President Peres meets with French foreign minister, says 'Israel's top political echelon in agreement over two-state solution.'
Kouchner to Peres: 'You are my role model for peace; I've learned from you important lessons in diplomacy'
Gilad Halpern Published: 04.14.10, 21:48 / Israel News
PARIS- President Shimon Peres on Wednesday met with French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner in France and discussed the promotion of the peace process with the Palestinians.
Peres said he was visiting the country in order to garner its support for the peace effort and noted that Israel's top political echelon was in agreement over the two-state solution.
Kouchner delved deep into the conflict over the construction in east Jerusalem, to which the president said, "We mustn't determine the results before negotiations have begun."
Peres asked the French foreign minister to think of the peace process as an American film and said tongue-in-cheek, "Even in Hollywood you don't reveal the happy ending before the end of the movie."
Peres added that during the past 40 years Israel has achieved peace with its neighbors and the conclusion was that there is no other way but to keep trying. The president emphasized that peace between Israel and the Palestinians will benefit the future generation among both sides.
The official meeting between Kouchner and Peres lasted over 40 minutes, and the two continued to speak in private for an additional 20 minutes. Kouchner commended Peres for his longtime activities and said, "You are my role model for peace. I have learned from you important lessons in diplomacy."
On Thursday afternoon, President Peres is slated to have lunch with his French counterpart Nicolas Sarkozy at Elysee palace.
On Tuesday, Peres met with French Prime Minister Francois Fillon and discussed the delivery of Scud missiles from Damascus to Hezbollah. Peres said "Syria is playing a double game – on the one hand it is talking peace, and on the other – it transfers missiles to Hezbollah in order to threaten Israel."
Fillon added that France is prepared to engage in large-scale economic projects in the area, and cooperate with the Syrians, Jordanians and Palestinians. "I have returned from Damascus and Amman and I can tell you that the gaps between the sides are not too big to resume the process and return to the negotiations table," he said.

Location: Tropical Plant Genetic Resources and Disease Research
2011 Annual Report
Objective 2: Develop methods for improved manipulation and expression of transgenes in key tropical/subtropical ornamental and fruit crop species. [NP 301, C4, PS 4A]
Objective 3: Evaluate biotechnology risk and develop methods for practical adoption of selected transgenic crops. [NP 301, C4, PS 4C]
Genome size distribution in the genus Anthurium, Anthurium genes of agronomic importance and the chloroplast genome of commercial Anthurium are being investigated with the aim of obtaining basic molecular information lacking in this group of plants to support development of improved cultivars.
Research to characterize floral pigments of Anthurium cultivars has been initiated as an alternative and complementary approach to genetic classification, an area which is not completely understood among extant cultivars. This information should be useful for improving breeding programs and production of new cultivars for one of Hawaii's most important commercial tropical flower industries.
Promising lines were discovered during the evaluation of transgenic anthurium for resistance to burrowing nematodes in a shade-house potted plant bioassay. Hot water drenches were conducted on potted dracaena to eradicate reniform nematodes. Insect parasitic nematodes were found to infect and kill coffee berry borer larvae when sprayed on coffee cherries in laboratory conditions.
Bacterial blight of anthurium has adversely affected the profitability of the industry since the 1980s. Screening methods for large quantities of transgenic anthuriums were developed and are being used to determine the practicality and economic feasibility of using transgenic lines as a method of control. Bed trials are being set up to mimic field practices and monitor the horticultural aspects of the plants.
Coffee berry borer (CBB), one of the most devastating coffee pests worldwide, was recently discovered in the Kona coffee growing region of Hawaii. The industry is currently facing its toughest challenge and is desperately seeking ways to control this problem. Research is evaluating the potential for using the commercially available B. bassiana GHA strain as a control method for CBB in Hawaii. Persistence study results indicate that the GHA strain can survive longer than expected in the field. This information provides growers with a potential spray strategy for managing CBB disease on coffee.
In collaboration with the Hawaiian pineapple industry we are conducting research to study flowering manipulation using genetic engineering. We are currently in the process of regenerating plants following transformation of non-flowering traits to the Hawaiian pineapple varieties.
Non-synchronized coffee flowering results in higher high operational costs for both plantations that utilize mechanical harvesting as well as operations that harvest by hand. In addition, the introduction of the Coffee Berry Borer to Kona increases the detriment of non-synchronous flowering and fruit formation by having a constant source of berries for CBB reproduction in the fields. We are using a plant growth regulator and foliar fertilizer approach to provide more synchronous flowering in coffee at locations in Kona, Oahu, and Kauai.

The three new inductees share a unique common bond, as they saw some of their biggest successes through the medium of television. Barbara hosted her own highly-rated variety series on NBC-TV, Barbara Mandrell and the Mandrell Sisters, while Roy co-hosted the long-running musical/comedy series Hee Haw with Buck Owens, which helped bring country music to a mass audience. Multi-instrumentalist Charlie, the most recorded harmonica player in history, was the musical director on Hee Haw for several years. The evening included musical tributes to the new inductees. Rodney Crowell performed Roy Orbison's classic "Candy Man," which featured Charlie McCoy's signature harmonica licks, to honor Charlie. Garth Brooks took the stage during Roy Clark's segment to perform Roy's No. 1 single, "Come Live With Me," while Josh Turner honored Roy with "Thank God and Greyhound." Barbara Mandrell's good friend Reba McEntire sang Barbara's famous hit, "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool," and Barbara's sister Louise performed "Sleeping Single in a Double Bed," Barbara's first No. 1 single.

A wine thief is a glass or plastic pipette used in the process of winemaking to extract a sample of wine. It measures 12"'24 inches in length and usually has a curve at one end to easily draw a sample from a barrel, carboy -- a 5- to 15-gallon glass or plastic container -- or other vessel. So the next time you're in the cellar with a winemaker, ask her to bust out her wine thief and steal you a barrel sample of something yummy.

Taste Changes
Changes in how foods taste may be caused by radiation treatment, dental problems, mouth sores and infections, or some medicines. Many cancer patients who receive chemotherapy notice a bitter taste or other changes in their sense of taste. A sudden dislike for certain foods may occur. This can cause a loss of appetite, weight loss, and a decreased quality of life. Some or all of a normal sense of taste may return, but it may take up to a year after treatment ends. The following may help cancer patients who have taste changes:
- Eat small meals and healthy snacks several times a day.
- Eat meals when hungry rather than at set mealtimes.
- Eat favorite foods and try new foods when feeling best.
- Eat poultry, fish, eggs, and cheese instead of red meat.
- Eat citrus fruits (oranges, tangerines, lemons, grapefruit) unless mouth sores are present.
- Add spices and sauces to foods.
- Eat meat with something sweet, such as cranberry sauce, jelly, or applesauce.
- Find nonmeat, high-protein recipes in a vegetarian or Chinese cookbook.
- Use sugar-free lemon drops, gum, or mints if there is a metallic or bitter taste in the mouth.
- Rinse mouth with water before eating.
- Eat with family and friends.
- Have others prepare the meal.
- Use plastic utensils if foods have a metal taste.
Taking zinc sulfate tablets during radiation therapy to the head and neck may help a normal sense of taste come back faster after treatment.
Dry mouth is often caused by radiation therapy to the head and neck and by certain medicines. Dry mouth may affect speech, taste, and the ability to swallow or to use dentures or braces. There is also an increased risk of cavities and gum disease because less saliva is made to wash the teeth and gums.

Hostess was very nice and friendly. :)
Gastgeberin war sehr nett und freundlich. :)
Nice, clean and calm appartment in the basement. Susanne is firendly and supports you during your stay.
Next Tram station ca. 5 - 10 min walk, next U-Bahn ca. 20 min walk.
Lovely quiet apartment in Ottaking in Vienna, clean and tidy, easy to tram, Westbahnenhof, center, and Schonbrunn. Super and convenient for a few days in Vienna.
Dejlig rolig lejlighed i Ottaking i Wien, rent og pænt, nemt til sporvogn, Westbahnenhof, centrum samt Schønbrunn.
Super og praktisk for nogle dage i Wien.
Beautiful Vienna! Very pleasant, and especially what a pleasure to find all the nights in this lovely apartment, very close to the very center (bus who takes in not even 10 minutes). Good value for money and very friendly landlady! I intend to return + + +
Superbe Vienne ! Séjour très agréable, et surtout quel plaisir de se retrouver tous le soirs dans ce charmant appartement, très proche du l'hyper centre (bus qui y emmène en 10 min même pas). Bon rapport qualité-prix et logeuse super sympa !! Je compte bien y retourner +++
The apartment is in a very tidy condition with good public transport links to the city. The friendly and informative support from the host completes the whole.
Die Wohnung ist in einem sehr ordentlichen Zustand mit guter öffentlicher Anbindung zur Innenstadt. Die freundliche und informative Unterstützung seitens der Gastgeberin rundet das Ganze ab.
Very quiet and clean little apartment. Very friendly and nice Wohnungsvermietrin. Only downside - previous tenant allegedly was a smoker and smell can be felt.
Sehr ruhige und saubere kleine Wohnung. Sehr freundliche und nette Wohnungsvermietrin. Einziger Nachteil - vorheriger Mieter war angeblich ein Raucher und Geruch kann man spüren.
A very nice and quiet apartment. It is situated near both tram and U-bahn (metro), which makes it very easy to get to the central part of Vienna. Hostess Susanne is very friendly and helpful. We recommend this apartment.
I felt very comfortable in the apartment and can only recommend it!
ich habe mich in dem apartment sehr wohl gefühlt und kann es nur weiterempfehlen!
Super Wohnung, sehr zentral gelegen, Vermieterin war super nett, Wohnung können wir jedem empfehlen
This was the first trip to Vienna for my husband and myself. We arrived via Flixbus at Erdberg bus station, which was handily only a few stops away on the U-bahn. We had been delayed by the bus company and were worried about getting into the flat. However, we arrived at the address and Susanne popped up as if by magic! She was very friendly and helpful, and showed us up to the lovely apartment - the lift was certainly handy as it's on the 6th floor. The view was super and as the weather was very hot, Susanne had a fan switched on. This fan was essential for our comfort during our stay in a hot July week.
We got good advice from Susanne about the handy S7 train to the airport (cheaper than the CAT) and also the useful shopping mall at Wien Mitte station.
Because the weather was so hot we didn't use the duvet on the bed but used the clean duvet cover we found in a drawer as a bedspread. The bed was very comfortable.
The kitchen had mod cons - a few things felt a little greasy but washing up liquid and new sponges were supplied so we cleaned up a couple of things. We used the coffee maker and gas hob, which were fine. There was also a microwave which we didn't need to use - and we made use of the washing machine which was in the bathroom. This worked fine, as did the shower.
The flat was very convenient and we had an enjoyable stay. There are good restaurants and pubs not far away. We were also able to walk to all the sights we got time to see, which saved us money on transport - but there is so much to see in Vienna that we ran out of time. We wanted to try the City Bikes but again, didn't have time in the end. The station for the train to the airport is within easy walking distance (we travel light) and so I would say the location is perfect. Thanks very much to Susanne for a great place to stay.

Students participating in community, continuation and special education school programs in Sacramento County will use their knowledge about technology in today's world, as well as their quick thinking skills, when they compete in the 5th Annual Sacramento County Academic Bowl.
The event takes place this Wednesday, December 12, 2012 at Rosemont High School located at 9594 Kiefer Boulevard, Sacramento starting 10:45 a.m. Winners announced around 1:15 p.m.
The Sacramento County Academic Bowl takes place before a live audience and a panel of judges, students representing four community, continuation or special education high schools in Sacramento County compete in the 5th Annual Academic Bowl. The 2012-2013 theme is A World Transformed – Technological Turning Points.
Schools competing this year:
* E.L. Hickey Jr./Sr. High School (SCOE)
* Gerber Jr./Sr. High School (SCOE)
* Leo A. Palmiter Jr./Sr. High School (SCOE)
* Williams Daylor High School (EGUSD)
The Sacramento County Academic Bowl is an academic competition held each year for students attending community, continuation or special education schools. Students compete on five to eight member teams in two academic events centered on a theme. The first event is a Super Quiz (game show style) competition in which students answer questions based on the theme. In the second event, students use a PowerPoint project to deliver a "live" presentation on a specific aspect of the theme.
Students spend time in class and after school to prepare for this demanding competition. In addition to mastering the academic content, which is based on California's content standards, students also learn about teamwork, computer and presentation skills, goal setting, and leadership.

Heh. Not really. Don't be silly. It's been 3 years, 1 month since registration broke, viz. the 'work around' method of claiming that you 'forgot' your password. Registration proper broke well before that. For a time I thought that having a 'closed community' was actually a good thing, since it prevented the nutters and Dogz spin-offs infecting our space. But the special volume of crap that Dogz produced was the product of a very ill mind; TW worked pretty well before that.Evan, ever beneficent and ever merciful, appears generous enough to keep TW running for the sake of its users, as a place where they can occasionally reunite. However, there becomes a point where board activity is so low that the frequency of users' visits diminishes: if there are no incentives for people to return, they naturally move on. In other words, to keep TW alive as a meeting place, it may be necessary to open its doors again. As it stands, the board languishes in a kind of Terri Schiavo-vegetation, neither quite alive nor dead, with the promise of a similar seven-year court case, in which Dogz wrangles for the ownership rights. A couple of practical concerns:1) Evan is a very busy man with big responsibilities: the reports of numerous superhuman feats of his rescuing of babies from blazing car wreckages, etc. are well-documented on the board. I know nothing of the mechanics of TW's registration process, but I guess it would require a couple of hours work at the most. This level of attention over a three year period isn't that demanding.2) Much generic message board software nowadays uses Captcha or similar to prevent spammers infiltrating the forum. I am not sure, however, if this would be a concern for TW because a) I think the particular board software TW uses is not that popular (IIRC), b) board registration is bizarrely interlinked with the main site. I don't know if these points would deflect spammers or not. If not, obviously much more work would be involved and I understand the reluctance to fix it.
Funny enough, Auntie, I was about to post a couple questions regarding this site. 1) I've been off the TW radar for a bit, so what really happened to Evan - do we really know?^- I guess this is my main question...2) This is not to sound ill of everyone and I do thank Evan for keeping us alive, but how many people do frequent this site on a regular basis anymore? The main question I am seeing from various people is, how are we still standing? I've seen only a handful of "regulars" post the past couple days; does that mean the oldies have finally given up as well? Is no one into the old bantering anymore? Or has all the anons and spam spawns ruined it?3) I think you have a point regarding the captchas, but the way the technology is going, I think one day captchas will be void because spammers will get a way round it. 4) And on the subject of linking things (registration, ect), do you really think because we've lost so many people over the years, it might make fixing easier? I know nothing about the workings of sites, but my thinking is it would make it harder to fix because so many people dropped off, and trolling thru the current wreckage might take time to see who actually is still round. I could be wrong and welcome someone saying I'm wrong.5) We can't edit our posts anymore? Just delete them? (once we've submitted them to the thread)6) Since we can't edit our registrations and all that on the main fan registry, I suppose our mail is still going to when people had their TW email (like myself - my reg is still under my TW logins). What happened to that? Bigmailbox go under, or is that something we can't do anymore? (not that I remember the pw) I used to like giving out my teenagewildlife email address. Made people ask me whether or not I'm doing porn. Kinda funny.Ta._____________________________________Jareth's speech: Love Me, Fear Me, Do as I say, and I will be your slave.

I'm game I went to a restaurant that serves 'breakfast at any time'. So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.

1) I've been off the TW radar for a bit, so what really happened to Evan - do we really know?
I guess Adam or K would be the ones who know, as they are at least in (very) occasional contact with him. They probably only discuss basic admin stuff, though.
In reply to: 2) does that mean the oldies have finally given up as well? Is no one into the old bantering anymore?
2) does that mean the oldies have finally given up as well? Is no one into the old bantering anymore?
Kinda. Which oldies were you hoping to see? I think most activity between the oldies these days, if they still visit at all, is carried out through PMs. As for bantering, TW seems much mellower these days than it used to be, i.e. both less confrontational and less creative.
In reply to: 3) captchas
3) captchas
Yeah, you're right. I can't see Evan introducing captchas any time soon. I can't answer question 4.
In reply to: 5) We can't edit our posts anymore? Just delete them? (once we've submitted them to the thread)
5) We can't edit our posts anymore? Just delete them? (once we've submitted them to the thread)
Again, that's because part of the software has been corrupted somewhere. We are supposed to be able to edit our posts, although maybe we can ask K or Adam what kind of things Evan has suggested he is willing or unwilling to repair. It may be that Evan has told them only to contact him in the event of a cataclysmic board failure (Ooops! messages, or being unable to log-in). As it happens, I think several things need urgent attention.
In reply to: TW email
TW email
I never used it myself, but I believe that died years ago.Bizarrely, the 'old' TW message board seems to be working okay, although it chiefly consists of a guy called Ess Bee talking to himself.
In regards to Adam and K having contact with Evan, at least there is some communication going, even if it is admin stuff. I just was curious as to what had happened to Evan; never really understood the idea of why Mr. Torrie left to begin with (was there a reason besides his illness?).I remember a time when the boards were filled with people chatting about. Whether it was relevant to the site or not. People like Ruskie, Dukewhite, Beckie (she and Mark were room mates at one point), Etheraldawn (or whatever it was � Frank� also from NY, friends with Mark and Beckie), Kristinmachina� people that were around several years ago� before the site went down hill. I�ve noticed there�s been a bit of a loss for creativity. Looks like I missed a lot!No worries about captchas and question 4� just thinking out loud.It sucks that somewhere, somehow the software has been corrupted. Maybe Evan is waiting for us all to piss off completely before he shuts the site down for good. Who knows. But at least we�re still here for the moment! I know the TW email died about 5 years ago or so. Bigmailbox went under or something, and it dominoed to everyone who used it. just sad for the people who had the accounts and registered with it� like my email in my fan registry says abe11825 at teenagewildlife dot com. I changed my name over to Patches a few years ago and at that point, I think it was when the email server went south. Wow, never realized there was an old board� interesting!I�m not asking for much� just some random thoughts about the site. Maybe I missed the thread(s) about the whys and whens. Just when I saw your post, I figured I�d ask. Appreciate the time you put in to respond though and I understand you don�t have the reasons. I thank you! They are still better then nothing! _____________________________________Jareth's speech: Love Me, Fear Me, Do as I say, and I will be your slave. Heathen track: Show me who you are And I would be your slaveCoincidence? I think not.
For the record, the last time I communicated with Evan was in 2002. Since I became the admin I have not once communicated with him and I do not even have his contact information. Whether Adam has been in contact with him I do not know.Trololololololololololololololololo
Oh wow, K, 9 years? That's kind of worrying because people like you and Adam are (for lack of better phrasing) Running the site (as well as other admins or mods). But like I said, it was just random thoughts and questions since I've come back. I'm not looking for definitive / set in stone information. Things maybe other people can help me with._____________________________________Jareth's speech: Love Me, Fear Me, Do as I say, and I will be your slave.

Right ho, Squiffy! Bally Jerry, pranged his kite right in the How's-Your-Father. Harry Blighter, dicky-birdied, feathered back on his Sammy, took a waspy, flipped over on his Betty Harper's and caught his can in the Bertie.I don't walk it like I talk it cause I run it
Regarding captchas, they are actually something I've been thinking that should be implemented (alas, that cannot be done by the resources avaiable to an admin which are actually fairly limited) as the would make it possible to open anonymous/unregistered commenting again which would be a possibly way to work around the problem of registration not working, since registration is not nescessary to post anonymously. However, without captchas or another equivalent system the boards would be flooded with spam.And in any case, changes made to the message board (even if they were possible) will be of little to no help unless the main site is brought up to date again. Few people will feel inclined to visit the message board of a website that's last been updated in 2003 and as such even if registration was fixes we'd likely be stuck with the same old users (plus maybe a bunch of new Dogz alters).Trololololololololololololololololo

Relax at SpaXSW
by: Laurie Lyons
OK, so maybe I just made that SpaXSW thing up…
If you're anything like most people I know, you already need a vacation before SX even starts. The giant game of party-Tetris is enough to make one want to pack it up and head north for Spring Break. Who am I kidding, though, SX is the best time of year, especially when you make a little extra time to take care of yourself either before, after, or hell, during the fest. If you're looking for a little bit of pampering this month, here are a couple of relaxing options:
Austin's newest and most awesome spa is Hiatus Spa + Retreat. During the fest they are offering a SXSW Escape promotion-anyone can come in and book a service for 25% off, or any two services for 30% off (discount not valid on member pricing). You can find Hiatus at 1611 West 5th Street, Suite 155, just west of all of the downtown madness.
At Lakeway Resort and Spa in the gorgeous Central Texas Hill Country you can find a post-SX special of $125 per night, from March 18-22 (use promo code SPRING). Current spa specials include the Citrus Spa Pedicure and San Saba Spa Delight.

The California State Senate unanimously passed a bill Thursday that its backers say would protect the rights of drivers by regulating red-light cameras.
The bill by state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, would establish statewide standards for the installation and operation of traffic enforcement cameras and make it easier to challenge tickets.
"This bill is designed to establish some ground rules around the use of red-light cameras, and make sure that drivers' rights are protected," Simitian said in a statement. "We want to be sure that if drivers get a ticket that they shouldn't have, they have a way to contest the ticket that's relatively quick and convenient."
Senate Bill 1303 proposes to protect drivers' rights by:
Requiring that camera locations be chosen because of safety considerations, not on their potential to generate revenue.
Requiring cities and counties to follow state standards in the placement and operation of cameras.
Requiring adequate signs to notify drivers when red-light cameras are in use.
Prohibiting so-called "snitch tickets."
Making it easier for a wrongfully ticketed driver to get a ticket cleared.
"I don't oppose red-light cameras per se. But I believe that traffic tickets should only be issued to improve public safety, not to raise revenue," said Simitian, adding that his constituents frequently express concerns about the devices.
Simitian tried to pass a similar bill last year, but it was vetoed by Gov. Jerry Brown. In his veto message, Brown said establishing standardized rules for red-light cameras "can and should be overseen by local elected officials."
The bill was a product of Simitian's "There Oughta Be a Law" contest. San Jose resident Vera Gill proposed the law after receiving multiple tickets from red-light cameras for a car in Southern California that she does not own and has never driven, according to the senator's office.

$1M check to support Grammy museum
Gov. Phil Bryant was to deliver a $1 million check Thursday to the Cleveland Music Foundation to support the proposed Grammy museum in Cleveland.
The museum, styled after Los Angeles' Grammy Museum, would use interactive exhibits to commemorate Mississippi's musical heritage and attract tourists to the Delta region.
The check is the first installment of money guaranteed to the project from the state.
Cleveland and Bolivar County are also making large commitments to the project.
The rest of the funding is expected to come from personal donations.
Bryant's check presentation will be 10:30 a.m. in the Hugh Ellis Walker Alumni House on the campus of Delta State University in Cleveland.

This history of chocolate is as rich and creamy as the delectable treat we enjoy today. The discovery of the secrets of the cacao plant is most often credited to ancient cultures of Mexico and Central American some 2000 years ago. At this time chocolate was enjoyed as a bitter drink seasoned with spices and even hot chili peppers. Today new archeological evidence points back even further to 1400 B.C.E., when chocolate may have even been fermented and turned into an alcoholic beverage of the time. Did anyone say chocolate martini?
Regardless of cacao's exact discovery, its history is one of fable and legend. The Mayans and Aztecs believed it to be magical or even divine. Both cultures used this bitter drink in the sacred rituals of birth, marriage and death. Even Montezuma, the Aztec king, is said to have confused the Spanish explorer Cortes for a reincarnated deity instead of a conquering invader after feasting on the chocolate drink. In comparison, the rest of chocolate's history is one of tasteful delight.
By the 17th century, chocolate had finally made its way across the Atlantic and became a fashionable drink throughout Europe with medicinal and even aphrodisiac properties. Casanova himself was even rumored to be especially fond of the drink. It wasn't until the end of the 18th century that drink became a confection and the first solid chocolate was formed.
During the American Revolutionary War this solid chocolate was so valued it was used in lieu of wages. By the middle of the 19th century the Cadbury brothers and Henri Nestle had emerged as premiere Chocolatiers. By 1900, Milton Hershey formed the Hershey Chocolate Company and began producing affordable chocolate bars for the masses. In 1907, the world was introduced to the Hershey Kiss and has been enjoying them ever since.
Today there has been what is described as a chocolate revolution, with marked increasing interest in high-quality, hand made chocolates. In the United States alone chocolate production is a 4-billion-dollar industry and the average American eats as much as half a pound per month. Efforts to produce greener chocolate with sustainable cacao farming and harvesting methods are continuing to be developed throughout the world.
So whether or not you're enjoying a Hershey Kiss, a chocolate martini or $120 per pound Godiva chocolate, rest assured chocolate is here to stay!

Speaking to ET, TCIL managing director Bushen Raina said the company is banking on packaging innovation for its growth. The technology group of the company is working closely with Nippon Steel Corporation of Japan for introducing new projects and improving on the existing ones. The group intends to develop Creasteel and is also considering the development of the concept of homo pet coating on tin free steel.

Greta Van Susteren squeaks onto Forbes' 'powerful women' list
Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.), one of the most moderate Republicans in Congress, is now a supporter of same-sex marriage, making him one of only a handful of GOP lawmakers to take that position as his party continues to struggle with the issue.
After a federal judge ruled Pennsylvania's ban on gay marriage unconstitutional last week — a ban Dent voted for as a state representative in 1996 — Dent congratulated gay couples in his state and signaled his position change was imminent. But Dent, who said he has been evolving on the issue for some time, said he needed more time to get his thoughts together before making an official statement.
Wednesday he was ready.
"Life is too short to have the force of government stand in the way of two adults whose pursuit of happiness includes marriage," Dent said in a statement provided first to The Washington Post.
"In future generations the label same-sex marriage will be abandoned, to be replaced simply by marriage," Dent said, quoting from the Pennsylvania ruling. He went on to say that in "conversations with my family, I have come to realize that they already see the world through that lens."
To congressional observers, it may be a surprise that Dent didn't already support marriage equality. He backed the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" and co-sponsored bills to give same-sex couples equal immigration rights and to protect gay employees from workplace discrimination. He has been endorsed by the Log Cabin Republicans, an advocacy group for gay rights.
Log Cabin Republicans National Executive Director Gregory T. Angelo called Dent's announcement "a natural continuation of his commitment to equal rights for all Americans."
Dent, who lives in Allentown, gained national attention as one of the first Republicans to stand up to House leadership over the 2013 federal government shutdown. He is running unopposed this year in a district that was redrawn after the 2010 Census to be a little more Republican, but is still fairly moderate.
"As a Republican, I value equality, personal freedom and a more limited role for government in our lives," Dent said in his statement. "I believe this philosophy should apply to the issue of marriage as well."
In an interview last week, Dent predicted that in 20 years people will wonder "what all the fuss was about."
Although the pendulum of public support for same-sex marriage has swung dramatically in the last several years, only a few GOP members of Congress are openly in favor of it. Dent has joined a small club that includes Sens. Rob Portman (Ohio), Mark Kirk (Ill.) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), and Reps. Richard Hanna (N.Y.) and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (Fla.).
It is said that the problem with the younger generation — any younger generation — is that it has not read the minutes of the last meeting. Barack Obama, forever young, has convenient memory loss: It serves his ideology. His amnesia concerning the policies that produced the robust recovery from the more severe (measured by its 10.8 percent unemployment rate) recession of 1981-82 has produced policies that have resulted in 0.1 percent economic growth in 2014's first quarter — the 56th, 57th and 58th months of the recovery from the recession that began in December 2007.

Vince Lombardi Leadership Case Study is a part of Leadership Stories, a series of biographies of great leaders in history that have impacted the world in a huge way.
Vince Lombardi is one of America's most famous football coaches. He was the assistant coach for the New York Giants from 1954 – 1958 and served as Head Coach for the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League.
He led them to five league championships during his 9 years as coach from 1959 to 1967.
Vince Lombardi was born in Brooklyn in June 11 1913.
At age 15, Vince Lombardi wanted to become a Catholic Priest, but later on decided otherwise. He was an outstanding football and baseball player in St. Francis Preparatory School.
At age 20, he played football for Fordham University and although he was undersized, he was a named along with 6 others as the Seven Blocks of Granite, which was given to the Fordham team's offensive line.
Lombardi's first coaching job began at St. Cecilla as assistant coach. When the head coach left, he stayed on in St Cecilla to serve as head coach for 7 years.
After that, he would go on to his second coaching job at the U.S Military Academy as assistance coach. This experience in the military would shape his coaching style for many years to come.
His first experience with the NFL came in 1954, when he went in as assistant coach under the New York Giants. Lombardi with his team managed to turn the New York Giants around and win their first league title in 1956.
He went on the Green Bay Packers in 1959 as head coach and to a team who had basically almost lost their whole season. He turned this team around and in the span of 9 years, they won 5 league championships, winning two Super Bowls.
Lombardi eventually became known as one of the best football coaches in the history of football.
These are some of the awards and honors that Vince Lombardi has received:
• The Green Packer's Stadium was renamed Lambeau Field in honor of Lombardi in 1967
• Vince Lombardi Cancer Clinic in Green Bay was named after him.
• NFL's World Championship Trophy was renamed Vince Lombardi Trophy shortly after his death
•The Boy Scouts of America awarded Vince Lombardi the Silver Buffalo Award.
1.It's about Winning
Lombardi saw the importance of winning in any game and in life. He couldn't accept defeat as final and he was single minded in winning his games.
People all want to be part of a winning team; they want to be associated with success and victories. You need to desire to win and outplay the competition and not fall into the trap of mediocrity.
2.Pay the Price it Takes
Lombardi knew that the price of success was hard work. He believed it and he gave his team an extremely regimental training. This inculcated discipline in them, and helped them win their championships.
You cannot bypass hard work for it is the only way to success. Remember that for the bigger success you desire, the more hard work you have to put in. Pay the price in hard work and tell your team to pay for the price for it too.
3.Teamwork is Essential
Lombardi saw the importance of teamwork and he emphasized a lot on it. He saw that team work was the way to win, whether it was in the game or in life.
We need each other to succeed. As a leader, you need your team fully behind you and supporting you if you want to see success corporately. You need to emphasize the importance of teamwork and build an organization that has a good team culture.
The greatest accomplishment is not in never falling, but in rising again after you fall.
The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender.
The leader can never close the gap between himself and the group. If he does, he is no longer what he must be. He must walk a tightrope between the consent he must win and the control he must exert.
The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.
Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.
People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.
Success demands singleness of purpose.
Fatigue makes cowards of us all.
Football is like life - it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.
I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.
If you can accept losing, you can't win.
Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.
Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.
Practice does not make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect.
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. That's real glory. That's the essence of it.
There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game and that is first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay and I never want to finish second again.
We didn't lose the game; we just ran out of time.
Dictionary is the only place that success comes before work. Hard work is the price we must pay for success. I think you can accomplish anything if you're willing to pay the price.
It's easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you're a winner, when you're number one. What you got to have is faith and discipline when you're not a winner.
Leaders aren't born they are made. And they are made just like anything else, through hard work. And that's the price we'll have to pay to achieve that goal, or any goal.
Live as if you were living already for the second time and as if you had acted the first time as wrongly as you are about to act now!
Once you agree upon the price you and your family must pay for success, it enables you to ignore the minor hurts, the opponent's pressure, and the temporary failures.
We would accomplish many more things if we did not think of them as impossible.
Winners never quit and quitters never win.
Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all time thing. You don't win once in a while, you don't do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
Winning isn't everything, but the will to win is everything.
The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.
The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavour.
Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.
Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another.
The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.
The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.

Definitions (2)
1.Advertising: Large number of print ads or commercial spots that, even if smaller or lower in quality, add up to a cost effective alternative to larger, more sophisticated, or expensive promotional messages.
2.Shipping: Various measures of the cargo carrying capacity or the volume of a ship: (1) Gross registered tonnage (GRT) is the total enclosed space of a ship expressed in registered tons of 100 cubic feet (2.832 cubic meters) each. GRT is a measure of the space available for cargo, crew, passengers, and stores, and is usually the basis for computing drydock charges. Also called gross tonnage. (2) Under deck tonnage (UDT) is GRT less a ship's bridge, deck house, forecastle, and poop. (3) Net registered tonnage (NRT) is GRT less space occupied by the crew, engines, fuel, and navigation equipment.In general, GRT and NRT are in the ratio of 3:2 or, in other words, NRT is roughly equal to 60 percent of GRT. Also called net tonnage, it is usually the basis for computing harbor or port charges. (4) Dead weight tonnage (DWT) is the maximum weight (mass) of a ship when loaded up to its summer load line (see Plimsoll line) and is the sum of the weights of the cargo, crew, fuel, passengers, and stores. On average, DWT is about 60 percent of the GRT. (5) Displacement tonnage is the weight of water displaced by a ship computed on the basis that 35 cubic feet of salt water weigh one long ton (2240 pounds).
Use tonnage in a sentence
You need to be able to handle all of the tonnage you will receive and sometimes it may be more than you expect.
We had a tonnage agreement and it did not work out for us because our sales did not get higher after we did it.
If you are going to be receiving a big shipment you need to be sure that you will be able to handle all of the tonnage.

text: hyderabad: shantha biotechnics would no longer remain a single product company, as it successfully launched its indigenous recombinant anti-cancer vaccine — shanferon — here on thursday. the company aims to quickly widen its product portfolio before seeking to list on the us markets. "we are the first in the country to launch the indigenously developed human interferon alpha," mr varaprasad reddy, managing director, shantha biotechnics, told press persons. shantha had also launched the country's first indigenous hepatitis-b vaccine. although the global market for interferon is pegged at $1.5 billion, shantha, to begin with, is keen to make its presence felt in the rs 70-crore domestic market. "presently, only 2 out of 10 patients can actually afford interferon, due to the high cost of imported interferon," he said. "but we would price it 30-40 per cent lower than the prevailing market price in india, thereby making it affordable to many more patients in the country," reddy said. shanferon is a yeast-derived human interferon alpha, produced using the r-dna technology. the yeast (pichia pastoris) is genetically engineered to produce interferon alpha, suitable for human therapeutic use. "shanferon has a higher specific activity, compared to internationally available recombinant interferon derived from e.coli," he said. shantha biotechnics plans to flood the domestic interferon market with capacities at almost a million doses per annum. the innovator of interferon — schering-plough (sp), us — markets interferon in india through its subsidiary fulford india. shantha is also working on other products of the likes of human insulin, streptokinase, typhoid, tuberculosis, and combination vaccines. "presently, we have two products ie, hepatitis-b and interferon. after adding few more products, we plan to get the company listed on the us markets," reddy said. shantha biotechnics had successfully raised rs 50 crore last year by placing 1 million shares with sbi caps and morgan stanley at rs 500 per share.

Boone County sheriff's deputies are trying to find out what happened to the driver of a wrecked car.
Deputies were called to the 15000 block of U.S. 42 in Verona just after 5 a.m. to find a Ford Probe overturned in a creek.
The car was full of water, but no driver was found, deputies said. It appeared to have been going westbound when it crashed.
The sheriff's office said the registered owner in Corinth realized it was missing when deputies contacted them about the accident.
Deputies don't know how long after the crash the car was found.

Recipe: Vegetarian Lasagna with a Surprise Ingredient
Lasagna is the quintessential easy–to–throw–together, comforting, affordable and satisfying dish to serve a crowd. Think of the bubbly cheesiness being cut through by bright tomato sauce and perfectly cooked noodles. It's the perfect food!
This recipe also includes my secret weapon ingredient, which lightens the richness up a smidge and no one will ever know. Can you guess what this mystery item is? Don't knock it till you try it!
This recipe also calls for a jar of tomato sauce. While I'm all for making homemade sauce, occasionally I'll just use a jar I keep in the pantry to make life easier. If you want to go the distance and make your own sauce, by all means, this would be a lovely opportunity to use it but if you're in a jam, here are some recommendations for store-bought from Bon Appetíit.
1 lb no-boil lasagna noodles
5 cups (usually 1 1/2 jars) of tomato sauce (I like Whole Foods 365 Brand, no added sugars or preservatives)
1 15-ounce package of extra firm tofu
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
3/4 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
1 15-ounce can jarred roasted peppers (or roast 2 red peppers yourself)
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
salt and pepper to taste
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the tofu, ricotta and mozzarella cheese with your hands. Squeeze it to get the mixture even and smooth. Add the smoked paprika and salt and pepper to this cheese/tofu mixture. This may take a few minutes and your hands are the best tool in the kitchen for breaking down the tofu and getting it to evenly incorporate with the cheeses.
Preheat oven to 400
Lastly, pour about 1 cup of the tomato sauce onto the cheese mixture, spreading the sauce as evenly as possible (don't stress this too much, as I said before it will all melt to become one yummy slice!). Repeat this process three times, ending with a pasta top. To this final pasta layer, add more sauce and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese all over the top.
Cover in foil and bake for about 45 minutes. Remove foil and broil on high for 3-5 minutes more. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

They come from around Nebraska to volunteer, to raise the tents and the cattleman and lady power it takes to throw the Cattlemen's Ball.
2012 Cattlemen's Ball Co-Chair Paul Underwood: "It's Exeter and Fairmont and Geneva and York and Henderson and Bruning, and you know, people come from all over. If we had one of us was trying to do something to benefit cancer, we'd be kind of lost in the sea, but when you've got 600 people volunteering, then all of a sudden, it'll work."
The tents are empty as of Friday afternoon, but they'll soon be filled with over forty-five hundred people who'll come dressed country cool and country chic, and ready to have a good time.
They'll be settling in for some top-shelf Nebraska beef and Nebraska wines, while raising funds for the University of Nebraska's Eppley Cancer Center.
Various items and services will be auctioned, like 200 hours with a major harvester rig.
Entertainment will fill the tents with comedy, a polka band, and dueling pianos.
They'll have a ball, but the attire is more Black Angus than black tie.
2012 Cattlemen's Ball Hostess Shelly Clark: "Since it's called a ball, a lot of people think you have to come all dressed up, fancy attire; no you don't."
So what to wear to the "Trail Boss Reception?"
Shelly Clark: "The big cowboy belts, the rhinestones and stuff like that, they'll have on."
Cattlemen's Ball Advisory Board member Dick Miles: "The deal of the ball is we're promoting beef, and finding a cure for cancer."
And they're putting some big numbers on the board.
Paul Underwood: "We're hoping to send a million plus to UNMC Eppley in Omaha, and ten percent will stay here in the local communities."
