All stylish, lovely ladies. It's hard to choose, but the fourth one is really perfect - both on trend and classic. The turban is having such a moment right now and her make-up is so fresh and youthful!

Ari, they are all beautiful women but I have to vote for the 5th woman. She looks strong and confident. I am not brave enough to have a cut like hers!
- May 31, 2011 at 1:22 PM
Nice to see older women comfortable with their own faces and hair colour. I wonder if this is a French thing, or are these women just more comfortable with their authentic selves?

It's a toss up between #3 And #4. I love 3's hair and make-up, but I like the clothing and accessories on 4 better than 3's. They are all, however, magnificent!

- May 31, 2011 at 4:44 PM
Although all are lovely, I think my vote is with #3 because to me she represents the style, chic and joie de vivre of a mature Parisian woman.

The first lady reminds me so much of Charlotte Rampling, but my favorite has to be the lady in the spotted scarf. Manifique!

Style award No 1 goes to the lady with the turban, 4th picture. (To a certain extent personal attraction, too.)
- June 1, 2011 at 12:23 AM
Yes, they are all wonderful, but number four, with the turban, she has all that one would expect from a Parisian lady. Very chic!
- June 1, 2011 at 12:36 AM
Hi Ari, I love your blog. It's such a pleasure to visit and take a look, makes my days much more cheerful. And I also think it's great that you're touring now Europe. It' just what I thought recently ... , why doesn't he cover stylish ladies in other cities and on other continents? Anyway, as for this post: All ladies are beautiful. But I love best no. 1 and 3, that's how I can see me in future, as a mix of these styles.
Greetings from Vienna, Brigitte

- Lou said...
All of them showcase unique advanced style and look contemporary and fantastic. I adore how number two has taken on the nude trend, love her hair, her glasses and the bunch of custom jewelry with the green color accent. I try to visit Paris at least once a year exactly because nowhere is advanced style done better, more smashing, convincing or appealing than in Paris. Fact! The French grasp, in a profound way, that beauty has little to do with youth: it's all about charm, joie de vivre and style.
- June 4, 2011 at 7:41 AM
I'd go for number 5 - I wish you would feature more women like her, as the avant-garde/semi-rocker is my prototype and I can't seem to ANYONE older who exemplifies this style....
(But then that might explain why you don't have more examples of this type - they may be extremely rare!!)
- June 4, 2011 at 8:08 PM
- Hana - Marmota said...
I love the first - the shirt's sleeves are great, and all in all it looks a lot like something I'd wear myself, perhaps - good inspiration!
- June 5, 2011 at 2:27 PM
- k said...
i love them all, but the last one is my favorite! there's an "edginess" mixed with a softness that i love!
- June 9, 2011 at 8:15 PM
This 40 year old loves each look and is inspired by every one of the beauties you feature!

I love the color combinations in the photo of the third woman down from the top. What wonderful memories you will have of Paris.

Ahh...a 51 year old Aussie here looking for affirmation that the silver haired set do not have to resort to dressing down or dressing like a teen to look fabulous and stylish. Thanks! How to choose between these gorgeous ladies? I love them all!

Mexican South Pacific Coast mangroves
Coastal mangroves at Chacahua, Mexico. Source: Bernardo Bolaños
The Mexican South Pacific Coast mangroves ecoregion extends along the coastal zone of southern Mexico on the Pacific versant. Mangrove tree roots provide shelter for a considerable variety of fish, invertebrates, and medium-sized vertebrates that use these crevices as protective refuges. Mangroves promote biodiversity by providing shelter and food to many organisms. The relationships that are established and maintained in mangrove communities are ecologically beneficial, such as the use of these ecosystems by mammal species when resources are scarce in other areas. Mangroves are natural stabilisers of lagoon shores which help to maintain the coastal landscape, upon which many other species depend. Mangroves are recognised as important mechanisms for soil retention, and also allow for the formation of soil because they consolidate deposited sediment with organic matter, which supports the terrestrial communities associated with mangroves.
Location and General Description
The mangroves are situated on the coastal plains of the Pacific, in the states of Michoacán, Guerrero, and Oaxaca. They are commonly associated with coastal lagoons, growing on the edge of these. Mangroves surround approximately eight of the eleven lagoons that are included in the ecoregion. Rivers that flow from the mountains of the Sierra Madre del Sur feed the mangroves and lagoons. The soils are commonly derived from sedimentary rocks; clay and mud compose the great majority of sediments that are stored in lagoons, as does sand.
The climate is tropical sub-humid in the south near Oaxaca, but is drier to the northwest in Michoacán; summer rains are generalized throughout the region, but precipitation levels vary with altitude. The dominant mangrove species are Red Mangrove (Rhizophora mangle), White Mangrove (Laguncularia racemosa), Black Mangrove (Avicennia germinans) and Buttonwood (Conocarpus erectus) trees. The salinity of the water and the degree of flooding in the area determine individual species abundance. R. mangle is the most resistant of the four trees, while A. germinans and C. erectus are rare if the floods are permanent, and trees become too deeply submerged in mud. Herbaceous vegetation is scarce, but species such as Lyngbya sp., Cheatomorpha sp., and Ruppia maritima can be found in association with the mangroves. Other lagoons also include associations of Tule (Typha sp.), Cyperus sp., and certain fruit trees such as the coconut (Cocos nucifera). Aquatic plants, including water lilies such as Eichornia sp. and Chara sp., are common in the shallow lagoons.
Biodiversity Features
The southern pacific mangroves are responsible for most of the primary productivity in coastal lagoons. They supply lagoons with large quantities of detritus, which is later used by fish and invertebrates as a source of food. Detritus formed by decomposition of mangrove tree leaves constitutes an energy supply for ecological communities associated with mangroves.
In addition to their importance as a unique habitat, and the extraordinary display of animal species that inhabit them; mangroves are a natural refuge for diverse species of birds, because they harbor many aquatic organisms on which birds feed such as oysters, crabs, invertebrate larvae and other bottom of the food chain organisms. These abundant primary resources make this ecoregion an attractive place for wintering birds to escape the colder northern climates and also serves birds in the process of migrating as refueling, stop-over areas. Resident species are represented by a considerable diversity of bird taxa, including the Wedge-tailed Shearwater (Puffinus pacificus), Red-footed Booby (Sula sula), Neotropic Cormorant (Phalacrocorax brasilianus), Little Blue Heron (Egretta caerulea), Tricolored Heron (Egretta tricolor), Green Heron (Butorides virescens), Sharp-Shinned Hawk (Accipiter striatus), Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperii), Great Black Hawk (Buteogallus urubitinga), Zone-tailed Hawk (Buteo albonotatus), Laughing Gull (Leucophaeus atricilla), Green-fronted Hummingbird (Amazilia viridifrons), Pacific-slope flycatchers (Empidonax difficilis) and many other avian taxa. Winter resident birds also include many species such as the American White Pelican (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos), American Bittern (Botaurus lentiginosus), Ring-necked Duck (Aythya collaris), Northern Shoveler (Anas clypeata) and Ruddy Duck (Oxyura jamaicensis).
Other forms of wildlife in this ecoregion include both mammals and reptiles of many types however larger mammals do not live all the time in this ecoregion they wander using it as part of their range. A few of the mammal species that enter this ecoregion are: nine-banded armadillo (Daypus novemcinctus), White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virgianus), Coyote (Canis latrans), Tapir (Tapirus bairdii), Jaguar (Panthera onca), Greater Sac-winged Bat (Saccopteryx bilineata), northern tamandua (Tamandua mexicana) and hog-nosed skunk (Coneplatus mesoleucus). Reptiles include species of iguanas (Ctenosaura spp.), skinks (Scincella spp.), lizards (Cnemidophorus spp.) and even subspecies of the venomous Brazilian rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus) and the endangered Morelet's Crocodile (Crocodylus moreletii).
Current Status
There is not information on how well preserved this ecoregion is or the extent to which its habitat remains intact. Only a single protected area is dedicated to the preservation of mangrove habitat, in Oaxaca. Moreover, agriculture and cattle farming continue to threaten the natural habitat in Oaxaca as well as in the Mexican states of Guerrero and Michoacán.
Types and Severity of Threats
Illegal hunting of wildlife threatens the biodiversity of the South Pacific coast mangroves. Native villagers have extensively hunted many species of aquatic birds. Logging, both commercially and locally for fuelwood, is also widespread in the region, which deforestation leads to loss of the mangrove associations and instability of the communities they support. Water pollution severely affects the plant and animal populations that inhabit lagoons and mangrove communities. The introduction of exotic species such as blue tilapia (Oreochromis aureus) alters the ecological relationships among native organisms in the mangroves, and the extraction of wildlife could lead to progressive loss of biodiversity. All of these threats are accelerated and compounded currently by the continual increase in tourism. Development to meet the needs of tourists is occurring and thus waste is increasing elevating pollution levels and further disrupting the mangrove ecosystems.
Management of the mangrove communities throughout the South Pacific coast is needed; deforestation rates should be especially controlled to avoid the quick loss of mangroves. Special attention should also be placed on the regulation of pollutants that are thrown to the coastal ecosystems (estuaries, mouths of rivers, lagoons and mangroves), to avoid poisoning and death of important plant and animal species.
Justification of Ecoregion Delineation
Classification and linework for all mangrove ecoregions in Latin America and the Caribbean follow the results of a mangrove ecoregion workshop and subsequent report.

I have been looking for the same recipe for about 5 years too and delighted to find it again as it's a great cheesecake - it steals the show every time!
I seem to remember it being a recipe published in an edition of Time / Life magazine around 1965.
The correct recipe is the first one in the list of recipes posted by Charles (159795). Simple list of ingredients but well worth it.
P.S. I always have trouble with the baking temperature and tend to brown (burn!) it too much in the first stage. Any advice for a fan oven would be greatly received.

Like Diana, I fondly remember a cheesecake made with both cottage and cream cheese. The version I ate and then subsequently baked had a pineapple topping. I think the topping involved draining crushed pineapple, thickening the juice (probably with cornstarch) and then recombining the two to top off the cheesecake.
I can't wait to recreate this recipe based on the ones on this website. I lost the recipe ages ago and everyone I mentioned it to over the years never heard of a cheesecake made with this combination of cheeses. I'm sure they'll be delighted when I serve it to them!
Sweet dreams...

First I would like to say, HI, I'm new.
Second, I would like to explain my problem.
A while ago, maybe a year ago, I found a recipe for a cheesecake online. I have made it twice since and both times It came out perfect, I received rave reviews from family and friends. I had the recipe saved on my PC.
Well..... about 2 months ago, I reformatted my PC and forgot to save my recipes. So, I lost it. Though I had not really thought about it... until now. I want to make my cheesecake! So I looked on the internet, hoping to find the recipe, but no luck. So i figured i would ask somewhere, and found this forum. Figured it was as good a shot as any.
I don't know what I am hoping for, since I'm sure there are a billion recipes for cheesecake on the internet, but.... This recipe made cheesecake from scratch and
the ingredients that I remember are:
Cream Cheese
Sour Cream
Cottage Cheese
Lemon juice
corn starch?
the recipe also told you how to make a topping
corn syrup
It was a very basic cheesecake I think, nothing too fancy, but very good.
It was very rich and tasted great. I think it was called "ultimate cheesecake" or something like that... I dunno.
So finally what I am asking is.. does anybody know where I can find this recipe (doubt it, what are the chances?) OR (more likely) does anybody know of a similar recipe (with the same ingredients perhaps) that makes a great, rich cheesecake?

All arrows should be carried safely in a covered quiver. Covered quivers are a convenient and easy way to carry your arrows, giving you quick access while protecting the broadheads and preventing injury. Certain types of quivers can also protect both the arrows and fletching from damage.
Safety first! A wooden arrow cannot handle the extreme pressure of a compound bow. It could shatter, causing damage to the bow and possibly injuring someone.

Investigators are still not sure whether reports of an armed man at one of Colorado Springs' most famous tourist attractions were real or a hoax.
Police flocked to Garden of the Gods around 5:30 p.m. Sunday after a visitor reported seeing a man get out of his car wearing a bullet-proof vest and carrying several guns. The park was shut down for a couple of hours while officers tried to find the armed suspect.
But police were unable to find any trace of a man matching the description the caller had given. Inside the only car police could find resembling the caller's description, officers found a group of surprised and confused people, none who were armed.
Officers say that without a license plate number, there is no way to track this individual down. They tell 11 News that unless they receive more information, they have no choice but to close this case.

New versions of Palladium's Baggy (below) and the Pampa Hi (above)
05 Oct. 2012
Design collaborations are a proud tradition of Palladium, now the boot brand has announced their latest partnership is with the premium streetwear label Billionaire Boys Club (BBC) around the style icon Pharrell Williams.
Presenting two models in an urban camouflage look, the strictly limited Boot Collection for Men will be available in Palladium's online shop and in selected stores from November 1, 2012.
The collection consists of two classic Palladium models: Pampa Hi and Baggy. Their modern spotted camouflage-style reminds of the roots of French brand Palladium whose shoes have already been proven at the feet of the Foreign Legion. The progressive camouflage comes from the hand of the renowned Japanese designer, Sk8thing. Made of high quality suede, along with thick rubber soles and a cushioned foot-bed; the boots shall offer ultimate comfort. Other features include the BBC logo on the tongue and the Astronaut, Billionaire Boys Club's mascot, on the foot-bed. The boot styles will retail at €109.95 - €129.95.
Barney Waters, Vice President of Marketing at Palladium, explained the background of the cooperation: "After working with Pharell [Williams] last year for our anthology film 'Tokyo Rising', which was a BBC production, it seemed like the logical decision to also do a product collaboration. The camouflage print that BBC has developed immediately catches the eye and is a perfect tribute to our beginnings, as we have equipped the army with durable shoes."

Dust Release (塵遁, Jinton, Viz: Particle Style) is an advanced nature kekkei tōta, an advanced version of kekkei genkai, which is created through simultaneous use of the earth, wind, and fire natures. The techniques of this nature initially form as a small three-dimensional object (e.g. a cube, a cone, etc.) composed of chakra that forms between the user's hands. When the technique is released, the form expands and surrounds the target. This nature allows the user to manipulate molecules, giving them the ability to disintegrate anything on a molecular level within the boundaries of the three-dimensional form.
Dust Release techniques seem to require a certain amount of time when preparing the three-dimensional object, making it possible to prematurely halt the technique before it is completed, but once it's finished, the technique can be fired with astonishing speed. The hands also play a crucial role in preparation of techniques, interfering with the user's arms can hinder the technique.[1][2] Dust Release techniques also appear to be rather chakra-taxing.[3]
Only two known shinobi are currently capable of utilising this chakra nature: Mū and his student, Ōnoki.
- Like the Lava Release and Magnet Release, the Dust Release has more than one user with no apparent blood-relation to each other.
- It's possible that these techniques are not genetic, as Ōnoki stated that Mū passed the secrets of Dust Release on to him.[4]
- Dust Release shares the same romanisation as Swift Release.

They were mean, misleading and unrelenting. And now the 2012 political ads, approved by one or the other candidate, are thankfully gone from the airwaves.
TV audiences are relieved, but local TV stations will miss the political advertising revenue.
Among the biggest winners in Tuesday's election were broadcasters in swing states like Colorado, where political ad spending was heaviest.
The 2012 presidential race was good to local TV stations' bottom lines, but it wasn't a record-breaker.
"The Denver market received approximately $77 million in political advertising in 2008, which was the high-water mark and a year that included a Senate and a Presidential election," according to a knowledgable local TV source who requested anonymity. "In 2012, we are estimating the political dollars spent in Denver to be around $67-$68 million and in the state to be around $86 million."

If you disregard the ads for ballot initiatives and isolate the ads for the two presidential candidates, the industry source said, the total is closer to $48 million to $50 million for the Denver market.
Colorado ranked fifth in the nation for snaring ad dollars, according to a Washington Post report citing Kantar Media, with $71 million spent on TV time for political messages — most of them negative —split evenly by the Democratic and Republican sponsors.
Only Florida ($170 million), Virginia ($149 million), Ohio ($148 million), and North Carolina ($97 million) drew more money for local TV ad time.
Denver in particular saw a bounty in the presidential race. Some $58 million was spent in Denver on 54,044 ads, according to the Washington Post's Kantar research. In Colorado Springs, some $9 million was spent on 29,898 ads.
If you feel like you personally witnessed every one of them, you're not alone.
Swing states saw double-digit upticks in spot TV advertising not reflected in the otherwise depressed ad market. The total ad dollars spent on the two candidates nationally: $396 in support of Barack Obama, $472 million in support of Mitt Romney.
By Kantar's estimate, 85 percent of the Obama ad budget went to negative ads while 91 percent of the Romney ad budget went to negative ads.
The timing was consistent throughout the country. Ad spending began in early spring and dropped off around the time of both Parties' nominating conventions. The exception was when Colorado saw a precipitous drop in ad spending following the July 20 Aurora theater shootings, as both sides pulled back in the midst of the tragedy.
The pace of the ads in the 10 most hotly contested states picked up, peaking just before the election. Earlier in the race, Denver was the No. 2 market for political advertising in a national race on pace to reach $1 billion, according to an NBC News analysis of data provided by ad-buying firm SMG Delta.
For the week ending Nov. 4, Colorado TV stations took in $13.9 million in the political ad race, ranking fourth behind Florida, Ohio and Virginia.

Every kitchen garden should include these three heirloom tomatoes, perfect for salads, sandwiches and pastas. All three are indeterminate—for multiple harvests across the growing season—and we've included heirloom varieties that ripen both early and late, to extend the enjoyment all summer long.
Yellow Pear: Cherry-sized, pear-shaped tomatoes with a sunny yellow color and a sweet, juicy flavor that lends itself to perking up a fresh summer salad. Kids love them.
Brandywine Pink: Vining variety produce big boat-shaped fruit (up to 1 1/2 lb.), with firm, beefsteak texture and sweet-tart flavor. Great for slicing onto burgers. Late-season ripener.
Early Girl: Fast-growing, early ripening red vine tomato, bursting with classic tomato flavor. We love them on BLTs and in caprese salads.

|ヨタカ Yotaka
|Naruto Episode #179
|Appears in
|Voice Actors
Yotaka (ヨタカ, Yotaka) is a ninja from Hoshigakure.
He is able to use the Mysterious Peacock Method and could support Akahoshi's techniques by offering him his chakra reserves. He also managed to kill the third Hoshikage alongside Shisō, although this most likely happened because they caught him off guard. He could also quickly recognise that he is stalked by someone.
Part I
Hoshigakure Arc
He and Shisō both assisted Akahoshi the assassination of the Third Hoshikage. When the Leaf ninja were summoned to Hoshigakure to protect the meteor, Rock Lee and Tenten were suspicious of them and did a stakeout until being discovered. After Akahoshi kidnapped Sumaru, he sent Shisō and Yotaka to fetch the Konoha ninja to help Akahoshi fight Natsuhi.
He, Akahoshi, and Shisō later found where the meteor is hidden and ran afoul of Naruto and Natsuhi. Akahoshi absorbed the chakra of Shisō and Yotaka. Shisō and Yotaka recovered after Akahoshi recovered the star. Shisō and Yotaka tried to get Akahoshi to give up, but Akahoshi ignored them. When Akahoshi fused with the star, Shisō and Yotaka were among those hit by Akahoshi's out of control chakra. After Akahoshi was defeated, Tsunade mentioned that he, Akahoshi, and Shisō will be subjected to harsh punishment.
- In Naruto: Shippūden the Movie, at the start of the film as they are burying Naruto, a Konoha ninja bearing a great resemblance to Yotaka can be seen behind Lee and Neji.

WASHINGTON - If Mitt Romney is going to change the trajectory of a close race that is bending in President Obama's direction, his best opportunity will be during 90 minutes on a Denver stage Wednesday night.
Obama has opened a modest advantage over Romney since the political conventions ended last month, especially in the battleground states. But as the presidential rivals prepare to face off in the first of three debates, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll shows Obama with vulnerabilities and Romney with assets - even on the question of whether Americans have become too dependent on the government.
The question: Can the Republican challenger seize on those openings? If he fails - and he admittedly has struggled since clinching the GOP nomination in the spring - his path to victory over the final four weeks of the campaign becomes much steeper.
"The vast majority of viewers tune in to these debates to cheer their candidate on; they've made their decision and want that decision confirmed," says Mitchell McKinney, an associate professor at the University of Missouri who studies presidential debates and political communication. But there also will be viewers who are only "weakly committed" to a candidate "and still need some persuading."
Almost eight in 10 Americans in the USA TODAY poll say there's nothing either candidate could say or do in the debates that would change their minds about their vote. Still, one of five say the debates could sway them - including 24% of Obama supporters and 18% of Romney supporters.

Cold Silence
Here is the origin of that quote, the part you're referring to starts at about 5:45 on this video. I've included the complete lyrics below the video as well. Hope this was helpful. ;)
I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them fall away
Mildewed and smoldering. Fundamental differing.
Pure intention juxtaposed will set two lovers souls in motion
Disintegrating as it goes testing our communication
The light that fueled our fire then has burned a hole between us
We cannot seem to reach an end crippling our communication.
I know the pieces fit 'cause I watched them tumble down
No fault, none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire to
Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.
To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication
The poetry that comes from the squaring off between,
And the circling is worth it.
Finding beauty in the dissonance.
There was a time that the pieces fit, but I watched them fall
Mildewed and smoldering, strangled by our coveting
I've done the math enough to know the dangers of our second
Doomed to crumble unless we grow, and strengthen our
Cold silence has a tendency to atrophy any sense of compassion
Between supposed lovers
Between supposed brothers.
I know the pieces fit. (x8)

Yields 48 3-inch marshmallows
The taste and texture (to say nothing about the all-natural ingredients) of these homemade Easter treats are so much better than the store-bought variety that it would be a shame not to make them from scratch. Though some recipes call for gelatin and egg whites, this non-egg white version is much easier to work with. Not every homemade chick will be perfect, nor will they all look the same. Once they are coated with sugar and the little eyes are in place, they will look adorable.
Line two cookie sheets with nonstick liners and lightly grease. Put the colored sugars in separate shallow bowls.
Pour 3/4 cup of the water into bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with whisk attachment and sprinkle the gelatin over the water. Let sit until the gelatin is moist and plump, about 5 minutes. Add the vanilla bean seeds and salt. (They'll stay on top of the gelatin for now.)
Put the remaining 1/2 cup water, the sugar, and corn syrup in a medium heavy saucepan. Cook, stirring, over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Set a candy thermometer in the pan and increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Boil, without stirring, until the hot syrup is 258°F.
With the mixer on medium-low speed, slowly pour the hot syrup into the gelatin mixture in a thin stream down the side of the bowl (avoid pouring syrup onto the whisk, as it will splash against the sides of the bowl). Gradually increase the speed to medium-high and beat until the mixture is very thick, about 10 minutes. The outside of the bowl will still feel quite warm. It's important to work with the marshmallow while it's still warm—it's difficult to pipe when it's cold and stiff.
Fit a large round tip 1/2- or 2/3-inch (I use an Ateco #5 or #7) into a pastry bag and fill the bag with some of the marshmallow. Pipe the marshmallow into 3-inch-long by 1-inch-wide logs, spacing them about 1 inch apart on the prepared cookie sheets. As you reach the end of a log, keep pressure on the bag and in one continuous motion, lift the pastry tip up and pipe more marshmallow on top of the log going back about 1 inch. Release any pressure on the pastry bag and pull the tip up and out to form a beak. Reload the pastry bag with marshmallow as needed.
Sprinkle each shape with colored sugar, using your fingers to pat the sugar onto the marshmallow to cover almost completely, then set the cookie sheets aside until the shapes are completely cool but still tacky, about 1 hour. Using your fingers and working with one marshmallow at a time, lift the marshmallows from the sheets and roll in the bowl of colored sugars, pressing the shapes into the sugar lightly to cover completely. Return the shapes to the same sheets. Dap a bit of the remaining marshmallow from the bowl onto the flat side of the mini chocolate chips and press onto the shapes to form "eyes." Set the sheets aside until the marshmallows are completely cool and no longer tacky, about 2 hours. Stow in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

- Discuss the importance of corporate culture and the economics of test and failure
- Learn proven test planning methods and techniques
- Learn how to create a customized Master Test Plan or Level-specific plans
- Discuss the issues that affect the test strategy
- Discover a practical risk analysis technique to prioritize your tests
- Discuss methods for measuring the test effectiveness of your organization
- Learn how to create a Test Summary Report to effectively communicate recommendations to stakeholders based on the knowledge gained during the test effort
The Appropriate Test Strategy is Key
Test planning is essential to the success of any testing effort, but what really matters is the thought process used to create the test plan and not the document itself. Communications and agreements reached during the creation of the test plan ultimately determine the success of the testing effort. This seminar focuses on how to achieve a consensus on important test strategy issues such as resource allocation, scheduling, risk prioritization, exit criteria, automation, etc.
A Proven Approach
Some organizations will need very formal plans, while others will need very little documentation, but all need some type of plan. The session uses the IEEE 829 test plan template as a basis for creating a customized test plan appropriate to the project and organization using it. Additionally, attendees will learn how to use an IEEE 829 Test Summary Report to summarize results, make recommendations, and identify process improvement opportunities.
Who Should Attend
This course is appropriate for Test Managers, Test Leads, and experienced testers who are tasked with developing a testing strategy for their organization.

Most people won't even notice this programme is on, or bother to watch it.
I just think we need to keep a sense of perspective.
So keeping a sense of perspective...........on the eve of the 2013 competition, I reckon the following is a pretty accurate statement of the financial situation:
Leeds - not a problem
Wigan - not a problem
Warrington - not a problem
Saints - not a problem
Wakefield - not a problem
Catalans - not a problem
Hull FC - not a problem
Bradford - no longer a problem
Salford - fingers crossed should no longer be a problem
Huddersfield - ? should not be a problem, the owner seems happy to keep on investing
London - ? more of an existential issue
Widnes - ?
Cas - ?
Hull KR - ?
With Widnes, Cas and KR seemingly the weakest links.
Overall, I think that the league is in a fairly decent position going into the new season and you would expect the other issues/ weaker clubs to be worked through over the course of this season and into next year.

Project Description
Carbonfund.org supports this project because it offers public education and financial incentives to household consumers for the adoption of Compact Fluorescent Lightbulbs (CFLs). CFLs have a longer life and are more efficient when compared to traditional incandescent bulbs. CFLs also generate excellent light output.
The New Zealand Compact Fluorescent Lightbulb Project began in 2005 by following a Clean Development Mechanism methodology to distribute an initial 62,000 CFLs. Between 2005 and 2007, the Project reduced nearly 75,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions and now has the goal of expanding its distribution to 3 million CFLs to reduce an estimated 1 million tonnes of CO2.

[Getting Started with ADOBE PHOTOSHOP LIGHTROOM 4] [♪♪] Hi and welcome. My name is Julieanne Kost. [Julieanne Kost - Senior Digital Imaging Evangelist] In the next few minutes we're going to take a look at how to share our images not only through Lightroom 4's web gallery but also by using Publish Services and by using email. Let's get started. I have a collection here in the Library module, and I'm going to scoot over to the Web module by simply clicking on that module in the Module Picker. There are a variety of different kinds of web galleries that we can make. You can make an HTML gallery or a Flash gallery, and we also have some additional galleries that we ship by default, so for example, this Airtight Postcard Viewer is pretty cool. It kind of lays out all of your images as a postcard. And you can come down here to the Appearance area, and you can tell it maybe that you want a few more columns and maybe you want your photo borders more or less or the padding more or less. And then watch. When you click on an image, it zooms up that image. Click again and it'll zoom back. But you might want to go with something maybe a little bit more traditional, so let's go back to the Layout Style and let's take a look at the Lightroom Flash Gallery. One of the things that we improved in Lightroom 4 is all of these Flash galleries are now color managed. So you can see that when I select a gallery we then have all these additional options here on the right-hand side. Let's take a look at some of the different panels. You can change the site title right here. So if I wanted to maybe call this my Ireland gallery and my collection might be Photography by Julieanne Kost, and then we can scoot down and we can either include this description or we can simply delete it. Just because there is a text entry area doesn't mean that you actually have to enter in text. We can put a contact name here. And instead of actually just putting my name, we could put email me or something like that, give them directions, and then I would just put my email down here, jkost, and that way when they click the email, it would go ahead and link to my email. In the Color Palette area you'll notice that you can change all of the different colors for things like your text and your header and your menu. And in the Template Browser over here, you'll also notice that there are a lot of different templates that already have some of these colors changed. So if you happen to like some of these other templates better, maybe that would be a better starting point. But for now let's go ahead and just move to the Appearance panel. Here we can put the layout either to the left as it is now, we can go ahead and put it scrolling at the bottom, we could do it paginated, or we can do a slideshow only. So you can actually create a slideshow within the Web module in order to post to the Web. We can add our identity plate, which adds either a graphical or a text identity plate up here in the upper left. We can see that I can change that out by either clicking here and selecting one of my presets or going to the Edit menu here and then entering in either whatever text I want or using a different graphic. But for now let's just go ahead and leave it. I'm actually going to turn it off. We have control over our large images and our thumbnail images. To show this, let's go ahead and move back maybe to the scrolling option here, and I'll leave the large image size alone, but let's change the thumbnail size, maybe take that down to medium, so that we can see a few more images at one time down along the bottom. We can also change our image info. Here you'll notice by default that I can show a title and a caption, but we can change that right here, because I might not have entered in titles for my images or captions in my images, because this information Lightroom is getting from the metadata of the file. So maybe instead I just want to show my file name there. And now you can see that that file name appears underneath the image. As far as output settings go, we can determine the quality of compression on those large images, we can decide what metadata we want to include in the file. Of course if we choose to only do the copyright, the file size is probably going to be a little bit smaller. And we can also choose to add a watermark, which you can see down there in the left-hand corner. And we can change that template as well, just like we did the identity plate, and we can use either text or graphics. And we can choose to sharpen all of these images, either low, standard, or high. Once we've got our template all set up, then we go down to the Upload Settings and we go ahead and create a preset with all of the information that we need to upload this gallery to our website. All right. That is the Flash gallery. If we go back to the Layout Style, you'll notice there's also an HTML gallery. The HTML gallery is just going to differ a little bit as far as what options you have. So again, I could go over here and change the site title. I can also change the site title right in line here. So I could put Photography by Julieanne and then maybe change this title here to Ireland 2011 and so on. So I can either change the text, or if I delete the text, then it will just kind of move up my image area next to the text that is there. I can change my contact name like we just saw before, I can add an identity plate, we can change the different colors, I can change the appearance, so maybe in my thumbnail view I want to see more thumbnails. Right now I'm actually looking at a larger image, so let's go back to the index so that we can see the grid there of the index. And you can see I can make that as wide or as deep as I want to, or we can just leave it very small if we think maybe our viewers are going to be on smaller monitors. We can turn on or off these cell numbers, we can add photo borders if we want, and we can change the image pages as far as the size here as well as the photo borders down here. So, lots of things that you can change. We go to the Image Info. That's the same for HTML and Flash. Output settings are the same, and upload settings are the same. The key is once you've created the template that you like, if you want to use this template with other sets of images, then you would save that template in the Template Browser. If you want to save this specific template with these specific images in them, then you would create a saved web gallery. So we'll click on that, and we'll call this Web Gallery Ireland, and we'll save it inside my collection set called Ireland. We'll click Create. And then just like we saw when were in Slideshow or Print or the Book module, when I'm in the Library module and I've navigated to other folders and other collections, if I want to quickly go back to the Web module and view that collection of images, I can just click on the arrow in the Library module and I see that whole project. All right. So that's one way that we can share our images online. Another way we can do that is if we return back to the Library module. We have a variety of different Publish Services. By default we have one set for the hard drive, so if I just want to automatically publish images to my hard drive-- maybe I want to sync them with my phone or something like that-- I can do that by just going here to the Publishing Manager and setting up a Publishing Settings for my hard drive. Today what I'm going to do is I'm going to set one up for Facebook. But we could also set it up for Flickr, and we could find more services online. So if you're using a different method of sharing, you can click there and see if there is software created that will help you share directly from Lightroom to that online service. But for now let's go and walk through the setup for Facebook. Because I've already authorized this account before and then I deleted it, Lightroom knows that, and I've already logged in on my Facebook page, so it authorized me automatically. I want to upload these to a specific album, so I'll go ahead and select one from one that I've already created. I could also create a new album here if I wanted to. I'm going to choose to use the name of the file as the title for Facebook, and I'm going to go ahead--if I update my photos, I'm going to replace the existing title. I also need to give this a description, so let's just give it Demo for right now for my Publish Services. And then I'm going to leave my file naming the same so that my images on disc are the same name as the ones that I publish to Facebook. I'm going to go ahead and say that it can update video even though I don't have any video right now included. I'm going to set my file settings to JPEG, obviously, and then the quality to 80. If I wanted to, I could limit the file size to a specific number, but for now I think 80 is going to be fine. I'll resize my images, and we can choose whatever size we want. Let's say maybe I want to limit this to 600 pixels on the long edge and I want to sharpen them for the screen at a standard amount. As far as metadata, I don't want to include all the metadata. I can limit this to my copyright and my contact information only. One thing to notice is if you do say All or All Except Camera & Camera Raw Info, you can choose to remove the location information, which is really quite nice if you don't want, say, the GPS data to travel along with your images. All right. For now I'm going to set this back to Copyright & Contact Info. And if you want to add a watermark when you export your images up to Facebook, you can do that right here. But I'm going to turn that off for now. Once I've set this up the way I want it, I'll go ahead and click Save, and now you can see that here in my Facebook area I have a publish service, and here is the album. So if I want to take this image from either the web gallery or we could go back through my portfolio and we could select this image and maybe 2 images here and drag them into my publish collection, then when I click on the publish collection, we can see that I have 2 new photos to publish. Well, I want to go ahead and publish these now, so I'll go ahead and click the Publish button. The great thing about Publish Services is that not only does it publish it directly to my Facebook page, but it also keeps track of what I have published so that in the future I don't have to go up to my page and wonder, "Hmm, how long ago did I publish and have I published that image?" Lightroom is going to keep track of that. And in fact, if I make any changes to this image, let me show you what happens. I'll tap the D key to go to Develop, and let's say maybe I want to take a little bit of the warmth out of the sky. I've made a change to the temperature slider, and when I go back to the Library module, you'll notice now that in my Publish Services Lightroom is warning me that I have modified this photo to republish. So if I wanted to republish it, all I would need to do is click the Publish button. Sometimes, though, you might not want to republish. Maybe you made this change for some other reason, or maybe you just added some keywords while you were in Lightroom. If you don't want to republish this, in Lightroom 4 you can right mouse click and come down here to where it says Mark as Up-To-Date, and it kind of overrides the publish settings and it will mark that as up-to-date without republishing it. So just know that that option is available. Excellent. The last thing I want to talk about is just emailing some photographs. So here we can select our images from wherever-- Publish Services, or I could go back up to my collection if I wanted to. The point is you would select the images that you want to email and then you can use the keyboard shortcut Command + Shift + M for mail or Control + Shift + M for mail. I can go ahead and enter in my email, I can type in a subject, and down here I'm going to use this preset so that Lightroom will resize the images for me and save them as a JPEG. We have these 4 different presets here which I think will probably meet everybody's needs, but if you want to create your own preset, you'd go down to Create New Preset. It takes you to the Export dialog box and sets the export to email to kind of help you by limiting your image format to JPEG so you don't accidentally send a 10-megabyte file through email. We could improve the quality here, and we can change the size and everything. So you can customize this as much as you want. For now I'm just going to hit Cancel because I actually like these presets right here. I'm going to use the Large preset, and when I click Send Lightroom will automatically launch my email program and create a new email and attach these 2 files to that email and address it to me and add in the subject, which I misspelled, so we'll just add an O there and then I could click Send. That wraps up 3 different ways that you can share your images from Lightroom, either creating a web gallery or by using Publish Services or by emailing. My name is Julieanne Kost. Thanks for watching. [ADOBE PHOTOSHOP LIGHTROOM 4] [Crew - Kush Amerasinghe, Erik Espera, Karl Miller] [Presenter - Julieanne Kost - tv.adobe.com/evangelist/julieanne-kost] [ADOBE TV]

Few institutions are more informed or authoritative than the World Health Organisation when it comes to global health issues, or so one would presume. Overly simplistic, maybe?
Anyway, it was yet again World Health Day this April 7 although in Tanzania the climax of celebrations to mark the occasion was pushed to Tuesday this week to give way to Easter holidays.
It's hard to say how many people really saw the day come and go or exactly how they marked it. One thing we can say for sure, though, is that whatever celebrations there were in the country were low-key.
Sad indeed, given that the Day's topic this year – Ageing and Health – was most pertinent and was supported by a most relevant slogan: 'Good health adds life to years'.
To illustrate the seriousness of the facts to be found in the Day's theme, the WHO wondered aloud whether humankind was ready to meet the challenges that global ageing poses.
The UN agency argues that ageing concerns us all, regardless of age, sex or standing in society, and that good health throughout life can help older men and women lead full and productive lives and therefore be a resource for their families and communities.
In communities where such members of society are viewed more as liabilities than as assets, and records show that cases of such stigmatisation have no respect for any particular levels of social or economic development.
Policy makers, politicians, youth, older people and all other segments of society are always expected to help World Health Day campaigns become resounding successes.
They can make this come true by, say, supporting the creation of communities that appreciate and acknowledge that age alone does not rule out older people as agents of positive change or deny them the capacity to lead meaningful lives.
Yet, how many policy makers, politicians, political parties, youth groups, community leaders, civil society organisations (including those established ostensibly to add value to the lives of older citizens), etc., really ever remember to support older men and women in genuine need?
Those interested in helping older people out need not go very far searching for ways to do so, as WHO has long pinpointed areas where such help is most needed and how it could be extended for greatest effect and efficiency.
It says there must be age-friendly conditions that facilitate the life-long health and participation of older people, that these people should be guaranteed access to basic health and other needs, and that society ought to incorporate them in nation-building activities as fully as practicable instead of isolating them or treating them as having outlived their usefulness.
The UN agency says: "It is not age that limits the health and participation of older people. Rather it is individual and societal misconception, discrimination and abuse that prevent active and dignified ageing."
It is unfortunate that there are still people yet to disabuse themselves of stereotypes associated with ageing – such as older people are "past their sell-by date" and should be left to their own fate. Unfortunate? No, worse: Tragic!

Sarcophagus (coffin)
Unknown artist, Roman
Sarcophagus (coffin), 2nd century CE
Marble (from Dokimeion)
Trough: 85.7 x 233.1 x 107.6 cm (33 3/4 x 91 3/4 x 42 3/8 inches)
Museum Appropriation Fund 21.074
Ancient Greek and Roman Galleries
Front This is one of only a few sarcophagi bearing scenes of the Trojan War (thought to have occurred in the 13th or 12th century BCE). On the left the Greek hero Achilles fights the bearded Trojan prince Hector. To the right is a scene that follows their battle: Achilles in his chariot drags Hector's dead body around the walls of Troy, while the goddess Athena (the backer of Achilles), Hector's father, King Priam, and Hector's wife, Andromache (seated), watch. These scenes occur in Book 22 of The Iliad, the epic poem about the Trojan War ascribed to the Greek poet Homer (8th century BCE).
Back The decorative elements of a sarcophagus were often chosen for their symbolic value, and used to communicate the personal attributes and values of the deceased. Battle and hunt scenes, like those featured on this sarcophagus, emphasize the deceased's courage and virility. On this side, three cupids are shown spearing a lion and lioness with the assistance of three dogs.
Right Short Side While this sarcophagus cannot be attributed to a specific artist, the structural details of its form and decoration suggest that it may have been carved by an Asiatic workshop. As the funerary art of Asia Minor often emphasized the personality of the deceased by representing him either in glorious action or with noble attributes, the short sides of this sarcophagus can be interpreted as honorific scenes of personal culture and bravery. Here, two youths face each other from either side of a rectangular pillar; the youth on the right receives a lyre with one hand. By alluding to his cultural sophistication and intellect, this scene communicates the social status of the deceased.
Left Short Side It was common for sarcophagi produced within a workshop to have been carved by several artists, each with their own technique and style. These variations often result in a disconnected iconography that is difficult to interpret, as in the case with the short sides of this sarcophagus. On
The fragments of this coffin (sarcophagus) were found in Rome at the beginning of the twentieth century. More than one hundred pieces were reassembled before 1921, when RISD acquired it. This is one of only a few sarcophagi bearing scenes of the Trojan War, thought to have occurred in the thirteenth or twelfth century BCE. At left, on one of the four sides decorated in high relief, the Greek hero Achilles battles the bearded Trojan prince Hektor. To the right, the goddess Athena (patroness of Achilles), Hector's father King Priam, and Hector's wife Andromache (seated) watch as Achilles in his chariot drags Hektor's corpse around Troy's walls. These scenes occur in Book 22 of the Iliad, an epic poem ascribed to the Greek poet Homer (eighth century BCE).

ST. CHARLES COUNTY, Mo. (KSDK) - The widow of a man killed on the job last summer has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the construction company her husband worked for and the City of St. Charles.
KCI Construction Co. Inc., a St. Louis-based company, was the project's general contractor and was cited with a serious violation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration in February. Bridgeton-based Coatings Unlimited Inc. was also cited by OSHA for 14 violations.
Debra Webb filed the suit in the Circuit Court of St. Charles County. It states Coatings Unlimited, Inc. and KCI Construction Company violated OSHA rules.
Stevie Webb, Sr., 53, of House Springs, died in August 2012 inside an 18-foot-deep vault manhole while building the Boschertown sanitary sewer lift station.
He was exposed to methyl ethyl ketone and collapsed and died.
Webb was the father of two children, who are also plaintiffs in the lawsuit.

Volkner's Raichu was Volkner's main Pokemon. Strangely he didn't use it during his battle with Ash.
Raichu was presumably Volkner's starter Pokemon and they'd been together since Volkner was a young boy. As a Pikachu, Raichu was once involved in a battle with a powerful Houndoom used by a Pokemon Poacher. The Poacher appeared as well in the same episode as the flashback, which was Flint Sparks the Fire, and revealled that battling Volkner and Flint all those years ago had made him have a change of heart and he decided to stop Pokemon poaching.
Raichu was often seen outside its Pokeball. It was shown to be very affectionate towards Flint, being about as close to him as its trainer was, and jumped into his arms for a hug. Despite being Volkner's main Pokemon, Raichu merely watched its masters battle with Ash instead of participating in it.

PostgreSQL 9.1 Open Items
From PostgreSQL wiki
Project Planning
See the PostgreSQL 9.1 Development Plan.
- standard_conforming_strings -- readiness of drivers and applications
- Review "Long Term" list of items from PostgreSQL 9.0 Open Items
Code Issues
- do latches have memory-ordering problems?
- DO blocks leak memory
- raise protocol version number
- conversion from integer literals to money type
- fix attinhcount tracking
- generate_series boundary issue and prototype patch
- No longer need to check synchronous_standby_names and max_wal_senders at startup
- either remove write_location completely, or revert the change that broke it
- original report of problem with write_location (but the other issues in that email are now fixed)
- sync rep and shutdown
- rhaas says: fast shutdown now works, smart shutdown is still a problem
- pg_last_xact_replay_timestamp limitations
- replication timeout
- Typed-tables patch broke pg_upgrade
Resolved Issues
- Walreceiver crashes in AIX
- bug of the hot standby feedback
- GIST rewrite vs. pg_upgrade
- replication/README needs to be updated
- backend wrongly waits for sync rep even though max_wal_senders = 0
- reload of the configuration file should not cause the server to end unexpectedly
- Fix ecpg preprocessor regression
- Once sync_standbys_defined becomes true, there's no way for it to ever become false again. That can't be right.
- backend no longer needs to wait for replication when synchronous_standby_names is set to and configuration file is reloaded.
- pause_at_recovery_target needs to be added in recovery.conf.sample
- BUG #5842: Memory leak in PL/Python when taking slices of results
- hot standby feedback message needs to be explained at protocol-replication.html
- consider renaming ident to peer authentication on local connections
- serious problem by multiple backups
