had faced such onerous legislation? Would we today ever hear of the name Stryker in the medical-device industry?
H. Ralph Jones
Oxford, Ohio
The then-Sen. Bayh provided the enabling vote for the law containing this tax. He may have missed it at the time, but there were Americans all over the country trying to put the brakes on ObamaCare. One of reasons we were protesting was the medical-device tax. We knew two years ago that the damage it would cause was one of those "unintended consequences" of this law.
Senator, your vote and your vote alone could have defeated this law.

LinearGradientBrush class
Paints an area with a linear gradient.
- Object
- DependencyObject
- Brush
- GradientBrush
- LinearGradientBrush
<LinearGradientBrush ...> oneOrMoreGradientStops </LinearGradientBrush
XAML Values
- oneOrMoreGradientStops
One or more GradientStop object elements. Object elements defined here become members of the collection when code accesses the GradientStops property at run time.
The LinearGradientBrush class has these types of members:
The LinearGradientBrush class has these constructors.
|Initializes a new instance of the LinearGradientBrush class.
|Initializes a new instance of the LinearGradientBrush class that has the specified GradientStopCollection and angle.
The LinearGradientBrush class has these methods. It also inherits methods from the Object class.
|Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Returns any base value established for a dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Returns the local value of a dependency property, if a local value is set. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Registers an instance-specific property value for a property-changed notification that comes from the core property system. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Sets the local value of a dependency property on a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Cancels a change notification that was previously registered by calling RegisterPropertyChangedCallback. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
The LinearGradientBrush class has these properties.
|Access type
|Gets or sets a ColorInterpolationMode enumeration value that specifies how the gradient's colors are interpolated. (Inherited from GradientBrush)
|Gets the CoreDispatcher that this object is associated with. The CoreDispatcher represents a facility that can access the DependencyObject on the UI thread even if the code is initiated by a non-UI thread. (Inherited from DependencyObject)
|Gets or sets the ending two-dimensional coordinates of the linear gradient.
|Identifies the EndPoint dependency property.
|Gets or sets the brush's gradient stops. (Inherited from GradientBrush)
|Gets or sets a BrushMappingMode enumeration value that specifies whether the positioning coordinates of the gradient brush are absolute or relative to the output area. (Inherited from GradientBrush)
|Gets or sets the degree of opacity of a Brush. (Inherited from Brush)
|Gets or sets the transformation that is applied to the brush using relative coordinates. (Inherited from Brush)
|Gets or sets the type of spread method that specifies how to draw a gradient that starts or ends inside the bounds of the object to be painted. (Inherited from GradientBrush)
|Gets or sets the starting two-dimensional coordinates of the linear gradient.
|Identifies the StartPoint dependency property.
|Gets or sets the transformation that is applied to the brush. (Inherited from Brush)
LinearGradientBrush is a type of Brush that is used for many possible UI properties that use a Brush to fill some or all of an object's visual area in app UI. Examples of some of the most commonly-used properties that use a Brush value include: Control.Background, Control.Foreground, Shape.Fill, Control.BorderBrush, Panel.Background, TextBlock.Foreground. LinearGradientBrush is an alternative to the more commonly used SolidColorBrush type.
The StartPoint and EndPoint properties of LinearGradientBrush describe two points in a relative coordinate space. This creates an orientation for the gradient, and typically this specifies a horizontal gradient, or a vertical gradient. A diagonal gradient can also be used. A LinearGradientBrush typically has two or more GradientStop values for the GradientStops property (an ordered collection). Each GradientStop specifies a Color and an Offset. Offset represents a position between 0 (the StartPoint) and 1 (the EndPoint) along the gradient, and the actual pixel length of the brush and its gradient are adjusted based on the UI where you apply your LinearGradientBrush as a value. For more info on how Offset values are defined and how Offset, StartPoint and EndPoint are related, see Use brushes. It's common to use
You can use the Transparent value for one of the GradientStop colors. Although this doesn't visually apply any changes to UI (it's transparent), that point is detectable for hit-testing purposes. For more info on hit testing, see "Hit testing" section of Mouse interactions.
The GradientStop values of a LinearGradientBrush can be animated as part of transitions or decorative animations. Use one of the dedicated animation types that can animate a Color value. This usually involves having
.(GradientStop.Color) be a part of a longer property path for a Storyboard.TargetProperty value. For more info on property targeting and how to animate properties that use Brush values, see Storyboarded animations.
Brushes as XAML resources
Each of the Brush types that can be declared in XAML (SolidColorBrush, LinearGradientBrush, ImageBrush) is intended to be defined as a resource, so that you can reuse that brush as a resource throughout your app. The XAML syntax shown for Brush types is appropriate for defining the brush as a resource. When you declare a brush as a resource, you also need an x:Key attribute that you'll later use to refer to that resource from other UI definitions. For more info on XAML resources and how to use x:Key attribute, see ResourceDictionary and XAML resource references.
The advantage of declaring brushes as resources is that it reduces the number of runtime objects that are needed to construct a UI: the brush is now shared as a common resource that's providing values for multiple parts of the object graph.
If you look at the existing control template definitions for Windows Runtime XAML controls, you'll see that the templates use brush resources extensively (although these are usually SolidColorBrush, not LinearGradientBrush). Many of these resources are system resources, and they use the {ThemeResource} markup extension for the resource reference rather than {StaticResource} markup extension. For more info on how to use system resource brushes in your own control template XAML, see XAML theme resources.
This example creates a linear gradient with four colors and uses it to paint a Rectangle.
<StackPanel> <!-- This rectangle is painted with a vertical linear gradient. --> <Rectangle Width="200" Height="100"> <Rectangle.Fill> <LinearGradientBrush StartPoint="0.5,0" EndPoint="0.5,1"> <GradientStop Color="Yellow" Offset="0.0" /> <GradientStop Color="Red" Offset="0.25" /> <GradientStop Color="Blue" Offset="0.75" /> <GradientStop Color="LimeGreen" Offset="1.0" /> </LinearGradientBrush> </Rectangle.Fill> </Rectangle> </StackPanel>
This illustration shows the resulting gradient. The gradient axis is marked with a dashed line and the gradient stops are marked with circles.

Kiana (Katyaak or Katyaaq in Iñupiaq) is a city in Northwest Arctic Borough, Alaska, United States. At the 2010 census the population was 361.
Pre Contact[edit]
|This section does not cite any references (sources). (September 2015)
Kiana, meaning where three rivers meet, was founded several centuries ago. Before Kiana became a village, the Inupiat Eskimos tended to travel with certain animal herds; constantly hunting for meat and furs.
In the 1800s, the Inupiaqs of Kiana used to live along the Kobuk River. Throughout the year the villagers would hunt and fish near their houses. They moved to where there was an abundance of animals and fish. The Inupiaqs lived in sod houses, and did not live in them twice, because they would move to where the animals were.
When someone died inside the house they abandoned it, believing they would catch a contagious disease. Instead of building coffins or digging graves, the villagers wrapped the bodies of the deceased in cloths and put poles in them to make a teepee shape.
Early 20th Century[edit]
The first white men came up with boats in 1898 and changed the way of life. They settled in where is now Kiana. More white men came in 1901 and 1902, and started building houses. Inupiaq women moved to them and married them.[3]
Archaeologists have discovered a pre-contact Inupaiq village near Kiana. From carbon dating, the archaeologists discovered the village was from the late 1700s to the early 1800s. When more digging was done, they found that some of the houses they excavated were connected with tunnels and passage ways. The average house size in the village was about the size of typical one-roomed cabins. Some of the artifacts that were found include metal fragments and shards, as well as glass beads.[4]
Kiana is the central village of the Kobuk river, for Kowagmiut Inupaiq Eskimos. Kiana became known to the Federal Government after a population increase, eventually making the town in to a city, in the year 1915. A United States Post Office was founded in the year 1964.[5]
Before the post office was built, mail came only once a month. The mail transportation method was mainly by dogsled or by walking from one village to another. During this time, Kiana became a key supply city for coal and gold miners who were posted along the Squirrel River. The Blankenship Trading Post was the only store with goods, such as: flour, salt, soda pop, coffee, tea, sugar, as well as, canned and dried fruit.[6]
The first villages in the region to start teaching the Inupiaq language in public school were Ambler, Shungnak, and Kobuk. Then Noorvik and the other villages around the region began teaching it as well. Viola Barr and Rosaline Jackson were the first people in Kiana to teach Inupiaq language as a class in 1971.[7] Before white people came to the region, the children of Kiana grew up speaking Inupiaq language. They did not have to learn the language in school because they learned what the words meant just by the native people speaking the language. The children grew up listening to the words and knew what the Inupiaq words meant already. The region is trying to get the language back to speak Inupiaq and make the Elders of Kiana proud. Rosetta Stone and the Inupiaq Language Commission are helping this effort. Most Kiana students and adults don't know how to read, write, or speak the Inupiaq language.[8]
Kiana is located at 66°58′18″N 160°25′49″W / 66.97167°N 160.43028°W (66.971720, -160.430168).[9]
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.2 square miles (0.52 km2), all of it land.
The village of Kiana is located where three rivers meet: the Squirrel River, Kobuk River, and big/small channel rivers. Kiana is in the Northwestern Alaska, 30 miles North of the Arctic Circle, and 57 air miles East of Kotzebue.[6]
In Kiana, there are of frequent storms and extreme temperature swings. There is also evidence of climate change occurring in the past 50 years. Evidence of rising temperatures each month, and increased precipitation (except July) has also been recorded.[10]
The snowfall is significant, at about 60 inches per year, and the rainfall is 16 inches on average. The Kobuk River is navigable by boat from May to October, and frozen for the remainder of the year.[6]
|Historical population
|Est. 2014
As of 2013, the total population in Kiana was 361, 101 occupied households, and 77 families. Average people per household: 3.
The median income for a household in 2011, was $39,688, and the median income for a family was $41,667. Males had a median income of $31,250 versus $35,938 for females. The per capita income for the city was $11,534. About 5.6% of families and 11.2% of the population were below the poverty line, including 9.1% of those under age 18 and 12.5% of those age 65 or over.
People in Community[edit]
Average Age[edit]
|Native American
|African American
|2 or More Races
Kiana has a City Administrator who is ultimately responsible for the day-to-day operations of the facilities and to carry out the vision and the mission that is set forth by the City Council and the Mayor who are both elected by the people. The mayor's responsibility is to help set the focus of the Council.
Tom Cyrus was mayor of Kiana for 7 years; from 2003 to 2010. During that time, the city and traditional council worked very closely. They decided to merge the two governments and formed a joint council since they were working with very similar visions and missions. It was a unique organization that held joint council meetings and planning sessions. They had: one executive director, one accountant, and a city clerk. All administrative positions were moved into one building and they were able to streamline costs by not duplicating services. At that particular period of time, there was not a lot funding available to municipal governments and there were more opportunities for monies through BIA funds and tribal government.
In 2009, the goals began to change and it was decided to separate the two governments. Overall, this helped the community and both the city and traditional governments were financially solvent again.
Some of the issues that the mayor deals with on a weekly basis is help to look for funding, the water and sewer plant, village power, wildlife in the community and the behavior of community members. The mayor often gets phone calls that deal with a variety of issues. The Mayor also has to deal with helping the council and community with long range planning.
Kiana's current mayor, Brad Reich, became mayor when Tom Cyrus resigned in 2009. The full resignation took a year, and Brad become mayor.[15]
There are many types and uses of transportation in and around Kiana, and include travel over both land and water.[6]
The types of land transportation used by the people in Kiana are all terrain vehicles, cars, trucks, and snow machines.[6] They are used for a variety of reasons such as for getting around the village and just riding around.[16]
Some vehicles are used to travel between villages.[6] In the winter, an ice road is usually plowed or formed on the Kobuk River from Kiana to Noorvik, and extends all the way to Kotzebue.[16] In the summer, the people of Kiana use the same routes on motor boats to get to other villages.
In all seasons, people use bush airplanes to get to all other villages in the region. Bob Baker Memorial Airport is located one mile from the city. Bering Air and Ravn Air provide service to Kotzebue and other locations.
The barge system that services Kiana is Crowley Marine Services. This system goes to Kiana every summer, bringing gas, fuel, and other useful products. Store owners use large boats to ship goods upriver.
Cost of transportation is very significant. For example, the costs of gas and reservations to go on a bush plane are very high. Bering Air costs are : round trip to Kotzebue $324, and to Noorvik $180. With Ravn Air:Round trip to Kotzebue is $240, and to Noorvik $160.[6] The gas prices vary : at the Kiana City Office, it costs $7.21,with tax, for one gallon of gas. At Lee's Sea Air (store in Kiana), it's $12 for one gallon.[17]

The Doctor tells her to "walk about like you own the place. It works for me."
The author claims the comment "betrays the ignorance of writers about historical racial violence and contemporary white privilege".
Well now, that's a good point.
Though it does seem like a response one would expect from the Doctor and the writer didn't ignore the issue altogether. It didn't seem too out of place in an episode where no one bats an eye at a woman wearing a tank top, a leather jacket, jeans and big hoop earrings.

Southwark Cathedral
The mother church of the Anglican Diocese of Southwark.
Southwark Cathedral is a parish church which became a cathedral early in the 20th century. St Swithin of weather fame founded a convent on the site which later became a monastery. Henry VIII's closure of the priory led to the main building becoming the parish church. William Shakespeare is believed to have been present when John Harvard, founder of the American university, was baptised here in 1607. This is the year that William's own brother Edmond was buried between the choir stalls. Nearby is the Shakespeare memorial.
The Millennium Project development to the north of the cathedral includes a refectory and a shop with specially commissioned Southwark products. The cloister style courtyard is on the site of the original cloister in use when Southwark Cathedral was a riverside priory. The old and new buildings are separated by an ancient alleyway which has reopened as a glazed street called Lancelot's Link.
On Sundays the main choral eucharist is at 11am.

Fast starts nothing new for Pumas
Kitsap begins its season Sunday against Vancouver.
May doesn't always provide the best weather in the Pacific Northwest, but it's been a pretty good month for the Kitsap Pumas.
Kitsap opened the Premier Development League season two years ago with three wins and one tie. Last year, Kitsap won its first four games.
The successful starts allowed the Pumas to gain entry the U.S. Open Cup tournament in 2009 and 2010. The U.S. Open Cup dates back to 1914 and involves 40 of the top amateur and professional teams in the country, all the way up to Major League Soccer.
Seattle Sounders FC has won the tournament the past two years.
It'll be a bit of a different start for the Pumas, who begin their season today on the road against the Vancouver Whitecaps at Empire Stadium, where Vancouver's MLS team currently plays.
Kitsap's first two games — after Vancouver, the Pumas host Victoria on May 8 — do not count as U.S. Open Cup qualification games because the Pumas are playing opponents from Canada.
The four games that count toward qualification are Washington (May 14), Portland (May 21), Tacoma (May 27) and North Sound (May 29).
Kitsap executive director Ben Pecora said play in the PDL's Northwest Division will be tougher than ever.
"I think it's going to be the most competitive year," he said. "We're not sneaking up on anybody anymore."
Portland returns as the defending league champion. The Timbers U23s beat Kitsap three times last season on their way to a perfect season.
Washington and Tacoma are both playing at different venues this season. Washington is moving from Interbay Stadium in Seattle to Redmond High School, while Tacoma will play at Stadium High School after playing at Curtis High School last year.
Victoria will play the first half of its schedule at Bear Mountain Park in Langford, British Columbia, then finish out the season in downtown Victoria at Royal Athletic Park.
The North Sound SeaWolves, formerly the Yakima Reds, are playing at Goddard Memorial Stadium in Everett.
The Spokane Spiders, members of the Northwest Division in 2010, disbanded after last season.
Some former Pumas will get a chance to play against Kitsap this season. Goalkeeper Liviu Bird and forward Todd Wallenius play for North Sound, while John Fishbaugher is expected to play for Washington.

Morgan Stanley Raises Property in China Portfolio
Morgan Stanley is adding to the weighting of property stocks in its China model portfolio, saying that a further volume recovery in the nation's housing market is "imminent."
The brokerage added China Overseas Land & Investment Ltd. to the model and increased its position in China Resources Land Ltd., according to a report by analysts led by Jerry Lou. A recent increase in residential rents point to pent-up purchase demand, while a greater supply volume in the second half may drive "deeper" price cuts, the analysts wrote.
"From what we observe in the few developers that have been bold enough to cut prices early, their sales volumes have been very impressive," the analysts wrote. "Further volume recovery in the Chinese property market is imminent and we should increase our 'overweight' position."
The 17 developers traded on the MSCI China Real Estate Index have dropped an average 12 percent this year after the government introduced curbs ranging from a ban on third-home mortgages to higher down-payments for second homes. The MSCI China Index has retreated 4.5 percent in 2010.
Home prices in 70 major Chinese cities rose 10.3 percent in July, the slowest pace in six months, the statistics bureau's newspaper, China Information News, reported on Aug. 10. The value of sales fell 19.3 percent from a year earlier, while transactions by floor area shrank 29 percent from the previous month.
'Overly Bearish'
Investors are "overly bearish" on China's property stocks, according to Frank Shi, a Hong Kong-based investment director at Prudential Asset Management. The negative sentiment on Chinese real estate means there may be investment opportunities in the industry, he said.
"The risk for a property bubble in China is much, much lower," Shi told reporters in Singapore on Aug. 13.
Morgan Stanley added a 2 percentage point weighting in China Overseas Land to its China model portfolio. The Hong Kong-listed developer controlled by China's construction ministry said on Aug. 10 property sales rose 21 percent in July from a year earlier.
The brokerage also increased its weighting of China Resources Land by 2 percentage points to 4 percent, according to the report. It trimmed the weighting in China Petroleum & Chemical Corp. and removed China Pharmaceutical Group Ltd.
"Our model portfolio now has even higher beta, with our most heavily weighted industries being properties, banks, steel and construction materials," said the analysts, referring to a measure of risk. "We are bullish on the outlook for Chinese equities."

Red Wine-Braised Beef Tenderloin with Red Pepper and Rosemary
Leave a Review
What a delicious recipe! I love Chateaubriand and making it on the stove brought it to a whole new level. We made this for Christmas dinner and followed the recipe fairly closely with a couple of modifications: -We used a cast-iron tagine throughout the process. First, we used the cast-iron bottom to brown the steak, then covered the whole dish with the tagine top (which made the meat incredibly tender!) -We used cream instead of demiglace. Not a diet dish but certainly delicious and thickened up really well -We used onions and red bell peppers in the sauce It was absolutely fantastic and I plan on adding it to the regular cookbook!
This is my second Christmas preparing this dish and it was absolutely wonderful. My only recommendation is cook by time and not thermometer... tried latter method this year and was slightly over-cooked.
I tripled this recipe and prepared it for ten people on Christmas day using a couple Roseda Beef tenderloin roast. It was easy to prepare and the results were spectacular! All of my quests were totally wowed! I used the recipe as written, no modifications.
Very easy and impressive meal! Read the reviews and also added 1 sliced shallot and 1 cup sliced cremeni mushrooms.
Outstandingly simple to make. I couldn't find demi glaze in a jar however found these pouches at Kroger that I mixed with water. I used mushrooms rather than the red peppers. I would put this in my top five of all time favorite EPI recipes.
Wow, indeed, just made this for Christmas dinner. I substituted mushrooms for the red pepper as previously suggested and because I didn't have demi-glace, boiled down organic beef broth with sherry and balsamic glace, then added the mushrooms and simmered, then added cornstarch at the end to thicken. Best gravy I've ever had.
I made this for our Winter Solstice dinner and it was absolutely amazing. My advice: don't skimp on the ingredients. A two pound tenderloin deserves the best! If you can find demiglace, be sure to use it, because it makes a huge difference. Also, use good bacon, for the bacon flavor will make or break the sauce.
Excellent. Prepared this at Thanksgiving for those who don't love turkey and it was such a hit that I will make it again at the Christmas holiday. Cranberry relish from Good Enough to Eat cookbook was a good side dish for this too!
WOW! OMG! Delicious! Substituted cremini mushrooms for the bell pepper. Sauce was to die for!! Thickened sauce with an arrowroot slurry. Did not have demiglace so I reduced organic beef broth. I purchased an untrimmed tenderloin from Costco for Christmas. I saved and froze the Chateaubriand from the loin. 2 delicious meals in one months time! THIS IS A KEEPER!
This recipe is exceptional. I did cut back a bit on rosemary.

Much of the United States is buried – or about to be buried – under a mountain of snow. Love it or hate it, there's no denying that snow is the word of the week.
Looking for something to do with all that snow outside your door (besides scoop it?) Why not make snow ice cream?
No, we aren't crazy. Snow ice cream is a popular treat for those crafty people who love making stuff out of something that'll just melt eventually. Why not create something useful from it?
Just remember: Only use the freshly-fallen white stuff. Snow that's been sitting around for awhile can have, ahem, unmentionable things mixed in.
Here are a couple of recipes adapted from Lisa Graf at BellaOnline.
Do these sound delicious or disgusting? Would you encourage your kids to eat snow?

When it comes to health and flavor, there's nothing quite like the zesty kick of a ripe, juicy grapefruit.
Grapefruit groves thrive in subtropical climates like Florida, Texas, South Africa, and Brazil. While it's available throughout the year, you'll find grapefruit is at its best when it's in season: from winter through early spring.
Tart and sassy with an underlying sweetness, grapefruit's juiciness rivals the popular orange. Not to be outdone, however, grapefruit holds its own with many of the same health-promoting benefits as its smaller citrus cousin.
Grapefruit is a superhero of gargantuan proportions when it comes to health, no matter if your preference is for white, pink, or ruby, and whole fruit, juice, or pectin forms.
Metabolism, and Weight Management
Say "adios" to adipose! With its high fiber content and low glycemic load, grapefruit could very well be a secret weight-loss weapon.
Adding grapefruit to your diet can boost your metabolism and speed up weight loss, according to a recent study. People who ate half a grapefruit with each meal lost an average of 3.6 pounds. Those who drank a serving of grapefruit juice three times a day lost 3.3 pounds. Many in the study lost an average of 10 pounds!
Feeling a little sluggish? Your body's energy level might benefit from some grapefruit.
A stressful lifestyle along with a poor diet — including vitamin deficiencies and alcohol and drug use — can cause fatigue and health issues. Issues include increased fat storage around the abdomen, less sleep, and altered hormone levels.
Grapefruit also packs a powerful punch of calcium, vitamin C, vitamin A, and magnesium, which can help calm the nerves during stress.
Heart Health
Grapefruit is believed to prevent free radical damage that may contribute to inflammation because it's rich in dietary fiber, potassium, vitamin C, and other nutrients. According to a study, adding grapefruit pectin to your diet without making any other lifestyle changes can reduce total cholesterol by over 7 percent.
Kidney Stones
Drink grapefruit juice and you might just reduce your risk of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Grapefruit juice also prevents smaller calcium oxalate crystals from forming, and it creates less acidic urine, which inhibits the forming of both calcium oxalate and uric acid stones.
One study suggests that women are significantly less likely to form calcium oxalate stones when they drink two to four cups of grapefruit, apple, or orange juice daily. This is because citrate binds with calcium in the urine, which reduces the amount of calcium available to form calcium oxalate stones.
Be sure to replace the calories with juice — instead of adding more — or you'll gain weight. Talk to your doctor or dietitian before including the juice in your daily routine if you have diabetes or prediabetes.
The Takeaway
Grapefruit is packed with nutrients and are good for your heart, metabolism, and many other functions. Just slice one in half and grab a spoon!
You can also reap its bountiful benefits by:
- adding grapefruit slices to fresh salads
- drinking a refreshing grapefruit smoothie
- making broiled grapefruit
It's not a bad idea to check with your doctor before enjoying grapefruit (or its juice) if you're also taking certain pharmaceutical drugs. Certain drugs can become more potent when combined with grapefruit.

NOT LONG AFTER THE YOUNG KING LOUIS XIV came of age, New France was given the institutions of a province of France ( 1663)--governor, intendant and Sovereign Council, with deputy governors and intendants at Montreal and Trois Rivières. The current legal code of the metropolitan capital, the Custom of Paris, hitherto informally used, now became the official code, and as such began its evolution into 'the law of Canada.'
The new turn brought not only institutions but a new vigour embodied in new and able men, conspicuously the Intendant Jean Talon. Talon may have been only a subordinate of the great administrator Colbert, but the energy with which he went at getting the settlements on their feet was his own. His measures are well known--the valiant attempts to set up industries such as shipbuilding and brewing, the new villages he founded back inland from Quebec, his gallant efforts to find wives for men who otherwise would have had indefinitely to face the rigours of celibacy. Under this tide of initiative, the old bad days of 'free enterprise' were left behind and the settlements, thanks to public initiative, began to fuse into something like a community. The worst of the pioneering stage was over and men could now think of themselves not merely as Frenchmen overseas, but as colonials; that is, as people who, remaining just as French as ever, were probably in the new world to stay. During the generation after the establishment of the royal province of New France, all the big things that mark a people's life got some kind of permanent form given to them: government, law, landholding, the kind and amount of education deemed necessary, the relations between Church and State-- all such big matters took on the shape they were to maintain until the English Conquest.
What is to be said of the big things can also be said of the little, for in little things as in big, every new group of people strives for a norm of behaviour. When this is achieved, a way

As far as London hotels are concerned this was very reasonable: clean, if rather Spartan, rooms and price not outrageous.
Location is good with close transport connections. Plenty of reasonably priced eating places close by. Good breakfast included with acceptable supplement for 'full English' (unlike most London hotels). Had some problems with the internet connection (kept switching itself off). Would use again.

Would have preferred English breakfast to be included.
Wasn't nice being asked to pay at breakfast to pay £4 for the extra hot food.
Embarassing. Our room was situated very close to a noisy ventilation chimney that did keep us awake so if we stay again I would ask for a different room.

For the price I call this place better than average. I should say this is not a new facility, no matter how nice the photos look.
The breakfast was as good as advertised, the WIFI worked just fine, and the ice machine made ice (and didn't sound like it was diesel powered). The elevator was fast and worked well--no groans or shakes, and the room was large, comfortable and came with a fridge and microwave and a safe. The upsides aside, the downsides were pretty much as follows: water is VERY HARD, making shaving no fun. The shower water didn't get all that hot while we were there. The pool is heavy on chlorine, so the swimmers on the elevator and the entire lobby smells like Clorox. Not bad if you like that aroma--but a little heavy for me.
We spent two nights, a Tuesday and a Wednesday evening. The prices were different for each night, $79 for Tuesday, $99 for Wednesday. That may have been because I made a reservation for Tuesday (only) but we liked the room and so stayed another night. There was some fancy accounting to add a second night. I had to check out and back in again--that's how they do it--I know, but go figure...
We were in Gettysburg boning up on Civil War experiences. This trip had been on the bucket list for some time, so the hotel was really not all that key to our having a good time. But it worked out just fine, and I'd come back.

With the summer approaching, many parents have spent the last few months planning activities for their children. Some families choose to send their children to camp or specialized programs. Finding appropriate activities can be especially difficult for parents of children recently diagnosed with any special need. Parents should not feel as though they are going through the process alone, however, because there are probably mothers and fathers in the community who are eager to help.
My dissertation research, which involved interviewing Jewish mothers and fathers of children with autism, has revealed that these parents draw strength from and find meaning in helping one another.
One mother talked about how her religious beliefs had inspired and taught her the importance of "paying it forward" and guiding other parents of children recently diagnosed with autism:
"When I do see a mom with a young child with autism I try to get her email. I try to mentor her. The new ones. Give them ideas and tell them what they need to do. No need for anybody to reinvent the wheel".
Another mother I talked to said helping others made her feel better about herself as a parent:
"It gives me sort of confidence in all that I have accomplished with my daughter so I don't get as bent out of shape about certain things that I might have before. I have kind of come up to families along the way whose child is younger than mine and/or they are new to town and I can say these are the agencies that we have used, this is where you can bring your child for respite. You should definitely check out the YMCA, they definitely want to help our children with special needs.
Just trying to help them navigate. Then they say 'Wow, I am so glad you told me about that. Thank you' It gives me comfort to say 'Wow, I guess I really do know something and I can help other people.' I can sort of turn the situation that we have been handed in our family and say, 'Well, there are people that we can help, so maybe it won't be as hard for them.' Other people did that for me and I definitely see that as a very Jewish way."
Judaism emphasizes the importance of helping others. Parents of older children with special needs can guide mothers and fathers who have just started this new role. Passing on special tips, positive experiences, and challenging encounters will allow new mothers and fathers to learn from their trials and tribulations. Both groups of parents will feel a sense of solidarity as they share this process and work together to provide their child with the best possible experiences.

Amazonia Security Agenda
Amazonia's abundant natural resources underpin water, energy, food and health security for the people and
economies of the region and far beyond. At the heart of this nexus of securities is water. So abundant in the
region, but now under increasing threat as industrial and agricultural pollution increases, and extreme droughts reveal a once unthinkable water vulnerability.
Sense of Place
The First in a series of short films, aiming to give viewers an intimate view of wild habitats across the U.K, without the use of narration or a definitive plot, allowing viewers to take what they want from the footage, illustrating as closely as possible what it is like to explore the habitat first hand.
This film could be used to get children writing about 'the sense of place'. Setting the scene, using adverbial phrases to describe where, when and how things are happening. They could use prepositional phrases to describe where things are. They could build word banks to describe the myriad of wonderful things in the film.
It could be the stimulus for a story about the wildlife in the forests.
If you think of other ideas for the film please don't hesitate to add a comment below.

Transatlantic Revivalism: Popular Evangelicalism in Britain and America 1790-1865
Klauber, Martin I., Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society
Transatlantic Revivalism: Popular Evangelicalism in Britain and America 1790-1865. By Richard Carwardine. Carlisle, UK: Paternoster, 2007, 268 pp., $36.99 paper.
Richard Carwardine has been Rhodes Professor of American History at St. Catherine's College Oxford since 2002. His work Lincoln: A Life of Purpose and Power published in 2003 won the Lincoln Prize in 2004 presented annually by the Lincoln and Soldiers Institute at Gettysburg College. This work was so popular that even President Bush claims to have read it! This Lincoln biography cemented the author's reputation as one of the premier historians of American religion in the pre-Civil War era.
Carwardine's Transatlantic Revivalism was first published in 1978 by Greenwood Publishing Group. The reprint by Paternoster Press is not a revision of the original work, but a republication of it as part of the series Studies in Evangelical History and Thought. In light of the notoriety that the author has received for his work on Lincoln, it makes sense to reintroduce Transatlantic Revivalism to a fresh audience.
The author's general premise is that revivalism had a major impact not only on American religion, but also in the shaping of American society and culture. Although most Americans saw this revivalistic environment as markedly distinct from religious life in Europe, Carwardine shows a strong connection between Britain and America especially as it concerned the Methodist movement. British enthusiasts devoured the literature of American Methodism, and many major American revivalists made grand tours of Britain. The author also notes the major changes in revival techniques, moving from a more passive waiting for God to start a revival to the "new measures" of the 1820s and 1830s by which revivalists sought to foster conditions for revival.
Painting a broad panorama of the spirit of revivalism, Carwardine focuses on the major figures that spanned both countries. James Caughey and Charles Finney were the most famous and most effective, but the author also looks at other important evangelists such as Asahel Nettleton, Calvin Cotton, William Bell Sprague, Edward Norris Kirk, Edward Payton Hammond, and Walter and Phoebe Palmer.
Revivalism was not as respectable in Britain, at least among the more privileged classes and the ecclesiastical establishment, but the impact of revivalism was still significant. Carwardine documents hundreds of thousands of converts, most of whom joined non-established churches. Furthermore, in America, the revivalists eventually became the establishment while in Britain the revivalist churches always remained on the periphery. Carwardine notes that this is the reason why revivalism has received so little attention among historians of British history compared with the vast amount of material accorded to the movement in America.
The author is also careful to define his terms. He notes two different usages for the word "revival." First, "it referred to a period of unusually intense 'religious interest' in a single church at a time when penitents sought counsel and salvation in above-average numbers." In a broader sense, it can also mean a revival movement "or the multiplication of local revivals over a broad geographical area for a prolonged period of perhaps several years" (p. xv).
Starting with a survey of "new-measure revivalism" in the 1820s to 1830s, the period generally known as the Second Great Awakening, Carwardine notes that it was part of the Jacksonian optimism of the period, an era in which leaders sought to affect a moral revolution in American society. The new measures were techniques that the revivalists used to try to stir up the revival. The idea that man could do something to "kick-start" a revival ran counter to the prevailing Calvinist approach that emphasized God's role in fostering a revival. Moreover, this new approach served as a challenge to established norms of order and decency. …

After having installed the iPhone SDK 3.1.2, Interface Builder is not in sync with Xcode anymore. The light indicator at the bottom of the XIB window is grey. IB doesn't see any files from the Xcode project. Xcode is always open when I start IB.
I tried rebooting. No luck.
I tried removing the preferences files for Xcode/IB. No luck.
I tried reinstalling Xcode/IB. Still no luck.
This page explains how IB monitors the changes in Xcode. While it was an interesting read, it didn't provide any help about how to investigate my problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Here's additional information. I enabled the debug logs for launchd, and I noticed the following line that appears every time Interface Builder is started:
[0x0-0x1b01b].com.apple.InterfaceBuilder3[315]: Couldn't open shared capabilities memory GSCapabilities (No such file or directory)
This really seems to be related to my issue.
