My mom was coming to visit and I wanted my DW to make something special, so this is what she chose. It was loved by all three of us, and I can't wait to have it again! Thanks! Tony
What a beautiful presentation...and it tasted devine. I used walnuts in the crust....didn't toast them and didn't even notice the instruction to toast them until this review...oh well, next time I will. I also added blueberries with the strawberries and it looked and tasted wonderful. I think my favorite part is that this dessert is not too sweet because I am not a big sweet eater and make desserts mainly for my family to enjoy. This is one I enjoyed immensely! Thank you NcMystery, for posting!
Made this with raw almonds and in little individual tortes... I mean I couldn't stop eating the crust dough as I was pressing it into the pan or TRYING to keep "accidentally" getting the filling on my fingers! SO delicious and everyone just loved it! Thank you!

This review is from: MSI 17.3" GE70 Apache Pro-061 Intel Core i5 4200H (2.80 GHz) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M 8 GB Memory 1 TB HDD Windows 8.1 64-Bit Gaming Laptop
Pros: For your money to power factor, this laptop is great. For gaming there really very little difference for i5 to i7 right now, and I don't see it being required anytime soon. The 8gb is more than enough for now. The 860M is a good video card. Very light. Solid structure for a low cost laptop.
Cons: HEAT! I have had many gaming laptops, and I know that heat is a common issue, but this is is crazy. The turbo fan has to be on for anything other than simple usage. Even when on, high end games turn this thing to an oven. Cooling pad is required, else your going to run into shut downs and a lessened machine lifespan. I can't imagine how this thing will be after it ages when it's cooling system is not 100%.
When first using out of the box your losing over 30% of your memory. The bloat ware is not that bad, but what it has is a hog. After removing the regular hogs (the keyboard light up takes up a stupid amount of memory, I know it does other stuff too, but really...) , I have it down to 15% to 18% usage with nothing else open. Anyone not knowing how to, or that it's a good idea to do this, may not get 100% out of their machine.
The track pad is one of the worse I have even seen. I normally use a mouse anyways, but still, they could have done somewhat better.
Other Thoughts: With a good cooling pad, and a mouse, this laptop is a great deal. (you can spend twice as much for what really amounts to a small increase in power)
A tip; you can always upgrade to a SSD or up the ram in the future if need be. Chances are the price will come down on both over time. (though opening it up does void the warranty) Both are easy to do upgrades.
If MSI is reading this, you may want to look at better heat solutions in the future. This is marketed as a gaming laptop. Even low end games cause this thing to heat up quickly. Cooling pads really shouldn't be required.
Over all however, this laptop is right in the sweet spot for cost to power. Unless you ready to spend a bunch more money to get a notable effect, get this. (and a cooling pad)

Lauren: This is Natalie Calm, age 19, Type 1 Diabetic and just had her left hip replaced. I'm going to be showing her the ins and outs of TED Hose, why do you use them and how to put them on so that when she goes back home, she can increase the circulation in her legs and decrease the edema that she will experience.
Natalie: Hello.
Lauren: Hi Natalie, I'm Lauren. I'm going to be your nurse and I'm going to teach you the ins and outs of TED Hose.
Natalie: Perfect.
Lauren: What I want you to do is follow what I'm doing and I'm going to have you put them on to your hand. Okay?
Natalie: Okay.
Lauren: This will go on your legs and go up to your knees to decrease your risk of clots due to the surgery and immobility of surgery and also the edema that you will experience because you're Type 1 Diabetic. We want to put our hands inside and find this little area of the square, the reinforced square, on your TED Hose. Grab that and then pull your TED Hose inside out. Now that is going to go on your heel. Then put them on, enforcing, get to your heel. And then pull these back up over to your heel. Now the main thing to remember when putting on a TED Hose is that they will be a little tight and a little uncomfortable but you need to get them smooth. You don't want any wrinkles within the TED Hose. Then pull them up to the knee. Now see, smooth. This will increase your circulation from your feet up, decrease the risk of clot and also decrease your edema.
Natalie: Good to know.

- Compression Hose controls fluid buildup in legs
Very well made, durable and easily laundered. (Don't use bleach! It destroys the elastic!) Havier denier than sheer, plain support hose. Regular support hose will not remedy the swelling when its on the scale I had suffered. I've been battling fluid retention in my legs (from the knee down) for quite a long time. I'd tried the no salt in food and keeping feet up thing, but it wasn't working. It got so bad, my legs began to "weep" the fluid through the skin. Waking at night to wet sheets as if I poured a pan of water on the linens! My legs developed blister like ulcers, too. With the help of a high dose cortizone cream, the ulcers healed, but the swelling wouldn't go down----that is, until I purchased these stockings! I wear them daily (without fail) and remove them at night. Thank you, TEDS, for making these Godsend stockings.

- I hoped they would last longer
I bought 4 pair of knee highs and pair of thigh high open toe TED hose about 1 month ago. I thought they would be more durable than they are now. I wear them all day. They seem to be snagging at the front where my jeans are at my ankles. I don't know if I would buy them again.

- My wife had to remove stocking and never put it back on.
Measurement was correct according to your guidelines.A great deal of difficulty getting the stocking on(only for one leg) and it created sich a deep mark on the leg with so much discomfort she had to,with difficulty, remove it and would not wear it again.Her legs are not fat and the measurement was to your scale.Itvwas a waste.

- Avoided the usual blood clots.
After my joint replacement surgery, I was prescribed by the doctor to wear this on my leg. The compression is good and I feel that my blood circulation is normal. I was advised to wear it for 6 months, however I was allowed to remove it once a day so that I can take a bath. It is also washable which is a plus factor.

- Don't expect customer service to respond.
I ordered almost $100 dollars of compression stockings which did not fit; that's my bad because I've never ordered them before and guessed at the size. I emailed Customer Service to ask if I could exchange them, and no one bothered to respond to my inquiry. First and last time I order from this company. I hope Goodwill gives them to someone who can use them! (I gave them away since I had no use for them: bummer!)

Buy ration on UFL not on its protein
Published 30/01/2013 | 06:00
We need a good spring. Silage stocks will be running very tight as we move through February. The critical thing is not to run out, but to have at least 10 days' worth of silage in the pit by April 1.
The other issue is that silage quality is on the floor. Several silage samples tested out in the low sixties for dry matter digestibility (DMD). To complicate matters further, the protein content of many of these samples is as low as 8pc.
So, you can see why we need a good spring. However, that's outside our control. What is within our control is how we manage the remaining silage stocks and how we feed the calved cow this spring. How she performs in early lactation will determine her milk yield throughout 2013.
Back to the silage stocks for the moment. It will be February 1 on Friday, and it's time to measure that pit again or count the remaining number of bales. Budget the silage stocks to ensure you still have some silage left on the first of April.
If you farm on some of the wetter soils in the country, then you know that I am gambling a small bit with that last piece of advice. Cows have started to calve and will be calving in significant numbers in the next few weeks. These cows should have a body condition score (BCS) of 3.25. That's a cow in good working order, not over-fleshed.
How should these cows be fed post calving?
As can be seen from the table, poor quality silage with a DMD of 65 or less will require additional supplementation. For every five-point drop in DMD, meal feeding rates must be increased by 1-1.5kg. So if you are on poor quality silage, 2-2.5kg of extra ration with be required this spring. That's expensive but it's necessary. If cows milk poorly in the spring, they will milk poorly all year. This will have a serious impact on farm receipts with good quality ration up to €320/t.
Concentrate feeding should be built up slowly after calving. The most important ingredient in the ration is energy. It's the most limiting factor in the overall diet. The more ration you have to feed, the more important the quality becomes. This spring you should ensure that the energy density in the ration is between 0.92 and 0.95 UFL on a fresh weight basis. Inferior ingredients such as sunflower and wheat feed (pollard) should be well down the list of ingredients. They should certainly not appear in the top four.
Usually when I write about rations, I get into hot water and offend someone and they are on the phone or emailing.
It is up to you to keep an eye on the quality of the rations you are buying.
Don't buy on protein per cent. Buy on the UFL value and check on the list of ingredients. They will be in descending order, with the ingredients with the highest inclusion rate at the top of the list.
As regards protein content, if you are feeding indoors fulltime on silage then cows will need 18-20pc protein in the diet. If you are one of the lucky ones who has cows out by day then 16-18pc will do. However, when they go to grass full time, 12-14pc protein is plenty.
What about nitrogen applications? Farms have a good green colour with an amount of young green shoots. This type of material is ideal for nitrogen uptake. We are almost at February 1. A total of 40 units of nitrogen per acre should be spread on dry ground pretty quickly. Watch the forecast and if heavy rain is forecast keep it in the bag. We should try to grow as much grass as possible this spring. Applying nitrogen is the first step.

International Sociology
'Professor Elbe has provided an important resource in this well-written and documented book É In it, he explores the evolution of human health security, its medicalization, and its likely impact É Through a series of case examples, and references to the work of several of the best thinkers in this field, he develops his argument about the seemingly inexorable march of medicalization as the means of achieving human health security, and points to a future that is likely to be dominated by the practice of technical medical approaches and pharmaceutical interventions.'
Sarita Bhalotra, Brandeis University
'Every now and then a new book comes along that challenges us to think more deeply about an issue, to consider more carefully the choices we make and their impact. This book is just such a book. With this new work on the medicalization of security, Elbe has once again produced an insightful piece of work that will no doubt prove a reference point for policy-makers, academics, practitioners, and students, for years to come.'
Adam Kamradt-Scott, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine
'This is an excellent book which provides an authoritative introduction to the subject coupled with a challenging and original new line of thinking about the problem of securing global health.'
Colin McInnes, Aberystwyth University
'Stefan Elbe has written a lucid and learned examination of the debate surrounding the securitization of health in the modern era. A fascinating contribution to the increasingly salient discourse on health and global governance.'

The standard tools to probe gene function were either cumbersome, such as knockout mice, or poorly informative, such as gene expression.
RNAi was described in 1998 by Andy Fire and Craig Mello at the Carnegie Institute in Washington, D.C. In plants and lower organisms such as the nematode, RNAi — a process in which double-stranded RNA fragments target and eliminate specific messenger RNA molecules — probably helps defend against viruses and other foreign molecules.
Two years ago, a paper in Nature dramatically showed that RNAi also worked in mammalian cells (Elbashir, S.M. et al. Nature 411, 494-498: 2001). The role of this process in humans remains vague, but, regardless, it possesses immense experimental — and therapeutic — potential.
Fast, easy, and inexpensive — that's what an experimentalist likes to hear. "To my mind, the most important new advance in biology is the RNAi approach," says Tom Cech, president of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Nobel laureate for the discovery of RNA enzymes. "RNAi is vastly more powerful than anything we have had. Even people who don't know how to spell RNA can use this successfully in diverse biological systems."
RNAi is already making an impact. Genomewide knockdowns have been carried out in organisms including nematodes. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), which silence genes in mammalian cells, are now being designed against as many genes as possible.
One promising approach is to spot cells expressing defined genes on microchips for the analysis (see Ziauddin, J. and Sabatini, D.M. Nature 411, 107-110: 2001). "The hard part is not printing the chips or doing the experiment," says David Sabatini, Whitehead Institute Center for Genome Research Fellow and co-founder of Akceli. "It's picking the right sequences."
Each siRNA contains 21 nucleotides, but some sequences stick better than others. For once, researchers welcome the intense competition. "Hopefully, we will cover different genes, and get to them all more quickly," Sabatini says.
Early adopters of RNAi sound a cautionary note. "We've been using it for about five years," says Geoffrey Duyk, president of R&D at Exelixis. "The dirty little secret of RNAi is that you are knocking down messenger RNA to knock out protein. Because proteins have different turnover rates, you have to have a good way to measure protein level and activity."
Even skittish venture capitalists are falling for RNAi and its potential therapeutic value, with backing for companies such as Cenix and Alnylam Pharmaceuticals.
"The great thing about recombinant DNA and monoclonal antibodies was that they gave actual drugs right from the start," says Christoph Westphal, of Polaris Venture Partners. "With genomics, it just wasn't clear when it would develop a drug."
Firms such as Polaris, which is funding Alnylam, hope RNAi can fuel the next wave of biotech breakthroughs. "If we are very fortunate, siRNAs will make good drugs," Westphal says. "If we are unlucky, we still have a whole natural cellular machinery that is open to small-molecule development."

Nags Head boasts a plethora of natural wonders. From an ecologically unique maritime forest to breathtaking coastal dunes, the dynamics of the area corroborate the sentiment Thomas Nixon expressed in his 1964 classic. Indeed, as early as the 1830s, merchants and planters from the Albemarle region of North Carolina and Southside Virginia brought their families to Nags Head via boat to exchange the oppressive inland summer heat for cool ocean breezes. In this striking photographic collection, Downing illustrates why this scenic spot on the Outer Banks has been beloved for generations by sun-seekers, sightseers and surfers alike.
101 Glimpses of the Old Man of the Mountainby Bruce D. Heald David C. Nielsen Governor John Lynch
The Old Man of the Mountain once cast a steady gaze upon the slopes of Franconia Notch. Its profile drew writers, explorers and presidents, delighting all who glimpsed its features. But when it collapsed on May 3, 2003, the Old Man seemed forever lost. Veteran historian Bruce Heald and the last caretaker of the Old Man, David Nielsen, have gathered 101 images from the profile's long history. These one-of-a-kind photos from Nielsen's private collection depict four decades of preservation work, seismic testing by national experts, visits from dignitaries and rare memorabilia. With Nielsen's personal reflections on his life's work and Heald's notes on the history of the Old Man, this volume recaptures the wonder of New Hampshire's great stone face.
101 Glimpses of the South Forkby Richard Panchyk Steve Levy
Long Island's South Fork--famous for the Hamptons--is now one of the hottest summer destinations for the wealthiest and most famous Americans. But it wasn't always so....When European explorers arrived on Long Island's southeastern-most shores in the seventeenth century, they shared the land with the Montauket and Shinnecock Indians. The South Fork remained relatively rural until the railroad arrived in the 1870s. In this pictorial history, Richard Panchyk surveys how dramatically the landscape has changed, from the famous Montauk Lighthouse and iconic windmills to the sprawling mansions and opulent hotels, and highlights some of the notable figures who graced these shores, including New York politicians and a plethora of artists and celebrities. Showcasing the South Fork's famous faces and places, Panchyk reveals this coastal community's bygone era.

I love the way the paper was so super durable, and that the glue was so sticky. I especially like the way if I made a mistake while fastening the sticker, that I could fix it with out ruining the label. What is so awesome is that I got my product in three days. I will definitely be ordering more labels, my organization hosts a lot of parties and conferences, and the personal water bottles are such a professional touch. The finishing look appears expensive but the price is sooo super reasonable.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

November 9, 2009
Members of the Hamilton College Junior Year in France recently went to the Sonja Helle Ice Rink at Bercy Stadium in Paris to cheer on Kyle Roulston '09, the newest member of the Paris hockey team, Les Français Volants. With the help of Norm Bazin, Hamilton's men's ice hockey coach, Roulston joined a team that travelled to Europe this past summer looking to place North Americans in the European hockey system.

U.S. should make pot legal and tax it
Columnist Ruth Marcus makes the common mistake of assuming that marijuana prohibition deters use. If the goal of marijuana prohibition is to subsidize violent drug cartels, prohibition is a grand success. The drug war distorts supply-and-demand dynamics so that big money grows on little trees. If the goal is to deter use, marijuana prohibition is a catastrophic failure. The United States has double the rate of marijuana use as the Netherlands, where marijuana is legal.
The criminalization of Americans who prefer marijuana to martinis has no basis in science. The war on marijuana consumers is a failed cultural inquisition, not an evidence-based public health campaign. Not just in Colorado but throughout the nation, it's time to stop the pointless arrests and instead tax legal marijuana.

I prefer to design simple patterns that are (relatively) easy to knit. It might be redundant to say so, but I design socks that I'd want to knit. I want a pattern that looks fantastic, but isn't ridiculously complicated. I want it to be easy, without being boring. I want to challenge myself a little, but not make things more difficult than they need to be.
I love cables, twisted stitches, and lace. But not all at the same time! I try to design multiple sizes for each pattern since legs and feet come in all sizes. I also expect knitters to take liberties with the instructions and be able to substitute their favorite heel, toe or cuff if they so choose. I'm also pleased when a pattern can be converted into toe up without too much effort, although not all stitch patterns lend themselves to this.
I do have every pattern test knitted to ensure accuracy and to get different perspectives on each pattern. However, I am human, so mistakes might happen. If they do, I'll get them fixed right away.
The perfect lightweight shawlette for a summer's picnic or that special evening out. Pair it up with your favorite cotton dress for a casual date or wear it to a summer wedding. This shawl is delicately lacy and sturdy at the same time. The lace dayflower motif forms a field of flowers across the lower edge of the shawl. A brief shower of rain drops is scattered across the top of the shawl, ready to nourish the flowers below.
This pattern is written for both fingering and lace weight yarns. In addition to charts and written instructions, there is a section of guidelines for customizing the size of the shawl.
Basic formulas are provided for adding lace repeats and adjusting the short row instructions for different stitch counts. These instructions are guidelines only and will change the yardage requirements.
17 stitches = 4 inches in lace

When released from rest the mass m takes 2.00 seconds to fall 3.00 meters. The coefficient of kinetic friction between M and the incline plane is u=.500. What is M? Let m=3.00Kg. m is connected as shown.
I don't have the image to attach but the angle of the incline is 30. The mass m is hanging off the incline and mass M is sliding up the plane. How do I find M?
