Japan's Consumers Still Cautious
Japan's economic future is increasingly dependent on the nation's consumers. But the latest data paints an unclear picture of whether consumer spending will be robust enough to bolster growth over the longer term.
The economy for long has been driven by exports. That appears no longer to be the case. Japan's economy grew at an annualized pace of 1% in the fourth quarter, below expectations of a 2.8% increase. A main reason for the disappointment was the poor performance of exports.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's policy of loose money, in place for over a year, has helped weaken the yen and bolster exporters' profits and the stock market. The country's consumer prices are rising after years of deflation.
But the policy hasn't led to sharply stronger exports. That's partly because many Japanese firms have built factories offshore to benefit from cheaper labor. Others have yet to reduce prices in dollar terms, fearing the yen's weakness will be short-lived, and so export volumes haven't increased as much as expected.
Instead, 'Abenomics' so far has worked largely through higher stock prices, bolstering consumption.
Consumption was indeed a positive factor in the fourth quarter. Household spending grew 0.5% on quarter. But that was below an expected 0.7% rise and shows that consumers remain timid.
The spending numbers look especially weak given that Japan plans to raise its sales tax in April, and consumers are expected to be front-loading purchases ahead of that increase.
"The surge in spending ahead of the consumption tax hike has yet to come," Capital Economics, a London-based macroeconomics research company, said in a research note to clients.
There were some signs of higher outlays. Consumers have been rushing to order cars, fearful that a surge in demand ahead of the tax is creating long waiting times. Cars delivered after April will be subject to the new tax.
Sales of new cars surged 11.4% on quarter in the October-December period, leading to a 17.0% jump in consumption of durable goods.
But other areas of consumption were weak. Consumption of semi-durable items–mostly apparel– was flat, as customer traffic slowed at retail outlets amid a wet and warmer-than-usual weather between October and December.
The weather may not be the only reason. Government economists suspect that consumers may be reining in spending on some items in order to save money for durable goods they plan to purchase as the tax increase nears. "You cannot increase spending on everything, just because the sales tax is going to increase," a government economist said.
Meanwhile, consumption of non-durable goods, such as food and utilities, declined 1.4%. Imported food prices have increased because of the yen's decline.
Some economists warn that consumption won't take off until workers are able to gain wage increases, making them feel more secure. The government is pressuring companies to pass on some of their increased profits by raising salaries in the spring. But many firms are reluctant to do so until they are sure prices won't slump again as Japan's monetary stimulus wears off.
In the meantime, wages grew just 0.1% in the fourth quarter after adjustment for inflation.
"Lack of wage growth may be limiting growth in private consumption," said Shuji Tonouchi, an economist with Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities.
Others say they expect further buying in the first quarter of 2014 as consumers purchase appliances ahead of the tax rise.
"We expect full-fledged rush demand from consumer spending from now onward," Goldman Sachs said in a research note.
There hasn't been much data yet for January. New auto sales increased 28% on year in the month, and were at their highest level in January since 1997, the last time Japan raised its sales tax.
According to GfK Japan, a market research company, sales of refrigerators jumped 53% from a year ago in January, while those for air conditioners surged 54%.
Even so, sales are likely to fall again in the second quarter as the new prices kick in. Wage raises could mean a more secure outlook for local demand. If not, the Bank of Japan will have to step in with more stimulus.

Events and Activities :: Harley raffle continues; Special Olympics Benefit ride set for Aug. 16
· 10:11am July 18th, 2014
The 5th Annual Vinton Shellsburg United Special Olympics Benefit Ride rolls into town on Saturday, August 16.
Starting with registration at the Ron da Voo at 10 a.m., and covering approximately 130 miles, the ride raises money to support local Special Olympics athletes from Vinton-Shellsburg, CPU and Benton Community school districts. 1st Avenue will be blocked off until 11:30 a.m., with all vehicles leaving at 11. "We're expecting nearly 250 riders, and all vehicle types, whether two, three, or four wheels are welcome to join the ride," event organizer Kris Kramer said. The cost for the ride is $15 per rider, or $25 per couple.
VSU coach Brian Larkin added, "With this being our 5th annual ride, we wanted to do it up big this year, so we've added some awesome things, and invite everyone to join in the fun. We're raffling off a 2013 Harley Davidson 883 Sportster, Phil Barkdoll will be auctioning off some incredible items donated by local artists including an original Harley themed painting by Paul Roster, and some steel Harley wall hangings forged by Marshall Whittaker," Larkin said. Kramer added, "Last year we raffled off a flat screen tv, but this year, Lisa from Michael and Doud contacted me, and DONATED a flat screen for us to auction off!"
Also this year, Koop's Automotive has sponsored an 80's band, WAGG, from 8-Midnight at the Legion. "WAGG is an awesome area band that's played at Jameson's, the Screaming Eagle, National Cattle Congress, and the Lansing Riverfest, to name a few," Larkin said. The public is invited to the Legion with doors opening at 7:30 p.m. for a free will donation at the door. "It's gonna be a great time!"
If you win the Harley, you have the choice of taking the Harley, or a cash option from Silver Eagle Harley Davidson. You can get a peek at the Harley in person, and purchase your raffle tickets, at the Vinton Cruise or the Benton County Fair. The drawing will be held at 8 p.m. at the American Legion Hall in Vinton on August 16th. You must be 21 to purchase the tickets, but you don't have to be present at the drawing to win.
"Only 1,000 tickets were printed, so your odds are better than winning the lottery," Kramer said.
You can purchase one ticket for $20, or six tickets for $100. If you'd like more information about the event, or would like to purchase tickets, contact Kris Kramer at 319-560-7117. Again, all proceeds directly benefit your local Special Olympians in Benton County.

|2009 Inductee (Tennis 1967-1971)
Humphrey Hose was born on May 4, 1947, on the island of Curaçao and began playing tennis at the tender age of nine years old. In just three years, at the age of 12, Hose won his first International title. At the age of 18, he became the national champion of Curaçao, a title he held for two years. In 1965 he moved to Venezuela and had won both the Hard and Clay court National Championships by the age of 20. He would represent Venezuela in Davis Cup competition for 9 years.
Hose brought his tennis skills and impressive resume to the University of Corpus Christi (UCC) in 1967. He represented the Tarpons from 1967-1971 serving as team captain during his junior and senior years. He won numerous tournaments including the Pan American, Buccaneer, and Thanksgiving tournaments in Corpus Christi as well as summer tournaments in cities such as Mobile, Al, New York, NY, and Montgomery, Al. Hose was ranked the #1 player in Division I collegiate tennis player in 1971. During his senior season, the Tarpon tennis team advanced to the NCAA National Championships at Notre Dame in South Bend, Ind. and ended the season ranked #5 nationally. Hose was recognized as All-American by the NCAA in 1971.
He began an impressive professional career upon graduation from UCC in 1971. Over the next nine years, he played Davis Cup, the ATP circuit, Wimbledon, the US Open, and the French Open. His professional resume included wins over several players ranked in the top-10 worldwide and he was the 5-time Dutch National Champion. Perhaps the highlight of his professional playing career was a win over Thomas Okker in Amsterdam a couple weeks after Okker advanced to the semifinals at Wimbledon in 1975. Additionally, Hose won the Caribbean circuit "Copa Marlboro del Caribe" on two separate occasions.
In 1980 he ended his professional playing career and moved to the island of Aruba to become the Tennis Federation Head coach. He was also the teaching pro at the Holiday Inn Beach resort in Aruba for 13 years. In 1993 he built the Aruba Racquet Club, becoming the Executive Director and shareholder which allowed him to bring the first ATP event to the island. In 1996 Hose was inducted into the Hall of Fame of the Blue Grey Tennis Championships in Montgomery, Ala. an event he won in 1971 and 1972. In 2006, after 13 years with the Aruba Racquet Club, he accepted a position as a teaching professional at La Caban Beach and Racquet Club, where he still works today.

I'd have to disagree with you. The x86 chips have been running RISC-style cores
since around the PPro, and the instruction translation engines have been refined
to the point where they're almost free from a performance standpoint. The
growing gap between core speeds and RAM speeds makes having a compact ISA more
important than having a simple one, so in fact one could say that CISC has "won
the war" on technical merit.
Add to that the transition to AMD64, which cleans up a lot of the ugly corners
of the ISA and you have a great base to build a world class CPU on.
AMD brought NUMA to the $500 desktop, Intel fixed up the ISA to allow full
virtualization, both have worked on adding and refining SIMD extensions. All the
technologies that used to be the domain of million dollar supercomputers are now
available for everyone.
Maybe we won't see a completely ground-up redesign on the ISA any time soon, but
do we really need one? The ugly duckling is all grown up now.

CASEY COUNTY, Ky. (WKYT) -
YOSEMITE, Ky. (WKYT) - Jerry Jones says he didn't think it was unusual to find a motorcycle sitting in his back yard….because his son owns one. Only it wasn't his son that he found inside his house.
"I found a man and a woman in the bedroom," said the Casey county man, who returned home from farming to find the invited guests going through valuables in his bedroom.
They were shoving jewelry into a bag and had electronics stacked on his bed.
"Told both of them to stop…drop everything, he hunkered down and said 'get back, get back.,'" said Jones.
The man ran into him and Jones fell into a shelf. He says he saw a man and woman get on the motorcycle and drive away. He called 911 and says he tried to chase after them but he says his truck gave out.
"When I got it into second gear that was it. I tore the rear end out of it. There I sat," he said.
And despite the fact that these thieves were caught in the act, Jones tells me they are missing some of their valuables. He says his wife is missing diamond and gold jewelry.
He says the man and woman were both in their 30's and left on a "rocket" style motorcycle. The Casey County Sheriff's office is investigating. Jones says it was a frightening experience.
He says he questions if the pair had help from elsewhere because he says there's no way they could have gotten away with all they were planning to steal…on a motorcycle.
If you have any information that might help police call the Casey County Sheriff's office at 606-787-6821.

Arby's Restaurant Group Inc. is celebrating National Hat Day this January 15 by paying homage to the iconic ten-gallon hat in the grandest way possible – introducing a White House petition to declare it the national hat of America. Arby's fans can join in the celebration by signing the petition, as well as enjoying a coupon for 50 percent off the new Chocolate Molten Lava Cake on National Hat Day.
The ten-gallon hat has been a symbol of American culture for centuries; however, the hat has evolved to become synonymous with Arby's and everything the iconic brand stands for. Today, the ten-gallon hat symbolizes a modern sandwich shop serving freshly made, craveable sandwiches, making Arby's the ideal champion for this effort on National Hat Day.
"While the country has many national symbols, including a bird, tree, and motto, America does not have a national hat," says Bob Kraut, senior vice president of brand marketing & advertising, Arby's Restaurant Group Inc. "Arby's has been proudly serving freshly sliced meats under its renowned hat for nearly 50 years, so we feel a commitment to honoring the ten-gallon hat on this holiday."

Tapering Key for Gold: Commodities in 2014
Commodities prices have been under the cosh this year, as the supercycle ground to a halt and geopolitical and economic uncertainties combined to apply price pressure. Gold, particularly, had a year to forget, losing one quarter of its value as a 12-year bull run comes to an end.
But what about the future?
Here's what money managers and commodities analysts think is in store for European commodity investors over the coming 12 months.
Bradley George, Head of Commodities & Resources at Investec:
The improving U.S. economy implies the start of tapering in 2014 and that could have a further impact on the gold price, said Mr. George. "Our view is that this is almost already priced into the market and there is potentially some upside. This is because we don't think the withdrawal of quantitative easing will be smooth. We have a new governor at the U.S. Federal Reserve and the approach will be data dependent. So we see some upside to gold with demand from emerging markets continuing, especially at the level of $1,300 per troy ounce."
John Hummel, president and chief investment officer at AIS Group:
Gold's recent weakness is "an interruption in a long-term bull market" and prices should begin to pick up again next year, said Mr. Hummel. "The basic reasons why gold has gone up in the last decade are still very much in place and we'll see new all-time highs in this bull market next year." Gold last hit a record high in September 2011, when it peaked at $1,920.94 a troy ounce. The metal now trades at around $1,260 an ounce, down 34% from its peak. Mr. Hummel expects central banks to continue to add gold to their reserves next year, and for production of the metal to fall within a few years if prices stay at current levels.
Michael Lewis, commodities strategist at Deutsche Bank:
"In an environment where QE tapering pushes U.S. real interest rates and the U.S. dollar higher we expect the gold price will remain under pressure" next year, said Mr. Lewis. "However, gold continues to enjoy areas of demand, for example in terms of central bank diversification. Moreover, the still low level of U.S. real interest rates would still tend to support gold returns since we find it is only when U.S. long term interest rates move above 2% does it become unambiguously bearish for gold. This may help to limit the degree of downside risk to gold." Gold does not bear interest, making it less attractive to investors when yields on other assets rise.
Kevin Norrish, Managing Director of Commodities Research at Barclays Capital.
The first quarter of 2014 is set to be a challenging quarter for commodities, with quantitative easing tapering looming, the dollar trending higher and sluggish growth in key consumers such as China, Brazil and India, said Mr. Norrish. Nevertheless with prices close to structural cost support levels and long positions wound down, the downside appears limited and few commodity markets currently look like attractive shorts — apart from gold and silver.
"We advise investors to trade both gold and silver from the short-side in the run up to Fed tapering, which we expect to begin in March," he said. "We expect 2014 to be marked by big shifts in some of the key fundamental and macro dynamics driving commodities in recent years, with outcomes likely to be very negative for gold, modestly so for oil, but potentially quite positive for base metals."
Base Metals
Stephen Briggs, Senior Metals Strategist at BNP Paribas
The theme for 2014 will again be a bit of divergence between the base metals, said Mr. Briggs. "The demand side of the market is particularly amenable to that divergence, we think. The view on demand is rather a 'Goldilocks' view – decent growth is expected but nothing special. In that case, if there are supply-side differences between metals, these will drive things. We've seen that this year with nickel down heavily, although it is now rallying, and tin not so much."
On copper, Mr. Briggs is bearish. "I'm still in the camp that thinks there is a surplus, and copper is still relatively highly priced, so there is still a chance of price erosion."
Simona Gambarini, associate director of research at ETF Securities:
Chinese commodity consumption is expected to remain strong, said Ms. Gambarini. "The $6.4 trillion program to bring 400 million people into [Chinese] cities over the coming ten years will likely spur demand for industrial metals and raw materials in general. With the government now focused on reducing overcapacity and improving efficiency, we expect over-production of certain commodities like aluminum to eventually abate, in turn lifting prices." Alongside indications of rising growth in the country, industrial activity should remain a buoyant source of demand for industrially-linked metals such as copper, platinum and palladium, she said.
Crude oil
Koen Straetmans, Senior Multi Asset Strategist at ING IM
Prices have been propelled higher recently, said Mr. Straetmans, as the seasonal return from maintenance of refineries, partial pipeline debottlenecking at Cushing and lingering geopolitical risk have combined with likelihood that Saudi Arabia will continue to be the 'compensating' producer for oil markets.
"At current crude oil prices we see limited upward potential in the short term. On the downside the preliminary deal struck with Iran on its nuclear program may weigh somewhat on crude prices. The main channel here remains sentiment as the sanction relief is limited with only marginally higher Iranian oil exports expected in the short term. Towards year-end some partial return of oil production in Iraq and Libya may also become a headwind for oil prices."
Torbjørn Kjus, Oil Market Analyst at DNB Bank ASA
Non-OPEC supply growth that materially outpaces demand is the key argument for lower oil prices in 2014, said Mr. Kjus.
"It is worth emphasizing that the last 5-6 months we have started to see meaningful production growth in other non-OPEC countries than just USA/Canada as well," he said. "To put it in oil terminology; the 'Call on OPEC' will drop meaningfully next year and when that happens the average oil price tends to drop as well."
Mr. Kjus sees the key downside risks as a swift return of Libya/Iran to the market, Federal Reserve tapering and much weaker-than-expected economic growth in China. Upside risk is mainly geopolitical, he added.

Sherwin Nuland
Death: it's a topic that few of us like to broach. But Dr. Sherwin Nuland faced the issue of dying with frankness and honesty in his book How We Die: Reflections on Life's Final Chapter. Dr. Nuland is Clinical Professor of Surgery at the Yale School of Medicine, and How We Die drew upon his many decades as a doctor and educator. He sought to demystify the process by examining the most common ways of dying. The book must have hit home: it spent many weeks on bestseller lists, it won the National Book Award, and it was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize.
And it was his experience with the ways of dying that inspired him to write his most recent book, The Art of Aging: A Doctor's Prescription for Well-Being. Dr. Nuland says that aging is an art and one that will reap many rewards if done well. And while the end result may be inescapable, Nuland has definite opinions about how we get there. "We can choose certain types of physical activity, we can choose to be engaged, we can change bad habits," he says.
"This generation is going to transform this society's image of what aging can be," Nuland says.

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS (WOAI) - Folks in a Northwest San Antonio neighborhood woke-up Friday morning to an unwelcome surprise.
Nearly two dozen homes and cars were tagged with graffiti. It's not how Ryan Rasmussen and his neighbor Jesse Navarro hoped to start their Friday. Both have now found themselves with an unwanted weekend chore.
Two early morning graffiti bandits tagged cars and homes up and down Grand Bend and Indian Bend. The taggers marked up more than a dozen cars and homes on one street alone.
They may have thought they got away with the perfect crime, but neighbors said a private security camera caught two young males shortly after 1:30 a.m.
The pair was tagging a truck just up the street, and police are now reviewing that video tape.

The advantages of performing Langevin dynamics in extended systems are discussed. A simple Langevin dynamics scheme for producing the canonical ensemble is reviewed, and is then extended to the Hoover ensemble. We show that the resulting equations of motion generate the isobaric–isothermal ensemble. The Parrinello–Rahman ensemble is then discussed and we show that despite the presence of intrinsic probability gradients in this system, a Langevin dynamics approach samples the extended phase space in the correct fashion. The implementation of these methods in the ab initio plane wave density functional theory code CASTEP [M. D. Segall, P. L. D. Lindan, M. J. Probert, C. J. Pickard, P. J. Hasnip, S. J. Clarke, and M.

example, by index based I mean 'application.exe,1' and by ID based i
mean 'application.exe,-102'. I've also tried to use different 'random'
numbers, but nothing seems to work. Only working association seems to
be 'application.exe,0' (index based). The second icon is bundled in
application.exe for sure, I've checked this on Windows XP and the
application.exe has two icons as expected.
I have no idea what should be wrong. Maybe it's some bug? Some help,
hints would be helpful. Thanks.

Rolodex Card Printing
- Rolodex Card Printing
While not as many people use Rolodex organizers as in the past, there are still plenty of people who prefer this easy, non-digital method of organizing information. Our Rolodex cards are printed on a postcard so that customers can receive them in the mail with direct mail marketing. Upon receipt, the customer can remove the Rolodex card from the postcard background and insert it into any Rolodex device.
PrintFirm can help you fill your Rolodex printing needs.
We use durable 14-point card stock for Rolodex printing. Size options include 4" X 6" and 5.5" X 8.5". The larger size does not change the dimensions of the Rolodex card. It simply enlarges the postcard background. This size can be useful in your direct mail marketing campaign if you want to increase the visibility of the rack cards in the mailbox. You can fit more information in the postcard section which allows you to add a "call to action" message if you want.
You can upload a print-ready Rolodex card design to our website. We accept all the popular graphic design files such as PDF, AI, and TIFF. You can also choose from our pre-made design templates that include a basic graphics background for the postcard and Rolodex sections. This saves you time during the design process. If nobody in your organization is skilled at graphic design, you can select the "custom design" option from our website when you place your order. Our talented team of in-house graphic artists will create a design for you.
PrintFirm recommends a minimum resolution of 300 DPI (dots per inch) for all uploaded images before proceeding with Rolodex card printing. Lower resolutions may look fine on your screen, but the printed result is typically a fuzzy mess. Use caution when adapting images found online because they are generally low resolution. To check the DPI, open the graphics file in a reputable graphic design program and view the file details.
It's not a good idea to crowd the design for your Rolodex cards or the postcard background. Adding enough whitespace (area without design) is crucial for a professional appearance. Any direct mail Rolodex cards should be easy to read in the mailbox, and a crowded design may reduce readability. If your headline does not grab attention in the mailbox, the recipient may throw the card away without a second glance.
Please consider PrintFirm for all your Rolodex card printing needs. We believe that quality is just as important as giving discounts for quantity.

Blisters from new BOA boots! Help!!
Hey guys, I scored a wicked deal on a pair of DC judges last week, and took them up to my local mountain last Sunday. I must say, they were heaps and bounds better than my old boots in terms of performance. Now here comes the shitty part. About 3 hours in of riding, I noticed some pain on both my shins. I ignored it (dumb move) since I was having such a blast ripping around the mountain. By the time I took off my boots (which was about 6 hours of riding), I realized that I had 2 huge blisters which had bubbled up on both my shins. Needless to say, it got infected, and now I can barely walk. What do you guys think happened? Did I tighten them too much? I didn't feel at any point that I was cutting off circulation or felt it was overly tight. Or are the boots just not the right fit for me? Oh! I forgot to mention that my boarding socks were in the washer, and I was running late, so I rode with just regular socks. I'm thinking it might of been because my socks rolled down while I was riding, leaving my skin exposed to rubbing against the boot. I really love these boots, but if this shit were to happen again, I'd have to give them up on craigslist.
Forgot to mention, these are the first pair of BOA's I've ever ridden.
Probably from regular socks...especially if they were cotton or a cotton blend...cause they will bunch up, get wet and rub. It also indicates perhaps the boots are rubbing and not yet broken in and fitting well. Though the shin area is kind of a weird place for blisters...perhaps cuff area was not snug. Perhaps if rubbing, the boots are not tightening enough or in the right places...but there might be other issues of toe slam, heel lift and etc. If rubbing continues to be an issue, use a wicking liner under your regular sb sock...to elimate the friction.
And now, if you are infected and can barely walk...pay more attention...if you would have attended to the issue when you first noticed it at the 3 hour mark...or have gotten your laundry done...son get a clue.
Your dad.
I would lean towards the socks as well, and I will leave the lecturing to others :laugh:
Boa's irrelevant. Tight is tight. I suppose there's a small chance your skin reacted to contact with the boot liner, but it's most likely the socks.
1 Attachment(s)
You can always put duct tape over your hot spots to protect them. Works great. I agree with the others that it was mostly likely the socks.
I am almost certain it was the socks, especially if you say that they slid down and your shins were rubbing directly against the liner of the boot.
I never had problems with blisters in my boots until I wore them with regular socks while helping my kid learn to ski on the magic carpet run. I didn't even ride but just walked up and down the hill for a few hours. I had blisters on both feet and I am certain that it was because I was wearing normal socks.
Thanks for the input guys! I kind of figured wearing the wrong socks was the issue. Definitely learned my lesson this time.
I'm with everyone else. It's most likely the socks.
My buddy was questioning why I wear snowboard specific socks when I ride. I was almost speechless, replying "what do you mean? what kind of socks do you wear?" Friend: "2 pairs of long thick cotton socks" Me: "Let's stop at Sports Chalet on the way home, your birthday present is coming real early this year".
But an extra pair or 2 to have around, or next time wear dirty socks. I'd rather wear dirty socks than get infected blisters. At this point Saline washes & Neosporin are probably your best friends...
shin blister, you can wear thicker long socks. and i think you are putting alot of pressure into the tongue of the boots.
Its proboly your socks.
Anyways can someone tell me if nike elite socks are bad for riding? The basketball ones

About the Book
From Heidi Cullen, one of America's foremost experts on weather and climate change and a senior research scientist with Climate Central, comes The Weather of the Future, a fascinating and provocative book that predicts what different parts of the world will look like in the year 2050 if current levels of carbon emissions are maintained.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Droughts. Floods.
Climate refugees.
Global warming isn't just about polar bears anymore.
Let's assume we do nothing about climate change. Imagine that we just continue to emit carbon at our current levels or even exceed those levels. How would our weather change? What would our forecast be? Welcome to The Weather of the Future.
In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Heidi Cullen, one of the world's foremost climatologists and environmental journalists, puts a vivid face on climate change, offering a new way of seeing this phenomenon not just as an event set to happen in the distant future but as something happening right now in our own backyards. Arguing that we must connect the weather of today with the climate change of tomorrow, Cullen combines the latest research from scientists on the ground with state-of-the-art climate-model projections to create climate-change scenarios for seven of the most at-risk locations around the world.
From the Central Valley of California, where coming droughts will jeopardize the entire state's water supply, to Greenland, where warmer temperatures will give access to mineral wealth buried beneath ice sheets for millennia, Cullen illustrates how, if left unabated, climate change will transform every corner of the world by midcentury. What emerges is a mosaic of changing weather patterns that collectively spell out the range of risks posed by global warming—whether it's New York City, whose infrastructure is extremely vulnerable to even a relatively weak category 3 hurricane, or Bangladesh, a country so low-lying that millions of people could become climate refugees due to rising sea levels.
Provocative and convincing, The Weather of the Future makes climate change local, showing how no two regions of the country or the world will be affected in quite the same way, and demonstrating that melting ice is just the beginning.

I grew up in central Manitoba where wild high bush cranberries are plentiful and my mother and us kids as well as most other families in the area picked them pretty well every year.
They are such a thing with me that I crave for them if I do not have some in what ever form, raw, jelly or juice at least once a year. The taste to me is out of this world and special. I think I am genetically hardwired for them.
In later life I moved to southern Ontario in the Toronto area. To my delight, one autumn day, I discovered wild high bush cranberries growing along the roadsides. I slammed on the brakes and ran to pick some and to my dismay I found them to be somewhat bitter. The same sweet tart flavor as the ones in Manitiba but with an added bitter taste component, that is best desctibed as a dirty socks taste and smell.
(Citified taste buds usually cannot handle this bitterness, as well as a lot of other good things, that good country folks learn to love.) After a few years of research and asking questions I learned that there are two kinds of highbush cranberries, the sweet and the bittersweet. My experience so far is that the bittersweet variety grow closer to Lake Ontario maybe up to roughly a 100 kms plus from the lake. I found some to be less bitter in some areas beyond the 100 or so km range.
So I experimented with making jelly with this bitter variety, because they were readily available, and discovered that the simplist way to make jelly out of these bitter ones, is to simply pick as much berries as you like and clean them of course, (use only the reddest healthiest looking berries, do not use the orange ones, they are not fully developed and more bitter. Better to pick them that way, then to sort and clean after.
I put the berries in a stainless steel pot and cover with water, bring to low boil and turn off heat. No need to boil more, just enough to soften the skin, this way you preserve the vitamins and enzymes as much as possible.
I press the juice out by putting some berries in a good quality strong large sieve and pressing the berries with a good strong big spoon till all the juice is pressed out into a suitable container. Use the water with the berries. Discard seeds and skins. Or if you wish you can add some hot water to the seeds and skins, stir well, and run throught sieve one more time to get out a bit more juice and add to your other juice to extend your amount a bit if you don't have much juice. Try a bit on the side first to see if you like it.
Add enough sugar to make the juice mixture palatable. Pretty well close to one part sugar to one part juice, unless you are a hard core low or no sugar type, or diabetic, you can try less sugar, or some sugar substitutes or some sugar and some sugar substitute. Experiment as you like.
Let the juice cool in the fridge or, freezer, if you want it as cold as possible as quick as possible.
I use a packet of orange jello powder and make orange jello as directed and simply use (substitute) the cold water portion with the cranberry juice.
The directions on the jello box usually calls for adding jello powder to 1 cup boiling water, dissolve thoroughly, then I add just under a cup of cold cranberry juice to the hot water mixture.
I use about 7/8 of a cup of juice to make a firmer jelly. Put in fridge until jelled and vo-la you have a delightful jelly in which the bitterness is well masked. I tried cherry jello and it tastes good also. ( I use a 500 ml plastic container, like the ones from sour cream or cottage cheese. )
Spread on toast with peanut butter or eat like jello in a bowl and with some cream or ice cream or yogurt, or any other way that your heart desires.
I tried adding 1/8 cup 35% whipping cream to 3/4 cup cranberry juice, stir well, then add to the boiling water jello mixture also, and it was wonderful too. Even less bitterness.
This method takes the least amount of time and jello powder costs less than pectin and you do not have to over boil the juice, therefore preserving the vitamins and enzymes to some degree. Maybe you can find some way to squeeze the juice out without cooking and make a raw juice jello and save all the nutrition if you are a hard core raw food type.
This jello will keep in the fridge for a couple of months at least.
Another delicious and medicinal way (I am sure) to use this cranberry is to just make the juice and add sugar to taste as explained above. But instead of making jelly, just put in a jar (and put in the fridge to keep longer).
If you can drink it straight, more power to you, it is not too bad cut with apple juice or orange juice, half and half, but it makes a delightful tea, by simply adding a couple of teaspoons of juice to a cup of boiling water. A quart or litre of this juice goes a long way. It will also keep in the fridge a long time if mixed with sugar half and half.
I have a neighbor couple that recently moved from Lithuania and it was his idea to use it as a tea. Such teas are customary in their country. It is delicious and I am sure, theraputic for something. No bitter taste, this way.

University of Texas at Arlington. (4/6/12). "Press Release: Shimadzu Gift Brings Millions in Scientific Equipment to UT Arlington".
Shimadzu Scientific Instruments, a world leader in the analytical instruments industry, will establish the Shimadzu Center for Advanced Analytical Chemistry at The University of Texas at Arlington through an in-kind gift valued at nearly $3 million.
The new center, located in UT Arlington's Chemistry and Physics Building, will be a home for scientific exploration and will contain $6 million worth of state-of-the-art chromatography, mass spectrometry and spectroscopy equipment.
It is one of the largest gifts ever to the UT Arlington College of Science. A grand opening to recognize Shimadzu officials is scheduled for 3 p.m. April 9, on the first floor of the Chemistry and Physics Building at 700 Planetarium Place.
"We are honored that a company with the worldwide reach of Shimadzu has chosen to invest in UT Arlington's research program," UT Arlington President James D. Spaniolo said. "This equipment will provide opportunities for faculty and students in a laboratory that is truly on the cutting edge of analytical possibilities."
The instruments will be used for research into preventions and treatments for illnesses such as cancer and malaria as well as in the development of nanofabrication materials for industry.
"Shimadzu's gift creates a resource accessible to North Texas researchers whether they are university-based or in private enterprise," said Pamela Jansma, dean of the UT Arlington College of Science. "It's an outstanding example of the benefit of having a growing research institution nearby."
The central location of the Shimadzu Center will allow researchers in the UT Arlington College of Science and the College of Engineering to access the enhanced capabilities for trace qualitative and quantitative analysis, said Kevin Schug, UT Arlington associate professor of chemistry and biochemistry. The facility also will be available for use by area businesses on a contract basis.
In concert with the opening of the Center, Schug has been named the University's new Shimadzu Distinguished Professor of Analytical Chemistry. He will oversee the laboratory.
"UT Arlington has a dynamic science program focused on the future, and Shimadzu is pleased and eager to support such a research institution," said Shuzo Maruyama, president of Shimadzu Scientific Instruments. "Kevin Schug is one of the leading young scientists in the country, and it will be a pleasure to work with him and the entire team at UT Arlington on future projects."
Schug won the 2010 Eli Lilly Young Analytical Scientist Award, an award that recognizes a researcher doing work relevant to the pharmaceutical industry.
Schug said the new center represents "the largest installation of analytical instrumentation from Shimadzu in the Western Hemisphere.
"We can do almost any type of analysis with what we have," he said.
Examples of some of the cutting-edge research that will be aided by the Shimadzu instruments include:
> Research led by Schug using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry equipment to analyze cuticular lipids that can reveal age in a species of mosquito known for spreading malaria. Effective methods for analyzing mosquito age could help biochemical-based efforts to prevent spread of the disease, since younger mosquitoes are non-contagious. Schug will also use new metals analysis equipment in an ongoing study of private well water samples collected near natural gas sites.
> Subhrangsu Mandal, associate professor of chemistry and biochemistry, is currently looking for chemicals in the environment that could interfere with normal hormone functions and, possibly, fuel cancer growth. The mass spectrometry equipment will help him better analyze test items such as commonly used growth hormones, water from various sources and milk. He received a 2010 grant of nearly $500,000 from the National Institutes of Health to fund his work.
> Jian Yang, associate professor of bioengineering, will use the new high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry equipment in his work on biodegradable fluorescent polymers. These polymers can help deliver chemotherapeutic agents to cancers and also enable sensitive cancer detection through optical imaging. Yang recently received a $1.25 million National Institutes of Health grant for this work.
The new Shimadzu Center for Advanced Analytical Chemistry will be an important asset to The University of Texas at Arlington, a comprehensive research institution of nearly 33,500 students in the heart of North Texas. Visit www.uta.edu to learn more.
Shimadzu Scientific Instruments (SSI) is the American subsidiary of Shimadzu Corp., headquartered in Kyoto, Japan. Founded in 1875, Shimadzu is a $3 billion multinational corporation with three major divisions: Medical Diagnostics, Aerospace/Industrial and Analytical Instruments. In the United States, SSI has a network of more than 50 locations providing local and regional sales, service and technical support. Visitwww.ssi.shimadzu.com for more information.
The University of Texas at Arlington is an Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.

Today, Google released new data in the Transparency Report, showing user data requests received, through which means, and for how many of those requests data was produced and presumably released to the requesting party.
The new data includes a breakdown of requests such as subpoenas or search warrants, and a breakdown of data requests versus user account requests. The data is also broken down by country and time periods.
In their blog announcement, Google released the following stats from July to December 2012:
- 68 percent of the requests Google received from government entities in the U.S. were through subpoenas. These are requests for user-identifying information, issued under the Electronic Communications Privacy Act ("ECPA"), and are the easiest to get because they typically don't involve judges.
- 22 percent were through ECPA search warrants. These are, generally speaking, orders issued by judges under ECPA, based on a demonstration of "probable cause" to believe that certain information related to a crime is presently in the place to be searched.
- The remaining 10 percent were mostly court orders issued under ECPA by judges or other processes that are difficult to categorize.
Google also noted that user data requests have increased by more than 70 percent since 2009.
Google first announced their Transparency Report back in Fall 2010 as part of their government requests tool aimed at giving people information about the requests for user data and content removal they receive from the government. Since then, Google has responded to an average of over 38,000 requests for information or content removal annually.
As part of this change, content removal requests have been removed from the transparency report. Google's Richard Slagado, Legal Director, Law Enforcement and Information Security, stated they will release those numbers in a separate report from here forward and to "stay tuned" for those data. One has to speculate that if those data warrant their own report, those requests may have increased by double-digit percentages as well.
Is all this data good or bad? Could Google be more transparent about the types of requests filled – in whole or in part? Let us know in the comments below!
This article was originally published on http://searchenginewatch.com/sew/news/2238612/google-transparency-report-adds-details-on-subpoenas-search-warrants-court-orders.

Davis Double Century
Ride 200 miles in one day through Yolo, Napa, and Lake counties on the most popular and one of the best supported double centuries in California. Always the 3rd Saturday in May.
The 48th Davis Double Century will be held on Saturday, May 20, 2017. Registration opens on March 1, 2017. We will post details here as the registration date approaches. If you have any questions before then, and cannot find the answer in the links below or the FAQs, please contact us.
Ride Description
The Davis Double the most popular double century in California. It is considered an ideal first double century. There is no "death", "terrible", "monster", "devil", or "heartbreak" in this ride. What really sets the Davis Double apart from other rides, for first-time as well as more experienced long-distance riders, is the level of support we give our riders. There are nine rest stops in addition to a lunch stop, and multiple SAG vehicles patrol the entire course. As for difficulty, there is about 8,000 feet of climbing with a few longer climbs. Nearly all of the climbing is under 10%, primarily in the 6-8% range, and the climbing ends well before Mile 150. There is also a four-mile section of hard-pack dirt road around Mile 100 in Big Canyon. The hard-pack section of the ride is a gradual climb with a few gentle rollers.
The ride starts at the Veterans Memorial Center at the intersection of 14th and B Streets in Davis. After leaving town, the first part of the ride runs through flat farmland in the Central Valley toward Esparto. The route then turns south to Winters before climbing over the Berryessa Gap and running north through the hills in east Napa County to Middletown and Lower Lake in Lake County for lunch. After a long climb up to Resurrection at the Lake/Yolo county border, the road descends through Cache Creek Canyon and Capay Valley back to the Central Valley farmland and the finish at the Veterans Memorial Center in Davis. You can see an overview of the course here.
All riders must be on the course by 5:15am Saturday. The ride closes at 1:00am Sunday.
We rely on hundreds of volunteers to help make the Davis Double a successful ride for all of our participants. We have an online volunteer sign-up sheet available. Go here to sign up and volunteer.
For those who volunteer, we offer a Worker's Ride before the Davis Double. This is a supported ride of the entire course, and counts as a double for purposes of the California Triple Crown. To qualify, you must work a minimum four hours shift at one of the Davis Double rest stops on ride day. If you're interested, or want more information, learn more about the Workers Ride when we post details.

1 injured in collision with Ride-the-Duck vehicle
SEATTLE A motorcyclist is in satisfactory condition after colliding with a Ride-the-Duck tour vehicle in downtown Seattle.
The Seattle Times reports ( http://bit.ly/oNiKt7 ) that Monday's collision happened when the motorcycle went under the amphibious vehicle.
Seattle fire department spokesman Kyle Moore says the man, who appeared to be in his 50s, was wearing a helmet and conscious at the scene. He was transported to Harborview Medical Center.
A call to the Duck's office was not immediately returned.

HEADLINE writers around the country jumped for joy on Sunday afternoon when Peter Senior took out the Australian Open by one shot over former Eurobodalla man Brendan Jones.
Funnily enough, Senior, at age 53, became the oldest ever Aussie Open champion.
It was simply meant to be.
And he had to fight for every shot, too. Gale-force winds wreaked absolute havoc at Sydney's The Lakes course during Sunday's final round and play was forced to come to a three-hour halt!
The wind was so bad, even TV reception was hard to come by so thousands (including myself) had to follow the final stages online.
I could only imagine what Jones, who was the clubhouse leader for around an hour, was going through as Senior made his way up the back nine.
The nerves and tension would've been just about unbearable. While it would have been nice from a Eurobodalla point of view had Jones won, it's hard to begrudge Senior his second Open title.
He comes across as a genuinely nice guy and he was simply all class during his trophy presentation speech on Sunday (which took place in darkness after the massive hold up).
Englishman Justin Rose was my pick before the final day's play, as I thought he would have been able to handle the UK-type conditions the best. However, he faded late on to finish in a tie for fourth, while Adam Scott also disappointed throughout.
Manchester United, arguably the biggest "brand" in world sport, will be in Sydney next July as part of the club's pre-season tour.
Now, I can't stand Manchester United – in fact, I loathe them – but this is exciting news.
Most of the time when clubs agree to these sorts of things, they only do it half-heartedly and take B-grade squads with them on their travels.
This won't be the case in Sydney.
Manchester United's full-strength line-up is expected to take the field at ANZ Stadium against an A-League All Stars team.
Wayne Rooney, Robin Van Persie, Ryan Giggs and even the one and only Sir Alex Ferguson are all expected to be there.
It cost the NSW Government a cheeky $3 million to attract the current English Premier League leaders to town, but with an 82,000 crowd all but assured and the average ticket price at $107, the tour will earn back at least three times that amount.
The July 20 match will round out a busy few days for Sydney's Olympic Park – the third State of Origin will take place at the same venue on the preceding Wednesday!
So version 2.0 of the Big Bash League got underway on the weekend and you've got to say the opening round was a bit hit and miss.
Sure, there were some good games – like the ones in Perth and Brisbane – but the two derbies, in Melbourne and Sydney, seemed a little underwhelming to me.
I'm not sure if the gloss from season one has worn off already, but the crowds in both cities were well short of what organisers hoped for.

Here at the Fisherman's Friend, we always go the extra length to accommodate our guests.
How it works…
All dinners include:
Cornbread, choice of green salad or vegetable, and choice of Baked potato, Mashed potato or Rice Pilaf.
Choose up to 3 entrées
Choose 1 vegetable or green salad
Choose 1 kind of Potato
When selecting the time for meals to be served, think of a time frame and not one specific time. Dinner can be delivered to roughly 100 people within 30 minutes on average (more or less depending on what type of meal). Please understand that meals come in an assemble pattern.

Online Tool To Help Tenants Avoid Rental ScamsSeptember 10, 2009 at 5:41 pm | Posted in Tips to Avoid Scams | Leave a comment
Tags: rental scam tips
According to RealEstateConsumerNews, there is a new online tool that helps tenants avoid rental scams.
I checked out the rental scam detection quiz and was impressed. It takes just a few minutes to answer the 9 questions the quiz presents and it then gives you what it has calculated of the chances of the rental you are looking at as being a scam. Based on the knowledge I have obtained from researching rental scams for blogs, I found the questions in this quiz to make a lot of sense and be very relevant. In addition, I found the explanations the quiz gives for each question to be very informative. I would highly recommend that you use this tool before handing your deposit money to a landlord or property manager.

Coming in at fewer than 30 calories per cup, cabbagebe it green, red, or savoyis a reliable source of vitamins C and K. Several studies suggest that higher intakes of cruciferous vegetables, including cabbage, can safeguard against several forms of cancer, due in large part to an abundance of chemicals, such as glucosinolates, that help detoxify carcinogens. Among cabbage varieties, red has the highest antioxidant activity, mostly due to the wealth of anthocyanin compounds that provide the eye-catching hue.
Choose It & Use It
At its best in the fall and winter months, cabbage comes in many forms, but the most common is head cabbage, a tight ball of waxy leaves. Choose those that feel heavy for their size, with crisp-looking, firmly packed leaves. Red cabbage tends to be a little sweeter than its green counterpart. Shred and enjoy it raw (think coleslaw), pickled, steamed, or sautéed.

Red Cabbage Salad with Pears and Walnuts
Think cabbage salad has to be a slaw? Think again. Thinly sliced cabbage heads make a crunchy alternative to lettuce. This salad should be served as soon as it is made so the cabbage retains its vibrant color. To make pomegranate syrup, simmer 1 cup pomegranate juice withmore
Corn-Quinoa Salad
If your corn is very fresh and tender, you can skip the blanching step in this recipe; just stir the raw kernels into the salad.more
Savoy Cabbage Salad with Carrot-Ginger Dressing
Blended raw carrots give this zippy dressing texture and color. Make extra, and keep it in the fridge for dipping raw vegetables.more

It's what students and staff at FAMU are calling one of the finest gifts to the city. The 'Crossroads' exhibit with the works of Gordon Parks. The exhibit showing off 45 pieces of his work was unveiled at FAMU.
Malia Lewis, great niece of Gordon Parks, said, "The biggest thing to me was always that he was so humble about it. He had this larger than life persona that other people saw, but with us he was cool Uncle Gordon. You know, making fish and telling jokes."
Dr. James Hawkins, Dean of the School of Journalism and Graphic Communication, shared, "This exhibit will bring to our community the works of a great American who lived a tough life, but managed to find a way to share American History"
The Gordon Parks Crossroads exhibit will be on display for only 45 days. Students and staff at FAMU urge everyone in the community to see it in the Meek-Eaton Black Archives.

Mercedes boss doesn't plan to let cost be an issue for more efficient cars
Mercedes-Benz CEO Dieter Zetsche told Motor Trend this week that increased cost was not going to be an issue for his company to meet new fuel economy standards. Obviously getting improved efficiency out of powertrains would make them more expensive as they have to meet U.S. CAFE and European CO2 emissions limits. However, while U.S. executives like Bob Lutz are talking about adding $5,000 or more to the price to meet 35mpg standards, Zetsche looks at it differently. The use of clean diesels, HCCI DiesOtto engines, hybrids and fuel cells will raise prices. The higher initial purchase price will be offset for customers through reduced operating costs. According to Zetsche, if the cost premium can be recovered through fuel savings in the first 3-4 years of driving than customers will be satisfied. Mercedes also intends to protect their ten percent profit margins through increased efficiencies in other areas of the vehicle. That probably means that Mercedes owners will give up some features for improved efficiency. Of course for a premium brand like Mercedes, it's a lot easier to talk about protecting margins than it is for mainstream brands like GM and Ford. Being largely rid of the burden of Chrysler probably doesn't hurt either. Finally Zetsche says an S-Class diesel hybrid will debut in two years with DiesOtto engines about 3-5 years out.

Notice anything new in your FreshBooks account? Hopefully you have, as we've rolled out some neat new features today.
Late Payment Reminders: Per Client Management
Ever wish you didn't have to hassle your clients when they are late to pay you? You don't have to – FreshBooks will take care of that for you! Late payment reminders are a great way to gently remind a client that they need to pay you on-time.
Trouble is, not every client wants or needs these reminders, and so today we're pleased to announce the introduction of the ability to turn on/off late payment reminders on a per-client basis.
But "How do I conjure up this late payment reminders magic of which you speak?" you ask? First, you will need to be taking advantage of the automated late payment reminder emails, which you can turn on in your account under "Settings" on the "Emails" page. This will universally enable them for all your clients.
This is where this week's release comes in. To turn off the late payments for a specific client, go to your "Clients" tab and click "edit" on the right beside the client you want to turn them off for. Then, click on the yellow tags below your client's organization's name (like invoices). You can also do this from the Invoice but it will universally change it for all the invoices related to the client (not just for the invoice).
Invoice Autobiography
Ever wondered when exactly your client viewed a particular invoice? Or what the last change you or your staff made to an invoice? You can get it all with the new Invoice Autobiography – it even has by the minute timestamps! Just go to the bottom of the invoice while viewing or previewing it (not in the edit screen).
Side note: your clients are not able to see this history, however, staff with permissions to view invoices are able to see the autobiography. Please also note, this may change in the future and your clients may be able to see a select number of historical invoice activities.
More Invoice Languages: Danish and Portuguese
Have clients that speak Danish or Portuguese? Invoices can now be translated to both of these languages. To change the language of your invoice, just click on the yellow tags below the client's name on the "edit" invoice page. You can also make it a default for your client in the "Clients" tab by editing the specific client. The tags are clickable below the "Organization Name."
Referral Program: Co-Branded Landing Page and More Banners
Been sharing the FreshBooks love? As of today, when someone from your network clicks on your unique referral link, they will be brought to a co-branded landing page with your company's name and logo on it. You do not even have to lift a finger. Here's an example with JS Design:
Last release, we made it really easy to add FreshBooks referral banners to your website. But maybe you were looking for something that would fit in a little differently into your overall design. We've added some more diverse banners such as this header/footer one below:
As always, to check out the banners, go to "Refer FreshBooks" under the "Home" tab in your account.
We hope you enjoy all the new features – and as always, more stuff is always coming your way!

I don't think you want a softmodem for Asterisk. There are hardware
voice modems on PCI cards that would always be a better choice (in
general) than a softmodem, IMHO.
However, I don't know how well Asterisk works with standard modems. The
typical Asterisk setup handles multiple lines, using specialized
multi-line cards. Check the Asterisk website for lists of supported
hardware before you buy any modem (WinModem or otherwise).
I do know of one single-line phone card that is supported by Asterisk
and very affordable. It goes by the name "X101P" and can be found
on-line at (for example):
Note that that store is in Canada. Prices and availability may differ
in your part of the world (where ever that may be).

Marc Holloway's resignation as Kingman Police Chief marks the second police chief to resign in the city in just over five years.
Holloway resigned January 3rd after an investigation by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation started in mid-November. KBI has since turned all of their reports over to the city attorney, Greg Grassman. He tells Eyewitness News that those reports are being processed and no charges have been filed at this time.
Holloway was promoted after the former chief, John Braden, was arrested for making criminal threats in April of 2008. His girlfriend at the time had called 911 saying he had been beating her. He was also charged with misdemeanor battery in the case.
Kingman County Sheriff Randy Hill said despite the past, he hopes the public will continue to trust them as they work to protect residents.
"I hope so, we have a good police department, we have a good sheriff's office and we're going to strive to keep it that way," said Hill.
He said it's important that those who work to protect the community are being good examples for those they serve.
"All the police officers, all the sheriff's officers, all of us believe that we all have to police each other just as we police the community," said Hill. "And that's what we want to instill in the community that we want to hold ourselves to the same standards, if not higher standards, then what we hold the community to."
Kingman is a city of a little more than 3,000 residents and Hill calls it "tight-knit." One woman eyewitness news spoke with said more than anything, she's just concerned about the families of the officers who have gotten into trouble. Another Kingman resident said she truly was concerned with the police department and what's happened over the past few years.
The city is now working to fill the position of police chief. Until then, Captain David Lux is filling in as interim.
Eyewitness News spoke with Marc Holloway at his home Thursday morning. He said he couldn't comment on the investigation because of the term of his resignation. Holloway said he has some plans in the works for his future.
