Sometimes, you have to treat yourself and your family to a delicious treat.
Desserts that are made with natural organic foods like fruits are tasty and good for you too.
This is a family recipe and it was created by our uncle Aladin who was a chef by nature.
Let's take a look at the health benefits of these organic foods.
It is rich in amino acids and has a low glycemic index, which means it doesn't cause blood sugar spikes like artificial sweeteners and table sugar. Organic coconut sugar is a great alternative to table sugar and sucralose, which have been shown to contribute to diabetes and obesity.
It is high in vitamin C, which helps strengthen the immune system, and also flushes out toxins by acting as a diuretic. The acids in organic lemon juice help regulate the pH levels of the body. Lemons contain compounds called limonins, which have been shown to fight many types of cancers.
1 cup coconut sugar (you can use less and adjust to taste)
2 cups filtered water
1 tsp of lemon zest
1 cup lemon juice
In a saucepan bring the water and coconut sugar to a boil until it thickens (about 3 to 4 minutes)
Let cool for 10 minutes
Add the lemon juice and lemon zest
Pour in a sorbet dish
Freeze overnight
Optional: You can whisk every 4 hours to give a more textured feel.
Serve in glass bowl and garnish with fresh mint and lemon zest
Make sure to use organic foods and filtered water in this recipe
Enjoy with your family!
We recommend Aquasana as a reputable source for water filters.

Speakers have included four U.S. presidents and numerous other national and international figures. Moody Coliseum is undergoing expansion and extensive renovation, providing many new and improved features that include new premium seating, renovation of the entry lobby and concourses and state-of-the-art upgrades. This project will revitalize Moody Coliseum as a preeminent collegiate sports arena and multi-purpose event facility, preserving its historical character while adding the most modern technological enhancements. Construction began in August 2012 with the expansion of the building's north façade followed by renovation of the interior space and infrastructure upgrades. The renovated Moody Coliseum is scheduled to reopen in December 2013.
- Renovated main entry lobby
- Expanded concourses with raised ceilings
- Club seats, loge boxes, private suites and group suites
- New event space, offices, team locker rooms and meeting space

Porsha Williams, one of the cast members of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," was served with an arrest warrant in connection with an altercation. The actress and singer attacked co-star Kenya Moore at the taping of the "RHOA" reunion show.
Porsha Williams surrendered to the Fulton County Sheriff's department on Wednesday, April 16 according to a report from CNN. Williams's mug shot was taken and then she was released on $2,000 bail. Williams, 31, is charged with simple battery against co-star Kenya Moore, which is a misdemeanor. The attack happened during the taping of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion on March 27.
Though Moore called the police on the day the alleged attack happened, the former Miss USA did not complete a witness statement immediately. Kenya told the officer responding to the call that she was unable to fill out the statement at the time because she was needed to be on a movie set. The officer advised Moore that she could call when she had time to complete the witness statement.
Kenya Moore and Porsha Williams spent much of the last season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" locking horns over a number of issues. During the season, Williams, who is now divorced from husband Kordell Stewart, was infuriated when Moore, who has never been married, offered her marital advice
A clip of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion show has been posted on the Bravo website. Kenya Moore is shown antagonizing Porsha Williams using a scepter and a bullhorn. Using the bullhorn, Moore tells Williams, "What I will not do is let you talk over me, okay?" Cast member Cynthia Bailey is seated between the two remains calm, but Williams's reaction is to roll her eyes at Moore.
Later in the clip Porsha calls Kenya a "slut from the 90s" and Moore tells Williams to shut-up and waves a scepter at her and pulls out the bullhorn again. The two women then get up off the couch and go toe to toe as host Andy Cohen attempts to intervene. Bravo will not air the brawl that took place at "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" taping. Part one of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion will air on Sunday, April 20 Bravo.

Microsoft announced Wednesday that the Xbox One will receive a system update next week followed by a second update in March. These updates will be the first steps toward addressing customer wishes since the console launched last November.
The first update will arrive Feb. 11 and will give users the ability to see and manage the storage space on the Xbox One. This also includes the ability to manage the download queue so that users can choose which game or app to download first. Apps and games will also be broken out into separate lists to make them easier to use and manage as well.
One common complaint from those that own an Xbox 360 was the lack of a controller battery life indicator for the Xbox One. That will be included in the Feb. 11 update along with the ability to plug in and use a USB keyboard.
Meanwhile, the March 11 update will coincide with the launch of Titanfall and will contain "contain many new features and improvements" which includes updates to the multiplayer and party systems. The party system has been a thorn in the side for Xbox One users since the console's launch as it has just not worked as smoothly and easily as the Xbox 360.
You can follow Scott via Facebook, Twitter, RSS feed or email alerts for all the latest game news and deals as well as the weekly Furious Fourcast podcast/videocast. All game news on Examiner can be followed at the Game On Facebook page and Twitter feed.

The information age is in full swing, and with it comes an enormous amount of data. Not only does each business transaction generate new data, social media, mobile devices, smart utility meters, and the "Internet of things" contribute to the sheer volume of data being generated at any given moment. From social mentions of a brand name to in-store location data to the number of calories burned -- and beyond -- data is rapidly accumulating. Companies that can tap into that data can understand their markets better, make smarter decisions, and respond to changing market conditions faster (Source: http://www.informationweek.com/big-data/big-data-analytics/10-powerful-facts-about-big-data/d/d-id/1269522).
But what is big data? The term has come to mean data sets that have grown in size and complexity to the point where they can no longer be processed using standard database management tools. The most important characteristics of big data are the "four Vs": velocity, volume, variety, and value.
- Velocity refers to the need for data to be processed quickly.
- Volume refers to the sheer size of the data that needs to be processed as well as its ability to grow.
- Variety refers to big data's diversity. For example, big data can come from multiple sources and in a variety of formats
- Value refers to the potential insights that big data contains.
Thus, simply having a lot of data doesn't necessarily mean it's "big data." If that data doesn't need to be processed quickly, isn't necessarily growing exponentially, doesn't necessarily come from a variety of sources, or doesn't necessarily contain any valuable insights, it's may just be standard data that can be handled using traditional data management tools (Source: http://blogs.cio.com/big-data/18595/what-exactly-big-data).
On the other hand, if three or four of the "Vs" are present, you may need more advanced data management and analytical tools to understand it. According to InetSoft, advances have been made both in data mining software tools and hardware, allowing for more robust handling of big data (Source: http://www.inetsoft.com/business/solutions/talking_about_big_data/). At the same time, when analyzing big data or mining insights from it, you can only see a "snapshot" because "data is always coming into an organization at a constant rate."

From anywhere in SoCal you're only about five hours, or less, away from Las Vegas. Yet finding an eco-friendly way to get there can easily make you feel like you're trying to get to the other side of the ocean instead.
According to the AAA Trip Calculator, even one of the more fuel efficient cars, such as a Corolla, can use about $100 worth of gas getting you to The Strip. So, what are your green options? Well, there aren't a whole lot, but there are a few.
1) Rent a Hybrid: There aren't many out there to rent, but if you plan in advance you might be able to find a Prius, or something similar. This could raise your MPG to 40 (up from the 30 MPG average that a Corolla would give you), and make the trip a bit more eco-friendly.
2) Carpool: If you're sharing a car (hybrid or not), then this reduces the carbon footprint for each of the passengers in turn. True you're still using the same amount of gas, but you're sharing that overall with everyone in the car, thus spreading out the footprint a bit. Example: four people in a car using three tanks worth of gas is much better than, two cars with two passengers each, using 6 tanks worth of gas for the same trip.
3) Take the Bus: Taking a train from SoCal to Vegas isn't really an option yet, but there are several companies that have popped up since the recession, offering express trips to Vegas. Which one you choose will depend on several factors, not the least of which is the convenience of departure location.
-The Megabus offers two departure locations, L.A. and Riverside, which will get you to Vegas. This is much more convenient for those of us in the I.E. but they do offer fewer departure times than some of their competitors. You're generally looking at either morning or evening as your only options. However, the best feature of the MegaBus is its price, because if booked early enough you might get your ticket for as little as a $1.
-The other bus companies mainly leave from L.A., but do have more departure and arrival times than the Megabus. However, the prices are usually the same, regardless of when you buy a ticket. A plus for last minute bookings perhaps, but still a bit far for Inland residents. Why back up, before heading forward after all.
3) Rent a Van/Bus: The final option is much more expensive, but offers the best of both options 2 and 3. There are businesses that rent out, or charter, a variety of large party vehicles. Now remember it will cost a pretty penny, but you still get the benefit of the smaller carbon footprint, while maintaining the convenience of leaving whenever you want. Obviously this one only works well with large groups, but if you're traveling with 6 or more, then this might be the way to go.
However you get there, remember that arriving is only the first part of the eco-challenge. When it comes to the environment, what happens in Vegas, won't necessarily stay in Vegas. So, don't forget that it's still important to follow through with your normal green routine. Turn off the lights when you leave a room, make sure to recycle when you can, and conserve when possible. Having fun, can still be eco-friendly, even in Sin City! Enjoy the trip everyone.

TC TO MARGARET A. CARLYLE ; 8 March 1839; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18390308-TC-MAC-01; CL 11: 38-41
Chelsea, 8th March, 1839—
My dear Mother,
I am right glad to have this opportunity for writing to you again. It is a weary time since I heard a word from yourself now,1 a long time since I even wrote anything direct to you: of late days I have been of mind to write a line to you even without any Italian news to go along with it; but here this morning comes the expected Epistle from Naples,2 and now I have a call and command to write. How have you been all this time? What are you doing; what becomes of you in this bitter March weather; what is all Scotsbrig and Annandale doing? These are questions which daily arise; but to which I can shape no answer except by hope and by guess. Many a time does the shine of your little up-stairs Fire in the winter night rise clear before my imagination, among the little specks of Light and Life (the dearest of them all to me) that the great canopy of Darkness covers; and I wonder with myself what you are doing even then. I can know only that both of us are under One's keeping, and trust always that He will do all things well. But really, dear Mother, you must write to me, write without loss of time.
I sent a Letter to Mary,3 in which was one inclosed for Alick. There had been a Letter for Jean before that, in answer to one she had sent me; the only articulate tidings I have had for months. Mary sends a Newspaper to indicate that her Letter arrived; which is good so far. I wrote also to Jenny at Manchester; but from her too I receive nothing for a long while.
Jack's situation at Naples seems to be altogether favourable. He prospers in his work; he likes the people, they like him. I think I mentioned to Alick, in writing last,4 that we had tidings here (thro' the Sterlings, who probably had it from Dr Hume the Physician that recommended Jack) of all going right in that matter of Naples, how the Duke's people were well satisfied with their Doctor, &c &c. In short, we have every reason to be content in respect of our poor wandering Doil, and to hope that all is proceeding in a very good course for him. He gets no Dumfries Papers, it seems, tho' I have duly despatched a Courier weekly, ever since it ceased to come to you; some eight or nine now, I think I will write to him tomorrow, however; all the faster for that disappointment. It is a long way to come and go, and no delay should be made. Did Alick ever write yet? I fear, not. Tell him that he is a lazy fellow to all appearance, and that I mean to have my revenge of him yet.
Jane had a cold last time I wrote, but it is gone now, and she is not unwell at all considering what weather we have. This week past it has been bitterer with frost snow and east-wind than we ever had it in winter; and today still the world is all lying white in a coat of snow, and the venom not out of the air yet. How do you fend [manage], dear Mother, in your still worse climate? Did you ever get yourself a set of right woollen spencers? I hold good "fleecy-hosiery" to be one of the wholesomest things; one way or other one should insist on being warm enough, and not rest till that is attained. Jane complains continually in these days of the bitter cold; her Mother and she sit down below, blowing the fire, endeavouring to fence themselves against the inclement season, and rarely venture out. Mrs Welsh had a bad cold for three weeks, but in spite of the weather she is nearly got out of that again. She seems to indicate that she is not to stay long with us; her Brother is poorly in health at Liverpool, she wishes to be there again that she might be of some help to him. Hitherto she has taken far more quietly to London than on any other occasion, and seemed to enjoy it more,—or if that is too strong a word, to suffer from it less. We are very quiet in general; yet the other week, Jane audaciously got up a thing called soiree one evening; that is to say a Party of Persons who have little to do except wander thro' a room or rooms, and hustle and simmer about, all talking to one another as they best can. It seemed to me a most questionable thing for the Leddy this; however she was drawn into it insensibly, could not get retracted: so it took effect; between 20 and 30 entirely brilliant bits of figures;5 and really it all went off in the most successful manner: at midnight I smoked a peaceable pipe, praying that it might be long before we saw the like again.6 There is enough of that at this season without seeking for it; enough and to spare. That day I wrote to Alick I was bound outwards to dine at 8 o'clock (the real hour was nearer 9), and wrote to him in doleful humour on that account. For the same reason too I forgot your Examiner, which I had carefully folded up and laid under a big Book to smooth it; on Thursday morning, lifting the Book, I was astonished and shocked to find the Examiner still there! I doubt you would be astonished too why it did not come. As for the Dinner itself I got thro' it, tho' not without damage sensible for several days after. It was one of the most elevated things I had ever seen; Lords, Ladyships and other the like high personnages, several of them auditors of mine in the last Lecturing season. The Lady of the House, one Lady Harriet Baring, I had to sit and talk with specially for a long long while; one of the cleverest creatures I have met with, full of mirth and spirit,— not very beautiful to look upon.7 Between 12 and 1 I got home to my bed. There is but little good for me in all that; only a small proportion of good rather expensively purchased; wherefore I endeavour to escape it for most part.
They told you, I have no doubt, how my brave American Friends had sent me another lot of money (£100) for the poor Revolution Book. It was really a magnanimous feat. Fraser tells me he too has money for me which he hopes "will be satisfactory"; we shall see that, before long, for I understand him to be getting ready his books for a settlement with me; being very desirous for a second edition with me, which will be needed soon. The "Miscellanies" we hope will be here before long, probably in a month or so (tho' that is merely guessing): I imagine I shall make a little penny out of them too, by and by. One ought to be thankful for keeping mall in shaft8 on any terms.— But now the grand object of consideration is, what are the Lectures to be, and when and how? I cannot yet say what, but I am thinking of it daily; I have decided meanwhile that there are to be but six, this year; it seems also that the best time for commencing will be Tuesday April 23d; for three weeks after that, I shall probably be busy! So soon as I have drawn up any Prospectus and got it printed, I will send you a copy,—tho' you cannot attend me, I doubt! On the whole, I am not nearly in such a flutter about the thing, as I was in last year; thro' [sic] probably it will be bad enough when it actually arrives. However, we do hope to be borne thro' as before "with an honourable through-bearing."9
I would ask innumerable things about you, about Scotsbrig, Ecclefechan, Dumfries, Annan, and Annandale generally; I want to know so many things, and do know almost nothing of it all. How is poor Isabella? I hope, she has got on her feet again; it will have improved Scotsbrig and its business for all of you.10 And Jamie, how does he find his crop turn out, how does he get along this winter generally? I have no tidings from Alick either; how his meal-trade and other business prosper. Had not his Jenny too to be unwell?11 I hope she too will be borne thro' honourably.
A man came in (from Dumfries with a Letter of introduction from M'Diarmid, a very good kind of young man, named Pagan);12 he has taken up all my time, and put all my ideas to flight. You must take this scrawl as the best I can afford.— Remember me at Dumfries; say I expect Jean still to stand true, as one of the best strings of my bow in that matter of sending news.
Jane has been out a little while, and is come in again, complaining of the damp cold. She sends her love to you all; but I hear no tidings of any letter yet: I suppose her ideas are quite frozen up at present. I beg you, dear Mother, to take all care of yourself. Alas, I wish I could do you any good, be of any service to you; but I am far off and can do nothing. All I can or could do is always richly due to you.— Mrs Welsh will be for seeing you when once she gets to Templand; but that, I fancy, is a little way off yet. Good b'ye My dear Mother for this time. You will hear from me again before long. I commit you all to the Good Guardian; praying and wishing from the bottom of my heart that a blessing may be on you all.
I remain ever, / Your affectionate Son
T. Carlyle.
Will you remember me kindly to good Graham of Burnswark. I did mean to write a Note to him this morning; but the "Pagan" has wasted all my time.

Video: New footage of intense Dorner firefight
Video from the shootout shows police surround the cabin and fire repeatedly
By Erik Ortiz
New York Daily News
BIG BEAR, Calif. — Deputies fired a barrage of bullets as they waged a final standoff with fugitive Christopher Dorner on Tuesday — moments before his hideout was engulfed in flames. Part of the dramatic gun battle was recorded by CBS News, and authorities are seen aiming at a cabin in Southern California's San Bernardino mountains where Dorner was barricaded.
Officials had asked media not to air live footage of the assault in case Dorner had access to a TV. Eventually, an armored vehicle was used to rip down the cabin's walls, police later said. A single gunshot was heard before a fire broke out — but it wasn't clear how the blaze started.
The San Bernardino Sheriff's Department confirmed charred human remains were found inside the torched structure, but have yet to identify the body as Dorner's. A driver's license with his name was also found among the rubble, The Associated Press reported Wednesday.

GEN's Expert Panelists Discuss Technologies and...
Universitat Konstanz scientists discovered a second enzyme involved in initiating the degradation of proteins inside cells. "We essentially found that cleanup in the cell is not supervised by one, but by two proteins," says Marcus Groettrup, Ph.D., lead author and chair of the immunology department. "This is important because everything we know about this cleanup process assumes that only one enzyme initiates it. The second protein we discovered may either share some functions with the first one or do totally different things."
Before being degraded, proteins are tagged with a ubiquitin. Three types of enzymes are involved in the tagging process. An enzyme called activating enzyme (E1) first activates ubiquitin and binds to it. Then the ubiquitin is transferred to a second enzyme called ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2). Finally, a third enzyme, ubiquitin ligase (E3), binds to both E2 and the protein to be degraded, so that E2 can transfer the ubiquitin to the protein.
Until now, only one type of E1 enzyme for ubiquitin has been known to exist in the human genome, while (34) E2 enzymes and (531) E3 enzymes have been discovered.
The scientists were searching for an enzyme similar to E1 that activates a protein that looks like ubiquitin called FAT10. However, the enzyme they found could not activate FAT10 but instead activated ubiquitin itself. The researchers also confirmed that this enzyme, which they called UBE1L2, also helped degrade proteins by working with E2 and E3 enzymes.
The team also tested whether UBE1L2 was, like the original E1, expressed in all organs and tissues. They measured the expression levels of UBE1L2 in mice and found that the protein was expressed about five times more in the testis than other organs. They believe this could provide a new understanding of male fertility.
The study is published in the August 3 issue of the Journal of Biological Chemistry.

TC TO AN UNIDENTIFIED CORRESPONDENT ; 9 July 1853; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18530709-TC-UC-01; CL 28: 190
Chelsea, 9 july, 1853—
My dear Sir,
Here is your Brother's Letter again,1 which I am glad to have seen, and thank you for sending me. The old Vestry-Clerk is an interesting old gentleman, with his "tree planted 70 years ago"; but he is unquestionably in error as to that Cromwell point of Parish Antiquities. Cromwell did die in 1658; but it is a thing of conspicuous notoriety that his Corpse was torn out of its resting-place in Westminster Abbey in 1660, and did not get finally buried till that date,—and then, naturally, as the Law directed, under the gallows of Tyburn (close by the modern Cumberland Gate of Hyde Park); where it still lies, and will lie,—in such company as the Genius of England, much encumbered at that time could succeed in providing for it, and judging the suitablest!2 A deserved maim upon the Genius of England; which it must forever bear henceforth. The "O. C. 1658," must therefore be a misleading or otherwise one of the thousand fables which prurient Ignorance has devised on this subject, and still goes on devising.
I hope your Calvin Book will get well edited (which will not be quite easy to do); and find readers in abundance.3
With many thanks, I remain / Yours sincerely /
T. Carlyle

In the wake of the police killing of unarmed, 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri (a suburb of St. Louis), outraged protestors suspect that Brown's capital "crime" was "walking while black." Meanwhile, the tactics used to suppress the protests have been more appropriate for an occupying army than for "peace officers" with the mission to "protect and serve" their communities. From establishing a "no-fly zone" over Ferguson, to journalists tear gassed and arrested, to deploying snipers and armored fighting vehicles, U.S. troops in Afghanistan could hardly ask for looser rules of engagement than the "public servants" of Ferguson are enjoying.
This morning, the Ferguson police finally released the name of the officer who killed Brown--while simultaneously alleging that Brown had just minutes before robbed a convenience store. A great deal remains to be sorted out about why Officer Darren Wilson claims to have thought it necessary to kill Brown, but in the meantime, a city has been under the boot of martial law, in effect, if not in name.
Surprisingly, the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence (CSGV) counts itself among those who believe the brutal suppression of Ferguson is grossly excessive, according to their press release:
The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence (CSGV) is closely watching the situation in Ferguson, Missouri and we are deeply disturbed by what we see unfolding there. Our hearts go out to the family of Michael Brown, Jr. as they deal with an unimaginable loss.
What makes this surprising is that CSGV has long defended virtually unlimited power of government, to the point of denying the legitimacy of armed resistance against a government rounding up citizens for the concentration camps.
They [the Ferguson Police] have responded to largely peaceful protests with a heavily militarized force (approximately 70 SWAT members and an armored vehicle) and trained loaded weapons on Ferguson residents, including children.
Hmm . . . "a heavily militarized force"? That's funny--CSGV's executive director Josh Horwitz likes to warn us to "not pile too much on the militarization of law enforcement" (37-second video).
For years, we have differed with the pro-gun movement over the use of coercive force in a democratic society. It is our contention that states with unregulated private militias are rarely, if ever, functional. That said, the government's "monopoly on force" must be subject to civilian control, and it comes with tremendous responsibility to adhere to democratic principles of good governance.
The Ferguson PD's actions are under civilian control--the cops (who are "civilians," if heavily militarized ones) didn't pull off a coup d'état. They are taking their directions from the government officials above them--just the way CSGV claims government should--must--work.
Now CSGV has decided that this would be a good time to demonize so-called "assault weapons," despite none being involved in this situation:
The situation in Ferguson should also be cause for reflection on the continuing arms race between civilians and law enforcement in our country. We must recognize that Ferguson is not the norm. The overwhelming majority of law enforcement officers are good men and women who are legitimately concerned about the type of firepower they are now being confronted with on America's streets. This arms race is making our neighborhoods more dangerous and benefitting only one party: the gun industry, which sees continuing escalation as a business opportunity. We must all come together—civilians and law enforcement alike—to curb the proliferation of military-style firepower in our society.
Whatever the reason is that Wilson killed Brown, it's not because AR-15s are legal for civilians to own (and not because Type III body armor is, either, Rep. Honda). CSGV has made this argument before: if citizens were more strictly limited in terms of what guns they can own, law enforcement would be less jumpy, and thus less likely to gun down unarmed teenagers. "Pass some more gun laws, so we can stop killing you," is the apparent message. Actually, though, it's not quite true that privately owned so-called "assault weapons" are playing no role in Ferguson--they have very likely prevented the looting from being even worse than it has been.
Finally, we acknowledge the comparisons that many are drawing between what is happening in Ferguson and the armed standoff that took place at the Bundy ranch this past April. The dramatic differences in law enforcement response to the two events are difficult to ignore. Why are white pro-gun activists able to point loaded firearms at law enforcement and avoid accountability under the law altogether while unarmed, peaceful African-American citizens are met with a militarized police force and mass arrests?
You want to know why the Bundy ranch guardians were able to make the government back down, while Ferguson residents remain under the government's jackboots, CSGV? It's because at the Bundy ranch, the government knew that they would not enjoy a "monopoly on force"--that they would pay for their excesses in blood, more of it than they were willing to lose. The Ferguson cops, on the other hand, clearly like their overwhelming edge in firepower.
That's your "government monopoly on force," CSGV. Own it.

Oliberté + 1% for the Planet
Since day one, it has been Oliberté's goal to be as good as possible to the world we work in and to the people who belong to the company. Companies in the footwear and apparel industry, as much as any other, should be obligated not only to think about tomorrow but to also consider the well-being of future generations.
The environment is a key part of this. To start, Oliberté uses materials and methods to make their shoes as sustainable as possible. The leather is natural and free range, the rubber is sourced from live trees, and kept as natural as possible. They also make sure that all the leather tanneries they work with have proper water treatment facilities and do not use Chrome-3 to treat the leather.
While Oliberté says they are far from perfect, they know that you can never go too far to help the environment. We are proud to announce that they have joined the 1% for the Planet, and will annually give back one percent of sales to bettering the world we all live in (beyond their current efforts, of course).
Welcome to the 1% FTP family, Oliberté!

We have little family people stickers on our car, but we've never done holiday decorations. I like the reindeer ears at Christmas, or the Rudolph nose. I like those eyelashes for headlights (year round) too. 🙂

No strings, no hook and eye closures - just yarn and elastic! The KIINI Tasmin Crochet Top ($155) is part of a line of bikinis that uses materials you'd usually see far from the beach to create swimsuits that spin a crafty vibe, yet are incredibly versatile (go ahead, play volleyball or take a dive) thanks to their snug fit. They're entirely handmade, just like the crochet bikini tops you saw on your mom in the '60s, except that they also use high-tech Spandex fabric to make them lightweight and water-ready.

Leaders in low power Wi-Fi and cloud connectivity make it easy to wirelessly connect to the cloud; new solution to be demonstrated at DESIGN West 2012
GainSpan® Corporation a leader in low power Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi connectivity for the Internet of Things, and a Exosite, a provider of cloud-connectivity solutions for embedded applications, are working together to develop a Wi-Fi enabled, cloud connected solution for the Internet of Things. For embedded designers, the new solution will reduce the time, effort and cost involved in getting new, innovative, connected products and services to market.
By connecting to the cloud, devices can be monitored, managed and controlled remotely from computers, smartphones and tablets, allowing users to graphically interact with their devices and data through a web portal and set alerts to receive emails or SMS when a condition occurs. In machine to machine (M2M) applications, sensor data could be analyzed in the cloud and automatically trigger an action as a result.
A demonstration of the new Exosite cloud-based connectivity solution will take place at DESIGN West 2012, March 26 – 29, 2012 in San Jose, in the Renesas Electronics booth #1507. Sensor data from a Renesas' RL78 development kit using Exosite's API will be sent over GainSpan Wi-Fi to the Exosite cloud platform, showing the ease of building connected products that can be monitored and controlled.
Exosite's One Platform Cloud Connectivity Solution
The One Platform cloud connectivity solution provides for easy integration of all the building blocks – from GainSpan Wi-Fi connectivity modules (including cloud-capable firmware) to data platform APIs and web dashboards – enabling developers to quickly build next generation connected products.
The Exosite cloud connectivity solution, designed for Internet of Things applications, provides data acquisition, back-haul and storage capabilities, and monitoring and management of connected devices. It encompasses cloud connectivity APIs, the One Platform cloud-based data platform, and a dedicated web-dashboard interface.
GainSpan's fully certified, low power Wi-Fi modules provide for easy integration with microcontroller solutions, enabling embedded designers to quickly add Wi-Fi connectivity to any 8-32-bit MCU - through a serial interface and using AT commands. The modules are pre-loaded with serial to Wi-Fi firmware with complete Wi-Fi functionality including security, WPS and provisioning features running on the module as well as the networking stack, an embedded HTTP server with network configuration pages, and limited AP capability for ease of provisioning.
"With the proliferation of ubiquitous Wi-Fi access in residential, commercial and industrial environments, cost effective and easy to integrate connectivity via Wi-Fi for embedded devices has become essential in enabling cloud-connected M2M applications and the Internet of Things," said Hans Rempel, Chief Executive Officer for Exosite.

For years you may have wanted to get out and go paddling. This should be the year you go for it. When you head out to any waterway whether it's a lake, pond or river there seems to be someone kayaking. Kayaking has dramatically increased in popularity especially over the past ten years or so.
First, safety is of the upmost importance when going paddling. It can be a fun pastime but could have a tragic ending if common sense is not followed and the proper safety equipment's (proper-fitting U.S. Coast Guard approved PFD, correct-sized paddle and a sound-making device capable of making a 4 to 6 second blast) are not used. It is always best to paddle with others. Last year, three paddlers in our area rivers (2 in the Delaware River and 1 in the Lehigh River) drowned. None were wearing a life jacket.
Early spring, winter paddling and anytime during the year after heavy rainfalls can be dangerous for the inexperienced and unprepared, so it is best to tag along with more experienced paddlers, or stay off the water at these times.
A good way to get started into paddling is with a canoe club, county park system, nature center, at a kayak demo day sponsored by certain boat dealers, Cabela's or at an L.L. Bean's Kayaking Discovery Course. The PA DCNR also offers programs which are listed on their calendar of events page. Events may be free or have a slight fee.
Some of these providers will usually help you obtain necessary equipment if needed and provide helpful hints on what to bring. Sometimes they even include the kayaks, canoes and safety equipment. They may also provide a car shuttle.
On the Delaware River, several commercial outfitters are run by seasoned professionals along both sides of river in New Jersey and Pennsylvania which can assure you of a safe trip with consistently up-dated equipment, the convenience of shuttles from end to end, and words of advice that will make your trip the best it can be.
Paddling the rivers, lakes and ponds in our area is one way to have a great day in the outdoors for people of all ages. It can be just a leisurely relaxing paddle or could become a vigorous workout. Also, fishing in a kayak can be an awesome experience. If possible, plan your trip for a weekday, when waterways are usually less crowded.
Not sure where to go paddling? There are more than 85,000 miles of rivers and streams and 76 natural lakes in Pennsylvania and that doesn't include the hundreds of man-made lakes and reservoirs across the state. There are just simply so many places to go kayaking. But be sure not to trespass on private land or waterways unless you have the owner's permission.
A favorite canoeing and kayak stretch for year-round placid paddling is on the Lehigh River from the Route 33 PFBC launch, north towards Freemansburg and south to the Chain Dam in Easton.
There are also many fine area lakes to paddle in, including: Lake Nockamixon in Bucks County, Lake Minsi which is north of Bangor in Northampton County, Leaser Lake in northwestern Lehigh County, the Francis Walter Dam in Carbon County, Mauch Chunk Lake north of Jim Thorpe in Carbon County and White Lake near Blairstown in Warren County, NJ, to name a few.
Bring water, sunscreen, bug spray and a camera; and even a bag lunch and snacks which can turn the outing also into a picnic. Use some type of dry bag or waterproof container for food and camera. Afterward, a stop at a local restaurant or ice cream shop can add the perfect ending to a great day.
Don't forget your PFD; and remember your boat, even if non-powered, must be registered in PA regardless of what state you reside in if using any PFBC lake or launch site, or on any water in a state park. (In 2012, the Fish and Boat Commission sold more than 40,000 launch permits for unpowered boats like kayaks and canoes.) Also note; waters at Bucks County parks require an additional county permit. Canoes and kayaks do not need to be registered to go on New Jersey waters if manually powered. It is best to always read signage at boat launches and to investigate unknown waterways before going there.
If you're looking at purchasing a kayak, read as many on-line reviews as possible (check out paddling.net) and visit various stores or dealers. Learn about the different types of boats, their stability and features and the materials used to make them. It's always best to test drive a canoe or kayak before purchasing. You don't want any regrets after buying a vessel which won't suit your needs.
Many sporting goods stores such as Dick's and Sports Authority offer low price kayaks but the quality of them may be cheap, which may be fine though for the beginner. Higher quality kayaks are available at L.L. Bean's at the Promenade Shops in Center Valley and at other local boat dealers, but they can be pricey.
Another option for some good quality kayaks at affordable prices is to try Nature's Way which is located on Route 563 just off of Route 412 near Lake Nockamixon. They are friendly and knowledgeable, having a wide array of canoes and kayaks both new and used. Their hours are Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., or call Bill Amey at 215-536-8964 for more info or to schedule a demo. They also have kayak and canoe rentals available for use at Lake Nockamixon. At Nature's Way they are concerned about you getting into the right kayak rather than just making a sale.
Next time: transporting, entries and exits, plus some other tips.

Communism Reborn
by David Horowitz:
As John Perazzo and I write in our new broadside about Occupy Wall Street, this movement marks a new phase in the rebirth of the communist left. I wrote about this phenomenon previously in my book Unholy Alliance, where I included a lengthy analysis called "The Mind of the Left" tracing its development from the Stalinism of the Thirties through its reincarnation in the final degenerated stages of the New Left (William Ayers comes to mind) and then in the post-Communist resurgence of the international left first in the anti-globalization riots (which were not against globalization but against capitalism) and then in the movement to defend the Iraqi mass murderer Saddam Hussein. Only a movement so swept up in its hatred of America as a symbol of capitalism could have committed a moral atrocity like this.

Gameday updates and scores from all women's basketball games can be found @NIUscores.THE HUSKIES AND THE GOLDEN FLASHESNorthern Illinois will take on Kent State for the 30th time Wednesday night with the Huskies hoping to close the series gap. The Golden Flashes own an 18-11 lead in the series over NIU but the Huskies have taken the last two meetings. All-time at the Convocation Center, Northern Illinois is 3-2 against the Golden Flashes. In the last home meeting, January 28, 2012, the Huskies defeated KSU, 66-55, thanks to a 23 point performance by former Huskie Courtney Shelton (2008-12). Last season, NIU defeated the Golden Flashes, 52-47, at the M.A.C. Center in Kent, Ohio for Northern Illinois' second conference win of the season.LAST TIME OUTNIU headed East to Bowling Green for a Sunday matchup with the Falcons at the Stroh Center, in hopes of securing its first victory at BGSU since 2004. Northern Illinois opened strong against Bowling Green, the MAC East's No. 1 team, as it tied the Falcons, 8-8, seven minutes into the game. While BGSU built a lead, the Huskies played a great defense as they showed their rank as Mid-American Conference's No. 2 defense.Northern Illinois had its opportunities to score as it posted 63 shots in the game, but were unable to capitalize on its scoring chances against the MAC's No. 1 defense. While NIU trailed by double-digits for the last six minutes of the first half and most of the second half, the Huskies cut that lead to single digits with seven minutes left as Alicia Johnson hit a jump shot in the paint to bring NIU back within nine, 47-38. The Huskies were unable to overcome the deficit however, as they fell to the Falcons, 57-44.Junior Natecia Augusta paced the Huskie offense with 12 points in the contest. Augusta was aggressive in the post offensively and defensively, as she tied her career-high of 12 field goal attempts in the game. Augusta, Alex Dumoulin and Johnson collectively held BGSU's leading scorer Alexis Rogers to only six points in the game with only one field goal, trapping the forward under the basket and on the baseline while guards limited the passing outlets. Amanda Corral scored 11 points in the game, reaching double-digits for the sixth time in MAC play.SCOUTING THE GOLDEN FLASHESKent State owns a 3-15 record this season and is winless in the Mid-American Conference at 0-7. It has also lost its last 10 games. KSU has not defeated an opponent since December 4, 2013, a 69-46 victory over Niagara. On the road KSU is winless at a clip of 0-7. The Golden Flashes have also posted victories over Eastern Kentucky (75-74 OT), and against Stephen F. Austin, 54-52.Defensively, Kent State has been respectable, surrendering 70.0 points per game but only scoring 55.4 per contest. Playing an aggressive style, the Golden Flashes are averaging 3.6 blocks and and 8.3 steals per outing. Amber Dunlap and Montia Johnson are the top-scorers this season for Kent State at 8.9 and 8.8 points per game, respectively. Johnson leads the squad in rebounding with 6.8 boards per contest. Center CiCi Shannon, standing 6-4 according to the KSU roster, is the Golden Flashes top shot blocker with 47 this season (2.6 per game). A transfer from Southern Illinois, Shannon led the Missouri Valley Conference in blocks during the 2011-12 season at 2.2 blocks per game.THE CENTURY CLUBSeven minutes into the game last Sunday at Bowling Green, senior Alicia Johnson stepped onto the court for her 99th career appearance with the Huskies. With an potential appearance Wednesday versus Kent State, Johnson will be the first senior this season to have played in 100 career games and first Huskies since Shaakira Haywood on January 5, 2013 at Valparaiso to play in 100 career games in the NIU women's basketball program. Classmate Ashley Sneed has played in 90 career games as a Huskie.POST PRESENCEAgainst Bowling Green, the Mid-American Conference's No. 1 defense, the Huskies outscored the Falcons in the paint, 28-22. Junior Natecia Augusta played a vital role in breaking down the defense as she accounted for 12 points in the game. Amanda Corral has caused problems on pull up shots and on the drive with 11 points total. After realizing, the threat late in the second half, BGSU collapsed on the post -- triple teaming at times -- to open up mid-range opportunities for NIU, which led to the Huskies late charge on the scoreboard in the period. Defensively, the Huskies were able to hold Bowling Green's top-scorer Alexis Rogers, a transfer from Duke, to only six points and 1-of-8 shooting. Her six points were a season-low for the senior, who had twice been named the MAC East Player of the Year. Forwards Alex Dumoulin, Amber Gray, Alicia Johnson and Augusta were all part of NIU's defense in the post.REBOUNDS GALOREJunior Jenna Thorp has been a terror for the Huskies opposition over the last five games as a rebounder, grabbing 8.8 boards per game in that span. The five game mark is the best of her NIU career and is highlighted by two double-digit efforts versus Eastern Michigan (13) and Buffalo (11), setting a new career-high against the Eagles. Thorp is also averaging 7.0 points per game in the last five games.THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOMEIn its last three home games, Northern Illinois is 2-1 with its only loss occurring January 23 versus Buffalo, 63-52. Through seven game, the Huskies have outscored their opponents at the Convocation Center this season, 66-60, and are shooting .424 from the field to their opponents .369. The glass favors NIU as well as the Huskies own + 6.0 rebound margin over opponents at home.SECOND HALF DEFENSEWhile has lost its last two games, the Huskies have maintained its stellar defense in the second half of games as they've outscored opponents, 36-32, in the MAC games. The Northern Illinois defense has also only allowed conference opponents to shoot .353 from the field in the second half through seven games, including .237 from behind the three-point line.AN EXPERIENCED EYERedshirt junior Danny Pulliam has an eye for breaking down Mid-American Conference defenses in the second half from her point guard position. While the Huskies are shooting .427 in the second stanza, Pulliam can be partially credited for the success as she is averaging 2.1 assists per game during the second half of games. She also only has four turnovers over the last seven games during the final 20 minutes of play.USING TURNOVERS TO THEIR ADVANTAGEThe NIU defense proved its mettle when it comes to facing the MAC's top competition as it caused Bowling Green to turn the ball over 18 times on Sunday afternoon, while only committing 11, and scored 19 points off those chances, a new season-high. Northern Illinois surpassed their previous high of 18 points off of turnovers previously recorded versus Lamar November 30 at the Aggie Hotel Encanto Thanksgiving Classic at New Mexico State.ON THE OFFENSIVEOver the last two games, the Huskies have worked their tail off on the offensive glass as they have averaged 15.0 offensive rebounds in that span against Buffalo and Bowling Green. Versus the Bulls, NIU pulled down 16 boards from the offensive glass and at BGSU, followed up with a 14 offensive rebound performance. Jenna Thorp has been the leader of the pack as he has pulled down eight offensive rebounds over the last two games.THE TWIN KILLINGThere has been a movement of reliability in Northern Illinois' front court as juniors Natecia Augusta and Jenna Thorp have carried the scoring torch for the Huskies over the last two games. Augusta paced NIU last week with 10.0 points per game, while Thorp had a scored a clip of 9.0 per contest. Each led the Huskies in scoring with 12 points as Thorp led Northern Illinois against Buffalo while Augusta led NIU at Bowling Green.A TRIDENT OF ASSISTSThe Huskies have put together a smoke and mirrors attack with their inside-out style of attack and have executed with ferocity at home. Three players, Amanda Corral, Ally Lehman and Danny Pulliam, have been great distributors for Northern Illinois at home as the trio have combined for 61 assists at the Convocation Center this year, almost 65 percent of NIU's assists. Corral and Pulliam each have 21 assists at home this season, while Lehman has 19 assists. Each has a positive assist to turnover ratio with Pulliam pacing the Huskies at a clip of 1.91.NEXT UPThe Huskies will be the lone Mid-American Conference team playing Saturday, February 1 as Northern Illinois heads to Western Michigan. The Huskies and Broncos will tipoff at 3:30 p.m. Central.
