Listing Teaspoons of Added Sugars and Lowering Sodium Value Among CSPI's Recommendations for Nutrition Facts Revisions
CSPI Supports FDA's Proposal to Adjust Serving Sizes to Reflect Reality
August 4, 2014
The Food and Drug Administration should require Nutrition Facts labels to have a Daily Value for added sugars, lower the existing Daily Value for sodium to 1,500 milligrams, and increase the serving size for soups, coffee creamer, pasta, and several other foods. Those are several of the recommendations made by the nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest, which filed comments Friday with the FDA as the agency's period for public comment comes to a close. The FDA issued its proposed revisions to Nutrition Facts labels in March.
The FDA's proposed revisions called for a new line for added sugars on Nutrition Facts labels to help consumers distinguish added sugars from the naturally occurring sugars in fruit, milk, and yogurt. Diets higher in added sugars can lead to weight gain, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, says CSPI. But the agency did not propose a Daily Value for added sugars, which would make it impossible for consumers to know how much of a days worth of added sugars a food contained. CSPI had earlier recommended a Daily Value of 10 teaspoons; the American Heart Association recommends that women consume no more than six teaspoons per day and men no more than nine. CSPI's comments also urge FDA to express added sugars in teaspoons, which consumers are more familiar with, along with grams.
While FDA proposed lowering the current Daily Value for sodium from 2,400 milligrams to 2,300 mg, CSPI asked the agency to lower it further to 1,500 mg, an amount also recommended by the American Heart Association. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that more than half of all Americansincluding those who are middle-aged or older, African-Americans, and individuals with hypertension, diabetes, or kidney diseaseconsume no more than 1,500 mg. CSPI deems salt the deadliest ingredient in the food supply, promoting hypertension, heart disease, and stroke. The group also asked the FDA to require Nutrition Facts labels to list milligrams of salt rather than sodium. Again, said CSPI, people understand salt better than sodium.
"By bringing Nutrition Facts in line with current nutrition science, the government has an enormous opportunity to help Americans reduce their risk of diabetes, heart disease, strokes, and other illnesses," said CSPI executive director Michael F. Jacobson. "Americans are killing themselves by eating so much sugar and salt. Nutrition Facts labels should help consumers see how various packaged foods fitor don't fitinto their diets."
CSPI also expressed its support for the "alternate" label proposed by the FDA over the version in the agencys proposed label design. The alternate label flags for consumers which nutrients they should "get enough" of and which they should "avoid too much" of.
CSPI agreed that FDA should adjust the serving sizes of ice cream, breads, muffins, and bagels to reflect the larger amounts that people typically eat. However, CSPI urged FDA to require packages with up to three times a standard serving of a food to be labeled "per package." Many foods, including potato chips, microwave popcorn, pot pies, and macaroni and cheese, come in packages that are small enough to be eaten at one sitting, but are labeled as if they contain two or three servings.
Finally, though it wasn't in FDA's proposal, CSPI urged the FDA to require ingredients lists to be legible, including by using bullets to separate ingredients from one another. Health Canada adopted such a recommendation for its revisions to Canadian nutrition labels.
Nutrition Facts labels became mandatory after the enactment of the 1990 Nutrition Labeling and Education Act. Except for the addition of a line for trans fat added in 2006, the labels have basically been frozen in time since their adoption 20 years ago.

You can cure your athletes foot naturally without expensive products. Athletes foot is a fungal infection of the skin. The symptoms are redness, itching and irritation in the affected area. Sometimes the skin will have cracks, blisters or cuts. It may have a scaly appearance as well. Athletes foot does not go away on its' own and can spread to the nails as well. Nail infections are nearly impossible to cure.
Address the problem immediately.
It's essential that you take steps to cure athletes foot at the first sign of a problem. There are several excellent natural cures for athletes foot. Once you have cured your infection, you should also know some basic foot care rules to keep athletes foot from returning.
Tea tree oil for athletes foot:
Tea Tree Oil is highly recommended as a natural cure for athletes foot. Tea tree oil is a naturally occurring antiseptic which works to kill the athletes foot fungus. Tea tree oil can be found at health food stores. It should be applied to the affected areas 2-3 times daily until the infection has been cleared up. A cotton swab works quite well for application.
Vinegar kills fungus
Vinegar has also been used as a natural cure for athletes foot. It will kill the fungus due to its' acidic properties. Mix a solution of vinegar, salt and warm water to soak your feet in. The mixture should contain ½ cup vinegar, 2 tbsp. salt, and enough warm water to cover your feet.
A strange combination:
Another suggestion for curing athletes foot naturally is aspirin mixed with rubbing alcohol. The alcohol allows the aspirin to soak in to your skin and kill the fungus. Dissolve 5 aspirin tablets in ½ cup of rubbing alcohol. Use a cotton swab to apply the solution to your clean feet before putting your shoes on each day and after taking them off at night.
Preventative measures:
Once the athletes foot has been cured you'll want to use preventative measures to keep it from coming back. The basic premise of prevention is to keep your feet cool and dry. Heat and moisture cause fungus to grow.
*Always wash your socks in hot water to kill any fungus that may be present.
*Wear clean dry cotton socks at all times. Change multiple times daily if necessary.
*Use foot powder to keep feet dry.
*Lotions and cream will add to the moisture.
*Never go barefoot in public places like swimming facilities. Wear flip flops or swim shoes so as not to pick up or spread infection.
*If you have family members with athletes foot be sure they clean the bath or shower after use.

Jose Fernandez is the most spectacular starting pitcher in baseball right now. So when he got shellacked in San Diego on Friday, something had to be wrong.
The Marlins' worst fears were confirmed, and Fernandez is now out for the season with a torn UCL. He will need Tommy John surgery, an operation that takes at least a full year to return from. He joins the long list of pitchers that already includes Kris Medlen of the Atlanta Braves, Patrick Corbin of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Matt Moore of the Rays and many more.
At the young age of 21, Fernandez is the biggest ray of hope for the Miami Marlins and their fan base. His 2.44 ERA and Major League leading 70 strikeouts in eight starts this season has helped keep the Marlins in contention.
He won the National League Rookie of the Year last with 187 strikeouts, a major league-best .182 opponents' batting average and a 2.19 ERA that was second in the majors behind three-time defending ERA champ Clayton Kershaw.
The good news is Tommy John surgery has a very high success rate because the procedure takes an unused ligament and adds it to the UCL that's being repaired, making the pitcher stronger than ever. However not everyone comes back from Tommy John successfully.
Josh Johnson had Tommy John in 2007 with the Marlins and has been an injury liability since. Daniel Hudson required Tommy John surgery in 2012 after a great 2011 season with the Arizona Diamondbacks but re-tore his UCL during rehab and had to get a second Tommy John surgery.
The UCL has become the ACL of baseball. In football, once you hear someone tear their ACL, their season was done and possibly their career. Now in baseball, pitchers are playing with fire when they throw their hardest 100 times every five days.
The loss of Fernandez in the rotation is a major blow but the Marlins can keep on going. In 2003, the Marlins lost their ace A.J. Burnett for the season early on and still went on to win the World Series.
That happened because of the arrival of Dontrelle Willis who took the baseball world by storm. Willis came in the same way Livan Hernandez did in 1997. Two one-hit wonders in two World Series winning seasons.
The Marlins have yet to truly benefit from the blockbuster trade they made with the Toronto Blue Jays after the 2012 season. To take Fernandez's place, the Marlins will send out Anthony DeSclafani (one of the three pitchers the Marlins acquired from the trade) from Double-A Jacksonville to face the Los Angeles Dodgers. Desclafani struck out 10 batters in six innings in his most recent start.
Whether it's DeSclafani or someone else, if they can find a fifth guy who can be not as good as Fernandez but just good enough, they'll still be able to compete.

Netherlands Passes Ban on MushroomsNovember 13th, 2008 by Perry
Mostly an import from Hawaii, Ecuador and Mexico, the hallucinogenic, "magic mushrooms" are now banned in the Netherlands. Mushrooms have been freely available for years in the country.
The ban was passed due to outrage over a French girl, 17, who jumped from a bridge to her death while under the influence of mushrooms. The move seems to come as a wave of reform is being pushed by the local leaders who hope to clean up the image of the nation.
Amsterdam city council supports the government's ban, hoping it will change the general perception of the city as a mecca for drug users and the sex industry.
Shop owners have claimed the ban will result in hundreds of jobs being lost and are planning protest marches.
A Dutch magic mushroom customer said:
Sunday lunch just won't be the same. I always used the mushrooms in my stew for friends. They produce a nice relaxing glow, much better than alcohol.
Most definitely.

Ok, to start I am new to metric spaces. I have studied equivalence relations in Algebra, but unfamiliar with the e.r. in metric spaces.
Here is my question:
We say that metric spaces (X,$d_X$) and (Y,$d_Y$) are isometric if there is an isometry $f:X \to Y$. Write this as (X,$d_X$) $\backsimeq$ (Y,$d_Y$) and show that $\backsimeq$ is an equivalence relation on the collection of metric spaces.
I know that I need to show the following
- $x \backsimeq x$ but don't know what "x" looks like; is it $d_X (a,a) \backsimeq d_Y (x,x)$ if so where do "x" come from. Or, how do I define $\backsimeq$?
- $x \backsimeq y \implies y \backsimeq x$ same problem as above
- $x \backsimeq z$ and $z \backsimeq y \implies x \backsimeq z$. Which is an even bigger problem since i don't know where "z" comes from.
I am told that if I can show $f^{-1}$ preserves distance, then I am done.
If anyone can tell me what I need to show, I should be good. i.e. what "x" is and how to define $\backsimeq$.
PROOF: (As of right now. I am still over thinking this problem.)
Reflective property can be shown by the identity map. Let $id:X\to X$, then $id$ is bijective and we are done?
Symmetric property want to show $f:X\to Y$ is bijective, which will then show there is inverse to $f$; i.e. $f^{-1}:X\to Y$ which is bijective.
Let $(X,d_X)\backsimeq (Y,d_Y)$, then $f:X\to Y$ is isometry which implies that for every $y\in Y$ $\exists x\in X$ s.t. $f(x)=y$. Since $(X,d_X)$ and $(Y,d_Y)$ are isometric we have $d_X (x_1,x_2)=d_Y (y_1,y_2)=f_Y (f(x_1),f(x_2))$. Thus, for every $x\in X$ and $y\in Y$ we have $d_X(x_1,x_2)=d_Y(f(x_1),f(x_2))$. Thus, $f$ is bijective, which implies there exists an $f^{-1}$. Therefore, $(Y,d_Y)\backsimeq (X,d_X)$.

I have known Laura Goldfarb, the big kahuna at indie-based Red Boot Publicity for quite a few years and have learned one very important lesson - she knows indie music. Goldfarb is very particular about her clientele, and every act she represents is the real deal. Such is the case with one of her newest clients, Swedish pop duo Marching Band.
The group recently released their third studio album, So Much Imagine, in America, and instantly became favorites of such musical trendsetters as Rolling Stone and KCRW. Their music provides a fresh take on 80's/90's style pop with danceable beats that are instantly memorable.
The new CD contains 21 diverse tracks which supply something different for just about every listener. The harmonies are tight, the lyrics thoughtful and the arrangements create an atmosphere of tranquility and peace, making the listener feel like all is right in the world. Several of the songs (RHP, 180, Kananado) are short and sweet instrumentals that provide balance to the album.
"This album is as much 'we' as it gets," says Marching Band. "It's a really personal recording, showing the differences between the two of us as songwriters and how our opinions sometimes differ. The songs cover a broad spectrum of styles and emotions, and the lyrics are unfiltered versions of our private thoughts."
Erik's cousin, Henrik Sunbring, mixed So Much Imagine at his studio Helter Skelter in Stockholm, Sweden. "Henrik added a real family feel to the process," says Marching Band. "He kept the sound clear and simple like we wanted it to be, while improving what we had already done." For fans of guitar-driven, melodic indie-pop, especially those with a flair for retro-sounding music and unprocessed vocals, So Much Imagine is the perfect addition to their daily playlist.
The album reminds me of a mixture of the bands Tears for Fears and fun. It is upbeat, positive and catchy. My favorite tracks are Come Back, Young and Unafraid, The River Jordan, Put Your Foot Down (reminiscent of surf tunes from the 60's), Artistic Man, Shaved Hand (probably my favorite track), A Menace to Myself, A Single Place, and Die in My Arms.
The album is currently streaming on The Big Takeover, so don't miss the opportunity to check them out for yourself. Click on the link to listen. In addition, check out their music video for And I've Never Seen Anything Like That at MTV.com.

Joe Aillet Stadium (map it)
Stadium Blvd
Ruston, LA 71272
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs website
Year Opened: 1968
Capacity: 30,600
There are no tickets available at this time.
Official Review by Anna Claire Thomas, Stadium Journey Correspondent
Louisiana Tech University, and the town of Ruston, La., is very quaint and traditional in every sense of the words. Joe Aillet Stadium sits in sort of a bowl shape, slightly below the ground. The stadium, named after legendary coach Joe Aillet, was opened in 1968 with a capacity of 23,000. Throughout the years the press box has seen various renovations and 7,600 seats were added, to stretch the seating capacity to over 30,000 and in 2006, field turf was installed to enhance the stadium.
Joe Aillet Stadium installed a $2 million high definition video board and new sound system before the start of the 2009 season. The stands are in dire need of replacing. Apart from the season ticket holders' chairback seats, fans can expect a run-of-the-mill experience as far as seats go at college football stadiums. Overall, the stadium is a fine place to watch a college football game on a sunny, fall afternoon in north Louisiana.
The FANFARE scale is our metric device for rating each stadium experience. It covers the following:
Each area is rated from 0 to 5 stars with 5 being the best. The overall composite score is the "FANFARE Score".
The food and beverage at Joe Aillet Stadium left a lot to be desired. The options at concessions do not offer a lot of variety. The menu consists of hot dogs ($3), hamburgers ($4), nachos ($3), popcorn ($2), and candy ($3). Pepsi products are available in 20 oz. bottles only ($3.50), and the concession stand lacks any souvenir/collectible cups for fans. The food and beverages could greatly improve with a few minor additions to the menu. There are only a limited number of concession stands available throughout the stadium, although there is a Maggie Moo's ice cream stand to give fans a cold treat on a hot, Louisiana afternoon. Fans should probably make arrangements to eat ahead of time.
Joe Aillet Stadium offers an overall good place to see a college football game. The stadium saw the new addition of Dawgzilla (jumbotron) in 2009, which greatly enhanced the game day experience at the Joe and gets the fans involved throughout the game. The school band cannot match the excitement the video board gets from students and fans alike. The alumni side of the stadium provides seatback chairs for season ticket holders, but other than that, it contains your average, run-of-the-mill stadium bleachers.
The tailgating on campus is quite impressive, considering the size of the school and the fan base. The fans are incredibly enthusiastic and alumni come out in droves to support the Bulldogs early in the day. There are not a lot of pre-game options within walking distance of the stadium. One of the best choices is The Dawg House. Located just under a mile away from the stadium, The Dawg House offers a plethora of different hamburgers and tons of other choices for a great meal. One of The Dawg House's signature dishes is Paw Claw's, which are chicken fingers dipped in your choice of three sauces. Louisiana Tech athletics is the theme of The Dawg House's menu and decoration so it is a great place to spend time before or after a big game.
Louisiana Tech fans are very ardent and loyal, mostly consisting of university alumni and current students. The student section was mostly full except for a few bare spots in the corners of the stadium, and decked out in a sea of red for Tech's annual Red Out game against Hawaii. The alumni side of the stadium also was well represented to enhance the energetic atmosphere.
I was very impressed with the turn out of the fans and the energy they brought to the game. The fans complimented the video board well, as they danced and sang along with it. The fans are also incredibly enthusiastic every time the Bulldogs get first downs, as they shout in unison, "MOVE THE CHAINS, MOVE THE CHAINS, MOVE CHAINS"�SCORE MORE POINTS!"
Parking close the stadium is mostly reserved for LTAC (Louisiana Tech Athletic Club) members, although additional parking nearby is a little costly. It costs fans $10 to park across the street at the Lady Techster softball field. Traffic is not too big of a problem before or after the game. The side streets get a little congested, but typical for the size of the crowd.
Students are given free admission into Joe Aillet Stadium with their student ID's, so the student section is mostly packed out for the majority of the games. Parking costs are somewhat reasonable, and the food is slightly overpriced for the quality you receive. Overall, the experience is well worth it, as long as Bulldog fans are satisfied with their squad on the field. A trip to Joe Aillet Stadium is a good investment.
The field looked fantastic, outfitted in turf a few years back, and the Jumbotron added a great deal to the game day experience. The team is still young in 2011 and going through some learning curves, but improvement is not far off. I was mostly impressed with the fans, who stood and cheered non-stop for the majority of the game.
Not a very educated review
Not a very educated review
1) Almost all FBS schools have bleacher seating for non donor seats, so what is the issue? Even Texas has bleacher seats.
2) Don't like not having chair back seats and dont have money to donate? Cushion seats with chair back is $45 for the season.
3) Access: This one makes me think this person has actually never been to a LA Tech football game: Free parking on campus is 600 yards away and $10 parking 200 yards away would make parking one of the 30 cheapest parking options in FBS. Weird comment by this person.
4) Accurate on concession comments.

RE: Not a very educated review
Not sure the criticism on the bleachers...she calls it a "run-of-the-mill" experience with the seats, so she's acknowledging that this is typical in college football- doesn't make the seating good though...

Food & Beverage: Tailgating is great. Friendly folks with great food.Often hold themed tailgates and it's fun to see the creativity. Concessions in stadium suck! Hot pepsi and little variety. Hit up the tailgating pre-game
Atmosphere: Hi-Def video board in North endzone adds to the atmosphere. Student participation is growing. Although sell-outs are hard to come by in rural north LA, the atmosphere is good. Definite home field advantage.
Neighborhood: Parking is widely available and free; no concerns with safety. Stadium situated half-mile south of I-20.
Fans: Rabid Dawg fans make the games fun
Access: Situated just of I-20. Easy walking from every direction
Return on Investment: Tickets are very affordable and games are very entertaining. The Nations top scoring offense last year.
Extras: Stadium exterior could use some renovations; plans in the works for a new South Endzone facility. Check out the display room in the fieldhouse (South endzone).

New Facilities have been added, newer turf has been added, and the bit about the Jumbotron being more exciting than the band is blasphemous.

I never would have thought, but I do like the two-tone cabinets too. If it's wasn't for that backsplash it wouldn't make any sense, but there it is to pull it all together! What I love most is all that space. It looks so big and airy.

Quadro Ytron™ Jet Mixer Streamlines Body Wash Production
A large private label personal care manufacturer was looking for a solution to a bottleneck in their manufacturing process for a moisturizing body wash. Body Wash products can either be an oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion and consist of emollients, lubricants, emulsifying & thickening agents, fragrance, cleansing agents, preservatives, and nourishing agents such as vitamins. Some of the problems facing the manufacturer included long batch times and variable product quality. Therefore, on time/on-specification results were often lagging demand for this popular product.
To resolve these issues, the customer purchased two (2) Quadro Ytronn™ side entry Jet Mixers for their production vessels. The customer immediately realized a dramatic decrease in overall batch time from 8 hours to less than 3 hours. Additionally, the customer realized consistent viscosity and product quality throughout the batch and from batch-to-batch, with formulations up to 75,000 cps. The mixer installation also proved to be very cost effective with no gearbox or belt drive to maintain, and no wall scraper blades or internal wear components to service.

XFS on linux migration attempt
For the last two years or so I have been buying larger disks every 8-9 months or so and migrating off the smaller ones. Since the drive prices are fairly cheap I bought a 640 gb drive for ~30$ or so.
My plan was to;
-Backup /home to USB
-Format /home
-Create RAID 1 with /home drive + other
-migrate to RAID 1
Which is simple enough, but oh no, I wanted to get fancy. Instead of simply backing up disk drive I figured I'd use DD to make disk image of my volume. Continue reading

Everyone knows that the official name for Obamacare is the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The question is whether that's an accurate title. According to Jim Geraghty's article, the PPACA is anything but affordable. Geraghty's article includes some disturbing specifics:
A non-smoking woman, age 30, buying the plan with the lowest possible premium in the state of Virginia would pay $564 per year, or $47 per month. Affordable!...Until you realize the deductible is $7,500. That's how much she has to pay out of pocket before her insurance pays anything.
That isn't affordable. That's outrageous. Unfortunately, that isn't the only disaster waiting to hurt families or young people:
In Oregon, land of the music-video promotional campaign . . . that 30-year-old, non-smoking woman can get an insurance plan with a premium of just $52 per month! Of course, the deductible is $10,000. In Washington, D.C., it's $53.50 for a plan with the same $10,000 deductible. In Maryland, she can pay $65 per month for that deductible. In Illinois, $68 per month. In Connecticut, $99 per month.
In Maine, that same woman can pay $127 per month to enjoy a $12,000 deductible!
In Minnesota, that same woman can pay a monthly premium of just $56.92 with a $15,000 deductible. What a bargain!
Those aren't bargains. They're rip-offs. It's perfectly appropriate for you to show your congressman or senator what you think of them for voting for the PPACA.
What's worst is that this is federal law, meaning states aren't allowed to try other policies. That's what happens with Washington-centric, top-down laws that were put together by politicians who didn't listen to their constituents.
Nobody seriously thinks that constituents would've put those plans together if they had their way. Washington-centric, one-size-fits-all plans don't fit into an iPhone/iPad world of limitless options.
Finally, it's important that people question Democrats for putting this monstrosity together. Specifically, they should ask why Democrats a) didn't listen to them and b) hurt their families with these expensive plans.

Other Trails Nearby
Site CES05: Cape Charles
A plethora of birdwatching opportunities are available in the vicinity of Cape Charles. From the intersection of SR 184/Stone Road and US Highway 13, turn west onto SR 184 toward the town of Cape Charles. After 1.8 miles you'll find the Cape Charles Museum, where there is an interpretive center and bird feeding stations. County bird checklists may be obtained here. From the Museum, turn left onto the Stone Road and, after two blocks (0.1 miles), turn right onto Fig Street. Go five blocks (0.4 miles) to the lake on your left at Washington Avenue. Migrant waterfowl and gulls can often be seen here. Continue north on Fig Street for 0.2 miles to Kings Creek Marina, where clapper rails and shorebirds can be found in season. During winter storms, many species of waterfowl take refuge here. Return to the Washington Avenue Lake, turning right onto Washington Avenue. Go two blocks to Bay Avenue. Turn left onto Bay Avenue and park along the shore of Chesapeake Bay. To your right are pilings, the remains of an old seaside restaurant, now used by many roosting gulls and terns in the evening. A short walk up the boardwalk, wooden overlooks offer a vista scanning the flats at low tide for shorebirds, gulls, and terns. About eighteen species of shorebird have been recorded here. On higher tides, look for bay and sea duck species in the cooler months. Bay Avenue ends in 0.1 miles at Mason Avenue, where a fishing jetty and fun pier at the harbor's mouth offers a walk for oldsquaw and purple sandpiper among other species. Gulls, including the very occasional lesser black-backed, roost here through the day, being most numerous in morning and late afternoon. In mid-March, migrating brant appear on the flats. There are restrooms available at the base of the pier. Watch all swallows here. In addition to a few pairs of northern rough-winged swallows nesting around the harbor, there are many tree and barn swallows, and purple martins also nesting nearby. From Bay Avenue, turn left onto Mason Avenue, and, at 0.6 miles, bear right onto Rt. 642/Old Cape Charles Road. After passing over the "Hump" overpass (0.3 mile), turn right onto Bayshore Road (here Rt. 1108). In 0.2 miles, Rt. 1108 becomes Marina Road, which forks to the right. Turn right here and continue 0.4 miles to the Harbor, where gulls, loons, and diving ducks often abound, including sometimes oldsquaw in small numbers. Nearby, the Sustainable Technology Industrial Park's trails can be very productive for warblers and vireos during fall migration. Backtrack and turn right onto Rt. 642. In 0.2 miles, you'll see the Bay Creek Golf Course on your right, which is an Audubon Signature Series course, designed with wildlife in mind. Several interesting bird species have been noted here.
From Kiptopeke State Park, return to US 13N. Drive 6.5 miles and turn left onto SR 184W/Stone Road.

Take the widest dimensions of the item you want to order and check it will fit
comfortably into the space where you'd like to put it.
Tip: using masking tape, mark out the dimensions of the furniture you'd like to buy, on
the floor, to see how much space it will take up and how easily you can move
around it. Check you're happy with its proportions in your room.
Check the largest dimension will fit comfortably through any doors, hallways and
up any stairs, without damaging paintwork or windows. If you need to carry the
item through a hallway where there is no space to turn, make sure any doorways
you need to access are 10cm wider than measurement B or C.
Make sure that you have space to walk around your new furniture. If you're
buying a sofa bed or recliner, allow room for them to be extended or folded out.
Reclining armchairs need about 150-180cm. For a fold-out sofa bed, you
should allow about 240cm – more if you need to be able to walk around it when
it's fully extended.

1. Why are Yuan soaps "softer" than other soaps?
Because we do not add paraffin wax and stearyl agent to harden the soaps and at the same time there were no high compression process which helps to mold the soaps shape. Yuan soaps take about 30 to 60 days to harden in a natural environment, and each bar is sliced individually. The paraffin wax and stearyl agent will clog our pores and by using natural handmade soap, you would not have the problem.
2. Why are Yuan Soaps' scents are not as strong or lasting as other soaps?
Many soaps come with artificial fragrances and perfumes that are mostly petroleum-based. The enter our bodies through our skin contact and by inhaling them. They may contain phthalates. Synthetic fragrance is the most frequent cause of allergies from cleaning products and oftentimes the fragrance can be annoying, cause skin and eye irritation, and headaches. Artificial fragrances are toxic, especially for aquatic life, birds and other animals, who are more sensitive at first to the effects (remember the canary in the coal mine? Miners knew it was unsafe if the canary died from toxic fumes even while the unfeathered friends (humans) were still working amidst the toxin.) Many artificial fragrance are known to cause cancer, birth defects, migraines, allergies and other ailments which can lead to Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson's, SIDs, and Alzheimer's. When "artificial fragrance" or sometimes just "fragrance" is listed as an ingredient on a product, pause and wonder. That word can include hundreds of chemicals! Most of the research has been on topical effects but perfumes and fragrance were made to be inhaled. There is little long-term research on the effects of all these chemicals period, even less on the effects of inhaling these chemicals, not to mention the complete and utter lack of any research on their interaction with one another nor on the effects these things can have on our children!
Unfortunately, "unscented" or "fragrance free" may be no better for our health. Many companies use chemicals to mask odors. Scent is an important aspect of our lives; it affects our mood and our health. Pure essential oils can be used instead. Though they may appear to cost more at first, you need such a small amount and the effects of a pure essential oil over a artificial fragrance are staggering - on our environment and our future, on our overall wellbeing, health and our mood. Yuan soaps use Pure Essential Oils in the soaps thus causing no harm to our body.
2. Where do we get the "colour" on the soaps?
Mother Nature has bestowed us with a rainbow of colours in the plants. By using the plants in our soaps, the colours occured naturally during the process. For example, our Purple Gromwell & Roselle soap gets it purple colour from the purple roots of Purple Gromwell. These natural colour enriched Yuan soaps with their plants properties. We would not make a soap with a specific colour in our mind.
3. Why do some soaps cause burning sensation/irritate the skin when we start using it?
Some soaps contained antibacterial agents and cleansing properties from plants and pure essential oil. This is only temporary, as our skin get healthier from using the soaps, the irritation will subsides.
4. Can we use handmade soaps as facial wash?
Of course! Our faces welcome natural products as much as the skin on our bodies. Everyday our face is exposed to dirt, polluted air, and makeup. The natural handmade soap would reduce the burden we put on the face. Just be choose wisely among the Yuan soap which is the most suitable for your skin type. For dry skin, you can always try Organic Oat soap and Sishen Chinese Herbs Soaps, For oily skin, Organic Mung bean and Job's tears and Lemon is great.
5. Shouldn't we used PH neutral products?
Our skins are actually a little acidic thus using our soaps which are slightly alkaline helps to clean the skin. Acid + Alkaline= Neutral.
6. Why are there white spots on the soaps?
These are not molds, these white substance are created when pure essential oils meet cool air or when the soaps are air dried.
7. How to we increase the soaps' lifespan?
Simple, just ensure you leave it on dry places especially after using it. The soap is softer than commercial use because the high oil content we use,as these oils will ensure the goodness properties within the soaps remained fresh.
8. What about reused oil? Does Yuan soap use reused oil in their soap making process?
Reused oil are mostly process with high heat thus its molecules are bigger than the unused ones. The larger molecules will clogged our skin's pores as well thus irritations or break outs will happen. We use only new edible oil for our soaps.

- We won the appeal that reversed the judges decision to ignore the Jury's $388 million win in 2009.
- But the appeal judges made us go back to court to review the settlement amount.
- Uniloc tried to have the appeal judges consider just letting us go with the original $388 but they were persistent. Note this does not mean a LOWER figure... just a figure based on a calculation that does not use the 25% rule... a bit confusing.
- Uniloc is waiting to hear when it will have a court date to go after a damages amount, but this time we do it with the courts ruling that Microsoft IS GUILTY.

The latest on Uniloc vs Microsoft
Wednesday, January 12, 2011
In the Wall Street Journal again
Over the weekend Julia Angwin's (Senior Technical Editor) counterpart talked to me about the appeal result… quite rightly she focussed on the real issue. Guilt.
It seems the technical workings of the damages calculation machine has overshadowed the most important thing. Next after this is making sure the fair thing happens.
The fact that Microsoft in their own documents say that they made $5.5 billion from Activation should go a long way to making sure justice prevails… if someone uses another persons idea illegally then they ought to be made to recognise that they can not profit from doing so… that's the fair thing.

More news from the states regarding Uniloc
I can now talk about it because Uniloc's CEO just announced that the total companies Uniloc has sued besides Microsoft has gone up to 60 now with 20 companies taking a license with the company.
"The company, with U.S. offices in Irvine, California, has sued 60 companies and reached licensing agreements with more than 20", Chief Executive Officer Brad Davis said in a telephone interview.

Uniloc vs Microsoft Appeal Hearing completed
Last week the Appeal Court in the US had it's hearing for arguments from Uniloc and Microsoft regarding the appeal against Judge Smith's reversal of the jury verdict in favour of Uniloc.
The panel of three judges asked a wide range of questions ranging from the technicality of the subject matter to justifying the settlement figure.
For those of you following the case closely you can listen to a recording of the case online at:
The appeal court judges final decision can take weeks or months so I have no idea how long the wait will be at this stage.

Thankyou for all the support
4,000 visitors in one day from the Sydney Morning Herald article. Again I feel privileged that the Uniloc story and our fight has been of so much interest. To me its just stuff that has to be done, but it is so great to have the support of everyday people.
Thank you.
A small but vocal few persisted in touting their contrary opinion which is fine but mislead. The fact that Asher Moses reported an inflammatory comment by a local lawyer may be necessary to be seen as neutral reporting, but his position that there may be doubts about the integrity of our patent claim are truly unfounded.
For the record:
- Patent trolls do not spend 18 years building business that they are only trying to defend.
- We only took action after it was blatantly published by Microsoft exactly what they were doing.
- If we were patent trolls, do you think we would go after the biggest software company in the world by choice?
- If we were only in it for a quick buck, why would we pick the most expensive case to fight first?
Come on.

Sydney Morning Herald Article Today
After speaking to Asher Moses from the Sydney Morning Herald yesterday, he reported on the new Uniloc suits on the SMH.COM.AU website today.
It's amazing that everyone is so supportive of what Uniloc (and I...) are trying to do. Even though there are a handful of ridiculous murmurs calling Uniloc a patent troll in the US, everyone seems to understand that you can't lay claim to a patent and then walk away from it as soon as things get a bit hard.
Here are some of the quotes I gave to Asher:
- It was reported that I list 140 inventions on my site.... actually its projects and inventions.Some of these were not what I would consider an invention including the Shadesavers I worked on with my brother... it was a novel idea but I don't think qualified as an invention.
- Also the Collaboration for eBay is quoted as having applications in the Lottery and gambling space. For the record I personally do not agree with or want to support gambling in any way. However, the article quite rightly reports that the invention could be used for that purpose though if I was implementing it would never use it that way.
Monday, August 2, 2010
Uniloc is now enforcing its patent rights with others besides Microsoft.
As I am not on the board at Uniloc and not privy to a lot of non public information about the company, I learned along with a lot of you that Uniloc has gone to court with another group of large software publishers including Sony and McAfee.
Even though I spent most of my time preparing for the Microsoft case before I left Uniloc to become a full-time inventor, I knew this kind of thing was on the cards and really what else can Uniloc do?
As I said in ABC's Australian Story, you cant decide to file a patent and then just let it flap in the wind. It's a gutsy thing for the guys at Uniloc to do and I fully support them.
Yes, I am a shareholder, and yes there is money involved in winning these cases but there is also a financial return in reclaiming money stolen from a bank. It's not a way to make a quick buck, its just a way to get justice when someone just takes something that isn't theirs and is forced to pay you for what they took.

Uniloc vs Microsoft
In 2003 Ric Richardson became aware of a possible infringement of the 216 patent by certain Microsoft products. Shortly after this Ric started working with Uniloc management and the firm of Mintz Levin to protect Uniloc's patent rights.
Latest news - current status
25th Feb 2010: At this time Ric is not aware of a date for the appeal however he is informed that Uniloc and Mintz Levin are steadily working towards securing an appeal court date.
The suit
At some time in 2003 Ric Richardson started noticing references to the way Microsoft's Software Activation Technology worked in web page references that related to large corporations that wanted to verify what information was and was not collected during the activation process. In Ric's mind this amounted to reasonable suspicion that Microsoft may be infringing his 216 patent. After that time Ric with the support of his team at Uniloc started working with legal representation to secure representation and file a suit.
Summary Judgement
After some years of preparation and exhaustive discovery Uniloc filed with the court to have their case heard. The judge, who was the judge who heard the eventual case in court decided to deliver summary judgement in favour of Microsoft citing that Uniloc did not have evidence to warrant taking Microsoft to court.
Appeal and reversal of Summary Judgement
As a result of the decision Uniloc appealed the decision and had the matter heard by the appeals court. Uniloc made two requests of the appeal court. Firstly to have the summary judgement reversed and that the judge be recused meaning that we requested that another judge be used to try the case. The appeal court subsequently overruled the judge and reversed his decision citing that there was material fact submitted in our discovery that warranted a jury trial. However the decision to recuse the judge was not upheld and the same judge who had erroneously given Microsoft summary judgment was to try the case in court. Uniloc submitted in its appeal that the use of a summer intern that had worked at Microsoft may have affected the judges decision in his role as a technical adviser to the judge.
The court case and the Jury Verdict
After some weeks at trial a jury subsequently awarded Uniloc $388 million dollars excluding damages or interest. The jury also decided that the patent infringement was intentional. Under US law it is the judge that determines the damages and level of interest to be paid by the defendant.
The Judges Decision
After some months, the judge made the unusual decision to invoke his special privileges under the US law and reverse the jury verdict giving the case to Microsoft citing the reason that there was not valid evidentiary reason for the jury to reach their decision or for Uniloc to have won the case.
The Appeal
Uniloc fairly quickly decided to appeal this decision and are actively working with the court to secure an appeal court date.

- abstract
We investigate regional differences of the effect of new business formation on employment growth in West Germany. We find an inverse 'u'-shaped relationship between the level of start-up activity and employment change. The main variables that shape the employment effects of new businesses in a region are population density, the share of medium level skilled workers, the proportion of Research and Development conducted in small businesses (entrepreneurial technological regime), the unemployment rate as well as the degree of specialization of the regional economy. However, indicators for education and innovation activity in the region proved not to be statistically significant. Conducting our analysis for manufacturing and services separately confirmed the pattern of our previous results only for manufacturing but not for services.

Amidst the releases of the recent Mel Gibson rants speculation has been given concerning the legitimacy of the tapes and how news source radaronline.com has received these explicit recordings. Atlanta's Star94 radio station interviewed the senior editor of radaronline.com, Dylan Howard, who answered many questions regarding these tapes.
Howard admits that he was "bamboozled" after hearing the full length of the recording and that these rants will be the smoking gun in the ongoing domestic violence investigation against Gibson. In the released recordings, Gibson admits to hitting girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.
When asked how the tapes were obtained by radaronline, Howard was elusive on whom but did adamantly confirm that they were received by a third party, independent source and that Grigorieva did not give these tapes to radaronline.
The question remains – Are there more tapes to be released? Howard states radaronline.com has received a total of nearly 30 minutes of tape and has so far only released 15-20 minutes worth. When Howard answers the question if there are more tapes, he replies radaronline is preparing to release two more segments and warns, "you haven't heard anything yet".

Oprah recently interviewed Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz to discuss his devotion and vision for his company, one with heart. He grew this coffee house significantly and offered his employees, those who worked 20 hours or more ownership in the business. As the company made its way treading new ground, Howard, feeling satisfied, decided to move on but in the aftermath the business struggled. It began to move away from Howard's vision. At this point, he stepped back in and put more energy into training and management; he needed it to be back to a grassroots heartfelt mindset.
Oprah read from his latest book, Onward. "Success is not sustainable if it's defined by how big you become. Large numbers that once captivated me, 40,000 stores are not what matter. The only number that matters is one; one cup, one customer, one partner, one experience at a time; we had to get back what mattered most…"
Howard did not create the company Starbucks but he did purchase this little store that once provided coffee beans to the community; at this time, Howard worked in sales. After the owners decided to sell, he was able to personalize his business and instill spirit.
He grew up in the housing projects of New York with caring parents who struggled through life challenges. His father was injured and, without medical insurance or worker's comp, lost his job. This experience was imprinted on Howard. Because of his parents struggle, his vision for his company was one that embraced and supported employee culture and values.
Some of his values he held onto as he built his storefront into an empire:
"Don't be threatened by people who are smarter than you.
Compromise anything but your core values.
[And], Everything matters."
He attributes his Starbuck's success to the human factor of this business.
The next time you drink a cup of coffee or tea, think of Howard Schultz and, perhaps, his story to inspire you.
Closing words from Howard as food for thought, "It's not what you do it's why you do it."

For the longest, Kenny Leon was Atlanta's best kept secret. As artistic director of the Alliance Theatre from 1988 to 2000, Leon spearheaded many notable productions including Aida, which landed on Broadway. Not one to play it safe, Leon raised many eyebrows when he revived A Raisin in the Sun with Sean "Diddy" Combs playing the pivotal role of Walter Lee Younger, Jr. for Broadway in 2004. At the Tony Awards, the play won big, as Phylicia Rashad, best known as Claire Huxtable from The Cosby Show, became the first African American actress to win the Tony for "Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play". Audra McDonald also won for "Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Play" for A Raisin in the Sun.
Later that same year, Rashad joined Leon as he opened up another August Wilson play, Gem of the Ocean, on Broadway. That one received five Tony nominations but no wins. In 2007, Leon opened August Wilson's Radio Golf on Broadway and that received four Tony nominations, without winning any. But the brief drought ended Sunday night as Leon's latest revival of an August Wilson work, Fences, won three Tonys and was nominated for ten total. The original 1987 staging of the play garnered six Tony nominations and delivered four wins, including 'Best Play". August Wilson also won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1987.
Denzel Washington plays disgruntled former Negro Leagues player Troy Maxson, now a garbage man, who is far from a perfect husband or father and Viola Davis plays Rose, his devoted wife. Having a star as big as Washington, a two-time Oscar winner, play such a role on Broadway is huge, especially for a play that communicates through African American actors. Therefore, Washington's Tony win for "Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play" is bigger than just him. Yes, it marks his first win for his first ever nomination but it also validates further the integral part stories of African American life and culture play within the context of American life and culture. Viola Davis, who starred in Tyler Perry's Madea Goes To Jail with Keshia Knight Pulliam and Derek Luke, has been greatly praised for her performance so it's little wonder that she won for "Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play". It was her second Tony win.
Although Leon, who spearheads True Colors, his own theatre company, did not personally win for "Best Direction of a Play," the win for "Best Revival of a Play" was huge. In Howard Pousner's AJC blog post on Leon after Fences's ten Tony nominations were announced, Leon states: 'I've done the work and I'm real proud of what's on the stage.' His personal honor was not what mattered most to him, however. ''it would be nice for the awards to meet the work,' he continued, 'so if they were to call our name, especially for best revival of a play, that would mean the most to me. Because that, to me, honors August Wilson in a really huge way.'
The ten nominations Fences received is a true testament to the power of this critical installment of Wilson's "Pittsburgh Cycle," also known as "The Century Cycle," which is a cycle of ten plays set in each decade of the 20th century set in his native Pittsburgh. Wilson passed in 2005 at the age of 60 but his legacy, as evidenced by the three critical Tony wins last night, remains rich.

College Hockey:Season Preview: Colgate Red Raiders
"At Colgate this year we are going to find out what life is like after Andy McDonald," head coach Don Vaughan said. "You just don't replace a guy like that."
You certainly don't replace a guy like McDonald. An All-American, Hobey Baker finalist and ECAC Player of the Year, McDonald captained last season's Colgate squad to one of the most successful finishes in Red Raider history. But as with any collegiate program, student-athletes graduate: such was the case for McDonald and six other Red Raiders. That would make a lot of coaches nervous, but not Vaughan.
"We graduated six very good players, yet we still have nine seniors on this year's team," he said. "So we are top heavy with older guys. However a lot of these guys haven't had the opportunity to play in the big roles on your team and be the go-to guys. We'll see how some of them face that challenge this year."
A team laden with seniors with playoff experience is a team to envy in this day and age, but the coaches in the ECAC seem to have a little bit of a different view, picking the Red Raiders to finish sixth in the preseason poll. The Red Raiders did pick up three first-place votes in the preseason media poll.
"The media gave us three first-place votes and I don't think we're quite there yet," said Vaughan. "It's a catch-22. It's tough to be the frontrunner, and it always seems easier to come from the middle of the pack. We can't get caught up looking at polls and [at] last year."
But nonetheless, a team with seniors can't be overlooked, especially on the forward side, where the Red Raiders have seven seniors and two juniors. Leading the charge is Sean Nolan (19-18–37).
"You expect guys to step up and that's the nature of the game," said Vaughan of Nolan. "He played basically on one leg last season and he's somebody we'll turn to time and time again this season offensively and in the locker room."
Another returning 30-point scorer is Kevin Johns. Add to that mix 22-point scorer Chad MacDonald and junior Etienne Morin and the Red Raiders look to continue an offensive style despite possible change on the power play, where last season's unit was first in the ECAC and third in the nation in effectiveness.
"Losing three guys off of our top power-play unit (McDonald, Daryl Campbell and defenseman Mike Marostega) will, hurt but there are some others who have been waiting in the shadows for their chance. Now, they are going to have that opportunity," said Vaughan. "We will have to see how things come around. So much of any power play's success is execution, and we are going to have to work guys in and out until we find the right chemistry."
Indeed, chemistry is a key for the Red Raiders.
"The success that we had last year, [we had] for a lot of reasons, but one was the focus on the team," said Vaughan. "Last year, the team had the best chemistry of any that I have ever coached and that's the way it has to be with us.
"The challenge will be to be consistent and play every night like it was your last. Whether you lose one guy or six, the chemistry is going to change. How is this team going to come together and where is the adversity going to come from? We'll certainly face that this season.
"We'll continue to play our up-tempo style and hopefully keep the pucks out of our net."
In that net, the Red Raiders return junior Jason LeFevre. LeFevre had a 3.50 GAA and a .872 save percentage last season and with the graduation of Shep Harder will presumably get the full-time nod from Vaughan despite having a freshman backup to push him.
"Jason was one of the top prospects in the East and there is nothing that says he can't be," he said. "He is a quality goalie who played behind a goalie that came into his own last year. [Freshman] Dave Cann comes in highly touted, so there will be some good competition in the goal."
On defense, the Red Raiders' leader, Cory Murphy, could be in the Player of the Year hunt. The senior defenseman tallied 29 points last season (10-19–29).
— Colgate head coach Don Vaughan
Behind Murphy are Bryan Long, Ben Bryce and Steve Silversides and three freshmen in Rob Brown, Matt Nicholson and Tucker Veenis.
"Cory will be our quarterback back there and we have some great returning players," said Vaughan of his defense. "We have three first year [players] that will see time immediately and they're thrown right into the fire at Michigan.
"We will have a lot of speed and strength on defense this season and we will look to play up and in our opponent's end. The message for our team this season is that we will have to play team defense and work as a unit, and take pride in that area."
That pride starts at the IceBreaker Cup at Michigan, the team that knocked the Red Raiders out of the NCAA tournament last season in overtime after Colgate had an apparent game-winning goal waved off.
"That whole thing was an unfortunate situation, but the NCAA Rule Committee have taken the steps to ensure that that never happens again," said Vaughan. "It's a thing our guys will have to live with a long, long time."
And despite what Vaughan and others may say, a team that returns 17 players and nine seniors has to have that last game of 1999-2000 on its mind to start the season.
"It's so exciting for us to compete in the IceBreaker with such great company, and our team will certainly be competitive," said Vaughan, who then alluded to the controversial tourney game from last season. "There is some other motivation for some of our returning players, but we're focusing on this year."

This is a long term project with the vague idea that one day I may be able to compare advertised prices with the ultimate Land Registry sale price. I have decide to start at this time because I believe that the current ratio of "sold subject to contract" to unsold houses is unusually high, and this seems to me to portend an imminent crash (or possibly, another bubble!) And in about ten years time I might be thinking of buying something there.

On Tuesday, March 11 Wetpaint Entertainment posted an interview with actress Maisie Williams about what fans can expect from her character Arya Stark on the upcoming fourth season of "Game of Thrones," which begins airing next month.
Arya will be in a much darker place than in previous seasons, since she has just lost most of her family. She is still traveling with the Hound and has made a list of people she wants to kill. Williams described Arya as "a sponge soaking up habits and traits from everyone" much like she has already done with Jaqen H'ghar.
Arya will "pick up on the Hound's brutality" and that "fans may not like it but that's the way she is now" but the character will be more mature in the upcoming ten episodes. The sarcastic little girl is no more and it's even less likely that she will be reunited with her sister Sansa anytime soon. The character will still get the one liners that have provided some of the comic relief on the series.
Not having many previous acting roles, Williams have been praised for the role of Arya Stark, which has altered her personal life. She has to think twice about using social media and especially posting things on Twitter.
The first episode of season four, "Two Swords" will air on Sunday, April 6 at 9 p.m. on HBO. Tune in to find out which part of the second half of "Storm of Swords" will be featured in the episode. The ten episode season will air until the middle of June and a fifth season of the series has not been ordered.
