Casino Royale Brings Out the Royal Family
Casino Royale premiered last night in London and the stars came out to show their support for the first blonde Bond. Apparently the only off-color remarks about Daniel Craig have been about his hair. The actor is being praised as the best Bond since Sean Connery. Turns out the UK premiere was quite a royal event. The Dame Judi Dench, Sir Elton John, and even Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip walked the red carpet. Of course somehow Paris Hilton managed to tear herself away from her manhunting in Ireland to attend. The movie hits theaters stateside November 17th.

Successful debt auctions from Germany and Portugal at prices
above expectations eased concerns over the near-term economic
situation in Europe. European stocks liked the news, with the Stoxx
Europe 600 closing up 1.4%. And on our side of the pond, U.S.
stocks broke to new highs and their best levels in over two
Banks in Europe and the United States were big winners.
JPMorgan Chase & Co.
) gained 2.6% and
Bank of America
) rose 2%, both on upgrades by
Wells Fargo & Company
Another winner was
ITT Corporation
), which jumped 17% following an announcement that it will split
into three publicly traded companies.
In economic news, the price of imported goods rose 1.1% in
December. Some analysts cited the number as proof that inflation,
especially in the food and energy sectors, could become a problem.
The Fed's Beige Book showed a modest increase in manufacturing,
retail and non-financial services. But financials and real estate
remain weak.
Treasurys fell yesterday, pushing the yield on the benchmark
10-year note to 3.353%. The euro rose for the third consecutive day
to $1.3129 from $1.2973 on Tuesday.
At yesterday's close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 84
points to 11,755, the S&P 500 gained 11 points at 1,286, and
the Nasdaq was up 21 points to 2,737. The NYSE traded 963 million
shares with advancers ahead of decliners by 2.6-to-1. On the
Nasdaq, advancers were ahead by just over 2-to-1 on volume of 455
million shares.
Crude oil for delivery in February rose 75 cents to $91.86 a
barrel, and the
Energy Select Sector SPDR
) gained 95 cents, closing at $70.09. February gold rose $1.50 to
$1,385.80, and the
PHLX Gold/Silver Sector Index
) fell 0.22 points to 216.15.
Each index made new closing highs again yesterday, including the
barometer that I like most, the broad-based NYSE Composite. The
S&P 500 had the biggest percentage gain, up 0.9%, compared to
0.75% for the Nasdaq.
But the Nasdaq will no doubt receive most of the public's
attention because of its superb performance following a breakout in
late October, and the dynamic run of the technology sector.
Yesterday marked another high for the index, which is now flirting
with the highest level in a 10-year span, the high made in October
2007, at 2,861. Thanks to Michael Ashbaugh for pointing out that
the index is now just 5% away from that mark, which represents a
new intermediate-term target.
But even with dynamic near-term performance, stocks in general,
and especially those on the Nasdaq, have had a poor 10-year record.
The return of the index in the past decade is -5.9%. And that
doesn't even "account for the fact that it peaked 10 months earlier
- during March 2000 at 5,132″ (Ashbaugh).
Perhaps the Nasdaq and the market have a long way to go before
they reach the final top. I hope so, since for many investors, it's
been a rough 10 years. This market continues to "climb the wall of
worry," which means that the intermediate top is still ahead of us.
We'll continue to hang onto our longs, which have some great gains,
but we are hesitant at this level to enter many new positions.
Despite yesterday's breakout, volume was very light and our
internal indicators are again close to two-year highs. We've had no
clear sell signal, which gives us time to continue to prepare for
one by reviewing various exit signals. So far, we've reviewed the
20% rule and the one-day and key reversal day signals. Tomorrow,
I'll cover another valuable exit technique.

Reviews for Feta Shrimp Skillet
Sort By :
"I love this recipe. My only change was I spooned the tomato and shrimp mixture into 2 small personal casserole dishes, piled the feta on top and stuck them under the broiler until the feta softened and browned a bit. Served with Greek salad, crusty bread, white wine and Greek music playing softly in the background. Perfect for date night with hubby!"
"I adore, adore, ADORE this recipe. The sweetness of the shrimp counter-balancing with the sharp, salty flavor of the cheese to create a perfect bite. Will use this often."
"Just great. Made over the 4th of July weekend. I eliminated 1 can of the diced tomatoes for 6oz of sweet chili sauce. Wow!"
"I made this with tomatoes with chili and topped with fresh chopped parsley & feta and served over angel hair. Soooo delicious and easy to make!!!! Like a one-skillet dish."
"Super easy and fast!! So delicious! Served mine over a little brown rice but could totally go without the rice would be superb with some crusty bread to soak up the yummy juice."

Nuts have a lot going for them. They are nutritious, portable and delicious. It's no wonder that they are popular snacks, especially among those who eat for better health. Because they are naturally gluten- and grain-free, they are also a wonderful snack for those with common food allergies.
A serving of nuts a day has been linked to longer life, and olive oil and nuts are linked to sharper brains. Eating nuts instead of carbs aids in controlling diabetes because of their protein and good fat content along with low carbohydrate content. They are also on many healthiest foods lists because of their many benefits.
Generally speaking, they are a great source of protein, healthy fats, and a moderate source of carbohydrates. But each has its own benefits as well. Here are five of the most popular nuts on the market, along with the nutritional values of each.
Photo: Lecic/Shutterstock
Almonds: Almonds are one of the most popular nuts for good reason. They are mild in taste, a more frugal nut choice, and easy to find. For those needing a peanut-free nut butter option, almond is the most popular, and is widely available. Almonds are higher in protein and fiber in comparison to other nuts, and have been found in preliminary studies to be a heart-healthy snack.
1 ounce of almonds will give you the following percentage of daily nutrient needs:
- 12 percent of protein
- 14 percent of fiber
- 17 percent vitamin B2
- 19 percent of magnesium
- 32 percent of manganese
- 37 percent of vitamin E
1 ounce of walnuts will give you the following percentage of daily nutrient needs:
- 8 percent of fiber
- 9 percent of protein
- 10 percent phosphorus
- 11 percent of magnesium
- 22 percent of copper
- 48 percent of manganese
Hazelnuts (also known as filberts): These are a personal favorite because they are full of flavor and grown locally in Oregon. Of the tree nuts, hazelnuts have the highest amount of folate per serving, making them an excellent nut to consume during pregnancy.
1 ounce of hazelnuts will give you the following percentage of daily nutrient needs:
- 8 percent of vitamin B6
- 8 percent of protein
- 12 percent of thiamin
- 12 percent of magnesium
- 21 percent of vitamin E
- 24 percent of copper
- 87 percent of manganese
Photo: Graletta/Shutterstock
Pistachios: These lovely nuts are a bright green color due to their chlorophyll content, and are delicious eaten shelled, and in a variety of desserts. When buying in shell, look for ones that aren't closed all the way. Not only will the ones with shells slightly parted be easier to shell, but the closed ones also indicate immature nuts.
1 ounce of pistachios will give you the following percentage of daily nutrient needs:
- 12 percent of protein
- 12 percent of fiber
- 14 percent of phosphorus
- 16 percent thiamin
- 18 percent of vitamin B6
- 18 percent of manganese
1 ounce of pecans will give you the following percentage of daily nutrient needs:
- 5 percent of protein
- 8 percent of magnesium
- 8 percent of phosphorus
- 11 percent of fiber
- 12 percent of thiamin
- 63 percent of manganese

Lauren Conrad and Lo Bosworth Disagree on Spinning
While talking to PopSugar on their way to A Time For Heroes Celebrity Carnival, LC and Lo talked health and fitness.
Lauren told Pop that the housemates cook a lot at home and are firm supporters of organic food. Among many things they share, one is a personal trainer. They do not, however, share the same opinion when it comes to spinning. Here's a brief exchange to clue us in to their fitness personalities:
Lo: I just started spin and Lauren went with me.
LC: — and I hate it. I prefer boxing or hiking, more fun activities.
Lo: I love it though. I think it's just important to keep it varied so you don't hit a plateau.
Last year we learned that LC loved boxing, and glad to hear she is sticking with it — you gotta do what you love. I share a love of spinning with Lo. What about you? Where do you stand in the great spinning debate?

Quebec may not be the first place that comes to mind when it comes to building motorized vehicles, particularly in comparison to its neighboring province of Ontario. But French Canada has given us some rather interesting modes of transportation, from the Bombardier Ski-Doo and Can-Am Spyder to the Campagna T-Rex and Magnum MK5. But this latest invention, well, we're not quite sure what to call it.

Rui Costa wins 16th stage
Updated: July 16, 2013, 6:07 PM ETAssociated Press
GAP, France -- Hurtling too fast for comfort down a twisty, turning foothill of the Alps, Tour de France leader Chris Froome faced a high-speed choice between risk and reward.
The Briton knew that 10 years ago on exactly the same descent, Joseba Beloki shattered his leg, elbow and wrist rounding a corner too fast and Lance Armstrong plowed into a field to avoid the prone Spaniard howling in pain.
So Froome wanted to go easy. Trouble was, Alberto Contador didn't. Against his ...

They own a small plot of land with an old wooden house on it. The house is very old, and it needs renovation, especially insulation and a new roof. It loses heat very quickly during winter, and leaks during summer rains. A well-insulated house uses about two tons of coal for heating during winter, but Algirmaa's house uses twice as much coal, and thus it makes twice as much heavy smoke polluting the air. Ulaanbaatar has been nominated by UNDP as the worst capital city regarding air pollution during winter.
Algirmaa is asking for a loan to buy 250 roof tiles, 50 pieces of rock wool insulation for the wall and roof and other necessary tools. The whole project will cost 2,500,000 MNT, but she will cover some costs from her savings. After the completion of the project, the house should become more energy efficient, warm and water tight.
Additional Information
More information about this loan
This loan is part of Credit Mongol's green loan program, which helps clients to purchase products for improving their heating and ventilation systems, reducing pollution and health problems caused by burning coal in the winter.
About Credit MongolCredit Mongol is the largest non-banking financial institution (NBFI) in Mongolia. Its mission is to contribute to the prosperity of Mongolians by providing high-quality, affordable and varied financial services to micro-entrepreneurs and small-to-medium-sized businesses. It prioritizes serving remote, rural populations that have typically lacked access to credit and other financial services. Uniquely, it offers solar panel loans to nomadic herders, most of whom live without electricity.
About Housing Loans
Many poor families cannot afford housing that meets their needs. When you make a housing loan on Kiva, you give people access to flexible capital to obtain or improve their homes. Better housing means better health, sanitation, and even educational outcomes for children. A house can also be much more for entrepreneurs who run businesses out of their homes. In this way, housing and small business loans on Kiva share a common purpose: to alleviate poverty and enable families to enjoy more stable lives.

Tonight's third episode of BBC talent show The Voice featured rather a lot of hopefuls who have already had a shot at forging a career as a singer or have rubbed shoulders with the stars already.
As well as Amy Winehouse's ex Tyler James, the show starred Joelle Moses, 21, from London, who was the first singer to go onto the stage. Having already worked as a backing singer with the likes of Toni Braxton, she now wants to emulate the success of the stars she's worked with and "be in the front".
All four coaches certainly seemed to think she could and all buzzed their appreciation, with Danny even claiming he'd sacrifice his left arm to work with her, while Jessie offered to share her shoe collection. We know which one we'd take up (it's the heels by the way).
Another female contestant from London, 29 year old Allyson Brown, said she was "winning awards when Jessie was still at school" thanks to being crowned MOBO best unsigned act in 1998.
Despite the accolade and rubbing shoulders with the likes of P Diddy (they do love a name drop on this show), Allyson didn't manage to get signed to a record label. Unfortunately she's not likely to now either, as none of the coaches wanted to mentor her, which leaves Jessie J kicking herself and saying: "She should have been one of my girls".
One for the girls is Cassius Henry, who some may remember from 2005 when he released an album and performed his top 40 single Broke on Top of the Pops. He revealed he worked with Kanye West and toured with R Kelly, but ducked out of the limelight when his younger brother died from a heart condition.
He said he now wants to make his brother proud of him again and blows the coaches away with a cover of Ne-Yo's Closer, which leaves Danny and Jessie fighting it out to bag him for their team.
If Cassius does go on to win The Voice, it will do nothing for fix claims against the show. The prize is a contract with Universal – who Cassius was signed with previously and who all of the coaches, except Danny, are still signed to. Hmmmm.
Check out all the action from tonight's show with a recap of our live blog here.

This school is across from large apartment complex and there seems to be high turnover of students. The teachers in younger grades are good but as kids get older not so much. The only staff I ever see mingling or smiling on campus is the Vice Principal. The Principal always seems to be in a rush. Office staff not very friendly. They push the new common core. The PTA is actually asking for donations to help implement it on their annual fund raising campaign yet we have no art teacher..no music teacher...I do not want to use my hard earned money to pay for a new curriculum that was never voted on by parents has a horrible track record in places that started long before us. Notice all the great reviews on this site are for Pre K Kindergarten and 1st/2nd grade or the reviews are very old. The drop off and pick up at this school is the absolute worst. We moved here for the schools. Disappointed with this one.

Four Ypsilanti Township teenagers have been arrested in a robbery and assault on a Michigan college student.
The Ann Arbor News reports http://bit.ly/1ladYwp that the teens ages 17, two 16-year-olds and 15 are being held in the Washtenaw County Jail and are expected to be arraigned Saturday.
Police say a 19-year-old Eastern Michigan University student was followed Tuesday night as he walked to his car from an Ypsilanti restaurant. He was ordered at gunpoint from the vehicle and struck in the face with the weapon.
The four suspects were unable to drive away in the student's car because the street was too icy.
The student tried running away through backyards in the area, but was caught and had his wallet taken.

In "sleigh Ride," the narrator is painting a scene so perfect that it could be featured on an iconic Currier and Ives print.
After wandering at haphazard some little way I met a peasant in a sleigh.
Yes, the future lawmaker built up a full-service Santa business with a sleigh pulled by real reindeer.
They started off from the village at a good jog with the blanketed black mare trotting easily behind the sleigh.
He was throwing back the robe to leap from the sleigh when the figure reached him.
They found it had done so however, when they descended to the sleigh.
On the 10th of March, 1809, the sleigh and its load entered Cleveland.
The skis, through the eddying snow, yelled frantically to the sleigh to give room.
After Dan's departure in the sleigh, Tom wandered about restlessly.
If you will go by no other measures, I will tie you down in my sleigh.
"vehicle mounted on runners for use on ice and snow," 1703, American and Canadian English, from Dutch slee, shortened from slede (see sled (n.)). As a verb from 1728. Related: Sleighing. Sleigh-ride is first recorded 1770; sleigh-bells is from c.1780; they originally were used to give warning of the approach of a sleigh.

We rarely got to see a credible dissent within the Federation, either. Most of the time, the dissenters were shown as loony or violent. (Alixis, Eddington, Cartwright, Section 31, need I continue?) To see someone fundamentally disagree with Federation policy and be taken seriously as a character--that's not something I think I ever saw. You never saw a conservative that was treated as anything but a stumbling block, a blockhead, or an enemy: kind of the Cardassian problem in inverse. And THAT is pretty chilling considering the Federation was supposed to be a democracy.
I've felt the same way, actually. I always wondered if it was because we primarily saw Starfleet humans, who seem to be born and bred Federation policy regurgitators and non-Starfleet humans show a wider range of responses to Federation laws and policies. In the same way that Sisko's dad refused the blood screenings in
Paradise Lost
when all the Starfleet characters go along with it without blinking.
And even when someone DOES show a different reaction, they seem to be looked at as kind of a throwback or superstitious or whatever.
Eddington kinda had a point didn't he? "You're just like the Borg, only more insidious"
I think that's what made him an interesting character - he was a character who turned away from the Federation ideals without appearing (to the audience at least) a nutjob or an idiot. In fact, at least in
For the Uniform
, he seems to ahve it together more than Sisko does. His references to
Les Miserables
in that episode are not misplaced, imho.
Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck.

Hi all,
I am having problems with getting expression of my genes which were cloned under the GAL1 promoter of pYES2/CT plasmid from invitrogen.
I had first inoculate the transformed yeast colonies in YNB -URA medium with 2% raffinose overnight. Then after around 12-16 hours, I transferred the cell pellets to the induction medium which is YNB -URA with 1% raffinose and 2% galactose. My cells were growing normally with OD600 peaked at a reading of around 13. I had collected samples from the induction medium from 19 hours to 71 hours after induction. Samples were taken every 12 hours after the 19th hour of induction. I tried to run western blot and even RT-PCR but all tests gave me negative results. My genes were successfully transformed inside the yeasts as confirmed by colony PCR. Thus, something must be wrong from the induction steps onwards.
I read it from somewhere that galactose induction occurs as early as 2 hours after induction. Is it true?
If true, then is it possible that by the 19th hour, all the galactose were used up and thus I am getting negative results?
Hope someone will be kind enough to offer some advices on this. I had be trying at this for nearly 2 months now. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Kim Kardashian's never been one to miss a Throwback Thursday moment, and this week is no exception!
The 33-year-old posted several shots of herself on the beach with North West during their trip to Mexico a week ago.
The E! reality star's figure looks fabulous in a tan string bikini, while her baby girl appeared to be enjoying her day in the sun in a matching one-piece bathing suit.
"#TBT me and my beach babe in Punta Mita, Mexico," she captioned one of the snapshots.
Kim, Kanye West and Nori recently enjoyed a family-filled relaxing getaway at Casa Aramara, the only 5-star private residence in Punta Mita.
E! News has learned the vacation rental, which starts at $15,000 per night, features 12 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. Not too shabby!
If the personal chefs and expansive accommodations weren't enough, guests can enjoy a lovely access to a stunning private beach.
And Kim's posted a slew of sexy selfies from her time at Casa Aramara.
"Heaven on earth!" Kim wrote from her vacation. "Thank you @RealJoeFrancis for letting us stay at Casa Aramara!"
She also posed sexily on a lounge, showing off her fit post-baby bod.
"Last day to get my tan in..." She Instagrammed alongside the provocative photo.
PHOTOS: See the Kardashians and more in our E! News Instagram Wall!
Kim also revealed that little North took her first steps during the vacation in front of both of her parents!
"Our baby girl finished one week of swimming lessons today then took her 1st steps right when she got out of the pool!!!! Mommy & Daddy are so proud of you!!!! Photo cred: Daddy," Kim wrote.
Just this afternoon, Kim, Kendall Jenner and Kris Jenner were all spotted heading to Ibiza via LAX for Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci's birthday bash. Looks like more summer selfies are in the very near future!
Tune-in to the brand new episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians this Sunday at 9/8c on E!

Concerning Idol Sacrifices
1Now concerning idol sacrifices, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
2If anyone thinks he knows anything, he doesnt yet know as he ought to know.
3But if anyone loves God, he is known by Him.
4Therefore concerning the eating of idol sacrifices, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
5For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many gods and many lords),
6yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Yeshua the Messiah, through whom are all things, and we exist through Him.
7But that knowledge is not in everyonesome, so accustomed to idols up until now, eat food as an idol sacrifice; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
8But food will not bring us before God. We are no worse off if we do not eat and no better off if we do eat.
9But watch out that this freedom of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.
10For suppose someone sees youwho have this knowledgedining in an idols temple. If his conscience is weak, wont he be emboldened to eat idol sacrifices?
11For the one who is weak is destroyed by your knowledgethe brother for whom Messiah died.
12In this way, when you sin against the brothers and sisters and wound their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Messiah.
13For this reason, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I do not cause my brother to stumble.

EOD Soldier breaks world record
September 24, 2013
By Staff Sgt. Richard Sherba, 8th Military Police Brigade Public Affairs
Related Links
HONOLULU -- At 3:45 a.m., Sept. 23, EOD Soldiers from across the 303rd Explosive Ordnance Disposal Battalion, 8th Military Police Brigade gathered in a parking lot at Schofield Barracks and awaited a bus to transport them to Ching Field at the University of Hawaii - Manoa Campus to witness history.
Soldiers boarded the bus, found seats and nestled in for naps during the hour-long ride while others engaged in conversations, "eighty pounds is 80 pounds, after a while it starts wearing on the body, the weight starts pulling you down. The heat the body is putting off is just staying inside [the bomb suit] and there's no where the heat can get out, it just gets hotter and hotter," said Staff Sgt. Dean Kaialau, team leader, 74th Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company, 303rd EOD Bn., 8th MP Bde. "Running one mile consistently in a bomb suit, that's pretty rough… It's not just about the physical endurance it's also about the mental endurance of taking that kind of punishment to the body."
Perhaps only an EOD Soldier can truly understand what 1st Lt. Ashley Sorensen, operations officer, 706th Explosive Ordnance Disposal Company, 303rd EOD Bn., was about to go through in attempting to break the world record for a one-mile run in a bomb suit (female) and perhaps that is the reason why the bus was packed full of Soldiers as it rolled along the highway at "o-dark-thirty" on Monday morning.
Sorensen, a native of Milwaukee, didn't disappoint the bus full of Soldiers because she rolled along too, for four grueling laps on a track at Ching Field, University of Hawaii - Manoa Campus.
The 25-year-old Sorensen was steady, gritty and tough as she maintained a pace of about two minutes and 45 seconds per lap and shattered the previous world record of 13 minutes 47 seconds when she crossed the finish line at 11 minutes 6 seconds.
Video and photographic evidence was meticulously gathered, as well as sworn statements to be submitted to the Guinness Book of World Records and pending their results and findings Sorensen's name can then be entered in as the official record holder of the one-mile run in a bomb suit (female.)
It will take four to six weeks to get an official ruling from the Guinness Book of World Records, but that didn't stop EOD Soldiers, Sorensen and her supporters from celebrating time now.
"We're extremely proud of Lt. Sorensen and her accomplishments; it really sheds light on the capabilities of women in the Army and the capabilities of EOD. We are especially glad to be able to share this event with the University of Hawaii and their ROTC department and we're thankful for all the help they gave us in making this happen," said Lt. Col. Mark R. Faria, commander, 303rd EOD Bn., 8th MP Bde.
From the stands a Sorensen supporter was inspired by what she witnessed.
"She [Sorensen] is opening the door for a lot of people, she stands up when people out there say 'you can't do it' and she's showing them that yes, she can do it. It makes her a role model for female Soldiers and for all Soldiers," said Spc. Estella Clark, administrative clerk, 74th EOD Co., 303rd EOD Bn., 8th MP Bde.
After giving numerous interviews on camera and off, Sorensen, a graduate of West Point, reflected on her accomplishment.
"That was probably the hardest thing I have ever done. I think as an athlete you have to be able to deal with pressure, and it felt like there was a little bit of extra weight on me out there; with all the people watching and the cameras everywhere," said Sorensen.
She concluded, "as long as you put your mind to something, and if you really try and if you really want it enough, you'll figure out a way to do it."

The Supreme Council of Information and Communication Technology (ictQATAR) yesterday released the country's National Broadband Plan for public consultation, which aligns with Qatar's target to achieve "ubiquitous, high speed" broadband access for 95% of households and businesses by 2015. It also is aligned with Qatar's National Vision 2030, and ensures that Qatar maximises the opportunities arising from the FIFA World Cup in 2022.This document, Qatar's first National Broadband Plan, supports and promotes broadband market development by providing the guidelines and actions the nation needs to take in the next decade to ensure that the opportunities offered by broadband technology are realised.This plan represents Qatar's commitment to becoming a "leading digital economy" and recognises the critical contribution of information and communication technology. ictQATAR realises that high-quality, high-speed, affordable broadband services are essential to future innovation, economic diversification, and creating a knowledge-based economy. All stakeholders and interested parties are invited to comment on the proposed plan and provide feedback to ictQATAR by May 29. Comments should be submitted by e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com All comments received in response to this public consultation will be carefully reviewed and considered by ictQATAR before finalising the plan.The complete consultation document and the draft National Broadband Plan can be downloaded from the ictQATAR website at http://www.ictqatar.qa/en/documents/document/national-broadband-plan-state-qatar
