The New GirlMature
As we left the lockers from putting our books back Jake yelled "Penises" and attempted to sack-whack me, I hit him in the arm just as Kahdens gut rumbled so loudly I could hear it from 2 meters away. We all looked at him.
"I skipped breakfast. Jeez you guys!" Was his excuse. He had an excuse for anything and everything; I think he may have had a slightly larger brain capacity than me, because when I say everything, I mean everything. If he forgot to feed the chooks in the morning it was "my alarm didn't go off". If he forgot to feed them at night it was "I went to bed early, it was a big day". Fortunately for both the chooks and his hide, he always fed them at least once a day, even if the feeding times where somewhat sporadic.
As we walked into the cafeteria, the smell of plastic cheese and powdered mix 'n' heat potato overwhelmed my nostrils and I leant closer to Emma's hair to mask the smell.
"So glad I bought my own lunch today". Said Grace, the rest of us where stuck with the unbelievably cheap and bland cafeteria food.
And then something caught my eye.
As I saw her look at me, my heart nearly stopped. She had the deepest, brightest blue eyes, I had ever seen, not all washy and pale. Eww. But lush and they had such a power over me; I felt that if I looked to long into them, I would need a daily dose, like a drug. Her hair was the color of the evil night; it was so black it brought a new meaning to the word. Her hair was in extreme contrast with the palest, softest looking skin my eyes had ever had the pleasure of looking at, it wasn't hidden behind make-up applied with a bread knife, or badly fake tanned just natural and beautiful. Her ears looked as though she had borrowed them from a pixie; they had a slight tip to them and her nose followed suit, it was small and also had a certain soft sharpness that drew me in. Her lips bore a slight sheen and they held a lovely, endearing smile. She wore a tight dark green tank-top that accentuated her breasts and showed off her stomach. To keep her midriff visible she wore a short leather jacket, obviously not for keeping the Autumn cold out, a ruffled green mini-skirt with sheer stockings and dainty small black shoes. She was also wearing a polished silver necklace, magical, almost shimmering. It caught my attention more than anything else (…Yes lads, even her tits). It was somewhat peculiar, as was the matching ring and bracelet she was also wearing. All three depicted two snakes, one with sapphire eyes, and another with ruby. Both devouring each other. I wondered at the meaning of these, the gemstone colours could mean good vs. bad, the shape referring to the circle of life, or did she just think it looked awesome, like me?
As I was taking in the new girl, her mystical eyes, sexy figure and curious jewelry I realized she was staring back… As I took her amazing beauty in, and the fact she was looking at me I couldn't help but think to myself "You're in." My girlfriend awoke me from my captivation with a solid punch to the arm. I saw that I was like every other male in the room, allured and enchanted by her… Well to be honest... Overwhelming beauty.
I could tell that pretty much every other guy in the cafeteria would murder each other with their bare hands for a chance with her. They were all be wondering what she was wearing underneath her clothes, then they too woke up and had to admit the fact that they would have only a slight chance on the day Satan skated to work, so instead they merely hoped that she would give them a second glance, whether or not they had a girlfriend.

We've been doing a lot of backend improvements on Fan History. In the course of fixing things up, we've been looking at other fundamental issues to our going forward and excelling at our mission. One of the things that we realized was that we needed to make a switch in our copyright policy. We've chosen to go with Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 ("CC 3.0″). We feel that this will help us in several areas:
- Be able to use text contributions from other CC 2.0+ licensed projects. This includes Wikipedia, Wikia, and many, many more.
- Have a more secure legal position. The enforceability and legality of our current copyright is a big potential issue. This would solve that problem by using a recognized, legal copyright.
- Become future compatible. CC 3.0 will automatically upgrade to the latest version.
- Help attract new contributors from other projects. People expect a certain license type if they want to be involved. Our current one is discouraging to some people in the wiki community.
If you have any questions about what this switch will mean, please read the rational for this. If you made any contributions and object to this change, please comment on the page with refuse and we'll work with you to reach some sort of resolution.

MI Chamber of Commerce Sets Up Private Healthcare Exchange
The Michigan Chamber of Commerce will be launching a statewide private health insurance marketplace at the start of September.
Officials say it will help meet the growing demand from employers as they try to comply with the Affordable Care Act. The group directed interested parties to its YouTube video about the marketplace.
Barry Robinson, vice president of Chamber services and membership development, says beginning September 1, individuals and employers can work with their licensed insurance agent of choice and have a single source, multi-carrier insurance solution for comparing and accessing available medical, dental, vision and supplemental insurance plans.
According to the Chamber, the marketplace will also have calculators available to help determine federal subsidy eligibility and potential tax consequences for those failing to enroll in qualified plans.

1. Eat. A couple years ago a study revealed that one out of three single people would rather eat than have sex. And a different study showed 43% of Canadians would rather have BACON than sex.
2. Use a smartphone. In an American survey about things people can't live without, sex finished below smartphones.
3. Sleep. This is more for women. In one survey, 80% of them said they'd rather sleep than get busy.
4. Own a plasma TV. Almost half of men in the UK would give up sex for six months to get a 50-inch plasma TV.
5. Drink hot chocolate. There was one study where 70 percent of Irish women said they'd take a cup of hot chocolate over having sex.
6. Go solo. More than 40% of women say they like pleasuring themselves better than doing it with a partner.
7. Catch up on paperwork. Seems like you'd need to be a pretty terrible lover to lose out to a pile of paperwork. But in the UK, women said they prefer the paperwork.
8. Read a book. In the paperwork study, women also said they'd rather read a book than have sex.

Civic Holiday in 2017
In 2017 Civic Holiday is on Monday, August 7.
The Civic Holiday is celebrated on the first Monday of August and it's a public holiday in some provinces and territories. The civic holiday is not a statutory holiday.
It is known by many names in different provinces and municipalities.
It's called Regatta Day in Newfoundland, Saskatchewan Day in SK, British Columbia Day in BC, Natal Day in Nova Scotia and PEI, Simcoe Day in Toronto, New Brunswick Day in New Brunswick, Colonel By Day in Ottawa, Heritage Day in Alberta and Joseph Brant Day in Burlington, ON. It is called Benjamin Vaughan day in the City of Vaughan, Ontario.
The Civic Holiday is commonly referred to as the August long weekend. It is probably the busiest day on highways as tens of thousands of families go camping, to cottages etc this weekend.
If you can, take Friday off and leave for your holiday on Friday morning or Thursday night and come back Sunday morning or early afternoon to avoid mile-long traffic jams on Monday.
Correction sent in by a visitor: Civic Holiday is not called "Simcoe Day" everywhere in Ontario, only in Toronto. Each municipality that opts to declare the holiday can give it a unique name. It's called the "civic" holiday because it's the holiday that cities have authority to declare.
Back to the list of national holidays in Canada.
View all holidays in 2017.
What will you do on the civic holiday long weekend? What did you do last year? Do you have any good tips for others?
I spend the time with my family and have to be back early so I don't lose the income. The civic "holiday" (and I use the term loosely)should not be listed as a stat holiday if it not actually one. Also why are we not honouring our military on Remembrance day, it should be considered a stat holiday so those of us can be a part of their ceremonies with out losing income if we take the time off.
Unions get paid. Join a union shop or unionize your shop..
then do not declare Aug 1 as a holiday, since there is no pay involved.
What if you are willing and able to work but the company is closed for the day. Should they have to pay me? I never got paid and I never had a choice
Respectfully to the person posting life does not owe you a living, North Americans have been programmed to live to work, not work to live.
It's time the workers of this country threw off the shackles of capitalism and started demanding reasonable working conditions and holidays, and invested that extra time back into the family & community
No matter where or what are we working, if it's a regular full time job we all, should have
all the holidays - civic or stat. What are we 'second hand people , if we are not working for government or government related companies..?? I'm working for a health care company - office stuff has all the holidays and We- field stuff, just stat,this is completely unfair and demeaning .

Tree rings reveal extent of exposure to ionizing radiation in Scots pine Pinus sylvestris

Tree growth has been hypothesized to provide a reliable indicator of the state of the external environment. Elevated levels of background ionizing radiation may impair growth trajectories of trees by reducing the annual growth. Such effects of radiation may depend on the individual phenotype and interact with other environmental factors such as temperature and drought. We used standardized growth rates of 105 Scots pine Pinus sylvestris located near Chernobyl, Ukraine, varying in the level of background radiation by almost a factor 700. Mean growth rate was severely depressed and more variable in 1987–1989 and several other subsequent years, following the nuclear accident in April 1986 compared to the situation before 1986. The higher frequency of years with poor growth after 1986 was not caused by elevated temperature, drought or their interactions with background radiation. Elevated temperatures suppressed individual growth rates in particular years. Finally, the negative effects of radioactive contaminants were particularly pronounced in smaller trees. These findings suggest that radiation has suppressed growth rates of pines in Chernobyl, and that radiation interacts with other environmental factors and phenotypic traits of plants to influence their growth trajectories in complex ways.

The ownership structure of Unity Trust Bank – which provides loans to the Labour party – is to be overhauled as a result of the Co-operative Bank's 27% stake being put up for sale.
The trade unions that own the remaining 73% of Unity Trust have the right to buy any shares sold by the Co-op Bank, which is itself being overhauled under the new management team that led last year's £1.5bn rescue deal.
Set up in 1984, Unity Trust is best known for providing banking services to trade unions, charities and local authorities.
Graham Bennett, who chairs the Birmingham-based Unity Trust, said detailed discussions were underway to "reposition the bank as we approach our 30th anniversary".
"The Co-operative Bank has been a fantastic supporter of Unity Trust since it was first founded, however, the time is now right to review our structure as we begin the next chapter of Unity's development underpinned by our distinct approach to banking," said Bennett.
Co-op Bank is facing sweeping job cuts as its new chief executive Niall Bookers attempts to restore profitability following the capital shortfall which led to the rescue by its bond holders – led by US hedge funds – and resulted in the Co-op Group of supermarket, pharmacies and funeral homes ceding control of the bank. It was also hit by the scandal surrounding its former chairman Paul Flowers who is alleged to have bought illegal drugs.
Booker said: "The Co-operative Bank has been a proud supporter of Unity Trust over many years and we will work closely with them through this process, which fits with our own business plan to simplify the bank."

Published: 2013-06-05, by Peter Warrior.
Team Awesome is indeed a 2D sidescroller, but as soon as you start it you'll realize it has several strong points that make the difference. Not only characters are beautifully designed (pity that aren't customizable, though) but it constantly plays with camera angles in order to make it all more dynamic and eye-catching, even when this game is controlled by taps and long taps.
In every stage you have to accomplished different missions and collect coins to buy new characters and upgrades. In your path, you can get Awesomium to fill your life bar, but the most important thing you have to bear on mind is that you can fly, so stages aren't limited to the ground. Once you get it you'll start to love this game and its 40 or so stages. We would have loved there were more characters beyond the four showcased, and some way to customize them.
In the end, a nice facelift of sideview scrollers, an entertaining game suited for all ages whose only flaw is to land on a genre already worn out. This complete version comes free of ads.

For example, both companies have been in business for approximately 27 years and provide 24/7 emergency monitoring at the push of a button. Also, medical alert systems are the only business of both of us. However, when you compare the costs of Life Alert® versus Alert1, you'll see some significant differences as well.
We understand that situations can change for seniors and their families, so unlike our competitor, we offer monthly and annual service plans. Life Alert® offers a 3-year contract and includes a set up fee of either $96 or $198, depending on the product. We post our prices online so you understand your expenses upfront; you must call Life Alert® to get a price quote. Furthermore, Life Alert® only
allows 24 hours from time of purchase to cancel. At Alert1, you are free to cancel at any time and will receive your money back if returned within the first 30 days. Otherwise, Life Alert® requires a 3 year contract that can only be broken if the customer dies alone in his or her home.

72 HoursMature
A horror-themed webserial with comedic elements (sparingly used) that alternates characters on a chapter-by-chapter basis. It's the story of three contractors (plus a creepy guy who followed them to their job site) during the worst assignments of their respective lives. Also: creepy spiders!
Chapter 1: Sight Unseen
It's eight o'clock on a Friday night, which means the Blue Swan Diner is jammed, bustling, the small-scale 24-hour eatery equivalent of the ball drop in Times Square. There're hipsters sitting at the dessert bar with their coffees, high school students with or without lettered jackets, senior citizen bowling leagues, nuclear families with alternately smiling and sullen kids of different ages, mostly bored parents. It's all merging into a chorus of laughter and chatter, clinking silverware, the occasional dropped plate, broken glass.
I'm here for the eggs (poached), the coffee (unlimited refills) and the free wireless Internet. As my team's only proactive member, I am trying to find some freelance work, and it has been a staggeringly tedious process of sifting through message boards at more than eighty little hole-in-the-wall type websites, most of which have been graffitied with spam messages. I am starting to get bored, irritable. I haven't slept for 20 hours. The caffeine pills I took in the afternoon have worn off, they're not blocking the adenosine levels in my brain anymore, and my vision is starting to get swimmy. I shake two little blue pills out of the packet I keep in my jacket and crunch them between my teeth.
I decide to dick around for a few minutes while waiting for the pills to kick in. I watch the rain through the window. I stare blankly at the ceiling, inspecting it for water stains. Feeling suddenly artistic, I use a piece of toast to try and draw a happy face on my plate with leftover yolk, but I somehow end up with one of the angry smileys with the arched eyebrows. It leers at me.
Forty-five minutes go by. The pills have kicked in. I'm feeling edgy and jittery, but my brain is knife-blade sharp. I spin my laptop around to face me and tap a key, dispelling the flying toaster screensaver off to whatever hell it is that flying toasters eventually end up in. Fingers crossed, I click open my web browser's bookmark list and click the entry for fullmetalbracket.com, my go-to site for fast cash gained through very little physical effort. FMB has been down for about three hours—its extreme popularity means it's also extremely prone to server shutdowns.
The guy who owns this domain calls himself Handy, by the way, and the guy (or girl) is a total cipher. He operates one read-only message board where he posts lucrative, high-end side jobs for general contractors, easy gigs like cabinet installation or bathroom remodeling commissioned by people who (a) end up way overpaying for the work performed and (b) generally have the money to blow anyway, so I don't feel too too bad about taking it. He is obviously a fan of the films of Stanley Kubrick. But aside from that, no one knows who he is. He does not answer personal messages. Site memberships are invitation-only (Paul got one somehow) and the whole thing is almost self-consciously mysterious.
But the jobs are all reliable, and it looks like Handy did reboot the server. It must have been recent: I'm the only person online.
It feels strange, like I'm in an empty movie theater. I don't like it.
But there is one open job posting on the message board. I see the fee (5K) and the project timetable (72 hours worth of work). The post is a minute old. I grin and click the ACCEPT button, sight unseen, and skim the project summary. About 65% of the job is demo, a few walls here and there. Some wiring (networking cables, if I'm reading this right) and cleanup. And that's it.
I forward the link along to Paul at the office, along with a message telling him that I'll meet him and Ollie at the job site. "Bring the tools," I type. "And food," I add, an afterthought.
Handy's associates value their privacy, so any contractor who accepts a job through FMB goes in blind. Addresses aren't listed with the job specs. Contractors are directed to the job site via text messages sent to their smartphones, and anyone who reveals a job location publicly after the fact is blacklisted from FMB. I've seen it happen.
My phone buzzes at me with the first of several step-by-step directions—it's directing me to the highway. As I start packing up, my laptop bleats at me, indicating a new email. It's from Paul, who is claiming that he has a "bad feeling" about the job. He also informs me, in a postscript, that he doesn't think that Ollie's up to working this weekend because he is having one of his "episodes" and "just ate two pens." I click delete. Ollie eats pens all the time. It doesn't impact his work. And Paul is nervous about everything. He was nervous about a milkshake I bought him the other day, because he feared poison.
When I get to the job site—a ten-story corporate office—a freshly dead security guard is there to greet me. I feel a vibration from my jacket pocket. I pull the phone out of my pocket, study it.
It's a message from Handy. I feel honored and important until I see what it says. "Sorry," it reads.

LOS ANGELES — Ed Schultz tried to make amends for calling Laura Ingraham a "right-wing slut" on his radio show Tuesday.
"I am deeply sorry, and I apologize," said Schultz, who was suspended from his The Ed Show by MSNBC for his off-color remarks. "It was wrong, uncalled for and I recognize the severity of what I said. I apologize to you, Laura, and ask for your forgiveness."
Here is the epic groveling apology. Warning: This is a VERY graphic video that contains severe groveling.

Welcome to Nano-City.
When no one can die. How do you live?
Welcome to Nano-City.
At this time I should go over some background info for you, to help catch you up to speed.
Now before you entered the city, you recieved a shot, in that shot were "blank" state nano-machines, these will help insure your survival against almost anything, they go where they're needed and assist in your bodies natural ability to regenerate.
There are other starting state Nanites (another name for the nano-machines) that will be able to strength muscle tisues and improve electrical flow through the body they are called "Muscle" nanites and "Energy" nanites respectively.
Nanites only operate within the safety of the city dome, while in the city you are immortal. How you choose to exercise that immortality is up to you.
If you are an entry level program member your "blank" nanite count will be about 30 Trilion, that will be sufficient to regenerate from any type of damage in a matter of Hours.
If however you are one of the lucky winners of the super entry program, you will recieve almost 400 Trillion "blank" nanites, and 10 Billion of the "Muscle" and "Energy" types as our way of saying thank you for your perticipation in our program.
Remember the purpose of the city is as a testing ground for the nanites to see how immortallity actually affects everyday people, so while your in the city there are a few questions that you should ask yourself.
In a city where no one can die, how do you live?
Our studies have shown thus far that when the threat of death is removed humans actions are vastly different than when it existed.
A word of warning. A group of anti-society activists have found a way to deactivate the nanites in extreme situations, be weary of strangers offering quick hits of additional nanites as they may be leading you to your death, which when the nanites are deactivated is quite possible.
About Nanites abilities:
"blank" state, these are generic nanites that serve only one purpose, to supplement your regenerative capabilities to easily ten thousand times the normal human rate, they also oversee the healing process to ensure that you not only heal quickly, but also correctly.
"muscle" state, these actively restore your bodies muscles and strengthen the tissues, allowing for superior to standard human strength, speed and endurance. the more of this type of nanite, the stronger, and faster you become.
"energy" state, the most controversial, which seems silly on the surface as their function is the improve the flow of energy through your body. This however means that not only are your reflexes going to be improved exponentially, but the electrical activity in the brain is also improved. Note: this doesn't make you smarter, but it does mean that you can think faster, with only 1 Billion of these nanites an individual can think and act at twice the speed of someone without the energy nanites. The controversy of this nanite came about when an individual accrued 1 Trillion of these nanites. He was faster than a non-energy nanite individual could see. It wouldn't have been a problem, if it wasn't for the fact he was an activist. He is to date the only documented case of control deactivating an individuals nanites. Which, sadly, resulted in his death.

We are having a terrible time with spider mites this year in our
greenhouses due to the excessive heat early in the year. They have even
migrated to the hostas. How do you kill them!? We have tried Diazinon,
Cygon, Malithion, Avid, dormant oil spray, and insecticidal smoke bombs.
The damn things are invincible.

Our neighbor just came over and talked about getting together for the Holidays then the conversation immediately diverted to "Can't believe we're in December. Where does time go?" So true. Gosh, we're suddenly feeling a sense of panic, not for any shopping or holiday reason, but more because we're trying to enjoy December as much as we can.
Holidays are such a special time for us and we only have three weeks left? We're going to make the most out of our last days of 2014. You can count on that.
So we started with sitting down and finally perusing through some of our favorite cookbooks of the year. 2014 has been an incredible year for wonderful cookbooks written with such intimate storytelling and prose.
Ten Speed Press has produced some phenomenal cookbooks this year and one of our very favorites that they were so kind to send to us is David Lebovitz's My Paris Kitchen.
David's My Paris Kitchen book is beyond a cookbook, it's a personal journal filled with his witty and engaging stories, gorgeous photography and as always, inspiring recipes that always make us want to run into the kitchen.
When you begin reading the cookbook, David immediately transports you to his culinary world and intimate kitchen in Paris. David has always been really good at that. He takes you to another place and makes you *jealous* of him cooking and eating in one of the worlds most amazing cities. When we yearn for a quick escape to Paris, we head over to his awesome blog and are always satisfied with the virtual trip.
He's known for his fantastic pastries and ice cream recipes, but this book is filled with outstanding savories that show the breadth of talent and diversity of his kitchen skills. The first recipe we made, twice? This salted butter caramel-chocolate mousse, of course. No doubt, it's been a winner and after making it time and again, we're sure to have it for our December gatherings before this month comes to a halt.
David's salted butter caramel chocolate mousse is rich, flavorful, fluffy and beyond amazing. Promise us you'll make it. Twice, or maybe three times?
Some other stand-out cookbooks that Ten Speed Press shared with us were just mind blowing. We were just drawn in to some of their cookbook that it was hard to not get off the couch. Sometimes, cuddling up to a great cookbook on a lazy Sunday afternoon beats a day of Sunday football. Well, unless the Patriots are playing, of course.
A New Napa Cuisine: This cookbook is breathtaking and from the moment you flip through the first page. The recipes are precise, original, gorgeous, very thoughtful and approachable. Each recipe is an ode to nature and it's story.
It's a coffee-table-keeper and you're immediately drawn to all the stunning photography and exquisite recipes that are works of art.
Love the feel of the fabric on the book. It's so unique, we can't get our hands off of it.
The Slanted Door cookbook. Another winner by Chef Charles Phan and this time, it's chock full of recipes that we can't get enough of when we're eating at his San Francisco award winning restaurant.
But this time, we get to make it ourselves and not to have hop on a plane. Can't wait to make his Vietnamese Chicken Salad, Crispy Rice Cakes and Shrimp on Sugar Cane.
There's so many more recipes we love, just gotta head to the gym to make more stomach room.
Bread Revolution by Peter Reinhart. He's one of our bread hero's and we've already bought three of his books over the last 5 years and have learned a ton from him. He's a master in bread making and simplifies the process down to a simple science that everyone who has a desire to make homemade bread, can accomplish.
He's given us the confidence to make bread on a weekly basis. We've already bookmarked his: Sprouted Whole Wheat Bread, Whole Wheat Ciabatta and Sprouted Straun Bread.
Flour + Water : Pasta. We love homemade pasta! In fact, we just made some last night for dinner and it was inhaled in less than 10 minutes.
If you're into homemade pasta making, eating, sharing, feasting and devouring, then this book is for you.
Next on our pasta dinner nights are Thomas's : Tagliatelle Bolognese, Burrata Triangle with Preserved Lemon, Summer-Squash and Mint. Ready to inhale and devour.
Hope you all get a chance to grab a copy of these amazing cookbooks. Let's all stay busy in the kitchen!

Salted Butter Caramel-Chocolate Mousse
Yield: Serves 6
Total Time: 1 hour
Recipe adapted and shared from My Paris Kitchen with permission by Ten Speed Press and David Lebovitz. We've made this quite a few times and love the recipe to extremes. As with most dessert making, for the recipe to be at its best and how it is intended, be sure to get the ingredients to the right stages when making the mousse (the caramel to the correctly cooked stage and the egg whites whipped to proper stiff peaks and not over whipped). Things can change quickly when cooking the caramel, so make sure to have all the ingredients ready when you start cooking the sugar.
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons (45g) unsalted butter, cubed
- 3/4 cup (180ml) heavy cream
- 6 ounces (170g) bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt, preferably fleur de sel
- optional- fresh berries for garnish
- Evenly place the sugar in a wide saucepan. Heat over medium heat. As it begins to liquefy at the edges, use a heatproof spatula to gently drag the liquefied sugar toward the center. At this point make sure not to leave it, the sugar will change quickly and you risk burning it. Continue cooking, stirring very gently, until the sugar is melted and caramelized. Continue cooking (caution-caramel will change color very quickly now) until the caramel is a deep amber color, just begins to smoke, and has a slight burnt smell.
- Remove the caramel from the heat and quickly whisk in the butter pieces, stirring until melted (make sure to stir into the edges of the saucepan with a heatproof spatula to get all the caramel bits). Gradually whisk in the cream, stirring until all the little bits of caramel are completely melted. If everything was well stirred when the butter was added there shouldn't be any hard caramel bits left over, however if some were missed, you can strain the mixture to remove them.
- Once smooth, stir in the chocolate until it is melted and the mixture is smooth. Scrape the mixture into a large bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Once the mixture is cooled, whisk in the egg yolks. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites to stiff peaks.
- Fold 1/3 of the whipped egg whites into the chocolate, adding in the flaky salt. Fold in the remaining whipped egg whites until no white streaks remain. Divide the mousse into serving glasses or a decorative serving bowl, and chill for at least 8 hours. Serve chilled straight up or with fresh berries.

Title: His Hobby
For: LJ community scrubsfichallng #4: I'm Not Cleaning That
Author: Kipli
Email: Kipli at livejournal dot com
Series: Scrubs
Pairing: GEN with minor-Cox/JD
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Not my 'verse. They just talk to me.
Summary: The Janitor expounds on his Scooter tormenting hobby... only to lose it.
Notes: Silliness while my net was down. Not necessarily in the same 'verse as my other stuff. Short and simple. )
His Hobby
I like to follow Scooter around. You know, track his movements. Get to know where he likes to go and when. Not only is it fun--because hey what else do I have to do around here, clean?--but it helps me plan out and stage a number of 'surprises' for him. Booby traps are very difficult to plant if you don't know where your subject will be at any given moment.
Hey, everyone has to have a hobby. And seeing him scramble away from me like a little animal is a nice dose of stress relief. Stress from what, you might ask? I will have you know that these floors are very demanding co-workers. They take and they take and they never give back. Well, except for one. Third floor, west wing. Ah, Carlos. He's a good man, er, floor.
Anywho, I like to be sure Scooter hasn't changed his habits on me, so I make it a point to track him at varying points of the day, each day of the week. Just for small amounts of time. Never long enough for him to notice my presence. I don't want him to change his habits on account of my being there.
He's had a fairly set and predictable schedule for a while now. Baring any catastrophe happening in the hospital, he does pretty much the same thing each day, no matter when he starts his shift. Which is weird, because he still eats breakfast when he comes in for a night shift, even though it's dinner time. Or well, a muffin anyway. That's considered a breakfast food, right?
He usually spends the first half of his shift getting reacquainted with his patients, talking to Blonde Doctor and Scary Nurse Lady, following up with his patients, and getting snarled at by Mean Doctor. Sometimes Scooter catches me when I accidentally laugh at Mean Doctor's brilliant verbal harassment of him but I can't help myself. The man is a master of what he does. I just have to be careful not to draw Mean Doctor's attention to myself. That can spell trouble.
As for the latter half of his day, he usually collects all the results from his testing, giggles and gal pals with Baldie, gives out whatever news he has to his patients, and gets snarled at again by Mean Doctor before being dragged off by him to see to something he didn't do right the first time.
I don't usually stick around Scooter for very long when Mean Doctor is nearby. For one, Scooter is getting plenty of punishment at that moment and, except for the rare occasion, needs no more britches shrinking right then. And for another, as I said before, it is Trouble with a capital T to gain Mean Doctor's focus. My policy of calling my recon missions short whenever Mean Doctor was around only affected about fifteen, maybe twenty percent of my missions. A minor blow. Until lately.
Every time I start to trail Scooter when he's alone, Mean Doctor inevitably shows up. They banter. Mean Doctor does his usual name calling. And then they disappear behind closed doors: elevators, patient rooms, supply closets, you name it. It would take me a good portion of my days usually to find Scooter again, and he was usually still around Mean Doctor. I chalked it up to bad luck for the first few disappearing acts. After all, the hunt was not always successful.
But then... I was up on the third floor, east wing. Chonci. Not nearly as polite and helpful as Carlos. Anyway, I was on my knees scrubbing at a stain that was either dried coffee or dried feces, and from the smell of it, I really wasn't sure either way. Chonci was not cooperating either as it wasn't coming up easy. I'd stayed late to work at it till it did come up.That's when I heard Scooter's distinctive giggle from around the corner and slightly down the hallway. Ah, perfect! A wet brown stain for him into slide over. Finally, I'd get my surprise in on him this week. And I hadn't even planned it out!
Only, his giggling stopped and I could hear the distinct sound of ruffling clothing. Had he hooked up with another overly desperate nurse? A low moan from him had me sliding forward on my knees to peek around the corner.
The image will be forever burned into my brain and I'd... I'd rather not describe it in so much detail. Sufficient to say, Mean Doctor was not currently at that moment being mean to Scooter, though he had him pinned up against the side-corridor's wall.
So, this was why they were always around each other now, why I couldn't find any moments of Scooter alone.
Damn it all!
When they broke apart, I jerked my head back around the corner.
What with this new development, I'll have no opportunity at all to 'surprise' Scooter if he's always with Mean Doctor.
Sneaky. Very sneaky, my friend.
Still hoping to catch them off guard, I slid back and left the wet stain in their path. But as they rounded the corner, Mean Doctor grabbed Scooter by the waist and pulled him up and away from the wet spot. "Watch it now, Newbie"
Scooter blushed as he noticed me and my glare. But then my glare was spotted by Mean Doctor and he stopped them, keeping his hold around Scooter. "Lurch! Better find a new hobby... This one's taken"
All I could do was smile at them as they turned away. "What was that, sir? A new hobby? Why I have plenty of hobbies"
Mean Doctor just waved back at me as they walked away.
So now... I'm really pretty bored. A new crop of interns doesn't arrive until the fall. I tried to resume my recon missions on Scooter but he is always with Mean Doctor now and Mean Doctor always notices when I'm around.
Maybe I could take up International High Stakes Scrabble...

Short-term lender Cash Store Financial Services Inc. is taking some small steps to mollify upset shareholders, but still has a long way to go.
About two weeks ago, mutual fund company Montrusco Bolton started a public campaign for changes at Cash Store, saying "enough is enough" after the stock fell by more than half in the past year and dividends vanished. Montrusco put three proposals forward that will be voted on at the company's annual meeting on Feb. 7. It called for the company to look at selling stores outside Canada to focus on its home market, demanded that Cash Store cancel a New York listing to save cash, and finally to separate the roles of chairman and chief executive officer, both of which are currently held by founder Gordon Reykdal.Report Typo/Error

And They Said Romance Was Dead
The average cliques of the highschool system appeared to exist at college too. The populars, the chavs, the emos and the moshers - all gathered in their own groups. I was just another shy girl that was moving up to college. My brother saw me and charged over.
"First day then Lucy? What do you think so far?" My brother, Bean, said opening his arns wide. His name was Mathhew, but since primary school, everybody called him Bean.
"It's ok. No new friends yet..." I looked around for anybody that I recongnised and came up blank.
"Oi Bean!" A deep voice called behind me. "Don't be chatting up the newbies on their first day!" The owner of the deep voice stepped past me and stood next to my brother.
"Jamie!" Bean flicked his hair behind his shoulder - his long blond hair held tightly coiled ringlets, completely natural. The only time we ever tried to straighen them, his hair touched the ground. "This is my sister, Lucy." Bean waved his hand to indicate me.
"Hi." I smiled slightly and he grinned back.
"Nice to meet you Lucy. Jamie, please don't shorten the name." He said, offering his hand. I shook it tightly, and his grin widened. "Oh hell we've got art. See you in there Bean! Bye Luce." He slapped my bro on the back, shot me another grin and jogged off, yelling for one of the moshers to wait up.
"God, Jamie's excitable today." Bean turned back to face me, sniping my timetable out of my hand. "You're kidding! You smart little -" He started but I took the timetable out of his hands.
"Yeah I'm taking the same subjects as you. You knew I would. I love art and music." I said, commiting the room number to memory before folding it into my pocket.
"How did you manage to get then to put you in straight for second year courses?" Bean sounded shocked. "I'm in M4 for art first."
"What?" I pulled it back out of my pocket. Sure enough, the room number for my first lesson was M4.
"Come on, we need to get up there." Bean grabbed my elbow and pulled me towards a corridor. He quickly let go when we turned into a group of people. "First staircase you see on the left." He said, pushing me to the left wall and stepping in behind me.
Walking against the "traffic", I pushed up a staircase and Bean laughed behind me.
"It looks like Miss Reef is waiting for you!" He said, opening a door I hadn't noticed and a teacher stepped out.
"Thanks for bringing Lucy up here Mathhew. Go sit down and I'll explain to the class in a minute why we have a new student in the group." The tall black haired woman said, and Bean stepped through the door briskly. And the long winded explanation began...

text: Culture 6 September 1999 Her own woman Art 1 - John Henshall meets one of Britain's best young painters Sign up for our weekly email * Rosie Snell is an artist in a genuinely enviable position. Her huge, stunning works of robustly realist art are in such demand that she has serious difficulty in amassing enough of them at her London studio actually to mount any exhibitions. They sell as she produces them, which creates another difficulty; they enter private collections and she often has only transparencies to remind her of how her singular oeuvre is developing. She is not complaining, though; since I first met her and wrote her up for one of the art glossies, her prices have rocketed five times over. I predicted then that she would certainly become one of Britain's next true art stars. Her new solo selling show at Berwick-upon-Tweed, which then tours to London, certainly confirms this. She is just 28 yet paints with the confidence and maturity of one twice her age. Once seen, her stark, even startling coast-, land- and railscapes are never forgotten. She was the Berwick Gymnasium Gallery fellowship holder for 1999. By early summer she had done her reconnaissance in the beauteous little settlement by the bay and points north and had retired to the capital to paint from the numerous photographs she took in the Borders, Scotland, Orkney and the Carlisle area. The results are riveting, romantic and rigorously different from most other art being made in Britain now. When Snell paints from a photograph of an old (or occasionally active) MoD installation, a lighthouse, a pillbox, a railyard or an industrial site, she scrapes away absolutely all superfluous detail. People are the first to go. Ocean or site-side detritus gets equally short shrift. Buildings cast shadows but we are never quite sure where the sun is coming from. Since I first saw her work it has continued to improve, becoming more minimalist than ever. "I suppose what's happening is that it's getting more and more austere," she says. She is quite right: indeed some of her creations are so real, so raw, as to blend austerity with outright asperity. Snell was always fascinated by machines, man-made structures and mysteriously unidentifiable mechanisms. Early on she considered engineering, but, happily, art won the day. She grew up in Littlehampton, West Sussex, and studied art at Loughborough and Norwich. She did her fine art MA in the Fine City, whose art school is one of our best, the London greats included. She won the Royal Bath & West art award. I say won it; by all accounts she walked it. She went on to gain a first residency in London, a city she now really likes, though originally she was concerned it might be too "fast lane". She became the youngest artist to be shortlisted for the NatWest prize, our richest. She came to the attention of Charles Saatchi. The man whom some call "il collectorono" snapped up a dozen of her works. She may star in one of the "Neurotic Realist" shows at his London gallery next year. Snell is entirely her own woman but will admit her admiration for realist trailblazers such as Edward Hopper. I also see traces of the German photographers Bernd and Hiller Becher and their star pupil Thomas Struth. A striking feature of her work is that, for all the ruthless paring down of detail, she obviously loves to paint plants, trees and crops in painstaking detail. She has painted at East Anglian airbases such as RAF Mildenhall and the old USAF Bentwaters. As we gaze at her superbly formalised planes parked on their lonesome runways, lush fields in the foreground sprout poppies and other wild flowers. The Italians have a verb, frusciare, for the noise that plants and foliage make when blowing on the wind. We hear that "frush, frush" regularly in Snell's works. At Berwick, must-buys include an outstanding picture of wind turbines at Cromarty, north-east Scotland, marching stealthily across rock-hard, snow-covered terrain. There is a "sea of planes" picture from Mildenhall in Suffolk. Industrial towers of some kind ("I'm not sure what they are: I knew I had to paint them . . . ") at the old ICI plant in Ellesmere Port on the Mersey evince a mesmeric, purposeful unity. Snell visited the burgeoning Millennium Dome site at Greenwich in south-east London. She painted the cranes. "Yes, I took the Dome out. People can see that anyway. I liked the cranes myself . . . [laughs] . . . they're good cranes!" Her favourite picture is a perfectly bizarre one: a decoy tank at a live MoD training ground near Carlisle: "I think they practise firing missiles at them. I thought it was great. I'm not sure what other people might think. They must get through a lot of decoys like that, mustn't they?" When I met Snell in Norwich, where she thoroughly enjoyed the bohemian art scene, I found an immediately likeable, somewhat retiring woman; she is the very antithesis of the stereotypical self-publicising loudmouth (often with a fraction of her talent) who gives modern art in Britain a bad name. Nonetheless, when talking to her about her Berwick show, I suggested that a little more assertiveness might not go amiss. The artmarts are the fame game, after all. She chuckled and said she could only be herself. It is just as well, then, that she is so supremely talented. Fleet Street is a hard old street. From what I've seen, Cork Street's far harder.

The Elven soldiers were still huffing their way forward, the weight from the soldier finally starting to effect them. Conrad was still out cold, nothing more then dead weight in the two elves arms. As they neared the Healer's tents, one of the nurses just walked out, trying to get a breath of fresh air from hte stench of the wounded, dead, and dieing that filled the tent, and spotted Conrad being pulled along. Rushing forward, she stops the two soldiers. "What happ- Who is this?" The nurse asked, not at all knowing of Conrad. The Elf holding his legs shrugged."YOur guess is as good as ours at this point. We found him fighting the Stygians, using strange weapons. Hell, he took a blow that would kill you or me, even with one of the best helmets we can make, and is still alive, unconscience, but alive." The elf stated, walking forward again, bringing Conrad's still form to an empty bed in the tent, the nurse in tow.

It's not all the time that you discover you need a replacement Radiator for your car or truck. Your Cadillac dealership isn't the only place to locate the best repair parts to fix your Catera. Auto enthusiasts appreciate the luxury built into each Cadillac, and understand that only top quality repair Catera parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done. While it's not hard to locate replacement parts for Cadillac vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to repair your automobile.
Your vehicle uses liquid coolant to maintain a constant temperature in the engine, and the cooling liquid needs to travel through the radiator before it can do its job. The heat produced by the combustion process gets absorbed by an ethylene glycol based liquid, and that coolant has to enter your Cadillac Catera radiator through the top and flow down to the bottom so that it can reduce its temperature. When it goes out through the lower hose and up to the water pump, it re-enters the engine and can now absorb more heat. Your Cadillac Catera relies on this process happening on a continuous basis in order to maintain regular operations.
Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and save time and money on all your upcoming repairs. Given all the hassles associated with repairing damage to your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make purchasing it easy. When your Cadillac needs the best replacement Radiator, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. Need 2001, 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997 Cadillac Catera Radiator parts? We've got them right here.

The U.K.'s Birmingham Fruit Market has achieved the goal of zero landfill waste following the implementation of a new service delivered by waste management provider Biffa, based in Buckinghamshire, U.K.
Biffa, a provider of collection, treatment, recycling and technology-driven energy generation services for commercial and municipal waste, is collecting food and dry mixed recycling (DMR) as well as general waste and wood for Birmingham Fruit Market.
As the market commits to cut waste and boost its environmental performance, on average, more than 3,300 metric tons of food and DMR waste as well as cardboard, wood and general waste will be collected under the deal each year.
Commenting on the news, Biffa Group Sales and Marketing director Bob Barltrop says, "It is encouraging to see such iconic businesses as the Birmingham Fruit Market working with Biffa. It is a clear demonstration of the importance the food industry places upon environmental responsibility. It also makes very good business sense: Landfill tax costs continue to rise and increasingly, collection contracts such as this will be the most economical way for businesses of all sizes to deal with food and DMR as well as general waste."
The food waste collected by Biffa will be processed at Poplars anaerobic digestion (AD) plant, at Cannock, Staffordshire, U.K., where it is turned into water, fertilizer and green energy.
Operated by Biffa, Poplars is one of the largest food AD plants in the country and has the capacity to process 120,000 metric tons of food waste every year, producing enough energy for 10,000 homes, Biffa says.
DMR waste will be processed at the Aldridge materials recycling facility, a state of the art facility that has the processing capacity of up to 300,000 metric tons annually, Biffa says.

Cloudberry Kingdom
- RATING: T - Teen
- DEVELOPER(S): Pwnee Studios
- PUBLISHER: Ubisoft
- RELEASE DATE: Aug 1, 2013
Unhappily ever after? That's how it starts. The Orb resurfaces and the classic characters return. Kobbler with his mania and the Princess with her endless boredom; it's only a matter of time before Bob, our hero, shows up to put order back to madness. Three powers struggle for victory and the fate of Cloudberry Kingdom hangs in the balance. What will become of the retired hero, Bob? Will saving the Princess one last time win her love? Could true love ever stop Kobbler and the power of the Orb? No, probably not. But hey, it's worth a shot.
Designed to be "the platformer to end all platformers" from the design team at Pwnee Studios, Cloudberry Kingdom is an innovative and endlessly challenging platformer that adapts to your skill level. Thanks to a dynamic AI system designed around the creator's study of platforming games — flow, spacing, rhythm, player expectation — Cloudberry can provide a very simple and enjoyable platforming experience for inexperienced players or can ratchet up the challenge to insane (but always beatable) levels of hair-raising, face-melting difficulty.

Study objectives: The prevalence of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in gefitinib-naive lung cancer patients is higher in adenocarcinomas, in women, and in Japanese. To further investigate the prevalence of EGFR mutations in relation to ethnic and geographic factors, we evaluated EGFR mutations in a series of Taiwanese patients with primary lung adenocarcinomas who had never been treated with gefitinib.
Design and methods: We retrospectively studied 35 primary lung adenocarcinoma samples for mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain of EGFR; exons 18, 19, and 21 were analyzed by nested polymerase chain reaction and automated sequencing. Clinicopathologic information was obtained from patient records and pathology reports. Correlation between EGFR mutations and patient characteristics, including sex, smoking history, and pathologic subtypes, were evaluated by using the χ2 test and logistic regression analysis.
Results: Heterozygous EGFR mutations were detected in 17 of 35 patients (48%). Missense mutations in exon 21 (13 of 17 patients, 76%) were the most frequent mutations detected. EGFR mutations were more frequent in women (13 of 18 patients [72%]) than in men (4 of 17 patients [23%]; p = 0.004), more frequent in nonsmokers (14 of 21 patients [66%]) than in current smokers (3 of 14 patients [21%]; p = 0.009), and when any degree of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC) was present (14 of 21 patients [66%]) compared with pure adenocarcinoma (3 of 14 patients [21%]; p = 0.009). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that female gender (odds ratio [OR], 10.913; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.778 to 66.97; p = 0.01) and BAC, including adenocarcinomas with any bronchioloalveolar features (OR, 9.708; 95% CI, 1.464 to 64.393; p = 0.019), were significantly associated with EGFR mutations.
Conclusions: In our series, female sex and bronchioloalveolar pathologic subtype predicted the presence of EGFR mutations in lung adenocarcinomas, and the high frequency of EGFR mutations supports the hypothesis that genetic backgrounds and/or environmental factors may affect the pathogenesis of certain lung cancers.

It's a case of the dueling studies.
Several weeks ago the city's aviation department released a study that predicted thousands of new jobs and a huge impact on the local economy if the terminal is built. Now, United says in reality, it's the complete opposite.
United says the Hobby expansion would actually cost Houston 3,700 jobs and negatively impact the economy to the tune of nearly $300 million.
John Gebo is Sr. Vice President of Financial Planning at United.
"Houston has built a very, very strong connecting hub complex at Intercontinental over the course of the last 40 years and what that hub complex brings to the city is for the ability for airlines, including United, to offer a larger number of flights and a larger number of direct destinations than would be possible from the population of the city alone."
Intercontinental has been Houston's only international airport since 1969 and is United's largest hub. The airline has started on a new $700 million expansion at the big airport. Gebo says moving some of that business to Hobby would force United to cut flights at Bush.
"Airlines in general make about 3 percent in a good year, at least that's been the recent history. And so what that means is for every 100 passengers on an aircraft, about 3 of those people are actually contributing profitability. So if you siphon off a very small number of passengers from the main connecting hub, the result is that the entire flight becomes unprofitable and needs to be relocated to another airport or another city where it can do better."
Gebo says the airport system's study was what he called "terribly misleading" and was based on faulty assumptions. He says customers who might like an international option on the south side of town would actually lose options if the new terminal is built.
"We'd like to be able to offer convenient departure times and convenient flights to everyone as would Southwest and as would all the other carriers that fly out of Intercontinental but I think what I would tell the customers on the south side of the city is that you will get more service to more destinations with a strong hub than with a split hub, so while you might get some additional destinations from the Hobby expansion, you'll lose more destinations from Intercontinental and on the whole, the city will not have as many options as it does today."
Southwest has countered that competition will actually lower the cost of international flights and benefit customers. City council is expected to make a decision on the expansion plan by the end of the month.

China: gold demand at highs
According to data from the China Gold Association today, China gold consumption and production extended to record levels as the bearish equity market spurrs demand of jewelry and bars. Usage surged by 41% to 1,176 metric tons in 2013 from the year before. Output rose by 6.2% to 428.16 tons, making China the largest producer for a seventh year in a row.
"As the domestic market offers little alternative choices - the equity market underperformed while the government discouraged investments in the real-estate sector - more of the growing wealth is looking to gold as a means to store value," economists at Capital Futures Co. in Beijing explain.
"The surge in Chinese gold consumption has helped to limit price declines," analysts at Shanghai Leading Investment Management Co say. "If Chinese demand is sustained, it will be a long-term bullish factor."
Bullion price hit a 3-month high of $1287.5 per ounce on Tuesday.

They'll still set their own prices, and won't share proprietary info from clients. But CBS President of Network Sales Jo Ann Ross will lead an effort to "coordinate and share resources" that will "support strategies that bring value to advertisers," the companies say. The change takes place today, in time for the upcoming upfront ad sales efforts by CBS and the CBS-Warner Bros venture. The CW EVP of Sales Rob Tuck will still report to CW President Mark Pedowitz, but "with added direction from Ross" on the collaboration. "The CW is part of the CBS family, so we can seamlessly collaborate and coordinate to maximize value for its clients," Ross says. "Rob and his team are well-respected throughout the industry, and we're looking forward to working with them as we head into this year's upfront marketplace."
CBS And The CW To Coordinate Ad Sales
2 Comments
I can't believe this is happening to the CW. What happened? Are you telling me that 'likes' and 're-tweets' aren't enough anymore? Are you telling me that a broadcast network like the CW can no longer survive with their ad revenue when their shows are bringing in ratings (demo and otherwise) that are microscopic?
Is that what you are telling me CBS? Is that it? Because if that is it, well, let me just tell you, we at CW don't need your 'charity.' You just wait CBS – some day, you'll be coming to us at CW for your 'likes' and 're-tweets'. Then, we'll know who's boss around here.
Who needs ad revenue anymore anyway?! Right?! That's for 'grandpa television'. Who needs television ad revenue? Not us, not CW. We're rolling into the future – we've got 'likes'.
This reminds me of what happened in Canada. When CTV (our equivalent to CBS) bought the much-smaller A-Channel network, eventually they decided to change all the A-Channel affiliates into CTV2. So now CTV buys as much American shows as it can and puts what it can't fit on CTV onto CTV2.

yes, it was a good summer. there's 3 of us on board plus a dog, which is one less than last year. the BC coast is an incredible place for touring.
starting from anacortes, WA, we can bypass the busy san juan's in 2 days, enter the gulf islands via plumper sound and cruise on up to nanaimo. this year that stretch took 6 days. after crossing the strait of georgia to the mainland side things start to get really good. the coastline become less developed, with craggy cliffs and deep fjords.
we hoped to make it to desolation sound, but the amazing southerlies that took us this far turned on us near malaspina strait. not being especially fond of motoring just to fulfill expectations, we turned up jervis inlet on a following breeze. at the head is the famous princess louisa inlet, which is any bit as gorgeous as expected. back out in the strait a week later we bumped north a little further on some fickle SE'lies before rounding the north end of texada and cruising down its long and exposed (for us) west side and on home more or less the same way we came.
