SPOILER ALERT: This blog is for people watching the second series of Homeland on Channel 4. Don't read on if you haven't seen episode 12.
Catch up with Rebecca Nicholson's episode 11 blog
The Choice
In a recent blogpost, I wrote that Homeland needed to flip the switch. Obviously the producers postponed their filming schedule, paid close attention, and decided that yes, why not, let's listen to the Guardian and do it. Let's blow it all up. Let's blow up David Estes, Cynthia Walden, Finn Walden, and nearly 200 other members of the CIA and government. Let's string together some semblance of a considered narrative arc, insist that this was Nazir's plan all along, and prove that we have some guts for the first time since Carrie told Brody she knew he was a terrorist after all.
I think it paid off, eventually. For the first half we were given a lot of gloomy foreshadowing and not much else, as Brody and Carrie repeatedly asked each other if they had a shot at a future. "We might make it," said Carrie. "We could be happy, couldn't we?" said Brody. After the fifth doe-eyed "Ooh, maybe we can cuddle and snuggle forever and ever", it was clear that this wasn't going to end with our doomed romantic leads running off to Vegas for a quickie wedding.
However, Quinn's about-turn didn't quite ring true for me, though I suppose this series has shown its crack soldiers to be a bit rubbish (see also the Gettysburg raid, Carrie's sweep of the tunnel), so it shouldn't be a surprise. I'm pleased Estes got a small comeuppance, before his big mortal comeuppance, but would Quinn really have decided not to pull the trigger at the last minute because of a crisis of conscience? Are black ops allowed to decide who they bump off based on a personal moral call? Given that "Will Quinn shoot Brody?" positioned itself as the main cliffhanger last week, the "Oh no, he won't" felt a little flat.
Still, at least Saul got out of the clink, which looked like a meeting room, in time to suggest that Carrie – an agent seemingly incapable of following any orders, who is bipolar and may or may not have memory issues, depending on whether the writers have (and this is ironic) remembered them or not – is in line to become the youngest station chief in the history of the CIA. It's everything she ever wanted. But does she want Brody more? "You're the smartest and the dumbest fuckin' person I've ever known," spits Saul. (That's season two for you. No consistency.)
This is The Choice, then, and Carrie's hand is finally forced at Walden's memorial service. When the two sneak out for some inappropriate mid-ceremony snogging, somebody moves Brody's car. Then blows it to pieces. Love really has saved them, though not in the way they might have expected. The explosion was genuinely shocking. I'd lost faith in the show's ability to be unpredictable and bold, and this came at exactly the right time. I also enjoyed the fact that, once again, who we could trust was drawn into question. Carrie doubted Brody, and for good reason. He was reduced to pleading with her about his soul. If he is in fact innocent – which he probably is, given the way it ended – this is a nice way of maintaining a necessary, tiny semblance of doubt.
It doesn't even matter that the idea that this entire series has been moving towards Nazir's masterplan, right down to his own death, is Skyfall-daft. When Brody's suicide video appeared on TV, it was one of the most jaw-dropping moments we've seen so far. I worried that Carrie really would go on the run with him, and that season three would be reduced to some tedious Bonnie & Clyde adventure, so I'm glad she turned back (it would have been even better if she'd handed him in).
However, it does look like she's going to spend season three simultaneously running the CIA and trying to get her boyfriend off the hook for quite a bad crime. Perhaps Quinn will get involved, since he's now following the Carrie Mathison Code of Conduct. Maybe Saul will help, now that Mira is back to lift his cloud of doom. And perhaps culling half the cast with a bloody massive bomb will help Homeland to pull its socks up. Season two has been exciting, tense, infuriating and absurd in equal measure. After that ending, will you be tuning in for season three?
Notes and observations
• Still no mole. If it was Estes, who is now dead, does this mean the writers have dropped that thread, or will it be an ongoing concern in season three?
• The list of the confirmed dead being read off an iPad felt particularly cold, although practical.
• One last plausibility point – a fake passport isn't going to be much use for Brody, given that he was a famous Congressman even before he was suspected of the worst terrorist attack on American soil and plastered all over the news, and that he hasn't even bothered to stick a wig on for the photo.
• There was a fairly heavy-handed plug for Rolling Rock, Captain Mike's drink of choice, in this episode. Yet more material for his inevitable culinary spin-off series, Mike v Food. (It will feature a lot of eggs.)
• That American flag in tatters, burning, was subtle, wasn't it? Oh.
• Here's an excellent interview with Homeland's showrunner, Alex Gansa, who addresses plotholes, plausibility and lots of other issues we've raised during these blogs.
• Thank you for all the comments, even the ones who told me off for losing faith. As always, it's been a pleasure to read them and it makes this blog a lot of fun to write.

Stampley returns to Milwaukee in Skylight Music Theatre's 'Porgy & Bess'

First Stage's 'Best Christmas Pageant Ever' scores hit
Scrooge may hog the theatrical limelight during the holiday season, but he's hardly the only one with a story of improbable redemption. Just ask the six troublemaking Herdman kids, who are doing some attention-grabbing of their own in First Stage Children's Theater's eighth production of "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever."
Early in the Barbara Robinson novel that inspired this play, the narrating Beth Bradley tells us that she and her classmates figured the Herdman clan — poor, dirty and rough — "were headed straight for hell." Sure enough, director Jeff Schaetzke opens the show by bringing the Herdmans onstage from below, surrounded by a swirl of smoke. »Read Full Article(2)

Skies have been very slow to clear today thanks to some low level moisture and still some lift provided by our upper level system that is very slowly pushing east. Clouds have started to clear in Louisville and Carthage along Highway 25. The clearing will continue to work south and clear us out this evening, setting the stage for cold overnights and chilly afternoons leading into Christmas.
A strong area of high pressure is sliding southward through the central Plains and will start to move east tomorrow, being to our north and then northeast on Christmas Day and east of us by Thursday. This will send a few clouds in our direction for Christmas Day and more for Thursday as some moisture begins to return thanks to southwest winds around 18,000 feet.
Overnight lows for the foreseeable future look to remain in below freezing, including lows near 20 for Christmas morning, and highs in the 40s for Christmas Eve and struggling to 50 for Christmas Day. We return to normal highs in the upper 50s/lower 60s for the weekend before our next cold front arrives on Sunday. Right now, it looks to be dry, but will drop temperatures as we start the final few days of 2013.

Photos: Chisora Outworks Johnson, Tyson Fury KO's Abell
Copper Box Arena, London - Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13KOs) had little trouble in outworking Kevin Johnson (29-5-1, 14KOs) to retain the WBO & WBA International heavyweight titles with a twelve round unanimous decision. The scores were 118-109, 118-110 and 118-109. Johnson was down in the fifth.
It was vulnerability and some boxing ability from Tyson Fury. The flamboyant British heavyweight survived some scary moments but ultimately annihilated American mid-Western journeyman Joey "Minnesota Ice" Abell in four rounds with the same number of knockdowns. WBO #7 and WBC #8 Fury (now 22-0, with 16 KOs) was out of action for ten months. Abell is now 29-8, with 28 KOs.
FURY will be destroyed if he steps in the ring with WLAD,he will have a big payday but nothing good in the ring,he is too hittable and KLIT is a killer also with the jab. FURY is a big big…Comment by Mr Ehrmantraut on 02-16-2014

Entering "featured image" on a product, the product title is replaced by the "featured image".
We would appreciate your help to fix it.
Obviously this is not default WooCommerce behaviour :-) This is a consequence of editing the product template (
content-product.php). This will have either been done in your theme, or in WooCommerce core.
Unfortunately I can't really help without access to your site / code but I'd recommend that you compare that file in your theme/WooCommerce install with a version from a fresh download of WooCommerce.
Thanks James!
We haven't modified "content-product.php", but anyway we have compared and replaced, without success. The same problem happen with posts¿? How do you think we could fix it? Why it happens?
Thanks in advance.
Finally we could confirm, that our problem is caused by Pinpoint theme, we have tried a preview with "Twenty twelve" theme, it looks well, the product's name isn't replaced by the featured image.
Somebody know how we could fix it? We appreciate any help! Thanks
Well, all solved!
The problem was caused by an incompatibility between pinpoint theme and nav menu images plugin. The solution was deactivate nav menu images plugin. Thanks to swiftpsd support!!

Gale Sayers' six touchdowns -- four rushes, one pass reception and a punt return -- against San Francisco in 1965 tied the NFL record and put an exclamation mark on his sensational rookie season. Sayers seemed to be the only player who could keep his footing during the 61-20 romp in the mud of Wrigley Field. The win improved the Bears to 9-4 and avenged a 52-24 opening day loss to the 49ers that same season.
Final score: Bears 62, 49ers 20.
San Francisco 49ers players take the field before the start of Super Bowl XLVII on Sunday at the Superdome in New Orleans.

A number of years ago, accompanied by an excellent Jesuit director, I did a 30-day retreat using the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. In the third week, there's a meditation on Jesus' agony in the garden. I did the meditation to the best of my ability and met with my director to discuss the result. He wasn't satisfied and asked me to repeat the exercise.
Recently a new expression has made its way into our theological and ecclesial vocabulary. There's a lot of talk today about the New Evangelization. Indeed the pope has called for a synod to meet this year for a month in Rome to try to articulate a vision and strategy for such an endeavour.
Several years ago, a Presbyterian minister I know challenged his congregation to open its doors and its heart more fully to the poor. The congregation initially responded with enthusiasm and a number of programs were introduced that invited people from the less-privileged economic areas of the city, including a number of street people, to come their church.
There are different kinds of power and different kinds of authority. There is military power, muscle power, political power, economic power, moral power, charismatic power and psychological power, among other things.
In his autobiography Nikos Kazantzakis tells the story behind his famous book, Zorba the Greek. Zorba is partially fiction, partly history.
Several years ago, I was approached by man who asked me to be his spiritual director. He was in his mid-40s and almost everything about him radiated a certain health.
Sometimes the simple act of naming something can be immensely helpful. Before we can put a name on something we stand more helpless before its effects, not really knowing what's happening to us.
Truth finds us in different ways. Sometimes we learn what something means, not in a classroom but in a hospital.
Not all fear is created equal, at least not religiously. There's a fear that's healthy and good, a sign of maturity and love. There's also a fear that's bad, that blocks maturity and love.

This year's Halloween weekend was a spooky sight, indeed. Walking, especially on sidewalks, was a dangerous endeavor. When lights were disrupted, our only source of trick-or-treating illumination was provided by the gloomy glow of the snow.
Pedestrians were scared off the streets, leaving nothing but the the silhouettes of downed trees full of leaves. Worcester became a graveyard of trees to which nature didn't allot enough time to work their deciduous magic.
But, with the hard work of Physical Plant and a DIY student group, you'd be hard-pressed to find even a gravestone today. What has happened with the gruesome and woody remains of All Hallow's Eve?
Physical Plant has had workers on the ground since the storm. Those first few days, in the words of Mike Dawley, Director of Physical Plant, were about "making safe." That weekend was spent clearing the roads, making paths, and getting rid of the especially offensive branches that threatened further damage. That much was clear, even in the first few hours of the storm.
From the noise on campus, it is hard not to know the trees are being fed into shredders and turned into chips. What you might not know is an arborist was brought on the scene as soon as possible, a real professional to assess the leafy damage done. It is unclear as of now how many trees are going to realize their end because of the storm (only time will tell for many), but a handful had to be amputated immediately, either from their roots or trunks. But where are the tiny chunks that became of them?
It turns out that most of our leaves and environmental rubbish are carted off to Clark's arboretum and tossed in a compost heap. Since none of the trees can leave Worcester, the arboretum compost pile is exactly where our fallen foliage has gone. Unfortunately, the arboretum saw its own amount of damage from the storm.
There, trees that have seen 200 years of life met their end. But, all is not as sad as it appears, for many non-native and invasive trees were taken in the blizzard as well.
Last Tuesday and Wednesday, our campus saw a special spectacle in the mess of branches: a group of students lead by Elliot Altbaum ('14), worked with the grounds people to gather some broken bits of trees and speed up the cleaning process. They labored with so much enthusiasm that the workers were able to focus their attention on the soccer field where our team was hoping to practice. With around 10 students carting these trees around it should have taken hours, but this crack team was so productive they cut their time down considerably. And all from a volunteer team gathered on the spot.
While the campus is almost spotless now, the whole process will be a considerable one. Throughout the seasons, we will find out which trees will make it and which will not. Many were in a process of hibernation in which their sap leaves their branches and runs down to the roots, rendering them brittle and ill-prepared to tend to their gashes. Without a bandage to protect their wounds, only time will tell how many this Halloween killed and how many will need replacing in the spring.

|"All Issues are Women's Issues"
The Independent Women's Forum (IWF) is a politically conservative American non-profit organization focused on economic policy issues of concern to women.[4][5] IWF was founded by activist Rosalie Silberman to promote a "conservative alternative to feminist tenets" following the controversial Supreme Court nomination of Clarence Thomas in 1992.[6] IWF's sister organization is the Independent Women's Voice (IWV), a 501(c)(4) organization.
The group advocates "equity feminism," a term first used by IWF author Christina Hoff Sommers to distinguish "traditional, classically liberal, humanistic feminism" from "gender feminism", which she claims opposes gender roles as well as patriarchy.[7] According to Sommers, the gender feminist view is "the prevailing ideology among contemporary feminist philosophers and leaders"[7] and "thrives on the myth that American women are the oppressed 'second sex.'"[8] Sommers' equity feminism has been described as anti-feminist by critics.[9]
In the 2012 U.S. presidential election, IWV ran an advertisement comparing President Obama to a dishonest boyfriend.[10]

Origin and history[edit]
Founded in 1992 by Rosalie Silberman, Anita K. Blair, and Barbara Olson,[6][11] the IWF grew out of the ad hoc group "Women for Judge Thomas," created to defend Clarence Thomas against allegations of sexual harassment and other improprieties. By 1996 the organization had some 700 dues-paying members who met regularly at luncheons to network and share ideas.[12] Silberman was the IWF's first president; subsequent leaders have included Nancy Pfotenhauer and Anita Blair. The current executive director of the organization is Sabrina Schaeffer.[13] The IWF has been described as "a virtual 'Who's Who' of Washington's Republican establishment."[12][14] In 2006, the organization had 20,337 members and a budget of $1.05 million.[4]
Opposition to other feminist ideas[edit]
The IWF opposes many mainstream feminist positions, describing them as "radical feminism". IWF-affiliated writers have argued that the gender gap in income exists because of women's greater demand for flexibility, fewer hours, and less travel in their careers, rather than because of sexism. In an article for the Dallas Morning News, IWF Vice-President Carrie Lukas attributed gender disparities in income to "women's own choices", writing that women "tend to place a higher priority on flexibility and personal fulfillment than do men, who focus more on pay. Women tend to avoid jobs that require travel or relocation, and they take more time off and spend fewer hours in the office than men do. Men disproportionately take on the most dirty, dangerous and depressing jobs."[15]
Conservative commentators have praised the IWF; Linda Chavez credited Women's Figures: An Illustrated Guide to the Economic Progress of Women in America, a 1999 book published in part by the IWF, with "debunk[ing] much of the feminists' voodoo economics."[16] Writing in Capitalist Magazine, John Stossel cited Michelle Bernard's 2007 book Women's Progress as evidence that "American women have never enjoyed more options or such a high quality of life."[17]
Some writers have asserted that feminist rhetoric is used by the IWF for anti-feminist ends.[18][19] A New York Times editorial described the IWF as "a right-wing public policy group that provides pseudofeminist support for extreme positions that are in fact dangerous to women."[20]
Domestic policy and programs[edit]
United States healthcare policy[edit]
In 2009, IWF produced a political advertisement run on YouTube and in eight states arguing that "300,000 American women with breast cancer might have died" if U.S. healthcare included a government-funded option.[21][22] FactCheck.org labeled the IWF ad false and manipulative of women's fears, finding that the IWF ad relied on "old statistics, faulty logic and false insinuations."[23]
Education policy and campus programs[edit]
The Forum is active in education policy discussions and focuses on a number of different issues both in primary/secondary education and higher education.
Title IX enforcement[edit]
Since shortly after the organization's inception, the IWF has joined with groups like the National Wrestling Coaches Association in opposing the manner in which the United States Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights has enforced Title IX gender equality legislation. The 1972 Title IX law that states: "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance."[24] According to IWF senior fellow Christine Stolba, the law has resulted in a number of negative, unintended consequences.[25] Elaborating on the group's position, Stolba asserts,
The (women's forum) is often accused of opposing Title IX. But we don't oppose Title IX.... What we're opposing is the way the Office for Civil Rights chooses to enforce Title IX. Given their regulations, colleges are enforcing statistical proportionality.... Common sense and poll data suggest that men are more interested in playing sports than women. But there are more female students than male. It becomes a numbers game, where the number of athletes has to be proportional. The easiest way to do that is to cut men's teams.[26]
In support of the group's claims that absent current Title IX enforcement, men are more likely to enroll in collegiate athletic programs than women, the IWF conducted a 1998 survey that examined the percentage of students at all-women's schools participating in athletics compared to the percentage of female students participating in similar programs at undergraduate schools generally. The survey found that female students at co-educational schools are far more likely to be student athletes. Jeremy Rabkin cited the survey in an April 1999 article in the American Spectator, asking, "If 'discrimination' keeps down the proportion of women athletes at co-ed schools, what accounts for overall participation rates that are half of the national women's average at Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Wellesley, and Smith?"[27]
In a January 2012 article remarking on the 40th anniversary of Title IX, IWF executive director Sabrina Schaeffer described her "hope [that] feminists will begin to accept that men and women—no matter how balanced the circumstances—maintain different strengths and preferences. Because what is very clear is that legislation in the name of "gender equality" does not actually make men and women the same."[28]
Advocacy for school choice[edit]
In response to falling test scores in American public elementary, middle, and high schools, particularly among young boys, IWF created its Women For School Choice project. The effort targets in part what the organization describes as the negative results of the Women's Educational Equity Act. According to researcher Krista Kafer, whose report was published by the IWF,
WEEA is a solution without a problem. The program wastes money that would be better spent on actual crises—boys' literacy for example—or returned to taxpayers.... Girls are more engaged and ambitious in school, while boys are more likely to suffer academic and behavioral problems.[29]
The creation of this project was also largely a reaction[30] to the National Organization for Women's vocal opposition to single-sex schools, which decried such arrangements as unacceptable modern examples of segregation.[31]
2006 Duke University lacrosse case[edit]
After rape accusations against Duke University lacrosse players surfaced in March 2006, the IWF was quick to call attention to the fact that the parties involved in the case were receiving much attention in the press, something that would be harmful to their reputations regardless of the ultimate legal outcome. In April 2006, Carrie Lukas of the IWF said,
At Duke, a woman has accused three men of raping her. Two have been indicted. We know the names of the accused; we've seen their pictures; their lives will never be the same.... Perhaps the evidence will show they... committed the heinous crime of rape. If so, they will be and they should be severely punished. Yet the media so quick to sensationalize the accuser's account and condemn the lacrosse players now is revealing facts suggesting that the accused might be innocent of this crime.[32]
Columnist Michael Gaynor, writing for Alan Keyes' organization Renew America, noted IWF's early criticism of the school's and the district attorney's mishandling of the case, saying, "The Independent Women's Forum's Charlotte Allen figured out early that the real scandal was the way the players were mistreated and her posts during April 2006 on the IWF website showed a commendable concern with due process and evidence instead of rushing to an erroneous misjudgment."[33]
Campus programs[edit]
The organization emphasizes traditional family roles and cultural norms as essential for civil society. In particular, IWF encourages young women to embrace what it presents as a healthy attitude towards dating, courtship, and marriage.[34] This emphasis is reflected by high-profile, sometimes controversial[35] work on college campuses where IWF sponsors advertising campaigns and literature distribution to promote its views. One such effort included the running of advertisements with provocative headings such as "The Ten Most Common Feminist Myths."[36] IWF also offers internships and sponsors an annual essay contest open to full-time female undergraduate students.[37]
As a reaction to reports of growing promiscuity on college campuses[38] and the V-Day movement founded by Eve Ensler, IWF created its "Take Back the Date" campus program to "reclaim Valentine's Day from radical feminists on campus who use a day of love and romance to promote vulgar and promiscuous behavior through activities like The Vagina Monologues."[39] Specifically addressing the controversial play, IWF's "Take Back the Date" release states that, "although the play raises money for a good cause, the hyper-sexualized play counteracts the positive contributions of the feminist movement and degrades women."
In an article in The Guardian, Jessica Valenti wrote that the program was merely "[r]evamping outdated notions of femininity and positioning them as cutting edge."[40]
Right to keep and bear arms[edit]
Individuals affiliated with IWF have advocated for the right of members of the public to keep and bear arms. Allison Kasic, director of the Forum's R. Gaull Silberman Center for Collegiate Studies, wrote an article for Townhall.com praising Antonin Scalia's District of Columbia v. Heller decision, in which the Supreme Court of the United States held that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution recognized an individual right to keep and bear arms. Kasic described her enthusiasm for the manner in which the court resolved the case by noting, "as Justice Scalia pointed out in his opinion, 'the American people have considered the handgun to be the quintessential self-defense weapon.' All citizens of D.C. should rejoice at their new found freedom. But for women especially, guns are the ultimate equalizer in self-defense."[41] In January 2012, Anna Rittgers, an IWF senior fellow writing in support of federal legislation that would guarantee interstate reciprocity for concealed handgun permitholders, asserted that this issue is of particular importance to women because,
In many cases, women lack the physical ability to defend themselves against or outrun would-be assailants. Intangible factors that make women vulnerable are heightened when traveling because of a tourist's lack of familiarity with her surroundings and local trends in crime. Taking away a woman's access to effective means of self-defense makes her an even more attractive target.[42]
International programs[edit]
Since its founding, IWF has sponsored numerous conferences, panels, and other programs designed to promote its message to an international audience. These primarily include activities and events discussing or taking place in the countries of Iraq[43] and Afghanistan, and focus on promoting female participation in democracy.[44]
In October 2004, the Feminist Majority Foundation objected to the U.S. Department of State's decision to award part of a grant to IWF.[45] IWF's work in Iraq is in concert with that of the American Islamic Conference and the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, a neo-conservative think tank.[citation needed]
Donors to IWF have included Donors Trust, the John William Pope Foundation, the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, the Scaife Foundations and the Randolph Foundation.[46][47]
Board members[edit]
The board is chaired by businesswoman Heather Higgins with other members Yvonne Boice, Kellyanne Conway (temporary leave of absence), Giovanna Cugnasca, Nan Hayworth, Larry Kudlow, and Adele Malpass.[48] Directors emeritae of the organization include former Second Lady of the United States Lynne V. Cheney, writer Midge Decter, Kimberly O. Dennis, economist Wendy Lee Gramm, Elizabeth Lurie, journalist Kate O'Beirne, Nancy Pfotenhauer, Sally Pipes, Michaelon Wright, Randy Silberman, and Louise V. Oliver.[48]

I describe these organizations below. Like feminists, these women, through their organizations, not only act collectively as women, but also bring a "woman's perspective" to policy issues. Although some scholars have not denied the impact of right-wing movements on feminist goals and activities (Conover & Gray, 1983; Klatch, 1987; Marshall, 1995), others have characterized conservative women as victims of false consciousness, pawns of conservative men or right-wing funders (Dworkin, 1983; Hammer, 2002), or women's auxillar[ies] of the conservative elite" (Kaminer, 1996), thus diminishing the attention and serious consideration appropriate to such a political force."

Forums Lobby MASTER YOUR NIKON CAMERA Nikon D810/D800 series topic #25055
Auto Image Review Erratic in Interval Shooting Mode
davidahn Registered since 10th Apr 2013
Wed 08-May-13 05:02 AM
On my last trip to Italy (got back 2 days ago), I shot a lot of timelapses in interval mode. Still playing with camera settings, but one thing is somewhat puzzling me: after each frame is shot, it automatically shows a thumbnail of the capture, histogram, and data... usually. But it seems that after a while, the auto review sometimes happens, sometimes just a black screen with backlight (screen edges light up), sometimes the backlight doesn't even come on, but then sometimes the auto review works off & on. The shutter does continue to actuate, so I'm not nearly as concerned as I would be.
Is this happening to anyone else? Thought I'd check here before raising a technical support issue with Nikon.

Since 1981, this Beginners Kit has helped many miners with their lab startup. Probably the most important factor of success in prospecting and gold recovery mill operation is the number of assay completed -
At one time, fire assaying was a deep dark secret. Now in this modern world, education can be had by those who want to learn. Many miners have learned to do their own fire assays and Action Mining is the only company in the world to offer complete fire assay kits with instructions!

Searching the industry looking for low cost and effective mining laboratory equipment, we are continually testing new items. Today, the necessary equipment can be purchased for a fraction of the cost of past mining laboratories. Where low cost equipment could not be found, we have manufactured the equipment ourselves. Action Mining's Impact Mill is an example of this, selling for a fraction of the cost of similar items that do the same job.
If you are going into mining or if you are in mining, consider putting in your own lab. A small backyard facility can prevent the loss of a great deal of time and money. We always answer questions on the phone, and will help with setting up your lab. We believe that a miner without a lab is like a hospital without a MRI machine. Neither can really tell what is happening without the proper tools.

Place some room temperature double or triple creme Brie cheese on a nice platter, drizzle with the Sabatino White Truffle Oil, sprinkle with Herbs de Provence, red pepper flakes and dry parsley flakes and serve with your favorite crackers. Easy and very delicious appetizer, which looks beautiful.
It's basically all there in the title. I've tried a few different truffle-flavored oils, and while this one isn't the best I've ever used, it has a strong, vibrant truffle flavor and aroma and is well-priced for the quality. The bottle is very small, but I only use a very small amount of the oil to flavor a dish.

Those of you who've read my blogs in the past know that I have a lot of love for CthulhuTech, the dark sci-fi setting of mecha and Lovecraftian horror. It's a setting like no other, combining bits of anime like Robotech, The Guyver and Neon Genesis Evangelion with traditional horror monsters from the Mythos like the Mi-Go, Great Old Ones (Ol' Cthulhu himself), Shub-Niggurath, Hastur, Nyarlathotep, etc. into one big pile of fun.
So in real life I've been running a tabletop CthulhuTech campaign involving Tagers, humans who have melded with otherdimensional symbionts to create super-powerful creatures who fight the Shadow War against the evil Dhohanoid-controlled Chrysalis Corporation. Last week I tried out a new site for blogging RPGs called Obsidian Portal, and I found it quite handy. If you'd like to take a look at my C-tech game online or follow our adventures you can read about it there. Not sure how much time I'll be able to dedicate to maintaining it, but for now it's a useful tool, especially with the wiki module. If you're interested in the published game itself, you can download a new set of Quick-Start Rules right here. The poker-dice mechanics are unique and quite dramatic.
I'm telling you, along from Rifts this setting would make the most tremendous videogame, hands-down beating any of the settings I've seen in contemporary videogames. Maybe some day a developer will license it and you'll be able to blow up underwater Esoteric Order of Dagon battle mechs while piloting a half-organic Engel. Fingers crossed!

Holyfield is Confident He Can Beat The Klitschko Brothers
By Ryan Burton
BoxingScene.com recently caught up with four-time heavyweight champion Evander "Real Deal" Holyfield. The 49 year old fighter defeated Brian Nielsen this past May in his most recent fight. Holyfied traveled to Nielsen's homeland of Denmark to face the 46 year old. Holyfield praised Nielsen for his chin and was satisfied with his performance.
"Nielsen is a guy who could take shots. In our fight he proved that he could take good shots and eventually I was able to take him out," stated Holyfield.
The Atlanta, Georgia native insists that he will continue fighting until he captures a world title for a fifth time. Since the Klistchko brothers have a stranglehold on the heavyweight titles, Holyfield is hopking to land a fight with either of the brothers. He views both Wladimir and Vitaly Klitschko as equally good fighters.
"Both of them are good fighters. It doesn't make a difference which one I fight. They would both be tough fights but every fighter that I face is a tough fight. The thing is that I can make adjustments. The fighters that they face are young, younger than them, but they don't have a pedigree. They don't have a long amateur career like I did. You can't beat a great fighter because you swing hard and are heavier than them. It takes a lot to beat the very best," Holyfield explained. "You have to fight on the inside. You don't look at what you can't do. You look at what you can do. That is how you win a fight."
Holyfield said that he can still perform at a high level even at 49 years old because he always stays in the gym and takes care of himself. He also said that he isn't going to set a time table for when he will retire. Holyfield points to Bernard Hopkins as a recent example of fighter continuing to have success late in his career.
"Look at Bernard Hopkins. There is a guy who is 46 years old and can still do it. Technology is better. When you apply technology to health you see what you can do. A lot of these guys aren't living like they are supposed to. When I turned 30 they said I was old. Now they don't tell anyone they are old when they are 30.

Choose Cruelty Free

Access the CCF List of accredited companies producing cosmetics, toiletries and household cleaning products that have not been tested on animals. There is also a vegan list for those who only want to purchase vegan products. Make-up, hair care, toothpaste, pet care, men's range, fragrances and more!
Choose Cruelty Free (CCF) is an Australian, independent, non-profit organisation that produces the Choose Cruelty Free List (CCF List), actively campaigns for a ban on animal-tested cosmetics, and promotes a cruelty-free lifestyle. The CCF List helps consumers choose products made by companies that do not test on animals.
It is FREE to be CCF Accredited and added to the CCF List. However, should a company wish to use the CCF Rabbit Logo they enter into a License Agreement and pay an annual license fee to CCF.
Would be fantastic if you could search a product, eg. Lip balm and show brands that supply them.
Great Go-To Great for what it's designed for.

Might as well google individual brands Barely has any products and brands you can check as being cruelty free and the brands it does have are very unknown.

• bp introduced to indicate companies that meet CCF criteria in relation to no animal-testing, but are producing products that may contain animal ingredients (slaughterhouse by-products or insects have been killed)
• Lots of new companies have been accredited and join the CCF List
• Some companies have been removed from the CCF List due to a change of ownership or they are no longer able to meet CCF Accreditation Criteria
