The chairman of Cliffs, Australia's fourth biggest iron ore miner, says it is not interested in pursuing opportunities in higher-risk areas such as Africa, saying "we are just not built for that".
Addressing the Diggers & Dealers forum this morning, US-based Joe Carraba also spoke of an increasingly challenging world to operate in, with rising regulatory risk, including in Australia, and pressures on containing costs.
But Mr Carraba also said that despite the global economic uncertainty Cliffs expected China to continue to underwrite demand for steel making commodities such as iron ore.
He said the economic volatility would deter some companies from approving new projects while the inflationary cost pressures and approvals and execution delays would further hamper the emergence of new iron ore supplies.
Cliffs, through its WA subsidiary Portman, produces about 11.5 million tonnes of iron ore a year.
Mr Carraba said finding more ore across its Yilgarn operations was challenging but Cliffs had managed to retain its resource base despite more than doubling iron ore production since the Portman takeover in 2006.
In an upbeat comment on Australia's inflationary environment, which continues to cause havoc with many resources developments, Mr Carraba said: "There certainly is inflation here, much more than in the US and Canada (where Cliffs also has mines)."
"But I would be happy to face more inflation in those two parts of the world if we had the same (economic) growth as we have in Australia."

Designing an REST api for your projects is difficult enough, implementing the api should be simple.
Building a REST api is more then serialisation to JSON with Dancer2::Serializer::JSON or doing CRUD with Dancer2::Plugin::REST (which in so not RESTful, unlike it claims in the docs).
Using the Dancer2::Plugin::HTTP family of modules will help to implement your API design fully RFC compliant

Chipper Shredder
Chipper Jones season-long flirtation with the most hallowed of numbers in a sport full of them that would be a batting average of .400, a figure rounder and more solid than even the ball itself should make a nice side note as the Marlins cream the visiting Braves.
Seriously, can the Braves win a road game? A few days before the All-Star break, the Braves had lost 23 of their previous 31 away from Turner Field, and were third in the National League in runs scored at home while last in runs scored on the road. The team that went to the playoffs every season between 1991 and 2005 has now gone a couple of years without a postseason appearance which is a bit like Gene Simmons not getting laid for an entire weekend and is showing few signs of suddenly joining the top-heavy NL chase.
Still, its nice to see that a fellow not named Barry Bonds (or named in a roids bust subpoena) can at age 36 enjoy a career year. Mark Teixeira notwithstanding, Jones is the only bat in the Braves lineup who should concern Floridas mishmash of a pitching staff. Let him go 2-for-3, 3-for-5 hell, get the Marlins on SportsCenter by serving him 4-for-4, inching that average up closer to the big dot-four-oh-oh. Then watch the Marlins trounce the Braves anyway on Tuesday at 7:10 p.m. at Dolphin Stadium (2269 NW 199th St., Miami). Tickets start at $9. Visit florida.marlins.mlb.com, or call 954-523-3309.

Right, so you have a future event that you are planning on looking fabulous for and feeling confident and you know that action must be taken NOW in order to achieve your weight-loss goals. You are motivated and ready to lose weight fast. Current scientific thought is moving towards making gradual, small steps towards changing eating and lifestyle habits to promote healthy weight loss, on the grounds that slow steps will become long term healthy habits and fad diets are not maintainable and ultimately, can even lead to weight gain. Read on to find out how you can makes easy changes to lose weight.
Lose weight without dieting, Really?
A 5 year study by Neumark-Sztainer on adolescents and dieting assessed Body Mass Index (BMI) changes, and discovered that dieting predicted increased binge eating and decreased physical activity in these young people. The study concluded that dieting in adolescence could well lead to weight gain due to the early adoption of patterns of behaviour that are detrimental to weight management and ultimately lead to weight gain.
A fascinating study carried out on over 2,000 twins from Finland aimed to determine whether weight gain is actually caused by a genetic predisposition rather than dieting, hence the twins. The twins were assessed at age 16, 17, 18 and 25 years and number of diets they had undertaken at 25 years old. It was concluded that the number of diets accelerated weight gain and a dieting twin was almost 2 to 3 times more likely to become overweight than the non-dieting twin proving that dieting actually increases the likelihood of weight gain.
According to a 2006 study by Haines and Neumark-Sztainer dieting is also associated with binge eating, food preoccupation, eating when not hungry and obesity. More worryingly, a 1999 study linked dieting with eating disorders in adolescents.
Why don't diets help you lose weight?
The exact mechanism behind this phenomenon is not entirely understood but it is thought that staying really well hydrated can lower the amount of calories consumed by decreasing hunger and cravings. Water increases the metabolic rate. One 2003 study showed that drinking 500 mls of water actually increased the basal metabolic rate by 30 %. This effect was seen within 10 minutes of drinking the water and reached peak effect after 30 to 40 minutes. Therefore, if you drink 500 mls of water a day this would add up to a 400 kJ energy expenditure.
How much water do I have to drink to lose weight?
Do White Carbs really lead to Weight Gain?
Research studies have shown that there is a strong link between eating starches and refrained grains and weight gain. White carbohydrates that should be avoided include breakfast cereals (okay so these are not strictly white, but think Rice Krispies) pasta, bread, chips, rice, white flour (and everything made from it such as donuts, biscuits and pastries), sweeteners and white pizza base.
By simply swapping refined carbohydrate products to whole grain you will reap double the benefits. You will be cutting out the carbs that lead to weight gain and on top of that one medical study has shown that whole grains actually aid weight loss. In this 2008 study, participants who ate whole grain products lost a significantly greater amount of weight, especially around the waist (belly fat) compared to the control group who consumed an equal intake of calories but NO whole grain products.
Swap your white bread for whole grain, same goes for your flour and pasta and wait for the results!
Do you Really need to Exercise?
Half an hour of exercise burns around 300 to 400 calories. To all your exercise add a little >resistance training or weight training. Whilst brisk walking or jogging, for example, carry a couple of light dumbbells that suit your current weight and strength and swing your arms back and forth in rhythm. Any resistance will help you build muscle and lose weight .
A 2012 study demonstrated that inactive adults will lose around 3 % to 8 % of muscle loss every 10 years. Such loss of muscle is associated with a lower metabolic rate and the accumulation of fat, which is harder to lose. After only 10 weeks of resistance training, 1.8 kg was lost in fat weight and the resting metabolic rate was higher by 7 %.
Why is Coffee linked with Weight Loss?
Caffeine, the main ingredient in coffee, is known to help release fat from the fat cells and also to increase your resting metabolic rate. Coffee also increases levels of the hormone Adrenaline which travels to the fat tissues and breaks them down for energy. Another ingredient in coffee, Chlorogenic acid, has been shown in medical research slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Way back in 1982 a medical study on animals looked at the effect of caffeine intake in relation to a reduction in body fat with exercise. Two groups of rats both swam for 90 minutes 5 days a week, one group took a dose of caffeine 45 minutes before the exercise. After 9 weeks the caffeine group had a 22 % of reduction in body weight and 25 % reduction in fat cell size. The study concluded that fat loss is increased with aerobic exercise when caffeine is taken beforehand.
Does Sex Really count as Exercise?
Current medical thinking is moving much more towards the idea that short bursts of high intensity exercise are more effective than 30 to 40 minutes of jogging, for example. This makes sex the ideal workout. Add to that the fat burning benefits and it's a win-win situation. On average sex uses around 150 to 250 calories for every half hour of action. Even better, for a woman on top sex burn more calories (around 300) and if you're both standing 600 calories each. Even the plain old missionary burns around 250 calories every 10 minutes. On top of that sex is a great stress reliever and stress is linked to weight gain. So, everybody feel the love, release those feel good endorphins and get sexy with the one you love.
What is the ideal amount of sleep to help you lose weight?
Too little sleep (5 – 6 hours) has been shown to affect concentration as your basal metabolic rate goes into energy conservation mode and the brain compensates by craving higher calorie foods. On the other hand, over sleeping (over 9 hours) also appears to lead to weight gain. In a medical study those that slept more than 9 hours a night increased their risk of becoming obese by 21% and those that slept less than 7 hours a night by 27% .
Questions and Answers
There is nothing here about diets. Is it possible to lose weight within a week without dieting?
Is it true that eating slowly helps weight loss?
Eating slowly helps with mindful eating whereby you become much more aware of how much you eat and the flavors of the food. Mindful eating has been described as 'eating with intention and attention.' Through this practice you can become more aware of any underlying emotional issues that may trigger binge eating, distracted eating and cravings.
In addition, however, a 2008 medical study examined the impact of slow and fast eating rates in 30 healthy women. This study concluded that calorie intake was indeed less when a meal was eaten more slowly, furthermore feelings of fullness after the meal were increased. So yes, slow down and enjoy every bite.

Why didn't Avraham bless Yitzchak?
Why was Yitzchak unaware of whom he was actually blessing?
Neither Yaakov nor Moshe required savory dishes before offering their respective blessings.Why did Yitzchak require a savory dish before blessing his son?
Yitzchak, who dined on Esavs game, loved him while Rivkah loved Yaakov.
— Bereishis 25:28
And it was as Yitzchak aged and his eyes grew too weak to see that he summoned his older son Esav and said "My son" and he [Esav] responded "I am here." … "go out in the field and trap me some game and make me a flavorful dish the way I love it and bring it to me to eat, so that my soul will bless you before I die."
— Bereishis 27:1,3-4
And Elokim said "the earth should issue forth flora; seedbearing grasses and trees that are fruits that produce seed infused fruits along species lines upon the earth." and it (almost) happened. The earth issued forth flora, plants bearing their seedbearing own species and trees [that are wooden] producing seed infused fruits …
— Bereishis 1:11-12
and trees that are fruits [The Divine Creative Will was] that the taste of the tree should be identical to the taste of the fruit. However, it [the earth was insubordinate and] did not do so but "the earth issued … trees [that are wooden] producing seed infused fruits," but the trees themselves were not fruit. Therefore, when man was cursed because of his Original Sin, it [the earth] too was punished for its sin (and was cursed.)
— Rashi Ibid from Bereishis Rabbah 5:9
HaShem Elokim said to Adam "Because you hearkened to your wife's voice and ate of the Tree regarding which I specifically commanded you 'Do not eat from it' the earth will be cursed on account of you. All the days of your life you will eat of it [the earth's produce] with sorrow. It will sprout thorns and thistles for you … "
— Bereishis 3:17,18
HaShem Elokim commanded the man saying: "Eat from all the trees of the garden. And from the Tree of Knowledge /Union of Good and Evil do not eat from it. For on the day that you it from it you will definitely die."
— Bereishis 2:16,17
The woman saw that the Tree was good to eat, desirable to the eyes and attractive as a means to gain intelligence. She took from its fruits and ate and also gave some to her husband with her — and he ate.
— Bereishis 3:6
… but you shall not sever it; for man is a tree of the field
— Devarim 20:19
The Biskovitzer poses several pointed questions about the brachos-blessings; that Yitzchak bestowed on Yaakov, while under the impression that he was Esav:
Why, in fact, did Yitzchak deliver his brachos erroneously and unconsciously? Why was Yaakov's worthiness for benediction concealed from Yitzchak, the conduit of blessing? Even with his physical vision impairment and the willful blindness caused by his love for his eldest son, as a prophet, Yitzchak could easily have been informed by HaShem that Yaakov is the son deserving of blessing.
We find two other great figures in TeNaK"h who bestowed brachos; Yaakov — first on his grandchildren Ephraim and Menashe — and then later, on his deathbed, on his sons. Immediately preceding his death Moshe blessed the Tribes of Israel as well. Yet neither Yaakov nor Moshe requested mataamim-a flavorful dish; in order to elicit their brachos; so why did Yitzchok?
In order to appreciate the Biskovitzer's approach to resolving these questions we must first examine how some of the great Torah thinkers understood the roots of blessing and curse.
The Original Sin of the first human beings was not merely the first in a long unbroken chain of transgression on the part of humanity; it was qualitatively different from almost all subsequent sins. The magihah-writer of the annotations; in Nefesh haChaim explains that while the original humans were endowed with bechirah chofshis-free will; there was still a paradigm-shifting difference between their bechirah chofshis and ours.

Anansi Boys is loosely related to American Gods, but each book stands alone and tells an independent story. The main connection is that Anansi is one of the gods we meet in American Gods, often referred to as Mr. Nancy.
Anansi himself doesn't really show up in Anansi Boys all that much, but he's referred to a great deal and several stories are told about him. Our main character is Charlie, Anansi's son, who is quite ordinary, shy, and easily intimidated. At the beginning of the book, we read about Charlie's childhood and the things his father Anansi did to embarrass him. Before long, we catch up to Charlie as he's living his adult life, which is quite an ordinary life. Then, of course, something happens, and Charlie's life starts to get pretty strange and not very pleasant.
Charlie was a funny and interesting character. He starts off kind of spineless, and I was afraid he would get annoying, but he slowly started to get more assertive. The story was interesting. Between the blatant foreshadowing and the hints, I can't say anything about the story was terribly surprising, but it held my interest. Toward the end, I thought some things happened that stretched the boundaries of credibility, even considering the subject matter. I was really enjoying the book up to a point, but I started feeling a little less enthusiastic by the end.
This had a very different tone than American Gods. I enjoyed both books, but for different reasons. By comparison, I thought American Gods was darker, meatier, and more serious. Anansi Boys was lighter, hilariously funny at times, and sometimes downright silly. I couldn't really say which one I liked best. During the first half of this book, I would have said I liked Anansi Boys better. Now that I've finished it, I'm leaning toward American Gods.
I registered a book at BookCrossing.com!
Wonderful follow up novel for [American Gods].
...Anansi Boys is a fast and very entertaining read. I wasn't sure if this book would work for me but despite the lighter tone of the novel, it is a complex piece of writing. Gaiman juggles the characters and their individual stories expertly and finds a good balance between the comical and darker parts of the stories. The tone of the novel makes it easy to read, without making the story seem simple. Gaiman delivers his tale as confidently as Spider must be feeling when he bends the world to his will. It is perhaps not quite the book readers who loved American Gods were hoping for. He simply takes his writing in an entirely different direction. It is a very well written novel though, one that certainly encourages me to read more of his work.
Full Random Comments review
I say this with the upmost respect, Neil Gaiman is quite possibly the greatest story teller of our generation. Not necessarily the greatest author, but reading his books are like sitting around a campfire. They are so fantastical. Anansi Boys may be my favorite so far. The tone and pacing were perfect. I flew through this book on the back of a spider.
I would like to add that I both read and listened to this book. The narrator was awesome and really brought the characters to life.
Gaiman kutoo tapansa mukaan sujuvan ja houkuttelevan kertomuksen, joka ammentaa tarinoiden ja myyttien maailmasta. Sujuvan lukukokemuksen viimeistelee onnistunut suomennos.
Gaimaniin mieltyneille Hämähäkkijumala on puolipakollinen kirjahyllyn täyte ja kevytfantasiaa hakeville ihan yhtä hyvä tutustumiskirja kuin mikä tahansa varhaisempi romaani. Vaikka kirjan juoni ei juuri yllätäkään, Gaiman esittelee tarinankertojan lahjaansa: kykyä tehdä mahdottomasta todenmakuista.
And Charlie, who has become a successful singer and fathered a son, has come to terms with the powers and responsibilities of ''a boy who was half a god," having learned what Gaiman knows better, and communicates more forcefully, than any other contemporary writer: Stories and poems, songs and myths, represent us, sustain and complete us, and survive us, while also ensuring that all that's best in us survives with them.
The focus on Anansi and tricksters, I think, goes a long way towards explaining the tone of this novel. It really feels more like some of the established "funny" sci-fi/fantasy authors (like Gaiman's Good Omens co-author Terry Pratchett) than "classic" Neil.
The problem in "Anansi Boys" is the type of fantasy Gaiman has chosen. The tales of Anansi outwitting his foes leave you feeling you've eaten something heavy and sugary. There's an Uncle Remus folksiness to the stories that sends the airy blitheness of the farce plummeting down to earth.
There is also, I regret to say, the warm hand of instruction lying uneasily on this tale. Charlie works through his ineffectualness and his family issues to find happiness, contentment and - ugh - acceptance. It leaves you with the uncomfortable feeling that for Gaiman, farce by itself would simply have been too frivolous, that he feels the need to impart a lesson.
Anansi Boys contains a couple of traditional-style Anansi fables, and the book itself takes a similar ambling but wry, pointed tone; like any good Anansi story, it's about cleverness, appetite, and comeuppance, and it's funny in a smart, inclusive way. And like any good Gaiman book, it's about the places where the normal world and a fantastic one intersect, and all the insightful things they have to say about each other.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0060515198, Mass Market Paperback)
Fat Charlie Nancy's normal life ended the moment his father dropped dead on a Florida karaoke stage. Charlie didn't know his dad was a god. And he never knew he had a brother.
Now brother Spider's on his doorstep—about to make Fat Charlie's life more interesting . . . and a lot more dangerous.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:12:34 -0400)
One of fiction's most audaciously original talents, Neil Gaiman now gives us a mythology for a modern age -- complete with dark prophecy, family dysfunction, mystical deceptions, and killer birds. Not to mention a lime. Anansi Boys God is dead. Meet the kids. When Fat Charlie's dad named something, it stuck. Like calling Fat Charlie "Fat Charlie." Even now, twenty years later, Charlie Nancy can't shake that name, one of the many embarrassing "gifts" his father bestowed -- before he dropped dead on a karaoke stage and ruined Fat Charlie's life. Mr. Nancy left Fat Charlie things. Things like the tall, good-looking stranger who appears on Charlie's doorstep, who appears to be the brother he never knew. A brother as different from Charlie as night is from day, a brother who's going to show Charlie how to lighten up and have a little fun ... just like Dear Old Dad. And all of a sudden, life starts getting very interesting for Fat Charlie. Because, you see, Charlie's dad wasn't just any dad. He was Anansi, a trickster god, the spider-god. Anansi is the spirit of rebellion, able to overturn the social order, create wealth out of thin air, and baffle the devil. Some said he could cheat even Death himself. Returning to the territory he so brilliantly explored in his masterful New York Times bestseller, American Gods, the incomparable Neil Gaiman offers up a work of dazzling ingenuity, a kaleidoscopic journey deep into myth that is at once startling, terrifying, exhilarating, and fiercely funny -- a true wonder of a novel that confirms Stephen King's glowing assessment of the author as "a treasure-house of story, and we are lucky to have him."… (more)

A federal case alleging Animal Welfare law violations by a Shippensburg-area couple appears to be moving forward in U.S. Middle District Court.
Jury selection in the trial for Floyd and Susan Martin, who are charged with falsifying records at their former Chestnut Grove Kennel, in Southampton Twp., is set to begin June 4.
Attorneys for the Martins, who have pleaded not guilty, had been granted continuations since charges were filed last year. Now, the case will go before Judge John E. Jones III.
The Martins each are charged with felony counts of fraud and conspiracy stemming from a probe that prosecutors said showed the couple deliberately bought more dogs than legally permitted through their kennel licensed by the USDA.

A social hostel with a nice swimming pool. And with awesome free activities - yoga, cooking classes, salsa lessons.

One of the best hostels ie stayed at. The pool belongs in a 5 star hotel

I finally get why people stay in towns just for the hostels. This is a lovely friendly well kept place with large airy rooms, a delicious buffet and a pool!

Returning Home
We came back to Nomadas Hostel and Merida for the 3rd time (the 2nd was a one night stop on the way to Campeche). The only reason really was because we loved the pool and the bars and we had a few days to kill before heading to Cancun.
We really didn't do much. Bavo was still with us which was great so one afternoon we walked to the market …
Learning Spanish and the swimming pool
Walking through the city we were both suprised by how beautiful and Mexican it felt. It was a gorgeous colonial city in the centre (all we saw really). We stayed down the road from the main square and around a lot of great bars and cocinas.
We decided to head to Merida to check out a spanish school for a week but because it didn't start …

08 September 2014
Chris Goff, product manager, Epson UK, says: "The iProjection QR code connection makes it easy for anyone with a smartphone or tablet to link to theEB-W28. Once the Epson iProjection app has been downloaded to a smart device,it's just a matter of scanning a QR code that's projected by the EB-W28." http://www.inavateonthenet.net/article/82172/Epson-adds-QR-code-connectivity-to-projector.aspx
A growing number of highly successful campaigns that have incorporated a QR code have eliminated any doubt that it is possible to use these barcodes for tremendous achievements, but at the same time, there is a right way and a wrong way to getting the most out of what they have to offer a mobile marketing strategy.
Our investigators have been seeing some fantastic campaigns with a QR code, but there have also been some clear failures that have been spotted over the weeks. Mobile marketers that are seeking to use these barcodes for an inexpensive strategy that really pays off will need to pay attention to what other firms have done successfully, and where they have let themselves down.
Among the do's that our investigators recommend based on some of the leading campaigns that they have seen in the past are:
• Do create a call to action. Tell smartphone carrying consumers to use their mobile devices to scan the QR codes in order to be able to obtain something they want, whether it is an app download or a digital coupon for incredible savings. • Do provide a mobile friendly experience. Even if you convince a consumer to scan, if all they see on their small screen is a website designed for a larger display, this will be a fast track to the end of the experience. By making the experience easy to see and navigate on a smartphone, consumers will be more willing and able to stick around and interact with what they find. • Do offer social media sharing options. The only thing that is better than engaging one consumer is engaging many more. Give people who scan the QRcode the chance to share what they discover and like.
On the other hand, there are some don'ts that are important to avoid but that are still found all too frequently in campaigns featuring quick response codes.
• Don't place the barcode in a location that is hard to scan. Regardless of the offer and the great call to action, if your barcode requires too much effort to read – or if it is likely to drive off before a scan can be completed – then even the best campaigns will fail. • Don't forget to use multimedia features. Remember that the whole point of QR codes is to reach consumers on their smartphones. In this type of situation, a video can provide a much friendlier experience than a lengthy written document. It is also much more likely to be shared over social media. • Don't forget to check the function of the QR code. If you come up with a stunning campaign, but the barcode doesn't actually work due to some kind of error, then you have placed all of your eggs in a basket with a hole in the bottom.
This week, our investigators saw a QR code campaign that was close to perfect at Bank of America. The barcode was positioned so that customers waiting in line (and who therefore had nothing better to do than view the ad and read the barcode) could scan and download the mobile banking app. There was a call to action that explained exactly what the customer had to do and why, but it also took the additional step of telling the consumer that they can have the application demoed by a bank employee. This additional effort including employee support was exactly what was missed at the Venetian Hotel in Vegas, as pointed out by our investigators a few weeks ago.

About the Park and Nature Garden
Hillside Gardens Park is located between Hillside Road and Kingsmead Road in the London Borough of Lambeth, in South West London. Within easy walking distance you can discover the Park's best kept secret, the delightful Palace Road Nature Garden. The park is currently under serious pressure from council budget cuts. Please join our email list to find out more about our efforts to keep the park and nature garden open and in the best possible condition!
Both locations are much cherished, and frequented by a broad range of people. They offer a perfect balance between nature, play and physical recreation with enviable amenities available for all.
Within the Park there is a one o'clock club for parents and carers with toddlers and a playground for young children. Those wanting to work up a sweat have the use of 2 two football and basketball courts, four tennis courts (with an active social tennis programme) and recently installed outdoor fitness equipment. The park offers both a dog run and a dog free picnic area, several flower beds that our Horticultural Club help maintain and many mature trees, flowering shrubs and flower borders. There is something for everyone in Hillside Gardens Park and this has helped make it a vital centre for the community which has been recognized by the award of the prestigious Green Flag for the last four years running.
The Friends of Hillside Gardens plays a valuable role in the upkeep and planning of the park. It aims to promote activities such as sports and family fun days. It forms an interface between the residents and Lambeth Council to discuss maintenance and development plans. It is freely open to any park user who wishes to join and you will be welcomed with open arms.
Quarterly meetings of the Friends take place at St Simon and St Jude Church Hall just off Hillside Road.
There are all sorts of gardening and growing activities taking place in Hillside Gardens. Click here to find out more about the latest gardening activities.
Hillside Gardens Park is fortunate to have a broad variety of sports facilities available to the public including tennis courts, basketball courts, football courts, a childrens' playground and more. Click here for further information.
We have events taking place throughout the year ranging from the unveiling of the prestigious green flag, community events, opening gardening sessions and general gatherings.

LOVE that last one! LOL
Miley's tongue does not offend me in the least.
Of course, I am not a dolphin.
A poster at another forum I frequent explained how Miley, along with many other former child stars, has been 'Michael Jacksoned'. That is, she's had to work her entire childhood so now that she's grown up and no longer contractually obligated to be a good girl, she's gone wild. Understandable but it still doesn't excuse a girl that used to be a role model to my neices for acting like a cheap untalented stripper on national television.
Good thing Annette Funicello didn't know about twerking.

Hi there,
I recently had a rejection for "dark":
I agree with the reject, because at the time of shooting, it was indeed getting darker (only a couple rays of late afternoon sunshine were shining through the trees). I have a similar one already in the database (from another angle), but I like this angle as well (that was my reasoning for trying to get this in as well, besides the fact that it is preserved and that there are only a few in the database with this registration)
Can it be saved? I don't know what to do now (i.e. how to improve?). Is it allowed to make it a little bit lighter (although it was not really that way when I took the shot), or is that called "bad manipulation"? I also think that there is a risk to make it more grainy, if I try to lighten it...
Any suggestions?
Thanks and regards,

A record crowd of 1,200 season-ticket holders turned out for the Toronto Blue Jays' "state of the franchise" event Tuesday night, and discouraging words were seldom heard. After all, a winter renovation produced a team favoured by oddsmakers to win the World Series, and ticket sales have been brisk. But during the question-and-answer session at the Rogers Centre, one fan cast a dissenting vote for an Alex Anthopoulos acquisition. Why would the general manager hire Melky Cabrera, who served a 50-game suspension last season after testing positive for elevated testosterone levels?
