If Mario is Nintendo's Mickey Mouse then surely Kirby is its Goofy; he's a distinctive second banana with a history and appeal that's all his own, but still a character that's been slow to break through to true icon status. Unpredictable, insatiable and adorable, Kirby's a pink puffball with a number of amazing titles under his belt, but sadly is likely better known to modern gamers primarily as everyone's
second third choice in Smash Bros.
Thankfully, as the Wii's first-party offerings trickle to a halt, he gets the royal treatment in Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition. Retailing for $40, it celebrates 20 years of floating, eating and transforming by compiling six classic Kirby games on a single disc. It then ups the ante with tons of supplemental material that help put the franchise into proper perspective. Continue Reading "The (Other) Hunger Games: Kirby's Dream Collection for Nintendo Wii" »


text: I got a catalog from this outfit out of Randolph Wisconsin. Has anyone used them? I see some interesting cultivars but would like some feedback from anyone who has bought their plants. Thanks in advance. I am smitten with the idea of a fruit bearing shrub called the Honeyberry. Supposed to be a blueberry flavored member of honeysuckle family. Additionally, has anyone grown lingonberries?

i had mentioned in another thread that i have one of my twelve hives in the home yard that has begun brooding in earnest. i think it is because they are running out of winter bees a little sooner than the rest.
as a result they have gone through their one medium of stores (located above their single deep brood chamber) a little faster than the rest. the medium is not empty yet, but very light.
turns out i had a pint of mostly sourwood honey (with a little domino think) that was given to me by a fellow beekeeper last summer. it had crystalized to almost solid in consistancy, but i warmed it back to liquid and attached it to a quail waterer.
this feeder was placed on top and inside an empty box yesterday (we reached mid fifties yesterday, which was warm enough for my bees to break cluster, and there was some cleansing flights taking place).
were getting down below freezing at night, and when i checked the feeder this morning, i discovered that they had taken about half of that pint of honey. the problem was that the honey was now cold and hard as a rock.
i decided they needed a patty, and this is how i prepared it.
in a bowl, i mixed:
the remaining half pint of honey (after rewarming it again)
i rinsed the pint honey jar with little hot water and added that water to the bowl
i put about a quarter pint (maybe less) of powdered pollen sub (mann lake ultra bee, 60% crude protein)
i then added about a half pint of dry sugar, a little at a time, and enough to make a thick but moist paste.
the patty mix was spooned into upside down plastic cool whip lids, about four inched in diameter, and place above the cluster in the empty box, (pushed to the corners).
the feed ended up looking, smelling, and tasting like a cross between baby food and raw cookie dough. i have enough from that small batch to keep them replenished for a while.
it i get a warm enough day, i'll do a more in depth inspection, and if all looks good, i'll rob a medium frame or two of honey from my heaviest hives to give to this one.

The arena, which was awarded the Massey Medal for architecture, was designed by Saskatchewan architect Joseph Pettick and Vancouver structural engineer J.L. Miller to replace an existing arena destroyed by fire.
The building was designed to cut construction costs by eliminating interior supports. Instead, the roof was supported by a series of two-inch cables suspended from 30-foot concrete A-frames forming the walls.
The curved suspension ceiling spanned 192 feet and was covered by steel decking and a layer of concrete ballast.
The roof descended to within 12 feet of the surface of centre ice.
Measuring 214 feet long, the stadium could seat an audience of 2,750, who would theoretically enjoy an unimpeded view of the surface below.
"I played junior hockey there and when you were in the top seats you could only see to the glass on the boards," said Bill Babey, project manager for SCR Developments, the company responsible for redeveloping the site.
"The seats were smaller than normal and you didn't have a lot of leg room. It was a weird structure."
The building opened in September 1959 with a performance by Louis Armstrong. It remained the home of the junior hockey Moose Jaw Warriors until last year, when it became clear that maintaining the decaying arena was becoming too expensive.
"The maintenance man told me that when the Warriors were in the playoffs last year he lived in fear that the temperature outside would warm up," he said.
"The roof leaked and when it did, it would drip in a straight line and freeze an inch-and-a-half thick in front of the net."
The facility was offered up to private investors, but there were no takers who agreed to preserve the building.
Plans for the site include new retail facilities that replicate some of the design features of the arena.
SCR sub-contracted the demolition to Silverado Demolition & Excavating of Saskatoon. The environmental decommissioning of the building was relatively uncomplicated, said Babey, because the city had already removed most of the asbestos insulation when the building's mechanical systems were replaced 10 years earlier.
Initial plans for demolition included implosion, but insurance proved too costly.
"We also looked at cutting the suspension cables, and six or seven other ways to bring it down," said Babey.
"We finally decided to hammer away at the structure at the bottom with excavators outfitted with jackhammers so we could squash the integrity of the structure and let it fall into itself."
Structural demolition began in August before a large crowd of local residents and TV cameras.
"Some of them seemed to believe that the building was going to come down in an hour," he said.
"The guy on the tractor asked me, 'what do they think is going to happen?' We thought we had to give them something, so we poked the concrete with the excavator and it goes 'tink' and a chunk of concrete falls out and goes 'thonk." It was a real anti-climax."
As demolition proceeded, crews encountered massive rebar two inches in diameter.
"The columns were a couple of feet thick and six feet deep, so when we started we thought it would be painful to bring them down," said Babey.
"But at more than 50 years of age, they just started to crumble."
He said that crews attempted to save lengths of cable to hand out as souvenirs, but that proved impossible after the cables were cut.
"They just frayed into a million pieces, so all the memories we could offer were chunks of blue cinder block," he said.
All told, 15,000 cubic yards of concrete were crushed for re-use.
The demolition was substantially completed in mid-November, as crews prepared to apply engineered backfill.
Babey recorded the entire demolition process on CCTV camera, inadvertently nabbing a thief on the first day the camera was installed.
"Someone broke into the building and stole the demolition contractor's generators," he said.
"He parked his van right up to the camera with his licence plate front and centre, so we got them back."

Tech Watch: Microsoft Surface Tablet
We check out Microsoft's flashy debut into the tablet market and why you should care about it.
Since the debut of Apple's mega-seller iPad, now in its third generation, technology manufacturers have tried again and again to win some of the spotlight from their beautifully designed aluminum and glass competitor. Despite software backing with Google's Android platform to rival Apple's iOS, we've seen a string of mediocre launches that can fundamentally do the job but can't capture that "cool and hip" element that Apple has pioneered with its products.
While many thought former smartphone giant RIM, creator of the Blackberry, could make a dent in the market, consumers were utterly disappointed by a similarly priced unit that lacked 3G functionality at launch; despite promises one would follow, a revised version hasn't been seen on the horizon. In fact, RIM had to resort to slashing prices to well below market value last fall in order to clear stock from its warehouses, where it sat collecting dust.
While recent entrants to the market, the so-called e-reader/tablet hybrids such as Amazon's Kindle Fire and Kobo's VOX, planned to make the leap in order to capture the low-cost market, not one company has been able to challenge Apple's dominance in the tablet market. But that, quite possibly, is about to change.
Arch-rival and software giant Microsoft took an unprecedented step yesterday and pulled a move right out of Apple's marketing book to introduce their first tablet, known as the Surface.
The tactics included top-secret media invitations, an undisclosed location and virtually no information about what journalists were to be shown, just a casual, "This will be a major Microsoft announcement — you will not want to miss it." Did it work? We would definitely reckon so, but it presents a number of pertinent questions and situations.
The most important fact that needs to be understood is that this really is an unusual path for the company to take. While most consumers remember the "I'm a Mac and you're a PC" ads, many have assumed that anytime "PC" is mentioned, it is synonymous with Microsoft. While the Windows software maker has been an industry leader, it makes a point of not releasing its own branded hardware (XBOX 360 excepted), which keeps its third-party manufacturer partners happy and its bank account brimming.
While the Surface is to run off Microsoft's highly anticipated Windows 8 platform, being released this fall, a number of its third-party partners will also be releasing tablets using the software. Cue the awkwardness in that boardroom.
By entering the hardware game, Microsoft not only risks its own business relationships but is putting its reputation on the line as well (well, since Vista, that is). It will be interesting to see how it pans out on that front.
The slickly designed Surface measures 10.6" across its HD screen, weighs in at an easy 903 grams and is configurable with either 64 or 128 GB of presumably flash memory. Input-wise, the device has a microSDXC slot, USB 3.0 and a Mini DisplayPort for video.
The most innovative aspect of the Surface, however, lies in the cover, which doubles as a keyboard. Combined with the built-in vertical stand, you've got yourself a decent-sized laptop. This functionality, along with the Microsoft Office Suite onboard, makes the Surface a prime candidate for the business crowd as opposed to the iPad-skewed entertainment crowd. However, we think this device has the potential to lure that audience away.
The biggest questions still remaining are whether the Surface will contain 3G/4G/LTE capabilities, what the crucial battery life will be like, and the obvious details of price and availability. Seeing the cautious positive reaction to this tablet so far, we can imagine the bigwigs at Microsoft will capitalize on this in time for a fall/holiday release.
In the meantime, watch the official site for details and check out the absolutely stunning launch video below:

Nostalgia Electrics™ Mini Chocolate Fondue Fountain
Turn any get-together into a gala with the Nostalgia Electrics™ CFF-552 Mini Chocolate Fondue Fountain (CFF-965). The auger-style fountain features a two-tier tower and can hold about 4 pounds of chocolate or any other free-flowing sauce. Just pour melted chocolate into the pre-heated base and switch on the motor; the chocolate travels up the tower then gently flows over each tier, creating cascading curtains of creamy chocolate for dipping marshmallows, fruit, crackers and anything else your taste buds can handle.
To get the party started, simply pre-heat for around five minutes. In the meantime, melt your fondue chocolate in either a double burner or in the microwave (being extra careful not to burn the chocolate). Then simply turn the motor on, pour the chocolate into the bowl basin and watch the magic begin.
Easy to Disassemble Design:The stainless-steel upper section detaches from the rest of the unit making the clean-up very simple and quick. Breaking the unit down into two parts is also handy during storage and transportation
Chocolate Capacity:The heated stainless-steel base holds about 2 pounds of liquid. The fountain can be used for chocolate or other heated sauces such as cheese and butterscotch as long as the sauce has a creamy consistency

When You Walk Do You Feel Like You Are Dancing?
A young man studying at drama school in NYC in the early 70's receives a free ticket to a concert given by the Atlantic City Steel Pier Band. He goes, and finds himself the youngest person there. He observes his fellow concertgoers: most of them are much older, and they are arriving in taxis and cars, being helped down the aisles, using canes and walkers—unable to walk unassisted. As the band begins to play music of the 30's and 40's, he sees throughout the audience heads nodding in time, then shoulders beginning to keep the beat as well. Soon, feet are tapping, bodies swaying. By intermission, those same people who could not walk unassisted discard their walkers and canes and are up and dancing together in the aisles. It is as if they have rediscovered their youth. What could have caused this extraordinary reversal? Is it, as many poets and philosophers have noted, the "power of music"? Or is there something else happening? How does a body, which feels creaky and stiff with age and rheumatism, suddenly find the springing step of youth? The answer, it turns out, can be found in the body's natural energy sources.

UK car production hit a four-year high last year as car exports reached a new record, defying the deep slump in European vehicle sales, research shows.
British factories built 1.46 million cars last year, of which 1.21 million were exported, said the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. Production was up 9 per cent and exports by 8 per cent, even though car sales in the EU hit a 19-year low.
About half of Britain's exports go outside Europe, where strong demand from countries such as China, Russia and America helped to offset the weakness on the Continent.
"The outlook for this year remains positive, with demand in many faster-growing global markets offsetting the continued weaknesses in European economies," the society said.
But across the channel, things aren't looking as rosy.
European car sales plunged in 2012 as the debt crisis took a heavy toll on vehicle demand.
The number of cars sold in the EU fell by 8.2 per cent to 12.05 million vehicles last year, the lowest since 1993.
Over-indebted banks refused to lend to consumers who are strapped for cash as severe austerity measures pushed joblessness to a record high of 12 per cent.
Sales in December were hit particularly hard, falling by 16.3 per cent, said the European Automotive Association.
For the year, the UK fared much better than Europe, with sales rising 5.3 per cent. By contrast, sales in Germany declined 2.9 per cent, while Spain dived 13.4 per cent, France 13.9 per cent and Italy 19.9 per cent.

Earlier this year, the company announced that it would be spinning off its PC division and exiting the tablet and smartphone markets (i.e. webOS). HP later reversed course on its planned PC unit spinoff, but has continued to weigh its options for webOS amid the discontinuation of its mobile hardware effort.
Despite making webOS open source, there's no words on if HP will make any webOS based mobile hardware.

In spite of the bad press it's received, more than a few consumers have been won over by Microsoft's Windows 8, but there's just one major sticking point – it remains almost completely and utterly devoid of apps, especially the good ones.
Or at least, that was the situation, until today.
Now, thanks to those wonderful guys at BlueStacks, Windows 8 users have just been gifted an additional 750,000 apps or so, thanks to the release of its Apps Player for Windows 8.
BlueStacks has been around for a while, first coming to our attention almost two years ago when it released its Apps Player for Windows 7, and for devotees of the original software this latest release has been a long time coming.
The latest version of the software has been especially optimized for Microsoft's Surface Pro tablet, but in actual fact seems to run perfectly well on any Windows 8 device – I tested it out on a Lenovo Twist – with zero compatibility issues encountered so far. Simply head to the download page here, download the software and within five minutes you'll be happily bashing away at the likes of Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja on your newly converted, Android-esque Windows 8 device.
Rosen Sharma, CEO of BlueStacks, offered these comments on the new App Player:
"We've had our users asking for a Win8 version for a long time. Now that it's finally available on our website we're looking forward to getting feedback and building on the experience. The number of mobile apps being written overall is expanding exponentially and Microsoft has not added apps to the handful it has. Our goal is to get people more value out of their Surface Pro and Win8 devices."
No doubt Windows 8 users will warmly embrace BlueStacks new Android emulator, but one can't help wondering if this is good news for Microsoft in the long run. The problem is that in effect, all BlueStacks is doing is to plaster over the gaps in Microsoft's miserably depleted apps eco-system, and such a move is hardly going to help it improve. Micorsoft needs to be nurturing relationships with developers and encouraging them to build apps for its own platform – but the fact that BlueStacks app player exists means that there's less incentive for developers to bother with Windows 8, when they can focus on the more lucrative Android and iOS markets, safe in the knowledge that Windows users will get access to them anyway.
Unfortunately for Microsoft, it looks like BlueStacks is going all out to target Windows 8. The company recently announced a deal with Lenovo which will see its app player bundled with all Ideapad computers. For Microsoft, this is only serves to highlight their failure at creating a decent app eco-system at a time when it really needs to be seen standing on its own two feet.

I'm not 100% sure what you're doing but when you have polynomial terms
like this collinearity is inevitable. Before doing anything odd,
center x1 and then compute x1^2, and regress on the centered
variables. (You may want to rescale x1 as well but centering does the
work.) This will give you a statistically equivalent model that breaks
the collinearity between x1 and x1^2.
Usually though you're not interpreting x1 terms directly anyhow, so
whether x1 or x1^2 is statistically significant individually is
irrelevant. Certainly the linear term for x1 is irrelevant if the term
for x1^2 is significant. You can test for x1 effects as a block using

The Can't Nots released their debut EP, Applesauce, earlier this year and quickly racked up some positive press around these parts, and garnered a Best Breakthrough Act nomination in our 2011 Best Music Poll. The Providence-via-Lincoln trio of guitarist Bobby Brierly, drummer Gary Wilkinson and his sister, vocalist Naomi, formed just over a year ago, and the band credits their "interlocking personalities" as a vital factor toward kicking out genre-free, guitar-driven jams.
"We've always gotten along pretty well growing up," Gary said of his older sis Naomi when we caught up earlier this week. "We come from an artistic family, we have similar tastes in music and musical influences, so it's easy for us to communicate our ideas to each other."
The band's bio cites influences ranging from Dusty Springfield and Talking Heads to the White Stripes and Modest Mouse. Their eclectic grooves have led them to share the stage with disparate acts, from the sweet-sounding Sugar Honey Iced Tea to modern-rockers Mother of Dylan; last month the trio played a benefit show at Diamond Hill State Park in Cumberland supporting homeless veterans.
Applesauce was recorded at Power House Studios in the woods of Lunenburg, Massachusetts, and was produced and engineered by Michael Lamantia of Makeupbreakup. Both bands previously shared a practice space in Olneyville, and Lamantia recommended Power House, home to the past two MUBU albums, for their debut recording. The Can't Nots recently decided to give the EP away free on their website (though the $3 requested donation is money well spent) and intend to build upon their recent gigs, with plans to eventually cut their first full-length album.
I asked Mikey Lams for a one-liner regarding the Can't Nots' sound:
"They kind of sound like if the Yeah Yeah Yeahs smoked a ton more weed," he offered.
Speaking of that trio, I came across some web rumors about the Can't Nots performing a set as the YYYs for their upcoming Halloween weekend show at the PVD Social Club.
"That's an idea we've been kicking around, but nothing set in stone yet," Gary said.
Hot damn, it'd be fun to catch Naomi Wilkinson channeling her inner Karen O, which is easily envisioned when cueing up the EP's title track, as well as "Around or Away" and "The Gray," which steadily builds with a jazzy slow burn and a subtle reggae sway. The closing track on Applesauce, "Go," is a personal favorite, and perhaps a teaser as to what comes next. It's a fun and funky foot-stomper, with Brierly's squawking guitar riff cruising beneath Naomi's howling hook (her voice is pretty darn lovely). Live renditions of unreleased tracks are streaming on YouTube, including "Side by Side," "Modest Oasis," and "The Pudding."
Applesauce received a nice plug in this month's Performer magazine, though I found it odd that the term "grunge" popped up more than once while trying to ID the Can't Nots, noting their "sonic identity of garage rock" and referring to the band's debut as "deliberately carving out some interesting genre-shucking territory, or simply struggling to nail down an identity." I would lean toward the former, and asked Gary Wilkinson what to make of the band's initial motives.

'Interior of the Horse Armoury', anon engraving, The Penny Magazine, 1836 © Royal Armouries 2013
In the spring of 1827 the Reverend John Skinner came to London to attend to various personal matters, not least to secure a cadetship with the East India Company for his son, Joseph. As a committed antiquarian, however, Skinner combined personal business with a number of visits to the Society of Antiquaries, the British Museum, the India House Museum, and the British Gallery on Pall Mall. Also on his list of places to see was the Tower of London. Yet Skinner went away less than pleased.
'We then went to the Tower, and saw everything that is shewn, which costs about 14s; a most shameful imposition. At the exhibition of works of individuals, it is very fair they should be remembered, for the trouble and expence they have been put to in order to bring their work to perfection; but when there is a public exhibition of things, for which the public, either directly or indirectly has paid, and the persons in attendance have already been paid, by the salaries they receive; it seems to be a disgraceful imposition, and must draw down the most serious animadversions of foreigners more especially whose exhibitions are conducted on such liberal principles…'
Skinner did not mention the recent rearrangement by Samuel Meyrick although it is unlikely that he had been unaware that the latter had undertaken the work to modernize the Tower Armouries exhibitions. Meyrick's redisplay of the Tower's collections in the New Horse Armoury had made little impact on Skinner it seems. Meyrick had also, of course, been concerned about the system of charging and had said so to the Principal Storekeeper, Mark Singleton, in about 1821; and it was cost, in the end, that mattered even to an antiquarian like Skinner.

Just ask yourself this... since he's been vying (for years, and that is well documented) for a head coaching position than why has not a single team offered him a job? Coordinators are free game every single year. The Gilbride enthusiasts always bring up the point he's won two super bowls. So if he's so accomplished why does he not appeal to any football team in the collegiate or NFL level.
Gilbride supporters also bring up that our offense is generally always tops in the league... blah blah blah
Don't you think with a top QB in Eli and the superior talent surrounding him that we should always have top offense no matter who the OC is?
Gilbride is a good to average OC. He's nothing more, nothing less and we can absolutely do better and also do worse.
I'd love the opportunity to allow someone to do better.
He's here for at least another season so this is the last Gilbride topic I will make, scouts honor ... and we can win despite him.

Cof Cof - To the Future (new free EP!)
June of 2008 was a great month, in that this was my first introduction to Spanish electropop duo, Cof Cof. Now with not having writ about these kids for precisely one year, one could only assume that we'd lost all interest. NOT the case. Quite the opposite in fact, and today, we've got the reason why. Mmm hmmm, we're a happy beast this morning.
Here's the gets...last April, Cof Cof got us all sorts of ready for summer with a free LP, Safari. With their signature brush of happy, shiny tunes, like T-Shirt and Cell Phone, it was an oft-repeated "go to" for a number of beastly parties and backyard throw-downs. This year, much like last, we're dosed with a new EP from the pair. To the Future is 3 tracks of awesome new material, which sees Ana and Alex get a tiny bit deeper and darker, yet still managing to get hands clapping with these equally special slices of pop.
My suggestion is to head here and, yes, while you can download it for free, why not throw 'em a few euros? I mean, they've given us a ton for the cost of nothing, so hook them up.
While we're at it though, let's toss you our favorite cut from the EP. Jungle of Love is like Animotion's Obsession meets the Beverly Hills Cop theme song...basically ensuring we'll be spinning this in heavy rotation all year long.

(Spanish Doll)Bridgette B is a blonde bombshell who was born in Barcelona, Spain and moved to the United States in 2004. She worked nights as a stripper during her college days but that didn't distract her from earning her Bachelors degree. After trying her hand at being a receptionist she soon reconnected with her adult entertainment contacts and shortly afterwards began working in hardcore porn movies. One of her first appearances was in the film "Brand New Faces 10" from Vivid Video. This series specializes in finding new pornstars and Bridgette signed a certificate in her scene saying that this is her first porn filming ever. She is being interviewed and is teasing the camera while she gets naked. Marco Banderas joins and sucks on her tits and licks her pussy too. After she sucks on his dick they fuck in a few positions before he ejaculates on her face and into her mouth. Another one of Bridgette's early movies was called "Down Your Throat 6" from Smash Pictures. This series is all about blowjobs and facial cumshots and Ms. B doesn't disappoint in those departments. Sucking on Richard Kline's dick after stripping out of her sexy pink bikini, she strokes him until he gives her a big facial cumshot. She licks up every drop and sucks him dry before it's all over. Bridgette is a pornstar who considers herself kind of a dorky girl and says she's been that way since she was in school. She enjoys girly girl things and right in line with that is her love of the color pink. She recalls seeing a beautiful sunset that made the sky pink and orange and ever since then those have been her favorite colors. When it comes to her sex life she has never had sex on an airplane but would like to. Also referring to her personal sex life she shares that she loves it when her man cums inside of her pussy. Sexy blonde Bridgette B is still making porn movies and has more than 210 films to date. She keeps in touch with porn lovers through her Twitter account who follow her in numbers exceeding 102,000. She is a recent AVN Unsung Starlet of the Year award winner which she received at the 2012 awards show. Porn fans worldwide are glad to know that she has no retirement plans at this time.

I visited China for a research project on the ivory trade in January. It took two years of groundwork first. China is not an easy place to get data from - you just can't drop in and start investigating.
And, rather than gathering rumours and stories from the fringes of the legal market, which seems to be the case in many international media reports, my colleague and I got access to other parts of the supply chain. The evidence began pointing away from the legal market as a catalyst for the illegal trade of ivory.
I'm a wildlife economist, but first a conservationist. Like all conservationists, I'm extremely concerned at the rate at which elephants are being poached in Africa, but it concerns me when I see inaccurate stories. You can't fight the black market trade in wildlife unless you understand how it operates - and the legal ivory trade is not the right place to focus conservation efforts.
In a major ivory factory in Beijing, we looked at the workstations. There were 16 in all. In 1990, before the CITES ban on international ivory sales, the factory had 800 staff, but the ban decimated the legal ivory carving industry in China.
China legally purchased 62 tonnes from the existing ivory stockpile in 2008, and by that year there were only eight staff and one master carver left. Staff levels have since expanded to 16. Most were technicians in their third year of training. Depending on their complexity, pieces would take anywhere between two months and two years to complete.
By weight, about 90 per cent of the registered ivory is made into unique pieces with specific photo-IDs. The scope of the problem of resale of small generic pieces is unknown, but the legal trade is simply unable to absorb the tonnes of ivory being smuggled from Africa. The registration system tracks raw ivory through to the final product and cross-checks each stage for weight gains. Factories and shops are inspected regularly and sometimes covertly, several times a year.
Ivory prices depend on many variables, such as size and grade, the quality of the carving and the reputation of the carver. It's impossible to detect claimed dramatic price rises for ivory. Prices are what we describe as very noisy. None of the suppliers we interviewed expect overall prices to rise. Other goods, like jade, are preferred for investment over ivory as they're showing attractive price increases.
The legal ivory system in China is a small industry, with a productive output strongly limited by the lack of qualified carvers. It's subject to monitoring and inspections that make laundering risky. It's not a competitive market, as entry is restricted and firm numbers are low. This suits the incumbent firms as it inflates their prices and their profits.
They have no enthusiasm to expand output as this would cause prices to drop. The small size of the industry and the slow output cycle means they cannot absorb large volumes of ivory.
The legal market caters to a clientele of informed, repeat customers after quality pieces, which distinguishes it from the illegal market where we saw generally cruder and smaller carvings which could be pumped out by less skilled carvers, items of less value to serious collectors.
The ivory sale to China in 2008 put money back into elephant conservation in the four southern African countries. On-going trade may be sustained by natural deaths and culls in Africa. The legal market is insulated from the illegal market at several levels. Blaming the legal trade for elephant poaching is simplistic, wrong and a threat to the conservation gains the industry has yielded. It is also a perverse distraction because we need to focus on the real causes of poaching.

HealthWatch:Woman's Best Friend: Sniffing out Ovarian Cancer
Woman's Best Friend: Sniffing out Ovarian Cancer
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women in the U.S. The silent killer is often diagnosed too late and will kill 14,000 this year. That's where specially trained dogs could come in.
Ohlin, McBaine, and Tsunami are all dogs with different personalities, but they share one special purpose.
"Lifesavers, these dogs are saving lives," Cindy Otto, DVM, PhD, Director, Penn Vet Working Dog Center, told Ivanhoe.
Dr. Otto is leading research at Penn Vet Working Dog Center, teaching canines to sniff out ovarian cancer-a disease with no standard early detection test.
"It is a silent killer and so many women are not diagnosed until it's too late," Dr. Otto said.
Each cancer has its own odor. Dr. Otto says a dog's keen sense of smell could detect it.
"They are about 1,000 to 10,000 times better than we are at detecting any kind of odors," Dr. Otto explained.
So far the dogs have been introduced to the smell of the cancer tissue. Researchers place three bowls on the ground and one of bowls has the odor. The dogs are trained to sit when they find it.
The ultimate goal is to use the dogs to help build a machine to detect the odor or biomarker, and create a blood test to catch ovarian cancer early.
"They are training the machines so that the machines can then do millions of samples at a much lower cost, so that we don't have any woman who can't get this kind of screening, which is so important," Dr. Otto said.
The five-year survival rate for ovarian cancer is 44 percent. When found early it jumps to 92 percent.
All of the dogs at the center come from strong family lines with histories of hunting ability or detection work. These breeds have long noses and are used in the research because they have the largest surface area of olfactory receptors.
The program at Penn Vet Working Dog Center is supported by donation.
BACKGROUND: Ovarian cancer is a growth of abnormal malignant cells that begins in the ovaries. Ovarian tumors can be benign or malignant. Although abnormal, cells of benign tumors do not metastasize. Malignant cancer cells in the ovaries can metastasize in two ways: directly to other organs in the pelvis and abdomen, or through the bloodstream or lymph nodes to other parts of the body. The causes of ovarian cancer are unknown, but some theories exist. For example, genetic errors may occur because of damage from the normal monthly releases of an egg. Increased hormone levels before and during ovulation may stimulate the growth of abnormal cells. According to the American Cancer Society, the mortality rates for ovarian cancer have not improved in forty years since the "War on Cancer" was declared. (Source: www.ovariancancer.org)
WOMAN'S BEST FRIEND: When it comes to the sense of smell, dogs surpass the capacity of humans. Humans sniff out odors using about 350 different olfactory receptors, but canines use more than 1,000. They can even smell the volatile organic compounds or odorants altered in the earliest stages of ovarian cancer. Researchers at Penn Vet Working Dog Center the Department of Physics and Astronomy in the School of Arts & Sciences, the Division of Gynecologic Oncology in the Perelman School of Medicine, and the Monell Chemical Senses Center are working together to develop a new system of early cancer screening. "The idea behind the funded project is that, by combining information from dog studies, analytical chemistry, and nano sensor studies, we can make more rapid progress toward the goal of diagnosing ovarian and other cancers from their volatile signature," A. T. Charlie Johnson, a professor of physics and astronomy, was quoted as saying. Researchers hope to further develop their patented nanotube device to detect and spot odorants and other chemical compounds using single strands of DNA. When a strand of DNA is attached to the carbon nanotube, it takes on a complex and specif

Advice for a Network Security career plan
I love programming. I began with DOS/Basic in the mid-90s, and worked my way through: Pascal, C, Matlab, VBA, Fortran, and bash (linux basic), though I have only used VBA and bash in work as an engineer. So no IT experience and no Computer Science degree (actually its Physics but that is not helpful to me), though I am pursuing a Masters in IT with a Security emphasis. I understand computers very well with A+ certification, and I have heard recommendations about CISSP, Security+ (some question this one), Network+, and EC (Ethical Hacker). I understand the basics of malware and network mechanics with the different communication layers. I have a CEH review guide, a Hacking for dummies book, and an Operating Systems Security book which I am studying at the moment.
Now I need to understand what to do, so I can focus my efforts and make a difference. Certifications require experience, but the right jobs require certification and experience. What should I do and what kind of timetable am I looking at for each step? Thank you very much in advance.

A recent performance by Toronto's famous drag queen was nothing short of hate speech, racism, and violence. Yes, sitting in my chair, sinking in deep, and looking around to see the mix of applauding and blank stares I couldn't have interpreted this event as anything other than an act of violence.

Helping break the cycle of poverty
Jeff Henderson's mission to help others
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo - A veteran helping veterans and others in Southern Colorado is making a positive difference for them. Jeff Henderson is a Benefits and Outreach Support Coordinator at the Independence Center. He's been there for a little more than a year. Since that time he's put together two programs to help those who are chronically homeless or newly homeless. Jeff has helped more than 130 people break the cycle of homelessness and wade through the maze of programs to get them the benefits they deserve to stay off the street.
Jeff told me it's his mission to help others, "I decided to change this because I don't want people to be in poverty. I want them to rise above it." Jeff knows a thing or two about homelessness. He's a 19 year military veteran who retired after a training accident injury. Jeff came out of the service disabled and as he described it, "I found myself almost homeless, living off family and friends."
Stephen Darr is one of the men who Jeff has helped stay off the streets. Stephen suddenly lost his job, had his home foreclosed on and then was staying at a shelter wondering what to do next. Stephen told me that when he met Jeff, "He understood right from the beginning what I needed and the help I needed. I got my own apartment again. I get disability."
Jeff Henderson now wants to expand his programs to communities all over Southern Colorado. Jeff's life lesson for all of us can be simply put by him, "We take a lot of things for granted. We shouldn't because it could be taken away at a moments notice."
Jeff Henderson's caring spirit and providing hope to others is why he is our Wear Red Friday Hero. If you know someone who deserves to be nominated, go back to our homepage and the Wear Red section. You can nominate them, on that link.
