Question by jerry deleo on 12/14/2013 - 8:23 pm
"The Spyder brand runs true to size for kids. We have provided a size chart with a ton of measurements so that you can check to see what size would fit your child best. With just the 2 measurements you gave, he could either be a size 4 or size 5. So you may want to check the size chart for all of the other measurements to see which one would be best. "

Refurb nightmare
This review is from: GE W1200 Black 12.2 MP 3X Optical Zoom Digital Camera
Pros: Got it for $29.99 on BlackFriday deal. Very impressed at first with camera, especially considering the amount paid. Decided to get the GE X500 refurb deal as well for $89.99 as my hands are big which makes control of this camera harder. Gave this cam to wife who took it with her on a trip to Alaska.
Cons: So after having taken about 30 test photos fine at home, upon arrival in Alaska, camera was dead. Brand new 1.5 Volt Alkaline batteries lasted for maximum of 5 minutes, 1.25 Volt 2900mAh fully recharged batteries did not even sustain enough juice to retract the lens. All signs lead to battery shortage, which might have been original reason why this was a refurbished item.
Other Thoughts: Started GE waranty process, which at least was relativly painless via 1-800-730-6597. Should be able to squish original box (thankfully kept all original items) enough to where it will fit in small flat-rate USPS box. The camera experience before it broke is worth $4.95 to see it getting fixed. Will post a 5-star rating follow-up if the repair/replacement survives 90-days to offset this 1-star post.

This review is from: GE W1200 Black 12.2 MP 3X Optical Zoom Digital Camera
Pros: Exceeded expectations for a 30 dollar camera promotion. I like the dial wheel on top of camera instead of having to switch modes thru menu only. Pictures so far seem good and in focus but with any point and shoot, a steady hand is always good. Camera has lots of features and is fun to use.
Cons: I could nit pick but for 30 dollars it's more than I expected and does the job....good job GE
Other Thoughts: I bought this camera to carry as a backup...... I now have a GE Kitchen Blender and a GE camera....go figure....

Good Camera
This review is from: GE W1200 Black 12.2 MP 3X Optical Zoom Digital Camera
Pros: I just got this today ,needed a still shot camera to post some pics in a forum to sell a RC truck ,needed some detailed photos , and this camera did great , easy to use ,anytime you access a function an icon comes up on the LCD screen to show you the changes made , has a slide scale in the screen to show instant zoom setting, and i haven`t tried all the other functions yet but for $43 plus ship this is well worth the money, and i never worry about things breaking ,I`ve been a NewEgg customer for a long time and they have the best customer service and return policy i have ever seen online.
Cons: From my limited use so far and from basic visual inspection i see no cons to speak of yet.
Other Thoughts: A person with very large fingers may find some controls small and hard to operate.

News 12 at 11 o"clock
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) -- A South Carolina man admits he faked
his own death to escape drug charges.
Butch Nesbitt had spent more than six weeks on the run after his
empty 14-foot boat was found beached along the South Carolina
coast. Authorities finally tracked him a friend's home in western
Indiana, where they found him with his girlfriend and bags
containing about $57,000 in counterfeit cash.
After his boat was found, agencies, including the Coast Guard,
spent days looking for him at a cost of about $170,000.
In a jailhouse interview with The Associated Press, the
58-year-old Nesbitt says he orchestrated his "death" to escape
drug charges. In his words: "It was either that or face prison the
rest of my life, is how I saw it."
Nesbitt's sister says she found out he was alive through text
messages she received Tuesday night from his girlfriend. One of
them read: "Me and B in jai."
Nesbitt says he regrets putting his family through the ordeal.

fic- "Marie Is I"
Expand Messages
- ------
title: Marie is I.
author: Rodlox.
summary: Rogue recollects.
Spoilers: X1, X2.
takes place at the end of the first X-Men movie.
Marie's POV.
archived at http://www.geocities.com/rodlox/X2/Is_i.html
This morning I'd wished him luck, luck in finding what he was looking
for. He asked me to keep watch over his dog tags.
I can't sleep. It's night out. I leave the room, and nobody says a
word to me. I know the whispers they've spoken about me; they who
think I can't hear them.
Down the hall I walk. Down the hall, down the hall in my uncle's
house, passing the painting of a menorah by the top of the stairs.
Down the long corridor, wishing for Stryker or some SOB to turn the
heating up just a notch, that's not too much to ask, is it?
I stop, just briefly. Who's Stryker? And when was there a menorah
painting in my uncle's house? Professor Xavier had told me that my
mutation was to absorb life, powers. So what gives?
What's up, bub?
Most curious.
I resume walking, down the hall some more. Turn at the corner, tuning
out the sound of repair work further down the dam, ignoring the sound
of dogs barking. Down the stairs, saying hi to my uncle as he readies
things for my cousin's bat mitzvah.
Across the open space, the little open space where you can turn in any
Up and out, get out of bed, you lazy -
I open the door, stepping outside, falling into lockstep with those
behind me and in front of me. Great, its raining. Keep moving, you
Slavs! I know not to wince or back away when the dogs bark, even when
they jump up. They're on leashes, I'm in a cage.
At least I'm not underwater.
I keep walking. Down the steps, saying hi to the pretty receptionist,
the comely girl signing people up for military service, for college
From somewhere, maybe just in my skull, a song plays. Something that
I'd heard once. Well, that somebody had heard once...
I wish that you would just leave
But he had left. I had left. Somebody left. Somebody always leaves.
Because your presence still lingers here
Two scenes merged before my eyes, three scenes, four. Brick walkway
with cold mud, then a forest's fallen leaves, the a football field --
the twenty yard line.
And it won't leave me alone
It was what I saw. Its what I feel. Feeling like the rain, cold and
wet and pattering everywhere like a horde of little kids. Like those
toddlers at the zoo, back when I was five, enjoying a visit to Warsaw.
Cold and wet, it melts on my cheeks, but lingers on my clothes. The
ragged shirt I wear, the only shirt I have left to me, has become an
unnatural white.
The snowfall doesn't make it any easier to walk, to trudge out at
this late hour. Left shoe sticks in the mud, and my foot doesn't slip
out of it. I fall, throwing my hands down to keep from cracking my
skull. At least the ground isn't so jarringly hard right now.
It hurts. The pain just gets to me. My body knits itself back up. Or
it should be. Why isn't it? I stare at my hands, scraped and nearly
raw. Damn that roughed-up brick, that ill-placed stone! I should be
all fixed up by now.
Its cold. I hate the cold. Not that I'd tell anyone that. My body
fixes problems like gangrene and frostbite, but that just means I get
them over and over again. Cold and cold and cold.
I wouldn't say anything. Speaking up just invites pain, invites the
SS to pummel me. Bullies. Creeps in the locker room. Bullies, I all
have known them.
These wounds won't seem to heal
They should be healing, they should. Why aren't they? There some sort
of legalese to explain this? Dude, this ain't good at all.
This pain is just too real
Hurts. No amount of healing, however much I try, can ever stop the
pain. Physical and whatnot. `Does it hurt?' the kid asked me once.
Only one answer to that: `Ev'ry time.'
There's just too much that time cannot erase
However much I can't recall, however much stuff I can't remember, its
done. What's done is done. Nobody can bring back the dead.
And I cannot forgive for what has become of the dead. `Give them a
chance,' Charles asked me. `I cannot,' I'd told him. Too much has
been done. And I've no doubt that much more is about to be done, and
not just by me or thee.
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
I. Me. We. Thee.
Is this always to be?
Shall it be this way from now until the end?
`Let us make man in our own image' says the pastor in my daycare. I
am one and many, or am I otherwise?
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
I couldn't sleep, so I left the room and started walking. You're why I
couldn't sleep, Logan, Erik, Paul. And I.
The usual walk into a line-up. Even the starlit night offers neither
comfort nor variation enough to soothe me.
Used to be, I would go out to empty fields, lie down, and see how
many stars I could recognize. When I was little, I would pretend that
Orion and the others could hear me, I'd hold conversations with them.
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
A shadow falls on me, from a figure backlit by searchlights. All the
guards are watching, their guns at the ready.
"Marie?" she asks me. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," I say to Mrs. Grey -- or is it Mrs. Summers? I want to
know. I don't care to know. Who cares?
Who cares about what happens?
Your eyes, they look haunted, teach'. You okay, Yoriko? You look like
you've seen better days.
But even the best of days inevitably come to an end.
These wounds wont seem to heal
She held my arm, leading me inside, sitting me down on a chair. She
sits on a desk. "Is there anything you'd like to talk about?"
Don't ask about the war. Better to let them think you're ignorant
about the raging conflict, the conflaguration that's engulfing the
Sitting in an office, just one door removed from the outside. A thin
wall, brick, immovable. Where's an Allied bomb when you need it most?
Lift the weights, I'm told. Move the iron so it stays between these
points. Stop the bullet.
This pain is just too real
"We're just going to run a few tests," I'm told. At least you're a
nice doc.
More tests. And if I perform well, they'll keep my family alive,
spare my friends the horrors of the fate that befalls everyone else.
Special tests, like the ones I underwent last week, when the whole
team had drug testing. Just in case.
But you still have all of me
Took blood, x-rays, calipers and bone saws, `fun' with magnets, and...
The list goes on and on, pain and pain is all I recall of those
tests. I don't like needles, and its no wonder.
Shoving Mrs. whatever-her-name-is aside, I barrel past her, slamming
into the door that opens for me. They'll shoot me, I've no doubt of
that. But I'm too valuable to kill.
I can't be killed.
Now I'm back. In the open, beneath the vault of heavens. Letting the
snow fall on me, the rain, the leaves.
Nobody bothers me.
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
And with the same quickness that they struck into me tonight, the
images fade away. Four becomes three becomes two becomes one. Becomes
me, is I.
Logan's gone biking. Erik's been arrested. Paul...is hopefully out of
the coma.
Faded. Voices in the background.
And though you're still with me
Though they're quiet now, they're all still here. In me. Part of me. I
I always will be.
I've been alone all along
The one unchanging thing.
The End.

The Eats: New Saigon Restaurant, 1529 6th Ave., 623-0212. Vietnamese with special vegetarian menu.
The Deets: Navigating the transient-tourist-solicitor-retail obstacle course that is Westlake Center can drum up a serious hunger (pun intended, street bucket drummer dude). For vegetarians who find themselves in the area, keeping the grumbles at bay is a significant challenge--you can snack on a veggie dog at Dog in the Park or Cyber Dogs, but few places around offer up a decent array of vegetarian entrees.
Yet along comes New Saigon, nestled right at the corner of 6th and Pine, with handy signage marketed direct to the herbivore: a sandwich board and neon sign advertising their "vegeterian" [sic] food. Despite the "Engrish," with your shopping bags full and your tank empty, the promise of a fresh, vegetarian Vietnamese lunch can be too powerful a lure to resist.
The Beets: But if you can, resist! New Saigon is pleasant enough--just down a flight of stairs is the subterranean dining room, kept tidy by unforgiving florescent lighting that necessitates the constant orbit of roving bussers. But this place exists to meet one purpose and one purpose only: to service the downtown lunch rush and any miscellaneous tourists and shoppers who amble in throughout the day.
Service is quick and sufficient, but lost in translation. I asked if tofu accompanied the Vegetarian Vermicelli Bowl and was told it comes with bean curd (aka tofu). What was delivered instead was a simple bowl of rice noodles, fried onions, carrots, and shredded lettuce with three crusty, possibly re-fried, egg rolls on a side plate. No tofu, no pizazz--just a bunch of noodles in a bowl and a salad dressing that smelled a lot like fish sauce.
The Tweet: New Saigon is forgettable; vegetarians, rest your weary legs a few blocks up at the always-awesome, 100% vegetarian Cyber Dogs.

I'm trying to figure out when it would be appropriate for a class to have both static and non-static functions. AKA:
$obj = new ClassA;
$something = ClassA::doStaticStuff();
Note: This example is done in PHP, however the question is language agnostic .
It seems that if you have a class that is meant to be instantiated, any functions that can be called statically, most likely belong in another class.
Is there any viable cases where I would have a class that used static AND non-static members?

Heart Disease Health Center
Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump - Topic Overview
What is an intra-aortic balloon pump?
An intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is a mechanical device that helps the heart pump blood.
This device is inserted into the aorta, the body's largest artery. It is a long, thin tube called a catheter with a balloon on the end of it. If you are hospitalized, your doctor may insert an IABP. Your doctor will numb an area of your leg and thread the IABP through the femoral artery in your leg into your aorta. He or she then positions the IABP at the center of your aorta, below your heart.
Recommended Related to Heart Disease
An enlarged heart (cardiomegaly) may have various causes. But it's usually the result of high blood pressure (hypertension) or coronary artery disease. An enlarged heart may not pump blood effectively, resulting in congestive heart failure. Cardiomegaly may improve over time. But most people with an enlarged heart need lifelong treatment with medications.
Read the Enlarged Heart (Cardiomegaly) article > >
The doctor will use an X-ray machine during this procedure to help accurately position the IABP.
Why is it used?
An IABP might be used to stabilize a person who is in the hospital for acute mitral valve regurgitation or severe heart failure.
An IABP is only used for a short period of time (hours to days). A long-term treatment will likely be needed, such as valve surgery or the insertion of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD).
How does it work?
The IABP reduces the workload on your heart, allowing your heart to pump more blood. The IABP is placed inside your aorta, the artery that takes blood from the heart to the rest of the body. The balloon on the end of the catheter inflates and deflates with the rhythm of your heart. This helps your heart pump blood to the body.
The IABP improves the function of only your left ventricle, since this is the chamber that pumps blood into your aorta. Here's how an IABP works:
- After your left ventricle has finished contracting, the balloon inflates. This inflation helps increase blood flow to the heart and the rest of the body.
- As your left ventricle is about to pump out blood, the balloon deflates. This deflation creates extra space in the aorta, allowing the heart to pump out more blood. This decreases the workload on the heart.
What are the risks?
- IABPs cause some side effects. An IABP can cause an infection in your bloodstream if it is used for too long. The balloon may overinflate and tear your aorta.
- IABP treatment is also inconvenient. You must lie extremely still in your hospital bed if you have one of these devices in place.

Walgreens Improves Server Uptime By More Than 50 Percent And Saves Millions In IT Costs With SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
WALTHAM, Mass., April 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Novell today announced Walgreen Co., the nation's largest drugstore chain, moved its mission-critical applications from UNIX* to SUSE® Linux Enterprise Server from Novell. With more than 7,500 stores nationwide and a sizeable IT infrastructure, Walgreens sought a more flexible, scalable and cost-effective platform to support its burgeoning growth. Previously, the company ran many of its business-critical applications on a UNIX operating system that was reaching end of life. Walgreens recognized an upgrade would have required a substantial investment, so it decided to move to a virtualized Linux-based environment to speed server deployments and lower total cost of ownership. After evaluating several platforms, Walgreens selected SUSE Linux Enterprise Server based on the operating system's lower support costs and superior performance, reliability and built-in virtualization capabilities.Walgreens is now running its proprietary pharmacy application, as well as certain third-party applications, in a virtualized SUSE Linux Enterprise Server environment on a mix of IBM* and HP servers. The virtualization capabilities of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server enable Walgreens to consolidate servers and add new ones as needed. In addition, by migrating business-critical applications from UNIX to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Walgreens has reduced the time required to set up new stores and can now build multiple servers at once, decreasing server setup time by more than 50 percent. Using proprietary scripting, along with YaST®, the installation, configuration and systems management tool included in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Walgreens now has a cleaner, more streamlined process for rolling out IT systems in new stores. About SUSE Linux Enterprise The next-generation platform for the open enterprise, SUSE Linux Enterprise is the best-engineered and most interoperable platform for mission-critical computing, from the desktop to the data center. For more information on SUSE Linux Enterprise offerings from Novell, visit www.novell.com/linux.

Dutch Socialist Leader Says Doubtful Euro Will Survive Crisis
The Dutch Socialist Party, leading in most of the polls ahead of elections Sept. 12, is doubtful whether the euro will survive as the economic crisis may only get worse amid a wave of austerity measures.
"Whether we get everything resolved, I am not sure," Emile Roemer, 49, the party's leader told a press conference in Arnhem, Netherlands, yesterday. "I can't tell whether we will be able to preserve the euro but I do hope it because the misery will be bigger if we fail to do so."
The SP, as the party is known, is leading with 34 seats, ahead of caretaker Prime Minister Mark Rutte's Liberal Party with 33 seats, according to a TNS-NIPO survey published Aug. 15. The poll surveyed 1,384 people between Aug. 12 and Aug. 14 and has a margin of error of 2.3 percentage points.
The Socialist Party wants the Netherlands to meet its euro budget deficit limit of 3 percent of gross domestic product by 2015 --not 2013 as targeted by the present government -- and it prefers a broader mandate for the European Central Bank. More government spending is needed to help the economy while drastic budget cuts will harm growth, according to the party's program.
Wrong Way
"The pace of austerity measures implemented throughout Europe doesn't work, it is the wrong way," Roemer said. The northern European countries need to grow in order to help boost the economies in southern Europe, he said. "We also want to get the budget in order for the long-term but if you cut that much you make society weaker," he said.
Elections in the Netherlands were called after Rutte submitted his Cabinet's resignation on April 23 as Geert Wilders's Freedom Party withdrew support for spending cuts and tax increases. After that, investors demanded as much as 79 basis points of extra yield to lend to the Netherlands for 10 years rather than to Germany, the highest premium in three years.
Since April 23, the extra yield, or spread, that investors get for holding Dutch 10-year bonds instead of similar-maturity German bunds has narrowed 43.2 basis points to 35.8 basis points. Demand for the securities rose after Rutte's Liberals agreed with the opposition on a package to meet the European Union's budget deficit limit.
Economic Contraction
The fifth-largest economy in the euro area may contract by 0.75 percent this year even as the economy unexpectedly expanded in the second quarter. Gross domestic product rose 0.2 percent from the first quarter, when it increased a revised 0.2 percent, national statistics agency CBS in The Hague said Aug. 14. Unemployment increased to 6.5 percent in July from 6.3 percent a month earlier.
Almost three years after the debt crisis erupted in Greece, Germany's Angela Merkel, as leader of Europe's largest economy, is facing calls from Italy and Spain to pool debt to bring down bond yields, from Greece to back an easing of its austerity timetable and from the European Central Bank for politicians to take the lead in fighting the crisis. The Dutch elections take place the same day as the German Federal Constitutional Court rules on the 500 billion-euro ($616 billion) European Stability Mechanism.
Greece has required two bailouts totaling 240 billion euros since the European debt crisis erupted in the southern European nation and is now grappling with measures to qualify for more disbursement. European leader have struggled to contain the debt crisis that's roiling the 17-nation region and also pushed Ireland, Portugal, Cyprus and Spain to seek help.
'Take Responsibility'
Roemer, a former school teacher, said throwing more money at Greece is not the solution. The country needs to get its fiscal policy in order and bring corruption under control. "If they meet certain conditions, then I will take my responsibility," Roemer said, when asked whether he would support another aid package to Greece.
"The development of Europe should be about people and not only about more room for big multinationals and the financial sector with all the risks that come with it as we've seen the past few years," Roemer said.
Roemer took the helm of the party in March 2010 and was a member of the city council of Boxmeer, 87 miles south of Amsterdam, from 2002 until 2007. He was elected for parliament in November 2006. His party is four seats ahead of Rutte's VVD at 36 seats, according to another poll published yesterday by Maurice de Hond. A survey by polling company Ipsos Synovate gives the VVD the top spot with 35 seats, six more than the Socialists. That poll was published Aug. 17.
It has taken an average of almost three months to set up a coalition in the Netherlands since World War II while the formation of the Rutte cabinet in 2010 took four months.

DELAFIELD, Wis. ( Stockpickr) -- At Stockpickr, we track daily portfolios of stocks that are the biggest percentage gainers and the biggest percentage losers.>>5 Breakout Trades Under $10
52-Week Range: $0.91-$2.71
Thursday's Volume: 609,000
Three-Month Average Volume: 324,722 From a technical perspective, ARTX spiked sharply higher here back above its 50-day moving average of $1.83 with strong upside volume. Market players should now look for a continuation move higher in ARTX in the short-term if it can manage to take out Thursday's high soon with decent upside volume flows. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in ARTX as long as it's trending above Thursday's low of $1.74 and then once it sustains a move or close above Thursday's high of $1.90 with volume that hits near or above 324,722 shares. If we get that move soon, then ARTX will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $2.16 to $2.24. Any high-volume move above those levels will then give ARTX a chance to tag its 52-week high at $2.71.

Update page 3: Has anyone successfully removed 4-5am night feed by sending in DH?
Yep, dh would go in and rock her back to sleep... it took 2-3 nights and then she started sleeping through for the most part. She didn't fuss or anything either, just went right back to sleep, thats how I knew she wasn't hungry. I'd say she sleeps through 5 of 7 nights.
Thanks all! You give me hope!
I don't mind since it was 6am and I plan on offering the breast at morning wake up anyway, but explained to DH that LO will be mad a couple days and he has to be a little more persistant, try and calm LO in his room, offer milk, and if he doesn't want it set him back in his cot. Oh well let's see what happens tomorrow!
I started the night weaning by giving a bottle (rather than nursing) with a combo of breatmilk and water. Each night I would increase the amount of water in the bottle till he ended up just pushing the bottle away. It only took 3 or 4 nights. When it got to 2 ouces of breastmilk in the bottle with the rest being water, he wasn't interested anymore. He started sleeping better once he was night weaned but it's still not perfect. If he wakes during the night, I just rub his back.
I love lamp!
We successfully cut out all night waking by having my husband go in instead of me. Basically, as soon as I thought LO was big enough to sleep through the night (when he was just using me as a pacifier and not really nursing at night anymore) I started sending DH in instead. It's exactly like you said: LO was royally pissed for a couple of nights, but then he gradually started sleeping in longer stretches once he realized it was going to be dad and not me.
When he wakes up at night now DH is still the one to go in to him and soothe him. Even now it takes him longer than it would take me, but LO does calm down for him eventually. You just need to explain to DH that it's okay if LO cries and he needs to be persistent. At first my DH would panic, too, and after just a minute of the baby wailing he'd bring him to me and say, "He needs the boob!" I had to basically give DH a gameplan: explain to him why exactly it had to be him and not me, give him some articles (or message board posts ) explaining why nightweaning would go more smoothly if the breastfeeding parent wasn't available, and then give him a specific timeline. I told him that he needed to try for 10 minutes, and that if LO was still screaming at the end of 10 minutes then he could come and get me and I'd nurse. We very rarely hit that 10 minute mark.
A man and a woman had a little baby:
S arrived 2/21/12
And now we're expecting another:
Looking foward to meeting our "Pumpkin Pie" due 11/08/14
DH checks on lo at night. If she sees me, she won't go back to sleep w out bottle and an hour of cuddling.
DH can pop her pacifier back in her mouth and we're all back to sleep in minutes.
I highly recommend sending in daddy.

Rural development program has great potential for rural job creation nationally
Lyons, Nebraska - A Center for Rural Affairs report released today examines USDA's Rural Microentrepreneur Assistance Program (RMAP), which was the only new rural development initiative to receive mandatory funding in the 2008 Farm Bill, and the extent to which grant recipient organizations provide microenterprise development services on a national scale.
"This is a rural development program that has demonstrated real potential for creating jobs and economic opportunities in rural communities across the country, and even in the current budgetary climate, is a worthy investment in America's future," concluded Bailey.

Specifically, the collection was undertaken to determine whether drug test results could provide important predictive information on pretrial misconduct over and above that provided by other variables, thus supplying more data for judges to use in making bail and pretrial release decisions. Data about defendants and their criminal and drug use history were gathered. In addition, defendants were subjected to urinalysis drug testing procedures to determine the presence or absence of drugs in the urine. Both the drug testing methods and subsequent results were subjected to reliability and validity testing procedures. The independent variables in the study include demographic attributes such as defendant's sex, race, birthdate, marital status, and employment, charge-related attributes such as current offense, arrest, and court disposition, prior criminal record of the defendant, current and past drug use, and drug testing results. The dependent variables pertain to the defendant's pretrial performance and include items such as failure to appear and any rearrests.

Soups are easy to make it batches, roasted vegetables make a meal with giant couscous and puy lentils make salads a more substantial option. If you can't always make your own packed lunch, think more carefully about what you buy and pick the healthiest option there is, then customise it with extra fruit and vegetables, like the addition of sliced avocado or a sweet potato you can pop in a microwave.
This fabulous puy lentil salad with roasted vegetables and goats' cheese recipe (pictured) is packed with antioxidants, iron and calcium. The key is to plan ahead and throw your ingredients together in a tupperware the night before.
For something a little less ordinary, why not try our Vietnamese charred pork baguette with pickled veg – it's great if you've had a barbecue over the weekend and have leftover pork or if you're feeling super organised, why not make the pork the night before so you have a divine lunch ready for the next day.
For a low-carb lunch option, our tuna and three-bean salad is the perfect option as it's really filling without leaving you feeling weighed down. The same goes for a tuna nicoise salad – the egg and avocado perfectly compliment one another!

Hyundai Tackles Marauders For A Touch Down With 'Gaspocalypse' Super Bowl Ad
Canada commercial released before the game at www.YouTube.com/HyundaiCanada MARKHAM, ON, Jan. 29, 2013 /CNW/ - For the second year in a row, Hyundai Auto Canada Corp (HACC) is dialing up the entertainment value of the Super Bowl by producing a unique TV commercial which targets Canadian viewers.As North America's premier sports and entertainment event, the Super Bowl attracts a huge audience. Some 50 percent of Canadian households tune-in for the Super Bowl commercials as much as the game itself. But due to the practice of signal substitution which sees US Super Bowl commercials replaced with Canadian commercials, Canadian viewers are robbed and must settle for a stream of current Canadian TV commercials. With some exceptions, however. "We are thrilled to be one of the few Canadian companies committed to creating a unique commercial for the 2013 Super Bowl. There is no bigger stage than the Super Bowl to make a statement about one of our products and its advanced technology," said John Vernile, HACC's Vice President of Marketing. "We decided to invest in this commercial to entertain our viewers but at the same time, to inform them that we have a world-class hybrid sedan." Taking a different tack this year, Hyundai will not keep Super Bowl lovers waiting until game day but is posting the commercial online today. And to maximize entertainment value and help stoke conversations around office water coolers and chat rooms, two versions with different endings will be released for the benefit of the online community. Canadians can now view the two different cuts online at www.YouTube.com/HyundaiCanada or www.Facebook.com/HyundaiCanada in advance of this Sunday's broadcast. The 60-second TV spot, created by HACC's advertising agency Innocean Worldwide Canada, features the Sonata Hybrid in a post-apocalyptic chase scene with an epic, cinematic feel. Director Benji Weinstein (Steam Films) assembled a crew of Hollywood's best stunt drivers and stunt coordinators whose credits include Kill Bill, Transporter 2, The Amazing Spiderman, The Green Hornet…to name just a few. World renowned cinematographer Amira Mokri (The Fast and the Furious) brought the action to life. It's an action packed, engaging 60 seconds with a fun ending, all attributed to a key Hyundai feature - fuel economy. The commercial is expected to air during the highly-anticipated Half Time Show. "The Super Bowl has evolved to become an all-round entertaining event for the viewers. But the Half Time Show historically gathers the whole family in front of the television, so it only made sense to air our commercial when the most viewers are expected to tune-in," said Vernile. "I have no doubt that Canadians will appreciate that Hyundai took the extra step to 'up' the entertainment factor of the Super Bowl broadcast in this country with our own, unique ad."

Starbucks has always had many novel ways of suctioning the money straight out of your wallet. There's the coffee, to start. The snacks. The Starbucks-approved book and CD sales. And for years, the shops operated under a series of different complicated pay schemes for those who wanted to use their laptops while dropping thirty bucks on a latte, a scone and the newest Jack Johnson CD or compilation of Tuvan throat-singing.
But because nothing in the Starbucks universe can ever just be simple, in addition to the free one-click hook-up, the company is also offering all sorts of partnership content across its new Yahoo-driven "Starbucks Digital Network," offering access to premium (meaning paid) content from providers like the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, iTunes, ZAGAT and Yahoo.
Yeah, Yahoo. I know.
But anyway, on this auspicious day, we just wanted to say a quick congratulations to Starbucks on finally catching up with the rest of the world on this whole internet thing. So welcome to 2005, Starbucks! We're so glad you could finally make it.

Recent Knife/Tool Reviews
Light My Fire Swedish FireKnife
I received this knife as part of the 10 Essentials Reviewer of the Month prize pack. I split an A4 page holding the page with one hand and started fire very easily with the blunt side of the knife (don't laugh) to some toilet paper. The problem lies in the softness (purity maybe?) of the magnesium rod. No matter how slow I scraped the rod I couldn't get a pile of shavings as they burnt instantly. So lots of sparks but no pile to make a difference when in a difficult situation with wet tinder. Overall… Full review

Morakniv Companion Knife
Perfect for anyone who needs a sharp fixed blade knife for basic camp kitchen and basic bushcraft chores. Backpackers will especially enjoy how lightweight this knife is. After collecting all manner of knives I have fallen in love with the Mora for basic outdoor chores. The 4.1" carbon blade is a very usefull size without being too short for many tasks or too long and too awkward to carry. Folding knives have their place but a fixed blade will always be easier to deploy and use. A fixed blade knife… Full review
Opinel No. 8 Folding Knife
It's also an historical knife and the type dates back to at least the Civil War. I've used mine for Civil War and 1916 Punitive Expedition living history. It's a good knife to have and I also carry one in my ground-pounder search and rescue pack. Full review
Schrade Frontier SCHF37
This is a good quality knife that's better for bushcraft and not your best choice for ultralight hiking. When I first received this knife my initial impression was that the blade was about the length I like at 6 inches (165 mm) cutting edge and it had a nice choil, but it was wider though at 1.25 inches (33 mm) edge to spine and 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) thick than I was used to and then there was the weight at 18 ounces. The rest of the system, hone, sheath and fire steel, brought the total weight to… Full review
Opinel No. 8 Folding Knife
All around a great knife, simple and nice to look at. The knife is easy to open—not as easy as some, it does require two hands. Its simple design is what makes this knife so appealing and nice to look at, it has a very pretty real wooden handle and is simple to unlock and lock with a collar that turns to lock the blade open or closed. These famous peasant knives from France have a single high-carbon steel blade that folds into a hardwood handle (Beechwood I think). Being a high carbon blade… Full review
Sven 21-Inch Blade
Ever see a camp gadget that you just had to have? If not, then check this saw out, by far the best saw on the market. Had mine for over two years and it has never let me down. I first saw this saw on a backpacking trip to Panthertown Valley. I used my swiss army knife for years. I normally go by the "burn nothing bigger than your wrist" rule. But after seeing this saw in action, I knew I had to have one. It easier to use than a traditional bow saw. At 1lb 1oz it's lighter than a bowsaw. And the… Full review

Spyderco Vallotton Sub-Hilt Folder
Simply put, beautiful. This knife is well elegant! They used the finest materials and the fit and finish are what you would expect in a custom. It's almost hard to use this knife because of its beauty. I had the pleasure of owning this knife for awhile before I hit financial problems and I will buy it again! If you're on the fence about this one, just buy it. It really is worth every penny and you can always put it up for sale on the secondary market and it will be snatched up.

Wacker Neuson SE
|Wacker Neuson SE Patent applications
|Patent application number
|IMPLEMENT HAVING ROTATIONAL SPEED REDUCTION AND OPERATING METHOD THEREFOR - An implement comprises an internal combustion engine having a throttle valve. At least one handle, the inside of which is provided with a gas lever likewise in a pivotal manner, is attached to a housing surrounding the internal combustion engine. The minimum distance between the gas lever and the handle is defined by a stop. When the operator lifts the implement by the handle, the position of the gas lever also changes. Even when the gas lever is fully depressed, only a part-load position is achieved at the throttle valve. In this way, effective rotational speed limitation is achieved.
|Hammer and/or Hammer Drill Having Relubricating Device - The invention relates to a hammer and/or hammer drill acting as a breaker, having a drive, a hammer mechanism driven by the drive, and a crank device disposed in the force flow path between the drive and the hammer mechanism and coupled to an element of the hammer mechanism for transforming a rotary motion of the drive into an oscillating translation motion of the element of the hammer mechanism. A collecting device for collecting lubricant is provided above the hammer mechanism relative to a vertical operating position. The collecting device may be a collecting tank open at the top and defined by a partition of the housing and a separating floor. A connecting rod of the crank device may extend through a cutout in the separating floor. Lubricant collects above the separating floor can be delivered again and again into the interior of the housing by a delivery element.
|IMPLEMENT HAVING A HYBRID DRIVE - An implement has an internal combustion engine and a hydraulic system that can be driven by the internal combustion engine for bringing about a working movement. Furthermore, an energy accumulator is provided for the storage of energy in an accumulation phase in which the output delivered by the internal combustion engine is greater than the output currently required by the hydraulic system, and for the delivery of energy in a discharge phase in which the output delivered by the internal combustion engine is smaller than the output currently required by the hydraulic system. The energy accumulator thus serves for balancing output peaks and valleys such that the internal combustion engine may always be operated within an optimum range of rotational speeds.
|IMPLEMENT HAVING AN OVERRUNNING CLUTCH - An implement having a drive, a drive element that may be driven by the drive and that is disposed in an axially moveable manner and is coupled to the drive element, and an overrunning clutch disposed in the drive or in a torque flux between the drive and the drive piston. If the drive has a movement that is slower than that of the drive element, the overrunning clutch is in an idle state, in which the clutch interrupts the torque flux between the drive and the drive element, thus decoupling the movement of the drive element from the drive torque of the drive. In this manner, the drive element may move more rapidly, for example during the return movement thereof, than would correspond to the movement forced by the drive.
|PNEUMATIC-SPRING PERCUSSION MECHANISM WITH A VARIABLE ROTARY DRIVE - A percussion mechanism that has a motor, a drive piston which can be moved to and fro in a guide cylinder by the motor, and a percussion piston. A coupling device is active between the drive piston and the percussion piston, via which coupling device the movement of the drive piston is transmitted to the percussion piston. The motor can be configured as a reluctance motor or as a synchronous motor. The motor can be actuable in such a way that different rotational speeds of the rotor can be generated within a percussion cycle and/or from percussion cycle to percussion cycle.
|SOIL COMPACTING DEVICE - A tamper as a soil-compacting device having a combustion engine, a soil contact element, and a motion conversion device for converting a rotary movement of the combustion engine into an oscillating linear movement of the soil contact element. Furthermore, a clutch device for connecting and interrupting the force flow between the combustion engine and the motion conversion device is provided. In addition to the combustion engine, an electric motor with a rotor and a stator is provided, wherein the operator can switch between the combustion engine and the electric motor. The rotor can be arranged directly on a clutch bell of the clutch device.
|OUTSIDE CONCRETE VIBRATOR HAVING AN OPERATION DISPLAY - The invention relates to an outside concrete vibrator for mounting to a concrete formwork, comprising an oscillation exciter that can be driven by an electric motor, a carrier that supports the oscillation exciter and that can be mounted on the concrete formwork, and at least one electric supply line having a power supply leading to the electric motor. A detection device inductively detects a power state in the power supply. The detected power state can be displayed via an optical signal via a display device.
|APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DETECTING DAMAGE TO A MACHINE - An apparatus for detecting damage to a machine that is excited at a previously known frequency by a vibration exciter, including an acceleration sensor for recording a current amplitude spectrum of an upper mass. A previously known amplitude spectrum of the upper mass is stored in a memory device. The current amplitude spectrum is compared with the previously known amplitude spectrum in a comparison device. If the comparison device determines that the spectra differ from one another, a corresponding deviation signal is generated and is output via a display device for informing the operator in order to inform the latter of possible damage.
|Soil Compacting Device with Automatic or Operator-Intuitive Adjustment of the Advance Vector - A vibrating plate comprises a vibration generator device, which can be controlled in such a manner that the direction of the action of force can be set at a number of locations, particularly in more than two locations. In addition, an advance adjusting device is provided for controlling the vibration generator device whereby the direction of the action of force is set in a position in which a maximum possible advance of the vibrating plate is reached. The direction of the action of force can be changed according to a change in the surroundings of the vibrating plate, particularly to the slope and/or the hardness of a subsoil to be compacted by a soil contact plate. Alternatively, the direction of the action of force can be changed according to the wishes of the operator.
|SOIL-TAMPING DEVICE HAVING ADAPTIVE DRIVE REGULATION - A tamping device comprises a drive motor which, via a spring mechanism, drives a soil contact element for compacting the soil. A detection device records the speed of rotation of the drive motor. An evaluation device evaluates the dynamic response of the speed of rotation and recognizes an aperiodic response. A control device prompts a change in the speed of rotation of the motor if an aperiodic response has been recognized.
|VIBRATION PLATE HAVING BELT DRIVE HAVING MULTIPLE DEFLECTION - A vibration plate has an upper mass having a drive and a lower mass which is mounted so it is elastically moveable relative to the upper mass. The lower mass has a vibration generator and a ground contact plate. The drive is coupled by a belt drive to the vibration generator. The belt drive has a drive disk which is provided on the drive, an output disk which is provided on the vibration generator, and a belt which circulates between the drive disk and the output disk. To this end, at least two further deflection rollers are provided for guiding the belt.
|VIBRATOR FOR A GROUND COMPACTING APPARATUS - A vibrator for a ground compaction apparatus includes two parallel shafts which are coupled to one another be rotatable in opposite directions and on each of which is at least one unbalanced mass is disposed. A phase adjusting mechanism is used for modifying the phase angle of the two unbalanced masses relative to each other. In order to do so, the actual phase angle of the two unbalanced masses is detected with the help of proximity sensors or the like. A regulating device compares the actual phase angle with a desired phase angle that is predefined by the operator and controls the phase adjusting mechanism in such a way that the difference between the actual phase angle and the desired phase angle is minimal.
|Drilling and/or Striking Hammer with a Lubricating Device - Disclosed is a drilling and/or striking hammer that includes a lubricating device having a lubricant reservoir and a volume of lubricant contained therein. The lubricating device conveys lubricant to at least one a transmission system within the hammer's housing, a percussion system, and/or a tool holder at a variable dosing or flow rate. The dosing or flow rate varies as a function of tool stress which can include use intensity and/or temperature. A flexible tube extends between the reservoir and the lubricated component(s). At lease part of the flexible tube vibrates with the lubricated components during use and modifies a viscosity of the lubricant therein, based on tool use intensity. A pressure generating device can pressurize the lubricant, helping convey the lubricant to a targeted area for lubricating movable parts.

In a rather unprecedented move, Sony Ericsson has released an alpha build of Android 40 for their Xperia line of smartphones. The build is installable on unlocked handsets and is intended for use by advanced developers and experienced users. While the ROM contains many of the new features found in Ice Cream Sandwich, it is not intended for everyday use. Many features remain absent, including the ability to place phone calls. Here is the full list:
- Google Mobile Services (GMS) apps are not included (for example, Gmail, Google Maps, etc.).
- Modem is turned off and SIM card will therefore not be recognised (this also means you can't make any phone calls).
- Bluetooth™ is turned off.
- Wi-Fi® is turned off.
- ANT+ is turned off.
- FM-radio is turned off.
The build is intended to demonstrate ICS running on Xperia devices as well as provide developers with a bit of a jumping off point. It is also Sony Ericsson's way of saying "we are working on an update, but it's complicated" and "we are making a big effort to show our support of independent Android developers and the open source community." You can find the downloadable ROM, instructions, and other details at the source link below.
