Re: Food Stylists ??
I haven't seen the shows, I don't think Jamie at home has come to Sweden and if/when it does, it's usually on a channel that I haven't got.
I understand really that you need a great staff to supply Jamie with all stufff for all shootings, 1 show per day, that's really tough!
When it comes to food stylists, and shooting food, I know there can be a few tricks involved. I am a journalist and I've occassionally been working on a weekly, editing the recipes. Once I also sold a large article with recipes for 7 dinners for families with little children, a whole week, to a parent's magazine. A photographer came to my house and we helped each other to arrange the dishes in an as appetizing way as possible.
Here is what I've learned:
- It's almost impossible to take pictures of brown sauce. It just looks so UGLY.
- Green peas shouldn't be thawed through, or they'll go wrinkled quickly.
- Soup is another challenge. Most ingredients will sink to the bottom of the dish and leave a greyish surface. I read an article about a food stylist who said the solution was sand at the bottom of the dish.
- The same food stylist said that just a little droplet of washing-up liquid brought about those fancy bubbles you see in the coffee ads.
I have hardly seen any of Jamie's TV shows, I saw some fron The Naked Chef but that was when my kids were little and I had very little time to watch TV. And now when they're on Swedish Ch 5, I can't. I like the books though, and when it comes to the photographs, I like them, I like the rythm in them, showing close-ups of dishes ready to eat, but also what the courses look like just before they go in the oven, people, and vegetables, herbs, fish and meat the way they look before you start cooking and so on. I guess there are food stylists involved for the pictures in the books as well?

Hi Georgie,
I was just wondering, how do you get into Food Styling?
Do you have to have a food science degree or a cooking course under your belt?

Can't wait for tomorrow ! I think it'll be REALLY close if they go clean.
2n- Mao/Yu-Na
Ando isn't out of it..
Last edited by ☆Genie; 02-24-2010 at 08:40 PM.
Well. It ain't over till it's over.
So does Mao no longer do 3/3 combos because they were getting DG'd or because she just can't do them at all?
I just hope that if Joannie is able to win a medal that eventually she will be able to look at it without it being tarnished by the memory of what happend at these games.

I like the LP skating order. I am glad Joanne will skate after Miki/Yuna/Mao because no matter where these three end up, I will ball my eyes out watching Joanne and her skate will put everything in proper perspective. We will root for her and she will make us all realize how much we love skating and what these olympians are made of. This is a beautiful sport but a mere sport, and that the most important thing life is family and people around you. Then Mirai will bop (in a good way) around the ice with her mega smile and mesmerizing spins and spirals and lift our heavy heart from Joanne. And we don't have to worry about the curse of last spot for Ladies. Can't wait.
If we can create the perfect skater out of the Final Flight, it would be like this:
Rachael's consistency
Miki's guts
Yuna's X-factor
Mao's grace
Joannie's heart
Mirai's spunkiness
I think the only way Mao can win gold now is for Yuna to make 2 large mistakes (falling on two jumps) and for Mao to skate a FLAWLESS program with BOTH triple axels fully rotated.
My prediction for LP:
Yu-na will skate a clean program but receive a negative GOE on one of her jumps (probably the salchow) because of a shaky landing.
Mao will land both of her triple axels but receive a downgrade on the second one.
Yu-na beats Mao by 6.57 points overall and wins the OGM.
Joannie skates an outstanding LP and receives the bronze.
Any takes?

Pair must learn to work together, and if that can't be achieved then coach Hesson is the man who should go.
Doing a u-turn. Eating humble pie. Backtracking.
Call it what you like, and calling Mike Hesson.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, Mike, involves returning Ross Taylor to the test captaincy for the three-test series here against England as New Zealand cricket tries to haul itself out of a catastrophe.
On the subject of national coach Hesson, has there ever been a bigger, single selection-type botch-up in New Zealand sport? His blading of Taylor as captain rocked the boat on the eve of the toughest tour in world cricket, and a sinking ship has been sent plummeting to the bottom by South Africa.
Bailing out on his team and the fans hardly puts Taylor in a good light, either. Taylor was a turkey for refusing to tour South Africa, a decision which doomed Brendon McCullum's mission - but let's call it Taylor's Mulligan and get on with what needs to be done.
Taylor is our only world-class test player, and that makes him the natural leader however unnatural he may appear in the job.
McCullum is hardly putting a foot right during the two-test series. There's been a lack of command on the field and his decision to bat first in the first test came unstuck like a jellyfish trying to cling to a rocket.
Taylor concedes he needs to work on some captaincy areas and he should get the chance. Unlike McCullum - with two pivotal first-innings test failures on this tour - Taylor's batting improved with the leadership to the point he almost single-handedly won the test against Sri Lanka while being unseated and insulted by Hesson.
More than anything, though, the sulking Taylor's unfortunate strike action has at least shown how much the leadership means to him.
Restoring Taylor to the top job will be just the fillip to bring out the best in our best player now that he has deigned to make his services available again, lucky old us. This isn't a moral issue but a practical one, of getting the best out of our meagre cricketing resources. It is also the strategy Hesson claims he tried to hatch in the Sri Lankan hotel meeting with Taylor, although many of us believe he wanted to sack Taylor from all three captaincy positions.
McCullum has had little to work with and a lot to work against in South Africa, but he's made a pig's ear of the job. His foray into test captaincy could not have gone any worse.
A crossroads for the sport has turned into a dangerous intersection. McCullum's team, our team, is an embarrassment that could doom New Zealand cricket, the test version.
This is crisis time. The thought of another travesty occurring against England can't be tolerated.
The Sir Lankan victory should have secured Taylor's captaincy for the time being. So let the the last few weeks go down as a horrible nightmare and hope against hope that there are enough nuggets of gold hidden somewhere in hills of failure.
Hesson and the irreplaceable Taylor have to learn to work together, and if that can't be achieved, then the coach is the man who should go.
If any players don't like the thought of Taylor returning as captain, they can bite the bullet knowing they aren't good enough for that opinion to count.
As for Taylor, he might exhibit new-found skills by expressing regret for quitting on his mates. In the heat of the moment, we can all get big decisions wrong. Unfortunately, Taylor's comments so far indicate that's Admission Improbable.
Gloating-free commentary
The cricket commentaries from South Africa, with our own Simon Doull supplementing locals such as Mike Haysman and Kepler Wessels, are excellent. The commentary has been down to earth and informative, raised interesting issues and been refreshingly free of gloating (the sort you get watching Australian sport and the All Blacks) considering how dominant South Africa is.
Nelsen vital to QPR
If Ryan Nelsen is trying to get to Toronto early for his new coaching post, he did a bad job of it for Queens Park Rangers against Tottenham Hotspur. The All Whites soccer legend was a key influence as a QPR side set up to harass and defend grabbed a vital point against Spurs, one of the best sides in the English Premier League. Manager Harry Redknapp will be reluctant to let Nelsen go as QPR continue a rearguard action to avoid relegation.

This moisturizer is an example of a good formula gone bad due to a few unfortunate additions. In this case, it's a real shame, because this product contains a nice mix of moisturizing ingredients, antioxidants, and skin-identical substances.
What makes this a problem for skin is the amount of fragrant rose and lavender extracts, and sandalwood and citrus oils. These irritants harm the skin's ability to heal and have a negative effect on healthy collagen production (the opposite of replenishing skin!). See More Info for details on why this is such a problem for skin.
It is also important to point out that Hydrating Day and Night Cream is not to be used for daytime because it doesn't contain sunscreen. You shouldn't have to double up on your daytime moisturizer to get sun protection, especially when there are plenty of brilliant moisturizers to choose from that do have the ingredients needed to achieve a sufficient SPF rating. You'll find them on our list of Best Moisturizers With Sunscreen.
Daily use of products that contain a high amount of fragrance, whether the fragrant ingredients are synthetic or natural, causes chronic irritation that can damage healthy collagen production, lead to or worsen dryness, and impair your skin's ability to heal. Fragrance-free is the best way to go for all skin types. If fragrance in your skin-care products is important to you, it should be a very low amount to minimize the risk to your skin (Sources: Inflammation Research, December 2008, pages 558–563; Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, June 2008, pages 124–135, and November-December 2000, pages 358–371; Journal of Investigative Dermatology, April 2008, pages 15–19; Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, March 2008, pages 78–82; Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, January 2007, pages 92–105; and British Journal of Dermatology, December 2005, pages S13–S22).
A hydrating daily moisturiser with Rose, Natural Omega 6 Fatty Acids, Lavender, Noni Extract and Rose Hip and Mandarin Oil delicately blended with Bergamot to help replenish, revitalise and invigorate a dull, dry complexion. Specifically formulated to leave the skin hydrated, soft, smooth and supple.
Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea), Matricaria Chamomilla (Chamomile), Rosa Centifolia (Rose), Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender), Olea Europea (Olive) Leaf Extract, Macadamia Integrifolia (Macadamia) Seed Oil, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Olivoyl Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glyceryl Oleate, Glyceryl Stearate, Glycerin, Morinda Citrifolia (Noni Fruit) Extract, Rosa Eglantaria (Rose Hip) Oil, D-Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate (Soybean Derived Natural Vitamin E), Punica Granatum (Pomegranate) Sterols, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Benzyl Alcohol, Dehydroacetic Acid, Xanthan Gum, Carageenan, Bisabolol, Santalum Spicatum (Sandalwood) Oil, Citrus Reticulata (Mandarin) Oil, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Oil, Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C), Lecithin, Sodium Hyalonurate, Polyglutamic Acid (Natto Gum), Rosa Damascena (Rose) Oil, Citrus Aurantium Ssp Bergamia (Bergamot) Oil, Beta Carotene, Olea Europea (Olive) Oil, Sodium Chloride (Macrobiotic Sea Salt), Lactic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Aqua (Water), Limonene, Linalool, Geraniol & Citronellol.
Strengths: No jar containers, which helps preserve the beneficial antioxidants and other light- and air-sensitive natural ingredients.
Weaknesses: Products contain an overwhelming amount of fragrance; nearly all have multiple irritating ingredients; makes unsubstantiated claims about ingredients; no reliable sunscreens; average, dated formulas that are overpriced for what you get.
Our introduction to KORA Organics began with this quote from its founder, Australian Victoria's Secret lingerie model Miranda Kerr: "All of the water used in our mists has been infused through rose quartz crystals … so that the vibration of love associated with rose quartz flows through each product."
That's one way Kerr describes the science behind how her products have been developed. It also succinctly summarizes why, from our perspective, celebrity status of any kind does not make anyone a skin-care expert. We can't think of a bigger mistake than trusting your skin to a love-infused vat of problematic formulas, at least not when it comes to dealing with concerns like acne and wrinkles.
Kerr created the KORA Organics brand with the belief that only organic ingredients are suitable for skin. The KORA line makes the unsurprising (and unsubstantiated) claims common to many natural brands, which is that "natural = good" for your skin and everything else is terrible for your skin.
Let's begin by addressing the "organic" claim. First of all, the term initially was used primarily in reference to food products, where "organic" referred only to the raw materials (i.e., the vegetable you pull out of the ground) and/or described food produced without the use of pesticides or artificially created or administered hormones—it didn't have any bearing on skin-care products. Nowadays, as we're sure you're aware, it's commonly used in marketing for cosmetics and their ingredients. BUT—and this is a big BUT—there is no legitimate, published research that demonstrates organic ingredients have any special benefit for skin. There's literally zero research—it's all about the emotional pull of the term "organic."
It's important to note that any natural ingredient must be processed to make it safe and usable as a cosmetic ingredient, and that processing modifies the ingredient significantly, leaving it about as natural as polyester!
Many natural ingredients have benefits for skin, but many natural ingredients also are irritating and skin damaging as well. The natural pleasant-scented lavender oil is a notable example, as are most citrus extracts, some of which can cause phototoxic reactions when skin is exposed to sunlight. On the other hand, some of the best ingredients in skin-care products are synthetically derived, such as retinol, salicylic acid, peptides, and others. When it comes to evaluating skin-care ingredients, the critical factor is what the published and peer-reviewed research has demonstrated to be true, especially if your goal is to take great care of your skin.
Among the key natural ingredients present in KORA Organics products, those called out most often are rosehip oil and noni juice. Kerr claims she has been applying noni juice topically for years to treat all her skin-care woes. Unfortunately, noni juice has little research demonstrating any special benefit for skin beyond an antioxidant benefit, which is found in hundreds of other plant extracts as well. Kerr claims that the noni plant contains "more than 170 vitamins and minerals alone," but that's inaccurate—the noni plant is a fairly simple mix of about 40 chemical compounds, none of which are unique.
Rosehip oil does contain high amounts of vitamin C, but only when freshly extracted—when rosehip oil is processed and added to the formula of a skin-care product, the majority of its vitamin C content is destroyed. Fortunately, even after the processing, rosehip oil remains a good emollient for dry skin, but it isn't as magical as Kerr makes it out to be. Pure, stabilized vitamin C is a far better ingredient for skin, but that's not what these products contain.
What you're left with in this line is a collection of products that are potently fragranced—the toners could actually double as perfume in a pinch. Almost every product in the line has a formula that's a blend of ordinary plant-based emollients, such as olive and jojoba oils, aloe, shea butter, and fatty acids (which is nice for dry skin but that's about it), and a mix of irritating essential oils and fragrant flower extracts. Unfortunately, all of the products are quite expensive considering what you're getting in return, which is a mostly just a headache for your skin.
If you're interested in natural products, there are far better options than the disappointing ones from KORA Organics. Check out our reviews of Alba Botanica or Yes To for comparable or superior alternatives for far less money.

The Houston Space Center serves as Ground Control for all manned missions once they leave the atmosphere. They are currently in charge of the International Space Station and will take over from Cape Canaveral (Kennedy Space Center) once the Space Shuttle Endeavor reaches Earth orbit on July the 11th. All the unmanned Mars missions are coordinated elsewhere. In addition to being Ground Control, the Houston Space Center is where all Astronauts train. There are facilities that simulate zero gravity such as large water tanks, as well as complex flight simulators
On the way back taking the couple to their hotel they were talking about how they were going to a conference in the evening. As we get closer, we see all this smoke in the distance. It appeared to us that the Convention Centre was on fire! On driving past it looked more like the smoke was coming out the front where the road was so it could have been a bus on fire. All I can say is there was a lot of smoke. I guess I'll have to watch the news to find out what the story was.
Tomorrow is July 4th, Independence Day. There are apparently fireworks in the city, but I am really not sure what will be open etc. I guess I will have to research into that.

I wonder if it would be possible to make a Mando armor that is a combo of ceramic, carbon fiber and kevlar? The plates could be put on with an industrial strength velcro onto a jacket type under mesh. The helmet could be made in a similar fashion with a HUD using modern components of the armor land warrior system, a laser range finder and built in communications array along with built in fans. Just day dreaming here cause I am bored and being an UBR geekazoid!

Ryan, there is a good market for your bees wax. I just saw a blurb on TV about them making a "dust" out of bees wax to neutralize oil spills. using space-age technology. It soaks up the oil, then the goop becomes totally bio-degradible. YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO CLEAN IT UP ! When it gets wet natural microbes will totally degrade it ( both oil and wax ). They probably used it on the gulf oil spill last summer. Thea would take many TONS of wax !
I find myself looking at dcoates plywoos nuc plans thread.
I would be interested in a list of any public presentations delivered or found worthwhile. Much better than reinventing the wheel.

Queen rearing and nucs

As a new member and a new BK, it would be helpful to have a beginner section. In this section, there could be individual sections to address the questions on Washboarding, yellow jacket, feeding, treatments, types of bees, pros and cons of queen excluders, time of day to inspect a hive, what to do during long periods of rain, preparing for winter, etc.
Sorry folks i have not really worked on this. I need help. Volunteers needed!

Jack G. - Thank you for the link to Sue Cobey's article on the Cloake board queen rearing method! That helps!
Also - for a reference section, wouldn't we be listing references, not topics? I'd love to see more book lists, dissertations published at Cornell University, Univ. of California at Davis, etc. , publications of the National Bee Laboratory and various state bee inspection agencies, Apimondia papers, an archive of American Bee Journal and Gleanings in Bee Culture magazine articles, English beekeeping certification test preps,...an on-line reference section or even a full-blown beekeepers' library.
It would be nice if this were accessible from entering the site as is the build-it-yourself section.
If a reference section were created, one topic that I am always interested in is overwintering nucs. Michael Palmer has posted some great information in the past about his methods.

This is a common misreading of checkerboarding as described by walt wrigt....ome that will in most cases will cause real problems. I eould put this.as on of the most misunderstood concepts.in beekeeping.
Checkerboarding is.done above the brood nest, not in it. Following the advice you give is likely to spread the bees out too much in the hive...brood will likely be chilled.
Much like blooms it would be nice to see drone activity. I know I'm on my own here in wy but I can extrapolate given zone, temp.
Jack G - Thanks also for Mel Disselkoen's article. After reading what he came up with 20+ years ago, I'm feeling much more innovative. Some of this beats Alley's Cut Cell Method and when you combine it with Cloake's board, queen rearing is getting very easy! He's correct about Farrar's Law. Fortunately, I read this in time to try this year.
I'd like to see something about uses of prooplis

Cleo Hogan's Trap out box design and method.
I'd REALLY like to see product reviews for equipment, also equipment suppliers, package suppliers, customer services issues, quality concerns... etc. It would be extremely beneficial for newbies like myself. I stumbled into a few wrong purchases which in hindsight I wish I could of avoided.
Also hive ventilation, there seems to be so many varying viewpoints sprinkled through out the forum in various posts. Also a lot of opposing viewpoints in beekeeping books.
Love to see more reference info on small scale queen rearing. Thanks
Did a reference section actually ever happen??
Come on guys. Mike can't do it for you. Ever try Google?
How about the taxpayer funded Robo Bee projexct at Harvard:
Or RNAi(nterference) This opens up a whole new field of disease control.
Or a(5yr old) TED talk by Dr.Dennis VanE,still an inspiration.
Jack - Thank you for the links! I really enjoyed Dennis vanEnglesdorp's talk, and the RNAi slideshow.
Barry - I'd like to expand on my post #27 - it would be cool if we could get public domain permission for the magazine articles from ABJ, GBC, Bee Culture, and the academic papers of the universities. I understand that would probably not be easy to obtain...but it would be worth looking into. It would seem that the universities would be a little bit easier to work with, but who knows?
A book review section would save a lot of people a lot of headaches (and heartaches) with their bees. Reading is a shortcut to beekeeping success. Beesource is a fantastic addition to the bee literature!

A generally accepted belief shared by fanboys and detractors alike is that gamers purchase Nintendo consoles and handhelds to play Mario titles. Sure, there are your other first-party heavy-hitters like the Pokémon and Legend of Zelda franchises, but Mario and company are seen to be the ones that really move systems. All that being said, after spending weeks wrapped up in its expansive universe, thoughtful gameplay and gorgeous presentation, I am positive of one thing — Fire Emblem: Awakening is a Mario-free 3DS system seller.
My love of turn-based strategy RPGs dates back to the age of the Game Boy Advance. Advance Wars, a title unfortunately released on September 11th of 2001, set the stage as an accessible, enjoyable entry point into this rather niche genre. After that Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, the North American debut of the Fire Emblem series and eventually the then import-only Super Robot Wars franchise continued to compound my new-found passion for this deliberate and thought-provoking style of gameplay.
I reference my earlier brushes with these exemplary games because, on almost a molecular level, Fire Emblem: Awakening represents the very best that portable turn-based strategy has to offer. To the uninitiated observer it probably looks like another healthy dose of Western fantasy wrapped in Japanese RPG tropes, and on a purely cosmetic level this is true. The deeper one delves, however, the more likely an astute gamer is to notice Awakening's polished interface, high-caliber voice acting and stunning visuals.

Mountain Weather forecast - East Highlands
For snow and avalanche hazard forecasts please visit Sportscotland Avalanche Information Service
The East Highlands includes a large part of the Cairngorm National Park and the Balmoral Estate, the Scottish home of the Royal family since 1852. The East Highlands are also home to a number of ski resorts including the Glenshee Ski Centre, the largest in the UK. The centre extends across four mountains, Glas Maol the largest at 1,068m and Carn Aosda the smallest at 917m, and includes 36 different ski runs.
Whilst a little smaller than its westerly neighbour, the East Highlands remain, by far, Britain's second largest mountain region. These dimensions can change depending on who you ask, as the exact dividing line between the East and West Highlands is still a bone of contention.
The most accepted consensus is that east meets west at Creag Meagaidh in Glen Spean. It is also this location which provides one of the area's most popular activities - ice climbing. This is thanks to its vast plateau from which five munros (that seem almost made for climbing) stretch out. Seeing as plenty is on offer for visitors and it is crammed in a relatively small area, it should come as no surprise that the Creag Meagaidh area has been praised as offering all that is good about the Highlands in a single nature reserve.
East Highlands weather page provides a 5 day weather forecast for many places within East Highlands mountains and the surrounding area, featuring 3 hourly updates on weather conditions for rainfall, temperature, wind speed and wind direction.
Weather Warnings and alerts for the East Highlands region are also displayed during periods of severe weather. We warn the public and emergency responders of severe or hazardous weather which has the potential to cause danger to life or widespread disruption through our National Severe Weather Warning Service. Weather warnings are displayed for rain, snow, wind, fog and ice. For more information please view our weather warnings guide page.

CPJ supports Pakistani journalists facing threats
New York, December 29, 2011--The Committee to Protect Journalists admires and supports the decision of Pakistani journalists Najam Sethi and Jugnu Mohsin to make public the threats that have driven them at times to live outside their country in recent months. Sethi and Mohsin are returning to their home in Lahore and are determined to continue their independent work in the media. They, like other journalists in Pakistan in recent weeks, have opted to openly confront those making the threats, which have come from both state and non-state actors.

Re: succulent prawns and trout
It was pretty easy, coals hot from a barbecue, in a bucket, the trout fillets on a skewer, possibly 2 skewers, I think.
Same with the prawns.
Then a damp tea towel over the top. I hope to do this when the sun comes out. Can't remember if wood chips were involved or not.
Smoked and cooked.
I will follow the link and watch it again. But not tonight.

text: I put a trap in an area where I had seen bee activity before. Single used deep with three well used frames of comb. Today, I saw a lot of bees coming in and entering the box. Not regular hive activity, but either investigative, or local bees harvesting some tidbits. No honey in the frames. Can you differentiate between the two behaviors? What would I look for if there is an observable difference? Seems like the bees are checking things out but might just be trying to locate the "goodies".

I'm just beginning hobbyist beekeeping (hoping to start with maybe two hives and probably won't ever have very many more than that) and have been researching top bar hives.

For Cuban dissidents, prison is the only destination
I was born beneath the yoke of a tyranny, now more than 50 years old, in which prison is the only destination for its deterrents. I first came across this destination in 1997, when I was sentenced to five years in prison for the alleged crime of committing an outrage "against state security." In Cuba, besides being a journalist, I was the coordinator of the Cuban Youth for Democracy Movement, an organization that defends the many truncated rights within higher learning institutions, such as a university's autonomy. The answer to our demands? Prison.

These ponytail cuffs are gorgeous! I ordered 2, because I wear my hair in a ponytail most days, and I really wanted something that would punch it up but still be professional enough for the office. I do have very thick hair, but I was surprised at how small the cuff was. It barely went halfway around my ponytail, then adding in the additional thickness of the hair tie, there was just no way. I had to return them, even though I really wanted them to work!2
I bought this for my girlfriend after she saw a friend with one in and loved it. She ended up giving this away. It's not good for thick hair - it didn't fit all the way around her ponytail and looked silly half open.
It's adorable on medium thickness hair, though.
If I hadn't followed the how to make a good pony video that was recommended with it on this site, I might not have liked it so much. But since I did, I had a fun, classy pony that I got compliments on all day. Perfect accessory for those really hot outdoor days when you still want to look stylish.4

By: Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D.
Drugs manufactured in countries around the world account for 40 percent of the medicines we use in the United States. And an astonishing 80 percent of the active ingredients in the drugs we consume come from abroad.
Therefore, it is absolutely essential that we have regulations and procedures in place not just here at home but abroad as well to ensure that the medicines you and I rely on are safe, no matter where they come from. After all, lives and well-being are at stake if drugs are of questionable quality.
One of the greatest threats to safety involves substandard, falsified and counterfeit medical products in the supply chain. For the past several years, FDA has been engaged in global efforts to improve collaboration in preventing, detecting, and responding to this threat.
We have developed strong partnerships with the World Health Organization and the Asia Pacific Economic Community and we also collaborate with such development agencies as the U.S. Agency for International Development and the World Bank.
To further extend our global understanding and impact, in 2011 FDA commissioned a committee at the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to look at how falsified (fake) and poor quality drugs affect the health of people around the world. A report on its findings and recommendations was recently released.
It confirmed FDA's belief that these fraudulent and inferior drugs are an international problem requiring international cooperation.
Briefly, here are some of the findings of the IOM report.
- Neglecting good manufacturing practices is the root cause of poor quality drugs. However, quality practices require resources. Many of the countries in which people sorely need medical help just don't have the financial wherewithal and other resources to mandate and monitor these good practices.
- Bad medicines, whether sold in street markets or on unregulated websites, are a grave public health problem. They often fail to help—and often harm—the very people who most need them. In addition, they may promote antibiotic resistance which harms us all.
- Crime and corruption drive the business of falsified medicines, and they are rampant overseas. A month's supply of the lowest price generic ulcer medicine costs more than three days' wages for the average government worker in much of Africa, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. The poorest patients have little choice but to buy their medicines from vendors who sell products of questionable quality.
- In modern supply chains, medicines can change hands many times, in many countries, before they reach patients. Each exchange provides the opportunity for unscrupulous behavior on the part of manufacturers and distributors.
The IOM report recommends that FDA continue to reach beyond our U.S. borders to collaborate with our foreign counterparts in building regulatory strategies for the implementation and control of good manufacturing practices. FDA now has 12 posts around the world that are currently working to do just that with our global partners, as well as with industry and scientific and academic communities in these countries.
The IOM committee believes that we must identify where vulnerabilities exist in the legitimate drug supply chain and identify realistic national and international solutions. The panel also urged Congress to establish a track-and-trace system to keep a record of drugs as they travel from the manufacturer to the patient.
Between social media and up-to-the-second news coverage, the world seems like a much smaller place these days. But as this report makes clear, it's actually larger than ever, and our challenges to provide a global "safety net" are many and formidable.
The IOM report is an important resource in our quest to strengthen that safety net. For me, this report reinforces the knowledge that when it comes to ensuring the safety of medicines worldwide, we are heading in the right direction.
Margaret A. Hamburg, M.D., is Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration

The challenge is to get to 1 dan, or another target grade of your choosing. Signing up to the challenge is a committment to do some regular study and some serious play. In exchange we arrange for a mentor to help you get stronger.
To sign up, you must be a BGA member, and you must be a kyu player.
Then you must be prepared to make the commitment to study and set yourself a target. If you are not yet ready for the 1 dan target, you should choose a lesser one for yourself. Generally, 10 kyus and weaker should be aiming to improve by at least 3 grades, 2 kyus to 9 kyus should be aiming to improve by at least 2 grades.
The 2008 challenge has just started on August 3rd, with the sending out of 21 pairings of mentors and challengers, and the welcome emails.
Please report any problems to the organizers.
I hope the challengers and mentors will create a community, focussed around this section of the web site. There is already a mailing list for all participants. Hopfully we can add a forum and a photo gallery - it all depends on how much I (or we) learn about what the site is capable of.
Another meeting point is the British Room on KGS. The challenge is also sometimes discussed on the gotalk email list.
As last year, we hope to organize some lunchtime talks at selected tournaments.
This is the third year the shodan challenge has run. We still have the information about the challenge in previous years.

12th suspicious fire found at Masten Butte
Officials say human caused, OSP arson investigator called out,
La PINE, Ore. - An Oregon State Police arson investigator was called in to help look for the cause of a dozen small, suspicious fires that broke out within 2 1/2 hours Tuesday afternoon on private forestland in the area of Masten Butte, near the Deschutes-Klamath County line.
Investigators on scene Wednesday found a 12th fire, which burned a total of about three acres combined and ranged from 1/10 of an acre to a little over an acre.
They were reported between 1:30 and 3:50 p.m. Tuesday in an area of sage and timber on private and state-protected forestland southwest of La Pine and east of Wickiup Reservoir, said Echo Murray, dispatch coordinator for the Crescent-based Walker Range Forest Protective Association.
"Today (Wednesday), it's about making sure fires are contained, identifying the origin areas within those fires, so we can methodically go through those areas and try to determine a cause," said Ben Duda with the Oregon Department of Forestry.
Officials on scene said the fires all burned within about a mile of each other, and the closest home was about a mile away.
The fires broke out on Cascade Timberlands property, two of them on land protected by Walker and the others on land protected by the Oregon Department of Forestry, Murray said.
"We haven't had any lightning, so these are believed to be human-caused," Murray said, adding that the fires were turning up "one right after another."
MIke Carlson of Walker Range said the proximity to homes was a good thing, in a way.
"From a subdivision down the road here, this ridge is very viewable, he said near one of the still-burning fires. "A lot of people traveling out here can see the smoke, call Walker Range."
Crews from around Central Oregon came to assist, including the Deschutes National Forest out of Bend and ODF crews out of Sisters. Some crews were pulled off prescribed burns in the area to tackle the fire Tuesday, and a helicopter was involved in the effort on Wednesday, to make sure no other fires were in the vicinity.
By nightfall, Murray told NewsChannel 21 crews were heading off the lines and the "fires are looking really good at this point."
While no structures were threatened, the timing of the fires – so many in one area in a short time frame – prompted the arson investigator call-out.
"They came up in the hot part of the day, with wind on them causing a few problems," she said. Crews were "just getting a handle on one and another would come up."
Fortunately, Murray said, on late-season fires, temperatures – and fire behavior – begin to drop quickly as the day progresses.
The fires were encircled and declared under control Tuesday evening, but were still burning. Carlson said they likely would monitor and let them burn themselves out, which could take a couple of weeks.
ATV users and horseback riders use the trails regularly, but the answer to whether these fires were intentionally or accidentally set could take a while.
"It's things like this that damage the relationship between the land owner and the community so it's unfortunate," Duda said.

While the REST design philosophy has captured the imagination of web and enterprise developers alike, using this approach to develop real web services is no picnic. This cookbook includes more than 100 recipes to help you take advantage of REST, HTTP, and the infrastructure of the Web. You'll learn ways to design RESTful web services for client and server applications that meet performance, scalability, reliability, and security goals, no matter what programming language and development framework you use.
Each recipe includes one or two problem statements, with easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions for solving them, as well as examples using HTTP requests and responses, and XML, JSON, and Atom snippets. You'll also get implementation guidelines, and a discussion of the pros, cons, and trade-offs that come with each solution.
Subbu Allamaraju is a Principal Engineer at Yahoo! where, during the last one year, he has been developing standards and practices for designing RESTful Web APIs. Prior to that Subbu developed web services/Java based software and contributed to JCP and OASIS standards at BEA Systems Inc. Subbu has contributed to four books on J2EE, all published by Wrox. For a complete list of his works, and writings, see http://www.subbu.org/about.
View Subbu Allamaraju's full profile page.
The animal on the cover of RESTful Web Services Cookbook is a great fringed lizard orHatteria punctata. Hatteria, more commonly known as tuatara, are endemic to NewZealand; "tuatara" is a native Maori word meaning "peaks on back" (referring to theirspiky, or fringed, spines). The name "great fringed lizard" is a misnomer; though theyresemble common lizards, tuatara are quite different anatomically, and, unlike lizards,they're nocturnal and enjoy cool weather. Misclassified as lizards by the British Museumin 1831, tuatara were reclassified by zoologist Albert G nther in 1867 as Rhynchocephala, an order from which many Mesozoic fossil species are known. In fact, some scientists refer to these reptiles, the only living representative of Rhynchocephala, as"living fossils."
Tuatara grow very slowly-they don't reach maturity until they are 13-20 years old and don't stop growing until they are about 30. It is believed that tuatara in the wild can reach the impressive age of 80 or older. Their average length is 20-31 inches and they weigh 1-3 pounds. They can be gray, olive, or brick red, and their coloring can change over their lifetime. As adults, they shed their skin at least once per year. Other physical characteristics include a diapsid skull (two openings on either side), a lack of external ears, acrodont tooth structure (meaning the teeth are fused to the jawbone-another fact that distinguishes tauatara from lizards), and a third eye. This third eye grows on top of the head-under the skin in adults-and has a retina, lens, and nerve endings, although it is not used for seeing. It is, however, sensitive to light and is thought by some to help the tuatara detect the time of day or season.
Despite an endangered status, the tuatara maintains high visibility in and around NewZealand. Until October 2006, it was featured on one side of New Zealand's 5-cent piece,but the coin has since been phased out. The reptiles also figure prominently in Maoriculture; they are esteemed as ariki (god forms). According to indigenous legends,they're messengers of Whiro, the god of death and disaster, and Maori women areforbidden to eat them. They also represent tapu, the line marking all things sacred andbeyond which lie potentially serious consequences (manu). Maori women have beenknown to tattoo lizards or tuatara near their genitals to symbolize the concept oftapu. Today, tuataras are regarded as a taonga (treasure), and as the kaitiaki (guardian) of the trails to the mental and spiritual realms that give humans life.

About Me Developer, Maker
I always had questions in mind, like how this could be done in best way, Looked like author of the book compiled all of these questions, and made one of the perfect FAQ book. It is an awesome book, Author has good knowledge about REST and explains it in better way.The only thing which I didn't like is there is too many referencing between chapters, like stuff being talked about which would come in future chapter.

text: I'm a newbie with my first hive and it's a TTBH. I put three 1/2 inch holes(instead of one larger one) on the front of my hive towards the side and a fellow beek was telling me that I should put the entrance on the side of the hive in the middle, so the bees can fan with the entrance in-line with the comb instead of across the comb. The beek told be that the bees won't be able to fan properly with the holes on the end of the hive. He also said that it is more natural for the bees to start in the middle and work outwards. What's everyone's thoughts on the subject?

While I was with my family over the 4th, there was a family friend who used to have a successful tea business. He and I were talking and he was mentioning that pairing tea and honey together could be a good business venture. However, I am not so sure.
Any thoughts on this? Think that selling a custom tea blend could be beneficial business wise?

Predator Becomes Prey: Microsoft Sued Over Windows 8, WinPhone "Live Tiles"
Jason Mick

Microsoft finds itself on the defensive for once
Somewhere in Germany sit stocks of handsets from Google Inc. (
) subsidiary Motorola Mobility. The handsets were
seized by German authorities
after the courts found that the onboard mobile operating system likely violated user interface and file system patents owned by Microsoft Corp. (
) makers of the ubiquitous Windows operating system. Soon the handsets may be destroyed.
But after preying on newcomers to the operating system world like Google's
pay-or-be-sued approach
, Microsoft finds itself in the crosshairs of a major mobile suit that could compromise its most critical platform launch -- the
Windows 8
Windows Phone 8
The case lands in an unusual jurisdiction --
U.S. District Court for the District of Maine
-- far from Microsoft's home on the West Coast. The suit alleges Microsoft "stole" the concept Live Tiles, which the plaintiffs claim they invented in 2000 and received a patent for in 2004, with
U.S. Patent 6,724,403
Customizable Live Tiles in Windows Phone 8
The owners founded a startup named
. They describe it, writing:
SurfCast designs Operating System technology and has four issued patents with additional applications pending.
SurfCast designed a new concept referred to as 'Tiles'.
Tiles can be thought of as dynamically updating icons. A Tile is different from an icon because it can be both selectable and live -- containing refreshed content that provides a real-time or near-real-time view of the underlying information.
Tiles can provide dynamic bookmarking -- an at-a-glance view of the current status of the program, file, or content associated with it.
Tiles enable people to have all their content, applications, and resources, regardless of whether on their mobile device, tablet, computer, or in their Cloud -- visualized persistently -- dynamically updating.
It's hard to deny Microsoft's Live Tiles narrowly mirror the technology described in SurfStar's patents, which came out before the Live Tiles landed as part of the "Metro UI" in Windows Phone's 2009 launch.
SurfStar's Live Tiles (left) are uncannily like Microsoft's Live Tiles (right).
Microsoft appears to have known for some time about SurfStar's IP, so this suit shouldn't come as a big surprise. The electronics giant in 2005 tried to patent Live Tiles with
U.S. Patent 7,933,632
. The patent was finally granted in 2011, but only after Microsoft cited SurfStar's "relevant prior art".
The SurfStar suit targets "Windows Phone, Microsoft Surface with the Windows RT Operating System, Microsoft Windows RT, Microsoft Windows 8, Microsoft Windows 8 Pro, and Microsoft Windows 8 Enterprise Operating System" -- pretty much all of Microsoft's next-gen operating system platform. SurfStar also suggest that devices with Windows 8 or Windows 8 apps that use animated Live Tiles may also be in infringement and potentially liable for future damages.
SurfStar asks the court to force Microsoft to "account and pay to SurfCast all damages caused to SurfCast by reason of Microsoft's patent infringement."
On the surface (no pun intended) it appears that SurfStar has a compelling and valid case, but it's always hard to pick out savvy trolls from earnest inventors. Either way, the turn of events is certainly highly ironic, given the hell Microsoft has put Android through in terms of aggressive intellectual property threats and litigation.

text: Well I guess Joe had a talk with the players on the way home last night and they played with a little more conviction. If he told Flip to play AJ, Flip still ignored him by not putting him until the game was in hand and was pretty much over. How do you expect AJ to learn when he has to play out there with shoot first-pass later Flip jr and tonight's post-up and paint star of the Nazmo The 4th quarter was all garbage time and although the Pistons scored 20 points they went at least 5 mins at one stretch trading rebounds. Naz scored 15 pts and went to the line 8 times. Other Pistons highlites: Rip 10 assists, Cb six three pointers, Dyess 7-7 from the field in the first half. Max 8 boards. Once again Tay was just there......?? Good comeback win on the second night of a back to back and statment that you are still a team to be reckon with by knocking off an undefeated team. Kaman got off scoring wise, in front of family and friends, but was not able to dominate the boards like he had done in his first four games. Sam E.T Cassell who had 37 points vs the Pacers Wednesday was held to 4 tonight. No Cuttino Mobley and other than Kaman, a lot of misses by Tim Thomas and Al Thorton.

Something like that.
Not crazy on Mingo...I have Ansah, Moore and Okafor rated higher..I'd rather go after Taylor or Mopanga in the later rounds...Really like Rambo from Georgia! Bostic ran good at the combine, and Kelce can really block! I call him the Hynocerous of Tight Ends
Great draft. If Mingo falls he would be incredible value. He'd upgrade our LB core, pass rush, and ability to defend the read option all in one pick. Okafor is not half the prospect. Obviously I like Ansah as well but he will be long gone. Mingo is a guy I could see fall some because of his dip in production this year. A lot of that I blame on LSUs inability to maximize talent.
Slays another prospect I'm starting to check out more and I like what I see. Travis Kelce would be a great pick at that point in the draft.
Solid draft. Don't know much of last two guys but scares me with no lineman
I like Mingo, Slay & Kelce.. solid mock
Good Draft. Wasnt as high on Mingo as some people but he is highly rated adn talent level is through the roof. If he falls i wouldnt be upset withe h gmen taking him. Love rambo's name not his biggest fan of his play. reports that he runs a 4.4-4.5 40 but looks slower than that on film. cant wait for his Pro day on the 21st to see what kinda athlete he is. Would rather see shamarko thomas out of Syracuse in the third. kids a monster (im bias being a Cuse fan)
besides that great Draft
Replace Mingo with Werner, thats probably more likely to happen. Also Darius Slay is overrated imo. Outside of that its good

Bacon-Wrapped Cream Cheese Jalapenos
What You Need:
1 lb. of bacon, slices cut in half
12 jalapeno peppers
1 package of cream cheese
What To Do:
1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees then wash and dry the peppers. Slice them in half and scoop out the seeds and white membranes. The seeds and membranes hold the spicy goodness so if you're not into spicy food, be sure to scrape them thoroughly.
2. Fill the peppers with cream cheese and wrap a half-slice of bacon around each one. I used a toothpick to hold them together while baking.
3. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper (or foil) and place a wire rack on top. This helps the bacon fat drain as it cooks. If you don't have wire racks, you can place the peppers directly onto the parchment paper. The bacon will just be extra greasy (and maybe not as crisp).
4. Bake for about 20-30 minutes until the bacon reaches your desired crispness. I like mine extra-crispy so I left it in the full 30 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes then enjoy!

Police shooting leaves one man dead, two female officers injured
Witnesses say man tried to run them down with a pickup truck
VENTURA, Calif. - One man is dead and two female officers are injured following an incident at Motel 6 on Harbor Boulevard in Ventura Thursday night.
Ventura police say two investigations are underway: one to find out what led up to the shooting and the other to determine whether lethal force was justified.
The Ventura County District Attorney's Office is taking part in the probe.
Assistant Chief David Wilson said it all started when they got a call about a man causing a disturbance. The officers with 10 years of experience each were nearby.
When they tried to calm the man down, witnesses say he jumped in a pickup truck with Washington plates and tried to run them down. Wilson said one officer was run over, the other was struck.
Motel guests said he also crashed into other cars at the motel.
They saw him slumped over in the driver's seat, where he was pronounced dead.
The officers were taken to the designated trauma center at the Ventura County Medical Center.
One of them was released, the other is being treated for more serious injuries.
The medical examiner won't release the dead man's name until an autopsy is completed on Saturday morning.19339344

Obama caves to Iran on captured Quds forces in Iraq
posted at 9:36 am on July 9, 2009 by Ed Morrissey
In January 2007, the US captured five Iranians providing assistance to the Shi'ite extremists in the south of Iran killing US soldiers. The Bush administration identified the five as members of the Quds Force, an elite unit within the Revolutionary Guard, tasked with fomenting terrorism and undermining the US in Iraq. The BBC reports today that the Obama administration has released them today to the Iraqis as a means of allowing them to go free:
Five Iranian officials held by the US military in Iraq since January 2007 have been freed, according to Iranian state media.
Tehran's ambassador to Baghdad was quoted as saying US forces had handed the five, whom he said were diplomats, to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Maliki.
Hassan Kazemi-Qomi said they would soon be taken to the Iranian embassy.
US forces seized the five in the Kurdish city of Irbil on suspicion of arming and funding Shia militias.
Why do this now? Obviously, it's appeasement. The Obama administration wants talks with the Iranian mullahs so badly that he's not only willing to meet with them unconditionally, he's now fulfilling their conditions to get direct talks. The Iranians had made this an issue every time the subject of direct talks arose.
Normally in these transactions, both sides give. Granted, we have only heard the crowing of the Iranian regime, so we may have received something in return. Did the Iranians pull their infiltrators out of Iraq? Did they at least apologize for the deaths of hundreds of our troops at the hands of Iranians and Iranian-supplied weapons? Did they even pledge to stop at all?
Or did we just cough them up for Obama's naïve flowers-and-unicorns fantasy that the only reason the Iranians want nukes is because the US has been big meanies to them?
I suspect that it's the latter.

1 thing from these playoffs Ive learned is how great is Marc Gasol is. I never really watch him every other day like this.This guy on Twitter trying to tell me Chandler is better still. Chandler is a better defender outside the paint , id say they are even inside the paint. On offense its not even close. U can run your offense through Gasol because of how great of a passer is he is. Plus he has a back to the basket game, Chandlers offensive game is stand under the basket and dunk it.If we had Gasol instead of Chandler it wouldnt be 3-1 right now,
If JR Smith doesnt have at least a passable game tonight I dont see how he will be brought back.
What lineup would u go
Shump is done. Cant put him out there playing hurt like that
I think Kidd may very well retire and I believe it or not I do believe he is tradeable still.We wouldnt get anything back besides a 2nd round pick but we could trade him. Even as streaky as JR is u have to resign him. if u dont resign him then what, its not like u can get a better player to replace him with.The problem I see is that he will want more then 2 years and i dont want to give him more then 2 years after these playoffs. I want a clear slate in 2015. I would resign Melo but only if he takes the money he is getting now. Im not giving Carmelo a Kobe 30 million dollar a year deal extension no fing way.With the way the new salary cap rules are it would be impossible to build a team around that unless the player is Lebron James
So do the Knicks nut up tonight or laydown?
Knicks are now in desperation mode. They need to win this game to at least salvage some pride. You can see it in IND faces that they just know in their mind they're the better team,. It's time to change that.
- Knicks need to keep larger line-ups out there utilizing Copeland and Stat more. Kidd is an all-time great but this match-up just does not work for him and his legs look tired as well.
Starters: Chandler, Melo, Cope, Shump, Felton - Shump guards George, Cope on Stevenson.
Rotate Martin in the chandler, Stat for Melo or Cope, Smith for Shump and Prigs for Felton.
No need to put Novak in there when Cope is a good 3pt shooter and also brings additional dimensions offensively.
This line-up ensures you always have at least one dribble penetrator on the floor, and at least 3 good 3pt shooters.
All Hail The New York Giants!!
i'd rather start prigs because when he doesn't start he gets no minutes. also the offense got off to slow starts most of the year until pablo was inserted into the starting lineup.
What i'd be afraid of is the knicks playing well tonight, and as usual, coming out in Indy thinking they've accomplished something and laying a dud..

New London — Richard Foye found himself back in familiar territory this week. Sitting in the same office he occupied more than a decade ago, the city native reflected on the path that led him back to the helm of New London Public Schools.
"Certainly two months ago it would have been hard to imagine a scenario where I would come out of retirement and be sitting back in this office," Foye, 61, said Monday.
On Wednesday evening, the Board of Education voted unanimously to make Foye the district's interim superintendent through the end of October. He will be paid $39,512 - a prorated amount based on an annual salary of $158,050.
"I'm enthusiastic about this," board member Mirna Martinez said. "Mr. Foye was my principal when I first came to New London and went to Bennie Dover."
In an interview Monday, Foye, a New London High School graduate who later served eight years as principal of Bennie Dover Jackson Middle School, said he views his role as interim superintendent as having three major components: ensure a smooth opening of the new school year, calm any choppy waters within the district administration and then prepare the school system for an eventual transition to a permanent superintendent.
"There are certainly many positive things in the system to build on, and in the interim role, my job is to make sure the district continues to move forward with positive steps," Foye said.
Foye has served as interim superintendent in New London once before, after controversial Superintendent Julian Stafford abruptly departed in 2003. Foye was a candidate for the permanent job, but the Board of Education offered the job to Christopher Clouet, who was superintendent of the Thomaston school district at the time.
Shortly thereafter, Foye left the district for the job of headmaster/superintendent at Woodstock Academy. He held that post until he retired in 2009.
Foye will lead the school system while the Board of Education and state education officials await the results of an investigation into the background and academic record of Terrence P. Carter, whom the board unanimously chose as its next superintendent in June.
Before the board ratified Carter's contract, news reports revealed that Carter may have been misrepresenting himself as having a Ph.D. for more than five years before he completed his doctoral studies. Subsequent reports indicated similarities between Carter's job application and writings previously published by others.
The board's investigation is expected to be complete in about two weeks.
"Any turmoil that might be in the newspaper or in the political world, my job is to make sure that those things don't affect the students," he said. "If there is a sense of stability and a sense that the administration has things under control and we're moving forward, that helps morale of the teachers, which helps delivery of the curriculum, and in the end our focus is first and foremost to the students, what we're providing them, and their achievement."
During an executive session intended to discuss what to do about Carter, the Board of Education asked state-appointed Special Master Steven J. Adamowski to recruit Foye to serve as interim superintendent, Adamowski said last week.
Foye said he was following the Carter situation and later met with Adamowski to discuss the job. After consulting with his wife of 33 years, Foye decided to come out of retirement to run the district once more.
"As things unfolded, it seemed clear that I could serve a useful purpose to the students of our city, and I have always loved the students of our city, the people who teach them and all the folks who support them," Foye said. "In the end it was the right thing to do to help out the city and help out the students."
Because he is retired through the state's Teachers' Retirement Board, Foye is limited in how long he could serve as a superintendent and how much he could earn in salary.
But since he was named acting superintendent last week, friends and neighbors at the post office, at CVS and around the city have had one question on their lips: Would Foye accept the permanent superintendent's position if it were offered to him?
"I said I would do it for 90 days," he said. "And I will leave it at that."
