50,000 Bonus Qantas Points Ad
Travelling on Virgin Australia's flights to Los Angeles LAX or Abu Dhabi with its V Australia subsidary? We've got the lowdown on the very best seats to pick on the Boeing 777-300ER plane you'll find on the route.
The plane
V Australia flies its 777-300ER fleet on long-haul flights from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane to Los Angeles and Abu Dhabi. (Take a look at our Sydney-Los Angeles flight review to find out more about what you can expect on board.)
The plane is a stretched version of earlier 777s. That's especially beneficial at the pointy end, which is further away from the massive 777 engines, meaning a quieter flight.
If you're flying to Abu Dhabi on a Virgin Australia VA or DJ flight code, make sure that you're looking at the right plane here -- V Australia codeshares with Etihad from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, and you might well be on one of those planes instead. (Check out our guide to the best seats in business class on Etihad's A340-600, which it uses for those flights.)
The business class cabin
There are five rows of business class at the pointy end of the plane: four in a cabin behind the pilots and the exclusive row 5 in its own special mini-cabin.
Two, three, five or seven seats in Row 5 can be booked out if you really need privacy or want to live it up like a Hollywood star. (It's $5000 per seat, so better start saving.)
The seats are laid out in a 2-3-2 configuration, which means that passengers in A, E and K seats need to clamber over the aisle seat to get out.
The way the cabin is arranged, there's no row 4 on the right hand side of the plane, so seats H and K are slightly behind seats in the same row. So if you want to sit across the aisle from a travelling companion, pick B and D seats.
V Australia's business class seats are lie-flat seats, which recline flat but aren't parallel to the floor. We've reviewed them between Sydney and Los Angeles.
The best seats on the plane
1A 1B 1J 1K: we actually prefer these seats to row 5 when travelling solo: they're further forward so there's less engine noise, and you're further away from potential screaming children immediately behind row 5 in premium economy.
Row 5: a potentially private cabin? Yes, please. If you're a high-tier Velocity Rewards member you might even be able to persuade the check-in agent to block off the seat next to you if you take 5A or 5K. Then you can draw the curtains and spend the flight in your own little world. Bear in mind that the bar can immediately in front can get reasonably loud during the flight.
The worst seats on the plane
2E 3E 4E: these middle seats require you to clamber over one of the aisle seat passengers next to you, which is a pain. If there are only middle seats left, pick rows 1 or 5 since these are bulkheads at the front of each cabin, and have a bit of extra space to maneuver yourself in.
Row 4: right in front of the bar, sitting here means you might well be disturbed, especially if in an aisle seat. Try further up the cabin instead.

i got one and allthough i never soldered even a cableimade a successful build. thanks to an excellent step by step building guide and a very helpful community the project was a lot of fun. The synth engine has quite a unique sound and is perfectly fitted for modern electronic music styles. Another big plus is that the firmware develops and now you have even basic sample import and a triger out board is available for the modular heads. What i like most of the LXR is the UI and that you can use it as a midi step sequencer. And yes, it has a bitcrusher per instrument + a great "beat repeat" feature plus shuffle/swing.

RNC Suffers Rare Fundraising Defeat, Thanks to Shutdown
The Republican National Committee raised $7.1 million in September, but that figure fell $300,000 short of its Democratic counterpart, making September the first time in 17 months that the Democratic National Committee hauled in more money.
The RNC still has about twice as much cash on hand as the DNC — $11.2 million to $5.5 million, according to figures released by the RNC on Sunday.

And the DNC is over $17 million in debt, but the RNC is debt free.
The Democrats' lead is due to a surge in donations Sept. 30, when a two-day blast of "shutdown fundraising" brought in $850,000.
The DNC sent out hundreds of thousands of email pleas from President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, with an apocalyptic warning that Republicans were about to shut the U.S. government down in order to undo the president's key legislative victory, the Affordable Care Act. That brought in over 30,000 donors.
RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said that the RNC is continuing to build up an unprecedented ground game, to make important new hires, and to invest in data and technology.
"It's because of the strong support of our donors that we are able to build a permanent ground operation and ensure a year-round presence in communities all across America," said Mr. Priebus in a statement.

The NFL's best defense in the Seattle Seahawks goes up against the League's best offense in the Denver Broncos in Superl Bowl XLVIII at the nation's most energy efficient stadium — MetLife Stadium. Both teams stack up well on the field but do their home fields stack up as well environmentally as MetLife Stadium?
What follows is a play by play of the environmental measures undertaken by the Seahawks CenturyLink Field and the Broncos legendary Mile High Stadium now known as Sports Authority Field.
Broncos win the coin toss
The Denver Broncos win the pre-game coin toss based on their pre-game efforts. In 2008, the Broncos began a Green Team initiative to encourage green tailgating efforts before each home game promoting recycling and handing out trash bags. The Seahawks offer EV charging stations at CenturyLink Field. While they get points for looking forward there are more tailgaters than electric vehicles.
Seahawks score first with sustainability report: Seattle 7 Denver 0
Both teams talk a good environmental game but the Seattle Seahawks "Defend Your Turf" sustainability report is easy to find on their website. We're still looking for the Broncos Game Plan Green CSR. Seattle marches into the endzone uncontested.
Recycling efforts split the uprights: Seattle 10 Denver 3
Both teams trade field goals on their respective recycling initiatives. The Broncos bought a cardboard baler in 2008 and instituted stadium wide recycling in 2007. The Seahawks kick a chip shot field goal as their efforts are quantifiable — 94 percent of waste has been diverted from landfill. Up 47 percent from four years ago.
What did I miss at the snack bar? Seattle 17 Denver 6
You always miss something when you go and grab some munchies. The Seahawks score big by producing 5 million gallons of bio-diesel in 2012 and composting 100 percent of its food containers. The Broncos have been composting in the main kitchen since 2008. With no numbers to back up their efforts their drive stalls and they are forced to kick a field goal.
Lights out football! Seattle 24 Denver 13
The Seahhawks were the first NFL team to install solar panels that provide 30 percent of their energy needs. Arch lighting at CenturyLink Field has been converted to programmable LEDs for additional savings. A lighting retrofit in 2009 at Denver's Sports Authority Field was estimated to save 1.4 million Kwh annually. Both teams score big!
As we head to halftime: Seattle 27 Denver 13
Where does everybody go at halftime? Everybody goes! CenturyLink Field reduced its water use by 15 percent in 2012 and low-flow water fixtures save 1.3 million gallons of water per year.
The Broncos have the wind to their backs: Seattle 27 Denver 20
By partnering with Xcel Energy's Windsource Program the Broncos have purchased renewable wind energy to offset 100 percent of the electricity used to power all home games since the 2011 season.
Broncos score again: Seattle 27 Denver 27
An Energy Management Program at Sports Authority Field has resulted in an overall 11 percent energy usage reduction.
Seattle comes right back with a TD of their own: Seattle 34 Denver 27
The Seahawks see the Broncos 11 percent energy usage reduction and come right back with a 12 percent energy usage reduction of their own!
Final score: Seattle 37 Denver 27
Seattle puts the game out of reach in the dying seconds with a field goal for being a founding member of the Green Sports Alliance.
There you have it! The first Enviro Bowl champions are the Seattle Seahawks for their demonstrated sustainability efforts. When you look at the environmental numbers of the two teams, the Seahawks were prohibitive favorites.
We can only hope that the two teams facing off in Enviro Bowl II next year at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona are as environmentally aware as the Seattle Seahawks.
Enjoy the game!

Presidency rejects claims of Zuma's apartheid witchcraft
A media report that President Jacob Zuma practised witchcraft during apartheid was "ridiculous and misleading", says the presidency.
The Daily Sun newspaper reported on Friday that Zuma had told supporters in KwaNyamazane, Mpumalanga, that he used witchcraft to bewitch the Boers during apartheid.
Presidential spokesperson Mac Maharaj said in a statement that Zuma had told supporters that, while in exile in Swaziland, he used to infiltrate South Africa through the KwaNyamazane area to do underground political work.
"I used to practise witchcraft around here, bewitching the Boers during apartheid", Zuma reportedly said.
He said the underground operations in which Zuma participated were referred to as "ukuthakatha" [witchcraft], which implied bewitching the authorities by outwitting them.
"It appears that some journalists, who probably do not understand the isiZulu language, did a literal translation and lost the meaning," Maharaj said. – Sapa. .

ENTERPRISE, Ore. (AP) — Cleaning up after marijuana growers who planted one of the largest operations ever raided by police in Oregon is going to take time and money.
A multi-agency law enforcement team has removed or destroyed 91,000 marijuana plants from U.S. Forest Service land in a remote mountain ravine in northeastern Oregon.
Now the cleanup has fallen to the Forest Service — including the removal of piles of trash, camping gear, 54-pound bags of chemical fertilizer, insecticides and herbicides at the site in Wallowa County.
The agency is assembling a team of specialists to assess the environmental damage and plan the cleanup — including concerns that some of the fertilizer and insecticides might be toxic and dangerous to handle.
Six men are facing federal charges in the case.

Supports Prostate Function and Healthy Urine Flow
Hormonal Regulation
Hormones have a direct role in prostate functioning. Research demonstrates that plant extracts and minerals inhibit testosterone uptake by the prostate, its conversion to DHT, and subsequent binding to receptors within the prostate.
Cellular Regeneration
Used extensively in Europe and Asia for more than forty years, swedish flower pollen extract has demonstrated significant effects in maintaining proper prostate cell regeneration.
Soothing Mechanisms: Prostaglandin Synthesis
Certain plant compounds, such as flavonoids from soy and sterols from pollen extract, inhibit the metabolism of arachidonic acid. This influences prostaglandin synthesis, which is associated with comfort levels.
Bladder and Urinary Tract Health
Important to the health of the prostate is the whole environment of the bladder and urinary tract. The integrity of these tissues supports normal urine flow and prostate function.
Prostate Health
Studies show that dietary factors influence the overall health of the prostate. For example, the body naturally concentrates certain compounds in higher amounts in the prostate.
Antioxidant Defense
Oxidative stress (free radical damage) can trigger a host of destructive processes. Antioxidants play an important role in prostate functioning, including protection of cell membranes.

College Hockey:No. 8 Boston University hangs on to defeat No. 3 Denver
BOSTON — Going into the second period, No. 3 Denver trailed No. 8 Boston University by a score of 1-0, but had to feel optimistic. The Pioneers had outshot the Terriers 17-11 in the first period and began the second stanza on the power play.
The game appeared to be on the verge of a turning point.
And it was. Just not as the Pioneers might have imagined.
BU scored two shorthanded goals 43 seconds apart and added another goal within the first three minutes to take a 3-0 lead. Denver rallied with three goals in a hold-onto-your-hats third period, but never recovered from that outburst, losing 4-3 in front of 5,930 at Agganis Arena.
Corey Trivino and Matt Nieto each scored their third goal in three games for the Terriers, who got goals from five different forwards. Drew Shore stood out for the Pioneers with a goal and an assist.
"First of all, it was a hell of a game for us, and the third period was a hell of a game to watch for the fans," BU coach Jack Parker said. "I thought the game was physical. I thought the game was up and down. Our goaltender (Kieran Millan) played great and we took advantage of a couple of mishaps on the shorthanded goals. It was 1-0 and then all of a sudden it was 3-0. That was the turning point in the game, I thought.
"Then the next turning point in the game was when we got selfish and stupid in the end trying to get an empty-net goal instead of making sure they didn't score. But once they made it 4-3, we competed really hard."
For Denver coach George Gwozdecky, the weekend was an opportunity to test his team against two great Hockey East programs in Boston College and Boston University. The split decision was instructive.
"I'm glad we had a weekend like we did where we played two great opponents," Gwozdecky said. "Certainly, the Terriers were the better team tonight in a lot of areas. Certainly the second period was critical for them and for us.
"The biggest thing in my mind is we had a chance to evaluate our team in some pretty challenging situations last night and tonight. We've got a power play that goes 0-for-9 or 0-for-10 and gives us a couple of shorties. We thought that (the power play) was going to be a strength and I still think it's going to be a strength of ours. Certainly we didn't show it this weekend."
BU took a 1-0 lead on a four-on-four goal in the first, when Cason Hohmann flipped a neutral-zone pass to Alex Chiasson zooming across the blue line for a breakaway and a goal.
"Certainly we played a lot looser defensively than we did last night," Gwozdecky said.
Nineteen seconds into the second period, BU scored their first shorthanded goal on a mistake by goalie Adam Murray. The netminder got the puck behind his goal line and attempted to bank it off the back boards to a waiting defenseman, but he got poor wood on the puck. Trivino swooped around him and tucked in a wraparound before Murray could cover the far post.
"I don't think there's any question that our best player up and down the lineup was Corey Trivino," Parker said. "He was absolutely fabulous and he's having a great start to this year. He's just what we want him to be."
Just 43 seconds after Trivino's goal, BU struck again while still a man down. Charlie Coyle made a beautiful saucer pass to Nieto to break him in alone for a backhander and a goal.
"BU did a real good job of transitioning against us," Gwozdecky said. "Many times they caught us chasing instead of fronting them."
Less than two minutes later, BU made it 4-0 when an Adam Clendening shot was blocked by traffic, only to have Wade Megan bury it in the slot.
The Terriers now have outscored the opposition by a 7-0 margin in the second period this season.
That hasn't been the story in the third period.
Denver got their first goal at 6:01 on a wraparound by Luke Salazar. Then BU goalie Millan gave the Pioneers a gift, yielding a goal on a shot from outside the blue line by John Lee.
Denver pulled their goalie early for the extra attacker and BU seemed to get distracted trying to get the empty-netter. This led to a few bad reads and a goal by Drew Shore to make the last two minutes much more interesting than Terriers fans would've liked.
The Pioneers called a timeout in the waning seconds and then promptly won an offensive-end draw, only to have the play whistled for a Denver holding penalty that had the DU bench up in arms.
Beau Bennett briefly tugged on the arm of a BU defender, impeding him momentarily, but Parker noted afterwards that these calls were a new point of emphasis this year because such interference had "crept into the game."
BU (2-1-0) will try to continue their nonconference success with a home game against Holy Cross next Saturday, while Denver (1-1-0) opens their WCHA schedule with a home pair against Minnesota State next weekend.

I've been to an ENT specialist & told no cure for tinnitus. Just looking for relief & if the Reltus devise was helpful.
Hi Lynn, there may be no cure for tinnitus but there are several new solutions that provide relief to patients at our hearing center in Hendersonville, Tennessee. Do you have hearing loss as well, or just the tinnitus? We always recommend starting with the lowest cost solutions, which are apps for smartphones that range from free to a few dollars. These turn your phone into a noise generator that will distract your mind from the annoying tinnitus when you want to go to sleep or are in other situations where the quiet would normally cause your mind to focus on the tinnitus. Relax Noise 3 is available at the Google Store, and there are others as well. https://play.google.com/store/apps/de.... Hearing aids now have tinnitus devices as options that can be incorporated right into the hearing aid. Also Sound Cure is offering a therapy, but it is fairly time consuming and costly. Hope this all helps.

Hi Lynn. True that there is no cure. However, there are suppliments that can reduce the ringing. I have been using LypoFlavonoid PLUS for about 4 years now. My Tinnitus was so bad that it would wake me up and I was unable to get back to sleep. After just 6 days of using LF+ (they say give it 60 days), I noticed a drop in noise level. Now, it is so low that I hardly notice it. But, LF+ is not cheap. A 100 count bottle (2 pills, 3x a day) lasts less than 2 weeks. However, for the past year, I have been taking 2 pills, 2 x a day and it seems to be doing ok.
Good luck.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish women's basketball team lost a key player in their quest to reach the NCAA women' s basketball national championship game for the third time in the last four years. Notre Dame announced , on April 1, that senior forward Natalie Achonwa tore the ACL in her left knee during the Fighting Irish's 88-69 victory over Baylor on Sunday night.
Achonwa injured her knee with just under five minutes left in the game. She will undergo surgery to repair the knee at a later date.
Achonwa caught a pass in the paint from Kayla McBride wand was bumped from behind by Baylor's Chardonae Fuqua at the 4:51 mark. She yelled as she fell to the ground and grabbed her left knee.
Achonwa was third on the team in scoring and the Irish's top rebounder (7.7) this season. She set career-highs in scoring (14.9), field goal percentage (61.1), assists (2.8) and blocked shots (1.2).
For her career, Achonwa ranks 12th in school history with 1,546 points, as well as top-10 rankings on the Fighting Irish all-time lists for rebounds (4th - 970), double-doubles (tied-5th - 28), field goal percentage (6th - .562) and games played (3rd - 145).
Freshman Taya Reimer will likely start in place of Achonwa while Notre Dame will likely use a four-guard lineup a considerable amount of time. This would mean Michaela Mabrey and Madison Cable would see more playing time.
Notre Dame (35-0) has made their fourth consecutive Final Four and sixth in program history. The Fighting Irish will take Maryland on April 6, at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn. The Terrapins (28-6) defeated Louisville 76-73 in Louisville, on April 1, to reach the Final Four for the first time since 2006.
Notre Dame blew a 22-point lead to hold off Maryland 87-83 in the teams only meeting this year. Jewell Loyd led the Irish with a season-high 31 points and Kayla McBride chipped in with 20 points.

A blogger's readership increases with his activity, while bloggers who read back proportionally fewer of their readers tend also to be more active. We find evidence that those bloggers who read back proportionally fewer of their readers have less readers than bloggers who reciprocate more, but tend to receive more comments per posts. jportal_jpjournal_00000016 2010-03-26T13:31:09.635Z 2010-12-17T11:54:18.225Z

What the author failed to research was that having excess weight plays a major role in hormonal imbalance which then plays a larger role in the promotion and development of disease. When a person has properly balanced body weight composition, they are then more apt to be hormonally balanced relative to the hormones affected. Such enzymes and hormones affected are interleukine 6, tumor necrosis factor, insulin, increased free fatty acid activity, leptin, and many others. I am glad to hear the author saying it is important and/or more important to focus on being active however what we put in our mouth plays a direct role in what happens inside the body such as increased inflammation (oxidation of blood and cholesterol), fluid retention (increased blood pressure and kidney stress), increased insulin production (another vascular pro-inflammatory) which is in response to insulin resistance and elevated blood sugar.
The American diet ("nutrition" as I prefer to refer to it) is on average close to 30:1 pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory respectively. When we think of "diets" such as the Vegan or the Mediterranean, these are in the 4:1 and 6:1 ratios. When we are eating foods that have a high inflammatory response in the body we are then open for increased disease such as heart disease, diabetes, and even cancer. So no, we shouldn't "just let our weight fall where it may"! Where it may help to address this issue instead of ignoring it would be the psychology of why people do not continue their nutritional changes when they are successful or even before they have had success and are struggling with weight. The biggest problem is we do not view and assess having excess weight as a health threat until it causes a disease or health condition. Even then, only sometimes does this work.
For instance, if you were diagnosed with cancer, this is a very real threat that will impact your life significantly. Our brain assesses this as an immediate threat and we want to deal with it, as we should. When someone is first diagnosed with elevated blood sugar or an actual diagnosis of diabetes, many more times than not the person dismisses this as something not of a real immediate threat. It is part of the brain that is responsible for this and what will help are more professionals providing scientific evidence into easy to learn education strategies for the public to view conditions such as diabetes as a threat. Once people understand what various chronic diseases are and how they work, they then are able to assess them as a viable threat and then decide to make changes in managing them or preventing them through lifestyle change such as nutritional changes. This is what the Health Belief Model of behavior change is based on and works very well. Education needs to be paired with a strategy that connects the person and their emotions to the problem. Otherwise the education is just information that is discarded by the brain or in the trash. Please address this and set the record straight to prevent those from believing it is just fine to allow increased body weight, particularly central body weight. The waist circumference measure is an easy way to assess individual risk. From belly button around the waist back to the belly button, men should be <40 inches and women <35 inches.

I was so inspired by the recent article about you and A Grape in the Fog that I had to write and congratulate you on having the courage to listen to your inner voice. Having recently left my position as manager, strategic communications planning with the American Cancer Society to provide marketing for small nonprofits without a marketing department, I certainly understand how important - and fulfilling - it is to follow your dreams.
Kudos to you and much success for many, many years to come!
--Linette SingletonI frequent my local B&N every weekend. This is the first time I actually picked up your magazine, and it was the last one there! There were your regular Vogue, Glamour and Marie Claire, there but only one of your magazines left. I'm ashamed to admit, I thought it may be too old for me, but I couldn't have been more wrong.

More Travelers Expected to Hit the Roads for Labor Day
Written by Lauren McMillen
Last updated on August 25, 2014 @ 9:36AM
Created on August 23, 2014 @ 8:19PM
Labor Day is just around the corner and if you plan on hitting the highway next weekend, you'll have plenty of company along the way.
This Labor Day is expected to be the busiest since 2008. According to AAA, nearly 35 million Americans are planning to get away for the long holiday weekend.
Travelers are expected to head off more than 50 miles away to their destinations. The rising gas prices are always a worry for travelers, but most are expected to travel by car this year. Gas prices are at an all time low for the summer season, which is creating less pain at the pump.
5 News talked to some of you who plan to stay local, but others plan to head off for some last summer fun.
"On Labor Day weekend I hope to get away for a few days with my family. I'm going to try to have some fun," said Sean Hoskinson, Marion County resident.
"I'll probably stay at home instead of getting out on the road. There's a lot of traffic and I would just rather stay at home on the holidays," said Arnold Keesucker, Barbour County resident.
But with the extra traffic comes more accidents. Emergency official encourage drivers to be extra alert and aware when they take to the roads.
"Drivers need to be aware of their surroundings and to what's happening. We are at the end of summer and a lot of people are still trying to squeeze in a lot of things. Families are traveling and they just need to make sure that they are rested and are aware, " said Chief John Elko, West Milford Fire Dept.
AAA says travelers should expect to see an increase when it comes to plane tickets and hotel rates.

Diet expert Dr. Michael Mosley swallowed tapeworms as part of an experiment to examine their effectiveness for weight loss, the Telegraph reported Jan. 31.
Dr. Mosley, author of the Fast Diet, infected himself with several parasites to determine their health benefits as part of a four-hour BBC documentary called "Michael Mosley Infested: Living with Parasites."
In addition to swallowing three tapeworm cysts, Mosley stuck a leech on his arm, and infected himself with lice. Mosley collaborated with scientists at England's Salford University, who are studying whether parasites provide any health benefits to humans.
As bizarre as it sounds, media reports over the years claimed people have successfully lost weight by eating tapeworms, but the procedure has not received mainstream approval.
In 2012, Dr. Mosley lost 20 pounds in nine weeks by following his Fast Diet (or 5:2 Diet), an intermittent-fasting regimen that alternates five days of "fasting" (eating 500 to 600 calories) with days of normal eating. Research shows that intermittent fasting produces rapid weight loss, melts body fat, improves brain health and releases anti-aging hormones.
Michael did not experience any weight loss after swallowing the tapeworms, which he obtained from infected cows in Kenya, and in fact, gained two pounds.
"Tapeworms have been traditionally associated with weight loss, but my weight went up," said Mosley, 56. "I think the worm was actually encouraging me to eat more, to keep itself alive. I ate a lot of chocolate. So anyone who is thinking of popping parasites as a weight-loss device should think twice."
Fortunately, Mosley didn't suffer any health consequences as a result of his intentional parasite infestation, but warned viewers against undertaking such experiments on their own.
"It was rather horrible," he said. "My wife wasn't too keen on the idea, either. I wouldn't recommend buying something on the Internet and infecting yourself. Heaven knows where it's been."
"Michael Mosley Infested" airs on BBC Four Feb. 18.

Sofia Coppola is currently in talks to direct new "Little Mermaid" live-action movie. The 42-year-old director, screenwriter and producer is talking to Universal about bringing the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale to the big screen. According to The Christian Science Monitor on Mar. 19, the script was written by Kelly Marvel of "Fifty Shades of Grey" fame.
However, the project is described by THR (The Hollywood Reporter) as kid-friendly and designed to appeal to a wide range of demographics.
Joe Wright, director of "Anna Karenina," was originally attached, but is now focusing on and adaptation of "Peter Pan." Disney had great success with their animated adaptation, "The Little Mermaid." It is hoped that Coppola has similar success.
Sofia Coppola is known for her recent films, 2013's "The Bling Ring" and 2003's "Lost in Translation," for which she won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. In addition to being famed, Academy Award-winner in his own right director Francis Ford Coppola's only daughter, she has really broken out on her own.
Sofia Coppola is also an actress, appearing in all three "Godfather" films. She was married to director Spike Jonze from 1999 to 2003. It was rumored that "Lost in Translation" was about her marriage to Jonze falling apart, which ended in divorce the same year her film came out.

Bulgaria is a gateway to the European Union for refugees fleeing Syria via Turkey, many crossing the border illegally to seek asylum. The impoverished Balkan state has seen a considerable refugee influx over the past months, with authorities saying the number of asylum seekers in the country may reach up to 20,000 by the end of the year. Fears are growing that with deteriorating living conditions of the refugees the situation could soon turn into a humanitarian crisis. The country has asked and was promised EU aid to deal.

In the morning you might have some time to eat some healthy breakfast food. Here is a time to add some breakfast to a complete work of art. This month there is culinary time to set a breakfast dish that has everything of your morning energy that is needed.
Take one egg and add to your automatic egg poacher. Next add a 1/2 a cube of butter and whip to creamed butter. Set this aside for the added garnish. Chop some red onions very small and mix with some cubes of ham. Cook one minute. Add these ingredients with the creamed butter.
Now add this mixed garnish to the poached egg. Top it. For added appeal cube some bread about 10 cubes and add to the side of the dish. This culinary dish is ready and is quick for the morning time when you want to relax for a short while before the big busy day.
This dish is great in the carb area and will add the necessary nutrients that you need especially in the morning. One small cup of tea with a twist of lemon and lime can add the great touch to this dish. Culinary cooking has so much that you can do and add throughout each dish.
Some herbs if to add to this dish is also a great addition. The taste of herbs adds so much in its taste and its creative interest. Some extra planning to add to this dish is the placing of the easy to do automatic poacher. Some times these type of kitchen add-ons saves a lot of time.

Also, check out this video below of coach Kevin Morris talking about camp after a few days of action. The Minutemen were in upper pads by the middle of the week.
"The kids have been working hard and we are working them hard," said Morris, who is eyeing the season-opener vs. William & Mary on Sept. 4. "We are talking about getting this team to mature in a hurry, going into the initial part of our season, which is very strong. We are pushing them very hard and they are responding very well.
"We want to be championship level in everything we do. We are not taking anything less and we are going to point it out if its not up to standard, we are going to correct it and we are going to get better right after that. We are not leaving anything undone."

The Fort Hood shooting on April 2 has left at least one person dead (the shooter) and several others injured (some reports suggest eight people and others claim 15 or more). According to CNN, the scene is still active but the shooter is dead. At this point it's unknown whether the gunman took his own life or was shot by police but he is, in fact, deceased.
Authorities are now working to clear the military base before lifting the lockdown order. Those living on the base as well as those living in surrounded areas have been advised to "shelter in place," to stay inside their homes and away from windows and doors.
The Fort Hood shooting sent several people to nearby hospitals for emergency medical attention but hospitals couldn't confirm how many patients were being brought in or how severe their injuries were. An exact number of patients could be released later this evening. Fort Hood has 40,000 military personnel and another 10,000 civilians who call the base home.
Reports of a second shooter don't hold much validity as police say that people might be mistaking first responders as an armed gunman. A motive will be something authorities will work to uncover in the coming days.
More on the Fort Hood shooting in the video above.

- Alterations: Yes, there is a slight alteration where extra fabric was added to lengthen the straps at the top of the dress to increase more space for the chest. But this extra fabric can easily be removed. A bustle was added so that the train can be buttoned up and shortened.

Mobile Suit Gundam is one of the most popular mecha anime franchises in the world. Gundam Build Fighters, which ended earlier this year, was extremely popular with fans as it told a different Gundam Story ... one dealing with the love of Gunpla while still fighting each other's machines in a game. There was mystery and intrigued added to the fun. And now, it's success had brought about the creation of the second season, Gundam Build Fighters Try!
Gundam Build Fighters Try will be taking place seven years after the original season. This new season will follow a trio of characters from Sei's(one of the main characters from the first season) old school, Seiho Academy who form a new Gunpla Club together: the club president, Fumina Hoshino; transfer student and martial artist Seikai Kamiki, and Gunpla Builder Yumma Kousaka. Gunpla battles are now fought in teams and is more popular than ever ...except at Seiho Academy till Fumma reforms her club with her two new members. The three fight together to get to the top.
Feel free to watch the trailer I attached to this article. I will wait four minutes for you . . .
Did you watch it? Here's some facts and impressions I got from the trailer: Seikai will be piloting the Build Burning Gundam; which makes sense. Gundams in G Gundam (such as Burning Gundam) used martial arts and other fighting techniques besides guns. Seikai is a martial artist. And G Gundam is one of the more popular alternate universe Gundams. He definitely seems like he will have a big role in the anime as we see his Gundam in the majority of the scenes here. The fact that his Gundam has the world Build in front of it confirms that he is the main character of the show.
Also, he knows a marital art called Jigen Haoh. Jigen is the Japanese word for "Dimensional." And we did have someone from another dimension last season ... with red hair like his. Actually, he looks an awful lot like Reiji. I'm just saying.
Yuuma is a genius Gunpla builder and that is no surprise. He's the little brother of season one's China Kousaka, who is the romantic interest of lead character, Sei. The fact that he is there gives a definite connection to the first season. The fact that his character was foreshadowed since season one helps connect the world further. He'll be piloting Lightning Gundam ... and BOY, is it gorgeous. It has elements of Zeta Gundam, which makes me excited. The fact that he's a Gunpla Building Genius also carries over last season's focus that it is not just fighting in a Gunpla that is important, but also the actual building of it. There were already hints of story that Yuuma actual stopped Gunpla Building or had an issue with it from early press release and one small short that was released on the Gundam Official Youtube Channel, Gundaminfo, that has China, a year before this season starts, writing a letter to Yuuma asking him about that. Also, Yuuma seems to have his sister's meekness.
Fumina is the one we know least about. We know she loves Gunpla. We know she loves Gunpla Battles. She's the President of the Gunpla Club in Seiho Academy and, according to Gundam Wikia and Anime News Network, the only member of the club at the start of the series. Fumina's Gundam is the Super Deformed Winning Gundam. SD Gundam has gotten its following with multiple SD Gundam series and, it is another great connect to last season to Knight Gundam. The Winning Gundam can transform to jet mode. With the team together, she can now participate in the tournament.
Now, other information is that this is a team tournament this time around. We should see plenty of fighters, but we will be looking at rival teams. The doors are certainly open for a return of the season one characters. There are certainly plenty of connections to them. Yet, we will have to see what is to come with this show when it debuts on October 8th, 2014.
Sunrise is, of course, back with a vengence as Gundam's 35th anniversary continues with this second season. Gundam Build Fighters Try will be directed by Shinya Watada, who worked on last season as well as Gundam 00 and, what was considered a predecessor to Build Fighters, Gundam AGE. Returning to do music for the show are Asami Tachibana and Yuuki Hayahsi.
Get ready to Try again with Gundam Build Fighters Try this fall, as it will be streamed on Gundaminfo.

Plant and Krauss: Rock and Bluegrass Collide
Song List
- "Please Read the Letter"
- "Rich Woman"
- "Killing the Blues"
Whether singing for Led Zeppelin or on his own, Robert Plant has done more to establish the iconic image of a "rock god" than perhaps any other frontman. Led Zeppelin was, and still is, one of the most successful rock groups in history; its combination of impeccable musicianship, earth-shattering live performances and innovative songwriting helped ensure its place as a towering influence in rock 'n' roll.
Alison Krauss is one of the most accomplished bluegrass musicians of the last few decades. As a singer and fiddler, Krauss has been instrumental in bringing folk and bluegrass music to a wide audience.
Together, Plant and Krauss have released Raising Sand. Recorded in Nashville and Los Angeles with producer T Bone Burnett, the album features the two singers interpreting blues, R&B, folk and country songs by classic songwriters such as Townes Van Zandt, Mel Tillis and Doc Watson.
This segment originally aired on Nov. 22, 2007.

IATI Annual Review: Israel ICT Industry 2012
Israel Advance Technology Industry Annual Review: Israel ICT Industry 2012
The high-tech industry is undergoing one of its most significant changes in decades, driven by the emergence of a new technology platform that paves the way for a new breed of solutions. Israeli ICT companies are prominent participants in this transformation.
The global high tech industry is undergoing fundamental changes, driven by the emergence of a new technology platform for growth and innovation. Built on smartphones, tablets and other connected devices, mobile broadband networks, cloud services, Big Data, social media, and a range of other technologies, the new model of computing is expected to revolutionize the ICT industry. Despite global economic uncertainty due to the expanding European debt crisis and concerns over U.S. economic growth, the pace of technological change appears unrelenting, creating substantial new opportunities both for the ICT industry and for the industries it serves.
One of the key characteristics of the emerging computing platform is that it enables the introduction of advanced technologies into new areas, which traditionally have fallen behind the technology curve. As technology seeps into more and more aspects of our everyday lives and becomes accessible for an expanding range of usages, innovation is increasingly required across all industries in order to keep up with rapidly changing environments.
Technology innovation has been the cornerstone of the success of the Israeli hightech industry over the last decades. Today, Israeli companies are playing a key role inshaping the new computing model, and across all layers of the technology stack - from the chip level all the way up to the application. Building on the legacy of companies that pioneered new technologies and became industry leaders in various fields, Israeli high-tech companies continue to excel.
The numbers are instructive: Approximately sixty Israeli companies are currently traded on NASDAQ, one of the largest numbers of companies listed for non-U.S. countries. Israel has consistently been a leader in categories such as expenditure on R&D as a percentage of GDP, percentage of engineers among residents, and others. Israeli start-up companies continue to raise significant amounts of funding from local and global investors. In fact, Israel is leading the world in terms of per capita VC investment, and is second only to the U.S. in terms of number of start-ups.
Israel's established excellence in technology development has been recognized by the global industry. Many of the leading international high-tech companies have established R&D activities in Israel. Intel, Microsoft, Cisco, IBM, and others have located their first development centers outside the U.S. in Israel. In addition, following its acquisition of Israeli flash memory chip designer Anobit, Apple has recently established its first hardware R&D facility outside the U.S. in Israel. These companies and many others continue to develop major product lines in their Israeli facilities. Furthermore, many Israeli executives are currently serving in management positions at international technology companies.
In many cases, major international technology vendors started their local R&D activity following the acquisition of Israel firms. Hundreds of Israeli companies have been acquired over the last decade. In parallel with the global market, after experiencing a significant decrease in M&A activity due to the global economic crisis in 2009-2010, there has been a renewed surge in acquisitions of Israeli ICT companies in the last 1-2 years. In 2011, 83 Israeli ICT companies were acquired for a total disclosed value of more than $5 billion. This trend has continued into 2012, as approximately 40 Israeli ICT companies were acquired in the first half of the year for a total disclosed value of more than $3.5 billion (not including Cisco's $5 billion acquisition of NDS, originally an Israeli start-up company).

From the central train/bus station - Take the tram no. 01 right in front of the station and drive to the main tram station 'Bascarsija' in the old city. (Ticket price is less than 1 Euro). There is a small mini-bus station just 20 meters north of the tram station where you exit. Here you can take the mini-bus no. 58 headed for 'Mihrivode' (arrives every 30 minutes) and exit on the second bus stop. Hostel Ville is just across the street from where you exit the mini-bus.
You can also take the Taxi service from airport (7 to 10 Euro depending on the time of the day) or from the central train/bus station (3 to 4.5 Euro depending on the time of the day).
If you have already arrived at the Bascarsija by some other means, you just need to go to the Sebilj monument or the main tram-station 'Bascarsija' (it's the same place). 50 meters north is the place where 'Safvet-bega Basagica' streets starts. You just follow the street north uphill for 900 meters (two minutes drive) until you arrive at building no. 93 on the left side of the street labeled 'Hostel Ville'.

I'm doing a web site for a client, and he requested a PDF page flip on it. I've been looking for sometime, but can't quite find anything appropriate.
I have the URLs to PDFs in my database, and I think the simplest way to implement this would be to just pass the URL to the PDF through HTML so it dynamically opens any PDF from the DB.
Deas anybody have any good free PDF page flip engine? Thanks in advance for any input!

The Chris Canty Foundation is a non-profit organization that exposes youth K-12 to health and fitness activities, educational programs, and community service projects in order to help them grow as individuals. Founded in North Carolina in 2010 by Chris Canty, a defensive end for the Baltimore Ravens, the Chris Canty Foundation was established on the core values of hope, service, respect, justice, and compassion.
On May 4, the Foundation presented the Pre-Tournament Party for its 2014 Champions Golf Classic at Midtown sports lounge Suite 36. Guests networked and participated in a silent auction while enjoying hosted cocktails and platters of hors d'ouevres. Auction items included autographed sports memorabilia, music items such as an iconic, autographed photo of Jersey boys Bruce Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi performing together, and a guitar signed by Grammy Award-winning artist Bruno Mars. All donations benefited the Foundation.
Chris Canty Foundation President and Chairman Joseph Canty told party guests that their charity would allow more youth to attend the organization's summer camp-- the Camp of Champions. The camps take place in Charlotte, North Carolina and New York City in June and July. The Camp of Champions allows youth ages 8-16 to increase their skills in football, and teaches them important life skills such as communication, teamwork, and sportsmanship.
The 2014 Champions Golf Classic took place at the elite Alpine Country Club in Demarest, New Jersey on May 5. Golfers of all levels played alongside celebrities and top athletes, and participated in a putting contest, "closest to the pin" contest, and a longest drive challenge.
The Golf Classic was hosted by WNYW New York newscaster Duke Castiglione, and also featured breakfast for the players, on course food and beverages, branded polos and gym bags, and a post-event cocktail hour. Sponsors of the Classic included Merrill Lynch, Next Level Sports & Business Group, Jones Lang LaSalle, Benzel Busch, and others.
On the event's website, Chris Canty described why he began the philanthropic organization.
"We started this foundation to expose youth to opportunities similar to those that I was fortunate to have growing up. This is all about developing future leaders," he said.

STANFORD, Calif. – Stanford field hockey's Hope Burke earned an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship, becoming the only Cardinal athlete to receive the accolade, as announced by the NCAA recently.
Burke, a double-major in history and African-American studies, was recognized during Thursday's Stanford Athletic Board Awards on her accomplishment. Following this weekend's Commencement Ceremony, Burke will travel to Baltimore, Md., to begin teaching for Teach for America.
Burke had an outstanding senior season on the field, leading Stanford with nine goals and tying for the team-lead in points with 22.
To qualify for an NCAA postgraduate scholarship, student-athletes must excel academically and athletically, be in their final year of eligibility and plan to pursue graduate study. Student-athletes must also maintain at least a 3.2 grade-point average and be nominated by their institution's faculty athletics representative.
The NCAA Postgraduate Scholarships were created in 1964 to promote and encourage education by rewarding the NCAA's most accomplished student-athletes.
